The Wheel of Fortune represents that aspect of life that is directed by forces and events we may not understand or even be aware of. In short, The Wheel deals with chance—those occurrences that manage to alter even the most structured of lives, usurp man’s “best laid plans.” While the effects of The Wheel are unpredictable, the outcome is always change; sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse. Our path through life is never a ride down a perfectly straight highway. Sometimes we may even experience hairpin turns or complete reversals of direction. The Wheel of Fortune is strong reminder that despite our plans, the Universe has its own agenda from which we cannot escape participation.
Venus enters your work and health sector today, dear Aries, and will transit this area of your chart until November 8th (for the coming month). While Venus moves out of a harmonious position vis a vis your sign, this is a very useful cycle for bringing harmony to your daily life, including your working environment. The urge to restore balance to working relationships and order or beauty to your daily routines and environment is strong now. This can also be a time of increased social opportunities through your work or through your daily routines, or while pursuing health goals. It might be a good time for partnering up to get work done or to pursue fitness programs with Venus and Mars in this sector of your chart, and eventually aligning, as well as for meeting friends or even a lover who has similar goals or work.
Taurus
Taurus
After an extended stay in your solar fourth house, dear Taurus, Venus (your ruler) moves into harmony with your sign. The sector of home and family is a very introspective, even self-protective, sector, and this may have kept you a little more withdrawn or quiet than usual. Now and until November 8th, Venus transits your fun, playful, and creative solar fifth house. You are now more willing to take some personal risks with your heart, personality, and creativity. You can be a little flirty now, and it’s a time when your natural charm comes shining through for all to see. While today is good for personal magnetism, keep in mind that Mercury is coming to a station tomorrow, and as the shift occurs, there may be some miscommunications to deal with.
Gemini
Gemini
Venus has spent an unusual amount of time in your communications sector, dear Gemini, and today enters your home and family sector, where it will transit until November 8th. During this cycle, you are a little more protective with your heart, tending to cling to the familiar and secure rather than venturing out into the world with your heart on your sleeve. Some hesitancy and caution when it comes to love, the pursuit of pleasure, and money is normal with this cycle. This can be a good time for bringing more harmony, comfort, or beauty to your home, and more peace or loving expressions with family members. Real estate matters could be favorable now.
Cancer
Cancer
The goddess of love enters your communications sector today, dear Cancer, increasing your need and ability to share your thoughts and feelings with someone special. Venus will stay in this sector of your chart for one month, until November 8th. You’re coming out of a lengthy Venus cycle that emphasized stability and security in your social and love relationships, so this new cycle can be a real change, as you’re more sociable, curious, and chatty. During this cycle, you are especially curious about others and particularly interested in sharing your daily activities with others. You are also likely bringing more charm and diplomacy to your communications. With Mars already here in this sector, Venus’ presence helps add layers to your charm, particularly through conversations. However, keep in mind that as Mercury moves to its direct station, exact tomorrow, there can be some miscommunications to deal with before things straighten out.
Leo
Leo
Venus leaves your sign today after an extended stay, Leo, and while the next step may not seem as glamorous, it’s a natural progression and a solid one. You’ve received more than usual attention, and you’ve been pampering yourself as well with Venus in your sign. Now that the attention turns away from you and your ego needs, you’re in a better position to enjoy yourself without self-consciousness. Focus is on building your resources now. Love is more about security and comfort in the coming month. Affections stabilize during this cycle, and you begin to value simpler pleasures. Getting along well with others can be one way to boost your business or income, and relationships already in place can benefit from steadier energy. You value those who make you feel comfortable, and familiarity is more important to you than new experiences in love at this time.
Virgo
Virgo
Venus has been spending an unusually long time in the sign just behind yours, dear Virgo. This has allowed you all kinds of time and opportunities to go over your emotional and romantic past with a fine-toothed comb, to put an end to attitudes and possibly relationships that truly do belong in the past, and to nurse some old hurts before gathering the strength to move forward. This morning, Venus enters your sign and love will begin to move forward, ready or not! You become more expressive and certain of your affections, and people around you in a general sense are appreciating the very style and personality traits that you express naturally. This month-long cycle puts the focus on pleasure and affection in your life. With Mars already in your sign, Venus helps to soften your manner and bring you more positive attention. The Moon moves out of your privacy sector and into your sign this afternoon, and you can be feeling especially in need of a connection to the world around you.
Libra
Libra
Venus enters your privacy and soul sector today, dear Libra, and will continue transiting this house of your solar chart until November 8th. This cycle brings a little more mystery to your love life, feelings, and affections. It’s a time for releasing old or outdated attitudes and clearing space for new experiences and feelings to enter your life. You are not as clear when it comes to openly expressing your love, as you need time to get in better touch with your own feelings during this period of your life. There can be a greater love of private moments with a partner or secret admirers. For some of you, a need or necessity to give of yourself unselfishly emerges. You may be a little more tentative than usual about feelings and even purchases during this cycle. The Moon moving into line with Venus today emphasizes a need for some level of withdrawal or emotional renewal, and possibly a nice connection with the past.
Scorpio
Scorpio
Venus has been spending a longer than usual time in your career and reputation sector, dear Scorpio, and this has given you a chance to realign your goals and to soften or enhance your reputation, although there has been some hiccups along the way. This morning, with Venus’ movement into Aquarius and into a position that subtly enhances your natural style, likability, and powers of attraction. It’s an easier cycle for Venus overall, and Venus will continue to work her magic through to November 8th. Equality and fairness are more important themes in your relationships during this cycle. Giving yourself and others freedom and emotional space is also important, as well as downplaying ego needs. Teamwork is favored, and friendships can get a nice boost.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
Venus is just ending an extended stay in your adventure sector, Sagittarius, and you may have experienced a stronger love of learning and sharing. Now Venus enters your career and reputation sector at that the top of your solar chart. This time, her visit approaches her normal cycle length, and extends to November 8th. This is a strong period for bringing an easier manner to your professional or public dealings, particularly as you’ve experienced assertive Mars here and now you benefit from the added charm of Venus here as well. Social opportunities can emerge through your business or professional dealings, or you could be employing more diplomacy and people skills in the work you do. You also tend to be a little more concerned about your image at this time. Latent social ambitions can emerge. There can be more success in creative pursuits during this cycle.
Capricorn
Capricorn
Venus has spent an unusually long time in the sign of Leo, dear Capricorn, and your solar eighth house. Planets transiting the eighth tend to operate as if they are undercover, and you’ve been spending a fair amount of time observing, remembering, intuiting, and analyzing your feelings. However, today, Venus moves on, into your solar ninth house, and in many ways, your romantic life is likely to feel as if it’s emerging into the light. Now and until November 8th, you’re more likely to express or act upon your feelings. This position of Venus tends to highlight and enhance your naturally attractive qualities. This cycle brings a more outgoing, adventurous attitude to your love life, and this can also play out in terms of the type of entertainment and playful experiences you’re attracted to, and the art or decorations that draw you in. You have a spirited attitude now. Today, with the Moon moving out of your eighth and into the ninth house as well, you’re likely to feel more outgoing as the day moves forward.
Aquarius
Aquarius
Venus has spent an unusually long time in your partnership zone and opposing sign, dear Aquarius, and there’s been a very strong focus on relating, mediating, negotiating, and generally getting a long with others. Today, Venus enters another relationship zone, the solar eighth house, but this sector runs a little deeper. It’s a favorable time for working on the more complicated or intricate areas of relationships, sharing, and intimacy. It’s also strong for getting to understand your own deeper side as well as your innermost desires and motivations. Financially speaking, you may find backing or support, and you are more reasonable with regards to working out agreements. Your love nature runs a little deeper during this cycle that lasts until November 8th.
Pisces
Pisces
Venus had an extended stay in your work and health sector, dear Pisces, and is only now moving out of it and into your partnership sector. There has been a rather strong focus on daily affairs and routines, work, work relationships, and matters of health. You may have had some opportunities to smooth over relations with co-workers, or to find a better balance in your daily routines and habits. However, wasn’t a very glamorous area of your chart for Venus, the goddess of love, to function at her best. This morning, Venus begins a month-long cycle transiting your relationship sector, and this can go a long way towards enhancing your social life and one-to-one relationships. It’s a strong cycle for attracting and enhancing close relationships. Your manner is conciliatory, open, reasonable, and respectful of others’ needs and agendas, and these qualities are very appealing to others now.
The Balance of the Signs & the Elements for October 8th
LEO STRONG
Self-confident, generous, warm-hearted, powerful leader, dramatic. Can be overly proud, vain, extravagant, arrogant.
VIRGO STRONG
Meticulous, discriminating, pure, practical, health conscious, hard working. Can be hyper-critical, petty and perfectionistic.
LIBRA STRONG
Even-handed, harmonious, artistic, diplomatic, balancing, strong sense of fairness. Can be over- compromising, appeasing, judgmental.
BALANCE OF ELEMENTS
FIRE STRONG
Fire is enthusiastic, dynamic, and spontaneous, but lacks reflection. We are more courageous and adventurous now, with a tendency to act before thinking. There is little concern about what happened in the past. We are competitive and possibly impatient or bored easily.
WATER WEAK
There may be some insensitivity or lack of empathy now. We may be out of touch with what we’re feeling or with our emotional needs. We may be tougher than usual now, and more inclined to follow mental or practical considerations than we are to listen to our intuition.
As we wind down from some of this past month’s chaos and prepare for Mercury to go direct Friday, this is an excellent time to reflect on where you are in your life and invite a sense of humor into things. We’ve had lots of fiery energies catalyzed by the eclipses and supermoon – even the most calm and centered person might have had some wild moments in recent weeks!This latest cycle likely put you on edge a few times. Keep in mind that along with the big stuff you are encountering and addressing, it’s often the petty stuff that gets you off balance and out of your power center. Tip: make less time for petty things that won’t matter long term and save your precious light-filled energy to create big things in the highest ways.
Sometimes in cycles like this, people tend to get spacey and lose focus. If this happened for you, make an effort to come back to your center now. We have new energies to work with now and you want to be able to effectively house them within you. Getting grounded now will put you in your heart, which is where you want to be to connect more to your spiritual guidance and ability to manifest your dreams. Don’t forget to dream big!
One reason you are alive now is to reclaim your true power to create. For thousands of years, humanity has been conditioned to be powerless. Self-doubt and trying to fit in have been the norm – people looking outside themselves to validate if they were okay. Having an authentic voice, or even a voice at all, often was not part of the equation as people lived an ordinary life.
You were born to be among those at the forefront to change this – to turn things upside down! That’s because you are a divine changemaker at your core, encoded to be at the forefront of the biggest society overhaul ever done. You are to do this by changing on the inside first – getting your power and voice back – and then as you do that being an example to others.
This means that you are an instrumental part of humanity’s awakening process! A little voice inside is calling you to act on this role and discover what it means for you personally. This will be a process over time. Some of you are already immersed in that process – including with our Divine Changemakers Series with The Council of 12 – so you know how powerful that process can be! Each day you are having opportunities to be more authentic, more whole.
The Moon today is in a Waning Crescent phase. In this phase the Moon’s illumination is growing smaller each day until the New Moon. During this phase the Moon is getting closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing the Earth with only a small edge of the Moon being illuminated. This phase is best viewed an hour or 2 before the sunrise and can be quite beautiful if you’re willing to get up early. It can also be a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the edge where the illuminated portion meets the dark side, the craters and mountains cast long shadows making them easier to observe with a telescope or binoculars.

In the movie What Dreams May Come, the character played by Robin Williams dies and then wakes up in the afterlife. The place looks, smells, tastes, and feels more or less like the so-called real world. But he quickly learns that in this place, whatever he thinks or desires manifests instantly. All of it is a construct of consciousness.
Magick works in the same way. What you think is what you get. The manifestation may not be immediate— although it can be. If your belief and your intent are strong enough, if you bring passion to your spell, and if you can focus your energy clearly toward a specific goal, then you have a good chance of achieving what you want.
Knowing exactly what you want to accomplish and stating your intention with absolute clarity is essential whenever you perform a spell. Otherwise, your spell could backfire. The fact is, you’re doing magick all the time, whether or not you realize it. As noted later, the Law of Attraction states that your thoughts, emotions, and actions affect the energetic patterns around you, and the most significant “tools” in magick are your thoughts and feelings. That’s why it’s important to use your magickal power with clear intent, so you can produce the results you truly desire.
Underlying all magick is a simple principle of physics: For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Remember that old computer axiom, garbage in, garbage out? Magick is like that, too: If you put bad thoughts and feelings in, you’ll get bad stuff back and vice versa. So be care what you ask for!

Let’s Talk Witch – Ten Good Things Magick Can do for You
Before we ever get into the how, let’s consider why learning to do magick is worth your time and effort. Here are ten ways magick can help to make your life better. It can:
Improve your love life
Attract prosperity
Keep you and your loved ones safe from harm
Enhance your health
Protect your home and personal property
Open up new career opportunities
Give you more control over your life
Improve interactions with family, friends, and coworkers
Ward off problems and enemies
Strengthen your intuition and psychic skills
People who don’t understand magick have made it seem weird or evil, and Hollywood sensationalizes it to the point of absurdity. Actually, there’s nothing scary, strange, or silly about magick— it’s a natural ability you were born with, a talent you can develop just like musical or mathematical talent. All it takes is desire, a little training and practice.

Chung Yeung Day, the Festival of High Places, is China’s annual good luck festival commemorating the ancient Chinese scholar, Haun Ching. Legend has it that on the advice of a fortune-teller, Haun fled with his family and friends to the high hills, thus avoiding the plague of death that killed everyone in the village below. During this mid-Autumn celebration, the people take to the hills and fly special kites that are considered to be good omens that drive the evil spirits away.

Herb: Cinquefoil Ruled by the planet Jupiter and dedicated to Thor, god of thunder and agricultural work. His parallels in various European Traditions include Zeus, Taranis, Perun, and Perkunas.
Magical aspects: controlled optimism, energetic growth, physical well-being, material success, expansion, money/wealth, prosperity, leadership, and generosity.
Thursday is the day of Jupiter, the largest of the planets and said to be the most powerful. Spellcasters would be wise to use this day for attempting wealth, success and prosperity spells.
Thursday is also associated (in Greek mythology) to Thor – Thor’s day – and some even say that Jupiter and Thor are one in the same. Both are strong and powerful, yet wise and just. Try a small prayer to Jupiter before commencing any ritual on Thursday as a sign of respect. This is the proper day of the week to perform spells and rituals involving luck, happiness, health, legal matters, male fertility, treasure, wealth, honour, riches, clothing, money, desires, business, group pursuits, joy, laughter, and expansion
Thursday (Jupiter): Expansion, money, prosperity and generosity

Waning Moon The Waning Moon is a time for study, meditation, and little magickal work (except magick designed to banish harmful energies).
Moon phase: Fourth Quarter
Moon Sign: Leo Leo: Draws emphasis to the self, central ideas, or institutions, away from connections with others and other emotional needs. People tend to be melodramatic.
Moon enters Virgo 3: 50 pm
Virgo: Favors accomplishment of details and commands from higher up. Focuses on health, hygiene, and daily schedules.
Well, let’s see … abundance, prosperity, and good health has been our focus for this day. Now how about a little more information and ideas for working practical magick with one of our fascinating featured deities of the day?
Juno was the Queen of Heaven. As the matriarch of the gods, she guarded over women in every aspect of their lives. Juno was thought to have renewed her virginity every year. Similar to other goddess stories, Juno was a triple goddess-a virgin who belonged to no one; a mother and woman in the prime of her life, sexual and mature; and also a crone, powerful, wise, and sometimes vengeful (as she made her husband’s many mistresses’ lives either fairly unhappy or short).
There are references to an early all-female triad of goddesses known as the Capitoline Triad. This triad consisted of Juventas, Juno, and Minerva. To the Greeks, they would have been known as Hebe, Hera, and Hecate. Ultimately the triad became Juno, Minerva, and the male Jupiter. Jupiter, another of Thursday’s gods, was Juno’s consort.
As mentioned earlier, Juno, in her aspect as Juno Moneta, was the patron and protector of the Roman mint. The coins produced at her temples were blessed by Juno and imbued with her powers of abundance and prosperity. In another of her aspects as Juno Augusta, Juno was the goddess of an abundant harvest.
In addition, another of Juno’s magickal correspondences is the semiprecious stone malachite. Malachite is a beautiful green-banded stone that was also called the “peacock stone” in Italy. The peacock was a sacred animal of Juno’s, and the magickal energies of malachite encourage health and prosperity.

Today is the day for prosperity work of all kinds. It can also be used for healing work, whether that is a physical healing of an illness or an emotional healing. Also remember that you have to follow up your healing work and prosperity magick and physical action.
I can’t tell you the number of times I have met new witches who complain to me that their prosperity spell or “I need a better job” spell did not work as they expected. They’ll ramble on and on about how much time and money they spent working their magick….but, alas, they had no glorious manifestion of wealth or fabulous job that suddenly dropped out of the sky and landed in their laps.
Then, when I gently ask them, “Did you enchant your resume or application when you filled it out? Did you do a little confidence-boosting spellwork when you went to apply for the job or went to the interview?” typically they give me a blank, confused stare.
Nine times out of ten, their response is, “You mean I have to go out and actually look for the job too?” Um, yes, my dear, you certainly do. Magick follows the path of least resistance, which means it’s going to manifest along the simplest, quickest route. Get out there and hit the pavement. See what you can find. Times are tough and competition for good jobs is fierce, so you need whatever edge you can get. For folks like us, we’re going to get the edge by using our magick and our spellcraft.
Thursdays have such a rich source of magick for us to draw upon that, honestly, the sky is the limit. This is the day associated with the gods of the sky and heavens, after all. Get to know these deities and add their wisdom and magick into your days

The name is derived from Old English Þūnresdæg and Middle English Thuresday (with loss of -n-, first in northern dialects, from influence of Old Norse Þorsdagr) meaning “Thor’s Day”. Thunor, Donar (German, Donnerstag) and Thor are derived from the name of the Germanic god of thunder, Thunraz, equivalent to Jupiter in the interpretatio romana.
In most Romance languages, the day is named after the Roman god Jupiter, who was the god of sky and thunder. In Latin, the day was known as Iovis Dies, “Jupiter’s Day”. In Latin, the genitive or possessive case of Jupiter was Iovis/Jovis and thus in most Romance languages it became the word for Thursday: Italian giovedì, Spanish jueves, French jeudi, Sardinian jòvia, Catalan dijous, and Romanian joi. This is also reflected in the p-Celtic Welsh dydd Iau.
The astrological and astronomical sign of the planet Jupiter is sometimes used to represent Thursday.
Since the Roman god Jupiter was identified with Thunor (Norse Thor in northern Europe), most Germanic languages name the day after this god: Torsdag in Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish, Hósdagur/Tórsdagur in Faroese, Donnerstag in German or Donderdag in Dutch. Finnish and Northern Sami, both non-Germanic (Uralic) languages, uses the borrowing “Torstai” and “Duorastat”. In the extinct Polabian Slavic language, it was perundan, Perun being the Slavic equivalent of Thor.
There are a number of modern names imitating the naming of Thursday after an equivalent of “Jupiter” in local tradition. In most of the languages of India, the word for Thursday is Guruvar- var meaning day and guru being the style for Bṛhaspati, guru to the gods and regent of the planet Jupiter. In Thai, the word is Wan Pharuehatsabodi – referring to the Hindu deity Bṛhaspati, also associated with Jupiter. En was an old Illyrian deity and in his honor in the Albanian language Thursday is called “Enjte”. In the Nahuatl language, Thursday is Tezcatlipotōnal meaning “day of Tezcatlipoca”.
I am ever grateful to that which has given life
Too the one that started it all
Too thee I give thanks
for such beautifulness
In all of the variety
Which can be called the spice of life
Maybe not by all
Round and round
Which the wheel keeps spinning
And so it goes
It has no beginning
Nor has an Ending
Forever meeting
Round and round
We go
Spinning in a circle
In a spherical motion
Just going with the flow
There is a rainbow
And a perfect halo
With wings being optional
Ever sweet music always plays
Too charge the soul
And stir emotions of expression
Ever causing movement
Always moving completing a cycle
In many different forms
Making such bedazzling sparks
Such a pretty light show
I love the glow
And no I can never stop
Being amazed and in awe
Of such wonders
Always leaves me feeling lost in all
Caught in this space
Which is everything
Knowing nothing could ever compete
Or duplicate nor replace
And so I always have a hold
Fitting in the fold
Living in this beautiful sphere
That we call home

Venus is the planet of beauty, art and love, ruling over romance, partnerships, sex and style. Yeah, baby!
As Venus moves through each zodiac sign, the love planet takes on a slightly different erotic personality. For example, in Aries love gets bold, while in Cancer it gets cozy.
And if you know what zodiac sign Venus is in currently (it moves from one zodiac sign to the next in about one month), it can help you deal with matters of the heart more successfully.
Here’s a quick glance at the style of love and flirting Venus has in every zodiac sign:
Venus in Aries is all fire! Expect passion, enthusiasm and some rough handling!
Venus in Taurus is sensuous and affectionate. You like to feel secure in love, so take your time and build up your passion slow, steady and strong.
Venus in Gemini is talkative and curious. Make mental connections with your partner to turn them on.
Venus in Cancer is nurturing and attentive. You love to please your partner, and are super sentimental.
Venus in Leo is creative and affectionate. When in love, you radiate joy toward your partner and the surrounding world!
Venus in Virgo is practical, and very focused on your partner’s needs. You strive for perfection in relationships.
Venus in Libra is energetic and partnership oriented. Your relationships are harmonious, and sex is an art performed with style.
Venus in Scorpio is sizzling and intense. Your passion is powerful, but you can be possessive and controlling in love.
Venus in Sagittarius is feisty! You’re friendly and flirtatious, and love is an adventure you’re eager to explore
Venus in Capricorn is cool on the outside, but hot to trot inside. You take your time with matters of the heart, but you’re as dedicated to your lover as you are to your work.
Venus in Aquarius is a quirky lover who is turned on by intellectual matters. You can be cool and detached, but open minded and experimental in bed.
Venus in Pisces is built for intimacy, and you’re willing to please your partner in every way. You’re a creative and dreamy lover, expressing your feelings in word and song.
Love will take a practical turn when amorous Venus moves into earthy Virgo on October 8, 2015. Romance won’t be as fiery and playful as it is with Venus in Leo, but this transit does give us an opportunity to work harder on our partnerships.
Venus, of course, is the planet of love and relationships. And Virgo is the analytical sign that focuses on life’s more practical matters. So while Venus is in Virgo, it’s a solid time to work on the nuts and bolts of our partnerships — and to have those deep “how can we compromise better” or “where is this going” talks that many of us find difficult.
All this critical relationship analysis doesn’t sound very sexy, but Venus in Virgo can in fact be passionate. That’s because Virgo is an Earth sign, which is all about appreciating food, art, nature and people. In fact, we appreciate the best of those things with Venus in Virgo, and that includes sex. So just don’t expect any “quickies” right now.
The negative side to Venus in Virgo is that nitpicking our partners is possible, because we find it harder to let the small things go. But if you can try to keep the excess criticism under control and think positive about any constructive criticism coming in, then you can simply use this time to make adjustments with your partner, and it can change your relationship for the better moving forward.
