Moon Alert
Avoid shopping or important decisions from 3 PM to 7:30 PM EDT today (12 noon to 4:30 PM PDT). After that, the Moon moves from Taurus into Gemini.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
You are in a creative frame of mind today, which is why you will see new uses for something that you own. You might reconfigure or redesign something. Because your imagination is in overdrive, be careful about financial decisions. Check Moon Alert above.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
For most of this day, the Moon is in your sign having a dreamy relationship with Neptune, which makes you feel laid-back and interested in fanciful ideas. Einstein said, “Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination circles the world.”
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Relax as much as possible today. Work alone or behind the scenes because you will enjoy daydreaming and conjuring up future possibilities in your mind. You might share these ideas with others because with Mercury in your sign, you are eager to enlighten.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Today you will find it easy to idealize a friend or admire them. Some might feel this kind of admiration or inspiration about a group, especially a charitable organization. If you decide to join a group today, think clearly, and perhaps wait a few days to see if this is what you really want to do.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Others might misunderstand you today or feel confused by the impression that you create. Quite likely, they will admire you but also, it’s as if they are seeing you through Vaseline on their lens. This can make you appear glamorous. It can also make you appear flaky? (Just so you know.)
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
You’re attracted to fanciful plans about future travel, further education or doing something adventurous and exciting! You want to expand your world! It’s wonderful to use your imagination. However, make sure that in a day or two, these plans still hold water and have the same appeal.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
You might feel empathetic and sympathetic to someone who is less fortunate than you, which is why you are inclined to help them as much as possible, and be generous. This is admirable. However, your aroused idealism could be misleading. Don’t give away the farm.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
A conversation with a partner or close friend will be laid back and relaxed today. You might entertain imaginative ideas? These are always fun to explore. However, because you are in a fanciful mood today, wait until tomorrow or Monday to agree to make a commitment.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Because your idealism is aroused today, you will want to help coworkers or work on behalf of someone. You might also give your time to help pets or animal rescue organizations. Be careful about committing too much. See how these ideas look on Monday.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
This is a wonderful day to be creative and explore the arts. Artists, in particular, will be productive and able to work with a heightened imagination. Social occasions will be fun-loving and whimsical. Enjoy playful activities with children. Romance will shimmer!
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
You feel sympathetic to the needs of a family member today. If you can help someone, you certainly will. However, if someone makes a serious demand on you, which requires a commitment on your part, wait until Monday to respond. This will be wise.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Today you might spend a lot of time being lost in fantasy and daydreams. That’s okay, we all need a mental health day like this now and then. You might come up with marvellous ideas? If so, write them down. However, be leery about firm decisions.
If Your Birthday Is Today
Comedian, actor Ricky Gervais (1961) shares your birthday today. You are an observant, very perceptive person. You understand people. You are creative and love to travel. Many of you have different lifestyles. This year is the first year of a new nine-year cycle for you, which means anything can happen. Be courageous. Explore new avenues and new directions.
June 25, 2022 Current Moon Phase Digest
You can use this link to go forward or backward in time for Moon phase information. If you are curious, you can even find out what phase the Moon was in when you or anyone else was born.
From MoonGiant.com
The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waning Crescent phase. In this phase the Moon’s illumination is growing smaller each day until the New Moon. During this part of the Moon cycle, the Moon is getting closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing the Earth with only a small edge of the Moon being illuminated. This phase is best viewed an hour or 2 before the sunrise and can be quite beautiful if you’re willing to get up early. It can also be a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the edge where the illuminated portion meets the dark side, the craters and mountains cast long shadows making them easier to observe with a telescope or binoculars.
Visit the June 2022 Moon Phases Calendar to see all the daily moon phase for this month.
Today’s Waning Crescent Phase
The Waning Crescent on June 25 has an illumination of 11%. This is the percentage of the Moon illuminated by the Sun. The illumination is constantly changing and can vary up to 10% a day.

Saturn lends its energies to the last day of the week. Because Saturn is the planet of karma, this day is an excellent time for spellwork involving reincarnation, karmic lessons, the Mysteries, wisdom, and long-term projects.
It is also a good time to being efforts that deal with the elderly, death, or the eradication of pests and disease.
Spell for Today – Energy Binding
This spell is meant to bind the energies around a person to stop them from effectively using magic.
WARNING: Use this with caution, there are currently no counter-spells to stop this. Secondly, there is a possibility your target can breach the barrier if she/he is physically touching a powerful energy source which has greater energy than the barrier itself.
You will need:
Full/New Moon/Sunlight
An energy source or an object of which energy can be drawn
Bowl of water – optional
First, take out a glass bowl, and fill it with water. This is used to gather energy for the spell, but if you don’t want to use the water, choose another energy source. Then, have the water reflect the sun or moon, and say:
Solar flare, Lunar mist
I call on thee this day
Bring forth your light,
strength and power,
so cast this spell I may.
(Imagine the sun/moon energy flowing into the water)
Like I stated above, this is completely optional. Now, to form the barrier. Draw upon your energy source, and send it towards your target. Once you have reached them, attempt to have your energy surround them in a bubble. Then, say:
Light, Earth, Spirits strong
Leave ‘s presence forever long
Let their powers cripple, and fail with dismay
I hereby banish your magic on this very day!
So mote/might/may it be.
Imagine the bubble drawing the energy from your target and all around him, draining him of magical resources. Continue feeding the bubble/shield/wall with energy until you feel you can release them.
Pagan and Magickal Terms and Definitions
Today’s Word is
Faeries
From moonlitpriestess.com
Some refer to them as The Wee Folk; the word “fairy” is a synonym for “brownie.” Many Earth elementals are called faeries or the fey. A deeper study is required for better understanding.

My lady, my beautiful lady,
Beautiful altar of Diana,
Goddess of the moon,
Merry one, sacred woman,
I pray you grant me a favor I ask,
The favor I ask now.
If you grant me this favor,
Always the Vangelo of Aradia

Sempre it vangelo della Aradia

Explanation: Simultaneous images from four cameras were combined to construct this atmospheric predawn skyscape. The cooperative astro-panorama captures all the planets of the Solar System, just before sunrise on June 24. That foggy morning found innermost planet Mercury close to the horizon but just visible against the twilight, below and left of brilliant Venus. Along with the waning crescent Moon, the other bright naked-eye planets, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn lie near the ecliptic, arcing up and to the right across the wide field of view. Binoculars would have been required to spot the much fainter planets Uranus and Neptune, though they also were along the ecliptic in the sky. In the foreground are excavations at an ancient Roman villa near Marina di San Nicola, Italy, planet Earth.

Moon Alert
There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The Moon is in Taurus.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Be sensible and respect your money and your wealth because today, you’re tempted to impulse shop. “I have to have this!” Likewise, guard what you own against loss, theft or damage. This an unpredictable day for your wealth and your assets, which is why you might find money or lose money.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Today seems to be full of electric energy, and you can feel it! This is why you might impulsively do something or suddenly go off in a new direction without a word to anyone. Guard against doing something rash because your moods will change quickly today. You want some action! (No bores allowed.)
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
This is a restless day for you. That’s because both the Moon and Uranus are lined up together, but they’re in a hidden part of your chart. This could make I difficult for you to fully concentrate on something. You might also be unconsciously impatient with others. Relax and stay chill.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Very likely, a friend or a member of a group will say or do something that surprises you today. This could be intriguing – or irritating. Alternatively, you might meet someone today who is a real character. Something or someone might even cause you to rethink or change your goals for the future.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
You will bristle if someone tries to stop you from doing something today, even if your plans are last-minute. You don’t want to be dictated to by others. You have a strong drive for freedom, and you definitely want to be able to do your own thing. Hello?
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
A chance to travel might drop in your lap today. (Who knew?) On the other hand (you have different rings) – travel plans might be cancelled, changed or delayed. Likewise, something in the media might surprise you or perhaps the surprise relates to legal or medical matters.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Double check details related to inheritances, insurance matters, shared property, taxes and debt because something unexpected could impact something related to these areas for you. Check your banking details. It’s important to stay on top of things because you snooze, you lose.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
A partner or close friend might throw you a curveball today. Or they might say something that shocks you. Or perhaps you feel impatient with them? Tread carefully because why do something or say something that you will regret later. Think twice before you act.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
This might be an accident-prone day for you because work-related accidents are likely. They might simply be equipment breakdowns. Meanwhile, staff shortages, power outages, late deliveries and unexpected surprises will impact your day. Check your pet.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Parents should know this is an accident-prone day for their kids. Meanwhile, anyone might discover that they have a sudden change in social plans or a sudden change in schedules related to sports. Be smart and guard against sports accidents.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Your home routine will be interrupted today. Small appliances might break down or a minor breakage could occur. Someone might knock at your door. It could be anything. Get dressed. Be ready for the unexpected because that’s half the battle.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
This is an accident-prone day for your sign – no question. We might be talking about a physical accident; however, it also could be a gaffe – you might suddenly say something you regret later. (“I can’t believe I just said that.”) Take extra precautions driving, walking and jogging. On the upside, a brilliant idea might amaze everyone.
If Your Birthday Is Today
Footballer Lionel Messi (1987) shares your birthday today. You are a natural leader who is independent. You influence others. You’re an excellent problem solver; and you value home and family. This year is the last year of a nine-year cycle, which means it’s time to wrap up things. Let go of people, places and things that are no longer relevant.
June 24, 2022 Current Moon Phase Digest
You can use this link to go forward or backward in time for Moon phase information. If you are curious, you can even find out what phase the Moon was in when you or anyone else was born.
From MoonGiant.com
The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waning Crescent phase. In this phase the Moon’s illumination is growing smaller each day until the New Moon. During this part of the Moon cycle, the Moon is getting closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing the Earth with only a small edge of the Moon being illuminated. This phase is best viewed an hour or 2 before the sunrise and can be quite beautiful if you’re willing to get up early. It can also be a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the edge where the illuminated portion meets the dark side, the craters and mountains cast long shadows making them easier to observe with a telescope or binoculars.

What Exactly Is The Purpose of Your Spell?
A spell is designed to initiate change on some level by shifting the balance of energy within a situation. The shift does simply occur in response to your wish for a change: there are certain stages through which you must pass. Let’s take a look at them.
The Basic Steps:
While every spell is different, most steps can be classified somewhere in the following:
- Establish your need or desire. There’s no point in doing a spell for the sake of doing a spell. That’s simply a waste of time and energy.
- Compose your spell. Take the time to think about your desired outcome, and what energies you wish to harness to help you achieve this outcome.
- Shift consciousness. In order to maximize your spellwork, you should ideally be in a spellcasting frame of mind. Author Lilith McLelland calls this being in “magick mode.” Our everyday, scattered, and busy brains aren’t very efficient at gathering energies, including them into a sleek, powerful spell, and releasing them toward a goal. Shifting consciousness allows you to attain a different state of mind, filtering out the surface noise and distractions in order to concentrate and focus on what you’re doing.
- Raise energy and release it toward your goal. This is the moment where spellcrafting becomes spellcasting. Spells are powered by the energies held by the components or ingredient you choose to use and by your own personal energy as well.
- Manifestation. Ideally, the final step is the achievement of your goal.
