Aequinoctium Vernum

Colors: Yellow and light green
Element: Earth
Altar: Upon cloth of yellow and light green set a pitcher of rainwater, small dishes of seeds (as many as there are people), a vase of budding branches, and a single green candle.
Offerings: Seeds to be planted in the garden.

Aequinoctium Vernum Invocation

Earth, you begin your awakening
To the touch of the life-giving Sun
Whose rays stroke you like a lover.
Earth, your joy in awakening
Springs forth first golden
And then the green of life.
We awaken to your new life
And your new season,
And you help us to believe
That no matter how long the winter,
Spring will always come again.
We stand in the time of the year’s morning
And, like all living things,
We reach upwards for the sky.

Chant:
We open Earth and
Earth receives you
She gives you life and
We believe in you

(Each takes a pot of seeds and goes to the garden, and hoes or otherwise prepares a space for planting, and then plants their seeds, chanting while doing so. The pitcher of rainwater is carried out and ritually poured onto the seeds.)

Your Daily Cosmic Calendar for March 28th

After two days more akin to happily-ever-after fairy tales than psychologically scary stories, the dark side of the universe begins to reveal itself again as Venus makes a tense, 135-degree link to underworld-ruling Pluto (1:52PM PDT) while one of two annual Sun-Pluto squares is waiting in the wings to pounce on humanity on Thursday. Today’s Venus-Pluto clash is a warning shot that romance, social affairs and the arts may be temporarily vulnerable to bickering and disagreements that could turn would-be harmony into bitter feelings. Thirty minutes earlier an inspirational, 72-degree link from Saturn to Pluto (1:22PM PDT) may have the gravitas to keep dear ones, friends and colleagues in a happy frame of mind. This Saturn-Pluto interaction is also a boon if you want to investigate esoteric philosophy in an in-depth manner. Feel free to change course this evening and enjoy lighthearted discussions with pals under airy Gemini Moon. Immerse yourself in a sci-fi classic, contemporary novel or biography. Try your hand at writing rhymed poetry, limericks or haiku.

Day of Prometheus

Colors: Blue and red
Element: Air
Altar: Upon cloth of blue place a great torch, a large and ugly stone with a chain laid over it, and a great curved blade laid against it.
Offering: Stand up for something that you believe in, even if it will do you harm.
Daily Meal: Vegan

Invocation to Prometheus

Long ago, wars tore the land
And the great and powerful laid waste
To all things, and some won,
and some lost, but the true losers
Were those unfortunate humans
Who were beneath the notice of either side.
One Titan took pity on them,
And tricked the gods who would have
Robbed them of even their food,
And taught them to keep the best part
Of their sacrifices for themselves.
And then, to help them further
In the face of the wrath of the powerful,
He stole fire from the sacred forge
And gave it to weak humanity.
And for this he was punished,
As he knew he would be punished,
Chained to a stone and torn by a vulture.
And yet the knowledge of that punishment
Did not deter him from his goal,
For when there is something that must be done,
And it is right to do it,
Then harm to body and mind
Does not stop right action.
For this we hail Prometheus,
Lord of Forethought,
He who sacrifices for the good of all,
He who knows what it is to be right,
And what will be the consequences.

(All stand before the altar and salute the torch, and speak of their own convictions.)

Feralia: Day of Purification

Color: White
Element: Air
Altar: On a white cloth put a lit candle, incense, a cup of water, and a bowl of salt.
Offering: Although this day is not a day of total silence, it is a solemn day and talking should be done only when necessary and in quiet tones. Bodies should be thoroughly cleaned during the bathing hour, and then the altar area should be cleaned and purified with all four elements. Each person, upon entering the altar space at the beginning of Sponde should remove their clothing and be naked, and each body should be purified with the four elements and marked with water and salt, at which point they may enrobe again. Chores of the day should concentrate on cleaning and repair.
Daily Meal: Vegan and extremely simple and plain.

Feralia Invocation

Breathe the air into your body
And breathe out again,
And as you breathe out,
Let all grime and corruption
Depart on that breath
(All breathe together for twelve breaths.)
Feel the blood coursing through your body
And imagine it clean
Of anything but what should be there.
Feel the energy coursing through your body
And wash it clean
Of anything that does not belong.
Feel the Earth beneath you,
Remember that She can absorb all
Remember that all rot is her provenance
Draw her energy up into you
And give it back again.

(After this grounding, all breathe together again in a yogic breathing pattern for the next half an hour, after which all will go with water and salt and incense and fire to all rooms in the house and cleanse them. Great care should be taken for the rest of the day not to disturb the energy of the freshly cleaned house.)

New Moon Report for March 22nd – New Moon in Aries

New Moon Report for March 22

by Jeff Jawer

New Moon in Aries

Thursday, March 22, 7:38 am PDT, 10:38 am EDT

The Aries New Moon is a rocket launcher, a blast-off moment and a fresh start for the new astrological year. This pioneering sign propels us into unknown territory, bravely (or blindly) jumping into the future. Innovative Uranus and brainy Mercury join this lunation to spark unconventional perceptions and fire up original ideas. We may get a little ahead of ourselves and impatiently force issues that aren’t quite ready for prime time. Concepts flying by at the speed of light must be slowed down to give them a chance to be examined.

The Aries New Moon is the beginning of both the Moon’s monthly cycle and the Sun’s annual cycle. The passion of this Fire sign spurs us to blaze new trails and experiment with original projects and unfamiliar forms of behavior. Starting things now might be easy, but sticking to them could be more difficult. The urge for personal freedom inspires independent action that can be bold and exciting, yet impulsive acts may rub some people the wrong way. Considering the feelings of others is essential to maintaining harmony when exploring new territory.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for March 22nd

You can breathe a first sigh of relief at 2:58AM PDT when yesterday’s long void lunar cycle in Pisces ends and the Moon enters fiery Aries. However, the New Moon – energizing 3 degrees of Aries – doesn’t occur until 7:38AM PDT. Therefore, between 2:58AM PDT and 7:38AM PDT, the dark-of-the-moon vibes are at white-hot intensity and this implies the need to finish odd jobs and old projects with skills and zeal. It is during the extreme dark-of-the-moon, closing-down energy-field that the Moon unites with Mercury retrograde in Aries (4:51AM PDT) – charging your mind and thought process with remembrances of times past. A wave of nostalgia can wash over you. Once the New Moon clocks in at 7:38AM PDT, it is incumbent upon you to be more courageous as a leader and pioneer who strikes while the iron is hot. Nevertheless, uncertainty and surprises are rife since Mars in Virgo opposes Chiron in Pisces (8:22AM PDT), the Moon unites with shock-inducer Uranus in Aries (11:37AM PDT), Mercury parallels productivity-enhancer Ceres (3:07PM PDT), and the Sun makes a potent, electrifying parallel to Uranus (6:25PM PDT). While the Mars-Chiron polarity can signify troubles afflicting romantic partners and business associates, the Moon and Sun aligning with Uranus can be tweaked to give you amazing insights about the shape of things to come. Expecting the unexpected should be your motto. Helping you smooth over differences with dear ones, friends and colleagues is an inspirational, 72-degree rapport from Venus to Chiron (11:37PM PDT). Positive ties between Venus and Chiron are very often reinforcement links that can bring soul-mates into greater harmony and happiness.

Aurora Over Iceland
Image Credit & Copyright: Daniel Lopez (El Cielo de Canarias)  

 

Explanation: If you see a sky like this — photograph it. Three nights ago in Iceland, an adventurous photographer (pictured) chanced across a sky full of aurora and did just that. Afterwards, by stitching together five smaller photographs, the entire aurora-lit sky was recreated in this 180-degree panorama taken from Vatnajökull glacier. Auroras are sparked by energetic particles from the Sun impacting the magnetic environment around the Earth. Resultant energetic particles such as electrons and protons rain down near the Earth’s poles and impact the air. The impacted air molecules obtain excited electrons, and when electrons in oxygen molecules fall back to their ground state, they emit green light. Auroras are known to have many shapes and colors.

Your Daily Cosmic Calendar for March 21

Every so often a dark-of-the-moon cycle (when the New Moon is on the verge of happening) crosses swords with a lengthy void-of-course lunar time-period. That fairly rare cosmic energy-field is in effect at 1:40AM PDT when the Moon in Pisces becomes void and this condition lasts over 24 hours until 2:58AM PDT tomorrow when the Moon enters Aries. The bottom line is that while several celestial alignments are vying for supremacy today, it is wise to complete old business on a high note and not push your personal agenda to make things happen your way. Here’s a list of the key aspects going on today as Mercury makes a frictional, 45-degree tie to Venus (1:18AM PDT), the Moon forms a supportive, 60-degree link to Venus (1:40AM PDT), Ceres makes an abrasive, 135-degree contact with Mars (3:02AM PDT), Mercury makes a subtle, 30-degree rapport with Neptune (8:11AM PDT), the Moon parallels Uranus (10:12AM PDT), the Sun and Mercury form an important Inferior Conjunction or Earth, Mercury and Sun line-up at 2 degrees of Aries (12:22PM PDT), the Sun makes a subtle, 30-degree tie to Neptune (4:25PM PDT), Juno squares Mars (6:35PM PDT), and the Moon parallels Ceres (7:57PM PDT) and Mercury (10:30PM PDT). Yikes! Ten sky patterns are in this list and the Earth, Mercury and Sun line-up in the solar system is no slouch. Cosmic seed-ideas are seeking to enter curious and open human minds that can take hold of them and translate them into winning formulas for earthly success in a wide variety of realms of knowledge, business and professional work. However, because of the all-consuming void lunar cycle, matched up with the dark-of-the-moon vibes, some cautionary behavior is recommended.

Day of the Ram – Beginning of Aries
Quinquatria Day 2: Wrestling Day

Colors: Red
Element: Fire
Altar: Set with red cloth and a sheepskin, weapons such as swords and spears, a cradle with an infant doll surrounded with spring flowers, a ram’s horn, and above all a burning torch.
Offerings: Candles. Small weapons. An act of courage. In the morning, the exercise of Gymnastika shall be wrestling, in honor of the second day of the Panathenaea when there were wrestling competitions, and each shall name their opponent for a knotty problem they have been wrestling with, and shall wrestle with each other in such a way that neither be hurt or harmed, but give a fair struggle.
Daily Meal: Spicy food – chiles, cayenne, etc.

Invocation to Aries

Infant of the Springtime,
Warrior of the long spear
And the short temper,
Ram who protects his flock,
Fiery torch of First Light,
Whose gift is Bravery,
Bless us with the courage
To do what we know is right,
And to never walk ashamed.
By the power of all beginnings,
You challenge us
To defend each other from attack,
Abuse, scorn, and mistreatment,
Even if it endangers our own bodies and spirits.
May we all go forth
In courageous innocence.
Chant:
Fire burn, fire burn through me, bonfire, brush fire, lightning strike,
Fire burn, fire burn through me, fire heart, give me light.

(Let one who has been chosen to work for this ritual stand in the center of the room with a large lit red candle, of a wax that will not burn skin but only make pain, and each shall come forth and hold out their hand to receive the wax, and s/he shall say, “Have courage and hold fast,” and drip the wax upon them, until they pull away their hand. Then they shall say, “I am tested,” and stand back. At the last shall s/he receive the wax herself, and then set the candle to burn upon the altar.)

Your Daily Cosmic Calendar for Tuesday, March 20th

Did you take full advantage of last night’s solar shift from the end of Pisces to the beginning of Aries? If not, utilize the first few hours today to be more gung-ho and assertive with your key plans and aims for the next year of your life. Healing forces are definitely on the march – courtesy of the monthly Moon-Chiron union in Pisces (6:02AM PDT). Be more compassionate and empathic to the truly needy and disenfranchised. This is reinforced a few hours later when Venus makes a contra-parallel to Pluto (10:15AM PDT). Venus in cahoots with Pluto in this kind of liaison can equate with a rising tide of challenges for lovers and business partners. Be a good listener who is ready to lend a helping hand rather than a critic who would rather disagree than find common ground. Mercury and Chiron also form a contra-parallel formation (2:52PM PDT) and this association can assist you in building bridges of trust and friendship with many people in your community and around the world. Dust off your problem-solving skills later on when the Moon makes its monthly union with Pallas (5:00PM PDT). This can also be a good time-period for having strategy sessions, conducting research and strengthening your immune system. Be ready to dance the night away as the Moon in Pisces can give you happy feet.

Quinquatria Day I: Racing Day

Colors: Red and blue
Element: Fire
Altar: Upon cloth of red (for Ares) and blue (for Athena), place a sword, a spear, a shield, a length of hand-woven cloth, red and blue candles, a book and a pen, and two chalices, one filled with spiced wine or beer, and one with carbonated seltzer water.
Offerings: Engage in a struggle of some kind. To honor Ares, make it physical; to honor Athena, make it mental. The morning exercise hour should begin with running or fast walking, as this was traditionally Racing Day.
Daily Meal: Light, nutritious, high-protein, as for an athlete.

Quinquatria Invocation I

We pray now to Ares,
Bright warrior who has no fear,
Hot of head and heart, you run
The extra mile with your passion,
You are the one who will never give up.
And we pray to Athena,
Armored one, keen of vision,
Cool of head and heart, you always keep
Yourself a ways apart from the crowd,
Yet from there you can see further
Than we can at our close distance.
We ask for your blessings, warriors hot and cold,
Tactician and strategist, one who sees the way
To the goal, and one who has the courage to reach it,
For both are of equal value in this our struggle
To keep from being beaten down
By the many enemies that spring from
Our hearts and minds and lives.
Bless us, fearless ones,
And lead us down the straight path
To glory, to accomplishment, to the goal.

(Each comes forth and takes one of the weapons, and salutes the altar twice, calling out “Hail Athena!” and “Hail Ares!” The seltzer is poured out as a libation to Athena, and the spiced drink is poured out for Ares. In the workday to come, everyone should take on some physical task that strains them to their limit, and tests that limit, or if they are disabled, some organizational task requiring uncharacteristically complex strategizing.)

Daily Cosmic Calendar for March 19th

As the first workday of this week, there could be some strange vibrations going on since the Sun is not only located in the last degree of Pisces, but also in the last degree of the archetypal zodiac that starts with zero degrees of Aries around this date every year. The zodiac contains 360-degrees of space – like any geometric circle – and the solar life-force is now ending one cycle and, at 10:16PM PDT, starting a new cycle. Therefore, much of today’s 24-hour astro-psychic energy-field is filled with a solar dynamic that is harkening back to the past few weeks and months. You may want to mimic this reasoning and conduct a careful review of your last twelve months as a soul-infused personality dwelling on this planet some 93 million miles away from the star that rules over our cosmic neighborhood in the Milky Way galaxy. Re-evaluating your investment and business strategies certainly makes sense because Vesta forms a subtle and yet still important, 30-degree rapport with king of the gods Jupiter (Noon PDT). The Moon enters a 3+ hour void uncertainty zone in Aquarius at 1:32PM PDT and this ends at 5:06PM PDT when the lunar orb enters Piscean waters for the next 2+ days. Tune into your creative imaginative talents, experiment with a video camera or improvise on a favorite musical instrument when the Moon unites with Neptune (8:18PM PDT). Utilize the Sun’s entry into fiery Aries (10:16PM PDT) – one of four sacred turning points of the calendar year at either an equinox or solstice – as an opportunity to take a great leap forward with key enterprises that can give you an enormous boost across the board during the next twelve months.
