  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

after a recent gemini eclipse and mercury being still retrograde in sagittarius : we are to expect bad weather conditions and delays re. travel plans .. despite having the current difficulties and hard times on our minds, as the sun is almost conjunct pluto in capricorn and mars is closing into a square to saturn .. the moon in leo however may uplift our spirits with its benevolent and generous influence and remind us that sharing with one another is most important and meaningful. all in all we may celebrate a warm and quiet christmas .. happy holidays and blessings to all!!

“ I wish I could show you when you are lonely or in darkness the astonishing light of your own being.” Hafez As everyone has been writing extensively about the significance of having a Total Lunar Eclipse occur just hours before the Solstice, I will not enter the dispute over the last occurence of such astrological event and will only add my two penny with a few considerations. This total Lunar Eclipse occurring at 29° Gemini while the Full Moon is closely aligned to the Nodes, is joined by Mercury retrograde and Pluto, and is squared Uranus .. Days prior to this Sagittarius Sun. Gemini Moon opposition, time speeded up with Mars joining the North Node before a triple meeting with Pluto and Mercury gone retrograde: many probably have experienced breakdowns and breakthroughs .. revealing in due course the 'karmic' dimensions of the current times. But feeling that time to take important decisions was inevitably approaching, we've probably pondered over all poss

I will light the match of smiles. My gloom veil will disappear. I shall behold my soul in the light of my smiles, hidden behind the accumulated darkness of ages. When I find myself, I shall race through all hearts with the torch of my soul-smiles. My heart will smile first, then my eyes and my face. Every body part will shine in the light of smiles. I will run amid the thickets of melancholy hearts and make a bonfire of all sorrows. I am the irresistible fire of smiles. I will fan myself with the breeze of God-joy and blaze my way through the darkness of all minds. My smiles will convey His smiles and whoever meets me will catch a whiff of my divine joy. I will carry fragrant purifying torches of smiles for all hearts. I will help weeping ones to smile, by smiling myself, even when it is difficult. In the cheer of all hearts I hear the echo of Thy bliss. In the friendship of all true hearts I discover Thy friendship. I rejoice as much in the prosperity of my brothers as

Moon in Sagittarius from a Persian Manuscript Today a free-spirited New Moon in Sagittarius augurs many opportunities this month with the promise of solid results thanx to its exact sextile to Saturn in Libra .. this sensation of general improvement will be accelerated when hours later Uranus in Pisces turns direct. The new moon is also quintile Chiron/Neptune in Aquarius, asking us to think outside the box! And once Mars enters Capricorn just two days later on the 7th (date chosen for a mass run on the banks), confirming that action with the goal of achievement may move mountains.. it will activate high tides again when joining the Moon's Nodes after Mercury's passage and present conjunction to Pluto: as if recent civil protests and the revelation of certain leaks were only opening the way for a real stage Event in December! In short, on December 11 when Mercury and Mars' transit trigger the T-Square, it will prefigure precisely the path for a powerful lunar ecl

  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. The Pleiades Star Cluster - Nasa This Moon.Sun opposition occurs at 29°-30° Taurus - and the last degree of a sign points at endings giving way for new beginnings - in conjunction
