Intense Blood Moon, A Grand Water Trine and Algol

CURRENT MOON

moon phase

October 29th: We are in the middle of one of the biggest Full Moon's of the year and the most emotionally trying. This is a  Full Hunter's Moon which takes place in the most fixed and  earthiest sign of the Zodiac, Taurus. Taurus is a feminine sign where the Moon is exalted where a practical, down to earth attitude pursues inner serenity. This is a sign  which favors preservation and the pleasures of life and hates to be uprooted.  The bull will oppose swift change in a stubborn and bull-headed manner.

Forget all the ominous and threatening events which are happening around this powerful Full Blood Moon.  A time when teh  Sun-Saturn in the sign of large transformations, Scorpio are opposing this usually routine oriented Taurus Moon. just try to realize: This is a value and money-conscious full Moon when debt and financial obligations will be in focus. Time to link monetary security, investment plans and being a true earth steward. This Full Moon also corresponds with major earth changes helped by  Mars separating from an opposition to Jupiter,  a time of action on many levels. We are in time when we must face sudden and unexpected shifts. We either have an attitude of misplaced courage or the need to act in a big way. Plus now that Mercury has entered Sagittarius to square Neptune, a time of major uncertainty. With Mercury-Neptune in hard aspect: there can be hype, deceptions escapism, panic and a time when situations may suffer collapse or merging. You don't have to look far to see that the Eastern Seaboard is in store for major deluge, flooding and wild winds. In my last blog, I put most of my focus on this Full Moon over Long Island - I mentioned this Super-Storm reflects a Grand Cardinal Cross present on the October 29th Full Moon where all the elements from air to water to earth to fire are represented with Uranus (Aries) opposing Venus (Libra)
crossed by Pluto (Capricorn) opposing Ceres (Cancer). The same is true for chart below set for October 29th set for Washington DC @ 3:49 PM this Monday. Pisces is rising with Neptune and Chiron which form an emotional Grand Water Trine with the Sun-Saturn in Scorpio in the fated 8th house and nurturing Ceres connected to the oceans in Cancer. This watery trine is hyper emotional yes and offers remarkable spiritual change. One more time the Grand Trine is comprised of Saturn in Scorpio (serious death/rebirth)to Neptune/Chiron in Pisces (compassion/healing offered via wounds and victims) Where Ceres (the nurturer/nutrition) in Cancer adds the final 120 degree angle which will have many offering help to the millions in the path of Sandy Plus Pisces is rising @ 11 degrees 22 minutes in the chart below which speaks of testing: Sabian Symbol for 12 degrees Pisces: : "An examination of initiates."

Blood Moon and Preservation. The Algonquin tribes from New England to Lake Superior called this October Full Moon the Full Hunter’s Moon or the Blood Moon/Sanguine Moon. The Native Americans were keenly aware of this season since it related to survival. The trees are loosing there leaves, the deer are fat and fed and it’s time to preserve the harvest and store up meat for the long winter ahead. Especially with some crazy disasters looming per the ongoing Uranus-Pluto waxing square into 2015, we need to be like these tribes and prepare. Yes these are times to protect and preserve. These are unsettled times of major transformations on the planet. yesterday evening October 27th on the WEST COAST where a 7.7 magnitude earthquake strikes Queen Charlotte region of BC Mercury is conjunct fixed star Toliman a white and yellowish star above the right front hoof of the Centaur. Toliman near Mercury is about learning tough lessons in life. According to Robson: Toliman with Mercury sounds a little like the weather and the meteorologists... Changeable, vacillating, fault-finding, difficult to please, good intellect, business success, trouble in domestic affairs through enemies, family sickness, disappointed ambitions. Today's Full Moon tomorrow @ 12:49 PM on the West Coast has Algol the Demon Star is conjunct S Node in Taurus. This particular star is positioned on the severed head that Perseus is carrying. Known as one of the most feared stars of all known for obsession and intensity. In reality it will be the fear of the transformation to come which will be worse than the effects.

Sandy Updates - State of Emergency Before the Full Moon - Shades of the Long Island Express

SCURRENT MOON

moon phase

From the lyrics for Sandy from Grease: 
  Love has flown all alone I sit I wonder why 
Why you left me, oh Sandy? 
Sandy, Sandy, why, oh Sandy? 

Sandy a Hybrid Storm more updates on October 27th: 

Ominous and detailed report on why this is a hybrid storm. We learn more about the rare, bizarre nature of Super Storm Sandy via this  Tropical Tidbit for Friday, October 26th, 2012 -  relating to the path of Hurricane Sandy and her sheer size, dangerous winds, high surf add up to a storm of Historic nature.  
The anatomy of this unusual storm and her shifting nature and barometric support is covered in the video below from weather enthusiast Levi Cowan. Levi,  has been tracking tropical systems closely since 2002 

As Sandy begins to move up the Eastern seaboard, evacuations start and possible panic and hysteria
could follow. Sandy is currently a Category 1 hurricane located off the East Coast of the U.S. The NWS lists the current location of the system as about 400 miles south southeast of Charleston, South Carolina.

Winds from Sandy are sustained at 75 mph. The storm is moving north at 7 mph. Still a ways from being a killer Still the  barrier islands off of Cape May county New Jersey began voluntary evacuations Friday afternoon.  Since Neptune is near Chiron in Pisces ready to station direct, the ships at sea are moving and The U.S. military will be moving ships from the Norfolk Naval Station region in Virginia out to sea to get out of the path of Hurricane Sandy.

  States are preparing as Sandy moves along the East Coast of the U.S. On the East Coast people are getting restless and nervous waiting for Sandy. The main stream media has seized on the idea of Frankenstorm which will keep them in ad revenue big time.   As we start the weekend with the Moon in impatient Aries ready to meet Uranus and more potentially deadly hurricane. With Sun-Saturn in Scorpio, the officials are serious about preparations.  The states of Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania and New York have declared a state of emergency as they await impacts from Sandy. The reason for declaring a state of emergency is to allow emergency response teams to be activated so they can begin preparing to respond.  This allows the teams to move quickly as emergency situations occur. The states of Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania and New York have declared a state of emergency as they await impacts from Sandy. So what prompted this situation as fear grows from the Frankenstorm? According to the officials, Sun in Scorpio, the reason for declaring a state of emergency is to allow emergency response teams to be activated? Even stranger as Mercury is in orb of a square to Neptune changing into mutable Sagittarius tomorrow is the scary idea of Sandy being planned back in the Ninties!  If we go back to 1997 when Sandy may have been planned 

With this Hurricane Simulation from the past things get murkier and more conspiratorial..

Westchester County Communications Officer Sandy Fried, an Amateur Radio operator and ODES staff member, had recently attended a training seminar in 1997 at the National Hurricane Center in Miami. Part of the training was a simulation using data from the Hurricane of 1938 that caused major losses on Long Island and in Westchester.

With  the Moon in Aries till Sunday @ 11:15 AM , response will be quick and sharp. Aries even though a fire sign connects will storms, hurricanes and wild weather virtue of ruler Mars Mars is about action and opposing Jupiter in Gemini, lots of the action involves HIGH and VOLATILE WINDS. Bottom line, Sandy is no joke or just a sensationalized weather event per the havoc in the in Caribbean
From the article below: "This system is one part hurricane, one part nor'easter and one part blizzard, potentially. Impacts of all three types of storms are possible depending on location."
Note that this Super-Storm reflects a Grand Cardinal Cross present on the October 29th Full Moon
where all the elements from air to water to earth to fire are represented
with Uranus (Aries) opposing Venus (Libra)
crossed by Pluto (Capricorn) opposing Ceres (Cancer)
chart below set for October 29th @ 3:49 PM ET when the moon is Full in Taurus and the tides are highest. It is projected that  around that time, Sandy will make landfall perhaps on Long Island, NY.

Comparing Sandy to the Long Island Express. I wrote on October 25, 2012: As the weather pundits scramble to make sense of this meterological convergence creating a Super-Storm scenario, we astrologers are drawing parallels not just to the 1991 New England Storm
but to The New England Hurricane of 1938 (or Great New England Hurricane, Yankee Clipper or Long Island Express In fact the similarities between Sandy's projected landfall on Oct. 29th a potent Full Moon are interesting... Since both the Sept. 20, 1938 and the Oct. 29, 2012 dates have Grand Trines and a number of TSQ's with next week's Full Moon also featuring a Grand Cross with Venus-Pluto-Uranus and Ceres all in active, Cardinal signs Also just like Sept. 20, 1938, the coming blast from Hurricane Sandy to the East Coast
has the fated Nodes of Destiny in Scorpio/Taurus Here is a chart below set for the 1938 New England Hurricane

Snow, gale-force winds, hurricane remnants, full moon (high tides): forecasters warn of ‘perfect storm’ scenario
NEW YORK - Much of the U.S. East Coast has a good chance of getting blasted by gale-force winds, flooding, heavy rain and maybe even snow early next week by an unusual hybrid of hurricane and winter storm, federal and private forecasters say. Though still projecting several days ahead of Halloween week, the computer models are spooking meteorologists.  For us astrologers this strange synchronicity with All Saints Day/Day of the Dead relates well to the Sun-Saturn conjunction in Scorpio opposing the Taurus Full Moon. 
This is the full lunation in October known by native americans as both the Full Hunter's Moon and the Full Blood Moon. 

Libra New Moon - a Call for Balance in a Dangerous Time

CURRENT MOON

moon phase

Taking a quick look at tomorrow's Libra New Moon which occurs @ 5:03 AM PDT or 8:03 AM EDT. The chart below is set for over Washington, DC. When we began to peruse, we immediately see that Saturn, Lord of Accountability and Karma is rising in Scorpio - not a wonderful omen for servicing debt. The chart's ancient ruler Mars is near Juno in overly exuberant Sagittarius in the 2nd House of Values, including money markets, banks and financial institutions. Both the warrior, Mars and the partnership asteroid Juno square Chiron, the ancient centaur healer now in victim sign Pisces. There will will be pain and wounds from this contact likely involving financial scandals.
Back to Saturn, the ringed planet  symbolizing security is rising with the messenger Mercury and N Node all in the sign of extremes, the stinging Scorpion or the soaring Eagle. The N Node of destiny is @ 26 degrees 22 minutes. North Node relates to moving into future destiny is also opposing S. Node in Taurus conjunct the Demon Star, Algol dealing with obsession intense sexual situations and intrigues. Saturn is also culminating with cruel ruthless Facies rising. Facies is the eye of the archer found in the Constellation Sagittarius known to have the penetrating stare of a lethal weapon. Facies is said to be one of the most potentially violent stars and with Saturn represents an outsider with an obsessive belief or action.

The Sun and Moon in balancing Libra reside in the 12th House representing news and issues centering around hospitals, prisons, institutions and any place of confinement or detention. Also with both of the lights in the 12th. issues concerning illness, charities, secret groups, secret government entities and enemies within will populate the mainstream news. Perhaps since Neptune, ruler of the 12th now near Chiron is square Mars and in the 4th house adding to more stories about oil, petroleum and the active, dangerous sinkhole in Louisiana. Poison and poisonings also correspond to the 12th house, Neptune  as they do Pluto and Mars rulers of Scorpio.  I mention the ongoing problem in Assumption Parish, where the latest Bayou Corne Sinkhole Flyover indicates: a thick slick of crude oil can be seen covering much of the sinkhole [...] oil and water can be seen flowing from the sinkhole into the adjacent environment.

The potential for widespread contamination is now a reality and not just in Louisiana. A recent story out of LOGAN COUNTY, Oklahoma underscores these fears - A water warning for residents in rural Logan County: a significant level of uranium has been found in the water. 

Tomorrow's New Moon @ 22 Libra 32 minutes will herald the start of something new as do all new moons. And this Sabian Symbol:
"A chanticleer (rooster) salutes the rising sun with exuberant tones."
My guess is that many of the hidden stories which have been in the shadows will surface in mainstream news. On a positive note Mercury (now in investigative Scorpio) is in a harmonious 60 degree angle to the lover Venus in detailed Virgo (Oct. 16th) will be boost to many relationships. From the business side especially high profile this combo is well aligned for mega mergers, agreements, business deals, the relaxing of controls by some of these companies. The Heliacal Rising Star for this Libra New Moon over both DC and San Francisco is Alkes. Alkes is the considered to be the sacred cup and alpha star of the constellation, The Crater. The Crater actually sits on the back of the Hydra given One legend says that the cup was given by Apollo to the raven ( Corvus) to fetch water. When Alkes is rising it is said to be the living vessel of a sacred body of knowledge or philosophy or prophetic gift. When we look below at the image we see the connections between Corvus, Alkes and the Hydra. Per George Noonan - Alkes has always portended eminence to those born under its influence. When rising the star indicates dedicated environmentalists whose love for rivers and streams lead them to be very protective regarding water resources I will go out on a limb and say during this lunation, the issue about polluting a number of aquifers in the Gulf Coast, further north, east and west is imminent and threatening. It is said that the aquifer system underlies parts of the East and West Gulf Coastal Plain and the Mississippi Alluvial Plain created by the Mississippi River on which lies parts of seven U.S. states, from southern Louisiana to southern Illinois.

Now the Heliacal Setting Star is Scheat. Scheat is found rising with the New Moon in San Francisco and DC. The star Scheat found in the constellation Pegasus. Scheat is known as love of intellect. This star is part of the Great Square of Pegasus which consisted of four stars; Alpheratz, Algenib, Markab and Scheat. As a setting star, Scheat reflects a time when one is forced to find success by leaving a safe place. Also in the chart above for DC, Scheat is culminating with Venus which inspires independent thought concerning style, fashion, relationships and new social customs. Scheat also has a major connection throughout history to floods and flood conditions. I have alluded to the fact over that last few weeks mainly because of the current Grand Water Trine involving Saturn (Scorpio) to Neptune(Pisces) and finally Ceres (Cancer).  The West Coast and Central USA might be in line with another Great Flood. In fact the Great Flood of 1862 or Noachian Deluge was the largest flood in the recorded history of Oregon, Nevada and California, occurring from December 1861 to January 1862. These floods which may have peaked on December 24, 1861 when another Grand Cardinal Cross was present with Neptune also in Pisces like today. the chart below was set for December 24, 1861 in Sacramento. Neptune rising opposing the Moon in Libra and Jupiter in late Virgo. They were crossed by the Sun-N Node in Capricorn, the seagoat opposing S. Node in wet Cancer on the IC. In comparison, tomorrow's New Moon has Pluto (Capricorn) opposing Ceres(Cancer) TSQ Uranus in Aries.

Saturn Enters Scorpio Right after Mercury - The Old Devil Wakes

CURRENT MOON

moon phase

Many people have been waiting with some trepidation for Saturn, a planet relating to contraction aka the Lord of Karma to enter the sign most related to extremes, sex, death, debt and taxes, Scorpio. Jupiter that planet representing expansion stationed in Gemini and moved retrograde on Oct. 4th causing a stir with everything from gas prices rising dramatically in California to sending a sarcastic, biting tweet during the debates about Obama's grandma - then apologizing. Jupiter  retro. in Gemini, also relates to communication and transportation. Mercury, the ruler of Gemini paves the way for Saturn by entering the Scorpion in the early morn @ 3:35 AM changing minds and mindsets. Time to dig deeper and investigate instead of just rapping about it.  Time for spies to ply their trade, time for espionage mentality.  The Wire might come to mind.

Saturn  is a planet related to the principle of crystallization and structure. Saturn has been described in less than glamorous tones with words like limitations, discipline, operating out of fear and humorless. Saturn has also been associated with the devil or Satan but actually is the  "Dweller on the Threshold" guarding the gates to true inner wisdom and freedom. Notice in the 15th. Arcanum or the Devil Card in the Rider-Waite Tarot Deck, those chains around the couple's necks can easily be lifted off once we see thru this false enslavement. In this card the Devil represents our bondage to material things rather than by an actual evil demon. The theme here obsession or an addiction to fulfilling our earthly base desires. Yes, Mars ruled Scorpio relates to many of those desires.

Saturn has been transiting in Libra since July 21, 2010.
 Saturn in the sign of the scales and beauty marked a time when people got serious about actors/actress, companionship, partnership, law, court rooms, social media and fashion.
 Saturn in Mars ruled, Scorpio won't compromise like Libra,
In fact Scorpio will forge ahead offering no quarter,  no clemency or no  mercy to the loser

 Saturn enters watery, fixed Scorpio connected to the 8th house tomorrow October 5th @ 8:34:14 PM Universal Time or 1:34:14 PM Pacific Time. The 8th house is connected to taxes, debt and other peoples money received thru inheritance or even joint finances. Making tomorrow's ingress even more potent is that Mercury enters Scorpio in the morning @ 3:35 AM PT or 10:35 AM UT which adds an element of revelation, a sharp mind, compulsive about getting to the bottom of things that are forbidden or taboo.  The chart below is set for 8:34:14 PM Universal Time and has Gemini rising with asteroid Vesta relating to commitment and focus in the area of communications.  Since Mercury the ruler of this chart is now in Scorpio, it takes a keen, sharp and investigative mind to cope with this change.

Saturn will remain in Scorpio till December 24th. 2014, we will have plenty of time to delve into the myriad of meanings here. Since Scorpio as a sign has garnered the most extreme meanings and traits. On the positive side, Scorpio, a feminine, nocturnal, autumnal is considered mysterious, sexually magnetic, charismatic. On the other side highly derogatory adjectives like insidious, vengeful, obsessive, cunning, treacherous, back stabbing etc. have graced this sign. Sure all of those emotions will bubble up and show their scary side during this transit. Yet there will be an emphasis on renewal, transformation, discipline and a movement to enhance sexual satisfaction. Ancient belief systems had it that scorpions were engendered from crabs. And when Saturn enters Scorpio a Grand Trine will be built to Ceres in the sign of the Crab, Cancer and to Neptune in the sign of the two fishes. Expect some huge events around the oceans and flooding just to name a few. In fact we have already seen Myths of star lore tell us that Skorpios (Scorpius) was a giant scorpion sent by the earth-goddess Gaia to slay the intimidating giant Orion who threatened to kill all the beasts of the earth. The Scorpion stung Orion on the heel (marked by the star Rigel, beta Orion) and killed him. These two opponents Orion and the Scorpion were placed amid the stars as their namesake constellations, but are positioned on opposite sides of the sky, one sets as the other rises. Interestingly when Saturn enters Scorpio shown in the chart above, the Moon-Jupiter together in Gemini will be conjunct Rigel which relates to the educator and disseminating knowledge. Mars which is at the last degree of Scorpio near the N Node is conjunct Toliman found in the constellation of the Centaur. Mars-Toliman together by longitude represent the rebel, activist who also is used by the authorities as a strong dominating power. In terms of fixed stars in paran at the time of this massive Scorpio ingress, lets look at the Heliacal Rising and Setting Stars for the chart for Saturn's ingress into Scorpio: First Alkes is the Heliacal Rising Star and found in the constellation Crater or the Cup which resides on the back of the Hydra. Alkes is the sacred cup representing something precious that we carry since we are the living vessel or body of knowledge. This could also include a special gift, talent or prophetic ability. In other words to be the living vessel of a sacred body of knowledge or philosophy Secondly Markab is the Heliacal Setting Star found in the saddle of Pegasus, the winged horse. Markab in this position is about standing firm for your beliefs and principles. Markab is also rising as Mars is culminating said to promote open handed efforts. More in keep with the Mercury-Saturn ingress into Scorpio according to Robson: Markab with Mars indicates quarrelsome, violent, many difficulties and losses through Mercurial affairs. Even darker, Elsbeth Ebertin claims that according to tradition Markab in conjunction with Mars, Uranus or Saturn, brings dangers from fire, weapons or explosions - that sounds par for the course.

By the end of the day this Friday, we will start seeing many of the hidden, volatile forces coming out of the shadows or mysteries and moving forward with great speed. From a meteorological perspective, with the ingress of Saturn into Scorpio forming a Grand Water Trine to Neptune and Ceres expect some really wet, flood conditions and extreme weather in North America and other parts of the world.

Expanding the Debates as Jupiter Stations and Mars/N. Node in Scorpio

CURRENT MOON

moon phase

On my website I have been slowly previewing some of the changes happening this important first week in October. One of those big shifts is that Jupiter is stationing moving retrograde tomorrow @ 6:18 AM PDT. Jupiter which always represents the principle of expansion whether direct or retrograde. When retrograde there can be s certain amount of outside contraction Jupiter also connects to banking so listen the 3rd party candidates Jill Stein and Rocky Anderson talk about breaking up the Big Banks. When Jupiter is retro. sometimes plans have a tendency to implode.  When retrograde, there is an emphasis on examining questionable morals, ethics and scandals blow up.  Also with Jupiter retro. we are asked to look inside for new meanings.  The debate tonight at the New World Order City Denver like their airport is a gateway to some pretty weird change. Jupiter connects to horses as does Neptune and on Oct. 7th, Mars which had just entered Jupiter ruled Sagittarius (the centaur) will square Neptune now retro. in Pisces. Below we see an apocalyptic horse which greets visitors to Denver  with glowing red eyes. 

From Vigilant Citizen:  Sinister Sites - The Denver International Airport. this is what welcomes you when you enter the gates of hell…sorry, I meant the gates of the airport. A 32 foot high fibreglass stallion with veins popping out of its whole body and demonic eyes that glow red. Nice. I heard the children love it. Interesting fact: the horse killed his creator, Luis Jimenez, while he was working on it. A portion of the sculpture came loose and smashed him, causing fatal injuries. His friends now say that the horse is cursed.

Jupiter is about luck, opportunity, prosperity, wisdom, abundance, ethics and when retro. offers opportunities to re-evaluate our society. Jupiter now in Gemini can be skeptical, doubtful, cynical and with moral indifference Yet Jupiter will combine idealistic beliefs with many distractions Of course there is a continued expansion of all mobile communications. Except that when retro. and in combination with Saturn in Scorpio, many networks or stations will be cut. I do expect Democracy Now and other alternative networks to make progress in popularity into 2013.

 This morning I created a chart set for the start of today's debate in Denver, Colorado Location: University of Denver in Denver, Colorado Air Time: 9:00-10:30 p.m. Eastern Time or 7:00-8:30 PM Mountain Time I call the astrology chart below "taking the gloves off but first the masks."

This one is not just about winners and losers even with Romeny's (born March 12, 1947)  Jupiter in Scorpio (power-driven with a hidden occult side)  riding the Mars-N Node wave, where  trying to harness the winter of discontent for America.
A chart below has the Denver Debate as the inner wheel and Romney Natal on outside wheel.
Romney may get a slight boost since his natal Mars (assertiveness), Mercury (illusory thinking) Ceres (religion as nurturing), Sun (identifies with Martyr/Messiah like idea) all in mutable confused emotionally crusading Pisces.  Yes all these watery pisces planets will even be more closely trine transiting Mercury-Saturn in Scorpio.  He also is just not well liked when Venus now in Virgo and soon Mars in Sagittarius will TSQ all these core energies in his chart.

.
Back to the chart set for the time of the start of the debate:
Just having Moon-Mars in opposition in hard charging Taurus vs. intense, deadly Scorpio makes the atmosphere of this debate super tense and stressful
Aries is rising @ 22 Degrees with this Sabian Symbol which speaks of the chart's ruler Mars now in Scorpio: "The Gate to the Garden of Desire."
This symbol is appropriate since Mars relates to desire as does Venus. Mars  is now in passionate Scorpio where desire steams. Mars in Scorpio can also be  manipulative and exploitative. Mars in  Scorpio is also conjunct the N. Node of Destiny (upheavals-behind the scenes action). Also a prelude to a new occult period coming on strong as Saturn changes signs.  The Mars-N Node combo is about composting and moving on, watching it die or pass away. On a positive side it will involve  undertaking a form of rehabilitation with the economy.
Regarding Obama's somewhat lackluster performance below is a chart with his natal chart on the outside wheel.  Aries rising was trine his natal N. Node Uranus in Leo where he fell back on some showmanship with moderate results. Actually Obama's usually over confident aspect of reflecting fame and popularity:  natal Mercury  @ 2 degrees Leo and Sun @ 12 degrees Leo will be at odds and  direct conflict with both Mercury-Saturn entering Scorpio (Oct. 5th)  This is reflected the closed minded, pessimistic and embittered force of people which is being emotionally whipped up to make sure he loses.

In other words the candidates should be taking a lesson from the 3rd party candidates who are ready to embrace a type of therapy which requires a total transformation. So Mars-N.Node oppose the Moon-S. Node in stubborn Taurus The South Node in Taurus can be too grasping and rigid. We will all need throw or change some habits. Taurus in the south node also relates to ancient Egypt and the age of Taurus.  But the Game is Changing -  consider that N. Node, Mars then Mercury and Saturn are all in Scorpio the most investigative sign of all the Scorpion. What has already been on the taboo, forbidden or considered to strange to discuss now reaches the mainstream.  Watch this video on FreemanTVhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jIEjOI5Mblc&feature=related which connects the Nephilim, Obama, Albert Pike and the Illuminati's push toward a NWO agenda. 

The chart  below has 7 TSQ's multiples with Mars and of course Uranus-Pluto TSQ Ceres in Cancer (food-GMO issues) and Uranus-Pluto TSQ the Sun in Libra (justice-legal issues). The Chart also has two very tight yods with one being a Yod kite. Both yods contain Mercury relating to communications, mind set, networks and transportation. First: at the head of the Yods Mercury(@ 28 Libra)/Saturn @ 29 Libra (Some Serious News or Shit is Getting Real)They are Quincunx Pallas (@ 29 Pisces) to South Node @ 27 Taurus near the Moon. The other Yod is known as a Focused Yod aka a Yod Kite And adds the opposition from Venus @ 0 Virgo to Neptune when everyone must accept defeats. Also with Venus now in Virgo the main topic was about jobs of course. And definitely about saving $ and just plain having money. Venus is sextile both Mercury/Saturn (which changes signs into Scorpio on the 5th relating directly to debt, deficit and taxes) and is Quincunx (150 degree adjustment/irritation)to Pallas now in medical oriented Pisces.

Amy Goodman calls her broadcast Expanding the Debate: LIVE Presidential Debate Broadcast

Watch live streaming video from democracynow at livestream.com

And in alignment with the Aries Moon is that Amy is going to the "fringe" or "pioneering" scenario so to speak. We are talking about some real changes in the name of the people but no thru the Democratic (Demogagues) or Republicans (Repugnicans) Only by allowing new voices like Jill Stein or Rocky Anderson will we be able to turn around ethics, morals, offer a larger perspective. This could be the advent of 3rd.4th, 5th. and multiple parties jumping into the national fray even catapaulting over the OWS movement. In line with the Aries Full Moon on Saturday Sept. 29th something new, novel and explosive will come out of these histrionic debates. Also by the election, people will become much more passionate about seeing real change occur within and without. 

An Explosive Aries Harvest Moon

CURRENT MOON

moon phase

A much anticipated and totally combustible Aries Full Moon is exact tomorrow @ 8:19 PM Pacific Time. If there ever was a time to take a stand and assert your independence this is it. To get a better understanding of some of the underlying power of this bold, blunt lunation think of daredevils who ski down Mt. Everest or take on the maverick waves. Perhaps the the image of an erupting volcano popping off without any notice will make a bigger impact...
like the picture below of Stromboli volcano in eruption on 5 July 2012:

Aries is known as the "first archetype" astrologically indicative of the birth of something novel. In your own horoscopes an Aries moon can be demanding, impetuous a prima donna who can turn into a little berskerer at time. Just like volcanoes, which are unpredictable and destructive, this Full Moon resides near Uranus in a sign alternately described as Hot, combative sulfurous, courageous, dynamic, intolerant totally impulsive and spontaneous. Just like an incendiary volcano where magma from wildly flows down to destroy whole towns, nothing can stop that dynamic rush of fire until it is all released. Just as this process graphically represents the birth of of a new geological feature whether it be mountains or islands. The First archetype delineates the beginning of creation when a new form emerges.

 A chart set for 8:19 PM in San Francisco, California has a stubborn Taurus rising with Venus ruler of this chart in proud,creative Leo in her natural 5th house indicating something theatrical or cinematic in the SF Bay Area. Actually Venus is part of Grand Cross or Square opposing Hygeia in Aquarius and Neptune (so there could be some surprises around issues of health/disease). I emphasize the issue around health/sickness only because the Libra Sun, Mercury and Saturn are all in the 6th house. But this more likely will involve a crisis around the police, public service or city employees. Mars ruler of Aries, is super potent and intense in Scorpio near the N Node of destiny to help us break apart denial. Both Mars-N Node oppose the many stubborn past issues represented by S Node in Taurus.

Actually tomorrow's the Full Moon in Aries is somewhat of a reversal of the Spring lunaton in Libra on April 6th which occurred right before two major quakes: one 8.6 magnitude and the other 8.2 magnitude mentioned in this recent article: Sumatran earthquakes in April were part of tectonic plate breakupSuch was the case on April 11 when two massive earthquakes erupted beneath the Indian Ocean off the coast of the Indonesian island of Sumatra, far from the usual danger zones. Now scientists say the seafloor ruptures are part of a long suspected, yet never before observed, event: the slow-motion splitting of a vast tectonic plate. Check out Chart for Libra Full Moon Here. The most striking configuration was not just the Sun/Vesta in Aries opposing the Moon and Saturn in Libra but a Grand Cross in mutable signs with Mars in Virgo then opposing Neptune-Chiron in Pisces and crossed by the Nodes.

 September 29th promises to be a wild day when the Sun in Libra opposes Uranus, the awakener @ 12:16 AM always at time of total unpredictability . In fact there is likely to be a momentous and sudden break with the usual way things are done. With Uranus involved, a radical, restless, highly independent spirit will lead in the eccentricity today. The Libra Sun then makes a T-Square to Pluto in Capricorn @ 10:54 AM which could mark a darker time of strong obsessions for power, exploitation by extremists/terrorists and dictators. To underscore the morning we have the Moon meeting Uranus in aggressive Aries @ 6:40 PM then making a square to Pluto @ 7:34 PM. Will this harvest also bring a time of renewal and phoenix like triumph? Or will we see a literal harvest of destruction? Will financial markets go over the edge as is happening in Spain? Aries is always about the awakening of new forces along with pioneering innovations especially with the Moon near Uranus. It may take a while before these new activities integrate within society but they are coming. Tradition says that Time for the harvest moon is when our fertile crops should be at their most abundant. Today's Full Corn Moon or Full Harvest Moon comes from Native Americans, who considered this the optimum time for their corn was to be harvested comes at the end of the day @ 8:19 PM. Them Moon at 8 Aries is described by this Sabian Symbol: "A woman's hat with streamers is blown by the East Wind." The Sun is @ 8 Libra with this Sabian Symbol: "A blazing fireplace in a deserted home." As often is the case today, the September full moon is actually the Harvest Moon, which is the full Moon that occurs closest to the autumn equinox.

Fireball/Meteor Hails the 2012 Autumnal Equinox and a Galactic Alignment

CURRENT MOON

moon phase

Tonight as if on cue, a bright meteor is reported over Northern UK and Ireland, before tomorrow's Autumnal Equinox begins @ 7:49 AM PDT. Like a dramatic prelude before the Sun enters Libra @ 2:49 PM UT when the tilt of the Earth's axis is inclined neither away from nor towards the Sun. VERY bright and spectacular meteor seen over northern UK!"
Here is a video of the huge meteorite

 Tonight, September 21st: Talk about your Explosive Sagittarius Moon and the Sun moving into Libra a sudden, volatile and meteoric TSQ to Uranus-Pluto! At the time of the sightings around 22:00 UTC, reports of of an extremely bright fireball moving over the northern part of the UK A chart set for this time has Cancer rising @ 5 degrees With this appropriate Sabin Symbol:"An automobile wrecked by a train." The Cancer ascendant forms a Grand Cross opposing Pluto in the 7th and TSQ Uranus at Mid-Heaven while the Sun-Mercury are intercepted at ground zero the 4th house. The Moon the ruler of this chart is in Sagittarius opposing Jupiter-Vesta in Gemini. Sagittarius deals with deep space and exploration while Jupiter expands messages of all kinds.This story surfaces: Romantic or Reckless: The plan to message aliens with Twitter.
That’s the goal of Tweets in Space a project — sorry, “performance art piece” — by two guys with starry, starry eyes. As part of this year’s International Symposium on Electronic Art in New Mexico. 

Back to the chart, where  the Sun representing all things Fire is positioned out of sign @ 29 Virgo 18 when the fireball was eyed. Sabian Symbol for 30 degrees Virgo: "Having an urgent task to complete, a man doesn't look to Distractions." There is a very tight Arowhead, Thors Hammer, Quadriform or God's Fist - This volatile, tense aspect consists of two plants Venus-Leo and Mars-Scorpio in a square aspect (90 degrees). This dynamic pair are both in an octile or sesqui-quadrate aspect (135 degrees) to Pallas in Aries. The energy of a Thors Hammer exudes danger and boldness and is a pattern similar to a T-square, since it has a  stressful, dynamic quality. However, the octile aspects (based on dividing the circle into 8 pieces) tend to be a little more complex than the square or opposition Mr. Solar will be moving into a cardinal, sign of balance and scales. Libra tomorrow. The chart below has as expect the planet of sudden spontaneity Uranus near Pallas both in primal fire sign Aries and opposing the Sun and Mercury at ground zero

Since the astrological transits tend to began before the news cycle hits be ready because tomorrow's First Qtr Moon is a doozie. The First Qtr. phase occurs on 9-22 @ 12:41 PM right after the Sun enters Libra
First to arrive is the Fall Equinox for the Northern Hemisphere @ 7:49 AM PDT >or 2:49 PM Universal Time Chart set below for London, UK - the international financial center and media control room of the western world. Pluto, the lord of death and rebirth is rising in Capricorn setting the stage for a Grand Cross marking a new cycle. Suffice to say this is one powerful chart with 9 TSQ's, two Grand Trines both involving Saturn in justice oriented Libra, a Yod or Finger of God where the S Node is quincunx both Saturn (stability) and the Moon (emotional outbursts). Finally to get things in the air is Kite formation involving an out of sign trine. Formed by Ceres the oddess of nurturing, grains and food in the last degrees of Gemini (changes sign into Cancer on Sept.26th.)

More importantly,  today's Equinox and the Grand Cardinal Cross Mean a Galactic Alignment


Back  to  Ceres in Gemini, and something more down to earth - check out the latest news about GMO food.
World Awakens To Massive GMO Dangers So Ceres is trine Saturn, accountability-karma (exalted in libra) in a trine to spiritualized Neptune in boundless Pisces. Then the moon becomes the fourth planet making an opposition to to Ceres , forming a symmetrical figure. The opposition forms the "spine" of the kite. The major challenge featured here is the opposition which brings conflict, polarization, disagreement and stress even though it is dynamic and motivating. This Ceres-Moon opposition on the axis of foreign/international affairs and travel Gemini/Sagittarius relates to separation anxiety, rejection and isolation.

The Heliacal Rising Star is again Alphard, the Heart of the Sea Serpent or the Hydra.   Alphard is manifesting as the turbulent, chaotic and violent energies of living life on the edge.  This star relates to intense encounters and obsessive actions. Speaking of tense encounters at sea, a new element enters the conflict between Japan and China and the disputed territories. A protest ship from Taiwan joined around a dozen Chinese vessels in waters near Japan-administered islands 
 The Heliacal Setting Stars are: Sadalmelek - the Lucky One of the King found in the constellation Aquarius - all about making your own luck with a positive network. Findig opportunities in a small idea that grows into fruition. The other The Heliacal Setting is Sualocin found in the Dolphin Constellation relating to natural talent, mastery, confidence and consumate skills. Sualocin as the Setting Star speaks of discovering a hidden talent which can lead to great success. Plus all of these cosmic energies square the Sun in Libra This time of equal day and light will encompass a time of rebalancing and swift justice but for whom?

Dangerous and Chaotic Times with Pluto stationing to square Uranus

CURRENT MOON

moon phase

Today September 16th. It doesn't take a weatherman or an astrologer to tell you the the world is experiencing massive upheavel, political tumult and soon socio-economic chaos. Even with the Moon entering the most diplomatic and negotiating sign Libra this morning, the structural underpinings of the system and the matrix are undergoing fundamental change. Yes even with the new tribe represented by Libra entered the scene @ 5:55 AM and more justic-oriented mindset represented by Mercury makes an entrance into Libra @ 4:22 PM
the ferocity of unstoppable change has been unleashed.

The tribe of charmers, diplomats and indecisive judges will have a huge battle in store. Over the next two days we will find out whether Discretion is the better part of Valor or if the world is finally ready to Make Love Not War! Astrological breakdown and deconstruction of major transits: First we have Pluto stationing direct on September 17th @ 10:05 PM, in Capricorn @ 6 degrees 58 minutes With protests worldwide and potent reactions we are seeing the display of aggressive and outright power. An armada of U.S. and British naval power is amassing in the Persian Gulfin the belief that Israel is considering a pre-emptive strike against Iran’s covert nuclear weapons program. Consider that the Libra Moon and Mercury are square Pluto, the power player
This is a time when tolerance and patience are sorely need but are pushed aside in favor of drastic actions.

Many old wounds (Chiron in Pisces sextile Pluto) have been reopened under the guise of religion.
and Mars transiting in compulsive Scorpio square Venus in Leo which has resulted in multiple, violent confrontations.
With Pluto direct expect power plays and takeover attempts to occur.
Those who have hid in the shadows are unleashing previous secret forces.
The drama includes sides that are drawn when primal urges are acted upon.
Revelations and deeper secrets will be revealed. This is a time of global cleansing but to what end? From the religious and fundamentalist sects this is an important time : Rosh Hashanah, the Feast of Trumpets and the first of the High Holy Days begins at Sunset today

Sunset today for Jerusalem, Israel it is 6:44pm LMT and ends at nightfall of September 18th.


A chart set below for the start of Rosh Hasanah has Aries rising with volatile Uranus in the hidden 12th house opposing the Moon-Mercury and the Sun. This is a time when the desire to free oneself from all limitations, prisons is strong and volatile. Mars, the warrior and ruler of this chart is in the 7th house and in Scorpio. The 7th house where all the open enemies are gathered in the straits of Hormuz. The N North Node and Juno are also in the sign of the Scorpion in their home base in the 8th house

Some religious adherents mostly Christian some Hebrews are ascribing this holiday with mystical and revelatory terms saying this is the time when the Rapture Occurs We see with Neptune the planet of spiritual truths and illusions TSQ the Nodes all kinds of beliefs will be shouted forth. Since Mars now transiting in Scorpio and conjunct fixed star Zuben Elgenubi at the claw or pan found in the southern Claw of the Scorpion located constellation of Libra. this is likely to be a time of major social reform and a movement when intense hard work is needed to rebuild the world community. Older astrologers, like Robson have a more dire interpretation: With Mars, Zuben Elgenubi will bring "Bitter quarrels, entailing bloodshed or death"  This is a time when Prayers are Necessary! September 16th - As I said the Moon and Mercury entering cardinal Libra also translates the light and power of the upcoming Uranus-Pluto confrontations on September 18th./19th. Today in the short term watch the rapid and unexpected changes this afternoon as the Moon Squares Pluto @ 5:33 PM. This can be a time of forced power struggles when darker emotions like jealousy and territoriality can be set off.
best to work toward cleaning up your side of the street. September 16th: an explosive time occurs when this Libra Moon is Opposite Uranus in volatile and incendiary Aries @ 5:42 PM Expect the Unexpected. Along with some disruptions in the flow of events including fires, explosions and violent attack On the positive side and there is always a positive side this aspect can give rise to new ideas and major discoveries within and without
In other words best to ride these tremendous forces for change to complete ongoing projects

Secondarily: part and parcel to these huge changes on September 18, 2012: Uranus Squares Plutowhich is exact @ 11:55 AM PDT or September 19, 2012 @ 2:55 AM EDT or September 19th. @ 5:55 AM Universal Time. This is the 2nd. of 7 highly potent Cardinal Waxing Squares into March 2015 that will shape the entire planet with a massive awakening and devastating transformation. As I have said these are dangerous times framed by chaotic and revolutionary energies. Energies similar to the the period between 1932 and 1934 but with much more devastating technology yielded by the global elite.
These energies will touch everything including socio-political and economic areas. Per example economically: Bad Omen: Egan-Jones Slashes U.S. Credit Rating in Response to Fed’s QE Geological and technical disasters are not only possible but are happening constantly.
Per example ">at the Louisiana sinkhole where men tampered with the deeper forces of the earth
Or ongoing earthquake swarms and volcanic eruptions
Puerto Rico/Virgin Islands Region or myriad places around the planet where the earth's tectonic plates are shifting big time. Persistent and intense conflicts between different factions of societies and culture could mean major loss of life. 'Nothing would remain’ of Israel if they attack Iran: ‘we would no longer be committed to Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty’ It will take some serious intervention to prevent a major attack. Strikes, protests as in Pakistan, and attempts at collective bargaining reflect some of the manifestations of these transits. 
Change will occur with huge losses during this period, when prayers are necessary.  
As we saw yesterday September 15th. protests have escalated and spread worldwide and disagreements are beyond religion and involve territory too ! In Southern China Thousands of Chinese targeted Japanese cars and businesses in the southern Chinese cities of Zhuhai and Guangzhou on Saturday as protests spread to other major cities amid growing tension between Asia's two biggest economies over a group of disputed islands. Paramilitary police with shields and batons tried to hold back, and occasionally scuffled with, the crowd of slogan-chanting, flag-waving protesters. Today September 16th: U.S Defence Secretary Leon Panetta states that China-Japan "heading towards war."

Virgo New Moon - a time of contradictions, living on the edge of new pathways .

CURRENT MOON

moon phase

We are set to experience a crucial Virgo New Moon @ 7:11 PM for the West Coast. Thsi lunation is filled with contradictions where the deviance is in the detail. My summary slightly condensed: " A New Moon in the sign of the servant and critic @ 7:11 PM dominates. Both the Moon and Sun @ 24 degrees Virgo with a curious sabian symbol of the striving for purity that reflectes this sign: "Mary and her white lamb." Or is this they symbol of a sacrificial lamb?" Sacrificial victims of course relate to Pisces, the opposite sign dealing with religion and video. With this description let's stop and look at this astrological event set for "Hollyweird" where the fantasy factory is working overtime. I am using Hollywood because we now know that 'Innocence Of Muslims' Shot On Hollywood Set, Film Permit Connected To Christian Charity Pisces the sign of illusion, videos, poetry and misplaced ideals, is rising @ that karmic, anarectic 29th degree.

It has been pointed out that the word Anaretic is a Greek word that means `destroyer' or `that which kills'. And with Juno closely trine the ascendant @ 29 degrees Scorpio not only the principle of personal revenge is evident but in the larger sense their is a process of disintegration. In fact since Pluto, the planet relating to destruction and renewal is at the Mid-Heaven and closely square Uranus, the awakener in the first house. Unquestionably we are seeing the end of an old cycle and the beginning of a new one. In order for this to occur we have the Heliacal Rising Star, Canopus rising before sunrise in Los Angeles County. Canopus is the Keel of the ship Argo Navis, the brightest star in the constellation of Argo. Canopus is the great navigator or pathfinder known to help carry the dead to the afterlife in Egyptian myth. Per Robson: "Canopus contains the nature of Saturn and Jupiter; and, to Alvidas, of the Moon and Mars. It gives piety, conservatism, a wide and comprehensive knowledge, voyages and educational work, and changes evil to good." This does seem like a more hopeful designation to Canopus is that it is the pathfinder who offers a new approach to solving problems. Be aware too that Canopus is associated with dominant leadership which can destroy that which it created. On the other side of the wheel diligent and detail oriented Mercury is opposing in Virgo. No matter how confusing the events of the last few days appear, Mercury exalted in Virgo is highly observant and will continue with a critical eye. Sacrificial victims of course relate to Pisces, the opposite sign dealing with religion and video. Perhaps more telling is that Mercury is near the New Moon and Mercury the communicator and messenger is working overtime during this lunation. Note that the New Moon set for Washington, DC is @ critical 0 degrees Gemini and we should have more words, condemnations and blunders from the leaders who with S Node in Taurus near the Ascendant want desperately to prop up the economy with a desperate QE3 attempt. So with this combination of the Sun-Moon-Mercury all square Vesta (focus) and Ceres (nurturing) in the highly verbal sign of Gemini, expect lots of talk, oration and verbal blunders which will continue to go viral and not solve much. Actually the real news today will also involve earth changes including landslides and quakes. Also many news reports will be exaggerated and hyped with the Moon square Jupiter @ 5:52 AM. Looking quickly at the new moon chart set for London, UK on Sept. 16, 2012 @ 2:11 AM Universal Time has Royal Leo rising in a potent square to Mars in Scorpio posited the 4th house - a dangerous combination. Sure there are a million distractions like the topless pics. of Kate M. published to an Irish newspaper. Who cares when we have the threat of extreme and volatile events getting out of hand.

Then there are the fixed stars. In fact Alphard the Heliacal Rising Star rising before sunset is the same as that over DC on this New Moon. Alphard relates to living a life close to the edge filled with passion,daring or to seek obsessive, intense emotional encounters. Alphard is known as the "Heart of the Serpent" located in the neck of the Watersnake. If rising per Robson: There will be much trouble, anxiety and loss in connection with estates, lands and building; the native will be addicted to women and intemperance. Emotional upheavals and or distress, criminal activitiy The Heliacal Setting Star is Sadalmelek found on the right shoulder of the Water-Bearer Aquarius - Setting before Sunrise - Sadalmelek is located on the right shoulder of the constellation Aquarius. Aka the Lucky One of the King. This star is all about making your own lucky breaks. Opening the door to opportunity when we can use our own personal network to succeed. Our connection to Mercury and the powers of observation with the help of some detailed planning will bring success or at least preparations for some of the extreme events coming quickly with the Next Full Moon on September 29th when the Sun in Libra will translate the light in spectacular fashion to the ongoing worldwide awakening per Pluto (Capricorn) square Uranus (Aries) .

Virgo New Moon and Possible Eruption Near Salton Sea In Imperial Valley

Forget the Muslims, Protests in in Egypt, Yemen, Tunisia, Morocco, Sudan, Iran, Iraq, Israel and the Palestinian territories. Forget the violent mobs, Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, the film maker behind incendiary Innocence Of Muslims. Forget the Fundamentalists, Neo-cons, Politicos, Obama, Romney, the Illuminati because Mother Earth - Pacha Mama is in Charge and is revved up by terrestrial fire! The next new moon occurs on September 15th @ 7:11 PM PDT/10:11 EDT in the sign of changeable, mutable earth, Virgo @ 23 degrees 37 minutes. Pluto, the lord of the underworld and great transformer will be stationing direct. Breaking now we are hearing that we could have a possible Eruption Near Salton Sea In Imperial Valley Could Bring Ash Clouds To San Diego This eruption will be different than the volcano that erupted in Guatemala today but adds to the list many that are active and ready to erupt. According to the geologists: The damage from one those eruptions was limited to the surrounding area, but if a major earthquake hit along the San Andreas Fault, geologists said there could be trouble.
 

A chart set for the Salton Buttes/Salton Beach and the next New Moon @ 7:11 PM has Aries rising and a Grand Cardinal Cross formed at all the angles. Pluto, the destroyer sits at the Mid-Heaven closely square Uranus, the shocker in fiery Aries in the first. Ruler of the chart, Mars @ 16 Scorpio intense and explosive in the 8th house square Venus.

To get a realistic glimpse of the current awakenings of mother earth take a look at today's sudden eruption of  Volcan del Fuego, which sits about six miles southwest (16 kilometers) from the colonial city of Antigua.   a Guatemala volcano erupts outside tourist center, officials ordered 33,000 evacuated
