26th April 2013 Full Moon in Scorpio, partial lunar eclipse

Hi everyone!

The Taurus Sun is shining on Mother Earth igniting our hearts with love for our planet. Venus(the feminine) and now Mars(the masculine), both in Taurus too, are alleviating the tensions of the fiery tunnel of the past few weeks.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Recovering from last week:

Hopefully, you’re recovering some sense of sanity after last week’s build up to the Sun meeting Mars in Aries last Friday! All the fire, anger, resentment and reactive energies are beginning to settle now we have the Sun and Venus in Taurus. You may feel like you’re breathing again, even if you’re dealing with the aftermath of all the explosive feelings and often irrational outbursts and reactions.

Mercury is still in Aries until 2nd May, so be aware of fiery communications...not necessarily negative. But, your mind may still be working overtime, so if sleep eludes, just bear with it.

The physical body:   

Nurture and nourish...no more burnout!!!

With all the planets in Taurus, you may be finding it necessary to get some body work to release some locked in energies, past lives/alternate realities, lost aspects. Cell memories are being released. You may find that long term aches, pains and illnesses are being resolved in this period of time as the cosmic energies are conducive to completion, release and resolution.

 

 

The earth herself is clearing and we’re doing it along with her. We’re purifying and reaching for a happy fulfilling abundant life on planet earth. The Taurus energy is offering alignment with the wealth of the earth herself. Stay tuned to the physical body in these next few weeks. The Earth Mother is here!

 

 

If you’re not taking care of yourself, nurturing yourself not just physically, but nourishing yourself with what brings you joy...get cracking! It really is all about love during this time of Taurus.

 

 

With Taurus, watch the throat chakra, neck. Taurus can be stubborn/wilful and the neck is all connected to that. Singing/Toning is good because Taurus has an affinity with music. ‘Not my will, but they will be done’

What’s coming in:   

Eclipse season, starting with tomorrow’s Scorpio Full Moon partial lunar eclipse! 

  

Our breathing space, whilst welcome, is in some ways temporary as we are just entering the first series of eclipses for 2013.

Starting with tomorrow’s eclipse, we’ll be moving into a 6 week period with eclipses every two weeks, shifting our perspectives, our ideas, opinions and our lives in the usual dramatic style of the eclipse energies. The changes emanating from eclipses may not manifest for a month, 6 months or even a year later.

 

 

 

 

26th April:   

Full Moon in Scorpio partial Lunar Eclipse at 5.57 am AEST at 5 degrees Scorpio 46

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Death of the old: Scorpio energy is all about life, death, rebirth, transformation and on the mundane level. relates to money (from sources outside income) sexuality and intimacy. The Phoenix is one of the symbols aligned with the Scorpio energy as it symbolises death and rebirth.

 

 

Endings so we can be reborn: How appropriate for this Full Moon to be Scorpio, as we have just emerged from all that fire energy of Aries burning us up and destroying something that needed to go.

 

The ‘final straw’: Full Moons bring culminations, something coming to a head, something completing. Scorpio adds to this ‘ending’, making it a more final ending than other full moons. This Scorpio Full Moon energy is putting a big ‘full stop’ on this destruction, finishing off what needs ending.

Deeply buried emotional energy seeks release: The impact of the Full Moon is with us for a few days following on from when it reaches fullness. Be aware of the emotions which always seem bigger than Ben Hur at a Full Moon.

 

 

 

This one is more so with Scorpio energy and the planetary line-up associated with the Full Moon at this time. Emotions could just bubble up and blurt out of you, because we are dealing with often suppressed, depressed, repressed energies which are seeking release. This is the kind of emotion that’s buried so deeply that we just don’t know it’s there. Now, that being said, it doesn’t mean these are negative emotions and it doesn’t mean they’re emotions that connect obviously to your life now as there is so much karmic release going on. We just don’t know which ‘lost aspects’ are seeking resolution.

The masculine warrior energy of Mars is coming to peace with the Taurus energy and we are being called to harness this masculine energy in taking our authority with our emotional selves. This is not about suppressing or overpowering. It’s acknowledging and accepting our need for balance and harmony, freedom from oppression from others or of others.

 

 

Rebirth: New Moon solar eclipse in Taurus on 10th May

We are clearing the way, preparing for our rebirth, the first taste of which we’ll experience at the New Moon solar eclipse in Taurus on 10th May.

That New Moon will be very much about bringing ideas, hopes and dreams into physical reality.

 

 

 

New information comes forth: Scorpio is ruled by Pluto, God of the Underworld, so you can imagine where the power of this Full Moon is taking us...deep within our hearts, memories (moon rules memory), unconscious. Now think positively here, because this full moon eclipse is guaranteed to bring something forth that you needed to know.

 

 

Digging for ‘gold’:   

the essence of who you are and what you truly desire for fulfilment of your life on earth.

Full Moons bring illumination, insight arising from the unconscious and the Scorpio energy takes us deeper than usual into digging for the ‘gold’ that is us, our essence, our truth, our pathway forward. This full moon offers us deep truth which will resonate with us, inspire us and give us the impetus to move on and let go of past blockages.

 

Saturn, working with Pluto, is close to the Full Moon:
Off the treadmill!

 

Deeply embedded karmic burdens, patterns and ties are revealed....just love em’ and leave ‘em!

 

With Saturn close to the moon, karmic burdens and ties which have been holding us back, holding us down, keeping us from fulfilling our potential...are likely to be revealed. It’s our call to release them. Forgiveness of self, others is key to this release process.

Full Moons are all about emotion, the most expansive emotional energy of the lunar month.

 

 

Neptune is in a flowing positive trine with the Full Moon:   

opening the channel to a more evolved vision of life! spiritual release!

This energy is working in beautifully with the release of the karmic ties/burdens and memories. We all carry a commitment to growth and evolution in our earthly lives. Our soul calls us to break with the negative and less evolved patterns of the past, to change the way we have lived to our own detriment.

Spiritual knowledge accessible: Divine guidance!

Everyone is different with our own ‘brief’ but we also have a ‘brief’ for the planet. Everyone carries a different ‘load’ depending on our soul’s choice, but it is about our own personal evolution as well as contributing to the evolution of the planet. The energy of Neptune working with the Full Moon, is opening us up so we can evolve our emotions into a higher order, into a more evolved expression of ourselves.

Full Moon in Scorpio opposite Sun in Taurus: Grounding deep emotions and feeling the earth upholding us and our life on earth!

The Full Moon calls for a balancing act between our inner and outer selves. Both sides of our being are asking for expression and we’re called to attend to both these energies. Scorpio is water and emotional whilst Taurus is earth, practical and grounding.

Purifying, distilling, creating a vintage wine: empowering ourselves to be our essential selves!

The Taurus energy, Mother Earth, is holding us through this Full Moon as we get in touch with the deep emotions of Scorpio, the burdens and hard working energies of Saturn which are being released and evolving into the higher consciousness of ‘taking our authority’, ‘owning our mastery’ of life on earth. 


 

The Sun in Taurus is close to Mars in Taurus: Masculine energies find empowerment and release through earth and water!

All the fire of Mars is finding safe release in the energies of Taurus. The fire of the Sun and Mars is being counterbalanced by the water of Scorpio, which are both being held by Mother Earth. We need our masculine self empowered and ready to play its part in taking us out into the world, supported in the knowledge of who we really are with no need for false pride or puffed ego. We are who we are!

The Sabian Symbols for this Full Moon:

From Cathy Pagano at http://www.wisdom-of-astrology.com/astrostarsarticles/the-cosmic-story-scorpio-lunar-eclipse-2013

The Sabian symbol for the Moon at 6* Scorpio is: The Gold Rush tears men away from their native soil. Rudhyar says, ‘this is the passionate search for new values which promise a more abundant life.’ This is the symbol of a passion that fires the imagination to make us leave home and the ‘known’ for our dreams and visions. Scorpio looks for the intensity of transformative experiences. This Moon will be shouting out our secret desires to live more and better by dying to our fears.

The Sabian symbol for the Sun at 6* Taurus is: Cantilever bridge across a deep gorge. Dan Rudhyar says that this image ‘suggests the conquest of separativeness through group cooperation’. In working together to build a bridge into the ‘unknown’, people overcome our collective obstacles. These are the tests of our evolution as a species. Taurus’ often tends to be independent and doesn’t ask for help, so this image from the symbols suggests a new way of creating the Garden for all of us. Not alone but together.

Where will the eclipse be visible: From Jonathan Cainer at: www.cainer.com

A partial Lunar Eclipse will be visible on Thursday evening* (or Friday morning) from some parts of the world. But even if you are in a place from where it can be seen, you'll actually need to be looking at the Moon! These days, with so much to watch on TV, the sky holds our attention less than it once did. Plus, just as TV signals can fluctuate in strength, Moon vision requires the sky to be fairly cloud-free. Thankfully, it has an impact whether we see it or not. That impact for us all this week will be (in different ways for different signs) a realisation that something we thought was hopeless is hopeful after all!

*Parts of New Zealand.
In Western Europe and West Africa, the eclipse is visible at Moonrise.
In Australia, Japan, Eastern Russia and Indonesia the eclipse is visible at Moonset.
In Eastern Europe, Eastern and Southern Africa, India, most of China and most of Russia, the entire Eclipse is visible.

The eclipse will be brief but it will be be powerful. Like all eclipses, it symbolises a chance to reboot your life.

A partial lunar eclipse is a wonderful phenomenon to observe but you can still feel the benefit of this astrological influence - even if you don't witness it. It symbolises a big opportunity to move on from the past by letting go of an old fear. The details will, of course, vary from sign to sign and from person to person. But because it is a partial eclipse, somewhere in the equation it may involve going to the brink of a big decision, looking carefully at what it might lead to, then deciding whether to go ahead or pull back.

 

From Sydney Observatory: for those in Australia

Early on Friday morning there is a short and shallow partial eclipse of the Moon visible throughout Australia. It begins at 5:52 am AEST when the edge of the Moon moves into the Earth’s shadow and finishes just 31 minutes later as it exits the shadow. At maximum eclipse only 2% of the Moon’s width is covered.

 

Upcoming Dates:

2nd May: Mercury moves into Taurus

 

10th May: New Moon in Taurus Solar Eclipse

10th May: Venus moves into Gemini

Eclipses for 2013: Greenwich Mean Time
Lunar Eclipse Apr 25 2013 (GMT 20:06) 05° Scorpio 46'

Love and blessings as always to my fellow travellers as we move through the eclipse cycle....into the vortex!

It’s all about love

20th April 2013 Sun moves into Taurus

Hi everyone!

Mother Earth calling!

Take a breath!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What’s been happening: It’s like we’ve been hurtling through space and time as the Sun, Mars, Venus, Uranus and now Mercury have taken us through the Aries dimension. It’s been hot and fast. 

 

Unsettling energies of past week: This past week you may well have felt the unsettling impact of the planetary changes, with Pluto stationing retrograde last Friday, stirring up some mud followed by Mercury moving through the final degrees of Pisces (at the weekend), stirring up some emotional energy finishing off and finishing us off with respect to head/heart connections.

 

 

Mercury moved into Aries last Saturday (night AEST, morning in Northern hemisphere): fired up mentally, possibly agitated, frustrated

You may well have felt hyper awake and alert, unable to sleep and all steamed up mentally. That energy is still with us for a while, until 2nd May.

 

 

Venus moved into Taurus on Monday: Some peace at last

Then on Monday, Venus moved through the final degrees of Aries, firing us up with irritation, anger, frustration etc. before she moved into Taurus, helping us to come to peace and a good night’s sleep!

 

 

Sun moved towards a meeting with Mars in Aries on Friday: a building of frustration, irritation, anger, resentment over this past week until Friday, when the energies started receding as Mars and the Sun moved away from this intense fiery meeting. All about ‘head’ stuff, ego desires, forcing our own will against divine will.

 

With the Sun and Mars both moving into Taurus today, we’ll feel some relief in this pressure that was with us for the past week. Whew!!!

 

 

What’s coming in:

Four wheel drive time: It’s Taurus time...slow down and take your time to experience our beautiful world!

When planets change signs, there’s a change in the energy, a whole new playing field which calls us to change gears as in driving a car. We might find that we slow down/speed up as the landscape has changed and we need to drive our ‘vehicle’ in a different manner. Just like weather changes affect our driving style, so does the cosmic weather.

We’re moving into four wheel drive mode this week, with the Sun and Mars joining Venus in Taurus which is an earth sign, slower paced than Aries and more comfortable with an earthy existence. No rush!

 

 

Mercury still in Aries until 2nd May: keep the mind in check from wanting to run the show and run you ragged!

 

 

 

Hearts and physical bodies will be in sync in Taurus. It’ll be Mercury in Aries which will be stimulating our minds to take action, whilst our bodies and hearts just won’t be in the loop with this. It may well feel like an inner rebellion, unless you take charge of the mind. Otherwise, you’re likely to feel like you’re running on empty, with the body resisting being pushed and the heart all stirred up with conflicting emotions.

 

Mind out ahead of the body: Over these next two weeks, give your mind something positive and focussed to keep it happy. Throw your mind into a ‘project’ which requires mental agility rather than physical activity. Reading, writing, discussing, planning, working with ideas and communication will be supported with Mercury in Aries.

 

 

 

 

Buzzing brain syndrome: Our minds will be racing whilst our hearts and bodies will be wanting to take it easy.

 

Mercury now in Aries until May 2nd, will have heads/brains going a little crazy with thinking, talking and mental gymnastics.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Of course, it goes without saying, meditation is a wonderful release of the mind’s tight grip on our physical reality. Music will also help as Taurus is very much aligned with music, singing, playing, listening...whatever works for you. You will find it calming to the mind through this time.

 

 

 

Physical, emotional and mental challenges:

I posted a list a couple of postings back, with a widespread range of ascension symptoms which may have been manifesting.

However, giving a focus to current astrological energies, the following symptoms may be manifesting:

We have a big line-up of planetary energies in Aries which rules the head:

So, anything to do with the head including headaches, bumps to the head, sinus, ‘flu, head colds, eyes, ears, mouth, nose etc.

Mercury in Aries adding to the mind/head mix, breathing, throat, speaking, thinking

Mars has been in Aries, so blood pressure, anger, fire/cold energies

Venus is now out of Aries, but you may well have been having strange ‘heart’ energies which are not necessarily physical

 

Something I’ve come across very strongly with people I’m meeting is the following:

Digestion/indigestion

Sacral chakra energies rebalancing

 

Childbirth energies:   

Energies for release around childbirth/pregnancy/miscarriage/abortion which have been held in this sacral area. It includes your own mother’s pregnancy, pre-birth memories, ancestral memories as well as your own birth. 

 

It seems many women are releasing ancestral memories through this womb/sacral chakra. It may well be impacting digestion/gut as well as heart chakra.

 

 

Unusual diet/eating patterns: This may well be manifesting in strange eating patterns. Only a couple of months back I remarked on this to a friend saying ‘I guess this is how a pregnant women feels’ with strange eating desires as well as patterns. One day hungry, the next day not wanting any food. As I’ve never been pregnant I can only imagine from what I’ve heard!

I’ve put this down to the divine feminine energy bringing healing and balancing to the masculine warrior energy of Aries.

 

 

20th April:   

Sun moves into Taurus 8.03 am AEST...slow down, enjoy life on

earth!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We’re moving into ‘bull’ energy! Does that mean becoming bull-headed, being a bull in a china shop, or does it offer us the strength and persistence of the bull who stands his ground unflinchingly, feet solidly planted on the earth.

 

 

Determination, fortitude and persistence: Fortunately, the positive side of Taurus is a strength, fortitude and resilience which is unwavering. Taurus offers us the determination to live the dream in our physical existence. 

 

Grounding the dreams: With the entry of the Sun into Taurus for the next month, we’re being given some breathing space from all that fire energy which has been driving us along. At the same time, we’re being given the chance to bring some of those fiery dreams into reality.

 

 

Taurus is earthly abundance, feeling good about who are and what you have to offer:

 

This is the time to let go of any poverty consciousness, feelings of ‘less than’, issues around self-esteem and self worth which may be holding you back.

 

Taurus rules self-esteem/self-worth, gifts and talents and capacity to earn money. They all go together because they are about love, our own self-love and love of earthly life.

 

 

Taurus rules your resources including gifts and talents which can be utilised in making money:

 

 

This is the time to call up your personal resources including gifts and talents, possibly as yet undiscovered. You may well have gifts and talents which you don’t identify as gifts and talents. How many people think social skills are a gift? This is just one of many talents which we accept as who we are without recognising this as a particular strength which can be applied in the world of work. Time to open your eyes and hearts to your particular strengths and untapped abilities.

 

 

Heart rules us for the next month: make the connection from your heart to the heart of Mother Earth!

Taurus is earth and being ruled by Venus, calls us to enjoy being on the earth and all its sensual pleasures...food, beauty, sexuality...everything on a material/physical dimension which ignites the heart.

 

Our physical senses come alive in Taurus. Sight, sound, touch, smell, taste are enhanced and awakened anew under the Taurus Sun.  

 

 

Hold the image of what abundance means to you: In awakening to the earth and the abundance that is there for us, we make a connection to our own hearts and minds incorporating the belief that we have all we need and are abundantly supplied by the earth.

 

Hold the attitude of gratitude, reaffirming constantly how fortunate you are. Whatever you focus on you are reaffirming as a reality.

 

 

 

Money problems? Business dropping off?: Just a few thoughts to consider...follow the rainbow in your heart!

 

Do you love what you’re doing?

 

Do you believe in yourself and what you’re doing?

 

 

When the love ‘drops off’ and drops out of your business/work, you need to rethink what you’re doing. Maybe it’s time to move on, to refresh your business with new approaches, new ideas. You need to do something that excites and motivates you with fiery passion. That’s the greatest aphrodisiac for a business.

 

This next month/6 weeks is the time to really put your energies into this whole process of self-love, earth love and abundant faith.

 

 

Eclipse season for next 2 months: We’re really going to feel the benefit of these energies over the next couple of months as we move into eclipse ‘season’, a period of 6 weeks starting with next Friday’s Full Moon partial lunar eclipse in Scorpio. At that time, Taurus is opposite Scorpio and along with Scorpio is the major player in this eclipse series.

 

 

26th April: The Lunar eclipse in Scorpio will give a shift in perspective, illumination, insight around the issues I’ve outlined above.

 

 

10th May New Moon in Taurus, solar eclipse:   

Manifesting potential in our earthly lives intensifies with this New Moon!

 

 

20th April:   

Mars moves into Taurus at 9.48 pm AEST...this is four wheel drive mode for our physical being!

 

 

 

 

 

Mars, all fire and action, is slowed right down in Taurus whose pace is slow and steady, but making sure that progress is solid. If you know how to drive a 4 wheel drive off road, this energy will be right up your alley. Mars in Taurus wants to take us ‘off road’ which means to explore new regions, new possibilities...but at a slower pace.

 

 

 

Mars is our spirit of adventure, and is all about physical activity and movement. So, you can imagine what happens when it goes adventuring ‘off road’ with earthy Taurus. The adventuring will be slower paced, not necessarily sedentary. 

 

 

 

However, with the Taurus energy, you may well find the desire to just rest and relax, more than likely out in nature. We all need a bit of a physical break after all the Aries energy which may have been at times frustrating and irritating as the ego wanted its way, regardless of outside circumstances.

 

 

 

Caption for this picture:

‘I could lie here for the rest of my life’. It’s a good feeling like this which will free up our energies around the Aries control freak energy we’ve been experiencing. Will help with the ‘letting go/letting it come to you’ energy of Taurus.

‘Dulaity to Triality: divine will made manifest’ http://thinkwithyourheart.com/5605/duality-to-triality-divine-will-made-manifest/

Quote from above message:

The Pleiadians called the last 8 weeks of our lives “the most transformational portal of all our earthly existence”…and they assure us that the portal ahead is nothing compared to what’s behind us now. If we survived this passage…and truthfully, some people didn’t…what’s ahead of us will be like riding the wind.

You are turning the corner from living as what we would call a human DOing to a true human BEing, as you were originally designed and intended to BE. This switch in dynamic is the basis for your new reality system and one that requires the feminine principal of receiving to BE in first place…that you consciously BE first.

We know that this requirement, this learning, has been the bulk of the journey to arrive here…meaning, it is less complicated to be a human BEing when you are stripped of the energy, the desire, the will to DO…but it is a different thing to consciously put those principals in motion when the energy, the desire and the will returns. Now things will change in that you will need to put this concept into practice.

This moment in time IS that turning point…what we would call “the redirecting of the energy of DO”. -Pleiadian High Council

 

 

 

 

From Karen Bishop, early April: http://www.gamabooks.com/4.6.2013.html

You may well relate to the technology/communication problems many people are experiencing as we go through the big disconnect from the ‘old order’. Quite a number of people have mentioned this to me and on their websites.

 

 

 

 

Upcoming Dates:

26th April: Full Moon in Scorpio lunar eclipse

 

 

 

 

 

 

That’s it folks, we’re rolling along in Mother Earth’s loving arms!

 

 

As always, love and blessings
