Sunday, 25 April 2021
- Numerology – 7
- Rune – Inguz
- Geomancy – Caput Draconis
- Moon – Libra, Maiden Moon
- Human Design Channels – Wavelength
- Magickal Focus – Sun, clarity, truth, healing, courage, removing barriers, leadership
Step back if a situation is unclear or changing, taking time to reevaluate it from a broader perspective. If it’s a new path you’re on, there may be a variety of directions you can take, and more research may be necessary to make the best choice.
With the Moon in Libra, you prefer harmony and beautiful surroundings to conflict or harsh circumstances; and, in the 5th House, children play an integral role in your fundamental happiness. If decisions become challenging on Sunday, it may be that your emotional balance is off or that you’re not taking care of your own needs. If so, it may be necessary to reestablish your boundaries so that a better exchange is preserved.
Although you may feel like stepping away from a situation, be generous with your time and aware of opportunities that benefit the greater good. Let go of feelings of inadequacy that stimulate an ego that is easily manipulated by others so that more realistic perceptions form.
Favorability for working magick: very bad – On this Maiden phase of tomorrow’s Full Pink Moon, you can begin to bring intentions set on the New Moon to fruition. With favorability in its very bad state, you may want to simply spend time in meditation this evening to find clarity and experience healing.

Monday – 26 April 2021
- Numerology – 8
- Rune – Hagalaz
- Geomancy – Fortuna Minor
- Moon – Full; Libra until Scorpio at 9:19 AM PDT; VOC from 5:39 AM PDT to 9:18 AM PDT
- Human Design Channels – Preservation
- Magickal Focus – Moon, feminine magicks, healing, intuition, cycles, reincarnation, astral travel, balance, change
Hagalaz indicates that more reevaluation may be necessary again today so that progress can be made, even if it results in baby steps. Look to others with more experience for additional input and then collaborate to achieve the best outcome.
With the Moon entering Scorpio in the morning, your penchant for drama may increase. A creative outlet may help in that regard to focus that energy into something more constructive. That said, self-confidence is strong and you rise easily to any opportunities that come your way. The Moon turns full at 8:31 PM PDT, so spend some time under her light and draw down her blessings.
If called to a leadership position with others, you’re able to provide an effective distribution of resources available to your team. Align with outside forces to improve success but avoid being influenced by those with less experience. Remain patient and let your natural awareness and timing influence a positive outcome.
Favorability of working magick: very good – Bring any intentions set on the New Moon to fruition this evening and work a spell for healing and balance. Use moonstone or selenite on the altar and include white or silver candles for purification. Scribe Hagalaz into the candles and burn myrrh in the cauldron to bring forth transformation.
Aspects:
- Moon trine Mars
- Moon square Pluto

Tuesday, 27 April 2021
- Numerology – 9
- Rune – Berkano
- Geomancy – Carcer
- Moon – Scorpio, Crone phase
- Human Design Channels – none
- Magickal Focus – Mars influence, passion, manifestation, creativity, self-assertion, reducing conflict
It’s been a difficult year and it may feel as if your life is turned upside down by a pandemic and the unhelpful choices of others. But don’t allow their disruptive impact to prevent you from choosing a more healing path. Instead, let go of outmoded perceptions so that true healing can take place.
You may struggle with balancing your own needs with the needs of others. But you should know that if your own needs aren’t met, you really can’t be of any use to anyone else. Remain adaptable to changing emotions, those of others as well as your own, and become adept at changing your strategy as needed.
Set healthy boundaries and be realistic in what you can do to assist others. Desperation and compulsive behavior can lead to a win at all costs approach and it won’t achieve anyone’s intended outcome. So set an example for others to follow and let your values and principles lead the way.
Favorability of working magick: very good – During the Crone phase of the Full Moon meditation is useful or magicks involving self-assertion can be worked. Use amethyst on the altar and burn basil for self-empowerment in the cauldron along with some dragon’s blood incense for strength.
Aspects:
- Moon opposite Mercury
- Moon opposite Venus
- Moon square Saturn
- Moon trine Pallas

Wednesday, 28 April 2021
- Numerology – 1
- Rune – Sowilo
- Geomancy – Tristitia
- Moon – Scorpio until Sagittarius at 8:43 AM PDT; VOC 5:31 AM PDT to 8:42 AM PDT
- Human Design Channels – The Beat
- Magickal Focus – Mercury, communication, interactions, balance, justice, revelation
Self-confidence is high and your leadership may be called upon today by others. That said, keep your temper in check and avoid a secretive attitude with those around you.
As the Moon travels into Sagittarius during the morning, you may feel like setting out on an adventure. That said, if responsibility calls, hang in there, especially if others are relying upon you for guidance or leadership. Given that your relationship with co-workers is important to you, it’s best not to abandon them to your own desires.
You have the ability to motivate others but it’s important to do that in full clarity of their strengths as well as the current situation. Express a level of humility that reflects a spiritual purpose and support others on their own path. Use your higher awareness to find what works and what doesn’t and provide a framework for success to unfold.
Favorability of working magick: very bad – avoid working magick today unless an emergency arises. If communication is the issue, then magicks involving such can be worked as long as you ward or protect the area from any vampiric intrusion. Burn frankincense to reveal truth and include lavender in a smudge to increase clarity and communication.
Aspects:
- Moon square Jupiter
- Moon square The Midheaven
Magickal Correspondences
- Element – Air
- Color – yellow, purple
- Crystal – Agate, emerald, fluorite, topaz, citrine, red marble

Thursday, 29 April 2021
- Numerology – 11
- Rune – Thurisaz
- Geomancy – Laetitia
- Moon – Sagittarius
- Human Design Channels – Rhythm
- Magickal Focus – Jupiter, social justice, healing, abundance, income, growth, achieving goals and desires.
On this Master Number eleven day, you break through challenges and obstacles and allow Spirit to inform your choices and experiences. Yesterday’s influence of Tristitia on your temper softens today with its complement, Laetitia, reflecting a more positive attitude. Intuition is strong as is your imagination.
Experience is your best teacher today and you use that awareness to know when to allow your emotions to influence your decisions and when to look for a better strategy. You value close relationships that are built on reciprocity and enjoy the give and take they provide.
You feel in the flow with others today and find it easy to wait for the right moment to act. Avoid any self-imposed irrational behavior and perceptions that interfere with progress. But if an individual approach works better than one that is shared, then take time to reevaluate your strategy and take the best path available.
Favorability of working magick: very bad – Although your workings may need shoring up today, should issues of social justice arise, especially on behalf of others, make every effort to work magicks of empowerment and justice. Jasper is good to balance energy and to offer protection and include borage blossoms on the altar to increase courage.
Aspects:
- Moon square Pallas
- Moon opposite The North Node/conjunct South Node
- Moon opposite The Ascendant
Magickal Correspondences
- Element – Air
- Color – Blue
- Crystal – sapphire, jasper, emerald

- Herbs – basil, agrimony, mints, dandelion, borage, bugloss, wood betony, hyssop, henbane, poplar, oak, plum, fig, meadowsweet
Friday, 30 April 2021
- Numerology – 3
- Rune – Mannaz
- Geomancy – Fortuna Major
- Moon – Sagittarius until Capricorn at 9:16 AM PDT; VOC – 6:26 AM PDT to 9:15 AM PDT
- Human Design Channels – Determination
- Magickal Focus – Venus, compassion, love, harmony, attracting a partner, partnership issues, female sexuality, fertility, healing, friendship
Be mindful of who you are in relation to others today and know that alignment will bring you great reward. In addition, a focus on details will leave you in a better place than if you let things go and possibly miss something important.
As the Moon shifts into Capricorn, you prefer a more structured or risk-averse experience. Should conflict arise, however, remain as compassionate as possible to avoid any argument with others. Walk it off or find another activity that channels your aggression.
In fact, with the Sun, Moon, and Uranus at the same Gate and Line, The Hermit, from today’s Human Design chart, taking time on your own today may be your best option especially if you’re still accepting the new path you’re on. Use this time to increase your awareness and appreciate how the past influences the present.
Favorability of working magick: very bad – work magicks involving partnership issues including attracting a partner, healing wounds, and strengthening love and compassion. Include green or rose/pink candles on the altar and carve Mannaz into each one to bring integration to the relationship.
Aspects
- Moon opposite Mars
- Moon sextile Jupiter
Magickal Correspondences
- Element – Water
- Color – Green, rose
- Crystal – Turquoise, lapis lazuli, beryl, rose quartz, coral

Saturday, 1 May 2021
- Numerology -1
- Rune – Raidho
- Geomancy – Acquisitio
- Moon – Capricorn
- Human Design Channels – Concentration
- Magickal Focus – Saturn, restriction, bindings, summoning, harvest, purification, protection.
Allow new perceptions to influence your relationships with others today, offering support and assistance wherever you can. Avoid excessive behavior, however, that can strain interactions and interfere with progress.
Your past life experience gives you a level of understanding that others may not have and given your unique perspective, you’re often called upon to offer compassion and healing to those in need. Reflect on the circumstances in question and then offer the best strategy possible.
Remain focused and watch for patterns that signal manipulation by outside influences. Avoid rationalizing mistakes and being easily led by propaganda that causes harm to both self and others. Realize that a go-it-alone attitude may not serve you overall, so while individuality and authenticity are often best, a shared path may bring more joy in the long run.
Favorability of working magick: excellent – magicks involving protection and purification can be worked today with success likely. Workings that involve binding or cursing can also be used but know that doing so may interfere with the free will of the individual in question as well as interfere with the path they freely chose. Be sure of your choice in that regard.
