Hang onto your Hats, Folks – Funky Full Moon Eclipse Tuesday/Wednesday

eclipse The full Moon eclipse that will peak at 7 a.m. EDT on Wednesday morning is going to pack quite the punch. That time alone is significant. Depending on the skies where you are, it could be possible to see this total eclipse of the moon and the “rising” Sun at the same time. Known as a “selenelion,” it is something that actually cannot happen. An eclipse occurs when the Sun and Moon are 180 degrees away from each other – the moon is “full” because it is so far away from the powerful Sun energy. Technically we can’t see them both because of this angle but because space-time is a trickster to say the least and with the help of refraction, we can actually see the Sun “rise” and the Moon “set” a few minutes before they do. Pretty neat, huh? Of course, this would be a wild full eclipse as the Moon is in that most determined sign, Aries, while conjunct rebellious Uranus which is still squared with Pluto. All of this is trining expansive, over the top – knows no bounds Jupiter. Didn’t I tell you to hang onto your hats? As if the Pluto/Uranus square has not caused enough turmoil in the world, this Aries Moon eclipse is brining on emotional outbursts and wild unpredictability. Have I mentioned that Mercury has gone into a three week retrograde? Sorry, I did not know any good way to sneak that in. Back up your computers, take ten, no twenty, good deep breaths and just pray that some lunatic or a flock of them does not get some full Moon madness. Remember, the time of the consequences of this eclipse could come a bit later down the road. When I was writing about the terrible effects of the April grand cross I mentioned that it could brew evil that will come back to haunt us later. What did we get later, ISIS and Ebola? This Uranus/Pluto square is the remnant of the Grand Cross. All and all, it is a tough astrological year.
