Spread the love

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

Magickal focus ~ Venus governs, compassion, love, harmony, attracting a partner, partnership issues, female sexuality, fertility, healing, friendship

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 ~ excellent – magicks worked today can center around healing issues with a partner. Create a charm bag (aka mojo or gris gris) to carry with you to foster love and healing. Add a small piece of rose quartz for love as well as some citrine (a Mercury influence) to elevate discourse. Include some apple seeds and rose petals to promote love, crushed marshmallow leaf to smooth over rough spots, and add a few drops of vanilla essential oil to foster love and lust (or you can use Neroli or Rose Geranium…or Rose EO if you happen to have some). Bless and consecrate it for your intended purpose and then carry it with you while with your love partner.

Magickal Correspondences

Numerology ~ 7/2/2021

  • Life Path – 5 – this describes a life path or destiny involving adaptation to change
  • Day – 1 – wholeness, unity, leadership, revolution, new beginnings
  • Challenges – sociability with others, refraining from overindulgence, and remaining sensitive to the feelings and needs of others.

Rune Divination ~ Ansuz, Gebo, Nauthiz comprise today’s rune divination where Gebo sits in balanced energy exchange with spiritual eloquence (Ansuz) and our inner most desires (Nauthiz). It provides the answer to a difficult problem involving interactions with others that perhaps aren’t respectful or impact boundaries. Nauthiz calls out the behavior that’s problematic and invokes the will to reassess and restructure how we express our expectations. Ansuz provides the Higher Self awareness to see the situation clearly and without allowing the ego to interfere. Gebo ties both together as the gift we give others to meet them halfway, with respect, and without an agenda.

Lunar position – Aries – Clarity is strong and you express ideas easily. That said, if frustration arises, be certain to react with compassion and tolerance. It may be that you or someone else is struggling with control issues so give yourself and others the space to work that out without judgment. Refer to the current Esoteric Influences for more information regarding today’s influences.

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

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

  • Sun (12th/Cancer) square Chiron (9th/Aries) – describes childhood wounding from interactions with authority that can provide great insight and healing for others
  • Mars (1st/Leo) opposite Saturn (7th/Aquarius R) – suggests balancing self-restriction with self-assertion
  • Mars (1st/Leo) square Uranus (10th/Taurus) – indicates that impulsivity may occur and self-discipline may be required
  • 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

  • Sun (12th/Cancer) quincunx Juno (5th/Sagittarius R) – indicates that nurturing others may be challenging with ego the source of that difficulty
  • 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 (2nd/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 (9th/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. An opposition with Saturn R tells you that relationships, especially those with close partners, are an important factor in your life, while a trine with Juno R reinforces the same along with the strong need for equality.

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 while a semisquare with Chiron forces those wounds to the surface to be viewed with compassion instead of distrust.

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, New Moon on 9 July 2021 at 6:17 PM PDT at 18°Cn01

Mansion of the Moon – 2nd – Albochan – 12°Ar51′; Belly of Aries; finds treasures and retains prisoners

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 (13 days), Pallas (11 days)

Polarity – The masculine polarity is strongest today suggesting motivation is high.

Elemental Influence ~ The Fire (creativity, initiation, motivation) element is 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) – low/medium impact – extending unconditional love, compassion, and understanding may be challenging 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– suggests that scientific knowledge is having an average effect on our mindset and decisions
  • 6th (devotion/idealism) – low impact – 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
