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


Magickal focus ~ The Moon governs; feminine magicks, healing, intuition, cycles, reincarnation, astral travel, balance, change

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 – The harvest sabbat of Mabon begins with Monday’s Full Moon in Pisces with the Moon transiting into Aries a few hours later. That should make for an interesting evening, to say the least. Your intentions established on the New Moon may reach their fulfillment tonight in full clarity and resolve. A more in-depth recommendation can be found here.

Magickal Correspondences

  • Element – Water
  • Color – Silver, white
  • Crystal – Pearl, moonstone, selenite, beryl, marcasite
  • Resin – White sandalwood, camphor, aloe, myrrh
  • Herbs – almond, mugwort, moonwort, yellow ranunculus, palm, lily, willow, violet, poppy, fennel, iris

Numerology~ 9/20/2021

  • Life Path – 7 – this describes a solitary life path or destiny involving study, spiritual pursuits, and developing a specialty
  • Day – 2 – balance, change, decisions, reciprocity, compassion, harmony
  • Challenges – arrogance versus integrity in your interactions with others, managing social contact, and balancing responsibility with personal time

Rune Divination ~ Fehu, Ehwaz, Sowilo comprise today’s rune divination where we flow with others in full clarity of the fundamental truth of who we are to each other. Fehu provides the transactional nature of our interactions while Sowilo, as the rune of the will and higher self awareness, brings clarity to each moment. Ehwaz, depicting our intuitive bond with others, is comprised of Laguz forward and reversed with the center reflecting Kenaz, the torch or light of Spirit, casting its light downward into our awareness. This powerful rune offers the truth that we exist in the physical realm as not only the self but also the other side of self in a unified dance of sorts. If we take a step back, we can watch the exchange play out for the message it offers instead of seeing the other person as separate from us and responding from ego.

Lunar position – Pisces until Aries at 8:12 PM PDT; Full Moon at 4:54 PM PDT; Mabon begins – If triggered by a confusing situation, step back to gain a broader perspective. Go with the flow and speak your truth, but in a calm and collected manner. Know that compassion will take you further than will taking the bait. 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

  • Mercury/Pluto R/ Eris R – although you communicate in a way that is both powerful and transformative, sometimes you can come across as arrogant and judgmental. Instead, express yourself in a calm, reasoned manner that respects the input of others.

Yod

  • Venus/Chiron R/Ceres – avoid a passive aggressive approach to nurturing others today and learn to accept support from others.

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

  • Sun (12th/Virgo) conjunct Vulcan (12th/Virgo) Orb 02°S04′ – indicates the need to move ahead with your own life in a manner that reflects a strong spiritual perspective and approach
  • Sun (12th/Virgo) trine Pluto (4th/Capricorn R) Orb 03°S29′ – your leadership skills are strong and you have a positive effect on others
  • Mercury (1st/Libra) trine Jupiter (5th/Aquarius R) Orb 00°A13′ – your ideas have a positive impact on others
  • Mercury (1st/Libra) square Pluto (4th/Capricorn R) Orb 01°A01′ – you may struggle with remaining calm and balanced today and you may become obsessive in your thinking and self-expression.
  • Mercury (1st/Libra) conjunct Spica at 24°08′ indicates the potential for brilliance
  • Venus (2nd/Scorpio) quincunx Chiron (7th/Aries R) Orb 00°A03′ – surrounding your expectations of others in particular today, you may want to avoid expressions of martyrdom that impact support from others
  • Saturn (4th/Aquarius R) semisquare Neptune (6th/Pisces R) Orb 00°A36′ – suggests manifesting a creative approach to daily tasks or a health-oriented situation

Goddess-oriented Planetary Interactions

  • Mercury (1st/Libra) opposite Eris (7th/Aries R) Orb 01°A08′ – your intellectual expression seems to be at odds with self-assertion today which may result in some difficulty with understanding the bigger picture
  • Venus (2nd/Scorpio) quincunx Ceres (9th/Gemini) Orb 00°S04′ – reflect on how you express and receive support from others and whether that experience is balanced and reciprocal in nature
  • Uranus (8th/Taurus R) quincunx Juno (3rd/Sagittarius) Orb 00°A17′ – suggests that discernment is required particularly regarding new partners today with reassessment likely required
  • Pluto (4th/Capricorn R) square Eris (7th/Aries R) Orb 00°A06′ – describing potential hidden agendas by others, or inner woundings that may impact self-mastery
  • Chiron (7th/Aries R) sextile Ceres (9th/Gemini) Orb 00°A08′ – your own experiences surrounding childhood woundings provide support for others as they process their own issues
  • Pallas (6th/Pisces R) square Juno (3rd/Sagittarius) Orb 01°A58′ – indicates the need to see the overall picture with respect to close partners today

The Ascendant – Libra – a masculine, cardinal sign that suggests an individual who is concerned about others, initiates or takes action, and prefers harmony over conflict. At times, Libra individuals can rely too much on the reactions from others and can be indecisive, weighing out each side of a situation to the point of making no decision at all. A trine with Saturn suggests you’re motivated to succeed while the same with Lilith indicates instinct or intuition may be valuable. And lastly, a trine with Ceres recommends that you be aware of how you both extend and accept support from others and the impact that has on interpersonal relationships.

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, respect your intuition and perception, while balancing discernment with 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.

  • Saturn trine Lilith (Orb 00°A06′)
  • Ceres conjunct Lilith(Orb 03°S57′)
  • Lilith conjunct The North Node/opposite The South Node (Orb 01°S40′)

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. Advocacy on behalf of others may be in your future.

  • Mars trine The North Node (Orb 01°A18′)
  • Lilith conjunct The North Node/opposite The South Node (Orb 02°S09′)

Lunar Phase ~ Mother phase; Full on 20 Sep 2021 at 4:55 PM PDT at 28°Pi13

Mansion of the Moon – 28th ~ Arrexhe (The Belly of the Fish) – 17°Pi8′; 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, centering 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 Pre Shadow (retrograde in 7 days – 25°Lib28); Ceres (18 days – 12°Gem08′). Planets leaving retrograde: Jupiter (27 days – 22°Aq19); Saturn (20 days – 06°Aq52); Pluto (16 days – 24°Cp18)

Polarity – The Feminine (receptive, passive) polarity or influence is strongest today

Elemental Influence ~ Elemental Water (emotions, compassion, empathy) is having the strongest impact today, with Air (intellect, reason, justice, interaction) next in strength. Earth (material concerns, physical presence) follows, with Fire (will, creativity, motivation) having no impact at the time the chart was cast.

Ray Influences – Overall, the 7th Ray’s impact on balancing higher self with ego suggests that pride and a superficial or narrow-minded approach may resonate more than will spirit awareness as evidenced by the impact of the lesser impact of the 1st, 4th, and 5th Rays.

Today’s effect of the 1st Ray on will expression continues to impact how we assert ourselves to others suggesting that creativity, inspiration, and motivation are less, reinforced by the low impact of the 4th Ray suggesting that cooperative efforts may still be challenging to achieve. The decreased effect of the 5th Ray influence on scientific knowledge and what we fundamentally know to be true suggests that scientific knowledge may have less of an impact on the mindset and decisions of many who are still entrenched in the ego’s lower vibratory energy.

However, the 3rd Ray of active intelligence also remains at the same strength as last week with both clarity and adaptability to new ideas still very strong. Lastly, looking at the balance between the 2nd (love/wisdom) and 6th (devotion/idealism) Rays, the 2nd Ray’s strong effect on the expression wisdom and love places it in balance with ideology expressed by the 6th Ray, signaling that the inner struggle between wisdom and ideology will likely continue today.

  • 1st (will/power) – low impact – creativity and inspiration are having a very low influence as are motivation and self-assertion
  • 2nd (love/wisdom) – strong impact (increasing) – the impact on extending unconditional love, compassion, and understanding remains at the same level
  • 3rd (active intelligence) – very strong impact – adaptability to new ideas as well as overall understanding remains very strong 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) – low impact (decreasing) – suggests that the impact of scientific knowledge is having a decreased impact on our mindset and decisions with a narrow minded or prideful viewpoint likely
  • 6th (devotion/idealism) – strong impact (increasing) – 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 and 6th Rays
  • 7th (ceremonial order/magick) – low/medium impact – balancing the lower ego expression with higher self awareness may be difficult today with pride and superficial judgment possible
