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

Magickal focus ~ Mercury governs, 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 ~ very good – issues surrounding communication with others can be worked but so can rituals involving inner balance or confronting the inner dialogue we each have with ourselves. Any of the crystals mentioned below are useful on the altar or workspace with fluorite, citrine, and agate (Botswana is a favorite) especially nice. The rune divination today sets a Higher Self tone so use a meditative or trance state to work your influence if you like.

Magickal Correspondences

Numerology ~ 5/19/2021

  • Life Path – 11/2 – describes a life path or destiny involving spirituality and awakening (11); or if read as a 2, this involves a life path that involves balance, compassion, expressions of duality
  • Day – 1 – new beginnings, unity, wholeness, leadership, revolution
  • Challenges – balancing work and responsibility with play, and taking a self-determined path

Rune Divination ~ Sowilo, Algiz, and Laguz comprise today’s rune divination where Higher Consciousness flows through our collective awareness. Both Sowilo and Algiz draw down Spirit into our individual and collective experience. Laguz purifies and cleanses our awareness and increases harmony. Together Sowilo and Algiz provide the catalytic effect or impetus with Laguz softening the harmonic impact. Laguz can also be visualized both as a hook that draws back energetic focus to the individual as well as a release from imbalanced energetic connections. So, for today, let go and allow Spirit to walk the earth.

Lunar position –  Leo until Virgo at 2:00 PM PDT; VOC from 12:12 PM PDT to 1:59 PM PDT – As the Moon travels into Virgo in mid-afternoon, you may experience some tension today and it may be best to avoid a hypercritical or extreme response. Strong emotions may be surfacing and you may need some self-nurturing to regain your balance. Refer to the current Esoteric Influences for more information regarding today’s influences.

Sign strength – Cancer, and Pisces provide the strongest sign influence today influencing how we express and receive nurturing (Cancer). Compassion and intuition factors in with the addition of Pisces.

Significant Aspects or patterns that may inspire or inform magickal workings.

Stelliums (power interactions)

  • Vulcan/Venus/North Node – describes the potential for new relationships to form

Additional Aspects (Goddess planets, Lilith, Nodes, and Ascendant aspects follow in their own categories)

  • Sun (12th/Taurus) square Jupiter (9th/Pisces) – suggests self-confidence dependent upon ego balance
  • Sun (12th/Taurus) trine Pluto (8th/Capricorn R) – describes strong leadership skills that have proper timing
  • Mercury (12th/Gemini) square Neptune (10th/Pisces) – cautions the importance of discernment
  • Venus (12th/Gemini) sextile Chiron (10th/Aries) – suggests someone close to you may need emotional support today
  • Mars (1st/Cancer) sesquisquare Jupiter (9th/Pisces) – counsels the need to avoid conflict with others
  • Saturn (8th/Aquarius) square Uranus (11th/Taurus) – suggests insecurity surrounding ability, authority, and compromise.
  • Saturn (8th/Aquarius) sextile Chiron (10th/Aries) – describes the strength to heal and to share that experience with others

Goddess-oriented Planetary Interactions

  • Mercury (12th/Gemini) square Pallas (10th/Pisces) – describes the need for a different strategy when interacting with others
  • Mercury (12th/Gemini) opposite Juno (6th/Sagittarius R) – stresses the need to express truth with compassion and love
  • Venus (12th/Gemini) square Vesta (4th/Virgo) – suggests relationships require some work on your part and take a sacred focus
  • Uranus (11th/Taurus) trine Vesta (4th/Virgo) – suggests balancing a spiritual concern for the greater good and a motivation to help others with taking care of oneself as well
  • Neptune (10th/Pisces) conjunct Pallas (10th/Pisces) – cautions a present moment focus in lieu of fantasy
  • Neptune (10th/Pisces) square Juno (6th/Sagittarius R) – describes the need to see others realistically, especially when providing assistance or selecting a partner
  • Pluto (8th/Capricorn R) square Eris (12th/Aries) – describing the reevaluation of a possible obsessive focus on the path to self-mastery (Seltzer)
  • Vesta (4th/Virgo) sesquisquare Eris (12th/Aries) – counsels conveying expectations of others in a direct manner that respects boundaries and values
  • Pallas (10th/Pisces) square Juno (6th/Sagittarius R) – indicates a new strategy is needed regarding partnership interactions
  • Juno (6th/Sagittarius R) trine Eris (11th/Aries) – describes the strong need for a shared belief or direction with a partner

The Ascendant – Cancer – a feminine, Cardinal sign that suggests that home is a place of safety and nurturing and that you approach life from a fairly risk-averse perspective. Compassion is favored as is a sense of vulnerability and sensitivity. Emotions may be in flux or moodiness may be experienced.

  • Sextile Ceres, you experience a focus on nurturing self and others

Black Moon Lilith ~ 11th House/Taurus — You may resist change while in Taurus and it may be difficult to move out of your comfort zone. In the 11th House of relationships, interactions may be challenging with Lilith’s darker side impacting expectations of others. A conjunct with Venus counsels you to trust your instincts, while a sextile with Neptune counsels stepping outside your own focus and aligning with nature to balance your fear. A sextile with Chiron reinforces the need for sensitivity toward others, particularly with respect to nurturing family (Vesta square Lilith). Additionally, a conjunct between our dark Goddess and The Sun offers a bright spot to Lilith’s day supporting optimism and enthusiasm.

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.

  • Venus conjunct The North Node/opposite the South Node suggests that your destiny involves a focus on harmony within relationships but not at the expense of taking action when necessary
  • 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
  • Uranus quincunx The South Node alerts you to the need to flow with unexpected events
  • Pluto sesquisquare The North Node/semisquare The South Node seems to suggest transformation surrounding both how you see past as well as the future
  • Chiron trine the South Node/sextile The North Node indicates that profound growth from a difficult situation or illness in your life may benefit others

Lunar Phase ~ Crescent, waxing; 1st Qtr on 19 May 2021 at 12:13 PM PDT at 29°Leo01′

Mansion of the Moon – 12th – Alsarfah – 21°Leo25′; tail of Leo; increases harvest, obstructs sailors, promotes care for employees and captives

Retrograde ~ Juno – suggests a look inward in how you select, commit to, and interact with partners in your life; Pluto – inner transformation is favored. Upcoming retrogrades to be aware of: Saturn (in 4 days), Mercury (10 days), Jupiter (32 days), and Neptune (37 days).

Polarity – Masculine (8), Feminine (12) – the feminine or receptive polarity continues to be strongest today

Elemental Influence ~ The Water element provides the strongest impact today suggesting that concerns of a more emotional nature are in focus. Earth (material concerns) and Air (intellect, communication, justice) are in balance with each other while Fire (will, creativity) is providing the least impact.

Energetic Sign Quality/Mode ~ Fixed sign qualities are strongest suggesting stability or routine are favored. Although Cardinal (motivating) and Mutable (flexible) sign qualities are less of an influence, they’re in balance with each other so all three sign qualities are having an effect today.

Rays ~ Although we’re experiencing increases in the 1st and 5th Rays from last week, the 2nd Ray of unconditional love and wisdom continues to exceed all other Rays in its influence today as it heals and aligns our perceptions in harmony with others. Its counterpart, the 6th Ray of devotion and idealism, remains stable and is still thankfully having a lesser impact on conspiracy thinking. When the 6th Ray is strong, gullibility or single-minded devotion controls individual and collective perception. The insurrection on January 6, 2021 is an example of 6th Ray influence run amok.

The 3rd Ray of active intelligence along with the 4th Ray of harmony through conflict, have remained stable and suggest that we are able, influenced by expressions of love and wisdom from the 2nd Ray, to come to an agreement with others.

The 5th Ray of concrete knowledge and science has increased today suggesting that new information may be revealed especially surrounding changes in CDC guidelines.

Finally, the 1st Ray (will/power) is having more of an impact on our self-assertion while the 7th Ray (ceremonial order/magick) seems to draw from the other rays, particularly the 2nd Ray of love and wisdom, in how we manifest our way forward.
