Moon Alert

avoid shopping and important decisions from 5:45 AM until 8:45 AM EDT today (2:45 AM until 5:45 AM PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Leo into Virgo.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Today you want to get things done. You want to be efficient, practical and productive. This attitude alone could help you resolve loose ends that have been a challenge this week. With your ruler, fiery Mars in your sign, you’re all systems go!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Make today a day of rest because you need it. Take time to replenish and restore yourself with recreational activities and a fun escape of any kind, preferably a mini-vacation. Social diversions and playful activities with kids will delight.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You have been busy socializing because your ruler Mercury and Venus are in your sign making you charming, diplomatic and eager to talk to others. Today you want to escape the busyness around you and cocoon at home. Find ways to kick back and relax.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

With the Sun still in your sign, you continue to make a fabulous impression on others. Today in particular, you’re eager to talk to someone at a “gut level” of communication. You don’t want to waste time on superficial chitchat.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Today it’s easy to identify with your possessions, which is why you will like to be surrounded by the things that you own and enjoy. (Obviously, you might not want to lend something to someone.) Nevertheless, relations with younger, creative people are positive. Your desire to travel is still strong.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You feel more emotional than usual today because the Moon is in your sign. However, this will tend to improve your good luck. You can use the advantage you have talking to bosses, parents and VIPs because they will be ready to listen to you.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You’re happy to keep a low profile today. You prefer to work alone or behind the scenes if possible. Note: You might not pull this off because the Sun at the top of your chart is casting you in a flattering spotlight, which will attract others to you.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You’re doing your best at work or with whatever task that you set for yourself. (Give yourself a pat on the back. Too often, we think of our faults instead of our accomplishments.) Today a warm conversation with a female acquaintance could be meaningful. It might make you change your goals.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Something to do with your professional or business life might be tested today. Certain secrets about yourself might be revealed. Be careful not to blur the lines of authority because you feel friendly with a boss. This is a tricky situation. Friendly is good; chummy – not so much.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Do something to “get away from all this” if you can because you need to escape. You need a change of scenery so you can emotionally kickstart yourself. Keep in mind that this month you need more sleep than usual.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You’re in a lovely position right now because you want to work hard, and get better organized. This means you have the motivation. But in addition to this, the placement of Mars and Jupiter in your chart will give you the positive energy and follow through that you need to do the job. Yay!

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Today you have to go more than half way when dealing with others. That’s just the way it is. This is no biggie. It simply means you have to be cooperative, accommodating and ready to listen. You can do this.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Tom Cruise (1962) shares your birthday today. You are a perfectionist who sets high standards for yourself. You are versatile, charismatic and intelligent. You are private, even shy about your personal life. This year is the last year of a nine-year cycle, which means it’s time to wrap things up and let go of what is no longer relevant in your world.

Pagan and Magickal Terms and Definitions

Today’s Word is

Ceremonial Magick

From moonlitpriestess.com

Typically less religious and more philosophical and intellectual in nature; often focused on Western Mystery traditions; characterized by emphasis on prescribed sets of rituals, formulaic words, tools, symbols, etc. May be referred to as “high magick” which was a classist term used to differentiate the ceremonial magick of the elite classes from the folk magick of peasants.

Phobos: Doomed Moon of Mars

Image Credit: HiRISE, MRO, LPL (U. Arizona), NASA

Explanation: This moon is doomed. Mars, the red planet named for the Roman god of war, has two tiny moons, Phobos and Deimos, whose names are derived from the Greek for Fear and Panic. These martian moons may well be captured asteroids originating in the main asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter or perhaps from even more distant reaches of our Solar System. The larger moon, Phobos, is indeed seen to be a cratered, asteroid-like object in this stunning color image from the robotic Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, with objects as small as 10 meters visible. But Phobos orbits so close to Mars – about 5,800 kilometers above the surface compared to 400,000 kilometers for our Moon – that gravitational tidal forces are dragging it down. In perhaps 50 million years, Phobos is expected to disintegrate into a ring of debris.

Solargraphic Analemmas

Image Credit & Copyright: Dawid Rycabel (Pinholove)

Explanation: For the northern hemisphere June 21 was the summer solstice, the Sun reaching its northernmost declination for the year. That would put it at the top of each of these three figure-8 curves, or analemmas, as it passed through the daytime sky over the village of Proboszczow, Poland. No sequence of digital exposures was used to construct the remarkable image though. Using a pinhole camera fixed to face south during the period June 26, 2021 to June 26, 2022, the image was formed directly on a single sheet of photographic paper, a technique known as solargraphy. The three analemmas are the result of briefly exposing the photo paper through the pinhole each day at 11:00, 12:00, and 13:00 CET. Groups of dashed lines on the sides show partial tracks of the Sun from daily exposures made every 15 minutes. Over the year-long solargraphic photo opportunity clouds blocking the Sun during the pinhole exposures created the dark gaps.

Moon Alert

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

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Today is a mixed bag; nevertheless, it is challenging! Your ruler, fiery Mars is in your sign at odds with big daddy Pluto, which can encourage ruthless and underhanded activity. Tread carefully! Don’t do anything you will later regret. Fortunately, socializing with others, for the most part, is positive and friendly.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Although family relations and issues at home are warm and supportive today; nevertheless, something going on behind the scenes might need your attention. (If you think something fishy is going on – it is!) Be wary of anything that looks like it is not in your best interests.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This is a curious day, and heaven knows, you are someone who is constantly curious. In many ways, relations with siblings, relatives and neighbours are positive and caring today. However, power struggles with a group or a friend are likely. Keep your nose clean. Take the high road.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You have a lot of energy today that you can use to skilfully deal with power struggles and disagreements. You might have to confront someone else who challenges you. If so, make sure that your actions are aboveboard. Avoid the temptation to be ruthless or aggressive.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Today the Moon is in your sign dancing nicely with Jupiter and Venus, which promotes good feelings within you, hence — friendly relations with others. Nevertheless, because Mars is at odds with Pluto, disagreements about controversial issues are likely. Stay with the positive energy.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Even though you might be caught up in power struggles about shared property, inheritances or debates about shared responsibilities; nevertheless, you are capable of being positive in how you handle things. This is because inwardly, you’re happy, which means you won’t overreact.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Today is a mixed bag. You might find relations with partners and close friends to be aggravating because some kind of power struggle is taking place. Frankly, it could get nasty. Because of this you might find relief talking to a friend or someone in a group. (Accept support wherever you find it.)

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You look positive in the eyes of others today. In fact, bosses, parents and VIPs are impressed! Meanwhile, something related to your job, or a pet, or possibly even your health is aggravating you. It might be about work-related travel. Use your coping skills.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Disagreements about taking care of kids as well as arguments related to sports or social situations are likely today. And yet, these will only take place with some people in your life, while other relationships are not affected and are running smoothly. And so it goes. Be patient.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Be patient with family members today because arguments and disagreements will be par for the course. Fortunately, financial matters are favoured. You might get the practical support from someone that you want. Perhaps it’s a matter of who calls the shots?

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Go gently when talking to others today because you might be a bull in a china shop without realizing it. Basically, you want your way. Or perhaps you have to confront someone else who wants their way? Today your wisest course might be to agree to disagree.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Emotional power struggles about possessions or money might take place today. Guard against compulsive behaviour or sudden urges to do something that might not be good for you in the long run. Resist the temptation to give into a passing desire that is questionable.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor, comedian Dan Ackroyd (1961) shares your birthday today. You are a sensitive, loving person who values family and friends. You are intuitive, imaginative and you have an excellent memory. This is a year of learning and teaching for you. Time spent in solitude to develop yourself personally and increase your knowledge will be well spent. Excitement increases toward the end of the year.

Some of the Witchcraft/Magickal Correspondence Digest for Saturday

From WitchSwap.com

Saturday

is associated with Saturn (imagine that!), the planet that rules over responsibility, self-discipline, limitations and boundaries. Zodiac signs include Aquarius as well as Capricorn and Libra (due to the planetary correlation to Saturn). Elements corresponding to Saturday are Earth and Water. Saturn is the Roman God who is known for liberation and dissolution. Because of this, spells having to do with break ups (yeah, controversial and this isn’t’ an endorsement, either, just to be clear), ending a relationship or a partnership of any kind, business, personal, etc. as well as banishment, justice, swift karma and protection spells will all be favorable if performed on a Saturday. Gods/Goddesses: Saturn. Colors: Black and purple. **a black candle is great to use to banish negativity or to reverse a situation, it is not only used in baneful spells**. Angel: Barachiel

Pagan and Magickal Terms and Definitions

Gardening Moon Calendar – July 2022

July 2022 – Gardening by the Moon, Biodynamic 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.

Gardening by the Moon Zodiac Sign (Element) – Legend

Biodynamic Calendar – Icon Legend
	Leaf days (Water Element) It is the appropriate time to sow, transplant and cultivate plants from which the intention is to use Leaves and Stems. Ex: Cabbage, Salads, Lettuce, Spinach, Green onions, Broccoli, Cauliflower and Celeriac. Leaf plants should be harvested in Flower days (or Fruit days). Harvesting in Leaf days is not recommended (products start decomposing in a shorter time). Beekeeping: Working with the hive is not recommended in Leaf days.
	Fruit days (Fire Element) It is the appropriate time to sow, transplant and cultivate plants that produce Fruits and Seeds. Ex: Cherry, Strawberry, Tomato, Pea, Bean, Corn, Pumpkin, Nut, Cereal, Courgette. Harvesting in Fruit days allows fruits and seeds to have a better storage quality. Leaf plants should be harvested in Flower days (or Fruit days). Beekeeping: Fruit days stimulate the collection of nectar. Bees are also supposed to be more gentle these days.
	Root days (Earth Element) It is the appropriate time to sow, transplant and cultivate Root plants and Root vegetables. Ex: Carrot, Turnip, but also Potato, Beet-root, Garlic, Onion, Leek. Crop should be stored in Root days. Beekeeping: Bees should be encouraged to build more comb.
	Flower days (Air Element) It is the appropriate time to sow, transplant, cultivate and harvest Flower plants or herbs used for medicinal purposes. Flowers, if cut in these days, have a more intense scent and endure longer. Leaf plants should be harvested in these Flower days. Beekeeping: Flower days stimulate brood activity and colony development. Bees are also supposed to be more gentle these days.

Gardening by the Moon Zodiac Sign (Element) – Legend

Biodynamic Calendar – Icon Legend
	Leaf days (Water Element) It is the appropriate time to sow, transplant and cultivate plants from which the intention is to use Leaves and Stems. Ex: Cabbage, Salads, Lettuce, Spinach, Green onions, Broccoli, Cauliflower and Celeriac. Leaf plants should be harvested in Flower days (or Fruit days). Harvesting in Leaf days is not recommended (products start decomposing in a shorter time). Beekeeping: Working with the hive is not recommended in Leaf days.
	Fruit days (Fire Element) It is the appropriate time to sow, transplant and cultivate plants that produce Fruits and Seeds. Ex: Cherry, Strawberry, Tomato, Pea, Bean, Corn, Pumpkin, Nut, Cereal, Courgette. Harvesting in Fruit days allows fruits and seeds to have a better storage quality. Leaf plants should be harvested in Flower days (or Fruit days). Beekeeping: Fruit days stimulate the collection of nectar. Bees are also supposed to be more gentle these days.
	Root days (Earth Element) It is the appropriate time to sow, transplant and cultivate Root plants and Root vegetables. Ex: Carrot, Turnip, but also Potato, Beet-root, Garlic, Onion, Leek. Crop should be stored in Root days. Beekeeping: Bees should be encouraged to build more comb.
	Flower days (Air Element) It is the appropriate time to sow, transplant, cultivate and harvest Flower plants or herbs used for medicinal purposes. Flowers, if cut in these days, have a more intense scent and endure longer. Leaf plants should be harvested in these Flower days. Beekeeping: Flower days stimulate brood activity and colony development. Bees are also supposed to be more gentle these days.
