18th lunar day

General description

The names of this day are Mirror, Monkey, Ice, and Aspid. Aspid is one of the vampires. This day is not considered to be very good. It represents the cognition of man, the process of anthropogenesis. It means that a person, after gaining inner harmony, is able to realize himself, his development, and what he is. Every person has a mirror in which they see the world. And by what happens to us on the 18th lunar day, we will be able to assess what kind of mirror we have: crooked, enlarging, diminishing, or even a fragment that distorts reality.
Everything that happens to us on this day is a reflection of our essence. Our reactions will also indicate this: what we react to positively and what we react to negatively. But still, we should evaluate any situation as a reflection of our essence. Our life is what we perceive it to be and how we react to it. The only way to change something is to change the way we react to life.
The events of the 18th lunar day are a reflection of our complexes and actions. It is imperative to control our thoughts. We not only have to take care of ourselves on this day, but also have to help other people in this process, because our actions towards another will be the same mirror for another person.
The 18th lunar day is a day of help and protection, so you should sleep less on this day. It is favorable to fast and cleanse the intestines. If you are drawn to going to bed early, this is a signal that you are being excluded from conscious work. As soon as you start working with lunar days, you will immediately be interfered with, but you must overcome it. As soon as a person makes a conscious choice for good, the dark forces are armed against them.
On this day, it’s good to go to the bathhouse, cleanse your skin, and it’s favorable to do individual ablutions, especially if the Moon is in Aquarius or another air sign. It is good to have massages. Do not show arrogance, selfishness, or negative emotions. It is not recommended to eat animal food, tobacco and alcohol; it is good to eat nuts and vegetable oil.
This day is associated with the kidneys and the Swadhisthana chakra, which is located above the pubis and produces the universal energy of Udana, which is used for the development of higher centers. Therefore, the process of human subconsciousness can also go through sexual energy and Udana energy. It is useful to cleanse the kidneys.
If you use this energy incorrectly, then you will have obstacles that day, attempts to lead you astray and seduce you.
At night, you may have nightmares if you do not try to recognize yourself. This can also affect your skin condition: skin rashes, even eczema. Purulent wounds may open on this day.
People born on the 18th lunar day are different, and it all depends on their spiritual choice. Those who are ready to realize their actions and live wisely are the people who see the world as it is. And because they have the right idea of the world, they are able to guide other people.
If such a person gives you advice that day, you should listen to it. Such people can be healers (from the word “whole”, to help a person become whole). They have a clean, straightforward mirror, and are always ready to help others.
People who don’t work on themselves are prone to acting. On the monkey day, they can imitate other people, like to turn everything around, they have a crooked mirror in their eye. Often they are obsessed and impose their wrong vision of the world on others. They are very dangerous, you need to recognize such people. When talking to such a person, be careful, because they distort the meaning of your words, because they are not able to understand you.

Dreams

Dreams of a given lunar day should be perceived as a mirror, as a reflection of who we are at the moment. The discrepancy between our real image and the dream image indicates a violation of the harmony of our being, a disconnect between desire and reality, and the fact that we are unable to realize our integrity. And because of this, our duality (duality) makes our life unhappy.
If you correctly interpret the dream symbols of a given lunar period, you can clearly understand what we need to work on to achieve harmony. So, for example, if in life you are a quiet and calm person and in dreams you appear in the image of a terrible villain or monster, it means that in reality you need to show more activity, aggression, you are afraid of your true nature and are quiet not because this is your character, but because of fear of not being in a winning situation, you are afraid to seem ridiculous, afraid to lose.
You need to activate your other half, and then “good” and “evil” will merge into a harmonious union. You will react adequately to any event – where necessary, you will show calmness, and where necessary, assertiveness.

Health

Herbal tea with turmeric and cinnamon is very useful during this period. Much attention should be paid to the condition of the skin – conduct light massage sessions using oils or sandalwood paste. In addition, this is a favorable time for applying masks, lotions, compresses, and taking herbal baths.
If you are at sea or working outdoors on the eighteenth lunar day, be careful because the skin, which is very sensitive during this period, can easily get burned by direct sunlight. Try to stay in the shade more or use a special cream.

Sex

Sex during this period should be calm, slow and not active. Erotic massage combined with oral sex is ideal, not so much intercourse.
One of the astrological schools warns: make sure that during love games your bodies are not reflected in a mirror or any other mirror surface. It is believed that in this case, the souls of lovers will be stolen by a demon of debauchery, and then the man will turn into an incubus, and the woman into a succubus.

Food

All astrological schools strongly recommend that you limit yourself to drinking alcohol, especially vodka. If you do drink alcoholic beverages, then only wine. Champagne can also give a completely unexpected result on the eighteenth lunar day.
Your menu should include as many nuts as possible – almonds, walnuts, pine nuts, peanuts, hazelnuts, and the like. You can eat meat, but in small quantities.
Listen carefully to your body, to its desires, it may happen that today you want some special product. If such a desire arises, be sure to satisfy it.

Business

In business, the eighteenth lunar day is usually a completely unproductive period, nothing happens either for the better or for the worse. Only you change, only your attitude to your company and your financial transactions.
On this day, you need to remain calm and collected, paying more attention to the nuances and completely insignificant things, because it is in them that either your further prosperity or decline and collapse lies. As the great Goethe said: “A great man is recognized in the little things.”
On the eighteenth lunar day, there is no such thing as insignificant, everything is of the utmost importance, especially when it comes to signing important documents and concluding contracts.
Pay close attention to the seemingly insignificant clauses of your contracts, read them carefully, because it is highly likely that a small line in the contract can cause you a lot of trouble later.
In communication, both with subordinates and superiors, make sure not to “say too much”, control your intonations, as people on the eighteenth lunar day tend to exaggerate the significance of certain actions, especially words addressed to them. Otherwise, it will be difficult to prove to the offended person that you did not mean to offend them. And, of course, do not be offensive yourself, treat everything and everyone with understanding and patience.

Divination

You can only ask the oracle on this lunar day about topics related to your inner world. All other questions will receive vague and, as a rule, contradictory answers.
Many astrologers warn that on the eighteenth lunar day it is best to refrain from any type of divination that uses mirrors or reflective surfaces, as well as various crystals, because during this period, a harmful astral entity can penetrate our world through them and cause a lot of trouble.
Divination “King Solomon’s Circle”
This is a very ancient divination attributed to the legendary wise King Solomon.
On thick paper, using a compass, draw a circle with a radius of 2-3 centimeters and, without shifting the center, draw nine concentric circles, each time increasing their radius by 1-2 centimeters.
Divide the circle into thirteen sectors by drawing straight lines from the center, like diverging rays. Shade the central circle with a radius of 2-3 centimeters, and write the numbers from 1 to 100 in order in the resulting cells, starting from the center at the top and moving clockwise. In this case, several cells in the outer circle will remain empty.
Take any seed and throw it on the circle. The square with the number on which the grain falls will indicate the prediction.
