T-Cross: Pluto in
Capricorn squares Uranus in Aries and Mars in Libra. Life is an eggbeater!
On May 19th planet Mars stood still for a moment
at 9 degrees of Libra and then hurried on his way through the sign of harmony
and balance. During this Full Moon
Mars is again connecting with Uranus and Pluto (like it did in April). This
time we have a T-cross where Mars and Uranus oppose each other and Pluto stands
in between them. Once again we are
trapped in a room with irritability, sudden outbursts of discontent, or very
big surprises. As my astrologer
friend, Alison, says: “This is the
eggbeater effect.” Yes, it feels
like I am in a mixing bowl and I am the subject of the eggbeater. This configuration is ultimately about
awakening and breaking through to a new life. We are challenged to examine our thoughts and behavior as
well as the behavior of the significant people in our lives.
Full Moon at 22 degrees of
Sagittarius on June 12-June 13: the truth can set you free!
The blender experience (set on maximum speed) is happening
during the full moon in Sagittarius.
The full moon occurs close to midnight on Thursday, June 12 (CST). The full light of the moon in
Sagittarius encourages us to have an open mind and to reach for the truth. The Sun in Gemini is a basket full of
information to help us with that truth.
Sometimes Sagittarius is downright full of itself so we must be careful
to question our own egos, our opinions and having things our own way. The good use of this full moon is to
open the mind to higher truth.
Remember, the full moon helps us see more clearly in the dark. The darkness is the stuff we might want
to ignore, but with this full moon we cannot escape what our higher self wants
us to know.
You are walking down a
totally dark street. Finally you come to the streetlight and you stand under it
and feel relief
With a T-cross (also called T-square) between Pluto, Uranus
and Mars, it is unlikely that we can ignore the shadows lurking in our
peripheral vision. Might as well
stand under the street lamp and ask for the truth to show itself. Revelation does not have to arrive at
the precise moment of the full moon. Insights and awakenings have been appearing
since the new moon in Gemini on May 28.
Revelation might take the form of better communication, more efficient
fact-finding, or clearer life direction.
You will know it when you know it!
Neptune in Pisces enters
retrograde period from June 9 to November 15. Imagine you live in a
multidimensional universe and enjoy it!
In the midst of this pressure cooker and eggbeater
experience, we have had an important event. Neptune, ruler of spirituality (and
chaos) went retrograde just before the full moon. Retrograde periods intensify
the activity of any planet.
Retrograde Neptune intensifies sensitivity, intuitive insight,
emotional/spiritual perception, creative imagination/inspiration,
meditative/mystical experiences, faith healing, love for the arts and a compelling
attraction & connection with all of life (including animals, minerals and
especially water). In spite of the
harshness on planet earth that we witness everyday, it is my belief that a
majority of folks are awakening to a loving connection with all that is. I am not suggesting that every sensitive
goose bump you get means you have reached Nirvana. We still need feedback and
counsel from others to insure we are of sound mind. [Reminder: Neptune and the sign of Pisces both rule
the sublime realms, and they also rule craziness!] What I am suggesting is share your unique gifts. Be open to other people’s gifts. During these next five months, find a
way to preserve your experiences with: the extraordinary reality of other
dimensions, your communication with animals and nature, and your awareness of
consciousness within all of life. Starting with this full moon in Sagittarius, pretend you are
Rumi!
Every
Moment
By Rumi
a voice
out of this world
calls on our soul
to wake up and rise
this soul of ours
is like a flame
with more smoke than light
blackening our vision
letting no light through
lessen the smoke and
more light brightens your house
the house you dwell in now
and the abode
you’ll eventually move to
now my precious soul
how long are you going to
waste yourself
in this wandering journey
can’t you hear the voice
can’t you use your swifter wings
and answer the call?
Ghazal
number 26
