Full Moon Lunar Eclipse 8 degrees Gemini
“Vague and nebulous is the beginning of all things, but not their end.
Life and all that lives is conceived in the mist and NOT in the crystal.
And who knows but a crystal is mist in decay.”
These words spoken by The Prophet written by Khalil Gibran sums up this moment so well. The brittle decay of systems and structures in the midst of coming apart through the energy vibration of the Saturn/Jupiter/Pluto Capricorn conjunction as it is in its final stages. This precedes the shift in paradigms as Jupiter and Saturn move into the sign of Aquarius towards the last week in December.
But for now the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Gemini opens this Eclipse season with Mercury as an important player. As Mercury is the ruling planet of Gemini, we can sense its influence through the mystical planet Neptune in Pisces t-squaring the Gemini/Sagittarius nodal axis. The words of Gibran’s Prophet as he is leaving the island of Orphalese and tells them that, “life and all that lives is conceived in the mist not in the crystal“. This illustrates to me the feeling and perception tone of this Gemini Lunar Eclipse, that consciousness itself is seeking information and clarity through crystallized thought but finds a quantity of fog and mist in the process. To trust that the mist itself contains the seed of the new understanding, once it’s given the quality of time needed in which to unravel and reveal its transmission.
This Full Moon Gemini Lunar Eclipse on the 30th is Mercury ruled. The North Node in Gemini imbues its Mercurial energy as a T-square with Neptune. Neptune being 18 Degrees Pisces, is squaring the North Node 19 degrees Gemini and the South Node 19 degrees Sagittarius This can imbue our experiences with chaos and confusion perhaps, OR we can choose to breathe into the higher octave of Neptune which enables us to relax into our own inner being. The latter enabling us to become consciously aware of truth and reality as it presents itself.
The necessity to do so is illustrated in the words of Dr. Carl Jung in which he says, “When an inner situation IS NOT MADE CONSCIOUS, it happens outside of fate. That is to say, when an individual does not become conscious of his/her inner contradictions, the world perforce acts out the conflict.” In other words, as Jung has also said, “You can’t heal what you don’t feel”.
Neptune challenges us to become conscious of that which is unconscious, ( 12th House issues), or it gets thought of and mistakenly blamed as being at the merciless hand of fate. Take back your power always and breathe your awareness towards the experiences unfolding before you. Allow yourself to create your own fate and destiny. More about that as Jupiter and Saturn move into Aquarius by December 21st.
We as fellow beings and creatures are the resources of our time as we embody, acknowledge and claim our humanity. This moment marks a time when a phase in our evolution is drawing closed. Take heart and trust that a new door is opening. Albeit we must first revel in the process of the waning Moon which is the natural flow that follows the Full Moon in just a few hours.
