Thursday, January 30, 2014, 30 Elaphebolion, no particular dedication, New Moon in Aquarius, Oliver Cromwell ritually executed 2 years after his natural death 1661, execution of King Charles I 1649, assassination of Mahatma Gandhi 1948, starting in the 24th Mansion of the Moon, Al Sulud/Caaddcohot, good for overcoming those against you, general success, then entering the 25th Mansion of the Moon, Al Alibiya/Caadulhachbia, good for hindering the activities of others, revenge, around 3:00 P.M. Planetary Hours of the Day begin with Jupiter at 7:08 A.M., and last 50.1 minutes. Planetary Hours of the Night commence with the Moon at 5:09 P.M., lasting 69.9 minutes. Sun in Aquarius, Mercury in Aquarius, Venus retrograde in Capricorn, Mars in Libra, Jupiter retrograde in Cancer, Saturn in Scorpio. It’s a good New Moon; of course the Sun and Moon are conjunct (duh), but this is combined today with the Moon also being sextile Uranus, all of which encourages fresh starts and the facility to pull together plans, schedules, and courses of action. Magically, a good day to prepare the ground for dynamic changes in one’s life.
