23rd Lunar Day
P.P. Globa. What the Moon is Silent about
Symbolic correspondence: 25th degree of Sagittarius – 6th degree of Capricorn.
Action: devouring.
Names: chimera, Cerberus, crocodile, Makkara crocodile.
Symbol – Makkara crocodile, a bloodthirsty half-crocodile, half-fish, half-bird, half-snake that devours, grabs, and consumes everything; another symbol is Cerberus. The Chimera and Echidna are also close to this image.
Mystical influence: A day of repentance, where all forms of self-defense are practiced, including “mystical” ones, but only as possibilities rather than active training. One should suppress fear and anxiety. Laziness is contraindicated; sex and amorous games are prohibited as they may lead to a decline in strength. This is a very difficult period—one of the days of temptation. It is associated with violence, destruction of the old, and radical reform. On this day, a person easily unleashes instincts of conquest, insatiable appetite, a tendency toward delusion, fights, and adventures. The sexual energy of this day undermines health. It is a day of the rampage of vampires and bloodsuckers.
Social influence: Highly unfavorable, especially for communication in crowds or business conversations. Poor timing for court proceedings, particularly if attempting to condemn the innocent.
Household influence: Neutral for domestic matters, favorable for protective measures for the home, its arrangement, and cleaning. Neutral for travel, unfavorable for marriage.
This day symbolizes self-sacrifice, repentance, understanding, and forgiveness. It is dangerous to succumb to anger, gluttony, or cutting nails; surgical operations should be avoided; a sedentary lifestyle is not recommended.
This is a period of fasting, moderation, caution, and meticulousness, as well as acquiring strength and healing abilities. It is a day for protecting the home, during which cleaning and sprinkling with holy water, purifying thresholds with candle flames, and fumigating rooms with mugwort and caraway are recommended.
This day is also associated with persecution, pursuit, and banishment; one should avoid confrontations with angry crowds, resist provocations, and the temptation of revenge.
On the day of the crocodile, meat is excluded from the diet; dairy is recommended—drink more milk, eat cheese and other dairy products, bake cheese pies, and bake nuts into them.
Medical influence: A difficult day; illnesses are prolonged. Immunity and resistance to disease weaken. Sexual factors are exacerbated; all kinds of sexual problems intensify on this day. The spine should be the focus of attention: strengthening and health procedures for it are desirable.
People born on this day are characterized by tenacity, a “death grip,” and they bring any endeavor to absolute completion. They move through life like a bulldozer, demonstrating maturity and thoroughness in everything. If such individuals are oriented toward noble deeds, they become heavenly protectors and executioners, riders of justice.
People of the 23rd day often become true monks, though monasticism is not obligatory for all born on this day.
Influence on conception: It is difficult to discern where stinginess and self-love transition into genius and kindness. Children born on this day may have genetic mutations—idiots or unusual personalities. Everyone will perceive this person as different from who they truly are, yet great fame may await them.
Stones: rauchtopaz, black jade, crocodilite, sard.
Meditations: fortresses, training battles.
Signatures: black jade. Personal talismans.
O. Zarayev. “Interpretation of Lunar Days”
This is a dual and sometimes contradictory period, so any agreements and obligations made during this time should be tested for stability and require some reconsideration. It is not advisable to start new ventures and projects now; instead, it is best to bring ongoing ones to completion. In the second half of the lunar day, partnership relationships may be marked by envy, jealousy, as well as issues related to unfulfilled desires or expectations.
“Days from the Birth of the Moon” by Albert the Great
A day favorable for achieving honor. Illnesses are prolonged but not dangerous. Dreams are empty. Children are unattractive.
T. M. Zyurnyaeva. “30 Lunar Days. Everything About Each Day. Lunar Calendar.”
Symbol: “Makkara Crocodile,” a bloodthirsty half-crocodile, half-fish, half-snake that devours, grabs, and consumes you. Another symbol is Cerberus; the Chimera and Echidna are close to this image.
A very complex day, a day of temptation, the rampage of vampires and bloodsuckers. It is harmful to doubt one’s chosen path; it is better to reflect on these questions on another day. One should convince oneself of the correctness of their path, practice repentance, forgiveness, and self-sacrifice.
On the 23rd lunar day, sexual moderation is advised; this is the second day of prohibition, like the 15th, while other days have restrictions but not as strict.
Dairy foods are recommended, with cheese pies with nuts being ideal.
The 23rd day is also a day for cleansing the home and bringing sacred objects into it. It can be purified with fire, holy water, or fumigated with mugwort. Placing black flint on the threshold is highly beneficial.
Proper use of the energy of the 23rd day reveals a person’s healing abilities. On this day, cleansing, health-improving, and preventive procedures should be performed.
Overeating and anger are prohibited; cutting hair and nails should be avoided, as should surgical operations. Any separation of parts of the body on this day serves as food for vampires. Vampires most often attach themselves to bones. If your bones ache or burn (the back of the leg from the outside relates to Aquarius), it means a vampire has attached itself. You can free yourself by focusing and mentally tearing it off like a leech.
If you feel burning or heaviness in this area on another day, do the same, and you will feel immediate relief. Vampires and bloodsuckers usually latch onto bones or the neck (on other days).
On this day, a sedentary lifestyle should be avoided; one should try to move as much as possible. All events that occur on this day should be examined for temptation, and one should not succumb to provocations that may evoke negative emotions. Revenge is especially dangerous. If you take revenge on someone, it may rebound against you.
The 23rd lunar day is associated with the spine. Practices involving the spine and manual therapy are recommended. It is favorable to perform mutual “dry jumps” (one person sits on another’s back and jumps). This cleanses the blood in the spine. You can also jump over another person’s bent back; the person bends, and pressure is applied to the spine, which may even realign vertebrae. This day is associated with the Muladhara chakra.
If a person misuses the energy of the day, boils may appear on the body, indicating where a vampire has bitten. The appearance of a boil or even a small sore on such a day is a sign of this.
People born on the 23rd lunar day vary. Those living by a high program become heavenly protectors and true monks. People who do not develop spiritually are distinguished by an extremely strong grip; they also possess these energies and know how to approach and charm a person.
People born on this day should not doubt their chosen path and must always see things through to the end.
On the 23rd lunar day, everyone must practice confidence and persistence to avoid becoming a victim of vampires.
