Wednesday, May 07, 2014, 9 Hekatombaion, no particular dedication, seige of Orleans broken by Joan d’Arc 1429, founding of New Orleans 1718, independence of Greece from Turkey 1832, death of Otto I, Holy Roman Emperor 685 AD, 9th night of the Waxing Moon, starting in Leo, then going Void of Course from 6:51 A.M. through the rest of the day, starting in the 11th Mansion of the Moon, Al Zubrah/Azobra, which is good for reversing negative opinions and judgments, then entering the 12th Mansion of the Moon, Al Sarfah/Acarfal, good for friendship and charitable acts, around 5:00 P.M. Planetary Hours of the Day begin with Mercury at 5:47 A.M., and last 70.8 minutes. Planetary Hours of the Night commence with the Sun at 7:57 P.M., lasting 49.2 minutes, Sun in Taurus, Mercury starts in Taurus, then moves into Gemini 10:57 A.M., Venus in Aries, Mars retrograde in Libra, Jupiter in Cancer, Saturn retrograde Scorpio. Saturn keeps our focus close to home today, being square to the Moon and retrograde, just as the Moon goes Void of Course. Expect to have to cope with the issues being presented by friends and family, as everyone’s focus will be within the social group. Fortunately, the movement of the Moon through the 11th to 12th Mansions molds the day into supporting magicks which will provide aid and assistance.
