Aries (March 21 – April 19)
A man with a large nose will attack you with a sword today, while composing free verse in archaic French. Luckily, he’ll get stuck trying to come up with a word that rhymes with “l’orange”, and you’ll have time to slip out the back way.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
Today you will put your foot down, regarding your turn at dinner preparation versus dining out. In other words, “if you ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”
Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
Today you will become a card-carrying member of a new and very exclusive organization named “Yeomen of the Carbuncle”, although you’ll spend a lot of time at the first meeting debating whether it should actually be called “Yeopersons of the Carbuncle.”
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
Not only is this a good day to throw a tantrum, but there’s a good chance that you might set a new distance record!
Leo (July 23 – August 22)
A strange package will appear on your doorstep — a basket of fresh longan fruit, lined with a page from yesterday’s Beijing newspaper. This could be a sign…
Virgo (August 23 – September 22)
Excellent day to be expansive and benevolent. It will make people worry.
Libra (September 23 – October 22)
You are about to invent a night light in the shape of a chess piece, which you will name the “Nighty Knight.” You should be ashamed of yourself.
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)
Bad news: people think you’re becoming paranoid. Isn’t that just typical, though? I mean, they don’t even HAVE invisible malevolent air-squids spying on THEM, do they?
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21)
Today you will seek out new life, and new civilisations. You won’t find any, of course, but you will discover a really excellent Chinese restaurant in the process.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 20)
Bad news: people think you’re becoming paranoid. Isn’t that just typical, though? I mean, they don’t even HAVE invisible malevolent air-squids spying on THEM, do they?
Aquarius (January 21 – February 18)
Today will be especially trying, and if you’re not careful, you could end up in a pretty grumpy frame of mind. Take precautions! Wear your E.T. underwear.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20)
Remember: you can’t tell your boss to get lost. You can, however, give him the wrong directions.

The Daily Cosmic Calender for March 12th

This is probably not going to be the easiest start of a workweek in recent memory. The main challenge comes from normally fast-paced Mercury slowing down completely from the Earth’s perspective, making a station at 7 degrees of Aries (12:49AM PDT), and beginning a retrograde cycle until April 4. All Mercury themes – communications, information exchange, words and language, intellectual prowess, reading and writing, classes and primary education, transportation and travel plans, health and medical matters, magic tricks and sleight of hand, stealth and theft – are emphasized throughout the day. Be careful concerning legal matters and signings. Don’t put your John Hancock on important papers if it is not required right now. Utilize the next three weeks to review and re-evaluate your literary, educational and business affairs. A Sun-Moon flowing trine in water signs (11:31AM PDT) seems to offer a promise of better times ahead since Jupiter is also about to trine Pluto (forming exactly at 9:45PM PDT). However, the Sun-Moon harmonious alignment at 11:31AM PDT also begins a 12+ hour void twilight zone that doesn’t end until 11:55PM PDT. During the lengthy void-of-course lunar marathon in Scorpio, Mars forms a dicey contra-parallel with dreamy Neptune (6:04PM PDT). Projecting your anger on well-meaning friends, associates or relatives is taboo. Instead of tapping into the creative, success-oriented energy-field being established when Jupiter trines Pluto at 9:45PM PDT, it is wise to wait until the Moon enters upbeat Sagittarius (11:55PM PDT) and then reaffirm long-range goals and hopeful objectives.

Your Daily Cosmic Calendar for March 11th

Psychic storm warnings are posted for today and tomorrow as the Moon continues its transit through Scorpio’s icy currents while Mercury is on the verge of making its retrograde station early tomorrow. Be extra sensitive to female relatives under pressure as Venus makes an off-kilter, 150-degree link to Juno (5:06AM PDT) and the Moon opposes Venus (9:33AM PDT). Even though tensions are palpable, you should be able to tap into your problem-solving skills since the Sun is making an inspirational, 72-degree contact with distant Pluto (5:12AM PDT). If you are in the mood to learn about unusual subjects, check out the wide-ranging literature on advances in holistic healing and alternative medicine as the Moon trines Chiron (8:34AM PDT). Counter any tendency toward worry and pessimism by lifting your spirits through enjoying your favorite arts, crafts or hobbies as Mercury forms a 30-degree link with Venus (8:47AM PDT). Take a good look at your insurance rates and coverage later on as Venus makes a similar link to Vesta (1:30PM PDT). Consider completing key tasks and work assignments today rather than tomorrow as Mercury in Aries shifts gears into reverse at 12:49AM PDT on Monday.

Your Daily Cosmic Calendar for March 10th

Today is a mixture of opportunities and challenges – with the auspicious alignments outweighing the potentially discordant ones. Upfront and early is a flowing trine in fire signs linking Mercury in Aries to Juno in Sagittarius (12:54AM PST). Because four other resourceful sky patterns will happen later today, you have an excellent chance to grow, expand and evolve across the board. However, you will want to move past morning tensions that could arise when the Moon is contra-parallel Mars (4:37AM PST) and then parallel to Neptune (6:16AM PST). Some confusion and chaos can be stirred up as the lunar orb contacts these two planets since they will also make a contra-parallel to one another on Monday evening March 12. Meanwhile, a rosier picture brightens this Saturday afternoon and evening as Juno trines Vesta in fire signs (3:03PM PST), Venus forms a supportive, 60-degree link with Chiron (6:29PM PST), Pallas makes a similar rapport with distant Pluto (9:51PM), and Mercury unites with Vesta in Aries (11:21PM PST). The investment scene, holistic healing realm, and the ability to work hard to solve problems are all being promoted. However, the monthly Moon-Saturn union in Libra (7:10PM PST) that also begins a short void lunar cycle in Libra from 7:10PM PST to 9:25PM PST can sow the seeds of self-doubt and short-circuit your well-prepared plans for success. Slow your tempo around the time of the Moon-Saturn conjunction and when the Moon is in its void uncertainty zone. Later on when the Moon enters passionate and intense Scorpio (9:25PM PST), play the role of amateur detective as you ferret out secrets and solve family mysteries.

Magickal Ideas for Your Ostara Sabbat Ritual

Magickal Ideas for Your Ostara Sabbat Ritual

 

*Color and empower Oestre eggs for health, wealth and prosperity.

 

*Celebrate the return of the Goddess by conjuring potted plants and giving them to friends and loved ones.

 

*Incorporate chocolate into your Ostara ritual.

 

* Review the items in your magickal cabinet or box and replace what is needed. Empower the supplies during the Ostara ritual.

 

*Bless seeds for the garden.

 

*Hold your ritual at dawn.

 

*Ostara (spring equinox) is solar driven. The sun moves from mutable, watery Pisces to cardinal, fiery Aries. Aries is a great “starter” sign, but it manages to poop out along the way. Any magick done while the sun or moon is in Aries should be supplemented with other workings later on.

The Daily Cosmic Calender for Friday, March 9th

Every so often the universe falls into a lull and decides not to bombard earthlings with excessive stormy weather, cosmically speaking. That is the scenario today as very few alignments happen compared to tomorrow and the four days thereafter as each day becomes a thrill ride every couple of hours. Right now Libra Moon suggests your continuing to improve the deeper and more sensitive aspects of your key relationships. In addition, explore the fine or graphic arts and take a friend to lunch at a favorite cafe. Visiting a gallery, museum or national landmark makes total sense. Your productivity quotient can rise in tandem with a Ceres-Uranus parallel (6:13AM PST). On the other hand, don’t be completely shocked if surprising events infiltrate the lives of maternal figures within your family. Be open to changing your diet or using a juicer to add vitamins and minerals to your daily intake of food. Realize that the two days that follow a Full Moon constitute a 48-hour time-period to disseminate the enlightening energies received when the Sun and Moon were at high tide in their monthly dance in the zodiac. Attend a play, piano recital, the ballet or a symphonic performance this evening under the welcoming aegis of Libra Moon. If going to the theater and having a night on the town is not your cup of tea, enjoy an impromptu party or gathering at your place. Love vibrations increase in wavelength as Mercury approaches a flowing trine in fire signs to Juno (forming exactly at 12:54AM PST on Saturday).

The Daily Cosmic Calender for Thursday, March 8th

With the Full Moon at its apotheosis (1:41AM PST and energizing 19 degrees of Pisces and Virgo), think more about helping the downtrodden and uplifting humanity than fulfilling your own personal needs. Service to the world – via compassion and empathy – is a special keynote right now. Send your thoughts and prayers to dear ones, friends, colleagues, humanity and the kingdoms of nature. What’s unusual about this Full Moon is that it simultaneously begins a long void lunar cycle in Virgo that lasts until 8:51PM PST. Therefore, finishing old business and projects from the last few weeks is more appropriate during the bulk of today rather than dashing ahead with new, bold plans. However, problem-solving and strategy sessions look promising – courtesy of a supportive, 60-degree alliance between Pallas and Jupiter (7:12AM PST). Breakthroughs in the arts, social affairs and even romance are possible due to a subtle and yet still important, 30-degree embrace between Venus in Taurus and Uranus in Aries (9:14AM PST). Chiron – the archetypal wounded healer, maverick, catalyst and bridge-builder between soul and personality – is supremely active later on as this celestial body is moving 30-degrees to Mercury (6:41PM PST), parallel to the Moon (9:02PM PST) and then parallel to the Sun (10:01PM PST). The last two alignments take place after the Moon has entered airy and affable Libra (8:51PM PST). The hours after the Moon’s shift into Libra are superb for improving the quality of your primary partnerships.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for Tuesday, March 6th

As mentioned in yesterday’s calendar entry, today starts with a cautionary signal coming from the Moon being parallel the red planet Mars (12:48AM PST). Being too aggressive or using inflammatory language is a no-no. A few hours later, opportunity knocks across the board as Venus forms a supportive, 60-degree rapport with visionary Neptune (4:26AM PST) while Venus parallels Jupiter (6:39AM PST). Venus in harmony with Neptune and Jupiter close together in time is something you should celebrate in arts and crafts, hobbies, literary and educational pursuits. One way or another, do not let this time-period pass you by without scoring points somewhere in your life, professional work and primary partnerships. Be more productive in your main fields of expertise – thanks to a subtle and yet still nurturing, 30-degree link from the Sun to Ceres (10:42AM PST). Beef up safety and security measures around your home or office as Mercury unites with Vesta in Aries (3:45PM PST). This conjunction doubles as a potential enhancement for increasing the value of your investments. Complete odds and ends during a void lunar cycle in Leo from 5:28PM PST to 7:28PM PST. Once the Moon enters meticulous and industrious Virgo (7:28PM PST), being the supreme organizer and efficiency master is your goal for the next 2+ days. Helping you maximize success in business matters and creative artistic endeavors is a flowing trine in earth signs from the Moon to Venus (10:53PM PST). Keep in mind that the two days before a Full Moon represent a 48-hour time-period of preparation for the enlightening energies embracing Earth and humanity when the solar and lunar orbs form their monthly polarity. The next Full Moon will happen early on Thursday March 8.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for Monday, March 5th

The universe moves from fundamental adversary to conditional support system as a fairly intense weekend morphs into an exhilarating Monday. The good news starts early when Venus leaves forceful Aries for determined, hardworking Taurus (2:26AM PST) – the earth sign that Venus rules. Being practical, sensible and economical can all work in your favor as Venus remains in this fixed, power sign until April 3. Coming into the picture shortly after the Venus shift is Mercury uniting with Uranus at 4 degrees of Aries (3:36AM PST). As the first of three Mercury-Uranus encounters (the other two happening on March 18 and April 22), anytime these two planets break bread together we can expect a torrent of revelations pouring forth out of the Universal Mind. The question is whether we can think fast enough and deep enough in order to understand what to do with enhanced knowledge and wisdom. After a slightly frictional 45-degree tie between Ceres and Neptune (7:13AM PST) – an aspect that might decrease your productivity temporarily – the cosmos comes roaring back with enthusiasm as the Moon parallels Jupiter (10:36AM PST) and Venus (12:18PM PST). Not only are these two upbeat parallels equivalent to unions from the Moon to Jupiter and Venus, but they suggests that Venus is about to parallel the largest planet – Jupiter – very soon. Their exact parallel happens tomorrow morning at 6:39AM – offering a cornucopia of blessings across the board. Nevertheless, as Monday shifts into Tuesday, be more cautious and careful since the Moon parallels Mars (12:48AM on Tuesday). On the home front and with loved ones, use words to heal – not harm.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for Sunday, March 4th

This is a good point in the Cosmic Calendar to remind you that solar and planetary alignments don’t just disappear in one day. Therefore, yesterday’s quartet of potent sky configurations – Sun opposite Mars, Vesta united with Uranus, Venus moving 135-degrees to Mars, and the Sun moving 135-degrees to Saturn – are still forces to reckon with, even if they are a little below the cosmic radar field. However, Venus in Aries is opposing Saturn in Libra (3:19AM PST) and this discordant aspect is clearly a polarity that can set in motion a big chill affecting love or money matters. Stop worrying about things you can’t control. Slow your tempo in romance and delicate business affairs. Emulate the tortoise rather than the hare in key activities this morning. It doesn’t help that the Moon squares Venus (2:18PM PST) – beginning a short void lunar cycle in Cancer that lasts until 3:19PM PST. The good news is that 3:19PM PST offers the Moon a new lease on life by entering fiery Leo and making two, mind-expanding trines – to Mercury (8:58PM PST) and Uranus (9:26PM PST). Because the Moon is closing in on harmonious trine patterns to Mercury and Uranus quickly, this implies that Mercury and Uranus are about to converge. That Mercury-Uranus inspirational union occurs tomorrow and – due to Mercury’s upcoming reversal on March 12 – Mercury will also unite with Uranus on March 18 and April 22. Get set for a highly stimulating start to the workweek tomorrow as Venus enters its main home sign of Taurus (2:26AM PST on Monday).

Today’s Cosmic Calendar for Saturday, March 3rd

Take advantage of all golden opportunities coming your way during this weekend as cosmic intensity is back near full strength. Although the Moon is in Cancer and promoting projects around your residence, kitchen, garage or garden, the Sun in Pisces forms a polarity or opposition to Mars in Virgo (12:11PM PST). This aspect alone would be enough to cause alarm bells to ring and put everyone on Planet Earth on notice that volatile conditions are on the rise. However, you also have to deal with Vesta uniting with Uranus in Aries (3:46PM PST), Venus making a frictional, 135-degree tie to Mars (6:54PM PST), and the Sun forming a similar connection with taskmaster Saturn (7:12PM PST). Plus – waiting in the wings is a Venus-Saturn opposition that will clock in at 3:19AM PST tomorrow morning. Under this aegis of celestial tyranny, it may be hard to get any traction going this morning or afternoon. Vesta with Uranus suggests being extra careful relative to your assets and investments. Venus and Mars in a struggle is often an indicator of increased tensions or quarrels between lovers. The Sun-Saturn skirmish may slow down business negotiations and enterprises before they get off the ground. If you are looking for a silver lining in the overall psychic cloud cover, find it and savor it when the Sun and Moon form a flowing trine in water signs (8:59AM PST). Despite all the challenging aspects, antique hunters and collectible aficionados receive encouragement from the history-loving nature of Cancer Moon as an emotional backdrop to this 24-hour time-period.

New Moon Report for Friday, March 2 – Mercury In Aries

 

 

Mercury in Aries

Friday, March 2, 3:41 am PST, 6:41 am EST

Brainy Mercury blasts into headstrong Aries to heat up conversations and fire off brilliant new ideas. Intellectual excitement is understandable, but it’s wise to maintain some self-restraint as the messenger planet is slowing down and will turn retrograde on March 12. Hurry up and wait might be the mantra of this misleading transit that incites concepts which are a little ahead of their time and require reconsideration before they’re ready to share.

Today’s Cosmic Calendar for Wednesday, Feb. 29th

February 2012 ends with a flourish as revolutionary vibrations associated with the first of the three outer planets – Uranus – strike humanity with intensity. Mercury makes a contra-parallel (1:04AM PST) with this planet of radical change, intuitive awareness and a vast arsenal of innovative ideas. Tomorrow – as Mercury shifts from south declination to north declination above the Celestial Equator – Mercury and Uranus will form a parallel. Therefore, mental excitement is at a feverish pitch as February ends and March begins, and many souls may be feeling far more nervous than usual. In the meantime, you have other fish to fry since the challenging vibes of the First Quarter Sun-Moon Phase (energizing 11 degrees of Pisces and Gemini) arrive on the scene at 5:23PM PST. The power and significance of quarter moons are often ignored by students of astrology because the emphasis is always placed on New and Full Moons. Every time we reach a First Quarter Sun-Moon Phase, the two lights are separated by 90-degrees of arc and the Moon is waxing in illumination. However, the key is to cut through obstacles along your physical and emotional pathways, and to manage your business affairs with greater finesse. Accomplish these objectives today and you are well on your way to taking a symbolic victory lap of psychological success tonight. Immerse yourself in a biography, bestseller or literary classic under the glowing literary spotlight of Gemini Moon.

Calendar of the Moon for Thursday, Feb. 23rd

Calendar of the Moon
23 Nion/Anthesterion

Diasia: Day of Ua Zit

Color: Black
Element: Earth
Altar: Upon a black cloth set three knives, a sword, and a sickle in the shape of a serpent; two white candles, and a bowl of barley.
Offerings: Any atonement for a wrong done by you, your family, or your ancestors.
Daily Meal: Fasting until the following morning.

Diasia Invocation

We have walked upon the face
Of this our generous Mother
And done wrong to many,
Whether by accident or by design
Or only by our lack of mindfulness.
Before we walked here,
Those who made us walked upon the face
Of this our generous Mother
And did wrong to many,
And their wrongs made them strong,
And their strength gave life to us.
We are born of the pain and toil
Of others, and this price
Is etched into our bones.
There are none truly innocent
Anywhere on the face of the Mother,
And we must all atone
For ourselves and for our blood.
Therefore we shall live always
With this knowledge over us,
We shall share a bed with its presence,
We shall learn to love its painful truth
And yet never become accustomed to it.
We shall work to atone for this legacy
Even if we only do no more harm
Through action or inaction.
We are children of Fate,
And we cannot afford to be blind
To the wrath our footsteps leave behind them.

(All sit on the floor and meditate. At the end of the meditation, the barley is poured as libation.)

Daily Cosmic Calendar for Thursday, February 23

Stop, look and listen! The cosmos wants you to be patient, calm and receptive to higher guidance. As mentioned in Wednesday’s calendar entry, the Moon in Pisces remains in a void limbo cycle until 6:49PM PST when the Moon enters fiery, independent-minded Aries. There is no need to dash out of the starting gate too soon since tensions are filling up the psychic atmosphere early on as Mercury opposes Mars (3:26AM PST). Reflect on your recent and current investment plans as the Moon unites with Vesta in Pisces (5:13PM PST). It is also wise to review insurance rates and coverage, and make sure your residence has adequate safety and security systems. Relationships are on the questionable side of the astro-psychic spectrum due to a feisty Sun-Juno square from Pisces to Sagittarius (5:37PM PST). Wear kid gloves when handling love bonds. Once the Moon enters Aries (6:49PM PST), your tendency will be to push forward in an assertive, willful manner. However, Vesta makes an off-kilter, 150-degree tie to Saturn (9:12PM PST) — becoming a further reminder to make sure you are safe at home and that your business affairs are rock-solid

Daily Cosmic Calendar for Wednesday, Feb. 22

Strange forces continue to be on the prowl following yesterday’s tumultuous happenings. Now you need to deal with a rather strident Mars-Saturn contra-parallel (12:01AM PST) that can send shock waves and negative emotions moving through primary partnerships. Be extra sensitive to dear ones under duress. Fortunately, the annual Sun-Pallas union in Pisces clocks in at 9:48AM PST. This solar conjunction to Pallas can help you perform some unconventional wizardry concerning problem-solving, strategy sessions, in-depth research, and strengthening your immune system. Communication channels receive an energizing burst during the monthly Moon-Mercury union (4:36PM PST), but shortly thereafter the monthly Moon-Mars opposition (6:25PM PST) ignites potential mischief-making with associates or dear ones while also beginning a lengthy void lunar uncertainty zone lasting for over 24 hours until 6:49PM PST tomorrow. Finish old business during the void-of-course lunar cycle, but don’t launch new, bold enterprises until the Moon enters Aries on Thursday evening. Meanwhile, Venus forming an off-kilter, 150-degree tie to Mars (8:26PM PST) throws a potential monkey wrench into the affairs of sweethearts. It is doubtful whether a shock-bringing Moon-Uranus parallel (11:00PM PST) will add a sense of calm. Do your best to bring happiness to a significant other without exhausting yourself in the process.
