If you are reading this, congratulations! We made it through December 21, 2012!
We had a grand Winter Soltice Celebration Friday here in the woods on the Columbia Gorge in Washington. The God of Abundance (Jupiter) is in Gemini, the sign of neighbors this week so any activity that gets us all together is blessed and protected. My friend Dan builds a huge bonfire on Soltice Night each year and opens his house to the community. This year about forty people braved the snow and arrived with food and drink to share plus clothes and jewelry and other items to give and trade. I love this idea of bringing things to trade to these equinox festivals. Its become a major part of the tradition and people now always make a point of bringing fun things that inspire talk and stories. Oh, and this year a couple of jolly souls came dressed as Mayans!
We all took delight in discussing the predictions of the Mayan calendar and comparing notes. Did anyone experience Enlightenment or a visit to the much rumored 5th Dimension? Nothing too dramatic was reported here but there were some curious co-incidences and syncronicities. Twice in the evening people called just as our host was talking about them and three people arrived wearing the exact same outfit. The general conversation seemed to flow particularly well as if we all might have been one consciousness.
If this date really did mark the beginning of a whole new era, the key changes I noticed came about in the nature of the card readings I was giving.
I have been doing these annual readings for several years now. Always the cards have pointed out important events coming up in the year ahead. This is particularly seen in the card that falls in the "Upcoming Influences" position. The card that lands there provides some important clue or omen for the near future. On this Soltice however, these Future cards were all uncharacteristically vague. The High Priestess and The Hanged Man - cards that encourage patience and waiting - came up again and again until we were all wondering if there really was something to the prediction the world was coming to an end after all. Meanwhile, the cards that described where the person receiving the reading was at that precise moment were all startlingly accurate. For example, The Pregnant Empress card came up for a woman who is expecting her first child and The Chariot reversed came up for a fellow who had walked over because his car battery went dead. This leads me to believe the Mayan message for all of us this year is:
God knows where you are right now but the future is not here yet. Take 2013 one day at a time!
Significant astrological events to watch for this week:
Monday Dec. 24. CHRISTMAS EVE:
The moon in Taurus will trine lively Mars in Capricorn until far into the evening. Wonderful energy for getting everything done - but good luck getting the kids to bed early!
Tuesday Dec. 25 CHRISTMAS DAY:
The moon in Gemini combines with the blessings of Jupiter. This could be a very pleasant holiday for many people as Gemini rules brothers and sisters. The moon/Jupiter combo here says family gatherings go well - we feel more tolerant, Jupiter gives us space.
Wednesday Dec. 25.
Moon continues in Gemini allowing talk and good cheer to continue throughout the day!
Thursday and Friday Dec. 26 and 27.
The moon squares Uranus all day Thursday while building to a full moon and then opposition to Pluto Friday morning. Impulsive action and power struggles? The results of poor holiday eating choices coming out under the full moon? Fortunately the last aspect the moon makes in Cancer is a trine to Saturn giving good back up support for New Year's Diet Resolutions.
THE DAY TO WATCH:
The sun conjuncts Pluto Sunday Dec.30. This aspect signifies Death (Pluto) and Rebirth (The sun). Having this aspect so close to New Year's Day this year adds a helpful nudge to release the past and welcome the new!
Happy Holidays,
