September rare Sacred Geometry stars

September 2017 features a RARE 6 pointed SACRED GEOMETRY all month!

This configuration is created between the planets stars and the Nodes of the Moon which was in place widely at the TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE of AUGUST 21. It is focussed  stronger now at the Pisces Full Moon and will continue to guide us through the next New Moon in VIRGO Sept 19-20 and the EQUINOX September 22/23 until the end of September.  This is a very long time for this aspect to be in place. 

As the planets are always in constant motion the 6 pointed MERKABAH or Solomon’s Seal is a very potent magical symbolscape to work with. 

The ancient 6 pointed star represents the “AS ABOVE SO BELOW” Hermetic wisdom of Thoth or Hermes Trismegistus or Mercury the ancient wisdom teacher of Egypt. Most people associate this symbol with the Jewish people but they borrowed it from ancient India and Egypt and took it on as their own symbol. 

In the TAROT the #6 is at the very center of the Tree of Life called Tifferet. In the TAROT the Arcana is THE LOVERS. 

The Merkabah symbolizes  the interconnection and balance between Heaven and Earth within our own masculine and feminine sides. Why is it so important?

The Universe is conscious and  mirrors back to us synchronous signs all the time. This is a Rare and very long constant guiding STAR to help us activate the Divine Love that is the very nature of the Cosmos. 

Composed of a GRAND FIRE TRINE with planets/Node in ARIES LEO and SAGITTARIUS and a GRAND AIR TRINE of planets Node and a Star in GEMINI LIBRA and AQUARIUS this is a Masculine active Merkabah energy. 

Created by the 6 sextiles -60 degree angle aspects between

The NORTH NODE in LEO @ 24 degrees sextiling JUPITER in LIBRA @ 23 degrees.

sextiling SATURN in SAGITTARIUS @ 21 degrees

sextiling the SOUTH NODE of the Moon at 24 degrees AQUARIUS

sextiling ERIS @ 23 degrees ARIES and URANUS Rx @ 28 degrees ARIES

sextiling POLARIS the NORTH  STAR @ 28 degrees GEMINI

which completes the 6 pointed star as it sextiles the North Node in Leo. 

The 6 pointed star didn’t leap out at me until I realized that the invisible point was POLARIS our current North pole Star. The term NORTH STAR symbolizes humanities greatest guide as North always symbolizes higher wisdom. The Chinese considered Polaris to be ” the great honorable Lord of the Heavens” according to Fixed Stars and Their Interpretation by Elsbeth Ebertin 1971 pg. 28. 

VENUS the GODDDESS of LOVE strengthens the STAR September 12th-17/18th 

Venus entering the configuration will further strengthen and amp up the love. Be sure to tune into this aspect from the 12-17th and MEDITATE every day for at least 12 minutes on this aspect. The cosmic energies available will be powerful for those who do. I will set up a world-wide meditation page on FB as I feel called to do a live ZOOM meditation STAY TUNED> 

September 12th Venus in LEO trines SATURN

September 14 VENUS conjuncts the NORTH NODE and trines ERIS in ARIES

September 15th Venus sextiles JUPITER

September 17th/18th when Venus TRINES URANUS along with the MOON. 

Everytime the Moon passes through ARIES GEMINI LEO LIBRA SAGITTARIUS or AQUARIUS it brings added emotional connectivity to the star formation.

Sept 8 Moon trines Saturn Sept 9 Moon trines Mercury in LEO at the 29th degree.

Sept. 13 the GEMINI MOON adds its energy and influence.

Sept.17th the LEO MOON amps up the fire power

Sept.  22nd LIBRA MOON joins in.

Sept. 27th SAGITTARIUS Moon adds its fire power. 

We need to have as many Lightworkers and conscious seekers aligned to this SACRED MARRIAGE Symbol cosmic guidance now to help bring about the balance of the Masculine and Feminine within ourselves which is so desperately needed to bring balance into the world.

Look at where each of the 6 points of the star falls in your own astrology chart to see what each planet Node or star has to offer and to ground its energy into your own physical spiritual mental emotional body.

In spite of all the crazy tempestuous energy going on around the world literally and tragically with record setting Hurricanes in the U.S. and the Caribbean and in India Bangladesh and Nepal and other political and environmental struggles this sign is a very positive sign from the Heavens.  

Please join in to align yourself with the perfect symetry and synchronicity of Divine Guidance Divine Timing and Divine Love that the cosmos is bequeathing us with. As above so below so within and so all around.

Post full moon, Cocky Chinese Fire Rooster year

This full Moon Grand Cardinal cross is making me feel very tired. Plus that sweet Venus-Neptune conjunction is calling me to dreamland. I don’t know about you. 

The Moon enters LEO Jan 12 later in the afternoon. Mercury re-enters serious Capricorn. Your words must bear weight and gravitas. Walk your talk.

Leo Moon inconjuncts Mercury soon 

Ego battles abound. Don’t take any of it too seriously.

I just looked ahead through 2017 and went OY SATURN enters HIS OWN HOUSE on Dec 19 two days before Winter Solstice. Yikes. Better get yer yah yah’s on now with Saturn in an upbeat positive, good-humored sign. Saturn in SAGITTARIUS insists on honesty, justice, inspiration, truth. The next 2.5 years 2018-2020 ish with Saturn in his own sign will be HARD. Difficult, entrenched, power battles, conservative, testing. It will be because “i say it is.” Life will be a test on every level. Life may be a  struggle for the bare necessities.

So enjoy the NOW, it isn’t all that pretty I know on many levels. Stay optimistic. 

The CHINESE FIRE ROOSTER YEAR begins on the New Moon in Aquarius on the 27/28th in Beijing and celebrations continue for over a week.

If you were born in 2005, 1993, 1981, 1969, 1957, 1945, you were born in a Rooster year. The last FIRE Element rooster year was in 1957. 

By crowing daily at dawn. Rooster is a herald, who chases away evil spirits. The Chinese pay the rooster much respect. He is considered to be the mascot of the five virtues- civil responsibility, marital fidelity, courage kindness, and confidence. 

Roosters are considered to be psychic birds. According to Chinese astrology, the constellation Orion has a Rooster companion that communicates messages to the Gods.  Rooster divination (Alectryomancy – also called alectoromancy or alectoromancy) evolved by watching which grains a rooster pecked, timing, order etc. 

Rooster’s powerful voices symbolizes the ability we all have to be proud and to crow our message. Don’t be shy about speaking out for what is important to you this year. 

Various traditions regard Rooster’s in high regard. The rooster’s spirit draws good luck, prosperity and overall health to both you and your situation or projects.

This is a strong willed independent cocky year. Roosters are proud, hard working, controlling, punctual, and responsible. They are fiercely competitive. Very much like Donald Trump who isn’t a rooster but a Fire element dog, he looks like one and acts like one. 

The Rooster is associated with the SUN, this is a year to stay positive, stay organized  on time and crow your message. 

THE LUCKIEST THINGS FOR ROOSTER 

Numbers: 5, 7 and  8. The 4th and 26th days of a Chinese lunar month. 

Lucky colors,  Gold, brown and yellow.  

Favorable Directions: South, South-West.Favorable months are the2nd, 5th and 11th Chinese lunar months

Favorable months are the2nd, 5th and 11th Chinese lunar months, these differ from western sun based calendar months. 

ROOSTERS SHOULD AVOID

Red which is usually the luckiest color is not good for Roosters.  Don’t bet on these numbers 1,3 and 9. Avoid the EAST. Unlucky months the 3rd, 9th and 12th lunar months. 

The characteristics of Fire Roosters will dominate the Chinese New year. People and fire roosters are short-tempered and demand punctuality. Don’t snooze or be lazy or you will loose. 

This can be a wealth-oriented year. A year to accumulate beautiful things and to strut around showing off your accumulated wealth. Fire roosters are lucky and invest money well. 

Fire roosters get benefits in middle age. They thrive on challenges, they have goals and will work to overcome difficulties to get to their goals. They like competition and thrive on it. 

In love and passion fire rooster have rich colorful emotional lives. They like to have many partners. They like domineering others and controlling situations. Arguments can start easily and quickly escalate out of control. They are very proud of those they love.

No matter what Chinese animal you are you can benefit from tapping into Rooster characteristics. Being clear, independent, capable, having self- respect, and being quick minded are all positive traits. Avoid turning these qualities into negatives like impatience, criticism, eccentricity, narrowmindedness, and selfishness.  Roosters are always busy. This is a year to make sure you have clear goals, avoid laziness, depression, avoidance, numbing out and feeling like you don’t have the energy to finish goals. 

Red is the color to use for FIRE but in small doses. The supporting color to red is green, the color of nature, and new beginnings. Spending time in nature is important this year as well as eating a natural diet. Earthing and breathing in nature and listening to nature sounds is recommended.

There will be dragon parades in major cities, San Francisco, there is one in Toronto and I am sure in Vancouver as well as Beijing and throughout all cities in China.

Don’t panic. NASA is wrong. There are only 12 signs.

This old misleading and blatant lying article about the 13th sign of Astrology is being revived again. The latest variation on the scientific public put down of Astrology came from a kids page of NASA- see link below.  NASA is about ASTRONOMY, it knows nothing about ASTROLOGY. This article is blatantly misleading. It was even covered in TIME  with even more lies. The ASTROLOGY community was never rocked in 2011 as they weren’t rocked when a few astronomers downgraded PLUTO from a planet. All Astrologers LOL when we see these articles because they understand how to work with and interpret the planets and signs. ASTRONOMERS should stick to what they do best. 

ASTROLOGY is having its biggest acceptance, come back and breakthroughs since the RENAISSANCE when the planets  were also aligned in the same positions as 500 years ago.  I think NASA is threatened. 

NASA is great for what it does, scientific research with the stars and planets. Astronomers  are way too arrogant and ignorant to do the research into the ancient origins of Astrology. Geez, these astronomers can’t even get their terminology correct! 

Astrology is actually a legal science in INDIA where almost 1 billion people follow their SIDEREAL constellation based horoscopes religiously. This most ancient of Astrology has 12 signs. It’s a different system than popular Western TROPICAL Astrology signs.  This one actually works with planets against the stars in real time. China has its own system of Astrology based on the 12 animals of the ZOODiac. 

Astrology and Astronomy were once part of the same science which also included doctoring. Each of the signs governs a different part of the body.

 

As far as we know the oldest recorded astrology comes from INDIA and is 12,000  years old and written about in their ancient scriptures.  Astrology/Astronomy is referenced all through the Bible very literally. In Judaism, the 12 tribes are the 12 constellations/signs. Jesus is the Light= the SUN. Mary his Mother= the Moon.  The 12 Apostles are the 12 Constellations and Zodiac signs. In Buddhism, the King’s astrologer predicted at Prince Gautama’s birth that he would be either a saviour or a great King.  All Royal courts had Astrologers who consulted for the King, Emperor, Sultan or Queen.  Elizabeth I has a well known court Astrologer, John Dee. 

Constellations are the origins of astrology signs but Astrology is divided into 12 ZODIAC signs of 30 degrees each making 360 degrees in a circle.  There are twelve months in the year in most modern calendars. The West uses Solar based, not Lunar based calendars as the Chinese, Jews, Muslims, Japanese and Hindu’s do for religious observations. The Mayans used a different calendrical system entirely and it was the most precise to modern reconning. But we won’t get into that now. 

The Ancient watched the Heavens since the beginning of human consciousness for thousands of years. We know innately that we come from the cosmos, that our home, heaven, or source is out there.

Following the Sun’s apparent path on the ecliptic, 12 constellations straddle that path. The 13th constellation, Ophiuchus is not entirely on the ecliptic so it was left out. There were 88 known and used constellations in the Ancient world. The constellations themselves vary in size widely. The Sun spends the longest time passing against the largest constellation of Virgo.

Yes, the Sun passes through the CONSTELLATION OPHIUCUS the serpent bearer, from November 29th- my Birthday -until December 17.  I would refer to myself as a SAGITTARIUS with strong connection to the Constellation Ophiucus and honor both. Ancient Astrology also used the FIXED STARS of the Constellations and I do include these to, interpreted through Western aSTROLOGY.  But Western Tropical Astrology is not sidereal based on CONSTELLATIONS at all but on the relationship of the SUN to the earth and our seasons. 

 

Yes at one time 2,160 years ago when Spring began in the northern Hemisphere, the sun arrived at zero degrees of the Constellation of ARIES.  Everything was perfectly lined up. But because of the PROCESSION of the EQUINOXES, the natural movement of the Constellations backwards through the signs once every 2,160 years, the Sun and the constellations have drifted apart. This was known in the Ancient world. A wonderful book was written about it called Hamlet’s Mill in the 1960’s. The SUN and the planets are actually about 23 degrees earlier than the Tropical signs now due to that procession. This is why NASA says no you are not a LEO your sign is really CANCER. Astrologers know this but it is irrelevant. 

This is what the ASTRONOMERS do not comprehend. Astrology does work, it works in traditional Vedic astrology, which marks the Sun, Moon and planets, Rahu and Ketu against the current Zodiacal constellations. Western Astrology also works but it is a much more symbolic, psychological, modern system which perfectly suits our times.

Statistics have shown that the influence of the Sun in the signs of the Zodiac accounts for the birth of unusual people during certain months. Insurance companies have done studies on this. It is well known that Full Moons affect people. Certain crimes have been found to correspond with zodiac signs in which the sun is moving during certain months of the year.

There are 24 hours in a day. Therefore it’s really pretty simple math to figure out why there is only and can ever be only 12 zodiac signs. So relax, you are not having to change your personality, likes, dating habits or anything. Sorry ASTRONOMERS you don’t know shit about astrology. We respect you, so have some respect for our craft.

Billions of people trust Astrology every day. I am proud to be an Astrologer and to be part of a growing team of qualified professionals whose intentions are to help every individual understand themselves psychologically, spiritually and practically and to understand life’s cycles as signified by the planets’ ever changing dance in the cosmos.

Heal your past, use dragon power byTara Greene

We are between two eclipses.  It is a liminal, twilight, transformative  space. We are now releasing the past with the Pisces South Node SOLAR ECLIPSE and moving towards a new future on the next Lunar eclipse March 23 in LIBRA.

Eclipses can only be created when the Sun and Moon are closely aligned to the North Node, called the DRAGON’s HEAD, from ancient Indian Astrology,called RAHU, and the South Node of the Moon, the DRAGON’S TAIL, called KETU. It is the dragon energy which create the eclipses. This is very, very ancient symbolism.

Game of Thrones, the incredibly popular HBO series, is full of ancient dragons. These archetypal symbols always attract us because of their deeper symbolism.

In Alchemy, the dragon biting it’s tail in either a circle or other formation is called the OUROBORUS.  It symbolizes wholeness, infinity, the cycles of time itself, the wheel of karma, the law of nature, the Phoenix rising eternally from its own ashes. In Ancient Egypt, China, India, Mayan, Aztec cultures all used this symbol which carried an  important religious and mythological Archetypal meaning

 

OURBOROS DRAGON ancient symbol of eternal life 

The Pisces South Nodal SOLAR eclipse, aligned with the dragon’s tail always refers to past life karma or old ingrained unconscious patterns. The SOUTH NODE eclipse in Pisces conjoined with CHIRON the Wounded Healer, allowing every one of  us to totally release that past, whether totally conscious or unconscious, and to let go, through tears, through emotional release, prayers, mantras and intentions- all that has chained us. 

Let all the old wounds and memories come up. I was remembering that I was not present when my mother and my father died. I never really grieved my mother’s death properly because of the timing of her death. Whatever old memories or the realization of old stuck energy patterns arise,  cry the pain out and let it go. Spend as much time as you can, releasing, stomping around, screaming, banging things, and letting go of old addictions, a PISCES theme. Especially with Venus entering Pisces March 12, there is more love, receptivity and emotional power to release Alcoholism, shopaholic, romantic projections, martyrdom, sex addictions, workaholism, these all can be healed. Shamans of the Yaqui lineage, the NAGUALS spend 7 years releasing their past memories in a breathing technique called Recapitulation. Yuo can accomplish this faster now. 

To do this.

Bring up all the emotion all the feeling: That emotional energy is the karmic glue, and is what releases it. Simply state  with great emotion. “I release all past habits and negative karmic patterns both conscious and unconscious now from within myself and for all time and places, past, present and future. “

Focus on being healed from your old karmic issues and in the process you are baptized and washed clean of all your “sins.” As you do this for yourself, you also heal the generational wounds, the sins of the fathers and the mothers. Be the witness who see the patterns, the compulsions and release yourself.

You are your own judge, jury and witness. Holy crap. I just totally GOT a dream I had many years ago. It had Bette Midler in it. And she was in the news today telling Kim Kardashian off for posing nude. wow fascinating. Thank you. It is also like the symbol of JUDGEMENT #20 in the TAROT where the ANGEL Gabriel blows the trumpet on Judgement day and the dead rise again. 

The NORTH NODE, the DRAGON’s HEAD always represents what we are aspiring to, where we are going. The LUNAR ECLIPSE March 23 comes three or four days after the SPRING EQUINOX the major turning point and the true beginning of the year. 

A Lunar eclipse directly affects our emotions, it is a FULL MOON, a completion cycle, a communion time. 

The Lunar Eclipse at 3+ degrees LIBRA is actually inconjunct to the star that symbolizes the Archangel Gabriel. Fomalhaut at 3 degrees PISCES Tropical. This is a challenge for us but one that means connecting the emotions and the mind, the head and the heart.

2014, Year of the Wood Horse Chinese Zodiac musings

I am still working on my 2014 predictions for some newspapers. Deadline is soon.

I am also thinking about the Chinese New Year and how that compliments or not, Western Astrology and Grand Cardinal Crosses. The Chinese New Year always begins on a New Moon. On Jan 30 @ 11:20 pm PST the year of the WOOD HORSE begins.

Immediately I think of the Trojan Horse, a toy horse, a rocking horse, a merry go round horse or a horse that is connected to nature, the physical world and abundance. I am not a Chinese Astrology expert but am fascinated with it. Billions of Asians trust and faithfully follow their Astrology system as with Feng Shui, Taoist, I Ching, and other ancient metaphysical systems of knowledge. China has an unbroken lineage of over 5,000 years. Much like India, whose Astrology origins are said to be 12,000 years old, and Indigenous Inka and other shamanic traditions.

Unfortunately in the West our Astrology traditions, originating from India, come down to us from Babylonian, Sumerian, Egyptian, Greek,Islamic and European traditions. The first science then merged, was chopped, dropped, misinterpreted,  spliced and then discredited by the Church and the “modernists scientific” movement. Yet Newton was an Alchemist, he died from Mercury poison. But I wander here.

 The WOOD HORSE YEAR
Feels intuitively to me like- RACY. We’re off to the races. Energy will be swift, independent, high spirited, moving much faster. Travel, adventure, “pack mentality” standing your ground, far reaching. Listen to the pounding of the horses’ hoofs on the ground.

“Hi Yo Silver away.” Do you know where that comes from?

The horse is much revered in China. Considered to be magical, with super powers . The Goddess Kwan Yin has a magical white celestial cloud horse which flies through the skies bringing blessings and good luck. Think of PEGASUS from Greek mythology or Unicorns. Very magical indeed, Harry Potterish.

The Chinese Zodiac is related to the yearly transit of the Planet Jupiter through each of the 12 Astrology signs and is sidereal. Horse is equal to the sign of GEMINI in the West.  Because of the precession of the Equinoxes, Jupiter is in Gemini now against the stars in real time and entering Cancer later this year.

This adds further impetus to my sense of a very fast furious year in 2014, with many arguments, condemnations, furor, and clashes between people. Power struggles, Trying to tame the wild untamed- everything. Using your gut instincts, much nostril flaring. It feels competitive.

When I was a child I pretended I was a horse. Nothing made me happier than kicking up my hoofs and trotting home or cantering and neighing. Try it.

People born in Horse years

2002, 1990, 1978, 1966, 1954, 1942, 1930, 1918, 1906 and of course in 2014 are bright cheerful, fun-loving and childlike. They will benefit the most from this year as well as people who are born in the year of the Tiger, Dog or Sheep or if you have those animals in your year, month , day and hour. 

Do you follow your Chinese Zodiac Animal?
