birthing




the voyage's been long and the winds blow strong
time to leave the ego-boat, johnny .. time to flow

they name it the Solstice Ring of Fire Solar Eclipse  




Solstice

New Moon in Cancer
21 June 2020 at 06:41 UTC



hours after the Earth passes its 0° Cancer solstice point - 20.6.2020
the New Moon occurs at 0°21 Cancer (same degree as eclipse of 21 june 2001) and stages an annular solar eclipse or ring of fire when the Sun and Moon align with the Earth - 21.6.2020

New Moon quincunx Saturn in Aquarius and five retrograde planets : 
Venus, Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto
are all aspects during this lunation which inflict necessary restriction and delays on the new cycle's impetus

Many steps have recently led to this point - in particular since the eclipse 26.12.2019 which was followed by the great alignment of Saturn Pluto and later Jupiter in Capricorn .. 
since then, the lunar nodes have moved from the Cancer-Capricorn axis to Gemini-Sagittarius 
therefore even-though Saturn doesn't play as much of a grinder as it did before and its brief step-into Aquarius was to prepare the 'grounds' for the future 
Mercury and Jupiter the nodes' rulers are currently both retrogrades in Cancer-Capricorn  
indicating that after much karmic release we will now be asked to embrace a new sense of truth

this eclipse portal truly shows us how miraculous the universe and our existence are : a global systemic 'reset' such as that of 2020 couldn't possibly come without deep adjustments and a slowing down before stepping forward... in that sense the lockdown period was a blessed pause 

the shift has nevertheless already happened - and there's no room for the old world's flawed structures and behaviours 
no matter how much the blindfolded and regressive reactionaries  
may want to pull push trick beat and enslave 
there's no stopping the new era 
it will sweep everything and everyone
this solar eclipse at 0°21 Cancer invites us 
to clear the remnant trans-generational outdated blueprints which may still inhibit us 
and allow room for our truest nature / authentic self to emerge 

during this intense powerful Ring of Fire
the gestation of our new world happens in a typical cancerian mode 
before and after this New Moon/Solar Eclipse, during the two Full Moon/Lunar Eclipses, that is 5.6 and 5.7 2020 
we release, shed and clear with sometimes pain and tears
so that like a birthing
we may set to the universe 
our soul's pure and true intentions 
to feel at home again on our planet and in our selves
with a strong sense of belonging, love and compassion

blessings

Eclipse and Solstice symbol for your consideration :

On a ship the sailors lower an old flag and raise a new one.
Key: A radical change of allegiance exteriorized in a symbolical act: a point of no return.

We have now reached a square to the beginning of the cyclic process. This is a moment of crisis, a sharp turning point. In the zodiacal cycle, at the summer solstice the northward motion of the sun (in "decimation") stops; the sun rises and sets as far north of exact east and west as it can during the year-cycle. Its motion is now reversed. Slowly the sunset points move southward on the western horizon, and the length of the day decreases. In the lunation cycle this is the First Quarter phase. 
On the "ship" which symbolizes the ego-consciousness floating, as it were, on the sea of the vast Unconscious, the individualized will makes a basic decision. The dominant Yang force allows the Yin force to begin its six-month long rise to power. The "collective" will gradually overcomes the "individual," and at the end the state will overpower the person. Now, however, the individual person enjoys his most glorious hour; he exults in his ability to make a "free decision"- i.e. to act as an individual who selects his life goal and his allegiance.
In a decisive act heavy with consequences, the symbolic college youth might realize that he should bring to an end his quest for the ideal companion and enter into matrimony. He assents to the possibility of progeny, of home responsibility. His consciousness accepts a process of fundamental REORIENTATION, implying the stabilization of his energies.






The eclipse starts at sunrise in Africa and ends at sunset over the Pacific Ocean:
annular eclipse first begins: 4:48 UTC on 21 June 2020
greatest or maximum eclipse: 6:40 UTC on 21 June 2020
annular eclipse finally ends: 8:32 UTC on 21 June 2020

  Well as a stepping out of the memorable trials of 2010, this last month has been quite challenging ! We recently had the total Lunar Eclipse at 29° Gemini on the Solstice, less than two degrees opposite the Galactic Center, reactivating matters that had come to light during the course of the past few years; it was followed on December 26-27 by the Sun aligning with Pluto at 5° Capricorn thus indicating that certain "secrets" or issues are revealed and made manifest in a rather dense form. As if it were not enough then on the 29th, hours before Mercury finally went direct in Sagittarius - to progressively clear our recent muddy thinking - Mars in Capricorn squared Saturn in Libra, asking us to abide our time while testing our courage, patience and ability to meet frustrations, obstacles and restrictions! 2011 started on its first day in a lighter mode with the Moon entering Sagittarius after she'd fully activated during the last hours of a difficult year, a p

“Amid the whirling forces, I stand confused. I know them not, for, during all my past, they swept me up and down the land wherein I moved, blinded and unaware. From place to place and point to point, they drove me up and down the land and nowhere was there rest.” Esoteric Astrology, Alice A. Bailey Azar in November-December corresponds to Āçiyādiya, "Month of the worship of fire", whence Kaman or Nimasp (the centaur) represents a hunting divinity symbolised by the bow and arrow. It was called the Light of the White Face , the Flowing Day , the Smiting Sun Face and its constellation was the Star of the Bow with which Rukbat was associated. It is also called Sagittarius, the ninth Sign of the Zodiac. Alpha Sagittarii, a star in the Sagittarius constellation, has the traditional names Alrami and Rukbat, derived from the Arabic rukbat al-rāmī = the knee of the archer. Rukbat means 'knee' in Arabic.  In the stan

  Full Moon 21 November 2010, 17:27:19GMT 7e15, 43n42 Symbol: A Peacock Parading On The Terrace Of An Old Castle according to Rudhyar, this symbol refers to "hereditary gifts that manifest on a personal level" - or from an occult point of view, it is about the coronation of individual efforts when these rest upon a spiritual legacy.. Children In Halloween Costumes Indulge In Various Pranks social rituals that periodically allow the release of rebellious immature energies and tensions By taking a slow look at the varied aspects of this Full Moon, its mixed messages urge us however towards an inspired and truthful grounding of our passionate self within Reality. No matter how ambivalent and slippery this one appears, we need to maintain our lucidity and exert sound judgement.

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

"Any cycle of existence must begin in something. Life emerges out of one kind of seed or another. In the cycle of yearly vegetation, the seed lies hidden in the ground during the winter; then, as the sun's rays gain strength and spring begins, the great event of germination occurs. As the seed is torn asunder by some inner power of eager response to the sun, the rootlet stretches itself downward into the soil and the little germ reaches up to the crust of the soil, which it breaks in a magnificent gesture of liberation from the darkness of the past."   Meditations on Saturn by Dane Rudhyar The Total Lunar Eclipse at 25° Sagittarius during 15 June 2011 Full Moon, happens with the Earth perfectly aligned between the Sun and Moon - so 'she' will pass at the very center thru the Earth' shadow .. and will turn copper for even longer. Reactivating the same degree as that of December 2008 and closer to the Galactic center, the
