Leo New Moon. 8/20

28 degrees Leo
August 20, 3:02 am PDT

New moons are about new beginnings. This Leo New Moon is especially important for two reasons: 1. It is the opening though the first gate into a world of universal and personal love blending together to forge a new evolution and create a new species from our personal and collective consciousness, and 2. It is the fourth of five SuperMoons where the gravitational effects of the Earth’s waters and crust – as well as on animals (humans) are significant.

This is a time of personal and divine love combining to form the future of community love through the work of transition teams. (To discover your identity and place in your team a look at your personal and humanity-galactic destinies through your prenatal eclipses and lunar nodal configurations – see http://thekai.com/ or email me the.kai9@gmail.com) As these two kinds of love merge the veil either disappears at will or thins through both an expansion of Aquarian principles – transcending differences, healing our collective humanitarian-Earth citizen vision – dream.

Real changes are required at this juncture. The old recycled solutions no longer work and won’t be tolerated by The People. The needed variables for the new paradigm to form are as follows: a. taking personal responsibility / accountability for one’s own actions, b. being a team member seeing one’s invaluable part in the transition, c. taking up one’s part in community (the transition team is a short term goal even if it takes lifetimes, while being a member of community is an on-going eternity in the moment experience), d. surrendering into divine love in the moment (this surrender includes ego and allows the divine already within to spring forth and manifest).

Fear and resistance are friends met at the frontier. So if worry and fear surround you, you are not alone, join the club. When we meet the fear and take a risk we breakthrough the boundaries that through the old patriarchy – the rigid walls of society and in ourselves, we begin to form the new world!

These are four keywords and phrases that open the gateway combine the divine in us with the mundane to open the gate:

Inspiration
Practical Manifestation
Courage
The Strength of Mount Everest

Aquarius Full Moon / Lunar Eclipse

August 5, 5:55 pm PDT at 14 degrees

Revolutionary and evolutionary forces are at work with this Full Moon (more on this later). Full moons represent the culmination of events that began approximately two weeks ago or on July 21st on the New Moon. However, because this is a Lunar Eclipse – the shadow of Earth falls on the Full Moon – emotional shadow issues about completion are poised for released both individually and globally and could have an effect 6 months prior to this date. This shadow release comes in the context of larger cycles mainly the waxing –building of intensity to the Mayan Cycle date in 2012 and the change to an Aquarian societal matrix.

In the midst of evolution and revolution adjustments will be made – so prepare for adjustments. In making adjustments in your course you change your point of view to an active player rather than a falling prey to disruptions. The revolutionary-evolutionary waxing cycle happened 60 years ago from 1932 – 34 elected Franklin D Roosevelt President and established a social justice system – the New Deal, Einstein reorganized our notions of reality, and the US Federal Reserve Bank was established. These aspects in the context of other cycles (Mayan and the cusp of Piscean / Aquarian Age) make this a remarkable time.

During the Solar Eclipse on July 21 feminine energies were balancing in new ways with the yang. In this Lunar Eclipse male or yang energies are being balanced with the yin. This balancing can be seen from a variety of perspectives. If this is taken from a patriarchal stance the actions of an information age is divided into dialectic categories such as rich/poor and other hierarchical power imbalances. When we seek to understand male/yang energies from a partnership / Aquarian perspective understanding relationship is key. Thoughtful action holds the receptive (yin /feminine) principle in partnership as we share information in a pragmatic context eliminating the unworkable and enhancing efficiency. When yang includes yin in all actions the stage is set for a return of abundance and prosperity for individuals in relationship to community. As prosperity is revealed in the weeks to come a healing paradigm will become evident.

Finally innovation, collaborations and creativity are in the offing through evolution and the on-going revolution.

Cancer New Moon - Solar Eclipse

New Moon Solar Eclipse in Cancer 29 degrees
7-21-09 7:36 pm PDT

We are in the midst of a dimensional shift whose see were planted in 1992 and has been speeding up ever since that sea-change date.

However the last couple of years we have evidenced many shifts that have been more noticeable. We have entered into a waxing cycle where endings are followed rapidly by new beginnings as we approach the 2012 Mayan renewal. In waxing cycles there is an increase in the pull towards the shift and yet we resist. Resistance increases as the pull towards the end date draws closer because of the destruction of the old systems and the new way is unknown and untested.

This new moon in Cancer at 29 degrees while the other New Moon in Cancer (2 degrees) this fell on June 22 at 12:36 pm sandwiched a progression of how the goddess is honored and dishonored in our time. This New Moon is a way to clean karma that occurred when the Huns that swept across Asia and Europe destroyed the matriarchy. The structure of the patriarchy, mainly that of yin/yang or female/male, are being rebalanced to partnership energies.

Its no accident that there is more gender fluidity in our culture with emergent transsexual, transgender and inter-sexed individuals. When a society entrenched in the limited framework of the family as transfer of property between males is called into question by gender-fluidic roles we can gauge this as a sign that the hierarchal roles between traditional wives/husbands are in breakdown. Tolerance of these fluidic roles is indicative equality amongst partners at wave’s edge of an Aquarian Age.

New Moons are about new beginnings and Solar Eclipses are about releasing shadow issues and in this instance the shadow of the Mother and the Feminine as a 2nd class citizen is about to be exploded. The feminine is in rebellion in the form of Global Warming – Mother Earth is sending out a warning sign. Balance and equal partnership is vital to the survival of the human species. This New Moon / Solar Eclipse is a Super Moon meaning that the effect of this specific cycle will be more powerful on tides and gravitational forces. The swathe of the eclipse passes over the mid to southern Pacific, Hawaii to Indonesia, Siberia, China, Pakistan, Afghanistan and India are subject to disturbances of Mother in the form of tsunamis and earthquakes.

The possibility of releasing karma through ritual and healing humanity on wide scale is a good possibility. But we need to also be aware of a wounding – through storms on a massive scale. The storms may be merely metaphorical. If so a healing vibration can be spread across the globe allowing the Aquarian dream of equality to be forged.

Finally on a more visceral political level we may see a clash between a vocal feminine movement versus the word of law resulting in new understanding of receptive actions in the world. This could also represent a new way of investing in the stockmarket through alignment with a feminine approach.

Full Moon In Capricorn – Lunar Eclipse

07-07-09, 2:22am Capricorn 16 degrees

The Earth blocks the light (consciousness) of the Sun casting its light on the moon – always a full moon. This will not be a total lunar eclipse but a penumbra eclipse and a small one so that it will be barely perceptible but in Australia and Asia.

While light is consciousness we use our light to identify areas of darkness so as to release the psychological shadow to the light. Shadow elements or Capricorn and Cancer (Sun in Cancer) are available for us to look at, work with and release.

Some Cancer shadow issues are narcissism, over-indulgence, and immaturity, creating oneself as a victim.

Some Capricorn shadow issues are a patriarchal dominance imbued with capricious cruelty, rules that change for the sake of the power-possessor, and conversely martyrdom in isolation, blame, guilt and shame.

The nature of the 2000 years of the patriarchy has been associated with Capricorn and as we all know that no longer works. Transformational magic – destruction and re-creation forces are at work in all things patriarchal ranging from governments to business, Automobiles and oil both patriarchal and darkly Capricorn are undergoing destruction and re-creation processes.

Dreams and visions of the future and the future of the community of the planet are healing. When you look to June of 1990 – a similar healing theme is now occurring and that time was just before the beginning of the vibrational opening into the 6th world.

• 1st world – Sirians, Pleiadians and other ETs deposited life systems and life-forms on Planet earth - 1 million years
• 2nd world – Shambhalans arrived, Pangaea held all the corporeal and non-corporeal beings 100 thousand years
• 3rd world – Lemurians, Atlantians and Hyperboreans were the major races. The Shambhalans had disappeared from corporeal space
• 4th world began with the Nuclear destruction of the 3rd world and the beginning of the Matriarch 4,000 years
• 5th world began with the Huns sweep of Asia and the destruction of the matriarchy for the patriarchy 2 – 3,000 years
• 6th world – of partnership and community began in 1991

Innovative experiments are supported by this Full Moon as well as acting the principles of healing to establish new forms in the community.

New Moon in Cancer

06-22-09 12:36 pm – Cancer 2 degrees

The evolution/revolution continues. Yes there was a lapse in my astrological reporting but we only need look around us to see the transformations of an accelerated world gone wild. The Guides – The Twelve have kept me fairly busy see blog http://thetwelvespeak.blogspot.com/ for more.

New Moons are about beginnings. During all new moons the nature of gravity the creates a strong downward pulling force. You may feel more grounded with a renewed sense of purpose. This may be especially true because this is a super full new moon when the Moon during a full or new phase is as close to the earth as it will get. This creates a greater force on earth’s tectonic plates. Indications hold that a major earthquake could occur in Pakistan or Afghanistan.

Larger cycles coming to an end – such as the 16 billion year Mayan cycle - are indications of a major evolutionary leap. We have all be feeling it one way or the other. Endings - especially finding lines in space (ha-ha) are never clearly delineated and to quote an Art Garfunkel song “they say in the darkest night there’s a light beyond, but endings always comes at last, endings always come too fast and they pass too slow…” We are deep in a period of endings – releasing the old familiar ways for something new and this may seem tediously slow and test our patience.

So this new moon is a radical redefinition of nurturing ourselves, a redefining of yin/yang or male female roles. Change and expansion is being supported in new ways to nurture our selves. The goddess in men and women is blending with the god or spirit in us all. One note of caution in business or work situations: be careful of having a thinking / talking overload, of saddling yourself with too much and imploding. Delegate, delegate - dance to the music...

Summer Solstice

06-20-09 Saturday 10:46 pm PDT
06-21-09 Saturday 1:46 am EDT

Moon (emotional gauge) at 8 degrees Gemini

Everyone has been feeling the changes. Change is always difficult for our egos because we can’t nail down the content of the future. Trust is an important factor in all-transformational environments. We need to trust universe, the Spirit and ourselves. When we have grounded trust in our being then change can be less stressful.

The nature – the very ground of our beingness – of how we nurture ourselves is being transformed. This is a back to basics movement based on the health of the environment and our very survival. Thus the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere is both sobering and magical from an alchemical point of view. The best magic is when we surrender control to let Spirit and the forces of the universe shape our lives in exciting new ways. Surrender requires the presence of being to let go of old dysfunctional patterns while letting the Higher Self and/or Spirit bring a new healthy pattern to us.

The day can be a mixed one or it can be a springboard into the next 6 months (until the next solstice) and looking at our progress on 9/22 the Equinox. We can expand our dreams and visions and work to heal them as we work to clean our space and our planet. What are the dysfunctional patterns that sabotage you from manifesting your visions? (You may need help so contact me for a session if need be I have some techniques that are useful in letting go of the old and establishing new healthy patterns in us.)

Look to communicating your emotions in a context of responsibility and maturity especially with your partner.

Mercury Retrogrades

Begins 05-06 - 10:01 pm PDT 2 degrees Gemini
Ends 05-30 - 6:22 pm PDT 23 degrees Taurus

For the first two days of the Mercury retrograde period expect that commications will be intense, super friendly, philosopical and a bit disembodied. Endeavor to stay grounded and remember that the two sides of any issue are held together by the gestalt of the whole issue.

For the following period while Mercury retrogrades back through Taurus we can expect that values, beauty, sensual love, art and money issues will grow more intense. Start-up businesses having to do with green where Earth is part of the equations are good for rooting and growth. Money and the perception of money and its general collapse (down economy) is on every body's mind. If your reaction to intensity is fear that you will continue to be afraid about the security of your money. However if you break through your fear-based issues (face fear) you can excel in establishing new negotiations in growing your job, career or business.

Hang in there.

Taurus New Moon 4/24/09

Taurus New Moon 4/24 at 8:24 pm PDT, at 7˚
(see Full Moon of 4/9, Pluto-Venus square of 4/3 and New Moon on 3/26 below)

This is a rich time of action amidst change. We may be able to focus our attention on out-worn habits that are ripe for transformation at this time. This is also a dynamic time between women and men in matters of love for the delights of chemistry and cleaning up old karma. The ability to choose and carry out a decision in linked with love and passion for our struggle from now until mid-July.

Now is a time of magic as long as we can lay the groundwork through hard work and planning, luck will follow.

On a broader scope: Who speaks for the planet? How is fairness, justice and equality linked for the survival and health of our planet?

Libra Full Moon 4/9/09

(See below for New Moon in Aries on 3/26 or for the events on 4/3)

Libra Full Moon 4/9 - 7:56am PDT at 20˚

Look back to Mar 26 - what was calling out in you to be released? How did you handle it? How is your love and money situations faring? How are you handling the changes?

Prepare for the trickster (the unexpected) - could be good luck if your actions are compassionate and community driven. Look for protests from established authorities at odds with innovative changes.

Seven days ago (see 4/3 below) financial markets hit peak intensity for good or ill. Did you make the changes in your network/ love that made the difference. the emerging cultural imperative suggests that a simpler local community based support systems is evolving. If the changes that you were expecting from Mar 26 or Apr 3 have not yet panned out radical actions may be warranted.

Look at the changes that have occurred since 2/9/09. Based on those changes- what are your options now? How do you gauge your abundance and prosperity?

Financial markets - Up or Down?

Pluto squares Retrograde Venus
(See New Moon in Aries below)
It could be that financial markets or international interests will mark an intense turn of events of the day of 4/3. Look for reaction from Wall Street to regulations coming from government in a mixed way today. Republicans not in favor of banking regulations from Geithner - Treasure Secretary could be the source of some of the difficulty,

However if there is solidarity and no major disruptions or reports of downturns in Europe or Asia then the US Stockmarket could surge on bi-partisan soliditarity. This could go either way.

It could be a big up turn or downturn. No middle ground here.

Aries New Moon 3-26-09

Aries new Moon - 3/26 9:07 am PDT - at 7˚

This is a time of transformation and reinvention of patriarchal values. Accountability begins with individuals and then spreads to the corporate world based on fairness and justice with the health of people planet and profit.

New Moons are about beginnings. This one is about new ideas shaping love and money in an atmosphere of intensity. Endings are everywhere. Endings are always followed with new beginnings.

Happy Spring Equinox

Spring Equinox, Friday March 20, 2009 at 4:44 am PDT
Moon at 19˚Capricorn

This is an in-between place on this - the first day of Spring. It's a delicate place of wanting to spring ahead into growth with many impulses to move ahead and a desire to look before leaping, except our daily work requires us to look at the details and cover all the bases or the bottom line.

On the brighter side compassion is everywhere once we look for it. Actions, thoughts and new ideas especially in connecting ourselves up with other in unique ways is favored.

The mood however is slow deliberate (solid) and cautious. And that is how it should be right now with a seemingly stalled economy. Impulsive actions and the quick fix are exactly what got us into this mess in the first place.

Now is the time for restraint and healing our visions.
  • What kind of planet do we want?
  • How do we get there from here?
  • What do we do while we are waiting for the change?
We don't need more wounding (ie AIG using bailout money to give bonuses when there is so much need everywhere) -this is an example of driving the knife in deeper making a bigger wound.

Let us take the implusiveness we may be feeling and make a future plan based on the art and beauty of making money in the context of the greater good.

The needs of the many outweight the needs of the one or the few.

I am looking at new ways to give back while making my way forward, are you?

Full Moon in Virgo

Full Moon at 21º Virgo - 7:39 pm PDT

This is one of the most important full moons of this year as it focuses the power of our emotions on the dynamic of transformation at work on our planet today.

The nature of this dynamic occurs throughout this year and into next year (Saturn-Uranus opposition).

1873 - 75:
European economy dipped into a recession. US Stock Market closed for 10 days. US went to the gold standard - the US dollar was backed by gold.

1918 - 20:
End of WWI, A recession began planting the seed for the 1929 Stock Market crash and the Great Depression. Radio technology was invented and used publicly.

1965 - 67:
The summer of love, the hippie movement, the Vietnam Anti-War protests

This full moon focuses our attention on old structures of the de-stabilizing patriarchy (the old stuff that doesn't work) on sharp opposition to a faced paced evolutionary/revolutionary upheaval.

This call to service engenders a sense of innocence, awe and wonder; an urge to organize our lives, act on your ideals and heal our dream visions through thought, word and deed. New ways of being lead to new ways of doing...

The confluence of planets in traveling in the light of Aquarius portends a New Age. We may think of it as new but the fabric of our lives has always been in the oneness, our focus has been singularly attenuated to separate lives. WE ARE NOT SEPARATE! Telepathy may seem like magic at best or nonsense at worse when seen from the extremes of reductionist thinking that comes from the illusion of separatistic thinking. Telepathy becomes as natural as breathing if we live from a place of thinking that we are different expressions of oneness and balancing the old hierarchy with the oneness evolutionary/revolutionary innovations of a world in transformation. Living from oneness erases the illusion of separateness to play with the illusion of separation as a means of creating friction or learning for growth.

Modes of friction for growth:
1. Waking-up. Increasing awareness of those less fortunate with economic means, and on mental, emotional, physical and spiritual levels.
2. Increases our responsiveness and our responsibilities towards ourselves, each other and the planet. [causality between thought and action c an be seen from a ground of oneness. Or what I do to you - I also do to myself and vice versa.]
3. There is NO "Us" or "Them" "Them" or the other may be unclaimed shadow elements in need of love. Us without them is an artifical boundary creating from the illusion of singularity.

Consciousness is light and electomagnetic energy and the corporeal body holds consciousness while alive. The body dies and consciousness lives on.

Dip into the oneness while playing with the "I" of spearateness. Use the friction of the illusion of separateness against the backdrop of the oneness to manifest what you wish. See-

New Moon In Pisces

Some Notes 2/24

Pisces is Spiritual and about completion.

Many planets of this new moon were (are) in Aquarius representing innovation into the new world.

Between 2/24 and 3/10 is a time of completion and working out the principles of dreams / visions so that a new reality cane be grounded.

Hub-Hub about Age of Aquarius and 2-14-09

I've received several emails about 2-14-09 being the dawn of the age of Aquarius.

Happy Valentine's Day BTW

I would have responded sooner to this but alas I've been busy.

I will begin by saying that everyday we might meditate together in our seemingly separate bodies for peace and to so so at 11:25 pm PST on 2-13 or 12:25 am MST on 2-14 and so one across the USA (2-14 at 7:25 am GMT in Greenwich, England) on world peace and so on is always a good thing.

Perhaps the dawning of the Age of Aquarius is happening definitively on 2-14-09 as the authors of the Musical Hair have suggested, but once a month The Moon in Libra is in the 7th house. Mercury though in Capricorn is no where near Pluto in that same sign and Jupiter and Mars though close (within 2 degrees orb) are not exactly aligned. All the rest is pretty much true. And then again ...
On January 20th 1998 at 10:13 am PST Jupiter and Mars were less than 1 degree orb in Aquarius (closer than now) and the Moon was in Libra in the 7th house - but that wasn't the dawn of Aquarius? Every 11 years or so we have a Jupiter/Mars aligning in Aquarius and Moon in Libra enters the 7th house. I guess Feb 14th Valentine's day makes the big difference then?

Astronomical Terms of the Age of Aquarius

It has to do with precession. More precisely precession is the wobble of the Earth Axis as it moves around the Sun while moving around the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. The appearance is the movement of the constellations (and stars) around the point of the vernal equinox or a precession of equinoxes that happen due to the wobble of Earth on her axis and appears independent of the rotation of our planet around the Sun.

The precession of the equinoxes (of Spring) points to each constellation in a backwards motion, so that the Age of Pisces is followed by the Age of Aquarius and that is followed by the Age of Capricorn and so on to Aries... Each age is approximately 2,150 years long


The following quote is taken from:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_of_Aquarius

"In 1929, the International Astronomical Union
defined the edges of the 88 official constellations. The edge established between Pisces and Aquarius technically locates the beginning of the Aquarian Age around the year 2600. Many astrologers dispute this approach due to the varying sizes of the zodiacal constellations and overlap between the zodiacal constellations."

But technically speaking the vernal equinox enters the constellation of Aquarius in 2691 but does not leave the constellation of Pisces until 2817. Parts of the constellation Aquarius and Pisces overlap one another which could point to reasons where elements of both ages are blending now.

About the Two Ages

Pisces represents completion work having to do with compassion and spiritual from the most sublime to religious factions as well as ideals, dreams and visions and large institutions - corporations, governments and religious organizations. Aquarius represents astrology, democracy, invention, electronics, innovation, community, networking, the Internet, rebels, rebellion and revolution as well as world peace, singular thought and personal responsibility.
--------------------------------------

There are no lines in space so the Aquarian Age and the Piscean Age are blended giving us the opportunity to complete old business and begin new business simultaneously, which seems to be happening - aka solving global warming for the survival and benefit of all human-plant-animal and earth-being kind.

Moon Void of Course

You've never seen any writings from me on Moon Void of Course which literally means that the Moon does not have any major angles to it with planets just before it enters the next sign. During this time it is said that any endeavor will be for naught. So people who follow astrology closely believe that anything that one does during Moon Void of Course will be fruitless.

If you believe that then it will come to pass and this is another example of victim-think astrology. I, of course, do NOT believe Moon Void of Course has that effect on us. First of all those that consider major angles only in their interpretation leave out minor angles - a judgement call of convenience. Dane Rudyard said that minor angles unconsidered is foolishness and a waste of consciousness, I'm para-phrasing of course. Even if the moon did not have angles to planets or asteroids its likely that the energy would be pure allowing one to tap that mood and use it to create.

Full Moon / Lunar Eclipse in Leo 02-09

21 Leo, 02-09-09 at 6:49am
EARTHQUAKE WATCH:
Along the Mississippi River, The Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico and Guatemala may be prone to earthquakes

Full Moon / Lunar Eclipse – 21 Leo, 02-09-09 at 6:49am

Begin with a Dream
Imagine a world in which people are treated as equals where injustice is a term from history, where the resources are treated with respect as they are received from the bounty of Earth – alternative fuels are replenished. Terrorism no longer exists because each human being lives with a replenishing supply of abundance and prosperity from Earth and each other.

In books by Jeffery Wolf Green an astrologer whose pioneering work on Pluto and outer planets nodes have shed light on great epochs of time and history talks about the nodes of Uranus. By taking stock in reincarnation the nodes of Uranus correspond to the group (generations) that transitioned the matriarchy to the patriarchy. These generations (those born from 1932 to the present) have the opportunity to become conscious of and join in transforming the world into the Aquarian Age from patriarchy to partnership.

The key instigating factors for Aquarian thinking to enter and manifest are linked with our survival as a species both from an economic perspective and from an environment perspective – vis a vis global warming. The state of the economy, fuel (oil) crisises, terrorism, world wide economic inequities and world peace and justice are all interrelated. The current mess we find ourselves in and its solution is a natural progression of systems interactions in a holistic manner that requires holistic solutions for the survival of all. See Paul Hawken's books and a networking website - http://www.wiserearth.org/
as some of the ways in which actions may be directed for Aquarian change.

Lunar Eclipse
The penumbral Lunar Eclipse is a partial where the moon dims and takes on a yellowish tint due to the Earth's shadow blocking a small portion of the moon. This partial Eclipse is visible in Eastern Europe, Asia and Africa. Parts of the western US and in Canada will see the eclipse at Sunrise/Moonset. See: http://www.hindu-blog.com/2009/01/chandra-grahan-in-february-2009.html
for more information, click on the map for a closer look.

Total Lunar Eclipses (12/21/2010 is the next total lunar eclipse) from an astrological/psychological perspective are about the release of shadow emotional issues. A penumbral lunar eclipse throws a partial shadow dimming the Sun. This may be a more difficult eclipse pattern because shadow issues are not as clearly defined as the dark shadow of a total.

The release of the shadows needed to move us further into the Aquarian age without dragging the illusions and delusions of the patriarchy with us is necessary if we are to move forward.

The dividing lines between the Piscean and Aquarian Ages are not exact, although by 2700 AD we will be into the Aquarian Age. One of the problems with determining this new age is that the constellation Pisces overlaps the Aquarian Constellation. Those of you that know something of astrology – waxing and waning proximity of two planets from an earth point of view makes exact lines in space impossible.

I invite you to seek a refinement in your consciousness as you hold and put aside the personal issues facing you to look at the larger picture of humankind and the fate/destiny of planet Earth.

Translation

One for all
And all for One!!! (or ONENESS)

One way to explore our quasi-shadow issues is to look at the quasi-shadow issues of those countries that will experience the totality of this penumbral eclipse:
1. Consider the shadow issues of China, India, the Koreas, Siberia, Alaska, Southeast Asia, Australia/New Zealand and Hawaii. This area is mostly Asian where earthquakes dominate.
2. Try not to think too much about the intellectual reasons for the shadow issues about these countries. Instead let any emotions you have about Asians etc come to the surface.
3. Look at negative reactions biases and so on. Shadow issues are about opposites and "the other". Often times we repress or suppress that we don't want to see. A good way to look at the shadow for me is I look to friend who drives me nutty. What is it about them that is like me that I don't like in myself or is opposite of me?
4. If you're having negative, critical or mildly irritating feelings about this topic or a need to be right at the expense of another or any negativity in general look towards forgiving the other or yourself.
5. Make a ritual of release to let go of negativity while you invent a new aspect of yourself to take the place of the negativity.

Full Moon / Lunar Eclipse – 21 Leo, 02-09-09 at 6:49am
The great hope that nearly everyone has been feeling can now can brought to the surface and utilized in recognizing the wounds of humanity and planet Earth that need healing. It's now possible to feel spirit and matter blending and see that the differences between peoples are easily reconciled with Love for our mutual survival.

Also the role of the individual working to release the shadow of the other as alien so that we all be partners working towards new solutions to old problems. We once relied on Big Daddy Government. Even though the Aquarian Age relies on all operating as One the role of the individual is vitally important as a responsive operating member of the team. We are not just robots in a network but having a network within we support the network outside.

The Network within is our thinking, emotion and somatic centers and how these centers connect with other members of our species to support the common good while still maintaining our integrity.

Now is the time for innovative and audacious thinking and acting as we question authority in a different way, building a new authority based on a didactic method of questions, answers, solutions and more questions.

Revolutionary/Evolutionary overthrow of the Old Order

01-12 to 2-22
The first occurrence of this influence was Election Day Nov 4th 2008.

We're in the second occurrence
It begins building on 1-12
The aspect peaks with the most intensity on 2/5
It wanes in intensity until 2-22

9/15/09
4/26/10
7/26/10


The tone that was set for the first occurrence was Obama's election to the Presidency of the United States. The themes as personified in McCain representing the old patriarchal order – traditional methods of government and Obama representing a coalition to make changes, uniting all peoples – an Aquarian revolution.

The power of the revolution / evolution is very powerful and the forces of the overthrow are great. The power of the tradition of the patriarchy is also very strong and steeped in the power of the organization. Part of the difficulty we are having with the sluggish economy is the opposition between these two forces – the old familiar ways and the new way.

These forces we can see everywhere outside us and if we are very astute we can see that they are inside us too. Think of that which frightens you. This may be difficult to do because we seek comfort in the world. We are not seeking fearful situations to overcome them because we are hiding from our fears. The very nature of hiding from our fears is the basis of neurosis. Inside each of us is the desire for order and comfort that comes from the familiar organizations providing the security that as westerners we've grown accustomed. Let's not rock the boat and let everything unfold, as it should. Clearly that kind of thinking is no longer working – why? We live in a new world with many changes on many levels.

In us are the forces for change. Those impulsive urges with us that want to overthrow the old order. Impulsivity arises from acting on spontaneous urges and is associated with youth. Older people are likely to be less impulsive because a certain order is maintained based on experimenting with dysfunctional patterns until a comfort zone is established and maintained. Then our brains get used to these patterns. For instance – one may know one needs to make a change but not do it for a variety of reasons including severe disruptions of the comfort zone.

There is a fundamental disagreement about the direction of the change. The volatility of the astrological aspect and the nature of the world could be said to have produced the latest war between the Hamas and Israel in Gaza for example.

However the conflict here in the United States between how to solve the economic crisis is more altruistically motivated from an Aquarian agenda. We now have a leader that is crafting a middle way through the mess. The pulse of the nation is hope coupled with a "wait and see" approach. This pass of the aspect (Saturn opposing Uranus) focuses on that we're all in it together and that we need experimental solutions that will bring us into a new world order.

New Moon / Solar Eclipse

New Moon - Aquarius, 01-25-09 at 11:55 pm

The New to Full Moons are cycles of growth from seed to birth to sel-realized lives / projects. See Prosperity Vibe for the Full – New Moon Rituals http://prosperityrituals.blogspot.com/


The Schedule of Moon Cycle

1. 1/25 Aquarius New Moon Solar Eclipse
Planting new seeds/ideas for germination (projects begin)

2. 2/9 Leo Full Moon Lunar Eclipse
a. 1st signs of growth /nurturing growth
b. Has your idea grown into a project whose beginnings are public?

3. 2/24 Pisces New Moon

a. Idea becomes manifest – project has life of its own and
b. It begins to grow – others see is as real

Overview:
A couple of years ago everyone was flying high, making money and skipping the light fandango. Some were predicting that the Real Estate Bubble would collapse and fuel a recession/depression. The majority of us did not pay attention. "Oh Yeah, that…"

Now we have been stopped by the limits of excess that were the norm. While we may all acknowledge this radical and seemingly abrupt change it doesn't make dealing with unemployment, high debt and increased limitations (higher prices) any less easier to cope.

All we can do is keep going. The new moon is about the hope of the new world of change not quite yet manifest. This particular new moon represents step-by-step actions that can build a new world by carefully operating within limits and taking care of the details.

Being careful and working hard, paying attention and living in readiness to take up the banner of innovation and "we are all in it together" camaraderie are key.

As we begin this Moon Month it's very important to focus on what you need in the everyday life within the width and breath of your network. If you've been isolating its important to touch base with your friends, family and others in your support / business networks. The Inauguration is an example of the hope that's needed for the nation to go back to work and then the work begins.

Add a bit of luck as we give a little bit out to our networks – be compassionate and then watch it return (clues on 2/9) then cultivating a compassionate receptive space its possible to exercise the work into some good luck on 2/24. Look for women to take a new role in leadership positions world-wide.

New Moon / Solar Eclipse – 7 Aquarius, 01-25-09 at 11:55 pm:

Solar Eclipses are new moons that put a shadow on the earth. When we approach these occurrences with a playful consciousness we can release karmic shadow issues. Almost everyone has a negative idea of the word shadow. Certainly dark shadows are about the release of negative material. The Golden Shadow can also be released allow us to move off the addictive behaviors of looking to one man (President Obama) as the perfect savior. Our hopes (emotions) want him to be the perfect Savior-Man even though our minds know this is impossible. Releasing the golden and dark shadows moves away from the extremes of an addictive high of Obama as savior and feeling victimized by the pitfalls of the dark negative.

Approaching the Solar Eclipse with the idea we are releasing shadow puts us in a place of power – the power of presence and allows us to move on the path of mastery. Even though we will not witness the eclipse in this hemisphere the themes for release are:

1. Releasing doubt, fear/suspiciousness/paranoia. Releasing martyrdom-victim behaviors. Applying forgiveness /compassion to actions. Possibly opening a door to empathic/telepathic abilities by being a clear channel and being alert so as to take action.

2. Softening rigid authoritarian-like grip on discipline, over cautiousness. Releasing feelings of doom and endless hard word. Releasing magical thinking that innovation and romantic notions alone can save us. Embracing a middle ground between detailed administrative service behind the scenes and receptive innovation in a creative brain storming creativity to extract solutions (Let us also use the heart and body knowing to brainstorm).

3. Releasing despair and feelings of isolation from former behaviors of excess that brought us to cycles of irresponsible extravagance (spending beyond our means). Releasing spacey/ dissociative dreaminess that is unattached to our bodies (daydreaming while driving is especially dangerous). Grounding and connecting to your neighbor, to others, to your local community as a place to hold new visions and inject hope

Finding Balance:

When we honor the process of organic birth as it's associated to how we love then expansion into prosperity and abundance can proceed. If we go off into magical thinking without honoring the steps that bring projects and work to life then illusions and delusions can cloud our visions. If this line of action continues it could result in an on-going impulsivity that left unchecked could be violent and destructive.

Crosschecking between systems within us becomes of paramount importance. In astrology planets with a water element are about emotion and it flows, the air element represents thinking and it can be electrical, earth elemental planets are about manifestation and the physical body, and fire brings planets passion, inspiration and alchemical transformation. The crosschecks we need to focus upon and balance are thinking-air, somatic knowing-earth and emotions-water. As Westerners we are accustomed to over-utilizing our pre-frontal cortex and an over reliance on analysis and thought. Opening our hearts and the somatic (gut feelings) intuition are important to keep the rational in balance. When we achieve this three-fold balance and feel secure within ourselves and feel the inner core of our being then we can begin to "see" our ego objectively.

As we observed ego functions without judgment we can begin to see our chief feature or our life's major stumbling block. This time is a pivotal point as we change from conceptualizing ourselves as isolated individuals to a constellation of personas within as congregated in a loose community. In other words-

How do I relate to myself?
How do I relate to you?
What am I willing to surrender that stands in the way of my own light?
What am I willing to surrender that blocks our relating?

When we can release this block without clearly knowing what it is, then we step through the looking glass into a new interdependent reality.

This is the Neptune Pluto septile – see below or click here: http://thekaivibe.blogspot.com/2009/01/transforming-our-dreams.html

Aquarian Age:

This is an Aquarian Solar Eclipse whose last eclipse at 7 degrees was Jan 26, 1990 when the last vibrational gasp of the patriarchy was finishing and the vibrational new age began. At that time the foundation was being laid for the departure of the old and a foundation of responsiveness for the new age.

This Solar Eclipse has some of the last eclipse and more of the community in evidence. Community, equality and relationship are the marks of the Aquarian Age. Equality becomes apparent when gender, sexual orientation, race, nationality and religious/spiritual orientation disappear and we treat the differences within ourselves and with others with delight and the curiosity akin to innocence of children.

The Sabian Symbol for 7 degrees of Aquarius is: A child being born of an eggshell. A person in self-realization moves through enlightened states from within an auric egg to co-create oneself in his/her own image.

Barack Obama and The Inauguration

I decided before starting this process of looking at the jumping off point for this historic event that Barack Obama’s birth chart is only the beginning. I looked at the Chart for the USA (7/4/1776), 1/20/2009 at 12 pm EST for Washington, DC and Obama’s progressed chart delineating what he is working on now.

The Man:
Barack Obama is a Leo as is Bill Clinton. Both men are men of great heart as Leos as well as proud and willful.

Obama has Aquarius Rising leading me to sense that he is an innovator on a mission to save the world and able to observe and creative wildness serves him well. As a child of the 1960s he works single-mindedly towards his global / galactic dreams and visions. He must have a firm spiritual inner authority / practice to hold his own and this is clearly evident in the way he holds himself. The biggest danger is getting lost in the spin of his visions dreams and losing sight of where his is coming from and/or specific goals. However the Cabinet he has surrounded himself with represents a broad spectrum of grounding / counterpoint energies and can ideally present a good balance against spinning out so far.

Themes for Obama 09-10
We can expect him to be very creative in regard to how money is restructured in elegant ways. His progressed chart may reflect how we are feeling about the economy- wild forces at play. Obama will bring innovation and wonderful new dynamic ways of responding to the ebb and flow of a complex economy.

The focus of his life now is hard work and discipline in order to built a solid expansion. Astrologically he is in a very strong leadership position of listening, responding and showing the way.

The only possibility of a downside may be an estrangement from his wife and family (certainly a strain), peaking next year in Aug ’10. In September 10 and forward look to his administration to champion Women’s Rights in a new way.

The Relationship Between The USA and Obama
Obama has a strong sense of the American Dream and the work that is needed to make this dream into a reality for all peoples. The American Dream of peace and justice for all can be spread beyond the boarders of the US by the inspiration of his leadership.

Barack has a strong spirit an inner guidance where is sense of love and abundance is closely allied to the democracy that our founding fathers created over 230 years ago. He has the ability to tap into that spirit of entrepreneurial abundance and craft a new kind of security based on economy and love in practical terms.

If Obama can surrender the part of his ego that is most attached to the changes he is driven to make then the way of the change will be difficult but doable. If he tries too much at once the media / Republicans will shred him and defeat/block him at every turn in an impulsive devise manner.

The Kick-Off – Inauguration
The big question is do we want to look at the President as events relate to him or how he relates to events. Although it may sound like splitting hairs it isn’t. How couples relate to one another has two points of view. Couples, friends, employees – bosses have relational points of view.

Let’s look how Obama may respond within the parameters of the beginning of his presidency. Or – how will he serve the times:
The Inauguration Chart is Aquarian in nature leaning towards innovation in communication, community and exciting novel ways of solving old problems. Obama relates to these ways of community into two ways:
1. He expands into the ideas of community
2. He can work with great focus and discipline across ideologies both within America and globally.

His emotional intensity is exactly in-tune with Americans and our need for fundamental transformative change on a karmic level. His work ethic is geared towards a very focused new architecture for a working government.

The only danger is that the enormity of the problem should he decide to take on too much at once will overwhelm and defeat him.

The events of the world could help complete him in this lifetime or they could pull the rug out from under him sending him on a continuous scramble from one unstable island to the next. His Presidency could become one of fluff where he’s too lost in ideas, deluded and on cloud nine eventually wounded by events and blocked at every turn. I don’t believe that this will happen because he has a practical centrist vision whose plan is to unite moderates on either side of the aisle and he’s a dogged pragmatist.

What We Can Do:
We can participate with him through http://www.change.gov or through other venues. We can send him love and light. We can network in small and larger groups and work with visions of new communities. We can work with our representatives to bring about the changes we need to transform the world into the partnership – community culture that will be needed for seven generations.

See the World with One Heart in Peace
Everyone working together as One

Peace and justice for all.

Suffering floating and softening
As compassionate love unites all
In one heart and one mind.

Transforming Our Dreams

Managing the volatile/sublime aspect:
Pluto septile Neptune


Toltec Shamanism states that 1992 was the activation of The Sixth World because of a change of frequency of the Sun.* I know this personally because I received awakenings in 1990, 91 and 92. However there are no lines in space so that a clear delineation between one epoch / world and the next is not so clear. The power of the septile especially with regard to Pluto – a planet of death and rebirth and Neptune – a planet of delusions or high ideals, dreams and visions reflect bigger changes as marked by the Toltec’s in the switches between one world and the next.

Beginning 12/24/2001 marked the first septile of Pluto and Neptune since September of 1940. On the high end this aspect comes alive when the destiny and fate blend and a sense of spiritual purpose unfolds behind the scenes to reshape the collective dream. The low end represents dark forces that undermine freedom and tends to put people to sleep and into slavery in the name of patriotism and freedom.

When many astrologers look at the chart for the 9/11/2001 tragedy they could not find any correlatives that jumped out at them. Since most astrologers consider the septile a minor angle they didn’t think to consider it. One astrologer reports a darker side of this angle as impulsive, irrational rages bursting forth.

The following dates are the incidence of this aspect until it’s conclusion in 2011. Pluto destroys in order to create something new and Neptune represents our best visions of the future – the ideals of the perfect life.

To get a better picture of the future pattern and/or trend it’s important to look to the pattern of this in the past. The forces that shaped WWII from 1937 to 1941 – brought Hitler to power and threatened world domination through secret alliances was the last time these giant outer planets septiled. Before 1937, 1445 or 492 years passed Pluto and Neptune did a dance (1).

John Addey, Charles Harvey, Mike Harding and David Hamblin were early researches into this 7th harmonic aspect describing the relationship in high end terms: Visionary experiences born by inspiration emanating from a vision of a kind of unity associated with a nirvana or the mystical experience (2).

The first time this aspect occurred 37-41 there were leaps of technological and scientific advancements including antibiotics, the introduction of the atom bomb and nuclear fission for the generation of electric power and plastics (3).

The Internet and the drive of the computer industry toward AI (artificial intelligence), electromagnetic fields, quantum physics, genetics, alternate fuels and composite materials are characteristic of our time where enormous breakthroughs are coming.

Since November of 2000 when Al Gore conceded the Presidential race under questionable circumstances the divisions between Americans that had started with Reagan’s de-regulation deepened. The division between Americans and indeed – factions of the world represent clear ideological differences that are alarming especially in this time of great change, institutional breakdown, panic and economic depression. The dissolution of the dollar in favor of the amero as the new currency brings rumors of a Civil War amongst the US citizenry. Mexico, US and Canada would, like Europe, share a common currency. Many believe (a fear) that the replacing the dollar with the amero would end our Bill of Rights even though this makes no sense given that the European Union has not destroyed the sovereignty of Nations. However it could be the first or second steps towards a world government where corporations via The World Bank could create a totalitarian state.

Neptune is also in its higher forms about Spirit and Spirituality. This aspect destroys religious institutional forms of spirituality in favor of an individual ascendancy. The prophecies speak about great changes and a purification and renewal/rebirth of the Planet. This process has begun.

The destruction of the old ways and the birth of the new ones are rubbing up against each other creating a renaissance, which is transforming our world into something, rich and strange.

Barak Obama is a practical man of vision who has seen these polarizing differences and through his intelligence seeks a middle path out of the chaos one that seeks to unite the polarized ideologies in an attempt to avert civil war and provide a new unity somewhere in the middle. It won’t be perfect but it could be miraculous.

Neptune is in Aquarius through the following period.
Pluto is in Sagittarius until 12/04/2007 and then in Capricorn beginning in 02/22/2008

01-12-2002 & 12-10-2002 --- 02-09-2004 & 12-01-2004

02-14-2005 & 11-30-2005 --- 02-19-2006 & 12-01-2006

02-21-2007 & 12-04-2007

02-22-2008 – shift in focus
& 12-08-2008

02-19-2009 & 12-16-2009 --- 01-15-2010 & 12-28-2010

02-06-2011

Tracking Mercury Retrograde

01-11-09 at 8:37 am – 8 degrees Aquarius.
01-31-09 at 11:11 pm – 22 degrees Capricorn.


Part of the intensity of this Retrograding Mercury regards a focus on the future – where the mind is drawn. The focus of this chart isn’t a whole lot different from the chart of the Full Moon about 13 hours ago. (see Full Moon in Cancer - Below)

There are some notable differences one related to mood and karma. Moon in Cancer is at 29 degrees of that sign and is by degree karmic. Twenty-nine degrees of any sign is karmic because it represents all the good, bad, ugly and supremely beautiful stuff of that sign fixed at the end degree.

The best of Cancer is about Mother Earth nurturing our lives. I need not say the worst because Global Warming represents the worst for us. Other karma about Cancer that is under our control is a death-grip from extreme terror on the past for our security whether that is right or not.

I am about choice. When I am alerted to the fear I experience I work to let go and surrender to Spirit – therein lies my true security and miraculous answers to impossible questions.

Plan on working on your mastery in this retrograde period and prepare for a big boost as it ends on 1/31 at 11:11 pm

The following days are times when we may rise to the challenges of honing thinking, communication, business savvy and legal issues to name a few when Mercury retrograding is especially intense.
(How you respond depends on the impact of Mercury and other planets transiting your natal chart - below is an English version of how the planets and moon affect each other.)

Wed, 1-14 - You may have to speak-up today with your boss your parent to any authority figure (may include your significant other). This is a time of dealing with adversity with equanimity. Aquarians and Virgo take care.

Fri, 1.16 - Meet the challenge of disrupted communications with a flexible stance and you may find delight. Remember life is filled with disruptions and changes of plan. There may be a chance encounter or a silver lining. Plan on making space for a surprising miracle without getting into expectation about it.

Sat, 1.17 – Today is a good day to hone your speaking/persuasive skills to land that deal – as long as you’re in alignment with your highest good and you feel motivated.

Sun, 1-18 - Are we being served? Service is a fine line. When I expect a certain kind of service and don’t get it I am sometimes okay with that and sometimes I get bent out of shape. When I allow myself to see the bigger picture, I’m breathing and I feel compassionate – bad service can be just a bump on the road. Look for intensity of emotions at odds with thinking / listening / conversing so with that in mind try going slowly so your understanding is full and rich. Be careful that you don’t go out of your body to the La-La planet or blow things out of proportion. That caution aside it’s a good day for expansive thought and grand talk as long as you remain grounded and on-purpose.

Mon, 1.19 – This could be an explosive morning if you don’t find a way to vent your frustrations – a trip to the gym, a run or shouting in the car with the radio turned up. Given that you’ve calmed down in the am, you could have romantic play in the afternoon. Zow!

Tue, 1-20 – This is day when you could get spacey with your talk so practice grounding. It could be fun especially if you take a long lunch or go home early and let yourself put your foot-in-your-mouth outside the workplace. Look out for karmic slips around your partner or the opposite sex. Around bedtime your thinking gets grounded and practical.

Thu, 1-22 – You could have disruptive thoughts and/or exciting dreams- take note. If you’re awake around 12 am working on letting go – thinking problems out especially late at night doesn’t work if the result in the morning is exhaustion. In the morning on your commute or at work it may take a bit of minor adjustment to get your mind onto the practical.

Sun, 1-25 - If you find yourself feeling all your burdens today make an effort to get a good laugh and then get back to...

Mon, 1/26 – This is an excellent time for flirting with a potential lover or with your current partner. Any art or beatification project can get the “go” today from within you and from the world at large.

Thu, 1-29 - This is an excellent day for forgiveness and reconciliation of any kind especially in the afternoon.

Sat, 1-31 – Mercury is close enough to Uranus and Saturn today to make a difference and what a way to end Mercury in Retrograde!!! This is about crafting magic – making space for an “Ah-HA” event to occur while thinking, planning, communicating through writing or talking on whatever project that you have been working on. If you have been meeting the challenges since 1/11 then a sense of momentum can be created towards mastery at 11:11 pm today. (The numerology of 1/11/09 is 13 number of transformation and 1/31/09 is 7 the number of luck and rapid change. Look at the number “1” in the date 1/11 and the time 11:11 – 11 is a number of mastery.) (also there is a Septile of note here - for more see my posting on this Transforming your Dreams - coming soon)

Full Moon in Cancer 1-10-09

22 Cancer 01-10-09 at 7:27 pm
This is the first of five Super Full Moons (see below for explanation)

This particular Full Moon is at a closer perigee* than most of the other full moons making the gravitational and astrological effects more pronounced. [The other 4 super Full Moons are: 6/22. 7/22. 8/20 and 12/31.]
* per·i·gee noun – the point in the orbit of a satellite, moon, or planet at which it comes nearest to the object it is orbiting

New Moon to the next New Moon is a cycle of manifestation of which the Full is the midpoint. The start of this particular cycle began with the last new moon (in Capricorn) on 12/27. That’s when we planted seeds or ideas to germinate or grow within us. On 1/10 the seeds grow into a plant and begin to bear results the plant moves above ground and begins maturing. The cycle will complete itself at the beginning of the new cycle on 1/25 at the Aquarius New Moon and Solar Eclipse. Each New, Full and following New Moon represent a starting/ending point for each cycle on a spiral where the Full Moon is the beginning of the manifestation process. See Prosperity Vibe for the Full – New Moon Rituals http://prosperityrituals.blogspot.com/

The Meaning of this Cycle (12/27 to 1/25)
I begin by looking at my responsibilities as I am connected to a concrete reality. This includes how I feel connected (or disconnected) to the planet on a personal level and how my daily activities are bound together in a way that makes practical sense. (If you are feeling disconnected a first step is grounding. Then check in with your practical limitations. Here I try to accept what I cannot change, apply gratefulness to my blessings and surrender to Spirit’s Path, which produces an immediate simple joy and bliss.) Once I acknowledge that I am a good householder, connected to the practical limits of my environment and grounded to Earth, I can act as a touchstone for others in my community if I wish. Capricorn represents the Father and the tradition of the Fathers or patriarchy. The institutions of our patriarchy clearly have been destabilizing for many years and are being destroyed in order to create something new. At the start of this cycle we were being asked to acknowledge and accept the limitations of Earth as a way to begin to nurture ourselves.

Now is the time to look to the integration of being responsive – able to see earth’s limits and practical reality to drawing nurturing from the well. If I seek to draw nurturing and security from external events such as money I could feel fearful and chaotic. When I seek to derive my security from external events there is never “enough” because this is a scarcity model for living. When I release and surrender to the light of Spirit I feel nurtured.

This full moon has a set of angles called a “mystic rectangle”. Dane Rudhyar – father of modern western astrology called these aspects a “practical mysticism”. The Sun (in Capricorn) opposite the Moon (Cancer) [Full Moon] connects to the opposition of Uranus (in Pisces) opposite Saturn (in Virgo) in a way that promotes profound transformation. It holds the door open to the past and the future while giving us opportunities to correct mistakes while we begin to open to a new paradigm shift. Our biggest mistake has been an exclusion of Earth in figuring GNP. One only need look at the economy today and see how we are up against a very real limit that cannot be ignored. (The Saturn – Uranus opposition in this door-opening configuration was exact on the day Obama was elected giving us great hope for an abundant future.)

Destiny is also configured into this full moon if we rise to the challenge without succumbing to fear and falling into the shadow of a blind faith of the Father. The forces of disciplined work, constraint, the karma of limits from the patriarchy (Saturn) and Mother Earth, the sense of home, nurturing and security (Moon) are trained on healing our dreams and visions of the Future (Neptune and Chiron). As individuals and as a people we are redefining a different kind of future where Earth matters in a different way. What that different way isn’t totally clear for everyone, but it’s clear that it is about relationship and equality. When I have a good and equal relationship with my personality parts, my emotions, my body, my spirit, other humans, plants, animals, insects, trees, and Planet Earth. These equal relationships manifest in ways that respect the sacredness of the relationship in practical terms. If this were to be true for every sentient being then the world would be transformed into a paradise just as many prophecies have forecast.

I hope that we all know that we cannot return to the unlimited consumerism of the past without taking into account the toll it has taken on the environment in its many forms and aspects. Since we utilize Earth as a resource for the goods we need to look to at least these two levels. The first is the space our trash occupies and the second is the pollution that contributes and has accelerated global warming. Healing the present includes humans, animals, the plant world, the landmasses, the seas and the atmosphere and that helps ensure that there will be a future for us.

I have to ask myself – how do I exclude from my consciousness all that I take for granted and use without considering where that originates. I work to become aware and change what I can.

Finally Jupiter leaves Capricorn for Aquarius on 1/5 where it remains until 1/2010. Jupiter in Aquarius is an expansion into a worldwide web or community consciousness based in fairness within the human family. The last two times that Jupiter passed through Aquarius there were significant breakthroughs in the world at large.

• 2/6/85 to 2/20/86 Mikelha Gorbachev began to reform the Soviet Union
and a new kind of microchip was made.


• 1/21/97 to 2/4/98 a sheep was cloned
and Ted Turner donated 1 billion dollars to the UN


These aspects increase humanitarian generosity with one another locally and are coupled with expanded healing for new hopes towards a better future.
