Another important week as the STORY of the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio plays itself out in real time - the necessary dis-entanglements, the limits, the focus, the recuperation, the 'getting control of ourselves' empowerment, the renewed enthusiasm, the new/old ideas and conversations.
Let's unpack the week and I will get the Eclipse post up today.
Keep in mind, Eclipse energies pull us 'out-of-time', so alot of this week may feel like it has already happened, but it is still happening ... and will continue to PLAY OUT over the course of the next six months.
MONDAY - Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio
WEDNESDAY - Mars conjunct Neptune
THURSDAY - Sun trine Pluto, Mercury sextile Jupiter
SATURDAY - Sun conjunct Mercury (retrograde)
On MONDAY (Sunday night) - the Scorpio Moon opposes the Taurus Sun giving us this month's Full Moon - our annual Full Moon in Scorpio, conjunct the Nodes of Fate makes this one a powerful Total Lunar Eclipse designed to drive home this year's Nodal lessons - we talked about them first HERE.
The Eclipse post is HERE.
On WEDNESDAY - Mars, finishing up in Pisces on his way home to Aries, the ancient ruler of Scorpio and modern ruler of Aries (so Venus and Jupiter are answering to Mars now) meets up with Pisces ruler Neptune. Wet weather. Actions that miss their mark. Catching a cold/virus/bad mood.
The best use of Mars/Neptune - using our
intuition. Using our imagination. Offering compassion or forgiveness.
Using music/art. Praying. Meditating. Releasing our
compulsion/obsession/need for control. Maybe taking a rest - something
here looks freaking exhausting. This speaks of both inaction - a need for rest or sleep/lack of motivation, etc - AND unlimited action/limits removed. Just keep in mind Neptune/Pisces makes it easy to deceive ourselves/be deceived by others. Also this aspect can make unhealthy actions extremely intoxicating - one drink leading to three, etc, so be aware of this, too. Stay SOBER.
Mars/Neptune is extremely well-timed to follow the BIG Scorpio Eclipse.
After the deep Scorpionic purging within the
collective and within our personal lives - secrets, obsessions,
compulsions, manipulations, intimacies, shared resources (debt, inheritances, other people's money), sex, life/death scenarios, reproduction, past-life entanglements, ancestral IOUs being marked paid-in-full - now the ground is being cleared. Weeds are being pulled. Diets are being cleaned up and lightened.
This Eclipse cycle might be the perfect time for surgery to have something removed. And this could, of course, and most likely WILL BE a metaphoric extraction - which would also leave us tired and needing to recuperate.
And, so, well, Mars/Neptune.
On THURSDAY we get two powerful/positive aspects.
The Sun, at 28 degrees Taurus trines Pluto in Capricorn and Mercury (retrograde in Gemini) sextiles Jupiter at 1 degree Aries.
Earth trines are excellent energy to BUILD something practical. This is Taurus/Cappy, so we are taking our time with this, building something to last. One brick at a time.
Sun/Pluto is an excellent time to get control (Pluto) of ourselves (Sun). Where do we need more integrity? How can we act with greater integrity?
Retrograde Mercury's sextile - creative opportunity - with expansive Jupiter speaks of greater optimism/faith. GOOD NEWS. With Mercury retrograde, maybe an old opportunity comes back around. This won't be the 'final' word on anything because Mercury is still retrograde, but could spark a new idea/conversation/forward movement.
On SATURDAY, the Sun, at 0 degrees Gemini now, meets up with a retrograde Mercury.
Here is the mid-point of Mercury's retrograde journey. The Sun brings illumination. CLARITY. Mercury's delays/re-thinking should make some sense now. This is a good aspect to receive an answer/make a choice. New options can open up. Keep in mind, Mercury is STILL retrograde, so again, there isn't a "final" anything here, but there should be new (but not totally new) information/conversations now.
