The Sagittarius TOTAL Solar Eclipse is an opportunity to tap into DNA Ancestral lineage knowledge. It is a South Nodal Eclipse which is both an astronomical and an astrological designation. At this super charged Dark Moon always associated with the Yin cycle. We can access past wisdom, past life learnings, ancestral DNA wisdom at this Solar Eclipse and release past hurts karma and emotional trauma at this time. It is a perfect precursor to the Winter Solstice Jupiter Saturn alignment.
We wont see the eclipse in North America but we will feel it notheless.
Sagittarius, the 9th sign is known for Higher education, inspiration, sage wisdom, far distant travels, truth, justice, freedom, philosophy, humor, optimism, risk-taking, trust, adventure, faith and mysticism. Sagittarius is the last of the fire signs and represents a more matured energy of Aries and Leo.
The root of the word Sagittarius is related to the word sage. A sage is a venerable, older, wise teacher who inspires and passes on valuable information. That is what the Sagittarius mission is -to inspire awe, wonder and to point its arrows of truth higher towards the Galactic Center. This center of our Milky Way Galaxy is a huge black hole and the place which the Mayans say is the origin and ending for all souls, the cosmic vagina, a wormhole or gateway to the beyond.
This eclipse is tied to the GREAT BLACK HOLE at the center of our galaxy which the Mayans referred to as the Great Cosmic Yoni where all souls enter and leave through this great Black Hole which sucks in all matter and light.
Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, King of the Gods who amplifies and expands the positive optimistic joyousness of this New Moon Eclipse. Sagittarius seeks its tribe, we need to gather with like-minded people at this time.
Sagittarius’s symbol, the Centaur, depicts that this sign combines the animal instincts with the human rational and the two sides of our brains. We are both self-aware in our human consciousness and also driven by our wild, untamed, unconscious natural animal instincts. Sagittarius is connected to the Greek Goddess Diana, the wild virgin huntress, Goddess of the Moon running with her dogs or wolves. The wolf is also the animal associated with Sagittarius as they are teachers.
In our modern, tech driven, urban world we tend to live full time in the so-called “higher consciousness” information-saturated world. We have largely lost touch with our ancestral intuitive “animal brain” which was viewed as our “lower nature” in some spiritual traditions. Modern life is moving so much, with information overload that we are in danger of burning out from an excess of mental processing which leads to an anorexia of natural experiences. We need to reinvigorate our wild side and learn to trust our instincts. The illogical, magically inspired side of ourselves needs to howl under the Full Moon light.
The Tarot Trump for SAGITTARIUS is #14 Temperance /ALCHEMY or ART
Thoth Tarot Trump #14 Sagittarius
This is the card of balancing and Transformation. It is related to the Philosopher’s stone which symbolizes turning lead {Saturn, matter} into Gold {the Sun or spiritual Light}.
The TEMPERANCE ANGEL symbolizing our Higher Selves is combining the masculine watery fire {mind} and the fiery water {instincts} to transform both into something entirely new. In this way we combine our shadow selves and become more than we were. This card is also known as the SACRED MARRIAGE card.
On the Tree of Life, Temperance, called Samekh is on the Central path from the Moon to the Sun from the Personality to the Higher self. This path is where we rise to have direct knowledge and conversation with our Holy Guardian Angel which allows us to be reborn. This is the Great Work.
It also symbolizes the “dark night of the soul” part of the hero/heroine’s journey where one goes through a period of depression, abandonment and feels lost and desolate and must have faith and believe that there is Light at the end of the tunnel of rebirth.
This NEW Moon allows us to alchemically change, transform and renew our animal instincts and howl our wisdom.
Prepare for the next Saros Cycle Eclipse at this same degree 18 + years from now. This is a future starting point to prepare for when planets will also contact these degrees. Think about these future activations and where you want to be.

SMUDGE WITH SAGE or lavender
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 in a lotus position if you can. You can do this ritual outdoors. It would be good to be barefoot and sitting on the earth. Light your candles and incense and close your eyes.
Give thanks for what you have learned since the last full Moon in Scorpio where we shed the old skins May 3-4.
Set your intentions on expanding your ability to connect with your Holy Guardian Angel and the Higher Master Teachers which Jupiter governs.
Breathe in through your nose naturally, and breathe and send your intention to your root chakra, breathe and spark the flame of your passion in your root chakra. Connect your breath down by growing a tail with each breath that roots down from the base of your spine, down, down into the earth’s molten lava iron core.
When you feel the connection to the earth’s fire, breathe it up through the rocks and crystals back up into your root chakra and breathe it up in sequence from the lowest 1st root chakra up to the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th chakras. You can also send your energy breath and intention out and beyond your crown chakra to the 8th and 9th chakras. The 8th is your Higher self, it is Gold about 1 foot above your head. The Peruvian shamans send energy to a 9th chakra which symbolizes the Galactic Center and beyond, the wiracocha. Direct your energy out there, and call upon your Holy Guardian Angel and Michael and Uriel and the Master Teachers to come and connect with you.
Now direct your attention within. See your inner feminine and inner masculine sides. Sense their individual energies. Watch them yearn for and meld and blend into each other, transforming totally into each other. Watch the masculine become feminine and the feminine become masculine. Sense and feel this new essence, this unified golden being that has been transformed into a whole and complete new you. Feel yourself radiate the Gold. Sound AUM or OHM.
For those of you who are single and still longing to find your soulmate, doing this exercise is mandatory to magnetically attract your “other half” to you. When you are whole and complete and can empathize with the other, than your other appears but you don’t need them. You can have a relationship based on mutual respect and strength.
See in your mind’s eye an open book. In this book write in gold ink your intentions to live from your highest spiritual consciousness and your strongest instincts. Write about your aspirations, write about what you want to learn, and how you can teach and inspire others.
Take as much time as you need. When you feel complete. Give thanks. Know that your Guardian Angel will always and protect you.
Come out of your meditation and dance. Celebrate, howl, do something generous for a stranger, Keep the energy and optimism going.
