Numerology ~ 4/26/2021

• Life Path – 8 – describes a life path or destiny that involves mastery, leadership, power, and financial success
• Day – 8 – harmony, master, leadership, achievement
• Challenges – responsibility versus play and keeping the ego in check

Rune Divination ~ Hagalaz, Algiz, Eihwaz – today’s rune divination surrounds Spirit transformation/transmutation. Algiz draws down our perception from Spirit while Eihwaz provides the route or bridge between non-physical and physical form for that energy to travel. Hagalaz, the Norn rune of the past and considered the witch rune, uses that invoked Spirit to transform and transmute our perceptions into that which heals and protects. Something to consider under tonight’s Full Pink Moon.

Lunar position –  Full; Libra until Scorpio at 9:19 AM PDT; VOC from 5:39 AM PDT to 9:18 AM PDT – 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. Refer to the current Esoteric Influences for more information regarding today’s influences.

Sign strength – Taurus and Aquarius provide the strongest sign influence today with Taurus influencing stability, values, routine, stubbornness, and self-indulgence; and Aquarius providing a group consciousness and humanitarian approach that may also rebel against the status quo.

Significant Aspects or patterns that may inspire or inform magickal workings. The Ascendant, North/South Nodes, as well as Lilith aspects are in their own categories below:

Stelliums (power interactions)

• Mercury/Venus/Uranus – describes an innovative approach to interactions with others
• Vulcan/Eris/Ceres – signals a breakthrough in how you balance the masculine/feminine warrior energy within as it relates to nurturing others. In other words, the application of inner strength in nurturing self and others.

Additional Aspects

• Venus (12th/Taurus) square Saturn (10th/Aquarius) – signals a hesitancy toward self-assertion
• Venus (12th/9°Taurus) conjunct Uranus (12th/10°Taurus) – describes a strong need for individuality within relationships
• Venus (12th/Taurus) trine Vesta (4th/Virgo) – indicates that hearth and home provide a comfortable space for you to nurture and develop relationships with others
• Venus (11th/Taurus) sesquisquare Juno (7th/Sagittarius) – indicates the need for balancing the nurturing of self and others
• Saturn (10th/Aquarius) square Uranus (12th/Taurus) suggests insecurity surrounding ability, authority, and compromise.

• Neptune (11th/Pisces) square Juno (7th/Sagittarius) – describes the need to see others realistically, especially when providing assistance or selecting a partner
• Pluto (9th/Capricorn) square Ceres (12th/Aries) – indicates nurturing that’s conditional in nature.

The Ascendant – Gemini – a Mutable sign that suggests movement, activity, versatility, interaction-oriented, chatty, and sometimes superficial or scattered.

• A trine with Saturn signals the energy to make your mark in a variety of careers
• A square with Vesta indicates the importance of including ritual and a sacred focus within your life
• A semisquare with Ceres cautions that conflict may arise over how nurturing occurs within close relationships
• A semisquare with Eris signals the potential to speak truth to power (Seltzer)

Black Moon Lilith ~ 12th House/Taurus — You may resist change while in Taurus and it may be difficult to move out of your comfort zone. In the 12th House of endings, things that are hidden (fears, enemies), the collective unconscious, karma, and service to others, Lilith’s darker side may impact relationships with others, with fear at the heart of a more solitary existence.

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 and respectful manner.

• A trine between the North Node and Saturn (sextile the South Node) suggests an enthusiastic attitude that can direct you into achievement in many areas
• Chiron trine the South Node indicates that profound growth from a difficult situation or illness in your life may benefit others
• Pallas square the N Node/S Node suggests a new strategy may be beneficial when understanding the viewpoints of others

Lunar Phase ~ Mother phase; Full on 26 Apr 2021 at 8:32 PM at 07°Sc06′

Mansion of the Moon – 17th – Alichil – 25°Lib42′; crown of Scorpio; reverses destitution, strengthens love and buildings and assists sailors

Retrograde ~ Juno – suggests a look inward in how you select, commit to, and interact with partners in your life

---

Polarity – Masculine (10), Feminine (13) – feminine or receptive polarity is strongest suggesting compassion and empathy today

Elemental Influence ~ The Air and Earth elements are having the strongest impact today suggesting intellect, reason, and rationality along with material concerns are in focus.

Energetic Sign Quality/Mode ~ Fixed sign qualities are strongest suggesting stability and routine are favored today.

---

Rays ~ The 4th Ray of harmony through conflict continues its strong impact today and with the 2nd, 3rd, and 5th Rays (love/wisdom, active intelligence, and concrete knowledge/science) suggesting that we’re drawing information from a higher source with reasoned intelligence informing our interactions with others.

The 1st and 7th Rays are all having a lesser effect suggesting that manifesting what we want today may not depend upon self-assertion.

Finally, the 6th Ray of devotion and idealism is increasing somewhat today signaling the hold on ideology is increasing. That said, the stronger 2nd Ray effect should help keep any extreme 6th Ray expression in check.
