The Grand Irrationality set into motion again throws the irrational, obsessive-compulsive elements into play, whether within our personality or from external sources. The last major article explaining this on-going weirdness was Spiritual Astrology in July-August-September 2009 Pt. 4 - The Grand Irrationality and Forks in the Road for All Signs - An Overview (more in part 5 that followed this one). I'll be composing the next Spiritual Astrology series when I get a minute or two to do so. Just too much going on.....

Because this involves so many planets, you can bet that all areas of our lives will again be sources of important character choices and changes that will determine our future in significant ways. The T-square will release much of this since Mars is the release of Solar septile energies, while the Sun releases what is built in the Mars septile Saturn. Simply put, expect some major melt-downs for those who are not flexible, noble, steady, detached, or dispassionate about the changes they're confronted with.

I discussed the Sun square Mars energies in the linked article. Adding Moon and Mercury to the mix, discipline your mind and speech, find the right motive and profitable direction for your initiatives, and let go of quick assumptions, arguments, wishful thinking, and superficial matters that really don't concern you.

Be practical in your assessments, develop the possible to the actual, don't take the bait and battle "straw men," and keep everything related to core issues. Above all, focus on higher ideals, group work, friendships, larger goals and ambitions, all from a dispassionate and altruistic angle.

Since it is a See Saw pattern, stay centered, and try not to get lost in the margins even while exploring the outer limits of the field. If you find yourself seesawing between views or energies, try to find the way to mediate between opposing views by finding the third or fourth points that harmonize the opposites.

This time stabilizes recently developed new powers and a new higher order in our life if we have gone deeper into our spiritual practice or found a way to bring more light(ness) to the process. It's time to focus while breaking through unproductive density and inertias as we break through to new duties and responsibilities of Saturn in Libra.

This is opening new energies in our Libra, Capricorn, and Aquarius sectors and releasing powerful Plutonian influences. This is a time of radical emergences and leaving behind old collective influences through significant life re-alignments that can give us higher, broader perspectives once we give up searching in old ways and places.

For astrologers, a final note regarding the aspects finds Venus, ruler of the Moon, in trine to Jupiter, Chiron, and Neptune. This will harmonize, help us understand, and make progress wherever these fall in the birth chart. Mars, on the other hand, rules the Sun and Mercury, and is in a powerful square. Thus the ruler of the Moon builds in Air, while the ruler of the Sun releases into Air. Relationships and communications will be highly active the next few weeks!

As with the last several New Moons and Full Moons, this is the final phase of claiming a form of collective power and an enduring vision. We are still growing toward doing a work that will outlive us, so in the midst of the melt-downs, remember this is necessary as a result of prior actions, and is the initial step in expressing your heart.

This is a time to repair what can be repaired while anticipating future hassles and taking protective maneuvers. This is where we find a new heart strength and determination within a new ideal of purpose. Build your world, care for your "garden" of personality, and see the rewards Nature offers for those who cooperate with Her.

Say goodbye to whatever is hindering your individuation or courage in focusing your energies to express your Higher Self. Through the light of Divine Magnetism, eliminate whatever you need to in order to set the pattern of regeneration, and anchor it in simple, natural, straightforward enjoyable ways.

Get beyond forms, find new rhythms of activity and relationship, focus on what's fair, elegant, refined, and balanced, and allow yourself to be healed into better goals, ambitions, friendships, and group work. And in the midst of the irrationality, keep bringing forth your unique gifts as you shift direction and reorient toward that which stabilizes your Spiritual Self as the director of your personality.

The last New Moon has been educating us about integrity, both ours and others. This Full Moon opens the Adventure of the next step of living our integrity. Those without integrity will hit a wall. Those with integrity will begin an adventure!
