stellArium & ethereal counterparts

the period between the two eclipses this early November 2022, is a turning point .. as we enter deeper into dark Scorpio energies , we are called yet for another personal and collective transmutation experience with the first quarter Moon (1.11.2022) in Aquarius square Sun and Venus in Scorpio which are trine Juno in Pisces , Mars 25° Gemini turned retrograde opp. Galactic Center and grand trine Vesta in Aquarius and Eros+Psyche in Libra , Venus conjunct South Node opp. Uranus and Kali in Taurus which are trine Ceres in Virgo .. we are feeling enough detachment to shed old skins and let go of outdated attachments and mental modes ; in terms of emotional patterns we are freeing ourselves of much density .. we no longer fear the inner silence which allows space for focusing on the sacred dimension of our being there’s a smooth sailing in being aligned with our ultimate purpose and being carried by the Faith that all is well .. in being the Flame and the Light we have come here to be “Dar

Full Moon/Total Lunar Eclipse 21.01.2019 @ 5:16:04 gmt, 7e23 - 43n42 This full moon is considered a super Moon because of its proximity to the Earth - which amplifies the impact of all energies at hand. As it is also the last of an exceptionally long and eventful series of eclipses on the Leo-Aquarius axis, this total lunar eclipse at 0°52 Leo does have a connection with the total lunar eclipse of July 2018; it will make us deal with unresolved issues from that period and will give a final push for the "old" to be released.. and mark at the same time a memorable shift of energies at a collective level - to be followed by a period of intense ethereal/magnetic activity during the whole of 2019 and in particular during the month of February. to mention a few aspects: while Saturn in Capricorn is getting ever closer to its conjunction to Pluto over the South Node of the Moon, the eclipse in Leo - forms a conjunction with the North Node in Cancer - an oppositio

11°cancer37 on 2.01.2018 at 02:24 (UT) When a house is on fire, the vessel salvaged is the one that will be of use, not the one left there to burn. So when the world is on fire with aging and death, one should salvage [one’s wealth] by giving: what’s given is well salvaged. Whoever here is restrained in body, speech, and awareness; who makes merit while he’s alive: that will be for his bliss after death. ~ Buddha  —————————————- alright this is my first 2018 astrology post, it is about the first full moon in Herculean times and about its fate-full kite planetary formation of which I can speak from the heart of my own experience I keep beating your ears with cycles and patterns but under this Moon i could also tell you about hereditary patterns and karmic refrains about how there can be no Life without Love for it is the generating Source about how there can be no evolution, spiritual path or Transcendence without Metamorphosis .. about how there can

Gibran, The Broken Wings 1912     chart for New Moon on 5 june 2016 , 2:59 UT , 7e23 - 43n42 this New Moon at 14°53 Gemini should bring much needed elegantly and clearly presented information in the midst of the current confusing "re-period" (multi-retrograde-planets-period) it comes with a septile to Uranus, a quincunx to Pluto and an outstanding grand mutable cross involving Sun.Moon.Venus (conjunction) in Gemini Saturn retrograde in Sagittarius Neptune.Chiron in Pisces Jupiter.North-Node in Virgo All these forces pulling in many direct

  A butterfly emerging from a chrysalis. Key: The capacity to utterly transform the character of one's consciousness by radically altering the structural patterns of everyday living and the types of relationships one enters upon. Here what is emphasized is the process of metamorphosis itself. The symbol stresses the essential character of the activity required at this stage of the cycle; i.e. nothing short of a complete renewal of all the implications of being alive as a human individual will do. A radical change is needed. At this stage, this change is individual and mental, and it should be seen against the background of humanity as a whole. What is revealed is the potential ability of every human being to participate in a higher realm of evolution AFTER his or her emergence from a critical state of transition. At this stage the Keyword is METAMORPHOSIS. In spiritual terms, this implies "Initiation," i.e. entering a higher realm of conscious existence an

There is a great Master of Masters, the Indweller of your heart.  Turn the gaze inwards, withdraw the Indriyas and seek His help.  Rest in Him. Identify yourself with Him. Search Him in your heart.  - Swami Sivananda Full Moon 22 July 2013, 18:52:32 gmt, 7e15 43n42 hear your inner master is he calling you to meet the current challenge of sustainability? interestingly Guru Purnima celebration this year (our thanking of teachers and masters) coincides with Jupiter (conjunct Mars and Lilith) aligning in a grand trine with Saturn and Neptune announcing the Star of David configuration An old Adobe mission in California. Key: The power inherent in all great human works to endure far beyond the workers' life spans. The works and spirit of the Spanish priests who directed the building of the California missions have had a lasting influence on the development of this land; these remain as a monument to the men who were able to make their mark upon this alien

"Geometrically speaking, the equilateral triangle is the most stable of all forms. The astrological grand trine normally links the three aspects of each of the four elements. It presents every mode of existence in its essentially threefold nature. It is unique in all astrological configurations in that it is composed of only one kind of aspect — and just as the grand cross is the archetype of all rectangular patterns in astrology, the grand trine occupies the same position in relation to triangular configurations. The equilateral triangle symbolizes in most religions perfection of being — i.e., God as the supreme foundation of all existence. In that sense, it is the symbol of both a static and transcendent condition. It contains no opposition aspect; therefore, it is essentially subjective. It simply is, without conflicts, what it is. However, if an expansive planet like Jupiter dominates a grand trine, this 'what it is' may keep enlarging itself

The Pythia during this full moon activating the December 2012 solstice the Cancer Moon is opposing the Sun conjunct Pluto which is part of three major triangular patterns : a Kite, a T-Square and a Yod.  Cancer full moon 28 December 2012, 10:21:11 gmt, 7e15, 43n42 The T-Square involving Sun.Pluto, Moon and Uranus is once again triggering the social tensions currently at play (Uranus Pluto ongoing square). But we may be seeing some solutions to this 'crisis' now with the help of the kite formation. A Kite pattern is formed as Sun.Pluto are at the apex point opposite the Moon in Cancer which is in a grand trine with Saturn in Scorpio and Chiron.Neptune in Pisces. Sun.Pluto stand in sextiles with the latter two and can thus allow for the outward objective manifestation of the balanced self-sufficient fullness of the water trine configuration. In mutual reception, Saturn in Scorpio and Pluto in Capricorn are sextile and inconjunct to Jupit

Mercury and its orbit - Ottoman illuminated and illustrated version of ʿAjāʾib al-makhlūqāt (Wonders of creation) by Zakarīyā al-Qazwīnī   The Mercury cycle according to Rudhyar :   In the usual kind of geocentric astrology no distinction is made between the two kinds of conjunction of Mercury and the Sun, except that at "inferior" conjunction Mercury is retrograde, while at "superior" conjunction Mercury is direct. In heliocentric astrology the situation is quite different, because an inferior geocentric conjunction of Mercury and the Sun means that the Earth is conjunct Mercury, while a superior geocentric conjunction indicates that the Earth is in opposition to Mercury. Thus when Mercury is retrograde geocentrically, Mercury is heliocentrically near the Earth; and at the heliocentric conjunction of Mercury and the earth, a line is formed by Sun, Mercury and Earth, with Mercury and Earth, with Mercury between the Sun and the Earth thus as

This Sagittarius New Moon on 25 November 2011 coincides with a partial Solar Eclipse. With nearly 90% obscuration of the Sun, the eclipse will be visible across Antartica and New Zealand. Solar Eclipse 25 November 2011, 6:09:40gmt, 7e15, 43n42 Symbol : Two men playing chess According to Rudhyar,  the transmutation of man's natural aggressiveness under most conditions of existence is essential to socio-cultural living. Many rituals, sports and games have no other basic aim. In chess, the struggle between light and darkness (the Yang and Yin forces) is ritualized, ending in most cases with the checkmating of the king (the ego, the conscious self). In a dualistic world such a contest between polarized forces is omnipresent. The chess game trains men to be more objective, more careful, more aware of whole situations — and less impulsive and intent upon side issues. This symbol deals with conflict, but at a group culture level. Keynote: The transcendent rituali

November Full Moon, 10.11.2011, 20:16:05 gmt, 7e15, 43n42 Symbol 19° Taurus: A New Continent Rising Out Of The Ocean key word : spontaneity according to rudhyar : a new horizon emerges once the crisis is over. when the mind has been emptied and light has been called upon to purify the consciousness - freed from its attachment and contaminations - a new release of life can emerge out of the infinite Ocean of potentiality, the virgin SPACE. rudhyar ends with this question : what will it be used for? in the above full moon chart, aside from the Sun Moon opposition asking us to achieve a Mars-Venus balance between crisis-prone transformative passionate Scorpio and placid stability-loving Taurus or between the lord of the Underworld (Plutonian Scorpio) and Gaïa (Taurean Mother Earth), there is on one hand a rather cheerful and expansive conjunction between Mercury and Venus in Sagittarius slowly approaching the North Node which allows for a warm and wider perspective (

The knot as an interconnection of spiritual energies with life forces. Full Moon chart for 12 October 2011, at 2:05:43 GMT, 7e15 43n42 symbol 19° aries  : The "Magic Carpet" Of Oriental Imagery according to Rudhyar this symbol refers to the "use of creative imagination' "A way of life refusing a hectic involvement in social competition and waste-producing overproduction allows for the development of unattached and transcendent understanding. The static floor (carpet) on which man's feet (symbols of understanding) rest can become transformed into the means for great flights of imagination and super-physical perception. The period of rest from outwardly directed activity bound to collective normality presents the creative mind with the possibility of surveying in dreams the totality of the present-day social situation, thus "to see whole." We can also consider a carpet as a grid made of knots and perceive its magical visu

Alignments of heavenly bodies are revealers - they operate and manifest thru progressive stages. The effects of eclipses are slow: they start with what is visible to the naked eye. After further scrutiny over the less perceptible, they reach a peak revealing then a need for rectification .. later on, what lied completely hidden at the beginning comes to the fore - in all clarity and full meaning. The same goes for any planetary cycle : there are as many stages of manifestations to be considered as there are aspects forming between two celestial bodies that move along. But we generally tend to reduce the cycle to four stages which represent the main 'crisis' points. The present Jupiter.Pluto cycle which started on December 11 2007 with a conjunction at 28°24 Sagittarius, was also aligned with the much talked about Galactic Center and has recently moved into its waxing square .. closing thereof the first chapter to this Jupiter.Pluto.Galactic Center story.
