As promised, a brief comment on the Aries New Moon. Mercury has already entered Aries, and the Moon will join it just past 1 am New York time. This Moon-Mercury conjunction commences the Aries New Moon, with a spectacular little conjunction on the Aries Point. Luna and Mercury join Venus, Eris and the Sun already in Aries.<\/p>\n

At this moment the Sun is conjunct Achilles, a minor planet associated with crisis of false lack of self-confidence. An impressive array of other minor planets is in range of this conjunction, including Apophis (near-miss catastrophe), Bienor and Nemesis. Amidst much uncertainty and doubt there is strength.<\/p>\n

The New Moon will be trine the South Node of the Moon, which is in Leo. Of note, this is also the interior conjunction of the Sun and Venus. The proper term for this is inferior conjunction<\/strong><\/a>, but as with a few other things in astrology, I am taking the liberty of improving the name (there nothing inferior here but there is definitely something interior). In plain English, Venus is exactly between the Earth and the Sun. There are not too many more of these — I haven’t worked it out yet, either one or two — until the Venus transit of the Sun of June 2012. Here is a little more about the most recent Venus transit of the Sun<\/strong><\/a> (which can only take place during Venus retrograde, and involves Venus coming between the Earth and the Sun, only near one of the nodes of Venus; yes, just like the Moon, Venus has nodes — as does every planet).<\/p>\n

The exact moment of the New Moon is just past noon Thursday Eastern Time.<\/p>\n

For those with their mind on Kaila and her community, I spent a really excellent afternoon with Tobi (Kaila’s mom) and Simone (her childhood friend and lover). We looked at pictures, told stories, played Under Pressure<\/strong><\/a>, and kept our hearts and minds tuned to Kaila as she makes her transition. Thank you again for all the emails of love and support. — EF, at Dominick’s Cafe in Kingston NY.<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n

PS, just about everyone knows this song for its bass line, maybe even your grandmother. Here is the last fire-breathing stanza, apocalyptic and free. Play it loud, you will feel better. Kaila, we love you.

Insanity laughs under pressure we’re cracking
\nCan’t we give ourselves one more chance
\nWhy can’t we give love that one more chance
\nWhy can’t we give love give love give love give love
\ngive love give love give love give love give love
\n‘Cause love’s such an old fashioned word
\nAnd love dares you to care for
\nThe people on the edge of the night
\nAnd loves dares you to change our way of
\nCaring about ourselves
\nThis is our last dance
\nThis is our last dance
\nThis is ourselves
\nUnder pressure
\nUnder pressure
\nPressure<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
