we praise good thoughts, good words and good deeds
performed here and elsewhere
now and in the past
we revere them and we remember them

symbol 3° Aries:
“The Cameo Profile Of A Man, Suggesting The Shape Of His Country”
Rudhyar's key : The sustaining power of the Whole, as the individual identifies themselves with It’s life.
With Neptune in Pisces and the Grand Earth Trine running over the past months... I have felt that, except for redundancy, there's been little to convey about recent astrological alignments and cycles.
Earth element doesn't like words as much as 'being'.
But days before Pluto in Capricorn goes retrograde again, I thought I'd publish a post for the first Full Moon of the solar year.
This first Sol-i-Lunar opposition (full moon in libra), while asking us to find an inner/outer equilibrium, also operates fully like a mirror to our most secret dreams and wishes.
It does reflect how its rulers and eternal lovers Venus and Mars (respectively in Gemini and Virgo) as they meet in a Grand Cross also involving Neptune and the North Node ... bring to our experience an essential life-principle:
we need to be mutually supportive if our deepest desires are to be shaped into reality.
In our aim for a higher goal and finer future, we better charge our wishes and desires with positive, hopeful, devoted and elevated energy. The Nodes and Neptune require utter clarity and transparency towards ourselves and others.
The energies at play here are complex and powerful. They may seem self-contained but they hide deep intense feelings that can turn volatile, moody or turbulent - if properly channeled they will be very propitious for creative activities, romance, visualization and lucid dreaming.

Symbol Libra 18°:
Two men under arrest.
Key according to Rudhyar:
A breakdown in the constructive relationship between the individual and society, and the expectable result.
If it is to remain steady and consistent, every form of order must be able to protect itself by the application of sanctions. Both a society and a personal ego constitute forms of order. Any form of order excludes what the form cannot securely and safely hold. It excludes, or exiles, the alien, the unassimilable; if it cannot send them to outer space, it must isolate them in a special type of inner space, a prison. The individual whose actions introduce unacceptable principles into the established order runs the risk of being "punished" or re-formed according to this order. The problem for a society is how to include in its patterns of order agencies or channels for transformation — and particularly how to keep them truly operative; for individuals, it is how to make their transforming vision or impulse acceptable to society. The symbol does not reveal what caused the breakdown in the relationship between the individual and society; but if one also considers the symbols that follow, one's thoughts may be led back to the image of the storm that wrecked boat landings (Phase 196). The suggestion is that whatever violence is released originates in unconscious pressures (the sea and the wind). A new step in the evolution of society — the Industrial and Electronic Revolutions of the last hundred and fifty years — caused a collective, world-wide upheaval which led to widespread violence. The fact that two men are pictured under arrest suggests a polarization and a purpose transcending a merely personal fit of recklessness.
Negative as the image may seem, one may see implied in it the power in every individual to assume social risks in order to express his convictions or deepest desires. Nevertheless, one thing is needed: FACING THE CONSEQUENCES.
