4th Lunar Day
P.P. Globa. What the Moon is Silent about
Symbolic correspondence: 7th – 18th degrees of Taurus.
Anatomical correspondence: throat, Adam’s apple.
Action memory.
Names: Tree of Knowledge, Adam’s Apple, AUM.
Symbol – Tree of Knowledge, the choice between good and evil.
This day is best spent in solitude; one should think ten times before making a decision. It is the first of the unfavorable days and carries a dual nature: it is both positive and negative, containing evil within. In Western European astrology, it is considered the day of the Fall of Man, who tasted from the Tree of Knowledge—hence the symbol of the Adam’s apple stuck in the throat.
Social influence: Poor for group matters. Otherwise neutral.
Household influence: Slightly favorable if everything is well thought out. Good for spinning, working with thread, tending to a flower garden, and walking in nature. Long-lost items may resurface. A good day for trade, bad for travel.
Medical influence: Severe illnesses.
Mystical influence: Any activity must be carefully considered. A day for working with the voice—showcasing singing, recitation, etc. A day of remembrance and prayer. Tangled hair or threads may serve as an unfavorable sign.
It is best to spend this day alone and avoid hasty decisions; everything must be thoroughly weighed first. Focus on singing sacred hymns. Group work is contraindicated; avoid picking flowers or chopping trees. Good activities include spinning, walking in the forest, and untangling threads. If threads or tangled hair appear in dreams the night before, abandon any planned undertakings.
Influence on the born: Highly dependent on upbringing and heredity. Their main flaw is egoism, arising primarily from a sense of security. People born on this day carry a secret within themselves, perhaps even unknown to themselves.
Those born on this day are bearers of a cosmic mystery; it is desirable for each to intuitively uncover this mystery within themselves.
Influence on conception: Birthday. Someone from your ancestors may return to your family. A tender child may be born, but they may grow up lazy.
Stones: sardonyx, amazonite (brings joy to the home), green jade.
Meditations: Voice.
Signatures: green jade, sardonyx, amazonite.
O. Zaraev. “Interpretation of Lunar Days”
The first half of this lunar day is favorable, bringing inner balance and enhancing the ability to connect with others. It is a good day for trade, any risky ventures, opening new opportunities, and favorable prospects in life. However, the second half may hinder positive trends and only reveal the hidden schemes of adversaries.
“The Days from the Birth of the Moon” by Albert the Great
A lucky day for any enterprise and finding lost items. Good dreams come true, while bad ones do not. A child born on this day will be cheerful.
T.M. Zyurnyaeva. “30 Lunar Days. Everything About Each Day. Lunar Calendar.”
Symbols – “Tree of Knowledge” and “AUM.”
This day continues the process of choosing between good and evil. Solitude is not recommended. Good activities include walking in the forest, planting, and recalling traditions. Everything should promote conscious choices between good and evil, made at three levels—thought, word, and deed. All three must be under control. Verbal magic, such as reciting and singing sacred hymns, mantras, and prayers, can aid in making the right choice. Spinning and untangling threads are beneficial, helping to resolve karmic knots and separate good from evil.
Avoid making unconsidered decisions. Large groups and collective work are unfavorable. Do not pick flowers or chop trees on this day.
On the 4th lunar day, a person may receive protection from an egregore. This happens when we recall life events and learn from them. By making the right choice and properly assessing a heavy burden, we transform and gain egregore protection.
Staying with family and communicating with the elements (fire, water, earth, air) is very favorable. The magical action of the 4th lunar day is kneading bread. Bread is a special product—it embodies much labor and the energy of many people. It symbolizes good and unity; a bun is a symbol of the Sun.
This day is also called “AUM,” so pronouncing sounds on this day is beneficial, though the sound “AUM” is intended for the mental body. Since the mental body governs the astral and physical, its good state benefits all others. You can chant sounds and mantras for all three bodies.
The 4th lunar day is associated with the Vishuddha chakra, the throat. If a person does not use this energy as intended, they may suffer from osteochondrosis—they have not made their choice.
People born on the 4th lunar day inherently carry this energy; every word they speak is verbal magic, and every word is significant. Therefore, it is better for them to remain silent—their words always carry consequences. Such people are bearers of a cosmic mystery, which they can only uncover through inner self-awareness. Their life’s task is to decipher this mystery.
