Full Moon & Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio, 25 April

Rerooting Responsible Sensations

This Full Moon in Scorpio brings the collective focus to a pure request to remain in the eye of the practice of patience to allow our core to be replanted as another reflective passage begins. The path of this Lunar peak is the first full lunation since Saturn entered Scorpio last fall, and equally brings forth conclusions to last November initiations presented under the Solar Eclipse from November 2012. Should we resist -choosing not to listen to the voice within- the regenerative force of Scorpio will surface hard-bitten verses self-reliant feelings throughout this Waning Phase until 09 May.

Moon enters Scorpio
6:25am EDT, 25 April to 7:32am EDT 27 April
Anytime our Moon is transiting in a water sign, our emotions have all the more tendency to become a powerful force over us. As our Lunar Lady soars with The Eagle, this precisely asks for examination of our core. As we filter our emotions in regards to transformation and self-control, we are able to bring forth an acute instinct and imagination to embrace.

Moon Void of Course
4:56am EDT 26 April to 7:32am EDT 27 April
Moon VOC is the passage in where the Moon makes its’ last major aspect to a planet before entering the next sign. In essence, it is a time that is well advised to not take up in forward motion nor important decisions for the future. As our Scorpio Moon opposes Venus at 13 degrees Taurus, spending time in reflection and review is favored until it enters Sagittarius.

Full Moon, 25 April, 3:57pm EDT, 05 degrees Scorpio
Lunar Eclipse, 4:07pm EDT
This is the second request for emotional reassessments within Spring 2013. The 05 degrees Scorpio point within the personal Zodiac Pie shows where a magnetic energy is wishing to speak. The 05 requests that we pay close attention to the force of change here within our lives- for this cipher always asks for us to take up with a SILENT LISTEN to understand the communicative energies surrounding us. Coupled by the longer term affects of a Lunar Eclipse, this is the precise point of life where we will equally see a releasing of what is no longer necessary here over the months ahead as conclusions are ready to be formulated.

Matters concerning our determination, sensitivity, and power to investigate will be present. The capacity for reliving past experiences is strong, and relying on psychic energies is prominent. Be aware of stinging, self-tormenting, and defiant reactions. The urge to manipulate should be avoided. Desires will be powerful and channeling them with proper intention is essential for this regenerative force to optimally heal.

For the Collective
This lunation and eclipse make a very close conjunction to Saturn Retrograde, who is only a mere 4 degrees away at 09 degrees Scorpio. There will be no escaping the responsibilities involved with what emotional clearing will ask of each and every one of use from this area of the Zodiac Pie. A bit of mystical assistance streams from Neptune over at 04 degrees Pisces, which allows us to connect as well how these two areas of the life can open further to the sensitive, intuitive and imaginative messages that Neptune and our Lunar Lady will be more than optimistic to relate to you.

Dynamically across the way, we find Mars in opposition to our Lunar Lady at 03 degrees Taurus, who may offer up some opposing feelings to assimilate into what we are being asked to be responsible to. As the these dynamic energies within The Bull fix us further into rooting into our Springs, the balance is offered to us from how Scorpio asks for to us release and arrive at finalizations from the opposite area of the life.

Lunar-O-Scope, Full Moon in Scorpio, 25 April 2013
For the collective horoscope, again we offer some simple advice for every sign from the outer vantage point. Remember if you know your Rising Sign (Ascendant), read that passage too, for it typically will apply to your personal charts’ advice. However, it is the awareness and mathematical analysis of the individual birth chart that will point to the accuracy of how the current planetary landscape affects you.

For the true astrology buffs, be sure to check the Scorpio House, in particular where the 05-degree Scorpio spot in your natal birth chart lives. (A natal birth chart is determined from the time of birth, which allows a more in-depth look to equally see where some pondering is ideally meant to unfold in how the planets uniquely affect you.) Whether the collective or individual vantage point, these are the areas of life that call for you to bring forth release and conclusions within the next two weeks to follow, and as a Lunar Eclipse promises- for up to an entire year’s time. Properly embracing letting go in these areas until the next New Moon upon 09 May will make the appropriate space for the new to be planted later.

Aries: Focus your attention and review your investments, taxes, shared/joint resources, all that I Transform. Other people’s sources of money may no longer serve you. Intense regeneration now takes you in directions you’ve never known before- exploring intimacy and the true depths of your soul. Time you spend in solitude assists in really understanding this process, and then you will equally see the value behind what you have and how to appreciate it all the more.

Taurus: Remain determined to share your feelings about those closest to you, personal or business, where I Relate. People from the past may surface, and conclusions form on who may be leaving. You reflect upon all one on one partnerships. Friends and groups are of help to translate information that allows release to be properly placed. As those approaches in your life continue to motivate changes, let them re-root you to solidarity like you’ve never known before.

Gemini: Your routine, personal habits, and health seek both sides of you to unite to regenerate where I Serve. Improvement on all levels asks to be considered relating to your service to the world. Time spent with pets is a source of healing and brings unity from the depths of your soul. The time you spend in stillness brings forth all the answers that are meant to speak and connect to how you can be allowed to then recognize how your public life and career are healing.

Cancer: That artistic adventure you’ve been responsibly putting all your imagination into looks for completion where I Create. Children may be on your mind and require your focus. Love affairs are contemplated, and you are anxious to figure out whether they are meant to become something you bring the curtain up or down upon. Allow a spiritual belief to re-educate you, which then makes sense to the excitement streaming from all of your hopes, dreams & wishes.

Leo: Heartfelt home and family concerns find release from where I Nurture. Time spent cleaning the home rejuvenates, preparing for new energies to emerge later. Balance asks to be achieved where you recharge the Lions’ lair. Déjà vu is prominent under this especially psychic full moon expressing intense and powerful messages.

Partnerships can offer you spiritual assistance that are keen on helping you arrive at powerful new beliefs to serve you now.

Libra: Your value system asks for investigation, for it’s time to re-evaluate your securities within all that I Have. A source of earning power may see a conclusion or change. Consider parting with possessions, especially ones you are dependent upon and truly no longer need. Steer clear of impulsive purchases- find bargains. Allow your intuition to serve you in better understanding your place in being of service to the world, and you’ll find magnetic ways to increase your wealth.

Scorpio: The most reflective time of the year is upon your spotlight Eagle! New approaches and letting go of what doesn’t fit into your passionate and magnetic first impressions of the world are the mysteries awaiting your “Sherlock Holming” with all that I Am.

You’ll equally feel some psychic streams from your thinking that give direction and drive to your creative nature.

Word Ponder: INFINITE POSSIBILITIES

infinitepossibilitiesWhen was the last time you thought about the INFINITE POSSIBILITIES of your life? As we are now fully engaged in the initiation of Spring, there is no better time to take up in your pioneering spirit and remember just how much you can strike up the means to reap whatever it is that your free-will desires within your continual journey of the LOVE to EVOLVE.

Looking to the Name Expression of INFINITE POSSIBILITIES, we find it rings to a pure 9, which is rather apropos to examine under the current energies of Aries. The 9 and Aries energies are both guided by our motivating planet Mars, who is happy to always help you in making just about anything happen within the life. While no Chaldean Karmic Mystery governs the singular 9, it is packed with sound advice to take up in the action of courage, while avoiding penetrating, conflicting or aggressive reactions.

You do wish to call up Mars or a 9 vibration to get things going in life, and what the beauty of the 9 does is call upon The Finalizer to guarantee the task will be completed. Unlike Aries, who must learn to co-operate with others to carry out their clever ideas, a 9 energy is always seen as the closer, the powerful force behind how anything will complete and conclude within the life.

The 9 is considered a Universal Number, in where there are some fairly neat mathematical associations with it. Add all the single digits up together from 1 to 8 and you’ll arrive at 45, a vibration of the 9. If you add 9 to any number, you’ll always get the same root number, ie: 5 + 9 = 14, and 1 + 4 = 5; 8 + 9 = 17, and 1 + 7 = 8.  The same thing applies to multiplication only that you’ll always have a new vibration of the 9, ie: 5 x 9 = 45, 4 + 5 = 9; 8 x 9 = 72, and 7 + 2 = 9. The 9 can never be destroyed, and it always makes more of whatever it is linked or connected to. So, with any Name Expression involving the 9, you can be promised it is backed up and guided by a most powerful punch to assist you in whatever you are doing.

So, as we ponder the INFINITE POSSIBILITIES, we have the 9 as our guiding light to make sure what we wish to claim them to be will be happily motivated to become magnificent manifestations within our soul’s purpose.  Shift the mindset to this potent phrase as you set your intentions and goals, and you can practically be guaranteed that you will witness amazing outcomes unfold.

As always, the wisdom of Lexigrams are here to grant another piece of solid evidence that spending time in keeping our dominant thoughts within the INFINITE POSSIBILITIES is time will most certainly will never be wasting.  As we take the anagrams that can be derived from this title, and formulate them into poetry and prose, we find the letters within are ready right in front of us to once more spell out the truth.

INFINITE POSSIBILITIES

SO IT IS, IN THE NINE TIE I BE BEST TO SEE A FINE LINE TO BE ON

IN LIFE, IT IS BEST I BE IN SENSIBLE TIES IN TIP TOP BELIEFS

IN A FINITE LIFE IN OPEN TIES, I SEE NOT TO STOP BENEFITS

IT IS POINTLESS I BE IN PETTINESS TENSIONS SO I STOP POLITE TONES

IT IS NOBLE I SEE LIFE IN OPENNESS, IN BLISS, IN SOFTNESS

IN SENTIENT TIES I SEE FINE IN ONE SILENT LISTEN, EON TO EON

ONESELF IS IN ONENESS, LIFE TO LIFE, EON TO EON, LESSONS TO LESSONS

IN BEST INTENT IN LIFE, I OPEN TO LET IN INTENSE FITNESS FINESSE

I BEST BE OPEN IN SILENT SENSES SO I BE BEST TO LISTEN

LIFE! IT IS POTENT IN LESSONS, BE IT BEST I POINT, I PILOT IN POISES

BLESS LIFE! BE I IN BLISS SO LIFE ITSELF TESTIFIES I SEE IT BEST.

May you enjoy the wonders of all the infinite possibilities that are thrilled for you
to begin to discover them, Dear Stars. Namaste.

NEW Moon in Aries, 10 April, 5:35am EDT

The Power of Peace

As this first New Moon of Spring in Aries kicks off, it is the divine time to welcome a NEW energy where The Ram takes charge of your life! The collective’s emotions receive dynamic and poised direction in the sign that pioneers and sparks true beginnings with the assistance of motivating Mars and the gracious joys of Venus. An absolutely active and keen instinct in the next two weeks strikes up to bring profound balance back into our lives.

Moon enters Aries,
3:02pm EDT 08 April to 11:22pm EDT 10 March

As the “planet party” has now been pleasing this area of the Zodiac skies, Aries lunar energy is wise to beware of restless, challenging, militant, and disobedient forces that may arise. When self-willed energies are around, it is easy to gravitate to unbalanced, aggressive, and hasty tendencies. While a strong sense of individuality and assertiveness mark any passage within The Ram, the cultivation of moderation, patience, forethought, and humility brings success.

Moon Void of Course
12:25pm EDT to 11:22pm EDT 10 April

Moon VOC is the passage in where the Moon makes its’ last major aspect to a planet before entering the next sign. In essence, it is a time that is well advised to not take up in forward motion nor important decisions for the future. As our Aries Moon conjuncts Venus at 24 degrees Aries, spending time in reflection and review is favored until it enters Taurus.

New Moon, 10 April, 5:35am EDT, 20 degrees
This lunation in Aries brings forth a pure awakening presence as easily aroused feelings take charge with The Ram, coupled with the ability to see both sides of the issues at hand. The first New Moon since our Messenger went Direct back in March- we can now embrace this time as our emotions welcome a fresh feeling, propelling us ever forward within our Springs. With these initiations embarking in the driving energies of Aries -the sign that consciously aims for leadership- the collective is really ready to take on a fearless approach. Gravitating to a true understanding of motivating peace from this powerful lunation will be vital under this first waxing period of Spring.

For the Collective
We have a most precious alignment upon this lunation from many directions to reap our emotional rewards. Looking to the 20 degree initiation point, we find the Chaldeans’ promise of The Awakening, which was also viewed as ‘The Judgment.’ “It has a peculiar interpretation, and is symbolized as “a winged angel, sounding a trumpet, while from below, a man, woman, and child are seen arising from a tomb, with their hands clasped in prayer.” At some time in the experience of the person or entity represented by the number 20, there is a powerful awakening, bringing in a new purpose, new plans, new ambitions- the call to action for some great cause or ideal. “

This New Moon is equally guided by the close conjunction of Mars and Venus, who are both at 22 and 23 degrees Aries respectively. As we take the time to place out intentions properly until the Moon VOC kicks off, we can not ask for a more exciting alignment form our planetary skies above down here below. The motivation to find peaceful means to understand what our new beginning are mean to be speaks loud and clear as not only energized but harmonious feelings will be bursting out shouting the joys of Spring wherever The Ram affects our lives.

It’s that time of the month when our feelings and emotions have the tendency to become intense. When you have the Sun in Aries and the Moon in Libra -you can expect one of two things: resistance or co-operation. A Full Moon in Libra brings forth a sensitive instinct and imagination -urging our courage and independence to emerge- equally asking that we take time to filter through our emotional take on relationships and harmony.

This month’s 06 degree point asks for compassion to accompany our conclusions, with the request to seek to understand, then be understood.

Remembering Gerald Jay Markoe

Happy New Year in Spirit to one of the most influential members of my adopted family Gerald Jay Markoe. My life changed completely working with him and Astromusic at INATS (International New Age Trade Show), where I “stumbled upon” a deck of Linda Goodman’s Star Cards, prompting me to return back to NYC and reread Star Signs.  This time around -during my own Saturn Return in my 10th house of Career- I finished her book, and the rest is now history. It is always with A TRUE GREAT TRUE ATTITUDE of GRATITUDE I extend to Dear Jerry for all of his encouragement to me over the years and support to keep at this astrology “thing.”

Jerry was a musical master being born 22 March 1941, the same date as Stephen Sondheim and Andrew Lloyd Weber. While Jerry innately picked up the piano as a toddler, Astromusic began when he started composing one’s personal musical score from the mathematical data the natal birth chart provides, thus translating to us, the sacred geometry it contains through the innate understanding that everything represents vibration in life through sound. Yes, what an absolutely stunning gift!

As time went on, Jerry – on the karmic path of the 22/4 Master Builder and Innovator that he came here to be- developed a new way to listen to timeless classical music with a new age flare. One can never find any 4 karmic path not trying to do things in life their own original way, and coupling that with the Aries pioneering drive, and what Jerry has left us through his Astromusic collection is an eternal gift waiting to heal any soul. Jerry’s passion for music was unsurpassed, as was his enthusiasm for teaching it- leading him to create an entire line of CD’s dedicated to developing a child’s mind properly.

Jerry always encouraged me to keep exploring how numerology could be layered into the astrology, but at the end of the day, he too became fascinated by my ability to Lexigram. We discovered, that indeed they worked quite well when we examined one of his best selling New Age albums, ‘Music of the Angels,’ from Allegro Music in 1995. This was one of the rare times a New Age album had sold over 300,000 copies, which in this genre of music, is like a platinum rock and roll record.

Even as Gerald Jay Markoe transited in spirit 12 March 2009, his energy is felt every day upon this earth because of the amazing talent and healing music he innately gifted us all with. The LOVE to EVOLVE that streams from what he created in his lifetime speaks for itself.

On this anniversary of his Solar Return, it is with fond memories to wish him a most Happy New Year in Spirit Dear Jerry and again extend my heartfelt GREAT TRUE ATTITUDE of GRATITUDE to your legacy.

NEW Moon in Pisces, 11 March, 3:51pm EDT

Renewed Spirit, Refreshed Soul

A new energy is birthing where The Fishes swim in your Zodiac Pie, even as our Messenger journeys in his passage of review. With the dynamic planet party presently swimming in The Fishes, the collective’s emotional focus now shifts to a sympathetic nature. As we take up initiation to gather back in the light in the dreamy sign that grants us imagination and sentimentality, how will you embrace the prevailing instinct that Pisces promises as another Waxing Phase begins?

Moon enters Pisces,
1:19am EST 10 March to 7:17am EDT 12 March

Deep and ever-active feelings love to find us as our Lunar Lady takes a swim with The Fishes. It is a great time to ponder in mystery, but be sure not to venture too far in the unknown. Emotions in mutable water lean to a susceptible energy that can easy to gravitate to indecisive, weak-willed, and lazy tendencies. There is great power in cultivating clarity and concentrating on instinct during this passage. Be cautious however of deceptive, self-indulgent, and chaotic feelings.

New Moon, Moon Void of Course: 11 March, 3:51pm EDT, 21 degrees Pisces
When our New Moon shows itself in the dreamy energies of Pisces -the sign that consciously aims for understanding- there couldn’t be a more auspicious time to receive impressions that open up our intuitive natures. Be sure to check the Piscean House, in particular the 21-degree Pisces spot, in your personal birth chart to see where a new energy is ideally meant to unfold. This is the area of life that heavily favors initiation in the next two weeks to follow, but proceed with caution under the request for Mercury’s Review. Seeds that you plant in this half of your Zodiac pie as the light gathers until the next Full Moon upon 27 March, are bound to reap a rich harvest further down the road.

For the Collective

The possibility of restless feelings may create some waves, so make sure you stay swimming in safe waters as this New Moon kicks off. Mercury has been journeying backwards with The Fishes, and placing clues as to how we should best communicate our feelings at this time since 23 February. While we will see anew coming in here, be sure, anything legally binding or truly needing initiation is not brought to fruition until after Mercury goes Direct 17 March. Even under the Shadow, which will remain until 05 April, you’ll want to be in full awareness of actions that occurred under the retrograde transit.

This New Moon in Pisces precisely begins as a Moon Void of Course equally starts, and as the Moon conjuncts our Sun, this will be the last major aspect it makes before moving into Aries. Therefore, while new ideas and energies may be in the air, not moving forward until after the Moon enters Aries is also favored. Time in reflection is quite recommended all around until our Messenger goes Direct, but especially under a Moon Void of Course, any important decisions should be avoided until it passes. An odd request for a Waxing Phase to begin and not actually initiate, yet as all the planetary force in Pisces have been profoundly speaking, what is in need of further examination here will welcome the action of exploring beliefs and educating one’s self further, as the 21 degree point also asks to do.

Lunar-O-Scope, New Moon in Pisces, 2013
For the collective horoscope, again we offer some simple advice for every sign from the outer vantage point. Remember if you know your Rising Sign (Ascendant), read that passage too, for it typically will apply to your personal charts’ advice. However, it is the awareness and mathematical analysis of the individual birth chart that will point to the accuracy of how the current planetary landscape affects you.

For the true astrology buffs, be sure to check the Pisces House, in particular where the 21-degree Pisces spot in your natal birth chart lives. (A natal birth chart is determined from the time of birth, which allows a more in-depth look to equally see where some pondering is ideally meant to unfold in how the planets uniquely affect you.) Whether the collective or individual vantage point, these are the areas of life that call for you to bring forth initiation and beginnings within the next two weeks to follow. Properly embracing the new and gathering up in these areas (adhering to the Moon Void of Course and MRx delays) until the next Full Moon upon 27 March will plant energies in place for future use.

Aries: Lover of exploration Dear Ram, are you ready to really dive into those inner places in your life where “I Process?” The self-discovery you have already been unfolding here will have you looking forward to even more kinds of self-undoing. The spiritual, subconscious realms, and the psychological make-ups of life continue to chat with you and journey within your own head. Keep on taking the lead, striking up new ideas about how you spend intimate time with spirit and soul.

Taurus: Your friendships have been conversing about change, and now more takes place where “I Socialize.” Groups or causes you’ve been mulling over don’t require your patience any longer. Something you’ve wished for since a child can truly come into manifestation- so listen carefully to your hopes and dreams. Organizations take major focus at this time. Accept that invitation to socialize -aside from the emotional comfort- you’ll gain more mental satisfaction from attending.

Gemini: A buzz of energy surrounds the career and public life- continue to look-out for those changes where “I Structure.” A fantastic time to promote or start a new business- just watch the MRx/Moon VOC warnings. A nice recognition you may have visualized since being quite young can prosper. Your relationship to authority asks for improved communications- as you arrive at an understanding you’ve not been responsible to as old and tired impressions here disappear.

Cancer: You’ve been moved as of late to feel quite imaginative about a new direction you’ll take your philosophies now where “I Believe.” Plan a trip, take one, or find ways to broaden your view of the world at large. Remember your vision of the world as a child- this still wishes to speak with you now. With sensitivity and intuition surrounding you, tune-in to your instinct, and let in some exploration within new educational pursuits that equally serve your spiritual desires.

Leo: Securities and investments have already been communicating that decisions are soon to be made about changes where “I Transform.” You can find smart ways to learn not only yours, but how other people’s money can create wealth for you at present. Somehow, your childhood plays a role in this process as a surge of regeneration and change within your soul’s core completes. Go ahead and feel sexy Lion, as you also tap into sensual desires to feel new in mysterious ways.

Virgo: Toss off the logic Virgin, now is not the time to be shy within your partnerships where “I Relate,” from your romantic ties to business contacts. Connections that have been under review are of special importance to the future, so feel no doubt with any decisions moving forward once MRx concludes. The realms of communications have been speaking intuitively to you about the direction to take, which has something to do with finishing up healing the old wounds here.

Libra: Ready to embrace the opportunity with both arms to bring improvements to your health and all areas where “I Serve?” New beginnings here have already been hinting at the ways you’ll help others and work with them. Thinking about taking on a new routine that you may have wanted to do since you were a kid? Implement it now- it has the means to stick around and continue to work. Energies surrounding pets, also are a pleasant balance request for your Scales.

Scorpio:
Admire what power brings you, and combine that with your impressions from childhood, and you’ll have plenty of it at your fingertips where “I Create.” Excitement and confidence have been revisiting whatever your current projects involve. Trust those feelings to be more playful, and enjoy any contact with children. A “brain child” wishes to continue to captivate your attention now. Take a deserved bow on a center stage, but don’t let your ego take the lead.

Sagittarius:
One of your multi-tasks has seen you doing some pre-Spring cleaning Archer, which has brought upon a fresh sparkle to change-up your environment where “I Nurture.” More than likely, you’ve already been embracing them within the home. Your arrows set their aims to further focus upon some new energy in your family life. Aside from your impressions here from youth- déjà vu and psychic experiences have very important messages for you to receive.

Capricorn: Is it possible to make you any wiser old Goat? Well, you know better than most we never stop learning, and you have been stimulated all too much as of late to improve your mental capacity where “I Communicate.” Go back to laboring ideas from childhood and see how this connects with present ones. Plan a short trip now if you aren’t already on one. As these fresh ways of thinking continue to work hard to reach you, you’ll find rich reward in embracing them.

Aquarius: There are some new values originating that get you in the mood now to take stock of your personal possessions and what “I Have.” New ways to earn your dollars are finding their individual means to reinvent themselves at present. Ponder your values as a child and what these mean to you now. New life seeks to enter your entire sense of security. Make purchases that grant a deeper understanding about what truly matters to you most, which can help heal you.

Pisces:
The “I AM” light is on you Dear Fishes. Exciting new feelings of self-sufficiency have asked you to take the lead in the immediate waters you choose to swim in. While a sympathetic concern is always intense for others, be intuitive first and foremost with yourself. Tap into what still needs healing from the confidence of your youth. The world awaits to see your new mask as you have prepared to reveal inspiring ways to perceive your first impressions and approaches.

Lunar-O-Scope, 25 February

Full Moon in Virgo, 25 February, 3:26pm EST

Releasing Old Wounds

We’ve gathered from the new light in Aquarius to now find completion and release where The Virgin brings a natural and pure feel to your Zodiac Pie.  As the 3rd Full Moon in a row peaks at the 07 degree of the sign, we are asked to step further into another SILENT LISTEN as to what should be releasing from this area of our lives, which has Chiron, our Wounded Healer, right by our side to tap into the core of things that must heal from the deep. Don’t forget the first Mercury offering for review of 2013 is also in motion, which equally calls for a dynamic pull of reflection from the opposing area of the life.
Moon enters Virgo,
1:52am EST 25 February to 8:02am EST 27 February

Our planet of emotion is not always at ease when teaming up with the sign that is logical and discriminating about almost everything life. As the tendency for analysis channels into worry, many times instinct and imagination have no other outlets but to feel quite limited under this passage. However, by engaging in service to others, choosing to focus upon health, cleaning-up and allowing a sense of purity to come into emotional play can be stellar ways to reap success. Virgo Moons feel best when practical needs that result in effective outcomes and studying all the details are met, casting a collective request to become engaged in more reserved feelings that just may exhibit a little shyness.

Full Moon, 25 February, 3:26pm EST, 07 degrees Virgo
The Virgo piece of your personal Zodiac Pie points to where you will feel quite an intensity unfold, as well as the specific area of life to focus upon reflection within for the next two weeks until our next New Moon upon 11 March. The final lunation in a 3-month series since our Full Moon in Cancer 28 December 2012 at the 07 degree, the acknowledgement of taking time in solitude is asked from The Virgin to bring humanity to a deep acceptance of this spiritual need. With the concentration of opposing planetary energy within Pisces, we are asked to plunge into appreciation of what we have within the pure and innocent place of our lives. This allows the equal recognition of all that the opposing spiritual side of life brings the necessary balance to, for the future of mankind completely depends upon it.

For the Collective
We have some interesting aspects affecting this Full Moon. Our emotional attention also focuses upon Chiron, the planet that represents the Wounded Healer within our lives, and where we hold the most of our childhood impressions from a look at any natal birth chart. At present, Chiron is in opposition to our 07 degree Virgo kick off point as it closely conjuncts our Sun at 09 degrees Pisces. This is a powerful pull that asks for a finalization to unfold about what wounds may be present where The Fishes swim within your life, which can emotionally release because you choose to spend time in solitude to address and clear out old pains that have been suppressed within the conscious memory. As Chiron transits within Pisces, there is plenty of feminine integration that is requested of mankind, asking us to get into touch with this side of ourselves and heal whatever wounds may exist from it, no matter what sex we may be. Knowing this is the time in humanity that strongly asks any soul to get into their HEART space, the feminine of Mother EARTH is certainly a great place to start.

Jupiter over at 07 degrees Gemini communicates to both our Sun, and Moon from that 90 degree aspect called a square, which to most astrologers causes conflict, or results in the typical cornered-in sensation. However: squares are not to be feared. The tensions they can cause are necessary, so that new ground can be formulated, for what solid and strong foundation is not made of four squares? This is precisely when the examination of the pain they may be causing, is what brings forward the profound “ah-ha” moments within our loves when the HURT of the TRUTH can set you free. Take a good look at how these mutable energies within Gemini, Virgo and Pisces at the 07 degree point to a new structure forming, one that develops further because we took the time to heal ourselves, and allow change to be ultimately embraced.

Lunar-O-Scope, Full Moon in Virgo 2013
For the collective horoscope, again we offer some simple advice for every sign from the outer vantage point. Remember if you know your Rising Sign (Ascendant), read that passage too, for it typically will apply to your personal charts’ advice. However, it is the awareness and mathematical analysis of the individual birth chart that will point to the accuracy of how the current planetary landscape affects you.

For the true astrology buffs, be sure to check the Virgo House, in particular where the 07-degree Virgo spot in your natal birth chart lives. (A natal birth chart is determined from the time of birth, which allows a more in-depth look to equally see where some pondering is ideally meant to unfold in how the planets uniquely affect you.)

Whether the collective or individual vantage point, these are the areas of life that call for you to bring forth release and conclusions within the next two weeks to follow. Properly embracing letting go in these areas until the next New Moon upon 11 March will make the appropriate space for the new to be planted later.
 
Aries: You feel drawn to let go of worn-out personal habits and health related routines Dear Rams where “I Serve.” It’s imperative you listen up for there is a tired fashion you are being of service to others. Unrest may be present with your co-workers, but let courage take the lead. Pets require your attention, or a choice comes to pass about them. Allow some new ways of abundance to continue to flow from your thought processes, and recognize the wonder to be gained from time in solitude, but not in selfishness.
Taurus: The Bull is thrilled to see an adventure come to a conclusion where “I Create.” Children, the arts or brain-children captivate your attention now.  You’ve been feeling open to love affairs, yet it is best to take a stance and ponder where they fit upon your stage of life, and some curtains may have to close. While you recognize the optimism returning to your sense of value and what you have, remember all connects to how you socialize; as well as what dreams, hopes and wishes you should be focusing upon.

Gemini: Emotions swirl as you arrive at conclusions that pertain to your home and family where “I Nurture.” Don’t logically think that sense of déjà vu is the other side of yourself talking- be sure to listen to the instinctive messages being channeled to you. Your normal routine within your environments is about to change course, and the urge to truly clean up and clear out here begs for the details to align. This brings the full go ahead for those new approaches as all the dynamic turns in your public life soar.

Cancer: An out-dated mental process Dear Crab must be released where “I Communicate.” You instinctively know it’s best not to worry and only have concern, so cozy on up to this shift in thinking. Reflect as well on not being so nit-picky and discriminating here. Think pure and polite, and let your thoughts serve you. Neighbors or siblings can also be of focus. Remember all of the benefits from time in solitude will help change up some new beliefs that wish to find you learning something that soothes you.

Leo: Focus calls to your values, earning power, and what is it all worth with what “I Have.” Time is well spent reclaiming and reviewing your sense of security. Take a hearty look at possessions, swallow up the pride, and let go so new values have proper room to grow later. Plenty of action speaks about upcoming transformations and what future moves will happen to your wealth. Figure out what pieces of the puzzle are missing by appreciating the fortunate energy where you socialize, hope dream, and wish.

Virgo: Don’t shy away from this magical spotlight of release where “I AM!” Let go of old approaches and first impressions in life that don’t truly serve you. Your innate humility takes this more sensitive time for self without raising the ego bar too high. You shouldn’t doubt the emotions you feel here now, but you can let the world say goodbye to that tired mask you’ve been wearing. With the excitement booming in your career and public life, be sure to understand the partnerships in your life who ask to be a part of it.

Libra: The inner layers of your Scales look for more solitary time to even it all out where “I Process.” Your psyche vibrantly releases internal messages from matters concerning the subconscious, where resolve is seen. Recording your dreams brings balance to your waking world when you document and decode them. Take this and see what further kinds of beliefs can abundantly find you, which equally teaches you something about what you are meant to do to serve the world better that ever before.

Scorpio: Take a pure look at routines within your friendships and organizations where “I Socialize.” What doesn’t serve you here asks to be let go. Reflect upon the roles you play in your groups, and your wishes here are sure to blossom later on. Ponder deep within hopes for the future, and dream well. Accept that unexpected invitation from a friend- it’s part of the larger picture to flourish. Strength steps in from taking time to invest in your creativity right now as well, which will transform you from the core.

Sagittarius: Career matters ask you to look for conclusions to be made on where it is all going were “I Structure.” Transition and reflection is currently unfolding within your purpose, mission, and reputation. Make logical reassessments here now to serve you best. That toy with authority brings a better understanding to your partnerships. Meanwhile, know where you nurture your environments and home life dynamically are seeking their own courses of change, and compassion will sooth the waters here.

Capricorn: Your philosophical outlooks are in review and which ones serve you best for the long-term where “I Believe.” An important trip finishes now, or you reflect upon past ones. An urge to grow and learn somehow speaks as idealism is surely by your side, so let old patterns go here. It is a great time to study or re-examine something you’ve already learned. As growth equally streams from your ability to serve the world, you find ways to communicate that make sure the bright side is what you choose to see.

Aquarius:
Wealth and financial matter ask for reflection and revisions where “I Transform.” Not enough intimacy in a personal relationship? This passage reflects upon bringing in a true regenerative process here, for this is no time to remain fixed in resistance. It’s time to totally break on through to the other side as your entire core is up for peeling away the layers- which happens easily when you enjoy your creative nature and remember what it is all truly worth by giving gratitude to what you already have.

Pisces: Those closest to you -personal or business- captivate your attention where “I Relate.” You’ll innately sense the release and conclusion here. As people logically come and go, your intuition serves you to recognize these kinds of changes are all part of that vast ocean of choices you swim in. As all kinds of new energies and equal changes surround your immediate sense of self, these are able to find strength by connecting further where you nurture your life as the home and family can teach you plenty.

Mercury Retrograde in Pisces: 23 Feb to 17 March 2013

Image: Unification Family

Now let’s get something straight right away. You’ll notice FEAR cannot be spelled at all from MERCURY RETROGRADE. This passage is one of the most misrepresented in astrology, in where people are generally taught to expect “gloom and doom.”  Allow the wisdoms of Numerology and Lexigrams to ease your mind about this astrological phenomena, and how to shift any fear of it to that of knowing your free will has the same amount of control under it as it does at any other time of the year.

If one really understands that our ‘As Above, So Below’ is completely set up in such a divine order -when our Messenger planet takes a little rewind about 3 times per year for an approximate 3 week duration- this is the equivalent to the same amount of time we spend restoring our bodies every night. As one innately opens the mind to associate this period with as much importance as it is to sleep daily, they can embrace the opportunity it offers us to reset our souls in all the REDO and GREAT CORE CURE it can profoundly provide.

The first Mercury Retrograde of 2013 begins 23 February, and we are asked to apply the “rules of retrograde” until the 17 March. Yes, there are definitely guidelines that are wise to follow during this transit, and words that begin with RE are a huge part of them. Adhere to them, and anyone can reap rich rewards over the time that “MRx” brings into all of our personal and collective experiences. Knowing Mercury is our planet guiding our communication, movement, thinking, mentality and all exchanges of information -and the celestial vessel who is closest to us here on earth- when he isn’t looking where he is going, we all get a little off beat to say the least. So how are we best to REadjust it all with REsponse verses REaction?

Mercury Retrograde and Numerology
The very word RETROGRADE (any planet’s reverse movement which results in an opposite direction to that of the Earth’s orbit around the Sun, or of the Moon around the Earth) itself carries a Name Expression of the 35’s Partnerships. Said the Chaldeans of the 35: “This compound number vibrates, in a strange way, to a unique kind of power, based on compassion and unselfishness, with the ability to help others, but not always the Self. 35 is full of contradictions. It warns of dangers, disappointments, and failure, especially regarding the ambitions, brought about through bad advice, and association.” Interesting comparison to what any planet’s retrograde passage is expected to bring to our lives. As any planet offers up their backwards time -if we carefully recognize that which not meant be in forward motion but rather in true examination of what has already recently transpired-  one will find they tap into that compassion and unselfishness more, and will avoid the contradictions, dangers and failure.

The singular 8 also casts it’s wise light of advice under retrograde: slow down, regain your stability, utilize patience, learn from the experiences, and be ultimately responsible. Guess what planet numerologically is in charge of retrograde through the 8 here? Our Karmic Adjustor Saturn. This is certainly why any retrograde is so important to note- for if you do not listen to its’ call, Saturn is all too good at tossing out another lesson for anyone to pay attention to until they get it. Ever not heed what a paternal figure (especially the fatherly one) asks? This is the deep clue as to why “MRx” is given the complete “bad rap” to those unawares, and will create restrictions and limitations.

When you add MERCURY to the RETROGRADE mix, we have a total Name Expression of the 13’s Regeneration – Change. Again, this is not a number to be feared nor underestimate. What amazing results are able to be anyone’s reality when the 13 is fully comprehended: “13 is not an unlucky number, as many people believe. The ancients claimed that he who understands how to use the number 13 will be given power and dominion. The symbol of the 13 is a skeleton, or death, with a scythe, reaping down men in a field of new-grown grass, where young faces and heads appear to be thrusting through the ground and emerging on all sides. 13 is a number of upheaval, so that new ground may be broken. It’s associated with power, which, if used for selfish purposes, will bring destruction upon itself. There is a warning of the unknown and the unexpected. Adapting to change gracefully will bring out the strength of the 13 vibration, and decrease any potential for the negative. 13 is associated with genius- also with explorers, breaking the orthodox and new discoveries of all kinds.”

Sound like the energy we are used to when we are hanging out in our “RE rules” of MERCURY RETROGRADE?  Aside from REgeneration, take any word that begins with RE and one can be sure to find courses of action under this passage that relate to them. REview, REdo, REfresh, REpair, REset, REflect, REorganize, REtreat, REvisit…. The list goes on and on, of which the most important is to always REst and RElax under “MRx.” One fantastic way to absorb the energy of MRx is to reach back into old, unfinished business and creative projects wherein this time spent is always known to produce powerful results that are nothing short of pure genius with the break-throughs and innovations when time spent in the REstructuring works for you.

The Chaldeans were spot-on in knowing the Name Expression of MRx is not only about the 13’s REgeneration, but that of CHANGE. How many times do you need Plans B, C, D or even E in order when those unexpected things show up under MRx? REmember under any MRx we are digging up our old earth, which always is in need of a bit of TLC attention in the first place. It is wonderful to know that upheaval is supposed to happen, so that we can get better in touch with our lives. We are preparing under any MRx passage, to break new ground once it has concluded. But the new can never be planted for success in a garden full of weeds.

Weeding our gardens means change must be accepted as a part of the process. As Charles Darwin, once said, “It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.” So too, is this statement ever so true to better grasp how to have REsolve under MRx. When one expects change, and does not resist it, no matter what kind of challenge it may test one with, therein lies the key to surviving MRx with ease and grace. If we choose to view MRx as a gift, it most certainly will REflect that outcome for anyone.

Mercury Retrograde and Lexigrams
The ever-fascinating wonders of Lexigrams –the poetic phrasing of the anagrams that can be derived from any word, name or title to spell out the truth- on MERCURY RETROGRADE are amazing at helping us better understand what to do under this transit. More clues are right in front of us as to how this vital request from above wishes to be viewed, actually enjoyed, and no longer feared.

How will this review and redo passage affect your life? If you know your natal chart, check out where the 19 to 05 degree Pisces slice of life falls. This will be the area that requests reassessment and where your energy is best place to anticipate where the MRx changes will unfold the most. Equally via the collective perspective, the relationship of Pisces to your Sun Sign will also offer up loads of wisdom that can aid in the affirmation of your planetary picture.

The Approach to our first MRx of 2013 began 09 February, when Mercury was last at 05 degrees Pisces, the very degree he will return to. Under the Approach, we always see the things associated with what will be further re-examined under the Retrograde passage itself start to surface. The Shadow will conclude 06 April, when Mercury, while moving forward once more will return to the 19 degree Pisces mark. Under the Shadow, anything you might have had to initiate by default under the MRx will see the opportunity to correct and iron out the details that were overlooked. As human error is the highest under this passage, it is critical the decisions we choose to make under it.

REmember the DO’s and DON’TS!
REmain in the eye of any apparent storm around you…
These handy tips can help bring ease over this upcoming period to allow personal success to be reaped!

DO:
*Expect CHANGE: in travel, routines, communications & schedules to occur suddenly
*Give yourself extra time to get where you’re going
*Spend time in the RE’s: Relax, Revisit, Reflect, Redo, REcharge!
*Have Plan B (and Plan C, D or E if necessary) ready to go
*Gravitate to REsponding vs. REacting!

DON’T:
*“Freak out” when changes come up
*Rush: speaking, driving, doing anything!
*Sign important documents

NEW Moon in Aquarius,  10 February,  2:20am EST

Gathering Friendly Truth

Ego is not part of the humanitarian picture as we get smart and initiate emotional energy in the sign that loves to bring us closer to the friendships within our life. As our friends in the East celebrate The Year of the Snake, it’s time for another New Moon in Aquarius, as another waxing period of gathering begins. Where can some love of mankind coupled with a progressive and ingenious energy transform all kinds of fresh feelings within you in the next two weeks?

Moon enters Aquarius, 2:16pm EST 08 February to 4:20pm EST 10 February
Aquarius passages are the perfect time within our winter’s wisdom to lock into some more clues that ground us firmly to the season at hand. This recognition rewards us later with the keys to our soon to be Spring, now only 5 weeks away. Aquarius never wishes for the ego to focus on the dread of winter, but discover within its’ retreat, the joys of where the intellect can take you on its journey. As our Lunar Lady renews in the inventive energies of The Water Bearer -the sign that brings new life to everything- it is a great time to prophesize and put forth ideas we wish to implement and watch develop for the entire year ahead.

New Moon, 10 February 2:20am EST 21 degrees Aquarius

This is truly is a humanitarian moon on multitudes of levels. Again we see another waxing phase begin at the 21st degree of the sign, wherein Jupiter through the singular 3 here is asking yet again for the truth to be told, something that Aquarius equally finds by being friendly to mankind. This further opens up the door to the key that is part of EVOLUTION moving forward, and that is the know of LOVE. This love of the truth that the 21’s ‘The Crown of the Magi’ promises, equally understands that the soul’s testing is over. The more we assimilate the love of truth into our beings, the more suffering ceases to exist.
Our Moon Void of Course also begins in sync with the New Moon, for our Moon conjunct Sun is the last major aspect it makes before moving into Pisces. While reflection and considerate are favored, be sure to not move forward with future intentions for this waxing phase until after 4:20pm EST 10 February.

For the Collective
Another quality of Aquarius is tapping into prophecy, which equally is intensified as The Chinese Year of the Water Snake also now begins. The Snake is always known for its’ intuition, and in a Water elemental year, this will be heightened tenfold where psychic energies will be all the more available for the collective to better understand. Like Aquarians, Snakes are intellectual thinkers that can give splendid advice. Both equally possess a reserved and controlling nature that engages their mental capacities to prefer working out solutions and bringing forward progress, coupled with an intrigue for the esoteric and spiritual practices for the human and soul cause.

There is a true emotional structure being set into motion upon this lunation as well. As we find most of our planets aside from Jupiter in the second half of the Zodiac with a concentration in Aquarius and Pisces, this New Moon directly squares off to our North and South Node, at 21 degrees Scorpio and Taurus, respectively. These fixed energies seek to lock in a new understanding of truth within our lives. As the North Node indicates the area of life to place attention on emotional responsibility -so that the South Node can easily bring in balance from the opposite area- you’ll find a transformation occurs as a deeper perception of what you previously knew unfolds. As the current transiting Nodes provide structure to this New Moon, get ready to not resist the truth that wishes to unveil itself to you.

Lunar-O-Scope, New Moon in Aquarius, 2013
For the collective horoscope, again we offer some simple advice for every sign from the outer vantage point. Remember if you know your Rising Sign (Ascendant), read that passage too, for it typically will apply to your personal charts’ advice. However, it is the awareness and mathematical analysis of the individual birth chart that will point to the accuracy of how the current planetary landscape affects you.

The Year of the Water Snake 2013

We collectively celebrate the Chinese New Year on the Aquarius New Moon 10 February 2013: The Year of the Snake/Water Year. The Chinese Zodiac can lend anyone valuable insight into their personality and natural tendencies, further enhancing what our Western Zodiac is able to provide.

ASTROLOGY: THE EAST MEETS WEST
The intricate link that is the common ground of understanding to how the East and West relate is the transit of Jupiter -which takes approximately one year to pass through any Zodiac sign- resulting in a 12 year cycle to complete the entire Zodiac Wheel. Jupiter is the planet that represents where typically -if a sense of control and awareness are present- good luck, fortune, prosperity, growth and optimism will flow freely within the life as one examines the classic tropical astrology birth chart. From the East’s perception, during the current animal year that always begins upon an Aquarian New Moon until the next lunar pass of it, we will see the return of Jupiter to the zodiac sign it correlates to in the West’s astrology chart.

Our friends in the East take their Zodiac and equally separate it into 12 signs as does Western Astrology. Here in the West it takes only one year to represent all 12 signs on our Zodiac wheel as our Sun passes through them month to month, relating to our change of seasons through cardinal, fixed and mutable energies represented within the elements of fire, earth, air and water. Our friends in the East take 60 years to complete a full cycle, as each animal every 12 years is depicted through 5 different elemental years of earth, metal, water, wood, and fire. Both the West and East honor the signs being masculine/yang or feminine/yin energy as well.

ENTER THE SNAKE
The Snake –a yin fire animal- comes into Zodiac play for us for the first time since 1953-54 in a Water elemental year. Our last Snake year was 2001-02, where it was in a metal guided energy for the passage. While we are starting off 2013-14’s Year of the Water Snake under Jupiter in Gemini, by the early summer Jupiter enters Cancer, which is the transit associated with how we are best to identify what will transpire under the influence of the Snake.

Snakes in the West are often professed to be dangerous, creepy and generally feared. This is not the case in the East. The Snake holds deep mystical symbolism and high esteem as an energy that helps one better understand the process of transformation along their spiritual journey in life. Honored as a source of sacredness, beauty and wisdom, snakes should not be underestimated in their somnolent and passive appearance. With minds that penetrate deeply, they possess an innate ability to listen and give rich advice, seeing beyond the surface and can perceive and discover all kinds of hidden truths. Typically curious, intelligent and reflective, Snakes are quite known to appreciate what the unknown can teach to them, and thoroughly enjoy sharing these secrets and any good advice with others.

NUMEROLOGY AND THE SNAKE
Now the collective experiences the 6th year within a 9 (2008 to 2016) and 12-year cycle (Year of the Rat, 2008 to Year of the Pig, 2019) where the seeds planted in 2008 are seeing a state of balance returning after all of 2012’s permanent changes. After the midway point of the current collective 9 yr span has passed, we also have now reached the halfway mark around the Chinese Zodiac Wheel, as a transformative year speaks before the next half begins in 2014.

Strengthening compassion and understanding within our relationships and especially family ties throughout the present year aides in the eventual collective harvest, just a couple more years further down the road in 2015. With Venus guiding the singular 6’s energy over 2013, there is plenty of harmony, contemplation, peace and justice to be found amongst the Snakes’ urges for deep philosophical ponderings which dive into morality. 2013 marks the time where seeing both sides of the issues at hand make for brilliant perceptions to be discovered, as mankind is wise to step into his heart space to better comprehend his reason for being here at this time upon the earth.

THE WATER SNAKE 2013
The collective can expect this to be a time of karmic experiences offering up regeneration and change wherein balance is restored from them. Honest acts are rewarded, while those handling hurtful secrets will find them being exposed. Attention placed upon self-renewal is favored, and the adaptation to the attitude of grace under any kind of pressure will prevail over anxious reactions. Working efficiently and economically brings serenity, for duplicity is present for this passage, and remembering to keep an eye on every detail while taking less gambles brings buoyancy in financial dealings. An intuitive intelligence is easily available to anyone willing to better understand the soul’s process and purpose. Matters of morality strongly become a focal point, as questions get asked and the answers appear to further understanding for humanity. It is an auspicious year within The Water Snake for the arts to especially nurture these ideals and create works that provide profound insight for the human cause.

Life in a Water Snake Year evokes the nature of an instinctive presence that taps us into an imaginative mood for the collective. Especially once Jupiter enters Cancer in early July, we will have 3 outer planets in water signs. Upon 17 July as Jupiter in Cancer reaches 04 degrees, it makes a Grand Trine to Saturn at 04 degrees Scorpio and Neptune at 04 degrees Pisces. At this 04 degree mark, be ready for innovative, original, and break-through sensations to stream into where your water sign points align in the Zodiac Pie. While Neptune will hold back in the early degrees of Pisces, Jupiter and Saturn meet up later upon 12 December at 18 degrees for another exact trine between Cancer and Scorpio, drawing upon more conclusions that propel us to hone in further upon spiritual means over materialistic gains driven by ego.

These planetary meet-ups promise to offer the potential for the collective to get happy about breaking through to a deep and rich inspiration that will aide in awakening to further truths that can steady success, as long as eyes are open and responsible to ways that are wise and just. With the Snake representing Yin Fire energy, what transpires over the year ahead brings forth profound reflection, coupled with a dynamic sympathetic understanding about our lives. Heralding transformation within our state of feeling, we can unite what has been divided in our outer world for far too long in order to continue living life the way it can be embraced with mysticism and enthusiasm as our guiding lights.

The Snake is the considered an extremely karmic Chinese animal and holds intense symbolism upon their Zodiac Wheel. They firmly believe that those born in a Snake year, incarnate to balance out whatever past life karma is left unsettled to free the soul. Snakes are easy to handle problems that may come their way, and are rare to subscribe to letting whatever they must overcome get them down.  Innate advice givers -but not always the ones to easily receive it- these Spirits are here to generously help others in their deep thinking and perceptive ways. When they follow the path of warmth, comforting others, and protection, they find love and respect; while if they slither towards actions in life that breed suspicion, vengeful or crafty results, they find cruelty and intolerance instead. So too, will these principles exist and persist within this Chinese Zodiac Year, so remember the wiser ways of the Snake and one will prevail.

LEXIGRAMS AND THE SNAKE
As we look to add some Lexigram insight as we examine the very title of ‘THE YEAR OF THE WATER SNAKE’ we find, uncannily enough, the truth can be spelled out from the very letters composing it. In the simplicity of the SNAKE alone, it is wise to not gravitate to actions that result in being a SNEAK in the year ahead, for then one will miss the gifts that this year is meant to bestow upon those that take up in matters of the HEART, which reflects in further healing for our dear EARTH.

DID YOU KNOW??? SNAKE TRIVA!

Spotting A Snake
You are in the company of a Snake when you see an elegant, profound, sophisticated, and sensual spirit that efficiency shows that life is to be valued by living every day in contemplation that leads to more self-awareness.

The Typical Snake
Unlike the “scary” norm, a person born to this year: is subtle, is at times seductive, enjoys time in analysis, makes their home their favorite place so they can imagine and remain in peace, excels at adaptation, exudes intensity and passion, prefers to work efficiently so they can have time to relax, possesses an innate understanding of morality, dislikes fake anything- seeing through all that is not genuine, avoids lending money or dealing with superficial people.

Snakes and Yin Fire Energy
The internal feminine combines with the spirit and inspiration, resulting in the excitement that these natives have about offering up uncanny advice. The energy of fire allows for an attractive urge to be eager to please others within the nurturing Yin. A Snake can become unbalanced when they do not find themselves to be motivated- without any moral or material inspiration, they coil up into a reflective state that others view as lazy, and withdrawal from the world.

Snake Years in History
The Snake’s energy marks a universal time for expansion upon our ability to perceive what cannot be seen alongside nurturing what we already have with efficiency. Financial matters of all kinds but especially those surrounding food, real estate and charities prosper when scrutiny and honesty are respected. Those holding to secrets that are in harmful intentions will become exposed, wherein more often than not, even though the TRUTH will HURT, it will bring forward an ultimate transformation to set one free. A dynamic year for the metaphysical fields and artistic pleasures, those who seek to give sound advice for humanity’s prosperity, benefit and morality are the victors.

1905, 1917, 1929, 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, all saw growth and forceful changes within these areas on a global level, as will 2013, as along as intuition is carefully listened to with the Water energy guiding this particular year.

CHINESE ZODIAC FUN FACTS
*The Chinese New Year is always celebrated upon an Aquarian New Moon here in the West, as it yearly cycle ends upon the next one in the following year.

*Legend has it how the Chinese Zodiac Wheel order formed is that the Rat hitched a ride on the Ox who didn’t originally intend to become the second animal in line, when Buddha challenged the animals to a race to win a position on the Chinese Zodiac calendar. The least competitive of all the animals (the dog enjoyed a bath along the way, while the pig decided to make sure he was full and even napped) fell into place to complete the 12 Animal Wheel.

*At the ages of 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 82, 94, 106, typically one experiences a very positive year as their animal returns. Coinciding with West’s planet of luck, Jupiter, returns to its’ natal point also every 12 yrs.

*At 60, the Chinese believe one’s greatest wisdom begins to unfold as one full cycle of their wheel concludes. Simultaneously in the West, the 2nd Saturn Return, in agreement with this passage also marks the soul being released into the finest period of self -expression and inner power after learning our most important life’s lessons over the previous 59.

“Self-love for ever creeps out, like a snake, to sting anything which happens to stumble upon it.” ~George Byron
