www.anneortelee.com The eclipses continue! The eclipses continue! Last week was pretty rocking as the Full Moon eclipse on the nodes brought situations to light that we hadn’t seen before. Mercury out of bounds and combust to the Sun pointed out something you might not have wanted to see or know about. But look you did…. Even if you DIDN’T want to look. Mercury issues ~ computers, communications, travel, connections, keys, siblings, contracts, cars, and the simplest words leaving your mouth, twitter or email could and probably did cause you problems.
That old South Node is where we get stuck in the muck and mud of our life, repeating addictive behaviors and things that aren’t so good or healthy for us. Over and over we repeat them. One more time for good measure but with a nasty twist was last week‘s message.
The South Node in with a Gemini Sun and Sagittarius Moon illuminated on the Full Moon a situation we didn’t want to deal with or address. On some level, we probably knew it but we preferred to not know it. Last week the Universe said, “Nope, you have to look.”
Mercury in the last degrees of Gemini caused problems as he distorted what was going on. Mercury combust the Sun makes us think OUR version of reality is the real one. Every one else has a distorted version of the truth or is just plain old wrong. And Mars on the evil fixed star Algol caused us to “lose our head” or our temper over some situation. We could have blasted or been blasted but there was SOOO much stuff flying around it would be hard not to get hit by a bit of it.
Unfortunately, Mercury now has entered an emotionally sensitive sign, Cancer, for the next few weeks and the final eclipse on July 1st. So people are going to be processing all words, any words, each and every word they hear, within an emotional context and through the filter of fresh water ~ highly fluid, absorbing, dissolving, deeply reactive and free flowing. Think of how water jiggles on the table when all the other food sits still. We are going to be the water in the glass as the world flows by us these next two weeks.
The emotional content of the sensitive and reactive crab. Mercury also is out of bounds making his emotional reactions out of the bounds and control of the ego and Sun. And it makes the South Node of Destiny be out of bounds too. Each and every day, as the Moon changes signs, we’ll be ricocheting with her lunar fluctuations. We are approaching a dark Moon so we will be releasing, releasing, releasing. Going to be a fun couple of weeks till after the next eclipse.
So what to do?
Give the benefit of doubt.
Double, triple, and quadruple check before you react out of anger or hurt or betrayal. If you said something and the person before you seems out of sorts because of it, ASK THEM WHAT THEY HEARD. What did they think you said? They probably didn’t hear you correctly. Your words went through a very emotional fluid state and were sodden and soggy by the time they reached the ears. They are and were processing in a total emotional state. None of us are processing intellectually or with a clear vision or a grasp on reality. We are in an emotional stew.
Our week before us features Mars entering Gemini ~ Mars anger, actions and his reactions are tied to what Mercury tells him to do. And Mercury is emotional this week ~ out of bounds Mercury in Cancer.
The Sun reaches his Summer Solstice point as he stops and pivots back in the sky, stationing for three days, making the longest day and the shortest night. He also enters Cancer, making the ego be all about emotions too. Emotional ego reactions.
Finally Vesta stations at 19 Aquarius asking us to redo, revise, revision our nests, home, hearth and the nurturing spaces in our lives. We can find our dream home, move, sell, buy, redecorate or release things that clutter our home and no longer serve us. A bit of pleasantness in the midst of an otherwise rocking week. It is time to get our home in shape so it supports our dream and life. This can also be an excellent time to redo your diet, food plan and body issues~ after all your first and foremost hearth and home is your body.
All the planets continue to move forward toward the next eclipse on July 1st. At that New Moon we will each be asked to make major choices in our life path as a cardinal grand cross forms in the heavens. The grand cross echoes the cross from last August when we had the initiation of the energy. Now we actually have to DO something. We’ve delayed and procrastinated long enough. The time is here. The moment is now. The future awaits.
On a bad day, while we might FEEL like we are being crucified on that grand cross forming over our heads, we are merely being asked to move forward and take plain old responsibility for our lives and our choices. We are being asked to grow up and become the adult that our chart wants us to be and become. We are moving into the next phase of our life, ready or not, here it comes.
So again, what to do? No fear. No whining. Trust the process. Your soul is in charge if you let it guide you. If you start arguing with it, everything will be more difficult. Listen to your inner wisdom. Where you are right now, you can’t see far enough down the road to know how it is going to turn out. So trust. Ask your guides, angelic and other kinds, for help and support. You are right where you are supposed to be. You are supposed to be releasing and getting ready to move on.
That isn’t a whole lot of help at moments like these but it is the truth. So release what needs to be released. If some thing or some one wants to leave your life, let them go. They are working on THEIR path which may not intersect with YOUR path any more. Wish them well and bid them adieu. Make sure to thank them for the contribution to your life. They did contribute so honor that contribution and LET THEM GO.
If they are supposed to STAY in your life, they will be back.
Lots of LONG Void Moons this week!
4:23 pm EDT Monday June 20 to 4:45 pm EDT
10:51 pm EDT Tuesday June 21 to 4:24 am EDT Thursday June 23
ALL DAY Wednesday June 22 is Void.
6:07 pm EDT Friday June 24 to 4:53 pm EDT Saturday June 25
Monday, MOON day June 20 finds the Moon in communal Aquarius with fighting closing aspects. People will be in the mood to separate with an argument today as the Moon squares Mars in the last degrees of Taurus. Stubborn separations too. Moon trines Sun so part of you is ready to let go and the other part is deeply sad at having to release and let go. New partner energy can appear in the morning so welcome it. Mars moves into Gemini and starts to become argumentative about emotional matters as he answers to out of bounds Mercury in Cancer. Watch out for over emotional reactions. You did NOT hear what they said correctly. Or they did NOT hear what YOU said correctly. Words cause trouble today.
Tuesday MARS day, June 21 Moon in Pisces is HIGHLY emotional, deeply psychic and way over the top with emotional flooding. Moon sets off parts of the grand cross by sextile offering you an opportunity to take productive if over doing action. Vesta stops to go backwards for a few months ~ reorganize the house and hearth and body. Ideas are good but probably too expensive ~ revise them into a more manageable or cost effective form. Sun enters Cancer and appears to stall on the northern most part of his journey as he begins the summer season and give us the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere. Mercury’s square to Saturn mid afternoon means No is no. It IS a firm no. And yes, they LIKED saying No to you. So ask some one else. Or go some place else to get what you want. Sun’s union to Hades means it will happen when hell freezes over. So knowing that, what DO you want to do?
Wednesday MERCURY day, June 22 the Moon is void all day long in Pisces. That makes today a great day for emotional processing that goes absolutely no place at all. Or over the top emotional processing of the events from yesterday. Mars squares Neptune ~ here is the caution. Don’t ACT on those emotions. Much easier said than done. However, Mars in Gemini will do self destructive things with emotional words. If you absolutely HAVE to do something, go swimming. Or walking by a river or the beach. Put on music and dance your butt off. Use the Mars Neptune action to INSPIRE yourself to action. Avoid drugs, drink and things that reduce your boundaries into a puddle. You won’t like what you do when that boundary is dropped. You are leaving home now. Your home or group doesn’t fit any more. Time for a new space for the next chapter of your life. Use the energy to dream a new dream or revise the dream you had. Or to review the dream you had. See what parts came true and what parts you still have to work on. Take productive action to get yourself positioned for your future. Do it on YOUR time table, one that is beneficial for YOU not their time table. If you lose it, they get their time table by default. Redirect that emotional Mars energy and don’t go tilting at windmills.
Thursday JUPITER day June 23 Moon enter Aries and the emotions of the South Node, Sun, Mercury and Mars take on Warrior and Terminator energy. People are angry and out of control today so no smart talk on the street or you might get smacked. Road rage day. Again, redirect that fire energy toward accomplishing something productive. You THINK you heard what they said but you DID FILTER it through emotions. Double check. Verify. Rephrase. Say “Did you mean to say “xyz” and repeat back to them what they said. Or rather what you heard them say. My grand mother had bad hearing in her last years of life but refused to buy a new hearing aid as she was going to “die soon” and hearing aids were expensive. As a result, she was basically deaf as a post and you had to shout at her. However, periodically, she would get MAD as a hornet at someone in her assisted living place as she had HEARD them say something disparaging. Of course, she was deaf so whatever she THOUGHT she heard was NOT what was said. You or they are my deaf grandmother. Double, triple and quadruple check what you hear today. Friends, relationships, partnership and such hang in the balance, precariously, so make sure you actually HEARD what they said. And then double check that they MEANT what they said.
Friday VENUS day June 24 Moon in Aries again makes for warrior energy. Pay particular attention to what you hear around 1:30 pm. It was probably WRONG. Re-read yesterday. Communication is crazy emotional today. Relationships can end under this energy ~ especially based on lose words.
Saturday, SATURN day June 25 Moon in Taurus makes some attempt to ground the emotional energy and reign it in. However, in some cases, the emotions are too far gone. Mercury has a semi-square with Mars so “thems fighting words” applies. Groups can blow up today. Sun has a working aspect with Jupiter so the two of them shake their heads at how emotional we folks down here on earth can get. Is this something you will actually remember when you are 95 and reviewing your life? Probably. So own those emotions and focus on what you want to create with your life.
Sunday, SUN day June 26 Moon in Taurus is still trying to ground the emotions. Sun squares Uranus so that is NOT working as the desire to blow things up and release from your confinement is running much stronger. Watch dreams upon awakening. The information is there if you decide to look. Moon trines Pluto asking us to delve deeper into our psychological understanding of who and what we are. All the people and situations in your life are there to help you evolve and grow. The goal of your being is to individuate and become your natal potential. To actuate and individuate into your chart’s highest (or lowest) potential. So give yourself a break and be kind to yourself today. You are only human. And they are only human too. What else do we have but each other?
Mundane: Anthony Weiner resigned at 2:21 pm June 16th in Brooklyn, NY. Saturn angular, on the ascendant marks the end of the line. Mars in Taurus on the dreadful fixed star Algol described the baying pack of reporter dogs seeking to rip his head off during his resignation press conference. It was a very public beheading. And, of course, the Full Moon eclipse the day before, made it a public event where a leader was removed from our midst.
I have to admit, the complete hypocrisy got to me. We can water board people, torture them, keep folks confined for years without trials, expose a covert CIA agent and kill her networks so we can invade a country that did nothing to us except refuse to do our bidding any more. And NOTHING happens to the people who did that?
We can watch our economy come to the brink of collapse due to collateralize debt swaps and wide spread mortgage fraud, see the crooks be rescued as the people who were taken advantage of teeter and fall into total destruction. We are told the people who did it to us are too big to fail so they are offered a bail out. And yet, NO ONE who did these crimes goes to jail? Millions of people are homeless or underwater on their mortgages and NO ONE is prosecuted or responsible?
Yet one progressive congressman takes pictures of his penis and we have a media circus.
Pluto is coming to 10 Capricorn. The day of reckoning draws near….
