Feb 3/4 The LEO Full Moon has conjunct JUPITER @ 9:31 pm PST
on Feb 4 @ 12:31 am EST then is Void of course all day until 9:46 pm PST/ Feb 5 @ 12:46 am EST.
That’s a whole day to reflect post Full Moon.
Moon Jupiter in LEO is emotional strength, will power. Leo is also pride, anger, courage and Jupiter expands everything he touches. This produces inflamed passion of both types, it can be positive heart opening and furiously enraged in tooth and claw, berzerker energy.
Mars also quincunx to Jupiter Feb 4 indicates irritated energies, frustration and scapegoating.
We are Retrograding over old feuds with Jupiter still Retrograde. For Muslim terrorists this is an 800 year old revenge. The savage burning alive of captured Jordanian pilot Muath al-Kaseasbeh shows the depths of barbarism being dragged out onto the worlds stage. This story is coming out now though he as killed on January 3. Jordan will retaliate.
Inspirational Card of the day
LEO is STRENGTH /LUST
TAROT Of MARSEILLES FORTE #11
The card shows a Woman. Women are always symbols of the Psyche/ Soul. She is closing the jaws of the hungry savage lion. She controls the primal animal instincts for sex, blood, food.
The key is how do we respond to such barbarism? An eye for an eye when we are dealing with extreme terrorists is all they will understand. We cannot appear weak against this kind of terrorism.
On a personal level, these questions are pertinent as Jupiter will remain in Leo until August 11.
This is the SPIRIT, The Force of FIRE
available to all of us, and amplified by Saturn in Sagittarius and Uranus in Aries.
In Hebrew you would call it the Esh Kadosh
Where are my strengths?
What does my heart and soul tell me to do?
How can I express all that I hold in my heart without fear?
What parts of myself do I need to control to become a leader, a star, a creative force?
This Cancer Full Moon is known as The Wolf Moon in Native American teachings.
The Cardinal Cross energy of this Full Moon also reminds me of a Native Medicine Wheel, with the 4 directions marked now as the Sun and Pluto in the North { element of Air } Uranus and the South Node in Aries in the East {Fire element} the Moon in the South { Cancer } Water element, and the North Node in Libra in the West as EARTH as it would be in the Medicine Wheel Indigenous Teachings that I studied. Each tradition places the elements in different directions. Astrology has the masculine elements aligned in oppositions. In Indigenous or wiccan teachings they are usually opposite masculine/feminine magnetic forces.
We are in the Cardinal Cross hairs most definitely on this Full Moon and it;s making my tummy feel very queasy and teary.
I have felt a lot of deep shadow material surfacing. This may feel unpleasant physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually but it is good. Cleansing. Tears are good, wash away the pain.
I love wolves, I always have. I think it stems from a fantastic book that I read from the library when I was a child which I still fondly remember called The Wolf King written by Joseph W. Lippincott in 1949 about a giant black wolf in Alberta. Remember that whatever it is you are attracted to, and pay attention to will come to you. That is the Law of Attraction.
Use the energy of the wolf to help guide you over the next two weeks until the New Moon in Aquarius, or whenever you like.Wolves need to be protected and respected, not feared. Wolves are highly intelligent pack animals, who mate for life.
Wolves have powerful instincts, and symbolize intuition as they are so tied into the lunar forces, singing and howling at Full Moons. Have you ever heard wolf howls on the Full Moons? Wolf characteristics are loyalty and trust. They are great communicators, symbolizing teachers, leaders and organizers as they live and work in packs.
Romulus and Remus, the founders of Rome were nursed by a great she-wolf. Mongolians believed they are descendants of wolves. The modern fear of wolves in fairy tales, is a smear campaign designed to keep individuals from trusting their primal instincts. If you own a dog, you know how loyal and big dog’s hearts are. Wolves are the ancestors of all modern dog breeds and they became mans best friend. I have friends who have hand raised pure breed wolves and they can be tamed and are very much like huskies or shepherds.
My family and I had an amazing encounter with a wolf in British Columbia years ago. We were driving outside of a small town in the Kootenay’s, called Kaslo, on a two lane highway in broad daylight. A huge black animal sprung out from the woods and stopped and stood mid-lane down the road, staring right at us. We thought it was a black bear as it took up almost the entire lane in width. Then we noticed its large bushy tail which almost touched the ground. It had piercing golden eyes which were fixed at us. We tried to slow down but couldn’t as we had a large lumber truck behind us and there was no shoulder to stop at. The black timber wolf was amazing, dignified, fearless. It stood its ground until our car got too close, then it leaped into the woods and disappeared. In a few minutes we were in Kaslo and checked in at the small tourist information stop. We told them about the wolf, and they said. “Strange to see a lone wolf outside in the day. Very strange. Haven’t seen a big timber wolf in awhile.” We knew we had been blessed. I still have that golden eyed wolf gaze embedded in my heart. He was the real Wolf King I’d read about when I was a child. He or she is my spirit guide, totem animal. Have you had experiences like this?
MEDITATE with the wolf while the Moon is Full and on every full moon.
Do you feel like a lone wolf without a pack, support or a mate? Then call the wolves to be by your side. Do you have difficulty trusting people, or your instincts? Call upon the wolf.
Before this meditation prepare some food for the wolf as an offering is good to attract wolf spirits. You could use meat or dog food.
In your meditation, visualize a wolf. Call the wolf to guide, teach protect and help you now. Howl like a wolf. Be patient, they are cautious. You will feel its presence. You may smell its breath, or feel its fur, which is soft. Treat it with much respect when it appears, or speaks to you telepathically. They are powerful teachers.
Ask the wolves to come into your dreams. Dreaming about a wolf according to Native American tradition symbolizes beauty, mystery, solitude, self-confidence and pride.
Let me know how your wolf meditation and dreaming go please.
I was rereading that classic Women Who Run with the Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estes.
Ok You won’t believe this. I almost can’t. A small miracle has occurred. Talking about attracting what you put your energy into. I had an old audio tape of a Canadian singer, Nancy Ward that I’d adored and I’ve been searching for in my house for years. It has a song called WE ARE WOLVES which has moved my soul unlike almost no other song. It always brings me to tears. I love to sing it. I just found it after many years. Thank you thank you. The album was produced by Jack Lenz. They are both members of the Bahai community.
