Weekly Love Horoscopes for the Week of March 17th

Your mind will focus on achieving a sense of Nirvana with your partner thanks to Mercury’s ingress into dreamy Pisces on Monday. By Saturday, when Mercury connects to Neptune, you will surely be in a blissful mindset about love. The old saying, “Love is blind, deaf and dumb,” may apply here however — so don’t forget to temper your idealism with a reality check. Aside from this, there will be a sexy link between Venus and Uranus on Tuesday that should help you feel as if you’ve got at least a little slice of heaven in the romance department this week.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Romantic fantasies may be all consuming this week. You may enjoy dreaming up stories in your mind about the perfect love or about a relationship that you know will remain only in your dreams. There’s nothing wrong with a little reverie every now and then, but don’t forget to pay attention to the love potential that’s right in front of you. In fact, on Tuesday you may have a close encounter with someone who takes your breath away. Someone who is real!

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

If you’ve been feeling a subtle vibe that your boss (or someone you respect connected to your career) is attracted to you, it may not be your imagination. In fact, on Tuesday it’s possible that this person will come out openly about his or her feelings. Interestingly enough, you may reciprocate the affinity, and if so, you’ll have an interesting dilemma on your hands. Dare you entertain the thought of a love connection with a person who has this much influence over your professional life? Only you can answer that question.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Don’t be surprised if you experience a sexy romantic encounter with someone with a background quite different than your own. In fact, it will be this person’s exotic nature that stimulates you most! On Tuesday, the love planet Venus, now in quirky Aquarius, will be at a sizzling angle to Uranus, the planet of surprises. You will be most attracted to someone who marches to the beat of his own drummer. This week, you might even have an opportunity to make beautiful music together.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Your sex appeal will be at an all-time high this week and the best part is that everyone around you will notice! Your most attractive quality, by far, will be that you’re not afraid to explore deep emotions. On Tuesday you might even discover that someone you respect approaches you for advice about his or her intimate problems. If this happens, you’ll provide inspirational and original advice. Regardless, Venus continues to move through your erotic 8th house until April 5. You’re sexy and you know it!

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may want to explore a sexual fantasy or two with your partner this week — or at least strike up an open conversation with them! On Monday Mercury will enter the area of your chart that rules intimacy, creating a mental climate for you to think and speak more about your most private desires. On Tuesday, Venus will receive a shock wave from Uranus. Your partner may surprise you with an open invitation to explore new romantic territory that you previously thought was “off limits.” Enjoy the magic carpet ride!

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Expect communication between you and your partner to improve dramatically this week. In fact, after Monday (and until April 7) you and your mate will enjoy a phase where you’re not only hearing one another … but you are truly listening as well. On Saturday you might share hopes and dreams for your future that you have previously held back from expressing. Much to your delight, you’re likely to discover that your lover holds the very same sentiments.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Your love life has been anything but boring. With Uranus moving through your partnership sector, rubbing elbows with Pluto, the agent of transformation, you’re in an ongoing process of relationship revolution. If you and your mate are doing well, then this will stimulate you to get out of any relationship rut and put the spice back into your lives. If, however, you’re feeling repressed, this might stimulate you enough to make a change. On Tuesday there may be tempting and sexy affair potential. For better or worse.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You and a sweetheart may decide to embark on a creative project together this week. Indeed, your imagination will reach new heights after Monday and lasting until April 7. Consider working on an artistic endeavor with your lover that you both find pleasurable. This hobby may consume both of you for weeks to come. On Saturday you might enjoy a very special conversation that leaves you each convinced that the other is a perfect soul mate. This week, relationship bliss can be yours!

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Salacious affair potential is all over your chart these days! If you’re single or in an open relationship, this energy may feel quite stimulating. But if you’re in a committed relationship, you may find yourself in a quandary. Sudden attractions may boost your ego but acting on them may destroy an otherwise solid partnership. If you’re feeling bored with your mate this week try spicing things up by leaving sexy text messages or a seductive note. Phone sex might really amp up the fun as well!

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

No matter where you stand in a relationship, this week you will focus on the positive. An optimistic outlook can make all the difference and your ability to cancel out negative thinking after Monday will be incredible. On Saturday you may be especially wistful about romantic matters, and might be inspired to write a love letter or poem to a special someone. At the very least, it’ll be easy for you to express your true feelings.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You’re on fire when it comes to romantic potential these days. With Venus, the planet of love, moving through your sign until April 5, you’re essentially the “Belle of the Ball.” On Tuesday Venus will make a scintillating link to Uranus, now in your communication sector. You may suddenly profess your feelings for someone special, or hear a declaration of love from a sweetheart. If single, your neighbor might surprise you with an invitation to go out on a date. Go for it!

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your mind will fill with romantic fantasies this week. It’s possible, however, that your partner will think you’re too caught up in fairytale antics. It appears that you will communicate more about perfect love and happy endings, but this might not be the reality behind your current relationship status. If you pretend that everything is enchanting while there are problems brewing, this will only hurt your union even more. If you’re really in love, then you’d better keep it real.

The Daily Horoscopes for Monday, March 17th

Maintaining our equilibrium can be rather tricky today because we are misled by how easy it looks. Thankfully, the pleasure-seeking Libra Moon enables us to balance what we want with the needs of others. However, our desires warp our perceptions and confuse our thoughts now that cerebral Mercury enters dreamy Pisces. Meanwhile, sensual Venus forms an irritating alignment with extravagant Jupiter, making it nearly impossible to set clear limits.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

People seem to be going out of their way to be extra nice to you today, but their actions might not have the impact they expect. Even if you appreciate their efforts, you find it difficult to trust the motives of others, making it difficult to receive their gifts with an open mind. However, your fears may be more of a statement about you than anyone else. But you don’t need to go to extremes and ignore all your concerns. Being aware of your own resistance allows you to see the best in everyone.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You approach your duties with an optimistic attitude today, assuming your most sincere efforts will produce positive results. Unfortunately, tangible production could fall short of your intentions because other people don’t seem as industrious as you are now. You may try to gain efficiency by working on your own, but this option might not be a viable one. Don’t be too concerned about losing ground; no one will fault you if you’re doing the best job you can.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

Concentrating on your chores may be an uphill battle today because you would rather be amusing yourself doing just about anything else. Although you might be able to successfully pull off a quick escape now, you won’t likely have enough time to indulge in the pleasures you seek. But be careful; if you choose fun over work, it’s quite possible you will get caught and then have to pay the price for being irresponsible. It’s not worth trading long-term satisfaction for short-term pleasure.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You’re lost in your own thoughts now and you can make yourself seem so invisible that others don’t even notice your temporary self-absorption. You’re capable of keeping up appearances today while also creating extra time to reflect on personal issues. But sustaining this type of duality is exhausting. If your temper grows short, take a break from your contemplation and channel your energy into something more tangible.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You might be quite the diplomat today, voluntarily placing yourself in the middle of a conflict because you believe you can help. However, you may be quite annoyed that others are wasting time arguing when you just want to steer them into a more harmonious place. Your current strength comes from the fact that you aren’t willing to take sides now, so listen to every individual’s story while focusing on the common ground and not the differences. Let your natural generosity of spirit be your guide.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Your power of concentration is one of your strengths, but today might be an exception to the rule. You may have your share of details to manage, yet your mind can be rather uncooperative now. Don’t set yourself up for failure by trying to accomplish too much. Instead, give yourself permission to waste a bit of time in idle fantasy. Your dreams inspire you to reach your potential in the long run.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

A combination of cosmic influences encourages you to join the party today, even if you know better. Thankfully, you have no problem now thinking one way while acting another. But even if you are comfortable with this inconsistency, it still could be stressful for others — especially if your indulgent actions affect them negatively. Oddly enough, turning down the invitation and being responsible ultimately brings you the most satisfaction. There are many roads that can lead to joy as long as your heart is in the right place.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You might feel as if an era is coming to a close, yet you’re not quite ready to step into the next one yet. You may even be somewhat disoriented as you try to figure out where you are going. Although you can be uncomfortable when there are too many loose ends, it still could take a while longer before you get the closure that you need. Be patient while walking in both worlds; this transformation is a work in progress.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Staying present in the here and now can be challenging if you can’t take your mind off the myriad of possibilities ahead. But all your weighing and judging won’t make the future any more certain. Ironically, the more you ponder the decisions you must make, the muddier they seem. Nevertheless, it’s still better to initiate some action today than to continue endless rounds of analysis.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Career issues are in the spotlight today, but your frustration might build as you find it increasingly difficult to resolve a current dilemma. It seems as if everyone is telling you to make your choice, but you may see validity to more than one possible path. Even if you feel anxious under the pressure, don’t succumb to the outside influence of individuals with a special interest. Stick to your position of neutrality for a while longer with as much grace as you can muster.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may feel the stress nearly everywhere you turn today, but oddly enough you seem to be unaffected by the noisy drama playing out around you. However, this doesn’t mean that you are sailing along without any worries at all. Simply stated, you’re in your airy element now and you can clearly discern what’s happening in your immediate environment, enabling you to react efficiently. There’s no room for self-doubt; just follow your instincts and you won’t go wrong.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your intuition allows you to perceive things that are extrasensory. Unfortunately, you could fall into your own trap today by allowing your desires to fill in the missing details as you stare into a foggy landscape. It’s better to acknowledge what you can’t see and leave it at that. But you’re tempted to dream up a best-case scenario, project it onto your perceptions and then confuse your fantasy with reality. Being aware of your feelings can prevent your preferences from leading you astray.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for March 17th

Every so often, the universe provides a mixture of challenging and favorable alignments in a 24-hour time-period and you wind up scratching your head due to the complex nature of the day. Right now Venus makes an off-kilter, 150-degree tie with Jupiter (11:03AM) — reminding you to avoid overdoing a good thing. A similar, 150-degree link from the Sun to Pallas (12:01PM) reiterates the first theme and provides a warning to steer clear of mental exhaustion.  Meanwhile, positive love and monetary forces attempt a minor comeback — thanks to the Moon in Libra forming a flowing trine to Venus in Aquarius (2:18PM). This aspect doubles as a boost on the artistic and social fronts. Your psychic sensitivity and creative imagination are highlighted as Mercury re-enters Pisces (3:25PM) — the sign where this planet was located between January 31 and February 12. Now the fleet-footed messenger planet — gaining speed with each passing day — remains committed to the entwined fish until April 7.  Unsettled conditions may arrive suddenly as the Moon makes its monthly polarity to shock-meister Uranus (3:51PM) followed 8+ later by a Moon-Mars parallel (11:59PM). Since this is the first day after a Full Moon, keep spreading the word about the spiritual goodwill that just descended to the material realm during yesterday’s solar-lunar illumination. [Note to readers: All times are calculated for Pacific Daylight Time. Be sure to adjust all times according to your own local time so the alignments noted above will be exact for your location.]

Liberalia

Color: Purple
Elements: Fire and Water

Liberalia Invocation

Papa Liber
Mama Libera
We honor you!
You who are liberty and freedom,
Yet whose priestesses are elder women
Because in order to know
What it is to be truly free,
One must have had experience
And understood the many prisons
In which life will try to trap us.
You who are in the spirit
Of the great phallus borne into
The marketplace for all to see and touch
Yet whose wreath is laid upon it
By a virtuous matron whose body
Has not strayed from her wedding vows,
Because in order to know
What it is to be truly free,
One must have had the choice of many chains
And freely chosen those bonds
In which one wishes to spend one’s days.
Liberty in all its contradictions,
Freedom in all its ambiguities,
The state which we can never quite define
Your country which we can never find on a map
Yet we always know
When we have touched its shores.

(The libation is passed around, and blessed, and then poured out. Each member of the community may choose what work they will do that evening, and none is to be given orders, yet they must explain the following day why they did choose in that way.)

Current Moon Phase for March 17th – Full Moon

Full Moon

(waning/92% of illumination)

A veil of self-absorption is lifted and suddenly you gain access to an unbiased view of others. This is a rare moment when you can see yourself objectively and become aware of whether or not what you want in your heart is actually beginning to manifest in your life. Traditionally, the Full Moon phase stirs emotion, and this is because when you “see” what is happening, you may become upset if you’re experiencing the “same ole, same ole” — rather than the things you would like. If the Full Moon phase is a disappointment, on the next New Moon it’s time to take creative action in the direction of your dreams.

Celtic tree month  Fearn begins
Sheelah’s  Day, an annual festival to honor the fertility Goddess known as Sheela-na-gig was held on this  date in ancient Ireland. As
Christianity made  inroads, the identity of the Goddess was altered to the consort of mother of St. Patrick. Sheela is a very potent fertility
goddess and is  depicted in a squatting birthing position, holding her labia wide to allow her fertility to pass  out to any who honour her.
The obviousness of her fertility terrified the Church so they scrambled to find a more chaste version of her. 
St. Patrick’s Day (March  17)
March 17 is widely accepted as  the date of St. Patrick’s death in A.D. 461.
The first St. Patrick’s Day  parade in the United States was held in New York City on this day in 1762. 
Cabbage seeds are often planted  today, and old-time farmers believed that to make them grow well, you needed to  plant them while wearing your nightclothes.
On St. Patrick’s  Day, the warm side of a rock turns up,
and the broad-back goose begins  to lay.
From The Old Farmer’s  Almanac
Canaan: The  annual Festival of Astarte was held this day in
Canaan to honor the honor the  Goddess known as Queen of Heaven.
Rome: Date of  women’s festival of freedom known as the
Liberalia.
Spain: Fallas –  Annual festival in Valencia, when giant
sculptures are burnt in bonfires  across the region.  The
tradition (according to  Christians) is thought to have
originated in ancient times from  carpenters burning unwanted
wood at the start of spring. In  the Catalan language, fallas
means “fire.”

A Very Blessed “Happy Irish Heritage Day” to One & All!

St Patricks Day Images

Hail and Merry Meet! We will wish you a “Happy Irish Day” here, but St. Patrick will not be uttered. We are proud Irish and we will gladly wish you all the blessings and happiest the day could hold for you. Since the Ladies are Witches and I am a Druid, we have no use for St. Patrick. The folklore has it, he ran out all the snakes in Ireland. The snakes that were referred to by St. Patrick and his Christian followers were the Druids. The Druids were almost completely wiped out. We had to do the same as the Witches in America, go underground for our religion and our practices just to survive. Most people outside the Pagan community do not know the story of St. Patrick and his snakes. They cannot understand why Druids and Witches do not wish others a “Happy St. Patrick’s Day.” He did nothing for us except to try to wipe us off the face of this planet.

Let us celebrate our Irish heritage today instead of a near extinction of an entire religion. On March 17th, everyone is Irish!

Happy Irish Heritage Day to You, Lads & Lassies of the WOTC!

Lord Of The Myst
