In the light of the Leo Sun bringing divine enlightenment and
flushing out so much darkness within and without with the activation of the Full
Moon Eclipse.
Can you feel the emotions rising over this past week or so? We’re
on fire, on the boil, cooking up a storm of repressed emotional energies that
have been seeking release from within. Mother Earth is doing exactly the same,
heating up, burning up, drying up.
Blood Moon lunar
eclipse: Stirring the untapped fires within!
Apart from which we’ve all been shaken up, turned upside down and
inside out after the mammoth total lunar eclipse at the Full Moon in Aquarius.
It’s ongoing as we continue to be tumbled and rolled through this eclipse
passage.
If you didn’t experience an ‘awakening’ of some kind to shift you
out of the comfort zone just remember that the eclipse passage is not over
yet.
It’s the revolution: We’re being awakened to
our spiritual power!
The karmic release flowing on from the last Full Moon is palpable
and so many of us are feeling it in our physical being as well as emotionally,
mentally and spiritually. I really felt this one could have taken me out if I’d
let it but I maintain focus on my destiny...divine potential yet to be
manifest!
What’s been
happening:
1st August: Jupiter finally moving
on!
Getting back in the saddle...slowly.
Yes! Jupiter finally moving on from 13 degrees Scorpio after nearly 6 weeks of stillness since 20th June.
Now on 14 degrees until 14th August that's 14 days
Then 15 degrees from `14th to 22nd August that's 8 days.
Yes! Jupiter finally moving on from 13 degrees Scorpio after nearly 6 weeks of stillness since 20th June.
Now on 14 degrees until 14th August that's 14 days
Then 15 degrees from `14th to 22nd August that's 8 days.
This is significant movement forward
with respect to the death and dying energy of Sagittarian higher consciousness.
We're not exactly back in the saddle again as Jupiter our symbolic horse energy
is still wading through the Scorpio watery emotional depths until
November...but....the fact that this big positive, expansive planet is moving
forward will be increasingly felt by us all as an uplift of energy...albeit
minor.
Mars and Mercury our mover shakers are
both retrograde for a few more weeks so easy does it.
Mercury goes direct on 19th August
Mars direct on 27th August
Mercury goes direct on 19th August
Mars direct on 27th August
In the eclipse vortex: Back to
the past with Mars and Mercury both in retrograde
Reclaiming lost ‘pieces’ of
ourselves!
In the Aquarius stage of this eclipse journey,
flying through the cosmic turbulence of change bringing dramatic shifts and
turns to our journey. We're in the no time, no space vortex of the eclipse
energies.
Mars retrograde in Aquarius adding to
the confusion of change and shifting energies with fire and drive energies
rising and falling as we ride the currents.
Meanwhile, Mercury retrograde in Leo may be bringing you face to
face with lost, disowned, discarded or ignored aspects of the self which we need
ignited by the Leo Sun of passion and joy. I sure do feel this one feeling the
need to get back into crusader mode, at least temporarily, to demand equity,
justice and my entitlement to service.
The
Tower card in the Tarot encapsulates what many of us are experiencing, the inner
shocks, traumas, wake-up calls that throw all the inner status quo and state of
calmness into confusion with all the attendant emotions surfacing from within
the subconscious.

wounds!

Big healing energy for our masculine warrior self who is out of bounds, in retrograde mode and taking us back to heal the war wounds of past times.
With Taurus
energy, the likelihood of aches, pains, heaviness in the physical body
reflecting old memories locked into our physical being.
Healing old
warrior energy:
We're in the rehabilitation ward, releasing the shrapnel of swords, knives, bullets and shrapnel which have been locked in by trauma.
Emotionally, releasing the disappointment, sense of failure, loss and grief experienced as we 'died on the battlefields'.
We're in the rehabilitation ward, releasing the shrapnel of swords, knives, bullets and shrapnel which have been locked in by trauma.
Emotionally, releasing the disappointment, sense of failure, loss and grief experienced as we 'died on the battlefields'.
We need our
masculine warrior energy with us channeling all that old anger and need for
'power over' into creative passion which will bring the peace and harmony which
we seek.
Rest, replenish,
renew, recover and resuscitate in the light of the Leo Sun. We are healing
lifetimes of war!
7th August: Venus enters
Libra at 9.27 am AEST
Peace, harmony, love, balance and
justice!
Until 9th
September
Two
sides to the Libran coin:
Sweet love and peace along with fierce pursuit
of justice and equity!
Each zodiac sign carries a breadth of
consciousness which can manifest at the less or more evolved end of the spectrum
of consciousness. It’s not an either/or manifestation as we slide from one side
of the scale from ‘magical’ to ‘muggle’. For Libra, the ideal is love and
harmony through balance, equity and justice.
Divine partnership and marriage:
Starting
with the self...then on to significant others!
Venus calls us to experience divine love through
bringing peace, harmony, equity and justice to ourselves and into the earth.
So, it’s not all love and roses with Libran energy working on us. However, that
is the goal! And then we emerge from the shadows!
The swan who mates for life encapsulates the energies
of Libra as it floats along in harmony with the water and with its ‘mate’. It’s
what most people would like to experience in their significant partnerships and
one-on-one relationships.
What needs attention in your life right now?
The Eclipses are revealing what needs resolution!
Now’s the time when we can access that harmony,
peace and balance within ourselves as we set our lives in order with respect to
inequities, injustices, old pains and hurts which have brought up the energies
of pain, blame, shame, regret, disappointment or despair. As we bring the light
of unconditional love into our whole being we may feel guided to address the
imbalances within our karmic contracts, our hearts and our physical existence.
This may lead to taking necessary steps to call back
our power, to ‘forgive’ which is to send back whatever pain we’ve taken on from
others or for others. This can be intimate or marriage partners or
‘partnerships’ with family members, business partnerships and even the
government.
Who’s ‘carrying the can’ for who?
A personal note:
For me, this eclipse cycle has brought up unresolved
issues with regard to taking on the burdens of others and it has hit me between
the eyes in relation to my internet and phone provider and their failure to
support me since the beginning of July as I don’t have a home line and 2 weeks
without the internet. At a time when resting was the way to resolving the
injury in my leg I’ve been pushed to the limit but thanks to help from a new
friend I’m still here.
Libran partnerships include business, government,
contracts with companies. So my ‘crusader’ has been called back into ‘battle’
for myself and hopefully for others as I am one of many who is being downtrodden
by this major communication provider. Stay tuned for when I get my strength
back.
8th August: Uranus
stations retrograde at 2 degrees 34 Taurus at 2.50 am
AEST...awakening!
Until 6th January 2019
Stationing: Uranus intensity from 2nd
July to 15th September!
Ongoing inner shocks
awakening!
Uranus has been sitting on 2 degrees
since 2nd July and will be on that degree until 15th September when he moves
retrograde onto 1 degree Taurus. As an outer planet his movement is very slow
but carries a power which can stop us in our tracks.
Flushing the system with shock treatment
therapy:
Uranus rules the neuralgic system and Taurus is our
physical body connected to Mother Earth energy so we’re likely to continue
experiencing this electric shock treatment in our physical bodies. These sudden
‘shocks’ may come from external sources but they are initiating change and shift
in consciousness at the centre of our being as they ‘scare the s... out us’!
Uranus in Taurus: Awakening the
bull!
Remembering that Taurus as an earth sign is the most
fixed sign, the transit of Uranus lightning striker through this sign is like
‘awakening the bull’, symbol of Taurus. And we know what happens when a bull is
eventually aroused to take action...mad as hell!
Bottom line for the retrograde period:
Radical inner shifts!
Sudden changes in consciousness manifesting
in new directions!
This retrograde period may manifest in our physical
body (Taurus) as well as in our fire, drive and passion(Aries).
Uranus is the radical,
the rebel and the leading edge think tank which brings sudden shifts in our
thinking and mindsets which liberate us from shackles and ties which have kept
us suppressed, static or oppressed in old consciousness.
Long term:
Uranus in Aries from 6th November to 6th March 2019
Uranus returns to Aries
in retrograde motion on 6th November and will return to Taurus on 6th March 2019
which he will travel through for the next few years. So, we’ve had a bit of
‘taste’ of what’s ahead long term from March 2019.
8th August: Lions
Stargate comes to fullness
Look to Star Sirius, esoteric home of the
masters!
This is the day when the forces of light align to bring downloads
through what’s become known as the Lion’s Stargate, a portal which opens each
year, bringing access to higher consciousness.
From wiki:
The heliacal rising of Sirius was
a key calendar marker in ancient times. ... For Sirius, the arc comes to
about 11°. Assuming transparent skies and a minimum altitude of about 3° for
sighting Sirius, the heliacal
rising of the star would occur with the Sun about 8° below the
horizon.
The Lions Gate is the cosmic portal formed by the connection
between the star Sirius, the Great Central Sun, 'Alcyone' of the Pleiadian
system, our Earth’s Sun, Earth’s meridian points, Orion’s Belt, and the Great
Pyramid of Giza.
The Lion’s Gate portal activates when Earth and the Sun align
with Sirius, which is far bigger and brighter our Earth’s sun and is known as
the “spiritual sun.” Ancient stargazers believed that due to Sirius and the Sun
rising and setting at approximately the same time, the combined heat caused many
places on Earth to experience extreme weather conditions.
It is thought that while this energy portal is open, Sirius’
rays infiltrate planet Earth and help accelerate our personal and spiritual
evolution.
The connection between Sirius and the Sun intensifies this
energy, as they each radiate powerful, high vibrations. This gifts Earth a brief
and rare opportunity (known as a “star gate”) to absorb the energy from the two
brightest and most supercharged celestial bodies in our
sky.
July and August are already highly transformational months due
to the eclipse cycle. Mercury also went retrograde on the same day the Lion’s
Gate doorway opened, adding to this the Full Moon Eclipse we just passed though
the accumulation of all of this energy has had a massive impact on many of
us.
The Lion’s Gate energy is connected to the heart centre and is
symbolic of feminine courage, expression, and strength. It is known to help us
emotionally, physically, and spiritually prepare for the next chapter in our
lives.
The effects of this energy will likely show in signs of
increased anxiety, irritability, frustration, impatience, lethargy, and
forgetfulness, as we move toward a major junction in our
lives.
Retrograde planetary energies: Slow and
steady, on we go...knowing when to move, mark time,
backpedal!
And
speaking of a hundred or so retrograde planets...

That’s all folks!
Hugs all
around!
We’re travelling fast ‘undercover’ as the mammoth changes exact
their influence on us all both according to our natal chart and as the current
planetary sky. We get it all ways!
We’re heading to the New Moon Partial Solar Eclipse in Leo on 11th
August AEST. Remember that for about 3 days before the New Moon arrives we’re
in ‘the dark of the moon’, the Balsamic Moon which is the time for releasing the
past lunar month.
I know I’m not alone in embracing this New Moon and the promise of
lighter and happier times. The New Moon will bring the promise of more light
with Leo, more revelations with the eclipse as well as a bit of a tight one with
Jupiter in Scorpio squaring off to Mercury, retrograde in Leo! More memory
release from the mental energies as Jupiter continues through the sign of death,
transformation and rebirth!
Love and blessings to us all as
we negotiate these challenging energies. Hang in there with divine faith and
trust even as we keep learning to let go!

thread
It’s all about
love
Divine
reunion
