Balsamic Moon Phase: release

Moon in Libra

Ruling Mahavidya: Kamala (Goddess of Assurance)

Skill: lighten up

Negative Imprints: looking down on others, losing the message, overly serious, demanding, risky impulsivity, unreliable, unhappiness, rigidity, limitations, not thinking ahead, control, clash of dualities, too loud

Positive Imprints:  thoughtful, cautious, offerings, strategizing, reliability, leadership, protection, integration, being drawn to others or drawing others, loosening up, seeing what we truly value, messages for the future

We come to the Balsamic phase, the last Moon phase of the lunar month that began with the energy of "a sight-seeing bus filled with tourists."  The journey has landed us in new territory, staking our claim.

If you think of this journey in a parallel way as a journey of the mind, the Balsamic Moon phase tells us we need to clear our new area.  We need to make it habitable by removing things that don't belong.  Poisonous weeds of limiting thoughts, viperous creatures of fear of change and fear of the unknown, and barbed vines of self-doubt and hopelessness are some of the things that need to go.  These are the things that obstruct us, weigh on us, or make our environments uncomfortable.

We tend to collect these sorts of things during Scorpio lunar cycles, so as we come to the end of this one, the intensity of the month's energy may be catching up with you.  Balsamic phase is the time of rest and release.  It is the time of imagination; the time to let sparks of electric magic re-enter our lives.  It is the time that sets the stage for the upcoming month, so it is important to release negativity, especially negative thoughts about where we feel like we fell short or what we feel we've lost this month.

Today's energy is noisy and puts on a show.  People can take things too far and become quite demanding.  There is a tendency to want to be heard.  There are also elements of things coming apart or breaking apart.  In the US, this energetic could be easily exploited today with tensions rising (being manipulated) under the racial trick.  The Moon is in Libra, ruled by Eris, and Eris energy is intimately entangled with this issue.

Eris' twin brother Ares (Mars), fresh off his meeting with Pluto and contact with Uranus, turns to us today to deliver some destiny.  Mars will help loosen emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual blockages that need to be cleared now.  He will also help us focus our attention, which is very helpful as we are trying to integrate all that has been revealed to us over the last two lunar cycles.  The last two cycles operated as a team to bring the fullest light to help us see and find what we needed to see and find.  Now we are trying to understand.

Today brings us an energetic that naturally can have us thinking about protection - self protection and  protection of what we hold dear.  It's almost a feeling of needing to guard or mark our territory.  Stand up for yourself or defend yourself if challenged.  Lead your own way.

There is also a tendency to underestimate things with today's energetic signatures.  We want to break free from any lingering ideas that we can do only what others think us capable of doing.  We do not need to be caged in someone else's ideas for us.  Each of us is gifted and talented in untapped ways.  Don't underestimate yourself or others today.  (This also goes for underestimating the lengths to which someone who is under heavy negative influence will go to compete with you.)

The fastest way to connect with Balsamic Moon phase energy is to become light-hearted.  If we are too serious-minded, the things that need to be weeded out or released have a harder time doing so.  You can instantly shift from serious-minded to light-hearted by taking a deep breath.  Amp it up by envisioning sparks of electric light raining down to transform the features of your life.

Remember that this is the time of the cycle when the Sun and the Moon turn mystical.  Let's all lighten up and get a little more mystical today.

Third Quarter Moon Phase: take responsibility

Moon in Virgo/Leo

Ruling Mahavidya: Kamala (Goddess of Love and Goddess of Assurance)

Skill: dive below the surface

Negative Imprint: bossy, controlling, perfectionistic, invasive, nervous, irritable, ruses, pushing down natural instincts, hypercritical, overreaction, drama (especially in the workplace)

Positive Imprint: adjustment, the desire for what feels like home, mobilization, security, inspiration from music, resolution, recognizing expertise, freedom from inhibitions, connections

Today the Sun and Saturn meet in the sky at the degree of "Indians making camp in new territory."  What must it have been like to move into a new place, not knowing exactly what lurked around you and feeling on guard even though you had scouts and sentinels for information and protection?

It probably felt a lot like it feels today because we are, essentially, making camp in new territory.  We have come to a new place in consciousness - a space where the old and the new meld.  It's a place of opportunity.

Practically speaking, today's energy translates into the need to adapt and adjust.  On the surface level, things are easily stirred, shaken, or whipped.  Desires are stirred up, environments are shaken up, and emotions are whipped up. 

If you find yourself in the middle of any of this, dive down.  Dive below where things are calmer.  Look more deeply into the situation from a place of inner stillness and peace.

The desire for deeper connections is quite strong today, as is the desire to make repairs to anything we think we've damaged.  There is ample power to resolve things.  Communications are particularly highlighted for repair with Mercury reaching 14 degrees of Scorpio and the symbol of "telephone linemen at work installing new connections."  Regular readers may recall me mentioning this degree recently, as I have noted that there seems to be something happening at this degree in space.  Data indicates increased solar activity when a planet is at this degree.

The Sun is showing increased activity with the return of the biggest sunspot in 25 years.  On Saturday (November 15, 2014), the sunspot released a CME from an M3.7 solar flare at 3:46 pm ET/8:46 pm UT.  The Moon was at 7 Pisces, opposing Neptune which was only hours away from stationing direct.  The Sabian symbol for the position of the Moon at the time of the CME is "a harem."  This is the energy to rise above circumstances and to see ourselves as worthy of what we truly desire and deserve.  This energy filtered in with the CME.

An M5.7 flare was released from The Sunspot on Sunday, but it is not known yet if a CME ensued.

As I discussed over the weekend, the Sacred Masculine inside all of us is responding to the energy of Neptune stationing direct (appearing to move forward in the sky once again).  But a curious thing develops as the Sacred Feminine inside all of us responds as well today.  Balance is occurring.  We see this reflected on the inside (in our individual lives) and on the outside (in our world at large).  Things are changing and it's all quite new - new territory.  It takes time to adjust to changes.

As new territory opens up today, embrace any opportunities that develop, even if you feel unprepared or unfit for the task.  Respond.  Take action.  Move yourself into a better position.  Remember that the best perspective today may come about from diving below the surface to take a look.

Saturday, November 15 - Sunday, November 16, 2014

Third Quarter Moon Phase: take responsibility

Moon in Virgo

Ruling Mahavidya: Kamala (Goddess of Desire)

Skill: make the connection

Negative Imprint: power to manipulate, domination, violation, fighting for territory, contempt, unable to connect with real emotions, fear of new opportunities, not letting go of the past, attention seeking behavior, learned helplessness, ruthlessness, tricks

Positive Imprint: integration, risking for the hope of something better, claiming one's space, success, seeing through, things in their proper place, commonality, reminiscing and seeing clues about the future from the past, leadership, standing up for others, vitality

The energy of the Sacred Masculine is in full force this weekend with Neptune stationing direct (appearing to move forward in the sky once again).

Neptune has been retrograde (appearing to move backward in the sky) since June 10, 2014.  It went retrograde at the degree of the Sabian symbol "a girl blowing a bugle."  Since that time, the Sacred Masculine has been sounding a call of awakening within the collective.  He has been calling something inside each of us to action. 

The Sacred Masculine, via Neptune, has been a major factor in what I've termed the "nexusing" of people of like mind coming together.  This is evidenced by the degree where Neptune is stationing direct Saturday, "heavy car traffic on a narrow isthmus linking two seaside resorts."  This energy has been about bridging or merging the two worlds - the old control paradigm that is falling and the return of the older paradigm that has been lying in wait - which is the focus of my conversation with Sol Luckman, posted on the homepage at www.oraclereport.com. 

Sol discussed the corpus callosum and its function to link the two hemispheres of our brains.  The corpus callosum is a bridge - a narrow isthmus - that links two worlds - two seaside resorts.  It puts things together, coordinates them so that they function well.  This is one of the things the Sacred Masculine does.  So, this weekend, as the energy of the Sacred Masculine comes in like waves crashing on a beach, honor it by putting things together, and by this I mean make the connection.  See what the universe has been trying to show you over the last two months.  There is a call to action in there - a call that will make your life better.  Our inner Sacred Masculine does not stick his head in the sand because what he sees is unpalatable.  In fact, it motivates him.  It strikes a cord and he responds instinctively. 

The close of these two powerful lunar cycles brings us in close confrontation with ourselves.  We need to respond to what we've learned about ourselves from the perspective of the inner Sacred Masculine - facing it and responding to it.

Mars is contributing to the strong influx of masculine energy this weekend as well.  In combination with Kamala, the Goddess of Passion, inner fires are ignited.

On the practical level this weekend, several themes swirl, so please pay close attention to the keywords for the negative and positive imprints. 

On Saturday, our ability to integrate the insights we've received over the last two months is heightened.  On Sunday, we gain a much deeper understanding of those things.  Sunday's energy is deeply penetrating with light, as the Sun will reach the degree of "an x-ray photograph."  (On that note, I should mention that the biggest sunspot in 25 years, the one that released so many flares but few CMEs a couple of weeks ago, sunspot 2192 renamed 2209 is now returning our way after its jaunt across the Sun.)

If you have neglected your body under these strong energetics, reconnect with it.  If you have not had enough time in nature, remedy it.  If you have not had enough fun lately, rectify it.  If you have not had enough beauty in your life, create it with loving feelings for the Earth, her people, her creatures, and her elements.  If you have not felt alive for a while, let the Sacred Masculine stir desire in your heart.

And please keep those photos coming when you capture sights of beauty.  We Northern Hemisphere wise owls are counting on our pals in the Southern Hemisphere to remind us of Spring and Summer!  Have a wonderful Sacred Masculine weekend, everyone.

Third Quarter Moon Phase: complete

Moon in Leo/Virgo

Ruling Mahavidya: Kamala (Goddess of Blossoming) with Shodashi

Skill: look deeply

Negative Imprint: jealousy, greed, not sharing, allowed to look but not touch, trickery, selfish, harming, valuing only financial profit

Positive Imprint: generosity, empowered, materialization of ideas and feelings, talent, true wealth, admiring the achievements of others, honoring situations and people, the bliss of contentment

The Third Quarter Moon phase opens today, and with it comes the close of a time of deep revelation.  Did you get the message?

This time of deep revelation has been happening since September 23, 2014.  Since then, we have been under energetics that are like a Full Moon - the maximum light by which we can see.  When we see, we understand.  We are illuminated.

If you have not been able to fully see something, over the next four days you are highly likely to do so.  You will be able to integrate the insight, guidance, and direction that is being offered.

I should add that the insight or insights that we are able to recognize are not trivial.  They are, again, deep revelations.  They affect us at our core.  They affect the course of our lives.  You could say it is our "core course" - our destiny.  This has been the mission of the energy for the past two lunar months.

In addition, the basis, foundation, or core of many different types of things can undergo a metamorphosis, rebirth, or blossoming today.  It's an alchemical kind of day when things can change from one way to another - a better way, a happier way.  So if something is not going the way you would like, respond.  Do something that changes the situation.  This month's theme has been "to boldly go..."  Have you been bold enough?  You will feel in your heart if there is something left to do.

Today's energy spurs the emotions of jealousy and greed, so be aware that others may be responding to this kind of energetic.  Take in what people are revealing about themselves.  It may be a key piece of information needed for your deep revelation.  If so, write it down and keep it prominent because you may need to rely on it to keep you on course.

Today is also a day for making a mark, marking an occasion, marking the day, marking an event, marking a turning point, etc.  The Mahavidya Shodashi joins Kamala today in this effort because making marks is one of Shodashi's favorite things to do.  The combined energies of the two goddesses enhances our ability to recognize and understand what we need to recognize and understand.  Direct communication is best.  Ask them to help you see if you are clouded.

Kamala's tendency to prompt desire prompts the desire for whatever feels like home to us today.  This is a very strong motivator.  Kamala's efforts always try to open us up and take us to an expanded level of experience.  We are always better for opening up to experience.  Wisdom is gained from experience.  Keep in mind that the desire for this feeling is primal and may cause dramatic reactions today.  Understand what is motivating people.

This year we have been gifted with not just one, but two lunar cycles with the fullest amount of light.  Sometimes it's hard to see the light because it shows us what we do not want to see.  But this is part of the adventure - part of what makes it interesting and worthwhile.  Be bold today.  Garner the last bits of full light by which to see.

Disseminating Moon Phase: communicate

Moon in Cancer/Leo

Ruling Mahavidya: Kamala (The Goddess of Assurance)

Skill: respond to your heart

Negative Imprints: anxiety, unease, invasion, impinging on boundaries and personal space/mind space, difficulty moving on, domination, robotic, monotony, impulsivity, selfishness, frozen, unresponsive

Positive Imprints:  impressing, willingness, formal acknowledgment, new frameworks, self-discipline, discernment of what is truly valuable, being shown where to look, sovereignty, longing, adaptation and adjustment, relaxation

We continue the week of intense astrological energies today with two major events: 1) Venus meeting up with Saturn and 2) Mars making an exact square to Uranus.  The two events will happen within ten minutes of each other this evening, but the energies will build all day.

Venus will make exact conjunction with Saturn at 7:50 pm ET/00:50 am UT and Mars will make a square to Uranus at 8:00 pm ET/1:00 am UT.

On one level, these energies bring headaches, heartaches, insomnia, accidents, shocks, control issues, and relationship issues.  We can be hyper-focused on our own needs.  The mind tends to devise ways of getting those needs met.  It can get down and dirty.

But on another level, a grander level, something more is happening.  This is the equation:

Uranus in Aries wants to change and free us for new and better things + Mars in Capricorn wants to ground things firmly + Venus and Saturn in Scorpio want to create new frameworks and relationships that transform = The Return of Wisdom or The Second Renaissance or The Re-Enchantment of the World.

Call it whatever you like, but a sea change is occurring.  It is the return to the old, old way.  Natural world order is being remembered and re-imprinted.  It is an alignment of the dreaming of Gaia Sophia and the dreaming of humanity to actualize the potential of humanity.  The potential of humanity is a special thing.

The hidden aspect within the energies is the Moon's entry into Leo at 1:45 pm ET/6:45 pm UT - joining the Black Moon in Leo.  This means it is a "Black Moon day" and shadow sides are triggered.  People tend to project their own fears and feelings onto others.  Today and tomorrow are the last full Black Moon days of the Black Moon's transit through Leo.  This means it is the final stage of rebirth for those with the Sun or Black Moon in Leo or Aquarius!  So in this way they are happy days.  But the Moon's placement adds fuel to an already volatile energetic dynamic today.  Emotions will whirl.

The best way to navigate this energy is to move it.  It is detrimental to hold it in our bodies - we need to move it through and out.  The energy is trying to spur us to action - to respond - in bold ways.  Uranus feels like lightning in the body.  It's our "inner Thor."  We interpret it as anxiety, jitteriness, and an overall unsettled feeling.  But it is the same thing as the feeling of excitement minus most of the fear.  And there is nothing to fear from the changes that are underway in our lives and in our world.  Uranus puts us where we need to be when we can't do it for ourselves.  We can trust it.

We can also trust in the spiritual force of the Wisdom Goddess Kamala, who is on duty to assure us.  Kamala is uniquely interested in the mundane affairs of humanity - much more than any of the other Mahavidyas.  Her consciousness is in closer range with ours.  She values and enhances our natural instincts.  And she never leaves anyone behind.  She will scoop you up and carry you along if you are struggling.

Within the swirl of issues that result from such strong energies today, wise owls twist it all another way because we understand what is really happening.  One paradigm is falling while the remnants of another paradigm is forming anew.  Go outside, take a walk, stretch your body.  But most of all respond to your heart today and be a part of the equation.  Be a part of the re-enchantment of the world.

Disseminating Moon Phase: share

Moon in Cancer

Ruling Mahavidya: Kamala (Goddess of Lotus Blossom)

Skill: release the desire for control

Negative Imprint: obsession with details and routine, prematurity, misleading others, emotional manipulation, carelessness

Positive Imprint: mustering, enlarged scope of awareness, excitement, hope, being in the right place at the right time, open-minded, focus, passion

As the week of intense astrological energies continues, today's intensity brings things to life.  The desire for form is brewing.

The desire to express and bring things into form is strong because Venus is moving into the same place in the sky as Saturn.  This combination of energies opens new possibilities, new horizons, and new beginnings that are sourced in our deepest desires.

Under this energetic, we desire practicality and reliability, especially in relationships.  This can be taken to the "lowest" extreme with efforts to control partners.  Power and control dynamics often result with Venus and Saturn.  This happens when people project their own shadow sides - their own unintegrated fears - onto people they love.  This ruins things.

Saturn isn't quite what it used to be, so we won't give it more power and control than it warrants.  We are in command of what we want, think, say, and do - not an outside force.  Harness the energy for yourself.

Each of the four elements are working today to open us open to something greater.  The element of water is washing over us with new feelings and beliefs.  The element of earth is magnetizing us with people, places, and things that support our soul's highest desire.  The element of fire is transforming us from the inside, giving us courage to be bold.  And the element of wind streaks by us, turning our heads and inspiring us toward something key to our future.

If one (or all) of these elements strikes your fancy, consider honoring it in some way.  It can be as simple as acknowledging the water that comes out of your faucet.  We tend to de-nature water because it easily comes to us through manmade systems.  Don't forget what it is and from whom it comes.  Re-connect.

This energy is fast and furious and can even feel like a barrage.  Growth is happening.  Growth implies change.  Change is uncomfortable.  But we are getting better at it.

It is definitely a day of kundalini rising, Kamala-style.  Kamala is a wisdom goddess, one of the faces of Mother Earth, Gaia Sophia.  Kamala is fiery and burns hot.  If you are open to it, she will expand your perception and experience of the world.  She will bring your senses to life far beyond hedonism.  She will take you into a richer, earthier place that provides profound connection.

This energy is fleeting today, so grab as much of it as you can.  Embrace what is seeking its way to you.  Release the need for control and you'll feel the gentle kiss of the goddess.

Disseminating Moon Phase: share

Moon in Cancer

Ruling Mahavidya: Kamala (The Goddess of Assurance) with Kali, Tara, and Shodashi

Skill: observe and honor the sea change

Negative Imprint: road rage and other rage, impatience, projection of anger, conflict, aggression, vitriol, extreme impulsivity, shock and awe, ungrounded with the Earth, war

Positive Imprint: leaps, enormous potential, rebalance of needs, transmitting thoughts and feelings, sparks, cooperation, being dazzled, courage, conversation, foreshadowing of the future, brand new things

In the chronology of the Return of Wisdom/the Second Renaissance, this week marks the time when the new grid of this level of consciousness, which has been over-laid onto the old grid of "control consciousness," is activated.  It's a sea change.

In other words, the Universe's conspiracy to redress (change) the balance of society, an effort that has been underway in earnest throughout 2014, is going live.  A new network, framework, timeline comes online.  The consciousness of all the people of the Earth is lifted into new territory.  It's a leap ahead. 

We've been like a group of tourists on a sight-seeing bus since the New Moon on October 23, boldly journeying to some unknown destination.  Well, we've arrived and, as promised, it doesn't disappoint.  It's time to get out, look around, and stake a claim.  This is humanity's world - the world we dream without the nightmare of the Archons' control.

It is too much to write in this report, but I will explain it in an extra audio recording this morning, which will be posted right under the audio for today's daily report on the homepage of www.oraclereport.com.  Suffice it to say for now that the X-flare from Friday, the re-activation of the Grand Cardinal Cross, the Mars/Pluto/Uranus aspect today, the Venus/Saturn aspect Wednesday, and Neptune stationing direct Saturday are culminating forces Gaia Sophia and Sabaoth the Sun (with a little help from some friends) are using to bring this new neural network into operation.  The old paradigm comes to the end of its line and the new one opens like a lotus spreading across the consciousness of humanity.

From this comes adjustments and adaptations that need to be made, which may become evident today.  Today's specific energetic signature is a powerhouse.  The exact conjunction of Mars and Pluto (and Uranus, which is in close square) occurs at 5:46 pm ET/10:46 pm UT.  At that time, the Moon will also be in opposition to Mars and Pluto, adding quite a bit of energy to the dynamic, primarily through a rise in emotions.

As the day progresses, so will the rise in emotions.  Wise owls understand and respond to this instead of reacting.  We put more effort into the positive imprints for the day listed above.  It is truly a time for celebration.  It is so big, in fact, that one day students of the Mysteries will study what was happening in the heavens and on Earth at this time, which will be seen as holy.

Let your emotions rise to the happiness of the occasion as the matrix falls into the sea.  Happy Sea Change Day!

(Don't miss today's special audio where I detail the data behind the events.)

Saturday, November 8 - Sunday, November 9, 2014

Full Moon Phase: illumination

 Moon in Gemini

Ruling Mahavidya: Kamala (The Lotus Goddess) with Tara and Shodashi

Skill: see what is being revealed

Negative Imprints: resistance, aggression, fear, feeling responsible for everything, struggle, battles, missed opportunities

Positive Imprints: mysteries revealed, overcoming fear, the spirit of adventure, combining ideas with others, understanding what we value, integrity, courage, rewards, freedom

The Sun released a solar flare a few hours after the Full Moon entered on Thursday.  An M2.0 with coronal mass ejection was released at 11:25 pm ET late Thursday night/04:25 am UT early Friday morning.  The Moon was at 18 Taurus with the Sabian symbol "a woman airing an old bag through a sunny window."

The energy of this CME brings up any old thoughts, patterns, beliefs, and habits that have been held inside.  This "buildup" limits us.  Instead, hold these things up and view them in the clear light that's available through a sunlit or a moonlit window and see what really holds up.  If things still don't belong, they need to be released or tossed out.

Several hours later yesterday, at 12:26 pm ET/5:26 pm UT, an X1.6 flare was released.  It is not known at this writing if a CME was released.  Earth was not in the direct line of "impact" but certainly the energetic effects are still felt.

If you have been following the Oracle Report this lunar month, which began on October 24, you know that the Sabian symbol for this month's energy compares to the vision of "a sight-seeing bus filled with tourists."  With the Full Moon of this cycle, the bus entered a forest with shadows and scenes to captivate the eye.  

This weekend, the bus stops and we come to an extraordinarily captivating sight.  In front of us, a woman draws aside two gates that are shaped like a lotus that closed an entrance.

"This is Kamala.  She is the Goddess Who Expands Us.  This is the entrance to her Sacred Pathway.  She rarely comes out to allow people to enter.  We are greatly blessed by her offering," the bus driver informs us.

Some of us wonder what kind of "sacred" this offering is.  Fear masks our inner courage and desire.  Some opt out and decide to walk instead, meeting up at the end of the phase.  It has been a taxing journey this month and rest is needed.  There is no judgment here.  Everyone is on their own sight-seeing journey.

Those that do enter, however, find that Kamala reflects ourselves back to us so that we not only remember who we are, but what we truly value, what we want to have, and what we want to create in our lives and in the world.  Kamala reawakens our hearts to what makes us feel alive.  We discover that the reward for taking her up on her offer to travel through her path is expanded understanding of ourselves - which leads to new opportunities.  Like the Lotus Gate that she opened at the entrance to her domain, Kamala opens us up like a blossoming lotus.

On the mundane level, Saturday's energy brings a strong desire to be self-sufficient.  The Sun is at the degree of "a woman, filled with her own spirit, is the father of her own child."  This energetic is very empowering, but it can also negate the power of combining, sharing, and nexusing with others, which always enhances things.

Saturday's energy may be a struggle, as a feeling of being in battle tries to emerge.  There are themes of resistance.  This may center around needs and the reasons behind needs.  There may be a battle of conscience or confusion about going against what one feels is true in the heart.  We want to do the right thing, even if that is not what is expected of us.  We just can't go against our grain under this energy.  Face things with integrity, knowing the possible consequences and being able to accept them.

Sunday's energy finds that Kamala's Sacred Pathway is "a path through the woods rich in autumn coloring," the Sabian symbol for the Sun on Sunday.  It is an explosion of color and beauty.  The energies involve reward, harvest, and the signs of change.  What is visually catching you?  Where are you looking?

On Sunday the Earth will be at the degree of the Full Moon CME - the woman airing the bag through a sunny window.  Whatever was happening for you at the Full Moon (Thursday) is likely to return in some way for another visit.

Of course, on Monday, the exact conjunction of Mars to Pluto and square to Mars will take place.  This is already in effect (see yesterday's report in the Archives at www.oraclereport.com).  It's aggressive, war-like energy for change that plays out in the microcosm of our lives and the macrocosm of the world - dreams within dreams.  It is strong on Sunday, with the heightened alert to be aware of what the minions of the matrix are doing in reaction to the opportunity for war and aggression.  This astrological event also reactivates the Grand Cardinal Cross energy that has dominated 2014.  Let's see what comes up from the depths.

I will update over the weekend if any other CMEs are released and I hope you all have a very lotus blossoming-ish weekend.

Full Moon Phase: realizations

Moon in Taurus/Gemini

Ruling Mahavidya: Kamala (Goddess of Assurance) with Tara and Shodashi

Skill: be willing to relate and communicate

Negative Imprint: manipulative, false appearance of happiness, breaking apart, gossip, misunderstanding, not giving enough back or investing enough, ignoring your own needs, out of touch with the times, loneliness

Positive Imprint: freedom of choice and expression, inner happiness that transmits out, giving and receiving messages and information, new approaches, challenging outworn structures, overcoming fear, timelessness, releasing worries, truces, help from unexpected sources

Today's energetics are heavily involved in communication and expression.  The sheer amount of information that comes to us is astounding.  Since this is the Full Moon of a lunar month that is like one long Full Moon, the second of two we have this year, we are in a double-impact Full Moon energetic.

Full Moons bring revelations about all kinds of things.  They bring clarity to see the truth of things, especially the truth of ourselves. 

Full Moons also tempt the shadow side to emerge.  They bring about extremes of emotions.  They can drive us a little or a lot crazy.  And they often magnetize or fracture relationships.  It's intense all the way around, but if the degrees of this energy are aspecting your own chart, this energy can make us feel insane. 

Added to this we are building toward Mars' conjunction with Pluto and square to Uranus.  Mars wants to run.  Pluto wants to dive.  And Uranus wans to fly.  Which way do you go?

We have choices.  We can run away from whatever the light of this Full Moon is showing us or we can run toward the focus of our desires - what we want to express and create in the world.  We can dive down and hide or we can dive deep inside ourselves for something and return it to love.  We can fly away from light or we can fly straight for it making a blazing trail.

As the aggressive, domineering, and volatile energy of Mars, Pluto, and Uranus enters, we will be wise to be responsive, not reactive.  We understand that people's communications may be harsh.  It's very easy for people to lose their tempers.  It's very common for power ad control dynamics within relationships to emerge.  But it's also very true that these things are coming to light for a reason: they need to be addressed and released.  This energy wants to free us.

Since this energy is heavily related to communication, we want listen more carefully to what people are saying.  We also want to express things if we are prompted.  Our words and feedback may be integral to someone else, even though we wouldn't necessarily know it.  Your conversation may even be overheard by someone else.  So, if you have something to say or contribute that might be helpful, speak it.  A generalized openness or willingness to connect or express or share today has magnetizing effects.  It draws to us what we need.

The Sabian symbol that is operating all month long is "a sight-seeing bus filled with tourists."  Today, the bus is lively with conversation and discussion of all of the things we are seeing.  And there are lots of things to see right now.

(Note: The Sun released a coronal mass ejection from an M5.4-class solar flare at 10:46 pm ET Wednesday night/03:6 am UT Thursday morning.  The Moon was at the Chiron Point at that time with the Sabian symbol of "a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow."  Heaven and Earth linked.  Be ready for miracles.)

Full Moon Phase: illumination

Moon in Taurus

Ruling Mahavidya: Kamala (The Goddess of Assurance) with Tara and Shodashi

Skill: connect with nature and visually "mainline" it to remain grounded

Negative Imprint: discomfort, harsh words and actions, out of tune, being too late, disconnected, aggression

Positive Imprint: determination, playfulness, spiritual attunement, fruitful, infusions, poise, good tidings

The "sight-seeing bus" we are metaphorically riding on all this month enters a forest as we begin the Full Moon phase today.  The light of this Full Moon is super-luminal, catching the branches in different ways, morphing into new scenes.  This forest is alive with the dreaming of all of the trees.

The Sabian symbol for the Full Moon is "a man with a rakish (unconventional) silk hat muffled against the cold, braves a storm."  Certainly this implies the theme of weathering, but we have what we need.  Silk is an exceptionally good insulator.  In the cold, most of our body's heat is lost without a hat, so with a silk hat, we are in good form.  We are prepared.  As for the rakish or unconventional part, well, who among us isn't?  Would we have it any other way?

The storms will come in many forms.  One storm is in the form of emotional storms and abrupt changes.  Cold comes down from the North, the land of the Winds of Change.  The Sacred Masculine is also coming from the direction of the North and will respond to the energetics that are in place.  Masculine energy will dominate during this Moon phase.  Since Uranus is involved in the dynamic over the Full Moon phase, we can trust that the changes that are happening in our lives are to designed to make things better.

But another storm blows open greater potential.  Things that were forgotten are remembered and brought back to life.  These are things from our younger days.  They are revitalizing and they help us engage more of our personal power.  When this happens, we are able to tap and actualize our potential, our mission, our destiny.

The Wisdom Goddess Kamala brings in back up  - the "big guns" you might say - with Tara and Shodashi for this Full Moon phase.  The Goddess of Assurance has made sure!  There is ample support in place not just to weather and personal or global storms, but also attune us to greater understanding of ourselves and the reflection of our lives, greater understanding of spiritual connections. and greater understanding of how to operate in the post-matrix world - the is emerging.  It's an altogether greater harmonic wave that comes in with this Full Moon.

Another Mahavidyas will join these three on Saturday for the real story of this Full Moon phase: Mars conjunct Pluto square Uranus.  I bet you can guess who it is...

The message is clear:  Rest assured.  Watch the scenes change.

Gibbous Moon Phase: trust

Moon in Aries/Taurus

Ruling Mahavidya: Kamala (Goddess of Passion)

Skill: open up

Negative Imprint: interruptions, intrusions, insincerity, tangled up in other's business, closed off or shut down, overcomplicating, not speaking up for oneself

Positive Imprint: contentment, self-sufficiency, depth, connections, transformation, repair, communication, magnetism, sincerity

A few years ago I noted a pattern of increased solar activity when the Sun comes into range, astrologically speaking, of 14 degrees of Scorpio in the sky, as it does today.  The pattern is increased solar activity, as we are having now.  The most recent example, November 5 2013, produced a solar magnetic crochet and an X3 flare. 

What is happening at this place in space?

Our best clue about the effects of this energetic has been handed down to us by the Sabians, the Gnostic skywatchers of the before times.  The contemporary symbol for 14 Scorpio is "telephone linemen at work installing new connections."  It is the energy for communicating our feelings, thoughts, and ideas.  We "nexus" with people as the divine plan unfolds and sends what we need for co-creation with others.  People, places, things, and information are brought together or brought into a line - alignment.  Professional, personal, and romantic relationships are often repaired under this energy.  For as long as I have followed the Sabian symbols, this symbol has always proven to be quite powerful.

Under a Gibbous Moon phase, it is powerful magic.

(Because energy comes in waves, the energetic effects are experienced for three days prior to the Sun's movement to this degree and three days after.  This is why some people "pick up" the energy of the daily reports earlier or later than that day.  If your chart is attuned to any of the degrees that are activated, you will usually feel it in advance.  So you may already have picked up on this energy, especially since Venus just moved from this degree.

But back to the magic.  Our willingness to open our hearts is directly tied to experiencing the magic.  If your heart is closed off with sadness, grief, loss, anger, resentment, shame, guilt, and all like colors in the palette of human emotions, the magic cannot reach you, take spark inside of you, and manifest in the personal painting of your life.

Kamala, the Mahavidya or Wisdom Goddess who is one of the faces of Gaia Sophia, the divine being embodied as our planet, specializes in opening our hears like a lotus blossom, specifically by igniting passion for the things that make life worth living, which are myriad.

All of the Mahavidyas work from the heart, but some more than others.  Bhairavi calls to us and fortifies our hearts.  Shodashi brings the fulfillment of our highest desire - the desires at the soul level. 

But Kamala works on a much more earthy, instinctual level.  She engages all of our senses to open so that the fires of the heart can begin to rise throughout our bodies.  She is interested in full, multi-dimensional awareness experienced right in the here and now.  She takes what is instinctual and makes it sublime.  This is intoxicating to us and it is why so many people (men particularly) are enthralled with Kamala's energy (though few know this is what or who it is).  Kamala uncoils from the base chakra and rises up.  She is kundalini.

So Kamala's energy helps us open, as if by magic, and connect with what we desire.  When we connect with desire we become empowered and we take action.  This is how our world is changing.

Today's report is more of a behind-the scenes kind of view, so please rely on the negative and positive imprints to understand the nature of today's energy and the kinds of things you might encounter and need to navigate.

Like a lotus blossoming, Kamala is trying to open our hearts today.  She wants to free us from the shadows of our fears and bring us to the land of the truly living.  Connect with her today.  Open up to the possibilities that are being offered and engage the magic.

Gibbous Moon Phase: trust

Moon in Aries

Ruling Mahavidya: Kamala (The Lotus Goddess)

Skill: trust in the processes of change that are underway

Negative Imprint: overlooking, ignoring, neglecting, too serious, "busy bodies," emotional outbursts, frustration, repressed emotions 

Positive Imprint: uplifting others, self-reliance, opportunities, inner child, wisdom from errors, appreciation, sharing feelings and happiness

The sights on our sight-seeing journey through life today may be rather surprising and potentially earth-shattering.  

Earth-shattering isn't necessarily a bad thing.   Paradigms change with shifts in conditions and circumstances.  An inner feeling of something busting loose or breaking free - an inner "quake" - can be delightful.

Various levels of personal and global change can be expected today with the Moon's conjunction with Uranus.  (Exact conjunction at 12:30 pm ET/5:30 pm UT).  Remember that change is the name of the game this year.  Wise owls are getting good at handling, flowing, and adapting to changes.

Be aware that the conjunction of the Moon and Uranus is at the degree of "a bomb which has failed to explode is safely concealed."  This is the degree of Uranus back at the New Moon in Aries, the astrological New Year, in a year where Uranus rules.  Be aware that Uranus energy prompts accidents, so take extra care while driving.  Leave the craziness in another dimension.  Let it pass you by.

This energy also brings up things that need to be released or discharged.  It's a day of clearing the air.  We want to be mindful of defusing things before they get out of hand.  The potential damage is far-reaching under this energetic.  Lower octave expression of this comes in the form of tantrums and generalized anger.  The best dynamics maintain respect, so aim for this with those who come into your sphere.

If you find yourself in a situation where things are not going according to plan or not working in some way, try another way.  Recombine the existing elements or bring in new ones.  Re-do's are effective today, but they require invention.  Creative powers of invention are super-high today, so follow through on any impulses.

Themes involving burdens, responsibilities, overload, and taking on other people's burdens, responsibilities, and loads also show up today.  This brings light to where we feel appreciated/unappreciated and supported/unsupported.  If you are out of balance between what you are giving or doing and what you are receiving or having, today the universe asks you to come back into balance.  What do you need to do to come back into balance?

The best guidance today is to lighten up and embrace the new things that are rising up.  Gibbous Moon phase is the time when we are tested to trust what is happening.  Uranus always puts us where we need to be, so we can rest assured.  Additionally, Kamala, the Wisdom Goddess who is The Goddess of Assurance certainly shares her gifts for this.

The sight-seeing bus is climbing a high mountain, lifting us up from things that are earth-shattering.  Today we will trust the process.

(Note:  The Sun released two coronal mass ejections yesterday:

1)  M2.2    6:53 am ET/11:53 am UT   26 Pisces   "a New Moon reveals that it is time for people to go ahead with their different projects" - This is energy for new beginnings, diversifying, and an amplification of any intentions/wishes/goals put in place back at the New Moon on October 24 and also for the upcoming New Moon on November 22.  The Moon was trine Saturn at the time of the CME, so structures are the focus - structures of life, including the structure of relationships, families, living situations, work conditions, health, anything.  The intentions set at the next New Moon will be powerful so begin thinking about what you want to infuse into the structure of your reality and collective reality.  This flare is believed to have been much stronger, but was blocked by the Sun somewhat.

2) M6.5    5:40 pm ET/10:40 pm UT   03 Aries   "a cameo profile of a man in the outline of his country" - This is energy for making a mark.  We make an imprint and have an effect.  We are concerned with seeing how we fit in to the bigger picture.  In the terms I used in yesterday's report, we were trying to see the forest for the trees.  The Sun is directly engaging with anyone who is aware and open to such an engagement, offering information to help us make a mark.  The information is personal to each of us, but collectively helps us hold the structure of a new way of life as the old way dissolves.  The Moon was in square to Mars at the time of the CME, empowering Mars as it makes it way to conjunction with Pluto and square to Uranus on Saturday.

We are building toward the Full Moon on Thursday.  Moon phases are four days and Thursday through Sunday is going to be intense.  No worries.  When you know what's going coming, you prepare.  You can watch it swirl around you, out of the fray.)

Gibbous Moon Phase: trust

Moon in Pisces/Aries

Ruling Mahavidya: Kamala (The Goddess of the Lotus Blossom)

Skill: tune in to the stream of information

Negative Imprint: materialism, power of suggestion, hypnotic effects, political propaganda, bragging, restriction, betrayal

Positive Imprint: interludes, rise in awareness and sensitivity, true worth, true self, planning, power of words, beauty

This lunar month, the ancient wisdom of the Sabian symbols tells us we are like tourists on a sight seeing bus.  The energy is taking us on a trip and we are seeing things we've never seen before. 

It's sometimes shocking.  But it's mostly awe-inspiring, which is the way we will bend towards today.  It is awe-inspiring because with the opening of the Gibbous Moon phase, the magical time of the lunar cycle, Gaia Sophia is streaming.  She's live on our wire.

Wise owls should be ready for incoming streams of information - knowledge - which we will alchemize into wisdom.

The process is facilitated by knowing that the process is happening and being open to it, but it happens naturally when we pay attention to what's going on around us - to what people are saying and doing, to what might be going on under the surface, to what the Animal Kingdom is telling us.  Sophia streaming.

Today, as tourists on the sight-seeing bus, we are seeing the bigger picture - the forest - for the trees. 

Understand that today's energetic signatures include themes of failures to communicate, repairing damage to communications, and making new connections.  Resonance is operating at high levels, with people, places, and things that are aligned and alike coming closer together and people, places, and things that are unaligned and unalike drawing farther apart.

With this, divide and conquer tactics are also heightened.

Another element of today's energy includes wanting something we don't have.  This is due primarily to the position of the Earth today at "a young couple walk down Main Street window shopping."  The negative imprint of this energy causes people lose sight of the beautiful, simple, valuable things we already possess.  Main Street of the dying matrix has nothing to offer.  Main Street of the world we are creating is lined with opportunities.  Wise owls keep it real.

And one other thing with this... jealousy.  When the Sun and Venus are in Scorpio, jealousy runs hot.  It's ugly.  It's shadowy.  It's unproductive.  It's anti-human.  We turn away from it.

We turn away because there are much, much better things to watch as Sophia streams live and uncensored as we build toward the Full Moon on Thursday.  The trip continues and the sights continue to awe us.  Much love and magic today, everyone.

Saturday, November 1 - Sunday, November 2, 2014

First Quarter Moon Phase: take action

Moon in Aquarius/Pisces

Ruling Mahavidya: Kamala (Goddess of Assurance) with appearances by Tara and Bhuvaneshvari

Skill: take care of yourself and others

Negative Imprint: intimidation, fussy, playing games, panic, immature attention-seeking behavior, pretending to not need help, not accepting help, shallow, afraid to make a move, not taking care of oneself

Positive Imprint: assistance, nurturance, beauty, blooming, compassion,  renewal, inventiveness, possibilities, destiny

This weekend is a time of breaking down boundaries that separate us from others, assisting others, and nurturing our own mental and physical bodies.  It's about taking care.

Saturday's energy brings us into closer resonance with people who are kindred or like-minded - soul families.  What I've been calling the "nexusing" (or linking up in space and time with people, all planned prior to incarnation) is accelerating.  The attention of Gaia Sophia, now fully awakened and fully engaged with humanity, is the reason for the acceleration.

When you declare yourself aligned and participating in the co-dreaming of humanity and Sophia, life becomes what some would call magical.

Some will struggle with this over the weekend, not wanting to boldly go where no one has gone before because of fear of the unknown.  This will cause emotional spirals, especially on Sunday, leaving some unable to cope.  You may be called upon to help someone out of a dark emotional state, but you may have to cross over into that place to do so.  Wise owls are quite adept at seeing in the dark and helping others find their way to light.  We do it for each other all the time.  This is no different, but you may not have expected to be helping who you are helping.  We are all human and everyone needs help at one time or another.  If someone is offering it to you, it comes from a place of great love, so accept it graciously.

The Mahavidyas Tara and Bhuvaneshvari return this weekend as the Earth, Gaia Sophia, reaches the degree of the Taurus New Moon and the Sabian symbol of "a red cross nurse."    Do you remember the Taurus lunar cycle - most of May 2014?  We were lucky enough to have two red cross nurses on duty that month.  Look back to that time.  What was developing for you then?  What did you seed or intend for the future?

Tara and Bhuvaneshvari will help us get our physical, mental, and emotional bodies in better shape for the rest of this month's journey.  This week, the Moon will build toward Full and Mars is on approach to Pluto.  The look and shape of things is likely to get even more nutty, as one wise owl put it.  So we will prepare ourselves for this and build up our energetic reserves.

This whole month, once again, is like a long Full Moon.  Full Moons bring things to their heights.  Sensations, emotions, and passions run deep.  We come fully alive under Full Moons.  There is tremendous power for manifestation under Full lunar cycles.  Don't be afraid to go for what you want.  The whole month is like a long Full Moon, but this weekend we are in the last days of the First Quarter phase of it.  First Quarter is when we step out.  We go out on branches doing dances.  Leave your emotional comfort zone.  Break a boundary of fear that has held you back.  Embrace the opportunities for growth.

With strong sensations, emotions, and passions, aggression and conflict can emerge.  Again, this is clarity coming from the fullest amount of light.  Maintain alignment with the light, even if this means that what you see from others means you have to take action.  Do not be intimidated or manipulated by someone trying to overpower you.

The Mahavidyas are sprinkling flowers along the path this weekend, waiting for us to pick them up.  This means we have to know what we are looking at when we see it.  Do you see external evidence of internal beauty?  It takes wise eyes.

Step out, break out, reach out, go out. Take a chance.  Do a dance.

(Note:  Let's watch closely who stands out in global "leadership" over the next 10 days.  The person who emerges as dominant during this time span will wield power to sway the future.)

First Quarter Moon Phase: step out

Moon in Aquarius

Ruling Mahavidya: Kamala (Goddess of the Lotus)

Skill: honor great change and then open to the future

Negative Imprint: frozen in the past, attempts to dramatically display (false) happiness and success, chest pounding or grandstanding, too much information, scattered, disappointed

Positive Imprint: fellowship, renewal, connecting with others, stability, giving and receiving, uplifting others, fixing things, courage, big breakthroughs in seeing through illusions

Sometimes it is important to step back and take in the scope of things.  Today is one of those days.

When we step back, the magnitude of the times in which we are living is revealed.  We understand that we are in the midst of a living process of great change.  This is an honor.

2014 is all about change.  Are you resisting it?  Are you accepting it?  Are you embracing it?

There are pools of energy that tempt us into wallowing in disappointment, disillusionment, and emptiness (particularly about a perceived loss or failure) today.  These things are part of the past, and as such, are not part of embracing the future.  

Embracing the future is the second element to today's "mission."  First we step back and try to really integrate the full-blown changes in consciousness that are happening, and then we open up to the effects this will produce.  Real change is happening and the future is bright.

This may be hard to see today because the Moon will be moving toward opposition first with Jupiter (8:30 pm ET/00:30 am UT) and then opposition with the Black Moon (Saturday at 7:38 am ET/11:38 am UT).  We want to work the positive imprint as best we can by welcoming change.  If you find yourself struggling under these aspects, the best medicine is always to go outside.  Reconnect with the natural world.  Ask for guidance.

The ancient imprint for today's energy involves fellowship, joy, and celebration of life itself.  This has been horrendously twisted, but we retain the spark of it.  Let's spin these things back into the web of reality today, wise owls.

Here's my kind of Halloween visual for the day:  From our view on the shore, we take in the spectacle of the monstrosity of the matrix collapsing into the ocean, tentacles flailing.  Lightning is flashing in stormy skies.  The horror is sinking away.  We are shocked and awed.  To the side, something else flashes.  It's the Sun, breaking through the clouds.  We turn to it and follow.

First Quarter Moon Phase: branch out

Moon in Capricorn/Aquarius

Ruling Mahavidya: Kamala (Goddess of the Lotus Blossom)

Skill:  integrate the aspects of yourself that are revealed

Negative Imprint:  causing damage, forcing, unsupportive and unsupported, feeling abandoned or lost, mood swings, feeling unable to cope, dividing and conquering

Positive Imprint:  repairing damage, transcending conditions, improvisation, reflections, facing truth through the fall of illusions, people of like mind and mission coming together

If the energy of this lunar month is like being on a sight-seeing bus filled with bold tourists going where no one has gone before, today the bus stops for gas and repairs. 

An opportunity to explore presents itself.

In keeping with the energy of "pausing" and taking a departure, let me tell you a story of the day instead of giving a report.

Many of us on the bus wish the driver would've stopped in a better part of town, so to speak.  Everything looks ominous.  Symbols of death abound.  Do the people that inhabit this place worship death?

Shadows seem to stalk us, only to flee when we catch a moment's glimpse of them.  The light of the Full Moon casts their reflection off of a calm river.

One of us notices a large canoe along the bank of the river.  It is big enough for all who decide to take a side trip, but who will go?  What possible type of phantoms could lie deeper in this realm?

Another of us thinks to check the map.  It indicates that a place called Shadow Springs is a short distance by water.  The map says it is a hot spring.

Can we trust it? 

Some of us decide to find out.  Grabbing a few torches, we ease into the canoe, setting out in the direction of these Shadow Springs.

We soon discover the map did not tell us we would be paddling through caves.  Because we are bold, we continue on, not looking back, trusting our ability to take care of ourselves no matter what we encounter.

A strange thing happens when the firelight of our torches reflects off the cave walls.  Some of us see ourselves and our fears reflected.  Monsters of our own making thrash about and we are captivated by the scene.  We see what holds us back.  We see what we do not want to face.

Just when our fears seem like they will overtake us, a warmth fills the air and our melts away the shadows of Shadow Springs.  It is indeed a hot spring - a place where the hearth of the Goddess heals our souls.

We all jump in, immersing ourselves with Oneness, with all the lost parts of us that linger in shadow.  They are not phantoms; they are lost parts of our own power.

We take them back with us, integrated and back home inside of us where they belong.

In case the message gets lost in translation:  It's a Black Moon day, one of the last during the Black Moon's jaunt through Leo, and one of the last of the rebirth stages that those with the Black Moon or Sun in Aquarius or Leo.  The energy brings out people's core fears.  People project those fears onto others.  Analyze what people are telling you about yourself from this perspective.  They are probably talking about themselves but don't know it.  We project what we cannot face about ourselves. 

Black Moon days try to trick us into feeling separated from Spirit by giving us illusions of fear.  New readers can look up their own Black Moon and the core fear identified by it in the Appendix of my book on the Black Moon - free on the Books tab at www.oraclereport.com.  This is information all wise owls need to know about themselves.  Know yourself, know the universe.

Face what you see about yourself today - the good and the not-yet-so-good.  Remember that the not so good is based in an illusion of fear - of a false belief in separation from Spirit.  Let the gentle warmth of the Goddess bring you back to where you need to be.

Crescent Moon Phase: persevere

Moon in Capricorn

Ruling Mahavidya: (The Lotus Goddess)

Skill: be the wise owl in inner contemplation and outer observance

Negative Imprint: demanding one's way, prejudice, projection of one's own feelings onto others, moody, denial

Positive Imprint: integration of aspects of ourselves, openness, expansion, self-respect, clearing of emotions, drawing on inner resources, heritage

This month's journey on the "sight-seeing bus filled with tourists" takes us along the water's edge today. 

The energetic signatures that most of the planets are delivering today involve water.  Water is symbolic of emotions, cleansing, the unconscious mind, and mutability (things being changed by outer forces).  Water can be placid or it can be whipped up into white caps.  Since we will likely see and/or experience the variety of these "watery" states today, we will invoke the shamanic skill of being like the wise owl in a tree in inner contemplation and outer observance.

This means we quiet our minds.  We direct (command) the swirling energies to whirl away from us by not engaging anything that tries to draw us into a power struggle, a dramatic conflict, an emotional tailspin, or lower-level vibrations.  We go to the inner spaces and we do this while we are fully active in our everyday lives.  We carry the mindset of the wise owl in the tree.  This is why it is called a skill.  It requires practice.  The goal is to be able to maintain it all day.

It's easier to do when you remember the "observe" element.  We aren't in stasis in our inner contemplation.  We are also alert to the liveliness of the world around us and the way Spirit wields the collective dream to impart messages, information, and wisdom to us.  So we are open to direct interaction from Spirit, but neutral to the matrix.

This month's ruling Wisdom Goddess is Kamala, who is also known as the Lotus Goddess because she brings passions back to life for blooming.  She is especially good at helping us make admissions to ourselves about our shadow sides.  When we integrate more of our shadow side, we become stronger.  Today she will attempt to mutate or change patterns of behavior that keep us from actualizing the brilliant light codes of our souls.  She draws something out of us, possibly something very deep, and then blesses us.

Regardless of what situations, feelings, and conditions are today, they are undergoing a transmutation into something else.  When we get to the Full Moon phase of this cycle, we will have gained more clarity and insight about these things.  Today is an important connecting piece on the journey.

Crescent Moon Phase: persevere

Moon in Capricorn

Ruling Mahavidya: Kamala (Goddess of Passion)

Skill: breathe deeply and breeze along

Negative Imprint: deep depressive chasms, feeling torn or that something has been torn from you leaving a hole, separation, inexperience, foolish risks

Positive Imprint: connection, answers, igniting passion, deep understanding, overcoming concerns, rebalancing, transformational healing at the most profound levels

According to the ancient Sabian Gnostics, the energy of this lunar month is like "a sight-seeing bus filled with tourists."  The dizzying, surreal feeling like you are in the "twilight zone" is strong today as we go deeper into our journey.

This month, each day takes us farther into a new mental landscape - new territory or a new world, if you will.  Since it is new, it is unfamiliar and, because we are a traumatized species working our way out of our trauma syndrome, what is unfamiliar is often fearful.  But when you are wise to what is happening and understand that change is underway, it is easier to breathe deeply and breeze along.

Today's energy brings redress/reorientation of societal order.  A balancing of power toward humanity is occurring.  Specifically, today we overcome distance, solve problems, find answers, and generally are driven toward better circumstances and conditions. 

You may be called upon to "translate" what is happening for others.  It isn't always necessary to go into facts and details to support a position or take on reality.  It is often enough to simply acknowledge that we are in the middle of a great change.  Most everyone recognizes or senses this.  What most everyone doesn't recognize is that it is an amazing time to be alive.  Mere acknowledgement of big change coupled with the wisdom that we are living in a historic time can flip someone's mindset from fear to wonderment.  This is honorable.

Today and tomorrow, Venus and the Sun are at the degree of "deep sea divers."  Stay on the bus; don't jump off the deep end.  This energy can take our thoughts to very, very deep places,  This is good for healing and for learning, but can also be very wounding.  

If you dive too deeply into painful places and find yourself having trouble getting back, ask the Mahavidya Kamala (Wisdom Goddess who is a face of Gaia Sophia) to assist you.  Kamala specializes in going into the depths of the underworld to scoop people up.  This energy is best utilized from the perspective of facing the future armed with your experiences of the past.  It can take you as widely as it can deeply.

The Sun continues massive activity with several phenomenal flares yesterday, but still no coronal mass ejections.  The Sun and Venus are traveling together right now and are completing their transit (energetic aspect) to the Chiron Point  - the degree where Chiron, the energy of wounding, healing, and teaching, was discovered.  The Earth is also completing its transit with the Chiron Point.  The Sun, in collaboration with Gaia Sophia, proffers the healing and learning elements of the Chiron Point energy, and has thus far minimized the potentially wounding elements.  These transits complete today.

This is a full-fledged Kamala kind of day.  In addition to being the Goddess of Assurance, she is also a Love Goddess, and a Goddess Who Ignites Passion.  Kamala breathes life into the corners of our hearts and minds.  She helps us remember what was forgotten and helps us find what we need.  She does this by helping us remember what makes us feel passionate about life.  If you need some help with that today, breathe deeply and ask for her help.

Let's stir passion today and bring in some loveliness to the world!

Crescent Moon Phase: persevere

Moon in Sagittarius

Ruling Mahavidya: Kamala (The Goddess of Assurance)

Skill: forward movement

Negative Imprint: staring at the past or lost opportunities, giving up, wasting time, power struggles, arrogance, carelessness, stubbornness, aggression, bombardment

Positive Imprint:  inner strength, resilience, stability, seeing what does not work and moving beyond it, deep connection, purging the past

Historically, today's energy combinations would bring us a barrage of difficult energies from "the matrix."  The Sabian symbols describe bearing the brunt of waves of assault.  These energies victimized us.

But things have changed, and if you've listened to the audio recording for the Scorpio lunar month, the audio I call "To Boldly Go...," you are wise to the fact that the wave of empowerment (an alignment of consciousness between Gaia Sophia, the Galactic Center, the Sun, and humanity) has overtaken the wave of victimization (the horde of the Archons).

Today's energy is massive, raw power to mold reality.  Since the wave that is aligned with the value of life has overtaken, we now just have to 1) realize it and 2) start to apply it.

Today is the day wise owls begin the practical application of wisdom.  It's also called practical magic.  Today, the matrix is the focus of bombardment.

What's the battle plan?  Integrate the concept that you have power.  You can think of it in several ways.  You've had a wand of wood you pretended (knew) had power in it and now it has been activated.  You played (knew) you were a superhero - costume and all - and now you've discovered you really do have a superpower.

Kamala, the Goddess of Assurance, in concert with The Universe attempts to help us understand our power.  Since our power is now a part of Team Gaia Sophia, we need to integrate our role and our connection in deeper ways.  All that is required is the intention.

The barrage that we send to the matrix to further the advance of its collapse comes from amping up the mindset we are holding (and thus projecting, broadcasting, or vibrating).  We respond to any abuses of power or power struggles.  Aggressive tendencies will pop up in different places.  When you see negativity (Archons) growing or if negativity (Archons) are attempting to creep into your sphere of activity, consider this mantra that was passed along to me by a very wise owl and has proven exceptionally effective for me:

"I broker no interference."

Many wise owls may feel a call to action today.  Many great leaders start out not knowing what the heck they are doing.  George Washington is among them.  It's not about knowing what to do.  It's about being willing to stand up and start doing something.  Others then follow and it works out.  But nothing happens if no one heeds the call.

We are changing the field of consciousness.  The beastliness in people and the beastliness of the matrix are becoming things of the past.  Purge the past.  Face forward.  Move forward.  Answer the call.  Boldly go where the universe is taking you.  Be alive.  Catch some Sun.  Find beauty.

At the end of the day, job well done.

(Internet issues today.  This report comes courtesy of a hotspot at a coffee house, so I don't have an audio to accompany it as I post this.)

Saturday, October 25 - Sunday, October 26, 2014

New Moon Phase: begin

Moon in Scorpio/Sagittarius

Ruling Mahavidya: Kamala (The Goddess of Assurance)

Skill: remain devoted to light

Many things are happening in the heavens this weekend. 

First, Mercury stations direct Saturday, moving forward in the sky once again after a jaunt of re-starts, re-do's, and re-working things to make them better.  Communications, travel, and electronics seem to give us issues the day a planet stations retrograde or direct, but this fades throughout Saturday.

Second, Mars, the God of Fire, moves into Sagittarius, a fire sign.  Masculine energy ignites with this configuration.  It's a good weekend to sit by a fire no matter where you are.  This time around, Sagittarius the Archer's arrow is set aflame by Mars.  Engage the sacred masculine inside yourself and take aim at what you want - your wish, your desire for yourself and the world - and then shoot that blazing arrow at it.  This is a powerful visualization for the New Moon phase and it's trajectory will actually continue into the next lunar month.

Third, the Sun continues massive activity with an X3-class flare yesterday.  Spaceweather.com reports sunspot 2192 "remains the largest and most active sunspot of the current solar cycle.  By far."  But still no coronal mass ejections.  This is a blessing from the divine being that is our Sun.  A CME from an X-class flare would cause massive mutation and spread of viruses.

These are all big stories, but here at the Oracle Report, the headline is that the Sun, the Earth, Venus, and the asteroid Pallas Athena (which is archetypal energy of wisdom and skill) are making aspects to the Chiron Point.  This means we are in for healing and learning this weekend.  There is the element of "wounding" with Chiron, so that is present, but it really goes far beyond that. 

The Sabian symbol for the Chiron Point (the degree in the sky where Chiron was discovered) is "a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow."  Chiron seeks to enrich us and bring light.  In one of the myths about Chiron (who is also archetypally Merlin, Gandalf, and a little bit of Alfred the "Butler" from Batman), Chiron gives of himself so that fire - light - would be returned to humanity.  He was bold and went where few had.  Many Oracle Report readers feel kindred with Chiron.  Like Chiron, we are driven by a mission.

This weekend we will aim our arrows for fire and light (and maybe a combination of both if we are lucky) and affirm our wishes for the future.  We want the rainbow.  We understand that situations, conditions, and circumstances that come about this weekend are designed to heal and teach us something about ourselves.  Let light enter those places deep inside you.  Be assured that the Wisdom Goddess Kamala has your back.  She doesn't leave anyone behind so you can be bold.

It is an act of power this weekend to remain devoted to the light.  It's quite dark out there as the matrix falls, but we have ample abilities by which we see.
