Cosmic Weather Forecast

 Warm Wesak greetings from your editors Curtis Lang and Jane Sherry! We hope this Scorpio Full Moon and Taurus Solar Festival will be a positive tu...

This Mercurial Full Moon in Gemini will be in a harmonious trine to Mars, which entered the Air sign of Aquarius on December 4, 2014, and the combination should create a powerful vortex of transpersonal mental activity that will sharpen the intellectual faculties, provide easier access to Higher Mind, and spark a strong increase in spontaneous sharing, amplifying Holiday feelings of community.

The Full Moon in Taurus is traditionally a lovers’ moon, perfect for romance, which combines the emotional, sexy watery nature of Scorpio with the earthy sensuality of Taurus.

We each contain within us the ability to love, to be loved, to honor even that which we do not understand. This is our true nature. We each contain within us the ability to change, to offer kindness to strangers, to see violence around us and choose the path of peace.

This Christmas season is full of challenging astrological aspects that have provoked a chorus of dismay from astrologers around the world, and we here at Satya Center are providing our readers with a treasure trove of Wisdom teachings and Solstice and Christmas meditations to help you cope with the Cosmic cross-currents we are encountering in every area of life!

We can expect that this Full Moon Penumbral Eclipse in the Cardinal sign of Aries will pump up the tense, conflicted energy that is being unleashed by the recurring Grand Cardinal Cross. However there are also several potent Trine aspects that indicate ease and grace, and promise that if we make an effort to connect with our spiritual guidance we will find we have all we need to navigate through the economic, political and environmental crises unfolding simultaneously on Planet Earth today.

Europe is melting down. The top ten industrialized debtor nations owe $70 trillion. There are $700 trillion in derivative debt instruments resting upon that $70 trillion in debt. So if these countries’ debts begin to default and financial markets and banks lose confidence in the ability of counter-parties to make good on the $700 trillion in extremely complicated wagers and counter-wagers they have made to one another it’s game over!

This month the sky is filled with signs and portents of earth-shaking change, some hopeful, some ominous, and the energy streaming in to us from the Cosmos is so powerful that our very physical vessels are challenged to maintain equilibrium. The task of humanity is to step forward into the Light with courage. The courageous are not necessarily fearless at all. The courageous are those who follow their Higher Purpose despite their fear!

Our task as a species is to become increasingly aware of our part in the web of life on Earth so that we can become conscious co-creators of a new Anthropocene civilization that will reverse human-created global warming, and invent sustainable human societies that live in harmony and balance with the Earth. This is a good week to meditate upon this epochal transition and how we can do our part to usher in the new.

This is the moment each month when an alchemical transformation occurs in the Solar System which benefits all Earthly life-forms. The masculine, yang energy of the Sun is transmuted by the feminine, yin energy of the Moon, and the energy that streams forth on the night of the Full Moon partakes of the energy signatures of both Solar Wisdom and Lunar Love.

An extremely rare Full Moon Total Lunar Selenelion Eclipse marks this as a time of dying dreams and simultaneously as a time when new visions for humanity's future are incubating within the collective consciousness of humanity.
