Get A Jump On Tomorrow….

Your Horoscopes for Wednesday, June 3rd

Aries 

While your focus on daily affairs may be keeping you bound to a desk or close to home these days, dear Aries, yesterday’s Full Moon has brought out a need for more adventure, a wider reach, or something non-routine. You could be coming out with a project, ready to announce something important to you, or promoting a recent project. Today, your personal appeal is strong. Avoid giving in to sudden impulses and desires, but do treat yourself to some form of light indulgence or extravagance – something that you won’t later regret. The Moon enters your career and goals sector tonight, where it will stay through to the end of Friday, and this can stimulate your ambitions.

Taurus

You might be in the position to play detective today, dear Taurus, or it’s about your disposition, as you tend to be investigating, researching, and analyzing. It’s a good time for probing and looking at old problems in a new light, but do watch for false information or a tendency to latch on to “facts” that support wishful or even fearful thinking, with Neptune clouding our vision. Today, you might suddenly become obsessed with something or someone, but this is only a mask for a deeper issue. Avoid overly impulsive moves right now, but do treat yourself with a small indulgence. People are drawn to you today – you have a little extra oomph.

Gemini

Today is a good time for giving your close relationships or significant people in your life their due attention, dear Gemini. Resolutions are likely now. It’s a time for showing how fair you can be. You might go so far as to people-please today, and this is just fine if you are truly feeling good about it, but know your limits on this front. Avoid going overboard to the point that you feel overloaded or put upon. Overall, the day is strong for connecting and bonding with others. The Moon moves into your solar eighth house tonight, where it will stay through to the end of Friday, and this can bring on a more introspective disposition.

Cancer

Health or work matters that have been brushed aside recently are in focus now, dear Cancer, and this is a good time to give them their due attention. There can be a good feeling that comes from being productive, useful, or helpful now, although the day’s energies may seem to favor emotions and pleasures over practical activities. It might be wise to allow more time for yourself to get things done. The Moon enters your partnership zone tonight, where it will stay through to the end of Friday. This brings out your need to be with others, but most of all, with a significant someone. One-on-one seems the most appealing and beneficial during this cycle.

Leo

You may have received a cosmic push to explore your creativity or to express yourself in special ways from yesterday’s Full Moon, dear Leo. Today, take the time to tune in to your heart’s desire, as it’s an important time for realizing your needs, even if they’ve been buried for quite some time. Watch, however, for desires that seem to come on too quickly, as they may only be masks for what you truly want. The Moon enters your work and service sector tonight, where it will stay through to the end of Friday. This can stimulate an emotional need to contribute and produce. Work and health can be in stronger focus.

Virgo

There can be an indulgent, passive quality to the day, dear Virgo. You are amenable and in the mood to spoil someone you care about. Family matters tend to attract your attention and thrive for you right now. Past issues can emerge, and it’s mostly a pleasant trip down memory lane. There may be a move or reorganizing of the home in the works, and new ideas about improving your home life or domestic activities. Later today, you are moving out of a domestic or withdrawn frame of mind, and could be itching to do something creative or share your ideas and feelings with others.

Libra

Teaching, authoring, and communications in general can be especially rewarding now, dear Libra. The day is more settled than it was yesterday, although you may not be certain where to direct your energies. You might find it nice to talk something through, spend time with others, and learn assorted facts. Personal magnetism is good. Later today, the Moon moves into your home and family sector for a couple of days, and this brings out the desire to surround yourself with familiar people and to stick with what you know just for the time being. Attention to personal matters is most appropriate now.

Scorpio

There can be special interest in, and focus on, money, possessions, valuables, and comfort today, dear Scorpio. You might want to look into ways to increase your income through networking, expanding your audience, and connecting with people far and wide. You could be looking into the past for benefits, or reviewing the past, especially with finances and close relationships now. The desire for comfort is very strong today. Tonight, the Moon moves into your communications zone where it will stay for a couple of days, stimulating your curiosity and desire for movement, learning, and connecting.

Sagittarius 

This is a day for being closer to your heart, dear Sagittarius, with the Full Moon having just occurred in your own sign. Today, there continues to be a lot of attention and focus on you. and with emotions still in the forefront but a little more settled, it’s a good time to consider what you need to feel satisfied or fulfilled. Desires can feel pressing, and you are giving off good vibes. Sometimes the Moon in our own sign can lead us to act childish or spoiled – avoid this as much as possible. It’s very appropriate to focus on your needs, but allow things and people to come to you. The Moon leaves your sign tonight, and will spend a couple of days in your values sector, prompting a stronger need to take care of what you have and own.

Capricorn

This is an important time for helping others, dear Capricorn, or for volunteering and performing other types of service for some of you. Others may need to go within and spend more time alone and resting with the Full Moon having just occurred in your spirituality sector and the Moon continuing to highlight this part of your chart until tonight. As much as possibly, avoid entertaining guilt about what you haven’t done. Do what you know is right at the moment and resolve to do so more often going forward. Tonight, the Moon moves into your sign, where it will spend time for a couple of days. This is a time for more emotional clarity as well as urgency, as emotional needs can feel pressing.

Aquarius

This can be a good time for reaching out to friends and people in your network, dear Aquarius. You may be especially aware of the need for their support, or simply the good feeling of camaraderie with others. You could be bringing something special to a group now, and deriving satisfaction from that. There may be surprises in your social life, but for some of you, there can be feelings of unrest if you are expecting more than you are getting from your friends. This is a day for being kind to yourself. The Moon enters your privacy zone tonight, where it will stay through to the end of Friday, and stirs the need for emotional renewal, rest, reflection, and healing.

Pisces

There is a stronger focus on performance, career, responsibilities, and what others expect of you today, Pisces. Keep a safe distance emotionally if you need to draw conclusions or deal with important facts and figures. Otherwise, entertain your feelings about where you’re headed and why – you can learn a lot about yourself in the process. Avoid impulsive moves on the career front today, but do watch for interesting and seemingly coincidental events now. Tonight, the Moon moves into your solar eleventh house, where it will stay through to the end of Friday. This brings less emphasis on performance and more interest in socializing.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, June 2nd

 

 

 

Your Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, June 2nd

Aries 

This morning, you may become aware of the need for adjustments, dear Aries. Concerns tend to be about your responsibilities and whether or not you are reaching for your goals, as you’ve been especially busy taking care of small problems and little things. If you’ve been spreading yourself too thin at the expense of your larger goals, you’ll feel the need to make changes on this front now. With a Full Moon occurring in your solar ninth house, you may be publishing or completing an important project now or in the coming weeks. For other Aries, you may have a strong urge to take off somewhere or to depart your usual routine or way of thinking in some way. This Full Moon can bring illumination to, or the culmination of, learning matters or projects. An idea that you’ve been working on might blossom now. Advertising or promotional efforts can be successful.

Taurus

Early day tensions might revolve around money, a possible purchase, or a need to get away that seems difficult to pull off, dear Taurus. If you’re feeling indecisive, try putting out your feelers for information. Advice doesn’t have to be taken, but may very well get your own thinking processes working in reaction. A Full Moon occurs in your intimacy sector today, and tends to bring matters to fruition or illuminate matters. Finances or shared resources can be a topic now, but for others, it’s about an intimate relationship or personal matter. While there could be some drama with regards to money, it might be a time for settling debts or collecting on money owed. There can be new insight into a relationship or a psychological matter. Emotions are important now, but can cloud over logic, so feel them but wait for big decision making.

Gemini

With Mars in your sign, recently you’ve been more assertive, courageous, and possibly hasty, dear Gemini. Today, with Mars in difficult aspect with Pluto, displaced anger might be driving some of your actions or reactions if you’re not aware of it. Try to examine immediate reactions, as they can be quite revealing of problem areas. A Full Moon today occurs in your opposite sign (Sagittarius). This can bring relationship matters to light, or could indicate an important epiphany or turning point. Something about you could be revealed. Sudden awareness of a pre-existing situation can figure strongly today, especially regarding a significant other in your life.

Cancer

A relationship or a personal problem can be weighing heavily on your brain this morning, dear Cancer. A decision may not be necessary, so take the pressure off yourself. Perhaps the conundrum should simply be felt now and the problem solved at a later date. A Full Moon occurs today, and can bring a service-related, work, health, or private matter to light. Some of you could be dealing with deadlines, or a sudden reveal of flaws to a plan that need management. There could be a new development, fruition of a project, or turning point that you’re dealing with now and in the coming weeks. It’s a wake-up call, but you can handle this onward thrust, and be happy for it. Emotions run high right now, so take things in before making important decisions.

Leo

You might experience some tension early today, dear Leo, as your desire to unwind and relax may be challenged. Power games might occur in your work, or pressures to get things done can weigh heavily on you. If someone’s methods grate on your nerves, try to dismiss them. Stay centered and keep things simple for best results right now. The Full Moon today occurs in your celebratory, creative solar fifth house, and this brings emotions to the surface and illumination to a social or romantic matter. This can be a time of epiphanies, breakthroughs, turning points, and sudden awareness. Unrecognized feelings might be expressed now. A project might be completed or announced. This is a time for listening to your heart, but it’s also important to take things in before making critical decisions.

Virgo

Fears of expressing yourself creatively or speaking out on a matter can prevent you from going forward with plans this morning, dear Virgo. However, even if insecurities or frustrations are holding you back, it’s best to present your more competent and professional side to the world, and perhaps wait for a better day for pushing forward with something entirely new. A Full moon occurs today, and can prompt a need to move around your priorities, particularly if you’ve been too heavily focused on your outside responsibilities or work. Home, family, or a personal matter can grab your attention now, and the need to bring your life back into balance becomes evident now. Areas of life that are stirred up now are in flux for good reason – to bring your attention to imbalances and to unrecognized emotions.

Libra

Concerns about matters on the home front can be undermining your confidence this morning, Libra, and the desire to flee and escape your responsibilities can be strong. Restlessness is the likely result. Take a deep breath and find a balance. Avoid dwelling on matters that you can’t change, and instead work on things that you can. A Full Moon occurs midday, and with any Full Moon, there can be illumination of a matter, epiphany, or culmination. This lunation occurs in your communications and immediate environment sector, and it can stimulate quite a bit of flux and activity. There could be things to do, deadlines to meet, a culmination of a project or study, or news of a travel or educational matter. While it’s important to take in what’s happening now, keep in mind that all may not be as it seems. Wait and see before making major moves.

Scorpio

Try not to read too much into others’ actions and words this morning, Scorpio. The tendency to dwell on past conversations and interactions with others that bothered you is strong with Mars in awkward aspect with Pluto. Avoid alienating people you care about, and be kind to yourself by attempting to let go of frustrations rather than dwell on them. A Full Moon occurs midday in your finance and values sector, and this can bring an important breakthrough, new information, or the fruition of a matter surrounding business or finances. This lunation falls along an axis that also has to do with talents and resources, as well as sexual and intimate relationships, so new feelings or discoveries may revolve around these things. Because what we see today may be a little overblown by emotions, it’s best to take things in, digest, and process before making big moves or decisions.

Sagittarius 

Angers and frustrations can be operating very close to the surface in the first half of the day, dear Sagittarius, but can be difficult to express directly. Differences in opinions now may very well boil down to issues surrounding basic values. It will be important not to dwell on the negative because it’s not likely to get you to a better place. Find ways to loosen up and relax. A Full Moon midday tends to define the rest of it, and it’s in your sign. This can bring a lot of activity and attention your way, and sudden emotions or epiphanies to your life. A personal revelation can occur now, or if you’ve been focusing so much on others and their agendas, you can have a sudden need to attend to your own plans and needs or a burst of independence. Pay close attention to what emerges today – listen to your heart! Take things in rather than acting upon emotions just yet.

Capricorn

Insecurities or worries could be an issue in the first half of the day, dear Capricorn, or you could be feeling a little under the weather, as recent imbalances may begin to spill over and affect you in various ways, possibly indirect ones. Make it your aim to keep stress under control by identifying those things that have you feeling off your game and working on eliminating them. You can handle a lot, but you may overestimate what your system can take, and going easy on yourself is important – something you may easily forget to do. A Full Moon occurs midday in your privacy sector, and this is wonderfully timed, as you are reminded to get extra rest. It might bring a work or health matter to light, but it’s most likely to stimulate a sudden and important desire to heal, rest, replenish, and self-nurture. Buried feelings can come to light, including things that may have hurt you in the past but that you’ve brushed to the side, and of course, getting in touch with these things is the first step to healing. Take time for yourself and steps towards a stronger feeling of well-being.

Aquarius

The desire to express yourself uniquely and creatively is very strong these days, dear Aquarius, although you could be wrestling with something from the past or insecurities that undermine your “performance” today. As such, you may not be coming across as smoothly as you would like, just for the moment. It’s appropriate now to examine your fears, but not to dwell on them. The Full Moon midday favors being around people, socializing, and expressing feelings. A friendship or romantic matter may be illuminated now, and epiphanies are quite possible. There may be a sudden demand for your company, invitations can come in, a romantic revelation, or an announcement can be made by a friend or lover – even a child. A pleasant feeling of being needed and needing others can be experienced now.

Pisces

Try to find a better balance between home and outside responsibilities, dear Pisces. Difficulties with friends or associates may be affecting your home life, and you don’t need the added stress. Resentments or unresolved problems can have a way of emerging in erratic ways early today. The Moon is Full midday, influencing your public sector. This can bring you into the spotlight, and increases your visibility in general. What you have and haven’t done may seem to be everybody’s business now, and whether you’re feeling comfortable with it or not, put on your best show! Paying closer attention to the rules is important now. It’s another reminder to better manage your time and attention, keeping your personal and professional or public lives separate and neither one left neglected or overdone.

Full Moon in Sagittarius Horoscopes

It’s fact vs. fantasy during June’s Full Moon

Rick LevineRick Levine on the topics of sagittarius, moon, horoscopes, full moon, astrology
The opinionated Sagittarius Full Moon on June 2, 2015, pits our beliefs against the facts as we struggle to find truth. The scheming Gemini Sun is nestled between retrograde Mercury and impetuous Mars, ready to turn our plans upside down and our schedules inside out. The Full Moon in Sagittarius entices us with visions of a bountiful future, while the Sun, Mercury, and Mars in curious Gemini motivate us to gather more information to support our dreams. Unfortunately, we use this data, whether or not it is valid, to justify our positions.

We could be caught off guard if we assume everything will unfold according to our wishes, since this Full Moon squares fantasy-prone Neptune. But the Moon also forms a Grand Trine with auspicious Jupiter and unstable Uranus, showing us that change is inevitable, and will likely work in our favor.

Read more about the effects of the Full Moon in Sagittarius by reading your zodiac sign’s horoscope below:

Aries Horoscope (March 21 – April 19)

You must be ready to shift gears on a moment’s notice, since your plans are likely to expand with the Sagittarius Full Moon magnifying your 9th House of Big Ideas. Until this Full Moon, you believed your own story and knew where you were going, but your world is about to change dramatically. Thankfully you’re up for the challenge, as long as you can keep the conversations flowing. Don’t try to schedule anything too far in advance since your current success depends upon your spontaneity. The future is contained in the here and now; all you have to do is find it.

Taurus Horoscope (April 20 – May 20)

You may need to re-evaluate your strategy when you discover that your allies aren’t as committed to your success as you previously thought. Whether or not you receive support, it’s still wise to conserve your resources until you determine how your actions fit into the larger picture. But don’t immediately rush to remedy a potential problem while the Sagittarius Full Moon destabilizes your 8th House of Shared Resources. Be patient; ultimately, you could be in a better position than you think if you don’t overreact and push everyone away.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – June 20)

It might seem as if people are being emotionally demanding as the Sagittarius Full Moon lights up your 7th House of Others. You’re forced to re-evaluate your relationship options, motivating you to grow in ways that can actually ease the current pressure. Unfortunately, pretending everything is fine only makes matters worse. Take a risk and start a conversation about what you need to feel more secure. Your disclosure could precipitate a disagreement, but sticking with the discussion will ultimately lead to a stronger partnership. No pain, no gain.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – July 22)

Maintaining your boundaries at work can be tricky as the Sagittarius Full Moon floods your 6th House of Routine. Your dreams are so vivid that they overflow into your waking life, impacting your job and everyone around you. You might be annoyed that your current employment isn’t emotionally satisfying or intellectually challenging. Nevertheless, expressing your preferences without misdirecting anger at a coworker could lead to a major breakthrough when it comes to your career. Embrace the future and don’t look back.

Leo Horoscope (July 23 – Aug. 22)

You Lions like to shine your light with the brilliant radiance of the Sun, but you’re encouraged to express your deeper feelings as the Sagittarius Full Moon emphasizes your 5th House of Romance. Sinking further into the emotional lunar realms is essential if you truly want to deepen a friendship or intensify a relationship. Although you might think a rational approach will keep you safe, logic only takes you so far when it comes to love.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)

You’re rather pensive these days, but you’re still ready to act on a thought that’s been running around in your head. However, you can feel the palpable tension between your spoken words and your unexpressed desires. You might try to separate the rational from the irrational, but the two are hopelessly entangled while the optimistic Sagittarius Full Moon illuminates your 4th House of Roots. Knowing where you want to go is more important now than knowing how to get there. Let go of the logistics and follow your heart.

Libra Horoscope (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)

You may be questioning everything you know, but the current cosmic energy indicates you’re probably traveling on the right path. The philosophical Sagittarius Full Moon amplifies your 3rd House of Communication, presenting you with another layer of an irresolvable paradox. But it’s fruitless to adopt a global perspective, so return your attention to your immediate environment where you can directly influence the dynamics. You can’t solve all the problems in the world, but you certainly can attend to the most practical details that improve your everyday existence.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)

You’ve been sitting on an emotional volcano and you could be tempted to release the tension as the Sagittarius Full Moon activates your 2nd House of Values. If you feel as if you’re ready to explode, it’s more prudent to take a deep breath first and re-examine how your basic beliefs are influencing your current frustration. Altering your assumptions about what you need in any relationship can catalyze the dynamics and free you from the past. Your dependence on the approval of others diminishes as your self-esteem grows. There’s no time like the present; claim your power now.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)

Your emotions are running amok, forcing you to follow your instincts rather than common sense. Fortunately, the Full Moon in your sign enables you to experience brilliant flashes of awareness like strikes of lightning in a storm. Don’t withdraw from those closest to you just because the situation is uncomfortable. Instead, continue to share your feelings with those you trust most. The best way to cultivate your relationships now is to keep your heart open to surprises.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)

Someone may throw you a curve ball as the boisterous Sagittarius Full Moon lands in your 12th House of Privacy. Hidden emotions are brought out into the open, whether you approve of the disclosure or not. You might believe that keeping up appearances is the best way to handle the current awkwardness. However, staying light on your feet enables you to successfully navigate any unexpected changes. Remember, like the sure-footed Mountain Goat, you can dance on the edge of a cliff without ever losing balance, as long as you don’t look down.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)

Your exhilaration is irrepressible; you have people to see and places to go while the Sagittarius Full Moon energizes your 11th House of Social Networking. You’re eager for a significant change and you could receive clear signals about your future. Everything that occurs is just one more clue to the puzzle. Nevertheless, you still must connect the dots for the current picture to make sense. Stay fully awake now so you can successfully ride the waves of this current cosmic buzz.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb. 19 – March 20)

Your ambitions to get ahead could generate exciting electric sparks in a business relationship as the Sagittarius Full Moon triggers your 10th House of Career. However, your professional objectives seem to be dynamically opposed to the simple pleasures of home and family life. Although peace and quiet may be hard to find, open and honest discussions can ultimately create the emotional foundation you seek without compromising the pursuit of your dreams.

a message from Selacia

We have a powerful full moon this week, June 2 in adventuresome Sagittarius, setting the stage for some unpredictable emotional undercurrents arising in your life. Relationships will be front and center, emotional tides swirling and getting your attention. In this article I give some tips for navigating these energies and keeping things in perspective.

This will help you begin June in a positive and powerful way, reducing the likelihood of re-dos and fixes. In my 2015 Predictions article I described the need this year to update the status quo in your life. This includes relationships, so vital to your progress and enlightenment. I’m mentioning this now because this week’s full moon is likely to shine the light on imbalances in your relationships – to yourself, to others, and to spirit.
Benefits of Knowing Ahead

When you are about to have a challenging energy cycle, there are benefits of knowing ahead and also reminding yourself during the cycle so you can stay present. Knowing what you are dealing with can add peace to your day, helping you to have a bigger picture.

Remember, too, that no cycle is all good or all bad. When there is a ripple on the water, it doesn’t mean a tidal wave is approaching. Don’t let fear color your experiences, preventing you from enjoying your day. Opportunities and benevolent situations will exist alongside challenges.
Tips for this Full Moon Week

The following are some suggestions to make the most of this week’s energies.

First – Ground yourself more regularly than usual now. You will need to be fully present and connected to your heart, and you can only do that to the extent you are grounded. Being grounded will help you avoid enlarging on issues that get illuminated by the full moon.

Second – Since emotions may be amplified, when the negative ones like anger arise, deal with them within yourself before you take actions or communicate with others. Use times like this to become more skilled managing your emotions. This is a vital key to good relationships.

Third – Full moons tend to bring to light what you couldn’t see before. Some of what you discover will trigger emotions – happy, sad, and everything in between. Do your best to stay neutral as new information is revealed. Even the things that really are personal to you are better viewed from the higher perspective of spirit. Invite that view so you can respond appropriately.

Fourth – This particular cycle may trigger some deep inner questions – about where you are really going and why you are living your life as you are. When these arise, don’t simply dismiss them or treat them like a repeat that has no resolution. Go deeper within yourself and contemplate these questions in a new way, asking spirit for a fresh approach.

Fifth – Right now is a beneficial time to update your view of how you express your soul purpose. The current energies support your receiving a new sense of clarity about your path. Therefore, be open to new information. It’s possible you could have overlooked a key activity or even a certain relationship crucial to your next steps.

You are a divine changemaker, here now to be at the forefront of creating a brand-new type of world. Deep within your bones, you know the merits of what you are doing and being. Remind yourself daily that you do not walk alone. You are surrounded and supported by countless beings who share your light-filled vision. Even if you sometimes can’t feel this, trust that the support is there.

An outdoor working area-make sure it is a flat, safe surface to set up all of the spell supplies on (you need to be outside for this one, otherwise you will set off the smoke alarms while you are burning the paper in the cauldron; dron; talk about blowing the magickal mood!)

 

You have to be careful with the fire. Anytime you have an open flame inside of a cauldron, fire pit, or fireplace and you add magick and intention, things tend to be unpredictable with the flames. Also, just a few drops of alcohol will help that paper burn. So don’t go overboard and singe yourself. Safety first! The spell fire is symbolic. A little fire held within a metal cauldron that is lit with intention does pack more power than you realize, so please be smart and safe and work this full moon spell with care.

 

Arrange the outdoor setup as follows. Engrave and then place the candles in their holders, and set them toward the back of your working area. Position the metal cauldron dron in the center. Leave a small area to place the Knight of Swords card in front of the cauldron, where it is easily visible. Set the rubbing alcohol, the matches, and paper and pen to the side and within reach.

 

To start, take up the paper and pen and write down what it is that you fear. Keep it short and to the point. Then, fold the paper in half and drop it into the cauldron. Sprinkle kle a bit of rubbing alcohol on the paper. Close up the bottle and set it off and away to the side. Now put your game face on. Call up whatever courage you can muster. Visualize those Spartan soldiers or the god Mars standing strong and right alongside of you. Come on, tap into that warrior energy. Growl. Get tough, and raise up some courageous energy. Hold your hands out and over the cauldron. Now repeat this verse with intention:

 

Mars energy is bolstered by the full moon light
I remove anxiety and stress on this night
Mighty warrior energy now defeats the shadows and fear
As I conjure bravery and courage to reside with me here!

 
Move your hands away from the cauldron. Step back from the work area and strike the match. Carefully drop it on top of the paper inside of the cauldron. If necessary, you can hold the match to the edge of the paper and encourage it to completely burn. If you need to use a couple of matches, that’s fine. Just drop the spent matches inside of the cauldron. Keep going until the paper is ash. Then close the spell with these lines:

 

Ashes to ashes and dust to moon dust
My courage soars and my magick is just
I work boldly with the days of witchery
This lunar spell is sealed; set the magick free!

 
You may snuff the black and red illuminator candles and take them inside with you. If you wish, use them again for other Tuesday spells or to repeat this spell if necessary. Allow the contents of the cauldron to cool completely, then take a little garden spade and bury the ashes in the garden. Pour water on top of the spot to make doubly sure nothing is smoldering. Tap your fist on the ground on top of it, and say:

 

So mote it be!

Making Your Own Moon Water

Lunar MothMaking Your Own Moon Water

Moon water is really simple to make and can be used for all sorts of spell work, rituals and anointing. It is useful to have in stock when you need to use the power of the Moon phase at a different time.

 

Using a dish, bowl or bottle, fill it with spring water and leave it outside (if it can be safely done) or on a windowsill so that it can soak up the power of the Full Moon. You can also do the same process on the New, Waxing, Waning or Dark Moon phases too. Once the water has absorbed the power of the Moon, you can keep it in an airtight bottle for future use.

 

You can also add a pinch of sea salt to the water to give it extra cleansing and purifying oomph.

Get A Jump On Tomorrow, Your Horoscopes for Tuesday, June 1

 

Get A Jump On Tomorrow…..

Your Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, June 2nd

Aries 

This morning, you may become aware of the need for adjustments, dear Aries. Concerns tend to be about your responsibilities and whether or not you are reaching for your goals, as you’ve been especially busy taking care of small problems and little things. If you’ve been spreading yourself too thin at the expense of your larger goals, you’ll feel the need to make changes on this front now. With a Full Moon occurring in your solar ninth house, you may be publishing or completing an important project now or in the coming weeks. For other Aries, you may have a strong urge to take off somewhere or to depart your usual routine or way of thinking in some way. This Full Moon can bring illumination to, or the culmination of, learning matters or projects. An idea that you’ve been working on might blossom now. Advertising or promotional efforts can be successful.

Taurus

Early day tensions might revolve around money, a possible purchase, or a need to get away that seems difficult to pull off, dear Taurus. If you’re feeling indecisive, try putting out your feelers for information. Advice doesn’t have to be taken, but may very well get your own thinking processes working in reaction. A Full Moon occurs in your intimacy sector today, and tends to bring matters to fruition or illuminate matters. Finances or shared resources can be a topic now, but for others, it’s about an intimate relationship or personal matter. While there could be some drama with regards to money, it might be a time for settling debts or collecting on money owed. There can be new insight into a relationship or a psychological matter. Emotions are important now, but can cloud over logic, so feel them but wait for big decision making.

Gemini

With Mars in your sign, recently you’ve been more assertive, courageous, and possibly hasty, dear Gemini. Today, with Mars in difficult aspect with Pluto, displaced anger might be driving some of your actions or reactions if you’re not aware of it. Try to examine immediate reactions, as they can be quite revealing of problem areas. A Full Moon today occurs in your opposite sign (Sagittarius). This can bring relationship matters to light, or could indicate an important epiphany or turning point. Something about you could be revealed. Sudden awareness of a pre-existing situation can figure strongly today, especially regarding a significant other in your life.

Cancer

A relationship or a personal problem can be weighing heavily on your brain this morning, dear Cancer. A decision may not be necessary, so take the pressure off yourself. Perhaps the conundrum should simply be felt now and the problem solved at a later date. A Full Moon occurs today, and can bring a service-related, work, health, or private matter to light. Some of you could be dealing with deadlines, or a sudden reveal of flaws to a plan that need management. There could be a new development, fruition of a project, or turning point that you’re dealing with now and in the coming weeks. It’s a wake-up call, but you can handle this onward thrust, and be happy for it. Emotions run high right now, so take things in before making important decisions.

Leo

You might experience some tension early today, dear Leo, as your desire to unwind and relax may be challenged. Power games might occur in your work, or pressures to get things done can weigh heavily on you. If someone’s methods grate on your nerves, try to dismiss them. Stay centered and keep things simple for best results right now. The Full Moon today occurs in your celebratory, creative solar fifth house, and this brings emotions to the surface and illumination to a social or romantic matter. This can be a time of epiphanies, breakthroughs, turning points, and sudden awareness. Unrecognized feelings might be expressed now. A project might be completed or announced. This is a time for listening to your heart, but it’s also important to take things in before making critical decisions.

Virgo

Fears of expressing yourself creatively or speaking out on a matter can prevent you from going forward with plans this morning, dear Virgo. However, even if insecurities or frustrations are holding you back, it’s best to present your more competent and professional side to the world, and perhaps wait for a better day for pushing forward with something entirely new. A Full moon occurs today, and can prompt a need to move around your priorities, particularly if you’ve been too heavily focused on your outside responsibilities or work. Home, family, or a personal matter can grab your attention now, and the need to bring your life back into balance becomes evident now. Areas of life that are stirred up now are in flux for good reason – to bring your attention to imbalances and to unrecognized emotions.

Libra

Concerns about matters on the home front can be undermining your confidence this morning, Libra, and the desire to flee and escape your responsibilities can be strong. Restlessness is the likely result. Take a deep breath and find a balance. Avoid dwelling on matters that you can’t change, and instead work on things that you can. A Full Moon occurs midday, and with any Full Moon, there can be illumination of a matter, epiphany, or culmination. This lunation occurs in your communications and immediate environment sector, and it can stimulate quite a bit of flux and activity. There could be things to do, deadlines to meet, a culmination of a project or study, or news of a travel or educational matter. While it’s important to take in what’s happening now, keep in mind that all may not be as it seems. Wait and see before making major moves.

Scorpio

Try not to read too much into others’ actions and words this morning, Scorpio. The tendency to dwell on past conversations and interactions with others that bothered you is strong with Mars in awkward aspect with Pluto. Avoid alienating people you care about, and be kind to yourself by attempting to let go of frustrations rather than dwell on them. A Full Moon occurs midday in your finance and values sector, and this can bring an important breakthrough, new information, or the fruition of a matter surrounding business or finances. This lunation falls along an axis that also has to do with talents and resources, as well as sexual and intimate relationships, so new feelings or discoveries may revolve around these things. Because what we see today may be a little overblown by emotions, it’s best to take things in, digest, and process before making big moves or decisions.

Sagittarius 

Angers and frustrations can be operating very close to the surface in the first half of the day, dear Sagittarius, but can be difficult to express directly. Differences in opinions now may very well boil down to issues surrounding basic values. It will be important not to dwell on the negative because it’s not likely to get you to a better place. Find ways to loosen up and relax. A Full Moon midday tends to define the rest of it, and it’s in your sign. This can bring a lot of activity and attention your way, and sudden emotions or epiphanies to your life. A personal revelation can occur now, or if you’ve been focusing so much on others and their agendas, you can have a sudden need to attend to your own plans and needs or a burst of independence. Pay close attention to what emerges today – listen to your heart! Take things in rather than acting upon emotions just yet.

Capricorn

Insecurities or worries could be an issue in the first half of the day, dear Capricorn, or you could be feeling a little under the weather, as recent imbalances may begin to spill over and affect you in various ways, possibly indirect ones. Make it your aim to keep stress under control by identifying those things that have you feeling off your game and working on eliminating them. You can handle a lot, but you may overestimate what your system can take, and going easy on yourself is important – something you may easily forget to do. A Full Moon occurs midday in your privacy sector, and this is wonderfully timed, as you are reminded to get extra rest. It might bring a work or health matter to light, but it’s most likely to stimulate a sudden and important desire to heal, rest, replenish, and self-nurture. Buried feelings can come to light, including things that may have hurt you in the past but that you’ve brushed to the side, and of course, getting in touch with these things is the first step to healing. Take time for yourself and steps towards a stronger feeling of well-being.

Aquarius

The desire to express yourself uniquely and creatively is very strong these days, dear Aquarius, although you could be wrestling with something from the past or insecurities that undermine your “performance” today. As such, you may not be coming across as smoothly as you would like, just for the moment. It’s appropriate now to examine your fears, but not to dwell on them. The Full Moon midday favors being around people, socializing, and expressing feelings. A friendship or romantic matter may be illuminated now, and epiphanies are quite possible. There may be a sudden demand for your company, invitations can come in, a romantic revelation, or an announcement can be made by a friend or lover – even a child. A pleasant feeling of being needed and needing others can be experienced now.

Pisces

Try to find a better balance between home and outside responsibilities, dear Pisces. Difficulties with friends or associates may be affecting your home life, and you don’t need the added stress. Resentments or unresolved problems can have a way of emerging in erratic ways early today. The Moon is Full midday, influencing your public sector. This can bring you into the spotlight, and increases your visibility in general. What you have and haven’t done may seem to be everybody’s business now, and whether you’re feeling comfortable with it or not, put on your best show! Paying closer attention to the rules is important now. It’s another reminder to better manage your time and attention, keeping your personal and professional or public lives separate and neither one left neglected or overdone.

 

Your Weekly Astrology for June 1 – 7

 

Weekly Astrology: June 1 – 7, 2015

Going above and beyond

Maria DeSimoneMaria DeSimone on the topics of venus, full moon, astrology

It’s a week to open your mind, your heart, and your faith! Things are happening on a grand scale now … are you ready?

Tuesday, June 2: Full Moon in Sagittarius

Are you willing to ask the big questions in life, even if you don’t find an answer? That’s the theme of Tuesday’s Full Moon in Sagittarius. Remember that in your life it’s the journey that matters, not the destination. Still, your internal GPS might be slightly confused thanks to this Full Moon being square Neptune and opposite Mercury, now in retrograde. Old belief systems and modes of thinking are likely to come up for review, and it’ll be time to discard what’s no longer working in your reality.

Friday, June 5: Venus enters Leo; Mars in Gemini sextile Jupiter

On Friday, love planet Venus enters Leo. Venus in Leo promises romance on a grand scale so now, you’ll settle for nothing less than lavish expressions of love. Mars will be at a supportive sextile to Jupiter on the same day giving you the ability to put your optimism to work for you. This will definitely be a sexy day!

Saturday, June 6: Venus trine Saturn

On Saturday the tone goes from carefree romance to relationship substance. Venus will trine Saturn and if you’re attached, you’ll feel quite secure in your union. Financially, a cautious gamble looks like it’ll pay off, and a creative gift put into practice can be financially profitable for a long time to come.

Let’s Talk Witch – Getting Those Herbs Gardens Ready, How About Planting By The Moon

Egyptian Comments & GraphicsGetting Those Herbs Gardens Ready, How About Planting By The Moon

A lot of gardeners, even those who aren’t witches, plant and harvest by the phases of the Moon. You can still find old almanacs that list what to plant and when in line with astrological timings. Think how much the Moon affects the sea and her tides, so it must affect the earth and how things grow too.

A Waxing Moon is good for planting. Fruit ready for eating straight away should be picked on a Waxing Moon; a Waning Moon is good for planting plants that fruit below ground such as potatoes. A Waning Moon is also good for pruning, weeding and harvesting food to be stored.

Just after a New Moon plant leafy vegetables and herb seeds.

Waxing Moon gardening activities include potting cuttings, re-pottting house plants and picking herbs, fruit and vegetables for eating straight away.

On a Full Moon plant vegetables such as tomatoes, peppers and onions (any type of ‘watery’ vegetables and fruit). Fertilise your plants on a Full Moon too.
Just after Full Moon plant tuber vegetables such as carrots and potatoes, also biennials and perennials.

On a waning Moon start a compost heap, weed, cut and prune, pick fruits and flowers, herbs and vegetables that will be stored.

Close to the Dark Moon cut timber and spray any fruit trees (preferably with eco friendly spray).

Then you have the categories for the astrological signs; a list of each type of energy is show below, either barren, productive, semi-fruitful or fruitful:

Moon in Aries: Barren
Moon in Taurus: Productive
Moon in Gemini: Barren
Moon in Cancer: Fruitful
Moon in Leo: Barren
Moon in Virgo: Barren
Moon in Libra: Semi fruitful
Moon in Scorpio: Fruitful
Moon in Sagittarius: Barren
Moon in Capricorn: Productive
Moon in Aquarius: Barren
Moon in Pisces: Fruitful

Another useful guide is:

Above Soil-Level Plants: These are the plants that will produce crops above the ground; these should be sown the day after the New Moon up until the first quarter, preferably in a fertile or semi-fertile astrological sign.

Annuals: Plant the day after the New Moon up until the day before the first quarter, preferably in a fertile or semi-fertile astrological sign.

Below Soil-Level Plants: These are the plants that crop under the ground. These should be planted during the day after the Full Moon, preferably in a fertile or semi-fertile astrological sign.

Biennials and Perennials: This category includes shrubs and trees. Begin planting the day after the Full Moon and up to the day before the last quarter preferably in a fertile or semi-fertile astrological sign.

Seed Collection: This is best done at the Full Moon when the Moon is in a fire or air astrological sign such as Aries, Leo, Sagittarius, Libra, Gemini or Aquarius.

Harvesting: Picking fresh flowers and smaller harvests for magical use straight away, can be done in the early evening. If you want to dry and store the flowers and herbs, cut them mid morning, after the dew has evaporated. Fruit and vegetables are best harvested during the Waning Moon and when the Moon is in a barren or semi-barren fire or air sign such as Aries, Leo, Sagittarius, Libra, Gemini or Aquarius.
