SEPTEMBER 16, 2016 HARVEST MOON
The Harvest Moon is a Full Moon Eclipse in Pisces peaking at
3:06 PM ET. This is a huge moon that seems to hang low over the earth and which
has already brought its own kind of title wave of energy deep within. This 3rd
eclipse in sequence, the lunar in Aquarius in August, followed by a solar
eclipse in Virgo September 1, and now this one today, has mixed with the ★Saturn-Neptune
18 year cycle that has a major impact on your psyche and inner mind. This is
like a strong undercurrent or undertow that pulls your conscious mind into
things of the past, emotion, and all manner of seemingly otherworldly matters.
I say “seemingly otherworldly” because a dream, a memory, or a feeling isn’t
necessarily only in the mind but a real energy frequently dictating behavior
and how you react in your everyday life. Pisces governs the oceans, the subconscious,
sacrifice, spirituality, major institutions where people are housed for
specific purposes, other lifetimes, and much more. This
eclipse will be strong until the next ★New Moon in Libra in September 30. The
cosmic connection is a powerful impact on all life on Earth. Humankind is
especially susceptible due to being separate from much of nature by virtue of
free will and the ability to make choices in behavior. What has been, is, and
will continue to happen is response from emotion, feeling and inner impulse. Some
behave without restraint and on impulse that causes uneasiness and an unsettled
environment. The greater energy is an open door to those other realities that
allows for ease of connecting to entities with which you have relationships
such as personal guides and teachers, relatives, and others with whom you have affinity.
You can gain self-knowledge and also wisdom by exploring the vast and unlimited
worlds through your mind. The symbol I’m using today is a mermaid. She’s a
mystical being living under the water and an ideal representation of Pisces and
the Moon. The alternate energy is the Lorelei or Siren that lures ships to them
through their sound of mystical song and once lost in the fog, crash into
rocks. There are always two sides of each sign that is the outer life of
activity and the esoteric energy of spirit. The choice
is to commune with the mermaid for wise guidance or follow the lure of the
Siren. Intuition is a great guidance system that helps you to sense what to do
and when. Those without forethought and sensitivity to the reality of action
and reaction are unpredictable and behave in ways that are often annoying. Whatever
is within is brought to the surface. As your own emotions and sensitivities are
brought forth you best serve yourself by tending them through time to
contemplate your own motivations and direction along with seeking guidance from
higher sources. Due to the solar
eclipse, the eclipse energies are ongoing well into November.
