Unlocking the authenticity of our skills in collective life, and clarifying their reflection through others.
Adjustments, refinement, discernment and the theme of purification in our lives.
Intuitive growth and inspiration help us to crystallise conclusions pursuing accuracy at the culmination of a cycle of “harvest”. Sense and sensibility assist in reconciling the relationship between our capacity to discriminate and to have faith.
An especially potent full moon for humanity expressing an awakening, and a reformist attitude towards improvement of life, and the relationship between assistance, service and sacrifice. How does solving collective problems call for alternative approaches and who on a leadership level chooses to act with solidarity fostering earthly and common good.
The beginning of the lunar cycle on February 4, in the sign of Aquarius has highlighted new intentions in relation to our aspirations and our relationship with collective contribution. The climax of the full moon cycle on Virgo / Pisces axis gives us the opportunity to work and shape the way we provide in our lives and to carry out a consolidation through reforms aiming at a more essential but also healthy relationship with ourselves. This axis has to do with healing, perfecting and consciousness that is triggered by the practical application of what we think, discern and finally believe in, shaping the system of our ideals and perceptions. It is through the usefulness of things that we become conscious of our beliefs and ideals. Issues that concern our work, being of service, and how we attend, care and provide for, are coming to light with this Full Moon. We need to reconcile them with the notion of sacrifice, empathy, and idealism. Virgo expresses the improvement and usefulness of things, and the Moon in Virgo intuits, responds and collects with sensibility and accuracy stimuli and messages, analyzing and promoting a distillation process.A symbiosis of potential to resolve problems with a meticulous focus on perfecting, scrutinising and becoming sensitive to nuances. The luminaries make harmonious applying aspects with Mars at 3 degrees Taurus (the highest exaltation of the Moon) and we are given the opportunity to promote our desires, energy and talents and implement them with some material, practical or physical benefit. We can gain clarity on things we have assimilated, either material or spiritual, and discern how they may help or prove useful to others. We may even explain the relationship between provision and contribution in a new territory with a higher purity of expression. We observe that all three Full Moons from January to March 2019 are occurring at zero degrees of the Leo / Aquarius, Virgo / Pisces, Libra / Aries axes. We are dealing with a fresh energy that states a new and very pure form of expression, a new field of activity that calls for balancing acts, decisions, and reconciliations and perhaps more practice. Anything new springs from the reflection of a creative /authentic oriented source and its relation to the collective sphere (January Lunar eclipse in Leo). In this current Full Moon, we begin to clarify how we become functional and useful, exploring the flow of our inspiration, perception and ideals in a practical way.An appraisal of our harvest from something we have expressed begins to show prime results, or we perceive problems that seek clarification through practical procedures.Continue reading →
Are you ready to utilise your warrior archetype in service to the group or are you seeking a way out? Take all your capacity for discipline, responsibility, integrity, and past experience and fertilise a sense of connectedness that has a nurturing and comforting effect by just being who you are. Without knowing it, you may just have found your tribe. This may have stemmed from a need to shake or overthrow an existing order. A two year Mars-Uranus cycle in the pioneering sign of Aries is drawing to a close on February 14. Something urges you to reach the limits of your individual creative self. A time of critical impact, surprises and revolutionary acts.
This may have a more personal effect on you, if you have planets, angular houses cusps or points at 26-29 Aries, Capricorn, Cancer, Libra.
Change of attitude towards self and collective contribution.
A step in a new field of activity and personal expression.
Expressing creativity and talents
Love, creations and emotional stimulation
Love – Friendship / Giving and receiving love
January is definitely an active month with two Eclipses that sets the stage for important beginnings for the next four months with major developments unfolding during the whole of 2019. A Lunar Eclipse is a highly charged Full Moon that either helps us to “end” with something or triggers a significant transition. This particular one, signifies a first step to externalise and stabilise something that concerns us, and stems from our “core”. It could be read as an evolutionary step in a new direction, the basic intention to consolidate a situation, to give a particular goal, or project a formal or public attribute. It also shows us a more complete picture of a previous situation that originates either at the beginning of the lunar month (January 6,2019) or has an evolutionary message that can be traced in the previous eclipse of this Saros cycle which occurred on January 9, 2001 (Saros 134).
Themes of the Full Moon:
We are attuned personally and collectively, to self-expression, passion, loyalty, pleasure, and issues which touch our core being, or “affairs of the heart”. Receiving validity and attention is a theme that the Leo / Aquarius axis highlights, which reflects the very relationship of an individual with love, talent and creation, and the way it engages or integrates within a wider collective experience. The need to be out there, is reflecting the Sun’s light in the sign of Aquarius that symbolizes the origin of this need, and primarily has to do with the intellect and commitment to collective ideals. The Sun in a sign with a social aptness, promises a phase of social engagement that has a kind of formality or structure (Saturn -the traditional ruler of Aquarius), or a liberating effect (Uranus the modern ruler of Aquarius). It is like entering a public stage for a purpose. Expressing our “heroic”, self-expressive, and creative side are part of the agenda, plus issues we believe in, hope for, and involve those friends, groups of people, social context, or like-minded affiliations that confirm “contribution”.
In a Lunar eclipse, the Earth is between the Sun and the Moon, and it obscures the visibility of the Moon from our vintage point. Astronomy speaks both literally and metaphorically: The symbolic interpretation is that events (on the terrestrial field) become prominent and engage with the energies of the Luminaries that “intent” to exchange “data.”. Earthly concerns, activities, or attachments somehow disrupt or manifest into something through charging and tension. We witness earth’s reflection/shadow on the Moon. We are given an impetus to accelerate processes, gain consciousness of a particular matter or change our response and attitude in a certain area of life.
The Moon in Leo says I need to be happy, to create, to live, to fall in love, to be excited, to play, to assume a role, and I have difficulty in responding to what I do not like. It also dramatizes, opens the heart and strengthens emotional generosity, and heroism. It is a touchy Moon with a high sense of pride. So all those things describe our collective vibration. We are going to respond more intensely to anything that affects our pride and dignity, anything that we feel passionate about, feels expressive and exciting. In the element of fire and the fixed modality, the Moon responds with warmth and loyalty towards life. The “shadow” acts as a charging mechanism or as a means to “remove” the elements that prevent this need from being fulfilled. The first degrees of signs signify a new activity, a new way of expression activated by the above themes, which is mobilized through Sun, and in turn objectified by Saturn and Uranus (rulers of Aquarius). We develop a new attitude towards some existing structure.Continue reading →
Reviews – The wisdom of time – Our Relationship with the past – What we keep and what we leave behind
The essential supports of life
The need for autonomy and the search for a new direction
The New Moon / Partial Solar Eclipse in Capricorn sets new intentions in alignment with the notions of, integrity, responsibility, limits, maturity, work, power and authority. Urges us to strengthen ourselves and take initiatives. The past is a strong theme, and we may observe ourselves reflecting on the past, pondering on experiences or people who have had an impact on our lives. There is a parallel theme of assertion, call for initiative and action, that would energise a particular field of life. This is a South Node Eclipse and asks us to eliminate negative patterns, obsessions, feelings of inadequacy, rejection and release things from the past. We become more conscious of the need to bring closure and gain more wisdom. We may reflect on ties that we share a history with through the years, that have either passed away or we have grown apart, and review our connection with them in the present. We may get in touch with some people we haven’t seen in a long time and illuminate facets of ourselves in a different light. Either way this is a cycle that has to do with our engagement in a social context in some way, and perhaps gaining more clarity and wisdom regarding our position in the world. It is an opportunity for a reality check at self-negating patterns, guilt, fears that burden, to reject things in order to build, clarify or implement plans, to find the right relationship between realism and expectation, between commitment and freedom. A time to take responsibility for our lives and choices. This is a cycle that asks us to make a new beginning of a structural content, that instils seriousness, sense of responsibility and the need to do the right thing, change the rules regarding our commitments, our professional obligations and goals, but also the way in which we organize our lives. We may be more aware that limitation, and discipline helps us to focus on the essence of things. We will be concerned with resources and co-dependent commitments and how they support us. The Cancer/Capricorn eclipses until mid 2020 will eventually push towards a radical re-structuring, and transformation of all essential support systems and also affect our emotional attachments, levels of security and living conditions. We may feel that our relationship with time begins to become more accurate and meaningful, but also to gradually exert more pressure that is intensified so that we become more effective, do the right thing, or change attitudes. The need to develop our relationships and goals is pushing us towards clarifying our emotional or tribal affinity with others. There are people in our lives that connect us with the past, with certain goals or professional endeavours, now we may become aware that this is not enough, so we either attempt to strengthen our position, or say goodbye. So, how do we connect with our past to define our relationship with our perception of reality with more clarity, maturity and wisdom? How do we define this reality? Where do we place ourselves in this reality? Surely this cycle has nothing to do with concessions and compromises, it touches critical issues. It helps us to see what we keep and what we leave behind. We take a step forward by demanding a better relationship with ourselves that will lead to a better relationship with others and will illuminate our creative existence in the environments we operate in.Continue reading →
Happy solstice! Sun’s Ingress into Capricorn, first day of winter. Enjoy the longest night of the year in the Northern hemisphere, by pausing from the excess of daylight activity. An opportunity to see what shines bright in the “dark” and focus on what is essentially supporting us. What structures the reality of our lives. This is a time of the year when time itself and how we invest it can become our central focal point, and the theme of responsibility, integrity, accountability and “doing the right thing” is already emphasised, since Saturn entered Capricorn in December 2017. Saturn is the master “builder”. There are two more years ahead to act and reflect on this theme. How far have we come, what are our limitations, what are we working on on an inner and outer level. Now that Sun enters Capricorn is the right time to check whether our heart is in line with our reality.
To remember: not to swallow our inner child in the process
Χειμερινό Ηλιοστάσιο, είσοδος του Ήλιου στον Αιγόκερω, ευκαιρία να χαρούμε την μεγαλύτερη νύχτα χρόνου, στο Βόρειο Ημισφαίριο. Αυτό που “λάμπει” το βλέπουμε στο σκοτάδι. Η αρχή του Χειμώνα. Ας κάνουμε μια παύση από τα περιττά. Είναι η στιγμή να αφιερώσουμε χρόνο στους στόχους μας, στο που θέλουμε να επενδύσουμε τον χρόνο μας, που θέλουμε να δεσμευθούμε. Είναι στιγμή να εστιάσουμε την ενέργειά μας στα ουσιαστικά. Όσα στηρίζουν την πραγματικότητα της ζωής μας. Όσα θέλουμε να υλοποιήσουμε και να επιτύχουμε. Αυτή η θεματική της ανάληψης ευθύνης, της ακεραιότητας, και του “να κάνω το σωστό” είναι κεντρική από την στιγμή που ο Κρόνος μπήκε στον Αιγόκερω, τον Δεκέμβριο του 2017. Ο πρωτομάστορας. Έχουμε αλλά δύο χρόνια μπροστά μας που θα μας απασχολήσει αυτή η θεματική. Τι απόσταση έχουμε διανύσει, ποιοι είναι οι περιορισμοί και οι αναστολές μας, πάνω σε τι δουλεύουμε σε εσωτερικό και εξωτερικό επίπεδο.Τώρα που ο Ήλιος κάνει την είσοδο του στον Αιγόκερω, είναι η στιγμή για να επεξεργαστούμε αν η καρδιά μας είναι ευθυγραμμισμένη με την πραγματικότητά μας. Τι βλέπουμε; Είναι σημαντικό να θυμόμαστε πως δεν χρειάζεται να “καταπιούμε” το εσωτερικό μας παιδί καθώς εργαζόμαστε στους στόχους, στις δημιουργίες και ανταποκρινόμαστε στις απαιτήσεις της πραγματικότητας μας.

Chasing time, focusing on the broader meaning and perception of things.
The cosmic moment to tell truths, open our hearts and activate our dreams and ideals.
New horizons, experiences and knowledge, after a crisis. Dream, truth or illusion?
The New Moon, at 15 degrees Sagittarius 07 ‘, activates the need to aim higher, to feel free, and gain an overview of things. Our sense of faith arises from within. We may be inclined to explore another view or approach to life. We set a new intention, with enthusiasm, optimism, adventurous and expansive spirit. What motivates us: faith, a vision, justice, truth, and the lack of tolerance to limitations. Sagittarius is gifted with the ability have a broader vision and illuminates it’s passions with a generosity that is contagious. In this cycle we say “yes” to the unfamiliar, as self-will is fuelled by an inexhaustible desire to explore life. In this cycle of the Moon we engage with “the foreign”, and generate momentum to get out of our comfort zone, both in the material and spiritual side of life. The desire to travel, to escape, to feel good, to connect with people, to overcome things is zealous, fervent, uncontrollable, sweeping, contagious and exploratory. And that has tremendous power to expand. If you want to convey something that you believe in, you envision, you know, you feel is important, this the lunar cycle to externalise it. If you seek support in your endeavours, it is the month to transcend boundaries, expand your dreams and ideas, and meet with others who can sponsor or help you. The dimensions that any (collective or personal) endeavour, action, mission or movement can take is grand, and the challenge would depend on the context and the quality of the vibration, its ethos and intention. We are on a threshold before winter (Capricorn) in the Northern hemisphere, and the Sun in Sagittarius centres spirit and will, on turning inwards, seek inner truth and take prepare for a new season, while the Moon in Sagittarius aligns collective mood by disseminating the vibration during the cycle, towards improvement and a better future within a societal context.
The intention to clarify truths and the overall picture of things, illuminates communication but also brings new information to light.What we say and how we explain it. Connecting the dots.
The Full Moon in Gemini / Sagittarius axis highlights issues of communication and beliefs. It is the axis of perception and thus activates the processes of rationalization and comprehension. We can expect a period, of increased mental activity, mobility, that requires multi-tasking and handling information.Flexibility, response to stimuli, and communication, dominate and through the Full Moon opposition, attempt to clarify issues that may bring about a change of orientation in our understanding of things. Jupiter is conjunct the Sun and in opposition with the Moon, and this relationship speaks of a need to find middle ground, as we communicate, receive information and illuminate truths. The restoration of ethics, justice, ideology and values in respect to information received are dominant issues in the collective and private spheres of life. Improving our relations, seeking connections, meeting or corresponding with others in respect to what we wish to support, expand, but also broaden the scope of our experiences are highlighted too. Jupiter expands what it touches, has to do with the big questions, and therefore inflates our will, our ego (Sun), our talents, promotes our goals, choices and what matters to us. Most importantly it expands our spiritual awareness. We want to understand, we want to explain, gain knowledge and as Jupiter in Sagittarius represents that optimism and exuberance that can cross boundaries,the sense of being on a mission, a quest for truth or adventure, may take over our heart and soul. Are we ready for it? The early degrees of the signs signify something that is at an early stage of evolution, needs adaptation (mutable) and requires more practice. Jupiter is combust, and this may indicate that we are not yet ready to reveal and fully express our truths and visions, or they may not be so well understood by others. Nevertheless, the need to engage and exchange, as well as the need to promise and see growth are strong. The Moon in Gemini is illuminated by this intention and either brings others who are interested and curious along or it helps to respond in a communicative way, and establish connections by processing data that will feed into the larger view. Travel, commerce,media, publishing, learning, legal issues, visibility, knowledge, generosity and a risk-taking attitude for ventures, will energise our responses and daily life.
Is the rumour that is circulating true? What is the most accurate piece of information? How do we get to the heart of the matter? By communicating, we may also learn things that were not exactly the way we thought or perceived to be true? It may become a necessity for us to explain and communicate our views in a way that will reveal more aspects of ourselves. This may have to be repeated more than once. The important thing is to try to connect the dots, in respect to previous information that is elusive, pending or delayed.
Mars in Pisces is squaring the Luminaries and thus forms a mutable T-square. This pattern gives the necessary tension to act and take initiatives,or make a stance. Mars as the apex planet claims and strengthens the desire to put our mark, take a leap forward in our understanding, or fight for justice, and our beliefs. We may need to break some truths. This will not come easy, but indicates new beginnings in the way we express our positions and act on issues that are close to heart. Disputes and irritation, may be triggered too. Pisces sacrificial and idealistic nature expressed through Mars can either manifest like a stepping in to distract oppositions, or even cross boundaries in order to find solutions and act to support important issues.There is empathy in this position. Here we need to be careful on what we promise we can do, in overextending ourselves, and believing or reinforcing actions by taking unnecessary risks. How much we say, what we say and how we say it will ultimately determine the results of the two following weeks that have a purpose to bring closure and make adaptations on the themes that began with the New Moon in Scorpio. This cycle particularly emphasized the way we focus on things, but also how we manage issues of sharing, intimacy and resources in our relationships with others. Generally, it is a planetary picture that demands adaptations and flexibility, that may be hard or challenging and promotes the search for opportunity and solutions. With Jupiter in his domicile and Mars in a square aspect to the Full Moon, there are also disagreements on values and information management, handling family disputes or dealing with legal matters. The Sun is in triplicity, and this combined with Jupiter in its domicile is a factor of luck and good timing in decision making, while the square with Mars in Pisces can show that this may come with difficulties and challenges, to do with energy investment, or disputes in terms of evaluation, desires, ideals and beliefs (Pisces is the exaltation of Venus and a Jupiter ruled sign). It is important to believe in what we do, and this Full Moon helps us clarify more.
Mercury the ruler of Gemini is in Sagittarius and Retrograde, so it is a time when we review issues, transactions and discussions, reconsider data,but also seek better ways to manage and integrate them into our decisions. Delays and reversals or the need to re-think is prominent,as well as we don’t continuously keep expanding our view, with every new piece of information, every stimuli. Mind travels are the order of the day, or we may literally re-plan a vision, re-adjust an understanding of a situation or re-organise a trip. Venus,Saturn and Jupiter are in their domicile signs so relationships, agreements, values (and finances), seek order, their correct dimension, ethos and truth, and that is what will be critical for their longevity and sustainability. The responsibility and commitment in our exchanges have to clarify the accuracy of data. It is important to know or understand what we are claiming, and choose our battles wisely. The Full Moon illuminates how we will communicate things, but also reveals things we might not know. Venus in Libra is squaring the Nodal axis, and this is an indication that the sense of fairness in how we value things is a strong theme, while at the same time it is precisely this that can distance us from some important ties, create dilemmas or bring awareness of the distance that separates us from people we may be associated with our whole lives (Nodes in Capricorn / Cancer). The consciousness of our social identity, as well as the way we asses things within this context, is strongly activated, and it reveals multiple dimensions of opinions as well as a need to redefine ourselves in relation to our collective or social engagement and relations. Venus in Libra is in opposition to Uranus in Aries further emphasises the need for renewal in relationships, the expression of a freedom oriented partnership and notion of love, an awakening within partnerships, and the need to change our approach or find new ways to relate. We can expect some reversals or instability in respect to agreements, or the forming of new and exciting ones.
The last aspect the Moon makes before it enters the sign of Cancer is a sextile with Uranus in Aries, an aspect of opportunity (maybe a last minute one as Uranus is at 29 Aries) to change things or do something different.
Generally, with this Full Moon, things will develop quickly (Moon is fast). Trade and connections with people we know, are particularly favoured, as well as anything that relates to the written or spoken word; the communication dimension of our goals. This will resonate better with things that have already started or belong to the past.
Information may come from all directions, and management may become challenging as it requires tolerance and adjustments. As Mercury turns direct on December 6, our transactions, negotiations and plans will begin to expand and move forward with more clarity perhaps. This Mercury Rx period was challenging through the square with Neptune in Pisces. Messages may have been unclear, delusional or deceitful and rather paranoid depending on the source. There may have been toxicity and a certain level of paranoia involved in our communications and thoughts or just a mere need to shift and redefine our understanding by non-conclusiveness and withdrawal. Mistakes, misunderstandings, ambiguities and misconceptions that can alter conclusions or create impressions, plus lack of clarity on information that were activated during this cycle (November 8-23) will be re-activated again (on December 22-26) during the next lunar cycle. So, it may help to keep this in mind and align with the cosmic message around that time, by refraining from multi-tasking, trying to figure practical things out, engage in daydreaming, spiritual interests, or doing something creative and inspiring.
The need to find support or receive benefits can lead to hasty deals, promises and transactions, whose apparent validity will need time to finalize and perhaps take a whole new direction. Energy dispersion is possible and this can also bring fatigue and stress. We need to discern the usefulness and practicality of things (Virgo opposite the mutable T-Square).Mars also applies to a sextile with Saturn and this brings fertile opportunities to finalize actions, as well as be effective and cautious in our application of energy. This is actually the only aspect that seems to somehow ground or restrict the mutable emphasis.
The Sun in Sagittarius is about the revitalisation process of turning inward for spiritual purpose and expanding view though travel, knowledge,gaining perspective and freedom, the exploration of nature and the world. It is a placement that belongs in the social sphere. The Moon in Gemini illuminates curiosity and response to new stimuli and information gathering, from a more personal or familiar sphere. Every piece of information tends to magnify the overview and this is what marks the intensity of the culmination of this Full Moon. The need to bring things to conclusion. The need to balance data with truths, is the challenge that will be judged by the capacity to step out or step in and change the course of things. The need to find another direction, to open up a new way of understanding may demand we change our attitude towards the way we act and promote our goals. Jupiter does promise support in our actions.
The above themes call for alertness, emphasis on honesty and clarity in our communications, and will be active in the next lunar cycle too that begins on December 7. The autonomy and expansion we seek comes from our inner faith and truth, and it is a cosmic moment when we change our orientation and perceive the truth of intentions and propositions that are on offer.
The Full Moon has a more personal feel for you:
If you are a Gemini Sun born May 22-26, a Sagittarius Sun born November 23-27, a Virgo Sun born August 24-28, a Pisces Sun born February 19-23, or if you have Ascendant or angular house cusps and personal planets at 00-04 degrees of mutable signs, and 28-29 of fixed and cardinal signs. The themes of the full moon are processed until December 6th.
I hope we can all enjoy a magnificent full moon tonight! Happy
Solar Return for all Sagittarius Sun people!
Completion and development of significant changes. Our responsibilities in relationships.
The New Moon in Scorpio activates a new intention in relation to shared resources. Reinforcement of continuity is a theme while a process of death and renewal is taking place. This theme through the Scorpio filter may include any co-dependent relationship, proximity issues, in personal or professional relationships, and anything engaging with joined efforts. Through this New Moon cycle we come into contact mainly with our psyche in managing any subject and we become more conscious of the need to focus more deeply on what matters. The Sun in Scorpio illuminates our coordination with a process of radical transformation that has to do with a cycle of completion, while showing us how we can see the continuity of life through the process of elimination, rejection, purification, and reconstitution. The passage of the Sun through Scorpio correlates to the cycle in nature that has to do with the process of survival of the most essential and enduring elements that will become a seed. Death and regeneration are part of a natural cycle. It is not a moment to focus on attachment and control, but on what is of essence and can be regenerated to substantiate a stronger continuity. This calls for truth and sincerity, but also for the need to see the great picture and to free ourselves from attachments and obsessions that do not serve this process. This is not necessarily a painless process, it can be critical, it requires effort and stamina, and it involves trust and letting go. Some things flow with ease and are facilitated through the support and help of others, and some things get an urgent, and unpredictable dimension that is not necessarily negative.
Shared resources, financial projects, contracts, legal issues, tax, insurance, debts or inheritance. As well as intimacy, sexuality, passion, toxic habits are issues and themes that go with the territory.
All three water signs, become carriers and agents that engage with the totality of our existence. They are synthesisers of experience. They are receptive, endoscopic and synergistic. Scorpio in particular archetypically negotiates the achievement of a more fundamental understanding of the human psyche that seeks to deeply penetrate, to confront and unfold, strip down any shadow matter to get to the very core of an issue. It can thrive with research and science as well as anything that uncovers truths. Thus, to experience the grandiose dimension of the intensity of emotion, through conquering truths, achieving ultimate understanding, through the continuous renewing cycle of death and re-birth.This is a purely creative and therapeutic process. The New Moon helps us in some area of life to really strengthen through what we intent to share. The middle degrees of any sign (15 degrees) represent the area that is the most stable expression of the sign, while also heralding that any changes activated during this cycle will have a fixed nature and will be irreversible. The feeling of great intensity of an energy that is demanding to be released to give shape to something that lasts, is emphasised. All this has to do with issues that we already know and seek to develop or important issues of the past that will come to rise with the intention for closure and further integration.

At the Bendings – An evolutionary crossroad that confronts us with challenges, and unpredictable changes. The need for progress, innovation and renewal leads to autonomy, breaks but also unexpected or exciting encounters with others. The new can bring luck, surprising revelations, dilemmas and awareness in the field of our values, love and ties to others.
The Full Moon in the Taurus / Scorpio axis and the 01 degree of the signs is quite extarordinary. It is engaging with Uranus, the planet of sudden change, progress and awakening, Venus’s retrograde motion in Scorpio as it is approaching the inferior conjunction, while activating the midpoint between eclipses, (Sun and Moon squaring the Lunar Nodes – Moon Wobble 1). Imbalance is to be anticipated on a geopolitical level, our own organic system, emotional state, as well as in relationships to others, creations and money.We are at a critical and important evolutionary crossroad that illuminates the need to stabilise, shape and crystallise themes (Fixed Grand Cross), and feed us with energy and intensity while calling on us to reconcile seemingly conflicting forces. When a system becomes destabilised or disrupted, it holds potentiality for new shapes, patterns and formations. As such this cosmic configuration provides momentum towards changes in our attitude towards attachments and values, and incorporates opportunities through a curious synchronicity and auspicious timing that may turn in our favour (Moon in exaltation and triplicity in conjunction with Uranus). This becomes more relevant with things of the past. It may emphasise that we need to change the way we appreciate and value things that do not allow us to move on through controlling attitudes, dependency patterns, relationships and ties with others. We are all witnesses of a shift and the change affecting our lives, sustaining a living and in our environment (earth). There is a need to re-evaluate and re-assess our self worth, as well the value of all things we hold dear. Questions such as should I stay or should I go, or where do I come from and where I’m heading characterise the polarised connection between what we own and what we share, through the canvas of values (material and spiritual), that integrates issues of credibility, integrity and individuality through the Nodal axis in Leo / Aquarius). Unexpected circumstances and developments surprise us, may upset our daily routines or renew us. The need to clarify imbalances, to innovate, try something different in love, our creations and possessions is obvious, but compelled to act on fixations and stubbornness , maybe risk prone and have long term or irreversible consequences. Naturally, destabilisation can be voluntary, be stirred by events, or others, so it is important to acknowledge we are still going through a re-evaluation process and not be too hasty in our commitments. The polarising dimension of the Full Moon squaring the Lunar Nodes (fixed grand cross) may require managing multiple levels and directions that can temporarily surprise us, upset us or push us to realise that eventually changing our attitude towards things may promote deeper and more meaningful connections. Standing still for a while, embracing change, and observe the forces coming from different directions maybe a way to deal with these energies. It is a time that brings revelations, that can revive the value of our creations, skills, relationships, that we either have abandoned or left pending. This allows us to renew the contract with ourselves but also to re-assess our self-worth. Contacts with others will act as triggers and reminders or things and creations we may have forgotten about, or where left at a dormant state in our consciousness will be illuminated by circumstantial occurrences.
