3 Days of Darkness

This article of channeled information hit me like a sledge hammer.  Think "rapture", in common terms.

Things are different now, I feel them, I feel everything, I know things, kids are different - the world has changed, if you really pay attention to what you know.

New Moon, Uranus direct and the End of the World

Sure, people tend to think astrology is hokey entertainment, but in actuality, things, events, storms, etc. seem to coincide with astrological events. Timing is everything and these energies are within us, we only project them to the outside world, like the planets or elements or whatever. We, on 12/13 we had a New Moon, good time to start a new project for the coming lunar cycle, but Uranus, in Aries went direct - Uranus is the planet of surprises. I think we were all surprised, stunned really, by the events that unfolded in CT that week.  A month prior to that, a big full moon on Halloween ushered in a hurricane across the East Coast.

This week is the "official" end to the Mayan calendar calculations, depending on who you read. Either way, it IS the Winter Solstice, the beginning of a new season, Winter, the end of a year approaching (by zodiac terms, the beginning of the New Year is March 21st). Winter is a time of contemplation, reflection, and relaxation. But with Christmas thrown in the mix, it is anything but for many people. With the end of the Mayan cycles, they say that this year 2012 completes several major astronomic cycles all the same time. Cycles that span 26,000 years, 5000 years, 2100 years and so on. And what makes this time special is that they all converge simultaneously in the end of an Age (Pisces) and the beginning of a new Age (Aquarius). That's roughly one of the shorter 2000 year cycles. So, with the new Lunar cycle, we have and ending/beginning combo shortly after. A big one, really. To me, this is overpowering for a small lunar cycle, so I chose to make no "intentions" on the Moon this month in favor of maybe just riding out this extremely tumultuous period in observation.

Patient observation isn't my thing, so I've simply been making of mess of my past relationship...perfect.

Finally, we have a Full Moon on 12/28 which astrologers are comparing to the big one that hit me back in Sept when Chantal and I split up. They say this one could be equally jarring (how I make it through more of that is anyone's guess). However, it also looks like it completes the cycle that began on 9/30, so I suppose that's a good thing because Autumn, for me, has been utterly horrible and I'll be glad to see it go. Saturn in Scorpio has me moving back and forth between its influences: Death and Rebirth. I'm all over the map these days and feel very unstable. Too much is ending, nothing fresh is coming online and there's too much sadness in the world. I feel it all and I'm struggling against it. So, in a way, it IS the end of the world and maybe that world needs to end because it hasn't been all that fabulous to begin with, from my perspective.

Listening to Lisa Renee's latest podcast, I realized some really important things.  I've been struggling for months with my breakup and fighting against it, mentally, emotionally.  It has led to a bought of deep sadness, depression, anxiety and very real thoughts of suicide and a feeling of disconnect with life.  She explains that struggle here and I feel that it's what I've been doing: struggling against the world creating anguish in my own life:

If you feel that your struggling against the world, like I did/was, perhaps this can help you too.  It's time to give in to the Higher Power at work, whatever you feel that that is.

To listen, it's "Energetic Synthesis" on iTunes.

I've seein a lot of birds of prey lately.  They've come close to me, within a few feet, closer than I've ever seen (except for one amzing flyover by a bald eagle on a canoe trip!).  Looking at Michigan's bird species, its probably some kind of hawk, Coopers or Sharp Shinned:

Sharp_shinned_hawk_12042006

The hawk totem is thus:

Hawk is the messenger, the protector and the visionaries of the Air.

It holds the key to higher levels of consciousness.

This totem awakens vision and inspires a creative life purpose.

 

 

A Hawk totem is filled with responsibility
because Hawk people seek the overall view.
They are aware of omens and spirit messages.

A Red-Tailed Hawk Totem is special.
It has direct ties to the Kundalini, the seat of primal life force.
It is associated with the base chakra .
If you have this Totem, you will be aware of and work towards fulfilling your soul's purpose.
It reflects a greater intensity of energy within your life: 
physical, emotional, mental and spiritual forces will all be strong within you.
The Red-Tail Hawk is a permanent totem -- it will always be with you.

It is associated with the number "14" with the Tarot card Temperance.
This card represents the teaching of higher expressions of psychic ability and vision.

 

I have 5 planets in my birth chart in Air Signs.  I always wanted to be a pilot.  I feel comfortable in the air.  "14" was always my lucky number, and for anyone who knows me, knows that I am a Temperate man.

I see these hawks as reinforcing what I already know of myself.  I honor their message as I've done before.

If animals come to you, see if you can find the message in their presence.  There is always a message there...

New Moon in Scorpio, Solar Eclipse

...in my 5th House of True Love and Creativity!  While it should be an exciting time, I feel as though things are coming to a head in many areas of my life.  Pressed to the extreme, I am lucky to even see this New Moon.  So, lets see where all this goes...

 

My Intentions for this Moon:

 

I INTEND to heal my incredibly broken heart, once and for all, eliciting all the help from friends and family that I can find

I INTEND to hold the space for Chantal that I have for this long for one more lunar cycle, to see through the complex astrology of this time in her life and our collective.  I INTEND to do this in a most healthful and healing way, with no attachment to the outcome, but hopeful for a happy future with her.

I INTEND to focus on my life as it is now, here, in this place and with what's presented to me.  Not focusing on the future, or the past, paying close attention to the signs, signals and messages I'm being presented.

I INTEND to finalize my divorce by the next Lunar cycle.  I INTEND to create any resources needed to accomplish this once and for all.  I INTEND to be free from the past that ties me down.

I INTEND to enhance my spiritual connection in order to facilitate all of the above.

 

The space we are in now is incredibly intense.  I hope all of you are finding a way to cope.  Lean on each other, be close to those who love you, forgive each other, find a calm space every day.

Newmoon2
It's a New Moon in Libra (12:02 UDT, 7:02 EDT) and as I have in the past, I wanted to make some intentions for this lunar cycle.  The energy is stronger the closer to the New Moon that you do them.

 

I intend to hold space in my life for my relationship with Chantal to continue.  I do this with the desire that this outcome is in the best interest of all parties, her, me and her son, as well as our families and the future that our union would create.  

I intend to shift my belief structures surrounding relationships, to create the most supportive and solid structures that attract the best long term outcomes to my life.

I intend to begin the divorce process and file all necessary paperwork as soon as possible.

I intend to learn to communicate with my Spirit Guides, Angels and dragon on a more consistent basis, to be able to leave the debilitating realm of the mind and center my actions in the High Heart of the 5th Dimension.

I intend to commune with nature on a regular basis, to the best of my ability in the area that I currently live.

I intend to open my heart to abundance, in all its forms, and to create from a field of love and truth.

Follow up on the Uranus/Pluto square and the Monster full moon of Sept 30th

Chad_and_chantal_at_avicii

The last full moon, what one astrologer termed a "Monster Moon", had some tremendous affects on me.  Whenever the moon is full, it is in "opposition" to the sun.  Opposition is a hard aspect for any two planets in so much as they are at odds with each other for your attention.  I know they try to scientifically explain the effects of full moons, but astrology has done that already.  The Moons weapons are "emotion", while the Sun fights with its pride and ego.  You can see how a full moon can be a chaotic affair.

 

This last full moon was conjunct with Uranus, planet of "surprises" and "change".  Uranus moves things out fast.  So this conjunction could be seen as "emotional surprises", in opposition to "pride and ego".  As if that wasn't enough, Pluto sat at a 90 degree square to all three of these bodies.  This is called a "square" aspect.  It's considered stressful in astrology.  Pluto rules the Underworld and brings out the hidden, the secret, the unexpressed.

 

This was the perfect storm.  The week of the Uranus/Pluto square, Sept 19th saw many sad displays of stress; suicides, murders, random events of struggle and the frayed ends of sanity.  This was only the beginning.  As astrologers describe it, the Uranus/Pluto square was the dynamite, the full moon was the lighting of the fuse.  It blew up in my face.

 

My relationship to my most beloved girlfriend ended the day after of the full moon, Sept 30.  Tired of my inability to be who I truly am and frightened to be who she is not (sorry this is vague, I've been really getting to the bottom of it and it has taken over a week, I cannot explain it all here), she ended our affair.   I was shocked (Uranus).  I was emotional (full moon).  I was angry (sun).  It was something she had been testing me on, compiling, examining (pluto).  I utterly failed her.  But worse of all, I failed myself.  I wasted 2 years denying what I really came here to do with my life.  She was to be the one to save me from my self.  I always knew it.  My heart told me so the moment I saw her.  But fear is a killer.  Killer of dreams, killer of hopes, killer of potential and happiness.  Fear ruined my relationship.

 

Shortly after this Monster Moon, Saturn transited through Libra (Sign of Relationships) and on into Scorpio.  Saturn did it's job.  It forced me to look at how my relationships work, what they do for me and why we have them.  3 major break ups during the 3 year transit of Saturn in Libra has been trying on my soul.  I considered suicide on a repeated basis.  I cried, I raged, I drank and sulked.  I examined it from every angle with every tool I could muster:Reiki, massage, Theta healing, astrology, tarot, books on trauma, vibration, the quantum field.  I have learned so much in 3 years because of this transit that surely I'd have it all figured out by now, right?!  Only now, at the end do I truly understand...

 

Now that Saturn has moved on the Scorpio, I have more hope that what I've learned will be able to guide me in the future.  Deeply understanding relationships and working (Saturn=work) on that has helped me in ways that I look forward to putting into practice.  And now that I see this association, I have awareness of what the next transit will address.  Scorpio is the sign of regeneration, birth and death (expect this change - astrologers aren't talking about it, but I think it's a definite possibility), reproduction.  Scorpio is the sign ruled by Pluto.  It's the deep dark recesses of ourselves and the hope that rebirth can bring.  As a water sign myself, perhaps I will be better able to deal with this transit.  In my natal chart, both the Moon and Uranus are located in my 7th House (ruled by Libra).  This is just like it was at the end of Sept. so I think it was "cosmic" in nature and affected that House for me because that influence was prebuilt in to my chart.  Everyone has a point of focus in their lives.  It's evident in their birth chart.  The more of them I do, the more I see how each of us is really here to do major work in specific areas.  But we spend most of our lives unaware.  We just "do our best" without real guidance.  Without it, it can be difficult.  Even with it, it's difficult, but at least I now have avenues of understanding.  For me that's been really important.

 

How it will all turn out, I have no idea.  Signals are mixed now and not very clear.  On top of that, there's what  I truly want and it clouds what's in front of me.  That's been my problem the whole time.  I don't believe that we are here to get what we want.  In fact, "wanting" seems to be an impediment to growth because you cannot see and accept what you're being offered.  Accept "The Plan" as it is.  We're not taught that.  We're taught to choose some goal and shoot for it.  It's difficult now as I've spent a lot of time not doing what I feel has always been the right thing for me.  If that's the case, is it too late?  How hard will it be to change course now, to progress on the right path?  Saturn in Scorpio says to keep fighting for what I want...

 

Just keep swimmin'...

Uranus Square Pluto

A great article, again, by Barbara Hand-Clow on the coming Uruanus (Uranus)/Pluto (Pluto (alternate)square (Square-symbol.svg).

http://handclow2012.com/News/Intentions2ndUP.pdf

She discussed the South Node of the moon (Southnode-symbol.svg(not shown below), which would be at 27 degrees Taurus, opposite the North Node (Northnode-symbol.svg). Further info about the Nodes can be found here.  

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_node

I find the Vedic astrological mythology fascinating, also.  The terminology and symbols can be confusing, so I've included some.  Squares are hard aspects, problems to be solved as it were.  Trines are positive, supporting aspects that enhance the energies of planets.

As a therapist, I really resonate with the message of healing coming through with the Sun trine the South Node.  Virgo is the sign of the healer and deals with all manner of issues related to health - food, exercise, hygiene, etc.

Also shown here is a Saturn/Neptune trine.  I found this info interesting: 'You're skillful in gaining secret information, solving mysteries and analyzing the subtle factors of business investment and stocks"

http://www.oocities.org/rbltre/astro/saasne.html#trine

In the chart below, there's a lot of activity in the 4th House of Home.  Concurrently, Saturn is conjunct the imum coeli here, also a symbol for home/mother, which is to say, it's opposite the mid-heaven, or mid-coeli.  Here's some info on that:

Saturn Opposite Midheaven: You can be cold and formal in your home life or may lack warmth in a parent/child relationship, usually with your father. Heavy responsibilities can cause home problems and often one parent may become a burden. Inhibition will prevent your ambitions from fully developing. You often experience conflict between home and career, often centering on your sense of duty to both.

http://www.oocities.org/rbltre/astro/saasmc.html#opposite

Expect a lot of activity in this realm of your life personally.  It is already occurring here in my home life. Mars is at home in Scorpio and will do much tenacious digging and active pursuit of those goals of Scorpio in the 4th House.  There's certainly a lot of "truth" in Washington D.C. that needs to come out!

All in all, these successive Uranus/Pluto squares are "rattling the cages", as it were.  Expect the changes.  Use the energies.  Don't focus on the negative outside world.  That's important.  The outside world is very much a distraction from what most of us want to accomplish in our personal lives.  If you have the misfortune of being caught up in one of these sensational events, then it is your immediate world and you were meant to be there.  Syria, Iran, Aurora, CO...if you're not there, it wasn't meant for you!

In the words of my favorite internet destination, Red Ice Creations:
