Monday, July 21, 2014, 25 Boedromion, no particular dedication in the Athenian Calendar, in Roman rites the second day of the celebration of the Lucaria, dedicated to the Deities presiding over groves, death of Robert Burns 1796, 9th night of the Waning Moon, starting in Taurus, then going Void of Course from 10:13 A.M. to 12:35 P.M., then entering Gemini, ruled over by the 12th Decan, Thiumis, 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 8:30 P.M. Hours of the Day begin with the Moon at 5:41 A.M., and last 73.4 minutes. Planetary Hours of the Night commence with Venus at 8:22 P.M., lasting 46.6 minutes, Sun in Cancer, Mercury in Planetary Cancer, Venus in Cancer, Mars in Libra, Jupiter in Leo, Saturn in Scorpio. With both the Sun and Jupiter sextile to the Moon today, you should find it easier to stake out your ground and assert the validity of your position. We are all confronted by questioning what we have done in the past, as Uranus goes retrograde today (joining Neptune and Pluto, and all three remain so for months). However, now that Saturn is direct, we should all be able to move forward. The move into the 6th Mansion in the evening cautions us to not let others have it with both barrels, and to turn one’s frustrations into a more prudent channel. Use one’s magicks to deflect the aggression of others back on them.
