  • Challenges – respect for the viewpoints of others, avoiding overreaction, and balancing responsibility with personal time

Rune Divination: Kenaz, Thurisaz, Uruz comprise today’s rune divination where profound transformative energy is at work. Uruz provides the soul impetus behind how we perceive our experiences with Kenaz, the torch or light of Spirit, illuminating and awakening us to that higher resonance of perception. Thurisaz, Thor’s rune, breaks through challenges, controls impulses, and provides protection on a new path forward. The consideration then is to allow Spirit to inform our perceptions so that our interactions with others come from a place of harmony and love.


Lunar position: The Moon in Cancer until Leo at 5:54 PM PDT – A square between the Moon and Mercury in Retrograde counsels you to take a step back before responding to a situation that could result in miscommunication if the entire picture isn’t clear. In addition, Pluto’s retrograde influence increases sensitivity and you may feel triggered by the emotions of others. That said, when uncomfortable emotions arise, it signals the need for healing old patterns. With Jupiter’s retrograding influence as well on Thursday, inner work is favored to help release preconceived notions and perceptions that impact your interactions with others. 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 R/Pluto R/Eris R – with Mercury in retrograde you’ll need to avoid overreaction so that you express yourself in a calm, reasoned manner that respects the input of others.
  • Juno/Pallas R/Ceres – there may be more going on than you realize as issues arise that surround your response to the emotional needs of others, and it may become necessary to reevaluate your overall understanding of the situation so that you respond with compassion instead of judgment.

Thor’s Hammer

  • Mercury R/Pluto R/Lilith – although interactions with close partners or family members could devolve into chaos today, your instincts tell you that this is also a transformative moment where great healing can happen. Choose compassion and refrain from judgment.

3 Point 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)

  • The Sun (12th/Libra) semisquare Venus (2nd/Scorpio) Orb 00°A14′ – you may find relating to others impacted today with self-confidence less than usual
  • The Sun (12th/Libra) conjunct Mars (12th/Libra) Orb 02°A28′ – you have plenty of energy today which can backfire if impulse control is lacking
  • The Sun (12th/Libra) trine Saturn (4th/Aquarius R) Orb 00°S41′ – self-confidence is generally good today as is a practical approach to your responsibilities
  • Mercury (1st/Libra R) trine Jupiter (4th/Aquarius R) Orb 01°A56′ – your ideas have a positive impact on a wide variety of people
  • Mercury (1st/Libra R) square Pluto (4th/Capricorn R) Orb 00°A27′ – you may struggle with remaining calm and balanced today and you may become obsessive in your thinking and self-expression.
  • Mercury (1st/Libra R) conjunct Arcturus at 20°Sc11 suggests the need for another approach
  • Mercury (1st/Libra R) conjunct Spica at 24°Li08 indicates the potential is there for brilliance
  • Venus (2nd/Scorpio) square Jupiter (4th/Aquarius R) Orb 00°A24′ – you may lack perseverance today in the face of challenges reinforced by a focus on your own desires
  • Venus (2nd/Scorpio) trine Neptune (5th/Pisces R) Orb 01°S04′ – indicates you may be viewing a situation that could impact healing in an unrealistic manner
  • Mars (12th/Libra) opposite Chiron (6th/Aries R) Orb 00°A33′ – your perspective may be experiencing ongoing change and you may benefit from outside support.

Goddess-oriented Planetary Interactions

  • Mercury (1st/Libra R) opposite Eris (7th/Aries R) Orb 00°A23′ – your intellectual expression seems to be at odds with self-assertion today which may result in some difficulty with understanding the bigger picture
  • Mars (12th/Libra) trine Ceres (8th/Gemini) Orb 01°A45′ – there may be a tendency to over-nurture others today
  • Uranus (8th/Taurus R) sextile Pallas (5th/Pisces R) Orb 00°S27′ – indicates an unconventional approach may be valuable today
  • Pluto (4th/Capricorn R) square Eris (7th/Aries R) Orb 00°A04′ – describing potential hidden agendas by others, or inner woundings that may impact self-mastery
  • Chiron (6th/Aries R) parallel Bellatrix at +06°22′ suggests that mastery and success can be found through the shadow side of self
  • Pallas (5th/Pisces R) square Ceres (8th/Gemini) Orb 01°A44′ – suggests a new strategy may be needed when nurturing others

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 sextile with Juno indicates that achieving status and recognition is important.

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 and keep your competitive attitude under control. The way through such transformation is to focus on compassion and nurturing relationships with both self and others. Aspects include The Sun, Mars, Saturn R, Pluto R, Ceres, Eris R, North/South Nodes

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. The Sun in aspect with the North Node suggests that you live up to your true potential.


Lunar Phase: Waning; Disseminating (signals the desire to share information with others); 3rd Quarter; New on 6 Oct 2021 at 4:06 AM PDT at 13°Li24

Mansion of the Moon: 9th – Atarf (The Gaze); 12°Cn51′; eye of lion; hinders trail, causes discord, and harms harvest.

RetrogradeMercury – this is a time for observation in lieu of reaction as well as issues involving communication in all forms including electronics. Avoid signing contracts during this time; 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 – indicates a focus on esoteric studies and original thought.

Upcoming retrogrades to be aware of: Ceres (10 Oct – 12°Gem08′). Planets leaving retrograde: Jupiter (19 Oct – 22°Aq19); Saturn (12 Oct – 06°Aq52); Pluto (7 Oct – 24°Cp18); Pallas (9 Nov – 09°Pi03′)


Polarity: The polarities are in relative balance today.

Elemental Influence: Elemental Air (intellect, reason, justice, interaction) provides the strongest influence with Water (emotions, compassion, empathy) next in strength. Earth (material concerns, physical presence) and Fire (will, creativity, motivation) are having the least impact and are in relative balance with each other.


Ray Influences: The Rays continue at their same strength as yesterday as the effect of the 1st Ray of will and power remains moderately low with expressions of pride or arrogance a possibility today that may lead to the need to control others. The 2nd Ray’s lower strength indicates a decrease in love and wisdom bringing it in balance with the continued low impact of the 6th Ray’s effect on devotion to idealism or ideology.

The decreased strength of the 2nd Ray signals a lack of empathy toward others. The 6th Ray’s present strength (or lack thereof) suggests a lack of impulse control is present with the risk still there for fanaticism and manipulation from the agendas of others.

In response to the decreased impact of the 2nd Ray, as the 3rd Ray of active intelligence increases in strength, there is a concern that a self-driven agenda instead of an outcome that is based on harmony and the preservation of a shared values may be present.

The 5th Ray of concrete knowledge and science is still having a decreased impact on our mindset and decisions, and with the low impact of the 4th Ray of harmony through conflict, arriving at a shared truth may prove challenging.

Overall, the 7th Ray’s impact on balancing higher self with ego suggests that awareness of the greater picture is strong which may resonate with or impact self-expression and decisions. But how that manifests will continue to be an individual decision.

  • 1st (will/power) – low/medium impact – creativity and inspiration continue to be less of an influence as are motivation and self-assertion
  • 2nd (love/wisdom) – significantly low impact – the impact on extending unconditional love, compassion, and understanding has decreased significantly today
  • 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 and mediation may still be difficult to achieve
  • 5th (concrete knowledge and science) – low impact – 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) – very low 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. Today’s significantly low impact suggests that devotion to personal ideology may be less or may be changing
  • 7th (ceremonial order/magick) – strong impact – balancing the lower ego expression with higher self awareness may become easier today
