Anti-Slander Spell – Protection from Torment and Slander

Time: Waning moon or Dark of the Moon.

You will need:

  • A dark altar or an image of Hecate
  • Two Candles – One black, One blue or white
  • An instrument to inscribe the candle
  • Juice from the Dieffenbachia Plant
  • Spider Webs
  • Pen and Paper
  • Purifying or Calming Incense

Note: “Hecate” is pronounced “Heh-KAH-tee” or “Heh-KAH-Teh”

Use a dark altar, or an image of Hecate, Avenging Goddess, on your altar. Place two candles on either side of the image. You will need a black candle, juice from a dieffenbachia plant (which numbs and paralyzes the tongue if you get it in your mouth, so don’t; you won’t need much of it), and spider webs. Inscribe the black candle with your enemy’s name. Make your circle. Say the following invocation:

Lady of Darkness,
Dark Isis of spells,
Hecate, avenging Mother
Hear us and help us.
Roll the black candle in the juice of the diffenbachia to stop the enemy from speaking evil about you or your loved ones. Say:Let the tongue of (name) be numb
and powerless to speak evil,
To speak the untrue.
Let his/her voice fail and throat close
On the harmful words,
By the power of the Dark Lady.
Then roll the candle in spider webs. Say:

May (name) be caught and bound by the webs of his/her own deceit.
Then write the person’s name on a piece of paper.

Light the candle and say:

Here is (name), alone and helpless.
(Name), you are friendless.
Emptiness and failure close around you.
Your plans are as nothing.
Frustration is yours.
Trouble, doubt and fear are at your side.
Soon you will cease tormenting me (or name of person you’re
protecting).

Burn the paper in the flame of the black candle. Take it and the remnants of the candle after dark and sprinkle it before the residence of your enemy, or where the enemy is certain to walk. Light a blue or white candle and burn calming or purifying incense for peace.

HARE

Although hares and rabbits look similar, they have very different symbolism. A hare is bigger than a rabbit, has longer ears, and possesses more powerful hind legs. The two most abundant kinds are the European Brown Hare and the Snowshoe Hare. The Snowshoe Hare is strongly linked to the Snowy Owl population, such that when hare populations are down, the owls stop breeding, and even die from starvation. The hare is more solitary and tougher than the rabbit. Hares don’t live in warrens or have maternity nests. The young hares are born so well-developed that they can fend for themselves within a few hours of their birth.

The hare is associated with a number of myths from many different cultures. The Algonquin tribe honored the Great Hare as a demiurge, a role in the creation of the world. The Egyptians also saw the hare involved in a creation story. For them, the hare came to mean procreation, and then immorality. While the hare is often associated with impatience and haste (like the “Tortoise and the Hare” fable), it’s important to note that other cultures, like the Goths, saw the hare as fleet and swift, and symbols of diligence. This reflects the attitudes of medieval hunters, who viewed hares as a challenge to catch.

Hare people are considered sensitive and artistic, and also linked with ambition, fitness, and virtue. However, the hare is not just associated with positive things. Hares are also thought of as greedy and selfish, even a bad example for people. Hare is seen as a jokester, linked with trickery and fraud. Even those with hare medicine are clever, often unreliable, and frequently thinking of themselves.

Although hare has some qualities that are less than redeeming, there are things he can teach us. Because they move in leaping and hopping motions, those with rabbit and hare totems can expect changes in their own lives in the same kind of movement. Hare can also aid people in recognizing the signs around them by attuning to lunar cycles and understanding the tides of movement in their own lives.

Fehu

Sound: “f”
Stands for: Cattle
Color: Green (Brown)
Casting meaning: Fehu is a rune of power and control. It represents new beginnings and “movable” wealth such as money and credit. It is a rune that gives us the power we need to obtain wealth as well as the power we need to hold on to it.

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.

COLL/CALL

C, sometimes read as K, is Coll, which is the Hazel tree. August is known as the Hazel Moon, because this is when Hazel nuts appear on the trees–the world Coll translates to “the life force inside you”, and what better symbol of life than the nut itself? Hazel is associated with wisdom and creativity and knowledge. Sometimes it is connected in Celtic lore with magical springs, sacred wells, and divination.

Hazel was a handy tree to have around. It was used by many English pilgrims to make staffs for use upon the road–not only was it a sturdy walking stick, it also provided a modicum of self-defense for weary travelers. Certainly, it could have been used as well for ritual. Hazel was used in weaving of baskets by medieval folk, and the leaves were fed to cattle because it was believed this would increase the cow’s supply of milk.

In the Irish myth cycles, there is a tale that nine hazel nuts dropped into a sacred pool. A salmon came along in the pool and gobbled up the nuts, which then imbued him with wisdom. A variation of the story appears in the legend of Finn Mac Cumhail, who ate the salmon and then took on the knowledge and wisdom of the fish. Note that Mac Cumhail is often translated as Mac Coll.

Coll Correspondences

Mundane Aspects: Take advantage of your own artistry or creativity, and share your knowledge with others so they too can practice these arts. Lead by example, and teach those who wish to learn. Find inspiration for your creative gifts, whatever your talent may be.

Magical Aspects: Let the divine guide you in your creative journey. Speak to the gods through your art, and be rewarded with inspiration. If you’re stuck in a creative rut, call upon the Divine to send you a Muse.

Hexagram One/1

Huan / Dissolution

Wind carries the Mists aloft:
Sage rulers dedicated their lives to serving a Higher Power and built temples that still endure.

The King approaches his temple.
Success if you stay on course.
You may cross to the far shore.

SITUATION ANALYSIS:

Walls meant to protect have instead separated and isolated.
Your defenses have kept you apart from those whom you most need to touch.
Whatever the reason for discord between you, it is time to lay down your arms.
Dispel the inflexible demands and fears of the Mind so that you may reunite in the Heart.
If you have begrudged, forgive.
If you have torn down, repair.
If you have injured, heal.
If you have judged, pardon.
If you have grasped, let go.

FIVE

The most vibrant, freedom-loving of all numbers in numerology

A DYNAMIC FORCE

The 5 is unpredictable, always in motion, and constantly in search of change.

Although it is molded from an almost equal mix of freedom-loving and loyal characteristics, the 5 is slightly more daring, and there is nothing submissive about it.

The 5 is extremely independent in mind and soul.

Many 5s choose careers that require travel or otherwise offer a regular change of environment. People working in the travel industry, small business owners, independent consultants, lawyers, and those in sales often have the 5 in their core numbers.

The 5 can adjust quickly to pretty much anything coming their way.

Perhaps the most dominating trait of the 5 is the uncompromising demand for freedom in thought and action.

On the negative side, the 5 can be selfish, thoughtless, and irresponsible.

7 of Pentacles – Minor Arcana

Upright meaning

In this card, we see a triangle in the center pointing upwards, framed by four pentagrams at the four corners, reaching the state of materialized spirituality and vice versa. The idea has applied to action and brought about money. This amount is used to fund research and search for information and to help people grow. This card evokes generosity, victorious sports performances, in-depth knowledge of the body, and cognitive-based physical strength. This could be a compassionate person, a patron, a genius businessman, or a global success of a company.

The 7 De Deniers shows that you have a strong desire to invest in things that will bring long-term benefits. You understand the importance of spending time and energy at the moment to reap the benefits in the longer term, and you are not necessarily looking for quick wins as such. You also want to focus your attention on the right areas that will allow you to get more for your money instead of wasting time on areas that…

Reversed meaning

The negative aspect focuses on the disconnection between body and soul, spiritual disdain and overestimation of material life, slavery, greed for money, multinational companies destroying the environment, drug organizations and pharmaceutical monopolies.

The 7 De Deniers in reverse tells that your efforts can be scattered right now, and you start wondering if you are investing in the right areas. You may bet for things that will not work. So, the opportunity here is to review your current and planned investments (cash and time investments) and make sure that you will receive a return. Let’s use a priority system to ensure that you do not waste time or money in areas that will bring little results.

Limits, prudence, the usefulness of fear

Tree: Aspen (Populus spp.)

Letter: E

Picture a tall tree that seems to tremble when blown by wind — that’s the quaking aspen. Like birch, aspen grows in groups, which brings to mind the comfort of being surrounded or power in numbers. Pulling this Ogham says that contemplating and respecting limits is the best strategy. For instance, when you are angry about something, allow yourself to fully admit and feel your rage, but bring down a limit when it comes to expressing rage. Honesty and analysis of your emotions, especially of anger, will transform anger into a tool for self-improvement instead of blind self-destruction.

Fear is another limiting force. An excess of fear can be crippling. When fear goes too far, the result is agoraphobia/severe anxiety…

Hexagram Twenty-Two/22

Name: Pi.

Keyphrase: Grace.

Formed By The Trigrams: Mountain over Fire.

General: Valuing beauty will enable you to cultivate your taste for harmony in all aspects of your life.

Love: Beauty is only skin deep – do not be taken in by superficial appearances. Look beneath the surface to see a person’s true character.

Business: If a business proposition looks too good to be true then it probably is. Make sure it’s exactly what it appears to be.

Personal: Enhance your inner beauty.

Overview: Pi is about observing natural grace and allowing that observation to inspire you to emulate it in life. Pi also is a warning not to be taken in by superficial beauty or appearance. Instead, make sure that what lies underneath the surface is more enduring. To neglect to do so may well lead to errors of judgment. Remember, the more enduring beauty is seen with the heart. Not with the eye.

Twenty-Two

This is the master builder. Although Number Twenty-twos are idealists and visionaries, they still manage to keep their feet on the ground.

Keywords: achiever, wise, intense, idealistic, resourceful, passionate. If expressed negatively: overly emotional, destructive, dramatic.

As lovers: It’s all or nothing with these lovers. They don’t seem capable of doing things halfway, and that includes their relationships. They are generally bent on achieving in life, and their sheer intensity is something people either love or hate

A General Healing Spell For Health

This is one of the healing spells that requires a few more ingredients, but it’s super effective for the long-term.

Ingredients:

  • 3 white candles
  • Mint essential oil
  • Sandalwood essential oil
  • 3 clear quartz crystals or other healing crystals
  • 3 small pieces of paper

Cleanse your space and ingredients.

Sprinkle each of the candles with all three oils, then do the same to the crystals. Place the candles in a triangle shape on your alter or table and place a stone in front of each candle.

Write the name of the person you intend to heal three times (once on each piece of paper) even if this person is yourself. Place all three pieces of paper in the center of the triangle.

Light the candles and raise your energy. Focus on the sick person and picture them being well and whole. Repeat the following 3 times:

Magic mend and candle burn,

Illness leave and health return.

Let the candles burn for 30 minutes then snuff them out. Repeat this ritual nightly or weekly until the individual is healed.

Flower Meanings: The Language of Flowers from almanac.com

What Does Each Flower Symbolize?

Discover the language of flowers with the Almanac’s complete chart of Flower Meanings. When selecting flowers—for a Mother’s Day bouquet, for your garden, or even for a tattoo, know their meaning.

The History of Flower Meanings

The language of flowers has been recognized for centuries in many countries throughout Europe and Asia. They even play a large role in William Shakespeare’s works. Mythologies, folklore, sonnets, and plays of the ancient Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, and Chinese are peppered with flower and plant symbolism—and for good reason.

Whether you’re giving flowers to a mother for Mother’s Day, a friend on their birthday or a beloved on Valentine’s Day, nearly every sentiment imaginable can be expressed with flowers. The orange blossom, for instance, means chastity, purity, and loveliness, while the red chrysanthemum means “I love you.”

Flower Language of the Victorian Era

Learning the special symbolism of flowers became a popular pastime during the 1800s. Nearly all Victorian homes had, alongside the Bible, guidebooks for deciphering the “language,” although definitions shifted depending on the source.

Following the protocol of Victorian-era etiquette, flowers were primarily used to deliver messages that couldn’t be spoken aloud. In a sort of silent dialogue, flowers could be used to answer “yes” or “no” questions. A “yes” answer came in the form of flowers handed over with the right hand; if the left hand was used, the answer was “no.”

Plants could also express aversive feelings, such as the “conceit” of pomegranate or the “bitterness” of aloe. Similarly, if given a rose declaring “devotion” or an apple blossom showing “preference,” one might return to the suitor a yellow carnation to express “disdain.”

How flowers were presented and in what condition was important. If the flowers were given upside down, then the idea being conveyed was the opposite of what was traditionally meant. How the ribbon was tied said something, too: Tied to the left, the flowers’ symbolism applied to the giver, whereas tied to the right, the sentiment was in reference to the recipient. And, of course, a wilted bouquet delivered an obvious message!

More examples of plants and their associated human qualities during the Victorian era include bluebells and kindness, peonies and bashfulness, rosemary and remembrance, and tulips and passion. The meanings and traditions associated with flowers have certainly changed over time, and different cultures assign varying ideas to the same species, but the fascination with “perfumed words” persists just the same.

Flower Meanings by Color

Flowers provide an incredibly nuanced form of communication. Some plants, including roses, poppies, and lilies, could express a wide range of emotions based on their color alone.

Take, for instance, all of the different meanings attributed to variously colored carnations: Pink meant “I’ll never forget you”; red said “my heart aches for you”; purple conveyed capriciousness; white was for “the sweet and lovely”; and yellow expressed romantic rejection.

Likewise, a white violet meant “innocence,” while a purple violet said that the bouquet giver’s “thoughts were occupied with love.” A red rose was used to openly express feelings of love, while a red tulip was a confession of love. The calla lily was interpreted to mean “magnificent beauty,” and a clover said, “think of me.”

Unsurprisingly, the color of the rose plays a huge role. Red roses symbolize love and desire, but roses come in a variety of colors, and each has its own meaning.

White rose: purity, innocence, reverence, a new beginning, a fresh start.

Red rose: love; I love you.

Deep, dark crimson rose: mourning.

Pink rose: grace, happiness, gentleness.

Yellow rose: jealousy, infidelity.

Orange rose: desire and enthusiasm.

Lavender rose: love at first sight.

Coral rose: friendship, modesty, sympathy.

What Wedding Flowers Mean

One tradition is to select the flowers of a wedding bouquet based on plant symbolism. As an example, look to the royal flower bouquet in the wedding of Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, to Kate Middleton (now Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge). Her all-white bouquet had lily-of-the-valley (representing trustworthiness, purity), sweet William (gallantry), hyacinth (loveliness), myrtle (love in marriage), and ivy (continuity). Altogether, these flowers’ meanings reveal the hope of a loving, everlasting marriage.

The groom, too, wore a flower that appeared in the bridal bouquet in his button-hole. This stems from the Medieval tradition of wearing his Lady’s colors as a declaration of his love.

One fun modern idea is to give each bridesmaid a bouquet featuring a signature flower whose meaning suits her personality.

There is a language, little known,
Lovers claim it as their own.
Its symbols smile upon the land,
Wrought by nature’s wondrous hand;
And in their silent beauty speak,
Of life and joy, to those who seek
For Love Divine and sunny hours
In the language of the flowers.
–The Language of Flowers, London, 1875

Joyful and blessed birthday wishes from Lady Carla Beltane with the WOTC Family and Friends!!

May the next year of your life bring you more love, laughter, joy, happiness, enough income to cover what you have to have along with a little leftover for fun! May it bring you everything you want if it is supposed to be and everything you need. May sorrow be unknown, and any negativity be minimal. May the wind always be at your back.

As an Aries born on April 18th, you are industrious and passionate about a lot of things but you also need a lot of motivation to be productive. By being as easily distracted as you are, you often end up discovering new things, you wouldn’t otherwise pay attention to.

You don’t like creating any confusion and can often be quite blunt with people, just to make sure you have been understood. Prepare to read an exceptional analysis below.

 The zodiac sign for April 18 is Aries.

 Astrological symbol: Ram. This symbol suggests a willful individual that is task oriented but also symbolizes the seeds growing at the beginning of spring. It is characteristic for people born between March 21 and April 19 under the Aries zodiac sign.

 The Aries Constellation is one of the twelve constellations of the zodiac, covering visible latitudes between +90° and -60°. It lies between Pisces to the West and Taurus to the East on an area of only 441 square degrees. The brightest stars are Alpha, Beta and Gamma Arietis.

 In Greece it is named Kriya while the French call it Bélier. However, the Latin origin of the Ram, the April 18 zodiac sign is Aries.

 Opposite sign: Libra. This sign as the opposite or complementary of Aries reveals high spirit and sincerity and shows how these two sun signs have similar goals in life but they reach to them differently.

 Modality: Cardinal. The quality exposes the affectionate nature of those born on April 18 and their charm and understanding in most existential aspects.

 Ruling house: The first house. This house symbolizes beginning in all matters, the physical presence and how the world perceives an individual.

 Ruling body: Mars. This celestial planet symbolizes idealism and charm. Mars is considered to be the yang side or yin which is Venus. Mars is also suggestive for the patience component of these personalities.

 Element: Fire. This is the element that works so to the benefit of those born under the April 18 zodiac, of those who are brave and follow their plans independently and who are quick to reveal their heated nature at times.

 Lucky day: Tuesday. Aries best identifies with the flow of the spirited Tuesday while this is doubled by the connection between Tuesday and its ruling by Mars.

 Lucky numbers: 1, 2, 14, 17, 27.

 Motto: I am, I do!

People born on April 18 are brave, empowering and are decided to succeed in everything they engage in. They are always engaged in many activities and they enjoy this very much, especially those that allow them to deal with what they love and are best at: pursuing plans. On the other side, they are circumspect both in family life and professionally, when it comes to being inquired about their choices and about previous resolutions. They can often be found taking part in outside activities and they seem to work by the principle that the more the merrier.

 Positive Traits: These natives are very resourceful and seem to know their way around a lot of situations. They are industrious and enthusiastic when confronted with novelty and they also possess quite a keen temper. They seem to be both analytical and imaginative although they don’t always use these right at the time they should be used. They are loyal and affectionate once someone wins their respect and attention.

 Negative Traits: These natives are eager and single minded and they should learn to reckon things more if they don’t want to put their relations at risk and enter into all kinds of confusions. They are selfish and often impolite and they are prone to melancholia and even depression because they often prefer to keep things bottled up as they consider revealing their emotions might destroy that potent presentation they want to preserve in front of others.

Love and Compatibility: Lovers born on April 18 are both sentimental and passionate. They have no patience for courtship so they step this stage and go directly to professing their deep passions. They can be easily swept off their feet by eccentric and mysterious persons. Magic ends only if their partner can’t keep up with their incredibly active pace. Aries is also falling for simplicity and real enthusiasm. When they are single they focus on their ideas and plans and seem to be even more productive.

 Usually a joyful character, they sometimes find it hard to express their emotions and this can make them appear quite difficult and hard to understand. They need time to develop a real connection. For them, relationships and settling will probably be a complex matter but once they decide to have their own family they will turn out to be very protective and patient. They are most compatible with those born on 3th, 5th, 6th, 12th, 14th, 15th, 21th, 23th, 24th and 31st.

 April 18 Zodiac people are very compatible with the other two fire signs: Leo and Sagittarius as they tend to share the same vision of life. In love, Aries is in a constant search for a deep and understanding relationship where they can open their hearts and express their feelings freely. The one to offer this to them is the affectionate and loyal Libra. Aries is thought to be least compatible with those born under the Pisces zodiac sign. As for the rest of compatibilities between the other star signs and Aries, you know what they say, stars predispose but people dispose.

Lucky Color: Red is the lucky color for Aries zodiac.

Red is the color of initiative and attention. It both stimulates and relaxes Aries so they are inclined to choose to surround with many objects of this color. This is also the symbol color for Mars, the ruling planet of the Aries zodiac sign.

Other colors preferred by people born on April 18 are scarlet and carmine.

Representative Birthstone: The birthstone for Aries zodiac is the exquisite Diamond.

Diamonds are not only a girls best friend, they are precious stones that are though to help people clear their minds and take wise decisions. The Diamond is the representative stone for Mars, the ruling planet of the Aries zodiac sign.

Characteristic Flower: The lucky flower for Aries zodiac is the Honeysuckle.

Other flowers suggestive for Aries are Geranium and Ginger.

Symbolic Metal: Iron is the metal considered lucky for Aries zodiac.

This metal suggests the strength and determination of the true Aries. These natives need to be handled with care just like iron rusts if left in moist air.

Just remember that if you really want others to hear you and the important things you have to say, make sure to speak on their level, not from your high horse looking down.

April 18 Aries at Their Best: Honorable, vigorous, fair

April 18 Aries at Their Worst: Unrealistic, combative, unstable

What to Wear: Leggings and tennis shoes. Aries could challenge all the party guests to a foot race on the spur of the moment, and you’ll want to be set.

Who to Invite: Everybody who even remotely knows this dynamic individual — life is, after all, all about Aries!

Where to Go: Outdoors (where there’s plenty of room to roam) or a sports complex that handles everything from basketball and tennis to golf and rock climbing. Everybody who even remotely knows this dynamic individual — life is, after all, all about Aries!

April 18, 2025 Current Moon Phase for the Northern Hemisphere

Source: nineplanets.org

The current moon phase for today is the Waning Gibbous phase.

On this day, the moon is 19.71 days old and 79.53% illuminated with a tilt of -49.308°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 400,078.12 km and the moon sign is Sagittarius.

The Moon phase for today is a Waning Gibbous phase. This is the first phase after the Full Moon where the illumination of the moon decreases each day until it reaches 50% (the Last Quarter phase).

During this phase, the illumination of the moon will go down from 99.% to 50.1%. Technically, the phase starts as soon as the Full Moon has passed, but it can be difficult to calculate and differentiate the first stage of a Waning Gibbous Moon from a Full Moon when 98-99% of the Moon’s surface is illuminated.

Fun fact: the word Gibbous was first used in the 14th century and comes from the latin word gibbosus which means humpbacked.

IF YOUR BIRTHDAY IS ON APRIL 17, you have a restless ambition that is confident more so than any other Arian. You also are equipped with more patience and self-control. You sound like a dream with your creative and innovative qualities.

The 17th April birthday personality will likely be a great leader who has a knack for finding prosperous opportunities. You have more good qualities but a few of your flaws are that you take yourself too seriously.

You can be too honest and you tend to overspend. Overall, Aries, those of you who are born on this day, are awfully caring and understanding individuals.

If today is your birth day, you need to learn how to laugh at yourselves more and stop being so serious all of the time. This Aries birthday person usually bounces back quickly from difficulties. You are humble and responsible. On the other hand, this Aries can be prudent and critical of others.

The April 17th birthday astrology predicts that because you are normally a sensitive person, you can get your feelings hurt easily. Then you slip into this funky mood as if nobody cares about you.

This couldn’t be farther from the truth and you know this, Aries. Brush that negative mood off your shoulders and be happy you’re alive. Life is too short to sulk it away.

The 17 April birthday characteristics show that you are typically cool and mild-mannered but underneath is a smoldering fire with the ability to blaze up at any time.

You probably think about sex many times throughout the day but fear rejection, however. You prefer to take the lead in initiating any romantic interest. You are likely to take control so your lovers can go at their own pace.

The April 17 birthday personality believes that courtship can be the stepping stone to really knowing someone before deciding to make any commitments. You should seek those who share your same unique qualities.

Trust is very important to you but you are very considerate of the needs of your partner. You even make the ultimate compromise if it means that your partner will be happy.

The April 17th birthday horoscope suggests that you should look for opportunities that can be financially beneficial to you and your families. Attaining a position that can pay you above and beyond the usual pay scale helps you climb the ladder of success at a quicker rate.

However, you look for those jobs that do not offer a challenge or any room for advancement. You are capable of many things if you would just take a risk. Those born on this zodiac birthday have good money management skills and resisting the urge to splurge.

You are likely to neglect your body needs. Some Arians take for granted that good health will always be theirs. You will make an appointment but then when the time comes, you cancel but never reschedule. You can be a fussy eater even with a big appetite.

This can pack on the pounds so Aries, you should exercise regularly. Yoga is a recommended choice for exercise and it has other features that do more than strengthen the muscles. It can be used as a relaxation technique that is good for relieving stress.

The 17 April birthday meaning shows that your personality is greatly influenced by your body. When you are in good health, you are in a good mood. You are a very caring person who perhaps needs to pay more attention to life itself.

You don’t really have any great expectations or ambitions. Aries, you are born under the zodiac sign symbol the Ram. You have the ability to choose the life you want and make it happen. In spite of everything, you are levelheaded and can come back from difficult situations quickly and easily.

April 16, 2025 Current Moon Phase for the Northern Hemisphere

Source: nineplanets.org

The current moon phase for today is the Waning Gibbous phase.

On this day, the moon is 17.64 days old and 92.78% illuminated with a tilt of -33.505°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 404,898.50 km and the moon sign is Scorpio.

The Moon phase for today is a Waning Gibbous phase. This is the first phase after the Full Moon where the illumination of the moon decreases each day until it reaches 50% (the Last Quarter phase).

The waning (shrinking) gibbous Moon will rise after sunset in the east, transit the meridian after midnight, before setting after sunrise in the west.

During this phase, the illumination of the moon will go down from 99.% to 50.1%. Technically, the phase starts as soon as the Full Moon has passed, but it can be difficult to calculate and differentiate the first stage of a Waning Gibbous Moon from a Full Moon when 98-99% of the Moon’s surface is illuminated.

Fun fact: the word Gibbous was first used in the 14th century and comes from the latin word gibbosus which means humpbacked.

Otherwise, just open your curtains so moonlight can fill your space.

Meanwhile, walking in the light of a full Moon can be magical. Its gentle glow can have a calming effect, leaving you feeling refreshed and renewed. Stand outside in the light of the full Moon and bathe in its power.

April 13, 2025 Current Moon Phase for the Northern Hemisphere

Source: nineplanets.org

The current moon phase for today is the Full Moon phase.

On this day, the moon is 14.54 days old and 99.96% illuminated with a tilt of 106.542°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 405,863.27 km and the moon sign is Libra.

The Moon phase for today is the Full Moon phase. In this phase, the moon is 100% illuminated when seen from Earth (hence the name Full Moon).

The Full Moon happens when the moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun. The sunlight fully illuminated the moon, and this is what we call being “full”. The moon will be visible throughout the night sky as it rises at sunset in the east, transits the meridian at midnight, before setting at sunrise in the west.

The specific point at which the Full Moon occurs can be measured down to a fraction of a second. The time that passes between full moons is called the Synodic month and is 29.530587981 days long.

Fun fact: lunar eclipses can only happen within a few days of the Full Moon, but they don’t happen for every Full Moon because the moon’s orbit has a 5.1° tilt around the Earth compared to Earth’s orbit around the Sun. Only when the intersection of these two orbits is pointing towards the centre of the Moon do we get a lunar eclipse.
