MARS RETROGRADE, Red alert! Never fear,it’s all good,fromTara Greene psychic Astrology Meditations
Mars Retrograde What Me worry?
You know the FEARMONGERERS 2012, It’s the END OF THE WORLD! blah blah blah. I tell you NO NO NO, It’s all good! Take it E Z, This is American language E long ZEEE. It sounds like EE Zed to Canadians and The British.
Red alert
- Take it EASY
RED ALERT!! or Take it E-Z? It’s your choice.
Mars Retrograde will slow everything and all of us down like molasses so might as well kick off yer shoes and enjoy it. This is SLOW communities, slow food, slow economics. Listen to THE EAGLES sing Take it easy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f47vwcV9FRI
MARS the RED PLANET Retrograde
MArs, known as the God ARES to the Romans. Mars rules all the Masculine energies, men in general, especially generals, the word martial comes from the root word Mars of course, war, action, passion, libido, leaders, the life force itself and defences. Testosterone levels will plummet. Mars need not be a hero during this time period. MArs retro will definitely Curb Your Enthusiasm.
From Jan 23 – April 13 Mars will be Marching backwards
So for these 11 weeks or so, S_L_O_W down. Review your actions. Mars will be Retrograde in Virgo an Earth sign, work, service to to other, perfectionism, health, accounting and accountability, completion. So all of these elements and activities will be reflected upon and rehashed.
So whatever sign you are including all MEN and WOMEN and VIRGO‘S ESPECIALLY review your Virgo tendencies to workaholism, your fanaticism to your diet, your yoga, gym or work out routine, your endless worrying and nitpicking about everything, stop being such a big control freak.
Mars Retro in Virgo { earth sign ruled by planet Mercury, the mind} helps us all to let go of all the endless monkey mind chatter chatter. Time to relax, let down your machismo, your heroic efforts to live forever, to be perfect, to live a perfect neat and tidy life.
Best to take it E-Z. As MArs Retrograde makes Mars 
MARS MALLOWS! or Mars Mellows!
All Virgo’s and Pisces will be most affected. Sagittarius and Gemini as well a Mars will square that sign. All Aries and Scorpio’s will be strongly affected as Mars is their ruling planet as the Retrograde slows down their initiative and life force. All countries and activities governed by Mars will slow down. Martian ruled countries include France, Germany, Poland, England, Syria, ALgeria, Norway, Zambia. Mars rules cities include Washington D.C. New Orleans, Liverpool, Halifax, Naples and Florence Italy.
With Syria in that list I predict the Syrian goverment will likely fall during this time period.
Jan 23 – April 13. All Retrogrades Rx is their symbol are Prescriptions, good medicine.
So for these 11 weeks or so, S_L_O_W down. All Retrogrades give us the Gift of Time to Re-view your past actions. All words beginning with the Pre-fix RE apply. RE-lax, Re-flect, Re-fine, etc.
Mars will march back from 23 degrees 6” of Virgo to 3 degrees 41”.
Mars takes on a backwards journey through earthy hard working Virgo. There was also a pre Retro and Post retro phase which runs from Nov. 18 2011- June 19, 2012, those are the degrees the planet moves back and forth between.
Mars rules leaders and indicates that heads will roll as has already been seen in the changing of heads of governments and countries during these times such as in Greece, Italy, Libya, Egypt. Expect much more of the same.
The down side may be WAR as machismo when caught by the balls re-acts and defends. But its better to LAY DOWN YOUR ARMS as Joni Mitchell sings http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2y3S_FilsQ
While Mars is retrograde in Virgo, Mercury, Virgo’s ruling planet is important to watch.
Yes work will slow down. The testosterone levels will fall. We will reflect on our accounting, there will be big money reversals, big change ups.
The market may go haywire. The usual forward running motion is halted. Mars Retro is amiable, directionless.
Please note that since July 2005 the Progressed Mars in the U.S. Natal or Sibly chart turned retrograde at 19 degrees of Libra,and will remain so until 2085.
While Mars is retrograde, Mercury its ruling planet moves through Capricorn into Aquarius and Pisces. Mercury opposes Mars on Feb 23.
MERCURY GOES RETROGRADE on March 12 @ 6 minutes 49 minutes of Aries. So we will get a double echo retro effect. A RE RE effect.
Mercury goes Direct on April 4 @ 23 degrees 51 minutes of Pisces.
VENUS opposes Mars on FEB 2, which is Imbolc/ Ground Hog Day
Now there’s a movie about going backwards in time! Don’t ya love it! This is a perfect perfect symbol of what Mars retrograde teaches us. The protagonist is an angry, bitter, cynical man, he wakes up on Groundhog day to discover his life is repeating over and over again, No matter what happens to him he wakes up alive the next morning. Its a Bill Murray classic.
Venus enters Mars territory on Feb 8 So this is an interesting twist of fate. While the masculine is laid back, Venus the Goddess is amping up her libido in Aries. Now Venus is also weak in the sign of Aries her opposite sign.
March 5 Venus enters her home territory of TAURUS
Where she is at her most earthly regal, grounded, sensual, practical, hands on beautiful.
Venus enters GEMINI April 3
Which is Mercury, Virgo’s ruling planets home sign. So Venus is helping Mars out here.
MEDITATION on MARS Retrograde and WAR, Anger Revenge, Hatred, Fear
Mars as rulerof Aries represents the life force itself. Usually seen as the active, Masculine sperm or seed, the Light that illuminates, that fire which ignites life, the principle that exists along side and partners with a totally Feminine Universe.
Mars is not necessarily destructive, that is a negative Masculine expression. But one which we have come to think of as a natural as we have been indoctrinated into a Patriarchal masculine world view based on defending one’s possessions, war and domination. So MArs retrograde is a time to look at to review and understand one’s motivations,one’s desires, attachments, aggressions, defensiveness. To reflect on what one fears, hates, seeks revenge on,what angers and enrages.Fear and hatred, defensiveness is the root of all violence anger and war.
MEDITATION ON MARS RETROGRADE- coming shortly
Sit comfortably, war loose clothing,
Take 9 deep breaths,
New years Eve, Times Square,Astrology forecast from Tara Greene
New years Eve Astrology
2012 predictions authentic psychic Tara Greene,crystal ball on world news, my 2011 predictions were accurate
Many of my 2011 predictions came true:
I predicted the tsunami in Japan in the spring. Let the revolutions begin worldwide was my main headline for 2011.
Overview: 2012 is NOT I repeat NOT the end of the world.
It will be filled with dramatic highs and lows, as a new interface with a higher reality is manifesting but not everyone will see it.
2012 will be known as the Year of Spiritual manifestation. The Law of Attraction is all there is. What you fear is what you get more of. Your inner self is reflected in your outer, pretty or not. We are walking a razor’s edge. More people will be experiencing how we all magnetically attract our true inner self {Karma} in the outer material world and in our relationships. What you feel unconsciously is what you get. Really!
2012 as far as Quantum Physics goes is already a done deal. If you fear the world’s end that’s what you will create. 2012 is a shift to higher Oneness consciousness.
You could also call it the year of Unicorns, as it will be magical, if you believe.
My advice is: Keep your charkas open, watch for the synchronicity as a map and use your Neti pot.
Chakras 1-7 + 8th and 9th chakras
2012 is the year of VENUS as there will be a major astrological event as Venus crosses the Sun.
It is not really the official end of the Mayan calendar. I have deep insider information on this. Many people are using the end date as a money magnet it’s a type of Spiritual Y2K.
It’s merely the end of a 5,000-year cycle. It all depends on who your translator is. Besides a circular calendar never officially ends. The alignment with the Galactic Center actually began in 1998 and continues on for some years, with the mid-pint is around Dec 21 2012.
2012 will be a circus, literally. Cirque du Soleil is doing a big free show at Palenque Mexico on Dec 21n 2012.
- Economy will falter worldwide.
You can only prop up a dying economy for so long. We are in a time re-set to the Great depression as a worldwide movement. The Planets describe major long-term historical cycles and with Uranus {revolution} at zero degrees of Aries now, as it was exactly before the Depression in 1929 plus it will square Pluto this year. That signifies the break down of capitalist culture. But first ultra conservative politicians aren’t ready to let go yet.
- WAR BEGINS IN IRAN in March – use of new hi tech scalar weapons and robots with some nuclear weapons. Israel in a sorry state. Oil prices go through the roof. Economy slows down.
3. All U.S. Muslims or suspected Islamic Fundamentalists, Taliban sympathisers et al their affiliates will be put into huge PRISON CAMPS { JAILS} in the U.S. It may be easier for unsuspected travellers to fly and go through security once this is implemented.
4. What’s your Security Rating?
Everyone will be rated according to his or her security danger in North America. Canada, U.s. and Mexico. This will be mandatory. People will be stratified, a police state mentality.
5. Creeping Technocracy overtakes democratic rule worldwide. Rule by the Plutocrats, goodbye politicians.
6. More political protests World Wide. OCCUPY the EARTH
The revolutions and mass protests against totalitarian and democratic regimes have just begun so expect this to continue and get stronger. The Arab Spring continues as the Arab Winter. Syria not over yet, its people fight on. North Korea, Iraq, China will see protests.
7. A new global government monetary agency will be formed to facilitate the changeover to a new global currency. The Euro will be a done deal. EU is fried. Buy euros now as funny money souvenirs. The British were smart; they kept their own system.
8. We are not alone in the Universe, a fact.
Irrefutably we are not alone! Evidence is obvious. UFOS cannot be denied or explained away as swamp gas. Crop circles will become more spectacular in 2012.
9. You are what you know. Pay for your information: Google will become stratified according to how much information is worth. On the information highway are you driving a BMW or a Dodge caravan?
10. Spiritualising Medicine
Sound healing and laughing your way healthy. Calling Dr. Dolphin…
Sound healing, brain wave entrainment, hypnotherapy, dream incubation like in Inception. Spiritual surgery. The mind body spirit connection is known as hard fact. Slice and dice surgery will be only for accidents, transplants etc. Best of all you don’t need a medical plan. Dolphins will be used to heal people with cancer and other serious diseases. Laughter IS the best medicine. Comedy and clowning will be respected as honoured profession. Look at the guy who started Cirque, he was a clown.
11. ONLY in BOLIVIA, you say?
CULTURE of respect for all of nature
Bolivia started this trend. Laws will be passed so that nature Herself and animals have their own rights.
Anti-violence cultural laws brought into place
A larger popular movement to stop violence in US culture through video games, movies, and music, which is anti-female, misogynist music.
Respect for all life forms will become encultured.
Equality between men and women on the rise in all aspects.
New independent schools springing up to teach yoga, spirituality, the honouring of nature, all life forms.
12. WEATHER
The earth changes that were long predicted over 30 years ago will be even more intense.
Very high magnitude earthquakes all over the world. Extremely wet weather with Tsunamis, Tidal waves, hurricanes, oceans rising, ice caps melting at alarming rates. Summer will be very hot with record high temperatures and droughts. Drought conditions in Russia, Northern Canada prairies, California and many forest fires raging out of control. Weather patterns consistently intense. Heavy and high wind storms.
13. SUNSPOT CYCLES CREATE DAMAGE TO SATELITES and endanger AIR TRAVEL
Sunspot cycles are very intense. There will be some satellite and ground tech erased because of huge coronal mass ejections. Be prepared.
14. Royal Pregnancy
Prince William and Kate will announce in summer. The Queen will have some health problems and take a short leave.
15. Summer Olympics see Terrorist attacks
There will be bombing and protests from the English and from terrorists in London with many injuries and hostage takings during the Olympics.
16. RELIGION
It may be Judgement day for some. Panic about Judgement Day, 2nd Coming. Religious zealots abound.
The Catholic Church and the Pope will be seen as shameful organizations more increasingly.
The nature of religion is shifting to immanent nature/pagan religious beliefs not authoritarian ones.
There will be Mass spiritual sightings of the Madonna, Christ, aliens.
The goddess is emerging as the New Religion.

Many of my published 2011 predictions came true:
I predicted the tsunami in Japan in the spring. “Let the revolutions begin worldwide .” was my tagline overview of 2011.
Overview:
2012 is NOT I repeat NOT the end of the world.
It will be filled with VERY dramatic highs and lows, as a new interface with a higher reality is manifesting but not everyone will see it. All may sense it on some level. There will be a lot of confusion as spiritual higher consciousness interfaces with our old brain consciousness.
2012 may be known as the Year of Spiritual manifestation. The Law of Attraction is all there is.
What you fear is what you get more of. How you feel in your heart authentically is what gets manifested.
Your inner self is reflected in your outer world, pretty or not. We are walking a razor’s edge. More people will be experiencing how we all magnetically attract our true inner self {Karma} in the outer material world and in our relationships. What you feel unconsciously is what you get. Really!

My advice is: Keep your charkas open, watch for the synchronicity as a map and use your Neti pot.
2012 is the year of VENUS as there will be a major astrological event as Venus crosses the Sun, a RARE one in a lifetime event, occurring on June 5/6. More about Venus on a separate page.
In spite of whatever numbers. 16 Billion year cycles, Calleman, John Major Jenkins, etc. with due respect to them. It is not really the official end of the Mayan calendar. I have deep insider information on this. Many people are using the end date to create fear and to exploit the very Mayans they seem to be applauding; it’s a type of Spiritual Y2K.
It’s merely the end of a 5,000-year cycle. It all depends on who your translator is. Besides a circular calendar never officially ends. The so-called Sun conjunct the Galactic Center actually takes place every year around Dec. 18 in Tropical Astrology. The alignment with the Galactic Center actually began in 1998 and continues on for some years, with the mid-point is around Dec 21 2012.
The winter Solstice date is already a source as an “end date” and also a new beginning, new date for higher conscious. Billions of people will be celebrating and participating, meditating. That’s all a good thing.
2012 will be a circus, literally. Cirque du Soleil is doing a big free show at Chichen Itza in Mexico on Dec 21 2012 which is exactly the symbol of what this date is all about EMBODIMENT. Cirque is partnering with a world wide non-profit. 2012 is all about embodying, spirit. Not ascending.

MANY BLESSINGS
Happy Hanukkah,Saturnalia,Solstice,Christmas,Kwanzaa from Tara Greene spiritual psychic
- Happy Hanukkah from Tara Greene
The Saturnalia was originally celebrated in Ancient Rome for only a day, but it was so popular it soon it lasted a week, despite Augustus’ efforts to reduce it to three days, and Caligula’s, to five. Like our Christmas, this important holy day was for more than fun and games. Saturnalia was a time to honor the god of sowing, and reaping, Saturn. But again, like our Christmas, it was also a festival day on which a public banquet was prepared. A statue of Saturn Lord of Time/ was usually bound in Rope but at his feast the statue was unbound.
Saturnalia Was the Best Part of the Roman Year
The poet Catullus describes Saturnalia as the best of days. It was a time of celebration, visits to friends, and gift-giving, particularly of wax candles (cerei), and earthenware figurines (sigillaria). The best part of the Saturnalia (for slaves) was the temporary reversal of roles. Masters served meals to their slaves who were permitted the unaccustomed luxuries of leisure and gambling. Clothing was relaxed and included the peaked woollen cap that symbolized the freed slave, which looks an awful lot like yuo know who’s peaked red hat . A member of the familia (family plus slaves) was appointed,” Lord of Misrule”.
Men were allowed to expres their homosexual feelings in public. There was a huge element of sature and FOOL-ery, or scapegoating.
Macrobius, in his Saturnalia, creates an imaginary symposium among pagan intellectuals in which he offers an explanation for the varying length of the holiday. Originally, it was celebrated on only one day, the fourteenth before the Kalends of January. With the reform of the Julian calendar, two days were added to December, and the Saturnalia was celebrated sixteen days before the Kalends (December 17), “with the result that, since the exact day was not commonly known—some observing the addition which Caesar had made to the calendar and others following the old usage—the festival came to be regarded as lasting for more days than one.
OPALIA = OPRAH
The original day now was given over to the Opalia, honoring Ops, who personified abundance and the fruits of the earth, and was the consort of Saturn. As the two deities represented the produce of the fields and orchards, so they also were thought to represent heaven and earth. It was for this reason, says Macrobius (I.10.20), that the two festivals were celebrated at the same time, the worshipers of Ops always sitting in prayer so that they touched the earth, mother of all.
I was struck with the etymological similie of Opalia, Goddess of abundance and Oprah’s name. Name destiny is very important signifier for me.
YULE Ancient Pagan/WICCAN Winter Solstice Festival is the basis for Xmas.
YULE, pronounced EWE-elle is the name for the shortest day of Light in the Year, the Winter Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere . It is when the dark half of the year dies to the light half. Starting the next morning at sunrise, the sun climbs just a little higher and stays a little longer in the sky each day. Known as Solstice Night, or the longest night of the year, the sun’s “rebirth” was celebrated with much joy. Oour ancestors celebrated the rebirth of the Oak King, the Sun King, giver of Life. From this day forward, the days would become longer. As the people participated in the mystique of the turning of the wheel of Life, their participation and prayers to honour this propituous time was all important. For if the Goddess did not bring rebirth to her Son the sun, and the Sun’s Light did not return then that signalled the death of all life on the earth.
Bonfires were lit in the fields, and crops and trees were ‘wassailed” with toasts of spiced cider. Children were escorted from house to house with gifts of clove spiked apples and oranges which were laid in baskets of evergreen boughs and wheat stalks dusted with flour. Apples and oranges represented the sun. The boughs symbolized immortality (evergreens were sacred to the Celts who worshipped trees, because they did not “die” thereby representing the eternal aspect of the Divine). The wheat stalks portrayed the harvest, and the flour was accomplishment of triumph, light, and life. Holly and ivy not only decorated the outside, but also the inside of homes, in hopes Nature Sprites would come and join the celebration. A sprig of Holly was kept near the door all year long as a constant invitation for good fortune to visit tthe residents. Mistletoe was also hung as decoration. It represented the seed of the Divine, and at Midwinter, the Druids would travel deep into the forest to harvest it.
The ceremonial Yule log was the highlight of the Solstice festival. Traditionally, the log must either have been harvested from the householder’s land, or given as a gift… it must never have been bought. Once dragged into the house and placed in the fireplace it was decorated in seasonal greenery, doused with cider or ale, and dusted with flour before set ablaze by a piece of last years log, (held onto for just this purpose). The log would burn throughout the night, then smolder for 12 days after before being ceremonially put out. Ash is the traditional wood of the Yule log. It is the sacred world tree of the Teutons, known as Yggdrasil. An herb of the Sun, Ash brings light into the hearth at the Solstice.
The World Tree, Yggdrasil is the one in which ODEN is suspended from inthe tarot Image of the HANGED MAN. This is where the Nordic RUNES came from.
Winter Solstice 2011
Winter Solstice 2011
DEC 21/22 2011 in Northern Hemisphere
The Winter solstice marks one of the 4 main quarters in the Year.
As such it can be used as a map to orient and plan the next 3 months of your and the world’s business with.
I’ve set the chart to Toronto Canada where I live it is different by 1 degree if the Solstice was created for Washington D.C.
This is a POWER-full solstice chart with the SUN conjunct PLUTO, yes Pluto is still considered to be extremely important to Astrologers as it rules the Soul, resurrecction, transformation, death and rebirth, wealth, garbage, the unconscious and the shadow.
The chart is literally a symbol of the SUN the source/King/Jesus/at the bottom quadrant of the chart in the house marked 3, cheek to cheek with, Pluto Lord of the Dark, Death, the Underworld on the other side of the fence so to speak, in the house marked 4,the house of the Unconsious. It’s a perfect alignment of what Solstice is all about!
The Moon is in late Scorpio and Scorpio is the sign of death, rebirth, transformation itself. Moo is Scorpio sugnifies this next 3 months as major EMOTIONAL rebirths. In the 2nd house it is also related to money, resources, tangible things, real estate, ergo the stock market.
MARKET VOLATILITY and the Sun represents GOLD and Gold may loose even more of its shine.
Venus planet of women,love, also money is at 1 degree of Aquarius indicating anew beginning in worldwide lobbying, protests, freedom fighting by women to revolutionize the world situation. Venus in the 4th house indicates freedom from old restirctions, agrass roots, home made revolution.
MERCURY is conjunct the North Node in SAGITTARIUS also in the 3rd house. Mercury planet of communications is urging you me and all of us to go to HIGHER LAW, what the Native Americans call SACRED LAW, as opposed to man-made laws. The 3rd house is all abuot comunications in your vicinity so the image of a LOCAL, higher truth, honesty,truth being mandated, lobbied, in the news. The North Node reporesents the highest spiritual goals. In Sagittarius this is the Sign of the Galactic Center and as we are only one year away from the DEC. 21 2012 date of the arising of higher consciousness, this is awonderful sign.
SATURN is in the 1st house at 27 degree of Libra indicating a seriousness, maturation, karmic, limitations, obstacles and a testing period throughout the next three months.
JUPITER is opposite Saturn at 00 degrees of TAURUS Rx. Jupiter is still Retrograde. But Jupiter Turns DIRECT on CHRISTMAS DAY. This is a beautiful and lovely gift of Jupiter to turn Direct motion on this day after moving backwards since June 2nd.
Jupiter in TAURUS is so simple down to earth, sensual, salt of the earth.
With Jupiter in Taurus it is about embodying and enjoying the fruits of the earth, appreciating food, the body andthe simple pleasures. Jupiter the Ancient Greek God Zeus, is also equated to Yahweh. Jupiter is bountiful, the law-giver the governer of Sacred LAw that we spoke about with the Mercury North Node Conjunction. Jupiter in Taurus helps us appreciate the simple things in life. It is grounding, rooting, conects us to the earth.
One other planets are also at ZERO degrees, URANUS the planet of revolution, invention, freedom, is at Zero degrees of Aries in the 6th house near the cusp or handle of the 7th house quadrant. URANUS has been a major player in 2011 inducing all the ARAB countries to incite revolution from dictators. This fomentation will continue for many years to come. Zero degrees Aries is one of the CARDINAL points in the year representing the degree of the Sun’s ingress at Spring into Aries.
NEPTUNE is stil conjunct to Chiron the Wounded Healer.
Neptune at 28 degrees of Aquarius, and Chiron whose symbol is a key at 1 degree of Aquarius have opened up the psychic telepathic buondaries for us all since 2010. In the 5th house that is reserved for the heart chakra, for the love of children, and creative self- expression it is a symbol of spirituality,losing of boundaries, kindness, reformation, organization, freedom,{ Neptune in Aquarius} healing from addictions { Chiron in Pisces}. We must act from our hearts, we must act to protect the child within and without, we are all ONE in spirit. Awakening from the addictions of illusion, drugs,religious ideas which separate and dominate, feeling our inter-connections.
Last but not Least MARS is in Virgo at 17 degrees in the 12 th house, which is the house of hidden enemies, self-undoing,karma,secrets, the Unconsious. Mars, God of War, in the last house, the house of spirituality, illusion and delusion, addictions in the workaholic, highly critical earth sign Virgo shows how the warmongers of the earth are operating behind the scenes, manipulating the workforces, the economy, the accounting system for their own selfish karmic reasons.
Mars in Virgo in the 12th is a dangerous enemy becuase he is wearing a cloak of INVISIBILITY,as he is dwelling in the house of the Unconscious. MArs in Virgo shows where and how we criticise ouselves and others. It is the blame game, lack of substantial confidence. Mars in Virgo is also fighting over earth’s natural resources. we shall see more of that in the next 3 months.

Mercury Retro- pre-Xmas Holiday Blues + Dec 10 Gemini Lunar Eclipse byTara Greene psychic Tarot spiritual adviser
I’ve got the Mercury Retrograde Blues…
This Mercury Retro during holiday season is enough to drive anyone a bit wacko. If you havent realized how late in the year it is its OK. Time has been getting faster and faster and most of us are in the same boat. Just wait to do whatever Holiday shopping until after Mercury planet of communications turns direct on Dec 13th @ 5:43 pm PDT. But again things wont be totally smooth in the communications dept. until Mercury gets back to where it was when it turned Retrograde at 20 degrees plus of Sagittarius on Jan 1st 2012.
MAKE YOUR NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS AFTER JAN 1ST! If you plan to get any results.
Dec 10 Lunar Eclipse Gemini Full Moon occurs @ 6:38 am PST/ 9:38 am EDT/ 2:38 pm GMT
watch the animation of it here. http://shadowandsubstance.com/
An Lunar Eclipse is a new beginning in emotional responses and instinctual habit patterns. The MOON rules the Unconscious,the shadows, the instincts,the people themselves. A Lunar eclipse is a SuPER DUPER FULL MOON. IT’s energy changes the fluctuations in the electro-magnetic fields. consciousness changes, old emotional programs can be erased. Eclipses mark important turning points and opportunities to grow.
Lunar Eclipses brings out SUPER werewolves, and makes you want to howl at the moon.
A Retrograde GEMINI LUNAR ECLIPSE is what this one is as Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and it is in RETROGRADE phase. Hmm. With the twins in shadow land this should be very interesting. It is considered to be a karmic phase as we are going over old ingrained conscious pattern of duality, separation, and oppositions. This is totally fitting after the 11:11:11 barely one month ago.
Squared by Mars in Virgo the sign which the Retrograde Mercury also rules. The message should be. OFF with yer head. That is forget all that head stuff, that Mercury rules and trust your guts totally. Mercury because of its retrograde influence will abide in Sagittarius sign of truth for doubly long a time moving through the arche from Nov 2 to JAn. 8 2012 which gives us an extra long time to expand out horizons, gallop off into the sunset, and grasp the higher truth, all with a sense of humour.
HI YO SILVER { moon}
An interesting light and shadow play. Get out the Indonesian shadow puppets to act this message out.
Gemini eclipse, twin shadows
Shadow means, you know all those disowned and projected out parts of ourselves that we haven’t integrated, blessed accepted or loved yet.
WHO GETS THE FULL IMPACT?
occurring at 18 degrees of Gemini, obviously Gemini’s, Sagittarius, Pisces and Virgo’s will feel the effects most. If your birthday occurs on or around Dec 10, June 10, March 10 or Sept 10. EFFECTS of eclipses lasts 6 ,months to one year. Also affects countries, cities, companies born inand around these dates.
Some countries which will be affected: These are their Independence Days:
June 6 SWEDEN. June 12 the PHILLIPINES get the direct Gemini Eclipse conjunction
FINLAND Dec 6. KAZHAKSTAN Dec 16. SOUTH KOREA on Dec 11 is the closest with the opposition.
NORTH KOREA on Sept 9, MACEDONIA, Sept. 8, NICARAGUA and GUATEMALA on Sept. 15, COSTA RICA sept 15,MEXICO Sept. 16 all get the Square from the Eclipse which applies pressure.
Watch all these countries issues to be front and centre in 2012.
NEPTUNE is I Tunes
Go to Neptune to try to tune in. The Mayan Calendar has ended already. It’s all about creating your own reality and opening up to Higher reality. Life is just a dream, so let Neptune be your guide.
Neptune is at 28 degrees of Aquarius, opposite the Fixed star Regulus which by the way has just entered VIRGO for the first time in 2,160 years!!!
REGULUS Aka ARCHANGEL RAPHAEL, healer of the Heart,
The “FIXED STAR” known as the Heart of the LIon, has moved out of LEO, and into Zero degrees of Virgo. directly opposite Neptune and Chiron the wounded Healer. More than the Mayan calendar in some ways a star ingressing into a new sign and element is a very big new show. A factual, real, verifiable, astronomically correct and approved one. OK OK this is Tropical astrology. It’s what most western astrologer use and it works.
URANUS the revolutionary planet who is behind the Arab spring is also still at that ZERO degree point of ARIES and will be Direct on Dec 9th just in time for the eclipse. Direct at Uranus, sounds a bit….
Jupiter is at ZERO degrees of TAURUS also Retrograde. Turning DIRECT on Christmas Eve, which is December 25 for the non Catholics and all you atheists. Jupiter rules the Sign of Sagittarius and Pisces traditionally.
Chiron just moved from ZERO degrees of PISCES on Dec 7th.
Saturn is opposite Jupiter during the eclipse, Saturn is at 26 degrees of Libra.
Mercury is at 4 degrees of Sagittarius having just crossed the Fixed Star Antares. Mercury the ruler of the eclipse is also squaring Uranus. Mercury is the earthy or real messenger, URANUS is considered to be the higher calling of Mercury, the Higher messenger, the one who takes you higher, the one who relates to quantum physics, future ideas, breakthroughs in consciousness.
So expect much more revolution,division, dissolving of boundaries both real and imagined.
ECLIPSES run in major cycles.
The last lunar eclipse closes to this degree was at 18 degrees 12 minutes of Sagittarius on December 9, 1992,the exact same degree as this one.
So where were you then? what was inspiring you then? what were your dreams and goals that you aspired to?
Dream bigger dreams with the Sun in Sagittarius, Tell the truth. Aim higher. Know you are connected to a much bigger Galactic Picture. Gemini is actually the principle of RELATIONSHIPS. seeming duality. The universe can’t know itself, experience itself if it can’t mirror back to itself. We are the very mirror of Universal Intelligence and Love. The Gemini eclipse point s the way for us to look deep into the mirror of Self in everything, every particle even in most of the dark matter in the Universe to find G*D our very Selves there and here. The twins, the polarity.
P.S. my husband, Artist Napoleon Brousseau pointed out today that we live in a bi-polar world, we have a North pole and a south pole. I know bi-polar is the “flavour of the month.” don’t worry about it. Don’t allow yourself to be labeled.
All is one. There is no other. no shadow.
Gemini Lunar Eclipse. says meditate on NON-DUALITY, on Self and other,

Thanksgiving,Solar Eclipse,Mercury Retrograde astrological advice by Tara Greene
11/22 2011
Numerology
We are one octave above the recent 11:11:11 which felt like a very profound shift in consciousness to me from my experience of it in Sedona Arizona, one of the major high spiritual energy places on the globe.
All doubled numbers are master numbers. 11 is the mirror, memory,
strength in the Tarot, the new soul. The initiate.
22 is the symbol of Enlightenment itself in the Tarot. Symbolized as both the zero point and the end point, the Alpha and the Omega, visualized by the 22nd Trump in the Tarot, The Fool, the wise one.
The # 22 is very special to me personally; it resonates with me for a number of reasons. More about that later.
THANKSGIVING
Always be grateful. The turkey was called the Ground eagle by native Americans. The Gobble gobble should be your mantra. Gobbledeygook is what’s resonating in my head right now.
Michael Shanks, former chairman to the National Consumer Council of Great Britain, characterizes professional gobbledygook as sloppy jargon intended to confuse nonspecialists:
- “Gobbledygook may indicate a failure to think clearly, a contempt for one’s clients, or more probably a mixture of both. A system that can’t or won’t communicate is not a safe basis for a democracy.”[3]
- Very timely advice.
- Ruminate on Gobble Gobble as a incoming vector from another dimension.
Sagittarius Solar Eclipse Nov 24-25
A partial solar eclipse, which will not be visible to most of us in the Northern Hemisphere occurring over the Antarctic.
Event though partial all Solar Eclipses are powerful New Moon turning points. The effects of an eclipse last long and are far reaching especially in a Sagittarius.
This New Moon is also the 6th and final Super Moon on 2011.
At 2 degrees and change of Fiery Sagittarius, the eclipse points literally as the Centaur points his arrows, to the Galactic Center, to higher truth, sacred law, freedom, the infinite, the beyond.
4 planets + the North Node all in Sagittarius
The Sun, Moon, North Node, Mercury, planet of communications just recently turned Retrograde yesterday and Venus, Herself just past the point of the Galactic center at 28 degrees of Sag. are all in the happy go lucky ready to trot sign. That’s 5 for FIRE.
The New moon chart includes an Earthy Grand Trine
Besides the quintuple Fire there’s also very earthy grounded Grand trine with Mars at 6 degrees of Virgo, Jupiter Retrograde at 1 degree of Taurus and Pluto at 6 degrees of Capricorn. Very nice energy for early degree of earthy signs.
JUPITER the ruling planet of Sagittarius leads the pack, although retrograde he always brings benefits and the auspicious Grand trine is like a presqua vu Santa Claus in dragon’s drag.
MARS is Squaring the sun and Moon, Jupiter quincunx’s the Sun and Moon. Something to do with analyzing and cleaning up your act to be sure. The message is to keep your hoofs firmly on the ground.
Speaking of Hooves,
CHIRON another famous Centaur known as the Wounded healer, is also at one degree of Pisces, squaring the Sun and Moon, and opposite Mars making what is called a mutable sign T-square which brings in compassion, healing, the ability to work on the issues diligently and have some earthy patience.
Sagittarius SOLAR ECLIPSE EFFECTS ON YOU
Wherever the sign of Sagittarius falls in your chart, even if you have no planets, angles or anything in Sagittarius, it exists in your chart, in your blueprint somewhere.
The 9th house of Sagittarius is the 3rd and final fire sign, is always honest, always adventurous, mystical, the traveler the wanderer, the seeker, the historian, the philosopher, the judge, the teacher, the mage, the good humoured, one who wants to understand everything in the Universe. Did we mention klutzy, omits details, a law unto themselves, hypocritical, judgemental, bored with earthy details, loves to travel, the exotic, impatient, doesn’t need to validate how or why they just Know, suffers from hoof in mouth disease?
Your sign’s Horoscopes. http://taratarotweb.tripod.com/id101.html

11:11:11 report from Sedona,Tara Greene psychic spiritual adviser
I journeyed to the magical red rock vortexes of Sedona Arizona along with many hundreds of other spritual seekers and other tourists who just happened to be here fot the event.
I arrived Nob. 8th which is the cross quarter day in the Amerindian sacred round of the year occupying the position of the North west on the wheel,
This is the place of karma and dharma the place of sacred magic ruled by the crow or raven, and in other teachings ve come across also symbolizes the Places of Power on the planet. Of which Sedona is well known, as well s the pyramids, Mt. Shasta, Lake Titicaca, Tibet etc.
It snowed the day before, and I heard the road up to Flagstaff was closed done. The 13 crystal skulls from Mayan legend, or facsimiles were brought to Sedona on the 7th and there were supposed to be ceremonies and 400 peopple showed up. But I heard that no ceremonies occurred. Drunvalo Melchizadek was on hand though.
There were many workshops,talks,lectures, info sessions,preparations going on by various and sundry spiritual groups and individuals: Chakra tours, DNA strand activations, ascention preparations, meditations, body work, vortex tours, weddings, chakra balancings, UFO sightings, crop circle info. exchanged, metaphysical music, sound healing performances, sweat lodges, horse back rides, clearings, past life channelings, Arcutrian, Lemurian, Atlantean, Sirian, Pleaidian, Zeta Reticuli, 10th dimensional, 9th Dimensional, walk-ins, NDE exchanges, Burning man devotees, John of God followers, Dahwn yoga,angelic messngers,deep trance, crystal healing beds, aromatherapy, hypnotherapy, rolfing,dancing, drumming,camping out, yoga, trance dancing,Kabbalah, Astrology, synchonicities, healings, searches for the Holy Grail, raw foodies, organic everything, arts and Mary Magdalen’s name bantered around everywhere. MM knows everyone in town here.
Nov. 8th I am a bit jet legged upon arriving. Check in at the Super 8. Symbolizes Super Infinity. My friend Jospeph-Mark a Kabbalistic Astrologer and scholar of many metaphysical mediums from Nelson british Columbia comes to fetch me as I don’t drive due to an unusual visual perceptual issue.
11:11:11 goings on in Sedona
OUr 11:11:11 ceremony was on Shnebley Road, by the area called cow pies. We created a tree of Life. set alcohol on each Sephiroth to make elixers with after. Did prayers. Circumnabulated the Tree 33 times in Total, Prayed in Hebrew, English, Sanskrit Sang, danced, It was joyfull. A couple was getting married off in the distance.
Spirit flattens me but angels save me
Our 2nd cermeony of the day occurred in Fay Canyon off of Boynton canyon. There is an arch or cave up a pretty steep climb. Some women came by to our ceremony where there was a natural mesa, we used herkimmer diamond crystals, and charged more alcohol for elixiers. Apparently this cave has Arcturian enegies. I had brought my Medicine Pipe and did an Native American Ceremony and prayers off to the side. After my cermeony as I was getting ready to walk down from the cave I suddenly fell, it was so fast, I landed flat on my face. I couldnt believe it, There I was face down eating that famous red rock dust and praying that my teo front teeth didnt get knocked out. And of course i am wondering what the heck was that? I had broked my fall with my hand and there was a little bleeding and I had a fat lip but seemed miraculously to be relatively unharmed. I was helped down by a nice man with climbing poles. I realized afterwards just how lucky I was and truly felt protected by the many many angels that are all around me now.
The woman who found the Holy Grail
Part 3 of my 11:11:11 involved a woman who had come to speak with my freind Jospeh MArk about his Kabbalistic and esoteric knowledge, We went to his freinds house and waited for peopple to show up for a talk he had intended to give. This lady claimed she had actually found the Holy Grail in Wales, it was an olive wood cup, traditionally used for wine in Sabbath ceremonies. She said it had been kept secret but that the crown of England had extensive documentation in secret of the healings that had been associated with people who touched it or who drank water form it. As hse told her story I could see and feel the energy as she told us about the miracle of the ever replenishing waters and how drinking from the Holy Grail made her a total lover and knower that there is only One Unity,no duality.
Well that is what the 11:11:11 energies are all about
She gave me a hug and I felt that christ like energy of enlightenment, divine love and acceptance come through her. It was excilerating.
NOv. 12
I go to have a special treatment on a chakra lazer bed. This is form the John of God healing center I believe. I had tried this treatment a few days ago and liked it. I immediately saw visions of the Goddess Isis as I lay on the bed.
This time I needed more time and was given an hour but was going so deep I asked for more time. I spent one and a half hours on that bed. It opens one;s chakra’s. Answers your intentions, I was given some specificinformtion.
Following a flyer we found at the Health Food Store,later we ended up at the Sedona High School where there was a special performance of dancing drumming and a Meditation Teacher who we didnt know anything about.
The teacher is a Korean breath teacher Ilchi Lee, a famous Dahn yoga instructir who has livedin Sedona for 15 years. He showed this amazing video which showed the benefits of breathing techniques. Here is a sample of this awesome footage of russian freestyle diver with Beluga whales insub zero waters swimming naked.
There were 3 big busloads of Korean tourists i think who drove in to watch this famous unbeknownst to us, cultish leader, he was fun.
One ting after another, people would show up to lead me or to absolutely synchronize into the flow of the ocnversation.
