Partial Lunar Eclipse June 2012: Revealing the Truth

Partial Lunar Eclipse

&

Full Moon in Sagittarius

By Maharani Rutan©

June brings the opening curtain to what has been hidden and the search for the truth will be illuminated by the full moon and the partial lunar eclipse. On June 04, 2012 the full moon will illuminate the skies at 7:03 am EST, 4:03 PST, while the partial lunar eclipse will partially hide the moon at 7:12 am EST, 4:12 PST.

The visibility of this will not be seen in the north eastern sides of North America and Canada however, the western coast of America and Canada will have the best view.  For the best visibility pacific areas and eastern Australia will have the most magnificent visibility.

The partial lunar eclipse will fall at 14 to 17 degrees in Sagittarius depending upon the orb. This eclipse is will be concentrated around Sagittarius.  The emphasis of this eclipse will be more on being collective, spiritual, tolerant, and risk taking; at the same time the dislike for internment, boredom, doubt and disapproved. The eclipse will focus upon all mutable signs, especially Sagittarius, including those that have the sun, moon and any signs in Sagittarius.  However, Sagittarians will not be the only ones affected by this eclipse; every mutable sign (Sagittarius, Pisces, Gemini’s and Virgos) or those that have any mutable sign in their charts will be affected.

This is not just a normal eclipse as we know it but it will make a grand cross like it did for Cardinal Signs in 2009.  This time Mercury, Venus, Mars, Chiron and Neptune will wind the mutable signs and even if people don’t have mutable signs in their charts, they will be affected by those who do have mutable signs.  This will be focused around communications, and interpersonal relationships of all kinds.

In short, Venus (Goddess of Love and money) and Mars (God of men or higher authority and drive) will square each other. Additionally, since Sagittarius focuses on legal issues, it could be for the next 6 months that any legal issues may not go as planned.  Depending upon where the placement is for some, it could be a sign of relief but during an eclipse anything is possible.

People with mutable signs  will have difficulties unraveling their self-image from their feelings; failing to recognize that someone or something is not what it appears and it is all a self image or a mirage rather than a responsive commitment.  These people will be obsessed with doing things that inhibit their passionate satisfaction or chasing after their desires while talent and skills are wasted so there is a tug of war between passions and motivations.

This eclipse will also re-stimulate, to some degree, the issues that were raised by the December 2010, and June 15, 2011 eclipses.  Perhaps looking at those days, or rather reconsidering what happened during those months, can help in assessing what is about to take place for the next 6 months.

When a partial lunar eclipse occurs, the earth is passing between the Sun and the Moon, creating a full moon as we experience every month – but in this case, the alignment is perfect – the occultation of the moon complete. The intensity of the full moon is great, yet she is partially covered for a few minutes by the earth’s shadow. The Sun and Moon are occupying opposite Astrological signs, therefore emphasizing the particular polarity inherent in those signs. During the period of occultation, the Moon’s reassuring light is temporary. We may experience a crisis of lack, and the particular sort of lack depends universally upon the astrological sign in which the eclipse occurs, and personally upon the natal astrological house (realm of influence), as well as the major aspects made to natal planets.

This eclipse is particularly relationship oriented – and our connections with others can be severed, challenged, or suddenly welded together as the shock calls one to action. We may deeply consider our feelings and needs within the context of the house, sign and planetary aspects affected. To fully appreciate the potential in the lunar eclipse, we must explore both houses and signs that are brought into play. Where the Moon is we can confront our demons, old habits and fears, and where the Sun is we may find the means to embrace a release from whatever bondage we experience in life through our creative efforts. In any event, there are opportunities for deeper understanding, and finding a balance in our lives.

At times this Full Moon can highlight important technical or scientific advances, or social changes and reforms. Computers and other hi-tech equipment can be subject to malfunction and other disturbances. Be on guard against “the unexpected or unusual” around this time.  Individuals may present with some rather bizarre behavior patterns under this influence as well and sudden estrangements or separations may occur for some around this time.

The Fiery Sagittarius Moon impels us to speak honestly and get straight to the heart of the matter. Trust is strong, small talk is out… big dreams and lofty plans take shape in our minds. Take a little trip… read a book.


The Moon in Sagittarius brings a time of exploration, seeking, and impulsiveness. People may feel more courageous, sociable, and fun loving. It is a good time for discovering benefits and ideas and for broadening the mind. Like the Archer that represents Sagittarius, people may have a predisposition toward pursuing out truth and higher meaning and following intuition, as well as flights of fancy. While the desire for freedom will be strong, people may want to do what they want, when they want, and be impetuous and autonomous. These inclinations can cause edginess and a strong need for independence.

Moon in Sagittarius is very candid with her feelings. She is wise and metaphysical in emotional situations. She treats others with respect, kindheartedness and a sense of humor. She believes in telling it like it is, even if the truth hurts. Sagittarius Moon needs for others to be truthful with her as well. She is deeply wounded by dishonesty. She has a talent for teaching others, and is an avid learner. Every emotional challenge is an opportunity for her to learn, and to help others with the information she has gained.

Allow the heavy burdens of the past months to drop away. You should swim like a light being and an angel of the heavens, in the harmonious seas of bliss and peace. I strongly suggest taking your aspirations that you have made last month and cross them out one by one.  Remember never beg for your aspirations.

During the Lunar Eclipse we must try to look at life in a different aspect.  You might want to re-write the aspirations like this: “I need help in creating what I dream of and power to manifest happiness through this process.  I need the knowledge to love more and the ability to engage in a positive environment.  I need to understand about my goals.”  I also recommend that during this moon cycle that you purchase a purple candle, carve your name on it, and anoint the candle with lavender or peppermint.  Chant, in silence, psalm 40 three times.  Allow yourself to chant these words every night until the next moon cycle and let the glory of the higher power enter your body, mind and soul.

Since, moon in Sagittarius is Honest, Straightforward, Energetic, Optimistic, and Wise all mixed together, we must remain balanced. It is my suggestion that you purchase an orange candle and carve your name through the wick.  Anoint the candle with sandalwood or Lavender oil and chant the psalm 17.  You may also choose to recite a mantra every morning until the next moon cycle. Remember that with all applications of psalms and mantras achieving the desired result is depended upon the quality of intention, and when it comes to finding satisfying relationships, it is of the greatest importance to begin with a clear understanding of what your goal should be.

The mantra for Lunar Eclipse is:

Om Chandrakia Namaha

(Om Chan Dra Kia Nahm ah ha)

 

The mantras can be hard to pronounce for many but it is a powerful source of energy the mantra for Sagittarius moon is:

 “Om Gurave Nahmaha”

(Om Goo rah vey Nahm ah ha)

This mantra begins to awaken and activate the entire chakra. It specifically prepares the chakra to able to handle the inflow of Jupiter energy that give chakra is power.

 

With every moon cycle, remember to cross out the old affirmation even if there is the slightest change and create new ones. The perfect number for aspiration is 10.  This means to list 10 aspirations and recite them every night until the next moon cycle.  Remember, never make the affirmations beginning with “I want”, it must be worded “I need to be guided.”

Many people have asked the question how often they should have a reading done by a physic or a tarot reader.  In my opinion an in-depth reading should be done every moon cycle.  Since, every moon cycle represents a change it not only affects our external forces but our internal forces as well.  Of course, we all have burning questions every now and then and it may be necessary to have a reading done more often, but sometimes we have to let universe take its course.

When dealing with a tragic situation, it is my suggestion that before you have a reading done you must clear away negativity and fear from your emotions so that a reader can give you the clearest reading possible.  Remember also that every psychic bases all their telephone readings on your energy. So remember to ask guidance from the higher power before having a reading so that you can be neutral with your energy.  The clearest answers can be given when energy is at a neutral point.  Never get a reading with your energy is scattered because you may not receive the best reading possible.  98% of all psychics are empathic and clairvoyant so this energy is very important to them as well as you.   Always remember that every reader has their boundaries as to how far in the future they want to read.  This is of their choice; however, reading beyond 6 months is a very hazy situation. Our free will plays an important role in our destiny and we are able to change anything.  This is the main reason why many readers do not go beyond the 3 to 6 month marks.

 

Please remember these are general tendencies.  It is my suggestion that all mutable signs set up an appointment with me and get a 6 month in-depth reading on the self before getting a relationship reading.  In addition, please remember that I am not an astrologer, but rather, a Vedic reader who incorporates tendencies of the sun and the moon which is the ground work for a specialized reading.  I bring to you the outcomes that can be changed.

Furthermore, I would advise you to speak to my recommended astrologers and get a path to remedial changes and incorporate the two; building a future that you would like to have.

My recommended Astrologer, Leslie Hale, will be happy to help you find your way through western Astrology and paired with Vedic Readings, change the future you want to see.

If you are an existing client you may make an appointment with me here and details will be in your keen box for those that are new.  Welcome and embrace the blogs and allow the changes to happen quietly and peacefully.

May the changes be everything magnificent and may the moon bless you with wonderful transformations.

Looking forward to speaking with you and blessed be.

Namaste

Revolutionary Change: Solar Eclipse May 20 2012

Annular Solar Eclipse 

New Moon in Gemini

May 20, 2012

By Maharani Rutan ©

Abstract by Leslie Hale & Lee Stillwaters

On May 20, 2012, a beautiful ring will appear in our skies with the Annular Solar Eclipse in Gemini. The new moon will create a beginning and solar eclipse will heighten the effect.  This wonderful symphony will occur at approximately 07:47am EST and 3:47 am PST.   The eclipse will occur in 0 degrees Gemini.  It will be an amazing reset button for many.

The stunning part of the Annular Solar Eclipse happens when both planets the sun and the moon are in lined at the exact position. The line of the planets will cause a ring due to the placement and the size of the moon which will appear as a fire in the sky.  Even though the moon will enter our skies while the sun raises, those in the United States will not see it until the early afternoon in the United States.  This type of eclipse has not happened for 18 years in the United States and another like this will not occur until October 14, 2013.  The eclipse will begin its journey in Southeast China and continues its journey from California to Northern western Texas at 8:39 pm.

This is the third series of eclipses that have affected mutable signs since December 2010 read about it here.  Those that will have direct impact from this eclipse will be those that have planets at 25 to 30 degrees in Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius and those that have early planets in mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces).

The May 20th Solar Eclipse in Gemini takes place on the same day as the Sun enters Gemini.  The timing of the Solar Eclipse takes place in the very 1st degree of the mutable sign of Gemini, so those born on or near May 20th, September 20th, November 20th, and February 20th are likely to experience the effects of the eclipse more significantly.  Solar Eclipses represent new beginnings, so those born with planets or house cusps in the first 5 degrees of Gemini, Virgo, Pisces, or Sagittarius are more likely to begin new projects, opportunities, and pursuits in their lives. “ Lee Stillwaters

“Those most affected by this eclipse will be Gemini, Sagittarius, Virgo and Pisces, or others who have a personal planet in their natal chart the eclipse is hitting.” Leslie Hale 

The effects of this eclipse can be felt as early as 5 days before (May 15, 2011). The discomfort of the energy of the eclipse will be felt by everyone; however, the intensity of the eclipse depends upon the house that the eclipse falls in your astrological chart.  Every eclipse has a significant bearing on revolution in our lives for at least 6 months; therefore, early born Gemini’s as well as those that have primary planets in Gemini may feel this effect more so than ever as well as late mutable signs.

This eclipse does not single out Gemini’s or just mutable signs, it will affect many especially those that are in relationships that are poisonous in nature.  Every eclipse is relationship oriented whether it is romantic, family, business or associates it has no bearing.  I would suggest a consult Leslie Hale to see how this eclipse will affect your interpersonal relationships in general and set up a 6 month in-depth reading with me.

 

There are a total of three 6 months in-depth reading since each eclipse is unique in its own prospective.  I especially emphasize mutable signs (Pisces, Gemini, Virgo and Sagittarius’s) as well as Fixed Signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Pisces).  However, celestial transformation will not narrow to having a sun sign in the signs mentioned above, if you chart has the sun, the moon, or any houses in the above mentioned sign there will be definite transformation.  What is yet to be determined is the journey which one will be on this is why I suggest a paired reading with an Astrologer.

“The first eclipse of the summer occurs on May 20, at 0 degrees of Gemini. It is a solar eclipse, and Gemini is the natural ruler of the third house of communications and rules speech, travel, and younger people, making these areas our focus. The eclipse squares Neptune, creating a potential for deceptive communication and situations, or lack of clarity in events, as well as water related weather events.” Leslie Hale.

To be able to understand how we are affected by the planets, a glimpse of Astrology 101 may be necessary. For example this eclipse will affect my 12th house.  The 12th house in astrology focuses on looking at the past to build a foundation for the future. When a person has Gemini in the 12th house this often represents solitude. When true ideas arrive when we are alone and the difficulty begins when we are misunderstood. The 12th house also represents family and difficulties with family members or association of the family.  Often related to siblings or relatives, even debt of karma owed to family members.  Those that have Gemini in the 12th house operate on intuitive impulses rather than thinking things through.  They are highly psychic and flow with creativity where the public and public speaking becomes a president in their lives. The 12th house is also where Neptune tends to reside which is the most misunderstood house this means that most people with Gemini in their 12th house naturally feel alone and vulnerable. To be able to understand the affects of this eclipse I would suggest you make an private appointment with my recommended astrologers here. Or go to my page where you can find a list of Astrologers for you to choose from.

“Eclipses often have a long life and the energy of an eclipse can last for months, sometimes years to come.  Eclipses are like guideposts and by looking at where the eclipses fall in your chart astrologers can get an idea of what the focus in your life will be over the year to come.Leslie Hale

 In ancient times eclipses were considered as omens and difficulties during the time of the eclipse and often in the current time it is as equally thought of.  Eclipses usually trigger major devastation such as negative weather patterns which could be such things as floods, earthquakes, and snow storms.  Often it is seen as irritable time for even humans the energy could create unrest politically, financially and even emotionally. The solar eclipse is an eye opener or a nudge as I had mentioned to realize that world we once knew is changing, either we change with it fight it.

“Mercury conjuncts Jupiter, an overall positive transit but things may be blown out of proportion. Astrologer Celeste Teal calls this eclipse, “Property Agreements,” and writes, “For the USA, a treaty may be involved. Visiting ambassadors. There are troubling uncertainties, and unsettling times. An underestimation of efforts risks failure. Mars overhead shows quarrels and conflicts, warlike themes and/or military involvement.  Mercury shows complicated situations and communication obstacles over high cost matters: prosperous potential. Concerns: finance and material. Crime rate changes, railway or mechanical accidents.  Risky speculation.”Leslie Hale.

The eclipse in early Gemini is definitely geared towards development through confidence and strives; there is a need to ask our selves what have we done to get where we need to go? And what more is needed to get where we want to go? It is time to gather material, form a plan, and make choices.  Because the evidence to form plans in our lives are so scattered the tendency to be frustrated could make it difficult to make choices.  This is very similar to the eclipse felt also in December 2010.  Read about it here.

The eclipses do not have to all be destructive; eclipses can bring new social position, and a need to take inventory to make enhancements to stability.  It is a time for maturity, inhale information and acquire knowledge of the spiritual and knowledgeable information and people.  And exhale the importance of sustainability and stability.  If in a career there was a great deal of effort and hard work than definitely the heavens will promote you, however, if it was revolving around just getting by then the angle of the eclipse will show you the direction your lacking.

Solar energy is peripheral, shielding, apologetic, active – and echoed and expressed from within our life force. This eclipse is particularly objective and purpose oriented – and our ideals and resolve can be enhanced and intensified. We begin to deeply consider our contributions in the world, and the full expression of our humanity.

This 6-month period is a time to focus on career status, social status and endeavors. This particular Eclipse chart places a huge planetary emphasis in one area of the Zodiac Gemini; however, Virgo, Pisces and Sagittarius are highly emphasized guarding against out-of-control patriotism, misunderstandings and over-sensitivity about boundaries. Tiny details can over-run long-term goals.

Along with the solar eclipse the heightened new moon will bring a new beginning to set out a passage of new projects and endeavors. The energy is just in the right place to bring growth, development and creating a physical world which one calls their own.  The restless will for the impulse to take action and begin something new, be it a small change in the way you approach your daily routine, or a whole new path on your journey through life. The energy is right for making spur-of-the-moment moves and following your instincts. This is the time to act from your heart and trust.  Know that the Cosmos will support you as long as your intentions are true.

What do you want to create in your life? What vision do you wish to manifest? The new begins a new cycle.  It is the seed of the beginning lunar cycle.  The chart of the New Moon is the key to influences in the coming lunar month.  The New Moon is an asking (invocative) time, and a time to formulate what our needs are according to the opportunities available (through Gemini this month).

The moon in Gemini is the sign of the Twins, on one side is the physical aspect of your life and on the other is you’re emotional.  Study, Trim, Acquire, Gather, and most of all communicate.  Open your self up for the most powerful conversations; get together with groups, brainstorm.  After all the information is collected make a new beginning, but be sure to bounce ideas back and forth with people.

 

Gemini’s are quite impulsive, bright, imaginative, resourceful, inventive, visionary and deadly in their creative power.   Gemini’s are known for the astuteness and it’s the most analytical signs but they are strangely corky and impersonal at times. Sometimes the energy is such a nuisance its best to ignore it at times. Their famous question is “but why?” when sometimes there are no answers.

The energy between the moon and eclipse may cause need to continually express feelings. Arriving to a quick logical solution for any emotional problem – and will jump right in to provide a helpful opinion. Emotional feelings are not consistent and often switch between on again and off again. This could make people appear fickle or two-sided, but is it you or them.  Be open-minded. The flip side of this energy may be that the urges of being super friendly in communication and a need to stay in touch with your mother or a female guardian becomes a must.

No matter how it is analyzed. The new moon focuses upon action.  Take this time and relax because we are in for a bumpy ride.  There will be 2 eclipses this summer.  Both in mutable signs. Therefore, this is just a beginning of a bumpy ride. But it does not have to be.

 

The Gemini moon stimulates curiosity. Interesting ideas appear constantly, like doors opening up to reveal other doors. Now is the time to make connections, perhaps via e-mail or telephone. Explore your garden, learn from it, but don’t plant.

The Moon in Gemini also brings time of communication and flexibility. People may feel very loquacious and inquisitive. This is a time to pursue academic interests and to take care of communications both verbal and written. Like the Twins that symbolize Gemini, people may be able to see both sides of a problem, but they may also be fickle and restless, unable to make up their minds. Caution needs to be taken to avoid saying something in haste that will be regretted later.

The eclipse can be a very difficult time even when things are perfect.  Appreciate the gifts that have been bestowed upon you by the cosmos.  Namaste the name of the sun embrace the difficulties and ask for forgiveness when frustrations have over come humility.

 

The Sanskrit mantras can be difficult to pronounce but it is a powerful source of energy on levels of sounds through us and the creator.  For the Solar Eclipse it is suggested that mantra of Surya be chanted every morning and every night for the entire transit (6 months).

Om Surya Namaha

 

(OmSurya Namaha)

Also I suggest to purchase a Yellow candle carve your name on it and anoint it with sandalwood or frankincense oil and chant the following chant: “”I ask to find the inner light of my creativity” I wish for the universe to help me achieve the recognition that I desire.” “I pray that I may find the strength to take chances with my creativity”.

Since, moon in Gemini- gracious, sharp, conscious, coherent, and changeable. The Airy Gemini Moon gives our heart wings of happiness… sociable chats, sociable visits, neighborhood interest and a bit of change-your-fickleness.

You may also choose to recite a mantra every morning until the next moon cycle. Remember that with all applications of psalms and mantras achieving the desired result is depended upon the quality of intention, and when it comes to finding a satisfying relationships and success, it is of the greatest importance to begin with a clear understanding of what your goal should be. The mantras can be hard to pronounce for many but it is a powerful source of energy the mantra for Gemini moon is:

OmVeshnu Namaha

(OM Vesh nu Na Ma Ha)

Remember the 12 aspirations.  Don’t forget to cross the ones you have already accomplished and make new ones. Don’t forget to manifest matters concerning materialistic things at this time.  And most of all don’t forget to light a white candle that day carve your name on the candle anoint the candle with Frankincense oil and chant Psalm 65 three times.  If you should have any other questions regarding the new moon please feel free to contact me or the Solar Eclipse, please feel to contact me.     

This solar eclipse I will be doing 6 months in-depth reading to prepare us for the finale at the beginning of July when things are set in stone until this fall.

Being a Vedic reader does not make me an Astrologer.  Vedic reading is focused geared towards transformational changes which embarked by actions and reactions.  One ounce of prevention brings solace understanding of the future.

For the best advice I would suggest you make an appointment with Leslie Hale and get a read on the effects of the two eclipses.  After you have had a complete reading on the transitions of the eclipse you may set up an appointment with me to have an in-depth reading done (6 months).  I especially recommend for Gemini’s and Sagittarius to have two readings done, both in May and June especially if you have Gemini in your chart and if you are mutable sign.

I will be accepting appointments for in-depth readings at a reduced price as early as 22 of May to be scheduled for June 03 on wards.

 

Please contact me prior to making an appointment so that I can be sure the slot for your appointment is available.

Wishing you the best of the transitions through eclipses..

Namaste
