Daily Incantations & Enchantments for Sunday, February 10

This is an enchantment that can be used on jewelry, watches, anything that you will wear throughout the day that you can touch often, whenever you need a burst of positive energy.  Hold the item in your left hand and chant over it:

Wearing you all the while,
Every time I touch you I smile.
You are good luck to me,

Spirit Message of the Day – Be Grace-full

BEING GRACIOUS
“Being ungrateful is one of the greatest acts of self-centeredness. It’s important for one to recognize that it’s a behavior to be avoided at all costs. Being grateful for everything you have makes you a better person, and it makes others happy to be around you.” Acknowledge what you feel grateful for silently and out loud to your friends and loved ones. Appreciate the gifts people give you each and every day whether tangible or not. Realize the power of grace. Allow your life, your thoughts, your words, and your deeds to be full of grace.

Instructions

Step 1
Make gratitude part of your daily life. Recognizing others for what they have done for you, even the small acts of kindness, is necessary even when the person is family or a close friend.
Step 2
Say “Thank You” for every act of kindness received. It’s so simple to say and yet so often taken for granted. It’s especially true when it comes to your own family members.
Step 3
Express your gratitude and appreciation often. Take the time to write a note or send an email even if you already said thank you. Send a gift to show your appreciation for someone’s help.
Step 4
Look for opportunities to reciprocate favors as soon as possible.Be observant and give service instead of asking if help is needed.
Step 5
Count your blessings instead of wishing for more and moping about what you don’t have. Write down a list of things you are grateful for and you will be amazed at what you have to be grateful for. Experiencing gratitude is closely tied to being happy.
Step 6
Provide ways to support others who are less fortunate. You never know when the tables might be turned one day.
Becoming the type of person that is grateful for life is essential to a fulfilled and happy life. Things you’ll need: An open attitude and realization of the goodness of life.

Instructions

Step 1
Notice the small things. There are small things about life that you can be grateful for at this moment. The air you are breathing, this is a major one. Breathe in the air and realize being allowed to have air is an amazing feeling. Don’t take this for granted. Also the water you consume be grateful for this as well. This is essential to life.
Step 2
Form a list everyday. Make a list of the things in nature that you are grateful for and gradually provide reasons and feeling why you are grateful for them. As you build this list you will feel very empowered. This gratitude list will help you on you life journey. Remember to put things here you feel grateful for.
Step 3
Be grateful for life. There are many things to be grateful for on the material level. A roof over your head, your car, your clothes etc. But what I want to point out here is there is a second level of gratitude that is more powerful than the material. This second level is being grateful for life. This is being grateful for life experiences, trees, air, friendships, close relationships. These are more powerful because they have a feeling attached to them. This makes it more real and authentic to you and the universe.

The Energy of the Sun

The planetary energy of the Sun is stimulating and warm. It encourages growth and expansion as well as general good feelings all around. It may be used for magick related to the growth of anything; career, family, public influence, wealth, the garden, friendships, love, general abundance, employment opportunities, business. Because the Sun shines down on the whole world, and thus sees everything that happens, the Sun’s planetary energy is occasionally used to find objects as well as protecting us from deception or being “kept in the dark”. Looking at the Sun’s universality in a different way, this energy can be used to find a common thread (we’re all warmed by the same Sun) to encourage new friendships and partnerships and reconciliation where existing ones are threatened.

Many things that correspond to the planetary energy of the Sun also correspond to the elemental energy of Fire.

Healing

The sun is associated with the heart, circulatory system, the spinal cord and the thymus gland.

Solar Minerals

Metal Gold

Crystals/Stones

Yellow, red and particularly bright, shiny crystals and stones tend to correspond to the energy of the Sun. diamond, ruby, chrysolite, yellow topaz, citrine, red garnet, chrysoprase and amber- fossilized tree sap said to contain the energy of the Sun as metabolized by the tree. Corundum and yellow Tiger’s Eye show sparkling designs that remind one of the sun and of course, there is sunstone.

Crystals and metals that correspond to the planetary energy of the Sun can be worn, carried or placed on the body to encourage healing or to draw planetary energies ruled by the sun, such as abundance to the individual. They may also be used to create a gem elixir and ingested, assuming they do not contain toxic materials. Crystals can be placed in a location to draw the desired energies to your home, place of business or vehicle as desired, placed on the altar, held, or gazed upon to enhance energies being raised during spellwork or other focusing and manifesting exercises.

Solar Plants and herbs

Plants that resemble the sun in shape or color, that open during the day and close at night, that follow the sun’s movements during the day, and those plants that are traditionally associated with the winter solstice as well as those that provide winter nourishment when fresh plants are unavailable, such as grains and nuts. Physically, edible Sun plants tend to encourage a feeling of warm satisfaction and medicinal plants affect the heart. sunflower, calendula, marigold, daylily, orange, citron, saffron, pine, mistletoe, rosemary, buttercup, heliotrope, bay laurel, daisy, walnut, acorn, maize, wheat, hops, cloves, cinnamon

Herbs can be incorporated into magick by placing them on the altar in the form of fresh flowers or dried potpourri or incorporated into incense to enhance energies raised during spellwork and ritual of a solar nature. They can also be carried or worn in a pouch or placed in an area to attract these energies. An herbal floor wash will infuse an area with the desired energies, or this may be accomplished via fumigation. Edible plants can be consumed as part of a meal or as part of an elixir or other herbal preparation. Those herbs that are skin-safe can be added to massage oils or fragrance sprays and ritual baths. Whole herbs or essential oils may be used.

*Incense* cinnamon, clove, pine, citrus, Benzoin, Pine, Frankincense, Labdanum, Olibanum

Sun fragrances are generous and, to me, home sweet home types of smells, with the exception of a few, which have “special occasion” feels to me. The sorts of smells that fill a temple, or the house on a day when lots of company is coming.

Days and Holidays

The Winter Solstice is the day most strongly associated with Solar Energy, though it peaks at the Summer Solstice, it declines thereafter.

Sunday is the Sun’s day.

Zodiac Leo is ruled by the sun.

Other Solar Correspondences

Animals Lion, Sparrowhawk, Griffin, hawk

While animal parts are used for magick in many traditions, they can be difficult or impossible to obtain and some animals are endangered, though you may find using feathers and fur of local animals to be feasible, using important bits of animals that aren’t already raised and slaughtered for food isn’t within the reach or moral compass of most modern witches. Using live animals subjects animals to discomfort and fear and is also not recommended. However, images of animals have a long history of use in magic and images of animals are quite easy to obtain as 2D pictures and 3D sculptures. If you are artistic, the very act of creating these images can help you more closely attune to their energy.

Colors

Orange, amber, gold, yellow, red

Many magic-users bring color into their working through their choice of colored candles, altar cloth and other items placed on the altar. If you wish to bring solar energy into your daily life, you may choose corresponding colors for your clothing or even chose paint, curtains and carpet colors to draw solar energy into your space.

Magick Prosperity, wealth, wealth, growth, confidence, clarity, commonality, abundance, truth, harmony, partnerships.

Sunday is Ruled by the Sun

Sunday corresponds to the sun, our closest star. This day is full of wonder and all sorts of magical potential for success, wealth, and fame. Sundays are for personal achievements of any kind such as working towards a promotion at your job, seeking fame and wealth, or being acknowledged for a job well done. All of these goals fall under the golden influence of the sun. Some suggestions for Sunday enchantments would include:

Sitting outside at sunrise and calling on the goddess Brigid for illumination and inspiration

Wearing gold jewelry or clothing that is gold or sunshine yellow to pull some color magic into your life

Arranging a few sunflowers in a vase and empowering these “flowers of the sun” for fame and ambition

Gathering up the common marigold flower and scattering it’s petals about to encourage prosperity

Baking up a batch of cinnamon rolls for the family and enchanting them for health and success

Snacking on a solar fruit, the orange, and enjoying the magical boost it brings to your life

On Sunday, February 10, We Celebrate….

Argungu (Nigeria)

YEMAJA

Themes: Providence; Blessing; Luck; Fertility

Symbols: Fish; the Color Blue; the Crescent Moon

About Yemaja: Yemaja, the Nigerian goddess of flowing water, bears a name that literally means “fish mother”! As such, Yemaja generates providence and fertility, especially on the physical plane. In legends she gave birth to eleven deities, the sun, the moon, and two streams of water that formed a lake. In art she’s often shown as a mermaid or a crescent moon, and her favorite color is blue.

To Do Today: The theme for the day is definitely fishy. Not surprisingly, new year festivities in Nigeria mark the beginning of the fishing season. Having a teeming net today portends prosperity for the rest of the season. So, what is it that you hope to catch today? Cast out your spiritual line to Yemaja for help in meeting or exceeding any goal.

To bite into a little luck, follow the example of Nigerian children. They make candies in fish shapes before this event, then dunk for them. The one to retrieve the most gets the most good fortune. Check out your local supermarket’s bulk candy section. Ours carries gummy fish that work very well for this activity. Consider including some type of fish in your menu today (even canned tuna will do the trick). Eat it to internalize good luck and a little of Yemaja’s blessings.

An ancient African festival marking the beginning of the fishing season and the New Year is celebrated annually on this day by members of the Kebbawa tribe of Nigeria. The ancient gods of their religion are honored and invoked, and traditional fish divinations are performed.

In pre-Christian times, the goddess Anaitis was honored on this day in the country of Persia (now Iran). She was a deity who was said to have possessed great powers over the Moon and the seas.

Today is Sunday, February 10

Traditionally, Sunday is the first day of the week. It is also known as the Lord’s Day from it original association with the Lord, that is, the Sun God, personified as Helios, Apollo, Ogmios, Mithras, and St. Elia. But in the Northern Tradition, the sun is seen as feminine, personified as the goddess known as Phoebe in East Anglia and Saule in eastern Europe. The sun rules the conscious element of the human being, the ego, the real self, and Sunday is the day on which this conscious power is at its most effective.

The Sky This Week from February 10 to 17

Two nice planetary conjunctions take place this week, one in the evening sky and the other before dawn, while the Moon remains a star attraction all week.

By Richard Talcott

Sunday, February 10
Mars continues to shine brightly on February evenings. Look for the Red Planet halfway to the zenith in the southwestern sky as darkness falls. The world glows at magnitude 1.0 against the much dimmer stars of Pisces the Fish. Tonight, Mars sits 6° to the right of the waxing crescent Moon. A telescope reveals the planet’s 6″-diameter disk, but you likely won’t see any surface details.

Venus appears brilliant in the southeast before dawn. It reached greatest western elongation in early January and continues to dominate the predawn sky. The inner world shines at magnitude –4.2, nearly 10 times brighter than the second-brightest planet, Jupiter. Venus rises by 4:30 a.m. local time and stands 15° high an hour before the Sun comes up. The planet lies among the background stars of Sagittarius, close to two of the Archer’s finest deep-sky objects. Both this morning and tomorrow morning, open star cluster M25 lies 2° north of Venus and globular cluster M22 resides 3° south of the planet. All three objects fit nicely in the field of 7×50 binoculars. Through a telescope, Venus shows a disk that spans 18″ and appears two-thirds lit.

Monday, February 11
If you grab a telescope and target the Moon this evening, you can watch a few points of light evolve into a prominent letter X. Focus on a spot along the terminator — the dividing line between lunar day and night — almost halfway from the equator to the south pole. Use the twin craters Aliacensis and Werner as guides to the Lunar X, which lies just to their northwest. In the image above, the X is just beginning to show. Although the X is just a chance alignment of light and shadow as the Sun rises over a group of crater walls, it’s fun to see because it triggers our brain’s pattern-recognition ability.

Tuesday, February 12
You can find the First Quarter Moon high in the south as darkness falls, then watch as it sinks toward the western horizon throughout the evening hours. Our satellite officially reaches First Quarter phase at 5:26 p.m. EST. The Moon lies in western Taurus, some 10° south of the Pleiades star cluster (M45).

You can use Mars as a guide to find Uranus through binoculars or a telescope tonight and tomorrow night. Both planets lie on the border between the constellations Pisces the Fish and Aries the Ram. This evening, Mars stands 1.0° north-northwest of its neighbor; tomorrow night, the Red Planet lies 1.1° due north of its neighbor. Both worlds show up nicely through binoculars or a telescope at low power, though only a scope reveals the planets’ disks. Mars measures 5.7″ across while Uranus, despite lying 12 times farther away, spans 3.5″. Neither object shows much, if any, detail, but the ruddy color of Mars contrasts nicely with the blue-green of Uranus.

Wednesday, February 13
The waxing gibbous Moon marches eastward relative to the background stars of Taurus this evening, passing through the conspicuous Hyades star cluster. Although everyone in North America will have wonderful views of our satellite’s journey, those farther east will see Luna centered in the V-shaped cluster shortly after darkness falls. Binoculars should provide the best views of this beautiful encounter.

Thursday, February 14
One of the sky’s most familiar constellations rules January’s sky from dusk until after midnight local time. Orion the Hunter appears conspicuous in the southeast as darkness falls and climbs highest in the south around 8 p.m. It then stands about halfway to the zenith from mid-northern latitudes. The waxing gibbous Moon stands above Orion this evening, while the night sky’s brightest star, Sirius, trails about an hour behind the Hunter.

Friday, February 15
Mercury returns to the evening sky in mid-February. This evening, it appears 5° high in the west-southwest 30 minutes after sunset. It shines at magnitude –1.1, bright enough to show up against the twilight glow. (If you don’t see Mercury right away, binoculars will bring it into view.) A telescope reveals the planet’s disk, which spans 5.6″ and appears nearly full. By the end of February, the innermost planet will be much easier to see as it climbs 11° above the western horizon a half-hour after the Sun goes down.

Saturday, February 16
Jupiter continues to grow more prominent in the southeastern sky before dawn. The giant planet rises around 3 a.m. local time and climbs 20° high by the first hint of twilight. Jupiter gleams at magnitude –2.0, though it still pales in comparison to Venus, which rises 100 minutes after the giant world. A telescope shows Jupiter’s 35″-diameter disk and at least two conspicuous cloud belts as well as the planet’s four bright Galilean satellites. In an unusual alignment, all four moons lie east of the gas giant this morning.

Sunday, February 17
If you thought the midweek conjunction of Mars and Uranus was special, wait until you see Venus and Saturn team up before dawn. The two bright planets lie 1.6° apart this morning and will approach within 1.1° of each other tomorrow. Venus shines at magnitude –4.2, some 80 times brighter than magnitude 0.6 Saturn. If you look carefully, you’ll also see the 3rd-magnitude star Pi (π) Sagittarii between the two. Use your naked eye or binoculars to view the stunning scene.

Solar Lore

In the beginning there was only darkness and people kept bumping into each other. Fox said that people on the other side of the world had plenty of light but were too greedy to share it. Possum went over there to steal a little piece of the light. He found the Sun hanging in a tree, lighting everything up. He took a tiny piece of the Sun and hid it in the fur of his tail. The heat burned the fur off his tail. That is why possums have bald tails. Buzzard tried next. He tried to hide a piece of Sun in the feathers of his head. That is why buzzards have bald heads. Grandmother Spider tried next. She made a clay bowl. Then she spun a web (Milky Way) across the sky reaching to the other side of the world. She snatched up the whole sun in the clay bowl and took it back home to our side of the world.

Preparing You for The Week Ahead: Mars Conjunct Uranus, February 13

Mars Conjunct Uranus 13 February 2019

Mars conjunct Uranus in the natal chart gives exceptional creative talents and a most interesting life. You have an engaging and sexually attractive energy which draws in all kinds of people and all kinds of attention.

Whether at work or play, your motivation, enthusiasm and electric energy can excite, inspire and entertain other people. You thrive on the adrenalin rush you get from pushing the limits. This strong desire for excitement makes you a thrill seeker and sometimes a rebel.

You love the attention you receive for you actions and works. You can actually feed of this recognition and appreciation. Your strong desire to act without restriction can make you a very independent person. A stable family life is possible so long as you can be your eccentric self.

You have strong desires for anything unusual. You may collect rare objects or have a passion for the occult. In following your passions you are not restricted by the rules of a particular culture or religion. You must satisfy your peculiar desires despite the criticism. If you do not use up your incredible stores of energy then unexpected things may happen to you.

Being a rebel and stirring up trouble comes naturally but you must channel this erratic and fiery energy into constructive activities. Use your creative genius to burn up this raw energy and make you feel satisfied.

You may have bursts of extremely potent energy like a volcanic explosion. It could be in a boxing match like Joe Frazier or a guitar solo like Jimmy Page. It can even be a witty and cutting political speech or a writing a poem. Afterwards you need rest to recover from your exhaustion.

Mars represents your goal directed energy. By focusing on your personal and professional goals you can avoid extra negative attention. You may gain popularity and will always create a stir by being so different. Expect to have some nasty critics at times because being controversial is just your style.

Mars Conjunct Uranus Transit
Transiting Mars conjunct Uranus gives a strong urge to break out of any limiting situations in your life. You need change and excitement to spice up your life. However, a tendency to act spontaneously or erratically can cause unwanted surprises that upset your life.

Risk taking is not the best option now, even though you will feel like it. You should still follow your passionate desires and instincts but with self-control and a particular goal in mind. Making and sticking to plans will not work, so there is a narrow path top tread between recklessness and missed opportunity.

The more of this erratic energy you use up on chasing your desires and goals the better. You want to find new and stimulating adventures, work and relationships. In this way, you reduce the risk of unexpected events happening to you.

You can fully express your kinky side now and have some fun with it. You may wear crazy clothes or try something different in the bedroom. Flashes of insight or experimentation could lead to amazing new opportunities in your life.
