Moon Moves into Aquarius and Visits the Threesome: Chiron, Neptune and Jupiter (July 8, 2009)

Since earliest time humans were living in the predictive and reliable order of day and night, the changing seasons and the waxing and waning of the Moon.

Observing the changing heavenly stars would provide us with some meaningful observations of rhythm and order. That is why astrology can support us with deep insights and a feeling of choice in the participation of an orderly organized universe.

This Moon is still very close to full with a bounty of feelings moving through us. It is especially exciting and colorful in the sign of Aquarius.

Aquarius is the 11th Sign in the Zodiac

Aquarius is the second to the last sign in the archetypical wheel of the zodiac, which is symbolizing evolution and growth on all levels of existence. One circle of learning is almost coming to an end. Therefore they feel a deep inner connection to humankind and love to contribute but on their own terms.

The sign of Aquarius is opposite and complementary of the sign of Leo and is opposing the king or the ruling forces in society. They carry the responsibility for change for the better and shaking up the status quo.

Aquarius: the Daring Visionary, Rebel, Role Model, and Artist (Jan 21–Feb 19) is ruled by the planet Uranus. It represents the element air and is considered a masculine sign.

Contrary to rule-bound Capricorn and Leo, Aquarians are such revolutionary thinkers that they are said to herald a new world, the Age of Aquarius. Indeed, the social revolution of the 1960s and 1970s represents the nonconformist, idealistic Aquarians and their rejection of the established order. Their inventiveness leads them to great discoveries in the sciences, as well as great works in the arts.

The keyword for Aquarians is “new” and “freedom”, which leads to a life full of change and innovation. Their life path may appear to take many detours as they are drawn to new ideas, interests, and ways of living.

They do like to participate in groups of like minded people bound together by a common cause, but they always kind of skirting along the outer parameters. They don’t like regulations or rules and perceive themselves as different from the others and therefore not bound by rules. They take on leadership roles if they believe in the cause as long as they don’t feel tied down by it.

They are great friends to have for animated talks and leading edge philosophy. They are living a life with the strength to live outside of conventions of society, which often results in becoming a trendsetter and model for others. In general you can say Aquarians are colorful and very interesting people to hang out with!

Moon Moves into Aquarius

The Moon is our emotional connection to the world. We are often talking about the actual Moon position in the zodiac because it gives us a fast update of our potential emotional journey. How we feel is at the center of our being and it makes or breaks our day!

With the Moon moving through this sign, which is lively and constantly reinventing itself, we can participate a little in that colorful self-expression and maybe dare to respond with more spunk to challenges then usual.

Often we are so caught up in our doing and daily activities that we don’t stop for even a moment and listen inside. Often we are not aware of what is really going on inside and how we feel. And then we might wake up suddenly to the reality of something really going wrong in our life. Might it be in our relationship or at the work place, because we have not been paying attention.

But our feelings are our internal guidance system to let us know if we are in alignment with our higher self. Paying close attention to the Moon wandering through the different signs of the zodiac can teach us to use that potentiality for our benefit and to become more aware of how we feel in any given moment.

Suggestion

So I invite you to have a look inside of yourself and into your life and see if you are ready for some changes! Decide which area seems to have gone a little stale. Maybe your love relationship could use some fresh attention? Maybe you have not gotten together with your friends for a while because you got so caught up with life?  How about your kids? When was the last time you took them out for a little adventure, interrupting the normality of your life?

Pick one area in your life and push the envelope and step outside your comfort zone. Do something a little crazy!

Where would you like to have more strength to stand up for yourself and be who you are without hiding?

The Threesome: Chiron, Neptune and Jupiter

So more planets are in a sign so stronger the impact of it is. The conjunction of these three planets Chiron, Neptune and Jupiter in Aquarius will be with us well into the summer with Jupiter going retrograde in the middle of June. Have a look at my earlier article about them and the implications.
