Happy Lughnassadh and happy Imbolc - July 31 to August 2
Happy Lughnassadh, the first harvest in the Northern hemisphere, often celebrated between July 31 at sunset and August 2 sunset. It is mirrored in the southern world at the same time by the festival Imbolc, the first stirrings of new life as the land awakes after winter when the goddess Brigit or Brighid melts the cold with her willow wand and candles blaze in her honour....
Welcome to Cassandra's Well of Wisdom
Welcome to August 2026
Welcome to August, known as the lucky month. Named after the Roman Emperor Augustus Caesar, because a number of lucky events in his life happened in August, it became regarded as a fortunate month for Rome, because during that month, Augustus Caesar three times entered Rome in triumph and Egypt was brought under the authority of the Roman people after Augustus Caesar defeated Mark Antony and Cleopatra.
The popular boys’ name Augustus comes from the Latin word Augustus which means great and worthy of respect and Augusta, the distinguished woman bound for greatness.
August in the modern world is regarded as a good month for reversing bad luck or loss, for gaining opportunities previously denied and the opening of doors that have been closed; for learning healing techniques and starting fitness regimes, for the fulfilment of earlier plans and projects that were delayed, for getting what is owed and finding or recovering what is lost.
Flowers of August. Its special flowers are the Gladiolus and the Poppy. The gladiolus, or ‘sword lily,’ represents loving remembrance of people who have passed away as well as recalling kind deeds done by the living as well as our beloved ancestors and also signifies calm and integrity. In the Language of Flowers, the Gladiolus indicates that the heart is being pierced with love and therefore the flower suggests that lovers should be careful to avoid infatuation, unwise temptations, obsessive love and of holding on to love that is destructive or is over with no chance of revival. The other flower of August is the poppy. The red poppy is mainly associated with Remembrance Day on November 11, but in August signifies pleasure, the white poppy lasting peace and consolation after loss while the yellow poppy brings the fulfilment of wishes for abundance and success.
Crystals for bringing good luck in August Jade, peridot, moss agate and opal.
The August Angel is Hamaliel, the Perfectionist, surrounded by misty forest green. Qualities Hamaliel encourages are: going the extra mile for perfection, attention to detail, persevering with routine but necessary tasks through to the end and reliability. She also advocates reorganizing the home or workplace to make it more efficient, trying new health supplements and alternative treatments especially where conventional medicine is not working, starting a new budget and dealing with crises old and ongoing logically and without panicking rather than burying our heads in the sand or running around like a headless chicken. Her challenges are avoiding fussing over nothing, hypochondria, becoming over obsessed by details and missing the bigger picture, setting yourself impossible targets and refusing to accept anything or anyone less than perfect; trying to force children or partners along a road which may not be right for them.
An August Ritual for amazing good luck
You will need:
A lucky charm, medallion or favourite jewellery or crystal. Green aventurine is especially lucky.
An incense stick in a holder, preferably in a flower fragrance.
A small dish of salt.
A green candle.
A dish of soil.
Timing:
Any Saturday in August, the day of Cassiel the Archangel who brings good fortune or any time in the year for turning around luck.
The Ritual:
- Place the charm, jewellery or crystal in front of the candle.
- Light the green candle and say, Good luck be mine.
- Sprinkle a pinch of salt into the candle and say, Burn bright and light the way to amazing good fortune.
- Light the incense from the candle and, holding it in your hand like a smoke pen, write in circles in the air round the charm, Good luck be mine and say the words at the same time.
- Write and speak faster and faster even if the letters are jumbling and when you can write and speak no faster, plunge the burning end of the incense stick into the soil and say, Good luck is mine.
- Let the candle burn through and then wear or carry the charm, jewellery or crystal and keep it with any lottery tickets or whenever you need good luck, saying the words Good luck is mine as you touch it.
- Tip away the remaining salt under a running tap repeating, Good luck is mine and crush the incense stick and bury it in the soil in a plant pot or the garden.
May your August be filled with good fortune.
