November 24, 2024 Current Moon Phase for the Northern Hemispheres

Source: nineplanets.org

The current moon phase for November 25th, 2024 is the Waning Crescent phase.

On this day, the moon is 23.33 days old and 31.15% illuminated with a tilt of -25.339°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 404,129.53 km and the moon sign is Virgo.

The Moon phase for November 25th, 2024 is a Waning Crescent phase. This is the phase where the moon is less than 50% illuminated but has not yet reached 0% illumination (which would be a New Moon).

In this part of the moon cycle, it is getting closer and closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing earth with a decreasingly thin crescent being illuminated.

The waning (shrinking) crescement Moon will rise at around midnight, transit the meridian after sunrise, before setting after noon. This phase is best viewed 1-2 hours before sunrise and is a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the illuminated crescent you can see the craters and mountains of the moon casting long shadows.

The Waxing Gibbous phase, like all moon phases, will last for just over 7 days. The actual length will vary because of the elliptical shaped orbit of the moon. During this Waxing Gibbous phase the moon will rise in the east in the mid- to late-afternoon and will be high in the eastern sky at sunset.

Assuming it’s a clear night, the Waxing Gibbous moon will then be visible through most of the night before setting just before sunrise.

Fun fact: the illuminated side of a waning crescent moon is always pointed eastwards, towards the sunrise.

The Summerland and the Afterlife: The Beauty of Rest and Rebirth

The concept of an afterlife has captivated human imagination for centuries, offering solace, hope, and a glimpse into what lies beyond our earthly existence. In Wicca, the idea of the afterlife is embodied in the beautiful concept known as The Summerland. Join us as we explore these beliefs and their significance in Wiccan spirituality.

What Is The Summerland?

The Summerland is the Wiccan term for the afterlife, described as a peaceful and joyous place where souls go to rest and rejuvenate before being reincarnated into their next life. It is said to be a realm that exists in parallel with our physical world, accessible only through death or astral projection.

History of the Summerland

In Wiccan belief, The Summerland symbolizes a time of transition, where the soul can bask in the divine energy of nature and experience spiritual growth.

This realm holds immense significance for many Neopagans such as practitioners of types of Wicca and other traditions of witchcraft. It serves as a reminder that life is a cyclic journey, where death is not an end but a part of the eternal dance of creation and rebirth. The Summerland represents the eternal return of life, a place where souls find solace and prepare for their next adventure on the wheel of life.

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or important decisions after 9:15 PM PST today. The Moon is in Virgo.

The Stars Rate Your Day

5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

Aries (March 21-April 19)

*** Owners should be vigilant today because something unexpected related to your pet might occur. Keep your eyes open. Likewise, anything related to your job might suddenly go sideways in a New York minute. Stay on your toes! On the whole, this is a positive, energetic day.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

**** Parents should be extra vigilant today because this is a potentially accident-prone day for your kids. Meanwhile, social plans might suddenly change. They could be cancelled, delayed or alternatively, you might receive an unexpected invitation? Act fast because this window of opportunity will be brief.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

*** Your home routine might change today. Small appliances might break down or a minor breakage could occur. Someone unexpected might knock at your door. Stock the fridge because if there’s food on hand, everyone can cope better. (Ain’t it the truth?)

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

*** Pay attention to everything you say and do today because this is a mildly accident-prone day for you. On the upside, you might learn something new because you feel experimental. New faces, new places and new ideas will intrigue you.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

*** Keep an eye on your money and your possessions today to avoid loss, theft or damage because something unexpected could impact your wealth. For example, you might find money; you might lose money. You might also have an interesting moneymaking idea? Who knows?

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

**** This is a restless day for you. Quite likely, you will spontaneously do something and go off in a new direction, which is just fine. That’s because the Moon is in your sign dancing with unpredictable Uranus. It’s a perfect day to encounter new friends or to meet unusual people. “Hi Darth.”

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

*** You might feel restless today. You have that feeling that you’re waiting for the other shoe to drop. A sense of anticipation will pervade this day and yet, you might not know why. Don’t worry about this. Relax. Focus on fun conversations with others. Tweak your digs at home.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

*** Today a friend or even a member of a group might do or say something that surprises you. Perhaps they are going to change their mandate? Are these your people? Or possibly, you will meet someone today who is a real character – avant-garde or unusual. It’s not a boring day.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

*** Be on the lookout today because bosses, parents, teachers and the police – all authority figures – might suddenly throw a curveball at you. (“Busted!”) Be ready for the unexpected. If necessary, keep a low profile if you don’t want to take any chances. And why do that?

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

**** Some opportunities to travel might fall in your lap today. Alternatively, scheduled travel plans might suddenly change or be delayed. If you’re picking someone up at the airport – double check details. You might also be surprised by something you learn today, perhaps in the media.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

*** Keep an eye on issues related to shared property, inheritances, insurance matters and banking. Know what’s happening. Very likely, something you didn’t expect could impact these areas, and if you are not aware of it, it could cost you money. Or it might be a windfall?

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

*** This is a tricky day because people who are closest to you are quite unpredictable. They might be charming – or they might not be. They might be moody. It’s also possible that you will be introduced to someone who is unusual or highly individualistic. This could interest you because you are intrigued by characters.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Collin Hanks (1977) shares your birthday today. You are alive, alert and full of positive energy. You’re confident, with your own views and ideas. This is a year of learning, teaching and reflection. You might renew your spiritual or religious beliefs. Explore philosophies that give you a better sense of your own self-awareness.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You seem to have adopted quite a rational attitude in regard to what can be achieved in a short period of time and you will probably use this Sunday to realign your plans to the latest unveil of information.

You are quite calm and act in a composed way and this might probably come as a surprise for those around. In terms of love, the more relaxed you are the more chances to romance will present themselves to you.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

It seems that lack of rest is finally putting a toll on you and not only you will feel weakened, but you won’t even be in the mood for relaxing activities you would otherwise very much enjoy.

Interesting to see if you will figure that the answer to your lack of mood is sleep or that you will continue to act in a begrudged way to anyone who tries to chance how you feel.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

The current disposition will favor your tone to be heard and not only in the family setting. What I would suggest is to take advantage of this but at the same time don’t exaggerate with the plans you are throwing outside.

This is not a moment for you to test the acceptance of others and to see exactly how far you can get but more like a moment to get some important matters straight.

You can also read this special Gemini Daily Horoscope.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

There might be some changes at home that might come as a bit of a shock for you and although you are not extremely impacted by them you will probably feel as if your whole routine is destroyed.

The worst is that, this being a Sunday you will tend to overdramatize and might continue to behave like this and hold this petty grudge even during the beginning of the following week.

You can also read this special Cancer Daily Horoscope.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This Sunday might find you on the road, most likely for leisure so don’t worry if your significant other or someone from the family decides you should go some place and enjoy this day together.

It might change your views even if you are not very fond of that prospective place and who knows, you might actually end up enjoying yourself more than you thought.

You can also read this special Leo Daily Horoscope.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You dread taking any money out of your pockets this Sunday so basically your first reaction is to deny or avoid anything that involves even the slightest spending. This might put you in an awkward place with friends who don’t know you that well to realize what you are doing.

You need to balance this with other refusals from the past because you know what they say, the more you refuse, the less invitations you will receive.

You can also read this special Virgo Daily Horoscope.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Cultural and relaxation activities are going to be most favored this Sunday but this doesn’t necessarily mean that you can’t try your hand at certain sports hobbies or alike activities.

Everything that enriches you, that allows you to socialize and heightens your touch to your senses is welcomed, not to mention how beneficial it would be if this also involves spending time outdoors.

You can also read this special Libra Daily Horoscope.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

The current disposition will have you focus more on your professional life and how you can improve your abilities. And despite this being a Sunday, your mind won’t be thinking about relaxation in no way but more like finding ways to get to work faster.

Some of the younger natives are totally entitled to this eagerness but for the older ones, this might actually prove a virtue.

You can also read this special Scorpio Daily Horoscope.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You are decided to chance a few things around but maybe this day is not actually the best time to start on courageous endeavors. Well, you could think about your first step but don’t feel in any way pressured to take it today.

Other than that, you will see that even when thinking about what to do, once you feel the threat of some roadblocks you will feel like giving up.

You can also read this special Sagittarius Daily Horoscope.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You need to put the most accent on dialogue and on expressing your emotions this Sunday or else you will have some later explanation to do.

Try not to lie or to cover your actions because what would you rather? Appear like the sensible and yet prone to mistakes person you are or appear as a manipulative and cold person who doesn’t want to get close to anyone for real.

You can also read this special Capricorn Daily Horoscope.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

No matter what you will be saying today, even if you repeat something that someone else just said, if you say it, failure will continue.

You seem to be in an honest mood but maybe this is the last thing those around you actually want for you. At the same time, the firmer you are with your choices, the more misinterpreted you will be.

You can also read this special Aquarius Daily Horoscope.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You seem to be in some sort of stand by status and don’t really figure out why this is happening. Maybe it’s the stars or maybe it’s actually your reluctance to get out of your comfort zone.

On one hand you would like to do something exciting and to change your views but at the same time, you are governed by certain fears that don’t really let you react upon those impulses.

ELDER TREE

Source: LearnReligions.com

The winter solstice has passed, and the Elder moon is a time of endings. Although the Elder can be damaged easily, it recovers quickly and springs back to life, corresponding to the approaching New Year. Called Ruish by the Celts (pronounced roo-esh), the month of Elder is a good time for workings related to creativity and renewal. It is a time of beginnings and endings, births and deaths, and rejuvenation. Elder is also said to protect against demons and other negative entities. Use in magic connected to Faeries and other nature spirits.

ELDER TREE LEAVES

Elder (Ruis Ogham): Symbolizes healing, transformation, and wisdom. The Elder tree is associated with the passage of time and the cycles of life, offering guidance and the potential for spiritual growth.

ELDER TREE FLOWERS

Ogham Letter: Ruis (R)

Symbolic Meaning: Rebirth, regeneration, death, magic

Ruling Planet: Saturn

Ruling Element: Water

Season: Winter

Corresponding Star Sign: Sagittarius

The Elder Tree rules the thirteenth moon and makes up the final month in the Celtic tree calendar. It’s one of the most magical trees and is a symbol of both death, regeneration and magic.

It is thought to house the spirit of the Elder Mother who will both harm and protect those around her. Use the tree selfishly without permission and you will be greeted with bad omens. Plant a tree by your home or hang the branches by your door to grant good fortune and ward away evil spirits.

The deep link to regeneration comes from how broken branches can easily take root and regrow. The rebirth of a new tree. A symbol of the end that takes us back to the beginning in a cycle of life and death.

Many parts of the elder tree are prized for their medicinal properties and were used in herbal medicine to treat and cure many ailments. The high content of vitamin C in the berries for coughs and colds and the flowers used for skin cleansers and lotions.

The month of Elder is perfect for trying something new and challenging, something you may never have done before. It is the darkest time of the year but be ready for the new and be open to change that may come your way.

Elder Tree Zodiac

Those born under the elder tree are thoughtful and empathetic with a philosophical mind. They have a caring persona and are considerate of others but will be brutally honest if the situation calls for it. They have a wild and extroverted personality and tend to seek out thrills wherever they can, however, others sometimes view them as withdrawn and more of an outsider.

Elder signs are compatible with Alder and Holly signs.

The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waning Crescent phase. This phase is best viewed just before the sunrise in the western sky. In this phase the Moon’s illumination is growing smaller each day until the New Moon. During this part of the Moon cycle, the Moon is getting closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing the Earth with only a small edge of the Moon being illuminated. It can also be a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the edge where the illuminated portion meets the dark side, the craters and mountains cast long shadows making them easier to observe with a telescope or binoculars.

Runes

This page is the first part of a five-part article on the runes. The other four parts are:

Part II: The Origins of the Runes
Part III: Runic Philosophy and Magic
Part IV: The Meanings of the Runes
Part V: The 10 Best Books on the Runes

The first systems of writing developed and used by the Norse and other Germanic peoples were runic alphabets. The runes functioned as letters, but they were much more than just letters in the sense in which we today understand the term. Each rune was an ideographic or pictographic symbol of some cosmological principle or power, and to write a rune was to invoke and direct the force for which it stood. Indeed, in every Germanic language, the word “rune” (from Proto-Germanic *runo) means both “letter” and “secret” or “mystery,” and its original meaning, which likely predated the adoption of the runic alphabet, may have been simply “(hushed) message.”[1]

Each rune had a name that hinted at the philosophical and magical significance of its visual form and the sound for which it stands, which was almost always the first sound of the rune’s name. For example, the T-rune, called *Tiwaz in the Proto-Germanic language, is named after the god Tiwaz (known as Tyr in the Viking Age). Tiwaz was perceived to dwell within the daytime sky, and, accordingly, the visual form of the T-rune is an arrow pointed upward (which surely also hints at the god’s prominent role in war). The T-rune was often carved as a standalone ideograph, apart from the writing of any particular word, as part of spells cast to ensure victory in battle.[2][3] (See Part IV for more examples.)

If Your Birthday Is Today

TV personality Robin Roberts (1960) shares your birthday today. You are a truth seeker with humanitarian values. You have many interests that you pursue with passion. This is a year of service, especially to family. Therefore, take care of yourself so you can be a resource to others. Take time to rejuvenate yourself. Time for a makeover?

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You need to take advantage of all the help that is being offered to you, most likely without anything in specific or too serious being requested back.

This Saturday is here to teach you that there is no need to be arrogant and to prefer to do it all by yourself because in certain situations, there isn’t really anything that you need to prove.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Money is going to be a heated topic this Saturday, either that you are feeling pressured in some way or that there might be certain last minute expenses that you need to tend to.

The more you give out, the more stressed you will become and no matter how many savings you might have amassed, you will still feel a bit uncovered and this will bring some frustration clouds over your day.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Optimistic perspectives for all those who’ve had some issues at home as it seems that most discussions have been cleared off or at least are somewhat buried for now.

You might feel a lot of relief about getting those things out of the way and this might prompt you into solving some activities you would otherwise dread, like those having to do with your finances.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

A more refrained day in which you seem to put a higher price on perceived intimacy and on trying to get into a connection with the person dear to you. While all this should be designed to put you in a sensible and romantic spot, with you things can go either way.

The other way being you letting yourself led by all the expectations you might have in regards to how your partner should respond to you.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is not a bad day for shopping, not necessarily groceries but neither a house. You know, those middle ground expenses that are not of capital consequences but are important enough to have you think about them for a while.

You need to have all your info ready at hand but at the same time be a little bold about these decisions as well.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You are putting yourself upside down for any endeavor that comes your way and since this is a Saturday, you will probably end up refusing some very entertaining opportunities.

You might be moody or maybe overly sensible when it comes to your family and you are craving a different kind of connection. This might have you be more open in all kinds of discussions with them.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Some sort of physical energy diminishing will be quickly observed this Saturday but you will probably be very stubborn about ignoring it and will try to continue with your busy day ahead.

But it’s not only physical tiredness that you need to be concerned of but more, it is also a matter of concentration so maybe you should be realistic about how many of those programmed tasks you will be able to accomplish.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You might want to avoid sweets and any other food excesses this Saturday and for some natives this might actually prove to be hard work as they might be tempted with delicious food cooked by someone else or they might be into a fancy restaurant meal later in the day.

In any way, your stomach seems to be on the most sensible areas of your body currently and you need to protect it.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This Saturday might put you face to face with some practical work around the house and depending on your place in the family, this might involve more or less time, more or less force and concentration.

What I would suggest is to hide your lack of interest at the beginning and to try and involve those around as much into the said activity. They might even postpone it just at the thought of them being involved as well.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

The current disposition is going to bring some heat in your love life and although it might not yet be time for a special ocasion you are ignoring that. You are bold and quick to demand what you want and you’ll even be surprised by the results.

However, it’s a shame this is just something momentary and that you will soon get back to your refrained self.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You need to be prepared even for the worst this Saturday as it seems that you will have to organize yourself in a different manner to accommodate some changes.

Although you might face them quite peacefully at the beginning, it won’t be long until you will be sick of so much adaptation and you will start being refractory to anything.

You can also read this special Aquarius Daily Horoscope.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

A day of profound thoughts for you and maybe even a bit of meditation if you keep your mind as clear and get to spend some time isolated from any distraction.

You tend to work around your spiritual side more and you tend to feel this kind of prompt that this is from where most of the peace might come if you pursue these activities more often.

Journey To Witchcraft c.2016

Author: The Wild Sorceress

Hello from an Australian Eclectic Witch. I have to admit, I’m a bit of a procrastinator. I’ve been thinking about writing an essay for some time but as all procrastinators will tell you, it’s always the thinking, never the doing.

I have always been interested in witchcraft. I think the awareness and the interest started when I was 13, (inspired from seeing The Craft. Yes, I know what you’re thinking and you’re probably right. But we all find our path in different ways).

I went to see the movie with three friends and at the end of the movie, like all teenage girls who are not considered ‘popular’ we thought “Wow this is for us”. Double, Double, Toil and Trouble the teenage way. And like all teenagers, my three friends lost interest fairly soon after.

The interest always stuck with me in various ways over the next few years but being in high school one has enough stress and doesn’t always find the time to delve into the spiritual.

So as the story goes, years later I was cleaning out my room and came across a book my parents had bought for me when I was 13 called The Nice Girl’s Book of Naughty Spells. (Yes you read correctly, my parents bought it for me).

I also came across articles I had ripped out of magazines and a booklet I had sent off for from the Church Of Wicca in Perth, WA. It grabbed me, and then it lost me. I began working and again, it took a back seat. I think at that stage in my life, it wasn’t time for me to walk the path. (Procrastination again).

I was about 22 when the interest became more of a spiritual need, a path I felt I needed to walk. I bought books to read. My first 2 were Witch A Personal Journey and A Magickal Year by Fiona Horne, followed soon by Book Of Shadows by Phyllis Currot and then finally Wicca by Scott Cunningham. It really hit me: this is what I wanted, and I felt it was right for me.

Luckily I didn’t have any religious conflicts. For all intents and purposes my mother was a single mother and she felt, not being religious herself, that she did not want to baptize her children (I have an older brother). She felt that we should feel free to pick our own path when we were old enough to understand what religion was. Suffice to say, Christianity was not for me.

I’ve always been an independent free thinker and the rules and rigmarole of organized religion was not for me.

The way I got here was interesting. As a general rule when I was younger, nature and its elements were actually very boring to me. I knew there were trees and flowers and things of that nature but it didn’t really impact me in any fashion. I used to hate helping my mother garden. Also, every time I tried to grow something it would die. The natural world, seemingly, was not my friend.

As I began to study witchcraft the natural held more interest and I felt better and more alive when I would go outside. We have this massive Oak tree in our yard and it is magnificent and really old. Now when I stand with it and look at it or touch the leaves, I feel an affinity I never thought I would. I feel a spiritual recognition, a connection with its beauty and its sense of history. I grow herbs under it and they flourish nourished by its shade. Being a fire sign, Oak is also one of my Celtic trees.

I feel my personal power growing. I have always had a strong sense of intuition and occasionally have psychic flashes that more often than not just leave me with a head spinning sense of déjà vu.

I am now able to grow herbs. I’m currently growing about 8 different kinds from seed and they are going really strong now. To me, this is a sign that the Goddess is helping me walk this path.

The one thing that originally boggled my mind was the amount of ‘things’ needed in witchcraft. There are athames and wands, chalices, censers, candles, herbs etc and I thought that my new path — although giving me great spiritual fulfillment — was going to drain my finances. But I have found that these items have come to me when I have needed them, not before. I think that instead of rushing out and buying everything all at once that if you wait, the Goddess will deliver. If not, I have 2 great recommendations for you.

EBay is a great place to get different ritual items. I got my first lot of herbs, most of my books, runes and two lovely wooden pentagram boxes from EBay.

Another is an Australian website called Uncle Festers. They have a club called the Cauldron Club and each month for 13 months they send you a package, slowly building up all your ritual supplies. Since being with them I haven’t really bought anything. I wait; it comes. I love it; it’s like my birthday every month.

My mother and stepfather have always been incredibly supportive of my choice (as has my brother and friends). I never had to worry about their disapproval. It breaks my heart when I read articles on here about new witches who fear rejection and anger from their parents if they share with them the news of walking the path of the Goddess. It’s sad that people are not flexible minded enough to realize that what may be good for them religion-wise is not always good for someone else.

My advice is to stay strong and be true to who you are because ultimately in this world, the only person who you have to please is yourself.

Wow, do I go on. So this is the story of a 24-year-old Eclectic Witch from Australia who wanted to write an article for Witchvox.

Blessed Be
