Aquarius eccentric, Non eclipse, Full Moon

August 18th Full Moon is eccentric, electric shocking and awesome.

Aug. 18 @ 2:26 am PDT/ 5:26 am EDT/ 9:26 am GMT/5:26 pm Beijing 

ATHENA Goddess of War and strategy is conjunct the electric Moon, both are sextiling  {60 degrees} ERIS, the Goddess of Discord, conjunct URANUS @ 23-24 ARIES. The planet of weirdness URANUS governs this Aquarius Moon in Modern rulerships. They all form a FINGER OF GOD to MERCURY and JUPITER in VIRGO. 

This YOD or FOG indicates we must take stock, be grounded, rooted to our common sense, to what “grows corn” and stay accountable at this time of Great change. 

THERE IS NO eclipse today. Check out NASA links below. The current media manipulation psycho-babble looks for anything to promote non-news. The phony promotion of an eclipse that does not really exist speaks volumes about EXACTLY the energies we are under, called Saturn square NEPTUNE in Astrology. The Emperor is NOT wearing any clothes. This is a total hallucination and projection. I am pinching you to WTFU. 

AQUARIUS is the sign of Freedom, revolutionaries, higher consciousness and collectivity.

FREE your mind. Go to a higher consciousness perspective. Get enlightened. Be eccentric. Be you.  In the TAROT, AQUARIUS is symbolized by the STAR #17. 

ATHENA, the Goddess of wisdom conjoins the MOON very closely. She is a strategic Goddess, a fighter for truth and freedom as she fought as an AMAZON against the Patriarchy. She is also known as MINERVA and she is shown with an owl of wisdom on her shoulder. OWLS are harbingers of death as predatory birds and feared in some cultures. Owls symbolize the gift of night vision and bring dreams as well.

Definitely call upon ATHENA to guide you to envision truth and have night vision. 

Aquarius is the opposite of Leo where the SUN is, symbolizes sharing the power, realizing that we are all one big brain, one consciousness. Aquarius Full Moons asks you to gather with your higher vibe tribe.

Leo rules the Heart, and we need to balance our hearts knowledge with objective AIRY wisdom as well. We need to do both, anchor from our hearts and give our need for power and egotism away to share our heart wisdom together.

The beautiful VENUS PLUTO trine is in effect and will be until the 22nd when Venus moves out of orb. This is very beneficial for women, for bringing out ancient taboos, and is mirrored in the Chinese Olympic swimmer Fu Yuanhui telling the world that she was having her period,but that it was no excuse for only getting a Bronze medal. Fu is being hailed as a feminist leader in the world. See link below.

There is a powerful GRAND WATER TRINE 

VESTA in CANCER trines JUNO in SCORPIO which trines NEPTUNE conjunct the SOUTH NODE in PISCES. 

A powerful pyramid of Goddesses joins their energies to release {the South Node} old illusions, projections, and martyrdom for women.   This Full Moon which always symbolizes the pulling on the heart strings of our emotions may feel very emotional. Let the tears and feelings flow. Release old concepts and illusions and old addictions. Release the past. 

MERCURY and JUPITER conjunct in VIRGO oppose CHIRON in PISCES and INCONJUNCT the MOON

The Messenger of the Gods and the Great God JUPITER himself face off with the great wounded healing shaman CHIRON. Jupiter exaggerates everything he comes in contact with blowing them up and enLARGEING them. A tempest in a teapot? A hypochondriac breakdown? An environmental crisis? A big paradox breakdown in quantum physics or religion? The flaw in the IRA/ banking system goes down?  A very big politician could GO DOWN big time over this next lunar cycle and be finally held accountable for past actions especially those related to TAXES or other information secrets,especially if they have planets around 18- 29 degrees VIRGO or PISCES, GEMINI or SAGITTARIUS.  

This can also symbolize a grassroots Virgo organization or individual blowing the whistle which destroys many illusions of what the system is all about.  A certain politician { Jupiter governs politics} or media mogul, announcer or prominent person could be uplifted by speaking the truth, also Jupiter. This can also symbolize an environmental watchtower or individual blowing the whistle which destroys many illusions of what the system is all about.  It will hurt to get to the truth but is part of the healing process.

Don’t gloss over any of the details. Mercury and Jupiter are extremely fastidious, accountable, nit-picky, hygienic, orderly, intellectual, perfectionist.  They symbolize constant worry about the imperfections of life. VIRGO’s are very strongly affected by this aspect as are Pisces Sagittarius and GEMINI. Clean up your acts. The inconjunct to the Moon indicates an intellectual/ grounded, head detached from the body/ “nutty professor” kind of energy. Stay grounded. keep it real. 

MERCURY moving slowly, preparing to RETROGRADE on August 30 conjuncts JUPITER exactly Aug 22 @ 26 degrees Virgo squaring the GALACTIC CENTER. This can be a very inspiring metaphysical day and great for meditating. 

SATURN in SAGITTARIUS is conjunct MARS on ANTARES squaring NEPTUNE in PISCES speaking of keeping it real.

Saturn and MARS make difficult partners and they speed up the head banging process between the aggressive fighting nature and the more spiritual we are all in this together PISCES camp. There is going to be accelerated action and a period of impulsive actions from frustration between races and religions. Expect more shooting of Muslims and vice versa. Tempers and limitation are high. Religious freedoms are going to be ending if it takes a police state to do it. This is already happening in the U.S. The overly liberal age is over especially in America.  Saturn represents prisons. Maintaining boundaries between very different and antagonist world views and cultures.  This will happen in England in Europe. Saturn in Sagittarius symbolizes foreign religions. Saturn is approaching the place where Pluto was at 9/11.

The two most Malefic planets tangoing away in Sagittarius for awhile indicates a deep desire for truth, for busting up the Military’s secrets, the war machines workings. Saturn is close to the U.S. ASCENDANT which is being squared by planet NEPTUNE at 11 degrees PISCES and VENUS in Virgo.  

This indicates a change in the world’s view of the U.S.’s reputation, its’ history and the lies it has promulgated about most of its intervention into foreign countries, Iraq,Vietnam, Columbia, Argentina, Afghanistan, Syria, etc. because they are trying to strategically control the oil, or to control surreptitiously the drugs, the poppy fields, for their own need for power and control. That is what Saturn square Neptune is all about in the big worldly place..

On a personal level, SAGITTARIUS who have planets at 1-14 degrees can be very angry, frustrated, driven, passionate, longing to travel, to tell the truth even if they make it worse for themselves.  This aspect can also bring major disillusions in looking honestly at false love affairs based on illusion, drama, projection, addictions, co-dependence and martyrdom. This is a good and healthy thing.
