Goddess – Rhiannon, Horse Goddess of Wales

Rhiannon – Horse Goddess of Wales

In Welsh mythology, Rhiannon is a horse goddess depicted in the Mabinogion. She is similar in many aspects to the Gaulish Epona, and later evolved into a goddess of sovereignty who protected the king from treachery.

Rhiannon was married to Pwyll, the Lord of Dyfed. When Pwyll first saw her, she appeared as a golden goddess upon a magnificent white horse. Rhiannon managed to outrun Pwyll for three days, and then allowed him to catch up, at which point she told him she’d be happy to marry him, because it would keep her from marrying Gwawl, who had tricked her into an engagement. Rhiannon and Pwyll conspired together to fool Gwawl in return, and thus Pwyll won her as his bride. Most of the conspiring was likely Rhiannon’s, as Pwyll didn’t appear to be the cleverest of men. In the Mabinogion, Rhiannon says of her husband, “Never was there a man who made feebler use of his wits.” After Pwyll’s death, Rhiannon married Manawyden.

The goddess’ name, Rhiannon, derives from a Proto-Celtic root which means “great queen,” and by taking a man as her spouse, she grants him sovereignty as king of the land.

In addition, Rhiannon possesses a set of magical birds, who can soothe the living into a deep slumber, or wake the dead from their eternal sleep.

Her story features prominently in the Fleetwood Mac hit Rhiannon, although songwriter Stevie Nicks says she didn’t know it at the time. Later, Nicks said she “was struck by the story’s emotional resonance with that of her song: the goddess, or possibly witch, given her ability with spells, was impossible to catch by horse and was also closely identified with birds — especially significant since the song claims she “takes to the sky like a bird in flight,” “rules her life like a fine skylark,” and is ultimately “taken by the wind.”

Primarily, though, Rhiannon is associated with the horse, which appears prominently in much of Welsh and Irish mythology. Many parts of the Celtic world — Gaul in particular — used horses in warfare, and so it is no surprise that these animals turn up in the myths and legends or Ireland and Wales. Scholars have learned that horse racing was a popular sport, especially at fairs and gatherings, and for centuries Ireland has been known as the center of horse breeding and training.

Judith Shaw, at Feminism and Religion, says, “Rhiannon, reminding us of our own divinity, helps us to identify with our sovereign wholeness. She enables us to cast out the role of victim from our lives forever. Her presence calls us to practice patience and forgiveness. She lights our way to the ability to transcend injustice and maintain compassion for our accusers.”

Symbols and items that are sacred to Rhiannon in modern Pagan practice include horses and horseshoes, the moon, birds, and the wind itself.

An Iowa Pagan named Callista says, “I raise horses, and have worked with them since I was a child. I first encountered Rhiannon when I was a teenager, and I keep an altar to her near my stables. It’s got horsey things on it, like a horseshoe, a horse figurine, and even braids from the manes of horses I’ve lost over the years. I make an offering to her before horse shows, and I invoke her when one of my mares is about to give birth. She seems to like offerings of sweetgrass and hay, milk, and even music – I sometimes sit by my altar and play my guitar, just singing a prayer to her, and the results are always good. I know she’s watching over me and my horses.”

However, the problem is that sometimes they prefer to suffer from unrequited love rather than make a move and win the heart of the person they want.

JANUARY 25 birthday horoscope predicts that you personify the word originality. With every chance you get, you take on new experiences whether it is traveling or a new job opportunity. It makes your day when you can provide valuable input to people. So what zodiac sign is January 25? Yes, of course, you have an Aquarius birthday! And you are very innovative.

As your January 25 birthday horoscope signifies, you intend to make the world a better place although, that idea is just a little extreme for even you, Aquarius. While it is true that you are very charismatic and others gravitate to you, some goals are unattainable. Some people do not agree with your tactics or support your views.

Being an Aquarius born on January 25 birthday, you have a profound vision of how things should work but with your originality brings diversity to the picture. Some people are just afraid of change. The Aquarius zodiac sign’s ability to see all sides fosters your consequent tolerant nature.

When you make an argument, people listen even though they may not always agree with you. You are down to earth and as a whole, an open-minded individual. You are not inclined to follow anybody’s lead. You are a leader. People should take note of you!

January 25 birthday horoscope also shows that, in spite of your desire to populate the community with informed individuals, your great extroverted personality can cause a bit of trouble. You should practice expressing yourself in a way that it does not offend anyone.

Try to find the best in people by accepting them as they are rather than blowing them off as being unimportant. This does not make it easy for you to make lasting friendships although; you work better with a group of people. Being a part of a team gives you a strong sense of unity. This helps you perform better.

You know, many professions are part of a team. January 25 birthday personality have a good job of a doctor, philosopher or even a professor who is Director of the History Department, to consider as choices. You love exploring and nature.

Consult with your professionals in this field if at all interested. Somehow, I think you could be… you are here on this page. You see, when we have these gifts, and they are not used, there are consequences for it. It is not that anything bad is going to happen to you but rather, you miss opportunities when you should not.

Snapshots are worth their weight in gold if presented to the right connections. A picture could be worth a million dollars instead of words. Do you understand what I am saying to you? Aquarius, your hobby could be the best profession of your lifetime.

If today is your birthday, you do have some mystical qualities about you as well. If you could develop and master those unique traits, you would be amazed at the results. If those born on January 25 possessed healing properties, Aquarians would rise above and aid his fellow man.

Like how you always seem to let the big one get away when it comes to romance and close personal relationships. You have your guard way to high. Even your guards have guards. Ask yourself this, “How will I ever get what I want if I can’t let myself be open to love?”.

As your astrological sign compatibility by birthday suggest, if you let your guard down, you probably could find out who you were to be. January 25 Aquarians are just complicated people when it comes to sharing emotions and feelings.

Aquarius, you have a special connection to Air. You are a pair. This connection makes you even more special because you are a magnet for money! It is as if a burst of wind blows it into your bank account. Nevertheless, just as the wind came, it went away.

They say quick money never last. Somehow, you manage to shuffle things around to make it work. You need to save your money for when it rains. It takes both to make the flowers grow. You like your independence, do you not?

The January 25 zodiac foretells that, as being part of Uranus’ rule, Aquarians get even more power. You get more sex appeal, more understanding, and more love. The future of person who born on 25 January depends on how independent you are.

(One Person’s View) Who Is Bastet? Complete Guide to the Egyptian Cat Goddess

Bastet/Bast

Lion and cat and woman, goddess of war and fertility—the Egyptian goddess Bast (also known as Bastet) contains multitudes. While she’s not the only cat goddess from ancient history, Bastet is probably the most famous cat goddess today. She has a strong presence in pop culture and a select few even still worship her!

In this complete guide to Bastet, we’ll go over exactly what makes this Egyptian cat goddess so compelling. We’ll describe her attributes, how she was depicted in ancient Egypt, her major relationships, how she was worshipped, her major myths, and the history of her worship. We’ll close out with where you might encounter Bast, goddess of cats, today.

Who Is Bastet? What Are Her Attributes?

The goddess we most frequently call “Bastet” today was known as both “Bast” and “Bastet” in ancient Egypt.

“Bast” was her earlier name. It possibly meant either “Soul of Auset” (Auset being an alternative name for “Isis,” who is sometimes considered her mother), or “devouring lady.”

Later, priests called her “Bastet” to indicate that the “t” in her name should be pronounced. “Bastet” shares one of the same hieroglyphs for the bas jar, which held perfumes and ointments. So “Bastet” also meant “she of the ointment jar.”

Bast was originally a lioness goddess, but as time went on, she was more closely associated with the housecat. The cat was her totem animal.

As one of the main goddesses of the Egyptian pantheon, Bastet had a huge number of attributes and aspects:

  • She was a goddess of cats, the sun, of the East, of fire, of love, intoxication, music and dancing, joy, celebration, fertility, secrets, magic, and sex.
  • However, she was also a goddess of war known for her wrathful vengeance.
  • She protected households and individuals from disease and evil spirits, guarded pregnant women, and protected cats.
  • She served as the divine nurse and mother of the Pharaoh.
  • Due to Bastet meaning “she of the ointment jar” she also became known also as a goddess of perfume, and was called the “perfumed protector.”
  • Bast/Bastet was the protector and guardian of Lower Egypt.
  • She was the patron goddess of fire fighters, because the Egyptians believed that a cat running through a building on fire would draw the flames out.
  • She was also one of the goddesses who was known as the “eye of Ra” or the “eye of Atum,” the sun. In this aspect she symbolized Ra’s feminine counterpart and was sent out to take vengeance on his enemies. The “eye of Ra” was both a part of Ra and a separate being from him, and was considered his mother, sister, wife, and daughter simultaneously. She had life-giving, protective and also destructive capacities.

Depictions of Bastet: Her Symbols and Totems

Bast was first depicted primarily as a lioness, then later as a cat or cat-headed woman. In her aspect as a cat-headed woman she frequently holds a sistrum decorated with cats and Click here to read the rest of this article

Strengthen Boundaries

Boundaries help keep us safe, whether physically, mentally, or emotionally. Sometimes we let our boundaries slip and need to quickly build them back up. This spell is designed to help strengthen or rebuild the emotional boundaries you already have in place.

Dress a black candle with black pepper oil.

Sprinkle some black pepper oil onto a sage smudge, and light it with the black candle.

Smudge yourself in front of the black candle with the sage.

Imagine the sage and black pepper building a wall around you, the sage on the inside, protecting you and keeping you safe, and the black pepper on the outside, repelling anything or anybody you don’t want to get in.

Make sure to thoroughly smudge yourself, or have a trusted friend assist you.

Flashback 2002 Lammas

Lammas is the first of the harvest festivals and this year despite the fiery Sun, it has a strong, sensual feel of cardinal earth. Mars lends a masculine energy to the Sun this week to help with the organizing for this bread festival. Round cornbread as a solar disk is an apt and easy choice for the altar, but if you plan several days ahead, you can sprout a small amount (1/4 cup) of wheat or barely for kitchen witchery. Add this to your other grains to your own bread from scratch; or buy frozen bread dough, thaw, pat into a rectangle, and sprinkle the sprouted grains. Roll up your dough like a jelly roll and place in a greased bread pan into which you have sprinkled Irish oats. You can use a sharp knife to crave goddess symbols into the loaf before baking.

Bast Prayer Against Evil Witchcraft

Light a black candle during this devotional.

Incense for Bast:

Cinnamon, Frankincense, Myrrh, Almond.

Offerings to Bast:

Chrysanthemums, Chocolate, Cotton, Feathers, Figs, Honey, Milk, Sunflowers.

Bast is the Egyptian Goddess, also known as Bastet, whose mission is to protect the home.

She symbolizes the joy of living as it is considered the deity of harmony and happiness. She was typically represented in the form of a domestic cat, or as a woman with the head of a cat, always carrying a sistrum (musical instrument) because she was especially pleased by humans dancing and playing music in her honor.

The cult of Bast was so important that cats were raised in her temples to be her representation, and at the death of these, they were carefully mummified and buried in specific tombs for them.

In her warrior aspect, she was a lioness with green skin and in this aspect she was associated with sunlight. She was a solar goddess until the identification of the Greeks with her lunar goddess Artemis.

Devotional text

Mother of the gods, the One, the Only,

Mistress of the Crowns, you rule all.

Sekhmet is your name when you are wrathful,

Bast, beloved, when your people call.

Daughter of the Sun, with flame and fury

Flashing from the prow upon the foe.

Safely sails the Boat with your protection

Passing scatheless where your fires glow.

Daughter of the Sun, the burial chamber

Lies in the darkness till your light appears.

From your Throne of Silence send us comfort,

Bast, beloved, banish all our fears.

Mother of the Gods, no Gods existed

Till you came there and gave them life.

Sekhmet of the Boat, the wicked fear you

Trampling down all evil and all strife.

Mother of the Gods, the great, the loved one,

Winged and mighty, unto you we call,

Naming you the Comforter, the Ruler,

Bast, beloved, Mother of us all.

Bast, descend upon me. Fill me with you.

Expel all evil forces from me.

Destroy and banish all witchcraft, bonds and curses.

Drive out all obsession, envy, jealousy. Physical, mental, moral, spiritual illness.

Use your strength to command all evil spirits,

all presences that bother me, to abandon me immediately.

Let them withdraw me forever and burn in eternal hell.

I remain protected, armored, anointed, sealed and cleaned.

Inside and out, in your name, Bast.

With your presence and your powerful armor,

I consecrate and surrender my night, with my sleep and my rest.

My day and all my activities.

Take away everything that could harm me.

Any envies, accusations, revenge, anger, betrayals,

hatred, phobias, fears, doubts, confusion, lies, deceptions,

bitterness, and depressions.

Help me so that nobody can cause me damage,

and forgive me for any harm that I have caused so far.

May your power defend me and set me free.

Bast, beloved, banish all my fears.

You are the divine Flame,

you are the great Flame at the prow of the Boat of your father.

Praise to you who are mightier than the Gods.

Some of the Witchcraft/Magickal Correspondence for Saturday

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY COROSPONDENCES POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER)

Saturday

Saturday is a day filled with opportunities to clean up and clear out. So if you are wondering why Hecate is assigned to this day, take another look at what she symbolizes and the magick that is associated with her. That should answer the question.

Hecate was the oldest form of the Greek Triple Goddess, as she presided over heaven, the underworld, and earth. Crossroads where three roads met were especially sacred to Hecate, earning her the title of Hekate of the Three Ways. It’s interesting to note that even after the worship of other goddesses waned, ancient people still worshiped Hecate as the Queen of the Underworld and the Guardian of the Three-Way Crossroad. It was also believed that if you left her an offering of food there, she would grant you her favors. As Hecate Trivia, her triple images were often displayed at these crossroads, where she was petitioned on the full moon for positive magick and on the dark of the moon for cursing and dark magick.

While this last bit of information sounds a little ominous, keep in mind that Hecate/Hekate was known by many titles and is a shapeshifter. Her appearance could and did change often. As a dark moon goddess, her faces are many. To some she may appear as a old crone, hunched over a smoking cauldron and draped in a midnight cape. To others she may appear as a dark beautiful, mysterious, and mature woman wearing a shimmering crown. To some she may be perceived as a maiden priestess. She was called the “most lovely one,” the Great Goddess of Nature, and the Queen of the World of Spirits. This dark goddess knows her way around the earth and the underworld. All the powers of nature, life, and death are at her command.

Flashback 2002 Imbolc

Imbolc is an important day of purification and initiation; on the Sun’s day, February 2, the energies are very airy. This Sabbat is a good day for coven work, with an emotionally detached masculine Moon and Sun on the Sun’s day.

Dress yourself and your altar in white, while serving white beverages or any dairy food to honor the calving season. Spread the top of a one-pound round Camembert or Bire cheese with raspberry preserves. Cut a circle of puff pastry large enough to cover the cheese, wrap it, tucking the ends of the pastry under. Use scraps to decorate the top with goddess symbols. Brush with beaten egg yolk. Bake at 425 degrees until golden, and serve hot and melting on crackers. During this ritual, bless and dedicate all candles you will need for other ritual work throughout the year. A good way to start the ceremony is to light candles in the darkened room with chanting to encourage the lengthening days.

Moon Phase

The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waning Crescent phase. This phase is best viewed just before the sunrise in the western sky. 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. 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 January 2025 Moon Phases Calendar to see all the daily moon phase for this month.

Today’s Waning Crescent Phase

The Waning Crescent on January 25 has an illumination of 16%. This is the percentage of the Moon illuminated by the Sun. The illumination is constantly changing and can vary up to 10% a day. On January 25 the Moon is 25.66 days old. This refers to how many days it has been since the last New Moon. It takes 29.53 days for the Moon to orbit the Earth and go through the lunar cycle of all 8 Moon phases.

Today’s Moon Sign: ♐ Sagittarius

The current zodiac moon sign is Sagittarius, positioned at 14.82° within the sign. The Moon entered Sagittarius on Jan 24, 5:05 AM and will shift into Capricorn on Jan 26, 8:21 AM. The zodiac moon sign represents the position of the Moon as it moves through the twelve signs of the zodiac. Each zodiac moon sign lasts about 2 to 2.5 days as the Moon travels through that part of the sky.

26 January, 2025 Current Moon Phase for the Southern Hemisphere

Source: nineplanets.org

The current moon phase for January 26th, 2025 is the Waning Crescent phase.

On this day, the moon is 26.15 days old and 12.69% illuminated with a tilt of -56.092°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 390,077.96 km and the moon sign is Sagittarius.

The Moon phase for January 26th, 2025 is a Waning Crescent phase. This is the phase where the moon is less than 50% illuminated but has not yet reached 0% illumination (which would be a New Moon).

In this part of the moon cycle, it is getting closer and closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing earth with a decreasingly thin crescent being illuminated.

The waning (shrinking) crescement Moon will rise at around midnight, transit the meridian after sunrise, before setting after noon. This phase is best viewed 1-2 hours before sunrise and is a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the illuminated crescent you can see the craters and mountains of the moon casting long shadows.

The Waxing Gibbous phase, like all moon phases, will last for just over 7 days. The actual length will vary because of the elliptical shaped orbit of the moon. During this Waxing Gibbous phase the moon will rise in the east in the mid- to late-afternoon and will be high in the eastern sky at sunset.

Assuming it’s a clear night, the Waxing Gibbous moon will then be visible through most of the night before setting just before sunrise.

Fun fact: the illuminated side of a waning crescent moon is always pointed eastwards, towards the sunrise.

Joyful 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.

Being an Aquarius born on January 24th, you prefer to spend a lot of time in reverie and often require someone just as creative as you to show you that things can be accomplished in real life as well.

It is very important for you that your love partner shares the same life expectations and you try to play with the cards on the table straight away to make sure things are like this from the start. Prepare to read a comprehensive report below.

 The zodiac sign for January 24 is Aquarius.

 Astrological symbol: Water Bearer. This relates to the ever changing but compassionate nature of these individuals. This is the symbol for people born between January 20 and February 18 when the Sun is considered to be in Aquarius.

 The Aquarius Constellation is one of the twelve constellations of the zodiac. It is spread on an area of 980 square degrees. It covers visible latitudes between +65° and -90°. It lies between Capricornus to the West and Pisces to the East and the brightest star is called alpha Aquarii.

 The Spanish call it Acuario while the French use the name Verseau for the January 24 zodiac sign but the real origin of the Water Bearer is in the Latin Aquarius.

 Opposite sign: Leo. This suggests that this sign and Aquarius are complementary and placed across each other on the astrological wheel, meaning loyalty and relaxation and some sort of balancing act between the two.

 Modality: Fixed. This reveals how much vanity and power exists in the lives of those born on January 24 and how down-to-earth they are in general.

 Ruling house: The eleventh house. This house represents the space of dreams, friendship and higher expectations. Aquarius is by nature a friendly and open person. They are also idealist thinkers and achievers through social support.

 Ruling body: Uranus. This celestial planet reveals yearning and warm heart and also highlights honesty. Uranus is equivalent to Caelus, the Roman owner of the skies.

 Element: Air. This is the element of those who prioritize and organize their lives while linking everything together. Is said to influence those born under January 24 zodiac and governs their relationship with the other elements, for instance in association with fire, it heats the situation up.

 Lucky day: Tuesday. This day is under the governing of Mars and symbolizes center and immateriality. It also identifies with the original nature of Aquarius natives.

 Lucky numbers: 5, 7, 14, 19, 21.

 Motto: “I know”

People born on January 24 are altruistic and ingenious and involve themselves in humanitarian enterprises of some kind, whether it is something bigger or just doing something for their community or mates. They are captivating and exert some sort of attraction for those who meet them the first time and they are very aware of that and try to play their cards right from the beginning. They avoid pragmatic enterprises and getting stuck in a ordinary and if possible they would live in a dream like world.

 Positive traits: These natives are loyal and loving and have pleasing personalities especially when they get attached to someone or feel that their efforts are being recognized. They try to live their lives recognizing the beauty around and bringing their own contribution, even if this only means helping those close. They are also quite dependable and they usually do their best to keep their promises.

 Negative traits: Unpredictable, irritable and full of sarcasm these natives can be quite malicious with other people, especially with those who they don’t believe to be worthy of their attention. They often make decisions on a whim and then require the support of others to see them through. They are not very trustworthy and are not afraid to hurt one’s feelings when they feel as if there is a higher goal to that and their priorities are bigger than a simple promise.

Lovers born on January 24 are extremely attractive and charming. They always have their words, but imagine when this eloquence is combined with passion. They are attracted to people who can accept their eccentricities and keep up with them. You can conquer the heart of Aquarius if you master the art of revealing who you are step by step so they never get bored. When they are single they act just about the same as when they are in a relationship, they seem to have no restrictions and just live their life at its fullest.

 Remarkably charming and affectionate they sometimes fall in love just for the feeling of it and not for the person near them. Once they find the right person, they will dedicate all their life and everything they have to this relationship and will ask for the same. They are a very kind soul and this won’t remain unnoticed by the important persons in their life. They will lead a great inner home happiness governed by domestic responsibility and good judgment. They are most compatible with those born on the 1st, 6th, 9th, 10th, 15th, 18th, 19th, 24th and 27th.

 January 24 Zodiac people seem to be most attracted to the other air signs: Gemini and Libra as they tend to share the same vision of life. In love, Aquarius is in a permanent search for someone capable of understanding their adventurous and curious nature and the most suitable to offer them this is another native born under Aquarius. The lover in Aquarius is said to be least compatible with Scorpio. As for the rest of partnerships between the other star signs and Aquarius, you know what they say, stars predispose but people dispose.

Blue-green as a hue, is the symbol of dependability and lack of movement. This zodiac color is advised to be used in accessories and items of clothing.

Others find you funny and interesting and charismatic, but the more they tell you so, the less you believe it. Try to use your natural gift for psychology on yourself. Once you realize you are special for your original thoughts and integrity, you’ll realize your admirers were right all along.

January 24 Aquarius at Their Best: Larger-than-life, brilliant, alluring

January 24 Aquarius at Their Worst: Aloof, insecure, self-absorbed

What to Wear: Anything — from tie-dye and glitter to stripes, plaids and check, erratically combined.

What to Eat: Original dishes that reflect global consciousness. If it’s earth-friendly, local, or sustainable, Aquarius will celebrate it!

Who to Invite: If humanitarians like Angelina Jolie and Bono aren’t available, round up the usual suspects at the nearest protest rally.

Where to Go: In a public park — if weather makes that a no-go, move it into a unique space like an arcade, skating rink or museum.

The zodiac sign for a January 24 birthday is Aquarius. But these Aquarians are far from your “norm.” The way you dress, and the way you talk shows you are setting trends. You thrive on what‘s new and different. The future of  January 24 personality depends on how innovative you are.

These Aquarians will have the latest technology before anyone else does. Your interests become your hobby and what you bring to it, usually reflects your personality. Creativity is one of your best assets.

The Aquarius birthday horoscope predicts that new environments give you the opportunity to explore and show off your many talents. People respond well to your winning attitude. As they give in to you, it would explain your varied friendships. You know people from all walks of life, and it makes you even more fascinating.

What is so attractive about Aquarians born on January 24 is how genuine they are. With this trait, you tend to suffer a vulnerability that friends love to see. Your love for them, however, can be complicated.

As an Aquarius, your competitive nature flows over into your friendships. Who would have thought that someone who is intelligent and successful could be insecure? You let your friends pick you instead of you picking them. When it comes to romantic relationships, you are easily fooled.

Some people that come into your life are superficial or more to the point, phony and this is even predicted in the January 24 birthday compatibility. They are usually opportunists looking for ways to come up in the world.

Perhaps you need to try a more traditional approach when it comes to choosing a soul mate. Happy you will be when you meet your mate, and you can settle down. You need a companion for the future.

Because you enjoyed success early on, you may become complacent in your journey. January 24 horoscope predicts you are not the energetic Aquarians that we have come to know. This can be your downfall due to your potential to exceed.

You stand to miss some awesome opportunities due to your lack of motivation. However, as smart as you are, you tend to lose control when it comes to spending. Your habits or hobbies are typically extreme.

People born on January 24 are people who need to be nurtured. Sometimes you need that extra push to get projects going in the right direction. You are capable of amazing things but can lack the confidence with which to do it.

Additionally, you can be quite immovable in your will a predicted by your birthday astrology analysis. You are paired with the Air. You can be either very mobile or stagnant. Your stagnant nature can prevent you from showing any emotions as a part of your personality.

You are gifted with many talents including your problem-solving ability. January 24 Aquarius, you have many career options. Your need for exploration could land you a job with research duties or one that includes travel. On the other hand, you may be suited to teach. It is indeed a notable career.

Aquarians, as your birthday horoscope profile indicates, among your basic personalities, you can be shy and very sensitive. This is a contributing factor to your gentle and patient nature. Depending on which way the wind is blowing, you can be frivolous or high-spirited. Either way, you are strong.

If today is your birthday, you appreciate the truth however it may be presented to you. With your ability to see both sides of a situation, you can bring the whole truth to the light. Your vision is logical, uncomplicated and clear. It has been said that you encompass psychic ability. Perhaps you should engage in more spiritual activities.

The Aquarian philosophical side causes events to inspire them. When this happens, you can exert the time and devotion needed to complete such tasks. You could quickly drive yourself to the point of mental fatigue.

You look forward to your retirement years as you prepare a financial pillow made for good times, rest. You are defined by your means. Aquarius with January 24 birthday are independent but resent interference. However, helpful friends, or family tries to be. However different from most, you have good taste. People follow your example.

Spell for Friday – Candle Magick for Rocky Times

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY)

LOVE SPELL WARNING: Love spells such as this one take the person who you want to love you free will/spirit away. What happens with a spell like this is the person will become obsessed with you to the point of possibly losing their job, which in turn can make them lose their home, automobile, friends, their family, etc. I have heard of people under love spells dying from not eating or drinking when they are not in the presence of the spellcaster 24/7/365. So, unless you want some who only loves you because of a spell you put on them then go for it. But if you want someone to love you because they feel that emotion towards you then please do not do this spell. The same warning goes for animals, birds, reptiles, or anything else that has a heart and can create a bond with someone.

Candle Magick for Rocky Times

You will need:

Pink Candle

The Spell:

A love candle with oils and herbs hidden in a secret place instills confidence in our power to be good lovers. It is a secret source of inspiration when times are hard and you need to work through problems that arise in your relationship.

Hold a pink candle and charge it for future spells, by visualizing you and your lover in a happy loving embrace. Put the energy from this vision into the candle. The say out loud:

“We will always love each other.
May the Goddess and God grant this.
for the good of all.”
 

When problems arise in your relationship or you need self-confidence, take out the candle on a Friday during a waxing moon and anoint it with love oil using this procedure: Put some oil on your index finger, and beginning in the middle of the candle, run your finger to the wick end. Then repeat, rubbing the oil down to the bottom of the candle. Light the candle and let it burn down completely and go out.

Moon Phase

The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waning Crescent phase. This phase is best viewed just before the sunrise in the western sky. 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. 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.

Today’s Waning Crescent Phase

The Waning Crescent on January 24 has an illumination of 24%. This is the percentage of the Moon illuminated by the Sun. The illumination is constantly changing and can vary up to 10% a day. On January 24 the Moon is 24.76 days old. This refers to how many days it has been since the last New Moon. It takes 29.53 days for the Moon to orbit the Earth and go through the lunar cycle of all 8 Moon phases.

Today’s Moon Sign: ♐ Sagittarius

The current zodiac moon sign is Sagittarius, positioned at 2.24° within the sign. The Moon entered Sagittarius on Jan 24, 5:05 AM and will shift into Capricorn on Jan 26, 8:21 AM. The zodiac moon sign represents the position of the Moon as it moves through the twelve signs of the zodiac.

25 January 2025 Current Moon Phase for the Southern Hemisphere

Source: nineplanets.org

The current moon phase for January 25th, 2025 is the Waning Crescent phase.

On this day, the moon is 25.11 days old and 20.55% illuminated with a tilt of -47.639°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 394,938.21 km and the moon sign is Sagittarius.

The Moon phase for January 25th, 2025 is a Waning Crescent phase. This is the phase where the moon is less than 50% illuminated but has not yet reached 0% illumination (which would be a New Moon).

In this part of the moon cycle, it is getting closer and closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing earth with a decreasingly thin crescent being illuminated.

The waning (shrinking) crescement Moon will rise at around midnight, transit the meridian after sunrise, before setting after noon. This phase is best viewed 1-2 hours before sunrise and is a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the illuminated crescent you can see the craters and mountains of the moon casting long shadows.

The Waxing Gibbous phase, like all moon phases, will last for just over 7 days. The actual length will vary because of the elliptical shaped orbit of the moon. During this Waxing Gibbous phase the moon will rise in the east in the mid- to late-afternoon and will be high in the eastern sky at sunset.

Assuming it’s a clear night, the Waxing Gibbous moon will then be visible through most of the night before setting just before sunrise.

Fun fact: the illuminated side of a waning crescent moon is always pointed eastwards, towards the sunrise.

 The name Aquarius comes from the Latin name for Water Bearer. This is the most common used name to define the zodiac sign for January 23 zodiac sign, however in Greek they call it Idroxoos and in Spanish Acuario.

 Opposite sign: Leo. This means that this sign and Aquarius are a straight line across each other on the zodiac wheel and can create an opposition aspect. This suggests originality and change as well as an interesting cooperation between the two sun signs.

 Modality: Fixed. This quality exposes the realistic nature of those born on January 23 and their tranquility and intelligence about most life situations.

January 23 Aquarius at Their Best: Brave, original, inspirational

January 23 Aquarius at Their Worst: Headstrong, insensitive, rebellious

What to Wear: Anything — from tie-dye and glitter to stripes, plaids and check, erratically combined.

What to Eat: Original dishes that reflect global consciousness. If it’s earth-friendly, local, or sustainable, Aquarius will celebrate it!

Who to Invite: If humanitarians like Angelina Jolie and Bono aren’t available, round up the usual suspects at the nearest protest rally.

Where to Go: In a public park — if weather makes that a no-go, move it into a unique space like an arcade, skating rink or museum.

JANUARY 23 birthday horoscope predicts that you are adaptable! You can be a very observant person through your natural curiosity. You can easily be described as a chameleon. Some would say that you are your person. People never know what’s on your mind. You can keep things to yourself.

You embrace who you are instead of hiding it. Although you like to socialize, you can be a loner. Find out more about what your birthday says about you?

The January 23 birthday personality are flexible in their thinking. You meet new people and thrive in situations in which you are in the spotlight. Aquarians are funny but intellectual people. On top of that, you are honest to a fault. Your bluntness can be offensive to people.

You are an Air sign. You have the only connection to this element. Like the wind, you never see it coming, but you know it is there. It somehow can push you over with its intense burst of energy or can be as subtle as a summer’s breeze. The air is very active and is all over the place very much like you, Aquarius. You are a force to be reckoned with, that is for sure.

The January 23 zodiac characteristics show that Uranus, however, is linked to your need for flight and independence. The combination influences you to be objective. There is little to be considered when it comes to the welfare of others, but you tend to withdraw when it comes to being concerned about yourself.

It is a self-defense method, I know, and your friends and family tend to accept that way about you, but your temper tantrums and sometimes childish behavior are unbecoming to you. Your many wonderful friends tolerate this behavior only in their clear need to please you.

According to the Aquarius birthday horoscope, when it comes to being traditional, you are just the opposite. Whether it is your hobby or some new trendy fashion, you find being different appealing. Sometimes, you go over the top. Going overboard comes naturally to you.

People weirdly look at you, but again, your friend’s kindness is all there to protect you. The January 23 horoscope also shows that your unpredictable nature makes it difficult to tell you certain things. Your ability to distance yourself from the world leaves your friends and family members at a loss without you.

You can be charming but levelheaded. Aquarians born on January 23 are fascinating people. You have a lot to talk about in your many plights for success. You have had a variety of career options. You are familiar with leadership and its position.

You do not even know you are special because the things you do, you believe should be done. According to you, Aquarius, there should not be a special reward for just doing your job.

The January 23 horoscope predicts that you make beautiful friends. However, your concern for others can sometimes lack compassion. The future of person who born on 23 January depends solely on how you relate to people.

Aquarian men may seem remote and unapproachable but are very approachable. You are charismatic, intelligent and creative. Most are very easy going, but they have an adamant side that is infuriating.

The female Aquarius is equally talented. She is full of surprises that could lead friendly to her endless creative abilities. She knows that it is her physical attributes that lure the interest of others but wish they could see past that. The independent Aquarius has lost a few loves because of their unwillingness to sacrifice their positions.

If today is your birthday, then you are down-to-earth. You are strong people, but you are not always silent. You seem to hold many things inside making you prone to illnesses and diseases. Often put in the position of a leader, you have many ideas and traits that extended from your upbringing.

You take pride in your family unit. Your parenting is that of discipline and encompasses many values your parents gave you, but they are somewhat upgraded or altered. With that, come some criticisms that you may or may not take into consideration.

Concluding, you are an Aquarius birthday. You need to explore and to satisfy your natural curiosity. You, on the surface, seem unapproachable but you are very easy going.

Your family means the world to you. Your creative ability makes it hard to settle down to just one idea. You are strong and independent. Life is just better with Aquarian by your side.
