Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or important decisions from 8 AM to 12 noon EDT today (5 AM to 9 AM PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Virgo into Libra.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

This is a marvellous, productive day for you. (By all means, do get out of bed.) You’re full of moneymaking ideas and ways to promote your earnings. Coworkers might help you. You might also see new uses for something that you own. This is a strong day for you!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This is a powerful day for Earth Signs in particular (Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn). You will enjoy social outings as well as sports events and playful activities with children. Because you’re in a creative frame of mind, you might see ways to put a new spin on something.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Use today’s energy to do research or look for answers to old problems or solutions to bothersome situations because you will likely be successful. Plus, with the Sun in your sign, things will tend to go your way and people are likely to help you.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You will be powerful today when talking to others, especially friends and groups, meetings or classes. People will listen to you because you will speak with confidence and authority. Nevertheless, later in the day, you might choose to “hide” at home. “Enuff awreddy.”

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Today, especially this morning, is a strong time for you to speak to bosses, parents and authority figures about what you want because they will listen to you. Admittedly, they too, will be very direct in their communications. You might see ways to improve your job or your health.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Today begins with the Moon in your sign dancing powerfully with Mercury and Pluto. Even after the Moon changes signs, you will still be in the zone to make things happen, especially financially or regarding making travel plans and studying. Good day to get things done!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Today you might have some excellent ideas about how to use the resources of others including the government, banks or your partner’s assets to make improvements at home or in your personal life. After the Moon moves into your sign, you will be more empowered to go after what you want.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Expect to have dynamic conversations with others today – your friends, partners, spouses and even members of the general public. You will express yourself forcefully and so will they. Hopefully, this will be in the interests of getting things done.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is a good day to focus on how to improve your job, your health or even how you take care of your pet. Look for ways to do things better, because let’s face it, there is no end to better. There is always room for improvement.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Today you are in an exploratory frame of mind. You want to test new ideas and see discover ways of thinking. Later in the day, you might find yourself in the public eye more than usual. Perhaps people know certain details about your private life? (Be aware of this.)

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Family discussions as well as plans for home repairs will be successful today. The support and resources that you need will be there, and later in the day, you might try new approach to something. A different way of doing things perhaps?

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is a busy, productive day for you. Short trips, errands and appointments will flow smoothly. Admittedly, during the Moon Alert, you might encounter a few speed bumps or delays. Nevertheless, you will be very convincing talking to others today – no question.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Millicent Martin (1934) shares your birthday today. You are passionate and eager about life! You are versatile and interested in everything. You are an entertaining storyteller who loves a challenge. This year is slower paced. It’s time to rest and focus on your closest relationships. Take time to figure out what makes you happy.

From MoonGiant.com

The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waxing Gibbous phase. This phase is when the moon is more than 50% illuminated but not yet a Full Moon. The phase lasts about 7 days with the moon becoming more illuminated each day until the Full Moon. During a Waxing Gibbous the moon rises in the east in mid-afternoon and is high in the eastern sky at sunset. The moon is then visible through most of the night sky setting a few hours before sunrise. The word Gibbous first appeared in the 14th century and has its roots in the Latin word “gibbosus” meaning humpbacked.

Visit the June 2022 Moon Phases Calendar to see all the daily moon phase for this month.

Today’s Waxing Gibbous Phase

The Waxing Gibbous on June 8 has an illumination of 59%. 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 June 8 the Moon is 8.24 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.

The 8 Lunar Phases

There are 8 lunar phases the Moon goes through in its 29.53 days lunar cycle. The 4 major Moon phases are Full Moon, New Moon, First Quarter and Last Quarter. Between these major phases, there are 4 minor ones: the Waxing Crescent, Waxing Gibbous, Waning Gibbous and Waning Crescent.

Spell for Today – Walk Backwards Return Spell and Concentrate Candle Spell

 

Wednesday is a good day to focus on getting over any slumps you may have. This day is considered the middle of the work week; and many people find themselves very tired by this point. That is why this day is a great day to do refresh, refrain, return, wake-up, and concentration spells. It is, also, another good day for meditation.

 

Walk Backwards Return Spell

Things you will need:
1 candle (any color)
1 lighter or match
Your body

Place a candle in front of you on a fire-safe surface. Sit or stand in a comfortable position in front of the candle and close your eyes for about three minutes. During the three minutes, think about what you want returned to you and how that item makes you feel. After the three minutes or so, get up and take twelve steps backwards and say this chant three times:

“Backwards walk.
Missing something yearned.
When I turn around,
It will be returned.”

After doing this, turn around three times, clockwise, and stop. Now, go blow out the candle, and your item should be returned to you soon.

 

Concentrate Candle Spell

Items needed:
1 small white candle
1 small blue candle
1 orange candle

Take all three candles and place them on a fire-proof surface in front of you. Light both candles. Take three deep breaths. Lightly tap your forehead with one of your fingers for a minute or so. You should feel a slight tingly sensation on your forehead. Now, look at the three candles and say this chant three times:

“I have the time.
I have the wait.
This should help me concentrate.
When it’s white And it’s blue,
It will start my mind a new.”

After you have finished, blow out the candles. From this point on, when you have problems concentrating, think of those white, blue, and orange candles, and the tingle in your forehead; and your mind should be better able to concentrate.

A Thought for Today

Until we meet again dear sisters, brothers, and honored guests may your life be filled with all things positive!

June 7, 2022 Daily Horoscopes Digest

Moon Alert

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

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Unexpected events might catch you off guard today, especially something that is related to your health or your work. (This might also be something related to your pet; so be alert.) At work, allow extra time to deal with such surprises as machinery breakdowns, staff shortages and late deliveries. “What, again?”

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Parents, please keep an eye on your kids today because this is an accident-prone day for your children. Likewise, social events might suddenly change. They might be cancelled or you might receive a surprise invitation? Sports results will surprise. You feel free today!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Your home routine might change today because small appliances might break down or something unexpected could occur. Someone unexpected might knock at your door. To be ready for anything, get dressed. It’s a mild influence but nevertheless, something will catch you off guard.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This is a mildly accident-prone day so be careful. Pay attention to everything you say and do. Especially when it comes to travel, give yourself extra time so you can cope with whatever occurs. The upside, you can think outside of the box and come up with clever, genius-like ideas!

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Keep an eye on your money and your assets today because something unexpected might impact them. For example, possibly, you will find money or you will lose money. In the same vein, (but a different arm) be smart and protect your belongings from loss, theft or damage. Play it safe today.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Today the Moon is in your sign dancing with wild, wacky Uranus. This is why you feel restless and eager for something different and new to happen. You might even play the role of the trickster and stir the pot, as it were, when dealing with someone just to see what happens. (Be nice.)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Something unexpected might occur today, possibly behind the scenes. In a way, this will intrigue you because you crave emotional excitement today. Preferably across the street – not in your face. Something you can watch from afar.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You might find yourself dealing with friends or groups of people who advocate for new policies or reform in some fashion. Their platform will excite you. Possibly, you will want to give input to what they are doing? A friend might surprise you today.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You might find yourself at odds with a group that you are working with or alternatively, they embrace you with admiration. Could go either way. Whatever the case, you are high viz. perhaps for taking a stand or saying something unusual.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Travel plans might change today. They could be cancelled or delayed or in turn, you might suddenly have to travel when you did not expect to do so. News in the media might surprise you. You certainly want the freedom to express your views.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Double check banking details and anything to do with taxes, debt, insurance issues and the wealth or assets of your partner because something unexpected could impact these areas. When it comes to money or wealth that affects you – be in the know.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Don’t be surprised if a partner or close friend catches you off guard today by saying or doing something you did not expect. (This is classic for a day when the Moon is stimulated by unpredictable Uranus.) Many people are caught off guard by minor events or conversations today. To play it safe, allow extra time for wiggle room.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Lance Reddick (1962) shares your birthday today. You are sharp, observant and vigilant. You work hard. You’re a good judge of character and easy-going with others. Personally, you have strong spiritual values. This year is the first year of a new, nine-year cycle for you. Many opportunities will come your way. Be courageous, open-minded and ready to open any door!

June 6, 2022 Current Moon Phase Digest

You can use this link to go forward or backward in time for Moon phase information. If you are curious, you can even find out what phase the Moon was in when you or anyone else was born.

From MoonGiant.com

The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waxing Crescent Phase. A Waxing Crescent is the first Phase after the New Moon and is a great time to see the features of the moon’s surface.

All Signs

This week there is a lovely grand trine in the Earth signs: Moon in Virgo, Pluto in Capricorn and Mercury in Taurus. (The gang’s all here!) This will help everyone to work hard to achieve goals that will lead to success. Therefore, think about what you want to achieve and focus on it. Make a list. Maybe you want to clean something that has been challenging? Maybe you want to boost your income? Whatever it is you want to do – get ready to tackle it because you will make great strides! Mid-week, it’s easy to be sidetracked with daydreams, but that’s a temporary detour. The key is perseverance. Veni Vidi Velcro: I came, I saw, I stuck around.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Because this is a fantastic week to accomplish a lot, you will be busy! (You’re not going to sit around getting dusty.) This lovely Earth trine is perfect for you because it activates three separate parts of your chart: your House of Earnings, your House of Employment and your House of Career. Holy moly! You don’t want to miss this opportunity! Furthermore, your ruler Mars is in your sign lined up with lucky Jupiter, which gives you the energy, drive and confidence you need to go after your dreams. A dash of unexpected good luck will help you. To me that sounds like a recipe for success. Get busy!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Well, you’re sitting pretty this week because fair Venus and Mercury are in your sign; plus Mercury is part of this wonderful grand trine in your fellow Earth Signs. (See All Signs above.) Many of you will use this practical drive to explore creative options, perhaps working in the arts, the entertainment world, working with children or professional (or amateur) sports. However, another aspect of this favourable influence is that you might transform your appearance or the image you project to the world. Somehow, you will improve your game face. It could be a haircut, a wardrobe change, new glasses, or a determination to buff your bod. Whatever the case, you’ll be pleased with the results!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This lovely grand trine in the Earth Signs will help you to work behind the scenes and introduce improvements to your home or where you live. These improvements might include your relationship to a family member, especially a female. Because the Sun is in your sign now, you are unusually empowered! (The Sun is in your sign for only four weeks a year, so you want to make this work for you.) Some kind of boon or a piece of good luck might occur that is private. You know about it, but nobody else does. You can also harness the energy of others, friends and groups, to help you achieve your objectives. However, always listen to the “friend” inside you.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This week you still feel two opposing influences: the need to work alone or behind the scenes and keep a low profile; versus an aroused ambition to succeed. This lovely grand trine in the Earth Signs will prompt you to interact with others and engage with people in such a way that you will stir up support for yourself and whatever it is you are doing, or you want to achieve. In particular, young people as well as creative, artistic types, might help you. You will be convincing and persuasive because you will speak from the heart. (No surprise here because after all, you’re a feeler.) Someone might have advice for you about how to relate better to a partner or close friend. Be open to everything.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Like Aries, you benefit from the Grand Trine in the Earth signs because it hits three houses: your House of Earnings, your House of Career, and your House of Employment. What an advantage! Like a cool breeze on a hot day. Good fortune coming your way! As they say, luck is when preparation meets opportunity. So be prepared! People in power, bosses and parents can help you do something to boost your earnings. You can revise, improve or modify your job or how you do your job. You might even change your job. (Note, this same beneficial influence can improve your health.) Be ready to accept advice or to approach people in power. “More porridge?”

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Lucky you! This wonderful Grand Trine mentioned in All Signs above occurs between three “planets”, and one of them is the Virgo Moon! (Yeah, yeah, the Moon is not a planet but for the sake of ease, astrologers refer to the Sun and the Moon as planets when talking about a chart.) This means you have an opportunity this week to explore or improve travel plans, opportunities in publishing and the media, or legal or medical matters. (This is a great time to travel or to make travel plans!) It’s also a propitious time to improve your relations with kids, especially by trying a new approach with something. Speaking of new approaches, you might also improve a romantic relationship. Woot!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Very likely, you will do some quiet research and private thinking about how to make improvements at home or within your family dynamic. And when you consider the possible improvements that you would like to explore, what is timely is the fact that you will find the financial backing or the resources and practical help from others that you need to do what you want to do. Sometimes we have great ideas but we can’t pull them off because we don’t have the money or the help. This week, it will all come together for you. Don’t be afraid to explore making improvements in your personal life. You can do this!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You are a powerful sign, and not one to miss an opportunity when powerful energy is flowing. That’s what’s happening this week. Go forth and explore new ways of engaging with partners, friends, groups and organizations. Yes, we’re talking about how you relate to the people in your world. You can improve how you talk to your daily contacts, siblings, relatives and neighbours. Reach out and explore aspects of networking. Act on your urge to contact others in person, through social media, or attending an event or a meeting. We are gregarious creatures. We need people in our lives. We need to go out to see others and to be seen.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This week is all about how to improve your job, boost your career and your public reputation, and make more money. This is an auspicious time for you because the Grand Trine (mentioned in All Signs above) is taking place in Earth Signs. Earth is practical. Earth is “Let’s get it done.” Earth is about tangible wealth. It most certainly relates to work and earnings. For you, the three planets in this Trine (Virgo Moon, Mercury in Taurus and Pluto in Capricorn) are each sitting in your House of Earnings, your House of Career, and your House of Employment. (Your House of Career is actually your path in life, not necessarily your job.) This means you can get a lot done and see ways to boost your income. Yay!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Obviously, the Earth Signs are getting a tremendous boost this week because the Grand Trine is taking place in earth: Moon in Virgo, Pluto in Capricorn and Mercury in Taurus. This bodes well for you! Travel plans, vacations, the entertainment world, fun activities with kids, the arts, sports and entertaining diversions are all areas that can flourish for you – and in an unexpected way, allow you to improve your appearance or improve the image you offer to the world. Let’s face it, you want respect. You like to look good. This week somehow, you will use a lot of fun energy and exploring new ideas and meeting people who are different – all of which will benefit you. Get ready!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This week, the lovely Grand Trine in Earth Signs will benefit your home and family and your private world. Unexpected assistance and help from surprising sources will be there for you, so that in turn, you might entertain at home. You might also redecorate or begin renovations at home. You might even explore a change of residence? Most definitely, family relations will be more lively and more active in a pleasant, social way. This week is a lovely time to entertain at home, especially because you are unusually optimistic, warm and friendly. “Come out to the coast, we’ll get together – we’ll have a few laughs.”

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

The Grand Trine mentioned in All Signs above will boost your opportunities to schmooze on a daily basis this week. This will be a busy, popular week for you! Your dance card will be full because you will have appointments, errands, visits, conversations and fun opportunities to schmooze with neighbours, siblings, relatives and daily contacts. Some of you will also study and learn more. You might explore a writing project. Because you are inclined to focus on home and family right now, you might invite these people to your home. Or you might work more and write and study from your home. You definitely have something to say this week. Don’t hesitate to reach out and contact someone. “Hi, there…”

A Thought for Today

Until we meet again dear sisters, brothers, and honored guests may your life be filled with all things positive!

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or making important decisions after 7 PM EDT today (4 PM to 11:30 PM PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Leo into Virgo.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Go gently when dealing with children and young people today to avoid disputes and difficulties. People are especially touchy and grumpy today. Past issues about money and possessions might cause problems. Resist the urge to weigh into the fray. Stay chill. (Be smart.)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Courtesy and patience are how to handle difficulties with family members, bosses, parents and authority figure today. You have your opinions, and so do they. Be smart. Don’t go looking for trouble because it will easily find you!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Steer clear of politics, religion and racial issues today because these discussions will be impossible. People are opinionated, and ready to challenge anyone who disagrees with them. (You need this like a fish needs a bicycle.)

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Avoid squabbles about shared property, money, responsibilities with friends or members of a group. These squabbles won’t help you, and they won’t further your best interests. Therefore, don’t get involved because they will only drag you down.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Today the Moon is in your sign at odds with Saturn and Mercury, which makes others feel at odds with each other. You will definitely feel this dynamic because with the Moon in your sign, you are in the middle of this dynamic. Don’t be emotional. Don’t get involved. Chill out.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Listen to your inner impulse today, which is to be low-key and stay behind the scenes and keep a low profile. Be wise and follow these instincts. If you get involved with others, you might have quarrels at work or differences with others, especially cultural differences.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

By nature, you are people pleaser. You don’t like to rock the boat. However, today, you might feel irritated with someone. (And of course, if you need to get something off your chest – it’s hard to keep your shirt on.) Make sure your facts are correct before you get involved.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Dealing with others are challenging today. You might be at odds with a family member, a close friend, a spouse or a partner. In fact, you might have a public argument. (Wince.) Relax. It’s hard to avoid this today because people (including you) are touchy, especially about criticism. Aren’t we all?

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Be careful because conflict with others, a prevailing sense of irritability, and an intolerance of others’ opinions might not only lead to disputes, but worse — these challenges could create an accident-prone day for you. Be smart. Take it easy. Pay attention to everything you say and do.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You’re not casual about money. You respect what is valuable, and you hate waste. Today something to do with your possessions, or the possessions of someone else, or your responsibilities for kids or a social occasion might create a problem for you. Listen to what others have to say but keep your ideas to yourself.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Feelings of control and suspicion of others might be of the day because the moon is opposite your sign today at odds with Saturn in your own sign and both of these are at odds with Mercury. Yikes! Arguments, drama and consternation might occur. Steer clear, if you can.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Be patient with coworkers and daily contacts to keep the peace today. In fact, it might be wise for you to go your own way or “hide” in order to avoid melodrama and difficult encounters with others. After all, you just want to have a pleasant day, right?

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Mark Wahlberg (1971) shares your birthday today. You are an energetic person who has a genuine interest in others. You like to get involved and be part of the scene. You are charming, intelligent and always optimistic. This is a favourable year for you because you will receive recognition for your accomplishments. Expect promotions, awards and kudos!
