Full Cold Moon & Total Eclipse

Full Cold Moon
By Tara Sutphen

The Cold Moon is at 29* Gemini will culminate December 21, 2010 12:51pm pst/ 3:51am est (almanac). Not only is the moon full, there will be a total eclipse on the Winter Solstice. The Cosmos is christening you for a great awakening, if you can be open to your own light and self expression. You are an organic being interwoven with specific phases of the living world and universe, Earth and the Moon turn together, as though they are dancing.Yule begins and is the celebration of light. Coming out of the darkest day-night of the year we will begin to gain more minutes of sunlight each day. Yule is a pagan holiday where the people of Europe and Scandinavia made festive, it is not considered religious. The pagans were naturalists, such as the Native Americans and other indigenous communities around the world. They followed the course of the sun, the moon and cycles of the seasons for planting food and generally planning survival strategy.
As winter comes we recognize our need to rest our minds, hearts and bodies while warming at the hearth. And we are mindful we have the added eclipse, which means something needs to be taken away to make whole or pure again. Individually this will means something different for each of us. The astrological aspects point to renewing personal truth. Taking the blinders off to contemplate and allow our personality and appearance to shine. This isn’t a time to be too lax or too stern with yourself, it’s about opening to the opportunities and possibilities presented to you.
Revving your internal engines to rethink and grow. Where have you missed cues and subtleties. Have you been asking yourself questions as to why you’ve been ram-rodding what you want or wanted and you got exactly that. Are you rethinking what is right and what is wrong for your reality. Have you been living a lie or idly waiting for change. Have you been living too sparsely and not asking the universe for enough? Sometimes we even do the opposite of what may be good for us. We have all dealt with some boring situations, weird events and worst case scenarios. Are they to bring us out of our reverie to better circumstances? Usually we must observe where the lesson needed to be learned, comprehending yet honoring our personal journey.
Maybe those who sometimes sit in emotional pain have been protected. We can get what we ask for…but there’s the old adage of “be careful what you wish for”. Be thoughtful as the path of destiny is different for each person. We don’t necessarily want to be in other’s karma or issues. You may not get people or circumstances in the exact way you long for, take the time to figure it out, time gives us a chance to either wait or work it out. Allow all poison to seep out of emotional wounds and physical laments. We’re brave from contests, but it’s time to win. Being aware of waning physical health mean you are to start a program the first of the year to correct it. Sticking to regimes of better living can be hard at first, but you are giving up self-deprecating sabotage. If you are worrying about money, find solutions to enhance your career or take the time to learn a new job or task. Before you came to earth you summoned certain people, places, events and things. Mainly out of bravery that you could handle “anything”.
Acknowledge how your vitality can be full and enriching, you want to live the greatest life. Own the statement and sentiment “I want to live the most Amazing Beautiful Existence”. You ask for wisdom, be open to receive. The moon is your personal spotlight upon the earth, Sorce the Moon…

13* Sagittarius New Moon

13* Sagittarius New Moon
By Tara Sutphen

13* Sagittarius New Moon (no moon – starry dark sky, the time of dreaming), culminating December 5, 2010. This Sagittarius New Moon is about stepping up to be a willing participant in your environment. Be it the home front or your community. What would you like to study or acquire. Every time you step out the front door you are given an opportunity to meet wonderful, sincere people and construct healthy, wholesome learning experiences. Have you become numb to the favorable circumstances that await you. There are choices. How we construct our time and how we treat people. You can be thoughtful. Even if you are on a time crunch, you can be kind, assert and speak comfortably, acting in tune with your intentions. We don’t always have time for friendly but we have time to be perceptive and gracious. If your day is spent in road rage, anxiety and churning worry, how will that help you design the life you want to live. Not all days come out smelling like roses, to be responsible we do have to actively handle day to day problems, and it’s important to have goals to pursue.
There is a bigger picture of your life without the nitpicking, doubt and self criticism. Nothing gets done until we leave complaints and disparaging behavior behind. If you think about it, we decorate our minds, our hearts, our bodies, our homes and careers. Some of us work hard at our anima, and we need to stay connected to actualizing a persona. We can garnish and adorn ourselves, and also know it’s important to access what is enriching. Who are you, the embellished you or the real you. What needs to be polished, inside the self, such as working on your sincerity, hopefulness, and trust or finding the outside self, improving your friendships, romance, and academic skills. What attributes are you reworking,” the inside you”, “the outside you” or “the issues you’ve come to think are you”. Let’s act toward alleviating fears, instead of collecting more by the day. You can give yourself some words and energy support to overcome some of your stress, therapies such as hypnosis, meditation, massages, hugs from our loved ones, or maybe a good inner dialogue of clear reasoning can help. No holding on to what holds you back. If you want friends you must reach out to be a friend. If you want love, you must reach out for love. If you want wisdom, you must stretch your mind, be questioning, listen and consider. If you want to achieve, you must be purposeful. If you want great health, you must begin. If you want life, you must live. There is no absoluteness in our reality, though it is malleable.

What would you like to learn or study?
Interacting with others and our environment, we should always remind ourselves we shouldn’t have regrets. If it wasn’t how we wanted to spend our time then to be honest but move ourselves out of situations that aren’t serving us. It isn’t to be rash with others feelings or our own, find balance. We don’t always get what we want, and we must know on some level that we want the very best or to learn a lesson so that we don’t have to repeat it again. We are not always in sync with others or their destiny. Actually we are in accord with very few people, but we empathize with many.

“Why, except as a means of livelihood, a man should desire to act on the stage when he has the whole world to act in, is not clear to me.” ~George Bernard Shaw (Irish literary Critic, Playwright and Essayist. 1925 Nobel Prize for Literature, 1856-1950)
