The Sag Moon is its unadulterated, Sadge-y self (and that means expansive, curious, pushing out toward new things, experiences, and people–though it does sit from 10 AM PDT to 12:30 PM or so at the midpoint of Pluto/ Venus, offering a stark, fleeting, and radical emotional picture of the ways change may alter love, money, or assets) until late in the 2 PM hour PDT when it sextiles Saturn and squares Mercury. This may make us too quick to cement awkward conditions or agree to what’s communicated, probably at least in part out of relief that the retro’s over!

9:30 PM-ish the Sag Moon quincunxes the South Node, bringing a fit of nostalgia, regret, or, for some, emotional or intuitive knowledge of something in the past that had not been clear until now–a revelation that allows some pieces that didn’t fit before to fall into place.

Tight groupings of energies mean that the Moon passes through considerable spans without contact–and a Sagittarius Moon, fresh off a Merc Direction, means we seek knowledge and reach out in search of new perspectives–there’s a thirst for what’s new, and the danger is we are too quick to accept ‘new’ information, ‘new’ knowledge, and to change views or act on it without sufficient vetting. We have a long period of this through about 8 PM PDT on the 14th, when the Moon forms a T-square with the Sun/ Earth axis–tension, assumptions gone wrong, new revelations, and emotional confrontation (internal or external) are the result.

The Moon conjuncts Ceres at 3:30 AM PDT on the 15th, and we get a solid glimpse of our own power in the broadest sense–we see how and in what ways we can reach out or share knowledge or assets at our most natural–and caring for/ nurturing others will be on the agenda for some, with a test of authority or boundaries for others.

 It’s a couple of days of, in some ways, testing the limits, but these are mostly the limits we’ve been placing on our own perspectives; with the directions of Merc and Pluto we may feel an opening up–cautions are found here http://dogandsunflower.wordpress.com/new-summer-2010-eclipse/ along with info on Venus Retrograde, the upcoming Aries Point Full Moon, the creative complex, and so much more!
