>Still in torture chamber

So I looked up what happened astrologically the day before, and it was a New Moon. 

I also did a birth chart for Thursday, 2014-01-30 at 11:30pm in Washinton, DC, because John appeared to have been in DC (asking people if they were still in town, etc), and Tony's house is in Kalorama, a neighborhood in DC.

Key points are Pluto conjunct Venus (Pluto amplifies Venus's sexual/sensual), Pluto/Venus opposed to Jupiter, and Uranus in square with those.  Thursday is Jupiter.  Friday is Venus.  I am not good at astrology, sorry. 

But here's a fucking thread where /r/occult talks about the ritual implications of a New Moon:

>How do I use this magickally?  I know aversive magick is stronger when the moon is waning and vice versa, but what are the properties of the full and new moon? 

And independently sourced by a question:

>I've had alot of luck with New Moon spell casting, more so than any other kind.  I typically look at what sign the new moon is in (next on is Sagittarius) and plan a new cycle that correlates to that sign...

The moon is in Aquarius.  I dunno. 

According to several Satanists, the New Moon can be a source of power, and can be used with specific dates in mind:

>[...] there is more magical energy during a full moon and a new moon than there is at other time and this does benefit by increasing the energy force available however, Satan nor Demons are bound to “full moon arrivals” and are free to manifest as they desire.

>c. February 1 and 2 - Candlemas and Imbolg, a.k.a.  Groundhog's Day.  One of the Illuminati's Human Sacrifice Nights

>d. February 14 - Valentine's Day

I see dates floating around the end of January for a sacrifice date.  Jan 29th is St Agnes Eve, having to do with love.  My experience is any occultist worth his salt will time his rituals based on astrological events.
