Monday's Child

It is said that Monday's child is fair of face,
glowing with the radiance of moonlight.

Protecting Planet

The MOON

Monday is the day of the Moon,
from the Anglo-Saxon 'Monan-daeg'.

Monday is the second day of the week,
but its importance was second to none
 in the eyes of our ancient ancestors.

 The moon is said to symbolise magic and enchantment.

Our ancestors believed that each day of the week
was under the protection of its own special god,
or goddess, and that this deity ruled the lives,
thoughts and actions of all those born on that day.

This deity also had a strong affinity with its own
special planet, therefore the motions of this planet
had an effect on all those born under its influence.

To our ancestors the Moon was a powerful force,
 to some it was the father, brother or sister of the
 Sun and they worshipped the Moon as a deity.
 Listed below are the names of some of these
 gods associated with the ancient Moon culture.

The ancient gods range over many different cultures
and many thousands of years but they represent the
same beliefs held sacred by our common ancestors.

Babylonian... Sin the Moon God.           
        Egyptian... Khonsu the God of Duality.
       Indian... Chandra the Moon God.  
          Greek... Selene the Moon Goddess.
       Roman... Diana the Moon Goddess.
  Norse... Mani the Moon God.
Anglo-Saxon... Mona the Moon God.         

There are a many other Moon Gods.

The Good Qualities
 of Monday's Child

Monday's child has a unique duality due to a
strong feminine streak which gives gentleness,
grace, a love of fine things and imagination.

Monday's Women tend to have a great animal
magnetism but men could tend towards petulance
and vanity if they do not cultivate their masculinity.

You are sparkling and witty and love to shine
in the mixed company of any age or gender.

You seem more at home in the town than in the
country but you like wildlife and Green issues.

 You can be very possessive and jealous of your
loved one but as a trustworthy lover yourself you
see nothing wrong in demanding your own freedom.

You will marry for convenience as you dislike
 any quarrelling and require harmony in your life.

You would be happy working with the earth,
farming or forestry, but then again your duality
could send you to the far ends of the earth as an
explorer, actor, diplomat, negotiator or gigolo.

Happy Birthday

The Faults of
Monday's Child

Indecision and hesitation are the bane of a Moon-child's
existence and will lead to failure in most enterprises unless
they can rely on the advice of more logical companions.
Your good-natured disposition and your eager
willingness to help all those who ask a favour can
 sometimes lead to over-stretching your abundant
capabilities to your own detriment and happiness.
 You are a born actor, as changeable as the many
phases of the moon but take care to remember
when it is an act, or one could become two-faced.

Happy Birthday

Magic Squares
were used by Medieval Magicians
 to make sigils, a seal or talisman
 which gave power and safety to the
wearer for one's personal protection.

Let us say, for example, that we wish
to make a sigil of the name John

From the table we have

J = 1,   O = 6,  H = 8,  N = 5,

giving a running number of

 1,6,8,5.

We can trace this continuous line from
number to number on John's

Magic Square for Monday (369).

and this is John's sigil for a Monday's Child.

Do not put the numbers on your sigil as
they are only there to show how it is made.

 You may make a sigil for any purpose
 that your heart may desire.

To give protection to a loved one.

 To draw energy from the Higher Powers.

 To aid concentration.

To re-direct your thoughts.

To acquire great wealth.

To be the person you wish to be.

The choice is yours, Monday's Child,
but one should be very careful about
 what one wishes for on this special day
because it may just happen to you.

   make them with love

Happy Birthday
