What an adventure. We've just experienced a major passage with the eclipses and are now approaching a momentous alignment in late October. The cosmos has plenty more astro offerings in store before the year is out.
The Lunar Eclipse in late August and the September 11 Solar Eclipse shattered longstanding illusions and ushered in a new era. Right now Mars is facing off with Pluto just as the Lord of the Underworld transits the Galactic Center. Jupiter, the Guru, squares Uranus, the Awakener. Initiation is the name of the game.
On the Autumn Equinox today, we begin four days of celebration in the Northern Hemisphere. (In the Southern Hemisphere, new life emerges with the Spring Equninox.) The harvest, abundance, a multitude of blessings manifesting in our lives by the moment. This is a new day, a time of infinite possiblities, quantum growth, instantaneous transformation. Nothing is like it used to be, and never will be again.
The Autumn Equinox - known as Harvest Home or Mabon in pagan traditions - is a point of balance in the solar year. The Sun enters Libra, sign of the scales. We yearn for justice, balance, harmony. Corn signifies the harvest, abundance, fertility in our lives. In the Earth's journey around the Sun, darkness and light are equally expressed on this special day. As daylight begins to fade, we prepare now for winter, even as we celebrate fall's harvest.
The energy crescendoes as the enormous Harvest Moon rises Tuesday night. She hovers in her perfection, ripe and full, illuminating our deepest knowing. Celebrate with harvest ritual, the grain and the staff, connecting in spirit with others around the globe who choose a new day. Manifest and create, more joy, by the light of the Harvest Moon.
