OSTARA LORE

 

OSTARA LORE

A traditional Vernal Equinox pastime: go to a field and randomly collect wildflowers [Thank the flowers for their sacrifice before picking them, using a collection formula such as can be found in “An Herbal Grimoire”]. Or buy some from a florist, taking one or two of those that appeal to you. Then bring them home and divine their magickal meanings by the use of books, your own intuition, a pendulum or by other means. The flowers you’ve chosen reveal your inner thoughts and emotions.

It is important at this time of renewed life to plan a walk (or a ride) through gardens, a park, woodlands, forest and other green places. This is not simply exercise, and you should be on no other mission. It isn’t even just an appreciation of nature. Make your walk celebratory, a ritual for nature itself.

Other traditional activities include planting seeds, working on magickal gardens and practicing all forms of herb work – magickal, medicinal, cosmetic, culinary and artistic.

Foods in tune with this day (linking your meals with the seasons is a fine way of attuning with nature) include those made of seeds, such as sunflower, pumpkin and sesame seeds, as well as pine nuts.

Sprouts are equally appropriate, as are leafy, green vegetables. Flower dishes such as stuffed nasturtiums or carnation cupcakes also find their place here. [Find a book of flower cooking or simply make spice cupcakes. Ice with pink frosting and place a fresh carnation petal on each cupcake. Stuff nasturtium blossoms with a mixture made with cream cheese, chopped nuts, chives and watercress.]

Angel of Thursday: Archangel Zadkiel or Archangel Sachiel

There are references which list Zadkiel and Sachiel as the same being… However, my experience is that they each have an individualized Divine I Am Core, so I’ll describe them both for you here.

Archangel Zadkiel “Righteousness of God” 

Zadkiel carries the flame of righteousness and forgiveness and will assist you in releasing any forgiveness held towards yourself or others so that you can remember the full truth of who you are. Forgiveness will assist you in releasing heavy emotions like fear and anger into the light to be transmuted back into love.  Archangel Zadkiel is happy to help you strengthen your connection with the Divine. He can also help you to transmute negative back into pure light, and positive energy, with the Violet Flame.

Archangel Sachiel “The Covering of God”

Sachiel or Sachael is an angel of wealth, water, success and prosperity. Sachiel’s energy is big, bright, soothing and incredibly uplifting. His bright loving presence brings hope, inspires health, cuts through negative emotional energy, depression and despair by reconnecting you with the true authenticity of your soul light and purpose. Sachiel supports with expansion and growth in all ways, helping those who call upon him to sync with the flow abundance, prosperity and good fortune.

Moon Alert

Caution! Avoid shopping or making important decisions after 6:45 AM EDT today and for the rest of the day. (3:45 AM to 10 PM PDT). The Moon is in Leo.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

There is a Moon Alert today, which means refrain from spending money, except on food and gas. However, this particular Moon Alert is in a creative part of your chart, which means your artistic energy will soar! Use this however you can. You are the artisan of the zodiac.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You can best use today’s energy to hunker down at home and relate to family in a genuine, more open way. That’s because all today is a Moon Alert, which will encourage you to let your hair down and tell it like it is. Postpone important decisions until tomorrow.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This is a loosey-goosey day! There is a Moon Alert all day, which might make you feel indecisive and unsure of what to do next. It’s a good day to explore new ideas as well as brainstorm thoughts with others. Wait until tomorrow to settle on anything.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Do be aware of the restrictions of today’s Moon Alert because it is taking place in your Money House. Restrict spending to food and gas. Postpone important decisions and financial matters until tomorrow.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Today, virtually all day, there is a Moon Alert in Leo! This means your mind is freewheeling and soaring like a helium balloon cut free in the sky. You will more easily grasp creative ideas because you can think outside of the box. But wait until tomorrow to agree to anything important.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Because there is a Moon Alert today occurring in a hidden part of your chart, this is an excellent day for meditation, yoga or any quiet activity that helps to calm your mind and make you feel more grounded. Restrict spending to food and gas.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Relations with friends as well as members of groups will be friendly and possibly, more frank than usual because of today’s Moon Alert. Nevertheless, don’t volunteer for anything or agree to anything important.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You are high viz. today, which means other people notice you more than usual, especially bosses, VIPs and the police. Because of the Moon Alert, you might make a mistake or be confused. Don’t volunteer for anything. Wait until tomorrow to make any kind of commitment.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Today there is a Moon Alert in effect all day, which will allow you to explore ideas you don’t normally consider. It will make it easier for you to listen to people whose views are different from yours. Nevertheless, wait until tomorrow to agree to anything important.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

The Moon Alert today, which is in effect all day, takes place in your House of Other People’s Money. This means this is a poor day to make decisions about shared property, taxes, debt or insurance issues. Do your research but wait until tomorrow to sign the dotted line.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Relations with partners and close friends will be fuzzy today because there is a Moon Alert happening all day long opposite your sign. This will promote honest and open conversations, but they might be confusing. Don’t hold anyone to anything today. All bets are off until tomorrow.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Issues at work might be clouded and confused because of today’s Moon Alert. Expect shortages and delays. Carry on with business as usual as best you can but wait until tomorrow to make important decisions. (With four planets in your sign, you will all the cards.)

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Eva Longoria (1975) shares your birthday today. You are hard-working and responsible. You are also very persuasive when you want to be. You are a caring person and always helpful to others. This year there is a strong focus on personal responsibility and service to others, which is why you must take excellent care of yourself. In fact, some of you might even consider a makeover.

Moon Alert

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

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Oops! Tread carefully because this week begins on a difficult note. Aggressive and sudden interruptions that might affect your money, your possessions, your earnings or a friendship are possible. Keep your eyes open. Think before you speak. Know what’s going on.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This is a tricky day. Today people feel rebellious, critical and even distrustful of each other. Family members, especially females, might not agree with you. It’s hard to reach a consensus. You might feel this same resistance when dealing with authority figures. Stay cool.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This is the classic day for arguments about social causes – politics, religion, racial issues or any kind of disagreement. Think twice before you say anything today because people are touchy! Nevertheless, listen with respect because each person believes in their own ideas.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Keep an eye on your possessions today, as well as your money and your assets because something unexpected could impact your wealth or something that you own. It might affect your cash flow. Check banking details and agreements about inheritances. Don’t be casual or indifferent to these things.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

“It was Monday. It was Monday all day.” Today the Moon is in your sign at odds with wild, wacky Uranus and opposing Venus. This means that you will have difficulty dealing with partners and close friends. You might also encounter difficulty dealing with authority figures – bosses, parents and the police. Stay chill.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Something going on behind the scenes might make you nervous today. You will feel restless, even jumpy, whether you know why this is the case or not. The main thing to know is that this is a brief influence, so don’t get your belly in a rash. Note: Travel plans might suddenly change.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Romantic relationships are rocky today. Likewise, parents should be extra vigilant and keep an eye on their kids because this is an accident-prone day for the children. Social plans might suddenly change. Sports accidents are also likely. (Yikes!) Be alert.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Today it might be obvious to others that you are at odds with someone, perhaps a family member or a close friend. You can be very wilful. You often come on stronger than you suspect, which is intimidating to others. Lighten up. (We love you.)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is the classic day for arguments about theories, philosophies and popular beliefs. Religion, politics and racial issues might be in the mix. Unfortunately, there are none so deaf as those who are wearing headphones. Don’t try to be right.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Disputes about money and shared property might arise today. Or they might be disputes related to sports events or the care and maintenance of children. Some of you might argue about the cost of a social occasion or vacation. Things are dicey today.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Today the Moon is at odds with Venus in your sign as well as your ruler Uranus. This makes everyone, including you, rebellious and impulsive. A disappointment might trigger these feelings. Obviously, this is not an ideal day for socializing.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You might find yourself at odds with someone at work today. Perhaps this dispute is about a hidden love affair? Or it might be because of a new modern take on something that throws tradition out the window. Things are changing so fast it’s hard to know where to stand. Make sure that you are fair-minded and that you act for the greater good. This way you have your self-respect.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Physicist Albert Einstein (1879-1955) shares your birthday today. You are intelligent, creative, multitalented and versatile. You have an active imagination and enjoy daydreaming. You are easy-going but sometimes moody. This is an exciting year full of change, progress and growth. It might mean letting go of something. Stay on your toes and be ready for new opportunities coming your way!

Moonstone Travel Spell

Moonstone Travel Spell

This spell will call on Meness, the patron moon god of travelers.

Find a spot that faces east or that is illuminated by moonlight. Or try setting this up under the moon, in the garden, or on the porch or your outside deck. Get some atmosphere sphere going! Try using a scented candle, such as jasmine or gardenia, to coordinate the fragrance with the moon’s energies.

Gather the following items:
• A photo of your destination, your travel itinerary, or your airline tickets
• 4 small tumbled moonstones
• A scented white votive candle and holder
• A lighter or matches

Set up this spell on a safe, flat surface. Light the candle and place it in the holder. Place your paperwork/tickets or itinerary to one side of the candle. Arrange the four stones in a circle around the holder. Place your hands on the travel paperwork, and ground and center. Then repeat the following spell three times:

Meness, patron of travelers, watch over me
Whether I travel in the air, on the land or sea
Like a talisman in my pocket a stone will I tuck
Moonstones do encourage a safe journey and bring good luck.

Take one of the stones and keep it in your pocket while you travel. You may close the spell by saying:

For the good of all, with harm to none By the moon and stars, this spell is done.

Gather up your papers and tuck them away for your trip. Allow the candle to burn out on its own. If you performed this outside, then move your candle and the remaining stones indoors to let the candle safely finish burning. Never leave your candles unattended.

Developing your Spiritual Abilities? What are the “Clairs”?

When a person begins to awaken to their true self and divine potential, spiritual or psychic gifts will begin to emerge and develop.

Here is some information about the different kinds of ‘Clairs’ that describe some of these abilities and a few tips to help you practice.

‘Clair’ is from the French language and means ‘clear’. There are a number of ‘Clairs’ that we all have the ability to use.

Clairvoyance

The term we all recognise the most is clairvoyance. ‘Voyance’ means ‘vision’, so clairvoyance means clear vision.

A psychic vision is a term used to describe the way that those who are clairvoyant receive messages from Spirit. It usually begins with very short periods of ‘seeing’ things.

It is possible you may be able to see a ‘picture’ and the more you develop this gift the more detailed the vision will be and the length of time you will ‘see’ it will also increase.

Clairaudience

Clairaudience means clear hearing.

Clairaudience may start when you are very young or during meditation. You may hear a voice speaking to you, or you may hear other sounds, such as music. Spirit plays me songs all the time!

This may be your guides or other…

Weekly Horoscope Sunday, March 13 to Saturday, March 19, 2022

Click here for Georgia Nicols’ Daily Horoscopes 

All Signs

This week has challenges that will affect people’s emotions. Unfortunately, it will be easy to express displeasure and overreact to things. (“Not me!”) It will also be harder to be independent and do your own thing. In addition, as the week progresses, energy will build up to the Full Moon on Friday, which happily, will be an easier Full Moon because it is the opposition of Moon in Virgo with the Sun in Pisces. (Some Full Moons are easier than others.) Without question, my advice for the week is to “go along to get along.” Patience is a virtue. Therefore, tread carefully. Be patient. Be kind. Be tolerant. And remember that what the big print giveth, the small print taketh away.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

This will be a challenging week because you might feel a bit powerless. (It will be two steps forward and one step back kinda thing, which is better than one step forward and two steps back.) It’s an axiomatic truth that there is always better and there’s always worse. Fortunately, friends will be supportive to you this week. However, you might feel competitive with someone, either an individual or a group. By the end of the week, the Full Moon on Friday might create angst dealing with pets, your health or your coworkers. But hey, the light at the end of the tunnel is on Sunday when the Sun enters Aries to stay for four weeks. Yeehaw!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This is a popular time for you! You are active with groups as well as younger people. Your ambition is aroused and bosses, parents and VIPs are favourably disposed to you. Having said that, you will encounter some speed bumps dealing with everyone this week. Romance will be rocky. Relations with your kids might be challenged, especially Thursday and Friday. Even though authority figures have your back, they will want you to ask for permission or forgiveness. (Oh yeah. There’s no free lunch.) Respect their authority or someone might go full Godfather on you. (Never underestimate the power of courtesy.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

As it will be for everyone, this is a challenging week for you, too. Fortunately, you have the edge because the Sun is at the top of your chart casting you in a flattering spotlight. (It’s important to look good at a distance.) Avoid controversial subjects like politics, religion and racial issues because this is just asking for trouble. Why even go there? (Don’t get even – get odd.) As the week progresses, you will feel pulled between the demands of home and family and the demands of your career and your external world. That’s because of the Full Moon energy. With this particular Full Moon, you can’t ignore your public persona. Smile for the camera.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You will find this week challenging because you’re in a freedom-loving mode. You want to travel. You want to do what you want to do. You want to go places! You also want to explore new avenues in publishing, higher education and the media as well as medicine and the law. The problem is you will meet with obstacles and delays in your attempts to pursue these opportunities. In fact, by Thurs./Fri., at the time of the Full Moon, it’s an accident-prone time for you, which means slow down and pay attention to everything you say and do. (It’s time to send out for dark chocolate and listen to “Wide Open Spaces”.)

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This week you have a strong focus on money, cash flow and especially, your responsibilities for someone else that affect your financial scene. You are also gathering papers and getting ready to deal with taxes, debt and insurance issues. (This stuff doesn’t go away on its own.) Fortunately, you are royalty. You are strong and indomitable, which means you can deal with whatever is in your path. One step at a time. (Ignore that ominous sonar beep.) It’s important to be calm and patient with others because Mars is opposite your sign and this can trigger relationships glitches with those who are closest to you. Fortunately, Venus is also opposite your sign, which will help ameliorate difficulties. Make nice with everyone.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Whoa Nellie! You’re in work mode, which means you will get a lot done and others will be supportive. This applies to your job, your dealings with a pet, as well as anything related to your health. (It’s fortunate that you have the energy to work; and that others will be helpful to you.) However, be aware that this week, your challenge will be with close friends, spouses and partners. Obviously, patience will be your best ally. And you will need to be patient with others as Friday approaches bringing the only Full Moon in your sign all year! (Gulp!) Stay chill. You’ve got this. Alice Walker said, “The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don’t have any.”

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This might be an exhausting week for you because you’re attempting to do a lot. You’re busting your buns working hard, as well as dealing with social situations and matters related to sports and the entertainment world. (Even romance will be challenging.) Remember: You’re a people pleaser, and you try to be all things to all people, which is impossible. Ironically, if you just please yourself, you’ll cover most of the bases anyway. It easy to get hung up on priorities, especially sorting out the people in your life. Remember – when the plane hits the tarmac, coach arrives at the same time as first-class. Keep it simple.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This week you’re full of playful, fun-loving energy, and your creative juices are flowing! This will trigger social situations, sports events and activities with your kids. Meanwhile, you’ve got increased chaos and activity on the home front. So, the bases are loaded. Get as much done as possible at home; and be patient with family members. Redecorating and tweaking your digs will appeal. (When you decide to get stuff done – you’re a machine!) You might find that as the week progresses, and the Full Moon on Friday approaches, difficulties with kids and romantic partners will intensify. Fortunately, after the Full Moon peaks, these same problems will diminish and sometimes they even disappear!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Your energy is strong with respect to home, family and your private life this week. Nevertheless, you’re out there flying your colours and you’re direct in your communications with others. Fortunately, fair Venus will soften your words. Venus will also help you appreciate your daily surroundings, which is important (and a value that many people underestimate). Despite this focus on your private world, ironically, you are high viz., which means people notice you more than usual, plus they seem to know about your private life. Expect to feel pulled between the demands of home and family versus the demands of your career and public reputation. You will definitely feel this by Friday. Stay chill. You cannot ignore home and family.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is a fast-paced week and a squirrely one! You’ve got things to do, places to go and people to see. Short trips, appointments, errands plus increased reading and writing are some reasons you are hopping! You also have a strong focus on finances and earnings. Meanwhile, many of you are spending money on beautiful things for yourself and loved ones. Be careful this week because it is a mildly accident-prone time for you. The Full Moon energy will build slowly until Friday, and this could create arguments with others as well as accident-prone situations driving, cycling, walking and jogging. Therefore, be alert! By the weekend, a shift happens. (“What? I thought I was on days?”)

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is a high-energy week for you because fiery Mars is in your sign, along with fair Venus and stern Saturn. If possible, any kind of physical energy will benefit you this week because it will give you a chance to blow off any pent-up steam building up within your system. (Working with electronics is also good for your electrical system as well.) Check the Moon Alerts in my daily columns so that you can confidently shop for wardrobe goodies for yourself. Meanwhile, prepare for some financial challenges this week that intensify until Friday. The good news is that after the Full Moon peaks on Friday, these challenges will mellow immediately. (Whew!)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This week there’s good news and there’s bad news. The bad news is that there is a lot of lunar oppositions taking place this week; in particular, as the week progresses the energy “against” your sign will increase until the Full Moon occurs on Friday – it being the only Full Moon opposite your sign all year. Naturally, this will create situations where you find yourself at odds with others. You might be impatient with partners and close friends. They might be impatient with you. Arguments could occur. The best way to handle this is to demonstrate tolerance, kindness and patience because after all, who wants to be miserable? No one! The good news is the Sun, Mercury, Jupiter and Neptune are all in your sign, which is a blessing as well as an empowering energy. (“The Force is strong in this one.”)

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or making important decisions from 11:30 AM to 4 PM EDT today (8:30 AM to 1 PM PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Cancer into Leo.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Today you might have an interest in hidden research or the occult. You might also be interested in the welfare of those who are in prison or in a hospital. You might make others aware of the plight of people who are trapped in some way.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Today you might choose to work on behalf of a charitable institution because you want to benefit others, especially an organized way. Or perhaps, you are concerned about the welfare of a friend because you feel sensitive to the needs of others.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

If you can use your influence with people in power to help those in need, you will do so today. Or perhaps, you feel that it is hopeless? This is the flipside of this astrological influence. You might just feel world-weary.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Today you have a genuine concern for those who are less fortunate, especially people who are living in other countries or distant places. You want to help them if possible. You also want to raise the awareness of their situation to others.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Today you will be generous to others, especially if they are less fortunate than you because you feel a genuine concern for them. This could be someone close to you, perhaps your partner or close friend; or it could be a stranger in another country. (Avoid financial decisions during the Moon Alert.)

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Today you want to help a friend or partner, or someone close to you because you feel they need your support. In fact, you might feel more concerned about them than your own needs. However, remember that you have to take care of yourself first, or you will be of no use to anyone else.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Something might make you world-weary and discouraged today about your ability to help people who are suffering or people who are less fortunate. The problem seems to be overwhelming. Forget eagle mind and focus on mouse mind. Start with small steps.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Today you are sensitive to the needs of children. These might be your own children or children who are strangers. You are also more in touch with your fantasy world and your creative energy today, which is why you might become involved in artistic activities.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You feel keenly sympathetic to a family member today. If you can help this person, you will. Some of you might also explore an interest in the occult or paranormal activity with a family member. This could be anything from Ouija boards to seeking out a psychic.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Your imagination is heightened today, which is why you might spend a lot of time daydreaming or being lost in a fantasy world. You feel a need to escape your daily obligations. You want to evade the reality of your everyday challenges. Relax, this is temporary.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

If making financial decisions or shopping today, be aware of the Moon Alert (see above). Also, the Sun is lined up with Neptune, which makes you want to help anyone in need. This is a noble aspiration, but you need to be grounded to be effective.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Today the Sun is lined up with your ruler Neptune, which greatly stimulates your awareness. It makes you more sensitive to others and more concerned with the benefit of their welfare than your own.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor William H. Macy (1959) shares your birthday today. You are quietly reserved but very determined. You are caring, compassionate and sensitive to the needs of others. You are an independent thinker. You are always generous. This is a year of hard work and construction, which means you will build something. What you build might be external and physical, or it could be an internal structure in your life.

Tales from the Unwavering Witchlett Chapter #2

By: F❄️REST DEVI✨
 
Merry meet kindred souls, welcome! If you have tripped across this blog, know that it is not by chance. I believe, nothing happens by chance. Everything has a divine purpose. There are no coincidences in life, only synchronicity ‘s attempting to take us where we need to be on our journey.
It has been far too long since I have shared my story with y’all. For it has been quite the challenge I must say, body, mind, and spirit! But I am still above ground so I SHALL continue on my journey.
As we all know, being ill can be extraordinarily difficult. With the pandemic that large I’m sure all of us have experienced a form or two of difficulty. It certainly hasn’t been fun! With multiple sclerosis and THEN contracting the latest form of Covid I thought I would be pushing Up daisies. But instead, I am here to share with you something I learned. Something I’m sure some of you may already know. When you feel like you cannot endure much more pain, know that this pain is going to be part of your product! Because when Life knocks you down & the messenger of misery comes for you, what are you going to do?” What is it going to take to get you back up on your feet again?! I have learned when you overcome life’s biggest trials, you will look back & discover they were not a curse but a blessing in disguise. If it wasn’t for them, we would not grow. These challenges offer us the chance for personal spiritual and physical growth as human beings.
Oh, & yep, you’re stuck with me, lol!! I hear lesson nine calling my name.
So my friends, if you are like me and have seemed to take in the advanced course in life, hold your ground! One of my favorite sayings,” Tough times never last, but as tough people do. “
And speaking of courses I want to say a public THANK YOU to Lady Beltane. I appreciate all of your compassion, and patience as I battle my physical issues. I sure am thankful for every bit of it! That’s from the bottom of my heart! I don’t know how many others would’ve been as patient.

Ogham

From symbolsage.com

Beith/Beth

The first letter of the ogham tree alphabet, Beith stands for birch, and corresponds to the letter B. Also called Beth, it represents new beginnings, change, and rebirth. In Celtic legend, the first ogham ever written was Beith, which served as a warning and protective talisman of the god Ogma.

Its symbolism is derived from the birch, a pioneer tree that first repopulated the region after the Ice Age. The symbol has strong associations with spring and the Beltane festival, being the chosen tree for the maypole and the fuel for the Beltane fires. The birch is also associated with Bloddeuwedd, the Welsh goddess of flowers and springtime.

Symbolically, Beith protects one against all harm, physical and spiritual. The birch is also known as the white tree, associating it with purity, and is used for purification and removing bad luck.

Moon Alert

After 2:30 AM EST there are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The Moon is in Cancer.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Your focus is on home and family today. (You might choose to cocoon at home.) Nevertheless, this is a good time for you to formulate goals and actively pursue them. Athletics and physical activity with friends and groups will pump your energy. Oh yeah!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Because you identify strongly with whatever you’re doing now, in addition to which your ambition is aroused, this could create conflict with coworkers. Possibly they are threatened by your efforts to get ahead? Tact is your best choice today.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You have the energy to do a lot of creative, intellectual work right now. This is a good thing. You might even have influence over others when it comes to sharing your thoughts about social issues, philosophy, religion or politics. If shopping today, stick with practical items.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

The Moon is in your sign today, which gives you a slight edge over all the other signs. Why not test this and ask the universe for a favour? Meanwhile, disputes about jointly-held resources or shared property or how to deal with a limited amount of money might arise. Check your ego at the door.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You need some quiet time today. If you can find solitude in beautiful surroundings, give yourself this pleasure and luxury because you need to catch your breath. While Mars is opposite your sign, relations with partners might be testy! Practise patience.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Respect your need for more sleep now because this is a fact. Ironically, Mars is actually giving you energy to work hard, which might fool you into thinking you’re invincible. A heart-to-heart conversation with someone might be important today.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

People notice you today! In fact, they might be talking about you, especially about the personal details in your private life. (Just be aware of this.) Lately, it’s a bit challenging to gather the necessary discipline to work because you would rather play and do exactly what you want to do. (It happens.)

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is a supportive day for you because the Moon is in your fellow Water sign. Meanwhile, you want to do something different! You want to explore new ideas and meet people from different backgrounds because you have a desire to expand your world. You want to shake things up a little!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

The tempo of your everyday life has certainly picked up lately. Fortunately, your energy is high and you can handle this faster pace. However, because you identify strongly with your ideas and your opinions now, you might be argumentative. Oops!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Today the Moon is opposite your sign, which means you have to go more than halfway when dealing with others. This means you have to be cooperative and tolerant. Demonstrate grace under pressure. Meanwhile, be smart and use your own possessions to get things done.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Once every two years fiery Mars is in your sign. That’s what’s happening right now for this month. The upside is it gives you a chance to show the world what you can do. The downside is you might be coming on too strong for others.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is a fun-loving day for you. If you can socialize with others online or in person, by all means, do so. You will enjoy romantic contacts, as well as playful activities with kids. You have a strong need to talk to others now because you have something to say!

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Jodie Comer (1993) shares your birthday today. You have an innate wisdom, which makes you caring and compassionate. You are intuitive and emotionally sensitive. You often have many things going on at the same time in your life. This is a slower paced year. It’s a time to rest and rejuvenate yourself. It’s time to concentrate on your needs and what brings you happiness.

Caution! Avoid shopping or making important decisions from 11:30 AM EST for the rest of the day (8:30 AM to 11:30 PM PST). The Moon is in Gemini.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Because of the Moon Alert today, your mind is full of creative ideas! Although you have the benefit of the flexible mind today, wait until tomorrow to sign important papers or to agree to anything.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Be careful! Today the Moon Alert is in your Money House, which will tempt you to shop for many things! But this is a poor day to spend your money on anything other than food and gas. See Moon Alert above for your time zone. Be smart.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Most of this day is a Moon Alert, which is taking place in your sign. (Oh yeah.) The good news is you will feel free and more in touch with your creativity. You will be imaginative and full of fun impulses. The bad news is you can’t trust your judgment. Restrict spending to food and gas.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Very likely, you feel indecisive today. You might not be sure what to do. Pay attention to this quality and postpone important decisions until tomorrow. That’s because most of this day is a Moon Alert. This is a fine day to talk to people; but don’t agree to anything important.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You will enjoy schmoozing with friends in person or online today. You will also be happy to be in touch with fellow members of groups and organizations. However, because today there is a Moon Alert for most of the day, postpone important decisions until tomorrow.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Today’s Moon Alert is taking place at the top of your chart, which means that you are more high viz. than usual. Unfortunately, you might appear indecisive or unsure what to do. Worse yet, you might make an important decision that later backfires. Put things on hold until tomorrow. Don’t volunteer for anything.

This is a creative day for you, especially in terms of doing academic research and exploring ideas or philosophical concepts. For example, your mind will be open to ideas you might usually resist. However, don’t agree to anything important.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Today the Moon Alert, which exists for most of the day, is in one of your Money Houses. Definitely, do not sign important papers. Do not agree to decisions about inheritances, insurance settlements or shared property. Wait until tomorrow.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Today the Moon Alert is directly opposite your own sign, which means you will have a candid, even unpredictable, conversation with a partner or close friend. This could be a good thing because people will put their cards on the table. Nevertheless, wait until tomorrow to agree to anything important.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Shortages, delays and silly mistakes might occur with your work today. You might also feel confused about health issues or something to do with a pet. That’s because the Moon Alert might create hesitancy and confusion. Keep things light. Tomorrow, it’s all systems go.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is a fabulous, creative day for you! It’s also a wonderful day to schmooze with others and in particular, to enjoy playful activities with children. Your mind is full of original concepts. Write them down and run them up the flagpole tomorrow to see who salutes.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is the perfect day to cocoon at home and relax. Attend to usual tasks. Do not shop for anything for your home except for food and sundries. A family conversation will be honest and enjoyable. Postpone important decisions until tomorrow.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Sharon Stone (1958) shares your birthday today. You are attractive and charming when dealing with others. Nevertheless, you are ambitious and determined to achieve your goals. You’re very aware of the impression you create on others. This is an exciting year for you because it’s a year of fresh new beginnings. Be courageous. Open any door! Explore new opportunities!

Familiar visualization spell

Visualizations are a great way of manifesting the reality you desire. Visualizations, like all magic, are based on the law of attraction principle. You can manifest almost anything you desire: a new job, new girlfriend/boyfriend, new magical pet? It’s up to you.

The key to making this work is pouring as much energy into your visualization as possible. This is where ceremonial magic and ritual items can be very helpful. For summoning a familiar I recommend this visualization spell:

  • Light a candle in a dark and quiet room
  • Use a magical wand or a dagger to draw an inverted pentagram in the air above the candle
  • Next, use the same ritual item to draw the shape of the animal spirit you wish to summon
  • Now, close your eyes and point the ritual item at the candle flame. Visualize the familiar manifesting in reality the candle flame as you pour your energy through the wand/dagger into the flame.
