All Signs
When aggressive planets make tough aspects to each other, this can predict scary accidents. However, this is not true for the great majority of the population. For most of us, it means an angry argument, broken equipment or a hasty, regrettable decision. On Thursday, Mars is opposite Saturn, and on Saturday, Mars is at odds with unpredictable Uranus. Yes, this indicates difficulties; but these difficulties will vary within a wide population. Nevertheless, it behooves one to be careful, n’est-ce pas? Of course! Expect the best and plan for the worst I always say! (That’s why whenever I cook for company, I make sure I have lots of milk and Kellogg’s cornflakes on hand.)
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Home and family are your main focus this week, especially your relations with a parent. It’s a busy week with errands and short trips. You want to talk to everyone and express your opinions. On Thursday, children might be an increased responsibility. Lovers’ quarrels are also likely. By Saturday, parents should be extra vigilant to avoid accidents with their kids. Everyone should do what they can to avoid sports accidents and mishaps, as well as delays and cancellations related to social occasions, parties and entertaining. This week is a bit of a rocky road for romance – no question. A feeling of rebellion, especially against restrictions, might make someone suddenly declare, “I’m outta here!”
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
This is a fast-paced week because you have so much on the go! Short trips, increased reading, writing and studying, busy errands plus conversations with siblings, relatives and neighbours not to mention an ambitious To Do list – enough to make one gasp. Meanwhile, you might entertain at home and buy beautiful things for your home as well. However, power struggles within the family might take place midweek. By the end of the week, be particularly careful to avoid problems with appliances, family arguments and domestic accidents or broken items. Slow down and take it easy so that you can stay on top of things with grace and inner control.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Although your primary focus this week is on money, earnings, cash flow and your possessions, nevertheless, this is a dicey week when it comes to your communications with others, especially daily contacts, neighbours and siblings and relatives. Knowing this ahead of time, you can be patient. You can edit your response to others so that you don’t trigger an argument; or perhaps, someone else will trigger an argument and you need to think before you respond so that you can de-escalate things. You will definitely notice power struggles on Thursday. Please note, on Friday/Saturday, there is an accident-prone influence for your sign so pay attention to everything you say and do. Be smart.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
With the Sun in your sign, you continue to attract favourable situations and friendly attention from friends and admirers. (Cancers are such supportive and loyal friends.) Nevertheless, something that you want to be aware of this week is a stressful influence that could impact your earnings, your cash flow or something that you own. For example, power struggles on Thursday about shared property or money or possessions might occur. Towards the end of the week, a source of earnings might be interrupted. Possibly, you will lose or break something that you own. You might even have an argument with someone about the ownership of something – something that is yours! And you know it!
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Primarily, this is a low-key time for you because the Sun is waiting in the wings before your birthday arrives. That’s why this is an excellent week to make some goals for your new year ahead. For many of you, it will be a very different year. Meanwhile, this week is a bit challenging for you because Mars is in your sign and it is at odds with Saturn on Thursday, which will pit you against partners and close friends. Avoid these power struggles and instead be graceful and understanding. (For your own peace of mind.) By the end of the week, do what you can to avoid accidents or unexpected clashes with the police, parents or authority figures. You don’t need this aggro.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Your popularity continues! Enjoy schmoozing with friends and groups this week. Grab every chance to share your hopes and dreams for the future with someone because their feedback might help you. Discussions with authority figures will go well because you are admired. However, something going on behind the scenes might stir up some trouble. Midweek, whatever you try to do might meet with opposition or disapproval. And by the end of the week, something out of the blue might upset your secret plans or your desires to do something. Perhaps it means you have to sit this one out? You can easily do this.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
With the Sun at the top of your chart, you look fabulous to others now. Bosses, parents and important people are impressed with you, even if you don’t do anything special. Because of this advantage, now is the time to act. Make your pitch! However, a very different influence might interrupt a friendship this week. Power struggles with a group or a friend, especially someone older might take place midweek. It might be about kids, social plans, sports, vacations or financial speculation. In fact, this might mushroom into some kind of difficulty so that by the end of the week, a friendship is broken. Or you might quit a group? This could be because you don’t like conflict. When things are too contentious – you want to leave. Understandably so.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
You are still restless for travel and adventure this week, which is why you are up for anything and eager to accept all invitations to fun outings! However, something disconcerting that you might face this week could be power struggles with a parent, a boss or someone in a position of authority – including the police. This clash could take place midweek. In fact, it might increase in intensity so that by the weekend, you are truly at odds with someone to the extent that you make a break. Possibly, this weekend challenge is the displeasure of a boss, the police or someone in authority? This won’t be too bad because lucky Jupiter has your back this year. Basically, this is a fun-loving year for you.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Many details related to shared property, taxes, debt, insurance issues and inheritances continue to absorb your attention. Mercury opposite your sign will help you clarify and explain issues to others. This is good. Nevertheless, you might encounter power struggles in discussions with someone midweek. Be wise and avoid controversial subjects like politics, religion and racial issues. By the end of the week, travel plans might suddenly change or you might encounter unexpected changes with school plans or something to do with medicine and the law. Likewise, these sudden changes or challenges could impact plans for publishing and the media. These areas are right up your alley.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
This week you will need more sleep because the Sun is still symbolically as far away from your sign as it gets all year, and the Sun is the source of your energy. This polarized position of the Sun does however, channel your focus on partners and close friendships. Meanwhile, some kind of dispute about inheritances and shared property or insurance issues might arise midweek. These are never easy. In fact, by the weekend, something unexpected might change everything. Fortunately, Venus is in the picture and Venus wants to protect your interests. This is a good thing. Take things slow and easy but expect the best. Do your homework so that you are well-prepared to defend your best interests, especially financially speaking.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
You are still working hard and feeling a sense of reward because you are getting better organized. Bit by bit, step-by-step. “Every day in every way I’m getting better and better.” This works! However, power struggles with a partner or close friend might arise midweek. Meanwhile, with Mars in your sign, you will stick up for yourself. In fact, repressed grievances might come out into the open. This could be why — by the weekend, some relationships are in trouble. What you have is a situation where someone wants to revolt because they feel angry and they feel restricted. This could be an indication of a need for change. Meanwhile, guard against impulsive, reckless decisions, which feel good in the moment but are later regrettable. (Been there, done that.)
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
You are definitely in a playful mood and keen to party, socialize, enjoy sporting events, which is why you will grab every chance to have some fun. This will also include your enjoyment of playful activities with kids. Romance is rewarding as well. Ah yes, the good life! Having said that, power struggles related to your job might take place midweek. They could grow into a full-blown argument by the weekend that indicates a split with someone. Pet owners should know that midweek and by the weekend, they should keep an eye on their pet to avoid accidents. For some of you, these work challenges could mean equipment breakdowns or computer glitches that are frustrating. Let’s hope for the best!

The Importance of Your Given Name
It is important not to let other’s that could wish or do you harm to know your whole given name. If the person practices the dark or gray or light side of The Craft the name you were given at birth can be
used against you when a Witch/Pagan performs a spell, hex, curse or anything else that might possibly harm you. The flip of the coin a White Witch can use it for good when performing a spell or
charming an item for a specific reason without your knowledge. For these reasons it is best to only let a Witch/Pagan only know your first name if any of your given name at all unless you know and
trust them fully.
Any Witch/Pagan that truly walks in the light and most that walk in the gray will not perform any type of a spell, healing, incantation, etc. for you without your permission. This is just good manners and common curtsey.
When enchanting/charming an object for yourself you should use your whole name in the spell being used. This will ensure it is for you. Example a black stone to gather negative energy and/or an
entity before it reaches you either by attaching itself to your physical body or your aura or your mind or your spirit or just hover close by and causing mischief in your life. Many of us have negative
things hovering around us for one reason or another…Why give them easy access to you?
This is why many Witches/Pagans chose a name to use when in a coven and/or gathering with other Witches.

Using the Elements for the Watchtowers
The Watchtowers are also known as the Guardians of the Cardinal/compass points. The
coincide with the four major compass points North, East, South and West.
Some covens use a single person positioned at each point to call all four Watchtowers.
While others use a group of three and in others the priestess and/or priest call them. It
mainly depends on the covens own traditions.
Solitary witches call the Watchtowers themselves.
When working with the Elements ALWAYS be sure to thank them and send them back from
whence they came. If you fail to release them you will usually find many unexplained things
happening to you, your family and/or in your home, yard or where ever it was you called
them to. Such as a lot of interference with electronic things, sort of background noise you
can’t pin point while on the phones or a host of other things.
You can change the wording to make if feel more your own. In a coven you would call
the Watchtowers however the Priestess and/or Priest teach you to call them for that particular coven. I
sometimes use the following words and other times something else will come out of my
mouth. I try to let my guides lead me when doing anything magickal as they usually know
more of what I need at any given time better than I do.
The Watchtowers are called in for protection just before the Sacred Circle is closed (
opened). The Elements are dismissed before the Circle is closed (opened) at the end of the
ritual. First is a formal way to call the Elements to the Watertowers; followed by a casual
way.
Most covens and solitary witches start at the East Watchtower/cardinal/compass point then
walk clockwise to each of the other directions. It is fine if it feels more comfortable to you to
start at a different point but always walk clockwise after calling the first direction.
Formal way of calling:
Power of ancient dreams, ancestors of the mighty east
Come forth, O guardians of Air.
Let your wings of intelligence my protection be
Hear this call, let my words draw you near.
Lock the gate that none may pass unless
They come in love and trust. Blessed Be!
Power of ancient dreams, ancestors of the mighty south
Come forth, O guardians of Fire.
May your firey breath cleanse my work.
Hear this call, let my words draw you near.
Lock the gate that none may pass unless
They come in love and trust. Blessed Be!
Power of ancient dreams, ancestors of the mighty west
Come forth, O guardians of Water.
May your sweeping waters bring protection all around.
Hear this call, let my words draw you near.
Lock the gate that none may pass unless
They come in love and trust. Blessed Be!
Power of ancient dreams, ancestors of the mighty north
Come forth, O guardians of Earth.
Let the North Star crown your brow.
Hear this call, let my words draw you near.
Lock the gate that none may pass unless
They come in love and trust. Blessed Be!
Causal way of calling:
I call Air to protect the Watchtower of the East and ask to lend your power to my circle.
I call Fire to the Watchtower of the South and ask you to lend your power to my circle
I call Water to the Watchtower of the West and ask you to lend your power to my circle.
I call Earth to the Watchtower of the North and ask you to lend your power to my circle.
I ask the Elements to guard my circle from your Watchtower.
To dismiss the Elements at the end of the ritual and before the Scared Circle is closed:
Starting in the East or whichever direction you called first move counter-clockwise
around to each Watchtower. Saying “_________(name of Element) go back
from where you came with my thanks and gratitude for your protection and help.” When
you have released the last element you would then close (open) your circle.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Because you might feel a bit unsettled or uneasy about something, you will welcome a discussion with someone in the family. It could help. Meanwhile, the rhythm of your day will be interrupted by something – almost certainly. Get ready.
