New Moon Phase: beginnings

Moon in Cancer

Ruling Mahavidya: Dhumavati (Goddess of Smoke) and Kali (The Destroyer)

Skill: uncomplicate things, aim for simplicity

Negative Imprint: disguise; stagnation

Positive Imprint: sincerity; progress

Instincts, impulses, and desires reach heightened proportions today as the New Moon phase continues.

But we want to be smart about this because Mercury remains retrograde with the energy of "a cat arguing with a mouse."  Many things, especially our thoughts about ourselves, are locked in a loop - a circuit - of self-defeat and negativity.  The energy is deeply imprinted with the tendency to look at things and feel deeply unsatisfied.

The feeling of dissatisfaction is one of the things from which this month's energy tries to liberate us.

Inherent also in today's energetic signature is the polarity of disguise versus sincerity.  In other words hiding/faking or being real. 

When walls come down, we see what's real.  We see who or what is trying to push forward, advancing, or pretending to be more than they are.  We also see the beauty and value of simplicity.  We see what truly matters in life.

Aiming for simplicity takes us out of the space-time pace that is too busy to see simplicity, and therefore draws us off course.

Along this line, it is very important to integrate fun today.  We are coming upon a very intense astrological window of time (July 1 - July 12) so we want to really work on grounding ourselves in nature and getting in good alignment now.  Spend some time doing something that you enjoy.  Recapture something that was fun for you as a child (or something that you wanted to do but couldn't).  Return to something you love.

I will post a separate report tomorrow, as the Moon will move into Leo, joining the Black Moon for a couple of days, and putting new energetic elements in play.

Instincts and impulses are strong today, but remember to slow down, uncomplicate matters, aim for simplicity, and keep it real.  Though it may appear that we are putting less energy into things, in reality, tremendous progress will be made.

New Moon Phase: beginnings

Moon in Cancer

Ruling Mahavidya: Dhumavati (Goddess of Death) and Kali (The Destroyer)

Skill: pivot with the changes

Negative Imprint: hopelessness about the future; fearful; dependent

Positive Imprint: sunniness about the future; loving; independent

A month-long Revolution of Consciousness begins with the New Moon in Cancer today.  The Sabian symbol for this month-long energy is "game birds feathering their nests."  This energy lays and fortifies groundwork and structures.  Old groundwork and structures that are loose and crumbling will further degrade.  So this means the things (people, places, things, relationships) that have been breaking up or breaking apart for some time reach their limits.  This brings liberation.

We have a month of revolution to bring liberation.

This will play out in a lot of different ways in the world at large and our own personal worlds.  The pain, ties, restrictions, and limits that have bound us (and no longer serve even to teach us) are freed.  No matter what happens this month or how it looks at the moment, liberation is what is really happening.  We will remember this.

The next cycle is like a month-long First Quarter Moon phase - the time to step out and take action.  Mercury is retrograde until July 1, so don't jump the gun.  The month of August, the Leo cycle, is also a First Quarter cycle, so we have two months to step out and take action.  This energy lunges us forward or in a new direction, but we want to temper this until Mercury stations direct.  Mercury is still re-arranging things.

The shift out of the struggles and challenges that took place in June (the Crescent cycle) brings a remarkable change in the energy.  We are more than ready to grab hold of this, aren't we?  This is the time in the cycle of life that is like the seed that has traveled through the earth and is now popping through the surface to air and light.  This is most welcome and joyful.

Not exactly to my surprise, Kali, the Mahavidya from whom the nine other Mahavidyas spring, joins Dhumavati this month.  She did this with Chinnamasta, the Mahavidya who was on duty during the Aries lunar cycle.  The Aries cycle was also a "cardinal" cycle, like the one beginning today.  The cardinal signs are Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn.  Cardinal energy is pivotal.  It pivots us in a new direction.   The cardinal signs are the cardinal points north, south, east, and west.  Big shifts have been happening during cycles that are cardinal cycles, so the opportunity to mold reality is excellent.  Raw power is also in abundance right now with the particular combination of planets and the energetic degrees they are emanating.  The Archons salivate at this opportunity.

During the Aries cycle (basically the month of April 2014), Kali and Chinnamasta, both fierce warriors, took the brunt of the Archontic assault on humanity.  The New Moon in Aries was the beginning of an assault of great proportion.  It is the counter-action to the fact that Gaia Sophia is completely awake and fully engaged with humanity.  Forces opposed to humanity do not want this and are trying to thwart it.

Kali and Dhumavati, aspects of Gaia Sophia, are another formidable combination, and will do the same thing over the next month that Kali and Chinnamasta did in April.  They disempowered the efforts of the new world order and their Archon masters.  As I detailed in the "Shift in the Game" audio recording (available on the front page of www.oraclereport.com and on the Audio page), the Eris Point energy is activated this month, providing a chance at these negative forces' favorite pastime - trying to enslave. 

Kali and Dhumavati are right on the field with us, allied.  With those two in our ranks, well, we look around and smile and they wink back.  Higher forces have our backs.

I will record more about Kali and Dhumavati's alliance with humanity in a follow-up to "Shift in the Game." 

(P.S. Dhumavati brings crow medicine.  Be on the lookout.)

Balsamic Moon Phase: release

Moon in Gemini/Cancer

Ruling Mahavidya: Bagalamukhi

Skill: stand at the crossroad and receive information

On the eve of the New Moon in Cancer, we reflect back on the past month and release any thoughts, feelings, and beliefs that we do not want to carry with us into the next cycle.  Strong healing energies flood the collective to assist us with this today. 

If you divide the year up into eight equal parts that represent the eight moon phases, the past month has been like a long Crescent Moon phase.  Crescent energy is the toughest.  It challenges us.  It can feel like a struggle against the tide.  It is easy to give up our hopes, wishes, intentions, and projects.  The Universe asks us if we are serious about what we envision. 

The struggle to stay the course produces growth.  This past month has not been easy.  A particularly intense Mercury retrograde, which requires us to work harder at most everything, has helped us see what is not working and what needs to change.

Energetically we are at a crossroad.  Tomorrow's New Moon brings a great shift, as we change directions with many things in our lives.

It's a good idea to hit the pause button today.  Slow down and go into "receive" mode.  The veils between the worlds are thinnest on the last day before a New Moon.  Guidance, insight, answers, information, and messages abound.  To pick this up, we have to be of a certain mindset of openness.  The outer world continues to swirl with the energetics of Mars opposing Uranus, but today we stop. 

We stand at the crossroad, awaiting the shift, grateful for the coming release of the Crescent energy.  The Wisdom Goddess Bagalamukhi waits with us on the last day of her journey with us.  She has been a welcome companion this month.  Let's bid her a fond farewell as she turns over duty to her sister Dhumavati tomorrow.

Balsamic Moon Phase: transform

Moon in Gemini

Ruling Mahavidya:  Bagalamukhi

Skill: make a change

Negative Imprint: entitlement, conflict, aggression, fear, argument, throwing people "under the bus," domination, intimidation, elitism, impulsivity

Positive Imprint: respect, collaboration, true strength, defense of natural world order, confidence, inner authority, perseverance, creation of beautiful forms and structures, ancient traditions

Energies come together today to help us (finally?) see that it's time to make a change and that forces are in play to facilitate those changes.  Personal changes ripple into changes within the collective.  We change and the world changes.  We answer a call to shift and transform and are rewarded with liberation from what binds us.  Change is one of the things that frees us from limitations.

Since we are a species working past it's trauma, the word change can makes us cramp up and resist out of fear of impending pain.  But it doesn't have to be this way anymore.  We are grounded with the planet, the divine Gaia Sophia, growing up and out of our problems.

We are seeds that have been planted, have popped out of their shells, have rooted themselves, have grown through the soil, and are now preparing to break through the surface.  Light and air are on the way.  This is the cycle of life.  Life is change.

Since we are in a time of great change - an energetic Renaissance of humanity- the energies are intense.  The list of historical negative imprints for the day is long, but so is the list of positive imprints that we can make.  We can change it.

We are at a major junction - a crossroad - and most everyone can feel it.  Conditions are ripe for transformation and liberation.  It may not look pretty, but, it is.  Don't be fooled by the appearance that things are falling into an oblivion in which nothing will survive.  That's what the Archons - the Terminators - want us to think.  They are crashing and cracking things because they are having a tantrum.  The jig is up and they are panicking.  They know they have to pull out the stops because the Spirit of Wisdom has returned and she is engaging with all of humanity.

Our role is to arouse ourselves to personal change so that the macro-changes are not so jarring.  Each of us is being divinely guided if we choose to see and hear on the inside and watch and listen outside (as in outdoors and in nature).  Turn away from the tricks of the matrix and turn to the wisdom that is offered by engaging with the planet.  Nature teaches us everything we need to know.

It's a little early to start celebrating Independence Day (or maybe Re-Independence Day and you don't have to be American to enjoy the spirit), but truly that is what is happening energetically.  The matrix shows a different version.  Fireworks will certainly ensue with the volatility of things, but see into it and beyond it.  We can handle anything that comes our way.

Balsamic Moon Phase: release

Moon in Gemini

Ruling Mahavidya: Bagalamukhi (The Paralyzer, The Storm-Calmer)

Skill: be like the wise old owl in the tree

Negative Imprint: conflict, aggression, pushiness

Positive Imprint: cooperation, personal discovery

The intense energy being distributed by Mars moving into opposition with Uranus continues today.  As discussed, things are cracking up, loosening up, and breaking apart.  Yesterday's 7.9 magnitude earthquake off Alaska evidences this.  Uranus is a powerful force.

Uranus moved into Aries, the sign in which it is currently transiting, on March 11, 2011, when the massive 9.1 earthquake was recorded in Japan.

If the energy can do this to the planet, imagine what it is doing to us!

Uranus is not only a powerful force, but it is a force for change.  It brings sudden, unexpected, dramatic changes.  It is like lightning.  Mars' influence adds impulsive, fiery, and aggressive elements.

But the Sun also plays in today as it moves to the 4th degree of Cancer - the energy of "a cat arguing with a mouse" (the degree of Mercury's retrograde).

With this energy, we expect the unexpected, but the combination of these energies tells us that we have a highly emotional (even volatile) day today with increased difficulty in interpersonal and telecommunications, arguments and misunderstandings, projection of anger and aggression (or turning it on yourself), and things coming from out of the blue.  We can also expect things to break apart (and even come back together in a new way).

Just like the Earth's crust, people's psyches crack under these energies.

According to the ancient Gnostics, humanity was never intended to develop in a system with as many planets as ours.  The Gnostics tell us the Divine Beings in the Galactic Center who "coalesced" our genome, Sophia and her male counterpart Thelete, intended us to develop under a Sun, Moon, planet system.  The Archons, nemeses of humanity, created the other planets in their mistaken belief that they are gods.  Nevertheless, we become multi-faceted under the barrage of energies from a multitude of planets.  We become brilliant.

Though everyone is experiencing this, if you have a planet located at 13-19 degrees of Aries, Cancer, Libra, or Capricorn, you are undergoing extreme "faceting."  The energy is "upgrading" all of us, but some are destined for massive transformation at this point in time.

To navigate the energy, we will invoke the shamanic skill of being like a wise old owl in a tree, peering out and observing what is happening, but out of the maelstrom.  We understand the nature of the energy in which we are bathed and adjust accordingly.

If you are prompted to make a change or if Uranus is making a change for you, trust that this is in Divine Order.  At it's highest octave, Uranus puts us where we need to be (emotionally, mentally, physically) when we haven't been able to do it for ourselves.  My teacher always said, "We are saved by our rejections."

Emotions lead us to inner wisdom today.  Follow along, but remember that a sage accompanies us - the Wisdom Goddess Bagalamukhi.  On these final days of our journey and instruction with her this year, call upon her for assistance if things become overwhelming.  She will steer you back on course.

(Note: The exact opposition of Mars and Uranus occurs tomorrow, Wednesday, June 25 at 4:25 am ET/ 8:25 UT.)

Balsamic Moon Phase: release, transform

Moon in Taurus

Ruling Mahavidya: Bagalamukhi (The Storm Calmer)

Skill: flow with change

Negative Imprint: projecting anger outward or inward

Positive Imprint: clarity and objectivity

We may need to call upon Bagalamukhi the Storm Calmer over the next few days.  Mars is opposing Uranus, making exact conjunction Wednesday, June 25 at 4:25 am ET.  Until then, bombs drop, anger rises, surprises shock, accidents happen, lightning strikes, and change ensues.  This is a massive transit that should not be underestimated.

As discussed in the latest audio recording about the upcoming lunar cycle, titled "Shift in the Game," Uranus has moved to the 17th degree of Aries with the energy for things to break, crack, loosen, and split - especially minds.  You can only be but so prepared with Uranus because the energy always comes in unexpected ways, but everyone should understand the nature of this energy to break, loosen, and crack.  If you have not listened to my latest audio (available on the front page of www.oraclereport.com) it is probably the most important recording I have made.  The shift in the game over the next month will be dramatic.

Uranus puts things as they should be, but the influence of Mars exacerbates the manner in which the changes happen.  Changes don't "unfold" with this combination; they are abrupt.  The energy takes on an aggressive flair, with strong projection of anger onto others (which causes schisms in interpersonal relationships and the collective) and strong introjection of anger onto ourselves (which causes self-loathing and depression).  The "incidence of incidences" increases sharply.  Take extra precautions while driving.  Note also that anxiety and insomnia increase under this transit and will dissipate after it is over.

The energy also brings a level of objectivity that is uncommon.  We see things crystal-clearly.  This serves to position us differently as the New Moon approaches on June 27th.

The Balsamic Moon phase is the time between the last lunar cycle and the next.  It is the time when we "weed out" our psyches.  We "pull out" or release what we do not want to carry into the next cycle.  It's the time when the veils between the worlds are thin and magic is thick.  Messages from Spirit abound.  We enter into discourse with the Divine.  We are guided.

As this energy builds, take refuge from the storm with the Wisdom Goddess Bagalamukhi.  She calms.

Saturday, June 21 - Sunday, June 22, 2014

Third Quarter Moon Phase: complete

Moon in Aries

Ruling Mahavidya: Bagalamukhi (The Paralyzer, The Storm-Calmer)

Skill: accept personal responsibility

Negative Imprint: recklessness, carelessness

Positive Imprint: attention, renewal

Saturday brings the energy of the entire cycle to a head.  We accept or assume personal responsibility for where we are in the process of our growth and development.  It's the Solstice, the longest or shortest day, depending where on Gaia Sophia you are, and we reach a turning point in how we see and understand things - particularly ourselves.

This energy enables us to take charge and rise to the occasion.  What have you wanted to stand up and change, like an aroused striker around a factory?  What is your standard now?  What is being reborn in you?  What have you wanted to find?

All of the newness and change sometimes has us overlooking or rejecting "the old" too quickly.  We build the new from the old, so honor the contribution of what has been meaningful in the past as it morphs into the future.

Power issues and power struggles are inherent in this energy.  This happens when there are dramatic shifts and turning points.  When people feel like they are losing their place, losing their value, or losing the familiar, they can become fearful and reactionary.  Anger ensures. 

If the struggle is within yourself, accept responsibility for it.  See it for what it is and then stand up to it.  The power to end the internal struggle is strong today, and you can call on this month's Wisdom Goddess, Bagala, to paralyze or end the struggle.

Sunday brings the ability to get "unstuck" or out of limbo.  We rise above the challenges we've faced over the past month with a larger perspective.  This energy is intense.  It can feel relentless with one thing after another.  The pummeling of energy serves to strengthen us on the last day of this lunar cycle.  (Sunday is the last full day of the Third Quarter Moon phase, the energetic ending of the cycle.)  Whatever has been welling up inside us has a strong push on Sunday.

Enjoy the Solstice and I will see you back on Monday as we move in between the veils of the worlds for the Balsamic Moon phase.

Third Quarter Moon Phase: complete

Moon in Pisces/Aries

Ruling Mahavidya: Bagalamukhi (The Paralyzer, The Storm-Calmer)

Skill: listen to music

Negative Imprint: arrogance, jealousy, deceptions

Positive Imprint: passion, enthusiasm

Melodies change today and the answers to things we need to know can be found by listening to music.

The energetic signature of today's energy is all about music.  Music is one of the finer forms of information dissemination.  Many things are carried on musical waves.  It's easier for messages from higher sources (higher Self, soul family, Wisdom Goddesses - everything) to be carried and communicated when these musical astrological frequencies align.  Mindsets, moods, perspectives, and outlooks can be radically changed by music.  It also works quickly.

As a species, our use of the gift of music is one of our finest achievements.

Listening to music today takes us to a new place.  The Sun's conjunction with Mercury enhances the effects.  It's a "salve" for the soul as intense change is underway.  If things are changing up in your life, calm the storm by listening to music.  If fun has eluded you lately, put on a favorite from your younger years.  If you seek a higher perspective on something, you will be guided to the appropriate music to choose.

The Third Quarter Moon phase begins today.  This is the "completion phase" of the cycle.  We analyze where we stand with all that has transpired since the New Moon (May 28).  This cycle has been about strengthening our inner selves, standing up for ourselves, and more of our true selves coming forward.  At the Third Quarter Moon phase we take responsibility for our part in things.  We see where we need to tighten up or "do better." If we take some sort of action to rectify things we've fallen short on, all the better.

Third Quarter Moon phase is ruled by all of Capricorn and the first half of Aquarius.  The Capricorn (Saturn) dominance can make Third Quarter phases feel overly-heavy or responsible and "not fun."  We tend to be harder on ourselves.  Don't let this element keep you from receiving messages you need today.

As you are out finding beauty in the natural world, don't forget to snap a picture and send it in to share with everyone.

(Today's report courtesy of The Cars, Led Zeppelin, Amos Lee, Garbage, and Grammy-award winning artist and wise owl Constance Demby.  My tastes lean toward other genres, but Constance's music takes you to a whole new level.  Highly recommended.)

Disseminating Moon Phase: share

Moon in Pisces

Ruling Mahavidya: Bagalamukhi (The Paralyzer, The Storm-Calmer)

Skill: look at things a different way; what's the true value?

Negative Imprint: breaking connections; feeling abandoned; invading privacy

Positive Imprint: making connections; feeling supported; giving space

Many thanks to everyone who participated in yesterday's group meditation.  It is an honor to file out on the field of consciousness and join in with galactic frequencies.  Energetically, it was a bombardment.  Definite marks were made and will ripple out to influence our experience of life, personally and collectively.  It is game-changing.

Today, links, connections, and bridges are made - links between people, links between projects, links between ideas, links between thoughts, links between the past and the present, links between feelings. 

The refreshment, revitalization, and reorientation that has been happening is enabling these links to be made.

Another major catalyst for this is the shift in what we value.  Today we discover what people, places, and things are truly worth to us.  We shift toward revering these things.  Great comfort comes from this realization.  But there may also be feelings of guilt for not seeing the value sooner.  Accept the reality and the responsibility of this, but focus on the link that has been made.  Learn the lesson and endeavor to always see what is truly of value to you.

The theme of "appearance" is also dominant today.  The appearance of things is easily manipulated because it is based on a plethora of perceptions.  It is subjective.  And it is creative.  The appearance of something, someone, or some situation changes today.  The change you perceive may be monumental.  It serves to bring expansion and growth.

The common denominator today is about second chances and relief from pressure and burdens.  We are freed to get on with something.

As a child, one of my favorite books was James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl.  (My favorite teacher read Dahl's books aloud to the class every day after lunch.  There is much value in reading to children; it is almost a lost art.)  The book is about looking at things a different way.  What looks like a peach to some is actually home and vehicle for others.  The shift in perception requires an openness to imagination.  Dare to engage your imagination today.  Dare to look at things a different way.

Check back later today for another audio update and elaboration on how the energies are playing out.  I will be looking ahead to the next lunar month, the Cancer cycle, which begins June 27, 2014, and is a firecracker for sure.

Disseminating Moon Phase: share

Moon in Aquarius/Pisces

Ruling Mahavidya: Bagala (The Paralyzer, The Storm-Calmer)

Skill: be like a sunflower and turn to the light

The heavens unite today for a party of galactic proportion.  The Earth moves to the degree of the Galactic Center, forming an alignment called a "conjunction" in astrology.  Energetic resonance results.

The energetic signature for the this degree is "a sculptor's vision taking form."

The ancients understood and passed down to us, barely, knowledge of the nature of the Galactic Center and the nature of Earth.  The Galactic Center is the home of the Generators of Life.  They are beings who configure codes of life and seed them into the galaxy for growth.  They generate life from raw life force.

The raw life force is bestowed to them by the Creator, called the Originator.

The Earth is the embodiment of one of these Generators.  Her name is Sophia and she is the Generator of Wisdom.  A female Generator is understood by us to be a goddess; therefore she is also called the Goddess of Wisdom.

Through a series of events that are detailed in the greatest story, she is pulled out of the Galactic Center, her home, and begins morphing into physicality, eventually becoming the planet Earth.  She is thus Gaia-Sophia.

An energetic reunion with her home occurs when the Earth reaches the degree of the Galactic Center.  The nature of the energy is creativity - as in from the Creator.  It's like a sculptor's vision taking form.  It's the power for concrete manifestation.  It's the power of life.

Under these energetic influences, an influx of energy for revitalization occurs.  Energy for life is sent.  Life.  Living 

We celebrate the value of life and living today.

In response, negativity is a strong tempter today.  If you experience this, turn your face to the Sun or to the stars.  Aim like a sunflower.  There's a higher energetic frequency to connect  to today and it helps us grow.  Look away from the darkness.  Turn toward the light.  Something much grander than we know if happening.

Meditation scheduled for noon EST/ 4:00 pm UTC.

Oracle Report meditations are never dogmatic with strict rules because we uphold the principle of freedom.  Modify these guidelines with your own touches and preferences.  It only makes the endeavor more beautiful.  And if you cannot join at the specified time, you can hitch on at any time later, since the wave will already be in place.  Here are the general guidelines:

Sophia-Galactic Center Meditation - Tuesday, June 17 at noon EST/ 4:00 pm UTC (and anytime thereafter):

1. Put in place your personal protection (Medicine Wheel of Protection, surround yourself in a pillar of light, etc.)
2. Go outside if possible.  Feel your connection with the Earth, Gaia Sophia.  The latitude and longitude coordinates of where you are is where you are anchored in the grid of earth.  In your minds eye, pull the energy up from the Earth and through your body, out through the top of your head, and launch it toward the sky.  Aim like Sagittarius, the Archer.  The energy is going to 26 Sagittarius 22 in the sky - Sophia's home and our second home.  Say "home."  Feel home. 
3. Allow the inflow back from the Galactic Center, down through your head, down through your body, and back into the Earth.  This completes the circuit.
4. Do something celebratory and  make a day of it as best you can.  The expansion of consciousness that comes from aligning and allying with our First Home (the Earth) and our Second Home (the Galactic Center) happens one day each year.  Open up to receiving.

Disseminating Moon Phase: share, give feedback

Moon in Aquarius

Ruling Mahavidya: Bagala (The Paralyzer, The Storm-Calmer)

Skill: adjust to change

Negative Imprint: arrogance; feeling unworthy and out of place

Positive Imprint: humility; acknowledging everyone's place and level of understanding

By the time this report goes up, the Moon will already have contacted the Black Moon (by opposition in astrological terms) for the month.  This is a nice "pass" for us, especially since we've been under sustained energetic rains from the Sun, the Galactic Center, and Mercury and Neptune's retrogrades. 

Those with the Sun or Black Moon in Leo or Aquarius (or anyone having a Black Moon transit to one of their planets) are more likely to have conditions and events develop today and tomorrow which facilitate a shedding of the old as the new is revealing.  The Black Moon rules the cycle of growth, which is a symbolic process of "death" and "rebirth."  Since the Black Moon is in Leo, issues with changes of all kinds - change to the order, arrangement, status, routine, power structure, power levels, life path - abound.  To some degree, these themes are in play for everyone today and tomorrow.

At the core, people want to feel like they matter today.  We want to feel like we have a place in the grand scheme of things.  We want to be acknowledged.  We keenly feel any sort of abandonment.  In actuality, what solves any quandaries that develop today is our own acknowledgement of ourselves.  We attach to the fact that everyone has a part to play and each are necessary and important.  This recognition is part of the energetic process that is going on this month that has more of our true selves coming forward, more of our true selves showing up. 

In kind, acknowledging others goes a long way today.

Even though today's energy has things coming forward and coming to light, it is not a day to push things.  Our roots with the planet Gaia-Sophia are being reinforced and strengthened.  This means we are growing.  Our "beings" or energetic fields are growing.  Pushing will only cause frustration.

Over the weekend, the Full Moon revealed and illuminated things.  We gained wisdom.  Now, in the natural order of things, the Disseminating Moon phase begins.  This is the time when communication is highlighted.  Disseminating Moon phase is the time when we share our thoughts, feelings, and ideas with others (and the Universe, Spirit, Sophia - however you view it) and receive feedback.  We also listen to others and give feedback.  The act of listening to others often provides solutions, insights, and answers we seek.  Disseminating phase engages our sense of hearing.  It's a talkative time.  We need to keep in mind that communications are under stress with Mercury retrograde at the degree of "a cat arguing with a mouse."  Communications need to be productive, not just a debate.  We stay true when we communicate respectfully.  No one has to take on board anything that doesn't resonate for them.

Tomorrow, Gaia Sophia, the divine being embodied as our planet, has an energetic homecoming - a reunion - and we are invited.  The Earth will be in conjunction with the Galactic Center, her home, tomorrow at high noon EST.   To celebrate, a group meditation is planned.  The purpose of this meditation is to strengthen alliance between Sophia, the Sun, humanity, and the galaxy.  It's good for the energetics of everything.

Oracle Report meditations are never dogmatic with strict rules because we uphold the principle of freedom.  Modify these guidelines with your own touches and preferences.  It only makes the endeavor more beautiful.  And if you cannot join at the specified time, you can hitch on at any time later, since the wave will already be in place.  Here are the general guidelines:

Sophia-Galactic Center Meditation - Tuesday, June 17 at noon EST/ 4:00 pm UTC (and anytime thereafter):

Full Moon Phase: enlightenment

Moon in Capricorn

Ruling Mahavidya: Bagalamukhi (The Paralyzer, The Storm-Calmer)

Skill: let go of control

Negative Imprint: resistance to change; denying self and needs; struggle

Positive Imprint: release; flow with change; embracing self and needs

As the Full Moon phase continues, this weekend's energy moves quickly.  It moves us forward, moves us to take up things we have wanted, moves us toward what is better for us.

With fast-moving energy like this, I usually advise that we slow down.  But not this time.  This time we let the wave take us where it will.  It's not as much surrender as it is willingly letting something else have a turn at directing the course.  This "something" is the divine force of the Universe.

When we play with others, we take turns.  This weekend, it's the Universe's turn.

You can also think about it like taking a ride on a brand new, death-defying, super roller coaster.

If you aren't inclined to giving up control, this energy asks you to try it.  You might like it.  The Moon is in Capricorn, which rules control and likes order, making this a more advanced task.

When we give up control, our imaginations are activated.  All sorts of magical things happen.  Clues, messages, and inspiration become illuminated.  Freeing our minds of expectations and outcomes enables another force, one that protects and guides us, to engage with us.

This weekend, let go and just follow along.

Full Moon Phase: illumination

Moon in Sagittarius/Capricorn

Ruling Mahavidya: Bagalamukhi (The Paralyzer, The Storm-Calmer)

Skill: be like the wise owl who jumps higher in the tree for a larger view

Negative Imprint: inflexibility

Positive Imprint: flexibilty

A frenzied storm is being conjured on the chessboard of world events at the exact time a sparkling wave of dancing light beams its way from the Galactic Center to the world.

You could consider it a battle between swords and torches.

The frenzied storm that is much ado this Friday the 13th Full Moon is arousing change and reorientation.  Behaviors, actions, and feelings tend to be erratic, impulsive, and bizarre.  The energy has been intense, to say the least.  It's radical.  It's a lot to manage.  I will discuss the frenzied storm of the chessboard  and where that is leading us through July in an audio that will be posted later today.

But, for the purposes of today's report, which is to present a guide for navigation through the energy, we will jump above the chessboard and focus on a larger picture.  We view it from a higher vantage point.  Wise owls jump higher in the tree when needed.

From a higher vantage point, we see that the field of possibilities is rearranging, reorienting, and resetting.  Opportunities are opening.  Sparks of energy are raining down us in volumes.  It's an inundation of light.

With this comes turning points in our lives.  New ways are shown - new ways of thinking, in particular.  It's a good idea to not dismiss too much right now.  Open up your boundaries and take on board information you made not have been as open to in the past or new information that is coming to you.  (Blow out your own mind space by opening up room for new ideas so something doesn't have to do it for you.  Doing this is a high expression of this "radical" energy.)

To navigate today's energy, stay open and flexible.  Recognize that circumstances in people's lives and in the world at large are changing rapidly under this energy.  Don't judge things too soon or take impulsive action.  Maintain a firm connection with the Earth by spending even just a minute outdoors several times today.  The frenzied storm is waging everywhere and it's easy for people to "lose it."  The cure is simple:  Spend time outside.  Repeat as needed.  Do this and you will experience this supermassive solar, galactic, earthly Full Moon phase in a very enlightening way.

As always, let's keep things real and find beauty as the field of possibilities changes shape.

Gibbous Moon Phase: trust

Moon in Sagittarius

Ruling Mahavidya: Bagalamukhi (The Paralyzer, The Storm-Calmer)

Skill: find joy

Negative Imprint: heaviness; turning from nature; not participating

Positive Imprint: lightness; turning to nature; participating

A lovely event is underway.  As the Moon waxes Full and the Winds of Change rage and as people become more unbalanced, waves of soothing energy come to us this straight from the Galactic Center.

Tonight's Full Moon (00:11 am ET/ 04:11 am UT) is in range of the degree of the Galactic Center, flooding us with frequencies that will reorient us.  The energy reinforces the energy set in motion back at the New Moon on ___  that unfolds all month (the energy of building inner strength and coming forward with ourselves).  Now, with the Full Moon comes the fullest expression of the New Moon energy.

This soothing wave will be in effect during the entire Full Moon phase.  It will help to moderate the super-intense energies we've had this week, but it is also going to repair many things.  We get "straightened up."  The wave stabilizes our mental, emotional, and physical bodies.  The chaos that is being pushed within the human collective by outside forces meets energy from none other than the Galactic Center - the Gnostic Pleroma - the home of life.

This energy will only strengthen those working for light and natural world order - the Lightworkers, the Wise Owls.

In the world around us, anyone who is not grounded with the planet will be inclined to be taken deeper into the insanity of the matrix.  People's actions and reactions are likely to continue to be intense and dramatic.  Even bigger headlines may be made.  But the outcome of these things will not be what is intended because a wild card is introduced with this wave from the Galactic Center.  Full Moons bring a fever.  The wild wave gifts us with breaking the fever.

By all means, go outside and reinforce your link with the planet today.  This will enhance your reception of the wave's energies.

This report leans on the mystical side, but there are mundane energies in effect as always.  Today's energy tries to bring people together to further goals and projects.  The highest expression of the energy invokes a "party-like" atmosphere to celebrate the simple things in life.  The other octave is not feeling good enough to join in or to enjoy simplicity.  There is a tendency to stereotype or not take people or things seriously. 

Today also tries to bring some air and light to things.  It frees up clutter of the body, mind, and soul.  We evaluate whether certain things (beliefs, thoughts, projects, relationships) remain relevant, useful, and advantageous to see what needs to be discarded.

If you feel like you are stuck with something, this energy will try to move things to some degree.  It's hard to get forward momentum during Mercury retrograde, so don't be too hard on yourself or try to push.

Happy Full Moon!

(Another X-flare was released yesterday.  If anyone is able to find the time of this event, please email me. 

Also, I will be recording an audio update to accompany this wave of energy and how the Sabian symbol of the Full Moon - "immigrants entering a new country" - is in play.  If you don't follow alternative news, the borders of the US have essentially and not coincidentally been taken down in the last several days and people are flooding in.  No matter where you stand on this issue, the timing is most interesting and indicative of a larger plan.)

Gibbous Moon Phase: trust

Moon in Scorpio/Sagittarius

Ruling Mahavidya: Bagalamukhi (The Paralyzer, The Storm-Calmer)

Skill: take command of your emotions and channel them productively

Negative Imprint: emotions running amuck; falsity; superficiality

Positive Imprint:  emotions creating things; truth; meaningfulness

What's emerging today?  Conditions are set for the continued building of inner strength and something inside of us coming forward in the outer world.  There are three major themes in play:

1) Emotions run very, very high and can take the better of us.  This runs the gamut of emotions, but especially if we feel there is an injustice (against ourselves or others,) if we are fixated on a string of "failures" or "bad" decisions, or if we are trying to "enlighten" others.  There is a tendency for people to be pushy, so it's best to not push issues or push people too far.  It's very easy to place blame today, but what is actually trying to develop is a change to the status quo.  This energy reinforces the argumentativeness that is so prominent right now (due to the degree of Mercury's retrograde - "a cat arguing with a mouse" - and the Sabian symbol for this month - "aroused strikes around a factory").  Remember that interpersonal communications are hindered right now, even as we take a stand for ourselves.  Don't force anything today because the potential for explosive resistance is high.

2) A conflict between needs and desires can ensue.  Both are valid.  Desire is not a bad thing; it shows that we are alive.  Desire is a human quality that forges tremendous creativity.  But when desires run amuck they cause chaos in our lives.  We lose sight of things.  The desire for instant gratification is strong today, so stay focused on the reasons behind the needs/desires and you will stay on course.

3) Superficiality, facades, and pretense are prominent.  Make sure something or someone is what or who they present before getting on board because things are easily presented as more than what they actually are.  This would include signing contracts - triple check them.  Be aware of the potential for things to be sneaky today. 

We will stay in command of our emotions today and not let them command us.  Express them as needed, but don't let them run away with you.  Stay sane by connecting with nature.  Go outside.  We are hurtling through space in the cocoon of a divine being and we are loved.  We are loved for our depth of feeling and our ability to dream up beauty.  Let's use all of this emotional energy to change the dream today.

Gibbous Moon Phase: trust

Moon in Scorpio

Ruling Mahavidya: Bagalamukhi (The Storm-Calmer)

UPDATE 12:20 pm ET/ 6:20 pm UT:  The Sun released two x-flares today - X2.2 at 7:42 am ET/ 11:42 am UT and an X1.5 at 8:52 am ET/ 12:52 pm UT.  We look at the degree of the Sun and the degree of the Moon to understand the nature of the flares' energies.  The Sabian symbol for the degree of the Sun today is "a cafeteria with an abundance of choices."  At the time of the first flare, the Moon was at 14 Scorpio, exactly opposite Venus, but more interestingly, on November 5, 2013, when the Sun was at 14 Scorpio, a powerful X-3 flare was released.  Mercury was retrograde at that time as well.  14 Scorpio is "telephone linemen at work installing new connections."  14 Scorpio always brings intensity, but it rectifies difficulties with communications - the main culprit to all of the troubles that have happened over the last few days.  The second flare occurred when the Moon had moved to 15 Scorpio, "children playing around five mounds of sand."  This energy takes who we are and makes us better.  It unlocks latent talent.  So, from this gift from the Sun (the divine being Sabaoth according to Gnostic texts), the ultimate energy (X-flares) for adding many more possibilities, options, and alternatives to the field is delivered.  It also will heal some of the emotional volatility that is in effect from so many other astrological aspects.  Flares often have dramatic effects on the body, so if you are feeling the intensity in your body, take care of yourself.  This is a massive solar event that will tend to bring out lunacy and make things even crazier, but ultimately it has a greater design and intention.  Slow down and let things flow.  It's a big upgrade to our energetic fields.

Today's report is abbreviated because I sustained a back injury and am "down for the count" right now.  But it's important to get a message out today.  You don't need me to tell you that the energy is super-intense and causing a lot of upset and conflict.  Last Saturday's Mercury retrograde at the degree of "a cat arguing with a mouse" is a main part of the issue, causing tension and trouble within relationships.  Another contributor is the Sun's square to Chiron, which causes self-sabotage and wounding before the healing aspects of Chiron kick in.  Venus is moving into opposition with Saturn, causing all kinds of issues within professional and personal relationships, particularly power struggles.  Neptune stationed retrograde yesterday, beginning a tour of bringing to light long-standing, erroneous or limiting beliefs.  And finally, Mars, the Planet of War and aggression, is moving into opposition with Uranus, the Planet of Changes.  These are the reasons for the intensity.  To navigate all of this archontic mayhem, reinforce your protective measures - seal yourself with a cylinder of light, invoke the Medicine Wheel of Protection, or whatever your preference.  Practice the skill of being like the wise old owl in the tree - step out of the fray and observe.  Ask the aspect of Gaia-Sophia on duty this month (Bagalamukhi) to calm any storms that are raging for you.  The most important thing is to connect with nature to maintain sanity and to promote healing.  The Earth is ALWAYS the go-to, guys.  We are the parliament of owls and we are on watch.

Saturday, June 7 - Sunday, June 8, 2014

First Quarter Moon Phase: step out; take action

Moon in Libra

Ruling Mahavidya: Bagalamukhi (The Paralyzer, The Storm-Calmer)

Skill: be like the turtle and slow down

Negative Imprint: arguments, conflict, jealousy

Positive Imprint: hopes, dreams, healing

Mercury stations retrograde (or appears to move backward in the sky) today and will remain retrograde until July 1.  Things tend to go a little crazy on the day a planet stations retrograde.  With Mercury, travel, communications, and electronics can cause us difficulties. 

Interpersonal communications are the primary focus for this Mercury retrograde, as the Sabian symbol for the degree of the retrograde is "a cat arguing with a mouse."  In addition to this, the Sun is located at the degree of "two Chinese men speaking Chinese in a Western crowd."  So there is ample energy in play for misunderstandings and problems communicating what we intend.  Be slow and clear when communicating and understand that you may not be understood at first.  It may take a couple of tries to get your thought across.  Keeping this in mind will help alleviate frustration and conflict.  The symbol of "a cat arguing with a mouse" tells us that people will tend to be more aggressive and stubborn.  Power struggles may develop.  Road rage and temper tantrums certainly increases on the day Mercury stations retrograde.  The turtle is pictured above to remind us that we slow down to navigate the energy that comes with a planet moving retrograde.

A sub-theme of Saturday's energy involves looking into the future with a hope or a wish.  The hope or wish may seem very far out of reach.  The universe is limitless and our power to re-create our lives is limitless.  It is a good day to dream a big dream.

Sunday's energy presents something for us to tap into.  Information, messages, and insight become available to change conditions that need to be changed.  We "move off" of something and "move on" to something new.  There is a tremendous push to get rid of or release anything that has been weighing us down.  If you are holding on tightly to something for comfort or safety, loosen your grip and allow some air to enter.  Sunday is one of the best days for healing for the whole year.

Remember to slow down - be the turtle.

First Quarter Phase: take action

Moon in Virgo/Libra

Ruling Mahavidya: Bagalamukhi (The Paralyzer, The Storm-Calmer)

Skill: lighten up

Negative Imprint: heavy, serious, dismissive

Positive Imprint: light, wise, reverent

Today's energy develops to change our mindset.  In some way, what we previously believed expands into something much more.  Our higher mind takes over to help us see and do what needs to be done.

The Sun will square Chiron today, enhancing Chiron's themes of wounding and healing.  One tendency would be to inflict misery on ourselves due to our perceived "failures."  But we can choose the other path and set ourselves free from lingering doubts and feelings of despair.  We can rise out of and above the perceived failure, seeing that we operated on the information and conditions that were available at the time.  If you get caught up in a "Chiron storm" of self-loathing or self-sabotage, ask the Wisdom Goddess who is on duty this month, Bagala, the Storm-Calmer, to settle it down.  Bagala is particularly adept at abruptly bringing an end to things that need to end.

We are in the midst of massive changes in the world and in our lives and changes take energy.  Today's energetic signatures are heavy and somewhat "serious", so we will try to balance this by lightening things up.  If your energy level is lower today, don't push yourself.  Follow what your body is telling you.  Don't deny it.

The key to lightening up today is to revere something.  When we revere, we step outside of ourselves.  It's good to step outside of ourselves today because inner storms are inclined to rage.  What do you hold dear and revere?  Show it today.  Shifting focus to this is a magical act that will work wonders.

(Correction:  In the audio recording of the overview for this month - the Gemini Moon - I misspoke when detailing the colors of the directions with the Medicine Wheel of Protection.  East is yellow, South is red, West is black, North is white.)

First Quarter Moon Phase: take action, break away, step out

Moon in Virgo

Ruling Mahavidya: Bagalamukhi (The Paralyzer, The Storm-Calmer)

Skill: look at the details but also the bigger picture of things

Negative Imprint: settling for less, taking scraps; aggression, arguments

Positive Imprint: independence, creativity, speaking one's mind peacefully

The First Quarter Moon phase begins today, bringing the energy to link things together with the intricacy of a fine lace handkerchief.  We see how things from our past, present, and future are threaded together.  Details are important today, and taking care of small details is encouraged, but seeing the big picture of all the details is more important.  We want to make sure we are looking at the totality of things, not just one aspect.

The Sun is now in the middle of Gemini.  Gemini energy always involves others in various ways; it is the sign of The Twins.  The concept of "the other" is fused with Gemini.  It is concerned with "me vs others" and can have difficulty standing on its own.  You could also say it is about our inner world and what we show the outer world.  Today's energy highlights the Gemini theme of others through strong support of activities, projects, and ideas undertaken with others.

Further, the notion of "self and others" comes into play today in other ways.  In keeping with this month's theme of "aroused strikers around a factory," we are inclined to stand up and lay out our position in support of something important.  To minimize resistance, make sure you are coming from the highest level of intention and do not become aggressive or pushy.  Stand in your center and radiate your power.  Communicate your emotions, but don't get carried away or overdramatic.  Be clear and don't waver.  And if you don't get the support or outcome that you want, don't despair.  Enormous inner strength will be built and clarity about what is not in line with your highest, best, happiest life will be revealed.  Wisdom is gained.

The "intricate lacework" today includes potential for being misunderstood or disadvantaged.  This manifests if you are focusing too much of your energy on others at the expense of taking care of yourself.  What need is this satisfying in you?  Do you need to become more independent, self-contained, or creative?  Remember that inner strength is the aim this month.  Don't lose sight of alternatives or other possibilities.

Finally, a word about the impending Mercury retrograde.  Mercury will station retrograde on Saturday, but today it has moved to the degree in the sky where it will appear to stop and move backwards.  Simply stated, the retrograde energy is foreshadowed today.  Here's the thing: the degree of Mercury's retrograde is "a cat arguing with a mouse."  Take a breath and let's begin to reframe this.  Yes, this means the Mercury retrograde will be intense.  Things will come to somewhat of a standstill and communications will have conflicts.  People will argue about things.  But the fact that the cat is arguing with the mouse, when it could easily overpower and devour it, tells us that some sort of balance will come to situations - possibly for the first time.  Old values, ideas, and systems are reconsidered.  You could say the underdog (or "undermouse") takes a stand and gains power.  What was once overpowering is now open for discourse.  While Mercury is retrograde, the balance of power is transformed in all things.  Let's work the Mercury retrograde from this angle, starting today.

Since the day is like intricate lacework, I could go on and on about the energetic signatures, but this is the big picture.  Dive in to look at details, but come back to see things as a whole.  Keep building your inner strength.

Crescent Moon Phase: grow, expand, challenge

Moon in Leo/Virgo

Ruling Mahavidya: Bagalamukhi (The Paralyzer, The Storm-Calmer)

Skill: look forward to something that is happy

Negative Imprint: blaming others; unsophisticated views forced upon others

Positive Imprint: spontaneity; imaginative views shared with others

On this last day of the Crescent Moon phase, the energy that formed over the past two days as the Moon came together with the Black Moon is fully discharged by 10:20 am ET/ 2:20 pm UT.  It certainly has been interesting to see what transpires when shadow sides are triggered during month-long energy for standing up and coming forward.  The Wisdom Goddess Bagalamukhi, the aspect of Gaia-Sophia who paralyzes ugly behavior and calms emotional storms, will be hard at work with all that transpired.

Today, signs about the future show up.  Signs come in many forms - synchronicities, messages, information, animal sightings, and conversations.  The past may come back in some way to show us the need for a new way or to reinforce something we have already learned.  We also see where we need to make adjustments or improvisations.

It is important to know that our personal levels of energy are somewhat lower today, so we do not want to push things.  We want to work with the nature of the day's energy, not against it.  We are building inner strength all month long, but much of our energy has been focused on handling the outer world over the last two days.  Today is the day to refuel.  Take some time to engage your imagination and your sense of fun.  Anticipate a brighter future.  Keep things simple.

The nature of this month's energy was determined back at the New Moon in Gemini, which was 8 degrees of Gemini - the energy of "aroused strikers around a factory."  The strength to come forward and stand up for ourselves is building inside each of us.  From this we are freeing ourselves from outer circumstances and conditions that limit or enslave us.  We are over-riding past tendencies.  The potential of this energy is limitless.  It is powerful enough to paralyze all things acting against natural world order.  We are adding to the imprint of this energy now.  One day in the future, when the Sun reaches 8 degrees of Gemini again, we as the aroused strikers will close out "the matrix."  The inner strength that is built now ripples out into the fabric of time.  Be aware of what is happening.  The Second Renaissance is underway.
