Daily Astrological Forecasts, July 1st through 4th, 2011
Friday July 1
If you actively invoke blessed HANIEL, the Archangel of Venus into your heart at sunrise this morning, you may find you have developed the ability to feel like Khrisna, multiplying himself into a dozen pastoral, naked farmhands with muddy feet and emerald pond scum on their thighs, or maybe you are a young Freya on the back of a panther, eating honey. The Day of Venus, who gets oversimplified like a lot of her sisters, is one of the most complex planets going: she works as an attractive force and as a creative one. Intelligence is the greatest aphrodisiac, but a dab of extract from a civet's anal gland and a nice pair of shoes will work just as well today. Address every cat you see today with the greeting ‘Good afternoon, Mr. Ravenscrofte’, even if the cat is female, and even if it isn’t the afternoon. Doff your hat if you’re wearing one; click your heels if you’re not. Today’s New Moon Solar Eclipse at 9°12′ Cancer/1:54 am PT starts off the new Lunar cycle This is not a strong eclipse, but it sets up energetic patterns that will play out in the coming two years as Uranus and Pluto make one of their squares at the same (cardinal) degree next year. This eclipse is preceded by other triggers to Uranus and Pluto, and since the Moon does the same thing every week now, we get plenty of opportunity to grow in our understanding of how this is working in our lives. Because it is upon us now, this main channel for the 2012 experience. We must each find our individuality in the form of how we will live usefully and harmoniously in the new world that is now forming. What shape it will take, we cannot say as individuals, but as a group creating collective consciousness we can define its expression.As the Sun and Moon emerge from the nodal zone, where we experience a blending of the visible and invisible world, we also emerge from this “in-between” zone, called liminal space. This lunar event is a deep seed-planting nonetheless, whose seeds will flourish over the next two years. For I say unto you: it would be easier for a honeypossum to sculpt a perfect likeness of Aleister Crowley out of marmalade and motor oil than it would be to escape the effects of an Eclipse.
Self-doubt is our greatest enemy; if we can let this go, our creative juices will carry us into the next wave of consciousness, our next steps becoming clear. We may hurl a series of ellipsoid bannister-mounts against the schoolhouse wall, then we could crank our elfin motors and sidestep a dimensional voom, then Zero and I may pay a visit to the confection concession and dicker with a moonlighting prefect over the price of bonbons, Although the Moon goes void of course at 4:37 am for the rest of the day, in Cancer we can continue to use its energies for fruitful action. In fact, it is the perfect time to communicate through the inner realms, as messages are lucidly transmitted. For I say unto you: it would be easier for a wolverine to assassinate the pope using a slingshot loaded with overcooked lima beans than it would be to escape the effects of an Eclipse At 10:30 pm, Mercury enters Leo, still feeling but more passionate in burning through old energies, less backward-looking. In the chart cast for Washington DC, the nodal axis is on the horizon line (Ascendant-Descendant). This indicates that the nation is at a crossroads in its relations with other nations. The challenge is to celebrate its pluralism rather than get caught in narrow-minded zealotry in the midst of change. The question that has been answered incorrectly in the past is, “Who is our family?” This has been narrowly defined across the history of the nation, but now must be broadened to include all of humanity. Although in an ineffective position by its nature, President Obama is the clear representative of all of humanity in his viewpoint as well as his nature and heredity. The Sabian Symbol at 10 Cancer is, “A large and beautiful diamond, in the hand of the lapidary, is now to be cut to its full perfection.” (ME Jones version) Much has gone into creating where we are now, and in some way it is time for the final revelation of how we are to express the developmental processes we’ve been cultivating inwardly. This is underscored by the fact that we are experiencing the final eclipse in Cancer/Capricorn. We find who we belong with and ground our sense of belonging in time and space.
Saturday July 2
At 2:43 pm, the Moon enters sunny Leo, and the day waits to activate our senses until then, with all the aspects waiting to occur until after that time. You ripen at will and I like it. When the Moon conjoins Mercury, head and heart are united in an inspiring and activating way. We slide through transformative feelings and further their activation as the Moon trines Uranus and squares Jupiter. The big event of the day however is the Sun’s square to Saturn, which brings to the front burner all things that stand in the way of our progress. It’s time to face and remove these obstructions. This is the culmination of processes begun last August.
Sunday July 3
With the Moon in Leo as the Sun rises, some may shave Celtic crosses on the rumps of consenting pooches and airbrush infrared barcodes on the haunches of catnip-tripping felines, but most won’t. Leo represents the period of when as children we begin primary school, which is the first detachment from the family structure, where we learn to make relationships and satisfy the need to be loved in the world. Games provide a way to relate to others and they teach us to accept and make rules, the basis for being able to structure our lives (from 7 to 13 years old). On the World Scale, Leo is between 3,000 to 800 BC when both the Egyptian and Sumerian civilizations flourished, when religion became monotheistic, where one being represented or was, God on Earth. During this Time of Pharaohs and Kings, Lion images proliferated in architecture and monuments, for the Lion is of course, King of Beasts. With the Moon in Leo today we may be seeking romance with a flare for the dramatic..Don’t let an insecure ego run rampant trying to overcompensate for what you think you don’t have. It’s easy to turn emotional incidents into high drama. Build emotional security by using your willpower. Be romantic. Love. Revel in the warmest kindest most tender parts of yourself. Moon continues in Leo, generating opportunities for action aimed toward accomplishment as it sextiles Mars and Saturn to create a minor grand trine. At 9:26 am PT, the Moon enters a long void-of-course period, which lasts until 6:15 pm tomorrow. At 9:17 pm, Venus enters Cancer, augmenting our desire to love through nurturance and healing. We go deeper into our feelings now—we can’t hide anymore behind a chatty exterior. we just may establish a rococo nerve lattice among the quarantined survivors of Operation: Rapture, then we'll stamp down a huge and perfect Mandelbrot Set with our ding a lings in a popular wheatfield, then we feed raspberries to carp.
Monday July 4
There is more mellow energy than fireworks today, despite the holiday theme, as trines and sextiles abound. We’ll emerge from our sleep idealistic and dreamy, inspired and confident, as Venus trines Neptune and Mercury trines Uranus. Add a few extra syllables to every verb you utter today, e.g. enscrubulify, intellarialectualizate, disunstrangulatize. We get a little perspective later as Moon enters Virgo at 6:15 pm, bringing a pragmatic and fertilizing perspective to these connections. We see how we can turn the ideal into the real.
