Information About the Moon and the Sun In Magickal Practice
Something to me that gets over looked often is the place the Sun has in pagan/witchcraft traditions. There are many spells better done during the day rather than at night. I personally always do protection spells during the day as negative entities are weaker than and the Sun can and does help make this type of spell stronger in my experience.
The Sun has phases just as the Moon does. Where the Moon phases go on a monthly basis the Sun’s phases are daily. So I decided the topic of informationally posts this week will be about the Moon or Sun in witchcraft. I find the differences in working spells and/or rituals during the day rather than at night can make a spell and/or ritual either stronger or weaker.
If there is a specific Sun and/or Moon Goddesses and/or Gods you would like me to post more information about please leave the deities name or names in a comment on this post.
(One Person’s View Point) The Sun in Pagan Traditions

During the Summer Solstice, or “Midsummer”, Pagans celebrate the peak of the sun’s power and its vital role in the cycle of life.

The Moon phase for March 9th, 2026 is a Waning Gibbous phase. This is the first phase after the Full Moon where the illumination of the moon decreases each day until it reaches 50% (the Last Quarter phase).
The waning (shrinking) gibbous Moon will rise after sunset in the east, transit the meridian after midnight, before setting after sunrise in the west.
During this phase, the illumination of the moon will go down from 99.% to 50.1%. Technically, the phase starts as soon as the Full Moon has passed, but it can be difficult to calculate and differentiate the first stage of a Waning Gibbous Moon from a Full Moon when 98-99% of the Moon’s surface is illuminated.
Fun fact:
Phase Details:
Moon age: 19.48 days
Moon illumination: 72.26%
Moon tilt: -36.139°
Moon angle: 0.49
Moon distance: 402,835.35 km

The Self
Remain modest – that is the right of the oracle. Be in the world, but not from the world. Stay receptive to impulses, that come out of the divine in the inner and outer sphere. Seek to live the usual life in an unusual manner.
If you take the ‘itself’ rune and cut through it in the middle, you are going to receive the rune of joy and its reflection. So there is a fine warning not to be careless. The acrobatically dancing energy of the balance is asked here to bring its higher itself. Nothing in the excess – that was the second request that was to be read at the entrance to the delphish temple. The first advice read: Recognize you yourself!

Beith/Beth
Beith, or Beth, corresponds to the letter B in the alphabet, and is associated with the Birch tree. When this symbol is used, it is representative of new beginnings, change, release, and rebirth. In some traditions, it also has connections with purification.
Birch trees are hardy. They’ll grow just about anywhere, including on bare soil. Because they tend to grow in clusters, what may be just one or two seedlings now can be practically an entire forest in a few decades. In addition to being a sturdy sort of tree, the Birch is useful. In days gone by, it was used for infants’ cradles, and is still harvested today to make cabinets and furniture.
From a magical perspective, there are a number of uses for Birch. The branches are traditionally incorporated into the construction of a besom, and are used for the bristles. Use the white outer bark in ritual in place of paper or parchment–just be sure you only harvest the bark from a fallen Birch tree, not a living one. Ancient herbalists discovered that various parts of this tree can be used for medicinal purposes. Bark was once brewed into a tea to fight fevers, and the leaves were used alternately as a laxative and a diuretic, depending on how they were prepared.
Beith Correspondences
Mundane Aspects: When this symbol appears, it means it’s time to get rid of all those negative influences you’ve been carrying around with you. Figure out what things are bad in your life, which relationships are toxic, and find a way to leave them behind. Instead of being dragged down by the negative, focus on the positive things you have in your life, the blessings and abundance. Use these things as a focus, rather than the harmful or damaging ones.
Magical Aspects: Consider the property of renewal and rebirth, as demonstrated by the Birch. Use this as a tool for spiritual and emotional regrowth, and developing your own ability to regenerate where there has been emptiness or devastation.

Hexagram Sixty – Two/62
Hsiao Kuo / Lying Low
Thunder high on the Mountain, active passivity:
The Superior Person is unsurpassed in his ability to remain small.
In a time for humility, he is supremely modest.
In a time of mourning, he uplifts with somber reverence.
In a time of want, he is resourcefully frugal.
When a bird flies too high, its song is lost.
Rather than push upward now, it is best to remain below.
This will bring surprising good fortune, if you keep to your course.
SITUATION ANALYSIS:
There is no profit to striving here.
To be content with oneself is the greatest success imaginable.
The enlightened person has nothing to prove to himself or others, and thus may always operate from a position of sincerity, with no pretense or posturing.
His humility is guileless simplicity.
His mourning is selfless compassion.
His frugality is an unshakeable faith that he is but a conduit, letting what is needed flow through him to others, with no loss to himself.

Being a Pisces born on March 8th…
Astrological symbol: Fishes. This symbolizes versatility, empathy, confidence and kindness. It influences people born between February 19 and March 20 when the Sun is in Pisces, the twelfth zodiac sign.
The Pisces Constellation is one of the twelve constellations of the zodiac and lies between Aquarius to the West and Aries to the East. The brightest star is called Van Maanen’s. This constellation is spread on an area of 889 square degrees and covering visible latitudes between +90° and -65°.
The French name it Poissons while the Greeks prefer their own Ihthis, however the origin of the March 8 zodiac sign, the Fish, is the Latin Pisces.
Opposite sign: Virgo. This is relevant in astrology because it shows that partnerships between the Pisces and Virgo sun signs are beneficial and highlight brightness and wander.
Modality: Mobile. This means how much resourcefulness and simplicity exists in the lives of those born on March 8 and how youthful they are in general.
Ruling house: The twelfth house. This is a space suggesting a turning point of analysis and change of route and starting over after success or pitfall rising each and every time just like the Phoenix bird. It is the completion and renewal of all life cycles.
Ruling body: Neptune. This connection suggests perceptivity and pleasure. It also reflects on the intuition in the lives of these natives. The glyph of Neptune combines a cross with three crescents going up and above.
Element: Water. This is the element of emotions and transformation and rules over people born under the March 8 zodiac. Water as element combines with the other three to make things boil with fire, vaporize in the presence of air and shape earth.
Lucky day: Thursday. This day is representative for the compassionate nature of Pisces, is ruled by Jupiter and suggests conservation and consideration.
Lucky numbers: 2, 4, 10, 17, 25.
Motto: “I believe!”
People born on March 8 are original and accepting and enjoy spending time surrounded by people who are as talented as themselves. They also take time aside to observe what is going on around them, be it human personality or just nature in activity. They cannot be more annoyed than by avarice and little minded people. They enjoy artsy enterprises that show their potential but they can be quite charitable as well.
Positive Traits: These natives are optimistic, accepting and generous people who are set to change the world and although when young they might seem adventurous and quickly distracted, they eventually gain more insight and put their mark on the world, at least in the lives of those close to them. They also have a philanthropic nature and this only helps them strengthen their position in the society.
Negative Traits: One of the things Pisces needs to learn is to not over rely on instinct and to consider every relevant decision they have to make in life with a clear mind. Those born on this day are hyperconscious and sometimes prone to confusion as they don’t seem to take enough time to actually be all ears to what others around them have to say. They have capricious temperaments and are prone to exaggerate many of the things that happen to them in order to get scrutiny. They can become victims of their own ideals if they don’t temper their sometimes irrational eagerness.
Love and Compatibility: Lovers born on March 8 are creative and adventurous. They love dating and meeting new and exciting persons but when it comes to commitment they avoid any kind of attachment. However, if they ever get struck by love they start acting like fools and their whole world starts revolving around the object of their affection. They are attracted to energetic and fun persons who can keep up with their active and unpredictable lifestyle.
Lucky Color: Turquoise is the color for Pisces zodiac.
The visionary and original Pisces is really stimulated by this watery and non conventional mix of hues. This watery color brings this native a great flow of energy and innovation.

Characteristic Flower: Water Lily is the representative flower for Pisces zodiac.

Other flowers suggestive for Pisces are Violet and Jonquil.
Symbolic Metal: Aluminum is the representative metal for Pisces zodiac.
Aluminum reveals innovation and originality. It also relates to travel, due to its lightness in weight. Although it is soft and lacks strength its malleability is its principal and most used feature.
Another metal considered lucky for Pisces is Zinc.
Characteristics: March 8 Zodiac belongs to the second decan of PISCES (March 1-March 10). This decan is under the supervision of the Moon. Those born in this period are creative and enthusiastic just like a true Pisces and extremely emotional just as the Moon makes them be. This period tempers the positive and negative characteristics of the Pisces zodiac sign with a great accent on the positive ones.
Statistics Say: In a year in the Gregorian Calendar, March 8 is the 67th day or the 68th day in case of leap years and until the end of the year there are left 298 days. The eighth day of spring, this is also the International Women’s Day, recognized by the UN.
