Do you like riddles?
Whether you’re reading The Hobbit or Alice’s
Adventures in Wonderland or an astrology blog, you know you’re in for a
wild ride when someone asks you that question.
Well, here we are, riding a wily Gemini & intense
Scorpio beast, wielding an eclipse, two T-squares, a Finger of God, &
Thor’s Hammer on on our way to...
What?
Well, that’s the riddle:
Where are you going?
Where do you really want to be going?
Notice the discrepancy between the answers you get to those
two questions, & then adjust your actions & decisions accordingly.
Here’s where the riddle gets sticky: You can’t really know what your actions
& decisions will lead to. This
lunar eclipse chart suggests a leap of faith (Neptune/Chiron square the
Sun/Moon opposition, with Moon conjunct Black Moon Lilith & retrograding
Jupiter). This is no ordinary leap
of faith, however. It’s a leap of
faith, planned meticulously, researched thoroughly, prepared well behind the
scenes, & then executed with confidence when the time is ripe.
The time is not yet ripe, though. We’re in a completion phase, suggested by many factors,
including this final eclipse in the Gemini/Sagittarius axis until the next
round begins in another 9 years. Another
helpful line of questioning:
What were you up to 9-10 years ago? Where do you see yourself in 9-10
years?
Now, a few notes on this blog before I launch into the
astrological nitty-gritty: Now
that the infinitini blog is all grown up (1 year old as of November 24th), it
has evolved from a regular biweekly report to Planetary Reports that will be
posted when there’s enough juicy material to share - monthly, biweekly, or
something in between.

other blog.
Last blog clarification: The infinitini Planetary Reports are dedicated to clarifying
the major transformational imperatives suggested by the planets’ placements
& movements. I’ll be leaving
out a lot of details, as they distract attention from the deeper truths. My point in working as an astrologer is
to support personal transformation & individual alignment within nature
& community. That’s hard to do
through a blog, but sometimes bandages can tide a person over until they can
get to a surgeon.
Now back to that crazy beast -
Let’s focus on the lynchpins of this eclipse chart, each
involved in two major configurations, each at the focal point of one of those
configurations: the Saturn/Venus conjunction, & the Moon/Black Moon
Lilith/Jupiter conjunction.
Venus conjunct Saturn in Scorpio suggests death &
rebirth in the realms of relationship & abundance, with an eye on the long
haul. Being at the focal point of
Thor’s Hammer (asteroids Vesta & Pallas on the other end of the
configuration) & in one of the arms of a Finger of God (with Mars/Pluto
& Moon/Black Moon Lilith/Jupiter), Venus & Saturn are sustaining quite
a of tension.
Which relationships in your life have the strength, honesty
& intensity that suggest longterm value? What bonds you to others? Whom do you trust?
Are you trustworthy? Are
you walking your talk in relationships - saying what you mean & meaning
what you say? Are you living up to
your promises? Are others living
up to their promises to you?
Have you noticed how we throw the word love
around? In some languages, there
are many different words for different kinds of love, but in English, we have
this one word that means so many different things. Play with that idea, & clarify what you mean when you
want to write or say love.
Do you have a longterm plan, accounting for your work in the
world & your personal needs, including but not limited to your financial
needs? Does it show integrity with
your core beliefs? What do you
need to release first before you can start building?
It’s time excavate, & then to be an architect,
folks. That means do your
research, do your math, clear & prepare your plot for a good foundation,
& make sure it’s all copacetic.
Only then can you consider building.
This juicy eclipsed Moon, Black Moon Lilith, &
retrograding Jupiter conjunction in Gemini suggest some fresh ideas bubbling up
from the depths of your subconscious & also filtering into your mind from
some vaster cosmic understanding.
These are not little ideas.
These are the kinds of ideas that rattle you, that shake you to your
core, that wake you at night, & walk beside you throughout the day,
demanding your attention. Being in
Gemini & at the focal point of a Finger of God with Saturn/Venus &
Pluto/Mars at the far arms, this Moon/Lilith/Jupiter conjunction suggests a
directional truth, but it won’t be a comfortable truth. It’s a truth that can bring everything
that’s been stuck into alignment, yet with Jupiter retrograde & Saturn’s
influence, it’s neither quickly nor easily implemented. The Scorpio, Pluto & Lilith
influences suggest these are truths that are hard to face, exposing any
cover-ups. Pies in the sky become
pies in the face.
Finger of God, where do you point? At each & every one of us:
Whom am I pointing my finger at? How am I displaying those very characteristics that hurt or
bother me? When is it wise counsel
to hash it out with others, & when is hashing things out with others just a
projection-fest?
Hint:
We tend to think a lot about how others hurt us. Really, in most cases, others do what
they do, & we allow ourselves to feel hurt by it. For a change, see what happens when you just sit with the
pain, & let it speak to you:
What is your pain really saying? Why hold someone else accountable for their humanness, when
we are all just as flawed?
This conjunction is also in a T-square with the Sun in
Sagittarius & the ongoing Neptune/Chiron conjunction in Pisces.
How can I be more adaptable? What “truths” am I holding fast to that may actually be
harming me, & keeping me stuck?
Am I martyring myself in any way?
How can I reclaim my freedom, & reconnect myself to something vaster
(insert your concept of God or Cosmos or Spirit or Way, etc. here)?
Let us not forget the other T-square in this chart:
Pluto/Mars in Capricorn opposite Ceres in Cancer, all square Uranus in
Aries. Again, we are reminded to
balance our personal needs with our worldly responsibilities &
actions. We continue to feel a
rift between our swift insights & visions, & the complexity & time
it takes to actually manifest those electric shocks into the masterpieces we
have envisioned.
If you take anything from this writing, be it this:
Let go. Let go
of anything & anyone you’re holding fast to. Let that which is true stick around on its own, & let
everything & everyone else do what they will.
Until next time, be well & be true.
Thanks for reading.
