The purpose for this is to rid the object of anyone else’s energy who may have handled at some point in
time. Thus it will only have your personal and Universal energies attached to it, making the object totally
yours.

This should also be done if anyone besides you picks up and/or touches the object. It should also be done to a black stone weekly if it has been empowered to collect negative energies to ensure it is always at its peak of power to collect negativity before it gets overloaded and leaks onto and/or into you and.or someone else.

What you will need:

The object to be cleansed

Small bowl of water

Regular table salt without Iodine if possible

Feather

White candle

Small white cloth

How to cleanse any object:

Fill in the blanks with the proper element or object depending on where the blank is in the sentence.

If you are cleansing a stone, crystal, gem, semi-precious gem the wording it change to say for each element, “______ I ask you to remove all energies but mine and the _______.”

Add the salt to the water. place the object in the salt water with your power hand (the hand you write with). Then say three times, ” Earth and Water I ask you to remove all energy but my own from this ______”. Take it out of the salt water with your power hand. WARNING: Some gems and crystals should not be left sitting in any type of water. For those things sparingly sprinkle them with the salt water (Earth/Water Element) on all sides.

Place the object on the white cloth. With your power hand pick up the feather. Wave it over the stone saying three times, “Air I ask you to remove all energy but my own from this _______”. Turn the object over and repeat until all outside surface has been done.

Light the white candle then pick the object up in your power hand. Move the object over the top of the flame (being careful not to burn yourself) saying three times, “Fire I ask you to remove all outside energies from this ________”. Turn the stone over and repeat until all outside surface has been done.. Place the object back on the white cloth and blow out the candle.

The white cloth represents Spirit. While an object is laying on the cloth cover it with part of the cloth. Say over it three times, “Spirit I ask you to remove all energies but my own from this ______.”

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or important decisions from 4:30 PM to 8:15 PM EDT today (1:30 PM to 5:15 PM PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Libra into Scorpio.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Steer clear of ego battles with someone close to you. It’s not worth it. Furthermore, because the Moon is opposite your sign, you have to be cooperative. Therefore, be easy going and laid back. Don’t make a big deal about anything. (For your own peace of mind.)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You might want to introduce reforms to where you work today or you might want to improve your health? You might also have ideas about how to improve how you deal with your pet? Whatever the case, ponder these improvements but don’t be pushy about them.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Parents must be patient with their kids today to avoid a clash of egos or a power struggle. (Naturally, this goes with the territory.) But for the sake of the happiness and peace of mind of everyone – don’t get sucked into this dynamic. Stay chill.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You might have a power struggle with a female family member today, which is not good. It will upset the other person and it will upset you. It might even upset other family members. It’s not worth the aggro. Stay calm and don’t take the bait.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You feel you have to clarify something or convince someone about something because you see a better way of doing things or you know the truth. Nevertheless, this will create an unpleasant exchange. Is it worth it? Think about it.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Money quarrels might arise today. Or perhaps a power struggle will arise related to something that you own. Perhaps someone wants to borrow something? Whatever the case, try not to make a big deal about this. Don’t get your belly in a rash.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Naturally, with the Moon in your sign, you feel more emotional about things. This is why you might have a dustup with a parent or a family member. Feelings are strong! They might create a power struggle. (You need this like a fish needs a bicycle.) Stay chill.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You are convincing with intense power and strong self-discipline, even if you do not see yourself this way. Today in discussions with others, you might want to get your way or insist on being heard. Whatever the case, it could create a dispute. It’s not worth it. Easy does it.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You might go head-to-head with a friend or a member of a group today perhaps about a charitable cause or something related to your own future goals? Whatever the case, it’s not worth creating bad feelings for someone. Try to see the big picture.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Today you might make a public stand about introducing improvements or flexing your muscles in some way because you want to get things done. In one way, this might be important. But in another way, you might antagonize others, especially bosses or parents. Is it worth it?

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Avoid controversial subjects like politics, religion and racial issues today because you will run into a confrontation with someone. And anyhow – there are none so deaf as those who are wearing headphones. You cannot change people’s minds that easily. Relax.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Disputes about shared property, taxes, debt or inheritances might arise today. If so, you might have a nasty encounter with someone. But if you are patient, you can avoid this. Actually, patience is a virtue. Why not welcome this opportunity to practice it?

Friday the 13th Origins, History, Folk Lore

Long considered a harbinger of bad luck, Friday the 13th has inspired a late 19th-century secret society, an early 20th-century novel, a horror film franchise and not one but two unwieldy terms—paraskavedekatriaphobia and friggatriskaidekaphobia—that describe fear of this supposedly unlucky day.

The Fear of 13

Just like walking under a ladder, crossing paths with a black cat or breaking a mirror, many people hold fast to the belief that Friday the 13th brings bad luck. Though it’s uncertain exactly when this particular tradition began, negative superstitions have swirled around the number 13 for centuries.

Friday the 13th: 13 Facts About the Unluckiest Day in the Calendar

Friday the 13th is thought by many to be the unluckiest day in the Gregorian calendar. Here are 13 facts about this day of ill repute.

1. It’s Unclear Why It Is Feared

Very little is known about the origins of the day’s notoriety. Some historians believe that the superstitions surrounding it arose in the late 19th century. The first documented mention of the day can be found in a biography of Italian composer Gioachino Rossini, who died on a Friday the 13th. A 1907 book, Friday the Thirteenth, by American businessman Thomas Lawson, may have further perpetuated the superstition.

Others believe that the myth has Biblical origins. Jesus was crucified on a Friday, and there were 13 guests at the Last Supper the night before his crucifixion.

Another account suggests that the day has been associated with misfortune since 1307 when on a Friday the 13th, the French king gave the orders to arrest hundreds of Knights Templar in France.

2. Yet, the Fear Is Very Real

So real that one scientific name wasn’t enough. The fear of Friday the 13th is also called friggatriskaidekaphobia or paraskevidekatriaphobia. Now say that 10 times really fast!

Friggatriskaidekaphobia comes from Frigg, the Norse goddess of wisdom after whom Friday is named, and the Greek words triskaideka, meaning 13, and phobia, meaning fear. Paraskevidekatriaphobia is also derived from Greek: paraskeví translates as Friday, and dekatria is another way of saying 13.

Rune Meanings And How To Use Rune Stones For Divination

WHAT ARE RUNES?

Rune stones are an ancient proto-Germanic tradition dating back to potentially the 1st century AD. They consist of a runic alphabet of 24 letters, usually made out of wood or stone that were used as a method of fortune-telling and protection sigils. The first completion of the total alphabet was the Elder Futhark runes in the 5th century AD, that are most often used still today, and then the Younger Futhark stones were adapted by the Vikings and other Nordic tribes and continued until Medieval times. They are said to be based off of Old Latin inscriptions. Runes stones are full of powerful and magical history, and so were highly venerated and used with extreme caution. In the Norse cultures and across other Northern Europeans, it was believed that they held strong divinatory powers and as such were taken very seriously.

The origin of word “rune” stems from the Germanic word for “mystery” or “secret”, and similar findings are present in Old Irish Gaelic, Welsh and Old English, sometimes also meaning “miracle”. In Lithuanian it can me “to speak”, and in Finnish it can also mean “poem”.

These days, runes are used as a method of connecting to one’s higher self, inner guidance and tapping into intuition as a method of foretelling what the future may hold and offering advice (similar to Tarot Cards). Read on for our guide to what are the rune meanings and how to use them for yourself!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Today you have to go along to get along. You might have to be of service to someone. You might have to put the needs and wants of someone else before your own. This is no big deal; it’s just how things are unfolding. Health might be a concern today as well.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You might prefer to cocoon at home today and relax among familiar surroundings. Nevertheless, a contrary influence will make you want to talk to others and socialize. You might want to take a short trip. Therefore, it’s your call. You can be on the go – or you can hide at home.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Today you have strong feelings about your conversations with others. You want to establish a warm connection with someone, especially siblings, relatives or neighbours. You want to them to hear you because you’re willing to hear them. You want that bond.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You have financial matters on your mind today. Nevertheless, if you go shopping today, you won’t be thinking about finances, you’ll be thinking about what you want. Today you will make emotional choices rather than logical ones. (Not always wise when spending money.)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Today the Moon is in your sign as it is for 2 1/2 days every month. When this happens, you are a bit more emotional than usual. You feel it. But the good news is that when the Moon is in your sign, your luck is a little bit better! Ask the universe for a favour!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

For some reason, personal details about your private life seem to be in the public sphere. This means people notice you more than usual or they are talking about you. Just be aware of this in case you have to do some damage control.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Because you have a strong desire for a change of scenery today, indulge yourself and do something different. Go someplace you’ve never been before. Travel if possible. Talk to people from different cultures and other countries so that you can learn something new.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Today, you’re interested in finances and shared property. That’s why this is a good day to check out banking details and anything to do with insurance issues, inheritances, taxes and debt. Stay on top of things. When it comes to money, don’t be caught snoozing.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Moon Goddess’ Current Phase

The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a New Moon phase. During this phase the Moon is too close to the sun in the sky to be visible. The moon rises and sets with the sun and is not present in the night sky. Because of this the night sky is darker and an excellent time to view other celestial objects. Like the Full Moon, a New Moon happens at a very specific time when the sun and moon have the same ecliptic longitude and it can be measured down to the second it occurs.

Visit the August 2021 Moon Phases Calendar to see all the daily moon phase for this month.

Today’s New Moon Phase

The New Moon on August 8 has an illumination of 0%. This is the percentage of the Moon illuminated by the Sun. The illumination is constantly changing and can vary up to 10% a day.

As curious as this might sound, you could find it difficult to conceal your feelings from others today. You might be wearing your heart on your sleeve. You will also feel more protective and nurturing, especially to children. Nevertheless, it’s a fun-loving day.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Today you want to cocoon at home and enjoy your privacy, especially among familiar surroundings. Actually, it’s an excellent day to be introspective, especially because childhood memories might bubble to the surface of your money. (You feel sentimental.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

In conversation with others today, you feel a strong need for a real connection with someone. You want to bond. You want a meaningful discussion. You don’t want to waste time on superficial chitchat. A female relative might play an important role.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Today it’s easy to emotionally identify with your possessions and what you own. Because of this, you will be less willing to lend something to someone or let someone use what you own. (“My precious!”) Be careful shopping because of ego purchases.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

The Moon is in your sign for the next two days, which will make you more emotional than usual. Your feelings will be heightened. (This could obscure your objectivity.) The good news is it can also slightly boost your good luck! Bonus!

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Today you might want to withdraw and find a private cubbyhole to enjoy your own solitude because you don’t feel like socializing. This is not because you are being antisocial. You just need a breather. This is also a good day to explore any kind of mystical or spiritual discipline that might interest you.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Your emotional connection with your friends will be important to you today. This is why you might feel more protective or supportive with someone. It’s also why you might even feel jealous if a friend pays more attention someone else. (We’ve all been there.)

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Today your personal life might be on public display for some reason or you might find it difficult to hide certain facts about yourself. (Avoid public arguments in elevators.) Note: You might blur the distinction between professional and personal when talking to a boss or someone in authority.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a pleasant day for you because the Moon is in your fellow Fire Sign. Basically, this will urge you to explore new ideas, see new places and meet new faces. You want to do whatever you can to expand your world, especially through travel and learning. You want to crank things up.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Financial matters, especially regarding shared property or something to do with taxes, debt and insurance issues are on your mind today. You might also be dealing with wills, estates and inheritances. Tie up loose ends in these areas to give you more peace of mind.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Today the Moon is in a sign that is directly opposite from your sign. This means you have to be cooperative, tolerant and prepared to go more than halfway when you’re dealing with others. This is not hard to do – but be aware of this.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Today you might have to put your own emotional considerations second to the considerations of someone else. This does not mean that you are being a martyr, it simply means that you are reading the situation correctly. This is how things are unfolding today. Simple.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Charlize Theron (1975) shares your birthday today. You are hard-working, ambitious and determined. You look confident and self-assured to others regardless of how you feel inside.

Moon Goddess’ Current Phase

Today the Moon will be in a Waning Crescent phase. In this phase the Moon’s illumination is growing smaller each day until the New Moon. During this part of the Moon cycle, the Moon is getting closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing the Earth with only a small edge of the Moon being illuminated. This phase is best viewed an hour or 2 before the sunrise and can be quite beautiful if you’re willing to get up early. It can also be a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the edge where the illuminated portion meets the dark side, the craters and mountains cast long shadows making them easier to observe with a telescope or binoculars.

Visit the August 2021 Moon Phases Calendar to see all the daily moon phase for this month.

Today’s Waning Crescent Phase

The Waning Crescent on August 7 has an illumination of 1%. This is the percentage of the Moon illuminated by the Sun. The illumination is constantly changing and can vary up to 10% a day. On August 7 the Moon is 28.48 days old. This refers to how many days it has been since the last New Moon. It takes 29.53 days for the Moon to orbit the Earth and go through the lunar cycle of all 8 Moon phases.

Nighttime vs Daytime When Working Spells

Merry Meet :)))

I’ve been giving you lots of spells to work with lately. We know to work with the moons cycles when casting spells, and how the the planetary alignment can influence the energy that we raise. Another point on casting spells is the time of day that you cast it. So today I wanted to delve into that a bit with all of you for those of you who may not be familiar, as casting spells during the appropriate time of day can help contribute to the effectiveness of your spell as well.

Nighttime: As the Moon is out at night, nighttime energy is more feminine in nature. It’s a time when the veil between the worlds is the thinnest. Spells worked at night should be more personal and emotional in nature. You are appealing to the Mother Goddess. 🙂 An example of a spell during this time would be one to connect with the Goddess, spells to do with love, relationships, etc. Midnight would be the most powerful time to cast these types of spells.

Daytime: Since the Sun is out during the day, the energy would be more masculine during this time. This time is better spells that are more active and energetic, may require strength or aggressiveness. Some examples of spells to work during the daytime would be ones that pertain to business, money, motivation or groups. High Noon would be the best time to cast these types of spells.

Magickal timing: Choosing the right day of the week for your spell

Planetary magick is a complex system which blends astrology, ancient cosmology, and celestial intelligences in an attempt to bring the most effective results. In this article, we’ll discuss the planetary rulers of the seven days of the week, and the best day to perform different types of magick.

Planetary magic can seem cumbersome, especially to Witches more accustomed to elemental (Earth) magic.  But you don’t have to spend hours drafting talismans or poring over charts to add some planetary flavor to your spellwork. Using a very simple overview of magickal timing, you can make sure your working is aligned with the appropriate planetary ruler.

The idea of planetary rulership (and the 7-day week) dates all the way back to Chaldean (Babylonian) astrology.  They assigned a planet to rule each day, and further divided the day into planetary hours.  Later, the Greek and Roman civilizations adapted the Babylonian calender for their use.  Planetary magic was re-discovered by the medieval magicians, who looked to the Classical world for inspiration.  The tradition of using different days for different types of magic was put forth in the 16th-century Key of Solomon, a foundational text of the Western magical tradition.

Engaging All Five Senses in Spellwork

Spellwork is the practice of bringing the possible into reality whether the spells are for better health, a new job, or tastier garden tomatoes. All of these goals, and most others, work on the principle that the worker uses their own will to shape reality, and because of this, the worker uses their own will to shape reality, and because of this, the worker must be able to form a clear picture of the intended outcome. You can’t create what you can’t imagine so the more clearly the goal is identified, the more likely the desired outcome. Engaging all of our senses in spellwork can help us define that goal and give it aspects that appeal to our need to interact with something to prove to ourselves it is real. Additionally, sometimes we need to define goals that aren’t concrete, but rather involve abstractions such as emotions and memories. Such goals can be hard to represent, but by using our other senses, we can find representation for them, and manifest even the most abstract goals into reality.

 

While visualization is a much praised and important part of spellwork, each of our four other senses has the potential to connect us to our spellwork in deeper and more intense ways. Human beings are primarily visual creatures, but that does not mean that the visual sense is the strongest for everyone. Nor does it mean that our other senses have less to offer. Many of us already use cues for our other senses in ritual; a drumbeat or music in the background, incense in the Air, cakes and ale. However, we don’t always bring these elements into the spellwork itself. We can use smells, tastes, sounds, and textures in spellcraft to create a deeper link with the magick as well as a more complete representation of the desired result.

 

For instance, smells provide a powerful trigger for memory and emotion. As an example, you can improve a spell to relieve insomnia by using the smell of fresh linen, applying the scent to a small sachet tucked into your pillow. The scent becomes another part of the spell whether it’s the use of baby powder in a sachet meant to aid in fertility or using a vial of oil as the focus for a calm flying spell.

 

We can also use scents to bring a spell to mind again after the casting, strengthening the magick or its effect on you. Additionally, spells that you can taste can have a huge impact on the body, and make a great vehicle for workings such as health spells or other purposes involving the body. The sense of touch plays a large role in our interaction with others, but is also the medium through which we interact with and manipulate the world. When we think of something as material, we think of being able to touch it; therefore, giving a texture and feel to the goals of our spellwork lends a quality of realism that brings them closer to manifestation.

 

Smell

Taste and smell are closely linked, but they do have different aspects. Smell is very portable, something you can wear to continually remind yourself of your spellwork. Spells for courage, confidence, and other emotion-linked outcomes can be kept close, and when something is worn on your skin, it becomes a part of you. A vial of oil used as the focus for a calming spell can be a great way to get through a long flight, and the scents we use in our home can be integrated into protection and cleansing spells for when the place needs a quick touch-up.

 

However, you can also use scents to evoke memory and, through that memory, the results you wish to attain. Drawing on memories of a loved ones, for example, can strengthen spells for that person, aid in contacting a loved one who has passed on, or help you access emotions tied to those memories. Emotions can be particularly hard to define in spellwork, but the way a result make us feel can be an important aspect of the working. In this way, finding the right scent to produce that emotion can make your goal more solid, bringing it just a little further into reality.

 

Taste

While made up largely of smell, taste has different useful properties— just ask any kitchen witch. For instance, it can provide a particularly useful vehicle for health spells, either through using food as a focus for your spell and then using that food to season others, or by ingesting edible oils or foods during the spell itself. We often speak of things so close we can almost taste them, and this literally allows us to give a taste to our desired results by linking them to something we can experience through our senses. For instance, a spell integrated into your favorite vinaigrette can turn your lunchtime salad into a working to help lower your blood pressure. The taste becomes associated with the spell itself, and each time you taste it, you refresh the spell’s influence.

 

Tastes can also conjure up feelings of home and comfort and family. After a bad day, some tastes have the power to comfort us, or pick up our mood. You can tap into this natural power with magic, or use it to strengthen your magic.

 

Hearing

 

 

We readily acknowledge that our sense of hearing has power over us, but we often don’t realize how much. A drumbeat simulating an increasing heart rate can create feelings of tension and anxiety, while we all find certain music soothing or energizing. We can use this effect on our emotions in spellwork as a means of representing our goals, both concrete and abstract. A spell to calm anxiety, for example, may incorporate a drumbeat with an increasing cadence, which you then incrementally slow. Not only does it replicate the results that you’re looking to be able to reproduce, but it pulls them from potential into reality.

 

You can also play the sounds back later, helping to remind you of the spell and its intended effects. Moreover, linking the spell and the sound makes the sound a part of the spell . Every time you listen to the sound, it triggers the same process and the results are now something you can hear and with which you can interact.

 

Additionally, using sounds in rituals can take on many forms, from music that encompasses the emotional message you wish to create to simple sound effects that simulate your reaction to the desired result.

 

Touch

 

Despite being the one we most use to interact with the world, touch is perhaps the most underrated sense. In the material world, we use it to manipulate objects, to create desired results, much as spellworkers use their wills to create magical results. For this reason, touch can be a tremendous help to spellwork , though it may require stepping outside of our general perceptions in order to use it effectively. Having a book in one’s hands feels a certain way, and you would recognize a book in your hands even if you couldn’t see it . In the same way, we can use our sense of touch to give texture, depth, and solidity to our spells. Often, we judge more real that which we can touch. Giving texture to our workings, and the results for which we’re aiming, creates in us a sense of realism that establishes it firmly in our minds as real, material, touchable.

 

While you can use any texture, it is best to use as a focus or a material something that reminds you of the goal. You probably wouldn’t use rough burlap for a sleep sachet or fragile cotton to represent protective armor . It’s also important to be inventive when it comes to touch. Water has a feel all its own when you submerge your fingertips in it, and the feel of still water is completely different to that of moving water, but both lend reality to a working and create a certain feeling within us.

 

Sight

While I have been touting the use of other senses, visualization remains a very important part of spellwork. Being able to visualize a result brings it closer to reality, but augmenting that with information for your other senses completes the experience, making it more than just a picture. If you can represent the emotional content with sound or touch or smell, if you can create a complete an in-depth representation of your result, you are much closer to reaching that goal.

 

Even if you can’t create a perfect image in your mind, the other senses can help fill in the blanks left by visualization. Smells, sounds, and textures allow you to expand that picture, and the more real you make it, the more real it is.

 

—————–

 

When all five senses are engaged in our spellwork, we are taking steps toward bringing our goal a deeper sense of reality. While different senses may be more or less suited to different types of spells, all spells benefit from this added realism. When we can vividly imagine our results in detail, they are already closer to being manifest . Using each of our senses, and finding ways to combine them, can make our spellwork more powerful, add depth to the representations of our goals, and add power to our workings. Combining hearing, smell, taste, and touch with sight allows us to imagine it in greater detail and to put more power behind it.

Moon Goddess’ Current Phase

Tomorrow the Moon will be in a Waning Crescent phase. In this phase the Moon’s illumination is growing smaller each day until the New Moon. During this part of the Moon cycle, the Moon is getting closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing the Earth with only a small edge of the Moon being illuminated. This phase is best viewed an hour or 2 before the sunrise and can be quite beautiful if you’re willing to get up early. It can also be a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the edge where the illuminated portion meets the dark side, the craters and mountains cast long shadows making them easier to observe with a telescope or binoculars.

Visit the August 2021 Moon Phases Calendar to see all the daily moon phase for this month.

Today’s Waning Crescent Phase

The Waning Crescent on August 6 has an illumination of 4%. This is the percentage of the Moon illuminated by the Sun. The illumination is constantly changing and can vary up to 10% a day. On August 6 the Moon is 27.53 days old. This refers to how many days it has been since the last New Moon. It takes 29.53 days for the Moon to orbit the Earth and go through the lunar cycle of all 8 Moon phases.

Why Do Witches Ride Brooms? The History Behind the Legend

From pagan fertility rituals to hallucinogenic herbs, the story of witches and brooms is a wild ride.

The evil green-skinned witch flying on her magic broomstick may be a Halloween icon—and a well-worn stereotype. But the actual history behind how witches came to be associated with such an everyday household object is anything but dull.

It’s not clear exactly when the broom itself was first invented, but the act of sweeping goes back to ancient times, when people likely used bunches of thin sticks, reeds and other natural fibers to sweep aside dust or ash from a fire or hearth. As J. Bryan Lowder writes, this household task even shows up in the New Testament, which dates to the first and second centuries A.D.

The word broom comes from the actual plant, or shrub, that was used to make many early sweeping devices. It gradually replaced the Old English word besom, though both terms appear to have been used until at least the 18th century. From the beginning, brooms and besoms were associated primarily with women, and this ubiquitous household object became a powerful symbol of female domesticity.

Despite this, the first witch to confess to riding a broom or besom was a man: Guillaume Edelin. Edelin was a priest from Saint-Germain-en-Laye, near Paris. He was arrested in 1453 and tried for witchcraft after publicly criticizing the church’s warnings about witches. His confession came under torture, and he eventually repented, but was still imprisoned for life.

August 5th Daily Correspondences Digest

Daily Horoscope

Moon Alert

There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The Moon is in Cancer.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Today is the perfect day to cocoon at home or relax with family members. A discussion with a female family member might be significant for both of you. However, you might want to “hide” in comfortable, familiar surroundings. Your choice.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

In discussion with others today, you want a genuine connection with whomever you are talking to. This means you will be disappointed if the conversation remains at a superficial, chitchat level. You want a real exchange. Something meaningful.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Financial matters are on your mind today, which is why this could be a tricky day if you are shopping. You might make purchases based on emotional decisions rather than practical decisions. The best way to protect yourself is to save your receipts – and the box.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Today the Moon is still in your sign, which makes you more emotional than usual. However, it also increases your good luck just a tiny bit. (And as we all know, every little bit helps!) Therefore, ask the universe for a favour today. See what happens?

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

With the Sun and Mercury in your sign now, you are powerful and busy relating to others. However, today you have a chance to seek some solitude and escape from the busyness around you, if you choose to do so. Welcome any opportunity to take time to replenish and restore yourself – even briefly.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This is a good day to have a heart-to-heart talk with someone, perhaps a female acquaintance. It might benefit you to share your hopes and dreams for the future with this person because quite possibly, their feedback will help you. Who knows? Try it.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Once again, today the Moon is sitting at the very top of your chart, which seems to put you in the public eye. In other words, at some point, people will notice you more than usual and they will be talking about you. (You might need to do some damage control.)

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Because you feel a bit restless today and eager for adventure, give yourself a chance to explore something new. Do something different! Go someplace you have never been before. Obviously, travel will appeal. But you will also be interested to learn new things and meet unusual people.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Although you have a desire to travel and “get away from all this”, today you cannot ignore certain details regarding shared property, taxes, debt, insurance matters or something to do with inheritances. Whatever calls to you – address it and get some of this done.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Because the Moon is in the sign that is 180 degrees opposite from your sign, this means the best way for you to handle this is to be ready to go more than halfway when dealing with others. In other words, you have to cooperate and be supportive. No biggie.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Very possibly, you will have to perform a service for someone else today or help them in some way. You might also be more involved than usual with a pet. At work, you might find that a coworker wants to confide in you or that they need your help.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You’re in a playful frame of mind today, which is why you will enjoy fun activities with children, the arts or any kind of mental, intellectual games. You will also be attracted to sports events and the entertainment world. “Bring it on!”

If Your Birthday Is Today

Director, writer, actor James Gunn (1966) shares your birthday today. You are a natural leader and excellent at managing and directing others. Ever adventurous, you are self-assured and diplomatic, which is why others listen to you. You have humanitarian values at heart. In a nine-year cycle, this is your ninth year, which means it is a time of endings and letting go of what is no longer really relevant in your life.

Birthday Horoscope Zodiac Sign Is Leo

AUGUST 5 birthday horoscope predicts that you are a Leo who is ordinarily well thought of, hard-working and authoritative. You are a versatile Lion and can be good at many things. You can be a master in whatever you put your mind to.

The Lion born on this birthday is likely to be independent and stubborn however open-minded. You tend to “walk the talk.” You take this attitude at work and home.

The August 5 birthday personality shows you to be emotionally strong. You give strength to others as you are certainly a magnetic individual. There is a great generosity that Karma seems to kick back at you.

As a Leo birthday person, you are a hard and trusting worker. People seem to want to know what you think and what you are doing. Although you are not ashamed, you are a private person.

According to the August 5th horoscope, in situations that are tedious, you are likely to delegate authority. Sometimes, you are proud of your small accomplishments but only as a means to show that you are part of a team. More often than not, you will find this Leo as a leader. You’re not a mean person and will make a confident boss or employer.

The August 5 zodiac characteristics show you to be easy-going people and normally, it is challenging to upset you. Your nature is that of a calm and soothing Lion, but if forced to defend your good name and peace of mind, you should be warned that this Lion is not to be taken lightly. Characteristically, you stay to yourself.

The August 5th birthday analysis also says that you prefer your significant other to be as intelligent and loyal as yourselves. However, Leo’s ideal of the perfect person could be highly improbable.

Leo as a mother would be practical but lenient. In love, you are conventional and sometimes, selfish. Nonetheless, you can be passive, sensitive, affectionate and inspiring. Alternatively, you can be influenced by others. It is wise to keep like-minded and positive individuals on your list of contacts.

The August 5 birthday meanings suggest that those born on this day have enormous energy and are strong-minded individuals. The character of a Leo is impeccable in the business world. As a boss, you have a tendency to be qualified with unmatchable skills. You are likely to be very successful in any career of your choice.

If today is your birthday, you even are talented in the areas of performing arts. At the end of the day, Leo, you are very capable of being financially comfortable. When it comes down to your money and spending it, you can make nothing into something.

Your ability to mix and match is bestowed in your home as a contemporary decorated dwelling using ordinary household items. A coke bottle has more uses than one after the drink is gone.

The August 5 astrology predictions show that you have a propensity to suffer from heart-related illnesses. Typically, Leo natives should guard against stress, smoking and eat greasy foods. These things are likely to affect parts of your body necessary for proper blood flow. It is suggested that a person born on this day get regular check-ups, exercise regularly and eat wholesome and balanced meals.

As an August 5th birthday personality, you are respected, unprejudiced and self-supporting. You are a strong and giving Lion although territorial and private. You like to keep your personal and professional spaces separate.

Usually, you are calm and will take a lot before exploding, but once you do, it’s not very pretty. Your giving nature only keeps replenishing your stock. There is a lot to be said for charitable work as you are a spiritual believer.

Moon Phase calendar for the current month of August 2021

 

This calendar shows the Moon Phase for every day in the current month of August 2021. The first day starts with a Waning Crescent phase that is 36.6% illuminated. Explore this August Moon Phase Calendar by clicking on each day to see detailed information on that days phase. Also see more information about the Full Moon and New Moon in August 2021 including local viewing times.

UNDERSTANDING MOON PHASES

Let’s start with some interesting facts. It takes the Moon 29.53 days to orbit completely around the Earth in a full lunar cycle. During this time, the Moon will go through each phase. Since the Moon’s orbital journey takes a little less than a full month, when you click on future dates you’ll notice that–depending on the exact number of days in that month–the Full Moon occurs a day or two earlier each month.

It’s the Moon’s journey as it orbits around Earth that creates the predictable dance between light and shadow. And while the changes may seem slow, on any given day the amount of Moon illuminated by the Sun can vary by as much as 10-percent. The illustration above shows the range of illumination for today – August 04, 2021. The illustration is set to your computer’s clock and therefore gives you an accurate reading for your own particular time zone.

The four main Moon phases in order are the New Moon, First Quarter Moon, Full Moon and Last Quarter Moon. These phases occur at very specific times and are measured by both the Moon’s luminosity and how far along the Moon is in its orbit around Earth.

The New Moon Phase occurs when the Moon is completely dark with zero-percent luminosity, while the Full Moon Phase is completely bright with 100-percent luminosity. The First and Last Quarter phases happen when the Moon is exactly half illuminated, with 50-percent luminosity. When people say “today is a Full Moon” it’s important to remember that doesn’t mean the Moon is full all day long, only that the Full Moon Phase occurs on this day. In reality, the exact moment of the Full Moon can be timed to the second. To learn more about the exact time of the Full Moon and the current Full Moon info, check out these Current Full Moon times.

The remaining four Moon phases occur at halfway points between the main phases. Unlike the main phases, these minor phases don’t happen at a specific time or luminosity, rather they describe the Moon’s phase for the entire time period between each main phase. These interim phases are Waxing Crescent Moon, Waxing Gibbous Moon, Waning Gibbous Moon and Waning Crescent Moon. The illustration below shows all eight main and minor Moon phases and where they occur in the lunar cycle.

MOON PHASES IN HISTORY

Imagine a Neanderthal peering out of his cave some dark summer night as the Full Moon rises above the horizon. Nothing on Earth was quite like this strange brilliant object arcing through the night sky. What did he think it was? It’s not hard to imagine how the Moon became the source of many religions, myths and legends throughout the ages.

The Greeks were among the first to take a scientific look at the Moon and her phases. Around 500 BC Greek philosopher and astronomer Pythagoras carefully observed the narrow boundary line—the terminator—between the dark and light hemispheres of the Moon. Based on how the terminator curved across the surface of the Moon, he correctly surmised the Moon must be a sphere.

moon giants

A few centuries later, around 350 BC, Aristotle took Pythagoras observations even further. By observing the shadow of the Earth across the face of the Moon during a lunar eclipse, Aristotle reckoned that the Earth was also a sphere. He reasoned, incorrectly however, that the Earth was fixed in space and that the Moon, Sun and Stars revolved around it. He also believed the Moon was a translucent sphere that traveled in a perfect orbit around Earth.

It wasn’t until the 16th century that our understanding of the Solar System evolved. In the early 1500s Astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus developed a model of the Solar System where Earth and the other planets orbited around the Sun, and the Moon orbited around Earth. One hundred years later Italian Astronomer Galileo used one of the first telescopes to observe the terminator and deduced from the uneven shadows of the Waning Crescent Phase that the Moon’s surface was pocked with craters and valleys and ridged with mountains.

These observations were revolutionary. Copernicus and Galileo upended the long-held Aristotelian view of the heavens as a place where Earth was the center of the Universe and the Moon was a smooth, polished orb. Telescopes and new minds helped scientist understand that the Earth and planets orbited around the Sun and the Moon was a battered and cratered satellite held in our own orbit.

Little Pagan Acorns – Website for Pagan Children

[Not just for Pagan children that are homeschooled but for any Pagan child)

WHY PAGAN?

The world of homeschooling is dominated by Christians, and the majority of online resources are Bible-based. For someone who is Pagan, it gets pretty frustrating to find great printables that aren’t filled with Bible scriptures or Christian phrasing. So I wanted to create a resource for all of us who are parents and/or homeschoolers who are following other spiritual paths.

My purpose is to create pages that can be mixed in with other resources to add some Pagan terminology, ideals and history so that people can teach their children something that is uniquely Pagan.

I also intend to have selections of nature-based and generically “spiritual” material that could be used by folks who aren’t really Pagan but want an option away from the Christian materials as well.

I know that the term “Pagan” covers a huge range of faiths and beliefs, and I hope that I can properly respect them all here. My own path is more Wiccan and you’ll tend to see more material along that slant (lots of altars, Sabbats and pentacles!). I’d welcome any comments or suggestions from other beliefs so that I can accurately cover them. I apologize in advance if I have included anything that is inaccurate about other religions. Feel free to let me know.

So, welcome to Little Pagan Acorns and I hope that there is something here to help with your Pagan homeschooling and parenting!
