You know, no doubt, of the “dark horse” cliche – this is more of a Dark Unicorn moment.

Seriously! Totally! I mean as in that one can attain a Unicorny degree of blameless clarity or even innocence/a fresh start feeling but it comes with a darker edge of self-knowing.

The Full Moon Eclipse in Capricorn is about neo-pragmatism – a feeling of foreboding that lifts the nano you face up to one icky fact or another and start to make cohesive plans. It’s like Saturn. Yes? So not a good time to float about being gaga & lazy or unrealistic. It’s all Earth-Earth-Earth so be grounded.

Yes, you have to work a BIT harder at firing  up the old self-belief as there is a paucity of Fire Sign action in the skies right now; you generate the heat from secret stores of Qi? But, as if to compensate, remember that Mars IS going to spend nearly NINE MONTHS in Leo from October…And some of that will include Uranus in Aries.

What will Uranus in Aries be like? I reckon it will be cool. This dude was born with Uranus in Aries & his generation produced some fantastic inventive peeps.

I did an extended rave re the Mars going Ape component of this Eclipse in Daily Mystic & the Scopes but in short; stay pragmatic & evolving even as some super-sensitive areas are tweaked. Sensational psych dreaming.

It’s a totally rad Saggo Moon – for reasons I have banged on about in the Scopes – but it’s on the eve of an Eclipse & so thus is imbued with all the usual sportif Sagg gregarious optimism & restlessness. If you can hack it, it would also be a fantastic time, albeit cathartic, for a bit of this:

Yet you’d  have to get it out of the way before Venus goes whizzing into game-playing Gemini…Brad Blanton is a Virgo, btw.

How was your weekend?!  Mine was excellent though to back to back socialising did in my Sunday & I totally Zen-Slothed.

In my Sunday evening trackies & with my daughter in the suddenly torrential rain, we schlepped past an impromptu Michael Jackson Tribute Street Party – was gorgeous. About 50 people all dancing to really well-mixed MJ. And they were good dancers.  What interested me most is that there were teens through to 60-ish year olds, people who were clearly professional dancers & others who were just picking up on the moves they did at their school formal once upon a time. And the kids krumped.

Uranus is in utter sl0-mo, practically at a standstill, getting set to turn Retro on Weds, just as Venus squares everything in sight. I know I said this last week but – again – it is not a good time to try and control other peeps. Especially Aquarians & Pisceans, also Taurus & Libra…They’re individuating to the max.

It IS a brilliant time to be your own unique yourself, live & let be. Vary your routine. Ditch the obligatory shit – where you can – whilst also honouring the Eclipse-Season Get Real vibe.  The Eclipse (15 Capricorn) is in my 12th  house so my practical resolution is to meditate properly. But remember that the Uranian vibe adds a zany zing to the atmosphere & that not everyone channels Uranian Qi as well as – say -  you or I might.

Don’t bait the crazies. Stay serene & nourish thy nervous system.

My friend Aqua-Girl – who is probably the ultimate Aquarian female in many ways – has announced she is going into “poly-phasic sleep cycling” in the next month. Hence her social availability will be limited and she is totally off coffee and sugar. “A lot of big people do it,” she said breezily. “Richard Branson, Buckminster Fuller…”  I can’t remember the other names.

What it is: you sleep for only two hours a day so that you have 22 hours a day of total productivity. How you do it; You train yourself to sleep – zapping straight into REM – for 20 minutes every two hours. She may or may not use her lucid dreaming goggles during this time. Aqua-Girl sends men crazy. I see it all the time. She has waist length blue black hair and has that sort of archetypal delicate Asian lotus flower look.

But she is a multiple conjunct Aquarian and completely bats. She does nude hiking and surfing, djs, goes straight from a ten day Silence Retreat to clubbing, is an excellent mother to her two daughters & is currently dating a much younger nanophysicist whom she made go to relationship counselling two weeks after they met. Just to tweak a few things.

I think i would go ravingly nuts if I tried polyphasis sleep cycling. I did it by default when my children were babies and it did  not seem to produce the sharpened mind and sudden ability to become an awesomely productive mogul & guru.

Here we go again guys! It is Eclipse Season…Not yet but we are officially in the ’shadow’ of the Eclipse from June 7. There are three in a row. The first is on July 7 and it is a Lunar Eclipse/Full Moon in Capricorn at 15 degrees.  Then there is a super-strong Solar Eclipse/New Moon in Kataka a.k.a. Cancer at 29 degrees. It is the 2nd of two New Moons in that sign in a row. The first will be on June 22 and at Zero degrees opposite Pluto. And then the Eclipse.  Okay and then there’s a Lunar Eclipse/Full Moon in Aquarius at 13 degrees on August 6.

Obviously, I will rant on re all this more succinctly in Daily Mystic & Nightly Scopes.

However; if you know/have your chart you might want to look at what you have in Zero, 15 and 29 degrees of Cardinal Signs; Cancer, Libra, Aries, Capricorn. As these are the zones most affected by the Eclipses.  The Aqua Eclipse is the last in a series that began in Feb 2008. So expect something to occur that  somehow marks the end of one era & start of another as the North Node goes from Aquarius to Capricorn. Try to analyze the phase from Feb 2008 to now and track what evolution has occurred. Especially if you’re Aqua, Leo or either of those signs rising.

The Eclipse most likely to coincide with intense change & new beginnings is the one on July 22. It’s not only a Total Solar Eclipse – it is the longest Eclipse that will occur in the 21st Century. See interactive widget of it’s path here.  It’s like a super-heated New Moon and it’s trined by Uranus, adding to the sudden change vibe. Note; Trine – that’s beneficial & friendly.  But essentially, the New & Full Moons from the very next one on June 8 (Full Moon in Saggo, squared by Saturn) through to the Aqua Eclipse on August 6 are O.T.T. but exceptional for initiating positive change in your life.
