Moon in Gemini, My Daily Astrology Diary, The Astro Essence

'Windswept' Waterhouse {{PD-Art}}

By 7:30 AM PDT of the 5th the Gemini Moon forms an Air Grand Trine with Saturn in Libra and Vesta in Aquarius, balancing the mental faculties, placing the emotional outlook properly in perspective, and keeping it all aligned with our highest values and those things to which we dedicate our lives. This is an excellent influence, so take note of your mental state at this time, if possible; only major transits to natal factors are able to knock this potential askew. What you find (barring transit upsets) will be a perfect snapshot of how you should approach navigating life at this time. Rarely do we get a glimpse of total, healthy sanity and how it should appear in us, without any complexes, fears, or grudges–take advantage of this moment.

A quincunx of the Moon to the Earth and a square to Juno, 1 PM Pacific, brings us back to a more mundane reality, as we must adjust operations both to accommodate our material situation and to deal with any flak we get from those in charge (or at least, from those who think they should be!)

The Essence for 3-4 May 2011: Fresh-Scrubbed Emotions

Let’s actually start around 6:30 PM PDT the evening of the 3rd; that’s when the Moon in Taurus, like a fresh-scrubbed milkmaid, meets up with Sedna–and becomes udderly (milkmaid joke!) lost (sorry–feeling a little light-headed after planting trees in the sunshine). Poor Luna; it really is a matter of not being able to connect with our own feelings–so it’s an entire globe’s worth of people who haven’t a clue about their emotional state–and that can lead to all sorts of mischief, even tragedy. It’s the equivalent of absolutely everybody being disassociated, all at once, and that means that, driven by emotions of which we’re unaware, we could really put our foot in it (or in someone else’s ‘it’). Stick to material matters, tried-and-true comforts, and keep reactions to a minimum, and you should sail through this fine. Notable is that we enter the Void as the Moon pulls away from Sedna (6:54 PM Pacific–and yes, this will differ from some other astrologers’ calculations).

By 8:30 PM the Moon is quincunx the North Node and semi-sextile Jupiter and, shortly thereafter, Mars. Coming off the emotional blindness of Sedna, we may suddenly be re-connected to the emotions by the social sphere, probably through awareness of standards and what’s acceptable. It may be like waking up from sleep-walking to find ourselves, as in the classic dream, in class in our underwear–only this time it will be figurative, and emotional. We see how this affects our Path, and we act on what we observe–a pretty straightforward series of events, though since we’re in the Void, something unexpected could materialize, it’s just as likely there’ll be no lasting damage :)

Moon enters Gemini at 10:10 AM PDT, with an immediate square to Neptune that challenges the emotional outlook or the intuitive perceptions with either a ‘shot’ of potent inspiration or with information that contradicts our ideals. Now, this latter breaks down into one of two possibilities: either the info is real, and we need to acknowledge that our ideals are inaccurate in some way, or the info is an illusion or a deliberate deception, and must not be tolerated. How do we know the difference? If we’re willing to be totally honest with ourselves, we can intuit the answer: the Gemini Moon tunes us in to the nuances of communication–and from that we can know instinctively what we’re dealing with.

Moon in Gemini, My Daily Astrology Diary, The Astro Essence

Beauty and the Beast in a compassionate exchange by Anne Anderson {{PD-Art}}

A square to Venus arrives at 7:30 AM PDT, and this may inspire some interesting and revealing conversation–or exchanges of a truly compassionate nature. Our values may, for the moment, be Universal.

A square to Juno is made by the Gemini Moon just before 9:30 AM PDT, followed by a sextile to Jupiter by 11:30 AM. The emotions are confronted by a power position that is taken very seriously by another; we may enter this period feeling glib and come out the other side subdued by some very strong power urges in others. Our own desires to expand will show, too–tread carefully :)

The Essence for 7 April 2011: Are We Not Superhuman?

The Moon enters Gemini at 4:22 AM PDT on the 7th, and begins her sojourn with an inspiring square to Neptune; we see where we could do better, we embrace what inspires us, we imagine greater, we create with an open heart and mind–ooh, the journey through Gemini could be very good indeed, if we can reconcile our own emotional contrariness to the desire of this Moon to make contact and network network network.

A sextile to Uranus just after 7 AM PDT is followed quickly by a trine to Vesta 8 AM-ish; the effect is one where we feel mentally agile and inspired to meet our highest ideals and Purpose–but we must keep awareness of the Merc retro if we are to make best use of the energy–to forget that we are susceptible to the foibles of a natural cycle is to cast ourselves as Superhuman–and that mistake could mean we miss implementing successfully even the simplest of our goals. By 10:30 AM Pacific the Moon makes a square to Chiron, and we find out almost immediately whether our earlier lofty mindset translated well during this time of mental minefields and potential misunderstanding.

The Essence for 12-13 March 2011: Emotions Gently Handled

By 11 PM PST of the 12th the Moon trines Ceres in Air–and our thoughts will be on Mother Nature, and/ or the maternal. We can work out an emo kink in this area, smooth our thoughts, if we want to. (And this includes attaining a workable emotional relationship with current events–we can’t be overwhelmed forever).

Moon enters Cancer at 7:29 AM PDT of the 13th. A word on the Cancer Moon: this transit can be both highly soothing, as we are able to connect with methods and individuals who make us feel better (or at least well-nurtured) and it can be highly painful, as we wish to nurture, heal, or cure what’s around us in typical caring Cancerian fashion. Considering world events of late, it may be an up-and-down period; so be gentle with yourself, not expecting too much from any quarter, but also not demanding you give more than you comfortably can. You’re no good to anyone, especially yourself, if you’re debilitated.

Right away in Cancer the Moon squares Uranus–an emotional or intuitive surprise is possible, but I might also think there could be an emotionally-based challenge to our individuality, our ability to create and innovate, or to our stance on or position in the group. Your reaction will be a read on how you really feel about yourself in the area (individuality, ability to innovate, or group membership) where this occurs, and will reveal what you really think your place or privilege should be. This is good, as it wipes away false modesty and allows us to claim our own uniqueness publicly and proudly.

See it all with a subscription, just $15 for three full months–Thank you!

The Essence for 12 February 2011: Not Fritter Away

Moon in Gemini, My Daily Astrology Diary, The Astro Essence

Landscape of Norway by Konrad Magi c.1909

The Moon in Gemini can make us mentally energized–sassy, you might say–and by 4 PM PST a Grand Trine is in place, with Moon trine Mercury/ Ceres trine h.Zeus/ Saturn. This effect lasts through about 10 PM Pacific, and should bring forward a strong desire to make plans, especially ones that reflect the ambitions. Use the energy by channeling it into concrete efforts and commitments; it’s easy for this impetus to be frittered away with lots of talk, so try for best use of it. It’s also a good time for plant starts and planting seeds, in spite of the fact that we’re heading toward a Full Moon–the Grand Trine involves positive Moon energy, Ceres (Mother Nature), and Saturn (bringing into reality), which should make for a boost to what’s just initiated, whether it’s ideas or seedlings.

20 December 2010: Gemini Moon and Racing Minds + the Lunar Eclipse!

20 Monday Dec 2010

Posted by juliedemboski in current events in the sky, eclipse

ECLIPSE magazine, Lunar Eclipse, Moon in Gemini, My Daily Astrology Diary

Lithograph, Library of Congress USA, 1895 {{PD}}

Published 10:19 PM PST 19 December

The Moon’s Gemini characteristics come through loud and clear through the 2 PM hour PST; it’s talk, it’s mental, it’s light, it’s a wee bit frenetic, it’s charming. Don’t over think ‘it’ at this time; just go with the Gemmy flow!

2:30 PM of the 20th PST the Moon quincunxes Ceres, and it becomes clear that adjustments must be made to what nature or authority requires. Don’t let this spoil your week–it’s necessary to acknowledge that some things must be honored, no matter how these disturb our best-laid plans!

Around 6 PM PST, Moon squares Jupiter, squares Juno, squares Uranus, effectively forming a T that funnels social, empowerment, and group or individual autonomy matters through the emotions and intuition. We can believe we’re sensing (about others, the group, or our own empowerment choices) what’s really just an emotional reaction to what we’re faced with–and with concurrent trines of the Moon to Neptune and Chiron, it’s easy to see how our own proclivities for accepting wishful thinking and/ or believing another’s deceptions could convince us that we’re on to some course that’s supported by intuitive perceptions. The best alternative in this instance may be to take a step back from our own racing minds and recognize that there are factors influencing us that we can’t deal with on a purely mental basis (Gemini) and that we are too prone to subtle and nefarious influences (Neptune/ Chiron) to settle any empowerment questions or inquiries about our group role at this time.

Total Lunar Eclipse 21 December 2010 12:13 AM PST 29 Gemini 20

The Sabian for the Moon/ Earth conjunction is, ‘A Parade of Bathing Beauties Before Large Beach Crowds’  As a symbol of Lunar promise (with an influence to last through to the next eclipse set in 6 months), it suggests attractive individuals showing their ‘stuff,’ so to speak, before the masses. In very straightforward terms, it promises an atmosphere where we are either one of the Beauties, drawing attention and receiving scrutiny as we show our assets (!) or we are part of the crowd, watching and assessing. The likelihood is that we will all take turns, sometimes being ‘on parade,’ sometimes merely observing. Since no real skill is involved in this image, what we must conclude is that it’s what we might call ‘God-given’ facets of our Beingness that are on display, things that are just part of who we are, and that are considered desirable by the social order in which we participate. Added to the Sun’s Sabian, ‘The Pope Blessing the Faithful,’ the message could be that purely physical/ material assets that are innate may pull the individual in a direction opposite to one that promises a reward within a hierarchy (a ‘religion’ as represented by the figure of the Pope) that measures not by the physical but by what it deems devotion (and this is the key, that the hierarchy wants to call the shots) to their version of the spiritual/ devotional–which makes the hierarchy almost anti-spiritual in its demands.

What’s offered here is the essence of the eclipse energy; the only way to see the full report on the Lunar Eclipse of the 21st is by getting your password to the private pages; it comes with every purchase of the Fall ECLIPSE http://dogandsunflower.wordpress.com/the-latest-new-fall-2010-eclipse/    (Sorry, the links aren’t lighting up-Merc retro? 😦  please copy and paste)                  ECLIPSE Readers: your password is listed in the Table of Contents of the magazine, with links to pages at right and above-–Thank you for your support!

17 December 2010: The Weekend Outlook

ECLIPSE magazine, Moon in Gemini, Moon in Taurus, My Weekend Astro Diary

GH Durrie 'A Christmas Party' {{PD-Art}}

The Grand Cross of Sun/ Pallas, Earth, Juno, Jupiter/ Uranus is the star of the show this weekend, bringing strong emphasis on a conflict dynamic that may seem at this point to have no way of resolution. What’s wise/ smart is clear; there’s conflict, though, between the needs of the individual within her or his role in the group and the personal role that will bring empowerment. It’s a stand-off, so don’t expect any real answer–the best we can hope for is to work a compromise that’s relatively comfortable and workable. Further, Venus is sesquiquadrate Earth at this point, dragging values and relationships into the mix through the material demands these engender. This is a tough jumble of influences, the tension from which many will blame on holiday pressures, when the real focus is on our own internal struggle for personal empowerment within our own scene.

Pallas takes over as body of latest degree and Merc retro is conjunct, and hooked to the Sun as they are by conjunction means that we have a prevailing influence of wisdom and guidance, if we will only see it (it will be prominent, right in front of us, but some will manage to overlook it completely, likely complaining loudly about a lack of same!) Communications will, for a time (through to the inferior conjunction of the 20th) hold all that we need to know–and yet accessing/ recognizing that is the trick!

For a lot more on the weekend influences and the upcoming Lunar Eclipse, use your password to access the Private Pages at right (can’t remember your password? It’s listed in the Table of Contents in ECLIPSE) Don’t have a password? Get one here http://dogandsunflower.wordpress.com/the-latest-new-fall-2010-eclipse/ And have a great weekend!

23 November 2010: Classically Creative

Grand Trine, Moon in Cancer, Moon in Gemini, My Daily Astrology Diary

By 8 AM PST the Moon trines Neptune and creates a loose Grand Trine with Venus in lovely Libra. Energies of creation, aesthetics, and emotions balance and can be very effectively tapped  for personal use. 10 AM and the Moon follows up with a square to Uranus and Chiron is added to the Grand Trine. This could prompt creative energies manifested either using unique Chirotic skills or that are inspired by hurt–both are classic creative scenarios that will have an originality and  that may appear suddenly, a bolt of generative lightning that can inspire major work or ideas.

Void begins at 1:57 PM Pacific, and ends with the Moon’s entry into Cancer at 5:13 Pacific. In the interim, it might be best to take the afternoon (or whatever it is for you) off. If it’s anything where you are like it is where I am, you are snowbound–after that creative surge, sit back, put your feet up, and have a little cocoa 🙂

22 November 2010: Sagittarius Raw

Get this sassy Sag on a mug http://www.cafepress.com/dogandsunflower

 The Sun enters 00 Sagittarius and the Earth enters 00 Gemini at 2:14 AM PST. As planets of earliest degree, we may ‘lead with our identity’ or with a strong consciousness of our material position (by ‘lead’ I mean in that way we put this element of the Self forward first). At 00, though, it has a raw edge (some might call it innocent) and that can spell vulnerability for the first couple days of the transit through Sagittarius. Just take care to assess a situation before rushing in (and be conscious of the ‘foot’ you start out on!)

To see the full forecast daily and monthly here on the pages for ECLIPSE Readers Only, and get access to articles and more, get the Fall issue of ECLIPSE and the Pages password–$4.95 for 3 months (November, December, January) http://dogandsunflower.wordpress.com/the-latest-new-fall-2010-eclipse/ Thanks!
