≈ Comments Off on Just a Little Essence for Today 31 October 2011: ‘A Little More Power’
'Medieval Women as Warriors' Artist unknown {{PD-Art}}
It’s a day light on Lunar aspects, but I can share this tidbit:
1:30 PM PDT the Capricorn Moon sextiles Ceres; we see aid from those in authority (or we are just able to get along with them!) or Mother Nature gives us a boost, or our negotiations go well. We in some way get a little more power in one or more arenas.

Void begins at 4:50 AM Pacific time; the Moon enters Sagittarius at 7:45 AM PDT. A sextile to Pallas and square to Chiron kick things off in the sign of the archer; we feel smart! and yet vulnerable, and very aware of our wound and our weakness. This kind of influence can prompt some to bluster and others to retreat into ‘what I know,’ and still others may head for the emotional hills. None of these is a particularly effective way to meet things, but our reaction does tell us quite clearly what stresses we are under and where our weak spots lie–and it’s always good to be informed, especially under a Sag Moon!

4 PM PDT the Moon quincunxes the exact Earth/ Jupiter conjunction and semi-sextiles Pluto. This is very much a social awareness aspect, with concurrent urges to transform, destroy, or grab power observed or acted on. We see the consequences of the social order on the material situation, and we are prepared, to some extent, to do something about it. Just don’t be Self-destructive in the process; this is the kind of influence that pushes people into quitting their job or vandalizing corporate property in an ‘I’ll show them!’ frame of mind, when the only fruitful actions will spring from an awareness that the social order cares not for the individual.

'Happy Age! Golden Age' by Watteau c1718 {{PD-Art}}
9 AM PDT the Scorpio Moon trines Ceres; we can get authorities, nature, or Mom on our side, probably by making an emotional appeal. Good for presentations and negotiations, as long as we can be relatable in what we show of ourselves.
7 PM PDT the Moon conjuncts Mercury, and this dynamic duo create a T square with an opposition to Sedna and square to Mars. With Mars in the ‘arm’ of the configuration, we see the emotions drive talk/ communication almost compulsively and we are unaware of what we’re communicating! And this, in some way, causes us to act, possibly in defense of the ego or identity (Leo) Remember the saying, ‘Silence is golden’? In this case, it really is.

Blake's 'Red Dragon' {{PD-Art}}
The New Moon in Scorpio occurs at 12:54 PM PDT of the 26th at 3 Scorpio 02. I’m making the orb a little bigger this time; we’ll say a full 3 degrees, as there are just too many bodies gathered so close to aspect–and that makes me think they’re straining to be heard in this New Moon configuration. That means the Moon/ Sun combo is conjunct Juno and opposed Jupiter, quincunxes Uranus and trines Chiron, and sextiles Pluto. It’s all about power, power specifically derived either through relationship or through one’s status and the friction this relationship or status generates–it’s the birth of strong, powerful, and perhaps vengeful urges–that will definitely, radically, change, and likely heal, things. This New Moon brings forward a dark, beautiful heart that rises from the ashes of previous clashes, upsets, and confrontations, renewed in Scorpio.

≈ Comments Off on Just a Little Essence for Today 25 October 2011: ‘Feeling Our Way Along’
'Road in Maine' Hopper 1914 {{PD-Art}}
6 PM PDT sees the Libra Moon conjunct Saturn and sextile Mars, and this is followed (just before 8 PM PDT) with the Moon quincunx Sedna. This could make for a very difficult scenario, where we are subdued emotionally, but must act–and then we will be unable to know how we feel about this. If we are able to see things through a mental lens, we will be fine–it’s only those who want to feel their way along who will suddenly find themselves lost and disconnected from the feeling nature, and so from the emotional ‘antenna’ they may be over-using.

Bidau 1888 {{PD-Art}}
Void begins 8:12 AM PDT. The Moon enters Libra at 8:49 AM PDT. Right away our Libra Moon creates a Finger of God–Libra just has to weigh it out!–with a base of Chiron and Earth. What has wounded us on a material plane (physically to the body, in matters of finance or possessions, or in the actual material/ physical situation we find ourselves in) must be accepted, reconciled, or made peace with–once that happens we are given the emotional balance and the co-operative attitude (or a partner is quite literally presented) to aid or change that wounding material situation. It’s very Chirotic, in that we must accept, even embrace, the hurt before we have a hope of healing the hurt. Do address this–it provides a major opportunity to gain emotional equilibrium.
Coming up on 5 PM PDT, the Moon quincunxes Jupiter and squares Pluto. The Jupiter/ Pluto trine brings massive opportunity for change, and contact from the Moon offers two options: we can use the emotions as a guide to where to adjust our attitudes to reaching out/ sharing knowledge/ or the social scene (Jupiter) and to sort out what ‘dark,’ secret, or transformative thing we are in conflict with (Pluto); or, we can use the intuition for these same tasks. We should choose the one that works most effectively for us–and at the same time, we should vow to make Truth the baseline against which this all plays out. If we do, we can make some surprising major discoveries about ourselves and our place in the social order, and in the Universe.
Remember, we’ve already entered the Dark of the Moon; no big new starts, encourage flexibility in your approach, and take a meditative stance with all that comes at you–it’s more a time for internal revelation and reflection than for assertive action.

6 AM PDT sees the Leo Moon square Venus and trine North Node, which may bring inevitable emotional conflict meant to drive us in our destined direction. This could materialize a major event or change that sets things on an unexpected course; endings or beginnings would not be a surprising result at this time.
1 PM Pacific the Moon conjuncts Mars–this may be like a lightning strike to the heart. We are likely to be enveloped in our own feelings at this time, feelings about our identity, role, or purpose, and in Fire we may be prompted toward taking consuming action that may not leave room for much else. Could make for intense distraction from the scene at hand–navigate with caution.

'The Fortune Teller' de la Tour c1636 {{PD-Art}}
8:30 AM PDT the Cancer Moon squares Saturn, perhaps stopping us dead in our tracks; or, the Universe presents obstacles and our first reaction is to bash our head against the wall, trying to get through! Conflict between our feelings and some Saturnian thing (authorities, rules, our own fears?) is inevitable. Navigate with care, and yet don’t spend too much energy in resistance–it’s a matter where patiently walking around the wall is a lot more effective than trying to push it down on your own.
Just after 11 PM PDT we hit a jackpot, of sorts: the Moon squares Juno, opposes Pallas, and quincunxes Neptune. Will we be sucked into a power struggle despite our better judgment, deluded about how another may threaten empowerment? Or will we be fighting for status based on an illusory idea of who may bestow it? Or will we be feeling powerless, projecting the wisdom that shows a way out on someone else, based on our image of them? Well, none of those sound very fun–let’s instead look at how our emotional approach to someone or something may be not only unwise but keeping us from our own empowerment in the matter. The illusion can be pierced at this time–that would be a much better way to spend our time and energy pennies

8 AM the Moon trines Mercury, and we get the message we’ve been waiting for–now can we translate it? This is necessary as it will be sent and received on an emotional frequency, or we’ll intuit information ‘broadcast’ by another via our emotional connection–in any case, informative, if we can set aside our emotional prejudices and accept the information untainted.
5:30 PM PDT the Moon trines Venus. A Watery trine feels so good! Just don’t let the feeling turn into money or love slipping through your fingers like water, ’cause you’re so blissed out you forget to take others, or priorities, into account. This begins a rather wide Grand Trine connection among the Moon, Venus, and Ceres. This Grand Trine amps up the feeling sensibilities until they may resonate like an enormous tuning fork! I know, a weird analogy, but one that describes the overwhelming intensity of the feeling nature at this time–it’s what I imagine angels singing to sound like! The connection to nature, maternal instincts, and love can be profound–this can be an amazing time for an elevated dining experience, an emotional meeting (especially something like a ‘I’ve been looking for my biological mother and now we’re meeting at Starbucks!’ kind of get-together), or true communion with a loved one.

Around 11 AM Pacific the Gemini Moon creates a Grand Trine in Air with arms of Juno in Libra and Neptune in Aquarius. We are empowered to create–and this is so no matter what we’re doing–it’s a ‘think it and you can make it’ aspect. Use this well and wisely! Optimists who are also willing to do will likely get better results than pessimists or unfettered dreamers, both of whom typically have trouble making actual moves toward their goals in the physical world. Liveliest matters are likely to be found in the Houses where these bodies are placed, and with any natal placements they affect, at roughly 25-29 degrees of an Air sign (Libra, Gemini, Aquarius).
8:30 PM PDT the Cancer Moon squares Uranus; hey! where’d all that rebellion come from? It may be a reaction to what we don’t want to heal just yet–we must admit, sometimes we are more comfortable holding on to our anger, resentment, or hurt–but if this is you, please consider giving it up for a happier life.
