Shuffling The Cards, Your Past, Present & Future Reading for Today
Past Influence whose impact on your life is waning
The Green Man
Where the Green Man appears the mystery and untamed energy of nature abounds. The Green Man indicates the presence of choices and powers that have not been muted by civilization. The Green Man represents the antithesis of technology and industrialization. He offers primal energies veiled in mystery and derived from the spirit of nature in its purest form.
Present Influence whose impact on your life is very strong.
The Dove
Throughout history the Dove has symbolized peace and innocence in nearly all cultures. Dove’s soft cooing and gentle nature bring a calmness to any situation. The Dove appears where peace has been attained or there is a need to bring events to a peaceful ending. It denotes a time to let lose of grievances and settle conflicts in a way that benefits all parties equally.
Future influence whose impact on your life is growing and will be very strong in the future.
Alturism
Altruism denotes the noble act of giving to those in need without the expectation of a return. The act of giving has been seen as one of humankind’s greatest attributes throughout history. It is honored in nearly every culture. To give is a gift to both those who receive and those who give. Giving is usually associated with addressing the material needs of others, but the gift given can take many forms such as wisdom or protection or simply a shoulder to cry on.
Although the exact meaning may vary, The Hand is a symbol of some form of personal power in many cultures and religions. The presence of The Hand is an indication that your personal powers are at or near their zenith. The Hand suggest a time when you should leave your mark on the world.
As a daily card, The Hand suggest that now is a time for you to leave your mark on the world. Your unique strengths are heightened to a point where you can not only expect to make substantial progress towards your goals, but enjoy recognition for your efforts as well.
Meaning: This is a rune of difficulty and negative influences will rule your life for a time, but as all difficulties are a learning experience it will lead to improved personal perspective and progress on your life’s path. Always consult the surrounding runes with this stone. If it lies with a positive stone, it indicates that the pain of this experience will lead to a beneficial change in circumstances.
Like The Sun, The Universe brings good blessings. The Universe appears where all is in balance. It allows you to act effectively not only as an individual but as a member of a group too. The Universe promises contentment, fulfillment and completeness to those under its influence. It doesn’t guarantee there will not be moments of strife or discord in your life, but it does indicate that your trials and tribulations will be overcome; that ultimately you will know inner-peace and contentment. The Universe suggests you have found or will find your place in the scheme of things—that place where all is as it should be.

Additional information about Today’s Rune, Sowilo
sowulo : sun
Phonetic equivalent: s
DIVINATORY MEANINGS: success, positive energy, increase, power, activity, fertility, health
ANALYSIS: The sun is held sacred by almost every religion in the world. Its light and warmth symbolize life and growth and all that is good. Norse cosmology describes the sun being driven around the heavens in a chariot and chased by a great wolf, which will devour at Ragnarok. Throughout IndoEuropean Paganism, the sun has frequently been associated with the horse, often described as being carted around the sky by a horse. Both are symbolic of life and fertility, and are usually considered ‘masculine’ in polarity, although in Norse myth the chariot is driven by a girl. The swastika or sun wheel is a constant motif in rock carvings dating Neolithic times, and occurs throughout Europe and Asia. The sun rune itself is a variation on this symbol, and represents motion and energy.
Sowilo marks the end of the second aett, and like wunjo represents success and glory. However, unlike the rest and relaxation of Valhalla, the sun is very much an active symbol. We have reached the end of the aett successfully, and the conclusion is a positive one, but in this case we are fully aware of the changing and transient nature of the universe. We can see the wolf at heels, and we know that we must move on. Here, though, the journeyer may pause briefly in the warmth and light of the sun, absorbing and applying its energy to the work ahead. This time we won’t need to be blasted out of our safe position, but will rather choose to leave it in order to continue on the journey.
First and foremost Death does not specifically pertain to our physical death. The Death card marks ends and beginnings. Although most illustrations of the Death card tend to be morbid, the forces behind the Death card are actually quite exciting. Yes Death does mark the end of something. But ends are often brought about by completion and not loss. Most endings are actually good, and make room for us to begin new adventures.
When The Tower is among your personal cards, the influence of Death may be increased. Having The Fool or The Empress in your personal cards may diminish the influence of Death.
The Emperor
The Emperor is gifted with the skills to successfully lead others. He can turn chaos into order, provide structure to that which is unbound. He is quick of mind and confident in his power and right to rule, and does so in a just manner. Although stern by nature, he truly is the ultimate father figure. He will provide as needed, teach those with unanswered questions, protect the vulnerable, set and maintain boundaries. His perfect world runs on schedule and is free of any disturbances. What the Emperor must be wary of is setting boundaries and rules where none are needed. If he isn’t he may well become a tyrant.
When The Hierophant or Justice are among your personal cards, the influence of The Emperor may be increased. Having The Empress in your personal cards may diminish the influence of The Emperor.
Like The Sun, The World brings good blessings. The World appears where all is in balance. It allows you to act effectively not only as an individual but as a member of a group too. The World promises contentment, fulfillment and completeness to those under its influence. It doesn’t guarantee there will not be moments of strife or discord in your life, but it does indicate that your trials and tribulations will be overcome; that ultimately you will know inner-peace and contentment. The World suggests you have found or will find your place in our Universe—that place where all is as it should be.
There can be some feeling of restriction today, dear Aries, but as the day progresses, your feelings are less influenced by fear, and you can experience more sharpness, detachment, and enjoyment. Do something creative and different – you have the courage now. Enjoy relating to others free of unhealthy expectations. A surprise attraction may be part of your day; or a partner could bring a pleasant surprise into your life. You might express yourself in a wonderful way that others also find appealing. People are seeing your unique and progressive qualities, and they like what they see! There can be a creative or romantic breakthrough now.
Taurus
Taurus
You can be feeling a little sensitive to imbalances in your love or family life, dear Taurus, but as the day progresses, you’re likely to open your mind and let go of insecurities. There can be a pleasurable connection with someone, or even a memory, that inspires you or helps open your heart. A family or home-related matter might be resolved quite creatively now. You might be able to more freely discuss a topic that was tricky in the past, and this might even lead to a breakthrough of sorts in a relationship. Emotional blocks are freed or released, and open minds can take you to better places.
Gemini
Gemini
There can be some inhibitions experienced today, dear Gemini, or perhaps backlash concerning something you’ve said. As the day progresses, however, there is considerably more freedom and detachment felt, and you’re likely to enjoy yourself fully. This is a time for getting over recent problems or emotional hurdles. You are willing to push through boundaries, and you do it in such a gentle way that it works beautifully, helping to open others up. People are appreciating your intelligence, wit, conversations, and unique ideas. There may be romantic opportunities or sudden attractions experienced now.
Cancer
Cancer
There can be some concern about money or security today, dear Cancer, but as the day moves forward, you’re ready to let go of fear and embrace new ideas. There may be work or reputation-related developments that might even be considered breakthroughs as your mind opens up to possibilities. Your intuition for business and finance is powerful now – whether you trust it or not is another question. This is a good time to think about recent problems that have left you feeling insecure, and consciously challenging yourself to trust that things will work out. Your ideas may be a little ahead of the times just for the time being, and that’s just fine – you know not to discard them. An unusual meeting or friendship can occur that inspires you. Tastes are progressive and unique, so that if you go shopping today you might come back with some very creative items.
Leo
Leo
Venus has been transiting your sign, and this brings positive attention your way in general, dear Leo. However, today is extra special because Venus in Leo is approaching a nice connection with Uranus in Aries in your adventure sector. You are open to experimentation, new experiences, and new feelings. Your desires can be unusual and different today. New connections might be made that excite and delight you, and perhaps have you feeling a little off-center, but in a good way. You might spice up an existing connection as well. Tastes for material things or pleasures can be just as exotic right now. Saturn’s energy is a little heavy today, however, and this can magnify responsibilities in around the home. Keep in mind that resisting change can sometimes be more stressful than the change itself.
Virgo
Virgo
There can be some tension today surrounding something that’s communicated, dear Virgo, as you may feel under fire or misunderstood. However, it’s far easier to let go of fear and inhibition as the day progresses. By evening, you’re finding it very easy to open up. You’re spirited, giving, and detached just enough to really enjoy yourself. The fear of making changes can be so overpowering at times that the actual change is liberating. Aim to liberate yourself from negative thought patterns. Today and the last two days of June are excellent for doing so.
Libra
Libra
Inner restlessness can sometimes wreak a bit of havoc in our lives, but at other times, it can push us in the direction of necessary change. The latter is the likely scenario today, dear Libra. Your focus is forward looking now, and while getting rid of something you no longer need can sometimes feel uncomfortable, it is likely to feel unusually liberating as well. Love can bring pleasant surprises today. Today is about accepting yourself and others at face value, and letting go of unhealthy expectations. New or renewed connections might be made that delight and inspire you. This is a time for getting rid of some emotional slush – you are able to help others do so as well now.
Scorpio
Scorpio
There is good energy with you today for professional and personal networking, dear Scorpio. While there can be some inhibitions or concerns experienced early today, possibly even controversy, later today is detached, forward-looking, friendly, and progressive. You are open to new adventures and ideas right now. A partner might bring a pleasant surprise, or be especially open with you. Even so, with the Moon and Saturn aligning in your sign today, you are especially conscious of your responsibilities. Don’t let these weigh you down. Make a point of letting go of recent burdens that have been keeping you from enjoying yourself, and especially those related to what you are able to achieve.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
Your friendships and long-term goals assume more importance in your life now, dear Sagittarius, and today you’re bringing something new to the table. While there can be some inhibitions experienced this morning, as the day advances, you express yourself naturally, uniquely, and creatively. Your tastes are unusual and perhaps only temporary, but you might stumble upon a fabulous find. Today and in the next couple of days, there can be positive word on a travel or educational experience, or a new opportunity to add some adventure in your life. Problem solving is enhanced, and this is especially the case when inspired by a friend or lover. Good feelings generate friendly gestures. Open up and enjoy yourself. As well, make a conscious effort to let go of recent frustrations and pressures, and think about moving forward.
Capricorn
Capricorn
While you are not always in the mood for complications, dear Capricorn, these days you can be attracted to mysteries and unusual situations. Today, you can be especially open to different feelings and attractions, and you may even have some inspiring visions and intuitions. You might also experiment or learn something new on an intimate level. There can be an emotional relief, a freeing idea or situation, and a little more courage to express your deeper needs and desires. You may be moving out of your comfort zone or away from familiar situations, but thoroughly enjoying the experience.
Aquarius
Aquarius
Today is strong for thinking outside the box, communications, projects revolving around technology or new thinking, and for love matters as well, dear Aquarius, as your ruler, Uranus, forms a pleasant aspect to Venus. People are seeing and appreciating your most unique qualities, and you feel freer with this kind of open-minded energy around you. You could experience a new idea or awareness that releases you from negative thinking or a past burden. Others might inspire you. Relationships seem more accepting and flow more freely. There can be interesting and even inspiring coincidences or chance meetings that have you whistling a new, happier tune. Think of ways to let go of frustrations and make a promise to yourself that you’ll spend more time enjoying your life.
Pisces
Pisces
The day may not get off to a great start, dear Pisces, as there could be a misunderstanding or a difficult decision to make. However, as the day progresses, you can find many ways to enjoy yourself. Inhibitions tend to drop. Make a concerted effort to let go of limiting attitudes and frustrations over minor problems. There is good energy for work, new methods, financial affairs, and business ideas. Whether you’re working or not, it’s a time for seeing easier solutions to problems as you are thinking in more clever ways. Taking a more relaxed and creative approach to your life now does wonders for your mood. There is also good energy today for tapping into a new and progressive health and wellness program.
You are a wonderful conversationalist and idea-person. You have a way with words, and others tend to appreciate your sense of fun. You are very able to make sacrifices for others, and sometimes do so to the detriment of your own progress. This is particularly true in your love life. You are highly creative. Possibly the most impressive of your many abilities is your empathic qualities that allow you to put yourself into virtually anyone’s shoes and understand. Famous people born today: Tobey Maguire, J. J. Abrams, Julia Duffy, Lionel Richie, Helen Keller.
You may be experiencing competitive or frustrating energy with family, a lover, or child today, dear Aries. This can happen if you’re expecting too much too soon. Try not to rush things. Some of you could be drawn to some form of recreational risk-taking. Although there may be some tendencies towards impulsiveness with money, you can also be quite motivated to get some work done or to bring money in. There is a nesting urge experienced now, and also a stronger ability to find beauty in things. New ideas for making money or new businesses should be considered, but it’s better to wait for a better time to start anew. Your mood lifts when you feel emotionally stronger and equipped for making changes, and you can tune into this energy quite easily today with the Moon in your solar eighth house.
Taurus
Taurus
There may be some aggravations revolving around personal projects that seem outdated or slow to advance today, dear Taurus, and for some of you, with family and home life and differing opinions on how you should be spending your time. Self-discipline is a little more difficult to access at the moment. Take it easy and consider ways to find a better balance in your life. Also, remind yourself that overhauling a project requires time and some level of patience, as well as creative solutions that are not necessarily going to occur to you immediately, and certainly not if you are in a stressed out state. Positive attention or feedback from others can soothe and smooth your mood today.
Gemini
Gemini
You could be feeling some impatience if it seems that things are not going as you had expected them to, dear Gemini. However, you might want to rethink whether or not your expectations realistically reflect your time and energy. Today is strong for making adjustments such as these, but do watch for hasty decision making. If you find that you have a short attention span today, look for creative solutions and avoid adding more things to your plate. Difficulties or worries about money and/or conflicts with relatives or even neighbors are very possible now, but in the long run could be important catalysts that bring you to quicker resolutions of problems or that clear the air. If you can tame impatience, this can be a strong day for productivity and new insights.
Cancer
Cancer
There is a tendency to overdo or over-reach today, Cancer, and for you, perhaps overspending is part of the picture. Matters and desires might feel pressing or urgent when in fact you would be better off waiting things out. Restlessness may be a problem on some level, but if this can be managed, this can be a strong day for networking, connecting, and enjoying friends, goals, and dreams. People can have solutions for you or can simply be good at calming you. Creatively speaking, you are at a nice peak today and in the next few days, particularly when you can apply creative thinking to practical ideas.
Leo
Leo
You can be feeling a little restless today as there can be a sense that circumstances or people in your life are blocking your progress, dear Leo. If you are not actively pursuing an interest today, you can be a little moody and possibly argumentative. A competitive urge can be stimulated. Seek out creative outlets for excess energy, and try to take part in an activity that allows you to take the initiative. Despite this, there are some very bright spots to the day, particularly through family or your work. Allow yourself to relax enough to absorb, learn, and share, as there can be especially good ideas stimulated by the events and circumstances of these last few days of June.
Virgo
Virgo
There can be fluctuating energy levels and moods today, Virgo. You could have a hard time expressing yourself freely, or you might find that something you say is taken the wrong way and you’ve unwittingly caused a problem or controversy. Pushing yourself too hard doesn’t get you further faster, and might even put you into a worse position. However, if you can let go of the sense that you need to compete or push in order to grow, this can be a good time for exploring a new or current interest. A partner or love interest may very well have the right words to soothe you.
Libra
Libra
There could be some minor frustrations or disagreements with friends today, dear Libra, perhaps as you feel put upon by someone’s demands or by someone crossing normal boundaries. Excess energy is best channeled into something constructive or creative if this can be managed. The Sun is in minor hard angle to Jupiter, making it a little difficult to be moderate, but that is the challenge! If you can get your expectations back down to reality, you’ll find the day very useful for taking care of practical matters, finding solutions to financial problems, or taking steps to make your life a little more secure.
Scorpio
Scorpio
There may be some frustration or competitive elements in your dealings with authority figures, bosses, or parents today, dear Scorpio. There might also be tensions revolving around a business project or vision that you want to move faster than it is, but that requires more patience. It would be a good idea to recognize the need to make changes, but it’s also important to have a strong sense of what you can and cannot do. Even so, today can be strong for personal appeal. The Moon continues to transit your sign all day, which can in some ways make emotional needs seem urgent, but there are strong channels for releasing feelings creatively now.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
You can experience some restlessness today with the Sun in minor conflict with your ruler, Jupiter, dear Sagittarius. There may be frustrations brewing around different viewpoints, transportation problems, or frustrated travel or educational plans. Even so, any problems cropping up today are likely to be resolved fairly easily with patience and moderation. Pressures to grow or improve can be real, but you can’t do everything all at once, and you’ll be at your best if you recognize this. Try not to rush to a conclusion. There can be great satisfaction found in doing little things that improve mental health and outlook. The Moon’s transit of your privacy sector all day suggests that you may be in need of the kind of emotional refreshment that comes through time alone for reflection.
Capricorn
Capricorn
Tensions today are likely to arise from feeling pressure to move forward too quickly, dear Capricorn. The aspects between the Sun and Jupiter over the course of a year can point to peaks and valleys when it comes to our plans and expectations of/for them. Today’s Sun-Jupiter is one of the valleys – a time to adjust our expectations or work on motivation levels. Look out for your health and well-being by taking things easy. There could be a disagreement revolving around money or the sharing of power. Rise above immature reactions and avoid rushing. Casual friends or networking activities can be super helpful in this respect, providing a nice detox from pressures elsewhere.
Aquarius
Aquarius
You could be dealing with a rather competitive person on the job or a frustrating situation with a partner today, dear Aquarius. You are instinctively sensing the moods of people and the environment around you, and possibly contending with emotionally draining people or situations. Physical sensitivity may also be an issue now. You are more sensitive to whether or not others are recognizing your achievements and contributions today, but there is good energy for support and appreciation. Allow yourself to relax enough to see and feel the encouragement, and focus on taming unrealistic expectations. In all likelihood, there’s no rush, so avoid pressuring yourself. The coming days are strong for making connections – free your energy field as much as possible so that you let others in.
Pisces
Work or scheduled activities can be demanding at times today, dear Pisces. There is a tendency to either overdo and push too hard, or to avoid responsibilities altogether, and neither situation is going to leave you feeling satisfied! If you feel under the weather, it’s likely to do with recent immoderate activity or undue pressure. Frustrations require a positive channel for release, and quite possibly a creative one. Try not to let yourself feel rushed. There can be nice words exchanged that put you in a good mood, however. With the Moon in your adventure sector all day, you have support for letting bygones be bygones, particularly as you focus on bigger and better things.
When it comes to courtship, your Aries wants you to be bold and aggressive. Don’t ask permission for a kiss — just plant a breathtaking one as soon as the moment seizes you. The more forceful your approach, the better. Rams are also susceptible to compliments. These folks want to hear that they’re the sexiest person in the room. If you’ve just met an Aries, feel free to contradict them. Spirited debates act like aphrodisiacs on this sign. Seducing a Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
Slow and steady wins the race with Taurus. These folks want to savor the courtship phase of a relationship. Be sure to show up on the first date with a bouquet of flowers or some other beautiful token of your appreciation. Bulls love presents. A subtle splash of cologne will work like a love magnet on Taurus, as this sign is extremely responsive to sensual stimuli. If you’ve got an earthy sense of humor, don’t hide it. Nothing gets Taurus in the mood like a spicy joke.
Seducing a Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
The fastest way to Gemini’s bedroom is through the brain. Ask this sign for a reading recommendation — Geminis love to be consulted about intellectual matters. If you’ve got specialized knowledge of a particular subject, be sure to bring it up. People born under the sign of the Twins are wildly attracted to experts — the more obscure your subject, the better. If Gemini mentions their latest hobby, be sure to ask for a crash course. Nothing gets this sign in the mood like showing off their know-how.
Seducing a Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
These Moon Children are notoriously soft-hearted. If you’d like to make your way into this sign’s bedroom, show off your sensitive side. Express an interest in charities, especially ones involving children. Cancers secretly love being babied, so it’s a great idea to fix this sign a home-cooked meal. Keep the lights low and the music soft … Cancer is very responsive to romantic atmospheres. If you’ve got your sights set on a female Crab, ask permission before you kiss her. If you’re dating a guy, make the first move and then apologize for being so bold.
Seducing a Leo (July 23 – August 22)
If you want to seduce a Leo, focus on this sign like a laser. Compliment the way they dress, eat and breathe. Treat him or her to the best of everything, whether it’s the center table at the fanciest restaurant in town or the choicest spot on your picnic blanket. When the lights are turned low, run your fingers through the Lion’s mane. He or she will purr with delight. Murmur words of praise into his or her ear during foreplay. Your lovemaking will build to a beautiful crescendo.
Seducing a Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
Cleanliness is definitely a virtue when seducing Virgo. Make sure that your sheets are freshly laundered before taking a tumble with this sign. It’s also a good idea to be impeccably groomed yourself. Nothing turns a Virgin on like the smell of French-milled soap. In fact, you may want to take a bath together as a prelude to lovemaking. If you’re having trouble even getting a date with Virgo, ask him or her to help organize your desk, proofread a letter or find your keys. This is a great way to break the ice with this service-oriented sign.
Seducing a Libra (September 23 – October 22)
When it comes to seducing sophisticated Libra, it’s best to summon the spirit of Cary Grant or Audrey Hepburn. This sign needs to be romanced in high style … think champagne and evening dress versus beer and baseball caps. Librans love music, so taking this sign to a concert would be a terrific prelude to lovemaking. It’s a wise idea to perfect your kissing technique before making the first move on Libra. This sign wants a lover with finesse.
Seducing a Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
It may be challenging to seduce secretive Scorpio, since it’s hard to gauge this sign’s reactions. Don’t be fazed if your moves are met with an inscrutable smile … that’s just Scorpio’s own form of seduction. A good first move? Take this sign’s hand in a darkened movie theater and trace delicate patterns on the inside of his or her palm. Make love wordlessly and urgently, letting your body do all the communicating.
Seducing a Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)
Sagittarians are easily seduced through humor. Crack a few jokes, make a few pratfalls, and leave some funny voicemails if you’d like to get acquainted with the Archer’s bedroom. The prospect of making love outdoors always excites the Archer. Invite Sagittarius on a camping trip and be sure to bring a double sleeping bag. Last but not least, people born under this sign are ruled by the thighs and hips. Playful Sagittarius will become deadly serious when you zero in on these areas.
Seducing a Capricorn (December 22 – January 19)
Dignified Capricorn can be quite intimidating on the sexual front, but rest assured that this sexy sign is worth seducing. A slow, steady approach works best with Goats. Limit your first encounter to a lingering kiss. Then the next time you see each other, caress Cappy’s back, neck and shoulders, applying firm, insistent pressure. Make a strategic retreat when Capricorn begs you to finish what you’ve started. Deep down inside, this sign knows that the best things in life are worth waiting for.
Seducing an Aquarius (January 20 – February 18)
Quirky Aquarius can be a tough nut to crack when it comes to sex. If you’d like to seduce this sign, try an unconventional approach. Claim that you’re doing research for a sex clinic and need their help with an experiment. Declare that, while you’re not interested in pursuing a physical relationship with Aquarius, you’re willing to make the sacrifice in the name of friendship. The more offbeat your manner, the more attracted Aquarius will be. All Water-bearers have a rebellious streak. Dare one to kiss you.
Seducing a Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
If you’d like to seduce a Pisces, transport him or her to another world. Invite your favorite Fish to look through your telescope or check out your aquarium. Make your move as soon as Pisces becomes absorbed in the action. A quick kiss on the back of the neck will lead to bigger and better things. Pisceans have many erogenous areas including especially sensitive feet. A friendly foot rub can fan the flames of desire.
There are seven days of the week, but did you know that seven planets serve as the ruler each day? This ancient tradition stems from Babylonian times and holds significant merit since Astrology’s first organized roots are traced to this time period. And you can find out about your soul’s past with an Edgar Cayce Past Lives Report.
Back then (as early as 2,000 B.C.) the outer planets, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, were not yet discovered, since the telescope had not yet been invented. Astrologers and astronomers could only work with planets visible to the naked eye. The Babylonians organized the weekly calendar we still use today. Interestingly enough, you can use the days of the week as a general planning guide to help you know when it’s best to initiate or pursue certain endeavors. As far as the days of the week go, here are the astrological associations and suggestions for how you can best plan your week accordingly…
Monday is ruled by the Moon
The Moon in Astrology represents one’s nurturing and emotional instinct. The Moon rules Cancer — the sign we associate with mothering and mood changes. Indeed the Moon is the one planet that ebbs and flows more than any other. This may be why starting anything on Monday may likely lead to a change of direction. If you want something to be permanent, it’s best not to initiate it on Monday. The exception, of course, is domestic undertakings.
Tuesday is ruled by Mars
Mars in Astrology symbolizes the principle of assertive energy. Aries is the sign of the zodiac ruled by Mars. Thanks to fiery Mars, we associate Aries with qualities of leadership and courage. Use Tuesday to initiate a pioneering activity that requires gumption and strength. If you have something to initiate that requires compromise and tact however, another day might be better.
Wednesday is ruled by Mercury
Mercury is the planet that rules our mindset. Ruling both Gemini and Virgo, Mercury bestows us with rational thinking ability and a quick, clever wit. Mercury analyzes, discerns and communicates. Consequently, anything that requires clear thinking, dialogue or decision making is best initiated on Wednesday.
Thursday is ruled by Jupiter
Jupiter represents abundance, prosperity and the principle of expansion. As the ruler of Sagittarius, Jupiter is the planet that helps us reach for high ideals and principles. Moral and just, Jupiter yearns to expand horizons through travel, education and spiritual pursuits. As a result, Thursday is a day that is well suited for travel, learning and philosophizing. This is also the best day to begin a project you hope will be prosperous.
Friday is ruled by Venus
Venus is the planet of love, harmony, money and possessions. Ruling both Taurus and Libra, Venus is graceful, charming, sensual and social. It follows that Friday is a day best suited for pursuing anything connected to matters of the heart — especially a wedding! Friday will also be ideal for making an extravagant purchase or financial investment. Use Friday to make a change to your appearance or mediate with anyone. And of course, if you want to have the “party of the year” … be sure to schedule it on a Friday.
Saturday is ruled by Saturn
Saturn is the planet of commitment and responsibility, but also restriction and delay. Saturn gives us boundaries and Capricorn — the sign ruled by Saturn — epitomizes this ability. With structure comes success and it’s possible to achieve something long lasting and successful on Saturday. But it will require diligent work. Saturday is perfect for anything that requires a sober, realistic and practical approach. Saturday is also good for starting anything you want to ensure will stand the test of time.
Sunday is ruled by the Sun
The Sun in Astrology is about vitality and is the core giver of life. The Sun rules Leo — known as being the most generous and noble of signs. Perhaps this is why Sunday is considered a timely day to improve one’s sense of vigor, approach a well-respected authority figure or even to figure things out. Whatever you begin on this day is likely to succeed.

As you embark on your year of creative power, you are focusing part of your energy from your now moment into your Future. This has been a nebulous pursuit from the human perspective, for the functionality of your heart/mind has not been taught as valuable to the future beyond its ability to put action into order for creation.
Even those that believe it to be powerful do not often fully trust the mechanism, for it is not as understood as action creating result. To feed someone that is hungry is obviously valuable. Yet for those that do not understand the power of the mind/heart complex – to Love that same person and see their beauty and capability is a lovely gesture, but ineffective for results.
As you begin to honor the entire process of creation, from invisible vibration of thought and emotion, into visible participation of your choices and actions; you are utilizing your full creative potential. Humanity does this automatically, for they observe, think, compare and choose. Yet most are not taught the creative power of the thinking and feeling mechanism (intentionally singular because they work together). Therefore, humanity does not control their thoughts or feelings as they control their actions, for the actions are seen as contributing to the final result.
In your recent years there has been much support for Lightworkers to cleanse, strengthen and focus the heart and mind. This support has often felt like the wringing of a rag as you were squeezed free of vibration that blocked your Love flow. This year of creative power will take you to another level of Self Love as you begin to focus your creation of Ascended Self into form.
Your empowerment is your ability to not only maintain your inner world, but to choose its focus. There is no other that can truly do this for you. It is the domain of the individual and it is your work as you create. Your future depends on it for manifestation.
The Future is merely your past and your now focused through your perspective. Your perspective is like a beam of light illuminating potential into form. That is the nature of your holographic experience. You Foretell your Future into form with your thoughts, your feelings and your actions.
Your work is to focus your perspective on creation for the Self, for each empowered individual must learn to do so. It is your Future to Foretell. With a moment of deep, empowered Love, visualize yourself empowered and creative. No details, just empowered and creative. As you are empowered and creative, you offer it to all you meet. It is part of your service to the world.
As we sit to Blast Foretelling Futures, we are focusing our potent beam of Love into the Loving future of humanity. We are initializing a new holographic potential as we illuminate the positive potential of any negative experience. We are letting go of the focus on the negative that dims the understanding of its wisdom. We are becoming strong enough to handle the negative and wise enough to foster the positive. We are seeing the Light of Love clearly, even as we choose a path of the unknown, for our power to create is becoming known within. Blast on!
The Moon today is in a Waxing Gibbous phase. This phase is when the moon is more than 50% illuminated but not yet a Full Moon. The phase lasts round 7 days with the moon becoming more illuminated each day until the Full Moon. During a Waxing Gibbous the moon will rise in the east in mid-afternoon and will be high in the eastern sky at sunset. The moon is then visible though most of the night sky setting a few hour before sunrise. The word Gibbous first appeared in the 14th century and has it’s roots in the Latin word “gibbous” meaning humpbacked.

You will need sexy music, your lover, and your favorite scented oil.
After dark, turn on the music. Sit opposite each other skyclad, preferably somewhere you can see the night sky. Anoint one another with the scented oil, on the ankles, knees, thighs, navel, shoulders, neck, and back of the head, in that order. After you anoint each other, say in unison:
Shining stars and moonlight Illuminate our love so bright One into two into three times three May our lovemaking be ecstasy, blessed be!
Hold hands and stare softly into your lover’s eyes for at least fifteen minutes. It’s okay if you blink or giggle or cry. Just focus on how much you love your beloved as your gaze into his or her eyes. Next, stand quietly, and touch and embrace for a few minutes. Then hold hands and stare softly into your lover’s eyes for another ten minutes, or until you both come together for an intensely, intimate night.

On a Full Moon, prepare your altar with black cloth. Set upon it a purple, blue, or white candle. It is best to use either a votive or a pillar. Around this, lay oak leaves in a circle and place clusters of quartz and/or amethyst around or on top of the oak leaves. Ground and Center and Cast your Circle.
Light the candle and say: Candle of Power Vision and light Open my eyes to the future this night.
Gaze into the flame and empty your mind of extraneous thought. Be patient and the future shall be seen. Don’t stare into the flame, for this causes the eyes to become strained and may give you a headache…just gaze and they shall appear. Good Luck!
