Wednesday is governed by Mercury. Below are its corresponding energies as well as the current transit chart for the witch’s perusal.


  • Magickal focus ~  Mercury influence, communication, interactions, balance, justice, revelation
  • Time ~ Dawn – healing, new beginnings, study, purification; Noon – strength, opportunity, success, protection, wealth; Sunset – letting go, release; Night – spirituality, aligning with Spirit, healing, dreamwork, visions
  • Favorable/Unfavorable for Magick ~ neutral


  • Lunar position ~ Capricorn – The Capricorn Moon may have you re-evaluating your plans and shifting your focus to a more conservative approach. However, if you’re feeling out of sorts or under stress take a dispassionate view of the situation and potentially discover how past woundings might be impacting the present (Moon square Chiron). This can be a time of great healing as you let go of emotions and perceptions that no longer serve your present reality.
  • Significant Aspects that may inspire or inform magickal workings:
    • Sun (10th/Libra) opposite Lilith (4th/Aries) – concerns restlessness that impedes success
    • Mercury (10th/Scorpio R) opposite Uranus (4th/Taurus R) – balance assertion with respect for the input of others
    • Mercury (10th/Scorpio R) conjunct Juno (10th/Scorpio) – understand how you come across today and the impact your words have on those closest to you
    • Mars (4th/Aries, R) square Jupiter (1st/Capricorn) – self-discipline required to avoid judgment or impulsivity
    • Jupiter (1st/Capricorn) sextile Neptune (3rd/Pisces R) – caring and loving attitude toward partners, understands the concerns of others
    • Saturn (1st Hs/Capricorn) conjunct Pluto (1st Hs/Capricorn) – describes expressions of power and the value of self-discipline
  • Polarity – Masculine (11), Feminine (12)
  • Elemental Influence ~ Earth energies are strongest today with Air (intellect/reason) following. Water still is the lesser influence suggesting adaptability may be impacted today.
  • Energetic Quality/Mode ~ Cardinal qualities are strongest and you should feel motivated today to accomplish a variety of tasks.
  • Rays ~ All Rays are influencing today with Rays 1 (will/power), 3 (active intelligence), 4 (harmony through conflict), and 7 (ceremonial order/magick) having the strongest influence suggesting that we balance will with intellect as we embrace a shared path forward.
  • Black Moon Lilith ~ 4th House/Aries — family may prove challenging and you may not realize how a lack of impulse control affects others. Establish boundaries with others in a manner that respects all.
  • Node influences ~ N Node – 7th Hs/Gemini; S Node – 1st Hs/Sagittarius describes the need for self-control and focus on a spiritual perspective. The challenge involves understanding the viewpoints of others as well as expressing your own in a helpful manner. Avoid self-defeating behavior.
  • Lunar Phase ~ Waxing; 1st Qtr – 23 Oct 2020 at 6:24 AM PDT at 00°Aqu35′
  • Mansion of the Moon ~ 22nd – Caadaldeba – 1°Cap – head of Capricorn; encourages prisoners and servants to flee, cures disease
  • Retrograde ~ Mercury (interactions are tricky, avoid signing contracts or purchasing electronics, take nothing for granted); Chiron (allow for inner transformation, letting go of past woundings); Neptune (let go of illusion and discern the truth); Uranus (allow for the unexpected and focus on change from within); Mars (potentially intensifies the inner expression of will)
