Amethyst Point

Moon Conjunction with Jupiter, Chiron and Neptune & Full Moon Floats into Pisces & Mercury Squaring Mars 9/3/2009

In astrology we use the position of the planets to find our own personal place with the higher forces inside the parameters of a creative, unfolding, intelligent universe. We use the planets as mirrors symbolizing the potentiality of time quality.
In astrology we differentiate between time quantities versus time quality.

The Flow of Time
Our normal experience of time passing is based on a mental perception. We do perceive the unfolding of time and the changes all around us in nature throughout the year. Our ancestors already watched the constellation of the stars in the skies changing along with the seasons.
There is a cause and an effect on the horizontal level of time.

But time is tricky! In truth there is really only the eternal present moment; the past is a memory and the future a projection.

Time Quality in Astrology
In astrology we work with the quality of time in the moment of a beginning of something.
This beginning can be the new life of a baby, the signing of a contract or a marriage. We treat this beginning as the seed moment of what has begun to unfold. Like the seed of a plant already contains all the information needed for the plant to grow into the full plant.

When we cast a chart for a baby, we know what potential is has for this life.
The quality or seed of this beginning is determining the unfolding of those possibilities in the quantity of time passing. Imagine a book which contains already the whole story, but we need time quantity available to us to read it and enjoy the whole story.

Astrology works vertically. It uses the planets as a symbolic map to raise our consciousness to greater wisdom and understanding and helps to align us with the choreography of the universal laws and forces we are part of as well as the planets.

Mercury in Libra Squaring Mars in Cancer
The square is an aspect with friction and challenge between the two planets connected. Mercury in Libra likes to take both sides into consideration, weighs the arguments, keeps an open mind and asks questions. Mars in Cancer tends to defend the home turf for any costs. Both planets connected with a square might not find it so easy to settle into a meaningful conversation without annoyance or escalation into a serious argument. Just be aware of it!

Lunar Astrology
Moon is the archetypal mother, the inner woman or outer woman, nourishing us in her unique way of being. She is our emotional filter towards the world and can give us hints to how interconnected we all are.
The Moon in astrology reflects consciousness evolving through our inner digestive process of our feelings and guides us intuitively through our day. Because emotions are often unclear and hidden from the light of consciousness and it might take a while to float up to conscious recognition and acknowledgement. By following the Moon position we will gain more insight into our own inner workings.

Moon Conjunction with Jupiter, Chiron and Neptune
The Moon today is still in Aquarius, almost full and in conjunction with Jupiter, Chiron and Neptune throughout the day. It serves as a reminder for us to find our place in the changes in our world at hand. The Jupiter gives us access to deeper meaning and better values to live our life from. Chiron supports our healing process wherever it is needed. Neptune gives us dreams and visions to strive for. This is an uplifting and stimulating combo you will enjoy!

I have written another article about the bigger picture of the threesome of Jupiter, Chiron and Neptune in Aquarius and how that is connected with the beginning of the Aquarian Age.
So more planets are in a sign so stronger the impact of it is. The conjunction and positioning of these three planets Chiron, Neptune and Jupiter in Aquarius will be with us all year. Have a look at my article about them and the implications.

When I was at the ISAR astrology conference in Chicago, I got a renewed and deepened sense of awe about how the outer planet conjunctions, squares and oppositions are shaping and reflecting the changes in society and giving birth to a new generation carrying the torch with new insights and energies into the future.

Full Moon in Pisces
We will have a Full Moon in Pisces tomorrow. The Full Moon is on her highest point of radiating her energy. The nights are full of light, the cats are roaming and having fun and we might have trouble with sleeping. Depending on the position of the Full Moon in your chart and how it ties in with your Moon and other planets you might feel a stronger or less strong impact.

Dream Life
The Moon in Pisces will bring activity into your dreams at night and your visions at day. Recording your dreams in a journal in the morning can give you tremendous insight into your inner world and many books and seminars have been given with good information about it.
I like to think as every person or situation I encounter in my dreams as a part of myself.
For example if I run away from something in my dream at night I inquire deeper into parts or areas in my life I might turn away from. Working with dreams in my morning pages in my journal has given me tremendous value over the years.

Once in a while it is also very interesting to go back in time to older dreams and maybe now you will be able to put a different perspective towards their message. We have such an inner abundance of feelings, wisdom and insights waiting for us inside. Dreams are one way to reach into that inner well.

Visions
Pisces is ruled by Neptune and is the last sign in the evolutionary cycle of the zodiac. Pisces is a sign of completion of one cycle of learning. Therefore this is a place of connection with a deeper level of our being, our divine origin and our oneness with others.

Pisces is the dreamer, spiritual teacher and saint. Pisces points us towards higher levels of consciousness and wants us to be a messenger for the divine nature. Pisces introduces meditation as a tool to align with higher levels of consciousness and opens the channel wider for inspiration, healing and creativity. Pisces gemstone is the Amethyst.

Suggestion to Connect with your Dreams
I like to invite you to take advantage of the time quality of the moment! Get comfortable and sit with your cup of tea or coffee and take some time for yourself with your journal. Pick one area in your life to look at more closely. How does it look like? Are you happy and satisfied with your life in that area? What would you imagine it to look like if you had three wishes from the fairy? Get wild in your imagination and it will point you into the right direction! Today I got this quote from Abraham / Hicks which might help you with this.

Making Peace with My Today Will Improve My Future. It may sound odd, but the fastest way to get to a new-and-improved situation is to make peace with your current situation. By making lists of the most positive aspects you can find about your current situation, you then release your resistance to the improvements that are waiting for you. But if you rail against the injustices of your current situation, you hold yourself in Vibrational alignment with what you do not want, and you cannot then move in the direction of improvement. It defies Law. In every particle of the Universe, there is that which is wanted – and the lack of it.

I also like to give you a gemstone to consider for your process. Remember you can meditate with gemstones by lying down and placing a stone on top of you, on your third eye or any area of your body that needs extra energy balancing. I love gemstone meditations it appeals to my Taurus Sun who like to get comfortable.

Amethyst is Merlin, the Great Magician and Spiritual Teacher [1]
“In olden times Amethyst was known as an amulet against black magic and homesickness, and as a bringer of good fortune. I see Amethyst as Merlin, the old sorcerer who looks harmless enough but in fact wields great power. In the myth he was the spiritual teacher and magician of King Arthur.

Amethyst can become our individual teacher as well. This gem’s greatest gift is its ability to open us up to higher realms of reality, higher states of consciousness. It enhances meditation, connects us with our higher self and the supreme reality.
When there is a strong influence of Neptune in our chart, there is an ever present yearning for a higher realm of consciousness, a longing for God, a search for something more than our daily reality. People who fall under this astrological configuration are often tempted to take a shortcut to that plane by using chemical substances to escape reality. But their efforts fail in the long run because they are disappointed by the false world of chemical highs.

By uplifting our consciousness, Amethyst becomes the messenger who reminds us of our eternal connection with God. It is the bringer of bliss and understanding, of expansion to our being. It helps to clear the mind and to transform our limiting beliefs about who we are. It is our guardian and ally who accompanies us on our visionary quest to find greater truth and meaning in life.”

If you like my astrological musings I invite you to find more on my Astrological Signs Weather Report & Healing Gems Blog for a regular update on the universal flow in the heavens. As you can tell I am also very passionate about the abilities of the healing gemstones to help to align and balance our flow. I have even written a book about it and the connection with astrology: Jewelry and Gems for Self-Discovery. If you know where your challenges are, you can then take steps to support or balance yourself with gemstones, if that is something that appeals to you.

I hope you enjoyed my article, aloha and many blessings, Shakti.
