full moon after the autumnal equinox

The next full moon will be 25th September 2.51 UTC

Moon 1.59 Aries, Sun 1.59 Libra

Moon conjunct Chiron (0.02 rx Aries), opposite Mercury (5.18 Libra), semisextile Uranus (1.40 rx Taurus), square Saturn (2.49 Capricorn), sextile Mars (3.47 Aquarius), South Node (4.21 rx Aquarius) and Lilith (5.31 Aquarius), conjunct fixed star Deneb Kaitos

With Chiron and Saturn so prominent, it is very likely that we will have to deal with old wounds and fears, our inhibitions, limitations, restrictions, and becoming aware of all the glory of our defence mechanisms resulting from it.

Mars helps with courage and confidence to overcome the old patterns. Uranus (I always love him) helps with the urge to break the old structures, to bring in freedom and independence, fresh air, though it might come unexpected, unpredictable. Lilith helps finding new ways to express the wild untamed powerful female side.

Saturn squares Mercury, Moon opposes it; it won’t be easy to express what‘s going on inside. Emotional versus thinking, irrational versus over analytical. And both sides feel being restricted (usually by others, most likely our beloved ones). Best to find a non-verbal expression for all the emotions so to avoid unnecessary arguments and misunderstandings. Especially as Deneb Kaitos with the Moon enhances quarrels, being too head strong etc.

All in all a great time for healing. Healing deep old traumas. Good time for changing all those belief sentences that start with “I am not good enough in… ..” or “I don’t have the right to be /do … …” (whereas we don’t see any problem others having the right and ability to be/do… …). those can have their roots in childhood but also can be much older, inherited. Usually there is no one to blame for Chironic wounds. It is that part where the wound is simply unfair. Wrong time, wrong place. Like eg through a war. (In contrast to Saturn where usually we can point at at least one person and say “all your “fault””… ). Chiron on the equinox point gives collectively the possibility to restore the cosmic balance, the common good and to heal the wounds of injustice. this can happen when we have first restored it in us. Not easy. It requires the willingness to see where we have been unfair, mean, unforgiving to us and/or others as well as having been the receiver of unfairness, meanness, injustice. And then to forgive. Truly forgive

.

As much as, under Saturn, we can feel sad and lonely, bitter and cynic, guilty and shameful, depressed and reclusive, blaming us and/or others, he is the key to new structures as well. Thus we can use the next weeks also to look closer at our guild and shame and blame patterns and change those, too.

Another aspect worth considering is that the full Moon falls close to the equinox (2 days), thus illuminating the equinox mysteries once more resp expanding the equinox window for another day. The Moon activates the equinox point just a few hours before being full.

The September equinox is currently aligned with the North Galactic Pole, a region astronomers consider as one of the best for studying other galaxies. A great door (window) into the knowing of time and space, of deepening our understanding of our relationship to time and space. We are becoming more multi-dimensional, learning to exist simultaneously in more than one reality, enhancing our ability to consciously dream  the dream onward. There are no rules how we do this, how to engage with it. We are creating new ways of being alive!

Berenice’s hair gives important clues about this area of the sky. Hair is a symbol of many myths. It stands for power, strength, life force. It is Rapunzel’s rescue from prison (by the sacred masculine). It links us to the power of thought, spiritual knowing, inspiration, higher powers. Kali’s hair is Time. Buddha’s hair the tranquil and serene mastery of life force. Etc etc.
