If you thought that the current vibes out there are particularly intense, you are right. The Full Moon on the 8th is a corker - just look at that Moon conjunct Uranus, with the rebel Uranus square (challenging) establishment Saturn. All this is happening with the COP27 meeting in Egypt at the moment, and therefore it would be interesting to see what information this Full Moon chart is offereing us at the moment.
As mentioned about, the square (a 90 degree aspect) between Uranus and Saturn seems to fit the description of the challenge that is facing us at the moment; change or keep the status quo. The thing is, changing will save us, maintaining the status quo will apparently lead to our undoing. The Moon in this chart, whilst also being occulted by the Sun, enmeshes her hidden light with that of Uranus, a planet which cannot be seen with the naked eye. In Ancient Eygpt, the Moon was represented by the God Thoth, depicted as a man with the head of an ibis. There are those who suggest that the curve of an ibis' beak resembles the curve of the crescent moon. Nonetheless, Thoth is accredited with having invented writing, and is associated with wisdom, knowledge, as well as being master of physical and moral laws (in accordance with Ma'at, who, by the way, was his wife).
One thing which stands out is also the fact that this is a Taurus Moon. The Sun is currently going through the sign of Scorpio, a sign associated with death and resurrection, and in fact, it is Thoth who performs the functions of psychopomp in the ancient Egyptian Book of the Dead. The Moon, however, is in a sign associated with fecundity and the bounty life can offer; this is the sign of the Bull, whose horns are associated with the shape of the crescent moon. So whilst this Full Moon's light is being occulted during a crucial time in deciding the fate of the planet, we are being shown that there are higher forces at work here.
Consider that Jupiter is at 29 degrees of Pisces, where it takes on a spiritual aspect (Jupiter in Pisces is alll about this), and that the placement of Jupiter near Neptune (spiritual idealism) trine the Midheaven suggests that should we want to apply our higher nature, we can aspire to higher ideals. To this end, we need the energy of Mars, whose placement in Gemini gives energy to words and whose elevated declination suggests that we could make use of its 'wild card' energy.
The message seems to be that no matter how bleak the picture seems to be, we need to aspire to create something beautiful, to remember that we are capable of doing good and better things. We need the courage to do this, and the tenacity of a bull to stay the course.  |
