Saturday, October 25, 2014, 3 Gamelion, dedicated to Athena, Battle of Agincourt 1415, Colombus lands on Hispanola 1492, George II crowned King 1760, death of Geoffrey Chaucer 1400, 3rd night of the Waxing Moon, in Scorpio, going Void of Course from 12:11 P.M. through the rest of the day, overseen by the 22nd Decan, Sentacer, ruled by Mars, starting in the 18th Mansion of the Moon, Al Kalb/Alkab, good for plots and revenge, then entering the 19th Mansion, Al Shaulah/ Exaula, good for all defensive and aggressive work, around 9:00 A.M. Planetary Hours of the Day begin with Saturn at 7:17 A.M., and last 53.75 minutes. Planetary Hours of the Night commence with Mercury at 6:02 P.M., lasting 66.25 minutes, Sun in Scorpio, Mercury retrograde in Libra, goes direct 3:17 P.M. Venus in Scorpio, Mars in Sagittarius, Jupiter in Leo, Saturn in Scorpio. Just how charming can one be today? It might be possible to overdo it, but on the whole, the answer is, “as much as you wish to be (or even if you don’t)”. the big news today if the Sun is conjunct Venus early in the morning, which should allow one to let down one’s guard, and be a more charming self. This pairs up with the Moon squaring Jupiter later in the morning, which can goad one to lay it on too thick, and then the Scorpio Moon occludes Saturn just as it goes Void of Course, which knocks the blocks out from under the wheels. The net result is allowing personalites to blaze a bit too hot, so reign it all in. Finally, mercury goes direct in the afternoon. As this has been a fairly innocuous retrograde period, expect all the crossed signals that were not an interference over the last three weeks to attempt a manifestation. All in all, I’d go with being your most sparkling self, without going overboard. As for one’s magicks, it’s the sort of day when doing love magick will achieve rapid effects, with the caution that there’s a difference between drawing love and affection in general, and targeting a particular person, which is easy to do by tapping into the energies of the 19th Mansion. Remember, a little command and compel goes a long way. It might be better to win over one’s enemies with kindness, rather than turning out love slaves.
