Balsamic Moon Phase: release, dream

Moon in Gemini

Goddess of Wisdom:  Bagalamukhi (Goddess Who Solves)

God of Will: Ian (God of The East)

Skill: engage the patience of a wise owl in a tree

True Alignments: ejecting or opting out of certain things, reliability, deep sense of fulfillment, creation and creativity, flexibility, grace, self-control, seeing the blessings already present, new ideas/projects/relationships, creating structure, transformation

Catalysts for Change:  rejection, hyper manipulation and control, limiting ourselves, self-sabotage, disastrous, diving in without thinking of consequences, competitiveness, missing a chance, naïve

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "winter frost in the woods"

Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Year: "the music of the spheres"

The "winter frost in the woods" is beginning to melt rapidly, courtesy of the Sun and Uranus still in close square today, but also due to the fires of Mars moving into opposition with Pluto.

How is all of this treating you?

Depending on how much "frost" has built up, the rapid thaw could turn into a flash flood of emotions as we advance to the New Moon in Cancer on Wednesday.  The next lunar month transports us to an entirely different climate altogether, as the Sabian symbol for the New Moon is "a woman and two men castaways on an island in the South Seas."  More on this in the monthly New Moon audio recording which is on its way.

Mars and Pluto engage our will.  Impetus, initiative, and a strong desire to act comes with this.  Coupled with the Sun and Uranus still discharging the surprising, catalytic, electrical, changeable, sudden energy, there is very high potential for explosive interactions, outbursts, road rage, accidents, and the like.  You know the drill.

But, a much better way to channel ALL of the energetics that are in play (and there are others, too lengthy for this report) is through the energetic frequency of Venus today: "a mermaid emerges from the ocean ready for rebirth in human form."  Focus the energy on the rebirth or emergence of a useful reality.

I would offer that whatever we do between now and the New Moon on Wednesday is what transports us to the place on the mental and emotional map we will inhabit over the next lunar month.

Sophia acousome.

Wisdom, let us attend.

Saturday, July 11 - Sunday, July 12, 2015

Saturday: Third Quarter Moon Phase (revise, realign)

Sunday: Balsamic Moon Phase (release, dream)

Moon in Taurus/Gemini (Saturday 8:16 pm ET)

Goddess of Wisdom: Bagalamukhi (Goddess Who Solves)

God of Will: Ian (God of The East)

Skill: be receptive to realignment

True Alignments:  leaps ahead, flashes of inspiration, the power of voices, sharing projects/tasks/goals, stepping forward to carry the torch when your turn comes, pleasure, honesty, group efforts, background information, quiet time, strong and determined will, romantic expressions

Catalysts for Change: repression, feeling defeated or not having necessary abilities, insincerity, fear of change, support issues, rejection, fears about safety/security/vulnerability, too much noise, isolating, retreat, lost in fantasy, demanding, making something overly-complex, commitment issues, disguise, pretending to be something one isn't

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month:  "winter frost in woods"

Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Year: "the music of the spheres"

There is quite a marked difference between Saturday and Sunday's energies, but everything is building toward the exact square of the Sun and Uranus Sunday night at 11:00 pm ET/Monday at 3:00 am UT.

First, let's cover Saturday.  At the core, Saturday's energy is ethereal, receptive, dreamy, romantic, and imaginative.  Also, messages and insights are trying to reach us.  In most things, suspending expectations will go a long way on Saturday.  It's exceptionally creative energy, so something may be trying to come to life or be born for each of us.

But, a stronger energetic is over-ruling everything this weekend and this is the Sun square (making a 90 degree angle) with Uranus.  Things will turn a different way. Whatever way it turns, it is meant to be, you can be assured.

At the time of the square, the Sun will be located at 20 Cancer 25 and the Sabian symbol of "a prima donna singing."  This energy can bring extremes - extreme highs and extreme lows, which can take its toll.  It can make sleep elusive and produce high anxiety.  But what is really happening is that we are asked to let go of what inhibits or restricts our hearts.  Everything is best done from the heart, but when skilled singers sing from the heart, it is like the music of the spheres.  It awes and amazes.  It touches us at the deepest levels of our souls and we expand.

Uranus will be at 20 Aries 25 and the Sabian symbol of "a boxer entering the ring" which, of course, most Oracle Report readers know is the Eris Point (the degree where the planet Eris was located at discovery and the dissolving control system's favored frequency to manipulate).  The exact degree of the Eris Point is 20 Aries 36, so this square is only 11 arc minutes from the exact point.  You can't get much closer than that.

This is key point in time and a harbinger of what we can expect between July 15 and the end of December.  The New Moon in Cancer (a "cardinal" or "turning point" month) begins July 15, Venus will retrograde ten days later, and one day after Venus, Uranus will retrograde.  This weekend's events will re-connect directly with August 9-10, when Uranus will come back to where it is this weekend.  In other words, it will reactivate whatever is imprinted into the field now.  The energetic will activate once again after Uranus moves direct and comes back to this point on April 9, 2016.

So you see why this is a key point in time.

Water and fire are engaged with this dynamic, and Uranus brings accident-proneness, so take extra care and precaution this weekend.  Uranus is swift as lightning and packs a powerful boxer's punch.  Take it on the chin if he strikes.  He wants us to see something different - something new - and he will do what it takes to turn our heads that way. 

The Sun empowers.  Uranus realigns.  The Eris energy rebirths.  Sounds like renaissance to me.

Third Quarter Moon Phase: revise, realign

Moon in Taurus

Goddess of Wisdom: Bagalamukhi (Goddess Who Solves)

God of Wisdom: Ian (God of The East)

Skill: integrate fun and play to alleviate heaviness

True Alignments: resolving confusion, simple expressions of the heart, sanctity, making a commitment, unity, enthusiasm, abundance of energy for what is needed to restore inner resources, humor, demonstrations of loyalty, getting back on track, gaining perspective, multiple possibilities, like-minded people joining together

Catalysts for Change:  clouding or confusing the issue to persuade or manipulate, taking on too much work or responsibility, asking for something beyond someone's level of skill or experience, believing one is too old for fun or forgetting how to have fun, rigid rules and rule following, forcing, confused by too much information, bickering, conforming

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "winter frost in the woods"

Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Year: "the music of the spheres"

We are wise today to find a balance between work, rest, creativity, and play to replenish our inner resources.  This weekend is a power-punch of energetics, with the Sun squaring Uranus (with Uranus already at the Eris Point, as I've mentioned) and Mars beginning opposition with Pluto.  A lot will develop under these catalyzing energetics, so today we want to keep things in good perspective, integrate a lot of humor, and commit our hearts to what we truly value.

I am discussing values and value systems a lot in advance of Venus' retrograde on July 25.  It's important that we become clear about what is most important and meaningful to us.  Today's energetics activate our hearts and our heart's desires, so pay attention to your attention!  If you feel confused or overloaded (with information, options, decisions, responsibilities, etc.), stop and decide if there is something you need to put down.  Are you carrying something that no longer needs to be carried?  The universe helps us see and do this today.

If your mind chatter is on overdrive today, this is part of the energetic to help us take things to the next level.  But this also can get out of hand quickly, scattering us.  If you start to experience this, it is a direct sign that you need a rest.  Take a short break (or long one if possible) and return to your center.  Then come back with a refreshed perspective.

Mercury, the planet that rules communication (including mind chatter), moves to the degree of "a cat arguing with a mouse."   This can cause standoffs or standstills, as well as, obviously, arguments.  What is the core issue?  What needs to be brought back into balance?  Are you engaged in an internal argument or battle?  Again, realigning with what we value will bring us out of the conundrum.

All this month, the force of love has been coursing through our "inner woodlands" despite the "winter frost."  Hearts and minds seek expression today.  What do yours want to say and do?

(Note:  The latest episode of "Parliament of Wise Owls" was recorded last night and will be posted tomorrow, so be sure to check back for that and the weekend report.)

Third Quarter Moon Phase: revise, realign

Moon in Aries/Taurus (3:50 pm ET/7:50 pm UT)

Goddess of Wisdom: Bagalamukhi (Goddess Who Solves)

God of Wisdom: Ian (God of The East)

Skill: nourish something

True Alignments:  paying attention to surroundings, protecting, being real, provisions or arrangements made, the base or basics reinforced, immersion, heightened sensitivity and awareness to environment, accepting personal responsibility, concern for the fellowship of humanity

Catalysts for Change:  cover ups, not paying enough attention, engaging in a never-ending search and missing out on the present moment, loss, trying to solve problems with things that are proven not to solve, fears about safety and security, repeating the same mistakes, disconnection, too serious

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "winter frost in the woods"

Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Month: "the music of the spheres"

Today the Sun moves to the degree of the Sabian symbol "a hen scratching for her chicks."  The themes of nurturance and nourishment are involved with this energy.  The levels of care and dedication that are needed in order for things to grow are visible.

At the other end of the spectrum, Jupiter has moved to degree of the Sabian symbol of "totally concentrated upon inner spiritual attainment, a man is sitting in a state of complete neglect of his body."  This energy wants us to restore balance to situations and conditions.  Deep insight and revelation accompanies this energetic signature, but it's best to help the body process or integrate the information through physical activity.

All of this is happening as our instinctual bodies are activated today.  The Earth is located at the degree of the Sabian symbol of "the Union Jack flies from a new British warship."  Energetics that prompt fears about all types of safety and security are being pushed.  Old imprints of power, control, and empire are trying to regain footing.  This won't work because the dream we are dreaming no longer has these underpinnings.

What does work is following our deep roots with Sophia, the divine being embodied as the Earth, to reconnect at all levels of the body, mind, and soul and restore balance.  Step aside from the fear and step outside to find solace in the complexity of Nature.

(Audio version of the Oracle Report will return tomorrow.)

Third Quarter Moon Phase: revise, realign

Moon in Aries

Goddess of Wisdom: Bagalamukhi (Goddess Who Solves)

God of Will:  Ian (God of The East)

Skill: open up to shifting

True Alignments: allegiance, revealing true self, allure, the interests of disclosure, seeing more of the truth (especially of oneself), nurturance of what we love and value, steadiness, shedding restraints and restrictions, new ideas

Catalysts for Change:  impulsivity, careless with words, throwing tantrums, acting out, projecting shadow sides, rushing forward, doubting self-worth, glossing over key pieces, shame, restraining and restricting

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "winter frost in the woods"

Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Year: "the music of the spheres"

The Third Quarter Moon phase begins today, but the real news is that this is technically the last few days of two month's worth of challenging energy.  We've persevered through obstacles (fears, perceived failures, rejections, old beliefs) to maintain sight of our highest ideals and our hopes, wishes, and dreams.  Our mission over the past two lunar months has been to not give up on the true values of life.  The universe asked if we value something enough to dedicate ourselves to the challenge.

Beginning today and continuing over the next few days (the Third Quarter Moon phase), energy for turning points enters the field.  Things straighten up, rectify, align, join together, magnetize, and reposition.  The strongest effects of this occur today as the Moon moves into conjunction with Uranus at the Eris Point with exact conjunction around 11:00 pm ET/3:00 am UT.

Mercury will enter Cancer around 3:00 pm ET/7:00 pm UT, joining the Sun and Mars in Cancer.  Cancer energy increases our sensitivity to all things, but especially our emotional sensitivity.  The main story with Mercury entering Cancer is the amplification of "cardinal" or turning point energies because Mercury is joining forces with the Sun, Mars, Uranus, Pluto, and today the Moon in cardinal signs to realign people, places, and things in major ways.

Envision a cross with the cardinal directions of East, South, West, and North.  Planets are peppered at three of the points, moving things toward change and transformation.

But what about the fourth direction?  What's missing? 

The fourth direction is filled when the Black Moon takes position on August 25, 2015, completing the cross and delivering renaissance as it transits Libra through May of 2016.

The events of today foreshadow that time period, so wise owls are paying close attention.  Clues about what is missing in our lives also comes along with this today.

Please join me in sending a wave of love to all the wise owls in the UK for ongoing, herculean skills of holding the line.  We salute you!

Disseminating Moon Phase: share, communicate

Moon in Pisces/Aries (12:39 pm ET/4:39 pm UT)

Goddess of Wisdom:  Bagalamukhi  (Goddess Who Solves)

God of Wisdom: Ian (God of The East)

Skill:  take a leap of faith

True Alignments:  things dawning on us, enormous beauty taking form, pronouncing, attraction, drawn to depths, answers, joy for life, returning vitality, enhanced connection with physical body, the Mysteries, expressions of the heart, care

Catalysts for Change:  stealing gifts, jealousy, disconnection with the physical body, unimaginative, putting pressure on oneself, sacrifice for nothing, feeling restricted, frustration, things that are incomprehensible because they do not make sense (cognitive dissonance), perfectionism, lack of discipline

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "winter frost in the woods"

Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Year: "the music of the spheres"

A bit of a puzzle emerges today, as the Sun moves to the degree of the Sabian symbol "a man studying a mandala in front of him with the help of a very ancient book."

I love this symbol because I love mandalas and have seen the power of them in action.  When new things enter the field and start to form, the shape of things changes.  The labyrinth of reality rearranges. 

We naturally step back and take a look, but always, after consulting our inner wisdom, we realize that the only option is to enter the labyrinth.  Immersion in the experience is how we gain the satisfaction or wholeness or sense of completion -- whatever gift the puzzle offers.

So today, it may be quite necessary to take a leap of faith with something, especially with trying to understand something.  We should not forget that the "help of a very ancient book" implies that direct assistance and guidance for a great expansion in consciousness is present.

Much of today's energy involves integrating what is already known or available into a new form.  Many, many new forms are emerging, though they may be rough around the edges right now.  New ways of doing things and new ways of re-doing things are coming forth as the wave of the Second Renaissance continues to build and burst through.

The Mahavidya Bagalamukhi excels at solving things.  Her energy can take us for panoramic views of situations so that we can study and understand them better.  We can take a leap of faith with her and engage the mandala of life in a deeper way.  What will happen to the mandala of reality when we do?

Disseminating Moon Phase: share, communicate

Moon in Pisces

Goddess of Wisdom: Bagalamukhi (Goddess Who Solves)

God of Will: Ian (God of The East)

Skill: be reassured

True Alignments:  cohesion, perseverance, release, infusions or transfusions of the heart, fascination, shows of affection and care, assisting someone lift themselves up, taking care of responsibilities, clarity about the purpose of things, gazing at beauty

Catalysts for Change: self-indulgence/selfishness at the expense of others and their feelings, breaking promises, easily distracted, illusions, unable to grasp the scope of consequences, loss of respect and command, making a mess of things, pretending to care, arrogance

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "winter frost in the woods"

Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Year: "the music of the spheres"

"After a heavy storm, a rainbow."  The planets combine today to deliver signs and messages that reassure us of better times.  Light returns to infuse our lives with rich color and blessings, as Venus moves to this degree in the sky.

The question today is whether we are mentally still in the heavy storm or out into the light of the rainbow or vacillating between.

Given that the Moon is in Pisces opposing the Black Moon and the Sun is making exact opposition with Pluto today, stormy weather may roll our way at times.  The combination of these aspects increases potential for projection our own and others' shadow sides today.  The "Catalysts for Change" list gives detail.

Though today's energetics contain elements that can cause people to act from their most fearful and insecure selves - in the ugliest of ways - we understand that what is happening is transformation out of darkness into light.  When people behave unkindly, hurtfully, or selfishly, they are operating from fear and a sense of powerlessness.  Attempts to blame others always accompanies this, but it is merely projection  -- a poor coping skill that devolves into power and control issues.  (When Pluto is involved, power issues often come in to play. With Pluto in Capricorn, we add control to the mix.)

The highest objective of the energy is to clear illusions and fears.  As this happens, a rainbow of options opens.  New experiences beckon.  All of this is building toward the next New Moon, the New Moon in Cancer on July 15.  A torrent of opportunities will flood the field of consciousness.  Today, part of the way is being paved.

No matter what the skies us bring today, let's remember to be on the lookout for the rainbow.  Let's watch as new perspectives, opportunities, and destinies arise.  Let's stand reassured.  Here comes the Sun.

(Note:  The Sun will make exact opposition with Pluto at 11:20 am ET/3:20 pm UT.  The Moon will make exact opposition with the Black Moon overnight at 3:30 am ET/7:30 am UT.)

Full Moon Phase: clarity, realization

Moon in Capricorn

Goddess of Wisdom; Bagalamukhi (Goddess Who Solves)

God of Will:  Ian (God of The East)

Skill: be true

True Alignments: seeing the truth after being in the dark for a long time, simplicity, kindness, comprehending something, relief, lessons, promises, just rewards, learning

Catalysts for Change: immaturity, desperation, deep need for attention, entering into risky situations, inability to be satisfied, spontaneous group violence, radicalism, anti-human, deception, far-fetched

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "winter frost in the woods"

Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Year: "the music of the spheres"

The Full Moon continues to provide heightened illumination, and today the spotlight is on redressing, correcting, revising, and reforming the balance of things and the value of things.  What is truly worthy and what is truly unworthy shows clearly.

The Moon will make an exact square (90 degree angle) with Uranus around 4:00 pm ET/8:00 pm ET.  Tumult is indicated within several of the energetics, very likely with high emotionality.  This builds through the day.  Uranus is swift and unpredictable.  Anxiety and fears rise.  Accidents occur, but truly nothing happens by accident with Uranus.  

There is, eventually, a silver lining with anything that happens under Uranus' influence.  My teacher was wise when she taught me that Uranus saves us by our rejections.  I could not see or feel it that way then.  But it is very clear now.  Uranus will put things right, and this is a great blessing.

The blessing, however, is like riding greased lightning.  The best advice is to hold on and let the energy take you where you need to be.  If we endeavor to be the best (fill in your name) we can be, we find the ride easier, even enjoyable perhaps if we are able to let go of the need for control.

It's the job of wise owls to maintain a strong sense of grounding this month.  We walk through the woods of winter frost that some consider bleak.  We know that reinforcement is taking place under the surface.  The force of LIFE is active and vibrant and building strength.  The scene isn't bleak.  Look beyond to what is happening under the veneer. 

We are like the woods, with deep roots into the Earth, and open branches stretching into the Heavens.  The month we are preserving and protecting "Heaven on Earth" -- what we love and value.  We remember and we hold true, no matter the conditions.

Gibbous Moon Phase: trust, magic

Full Moon Phase: (10:20 pm ET/2:20 am UT Thursday): realization, clarity

Moon in Capricorn

Goddess of Wisdom: Bagalamukhi (Goddess Who Solves)

God of Will: Ian (God of The East)

Skill: see beyond and rise over

True Alignments: dedication to hopes/wishes/dreams/goals, humor, self-care, information from Akashic records, comfort, sense of direction, adapting to sudden changes or surprising information, ability to change as conditions dictate (going with the flow), mastering instincts and programmed responses

Catalysts for Change: disregarding signs and messages, needing to be noticed in order to feel good about oneself, creating a dramatic scene, self-centered, foolishness and being played the fool (repeats multiple times within the symbols today), not being real, trying to  cover something up or hide something, reckless

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "winter frost in woods"

Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Year: "the music of the spheres"

A great deal of sensory overload, cognitive dissonance, and fear mongering is being pushed into human consciousness in an attempt to re-imprint an old energetic.

Today, the Black Moon will move to 24 Virgo 00 (25 Virgo) and the Sabian symbol of "a flag at half mast in front of a public building." Again we have energetics around "flags."  This energy will be in effect for the next nine days, so it will be present throughout the Independence Day holiday here in the US.  So people are being stirred up - "triggered" in trauma terminology.  The crumbling control system is trying to trigger a trauma response whether they carry out a traumatic event or not.  The fear of the potential for something is almost as powerful as the emotional response from an actual event.  Our brains are more easily manipulated when fear is involved.

But, several things are also in effect to not counter all of this, but to lift us out of it to a clearer view - a wiser view.  Primary among these is Venus, still in conjunction with the lofty expansion of masterful Jupiter, moves to the degree of the Solstice CME and reactivating the Sabian symbol of  "a bareback rider in a circus displays her dangerous skill."  This was the CME of the M2.6 flare on Saturday, June 20 at 10:34 pm ET/ Sunday, June 21 at 2:34 am UT -- just four hours after Uranus moved to the Eris Point, where it sits now and where it will turn retrograde, flooding the field with revelations of truth, rebellion against power and control dynamics, and rebirth of the true values of life.  You may remember significant things happening in your life at that time.  It was quite a Summer Solstice!

Many people have reported feeling dissociated or spacey during this Gibbous Moon phase.  Gibbous is rather airy and fluid energy by nature.  It has taken over a week for us to fully take on board the solar activations - the light and wisdom - that was sent our way with the Earth directed CMEs last week.  The Solstice CME was one of the ones that morphed with the others to have such a dramatic impact on our psyches.  And we are smarter from it.

The Venus-Jupiter conjunction assists by helping us elevate and assimilate our understanding of the way things are in our lives and in the world right now.  And remember, Neptune is still helping us navigate as the energy of "an aviator in the clouds" continues to fly.

These are the kinds of things that causes renaissance -- true change.

Wise owls are well aware of the types of tricks and hijinks that the old, dying system is fond of employing.  We see beyond the illusions, somersaulting above them like a bareback rider.  We understand that we are in direct connection and direct collaboration with a higher force of love, freedom, and beauty that is restoring the world to balance and sanity.

Gibbous Moon Phase: trust, magic

Moon in Sagittarius

Goddess of Wisdom: Bagalamukhi (Goddess Who Solves)

God of Will: Ian (God of The East)

Skill: open to possibilities; watch and listen

True Alignments: goodwill toward all, collaboration and team efforts, choosing things that nurture the mind/body/soul over things that degrade them, ability to mend a fence or get along with or cooperate with someone with whom we usually have difficulty, shared thoughts (literally having the same thought as another - the source field is ripe), things beginning to take shape, massive potential

Catalysts for Change: chasing impossible standards and missing out on life in the process, shutting oneself away, needing to share but having no one to tell (journal or write it down as an alternative), feeling that things are unsteady (they aren't), adjustment difficulties, alienation, seeing another point of view, gruff or angry approach, denial

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "winter frost in the woods"

Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Year: "the music of the spheres"

The music of the spheres erupts with the herald of divine messages today!

The symphony has already started, kicking off with the Moon opposing Mercury, the planet known as The Messenger this morning.  Message begins: open your mind to new opportunities and options.  Break from restrictions.  The future is safe and secure, even it feels foreign now.

The message continues at High Noon ET/4:00 pm UT with the Moon beginning the "triangulation" of direction, guidance, and information as it completes the third angle of a Grand Trine between Venus and Jupiter on one side and Uranus on the other.  Venus and Jupiter will make exact conjunction overnight and into the early hours - 3:33 am ET/7:33 am UT.  Message ends.

That's a lot of astrology.  What it means is messages, information, guidance, and direction are filling the air.  The primary energy in effect today is the Sabian symbol "a carrier pigeon fulfilling its mission."  What is the music of the spheres of the Moon, Venus, Jupiter, and Uranus delivering to you today?

Whatever it is, it is paving the way to refine our recognition of who, what, and where we value.  Today's Venus-Jupiter conjunction foreshadows the upcoming Venus retrograde of July 25 to September 6, 2015.  Venus refines and restores the true values of life when it is retrograde.  It's a good thing.

With great hope for the future, today wise owls are watching and listening to what the universe is telling us.  It's big.

Gibbous Moon Phase:  trust, magic

Moon in Sagittarius

Goddess of Wisdom: Bagalamukhi (The Goddess Who Solves)

God of Wisdom: Ian (God of The East)

Skill: grasping truth when it glimmers

True Alignments: evolving mindset, reaching out, shifts in perception, the ability to laugh at oneself, creating harmony, tuning in to a bigger picture, noticing and acknowledging the skills/talents/uniqueness of others, inspiring greater things, connections

Catalysts for Change:  illusions, reactions from instinctual nature, arguments that lead to stalemate, spreading disharmony/fear, distracted from mission, denial, in over one's head, meaninglessness

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "winter frost in the woods"

Sabian Symbol for Solar-Lunar Year: "the music of the spheres"

A beautiful and remarkable thing is beginning in the starry skies and building until Wednesday night.  The planets Venus and Jupiter are moving into the same "place," shining a beacon as they converge at the degree of the Sabian symbol "a carrier pigeon fulfilling its mission."

Clarity about direction, course, senses, intuition, beliefs, information, and assessments is delivered.  The energy that is building provides guidance and information -- special messages that guide.

The energy is "exalted" somewhat since Jupiter is involved.  Jupiter teaches us things that stretch our minds, so whatever is happening now is designed to bring things to a much higher and expanded level. 

Since Venus is the other planet involved, energy is added to what we value and love, taking those things to new levels as well.

This lofty event has a caveat.  The conjunction of Venus and Jupiter makes an astrological aspect with Uranus.  Uranus' goal is always to change, adjust, or align us with what is in our highest and best interests.

We are just beginning to grasp the expanded perception, awareness, and insight that is on tap until the Full Moon and the Venus -Jupiter conjunction overnight Tuesday (exact conjunction of Venus and Jupiter is Wednesday, July 1 at 3:33 am ET/7:33 am UT).  Until then, the magic of the Gibbous Moon phase continues to flow.

Saturday, June 27 - Sunday, June 28, 2015

First Quarter Moon Phase (Saturday): step out, take action  Gibbous Moon Phase (Sunday): trust

Moon in Scorpio/Sagittarius (Sunday 11:22 pm ET/Monday 3:22 pm UT)

Goddess of Wisdom: Bagalamukhi (Goddess Who Solves)

God of Will: Ian (God of The East)

Skill: uncomplicated things

True Alignments: creating connections and foundations, mysteriousness, tempering harshness with gentleness, free expression of feelings, imagination, thin veils between the worlds, truth, vivid dreams revealing guidance, facing forward, the Goddess

Catalysts for Change: pretending to be something one is not/overblown ego, unable to see or appreciate the blessings one has received, astray, half truths, attempting to persuade through manipulation, threats, continually worrying, fear of the unknown

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "winter frost in the woods"

Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Year: "the music of the spheres"

The rational mind rebels this weekend and effectively goes on leave.  The increased solar energetics this past week have taken the rational mind to a new limit.  This weekend, the magical mind rises up in balance.  Like ribbons, the feminine energetics of creation and connection fold around the edges and bring about balance.

Rest, relaxation, and fun are the natural tendencies with this weekend's energetics.  But if this is in short supply for you, the best way to compensate is to focus on anything natural that you can find.  There are trees even in concrete jungles.  Birds are always around.  Registering these things relaxes stressed minds.

Several of the Sabian symbols this weekend feature dancing.  Dancing is another things that relaxes stressed minds.  Before the male wise owls freak out, this is accomplished by little happy dances.  Going out "two stepping" is not required.

Any situations that have developed where there is stepping out on people, however, will result in definitive consequences when Venus stations retrograde on July 25.  Venus' retrograde between July 25 and September 6, 2015.

The skill this weekend is to uncomplicated things.  So, since I have been trying to write this report for over two hours, I will take the message, too, and sign off for this week.  As always, find beauty.

Friday, July 26, 2015

First Quarter Moon Phase:  step out, take action

Moon in Libra/Scorpio (2:00 pm ET/6:00 pm UT)

Goddess of Wisdom: Bagalamukhi (Goddess Who Solves)

God of Wisdom: Ian (God of The East)

Skill: look for "guideposts" or "signs" for direction

True Alignments:  preparing and sharing, validation, loosening of rigid structures and limitations, hope for the future, "going through the eye of the needle," transported from one frame of mind to another, heighted awareness and ability to see a bigger picture, loyalty, fidelity

Catalysts for Change: disconnected from the reality of something, unfocused, afraid to venture alone, afraid to act, complacent, always seeking something or someone else, out of touch with the feelings of others, arrogance, power or attention going to one's head, fear of the unknown, changing loyalties, infidelity

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "winter frost in the woods"

Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Month: "the music of the spheres"

Today's energy is arranged to offer us an opening or opportunity while also providing what is needed for the adventure.

This manifests through situations, circumstances, and things that are changing.  When things change, many feelings emerge.  Feelings of grief or loss about the past, fears about security and survival, and deep disappointment can arise.  We wonder what will become of us.

The Sun is located at the degree of the Sabian symbol "gamebirds feathering their nests."  Under this energetic, we make preparations and make things stronger and more comfortable..  We make and take sanctuary.  We prepare for new life.

The Earth is located at "ten logs lie under an archway leading to darker woods."  Nests, woods, and gamebirds, oh my!  But we are well-supplied.  Ten logs can make a lot of torches to light through dark woods.  The key element of the symbol is the archway.  Archways are gateways.  They lead to other places -- other states of mind, other experiences, other adventures.  Usually they lead to "higher" places.  We focus on the archway, not the darkness.

These themes happen to be the bulk of the discussion last night when I joined Phoenix on his radio show.  Many thanks to the PRR audience and to Phoenix for inviting me.  You can listen to the archive here:

First Quarter: step out, take action

Moon in Libra

Goddess of Wisdom: Bagalamukhi (Goddess Who Paralyzes Enemies)

God of Will: Ian (God of The East)

Skill: open to receiving more light in heart and mind/lighten up

True Alignments: telepathy, taking changes and producing something magnificent, relaxation, like-mindedness, sharing, winning respect and self-respect, rejuvenation, collaboration, creativity, attraction to the beauty of nature, unusual opportunities, maintaining structural cohesion in a changing environment

Catalysts for Change: announcements of new standards or ways, aggression, detaching, self-indulgence, not looking at consequences of one's actions, sacrificing someone else for oneself, overworking, display of military strength with the intention of intimidation, narcissism, subtle manipulation of the truth and symbols, changing loyalties

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "winter frost in the woods"

Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Year: "the music of the spheres"

Sunspot 2371 has erupted again.  Early this morning (4:16 am ET/8:16 am UT) an M7.9-class solar flare with Earth-directed coronal mass ejection was released.  The Moon was located at 14 Libra, disseminating the energy of "in the heat of the noon, a man takes a siesta."  This symbol signifies a gaining or gathering of strength to complete something.

But the story of what the Sun (Sabaoth in the Gnostic), the Earth (Sophia in the Gnostic), and the magnetic fields and polarities of the Earth (Thelete in recovered wisdom) are doing is a much bigger story.  It is the story of how humanity, in collaboration with divine forces, frees itself from the bondage over its mind.  More to come on this larger story.

For now, the influx of solar energies is fuel for our brains, expanding our understandings and perceptions.  Intense light brings intense clarity.  Clarity brings wisdom.  Wisdom brings freedom.

The symbol of the man taking a noon siesta tells us to "chill out," adding to the lunar month's theme of "winter frost in the woods."  It is a time for inner stillness and cold determination to persevere.  So as all sorts of intense things happen as the CME fully loads in, we prepare to receive an "upgrade" in brain and processing power.  The best way to handle this is to go with the flow and temper reactions.

With the Moon making opposition with Uranus at 6:20 pm ET/10:20 pm UT this evening, the skills of a wise old owl may be need.  One of those skills is knowing that anything that happens under a Uranus transit is meant to put us on our proper course in life -- the highest and best expression and experience of our souls.  Things happen abruptly (accidents, surprises, events) under dynamic of the Moon and Uranus, naturally triggering reactions.  Take special care when driving today.  Keep a slower or steadier pace in all things.  Take breaks - it will help if you need to be hyper-productive right now.  Meditate.  Turn your face to the Sun if it is shining where you are today.  And if it's not, just look up; it's there beyond the clouds, radiating love.

And since I now seem to be (bizarrely) prone to quote lyrics from '80s music, here's a fitting one from Van Halen:

It's your tomorrow
Right now,
C'mon, it's everything
Right now,
Catch a magic moment
Do it right here and now
It means everything.

First Quarter Moon Phase: step out, take action

Moon in Libra

Goddess of Wisdom: Bagalamukhi (Goddess Who Restores Stability)

God of Will: Ian (God of the East)

Skill: seeing and holding the true values of life

True Alignments:  breaks in the chain, alchemy (magical changes from one state to another) highest ideals beginning to take shape or see the light, advancement, generating energy, balance, appreciation, embarking, clear vision, lighthearted, innocence and sincerity

Catalysts for Change:  suppressed creativity, power plays, manipulating words and speech to persuade or cover up, wasting, clouding or redirecting focus from the issue, imbalance, lack of appreciation, perfectionism, insecurities

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "winter frost in the woods"

Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Year: "the music of the spheres"

 A layer in the heaviness of the energy lifts today with the start of the First Quarter Moon phase.  The double-Crescent or "doubly challenging" energetic signatures have ended.  The remainder of the lunar month still carriers the underlying current of Crescent (challenging) energy, but not to the level it was over the past four days.

The planet Chiron stationed retrograde just before 8:30 am ET/12:30 pm today.  Chiron holds the archetypal energy of wounding, healing, and teaching.  It retrogrades today at 22 Pisces and the Sabian symbol that has been in effect since May 21, 2015, "a prophet bringing down the new law from Mt Sinai."  Bringing down the new law is the theme and mission of Chiron's energy until it stations direct at the end of November.  Sands are cleared, spells are broken, illusions are dissolved, and lies are revealed.  It is all leads to where everything else is leading -- rebirth, renaissance -- as Chiron will station direct at the degree of the Sabian symbol of "an Easter promenade."

Obviously, with these energetics, the period of Chiron's retrograde will also affect geopolitical issues of religion and territory.

Chiron is the teacher you hope you get in high school.  Not only does he deliver the greatest teachings, he does so in a way that we can really understand.  He inspires.  One of the many things with which Chiron excels is teaching those who have been wounded by their experiences how to feel better.  He always wants to make us better.  The teachings of Chiron heal the mind, body, and soul, and they ripple through space and time.

Today's energetics do carry old elements of conflict, unrest, uprising, manipulation, mind control, and confusion.  While this is happening, we hold to this month's mission of preserving and protecting the values of life.  Respect, freedom, love, honor, integrity, duty, appreciation, equality, nature, beauty... What else would be on your list of what's worth preserving and protecting.  This is the mindset of a wise owl today.

Crescent Moon Phase: challenge, perseverance

Moon in Virgo

Goddess of Wisdom: Bagalamukhi (Goddess Who Calms Storms)

God of Will: Ian (God of The East)

Skill:  pioneer on

True Alignments: belief, unity and unifying and especially unified voices, enlivening, noticing the background, equilibrium, socializing, open to messages, bravery

Catalysts for Change:  denial of growth, minimizing, afraid to speak or make a move when urged, fears causing barriers, taking advantage of others, struggling

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "winter frost in the woods"

Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Year: "the music of the spheres"

The Sun released an M6.5-class solar flare with coronal mass ejection yesterday at 2:23 pm ET/6:23 pm UT.  It is Earth-directed.  The Moon was located at 13 Virgo, activating the energy of "a powerful statesman overcomes a state of political hysteria."  The Moon was also making a trine to Pluto at that time, adding massive energy of deep transformation.

The symbol of "a powerful statesman overcomes a state of political hysteria" is the energy to turn things around and bring them into equilibrium.  It rectifies and stabilizes.  The coronal mass ejection is one more step of cosmic intervention to restore and realign with the value of life itself and the rich experiences it brings.

Rich experiences and a certain amount of "inner revival" are present with the Earth located at the degree of "the human soul, in its eagerness for new experience, seeks embodiment."  This energy unbinds us from what we've been previously bound.  A new arena of inner experience opens that eventually leads to some sort of expansion/manifestation in the outer world.

In a resonant way, Mercury will once again begin to disseminate the energy of "newly opened lands offer the pioneer new opportunities for experience."  What do you think?

New experiences result from changes, and thus imply that we move beyond the fear of the unknown.  Pioneers understand this very well.  They understand that within the unknown, the potential for opportunity could be beyond our wildest imagination.  In this way, pioneers are adventurers.

Today is the last day of the Crescent Moon phase, the time of the lunar cycle that challenges us in myriad ways.  It's been an intense four days.  The Moon and the Black Moon will meet in the sky at 11:35 am ET/3:35 pm UT today.  Thoughts and feelings about perceived personal failings may try to creep in.  This just helps us see something important about ourselves.  The Moon will move out of Virgo and out the Crescent phase overnight.  Relief comes as the Sun rises tomorrow.

Until then, we adventure on...

Crescent Moon Phase: challenges, perseverance

Moon in Virgo

Goddess of Wisdom: Bagalamukhi (Goddess of the Paralyzes Negative Thoughts and Speech)

God of Will: Ian (God of The East)

Skill: find solid footing within nature

True Alignments:  taking the best of what's around and building on it, unity, thoughtful, thinking before acting or speaking, clearing confusion or misunderstanding, bringing air to situations, spreading warmth, plans for the future, courage, defiance

Catalysts for Change:  headed for trouble, inexperience, losing touch/feeling untouchable, giving out/up, immersed in victimization or feelings of failure, putting up a wall, refusing to consider that things may be getting better, post-traumatic stress/fear of imminent trauma, shaking/breaking.quaking

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "winter frost in the woods"

Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Year: "the music of the spheres"

A fast and intense solar storm is underway with a "full halo" (Earth-facing) coronal mass ejection from an M2.6-class flare.  The coronal mass was ejected Saturday, June 20 at 10:34 pm  ET/ Sunday, June 21 at 2:34 am UT.  The full intensity of the CME arrives today.  Communications may be somewhat disrupted, as the storm may affect satellites and radio transmissions.

The CME occurred when the Moon was located at 22 Leo 45 and the Sabian symbol of 23 Leo: "a bareback rider in a circus displays her dangerous skill."  The symbol images mastery or skill at maneuvering energies and instincts. 

Our instincts, which are intimately tied to our shadow sides, are already on heightened alert today with the Moon moving through Virgo, along with the Black Moon.  The exact meet-up of the Moon and the Black Moon is tomorrow, Tuesday, June 23 around 11:30 am ET/3:30 pm UT. 

When the Moon enters the sign that the Black Moon is in, shadow sides are projected.  Our core fears are triggered.  Right now, those most affected by this are those with the Sun or Black Moon in Virgo or Pisces.

Add into the mix that we are under "double Crescent" energies since we are in the Crescent Moon phase of the second month that is like a month-long Crescent Moon phase.  We are doubly-challenged to preserve and protect what is important and meaningful to us under this energetic.  The Crescent Moon phase is in effect until early Wednesday, requiring exceptional perseverance on our part.

The intense solar storm is amplifying the energetics that are in effect based on the position of the planets today.  Today, the Sun is disseminating the energy of "a man on a magic carpet observes vast vistas below him."  This implies a momentary stop to take in the scene or expand our level of awareness.  We get a better view of the future.  This energy can also disconnect people, places and things, especially disconnect them from reality.  Since it's a "Black Moon Day," Black Moon Fever can become rampant, with people acting from their most fearful side.  We are aware of this potential today.

The Earth is located at the degree of "three stained-glass windows in a Gothic church, one damaged by war."  This energy is usually experienced as a bombardment on love.  Carelessness with feelings often ensues.  In many cases, we feel as if we are under attack by something.  Longtime readers know that this nebulous "something" was identified long ago by the Gnostics, who warned us of the danger of the Archons.

The Gnostics also told us our Sun, the being named Sabaoth, is an ally of humanity and the Earth.  Sabaoth's message with the CME is for us to be like the bareback rider in this circus of reality we find ourselves in and engage our skills of evading danger.  We can somersault over issues and see beyond them.

No matter how far above things we have to catapult, we always land with solid footing on the Earth.  Today we will remember what grounds us when we need to find ground - nature.

New Moon Phase: beginnings, intentions

Moon in Leo

Goddess of Wisdom: Bagalamukhi (Goddess of The Spoken Word)

God of Will: Ian (God of The East)

Skill: listening to the inner voice

True Alignments: taking time for observation and reflection, working with what one has on hand, inner voice, new ideas, proper conditions, the inherent rights of freedom, speaking truth, seeing a bigger picture, strength, whispers of the soul 

Catalysts for Change: avoidance, taking all the credit, manipulation of attention and what is in focus, jealousy, demands, drawing attention through high volume, vacillating, making a big show or announcement that is based on distortions, unmotivated, entrenched, obsessed

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "winter frost in the woods"

Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Year: "the music of the spheres"

The Sun released an M3-class solar flare with coronal mass ejection yesterday at 1:35 pm ET/5:35 pm UT.  The CME is partially Earth-directed and produced a radio blackout.   The Sun remains quite active today.

At the time of the CME, the Moon was located at 24 Cancer and the Sabian symbol of "a woman and two men castaways on a small island in the South Seas."  This is the Sabian symbol of the degree of the next New Moon -- the lunar cycle that begins with the New Moon in Cancer on July 15, 2015. 

The Cancer lunar cycle (the lunar month of July 15 - August 13, 2015) has been highlighted for several months.  Venus and Uranus will station retrograde back to back, and the month is a "cardinal" month or one of the "four corners" or "four directions."  Dramatic shifting occurs during cardinal months.  Uranus will station retrograde at the Eris Point, unleashing a revolution of light that continues the realignment with the value of life, liberty, and freedom from shadows.

With yesterday's CME activating the degree of the New Moon in Cancer, it seems the Sun sent it own highlight (sunlight) of it.

What does the image of the symbol "a woman and two men castaways on a small island of the South Seas" evoke for you?  Initial reactions are key.  How does your interpretation of the symbol relate to your life now?  How does it relate to what you have planned or in place between July 15 and August 13?  Insight into what the Sun is foreshadowing (forelighting) for the next month will spread throughout the weekend, as the electrical effects of the CME fully unfold.  So let's work with understanding the symbol and the message by letting it breathe, age, or mellow over the next few days.  The symbol itself implies that there is not a lot of room since it is a "small" island in the South Seas, so let's give it some space and time.

Keep in mind that we are under energetics this month that are like "winter frost in the woods."  It's a still, reflective time when internal life force builds strength and flows fluidly within the trees of the woods.  The stillness can be maddening if our minds (and identities and realities) are focused outside of ourselves.  There is no place to "go to ground," "root," "anchor," or "attach to" in the crumbling matrix of the old world.  We "ground" ourselves with the planet.  Spending time outside strengthens that connection.

At the start of this lunar month, the Gemini New Moon disseminated energetics for the month.  The positions of the planets at the time of a New Moon determine that month's "music of the spheres."  At the New Moon in Gemini, Jupiter was located at the degree of the Sabian symbol "American Indians perform a ritual to the Sun."  Let's give thanks.

New Moon Phase: beginnings, intentions

Moon in Cancer

Goddess of Wisdom: Bagalamukhi (Goddess Who Solves)

God of Will: Ian (God of The East)

Skill: bridge to the perception of what is being gained

True Alignments: open to venture or adventure, respect, the wisdom of experience, preserving and protecting what we hold dear, relief from pressure, observation of situations, new approaches bringing new solutions, opening our hearts to others, reverence

Catalysts for Change:  things that are outworn, deep disappointment, dissatisfaction, feeling stuck, sticking with past methods that are ineffective, leaving people out, blocking progress, hopeless outlook, fear of the unknown

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "winter frost in the woods"

Sabian Symbol for Solar-Lunar Year: "the music of the spheres"

During its transit opposite the Galactic Center yesterday, the Sun released an M1.3-class solar flare with coronal mass ejection at 9:27 pm ET/1:27 am UT.  The Moon was in near-exact opposition with Pluto at that time, located at 15 degrees of Cancer.  The Sabian symbol for this degree is "a group of people who have overeaten and enjoyed it."  The highest octave of this energy speaks of transformation through good fortune, fellowship, and satisfaction.  Spirit provides abundance.

When the Sun transits the Galactic Center, things can feel, on one end, limitless, and on the other end, insurmountable.  Either way, our perceptions open up to wider vision because the Great Void of the Unknown is activated.  This can drive people crazy.  It activates primal fears of survival because we are a traumatized species.  As such, our response to what is actually a process of liberation from power and control systems is askew.  We are responding as if the loss is a bad thing.  It is mass Stockholm Syndrome.

The only loss involved is the loss of that which does not support the sanity of humanity.

Today, the bright light of clarity provides a bridge from one perspective to another.  How about shifting to What are we gaining? 

(Note:  At the time of the CME, the Moon was located at 14 Cancer 34, in near-exact opposition with Pluto at 14 Capricorn 42.  Pluto is at the degree of "in a hospital, the children's ward is filled with toys" - healing through happiness and fun.  There's a toy for each of us if we can recognize it.)

New Moon Phase: beginnings, intentions

Moon in Cancer

Goddess of Wisdom: Bagalamukhi (Goddess Who Stabilizes, Goddess of the Power of Words)

God of Will: Ian (God of The East)

Skill: hold to a greater vision

Sabian Symbol for the Lunar Month: "winter frost in the woods"

Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Year: "the music of the spheres"

Today, the Sun will travel to make exact opposition with the Galactic Center, the Central Sun of our galaxy.  Exact alignment occurs at 5:19 pm ET/9:19 pm UT.  This angle happens only one day each year. 

The Galactic Center is the hub of our galaxy, and is a place or space or point of limitlessness.  It is a sacred place.  It opens us up, expanding our perception and understanding.  When the Sun comes into this configuration, a massive spiritual energetic is activated.

The vastness of the energy can be daunting, however.  The Sabian symbols describe it perfectly.  The Sun is located at the degree of the Sabian symbol of "a young gypsy emerging from the woods gazes at faraway cities."  We face the Unknown, which seems limitless under this dynamic.  Things can seem insurmountable.  Our programmed experience is that the unknown means something bad will happen.

But we do not know defeat, especially when we know that the highest spiritual frequencies are being disseminated.  The Sabian symbol for the degree of the Galactic Center is "a sculptor's vision is taking form."  Potential lies within the limitless of the unknown.  It lies beyond the fear.

We hold to our vision of the world aligned with goodness, knowing that this vision is taking form.  Our combined effort with spiritual allies makes it so.  We engage our will today, gazing at things that aren't so far away.

(Full report to return tomorrow.)
