This morning we wake up to a
busy Moon in Cancer. Overnight, she opposed Pluto at 3:53 AM. In our
mid-morning, she will meet Jupiter by sparkling sextile (10:17 AM),
Chiron by watery trine (11:06) and Uranus in a fiery and catalytic
square (11:52 AM). Can you see how Jupiter opposite Chiron and Uranus
and Aries are working together? Jupiter is waxing into opposition
with Chiron, shining a spotlight on our collective pain and illness.
Have you not seen it on the news? Sickness, disease, confusion, pain
in some form or another is on center stage.
Uranus is semi-sextile
Chiron and inconjunct Jupiter. Some of the headlines are shocking, to
say the least. I feel we are being made undeniably aware of this
sickness and what have you. The Universe keeps poking us in our sore
spots asking, “Are you awake yet?”
In essence, we keep stubbing
our collective toes on the same damn rocks over and over again.
Uranus is here, not only to shock us, but to wake us up to that fact
while giving us a chance to foster a sense of social awareness and
come together to do things differently...or at least make an attempt
at thinking about how we can do things differently. Brainstorming and
debating over new solutions to long standing problems. Experimenting
with new methods. Raising our intelligence on matters that surely
cannot go unchecked for much longer. Unfortunately, so many are so
swamped, victimized and martyred by Jupiter/Chiron that we have not
reached the point where we have many solutions. We are too busy
dealing with the emotionality that accompanies the equation. This is
especially true when the Moon waxes in and fires all this up making
the situations hit so close to home that we are personally affected
by them.
I will remind you, though,
that Uranus is due to flip direct at the end of December. Then, from
January 8 to the beginning of March in 2016, Jupiter will be running
backward. We will retrace all these steps, review and re-assess what
we've learned and be more able to come to progressive conclusions in
regard to how to handle it. This occurs all the way up to mid-Pisces
season. Then, when we reach the Spring of Aries season, our time to
begin anew and employ this collectively acquired wisdom beckons. Mind
you, all this occurs on a personal level as well as a collective
level. So if you are wrestling with something...memories,
metaphorical hauntings, illness flare ups, unexpected washouts of any
kind, death, remorse, pain (and many MANY are) give it time. The
story is only beginning to unfold.
By 9:47 PM, the Moon is in a
sweet sextile with Venus in Virgo. She finds Mars in Virgo by
sextile, as well, shortly after. From here, she is Void until 10:48
AM on Monday.
Meanwhile, Mercury slithers
over into Scorpio at 2:07 AM. That makes me smile. The little
nicey-nice doily drops from over our mouth, thoughts deepen and we
become investigative and mentally probing. We start asking questions,
again, instead of just taking information at face value. We take the
information we are given and pick it apart while asking and looking
for “Why...what am I missing here?” Saying something with a smile
is not good enough anymore. We want meat and depth in our
information.

This morning, the Moon is
Void in Cancer until entering Leo at 10:48 AM. This brings a rather
quiet and dull start to our day. For a Monday, I'll take it.
Sometimes dull and routine is nice.
I don't expect the
complacency to last the entirety of the day, though. The Moon squares
off with Mercury in Scorpio at 12:06 PM. Watch your dirty sailor
mouth around the little ones! Don't destroy the creativity of your
inner child with your paranoia. You could meet with a youngster that
asks...those questions...you know, the one's you know the answer to
but have no idea how to tell those answers to an innocent? There is
also a chance for emotionally charged verbal conflict here. Happening
as a battle between the Scorpio and Lion? Some of those verbal
interactions could seem as if both parties are slashing for the
jugular. Heated. And...falling in a fixed signs. No one is exactly
flexible in their point of view or how they feel about it. A
disagreement gridlock is entirely possible in this situation.
Things do steady a bit as
the day moves forward. By 7:00 PM the Moon is in a nice stabilizing
trine with Saturn in Sagittarius. Emotions are settled and grounded.
The truth produces ground we can stand on. We are reminded to aim to
do the right thing. That's all that needed here. The right thing. Not
the self-righteous thing.
Then, at 8:11 PM, Venus
catches Mars in Virgo by conjunction at 24 Virgo 02. Our efforts
expended in the name of service to others or in clean up efforts in
general are blessed. We are rewarded for our efficiency and
practicality. You can take a compliment in earnest if you receive it
today. Mercury in Scorpio only says “thank you” when he means it
from his core.
The Sabian Symbol for this
conjunction reads: A flag at half-mast in front of a large public
building. The ability to carry a task through to consummate
completion. Deference to past achievement. Cultivation of public
spirit. (taken from Dane Rudhyar's book The Wheel of Significance.)
Doesn't sound all warm and snuggly to me. Not like you would expect a
Venus and Mars conjunction to be (even if our efforts directed in
service are subtly blessed). Remember...Venus is in her Fall here.
She appreciates small, humble and modest efforts and expects Mars to
follow in tow. Not with his warring destructive capacity...but with
his Yin...which is something Mars is not particularly comfortable
with for the most part. He has a tendency to very Yang to say the
least. But, it is the Yin that we need the most right now. We are
“attacking” with efforts to help using mops, buckets and
brooms...not bombs, guns or violent force. Or at least that's what we
SHOULD be doing. Doesn't mean everyone will self direct themselves
that way.

In all honesty, today looks
pretty harsh. I hate to say that. But, I also hate to lie...so. We
wake up to the elements of Leo and Scorpio in battle once more. This
time the energy comes via our Last Quarter Moon (7:24 AM). The Moon
is waning now. We are being called to release more than we try to
hang on. But, with the Sun in Scorpio and the Moon in Leo, control
and selfishness could certainly be factors. Let go. Whatever it is
release it. Control thyself and purge the toxins...allow the thorns
to be purged. Know this is likely to hurt, though.
Following this Last Quarter,
there are a slew of minor aspects that occur. Subtleties that color in
the personal aspects of what is happening in our world. Mercury is
semi-square Jupiter and sesiquisquare Chiron. The Moon creates a Yod
with Pluto and Chiron (remember how to use the Yod? If not, go back
to last weeks write up to clue you in). Then, right in the middle of
this, Jupiter perfects in his first opposition with Chiron (4:52 PM).
Yes. We know exactly where our “wounded knees” are. Undeniably
so.
At the end of the day we are
given an opportunity to break free from some of this angst. The Moon
finds Uranus by invigorating and catalyzing trine at 8:47 PM. Break
your dependencies. Let go. Release your grip on your pain. However,
nervousness and anxiety could be factors. It can be scary to release
your grip on “the way you've always known things to be” even if
that way is continually poisoning you---stepping into the unknown is
scary even if the unknown could hold promise. I know this. But, in
the long run, letting go of it and disallowing it from continuing to
control you is best in the long-term. Today offers us an opportunity
to peer deeply into what is making us (collectively or individually)
sick and twisted. Awareness of a problem is the first step in making
things better. The second step is letting go of the things we are
holding to that keep steering us in the direction of sickness. It's
time to do things differently and we can't do that until we...well,
let go of past methods and start doing things differently. Be easy
with yourself and give others plenty of room to process today. From
here, the Moon is void until entering Virgo at 9:23 PM tomorrow
night. We'll be ready for this break, I'm sure.

The Moon is Void all day
today. She doesn't enter Virgo until 9:23 PM. Rest. Process. Toil and
wrap up loose ends. Heal, self-nurture and triage. It's a quiet and
introspective day. Take advantage of that.

The lights on the Moon are
back on this morning. Unfortunately, that light comes with some harsh
truths as the Moon squares off with Saturn at 6:36 AM. Depressive
emotions are entirely possible. Folks could be inclined to be
critical of themselves as well as others. Blame could be
inappropriately based as we try to come to terms with everything that
Jupiter/Chiron has exposed.
I encourage you to be
unabashedly honest with yourself without steering toward hauling the
blame around for stuff you could not prevent or control. Hold
yourself accountable for only the things you are truly accountable
for. And, be mindful of where you are pointing your fingers of blame.
Make sure they are aimed in the right direction. While knowing no one
has the authority to dictate your perspective. You are in charge of
that. I suggest you take the reins and build it truthfully.
By 8:12 AM the Moon is in
sextile to Mercury in Scorpio. These two factions work nicely
together offering the opportunity to really get down to the nitty
gritty details of whatever matter we choose. As the Moon is involved,
emotions are a factor. These are, likely, no light matters that we
contemplating and investigating.
That emotionality becomes
HUGELY apparent as the Moon opposes Neptune at 11:36 AM. The chance
for tears is high in this day. The details we uncover could be more
than we can bear. Shhh...easy now. Give all that time to simmer while
you embark on some meticulous self-care.
By 5:00 PM, Jupiter is
officially inconjunct to Uranus. Unexpected solutions could magically
appear.
As the sky darkens, so do we
as the Sun finds Pluto by revitalizing and empowering sextile at
10:57 PM. Release your bitterness, pain, remorse, shame, worry and
guilt. Allow Pluto to transform and empower you. Vow to survive
because you certainly have to power to do so now. Yesterday and this
morning there is potential for us to be shoved under water, smacked
up against walls and cornered by depression. However, there is also a
potential for Phoenix's to shoot up and out of the ashes here too.
At midnight, the Moon also
finds Pluto but by trine while subsequently holding a sextile to the
Sun in Scorpio. This mini-trine energy is Earthy, Practical,
Supportive and packs a need for integrity, diligence and a
willingness to get our hands dirty through service. Clean from the
inside out. Literally. This is an excellent time for detoxing
efforts, emotional purges and rectifications. Self-defeating options
need to be crossed from your list because we aren't doing that shit
anymore. We are surviving here.

Rainy. Potentially gloomy.
Wet. The Moon in Virgo opposes Chiron in Pisces as Mercury in Scorpio
perfects in trine to Neptune in Pisces at 8:39 AM. The fog is thick
and lingers a bit longer than usual this morning. Drizzling, hazy
skies are to be expected at the least. I personally think we may have
some seriously detrimental weather to deal with in some areas at the
end of this week. We shall see.
The Moon remains active
today. She finds Jupiter by conjunction at 9:04 AM. Whatever we are
feeling grows and expands. Remember, this conjunction re-ignites the
waning Jupiter/Chiron opposition. It also re-ignites the waning
Jupiter/Uranus inconjunct. Don't just become aware of the pain and
sickness. Do something about it.
Doing something about it is
reinforced overnight and into tomorrow morning as the Moon finds Mars
(3:25 AM) and Venus (7:48 AM) before resting in Void status for a few
hours. Rest. Heal. Nurse. Triage. Restore.
Saturday, November 7, 2015
The Moon is Void at 7:48 AM
following her check-in with Venus in Virgo. She remains Void until
entering Libra at 10:15 AM. We are given a brief chance to stabilize
our emotions.
Emotional stabilization
continues to be a factor as the lights on the Moon come back on. The
first aspect Luna makes is a supportive sextile with Saturn in
Sagittarius. Come to terms with the truth and the reality of the
situation....whatever that situation may be for you.
Today is a wonderful day for
gathering supportive folks around you. Seek the advice and input of
wise elders. Work very, very hard to get your emotional body back
into solid footing. Share the truth...AND ONLY THE TRUTH..NO
FLUFFING!...that you are discovering to the folks you are in
relationship with. Check sources and fact check BEFORE YOU SHARE
ANYTHING WITH A PUBLIC AUDIENCE...dammit :) Let's end emotionally
catalyzing and lying Facebook meme's. Shall we? Foster a sense of
responsibility and accountability for the information you publish. We
can't get mad at how the news entities have a tendency to report
things just because they make “good headlines” when we,
ourselves, are subsequently publishing unchecked shit ourselves just
for more “likes” or whatever. See how that works? Mad at what's
being reported, skewed, not reported or what have you? Look in the
mirror.
Overall, today does bring us
an opportunity to gather support and grasp some emotional grounding.
Get your feet underneath you. Tomorrow the sky keeps shifting and the
banjo strings on our emotional body are pulled TIGHT! You are going
to want to be stable ground ahead of that potential. The opportunity
is being offered to you today. Don't skip it.
