Astrology Now in June-July 2005 - What the Solstice Full Moon is teaching everyone for the coming weeks

by Robert Wilkinson

The recent Full Moon is extraordinarily important due to the degree points of the Sun and Moon, as they show great power in motion in all our charts. In this article I gave a brief sketch of what the coming weeks mean for each sign. My recent talk in Santa Monica went into much more detail about what's going on, and how best to play the energies of the next few weeks. This article will flesh out more about this major influence at work on all of us right now. This is a time of examining strengths and weaknesses, and seeing clearly what we should and should not cling to. It is a point of decision and power, free choice and potential excellence. We will all accept a fundamental reorientation that will take shape as a form of personal power and/or authority. We will see the light of what we care about, what nurtures us, and what we need to do to take care of business that really matters to us. It is a time best used to deepen personality and ways of maturing our sensitivity. We'll all get to feel what moves us, and make some major decisions that will change the course of our lives forever in some very good ways. Know what you need and what you don't, and have more faith. For most, it ushers in a time of relief and reward, opening a greater life. Blessings and possessions are on the way if you've done your preparation in the weeks up to now.

Though there is a Mars opposition Jupiter in the lunation, there is no Grand Fixed Cross to scatter things, but rather a powerful T-square driven by Mars that helps to integrate and release the beneficial energies of this Full Moon. The archetype is that we will become transfigured guardians, or charged with uplifting something while taming another. There are several big blessings and realizations for those willing to pay attention due to Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto forming a double quintile-biquintile, a.k.a. three points of a Great Quintile, always a bringer of gifts and highly specialized and unique conditions and events. Coupled with the Moon quintile Uranus on the point inviting us into the "sanctuary of Initiates," it's a uniquely favorable time to walk on into a greater effectiveness, maturity, or power.

We have the Moon, Jupiter, and Mercury forming three points of a Great Novile, always a bringer of spiritual realizations and breakthroughs after a period of questing, searching, or waiting for something's time to come. Uranus is in a binovile with Pluto, a huge invisible spiritual influence that will bring many collective transformations to a head quickly, powerfully, and beyond anyone's ability to control. All of these influences help to bring beneficial results from the overarching Seesaw Pattern prevailing over the next few months, helping us to see the whole picture with awareness of opposing views to come to a balanced larger understanding. We will be able to decide and act more easily than the months up to now, and just need to stay in touch with our feelings and our experience in the moment due to the strong Cancer-Pisces influence. Wouldn't want that stuff to get too bottled up, so be sensitive to what you truly care about and feel how it nurtures you.

To the degree we've been willing to do what we needed to do in the time since the Lunar Eclipse in April 2005, we've gotten our ego-will aligned with our higher "Spiritual" will, and the coming weeks we will reap tremendous rewards and happiness for doing what we were supposed to do. The lessons of the next few weeks simply involve seeing how "the standard is changing," and be willing to mingle in a larger realm of ideas and relationships. This will mean that we will inevitably leave some lesser relationships while embracing others that are more appropriate to us finding what we seek. Many of us will confront choices of knowing just who are our friends, who are not, which must be changed or left behind, and who we need for our growth. In any case, if your life gets overweighted in some fashion, find a way of movement, take action, and do your own thing in your own way. And remember to take delight in the rewards to be captured, since you're going to be nourished in a timely and abundant manner to the degree you're prepared for the feast!
