Saturday

The planetary correspondence for Saturday is Saturn. Matters dealing with the public, farming, family ties, legal matters (such as wills and estates), taking care of debts, dealing with lawyers, financing, joint money matters, real estate, older people, banishing or binding negativity, and getting rid of bad habits all fall under the charge of Saturn. It’s easy to see why “Saturday’s child works hard for his living.”

Saturday’s angels are Cassiel, Machatan, Uriel, and Orifiel. Cassiel is the angel of solitudes and tears. He is one of the rulers of the planet Saturn and occasionally appears as the angel of patience. Cassiel links himself to dragon energy. Regarding Machatan, the only information we get is that he works well with Cassiel and is also a power of Saturn. Orifiel is an angel of the wilderness, a ruler of the second hour of the day, and also associated with Saturn.

On Saturday, the hour of sunrise and every eight hours after that are also ruled by Saturn, and that makes these times of the day doubly blessed. These four hours are the strongest four hours for conducting ritual. Check the local newspaper, astrological calendar, or almanac to determine your local sunrise.

The Sky For The Weekend of June 3rd

Friday, June 3

• The Moon reaches perigee, the closest point in its orbit around Earth, at 6:55 a.m. EDT. It then lies 224,402 miles (361,140 kilometers) away from us.

Saturday, June 4

• Another comet in the growing crowd of such objects discovered by the Pan-STARRS telescope in Hawaii makes its appearance in June’s morning sky. Comet PANSTARRS (C/2013 X1) currently glows around 7th magnitude in southern Aquarius. As a bonus today, the comet’s head lies less than 1° east of the Helix Nebula (NGC 7293) while the comet’s tail grazes this bright planetary. From most of the United States, you’ll need a haze-free southeastern horizon to spot the comet through a telescope shortly before dawn breaks.

• New Moon occurs at 11:00 p.m. EDT. At its new phase, the Moon crosses the sky with the Sun and so remains hidden in our star’s glare.

Sunday, June 5

• Mercury reaches greatest elongation today, when it lies 24° west of the Sun and stands 6° high in the east a half-hour before sunrise. The innermost planet shines at magnitude 0.5 and shows up easily through binoculars if you have an unobstructed horizon. When viewed through a telescope, Mercury appears 8″ across and about one-third lit.

Great Goddess, Divine Mother

Be with our brothers & sisters in Texas

Those who have lost everything due to raging rivers and floods.

Be with the family, friends and fellow servicemen & women

who have lost their fellow comrades and friends in their recent

tragedy at Fort Hood.

 

Almighty Goddess, Divine Mother,

Bless all those who are suffering this day that we do not know about,

We ask that You ease their pain

And soothe their battered spirits

Give them the strength, courage and faith to continue on

during such difficult times.

Embrace them in your compassionate arms, Divine Mother.

Let them feel Your love and comfort,

Reassure them that a better day will come again.

Reassure those who have lost loved ones that we will

all meet again in a much better place.

Give them hope, courage and help them find peace

in these very difficult days.

Let them know they are not alone,

For You are with them

And their Brothers & Sisters of the Craft

are also with them.

 

Almighty Mother,

Stretch out your arms and let all the suffering end,

Embrace them in your love and give them hope.

We ask this as Your Children and Brothers & Sisters

Of those who have been through so much.

Let it end, dear Mother,

Let it end.

So Mote It Be.
