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: neutral – Further recommendations and a look at the rest of the week are both available here.

Correspondences

Numerology

  • Life Path – 7 – this number describes a solitary life path or destiny involving study, spiritual pursuits, and developing a specialty
  • Day – 1 – new beginnings, wholeness, unity, leadership, independence, self-determination
  • Challenges – taking a self-determined path, and managing responsibilities

Rune Divination: Thurisaz, Algiz, and Nauthiz comprise today’s rune divination where we use the inner will to break through challenges from a higher self perspective. Algiz represents the bridge to higher consciousness that allows us to shift our awareness to a higher level of understanding. Nauthiz, the Norn rune signifying the future, invokes our inner spiritual will to manifest a new path or direction, binding us to a higher collective awareness. Nauthiz allows us to pursue new goals and challenges while Thurisaz, as Thor’s rune, defends us against opposition, whether from others or from the ego itself.

Lunar position: Aries; Maiden phase of the Full Moon – Express gratitude for the blessings others bring to your life. As with yesterday, observe synchronicities that may foster healing insight, particularly if reactions seem more based in past experiences that were either unhealthy or left your self-worth wounded in some manner. The weekly esoteric influences are available here.

Significant Aspects or patterns that may inspire or inform magickal workings

Grand Trine – Mercury/Saturn/Ceres R/Lilith – plans made in collaboration with others today should flow smoothly and will benefit greatly from your experience and insight

Yod – Pallas R/MC/Mercury – your point of view is appreciated by others and will likely impact either the overall understanding of a situation or collaborative effort, or will offer a new direction or strategy for success

Stellium – The Sun/Vulcan/Mars – suggests the inner strength is there to set your own course from Higher self awareness

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

  • Mercury (12th/Libra) opposite Chiron (6th/Aries R) – the past triggers the present today and someone may be unintentionally disrupting your experiences or plans; rise above the situation and move on without judgment
  • Venus (2nd/Sagittarius) quincunx Uranus (7th/Taurus R) – you may have difficulty expressing yourself today, especially should the unexpected occur; flexibility is recommended
  • Mars (12th/Libra) trine Jupiter (4th/Aquarius) – self-confidence and motivation are high and you assert yourself well with others
  • Mars (12th/Libra) square Pluto (3rd/Capricorn) – you’re advised to remain in control should intense feelings surface, and to avoid pushing your own views or agenda onto others
  • Saturn (3rd/Aquarius) opposite The Midheaven (Leo) – reassess how well you manage home and family matters in conjunction with your career focus with the need for a greater focus on home and family life

Goddess-oriented Planetary/Fixed Star Aspects

  • The Sun (12th/Libra) sesquisquare Ceres (8th/Gemini R) – your emotional need for support may be out of sync with the support you offer others
  • The Sun (12th/Libra) opposite Eris (6th/Aries R) – suggests that you may experience an inner struggle over self-expression or direction
  • Mercury (12th/Libra) quincunx Pallas (4th/Pisces R) – indicates that miscommunication can occur without understanding the overall picture
  • Mercury (12th/Libra) trine Ceres (8th/Gemini R) – indicates that reflection is necessary so that you nurture others in a manner that provides valuable insight to others
  • Venus (2nd/Sagittarius) opposite Ceres (8th/Gemini R) – reflect on balancing your own need for support with the support you give to others
  • Mars (12th/Libra) opposite Eris (6th/Aries R) – indicates tension surrounding self-expression with control-issues possible
  • Jupiter (4th/Aquarius) sextile Juno (2nd/Sagittarius) – if seeking a love relationship, the way may open for that to happen today or to strengthen an already existing one
  • Saturn (3rd/Aquarius) semisquare Juno (2nd/Sagittarius) – describes the need for discernment so that partnerships aren’t formed for a more situational objective instead of something more long term
  • Uranus (7th/Taurus R) opposite Vesta (1st/Scorpio) – suggests that you may have difficulty focusing on routine tasks
  • Neptune (5th/Pisces R) square Juno (2nd/Sagittarius) – discernment is needed when choosing a partner so that an unrealistic or destructive choice isn’t made
  • Pluto (3rd/Capricorn) square Eris (6th/Aries R) – describes potential hidden agendas by others, or inner woundings that may impact self-mastery
  • Pallas (4th/Pisces R) square Ceres (8th/Gemini R) – suggests a new strategy may be needed when nurturing others
  • Lilith (8th/Gemini) conjunct Aldebaran at 10°Ge05 – suggests success is derived through integrity

The Ascendant: Scorpio – a feminine, fixed sign that suggests an individual who may exercise some restraint before initiating something new preferring to see how others manage something before diving in. That said, when Scorpio focuses in, that focus is quite intense in its expression. You’re independent and self-reliant with a strong will that will achieve your objectives. You are also highly perceptive and, at times, secretive, and you may experience difficulty with emotional balance.

Black Moon Lilith: 8th 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 8th House of transformation, death/rebirth, intimacy/sexuality this may be challenging with Lilith’s darker side potentially resistant to new experiences with 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 stay focused to avoid miscommunication as well as to keep your competitive attitude under control. The way through such transformation is to trust your instincts, embrace the shadow side of self, and focus on compassion and nurturing relationships with both self and others. Aspects include Mercury, Saturn, Pluto, Chiron R, Pallas R, Ceres R

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.

Lunar Phase: Waxing; Gibbous (resourceful and goal-oriented); Full on 20 Oct 2021 at 7:57 AM PDT at 27°Ar26′

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

Retrograde: 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; 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 – indicates a focus on esoteric studies and original thought; Ceres – reflect on the manner in which you extend/receive nurturing and consider whether or not your approach is balanced and respectful of boundaries, both your own and those of others.

Upcoming retrogrades to be aware of: Leaving retrograde – Jupiter (18 Oct – 22°Aq19); Pallas (9 Nov – 09°Pi03′); Mercury (18 Oct – 10°Li07)

Polarity: The masculine (projective) polarity is significantly stronger today than the feminine (receptive) suggesting that although motivation and initiating new experiences are there, caution may be necessary in how we express that energy to avoid an aggressive response.

Elemental Influence: Elemental Fire (will, creativity, motivation) provides the strongest influence today with Air (intellect, reason, justice, interaction) influencing next. Earth (material concerns, physical presence) and Water (emotions, compassion, empathy) follow with a significantly lesser impact.

Ray Influences:  The 1st Ray of will and power continues in its increased strength today suggesting that although self assertion is likely strong, you may have difficulty reining that in, and a lack of tolerance is possible.

The 2nd Ray’s reduced strength indicates that compassion, empathy, and wisdom may have little influence over your responses. Fortunately, with the decreased impact of the 6th Ray, although impulse control could still be an issue, it may not be as evident today.

Although lessening somewhat, the continued strong impact of the 3rd Ray of active intelligence signals a concern that although information may be organized and expressed well, a self-driven agenda instead of an outcome that is based on harmony and the preservation of a shared values may be influencing perceptions and behavior. 

Although the 5th Ray of concrete knowledge and science continues to exert an influence over your mindset and decisions, with the lesser strength of the 4th Ray of harmony through conflict, problem-solving or finding common ground with others may still be difficult today.

Overall, the 7th Ray’s effect on balancing higher self with ego suggests that awareness of the greater picture may have more of an impact on self-expression and decisions.
