Full Moon Eclipse in Sagittarius: TRANSLUCIDITY!

Image
'Translucidty!'   (seeing the bigger picture) The new word I just learned that totally relates to tonight's Full Moon Eclipse in Sagittarius: The Sabian symbol for 5 degrees Sagittarius is    "An old owl up in a tree.” which is interpreted as "a poised and wise approach to existence based on a clear perception of unconscious factors and their operation.” This is about rising above our pains and sorrow (our dramas) to gain a more expanded view. Understanding often comes once we step back and detach (not always easy). Owl medicine is about being an observer. And when we do step out of our habitual, unconscious  patterns ... we can see for miles  (and miles and miles) beyond the lies and stories our smaller mind tells us:   http://youtu.be/H4BBQMjbX3c    The Who:   'I Can See for Miles' This Full Moon Eclipse will help us gain that larger vision, while simultaneously  triggering the  release of our old limiting beliefs (HURRAY!) that may

Rock n Roll, Blossom and Grow!

 The leaves are finally out on the trees here and the first flowers are blooming. It’s always a late spring in these Northern climes where I live, and this year especially so. I am feeling cheered by the tulips blooming outside and there is a scent of blossoms in the air. Whew! So wonderful to appreciate the change of seasons and witness the cycles of time (even if I do get a little impatient at moments). I just listened to an inspiring talk that really reminded me of the current astrology (as well as the time of year)  The speaker was talking about flowers and how they are valued in cultures all over the world. We give them to someone to say I love you, like the beautiful tulips I got for Mothers Day, and we  also give them to say I’m sorry or to cheer people up when they are ill. We will also fill a hall with them at their funeral when they pass. People scatter rose petals and carry bouquets when they marry, and flowers are also used in ceremony or as a welcome (as

Todays Moon in friendly Gemini meets Jupiter to bring us all some much needed respite from the continuous intensity and change of our tumultuous times. It's a lighter note after two pretty powerful eclipses which are still reverberating out into the cosmic atmosphere. Venus is also now in Gemini making us more social  and chatty. Jupiter in Gemini expands our thinking and communication and with the added emotional input from the Moon its party time. Jupiter equals joy and expansion... so enJOY! Or time for a good ol' chat with yer mom. Happy Mothers Day to all you moms out there! I am a mom x three and also a grand mom x three and today I get to see my new granddaughter and hang out with her for a while. Being a mom has been the most blessed and humbling  journey. It's been the making of me. I was a mother at eighteen and I really did not have a clue. Hmmmmm .... still don't! Except I do know we all need love and acceptance and thats the best thing we can give

New Moon Eclipse in Taurus 'Whoa Nellie'

"By expressing the 'want' while also letting go of “wanting” everything becomes possible, all possibilities are open, one possibility leading to another, and another, and another... "        Canto Dindi Sun, Mars, Mercury and Moon all together in Taurus are amping up our needs and desires and increasing our drive to get them met.  Saturn opposite says 'whoa Nellie'... 'slow down and take your time. Examine your motives. Can you t rust in the universe and know that whatever happens, all will be well? ' Thursdays New Moon Eclipse pushes us to face these issues as it triggers the  release of the old so the new can manifest. (sound familiar? Notice we are having a lot of these in these powerful changing times?)  Despite survival fears that may lurk in the background, this is a positive eclipse full of promise and rich reward. Abundance and healing are in the air. Taurus is a rich earth mother. She wants to nourish us. Mars is desire and ag
