How to Use Dragon’s Blood in Magic and Ritual from learnreligions.com

In many magical spell instructions, you’ll see a reference to an ingredient called Dragon’s Blood. Obviously, this is not the blood of real dragons… so what exactly is it, and how is it used?

What is Dragon’s Blood?

Dragon’s Blood is actually a resin, which is harvested from a variety of different plant species. The bright red pigment is what lends it the name Dragon’s Blood. The products which are currently marketed and sold to modern Pagans are not precisely the same as what ancient cultures referred to as Dragon’s Blood.

Maud Grieve’s Modern Herbal says,

“The berries are about the size of a cherry, and pointed. When ripe they are covered with a reddish, resinous substance which is separated in several ways, the most satisfactory being by steaming, or by shaking or rubbing in coarse, canvas bags. An inferior kind is obtained by boiling the fruits to obtain a decoction after they have undergone the second process. The product may come to market in beads, joined as if forming a necklace, and covered with leaves … or in small, round sticks about 18 inches long, packed in leaves and strips of cane. Other varieties are found in irregular lumps, or in a reddish powder. They are known as lump, stick, reed, tear, or saucer Dragon’s Blood.”

The Romans, Greeks, and others used a byproduct of Dracaena cinnabari, the cinnabar tree, found on an island in the Indian Ocean. The tree’s gum resin has a number of uses, including as an abortifacient and as a dye — it’s even found as a colorant in lipstick.

Some practitioners use a powdered version of Dragon’s Blood as incense. If you’d like to try this, it tends to work best if you mix it in with other dried items, and then burn it on a charcoal disc.

Depending on which magical path you may follow, there are a variety of uses for Dragon’s Blood. Cat Yronwoode of Luckymojo points out that in many Hoodoo and folk traditions, this item is used for protection, power and good fortune. It may even be turned into an ink to write out spells. She says,

“Dragon’s Blood powder is also used by women who wish to receive an offer of Marriage. They write their lover’s Name on a small square of brown paper, cross it with their own name, fold Dragon’s Blood powder into the Name-Paper, and throw the packet onto glowing charcoal along with Love Me Incense while saying their prayer.”

How Dragon’s Blood Is Used

In some Wiccan traditions of magic, Dragon’s Blood is used for healing, protection, and banishing. Many Pagan paths believe that adding Dragon’s Blood to any other incense or herb blend will increase the potency of the original mix.

Dragon’s Blood also comes in handy when it comes to cleansing a space. If the previous occupant of the location left behind some dodgy energy, burn Dragon’s Blood incense, or sprinkle the powder around the perimeter to banish away negativity. Blend it with dried sage or sweetgrass for extra metaphysical protection.

As you can probably guess, Dragon’s Blood is associated with the element of fire, so you can use it on your altar to represent fire in the absence of a candle, or use it in rituals that involve flames, the sun, heat, or power.

In some traditions of folk magic, the resin is blended into an oil. Use Dragon’s Blood oil to anoint candles or to dab on your wrists to enhance your personal power. Create a money drawing oil by adding bits of lodestone into Dragon’s Blood oil, or add cinnamon and pieces of rose quartz to create a love oil. For purification magic, add a few pieces of hematite or onyx, along with rosemary or sage, into your oil, and use it to anoint your doors and windows; this will help keep negative energy outside of your home.

5 Ways to Use Dragon’s Blood in Magic

Add it to an herbal blend of incense, to give your magic an extra boost.

Use Dragon’s Blood ink in spellwork that involves writing things down, such as names or your intention.

Anoint yourself with Dragon’s Blood oil for empowerment and protection when you’re doing any sort of dream journeys or astral travel.

Some traditions use Dragon’s Blood in love spells, particularly if you hope to receive a marriage proposal.

Use it in an herbal sachet for healing magic related to bleeding, especially involving women’s reproductive issues.

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE THIS SPELL TO A DOCUMENT FOR YOU TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY. )

The Call to the Dragons of the Quarters/Elements

This is an all-purpose dragon spell/invocation that can be done a few times a year to enhance your magical practices.

When you summon the Dragons of the Quarters, you are requesting a willing dragon to keep an eye on and direct the elemental forces connected with that quarter/direction.

At twilight create a circle of protection around you.

When you initially cast a circle, you will most likely receive multiple different dragons standing in as Quarter Guards.

You may eventually discover that the same four dragons are answering your call every time (you’ll be able to tell by the “feel” of the energy each provides). When this occurs, you may either wait for the dragon to disclose his or her name, or you can choose a name for each one.Many Dragons choose to operate in this manner, accepting the moniker as a gift. In any case, at the proper quarter, change those names with the lines “One who is willing” and “Great _ Dragon.

Face the correct direction and invoke:

East: The wonderful forces of the air have arrived from the regions of the Eastern Dragons! I summon One Who Is Willing to stand watch at the Eastern Gate. Give me supremacy over the powers of the air. Help me increase my intelligence and knowledge. Keep an eye on this circle so that anything that I do is wise! Great Eastern Dragon, hail and welcome!

South: The purifying force of Fire has arrived from the realms of the Dragons of the South! I summon One Who Is Willing to stand watch at the Southern Gate. Give me dominion over the Fire powers. Help me develop our free will and creativity. Keep an eye on this circle so that I can spread joy and beauty! Great Southern Dragon, hail and welcome!

West: Water’s cleaning power has arrived from the regions of the Dragons of the West! I summon One Willing to Guard the Western Gate! Give me dominion over Water’s abilities. Assist me in strengthening my intuition and emotional control. Keep an eye on this circle so that I can have the guts to listen to my inner voice and act accordingly! Great Western Dragon, greet and welcome!

North: The sustaining power of Earth has arrived from the kingdoms of the Dragons of the North! I summon One Who Is Willing to stand watch at the Northern Gate. Give me supremacy over Earth’s forces. Assist me in building physical, mental, and spiritual strength. Keep an eye on this circle so that I can have the courage to dive into the wonders of the cosmos! Great Northern Dragon, greet and welcome!

…

The Moon phase for October 25th, 2026 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:

 Phase Details:

Phase: Waxing Gibbous

Moon age: 14.03 days

Moon illumination: 97.59%

Moon tilt: 121.766°

Six of Wands – Minor Arcana

Success after hard work

A woman with a small dragon on her shoulder stands with a crown on her head. A five-point star is centered on her forehead, directly over the spiritual third eye. This symbolizes the woman’s connection with spiritual guidance and her access to ancient knowledge.  Before her is a table covered with rolled scrolls, quill pens, and other magickal equipment. Prominently to the front is a brass vase holding six crystal topped wands. Other small dragon fly and sit about the room. The star (pentacle of protection and a symbol of the Goddess) and the crown (spiritual enlightenment) reveal that this magician is on a higher path of life. She has gathered her will power (the wands) and placed them in a position to bring about fertility an manifestation (the vase). This fertile energy is repeated in the Celtic scrollwork carved into the table, the magician’s center for working her will.

Divinatory Meaning: You are rewarded with success after hard work. A message of good news brightens your day. There could be advancement in career. Supportive friends give you the courage to follow your dreams.

Tinne/Teine

T stands for Tinne, or Teine, the Holly tree. This evergreen plant is connected to immortality, unity, courage, and the stability of hearth and home. Pronounced chihnn-uh by the Celts, the wood of the Holly was often used in the construction of weapons, and is known as a plant of warriors and protectors.

In the pre-Christian British Isles, the Holly was often associated with protection–planting a hedge around your home would keep malevolent spirits out, thanks in no small part to the sharp spikes on the leaves. In Celtic myth, the concept of the Holly King and the Oak King symbolizes the changing of the seasons, and the transition of the earth from the growing time to the dying season.

When Christianity moved into the Celtic lands, the new religion associated the Holly plant with the story of Jesus. The poky spikes on the leaves represent the crown of thorns worn by Jesus on the cross, and the bright red berries symbolize his blood.

People born on October 24 have forceful will, ambition and are also very attractive to everyone they come across with. Just like a true Scorpio, they are convivial and sometimes even accepting. They appreciate being be listened to and traveling to far away places for long get-aways. They dislike not feeling in charge and commonness. Those born under this sign enjoy settings full of enigma and surprise.

Remarkably charming and affectionate they sometimes fall in love just for the feeling of it and not for the person near them.

IF YOUR BIRTHDAY IS ON OCTOBER 24, you as a Scorpio are not afraid of a little challenge or a big one for that matter. Some say it’s unusual as you have the appearance of being standoffish.

You have the energy of a passionate and a determined individual. People look up to you and respect you because of this. Moreover, you are dependable and trustworthy.

The October 24th birthday personality is continuously trying to find ways to improve on things and people as well. Your drive to reach the next level of success is what gets you out of bed every day.

It’s highly probable that you will reach the status you are trying to achieve but along with that comes extra responsibilities and notoriety. Please, stay humble and remember the ladder is for going up and coming down.

The October 24 birthday horoscope predicts that it is likely that you are cautious when it comes to your money. Sometimes, you could enjoy some of that money you work so hard for. You need to relax and renew.

On the other hand, you have a tendency to be attracted to professions that offer some kind of adrenaline rush. Work as a police officer, private detective or with the fire department could be your ticket to having the thrilling job you want.

You could realistically be anything you want to be although making the decision on one career path could be the hardest thing for someone born today. This 24 October zodiac birthday person has the ability to fuse their passion in business with their awesome ability to read people. This quality is also a good trait to have if you were to be employed in the Public Relations field or in trade. On a much larger scale, there are many like you in the entertainment industry.

If today is your birthday, you don’t need much help or others to motivate you. You’re confident in your abilities to accomplish any task or goal you set. It’s not likely that you are overpowered but occasionally, you face a door that will not open.

You only see it as the wrong one and keep on moving. However, I would hesitate to mess with this October 24 Scorpio birthday person! The bite of a scorpion should not be taken lightly. It could end up being detrimental to your livelihood.

What your birthday says about you is that you are a natural when it comes to knowing what to say and when to say it. People born today are remarkable individuals. This inborn quality of intuition makes you a force to be reckoned with.

However, you love life and feel that it’s better with someone to share it with. You are extremely romantic and sexual. In love, you are a Scorpio who is playful and tender though you may have a mischievous inclination. No one would know this if you were not close to a person who is born on October 24. It is not easy to get close to this Scorpio but once you do, you are in good company.

Let’s talk about the way you eat. You are confusing your body with too many of the same kinds of healthy foods and fasting. The 24th October birthday astrology predicts that you have the tendency to overdo things. Fasting is something you may do as part of your religion but it can’t be very healthy for extended periods of time. You shouldn’t starve yourself. That is typically not healthy or beneficial for anyone.

The October 24 birthday meanings show that born today are self-starters and bold, enterprising people. You want the finest things in life and you set your plans in motion to do exactly what you need to do to accomplish this.

It has been said that you are “cheap” or that you are a “miser.” Do not burn any bridges or ladders with those who you may need later. Additionally, you have this inexplicable way of attracting people.

Ace of Cups – Minor Acrana

Love; friendship; emotions; feeling

Description: In this coat of arms we see the Holy Grail. The legend reads “water my blood” and urges us “to keep silent.”

Interpretation: The Ace of Cups is the element of water at its more pure. It’s the refreshing spring bubbling up from the rocks, the trickle that will become a great river meandering to the sea. It’s the beginning of some new emotional journey. It’s the first flush of love and the aching love of life. It’s a pure feeling. It’s the Holy Grail.

Reading: The Ace of Cups represents a spring, a fountain, and the opening up of emotions. It signifies love of every kind, from romantic love to friendship. If the card is reversed then something is damming the water supply, leading to stagnation. Unlock the channels. Remember how to feel.

Cardinal

“The polarities of your spiritual pursuits and physical pleasures are out of balance, so do whatever is necessary to bring them back into equilibrium”

When on a spiritual path, it’s easy to idealize what being spiritual means. It can become a rigid mental imprint upon which you judge anything that varies from your conceptualization of what “being spiritual” is suppose to be about. This includes not only another person’s practices and beliefs, but your own. Falling short of this idealism leads to either assuming a righteous and arrogant position with others, or when self-imposed, elicits guilt and shame.

This spiritual perfectionism can make you reticent about enjoying the pleasures of the material world, as well as those of your physical body. The Earth Herself provides a dazzling and sensual panorama of experiences to be directly encountered through the physical senses. Yet for many, truly enjoying the pleasures of senses of sight, sound, taste, touch, and smell can be fraught with worry, anxiety, guilt, and shame—products of early childhood religious and/or cultural conditioning. Others become so entangled in the world of senses that it becomes their god, and their spiritual core is lost to materiality.

To be polarized in one direction or another takes you either to lofty heights and iridescent abstractions that are completely ungrounded, or else causes you to become caught up in the glue of the mundane world without the guiding light of Spirit to provide a locus of authority. With the blessing of your awareness, you can redirect your thoughts and actions towards that which brings greater balance and fluidity between two polarities.

Associations: Courtship; Singing; Vitality; Self-defense; Integration; Balance; Spirituality; Fatherhood; Harmony; Self-expression; Confidence; Listening; Intuition; Creativity; Responsibility; Colorfulness

Dagaz

Sound: “d”
Stands for: Day
Color: Yellow
Casting meaning: Dagaz represents a stability between opposites, such as light and dark. It can stop harmful energy from getting to you but at the same time allow the good energy to slip through so that you can make good use of it.

The Sun

Always a good omen, the Sun Rune means something of value is coming your way. You can look forward to taking a bold step, embarking in a new direction.

Some may be carried out of their daily grind by unexpected and fortunate events. Other will be made aware of added responsibility and will have to deal with it.

Expect public promotions and public affairs. Look to be amazed, dazzled or even shocked by scandals. An older person, or person of authority could have the answers you are now seeking.

Accept your position as a mover and shaker of the world. For you, the time is right to head for the spotlight.

Onn/Ohn

O is Onn, or Ohn, and represents the Gorse bush, sometimes called Furze. This yellow, flowery shrub grows on moors all year long, and is full of nectar and pollen. It’s a food source for many animals–the stalks are munched on by grazing livestock–but eventually Furze is set on fire. This controlled burn allows old deadwood to be gotten rid of, and clears the way for new life to begin. Gorse (Furze) represents long-term thinking and planning–knowing that sometimes we have to do without in order to gain things in the future. Gorse is a determined sort of plant that always comes back, and so it is also connected with perseverance and hope.

In some pieces of Celtic folklore, the Gorse is used as a protective barrier. Planting it around one’s home would keep the Sidhe away, and it can be shaped into a broom for sweeping away negative influences.

Ohn Correspondences

Mundane Aspects: Whatever you’ve been looking for is right around the corner–keep pursuing your goals, because they are within your reach. If you aren’t sure what path you should be on or which direction you should head, sit down and make a list of goals. Figure out the destination, and then you’ll be able to focus on the journey.

Magical Aspects: Your spiritual journey has provided you with an abundance of gifts. Don’t keep these blessings to yourself–share them with others! If you’ve been asked to take on a role as leader or mentor, now is the time to do so.

IF YOUR BIRTHDAY IS OCTOBER 23, then you are a romantic at heart. You are a mysterious Scorpio, however. You tend to expect a certain level of loyalty from your friends and you have some idealistic notions about love.

If today is your birthday, you are also a distinctive person. In a relationship, you have a tendency to keep it private but demand a lot. Ironically, you’d make a great private investigator. People born today are known to have unmistakable gut instinct.

When it comes to you and your family, you guys are close. You love your siblings and find that you are not as close to your cousins. The October 23rd birthday personality is affectionate and spiritual. You practice meditation generally in your daily routine as a part of relaxation techniques.

Although you don’t particularly care for hanging all out in public, you like to touch in private. Loyalty is a must if you want to be in a relationship with this Scorpio birthday person. You just don’t like a lot of attention like other Scorpions.

It could be possible that you haven’t found your professional niche. Someone like you may be interested in the thrill of a certain position. If it tests your skills and knowledge or even, a gift of having certain power that you need to improve on, you will do it.

Career options for the 23 October birthday personality are many. You are suited for many occupations especially when it comes to legal affairs or law enforcement. It gives you pleasure and satisfaction knowing that you can turn a negative situation into a winning campaign.

As the October 23rd birthday astrology rightly says, you can be an individual who is bloodthirsty and possibly manipulative. These qualities could be your downfall or you can use them as a positive feature. Your reputation is at stake so make your decisions carefully. Whatever field you choose, you will likely go at it with a lot of determination and with a competitive spirit.

When it comes to your health, Scorpio, you lack the ambition to work out. You have a tendency to think that maintenance is not necessary because your overall health is in good condition. However, you could spruce up your tennis game. It’s a great outdoor activity and it could be fun with the right person or people.

In the meantime, meditation seems to be working for you as a sleep aid. Your eating habits can contribute to your sleep patterns as well. Be sure to take your vitamins every day to get the maximum effects from them.

You are a mysterious Scorpio if you were born on October 23. You keep your business to yourself but would make an awesome detective or police officer. You enjoyed your childhood with your brothers and sisters and still embrace them with so much love and tenderness.

The October 23 birthday meaning suggests that you are determined to succeed as you have a competitive trait as well. Generally, your health is up for a challenge so, you should find a work out tailored just for someone born today.

The Moon phase for October 22nd, 2026 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:

Phase: Waxing Gibbous

Four

Four, among the main numbers of the numerological core, is unwavering firmness of …

Positive qualities

The positive qualities of the Four could be described as purely men’s virtues if thousands of women didn’t have them. This is high endurance, exceptional working ability, personal organization, commitment to principles and equanimity. You are firm in your beliefs, most important of which is that nothing in this world comes for free, and any reward is to be deserved.

That’s why people of your kind are the foundation of any society. They know what to do and can implement it in practice. There is nothing heroic in your manifestations, but all your life is a feat. As a consequence, only few admire you, but everyone respects you.

Negative qualities

When someone wants to point out the Four’s weakness, they first mention their stubbornness, slowness and tediousness. From a certain point of view, so it is: you always take your time not to make mistakes, and you’ll hold your ground up to the end without losing a chance to rub your opponent’s nose in their errors.

Moreover, you never hide your skeptical attitude towards rattle heads, shallow and irresponsible people. Therefore, you are often accused of being too suspicious, and your zero-tolerance of idleness and unwillingness to waste time on idle pleasures gives others a reason to consider you sullen and hard-grained.

As a Libra born on October 21st…

 Astrological symbol: Scales. This symbol suggests balance, stability and a sense of justice. It is characteristic for people born between September 23 and October 22 under the Libra zodiac sign.

 The Libra Constellation visible between +65° to -90° is one of the 12 constellations of the zodiac. It has no first magnitude stars while it covers an area of 538 sq degrees. It is placed between Virgo to the West and Scorpio to the East.

 The Latin name for the Scales, the October 21 zodiac sign is Libra. The Greeks name it Zichos while the Italians say it is Bilancia.

 Opposite sign: Aries. This means that this sign and Libra are a straight line across each other on the zodiac wheel and can create an opposition aspect. This suggests exposure and generosity as well as an interesting cooperation between the two sun signs.

 Modality: Cardinal. This suggests the structured nature of people born on October 21 and that they are a symbol of generosity and moodiness.

 Ruling house: The seventh house. This means that Libras are placed in a house which puts great interest on partnerships and the importance of having the best people around. This is somehow the life quest of Libras and the point that when achieved can bring the most satisfactions.

 Ruling body: Venus. This celestial planet reveals responsiveness and adaptability and also highlights warmth. Venus is one of the planets with double rulership, over Taurus and Libra. Element: Air. This element reveals a tidy individual with high hopes but also an inflammatory optimism and who tries to bring people together. This is considered descriptive for those born under the October 21 zodiac sign.

 Lucky day: Wednesday. This is a day ruled by Mercury, therefore symbolizes yearning and crystallization and identifies best with the Libra natives who are honest.

 Lucky numbers: 3, 4, 10, 12, 23.

 Motto: “I balance!”

 People born on October 21 are considerate beings with an innate desire for peace and understanding. They are thoughtful with others and expect the same, although at times they compromise their own wishes for what those around them desire. They are balanced and graceful just like their sign and prefer to spend time in the company of their partners or of those dear to them, moments in which they simply don’t need anything else.

 Positive Traits: These natives are kind hearted and introspective but also broad minded and often come up with ideas that others wouldn’t have thought of. They seem to search for balance the whole time and while a sense of accomplishment might come really rapidly in their lives, the real sense of self worth and sureness comes with age for them when they are sure of their awareness and efficiency.

 Negative Traits: Sometimes biased and selfish, these natives can often come up with very high demands and then turn into spiteful little beings when those around them don’t seem to follow their lead. They are also quite supervising deep inside but this only comes because of their worrisome nature, because otherwise they are not interested in showing power or similar. They can often play mistrustful just because they haven’t come up with a certain explanation.

Love and Compatibility: Lovers born on October 21 are romantic and affectionate. They seek for a lifetime partner to whom they can commit and create a balanced and accomplishing relationship. They are attracted to enthusiastic and imaginative people that are as reliable as they are. You can conquer the heart of Libra if you are trustworthy and energetic. When they are single they are in no hurry to enter a relationship if they don’t feel it’s the right thing to do, they focus instead on their own self development.

They are likely to surprise everyone around them with the passionate love they are capable of, only if they come across someone that will truly awake their interest. Otherwise they are aware of their attractiveness and this leads them to a tumultuous love life, falling in and out of love. A creative, freedom lover, once decided to settle will invest all their attention in their family and they will probably have brilliant children. Some struggle, trial and error will govern parts of their love life but in the end everything will be worth it. They are most compatible with those born on the 6th, 9th, 15th, 18th, 24th and 27th.

October 21 Zodiac people are very attached to the other two air signs: Gemini and Aquarius as they tend to share the same vision of life. In life, Libra is in a constant search for an active and visionary partner to expand their horizon and the one to offer them this is the native in Aquarius. The lover in Libra is thought to be least compatible with Aries. As for the rest of compatibilities between the other star signs and Libra, you know what they say, stars predispose but people dispose.

Lucky Color: The lucky color for those born under the October 21 is represented by blue. Other colors for Libra people are pink and green.

Representative Birthstone: The versatile and attractive Opal is the birthstone said to be representative for Libras born with October 21. Another gemstone considered beneficial for Libra natives is Jade. It represents wits and intuition.

Characteristic Flower: The lucky flower for those born under the October 21 is represented by Rose. Other plants for Libra natives are the flowers of all fruit trees.

Symbolic Metal: The lucky metal for those born under the October 21 is Bronze. Another metal considered beneficial for Libra natives is Copper.

Characteristics: October 21 Zodiac belongs to the third decan of LIBRA (October 14-October 22). This decan is strongly influenced by the planet Mercury. This is representative for people who are sympathetic and dependable just like Libra and communicative spirits just like Mercury. This period tempers the positive and negative characteristics of the Libra zodiac sign, slightly enhancing the negative ones.

Being born on the 21st day of the month means creativity coupled with intuition and a practical, detail oriented approach to life matters. The numerology for October 21 is 3. This number reveals great human interactions and all kinds of communication. People ruled by number three sure know their way around words. The association between Libra and this number will surface eloquence and great people skills in the first.

October is the tenth month of the year, bringing the opportunity for provision like activities. Those born in October are attentive and modest. October 21 Zodiac people are opinionated but loyal. October has as representative symbols the Calendula as plant and the Aquamarine and Opal as gemstones. The name of this month comes from the Latin “octo”.

Statistics Say: In a year in the Gregorian Calendar, October 21 is the 294th day or the 295th day in case of leap years and until the end of the year there are left 71 days. The fifty first day of autumn, this is also the Trafalgar Day.

Libra is placed fifth in order of occurrence on the list of most common to least common zodiac signs. Exuding positive meaning and a enchanting energy, this is an odd numbered sign with a masculine symbolism. This exemplifies extrovert natives who are companionable and sociable. Amongst the archetypes used when talking about this sign there is the Socialite. There is a slight peak of athletes and other sportsmen born in Libra.

Famous people born on October 21 under the Libra zodiac sign: Judge Judy Sheindlin, Benjamin Netanyahu, Amber Rose and Kim Kardashian.

If you were born on October 21st…

October 21 Libra at Their Best: Adventurous, visionary, persuasive

October 21 Libra at Their Worst: Destructive, argumentative, pushy

What to Wear: Go trendy, but not too flashy. Libra will be watching the crowd and silently critiquing everyone’s ability to keep up with style and elegance.

What to Eat: Keep it healthy — you don’t have to go as far as no carb, gluten-free and vegan, but some meatless dishes and low-fat fare will be greatly appreciated.

Who to Invite: Restrict your list to the more refined people in the crowd. Libra doesn’t like noise, arguments or lewd behavior … unless it’s in their bedroom.

Where to Go: The newest, trendiest club or restaurant you can find.

IF YOUR BIRTHDAY IS ON OCTOBER 21, you are a loyal Libra. You are able to communicate effectively with others and with those from different backgrounds and social status.

Where you feel most appreciated and energetic is in a social setting surrounded by people who admire you. People flock to you to hear your jokes or your stories.

Mainly, they respect your ability to share your experiences openly. In addition, the 21st October birthday personality tends to be there for friends no matter what differences of opinion they may have.

As the October 21st birthday horoscope rightly predicts you are fun to be around and perhaps a little naughty. You love to play and joke around… maybe you are a rebellious Libra.

Whatever could be said about you, courageous is one of them. If there is a social rule to be broken, you are likely the one to break it. Even as a parent, you are still a lot of fun or at least that is what the children say.

As the 21 October birthday zodiac sign is Libra, you are relatively emotional individuals. You are very sensitive. At times, others and their needs overwhelm you.

If today is your birthday, you are an affectionate person who sometimes takes on too much of other people’s problems. Making decisions can be painful for you but for the most part, you balance out the good and the bad.

The October 21 birthday astrology analysis shows that your family and friends are very important to you. This Libran is spiritual and it shows. You never turn away anyone who is in need. You are always concerned with doing the right thing. As a lover, you are intense, carefree and extremely impulsive and romantic. In fact, you look for those same qualities in a mate.

When it comes to your work, you take great pride in knowing that you are not limited to one profession. Versatile, intelligent, and success-oriented can describe the person with an October 21st zodiac birthday.

With your natural talents, you are well suited to work in the advertising industry or to be a professor at the local university. More so, a compatible occupation for a Libra born today is in public relations or in the legal field.

Since the October 21 birthday personality is multi-talented, you have a tendency to switch jobs more than any other zodiac sign. Those born on this birthday are people who like things done their way. Be watchful of your financial status before you make this move as it could decrease your savings and spending.

The 21 October birthday meanings show that your health is generally good except for one thing. You have a tendency to over-eat. Some of you born on this day fight obesity because of this and because of your love for sweets.

Nonetheless, it is easy to avoid this if you want to. Walks in the park or a bike ride about 3 times a week will help keep you slim and trim. Moreover, it is a good cardio workout. You will need to use self-discipline in order to do this.

The October 21st Libra birthday people are usually joyful and attract others like bees to honey. Your goal in life is to make others happy and better it would seem. You may be slow to make a decision sometimes but you will make the best possible answer.

However, one should not bring too many problems to this Libra’s table because this will engulf the person born on this day. You are more concerned with keeping things serene and beautiful. Having the ability to see each person’s point of view allows you to do this.

I have a migraine and in a horrible fibromyalgia flare both from stress. There is a lot of negative things happening in my private life and it is affecting me in many ways one of which is pain mentally and physically. I apologize for not being more consistent in posting over the last few months. I am going to lay down and listen to some music that soothes me. This normally helps the migraine to go away or at least become manable enough that I can finish today’s posts. Thank you dear WOTC family for your understanding, support, and all the happiness your comments and emails bring into my life.

The Goddesses and Gods must really want to help me getting back to you. I had my witchy songs play list playing and out of the blue I started hearing something I have never heard before. YouTube with the help of my patron dities, Ra/Luna/Mother Earth/Pan, sent me this. I always amazes me even after practicing The Craft as both a spiritual and magickal path that I get what I need from them and the Universe as a whole exactly when I need it. So my dear family I am sharing the link with you that started playing not as a choice by me but as a choice for me. This music is soothing me already. I hope it does the same for everyone who needs it wither today, tomorrow, next week, or whenever you feel the music call to you.

Four Of Wands

The meaning of the Four of Wands Shadowscapes Tarot

Spring has come, flowers bloom everywhere. The roses spread the sweet fragrance as an invitation to all residents of the mysterious kingdom. From the east, the ground shook with the footsteps of the unicorns, leaping forward by the call and leading the Fairy messengers to the party. The cold season is still fluttering in the air, but this delay should be seen as a joy, and then more wonderful work must be started. Until then, let’s be wise to take advantage of this resting period.

The Fairy messengers lifted the trumpets up high, and then exerted themselves to create a thunderous sound that spread throughout the dawn. Accordingly, the strong wind blowing, disturbing the mane and the wings as if waking everything out of their deep periods of sleep. More quickly, they glided until the world turned into a small colored patch, then with a joyful scream, they burst into the air and glided through the sky.

The Four of Wands Shadowscapes Tarot calls for celebrations and anniversaries. The initial success brought the atmosphere that filled with hope and joy. There is always a peaceful and harmonious feeling for anyone who comes here. However, once the goal has been achieved, this prosperity needs to be sustained. Let’s take time to relax and enjoy, but do not forget to prepare to return to work to achieve this goal. The fire must always burn. So, it needs to be nourished to keep the flames constantly burning, not extinguishing into sparks. Let’s learn to give up the limits and know how to embrace bestowed freedom.

Keywords related to the Four of Wands Shadowscapes Tarot: peace, achievement, commemoration, satisfaction, blessing, harmony, secure, stability, partnership, success, accomplishment, harvest, improvement, prosperity, enjoyment, praise, productivity, wealth, contentment, happiness, vacation, relaxation, marriage, honeymoon, reward.

Ngetal

Healing, cleaning, cleansing, catharsis, paring down

Tree: Broom (Cytisus spp.)

Letter: Ng

Like when a fever breaks, broom signifies the end of a struggle and the subsequent ability to clear out the junk to make way for a newer, more positive approach. Walking a way from a bad habit or situation can be painful, but not necessarily so. It may also be gradual. Overall, Ngetal is the importance of getting rid of old junk and baggage (this could be actual clutter or psychological baggage, which of course are intimately linked) or it could mean the resolution of action against someone who has wronged you, whether it is forgiveness or cutting and clearing them out of your life. If it is forgiveness, Ngetal suggests it is coming from a genuine place of inner peace. Apologizing does not necessarily make you an apologist.

There is a process of analysis and reflection that eventually distances anger and enables you to feel it without being puppeted by it. Letting go of attachments that aren’t healthy, for instance, an obsession with being liked for the way you look, will help you develop in ways that fulfill your purpose in this life. Ngetal could signify you are beginning to release anxieties about what you have no control over, which will go a long way in healing your spirit

The Superior Person weighs his words carefully and is consistent in his behavior.

Be as faithful as a good wife.

SITUATION ANALYSIS:

One in this situation must be keenly aware of his influence on others.

To some you serve as a role model.
You can either help shape their world or tilt them into chaos.
Show temperance and consideration to all.

17 – Seventeen

It is spiritual growth, faith, and balance. It is also wealth or bankruptcy. It is an inner struggle to remain true to spiritual and moral values, while at the same time dedicating itself to the material world – one of the most conflicting numbers.

111 – One Hundred Eleven

Number 111 means that energy gate is opened and your thoughts are materializing so quickly right now. Choose carefully your thoughts at this time. They need to be in harmony with your wishes and desires. Give absolutely no energy to fears, otherwise they can become reality and get fulfilled quicker than you thought.
