‘Woman Walking in the Snow’ Utagawa mid-19th century {{PD-Art}}

The 16th sees Venus square Chiron. This could consume us with relationship hurts, real or imagined (Pisces) or just thought about (Gemini), with the contemplation itself causing guilt and upset. We will be touchy, and so will others, and we must make a special effort not to interact or spend out of long-held hurt–by this time we all should know, that won’t cure it.

And on the 17th:

8:30 AM PDT conjunction of the Moon to the South Node makes for some nostalgic talk and those who take a walk down memory lane may ‘remember’ what’s complete fantasy, thanks to Mercury/ Neptune. Contact to the South Node is also a point when we may fall back into old habits or find the past preferable to the present–don’t let this be you!

Your Weekend 18-20 May 2012: ‘Take Shelter, Be Ready’

Annular Solar Eclipse, astrology, ECLIPSE magazine, Moon in Gemini, Moon in Taurus, My Daily Astrology Diary, My Weekend Astro Diary, Solar Eclipse, Solar Eclipse May 2012, The Astro Essence

 

Pallas is instrumental in this Sunday’s eclipse effect. See it all in this week’s ECLIPSE! ‘Pallas Athena’ by Gustav Klimt {{PD-Art}}

All the following is excerpted from ECLIPSE Weekly Aspect Digest; imagine how much more you’d know if you subscribed! šŸ™‚

For Friday the 18th of May:

The Moon entered Taurus at 3:04 AM PDT. A 1 PM PDT quincunx of the Moon to the North Node sets the tone: we will spend the transit of the Moon through Taurus adjusting, and we may find we have a higher than usual discomfort both emotionally and physically.

Remember that the Mars/ Pluto trine in Earth is still in effect; the urge to do and transform is still strong, and also carries a higher than average chance of pushing us to be overly assertive, or inadvertently destructive, in our attempts to make things happen.

For Saturday the 19th:

On the 19th we see the Sun oppose Juno, which naturally means the Earth conjuncts her. We are looking at the figurative center of the Universe (in terms of consciousness) in opposition to the very personal, individual need for empowerment and a feeling of significance. Those who choose to play ‘the center of the Universe’ will, besides being insufferable! also be oblivious to the true effects they’re having–they may see themselves as beaming goodness and light to the masses, while those around them suffer sunburn, dehydration, and squint in the glare of ego–while everyone else will be seeing things from too small and insecure a position to operate effectively. The key to handling this, and avoiding coming down on either side of the equation, may be to leave matters of power and influence to the side, for now. A low-key, modest approach is an appropriate way of operating during the Dark of the Moon; we don’t really have the energy to pursue power moves at this time, so responding actively to Sun/ Juno may frazzle us and lead exactly nowhere.

And for Sunday the 20th, the day of an Annular Solar Eclipse (New Moon) in Gemini:

The eclipse/ New Moon (occurring at 4:46 PM PDT at 00 Gemini 20) inceptions focus through the image of the Wise Warrior, the anima with native intelligence, poise, mad practical skills, and the fearless martial poise of someone both well-armed (whether that’s figurative or literal) and wise. This persona accepts the role of wise guide for the Self or for others, applying the practical skills, knowledge, and the ripe wisdom of experience to negotiate events of the eclipse–and the entity takes this image on in response to someone (the Juno figure, which sits opposed the eclipse at 29 tense degrees of Scorpio) who is seeking empowerment or exerting authority, and it may be at our expense, or inappropriate to the relationship–

Just a Little Lunar Essence for Today 26 March 2012: ‘A Puff of Smoke’

‘A Smoke Backstage’ Harnett 1877 {{PD-Art}}

11 AM PDT the Taurus Moon conjuncts Sedna. The emotions disappear in a puff of smoke–or do they? Just because we don’t know our feelings doesn’t mean they aren’t there. This can be a flashpoint for unconscious emotion made manifest; the tendency is to believe we’re highly rational at this time, and unaffected by feeling–but that would be incorrect. Move through this very carefully. The tough thing is, the Moon comes up on Sedna and his current partner, Venus–and not being able to know our values and aesthetics at this time, and especially not being able to see the worth of relationships or money, may be especially crippling. I would recommend NO big decisions or actions (or maybe even interactions) for a window lasting the entire day of the 26th.

Just a Little Lunar Essence for Today 25 March 2012: ‘The Better Choice’

Not the kind of duck we’re talking about with Pluto. ‘Duck Houses’ Haake 1911-1913 {{PD-Art}}

Just before 5 AM PDT the Taurus Moon quincunxes Juno and sextiles Chiron. The emotions must adjust to the empowerment picture–we really have no choice. We do have a choice concerning our response, though, and we may feel hurt, believing we’ve been injured, or we may see it as a chance to heal something in our attitude concerning the power and position we have. We know which choice is the better one, don’t we?

9 AM Pacific the Moon completes the trine to Pluto, bringing any fierce feelings to a head. Duck.

Void begins at 10:19 AM PDT; the Moon enters Taurus at 2:44 PM PDT. First aspect is 5 PM PDT, a sextile to Neptune, making for the fanciful, the playful, and the strongly intuitive. Attitudes can be light, can be deeply feeling, or can flit into the deceptive or delusional. Don’t waste your time watching a movie or reading a book with this aspect; get together with others and make your own entertainment!

'Dignified Couples Courting' Hmm, perhaps that's a matter of opinion. Buytewech c1620 {{PD-Art}}

12:30 PM PST the Taurus Moon trines retro Mars in Earth. This shows us what we need to do to make ā€˜it’ happen, and also shows us why we shouldn’t go forward, just yet. To ignore that last part of the message is to court trouble, so don’t.

Just a Little Astro Essence for Your Weekend 25-26 February 2012: ‘A Season for the Self’

For Saturday 25 February:

10 AM Pacific time the Aries Moon conjuncts Venus. Since Venus is uneasy in Aries to begin with, the Moon comes along and aggressively probes our feelings on relationships and finances, and these are likely two areas where of late we’ve been (uncomfortably) putting ourselves first, lately. The thing is, we shouldn’t feel badly about seeing to our own needs at this time; with so many bodies in the sign of the ram right now (Uranus, Ceres, Moon, Venus) we are called to emphasize our own expression and power needs in all situations. Venus, Ceres, and the Moon can all muster their own specific ā€˜voices of guilt’ when we become susceptible: Venus’ is the one we experience after a bout of jealousy or envy, Ceres’ belongs to the internalized mother who chides us for any number of (probably) irrelevant or outmoded behaviors, and the Moon just urges us to be hang-dog in general! Just be aware that this is the astro ā€˜season’ for us to put the focus on ourselves, guilt-free (and I blame that Pisces Sun, too, shining a light on altruism as if it’s the only game in town!) Vesta comes along to join this group in Aries at 11:04 AM Pacific time, adding to the imperative to think of ourselves first at this time–so do it without shame :)

And for Sunday 26 February

4 AM PST the Moon opposes Saturn, either divorcing us from feelings of guilt and repression, or showing us just how far our feeling nature is from the corresponding reality. An aspect of freedom, disorientation, and the heavy memory-reminder-burden of things like reality, gravity, and everything that has a say over us. Void begins (and either frees us from caring or from feeling we must do something about these Saturnian things) at 4:53 AM PST; the Moon enters Taurus at 6:30 AM PST, immediately sextiling Neptune. Confusion or delusion over the material situation is the result, and a drained feeling likely all-around. Not a great kick-off for the bull. Vesta sits at the Moon/ Neptune midpoint, and this adds an important point: that our confusion or delusion is seated in a feeling that something sacred has been violated. Knowing that we may think and act from a sense of indignation may give us some perspective: we can’t hope to ā€˜feel clearly’ coming from a prejudiced state of mind!

Just a Little Lunar Essence for Today 1 February 2012: ‘Tempest in a Teapot’

Void begins 11:07 AM PST; the Moon enters Gemini at 11:15 AM Pacific time.Ā  Right away the Moon opposes Juno, setting a combative tone over territory and empowerment matters. It may be all talk, or a battle of knowledge or information, philosophy or religious belief, or the sheer blast of one person broadcasting loud and clear, and so not open to receiving new or contradictory info! Mostly just a tempest in a teapot; refuse to be embroiled in what likely ends up being a lot of fuss without real import.

Just after 7 PM PST the Moon sextiles Ceres. We are reminded of our natural authority, and of the areas where nature says we rule :) Ā  Use your power wisely~

'Ships in Distress in a Raging Storm' Backhuysen c1690 {{PD-Art}}

4:30 PM Pacific the Moon sextiles Venus; costs and benefits (and these may be material, with Moon in Taurus) are clear–the real question is, Will we acknowledge this?

6:30 PM PST the Taurus Moon conjuncts Sedna and trines Mars. Suddenly we won’t know what we feel, and yet those unheralded feelings will drive our awkward, fits-and-starts (Mars retro) actions and choices-yikes! Anything that falls in this window of influence (4 or so hours before or after this time) that feels compelling should probably be avoided, just for safety’s sake.

2:30 AM PST the Taurus Moon conjuncts Jupiter, making for big, indulgent emotions. If you are an emotional eater, duct tape your hands together (you’ll probably need a buddy for this!) and get as far from food (or perhaps seek out unappetizing surroundings) as you can; if you’re an emotional acter-out, you could do anything from vowing to (and starting to) re-paint the entire house–red!–to ripping through your SO’s belongings, looking for love letters and clues to a (likely mythical) other lover or other life! All I can say up front is that the pursuit will definitely be Taurean, and take on big proportions on a life-upsetting scale. Bubble baths and a little Valerian (not at the same time!!) are my suggestions. Or getting out for a sensual experience: mud bath, running in the rain, a concert, play, or IMAX movie–even a scratch ā€˜n sniff lottery ticket will help you get through this ;)

6:30 PM PST the Moon squares the Sun, pushing us to face what’s going on at the time in terms of assessing it–a somewhat critical stance that may not be all that illuminating, despite how it seems. Too much examination of anything at this time is to be avoided.

Remember, aspects influence about 4 hours either side of the times listed here. For much more, please subscribe! Thank you; and I hope your week has gotten off to a great start!

And may I recommend a look at this coming week by the esteemed Jude Cowell
