Hawk flies into your reading today to bring you an important message. It may come in the mail, e-mail, a casual remark at the grocery store, a randomly selected page in a book, or even a phrase heard on the radio. Be alert, as hawk messages can sometimes be delivered in a subtle fashion.
Past Influence whose impact on your life is waning.
The Believer
The Believer represents Faith and the realization that you have an important place in the workings of the Universe. Although The Believer may not always understand why things are the way they are, they none-the-less feel an underlying cosmic rhythm which is moving events in a direction that is good. The Believer rejoices in their celestial role, because they realize their life has purpose on a grand scale.
Present Influence whose impact on your life is very strong.
Alturism
Altruism denotes the noble act of giving to those in need without the expectation of a return. The act of giving has been seen as one of humankind’s greatest attributes throughout history. It is honored in nearly every culture. To give is a gift to both those who receive and those who give. Giving is usually associated with addressing the material needs of others, but the gift given can take many forms such as wisdom or protection or simply a shoulder to cry on.
Future influence whose impact on your life is growing and will be very strong in the future.
Solitude
Solitude is represented by a single person standing at the end of a boardwalk staring out at a vast, empty panorama. They are truly alone, but may not feel loneliness. They are at a place in their life where the need to withdraw from the our secular world is strong, because their focus should be on their inner self, their morality, and their dreams. The view before them is empty, but it is a canvas on which they may paint their future–a future restricted only by the size of their imagination and courage. For them Solitude is a choice. They chose to take the walkway that distances them from the rest of us. It is also a choice that can be undone. Just as they chose to take a path that leads them away from us, they may choose to turn around and come back at anytime.

The Golden Egg denotes the opportunity for substantial material gains. However, the Golden Egg is also a reminder that managed greed ensures what gains are made will be lost.
As a daily card, The Golden Egg suggest that the prospects for you to increase your financial wealth are very strong today. Seize whatever opportunities come your way, but don’t ride them too long or you may find yourself no better off than you were before they came along.
The Star
Meaning: In many cultures, the Star is a symbol of hope, dreams and destiny, and in the Witches Runes this symbol has a similar connotation. When the Star rune appears, it’s green light for you to go after what you want.
Note that the Star does not say you’ll get everything you want without any work. No. This symbol is a not about easy success, but about having faith in what you are doing – and doing it. In fact, the goals suggested by the Star are usually the highest and most significant ones – the ones that are hardest to get. It does not matter what the dream is, but its significance in your life. This symbol also represents ideals, and they can be both individual and collective ones.
In a more down-to-earth way, the Star is related to revolutions, changes, risks, speculation and all things motivated by faith and ideals. It can represent a sudden spark on inspiration, a windfall, a sudden rise to fame or a promotion. Though the sudden changes brought by the Star are usually positive, they are also fast: you can get back to point zero as quickly as you rose. So don’t be afraid to jump forward when the opportunity arises.
The Star urges you to take the risk, to have hope and to trust. After the staleness of Crossroads, the Universe finally begins to move again. If you believe in Higher Powers, this symbol shows that They are guiding you in this moment. The Star is a very positive rune, but in a more negative context it can represent revolution for revolution’s sake and the constant idealization of people and situations. It can also stand for excessive individualism when going after a dream.
In relationship readings, this rune represents hope and an idealistic kind of love. Usually the people involved in the relationship have high expectations about the other. They easily put their partner on a pedestal, only to feel frustrated when reality strikes. The Star can also represent unrequited love, or the love for someone who is unattainable. On the other hand, this rune tells you to not give up love entirely – keep looking, because someone is coming.

Like The Sun, The Universe brings good blessings. The Universe appears where all is in balance. It allows you to act effectively not only as an individual but as a member of a group too. The Universe promises contentment, fulfillment and completeness to those under its influence. It doesn’t guarantee there will not be moments of strife or discord in your life, but it does indicate that your trials and tribulations will be overcome; that ultimately you will know inner-peace and contentment. The Universe suggests you have found or will find your place in the scheme of things—that place where all is as it should be.
Personal resolution points to a breakthrough, but decisive action is required. As long as you diligently hold your ground and ward off negative tendencies and influences, the good will prevail.
The persistence of negativity, which is that which opposes the good, is a constant in human affairs. Just when it is thought to have been eradicated, up it will pop again, sprouting through some crack in the pavement of civilized society. Evil need not take dramatic or extravagant forms, such as those exhibited in Nazi Germany. Garden-variety lies and deceit are much more common and persistent, but should be rooted out just as diligently. One must be determined to not accidentally feed negativity — either in one’s social or professional life, or in one’s own soul. In either case, definite rules must be followed for the struggle to succeed.
The first rule: do not compromise with evil. Destructive or exploitive actions must be identified openly for what they are, and discredited. The second: one cannot successfully resist negativity on its own terms. New, positive alternatives that lead away from the source of the problem are generally more successful, and appropriate than trying to counter negativity with raw power. The third rule: the means used to counter negativity must be consistent with the end to be achieved. One cannot stop the spreading of lies by spreading more of them.

Kenaz foretells the coming of clarity and knowledge. It is time for you to grow by exchanging knowledge with others. Opportunities are upon you.

Your Rune For Today
Thurisaz
Thurisaz embodies the polarity of life and death and the struggle to keep them in balance. Expect conflict, hardship and obstacles, but be assured that remaining focused and in touch with your inner strengths will see you through whatever comes your way. This Rune may also represent protection from your enemies, which is never a bad thing.

What has traditionally been known as the Devil card expresses the realm of the Taboo, the culturally rejected wildness and undigested shadow side that each of us carries in our subconscious. This shadow is actually at the core of our being, which we cannot get rid of and will never succeed in taming. From its earliest versions, which portrayed a vampire-demon, this card evoked the Church-fueled fear that a person could “lose their soul” to wild and passionate forces.
The image which emerged in the mid-1700’s gives us a more sophisticated rendition — that of the “scapegoated Goddess,” whose esoteric name is Baphomet. Volcanic reserves of passion and primal desire empower her efforts to overcome the pressure of stereotyped roles and experience true freedom of soul. Tavaglione’s highly evolved image (Stella deck) portrays the magical formula for harnessing and transmuting primal and obsessive emotions into transformative energies. As a part of the Gnostic message of Tarot, this fearsome passion and power must be reintegrated into the personality, to fuel the soul’s passage from mortal to immortal.

General Horoscope
We might have a run-in with reality today when someone says something we can’t ignore. A fateful Mercury-Saturn alignment is not a game-changer, but rather a minor annoyance that takes us on a detour from our scheduled plans. In fact, we may grow nervous about things that don’t usually bother us while the Moon travels through high-strung Aquarius. We’re more detached from our desires now and intellectualizing our needs is easier than feeling them.
Aries Horoscope Mar 21 – Apr 19
A recent event may have unexpectedly triggered emotions that influence what you expect from your friends. However, something is brewing today that isn’t obvious, and in the typical style of the Ram you just charge headlong into the situation without even stopping to think. Luckily, a sudden change of plans could lead to a win-win outcome if you can place the greater good of the community ahead of your own personal needs. Your quickest path to success is found by making others happy now.
Taurus Horoscope Apr 20 – May 20
You might be entangled in a complicated situation at work and speaking the truth won’t make your life any easier today. Even if you can rationalize your desires with the best of intentions, you may still feel more comfortable if you temporarily suppress your emotions and follow a more practical course of action now. Sometimes direct confrontation is effective; other times, it’s best to let sleeping dogs lie. Fly beneath the radar as long as it’s feasible; better safe than sorry.
Gemini Horoscope May 21 – Jun 20
Your dreams have a chance to become real today, so don’t squander this surprising opportunity by fixating on unattainable goals. The Aquarius Moon’s presence in your 9th House of Adventure may give you an irrepressible case of restlessness. Fortunately, you could effectively use this cosmic energy to plan a quick getaway or a fabulous trip to a distant place. Pack your bags and pick a destination because you might just find yourself on the road for business or pleasure before you know it.
Cancer Horoscope Jun 21 – Jul 22
You like the idea of being amongst your peers today, even if you actually prefer to be alone. Ironically, your paradoxical thinking could quickly grow annoying to everyone else. On one hand, you want to sink into your feelings and wallow around in the recesses of your imagination. But you also want to enjoy the camaraderie of your friends and benefit from their wisdom. Don’t try to resolve this inner contradiction now. Your current detachment will reward you with the inner clarity that you seek. Save your social networking until you’re in the mood.
Leo Horoscope Jul 23 – Aug 22
The conflict between your desire to get ahead professionally and your attachment to a personal relationship creates a minor dilemma today. You may find yourself in a tense situation where contradictory demands are being placed on you, but an emotional response might be inappropriate. Instead of making a scene, keep a tight lid on your feelings until you are alone. Maintaining a stable and steady outward appearance now cultivates peace and puts you on the path to resolution.
Virgo Horoscope Aug 23 – Sep 22
You’re naturally quite adept at sorting through all the information and determining the most efficient route to get the job done. However, organizing your thoughts is more challenging now, especially since your perspective is distorted by your obsession with the details. At first, you believe you know the solution and act accordingly; but then you may wonder if you moved too soon. Don’t declare your final answer just yet; instead, relax and allow the process to work out on its own.
Libra Horoscope Sep 23 – Oct 22
The energetic imbalance between your current experience and what you previously thought to be true is making you second guess everything you believed. However intense this stress feels today, rest assured that it’s a temporary condition. Your head and your heart are at odds with each other now as you perceive a reality that’s vastly different from your ideal scenario. Simply acknowledging that there are many ways to view your world multiplies your options. Open your mind; the path to your future will appear when you least expect it.
Scorpio Horoscope Oct 23 – Nov 21
Undeniable opportunities relentlessly lure you forward, but following your calling can cause undue stress on your personal life. Several planets place energetic emphasis on resourceful Venus and bountiful Jupiter as they wander through your 11th House of Long-Term Goals. However, maintaining domestic stability is just as important when it comes to your happiness. Don’t run off to pursue altruistic ambitions until you know that your feet are on the ground and your priorities are in order. Reconnecting with those closest to you gives you the wind beneath your wings.
Sagittarius Horoscope Nov 22 – Dec 21
You are a straight shooter when sharing information, but your penchant for blunt honesty has unexpected consequences. You may have recently upset a coworker by expressing what was on your mind and now you have to clean up the mess that you inadvertently created. The problem is that you meant exactly what you said and you’re irritated that you have to apologize today. Take the high road for the sake of the team and consider this as a lesson learned. Stating the truth is still the best policy but don’t forget to be considerate of other people’s feelings along the way.
Capricorn Horoscope Dec 22 – Jan 19
It’s a good idea to slow down now to avoid a snag in your plans if you’re working on a creative project. Luckily, you can see the potential trouble before it rears its ugly head and adopting a more deliberate approach gives you additional time to solve the problem in advance. But don’t give up on your vision when your clarity is so sharp; just regroup and acclimate to the new dynamics before pushing forward. Keeping your current inspiration alive is the key to your soul’s satisfaction.
Aquarius Horoscope Jan 20 – Feb 18
Although your ingenuity is in full bloom now, you can become overly fixated on executing your plan exactly as you see it in your mind’s eye. Unfortunately, you may be tempted to dig in your heels today, even when the current circumstances are begging for an entirely new strategy. Ironically, greater flexibility in your thinking ultimately strengthens your position rather than weakening it. Being willing to modify your agenda doesn’t necessarily mean changing your goals. Let your cool logic save you from yourself.
Pisces Horoscope Feb 19 – Mar 20
It appears that you can effectively communicate your needs today, but there is a churning turmoil within your heart that no one knows anything about. You may experience conflicting desires now, and are clueless on how to express them diplomatically. Honestly, you could benefit from a bit of solitude so you have the time to quietly sit with your own thoughts. You can turn your ideas into the right words once you get in touch with your feelings. Journey within before reaching out.

Aries

This is a strong day for sharing ideas and thoughts – possibly decisions as well – with someone special, dear Aries. It’s a good time to clear the air or simply catch up. You are seeing both sides of a situation, and there is generally an air of fair play and reasonableness around you today. You can be feeling especially generous now and in the next few days. Attracting love or admirers is very likely this week, and for many of you, this can involve the work that you do.
Taurus

This is a good time to work through any differences you may have had on the job or with people with whom you share daily activities, dear Taurus. This is also a fine time for coming to fair agreements and cooperation. Your spirit is generous now and this week as Venus, your ruler, aligns with Jupiter both by a parallel and later a conjunction. This brings out your desire to be the best you can be, and stimulates a sense that you have the freedom to do more. For some, this can bring out a tendency to indulge or gamble, which probably should be tamed. Otherwise, this is a time for feeling some form of relief from stress and good humor.
Gemini

There is a general spirit of cooperation around you today, dear Gemini, even if some tension is generated this afternoon surrounding power dynamics or a miscommunication. You may be in the position of mediator now. Interactions are mutually beneficial and supportive today. It’s easy to connect with people who share similar interests or ideas, and if you need to repair a relationship, this is a good time to do so through the power of conversation and reason. Seeing both sides to the story is at the heart of this.
Cancer

While there could be tension in a partnership today, dear Cancer, it’s generally of the positive variety. What’s stirred up now can lead to positive change. There is good energy for communications in general today, and particularly with or about family. Today and this week, you can enjoy healthier or at least kinder communications with others, making it a great time to reach out and make that connection that you may have been considering. It’s also a generally good week for presenting your ideas, taking tests, and doing interviews. You are coming across as quite approachable and friendly.
Leo

There can be much going on in your daily life now, dear Leo, and your expertise or know-how could be in demand right now. You could be involved in negotiating or mediating, or leading and guiding others on a particular subject. Someone may be having a wonderful influence on your personal awareness, and you might also be helping others to discover important things about yourself. Today and the next several days are particularly strong for making beneficial connections. More trust and faith could develop through the conversations you have now.
Virgo

This is a strong time for discussing finances or business plans with someone you trust or an adviser, dear Virgo. There is good energy for working through troubled areas with strong powers of reason and a sense that you can get a handle on things. It seems a little better if you put your head together with someone. While there can be some tension today regarding overdoing in certain areas, you’re in a great position to make good judgment calls. Venus in your sign is forming empowering connections with other planets today and this coming week, and this is a good sign that others are on your side, or that reaching out has its rewards.
Libra

You are especially clear and articulate today and in the next few days as well, dear Libra. You might excel at any activity that involves communicating, selling, teaching, guiding, and negotiating. You could be the voice of reason today, although this afternoon can stimulate any tension that may have been brewing on the home front. Fortunately, this is generally a feel-good time when you feel you can accomplish more of what you want to do, and rise above some of the concerns that have recently bogged you down. Meeting someone from your past is quite possible now with Venus quite active this week in your solar twelfth house, a house of karma and ruling over matters of the past and loose ends in general.
Scorpio

This is a good day for thinking through matters from the past that have been weighing heavily on your mind or heart, dear Scorpio, and reaching a reasonable conclusion. You could also be sorting out or tying up loose ends, putting finishing touches on a project, or sharing something private with someone you trust who might help you make sense of it. There is a nice sense today and this week that you have the opportunity or incentive to accomplish things you never thought possible. Connecting with friends is a stronger desire than it has been, and you may very well make a mutually beneficial connection now. Matters of the heart are pleasant and surprising.
Sagittarius

Your capacity for achievement is great, dear Sagittarius, and you could find that circumstances seem to be lining up in such a way that you’re able to perform at your peak. There is a strong drive to fill your potential these days, and a real sense that you have that opportunity. This is a good day for healing mind and body, and it’s also strong for examining your goals and ideas and deciding which ones are most attainable or reasonable. There can be a fortunate encounter made now, or a conversation with a friend that is somehow empowering.
Capricorn

You could be turned to for advice or as an expert on a subject today, dear Capricorn, and you are communicating with both fairness and an air of authority. It’s a generally good time to present an idea or to feel respected. There could be the need to partner up in order to meet or pursue a goal, and while you are often a rather solitary and independent person when it comes to your work, there can be fortunate connections made now. Now and this week, you can be feeling strongly optimistic. It’s a pleasant and opportunity-filled time for learning, publishing, expanding a project, or turning around an area of your life that needs some special attention. Be positive and willing to extend yourself. You could be feeling some sort of calling towards a particular subject now.
Aquarius

This can be a wonderful day, and in some respects week ahead, in which to feel more empowered and positive about the future, dear Aquarius. You might discover how to control a part of yourself that previously controlled you, and this can boost your confidence. Work matters can improve or move to a new level, and this takes a load off. You could feel more in charge of your life now. This is a good day for sharing personal philosophies, ideas, or pearls of wisdom. You could connect with someone who shares an interest or with whom you feel comfortable about communicating your pet interests and ideas.
Pisces

Today and in the coming days, connections with others can be especially helpful, dear Pisces. Partnerships and close relationships can be surprising, pleasant, and prosperous. This is not a time when you are inclined to want to go it alone, and in fact, others’ input can be very helpful. It’s a good day for reasonable and satisfying discussions about topics that typically are a little sensitive or avoided. Opening up to others somehow invites more opportunities into your life. There is more generosity and a spirit of goodwill in your interactions now that can be especially pleasing, although some friendships can be a little touchy this afternoon.

We are not very goal-oriented right now, or motivation to pursue our goals may be waning/lacking. Changes feel overwhelming. Enthusiasm may be low, we argue less, and we think more than we take action.
EARTH STRONG
We are especially in touch with the physical world. We consider what we’ve learned and experienced in the past in order to make the most of the present. We can be cautious, practical, and possibly unimaginative. We are deliberate and can pace ourselves well. We need hands-on experience and are not impressed with theory as much as we are with results. Routines are tolerable and comforting.
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.
BALANCE OF MODES
CARDINAL STRONG
We are ready to take action and to take on challenges, and can become frustrated with stagnant conditions.
FIXED WEAK
We may be open to change but may not have much follow-through.

The First Quarter phase is a one day event and in the following days enters a Waxing Gibbous phase becoming more illuminated each day until the Full Moon.

So be it! Blessed be!
As you drift to sleep, repeat to yourself:
I dream of my future tonight, and
Remember my dreams when I awaken.
In the morning, write everything you remember from your dreams in your journal. Return the leaves to the Earth.
