Surviving Mars Attacks and the Lunar Eclipse of April 25, 2013
After surviving a case of "Mars attack" last week we cautiously walked through the weekend when the main pull of the universe was inward. The Virgo Moon, one of the most introspective of all the 12 lunar signs encouraged reading, writing, studying, library work, and in-depth research as well as enjoying a healing massage and helping a significant other while Mercury formed a contra-parallel with Chiron on Sunday PM and then a supportive, 60-degree rapport with Juno.
It all culminated apotheotically with a Grand Trine (triangle) in earth signs involving the Moon in Virgo trine Venus in Taurus and also trine Pluto in Capricorn. How befitting for the day before Earth Day! I hope you enjoyed shopping for essentials at a favorite natural-food store, and stocked up on veggies, fruit, tea, vitamins, minerals, herbs, nuts, seeds and seasonings, the favorite trends under the health conscious Virgo Moon. Repair work and clean-up campaigns were also always highlighted when the Moon is in the sixth sign of the zodiac, so I hope you spruced up your backyard, porch and every nook and cranny with a super vigilant eye:)
And then....the Moon squared Jupiter Monday night and started a VERY long moon void of course period that lasted until ...Tuesday morning, when it finally entered darling Libra.
We can now enjoy being calm, collected and gracious, revamp our social skills and refined forms of expression and enjoy this dance while it lasts. BECAUSE....the winds of much needed change will start blowing soon when the Full Moon, partial lunar eclipse occurs on April 25.
This particular Full Moon eclipse has a distinctly karmic flavor. It’s always advised to roll with the cosmic flow of an eclipse simply because we can’t control the outer changes that occur and also because the universe knows more about what’s good for us than we might know ourselves. We have limited sight. The universe holds infinite insight, especially when linked with karmic Saturn as this one is. The position of this eclipse in relation to the rest of the universe speaks of finding balance in our everyday lives. Eclipses bring about necessary changes. Where could you use a little more balance in your life?
Aries
This eclipse will illuminate key areas of your life where change and transformation is needed and necessary for your overall well-being. It’s time for quality over quantity, when little things mean a lot.
Taurus
Your 7th relationship house is home to this lunar eclipse and that puts emphasis on your one-on-one relationships. Partnerships, friendships or even a love interest could shift your life into a new direction.
Gemini
Something you do daily as a habit and even your employment are all on the table when an eclipse lands in your sixth house. Remember, eclipses bring needed changes, so you should be happy once it all sinks in.
Cancer
Love, romance and even creativity are destined to get a much needed makeover with the influence of the eclipse and karmically correct Saturn in your 5th House of Romance. Something is about to shift for the better.
Leo
You have a karmic eclipse in your fourth house having to do with family, relationships and emotional happiness. Welcome changes bring a fresh approach to these matters.
Virgo
The eclipse sits in your house of communication. That could mean that writing, speaking, education or even changes to your immediate environment are all areas where changes are due to occur.
Libra
Welcome the changes that are about to happen to the areas covered by your second house of money and possessions, such as your gifts and talents and how you make money. A balance of less work and more creative endeavors is possible.
Scorpio
As the host of the eclipse and karmic Saturn, your relationship with yourself and how you present yourself to the world may be the subject of transformation. Perhaps you’ll start a fitness routine or even find a new way to relate to others.
Sagittarius
Like the fourth house, the 12th house, where this eclipse lands for you, is also related to our karmic path. The way you think about things, hidden agendas and even secrets can all open up. Your unique chance to let go of a troublesome past.
Capricorn
Friendships, close associations and even your immediate environment could change—either one or all. You adapt well and see challenges for what they truly are—a growing spurt. Embrace the winds of change.
Aquarius
Your house of careers is the focus for this eclipse. If you’ve felt stagnant or impatient about your working world, then you’ll welcome the changes at hand. If it means, for instance, less time at work, then that means more time for friends and family.
Pisces
Higher education, foreign travel and your life philosophy are all part of the ninth house which is where this karmic eclipse is taking place for you. Be prepared for a shift in how you view certain things.
Until next week, as I always say, live, love and learn.
