Dec 21, Tuesday. Winter Solstice is exact at 3:39 pm when the Sun moves into Zero Capricorn. Witnessing a Solstice Sunrise is a way to engage the powerful energies being beamed in from the Galactic Center via the Sun. (Sunrise is 7:25 am in Tucson, Arizona so time will vary depending on where you are located.) This year we have the extra special situation of the Full Moon setting on the Galactic Cross located at the Galactic Edge at 7:39 am (in Tucson, Arizona) within minutes after the Sunrise. Witnessing these celestial events inspire awe and open our hearts, bodies and minds in ways that can assist us in aligning with the Celestial Magic of the Sun on the cross and how it is supporting the fulfillment of the ‘original intent' for our lives.

The original intent is not defined by middle world standards but rather by the part of our self that knows – an inherent knowing or intelligence that may simply be to embody love and compassion and/or kindness and caring and/or to be an anchor for the accelerating light codes of energy that are beaming our way at this time. It may be subtle. It may reorient your whole perception of reality. It may expand your Earthly and Galactic Consciousness and accelerate whatever awakening is already happening for you. It may feel like nothing you have ever felt before. This is about being open and receptive to the incoming heightened light energy .

One way to engage a living ceremony around these events is to simply witness them with intention. Said another way the visible and non-visible connection with these celestial alignments through our intention and heartfelt gratitude and appreciation is a ceremony in itself. When we have a sacred intent and then find ways to energize that intent in the world of form we are in the realm of Living Ceremony. Calling in sacred space, setting up an altar, drumming, chanting etc are also ways to engage this time. It isn't necessary to do anything but sometimes doing these things can help us connect more deeply. Let your heart be your guide.

…the Gift of Ceremony
Not the sterile barrenness of repeated sameness…
As a stagnant ritual,
Rather the Living Ceremony…the Ceremony of Life…
the Ceremony of NOW….
~ Galactic Shamanism the Star-Stone Ones by Mary Saint-Marie/Sheoekah


Don’t forget that just a few hours before the exact Solstice is a Full Moon (29 Gemini 21) Total Lunar Eclipse exact at 12:13 am. (See Eclipse YouTube and Article)

Then the Moon enters 0 degrees Cancer at 2:22 am located exactly on the Galactic Cross at the Galactic Edge opposite of the Sun on the Galactic Cross near the Galactic Center exact at 3:39 pm today. The Mayans referred to Galactic Center as Hunab Ku the source point, the connecting link, with all the celestial bodies in our Galaxy. With the Sun and Moon aligned on the Galactic Cross at both Solstice points this is also a powerful time to witness the Full Moon rise (6 pm) just after sunset (5:18 pm). (Again times will vary depending on your location and horizon line.)

The Full Moon occurs on December 21, just hours before Solstice, in early sidereal Gemini and on the Gate of Man of Earth's Precessional Holy Cross. The Moon near the Lunar South Node produces a Total Lunar Eclipse--visible throughout North America and western South America. The zenith lies just of the coast of southern California and Baja Mexico.

Full Moon Eclipse: Dec 21: 8:13:27 GMT
Solstice: Dec 21: 23:38:28 GMT

Juno opposes Uranus an hour and one half before the Full Moon Eclipse, adding a significant dynamic to our Full Moon eve. In addition, the Sun and the asteroid Pallas (along with Mercury, the Lunar North Node, Pluto and Mars) lie opposite the Moon and the Lunar South Node; and this axis creates a Grand Square with Juno opposite Jupiter and Uranus. The entire Solstice Grand Square Total Eclipse Full Moon, with the Moon on the Gate of Man of Earth's Precessional Cross, creates a primary activation of the precessional cross--our sacred geometry of evolutionary change. This produces a dynamic and potent passageway--a challenge for radical action to change--especially in relationships of all sorts.

The Sun-Pallas alignment marks the mid-point of vision and realization in the current Earth-Pallas synodic cycle that began on May 4, 2010. The theme of this synodic cycle was presented in the April 14, 2010 Lunar Planner. The Sun-Pallas part of this Grand Square, and the realizations we have on our Full Moon, adds a significant dynamic regarding any changes we may be making in our relationships. In its lower octave and for the less emotionally mature, it may express as spiteful and judgmental side-taking to validate any need to change. In its higher octave, and for the more emotionally mature, it provides tremendous opportunity for the application of artistic creative intelligence in support of partnerships to enter into a new octave of experience and creative co-participation. Any changes being made in partnerships may involve long-standing, even karmic, patterns of participation.

The Full Moon Eclipse nearly conjoins the same stars as our new Mercury synodic cycle (discussed above), although with more emphasis on Betelgeuse of Orion and Menkalinan of Auriga, which mark the "Gate of Man" at 5° sidereal Gemini--dynamic resourceful action amongst colleagues with the ability to strategically respond in the moment.

FULL MOON IN GEMINI 29.21 degrees
TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE
DECEMBER 21st 9.13pm NZ AUST EST 7.13pm GMT 8.13am
eclipse time NZ 9.18pm AUST EST 7.18pm GMT 8.18am

The Full Moon is a time of completion and celebration, in Gemini we have the twin aspects celebrating co-operation in unison, the individual parts remain unique but are now able to align in the polarization of Sagittarius as it shoots straight to the heart. Time to celebrate our diversity in oneness, it is a great time for a party or to be the radiant Light that you are. Gratitude for the blessings of our life and the abundance we are and share in joy and love. This full moon is always a powerful one and assists us to connect deep into the inner realms of Light and unity. On the 2008 Gemini Full Moon was the Inner Earth and Galactic Center union and the Golden Solar Discs were anchored into the Fourth Dimension on the 2007 moon. On the 2004 Gemini Full Moon we had an Inner Earth opening.
A Total Lunar Eclipse is when the Earth comes directly between the Sun and Moon, and the Moon is completely shadowed, receiving no direct light from the Sun, Lunar Eclipses are working more on the emotions, inner and hidden aspects. The eclipse will be visible throughout most of eastern Asia, Australia, the Pacific Ocean, the Americas, and Europe. The eclipse will be visible after midnight in North and South America. Since the Moon will be almost directly overhead from these locations, this should be an excellent chance to view a rare total lunar eclipse.
See website [link to eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov] for more info.
With the Lunar Eclipse you will be able to go deep not only into your own psyche and centre but work with the Councils of Light in holding the Divine Source/Light portals worldwide in oneness and unity. Creating higher dimensional zones where duality has been playing out. This is not about changing, controlling or judging but merely being the anchor you truly are and holding the higher frequencies as we move beyond the illusion.
This Total Lunar Eclipse with the Full Moon opposite the Galactic Centre and the Sun conjunct the Galactic Centre, a doorway is being created with the energies of the twins of duality merging into the one point of spirit and shooting straight for the Galactic Centre. Making this eclipse a powerful doorway of healing and unification and journeying through the Galactic Centre and experiencing the new creation. The Galactic Centre is accessed through the stillness within where all is manifest, the crossover point within and without.

I am travelling to one of my very major vortexes where I get downloaded with new light codes as well as uploading. So I know it’s going to be big and where I live I can see it happening in the heavens also, so check out the link above and click the diagram to see if you get to see it too. Regardless of the outer sight the energies are going to be intense so placing yourself on the earth at a sacred space to you would be a great idea. With this wave of light codes coming in we are at the Solstice, and the RA Light also.

THE ENERGIES IN BETWEEN ECLIPSES CAN BE VERY INTENSE
WITH THE SOLAR ECLIPSE ON JANUARY 4TH.2011
So try and do physical exercise everyday if possible to help the energies move through you and be aware of the Bigger Picture. If possible spend time at a vortex and just be with the Earth and multi-dimensional energies in a state of allowing and peace.

DECEMBER 22nd SOLSTICE, SUN INTO CAPRICORN
SUMMER SOLSTICE - SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE
SUN INTO CAPRICORN DECEMBER 22nd 12.38pm NZ AUST EST 10.38pm The Summer Solstice is when the life force and creativity of nature climax. What budded in youth has now blossomed into maturity, nature attains its peak of perfection, the transformation has been accomplished. The Solar Rays are at their peak, the Light that permeated the core of the Earth at the Winter Solstice is now radiating fully through the Earth and through all of nature. The Summer Solstice is a time when the Light has been brought back from the core of the Earth and all is illuminated, a celebration of life and the bounty, grace and abundance that is given to us from the Sun.

WINTER SOLSTICE - NORTHERN HEMISPHERE
SUN INTO CAPRICORN DECEMBER 22nd GMT 11.38am The Winter Solstice is when the Sun again turns Southward in the Northern Hemisphere, after having reached its furthermost northern declination. At the Winter Solstice the Divine Light reaches the inner most centre of the globe, there it remains for four days, impregnating the Earth with its Life. It is the birth of the Sun, and creates a new growth cycle, the Earth and all beings are made ready for a fresh beginning. It is a time when a great amount of Cosmic energy is given too us to heighten our vibrations and expand our awareness, through the new Sun. Each year the energy is increased as we awaken and attain our fulfillment. The Sun is within our heart and so our Solar Self is Divine Love. At the Summer Solstice we started our inner journey and purification, now we are completing and ready to step into the new and heightened frequencies through the Sun, Central Sun, and Greater Central Sun as all the cycles are now merging in alignment of the Suns. As we ourselves step into the Golden Cycle by being our Solar Self.

THIS SOLSTICE

This Solstice on the wave of the eclipse and full moon energy, be open to the joy of the Solar Rays illuminating from the Sun. Become aware of what you are creating as a Solar unified being. We are not looking at the Sun as male or female, as there is no duality, male and female are one. So if you still feel you have issues with your Inner Male and Female now is a golden opportunity to marry them and then take yourself on a journey into the Sun. If you still have difficulty with this then look at what is going on in your charkas, as the kundalini is able to rise through you as you become clear. This is good time to start clearing and transmuting all the blocks that may still be held in the Chakras.
On this Solstice the energies are there for you to journey within deeper to the Akashic Records and your own cellular/stellular memories. There is a great download of information that can be accessed at this time in order to assist you to unify and the Earth to transit into the higher octaves in a way that takes us through gently and with the Earth, Stars and Suns in harmony once more.

When the Sun has illuminated out of the Earth and is the Lightest day for the Southern Hemisphere. In the Northern when the Sun illuminates into the core of the Earth, either way a day of the Sun, a day of the Solar Beings and a doorway to illuminate humanity with the Solar Rays. Be open to the gifts that are illuminated from within you, be open to the Golden Solar Discs anchored again on the earth plane through the etheric, to the Sun in the core of the Earth, the Sun, Central Sun and Greater Central Sun.
Be open to any message or awareness with yourself as a member of the Council of Light through the Central Sun. Connect at sunrise, noon, sunset and midnight and the exact time.
This Solstice is a time of intensified energy to transform the fears and dross of the illusion and its solar rays will be scorching if a lot of this has not already taken place. The golden light and RA Light shines relentlessly without discriminating, it illuminates all.

I find this interesting - :mnb6:


A new Time Cycle has begun
Tue Dec 14, 2010 5:56 am (PST)


12-13-10 According to Alex, the light being who came on line this evening,
he told us, "A new time cycle has begun!" On December 21, 2010, time will
start accelerating faster and faster. You will feel it. The next two years
between December 21 2010, and December 21, 2012, the time will fly so fast,
it will seem like mere days. Beyond that, it will go even faster. Guess
what! NOTHING will happen on December 21, 2012 - NOTHING!

However, fear of the Mayan end date, will cause many to sicken and die from
depression, illnesses and even strange accidents. Those who do not take the
higher road toward higher consciousness will not even make it to December
21, 2012. No one will be to blame except their own consciousness. Even
those who are meant to see this new time period into existence will die if
they don't raise their consciousness.

Raising the consciousness is what they came here for, and if they don't do
that, they won't make it to the other side of the cycle as intended.

A tuning of the earth consciousness is coming quickly. Only those with
higher consciousness can make that tuning tune higher as intended. Be one
of them.

In months to come, we will give more details. We will talk about this in
more detail soon.

There will be disasters here and there in the next two years, but take heart
and don't let them fool you into believing that the World is ending!" It's
not. More and more movies, and television shows will raise the fear level,
but don't be one of those who believes the movies. That is just people
trying to make money on fear.

Believe me when I tell you that December 21, 2012 is already passed. The
Gregorian Calendar was created in such a way that time was altered, and
altered wrongly. It does not match the Mayan Calendar which shows the end
of the time cycle on their famous stone. That stone tells the end of a
cycle and the beginning of a new cycle, not the End of the World! Don't
believe those who have incorrectly told you that December 21, 2012 is the
date the Mayans had intended. They had their own calendar, and it was not
the Gregorian.

Take heed and live with joy! You have nothing to worry about. We will
return with more details.

The video of these statements will be on line by December 21, 2010 at

10/28/2011 -- 12/21/2012 --- 03/21/2013

TRANSFORMATION BEGINS MARCH 2011

The High Mayan Council has spoken for the first time in 500 years. Truth has been revealed: “THE END OF TIME WINDOW HAS BEEN VERIFIED AND IT BEGAN ON OCTOBER 24, 2007 – (completing anytime from now until 2015). COMET HOLMES EXPLOSION HAS BEEN VERIFIED AS THE BLUE KACHINA. (This was the final Hopi sign that indigenous cultures awaited.) TOTAL LOSS OF MAGNETOSPHERE WILL SIGNAL A MAGNETIC POLE REVERSAL WHICH WILL SIGNAL A PHYSICAL POLE SHIFT 16 TO 17 DEGREES INTO RUSSIA. IT WILL TAKE APPROX. 20HRS AND THE WORLD WILL BE IN TOTAL DARKNESS FOR 30HRS. (Apparently this does occur approximately every 5200 years). MAYA ARE PREPARING FOR THE 13 CRYSTAL SKULL CEREMONY. 13 SKULLS…(Drunvalo has confirmed this fact), 1 SKULL FOR EVERY THOUSAND YEARS SINCE THE LAST POLE SHIFT. THE 1ST SKULL WAS MADE PRE-SHIFT BY THE ATLANTEANS, 12 SKULLS HAVE SINCE BEEN MADE BY THE MAYA (POST-SHIFT ATLANTEAN PRIESTS AND PEOPLES). THE COUNCIL GOES ON TO SAY THAT TECHNOLOGY IS NOT THE SIGN OF AN ADVANCED CIVILIZATION…ITS THE SIGN OF A CIVILIZATION ABOUT TO ADVANCE. MAYA HAVE BEEN THROUGH MANY POLE SHIFTS AND ARE PREPARING FOR THE NEXT ONE WHICH THEY SAY (AND CERTAIN SCIENTISTS AGREE) COULD HAPPEN ANY MINUTE…LOOK FOR THE MISSING OF OUR MAGNETOSPHERE.”

I really liked this poem -- I thought I share it with you ...
THanks for all the updates :)

My Family
Although we dance in the dark, our song is bright lighting the path as
it mysteriously unfolds and reveals our new found experiences.
Sometimes exhilarating, sometimes frustrating and even heartbreaking,
as each moment feeds another portion of wisdom into our Souls.
You came into my life and we exchanged virtues, only to find our egos
wanting to be Kings and Queens. Little did we truly know and
understand this through all those years of trials and tribulations, but
the tide is now turning.
As our egos melt in sojourn with the Poles a new found awareness
resonates within, opening up new possibilities of harmonious
interludes with kindred souls.
A family beckons, in a time and place whose structure has never
existed before anywhere in all of creation. A family of true Love, that
never squabbles, that will never judge, persecute or condemn.
This I know, for I know my heart, and my heart tells me that this
family is in the process of becoming, for our Divine Earth Mother is
ascending.
You see, my Song is strong and my Light shines bright, enabling me to
see a little further down the path, and I see my Family there, all my
brothers and sisters in the Light, with open arms and warm hearts.
But only now do I begin to recognise my Family, and behold who do I
see?
I see You.

Aligning with the December 21 Portal of Infinite Possibility

A portal of infinite possibility opens Monday night when the earth's shadow crosses the full moon just hours before the winter solstice. It is at the point, during the full lunar eclipse, that a dimensional portal opens, offering a glimpse into the perfection and beauty of timeless eternity where all fields of potentiality exist. This opening is already energetically "reaching back" and beaconing to all who are aligned enough to receive this broadcast.

A Powerful New Guiding Star on the Horizon

The broadcast of this multidimensional portal reaches through time and space to all life everywhere. All we need to do to tune in this broadcast is to grow still and silent within ourselves and open to the guiding light of this powerful new star on our inner horizon.

Pay close attention to everything that draws your attention now as your higher self will attempt to speak to you on many levels, downloading information and ideas into your sleeping mind and in those waking moments when your mind is clear and still.

Monday night's solstice/eclipse phenomenon is no coincidence. This portal signals a greater alignment of heaven and earth with the power to trigger new levels of enlightenment.

Our Final and Most Profound Earthly Test

In recent weeks and months, many lightworkers have come face-to-face with any remaining darkness they hold. Densities that seemed to have been left behind may have resurfaced. Do not be tempted to judge yourself for this or fall prey to despair and hopelessness at this time. This is the time to stand firmly on the platform of the spiritual understandings you have gained, to call upon your higher self, your guides and angels as you stare into the face of your greatest fears, your darkest moments, and your weakest points.

Because each being is a "microcosm" of the universe, our own consciousness is our best training ground for carrying out our purpose at the universal level. As we love our own darkness, we unify dark and light within our own consciousness. This allows us to join with others to unify dark and light on planet Earth, ushering in a new time. It is in this way that we are able to transform suffering to its higher octave of universal love and understanding. Suffering is at its core a resistance to what is. When we resist what we encounter, we block its message and in doing so, we isolate ourselves from the understandings and love that can help us navigate all we encounter.

As we love and allow every aspect of our being, we are able to stare into any darkness that still obscures our hearts. We can consciously choose to love the darkness and embrace it, for our willingness to love and embrace the darkness encapsulates our final and most profound test in earthly life.

2010 Winter Solstice: December 21, 2010 / View Chart - [link to www.handclow2012.com]

When the Sun moves into Capricorn, those of us living north of the equator celebrate our entry into winter's deep contemplation, a time for us to renew our trust in Earth, spirit, and self. During winter's quiet darkness, we can review our intentions for this year and evaluate them in light of collective needs. [For readers living south of the equator, you begin to experience the start of summer, followed by your sunlight waning. This is when your intentions created during your Spring Equinox (September) intensify and deepen.]

This year's solstice period is extremely potent: The Sun moves into Capricorn about fifteen hours after an extremely close lunar eclipse in 29 Gemini, which puts the opposing Sun in 29 Sagittarius very close to the Galactic Center, where Mercury sits exactly conjunct. The close lunar eclipse just before the Solstice has an enormous impact on this year's formative solar entry into Capricorn. You may want to refresh yourself by rereading my thoughts on it at the end of my reading for the New Moon in Sagittarius.

The rising solstice Sun is very close to the Galactic Center for about fifty years, and its closest alignment occurred in 1998. [See The Mayan Code: Time Acceleration and Awakening the World Mind by Clow.] The Full Moon eclipse, with the Sun on the Galactic Center just before the solstice, is like a huge fireworks celebration to remind us that this is the final December Solstice before the end of the Mayan Calendar, October 18, 2011, according to Carl Calleman. This hot drama in the sky during the lunar eclipse through the Solstice is a Galactic Center activation that will open multi-dimensional consciousness in all of Earth's elements. This high-energy jolt will prepare many people for our entry into the Universal Underworld in March 2011. Take note that the eclipse lines up with the Galactic Center; Mercury is exact on the Galactic Center during both the eclipse and solstice; and the lunar North Node and Pluto in Capricorn are still very close to the Galactic Center.

What does all this mean? To find images for such great cosmological events, we have to factor in our entry into Day Seven of the Galactic Underworld [January 1999 through October 2011] on November 3, just before the New Moon in Scorpio on November 5. Day Seven of the Galactic is the fruition of technology that is moving our species into Oneness, so many of us working with Carl Calleman created a weekend of global celebrations. Regarding mass consciousness, the whole world is getting diplomatic secrets through WikiLeaks, which is creating global-unity consciousness. We really are beginning to move like synchronized flocks of birds and schools of fish as we cease being sheep who obediently return to the keep run by powerful and arbitrary shepherds, the Global Elite. As we free ourselves to fly in a free sky or to swim down streams of our own choosing, reality also feels like a huge entanglement that confuses our bodies, emotions, and minds. Remember, we've already experienced previous shifts into new evolutionary pathways, such as when we adjusted to living in villages after abandoning the hunter-gatherer lifestyle. Our intelligent cells know how to progress forward by taking the first hard steps, just like when we were amphibians that came up on the beaches and walked onshore.

With the lunar eclipse on the Galactic Center, our maturing neurological systems are bombarded with potent gamma rays right before the Solstice. Then, inspired by this potency, our species will be imprinted by the first sacred winter light; we will be jelling in all nine dimensions this winter. Miracles are happening now; for example, right after Day Seven began, scientists announced on November 3 the discovery of great energy bubbles extending 25,000 light years above and below the Galactic Center. These bubbles contain the energy equivalent of 100,000 supernova explosions! [Astrophysical Journal, November 2010, or search, Dennis Overbye, "Bubbles of Energy Found in Galaxy".]

As I describe it in Alchemy of Nine Dimensions, the Galactic Center is the location of the ninth dimension (9D), where intelligence emanates from the Mayan Calendar. So, this discovery of so much energy in the Galactic Center, just when Day Seven of the Galactic Underworld opened, is very exciting. Scientists do not yet know whether this is a new phenomenon or something they've just detected. But, in light of the intensity of current time acceleration, I think these bubbles are signs of remarkable light arriving that scientists can actually see. Going back to my reading for the 2010 September Equinox for a moment, recall that the equinox released great individual potential within cluttered and collapsing old systems. Many people began taking charge at the local level this fall, when they finally realized nobody was going to take care of them. Perhaps the energy bubbles in the Galactic Center are fragments of our newly emerging selves being birthed, as the old systems fall away?

Considering the eclipse and the latest scientific findings about our Galaxy, I will interpret the December Solstice chart as a guide for how we can receive and integrate very advanced levels of consciousness during this winter. I will also search for dynamics that are transforming us into something new while old structures disintegrate. Considering the advanced consciousness levels coming in now, this is not an easy reading. My Lunar Eclipse reading suggested that many people are healing their inner sexual identity complexes, which is the big step toward Oneness. Then the solstice chart offers advice on how we can grow personally during the next three months while we weave ourselves ever closer together. Simply put, the December Solstice chart is all about embodying high frequency states of an entirely new order, which can cause us to relate to each other in many dimensions.

The Sun moving into Capricorn is close to the lunar North Node and Pluto, and then it conjuncts the North Node on December 24 and Pluto on December 26. The North Node describes our karmic paths at the collective level, and so we are completing eighteen months of intense structural change. Moving backwards, the Node goes into Sagittarius in February 2011, and the karmic agenda shifts to spiritual activation and the struggle for justice. So, we only have a few more weeks of intense focus on the deep restructuring of fundamental designs at the soul level, and this process will continue to be driven at the collective level by Pluto in Capricorn through 2024.

When the North Node is in Capricorn, we mature our souls, and with these new understandings about our purpose in life, we will become warriors for justice under Sagittarius. With the solstice Sun on the North Node in Capricorn, we really feel our own soul's path amidst the great changes. Then as the Sun moves to Pluto right after Christmas, many will embrace great cultural movements, such as the struggle for political transparency. The next three months are a great time for you to evaluate your own stance amidst these great collective structural shifts. Most people will be acutely aware of these changes because Mercury retrograde is right on the Galactic Center. Don't expect to find reports of these kinds of changes in the mass media, unless you get some wisdom out of Time magazine choosing Mark Zuckerberg instead of Julian Assange as its "Person of the Year".

During this solstice, the Moon in 8 Cancer closely opposes Mars and Pluto in Capricorn. Moon in Cancer opposing Mars/Pluto is needy, so Luna struggles for emotional space; she cries for nurturance yet feels little is coming her way. This neediness will be difficult during the holidays and during the months that follow, so take care of your self and listen carefully to the concerns of others. Mars in Capricorn is the muscular goat who bashes his way to the finish line while butting everybody else off the path; meanwhile, Pluto in Capricorn continues to change everything in the deepest possible ways. With Mars/Pluto opposite the Moon, aggressiveness is intense, causing great anger and frustration. Of course, this opposition in a seasonal chart does not bode well during war, so events in Afghanistan will be cruel and unsatisfying, and the players will be more stubborn than usual. It also does not bode well for the public mood, so demonstrations for individual rights and societal chaos are likely. The New Moon in Capricorn on January 4 is a solar eclipse that occurs just after Jupiter conjuncts Uranus, so shutting down the societal restructuring is highly unlikely.

There has been much saber-rattling aimed at North Korea and Iran during the Sagittarius cycle, so possibly this intransigent opposition of Mars and the Moon presages final battles that can transform the human species. The only thing any one of us can do about these mega-struggles is to use our minds to change the world. Wars cannot continue unless the people get tricked into believing they must attack someone. WikiLeaks enabled the public to see that the Israelis and Saudis hammered both Bush and Obama to bomb Iran, yet the US resisted the pressure. So now, the American public can consider whether they'd like their country to do such dirty deeds for our Middle East allies? As we flow more as a whole group, it will be more difficult for the Elite to fool the public. Perhaps new conflict in Korea might remind the unemployed and homeless in America that more than 30,000 US troops have been stationed in South Korea for sixty years? What if the Elite plan is to have troops stationed in Iraq and Afghanistan for fifty years or more? The Moon in Cancer opposite Mars in Capricorn is insecure and threatened, so the public mood will be difficult this winter.

Uranus went direct a few hours after the New Moon in Sagittarius on December 5, and it felt like Pandora's box opened! There was a great furor over WikiLeaks, European financial instability threatened the world, demonstrations against governments filled the streets, and the political tension in the US just kept rising. During the solstice, Jupiter is close to Uranus in Pisces and moving to the third conjunction (right on the 1776 USA Moon in 27 Aquarius) just three hours after the Capricorn New Moon. So, Uranian transformation is in high gear and will be expanded by the final Jupiter/Uranus conjunction, which will exactly square the Galactic Center! The Jupiter/Uranus conjunctions have been opening compassion and spiritual awareness amidst great societal changes. I've noticed that most people are deeply concerned about unemployment, homelessness, suffering during war, and cholera spreading in Haiti.

Mercury retrograde in 25 Sagittarius (on the Galactic Center) closely squares Jupiter/Uranus in Pisces, which suggests many people will know they must give assistance to others now. This rising heartfelt desire to be there for others in need is going to expose the truth about mismanaged relief efforts-for example in Haiti, where the world's people have given so generously. Global charities seem to be little better than the burgeoning military contractors. Mercury closely sextiles Chiron-conjunct-Neptune in Aquarius, which means we can hope for the spiritual healing of our species at this time; people will demand the right to assist others in need. Chiron has been exposing our deepest wounds as Neptune has softened our boundaries and caused us to grow spiritually. The whole world seems to be watching the actions of the Americans because the Neptune/Chiron conjunction has been on the 1776 USA Moon since April 2009, and it is still there in February 2011. This close square to Chiron/Neptune from Mercury may expose the depths of the American healing crisis, especially since Haiti is within its sphere of influence. Cholera will spread throughout the Caribbean if the US does not pay fair attention to such a problem so close to home. Obviously, shock and awe will grow over the US attacking the East while the "Homeland" is in meltdown.

Venus in 14 Scorpio really catches my eye because the New Moon on November 5 was in 14 Scorpio. That is, Venus in 14 Scorpio during the solstice expresses the dynamics of the great emotional awakening that began with our entry into Day Seven in early November-when the agenda was balancing male and female dynamics. Venus in Scorpio sextile Mars in Capricorn joins deep love with determined power. This duo softens the stressful energy of the Cancer Moon opposing Mars/Pluto. Pluto rules Scorpio, so Venus in Scorpio could show people the truth and push them to see that inaction just leads to dead ends. Venus in Scorpio sextiling Mars in Capricorn means that female honesty complements male strength, which could really reduce gender stress. After so many centuries of senseless wars, do not underestimate the deep anger between men and women.

Saturn in 16 Libra squaring Mars in 11 Capricorn is another tense position. Saturn in Libra seeks harmony and balance but he is checkmated by Mars in Capricorn, who tends to bash blindly ahead. Saturn will limit the aggressive push of Mars/Pluto in Capricorn, yet all three will fester and feel frustrated. Saturn in the middle degrees of Libra has been pushing very hard for balance in world structures; and when Saturn came to 14-15 Libra, we had a Saturn Return in the USA chart at 15 Libra. When this influence came on in mid-November, airline passengers resisted abuse as they boarded planes, and they began objecting to the Nazi-like policies of the TSA. The US government is extremely disturbed by the WikiLeaks, even though the US has not been as negatively exposed as some other countries. The US may be taking these leaks too seriously, since Saturn in the middle degrees of Libra is a defining moment every 29-30 years for Americans. The people are demanding openness now and governments have been too secretive, so the Internet is moving the world into Oneness.

This solstice chart is not an easy one, and not an energy configuration that fosters contemplation; we are being called instead to action. It suggests we will have a difficult period of facing hard truths and many challenges, and that deep compassion will be needed. Regarding issues like our liberty and the TSA, Mars/Pluto opposite the Moon in Cancer means we will not allow ourselves to be abused. The WikiLeaks will just keep on coming until politicians return to serving the people openly. Cholera in the Caribbean will force the US to face its darkest shadow-endemic racism since its founding-and there was a previous Saturn return in Libra right at the end of the Civil War. Saturn in Libra says it is time to demand justice and fairness, and Venus in Scorpio expresses the deep feelings that we all carry. This is going to be a period that calls for bravery and honesty, careful attention to our loved ones, and trust for each other as we learn to flow together instead of always demanding the lead. It is time to see that we need each other, now more than ever.

DRAGON STORM: Saturn's great "Dragon Storm" has returned. The ferocious thunderstorm observed for years by NASA's Cassini spacecraft has recently been hiding under high clouds, but now it is showing itself again. Using an 11-inch Celestron telescope, Christopher Go of the Philippines photographed the white tempest on Dec. 13th: [link to www.spaceweather.com]

"The storm was so bright, I was even able to see it visually [through the eyepiece]," says Go. In years past, the storm was located in Saturn's southern hemisphere, "but images taken by me and other amateur astronomers show that it is now in the northern hemisphere." The shift is consistent with findings that the Dragon Storm is a long-lived disturbance deep within the gas giant's atmosphere that moves around and periodically flares-up to produce large, visible storm regions.

RARE LUNAR ECLIPSE: The lunar eclipse of Dec. 21st falls on the same date as the northern winter solstice. Is this rare? It is indeed, according to Geoff Chester of the US Naval Observatory, who inspected a list of eclipses going back 2000 years. "Since Year 1, I can only find one previous instance of an eclipse matching the same calendar date as the solstice, and that is Dec. 21, 1638," says Chester. "Fortunately we won't have to wait 372 years for the next one...that will be on Dec. 21, 2094."

This Week's Moonscopes Forecast
For the week of December 19 to December 25

Sunday, Monday: the Moon is in Gemini
It might seem like there is way too much to do right now and that time is moving too quickly. Sometimes this can happen when Gemini is prominent because the flip side of this sign is scattered thoughts or energies. Or perhaps it's because of the Full Moon. Or whatever. The main thing to remember is that there is calm energy coming and that there will be a lot to celebrate as well, so just stick to your lists and check items off as you go.

Tuesday(Full Moon)(Lunar Eclipse)(Winter Solstice), Wednesday: the Moon is in Cancer
Note - the Full Moon & Lunar Eclipse actually occur in the wee hours of the morning when the Moon is in the last degrees of Gemini (EST). And - Winter Solstice traditionally is the midpoint of the winter season, not the beginning as it is often referred to now (northern hemisphere). This is a Total Eclipse and as such is nicely auspicious and quite favorable as a lead-in to the serene and composed nature of the Winter Solstice.

Thursday, Friday: the Moon is in Leo
Leo loves to have fun - that's the bottom line. So kick back and enjoy all the good things at hand and don't even think about anything else. Venus in Scorpio is square the Moon in Leo and this indicates the possibility of finding something (or someone!) enchanting and charming, hidden and long forgotten until now.

Saturday: the Moon is in Virgo
Simplicity is the best word for this weekend. Engaging in pleasantly pure and sweetly simple activities or pursuits will benefit everyone. Physical & mental health are two things in Virgo's domain, and it would be helpful all 'round to keep this in mind and stress at a minimum.

Check your astrology chart to find which house (section of your chart) has the current Moon sign on the cusp (the beginning edge) & apply Forecast information to that area of your life as well.
For example, the Moon is in Leo and one of the suggestions is to entertain - however Leo is located in the 12th house of your chart, which is an inward energy place...then have a small, quiet gathering. By contrast, if Leo is located in the 1st house of your chart, an outward energy place...have a party! Don't have an astrology chart? Click here .

Wishing Happy Full Moon and Solstice to my family - HarmonyH and Coyote, and all who come here to read.

``` :oi8v:

If it all becomes to much over the next 10 days, feel free to come lie down on the couch and chill.


This Christmas Cabin also has a blue spinning tree, cause we all know - tis in the spin

``` :po89j:

``` :fhgyt5:

that cabin makes me think that there's someone who can read my mind. read my thoughts, memories, and knows all about me.


is it in the future, or from the past? Ghost of xmas future, or past?

Hello, that cabin can be whatever you want it to be - past,present, future - I like going there in my mind, tis so easy to feel it - and of course living in Oz I dont know white christmas's, thats why I have this cabin.

I have spent a great deal of time in a cabin exactly like that, even the same decor.

I'm not kidding.. every detail is the same. The fireplace is EXACTLY the same, wood ducks on the walls, the snowshoes, orange sofa, the dog, braided rug, even the picture over the mantle is EXACTLY the same. Trunk next to the fireplace, fishing rod etc. It's like a snapshot right out of my memory bank.

I'm only remarking on it, because it's so remarkable.. to me.

It's like a painting of the very same room.

Maybe its sychronicity - is there something undealt with in you from your time there ?? If not I hope it brought back happy memories for you.
