Welcome to the first Lunar Eclipse at the start of the summer season! Tomorrow, June 5th, the Full Moon at 15 degrees of Sagittarius and the Sun at 15 Gemini, kicks off eclipse season at 3:12 pm EDT; unfortunately, we won't be able to see it in North America. It will be followed on June 21st by a Solar Eclipse New Moon, with both the Sun and Moon at 00 degrees of Cancer, one day after the Summer Solstice. This is the official beginning of Summer! As an added bonus, another Lunar Eclipse, Full Moon in Capricorn occurs on July 5th. And you thought things weren't exciting enough?!
The chart for this Full Moon Lunar Eclipse, clearly points out the struggles caused by squares to militant Mars and dubious Neptune from the Sagittarius Moon and Gemini Sun. Angst and confusion, uncertainty and an urge to move forward, but in what direction? No need to rush forward and create more problems. There's enough anger being spewed around as it is. Besides, Mars in Pisces (Neptune's home), needs to learn patience while focusing on his spiritual warrior identity. Instead of directing slings and arrows at "them", whoever they may put blame on, Mars' job here is to uncover the hidden truth that we are all connected and when one person suffers, we all suffer. Don't you get that already?!
Now... there's a lot more love being spread around than hate, if you just look for it! The news and social media focuses on division, so cut back on your daily dose of fear-mongering. Yes, Venus is retrograde in Gemini, so we do need to be flexible and adaptable while practicing our listening skills. Actually, this is a good time to reflect on what's important to us, who and what we value and where we feel good about ourselves. As the esoteric ruler of Gemini, Venus wants to spread love to everyone she comes in contact with. Sometimes that takes the form of loving detachment, knowing when to keep our mouth shut or walk away from a person, or a situation that can be harmful or doesn't serve a higher purpose.
Look at that, I almost forgot to talk about the Sagittarian Moon! Full Moons always highlight how we're doing with the energies that started at the New Moon two weeks prior. With the Sun in Gemini, sharing ideas, planning and connecting is still the focus. The Moon in Sagittarius will reflect those ideas onto the bigger screen to see where we might move out into the world. Instead of thinking only about our little reality, we can begin to recognize that there are a lot of other realities and somehow, they're all connected. This is a future-oriented sign and tends to be inclusive, rather than exclusive.
The Moon in this optimistic and out-going Fire sign, is greatly needed to keep inspiring us to look ahead, and yet it will be eclipsed by Gemini Sun's duality, pushing our emotional natures all over the place until we just want to run away. But we can't... besides, where would we go... rocket launches currently only take two people at a time off the planet.
Speaking of which, there are Russian and American cosmonauts living and working together on the International Space Station 200 miles above the Earth. They live in a highly technological environment, orbiting their home planet every hour and a half. Don't you think they occasionally look down and marvel at beauty of this planet and wonder how human beings can choke the life out of each other as well as pollute the air they breathe and the water they drink, all to line their pockets at the expense of mankind? Perhaps this Lunar Eclipse will show us a new direction for our higher minds, so we can become our better selves.
Look up to the heavens, head in the stars and be grateful for the ground you walk on.
I like your information which is very useful for me. Thanks.

Cancer New Moon & Solar Eclipse
by Suzanne Keating
The Summer Solstice arrives later today as the Sun enters Cancer at 5:43pm EDT; see yesterday's post regarding the start of summer!
Today's big news is a powerful Solar Eclipse at the first degree of Cancer, coming right on the heels of the Solstice, exact at 2:41 am EDT. on Sunday. Why is this eclipse so special? Because is sits on the "world axis", which is zero degrees of the Cardinal Signs: Aries/Libra and Cancer/Capricorn. In Cancer, it strengthens our bonds to home, family and children and the need to support, defend and nourish all families.
Eclipse energy breaks old patterns and in Cancer, old emotional wounds. They are turning points which can have an effect for days,weeks,months and even years. Eclipses also signal an opportunity to make a change quickly, often heralding the end of broken structures or the demise of leadership past its expiration date. My posts are generally not politically motivated, but sometimes one needs to speak up.
Don't expect magical overnight change... there's still a lot of work to be done! However, the awakening consciousness on the planet of the need for families to have food, shelter, health care and the dignity of a job so they can maintain the security of their homes and children, is seeing a massive resurgence of attention. It comes in the form of recognition and acceptance of the inequities built into this country's foundation. What can you do to help affect this forward growth? Begin where you live. When you see injustice, speak up. When you see someone hungry, feed them. When you see a need, address it, and when someone needs a friend, just be there and listen.
Little miracles can happen in out hearts and minds as we change how we view homelessness, poverty, immigration and racism. Acknowledging that our systems are corrupt and that our leaders souls are bankrupt, involves looking at new systems that embrace caring and compassion for each and every man, woman and child, no matter the color of their skin. Until the well-being of the individual is assured, we won't know peace and prosperity for all.
We can only do this by caring about each other, listening to each other and demanding better of our leaders at every level of government. It is time to uproot the systemic racial injustice rooted deeply within our country and weed it out. That's the biggest way we can begin to heal as a nation.
Love, Light & Liberation~
