Fate

Fate--- tricky business talking Fate---we dont know Fate---we label certain things as Fated--- we Blame Fate---and the hard stuff is accepting Fate. What is Fate and what is Choice? If one believes in Astrology--in ones birth chart---Fate is there---circling around the Wheel of our Lives always---. An astrologer will look to the nodes of the Moon----the point where the eliptic of the Sun and the Moon cross.
There stands Fate. Karma. Are they one and the Same? The Fates are known as Clotho the Spinner----Lachesis the Measurer---Athropos the Cutter---symbolic of the Triple Moon Goddess.Barbara Walker in her book Myths and Secrets says "if the Weavers could be induced not to cut the thread of Life at a perilous moment, the individual could be spared." One does have a say as to their destiny---and this is foretold in ones birth chart. The Law of Karma---for every action there is an equal opposite re-action. Choice.
The Moon touches us personally---emotionally---the Moon Re-Minds us. The Moon is melancholy----bittersweet---and the Moon is Longing. It can Inspire and Comfort and it can fill one with a sense of dread. I think its the Beauty---the Beauty that fills one with Awe or Dread. The Beauty that Re-Minds us of how little Time---how Finite it all seems to be. The Moon and her Beauty can lead us to the crossroads--to face the Fates----we may accept or deny-----To accept willingly---with integrity--- our Fate ---one may be spared. The Saturn piece.
Ones birth chart tells such a story of past present future ----ones Fate. The Key I think is Saturn. Our birthchart is a blueprint---every degree ---every planet is who we are. Saturn is our acceptance of our limitations--our ability to Be responsible----to accept full responsibility for our actions----and the equal and opposite Re-Action.
As ye sow---so shall ye reap.

synchronicity

Full Moon on Friday---and Mercury going retrograde----and synchronicity abounds. Its not just me---- i hear it everywhere! and what is going on? The planet Uranus rules synchronicity--and Mercury---and the Moon channels this energy depending on her sign and aspects. The New Moon in Taurus certainly grounds the Energy--Taurus Time is the most Earthy of the signs. The opposition of Saturn and Uranus has cooled a bit--for the moment--so this gives Uranus full reign-----I like to think of him looking down at our blue planet sending Electric Blue Light Rays---magic rays they are---full of Truth ----Cosmic Law. These moments happen at the crossroads of Time and Space--when we are fortunate enough to be in the right place----Magic Happens--and we are left with a feeling of awe---of being connnected to something bigger and beautiful---it leaves us with Hope and the feeling that Anything is possible! The Full Moon in Scorpio may intensify our feelings---- and can lead us out of the box---- into the moonlit Scorpio night where Magic surely abounds if we dare! Pay attention--ask for what you want. Mercury retro can confuse things--but Mercury the Trickster is all for fun and games---- take it lightly and let the Energy flow!
