Magickal Correspondences

Numerology~ 9/3/2021

  • Life Path – 8 – this describes a life path or destiny involving leadership, achievement and material gain
  • Day – 3 – creativity, optimism, networking, ambition, mind/body/spirit balance
  • Challenges – managing arrogance with respect for the boundaries of others, overreaction and respect for the feelings of others, and remaining motivated

Rune Divination ~ Fehu, Ehwaz, and Perthro comprise today’s rune divination where fate plays a part in our relationships with others. Fehu’s transactional nature impacts how we flow in harmony with others (Ehwaz). Will we control our own perceptions and have respect for others or will the ego take command and make the situation adversarial somehow? Perthro represents fate or the unknown and the effect of the Norns on the fate of men. And is it that specific and is Perthro talking about controlling toxic male energy? Or is its impact more general than that?

Lunar position – Cancer until Leo at 8:59 AM PDT – With The Moon shifting into Leo in the morning, your influence over others is positive and optimistic. Now that COVID restrictions are increasing again, and precautions are necessary, your desire to have fun may center on immediate family. Cook the evening meal together, following that with a favorite movie or some other activity with those you love. Refer to the current Esoteric Influences for more information regarding today’s influences.

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

  • Pluto R/Eris R/The Sun – indicates moving past early trauma and stepping outside your comfort zone to assert yourself in a powerful manner
  • Ceres/The Sun/Pluto R – asks you to remain positive and nurturing to both self and others, particularly women and their allies, while dealing with disappointment
  • Venus/Vesta/Pluto R/Ceres – moderation is necessary in your relationships with others including avoiding asserting your own agenda or engaging in manipulation

Goddess-oriented Planetary Interactions

  • The Sun (12th/Virgo) square Juno (3rd/Sagittarius) Orb 00°S24′ – suggests parental authority may have influenced your current relationships with others. Balance is needed in self-expression.
  • Venus (2nd/Libra) conjunct Vesta (2nd/Libra) Orb 00°S11′ – suggests that home is a place of refuge for both you and family
  • Jupiter (5th/Aquarius R) sextile Eris (8th/Aries R) Orb 00°A44′ – involves expression of social justice; reevaluation may be needed to avoid fanaticism
  • Saturn (5th/Aquarius R) trine Ceres (9th/Gemini) Orb 00°S32′ – indicates early nurturing in childhood may have been lacking and may impact how you nurture both self and others
  • Neptune (6th/Pisces R) quincunx Vesta (2nd/Libra) Orb 00°A39′ – interactions with others could be challenging if your focus remains entirely on your own agenda
  • Neptune (6th/Pisces R) conjunct Pallas (6th/Pisces R) Orb 01°S35′ – imagination and visualization are strong today
  • Pluto (4th/Capricorn R) square Eris (8th/Aries R) Orb 00°S03′ – describing potential hidden agendas by others, or inner woundings that may impact self-mastery

  • Juno (3rd/Sagittarius) opposite Ceres (9th/Gemini) Orb 02°A23′ – describes tension over maintaining realistic expectations with partners

The Ascendant – Virgo – a feminine, mutable sign that suggests an individual who is somewhat risk-averse and hesitant to engage with others until fully aware and comfortable. This individual has high expectations of self and others and prefers order to chaos.

  • Pluto trine The Ascendant indicates self-assertion is strong

Black Moon Lilith ~ 9th House/Gemini — Interactions will flow smoothly while Lilith is in Gemini as long as you listen to the input from others. That said, in the 9th House of higher education, journeys, religion, and values, this may be challenging with Lilith’s darker side potentially vulnerable to the judgment of others. Ideally, you need to accept the wild child within, the one who works from instinct, all while engaging respectfully with others. This applies to work situations as well and the need to keep your competitive attitude under control. The way through such is to focus on compassion and nurturing relationships with both self and others.

  • Mercury trine Lilith (Orb 00°S48′)
  • Ceres conjunct Lilith(Orb 03°S17′)
  • Lilith conjunct The North Node/opposite The South Node (Orb 00°A36′)

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.

  • Mercury trine The North Node/sextile The South Node indicates the development in the field of communication (Orb 00°S11)
  • Saturn trine the North Node indicates the energy and enthusiasm for achievement in a variety of areas (Orb 02°A07′)
  • Ceres conjunct The North Node/opposite The South Node suggests that partnerships or shared experiences with women factor into your plans for the future (Orb 02°S54′)

Lunar Phase ~ Waning; New on 6 Sep 2021 at 5:52 PM PDT at 14°Vi38

Mansion of the Moon – 10th – Algebha – 25°Can42′; neck/forehead of Leo; fosters love and compassion, assists in defeating enemies, and strengthens structures

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; Saturn – reassess boundaries and how your structure your life; Pluto – inner transformation is favored; Pallas – reassess your overall understanding of situations and observe patterns as they unfold; Chiron – reflect on inner woundings, apply their message, and then move on; Eris – time to explore and reevaluate your expression of feminine power to maximize your potential; Uranus – stations retrograde today and indicates a focus on esoteric studies and original thought. Upcoming retrogrades to be aware of: Mercury (23 days – 25°Lib28); Ceres (35 days – 12°Gem08′).

Polarity – the feminine aspect of self is having the strongest impact today

Elemental Influence ~ Elemental Earth (material concerns, physical) is strongest today with Air (intellect, reason, justice, interaction) next in strength. Water (emotions, compassion, empathy) is having a lesser impact with Fire (will, creativity, motivation) having no impact.

Ray Influences – significant changes are in bold. One note today involves the 2nd, 5th, and 6th Rays suggesting that facts are still having less of an impact for some as the struggle between wisdom and ideology continues. Although the 2nd Ray is stronger than the 6th, both are vying for position. This likely pertains to the response over the Delta variant with our children potentially suffering the greatest harm. Or it could involve a more general preference of some for conspiracy theory over facts including SCOTUS allowing the most significant ban on abortion to go into effect today in Texas.

  • 1st (will/power) – low impact – creativity and inspiration is significantly less as is motivation and self-assertion
  • 2nd (love/wisdom) – strong impact– extending unconditional love, compassion, and understanding happens easily today with the expression of wisdom stronger than ideology
  • 3rd (active intelligence) – medium impact – adaptability to new ideas and understanding increases today
  • 4th (harmony through conflict) – low impact – signals that cooperative efforts and understanding cause and effect are still challenging today
  • 5th (concrete knowledge and science) – very low impact – suggests that knowledge, in other words, what we now know, is having significantly less of an impact on our mindset and decisions (see above note)
  • 6th (devotion/idealism) – medium/strong impact – The 6th Ray of devotion and idealism is typically kept in check by a strong 2nd Ray influence. Too much ideology or too much devotion affects our ability to view our experiences or beliefs in a realistic manner. Refer to the note above to show the relationship between the shared impact of the 2nd, 5th, and 6th Rays
  • 7th (ceremonial order/magick) – low/medium impact– organization and general order may still be challenging to achieve today
