Moon-light
In this section, I spend more time diving into the cosmic tonality of this RARE moon and what it might manifest on your way across the next two to four weeks.
A potentially morally shocking and insensitive title but one that broke through the silence of my meditation and screamed for attention as I was preparing this newsletter and blog.
One I would never ever want using as a political or moral statement, but simply as a spiritual reminder.
I am made of the same matter, energy, spirit and as such I carry the same evil potential. What makes the difference between this man and me is how I decide to harness my energy. Even though I cannot deny that my unconscious, individual or collective, holds an incredibly strong grip on how this comes across.
Putin’s chart is as a matter of fact extremely strong in Piscean energies, almost inviting projections. The new moon in Pisces points to all these concepts, summons us to dive deeper into their reality in our lives and implications on our present and future.
Events seldom happen by accident. Astrology teaches us that there is indeed a greater design behind the apparent chaos of life. One only has to watch the incredibly sophisticated and perfect geometry that lay hidden to our immediate eye in all living things to realize the underlying order and perfection of all things in our universe.
The Virgo-Pisces polarity in the Zodiac captures this concept of Order (Virgo) and Chaos (Pisces).
Try and identify a Virgo around you and the words that might immediately hit your mind will surely be, super clean, discrete, (self) critical, helpful, health freak, perfectionist, maniac, pragmatic, knowledgeable, ultimate fixer… now do the same with a Pisces and easy, free flowing, hypersensitive, struggling with boundaries, addictive, dreamy, clever, self-effacing, compassionate a few of the many that pop up.
Virgo is ruled by Mercury and point to the analytical mind that labels and organizes, discriminates and prioritizes, the closest thing to the I in our conscious mind. The Virgo function is to help us integrate all the different parts of our personality into a functional entity able to serve (and work) within the collective.
One of the main functions of Virgo in our life is to draw practical lines so that we can survive and adjust the mix of activities of our days to both the outer environment and our inner needs.
Virgo has a tendency to focus on the material but must integrate all the other fields of human reality to ensure a healthy and sustainable integration: emotional, mental, spiritual…Virgo seeks to maintain our body nature into our field of reality. The Virgo function is almost a purely conscious activity even if a lot of the decisions we make once are then stored in a deeper part of our brain and become habits with repetition.
Pisces on the other side is more attuned to the mysteries of life, what stands beyond our conscious reality, the dreams, the unconscious, what cannot be expressed with words but still felt, intuited, or imagined. Pisces dissolves the lines drawn by Virgo in between things, topics or people and merges them in a greater whole where they can reorganize more meaningfully (and probably be analyzed further) in between themselves during our sleep. Pisces is closer to the concept of soul or Atman, our immortal Self, travelling from body to body throughout our reincarnation. If you do not believe in the reincarnation concept, then limit it to the deep unconscious mind and functions.
Virgo looks at the individual survival and optimal operational balance. Pisces looks at the whole, our interconnectedness, our energy exchanges, our soul mission and integration within the greater cosmos, not just physical but energetic. Virgo cures, Pisces heals.
If for other new moons we are being invited to listen to some of our needs or wants, for this new moon, the invitation is to listen to ourselves in other ways.
Something is definitely emerging out of the collective unconscious. Wars always are the reflection of an unsustainable imbalance. Both at the collective and the individual.
This new moon comes with 2 other conjunctions:
Mars, Venus and Pluto.
Mars is our desire nature, what we want, what we crave for, what we are driven by, our passions and objective. Mars is our capacity to be assertive to get what we want. Our rage and anger. Mars is also our sexual drive.
Venus is our subjective decision-making device (as opposed to the rational one Mercury), what we like, what we prefer, what we value, what we feel attracted to, but also our capacity to charm and please, maintain a harmonious and peaceful relationship.
Pluto is our subconscious drive and motivations, what lays hidden to others, our power and in its darker manifestations, manipulations and crimes we commit to gain it or steal it from others. Pluto yields an unstoppable and unavoidable power, either creative or destructive. Pluto seeks to help us move beyond our undue attachments, die to a part of ourselves, our illusions, and be reborn stronger. Death is sometimes the only alternative to letting go and surrender for some.
This conjunction happens in Capricorn. It is thus pointing to the way we manage the material world and our everyday lives. Our economic and political order.
Both our cravings and values seem to be at odd with the greater cosmic design and needs.
Mars-Pluto = fight for survival / purification of our drive / new & evolved modus operandi
Venus-Pluto = relationship crisis / the power of love and money
Semisquare with the new moon:
A mass sacrifice might be required so that we realize it and adjust.
At the eve of a shocking and appalling blood bath, the best way you may currently help the collective is by reflecting on how your desires and values align with the advent of a sustainable and peaceful world.
The loss of lives in Ukraine should not make us forget that a much greater “conflict” is engaged for decades and that the latest report we received yesterday from the front line is that we are about to cross an irreversible line where hundreds of millions may have to perish and billions to suffer.
The defense of stories of the past just like Putin’s is purely delusional.
Migrants will soon come to blur and overcome all those old, privileged lines, rewrite those one-sided stories if we are not acting now and helping them maintain our precious ecosystem all around the planet. Discriminating is not going to help us, prioritizing our bellybuttons neither, only divide us and accelerate the death toll. We need to prepare ourselves for this change, and not by drawing higher and thicker lines.
Even if this trend is now unavoidable, we are still talking about 2044 onwards. We still have time to make a difference and astrology is clear, we, the people, will make that difference over the next 20 years.
Now is the right time to take a minute to pause and see what emerges when you ask yourself those questions, not in the collective but in your personal life:
What trauma are you remaining attached to and might unconsciously drive your actions and affect your relationships?
What are you refusing to take emotional ownership of and projecting onto others?
How are you manipulating others, friends, lovers or colleagues, into getting what you want or like? Leaking your true creative power and potential.
Which values and behaviors are now outdated and long due a revamp?
Where are your fears and insecurities holding you into toxic patterns?
What are you being the witness of and remaining passive to or escaping/numbing?
Where are you drawing unstainable lines?
What are your priorities? How do they tally up with your dreams of peace in the long terms?
When have you last made a sacrifice to help the less privileged ones?
How long will you carry on looking up?
Look into Putin and write down what is irritating you.
To what length and extreme have you gone to be noticed?
Where have your personal ego drives taken you into excesses?
Where are you potentially deforming reality?
Where are you not showing the necessary compassion?
At the dawn of important political elections, those are incredibly important questions to reflect on.
Mercury is also conjunct Saturn in Aquarius.
There are many interpretations and expressions to this aspect.
The fear of talking and taking side, the need to better understand the topic and the reality before speaking, the overwhelming pessimism, the limits and constraints of bureaucracy and red tape, the limits of politics and diplomacy, lost in translation (sic),
But Saturn is in Aquarius, its more positive and optimistic expression so the invitation is to realize the power of positive thinking, ideals like freedom, justice and equality, as well as solidarity and fraternity. This aspect speaks to what will follow, the power of the common people over outdated structures, the next 20 years.
Whatever your situation, the universe is granting us the critical thinking brain, sound judgment and concentration necessary to attend to serious and challenging mental work, regulatory work, tedious duties as well as longer term plans. Try and ensure that over this period you have a constructive outlet for this energy if you want to avoid the negative impacts of pessimism and self-criticism.
To land on an incredibly positive note, this new moon is conjunct Jupiter. Whatever happens in your life or on this planet right now and for the coming weeks will contribute to our growth and the construction of a better future together. Once again it may not immediately look like it and comes with dire sacrifices but there is indeed order into the seemingly chaotic times we are living.
The main aspect of 2022, the Jupiter-Neptune conjunction started a couple of days ago and will grow in intensity up to April 12. Things we could never imagine a few weeks ago will take place and have already started to. Prepare to be dazzled.
March 6 and 12 will be key dates, rich in duality.
Believe in the power of your prayers when addressed with a vibrant, grateful and enthusiastic heart.
Believe in better tomorrows.
Believe in peace and unity on earth.
Believe.
Be
Live
In Compassion,
G & J
