☆♥*♥☆ Winter Solstice~Yule~Lunar Eclipse ☆♥*♥☆

by Lorraine Valente

Dear MoonGazers,

There's so much frustrated energy building in the cosmos. On December 5th we experienced a New Moon at 13+ degrees Sagittarius. On the same day, Uranus turned direct, causing a bit of a stir. For those born around December 12, 13, 14, that New Moon degree would have been triggered.

December 21 is the Winter Solstice and by mid afternoon, here on the East Coast, a Full Moon Total Lunar Eclipse marks the Sun's entrance into Capricorn. Capricorn's cardinal energy is dynamic. It signifies action, initiative, activity and leadership ability. Cardinal folks are the ones who create new projects, start new businesses, experience many physical moves, and always initiating something. This coming Tuesday, December 21st, the Full Moon Total Lunar Eclipse takes place at the last degree of Gemini, 29+ degrees conjunct Hades, also at 29+ Gemini.  The 29th degree is considered an "ending" of sorts. Individuals with ending degrees, the 29th degree, tend to hold onto things signified by the 29th degree planet. Individuals born between June 20-23, as well as individuals with these degrees (28, 29, 00, 01) in their chart will feel the effects of this Eclipse's energy most, particularly as it triggers the Aries point~00 Aries, by square. 

Mercury is transiting retrograde at 26+ degrees Sagittarius, conjunct the Galactic Center, moving backwards, away from the Sun opposite Moon/Hades.  The Hades glyph is that of the Crescent Moon with the Cross of Matter.

Hades Keywords: Breakthroughs, Breakdown, Re-birthing, Spiritual, Mental, or Emotional aha's, Mutilation, Dust, Soil, Dirt, Filth, Underground, Depth, Delving, Toxicity and Poisons, Root Cause, Chronic, deteriorating Diseases, Meditation, Trauma, Scientists, Archeologists, Psychotherapists, Healers, and Undertakers.  "Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust".

The December 21 Full Moon Eclipse will be the first Total Lunar Eclipse in nearly 3 years, the last being on February 20, 2008. The length of the Eclipse is 72 minutes, every minute, correlates to a year.  The December 21 Eclipse is part of Saros Cycle, 13 North, which includes the January 4, 2011 Solar Eclipse 14 Capricorn, according to Bernadette Brady's Eagle and the Lark. A Lunar Eclipse affects us on a deep, emotional level, generally over the upcoming 6 -9 months. Pay attention to themes, people, and events that may enter your life a few weeks prior and during this time.  Remember to look back just about 19 years ago for similar themes.  What were they and how do those past events and themes relate to what's happening in your life now?

Five months earlier, on the 21st of July, Saturn re-entered Venus-ruled Libra and hovers there until October, 2012. Saturn rules structure, karma, teaching, and one's career (to name a few) and positioned in Libra, focuses energy in the area of relationships. Saturn-ruled Capricorn has much to reconsider, especially during retrograde Mercury. Many relationships are being tested, restructured or have end while others will start anew. The January 4th Solar Eclipse, is Saturn-ruled.

During this holiday season, be mindful of your own and others actions. Dramatic events have been and will continue to appear in the news. We're undergoing a tremendous amount of change deep within the collective psyche as well as deep within the Earth. Visualize, in your mind's eye, what most brings happiness to your life. Hold a picture of our beautiful oceans filled with glorious sea life, dolphins smiling and playfully gliding along in their pods. Focus a small portion of your thoughts to healing our Planet. Mother Nature feels distress. She needs to feel some positive healing energy and support because she's been grossly neglected. Practice patience, tolerance, forgiveness, gratitude, and acceptance during your days. Take your vitamins, exercise, smile, kiss your children, lover, cat and/or dog, look within, and enjoy plenty of rest.

~ Merry Christmas ~ Let there be Peace on Earth ~
