On June 15, 2011, there is a Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse at 4:34pm at 24 degrees 23 minutes of Sagittarius.
Eclipses are transmitters of energy and they are turning points. I will keep this to an explanation of what the energies are saying instead of too much astrological terminology.
In the last 2 years the Eclipses were in the signs of Cancer and Capricorn. This brought our attention and focus in a more escalated way upon jobs, security, real estate, home and family concerns. Major family events may have taken place: births, deaths, weddings, and other instances that bring family together.
The Eclipses are now focusing for the next year and a half in the signs of Gemini and Sagittarius. Mercury the ruler of Gemini and Virgo is important for this phase of development and unfoldment. Mercury rules the mind and thinking and speaking. Communication and information is now its focus. Our communications with: ourselves, each other, language, other countries, the internet and all that it offers, our thinking or lack of awareness thought processes, transportation, religion, and travel local or abroad are highlighted.
The opportunities are amazing for growth in these areas. Yet there are pitfalls. How will we deal with this mass of information is key. Will we let the intellect run the show? Will we be in touch with a heart centered approach and a higher minded way of expression in our lives? The lowest form of communication is negative thinking, speaking and gossip. It is important to keep the mind focused on more interesting elevating conversations. Learn about one another and make good connections. Because Mercury rules the mind and thinking, it’s highly important to focus on the best and keep the mind on positive thoughts continually. The mind is creative and will reproduce whatever thoughts you repeatedly give it. It’s also a good time to get into a practice of quieting the mind. See the best and encourage growth. To understand how the mind works more fully to experience the best of these Eclipse cycles over the next 2 years I have written an article called, “It’s much better to speak with our Soul Voice than our mind voice.”
What do we need to know? There is so much information out there. We need to filter out what is important to us. Mercury is at the end of the sign of Taurus. The end of a sign brings a kick with it to finish up with circumstances. The message coming from Taurus is take care of what we have. The sign Taurus, rules: money, our values, our self worth, and the economy. It’s the practical no frills down to earth basics. It’s about sustainability. We are impressed upon to live greener, to simplify, and to appreciate what we have and take care of it.
The economic problems of the last few years has increased our focus and thinking on our values. We are learning that the mind does not have al the information on what steps to take. Those who speak on the stock markets are just making their most informed guesses. We are being given lots of information with theses Eclipses in Gemini and Sagittarius to improve our thinking, money and finances, and know more about what our values mean to each of us.
It is necessary to become aware of what we are thinking and saying. Thoughts become things. Think positive energizing thoughts to yourself and others. What you think about is what you will attract, and now this is happening even faster than we thought was possible. Gossiping is a low energy vibration and will boomerang back to you. Bring out what is best in another and you’ll attract this in yourself. Gemini is a dual sign and what you look at in the mirror is reflected back at you. This can occur because the other person is a reflection of you and your thoughts. Think kind loving thoughts about yourself. This Eclipse brings with it a better awareness of your philosophy on what you believe, and it will require us to have better relationship skills and better communication skills. With Gemini it’s all about the words, thoughts, and the mind. Let your words be powerful for the good of yourself and others. Sagittarius looks towards expansiveness and travel abroad as well as with the mind, while being honest, and jovial. How can we live together peacefully? It is time to live from authenticity.
The planet Mars is the activator of the Eclipse. Mars enters Gemini on June 20th at 10:50 pm EDT. This is important because it is about 15 hours before the Summer Solstice on the 21st. It brings in the Summer Solstice in with driving energy. Mars crosses the path of 11 degrees of Gemini, which is the degree of the Solar Eclipse that occurred on June 1st, on the 4th, through the 6th of July. Be aware of what is going on around you. Gemini rules your neighborhood, your environment, your day-to-day local, your surroundings, your community and what is in your vicinity. Be watchful, attentive, alert, observant, and heedful. Become aware!
On July 1st there is a Solar Eclipse, at 9 degrees Cancer 12 minutes. New Moon 4:54 am EDT.
A Solar Eclipse stays active for a couple of years. On July 1st the last Solar Eclipse in Cancer in this series will occur and Mercury will be at 29 degrees of Cancer and at that moment it is reactivating that major Eclipse of 2 years ago. The issues return around family, home and security. We are to focus on our families, take care of them, as well as our global family. We can re-connect with lost family members and friends. There may have been major changes within your family over the last 2 years. If so this is a good opportunity to allow, accept, heal, and settle down. All focus points to creating a loving world to live in. Think about what you wish to experience. Communicate, write it out, and allow it to take hold.
