Cosmic Weather – New Moon in Sagittarius & 12/12 Stargate
Vision, Cheerfulness and the Triumph of Hope over Experience
The
remedy is the experience. This is a dangerous liaison. The comedy, is
that it’s serious. This is a strange enough new play-on-words. – Jason
Mraz
Hello friends and welcome to the last New Moon of
2015. What a trip, right?! This year has been something else. The line
about “The triumph of hope over experience” was from a joke that GB
(Merle “Giggling Buddha” Smith) used to like to tell. It was the
punchline to this question: What do you call someone’s third marriage?
Indeed.
Just like last month, this new moon is in the power
window of a Stargate, the 12/12. The three Stargates of 11/11, 12/12 and
1/11 are important to further activate the energies that will carry us
in 2016 and beyond. I know it’s hard to forget 11/11 and the subsequent
havoc that followed it. It’s only been a month, but what a difference a
month can make. As the world gets more polarized, strange and
goose-stepping by the moment, we are again reminded of our power as
creators. Sagittarius is about IDEAS, communication, expansion and
higher education. To expand our views, it’s often not consciousness
alone that always can do it, information is very helpful too. One of the
mantras for this New Moon will be: “Knowledge is power.”
Some interesting and pertinent food for thought here:
If
we’ve given the press (even the erstwhile respectable press) that
(high) level of uncritical control over our emotions, we’ve given it the
power to shape our view of reality. And, it follows, to determine our
reality. Question everything. Even that which feels most emotionally
fervent and righteous. Maybe especially that. – Christopher
DeGraffenreid
In one of my posts two weeks or so ago, I
recommended that folks become “relentlessly cheerful.” Sagittarius
energy can be exactly that and can go a bit out of bounds especially
when the rose-colored glasses refuse to come off. Of course this can be a
potentially dangerous thing, as sometimes it’s important to be
practical and realistic. For this new moon however, I highly recommend
that we keep them ON and I’ll tell you why. New Moons are all about
sowing seeds for the next moon cycle, especially. The last New Moon of
any given calendar year is also important to set the cosmic stage so to
speak for the New Year to come. In times that carry a dour vibe, to be
cheerful may be viewed as a revolutionary act: Be revolutionary. It’s
what the world needs right now. That along with a big ol’ dose of love
and light, which tends to travel alongside with cheerfulness. Don’t
worry if you’re not exactly feeling it right away either, these energies
might need to grow on you a bit.
The Sabian Symbol for this New Moon is: In
an old-fashioned northern village, men cut the ice of a frozen pond for
use during the Summer. The foresighted use of natural resources to
supply future needs.
This ties in beautifully for this new moon
as it concerns itself with disseminating information from the year that
has passed and it looking with hope and foresight into the future. This
new moon energy can help us remain positive and find the wisdom in our
experience. No matter the difficulties that we have experienced, we are
still here and to be here is to have faith and courage. As this powerful
year comes to an end, it is customary and wise to think on the next one
and what we’d like to manifest and experience.
This New Moon is traveling with the
12/12 (Christ Consciousness) Stargate
which gives it even greater potency. Energetically and physically we
are already being primed for these energies with potential “cold”
symptoms, fatigue, emotional releases, change in sleeping patterns and
increased body aches. The main chakras that I feel will be impacted by
these energies are: the Ajna (third eye,) Heart and Crown. Of course,
your own experience may vary.
Spiritually this weekend has the
potential to be a VERY powerful time. There will also be the folks
getting caught in the shadow of these energies which is soapboxing and
dogma. That’s okay, we can simply change the channel. Since Sagittarius
is a messenger, be on the lookout for signs and symbols both on the
literal and metaphorical level.
As far as the Cosmic Tune, it’s
an appropriate title and it feels right to get some vintage Billy Idol
(Sun in Sagittarius) up in here to rock us out as we wrap up the year.
Happy
New Moon and Stargating friends! Be sure to tune back in for the 2015
year-end wrap up and 2016 forecast to be posted by 12/30/15.
NOTE: The New Moon in Sagittarius is 12/11/15 at 2:29 am PST/5:29 am EST.
