Today’s Witches Rune

Man

Meaning: The Man rune demands action. It’s not longer time to quietly sit and think, or to hide yourself and heal. No, it’s time to get up and fight for what you want. If things are slow or stagnated, change them. Begin something new. It’s not a moment to let things flow as they will, but to grab the reigns and gain control over the situation. Be the leader and defend your stand.

While the Woman rune is about healing, this one can be about defending yourself, and, sometimes, hurting or getting hurt in the process. You may have to defend your opinions, your actions or choices against some aggressive people. This rune offers you a challenge, but is also shows that you have the resources needed to face it. Naturally, this rune has very aggressive potentials in it, and they need a good deal of discipline in order to not become sorely destructive.

The Man rune also accelerates everything… nothing stays still when its around. The outcome of your question may happen sooner than you expected, but the result will probably be unexpected. It does not mean that all will go wrong, no – things will simply develop in unseen ways.

In relationship readings, the Man rune promises a period of instability, so it’s important to not have high expectations. Under the influence of this rune, the relationship can be a stairway to Heaven or a ticket to Hell… and sometimes both, in a short period of time. It promises a bumpy journey for the heart, but with a great level of intensity. The Man rune can stand for love/hate relationship, cat and rat games and obsessions… the kind of things that turns one nuts (for good and for bad). This rune is good in questions concerning sexuality.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, May 30th

by Rick Levine

Part of the Daily Insight Group

If Today is Your Birthday: May 29

You are an “idea person” with a sharp mind and a gift for gab. You are exceptionally passionate and quite idealistic about love, which can lead to ups and downs in your love life. You exude strength of character, although sometimes your harder outer “shell” can hide a person with many soft corners inside.

Famous people born today: John F. Kennedy, Bob Hope, La Toya Jackson, Melissa Etheridge, Annette Bening.

Your Birthday Year Forecast:

With the Sun and Moon in harmony in your Solar Return chart, the year ahead should be satisfying and balanced overall. You are in comfortable demand and personally popular, and you are able to achieve a decent balance between work and play; personal and professional life. For the most part, you are on top of your game this year, and positive connections with others can be made fairly easily. With the ability to handle your emotions successfully, there is less stress on both your mind and body. Your self-confidence and positive attitude will reward you!

Neptune transits square to your Sun this year until January, and there will be times when you combat low energy and motivation levels. It’s important to be selective when it comes to projects or answering demands.  A noncommittal attitude in your personal life could leave people in your life feeling frustrated with you as you attempt to find yourself. Your self-image is being re-worked, and you are becoming more sensitive to a greater, perhaps more spiritual, sense of purpose. After January, this influence passes and you’re likely to enjoy more clarity and a stronger sense of purpose. In December, Saturn transits in opposition to your Sun. Saturn calls upon you to identify the weaker areas of your life, and to fix or strengthen them. Take the time to sort out your life, improve your work, and to become more efficient. Taking a slow and steady approach to life is necessary now. Pushing too hard will likely lead to frustration and setbacks. Take it easy and work on self-improvement. Results are not immediate, but will eventually come and bring healthy rewards.

You are likely to establish connections and/or relationships with people that help forward your own personal growth this year. There can be meaningful connections made in the period ahead. You feel your life has definite purpose, and through your contacts with others, you are encouraged to grow.

You may be actively involved with teamwork and collaboration with others this year. Your passions are stirred and others may be instrumental in building your confidence and going after what you want. For some, the beginning of a significant new relationship, or the intensification of an existing romance, can occur.

This is a good year in which to take steps towards making yourself feel more secure and safe, and for family or domestic activities. This is also a time when you more readily support or defend others.

Love and social relationships can be up and down. On one hand, you may grow and develop a bond, but another relationship could be disruptive and dramatic. Unusual attractions (to people and things) can have you acting on a whim. You may deal with freedom versus closeness issues in your relationships, or unpredictable energy may play out on other levels related to socializing, spending, and pleasure. For example, vacation plans may go awry or agreements could be broken. Impulsive spending is something to watch for. Even so, something big is in the works regarding your love life. You’ll have a chance to heal old wounds with regards to love. You’re also bound to find new ways of making money.

You may be involved in frequent lectures, debates, and discussions during the year. You can convey your ideas more powerfully. You are quick to take the initiative and to put your thoughts into action. Adventuresome travel may be part of the picture. You may be more actively involved with young people. Even so, with Mercury in challenging aspect to Neptune in your Solar Return, some difficulties with communications are possible. There can be misunderstandings, misinformation, wishful thinking, confusion, carelessness, and deception. Verify the facts before making decisions and avoid taking precipitate action. Read all the fine print before signing a contract or making an agreement.

Energy levels can be up and down this year, as you often need to feel inspired in order to feel motivated and take action. Take an objective look also at how your dreams and visions fit into the lives of others and the world in general. Watch for impracticality. Take advantage of the “high” periods in order to offset the possible loss in productivity during the low-energy stages. This could also be a year in which you are considerably more creative.

In partnerships and close relationships, you may be working together on a big project or doing a lot more together. Otherwise, excess energy could lead to some restlessness and disagreements. Overall, however, there is good energy for partnering this year.

Ideas are abundant this year, and you can be especially enthusiastic about what you’re doing. You can get a lot done in the period ahead. December is an important time for learning your limits and for organizing important areas of your life. Partnering up to get something specific accomplished can be very successful. While there can be distinct opportunities on a mental level this year, watch your communications and pay more attention to important details. As well, conserving energy is important, as you can experience real ups and downs in the energy department. Relationships are dynamic, encouraging growth and change.

2015 is a Number Six year for you. Ruled by Venus. This is a year of relative contentment. It is a time when love is the easiest to attract, and partnerships formed under this vibration have a better chance for longevity. You are able to attract others, and material things as well, this year. This is a good year for establishing harmony in the family and in the home. Advice – develop existing relationships, be positive and receptive because these kinds of energies help you to attract what you desire.

2016 will be a Number Seven year for you. Ruled by Neptune. This is a year of preparation, chance, and refinement. It is not a time of dramatic changes. Instead, it’s a year when reflection on the past is helpful, and when refinements to your life path should be made. It’s a good year to study and analyze. Unexpected twists to your life story and “chance” meetings are probable. Advice – take stock of your life in order to prepare for more exciting years to come, examine the past and plan for the future, get in touch with your deepest needs and uncover your personal power, don’t strain yourself or actively try to expand.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Sunday, May 29th

Aries

The Moon is in your privacy sector all day, dear Aries, stimulating a need for more alone time or moments for rest and reflection. The Moon clashes with the Sun today, and you might suddenly feel quite overwhelmed with things to do. Remind yourself that if you move slowly and steadily, you’re more likely to reach your goals in ways that can make you proud. You don’t have to do everything at once. You may experience a temporary setback or discouraging situation, but it’s important to bounce right back. Take extra time for yourself today and recognize that you’ll be far better off in the long run if you do. This is a strong day for personal attraction.

Taurus

Your life is stabilizing, generally speaking, with the Sun in your solar second house these days, dear Taurus. However, this morning, emotions intensify and a feeling of restlessness can temporarily take hold. There is a tendency to act or react impulsively. Conflicts with others, especially friends, are possible now. The desire for change and variety can be at the bottom of this, as you can be quite bored with the status quo and you have a slight tendency to make others feel unsettled as well. But while irritability seems to come on quickly, you are also rather quick to settle down. Take extra time for creative and imaginative pursuits, which will be especially healing now.

Gemini

There is a stronger focus on your personal needs, wants, and goals these days, dear Gemini, with the Sun in your sign. However, the Moon in your career and reputation sector clashes with the Sun this morning, stimulating some frustration as responsibilities to the rest of the world loom and you may not be in the mood to toe the line. Moodiness is quite possible now, especially if people are making too many demands on your time, or if they are being vague. Get over this hump, however, and you can quickly feel that you’re back in the driver’s seat. Consider ways to add more imagination to your day for best results now.

Cancer

You are receiving frequent reminders these days that you need extra time for and with yourself, dear Cancer. However, the morning’s energies can stimulate a conflict of interests, and this can all happen within you! Part of you is craving more experiences and excitement, and another part would rather hide yourself away. As the day progresses, restlessness tends to dissipate and your imagination comes to the fore. Enjoy creative and imaginative moments, and indulge yourself with a book or movie if you can. There can be surprising attractions today, however, and possibly on the job.

Leo

Pressures are easing on you with the Sun moving through a generally happy, undemanding sector of your solar chart, dear Leo, and with more straightforward communications now, a week after Mercury’s direct turn. Even so, this morning there can be some moodiness if you’re not getting personalized feedback or responses from others. Part of you is enjoying some emotional distance from others, and another part is craving more intimacy, and you’re more likely to reach a compromise as the day advances. You may simply be in need of some healthy escapism. Mysteries and complex or twisted problems attract and engage you today.

Virgo

You may get a reminder to take care of or consider spiritual needs today, dear Virgo, as there has been a stronger focus in the last week on material, professional, and practical matters and you need to take some moments to balance things out a little. Find ways to recoup before you charge ahead. Add some imagination to your logical train of thought now for best results. There may be a surprise conversation today, or even a confessional, that acts as a form of release.

Libra

There has been increased energy for branching out these days, dear Libra, and for coming out of your shell. As a result, the morning’s energies may be a little deflating at first, as there is a move towards more spiritual concerns. However, once you become comfortable with the energy, you might welcome the chance to reorient yourself before charging ahead again. There may be some detail work to do as well, which seems to be at odds with your new train of thought, when in fact, you’ll do better for yourself in the long run if you can handle the practical things so that you can put them behind you.

Scorpio

You are going within and working on your “insides” more than usual these days, dear Scorpio, and this is good for you, but do watch for bottling things up to the point that you’re ready to burst. The Moon in your playful solar fifth house attempts to draw you out of your shell and can certainly help you to release some repressed emotions. However, with the clash of the Moon and Sun this morning, there is some tendency to feel conflicted, which can lead to impulsive decisions. You may be best off escaping into creative activity or imaginative recreation and entertainment. Even so, there is good energy for new ideas and energy related to work and health.

Sagittarius

You are experiencing a stronger need for companionship these days, dear Sagittarius, but the Moon’s clash with the Sun this morning can serve as a reminder that you may need to pull back from the action and find your emotional center. Otherwise, you may run the risk of feeling drained by demands on your time and energy. Honor the need to surround yourself with familiar people, things, and activities. There is good energy for romantic excitement nevertheless, and someone could surprise you, or you might experience a surprise attraction.

Capricorn

The last week or so has been good for making improvements and taking part in activities that support better health and work methods, dear Capricorn, although there have been some distractions and this morning is no exception. Today, you could feel some level of disorganization or a feeling of overwhelm when it comes to details. You may need to give your mind a rest, or to feed it with more imaginative activities, dreams, and fantasies, before turning back to practical and logical thinking with increased energy. There can be pleasant surprises with friends or through networking today. As the day advances, others seem more and more cooperative and easygoing.

Aquarius

You are becoming far more aware of your responsibilities today, dear Aquarius, which can be a little off-putting with the Sun in your solar fifth house encouraging focus on entertainment and recreation. As well, the Sun in this position stimulates a desire to express yourself and take some personal risks, but the Moon is currently in a rather cautious part of your chart, urging you to find ways to feel more secure. While you can feel a little divided as the Sun and Moon clash this morning, as the day advances, you’re more likely to see ways to feed both needs. You can also find yourself in a great light in terms of reputation and career today.

Pisces

While the morning can prove a little conflicting with mixed signals to deal with, dear Pisces, as the day advances, it plays more to your style.The Moon in your sign clashes with the Sun in your home and family sector in the morning, which contributes to some level of moodiness or indecision. Part of you is feeling especially independent, and another part is seeking out comfort and connection. Others may be a little confused as to what you want, and in truth, you may not know much more than they do just for now! By midday and forward, things seem to fall into place. There is good energy for new ideas about money and business despite the largely personal focus.

Summer 2016

a message from Gillian MacBeth-Louthan

To read more of Gillian’s insight, please visit her website, The Quantum Awakening

This summer many planets are bass-ackwards making all of us jump thru emotional hoops, as if we have not already been doing that for months. Understand this dear ones, as you walk forward toward the three eclipses of 999 you will be at a juncture of soul.  The past months/ years for some/ have left many faltering dangerously close to leaving the earth, and some are ready to ditch the light. Many are so emotionally consumed they are one step away from falling into a very large all consuming black hole. The human biology listens to every single word and inner thought you have. On the outside you are Pollyanna, on the inside you are Eleanor Rigby ‘wearing a face you keep by the door.” Every thought is either a blessing or a curse. By your words you shall be known.

Love yourself for doing the very best you could in any given situation and forgive your self for everything else. Do not carry guilt’s from any time frame.  They burden you, and weigh you down keeping you from flight.  They block you from feeling, they keep you from loving, and they limit you from seeing your true light. Stand in these energies of Light as you walk through the shadowed corridors of your own mind.  Every instruct, every failure, every guilt ridden thought comes and points its finger out. The guilt outweighs the good and the soul grows heavy.

There has been so much sadness and disappointment that the human heart is weary and just cannot consume one more morsel of bad news. As you walk through your own inner thoughts that are cloaked in fear realize that they too are trying hard to become light. The only way you can move ahead is with the vibration of love.

Everything is changing and becoming very demanding. The universe is pulling your ear and twisting your arm trying to get your attention.   It is demanding that you listen with your true one heart.  You are so afraid to look at your beautiful self.  You busy yourself in relationships, in cleaning; you busy yourself in everything and anything just so you do not have to spend time in the inner sanctuary of your own soul. The secret place the silent witness lives. That which echoes  loudly, bouncing off old hurts and hates.

When one hears the beating of ones own heart a cadence is created bringing a library of cosmic truths that wish to be seen from a different angle of thinking. As we all dimensionally shift everything we knew as truth also shifts causing great havoc in our souls. For what was our truth is like quicksand as it sinks to the bottom of what seemed so structured and powerful.

May 29th

Oak Apple Day

This popular British festival is held annually on May 29 and commemorates the return of King Charles II from exile. It was on this day in 1660 that Charles made his triumphant return to London, thus ending the English Republic and Cromwell’s puritanical horrors. Celebrations include the ringing of bells, church services, bonfires, and the tossing of eggs at anyone not wearing an oak leaf.

From the very beginning, the essential elements of this festival have rested with the boughs of oak leaves-a representation of the oak in which Charles had hidden from Parliamentary troops after his defeat at Worcester (in 1651). However, it is also possible that much of the tradition that is still held comes from a far older time, when worship of the oak was perpetuated by various Pagan cults.

Day 16

Sunshine Follows Me

Gray skies and rain, stay away.
Bring me sunshine, don’t delay.
Always near and never far,
Brighten my day oh burning star.

*You don’t need a rainy day for this spell. The “sunshine” can be metaphorical as well.
