Dear Friend and Reader:
We are about to have a very bigly Full Moon. It is opposite this thing called the Great Attractor that nobody understands and I only pretend to. It is the gravitational convergence point of 100,000 galaxies including our own. See what I mean?
And where would this gem be located? In Sagittarius of course! Right in the middle! The Moon is involved because it reaches full phase at 6:14 pm Thursday, exactly opposite this point, with the Sun conjunct it.
The Moon is small and it’s sensitive, and in Gemini it wants to chat with the neighbors and interview every cat and dog it meets. And in a little while it’s going to be at maximum light opposite 100,000 galaxies.
If the medium is the message, then the message here is scale. Big things are happening. Even bigger thugs are happening. If you dare to look at the front page of The New York Times, I suggest utilizing self-delusion to make it easier. Do NOT hit the vape first; you will find yourself feeling extremely paranoid.
Just keep saying to yourself, “I’m reading a bad science fiction novel, but for some reason I cannot put it down. This isn’t really happening! I can just leave this book on the train and it’ll all be over.” But you’re more likely to feel tipsy and ask why exactly you incarnated at this time. There must be a reason. There must be a reason. There must there must there must. Reeses Filled Pretzels? Ppang Bujang salted butter chocolate candy? Taylor Swift?
About Those Damned Foreigners
Interesting that with the Sun making bold moves in the international sign of Sagittarius, a new war on “immigrants” is being waged. That word translates to people here on visas or living legally with a green card. We were sold deportation of brutal thugs and savage gangsters. We got the deportaton of nannies and salad cooks.
This week we are hearing about Somalis being declared garbage by POTUS and all Afghanis being blamed for one of them allegedly shooting two National Guard members. The one actually said to have done it was a former CIA soldier/asset during the U.S. massacre, mineral extraction and drug operation in Afghanistan.
Does anyone remember anything? Blaming “foreigners” for a country’s problems is usually a sign that it’s slipping down a bottomless pit. Put this together with the administration (sorry, I’m trying not to say “Trump”) having a policy of shooting fishermen on “suspicion of trafficking drugs” while pardoning former Honduran president Juan Orlando Hernández for smuggling cocaine in the United States and it’s amazing anyone’s mind does not melt down.
Hernández was at the beginning of a 45-year term in federal prison after being convicted of his crimes in federal court in 2024. I have read that in his New York City lockup, he was roomies with alleged crypto fraudster Sam Bankman Fried.
(Cue the theme from The Odd Couple.)
How much cocaine, you might ask? Or you might not ask, but I’ll tell you anyway.
He was convicted of smuggling an estimated 400 tons of the white pony onto the streets and into the skyscrapers of the United States. Not grams. It’s easy to be sentenced to several years in a federal pen just for 400 grams.
It’s easy to have your life marred by possession of one gram of a white powder. A gram is about the weight of a paper clip. Hernández was convicted of using his power to import 400 tons of cocaine into the United States. A ton is a million grams. I bet you didn’t know that; neither did I. I had to look it up. Here are some photos to spur your imagination of what ‘tons of cocaine’ looks like — these are said to be crime scene photos, offered to give you a sense of scale.
Pardoned.
Maybe he was innocent. He looks like a sweet person. He did say he would “stuff the drugs right up the noses of the gringos.” Maybe he meant allergy spray. Maybe he meant PCR “covid test” swabs. Maybe there was a mistranslation and he meant “stocking stuffer for the office Christmas party.”
The government is in the drug business. Remember the Iran-Contra scandal? That was in the 1980s, when the United States was “shippin’ powders back and forth / singin’ black goes south and white comes north.”
A Brief Note About the Law (and then more about the Full Moon)
Sagittarius is the sign of the “higher law,” such as federal or international rather than local. With this kind of crap going on (and don’t forget the fishermen being shot). I love the law and would have made a devoted attorney or judge — in another lifetime maybe but thank the lord not this one.
It is difficult to take seriously the officious demeanors of judges and prosecutors with crap like this going on (and there is a lot more, they all know this is is the norm and not the deviation). I was once charged with watching my girlfriend get arrested for stealing a teeshirt from the U.C. Davis bookstore. My crusty old public defender said, “The judge takes this kind of crime seriously.” (I pleaded nolo in Yolo.)
This shit goes on all the time. But now, the difference is, the corruption is being stuffed up the noses of the gringos. What is going on here?
Well, it’s distraction which is to say that it’s pure rage bait.
People get in more trouble for raw milk or having a pet squirrel — which are also rage bait.
It’s not just a corruption festival. It’s being pushed and pushed hard. And somehow just to make you feel even more unstable, the Dominionists and Evangelicals and many Jews think that Trump is some kind of messiah or Second Coming or sign thereof.
Don’t think about that for too long or you might go insane.
As Bigly as it Gets
This Full Moon describes something as vast and incomprehensible as it gets. It’s kind of like the Moon opposite the Universe. I mean this is as literally as is possible.
The Full Moon localizes events and makes them real and noticeable. It can have that distinct feeling of a bubble bursting or a deadlock releasing or something giving way. It can keep you up at night even if you’re not dancing naked by the fire.
But this one is special. To one side is the Gemini Moon. To the other is the Sun and the Great Attractor, which is the focal point of the entire local universe. Right nearby is the core of the Milky Way galaxy (see the videos for better explanations of what this looks like).
And the whole thing is strung along the lunar nodal axis — where personal and collective karma are transacted. Both the Moon and the Sun (and everything behind the Sun) are square the nodes. In natal astrology, if you have any planet square the nodes you probably deal with it every day.
There is something way way way out of balance here and the Full Moon is wanting to do its little part to tip the scales back.
Seemingly modest aspects like a lunation can be the precipitating factor in something much, much larger. But this is more a weather report than a news report.
In the videos below, I do my best to break it down visually. I promise these presentations will not waste your time. If you have to pick one, the second one down is more concise.

With love,
Your faithful astrolover,
