Lightcasting Day: April 2009!
[ 24 April 2009 ]
Eeeeeep! I almost forgot! Today is Lightcasting Day wherever you are on the planet — the day of the new moon, the day when it’s most powerful to do some manifesting & visualising & think about what it is you want out of the next month!
If you’re new to lightcasting, I wrote a guide to it a few months ago. Each sign has something different to focus on each month, so here’s what you might like to meditate on today or tomorrow!
Aquarius Start from the ground up. Take stock of the environment you grew up in, your early childhood, & how you treat yourself today. Choose to heal, to grow & leave the past behind.
Pisces How do you react to the world around you? How could you change the way you behave in order to alter your current reality? Try writing it out or talking about it with someone you trust; see what you can come up with.
Aries Give some thought to how much you value yourself, your time, your health. Basically, this weekend is about self-esteem. Every choice we make has a direct correlation to how much we love ourselves, so what are your choices saying about you?
Taurus Who do you think you are? It’s time to create a new persona & a new ego. Do you want to be wild or mild? Sweet or crazy? Honest or shrewd? Throw it all into a big mixing pot & start living it.
Gemini Switch up your routine & break rotten old patterns. If someone always talks to you in a way you don’t like, start reacting differently. Change habits which are unhealthy or make you feel bad about yourself.
Cancer Are you a social butterfly or a homebody? This coming month is all about your position in society. Think about the kind of social life you’d like to have, then start making it happen!
Leo How do you feel about your work? Does it fulfil you or does it leave you feeling empty & drained? What kind of legacy do you want to leave behind? This weekend, visualise yourself living & loving you ideal work.
Virgo Our beliefs are fluid, they change as we do. The things that used to be true for you may not be any longer. You may have thought having a job = security, but that’s not true any more. Don’t be afraid to shift your perceptions!
Libra Where do you draw the line with other people? Do you have trouble saying no? This month is all about boundaries & intimacy — it’s time to create new boundaries that make you feel good.
Scorpio You’re re-evaluating everything you’ve been connected to for a long time — like relationships, work, friends & even how you treat yourself. Heavy stuff! Try not to overburden yourself though, just ruminate!
Sagittarius When you change your day-to-day life, everything else changes too. It’s the perfect time to switch your routine, what you eat, how you exercise, & who you spend time with.
Capricorn Your inner child wants some attention! Our inner child is the part of us that dreams really big, with no regard for how to do anything. Listen closely this weekend & you’ll remember what it is you really want!
You can get a whole lot more information about your individual sign here! Enjoy your weekend!

Yes! I love the violet shaded still from Blood on Satan’s Claw- one of my all-time favorite movies! I love Linda Hayden as Angel Blake- her eyebrows are out of this world. Definitely feeling the inner child work lately- this translated last night to chocolate mushroom shaped pocky for dinner though! Eep! Maybe jumping on the bed and putt-putt instead?
love your blog so much. have been reading for awhile. just wanted to say hello! and thanks from a fellow new yorker . ;)
xoxo, cara mia
That is scary accurate for a Scorpio:)
This is absolutely perfect for me — especially since we Tauruses are now in our birthday season, it’s a great time to start fresh! Thanks, Gala!
Good god. The Virgo suggestions are SPOT ON. There is an area of my life where everything I thought I knew has been thrown topsy turvy and I kind of don’t know if I am growing and what I want is changing…or maybe I am selfish and a terrible person.
This has given me more to think about. But in a good way. I just wish I had the answers and knew things would turn out OK.
This is so apt! I’m working on becoming my alter ego Vixxie; getting a new facebook, reworking the blog, making my friends call me Vixxie (hardest one!) and I want all of this done by May (for Vixxie May)!
Thank you and wish me luck!
Ahhh, perfection. I’m going on retreat to write my 5-year plan this weekend – a project that got postponed from February. I’m a Capricorn, and it sounds like the unplanned postponement was in my best interest after all! Can’t wait to see what kind of a 5-year plan my inner child cooks up.
I’m a Gemini and it’s really funny I just read that! Because here lately I’ve realized the same stuff I have been doing, is just getting me no where and I keep going in a circle. I guess you could put it that way (If it makes sense).
I’m not that old, so I haven’t been going in these circles very long, but even the little things like… I am not where I want to be, whether is be with grades, or blogging (Online marketing-ish), or life in general. I’m not in the most positive atmosphere, but I’m not the most positive person… Can’t blame that on OTHER people.
Well… I CAN, but it’s not the wisest thing to do!
Lolz!
so true for me right now xx
Totally true for me!
i love how these things are always spot-on. so true, so true. i’ve loved astrology since i was a kid! i should pay more attention to it now.
Whoa, that is so accurate! no longer a cynic
um, as a scorpio, does that mean i should put off making big decisions such as leaving a marriage until next month???
Amazingly accurate… I’m a Libra, and today was probably the first time I ever said no to somebody!
May I ask you something? I’ll be moving to New York in about two years, and I’m thinking about where to live. I was thinking either Brooklyn or Manhattan… can you recommend a neighborhood to me?
“Every choice we make has a direct correlation to how much we love ourselves, so what are your choices saying about you?”
That meant so much to me, I had to write it down. Thanks for being inspiring.
I’ve never heard of this, but it sounds really cool! Thanks for sharing it. I’m definitely going to do it.

OMGosh! Gala that prediction was right on the dot. I’m leaving for college in a couple months and I have been reevaluating everything (Scorpio Power) ranging from friends to hairstyles! The task is daunting and the idea of leaving the nest scares me a bit, but what you said was very needed and inspiring! Thank you!
I don’t really believe in astrology, but horoscopes are sure fun to read! Hmm…I’m not sure what perceptions have changed in my life recently. Got me thinking, that’s for sure.
(By the way I know you love all Virgos, Gala, so I had to comment ;))
Renee
hmm… i spent the 24th waitressing and partying. i hope that’s not how i’m going to spend the rest of the month now!
omg, i’m a cancer and I having such a homebody/social life dilemma right this very minute!! i can’t decide whether to stay in and veg out tonight or go get ready for a party later…
I haven’t been out for ages and I think I’m a bit scared. Maybs I should just take the plunge and go out. eep, fear.

Angeliska — Cutest! Definitely, time for dreamies & swanboats & lavish, sugar-laden lunches!
Cara Mia — Thanks sweetheart! Nice weather today innit?!
dana — I always think that things are constantly getting better & better, even though we hit rough patches, those difficult times elevate us to something bigger & brighter. So I hope it works out for you, though I am sure it will!
Vixxie — I’m sure you’ll succeed wonderfully!
tara — Usually the new moon is when we have ideas or think about what it is we want, & we take action shortly after. So don’t wait, necessarily, but make sure you think it through now!
elle — Well, I live in Manhattan & love it, but it really depends on what you’re looking for & what you can afford. Some places in Brooklyn are much cheaper, but then, some aren’t. If you have a look on Craigslist you’ll get an idea of approximate rents, but walking around the city is the best way to get a feel for the kind of neighbourhood you’re into!
Paige — You’re most welcome :>
Renee — Yes, Virgo power!!!
Sapphire Island — Go out! Go out! Go out!
I am Libra; I can relate to that statement. :( I’m always stuck at either one end or the other (I need balance.)
Thanks for posting this, Gala.
Lucy xI love it! I’m a Sagittarius, and this is a perfect reiteration as to how I have been improving my lifestyle…
No, really. I have been switching my routine, just like my fellow sagittarious Elana (above me) has been.
Crazy accurate! Love it.
hahaha… kind of accurate for a cancer like moi at the moment. well its summer time here so theres alot of social events going on. I just hope i can attend to all.
