Mercury conjunct Pluto square Uranus

I hate to play the part of oldman Saturn and be the holiday partypooper but i feel i should put this out there that in Astrology Mercury represents something moving from one point to another, so your car, traveling, information, thoughts, communication, etc all fit into that category and the next 24 hrs transit Mercury is making an annual hard alignment with two very powerful forces that are facing off right now so its very very likely a lot of people will be facing something powerful and intense the next 24hrs or so. Be extra cautious when out, and drive very careful. Also intense information can come in via any form of communication. If you are traveling make sure your car is checked out first, things can break. Also communication, transportation, information, news, etc all look kind of destructive the next 24 hrs with possible surprises. Hate to say it, but just be aware of your surroundings when out and about. I hope i'm wrong but regardless the mental energy will be very intense and unstable.. Still have fun though just be careful and stay conscious. Happy holidays.

Saturn in Sagittarius Dec 23 2014 - 2017

  Saturn finally leaves Scorpio after 2 1/2 years and enters Sagittarius at 8:34 am PST. Dec 23. This is a huge energy change. Saturn has a 30 year cycle so this move into 0 degrees of Sagittarius only happens once every 30 years. When Saturn was in Scorpio we had to face everything hidden confronting shadows of the past facing deep fears. It has been some heavy intense times for the last couple years, no? Well i think with Saturn's change of signs into the Fire element we should all feel some pressure relief on some levels. Saturn is Sagittarius will be demanding a totally different responsibility and commitment out of us for the next 2 1/2 years. Wherever Saturn is we need to get real, serious, commit, work hard and do what we know needs to be done.

Find the house in your chart ruled by Sagittarius. The area of life that corresponds to that house in your chart is where you will be forced to deal with this mature responsible energy. This means we are all starting a new transit. Also see if Saturn is making any aspects to your personal planets, if so those energies are under "get real" transit energy. Yes, that's what a Saturn transit is, it's asking for you to get real about that area of your life and commit to something more. In general though, we are all being asked to take responsibility for our personal beliefs and what big picture views we see the world in. Are your beliefs working for you or against you at this stage of your life? It's possible your current beliefs were formed long ago, maybe even 30 years or so ago when Saturn was last in this area of your life and now it's time to bring those beliefs up to date. Things have changed in the last 30 years, you know much more now and have come a long way. Your Sag house (area of life) needs to mature now.

This transit will also be asking people to slow down on life expansion and restructure it slowly. For some people this can mean a need to commit to greater education. For others they may need to commit to broadcasting, publishing, writing, teaching, public speaking. etc. Other people might find they are called to commit to a higher spiritual path, stabilizing their spiritual beliefs, as they have probably changed in the last 30 years. For everyone this energy could be asking us to get in touch with how we feel about the world we are a part of. Are you for or against the current system? Your philosophical higher mind will be activated with this transit and your opinions need to be grounded in some kind of reality, honoring what you think. 

Saturn in Scorpio had us going into the underworld and pulling out everything hidden; well now Saturn in Sagittarius has us going higher above and beyond confronting personal ideas and conceptions that hold us back from expansion and achievement.  It would be wise to learn something new now, become humble and commit to higher forms of education for yourself no matter how that manifest. We don't all have to go back to school but we are all about to get "Schooled" in some form or another. Is your lack of knowledge on something holding you back in life? Is your faith in yourself or something beyond yourself healthy? Our personal level of enthusiasm and optimism can also be going thru some energy shifts; some grounding effects and so don't be surprised if you find yourself or others questioning you and your stance on life. This Capricorn new moon is all about focusing on commitments and responsibilities, building and stabilizing something new for the long term but first we have to get our higher mind, thoughts, conceptions, ideas about self and life in the right perspective and that's what Saturn will be doing as it transits Sagittarius. 

Again, find your house ruled by Sag and this is where you will be facing some restructuring situations this next couple years. This will be the area of life to commit to and work hard in. Take issues of this house to the next level. Expand your life slowly. Build structure for the long term, when it comes to your perceptions on the big picture and your sense of responsibility Take smart practical risks, nothing crazy or immature. Commit to your future. If you can do all this, you will be on track with your new Saturn transit. 

I hope the info was helpful, let me know if you need more info on the house this is in for you.

Capricorn New Moon/ Winter Solstice - Energy/Season change Dec 21 2014

The astrology is getting very complex the next several days. Venus gets in deep, unexpected attractions and other surprises! Then the Capricorn new moon winter solstice this weekend! After that, Saturn leaves Scorpio! Exciting new beginnings but plan for hardwork!
Many different aspects are all tied into something bigger the next few days. The main action starts Dec 20 Saturday afternoon Venus is aligning with Pluto while in negative alignment with Uranus. 


This means there is strong extra powerful passionate controlling rebellious feminine energy which is increasing desires of the deep and intense kind, hidden repressed kind and any other kind you can think of. We might have a challenge fulfilling our desires without everything falling apart in the process. Unless we wait, ground, plan, work hard and focus on the long term goal no matter if some sacrifices are necessary or not. The universal attraction will be on transforming money/resources matters along with serious relationships dealing with endings and new beginnings.

This is in the sign Capricorn which brings my attention to Saturn at the last degree and last few minutes of Scorpio preparing to make a huge energy change into Sagittarius for the next 2 1/2 years. But before that happens something very serious has to take place. With Venus conjunct Pluto be careful of playing dirty and using manipulation to get what you want at the same time others can play dirty too, so don't get sucked into drama. No need for that or any kind of manipulation or revenge. Everything happens for a reason, some old commitments need to be settled now, ended or renewed. Some relationship or money surprises too.

It will be easy for everyone to just react on desires without even thinking of consequences so stay aware this Friday and Saturday before the new moon. People have strong needs right now especially for the future and values are transforming too as we start to prepare for how we plan on getting everything we need and want for this next cycle. Venus squares Uranus same time Saturday morning/afternoon and so something unexpected, radical and exciting could happen. The social vibe gets crazy for good or bad. people will be reacting passionately so just tread lightly with others this weekend in the social scene, Spending money unexpectedly can happen too. Some serious relationship business will be or is taking place, perhaps some new wiliness to commit or some kind of person in authority regarding issues with money, resources or love,. Big long lasting impulsive decisions could happen for a lot of people. Full on commitment or breaking free. The middle path will be tough to find. New partnerships that go deeper financially, trusting, committing, being innovative and broad minded to build something old in a new way, stable for the long term but requires great risk, stress, lots of innovation thinking totally outside the box and using the strong energy of revolution and power along with practicality to your advantage. Some deep old money matters could pop up this weekend. or you could find yourself totally turned on and excited by something or someone new. If you already have a partner mix things up this weekend, it's going to be passionate one. The need to break free from other people's control will be extra strong so i wouldn't push people too hard, who knows how they might react.

Whatever happens this weekend really sets a new tone for the next month and beyond as right after this the moon and sun conjoin for a Capricorn new moon Dec 21 right on the winter solstice. This is big time new start energy. Whatever Venus just activated in your house of Capricorn Friday and Saturday will help you know what your new moon intentions on Sunday should be about. You have strong needs right now and this new moon can be the seeds that start the process. It's best to wait until after the new moon is exact Dec 21 535 pm.PDT - thru Dec 22 will be best time to write down your intentions for manifestation later. Then plan, save, work hard and do whatever it takes to make sure you achieve these long term business intentions in which ever way this is manifesting for you personally. Control your revolutionary energy for best results, not too much tho, use it too.

Until the new moon its best not to start anything new, use this next day or so for release, letting go of old plans, outdated desires, people etc. After the new moon when you see the crescent light start to reflect off the moon you'll know its time to start the climb up the rocky mountain of personal achievement. In Capricorn its a slow process so you must have patience and perseverance along with hard work lots of action for two weeks until the full moon exhausts the energy where its no longer supporting your efforts. Work in flow with nature for best results. If you have a new business, work, money or any other material practical needs and desire this Cap new moon will be the best time of the entire year to start any kind of long term project getting an extra boost from the solstice energies.

Saturn will still be in the last few minutes of Scorpio on this new moon which means make plans to finalize all old business that needs to be dealt with. Old money matters, obligations, commitments, etc, these things need a resolution. In order for you to achieve all you desire for the future you must make room by saying goodbye to the past obligations no longer valid. It's just how the universe works, everything is in constant motion of change and this solstice new moon is a change of seasons, so powerful, really one last moon cycle to finalize this last 2 1/2 years of Saturn in Scorpio, the heaviest sign and 2 1/2 out of every 30 years. So a big pressure and weight is about to lift off of us and the future hopes and dreams open up. Saturn will then help us get real about our beliefs and big picture views for the next couple years.It's about getting serious about higher levels of spirituality and faith rather than confronting shadows like this last couple years I'll write about all that later though,

First we have to end this long cycle and start new projects with new plans. Its really a working hard new moon trying to get back control of your values and resources, building long lasting stability from an alternative route. The people that use Uranus and innovate, thinking out side of the box doing something old that is stable and traditional yet is in a totally new way will be the ones to reach the summit this next year. As much as some of us might want to say f' it' and break free, the north node is in Libra, the sign of other people, so we do need other to get where we are going...
Happy winter solstice and blessings on your new moon!

Third quarter moon Dec 14 2014 - Uranus square Pluto

It's third quarter moon time, Stress and tension forces dynamic action, challenges and obstacles appear. Typically known as a crisis in consciousness phase in regards to this full lunar cycle; looking back, needing to make adjustments with how things have turned out; a certain level of acceptance and a wiliness to release what does not work, even if its a little disappointing.

This moon is Virgo, so it's very logical and analytical. This can help us stay grounded as the sun is highlighting big dreams and adventures for the future that might be a little too much. Virgo moon brings us back to earth. Yet, the pull to the adventurous sun is extra powerful right now as it makes a perfect trine aspect to retrograde Jupiter, the largest planet in the solar system and means an easy outlet for some of this 3rd quarter moon tension to be released.  That's the secret, direct and release. Jupiter retro is going to help us go back over our beliefs about our self and make some adjustments. We can actually find the joy and adventure we seek in the outside world through the self and inner world, exploring the higher mind; directing expansive energy into learning new things, using creativity to fulfill a need for expansion and expression of self without having tot totally change our outward practical life.

At the same time we have Uranus and Pluto moving into a 6th out of 7 exact square since 2012. Systems are breaking down, both in society and somewhere in our personal life. Revolution vs tradition; commitment vs freedom. This can really heat people up so random unexpected expressions and situations can come up now. The urge to revolt and do our own thing is strong but we can't totally split or only crisis and destruction will appear so we have to build stability from a grounded logical perspective yet with  authenticity and innovation of Uranus. Authority issues and power struggles are possible but it's also possible a lot of this tension will be on the inside and manifest at a later time. Increase in earthquakes and other destructive events are also possible around this time

So here's the thing; these are the universal energies around us right now regardless if we like it or not but because the universe is mental we can direct our personal universe through our mind and heart letting these energies play out around us without trying to control too much. Circumstances could be intense but how we react to them is everything. Use the positive outlet from sun to Jupiter, exploring the higher mind and future possibilities. Do art or other creative projects that won't totally destroy your life's routine, finding that extra fulfillment you seek through self.

Take this last quarter moon to go within self and release all the troubles of this last few weeks. Prepare self for the upcoming solstice and Capricorn new moon on Dec 21.

Thanks, enjoy ;)

Venus in Capricorn Dec 10 2014

Venus says goodbye to Sagittarius and hello to Capricorn; it's time to stop messing around! Relationship dynamics change, along with personal values attractions, desires, resources and everything else you personally consider sweet and nice, is up for some adjustments next few weeks. In Capricorn the feminine turns all business and mature like, real serious, playing by the rules; her values change, even if so slightly. I can only speak generally here but Venus in Capricorn likes retro, old school delights. She likes to take it slow, She's attracted to achieving something long term which takes time. Commitment and responsibility is attractive for this Venus and the feminine will generally be attracted to the more shy humble gentlemen type and maybe a man in a suit which she might wear too. Vintage becomes sexy again; manners and opening her door is too, might even score you some extra points, for a week or two :)

 With Venus in Capricorn reputation is a serious matter. Don't expect too much gushy lovey stuff, she can be a little rough around the edges. This Venus shows her love in other ways, like bringing home the bacon. The thing is Venus is way ahead of the game as the main power source of the solar system along with Mercury and Ceres are all still back in Sagittarius reflecting the need for traveling, looking forward to holiday  and other fun things, learning about stuff, dreaming about everything jolly, not wanting to be tied down by responsibilities and commitments. Sagittarius needs some space damnit, room to go climb a mountain or something; the freedom to roam, ..and if not that then at least a big screen tv, sports and some beer.

However the universal desire will be on much more than that.

This particular Venus in Capricorn could easily lead people into deeper more serious relationship matters. That's because she will be heading towards Pluto in Capricorns ruled by Saturn which is at the last 2 degrees of deep Scorpio the sign of Pluto, mutual reception here, which means Venus will be in the middle of the two karmic heavy weights that isn't always fun, tho could be. Now we are heading into mob territory. Throw some Virgo in there and she'll have tattoos and some piercings too. ha just kidding, kinda. Dry humor can go a long way with this one. We might start to desire achievement of something. But what? I'm thinking long term relationship transformation! Saturn has been in Scorpio for the last 2 1/2 years, one more month before it leaves and starts transit thru Sagittarius. These last 2 degrees suggest some serious relationship business needs to be taken care of before the end of this year. Commitments of the past. Truly ending this last 2 1/2 years of drama, change, crisis, suspicion, fears and tons of other stuff that came up from the shadows. What needs to be finalized in regards to your money or love matters? Old commitments end, new commitments start. Love might get intense closer she gets to Pluto where all truths of the last year come out, which transforms the relationship for good or bad, depending on the choices of this last cycle. A lot of this could be more about money then love but love will have this tone too, all hidden undercurrents as the Sagittarius energy keeps the jokes rolling in on the surface. until the Capricorn new moon that is right before x-mas then the rest of the energy catches up with Venus and our desires, which will be to take care of business !

I would be careful and responsible with money this year and be prepared for some relationship intensity and because of that love can feel a bit chilly when it comes to intimacy. But knowing all this we can work with it creatively however you see fit. Yesterday the universal desire might have been to go party in Vegas whereas tomorrow might be playing a board game at grandmas, saving your money for a rainy day. Be smart this month take care of financial business that has been lingering in the shadows or holding you up from feeling free. Same could be said for any expired relationships. Don't let holidays energy weigh you down.

Jupiter is retrograde now, the outward expansion of life joy this last several months will slow down now and help us find more joy and faith within, seeking adventure in the mind rather than around the world. Well that's the gist of it.

Let me know if you have any questions. I'll have a new moon post out soon as well. Enjoy the rest of your week.

Uranus square Pluto Dec 14 2014


On December 14 2014 Uranus and Pluto will square each other for the 6th time since 2012 with only one more exact 1st quarter square to come in 2015. Square aspects are when two very different energies are fighting for dominance causing a high amount of dynamic and stressful energy depending on the two energies involved. With these two heavy weights, the tension will be extreme. This sequence of 7 exact squares in this 4 year period from 2012-2015 is very important for the world but requires looking at it thru a big wide perspective to fully understand what the significance is.  I'll try to explain what this process is representing for the earth and everyone on it.

Looking at the full cycle of this event, it's roughly a 139 year cycle that will change the world in every single way. It all started back around October 9 1965 when these two very different planets came together as one. So what is Pluto and Uranus symbolic of? Transit Pluto is symbolic of power and control from outside forces; it's deep, secret, manipulative, dominate; a slow but unstoppable force that destroys and transforms. Transit Uranus is symbolic of rebellion with full revolution. It can strike without warning bringing sudden changes; wants to break free from tradition and innovate, bringing more futuristic capabilities, originality along with individual freedom from repression.

This is why when these two planets made conjunction in the mid 60s we saw the beginning of world revolution but as they begin to separate over the years that revolutionary energy started to decrease so the revolution momentum waned. At least it appeared that way from the short term perspective but now as the year 2012 came into the picture Uranus and Pluto came back into a connection through a hard 90 degree aspect called the 1st quarter square which caused these two energies to fight for dominance as both are trying to work out how to cooperate with each other, giving equal respect . However, with the square, that process doesn't come easy and destructive violent revolution is always the result.

Now we have to factor in the signs involved for better understanding. Pluto is in the sign Capricorn, Uranus is in the sign Aries. Capricorn is the business sign. For the world it's symbolic of each culture's structure; the deep supports and foundation that each generation has built upon. It's symbolic of the establishment, outside authority, institutions, government, law, etc. For the world Aries represents individuality, freedom, war, aggression, dominance, the sward that either works for or against the empire. This is the reason we have been seeing so many world changes that started to increase since 2012 including the Arab spring and occupy movement; revolution that has been spreading from one country to the next and will eventually dominate the United States as well. It's important to remember that with a cycle as long as 139 years these exact dates mean very little as the energies build a few years before and wane a few years after these aspects are exact but will always be the strongest when exact.

Pluto in Capricorn is the establishment trying to maintain control. It's a powerful force that has little regard for the feelings of the people. It's the money, banks, institutions, government, etc, trying to manipulate us into submission, keeping facts hidden. Yet the other side of Pluto in Capricorn is slowly destroying and transforming that very foundation that is clinging to power and changing the way each country runs its business. It will eventually change those powers over the people into something more beneficial for each country and the world as a whole. But before the new can be re birthed the old must be destroyed. If it wasn't for Uranus in this mix, we might all be destroyed and rebirthed into some new form of establishment that wouldn't serve the people any better than the last dictatorship. The western system is a fraud with very little control by the people. We are just stuck in the illusion that we are free because we can so called "vote". Though actually voting has very little true results for the common man and each so called party is actually just a front to keep people distracted from the true meaning of what is taking place behind the scenes that voting has no control over.  Anyway, I won't get into all that right now. Ha. Back to the topic, Uranus is forcing the world to change the way it functions.as people become more conscious and aware of how destructive our lifestyles have been for us and the earth we are part of. Uranus is causing people to break free from outside control living a life of more Independence, freedom, innovation with new green technologies emerging everyday. It's the future vs the past and we need to find a balance between both needs. It's definitely representing war and revolution which should continue for years to come. With this being a 139 year cycle only our future generations will  receive the full benefits of what is transpiring in our time but still we will most likely see great progress to change within the next 20 years with some major events taking place within the next year with this 1st quarter square finalizing.

It's difficult to say what could manifest with this Dec 14th event because Uranus is actually retrograde (appearing to move backwards from the Earth's perspective) which would suggest the revolutionary energy this time around is taking place on an inner level that might not be so easy to see in outward events. Something is and will be transpiring from this event that will manifest in a later date when both Pluto and Uranus are moving direct which points to the final square on May 16 2015 which we could see major world events around that time. I can't say for sure though and it is very possible something shocking and unexpected could happen this month as well, At the very lest an increase in stress and tension as these two planets make a tight aspect.

That's on the world stage but this aspect is also playing out in each individual life manifesting differently based on your own astrology. The area of life (house) that Capricorn and Aries is within your birth chart is where the changes are taking place for your own life. This is all happening around 12-14 degrees Capricorn and Aries so will be extra strong if you have any planets or other personal points at those degrees including any 12-14 degrees of any sign of the zodiac but especially strong for the cardinal signs - Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn. For example if you have your Venus, say 12 degrees Libra, Cancer, Aries or Capricorn then your money, desires, values and relationships will be experiencing some mayor upheaval. If it's your Mars, your passions and expression, anger and aggression will experience the change. If it's your Saturn, your responsibilities and commitments and so on based on the symbology of each planet being affected. It might just stir up the trouble within now and actually manifest later next year. But no promises, the changes could manifest at anytime based on your other transits.

I hope that helps you understand this rare process we are all in. Every single thing in our solar system is being affected by this including you, me and the earth. I trust it's all meant to be, so holding on to the past will only make the process more challenging.

Your personal Astrological Elements and Modes

Everything in the solar system is made up of the five elements - Earth, Air, Fire, Water and Spirit including you and I ranging in different percentages based on the exact day, time and location of our birth. We all have the same amount of spirit which is our connection to the divine. Also we all have different percentages of the modes of expression - Cardinal, Fixed and Mutable energy. The universe is divided up into two principles - Masculine and Feminine which has nothing to do with our gender or sexual  orientation. Out of all the charts I've done I find most people have about the same amount of both masculine and feminine energy but some people are out of balance up to 20-30 percent which just means a life of finding more balance between the two.

Are you curious what your astrological stats are? I am offering a Gemini full moon inexpensive one page stat report on your personal numbers for $10.00 USD offer valid for the next 28 days. The chart below is my personal energies as an example of the basic chart you will receive but with your own numbers and will also include an interpretation of what each element and mode means. For example: my strongest elements are Air and Fire which are both the masculine principles of nature. Air is about the mental plane of knowledge and ideas; it's someone that spends a lot of time in their own mind thinking with a strong need to communicate those thoughts. Air people will literally be attracted to the Air as well as birds, places with wide open views, etc. Air people will find it difficult to slow the mind down and work intuitively such as Earth and Water people because Air is about the intellect and are here to use it. Fire is about someone that wants to penetrate life, not thinking but rather acting on instincts and divine inspiration. They are bold, confident, courageous often finding themselves in dangerous situations of adventure because they act without thinking. They are leaders and masters of creativity. They can be impatient and want what they want right now. Water is about being sensitive and in touch with emotions; compassionate and imaginative; intuitive, healers, nurtures, etc. Earth is people that are conservative, traditional, structured, stable, practical, masters of the physical plane of existence, etc.

Cardinal is people that are here to initiate new experiences all thru life. These people know change well and no matter how bad they might want roots they rarely stay put long enough to grow them. Mutable peeps need to stay flexible and adoptable to whatever the universe sends them whereas Fixed is grounded stable and rooted in one place most of their life, building something for the long term. These are just some basic examples but I will give more information about the different energies in your report.

If you are interested I will need your birthday, exact time of birth and location of birth. Follow the paypal link below to order and then send me an email astrohawk11@gmail.com with your birth information. I will confirm and add you to my list, then email you the report within 3 days of purchase if not sooner. https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=Y455YUDU423E8

Thank you, happy Gemini full moon.

Karmic North and South Nodes (Rahu and Ketu)

I'm so thankful for the self awareness and insights i gain thru the reflection of astrology.  I have so many influences and energies pulling me in different directions that knowing the best path to take would be extremely challenging without this invaluable tool of guidance. It's a very complex spiritual science but when in doubt can be easily broken down into the simple solution of aligning oneself with your karmic nodal axis. The North Node is the future; the direction the universe and your soul wants you to experience more of in this life; whereas the South Node is the energies of your ancient past which feels comfortable staying in, but often brings lack and discontent until balanced with the North Node which is unknown and uncomfortable yet ultimately leads to growth and consciousness expansion along with fulfillment based on your personal soul mission for this life influenced by decisions and karmic events of your past life.


When I place the current astrological transits into my birth chart, two different karmic nodal lines appear. The inside wheel is the line I was born with and will be true all my life whereas the outside wheel shows the current universal karmic nodal axis - what direction to take right now. I always follow both North Nodes. The universe will give you plenty of experiences to do so. But one of the most valuable lessons i've learned is that we must not totally abandon the South Node experiences but rather incorporate and balance with the North. Staying stuck in the past will always lead to discontent yet it does take bravery to follow the unknown North Node route. 
I have some once in a lifetime transits going on in many different areas of life for several years but this full moon has brought the North Node right to my sun; an 18 year cycle which means the universe is pushing me once again to evolve into my main purpose in this life as it did 18 years ago. At the same time Jupiter is t-squaring my natal Nodal karmic axis; a 12 year cycle which means forced expansion of past and future which is Taurus/Scorpio. I know how to do hard physical earth work which i made a lot of money doing in my last life but doesn't give me the same level of pleasure in this life so i've been totally embracing my North Node route which can be summed up to spiritual, emotional and psychological research done while in isolation but because it is the opposite of my past life earth energy, it's left me struggling to integrate myself into the physical life of being human this time around including embracing money, the five senses, pleasure, structure, stability, safety and security - basically lacking everything real world, leaving my life lopsided. Taurus 5th and 6th houses is what i know well and i must not push it away or i'll quickly fade away. Time for me to get my shit together while still giving myself plenty of time to research and study my Scorpio North Node route that dislikes anything superficial; wants commitment and loyalty - "all or nothing" energy. Of course with my sun (purpose) in all that Libra energy 10th and 11th houses i'm no doubt suppose to share that knowledge as a part of my vocation. Yet i need some grounded physical work as well to maintain balance between both. Coming to earth is about embracing everything it is to be human without judging it. Taurus the Resources sign isn't just about making money and experiencing pleasure. Our shell, the earth has given us everything we need already but all depends on what each person values the most. For me i can be a rich man by keeping things simple and embracing all the free resources mother earth has provided without having to pay a damn thing to the empire. 
In conclusion this karmic activation is leading me to balance my karmic axis of past and future in a new way i've never perceived before which will manifest within the next few years at which time i should have finally found long term physical, mental, spiritual and emotional stability while still embracing change and the unknown. At least i'll die trying which could very well be a part of my destiny. 



Gemini Full Moon Dec 6 2014

The Moon is building to full in the sign of dualistic Gemini exact at 4:26am PST Dec 6 Sat morning opposite the Sun in expansive Sagittarius. This is the information axis; what's the unarguable reality right in front of you, here & now vs your big picture ideas & future view that you believe to be true. Both asking for balance between the two. This is a peak time for inner tension in the 28 day lunar cycle. Finding more truth involves incorporating both the mind and inner knowing. In spiritual circles we hear so much about how the mind will always lead us astray; to quiet it and dismiss it only trusting the heart. But that approach is just as off balance as only relying on the mind. We have a mind for a reason, it's not our enemy. Logic and reason can go a long way in bringing balance to our perceptions as long as we accept the information that comes from a source beyond reason. Life is dualistic, no sign knows this more than Gemini; make your peace with both polarities as balance is the way of the divine.

Happy full moon
