Lunar Mansion Report, December 22, 2025 to December 28, 2025

 This is an entry in a continuing series of posts looking at the Moon's position and condition in the week ahead with an eye to the Mansions of the Moon. This is an exercise to help me track the speed of the Moon, organize my thoughts on the Mansions, and think about the practical applications. 

All times are for me locally, United States Pacific Time. I will be making note of the Moon's phase, speed, and Mansion position in my assessment. Currently, I'm not considering aspects with other planets.

Lunar Mansion Report, December 22, 2025 to December 28, 2025.

Monday, December 22nd, 2025. The Moon is in Caadezod, the Lucky Star of the Lucky at the beginning of December 22nd. The Moon stays in Caadezod for the entirety of December 22nd. The phase is Waxing Crescent, which supports works of opening and renewal.

The Moon will travel through Caadezod for 24 hours and 55 minutes. This is slow but it is 16 minutes less than the previous Mansion, so the Moon is speeding up. A slow Moon can delay the effects of magic but may also prolong those effects. 

The beneficial powers of Caadezod are improvement of cattle and herds (Ibn Hatim, Agrippa, and Latin Picatrix), increase merchandise and make a profit (Latin Picatrix), and victories to armies (Gayat al Hakim). 

The image in the Latin Picatrix is a woman breastfeeding a child. In most sources this Mansion is very beneficial. I associate this Mansion image with Amalthea, the nymph who hid and nursed baby Zeus until he was grown and strong enough to confront Saturn. This would suggest to me that keeping plans, projects, or conspiracies hidden from their intended target is accentuated when the Moon is in this Mansion.

The Moon is in Caadezod at the end of December 22nd.

Tuesday, December 23rd, 2025. The Moon is in Caadezod, the Luck Star of the Lucky. At 12:25am the Moon moves into the next Mansion, Zaadelahbia, the Lucky Star of Hidden Things. The phase is Waxing Crescent, which supports works of initiation and establishment. 

The Moon will travel through Zaadelahbia for 24 hours and 33 minutes. This is slow but it is 22 minutes less than the previous Mansion so the Moon its speeding up. A slow Moon can delay the effects of magic but may make those effects longer lasting.

The beneficial powers of Caadezod are improvement of cattle and herds (Ibn Hatim, Agrippa, and Latin Picatrix), increase merchandise and make a profit (Latin Picatrix), and victories to armies (Gayat al Hakim).

The beneficial qualities of Zaadalahbia include protection from blights and calamities from heaven (Ibn Hatim), dispatching successful messengers and spies and establishing and stabilizing buildings (Gayat al Hakim), protection of orchards and crops (Latin Picatrix), house protection (Celestial Magic), and companionship, love, and being kind (Shams al Marif).

The image in the Latin Picatrix for this Mansion is a man planting a tree and spreading seeds. Things developing under the surface are empowered in Zaadalahbia. In its wrathful form keeping things from growing or developing is strengthened.

The Moon is in Zaadelahbia at the end of December 23rd.

Wednesday, December 24th, 2025. The Moon is in Zaadelahbia, the Lucky Star of Hidden Things when December 24th begins. At 12:58am the Moon moves into the next Mansion, Al Fargh al Awwal, the Upper Waterspout. The phase is Waxing Crescent, which supports works for awakening and cleansing. 

The Moon will travel through Al Fargh al Awwal for 24 hours and 10 minutes. This is slow but it is 23 minutes less than the previous Mansion so the Moon is speeding up. A slow Moon can delay the effects of magic but may also prolong those effects.

The image in the Latin Picatrix for this Mansion is a man planting a tree and spreading seeds. Things developing under the surface are empowered in Zaadalahbia. In its wrathful form keeping things from growing or developing is strengthened.

The beneficial powers of Al Fargh al Awwal include love and lust (Ibn Hatim); all sorts of good things, restoring love and friendship, fulfilling the wishes of travelers, stabilizing buildings (Gayat al Hakim); bind people in mutual love, protect travelers in wagons, strengthen buildings (Latin Picatrix); and creating loving relationships, increasing libido, and cheering up souls with friendships (Shams al Marif).

The image in the Latin Picatrix for this Mansion is a woman washing her hair in a basin. This is an image of spiritual cleansing as Al Fargh al Awwal controls the subtle and lustral waters, the holy and blessed waters.

The Moon is in Al Fargh al Awwal at the end of December 24th. 

Thursday, December 25, 2025. The Moon is in Al Fargh al Awwal, the Upper Waterspout, at the start of December 25th. At 1:98am the Moon moves into the next Mansion, Al Fargh al Thani, the Lower Waterspout. The phase is Waxing Crescent which supports works of healing and vivification. 

The Moon will be in Al Fargh al Thani for 23 hours and 42 minutes which is on the slow side if average. It is however, 28 minutes less than the previous Mansion so the Moon is speeding up. A slow Moon may delay the effects of magic but may also prolong those effects. 

The beneficial powers of Al Fargh al Awwal include love and lust (Ibn Hatim); all sorts of good things, restoring love and friendship, fulfilling the wishes of travelers, stabilizing buildings (Gayat al Hakim); bind people in mutual love, protect travelers in wagons, strengthen buildings (Latin Picatrix), and creating loving relationships, increasing libido, and cheering up souls with friendships (Shams al Marif).

The beneficial effects of Al Fargh al Thani are to increase merchandise and profit, unite allies, increase harvests, and heal illness (Gayat al Hakim, Latin Picatrix, and Agrippa). 

The image in the Latin Picatrix is a man with wings holding a vessel. Al Fargh al Thani is the Lower Waterspout and represents the waters of physical healing. These are the vivifying waters of life. In Nigel Jackson's Celestial Magic, he suggests Al Fargh al Thani is powerful for operations of prophecy and foreknowledge.

The Moon is in Al Fargh al Thani at the end of December 25th. 

Friday, December 26th, 2025. The Moon is in Al Fargh al Thani, the Lower Waterspout, at the beginning if December 26th. At 12:50am the Moon moves into the next Mansion, Al Batn al Hut, the Belly of the Fish. The phase is Waxing Crescent, which supports works of planting seeds and enlightenment. 

The Moon will travel through Al Batn al Hut for 23 hours and 11 minutes. This is fast and it is 31 minutes less than the previous Mansion so the Moon is speeding up. A fast Moon may hasten the effects of magic but may also hasten its dissipation. 

The beneficial effects of Al Fargh al Thani are to increase merchandise and profit, unite allies, increase harvests, and heal illness (Gayat al Hakim, Latin Picatrix, and Agrippa).

The beneficial powers of Al Batn al Hut include successful trade, productive crops, treatment of disease, traveler's safety, restoring relationships between spouses (Gayat al Hakim), increase harvests, travel safely, to gather fish in one place (Latin Picatrix), and create superior works and acts with excellent outcome (Shams al Marif).

The image in the Latin Picatrix for Al Batn al Hut is a fish with a colored spine, a bit of sympathetic magic for attracting more fish to a particular spot. In my own mind there is a connection to the stories of a person being eaten by a fish or a whale and later being expelled.

The Moon is in Al Batyn al Hut at the end of December 26th.

Saturday, December 27th, 2025. The Moon is very briefly in Al Batyn al Hut, the Belly if the Fish, at the beginning if December 27th. At 12:01am the Moon steps into the next Mansion, Alnath, the Butting One. Then, at 10:38pm the Moon moves into the next Mansion, Albotayn, the Little Belly. Then phase at the beginning of the day is Waxing Crescent, which supports works of beginning and laying foundations, but at 11:09am the Moon makes a square aspect with the Sun and the phase changes to Waxing Gibbous, which supports works of building and strengthening.

The Moon will travel through Alnath for 22 hours and 37 minutes. This is fast and it is 34 minutes less than the previous Mansion so the Moon is continuing to speed up. A fast Moon can make magic happen quickly but may also make magic fade quickly.

The beneficial powers of Al Batn al Hut include successful trade, productive crops, treatment of disease, traveler's safety, restoring relationships between spouses (Gayat al Hakim), increase harvests, travel safely, to gather fish in one place (Latin Picatrix), and create superior works and acts with excellent outcome (Shams al Marif).

The beneficial powers of Alnath include guarding against demolition and crushing (Ibn Hatim), travel safely, and improve the efficacy of laxative medicines (Gayat al Hakim, Latin Picatrix, and Agrippa).

The image in the Latin Picatrix for Alnath is a a black man with his hair wrapped and encircled, standing on his feet, having a spear in his right hand in the manner of a warrior. Alnath is a rather grim Mansion in which works of destruction are empowered.

The beneficial powers of Albotayn are assistance in digging wells, achieving wishes, and digging out buried treasure (Gayat al Hakim), meeting kings and getting everything you hope for (Ibn Hatim), dig for streams and wells, to find hidden treasures, and for the planting of a great deal of wheat, the removal of anger (Latin Picatrix), against the wrath of a prince (Agrippa), and to conjure spirits to reveal hidden treasure (Celestial Magic).

The image in the Latin Picatrix for Albotayn is a king on a throne. The approximate Chinese Seiu that corresponds to Albotayn is The Storeroom. Combined with the talismanic purposes of digging wells and finding hidden treasure, in my mind, the king is an underworld figure, a king in his sepulcher, surrounded by his riches. 

The Moon is in Albotayn at the end of December 27th.

Sunday, December 28th, 2025. The Moon is in Albotayn, the Little Belly, when December 28th begins. At 8:41pm the Moon moves into the next Mansion, Azoraye, the Many Little Ones. The phase is Waxing Gibbous, which supports works of addition and multiplication.

The Moon will transit Albotayn for 22 hours and 3 minutes. This is fast and it is 34 minutes less than the previous Mansion so the Moon is accelerating. A fast Moon can make magic happen quickly but may also make magic dissipate quickly.

The beneficial powers of Albotayn are assistance in digging wells, achieving wishes, and digging out buried treasure (Gayat al Hakim), meeting kings and getting everything you hope for (Ibn Hatim), dig for streams and wells, to find hidden treasures, and for the planting of a great deal of wheat, the removal of anger (Latin Picatrix), against the wrath of a prince (Agrippa), and to conjure spirits to reveal hidden treasure (Celestial Magic).

Combined with the talismanic purposes of digging wells and finding hidden treasure, in my mind, the king is an underworld figure, a king in his sepulcher, surrounded by his riches. 

The beneficial attributes of Azoraye are for love of a man and woman (Ibn Hatim), the safety of those who travel by sea, the beneficial use of chemistry and fire, for hunting, to promote friendship and love between spouses, and good luck (Gayat al Hakim), the acquisition of all good things, to sail safely and return safely, to complete the works of alchemy and all works done by fire, to hunt in the country, and to cause love between man and wife (Latin Picatrix), and for travel, associating with nobles, and curative medicines (Shams al Marif).

The image in the Latin Picatrix for Azoraye is a seated woman with her right hand above her head. Given the overwhelming positivity associated with this Mansion this is most likely a gesture of blessing. The traditional indicator stars for this Mansion are the Pleiades, the Seven Sisters, a grouping of stars with a long and legendary past. The Pleiades are one of the 15 Behenian stars whose powers include, according to Agrippa, "brings an increase to light of the eyes, collects daemons, promotes winds, and reveals secrets and hidden things." And the image is "a virgin girl or the figure of a torch".

The Moon is in Azoraye at the end of December 28th.

Lunar Mansion Report, December 15, 2025, to December 21, 2025

This is an entry in a continuing series of posts looking at the Moon's position and condition in the week ahead with an eye to the Mansions of the Moon. This is an exercise to help me track the speed of the Moon, organize my thoughts on the Mansions, and think about the practical applications. 

All times are for me locally, United States Pacific Time. I will be making note of the Moon's phase, speed, and Mansion position in my assessment. Currently, I'm not considering aspects with other planets.

Lunar Mansion Report, December 15, 2025 to December 21, 2025.

Monday, December 15th, 2025. The Moon is in Alichlil, the Crown of the Scorpion, when December 15th begins. At 1:11pm the Moon moves into the next Mansion, Alcalb, the Heart of the Scorpion. The phase is Waning Crescent which supports works of severance and cutting away. 

The Moon will travel through Alichlil for 26 hours and 1 minute. This is very slow and it is 16 minutes longer than the previous Mansion so the Moon continues to decelerate. A slow Moon may delay the effects of magic but may also prolong those effects. 

The wrathful aspects of Alichlil are expelling thieves (Ibn Hatim), improving deception, besieging cities (Latin Picatrix), and for making images for discord and any evil (Liber Lunae). Alichlil is the second half of the Via Combusta, the Fiery Way, which is detrimental to the Moon and lends power to its wrathful aspects.

The image of Aliklil in the Latin Picatrix is a monkey holding its hands up above its shoulders. I imagine this gesture to resemble a criminal putting their hands up at being apprehended. The monkey and its ability to imitate is a symbol for deception. 

The wrathful powers of Alcalb are creating disagreements between partners (Gayat al Hakim), to conspire against kings, and to wreak vengence (Latin Picatrix and Agrippa). There is also the power to expel serpents and hurtful beasts. The Latin Picatrix also ascribes the healing of fevers and ailments of the belly to his Mansion. In its wrathful state it could inflict these maladies. 

The image for Alcalb in the Latin Picatrix is an adder with its tail above its head. A venomous snake is dangerous enough but with its tail above its head it takes on the defensive qualities of a scorpion and so cannot be attacked from in front or in the rear.

The Moon is in Alcalb at the end if December 15th. 

Tuesday, December 16, 2025. The Moon is in Alcalb, the Heart if the Scorpion, when December 16th begins. At 3:15pm the Moon makes ingress into the next Mansion, Axaula, the Sting of the Scorpion. The phase is Waning Crescent, which is best for works of enmity and dread. 

The Moon will travel through Alcalb for 26 hours and 4 minutes. This is extremely slow and it is the slowest Mansion this cycle. The Moon has slowed down in this Mansion by an additional 3 minutes. A slow Moon may delay the effects of magic but may also make those effects more enduring.

The wrathful powers of Alcalb are creating disagreements between partners (Gayat al Hakim), to conspire against kings, and to wreak vengence (Latin Picatrix and Agrippa). There is also the power to expel serpents and hurtful beasts. The Latin Picatrix also ascribes the healing of fevers and ailments of the belly to his Mansion.

The image for Alcalb in the Latin Picatrix is an adder with its tail above its head. A venomous snake is dangerous enough but with its tail above its head it takes on the defensive qualities of a scorpion and so cannot be attacked from in front or in the rear.

The beneficial powers of Axaula are fullfilling wishes, for the welfare of a traveler, for the growth of crops, for releasing a slave and enabling him to escape his master (Ghayat al Hakim), and to improve the lot of men traveling by wagon through the countryside (Latin Picatrix).

The wrathful powers of Axaula are isolating cities, defeating enemies, making a person lose all his money, separation and alienation, breaking and destroying ships, creating discord between partners (Gayat al Hakim), to besiege cities and take them, to destroy the wealth of whoever you please, to expel men from a place, to separate and destroy the wealth of allies, to break and destroy ships (Latin Picatrix), and to annul contracts (Shams al Marif).

The image in the Latin Picatrix for Axaula is a woman with her hands covering her face. The special power of Axaula is as a purgative, especially to bring on menstrual bleeding. Repulsion, expulsion, and forceful pushing are all under the influence of Axaula. 

The Moon is in Axaula at the end of December 16th.

Wednesday, December 17th, 2025. The Moon is in Axaula, the Sting of the Scorpion, at the beginning of December 17th. At 5:17pm the Moon moves into the next Mansion, Alnaym, the Beam. The phase is Waning Crescent, which supports works of abrupt endings and destruction. 

The Moon will travel through Axaula for 26 hours and 2 minutes. This is very slow but it is 2 minutes less than the previous Mansion so the Moon has now begun to speed up. A slow Moon can delay the effects of magic but may also prolong those effects. 

The wrathful powers of Axaula are isolating cities, defeating enemies, making a person lose all his money, separation and alienation, breaking and destroying ships, creating discord between partners (Gayat al Hakim), to besiege cities and take them, to destroy the wealth of whoever you please, to expel men from a place, to separate and destroy the wealth of allies, to break and destroy ships (Latin Picatrix), and to annul contracts (Shams al Marif).

The image in the Latin Picatrix for Axaula is a woman with her hands covering her face. The special power of Axaula is as a purgative, especially to bring on menstrual bleeding. Repulsion, expulsion, and forceful pushing are all under the influence of Axaula. 

The wrathful powers of Alnaym include worsening the situation of partners (Gayat al Hakim), to bring evil and destruction to the riches of allies (Latin Picatrix), to bring about imprisonment and containment, and destroy ill-gotten gains (Celestial Magic).

The Moon is in Axaula at the end of December 17th.

Thursday, December 18th, 2025. The Moon is in Alnaym, the Beam, when December 18th begins. At 7:10pm the Moon moves into the next Mansion, Albelda, the Wasteland. The phase is Waning Crescent which supports works of obstruction and loss.

The Moon will travel through Alnaym for 25 hours and 53 minutes. This is slow but it is 9 minutes less than the previous Mansion so the Moon is speeding up. A slow Moon can delay the effects of magic but can also prolong those effects. 

The wrathful powers of Alnaym include worsening the situation of partners (Gayat al Hakim), to bring evil and destruction to the riches of allies (Latin Picatrix), to bring about imprisonment and containment, and destroy ill-gotten gains (Celestial Magic).

The image of Alnaym in the Latin Picatrix is a centaur shooting a bow. The power ascribed to it is for finding and taking whatever you hunt. It is also for taming wild beasts. 

The wrathful powers of Albelda are for a wife to divorce and never remarry (Gayat al Hakim), to separate wives from their proper husbands, destruction of a place (Latin Picatrix), for the destruction of a person (Agrippa), and creating enmity, hostility, divisiveness, and everything calamitous (Shams al Marif).

The image for Albelda in the Latin Picatrix is a man with a head like Janus, with one face on the front and another face on the back of the head. Janus was the Roman god of the threshold, the place in between, and marked passages. In my experience Albelda is a Mansion of waiting, holding, and immobility.

The Moon is in Albelda at the end of December 18th.

Friday, December 19th, 2025. The Moon is in Albelda, the Wasteland, when December 19th begins. At 8:52pm the Moon moves into the next Mansion, Sadahaca, the Lucky Star of the Slaughterers. The phase at the beginning of the day is Waning Crescent, which supports wrathful works of endings and removals. At 12:14am the Moon moves into within 8˚ of the Sun and this becomes combust which greatly enhances the wrathful qualities of this Mansion. At 5:43pm the Moon makes a conjunct aspect with the Sun and for about 90 seconds the Moon is cazimi which is extremely beneficial. The Moon then moves back into combust and remains wrathful for the rest of December 19th. 

The Moon will travel through Albelda for 25 hours and 42 minutes. This slow but it is 11 minutes less than the previous Mansion so the Moon is speeding up. A slow Moon can delay the effects of magic but can also make those effects last longer. 

The wrathful powers of Albelda are for a wife to divorce and never remarry (Gayat al Hakim), to separate wives from their proper husbands, destruction of a place (Latin Picatrix), for the destruction of a person (Agrippa), and creating enmity, hostility, divisiveness, and everything calamitous (Shams al Marif).

Janus was the Roman god of the threshold, the place in between, and marked passages. In my experience Albelda is a Mansion of waiting, holding, and immobility.

The wrathful powers of Sadahaca include separation between kings and wazirs (Ibn Hatim), separation of spouses and lovers, for a woman to be raped and discord between partners (Gayat al Hakim), to bind tongues against slander (Latin Picatrix), evil (Liber Luneae), and to agitate rulers into wrath and to hide secrets (Shams al Marif). 

The image for Sadahaca in the Latin Picatrix is "the figure of a man with winged feet wearing a helmet", a very Mercurial image. Considered together with the title of this Mansion, The Lucky Star of the Slaughterers, this Mansion has connotations of spiritual communication. The slaughterers are those who make the animal sacrifice to the gods. During this Mansion making entreaties to heaven and making offerings to seek favors and boons are greatly enhanced as are devotional acts of giving.

The Moon is in Sadahaca at the end of  December 19th. 

Saturday, December 20th, 2025. The Moon is in Sadahaca, the Lucky Star of the Slaughterers. At 10:19pm the Moon moves into the next Mansion, Zaadebola, the Lucky Star of the Devourers. The phase at the beginning of the day Waning Crescent but the Moon is combust which makes it wrathful. At 11:05am the Moon moves out of the 8˚ of the Sun and the Moon becomes beneficial. 

The Moon will travel through Sadahaca for 25 hours and 27 minutes. This is slow but it is 15 minutes less than the previous Mansion so the Moon is speeding up. A slow Moon can delay the effects of magic but can also prolong those effects. 

The wrathful powers of Sadahaca include separation between kings and wazirs (Ibn Hatim), separation of spouses and lovers, for a woman to be raped and discord between partners (Gayat al Hakim), to bind tongues against slander (Latin Picatrix), evil (Liber Luneae), and to agitate rulers into wrath and to hide secrets (Shams al Marif). 

The beneficial powers of Sadahaca include the treatment and recovery from disease, the release of captives (Ghayat al Hakim), cure illness, to cause goodwill between allies, to escape safely from enemies, secure against slander (Latin Picatrix), and liberation from restrictions or limits. (Celestial Magic).

During this Mansion making entreaties to heaven and making offerings to seek favors and boons are greatly enhanced as are devotional acts of giving.

The beneficial qualities of the Zaadebola include recovery from disease (Gayat al Hakim), join friends together (Latin Picatrix), liberty of captives (Agrippa), and evil's antidote (Shams al Marif).

The image for Zaadebola in the Latin Picatrix is a cat with a dog’s head. The head and the body are at odds, each wanting to do violence to the other. Ultimately, neither is left the winner. Pitting a group against its leaders for the purpose of destroying the entire group would be a wrathful work that is strengthened in this Mansion.

The Moon is in Zaadebola at the end of December 20th. 

Sunday, December 21st, 2025. The Moon is in Zaadebola, the Lucky Star of the Devourers, at the beginning of December 21st. At 11:30pm the Moon moves into the next Mansion, Caadezod, the Lucky Star of the Lucky. The phase is Waxing Crescent, which supports works of birth and renewal. 

The Moon will travel through Zaadebola for 25 hours and 11 minutes. This is slow but it is 16 minutes less than the previous Mansion so the Moon is speeding up. A slow Moon can delay the effects of magic but may also make those effects last longer.

The beneficial qualities of the Zaadebola include recovery from disease (Gayat al Hakim), join friends together (Latin Picatrix), liberty of captives (Agrippa), and evil's antidote (Shams al Marif).

The beneficial powers of Caadezod are improvement of cattle and herds (Ibn Hatim, Agrippa, and Latin Picatrix), increase merchandise and make a profit (Latin Picatrix), and victories to armies (Gayat al Hakim). 

The image in the Latin Picatrix is a woman breastfeeding a child. In most sources this Mansion is very beneficial. I associate this Mansion image with Amalthea, the nymph who hid and nursed baby Zeus until he was grown and strong enough to confront Saturn. This would suggest to me that keeping plans, projects, or conspiracies hidden from their intended target is accentuated when the Moon is in this Mansion.

The Moon is in Caadezod at the end of December 21st.
