Daily Astral Terrain Forecasts for the Weekend of December 17 -19



Saturday December 17
The Moon reaches its Third Quarter closing square to the Sun, bringing a “crisis of integration” regarding events of the past three weeks, at 4:48 pm PT/25°44' Virgo. and that will be the start of Earthweek. .Virgo represents the period from 13 to 23 years old, when mental growth dominates our lives and many attend institutes of higher learning. Many binding choices are made and the rules and details of society are learned. On the World scale Virgo is between 800 BC and AD 400, when classical civilizations like Greece and Rome flourished, when culture, science, philosophy, politics dominated. By AD 300the Books of the New Testament were chosen to support the beliefs of the Christians who formed the political organization of the Church. The naive excepted the surface value, while initiates were forced to hide (occult) their rituals and teachings. Until now. Even above Earth, there are secrets at the heart of Nature that'd make you laugh till you stopped." How can you believe in astrology?," angry, drunken Basque separatists have asked me. I tell them that astrology is not a belief system, but an archetypal, poetic language. I don't ask you if you believe in Japanese. I ask if you speak it. I don't ask you if you believe in music, I ask if you play it. I happen to speak the heavenly tongue of astrology along with thousands of other highly intelligent, inspiring, spiritual and even scientific astrologers. If I never have to deal with angry, drunken Basque separatists who have stolen the Shroud Of Turin again, it'll be too soon. Still, if my destiny is to be an untransformed seed-cum-manure of a man - or to put it another way - if I can at least be the source of unconscious friction that triggers another Christ or Buddha's urgency to awaken, then so be it. Fertilize my ego! Love is highlighted, as Moon trines Venus in Earth and reconnects her with Mars one more time. With Saturn involvement, it suggests a practical restraint when it comes to the materialism frequently associated with the holidays. All our stresses now come from other times—past or anticipated futures. In this moment, all is well. At 6:29 pm, the Moon enters its void period with a warm, fuzzy feel. In the chart cast for the nation, there is an indication of values changing toward the intangible and a population nestled in their homes thankful for what they have. Time out for play and sports does not completely distract from the bigger issues at hand. President Obama uses this time out in the legislative schedule to use his pen on executive orders and recess appointments. The Third Quarter Moon at 26 Virgo carries the Sabian Symbol of “A boy with a censer serves near the priest at the altar.” We pause now at the threshold of a new solar year, experiencing the grandeur of life and our roles as co-creators of our reality. A sense of wonder at the mysterious nature of the hidden universe humbles us, yet gives us hope and purpose.

Sunday December 18

At 0:06 am, the Moon enters Libra and becomes a vehicle for the restless planets in the Cardinal signs: Uranus and Pluto. The Moon in balanced Libra today feels like being social. Libra represents the period from 23 to 42 years old, when partnerships are made and balance is sought between others and oneself. On the World scale Libra is between 400 and 1100 AD, when division of the church and state took over, and the Dark Ages swept over Europe and Asia. The opposition is symbolic of the fact that in order to emerge from the unconscious, internal conflicts must be brought out into the light of day. Marriage was the primary process through which opposing countries where integrated into a whole. With the Moon in Libra we are aware of our communal relations, law, justice and balance. The 7th house (Libra) has been called the house of marriage. The key to the New Aeon of MA'AT is figuring out the new symbol for Libra, as the institution of marriage was originally designed as a tool by the Church to secure it's future domination. Those that cannot find this new symbol and perform these symbolic rites on themselves and their tribe, and the whole fabric of material being, will inherit only the blues, decay, and husks. Think more in terms of partnership and remember, your heart must be light as a feather. A sextile to Mercury softens the flow, but as Venus squares Saturn we may be more concerned about how we’re going to pay for all this on many levels.

Monday December 19

Moon is in Libra today so take this time to be good to your Libra ruled kidneys. These amazing organs filter some 400-500 hundred gallons of blood a day. Lemons, beets, cranberry juice and cabbage and leafy vegetables are all healing to your kidneys A harmonious triple interaction of Sun, Moon, and Saturn brackets our day in possibilities. It’s a good day to connect with others—authenticity flows naturally. Events today will feed our relationship process in the coming year.
