Get A Jump On Tomorrow…

Your Horoscopes for Tuesday, November 10th

Aries

This is an excellent day for review of all kinds, dear Aries, and perhaps some research as you prepare for a new cycle that begins tomorrow with a New Moon. A Mercury-Pluto connection encourages useful insight into business or financial matters, as well as strategy in general for achieving important goals. It can also give you a real sense that you can work on emotional matters successfully, conquer fears, and put a hampering problem behind you. There can be an intimate moment today that opens you up to new possibilities and that inspires you. For some, it’s about sharing a bit of yourself with someone you love. Work matters can be especially fruitful now, and you might see areas that you can improve that will bring rewards going forward. You may be making important changes and edits that leave you feeling prouder of what you do.

Taurus

Today is strong for honing in on areas of waste or neglect, dear Taurus, with a plan to turn them around. It can also be a time for gaining new insight into a person you care about or a relationship’s dynamics. You can make a good connection through, or feel supported by, a partner, friend, or in-law. It’s a strong time in your life for warm, positive energy with others, and for creative activities or entertainment that allow you to express yourself in new ways. Friendly gestures and communications from others lift your spirits to new heights, or you might decide to be the one to reach out to others, finding joy in inspiring or motivating others. A New Moon will occur tomorrow in your opposing sign, bringing nice energy for starting fresh in a relationship. Today, observe others and listen to your own heart for clues as to where you might want to head, whether this is toward or with a relationship.

Gemini

This is a strong time for seeing something more clearly, dear Gemini, or for gaining new insight into your work, business, family affairs, or health, dear Gemini. The Moon is Balsamic, making today better for reflection than new beginnings, but it’s an excellent time to get to a better understanding of your own needs and for getting a better handle on your responsibilities. This is an important day for seeing what is no longer good for you, whether that’s an attitude, a project, a habit, or possibly even a habit. There can also be important information coming in about work possibilities or your present job, and you might be projecting an especially positive message about your skills and abilities. You can send a positive message about your own competence and skills. Opportunities to work from home, to reorganize and improve your home life, or to make your daily affairs a little easier, may pop up now. Enjoy yourself and express your affections for the people you love.

Cancer

You can gain new insight into a partner, love interest, or relationship itself today, dear Cancer. There can be a pleasantly intimate feel to the morning, which suits you just fine! Conversations with a partner, romantic interest, and children are especially good and helpful today. Creatively speaking, it’s a time for seeing things more clearly and for feeling things more deeply, but also for expressing yourself with power and positivity. You have the ability to create a pleasing balance between fun and work. Particularly later today, you can enjoy a good feeling of growth in your connections. You might also be inclined to flirting or more serious expressions of affection. With a New Moon occurring tomorrow, today is better for reflecting and tying up loose ends, however, than for entirely new endeavors. Take the time to see what needs to go and what you want to bring forward with you in the new cycle ahead.

Leo

A mystery may be solved this morning, dear Leo, or a conversation occurs that provides the missing puzzle piece. It’s a good time to sort out your work or home space and get into a more organized head space as well. Focus should be on what needs to be left behind, dropped, and wrapped up – those things you don’t need to bring forward with you. There is good energy for projecting a sunny, warm disposition. Fulfillment comes through attention to family matters and personal possessions, and feelings of support derived from your closest connections. You might enjoy especially warm relations with family, and take great comfort in the security that comes with it. Don’t be afraid to get creative about family, money, home, and business matters, but save brand new beginnings for after the New Moon that occurs tomorrow.

Virgo

Your insight is strong today, dear Virgo, so that you can get to the bottom of an issue that was previously baffling. Relationships with children can also be enhanced today. Conversations cut to the chase. As the day moves forward, a spirit of openness emerges and grows. This can open up doors to you for self-expression. It’s a strong day for all things social, and there might be a revealing conversation, a piece of good news, or new information coming in that makes you happy. Your connections with others, including siblings, acquaintances, and classmates, can grow by leaps and bounds. Establishing trust can be successful now. Keep in mind that there is a New Moon tomorrow, making today strong for reflection and letting go rather than brand new launches or endeavors.

Libra

Insights about your money situation or business today can help you to reach for new goals after the wonderful energy of the New Moon tomorrow, dear Libra. You are especially insightful when it comes to how to make your life more secure and comfortable, and what attitudes or projects may be better off left behind you in order to make room and space for new ones to enter your life. While you’re a little more retiring than usual, some networking or socializing today could bring financial tips or money-making ideas or simply a boost in mood. There is a gentle, positive touch to your manner, particularly as the day progresses, and this can help you to gain trust. It’s also a little easier than usual to see the bright side of things now.

Scorpio

This is the day before a New Moon that will occur in your sign, dear Scorpio, and this is typically a time for laying low, resting, thinking, and letting go. It’s important to clear out space, emotionally and perhaps literally if your surroundings could use a clean up, so as to invite the “new” into your life. Today’s energies are a little busier than usual, but not so stimulating that you won’t have time to think about new goals and aspirations. In fact, a pleasing aspect between Mercury and your ruler, Pluto, this morning can encourage you to dig a little deeper for ideas. It’s a great influence for seeing your priorities. As the day moves forward, the Sun in your sign harmonizes with optimistic, generous Jupiter, and this encourages making connections and improving friendships. You may be gaining someone’s trust, clearing the air, and feeling better for it.

Sagittarius

There is nice energy for tying up loose ends today, dear Sagittarius, and for making peace with the past, for several astrological reasons. The Sun and Mercury are both in your sector of karma, the past, and privacy, and both bodies get help from growth-oriented bodies – Jupiter and Pluto, respectively. As well, today’s Balsamic Moon lends beautiful energy for releasing, purging, and letting go of those things you no longer need. New insight into past matters can come now, and may lead you to very important conclusions. While you may not be especially accessible today as you can be quite wrapped up in your thoughts, you nevertheless have a warm glow to you. You might reach out to others in order to help. An open hand, a generous spirit, and integrity are key ingredients to your success on social and practical levels today. Rest, heal, and reflect today for best results!

Capricorn

This can be a wonderful time in your life for teaching, learning, and sharing, dear Capricorn. Friendships are in strong focus, and so are team efforts, group associations, community goals, and long-term plans that excite and motivate you for the future. You are thinking in innovative ways, and this will help you to maximize the potential of tomorrow’s New Moon. Today, you need to also look to the present and past in order to see what you may need to let go or put aside in order to make room for new energy coming in. A new insight into a friendship, or even a business deal or long-term plan, can be had now. There could be special ease felt with others. Educational, travel, and other mind-expanding activities can thrive, or opportunities for these things can present themselves in the coming weeks. Now is a good time to learn about your deeper needs and desires so that goal-setting in the coming week will be a true reflection of what’s in your heart.

Aquarius

There is more power to your communications, dear Aquarius, and generally an inability to escape attention today! This can be a very strong day to discuss professional and business-related matters with a trusted authority, mull over life path goals on your own, as well as to brainstorm and come up with solutions with others. The image you project now and in the coming weeks is important to your overall progress. Tomorrow’s New Moon sets you on a new path as you redefine your goals or plump out the details of current plans. Today, it’s more appropriate to learn your heart in order to know what’s best for you, or what to strive towards going forward. You can have a good sense that whatever leaves your life now is no longer necessary. Some of you could gain support from a surprising or hidden source, and most should enjoy favorable attention from both superiors and peers.

Pisces

This is a good time for coming to a greater understanding of a recent problem or setback, dear Pisces. This is a good time for friendships, networking, making connections, and partnering or negotiating matters. Others can be integral to goals that involve learning new things and even a new trade, gaining exciting experiences, publishing, traveling, teaching, or learning – all themes that are emphasized in the coming weeks with a New Moon about to occur in the sector of your solar chart that rules these things. The common denominator here is broadening your horizons. This is a time for expanding a business, idea, or relationship, and for taking something to new heights. Today, take in all that you can. Information can surface that helps you, or this may be about becoming inspired to alter your path. For some of you, there may be a shared adventure or new experience occurring soon that enlivens your relationships.

If You Were Born Today, November 9

You are an articulate, sensitive, and intuitive person. You can also be quite stubborn! Your mind is such that you absorb a lot of diverse information and you can be a jack of all trades. You are a true problem solver. Your sarcastic sense of humor can be biting at times. Not everyone knows that it hides a sensitive, self-protective soul. You can easily get yourself into a rut because of your rather fixed, stubborn nature.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, November 9th

Aries

The Moon continues to transit your partnership sector until an hour before day’s end, dear Aries, and you are relationship-focused, amiable, and accommodating. A friendly aspect between the Sun and Chiron can further ease your relationships, lending a nice feeling of encouragement to the day. There is a sense that you can learn and grow through your interactions. This influence serves to lighten your mood and give you the perspective you need. Resolving conflicts is easier, and intimate conversations can now serve to reinforce and reward. You might strengthen a relationship through shows of support and compassion. An emotional encounter can be heart-warming and offer you valuable insights into your life. If someone’s making you feel claustrophobic later today, when you may be second-guessing things, it’s a sign that you might be giving up too much for the sake of peace and at the expense of your own inner happiness.

Taurus

While you can be quite focused on your daily affairs and practical matters today, dear Taurus, there is strong energy with you for relating. You might get to know someone better through their opinions and ideas, and your amazing listening skills. There is pleasing, humble energy to your social life, and this feels especially good to you. You are supportive and others tend to support and respect you, or give you the space and encouragement to be yourself. This can also be a good time for making a new connection or for boosting a current relationship with acceptance. Later today, the mood could change, and it’s important to try not to second-guess things. Recognize a need for change rather than feeling that others are caging you in.

Gemini

While you’re certainly in the mood for some fun today, dear Gemini, there is also good energy for work and health. There may even be some recognition for what you do, particularly as you are remaining humble as you produce and perform! There can also be an opportunity to learn a new method or you could come into some useful information that helps you get the job done more effectively. Listen to wise counsel today – it may in fact lead to a boost in your health and well-being. It feels good when others value your helpfulness or the services you provide, and this is likely today. While there can be a somewhat jagged or hectic pace at times today, you’re seeing the bigger picture and are more able than usual to hone in on your priorities.

Cancer

This is a good time for creative activities, dear Cancer, and for natural self-expression. You can feel especially free to be yourself, to explore new ideas, and to share a bit of yourself, or simply your good mood, with others. You are appreciated for your unique qualities and not afraid to express them. You are not afraid to be different, and not going out of your way to be, either. There can be especially honest and open exchanges, in fact, and you can play a role in helping someone to heal and move forward. Your unique vision or personal philosophy can be recognized and enjoyed now. The latter part of the day can introduce some surprises, largely work-related or having to do with responsibilities, but try not fret about these.

Leo

This can be a busy day, but pleasantly so, dear Leo. You may be feeling especially “at home” wherever you are – comfortable with others and especially in your own skin with the Sun and Chiron in harmony and energizing your sectors of feeling. Family matters tend to support your mood, and your intuition runs wonderfully high. You are also especially intuitive, able to feel out what others may need and reading signals well. Whether you are trying to or not, you are drawing others’ attention and making a strong personal impact. In fact, it may be understatement that works best for you now. The day can be hectic later today, and you may be torn between venturing out or getting the rest you need.

Virgo

This is a good day for learning, studying, communicating, and negotiating, dear Virgo. You are listening and sharing equally, which makes you an especially good conversationalist now. You are likely to receive favorable, positive responses to your ideas or plans. Make time for others. Your persuasive powers are in good form, but today is more about getting to know others and picking up helpful information. Your understanding of others is tremendous, and this helps endear you to them. It’s a strong day for putting your energy into your work and projects. However, if you’ve been doing too much, you’ll feel the resultant tension later today. Fortunately, it’s relatively easy to get back into a positive and determined frame of mind.

Libra

You are unlikely to be looking for recognition or appreciation explicitly today, dear Libra, but you’re likely to receive it. Sometimes what we don’t do is as important as what we do, and today, the simpler and more genuine, the better. Work or business can come together nicely now. Solutions to problems today won’t come if forced or overanalyzed – you’re best off focusing what you need to do at a gentle pace. Later today, there may be some tension in your interactions – a temporary disruption likely having to do with a need for change that is not yet acknowledged. Recognizing this is the most important step towards resolving problems now. Even with some surprise elements to the day, this is a nice period for resolving conflicts generally speaking, and tomorrow, more healing energy should arrive.

Scorpio

While you may need to deal with scheduling problems or tension from surprise elements that disrupt your routines today, dear Scorpio, this is a strong day for getting a real grip on your life. You’re magnetic and attracting wonderful feedback and some admiration. Even if the admiration is from a distance, you’re likely to feel it energizing you. It’s not everyday that we are acknowledged, and of course it’s important to learn how to create our own happiness when feedback is negative or indifferent. However, it feels good to get the boost now and again. Personal relations should be good now, and expressing yourself and your ideas more freely is part of this. A humble approach is the most becoming today. You might be a mentor of sorts right now, guiding someone to a better mental space. The Moon moves into your sign in the last hour of the day, bringing emotional needs to the surface.

Sagittarius

There can be much to learn through a little meditation or introspection today, dear Sagittarius. There can be a feeling that you’re centered and supported now, and you are exploring your inner resources. This can be a wonderful time for helping others as well, even if it’s about listening and acknowledging. Reflection can be especially good now, as there is a tendency for the ego to take a backseat, which frees you up to connect with your true feelings. In this way, you might come to a better understanding of why something happened in your past. It’s also a good time to speak to someone you trust, as there is more openness and receptivity, at least in the first half of the day. A hurried pace later on could disrupt the flow temporarily.

Capricorn

Personal energy is flowing smoothly today, dear Capricorn. There is a natural, organic flow of conversation and ideas now that is gently inspiring and motivating. Your words or ideas can find a receptive, approving audience. In fact, you may even help someone get through a rough patch, or inspire someone with your attention and advice. There can also be increased confidence in cherished dreams and plans of a personal or social nature, and if you want to share these with others, support is generally forthcoming. Today’s energies generally favor a gentle approach, although there can be some tendency for a hectic pace later today, and possibly a minor conflict between the need to attend to family or personal matters and the desire to keep other connections and relationships alive. Even so, it’s relatively easy to focus your mind as the day draws to a close.

Aquarius

This is a strong day for getting a good sense of what you truly value on practical and professional levels, dear Aquarius, and also good for financial judgment. Your close relationships and partnerships can get a boost as well, particularly with an open and humble approach. You are both learning and guiding now, and others tend to be treating you respectfully or giving you the space to breathe and do your thing. You are also in a fine position to demonstrate or employ your natural talents or know-how. Focus on the unique elements that you bring to your work and your partnerships, and watch as you attract the right resources and people to you. The desire to talk, share your experiences, and open up to others may be strong. Later today, be a little more alert to the words you choose to express yourself. You may be stirring up a bit of controversy.

Pisces

This can be a warm, vital day, dear Pisces, in which your unique manner is found to be especially endearing. There can be a guiding/learning theme today, and openness that leads to improvement and growth. Sharing ideas and personal philosophies can be bonding and rewarding now. You are especially drawn to people who are open-minded and tolerant, and there is optimism in your approach. The Moon continues to transit your solar eighth until the last hour of the day, when it moves into your adventure sector. By the 11th, the Sun and Moon will meet in this area of your solar chart, and you’ll find the motivation and energy to broaden your horizons in important ways, perhaps through publishing or promotional efforts, travel, or studying. For now, it’s a wonderful time to explore your own need for fresh experiences and ideas.

After Thursday there’s nothing you won’t do to ensure your relationship works.

You’re about to find out. Game on!

Taurus Horoscope Apr 20 – May 20

A New Moon in your relationship sector on Wednesday will help you and your partner begin anew in some capacity. Whether you’ve been together for years or if you’re newly attached doesn’t matter.

The two weeks after this New Moon offer you a green light to go for it … together.

Gemini Horoscope May 21 – Jun 20

Your love life is sure to heat up this week. Mars, the planet of energy and sex, will enter your romance sector for the first time in two years this Thursday. Until January 3 you’ll have the opportunity to pursue more pleasure than you have in quite some time. With Venus already in this part of your chart, if you’re single, a love connection is imminent! If you’re attached, expect passion everywhere. On Friday you and your partner will feel as if you’ve got something that can stand the test of time. It can.

Cancer Horoscope Jun 21 – Jul 22

A New Moon in your romance sector on Wednesday has great potential. If you’re single, use the two weeks following this lunation to circulate more and increase your odds of meeting someone special. You’re likely to fall for the strong and silent type now … the deep and mysterious person who is trying to get lost in the crowd rather than stand out. Getting to know this person might be your main priority and if so, you’re not likely to be disappointed.

Leo Horoscope Jul 23 – Aug 22

You already have the grace to communicate with your mate thanks to Venus moving into your message sector last week. This week, on Thursday, you’ll also gain the courage to discuss any situation that you previously felt anxious or intimidated about. Mars will join the same area of your chart as Venus, and will remain there until January 3. You will not shy away from talking about anything. On Friday you’ll even notice that you and your partner can make an important decision effortlessly.

Virgo Horoscope Aug 23 – Sep 22

An intense discussion with your sweetheart on Tuesday might lead to a positive turning point in your relationship. The two of you might both be wondering exactly where this romance is going. Although you might not reach a solid definition just yet, one thing will become clear: You’re both invested in seeing exactly where the road leads.

Libra Horoscope Sep 23 – Oct 22

You’re already the “fairest of them all” these days thanks to Venus moving through your sign since last week. This week, you’ll also become the sexiest of them all!

Scorpio Horoscope Oct 23 – Nov 21

In many ways, this is your week. A New Moon on Wednesday will fall in your sign, allowing you to create an important fresh start in just about any area of your life you choose. If it happens to be your love life you’re looking to change, you’re in luck. This lunation will be at a gorgeous angle to Neptune, the planet of inspiration, now in your romance sector. A soul mate might be closer than you think. Manifest it.

Sagittarius Horoscope Nov 22 – Dec 21

A New Moon in Scorpio this Wednesday might have more of an effect on your intimate life than you think. It will fall in your private 12th house — the area of your chart connected to deep anxieties, and where we tend to sabotage ourselves due to insecurity or blind spots. Since Scorpio is all about deep intimacy, you’ll now have an opportunity to face one of your most crushing fears or worries connected to getting as close as possible with someone special. Be brave.

Capricorn Horoscope Dec 22 – Jan 19

If you’re looking to jumpstart your social life, you’re in luck. This Wednesday a New Moon will fall in your 11th House of Groups and Friends. If you’ve been neglecting your personal life in favor of career pursuits, you might realize that you’re now a bit lonely. Romance might also have eluded you because you’re usually so busy prioritizing work. No worries! Now, you’ll have more invitations and opportunities to enjoy time with friends. Take them — it might lead to you meeting someone quite captivating.

Aquarius Horoscope Jan 20 – Feb 18

If you’re single and looking to meet someone special, your prospects look quite interesting these days. Last week love planet Venus entered the part of your chart connected to mind expansion and internationalism. This suggests that you might meet someone new through a learning endeavor (college campus for example), through international travel, or even meet someone who is from another part of the world. This Thursday action planet Mars joins the same part of your chart in relationship Libra. This might trigger a meeting.

Pisces Horoscope Feb 19 – Mar 20

If you’re in a relationship, there’s a lot happening these days around joint finances as well as the more intimate physical and psychological depths of your love connection. This week, it’s possible that you and your mate will gain the courage to work through a situation that you both have tried hard to sweep under the rug in the past. This approach is not serving you well. In fact, it’s only eroding the trust you have in each other. Fortunately, you’ll both feel motivated to fix it. Get to work!

The Witches Magick for Monday, November 9th – Divining Love

Divining Love

This spell utilizes the ancient art of dowsing to answer your questions regarding love.

You will need two seventeen-inch lengths of wire and two five-inch hollow tubes. Copper wire works best with copper tubing as the holders. If nothing else, you can use metal coat hangers and straws.

Bend the wires into L shapes, with the long arm being twelve inches and the short arm five inches. The holders go around the short end. The wire should move freely around in the holder.

Hold the wire rods in each hand, outward from your waist, and take a deep breath in and out, and say:

May the Goddess bless these divining rods

as a true and clear oracle.

Now, think of a question regarding love and state it aloud three times. The rods should start parallel to one another. As you ask your question, watch what the rods do. If they open up, it’s a positive answer to your question. If they cross one another, it’s a negative response to your question.

Let’s Talk Witch – Candle Magic

Candle Magic

Candle magic is the oldest magic there is. Early wise people concentrated on flames from cave fires to foretell the future or solve a problem. Staring at the flame was the perfect way to go into an alpha state and connect with the spirit world to see past, present and future details of someone’s life or the unfolding events of the village or community.

It is the simplest magic there is because candles are easy to find, and the ritual doesn’t take much work. The beauty of candle magic is that you can manifest just about anything you want to by concentrating on the flame and clearing your mind.

To begin, it is important that you do NOT eat before a ritual or have sex before a ritual. Be clear of body and mind, and spirit because it make the spell more powerful. It also helps that you begin your ritual with a positive mind. You must know and believe the outcome of the spell will be positive and beneficial to all.

Make sure your space is quiet, and clear of clutter. You may want to play soft music or take a cleansing bath with lavender or other aromas of your choosing to relax before you start your spell.

It is important to choose the color of the candle that corresponds with what you desire to manifest.

 White = purity, peace, spirituality

 Red = sexual vitality, courage, energy, health

 Pink = romantic love, affection, friendships

 Yellow = creative imagination, memory, communication

 Green = abundance, harmony, good luck, fertility

 Blue = wisdom, psychic insights, psychic protection, healing

 Purple = success in financial affairs, idealism and spiritual power.

 Gold = positive

 Silver = clairvoyance, astral energies and channeling, also the faculty of far memory and remembering past lives.

Once you have chosen the candle you want to use for your spell, give it your personal vibration. Handle the candle with both hands, study the wax in it, look at it carefully and try to connect with your candle and give it your intention or thought. This gives the wax your life force. Use essential oil (not necessary but helpful) on the candle. Always rub the candle with the oil from the top to the bottom when anointing.

While oiling your candle think about what you wish to accomplish with this magic. Visualize the spell successful and see your desires manifest before you light the candle.

Then light the candle and focus on the flame for at least 5-15 minutes, clearing your mind of all thought and visualize what you want to manifest.

Celebrating 365 Days of Legends, Folklore & Spirituality for November 9th – Loy Krathog, Lord Mayor’s Day

November 9th

Loy Krathog, Lord Mayor’s Day

Loy Krathog is the traditional wishing festival of Thailand. On this day, small boats are fashioned from banana peels and lotus leaves. When the sun sets, people take their boats to the shore, where they fill them with offerings of incense and gardenia petals. A white candle is then placed in the boat along with a wish. The boats are then set adrift on the water. It is believed that if the candle in the boat stays lit until its owner can no longer see, then the wish will be granted.

After the calendar reform of 1752 the Lord Mayor’s Day was moved from October 28 to November 9. It is on this day that “Mock Mayors” are elected in many of the poorer English towns. The elections are designed to poke good-natured fun at some of the more prestigious municipalities and their sometimes times pompous politicians. Of course, the more offensive the candidate is, the more joy in having him take the podium, whereupon a cabbage stalk is presented to him to serve as hiis mayoral mace. The festivities are usually followed by somewhat raucous behavior and of course the usual drinking and feasting.

Monday Is Ruled By the Moon

4. Celtic

Monday Is Ruled By the Moon

This day of the week is dedicated to the moon and all of her magic and mystery. Mondays are for women’s mysteries, illusion, prophetic dreaming, emotions, travel, and fertility.

Some suggestions for Monday enchantments would include:

*Getting outside and looking for the moon in the heavens. Sit under her light and absorb a little glamour. Call on the moon goddess Selene for practical help in magical issues.

*Invoking the god Thoth for wisdom and insight

*Empowering your silver jewelry under the light of the moon. Wear moonstone or pearl jewelry today to add a lunar and magical shimmer to your outfit. Be mysterious and subtle and wear moon-associated colors such as white, silver, and blue.

*Working spells for safe travel with a simple moonstone

*Gathering bluebells, jasmine, gardenias, or white roses to create a little garden witchery with the flowers that are associated with the moon

*Setting up a lunar Tarot spell today to increase your psychic powers

*Eating a lunar fruit such as a melon to be healthy, serene, and at peace

*Brewing up a cup of chamomile or mint tea and enchanting it for sweet dreams and restful sleep

Aspects of the Moon In Scorpio

General: Loyalty, ownership (but watch out for suspicion and anger), matters requiring insight, increasing your libido or to attract passionate love (be careful though as relationships with a Scorpio influence are likely to be transformational and not always predictable!), healing of the mind and emotions, scrying, concentration, single mindedness, rebirth, transformation, wisdom, karma and instinct.

Daily Magickal Applications for Monday, November 9th

DAILY MAGICKAL APPLICATIONS FOR MONDAY

Monday is named after the moon. The Latin term for Monday is Dies Lunae (“moon’s day”); in the Old English language, this day was Monandaeg; in Greek, it was Hermera Selenes. All of these different names and languages translate to the same thing: the “day of the moon.”

Working with the different phases of the moon is an important skill that takes a bit of time for Witches to learn. So why not cut to the chase and experiment with the day of the week that is dedicated to the moon in all of its magickal energies and aspects?

Magickally, Monday encourages the lunar energies of inspiration, illusion, prophetic dreams, emotions, psychic abilities, travel, women’s mysteries, and fertility.

Monday Is A Day of Witchery, Magick and Enchantment

Think for a moment on all of the witchery, magick and enchantments that you have discovered. Don’t be afraid to adjust spells to suit your own specific needs. Any gentle, illusory, and dreamy charms and spells can be enhanced when you work on the day of the week that is dedicated to the moon. Mondays are a fantastic day to boost your psychic abilities and to tune in to your intuition and empathy. It also gives you the opportunity to work with a different lunar phase each and every Monday, which means in one month you could work four different types of moon magicks on Mondays. How’s that for adding to your repertoire? You are going to have mad skills in no time at all.

So light up those lunar scented candles and add a little mystique to your outfit by wearing an enchanting lunar color. Wear your sparkling silver jewelry and maybe add a pair of dangling silver earrings or a pendant shaped like a crescent moon. Create lunar potions and philters; make a dream catcher and give it as a gift to someone you love. Burn some sandalwood or jasmine-scented incense today to inspire the glamour and magick of the moon. Slice up a favorite variety of fruit that is in season for a snack or share it with your love and enjoy his or her lunar and romantic qualities. Brew up a cup of chamomile tea, enchant it with a little moon magick, and relax and get a good night’s sleep.

Most importantly, get outside tonight and watch the moon for a while. What phase is she in? What color was the moon as she rose? Why not start a journal and write down at what location the moon rises and sets for a few seasons? This is a great way to teach you to tune in and to become more aware of the moon and the influence that she pulls into our lives. Try calling on Selene for her magickal assistance, and call Thoth for wisdom and strength. Get to know the Norse Mani and the Latvian Meness. These gods of the moon have plenty to teach, and if you allow their influence to cycle through your life, you’ll receive many blessings. Be imaginative, and create your own personal lunar magick and witchery. Go on….the moonlight becomes you.

Wishing All Our Precious Family & Friends, A Very Wonderful & Blessed Monday!

As the sun dawned on man

We were there.

As the moon rose and the stars shone

We were there.

As gathers became hunters

We were there.

We praised what was seen and drew

the unknown to ourselves.

We protected the clan and sought

safety for our people.

We gave strength for the hunt and

drew prey to the hunters.

We danced under the full moon.

We praised the Goddess and Gods.

We gave aid with our skills and herbs.

We cured the ill and comforted the dying.

We assisted in the renewal of life through birth.

We were the wise women, the elders.

We led our clan.

We were the first Witches.

Various Protection Charms

Various Protection Charms

Mistletoe, also known as golden bough, carried in a little hand sewn cloth bag is a traditional Celtic method of protecting the self and is also used by the followers of the magic from America’s South.

Marjoram or wild oregano is believed to absorb dangerous negative energies when powdered and sprinkled about the home. In Italy the followers of Italian witchcraft or Stregheria make this herb into a tea and add it to the wash and scrub water to protect the home and its inhabitants.

Cuban and Puerto Rican followers of the folk religion known as Santeria regularly burn brown sugar, a pinch of sulfur and garlic powder on charcoal within their homes to cleanse them of any negative energy. When the home has been cleansed, it is protected by praying to Santa Barbara, the saint of protection, by the light of a red and a white candle.

A pinch of sulfur powder and cayenne pepper carried in a little brown paper pouch upon which a sword has been drawn, can be carried to ward off hostile words and deeds.

Plain bluing (used to whiten clothes in the wash) is said to ward off evil spirits in the magic of America’s South. The bluing is generally carried in a little blue paper pouch.

When a little sulfur and blue metal stone (the type often used in the process of making concrete) are added to bluing and carried in a blue cloth pouch, the charm is said to simultaneously ward off evil and attract lucky energies to the bearer.

Mirrors are said to frighten away dark spirits and tiny pieces of silvered glass are often sewn into Indian cotton dresses as are bells which are also used for this purpose.

A tiny silver bell worn about the neck is a very potent protective charm as evil spirits cannot abide the sweet ring of any bell. Travelers are especially in need of protection when in a foreign land. A tiny mirror smeared with a clove of garlic and placed beneath the bed is said to protect the sleeper when away from his or her own home. The mirror may also be carried on one’s person for this same purpose.
