The Taurus Moon has offered us a re-birth with its immediate aspects to the Sun/Earth axis at 00, and we’d do well to look at things through this renewed lens, our basic instincts (it is Taurus, after all) refreshed and refocused, for the moment on the emotional effects of material matters. The morning square PST to Mars makes us want to act on what we feel; unfortunately this is flipped with our capacity for emotional realization, and may mean that we get into difficulties with our need to change it up while only considering the consequences later (7 AMish PST on the 20th, when the Moon squares Mercury) .

Before this, though, we may go through a stop and start and stop again way of reacting, as the Moon first quincunxes Saturn (we try to measure how much to put on the brakes, likely unsuccessfully), then trines Pluto (what we’ve changed, transformed, or destroyed is presented to us), then sextiles Jupiter (and we get a little too much of whatever it is we’ve created, or we get feedback or exposure socially). After all this comes the Mercury contact, and we get the message, one way or another.
By then we’re well into the 20th, and spend the day either enjoying or trying to remedy what we created the day before. By 4 PM PST we are offered another new start, as the Moon conjuncts Sedna and trines the North Node–and this one may be involuntary, as the material either floods our consciousness or we become completely disconnected from it. This aspect allows us to feel without the usual impediments, mental, spiritual, psychic, or emotional, and yet we may not be able to label what we experience. It’s an event when emotional perceptions go directly to the nerves and bypass the brain–for some of us implying danger, while for others a unique sensory experience, and for still others a much needed ‘time out’ that allows a form of Taurean renewal.
By 6 PM the Moon opposes Pallas; expect emotional stand-offs centered on skills or ‘the wise course.’ 10 PM PST brings a quincunx to Ceres, bringing forward a need to adjust the emotions to nature, reality, or the needs of others, as Ceres takes a maternal tone. 2 AM PST starts a sextile to Uranus, followed swiftly by squares to Chiron and Neptune; the emotions take a beating, first startled, then lied to, hurt, deluded, or comforted with fantasy. If we’re asleep at this point the effect will enter through our dreams; look for the ways the senses will be represented, and what this may say about waking life.
In gratitude to all who’ve been so supportive in purchasing the inaugural issue of ECLIPSE, I’d like to offer the opportunity to ask a single, brief question. Email me at juliedemboski@hotmail.com with your query; include your birth info (write out the month, place name not co-ordinates) and I will determine if your question requires a look at the natal chart, at transits, or a horary chart. Vague, open-ended questions bring vague answers; specifics bring focused info. All answers will, of necessity, be very brief; be patient, I’ll get back to you as quickly as possible, and I’m sure you can understand that I won’t have the time for any follow-up exchanges, though of course I look forward to any comments you may have. This offer is valid only for purchasers of the magazine, and cannot be reassigned to anyone else, and the email used must be the email from which you purchased the magazine–no exceptions. No questions will be answered before magazine purchase. And, in case you’re wondering, it’s not too late–purchase your own copy of ECLIPSE–only $2.95!–and get in on the deal! http://dogandsunflower.wordpress.com/eclipse-in-depth-astrology-for-the-21st-century/
