Color of the day: Maroon
Incense of the day: Daffodil A solar eclipse occurs as the Sun casts the Moon's shadow across the Earth. It unites the powers of Sun and Moon, light and darkness, logic and intuition. It is "a day without a night, a night without a day," magically suspended from normal routines: a cosmic exception that proves the rule of Sun and Moon. An eclipse is a perfect time for changing patterns. Use its power to break curses, bad habits, and so forth. Choose a small item representing what you want to dispel. At the time of the eclipse, take the item far from your home. Hold it and concentrate on all that binds and limits you, symbolized by this object. Then say: Eclipse, break through the past Smashing all that held me fast. Shadow come, shadow go, Take this nasty thing I throw. Throw the item as far away from you as possible. Quickly bury it where it falls, then say: Hide it far, far away Lost between the night and day. Leave it there, let it be, Never more to trouble me! Cover the site with fallen leaves or grass to obscure it. Then walk away without looking back. |
