Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or important decisions from 11:45 AM to 12:30 PM EDT today (8:45 AM to 9:30 AM PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Virgo into Libra.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Be patient this morning because people are short tempered, including you. Your day will work best if you decide to cooperate with others and even go more than half way. (Why not?) Then it will be a win-win for everyone.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Parents need to be patient with kids this morning. Remember that how a day begins can affect the whole day. You might see ways to improve your health today, and also how to improve your job, or discover better ways of doing something. Yay!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This morning you might feel angry with a family member. It’s brief but it’s there. Keep the peace because emotional outbursts won’t help you today. Instead, plan social outings, fun times with kids. Look for ways to express your creativity!

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Hold your tongue this morning to avoid arguments, which will upset everyone, including you. Instead, focus on making where you live more attractive. Create a quiet moment for yourself. A brief walk. A private cup of coffee. Give yourself this small gift.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You might be annoyed about financial matters or a poor purchase this morning. Let it go. Instead, focus on creative ways to improve your immediate surroundings because you can do this. Talk to someone today because spit-balling your ideas could lead to clever results.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

As this day begins, both the Sun and the Moon are in your sign, which might make you more emotional. Don’t bark at someone. Take it easy. Instead look for new uses for something you own or a way to make money on the side or with a new job. Clever you!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

People are touchy this morning, so tread carefully. For most of this day, the Moon is in your sign, making you more emotional than usual. However, when this happens (for 2 1/2 days each month) it improves your luck! Ask the universe for a favour.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Be patient with others this morning because essentially, with the Sun in your House of Friendships right now, you’re enjoying the emotional support of warm exchanges with others, especially with groups. Dismiss whatever is irksome as a temporary. Enjoy some privacy today.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Resist the urge to say something you might later regret when talking to bosses, parents and the police today. Zip thy lip. Later in the day, a friend might encourage you to pursue a goal or inspire you to do something. (You never know where your next bright idea will pop up.)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Avoid controversial subjects this morning because they could become emotionally heated. In fact, for most of this day, you are high viz., which means people notice you more than usual. Be smart and use this to your advantage. Instead, focus on how to improve your job or your health because this is doable!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Don’t get your belly in a rash this morning about arguments over shared property or shared responsibilities. Move on. Do something different today to shake up your routine because this is what will please you most. Talk to new people. Go someplace different. Look for little “adventures” to lift your spirits.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Ignore irritations with others this morning because these are brief. Actually, this can be a productive day for you! You might sort out red-tape issues about shared property, taxes and debt. You also have a growing desire to play, socialize and enjoy sports. Focus on pleasure.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Wes Bentley (1978) shares your birthday today. You love to plan for the future and create designs and systems. You make lists. You’re a careful thinker. Lucky you! This is a fun-loving social year! Express your creative talents. Let your hair down and enjoy fun times with others. Old friends might reappear once again.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You are going to struggle a bit with day to day chores today and you might not understand why this is happening.

And this time you are going to be so intuitive that you are going to try and search for answers in your emotional state. But what it is funny enough is that your lack of focus is more of a caprice of the stars than something you are responsible for.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

The stars are trying to stir the ambition in you and for sure you won’t need too much before you are fully awakened.

At the same time you are trying to use all your attributes to gain more influence and to have more people actually listen to you and follow your lead. It’s going to be an interesting day this one when you’ll feel the power running through your veins.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Creativity is going to kick in and you are probably going to feel very inspired and in a productive mood.

Unfortunately this might also nurture some conflict and people will not really understand you and where you are coming from with all those ideas and it will probably be hard for you to have them keep the same pace with you.

You can also read this special Gemini Daily Horoscope.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You will want to keep things light if you don’t want your friends to believe you are stressing too much and even make fun of you.

And although for now it might seems stupid to even think of that, you will see that as you get closer to the moment, you will understand that today, you actually care a lot about what others are thinking.

You can also read this special Cancer Daily Horoscope.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You are trying to appear cool and detached from all the things that are going around you and that have nothing to do with you.

But it seems that this is not really an image to suit you well and people are going to gossip more on this than they would on you being involved in something that is not actually your business to begin with. You see, you can’t please everyone.

You can also read this special Leo Daily Horoscope.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Given the current disposition, you are more focused on how you look than on how you feel and you risk overlooking some things that will eventually be important for you and that you will end up regretting sooner or later.

So try to remain in touch with your spiritual side also and not neglect that either. Your taste is good but your emotions need monitoring.

You can also read this special Virgo Daily Horoscope.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Although some of those close to you might say you need to revise some things in your behavior, you keep going ahead and saying there’s nothing wrong with the way you react, even in day to day situations.

Maybe you should take a while to investigate why it is they are say what they are saying and whether that is true in any way.

You can also read this special Libra Daily Horoscope.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

The only person you need to please this Wednesday should be yourself and you need to keep this in mind when you are going to end up in a situation where you are trying to be more than yourself for someone you aren’t even sure will return the favor when time be.

Other than that, quite an uneventful day ahead of you.

You can also read this special Scorpio Daily Horoscope.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

An auspicious day for all those ready to size the opportunity but quite a boring one for those who are still dwelling into old means and their comfort zone.

You might be required to work extra and even give up some of your personal plans for this but the likeliness is that it is going to be worth it and that the reward will eventually come.

You can also read this special Sagittarius Daily Horoscope.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You might want to look more at what others are doing rather than at what they are saying, especially if we are referring to what they are literally saying and not things that are in writing.

But even with written things you can’t be sure of the outcome so the advice for you is to monitor anything you are really interested in closely.

You can also read this special Capricorn Daily Horoscope.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You don’t want to sabotage yourself and therefore you might want to be very careful with what you are saying today and especially to whom.

It’s important that you don’t overstep the line because although at the moment this won’t be very felt, you will later discover that it will eventually have an effect, perhaps at a very wrong time.

You can also read this special Aquarius Daily Horoscope.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Be careful what you wish for because it might even come true and then you will kind of be disappointed by what you are getting in respect to what you paid.

You are very ambitious these days but maybe you are not entirely focusing your ambition on the right place and maybe you need to be more reflective than competitive.

The Origins and Practice of Witchcraft c.2018

The Origins and Practice of Witchcraft

A History Of Witchcraft
Witchcraft probably originated about 25,000 years ago in the Palaeolithic era. At that time, humankind and nature were seen as inextricably linked. People acknowledged every rock, tree and stream as deities in the life force, and the Earth as mother, offering both womb and tomb.
Prehistoric Witchcraft
Early man used sympathetic, or attracting, magick – in the form of dances, chants and cave paintings of animals – to attract the herds of animals that provided for the needs of the group, and to bring fertility to humans and animals alike. Hunters would re-enact the successful outcome of a hunt and would carry these energies into the everyday world. Offerings were made to the Mistress of the Herds and later to the Horned God, who was depicted wearing horns or antlers to display his sovereignty over the herds. Animal bones would be buried so that they, like humankind, would enjoy rebirth from the Earth Mother’s womb.
Where hunter-gatherers today continue the unbroken tradition that stretches back thousands of years – for example, among the Lapps in the far North of Scandinavia and the Inuits – these rites continue, led by a shaman, or magick man, who negotiates with the Mistress of the Herds or Fish in a trance for the release of the animals.
One of the earliest recorded examples of shamanism is the Dancing Sorcerer. Painted in black on the cave walls of Les Trois Freres in the French Pyrenees, this shamanic figure, which portrays a man in animal skins, dates from about 14000 BC and stands high above the animals that are depicted on the lower walls. Only his feet are human and he possesses the large, round eyes of an owl, the antlers and ears of a stag, the front paws of a lion or bear, the genitals of a wild cat and the tail of a horse or wolf.
By the Neolithic period, which began around 7500 BC and lasted until about 5500 BC, the hunter-gatherer culture had given way to the development of agriculture, and the god evolved into the son-consort of the Earth Mother. He was the god of vegetation, corn, winter and death, who offered himself as a sacrifice each year with the cutting down of the corn, and was reborn at the mid-winter solstice, as the Sun God.
The Neolithic period also saw the development of shrines to the Triple Goddess who became associated with the three phases of the Moon: waxing, full and waning. The Moon provided one of the earliest ways by which people calculated time. Since its cycles coincided with the female menstrual cycle, which ceased for nine moons if a women was pregnant, the Moon became linked with the mysteries first of birth, then of death as it waned, and finally with new life on the crescent. Because the Moon was reborn each month or, as it was thought, gave birth to her daughter each month, it was assumed that human existence followed the same pattern and that the full moon mirrored the mother with her womb full with child.
The full moon was also associated in later ages with romance and passion, originally because this coincided with peak female fertility. Moon magick for the increase of love and fertility is still practised under the auspices of the waxing moon. It was not until about 3,000 years ago that the male role in conception was fully understood in the West, and only then were the Sky Father deities able to usurp the mysteries of the Divine Mother.
A trinity of huge, carved stone goddesses, representing the three main cycles of the Moon, and dating from between 13000 and 11000 BC, was found in France in a cave at the Abri du Roc aux Sorciers at Angles-sur-l’Anglin. This motif continued right through to the Triple Goddess of the Celts, reflecting the lunar cycles as maiden, mother and crone, an image that also appeared throughout the classical world.

Spell for Tuesday – Cold Fire (Spell to Decrease a Fever) – For Advanced Witchcraft Practitioners

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY)

Cold Fire (Spell to Decrease a Fever)

“A doctor discovered that I could bring fevers down. It takes a little practice, but I’ll bet most natural witches can do it. Use the Cornish invocation to St. Brigt:

Three ladies came from the East

One with fire and two with frost

Out with thee, fire, and in with thee, frost

This can be used in conjunction with a laying-on of hands. To remove a fever from someone, summon energy like cold fire from your body. I usually do this by invoking the Snow Queen, who was always a goddess to me.

Direct energy into your hands, then lay them on the person’s neck or forehead. Make cold fire flow into the person until you feel it confront the fever. When you feel the fever, set up a second channel to draw it into your own body. It maybe easiest for you to use your receptive hand to draw the fever, the other to deliver the cold fire. Do this until you feel the cold fire has overcome the fever. If the person is shivering with the fever, direct heat out of the body and onto the skin while you fight the fever. It may help to wrap your arms around the subject.

This technique is not a substitute for aspirin or other fever-reducers. It is something you can do while waiting for the medication to kick in. It can also be used in an emergency when there is no medication. You may feel a bit flushed for a while afterward, but you will not actually take on the fever. Fevers are cyclical, so you may need to repeat the spell whenever the fever spikes.”

This spell is from The Wicca Handbook2000, 2008

by Eileen Holland Pages 91 and 92.

Review of this spell by Lady Beltane: I have even used this spell on myself. I sit in the Lotus position with my right hand on my neck and my left hand on the floor, sending tendrils down into Mother Earth to take the energy and heat from my fever. I have used this on almost all of my 9 grandchildren while waiting for a fever-reducer to start working. I was amazed each time their fever lower or disappeared! I am also able to use pictures to do hands on healing through, but this spell does its best work if the person is there with you.

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.

Moon Alert

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

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Despite that back-to-school feeling, it’s hard to return to the grind today. People are not enthusiastic, including you. Do what you can but cut yourself and others some slack. Summer is over and it takes a while to crank to a new speed. Easy does it.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You can’t ignore your responsibilities with children today, that’s for sure. Nevertheless, the wheels are a bit rusty and it’s hard to get things going again. Don’t be judgmental of others. Be patient with them – and yourself. (Maybe you can play hooky today?)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Although Mars is in your sign lined up with Jupiter, which boosts your energy; nevertheless, Mars is also at odds with Neptune, which means you are robbed of this energy. (Whaat?) Like putting bread in water. Therefore, take it easy. Don’t make a big deal about anything.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Because you might have expectations, if things don’t go well and you don’t have the energy to follow through, your disappointment might come out as criticism of others. Lighten up! Today everyone has heavy feet. It’s just what it is. Take it easy.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Lower your standards a bit today. We all have that back-to-school feeling, which means we want to be shipshape, and do things right, and be efficient and get a lot done to get back in the game. However, people are tired today. It’s that simple. Easy does it.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Even though this is a powerful day because the Moon and the Sun are in your sign; furthermore, Mars and Jupiter are lined up at the top of your chart – nevertheless, something is taking the wind out of your sails today. Don’t worry about it. Regroup another day.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Don’t be hard on yourself because today, it’s challenging to get back in a groove even though everyone has expectations about doing so. The energy of Mars is washed out by its contact with Neptune, and this makes us feel a bit lazy and lackadaisical. “Who cares?” Take it easy. Do the basics.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Enjoy warm friendships with others today. Be patient with kids because they feel dragged out, as you might. The energy that most people feel today is not strong. It’s weak and a bit listless. You don’t have to make a big deal about anything. Just accept what is happening. Relax.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Because people notice you more than usual right now, you might feel you have to deliver. You have to look good and say the right thing. (Admittedly, this would be very cool.) However, everyone feels that their efforts are lagging behind today. You can lighten up. Mellow out.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

When talking to others today, make an extra effort to make sure that clear communications are happening because this is the classic time for misunderstandings, especially related to work, your job or even your health. People are low energy today. It is what it is.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is not a good day for important financial discussions, especially about inheritances, bills, taxes, debt or how to get your fair share of something. You’ll find it difficult to put all of yourself behind your words. You just don’t have the juice today.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Don’t worry if you don’t have the energy to do everything you had hoped to get done at home and with family members. Just cover the basics. People are low energy and a bit tired today. The summer is over and it takes a while to get cranked up. Patience.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Charlie Sheen (1965) shares your birthday today. You are clever with a sharp, fast mind. You’re determined but also gentle in your perseverance. This is a slower paced year. Take time to rest and rejuvenate yourself. Focus on close friends and partners. Make sure these people have your back. It’s okay to ask for help.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

It seems that you will have some free time on your hands today so why not use it for a higher good, maybe by spending time with your family.

You might not be in the mood for chores and maybe that clean up can wait for another day, but there is nothing keeping you from connecting and catching up with them, is it?

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You are highly motivated by a goal you have been considering for some time now but maybe you are not sure of the form it will take.

If you are counting on anyone’s help maybe it’s time to end the wait because, not to put it bluntly, but it’s not going to happen. If you want something done you might have to do it yourself.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You are very keen and persistent on accomplishing some sort of tasks although even you are aware that the odds are not in your favor.

But you never know how the wind can change so I would advise you to progress with that just don’t make it your main activity, because then you really risk overlooking something more important.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

It’s not like you are a superhero or anything but you will probably feel that some of the things you consider your attributes, like creativity or similar, will be somewhat exacerbated this Tuesday.

Maybe it’s because you are very focused on your work and you are practicing a lot or maybe it’s just the way stars want you to feel.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Satisfactory rewards are announced today for those who have been good and have played their cards right in the past. Not very sure how far away that past is but we are certainly not talking about today.

So this means that generosity or good deeds are finally returned to you and it’s only up to you, or should I say, up to your past self, whether you are getting anything today or not.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Don’t let yourself fooled by some unexpected illusions that might show up in your way this Tuesday because they will play quite a farce on you and the risk is you will be the most disappointed in the end.

If you want something deeply this doesn’t necessarily mean that is going to happen as well. Something you don’t receive what you ask for.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

If you want to have a productive Tuesday and get some time for yourself as well towards the end of the day you will have to be friendly but firm with everyone asking for help.

This doesn’t mean to ignore them or not to give a helping hand when required but it does mean for you to know when to draw the line.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This Tuesday might force you to admit something you have been hiding, either from your family or just from your partner and it won’t be pretty unless you take initiative and do it before it all comes out in the clear.

Maybe it’s something symbolic, something way too personal or something that can influence others more than yourself, in any way you still need to be honest.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You might want to refrain yourself from being confrontational today no matter how much someone has done to you or how wrong they might be and how they are affecting what you are doing.

As long as you sugar coat your words, you might still have chances to mend things, but if you are too blunt, you risk appearing as the unreasonable one.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

The current disposition seems to set you aside from competition but this doesn’t mean you necessarily have a big advantage.

It only tells you that you are starting on the right foot and maybe it won’t be that hard for you as it is for others. At the same time you need to make sure you are choosing the right battle as well.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You are very loyal to your current relationship, if not entirely with your heart at least but maybe this is not good enough for your partner and maybe they deserve better.

And it might be that this Tuesday they will somewhat receive a prompt in regards to that and things are all of a sudden going to become a little bit more serious.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

If you want to have things at your advantage maybe you should let people around you have a saying in what the group is doing and the direction.

The more people involved the easier it might be for your goal to make room ahead. It seems that the stars prefer to see you engaged with others as well and trying to understand what they want.

The Four Rules and The Law of White Witchcraft c.2018

The Four Rules and The Law of White Witchcraft


**Notice**
This document may be distributed freely so long as it is not altered, edited, or changed in any way from its original form. A copy of this document in its true original form may be gotten from our home page.

In order to live a full and successful life as a ‘White Witch’, one must first understand what the rules of the game are. The principles which are put forth below are intended to be a very simple, basic way to remember the way of the White Craft.

The total idea may be visualized as a four legged stool. Each of the Rules can be seen as a leg and The Law may be seen as the seat. The Rules without The Law are uncomfortable and nigh on to useless in their function. The Law without the Rules gives you a comfortable place to be, but it is rather impractical and again, nearly useless. However, when all of these are brought together they make a highly stable, functional, and enjoyable life.

The Four Rules

  1. Live – Live each day as if it were your last, for one day you will be right.
  2. Love – Love yourself first and foremost. For when you truly love yourself, loving those around you will come as easily as breathing – and we all must breathe.
  3. Learn – Learn your life’s lessons – each as it comes – for that is the reason we are here.
  4. Enjoy – Enjoy your life, because if you do not most likely someone else will enjoy it for you… and then your time here will have been wasted.

The Law: Harm None.

Explanations

Live

The first Rule put forth sounds pretty straight forward at first. Then you actually try to live it! 🙂 Living each day as if it were your last means maximizing your potential for every moment that you have been given.

If you are let go from your job… that is an opportunity to face truth and see what you can do to make yourself more marketable and go get a BETTER job. Or, if you are highly motivated, dedicated, and a risk taker you can take that chance to start your own company.

When I first began to follow these principles, my business was not very successful, my marriage was only tolerable, and I often felt depressed about my situation as a whole. Then I began to live each moment.’Carpe Diem’ (Seize the day) became my motto. I began to maximize every moment and live in the moment, not for the moment.

This does not mean that in order to be a good witch that you have to work like a rabid squirrel on ‘speed’… but it does mean that you have to be honest with yourself to see what your situation really is and to make the most of it. I believe that if I can go to bed at night and think to myself that I had done the very best I could that day with the information I had at each moment of opportunity, then the day was a success. But if I go to bed thinking that I had let an opportunity slip away I do not beat myself up over it. I simply say to myself, “Gee Torin, that was one you missed. I’ll get it the next time it comes along.”

Love

What is life without love? Honestly, I can’t imagine what that would be like. Yet many people live their lives without the most important form of love there is – the love of the self. If you truly understand yourself and are willing to take responsibility for your own actions you will suddenly find a great love for yourself.

In order to give free and unconditional love to another person you must first have that kind of feeling for yourself. This is all this means.

Learn

One of the cornerstones of The Craft is the belief that our souls are here on this plane of existence at this point in time to learn lessons. Your lessons are different from (although probably quite similar to) my own. Learn what life teaches you. It is no more difficult than this.

Enjoy

The life of the witch does not require you to live your life in suffering nor poverty. There are no mandates for pain, unhappiness, or unpleasantness. We do not see suffering as the ‘key’ to getting into Heaven (or the Summerlands as some of us call it). Indeed, we see such things as exactly what they are… unpleasant! This does not mean that we never have unpleasant things happen to us, nor that we walk around in a constant state of denial.

We see suffering as either the result of an action we took (i.e. going to jail for robbing a bank) or the way that The Unknown (see “The Deities of Witches” by Torin W.) has chosen to teach us a lesson which we need to learn but have not done anything consciously to bring about the circumstances (i.e. the totally unexpected death of a close friend).

Witch Craft allows you to reap all of the happiness and prosperity from your life that you can muster… so long as you stay within the accepted boundaries. For instance, if you work hard at an honest job you like to do then there is nothing which says you should feel badly for being more successful than others. But if you rob a bank, you may be happy with the things that the money can buy for a short period of time, but eventually you will suffer far greater than if you had simply worked for it. (I know this may sound somewhat like a contradiction to what I said earlier, but I do not believe in keeping a job which does not give me enough pleasure, satisfaction, and money to make up for the difficulties I endure.)

The Law: Harm None

I have been asked to explain this statement more than all of the previous ideas combined. I often describe ‘Harm None’ as “the Law which must remain unbroken, but cannot remain whole at all times.” Think about it, you can’t do it as a human being.

In order to actually harm none you would have to be in total and complete harmony with all things int he Universe at exactly the same time. Your immune system would not kill bacteria and other infections (because that would be harming them). Nor would you allow the bacteria to infect you because that would cause harm to yourself. You would not eat meat, nor vegetables because it would cause the destruction of either. Neither would you not eat because that would harm you. Do you see how this is simply an impossibility?

What I teach my students is to take great pains to Harm None and to think out the results of any act as far as possible ahead of time. I also stress that whenever magics are being worked that the free will of any individual or group should never be infringed.

I have been asked specifically about the use of various types of drugs in witchcraft and their relationship to the ‘Harm None’ principle. I believe that The Bright Ones gave us a sober state of mind for a reason. They also gave our brains some of the most potent chemicals known to man for achieving altered states of consciousness. Therefore i see no reason to alter the chemistry of the brain in order to ‘gain enlightenment’. Ask any recovering drug addict… he/she will tell you that the drugs lie to you.

Because of part of the training I give, I require that no illegal drugs are used while under my tutelage. In fact, if a student becomes sick during training and requires a prescription strength pain reliever, the training schedule is reworked to allow for the purging of the body before training resumes.

One of my students used to do a good deal of psychotropic drugs (i.e. LSD, mushrooms, etc.). Then he and I began to work together. After a few months of training, we worked a circle to allow him to develope his psychic senses (i.e. clairaudience, clairvoyance, etc.) When he left the circle he related to me a feeling such as none he had ever known. His words were, “It was a hundred thousand times better then the best acid trip I had ever taken.”

In short, I personally feel that drugs can be a great hinderance and only cause damage to your soul. But I also recognize the free will of the individual. I can only tell you that in my own perception, drugs do cause harm to you.

Merry Part and Blessed Be

Witchcraft Is A Way of Life c.2016

Spell for Monday – CROSSROADS SPELL

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER)

A Crossroads candle spell is used when you cannot choose the left fork in the road or the right. This spell is for MAJOR decisions like moving, career, etc. I would strongly not suggest this spell for a choice between two men or women.

CROSSROADS SPELL

1 white candle
1 black candle
1 red candle
A packet of Cornnuts (original recipe) Toasted Corn
21 caramels
1 small bottle of rum
three cigars (unwrapped)
Three stick matches
21 pennies
 

Write a letter to the spirit of the Crossroads and tell him the situation that you cannot decide or which road or path to choose. Lay it out in good detail which is which – meaning, what will happen if you choose this road and what will happen if you choose that path.

Go to a 4 way crossroads at 11:30 pm preferably on a Sunday night, but any night will do if you need it NOW. Place letter in center of a 4 way crossroads (must be 4 way) that extends beyond 7 blocks in each direction. Place three candles in a triangle shape on letter, surrounded by the 21 pennies. Lay one cigar each at base of the candle. Place one of each of the stick matches in between each candle. Place caramels and open pack of Cornnuts and pour in center. Take a good draw of the rum into your mouth, swish it around, spit it in a spray-like pattern over all. Set rest of open bottle of rum down on paper. Light candles and walk away.

Do not, do not, DO NOT look back or look into rear view mirror when driving away.

Accept what happens and where this takes you.

3 September 2024 Current Moon Phase and Planetary Positions for the Southern Hemisphere

Source: nineplanets.org

The current moon phase for September 3rd, 2024 is the New Moon phase.

On this day, the moon is 0.09 days old and 0.05% illuminated with a tilt of 120.629°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 404,315.15 km and the moon sign is Virgo.

The Moon phase for September 3rd, 2024 is the New Moon phase. In this phase, the moon is positioned between the Sun and Earth and is 0% illuminated (i.e the moon is not visible to us in the sky).

Due to the alignment of the Sun, the Moon and Earth, the side of the moon that faces Earth is left in complete darkness. In technical terms this is referred to as a conjunction or Syzygy.

Also, during the New Moon phase, the moon rises and sets at around the same time as the Sun. This brings to the moon too close to the glare of the Sun for us to see the moon with the naked eye.

Fun fact: The moon can’t emit its own light, it can only reflect the light from the Sun’s rays. Since there is no sunlight during the New Moon phase there is nothing to reflect, so the moon becomes completely dark and unable to be seen in the sky.

September 2, 2024 Current Moon Phase and Planetary Positions for the Northern Hemispheres

Source: nineplanets.org

The current moon phase for September 2nd, 2024 is the Waning Crescent phase.

On this day, the moon is 28.77 days old and 0.57% illuminated with a tilt of -6.507°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 402,411.51 km and the moon sign is Virgo.

The Moon phase for September 2nd, 2024 is a Waning Crescent phase. This is the phase where the moon is less than 50% illuminated but has not yet reached 0% illumination (which would be a New Moon).

In this part of the moon cycle, it is getting closer and closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing earth with a decreasingly thin crescent being illuminated.

The waning (shrinking) crescement Moon will rise at around midnight, transit the meridian after sunrise, before setting after noon. This phase is best viewed 1-2 hours before sunrise and is a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the illuminated crescent you can see the craters and mountains of the moon casting long shadows.

The Waxing Gibbous phase, like all moon phases, will last for just over 7 days. The actual length will vary because of the elliptical shaped orbit of the moon. During this Waxing Gibbous phase the moon will rise in the east in the mid- to late-afternoon and will be high in the eastern sky at sunset.

Assuming it’s a clear night, the Waxing Gibbous moon will then be visible through most of the night before setting just before sunrise.

Fun fact: the illuminated side of a waning crescent moon is always pointed eastwards, towards the sunrise.

Moon Alert

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

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Today’s New Moon is a lovely opportunity for you to think about your health and how you can improve your health. Obviously, diet and exercise come to mind. However, it might be a twofold approach: doing less of what is unhealthy; and encouraging more of what is good for you?

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Today’s New Moon takes place in a playful part of your chart, which is giving you an opportunity to value your creative talents and your creative ideas. You are a grounded, sensual, practical sign; nevertheless, you have creative talents! Don’t ignore these.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Each month the New Moon occurs in a different sign, giving us different opportunities. Today’s New Moon is your chance to think about what you can do to improve home and family. How can you improve where you live? How can you improve family relationships?

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Today’s New Moon is a great day to learn something new. It’s a good day to take a test, write letters, make phone calls and reach out to others. Make an effort to communicate clearly. Be aware of your daily surroundings and how you might improve them.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

When you want to save money – you can. But at times, you’re the last of the big-time spenders. “If you’ve got it baby – flaunt it!” Today’s New Moon encourages you to think about how you handle your money, and how you take care of your possessions.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Today’s New Moon is in your sign, which means it’s the best day of the year for you to take a realistic look in the mirror and ask yourself what you can do to improve the impression you create on your world. Ideas? Clothing? Hairstyle? Shoes?

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

The New Moon today is in a hidden part of your chart, making this the perfect day to help others. Can you be of service to someone? Does somebody need your help? Remember: True generosity is giving what is needed. (When you help someone, increased self-respect is your reward.)

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is an excellent day to reach out and contact your friends. Or better yet, reach out and get involved in groups, clubs and organizations because these interactions will be satisfying for you and hopefully, enjoyable! Take time to think about your goals.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Today’s New Moon is at the top of your chart making you aware about your standing in your community. What kind of image do you project to your world? What kind of self-discipline will help you to project an image you want, as well as move to towards attaining your goals?

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Today’s New Moon wants to feed your spirit of adventure! You want you to explore things beyond your daily routine. What can you learn that is new and provocative? What can you do that is adventurous and exciting? You might travel. Talk to different people and see new places!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is an excellent day to think about financial plans and how your assets and wealth can be used. Do you benefit from the resources of someone else? How can you best use the assets that are available to you? Meanwhile, this is a powerful day for intimacy.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Today your focus is on close friendships, partnerships and spouses. What role do you play in these relationships? Are you a good friend? For a partnership to be successful, you must be as good for your partner as he or she is for you.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Keanu Reeves (1964) shares your birthday today. You are an idealist and quick to defend the rights of others. You dislike phony pretension and needless complications. This is the first year of a new nine-year cycle for you. Expect new beginnings, adventures and major changes! Be open to new opportunities. Be decisive and ready to act.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You are attractive and you know that today a smile at the right time will get you far. It seems that interaction with people opens you and makes you behave like a completely different person.

So let your emotional demons fight themselves and focus more on what is going on in the outside world, who knows, you might be surprised by the prospects.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

The current disposition aims to keep you at home for as long as possible so I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s going to take you ages to prepare for work this morning and that you might even be quite clumsy.

Maybe it’s the Monday blues or maybe your mind is elsewhere and you prefer your comfortable retreat to anything that is out there, no matter how good.

You can also read this special Taurus Daily Horoscope.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You might want to be more observant with your partner or with your close colleagues because they will somewhat sent you some unconscious signals and you might need a lot of attention and patience to receive them.

Observing you will probably be by default, but it’s this thing with patience that is going to prove tricky.

You can also read this special Gemini Daily Horoscope.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This Monday will put you face to face with some responsibilities you might have neglected lately and all the escape routes are going to be closed shut so there’s no reason to even think of them.

Instead you might want to use the time you have before it really hits you to analyze what is going on and what you can do about it.

You can also read this special Cancer Daily Horoscope.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

There are many possibilities of advancement for you this week and although it might not seem so, even something that doesn’t involve a promotion necessarily at work, will help you advance later on.

So don’t be scared to show initiative and take on new responsibilities because you will see that everything will be well worth in the end.

You can also read this special Leo Daily Horoscope.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Quite an auspicious beginning of the week for you and while you might be very fast and productive at work, your mind will actually be in a completely different place.

You are in a romantic disposition and there is little that can change this mood, not even the fact that you might be amongst the single natives. Couples will have a fun for sure but singles won’t let themselves demoralized either.

You can also read this special Virgo Daily Horoscope.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Maybe you should focus on one thing only this Monday and get that sorted completely rather than launch yourself in some sort of frenzy of starting many tasks at once and then not getting to complete any of them.

I’d say you need to do anything in order not to stay up late at work and to get personal time as well.

You can also read this special Libra Daily Horoscope.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is going to be quite a confusing beginning of the week and in case you are not the one doing the mistake you will surely be caught in someone else’s misunderstanding if you are not very careful.

So I would advise you to mind your own business and not get involved, especially with coworkers, for now at least.

You can also read this special Scorpio Daily Horoscope.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

If you want to say something you need to make sure you can also support it or if there is criticism, that you are ready to stand behind it.

Anything you will say today won’t fly in the wind but will rather persist and hit you back when you least expect it. And I’m not talking about written stuff only, I’m referring to informal conversations as well.

You can also read this special Sagittarius Daily Horoscope.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Don’t even try to think you will be able to escape the spotlight today, either that it is related to something that is going on at work, some sort of presentation you need to hold or similar.

People will be attentive to you, study you and would want to ask you questions and it will probably be in an area you are confident about so there shouldn’t be any worries.

You can also read this special Capricorn Daily Horoscope.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Quite a dreamy mood this Monday and although others might think you are just with your head in the clouds and you should come down as soon as possible, I’d say it is actually good to keep this mood.

It will protect you from stress and even make the tasks easier if you associate them with something you really take pleasure from.

You can also read this special Aquarius Daily Horoscope.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

If you have some high expectations from this Monday or even are due to hold some sort of presentation or lead a big project maybe you should tone down those expectations.

It’s going to be actually very difficult to obtain a real contact with people and will be even more difficult to guide them in the direction you want.

Gardening Moon Calendar – September 2024 Gardening by the Moon Phase, Farmer’s Planting Guide

Please read this first:

1) Moon Phase x Moon Zodiac Sign:

Please keep in mind, that Gardening by Moon Phase and Gardening by Moon Zodiac Sign are two different/independent biodynamic systems and they might give you different or contradictiory gardening recommendations.

  • a) Each Moon Phase (except Full Moon and New Moon) lasts about 1 week
  • b) Each Moon Zodiac Sign lasts about 2.5 days

Try to experiment with these two systems to find which recommendations suits you the most.
2) Tropical (Astrological) x Sidereal (Astronomical) Zodiac:
(1-2 days difference in Leaf, Fruit, Root and Flower days)

There are two different zodiacs for determining the Moon Sign:

  • a) Tropical zodiac (Astrological) is based on the seasons – Vernal Equinox is fixed as 0° Aries (The 1st Fruit day)
  • b) Sidereal zodiac (Astronomical) takes into account Precession of Equinoxes and shifts 0° Aries back by cca 1-2 days. Maria Thun who was an authority on biodynamics was using this Sidereal zodiac

Try to experiment also with these two zodiac systems to find which system suits you better.

September 2024 Moon Details

The Full Moon for this month will occur on Wednesday, September 18th. The New Moon is earlier in the month on Tuesday, September 3rd.

September Harvest Full Moon

September’s full moon is known as the Full Harvest Moon, as it is the full moon that is closest to the fall equinox. In the northern hemisphere, the Full Harvest Moon rises very soon after sunset, providing plenty of bright light for farmers harvesting their summer crops. September’s full moon is so well-known for its luminosity and brilliance that certain Native American tribes even named it the Big Moon. The Full Harvest Moon holds major cultural significance in many different communities, who spend this full moon not just celebrating the fall harvest, but also the moon itself.

The most widely known tradition associated with the Full Harvest Moon is the Mid-Autumn Festival, celebrated by Chinese communities all around the world. It is also known as the Mooncake Festival. On the full moon night of the eighth lunar month, people gather with friends and family to admire the brilliant full moon while eating mooncakes and drinking tea. Mooncakes are a rich pastry traditionally filled with sweet bean paste or lotus seed paste, and sometimes even include salted egg yolks. The sweet osmanthus flower also blooms during this time, and is often used in teas and the reunion wine drunk when visiting with family. It is a common tradition to celebrate by carrying brightly colored lanterns, so you can often enjoy the beautiful sight of lanterns hanging in front of buildings or in parks, or sky lanterns floating towards the full moon.

There are many other variations on the Mid-Autumn Festival throughout Asia, including Vietnam and other Southeast Asian countries. The Japanese celebrate this full moon with the Tsukimi tradition (which literally means moon-viewing in Japanese), where people prepare offerings to the moon and eat round tsukimi dango, or rice dumplings. In Korea, this full moon is celebrated as Chuseok, which is one of Korea’s most major holidays, similar to Thanksgiving. People travel back to their hometowns for reunions with their family and tend to their ancestors’ graves. Traditional activities include exchanging gifts, playing folk games, drinking rice wine, and eating songpyeon, which is a rice cake shaped like a half-moon.

For most of the cultures that celebrate variants of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the desserts eaten during this festival are made using fruits, nuts, and grains harvested during this season. Similarly, the Full Harvest Moon is called the Nut Moon by the Cherokee tribes, who gather all sorts of nuts to make nut bread, which is eaten during harvest festivals such as the Ripe Corn Festival. During this moon, Native American tribes pay respects to Mother Earth for her generosity in providing food for her children, including corn and other staple foods.

Chinese communities, on the other hand, spend the Mid-Autumn Festival worshipping the Moon Goddess, Chang’e. According to legends about Chang’e, there used to be ten suns in the sky, which caused drought and suffering throughout the land. Houyi, a talented archer, shot down nine of the suns to save the world, and was rewarded with the position of emperor. Unfortuantely, he later became a malevolent tyrant, obsessed with the search for an immortality pill. In order to protect the common folk from being ruled over forever by a cruel emperor, his wife Chang’e stole the elixir of immortality from him during the full moon of the eighth lunar month. Enraged, Houyi chased after Chang’e, who swallowed the elixir to prevent Houyi from taking it. As a result, Chang’e became a deity herself and flew away to the moon, where she lives in a Moon Palace with her companion the Jade Rabbit, who pounds herbs in a pestle to help her create the elixir of immortality. Appropriately, the Chinese Lunar Exploration Program is named after Chang’e.
