Here in LA the New Moon in Scorpio comes at high noon. This is no ordinary new moon. First Venus and Mercury are also in Scorpio and yes, they are being squared by Mars in Leo. Lets think about that. So secrets have to come out. And some grand violence has to happen–that is just at an ordinary level. These days that is nothing special. Yet it takes on meaning at a deeper level Pluto sextiles this new moon and is still in that four degree orb square to Uranus which quintiles the new moon.
Okay. So what??? Thee is what the Hubers called a energized learning triangle. Add to this that Saturn is in Libra, but ruled by this Venus and moving into a trine with Uranus–and? Hopefully the rabbit will come out of the hat and we will all swoon, just a little at the entertainment the stage of our society provides.
Look for this time to really exose some lessons about who public figures are and that there will be a scandal which, in this age of scandals, is still not known. Probably sex and money will be the motive here. Corporate money and sex just tossed in for the good times of it all. Someone’s career will go bump in the night.
Pluto continues its trine with Pluto, creating yet another triangle, usually trines like this show that something can happen even when the rest of the situation has good south.
The Sabian Symbol for all this is “An electrical storm.” Power and its misuse can create a crisis. And it is coming!!!
On the individual level, look inward to those dark but powerful secrets that lurk in the 8th house areas of sex, shame rebirth and burying the past. Even urges to abuse money. The goal is to face a fear, an urge of the dark side– and transform that energy into power that can work for you and not hang you up. Talk to yourself about this while driving in the car. It’s okay. Other drivers will think you are just talking on the phone and now figuring your life out! The joke is on them!
Oh and one last thing-the next new moon is a solar eclipse in Sagittarius–time to learn the lesson even deeper–but that will be the subject of the next entry in this mumble of mind–the meaning of the Sag and Gemini eclipses coming up and straddling Mercury retrograde. Sounds a little naughty, but to this astrologer, palmist, aura reader, card reader, writer, scuba diver, flute player and general humanitarian. Something may be coming that is good news. At least the Iraq war will be closed down, not that a few mercenaries wont be around.
Until later.
