Magic February
Full Moon in leo + Eclipse & Comet
Greetings to all my witches and sorcerers who follow me, we are starting the Second Month of 2017 and is a month charged with very good vibes, and why shouldn’t it? We are facing a month full of powerful moons, comets and a pair of eclipses that come to charge of energy the atmosphere and all of us.
First let’s briefly review some history to enter properly into this magical process and be able to understand it. During the «Age of Myths» in Old Europe, more specifically in Ancient Rome, the «Februas», a series of purification festivals based on cleanliness to celebrate the arrival of spring and fluvial time, were organized and celebrated annually. The feasts were so called because of the ancient Etruscan where the word for «February» was used to refer to «water to clean».
The ancient Romans assigned a different deity to each month, and assigned to this month a properly Etruscan God who received the name of Februus, a male deity of the dead and purification. This divinity came to be worshiped decades later by the Etruscans who lived on the outskirts of Rome in the form of «Febris», the Goddess of fever and malaria , who not only produced it but also prevented and healed it, her worship was such that three great temples were built in her name.
These feasts (the Februas) became part of the «Lupercales,» a series of continuous ceremonial feasts dedicated to the Faun God and the She-wolf who, in the old myth, nursed Romulus and Remus, the sons of the God of War and founders of Rome. These feasts were celebrated with a purpose of fecundity and purification of the city, where men and women found parners and procreated after a ritual officiated by a local priest who immolated a young goat in honor to the pagan Gods, in order to attract strong and healthy offspring. It is no coincidence that Valentine’s Day is celebrated every February 14, because the Lupercales and Februas were celebrated on the 15th day of the same month, which later became known as «Februarius «, Thus giving passage after the month of» February «.
This Month is especially dedicated to love, fecundity and purification, it is also the first month after the beginning of all annual cycles, we have left behind the celebration of the New Year, Chinese New Year or Lunar New Year, and we have recently received the first new moon of this year, this is definitely the perfect month to start new projects and undertake new paths, start courses and academic careers.
A Month Full of Good Vibes
February (or Februarius) is a magnificently charged month, we recently received the lunar new year and we are waiting for two magical eclipses, the penumbral eclipse of the moon and the annular eclipse of Sun, Oh and let’s not forget that tiny detail that does not surprise us, the comet 45P/Honda will be located in the constellation of Hercules and will be visible to the naked eye, so it is my witches and wizards, experts and novices alike, we have a giant comet, an astrological and Magical event of those that come charged with a lot of vibes to channel. It is time to anoint ourcandles with our best oils, cleanse the house (a little local Feng Shui is never too much), clean the mirrors with Artemis and prepare out Best amulets, as a magical night is around the corner and if you have desires on the way, this is the time to ask for them.
The comet in question, the 45P/Honda, which for lack of a less epic name we will call «Magic February» (or at least I will), is on the way, will pass the point closest to Earth on February 11, ehen it may be visible with special binoculars and even presumed we will be able to spot it with the naked eye, as long as we are far from excessive light pollution and properly positioned in the constellation of Hercules, the protective warrior of humanity. Our Magic February will appear far away during the most convenient night of the month, as it falls just one night after the full moon in Leo. There will be no better time this weekend (February 10 and 11) to carry out those spells, potions, rituals and amulets that increase our character, our physical energy and our power over others.
