Cosmic Weather Forecast

This is the moment each month when an alchemical transformation occurs in the Solar System which benefits all Earthly life-forms. The masculine, yang energy of the Sun is transmuted by the feminine, yin energy of the Moon, and the energy that streams forth on the night of the Full Moon partakes of the energy signatures of both Solar Wisdom and Lunar Love.

An extremely rare Full Moon Total Lunar Selenelion Eclipse marks this as a time of dying dreams and simultaneously as a time when new visions for humanity's future are incubating within the collective consciousness of humanity.

This Full Moon our spiritual community, both incarnate and discarnate, bolsters our self-assurance in a time of troubles, when it appears that we can no longer depend upon existing social structures to provide for our financial well-being, our personal security, our health and the health of our communities.

The call of this Leo Full Moon is to connect with the spiritual Lion within, to open the heart to the demands of the suffering billions around the world. My Guides suggested that all Lightworkers who are able and motivated to do so join in a Full Moon Meditation focused upon loving kindness and the establishment of right human relations. Details in the article! Join us in this Full Moon Meditation!

Today is the Festival of Humanity, celebrated during the Full Moon in Sagittarius. The Sabian symbol for this degree of Sagittarius is this: "Cupid knocks at the door of a human heart." This is a Full Moon for lovers!

We as a culture have consigned the ancient wisdom teachings to a museum of the mind as if they were an ancient sword, an obsolete weapon. Now is the time to seize the ancient sword in our own hands, using it to disperse the demons of fear, anger, doubt and uncertainty that beset us.

Our Celestial Weather Report for August includes an amazing array of astrological interactions among the large, outer planets, signifying changes taking place at the most profound levels of the collective consciousness, with major shifts in social relations sure to follow in many areas of life. Political and economic fault-lines are being triggered and major upheavals are likely during the next year.

Western Astrologers celebrate the start of a New Year today. For those of us who would like a fresh start in our lives, the Equinox offers us an opportunity to connect with the Universal Life Force which is now moving powerfully within the plant kingdom and which is now beginning to manifest throughout all the elements of Nature, accessible to us through water, earth, fire and water.

This week we celebrate the annual victory of the Sun during springtime festivities, and this supports our efforts to prepare ourselves for a new cycle of spiritual growth. In fact taking some quiet time to restore ourselves by working on our own spiritual practice, whatever that may be, is the perfect antidote to the inflammatory, hyper-emotional energy stream that has dominated this year and last.

This Full Moon is conjunct dark Pluto and the Galactic Center. Pluto in Sagittarius supports the transformation of our culture’s most basic belief structures. When Pluto is conjunct the moon, which is the seat of our personal subconscious beliefs, and also the Galactic Center, the time is ripe for a total shift in consciousness, a transformation of personal and cultural values on the broadest possible scale.

"Each one of us has only one person to change and that person is at hand twenty-four hours a day, at our command. What beauty in God's mathematics! It comes to billions. If everyone evolves to a higher consciousness- or even most of us- the world will change."

Today is Candlemas, the Feast of Imbolc, the Celebration of the Solar Festival of Aquarius and the Full Moon is in Leo. With Saturn retrograde and opposing Neptune, we need extra patience, strength and tranquility.
