Fireweek
June 1 to June 7
Call it fortuitous, I love it when the first day of a Lunar Cycle (New Moon) corresponds with the first day of the month. And a partial Solar Eclipse! Shit yeah! We could call this “the Long Rebirth.” On this planet, we are generally used to being reborn in monthly installments, at each New Moon; in four month chunks with Mercury’s cycle; or on the yearly plan as the Sun makes its annual round with each of the other planets. But this one is profound, related to a 100-plus-year cycle. It will take several years to be realized. After the depths to which we plunged in December–April (the deeper you went, the more you’ll get out of it), we’ve come up gasping for air, asking, “Is it over yet?”The deep plunge is, yes. But the rebirth is of some considerable duration longer, most of which is still in the future. If you are a forward-thinker and initiator (cardinal—Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn), you will delight in this process. If you are more comfortable when you stabilize and hold energy (if you’re fixed—Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius)—or take care of details and complete things (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces), you will find this more arduous, like sitting on hot coals and being told not to move (an illusion of course).Ten swords in my back. One would have been enough, but you had to go and shove ten swords into my back. That’s what I love about you. June brings another episode in our personal rebirth story, as well as that of humanity, of the whole planet. It is not advised that you hold your breath until the show’s over, because it will take too long. No, we have to engage fully in the process, breathe through it, and transform. Only then will the provisional gods you’ve held behind plexiglas step forth with new recipes for meringue soufflé, and heaven knows what other wonders. Tear down the pyramids and let whales dine on the mummies of kings! Everything must go. The monkeys saw this coming and stayed in the trees, but now they descend to raze our mini-golf shrines and cut loose our pets from their leashes
WEDNESDAY JUNE 1
Before Sunrise it is dark. All the animals are sleeping. They form a bridge. The day is constellated most powerfully by the New Moon/partial Solar Eclipse at 11°02′ Gemini/2:03 pm PT, and what a day it is! The Sun is trine Saturn, and this glorious contact is fixed into our lives for the coming six months, granting us the wisdom to take effective and productive action in creating new expressions of our selfhood. The Moon aids and abets this with emotional motivation. We can’t stop ourselves from experiencing the good things in life! It’s a liquidation service for the soul. Upload everything you think you are onto the great millennial web and let the Lightcraft suck away the dross and clutter of this virulent cultural undermind rampant with dubious sampled notions and half-digested leftover memetic visions. In the chart cast for Washington DC, there’s an emphasis on economic processes, especially monetary issues. Rumblings from the right continue to threaten workers’ rights, especially the right to organize. This creates ongoing insecurity in the population that keeps people frightened but this creates a necessary vigilance in the people about protecting freedom and stability. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon/Solar Eclipse at 12 Gemini is: “A black slave girl demands her rights of her mistress.” The political experience of America’s working people mirrors the image in this symbol. We are all looking for ways in which we are being treated as less than equal, and seeking emancipation, in all our relationships. Seeking reciprocity will be the theme in our personal and intimate ties. All things which are artificially elevated are in the process of being humbled. This is a focus that will be central for us through the coming six months because this New Moon is also a Solar Eclipse. The prominence of the number 11 defines more precisely the type of liberation facilitated at this portal. In the 11th degree of Gemini (a sign whose symbol evokes the same number), it takes place on the 1st day of June (adding another 1), of the year 2011. Also, the sum of the day with the month and year (1+6+2011) is… Can you guess? 11. As a master number, it is not reduced to its smallest sum, but stands intact, connecting us with higher spheres of supernatural potential. One of the most intriguing observations I have read on the topic, confirmed by observation and experience, comes from an anonymous author, who says that portals marked by this number are special opportunities for humanity to reach higher levels of love.
THURSDAY JUNE 2
Look for faster action and easier communication as Mercury enters jumpin’ Gemini, the sign of its rulership at 1:03 pm PT. But first, the potential for inner fog exists as we feel tomorrow’s square to Neptune. Tina was capsized by a porcupine. Salvador was perforated by a weather balloon..Ursula was basted by a porthole. .Nikolai was reconstituted by a bat. The Moon continues through Gemini, echoing the process. Once just the flypaper scaffold of a vision – now a glorious reality. Once just sandgrains in a molecular hourglass – now miles of golden beaches.
FRIDAY JUNE 3
Today makes up for yesterday’s low level of planetary events. First is the station retrograde of Neptune, which is official at 0:28 am/0°56′ Pisces. This is virtually simultaneous with Mercury’s square to this planet of inner reality, essentially setting this up as a theme for the Neptune retrograde period, which lasts until November 9, returning to 28°08′ Aquarius. During that time, we get to learn how to play in Neptune’s playground—how to use energy, to work with unseen forces. With Mercury’s involvement, the focus is on learning, thought, and communication. What is the unseen world like and how can we use it to communicate with each other? We will be stimulated to investigate in the coming five months.The Moon goes void of course at 1:08 am, availing to us access into the deeper realms, since the veils have thinned. We’ll have to be quick about it; Moon enters caring Cancer at 1:36 am, then connects with Neptune and Chiron to give wings to our imagination, but brings us down to earth to get a new take on where our rebirth is headed as it recreates the cardinal grand cross with Uranus, Pluto, and Saturn. Time to re-imagine the future, again! Are we on the right track? Cyclonic Banshee Satori is the new mantra we assign to you free of charge. You want one of the round thingies, too? A mandala? All we have left are the ones with Aztec Mermaids in Cowboy Hats Riding Turquoise Emus. Oh, you’ve already got one of those? Well, you’ll have to wait if you want the Hedge-Devas on Bumblebees. Next week, maybe.
SATURDAY JUNE 4
It is a day for stumbling across lawns with a pitchfork in your back. Nevertheless, you may wish to take advantage of a claustrophilic Scorpio colleague’s invitation to lunch. Avoid decorative rugs at all costs, if you know what’s good for you. One more step into the future: Jupiter makes its ingress into Taurus today, at 6:56 am. We feel more grounded, and the earth signs get some support for their endeavors. This is especially useful to those who have planets in Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn, but anyone can use this energy to bring beauty into manifest form. It is the magician’s placement. As if seeking forgiveness for yesterday’s obstacle course, the Moon makes only harmonious connections today—sextiles to Mars and Venus. If you didn’t get all your jollies from the Venus-Mars conjunction last month, here’s another shot at it. Mercury sextiles Uranus to spice things up and bring innovative thoughts to the fore. We’ll be especially ingenious, brilliant at problem-solving today. The Moon enters its “void” period at 10:33 pm (in quotes because it does not behave like a void planet while in its home sign of Cancer).
