The Moon is in Scorpio today on Christmas Eve in the U.S. and Chanukah
Selfridge’s store window Zodiac sign Scorpio
SCORPIO MOON is the most intensely passionate and obsessive of all the moon positions. This aspect brings on Black moods, deeply controlling, secretive, can be manipulative, power hungry shadows. It can be very sexually intense as well. If its just you and a beloved well enjoy the passion. We can use this opportunity to watch our family story just like a movie. Wich it is, your life is your own reality show. Watch all the family dramas, the old stereotypical roles everyone plays from the viewpoint of the watcher. Don’t react, just observe. This is dharma in action.
Scorpio Moon trine Neptune in the a.m.
This is potentially a very mystical, dreamy, soul mate energy or very sad and lonely, drunken, addicted, in denial place. We can be feeling foggy, dreamy, melancholy, deluded, spiritual, hungover and feeling very empathic. Do be very careful of overdoing it in the alcohol department. It’s a good night of powerful deeply spiritual and lucid dreaming. You can meet enlightened teachers but also demonic forces, Keep your guards up. Record whatever you dreamed about when you awaken.
Moon sextile Mercury
This brings some helpful energy to Mercury’s Retrograde motion. If you are traveling and many are, people will be helpful and generally congenial. Do call up old friends and wish them well. It’s important to reach out.
Saturn in SAGITTARIUS trine Uranus in ARIES at 20 degrees This is a BIG ASPECT.
Saturn is the traditional ruler of both Capricorn and AQUARIUS. When planet Uranus was discovered March 13, 1781, by William Herschel in England, whose last name letter is still the symbol of Uranus, it became the modern ruler of Aquarius in Tropical Astrology. By looking at their similarities rather than their differences we can really use this aspect to our best advantage. They are in fact the yin/yang, opposite poles of reality. Saturn is the limits, history, the status quo. Uranus blasts away the old and frees it up, it invents, liberates, pioneers and radically alters the old structures.
Saturn is conservative and Uranus is the opposite. Those who feel Trump is taking America backwards must hold the light of change, innovation, radical invention, and Aquarian ideals that we are all deserving to be on the same playing field, not just the 1% and not just those corporations who “provide jobs” and are therefore given all kinds of tax-Saturn’s realm, leniency. Aquarius energy is inclusive of all. Everyone has a right to be free to be who they want.
Scorpio MOON sextiles PLUTO
This puts the Moon and Pluto into the same realm. PLUTO rules Scorpio. This is a very passionately sexual sign. This aspect easily digs up the old family skeletons. Dysfunctional family stuff will be bursting out more than the turkey’s stuffing. Great. This is just what most people want to avoid at Christmas. But where else to recycle the toxic family unconscious emotional shadows than at ground zero? We can use Pluto’s power as the purifier and recycler of the soul and the knower of shades to clarify our own soul, our own validity. Use all the shadows as a means to recognize them but not to be triggered and act on them. This can be challenging but also very transformative and liberating. If you can pass this test, you are truly free and clear and can laugh at all your shadows. Be careful around Trump supporters they are the most vitriolic. But so are Dem supporters these days. Watch and compare the two. It’s a remarkable show.
Moon square Venus in late PST/ Dec 25 in the wee hours
This is a lovely deeply soulful heart energy. Think of those you love who have passed recently and in your past. This aspect helps us to plumb the depths of unfelt emotions. Let the tears or rage rise up. Squares bring up conflict. Be careful of touching raw nerves
VENUS in AQUARIUS is also TRINE JUPITER in LIBRA
The overall benefits of this can not be overestimated considering everything else. No matter how much deep-seated trauma and emotional gut wrenching hurt a Scorpio Moon can dredge up. This aspect between the planet of Love and the PLANET of GENEROSITY brings peace, and goodwill, and largesse allowing everyone the space to be who they are which can overrule the Moon. But remember this detachment and being NICE for the sake of appearances can also be too superficial. The real emotional deep rivers of lava are still there running and burning underneath everything. You may leave feeling very wounded afterwards.
SATURN in SAGITTARIUS is squaring CHIRON
The old patriarchal family wounds will be triggered. Be careful of talking politics, which is Saturn in Sagittarius current preferred Karmic mode of torture and tests. Most people will feel hurt and offended by any positions these days.
JUPITER in LIBRA is opposite URANUS in ARIES
Bolting from the table because of a slight is very likely. Uranus in ARIES is impulsive and rash.The clash of the TITANS. There will be clashes between liberals, and conservatives. Someone will have to attempt to be the conciliator, counsellor, or go-between. Divorces may be triggered.
Sounds like it will be a heavily emotionalChristmas climate. Be prepared. Remember to wear psychic armor at all times. Practice being loving and seeing everyone in your family as a wounded child who is unconscious and who only appear to be an adult. You can get through this, the Scorpio Moons purpose is transformation.
MARS is in PISCES is very close to the SOUTH NODE of the MOON
Mars rules the Scorpio Moon. Use this energy as a conscious action to let go of past unconsciousness, martyrdom, fail for spite, power games, obsessive ego games, hiding out, blaming others, using addictions, and being co-dependent. Get rid of all of these avoidance techniques. Life is a rehab center. Just let go of all old karmic residue and boldly move on. This is a very spiritual Warrior position. Mars in Pisces is strong enough to be vulnerable, and compassionate. We can get close to the wounded masculine. At the appropriate times we can let down our shieds and our guard. True intimacy is possible.
Sending you blessings for a great Chanukah too.

The Cancer Full Moon Mother Meditation
by Agent 129 TARA GREENE Cosmic Intelligence Agency
Sidney_Hall_Urania’s_MirrorCancerThe restorationist, Adam Cuerden, requests attribution
The Full Moon, December 25, Christmas Day @ 11:11 am GMT is a very rare occurrence. It hasn’t happened since 1977 and the next Christmas Full Moon won’t happen until 2034. The message is be in the now and don’t miss it. At 3+ degrees Cancer it is the sign of the Mother, the Great Mother, receptivity, family, nurturing, food, the stomach, instincts, intuition, the oceans, nourishment, emotional safety, security, Home, roots, foundation, the womb, protection, the matrix.
Cancer is a cardinal water sign governed by the Moon. This is a beautiful Full Moon synchronicity as Christmas is all about celebrating birth, family, giving and children. This Christmas will be a very emotionally loaded situation. The connection to the Divine Mother and her Divine Child brings unconditional Healing love for all the children of the world and we do so need to receive that now. Call upon the Moon Mothers, Egyptian Goddess Isis, Diana, Kwan Yin, Tara, there are hundreds of them, to show you their love and to heal your heart, womb and soul so that you may spread your love to all the children, the oceans and rivers. This Full Moon is a time of fertility. The Full Moon in Cancer will exert event stronger pulls on our emotions and the tides. The Werewolf myth symbolizes the wild, unconscious, instinctual responses we have to the Full Moon. It is naturally a time of strong sexuality and the only time during the month when our ancestors would be out at night, safely enjoying a moon bath.
This Full Moon will greatly exaggerate our emotions, our hearts and our unquenched thirst for love. We all have inner children whose need to be loved, accepted and appreciated never diminishes. Cancer rules the stomach and all eating disorders are connected to the lack of being breast-fed, bonding with the mother, or lacking a sense of emotional safety as young child. Of course this Full Cancerian Moon will be stirring our moods and upsetting our tummies. Be mindful of over-eating as emotional compensation, to numb out stressful feelings
In the Tarot the sign of Cancer is symbolized by Major Arcana #7 The Chariot.
The Chariot is a very spiritual card as it relates to the emotional body being the vehicle or chariot that the soul uses. To navigate the Chariot one must have total emotional control. The Charioteer dressed in armor of gold and encrusted with jewels in the Thoth tarot holds the Wheel of Time/Karma/ Fortune in their lap. This Card signifies that if one can control their emotions they control and guide their karma/future/ fortune.
The obvious questions that come up: Are you in the driver’s seat? How will you stay in equanimity when you are with your family and all the old childhood triggers happen? Of course this Full Cancerian Moon will be stirring our moods, and upsetting our tummies, which Cancer rules. This may be a Christmas of over-eating as emotional compensation, to numb out feelings.
Cancer 4. People watching fireworks in the distance.
The Chandra Symbol for this degree is “Weeping willows by a pond.” The fronds of the trees reach down toward the water. Knowledge (as symbolized by trees) seeks connection with the emotional and intuitive realms. At the other extreme – high in the sky – are the fireworks of the Omega Symbol, and unlike the closeness of the fronds to the water, they are at a distance. They signify spiritual glories, the fiery, free, and beautiful energies of the ethereal realms. These are the two places where we need to focus our attention – deep inside ourselves (the pond) and far outside ourselves into the infinite. The more aware we become of these two realms the more we see they they are reflections of each other, and that ultimately they are the same – there is no inner or outer, only the oneness and unity of self.
This is the best time to bring out your crystals to be washed in the full Moon’s light. Also making tinctures for women’s reproduction is done under this Full Moon.
HERBS:Damiana, Comfrey, passion-flower, fennel, coriander, purslane, Watercress, Yellow Flag, Water Lily, white Poppy, white Rose, white lotus. Seaweeds.
Sanskrit Name: Chandra
FLOWERS: All night blooming flowers, jasmine, white flowers, peonies, roses, lotus.
Begin by smudging yourself first. Light your candles. One for each direction. I always work EAST to SOUTH to WEST TO NORTH. Always move clockwise. Call in the four elements and the four direction into your sacred circle.
Call in the four Archangels, Michael, Gabriel, Ariel, Raphael in the same order.
Center yourself by breathing, sit or lie down, close your eyes.
Sit upright. Begin to breathe, slowly, naturally and deeply. Let all your thoughts dissipate as you breathe in and out. Pay attention to your breath moving in through your nostrils filling up your lungs and then being released as your lungs empty, breathing out through your mouth. Pause after you exhale for a few seconds then slowly breathe in for the count of four and be aware of the air entering your lungs and filling them. The deeper you breathe, the more oxygen enters your body and brain. This expands your consciousness and awareness and your entire body relaxes.
Breathe into and be aware of your womb. Put your hands on your 2nd chakra. Men also have a spirit womb. We want to go back into the unconscious memories of being in our mother’s and in the Great Mother’s womb.
Feel how you are totally loved and inseparable from the physical, spiritual and emotional ground with your mother. You are One with the Universe who is your Mother.If you had a difficult relationship with your mother, or if you were unwanted emotionally while your mother was pregnant, or you were abandoned, then this is the perfect time to heal those issues by connecting with the Divine Goddess.
Imagine that you go back in time to before you were born in this life. See and sense yourself as a small baby in utero. Listen. You will hear the pounding of the heartbeat of your mother, as a steady drum beat.Ba boom, ba boom, ba boom. This was the constant rhythm that accompanied every child every moment before birth. It is pitch black and you are weightless, floating in the amniotic sac. You have no thirst and no hunger, your needs are automatically cared for, continuously fed through your umbilicus and the placenta. Feel the sense of total ease, joy, connection, warmth, safety and security.
Imagine the Great Goddess, you can see her as Mary if you are Catholic, or as the Great Mother, Demeter, Yemaya or Kwan Yin.Feel her take you magically into her womb. Feel yourself having a joyous easy ecstatic birth. Feel the Great Mother take you to her breast and nurse you. Taste the ambrosia, which you eagerly gulp down and which makes you feel dizzy with joy and bliss. Your tummy feels filled and satisfied. Feel her gazing into your eyes and your soul. Feel her heart totally embracing you with unshakable love. Your body will begin to relax, to trust, and to feel nurtured as you receive this unconditional love like a hummingbird drinks nectar. Do this and allow whatever feelings and sensations of peace, contentment, and relaxation arise.
Soak up the love for as long as you wish. You may fall asleep, that is ok. Remember that the Divine Mother has always been and will always be there to hold you, protect you and nurture you. You are safe, loved and secure. When you are filled with unconditional love then you have more than enough love in your heart to share to give unconditionally to others.
Come out of this meditation feeling content, blissed out, relaxed and satisfied. This is the peace. Do this meditation daily. Thank the Great Mother.
Pregnant mothers: this is an excellent moon to really connect with your unborn child. Think about giving birth in as natural a way as possible. It is the most important transition in anyone’s life. Water births are very safe and labor is easier for the mother and child. Get a midwife, she will empathize in a way that no doctor or gynecologist will. Home births are the safest and easiest for mothers.
Wishing you and your family a happy joyful Holiday.
Christmas is an ancient pagan ritual. ALso part of the Saturnalia that the Greeks and Romans celebrated over 2,000 years ago,
The Moon is Trine Mars at the critical degree 29 of Capricorn @ 9:59 pm PST/ 12:58 am Dec 25 EST
Capricorn is ruled by SATURN, hence the Saturnaliaconnection of Ancient and new.
This aspect is action, hot, passion and the last degree of the last earth sign Capricorn is all about earthing, building, structuring,finalizing, completing in the 3 D realm. Act on building your dream, your highest honored standing in the world.
My sense of it since the Dec 21 Solstice is all your very deepest intentions will manifest instantly,
so be very very aware of what you want to build, what you wish for.
The goddess is alive and Magic is Afoot.
Capricorn hoof shoes
NOt a lucky rabbit’s foot, but Capricorn hoof feet
Yes they also have gun power,and in the light of the recent Gun control laws, I’d say guns will be underfoot.
There are two sides to that story, won’t go into that now
