The Mid-Term Election was indeed a Tsunami, a watershed moment for out nation. The new Moon in Scorpio had no planets activating earth signs and houses, no anchoring, no grounding. All the planets are in forward motion, uncommon but not unheard of, all moving a like a freight train down a steep grade. The question is what is coming the other direction and from around the bend?
Joining the 28 Scorpio new Moon and Sun, Jupiter leading the Scorpio train 29 Scorpio exponentially increases the energy building shoveling coal at light speed into that fire box. An impulsive, unstable Venus is at 4 Sagittarius adding roller coaster twists and turns as it shares the house with the train wreck in progress. Then follows Mars at 19 Scorpio, and Mercury at 9 Scorpio, all crammed cozy, and intercepted in the 6th House. As we've seen in the recent days, Iraq is awash in it's own blood, more of our own precious treasures lives are poured out for naught, this is what George's war has accomplished. Which who knows, may have been his real racist religious goal.
All that energy intercepted and boxed in, roiling in place. Add a square from Saturn to that rolling wreck. Obstacles, efforts thwarted, the way blocked, restrictions, limitations, reality. 20,000 more Americans thrown into a no win situation. The last days of Baghdad will be as were the last days of Saigon, and Iraq will pick itself backup just as Vietnam did, once we were gone.
The Scorpio splash covers the US 11th and 12th Houses as we look at the new Moon and the US chart. Saturn sits upon the 9th House cusp rather Supreme Court’ish, you are not God, you are not King, you too must obey the Laws, universal and otherwise, they apply whether your reality says they do not.
The new Moon and Sun and Jupiter are in the 12th House. A plot, plans, backroom deals, there is so much hidden from our view. Mars, Mercury are in the 11th House, Senate and House activity. The Dem's have the energy and communication vehicle at their fingertips, the drive to make changes. Hah one could say they have a mandate for change.
The Chart Ascendant 7 Gemini activates the US Uranus in the 6th House. The US mouth piece Tony Snow says one thing, and pictures tell us something else. The US may deal falsely, two faced, deception and duplicity. The new Moon squares the US Moon making us feel responsibility for the actions of our government, we the people have allowed to continue.
This energy is in motion, in some circles it will resonate from Lunar Samhain 2006 to Lunar Samhain 2007, the Celtic or Witches New Year. Lunar Samhain, one of the sacred periods when the veil between physical and spiritual worlds is most transparent, is the ruling time of the Crone aspect of the Dark Goddess, her face as Hecate, Cerridwyn, and Cailleach to name just a few. Traditionally the Dark Goddess communicates Her truth most powerfully at the Dark of the Moon. Heed Her words and revelations; these are the things to come.
In the darkness preceding the new Moon, hidden from prying eyes the Scorpio train has left the station destination unknown.
