From MoonGiant.com

The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waxing Gibbous phase. Visible through most of the night sky setting a few hours before sunrise. This phase is when the moon is more than 50% illuminated but not yet a Full Moon. The phase lasts about 7 days with the moon becoming more illuminated each day until the Full Moon. During a Waxing Gibbous the moon rises in the east in mid-afternoon and is high in the eastern sky at sunset. The word Gibbous first appeared in the 14th century and has its roots in the Latin word “gibbosus” meaning humpbacked.

Ailm

Transcendence, humility, compassion

Tree: Fir (Abies spp.) or Elm (Ulmus spp.)

Letter: A

Ailm represents the enlightenment that comes of perspective. Its symbol looks like a cross post-resurrection. “He is risen”, meaning He has transcended suffering and has forgiven His persecutors and all mankind to boot. In Iolo Morganwg’s Druid prayer, Ailm is the “love of all existences” that transcends the karmic cycle. Drawing Ailm in any form is a call to look at one’s own personality and to ask “What am I here to learn?” Ailm is a perspective that comes from eons and many, many lives worth of experience. Only lived experience gives us compassion and detachment in balance. Ailm is also the divine aspect of humor. When you laugh an honest laugh rooted in humility, the gods laugh with you.

Though our culture tends to devalue anyone above the age of 40, we can acknowledge wisdom that comes with age, not in every case but reliably enough that it’s a valid stereotype that a person gets “older and wiser.” Having a bunch of lived experience can be quite helpful when it comes to solving life’s problems and making peace with its predicaments. The truly wise neither rush forward with unbalanced optimism nor shrink away with unbalanced pessimism; their information is better than that. They have the ability to read the winds before hoisting sails and attempting to journey across the sea.

Hexagram Thirty – Eight/38

K’uei / Estrangement

Fire distances itself from its nemesis, the Lake:
No matter how large or diverse the group, the Superior Person remains uniquely himself.

Small accomplishments are possible.

SITUATION ANALYSIS:

You are working at cross-purposes with another.
The distance between you is very wide.
The gap can be closed, however, with no compromise of your integrity.
You are not adversaries in this case — just two persons addressing individual needs.
Ask yourself: are these needs mutually exclusive?
Is there common ground here?
Must there be one winner and one loser?
Could you become partners in seeking a solution that would allow for two winners?

Eight

Positive qualities

The positive qualities of the Eight are perseverance, courage and a great business instinct. People of your type control everything that happens in our world. No task is impossible for you, no obstacle invincible. You clearly see every next step both on your path and on the path of progress. Therefore, you know exactly what and when you should do.

You are reliable and impartial. You act tough, but always fair. If you take someone under your wing, this lucky person can consider their life to be well-off, and protection from any problems is guaranteed.

Negative qualities

The most obvious negative qualities of the Eight are arrogance, haughtiness and their habit of putting a slight upon the people who are in a dependent position. Well, there is also a couple of canonical vices like wrath and pride.

All these are the indispensable features of your business life, so they do not cause misunderstanding among colleagues and subordinates. In everyday life, however, such manifestations spoil your image adding some rough and unpleasant features to it. Learning to control yourself, so as not to abuse the family’s angelic patience, would be useful.

Moon Alert

There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The Moon is in Libra.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Slow down and take it easy today. Because you might feel competitive in sports, do what you can to avoid sports accidents. Parents should be vigilant with their kids to avoid accidents. You might impulsively do something about a social occasion or a romance that you will regret. Caution!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Do what you can to avoid accidents and unexpected delays at home today. Definitely make an effort to keep the peace among family members. Harmony is important because today, it’s easy to lash out and then have later regrets. Give everything a sober second thought.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This is an accident-prone day for your sign so pay attention to everything you say and do. Think before you speak and act. Guard against impulsive, rash actions. Be smart and drive defensively. Be aware of ground traffic. Meanwhile, don’t try to coerce others to agree with you. Be reasonable.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Usually, you are prudent with money. Today however, financial decisions, especially if they are made suddenly, could go south in a New York minute. Do not shop impulsively. Take care of what you own. Guard your possessions against loss. A tricky day!

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Today Mars is in your sign at odds with Uranus, which means you feel rebellious and reluctant to follow orders and play by the rules. Your personal independence matters more! This is understandable; nevertheless, pull back and see the big picture. Don’t do anything you will later regret.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Tread carefully today. If you think there is someone out there working against your best interests, you are probably right. Trust your gut instincts. Younger people might listen to your ideas, especially about future plans. If you make changes, don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You might be a bit more emotional today because the Moon is in your sign. However, this also gives you a slight edge over all the other signs. Meanwhile, a friend or a member of a group might catch you off guard. They might do something you least expect. Be prepared.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Parents, bosses and the police might be aggressive with you today. You might be busted for some reason. Certainly, they will do something you least expect, which creates feelings of rebellion or a strong reaction within you. Play your cards close to your heaving bosom.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Travel plans are unreliable today. They might be cancelled, delayed or changed. Possibly, you will suddenly have to travel when you didn’t expect to do so. Likewise, you might have a strong reaction to something about politics or religion. For your own best interest, think before you speak.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is a tricky day for finances. Surprising influences can create detours, mishaps and unexpected events. Make friends with your bank account. Know what’s happening with debt, credit and your financial arrangement with partners. Stay in the know.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Today you feel restless and eager for change. Perhaps this is because a friend, spouse or partner has done or said something unpredictable. Something you didn’t see coming. Guard against a knee-jerk reaction. Be smart and give yourself time to process how you want to respond.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Work events are completely unpredictable today. Expect staff shortages, equipment breakdowns, power outages, late deliveries and possibly a coup or a minor revolt. Things will not flow as you expect them to. Au contraire! This is an unpredictable day related to your job, anything you do, your health and even your pet. Caution!

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Aubrey Plaza (1984) shares your birthday today. You are multitalented. You are intelligent, creative and also interested in science. You’re a great conversationalist who is basically serious. This is a wonderful year for you with opportunities to socialize and enjoy your life! Nurture the happiness and beauty that you have within yourself. Old friends might reappear.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

This Monday’s disposition means you will probably feel a lot more serious than usual. It is a good time for you to turn your face to the past.

Reminiscing will be good for you as long as it helps you clarify some of your troubles. Being melancholic and blocked in your own ways will only make things worse. Don’t let anything hold you back.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This Monday will turn your whole attention to your friends or to people of your own age that you come in contact with.

This means that today you should think of going out with your buddies or even with fellow workers. The feeling of belonging will be of great price for you today and you shouldn’t give up on such occasions, despite this being just the beginning of the week.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This Monday is going to help you target your energy and emotions towards a practical goal. This might be simultaneous with quitting other endeavors that haven’t been of greater use for you lately.

You shouldn’t be changing your direction all of a sudden now but you should be working on it slowly. Good timing for public appearances.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This Monday will make you complete an important endeavor of yours. The most benefited of actions are those involving education or long travel.

Some natives might come home from abroad, for others the vacation might be over while some few will be able to deal with some troubles involving their studies. Avoid counting on other people this day.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This Monday will help you turn your attention towards an important aspect of your life. If there is anything you were searching for or any troubles you met along the way, be sure that today great inspiration will come for you, helping you sort things out.

However, your emotions might be at risk of swinging wildly and you should take some precautions for that.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This Monday will be more of endings and new beginnings for you. It is time for you to face the truth and see what can and can’t be continued.

If there are any disagreements in your love life, maybe it’s time for you to tackle them honestly and see if things are going to work or not. On the other hand it is a good time to create balance and think of personal endeavors.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

The current disposition will force you to make some decisions involving your personal life. If there are things troubling you then it is time to act upon them.

It is the moment to quit the old and start with the new, maybe take some new responsibilities. It is also a moment to see how many of your goals or expectations you have checked by now and which is the path you want to take further on.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

The current disposition will help you with creative endeavors and with taking your projects to the next level.

Make sure you plan on finishing something this day because completions of objectives are benefited in such situations. It is also a good time to think of your hobbies and to update them to your latest passions and interests.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

The current disposition will benefit all those tending to home activities, from serious remodeling or furniture shopping to simple DIYs.

It is also a good time to sit down and have a talk with someone in your family, maybe a distant relative and remember something important. Such discussion might lead to some sort of ruptures but things will be temporary.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

The current disposition will prompt you to deal with small activities, mundane troubles of yours or even short distance travel.

It might not be a good time for important communication as even technology might fail to comply with your needs. Don’t take people for granted but also don’t put all your trust in someone else’s words or help promises.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

The current disposition will help you finalize an agreement or come to terms in an argument you’ve had for some time.

It seems that both parties will have to compromise but it will be for the best outcome eventually. Make sure you don’t leave yourself obliged to anything of great importance and make sure you can respect your part of the deal.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

The current disposition will show you that finally previous actions are showing their consequence. If you have a free heart you know that this means that good things are about to happen and results to come.

If there are things you feel bad for doing, then be sure you will have to respond for them. It’s better to act responsible for the time you have now.

How is Everyone Today?

The date is unimportant.

Another picture from the color by number app I do in the mornings to help my brain wake up more.

I am having a very hard time going to my desk this morning to do the Tuesday’s posts. After finally finishing Monday’s posts yesterday, I had a good cry for about 30 minutes because I was missing my workmate Dreamer so much. So this morning it’s even harder to go sit at my desk without her laying next to it and me. I will get there eventually because I need to get used to a new normal for the WOTC everything.

I wish you all a beautiful and happy day!
