Following the very recent Jupiter.Neptune conjunction and all my recent write ups, I can't help but comment on the green movement and the post-election events taking place in Iran to describe them as a seed for the "great revolution". By showing the way to our rising peacefully before any challenges that face us, the implications of such a movement and its effects on the global community are very positive for the future of our planet and are carriers of great Hope. In my humble opinion we are observing the seeds of some major historical changes: - the will: this new sense of 'Yes We Can' amongst people which started with the recent elections in U.S., is taking a new momentum with the iranian green movement and their 'We are all One'... much stronger than any past conflicts and divisive political postures amongst them, a green wave has travelled the planet in a new sense of unity/mutual support/cooperation between the diaspora and iranians a

These are very crucial times with several major planetary cycles overlapping in a short period: Pluto recently aligned with the Galactic Center, a series of unusual eclipses, Jupiter conj. Neptune followed next year by Jupiter conj. Uranus and Saturn opp. Uranus both square Pluto ... and put in motion by the formation of the grand cross in 2010. Due to their respective cycles, once every 13 years Jupiter the Lord of fortune, expansion and opportunities conjuncts Neptune the Lord of the oceans, the collective unconscious, dreams, inspiration from above and .. confusion. As Rudhyar pointed out, in terms of historical and cultural relevance, the Jupiter Neptune cycle is most significant and quite a reliable tool for a step by step description as it is the only planetary cycle that occurs in the successive signs of the zodiac. This conjunction occurs in the last degrees of Aquarius (at 27° on 27 May 2009 and at 24° in December 2009), their previous meeting in this sign being in 1843

This Full Moon on December 12th is in chatty fast moving light Gemini... but the chart shows a Grand Cross locking the energies of Sun, Mars, Saturn, Uranus and Moon. A Grand Cross is fundamentally a very stressful configuration, and because it involves four squares and two oppositions, this pattern affects our actions and energy drive as well as our capacity for balanced relationships : a Mutable Grand Cross can feel like pressure building up to easily disjointed and scattered energies. The image that comes to my mind is the breaking of glass : put intense consistent pressure on a window for instance, it will resist and resist and resist a bit more until it just shatters to smithereens ! Full Moon, Dec.12.08 16:37 GMT - Nice, FR The major challenge here arises from coordinating reactions. With a Mutable Grand Cross we should expect the unexpected and we shouldn't be surprised if this pattern hampers the mood in the usual end of the year activities or even
