Moon Magic or Mayhem


March 12 (which is my Solar Return by the way) is an interesting day and afford us all the opportunity for some emotional pressure relief. The Moon teams up with Pluto on March 12, a profound event that happens once every month.

The Moon represents our emotions, our habits, our homes, our families, our Mothers, our needs, our childhood patterns, our past lives if you follow that school of thought.

Pluto represents the cosmic function of obliteration - destroying things around us to show us we're survivors, death - killing things off to show we don't need them, enforced removal and loss - to remind us we're not what we own, who we date or even how we feel, rebirth - to help us move though tough times and come out fresh and new and more ourselves, passion - to show us what we truly desire above and beyond all else.

Put the two together and it's a good time for:

Therapy - as old emotions hit the fan and old buttons are pressed. Why? How? What's the point of it all and what's the root cause? Can you 'get over it' and kill of a childhood issue you're still experiencing. Is the past trapping you?

Emotional Intensity - channeling your feelings into amazing sex or work. Using emotions as a source of renewal and power inside, like a magician, transforming things you touch with the sheer force of your feelings.

Endings - letting go of old chapters so they can be burned up and reborn from their own ashes. Situations resolve often when we stop resisting and start assisting the process of Change.

Sniffing out the Hidden - finding things lost, fragments of ourselves, pieces missing or forgotten about. Great time to enjoy some intrigue, mystery, magic, detective work. Will you be suspicious and skeptical, or will you use your intuition to help heal an old wound or else assist in finding new meaning to old situations.

Past Life Recall - whether you call it childhood, your genetic ancestry or an actual time you lived in Egypt, the past can be transformed before our very eyes by interacting with past events differently in the present. Can you change yesterday? Actually yes you can - by changing the feeling of what happened right here in the present.

Explosive Emotions - a pressure relief ending in fireworks, fury, murder, revenge, excitement, intensity or just a deeply satisfying time. All depends on WHAT YOU DO WITH HOW YOU FEEL?

So today, emotions are energy-in-motion - we may not be in control, as much as Pluto likes to be, we're at the mercy of our hearts, but this is the human drama and on EART-H it's all about the H-EART.

Lose yourself in how you feel, just come up for air
and realize that any emotion, if held onto long
enough to define us, is an addiction.

Moon/Pluto days are about relinquishing reliance on anything but the honoring of how we feel in a moment and, perhaps, choosing a better emotion and one we're rather feel with intensity than the icky ones we may be feeling.

All feelings are valid - but some lead to that 'party feeling' and others lead to physical degeneration. It's, as always, up to us to choose.

Explode in all good ways!
