New Moon Report for Friday, March 2 – Mercury In Aries

 

 

Mercury in Aries

Friday, March 2, 3:41 am PST, 6:41 am EST

Brainy Mercury blasts into headstrong Aries to heat up conversations and fire off brilliant new ideas. Intellectual excitement is understandable, but it’s wise to maintain some self-restraint as the messenger planet is slowing down and will turn retrograde on March 12. Hurry up and wait might be the mantra of this misleading transit that incites concepts which are a little ahead of their time and require reconsideration before they’re ready to share.

Guide To The Universe – Neptune in Pisces

Neptune in Pisces

Boundlessness

By Molly Hall

Neptune is in the sign it rules, Pisces, from April 4 to August 4th, 2011 AND Feb 3, 2012 to Jan 27, 2026. The archetype of Neptune, as one

of unveiling, merging, mesmerizing, heightens the sense of life as a dream. It initiates

 

a fluid time, of understanding our role to play as souls, and slipping out of limiting masks and beliefs, in favor of more inclusive ones.

Themes: end of time (as we know it), multi-dimensionality, spiritual devotion, first-hand connection to God/Goddess, miracles of healing,

 forgiveness, telepathy, remote viewing, actively dreaming the future, parallel realities, changing the present, by changing the past, higher states of consciousness, third-eye, soul contracts, unity consciousness.

Fascinations: healing wounds of time, unveilings (apocalypse), perceiving dimensions, life as dream or nightmare, love across time, the Feminine, reconciliation, profound healing, artistic renaissance, immense power of the imagination, the tyranny of belief, subtle energies, stargates, time travel, galactic family, color and sound, mythos, mysticism.

Fanaticisms:Cults, subliminal messages, political stagecraft, masked or stolen identities, grand deception, faked news, masters of illusion, savior or destroyer, victims and victimizers.

Neptune is one of the transpersonal planets, that is a big player in the longer human story. We find it in our lives, where we meet the mystery and a sense of oneness. It’s messages are delivered on the big screen (cinema), art, music, symbols we see everyday, in mass hysteria or ecstasy, or shared experiences that border on the supernatural.

Neptune is in its own sign Pisces relatively briefly in 2011 (April 4 to August 4), giving us a taste of what’s to come with this long transit. Neptune will go back into Pisces from February 3, 2012 to January 27th, 2026. We’ll all be swimming in the Neptunian depths for a long time.

Urge to Merge

Neptune is completing a cycle in Pisces, with all that’s been swirling across time rising and returning to the ocean of consciousness. We become more aware of the timeless soul, and the multi-dimensional nature of reality.

Neptune dissolves, so much can be healed, like past historic traumas and victimizations. From the most forsaken lows to euphoric highs, Neptune’s higher wisdom helps us move through and evolve.

Pisces is a sign of compassion, empathy, and excluding no person or living thing outside the web of life. This can be a time of great changes of heart, where enemies become friends, and we come to the aid of the suffering.

We search for higher love, that’s right for the soul’s purpose. It can be a time of updating soul contracts of all kinds.

Sans Frontiers

The boundaries between us are more permeable, with Neptune in Pisces. This makes it easier to empathize, though at times we may feel we’re aching for the whole world. The experience of oneness in crisis, or bliss, is a wave that can transform what’s been built up over centuries.

It’s a time to be aware of interdimensional influences, and possibly begin seeing what was not visible before. And experiencing the shimmering energy in matter, and the soul in nature.

The physicist David Bohm said, “all matter is frozen light.” And during this transit, there can be unexplained events, apparitions, disappearances, where what was seemingly solid dissolves. At the same time, this transit brings in curious events of bleed-through from other times, seeing structures from other eras, discovering underwater civilizations.

Big Love

Neptune’s evolutionary current is a stretching to accept everything as part of life, both light and shadow. Just when we think we’ve hit a wall with what we can forgive, a higher force shows us how to embrace more, and love more unconditionally. We will see acts of selflessness in service to love that bring tears to the eyes.

There was a global hush after September 11th, with the spirit of empathy and awareness of humanity’s oneness palpably felt for days. Look for more times like that on a small and grand scale, where the silence is full, and the sense of union enough to evoke a sense of real awe and wonder.

New Moon Report for Jan. 24th – Mars Retrograde

New Moon Report for January 24th

By Jeff Jawer

Mars Retrograde

Monday, January 23

Aggressive Mars, already restrained by its presence in refined Virgo, goes into hibernation during this retrograde period that ends on April 13. Yet tying up loose ends, perfecting skills and streamlining systems are constructive ways to use this transit. Re-establishing healthier routines of diet and exercise makes this an excellent time to get in shape. Delays and complications in completing projects can produce irritation and increase criticism, yet focusing on one task at a time enhances efficiency.

Crone’s Corner – Waking a Sleepy Resolution

Crone’s CornerWaking a Sleepy Resolution

 
Make a sleepy New Year’s resolution by rewording the intent and redirecting the energy toward the goal of your resolution.
With this reworded resolution in mind, light a red candle. Focus on your goal and the steps that will get you from point
A to point B. Visualize yourself completing the steps and your goal in the present tense. Repeat these or similar words:

This is my inspiration,
Aries’ Moon is my motivation.
The path to my goal has now begun.
As my will, this will be done!

After you have released the energy, you may extinguish the candle. On the next morning, relight your candle and focus
on your daily goal each day until the next Full Moon.

New Moon Report for Nov. 10 – Chiron Direct

Chiron Direct

Thursday, November 10

The Wounded Healer’s shift into forward motion is a subtle influence that can slowly begin to externalize vulnerability. This isn’t about complaining and playing the victim; it’s a way of sharing feelings that encourages closeness and compassion without descending into self-pity.

Cosmic Calendar for Friday, October 21st

There are a couple of challenges today, but not as many as will appear in the coming days and once the Sun shifts into Scorpio on Sunday October 23. Consider today a kind of appetizer for the main course to be served during the next ten days to follow. A Mercury-Mars contra-parallel (12:51AM PDT) combines with the Moon in Leo uniting with the red planet Mars (1:13PM PDT) to definitely add several units to the volatility index. Psychic storm warnings are posted and need to be watched – especially on the emotional front. Fortunately, the Moon parallels ebullient Jupiter (5:10AM PDT) while Ceres makes an inspirational, productivity-enhancing, 72-degree link with Pluto (6:38AM PDT), and the Sun forms a revelatory, flowing trine in air signs with Neptune (4:58PM PDT). Thus, as a whole and hoping that the two Mars-oriented sky patterns remain carefully cloistered away in the shadows, you can make some well-needed progress across the board today. Even a Venus-Mars contra-parallel (4:28PM PDT) may be able to assist you in balancing your feminine and masculine sides more effectively. Enjoy a night of entertainment or invite friends over for an impromptu party.

Affirmation of the Day for October 14th

I am this organism, this life. I am the trees, the flowers, the water and the creatures that need it. I am the air we breathe, the food we eat, the love we make, the moon that sings to us, the sun that warms us. I am all of these, and they are me. I am life, I am Earth, for She is me, and I am beautiful.
~ from MaryDawnChild

Your Daily Number for October 12th: 3

You may feel as if an important change is taking place within, but are not yet clear about its true nature. You are going through a transforming growth spurt, and may not have much patience with yourself. Don’t try to analyze what’s going on; just roll with it. Romance is highly favored today.

Weekend Lunar Love Horoscopes for Sept. 16th – 18th

Weekend Love: Lunar Love

by Jeff Jawer

Expect the Unexpected

September 16 – 18

The Moon’s presence in sensual Taurus is a signal to slow down and smell the roses this weekend. Enjoying the sweet pleasures of life with touch, scents, sounds and sights creates a lovely baseline of enjoyment that’s available with or without a partner. Taurus the Bull, though, can sometimes be stubborn and even a little cheap. But a lunar conjunction with indulgent Jupiter on Friday morning blesses us with a major dose of generosity and optimism. The easy way in which we can express our feelings is another source of delight inspired by the Moon’s cozy connection with brainy Mercury later in the day.

Sociable Venus faces unpredictable Uranus very early on Saturday morning, manifesting erratic behavior, romantic surprises and strange attractions throughout the weekend. Whatever ripples of weirdness roll through relationships should be smoothed over with a cooperative Sun-Moon trine on Saturday afternoon. However, late that night the foggy mists of Neptune overtake rational thought and reality with imagination and escapism. A lunar square to this dreamy planet dissolves remnants of reason with the intoxicating effects of romance, fantasy and/or alcohol and drugs. A vacation from reality can be delicious if long-term decisions are not based on a few hours of ecstasy.

The tone switches radically on Sunday with a lunar entry into airy Gemini serving up plenty of distractions. Yet in the midst of these breezy moments flirty Venus aligns in a harsh square with controlling Pluto, whipping up winds of secrecy or jealousy. Honestly addressing the darker issues of desire, power and trust is one of the healthiest ways to make the most of this cosmic energy.

Your Daily Number for Sept. 3rd: 1

You may have a tendency to be a bit hard-headed and stubborn today; caution yourself against engaging in domestic squabbles. You have all the self confidence you need at your disposal. Much to your delight, others won’t hesitate to show you their support.

A Moonlit Swim

A Moonlit Swim

 

Imagine yourself by a wide river gently flowing through a forest. It is night and a full moon rises above the trees. You strip off your clothes and swim out into the middle of the river. You float on your back there, looking up at the bright moon, tremendously at peace in this moonlit watery world. The stresses of life are deep in their caves, unable to bear the softness of the moonlight.
