Moon Phase – waning – 16% Visibility – Moon in Cancer

Lunar Day 25

Different traditions contradict each other about this day. Albert the Great considers it to be unfortunate, whilst Vronsky and Veda see it as auspicious for trips and travelling, trade and buying. Veda recommends that important affairs should be started on this day, but Globa believes everyone should be passive and contemplative.

Vronsky:

The day is good and beneficial for any kind of trips and travels, including those for business, as well as for moving house. It is also good for buying and selling, for litigation, but also for sleep and rest.

A child of this day will be a favourite of his own Fortune, good luck will follow him throughout the whole life. The one who falls ill on this day can die without a help from someone else.

Globa:

Symbol – vessels with live and dead water. A passive, contemplative day. It gives solitude and concentration on spiritual problems. One should cleanse their body from debris, listen to their inner voice. One could undertake a medical fasting. Hastiness is counterindicated. Clearhearing is a sign of slavish dependence on someone.

Almanac For Friday 30 August 2013 (Venus)

Friday 30 August 2013 (Venus)

Moon Phase – waning – 24% visible – Moon in Cancer at 12:32 BST

Moon in Cancer

Increased emotions, vulnerability and touchiness. Your need for seclusion could become quite strong, and there is a desire to communicate only with those closest to you. It is not a good idea to deal with large groups of people, or to appear on stage. You may also want to care for others, or have others look after you. Emotional difficulties may also be an obstacle to business success.

In the body, the sign of Cancer is associated primarily with stomach and breasts.

Lunar Day 24

In the European tradition, this day is of no account and is considered to be absolutely neutral, but Veda and Avesta emphasise that it increases physical energy and sexuality, and inclines to arguments, risks and rivalry. It is not recommended to start anything, especially with the hopes of significant financial results.

Vronsky:

This day can be named neutral, indifferent. It won’t bring any harm if you will continue to do something that was started earlier. A child born on this day may become honest and kind, or greedy, or envious, but in any case he will be a big foodie. The illnesses, as a rule, are not dangerous and won’t have any consequences.

Globa:

Symbol – the bear. The day of awakening and transformation. A revelation and an enormous energy can pour down on someone. A beneficial day for subduing one’s physical nature, sexual energy, for conceiving and healing. One should strengthen their health and elevate their spiritual level. One can lay the foundation of a house or a temple. Rapists and sadists are prosecuted.

The Crystal of the Day for Thursday 29 August 2013

The Crystal of the Day for Thursday 29 August 2013 is Cat’s Eye. The Cat’s Eye gemstone is found in honey, yellow-green, and black, however there are many other shades to the stone. Black Cat’s Eye is also worn to nullify the effects of Ketu, as it belongs to the planet Ketu. The stone enhances support, stability, courage, will power, and wisdom. It brings enlightenment toward the path to liberation. Cat’s Eye is also know for its power to attract sudden wealth.

Cat’s Eye guards its wearer against accidents, evil. It also saves one from physical weaknesses, evil spirits and mental imbalances. It helps people to be in harmony with others and accept their own self. It will stablise emotions, enhance ones senses and improves the ability to deal with challenging situations.

With all this said, it is not recommended to wear a Cat’s Eye pendant as it offers no benefit to the wearer. A Cat’s Eye bracelet or ring brings best results. It even comes with its days for wearing: Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday and the best time to wear it is 2 hours after sunset. A few more facts before we all run out to buy one: If the Cat’s Eye is not brilliant and shiney but dull, it is injurious for physical health and personal wealth of owner. If there is a crack within the gemstone, it brings injuries from sharp-edged weapons. If there is a “cobweb” inside the gemstone, it will bring imprisonment and harmful to wearer. Having 5 streaks or bands of light it brings misfortune. If it has holes or dents, it will bring diseases of the stomach. Uneven in shape, unlucky. Apart from all that, if you get a near-perfect on that shines like Cat Eyes in a dark place, then it is a lucky gem indeed!

The Crystal of the Day for Wednesday 28 August 2013

The Crystal of the Day for Wednesday 28 August 2013 is Mariam (Miriam, Maryam) Jasper. Mariam Jasper was formed when the Himalayas rose into the sky. It is compressed bone, vegetation and shell from an ancient swamp which was compressed by the incredible forces involved in the mountains creation. It is also sometimes called “The Calligrapher’s Stone” (which I believe is wrongly associated as what I have researched, Calligrapher’s stone looks different completely) or “Cobra Jasper”, to name a few.

All jaspers are strong securing, stability stones. It is a powerful protection against things that are not good for you and it eases emotional stresses, making it a wonderful gemstone to have in your home. Jasper gives one the courage to speak out and have personal independence. It also protects from fears in the night.

Mariam Jasper helps keep one cool under severe pressure. It is a alchemist stone, enabling one to transform seemingly hopeless situations into creative positive ones. It also serves to counterbalance the busy modern world by bringing back pleasure in nature. It is considered an amulet for driving long distances, prosperity on business trips and overseas deals. Use Mariam Jasper for long term business decision making and forward planning. It Counters instant gratification that can destabilise a happy relationship, aids the gentle release of karma or trauma from the past, helping you to move forward into the future and is said to ease skin complaints, scar tissue, mobility, and scalp disorders.

Moon phase – Last Quarter (at 10:34 BST) – Moon in Gemini at 00:07 BST

Moon in Gemini

Sociability, cheerfulness and quick-wittedness are on the increase, and there is an interest in all kinds of information. The Moon in Gemini favours study, intellectual pursuits, acquaintances, conferences and gatherings. However, heightened changeability and scattering your interests can prevent you from getting definite, tangible results.

In the body the sign of Gemini is associated with lungs, upper airways, arms and hands, clavicles.

Lunar Day 23

Most traditions consider this day as fairly good and active. The European tradition portends fame and honours to matters which come to a head on this day, but it doesn’t recommend starting anything new. The Vedic tradition promises success in many affairs and also does recommend starting something new. For Globa, it is a day of penitence when vampires rage.

Vronsky:

The day is very good for completion of any activity, any enterprise. Not only they will be resultful, they can bring honour and glory, popularity and wellbeing. However, one should not start any new activity as it will be senseless and useless.

A child born on this day won’t be especially beautiful, so a lot in his life will depend on his ability to gain knowledge and be kind. The illnesses of this day are long, and the dreams are false.

Globa:

Symbol – the crocodile. One of the days of seduction, of vampires’ bacchanalia. The period of fasting, abstention, carefulness, repentance, forgiveness and self-sacrifice. This day is connected to hounding, manhunt, exile, encounter with a mad crowd. One should guard one’s house: clean it, sprinkle it with holy water, cleanse thresholds with fire, fumigate with Labrador tea and cumin. It is good to make cheese pies and to bake a nut into them. It is recommended to eat dairy products. It is dangerous to give way to anger, to overeat. One should not cut hair or nail, have a surgery, have a sedentary life.

Lunar Day 22

Different traditions completely disagree on how to treat this day. The European tradition takes it as particularly inauspicious, but suggests that those who were born on this day have the potential to become good people. The Vedic tradition considers it auspicious for trips and transport, whilst Globa recommends it as a day to study sciences, and master a specific subject.

Vronsky:

The day is unfavourable and unsuccessful for beginnings of various activities. A child born on this day will be a good, active person and will live to a very old age. For the one who falls ill on this day the illness can become dangerous. Dreams will be fulfilled.

Globa:

Symbol – the elephant. Wisdom, firmness, the Universal Law, hidden knowledge, informational field. The day for achieving a goal, studying sciences, trades, understanding one’s own roots.
