Your Ogham Reading for Tuesday, January 15 for Saille-Willow

Your Ogham Reading for Tuesday, January 15

Saille-Willow

The willow tree is often found growing along rivers and in areas of high water concentration. In nature it can protect riverbanks, but in human populated areas it can be a destructive force to drainage systems and walkways. This is why the letter Saille, the willow, is often associated with emotions, dreams, and the subconscious. It is a tree that longs to break up our outer protective world to get into the deep recesses to find more water and nourishment. Drawing this letter is a cause for serious soul searching.

Fortune – When you see this Ogham it is time to take a long look into your subconscious and innermost thoughts! Your soul knows the answer you seek!

The Judgment

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Judgment card indicates that you’ve had some sexual hang-ups in the past, but you’re working toward getting over them. This is a period of transition, and although you’re doing the work, you may not be getting the exact results you desire. Forgive yourself for past missteps in order to take a sexual step forward today. Being afraid to express your true erotic self can even effect other areas of your life, so getting beyond your sexual inhibitions translates into a happier overall existence.

Daily Tarot Card for the Day

The Lovers

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Keywords: choice, decision, love, communication, inspiration (ideas from above)!

Astrological Correspondence: Gemini

The Lovers card is representative not only of crucial life choices, but also of lovers, couples, and other partnerships, like business partners, siblings, and friends. The angel between a woman and a man, depicted on this card, symbolizes the struggle of deciding to follow one’s heart versus one’s temptation or obligation. The Lovers card symbolizes the choices that must be made to progress toward higher self-awareness; choices also reflect emotional values, indecisiveness, hesitation, and our fears about making wrong choices. This applies not only to love relationships – it is applicable to any relationship in which people are drawn together, even a casual one. It’s the card of uncertainty!

Aries (March 21-April 19)

For most of this day, the Moon is in one of your Money Houses; meanwhile, due to the Moon Alert, it’s a poor day for financial decisions or shopping! In fact, restrict your spending to food, gas and entertainment during this window of time.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

For most of today, things are vague and iffy. Expect minor errors and shortages. You might feel like you’re not on the same page as everyone else. Or maybe they’re not on the same page as you? Everything is relative. Just cope as best you can. (Just today.)

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Today the Moon is in one of your Money Houses; however, it’s a Moon Alert. Do not be tempted to make a decision about shared property, inheritances or insurance disputes. Get your info, but wait until the Moon Alert is over before you act. Capisce?

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is a wonderful, creative, playful day! Go with the flow! You’ll find it easy to think outside of the box, which is why you will be full of imaginative, original ideas. Write them down. They might apply to sports, the arts, future vacations or your relations with kids.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You will enjoy cocooning at home today. You might have a heart-to-heart talk with a female family member. Nevertheless, whatever happens, during the time of the Moon Alert, do not shop for anything for home other than food and do not agree to anything important.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is the vague, loosey-goosey day because of the Moon Alert. However, your imagination is in overdrive. If you have some original, far-out ideas – write them down! But make promises to no one. Restrict your spending to food, gas and entertainment.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Composer, playwright, singer, lyricist, actor Lin-Manuel Miranda (1980) shares your birthday today. You have a curious mind and are interested in others. You listen.

Look for ways to practice kindness and be helpful to others. Be relaxed and easy going. Business and personal relationships will be helpful.

Your Daily Cosmic Calendar for Tuesday, January 15

COSMIC CALENDAR

  • JANUARY 15, 2019

As the moon continues its monthly transit through physically determined Taurus, the universe reminds you to tune into conservative, sensible attitudes that can lead you to business or career success. This is emphasized as the lunar orb trines Saturn and Mercury in Capricorn (10:51 a.m. and 5:31 p.m., respectively). Tweak a square aspect between the sun in Capricorn and Pallas in Libra (12:15 p.m.) away from mental fatigue and in the direction of being a superb problem-solver and strategist. Building rainbow bridges between personality and soul realms of consciousness is the message emanating from an inspirational, 72-degree link between Mercury and Chiron (1:45 p.m.).

[Note to readers: All times are calculated as Pacific Standard Time. Be sure to adjust all times according to your own local time so the alignments noted above will be exact for your location.]

About the Goddess of the Month – Freya

Freya

The Goddess of Love

Freya is the Goddess of love in Norse mythology, but she is also associated with sex, lust, beauty, sorcery, fertility, gold, war and death. The name Freya (in Old Norse “Freyja)” means “lady”, and can also be spelled (Freya, Freija, Frejya, Freyia, Fröja, Frøya, Frøjya, Freia, Freja, Frua, and Freiya). She does not originate from the Aesir but she is from the Vanir, she and two other Gods were sent to the Aesir by the Vanir as a token of truce, in return, the Aesir also sent two Gods to the Vanir. Freya became an honorable member of the Aesir after the war between the Aesir and Vanir ended.

Freya’s Family

Freya is the daughter of Njord and his sister Nerthus, and she has a twin brother named Freyr. Freya is married to the God Odr, but he somehow disappeared but it might be Odin, she has two children with Odr, their names are Hnoss and Gersimi. Some of the weekdays in Norse mythology originate from some of the Gods and Goddesses, and Freya might be associated with the day Friday, but there are conflicting sources so it could also be the Goddess Frigg.

Freya the beautiful

Freya is incredibly beautiful and she has many admirers, not just among the Gods and Goddesses but also among the dwarves and giants. She loves jewelry and other fine materials and she has quite often used her beauty to get the jewelry she desires. a big passion for poems and loves to sit and listen to songs for many hours. Freya has an unusual gift when she cries her tears turns into amber or gold.

Freya’s house

Freya is living in Asgard (the home of the Gods), the name of her house is Sessrumnir and it is located by the field Fólkvangr which means “field of the host”, “people field” or “army field” It is a place where half of the people who die in a battle go for the afterlife, while Odin will receive the other half. Freya is always given the first choice among the brave warriors after she had picked the ones she wanted, the rest were sent to Odin.

Three animals and some feathers

Freya loves to travel and she would sometimes take a ride in her chariot pulled by two black or gray cats. But she was also able to fly, by using her cloak of falcon feathers, which she willingly loaned out to the other Gods and Goddesses in Asgard, when they needed to fly to one of the worlds in a hurry. Freya also has a boar named Hildisvini “battle swine” which she rides when she is not using her cat-drawn chariot. It is also said to be Freya’s human lover, Ottar in disguise, and that is the reason why Loki consistently accuses her of being immoral by riding her lover in public.

Amazing Grace

Amazing grace, how sweet the Earth
that bore a witch like me!
I once was burned, now I survive,
was hung and now I sing.

T’was grace that drew down the moon
and grace that raised the seas.
The magic in the people’s will
will set our Mother free.

We face the East and breathe the winds
that move across this earth.
From gentle breeze to hurricane
our breath will bring forth the change.

Turn towards the South and feel the fire
that burns in you and me.
The spirit’s flame will rise again
and burn eternally.

We greet the West, our souls awash
in tides of primal birth.
Our tears and blood, our pain and love
will cleanse and heal the earth.

Reach into the North and know your roots
down deep ancestral caves.
We find the wisdom of the Crone,
Of circles we are made.

Amazing earth, enduring life,
from death into rebirth.
T’is earth I am and earth I love
and earth I’ll always be.

Amazing grace, how sweet the Earth
that bore witches like we.
We once were burned, now we survive,
were hung and now we sing.

Goddess bless, so mote it be,
Our magic spirals on.
Merry meet and merry part
and merry meet again.
