The Forecast for Wednesday, 30 June 2021
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 bad – given the very bad favorability for working magick today, go within and reflect on today’s rune divination. Additionally, if divination interests you, research the meaning of each of today’s runes and practice drawing the runes, thinking about the meaning while drawing each one. How a witch carries herself or himself matters and expressing Spirit into everything we do provides a perfect foundation from which everything else flows. The runes as a divination tool are a language of Spirit and each one reminds us of where our true wealth lies: in our fundamental unity with all. Embodying the message of the runes fosters awareness of the collective aspect of Self and a witch would do well to study each one.

Rune Divination ~ Ansuz, Sowilo, and Isa comprise today’s rune divination where we align in Spirit and express that divine light in our perceptions and our interactions with others. Focused intention is the result of Isa where Spirit replaces ego and a higher belief structure takes over our perceptions and behavior. From there, Ansuz, Odin’s rune, influences our expression of eloquence and spirituality, while Sowilo, an as above so below rune, infuses the light of Spirit into all aspects of our physical form.

Significant Aspects or patterns that may inspire or inform magickal workings.
T-Square
- Saturn R/Uranus/Mars – indicates a challenge over balancing both self-assertion and self-discipline
Stellium
- Venus/Mars/Ascendant (Leo) – you present a strong image with this aspect pattern and how others perceive you is important as is self-assertion
Additional Aspects (Goddess planets, Lilith, Nodes, and Ascendant aspects follow in their own categories)
- Mercury (11th/Gemini) semisquare Venus (12th/Leo) – a new endeavor may be blocked in some way and patience will be required
- Mars (1st/Leo) opposite Saturn (7th/Aquarius R) – suggests balancing self-restriction with self-assertion
- Mars (1st/Leo) trine Chiron (9th/Aries) – describes the ability to speak on behalf of others to work through challenges.
- 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
Goddess-oriented Planetary Interactions
- Mars (1st/Leo) trine Juno (5th/Sagittarius R) – suggests that independence and adventure are desired in a partner but that reflection is also needed so that you see that person for who they really are
- Saturn (7th/Aquarius R) semisquare Pallas (9th/Pisces) – suggests that problem-solving may be impacted within relationships or with a partner; further reassessment is needed.
- Neptune (9th/Pisces R) opposite Vesta (3rd/Virgo) – suggests that focus may be challenging and you may feel the need to escape from everyday issues
- Pluto (6th/Capricorn R) semisquare Juno (5th/Sagittarius R) – indicates a power struggle with a close partner may be possible with inner reflection required
- Pluto (6th/Capricorn R) square Eris (10th/Aries) – describing the reevaluation of a possible obsessive focus on the path to self-mastery (Seltzer)
- 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. A sesquisquare with Neptune indicates creativity may be less right now, while a semisquare with Vesta suggests your well-being and health could be compromised through a lack of healthy habits.
Black Moon Lilith ~ 10th House/Taurus — You may resist change while in Taurus and it may be difficult to move out of your comfort zone. In the 10th House of career, standing, and authority, interactions may be challenging with Lilith’s darker side potentially manipulating others to achieve power and control. A trine with Pluto R helps you transform your inner strength to heal old wounds that impact your interactions with others (also involving a semisquare with 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 indicates that profound growth from a difficult situation or illness in your life may benefit others
- Juno R opposite The North Node/conjunct The South Node reinforces the need to hear the viewpoints of partners and be sensitive to their needs and feelings
- 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 ~ Waning, Disseminating, 3rd Qtr on 1 July 2021 at 2:11 PM PDT at 10°Ar14
Mansion of the Moon – 28th – Arrexhe – 17°Pis8′; Pisces; increases harvest, protects travelers on a dangerous journey, increases joy between married couples, reinforces prisons and loss of possessions
Retrograde ~ Jupiter – inner reflection is warranted and in Pisces, it centers on discovering inner truth; Neptune – discernment is a factor in this retrograde where you look within to determine truth from fiction and arrive at a more realistic understanding of the truths that surround you; 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: Chiron (15 days), Pallas (13 days)
Polarity – polarities are in equal balance today
Elemental Influence ~ The Fire (creativity, initiation, motivation) and Water (compassion, emotions, empathy) elements are having the greatest impact today.
Ray Influences – significant changes are in bold
- 1st (will/power) – strong impact – creativity or inspiration are strong today as is self-assertion
- 2nd (love/wisdom) – medium impact (increase) – extending unconditional love, compassion, and understanding may be easier today
- 3rd (active intelligence) – strong impact – adaptability to new ideas and understanding is stronger today
- 4th (harmony through conflict) – low impact – signals that cooperative efforts and understanding cause and effect may be very challenging today
- 5th (concrete knowledge and science) –medium impact (decrease) – suggests that scientific knowledge is having an average 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 increased effect, perception/ideology theoretically may be more difficult to manage but with the 2nd Ray having a stronger impact on wisdom, gullibility may be kept in check.
- 7th (ceremonial order/magick)- medium/strong impact – organization and general order are easily managed today
