HAPPY EQUINOX /MABON One of the 4 major turning points in the year.

Equinox, how to balance during intense times

The 2nd Equinox of the year is here as day and night are equal. The SUN enters the sign of LIBRA which marks Autumn’s beginning here in the Northern Hemisphere and Spring down under.  

The EQUINOX the only one of two days in the year to have equal day and night. This is so important when you think about it. Everywhere on earth there is the same amount of light and darkness today. It is the start of Autumn in the Northern Hemisphere and Spring in the Southern. The days are getting shorter here in the North and we are in the Feminine yin time of year. We are going into the death and sleep part of the natural year here in the North while our southern neighbors will begin to see spring. 

A number of festivals in different major religions are being celebrated as well starting on yesterday’s New moon. It is the Jewish New Year 5778 years. It also coincides with Islamic New Year which is rare. To all my family friends and clients Happy New Year.

Happy MABON Wiccan Pagan Celtic Ancient 8 wheel of the year turning point. The third major season in a Natural Year starts with Spring. This is the element of AIR, detachment, communications-while Mercury is Retrograde at 0 degrees LIBRA conjunct the SUN a few hours after Equinox/

It’s LIBRA TIME. This is one of the Major Cardinal turning points of the year. 

LIBRA is the sign of RELATIONSHIPS marriage traditionally. It is the sign of Karmic JUSTICE in the TAROT #8 begins the next three months journey. 

It’s very important to focus on walking a balanced life in all ways: in our spiritual mental emotional and physical ways. Examine what you need to bring more balance into your life.It’s a pleasant socializing time. Up here in the North, as it gets colder and darker socializing is what helped our ancestors to stay alive. Get out and communicate network and engage. Libra is ruled by VENUS and she is in diligent Virgo where she practical earthy organizing working and paying attention to health community pets and perfection. This is a good time to start yoga or change your diet as the seasons change. Venus in Virgo’s shadow is criticism. The need for balancing this is vital now.

his is one of the most powerful of the 4 CARDINAL entry points in the year and it marks the conditions for the next three months. It’s important to study the Sun’s entry into LIBRA at 6:04 pm PDT/ 9:04 pm EDT/ September 23 at 1:04 am GMT.

Physically, and spiritually this day marks the balance and necessary complementary polarity of all things in this Universe,  day, night, yin, yang, and positive and negative. 

Autumn Equinox is called MABON in the pagan tradition.  So Happy MABON, corn dollies are made and thanksgiving for the harvest. 

AUTUMN begins in the Northern Hemisphere and SPRING in the Southern Hemisphere. It is the WESTERLY pole of the 2 days of complete Balance between day and night in the entire year.

LIBRA is the SCALES of JUSTICE    

LIbra the constellation, not to be confused with the SIGN of Libra was associated in Antiquity with the Egyptian Goddess of JUSTICE -MAAT

THE EGYPTIAN GODDESS MAAT

Weighs the heart against her ostrich feather in the Hall of Judgement After death

After death the heart of the deceased was weighed against her pure white ostrich feather diadem. If one’s heart was heavier than her feather, then the deceased would return to life on earth until one’s heart was light, balanced with no regrets.

I always loved that story.

this is MABON, in Celtic nature celebrations. A great time to honor this change in seasons with a ceremony. Create an altar and put fruits and leaves as gratitude. Use fall colors and say prayers and intentions for what you will create over the next quarter.

Famous, and rightly so Indian yogi YOGANANDA stated that the best time to start practicing meditation was on Libra Equinox or Aries equinox.

What was born at spring as a seed, an idea, has grown to fruition, seeded itself again and is ready to be harvested and then die to be returned to the earth for renewal, to feed new life next Spring, and on and on. Think about where you were 6 months ago. What has transpired in your life?

I led a lovely Spring Equinocsceremony at Lake Ontario because my son Elijah asked me to because he knows doing rituals is what I love. There is a photograph od it on my Instagram account from March 20. We had a lovely gathering of friends and friends of friends as our cat Gala was dying. She died after midnight on March 21.

LIBRA is the sign of relationships, the 7th house marriage traditionally in Astrology

LIBRA is ruled by the Goddess of LOVE VENUS of course,

Where is VENUS in your natal chart? Where is the sign of LIBRA?  What does your 7th house of marriage/committed relationships hold or lacks planetary energy?

AUTUMN EQUINOX/SPRING EQUINOX
is a power GATE, one of the 4 main CARDINAL gates of the year.

 We are entering the Time of increasing DARKNESS here in the NORTH. I will have to be a NORTHIST here and speak of the Northern Hemisphere which I am more familiar with.

AUTUMN EQUINOX marks the start of deepening and entering into the DEEP FEMININE dark and mysterious months ahead. This is a time of hibernation, rest and reflection as Nature sleeps until spring awakens life again.

A time to tune into our dreams much more especially when JUPITER re-enters PISCES the sign it rules from October 27/28 until December 20 the day before the Winter solstice Capricorn ingress point. I will be doing an 8 week online DREAM HEALING TEMPLE course. Stay tuned for that. $222 for the 8 week live course.

LIBRA EQUINOX celebrates the marriage and equality of all and the complementary polarities.

Celebrate the integration of the Masculine into the Feminine and vice versa.

It’s Sacred MARRIAGE time.

At Autumn Equinox we give thanks to the Sun and the EARTH and for the harvest of foods that will help us survive the long cold bare Winter months. We welcome the beautiful colours of leaves magically metamorphosing from green to orange, gold, yellow, red, and brown. autumn. We frolic in the mounds of soft crunchy leaves. We honor change, life, and death.  

We surrender what no longer serves us, we surrender to old age, to letting go, to facing death as a necessary part of life, another pregnancy. We face the unknown of the harsh months of winter coming. We pray that we and our loved ones will be kept safe and sound by the Love and Blessings of the Goddess, that we may survive to see the birth of the LIGHT at Winter Solstice.

Wands are fire, inspiration, passion, action, anger, energy. 

There are choices to be made about where you put your  energy and your passions. The two’s follow the initial spark of the Aces, there may be a lot of debating before the choice is made. 

You must balance the twin sides of your nature and desire. They may seem opposed but they are part of a whole.

Inspirational Card of the DAY, 2 of cups,receive blessings Astrololgy

Roots of Asia Tarot 2 of Cups

Lets say this a  two day card because I have been sick and didn’t get my Sunday April 28 card out. SO lets say a Sunday and Monday card or do you want an extra card?

This is a very interesting 2 of cups card from the Roots of Asia Tarot.

Most 2 of cups Tarot cards are about partnership, love, personal romance. And all of that applies here. 2 of cups water

Blossoming relationships, balanced emotions, choices in sharing emotions.

This images is very cosmic. The VAULT or Cup of Heaven is pouring down its blessings upon those who are open to receive. The “other” on the earth plane is moving up to meet the Beloved at the balance point, where the two cups meet.

An as above so below 2 of cups.

Astrology correspondence is VENUS in CANCER

Venus is LOVE and CANCER is the sign of  nurturing, safety, emotional security, home, receptivity.

Venus will enter Cancer on June 2 this year.

So perhaps this is a feel ahead prophecy card.

OPEN TO LOVE, give it and receive it in equal measure.

How is your love life these days? Topsy-turvy or smooth and balanced?

Cancer I find has trouble receiving. Where is Cancer in your Natal chart?

How open are you to receive and give equally?

The astrology chart is set for WASHINGTON D.C.

This chart symbolizes events over the next 3 months.

With a SCORPIO Ascendant at the middle degrees this indicates a powerful time of deep intense change and transformation over the next three months. Power struggles, control issues, obsession, secrets, ruthlessness, the shadow, death, rebirth, transformation. Scorpio energy is of the 8th house influences of money finances, other people’s wealth. Expect the economy to tank.

MARS ruler of Scorpio in the 1st house and NORTH NODE there to, indicates a willful aggressive warlike defenses. Increasing assertiveness, compulsive anger,power struggles,Plutocracy.

MOON is RIGHT on the GALACTIC CENTRE

the moods, emotions, unconscious, WOMEN, the MOON represents the people collectively is aiming high and to the CENTER, the source the Heart of the Great Mother, the cosmic Vagina,the womb and tomb, the Galactic Gateway. Stay totally fixed and optimistic that collectively we are returning HOME. In the 2nd house this is the only true worth, the goal, the gelt, the riches as Pluto is also here in the 2nd house, symbolizing the world soul embodied.

PLUTO is the centre point of a T-square with URANUS Retrograde at 6 degrees of ARIES and MERCURY at 9 degrees of LIBRA. Here’s a poetic way to view the URANUS PLUTO Square to MERCURY.

“ And once the storm is over you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, in fact, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about.”
~ Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore

SUN also opposes URANUS and Squares PLUTO- approaching

OUR consciousness is about to be right-angled and square danced upon!

Saturn is in the 12th house,at 28 degrees + almost on that FATEFUL degree, ending his three-year soft journey where he’s been EXALTED and exalting us with balance and testing LIBRA”s , relationships, diplomacy and the law. This is a major turning point.

SATURN enters SCORPIO on OCTOBER 5th and everything is coming up SCORPIO- will finish writing that article soon.

Saturn in the 12th is karma, the obstacle and reality check is buried in your unconscious and the shadow is running the show.SAturn tests us all, what you have sown, so you shall reap. A cycle is ending.

NEPTUNE and CHIRON are still doing their cheek to cheek in PISCES NEPTUNE at zero degrees resetting himself for the great launch for the next 14 years, a half a Saturn cycle. NEPTUNE in PISCES illusion delusion addictions glamour Hollywood credit cards, martyrdom, endings, the oceans, oil, art, soul mates, ONENESS, Bliss spirituality, dreams, ephemera, psychic energy, creativity, merging, endings.

CHIRON is helping out. If you have planets in early Sagittarius, Gemini and VIRGO YOU are feeling extra vulnerable and unsure of yourself. YOu are being transformed into the wounded healer by experience now. This will continue.The healing is in the wound.

JUPITER  at 16 degrees of GEMINI is weakened but still happy chatty upbeat ready to try new ideas. Jupiter TRINES Mercury at 9 degrees of LIBRA bringing charm and balance.

VENUS is the planet at the top of the chart the highest elevated and so she rules by position alone. VENUS in LEO is the QUEEN in purple furs and gaudy bejeweled crown. SHE is the undisputed QUEEN, as she rules the SUN.

 VENUS in LEO is all heart, all generosity, proud, daring, courageous, Loves whole heartedly and passionately. Wears red dances on tables, demonstrates her feelings is childlike, playful, commands respect. She is a lioness, a strong leader, protects her cubs fiercely. She is sinuous sensuous beautiful wild and answers to NO MAN. She is strong, agile, walks on silent cat paws, mysterious, hypnotic, instinctual,charismatic, big hearted, creative.

WOMAN you MUST roar! NOW!

For your rights to be FREE, to hunt when you want, to have cubs when you want, to uphold feminine feline instinctual wisdom!!!

Venus in LEO is the heart ruling ALL.

As we head towards the fateful Dec 21 2012

the spiritual teachers I respect are all saying it is the end of the PATRIARCHAL split and the Birth of a New Divine FEMININE age.

Drunvalo Melchizedek states in his Book 2012 Serpent of LIGHT

that the head of the serpent the KUNDALINI energy of the earth has shifted as it does every 13,000 years. IT has moved to SOUTH America to PERU/ BOLIVIA away from TIBET where it was for the past 13,000 years. The GODDESS the PRIMA FEMININE begins to energize all life on earth once more. We ar being brought back into the belly and womb of the GREAT MOTHER. we are moving into the PHOTON band totally away from the age of Darkness humanity has been endarkend by for this past age.

 We ar back where we began 25,000 year sago when those beautiful drawings of the caves of Lascaux France were painted.  We are sacred primal artists again, worshipping the mother and the SOURCE We are co-creators..

SO MOTE IT BE!
