Magickal Forecast for Thursday, 28 January 2021

---

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

• Magickal focus ~ Jupiter influence, social justice, healing, abundance, income, growth, achieving goals and desires.
• Numerology ~ 1/28/2021
  • Life Path – 7 – describes an intelligent person who is analytical and observant, and who favors time alone to think and discover.
  • Day – 28 – (Reduces to 1) – wholeness, unity, motivated, leadership presence, new beginnings
  • Challenges – minor challenges – creating self-sufficiency and taking responsibility for decisions and interactions with others; major challenge – taking responsibility for decisions and how you interact with others
• Rune Divination ~ Nauthiz, Wunjo, Eihwaz – describes the intrinsic need for harmony, both within and with others. Nauthiz, the Norn rune representing the future, provides the inner fire to create new experiences and perceptions. It signals that something has been amiss in our interactions with others and the inner need to correct our course. We draw down Spirit presence with Eihwaz, the rune that connects us to our Higher Self awareness. And from there, with Spirit as our guide, we invoke joy and fellowship with others. Unity consciousness is our natural state when in Spirit. There is no reason why that cannot be our truth in form.
• 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 ~ very bad

• Lunar position ~ (Full Moon – Mother phase) – Leo  – Now that the Moon is in Leo, self-assertion may increase and your natural leadership skills may be sought. However, you’ll need to balance that self-assertion with expressing compassion and empathy to avoid conflict due to intolerance or unrealistic expectations of others. Refer to the current Esoteric Influences for more information regarding today’s influences.
• Sign strength – we have six planets/planetary bodies in Aquarius today suggesting innovative thinking and group consciousness that builds toward progressive change. On the negative side, the Aquarian influence may impact one’s ability to remain sensitive to the emotions of others.
• Significant Aspects or patterns that may inspire or inform magickal workings. Lilith aspects are in their own category below this section:
  • Stelliums (power interactions)
    • Mars/Uranus/Lilith – describes out of the box thinking and risky behavior
    • Sun/Vulcan/Jupiter – expresses the courage to chart one’s own course with enthusiasm and optimism and the desire for recognition by others
    • Sun/Vulcan/Saturn – describes breaking through barriers to a more self-disciplined approach
    • Sun/Vulcan/Jupiter/Saturn/MC – balancing optimism and enthusiasm with self-discipline on a career path that is unconventional in nature.
  • Thor’s Hammer (Vulcan, Saturn, Uranus, Vesta) involves a diligent and patient approach to hard work and success and breaking through perceptions that enable you to live life on your own terms.
  • Sun (10th/Aquarius) square Mars (12th/Taurus) – suggests the potential for risky behavior and expressing oneself without causing conflict to break out
  • Sun (10th/Aquarius) square Uranus (12th/Taurus) – describes a lack of impulse control that can either work for or against you, especially if called to a leadership role
  • Venus (9th/Capricorn) conjunct Pluto (9th/Capricorn) – indicates a preference for drama or extreme emotions in relationships
  • Mars (12th/Taurus) square Jupiter (10th/Aquarius) – signals excessive behavior and a lack of self-discipline
  • Mars (12th/Taurus) conjunct Uranus (12th/Taurus) – describes a tendency to take unnecessary risk (a protection spell might be in order here)
  • Jupiter (10th/Aquarius) conjunct Saturn (10th/Aquarius) – describes balancing freedom with restriction and the need for self-discipline and structure.
  • Jupiter (10th/Aquarius) square Uranus (12th/Taurus) – suggests moderation in expression and desires
  • Saturn (10th/Aquarius) square Uranus (12th/Taurus) – describes issues with authority and compromise furthered on by inadequacy
  • Saturn (10th/Aquarius) sextile Chiron (12th/Aries) – indicates perseverance through emotional difficulties and from that experience to assist others on their own path
• Ascendant – Taurus – signals a practical, pragmatic approach, structure, stability, favors routine, careful planning and decision-making, organized.
• Polarity – Masculine (13), Feminine (10) – projective energies provide the strongest impact favoring motivation and self-assertion
• Elemental Influence ~  Air (intellect, reason, balance, communication) and Earth (material/physical concerns) provide the strongest influences with both nearing balance with each other. Water (emotions, compassion) and Fire (will, creativity, motivation) are less of an influence but in near balance with each other.
• Energetic Quality/Mode ~  Fixed (stable) sign energies dominate the other qualities followed by Cardinal or sign qualities that are motivating or initiating. With Mutable in the weakest position, flexibility and adaptation may prove challenging.
• Rays ~ The 1st Ray of will and power remains at the same level while the 5th Ray of concrete knowledge and science continues to provide the strongest impact on our perceptions today signaling a focus on scientific knowledge and truth. The 3rd, 4th, and 7th Rays have lessoned somewhat in their effect or impact indicating intellectual expression giving way to compromise is less and manifestation may prove challenging. Even the 2nd Ray (love/wisdom) and the 6th Ray of devotion and idealism continue to have less of an impact which has been contributing to the focus on conspiracy instead of scientific or objective truth. Again, the 2nd Ray acts as a counterbalance to the 6th, and if in balance, it can provide a wiser influence on the potential cult-like effect of the 6th. With the lesser influence today, particularly of the 2nd ray, a higher expression of wisdom or perspective may be lacking. For further information, this post may be helpful.
• Black Moon Lilith ~ Taurus — remaining in your comfort zone is tempting, but it also signals an unwillingness to take risks toward a better outcome. In the 12th House of fear, restriction, and unseen forces, the risk may involve containing the darker aspects of self. A square between The Sun and our dark Goddess, as well as the same with Jupiter, indicates excessive behavior is likely today. A conjunct with Uranus supports this tendency suggesting that you don’t like restriction, while a conjunct today between Mars and Lilith cautions against overreaction.
• Node influences ~ N Node – Gemini; S Node – Sagittarius describes the need for self-control and a focus on a spiritual perspective. The challenge involves understanding the viewpoints of others as well as expressing your own in a helpful manner. A square continues between Neptune in Pisces and both the North and South Nodes signaling a focus on fantasy or imagination and suggests that maintaining your physical health will help ground and center your perspective and provide a foundation for creative success.
• Lunar Phase ~ Mother phase; Full on 28 Jan 2021 at 11:17 AM PST at 09°Le05
• Mansion of the Moon ~ 11th – Azobra – 8°Leo; hair of the lion’s head, increases profits, positive for travel, taking captives
• Retrograde ~ Vesta – now in Virgo, look inward to better define your expectations of others so that you respect boundaries and the input or expertise of others; Vulcan – address inner challenges that keep you from succeeding; Mercury turns Retrograde on 31 Jan 2021 at 26°Aq28′
