Cosmic Weather:

“When your imagination’s at work, your dreams make sense.” Anthony T. Hincks

Have you ever struggled to put something together, manually? Let’s say maybe a paperclip. And, you all have these supposed “easy-to-assemble” instructions, right before you, but you still can’t figure out how to assemble the darn thing? Well, in a left-handed way, I guess that’s sort of how I feel about today’s Full Moon in instructional and corrective Virgo. As I was meditating on the meaning of this lunation this morning, in preparation for this blog, all of a sudden, I got inundated with an avalanche of assorted details. Including receiving a hallucinatory vision (Mercury conjunct Neptune in Pisces) of a 32-page colored report, with perfect margins, of everything that is wrong in my present-day life! It’s like, how in the heck do I even begin to right the ship? 🙂

Virgo the Virgin, as you probably know, is number six in the zodiac lineup. Or, is midway through it, in other words. Kind of tucked away in obscurity. (Where it frickin’ belongs!) Of course, usually when you get to the middle of anything is often when the plot thickens or twists, including when some things may begin to break down. Even in the body, Virgo governs the intestines, which are located in the middle region of the body, and also where food particles are broken down for digestion. Too, if your diet is not that good and you’re eating a lot of the wrong things, such as maybe stuffing your face with pimento cheese sandwiches and washing it all down with a gallon of Irish whiskey for breakfast, your stomach and intestines will probably let you know, pretty fast, that you’re screwing up. And you’ll, no doubt, be receiving several lashes for penance while having to listen to Virgoan recorded messages prompting you to eat your dang vegetables instead. Including yucky broccoli!

Moving right along.

Trying to keep everything very simple and orderly for you here, today. Because we do have, again, intellectual Mercury, the Virgo Full Moon’s official ruler, exactly conjunct psychedelic, mushroom-eating Neptune now. Folks, there’s no wait out of this one, unfortunately. I’m sorry.

Waiting any moment to be taken away by space aliens in little white coats…

Yes, with an illuminating Full Moon in troubleshooting Virgo, at this moment in time, we’re essentially checking under the hood. Seeing how everything is working. Or not working. Maybe we need a smidgeon of antifreeze under our arms. Or on our hips. Or our lips, perhaps, need to be pumped up or inflated with a pound or two of more air to better resemble Kim Kardashian’s. Just typical body maintenance stuff.

But, wait! There’s more! That was just for starters! 🙂

Then there’s the whole other matter of the cleanaholic Virgo Full Moon likely wanting to invade our home space today! Holding us hostage, no doubt, with an industrial-sized vacuum cord, tied around our neck, and a Swiffer Sweeper thrusted under our arm so we can gather up all the dirt, and other crap, that’s been accumulating, exponentially, since who knows when. The fact is, too, we haven’t really been able to see any of this gook, all that well, until this god-awful Virgo Full Moon shows up! Plus, it’s a darn SuperMoon to boot! Making its impact that much worse!  Now, the darn dustballs are glaring at us! The cobwebs are staging a Uranian-type revolt! And, the dirty laundry in the clothes hamper is starting to come to life, twisting and shouting, and foaming at the mouth. Kinda like Linda Blair in the Exorcist!

Well, maybe it’s not quite that bad.

But, then there’s the matter of…

And then…

Oh, no!

Please, please! Can’t somebody pull down the frickin’ shade!

I can’t take it anymore!

I swear, I’ll eat my vegetables! 🙂

Enjoy your day! Full Moon Blessings to you!

Astrology July 3, 2012: Full Moon in Capricorn

“Often people attempt to live their lives backwards: they try to have more things, or more money, in order to do more of what they want so that they will be happier. The way it actually works is the reverse. You must first be who you really are, then, do what you need to do, in order to have what you want.” – Margaret Young

COSMIC WATCH:

Full Moons provide us with a chance for full illumination. They are also a time when we are urged to let go of whatever is holding us back. Today’s Full Moon in ambitious Capricorn (2:52 pm EDT), the sign associated with outer achievement, affords us a chance to see how we are honoring our inner self (Cancer) by our life’s work (Capricorn). Or maybe through an avocation.

With today’s Full Moon conjunct perceptive Pluto, we will likely be receiving some kind of feedback about how our present outer path is or is not aligned with what we sense is our soul’s special destiny. Pluto’s activated ray can be very insightful as it helps us to experience what is at our inner core, with Pluto governing our subconscious side. Pluto is also thought to be connected to our past lives, so there could be elements from our karmic past now that are unfolding around us that we should maybe be paying closer attention to.

The Moon-Pluto conjunction may also fill us with a deeper sense of our own power, along with corresponding knowledge of what we must do for ourselves now if we are to continue to progress in the world as our soul originally intended. This Full Moon is also supplying us with a chance perhaps to do some tweaking or revising (Pluto) of our worldly goals and ambitions. Moon-Pluto, at its highest expression, can be very healing and regenerating, but sometimes the playing field must first be leveled for the healing and rebirth to take place.

We may also be receiving fresh insights now into the impact of our early roots (Cancer) upon our lives in the present. This could be due to certain incidents occurring around us that ignite our memories. Also, with rebellious Uranus squaring this Full Moon we may become keenly aware of a need to move beyond some of our early conditioning (Cancer), especially with respect to what we were maybe taught about what was or was not possible for us to achieve in the world (Capricorn).

Enterprising Mars, the planet of initiative, is also shifting into diplomatic Libra today, the sign of “the other.” What this suggests is that we can likely achieve much more now by working together, in the coming weeks ahead, instead of flying solo on our own. “If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself.” Henry Ford

There may also be some exhilarating things happening for us on the personal relationship front as this lunation is also housing lovable Venus in sextile aspect to electrifying Uranus. A time when sudden romance can crop up in the most unexpected of places. “If grass can grow through cement, love can find you at every time in your life.” Cher

The house in our chart that contains the Full Moon in Capricorn is the area of our life that is likely reaching a culminating point for us now. It is also that part of our lives where we may want to be emptying ourselves of what is no longer useful to us. This can also include ridding ourselves of attitudes and self-limiting beliefs that no longer serve us. The Full Moon’s impact lasts two weeks till the next New Moon.

How do you define success? What do you sense that you were born to do? What are you most proud of accomplishing? What one thing do you still want to achieve more than anything else in your life? How do you think the people in your life are helping you to realize your destiny? What could you do to help others to succeed now?

Happy Full Moon blessings!

Astrology October 11, 2011: Full Moon in Aries

11 Tuesday Oct 2011

COSMIC WATCH:

There’s a potent Full Moon in “self-discovery” Aries tonight (10:06 pm EDT), activating 18 degrees of the sign. Full Moons present us with a chance for “full illumination.” They are a time when previously hidden or concealed elements suddenly get a chance to vividly parade before our conscious awareness in full, panoramic view. Deep insights can accordingly be gleaned in this manifestation/disclosure process. Sometimes, these revelations can even be a bit shocking, when ghostly skeletons suddenly emerge from secret, dark closets, imploring us to fully resuscitate them, and give them captive audience, a final time.

Too, there is often a keen desire to want to act quickly on whatever has been presented to us on our mind’s silvery screen during a Full Moon lunation.  Although, it is often wise to let these new epiphanies gel for a few days, before putting their legacy into motion.

A Full Moon occurs when the Moon is exactly opposite the Sun. In this case, the Sun is now passing through balancing Libra, the diplomatic sign of “the other.”  This Full Moon is spotlighting, therefore, the need for independent self-action and self-promotion (Aries)  vs. the need for partnering up (Libra). Ideally, we will want to strive for some sort of harmonious balance now between these two realms. Too, with the Libra Sun applying to a one-degree conjunction with taskmaster Saturn, it is highly unlikely that we will be able to escape our duties or obligations to others now, and go it alone, as Aries is naturally poised to do, since Saturn represents our scope of commitments and earthly karma.

Because serious Saturn also archetypically symbolizes our worries and fears, and sense of loss or limitation, it is possible now that with this Full Moon we will be made more aware of the shadow side of our nature, and as a result, hopefully be given clarity regarding what steps we can take to help assuage or rise above it. Of course, often this healing or ascension process begins by simply facing or acknowledging that there is, indeed, a bedeviled valley within us, a more complex region full of overgrown weeds and broken dreams, that is also very rich fodder for self-growth, and divine wisdom and understanding, once we come to fully embrace it, and own it, and willingly till its soil under the majestic moonlight. Let the spooky skeletons know that we are not afraid of them one bit, so that they may rest in peace. Too, the Aries Full Moon always delights in a good conquest and show of bravado, even if it is with our own inner demons.

“Nothing in the universe can travel at the speed of light, they say, forgetful of the shadow’s speed.” Howard Nemerov

Full Moon in Aries activities: forging ahead with new, personal pet projects, doing something courageous or daring, taking risks, pioneering, taking bold stances, assuming new challenges, reveling in spontaneity, involvement in sports or athletics, hunting, automobile racing.

Happy Full Moon Blessings!

Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius June 15, 2011 Astrology

COSMIC WATCH:

“Life is the hyphen between matter and spirit.” Augustus William Hare and Julius Charles Hare, from “Guesses at Truth, by Two Brothers” (1827)

There’s a Full Moon/Total Lunar Eclipse in “visionary” Sagittarius today (4:14 pm EDT), the sign of the hopeful archer. Sagittarius governs our beliefs and personal philosophy of life and also rules long-distance travel, the law, clergy, and higher education. This eclipse is occurring at 24 degrees of Sagittarius, smack near the Galactic Center. A Full Moon Eclipse is a time of potent release when we empty out our stale contents. It is also a time for wondrous reflection and illumination.

Eclipses often speed up events and can usher in fateful changes that permanently alter the landscape around us. Their influence is said to last up to six months. Whatever house this eclipse is falling in today, in our charts, is where we are presently engaged in a search for more meaning and where we may be needing to tweak, dismantle, or defend some of our beliefs.

“With bow and arrow carefully in tow, we aim to hunt for the higher meaning that we know is purposefully nestled within.

Our gaze is ardently fixed upon the starry firmament above, meticulously scanning for any directional clues that we pray will point the way to our very own, internal cluster of brightly lit constellations, that we sense are all merrily a twinkle now, as they expectantly and eagerly await our joyous arrival on this magical eclipse day.

Yes, we’re going home again. The mother-father, Galactic Center has kindly put down the welcome mat and thoughtfully turned on its brightest lights for us to clearly see our way back to the truth. The whole truth. Nothing but the truth. So help us God. We may even stop and rest a spell in Luckenbach, Texas, with Willie Nelson, to put 74 candles on the late Waylon Jennings’ birthday cake.” 🙂

Happy Eclipse Day!

Astrology March 19, 2011: “The SuperMoon” Full Moon in Virgo

COSMIC WEATHER:

“I am tired, beloved, of chafing my heart against the want of you; of squeezing it into little ink drops, and posting it. And I scald alone, here, under the fire of the great moon.” Amy Lowell

There is a Full Moon today at 28 degrees of “resourceful” Virgo (2:10 pm EDT). This lunation is actually a “Super Moon,” meaning that the Moon is at its closest point to Earth (perigee). The last time we had a “Super Moon” was almost two decades ago. This Full Moon will look much bigger in the sky, especially on the horizon, but the larger size is merely an optical illusion. It will, however, have reportedly greater impact on the tides. Perhaps also on our emotions.

Full Moons tend to bring about “full illumination.” With this Full Moon in logical, analytical Virgo, we have a pitting of the intellect (Virgo) against the emotional (Pisces) self, with the impressionable, imaginative Pisces Sun in opposition to this Moon. With oppositions, we need to find a balance between the two opposing forces. In this case, integrate the “head” (Virgo) with the “heart”(Pisces), the part of us that is more emotionally vulnerable.

Wherever the Virgo Full Moon falls in our personal horoscopes (the house), is the area of life where we may also need to do some extra scrutinizing or refinement (Virgo). Also, some elimination, as Full Moons are times of release. Virgo likes to systematically take things apart for study under a microscope.  This sign symbolically rules the intestines in the body which break down food substances into digestible particles. It could be the affairs of that part of our life where the Full Moon occurs need to be reviewed in “minute detail” with eye towards improvement. Virgo the Virgin, or “Maiden,” seeks purity or perfection. Likes to fix broken situations. Restore order.

Too, this Full Moon opposes “change-agent” Uranus in Aries, a planet associated with “sudden breakthroughs,” sort of a harmonious tie-in with the “revelatory nature” of a Full Moon. Especially this Full Moon in Virgo, a zodiacal sign which intrinsically tends to be more insightful.

Unpredictable Uranian energies are also more “highly charged” and with mutable Virgo, the sign of work, being more nervous and restless, we may want to make sure that we keep ourselves fully occupied now, both physically and mentally, and also try to just “go with the Uranian flow” of electrifying energies.  The Virgo Moon always wants to be productive. It also desires to be of service to others. Definitely an admirable trait.

“The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.” Mohandas Gandhi

Additionally, the Full Moon forms an awkward quinqunx to “disguising” Neptune, the natural ruler of Pisces, so we may also have to be prepared to deal with or manage some more confusing or nebulous issues (Neptune) that could suddenly arise. The “astute” Virgo Moon with its incredible powers of perception will likely, however, be able to deftly help us “pierce the veil” of Neptunian illusion and dispel any fogginess.

Full Moon in Mick Jagger’s Leo February 18, 2011 Astrology Horoscope

“Fear not, we are the nature of the lion, and cannot descend to the destruction of of mice and small beasts.” Elizabeth I

There’s a Full Moon at 29 degrees of “drama queen” Leo on February 18, 2011 (3:36 am EST). Too, this “Hollywood-style” Full Moon does not disappoint in the “drama department” with it’s exact opposition to glittery, seductive Neptune in brotherly love Aquarius. Full Moons traditionally deliver “full illumination,” although with Neptune’s veiled ray amplified here, it may be a challenge to decode what’s really going on around us now.

Ensnaring Neptune governs fantasy, illusion, dreams, delusion, sacrifice, surrender, self-doubt, escape. While the theatrical Leo Moon craves praise, applause and ego recognition. It wants to wield formidable power. It could be that this Leo Full Moon serves as a barometer to check the health of our ego. Also, our susceptibility to flattery. Too, it may have the net affect of making us more humble, which isn’t such a bad thing either. Additionally, this is a highly creative Full Moon especially for film-making, acting, writing, dancing, music, painting.

(BTW, at the 53rd annual Grammy Awards show on Sunday night, the transiting Moon was at 28-29 degrees of idea-minded Gemini forming a trine to imaginative Neptune and a square to genius Uranus, and the level of creativity at the event was at a fever pitch. We have an equivalent energy here, perhaps even more so with the “entertainment” Leo Moon at 29 degrees.)

Individually, we will want to check out what house in our horoscope this lunation is falling in to see where all this captivating, “suspenseful drama” and creativity will be playing out.

Also at the time of this Full Moon, Love Goddess Venus in professional Capricorn is exactly square to withholding Saturn in romantic Libra. It may be that, like Leo, Mick Jagger, we have to try harder to get “satisfaction” in the bedroom or the boardroom.

Overall, too, I think the song Satisfaction is a perfect tie-in with this particular Full Moon, in showy Leo, with the emotional Moon’s agonizing opposition to “ego-denying” Neptune. A time when we may be meeting up with a certain amount of rebuff no matter where we turn. We could also experience some existential discontent or disillusionment with the general nature of things in the collective (Aquarius). Of course, if we keep focused on our core values and personal mission statements, we’ll be just fine. Eventually. Once this Neptunian curtain is lifted and Mick Jagger finally takes center stage, along with the anchoring, Keith Richards. 🙂

Full Moon in Cancer January 19, 2011

“The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom on which you will always find forgiveness.” Honore de Balzac

Full Moons offer us a chance for full awareness, or full illumination. We tend to see things “more clearly” with Full Moons. The Full Moon that we have on January 19th occurs at 29 degrees of Cancer (4:22 pm EST), which is the very last degree of the sign. Moon-ruled Cancer is the sign of motherly love. Home and family. It governs nurturing and self-protection. The Cancer experience provides us with a heightened sense of our own continuation, an awareness of our roots.

With this Full Moon occurring at the very end of sensitive Cancer, there symbolically seems to be more of an urgency to it. When planets are at the last degrees, we are wrapping things up. Too, this Full Moon forms a harmonious trine to both “opportunity” Jupiter, at 29 degrees of surrendering Pisces, and to “awakening” Uranus at 27 degrees of Pisces. This suggests the possibility of an emotional breakthrough.

Individually, we will want to look at our personal horoscopes to see what house in our chart this Full Moon is falling in, as to where this breakthrough or full awareness may be occurring. It is likely that we will also see an uptick in general activity or movement in those affairs designated by the house containing the Full Moon.

Full Moons are a time of release. This Full Moon in “clinging to the familiar” Cancer may be an ideal time for us to symbolically release old hurts and wounds from our past, especially from our familial past. By emptying ourselves of this emotionally depleting arsenal, we make it possible for our more tender, nurturing impulses to again reign.

“Let your hopes, not your hurts, shape your future.” Robert H. Schuller.
