CURRENT MOON
Just about finished with Blogging on the Fifth Day, with this August 16th archive
resonating with the Superior Venus Conjunction of the Sun. Venus is unique and rotates in an opposite direction from all the other planets in the solar system.
Venus is intimately connected with both Quetzalcoatl, and Tezcatlipoca.
Viewed from the earth, Venus' full synodic cycle (from inferior conjunction to inferior conjunction with the Sun) takes 584 days, or about 1.6 years. After nearly 8 years and 5 synodic cycles, Venus returns to its starting point after 5 successive inferior conjunction points that occur during its retrograde cycles trace a pentagram around the zodiac during this time, flavoring each conjunction and pentagram series with its own unique stellar influences. During the past 8 years the zodiac signs impacted by this fivefold pattern are: Taurus, Libra, Pisces, Leo, and Sagittarius.
In fact on this August 16th there were three separate Leo conjunctions - first the Sun-Venus
@ 5:08 AM, then Mercury (now retro) and Venus @ 4:21 PM and finally the Sun-Mercury meeting @ 6:04 PM. This Mercury conjunction marks start of the 116-day cycle of Mercury with an inferior conjunction with the Sun. This celestial event describes how Sun, Mercury and Earth are aligned, with Mercury standing between the Sun and Earth Just a quick aside with all this attention getting Leo, the Sun-Mercury big announcement aspect inspired politician and pundit feral brother to neo-con sorority sister to spout off.
Back to Night 5 of the 9th Wave (Aug. 18th) which got off to a wildly dramatic start both on earth and on the Sun. From explosions in Gaza to Seventeen killed in Israel attacks to more global economic collapse - Global markets: Stocks slump on US recession fears, Europe woes.
Remember that Tezcatlipoca (ruler of Night 5) is the eternal opposite to Quetzalcoatl
and today 8-18-2011 - A timely briefing at NASA with the Moon in active solar oriented Aries in trines to both Mercury (communications) and Venus (emotions) both in Leo
Looking back on the monster X-Class flare on August. 9th, nobody can deny that the solar cycle 24 is producing hyper active coronal mass ejections (CME)
In fact on this August 16th there were three separate Leo conjunctions - first the Sun-Venus
@ 5:08 AM, then Mercury (now retro) and Venus @ 4:21 PM and finally the Sun-Mercury meeting @ 6:04 PM. Just a quick aside with all this attention getting Leo, the Sun-Mercury big announcement aspect inspired politician and pundit feral brother to neo-con sorority sister to spout off.
We are seeing Solar Cycle 24 continue to be dynamic and active with new sunspots appearing daily.
Below we see more evidence of continued solar activity with massive solar prominence from sunspot group 1271
In Falmouth, Maine, photographer John Stetson turned his solar telescope toward sunspot group 1271 and found it seething. "The active region is bright and crackling, surrounded by long, twisting filaments of magnetism that seem poised to produce some powerful flares," he says. Indeed,NOAA analysts note that the sunspot has a "beta-delta-gamma" magnetic field that harbors energy for X-class explosions.
Tuesday's Sun-Venus superior conjunction was exact @ 5:08 AM PDT
It is interesting that this superior conjunction was in the sign of Leo where the Sun is exalted and now highly active.
Note that: The superior conjunction occurs when Venus is at its greatest distance from Earth and passes behind the Sun.
During this interval, Venus is out of sight for almost 60 days. Venus reappears from this much longer period of darkness as an evening star in the west where she sets a little later each night while increasing in brilliance, until she turns retrograde and heads toward her next inferior conjunction with the Sun a month later.
Solar Explosion Passes Close to Venus
Yesterday, the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory witnessed a spectacular explosion on the sun that seemed to pass perilously close to Venus. Did the cloudy planet survive? Play the movie for answers:
