Full
Moon in Sagittarius: Aiming Toward Galactic Center
Moon
opposite Sun- 6-17-19 @ 3:32am CDT
Many
cultures around the world have a similar cosmovision of the black
hole at the center of our galaxy, even thousands of years before it
was scientifically proven that it exists. To try to sum up many
sacred stories into one idea (for brevity), there exists the opening
of a portal at Galactic Center where souls go when the physical body
dies. Through this portal, they are reborn again into the Land of the Ancestors (much like through a wormhole, out a white hole, and into another dimension). It is also said that light information, often described in
deified form, emanates from this place to communicate with
us...teaching us in individual transmissions our own pieces of the
vast cosmic wisdom.
My
understanding of this cosmic wisdom is that the more we share our own
pieces of it with others, the more we integrate and connect our
Collective Consciousness to the greater story of the Universe.
Having Neptune (Retrograde, in my case) at Galactic Center when I was
born is a spiritual inclination that is specific to my generation, an
unseen and extrasensory inclination to transmit Cosmic Wisdom through
Universal Love.
Others
have different cosmic associations with Galactic Center, such as
Uranus in the last degrees of Sagittarius for those born several
years after me...which connects them to GC through awakenings of the
Higher Mind. Many people alive today have connections to this Cosmic
Passageway in different expressions, all of them part of the
transmission of Universal Knowledge. We don’t all express it
astrologically, of course, but our many ways are like the colors that
come through a prism when light enters it. Each is an expression of
our Spiritual Source through the Prism of our Matter, transformed
through the colors of our Soul’s Expression.
This
weekend leading into this Strong Sun Moon in Full, my family and I
experienced the death and transformation of a beloved family member,
my familiar, Ani. We were spiritually tasked with releasing our
attachments to the material expression of this beautiful soul, and
sending her off with celebratory support even through our sadness.
Such is the wisdom of life and death...that they are ever-supportive
of each other and engage symbiotically and simultaneously. However,
this loss was also on Friday, when Mars at the North Lunar Node was
opposite Saturn at the South Lunar Node...all while the transiting
nodes are conjunct my own during my Nodal Return. My point in
bringing this personal expression to light is to show that it is the
intricate timing of multiple factors that produces such a specific
expression of this energy as the loss of a loved one. This has been
a very soulfully impactful time for me, all aligned with my own
cycles...my own path...bringing me to a turning point. I hope for
you, what is blossoming from the seeds of this lunar cycle is seen in
the light of its most beautiful expression as well.
The
collective symbolism of this Full Moon illuminating Galactic Center
speaks to the acceptance that death (or any commitment to
transformation) is as beautiful as it is necessary. Such acceptance
encourages us to embody the earthly role our Soul urges us to take in
this life and move onward...trusting that we are in right alignment
by following the direction of the Soul. We are always connected, no
matter the physical form...so onward never means ‘without’. But
it does mean progressing with new expression.

“Frost
covered trees against winter skies”
In
this light, we are stripped down to essentials. The more lively
expressions of Gemini reach the stillness of frost. Here, the
information we carry goes through a crystallization process to
clarify the essential truth we are experiencing. The call is to
experience the beauty of what is transforming within, even while
feeling the harshness of external reality. As we become conscious of
the beauty in what is unfolding at this Full Moon time, we allow our
essential Self to more fully shine.

in Sagittarius 26
“A
flag bearer in a battle”
The
message of this Moon, infused with both Jupiter’s social
amplification and Galactic Center’s universal connection to
otherworldly dimensions, is to follow what your Soul is passionate
about. This Moon is full of enthusiasm and visionary capacity. The
flag bearer carries a collective symbol as well as embodying the
symbol, with total faith in the ideal that spurs them onward. Like
the frost-covered trees of the opposite symbol, the flag bearer is
vulnerable to the elements of battle...without weapons and bare of
all but an essential message. And, like the trees as they meet the
realities of winter, the flag bearer is dauntless...transcending the
fears of mortality and simply embodying the purpose within our
action.
This
Full Moon phase is spurred by spiritual activation from Neptune
slowing to station in Pisces (an hour before Solstice on the 21st)
and squaring Jupiter Rx, Moon, and Sun now. Neptune is also in
flowing aspects to the nodes, Mercury, Mars, Saturn Rx, and Pluto Rx.
This Neptune energy is quite powerful, and has been very influential
over this whole lunar cycle. With squares pooling the active energy
into Neptunian expression and trines and sextiles creating some
harmony and opportunity, this Full Moon illuminates the question of
what we truly believe in and how it can contribute to and integrate
with the whole of our existence on our beautiful planet Earth.
