Embracing Our Differences, Embracing Love: February's Full Moon In Virgo

  . . . what I am is a humanist before anything—before I’m a Jew, before I’m black, before I’m a woman. And my beliefs are for the human race—they don’t exclude anyone. Whoopi Goldberg

 

Somehow our devils are never quite what we expect when we meet them face to face. Nelson DeMille

I destroy my enemy when I make him my friend. Abraham Lincoln

It’s never too late to give up your prejudices. Henry David Thoreau

Prejudice is the child of ignorance. William Hazlitt

Why must it be just a case of black or white? There must be more to life than this. Freddie Mercury

The imposition of stigma is the commonest form of violence used in democratic societies. R. A. Pinker

You cannot contribute anything to the ideal condition of mind and heart known as Brotherhood, however much you preach, posture, or agree, unless you live it. Faith Baldwin

 

If you judge people you have no time to love them. Mother Teresa

The only moral lesson which is suited for a child, the most important lesson for every time of life, is this: “Never hurt anybody.” Denis Breeze

 

February's full Moon falls on Tuesday February 23 in Australia and February 22 in the United States. This is an interesting full Moon as it is rather Neptunian (but not too much), and can bring love, realizations, healings, new possibilities, new territories, etc. For a start, Mars is now traversing territory that it will be covering after it goes retrograde in Sagittarius on April 17 - it will backtrack right back to Scorpio 23+, so, we will most likely find ourselves retracing the steps we are making now. Decisions made now may have to be rethought or reappraised in the light of new information coming through in June. Mars in Scorpio can bring up issues to do with relationships, sex, money, debt, power plays, etc. Mars doesn't go retrograde until mid-April, but, as it is passing over it's shadow degrees now, we are already beginning that process. This promises to be a very interesting retrograde. 

Receiving, Reviewing And Revising Our Messages: February's Aquarian New Moon

Our soul is escaped as a bird from the snare of the hunters, the snare is broken and we are delivered. Catholic Encyclopedia

Hold fast to dreams, For if dreams die, Life is a broken-winged bird That cannot fly. Langston Hughes

Something was dead in each of us, and what was dead was Hope. Oscar Wilde

We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope. Martin Luther King Jr.

Lift me like an olive branch, be my homeward dove. Leonard Cohen

A secret is like a dove, when it leaves my hand it takes wing. Saudi Arabian Proverb

Censure pardons the ravens but rebukes the doves. Latin Proverb

I got the message. All of us get the message, sooner or later. If you get it before it’s too late or before you’re too old, you’ll pull through all right. Nat King Cole 

The Aquarian new Moon falls on February 8 in the US and February 9 in Australia. It's a big new Moon and one that holds some very interesting challenges and opportunities. An Aquarian new Moon is always a time when we can examine our freedoms, our sense of authenticity, our belief in ourselves. We may have a few issues to deal with along the way.... 

For a start, Mars is exactly square this new Moon from Scorpio. The messages from both the new Moon and Mars are about just that - messages. It is a curious new Moon as it can imply the need to filter the things you say, the things you think, the things you relay to others, the gossip you're ready to either believe or pass on, etc. It's about messages. The new Moon degree is about 'doves', doves bring messages, and Mars is on a degree that talks about 'parrots' bringing messages. Mars on 'The Parrot' degree can have us shaking our heads around what is being said, heard, passed on, gossipped about. The trick is to employ our filters and to see what is real, useful, healing, necessary, etc, and what is pure noise. Mars squaring the new Moon can have us making some pretty strong decisions and some of them can be rash, or, we may be on the receiving end of someone's anger. It can be a good idea to count to ten, revise, revisit, renew, reevaluate before we react. 

 

Thankfully, there is a beautiful trine between Venus and Mercury and Jupiter and the Moon's north node. This can bring all kinds of good things our way including good luck, good news, good ideas, expansive thoughts and realities, etc. etc. We may find a way out of something that has been binding us for a long time. Freedom comes from deciding what is real and what is fantasy - although a bit of fantasy can go a long way now. Some may be deciding to travel, take up a new course of study, making decisions around consolidating your resources into better uses, etc. New relationships can come about that bring new horizons and possibilities. This trine is a very good one, full of promise, as long as we don't overstep the mark and go full tilt before the time is right or before we have the resources to back up our plans, ideas or projects. 

Lynda's Audio Rave On The Aquarian New Moon & Offer Of Readings

Hi and Greetings From DownUnder :)

Just a little updating and a few announcements here - plus, a Daily Rave audio from me (see below). 

I've had a number of emails lately, asking about my newsletters - I missed one, the Leo full Moon. I wrote three quarters of it and then didn't send it... I do apologise - I have had a fairly rough January as I got a horrible virus right after the new year and have been so sick that I thought I might have had whooping cough (it was that bad). I am on the mend now, though, and getting back to it.

To that end (getting back to it), I am currently writing up the Aquarian new Moon newsletter and will be sending that out in the next day or so. 

I am doing another round of readings, and, (as previously announced) I was to increase my rate for readings on the 21st January. As I have not had the energy to make up a new readings page (the one that's up can't be edited - I have to make a new one), I have not increased my prices as yet and won't for the next month or so. I will, though, be upping my prices as I want to start on another book and need to be able to put more time and energy into that. So, if you want a reading, do get in now (or very soon). 

Here's the link to the order page for readings (and books) click here.  Please note - the US$150 'mini-readings' are not 'mini' - they are in-depth, just over an hour long, enlightening and instructive recorded audios about your chart, your transits and progressions, all in the light of the Sabian Symbols. If you want to see a video of me explaining the process - click here.

I have just recorded one of my Daily Raves (audio) on this Aquarius new Moon. You can listen to it - click here. I hope you enjoy it! 

What a time! I hope this finds you well and happy :) 

Cheers from DownUnder
