Daily Tarot Card 6/6/2019

The Sun

Only The World card of the Tarot can match the blessings that come with The Sun. While it certainly doesn’t promise a life’s path without some bumps in the road, The Sun indicates all will be well. The Sun is our Cosmic Nurturer. Life flourishes under its radiant beams. It provides the illumination to find Truths and lights one’s path so they do not get lost. To stand in the rays of The Sun is to shine. To absorb its energy promotes growth, exceptional physical and mental health, and good fortune. The Sun is empowering, elevating and fills those who bask in it with confidence and sense of self-worth.

Saturn in Retrograde: What Does It Mean?

Saturn went retrograde on April 18th, 2018. It will resume normal service on September 6th, 2018. So what does it mean? And how does Saturn in retrograde affect you personally?

Planets in Retrograde

When a planet is in retrograde it means that, from our perspective on Earth, the planet appears to be going backwards. It doesn’t really change direction, yet astrologists believe that retrograde planets do affect us: our moods, behavior, energy, and events around us.

Saturn in retrograde is nothing unusual as the planet spends over a third of our Earth year appearing to travel backwards. You may see references to ‘station’ in connection to retrogrades. This is the time when the planet seems to stop moving, before either seeming to go backwards, or to resume forward movement after a retrograde period has ended.

Qualities of Saturn

Saturn has a bit of a bad rap in the astrology world. It is the planet of structure, authority, and discipline. It’s also connected to feelings of sorrow, heaviness of mood and loneliness. Yet Saturn is also designated as the planet of hidden blessings…

The Sky This Week from May 31 to June 9 333 The Sky This Week from May 31 to June 9

As spring transitions into summer, we get the best of both seasons: The Big Dipper and Beehive star cluster appear prominent in early evening, while the Summer Triangle takes center stage later on.

Tuesday, June 4
You can use Mars as a guide to finding Mercury this week. With binoculars in hand, scan to Mars’ lower right starting about 30 minutes after sunset. Mercury shows up as a bright dot some 9° high in the west-northwest. It shines at magnitude –0.8 and appears obvious to the naked eye once you know where to look. And this evening, a two-day-old crescent Moon hangs 6° to Mercury’s left. If you keep watching as the sky grows darker, the unlit side of the Moon will grow more prominent. This is earthshine — sunlight that reflects off Earth, strikes the Moon, and then bounces back to our eyes. If you return to the scene tomorrow evening, a slighter fatter crescent Moon will lie 6° to Mars’ upper left.

Wednesday, June 5
Jupiter stands out among the background stars of southern Ophiuchus from the time it rises in the southeast shortly before 9 p.m. local daylight time until morning twilight is well underway. The giant planet is near its best for the year right now, reaching opposition and peak visibility next week (on June 10). Jupiter shines at magnitude –2.6, which makes it the brightest point of light in the sky until Venus rises about an hour before the Sun. The best time to view Jupiter through a telescope is when it climbs highest in the south, a position it reaches around 1:30 a.m. The gas giant’s spectacular disk spans 46″, and its dynamic atmosphere shows at least two parallel dark belts.

Thursday, June 6
Neptune rises before 2 a.m. local daylight time and climbs 20° high in the east-southeast as twilight commences. The distant world glows at magnitude 7.9, so you’ll need binoculars or a telescope to spot it. Fortunately, it lies near a brighter star that will guide you. This morning, Neptune stands 1.3° east-northeast of 4th-magnitude Phi (φ) Aquarii. You can confirm your sighting of Neptune through a telescope, which reveals the planet’s 2.3″-diameter disk and blue-gray color.

Friday, June 7
Look high in the northwest after darkness falls this week and you’ll be greeted by the familiar sight of the Big Dipper. The dipper is the sky’s most conspicuous asterism — a recognizable pattern of stars that doesn’t form a complete constellation shape. It represents the body and tail of Ursa Major the Great Bear. Use the Pointers, the two stars at the end of the dipper’s bowl, to find Polaris, which lies due north for everyone north of the equator. Polaris marks the end of the Little Dipper’s handle. On June evenings, the relatively faint stars of this dipper arc directly above Polaris.

The Moon reaches perigee, the closest point in its orbit around Earth, at 7:15 p.m. EDT. It then lies 228,978 miles (368,504 kilometers) away from us.

Saturday, June 8
Glorious Saturn appears conspicuous in the southeastern sky by midnight local daylight time this week. The ringed planet rises around 10:30 p.m. local daylight time and climbs highest in the south by 3 a.m. Saturn shines at magnitude 0.2 and appears significantly brighter than any of the background stars in its host constellation, Sagittarius the Archer. A telescope reveals the planet’s 18″-diameter disk and a stunning ring system that spans 41″ and tilts 24° to our line of sight.

Sunday, June 9
The conspicuous Summer Triangle asterism dominates the eastern sky in late evening. Vega, the triangle’s brightest member, shines at magnitude 0.0 and stands highest of the three stars. To its lower left lies Deneb; at magnitude 1.3, it is the trio’s faintest member. Magnitude 0.8 Altair resides at the bottom right and completes the bright asterism. Despite its name, the Summer Triangle appears prominent from late spring until winter begins

Hope You Had or Having a Terrific Tuesday

Sorry I am getting such a late start today but I’m watching one of my grandsons which means leaving my house about 6:00 AM and being busy until naptime.

I am going to skip the horoscopes for the northern hemisphere since it is so late in the day but I will make it up to all of you tomorrow by doing a couple of different types of horoscopes for you. Speaking of horoscope tell me the top three ones you would want to know on a daily or weekly basis so I can post what you want to read instead of me guessing and putting up onesthat you could care less about reading.

So now to find out the Moon and Planetary positions…

S.H. Today’s Moon Phase

Today – TUESDAY, JUNE 4, 2019

Tommorow the Moon will be in a Waxing CrescentPhase. A Waxing Crescent is the first Phase after the New Moon and is a great time to see the features of the moon’s surface.

Your Zodiac Moon SIgn

The Zodiac Moon Signs are incredibly different from the Zodiac Sun Signs, but both are easily confused with one another. Unlike the Sun Signs, which rule your individuality, the Moon Signs describe your personality. Determined by your date of birth, the Moon Sign explains what you need at a subconscious level. In knowing your Moon Sign, you are better able to understand what you need in your heart, and from your significant other, in order to be happy. In terms of your daily life, the Moon Sign helps you to understand what career, friends or interests would help you obtain the most from life.

Your Crowley Thoth Tarot Card for Today 6/3/2019

trumpsHierophant

The Hierophant

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.

 

N. H. Today’s Moon Phases

TODAY – MONDAY, JUNE 3, 2019

The Moon today is in a New Moon phase. During this phase the Moon is to close to the sun in the sky to be visible. The moon rises and sets with the sun and is not present in the night sky. Because of this the night sky is darker and an excellent time to view other celestial objects. Like the Full Moon, a New Moon happens at a very specific time when the sun and moon have the same ecliptic longitude and it can be measured down to the second it occurs.

*NEW MOON* in GEMINI

Excuse me for this being sloppy I copy and pasted it from an email. By Mystic Mamma’s Full Moon email I’ll figure out how to go to her website Mystic Mamma and get just the information we want without all the ads.

June 3rd 2019   3:02 am PDT
11:02 am BST | 9:02 PM AEDT

Gemini energy is multifaceted, able to perceive through many lenses. Master of shifting between worlds.

There is a lot of moving energy right now, moving parts.

New realities, perceptions and possibilities but so much information can overwhelm our senses. So as we move with this energy of expansion, let’s keep our feet on the ground and use our discernment skills to navigate through.

Aspects to Neptune are making things nebulous and hard to discern. Things might not be what they seem, and illusions can be easily woven.

So step by step, breath by breath, here and now.

With all my love~

::: ASTRAL   INSIGHTS :::
Leah Whitehorse shares: 
“As Neptune is at the apex of the T-square there are illusions, delusions, mirages, lies. Confused.com – yes indeed.

“This lunation is lovely for meetups, long chats with friends about everything and nothing… But overall, we could feel scattered and it’s hard to make decisions in this atmosphere.

“Probably the greatest challenge is that the Jupiter-Neptune square seems filled with promise and we’re so touched by the possibility of something better that we could make errors of judgement.

“… Jupiter and Neptune’s abundance of possibilities and vast array of options could feel very attractive right now. But we absolutely need to keep our feet on the ground….

 
::: TUNING IN :::
Lena Stevens from The Power Path shares:

“This month is about looking forward at how you can be flexible and creative instead of back at what you are losing due to change and unexpected circumstances.

“When change occurs and situations are not what you expected, there is always opportunity to evolve in a positive way, to expand your perception of what is possible and to think outside the box.

“This requires a willingness to adapt, receptivity to something new, and trust that all is moving in the direction of positive personal evolution….

“Krishnamurti like all true rishis and philosophers, based his saying on seeing. With him, the emphasis was always on perception rather than thinking.

“In ordinary usage we sometimes use ‘perception’ and ‘thought’ somewhat interchangeably.

“For Krishnamurti, thought was the function of the mind trapped in time, comparing and calculating, whereas perception had much to do with what one would see directly with a quiet mind, with as little addition or adumbration from oneself as possible, letting the object reveal itself in its own suchness, with its own eyes, as it were.

“There is magic in the power of seeing without thought, that is to say, without comparison, commentary and words.’

“In the Art of seeing lies the miracle of transformation, the transformation of ‘what is.’ the ‘what should be’ never is.

“There’s a vast mystery in the act of seeing.”

JUNE’S FULL MOON

The sweetest full moon of the year is June’s full moon, commonly known as the Full Strawberry Moon. While the full moon itself is inedible, despite how round and delicious it may seem, the Full Strawberry Moon marks strawberry harvesting season in North America. Most Algonquin tribes understood that it was a sign that wild strawberries were starting to ripen and ready for the harvest. Delicious though ripe strawberries may be, June’s full moon has another name that’s even sweeter.

What could possibly be sweeter than strawberries? Try honey. In Europe, June’s full moon was actually known as the Honey Moon. Other European names for it included the Hot Moon, signifiying the beginning of hot summer days, or Hay Moon, because of the first hay harvest. Those names aside, European names for the Full Strawberry Moon overall tend to have sweet, romantic connotations – a good example is the name Full Rose Moon. June’s full moon is also called Mead Moon, which could refer to the mowing of meadows during summer, but there’s another more romantic interpretation as well.

In Europe, it’s traditional to gift mead or honey to a newlywed couple during their first moon of marriage. The name Honey Moon itself has now become a common word in the English language, used to refer to the honeymoon holiday that couples go on right after they’re married. It used to be that newlyweds in ancient Europe would go on a sweet romantic holiday around the time of June’s full moon, because the moon phases were seen as a symbol for the phases of a marriage, with the full moon signifying the fullest and happiest part, the wedding itself.

The Full Strawberry Moon is tied to romance and marital bliss all around the world. In India, for example, June’s full moon is celebrated as Vat Purnima, where married women perform a ceremonial ritual to show their love for their husbands. Vat Purnima is based off a legend from the Mahabharata, about a beautiful woman, Savitri, who is determined to save her husband, Satyavan, who is doomed to die an early death. Savitri fasts for three days before Satyavan dies, upon which she successfully negotiates with the King of Hell for the resurrection of her husband. Similarly, married women nowadays dress up in beautiful saris, fast, and tie a thread around a banyan tree seven times to wish that their husbands will lead long, happy lives.
It is no wonder, then, that the Pagans also call June’s full moon the Lovers’ Moon. This is an excellent time to work on the connections in your life, romantic or otherwise, by showing affection to your loved ones and allowing yourself to be vulnerable to encourage intimacy in your relationships. During this Honey Moon, some Hoodoo practitioners will even use honey in magic rituals to sweeten other people’s feelings towards the practitioner. An example of a sweetening ritual is to pour honey into a saucer containing the target’s name, before lighting a candle on top of it. Another example of a honey ritual is to tie two poppets together with honey between them, in order to heal a broken relationship between two people. Honey rituals aside, true magic may happen when you invest your time and effort during this month to work on your relationships and appreciate the love you have in your life.
