This evening, the sun entered Virgo, but this morning was the time when the sun and moon were in the same degree in opposite signs -- and at that time the sun was in Leo and moon in Aquarius -- in the 29th degree. This is called the critical degree. This is called a Double Full Moon because we already had a full moon in Aquarius on the 27th of July. That one was in the very first degree of Aquarius.
Aquarius is one of my favorite signs. Ruled by both Uranus and Saturn, there is a willingness to work hard, but the person has to do it all in their own unique way -- and they will often have humanitarian ideals, whether or not they follow up on them. I bet their dreams are of doing good in the world. Some choose to do good in the world by working hard on themselves. The eleventh house that Aquarius rules is all about community, about circles of friends and organizations -- especially those that do good things in the world, those that are idealistic and want to change the world.
Mark and I played our music late this evening, we sang to the moon -- a couple of songs specifically about the moon. Then I went for my evening walk, somewhat shortened, as it was already growing dark. When I came home, we lit a small fire in the cauldron and burned our prosperity checks we'd written at new moon. We've been doing this spell for a long time. When we started, we were pretty far down the economic line, barely keeping enough food to get us through the month -- usually. And nothing extra to share. So we wrote on our checks, enough and to share -- and we've had that, pretty much lately. We are also advancing a little -- still looking for home. Hoping home also includes a bit of a place to share.
