You may have noticed an increased momentum or influx of new energy since Wesak with the Masters. Indeed, you are not imagining this – the tide is shifting and abundant Wesak Season blessings are in the air! In this article, I’ll outline a few things to look for and some suggestions of how to tap into and continue the flow of blessings in your life. Foresight can help you make the most of June and its high-energy days.

Wesak Blessings

As a reminder, Wesak Season celebrates the Masters who achieved enlightenment and today on the inner planes assist humanity with ascension. These beings are always present and available, of course, yet for several weeks each year, Masters like Buddha and Jesus and Kuan Yin provide an expanded level of assistance to people across the world. This help is available even to those who never heard of Wesak. For others with conscious awareness of Wesak and personal experiences with Wesak meditations, spiritual infusions can be vast and life-changing.

June 20 Full Moon Solstice

These beneficial energies have been present throughout May, the month of Wesak celebrations worldwide. There is an accumulation effect now in place, spiritual support being amplified in June as we head into Post Wesak celebrations the weekend before the June 20 Cancer Solstice at the Full Moon.

Those three days have potential to lift the lid off the bottle of illusory limitations.

Identifying Blessings

To receive the most from this influx of spiritual assistance, it’s helpful to remember that blessings come in countless forms and often when you least expect. Examples: (1) you had a falling out with someone weeks or even years ago and you prayed for a healing – after a Wesak meditation or some other time during May or June your friend calls you to reconnect (2) a goal you set long ago has sat motionless and without life – during Wesak Season you receive new inspiration that gets things moving (3) during a Wesak meditation you encounter a Master who then becomes a key guide and catalyst for your next big leap – opening doors you never saw before and helping you to see yourself through the eyes of the divine.

Blessings sometimes come in the form of things your Higher Self wants you to complete or address a final time. If one of these blessings comes into your life during this cycle, welcome it as the gift it is.

Time and energy now are being experienced in warp acceleration mode. This means when you face an issue head on with determination, the healing can unfold like a lightning bolt – bringing things to the surface for illumination and your feeling supported with the inner work to reach culmination.

If you suspect your issue has deep roots, tune into your heart to look at options for clearing at a DNA level. The deepest issues arising within humanity in these unique times are those originating in the DNA on either an ancestral level or a person’s own past lives. You must go to the root of things to have completion – and this certainly is the lifetime to do just that.

New Moon Watch – June 4-5

Cosmic energies the first week of June can help you set the stage for huge openings, new project initiations, and clearings of some very old stuff. We have a Gemini New Moon June 4-5 – a time of significant transformation and potentials to own your own power and use it for good.

There are a lot of mixed energies and unsettling global trends continuing in June. Knowing that can help you stay in your center and go to your inner resources for clarity and a sense of peace.

On the world stage this past week we had the World Humanitarian Summit in Istanbul and a Group of Seven Summit in Japan. Regular themes of such meetings include climate, planetary resources, income inequality, and ideology-based wars.

Do what you can daily to focus on and embody love and tolerance – it is up to us as divine changemakers to set the template for the new world we want to inhabit.

Focus on the Good – the Blessings

Experience a more joyful and productive June by focusing on the good and the blessings available. Put yourself in situations where you can interact with people focused on creating a more loving world.

Mercury Retrograde was complete during Wesak weekend, helping with some green lights to move ahead. This can impact things like communications, technology, travel, and contracts. Forward movement gets another boost June 29 when the fiery action planet Mars goes direct.

Use this cycle to energize things with intentions and foundational action steps. If you sense in meditation that you may be blocking your own progress – more common than you might realize – use the time in June to get to the bottom of things. Go gently with yourself – progress comes more quickly when you apply self-love and allow space while the universe orchestrates the next amazing experiences of your life journey!

To Charm

To the four corners, I now call
Those I encounter, I will enthrall
Hear my words as I beckon thee
Enchanting and beguiling, you shall make me.

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.

*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

If a full moon falls on a Monday, its powers are at their most potent. Magical aspects: peace, sleep, healing, compassion, friendships, psychic awareness, purification, and fertility

Monday is ruled by the moon – an ancient symbol of mystery and peace. Monday is a special day for mothers as the cycle of the moon has long been associated with the female menstrual cycle. Those wishing to conceive a baby would be wise to try on a Monday as the magic of motherhood is strong and pregnancy is in the air.

Aspects of the Moon in Cancer

The Moon is the astrological metaphor which symbolizes an individual’s inner, feeling-based personality. The Moon travels through the entire Zodiac every month, changing signs roughly every two and a half days.

The Zodiac sign the Moon occupies as it travels through the sky will help set the “emotional tone” for the day. The aspects it forms … the angles it makes to other planets in the sky as it moves … show periods of cooperation and conflict between various needs and personal agendas — and will be reflected in the moods and general climate of concerns in real life.

Cancer is a Water Sign. Water Signs represent emotional, instinctive, and subconscious energy that is nurturing, healing, and transformative. They are feeling, sensitive, intuitive, responsive, protective, and passionate.

When there is Water Sign energy in the sky, or when a person has Water Sign energy in his Natal Chart, these qualities and attitudes will be on display somehow. The Water Signs of the Zodiac are Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces.

Cancer is also a Cardinal Sign. The Cardinal Signs of the Zodiac are Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn. The Cardinal signs are direct, decisive, ambitious, opportunistic, and motivated. The one thing you cannot fault them for is their talent for making things happen!! When they’re inspired or uncomfortable … they work to somehow initiate change in their circumstances. When there is Cardinal Sign energy in the sky, these attitudes and qualities will also be prominent in the events and experiences people meet.

Attributes: Sensitive, emotional, practical, organized, routine

Herbs: Poppy, willow, lemon balm, mugwort, orris

Magical Days Of the Week – Monday

Monday is the day of the moon itself, and it’s a day that’s connected to lunar colors like silver, white, or even a pale blue. Metals and gemstones like silver, pearl, opal and moonstone all come into play today.

There are plenty of deities associated with the moon – Thoth and Diana for instance – and herbal correspondences include many members of the mint family. Utilize wintergreen or peppermint, as well as catnip, comfrey, sage and chamomile in your workings.

When it comes to Monday magic, because of that lunar connection, it’s a good time to focus on workings related to childbearing and family life, purity and virginity, healing, wisdom, and intuition. Do a little bit of self exploration and work on developing your intuition – learn to trust your gut. Celebrate birth and life, and make some magic to fix what is broken.

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.

Monday

In the word Monday, we can see part of the word Moon. In the romance languages such as Italian or Spanish, this day of the week is called Lunes and clearly relates to the word lunar. On Mondays, a variety of magick may be worked. Because Monday centers on the energies of the Moon, things like dreams, feminine energy, health, success in spiritual pursuits, domestic matters, and things of family origin are especially important this day.

Mondays are best for love magick and anything concerning home or family, thus old saying, Mondays child is fair of face, which seems clearly to relate to the themes of love and health.

Angels of Monday are Gabriel, Arcan, Missabu, and Abuzaha. Arcan is known as the king of the angels of air and the “ruler” of Monday. Abuzaha (Abuzohar) serves Monday, and is very responsive to invocations and ritual magick. Missabu is a ministering angel of Arcan.

Check whether the moon is waning or waxing to determine what your spell will be. During waning moons, do spells to rid yourself of obstacles or for wisdom and protection. During waxing moons do magic for increase of any kind or to draw something into your life.

On Mondays, the best hour to work is moonrise. Get this information from your local newspaper, astrological calendar, or almanac.

The Sky This Week for June 6 to June 12

Saturn hits peak brightness, and Uranus makes a cameo in the sky.
By Richard Talcott

Monday, June 6

• Mars remains near its peak all this week. The Red Planet reached opposition on May 22 and made its closest approach to Earth (at a distance of 46.8 million miles [75.3 million kilometers]) on the 30th. Mars appears low in the southeast as darkness falls and grows more prominent as the evening wears on and it climbs higher. By 11:30 p.m. local daylight time, it stands one-third of the way to the zenith in the southern sky against the backdrop of southeastern Libra. The world shines at magnitude –1.9, just a hair dimmer than the brightest point of light in the sky, Jupiter. When viewed through a telescope, Mars’ orange-red disk spans 18.5″. Look for subtle dark markings along with a whitish north polar cap.

• Venus passes behind the Sun from our perspective, a configuration astronomers call superior conjunction, at 6 p.m. EDT. (Our star actually occults the planet, an event that last occurred eight years ago.) Needless to say, the Sun’s glare makes it impossible to see Venus. The planet will return to view after sunset in late July.

Tuesday, June 7

• Observers of the outer solar system get their first good views of Uranus before dawn during June. The best time to look for it is shortly before twilight begins around 4 a.m. local daylight time. Uranus then lies low in the east among the background stars of Pisces the Fish. This morning, use binoculars to find the magnitude 5.9 planet 5° west of magnitude 4.3 Omicron (o) Piscium. A telescope reveals Uranus’ blue-green disk, which spans 3.4″.

Wednesday, June 8

• Brilliant Jupiter appears high in the southwest as darkness falls and remains on display until after 1 a.m. local daylight time. The giant planet shines at magnitude –2.0 — 0.1 magnitude brighter than Mars blazing in the southeast — against the backdrop of southern Leo the Lion. Jupiter appears equally dazzling through a telescope, which reveals a wealth of atmospheric detail on a disk that spans 36″. If you look carefully, you should notice its moon Callisto crossing the planet’s north polar regions. The transit begins at 11:02 p.m. EDT. About 90 minutes later, the satellite appears halfway across Jupiter’s disk.

Thursday, June 9

• The bright planets Mars and Saturn join with the 1st-magnitude star Antares to create a dramatic triangle in the southern sky these June evenings. A red supergiant star whose color mimics that of Mars, Antares is the luminary of the constellation Scorpius the Scorpion. Aim your binoculars a degree west (to the right) of the star and you’ll find the globular cluster M4. This object contains more than 100,000 stars and looks like a faint ball of cotton. A telescope shows dozens of stars scattered across the cluster’s face. To learn more about this constellation’s best telescopic objects, see “Target gems of Scorpius” in the June issue of Astronomy.

Friday, June 10

• Look high in the northwest after darkness falls this month, and you will see the familiar shape of the Big Dipper. The Dipper is the most conspicuous asterism — a recognizable pattern of stars that doesn’t embody a complete constellation shape — in the entire sky. It forms the body and tail of Ursa Major the Great Bear. Use the Pointers, the two stars at the end of the Dipper’s bowl, to find Polaris, which lies due north for everyone north of the equator. Polaris marks the end of the Little Dipper’s handle. On June evenings, the relatively faint stars of this dipper arc directly above Polaris.

Saturday, June 11

• A half-lit Moon hangs about 4° to Jupiter’s left in this evening’s sky. The pair becomes visible within a half-hour after sunset (though the Moon shows up in the daytime sky during the afternoon) and remains on view until 1 a.m. local daylight time. The Moon officially hits First Quarter phase at 4:10 a.m. EDT tomorrow morning.

Sunday, June 12

• For people who live near 35° north latitude, today marks the earliest sunrise of the year. Although the Northern Hemisphere’s longest day doesn’t occur until Earth’s summer solstice on June 20, earliest sunrise happens several days before and latest sunset several days after. The specific dates depend on your latitude, however. In general, earliest sunrise occurs closer to the solstice the farther north you live.
