Hey you gather that the Aries Moon is good for grandiose goal-setting???

What is your Year of the Tiger resolution?  Where are you going to be more fierce?

The Auspicious Aqua-Weirding that has been strong since last May is now ebbing away for the moment but it’s thankfully back in July to accompany us for the next Saturn-Pluto Square.

There should have been one magical happening/insight/concept over the last few weeks. Something Haute Aquarius, hi-Qi, redolent with optimistic faith and healing…

Glomp onto it now. Define it. Own it. The atmosphere gets more Saturnine over March as Saturn backs into another (sigh) opposition with Uranus.

If you’re interested, Uranus rules Aquarius so the major insights etc of this past few weeks helps with the Saturn-Uranus challenges and reconfigurations starting soon…

This is the Dark Moon ideal: a peaceful, eco-linened & no doubt lemon-grassy-ti-tree scented haven from which to gather one’s wits and rest in prep for the next big push.

A quick little productive gaze back into the past before maxing out the brilliant Chiron-Neptune fuelled Auspicious Aqua-Weirding that comes along with this New Moon.

But most of us ain’t going to be sprawling around navel-gazing. Saturn is still within range of Pluto and for many of us, our motivation is at an all-time high.

Sleep, springwater and sanity are the new luxuries. Who needs Thing Lust when Lust-Lust is free? Most of the time.

Remember that Capricorn – apart from being a mega-stinge with hot cheekbones and a 50,000 year career plan – is also horny. So we don’t need to cut back on everything during Pluto in Cap. Carbs and naff crap – yes. Sex – no.

Also, whilst I am here: the current path of retro-Mars stirs up any unresolved tensions or flash-nostalgia from July-Aug 2005 and March-April 2006.  If you do get the chance to do a bit of Dark-Mooning about, hone in on those months for a glorious ‘aha’ moment.

And, I shall be back after the New Moon!  xxx

So now the Moon is Dark (ie; right at the end of her Moonwane) and in Capricorn, so setting off the Saturn-Pluto Square that is one of the key themes this year.

If you’re not feeling the fabulousity of the Auspicious Aqua Weirding (the rare and beautiful Chiron-Neptune conjunction) it may because you’re trying to ignore a Saturn-Pluto reality…most likely something to do with a merde health habit, quasi-hysterical financial policy or desperately dysfunctional relationship but you’re sticking it for reasons not so much to do with sentiment/loyalty as fear and so-called convenience.

You see, Chiron and Neptune are beyond the bounds of Saturn so if there are Saturn-Girl style issues to look at, Saturn blocks the cosmic light.

Otherwise, if you’re in tune with Saturn, this Moon feels pretty damned good; a lot of finishing up ye olde biz, dealing with deets and actually toting up accomplishments. The low-ebb bit of it comes because you just don’t truly want to go all out in decadence mode. You’d rather work late or at least let your bod work hard for you doing cell renewal whilst you wander the realms of Morpheus, dreaming grand visons & doing your dark-time psyche work.

Yes it’s weird at the moment as there is all this fabulous, magical activity & eureka moments crackling away in Aquarius.

But it’s still the Dark Moon so there is a tides-out sensation with energy & emotions. Don’t do the gloom but do do the requisite Dark Moon rest-up & the Moon is new again Saturday night in America, early Sunday morning in the UK and in the afternoon in Australia.

That’s when the Auspicious Aqua-Weirding will really get going. Remember, it’s a New Moon near to the amazing (and rare) Chiron-Neptune conjunction: brilliant breakthroughs and sudden (positive) changes. Get with it but rejuvenate now.

Oh and there’s a sexy Venus-Pluto sextile next week as well. You may as well restore your glow along with your sanity. And big changes you’re pondering or already doing are enduring – no need to rush it all now.

Lucky, lucky Aqua. If you’re an Aquarius born in the last degrees of the sign – say Feb 14 to the end of Aquarius – you’re so in the rays of Fortuna. Chiron and Neptune are forming a rare conjunction at 26 degrees of Aquarius.

It’s been nearly happening since last May and is linked back into events & emotions from the very start of 2009. You could say it’s the cure what ailed us most in the middle of 2007 and where EVER you have 26 degrees of Aquarius in your personal chart is mega-blessed for all of Feb. So, work it.

And yes, anything at 26 degrees links into this Auspicious Aqua Weirding and the whole “House” 26 degrees of Aquarius is in feels more revved up in magical ways. It’s enchanted and visionary energy.  Yes, Saturn will be back – with oomph – in April so you want to make the most of this excellent energy.

Look for Aquarians gloating & gleefully enacting batso projects that suddenly seem so smart. Actually, Aqua-Peeps never gloat. But they can drop you pronto because all of a sudden your Qi doesn’t mesh with theirs. You’re just not dimensional enough.

The Aqua-Moon

La Luna is in Aquarius so go individuate your head off. Plus Uranus is in slo-mo set to go Direct in early December. Uranus RULES Aquarius. Sun/Mon/Tues are thus super-Uranian and a really good time to be your true self, eccentric and certainly don’t trip along following someone else’s unique vision. It’s emotionally cool as well. The Sun is newly in Saggo so think breezy, sanguine, individuated and totally active. As the Moon meets the Auspicious Aqua-Weirding in the next few days, there is luck & visions of the future where-ever you have Aquarius going on. More in the Scopes & Daily Mystic, obviously.

Venus is now in Scorpio, btw. Take careful note today as the Love-Goddess sextiles Pluto, stirring memories of Venusian-Plutonic shenanigans (hot, karmic, forbidden etc) from way back.

The next big Venus-Pluto aspect is at the end of the year – Venus meets Pluto in Capricorn and sparks a new cycle. But Nov is also a series of subtle  hints re the 2010 Venus in Scorpio extravaganza – Venus in Scorpio from September until January.

Venus has not been Retro in Scorp since late 2002.  It’s always a good one. DO avoid negative Venus-Plutonic carry on…stalkery, bitcherel and overly-intense emo. Perhaps think more in terms of elegant skin-shedding, so that may slither out of the discarded skins, all gleaming and perky again.

After the New Moon, Venus does a whole lot more of stuff – squaring Mars in Leo (always great for a good time, trining Uranus (surprise!) and squaring the Auspicious Aqua-Weirding…If you like your love life intense, bats, sexy and a bit power-trippy, this could be your sort of thing.  Ditto if you feel like things have been stuck for a bit. BUT don’t push thy luck THIS week = let the Saturn-Pluto Square do its thing…It’s not exactly romantic.

Just the other day, I was raving on re how wowed out i was/am (The Ultimate New Dating Book For The Auspicious Aqua-Weirding) by the premise of Francesca Lia Block’s Wood Nymph Meets Centaur.  It’s a mythological dating guide, using the archetypes from ancient legend to inform and inspire us on our love & relationship sagas today. I am thinking like a more readily accessible and modern version of the Robert Johnson He, She and We Books.

Anyway, I interviewed her…!

Mystic: You have exactly the same Rising Sign and Degree of Sagittarius as my friend the Scorpio Sex Academic. Do you also tell really risque stories/gossip at mega-decibel volume level in crowded restaurants?

Francesca:  No but I write really risque stories and share them with my friends in my kitchen or bedroom.

Mystic: Your book wowed me out the moment I read about it in Jezebel.   It is a sensational idea. And a fresh voice in what has become a swamp of treat-him-mean-to-keep-him-keen OR Law of Attraction dating books.  Are people just adoring it? Does this magical approach  to dating work?

Francesca: It has worked for me. It helped me gain perspective and not take things as personally. It helped me to laugh at weird situations and I found it comforting to turn to the mythologies I love so much while I was trying to understand the strange world of dating.

Mystic:  It must surely have a crossover to astrology, do  you think?

Francesca:  There is a brief astrology section that tells which signs often match up with or govern the different types.

Mystic: My copy has not arrived yet but I from what I glean, I think I might be a mermaidenly type and I came out of a long marriage to a Woodsman and then proceeded to have affairs with Satyrs…How easy do you make it to figure out the archetypes and does it also go into the classic relationship patterns the different ones form?

Francesca: I give a quiz and detailed descriptions of the types and then it pairs up all  twelve female types with all twelve male types (with a few same sex couples at the end)

Mystic: You are having a Neptune-Moon transit right now – your Moon in Aquarius with Neptune conjoining it, are you finding that your approach to mothering has morphed, you’re super sensitive to substances (even just coffee) and your dreams are really lucid? Fab for writing.

Francesca; I’m always changing my approach to mothering, with the one constant being my intense love for my kids.  I’m always super sensitive to substances. My waking dreams h ave been amazingly lucid lately.

Mystic: Saturn is on your Midheaven at 3 Libra – this is major, like a climax of a trip that began back in 1980. As a teenager then, did you think in
terms of mythology and dating? And can  you see the Saturn progression and links?  I would have LOVED to have this book as a teenager because I read a lot of myth and I thought like that.

Francesca: I didn’t date as a teenager; I just  fell in love or was alone.  I didn’t connect mythology with my relationships per se but now that I look back I can define the boys and men I was with using this system.  I see the links between that time and this because at that age I was facing a similar crisis to the one that I am now and a little after that I was experiencing a similar magic that I am experiencing now.

Mystic: Saturn on your Midheaven is also about success, more fame and it is  being squared by Pluto – do you think your relationships/self image is
altering due to success/career. What changes are you noticing with Saturn-Pluto so powerful in your chart right now?

Francesca; I am feeling more connected to the outer image I put out into the world (promoting myself, being in touch  with my readers online) but I try to stay focused on the work first and foremost.

Mystic: You’ve got Mars in Leo in the 8th house – is Mars in Leo now until next June turning you into a power-crazed megalomaniac? And if so, how are you reconciling that with the witchier, more solo Neptune-Moon vibe?

Francesca: I am a power crazed megalomaniac in the realm of writing stories and I am witchy at night with my beloved.

Mystic: What are, please, the main archetypal characters?

Francesca; Male types: Centaur, Giant, Urban Elf, Woodsman, Werewolf, Hob, Faun, Tree Elf, Vampire, Garden Elf, Merman. Satyr.  Female Types: Wood Nymph, Tess, Urban Elf girl, Pixie, Weregirl, Hobby, Brownie, Dryad, Vamp, Mermaid, Banshee, Fairy.

Mystic: What would Blanche in Streetcar Named Desire be? And what do you think  Brad and Angelina are? Jennifer Aniston?

Francesca; Brad is Woodsman Angie is Mer-shee (mermaid and banshee)   Jennifer is a Pixie. I am thinking that Blanche is a Mermaid/Weregirl?

YAY! Jupiter is Direct today!!!! Tues night is thus perfect for some grandiose resolutions. Remember it’s Jupiter in Aquarius so make them as ostentatious,  utopian and bats as possible. It’s Jupiter so nix self-doubt with Saggo-style gusto. It’s the Dark Moon so you are still resting in prep for the seriously full on new phase starting next week – these resolutions  need not be affirmed with champagne or yelling. Jupiter is heading forward to conjunct Chiron and Neptune again – the Auspicious Aqua-Weirding is on again. Think: Unusual ways to totally reinvent everything and turn it into a haute Aquarius vision of modern living. Yes, despite Pluto in Cap & whatever Saturn is doing du jour.

Everyone: Please post your most brilliant and O.T.T. Jupiter Direct Vows of Extreme Fabulousity….

I ought probably say “learning to love the Lunar Eclipse.” It’s in CAPRICORN so a bit bloody much to expect to actually “relax” and learn to love etc. T’is NOT the time to relax. And the non-stop flow of pragmatic real-life insights is a bit of a bother.

With this particular set-up, you paradoxically relax by embracing the work ethic & being a bit more savage in your thinking; not brutal nor cruel but a bit more hardcore selfish and sieving things through worldly realism. It will feel way better. And then you go back to being woo-woo later in the week as the Auspicious Aqua-Weirding Strikes again.

Remember that Eclipse Season (this one has three Eclipses) always reveal strongly what’s ending and what’s starting. By interfering in what’s ending, you stuff up the starts. Love the Lunar Eclipse by being clean, industrious and ultra-lucid in your judgements.  And keep scheming your way out of whatever mess you think you’re in – even as you bid a slightly teary farewell to elements of your paste/ye 0lde you/ex madness.
