Deep Sea Venus

Venus in Pisces people believe wholeheartedly in the power of love, they are the compassionate love sponges of the zodiac.  Venus is exalted in Pisces, her engine positively puuurrrs in the sign of divine love.  The higher octave of Venus (cultivated artist) is Neptune (inspired artist) which rules Pisces, making this Venus placement particularly good for creative artists of all kinds.

Pisces Venus is kind, loving, empathetic, charitable, forgiving and intuitive.  Daydreams, deep sleep states and hi qi imaginations 24/8 are the fantastic realms of this deep sea Venus.  She is highly sensitive, emotional and capable of picking up your vibe through the atmo between you.   Psychic feelers are strong in Pisces, and this Venus needs to be surrounded by beauty, love and ultimate harmony in order to function best.

This is a sentimental Venus, expressing love comes naturally to them so they tend to take up for the downtrodden and mistreated, having felt what suffering and sacrifice is themselves.   Pisces Venus loves to blur the boundaries and lines, they crave a partnership blending that goes deeper than most – inclusiveness means sharing lives on all cosmic dimensions.

Often the downfall of Pisces Venus is the lack of firm boundaries, and a reliance on addictions that help dull the pain of feeling everything around them.  They need to guard against hiding behind the smoke and mirrors of evasion, and often – flat out deceit.

Pisces is a slippery fish that is hard to catch, Venus (rules Libran scales of balance) in this sign may indicate an inability to settle with a partner due to indecision.   When using their off the scale imaginations in order to cultivate a more structured, realistic  – yet artistic – world they are formidable creators and the most forgiving, passionately inspired lovers.

nitty gritty trench wench

Tonight’s lovely MoOon rising at the end of my street, as I turned home.

Virgo Moon peeps are diligent hard-working folks.  Due to the influence of Mercury, they have a tendency to be high-strung; sorting, planning, organizing, cleaning and busy work tends to calm them.  They are led by a strong desire to serve others, they feel a responsibility towards health and welfare of others.  If you are sick and Virgo  hasn’t heard from you in a timely manner, they will be calling to check on you – ready to fetch groceries, meds, make soup, you name it.

They are practical, down to earth and ready to lend a hand if needed.  In fact, Virgo moon people need to feel needed, which is a direct result of being service driven.  (Virgo rules civil servants, nurses, nuns.)  They are excellent at anticipating the needs of others – Mercury sees the info exuded, sorts the facts, gets right to the nitty gritty working for the desired outcome.

They are quick-thinkers that want progress on the material plane, they are reality-driven, more so than emotionally driven – Moon in Virgo means feelings are analyzed – improved, then released.  They want to be appreciated for their mental faculties far over and above looks and status.

Worry, nitpicking, lack of self-confidence, not to mention a changeability that is part and parcel of Mercurial thinking can be downfalls for Virgo Moons.  They need to beware of overly critical thinking, over thinking – period.  If Virgo Moon can let go of eternal vigilance on details, relax and go with the flow. . . .seeing the big picture can be quite liberating.

Virgo Moons practice practical magick through housewitchery – cleaning the corners, fluffing the linens, organizing and scrubbing the environs – ending with a dash of wildflowers on the table afterwards.  Quietly ambitious, they accomplish much without fanfare – they work well with others or alone (mutable).  They are health conscious, conservative, quiet, reserved, humble, reliable. 

blessed be

Full moon mambo

Quickie read for Virgo Full Moon for insight and most benevolent outcome for all !

Full Moon is Ace of Vessels, Waters of Life
Balance, harmony, memory and emotions all pour forth with this earthy Full Moon.
Mental, spiritual, emotional and physical health is quiet work and peace found in daily routines – find the beauty in simplicity.

Jupiter as focal point of T-square is Intention: keeping faith in self and others – higher mind fine tuned to the highest qi.

Uranus is 8 of Cups: a turning away from a troubled situation and blazing new trails -sextiles Jupes – opportunity for brainstorming favorable futures is HIGH GEAR at the mo.  Note Uranus is quincunx full moon – indicating a change in attitude / altitude re: emotional matters.

Pluto is Queen of Cups: Pluto squares Uranus, trines Full Moon – emotional metamorphosis is imminent, in fact – most probably underway.  She has changed direction, adapted and improvised.

Goo gob of Pisces is Two of Stones:  Challenge and rivalry.  Pisces is oh so emo, figures – touchy and sensitive to the max, intuitive and sometimes defensive for only reasons they know. They are certainly not keen to share them…Pisces tends to hold many things close, subconscious dreamscapes rule here.
Private-cy and foggy, this indicates a need for a good shot of reality and above board tactics with self and others.  Know thyself.  Be ethical.

Saturn and North Node is the Tetrahedron, Energy:  Levels of energy are OFF THE SCALE
note this – there is energy to be had here, perhaps more than we all realize – USE it WISELY.
Three is Jupiter ruled – and is focal point of the T-Square: Moon opp a plethora of energy across the wheel – Venus (out of sign), Neptune, Sun, Chiron
All this in Square to Jupiter
HAVE FAITH – BE MINDFUL of YOUR THOUGHTS

Sky Candy

Hi ho Stargazers….
Here is some sky candy to check out

Interesting occultation of Spica this week…
Below is from Sky and Telescope
(see sidebar, or click)
Thursday, February 28 
Look for Spica very close to the waning gibbous Moon late this evening, as seen from North America. The Moon occults (hides) Spica for viewers from southeastern Mexico through central South America; map and timetables (date and times are in Universal Time).

Friday, March 1
Around 11 p.m. this evening (depending on where you live), the waning Scorpio Moon rises with Saturn glowing a few degrees to its left, as shown above. The pair remain close for the rest of the night.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

STARGAZING EVENTS THIS YEAR

March 10-24 Comet PANSTARRS (click)
First discovered in 2011, this comet should be coming back around for about 2 weeks. It will be visible low in the northwest sky after sunset.

April 25 Partial Lunar Eclipse (click)
5 degrees Scorpio
A very minor, partial lunar eclipse (not visible in North America) where only about 2 percent of the moon’s diameter will be inside the dark shadow of the Earth.

May 9 Annular Eclipse of the Sun (click)
19 Degrees Taurus
It will be visible in Northern Australia and parts of Papua New Guinea but mostly within the Pacific Ocean.

May 24 – 30 Dance of the planets
Mercury, Venus and Jupiter will seemingly dance between each other in the twilight sky just after sunset as they will change their positions from one evening to the next. Venus will be the brightest of all, six times brighter than Jupiter.

June 23 Supermoon
2 Degrees Capricorn

August 12 Perseids
upwards of 90 meteors per hour – good viewing, moon will have set

October 18 Penumbral Eclipse of the Moon (click)
25 Degrees Aries
 Visible mostly in Asia, Europe and Africa, at this time the 76% of the moon will be covered by the penumbral shadow of the Earth.

November 3 Hybrid Eclipse of the Sun (click)
11 Degrees Scorpio
A Hybrid Eclipse meaning, along its path, the eclipse will turn from Annular to Total and in this case most of the path will appear to be Total as there will be a slight ring of sunlight visible near the beginning of the track. This one will begin in the Atlantic (near the East Coast of the U.S.) and travel through Africa. The greatest eclipse (with 100 seconds of totality) will appear in Liberia, near the West Coast of Africa.

Mid November – December
Comet ISON (click)
The second comet this year, ISON, could potentially be visible in broad daylight as it reaches its closest point to the Sun. It will reach that point on November 28 and it is close enough to the Sun to be categorized as a ‘Sungrazer’.

December Venus Viewing
The brightest planet of them all will shine a few hours after sundown in the Southwestern sky and for about 1.5 hours approaching New Years Eve. Around December 5th, a crescent moon will pass above the planet and the next night Venus will be at its brightest until 2021.

December 13 – 14 Geminids
upwards of about 100 meteors per hour – the waxing Moon phase may obscure viewing

Virgo Moon Processor

I purposefully let the last post regarding health and sensitivity sit and stew awhile so your own thoughts could take flight.

Did you notice the sensitive clair planets flip, fluctuate or find balance..? 

Not everyone who has a hard Moon contact will experience clairsentience, yet it is a key to unlock the door to what is behind the veil in regards to health in the natal.

If you feel you are oversensitive via feelings, touch, or surroundings (Moon rules stomach, breasts – difficulties may arise here) start by looking at Moon aspects – seek balance in what you are feeling through that aspect.

How do others feel about you, how do you feel about yourself ?  Are you too open and picking up everyone else’s vibes, or too closed and uncommunicative ?  How is your relationship with your mother, women in general, the public ?  Do you allow yourself ‘down time’ to disengage via daydreams and solitude ?

Moon is subconscious sensitivity through feelings.

She is how we ultimately process the five senses, she dictates comfort levels.

Wanna break it down further…

Mercury contacts signify sight, hearing, thinking and sorting the sensations.

Venus contacts signify touch, smell, taste – like or dislike (favor indicates balance; also polarities and Uranus).
:::::::::::::::::::::::
The higher octaves take it UP a notch:

Higher octave of Mercury is
Uranus, or second sight, precognition, instincts of the wild – knowing, vibrations of the human collective thoughts – electrical in nature.

Higher octave of Venus is
Neptune,
or second touch, psychometry, feelers/sponges, vibrations of the human collective feelings – empathic in nature.
::::::::::::::::::::::::
If you are oversensitive in these areas; have a hard aspect with these planets above, find balance in expression – inwardly and outwardly before it manifests as a difficulty in your body on the physical plane.

Change what you can, accept what you cannot.
Bend rather than break.

CLAIR- ity

Love this image (if you know the artist, contact me, I will credit) because it reminded me of a moose dream I had many months ago. 

Antlers are psychic antenna – so are bones [feel it in your bones] hair and nails. 

The human body is not only bone, it is also 70% intuitive water, and highly electrical [knowing] in nature.

Our five senses translate our world through sensory perceptions using electrical devices which change one form of energy into electrical energy.  Neurons transmit an electrical impulse to the next neuron…thus sensory perceptions are relayed to & from, and translated via the brain. There are trillions of synapses (connections between neurons) in the brain, acting as the relay of information arriving as electrical pulses.  
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

I have been reading a book Lightworker by Sahvanna Arienta which is primo material for sensitive people who want to better understand the workings and pitfalls of being open.

In her book, Sahvanna explores specific sensitivities which triggered ideas around my own natal aspects.  My key is 11th house Neptune – a life full of tweaking the electromags – she squares 8th Venus/Jupes; opposes exalted Moon in Toro 4.
Noise, smells, foods, emo, atmo – practically anything can set me off, it’s ridiculous.

Sensitivities can manifest spiritual difficulties on the physical plane if we cannot find a way to spiritually work it though – the body will get on board and take one for the team.

Think about your natal aspects.
How do you work the energies to relieve stress ?
Find your sextiles, trines – it is easier energy
Find the trines to your difficult aspect by house – – even if the house is empty, you can still use the energy because its ruler lives somewhere in the natal.

Squares are where we do internal work, oppositions involve others, and conjunctions can be hard as well.

Saturn contact anything; fear, worry, restriction, work,
Uranus contact anything; surprises, eccentricity, changes

Pluto contact anything; metamorphosis through power and loss of it, rebirth
This is a start…you get the idea.

If you are having troubles working with a planetary energy, this may result…
Saturn contact anything; skin afflictions, bones, teeth, solidification
Uranus contact anything; nervous tension, pituitary,
eyes and sight
Pluto contact anything; muscular system, sexual organs, bowels
::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Now for some CLAIRity ::: (Clair means CLEAR)
HOW are you SENSITIVE ? 

Ponder the relationships below in comparison to your natal chart.  Does there need to be an energy release in order for a square or opposition to work better – thereby alleviating pain that is manifesting on the physical level ?

Or perhaps you will meditate, hone your skills to an even higher vibration..?
Planetary rulership follows.
:::::::::::::::::::::


Light sensitive, prefer the dark
= Clairvoyant (clear sight)
URANUS
Having trouble here..?.. think about WHAT YOU SEE vs. what you WANT TO SEE.
*same holds true for other senses below

Sensitive to noise and strange sounds
= Clairaudient (clear hearing)
MERCURY

Sensitive to textures, touch, pain (surrounds)
= Clairsentient (clear feeling)
MOON, NEPTUNE

Sensitive to smells, tastes
= Clairalient (clear smell)

MERCURY, VENUS

Sensitive to feeling, electrics
= Claircognizant (clear knowing)

URANUS

high tide

Gilbert Williams

Moon into Cancer
   Trine everything Pisces

Daydreams and night dreams morph
into ONE
Emo currents HIGH
Trine to Saturn strong – work feelings through
internally
water to water

float on the waves…be buoyant

one: put brain into gear
two: engage mouth

Aries and Libra feel the pressure to
change-UP

Capricorn is the bucking bronco
tossing yer behind
on the ground
 feelings hit paydirt – literally.
Reality bites.
Intensity flares as Moon moves to oppose Pluto.

Incoming message from house Aries
could go either way.
It will force change – that is certain.
