Saturday, February 2, 2013, 23 Elaphebolion, no particular dedication, 6th night of the Waning Moon, starting Void of Course in Libra, then entering Scorpio 7:02 A.M., starting in the 17th Mansion of the Moon, Al Iklil/Alichil, good for positive work on plans and situations already in motion, and for establishing new, powerful connections, then entering the 18th Mansion of the Moon, Al Kalb/Alkab, good for plots and revenge, around 11:00 P.M. Today is also Imbolc/Candlemas, when we celebrate and nurture the newborn light and the quickening pulse of the world Planetary Hours of the Day begin with Saturn at 7:05 A.M., and last 50.6 minutes. Planetary Hours of the Night commence with the Mercury at 5:13 P.M., lasting 69.4 minutes. Sun in Aquarius, Mercury in Aquarius, Venus in Aquarius, Mars in Pisces, Jupiter in Gemini, Saturn in Scorpio. A good day to work on plots and schemes, to judiciously prune out the deadwood without damaging the new shoots. Magically, a good day to look over your shoulder, and slow down your competitors (think of all the wonderful toys on James Bond’s Aston Martin).
