- Sunday ~ 19/1 – express unity with others today and allow intuition to guide your path. New beginnings are possible if we come together in shared purpose.
- Monday ~ 20/2 – issues of balance are impacted by the cause and effect nature of self-isolation. Understand the truth and choose wisely.
- Tuesday ~ 21/3 – use today’s catalytic energy to balance mind, body, and Spirit choosing a Higher Self focus to inform your decisions.
- Wednesday ~ 22 – a powerful energetic gateway (4/22/22) opens today with an emphasis on rebuilding our relationships with others. As the Cosmic Builder, this Master Number energy promises profound change both within and without.
- Thursday ~ 23/5 – protecting all that we’ve built together is important now as change is in effect. Today, we’re building on the strength of yesterday’s energetic gateway as we move forward in shared purpose.
- Friday ~ 24/6 – as we continue to feel the profound effect of Wednesday’s 22 gateway, the natural expression of harmony and benevolence both provide a powerful influence on the outcome of the pandemic. Extend yourself to others but do so safely.
- Saturday ~ 25/7 – understand that dark forces are impacting the nation’s recovery with undermining experienced on every level. Step back from the fray and observe who is helping and who is hurting the outcome and place your efforts and support in the correct camp.
Runes for the Week
- Sunday ~ Eihwaz (13) – while the pandemic continues, it’s important to keep your vibration high, both to support immune system function as well as to remain out of fear and focused on a positive outcome. Meditation can be useful to maintain a higher level of alignment. Meaning: connection between opposites, as above so below, link between realms, trance work, protection, Air/Fire
- Monday ~ Nauthiz (10) – as self-isolation continues, use the friction within to stay vigilant in our collective attempt to stop the virus. As a powerful Norn rune, Nauthiz binds energies together in shared purpose to overcome restriction and create a positive future. Meaning: Norn (Skuld) rune of the future, friction within, inner fire, goals, protection, overcoming restriction, binding, positive change, need
- Tuesday ~ Tiwaz (17) – the strength of the spiritual warrior within may be required today if others are still unclear as to the reason for self-isolation. The confusion caused by those in charge who continue their own denial is putting the entire country at risk. Stay home, stay safe, and save lives…including your own. Meaning: spiritual warrior, faith, justice, idealistic male, oaths, self-discipline, Tyr, legal matters, sacrifice, Air
- Wednesday ~ Algiz (15) – with a 22 day, the Cosmic Builder provides the foundation for great change today, and with Algiz also influencing, Spirit has a powerful impact on our awareness and perception. Today’s 4 22 22 gateway opens as well with Algiz providing the channel for that energy to bless and support humanity. Meaning: elk, protection, BiFrost bridge between physical and astral realms, higher consciousness, divinity
- Thursday ~ Wunjo (8) – as we continue to feel the effect of yesterday’s energetic gateway of profound change, we move forward in shared purpose and harmony with others to achieve a positive outcome regarding the pandemic. Although restrictions are difficult for anyone to endure, we understand the greater purpose involved and know it’s the only way to survive the pandemic. Meaning: joy, wish rune, peace, fellowship, harmony, success, happiness
- Friday ~ Thurisaz (3) – with impulsive behavior on the rise of late, use today’s catalytic energy to stay vigilant and focused on the truth. Although others may wish to sow discord and chaos, those with a greater understanding will focus their own efforts on protection and a positive outcome. Meaning: Thor’s Hammer, defense, new beginnings, protection, opposition, impulsive behavior, giants, chaos, weather magick
- Saturday ~ Perthro (14) – we consider our ultimate fate today, particularly as others choose to risk it all and ignore the medical professionals’ counsel about the pandemic’s effect. We must choose now between the need to break free and the understanding of its cost. Perthro asks us to observe and understand the synchronicities now before us and believe their message. Protecting the country isn’t a sign of weakness, but one that preserves humanity as a whole. To do otherwise speaks to a level of greed that will destroy us in the end. Meaning: birth, womb, chance, well of Wyrd, childbirth, healing, understanding fate, cause/effect, synchronicity, cauldron, divination
Lunar Influences
- Sunday ~ Pisces – empathic ability is strong today for those so inclined. Otherwise, emotions may be in flux today and an emotional response may overshadow reason or logic. Be gentle on yourself and know that whatever measures you take will preserve not only your own life but others as well.
- Monday ~ Pisces until Aries at 12:01 AM PDT – we see an increase in energy today with the potential there for a loss of impulse control. Find a physical outlet such as exercise if feeling restless or impatient with self or others.
- Tuesday ~ Aries – if self-isolating with others, try to maintain a tactful approach. If that’s not possible, then channel any strong impulses into something physical or perhaps a video game that satisfies any need for power and control. Tuesday offers its own catalytic energy through its correspondence with Mars, so accept how you feel but channel it in a manner that preserves the integrity and sovereignty of others in the process.
- Wednesday ~ Aries until Taurus at 12:36 PM PDT – catalytic energies transition into energies that are more stable when the Moon travels into Taurus in the afternoon. Persistence and diligence are favored particularly if energies have been volatile or scattered. The 4 22 22 gateway that opens today promises profound change that is foundational in nature, so use the Taurean influence to begin that process.
- Thursday ~ Taurus – use this day to assess your situation and take care of basic needs. Water your plants if you have any and if planning a garden, it’s time to proceed with either starting seeds for later transplanting, or preparing the garden space itself. Otherwise, it’s a good day to address routine concerns.
- Friday ~ Taurus – while taking care of routine concerns continues, don’t forget to take time out to appreciate your efforts. Take a moment to reflect and to express gratitude for the love you share with others and for the awakening that’s at hand.
- Saturday ~ Taurus until Gemini at 12:20 AM PDT – we move from a more serious focus to one that is more social today. Engage safely with others, but by all means, do engage with others. As self-isolation continues, remaining engaged with family and friends is vital so that we know we’re not completely alone. If estranged from anyone at the moment, make the effort to reach out and let them know they matter. It could make all the difference for someone who is older or who lives alone. We need each other now, more than ever, so stay engaged…and call your parents. It’s not a sign of weakness to love.
Wisdom from the I Ching
Human Design involves the blending of the planetary positions with the I Ching. The I Ching consists of sixty-four guas (hexagrams), each one containing six lines with their own specific message. You can see from the above Rave Mandela how the hexagrams or guas are arranged around the chart with the bodygram in the center.
Most planets, particularly the outer planets as well as the Sun, remain in roughly the same place, changing only their line numbers throughout the week. The Moon, however, changes both its Gate and Line number daily. In addition, as planets move, energetic channels may form between the gates and when they do, I’ll include them because they can provide underlying supportive energies which may be helpful.
19 April 2020 ~ A volatile situation is developing as those in power in this country are influencing others to ignore the pandemic and return to daily life. This will only cause more harm, yet greed is at its core. The Sun’s placement at Gate 3 Line 4 Charisma, the Earth at 50.4 Corruption, and the Moon at 63.4 Memory indicate a malefic force at work that cares nothing for the survival of the people, only the survival of their own power and control over others.
Instead, the cultish effect has become even more pronounced as people take to the streets in defiance of state orders to stay home, viewing it as an impingement on their sovereignty, instead of the protection it’s designed to provide.
The South Node’s placement at 10.4 the Opportunist suggests the opportunity for a higher awareness is possible that can foster a positive outcome if we all understand its fundamental truth while Mercury at 21.4 cautions a clear response to disinformation and chaos.
Understand that powerful forces, dark and dangerous, are attempting to leave us in disarray with the worst outcome the likely result. Understand who they are and their purpose, because it’s not about the preservation of life but the preservation of their own power and control.
20 April 2020 ~ With yesterday’s truth revealed the path opens to survive in spite of any grievance-based deception (Sun at 3.5 Victimization) and the chaos that follows. The Earth at 50.5 Consistency counsels us to remain on the path of what’s working, i.e. social distancing, protective coverings, and staying home whenever possible while others interpret this as asserting personal sovereignty at the expense of a successful collective outcome.
The Moon provides the space at 36.5 The underground to support our survival at any cost as we take whatever course necessary to stay well and survive supported further by the North Node’s continued placement at 10.4 the Opportunist.
Mercury at 21.6 promises Chaos from ineffective leadership whose ego is so self-dealing that he either cannot understand the effect of his actions or is in fact expressing the sadist within. Understand this and refuse to be a party to his destructive chaos.
Empathy is required now of each one of us because it’s sorely lacking in the current leader in charge with Mars at 13.1. Pleas for PPE go unheard and worse, as hospitals are forced to use clandestine methods to both purchase and receive vital equipment and supplies for front line workers and patients. But with Jupiter’s strong appeal at 61.6, it is the voice of truth that can be heard now.
Three Channels are active in today’s bodygraph (chart) as well: the Channel of Transitoriness involving Gates 35 the Darkening of the Light/Gate of Crisis and 36 Progress/Gate of Change; the Channel of Preservation involving Gates 27 Nourishment and 50 The Cauldron; and, The Channel of Mutation involving Gates 3 Difficulty at the Beginning and 60 Acceptance. All energetic channels establish that while this period in our lives is difficult, it can be made less so by leadership that desires an outcome where the people survive, something that appears absent on the federal level.
21 April 2020 ~ the Channel of Preservation involving Gates 27 Nourishment and 50 The Cauldron; and, The Channel of Mutation involving Gates 3 Difficulty at the Beginning and 60 Acceptance are both still active today fostering a shared path forward during the pandemic, irrespective of any deception from the federal government.
As with Sunday’s I Ching influences, we look again at the Sun at 3.6 Surrender, the Earth at 50.6 Leadership, and the Moon at 17.5 No human is an island for guidance. Interdependence is the path forward as we work together to provide the virus with no more victims. Leaders have emerged in the form of governors and individuals who continue to speak the truth and search for solutions. Instead of resisting the agreed-upon path, we should instead express the maturity required to align in solidarity until the virus is vanquished.
An executor is needed (Uranus at 27.5) to effectively lead us now that the president is either unfit, unwell or otherwise inept, to distribute vital resources to the areas hardest hit because it’s clear that the federal government will not do so.
The Martyr (South Node at 10.3) in the White House must stand alone in his attempts at destroying the citizenry in an effort to meet the needs of his overlords who guide his every move. He believes himself to be smarter than everyone with his withdrawal and defeat (Mercury at 51.2) the only result possible when divisiveness and bigotry (Mars at 13.2) are all that defines him.
22 April 2020 ~ Selfishness expressed with the Sun at 27.1 describes a self-oriented choice or approach that ignores its effect upon others. With today’s 4 22 22 energetic gateway opening, the opportunity exists to move away from egoic reactions and align with our true nature, one that is in collective harmony with others.
The Earth and her children are in danger now from a virus that has developed into a pandemic and any selfishness expressed by anyone will only increase the danger. Dark forces are resisting their demise and increasing their profound effect upon those unable to resist their powerful influence. However, the Light has returned and the awakening process is in full force so a positive outcome is assured by the collective consciousness.
As the preparations take place (Earth at 28.1), at times necessarily in secret, we leave no detail unaddressed in an effort to overcome the harmful machinations of the federal government who should realistically be in lockstep with the rest of the country, yet is not. As more and more of us self-isolate, if doing so alone, it increases the worry that we all experience. So, include others in your preparations, even if at a distance. Check-in with them and do so often so that we all can feel a little less alone while we survive this pandemic.
While more Limitation (Mercury at 51.4) is experienced from the president and his administration, his ineffectual approach will fail as others step up to lead us through this crisis as they, not the president, establish the foundation to move the country forward.
We must, as a country, take advantage of this 4 22 22 gateway to reestablish who we are both as a nation and to each other. Either we unite as is our fundamental truth, or we perish in chaos.
23 April 2020 – today we may struggle with the impact of the federal government’s lack of leadership on the pandemic, especially if stimulus checks haven’t yet arrived. Some lunatics apparently believe that receiving $1200 should carry them for roughly ten weeks which illustrates the arrogance and idiocy of the people in charge (Sun at 27.2 self-sufficiency).
This lack of fundamental awareness is by design, however, predicated by selfishness and greed experienced by the Moon at 27.1. The Who Me? attitude expressed by the president with the North Node at 15.3 Ego-Inflation suggests he’s so full of his own ego that he’ll never see the harm he’s causing, preferring to blame everyone other than himself for the outcome. Instead, he expects everyone to Shake hands with the devil (Earth at 28.2) and pretend that his efforts are perfect, that the call was perfect, that everything he does is perfect…when it surely is not.
Jupiter’s placement at 60.1 fosters acceptance and maintains harmony within and without in an effort to continue on in spite of the chaos instigated by the federal government. Saturn reinforces this choice with the rigidity expressed by its placement at 60.5 allowing us to stay the course until the pandemic is over. But it’s clear that fatigue (Mars at 13.4) has settled in given that we would have likely gotten through this much more quickly had we begun the process sooner and moved forward in a unified approach.
24 April 2020 ~ there’s something to be said for altruism particularly when it results in a better outcome for all. With Venus at 35.5, altruistic personal sacrifice is required now so that we give the virus no further purchase. It’s clear that the greed expressed by the president and his minions with the Sun at 27.3 is driving their dangerous approach in managing the pandemic causing many to question just who it is he’s managing the pandemic for? Because the goal of actually healing and supporting the country and its citizens seems non-existent at this juncture.
The administration takes risks (Earth at 28.3 Adventurism) that should never be taken in a situation like this, desiring to open the country at a time when the virus has not flattened enough to safely do so. Although it’s understandable that work needs to resume, doing so before we’ve healed enough makes zero sense and will likely set us back weeks if not months.
Instead, ignore the Mad King and allow your inner genius to emerge (Moon at 2.2) and intuitively know that self-isolating, social distancing, and protective coverings are what’s in store for a while longer and be at peace with that choice.
25 April 2020 ~ on this day of balance (25/7) we can stand apart from our experiences and observe them from a distance with clarity and resolve. The Earth at 28.4 asks us to hold on a while longer and to exploit every opportunity for a successful outcome. Service to others is expressed by the Moon at 8.2 and welcomed at this time while we share in generosity with others (Sun at 27.4).
Allow the ego inflation (North Node at 1.3) by the president to burn out on its own and give him no attention for his ignorance and stupidity as he will be dealt with later.
Let the 22 energy of the year and of the energetic gateway that opened on Wednesday guide your way forward, now and into the future. Our fundamental reality is one in Source Presence and any further division will never sustain that truth.
Blessings to all!
