We were notified by the water company last week that they would be flushing out the system in our area today. Basically it means they go around and open up all the fire plugs and let the water fly. When they do that, somehow the houses in that area’s water flow just stops. In other words, within 15 minutes we will be without water for a few hours while they flush the system. And when they flush the system, we can’t flush the toilets. We have a few ladies that have an upset stomach and they have been in the bathroom quite a bit this morning. So I don’t believe we really want to stay here if we have no water.

So with that in mind, we are going to run and hopefully tomorrow will be a normal dayl I would also like to remind you to remember the Elder ladies that desperate need our help to keep their power on. We only like a little bit and we will be able to pay their utility bill. Remember these ladies are 82 and 84 years old, they can’t afford to go without heat. They shouldn’t have to go without heat. No matter what you can give, it will be deeply apppreciate. Every nickel, dime, penny adds up. So if you can give anything to help these ladies out, they would appreciate and I would appreciate it from the bottom of my heart.

Till tomorrow…..

Love ya,

Lady of the Abyss

FEBRUARY’S SUPERMOON PUSHES YOU TO BE YOUR BEST SELF

• RACHEL CELESTE HANSEN

At 7:53 a.m. PST on February 19, 2019, the full moon will be in Virgo.

Full moons often help us to see the big picture. But under the light of the Virgo supermoon—which occurs when the orb is at its closest point to Earth, the urge to gaze is slated to be even stronger—we may have trouble seeing the forest for the trees.

That’s because, as this lunation puts everything under the microscope, we’re called to notice details that typically go overlooked. And while some of them are flattering, focusing on the flaws is human nature.

No matter how satisfied we are in our lives, for most of us, there’s still a discrepancy between how things should be and how they actually are—and that gap may seem especially wide during this full moon. Just remember, we’re all still works-in-progress, so before you criticize, make sure it’s constructive!

WHAT DOES THE FULL MOON IN VIRGO MEAN?

Virgo’s intentions are pure—all it really wants is to help us be our best selves. But under this sign’s influence, the standards we set for ourselves (and others) can be ridiculously high.

Fortunately, with the sun in Pisces opposite this full moon, it’s easier to forgive each other’s shortcomings. We all miss the mark sometimes, but most of us are trying our best—so we may want to give each other the benefit of the doubt.

That doesn’t mean we have to tolerate bad behavior, though. Virgo is all about personal integrity—so if our actions are out of alignment, this full moon will reveal the error of our ways and put us back on track.

True, it’s not always easy to tell right from wrong. But discerning Virgo helps us cut through all the confusion and find the clarity we need to make wise decisions.

Just be careful not to overthink things—with so much information to process at this full moon, it’s easy to succumb to analysis paralysis. Decide what’s really important…then take a deep breath and let the other stuff go.

HOROSCOPES FOR THE FEBRUARY 2019 FULL MOON IN VIRGO

VIRGO

As far as you’re concerned, Virgo, there’s always room for improvement. But while your self-care game is strong—diet, exercise, meditation, an occasional trip to the spa—that’s not exactly the same thing as self-love. In fact, sometimes it’s just one more thing to stress about! This full moon reminds you that you’re beautiful, just the way you are.

LIBRA

Like no one’s watching, Libra—that’s the only way to live at this full moon. After all, you’ve been doing your best to live up to other people’s standards, but the ones that really matter are your own. So how well are you measuring up? Be as honest as you can—you’ll serve others better by being authentic than by trying to be perfect.

SCORPIO

Why leave anything to chance, Scorpio? We know you like to be prepared…but still, there’s something to be said for not planning everything down to the last detail. At this full moon, you’ll have a lot more fun if you leave some room for serendipity. Intriguing opportunities may present themselves—if they do, just say yes!

SAGITTARIUS

You’re an unlikely homebody, Sag, but right now, all you want is to stay in and chill! With career pressures piling up at this full moon, domestic life can seem like a sweet escape. Still, if you’re constantly fantasizing about leaving it all behind, you may want to think about building a career you won’t feel the need to escape from.

CAPRICORN

We’d like to give you the benefit of the doubt, Capricorn. But as objective as you try to be, we’re all guilty of applying double standards at times—or having unconscious biases that cloud our vision. This full moon reveals a few of your own. Fortunately, though, it also supports you in holding yourself to a higher standard.

AQUARIUS

You promised yourself you’d never sell out, Aquarius—and we’ve got to say, your integrity is pretty damn impressive! Still, every now and then, it’s worth reevaluating how realistic your principles actually are when applied to everyday life. This full moon gives you a better idea of the real-world financial situations and power dynamics you may be dealing with.

PISCES

We’ve all got our blind spots, Pisces, especially when it comes to seeing ourselves. Fortunately, the people closest to us have a way of bringing these things into focus. We’re not just talking about the flaws, either—at this full moon, loved ones can also help you to see the beauty in yourself that’s all too easily overlooked.

ARIES

Check yourself before you wreck yourself, Aries! You may think you can get away with anything, but if you cross the line, this full moon won’t hesitate to give you an attitude adjustment. The more you cooperate, the better off you’ll be—so stay humble, take responsibility for yourself, and make sure you’ve really got the best intentions at heart.

TAURUS

Simple pleasures are what you live for, Taurus. But when you see people out there on social media living their best lives, sometimes you worry you’re missing out—even if you know it’s not your cup of tea. At this full moon, there’s no need to overthink things. Stop comparing yourself to others, and just enjoy what you love.

GEMINI

Fake it till you make it, Gemini—sometimes, this is useful advice. But when it comes to integrity, there’s no substitute for the real deal. At this full moon, you’re painfully aware of the gap between the person you are and the person you’d like to be, but you’re in also in a uniquely powerful position to do something about it.

CANCER

Someone’s go-to work out the details, Cancer—and more often than not, that person is you—so your preoccupation with practical matters is totally understandable. But even when you don’t have it all figured out, the universe has its own ways of making it work! This full moon helps you focus on what’s most important and stop sweating the small stuff.

LEO

Only the best for you, Leo! At this full moon, it’s important to know your own worth.  But if you’re looking for it in money, possessions, or other status symbols, you’re looking in the wrong place. It’s the purity of your heart and your devotion to doing what’s right that make you true royalty—and nothing can take that away.

COSMIC CALENDAR

• FEBRUARY 18, 2019

Think like a winner during a significant day when several celestial link-ups require your attention. Chiron re-enters Aries (1:11 a.m.) until 2027 while Pallas stops at 30 degrees of Libra (8:41 a.m.) to go retrograde until May 30. Chiron and Pallas archetypes deserve your study and reflection. Chiron has a strong association with wounds and pains (physical or psychological), holistic healing and alternative medicine, twilight zones, keys opening doors to higher consciousness, shaman-mentor roles, mavericks and catalysts, and building rainbow bridges between the material and spiritual dimensions of life. Regarding Pallas, think more about these qualities: problem-solving, strategy sessions, brainstorms and ingenious inventions, engineering, scholarly research, games of skill and mental prowess, the immune system, DNA and the genetic code.

Beyond the dynamism of Chiron and Pallas themes, do your best to safely handle Venus uniting with Saturn at 17 degrees of Capricorn (2:53 a.m.), the sun entering Pisces (3:05 p.m.), and Mercury uniting with Neptune at 16 degrees of Pisces (10:38 p.m.). A healthy balance between dealing with practical matters and tuning into spiritual guidance is the right way to proceed.

Flowing trines from the sun to Pallas (2:53 a.m.) in air signs and the moon to Jupiter (4:01 p.m.) in fire signs are inspiration-packed aces to keep up your sleeve in order to neutralize an increase in stress.

[Note to readers: All times are calculated as Pacific Standard Time. Be sure to adjust all times according to your own local time so the alignments noted above will be exact for your location.]

What Is a Supermoon and When Is the Next One?

Full Moon 19 February 2019 – Freedom!

The full moon on Tuesday February 19, 2019 is in the first degree of Virgo. The Full Moon February 2019 astrology is exciting, adventurous and sexy. It joins the courageous fixed star Regulus and is in good aspect to the liberating conjunction of Mars and Uranus.

The February 2019 full moon brings opportunities for change, romance and success. This is wonderful timing because it follows on from the good news, good luck February 4 new moon. It is such a rare thing to have consecutive moon phases with so much potential.

Full Moon Meaning

A full moon occurs when the Sun is opposite the Moon. This highlights opposing forces or polarities in your life such as your work versus home, or what you need versus what you want. Inner tension and external pressures can lead to personal conflict and crises that drain your energy. Your home, family and intimate relationships comes into sharper focus following a full moon.

The lunar qualities of emotions and instincts reach their peak at a full moon. Use you increased emotional strength and intuition to overcome any relationship challenges. Subconscious awareness allows for an impartial and balanced look at your personal relationships. You will clearly see any relationship dynamics or negative feelings causing disharmony.

A full moon has a relationship to the previous new moon. Your February 4 new moon goals can now be fine-tuned or completed, it is harvest time. You can make emotional adjustments in response to those new goals. Full moon February 2019 lasts for two weeks up to the March 6 new moon.

Full Moon February 2019 Astrology

The February 19 full moon at 00°42′ Virgo Sign is conjunct the mighty fixed star Regulus in the Heart of the Lion, Leo Constellation. So this is a strong, sexy and daring full moon. The Moon also makes the bountiful trine aspect (120°) to a Mars Uranus conjunction. This exciting and revolutionary alignment compliments the bold nature of Regulus.

Regulus Full Moon

Fixed star Regulus at 00°05′ Virgo Sign gives courage, independence, ambition, success, power and fame. It is the star of royalty, generals, presidents, sex symbols, athletes and astrologers. Regulus makes people competitive, aggressive, generous and open-minded.

However, the success, brash self-confidence and frankness of Regulus breeds envy, hatred and powerful enemies. Not so long ago, to become the king you had to kill the king. Donald Trump has Ascendant and Mars conjunct Regulus. He will be on the front foot and especially combative during this eventful two-week moon phase.

According to Robson ^[1], Moon conjunct Regulus gives occult interests, powerful friends, gain by speculation and public prominence, with great power, honor and wealth. But such benefits seldom last and there is danger from enemies and false friends, violence, trouble and sickness. Regulus with the Moon also makes women high-spirited and independent.

Leo Constellation is associated with royal events, especially the ascension or death of kings and queens, the election or death of heads of state, assassinations, uprisings, massacres, currency, the stock exchange, the Vatican and the European Union.

The precession of the equinoxes explains why full moon February 2018 is in the Sign of Virgo but the Constellation of Leo. The planets and fixed stars influence your life, not 12 imaginary divisions on a piece of paper.

Full Moon Planets

The full moon February 2019 astrology chart below shows Mars conjunct Uranus connected to the full moon by the harmonious blue trine aspect. There is another significant planetary alignment shown below. Mercury conjunct Neptune is sextile Venus conjunct Saturn. But the most important influence on the full moon is the Mars Uranus conjunction.

Mars conjunct Uranus gives a strong urge to break free of limiting conditions. On its own, this is an erratic, unpredictable and volatile conjunction. However, the harmonious aspects to the Sun and Moon lower the risk of reckless behavior and upsetting events. This means you can let your hair down and take a few risks. Let this full moon spice up your life with change, excitement and adventure.

Trust your instincts and follow your passionate desires. You can fully express your kinky side under this sexually provocative influence. Open mindedness and experimentation could be sexually liberating, reinvigorate an exiting relationship, or bring a passionate new romance. A lowering of inhibition will bring greater personal freedom and unexpected opportunities.

This is a good full moon to get new projects off the ground with a burst of daring energy. Although your fighting spirit and adrenaline will eventually fade, you can get new projects to a state where that initiative is no longer required.

Mercury conjunct Neptune on its own can bring confusion, fear, deception and scandal. But the sextile to Venus Saturn brings sensitivity, romance, sensuality, karmic attraction and creative imagination.

Venus conjunct Saturn on its own can bring sadness, loneliness and lack of affection. But the sextile to Mercury Neptune brings companionship, true love, reassurance, loyalty and commitment.

Together, the alignment of these four planets brings compassion, healing, selflessness, clairvoyance and spirituality. This is a good full moon for dreaming, psychic awareness and learning occult subjects like astrology and Tarot.

Full Moon Summary

Both Regulus and the Mars Uranus conjunction have the potential to bring irritation, rebellion and violence. But their high-spirited, lusty and outgoing natures complement each other to bring positive change, adventure and excitement.

In a similar way, the negative influences of Mercury conjunct Neptune and Venus conjunction Saturn are alleviated by the sextile aspects that link them.

This means the incredible amount of energy created by Regulus, the full moon and the three planetary conjunctions, combine in a complementary way that is more harmonious, safe and user-friendly than each on its own.

So full moon February 2018 brings exciting opportunities that will make you feel more alive and free. Many separate things which have confused, scared or depressed you will seem to come together and make sense. It should restore your faith that God, or the Universe, does have a plan for you.

Astronomy for the Week of February 18 thru February 23

Monday February 18

• 2:54 am – Sun sextile Uranus from Saturday to Wednesday brings pleasant surprises and stimulating encounters. This is a good time to try something new and exciting, and you should have enough freedom to be able to do this. Increased self-awareness can come through flashes of insight or through feedback from personal interactions. Creativity is stimulated and you should feel comfortable expressing the more flamboyant, or kinky side of your personality.
• 5:51 am – Venus conjunct Saturn at 16 ♑ 46 from Saturday to Wednesday can bring isolation, sadness and privation. You will find it difficult to express love and affection, but easy to be cold and mean. Relationships suffer the most with this transit but you can also experience some financial hardship at this time. An existing relationship may be tested by distance or separation, and a general inability to connect at the emotional level.

Tuesday February 19

• 01:36 am – Mercury conjunct Neptune at 15 ♓ 34 from Sunday to Wednesday will focus your thinking and communications on spiritual topics, mysteries, the occult and secrets. It would be the ideal time to take up studies in artistic subjects because of your enhanced imagination and creativity. Valuable insights can be gained through meditation, dreaming, and practicing occult fields like astrology and Tarot.
• 09:46 am – Moon enters Virgo
• 10:53 am – Full Moon at 00 ♍ 42 is exciting, adventurous and sexy. It joins the courageous fixed star Regulus and is in good aspect to the liberating conjunction of Mars and Uranus.

It is such a rare thing to have consecutive moon phases with so much potential.
• 09:39 pm – Mercury sextile Saturn from Monday to Thursday is excellent for anything requiring clear thinking, good judgement and organization skills. Catching up on paperwork, studying and research will also benefit from increased concentration and a good memory. Business dealings are favored with this being a good time to sign contracts or enter into negotiations.

Thursday February 21

• 9:17 am – Moon enters Libra

Friday February 22

• 03:39 pm – Mercury square Jupiter from Thursday to Sunday creates high hopes for the future which makes this a good day or two to make plans while you have this positive and broad outlook. But while you will have a widely encompassing view or your position at the moment, it will be important to focus on the smaller details. A lack of concentration, or inability to focus, may lead to some errors of judgement or mistakes.
• 10:52 pm – Venus conjunct Pluto at 22 ♑ 17 from Thursday to Sunday dramatically increases your need for love and affection. You want to experience companionship at a deeper, more intense level. This can lead to problems if you are single, but this weekly horoscope can also throw a spanner in the works of a healthy relationship if you play your cards the wrong way. You will be wielding greater power to attract friends and lovers.

Saturday February 23

• 10:55 am – Moon enters Scorpio
• 12:17 pm – Mercury sextile Pluto from Thursday to Sunday adds depth and intensity to your thinking and conversations. More serious or mysterious topics will take up your attention so this is a good time for study and research. The probing and penetrating nature of your mind can uncover secrets and plots. Learning more about astrology or psychology would interest you, and you would pick it up much easier than normal.

I wanted a President’s Day poem but have you ever tried to find a decent President’s Poem? I can tell you, they don’t exist. So I opted to go with something witchy.

We Are Witches All

We sing and dance and hold our rites,
We live and love together.
We go sky-clad or wear our outer robes
If it is chilling weather.
About the altar we do dance;
We praise The Gods
We love and ever do, we give
Our thanks to the sun.
And moon above, We are The Craft;
Love The Craft; We are Witches All.
Join us.. In Our Circle For We Are Witches All.
Walk into our Circle and feel the love Bound,
And Meet The Lord and Lady who guide us in our Rounds;
” An’ Harm None, Do What Thou Wilt.”
It is The Wiccan Rede.
We fear no foe for love we show,
In thought and also Deed.
Our words of thanks, our songs of praise,
We offer them in pray’r.
We sing their praise, we ask their help;
We know that they are there.

—-Pagan Library

Good morning, my sweets! It is Monday, February 18th, Presidents’ Day! Since it is Monday morning, I will ask you, do you want the good news first or the bad news first? Really there is no bad news, basically everything is lovely and I have a lot of thank you notes to write. Even though we have received a lot of donations, we are still $100 short on helping the two elderly Pagan sisters out I told you about yesterday. We are close enough to pay their entire electricity bill through the month of March. I figure if we get it paid through March, warmer months will be here and their light bill will not be that outrageous. I am hoping and praying with all my heart that the light company is closed today so we can come up with the rest of the money to pay these lovely ladies’ bill. So you will have to forgive me today, I think most of you know me well enough, that you know when I get on a certain topic, I am worse than a dog with a bone. With that said, after each post today will be a donate button to finish out the remaining balance of these ladies’ light bill. I also figure that if we are able to pay their light bill through March that they will have enough income to buy groceries with. That is one worry that is always on my mind with these two women, that they have enough to eat. I know when people get older they forget to eat at times or don’t have the money to buy the food needed because of medicine. We get their light bill paid, I know they will have the money themselves to at least feed themselves. That will be one worry off my mind anyway. Like I said, please forgive but I am that dog after the bone, there will be donate buttons on each post today. I figure there might still be some that would like to donate but didn’t have the funds or know where to donate at. Today, it will be easily accessible. Thank you to all of you who have donated so far, it means the world to me and I know it will certainly mean the world to these two sisters.

I was talking to Lady Beltane this morning. She called to see if I had needed the funds raised yet for the two sisters. We got to talking and after we hung up, I got angry. Don’t get me wrong, it was not at Lady B at all, it was at the light company. I honestly believe by the time this whole mess is over with I will be in jail. I mean seriously the more I think about it, the madder I get. I told you I looked up the laws in regards to disconnecting people’s lights. I read them to the supervisor and that b*tch told me, “they didn’t matter to them, they were a Co-Op and they could do what they wanted.” Just who the heck do these people think they are. Seriously, they are above the law. I don’t think so and I be darned if they aren’t going to find that out. I wrote the Country Judge, the County Attorney and the Commonwealth of Kentucky’s Attorney General in regards to this matter. I told them that we have a Co-Op that thinks the law does not apply to them. I have already heard back from the State’s Attorney. He was very curious as to why the laws wouldn’t apply to this power company. He gave me his word that he would contact them. What the outcome will be who knows. Hell, they might come out and cut our power off next for making such a stink. But I really don’t care. If the power company thinks it is above the law then I seriously believe it should be taken down a notch or two. I plan on going to their next meeting since I am a member and supposedly part owner in the company. That is the way the Co-Ops work around here. You live in the area, you are a member(whether you like it or not) and part owner. Another topic I am going to bring up is as members we are suppose to get a check from the Co-Op every year. This check is suppose to be dividends the company has earned throughout the year. They are suppose to given its members a share of those dividends by check. I talked to several of our neighbors out here and even the Post Master and asked them if they had ever received a check from the power company. Their answer was the same as ours, NO! Half of them didn’t even know we were suppose to receive a check from the power company. Guess what, those people want to know where those checks are and they have also agreed to go to the meeting with me. It ought to be one heck of a meeting. As we like to say around here, “the fur is goin’ fly.”

The very idea of shutting off two elder women’s power in the middle of Winter has got my dandruff up bad. As if I need anything else to get my dandruff up these days. All I would like to see us do is raise the last $100 so we can get these dear ladies power bill paid through March. Then I will leave you alone, I promise. I guess I have been calling these ladies by the wrong name, they are Elders in our Pagan community. As Elders, I know personally, I feel like I owe them something. They have did so much for the local community during their lifetime. I guess knowing them personally even makes it more important to me that we try to help them as best we can.

When you see the donation button, please don’t get angry with me or upset. I just feel obligated to do something for these women. They have been a mentor to me and numerous other witches over the years. They have been a great asset to the Pagan community and to see them go without heat, I can’t stomach the thought. They have done so much and asked for so little. I believe we should treat our Elders with respect and honor them as they should be. We owe them so much. I know personally, I have learned a great deal from these two Elders. I would like to try and pay them back anyway I can.

Now if I don’t stop talking, we won’t get anything done today. I just wanted to tell you the good news and also let you know why you would be seeing donate buttons today. We are so close and like that old dog with a bone, I can’t quit till I have that bone. Now I am off to work.

Happy President’s Day, my precious family,

Love ya,

Lady A
