Planet: the Moon
Sign: Cancer
Day: Monday |
Moons are celestial globes who do not have their
own orbit, but who circle around a planet. Therefore the symbolic
meaning of the Moon is receptivity, reaction and reflection (the
Moon mirrors the sun-light, and a mirror is a glass plate with
a thin silver layer!) And of course we know that the Moon has monthly
phases, and that her magnetism is related to the rhythms of ebb-
and flood-tide. That's why the Moon is further related to femininity,
motherliness, cycles and (changeable) emotions. Cancers are prudent
and emotional people with a strong fantasy and a strong sense
of family.
Medical astrology places these subjects under rulership of the
Moon: female reproductive organs, menstruation, the breasts, hormonal
imbalances, the stomach and the watery body-fluids like slime,
tears and digestive secretions.
Magickal use of silver:
- Use the metal or the color silver in rituals, spells or
talismans concerning Moon-goddesses, the female force, cycles,
emotional and/or hormonal imbalances, reflecting or neutralizing
negativity, dreams and intuition, psychic work and psychic abilities.
- Wear silver jewelry to improve fertility, emotional
and hormonal stability.
- Silver improves the assimilation of food; that's why young
children (in their Moon-years) are traditionally given a silver
fork and spoon to eat with.
- Drink water that is charged during 6 to 24 hours with the
energies of silver objects
Homeopathic medicines derived from silver are
Argentum
nitricum and Argentum metallicum
