U.S. government shutdown- A Hard Day’s Night Astrology

Well they picked a perfect day to call a debt ceiling and shut down the government in Astrology.  The Leo Moon’s is Void of course, drifting  across Fixed Star Regulus now at Zero degrees Virgo. Starting anything on a Void of course Moon is always a big no-no. Those Republicans would do well to consult with a knowledgable astrologer who would advise them against this timing.  The Traditional equation is “nothing good will come of this.”

The Moon symbolizing the instincts, moods and emotions of the people was just all rankled up with that Leo Moon/Mars conjunction. Hopping mad! We aren’t gonna take this anymore.  The instinct is to cut the  royal privilege and get with humble Virgo accountability.

Virgo, sign of “servants” traditionally,  humble, salt of the earth hard-working folks. What all great empires are built on.

It’s been a Hard day’s Night.

The Republican’s Get the brilliant idea to shut down the government

Mercury, the fleet-footed one is already in shadow territory slowing down before turning Retrograde on  October 21.  Mercury, Virgo’s planetary ruler is in Scorpio now- being silent, watching, uncovering secrets, researching, pulling power punches, and

on October 1 -Trine Neptune- ruler of DEBT, wouldn’t you  know. Ding. Ding.

The Markets will plunge but they do this each and every October. So don’t jump out of any buildings yet. I was in L.A. on Black Monday in October 1987, it was horrible walking around Beverly Hills. But we recovered.

Then Virgo- hard working nitpicking perfectionistic Moon opposes Neptune -the real vs. the unreal, unseen, unaccountable, illusion.. Who is counting? 
Virgo moon sextiles Mercury- ok lets get down to this accounting, accountability thing. In your personal life too.

Then SUN Squares PLUTO in Capricorn. Libra Sun needs to strike a balance, be fair, to incorporate corporate Plutocrats. Squared off means- no side budges/budgets.

But tomorrow is another day said Scarlett O’Hara in Gone With the Wind. Libra is a an AIR SIGN.

Oct 2 Saturn Trines Chiron – Scorpio is insurance, which is lobbying against Obamacare and ruthlessly raking non tax payers over the coals till they weep.

Virgo Moon Trines Pluto- get a goal and stick with it for 5 years straight.

Virgo moon opposes Chiron- cry all you want that doesn’t fill the debt coffers.

Virgo Moon sextiles Saturn- well we can try to rationalize some solution.

Virgo Moon quincunx’s Uranus- those Darn republicans are so staunchly conservative, They don’t believe in caring for your fellow citizen.

SUN quincunx Chiron-Lots of give and take, but no prize yet…

Virgo Moon sextiles Jupiter in Cancer- float a higher debt ceiling, pinch some pennies here and there but children still need care.

On a personal level. Saturn Trine Chiron can produce beautiful new transformational healing journeys. Let yourself cry, unburden yourself. No one has to be a martyr. 

Neither toot nitpicky nor too over idealistic be.

That Libra Sun will negotiate some kind of deal as there is a New Moon OCTOBer 4 at 11 degrees Libra exactly Square to the U.S. of A.’s SUN at 12 degrees Cancer.

nEW mOON Is THE VOID, IN THE WOMB, IN THE CAVE, ALL IS POTENTIAL. 

wE NEED TO EVOLVE A NEW WAY, A NEW PARTNERSHIP, Don’t you agree?

well is this ANARCHY then?

THERE’S NO MORE I, ME Mine, That was the mantra that came up today in conversation with my Better half today.

Yah I like that.  What do you think? Everything feels “CUSPY” to me.

SAVE THE COUNTRY- by LAura NYRO  1969 

Peter Sellers-A Hard Day’s Night  and The Beatles – We can Work it out  

A Royally karmic Leo New Moon and the Nodal Axis

Each New Moon every month is a new beginning in the Lunar cycle that affects our emotions, the flux and flow of  the oceans, our feelings.

The 3 days of the New Moon, when the Sun and the Moon are in conjunction are the darkest time of the month. The Moon rests and renews Herself.

In Leo, the Sign ruled by the Sun itself, the 5th sign, Fixed Fire, is our feelings centers, our wills, our hearts, our strength, pride and courage swell and shine brightest. In the Tarot the Symbol of LEO is STRENGTH.

A LEO NEW MOON is where our egos and feelings are in the dark, gestating, hidden, full of new potential waiting to be born. The Lions sleep tonight.

The August 6 New moon at 14+ degrees Leo is actually on the 15th and most powerful degree of any sign, the exact midpoint.

This further strengthens and empowers the heart, and the childlike nature of Leo, the role playing, the strut, the Ego.

LEo is the sign of ROYALTY, Kings and Queen’s- either real ones, and we’ve just had the birth of a new Royal Prince

or pretend ones, petty tyrants  those who strut around like everyone else owes them.

POWER is Leo’s middle Name.

One of the most powerful features of this New Moon is its’ T- Square to the North Node at 12 degrees Scorpio and the South at 12 degrees of Taurus.

THE NORTH and South Nodes are considered to be Karmic points which transit around every 18.6 years in their cycles. The N and S Nodes  create eclipses of the Sun and Moon on average 4 times  each year when the Luminaries align close to them. They have been considered very important points for thousands of years.

The North Node, whether in a Natal chart or in a collective chart such as this one, always symbolizes the  highest spiritual goal, what we are evolving towards. The South Node is always the past,  what we already know and what we need to leave behind. The South Node is the point of least resistance. This hard aspect indicates we are at a cross roads and must choose now to leave the old Taurus resources  behind.

Relationships, marriages, Royalty, ego’s, children, and everything symbolized by LEO, and leaders  of all kinds must leave the old familiar basic down to earth, survival instincts of Taurus and evolve to create a deeper, more encompassing SOUL/psyche Scorpio, 8th house form of shared resources.

The New MOON is conjunct the GODDESS ASTEROID VESTA exactly. Vesta was the GODDESS OF FIRE, the hearth flame, whose name is originally Sanskrit for “Shining”. She was originally worshipped at Delphi,Greece as a heap  of living coal, known as the Omphalos or Navel of the World.  In pre-patriarchal times all women served as Priestesses in her sacred  temples.  The Priestesses healed men  after they had been to war and had shed blood through having Tantric Sex which cleansed and purifed them before they could be integrated back into society.  These women were seen to be holy Hierodules, human forms of the Goddess Divine.  The Vestal “virgins” meant that they were whole and complete unto themselves and belonged to no one man. This became corrupted into what we now think of as Vestal Virgins, celibate women, like nuns, who were dedicated to religion.  Vesta symbolizes dedication to our sacred work. 

SCORPIO, where the North Node is leading us, until the Spring of 2014, is the SIGN OF SOUL, of birth death and transformation, it is sex, power, money, resources, taxes, secrets, finances and it moves from the 2nd house of Taurus which is personal resources to Collective resources, the World soul of the 8th house.

In other words our ego’s, our sexuality and our work must evolve past the literal and fundamental, the mere survival level  to incorporate a SOUL inclusive perspective.

CHIRON at 12 degrees Pisces is Quincunx to the NEW MOON and VESTA.  Pride must fall before real healing compassion and forgiveness can take place. Like and Addict who hides their addiction behind an act or a role, they cannot begin to get real until the actor admits to their crutch. Sexuality that is divorced from the soul, such as addiction to pornography or defiling the sacredness of sex needs to be healed.  so that our bodies and especially women’s bodies are considered the most sacred. where the body is considered SACRED body  .

Venus at 18 degrees VIRGO also opposes Chiron to indicate that  our bodies and especially women’s bodies are considered to be the most sacred.  Venus in Virgo serves and cares about her work, the work force, health, food and the environment that needs to be healed. Ongoing protests against MONSANTO need to be kept up vigilantly until they are outlawed in the U.S. and Canada as in Europe, Peru, Bolivia and other countries.

JUPITER is also a very prominent player. On AUGUST 7  Jupiter makes the first of 3 oppositions to PLUTO in CAPRICORN and on AUGUST 21 makes the first of 3 squares to URANUS which makes this month extremely dynamic and revolutionary.

JUPITER In Cancer expands our knowledge and understanding of family, nurturing, home, security,wholesome food, women and children. And of course those GRAND OLD Trines are still in effect with Neptune in Pisces and Saturn In Scorpio. 

Take time at the 3 days of the DARK of the Moon from the 6-9th to contemplate how your heart’s desire and your will will expand to heal yourself and the world. These are challenging times. we must boldy go forth, as in the Star Trek motto- 

REMEMBER to do the Jupiter Pluto Ritual from the 3rd -7th every day as well.
