Young
Astrologers Association (YAA) is meeting this Tuesday night at 7pm at
the Earth Institute- "The Purple Room" Suite 1/20 Clarke St, Crows
Nest. If you would like to attend, please RSVP me on 0405 125 266 or
shoot me an email. This is our first meeting back at our old home so
members new and old are welcome. The
eclipses for 2008 are over. What did they hold for you? An open forum
on eclipses sharing stories and experiences is on the agenda for
tomorrow night. Beginning with a guided tour of the anatomy of an
eclipse and what it means in a birth chart. I look forward to seeing you! Want to learn Astrology? I am teaching at the new Awareness Institute alongside my colleague Damian Rocks due to my astro gal pal Kelly finding new horizons overseas. Course details. 
The
definition of the word 'eclipse' is to dim, darken conceal or hide- to
make something invisible by the elimination of light. The weekends
lunar eclipse fell in my own 9th house in my birth chart. My ability to
share my inspired astrological insights at a global level was
diminished, hence the less frequent posts. What area of you birth chart
were the lights proverbially turned out? The
Moon drifts slowly toward dreamy Neptune today making it easier to
stray from the ever increasing 'to do' list. This whistful, nebulous
and day-dreaming vibe will make coping with the demands of a Monday
morning (here in Australia) even more difficult than usual. As
Mars enjoys his last day of his once in year two year sojourn through
practical and precise Virgo, you will have that little extra oomph
required to dig deep and soldier on. If you can get something completed
today- then do it while the astro energy conspires with you. Tomorrow
fiery, dynamic and headstrong Mars enters cool, diplomatic and 'what
would you prefer to do' Libra. Your ability to stay focused on your
goals diminishes as you consider all the options around you, ask
someone else for their opinion and then procrastinate some more. Social
commitments hold more importance than work-related responsibilities.
Energy is directed toward relationships of all kinds. With
three planets and the Sun soon to enter Virgo all is not lost when it
comes to streamlining your life, culling objects or situations from
your life that have gone past their expiry date, all will still occur,
just at a slower pace. Mars is not happy placed in Libra- Libra likes
to contemplate and ponder to the point of procrastination, Mars likes
to act now, think later. As someone I knew a long time ago once told
me, 'I'm a Libran- I like to weigh things up and take the easy way
out.' Where would you like a little more ease in your life now?

New
Moon Eclipse tonight at 8:21pm AEST 9 degrees Leo - Solar Eclipse
Tears and Tantrums
Eclipses are those unpredictable jokers in the celestial deck of
cards- that elusive enigma that often baffles astrologers. One thing is
for certain with this one however is that this is an internal battle.
As the solar energy of the Sun in Leo (in dignity by rulership) is
eclipsed by the Moon (from earths view) inner feelings, emotions and
demons come to the fore. South Node energy also reinforces themes from
the past as well as your inner sphere. Recurring patterns that don't
serve you and the relationships you have can now be reflected upon and
the chance to move forward with a positive sense of renewal is now up
for the taking!
The Sun in Leo is a natural symbol for power, confidence and
command. In traditional astrology he represents the captain, the boss,
the leader and the king. When the Sun is shadowed your challenge is to
find new ways of finding personal power, realising that it comes from
within yourself rather than enforcing rigid or dogmatic systems upon
yourself or those around you. Knowing that it's your individual effort
that will pave the way for releasing negative patterns or situations
and bring the successes you deserve.
This eclipse reflects the energy of July 1990, many many moons ago!
You may want to revisit the themes of your life around this time to
assist you on what you are dealing with now.
For the next seven
or so hours the Moon continues in emotional Cancer. The lunar light,
though at her darkest in the sky holds all the cards now as she is
strong in this sign. This is an emotionally super sensitive time where
tears (Cancer) and tantrums (Leo) prevail. There is nothing like the
cathartic cleansing of water in the form of tears coupled with a long
shower to reset your emotional buttons! Works for me!
Happy
eclipse!!
