Libra Lunar Cycle/Fireweek Forecast

Libra Lunar Cycle/Fireweek Forecast

The seed/ideas we have from the New Moon to the First Quarter Moon come from the kabbalistic world of Atziluth (Fire) and are the blueprints/seeds for everything that exists, has existed, and will ever exist in the physical world of Assiah (Earth), as an embodiment of the archetypal idealized apple (or a least the Core).. Fireweek is the time to remember we're in the pilots seat of our own personal Lightcraft and make some course corrections if we've veered off course… The Libra Lunar cycle is a fresh opportunity to take relationships in a different direction. This partnership sign invites understanding, accommodation and compromise which are helpful for overcoming differences and finding common ground with others. At the New Moon on October 15th, Libra's leading lady Venus is in modest Virgo and square generous Jupiter spurring those lacking confidence to give too much of themselves. Fortunately, an innovative Fire trine between adventurous Mars in Sagittarius and ingenious Uranus in Aries encourages originality that solves longstanding problems and ignites the drive to pursue new people and projects. The New Moon in Libra invites us to be more aware of the positions we hold in relationships. We can see how our alliances are out of balance and where we need to renegotiate with partners to put them on an even keel. Fairness is the essence of Libra and it applies to ourselves as well as to others. Giving generously is kind but making sure that we’re being treated equitably is just as important. Libra also represents the truth!.What is the truth? All I know is sometimes we all feel like we’re just a puny little ants who can never change a thing, but don’t despair, for we are many … and when we combine our numbers, we are a very powerful force! And there is a melancholy flavor in the way the ants, with their brightly tinted bonnets and tattered Broadway musical scores, parade up and down the street until the wee wee hours of the morning. As a lover of American Indian culture, an old Indian wise man once said,

"Something lives only as long as the last person who remembers it. My people have come to trust memory over history. Memory, like fire, is radiant and immutable, while history serves only those who seek to control it. Those who would douse the flame of memory, in order to put out the dangerous fire of truth, beware of these men...for they are dangerous themselves and unwise. Their false history is written in the blood of those who might remember...and of those who seek the truth."

No matter what happens, never forget these events. Pass them down to your children. Because history is being rewritten to protect foolish, dangerous men … and we are now the elders of truth. I’m not going to candy coat this, so listen up – the multiple reactor meltdowns at Japan’s Daiichi’s Nuclear Power Plant are a global killer, but it may not be the worst disaster we have to face. I might as well get the bad news out of the way first, I’m sorry to report that after all the hard effort; we may have only prolonged the inevitable...without the slightest care for the sanctity of human life, the uncaring nuclear industrial complex, along with their enablers disguised as our protectors -- the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC), the Nuclear Regulatory Agency (NRA), The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), etc. has callously allowed millions of people to die with no remorse or guilt. Let’s be clear -- It makes little or no difference if exposure comes from an “atomic warhead” or from a “nuclear reactor meltdown,” the end result is the same -- people horribly suffer and die. And just like the world revolution that’s currently being waged around the globe with hardly a whisper in mainstream media, it will not be televised or reported. In war, you must first recognize your enemy before you can fight.Radiation and human health are not friendly co-companions. Exposure attacks the human body at its most basic level – cell structure. Cells carry out the vital functions necessary to sustain and develop all living creatures. Over ten trillion cells make up the human body. The cell takes in food, gets rid of waste, produces protein vital to life, and reproduces itself. Just as all living things are made up of cells, so every new cell is produced from another cell. Thus, the nature of the cell is determined by the genetic material in its nucleus. Genetic “coding” is extremely complex. In brief, our DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is tightly coiled in the forty-six chromosomes, which are stored in the cell nucleus. Surrounding the nucleus is the cytoplasm, the “factory” that carries out the directions of the DNA intelligence center. It is the whole of this cell mechanism – cell wall, cytoplasm, and nucleus – that forms the bases of human life.

When a radioactive particle or ray strikes a cell, a lot can happen. Worst of all: it can damage a cell in such a way that the damage is repeated when the cell divides. Think about that last paragraph for a minute….once
DNA is damaged; distorted messages can be transmitted to the cell and passed on through reproduction. Thus thousands of mutated clone cells can reproduce themselves, forming the basis for tumors which in turn – devastates the body system multiplying millions of damaged cells that can later become cancerous.
Radiation is also well known for destroying the body’s immune system. In simple terms, we get screwed on two fronts: The body gets jacked and then disabled so it can’t repair itself.

The most vulnerable is the human fetus, infants and young children -- whose cells are multiplying most frequently and most sensitive to radiation damage, especially the bone marrow. Perhaps that is why in a recent court statement released by independent scientist, Lauren Moret, gave expert testimony in a lawsuit brought against Japan..., to force them to do the right thing in evacuating more than 350,000 children from the Fukushima area, where they are forced to endure lethal doses of radiation. Even though she got zero attention here in the U.S., Lauren Moret’s important message was heard loud and clear around the world on the Internet:

“Fukushima’s radiation affects thousands of miles across the ocean!”

In continuing, she said “The west coast of North America is thousands of miles across the vast Pacific Ocean, a long way from Fukushima Daiichi and the radioactive solids, liquids, and gases being released daily and recklessly to poison both near and far. Already we are seeing the effects in North America. Air filters from cars in Seattle have been analyzed for hot particles and indicate that Seattle residents are inhaling 5 hot particles a day, in Tokyo it is 10 hot particles a day, in Fukushima Prefecture it is 30-40 times higher - 300-400 hot particles a day. Hot particles and alpha emitters such as Uranium and Plutonium have not even been mentioned by the government or TEPCO, nor has their contribution to total radiation released been considered. Alpha particles are biologically 20 times more damaging than beta particles,” she said.

“Iodine 131 in drinking water in San Francisco was reported by UC Berkeley to be 18,100% times higher than the EPA drinking water standard, yet the US government quit measuring it. Infant mortality in Berkeley, CA, and other west coast cities was reported by Dr. Janette Sherman to have increased 35% since March 11, after the Fukushima disaster. The babies are the first to die. Infant mortality in Philadelphia, PA. Where the highest Iodine 131 levels in drinking water measured in the US have been reported, has increased 45% since March 11. People on the west coast of the United States and even in Arizona are reporting a metallic taste in
their mouths – an indication of radioactive particles in the air as in Japan.”
She went on to say that “On the night of June 14, a nuclear incident occurred in the Reactor 3 building in the spent fuel pool when huge bursts of gamma ray fluorescence lit up the night sky and turned the reactor building as bright as the sun, indicating the spent fuel rods and melted uranium and plutonium were boiling off, vaporized along with the rest of the fission products.”

“The radiation from this unreported but very dangerous event was released without protecting the residents of Fukushima Prefecture – especially the children. But the radiation was detected at elevated levels from 2:30 AM until 7:30 AM on a monitor in Ibaraki Prefecture. How many Curies were released? When will this nuclear war against the Japanese people and the Northern Hemisphere ever end? Instead of evacuation, the government gives the children (sick with radiation symptoms) film badges to measure the external exposure dose… another study group like US govt. studies on Hiroshima and Nagasaki victims (they are still being studied), Iraq victims, Gaza victims. And the US government did the same thing to Americans during 1300 nuclear bomb tests in the US.”

Monday October 15
We get a fresh start with the New Moon at 5:03 am PT/22°32′ Libra (8:03 am ET), and what a start it is! Change is easier now, as Mars trines Uranus. This is the waning trine, giving us the opportunity to fall into alignment with the lessons learned since April 2011, particularly in November 2011 through June, and mid-July, 2012. We feel like taking actions now where we feel like we missed the boat. Pieces of the puzzle that we couldn’t find before fall into place in the course of this lunar month. The New Moon takes us into the internal space between the worlds, as its conjunction with the Sun marks the commencement of its void period. This lasts 12 hours, until 5:06 pm, giving us plenty of time to get in touch with what we need to accomplish in this cycle. At that time, the Moon enters Scorpio and connects with Saturn late in the day to focus our pensiveness into plans for future productivity. In the lunation chart cast for the US, not-so-hidden agreements are motivators for what happens. The Mars-Uranus trine forms an exact Grand Trine with the lunation Midheaven, giving the President an easy ride and suggesting positive poll numbers for the incumbent. Most of the pre-election vitriol is focused in local races and electoral skullduggery. An electorate that knows the truth is armored against any falsehood. The Sabian Symbol for 23 Libra, the New Moon degree, is “Chanticleer’s voice heralds the rising sun with enthusiastic tones”. This suggests an increased level of rhetoric both in the political arena and in our personal lives. It is often the case that the one who speaks loudest and longest is trying to convince themselves more than you.

Tuesday October 16
The Moon carries on in Scorpio, greeting the planetary cluster in early degrees. Communications go well today if we don’t overreach. It's not 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. Mercury sextiles Venus as she squares Jupiter. Our urge to communicate will tie into events of May, June, and September, as well as the Mars retrograde energy reaching back to November last year. The Moon occults (eclipses) Mercury at 7:23 pm (10:23 pm ET), increasing the emotional tone of our thoughts, a natural connection of head and heart. This opens the Moon’s void period, which lasts until tea time tomorrow.
