Moon Alert
Avoid shopping or making important decisions from 1 AM to 3 AM EST today. After that, the Moon moves from Gemini into Cancer.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Be careful because this is a tricky day. You feel confident and upbeat. However, this confidence might get you in trouble with a boss or someone in authority. Do not overestimate something. Keep your eyes open and remain realistic.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
It’s easy to find yourself at odds with others today; even though initially, things begin in a positive, enthusiastic way before they end up like a runaway train. Probably, it’s best to stick to your convictions. Don’t be talked out of anything.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Be careful with money and finances today because you might initially overestimate something; or conversely, underestimate a problem. Either way, this could lead to you finding yourself in hot water. Best to tread carefully right from the get-go. Check your facts.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Today the Moon is in your sign; however, it is at odds with both Mercury and Jupiter. In one way, this makes you happy and confident! Yet in another way, you will be confrontational with someone, or someone might challenge you. Pull in your reins a little.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Even though you might choose to be low key today, and work alone or behind the scenes, nevertheless, you might find yourself embroiled with others in situations that are work-related, or related to shared property or shared responsibilities. Get your facts before you do anything.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
This is a friendly, popular day for you! Nevertheless, as this day wears on, you might find yourself at odds with someone, perhaps a friend, a member of a group, or even a partner or close friend. A dispute with one of your kids is also possible. Assume nothing! Check facts.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Initially, you might be excited to talk to bosses, parents or partners about something because you’re enthusiastic and you want to enlighten others with your discoveries and opinions. (Moreover, people notice you today.) However, others might disagree! Double check that your facts are right.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Be careful with financial discussions today, whether it concerns the wealth of others, shared property, or your own earnings and personal wealth. Either way, something might look better than it is. You might also overlook an important detail. Therefore, tread carefully and double check your facts.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
You are ever the optimist, which is why you look on the bright side of things. However, this is why you have to be careful today because something might initially look promising; however, upon closer inspection you find that it is not. Furthermore, others might challenge your assumptions. Do your homework.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Do what you can to keep the peace with others today because you might find yourself gridlocked with people who don’t agree with you, versus people who are cheering you on. Unfortunately, it could be a lose-lose situation. Therefore, don’t get involved.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
You might be excited about a project today that relates to the arts or creative people working in a group. Possibly it relates to your job. Whatever the case, make sure you know what’s going on because things might not be as they appear. Take off those rose-coloured glasses.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Today, people are misjudging things, to their chagrin. Don’t overestimate something, especially if you are giving facts and figures to bosses, parents and VIPs today. (It will be easy to make this mistake.) Instead, double check your facts first so that you don’t end up with egg on your face. (Ketchup helps.)
If Your Birthday Is Today
Actress Dame Judi Dench (1934) shares your birthday today. You are confident. You address life with energy and vigour. You work hard for what you want. Nevertheless, privately, you are sensitive and softer than you appear. This year is the end of a nine-year cycle, which means it’s time to let go of anyone and anything holding you back. Clear the decks!

Koad represents a point on the map of your life and cause to reflect on what got you there as well as where you are headed. Many factors conspired to bring you where you are today. An entire ecosystem exists in and around you that is as unique as a fingerprint. This ecosystem is neither entirely good nor entirely bad, which is why this Ogham and the rest of the Forfedha (Oir, Uilleand, Phagos, and Mor) are too complex to be read as well or ill-dignified. Koad is one particular harmony/dissonance at this point in your life. If your life is going well in some respects, this could mean a feeling of competence and capability or a feeling of love and being loved. If you are in a time of stress, Koad may represent the s**tstorm whirling around you. Or all of the above could be going on at once.

Hexagram Thirty – Five 35

The Sun shines down upon the Earth:
Constantly honing and refining his brilliance, the Superior Person is a Godsend to his people.
They repay his benevolence with a herd of horses, and he is granted audience three times in a single day.
Promotion.
SITUATION ANALYSIS:
This is a time of reward for good works.
Those you have helped want to show their gratitude.
Benefits come both from on high and from the humble you uplifted.
Accept all gifts graciously, though the reward may not be what you truly need or hoped for.
Some may bestow more than they can afford to give, but you must realize that they need to feel that they have repaid you.

Spell for Today – Eros’s “Passion for Life” Spell
Eros’s “Passion for Life” Spell
Gather a white feather (symbol for Eros and his mighty wings), a rosy pink candle, and a coordinating candle holder.
Carve a simple figure of a bow and arrow on the side of the candle. Place the feather off to the side, away from the heat of the candle flame. Picture the winged god Eros in your mind, and meditate on this image for a moment. Now, ask Eros in your own words to inspire you with passion and enthusiasm. Then repeat the following spell three times:
Eros, winged Greek god of passion and delight
Aid me in my quest for inspiration tonight
Passion is more than sexual, it conveys ambition too
Help me face my challenges and succeed in all that I do.
Allow the candle to burn out in a safe place. Close the spell by saying:
For the good of all, with harm to none
By flame and feather, this spell is done.

Mars Rises above the Lunar Limb
Image Credit & Copyright: Tom Glenn
Explanation: On the night of December 7 Mars wandered near the Full Moon. In fact the Red Planet was occulted, passing behind the Moon, when viewed from locations across Europe and North America. About an hour after disappearing behind the lunar disk Mars reappears in this stack of sharp video frames captured from San Diego, planet Earth. With the Moon in the foreground Mars was a mere 82 million kilometers distant, near its own opposition. Full Moon and full Mars were bright enough provide the spectacular image with no exposure adjustments necessary. In the image Mars appears to rise just over ancient, dark-floored, lunar crater Abel very close to the southeastern edge of the Moon’s near side. Humboldt is the large impact crater to its north (left).
