The horse here is also a symbol of strength and nobility.

Yr
Sound: “y” as in “yoga”
Stands for: Bow made from a Yew Tree
Casting meaning: Yr symbolizes the perfect combination of skills and knowledge applied to materials taken from nature. This rune lets us know when we are in the “right spot” for a situation, and is good to use when looking for lost objects.

Sun
Growth, new beginnings, fertility, prosperity, solar magic, god
When this witches rune pops up in a reading, I typically smile. The sun means different things to different people; however, the fact that it sustains the planet also means it sustains our lives and brings an abundance of good things. Also linked to our solar plexus, vitality, health and self confidence.

Beith/Beth
Letter B
Beith, or Beth, corresponds to the letter B in the alphabet, and is associated with the Birch tree. When this symbol is used, it is representative of new beginnings, change, release, and rebirth. In some traditions, it also has connections with purification.
Birch trees are hardy. They’ll grow just about anywhere, including on bare soil. Because they tend to grow in clusters, what may be just one or two seedlings now can be practically an entire forest in a few decades. In addition to being a sturdy sort of tree, the Birch is useful. In days gone by, it was used for infants’ cradles, and is still harvested today to make cabinets and furniture.
From a magical perspective, there are a number of uses for Birch. The branches are traditionally incorporated into the construction of a besom, and are used for the bristles. Use the white outer bark in ritual in place of paper or parchment–just be sure you only harvest the bark from a fallen Birch tree, not a living one. Ancient herbalists discovered that various parts of this tree can be used for medicinal purposes. Bark was once brewed into a tea to fight fevers, and the leaves were used alternately as a laxative and a diuretic, depending on how they were prepared.
Beith Correspondences
Mundane Aspects: When this symbol appears, it means it’s time to get rid of all those negative influences you’ve been carrying around with you. Figure out what things are bad in your life, which relationships are toxic, and find a way to leave them behind. Instead of being dragged down by the negative, focus on the positive things you have in your life, the blessings and abundance. Use these things as a focus, rather than the harmful or damaging ones.
Magical Aspects: Consider the property of renewal and rebirth, as demonstrated by the Birch. Use this as a tool for spiritual and emotional regrowth, and developing your own ability to regenerate where there has been emptiness or devastation.

Hexagram Thirty-Five/35
Name: Chin.
Keyphrase: Progress.
Formed By The Trigrams: Fire over Earth.
General: An easily won victory should not be taken for granted or treated lightly.
Love: Do not despise easy progress with your love life. Cherish it instead.
Business: Be thankful for your current success.
Personal: Take the time to consolidate your success and share it with those around you.
Overview: Chin is all about progress. Easy progress and the feeling of dissatisfaction that can sometimes arise from such progress. Chin urges you to adopt the same attitude in victory as you would in adversity. Levelheadedness is required in both situations. Chin also warns that you should not try and take advantage of an easy victory for personal gain but must share the success with others.

All Signs
This week begins with a high-energy influence on Monday and Tuesday, which will help all of us to be able to get a lot done. Do get out of bed and get cracking! Quite literally, we can make hay while the Sun shines. By contrast, following this marvellous two-day burst of energy, we will suddenly want to relax and indulge in favourite pastimes, accompanied with the requisite guilt. (Guilt really does enhance the pleasure of something.) By the weekend, romance will flourish! Eyes across a crowded room and all that. Actually, the Earth signs (Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn) will really dazzle this week. The rest of us will applaud from the sidelines. And naturally, we want our 15% cut.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Your ruler fiery Mars is at the top of your chart lined up with unpredictable Uranus in one of your Money Houses. This means that if you want to really put it out there, and be proactive, and let your ambition channel what’s happening — you might be surprised at the payoff! But what it takes at the beginning of this week will be your commitment to an idea. Bosses, parents and VIPs will be impressed with your commitment and from that, it naturally follows that their favourable view of you will lead to a situation that ultimately can boost your earnings or attract a better job your way. Keep your eyes open. This week – you can’t lose!
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
You make a fabulous impression on bosses, parents and teachers because the Sun is at the top of your chart casting you in a flattering spotlight. (Happens for four weeks once a year.) This is your time to go for the gold! Something unexpected related to foreign countries, higher education, medicine, legal matters or publishing might yield a surprising opportunity. If so, you have to be ready to act. Stay off your heels. If you want to capitalize on this opportunity, be aware that because you look so good to authority figures – they will likely help you or promote your good name. (What’s the point of having an advantage if you don’t use it?)
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
You are a freedom-loving soul, and right now you want to “get away from all this.” You want a change of scenery. Ideally, you want to escape to sunny climes with white beaches and people in tropical apparel. (Lots of skin showing.) And because of this desire, many of you will travel and escape to a place that pleases you. Meanwhile, financial matters are favourable this week. It’s an excellent time to ask for a loan or mortgage. Doors will open for you. In fact, gifts, goodies and favours from others will come your way. Personally, feelings of desire are heightened. (Be still my beating heart.) Plan on a romantic weekend at the end of the week. Your adoring fans await you. Yay!
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Dealings with others are tricky because three planets are opposite your sign right now – Mercury, Venus and Mars. Naturally, Mercury will encourage conversations and attract talkative people to you. Fair Venus will pave the way for warm, loving relations with those who are closest to you plus members of the general public. However, Mars will make you easily annoyed with someone (probably because they are annoying). This means you will have to demonstrate grace under pressure. You are more sensitive than most people know, which means you have to deal with these feelings as best you can. Fortunately, this is a popular time for you! Furthermore, your time of harvest (happens once every 30 years) is about 18 months away! You have much to look forward to!
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Well, for starters, we do know that you need more sleep. Appreciate your need for more rest and get it. Don’t be a hero by ignoring this because it will only make you impatient or grumpy. Fortunately, this is a productive week for you because three planets are in your House of Employment giving you drive, motivation and the energy to finish what you begin. Furthermore, coworkers will help you. For example, it’s an excellent time to improve your workspace. Of course, with Jupiter at the top of your chart, your reputation is shining! (A gold star for you!) Make the most of this. Now is the time to make your pitch because you look successful!
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
You’re pumped to work and get as much done as possible. Because you’re ambitious to achieve, you will work efficiently and effectively. (Don’t be smug.) (Well, maybe a little.) In addition to your desire to work hard, you also want to improve your health. (You want it all — but why not?) Meanwhile, three planets are highlighting the part of your chart that is about play and vacations! This s why you will particularly enjoy socializing, and meeting friends for lunch, Happy Hour, the movies or drinks. Sports events will also appeal along with playful activities with kids. Take note that this weekend is full of romantic promise, especially Saturday. Enjoy!
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
More than any other sign in the zodiac, you are the one who wants to play. In fact, you might even play hooky because your desire for fun and goofing off is so strong. By all means, slip away on a vacation if you can. Make time to socialize with friends. Enjoy sporting events as well as fun activities with children. Naturally, romance will flourish, especially this weekend. Having said this, there are also three planets that want you to focus on home, family and your private life. This is why you might redecorate and dabble in home repairs as well as entertain at home. Make lists. Keep a schedule. You’re busy!
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
You’re focused on home and family, and perhaps a parent. Like last week, the universe is giving you a double message. Three planets want you to schmooze, which is why you’ll enjoy short trips, meeting people and appreciating your daily surroundings. Many of you will also write, read and study more than usual; plus, all this will happen at a busy, accelerated pace! However, by contrast, part of you will wants to hide at home and eat Ben & Jerry’s Cherry Garcia. Of course, you will bounce back and forth between these contrasting energies. Fortunately, you can eat ice cream wherever you are.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
You’re PowerPoint on steroids this week, especially on Monday and Tuesday. Make the most of the energy that you have at the beginning of this week because you will get a lot done. Your daily pace will accelerate because you have a busy schedule of short trips, errands, conversations with everyone, appointments plus increased reading, writing and studying. It’s a great week to write, sell or teach. Whatever you do, you’ll be productive, especially in the beginning of the week! Meanwhile, three planets are in your Money House attracting money to you and giving you moneymaking ideas. Therefore, make the most of the beginning of this week — then kick back, relax and enjoy yourself.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Your schmooze factor is strong this week because Venus is prominent in your sign. Oh yes, people see you as charming and diplomatic. (And you are!) Plus, they think you’re attractive. (Note: This is still an excellent time to buy wardrobe goodies.) With Mercury and Mars in your sign, you’re proactive, confident and ready to speak up. Meanwhile, the Sun is in your Money House giving you a strong desire to boost your earnings. Therefore, decide what you want and make a bid for it. As the saying goes, you can’t win if you don’t buy a ticket. If you ask for more money and you don’t get it, you’re right where you are now – and you haven’t lost a thing, except your pride. Do it!
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
You reign supreme now with the Sun in your sign. Take advantage of this once-a-year blessing, especially in the beginning of the week on Monday and Tuesday when you can go after what you want and probably get it. Yes! You might be involved in some behind-the-scenes deals or work very quietly on your own. Keep in mind that real estate holds a lot of potential for you in terms of speculation or earnings. This weekend is an especially romantic time, and many of you are having a secret love affair. Hmmm. In fact, much of your life is a bit “secretive” right now. This is also an excellent week to do research, perhaps to enrich your family life.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Once again, two opposing influences are at play for your sign. One of them will make you want to seek out some privacy and enjoy your own solitude in beautiful surroundings. However, by contrast, the other influence wants you to schmooze and socialize! It urges you to hang out with younger people and see creative artistic friends. Very likely, some of you are feeling competitive right now perhaps with teams or groups. The important thing to know is that the beginning of this week will bring you wonderful opportunities to achieve your goals. Therefore, use the influence of these social planets to be commanding, confident and get things done. Later in the week, enjoy schmoozing with friends.
Spell for Sunday – Intuitive Guidance Candle Dressing
(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER)
Intuitive Guidance Candle Dressing
Often in life we find ourselves in situations where it is difficult to separate a gut feeling from facts. Life is full of contradictions, and sometimes it can be impossible to know which way to turn, which course of action to take, or what really is right for you. This candle dressing can be used whenever you’re facing a hard choice or when outside opinions are at odds with your inner feelings.
For anointing:
1 drop sandalwood oil
1 drop lavender oil,
1 drop frankincense oil
1 teaspoon dried crushed mugwort
1 teaspoon dried crushed eyebright
1 pinch powdered nutmeg
Draw an X shape on a piece of paper to symbolize the many choices you’re facing. Anoint and dress a light purple or light blue candle. Secure it safely in a holder and set it on the intersecting lines of the X. Light your candle when you’re asking for guidance or allow it to safely burn throughout your day. The answer will reveal itself.

Two of Wands – Focus will and energy.
A man holds a crystal-topped wand in each hand, his arms stretched upward towards two Air dragons, one hovering on each side of him above. The man stands in a grassy, flower studded meadow with mountains behind him. Near his feat are small sacred stones craved with Celtic spirals. These spiral designs are repeated in a pattern on his vest. The two wands. or scepters, symbolize the man’s ability and willpower to harness both positive and negative energies to make changes in his life. This is essential, as both types of energy are needed for balance and manifestation. The two hovering dragons are another emblem of the male-female, positive-negative energies. The spirals in both the rocks and his clothing represent the constant moving, inexhaustible energies of the Universe. He has found his way through a series of spiritual gateways (the mountains) to the peaceful meadow of creativity (the three stones).
Divinatory Meaning: Focus your will and energy to accomplish your desires. Help with realization of a dream may come from a distance. A new endeavor requires courage and planning for the future.

Crossroads
This rune indicates a more difficult path where things are not so easy.
The Crossroads represents not only quarrels and misunderstandings but also discipline and mastery over the self.
It is not necessarily bad luck, but rather slow, substantial gains.
The Crossroads suggest maintaining the status quo, understanding boundaries and limitations, make a sustained practical effort, practical matters and solid achievement.
Relationships may be on shaky ground when one of these elements is sacrificed at the expense of another.
This rune stresses basic concerns and could indicate feeling boxed in. There may even be a feeling of discouragement. But you will soon discover innate strength and resources giving your achievements more meaning.

Huath/Uathe
H is for Huath, or Uatha, and is symbolic of the Hawthorn tree. This prickly-thorned tree is associated with cleansing, protection and defense. Tie a thorn with a red ribbon and use it as a protective amulet in your home, or place a bundle of thorns under a baby’s crib to keep bad energy away. Because the Hawthorn typically blooms around Beltane, it is also strongly connected with fertility, masculine energy, and fire.
In folklore, the Hawthorn is associated with the land of the Fae. Thomas the Rhymer met the Faerie Queen under a Hawthorn tree and ended up in the Faerie realm for seven years. Despite its connection with female and goddess-centered pre-Christian belief, it’s considered unlucky to bring Hawthorn into your home. This may stem from the fact that some species of Hawthorn give off a particularly unpleasant –almost corpse-like–scent after they’ve been cut. No one wants their home to smell like death.
In Glastonbury, England, there’s a famous Hawthorn tree known as the Holy Thorn. The tree that stands there today is supposed to be a descendant of one that stood on Glastonbury Tor two thousand years ago, when Joseph of Arimathea brought the Grail to England from the Holy Land. When Joseph thrust his staff into the ground, it turned into a Hawthorn tree.

Hexagram Twenty/20
Name: Kuan.
Keyphrase: Observation.
Formed By The Trigrams: Wind over Earth.
General: Remaining alert to all that affects you and those around you will help you to understand your role in the world.
Love: This could be a time when you are feeling isolated. Make the effort to go out into the community.
Business: Refamiliarize yourself with the needs of your customers and clients. Go out into the community and meet with them.
Personal: Travel is a good way to combat any feelings of isolation.
Overview: Ku reminds you that although it is always wise to watch out for problems it is possible to become somewhat detached from reality by doing so. When concentrated on to the exclusion of all else there is a danger of the spirit becoming undernourished. Perception may become distorted and dangers go unnoticed. Isolation (meditative or otherwise) should always be balanced by traveling out into the community. Assessing the world both from afar and close up will give you an accurate assessment. If this advice is not followed you will only see a part of the overall picture.

Numerology

The 6 is considered the most harmonious of all single-digit numbers in numerology.
The Numerology Meaning of the Number 6: THE CARETAKER
The most important attribute of the 6 is its loving, caring nature. Aptly nicknamed the motherhood/fatherhood number, the 6 is all about sacrifice, healing, protecting, and teaching others.
No family or community can function without the attention of the 6 – it is the glue that keeps a family and community together.
Creating an environment of peace and harmony is always at the forefront.
Home, family, and friends are top priorities. People with a 6 in their core numbers often focus on the young, the old, and those less fortunate.
The 6 is sympathetic, favors the underdog, and has a keen sense of what is fair and just. Perceiving injustice, the 6 will sacrifice immense time and effort to set things straight. Highly responsible, the 6 can be counted on to show up and do more than their fair share of the work. People with a 6 can be demanding, but they will work in the background when needed, without an expectation of reward.
The 6 is graceful, warm, and has a good sense of humor.
They are well respected in the workplace due to their sense of duty and responsibility – but also because they are genuinely well-liked. Many 6’s can be found in teaching, healing, counseling, construction, the legal field, and law enforcement.
On the negative side, the 6 can be jealous and small-minded, often focusing on small details while ignoring the bigger picture (often to their own detriment).
Not always the best judge of character, the 6 has been known to sacrifice for a person or cause not worth the price.
At times, the 6 can become too involved in the lives of those held dear, to the point where concern becomes intrusive and meddling. On the other hand, the 6 – ever sacrificing – can become a doormat to be abused and trampled on. The 6 is idealistic, trusting, and easy to take advantage of.
The 6 can be conventional, and must be wary of adopting the opinions of others instead of using their own mind.
They can also be smug and arrogant, especially toward authority figures and institutions. Sometimes annoyingly self-righteous, the 6 can become an intolerant zealot. A disproportional number of people with OCD have the 6 prominent in their charts and can suffer from anxiety and other phobias.
The 6, while loving, caring, and full of sympathy for others, can be self-centered and egotistical if people at the receiving end don’t show the gratitude expected. Typically, however, those fortunate enough to receive the attention of the 6 genuinely appreciate and cherish them in return.
Numerology views no number as without weaknesses and faults; that said, the 6 remains the most harmonious and stable among them. Perhaps for that reason, when the 6 (occasionally) falls into discord, it can become the most destructive and dangerous of all numbers. Beware of a cynical or angry 6, who can become a merciless wolf in sheep’s clothing.

Celtic Tree Month – Rowan: January 21 – February 17
Source: tree2mydoor.com
Ogham Letter: Luis (L)
Symbolic Meaning: Courage, Protection, Connection
Ruling Planet: The Sun
Ruling Elements: Fire
Season: Spring & Autumn
Corresponding Star Sign: Aquarius / Pisces
The second lunar month is ruled by that of the Rowan Tree. Another tree associated with a powerful, feminine connection, the small, deciduous rowan is praised for its beauty and hardiness. A strong symbol of courage, protection and connection.
The rowan tree can take root almost anywhere it wants but prefers to grow and thrive in greater heights giving it the name of the ‘Lady of the Mountain’. Even though it looks delicate, up here it will thrive in harsh conditions and always come out stronger on the other side.
The Rowan is deeply rooted in psyche and philosophy. It is thought to open the mind, improve psychic powers and inspire those who come into contact with it.
The tree has a positive presence and its protective abilities are used to keep evil spirits at bay. Branches of the rowan were hung around doors to keep those inside safe from wrongdoings.
The Celts thought that the rowan berries possessed magical powers. The bright red berries are a sign of protection. Red being the most protective colour. They are a great source of vitamin C and were used to treat scurvy.

Rowan Tree Zodiac
People born under the Rowan Tree are quietly influential and aloof. They are idealists and individuals, often feeling misunderstood. They have the natural ability to transform a situation making those around feel comfortable but don’t be fooled by their calm, collected demeanour as inside they are burning bright with a passion for change. They’re diplomatic and great listeners, always respecting others beliefs making them great leaders. It is the philosophical sign in the Celtic zodiac.
Rowan signs pair well with Ivy and Hawthorn.

The Rowan Moon is associated with Brighid, the Celtic goddess of hearth and home. Honored on February 1, at Imbolc, Brighid is a fire goddess who offers protection to mothers and families, as well as watching over the hearthfires. This is a good time of year to perform initiations (or, if you’re not part of a group, do a self-dedication). Known by the Celts as Luis (pronounced loush), the Rowan is associated with astral travel, personal power, and success. A charm carved into a bit of a Rowan twig will protect the wearer from harm. The Norsemen were known to have used Rowan branches as rune staves of protection. In some countries, Rowan is planted in graveyards to prevent the dead from lingering around too long.

All Signs
This week we have a Full Moon in Leo on Thursday. This Full Moon will be a strong energy and we will feel it. As happens every month, our problems will seem to intensify as the Full Moon approaches, then almost magically, after the Full Moon peaks, these same problems will diminish or even disappear. Please remember this if you feel tension with someone at the beginning of the week. These are temporary annoyances. Don’t get your belly in a rash. Above all: remember your objective, which is that you want to be happy. Hope is the feeling you have that the feeling you have isn’t permanent.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
This is a popular week for you! You’ll enjoy seeing friends and having an increased involvement with groups and organizations. You will also make a great impression on bosses, parents and important people. Quite likely, someone will ask for your advice about how to make something look better, regardless of what you do for a living. It’s good to know that people will listen to you this week. Take note that mild angst dealing with friends and groups will build up at the beginning of the week before Thursday’s Full Moon. However, after that, relations with everyone will be warmer and happier. Finances look good! Some will have a flirtation with a boss or someone older.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
In some ways, this is a public week because the Sun is at the top of your chart, casting you in a flattering spotlight, which means people notice you and they admire you! However, by contrast, the Moon will be travelling along the bottom of your chart, which means you’ll be more inclined to stay at home, enjoy time with siblings and relatives plus socialize with close friends and your kids. Thursday’s Full Moon might create tension with parents and bosses. You will be faced with the challenge of dealing with the demands of home and family versus the demands of your career and your public life. Something has to give. Following that, enjoy a social weekend when life is more relaxed.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
There’s no question that you want some adventure this week. Of course, you’re always curious. But this is more, it’s stronger. You feel restless. You quite literally need a change of scenery! However, don’t push the envelope because some tension will build up before Thursday’s Full Moon, which could be an accident-prone time for you. Of course, an accident doesn’t have to happen, but you could be distracted. Be aware of this. Avoid arguments about politics, religion and social issues. Disputes about shared property and finances might also occur. Fortunately, gifts and goodies can come your way! By the weekend, you’re happy to hunker down at home and enjoy good times with friends and family.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Some of you call yourselves a Moonchild because you know that the Moon is your ruler. This is true. This is also why you generally feel each Full Moon more than most people. For example, perhaps it affects your sleep patterns? Very likely, you will feel the Full Moon on Thursday, probably through disputes or disagreements about shared property, your belongings, shared responsibilities or how to divide or share expenses. (These are important issues for you because you are never casual about money.) In addition to this, Mars is opposite your sign now, which makes relations with close friends and partners a tad challenging. You might feel annoyed with someone. This is mostly small stuff. After the Full Moon, the end of the week and the weekend will be lovely and romantic.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Tread carefully at the beginning of this week because some people around you might be grumpy. Possibly even you are grumpy. (Is it time to send out for dark chocolate?) What’s important to know is that the only Full Moon in your sign all year will occur on Thursday. You might feel this even several days before Thursday. It will bring issues with close friends and partners to a head. Medieval knights used to “throw down the gauntlet”, which meant to throw their armoured glove at the foot of their opponent to challenge them to a duel. Don’t ruin your week by being upset with someone. Instead, use the energy of Mars to get stuff done because you can be productive! Oh yeah.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
This is a productive week for you because you’re pumped for action! You want to get things done and you want to do them efficiently, which is very much your style. One of the reasons you want to do this is you also have plans to socialize! The arts, sports events, social outings and entertaining diversions, especially with your kids, will appeal to you, which means you have to work smart in order to have free time to play! However, the Full Moon on Thursday means that the beginning of the week might have a few challenges, especially to your health and your job. Allow extra time for everything so that you have wiggle room for the unexpected. Get as much done ahead of time as possible.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
You are looking for some serious playtime this week – no question. You want to be free to enjoy vacations, social diversions, entertaining times with friends, especially your kids, and anything to do with the arts and sports. Nevertheless, the Full Moon on Thursday will create a bit of tension earlier in the week. Be gracious. Be patient with others knowing that by the weekend, social occasions will be delightful and enjoyable for everyone. This means you have to have skilful means to get through a few speed bumps earlier in the week, which with your charm and diplomacy – will be very easy. Meanwhile, redecorate and restore order to your home.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
In astrology there is something called Fixed Signs. They are: Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius. Generally, a Full Moon in any of those signs is more dramatic and more noticeable for everyone, especially those signs! This week on Thursday, there will be Full Moon, which means the Sun will be in Aquarius directly opposite the Moon in Leo. You will feel this! For you, it will manifest as a challenge to keep your home scene happy, at the same time as meeting the demands of a boss or someone in your external world that affects your career or your public reputation. Be tactful at the beginning of the week as this energy begins. After it’s over, you will have a lighthearted, busy, fun-loving weekend!
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Be careful. Because you enjoy the outdoors, you should be aware that this week has accident-prone qualities, which will build up until Thursday’s Full Moon. These accidents could be physical as well as verbal — and guess who likes to “tell it like it is.” Fear not! Things will go well if you’re aware and observant. Take a beat and think before you act or speak. Don’t do anything impulsively because this could have unwanted consequences. Meanwhile, you have great moneymaking ideas this week. You can also attract money to you, which is a good thing because you’re spending it! Ka-ching!
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Three planets are in your sign right now making you charming, diplomatic, talkative, active and confident! (Great time to shop for wardrobe items because you like what you see in the mirror.) The energy during the beginning of this week will build up before the Full Moon on Thursday, which will activate both your Money Houses. This means you might have squabbles or challenges dealing with how to balance your interests versus the interests of someone else, especially in terms of property, shared costs, shared responsibilities, earnings and your own cash flow. This could also reflect a challenge that is based on a difference in values that you have with someone else. You can handle this.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
You will certainly feel the energy this week because on Thursday, the only Full Moon opposite your sign all year will take place. Many people will feel this strong energy; however, you might feel challenged dealing with close friends, partners and spouses. Things that have been unexpressed or bubbling beneath the surface, especially elements of discontent, could come to the surface for you (and someone else) to deal with. It’s cards-on-the-table time! This might be surprising for one of you because hidden resentments might be smouldering in the background. Let these feelings come out in the open. Give them some air. Be reasonable and hear both sides of the question. This is step number one.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
This will be an interesting week for you because for some signs, especially Taurus, Scorpio, Leo and Aquarius, the Full Moon on Thursday will be eventful. Those signs will feel energy building up to that day, and then dissipating afterwards. In all likelihood, you will probably feel this particular Full Moon much less. Nevertheless, this energy could impact your job, your health or something to do with a pet. Issues in these areas might need your attention, especially if there is something that needs to be resolved. Meanwhile, meetings with friends and groups will generate enjoyable, competitive and fun times! Appreciate the people you love.

Oir
Epiphany, realization, peak, lightning flash, elucidation
Tree: Spindle (Euonymus spp.)
Letter: Th
Oir signifies the realization something is at its peak. It is a few of insight and understanding; it is the “bolt of lightning” like Prometheus’s fire that enables human beings to evolve. Lifting the veil of ignorance can be painful and seeing the truth does not always feel like a gift. The possession of knowledge is a complex burden to carry: it is too complicated to qualify as “good” or bad”. Nevertheless, some epiphanies can be life-changers. They can grant us the ability to make good decisions and liberate us from cycles we no longer wish to participate in.
Believers in reincarnation speculate the reason we cannot remember our past lives whenever we want is because all of that information would fry our little human brains. The same is true of clairvoyance: if we could see all of the non-corporeal activity around us, it would likely send us straight into the asylum. A little fire is good; burning the house down or freezing to death for lack of a pack of matches is not good. Seeking knowledge is great; seeking to know it all at the expense of one’s sanity and personal hygiene never works out. Running away from the life of the mind ends badly in equal measure. As usual, this Ogham implies a balance should be struck.

Close companions in any storm:
The Superior Person possesses a resiliency and durability that lets him remain firmly and faithfully on course.
Such constancy deserves success.
SITUATION ANALYSIS:
Endurance is the key to success in this situation.
However, durability is not synonymous with stone-like rigidity.
True resilience requires a flexibility that allows adaptation to any adverse condition, while still remaining true to the core.
Can you maintain your integrity under any circumstance?
Can you influence the situation without giving opposing forces anything to resist?
Then you will endure to reach your goal.

This statement doesn’t apply to a Numerologist’s perspective alone, but perhaps it’s a good place to start since the personality of the number 1 aligns nicely with its elevated spiritual symbolism.
The 1 is a doer, a powerful force that produces results.
The 1 is aggressive – a necessary trait for creating, and not allowing anything to limit its potential. The 1 is the spearhead, always in the forefront directing and leading others.
The shape of this number reflects its meaning; the 1 walks upright with pride and purpose – strong, determined, and unwavering with a specific goal in mind. The 1 is capable of turning ideas into reality – pushing obstacles aside or simply drilling right through them.
The 1 tends to have a simple, straightforward view of life, heedless of its many complexities.
An individual with the dynamic 1 trusts their ability to separate right from wrong, doesn’t waste time on abstract ideas, and rarely follows a path that isn’t in line with their result-oriented goal. The 1 is no preacher, no philosopher, spiritual explorer, nor dreamer – and certainly not an idealist. They are pragmatic, ruthless conquerors, and warriors extraordinaire. The 1 is individualistic and independent to a fault. They will attempt to force their viewpoint on you but have no desire to hear yours.
The 1 can be confrontational, jealous, and exceedingly stubborn, but also courageous and willing to try anything new (with promise) even at great risk. They have a sense of honor and responsibility that demands respect and are the first to defend injustice and hypocrisy.
Befriend a 1 and you have a friend for life.
Fortunately, the 1 has a great capacity for humor, often self-depreciating, so you can poke fun at your friend and not worry about hurt feelings. But don’t cater to them to win love or friendship or you will lose their respect. Stand up to a 1 and you may lose the fight, but you’ll gain admiration. Working for a 1 you will be pushed to the limit, abused at all hours, and incapable of living up to unreasonable expectations. But you will also become the best you can be.
When in trouble, you want a friend with a strong 1 on your side, and you won’t find a braver partner or a more dedicated protector. But, if the 1 is your enemy, you could be crushed without mercy. And be forewarned, the number 1 is the most difficult of all lovers, demanding, jealous, confrontational, and impatient.
If you have a 1 in your core numbers, your happiness and sense of satisfaction will come from your work more than any other source.

2,700-year-old temple with altar overflowing with jewel-studded offerings unearthed on Greek island
2,700-year-old temple with altar overflowing with jewel-studded offerings unearthed on Greek island
Archaeologists in Greece have discovered a 2,700-year-old temple that houses a horseshoe-shaped altar overflowing with offerings.
Constructed of bricks, the temple is 100 feet (30 meters) long and is located next to the Temple of Amarysia Artemis, a sanctuary dedicated to the Greek goddess Artemis, which researchers found in 2017 on the island of Evia, according to a translated statement from Greece’s Ministry of Culture.
During excavations in 2023, archaeologists found the second temple.

“One of the peculiarities of this temple is the significant number of structures found inside it,” the researchers wrote on Jan. 9 in a translated Facebook post detailing their finding.
Those structures included several hearths located in the temple’s nave, including the ash-caked altar stacked with offerings such as pottery; vases; Corinthian alabaster, or the carved mineral gypsum; gold and silver jewelry studded with coral and amber; amulets; and bronze and iron fittings. The altar also contained several pieces of charred bone.
Some of the pottery pieces predate the newfound temple and were fired during the late eighth century B.C., leading researchers to suspect that the altar may have once resided outside the temple and was later moved indoors.
In the sixth century B.C., brick partitions were placed at the sanctuary’s heart for added support, leading researchers to think that the temple was “partially destroyed” by a fire, according to the statement.

Beneath the temple, archaeologists found several dry stone walls from a different building that once stood at the site, along with several bronze figurines shaped like bulls and a ram. They also unearthed remnants of buildings from the eighth and ninth centuries B.C. next to the first temple, as well as a fortification system dating to the more recent early Copper Age, or roughly 4000 to 3500 B.C.
