THE FULL MOON, TIME TO RELEASE

LUNAR ECLIPSE
FEBRUARY 20, 2008, 10:31 PM EST
01 DEGREES VIRGO 53 MINUTES

HOW:
 
THE SIGN:

VIRGO
Taking care of endless details and routine jobs. The sign of humble service and patience. Your state of mind in this area of your life has a direct bearing on your health. Certainly, this area of your life is a work in progress. The never-ending maintenance of life, spotting flaws, and correcting mistakes. Everything can be fixed. Don't worry; this sign can easily become a hypochondriac. The house Virgo is on in your chart you need to analyze, perfect, and digest all that has been absorbed through previous experiences in an attempt to find a useful application for acquired skills. The goal is not to become trapped in the detail, but to develop an appreciation for it. The experiences offered here require analysis, assessment, digestion, and the elimination of those things that have proven unfit for future use. The experiences attracted in the Virgo house will make you aware of what needs your attention.

 

THE SABIAN SYMBOL: A LARGE WHITE CROSS UPRAISED
This is a symbol of the conscious stewardship through which man sustains his more enduring values, here emphasized by an uncompromising testimony to his deeper allegiances. His moral courage is a dynamic for all transcendental achievement, and his psychological fearlessness is a corrective for the maladjustments of both individual and society. A sense of spiritual belonging is exalted as the greatest of human satisfactions. The keyword is GLORIFICATION. When positive, the degree is an utterly selfless enlistment in some dramatic service for the ultimate welfare of humankind, and when negative, witless dogmatism and misdirected efforts for causes of great pretension but little real worth.
" Sabian Symbols" Marc Edmund Jones.
 
THE DECANATE: VIRGO
 
THE DWAD: VIRGO
 
RULERS:

MERCURY/MERCURY/MERCURY
Mercury is the ruler of Virgo as well as Gemini. This eclipse is, therefore, very much under the control of Mercury. Mercury is in Aquarius. Saturn in Virgo is retrograde conjunct the Moon. There has been a series of south nodal eclipses in Virgo over the last year and a half. This is the last one, so it carries with it the final message of what you need to get organized, and what you need to let go of. The work, habits, patterns, and issues of your day to day existence require some cleaning up. Saturn in Virgo is demanding that anyway. Saturn will be in Virgo until July 2010, which gives you plenty of time to get the job done. This means that there is no issue, no job, or no problem too big for this energy to work on, digest, and clean up. What about your schedule? What about your diet? What about your coping skills?

The effect of a Lunar Eclipse lasts 6 months. This Lunar Eclipse is trine to Pluto in Capricorn. This will give you all the power you need to get the job done. Mars has been dancing around in an opposition to Pluto since September 21st, 2007. It will finish that opposition around the New Moon, April 5th. You should have a handle on things by then. Pluto hasn't been in Capricorn in 248 years. It just entered on January 25th, and will be in and out until it settles in Capricorn for good around November 26th. This Eclipse seems to be introducing us to the new skills that will be required over the next 16 years, while Pluto is in Capricorn.

I think this Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse will give you a lot of information about what to expect over the next 6 months.
