AstroRain Report August September 10-16
On the way to Total Lunar Eclipse Sunday next few days may include a heightened sense of immediacy to all the most crucial intentions, purposes, plans, and what lies in the way of manifesting them. As if there wasn’t already what seems like a bucket load of that accompanying the usual course of life these days! However the big helpful, in some cases life saving, reminder comes in loud and clear if we’ll just give it space; staying with ourselves in full and fearless authenticity and personal integrity we have more resources and cosmic support than imaginable. All we could possibly need and more.
Mercury’s shift to Virgo just started off with an awkward or tense aspect to Neptune, perhaps passing confusion as to what serves our purposes best. However the curious and precision oriented planet ultimately pointing us in the right direction in those matters if we just observe and listen deeply. Much pausing needed between what we’ve just done and whatever’s next on the agenda in the day to day as Pisces eclipse requires. Pause, breathe, check in before next step, will save a load of trouble and chaos later. Make space for imagination, intuition, cherished dreams to maximize the available magic of the Solar Eclipse New Moon starting point. That’s 2 weeks after the Lunar Eclipse’s completions, unloading burdens, forgiveness, and washing away any lingering murkiness. And remembering the process is the important part as all cannot happen at once. Endings and beginnings over at least the next 6 months while using ecplipse power times for significant energy boost.
Wed 3 Capricorn Moon opposing Jupiter early presents more opportunities for bringing together ambitions of the material world and the need for real human connection, along with appreciation for other than human relations. Cardinal earth sign’s lunar pass always support getting down to business in one way or another but can decline into feelings of not being or doing enough. Latter possibility to be avoided or energy available for the day’s purposes drops significantly. Step by step, not skipping any step along the way is Capricorn’s wise advise when feeling too much to do, not enough time and resources. Evening lunar square to Chiron can ignite agitation and may require resistance to any attempts at control. “Molto Agitato” in the world and among our cohorts, within our personal journey’s demands, all pressing for increasing discernment and compassion.
Thurs 4 Early morning aspects with Neptune, Uranus, Pluto by Aquarius Moon probably gives this day a feel of out of bounds, weird, spacey and/or full of previously unknown or unconsidered possibilities. Communications may get tricky close to midday, care advised in sending unedited messages or making ill considered statements overall. More information may be needed. Meanwhile Mars in Libra in an emotionally charged square to Jupiter today wants us to find the best actions we can take to benefit all involved. Adding to that energetic charge is Uranus’s stationing to turn retrograde in the next 24 hours, signaling in no uncertain terms that anything goes.
Fri 5 With Moon in the sign Uranus rules the planetary pivot today comes with amplification of the “Divine Lightening Bolt”. Wherever early degrees of Gemini fall in natal charts has been an area of ongoing disruptions, changes, innovations and multiplied a few times over right now. Best we can do is be ready to roll with it. Aquarius Moon’s aspects with Jupiter and Mars in the afternoon encourage shifting into a higher perspective, being creative, makiing progress in group or one to one dynamics. Mars and Jupiter are closing in on a square aspect that will come into full bloom at the eclipse Sunday.
Sat 6 Pisces Moon has changed the mood to open, fluid, allowing space for whatever comes our way rather than looking to make things happen. Late morning square to high vibrational Uranus in its exciting Gemini glory says laughing at ourselves and our human follies is best preparation for eclipse only 24 hours away. In fact the wisdom of Allowing is most healing for us in the midst of a hyper competitive, hyper busy, hyper stimulating environment designed to keep us from our most authentically creative and compassionate inner resources. So prominent in our world is the earthly-cosmic mandate for re-learning how to be human, to end the brutal and pervasive slaughter of life, from our human relatives to the plant, animal, mineral, elemental relatives of Gaia’s biosphere.
Sun 7 Total Lunar Eclipse is an extra long one this year, with Full Moon perfected at 11:07 AM PDT. This long moment of immersion in the significant endings for each of us, and for our world, exactly matches the one on September 7, 2006. This is known as an especially meaningful 19 year cycle. Looking back to that eclipse, and what was prominent in our lives, reveals where we’re going to the next level now in the matter(s) of that time. What was completing then and what did that lead to in the subsequent months?
Moon at 16th degree of mutable water sign sits at North Node with the path forward leading to chaos and undoing unless we’re surrendering to and following the spiritual values, the essence of natural law, the wisdom of the many life affirming, life generating traditions that have kept humanity going for untold millennia. Anything else will manifest as growing misery in our lives and in the collective we’re part of. For those at or over age 27 at the time of the 2006 eclipse the finality of this moment is particularly powerful as are the wide open opportunities ahead. But we must do our work. Moon trine Jupiter in Cancer reinforces the emotional quality of the event and the possibilities for accessing the right information, tools, tactics for our purposes as well as the best allies to work with. But Moon quincunx Venus requires a shift, perhaps in a relationship or in the values we’ve been living.
Perpetuation of enduring life affirming values, especially the quality of reciprocity embedded in all areas of life, called for by Pisces Full Moon. In the smallest ways we can incorporate more every day, and fully supported by “reliance upon one’s inner source of inspiration or guidance” (Dane Rudhyar) in a description of this lunar degree, amplified as a total eclipse. “The inspiration, original and individual though it may be, is given a form which is conditioned by the cultural, social and religious background of the creative person.” In other words though the creative inspiration/expression is uniquely ours the energy and drive behind that flow “has arisen in the vast collective mind.”(D.R.) Something becoming more and more apparent as the evolutionary wheels keeps turning.
Mon 8 Pisces Moon joins Saturn late morning as it meanders off void of course before entering Aries 11:37 am, referring us back to whatever unfinished business is in process of completion, especially in light of the 19 year cycle just completing. Aries Moon arrives with reinforcement of the “just be” theme in a merge with Neptune 1:33 pm. Rest of the afternoon gets more exciting as Uranus and Pluto receive Luna’s next contacts, very likely pushing for a ready and willing approach for the next big developments. Along with the question “where do I best fit in”?
Tues 9 Moon’s firey passage morning into late afternoon includes cautions not to move faster than is necessary and check all important details, information, equipment before proceeding with latest inspiration. Evening Venus, Jupiter, Mars lunar meetings can be fun, restless, even more inspiring, but still necessary to not get ahead of ourselves. Much more fun and fulfilling taking each step with intention and gratitude.
