2022’s SECOND NEW MOON!

Surprising Shifts for Our EARTH HEART Truth

New Moon in Aquarius

12:46amEST, 01 February, Let’s Begin & Initiate

This second waxing phase for 2022 arrives to initiate within the sign that consciously aims for truth and knowledge as we receive impressions, which enriches them via one’s ability to embrace humane and progressive intentions with a well-developed imagination upon our earthly plane. Our New Moon at 12 degrees Aquarius is the next seeking to understand moment of the Universal New Year, as it surprisingly continues the emotional activation of 2022’s Mastering The Value of Compassion human experience.

LunarOScopes, 27 January New Moon, Let’s Begin

Posted on January 21, 2017 by Sharita Star

Your Feelings Are Powerful Allies

We intentionally create our lives through what we feel, which in turn, directly affects our thoughts as The Law of Attraction promises. Lunar energy from above is astrologically in charge of how the messages of our human emotions play out in precise timing, always offering us the chance to evolve down here below. As we honor our emotions, we can make them powerful allies in our lives- verses ignoring the truth, missing our opportunities, and neglecting to heal whatever they ask us to focus on.

Each month, a New Moon opens a waxing phase of initiating energy favoring creation until we reach the Full Moon, opening up a waning phase allowing for natural correction, reflection and release. LunarOScopes capture the forecast of these cycles indicating what is meant to begin or conclude, timing when and what specific area of life our Sun Sign benefits by applying our focus through feeling.

New Moon in Aquarius, 7:07pmEST 27 January, Let’s Begin & Initiate
Waxing Phases favor actions involving planting anew and moving forward, as energy increases throughout one half of your Zodiac Pie from 08 degrees Aquarius until the next Full Moon & Lunar Eclipse at 22 degrees Leo 10 February 2017.

Posted on February 16, 2015 by Sharita Star

New Moon in Aquarius 18 February
Where Will You Feel Initiations & Fresh Starts?

What You Are Feeling? Know Your Point of Attraction
The Law of Attraction promises if you are not feeling good, you won’t think all too well either to be able to manifest the life you wish to see through belief. Our Lunar Lady is astrologically in charge from up above of the possibilities our human emotions and feelings will channel down here below, providing us with the perfect advice to follow.

Mercury Retrograde is now over and it’s Shadow passage remains. This is the time that it will take our Messenger to retrace the very same degrees he just backtracked through 21 January to 11 February. Whatever we may have had to decide upon for the future, now has the opportunity to “iron out the kinks” that may have gotten wrinkled into our retrograde fabrics as life rerouted and changed during the previous weeks. It is astrologically safe to move forward in life under the Shadow, however, crossing our T’s and dotting our I’s is still highly favored concerning the critical choices we are making for our future.

What’s Your Sun Sign?
The simplicity of your natal sun sign is a marvelous starting point to align peace of mind about what is naturally attracting and releasing within your life lunar month to lunar month.

Other Need To Knows About What Febuary’s New Moon Means For You

Moon enters Aquarius How Our Feelings Become Humane
16 February, 7:13pm EST to 18 February, 6:47pm EST
Engage: sincerity, logic, independence, genius, progress, friendliness, altruism
Avoid: reservation, obstinacy, inefficiency, erratic behavior, indifference, detachment

New Moon When Our Feelings Find Initiation
18 February, 6:47pm EST, 29 degrees Aquarius
Consciously Aim For: Truth & Knowledge
Waxing Phase: 29 degrees Aquarius to 14 degrees Virgo
Energy initiates and builds within this half of your Zodiac Pie throughout 05 March.

29 degree point lunation’s are always ones that should be carefully monitored for any pressure within our life that will require our grace to manage our emotional responses successfully. As we experience this 2nd New Moon in Aquarius within 2015, it is a “tipping point” of both our Sun and Moon about to enter Pisces, literally, only 3 minutes beforehand. Mars as well is in a semi-sextile to this New Moon, at 29 degrees Pisces before entering Aries on the 19th. When any planet from above is about to enter the next sign, plenty of energy gets lit up at the 29th degree and we tend to be profoundly filled with feeling as emotional changes stir within us calling for change as we soon see rebirth at 0 once again.

In equal celebration from our friends in the West, this 2nd Aquarian New Moon begins The Chinese New Year of the Sheep/Goat, Wood Year. This year’s wisdom tones down the spirited calling from the recent year of The Horse, where many got “spooked” if they did not know how to handle the innate energy that asked for reverence, dignity and patience throughout the course of 2014’s cycle. During this cycle, we find a very sensitive nature available to the collective that supports the genuine desires of artistic pursuits, along with growth, renewal and innovation across the board. Exercising compassion is equally required to thrive within the Wood Sheep/Goat year -which when coupled with 2015 equals 8 numerological energy- calls upon responsibility to align balance back into in the life.

Lunar-O-Scope, 10 February 2013

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.

For the true astrology buffs, be sure to check the Aquarius House, in particular where the 21-degree Aquarius 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 until the next Full Moon upon 25 February will plant energies in place for future use.

Aries: New pals await where “I Socialize!” Groups or causes equally welcome your pioneering spirit, who has Uranus streaming those break through ideas to you clearly. While you are never shy, you’ll find you can talk to just about anyone. Should a social invitation show up you weren’t expecting, attending it is of great importance for the future. As you continue to see how much core transformation is working, your earning power and value system equally sees the benefits.

Taurus: Fresh growth now emerges where “I Structure” in the career and public life for you. Promote or birth a new business, for recognition comes your way if you’ve done your proper legwork to receive it. Find a friendlier way to view authority figures.

Cancer: If you’ve been worried about your securities and investments, it’s time to make decisions where “I Transform.” Remember Mercury starts Retrograding on 23 February. Look out for found money or ways other people’s money can help you. A new view on sexuality wishes to speak with you. Let out a regeneration from the core, for this works with the creative calling you must listen to right now, that opens the doors to new found social scenes to express it within.

Leo: It’s your month to place focus upon where “I Relate” and think about those intimate partnerships. From romantic ties to business contacts, there are a many new blessings about to shower within your closest relationships. Legal bindings here are equally favored to flourish far into the future, just make sure everything is signed before 23 February. The attention upon where you nurture is paying off so that you will naturally shine in your career and public life.

Virgo: True to your natural self, you’ll cherish bringing improvements to where “I Serve” Dear Virgins. Look around to the workplace and see what is meant to reform and improve, especially with co-workers. Implement a new routine, or take on some better habits concerning your health. New furry friends may seek you as their master. As you keep up the hard work where you communicate, those beliefs seem to magically shift and serve you like never before.

Libra: You shine with your innate balance upon the stage where “I Create!” Excitement and confidence surround new projects, and original ones inspire you. Playful interaction with children is favored, whether they are your own offspring or “brain children.” A new love affair may birth something you’ve not expected up till now. Yes, there is extra effort required for earning power and values right now, but these bring in a welcomed regeneration soon enough to your wealth.

Scorpio: The house needs some cleaning Scorpio, as you also put forth some new ground rules within your home environment where “I Nurture.” An innovative energy requests you rejuvenate ties with your family life. Old judgments no longer can be tolerated in this fresh friendly space. Déjà vu will speak to you, so listen carefully. As you handle Saturns’ changes, these emotionally shape a new you to be seen by the world, allowing your partnerships to truly soar.

Sagittarius: If you’ve been thinking about sending off your arrow to improve your thinking and mentality Archer, go ahead and aim high where “I Communicate!” New ways of the minds’ channeling has you feeling like a genius. You’re probably also thinking about travel as usual, and if you’re not already on a short trip, plan another one. Siblings or neighbors are friendly. Remember the time you spend in solitude grants more keys to how to serve the world better.

Capricorn: You enjoy understanding value old Goat, and you are in the mood to take stock of your own personal possessions with what “I Have.” Something new is in the works about the way you earn your dollars. Take this time to visit your sense of security, and try something original to improve upon it. There may be a new purchase, but be sure it holds its’ worth for long-term. As you continue to closely examine your social life, this opens more ease and flow where you create.

Aquarius: No time to resist or detach, for the world is ready to see you a bit differently, and take on a new way to receive your first impressions of all that “I AM.” Be ready to get intimate with some self-focus and attention to your approaches.

The spiritual, subconscious realms, and the psychological make-up of life ask for a solitary journey. You must be responsible now to changing your beliefs, which makes you communicate oh so much better.

The Year of the Water Snake 2013

Posted on February 4, 2013 by Sharita Star

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.

THE YEAR OF THE WATER SNAKE

AS WE SEE TO THE EARTH’S FATE, YES WE SEE AN ERA TO RENEW THE HEART AS WE ROTATE

AS A TWO-O-O-ONE SNAKE YEAR ENTER, NEW YORK WAS SET TO SEE TWO NEW YORK TOWERS SEE A TERROR SHATTER HATE FATE THAT REAWAKEN THE HEART

AS WE ASK WHY, WE SEE THE NEATEST ANSWER THAT REST NEAR THE KNOW THAT THE NOW THE KEYNOTE TO HOW WE OWN TO KNOWETH THE WON

YES YES YES EARNEST WORK NEAR THE ARTS ARE SO SET TO SOAR EONS ON AS WE TRANSFER TO WORK THAT REAWAKENS THE HEART, WE RETREAT TO RESTORE AS WE RESET FANTASY EYES

WE ARE SET TO SEE FARTHER AWAY THAN WE KNOW OF NOW, NEAR THE FARAWAY ETHERS WE ARE TO NETWORK TO THE HEART, AN EASY WAY SHOWN NOW HOW TO SHARE ON THE EARTH

THE EATS ON THE EARTH ARE NEAR RENEWS: WHAT’S FAKE HAS NO FANS, AS THOSE WHO ARE AWARE THAT WANT TO EAT WHAT’S WORTHY SEE SAFER WAYS AWAKEN

THOSE SWANKY TAKERS ON SNEAKY THRONES OF FEAR NEAR FAKE HEARTS ARE SET TO SEE A WEAKER FATE TO FOSTER, TO SHATTER THEIR HASTY HATE TOWER TO TANK

THOSE ON THRONES OF HONESTY ARE THE HERO STARS SO SET TO SEE ANOTHER SWEETER ERA START

THOSE NEAR THANKS ARE TO SEE A HEFTY WARRANTY THAT SHOW THE HEART WAY WORKS

FASTEN TO ENTER THE HEART REFEREE WAY TO REWAKEN, TO TOAST TO THE EARTH’S REASON

YES WE ARE NEAR THE FOREWARN TO FORESEE THE WETTEST WATER WEATHER THREATS OFTEN NEAR THE NORTHWEST, THE NORTHEAST, AREAS NEAR NEW YORK- THEREFORE THESE AREAS REAWAKEN FAST- YES AREAS NEAR THE SEA AREAS ARE SEEN TO WASH AWAY

OTHER AREAS ON EARTH SEE THE HARSHEST HOTTEST WEATHER SEASON

YET ANYWHERE AS WE SEE HOW A WORRY FREE HEART STATE WARRANTS A SOFTER RESONATE THAN EARNS WORTH, WE KNOW WE ARE FORSAKEN AS WE OWN NO FEARS NOW AS EARTH HEROS

AS ONE EARNS THE TONES OF THE SNAKE, THEY EARN THE TOKEN NOTES TO SOAR AS THE YEAR OF THE HORSE ENTERS.

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

The YEAR OF THE WATER DRAGON, 2012-13

Posted on January 22, 2012 by Sharita Star

THE YEAR OF
THE WATER DRAGON

23 January 2012
to
10 February 2013

We collectively celebrate the Chinese New Year on 23 January 2012: The Year of the Dragon/Water Year. The Chinese Zodiac can lend anyone insight into their personality and natural tendencies, like our Western Zodiac can provide. Our friends in the West take their Zodiac and divide it into 12 signs as does Western Astrology, yet one animal sign influences an entire year verses one month.The intricate link in understanding the common ground of these two systems is the transits of Jupiter, which take approximately one year to transit through one Zodiac sign in the West. Here in the West it only takes that same years’ time to represent all 12 signs on our Zodiac wheel, while 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.

Thinking big and promoting optimism will be rewarded in 2012, as the collective can expect this to be a time of dramatic flare, spectacular events, and an auspicious year to begin anything anew within. The energy of being bold and daring is favored to stimulate fortunate outcomes in new adventures of any kind, from business to marriage. The most outlandish, eccentric, original and different ideas will be rewarded as the months within 2012 unfold.

Now the collective experiences the 5th year within a 9 and 12-year cycle, where the seeds planted in 2008 are seeing some true blossoming and complete currents of change to eventually reap a harvest, just a couple more years further down the road. With Mercury guiding the singular 5’s energy over 2012, there is plenty of movement, risk-taking, versatility and communication to be found amongst the Dragons’ urges for the magnificent. 2012 marks the time where never seen before ideas will bring the masses together in a more unified understanding of who we are as part of the wholeness of humanity.

Grasping some true Lexigram wisdom when embracing the MAGNIFICENT plays a important role in what 2012 can hold for anyone, as we poetically phrase the anagrams we can derive from it. What joy can be found when I AM IN A FINE MAGIC GAIN IN A MAIN TIME TEAM. Or realizing I AM A ENIGMA MAGNET, INFECTING AN INFINITE ENTICING AGE. If we are to adapt smoothly to what exciting and irresistible energy the Dragon is here to share with us -especially within the added intuition of the Water Year- we are best to hone in upon our own sense of psychic ability when it comes to quick change within our lives to find our necessary answers.

All is set to come alive in our outside world and community life in a Water Dragon Year as we allow our diplomacy, compassion and idealism to tackle social situations requiring resolve. The Dragon asks that we awaken a visionary, intelligent and scrupulous instinct within ourselves. Once more under the Water influenced year, being the eye of any apparent storm is key to knowing how to handle a Dragon’s natural excessive energies. With the Dragon representing Yang Wood energy, what transpires over the year ahead brings forth profound success or failure, depending upon the genuine intention behind initiations.

The Dragon is the only Chinese animal that is from myth upon their Zodiac Wheel. However, they firmly believe that this symbol is the most powerful of all, and when one is born in a Dragon year, there is much fortune, money and luck to be found all along the life. Even in the midst of mistakes along the way, Dragons are well known to always still come out of the most pressing situations still smiling. So chin up to any 2012 gloom and doomers: while it is best to be prepared for adventurous change, wearing a SMILE will most certainly go for MILES in this Dragon Year ahead.

DID YOU KNOW??? DRAGON TRIVIA

*They are a Dragon!
When you see an enthusiastic, successful, persuasive and strong spirit that eagerly shows that life is to be savored by living every day as if it where your very last.

*The Typical Dragon
IS frank, at times demanding, enjoys starting things they may not always finish, makes their home wherever they are, excels at problem solving, exudes self-confidence, prefers to take it as it comes verses a routine, possesses an innate sincerity, dislikes waiting for anything, avoids feeling dissatisfied and discontented.

*Dragons & Yang Wood Energy
The external masculine represents the leading role and gravitates to activity, sociability, passion and efficiency. The symbol of wood allows for an ambivalent and dual nature to emerge. The energy of the Dragon can become unbalanced when strong emotions overtake them- turning kindness to anger, and their natural exuberance to vulnerability.

*DRAGON YEARS in History
The Dragon’s energy marks a universal time for renewal and growth within what already exists. Dreams are motivated to become reality for any new venture from a business to marriage, and seemingly, the more outlandish it may be, the greater outcome for success it will have.

1904, 1916, 1928, 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, all saw large-scale changes within these areas on a global level, as will 2012, as along as intuition is carefully listened to with the Water energy guiding this particular year. As the months ahead pass, look for financial situations to stabilize and find simpler, grounding means to display true value through mid-year as Jupiter finishes up in Taurus. Once Jupiter enters Gemini, get ready for an explosion in the communication industries, optimism to return to the publishing world, education, fashion, the performing arts, and prosperity to ignite moral ideas that continue to truly evolve humanity.

The YEAR OF THE METAL RABBIT, 2011-12

Posted on February 1, 2011 by Sharita Star

THE YEAR
OF THE METAL RABBIT

03 February 2011
to
23 January 2012

We collectively celebrate the Chinese New Year on 03 February 2011: The Year of the Rabbit/Metal Year. The Chinese Zodiac can lend anyone insight into their personality and natural tendencies, like our Western Zodiac can provide. Our friends in the West take their Zodiac and divide it into 12 signs as does Western Astrology, yet one animal sign influences an entire year verses one month.

The intricate link in understanding the common ground of these two systems is the transits of Jupiter, which take approximately one year to transit through one Zodiac sign in the West. Here in the West it only takes that same years’ time to represent all 12 signs on our Zodiac wheel, while 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.

Diplomacy and agreement will be rewarded in 2011, as the collective can expect this to be a time of peace, settlement, sensitivity, and one where attention paid to home and family is fortunate. The energy of comparison to stimulate agreements and conciliatory measures encompasses the political landscape. Advances within the medical field, welfare reform, and the arts all take center stage as the months within 2011 unfolds.

Now the collective experiences the 4th year within a 9 and 12-year cycle, where the seeds planted in 2008 are still in their incubation to eventually reap a harvest further down the road. With Uranus guiding the singular 4’s energy over 2011, there is originality, restructuring, and innovations to be found amongst the Rabbits urges for peace. 2011 marks the time when revolutionary ideas that are accompanied with a non-violent approach will bring us to a deeper understanding of the very world we all live in.

Grasping the true wisdom behind REVOLUTION plays a wise role in securing the future. At last a real one can now begins as this word calls to us to ponder: LET LOVE RULE NOT EVIL. For when we UNTIE IT IN A TRUE LOVE ROUTINE, we will all surely adapt smoothly to what virtue and refined energy of the Rabbit -especially within the added strength of the Metal Year- ultimately requests of us all.

All is set to the cozy lairs of our home environments and family life in a Metal Rabbit Year as we allow our sensitivity to co-operate. The Rabbit asks that we awaken a fertile and mothering instinct within ourselves. Once more under the Metal influenced year, these qualities are intensified and yearn to be strengthened all the more. With the Rabbit representing Yin Wood energy, what transpires over the year ahead brings forth longevity from the actions instilled.

As the Moon is closely connected to the Chinese understanding of the Rabbit, there is a great deal of mystery and intuition marking the energies we have access to. The choices of discreet, principled, refined, and honorable decisions are intelligent and respected ones within a Metal Rabbit Year.

DID YOU KNOW??? RABBIT TRIVA:

*YOU ARE IN the company of a Rabbit when you see a peaceful, practical, articulate, and perceptive spirit that happily shows that life is to be savored by enjoying the quieter things in simplicity.

*THE TYPICAL RABBIT is diplomatic, at times unpredictable/timid, enjoys conversation, makes their surroundings comfortable, pays attention to detail, enjoys routine, prefers entertaining at home verse going out, possesses an intense love for the family, dislikes arguments and avoids unpleasantness.

*RABBITS ARE Yin Wood energy, where the internal feminine represents the nurturing role and gravitating to reflection, privacy, and comforts. The symbol of wood allows for an flexible nature to emerge. The energy of the Rabbit can become unbalanced when irritable and confused under sudden changes and unforeseen events.

*RABBIT YEARS in history mark a time for balancing and opportunities to unfold for advancements within the arts, medical fields and our domesticated lives. 1903, 1915, 1927, 1939, 1951, 1962, 1975, 1987, 1999, all saw large-scale changes within these areas on a global level, as will 2011, being all the more intensified and strengthened by the Metal energy guiding this particular year. As the months ahead pass, we will be called to engage our sympathy, understanding, and nurturing more and more as situations requiring comforts prevail.

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR! BE… Fearless!

Posted on February 14, 2010 by Sharita Star

The YEAR OF THE METAL TIGER
14 February 2010 to 02 February 2011

We collectively celebrate the Chinese New Year on February 14th, 2010: The Year of the Tiger/Metal Year. Like the Western Zodiac, the Chinese Zodiac can lend anyone insight into their personality and natural tendencies. Similarly, the Chinese Zodiac divides itself into 12 signs as does Western Astrology, with one animal sign influencing an entire year. Here in the West it only takes that same years’ time to represent all 12 signs on our Zodiac wheel, while our friends in the East take 60 years to complete a full cycle, as each animal is depicted through 5 different elemental years.

Bravery and adaptation will be rewarded in 2010, as the collective can expect this to be a time of upheaval, invention, action, and one where the unexpected should be expected. From the weather to politics and finances- everyone seems to be wearing a different hat and is quite in flux. You may have heard we are in for a turbulent year, yet even this is a choice. It all boils down to how you choose to accept the changes that are about to unfold- your response or reaction will determine what your level of discomfort may be.

Now the collective experiences the 3rd year within a 9 and 12-year cycle, where the seeds planted in 2008 are still in their incubation to eventually reap a harvest further down the road. With Jupiter guiding the singular 3’s energy over 2010, there is optimism, idealism, and a re-education to be found amongst the Tiger’s swift changes. The 2010 Year ahead marks the time when new and daring ideas brought into will play a wise role in securing the future.

All is set to the stage of drama, tension, and excitement in a Metal Tiger Year as we allow these necessary changes to come forth, as difficult as some of them may seem. Even though we are amidst a current cycle of not so happy financial times on multitudes of levels- remember the alterations we see are part of a much larger Universal picture. With the Tiger representing Yang Wood energy, we are offered opportunities to find rewards in protecting what is right, all in the fight for justice to prevail. Ideas with originality and prophecy that honor a new order are welcomed. Any dealings which embody fair and honest assessments for the benefit of all mankind flourish in the quick pulse and vibrancy of a Metal Tiger Year.

Year of the Earth Ox, 26th January 2009

Posted on January 26, 2009 by Sharita Star

EARTH OX YEAR, January 26th, 2009 to 13 February, 2010

Always upon an Aquarian New Moon here in the West, our friends in the East ring in their lunar New Year. In the legend of how the Chinese Zodiac Wheel came to be, Buddha asked the animals to come to him and the Ox was the second in line. And so we find this Universal New Year of 2009 to be the continuance of the new beginnings instilled over 2008’s cycle of the Earth Rat. The Year of the Ox, Earth Year- coupled with 2009’s singular Two vibration only means all kinds of sensitivity, nurturing and reflection are on the agenda for the year ahead.

Integrity and conservation will be rewarded in 2009, as the collective can expect this to be a time of consolidation, consistency and one where the value of money and industry will be revisited. Material prosperity is highly protected when it is acquired through the means of hard work and loyalty. Now as the collective experiences the 2nd year within a 9 and 12-year cycle, the seeds planted in the previous one will reap intense harvest further on down the road, but the 2009 Year ahead marks the time for a return to paternal instincts.

All is set to grow tranquil and steady in an Earth Ox Year as we build upon another new cycle, encouraging us to continue to embrace the new beginnings we were introduced to in 2008. Even though we are amidst not so happy financial times on multitudes of levels- remember we are meant to be re-evaluating our value towards money in this reflective year. The Ox represents a Yin Water energy, one that offers opportunities to find rewards in solid markets, backed by intelligence. Risky investments are cast off in such a year where return to tradition and a sense of classicism thrive.

Those who will turn the ages of 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 82, 94, 106- (and so on!) this year, are native Ox’s and will experience from their Chinese Zodiac perspective, an “Ox Return.” Every 12 years our Chinese animals are represented by 5 different elements, pointing to where auspicious occasions will arise over a complete 60 year cycle. This same animal return year also links up with Jupiter’s cycles here in the West, where the planet of luck simultaneously blesses one with luck and optimism over the year. Your animal year typically will match-up with your Jupiter Return in the West’s birth chart.

Be on the look-out for the Ox in 2009 whenever you see an enduring and resolute spirit. These natives are strong, enjoy efficiency, take responsibility, have determination, love fighting for the status quo, find common sense solutions, and prefer secure pursuits to obtain familiar and safe results. Their external character is seen in the Yin, the feminine energy representing the passive force that naturally understands the emptiness and negativity of life. Even more emotional ability is granted to this Water animal in which the inner process is equally the feminine perspective that nurtures through quiet restraint and diplomacy.

Depending upon that element that guides any animals’ year of birth, more insight is available to add to the depth of character that makes up their innate nature. Par example of an Ox we are all too familiar with these days, is the USA’s 44th President Barack Obama, born in a Metal Year of the Ox. Any metal born animal strengthens their element, therefore a Water Ox is all the more hardworking, self-sufficient, resourceful and intuitive.

Let’s tune into more reasons why reflection is upon us, with this Universal 2009 reducing to the singular Two. The numerical guidance of the 2 + 9 =11, which numerically the Chaldeans understood to be, ‘A Lion Muzzled – A Clenched Fist,’ lends some of the following ancient advice: “It represents two opposed situations where compatibility of interest is lacking, and interference from a third force must be conquered. Difficulties may also arise from the illusion of separation. It’s necessary to unite divided goals to avoid a sense of frustrated incompletion. The origin of the separating force must be identified, an attempt made to seek compromise. Occasionally, conflicting desires within one’s own self are seen as in a reflecting mirror. Yet, each must remain individual, even after being joined, for each possesses its own worth.”

Thus we are in the perfect numerical match for Earth Year of the Ox. When we hone in on hard work and reliability while honoring the home and family, one is bound to redeem security-oriented rewards. This Earth Year coupled with a 11/2 Universal Year requests the same traditional values, co-operation, practical energy, and foresight within the 9 to 12 yr cycles, be adhered to.

Look to more signs of adhering common sense to the progress of the job and housing markets throughout 2009. As Saturn currently Retrogrades in discriminating Virgo until 16 May, expect further restructuring in both of these sectors. As Saturn goes Direct, the peak of the “bottoming out” will have occurred. Expect around the time when Saturn enters co-operative and balancing Libra upon the 29 October, these will be the first markets to be on the slow up swing once again.

Your own Western Astrological current transits and Numerological cycles are where you can find the necessary formula to take in the abundance within this Earth Ox Two year. Being aware of the lucky link of Jupiter to the East’s animal years -where Aquarius is currently transiting in your natal Western Chart- tells where to be on the look out for positive change this year. Couple this with your current Personal Year’s guidance and you’ll know exactly where to optimally bring the energy guiding your soul to a place of calm, allowing resolve and co-operation with others to bloom.

In as much as we do belong to a period in history that is speeding up faster and faster, bear in mind that the planets move no quicker today that they did 10,000 years ago. Check history and you’ll certainly find validation that the planets have always offered our ancestors the knowledge to unlock the magical wisdom they possess. It remains here for all of us to benefit from. May we never forget to take the planets into account to not only better understand ourselves, but to innately affirm and filter what we hear surrounds us from the world at large.

May your Earth Ox Year and 2009 bless you with a plenty of cherished re-evaluations, persistence, and steady growth resulting in classic moments that only can be measured in your heart.

The Year of the Rat, Earth Year 2008

Posted on February 6, 2008 by Sharita Star

February 7, 2008 to January 25th, 2009

Always upon an Aquarian New Moon here in the West, our friends in the East ring in their New Year. In the legend of how the Chinese Zodiac Wheel came to be, Buddha asked the animals to come to him and the Rat was the first in line. And so we find this Universal New Year of 2008 to be at the very start of a brand new cycle in multitudes of ways from the planetary heavens above. The Year of the Rat, Earth Year coupled with 2008’s singular One vibration only means all kinds of initiations and new beginnings are at an all time high to flourish.

In this spirited and engaging year ahead, the collective can expect this to be a time of pragmatism, forethought and self-will. Material prosperity is highly protected when it is acquired through the means of integrity and hard work over the course of how 2008 is to unfold. Think of the years to follow in 9 and 12-year cycles, where the seeds planted in this one will reap harvest further on down the road.

All is set to rise in a Rat Earth Year as we kick off another new cycle, encouraging us to face new beginnings. Even after 2007’s not so happy financial affairs that occurred on all sorts of levels, a feel good factor returns as market economies take an up-turn as the year progresses. When one turns to an open mind while taking a fresh look at the world, all kinds of new ventures can prosper when accompanied with the energies of optimism and belief. Discoveries and inventions are especially prevalent and easily have the ability to be unleashed with the end result of success.

Those who will turn the ages of 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 82, 94, 106- (and so on!) this year, are in from their Chinese Zodiac perspective, a “Rat Return.” Every 12 years our Chinese animals are represented by a different element, pointing to where auspicious occasions will arise. This same animal return year also links up with Jupiter’s cycles here in the West, where the planet of luck simultaneously blesses one with fortune and optimism over the year. Your animal year typically will link up with your Jupiter Return in the West’s birth chart.

In further alignment of how the East and West perspectives connect, it takes 60 years for the Chinese Wheel to complete an entire cycle as we see the return to the exact elemental year one was born in as that animal. This same 60-year marks in the West the 2nd Saturn Return, where significant changes occur in the life like never before. The Chinese believe one’s greatest wisdom begins to unfold as one full cycle of their wheel concludes. Saturn wholeheartedly agrees the 2nd Return also releases the soul into the greatest period of self-expression and inner power after a many life lesson have now been learned.

Be on the look-out for the Rat in 2008 whenever you see an enterprising spirit. These natives are generous, enjoy creating opportunities, take gambles, have a variety of acquaintances, love being the explorer and the pioneer, find clever solutions, and prefer mental pursuits over physical labors. Their external character is seen in the Yang, the male energy representing the life force and taking the initiative. Yet the perfect balance is granted to this Water animal in which the inner process is the feminine perspective that nurtures through quiet restraint and diplomacy. Depending upon the element that guides their year of birth, more insight is available to add to the depth of character that makes up their innate nature.

Let’s tune into more reasons new beginnings are upon us, with this Universal 2008 reducing to the singular One. The numerical guidance of the 2 + 8 =10, which the Chaldeans understood to be, ‘The Wheel of Fortune,’ lends the following ancient advice: “A number of rise and fall, according to personal desire. Every event is self-determined. 10 is the symbol of LOve and LIght, which create all that can be imagined, and also contains the code: Image 10 Ordain. Image it and it shall be. Ordain it and it will materialize. The power for manifesting creative concepts into reality is inherent, but must be used with wisdom, since the power for absolute creation contains the polarity power for absolute destruction. Self-discipline and infinite compassion must accompany the gift of the former to avoid the tragedy of the latter. Discipline must proceed Dominion.”

Thus we are in the ideal numerical match for Earth Year of the Rat. When we hone in on responsibility and wisdom with a twist of imagination, one is bound to redeem prosperous rewards from the seeds planted. This Earth Year coupled with a 10/1 Universal Year requests that solid values, reliability, grounded energy, foresight to the 9 to the 12 yr cycles, be adhered to. By applying focus and organization the harvest will be rich, but if the intention of greed is part of the plan, as the 10 so highly warns, the potential for absolute destruction can occur.

Looking to more signs of adhering to practicality and wisdom from our Western Influences, Pluto, the planet of change and regeneration, begins a 16 yr. period in Capricorn stimulating organization and matter relating to the progress of government. Jupiter accompanies Pluto in Capricorn to start this long-term passage off that brings in new wave of conservative thinking. The collective will begin to return to traditional values concerning education, morality and the law over the years to unfold.

This planetary combo brings swirls of change to political thinking on a global level. Serious movements begin toward the orientation and foundation of an innovative system of government that joins the world together into one system. If you already know about the National ID Card here in the United States, we are at the very beginning of this kind of change. It is obvious the world wide web keeps increasing in its’ utilization for almost everything one does, along with all those handy devices that keep us in the know of what’s occurring half-way around the world in a moments notice.
