Aria Sparrowsong's TAROT AND STARS

Home is the keyword for this beautiful Moon, a cold and icy one outside in many places in the Northern Hemisphere but with the emotional depths of Mother and Goddess, the hearth-fire, food, comfort and care to include self-care--the things that matter most. Key magickal work right now are topics centered around home, creature comforts, stability, security, loved ones, self-care and loving oneself and proper boundaries. Cancer, the Fourth House and the Moon reminds us of where we get comfort and who we get it from.  The Moon will peak on January 17th, 2022 at 18:48 Hrs (6:48 PM EST). I ended up writing this several hours after the peak because I was in the middle of that self care. For auspicious times for your magickal workings, the energies exist at least 2 days before and 2 days after. It is important to know that after the peak, the Moon is in it's waning state, so keep that in mind for specific spells you plan on doing. One can always do a Full Moon working by calling in TIME a...

Don't ever underestimate the very feminine and watery sign of Cancer--Cancer Sun Sign people are not slouches--some of our most powerful environmental activists are born under this sign! Everyone knows someone saving Mother Earth--our home and working as a Water Protector! Cancer is one of the four cardinal signs and it's energies initiate and take action!  Remember that these mothers are FIERCE! Especially when protecting what is theirs. This upcoming Full Moon in Cancer will peak on Friday, January 10th at 2:21PM EST and this timing will be very significant for doing magick and/or rituals concerning emotions, kids and the homefront. In a personal natal chart, these are Fourth House energies that are associated with t...

July 16 is an astrologically eventful night, bringing us a  full buck moon  and partial  lunar eclipse . What does that all mean? Let’s break it down. First, each month's full moon has different traditional names. According to  the Old Farmer’s Almanac,  July’s full moon is called the  buck moon  or thunder moon, because it coincides with the time of year when a buck’s antlers are full grown and thunderstorms are frequent. Next, a  lunar eclipse  only occurs during a full moon. It happens when the sun, moon, and Earth align in such a way that the Earth’s shadow moves over the face of the moon. This month brings us a  partial lunar eclipse , so the Earth’s shadow will be seen on only part of moon. While much of the world — including most of Australia, Africa, South America, Europe, and Asia — will be able to see the partial lunar eclipse, the majority of North America is out of luck. A total lunar eclipse is sometimes calle...
