As I will it, so mote it be! - Close your eyes and spend a few moments in quiet reflection, allowing the spell to do the work. Take several deep breaths, letting the anxiety and negativity flow from you like water down a stream.

Business and commerce are favoured today, which is why you can give serious thought to your moneymaking ideas. Meanwhile, if shopping, you will be tempted to buy beautiful things for yourself and loved ones. But hey – you can attract money to you today! Ka-ching!
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
It’s not often that your ruler the Sun lines up with Venus in your sign. This makes you super friendly! New love interests are possible. You won’t hesitate to assert yourself, especially creatively. This is also a great day for finances. (However, caution against extravagance and self-indulgence.)
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
This is the perfect day to find a special quiet place and enjoy solitude in beautiful surroundings, with good food and drink, of course. For some of you, this could mean a secret love affair. You might have a heart-to-heart talk with a female companion.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
You’re the most social sign of the zodiac, and today is a fabulous day to schmooze! Enjoy hanging out with friends as well as interacting with clubs and organizations. In particular, you will love to be involved with creative, artistic people. A fun day!
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Today you make a fabulous impression on everyone, which is why this is the perfect day to make your pitch or make a move to advance your agenda. People see you as attractive, charming and successful! (Did I leave anything out?) Romance with a boss or someone in authority might begin.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
You couldn’t pick a better day to travel for pleasure! Not only is this the perfect day to explore new places and meet new faces, it’s a wonderful day to fall in love with someone different or unusual. Follow your dreams today because the stars are aligned. It’s a perfect day to enjoy a vacation.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Even though this is a marvellous day to socialize and enjoy the company of others, especially romantic interests; nevertheless, this is also an excellent day to discuss how to divide or share something like an inheritance. Whatever is established – you will come out smelling like a rose.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
All your relations with others are blessed today – love affairs, relations with partners, coworkers even your enemies. In part, this is because you find it easy to express your affection for others today. Obviously, this is the perfect day to mend broken fences.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
A work-related romance might begin for some of you at this time. This is an excellent day to get along with coworkers, superiors and employees. Even your health feels vigourous. It so happens this is also an excellent day to discuss agreements, especially because financial favours might come your way.
If Your Birthday Is Today
Actor John Slattery (1962) shares your birthday today. You are purposeful, tenacious and ambitious. You remember things; and you are multitalented. This is an exciting time for you because you are beginning a fresh nine-year cycle. Stay flexible so that you can consider your options and be ready to move in a new direction whenever you want.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Despite this being a Sunday you should focus on your work and especially on the direction your career is headed.
This doesn’t of course necessarily mean you should take work home but more likely refers to the necessity of you putting a bit of thought to it. It is also a good disposition to enter a certain professional path but to also change the existing one if needed.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
It is essential for you to preserve your resources this day and even to try and replenish those you have wasted recently.
This advice refers to money, energy and human relationships. So be cautious when buying something or lending money today, take some time to get a good rest and also search for ways in which to strengthen your friendships.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Today you will have to put a bit of thought into making your schedule in order to cover all activities that you’ve set for this day previously.
This might mean either that you overreacted during the week by postponing everything towards Sunday but it might also mean that you need to be prepared for any unexpected event that might change your calendar.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Despite you waking up a bit tired or feeling completely under the weather it seems that there aren’t any real reasons for you to worry.
For some natives these feelings might be related to an underlying condition of acute de motivation rather than something medical. So gather your forces and update your goals to match your new desires and needs.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
It seems that today you are going to put quite an effort into making everything around you work just fine.
This might start with you repairing something in the house and then feeling so accomplished that you decide to try this strategy in all life’s areas. It might be a good thing to try and update things but just be careful because some things cannot really be repaired just like machines.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Today it seems that you are going to show off your selfish side and that you are going to follow your interests in almost everything that you are doing today.
And of course you are doing this in a very diplomatic way so those around you won’t feel offended in any way because of you being so self centered this Sunday.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
You are going to crave peace today so chances are that you will try to either keep everything to a minimum of simplicity or even try to isolate yourself in order to spend a peaceful time on your own.
You should be very careful with the signals that are coming or that you are throwing towards your partner because this is from where fire can ignite.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Today you are going to prove how intelligent and conscious you can sometimes be, I mean those times when you aren’t all self conscious.
Be confident with your beliefs and speak your mind because today there are high chances you will be in a place with lots of like minded people and you will be able to be all sociable and have a great afternoon.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
If yesterday you were all about group work, it seems that today you are going to exaggerate once again your capacities and you risk getting stuck in a certain point with your project.
This doesn’t only have to do with work but also with other aspects of your life, such as the relationship with your partner or with people that are younger than you.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
This Sunday will offer you the opportunity to focus on inner projects and to relieve some of the uncertainties you might have been carrying about yourself.
This will either be accomplished through your personal effort or maybe you interacting with people that are a lot more confident and a lot less prepared than you.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Today you are probably going to feel the need to spend time at home, with your family. It is a great time for a family gathering but you should also rule out any proven trouble makers if you want to spend an agreeable afternoon.
You are going to receive good signals from your family and this will eventually strengthen up your confidence.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Today you are going to probably try and mix your connections with your family.
This could be a sign of normality for some natives that might have kept their friends separate but at the same time it might not be the best idea for those natives whom come from traditional families and whom have chosen very different kinds of friends.

Ruis
Regret, pride, shame, embarrassment, learning from experience, resolution
Tree: Elder (Sambucus spp.)
Letter: R
Shame isn’t all bad and does not deserve a uniformly awful reputation. Without shame and the fear of being shamed, every human child would be demonically bratty. Shame is a limit that informs us to keep our own ego in check. It is often about considering others. Having shame about one’s own past behavior is motivation to avoid shameful behaviors such as cheating and stealing.
Shame is an emotion that demands confrontation. All too often, people run away from what shames them, attempt to excuse themselves from wrongful or immoral behavior because they’re too cowardly to face what they have done or to admit their responsibility in causing their own misfortunes or the misfortune of others. Ruis indicates a willingness to face one’s own shame and to do with shame what it was meant for, and that is to use shame of the past to build oneself into a better person for the present and future. Ashamed of something you did? How can you make yourself into the type of person who would never even think of doing something like that? Overcome being the type of person who would engage in the shameful behavior and you become the master of it; you won’t have the remotest chance of repeating such a mistake. Did you become embarrassed because you did something you now understand to be greedy? Then learn to balance thriftiness with generosity. Adjust to the circumstance rather than overreacting to it. Are you ashamed about cheating on a boyfriend/girlfriend or spouse? Become a person who would never cheat on your boyfriend/girlfriend or spouse regardless of conditions, which could mean an assortment of outcomes: sticking to a resolution of no cheating and staying together, admitting one’s sexual preferences and going with the flow, changing the person you are with, or being single for a long time.
Because humans tend to remember negative experiences more easily than positive ones, it’s important when you draw Ruis to acknowledge the things you are not ashamed of about yourself. For every bad or shameful thing you’ve done, remember there are a thousand shameful things you avoided. Maybe it is time to appreciate the places you could have gone horribly wrong and did not.

From MoonGiant.com
The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waning Crescent phase. This phase is best viewed just before the sunrise in the western sky. In this phase the Moon’s illumination is growing smaller each day until the New Moon. During this part of the Moon cycle, 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. 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.
Visit the August 2023 Moon Phases Calendar to see all the daily moon phase for this month.
Today’s Waning Crescent Phase
The Waning Crescent on August 13 has an illumination of 8%. This is the percentage of the Moon illuminated by the Sun. The illumination is constantly changing and can vary up to 10% a day. On August 13 the Moon is 26.92 days old. This refers to how many days it has been since the last New Moon.

Healing Water Enchantment
Ingredients:
- A glass of water (that’s it!)
I prefer to use a glass, but you can use a plastic bottle if it’s all you have. Water is the perfect liquid to imprint with your intensions, so this spell is super simple but instantly powerful.
Spell:
Hold the glass of water between your hands and say whatever you most need. For example: My migraine is gone and I am full of health.
Close your eyes as you say these words and focus on putting all of your energy into the water. Raise as much energy as you can (I raise energy through my feet from the earth and send it out through my hands) and picture the outcome that you want. Do this for at least 2 minutes.
Once you have enchanted the water, drink it within the hour for optimal results.

Every inch grows.
Step, step, step, step.
Keep going.
Water in my cup.
Or bottled not to spill.
Always a test of the mind,
And a test of the will.
Might run tired,
But I never give up.”
Saying these chants while exercising, will, hopefully, ensure your desire to repeat these routines, week after week, and make the time go by quicker.

(Spell for Today) FOLK MEDICINE HEALING c. 2014
FOLK MEDICINE HEALING
Folk medicine consists of traditional healing beliefs and methods used in
past cultures mostly by people deemed to have the healing power. As an part of a
culture’s knowledge and values, folk medicine is a system based on traditional
modes of conduct, of coping with sickness. Often sanctioned by the population’s
claims or religious beliefs, these popular practices are used to alleviate the
distress of disease and restore harmony in people who are emotionally or
physically ill, or both. Folk medicine’s lore is widely known among members of a
culture and is usually handed down from generation to generation by word of
mouth.
In general, the system is flexible, allowing the introduction of new ideas about
sickness and healing practices, many of them borrowed from classical and modern
medicine.
——————————————————————————–
HEALERS
To implement the various folk curing practices, most social groups have
established a hierarchy of healers–beginning with the individuals affected,
their immediate families and friends, knowledgeable herbalists, members of the
clergy, faith healers, and SHAMANS, or medicine men. Many are consulted because
of their empirical knowledge of roots and herbs possessing medicinal properties.
Others are considered endowed with healing gifts because of station or accidents
of birth. The belief that posthumous children have such talents is widely known
in the United States. In the European folk-medical tradition, seventh sons and
daughters are said to possess unusual curing powers; the same applies to twins.
Often spouses and children of known healers are automatically considered to have
similar gifts. As in primitive medicine, many people affected by ailments that
are considered minor and natural treat themselves, with the help of family
members. A vast array of easily available herbal preparations known to most
members of the culture is used to effect a cure. More difficult cases suspected
to be of a magico-religious nature are referred to local healers who are endowed
with special powers. These shamans stage a variety of ceremonies and employ many
of the techniques used in preliterate social groups.
——————————————————————————–
NAVAJOS
Native American folk medicine is popular in the less acculturated Indian
tribes. A notable example are the Navajos still living in their homeland.
Disease is considered a disruption of harmony caused either by external agents
such as lightning and winds, powerful animals and ghosts, and witchcraft, or by
the breaking of taboos. Three categories of folk healers are usually consulted:
first the herbalists, for symptomatic relief of minor ailments; if no
improvement is observed, then the hand trembler, or diviner, is called; finally,
the singer, or MEDICINE MAN, will carry out specific healing ceremonies
suggested by the hand trembler’s diagnosis. Ritual sweatbaths, drinking of
herbs, and elaborate sandpainting ceremonies characterize Navajo folk healing.
——————————————————————————–
HOT-COLD THEORY
The hot-cold theory of disease ranks among the most popular systems of
contemporary folk medicine in the United States. In health, the human body
displays a balanced blending of hot and cold qualities. Sickness will ensue
if an excess of hot or cold foodstuffs is ingested. The basic scheme was
introduced into Latin America by the Spanish during the 16th century. Reinforced
by native cultural values, it became firmly embedded in popular Latin healing
traditions. The hot-cold scheme is applied to foods, diseases, and remedies. The
terms hot and cold do not necessarily refer to the temperature of foods or
remedies. Qualities are assigned on the basis of origin, color, nutritional
value, physiological effects of the food or remedy, as well as therapeutical
action. Among New York Puerto Ricans, for example, bananas, coconuts, and sugar
cane are considered cold, whereas chocolate, garlic, alcoholic beverages, and
corn meal are hot. Cold-classified illnesses such are arthritis, colds, and
gastric complaints must be treated with hot foods and remedies. Their hot
counterparts –constipation, diarrhea, and intestinal cramps–require treatment
with cold substances.
——————————————————————————–
BLACK AMERICANS
The medical folklore of black Americans contains elements derived from popular
European and African beliefs, blended with religious elements belonging to
Christian Fundamentalism and West Indian voodoo. The world is seen as a
dangerous place, prompting individuals to constantly exert caution because
of the whims of nature, frequent divine punishment, and the threat of witchcraft
practiced by hostile humans. Individuals are urged to look out for themselves,
be distrustful, and avoid the wrath of God. Sickness is broadly divided into
“natural” and “unnatural.” The former comprises bodily conditions caused by
environmental forces as well as God’s punishment for sin. Unnatural illness
represents health problems caused by evil influences and witchcraft after the
loss of divine protection; the magical intrusion of “animals” into the body and
the placement of a certain hex play prominent roles in the causation of disease.
——————————————————————————–
MEXICAN-AMERICANS
Folk medicine is still popular among large groups of Mexican-Americans in New
Mexico, Colorado, Arizona, California, and especially in West Texas. Their
healing system, based on pre-Columbian indigenous lore, reflects a degree of
isolation and unwillingness to assimilate Anglo-Saxon culture. Moreover, the
inability of scientific medicine to offer relief for various categories of folk
illness further enhances the usefulness of these practices. Five types of folk
illness are most prominent: mal de ojo (evil eye), empacho (gastro-intestinal
blockage due to excessive food intake), susto (magically induced fright), caida
de la mollera (fallen fontanel, or opening in or between bones), and mal puesto
(sorcery). Prominent among Mexican-American folk healers is the curandero, a
type of shaman who uses white magic and herbs to effect cures. In the cosmic
struggle between good and evil, the curandero, using God-given powers, wards
against harmful spells and hexes. As in other folk systems, faith in the
curandero’s abilities is the essence of the healer’s continued success.
——————————————————————————–
FOLK MEDICINE TODAY
Folk medical systems, especially those ftinctionffig in a pluralistic society
comprising several distinct ethnic groups (as in the United States), govern
domestic healing activities to a great extent. Recently, the increasing
complexity, technicality, and cost of modem medicine have spurred renewed
attempts at self-medication and the use of herbal preparations, thus reviving
folk medical practices.
A number of folk remedies used *in the past are now manufactured as
pharmaceutical preparations prescribed by physicians. For example, rauwolfia is
an extract of the snakeroot plant, which was used for centuries in the Far East
for its calming effect. It is now prescribed by physicians to lower blood
pressure. Reserpine, a derivative of rauwolfia, has been used by psychiatrists
‘in treating severe mental disorders. Foxglove was first brewed by Indians to
treat dropsy, fluid in the legs caused by heart problems. This practice occurred
for hundreds of years before it was discovered that foxglove contributed the
active ingredients now known as digitalis. Today digitalis is commonly used to
stimulate weakened hearts.
Spell for Today – Cold Fire (to Bring Down a Fever)
A doctor discovered that I could bring fevers down. It takes a little practice, but I’ll bet that most natural witches can do it. Ust the Cornish invocation to St. Brigit:
Three ladies came from the East
One with fire and two with frost
Out with thee, fire, and in with thee frost.*
This can be used in conjunction with laying-on of hands. To remove fever from someone, summon energy like cold fire from your body. I usually do this by invoking the Snow Queen, who was always a goddess to me.
Direct energy into your hands, then lay them on the person’s neck or forehead. Make the cold fire flow into the person until you feel it confront the fever. When you feel the fever, set up a second channel to draw it into your own body. It may be easiest for you to use your receptive hand to draw the fever, the other to deliver the cold fire. Do this until you feel the cold fire has overcome the fever. If the person is shivering with fever, direct the heat out of the body and onto the skin while you fight the fever. It may help to wrap your hands around the subject.
This technique is not a substitute for aspirin or other fever-reducers. It is something you can do while waiting for the medicine to kick in. It can also be used in emergencies, when there is no medication. You may feel a bit flushed for a while afterwards, but you will not actually take on the fever. Fevers are cyclical, so you may need to repeat the spell whenever the fever spikes.
*Robert Graves, The White Goddess, p. 394

Eileen Holland, The Wicca Handbook, p. 91 – 92
(Side Note from Lady Beltane: I have used this spell since I first discovered it many years ago with success. I use it on myself regularly when my fibromyalgia is messing with my body’s natural temperature gage. I sit cross legged on the floor, imagining I have a small fire in my left-hand (my non-power hand) and ice in my right-hand. I than start chanting the spell until I feel it is time to bring my hands together to combine the cold and hot to restore my normal body temperature. It also works great for hot flashes during menopause or anytime anyone may get them.)
