A Culmination Of Mist Into Crystal
November 30, 2020
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.

This moment through the signs;
Aries awaiting your orders as situations continue to unfold. Action is your MO, so this moment could be a bit stressful as you hold back in order to know strategically what would be the best way for you to move forward. Be patient. Allow this to be the moment to “mend the nets as fishermen do” when they are not able to go out to sea.
Taurus, enjoy this moment. You are encouraged to revel in meditation and finding bliss. This is the time to gather yourself for a renewed awareness and comprehension of what is of most value to you. All will unfold in due time.
Gemini, this is your moment. Take this time to clarify what is needed in your life that would ultimately support your growth. A time to learn as much as it is a time to shine. What with the Sun in Sagittarius shining it’s light upon you, enjoy this moment.
Cancer, needs to soothe and nurture as the friction of Aries and Eris in Aries continues to egg you on and work your nerves. Use this time to clarify what will be the cleverest move you can make that gives you the stability you need and desire.
Leo, loves the energy of Gemini along with the challenging configuration of Neptune thrown in. It fires up your creative juices to play, create and dance with the stars.
Virgo goes well with Gemini energy as you are both Mercury ruled. Virgo could be our logical informant of what the Neptune Pisces T-square is indicating. Neptune in Pisces is in opposition to Virgo so this should be a bit of a charged moment for Virgo folks.
Libra just groove to your love of the depth and beauty of the mystical as you seek balance within all the chaos and change.
Scorpio always open to mystical transformations even of the transcendent kind.
Sagittarius use this moment to assess what you have learned in your life thus far as you are being encouraged to step into the new and unfamiliar. Always an adventure for you.
Capricorn, make way for the new. Your discipline and practices help develop the new structures and systems needed as Aquarian energy emerges to set the color of change in motion.
Aquarius, breathe in deeply and exhale deeper still. Your time is coming to shine as a New Age is being heralded in. Much work ahead. A labor of love as the humanizing of humanity unfolds.
Pisces, last but never least as you plummet into the depths of understanding and awareness, the beauty of your being emerges. The practical application of your cosmic mysticism is finding its place in the pantheon of your life.
Happy Full Moon Lunar Eclipse to All! 🌕

Thank-you.
Belated, From My Heart And Soul
As the leaves continue to fall and as the days grow shorter still, we are given this comfort of time to sort out our lives. The axis of the Earth’s orbit helps us to strike a balance by the very nature of this Autumn Scorpio/Sagittarius season as we surrender to this time and open into a moment of introspection and preparation. The waxing Moon which began its cycle on November 15th, keeps turning forward as possibilities unfold.
There is within each and every one of us a creative impulse that desires to integrate towards a viable form of living that utilizes all that we have learned and all that we know. It’s a product of tangible insights and wisdom that resonates with reality. This past year has been so thick and rich with growth and opportunities to embrace our inner power that I know for myself it has been a bit overwhelming. So many discordant chords as crises galore continue to unfold. Certainly the old adage ” life happens as you are making other plans” carries with it much truth and reassurance on some level. It feels reassuring to allow oneself to trust and respect the process while respecting and granting yourself a way to meet your own needs.
Still and all this moment is a time to embrace one’s individual humanity as a felt sense of something really good and vibrantly alive is about to unfold. This is the resting place where we may affirm through our inner vision that we are living into some sort of an auspicious moment. The significance of this time is actually a breather space in which to consider what we attained through our journey to date that can be applied to our lives and circumstances as we continue to move forward now. There is also a way to understand what our attained knowledge and real needs are based on an always available intuitive felt sense which sparks from within. Through their pulsing vibrations, these felt sense glimmers rise up to our minds as thought forms which ultimately are beckoning us towards reaching our goals. The inner felt sense helps us to clarify new intentions which ultimately aims us towards luscious success and sweet accomplishment.
Even as the orbiting Moon and as the oceans rhythmic pulse are in a never ending cycle of expansion and contraction, as a result of the affect of the movements of the Earth’s orbit, geological inner shifts and the vibration of the transiting Planets and other objects has on it, so we are affected as well. It’s through the rocking and rolling of these energies and influences that we create our lives. It is the journey of our Soul and the experience of how our aliveness is being influenced by it all that serves to open the door within us to let us find a groove to an inner felt sense of knowledge. It is here now in this present moment where there is an awareness of the changes that are needed in order to create what we want.
Sometimes it is so that only when we are in the midst of the dark emptiness of contraction that then and only then do we see the light. Its one of the gifts that the transiting Capricorn stellium of Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto, painstakingly driving their sharp and tender teachings into the very fabric of our lives, that ultimately enables us to distill and process its action into the heart of our being. Its singular purpose is to clarify what we need to realize in order to evolve and grow.

Its singular purpose is to clarify what we need to realize in order to evolve and grow.
Jupiter and Saturn’s ingress from Capricorn’s hard earned structures and esteemed positions of authority towards the Aquarian qualities of benevolence, compassion, mercy and kindness becomes the new vibrational journey that leads to new patterns of behavior. New conversations. New outlooks. The benign energy shift into Aquarian energy that at long last gets us to rock’ n roll into the innovative updated paradigm revisions that many of us are yearning for.
Aquarius, being a Fixed Air sign comes to embark on a task of bearing new ideas and practices into our lives. It’s influence through the expansive fiery Planet Jupiter and the Earthy grounded discipline and practices of Saturn, it’s co-ruler, allows Aquarius to weave a spell of positive groundbreaking changes. Realignments granted and sustained once consummated and established support the humanitarian values of honor, respect and support for all life forms and life styles. This is further supported via Uranus, co-ruler of Aquarius which is now transiting in earthy Taurus. Peace and prosperity is the goal that comes out of the upheaval we are currently in the midst of.
All this to say, pay your attention forward always aware of the past and breathing into the gift of the present moment. And remember this too shall pass.
Stay tuned for my impressions of the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse occurring on November 30, 2020 at 8 degrees Gemini for more.

The Taurean Full Moon Of Halloween
10/31/20
8 degrees Taurus in opposition to Scorpio Sun
A culminating point of transformation and change. As Uranus in Taurus is doing its job of shaking things loose. Not the usual Taurean earthy sensuous seeking out of pleasure and desires fulfilled. More from a place of upheaval triggered by Uranus in Taurus.
Usually Taurean style promotes a practicum that prioritizes stability. However a bit stressful and not as much fun when growth, innovation and liberation are insisted upon by Uranus. Something I believe on some level we are all experiencing and becoming aware of in our daily lives as of late.
The Taurus Full Moon stimulates our ability to consistently endure and to keep on. That is a good thing. The emphasis with Taurus concerns value systems, Particularly pertaining to money and finance along with issues around ethics and integrity. The journey of Uranus, the planet of change and liberation transiting through Taurus is quite influential. While forming a conjunction with the Full Moon, it’s having an exquisite effect on our consciousness at this moment in time.
The Capricorn stellium of Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto forming a Trine by element. It’s allowing us to harmonize in the key of change. Inspiring us to let go of that which is no longer needed, sustainable or relevant. Uranus in Taurus holds the possibility to realize that the seed of the new is in the shell of the old.
The climaxing highly charged and stimulating Full Moon marks the beginning of a relaxed exhale as we move into the waning, darkening of this Moon. With it this Autumn season. We go deeper into the rich and fecund darkness. A moment to assess and take stock of what has been accomplished during the past two weeks. It’s the energy and brightness of the Full Moon where we can see and feel where to go from here.
Trending through the signs;
Aires- the tension and friction of unrest, indicating breaking free from beliefs that held you back. So much power and so much energy to be channeled into physical activity that allows you to let off steam. To think clearly and wisely so you may go where “angels fear to tread”
Taurus- with the Moon in your sign, this is the moment to reflect and intuitively open up to what is in your heart that you desire. A whole new way of dealing with finances in terms of your genuine newfound understanding of yourself
Gemini- Be observant and be aware. The Gemini/ Sagittarius Nodal axis is triggering the need to follow a path that is unfamiliar but is necessary for you to evolve and grow. Reflect on all you have experienced in your life to date. The challenges, lessons learned, things that come easy to you. Then look at the challenges currently put before you. Embrace and learn, which happens to be your favorite thing to do.
Cancer- The clever yet subtle wit and wisdom of this sensitive nurturing sign does well during the Scorpio season. You may find comfort swimming through the depths of the many challenges and opportunities put before you. There is a richness to be found in the innermost center of it all. Particularly as you continue to journey through the Jupiter, Pluto, Saturn stellium in Capricorn opposing your Sun. It all works itself out in the long run. It’s just been a very long run. Take heart, the times are a changing.
Leo- Such a creative time for you. And create you must or you will surely get a headache, if you don’t let it out. Take time to meditate, paying close attention to your breathing, your body and your mind. Allow yourself an hour of creative play time. Painting, art, dance and music. As a fixed sign in the midst of square formations please be aware that you are receiving your “cosmic” assignment that will enable you to be an active player in your life. Attuned to your audience and admirers, whom ever they may be.
Virgo- Harmonizing in the key of perfected service. Finding peace as your logic and stabilizing sensibilities are called upon to strike the balance between discord and serving with humility and elegance. The journey is vibrant, warm and resplendent in opportunities to serve with integrity. Service for the sake of service.
Libra- A striking moment of non stop stimulation. Your inspired understanding, love of justice, integrity and balance have been and will continue to be challenged. Necessary to take time to assess and take stock of where you are and how you feel about your life and your circumstances. What can you do for yourself that will support yourself and those around you? Libra, you hold the key.
Scorpio- Dark, sexy warmth of the hidden secrets and mysteries in a moment of revelation. All in the interest of transformation and rebirth. Pluto, your ruling planet ensconced in the Capricorn stellium will soon be left standing on its own towards the end of this year. Then you may find yourself taking a deep breath of relief. Stand strong. Owning the part of you that like the Phoenix, brilliantly rises up out of its own ashes.
Sagittarius- Positioned with utter enthusiasm at the mere adventure of it all. Your greatest resource. That along with your love of knowledge, understanding and differing cultures and philosophies is feasting on this outrageously rich and scary moment of time we are living in. Allow the journey to unfold as you would consciously choose to sail through it.
Capricorn- It’s still a hot and heavy moment for you. What with the Capricorn stellium in your sign. Offering you a front and center moment to assess what systems and situations in your life are relevant. What no longer serves you or makes sense in your life. This Full Moon in Taurus conjunct Uranus in Taurus offers you a moment to revolutionize and transform in a harmonious manner that which needs change. A sometimes painful but always beneficial prospect. Remember, the seed of the new is in the shell of the old.
Aquarius- What an eventful time in terms of stress, tension and challenges. Let us stand by all Aquarians, whose main endpoint is equality, dignity and justice for all. Sung in the key of innovation and avant-garde genius. Always the outsider in how far ahead into the future your highly charged mind works. The time to bring your refreshing humanitarian spin for the greater good is in its dawning phase. But none too soon. By mid to late December, Saturn and Jupiter transit into Aquarius. Your voice, ideas and eccentricities shall be joyfully welcome. To put a light of creative and necessary dignity to the matters at hand. “Looking forward to the dawn…”
Pisces- The mystical cosmic flow that Pisces brings to the equation is a necessary part of the journey we are on. For Pisces, your Neptunian flow is enriched by the powerful Cardinal moment of change and transformation we are in. At least for the next two weeks take comfort in the creative spark of stimulation the Scorpio season has to offer you. Pay attention to your dreams. Your dream life is where you are treated to the truth of what lies hidden in your Soul. Pisces need to learn to be specific about your dreams, wishes and desires. Otherwise you get lost in the fog. Stay connected to earthbound visceral reality in order to make your dreams come true. This is a favorable moment to learn and know how to do it.
These are some of my thoughts and impressions of each sign through this Full Moon in Taurus. I hope it is helpful.

LOVE And Other Potent Components
Nothing like a little bit of Libra Sun conjunct the Moon at 23 degrees to shed some light, love and beauty onto the matter.
The focus is on balance, harmony, justice and the beauty contained within and without. So to be conscious of maintaining those fleeting precious moments of peace of mind. While being mindful and taking pleasure in the luscious delight of your very own aliveness. A worthy and challenging subject even at this very moment in time when life is so outrageously out of balance.
This New Moon in Libra is the moment to focus on what brings you bliss, harmony and serenity. Libra and it’s ruling planet Venus encourages focus on the creation and the steady consistent work that is needed to maintain healthy partnerships.
As Libra follows Virgo on the Zodiac wheel I have found Libra to carry the flow of practice in the practical desire of stability geared towards productivity and accomplishment. Included in this equation is the ardor of a romantic, sweet connection as well. As beauty is a necessary and needed aspect of the Libra cycle.
The potent component of this moment, however is that Mars and Eris in Aries at 23 degrees is in direct opposition to the New Moon and Libra Sun conjunction. Thus creating a tension rife with conflict and passion. Triggering birthing like labor pains, metaphorically speaking, as we are birthing ourselves into a new cycle. No doubt to be continued and worked on in the coming Scorpio cycle.
Libra’s area of concern being about relationships, marriage, balance, beauty and stability begins with a healthy relationship to the self. The Mars opposition is forcing the matter forward, as it should. Specifically allowing to emerge a new healthy meaning of individuated healthy selves working cooperatively towards the establishment of dignified living conditions for the whole and many. This is down the line as the Capricorn stellium of Jupiter and Saturn transits into Aquarius. Saturn transits into Aquarius on December 17, 2020. Then Jupiter follows suit on December 20, 2020. Pluto will transit into Aquarius in 2024.
Be reassured that there is a method to the madness of this moment. As we are swimming in the hot soup of transformation via the unfolding multi tiered crises of this juncture. The Mars energy is serving to give rise to courageously heroic, well individuated instinctually driven and consciously aware selves. Surely it’s with the equilibrium that Libra with its predilection towards balance, peace and harmony provides. To encourage a successful transformation. This is where Mars in Aries comes in. It’s the yin/yang necessary for completion of the connection towards transformation.
It’s helpful to keep in mind that the New Moon in Libra which is in opposition to Mars in Aries, is forming a T-square to the Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto stellium in Capricorn. This is creating quite the vortex of energy. Allow yourself to experience the oomph brought on by the high frequency of the Cardinal energies of Capricorn, Aries and Libra. The tension of the Cardinal square at this New Moon in Libra continues to encourage us to grow. The crises are here to hasten the painful but necessary dismantling of brittle structures and destructive belief systems that are preparing the way for sustainably realistic, humanitarian, and relevant systems. To flourish, thrive and grow.
Growing pains are fierce which is why the Libra New Moon inspires us towards peace, balance and a beautiful well lived life.
If I were an ….
Aries, This is your moment. Your inherent love of new beginnings. So revel shamelessly in consciously connecting with one now. Focus more than ever on what you want to create and make it manifest going forward.
Taurus, allow yourself to “hang loose”, as it were, and learn to dance with the new and innovative. Particularly as Uranus is transiting through your sign. Remember to focus your awareness on simple pleasures that inspires your sensuous love of beauty and passion. All is well.
Gemini, what fun this powerful moment of transformation is having with you. That Capricorn stellium can really fire you up and stimulate your love of learning. This New Moon in Libra might invite some romance and the introduction of a new partner or some lovely loving in an existing relationship.
Cancer, this is the moment to clarify what you want and need. The Cardinal square is directly affecting your experience. Therefore allowing you to make it very clear. Use this moment to harness the energy to build the life you want to lead.
Leo loves Libra. Venus’s glow contained within the Cardinal energy of Libra helps to clarify your tasks at hand. Inspiring you to plans of action that move you forward. To shine in the radiant warmth of balance and beauty. Giving you the time and space to get going and get moving on whatever it is that needs to be done.
Virgo, being the parlor Libra moves from after having embraced the joys of logic and perfection. Those with Virgo Sun are experiencing a harmonious connection with the Capricorn stellium. Allowing for a depth of understanding within to ensue. This New Moon is a good time to acknowledge what’s working in your life now. Then using that as knowledge to clarify how to make other parts of your life work towards the perfection you seek. With understanding and compassion.
Libra, this is your starting point. Your Lunar return and Solar return. Manifestation of what you are seeking now is enhanced. Imagine the one thing your heart desires. Then focus your attention on having it. Congratulations! You are now ready to achieve it.
Scorpio, enjoy the excitement of the demolition of old structures in service of resurrecting a transformed version based on your deepest desires. This moment harmonizes with your detective side. Ensconced in figuring out the nitty gritty of it all.
Sagittarius, deeply enthusiastic about the adventures before you while at the same time noting it all. There is a book to be written and students to teach. This moment is feeding you well with new ideas, concepts and an expansive consciousness. Very interesting.
Capricorn, you mountain climbing little devil, you! As traditions and assumptions are being disbelieved. Hold on tight. As you practice discipline, integrity and respect for the bones that hold relevant structures together, your presence will always be needed. This moment you are the main player. As you have been for many years now. So slowly but surely play it well and with dignity.
Aquarius, the dawning is here upon you. Indicated by how dark, troubled and muddled the moment has become. “It’s always darkest before dawn.” Keep on, keepin’ on. Your time is surely coming when you must be the main player.
Pisces, ruled by Neptune. Being the higher octave of Venus, the ruling planet of Libra. Use this New Moon in Libra to celebrate the beautiful soothing nature of consciousness itself. Being mindful of receiving impressions of how to make materially manifest your deepest dreams.
These are my thoughts and impressions of each sign through this New Moon in Libra. I hope it is helpful.

Focusing On The Intention Of The Aries Full Moon
October 1st, 2020
9 degrees Aries
Shared and privately personal conflicts arising from the tensions and stresses of the moment we are living through. To be aware of how they have the potential to awaken and inspire visions and creative ideas coupled with a reverence for life and the rhythm of logic.
Allowing doors of our consciousness to open.
Beckoning us towards billowing breakthroughs.
Manifesting as insights.
That are being illuminated within the darkness.
It is only from the depths of blackness through which the glow of a teeny tiny pinprick of light becomes visible.
And so that is how this moment goes. To be aware that this Full Moon in Aries along with other challenging configurations continuing their ebb and flow are merely serving to open the door to our very own rebirth canal.
The rebirthing of an innovative shift in our understanding which is affecting how our perceptions of reality and evidenced based shared tangible factuality intertwine.
The Full Moon in Aries is all about the fearless flight to freedom. To challenge the territory “where even Angels fear to tread”.
At this very moment it is the transit of Mercury in Scorpio which is getting ready to go Rx as it forms an opposition to Uranus in Taurus. Thus adding to the restlessness and heightened energy all around us. Even in the midst of the chaos and confusion brought about through the as yet still quite festering Pandemic among other crises.
Mercury then forms a t-square to the Jupiter, Pluto, Saturn stellium in Capricorn. As Mars and Eris in Aries opposes Mercury.
This is a critical mass moment brightly lit by the Sun in Libra. Beaming its spotlight upon the Aries Moon. Triggering knowledge and perceptions about the burning conflicts making themselves so unmistakably visibly felt and known.
Crying out to be dealt with via dialogue and communication. Brought to you by the Gemini/Sagittarius Nodal Axis.
I believe that if we play it right, we can ride the power of this Cardinal Full Moon like a rocket fueled jet soaring into consciousness just as the Phoenix in flight does. With its vast wing expanse gliding towards its own freedom and rebirth.
Triumphantly out of its own consumed ashes.
Take heart, dear ones.
The best is yet to come.
Happy Full Moon 🌕
