Friends, Romans, Readers:
We’re in the last few days before the New Moon, which is to say — in the extreme waning phase. This is a seed moment and also one of completion. With a little practice it’s possible to work both at once during these last few days of the lunar cycle. Today the Moon is making its way through the final degrees of Pisces, and as of this writing is about to form a conjunction to the Venus/Mars conjunction in the last degree of Pisces.
Then both the Moon and Mars ingress Aries and conjoin the Aries Point. This is one of those moments where the momentum of change is gathering, even though the Moon happens to be waning…this particular waning cycle is the seed of a moment of renewal.
We can see this signaled in another set of conjunctions (not only Venus to Mars, but the triple conjunction of Jupiter, Chiron and Neptune working out all year, and peaking now). One last one to add to the mix is that for the next 24 hours, the Sun will be crossing over the degree where Chiron was discovered, nearly 32 years ago in early Taurus.
True that today the Moon will square Pluto, and then Mars will do so and finally Venus — which is suggesting that this is a time to keep a clear inner focus. The world may not feel like a party (but you never know, if you’re only following the astrology there are a lot of reasons to live it up). These internal aspects remind us where our focus needs to be, so that we can stay clear about who we are and what we want and let that sense of clarity radiate outward into the world.
The Taurus New Moon is Friday at 11:22 pm ET.
I will say again that these are special times; unusual in their potential, as new realms of awareness open up for us. I am seeing this as a vast collective psychic meeting place, as indicated by the perfect fusion of Aquarius and Pisces — and today with Aries coming into the picture, sparking up the initiative necessary to make anything happen; you know, the cosmic ignition key: Mars on the Aries Point. If you are available for something in particular, signal that availability. You know: open heart, third eye.
Keep your mind on what is positive and on what you want to create. We are in a manifestation vortex to rival the Hall of Records in the Great Pyramid at Giza.
Love & lovingly,
jlo, thank you so much for your siting. You are awesome as usual you funkster.
Elsewise, it’s chiron chiron chiron. The “past lives”, the present life shadow layers, it all comes together. The 1990 eclipse in Aquarius and this years conjuncting my natal chiron. . . the processing I did then and the techniques used really paid off this time around. That all brought it around along with alot of shattering glass in my environment to get my attention.
Alot of the astrological info I’ve been honing has come home to roost. Cocklefuckindoodle. I feel like I’m down to behavior modification. Give it up for awareness.
Can I be done with my chiron return at long last?
thanks, Eric. I like the way you think. As I work on my own composition this new moon I really appreciate your input.
Tracy wrote to me and said that Moon-Venus was an occultation; that is, an eclipse of Venus by the Moon.
Mary, I would say invite them in with confidence. The fact that people don’t always respond to our overtures doesn’t mean we should stop composing. I think we could all use to be a little more communicative. Part of unchoosing is not beating one’s head against people who don’t want to show up. An invitation is just that.
What with all the extraordinary astrology happening, a true healing opportunity may be in the offing for relationships … um, I’m not sure how to ask this gently enough … rather than simply “un-choosing” those who might suggest a divisive element, is there something that we might do for others who want into our lives?
As they’re splitting, the moon looks like a pulse wave pulling off the venus/mars, and heading toward the sun, with purpose! (Although rather slowly, it’s pretty damn tense, but it’s got an exciting, even promising vibe)
Have yourselves a beautiful day,
Smiles
This is a double eclipse happening right now! It’s like a tight-ass portal when I stare into them (massive pull)!
Back to staring!
Ya I forgot declination! Thank you.
Have you checked the declination on the moon, venus, mars?!? All within 4 degrees, riding the 0 point!
I’m on the west coast right now watching this go down! It’s freakin’ smokin’! The crescent moon is swallowing venus which is swallowing mars! Crazy energy to watch!
Anyway, back outdoors!
