Full Moon

Jüri Arrak, Panga-Rehe Jutud, 1975

OKAY Fine, let’s just go with this Eclipse…I KNOW…it is relatively minor in intensity and though it’s opposing Pluto and some other stuff, we’ve had Pluto in Cap since early 2008 so no surprise but in fact, this particular Full Moon Eclipse is FAB – it’s definitely an unlocker of emo and a face-it moment for changes/issues in play for quite some time….

I am technically not blogging but i just HAD to give  you guys this pic as I think it’s apt for the moment – it’s NOT negative. Go through the link to see deets on the artist but it’s tribal.  The wisdom of the rats is interesting…Remember, my life was SAVED by a rat. I never discredit the creatures. And what is the scroll being held? Her/His accumulated knowledge?  Her/his degree? Who is the watcher in the window???

The character is definitely underground – subconscious – and there is like a negotiation taking place…

Remember this full moon eclipse is mean to be absolutely batso about you acknowledging emo you usually find too naff or or non-productive AND THEN somehow sorting it by the NEW MOON on Jan 15..there are longer time frames for this but i am on hols…For now – analyze the painting…So profound- would LOVE to know your thoughts as i think this pic SO NOW!

YOU CAN BE FEELING A BIT LIKE THIS…

Well, you could be feeling in sort of the above mood & yes, it is not just the Moon going Full in Taurus…that’s actually quite easy to ameloriate via caring for one’s body…It’s also the ruthless Saturn-Pluto square forming…I’m feeling it in that a few peeps who i like – love, even – have nonetheless managed to stand me up, skip important occasions and so on & I am having to stop myself sending a merde-missive. This is SO unlike me…Usually, with friends, I just rack this sort of thing up to life, whatever…But Saturn-Pluto squaring in bolshie, cardinal signs is a whole new game.

Geopolitically, i still think it will throw up some interesting ‘tells’ as to how Pluto in Cap is going and it is – sorry – notorious for geopolitical flashpoint situations but personally, if we can just keep it productive, for most of us it’s good. Though a tad bitchy. I have Pluto right at the end of my ’social sector’ and so it’s like – with these various friends – i can hear the voice of Saturn crooning (being in Libra, the Saturnine voice is more melodious  now) “come on, shouldn’t friends think you’re fabulous, turn up when they say they will and not diss  you? Why not just clarify your social life…?” You can see Saturn as wanting to help the Pluto transformative process.

As for the Full Moon in Taurus, I am going for something more like the image below and sleep, nutrition and walking barefoot on some grass are to be my secret serenity weapons.

Also, it’s important to distinguish fleeting Full Moon intensity from deeper themes that will be played out over the next year as Saturn squares Pluto again in Feb 2010 and then whizzes back to oppose Uranus again and then forward to have another bingle with Pluto. Hence the advice to shut up and cultivate thy serenity till after the Full Moon…eg; If your friendscape does need to be reshaped, don’t do it on impulse during a Full Moon in time when the potentially truculent Taurus-Moon opposes the possibly vengeful/bitched up Scorpio Sun/Mercury…with egomaniacal Mars in Leo squaring, just for kicks.

The Full Moon in Taurus could be Tranquility Central, an oasis of Zen Noire amidst the Scorping…You know? Taurus Moons are always good times for being Sensual & Grounded. It is the massage Moon. BUT…This one is squared Mars in Leo and opposed by Sun/Mercury in Scorpio. And, due to the Sun-Mercury conjunction after the Moon, the whole thing becomes one of those extended Full Moons…With the drama or intensity stretching out to encompass Monday AND Tuesday.  So I am declaring all Monday and all Tuesday as days of Full Moon weirding and that’s regardless of where you are on this beautiful orb of hours.

Stay as Zen Noire as poss. Don’t provoke fights. Don’t go asking for favours. Don’t indulge your own stalkery or lower instincts. Use every trick in the book to keep out of merde. Personally; I am just getting on with my tasks, trying to eat well and employing basic evasive tactics. Professionalism & being at one with your bod is always a good move with this sort of energy…If  you expect that ornery peeps will be blasting off with the usual bullshit, than you are at least prepped. Ask for what thy want and chase things up later in the week. Aim not to over-react. Think: Aura of white light all around you…

IF you can do the Zen Noire professionalism and some kind of tranquil, totally in-your-body-Taurean trip than you will be rewarded with massive awareness, solutions, creative breakthroughs and transcendental bliss.

Oh and I’ve had several minor chances to go berko today. Tres Full Moon. I got a snippy little pass-agg merde missive from someone VERY New Age. And I totally wanted to let rip with a fast response merde-missive back. Sort of super-sarky showing just whom can be good at toxic-saccharine dripping pass-agg if need be. But then i ran the idea through my now-installed Saturn Girl filter and realised it would be of no actual benefit except that i would kind of rendering myself tacky for the fleeting satisfaction of one stupid communique that would make it seem i gave a crap. MY POINT: Update your Saturn Girl settings so that you don’t waste energy on pointless petty drivel. Let other peeps be the ones who strumpet around with their ego showing.

The next 24 hours represent the REAL Weekend of the week…if you know what I mean.  If a weekend is supposed to be a blend of Zen-Sloth & perhaps some hedonism, rejuvenatory and all…that wasn’t it. The combo of an emo Full Moon in Pisces, Pluto in slo-mo prepping to turn direct (subliminal catharthis showing up in one’s dreams, anyone?) and then a “Get-To-It-Slacker” blast of Aries Moon energy to round things off.

But the next 24 hours is pure Transcendental Taurus Moon and NO dodgy aspects to stuff it up. None at all. Yes, Pluto Direct and the third round of the Saturn-Uranus Opposition are still on track. So don’t imagine there is not a full on psychic evolution taking place BUT, should you be able to arrange even a semblance of relaxation, the next 24 hours from right now are  your scene. Totally take a breath before the next round of hardcore astro-weirding, cosmic realisations et al.

Oh and if you are pondering the Saturn-Uranus Opp, remember that the last two peaks of it were Nov 2008 & Feb/March 2009. Then there are two more in 2010.

Thank you O Full Moon in Pisces, for all those awesome insights & fresh vows.

Now, the gentleman above is Nobel Prize winning poet & playwright Derek Walcott – the pic is grainy as I tore it out of the mag and scanned it but he is 79. And it’s current!  So he has racked up two Saturn Returns and is just a few years off from having his Uranus Return – in Aries and at age 84. Yes, there has been a bit of scandal about him - debated at length – but i was SO impressed by the vision of still-happy, healthy & hot-at-70-something successful poet that i looked at his astro…

Because given that, thank you Saturn, aging/maturity is apparently some sort of stupid condition of birth, it’s awesome to see examples such as Derek W, above.  And the Uranus Return at 84ish is like your reward for having tried to be cool & individuated your whole life long + you’ve had to do the Saturn shit as well.

Okay, so he is 2 degrees of Aqua born in 1930, St Lucia – what a life, his grandmothers descended from slaves, his father a Bohemian artist, he became a teenage theatre critic in Trinidad. And he’s got Moon in Scorpio….Mercury Retrograde (a LOT of poets are born when Mercury Retrograde – i need to get my imaginary astrological intern onto researching this) & DW has Venus, Mars +Saturn in Capricorn. God, anything in Cap makes peeps age well.  Pluto opposes from Cancer. Sex drive. Life drive. Primordial.

Neptune trines his Saturn which is just beautiful synergy for a successful and acclaimed poet – the easy combination of the Muse with the Sage, artistic talent with biz sense et al.  And Jupiter trines his Sun for a beautiful boost of luck + charisma.

This poem of his is SENSATIONAL and so apt for post-Full Moon in Pisces, with Pluto nearly Direct…And maybe, it’s how you feel at Uranus Return???

Love After Love by Derek Walcott
The time will come
when, with elation
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror
and each will smile at the other’s welcome,

and say, sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you

all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,

the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life.

Merry Full Moon for in just-a-few hours guys! Realisations all OVER the shop here, mostly about balancing out that pesky Saturn-Uranus opposition that the Full Moon scenario (Sun in Virgo opposes Moon in Pisces = Full Moon) is but an echo of.

And – I always like to come with some cool asteroid stuff on Friday evening, if I can – EROS is conjunct the Full Moon. Yes. I have not been keeping this from you on purpose – i only just thought of it. Asteroids are often a weekend fancy with me. So Eros conjunct the Full Moon means a little bit of something seductive stirring EVEN AS you so suavely work with the Pluto Direct emo/new era realisations and Saturn-Uranian balance.

And speaking of Saturn-Uranus, most of the mini-queries have been sent but a FEW are lingering, by tomorrow night Sydney time I totally promise.

“…Swedish design students Tove Jansson and Per Emanuelsson have collaborated to create what they called Chain shoes. A concept based on two very opposite ideas; floating and the restriction of being chained down….”

So TOTALLY the Saturn-Uranus Opposition put into shoes – extraordinary.

Three Things: My Saturn-Uranus Mini-Queries are nearly all done. If you do not get yours by Friday, do e-mail…My aim is to get them all out before Mercury goes Bats, though – from the feeling of things, it’s already batso enough.

2nd Thing; The Full Moon coming up is like  a mini version of the Saturn-Uranus opposition, in that it’s a Virgo-Pisces opposition.

3rd thing: The Full Moon on Friday totally twangs on any delicate points from early September 2006, March 2007 and August 2007. I always think that the Full Moon right before Pluto goes Direct is particularly poignant, you know. It’s in Pisces & Pluto is always about to go Direct. It’s yet another reason why dreams are so FULL ON at this time. Pluto RULES the subliminal mind and whatever is not being consciously acknowledged or said plays out in our dreams.

Here is our lovely lady Kate, Lead Maenad of the world, in leopardskin again. This is a la the previous post re the followers of Wine & Debauch God Dionysus identifying themselves by wearing leopardskin print.

Now this week asteroid 3671 (if you wanna look it up in your chart, you can whack it in via the Astrodienst Extended Options) a.k.a. Dionysus is in LOUD LEO & opposite Chiron and Neptune…What does this mean??? Well, to  me it resonates in that there has been an endless array of mega-scary anti-booze articles (the opposition to healthful Chiron) and yet if one does go on le turps this weekend, it will be O.T.T. indeed, as the opposition from Dionysus to Neptune suggests.

Oh and a Full Moon in Neptune-Ruled Pisces…So it’s either quiet Theta-Brain-Waved meditation & salt bathing whilst reading Women Who Run With The Wolves

“Within every woman there is a wild and natural creature, a powerful force, filled with good instincts, passionate creativity, and ageless knowing.  Her name is Wild Woman, but she is an endangered species.  Though the gifts of the wildish nature come to us at birth, society’s attempt to “civilize” us into rigid roles has plundered this treasure, and muffled the deep, life-giving messages of our own souls.  Without Wild Woman, we become over-domesticated, fearful, uncreative, trapped.”

Or it’s all ON with the Dionysian revels, sacred insane text messaging & encounters with crazed yet priapic Dionysian type men. And I have pmt (am glugging that Greenwitch stuff, lol) so i DARE any Virgo to e-mail me narking off that I spell Dionysian/Dionysius differently nearly everytime i write it.

Are you a Leo born mid-August??? You have Dionysus conjunct your Sun & it’s very hard for you NOT to be ostentatiously out someplace talking shit & drinking champagne in your most LOUD of outfits. Tell any peeps who complain that they’re lucky there are not any stags or panthers about, elst you’d be off on a wild Full Moon nude galloping session.

820+lgWhich Sun Sign Gets the worst P.M.T???

It would be useful data, no?  Anecdotally, I reckon it’s Capricorn. And weirdly, what if this were to do with their sign being the opposite of that ruled by the Moon, our Cancer/Kataka?

Also, i have NO idea if this is true or not but ages ago a pagan, witchy-poo type whose speciality was something like menstrual correctness (invoke Hecate or Kali, use sea sponges or d.i.y. menstrual pads & pour the ’soak water’ on your deadly nightshade patch blah blah blah) said to me that it is the In Tune thing to bleed with the Dark Moon…Which means you are ovulating with the Full Moon and thus waxing/waning a la Gaia.

Thoughts? I personally have not had a grotty pmt episode for years – not since i started exercising properly & doing herbs et al. All that lingers is a mild ennui & propensity to clumsiness. Occasionally, if i have to deal with a total bitch, my cycle gets knocked out of whack, but that’s normal isn’t it?
