Hi everyone!
The Virgo Sun shines radiantly across the fields
of golden wheat, the energies she rules as offers up her gifts from the earth,
heals us spiritually through her divine providence.
What’s been happening:
We’ve got a very heavy planetary presence in Virgo and Leo which has been
working on the healing and divine alignment of body, mind, heart and spirit.
All the personal planets, Mars, Mercury and Venus are working together with this
divine alignment bringing major adjustments supported by the Sun in Virgo and
carried forward with the eclipse energies activated at the New Moon Solar
Eclipse in Leo 2 weeks ago.
The Leo path of heart is carrying us through the
purification:
We’re being carried by the Leo fire of the great
solar energy which burns and releases the dross of many lifetimes, burdens,
memories. This energy is working magnificently with the Virgo focus on healing
purification, one of her major roles in our lives. As we purify body, mind and
spirit our heart is gradually coming into the full light of divine love, the Leo
energy.
The eclipse energies:
Through the full moon in Pisces release and
on to the new doorway...the New Moon in Virgo on 20th September!
We’re still travelling within the eclipse
energies of change, sudden shifts and turns which can take us by surprise, shock
the fears, doubts and insecurities out of us with lightning speed.
Maintain focus on the spiritual goal:
As long as we remain focussed on our spiritual goal we’ll make it through
to a newer and better place on this earth in our lives. The focus needs to
remain on what we can do for our own evolution and to let go of the need to
‘save the world’. As we ‘save’ ourselves and uplift our visions, we contribute
to the whole of the humanity and its evolution.
The painful past is dissolving gradually:
Keep moving with hope,
optimism and divine faith in ourselves as the spirit of creation!
We’ve come this far and been through mountains of old painful energies and
memories and it is ongoing but we are the creators of our reality and we are
consciously choosing to change the patterns of inequity and injustice in the
world as we focus on divine love and freedom. We are a work in progress but as
we break through our own limitations and restrictions in whatever we can, we
break the karmic ties for others across the planet. That’s how consciousness
works. It’s a universal force that binds us together so that when one entity
shifts the focus, the whole of humanity shifts the focus.
‘Trying a little kindness’ instead of opinionated posturing which
separates and divides us all:
Step out of the fighting and conflict and into
our power!
We are facing a rising resistance as we move forwards to creating ‘paradise
on earth’, our creation from within our minds, hearts, bodies and spirits as we
envisage love and kindness on this planet within us and without. As we keep the
focus on how we are manifesting mastery of our lives and our personal world, we
are making a difference...every one of us!
1st September: Mercury retrograde entered Leo at 1.27
am AEST
Mercury returned to Leo in
retrograde motion putting us in touch with the fire of spirit within to assist
us to burn off some more of old karmic energies, mindsets, patterns of thinking
and nervous reactions which have been a constant in our lives. Remember, it’s
not just about us.
3rd September:
Mercury
met/conjoined Mars at 29 degrees, the Leo eclipse point!
Breakthrough,
breakout!
Rebooting mind and body!
Mercury, our mind manager met
with Mars, ruler of our physical body, our fire and drive on the solar eclipse
degree in Leo giving us a huge fiery kickstart and potential release of old
mental energies held within the body which have been keeping us back from the
full expression of our shining essential Leo energies of our inner Sun.
If
you've been working with the mental as anything Mercury retrograde energy along
with Mars turning us into hotheads, this may well have been experienced as a
relief of a lot of that ‘monkey mind’ energy. We may even start getting some
peaceful sleep, those of us who are solving 'problems' all through the night! Of
course, things will settle further when Mercury turns direct on 5th September
and makes his way forward into Virgo on 10th September. Then we’ll find out how
many old patterns and habits have been kicked for good.

Clearing the head!
Until 22nd October
Art: Allison Kinnarid
Hyped up and raring to go!
But...where?
Mars is a major ‘mover and shaker’ of our energies as he is all fire, drive
and physical energy. So what happens when he goes into Virgo, the sign of the
healer but also a sign ruled by Mercury, our mind energy, ruler of our mental
body.
Yes, get organised but be careful not to overdo or push beyond
current cosmic forces!
There may well be a feeling of needing to get
organised, practical and wanting to get it done...fast! We need to be reminded
that Mercury turns direct just a few hours after Mars enters Virgo but will be
moving slowly still in Leo which is giving us time to access the fire and
passion within the mind as we move past the blockages which came up during
Mercury retrograde.
Virgo wants everything neat and tidy, spick and span!
Easy does it
with the ‘house cleaning’!
We’re purifying and cleansing our physical bodies and we may feel like
going overboard with the domestic cleaning, office tidying if we get sucked into
the old ‘perfectionism’ that is a manifestation of the 3D Virgo energies. Ease
and grace like Daisy Duck...easy peasy!
New guidance being downloaded during the Full Moon
in Pisces: Time to access dreams and hopes!
Also, we are on the edge of a Full Moon in Pisces which promises new
spiritually uplifting perspectives which will give more focus, direction and
meaning to any moves we need to make to adjust our physical world, our thinking
and our plans. We may change our whole direction following on from this Full
Moon which is about letting go old energies and liberating spiritually.
Raising consciousness of our masculine energies: Clearing the
head!
Hold steady with this energy as it can bring in the masculine warrior
energy who feels in charge and ready to run with all the practicalities of
physical life that need attention. Waiting a little longer to enact big stuff
will serve us well. As we learn patience and faith by practising it, we are
backing ourselves to know when the energies will be most fruitful for us to take
action.
Healing:
Mars rules: fire, drive, masculine energy of action, the head/eyes
Virgo rules: purification, digestive system, nerves, respiratory
system
5th September:
Mercury stations/turns direct at 28
degrees 25 Leo at 9.29 pm AEST

10th September: Mercury enters Virgo
More
rebooting for our mental body: Mercury’s getting clearance for take
off!
Here’s
a trigger point as Mercury connects with the last New Moon in Leo Solar Eclipse
degree. He met with Mars just a couple of days ago and now he’s ready to move
on. Clearly we’re doing big mental realignment with this significant degree in
Leo and it is about bringing the light into the mental body, burning off the
dross of other times and places.
Mercury/Mars
combo firing us with movement and mental activity: Mind/body on the
move!
With Mars moving direct into Virgo, Mercury will
be getting us fired with Leo passion and they’re urging us to get moving. Feel
the energies flowing in but hang about a bit until the Full Moon comes through
bringing a whole lot of inspiration! Mind/body team gearing up for action very
soon.
Inspirational
energies flowing in with the Full Moon: Take the time to
receive!
There’s a lot of mental energy coming forth just
before we move into the fullness of the Full Moon in Pisces which will be
calling us to get in touch with our emotions, visions, hopes and dreams along
with our spiritual upliftment. It may feel like the Mars/Mercury combo may want
to pull us back into the mental meanderings but the trick will be working with
the mind along with the emotions in the creative process of visualisation and
visionary thinking.
5th
September to 19th September: Mercury in shadow retrograde
Yes,
we’ll be starting to feel more energised and focussed as we move through the
shadow period providing we’ve been doing the amazing mental clearance work and
making adjustments to our thinking and behaviour during the Mercury retrograde
period. Retrograde Mercury has brought up old issues, patterns from our
unconscious whether in our dream state or in our day to day living.
19th
September: Mercury leaves shadow retrograde at 11 degrees Virgo just
before the New Moon in Virgo on 20th September. That will be a starting date in
the diary as we move out of the eclipse energies and start to enact some serious
changes in our lives!
Healing:
Mercury rules: respiratory
system, nervous system
Leo rules: heart, backbone,

A MERMAID HAS CLIMBED TO THE ROCKY SHORE OF A
BLEAK COAST, SHE AWAITS THE PRINCE WHO WILL BRING HER IMMORTALITY
This Symbol shows the desire to find a
partner or a place in the world where you feel you belong and can contribute;
finding a place to ‘come ashore’ in life, establish a career and a life that
feels worthwhile. You will be able to make sense of your intuitive or creative
thoughts as you grow and find both your feet and your voice. In finally being
able to verbalize things into rational expression, you will be creating from
your intuitive wisdom. However, there needs to be a caution against expecting
others to verify your existence through your relationship with them. Being self
reliant whilst inviting others into your life is the balance here. Coming into
conscious form. New ways of being. Transformation. Emerging evolution. Finding
love in difficult times. Waiting for one's “prince” or “princess” to come. Soul
mates.
6th September:
Full Moon in Pisces at 13 degrees 53
Pisces at 5.02 pm AEST
Dream big!
It’s a release, a completion, a surrender to the higher spiritual
forces!
The full moon energies of this week promise an emotional release and
spiritual uplift as the full moon sits in the sign of higher spirituality and
consciousness.
Pisces ruler Neptune is up close to the Full Moon adding strength to the
focus for raising our emotions, hearts and spirits to the big picture...the
visions!
Rising from the collective unconscious whirlpool of
emotions:
As we reach for the heights, the cosmic energies
are assisting us to let go of so much we’re carrying of the collective
unconscious which have been weighing us down. The feelings of entrapment,
confinement and emotional burdens of the masses are a part of the brief of the
Pisces energies which challenge us to transcend emotionally.
Reach for the dreams and let the old burdens fall
away:
We’re all plugged into the collective
unconscious in varying degrees which can vary from moment to moment as we evolve
our consciousness out of the collective whirlpool of emotional confinement into
the higher expression of our divine connections.
Unplugged and released:
From ‘poor me’ to ‘lucky
me’!
Never been a better time to unplug from those aspects of the 3D collective
unconscious which keep sucking us down...the energies of self sacrifice at the
expense of ourselves, martyrdom, victim consciousness ‘poor me’ syndrome and all
those memories from other times and places which keep us in the prison of old
emotions, experiences and the path of pain and suffering.
Dream big, envision possibilities beyond previous imaginings:
Contact those ‘pie in the sky’ dreams...to dream the impossible
dream!
Here we are at the ‘pie in the sky’ full moon,
the moon of dreams beyond what seems probable or realistic. The bigger, the
better! To make the most of this full moon we need to get in touch with dreams
which have seemed beyond our realistic vision.
The expression ‘la la land’ has recently become popularized by the movie of
that title. Let’s remember that ‘la la land’ is the land of endless
possibilities and realities which we can access when we start ‘dreaming the
dream’.
Origin of the expression ‘pie in the sky’: http://www.culinarylore.com/food-history:pie-in-the-sky-expression
This expression comes from an activist for equity and justice, Joe Hill, a
unionist from the early 20th century who gifted the workers with the words of
freedom and release, set to a Salvation Army hymn preaching martyrdom and
suffering as the means for gaining salvation in ‘the after life’. Video clip of
the song at the end of this update.
Artistic awakenings: Neptune and the Pisces Full Moon...the
artistic inspirations are flowing in!
Be open and receptive! It’s a blank
canvas!
It’s a family affair with Neptune, Pisces
ruling planet adding a huge dollop of artistic and spiritual invigoration to our
weary spirits. The inspirational forces available to us all at this Full Moon
are absolutely immense so if the artistic urges strike, pick up the paintbrush,
create the music, write the poetry, dance the dance and fill the soul with the
messages of spirit that flow through as creative inspiration.
The world’s affair with cameras and images is enhanced and enlivened as we
see what we haven’t seen before. Our artistic senses are wide open and if we’re
in a receptive space we’ll be accessing new dimensions of joy. Similarly, the
dream state is bringing in some amazing experiences. Just relax and be aware of
these powerful messages to take us forward. New doors are opening!
The planetary energies at this Full
Moon
The Sun in Virgo: Opposite the Full Moon in Pisces
Grounding, healing and balancing: Walking the ‘fields of gold’!
As we experience the emotional uplift...yes, uplift at this Full Moon, the
Virgo Sun is offering a welcome release as the urge to do something practical
and earthy may well kick in. The emotions are always big at a Full Moon and
often ‘over the top’ but this Full Moon offers an uplift providing we’re
prepared to look ‘up’ to the dreams and let the old stuff just drop off.
Practical possibilities and solutions on offer: Take note and play
with the ideas!
The Sun will also be offering up practical possibilities for enacting those
‘pie in the sky’ dreams. All we have to do is take note either mentally or
physically jot them down to review once we move on from the emotional flood of
inspiration. Main thing is to capitalise on the influx of joy and hope which
this full moon brings and allow ourselves some time and space to formulate
future directions.
With Mars in Virgo and Mercury direct there will be the urge to act
now and that’s ok but big decisions need to be taken after the Full
Moon loses its powerful impact which can be deceptive and misleading. Get the
full picture. 3 days either side of the Full Moon is a time to let go of
decision making and just experience what the moon has to offer.
Helping the Sun: Pluto in trine to the Virgo Sun...powerful doors
to physical manifestation!
Pluto, Lord of Transformation, Death and Rebirth is hooking up to the Virgo
Sun in a flowing trine, opening the doors of physical manifestation as Pluto
sits on 16 degrees in earthy Capricorn.
Capricorn’s ruler Saturn is now on the move in Sagittarius but still on 21
degrees moving slowly but now moving direct and will move onto 22 degrees in a
couple of weeks time. After that he’ll be gradually putting on more speed and
offering more power to our manifesting potential. The New Moon in Virgo on 20th
September will be the doorway out of the eclipse and forward with new plans,
bringing them into physical reality.

The
Full Moon: Pisces 14
A LADY WRAPPED IN FOX FUR
This
shows being able to present an image that shows intelligence, cleverness,
glamour and beauty, along with knowing how to move in social circles. The “Lady
Wrapped in Fox Fur” is someone who’s sure of themselves, able to bend to
situations and have situations bend to their own desires. It often shows getting
out of, or into, anything they want. You can present an image that enhances your
position in society. Intelligence and wit will probably see you through, with
others noticing your beauty, grace or intellect. If, however, the guise was
stripped away, would you still express the same qualities? You may have to
display your capabilities because of negative prejudice, chauvinism, or being
underestimated. Outer expressions of inner worth. Animal magnetism. Being
wrapped in intellectual superficiality. Tempting others. Sexual signals. One's
own style. Perfumes. Totems.
The
Sun: Virgo 14
FINELY LETTERED NAMES AND MYSTERIOUS LINES
ARE SEEN; IT IS A FAMILY TREE
This shows deep and abiding connections that
come from families and their ancestors and individual family trees. There is a
need to feel somehow linked with ancestry, a place or belonging. However, this
can speak about you belonging to the larger human family – we are all related.
Being able to call upon the deeper inherent knowledge within yourself and what's
been learnt from past experience, possibly from one's ancestral roots, will help
you find great strength. This implies a strong family heritage, but it may come
from having a deep connection with people or things that you are not actually
related to, but are in your “Family” nonetheless. Strength in tradition. Stories
of where one comes from - where one's going. Knowing where you fit in. Links and
chains. Origins. Genealogy. Inheritances. Ancestors. Heritage.

Hugs all around!
We’re riding those waves of change in harmony and balance with each other
and with higher consciousness. Every time we get thrown out of alignment we’ve
been bringing ourselves back into harmony with ourselves, our spiritual goals
and our hopes and dreams.
Even without our conscious knowledge of alignment one with another, we’re
doing it purely because of the growing consciousness of the masses in choosing
the path of love, of equity, truth, justice and unification across the world.
How many are saying ‘there’s got to be a better way which is kind and loving and
fair to all’.
Love and blessings to us all as we maintain our focus, commitment,
dedication and faith to creating a world which is built on beauty, love,
harmony, acceptance of all. Yes, it might be ‘pie in the sky’ in the minds of
many but no growth and expansion has happened without the dreamers and those of
us who imagine, envision and take our little steps where we can to address the
inequities, hatred, cruelty and rejection being experienced by so many in our
world.
