Raise The Bar
Today’s dawning was magnificent. A waning moon hung in the azure sky above a sparkling Venus. The warm glow of the autumn sun crept through the sea mists. The birds and I sang and talked about breakfast and the unusual heat.
Today is magical with stellar energies. Neptune and Venus are conjunct in Aquarius and by this evening, the Moon will team up with Chiron there as well. Mercury and Uranus are conjunct in Pisces; the planetary Karmic North Node is conjunct the Sun in Aries. As a prelude to the New Moon Eclipse in Aries on the 29th March, today’s events present us with a stunning planetary dance with the stars. Four partners all doing their thing.
Today is the day to think about what to wish for, which is a revelation of one’s true values. It is the day to state, aloud, to oneself, what is wanted for all humanity, for the planetary world, for our next round of the Sun.
As we approach the beginning of the Solar Year’s Eclipse – that will close the corridor we’ve been cocooned within for 2 weeks – we can prepare for the exit into the world with a clearer idea and understanding of the human condition generally, and who/what we are, individually.
The Aries energies trigger our impulse to Life, spurred on by the Light of Life itself. The urge to liberate the Spirit within, that consummates our soul/body existence for here and now, is burning away any dross and density that has prevented us from being free to love being human. The development and expression of Higher Self/ Mind is the goal of this current evolutionary thrust … externalizing through a group consciousness, and manifesting in how we relate to our world and each other.
We speak of Light (consciousness), Love (relationship) and Will (energetic directing) as the triplicity required for fulfilling existence.
The Aries Eclipse shall enable us to peek behind the veil that has hidden our true Selves, from our own self and each other. It shows us the seeds that can be sown – our own spirited gifts to the world. It also shows us arid and unfertile land, wherein previous seeds are dormant, awaiting new conditions to spring forth into being.
The key to all healing, all growth, starts with the knowledge that we can always start again. To do so with a greater awareness of our true natures, will surely lead to more authentic relationships and a more sustainable world.
Raising the bar seems like a greater challenge: but then, going around in the same old circles of what we know we can manage/control already, is a blatant disregard for our true natures:
We are a creative, inspired and lively species.
Betwixt and Between

We are in a Corridor, between eclipses.
The Equinox (equal day/night) is in phase as we lead into Aries on 20th March.
We are also in the Venus Corridor that began 2003/4 and takes us through the vortex until 2012.
Macro/micro, we are in between what was, and what is yet to become.
From now until the Aries Eclipse on the 29th March, whilst reviewing and reflecting with Mercury and Jupiter Retrograde, we have a stellar envelope within which we can spiral even closer into who/what we truly are … as souls, as humans, as a life beings.
The pic (link below) of a nebula close to the Galactic Centre, looks like a DNA helix, On Thursday 23rd March our Moon aligns with Pluto, which is aligning with that – OUR – Galactic Centre. Right on the Equinox. Yes, the greater clocks of our Universe are indeed, ordered, precise, neat and cyclical. Our Moon triggers our instinctual selves; Pluto, our ability to transform and evolve. Conscious awareness and intention assists us personally and collectively. May collective vision and personal insight also align.
With thanks to our intrepid scientists …

It’s raining in the early hours of the morn – what a blessing after a hot, dry and breathless 38 degrees autumn Sunday. Melbourne is celebrating a Labour Day holiday which doesn’t really seem relevant anymore, but we Ozzies love our Long Weekend so enjoy the Moomba festival spirit as the city lights up for the Commonwealth Games.
Queen Elizabeth and Prince Phillip have arrived: she looks lovely in golden yellow and white, spritely for her age. A subdued republican Movement tentatively voices its interest in our coming of age and claiming independence. What was once a vigorous movement, is muted now, as sentiment, respect and comfort umbrella an insecure populace. Is there really a Common Wealth of Nations or is this just another Athletics Meet?
So much is emerging from the hidden underground of feelings, beliefs, customs, values and ideals. We are being confronted by outmoded religious doctrines and capitalistic lifestyles and question whether they really serve us, our planet and our humanity.
We don’t feel comfortable with competition anymore so we refer to ‘personal best’ in athletics. Workplace Reform seems to be taking us backward into more enslavement and less time for leisure and family. Health and Medical Practice has become too expensive to maintain and is in Crisis. Doctrines and Dogmas, Rules and Regulations try to guide human behaviour but end up suffocating the freedom and diversity for which we yearn. So much of our Society depends upon unpaid and voluntary labour yet Economics is the basis of Social Policy. Gods and Judges, Politicians and Scientists don’t seem to understand what it is to be human. Our young are conscripted so early into schools that suffocate the natural buzz for learning and the spirit of curiosity and wonder that is natural to children.
What is Happening?
The moon has moved into Virgo in the build up to a Full Moon Eclipse at 10.35 am on Wednesday. With Mercury retrograde in Pisces until 26th March, and Jupiter retrograde in Scorpio until 6th July, we are entering a time of review and reflection. Being water signs, there is lots of emotion to be explored.
As we lift the veils and peek beneath the surface of daily activity, may we find within, the Light that is stronger than doubts and fears and a Love for Life that lingers and beckons us onwards.
This is a mutable and poignant time, and our ability to adapt amidst changing energies is an expression of that which we know to be The Truth … the eternal seed of Spirit is within each lifeform … we are all in this together.
The Three R’s
It used to be reading, writing and ‘rithmetic – the basics for a human child to acquire thru education. It still applies individually to develop the mental body.
But we are participating in the Grand Finale of the Pisces Era, and welcoming in the Aquarian Age. Ahead in time, there will be are those born with the emotional and mental body integrated as part of the package. Aquarius is the Group, Soul, Monadic in modality. It tends to function thru critical mass ( not majority), in Collective Consciousness, and Humanitarian values assimilating the egoic individualism of Leo.
For the Human Species as a whole, and our little civilisations, the 3 R’s are Renaissance, Revolution, and Reformation. The focus is shifting from Past/Present to Present/Future. Revolution comes from being, acting, thinking like throw forwards, not throw-backs. Protesters can have a profound effect by standing quietly in the evening twilight or dawn mists, with lighted candles. Presence is enough: violent and noisy protests aggravate and inflame, inviting an equal and opposite reaction. And anyway, the Revolution/fighting thing is passe: Reformation and Renaissance are Life Giving …
Duality is out of fashion. Anything built on such models are embarrassingly transparent. Boomerangs DO come back to you. The conceptual bubble built and nurtured encompasses all therein. The Highest Good for All Concerned works more effectively than an entangled web of Politics, Economy and shifting values.
The activating of the Cosmic seed within is being interpreted thru all religions and creed as the fulfillment of the prophecies, that stage of the journey, the actualisation of heritage, a quantum leap in evolution … whatever you perceive thru human lens … it’s happening.
The New Moon in Pisces on February 27th/28th is now expanding into the Eclipse of Pisces Sun, Full Virgo Moon on March 14/15th. Our Divine Seed in crystal formation.
Qualities or soul characteristics of the 5th Kingdom are: Curiosity, Creativity, Honesty and Wonder.
Huuuuuuummmmmmmmm lots ………
