beloved star

Go with the flow.
Seen in charts with lots of mutable energy or a Pisces / Neptune vibe.

My mind has been dwelling on soul contracts of late. . .high octane New Moon Solar Eclipse on Scorpio Neptuner is delivering 3rd house mail in spades.  I am inundated with weird Neptunian eclipse thinking – brimming with 11th house KNOWING . . .
yet not knowing . . . just going with the flow

Neptune in my chart touches nearly everything and it is square 8th house Leo Jupiter, the ruler of my Sagittarius 12th house.  I have a strong Sagittarius vibe, have dated primarily Sagittarians, I am not only hot to teach, I am also hot for teacher.

The ruler of the 12th house and its aspects will help explain soul contracts you have made for this life.

While I am at it – yes – there are 12th house secrets, vulnerabilities and cages.
 Also to be found is resilience, overflowing compassion and ingenious escapes.

+ You put fire on the 12th – and you got yourself a Jedi.

If you were born (Sun in 12th) between 5-7am, you are Hour of the Rabbit in Chinese astrology Rabbits hours are reflective, discreet, artistic and diplomatic.  Rabbits are refined and easygoing, yet often detached and solitary.

A nice way of saying space case with a tendency to avoid direct confrontation.

Let’s go deeper into Soul contracts:

What sign is on your 12th house ?
Look to the ruler of your 12th house sign. 
What sign / house is that ruler it in ?
What decan does it live on ?

Are you getting a fixed vibe on a mutable house ?  Cardinal on a mutable ?
Also, if you have a packed 12th house – what are the planetary energies living there ?
Where is your South Node (hint: always opposite the North)

This will help you unravel the past life that has lead you to the life you are living today, and the soul contracts you are living, breathing and fulfilling now.
:::::::::::::::::::::::::

Here are my deets as a guide to the above:
 Sagittarius on 12, Jupiter rules and lives in 8th house Leo on the decan of Mars (just looked that up today and you can lay a sure bet I find that very interesting).
 Jupiter lives in Leo (fixed) on the 8th (natural house of Scorpio, fixed) is conjunct Venus, Fortuna and squaring Neptune (YaY eclipse ! lol) in 11th (natural house of Aquarius, fixed) on the house of Scorpio (fixed).   South Node in Libra 10; you probably knew my name last life – this life – pseudonym, hermit Jedi chick living in BFE.

So sex, drugs and rock n roll are ahem core issues.   Fixed = deeply ingrained habits held over for several lifetimes.  Fixed vs. fixed, just as fun as it sounds like.  Mine is a test of self- will.  I also have a void of course Sun at 29 Virgo that is conjunct Uranus Pluto.  Sun conj Uranus Pluto is an aspect of ‘ya think ?!?‘ followed by life answering – HA ! ‘Think Again.’   It’s the perpetual ego hit, but Sag on 12 keeps on walking (12th rules feet, Sag rules thighs, running) forever optimistic and hopeful.  It helps having the 8th packed with benefics too.

Soul contracts in my life are with teachers / lovers who are elusive yet ever – present.
I am lucky enough to have secret protection (Sag on 12) when I need it.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart, secret protection – you KNOW who you are.
 When I quit drinking, let go of trying to escape / control others and turned my Sag Mars quintile Uranus into astrological writing via North Node in Aries 4, (3rd house Aries Saturn Rx trine Sag Mars) my life improved immediately when I turned my Plutonic power inward and learned how to control mySELF.

I hope you make your way out of you own labyrinth with help from my light to you when all other lights go out.

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

Wheel of life is tick tick tick ticking away like gears in a clock !

So much going on – it is essential to stay grounded – too much time in the brain pan leads to spinning wheels and frustration.  Finding myself counting my breaths, my steps and otherwise focusing on the planetary aspect zone.  I’ve been immersed in divinatory studies and tonight plan some down time for myself.
How are you doing eclipse peeps ?  

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

Chiron has my interest as it will be stationing direct at 4 degrees in trine to Saturn in Scorpio also at 4 degrees.  

Chiron was a centaur, wounded, who took it upon himself to learn herbal arts, healing and gathered much knowledge in his quest to heal himself – which he shared with his students.  He was a teacher, philosopher and helped many others overcome difficulties through acute understanding of his own pain, his own wound.  

Chiron stationing in tandem with Saturn a contact : trine : brings a healing of the past.
Past fears
Past trials
Past pains
Past suffering
::: be free of all of them:::
They have been studied while Chiron was in Rx motion – looking inward.
It is time to let them go.

Personal responsibility towards health will be strongly felt –
towards our personal vehicle

our collective Earthy vehicle
 and all Earthkind, humans as well as all creatures who share this world with us.

Walk the middle path.
BALANCE
ALL ONE

American Made Midas Maven

Margaret Dunning with her 1930 Packard 740 Roadster

WoW.
This lovely lady is amazing !

Margaret has been a gearhead since the age of 8 (when she first drove), she still drives her 82 year old car, she is 102, and she just won a scholarship to go back to school and finish her business degree.  Holy cow – I’ll have what she’s having !  Obviously, she’s got an Aquarian edge somewhere and some good Saturn happening.

She’s a Cancer with Moon in Aquarius.  Uranus in Capricorn with Saturn in Taurus, which I have to admit is what I went looking for, but instead was amazed by her business acumen and stunning money aspects*.  Cancers are known for business, though they are a bit more discreet than Capricorns (their opposite sign), they are on the same wavelength of gather, rinse, repeat.

Her Royal Flush / Midas touch is she is positively oozing Venus, so cool !
* Venus = $$

She is a conservative, cautious but extremely lucky gambler: Mars in Leo on the decan of Sun, square Saturn, but sextile Jupiter
Her Cancer Sun is on the decan of Moon, sextile Toro Saturn – excellent $$ instincts

Margaret has two planets ruling their signs:
Mercury in Gemini
Venus in Taurus*  conjunct North Node of Destiny (benefic)

Jupiter trines both of these planets (out of sign) from the other Venus-ruled house, Libra
Jupiter = BIGGIE SIZE ME in any aspect
Lucky Jupiter is her most highly aspected planet

Check this out: Margaret has 3 planets on the decan of Venus
Mercury
Saturn
Jupiter

Cha – ching  ! *

Factoid: Margaret served on the board of Community Federal Credit Union in Plymouth from 1962 to 1984, and was president of the board for 19 of those years.The assets of the Credit Union increased from $1 million to $40 million during those years.

So the surprise scholarship with free car care products for the gearhead who started driving on a Model T and has lovingly restored a :
– 1931 Ford Model A
– 2003 Cadillac DeVille
– 1906 Model N Ford
– 1930 convertible Cadillac DeVille

Uranus in Capricorn (business degree) on the decan of Mercury (octaves of thinking, learning, intuition) trine Toro Venus which trines Jupiter Libra (free money for going back to school).

Margaret is a real sweetheart, Venus ! * Jupiter ! Cancer Sun !  and has donated much time (see Saturn on Venus), volunteered for the Red Cross, has donated scads of money to her community, helping build a library, a historical museum, and she also runs a private grantmaking foundation.

She’s my new shero !
Cheers Margaret ~

Plutonic Alchemy

Arthur Hugot

Those of you with transiting Pluto ripping through an angular house (1,4,7,10) – RESPECT.
 
I’m a Capricorn rising with Pluto ripping up my no longer secret identity in One. 
PLUTO REVEALS.   

Pluto in One who the fuq AM I anyway  ?  is just as fun as it sounds like, but the really fun part is Pluto is also ripping up OUR identity via opposition with Seven.  Meaning me and you : never on the same turf for two consecutive minutes : the not – so – secret knock down drag out, we either are in peace talks or have each other by the throat.  Do we love or do we hate ?  Likely it is both – feels like both.

Thrillseekers note:
Pluto will deliver passionate desire right along with kickass rebirth.

Those of you with Pluto in Seven are feeling much the same as the Ones above, only your relationships with OTHERS are getting the major overhaul first and foremost and that means getting a grip on yourSELF as well.  Good luck with that – Pluto digs deep for the sludge in the swamp – what it dredges up is not for the hearts & rainbows crowd.
The scales of Justice and BALANCE are swinging wildly with Pluto in houses One or Seven.

Those of you with Pluto in Four and Ten – it’s your STeAmPunK coming OUT party !  What you once held private and oh – so – dear is now public fodder – Pluto is waving  your family flag for all to see.  Four gets primal pain and the whammy rebirth following  via home and private family matters undergoing metamorphosis.  I said steampunk because it is the POWER inherent in patching and piecing the plundered.  Positive mental & emotional alchemy made manifest on the physical – HOPE – the sword reforged.  REBIRTH.

Tens are undergoing much the same as the Fours only their career is kicking ass into high gear – take no prisoners.  Capricorn on Ten is fuq all ambitious, it is born and bred, they need to CLIMB and CONQUER.  Pluto ripping it up in career will shed light into the dark caverns of who has kept you from what you feel you rightly deserve.  Family or parents, most likely.  It will also shed light onto who or what you have USED to get where you are today, or conversely how others are using YOU.

One last thing… y’all out there feelin’ all cocky: ‘fuq yeah, I got a handle on this’ Pluto is in my Tenth or Fourth or whatever’ lol.  I got a newsflash for ya – Go back and re-read the whole thing – ’cause you are GETTING IT ALL via SQUARES or OPPOSITION to EVERY OTHER angle.

Ain’t that the fuqsticker  ?! . . . and I didn’t even mention Uranus.
See how nice I am ?

cheers to progress via Plutonic plunder

Turn the Tide

Rain of Feelings

We all carry within us our places of exile, our crimes, our ravages.
Our task is not to unleash them on the world; it is to transform them in ourselves and others.
Albert Camus

Weekend, blessed weekend.  sheesh – whadda week.  Seems like everywhere I turn someone is in a snit.  The emotional Neptunian tide is turning with a Solar Eclipse in Scorpio on the way – whoa.  Some peeps seriously need to chill.  
SoOo on with energy clearing via water, as promised.

::::::::::::::
Water cleansing 101

The ugly cry. 
Instant pent up hornmoanal release !  Emotional tears contain more protein-based hormones, and leucine enkephalin (a natural painkiller).  That’s right, your very own, in house, Doctor Feelgood, on call 24/8 !

Hydrate.  Drink water, lots of water – blessed by you – with your intent (prayer). 

Neptune rules Memory, Neptune rules the sea – think – Earth is 70 % water : your body is roughly the same percentage.  Sending your good vibrations and intent (prayer) to the water will change the molecular structure and increase the health benefits immediately in your liquid body. [ via Memory of Water. ]  If you like soda, consider sparkling water instead : fizz, without high fructose – add some fruit juice for natural sugar.

Bathe with sea or epsom salts.
Sea salts are absorbed quicker through the skin, they are alkaline and therefore help to lower the acidity of the body.  Salt helps the body produce serotonin, a mood-elevating chemical within the brain, and it also relieves muscle aches and cramps by removing accumulated lactic acid in the body.

Epsom salt will replenish the level of magnesium in the body and is very helpful in treating many skin conditions.  * Make a spritzer with essential oil / distilled water for crisis situations – will do wonders !

Sing in the shower.
Really let ‘er rip !  Unspoken rule at chez moon – shower goes with music goes with shower.  They are ALWAYS conjunct in this house.  Sound waves penetrate water faster – so choose wisely. 
Sound moves at a faster speed in water (1500 meters/sec) than in air (about 340 meters/sec).

Since we are talking Neptune and waves, all matter is made of waves.  
All forces are due to changes in wave velocity.

Vibrate higher, feel lighter.
Transcend.

deeper

WoW.
 I have been getting the best deep sleeps of my life this past week, I love it.

I am making up for all the time I lost sleep when Uranus was parked on my natal Saturn Rx in Aries trine Mars.  I was taking the blues every night – and still couldn’t sleep a wink, it was weird and robotic. 

So moving with the cycles, I am sleeping as much as I can when Neptuner is in flux.
The weird Uranian passage will return to my natal when Uranus stations direct on December 13. 

Everyone else having deep sleeps ..?   Curious.
Me, deep sleeps / sci-fi movie fixation – Neptuner most highly aspected in 11th.  I am feeling it, loving it …f i n a l l y… we return to the deep seas…

I’ll be back this evening with more about energy clearing via WATER.

Virgo Moon
void of course

6:27pm CST,USA

void ends when Moon enters Libra 3:35am
