The Forecast for Tuesday, 22 June 2021
Tuesday is governed by Mars. Below are its corresponding energies as well as the current transit chart for the witch’s perusal. et incipit magia
Magickal focus ~ Mars governs, passion, manifestation, creativity, self-assertion, reducing conflict
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 – Incorporate the rune Tiwaz from today’s rune divination into a working concerning leadership and self-assertion. For example, a witch can use the manifesting influence from today’s Master Number 22 to invoke the spiritual warrior within to express a new vision on behalf of the collective. Focus your intention on healing conflict and fostering a new path. Cast your circle or define your sacred space. Use amethyst and bloodstone on the altar for courage and place a lodestone in the center of the altar/workspace for balance and a new direction. This stone very magnetic and should probably be kept away from sensitive electronic devices, just in case. Hold your hands over the lodestone and say something like the following: I invoke justice (Invoco iustitia; I invoke a new path (Quaeso, viam novi) or Together on a new path (In unum novum semita). It doesn’t really matter what your words are, whether they rhyme or whether they’re in Latin. All that matters is that you focus your intention on a particular outcome and then build the energy within the working to then cast or send it to the collective consciousness. What I like about including a lodestone, or several as a group, in a working is that it balances my energy in a way that I can’t achieve on my own and I think the spell is more effective from a more balanced state.

Rune Divination ~ Mannaz, Tiwaz, and Wunjo comprise today’s rune divination where the spiritual warrior within rises up to set the example for harmony with others. Mannaz provides the energy for integration with others with Wunjo forward and reversed comprising Mannaz. Dagaz appears in the center of Mannaz reducing further to Gebo within Dagaz so you can see the foundational energies in this complex rune really do define it as the individual within society. But in this case, the emphasis is on expressing harmony and manifesting joy. Tiwaz, as the spiritual warrior, sacrifices on behalf of others, establishes the right path, and sets the example for others to follow.
Lunar position – Scorpio until Sagittarius at 5:56 AM PDT; Mercury Retrograde ends – With the Moon in Sagittarius and Mercury Retrograde ending today, it’s time to expand your horizons. If the Sagittarius effect on your emotions is too strong, however, avoid judgment and/or taking the bait. With Jupiter in Retrograde, inner expansion is favored, but that said, in square with the Moon, grandiosity toward others is not. Refer to the current Esoteric Influences for more information regarding today’s influences.
Significant Aspects or patterns that may inspire or inform magickal workings.

- Venus (12th/Cancer) opposite Pluto (6th/Capricorn R) – indicates that drama or power struggles could occur within relationships today
- Saturn (7th/Aquarius R) square Uranus (10th/Taurus) – suggests insecurity surrounding ability, authority, and compromise.
- Saturn (7th/Aquarius R) sextile Chiron (9th/Aries) – you embrace past emotional difficulties with resolve and awareness, providing assistance to others who are experiencing the same

- Chiron (9th/Aries) trine Juno (5th/Sagittarius R) – suggests supportive and compassionate feelings for others are expressed easily
The Ascendant – Leo – a masculine, Fixed sign that suggests that behavior is purposeful, self-disciplined, and reliable. Although typically generous and sincere, Leo individuals can be arrogant and prideful, and need to learn to balance power with compassion.
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 trine with Pluto transforms your inner strength to heal old wounds that impact your interactions with others (also involving a semisquare Chiron). All in all, a new strategy may be required going forward (sextile Pallas).
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.
- 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
- Eris semisquare The North Node/sesquisquare The South Node reinforces the need for self-control while asserting oneself. In Aries, Eris balances the feminine with the masculine, the goddess as spiritual warrior, and speaking truth to power may need some reevaluation.
Lunar Phase ~ Waxing, Gibbous, Full on 24 June 2021 at 11:40 AM PDT at 03°Cap27
Mansion of the Moon – 19th – Exaula – 21°Sco25′; tail of Scorpio; fosters attacking cities and towns, forces people to leave their homes, destroys sailors and prisoners
Retrograde ~ Jupiter – inner reflection is warranted and in Pisces, it centers on discovering inner truth; Juno – suggests a look inward in how you select, commit to, and interact with partners in your life; Saturn – reassess boundaries and how your structure your life; Pluto – inner transformation is favored; Upcoming retrogrades to be aware of: Neptune (3 days), Chiron (23 days), Pallas (21 days)
Polarity – the masculine (projective) polarity is strongest today so we should experience an increase in motivation and expressions of will.
Elemental Influence ~ The Water (emotions, compassion, empathy, flexibility) and Fire (creativity, initiation, motivation) elements are having the greatest impact today.
Ray Influences – significant changes are in bold
- 1st (will/power) –strong impact (increase) – an high level of creativity or inspiration is present today
- 2nd (love/wisdom) – low to medium impact (decrease) – extending unconditional love, compassion, and understanding may be challenging today
- 3rd (active intelligence) – medium/strong impact – adaptability to new ideas and understanding is stronger today
- 4th (harmony through conflict) – low/medium impact – signals that cooperative efforts and understanding cause and effect may be somewhat challenging today
- 5th (concrete knowledge and science) – medium/strong impact (increase) – suggests that scientific knowledge is having an increased effect on our mindset and decisions
- 6th (devotion/idealism) – low/medium impact (increase) – The 6th Ray of devotion and idealism is a tricky influence in that if the 2nd Ray is less, we typically see an increase in gullibility and a single-minded approach. In other words, too much ideology or too much devotion affects our ability to view our experiences or beliefs in a realistic manner. With the 6th Ray’s medium effect, perception/ideology theoretically may be easier to manage but with the 2nd Ray having less of an impact on wisdom, keeping gullibility in check may be difficult.
- 7th (ceremonial order/magick)- strong impact– organization and general order are easily managed today
