What the Goddesses can teach you, Astrology with Tara Greene

The Divine Feminine Goddess Archetype is returning and both women and men need to listen to Her wisdom in your daily life. She exists in a multitude of  forms. In your astrology chartshe is  represented by  4 main asteroid Goddess, Ceres/Demeter to the Greeks,  Athena, Vesta and Juno/Hera in Roman, as Lilith the Dark Moon Goddess she is like Kali the destructive one,and as  Eris the newly discovered minor planet of Discord. We’ll leave Eris to another time.

LILITH- the First Woman, pre Eve, NATURE herself , the rejected independent destroying Goddess, has returned to bring us lessons about respecting women or enduring her fury. She has been prominent in the last year as she’s been dancing cheek to cheek with Jupiter in Cancer, Notice lots of flooding in the world?

The past NEW MOON in Leo Aug 6 had Jupiter conjunct Lillith in Cancer and Athena goddess of war and wisdom also flanking  Jupiter with CERES the MOther goddess archetype nearby in Leo.

Athena Goddess of War and wisdom Patroness of Athens Greece

VESTA, the Goddess of focus, divine service and sexual healing,  was exactly conjunct the Sun and Moon. JUNO the Goddess of marriage,partnership and commitment  was opposite Vesta in Aquarius. Career or family dilemma’s?

The Goddess is known by  hundreds of names and attributes. She was and is the original human and spiritual connection for every human who  ever lived. We are all born of woman. SHE has been dormant for the last 5,000 years as Patriarchy moved in and took over religion society and culture of the world and sought to suppress HER.  Goddess worshippers were forced to go underground as the Catholic Church tortured and burned nine million mainly women, children and men they suspected of being “witches” which meant Goddess worshippers, pagans,  midwives, herbalists, or any old women whose property the Church wanted, for over 300 years in Europe and in America.

I remember being burned at the stake with my husband and two children watching me. It was horrible. Most people alive today have reincarnated and unconsciously remember their torture and the hate crimes inflicted by the Church on them. That is why they have largely turned away from the church’s doctrine and practice freedom from organized religion and  tolerance for gays. Doing so means we are spiritually evolving from the past. Does this resonate with you?

The Divine Mother Archetype never passed out of cultural worship with pagans, and indigenous Native cultures everywhere. In Peru,  she is known as PACHAMAMMA, the Earth, even though most Indigenous people were converted to Christianity. The Virgin Mary is the Christian Church’s adaptation of the Divine Mother, largely stripped of any Goddess like  power. The Goddess is well known in India, as Shakti, Lakshmi, Saraswati, Kali and many more. In China, she is known as Qwan Yin Goddess of Mercy. In Tibet she is worshipped as Tara in her many aspects or as Dakini’s- female Goddesses. She is White Buffallo  Woman, Pele in Hawaii, The Fairy Godmother and the evil witch in Fairy Tales.

Sarasvati Hindu Goddess of Love and Creativity

As Demetra George pointed out in her groundbreaking book Asteroid Goddesses, the Goddess went into her own DARK MOON phase, where she removed Herself from consciousness for the last two precession’s of  Constellation cycles, from Taurus the Age of Bull Worship, to Aries the worship of the Ram- the Jewish people’s symbol, to Pisces in the last 2,000 years, Christs’ symbol is the fish.

We need to understand their Feminine strengths, powers and how they affect us personally.  Most people are just learning about them in  astrology. I recently presented an Asteroid Goddess Workshop at the Grail Lady Faire in Bancroft in June. I told the tales of each Goddess and led the participants in a Guided meditation. 

 Vesta conjunct the New moon in LEo ignites our passion to inVEST in ourselves. YEs your money honors the Goddess. She is Virgin in that she belongs to no man. VEsta works with Tantric sexual energy.She is associated with the signs of  VIRGO and SCORPIO.

CERES by Watteau Great Mother 

CERES the Great Mother in LEO also shows us the way to honour the LIGHT,the Source, that we all have. We all came from Heaven it was called our mother’s body. CERES  is nurturing, home, food, the Mother sacrificing for her daughter/children.

JUNO opposite that,is the wife of Zeus {Hera} who he constantly betrayed and cheated on.  As such she is till unconsciously angry and her anger needs to be brought into out hearts {LEO} honored, and made whole, healed and become confident again.

Find out where your asteroid Goddess are in your Natal Horoscope yields valuable lessons. The Asteroids can help you tap into your past life memories. This helps enormously to open up karmic wounds faster and enable you to let go, find your purpose and mission in life.

I have VESTA conjunct my SOUTH NODe in Virgo, a sign she is associated with as well as Scorpio. I have remembered my past lives as a priestess of the Goddess, serving as a sacred Tantric priestess since my earliest memories. I found out the connection years and years later much to my surprise.
