On June 26th there will be a lunar eclipse visible over the western half of the united states. It will occur around 430 am on the west coast of the United States. All eclipses are traditionally viewed with caution. The idea is that they are eclipsing the natural light of the universe, and thus meant to be handled with care when they occur in the natal chart. Likewise they can portend disaster in a Mundane chart to. Mundane refers to worldly events. As an example of this, on April 25 1986 there was a total lunar eclipse that occurred. This eclipse had the rare coincidence of conjuncting the planetoid Pluto.  What happened the next day? The Cherynobl nuclear accident.

Now it just so happens that this Lunar Eclipse is also going to conjunct the planetoid Pluto. It does that while there is a tremendous amount of tension in the sky due to the opposition of Jupiter and Uranus, to Saturn, which are squared by Pluto. This is something to take note of for certain. In the Tibetan Astrological school, it is believed that eclipses fortell of the virtue in the world leaving. They are also a time when whatever acts of virtue one does engage in can have tremendous benefit. Thus… an eclipse is an important time of prayer. Now astrologically speaking, I would say this eclipse is exceptionally important. So please…take some time Friday night, to pray, do rituals for the benefit of other beings, or at least find peace for yourself. Lets create enough positive energy, to negate any negative worldly circumstances that might arise out of this eclipse.

On a positive note, this eclipse is associated with the Saros Cycle no 12 south, which has the connotations of ” a long emotional worry or sickness comes to a successful and happy conclusion”  -B.Brady in her book: Predictave Astrology, the Eagle and the Lark. So perhaps it bodes well for a postive ending to the Deepwater Oil Crises in the gulf in August.

According to the Chaldean order of the days, which may be far more ancient than the Chaldean civilization,  that is just the first written recording we have of days being named in such a way, Tuesday is ruled by Mars. This means that on Tuesdays, the energy of Mars is more palpable and can be felt more directly.

Now there is a real good way of subtly refining the way you work with the lunar calendar through the signs. You add the current moon sign to the Chaldean order of the days. If we were to do that today we would get a Mars day in a Moon sign ruled by Scorpio. So what does that mean for the vibrational energy of humanity today. Well, here in America, we get General McChrystal (Mars, the Warrior), being called to task for emotional revelations (scorpio) of his personality clash to President Obama (Scorpio also rules relationships). This was the dominate news story of the day and fits perfectly with the natural energy of the day.

So experiment combining them both in your meditations and your activity. Try using this refined meaning of the energy of the day to your advantage, and know on which days to be cautious. You may find this very helpful. I will post more examples as they arise.

I have been asked by friends to comment on the Cardinal Grand Square occurring this summer. So I will weigh in over the next few days. First, today, what is it. It is a combination of planets, interacting with stressful angles in relation to the earth this summer. Which planets, the Planet Venus, Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, Uranus, and Pluto are the main players. Saturn, Venus, and Mars will square Pluto, while opposing Jupiter and Uranus. When will this happen, August 6-9th will be the peak date. Why will this happen? It is a natural cycle. It has happened before and will happen again. Astrology is the study of Cycles. The planets can tell us what happens in these cycles by looking at there signs. We have three types of signs, they are Cardinal, Mutable, and Fixed. What is remarkable about this aspect is that it is occurring in a Cardinal sign. Cardinal means new beginnings. How new…well, not that new, new beginnings are really ruled by the Jupiter Saturn conjunction cycle, and this is not one of those. This is an opposition Jupiter and Saturn, so it is actually the fruition of a cycle that was indicated 14 years ago when Jupiter and Saturn conjuncted. The Jupiter and Saturn cycle conjuncts in Cardinal Aries every 720 years, and that, according to traditional astrologers who have been recording the cycles of humanity and the stars for over 5000 years, is when new epochs for humanity begin. So…please do not worry too much, we are not about to be invaded by aliens….

What is about to happen, we will start to explore that in tomorrows post.
