Just a Little Lunar Essence 10 October 2013: Who We Are Now

We begin the 10th with a Sagittarius Moon, and a Void that begins at 3:12 AM PDT and ends at 8:18 AM PDT with the Moon’s entry into Capricorn. 1 PM PDT the Moon sextiles Neptune and semi-sextiles Venus. This may help soften what can be a harsh take-down of a dream, a fantasy, or even a relationship, as the emotional sensitivities are rallied in support of that dream or ideal. We may have been disabused of something unreal at its core, but this contact allows us to intuit or to feel the reason it was necessary to see the truth of things. Just after 3 PM PDT the Moon hits the midpoint of Venus-Juno; again, a situation that starts out as female rivalries or that confronts status issues or the costs and benefits of empowerment options can be smoothed over with a little intuitive understanding. 11 PM PDT the Moon conjuncts Pluto and sextiles Chiron. It’s the urge to purge in an attempt to heal ourselves or others–but think carefully before indulging; as much harm as good can come from ‘getting it all off our chest’. Emotional changes instituted internally can heal long-standing issues–it’s interactions where we must be sensitive.

Today’s image is an old, floppy stuffed animal, sitting in a neglected golf club bag, in a dark, dusty corner of a closet. We all have things around the house that have fallen into disuse, sometimes because their time with us is past, sometimes because we have changed how we spend our time–yet we keep these things, not really thinking about them, not really noticing they’re there. It’s time to let go of some things we claim we’ll get back to ‘one of these days’; it’s also time to recognize that some things are better given to others, for whom they’ll be meaningful and bring joy. What we rid ourselves of today may be figurative or material, but ideally it will be both: this is our opportunity to let go of old things, and old patterns, not for the purpose of filling these spaces with new stuff, but to provide space to move, to breathe, to live, to remove the clutter that keeps us from fully being who we are now.

Just a Little AstroEssence 9 October 2013: Almost Magical

From ECLIPSE:

9 October and we’re back to that almost magical atmosphere, where our ambitions and wants are guided by wisdom (and so likely attainable) and the social sphere, knowledge, or our philosophy support our power expression and exertion of authority–and so bring us what we desire. Power players and/ or authorities help out. Plan things for today that you might’ve been tempted to see as impossible–and then watch them happen (as long, that is, as you employ the right skills for the right job–if we don’t have them, the thing is to employ what we do have skills for, as this is what will be both ‘magical’ and available at this time). (Pallas sextile Zeus, Jupiter sextile Ceres)

Just a Little AstroEssence 8 October 2013: Sing At Your Own Risk

8 October wow, we open our mouths and who the heck knows what’s going to come out!? Whatever it is that we hear or communicate, we all take as set in stone–an unfortunate result, since so much shared today will come as a complete surprise to everyone! Keeping options open means keeping mouths (and keyboard keys, and text messaging, and phones) silent, but this isn’t necessary, as long as you are prepared to follow through on what goes down today, because you will certainly be held accountable and expected to stick by your words. The thing is, everyone’s ambitions are on display today for the world to see, so those who are honest with themselves and others will have a much easier time than those who suffer because they hoped to keep their true aims or desires a secret.

Just a Little AstroEssence 7 October 2013: Get Out of the Way

7 October we may be our own worst enemy today; even our own ego urges are too demanding, pushing us to rebel and throw caution to the winds. We may be inconsolably restless, believing that the thing we long for is just over the next horizon, and it’s all too easy to speak thoughtlessly and cause harm. Rein yourself in, even a teensy bit, and you can be the author of some healing thoughts, words, and plans, spreading the light of wisdom applied, and helping to soothe those too distressed to get out of their own way. (Mars sesquiquadrate Uranus, Venus enters Sagittarius and semi-squares Zeus, Mercury trine Chiron)

'Puck and Fairies from 'A Midsummer Night's Dream'' Joseph Noel Paton c1850 {{PD-Art}}

‘Puck and Fairies from ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream” Joseph Noel Paton c1850 {{PD-Art}}

From the current issue of ECLIPSE:

28 September our dreams or delusions may be challenged by the social sphere or by our own need to expand or reach out; either way, we may end up defending those Neptunian constructs, but before you do, ask yourself if it might not be better to just let them go–it comes down to whether you are truly benefiting from them, or whether they are running on sheer Willpower or ego–if the latter, let them go and move on. The most positive thing we can do will be to think about how ‘natural’ that dream is to our sense of who we are.

The Moon’s Void begins at 12:32 AM of the 29th; the Moon enters Leo at 12:58 AM PDT.Ā And at 8 PM PDT of the 29th the Moon conjuncts Pallas, squares Saturn, trines Uranus, and forms the apex (with Pallas) to a Finger of God with base of Pluto-Chiron. This is about recognizing reality and being responsive enough to it (through innovation, originality, or spontaneity) to make healing changes that are both smart and emotionally empowering; these changes might also open the intuitive channels and ‘let the signal through’. A huge opportunity to ‘tune in’ and get a lot right.

25 September communications are better (than yesterday), though somehow unavoidably hurtful–it’s like everywhere the mind goes has been sown with sharp reminders of our own weaknesses or unfulfilled wants. Use skills to the utmost in delivering your own message–this is no time to be sloppy. Our attention is on what hasn’t worked, what isn’t true, and what’s not creative. Examine for a while, but don’t set up camp–there’s only so much we can learn from failed efforts. (Mercury sesquiquadrate Chiron, Sun quincunx Neptune)

Get it all here. Hurry! Rates go up 1 October, but if you order now, you keep the current low rate for as long as you subscribe with no break in service!

The Mystic Rectangle of the Autumnal Equinox 22 September 2013

Tomorrow we experience the Autumnal Equinox (Spring Equinox for our Southern hemisphere friends), which features both a Mystic Rectangle and a Kite. Below I talk a little about the Mystic Rectangle, from an article in ECLIPSE.

The Mystic Rectangle is formed by Ceres, NN-Saturn-Venus, Chiron, and SN with, at the equinox moment, the Taurus Moon. The Mystic Rectangle itself suggests that the involved energies can be utilized especially effectively, working in concert in a way that provides an almost magical amplification of potentials. In this case, we are given a formula for effective use of power to manifest a pleasant reality, reward, Love, or all three, and our use of this formula is Path-determining. What’s the key to unlock this fantastic result? The willingness to allow healing. It sounds so easy, and I’m sure some people would answer with, ‘Who wouldn’t allow healing?’ Quite a few of us, it seems.

Think of all the situations, the little things, the lingering resentments, the occasions big and small that aggrieve us; think of how they become a part of the interior wallpaper, of defining who we are through experience. The point is these are parts of ourselves, grumblings and judgments and injustices, that aren’t really parts of ourselves at all; they are negative feedback, thought patterns, and interactions that we are carrying around in the psyche as if they have worth, as if they say something to us or about us worth preserving–and they don’t.

At the Equinox we are offered the chance to connect with our natural Power and natural role (Ceres) in such a way that we can heal (by ‘dissolving’, a Chiron in Pisces remedy) those things that needn’t cast shadows on the spirit, and that do so now only because we allow it.

Your Weekend Sampler 20-23 September 2013: Control and Restraint

'A Witches Sabbath' by Cornelis Saftleven c1650 {{PD}} Painted back when witches were depicted as bad, this illustrates the fear stirred in some by the powerful essence of Woman

‘A Witches Sabbath’ by Cornelis Saftleven c1650 {{PD}} Painted back when witches were depicted as aligned with evil, this kind of characterization illustrates the fear stirred in some by a Woman in touch with and in command of her powerful, natural essence

For the 20th:

Saturn sextile Pluto=we may have gotten used to this, but today could remind us just how much our reality picture has really changed recently, as this aspect perfects. This assists with transformations of the material environment and in dealing with authorities, though with the latter, be wary: they may sense the personal power within you, and react as if threatened, so keep a low profile

For the 21st:

Today’s image is a small toad, one of those Australian ones that excrete hallucinogens through their skin. We need to stay in control today in most areas, but in the purely private part of our world, it might be time to ‘lick the toad’, and take a brief but totally free mini-vacation of the mind.

For the 22nd:

Mercury semi-squares Vesta, bringing a kind of dignity to communications, and more trustworthiness than usual–but also a propensity to access ‘buzz words’ in hopes of persuading, and too much feeling that one’s words or reasoning are sacred and shouldn’t be questioned. Awareness of this tendency can help us navigate communications from those too eager or unconscious to realize how one-sided they’re being.

And the 23rd:

9 AM PacificĀ the Taurus Moon quincunxes Mercury. We may chafe at what’s communicated, or could be uncomfortable with what we must convey. Either way, thinking of the other person (Merc in Libra) would be a smart thing to do. 1 PM PDT the Moon conjuncts Sedna. Considering what else has been going on, we may fear that stress has blanked out the emotions, that we just can’t feel any more–but the reality is we are meant to either let them go for a time, or delve deep in a meditative respite. Neither is a better response–both serve their purposes. Just don’t make emotional decisions at this time–we can make the mistake of believing that not feeling is a good spot to make dispassionate choices from, but we really need that emotional measure in order to make choices that will truly suit us. Delay decisions until we sense feeling and intuition flood back. Void begins 1:25 PM PDT; the Moon enters Gemini at 12:35 AMPDT of the 24th.

This is all from ECLIPSE; subscribe to get much, much more! Don’t wait, prices go up October 1st–
