    It's from 2010 - but it's still a great find!
    UK-based Luke Wyman's Whitevinyl released Solar Beat a music box looped 
    using the orbital frequencies of our own solar system. 
    It's one of those simple concepts where astrophysics is translated into a pleasing ambient loop soundtrack       
    that's more profound than your average web diversion.
   
    I'm in love with this!
                                                    
                                                      

 

 

 

                     Uranus and Psyche Square Pluto - 
                   RETRACING THE PIECES OF US

Pluto is going retrograde in Capricorn ( Soooo Hades )  from tomorrow, April 16th 2015.
Translation = time for a deeper look inside.

Uranus and Psyche are in conjunction in Aries - ruling the HEAD - translation = thinking about impulses.


Let me explain the mythological story about Psyche first....
Psyche is going into the Underworld ( Pluto) - it is the last trial Venus imposed on her.
If she brings the box with Persephone's beauty back from Hades with her, so Venus can refresh herself with more beauty - she'll finally be able to be with the son of Venus - Cupid ( Eros ) who is - immortal.
But the dangers for Psyche are enormous and unlike to Cupid, Psyche is a mortal.
The only reason why she went to risk her life in the Underworld, is to prove her love for Cupid and reunite with him despite their differences.
This is actually an inward trial of inner beauty in ourselves, that we often doubt.
And as we know it, being in the head ( Psyche) without the heart ( Eros ) - is leading us nowhere.

The moment Psyche opened the box ( which she was ordered not to ) -  is the Uranus moment which is active in us now. It's about not obeying to any other authority than our own.
Of course, Psyche falls in eternal sleep after following her curiousity - but because Cupid / Eros / Heart - loves her, he wakes her up and make her immortal too.

Translation = Pluto retrograde Square Uranus and Psyche - is about an inward recollection of our scattered pieces and it is upon us to finally see that challenges are here - we should stop doubting about who we really are - so we can hear our heart whispering and waking us up.  
That is the path toward completion. 

Oh...and did I mention that Mars is in Trine with Pluto....

     Full Moon Eclipse  + ERIS-Daughter of Void + Uranus / 
       ALL in Aries = UNEXPECTED OUTBURSTS of FRUSTATIONS 
     Opposing
     Sun + Venus + True Node / ALL in Libra = LIGHT UP YOUR  TRUTH
     or //
     The 2nd TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE Test

October 8th 2014. 

Please mind that people, animal and nature get restless around Full Moon.
Full Moon in Aries - is not an easy Moon for the head.
A Total Eclipse of Full Moon in Aries - is even less easy.

It is a second Full Moon Total Eclipse in a Tetrad of 4. ( the first occurred on April 15th 2014. - See NASA link here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gzgSuJM5O8 )

Remember April 2014.?  It was a month full of surprises, shifts and we had to adapt on a lot of changes. That was the period when our FLEXIBILITY TRAINING started.
At that time, the Sun was in Aries and the Moon in Libra. Opposite of how they are standing now. April was about breaking free and showing our individuality and beliefs. 
Now is time to appy that knowledge about ourselves in a group, with others. 

In astrological terms - the Moon Eclipse in Aries is causing UNCONTORLABLE BURSTS of frustration in order to LIGHT UP OUR TRUTH. We realize that what we have learned so far, needs to be apliable in experience with others. 
We might feel and uncontrollable need to make an action in order to chill our head.
This is a good step forward, only if we pay attention not to hurt the other/ the one we see as the - opposition. 
The hardest of all tasks is to understand the opposition - why is that person/ group/ environment- the source of our frustrations? 
Is the frustration caused by the other person / group / enviorment, or is caused by our fear of not being embraced by them?
Are we frustrated because we believe someone else is going to take what we need from us? What is that we relly want from others?
It is like being a child again...and being able to hear his needs.

We might feel hurt, we might feel envy, we might feel that the OTHER is gaining more than us.
We might also judge the injustice, primitivism and hypocrisy and become aggressive too.
Even if you think your understanding is superior to someone else's...please, do STOP.
The October 8th 2014. or The Second Total Lunar Eclipse is an EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE TEST.

Remeber - FLEXIBILITY = INELlIGENCE.


The dwarf planet Eris is conjucting the Total Moon Eclipse and Uranus in Aries and opposing the Sun (Hera) Venus (Aphrodite) and The North Node in Libra (Athens).
Eris is trowing her Golden Apple in between us again - causing pesonal wars and discords, hurts of our vanity and values.
In Mythology, she is the godess of discord and strife. 
She stirs up jealousy and envy to cause fighting and anger among men. 
At the wedding of Peleus and Thetis, all the gods were invited with the exception of Eris, and enraged at her exclusion, she spitefully caused a quarrel among the goddesses by tossing the Golden Apple of Discord ( with inscribed "To The Fariest" ) in the midst of the feast of the gods, sparking a vanity-fueled dispute among Hera, Athena and Aphrodite that led to the Trojan War ( see "The Judgement of Paris" story).
Eris or Discoridia- is the oppostition od Harmonia.
Similar to Aries / Libra nature, and is accentuating the questions of: 
I versus The Other / Group
Loneliness versus Relatonships 
War versus Harmony
                                     

Are we really alone in all this CHAOS ?
Or are this Astronomical / Astrological events just trying to evoke the feeling of connection between us?
As you know, opposition is always the same line. 
The Head and the Tail of Ouroboros - are making the Circle. 
This events might be a reminder of our TREADED Minds( Aries) / Emotions (Libra).
It might also be the right time to understand that our frustrations are solvable- if we mind our thoughts, emotions and actions - as emotionally mature and responsible individuals do.
That said, the 2nd test in a Tetrad of this TOTAL ECLIPSEs --- The EMOTIONAL MATURITY test - would be passed.

Also, mind that Mercury just went retrograde in Scorpio on Ocotober 4th - so it's a great time to RE-THINK and RETROSPECT - but don't get hard on yourself...
Bite the bullet.

                                                     Best way to start-a-new
                                                 Is to fail miserably
                                                 Fail at loving
                                                 And fail at giving
                                                 Fail at creating a flow
                                                 Then realign the whole
                                                 And kick into the start hole

New Moon in Virgo - August 25-26-27/2014 //
Time for New Routine + Procrastination Free


Because of the two sheaves of wheat, one of which is marked by the bright star Spica, Virgo constellation is representing fertility from Babylonian times on. In Greek and Roman culture, Virgo is associated to their goddess of wheat and agriculture - Demeter/ Ceres.

Astrology wise, when the New Moon falls under the constellation of Virgo - 
it can bring a lot of new fruits. The questions are : have we grown enough?
                                                                          is our product ready yet?
                                                                          are we ready?
If not, it is time to patiently plan steps toward prosperity and understand the natural process of each thing first. Step by step.

We also have the New Moon in Virgo conjucting the Sun in Virgo- which doubles the organizing and being disciplined.

We started a seeding process from March 21th this year. The aliment of the Sun and Moon in Aries were impulsive and unpredictable at the start, bringing us a lot of changes.
Somehow, from 21th of March on, we started a new year, where we constantly got to know the Conscious (Sun) and Unconscious (Moon) sides of ourselves. 
The beginning of each Sign (starting from Aries on) - governed by Sun/Moon conjunction- is enhancing the energy of the sign. 
Like that, it is showing us how to incorporate it in our everyday living- the structure of the sign involved- by working on the things that the sign emanates as something important.

In Virgo, it is about hard work and serving others. Being humble. Have order. Understand nature, animals and plants. Appreciate health and have healthy habits.
By doing that, we can gain the Sun and Moon Gems and Gifts. Gain the Spica fruit.

          Virgo as depicted in Urania's Mirror, a set of constellation cards published in London c.1825.





When Moon is in Virgo - it is usually time of being hard on ourselves. Then our confidence start to suffer. The Mercurial Maiden is thinking of what have she been doing so far and what to do next, and is making us ask ourselves those questions. 
Wherever she resides in our chart- we may be highly critical of our flaws and feel inertia.  
New Moon is time to let go of the self-sabotage way and start to do things the best you can.  
Relax and then - DO!

Peak of Meteor Shower - AUGUST 12/13 -2014 

 

 

 

 

               From Masterpieces of Industrial Art & Sculpture at the International Exhibition, 1862,
                                            Day & Son, London, Lithographers to the Queen


The Perseid meteor shower, one of the brighter meteor showers of the year, occur every August, peaking around August 9-13. Consisting of tiny space debris from the comet Swift-Tuttle, the Perseids are named after the constellation, Perseus. This is because, their radiant or the direction of which the shower seems to come from,
lies in the same direction as Perseus. The constellation lies in the north-eastern part of the sky, so the meteor shower is mostly visible in the northern hemisphere.

As with many meteor showers, the visible rate is greatest in the pre-dawn hours, since the side of the Earth nearest to turning into the sun scoops up more meteors as the Earth moves through space. Most Perseids disappear while at heights above 80 kilometres (50 mi).

On August 10th 2014. - we can also see the Full Moon reaching the point in its orbit that is closest to the Earth, known as perigee. The supermoon will be up to 14% bigger and 30% brighter than other full moons during the year.
The Lunar light my take off some backdrop required to see faint meteors, but it will still be an divine celestial show to see. Enjoy!
