The Stars Rate Your Day

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

Aries (March 21-April 19)

** Today you’ll feel pulled between the demands of home and family versus the demands of your external world or career. With this Full Moon, you can’t ignore your public reputation. Nevertheless, you have a strong focus on home and family today. Tough call.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

*** Pay attention to everything you say and do because this is an accident-prone day for you. Obviously, an accident doesn’t have to happen but you could be distracted, irritated or emotionally upset because of the Full Moon energy. Relax.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

*** Financial issues might come to a head on this Full Moon day. You might encounter disputes about ownership. You will almost certainly have disputes about differing values, which are difficult to deal with because people identify with their values. You might have to agree to disagree.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

** Today the Full Moon is in your sign; and the Moon is your ruler. You will feel some emotional tension dealing with others, especially partners and close friends. Old angers and frustrations might be bubbling beneath the surface, which could make you quick to lash out. Don’t do it. Life is short – and fat.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

*** Today’s Full Moon might create stressful health issues for you. It will certainly promote conflicts or disagreements with work colleagues, including customers and clients. Because patience is the antidote to anger, you are best served by counting to three or taking a deep breath before you reply to anyone.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

*** Parents must be extra vigilant because today is an accident-prone day for your kids. Keep an eye on them. Meanwhile the energy of today’s Full Moon might create stress in romantic relationships. Even social situations might trigger short tempers. Avoid sports fights.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

** You are a people pleaser and you like to keep the peace. Today will be challenging because for starters, you are high viz. People notice you more than usual. Furthermore, conflict with bosses, parents and authority figures might arise because of today’s Full Moon energy.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

*** This is a mildly accident-prone day for you so be mindful and pay attention to whatever you say and do. Definitely, avoid controversy and arguments about politics, religion or race because these will quickly get out of hand. Actually, it’s a nice day to socialize! Enjoy the arts and playful times with kids.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

** This is a testy day for financial discussions because today’s Full Moon might put you at loggerheads with someone, especially about shared property, taxes and debt. Therefore, tread lightly. Instead, entertain or redecorate where you live. Postpone financial plans for a day or two.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

** Today the Full Moon is in your sign, which will create tension between you and partners and close friends. Be aware of this. However, you can handle this with grace because fair Venus is in your House of Communications sweetening your words.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

** Be careful. In many ways, you have been reassessing your job or issues related to your work and even your health. This is a touchy subject for you. That’s why today, when the Full Moon creates even further stress in these areas – you might be thin-skinned. Don’t overreact.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

*** Be vigilant today because this is an accident-prone day for your kids. Likewise, arguments or tension between romantic partners or casual friends might also occur. However, with fair Venus in your sign, you will be charming and diplomatic with everyone. (Saved!)

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Julia Louis Dreyfus (1961) shares your birthday today. You are focused, determined and keen to better yourself. You embrace humanitarian causes and social reform. Whatever you do, you give it your all. This is a year of exciting change and increased personal freedom. You might travel more to expand your horizons. You will meet new friends.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You will finally get at least half of solution for something that has been troubling you for a while. The interesting part comes in when the other half is nowhere to be found and you are not really in the best place to focus on your own.

You will find that the work day is quite free so you should try and meet up with people willing to help you.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You are playing Cupid this Monday and not really going to give up until you see your plan to completion. And the most complicated part is that you are doing this at work, with people you don’t really know that well.

But you are in for some fun and risk and no one can really stop you. If everything goes according to plan you will rejoice the whole week, this is how high the stakes are.

Check every day your Taurus Daily Horoscope.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You are trying to hide just as vulnerable you are in front of a particular person at work but the more you are trying, the weirder you appear in front of everyone.

So maybe just take another check at your own qualities and stop comparing yourself with this person and start behaving the way you do with everyone. Although it might seem complicated, with a bit of focus you’ll move past this.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Your interaction with small children is benefited today and you are also going towards a more spiritual side.

Therefore you will take everything with a lot of peace this Monday and not feel stressed by anything in particular. However, this will surely annoy your fast paced friends who you will hear from in quite an aggressive manner.

Check every day your Cancer Daily Horoscope.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Your mind is wondering and you surely would want to be on a beach somewhere instead of that square office.

But you know that most natives are stuck in the same situation as you and only some lucky few are enjoying themselves at the moment. This should give you a push towards coming back with your feet on the ground.

Check every day your Leo Daily Horoscope.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You are inclined to do whatever it takes to impress people you are entering in contact with today even though you might never see them.

This means you will behave like in slow motion today, choosing your steps carefully. But the downside of this, beside the obvious superficiality is that you will find this day unusually tiresome and like it never ends.

Check every day your Virgo Daily Horoscope.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

A new week, a different habit for you and this time you seem to focus your attention on attracting everyone’s looks.

Perhaps you will spend half of the day in the mirror just arranging that last detail or you are going to adopt some kind of controversial behavior just to ensure you have all eyes on you. And there isn’t a particular reason why you are doing this but I’d go with vanity.

Check every day your Libra Daily Horoscope.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This Monday is an excellent time to discover something you are very good at but always been reluctant or scared of doing.

It might be something that has to do with work, maybe taking just one extra responsibility or maybe doing something at home, coming out of a moment of selflessness and empathy with your partner.

Check every day your Scorpio Daily Horoscope.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

An important day for your career with the stars all rooting for you in this direction. So if you have any presentations going on, an important interview or similar activities where you need to be top notch, than be sure that you have a grain of luck with you.

However, the rest still has to come from you so don’t take it for granted.

Check every day your Sagittarius Daily Horoscope.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Money is the most important thing for you today and you might find yourself pursuing them in an aggressive manner.

Maybe taking more shifts at work or planning on getting an extra job or doing something freelance. While you are highly motivated now, you might want to think about how you are going to feel about all this work later on and if it’s not too much.

Check every day your Capricorn Daily Horoscope.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You are going to tolerate some practices and gestures, some you wouldn’t otherwise, just because they are coming from a particular person and in case you are too obvious with this, you will raise some eyebrows.

If this impartiality of yours happens at work then you are in for extra trouble. You should try and separate emotions from work decisions.

Check every day your Aquarius Daily Horoscope.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

An extra push will do you just perfect this beginning of the week even though the push might come with some strings attached and might stress you out entirely.

But if you don’t get through this storm you will take things a lot easier than you should and will not have learned anything. So do embrace what’s coming and just hope for the best.

Spell for Tuesday – Powerful Egg Shell Protection

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY)

Powerful Egg Shell Protection Spell

(SIDE NOTE from Lady Carla Beltane: To clean eggshells of that film that stays after you use the egg for whatever run the eggshell under as hot of water that is comfortable for you while gently moving a finger around the inside the shell. Then place the eggshells open side up into an empty egg carton to dry thoroughly. After they are thoroughly dry, I place them on my pastry sheet and use a rolling pin to crush them.)

Waste not want not applies to more than just meals! We believe that all ingredients and, what some would call trash, contain powerful symbolic magic.

And today, we’re going to harness the symbolism of the strong, powerful egg shell in our newest protection spell.

This spell leverages the potent symbolism of the egg, representing life, potential, and protection. As always, while spell ingredients provide energy to propel our manifestation, the power lies within your intention, the faith you have in the process, and the energy you infuse into it.

As you cast this spell, focus on the symbolism of the egg as a container of life and potential, as well as its shell as a protective barrier.

Egg Shell Protection Spell

Prep Time1minute 
Spell Time10minutes 
Total Time11minutes 

Materials

White Candles

Bowl

Salt

Permanent Marker optional

Whole Pasteurized Egg Shell

Instructions

Cleanse: Begin by creating a safe and sacred space. If desired, cleanse the space with smoke from sage or your favorite cleansing herbs. Light the white candles and place them on your altar or sacred space.
Consecrate: If you wish, you can use the marker to draw symbols on the egg that are meaningful to you and represent protection. These could be runes, sigils, or other symbols associated with protection in your personal practice.
Visualize: Hold the egg in your hands. Close your eyes and visualize yourself or what you want to be protected is living inside of the eggshell. Imagine that the eggshell is keeping you safe from negative energies or influences that may be affecting you.

Protect: Pour salt into the bowl, and place the egg int the center. As you do this, recite the following incantation (or one of your own creation):

“Shell of life, pure and round, Ward off harm, guard my ground. By the power of earth and sea, As I will it, so mote it be.”

Manifest: Leave the egg within the salt circle on your altar or sacred space for as long as you feel is necessary. Some people might choose to leave it overnight, while others might choose to leave it for several days.
Close: End the ritual by closing your sacred space in your chosen manner. You might choose to do this by extinguishing your candles, thanking any spirits or deities you invoked, or simply stating your intention to close the space.
Clean Up: Once you feel the spell is complete, take the egg outside and return it to the earth. You can do this by burying it in the ground or breaking it and scattering it in a garden or forest. As you do so, thank the egg and release any negative energies it has absorbed.

Moon Phase

The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Full Moon phase. The Moon will be visible throughout the night sky rising at sunset in the east and setting with the sunrise the next morning in the west. During a Full Moon the moon is 100% illuminated as seen from Earth and is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun. The point at which a Full Moon occurs can be measured down to a fraction of a second. The time it takes between full moons is known as a Synodic month and is 29.530587981 days long. Keep track of all the Full Moons throughout the year on the Full Moon Calendar >

Visit the January 2025 Moon Phases Calendar to see all the daily moon phase for this month.

Today’s Full Moon Phase

The Full Moon on January 13 has an illumination of 100%. This is the percentage of the Moon illuminated by the Sun. The illumination is constantly changing and can vary up to 10% a day. On January 13 the Moon is 14.53 days old. This refers to how many days it has been since the last New Moon. It takes 29.53 days for the Moon to orbit the Earth and go through the lunar cycle of all 8 Moon phases.

Today’s Moon Sign: ♋ Cancer

The current zodiac moon sign is Cancer, positioned at 20.66° within the sign. The Moon entered Cancer on Jan 11, 11:00 PM and will shift into Leo on Jan 13, 10:26 PM. The zodiac moon sign represents the position of the Moon as it moves through the twelve signs of the zodiac. Each zodiac moon sign lasts about 2 to 2.5 days as the Moon travels through that part of the sky.

14 January 2025 Current Moon Phase for the Southern Hemisphere

Source: nineplanets.org

The current moon phase for January 14th, 2025 is the Waxing Gibbous phase.

On this day, the moon is 13.76 days old and 99.94% illuminated with a tilt of 201.783°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 380,729.27 km and the moon sign is Cancer.

The Moon phase for January 14th, 2025 is a Waxing Gibbous phase. This is the phase where the moon is more than 50% illuminated but has not yet reached 100% illumination (which would be a Full Moon).

In the Northern Hemisphere, the right side will be illuminated, and in the Southern hemisphere it’ll be the left side that is illuminated.

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 word Gibbous was first used in the 14th century and comes from the latin word gibbosus which means humpbacked.
