Sunday, February 16, 2014, 17 Mounichion, in Roman rites the day of the Lupercalia, purifiying the city by the sacrifice of a goat, a dog, and of salted mealcakes, “God bless you” was promulgated by Pope Gregory as the proper response to a sneeze 600 AD, 1st night of the Waning Moon, in Virgo, starting in the 13th Mansion of the Moon, Al Awwa/Alahue, good for aid, comfort, assistance, then entering the 14th Mansion, Al Simak/ Azimech, good for promoting love, health; bad for land travel, good for other modes, around 1 :00 P.M. Planetary Hours of the Day begin with the Sun at 6:49 A.M., and last 53.4 minutes. Planetary Hours of the Night commence with Jupiter at 5:30 P.M., lasting 66 minutes. Sun in Aquarius, Mercury retrograde in Aquarius, Venus in Capricorn, Mars in Libra, Jupiter retrograde in Cancer, Saturn in Scorpio. This can be a pretty good day, as long as you go with the flow, and don’t let expectations get in the way. Sticking to plans is difficult with both Jupiter and mercury being retrograde. That being said, the Moon is sextile Jupiter and trine Venus allows for interesting social interactions, the dynamic of them being governed by Mercury being trine Mars. Sometimes it is better to hear what you want to hear, rather than what was actually being said. All this can lead to some pretty random hookups (think of the action in “Midsummer’s Night Dream” while the characters are all roaming around in the woods outside Athens). A good day for drawing things to you, as long as express your desires in general terms.
