Lunations - Trends for All Signs
FULL MOON
October 6, 2006 at 11:13 PM DST
This Full Moon opposes not only the Sum but Venus and Mars as well! How we identify ourselves, who and what we love, and the very passion that we hold for life is greatly illuminated. This Full Moon, more than any other lunation this year validates each of us in our individuality and freedom to choose how we develop our gifts and present them to the World. The fixed T-square with Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune is still in dynamic suspension! Neptune, still retrograde, feeds the confusion even at Full Moon. Do we expand and grow or pull back and rest on our security? Pluto in T-square to the Nodes reminds us that we have forever - but each step brings us closer.
NEW MOON
October 22, 2006 at 01:15 AM DST
WOW! What a line-up! This lunation chart reveals Venus, Sun, Moon and Mars all gather closely on the Libra/Scorpio cusp! Our daily lives embrace friends and loved ones as a constant now. Mercury and Jupiter are kissing in Scorpio in square to Saturn. Our thoughts are compel us toward expanding our horizons and following the dictates of our hearts. It is time to take a deep breath and reinvest ourselves in our vision for the future. The North Node or Dragon's Head forms a trine to the Mercury/Jupiter conjunction lending us both compassion and imagination for what lies ahead.
Mercury Retrograde Alert!
Mercury retrogrades the same day that Neptune resumes direct motion! Talk about trading places! Mercury will be going retrograde on October 28th, 2006 at 3:08 PM until it stations direct on November 17th, 2006. Just as we expected the confusion to dissipate, we need to rethink our possibilities and intentions! The thinking planet will appear to be backing up in Scorpio! We are called to ask ourselves where are true motivations lie in all that we entertain! Go with your deepest instincts now!
Uranus Retrograde Alert!
Uranus retrogrades in Pisces on June 19, 2006 at 02:31 AM EDT until November 19, 2006 at 10:57 PM EST. The nervous system in general may experience a reprieve and revelations by peering through the retrospect window can be astounding! To further complicate matters, the North Node enters Pisces the following day! This passage occurs every 18.6 years and lasts nearly a year and a half. For the collective consciousness this manifests more in the realm of how we attach ourselves to our fellow beings here on Earth. Sorrows spur compassion; miracles bring great joy. The solitary soldier pales from view.
Neptune Retrograde Alert!
Neptune retrogrades in Aquarius on May 22, 2006 until October 29, 2006. It is easy now to see futuristic concepts and philosophies evident in ancient times. We desire to bring hope forward even in the face of dynamic progress and the quickening we have been experiencing on different levels. The dance Neptune does with Jupiter in Scorpio this year calls us to go deeper and redefine true prosperity. Its confrontations with Saturn in Leo call us to a higher inspiration!
Chiron Retrograde Alert!
Chiron retrogrades in Aquarius on May 15, 2006 until October 12, 2006. Although Chiron has a reputation for being a planetoid all about healing, in Aquarius, its conceptual energy is equally acute. During the retrospect cycle, we see our hidden motivations and elusive ambitions with greater clarity. As Chiron moves forward, we feel a sense of the Sun rising, the rainbow after the storm. Old wounds heal and past battles become the soldier's bond. CHEER!
