Saturday, January 11, 2014, Elaphebolion, dedicated to Dionysus, 2nd day of the City Dionysia, in Roman practice dedicated to Carmenta, a power who looks into the past and future, and to Juturna, a Goddess of springs and fountains, birth of Emperor Theodosius I 347 A.D., the Moons of Uranus discovered 1787, death of Ambrose Bierce 1914, 11th night of the Waxing Moon, starting in Taurus, then going Void of Course from 5:58 A.M. to 7:25 A.M., then entering Gemini, starting in the 5th Mansion of the Moon Al Haq’a/Almices, good for healing, building, children, the return of lost things, then entering the 6th Mansion of the Moon, Al Han’ah/Athaya, a day for stirring things up, promoting cruel and destructive acts, agricultural disasters, around 3:30 P.M. Planetary Hours of the Day begin with Saturn at 7:19 A.M., and last 47.33 minutes. Planetary Hours of the Night commence with Mercury at 4:47 P.M., lasting 72.66 minutes. Sun in Capricorn, Mercury starts in Capricorn, then moves into Aquarius 4:35 P.M., Venus retrograde in Capricorn, Mars in Libra, Jupiter retrograde in Cancer, Saturn in Scorpio. Well, this would seem to be a day to spur on increased libido, and unfettered acting out. Remember the feeling of being six or seven years of age, and running amok in the park? Hpoefully, you will be able to keep your joy in due bounds, as to avoid the crying jag that usually accomanied this sort of lack of restraint. Both the Sun and the retrograde Venus are sextile Saturn, with the Sun being conjunct Venus, and the Moon is trine Mercury. All this combines to lift the lid off the id. It’s a powerful day for magicks, but the forces invoked can quickly overwhelm any attempts at control. The train can go off the tracks.
