Key to Survival - New Moon in Taurus

The Key to Human Survival

The New Moon on April 22-23, 2020, at the 3º ♉️24' of her exaltation initiates a powerful monthly cycle when we will focus on finding or creating resources to ensure our survival. 

Both the Sun and Moon conjunct Uranus, meaning, our conscious and unconscious self are united to initiate innovation. People everywhere in the world are asking themselves and others, how do we need to change our way of producing food in order to ensure that we eat tomorrow. Uranus in Taurus work is to fracture our stability and inertia in order for us to understand that the economic activity as we know it is no longer working for our benefit. This 'fracture' transforms our values and desires, which translates in us changing our consumerism habits. Our eating and buying habits are changing drastically in response to this fracture.

In the same way Uranus in Taurus accompanied the Great Depression between 1934 and 1941, he is drying out the climate, the land, the air. Strong wind activity will probably have damaging effects over different regions of the earth. Agriculture will be affected by drought and some fertile lands may become deserts.

However, Uranus works also like the strike of a thunderbolt in our intellect. People will come up with genius seeds of ideas in order to face the losses, the scarcity and the economic contraction. A higher level of consciousness will help us expand our awareness of reality, make radical transformations in our daily lives, operate sudden changes and adopt innovative methods of food production.

Uranus rules Aquarius where Saturn just entered to show us that we need to restructure our social behavior. One way Saturn imposed restriction is now social distance, but we can expect more social restructuring down the line when he re-enters Aquarius in December.  At the same time, Mars is also transiting Aquarius, instigating lots of virtual social contact through the Aquarian waves of the Internet. More than ever before, people realize how important is the exchange of ideas, and finding your own like-minded group to pool together, unite the creative variety in order to build something new. The creation of the new paradigm is up to our collective collaboration and cooperative undertakings for the benefit of the local community. 

Let us not forget that even though, Saturn is now in Aquarius, the Saturn Pluto conjunction that occurred January 12, 2020 has started a New Era, a new cycle of 700 years.  Not only that,  but it is in effect the whole year, for two reasons. First reason is, Saturn will soon turn retrograde and enter back in Capricorn where he will approach Pluto once more. The second reason is that the 22-23º ♑️mark where the conjunction took place has been constantly receiving aspects from other planets, thus being activated by Mars, Jupiter, Venus, the Sun, Mercury, and the Moon every month. Worse even, later in the year, Mars retrograde season in Aries will square it three times. AND, as if that is not enough, let's not forget the presence of the revolutionary Eris in constant square to that mark! with whom, Mars will join forces from September through December 2020. The transformative energy of the Saturn Pluto conjunction is associated with the virus onset and spread. It is safe to predict that the illness will continue affecting our health on and off most probably until late Winter or early Spring next year.

Venus, the ruler of this New Moon is transiting her pre-shadow territory in Gemini, where she will dwell until the beginning of August because of her retrograde period. She is in charge of gathering information, and helping us to make connections with other people in the small communities. Once the lockdown is over, we will go out and review, reconsider and reevaluate our current social activity (Venus retrograde motion). It will be only after June 25th that we will actually know for sure what our new values are, what social connections we want to keep, and which ones will go. Then, will be the time to sort out the information we are absorbing now, as well. 

For the moment, we are not able to make up our minds on what is real and what is not. Neptune direct in semisextile with Mercury promotes distraction, a tendency to daydream and try to escape the situation. This energy favors self doubt, doubt in general, misunderstanding, indecisiveness to make a clear choice, much confusion and even unintentional or intentional deception. This is why I always highlight the importance of introspection, reflection and meditation, especially with a news fasting. 

However, we can tap into our inspiration and creativity to imagine the world we want to create going forward, not only for us, but for our children and our posterity. Tune in to your Higher Self and download directly from the Heavens, the Spiritual World. Your ancestors are close to guide you. Even the memories you carry from past (parallel) lives traumas and challenges and how you cope with them, may come to you as entirely surprising solutions. Use this lockdown as an opportunity to retreat and elevate.

Full Moon in Virgo - Your Health, My Health! March 9, 2020

 Your Health, My Health!

Full Moon 19º37’ ♍️Virgo

March 9, 2020

Image by Daniel Kirsch Pixabay.

Your Healing, My Healing
The Full Moon happens at 19º 37’ Virgo, with the Sun conjunct Neptune in Pisces.  Full Moons are always culminations by maximum opposition that allow for awareness of the issues related to the Signs involved. The Virgo Pisces axis of the zodiac is associated with health and healing, with energetic and physical imbalance, spirituality and practicality, service, charity, reclusion in hospitals and prisons, retreat and quarantine.

The Virgo Moon’s spotlights health, healing, cleaning, disinfection, organization, cleansing, detox, health related issues and activities.

The Sun with Neptune in Pisces sheds light or focuses on the confusion, the lack of boundaries, vulnerable immune system, and invisible ‘enemies’, i.e. germs.

Virgo’s symbol is a maiden separating the wheat from the chaff, which implies discrimination at the time of separating what’s good from what’s not. Virgo criticizes because it uses discernment to analyze, classify, organize. Virgo gives information in a logical thread of ideas, one ensuing from the other by reasonable association. 

Thank goodness that Mercury turns direct today in Aquarius! Thoughts and communications become clearer, we can focus on the details, analyse, and organize data in order to come up with sound conclusions. Mercury, ruler of this Full Moon, now in Aquarius is sharp for scientific research, and access to higher knowledge to bring about innovation and cutting edge solutions. Between now and March 15th, take advantage of it and do your accounting, taxes, studies, and any administrative work, before Mercury re-enters Pisces until April 10th. 

Pisces on the contrary, merges everything together, doesn’t have separations or distinctions. That's why, my health is your health, because we are all interconnected and interdependent. Pisces perceives by intuition and imagination, gives the whole insight in one piece, in an image or sequence of images like in a movie. In Pisces, it’s easy to be confused, to hide secrets, to conceal or diffuse information, or to have misinformation. However, the Sun may give some clarity now on the health issues, so we may finally have enough ‘light’ to understand them better.

However, as it is the case for all oppositions, it may exacerbate the polarization of opinions, which in turn will motivate people to dig out the truth more sensibly.

If you have a personal planet around the 20º of the mutable Signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius or Pisces), its related issues will be clearer. At a personal level, the Sun conjunct Neptune gives a sense of defeat, low energy level, suspension in time, disillusion, imaginary thinking, self-deception. Neptune debilitates the aura, the immune system and makes you vulnerable to secret enemies, like energetic attachment, or other people’s energy.

Let's do something about it
Sun sextiles Jupiter and Mars in Capricorn, which opens the possibility to act on increased clairvoyance, or intuition if you keep grounded in your spiritual practice. A bout of inspiration, compassionate concern for others, charity efforts, and professional knowledge could be of great service to the society as a whole if well coordinated and efficiently put to action. 

However the same energy also magnifies idealization, imagination, even mental derangement.

You need to be careful though, and stay away from inflated delusions, especially acting up on them (Mars conjunct Jupiter). Just a few days ago a man called Mike Hughes died in California in a frustrated rocket launch because he’d said “his goal was to eventually fly to the edge of outer space to determine for himself whether the world is round.”

Moon trine Jupiter and Mars opens the possibility that the evolution of the spread of Covid-19 in affected and not affected countries, increases the efforts to control the illness. However, the situation escalates the effect on international trade and the friction in government relationships. There may be a need to modify and improve healthcare measures and responses already taken, in order to match the clearer understanding and knowledge uncovered under the influence of the Full Moon light.

The Moon sesquisquare (135º angle) and the Sun semi square (45º angle) the Venus Uranus conjunction. Even though, these are considered ‘minor’ aspects, their relevance is reflected in the consequences of this health crisis. The Covid-19 has a higher death toll than other forms of flu, impacts the flow of share resources, creating economic instability and commercial stress because of supply shortage, which in turn affect the global finances. The crisis impacts human affections because brings sudden unexpected social and relational changes. Families and loved ones may be separated, by isolation or death. Individuals have already been barred from displacement because of border closings or entire quarantine communities. 

Don't give in to fear, but live mindfully of self and others, be proactive.

Conclusion

We are forced to come out of the dream land of Pisces, learn pertinent scientific information, and take active responsibility for our own life, without waiting for a 'patriarchal' figure to take care of us. More than ever, Human Beings realize that 'The other person is you' (Yogi Bhajan). We cannot continue believing that we can survive in isolation. We have created a global economic network without realizing that we would have to take responsibility for all implications. With this crisis, we are made accountable for our actions and inaction, and even for our intentions. May we all reflect on them, and decide to change our habits, so the Human Race can survive and thrive.

Aquarius New Moon - January 24, 2020

Shocking Friday

The Tower, from The Druid Craft Tarot Deck by Philip and Stephanie Carr-Gomm, 
Illustrated by Will Worthington - Eddison Books Unlimited, used with permission.

Aquarius and Uranus

At this New Moon, the Sun and Moon will be together at 4º ♒️22',  exactly at the degree of the longest Aquarius Lunar Eclipse on July 27, 2018. People born with the Sun or any other planet in the first decan of Aquarius, will be impacted more strongly.  Since the planets and cosmic bodies work in cycles, and as this New Moon closes another cycle at the same degree, it activates it once more. You will certainly remember something special that you experienced around the time of that Lunar Eclipse. Something related or around the same theme may happen for you to make one step higher in your soul's evolution.

The Moon squares Uranus earlier in the day (12:34 pm), and sextiles Chiron at the same time. The unexpected emotions carry a healing power that makes you feel confident about who you are.
But once the Moon meets the Sun, they both square Uranus, Aquarius ruler. Even though Mercury is not conjunct, it's close by, which adds more electrical energy to the chart.

The chart's dominant element is Air, even though the other elements are also present.  This makes for a lot of intellectual activity, flow and exchange of ideas, sudden flashes of understanding or insight, and a lot of communication. The Aquarian energy promotes rebellion, radical changes, eccentricity, erratic movement (windy weather for example), disruption in communications and media, unorthodox ideas, excitement, stimulation, irritability, and possible distraction. Look at the houses where Aquarius and Taurus are to find out the area affected in your personal life.

In the World, there may be more earthquakes, people protesting asking for liberation from the material and financial restrictions, and freedom of movement. More people are needing to migrate because of violence, famine, or war. While Saturn and Pluto on their respective planetary South Nodes hang on to the past, build walls and close frontiers; Eris in Aries, and the Aquarius New Moon fight for liberation from limiting and obtuse traditions.

The Chart lacks Water energy, which can make you overcompensate by making artificial efforts to give an emotional response to your environment, look for excitement in intense dramatic news, or prove sensitivity by showing excessive concern about the circumstances.

On the other hand, there is also a lot of Earth energy, which makes you practical, realistic, to the point, organized, and maybe too much materialistic. You may feel the need to be methodical, follow a plan, make a schedule, clean the house, and provide security for your family.

The 'Benefics'

Mercury makes the waning semi-sextile to Venus. As he enters the balsamic stage, they're about to finish their cycle started at the end of October in Scorpio. It has been a cycle of learning more, find out the deeper truth about love and money. With the Scorpio inprint, love has been a psychological research of oneself and of the other. Do we have now a better understanding about how we function, our power dynamics in relationships, romantic or not? What truth did you discover about your money and your personal values or your self worth?  This is the time to come to the conclusions that you will communicate with your significant other or your business partner once Mercury meets Venus again on May 22, 2020.

Venus makes her waxing sextile to Jupiter, which makes you feel attractive, optimistic, lucky, popular, generous, sensual, and very much sociable. You want to party, meet and chat with people, make love. You have great satisfaction sharing your appreciation, affection, making new friends. Love expands your heart! You may be attracted to a foreigner, to other cultures... maybe thinking of a vacation in an exotic place or buy your plane tickets!

The Bad Guy

Now, this is the discordant note. Mars is just 36' away from a square to Venus Neptune midpoint! No good, no good! On the Pisces side, you may be building romantic castles in the air. You may have escaped to the ninth cloud in a wine-cup carriage, or in your way to Love Nirvana with your Metta meditation. So the warrior takes advantage!

This is the soup that makes secret attacks possible. Shootings, secret enemies, obscure sexual secret affairs and such appeared in the news on February 17, 2018 when Mars in Sagittarius and Neptune in Pisces squared at 13º.  On August 26, 2016 when they squared at 10º, the news talked about a ship attacked in the ocean, earthquakes, a religious extremists' martyrdom, car bombings, politicians harshly attacking each other, a strike ended up in murder, people attacked while sleeping, and false incriminations.

Mars will exactly square Neptune on Sunday which we can soundly predict it as 'explosive'. A gas tank may blow up, pirates may attack a ship in the ocean, someone may be killed by a sniper.  Neptune is associated with sleep, islands in the ocean, navigation, gas, any liquid, addiction to liquid substances, vacations in far away countries, retreats, hospitals, hospice, secret enemies, all kinds of germs (virus, bacteria, but especially fungi), poisons, refugees, prisons, charity, churches, secluded spaces, bedrooms and bed pleasures. Any of those may be under attack or become aggressive.

At home, make sure you check your boiler, gas furnace, gas stove, and check for possible hot water leaks. If you fear illness, remember to buy masks to protect yourself from the coronavirus.

Another consideration is that, on Sunday, Mars is at 17º where Jupiter was September 21, 2019 squaring Neptune. Try to remember the theme that Jupiter Neptune square represented in your life when they were dancing in conflict  back and forth during 2019 (at 14, 17 and 18 degrees), because Mars may revive it. The delusion we experienced all 2019 may be the subjacent aggressive force that triggers the event on Sunday with Mars Neptune square. Do you have a secret enemy of any kind?

Mars and Neptune can be beneficial for us as well, depending on your personal level of vibration. The square may present the necessary challenge to roll up your sleeves and work for your dreams, your ideals, or develop your spiritual connection with a Supreme Being. With Neptune and Venus in Pisces you are inspired to create, to love unconditionally. You have the potential to elevate your spirituality, to improve your spiritual perception, to awaken your intuition. You may find the perfect kind of spiritual practice for you.

Conclusion

This is certainly a New Moon of sudden changes. After the heavy restraint we endured with Saturn and Co. in Capricorn, this New Moon brings a breeze of fresh air. We may recover the optimism, and the vision for a better future. Dare to break the chains of anything that holds you back from being who you want to be, and reaching your dreams. Don't lose your anchor though, keep the good things you've built in your life, use them as your foundation to launch your new life. Create, innovate, inspire, build, but just be yourself!

Blessings! Sat Nam.

January 12, 2020 Great Conjunction - Part VI

Great Stellium in Capricorn
The 10th House

Mine is an attempt to read the Great Conjunction chart as the Birth of a New Era for the World. The series starts HERE. I will explain the meaning of each Zodiac House using some of the methods I use to read any Birth Chart. This way the reader will also have a sense of how I work. I start here a series of posts revealing the meanings through the houses rulership.

Saturn and Pluto

Following the rulership of every cosmic body in the chart, they all come back to Saturn rulership. The theme is Saturn! He is the Lord of this Chart, the Lord of Karma and Time (Chronos), societal conventions and structures, and its political institutions that ensure people's security through civilization. 

Saturn is the natural ruler of the 10th house, and is the host of the other five planets. Saturn likes to keep things as they are, always dwelling in the past. Remember that he ate his children because he didn’t want anything to change. Especially, he wanted to avoid being overthrown by them. In, Capricorn, his own house, Saturn loves his own structures and walls.

Chronos and his child - by Giovanni Francesco Romanelli (1610-1662) public commons

But, Pluto, one of his children and enemy, came to show Saturn the crumbling chambers of his ancient house. Pluto brings to the surface the decadence, the rot, the decomposing pieces that don’t work anymore in society, and political structures, and need replacement. 

The cycle Saturn Pluto revolves around destruction and reconstruction, dissolution and redistribution of power, and the rise and fall of divisions, walls and empires. Because without them, without leaving behind what doesn’t serve us any longer, human evolution and progress cannot take place.

During the balsamic phase, in 2018-2019, we witnessed the decomposition proper of the end of an era. We witnessed the corruption, malfunction, deficiencies and unsustainability of the global economic establishment. Since Capricorn rules public material security, it is important to realize that the hunger for power is always motivated by economic reasons. Countries and other entities of power seek resources to maintain themselves, and the need for expansion arises when the resources are scarce or only available in other places; then they have to fight to gain access to them. 

In that regard, this New Era is not different from previous ones. Today's economy is so competitive because there are many power players, and each one is looking after their own interests. Resources like energy sources, water, agricultural land and food are at stake in the modern world. But with the technology boom of the last few decades, the hidden riches of the earth (Pluto), like minerals, metals, and chemicals are most coveted. This Chart shows that those who are in possession of the resources are the ones dominating the rest. They will risk war if necessary to appropriate the coveted resources. 

How can the common people help to deescalate those economic wars? We need to change the materialist consumerism mentality. If people don't buy useless and unnecessary commodities, the markets will not strive to keep up. Then Humanity can evolve towards a world of being instead of having. 

The Sun and Mercury

The blueprint of the January 12, 2020 chart, with the Sun, Saturn, Pluto and Mercury in Capricorn, however, doesn’t seem to show but the strengthening of the dominant powers. Even though, the power may be redistributed, it will continue to be concentrated in the hands of a very centralized oligarchic elite, possible a unipersonal authoritarian head of state. Most probably, a powerful (Pluto) centralized entity (Sun) with a regulated structure (Saturn), that also monopolizes communication, planification, agreements, business markets, work and services (all Mercury matters) will manage and administrate the Earth resources and wealth (Pluto).

Communication, publicity and propaganda (associated with Mercury) is already used to manipulate the masses towards consumerism. People will need to develop a higher level of discrimination and critical thinking to sort out what is true and what is just fabricated information with a marketing agenda. 

Ceres

The Asteroid Ceres is part of the conjunction at 22º. Ceres is the Roman equivalent of Demeter, daughter of Chronos (Saturn), Greek Goddess of agriculture.  "Ceres is the goddess of the harvest and presides over grains (cereals) and the fertility of the earth. Although she was most often referred to as the goddess of the harvest, she was also goddess of sacred law and the cycle of life and death, because she nourishes life" (wikipedia).

Her virgin daughter Persephone was abducted by the god of the underworld riches, Hades (Pluto). In grief, Ceres endlessly searched for her daughter.  Because of her loss, the seasons halted and living things stopped growing and died. At this point, Jupiter, intervened and sent his messenger Mercury, to the underworld to bring Persephone back and prevent the extinction of all life on Earth. Hades agreed to Persephone’s relief but she was bound to him for one third of the year.

Frederic Leighton - The Return of Persephone (1891) public commons

Capricorn offers a barren soil for Ceres, Mother Earth, to nurture her children. Ceres conjunction with Pluto reflects in our consciousness the Earth trauma of being deprived of its fertility and abundance due to human irreverence, misuse, and pollution. The dryness, coldness, sterility and impassible materiality of methods imposed by Saturn withers the agriculture’s ability to fructify and nurture.  Ceres in Capricorn confuses nurturance with acquisition of goods, and mothering with achieving goals and taking responsibility. By believing ourselves to be the masters and owners of Nature, Human beings invented the concept of property and have defiled and plunder Mother Earth almost irreversibly.  Many are still blind to the Earth transmutation that is taking place at this time. However, she makes us well aware of the destructive consequences of the industrial revolution pushed to the extreme of 'raping' the Earth to extract her substance. We need to realize the need to transform our relationship with our planet, and create a sustainable economic system. Ceres demands protection, care, support and proper nourishment in order to survive.

Jupiter

Even though Jupiter (9º♑️20’) is far from the exact multiple conjunction, he contributes his expanding energy to the Sign of Capricorn. Being just a few minutes away from his conjunction with his own planetary South Node (9º♑️37’), though, denotes a process of releasing past and obsolete religious, cultural, ideological, and legal historical ideas and beliefs. It could nonetheless, exacerbate the clinging to traditional forms of dominance using dogma, fanaticism, extreme ideologies, cultural discrimination or harsh injustice. Read more about Jupiter in Capricorn.

Let’s not forget that Jupiter is still in orb to the square to Chiron. It looks that the extreme use and imposition of a uniform ideology, be it political, religious, cultural, or other,  presents a serious threat to people’s right to exist, to their identities, and to the cultural and ethnic diversity which has ensured so far the survival of our species through adaptation to each geographic location. 

Chiron in Aries has the perception that his right to occupy a space, a time, or a body of existence and act upon it is threatened or hindered somehow. All 2019, the world has heard protest in different regions and countries, of people reclaiming their own right to be, to survive. Their voices claim as well the right to think for themselves. For example, young people in Taiwan are not seduced by the old ideology of the mainland. They think that they know what they want and are willing to die for it.

Chiron's wound manifests also through the massive displacements and migrations of entire identity groups (Jupiter), that just for being who they are, are suffering rejection, abandonment and persecution. Examples of xenophobia for this reason abound anywhere one turns in the world. However, Rumi's saying goes: 'The wound is the place where the light enters you'. Hopefully, the pain awakens us to build a better tomorrow. 

Chiron, the Wounded Healer

Jupiter has an applying septile to Venus that can prove to be stressful due to important changes in the value system, read also ‘financial system’. Venus in Aquarius on the anaretic degree, in turn has an applying sextile to Uranus in Taurus, her own zodiac home. This provides an opportunity to adopt innovative values, develop technological resources, to serve the Jupiterian influence on the overall beliefs that may be imposed to people by the centralized power. Venus in Aquarius is about to complete her job of attracting scientific discoveries, networking in the development of cutting-edge revolutionary technologies, shaking the stock market, and setting goals for the adoption of future values. 

The Capricorn conjunction squares Eris

Saturn, Pluto, the Sun, Mercury and Ceres square the dwarf planet Eris. With a Golden Apple offered to the fairest, Eris triggered the discord among the most beautiful Greek women and their suitors, which provoked the Trojan War.  It was a conflict of passions, vanity, self-glorification, and unbridled desire for power. 

Golden Apple of Discord - Jacob Jordaens public commons

Eris in Aries, the rebellious Goddess in the home of the impetuous warrior, her own brother, turned direct just one day before, and is now exactly square the Capricorn stellium. Her rebellion has already been shown for a couple of years of protest in the streets of the world. What do the people want? They claim their right to exist. The tighter the powerful fist, the stronger the rebellion. 

Even though Saturn and the other planets are moving on, Pluto, the relentless pressure of political power, is digging his heels at 23º Capricorn, back and forth for one more year. When Mars takes his retrograde period (end August 2020 to January 2021) in Aries (square Pluto), we can be sure to see armed conflicts.

Finding Meaning

Yes, as Leonard Cohen signs "there is a crack in everything".  Apparently only when people goes through deep suffering, are they able to awake to the spiritual dimension of life. At this time, we are become aware of the need to have a different kind of social, economic, political system, with pure intentions and compassion towards life.  We should embrace the inexorable transmutation and regeneration that this historical astrological configuration is operating individually and collectively. Humanity is to evolve through the material experience in order to merge back to its Source, because 'we are a way for the cosmos to know itself" (Carl Sagan).
