FULL MOON REMINDER… Monday, June 4th, 7:12 am EDST

June 2, 2012 – 4:44 pm

FULL MOON REMINDER… Monday, June 4th, 7:12 am – EDST, is the FULL MOON exact day and time in JUNE! Don’t miss this chance to view your life objectively. During the three days around the Full Moon, you can see where you need to make changes in an important relationship. Once aware of your interaction, how can you best adjust your approach so that you can reach your life goals? It’s time for reevaluation.

Because this FULL MOON combines with a LUNAR ECLIPSE, there’s confusion in the atmosphere—a feeling of uncertainty about how the future is unfolding. Therefore this Full Moon is even more potent than usual and you will feel pulled to live your life with a greater sense of spontaneity and adventure.

There is an opportunity for insight and progress inherent in the Full Moon. People often react emotionally during the days of the Full Moon due to a feeling of helplessness. They become aware of the distance between the way they want their life to be, and the way it currently is. Often, when they see this gap, they become upset.

The reflection from your environment shows you ‘what is’ – and this may be in stark contrast to the way you would like things to be. The empowerment is that once aware, you have the chance to change things successfully.

Because this FULL MOON occurs in the sign of SAGITTARIUS, the emotional energy stirred in the atmosphere is spontaneous and a bit careless. There is a pressing urge for adventure and prompting to expand your horizons through a leap of faith.

You will be very aware of the limitations in your life that bind you through decisions based on logic. You may feel a brash urge for freedom in your relationships. Those you are interacting with may be perceiving situations in a way that leads them to think they are not getting their way, leading to over-dramatic outbursts of willfulness. As is often the case with the days of the Full Moon, people get upset.

This is a powerful time (6/3-6/6) for reevaluating the new beginnings you made during the New Moon earlier this month. Re-read your wish list and notice how where you are now is either closer to – or further away from – the dreams in your heart that you would like to manifest in your life.

Given that this Full Moon is in the sign of SAGITTARIUS – and you are more aware than usual of your own needs for freedom – what adjustments can you make in handling important relationships so that they become more supportive of you pursuing your dreams?

The Full Moon in SAGITTARIUS opposes the Sun in GEMINI, so it is likely that the arena of miscommunication will spark upsets. It may be that what you said wasn’t accurately understood by the other person, or visa versa. Your best bet is to slow things down, listen to the other person’s point of view, and give time for mental rapport to be established.

Times during this Full Moon when the emotional intensity will be at its strongest:

Sunday, 6/3 – all day and night, especially volatile 5:29 am – 8:32 am
Monday, 6/4 – all day and night
Tuesday, 6/5 – all day and night, especially volatile 1:08 am – 8:31 am
Wednesday, 6/6 – energy starts to calm

These times are in Eastern Daylight Savings Time (EDST) and need to be converted to your local time zone. Keep in mind that if you are not observing Daylight Savings Time, subtract one hour, and then convert to your time zone. The Moon Box on the Homepage of this site (upper right corner) will tell you how many hours difference your location is from the Eastern Time Zone in the US.

THIS LUNAR ECLIPSE… JUNE 4, 2012 (14° SAGITTARIUS)

June 1, 2012 – 2:34 am

This Lunar Eclipse brings in a fast-moving pace necessitating quick shifts in your emotional body in order to use the opportunities presented. Benefit will come when you choose the path of trusting your intuitive knowing of what is going on.

Your main challenge at this time will be to step beyond beliefs and prejudices that are limited and narrow-minded. Such beliefs close you off from experiencing the fullness of life and the joy of the adventure of exploring new horizons. Information will be coming in to expand your view and your consciousness.

You may feel drawn to visit foreign countries at this time- it is your urge to explore new cultures and eliminate isolation by feeling more connected with others. The isolation that comes from social snobbery can be outgrown by consciously becoming curious about other societies, political systems and cultures. As you discover the common thread behind all beliefs and religions you find mental calm. You are seeking a common thread in the beliefs of others so that you can find peace.

THE ASTROLOGICAL EDGE… June 2012

June 1, 2012 – 2:21 am

With four planets traveling through Gemini, this is definitely going to be a lighthearted month! The only drawback may be a tendency to rely too heavily on logic when making plans for expansion. Be sure to verify with your intuition that you’re on the right track.

The square between Uranus in Aries and Pluto in Capricorn tightens this month, becoming exact on the 24th. Consequently, the energy of discontent and rebellion continues to brew, contributing to the conviction that individuals are stronger than the establishments to which they belong.

On a political level, this naturally means more uprisings. Things will likely not begin to calm down again until late July. On a personal level, a strong part of you may want to go in a new direction, while, simultaneously, an awareness of the stability that the status quo provides can conflict with the fear of a possible loss of control and safety that can result from breaking with the current power structures. That being said, the desire for freedom and individuality may still grow so strong that you might be willing to take a chance on expressing yourself. Rash actions will not necessarily put you in the best position, though. Instead, take small, decisive steps for now, since you may not yet be clear about your goals.

The feelings of confusion that has permeated the atmosphere since late May will continue until mid-June, a side effect of the planet Neptune going into retrograde motion on the 4th. Don’t be tough on yourself. Just embrace the confusion for now, and don’t expect to know where you are going or to get all the details straight.

A Lunar Eclipse that occurs on the 4th at 14 degrees Sagittarius introduces some new emotional lessons for all of us to learn. Over the next six months, we will be learning the value of living in the moment and seeing the opportunities that each day presents. Be willing to live life with more spontaneity and a sense of adventure.

The Sun in Gemini conjoins several personal planets this month, boosting the desire to socialize, gain new information, and be even more interested in the news than usual. With the Sun still in range of a conjunction with Venus as the month begins, relationship questions will continue to surface. Because Venus is retrograde, this period will reveal past patterns and spotlight relationships that have been getting in your way or are no longer to your advantage. You may discern patterns of interacting with others that are self-defeating and that stand in the way of achieving the results you are after.

THE ASTROLOGICAL EDGE gives insights into the current “windows of opportunity” available for successfully navigating your life and is one of the regular monthly features that is part of membership on this site.

Every month on the day of the NEW MOON, the energy in the atmosphere opens to receive new seeds. For centuries, farmers have used New Moon cycles for planting crops. We can use this same potent energy for planting our dreams and goals. To use a New Moon POWER DAY, simply write down a maximum of 10 wishes you would like to see manifest in your life. Because this month’s New Moon is the second New Moon of the year to occur in the sign of GEMINI, you may really want to empower the Gemini qualities within you by including one or more wishes from the following categories on your wish list that are especially related to Gemini: brothers and sisters, information, writing, learning and teaching, communication, transportation, the stimulation of temporary connections with a variety of people, curiosity.

Sample wishes:
“I want to easily find myself taking day trips to explore new places at least ______times each year”
“I want all nervous anxiety totally lifted from me”
“I want to find myself navigating the Internet with ease”
“I want to easily find myself enrolling and taking a class in ______”
“I want healthy curiosity to prompt me to get the information I need to resolve the issue of _______”
“I want to easily find myself communicating with _______in ways that restore the love in our relationship.”

ON THE PATH POEM… ON THE PATH by Jan Spiller

May 21, 2012 – 1:30 pm

During the last week of May and the first three weeks of June, the SUN is traveling through the sign of GEMINI. Gemini rules the conscious mind and stimulates that part of us that is restless, ever seeking new information and hoping that somehow will lead to making the right decisions.

It is an endless journey… the search for an answer to avoid future pain. To gain inner peace, each of us must go beyond being victimized by the relentless activity of the conscious mind.

GO BEYOND THE MIND

The mind wants to be first in control
It wants to tell us what to see and where to go
Wants to pinpoint wrong and right, it’s only real when we’re uptight
The mind wants to be first in control.

It’s not easy to go beyond the mind
Not easy to go beyond a sense of space and time
A space without constriction – a place without restriction
To be free, you have to be beyond the mind.

The mind says that life is found outside
Makes us think we need it for our guide
It tells us we are separate so that we’ll use it, to protect
That’s why the mind says that Life is found outside.

The mind wants to bind us to this earth
So it argues things have death and they have birth
It hangs us up in logic – games of myth and magic
‘Cause the mind wants to bind us to this earth.

It’s not easy to go beyond the mind
Not easy to go beyond a sense of space and time . . . . .

These poems were originally song lyrics that gave me the practical advice I needed for successfully traveling on the spiritual path. I did what the songs said and they – in combination with the objective knowledge of astrology and the help of Enlightened Teachers – have made me free. I offer this poetry in the spirit of wanting to pass on the gift of these messages to you.

MOON WOBBLE – May 26, 2012 (felt between 5/19- 6/2)

May 21, 2012 – 1:15 pm

Moon Wobbles stir emotional energy in the atmosphere. Because this Moon Wobble occurs in the sign of GEMINI and is conjoining the South Node, habitual self-defeating habits will emerge. This is an excellent opportunity to notice how a tendency to ‘over-think’ things actually prevents you from getting what you want.

As a matter of fact, during these days your mind is likely to be a bit ‘out of control’ in the sense of being in its own overdrive! All the upset thinking provoked by this Moon Wobble is a force in its own right! It’s not even seeking a ‘solution’ – your mind will have a tendency to be so focused on the various pieces of information coming in that even when your intuition provides the right answer, you are likely to second guess it and go back into the mental upset.

Your best bet is to not resist the inevitable. Allow your mind to work overtime without taking thethoughts its producing too personally. During these days, don’t even try to . . . . .

*** Notes on Moon Wobbles ***

Although everyone will be feeling more emotional during a Moon Wobble cycle, some people are more sensitive to – and affected by – the motion of the Moon. If you are “Lunar Attuned” – just keep in mind that although your emotions are stirred up, its not a life or death situation. It is part of the predictable emotional flow of life and this too shall pass.
