Black Moon Magic rituals to transform your life

The Black, Dark, New Moon in LIBRA brings us deeply magical energies to make magic with for transformation and growth. 

Black or Dark Moons occur when there are two New Moons in one calendar month. They occur every couple of years.  Not so RARE as all the silly web grabbing gobbledygook headlines purport. 

In fact, it is only a BLACK moon if you live in specific time zones like PDT or EDT. The New Moon occurs October 1st @ 12:11 am GMT making this just an ordinary New Moon for a great deal of the world. 

EAST of Greenwich there is a DARK MOON where I live in EDT so for us folks in these times zones lets look at what this particular New Moon offers. 

The Black or DARK Moon is ruled by the Dark Feminine Goddesses, like LILITH, HEKATE, KALI and ERIS. This is a time to examine, talk about and learn from our deepest darkest secrets and shadows in our intimate relationships.

The SUN, Moon, and JUPITER are in a triple conjunction, making this a very positive time for connecting with new people, expanding the love quotient in an existing relationship and being  extremely social. This is all well and good. 

PLUTO is squaring the SUN and MOON 

The essential self and our emotions are what still need to be transformed and ensouled. 

SUN + MOON are inconjunct to NEPTUNE and the SOUTH NODE

"Those who cannot remember their pasts are bound to repeat the same mistakes. " This is a very apt lesson and warning for everything going on right now, in all aspects of our lives. Think about your patterns, where you have failed, didn't listen to your intuition, failed to see the consequences. That is what to use this New Moon energy for. 

NEPTUNE is oil and the NO DAP Indigenous protests gathered the largest number of different tribes together recently to attempt to block a pipeline going through their ancestral burial grounds and to stop possible future spillage and environmental degradation. Those lands were just sold out from under the indigenous peoples and ruthlessly the companies responsible are suing 40 people who are "obstructing" their raping of the land. This makes me feel so heartsick. We were all so positive, there was national coverage of this, the government agreed to stop a section of this. Only to now have indigenous peoples hauled out of their protest area by army trucks just like in Tiananmen square.  We do not need to use oil anymore. There are alternatives to provide clean, cheap, safe resources for energy. The oiligarchy must be stopped. 

Planet MARS is in early Capricorn squaring the threesome. 

There is a conservative reticence to express emotions by men under this aspect. It stifles feelings, because Mars in Capricorn is all business and hard facts.

Planet VENUS is in Sexy SCORPIO in a threesome with the darkest Goddess of all LILITH and JUNO the Feminine form of Genius. 

This is an entirely other kettle of fish, the metaphor is intended.

VENUS is exactly trining Neptune in PISCES 

The likelihood of getting seduced or seducing someone using Lilith's seductive ways and Juno in SCORPIO's X-Ray vision to detect secrets along with her amazing genius is very high.  Be careful of not getting drugged at a party or drinking too much or falling for the delusion of the perfect soul mate at this NEW MOON. NEPTUNE Is conjunct to the SOUTH NODE so there

NEPTUNE is conjunct to the SOUTH NODE in PISCES

There is past life issues, psychic attacks,  karma and debts to be settled now. 

Even though Saturn and NEPTUNE are separating from their square, the blow back, and aftershocks must be dealt with now as Saturn is also Squaring the North and South Nodes. 

Retribution, restitution, maturity, hard work, patience, reality, aging, consequences are all important issues now. MAKE IT REAL is all you have to remember. 

MERCURY is inconjunct to URANUS and ERIS in ARIES

Mercury in VIRGO also helps us to think about the earth,our environment and how modern technology is still destroying it. These energies can produce nasty surprising shocks. ERIS is the outsider, the troublemaker, the shit disturber, one who is not afraid to confront the system. Donald Trump is in some ways that person personified in his weird conservative way. 

HEKATE is the Goddess of the crossroads.  She is a magical Goddess, governing storms, night, dreams, ghosts, spirits, wild animals, witchcraft, sorcery, poisonous plants, and recycling. Offering are made to her at triple crossroads during a Dark moon.  Hekate can see into all the worlds at once, she is a guardian of the Twilight, between the spirit and physical world. She is known as the MOTHER OF ANGELS, Saviour and COSMIC WORLD SOUL.  Hekate also rescued PERSEPHONE from the Underworld. PLUTO's realm.  Garlic is offered to her. She also rules over a number of other plants often poisonous, medicinal and/or psychoactive plants.  ACONITE, wolfsbane, or monkshood, is also a homeopathic remedy, belladonna- used to raise a fever, a hallucinogenic, dittany and mandrake, also hallucinogenic and used by Wiccans and druids in ancient cultures. 

HEKATE is ASTEROID #100

At 3 degrees GEMINI, she is squaring the Karmic Nodal axis and opposing SATURN in SAGITTARIUS forming a MUTABLE GRAND CROSS 

Note the number 3 symbol. 

KAALI, ASTEROID # 4227 

Asteroid KAALI is the Black Goddess of Death and REBIRTH @ 21degrees LIBRA 

KALI is the great DARK Blue/Black Goddess who destroys the ego. She is fearsomely destructive but for a good reason. Her position at 21+ degrees LIBRA is opposite URANUS and ERIS another neglected Goddess.They are also in a Cardinal T-square to PLUTO. 

This energy is like an atomic bomb ready to ignite. The ignored Divine Feminine's dark side is about to go ballistic. These dark Goddesses act to protect the sacred feminine, the earth Herself, women, animals, and all Feminine values and qualities of love, nurturing, nourishment,protecting, and life itself. 

RITUAL to the DARK GODDESSES

We need to call upon and Honor these dark Goddesses so that we may act as their go-betweens. 

I would set up a triune altar. Think about three roads or options. Offer garlic cloves and teas or herbs from those

For HEKATE, offer garlic cloves, teas or herbs from those mentionsed as sacred to her. 

For KALI, offer knives, red hibiscus flowers, a yoni symbol, and a lingam, a phallic symbol, and red wine. 

For LILITH, offer red wine, sexual fluids or saliva, and most especially menstrual blood if you are bleeding on the New Moon. Use red flowers roses, or red carnations. All black or red gemstones, onyx, mahogany obsidian, hematite, apache tears, dark smokey quartz, jet, black tourmaline, obsidian, red jasper, carnelian, bloodstone, ruby, dark blue or black sapphire, star diopside. 

These three Goddesses respond to all black or red gemstones, onyx, mahogany obsidian, hematite, apache tears, dark smokey quartz, jet, black tourmaline, obsidian, red jasper, carnelian, bloodstone, ruby, dark blue or black sapphire, star diopside. 

 Smudge before beginning your dark moon ritual. Call in the four directions and elements clockwise direction from east to south, west, and north. Sit within your circle, light three candles, red, black,and dark blue or dark purple.  Put your offerings onto the altar. Offer them to the Goddesses. Call their names out loud; Hekate, Kali, LILITH and ERIS come to me in this circle at the DARK MOON. 

Ask them to help you bring balance into your life, your loves and into the world. Ask how you can be an agent of change for the better, for peace, harmony. and love. Ask how you can find it in yourself first. 

Sit as long as you need. When you feel complete. Close the circle, thank and release the 4 elements, spirits, Goddesses and directions into their directions with gratitude, Drink the wine  and ponder further. Write notes, draw or record what you felt. Ask the Goddess to keep working with you in your dreams for three days. 

Try it, these are powerful Goddesses, if you ask for change, be prepared to act. This is the time of new beginning and balance. We all need to be part of the balancing act.

take the bull by the horns Astrology Solar Eclipse in Taurus May 9/10

TAURUS SOLAR ECLIPSE May 9/10 2013

The 2nd of three SOUTH NODAL eclipses in a row. 

 spells I-N-T-E-N-S-E!   This is NO BULL.

Solar Eclipses are Super CHARGED NEW MOONS

This annular Solar Eclipse occurs at 19+ degrees TAURUS and will display the beautiful RING OF FIRE, much sought after by eclipse seekers.

It will ONLY be visible from western  AUSTRALIA  across most of the Northern Part and passing very close to New Guinea and out over the Pacific Ocean.

No we wont’ see it here in North America or Europe or most of the world. All solar eclipse effects last about a year afterwards.

Australia was also in the shadow pathway of the November 2012 Total Solar Eclipse in Scorpio. The area where the eclipse shadow passes is highlighted.

ASTRO-CARTOGRAPHY MAP OF THE WORLD

where the planetary lines criss cross is where the effects of these planets will be felt the most. Ottawa Canada is one of the prime areas in the world. Moon Sun and Neptune cross here indicating the people and the government will  be at cross purposes especially over false illusions, debt, oil. I believe the PM Harper will be outed.

Cambodia is a highlighted prosperous area for mining and expansion as well as Myanmar. Vietnam are also highlighted for old wounds that need to be healed.

Dangerous areas are Iran, because  URANUS and PLUTO revolutionary atomic energy, religious fanatics, power hungry Plutocrats cross here. Danger from Tsumami’s north of New guinea and in the Pacific Ocean due west of San Francisco.

Area in Northern Russia receives a lot of  focus as well as called Arkhangelsk, sounds like Archangels. Maybe a prominent shipping port or source of unusual magnetic energy? and  Madagascar.

What does this mean?

How does this eclipse affect you? Where is Taurus in your chart? Everyone’s got the sign of the Bull somewhere. Usually the natural 2nd house of money values romance. This is where the big light is blocked out to allow significant DNA, magnetic shifts in your consciousness in.

TAURUS, the first earth  FIXED sign, is the body and the earth itself.

From ancient times Bulls were worshipped because their horns re-created the pattern of the Moon, waxing and  waning between their horns. Taurus is Feminine, the goddess. It is sensual, practical, resourceful. It can be too stubborn and inflexible. Taurus, ruled by VENUS,  governs, resources, land, money, all physical things. The New York stock exchange was founded under the sign of the Taurus Constellation. ie. The BULL market. Taurus rules the arts, creature comforts, money, luxury, jewellery, smelling the roses, its romantic, sensual. Gets the job done. Can be lazy.

AUSTRALIA

Why is Australia in the shadow of the Solar Eclipse path? What is the meaning of this?

Australia is the oldest land on the Earth. Literally four and half billion years old. The most ancient Zircon’s which have preserved the first days of earth’s creation come from Western Australia. This discovery changed the way Geologists viewed the earth. The aborigines of Australia are the most ancient record keepers in the world, claiming that their history goes back in their memories 60,000 years. The symbol of Australia’s ancient wisdom and sacred red rocks is of honouring the earth HERSELF. Those who are aware can tune in and read these ancestral records.

On May 10 “at 6:31am on May 10, 2013, those gathering in the area will see the sun will emerge into view from beyond the east-northeast horizon. It will first resemble a pair of lobster claws and then when in full view, a horseshoe with upturned pointed tips. Finally with the dark disk of the Moon appearing to move down as opposed to the Sun moving up and off-centered “ring of fire” materializes, sitting just above the horizon. This wonderfully weird effect lasts 109 seconds, ending when the ring appears to “break” at the Sun’s lower limb. Within minutes the Sun again resembles a horseshoe, but now the pointed tips are directed downward.” – Guy Ottewell

Thanks to Carol Ann Ciocco at Galactic Free Press for some inspirational ideas I have included.

The eclipse will pass Papua New Guinea where it is 2013 and they are “BURNING witches!” Then over the Solomon Islands where Gay rights are severely prohibited and punishable.

The Eclipses’ shadow is highlighting how the Divine Feminine energies are being dishonoured.

All of these repressive Feminine and human rights energies are ANTI FEMININE, ANTI-GODDESS Anti-VENUS.  Nature, the earth, the stars and the Feminine were worshipped since the beginning of human awareness on this planet 60,000 years ago up until around 5-7,000 years ago.  So it was only in the last say 1/8 th of this cycle that the Patriarchy separated out from honoring the earth, the Great Mother and split off the mind from the heart, scorned and denied women, separated sex from nature and the true obvious cellular knowing that we are all born of woman, are all one with nature, all life forms and the earth is our mother.

VENUS the planet of LOVE, has recently re-appeared from her Underworld journey on MAY 6 appearing as the beautiful EVENING STAR. She is at ZERO degrees GEMINI on MAy 9/10 indicating  brand new communications, ideas and thinking about love, values, beauty and resources.  Venus in Gemini indicates seeing beyond apparent duality, unifying the opposites.

PLANETARY ASPECTS

click on chart to show larger

The Eclipse has asteroid Athena exactly conjunct the Sun and the Moon. The Greek city of Athens is dedicated to the Goddess of wisdom. Yes Greece will be highlighted for the next 6 months to a year because of this.

The Eclipse has Mars and Mercury in Taurus surrounding and conjunct the South Node. Indicating that taking our time to thoroughly use mind and body together, helps us release the past.

The Sun Moon Athena Mercury Mars South Node are also bunched up with dwarf planet Sedna who functions as a Goddess orbiting far beyond Pluto who opens a spiritual gateway to Higher dimensional realities. Sedna is an Inuit, Sea Goddess. Her resurrection into archetypal world consciousness indicates she and we are ready to work in her polar oceanic feeling world. We must take care of the world’s oceans as we all came from the ocean originally.  Asteroid Goddess JUNO squares the SUN and Moon at 15 degrees Aquarius, the very powerful mid-degrees. Juno represents specifically Female wisdom; in AQUARIUS- this is the need to revolutionize women’s subordinate role for the past 2,000 years. FREEDOM, inclusion, leadership, co-operation, respecting people, are all Aquarian hallmarks.

The energy is building to the next Uranus Pluto square on May 20- the old order of things and the new revolution are going head to head, even stronger now. The forces of evolution cannot be stopped.

6th sense awakening,comets, cosmic messengers, pope less astrology

Meteorites and comets, there will be a huge bright comet in the fall of 2013.

All of these outer space rocks are symbolic harbingers and prophets that were mentioned by the Hopi.

Comets always coincided with major changes in POWER and we are POPE LESS right now.

Bright naked eye comet Bright Comet Pan-Starrs (C/2011 L4) visible in Australia now

March 4, 2013 – SPACE – Bright Comet Pan-Starrs (C/2011 L4) is now inside the orbit of Mercury, brightening as it plunges toward the sun. Observers in the southern hemisphere report say they can see Pan-STARRS with the unaided eye in the evening sunset sky. Carl Gruber photographed the comet on March 2nd over the city lights of Melbourne, Australia: “Despite bad light and smog pollution, the comet’s nucleus was clearly visible to the naked eye as well as a small part of the tail,” says Gruber. Light curves show the comet is approaching 2nd magnitude, about as bright as the stars of the Big Dipper. Several important dates are approaching. On March 5th, Comet Pan-STARRS makes its closest approach to Earth (1.09 AU), followed on March 10th by its closest approach to the sun (0.3 AU). As Comet Pan-STARRS passes the sun, solar glare will make it difficult to see even as the nucleus vaporizes and brightens. By March 12th and 13th, the comet will reappear in the sunset skies of the northern hemisphere not far from the crescent Moon. –Space Weather

The comet will cross into Northern Latitudes around March 12 and will be visible early in the am.

Walking my dog last night in Toronto, I saw Jupiter directly in line with Aldebraran Michael’s Fixed Star, the bull’s eye. Jupiter is in Sidereal Taurus but Tropical Gemini. That’s what I miss the most about not living in Arizona or even being up in Northern Ontario, seeing the Milky Way overhead, clothing the black night sky with a cloak of diamonds.

Something is definitely up, the universe is in a synchonous reverberation with us, throwing pebbles at us to get our attention.

With this very rare 6 planets PISCES alignment, the COSMIC MESSAGE is to USE your 6th sense

TELEPATHY ! HUNCHES! INTUITION! DREAMS !

Communing in ONENESS, healing, compassion, forgiveness, knowing that we are intrinsically interconnected to the Universe.

We are made up of star dust, the iron in our blood came from deep space explosions, We are the stars.

All the PISCES energy is a cosmic baptism. Aren’t you feeling WOOZY?

I felt tipsy today, I know that ‘s the magnetic energy of the earth shifting, and higher frequency energies tuning in. I felt the angels, the presence of the TALL BEINGS OF LIGHT as Stuart Wilde calls them. They’re about 10 feet tall,have long white wings,and speak telepathically, they are very peaceful, solemn and bring a feeling of grace.

WHERE are those 6 cosmic tuning forks aligning in your natal chart? IN what house and making what kind of aspects?

A client of mine had 4 planets in Virgo in the 11th house. She was asking about relationships. The Pisces overflow energies were directly opposite her SUN MOON VENUS MERCURY in the 5th house traditionally known for LOVE AFFAIRS, children, creative self- expression, will , giving love, leadership. A LEO patina overlays every 5th house irregardless of what sign is on the cusp or inside of it.

WHERE are those 6 cosmic tuning forks aligning in your natal chart? IN what house and making what kind of aspects?

How are 6 Pisces planets exploding your 6th sense? Your personal communion with SOURCE

ARE YOU FREAKED OUT?

This is my work and my Bliss, I was born with my NORTH NODE In PISCES in my 4th house. It is my roots and foundation I am totally at home with this PSYCHIC energy.
