Additional information about Today’s Witches Rune, The Scythe….
The Scythe
This symbol is very familiar to most of people, often associated with harvest and death. In the runes, it is no different. The Scythe is related to endings, sudden separations, final decisions, important changes and danger.
The appearance of this symbol show that there’s something in you life you need to bring to end now, before it snowballs into something worse. Usually, the decision that the Scythe forces you to make is one you’d rather escape from… it’s a painful and difficult choice. Even though you know (or feel) it’s for the best, you’ll mourn the fact that it has to happen.
Also, the Scythe is connected to sudden, swift changes that force you to alter completely your plans, strategies and sometimes the very way you see the world. The situation is no longer what it was, your modus operandi no longer works here. Your ideas no longer correspond to the reality. The information you have is no longer accurate, or useful. You need to strain those adaptation muscles and find a way to keep standing while the rug is pulled from under your feet.
Although this rune can represent physical danger, such as accidents or surgeries, many time it refers to sense of foreboding. Something just isn’t right… the fear of loss looms large. Trust these feeling and proceed with caution. This rune can also relate to actual death and all related to it: burials, graveyards, inheritances, heirlooms, legacies and things connected to your ancestry.
In relationship readings, the Scythe suggest caution too. It can represent sudden and irresistible attractions, the kind that inspire people to do crazy things. . Obviously, this rune also represent separations, divorce and conflicts, always leaving a sour aftertaste. The strong passion can quickly transform into strong resentment. In its most positive note, this rune can symbolize relationship that completely transform the people involved.
The Hierophant represents the protector of a culture’s heritage and traditions. His purpose is to defend and teach the established ways and beliefs a group embraces. He is inherently conventional and a true believer in the power of the group. He loves the structure of the group and its values. It is the task of The Hierophant to bring new members into the group—to prepare the uninitiated to take their rightful place in his culture. In this sense he is very much like a teacher or a priest. He also acts as the repository of his group’s history. The Hierophant is certainly not one to buck proper authority. However, he is staunch and worthy defender of the tried and true. He represents the positive aspects of tradition and conformity.

ANALYSIS: Ing is a Danish / Anglo-Saxon name for Freyr, the God of agriculture and fertility. Agriculture represents one of the first attempts by mankind to control the environment, and the fertility of crops, animals and people has always been the primary concern and religious focus of most Pagan agrarian societies. From the earliest Sumerian accounts to modern-day British folk custom, people throughout history have sought to ensure the success of their crops.
The vast majority of people in Western society have lost all contact and connection with the land and the process of growing things.
The spiritual consequences of this segregation from the earth have been disastrous, since most people find it difficult to relate to deity in a purely man-made environment. The shape of this rune can be likened to that of a field, but its real significance may lie in its balance, representing the harmonious relationship between ourselves and the four elements / four directions. Inguz reminds us of that ancient connection between the Gods and the land, and re-links (the real meaning of the ‘religion’) us with our spiritual natures through the realm of the physical. It is quite literally a grounding rune, and by reintroducing us to the earth, it reconnects our bodies, our minds and our spirits.
Traditionally, the Magus is one who can demonstrate hands-on magic — as in healing, transformative rituals, alchemical transmutations, charging of talismans and the like. A modern Magus is any person who completes the circuit between heaven and Earth, one who seeks to bring forth the divine ‘gold’ within her or himself.
At the birth of Tarot, even a gifted healer who was not an ordained clergyman was considered to be in league with the Devil! For obvious reasons, the line between fooling the eye with sleight of hand, and charging the world with magical will was not clearly differentiated in the early Tarot cards.
Waite’s image of the Magus as the solitary ritualist communing with the spirits of the elements — with its formal arrangement of symbols and postures — is a token of the freedom we have in modern times to declare our spiritual politics without fear of reprisal. The older cards were never so explicit about what the Magus was doing. It’s best to keep your imagination open with this card. Visualize yourself manifesting something unique, guided by evolutionary forces that emerge spontaneously from within your soul.
It’s that time of year again, when we all promise to correct our bad habits and become perfect people. Riiiiight! As we all know, New Year resolutions are made to be broken … but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t make them.
Whether we stick to them is not always the point. It’s more about adjusting our focus each year to gain greater awareness. Little by little, that awareness can help us clean up our mucky areas and get closer to living the lives we desire.
Aries (March 21 – April 19)
If one of your resolutions last year was to finish projects that are still sitting on your shelf, it’s time to box them up and make room for a brand new endeavor. Here’s the resolution you will need to make it a success: I won’t start a new project until I finish the one I’m working on.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
Your fixed energy makes you great at follow through, but it can also keep you stuck in bad habits. Resolve to tackle a few of your worst ones this year. If you are true to your resolutions for just three months, you will be well on your way to breaking even the most stubborn habit.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
Your whirlwind life can be a lot of fun — and it certainly isn’t boring — but it might serve you well to slow down this coming year. Even though patience isn’t your strong suit, try adding a dash of it here and there. It will help you make progress in areas where your bouncy energy has actually been holding you back.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
You love your routines and your security, but it’s time to get out of your comfort zone and try something new. Resolve to reach out into unknown territory and see what you find this year. If it feels scary, remember that you’re just coming up on an edge where you need to stretch.
Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22)
Have you used your irresistible charms to capture emotional prisoners this past year? If you’re a player — and you know who you are — resolve to be more devoted this year. Open up that big heart of yours and take your relationships to a deeper level.
Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)
Nag, nag, nag … the only time you stop is when you’re nitpicking. Okay, that’s a huge exaggeration … but chances are you’ve gotten on someone’s case a little too often this past year. Resolve to lighten up this year and let others take care of dotting the i’s and crossing the t’s.
Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)
As hard as you try, you can’t have it both ways. Promise yourself you will make firmer decisions this coming year. You can still weigh all of your alternatives, but when it comes down to the line, make up your mind and stick to it. Your friends and colleagues will breathe a sigh of relief.
Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)
Keeping secrets adds to your mysterious allure, but there’s a limit. If you’re using your power to manipulate others, that’s where it needs to end. Resolve to be more transparent with those close to you this year. Let them in on your deepest secrets and enjoy the fruits of greater intimacy.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)
You’re good at thinking big and you shouldn’t change that this year … but you might want to put more time into developing strategies that will help you reach your lofty goals. Remember — a goal without a plan is just a dream — so make this the year you follow through.
Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)
Here’s your mantra-resolution: It’s not all about money. Keep pursuing the almighty dollar if you like, but also take time to smell the roses that line your path to success. Your friends and family need you. Resolve to be more generous with your time and attention.
Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)
Even though we all love your quirkiness, it wouldn’t hurt to develop a bit more tolerance for the traditional. As it’s the flip side of where you usually put your energy, it may feel uncomfortable. But you shine when it comes to breaking the mold, so surprise everyone (again!) with a side of you they’ve never seen.
Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20)
This is the year to put your compassion to better use. Resolve to find a project where you can help others in need. Your understanding and supportive nature is a gift you need to give on a regular basis. Reach out and extend it beyond your friends and family.
A partner may be a little too impatient or even aggressive in stance today, dear Aries, and then brood or withhold later today! Of course, somewhere in between would be ideal, but a little difficult to get there, especially as Mercury and Mars challenge one another, and with Mars your ruler, irritation is likely. Nevertheless, you can also choose to use frustrations as motivators to work on something on your own or to set your own pace, and you might find you thoroughly enjoy the time you take to do so.
Taurus
Taurus
There is a tendency to rush, push, and nitpick today, dear Taurus, with a Mercury-Mars conflict in the first half of the day. Chances are that a difference of opinion can bother you more than it would normally because you feel rushed in other areas of life. Try to pull back on the pressure and don’t overload yourself with things to do. With the Moon entering your romance and “play” sector this afternoon, you are likely to feel re-energized. It’s a time for spontaneity and enjoyment, but a Venus-Pluto conflict late tonight can point to a love dilemma, suspicion, or concern.
Gemini
Gemini
This morning, remember the old adage that haste makes waste, dear Gemini. Be particularly careful when it comes to expressing yourself with a lover or with someone about an intimate or tricky matter. One could be playful and teasing while the other can be taking things quite seriously. Impatience can be an issue now. You might prefer to stick to familiar settings from afternoon forward as the Moon moves into your home and family sector. Life slows down a touch, but moods can still be quite sensitive.
Cancer
Cancer
Watch carefully for a tendency to want to do too much, too fast in the first half of the day, dear Cancer. It’s a little too easy to become irritated, particularly with a partner or family member who may be disagreeable or provoking. Differences of opinion might be taken too personally now. The Moon moves into your communications sector this afternoon, and you tend to crave intellectual stimulation and change. Tonight’s Venus-Pluto challenge can incline others to be a little secretive or withholding.
Leo
Leo
While you should definitely watch for impatience in the first half of the day, dear Leo, the Moon is in your sign and you are bound to get noticed. You might feel that you can benefit from asserting yourself, but there can be hasty conclusions drawn now, as well as a tendency to speak too harshly, so watch for this. You may be sensitive to offhand remarks as well, but keep in mind that it’s all too easy to speak before thinking this morning, and tonight, to keep things to oneself and brood. The Moon moves into your solar second house this afternoon, which can certainly help settle emotions and increase patience.
Virgo
Virgo
Take extra care driving, getting around, drawing conclusions, and communicating today, dear Virgo, as there can be a tendency to be impatient and short with others, without intending to offend. The Moon moves into your sign this afternoon, and emotions awaken. You are noticed more than you have been in the last couple of days, and if you aren’t getting the attention you crave, you’re more likely to seek it out. Relations with lovers or possibly children might be a little strained today. Try not to give in to pressure that you need to pay an arm and a leg to enjoy yourself, as there are plenty of activities that are free or near-free that you can enjoy with people you love.
Libra
Libra
This morning, be careful that you don’t unintentionally mislead others by making an error of omission or by overstating, no matter how good your intentions, dear Libra. Watch also for impatience – the pace can be intense but tripping up is more likely if you rush through things. It may very well be that you’re putting too much pressure on yourself. Pressure is everywhere and you need to concentrate on only the most important tasks instead of spreading yourself too thin today. If you are able to narrow your focus sufficiently, you can get through just fine but it will take some effort. Keep the faith as pressures will pass quickly. Avoid communicating in a way that is construed as sarcastic later today.
Scorpio
Scorpio
Wherever you go today, dear Cancer, you’re sure to get noticed. This is because the Moon is transiting the most visible and notable area of your chart today. You might find others are a little too aggressive about their needs today, dear Scorpio. While this can be frustrating, you might appreciate in retrospect towards the end of the day when the tendency is to brood! Neither way is healthy, and ideally, you’ll avoid either extreme and approach others directly without being pushy. Rise above others’ faux pas. The people you want to notice you don’t seem to, and the people you don’t want to look your way, do. It’s just one of those days. Don’t expect others to read your mind, even if you think the signals you’re giving them are loud and clear. Ask for what you want instead, or wait until a better day to go after what you want.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
You can find yourself in a bit of a tizzy in the first half of the day, dear Sagittarius, and turning to others for a sense of stability could be a lesson in frustration. Insecurities can breed all sorts of conflict if left to grow. Identify the root problem and start there, but if you notice unresponsiveness or defensiveness from others, wait for a better day to tackle major issues, as blockages are very likely to be felt right now. People seem to either be spilling too much or keeping far too much to themselves.
Capricorn
Capricorn
Demands from others may seem to be flying at you from all directions in the first half of the day, dear Capricorn, and then later today, you may feel that others keeping things from you. Fortunately you are more than capable of handling them. Do what you can to take short breaks in order to get centered if you start to feel worn down. The Moon’s move into your solar sector of spirit and adventure helps to lift you above the petty problems of the day.
Aquarius
Aquarius
Interactions with others can be a little edgy today, dear Aquarius, and as a result, you’ll find that you need to handle people with extra care and sensitivity. Others seem to be a little more demanding or impatient than usual, but this doesn’t have to spoil your day. As the day advances, the Moon moves into your strategic, introspective, and observant solar eighth house, and you’re more inclined to slow down and think before you speak. You’ll be able to easily spot any attempts at manipulation you encounter later today. Keep interactions above board, but feel free to keep some things to yourself for safekeeping.
Pisces
Pisces
A tense aspect between Mercury and Mars can stimulate impatience and a fast pace this morning, dear Pisces, but consider that you may be putting too much pressure on yourself (and possibly others) to do things quickly. Pay extra attention to what you say, and be especially cautious getting from one place to another. As the day advances, you can become especially aware of imbalance of power in your interactions, and perhaps more sensitive than usual to any power plays that might surface.
*Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.
Others find your way of expressing yourself especially intriguing and charming. You are forever curious about people and their relationships, and you have an intuitive understanding of relationship dynamics. You are an idealistic person, even if you come across as savvy or possibly sarcastic. It never fails to surprise you when people fail to act with good intentions, even if you can predict it will happen in advance! Somewhat of a worrier, you are often over-thinking matters. Although you are a bit on the dominant side, you can also be very considerate and peace-loving at heart.
Famous people born today: Denzel Washington, Woodrow Wilson, Johnny Otis, Peter Finch, Noomi Rapace, Joe Manganiello, Maggie Smith.
You’re in a more playful and possibly even buoyant mood today, dear Aries. There is an easy ability to express yourself and your feelings. You are generous, open, and forthcoming. As the day moves forward, you might experience a subtle shift in your priorities or your goals as you consider your dreams and ideals and how you might incorporate them into your professional pursuits. Material goals become more satisfying if they are balanced out with endeavors and adjustments that bring you a stronger sense of purpose or meaning. Daydreaming now can actually be very good for the soul. You are drawing upon your intuition, wisdom, and past experience for practical matters and have good business sense.
Taurus
Taurus
There is good energy for spending time with familiar people, dear Taurus. It’s a strong time for activities that boost your feelings of comfort, security, and inner wellness. At the same time, you can be entertaining different dreams of faraway places or new adventures today. There is part of you that is considering making some changes or enhancements to your life experience. You are seeking out different experiences or lines of thought. There can be new, creative ideas, particularly for overcoming problems and negative or distressing situations. It’s a good day for reviewing recently-made plans, particularly those revolving around higher education, travel, and personal or professional expansion.
Gemini
Gemini
There can be a nice focus on connecting, communicating, and learning again today, dear Gemini. You are not ready to commit to any one activity or endeavor, preferring to dabble and enjoy yourself as you do. As the day advances, you’re tuning in to your dreams and ideals. Look for inspiration, as it’s available now if you remain open. Forgiveness and acceptance come more easily now, and can help cleanse you. Try to wind down as much as possible, as an approaching Mercury-Mars square can stimulate your nerves. Care for your body and spirit now by surrounding yourself with positive, reinforcing situations.
Cancer
Cancer
This is a good day for getting centered, establishing priorities, and settling down, dear Cancer. You’re attracted to situations and activities that make you feel more secure and comfortable. Emotions are steadier than usual, and you can fully appreciate what you already have. This is important going forward, as patience can certainly help you to achieve your goals. As the day advances, your sense of what others need or want grows. Rapport with others can be almost telepathic tonight. It’s also a fine time for sharing an idea, belief or dream. Educational or travel plans may come together beautifully now.
Leo
Leo
The Moon is in your sign all day, and your heart tends to rule your head. You can be feeling nostalgic. Your sensitivity, psychic ability, imagination, and intuition are heightened. You can be especially drawn to mysteries or unexplained phenomena now. Especially as the day moves forward, you appreciate a warm, accepting, and hospitable atmosphere. A research matter can fall into place as you seem to hone in on the right information or the picture fills in your mind, and in a general sense as well, you have faith that things will fall in place for you going forward.
Virgo
Virgo
The Moon in your solar twelfth house all day points to some need to withdraw or take extra time to process, think, decide, and act, dear Virgo. Unresolved matters from the past can resurface, and this allows you to better understand where you are now. Your inner landscape is animated today, and as we move towards a Sun-Neptune influence, this is reinforced. Your imagination is enhanced. Good energy is with you for relating to others. There is acceptance now, and recognition that control is only an illusion, which helps you to surrender to the unknown. What will be, will be is the motto for later today! It can help you to relax and enjoy the moment.
Libra
Libra
Your needs for companionship that has few expectations is strong today, dear Libra. You’re inclined to put your social life and happiness goals at the top of your list right now. Even so, there is also good energy with you as the day advances for some level of mental or physical retreat. Seek out the pause that refreshes. You might see a family or work matter in a different, more understanding light. The desire to accept and empathize is strong, and this encourages the kind of patience that benefits you greatly.
Scorpio
Scorpio
You can be in the position of being in charge or in the lead today, dear Scorpio. You may not get away with much today – people are noticing you! It’s a good time to assess your priorities and to take care of some of your duties or obligations. As the day advances, we approach a Sun-Neptune sextile which serves to reconnect us with our spiritual goals, compassion, and intuition. Creative entertainment can be soothing, healing, and especially beneficial now, so aim to let go of duties later today and enjoy some down time. Someone you meet, or who is already in your life, can expand your perspective. There is creative flair to your presentation, particularly your communications, and it can be a good time to make a connection, share ideas, and express your feelings.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
The Moon is in a Fire sign, just like yours, dear Sagittarius, and this all-day influence gently encourages easy expression and emotional satisfaction. As the day advances, we approach a Sun-Neptune sextile that helps us to seek out beauty in our lives. Consciously slow yourself down and tap into this “go with the flow” philosophy. Remind yourself of your most important goals and values. It’s a strong time for assessing your current path and thinking up ways to flesh things out with spiritual and emotional goals in such a way that they are more fulfilling and motivating.
Capricorn
Capricorn
This is a good day for accessing your inner wisdom and your powers of observation, dear Capricorn. For one, the Moon in your intimacy sector tends to stimulate your need to look for the layers of situations and people rather than taking things at face value. For another, the Sun and Neptune are moving towards a harmonious angle, encouraging attention drawn towards your imagination and intuition. As the day advances, sharing some of your expertise with others or reaching out and showing your support makes sense. Act on charitable impulses.
Aquarius
Aquarius
You are able to see others’ perspectives quite easily, dear Aquarius, effortlessly slipping into their shoes. Understanding is a wonderful form of support, so aim to express it. Inner mental imagery can help or hinder you, and is likely to do the former today, particularly as the day advances and we move towards a Sun-Neptune sextile that further enhances your intuition and empathy. You can be feeling strongly about helping others, and volunteering your support or services can be rewarding.
Pisces
Pisces
This is another day for focusing on the routines of your life and the details that need attention, dear Pisces. As the day advances, you’re likely to feel more and more in your element with the Sun and Neptune approaching a harmonious angle. Others are especially supportive of you, especially as you let go of expectations. Accommodating others can be very satisfying as well. You’re less focused on what matters to you and more interested in the bigger or broader picture. It’s easier to empathize with others, and this attracts them to you.

On this day, the Sun will sextile Neptune while Mercury will square off with Mars. Essentially, you’ll feel inspired to pursue your dreams but somehow won’t be able to communicate them to others without aggravating them or yourself in the process. The solution appears to quietly do your thing and avoid the dialogue altogether.
Wednesday, December 30: Venus enters Sagittarius (until January 23)
Then on Wednesday, Venus will enter Sagittarius where she’ll remain until January 23. During this time, matters of the heart become more adventurous and high spirited. You may also focus more on exploring your differences with your partner rather than what you share in common. This is the sweet spot in your relationship after all because it’s where you can grow. Now, you’re willing and able to embrace it.
Friday, January 1: Mercury enters Aquarius (goes Rx on January 5)
On Friday, Mercury enters Aquarius helping you communicate your zany innovative ideas. Or so you would think. The problem is that next week on January 5, he’ll turn retrograde. So even though he’s moved into Aquarius, he’s not feeling very strong. Batten down the hatches and back up your computers in order to prepare for that retrograde crash coming very soon!
Sunday, January 3: Mars enters Scorpio (until March 5)
Finally, the major news happens with Mars. On Sunday, he’ll enter Scorpio where he’ll remain until March 5. During this time you may find yourself motivated to go deeper than you usually do — in just about every facet of life. You’ll want to investigate, research and not take anything at face value. You’ll also feel a more intense and passionate sex drive and might even feel more possessive or obsessive about your lover than usual. As long as it doesn’t turn into fatal attraction (not likely with the happy aspects Mars will make) you’re in for a treat. Cosmic sex, anyone?

The Karmic Tools Weekly Forecast covers the current planetary transits which affect people in different ways and to various degrees of intensity. Take notice when it is a Personal planet (Sun / Moon / Mercury / Venus / Mars) interacting with a Social (Jupiter/Saturn) or Collective planet (Uranus / Neptune/Pluto). And pay extremely close attention when it is a Social planet interacting with a Collective planet because that means something *big* is brewing that will move large groups of people along their evolutionary paths. Tuning in to the energy and rhythm of the planets can serve as a useful *guide* as you move along your Individual Path. It also helps to understand your place within the context of the larger Social & Collective Story. Below, you will find out how these energies tend to manifest, as well as guidance and direction.
*NOTE* There are some days when there are NO CONTACTS (besides the Moon), please note that there are no missing entries, we just list the actual Activations of each week + the day they happen.
Weekly Forecast: December 27, 2015 – January 2, 2016
12/29 ~ Sun (identity) ~sextile~ Neptune (vision):
This energy activates your ability to dissolve the ego (momentarily) and allow your SoulSelf to shine through! Your Spiritual center, base or practice comes up – how is it supporting you? If you’ve gotten away from your practice, this energy will make it easier to connect to your Spirit, your intuition and the vision for your life’s purpose, at this time. You may find where your contribution is most valued, when you step outside your Self and see how others’ needs are important. Find a need and fill it … in your own deliciously unique way, as you will be more giving & compassionate, naturally. Your physical energy may be low as a result of Neptune channeling the Sun’s Source Energy inwardly to re-charge your Spirit. Otherwise, it could be projections of all kinds, yours and other people’s as well. Best to spend some intentional solitude, preferably in nature if/where possible.
12/29 ~ Mercury (thoughts) ~square~ Mars (anger):
This activation can be a tough one for some. If your beliefs are out of alignment with your actions, if you are not self-aware or act-out unconsciously, being selfish or childish, than watch out, because squares test you to grow and change in some way. Often, this also means that you are suppressing your nature in some way, which is never really a good idea. When you suppress your Soul, it can make your human more sensitive and you can tend to take everything personal or as a threat or challenge. If you catch your Self feeling irritable for no apparent reason, try to step back and gain some perspective before responding to your own thoughts or another’s words. Mercury & Mars getting together, in this challenging way, can provoke debates and, in some people, actual fights, so be careful. The deeper aspect of this activation is that some part of you wants to express, perhaps in a new way, and your monkey-mind has got you all off track. Mars demands that you know who you are and what you want and is the Divine Masculine part of you, which is supposed to hold good boundaries, protect you and negotiate on your behalf in the world. If you know something that you are not acting on, this can be frustrating. If you are acting in ways that are not allowing you to think things through, this too can cause accidents, problems and delays. It is best to pull in until you are clear. And also keep in mind, you may not be out of alignment in the above ways, but those around you may be and will likely have no context for what they are feeling and therefore, become indiscriminate with their actions.
