Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, June 13th

 

Aries

Aries Horoscope
Aries

Desires can be misleading today, dear Aries. Aim to be more self-aware today rather than chase a sudden impulse or desire. The tendency towards impatience is very strong right now. There can be a series of minor problems that result from timing that is off, and although they’re small inconveniences, they can add up. Avoid overloading your schedule today. You might also want to avoid bringing up tricky topics, as any debates started today can easily escalate into arguments. Avoid letting your own insecurities cloud your vision of someone else. Consider that you may not be seeing people and possibly even things for their true value.

Taurus

Taurus

People may seem to be blocking you today, dear Taurus, whether it’s due to their mood swings or a sense that they’re disapproving. There is strong potential for small matters to escalate into full-blown dramas, as people around you can be especially sensitive. If you’re looking for straightforward answers, you’re unlikely to get them right now, but this is not necessarily because people are withholding, and more likely because we have a difficult time being in touch with what it is we truly want today. Timing can be off in small ways, so consider taking care of important business another day. Decision making about purchases and relationships should probably wait as well.

Gemini

Gemini

Venus in your sign tends to put you in a good light, dear Gemini. However, today you could find that there are misunderstandings or your timing is off. Some awkwardness in social situations is possible as a result. Expressing your desires or frustrations can come across the wrong way at the moment. Slight tweaks and adjustments may be necessary if you’re looking to get something you want. Avoid pushing things. Professional plans may not work out smoothly just for now, and for some, there can be rumors circulating that frustrate you. Avoid the temptation to over-explain and let your actions do the most talking. Later today, there can be some seriousness on a mental level, but your openness to making improvements can take you places.

Cancer

Cancer

You are more sensitive to rhythms that are off, poor timing, and subtle changes, dear Cancer, perhaps reading a little too much into what others are saying or presumably thinking. With a tendency to become aggravated by little things today, you’ll want to avoid taking it out indirectly on the innocent! It may be difficult to pinpoint the reason for discontent. Old issues that you thought you had buried might emerge and occupy your mind. There can be a feeling of being out of sync, and it can be hard to go after what you want either because you’re not certain about your desires or because circumstances seem to prevent a clear-cut and direct path to your goals. Indecision is perhaps a good thing because decisions made now tend to be half-baked. Part of you wants to get involved, and another part doesn’t. Wait things out if you can.

Leo

Leo

Relationships today may be a little tricky today, dear Leo, and it’s a toss-up whether they need extra attention in order to keep them running smoothly, or giving people space and avoiding overthinking problems. Friendly gestures may be taken the wrong way, something that’s said can be misinterpreted, and other such minor social hiccups. Try not to take these things to heart. While listening to your “inner voice” is generally a good idea, if it’s laden with guilt, fear, or worry, then it’s only going to stir up trouble. The rumor mill is busy right now, and it would be wise not to get caught up in the commotion. As the day advances, however, you’re in a great position to move forward and shine as you do so.

Virgo

Virgo Symbol/Glyph
Virgo

People tend to require more care and sensitivity today, dear Virgo, and there is a strong inclination for misunderstandings and resulting hurt feelings. You have a lot of energy for anything to do with learning and the mind, and the best way to use this positively is to throw yourself into a pet project. However, there can be some irritability as things may not go as planned and you might have some troubles getting others on board or understanding your point of view and plans. If you do put your foot in your mouth, simply take it out without much further ado. Keep apologies short, if necessary. Today’s Neptune station can cast a veil over things, and particularly on a partnership as well as others’ motives.

Libra

Libra Glyph-Symbol
Libra

Tensions, both internal and with others, are likely today, dear Libra. Watch for a sudden desire to one-up someone. As well, be careful with how you word your opinions, which might feel like an attack on someone’s values, even if it’s not what you intend. Tensions over money can also surface today if you haven’t been on top of your affairs recently. There can be a strong desire to get out and about but an equally compelling need to stick to what you know today. There can be misunderstandings. Avoid explaining yourself to people who are being narrow-minded but take the time to make things right with those who deserve your attention. Dissatisfaction might only resolve given a little time. The Moon in your sign harmonizes with Saturn and Vesta later today, and this can point to nice release from tension through work, productivity, organization, and attention to your responsibilities.

Scorpio

Scorpio Symbol Glyph
Scorpio

People tend to be very indirect in their approach to getting what they want today, dear Scorpio, and it can be difficult for you to find natural or easy outlets for your desires as well. A sense that you might stir the pot too much if you ask for something directly is with you. People can easily feel slighted, and maybe it’s better to avoid drama right now, which can very easily escalate today. While you may be drawing up plans now, you may lose interest in them later. It may be best to take more time to understand what it is you truly want. Trying to explain your way out of something is likely to be a waste of time today. Rhythms in relationships can be off temporarily, but don’t let this define your next move. The Moon is in your privacy sector all day, signalling a need for more rest and time for reflection than usual.

Sagittarius

Sagittarius Glyph Symbol
Sagittarius

It can be difficult to read or understand people around you today, dear Sagittarius, and they are unlikely to “get” what you want either, unless you spell it out for them. However, you’re unlikely to do so at the moment. Wants and needs seem to be at cross-purposes to one another. Focusing on the past or responding habitually in ways that didn’t bring you success in the past are both to be avoided, but they are also strong tendencies now. Save very important discussions for a time when people are less confused and when you’re clearer as well. Some introspection now can do wonders to help you to center yourself and to get in touch with your heart’s desire as the appropriate channels for releasing energy may not be available to you temporarily.

Capricorn

Capricorn Symbol/Glyph
Capricorn

It can be difficult to feel in sync today, dear Capricorn, both on the inside as desires seem to conflict with one another, and externally with others. This makes it hard to make satisfying decisions or plans without some feeling that you may be missing out elsewhere. Others’ responses can be confusing. You might also be wrestling with issues of trust, but do consider that some of these feelings could be stemming from insecurities. Wait it out, as it’s temporary. There can be some feelings of resentment stirred today if you feel taken for granted. Do your share of the work, and avoid worrying about what others are or aren’t doing.

Aquarius

Aquarius

Inner conflicts can stimulate restlessness today, dear Aquarius, as it can be difficult to make solid decisions that you can completely get behind. As well, you may not feel that you’re in sync with others on key issues today. People around you can be blowing hot and cold. Try not to take this personally, as it’s likely they are just as undecided as you are. Tensions in your career or regarding your duties are minor, but they can dampen your enthusiasm nevertheless. There is a tendency today to either neglect to see the value of valuable people and things, or to over-value something that doesn’t deserve the attention – watch for this! While it’s not the best time for presenting ideas or going forward with a plan, you can have great results with personal interests and projects, and a partner is likely to see past the social fumbling of the day.

Pisces

Pisces

Frustrated plans can interfere with your mood today, dear Pisces, but only if you allow this to happen. Avoid pushing your agenda and wait for a more pleasant day when others tend to want to cooperate for important talks or interviews. The problem now is that you may be meeting with people who either won’t budge on an issue, or who are wavering, lacking the confidence or presence of mind to make a firm decision. There can be an inner conflict between a desire to get out and about and a need to stick with familiar people and situations. Avoid flip decisions and try to stay in the moment.

5 Reasons Neptune Retrograde Rules

5 Reasons Neptune Retrograde Rules

Top 5 reasons to rejoice as nebulous Neptune spins backward

Neptune Retrograde takes place from June 13 to November 19, 2016, which means we’re in for more than five months’ worth of getting real!

In Astrology, Neptune is the planet of dreams, spirituality and personal possibilities. When Neptune moves direct, it helps us see the big picture and tap into our intuition and dreams, glossing over the harsher aspects of life.

When Neptune is retrograde, however, it’s much more difficult to ignore the truth. Neptune Retrograde is a bit of a harsh wake-up call, as it can provoke you to make big changes in your life, but here’s why we love it:

Top 5 reasons Neptune Retrograde rules:

1. You no longer ignore things like bad relationships or being in debt.

2. You have the ability to stop dreaming and starting DOING.

3. You are able to figure out what’s real and what’s fantasy.

4. You can think more clearly and plan more carefully for the future.

5. You will re-evaluate what’s truly important to you!

Your Weekly Astrology Report: June 13-19, 2016

Weekly Astrology: June 13-19, 2016

Seeing clearly

Things are clearing up now, and the universe is incredibly supportive of creativity and invention this week!

Monday, June 13: Neptune Retrograde

Reading between the lines gets easier once Neptune turns retrograde on Monday. You might have a heightened intuitive awareness now, but it could not be so easy to trust it at first. Allow yourself time to meditate or just sit with your hunches and honor what is flowing through your mind.

Tuesday, June 14: Sun sextile Uranus

On Tuesday, the Sun and Uranus will make a beautiful link, opening up your original, creative self in the most magnificent way. Use this energy to shine a light on an inventive project you’re working on. Or, make it a point to reinvent yourself in some way.

Friday, June 17: Venus enters Cancer; Saturn square Neptune

On Friday, Venus enters Cancer where she’ll remain until July 12. Matters of the heart will have a sentimental, security-driven bent. You’ll crave home comforts and will want to nest more with your sweetie and your clan.

Also on Friday, Saturn and Neptune will square off. It might be extra difficult to build a foundation around one of your highest ideals in order to make it happen. That doesn’t mean you should give up, though. Unless, of course, you are being completely unrealistic.

Thoughts from your Hostess of Light June 2016

Thoughts from your Hostess of Light June 2016

Hey Ya’ll, whew what a month so far! All I can say about this summer energy doorway is ‘whoa nellie’.

The livingness of mercury and Gemini is so animated it is like an unrehearsed ballet of ice road truckers. Just like the vibration of liquid mercury it moves in un-harnessed fashion doing what it wants to do when it wants to do it.The Gemini twins are both identical and fraternal of nature. They mirror each other but they also refract each other. They really do not want to see their true reflections in this earthly hall of mirrors.  Unpredictable is the word for this season of restructure. Restructure comes in a fashion like you just hired beavers to do construction on your house. Everything is turned upside down (cancel clear) and just like a toddler giggling upside down on a couch you are seeing the world at a new and different approach.

What we once thought was our truth has left the building along with Elvis and the seven dwarfs. Who we once thought we were is no longer viable in this dimension. Our cages have been officially raddled and we can feel the energy coming forth as we breathe. All of us have held a dream in our heart for so long it has become a part of us. We still have not seen that dream birthed no matter how hard we try or pray or let go. The very reason this dream has not been birthed in this time and day is the fact that we are no longer in a place where that dream need to come forth as a physical manifestation. Each dream in our heart is something our soul wanted to achieve while on earth. Each dream once held a key, an answer a heart fulfillment, that was necessary to the divine plan. Much of that has changed and now our hearts and souls seek something new, something else, something magical and divine to fill this noticeable empty spot in our human being.

The problem is that we are not finding what will fill us, what will motivate us, or what will save us, on this dimensional platform. Seems we are stuck in-between trains and the conductor is out to lunch. In this grows a great frustration. we know we are destined to do more, be more, to know more,  than a regular human. We have felt the mission/so to speak/ our entire life. now we feel nothing and that is the scariest thing of all. The human soul need a mission, it need to know it is important, it needs to know it is needed on some level. That is how you know we are not virtual or living in a matrix, but driven by an invisible need to fulfill and invisible need. No components in that algorithm.

Right now we drift in outer and inner space not hooked up to anything, like a red balloon that has gotten away from a child. We just float wanting to latch onto an island or two, wanting to land somewhere, but it seems that is not to happen yet. We are learning to let go, to trust, to just be without a so called ‘mission’ for a while. And that is one scary place to be. In the mean time fill your human being with more kindness, more love, and simple joys.

Earth does not keep the same shape on a daily basis she breathes in and out expands and contracts. Because of that spatial expansion and tightening we all float like an island that moves ever so slightly with the changing ocean. We are no longer attached to any outcomes as they have taken flight and now are on their own. we know where we belong but the winds of change are powerful and push us off course into a place we would not chose to pursue on our own. Like a falling acorn, we allow nature to cushion our fall.

Dimensional riff is not a place for scaredy cats. Stargates open and close on many levels issuing decrees in an ancient language and sound.   Liquid solutions to the earthly heaves and hoes are not to be had at this intersection of time. Learning to float in a sea of debris is ‘a must’. The codes of light you asked for come forth as you trudge thru the summer learning’s..  Like a carpenter bee you will learn to skate the highways and byways of dimensional conversion. This ‘mother of all holograms’ will support the billions of smaller projections within her own body like a salmon before it gives birth upstream.

Just like trying on clothes you will see many different perspectives of your inner and outer self. Imagine your life filled with open doorways and unlimited possibilities. Will you pick a vowel or will you stay as a consonant. Will you fill in the blanks of your hearts desires or will you allow others to paint the pictures of your future.  Like one who misinterprets cave paintings every school of thought has many angles. It is the angles them selves that create shadow, it is in the shadows we meet our self’s.

Let the guiding star that lives in you, guide you like the magi. Verification codes of authenticity are revealed in a timeless sequence of serendipitous events.  Smiles come to the face of the old ones that know… frowns come to the face of the young ones that think they know.  Your faces show the map of worry as lines are crossed creating new constellations and new life roads are explored. We are all under construction. Sometimes a road once traveled ends; sometimes barriers are built for a divine reason.

We will be forced out of our cocoons of safety and protection. We will be asked to journey through places that we never thought we could fit. We will be a mirror reflection for others to see that shift and change and an open heart are all places of safety in the harbor of light. Like cave paintings on the bottom of a corallized sea, only snippets of certainty can be whittled away before the ocean foliage covers it again.

We all walk forward with our hearts in our hands on bended knee with humble thoughts. We, who wear the Codes of Light, do so throughout time, never ceasing to trust what lives in our divine blueprint.  We all have been cut from a blessed cloth and sewn into a holy vessel that seeks the seas of earth.

Your Weekly Karmic Forecast: June 12 – 18, 2016

Weekly Forecast: June 12 – 18, 2016

The Karmic Tools Weekly Forecast covers the current planetary transits which affect people in different ways and to various degrees of intensity.  Take notice when it is a Personal planet (Sun / Moon / Mercury / Venus / Mars) interacting with a Social (Jupiter/Saturn) or Collective planet (Uranus / Neptune/Pluto).  And pay extremely close attention when it is a Social planet interacting with a Collective planet because that means something *big* is brewing that will move large groups of people along their evolutionary paths. Tuning in to the energy and rhythm of the planets can serve as a useful *guide* as you move along your Individual Path.  It also helps to understand your place within the context of the larger Social & Collective Story. Below, you will find out how these energies tend to manifest, as well as guidance and direction.

*NOTE*  There are some days when there are NO CONTACTS (besides the Moon), please note that there are no missing entries, we just list the actual Activations of each week + the day they happen.  

Weekly Forecast: June 12 – 18, 2016

6/12 ~ Venus (relationships, love & money) ~sextile~ Uranus (clarity & inspiration):

This energy, thanks to Uranus, activates a certain spark of electricity in the air. New relationships will have an unusual aspect to them and old ones can break-to-realign in a positive, even fun way with this energy. No monotonous routine, humdrum people or boring collaborations with this one. Use it to access your unique genius and deep well of creativity and then share if you can, with other like-hearted Souls. Take advantage of this energy to tap into areas you may not have realized were available to you before. Keep it light and upbeat; socialize and enjoy the experience of different people or new activities. Keep in mind, however, any relationships begun this week may not be based on qualities needed for long term survival. It is more a time to enjoy the people and experiences that pass through at this time and accept this gift!

6/14 ~ Sun (source & essential Self) ~sextile~ Uranus (freedom & individuality):

This activation will help you access a deeper sense of authenticity as everyday routine events may be enlightening this week. Anytime Uranus is involved ‘ah-ha moments’ are available, those sudden inspirations or the surprising clarity that changes everything is bubbling near the surface, you need but invite it in (to your conscious mind to be useful). Eventually, you will have to ground these breakthroughs in some physical form, but this energy supports the exploration of possibilities. Where can you use a dose of freedom & liberation? This energy also promotes ‘authentic living’ – you won’t be able to be phony, nor tolerate it in others this week. Just remember that truth sometimes rattles those who would rather play ‘nice’ (keep up appearances/status quo) than face the facts, so watch out for rebelliousness, if not in you then in others. This is not a disruptive energy, except to those who resist change. Don’t fight it – embrace it! Change is good, it means you are growing!

6/17 ~ Saturn (Reality) ~square~ Neptune (Dreams): (2 of 3: 11.26.2015 ~ 6.17.2016 ~ 9.10.2016)

This activation brings up many fears, illusions, doubts and can be a real downer. However, it doesn’t have to be. You are questioning EVERYTHING but because it’s Saturn, most of your fears & doubts may be around your professional security, your true purpose, your worthiness to achieve your dreams and/or your ability to manifest your dreams or accomplish your goals. Neptune is bringing in the fog so it is not the best time to make long-term commitments, though if you are solid and finally gaining traction at making those dreams a reality, this one could still activate doubts but hopefully, you have a practice in place that eradicates them before they take root. One more thing, Saturn is our physical limitations and Neptune is what is hidden, so it is a good time to be pro-active on your own behalf where your health is concerned. Get that overdue check up, take that overdue walk outside, breath deeper and more often. Balance your time at work with time in nature.

*NOTE* ~ This is a rare activation that requires more details if you want to work with them consciously. Saturn has a 28-year cycle and spends about 2.5 years in each Sign. Neptune has a 165-year cycle and spends about 14-years in each Sign. So they do not connect directly that often. A conjunction is the Initiation Point and the opposition is the MidPoint in the entire cycle. The Squares represent growth times, when it is often uncomfortable, but also leads to better circumstances … if/when you pass the tests. (See Dates & Signs for this current cycle below.) A good rule of thumb is that you will be given the same test (albeit in various forms) over and over again, until you pass. That’s Saturn! The Great Teacher, and a great planet & cycle to work with consciously. Neptune makes that a little more difficult, but no less valuable. It works on your consciousness, imagination, larger unifying concepts (union with the Divine) that are fun to imagine, dream & talk about but which will always require grounding to be useful & effective to your Self or others. Another reminder here is, you can change your consciousness in an instant. Your physical reality takes actual time & literal steps to reach its true form & full potential.

Saturn – Neptune SQUARES (in recent years)
1979-1980 = Virgo/Sag
1998-1999 = Taurus/Aquarius
2015-2016 = Sag/Pisces

Saturn – Neptune CURRENT CYCLE = 1989-2026
1989 – 2026 = Initiation in Capricorn
1998-1999 – First Test in Taurus/Aquarius
2006-2007 – MidPoint in Leo/Aquarius
2015-2016 – Last Test in Sag/Pisces

NEW CYCLE BEGINS – 2026 @ Zero Aries

AfterThought ~ Now, you can look at the current activation (11.26.2015) within the context of the cycle, as well as your own life. Reflect on those years and Signs. Above explains the planetary interaction. You can also consider the Signs for the lesson & purpose of the activation. Saturn in Sag is asking that you live your Truth in every moment, in physical reality, and be responsible for that Truth, hold your own structure and recognize your resources and the true Source of your supply. Neptune in Pisces is asking that we find the Love & Unity with ALL Life and reminds us that – no matter what – ALL Life is eternally connected, so you and your life both matter. You are an added blessing in a very large & diverse family. You are part of a much larger Truth & Story, your relationship to Mother Earth and her life’s blood (and thus, our life’s blood as well) WATER (Neptune rules the oceans). So you see how there are extremely important & relevant aspects of this very large 28-year cycle (within the context of the 165-year cycle) that we must take into account, however, any time Saturn is involved, we are assured that we will be bringing these larger unifying concepts into our physical reality somehow and grounding them in our body.

Celebrating Legends, Spirituality, & Folklore for 365 Days A Year for June 13 – Feast of Epona

das schwarze tor ..... the black gate

June 13

Feast of Epona

This was an ancient Celtic festival that celebrated the sacredness of the horse and the Goddess Epona-the spirit of movement, fertility, and war. So popular was Epona that she was the only known Celtic Goddess to have been honored in Rome, where she was often called Epona Augusta or Regina and invoked on behalf of the Emperor. Images and bas-reliefs of Epona show her riding a horse sidesaddle and occasionally lying half-naked along the back of one. She is usually carrying a cornucopia and goblet, representations of her fertility aspect.

 
In all probability, her festival would have been a “Horse Fair” and attracted hundreds of participants. There would have been horse races, games, and horse auctions. Most assuredly there would have been no shortage of stout ale and hearty edibles. These types of festivals flourished all over Britain before the Victorian era, at which time they became business auctions and less times of spiritual celebration. Even today, from June 13 through September 30, horse fairs dot the English countryside, providing people with a time of celebration and relaxation.

The Witches Magick for Monday, June 13th – Household Protectors Spell

blutige Dornen

Household Protectors Spell

Everyone has a protector, individual and family collective. If you think you don’t get help from yours, perhaps you need to give them a little more attention and praise. Use statues, bowls of stones, or other focal objects as a habitation for the family protectors.

 
This ritual is best during the waxing moon. Gather the following objects on your altar. Choose incense that reminds you of herbs, forests, and green growing things. Put a green candle in a holder and lay your wand beside it.

 
Decorate the immediate area around your symbol with pine cones, small statues of deer or other forest animals, ivy, holly, or something similar. Clean the guardian symbol so it hasn’t any dust or dirt on it. If the symbol is small enough set it on the altar or next to it.

 
Light the incense and candle. Stand before your altar and say:

Guardian spirits, I invite you to join me here at this altar.
You are my friends, ,and I wish to thank you.

 

Take the incense and circle the guardian symbol three times, moving clockwise.

 
I thank you for the atmosphere you help to keep clean and pleasant in this home.

 
Move the candle clockwise around the symbol three times.

 
I thank you for the light you send to purify and dispel the darkness.

 
With the wand in your power hand, encircle the symbol three times clockwise.

 
I ask for your continued help and protection for me, my family, my pets, and my property. I ask that you drive away trouble-makers, thieves, and other, physical and non-physical, who are bent on evil disruptive purposes. I thank you for your friendship and love.

 
Stand with your arms raised and say:

Lovely Goddess, Lord of the Greenwood, I present to you the guardian of this house, the special spirit I have invited into my home. I honor this guardian in this symbol of its being. Bless this guardian. And to your blessings, I add my thanks for its protection and friendship.

 

 

If you have more than one guardian, change all the its to their and so on. Spend a few moments lovingly caressing the symbol, mentally expressing that the guardian is important to you. If you have provided food and drink, invite your guardian friends to party with you. Talk with them, being sensitive to feathery caresses and mental whispers. When you are finished, thank them for their presence at your ritual.

 

DAILY MAGICKAL APPLICATIONS FOR MONDAY

DAILY MAGICKAL APPLICATIONS FOR MONDAY

Monday is named after the moon. The Latin term for Monday is Dies Lunae (“moon’s day”); in the Old English language, this day was Monandaeg; in Greek, it was Hermera Selenes. All of these different names and languages translate to the same thing: the “day of the moon.”

Working with the different phases of the moon is an important skill that takes a bit of time for Witches to learn. So why not cut to the chase and experiment with the day of the week that is dedicated to the moon in all of its magickal energies and aspects?

Magickally, Monday encourages the lunar energies of inspiration, illusion, prophetic dreams, emotions, psychic abilities, travel, women’s mysteries, and fertility.

Monday Is Ruled By the Moon

 

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.
Some suggestions for Monday enchantments would include:

*Getting outside and looking for the moon in the heavens. Sit under her light and absorb a little glamour. Call on the moon goddess Selene for practical help in magical issues.

*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

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.

Thoughts on Mondays

When dealing with a weekly spell guide, Mondays are thought to be the logical day for money, love, time and meditation spells. Since Mondays are thought to be the start of the work week, it gives plenty of time for a Monday spell to gain strength throughout the rest of the week.
