I See A Blood Moon Rising



Darkness, darkness, be my pillow..... Time again for disrupted communications, electronic failures, travel mishaps, and a general severance from life running smoothly. Mercury is in retrograde in Libra until Oct. 24th and this week we have a full moon lunar eclipse in fiery Aries on October 8th, 3:50am PDT. It sounds almost like a perfect storm, but actually this may be an opportune time to throw down the armor and start reconstruction. That is, if one can balance, juggle, and do cartwheels at the same time.

This reconstruction will start with some fireworks. Being combustible, Aries likes forcing issues and moving them forward, so we will need to swallow our pride and learn to adjust for the sake of our relationships. This isn't a humiliating carpet cleaning or bad thing, it is just an airing of entrenched gripes and obstinate attitudes which need to be exorcised for the good of the whole. Regurgitating emotion is never pleasant but one does feel better after hurling.

Like last April's eclipses, this lunation has the same power to make life changing events happen. This full moon forms an alignment with the dreaded Uranus-Pluto squares that have been plaguing us since 2012. It will impact stale relationships, off-kilter power structures, and anything we don't consider fair. With Mercury being in retrograde, take anything said with a grain of salt because back peddling and feeble attempts at superficial placating will remain in high gear as well.

"Full lunar eclipses are often called "blood moons" because of the reddish tint they adopt as sunsets and sunrises seen from Earth reflect onto the surface of the moon.

Because this eclipse will happen two days after a lunar perigee, which is the point when the moon is nearest to Earth, NASA says the moon will appear 5.3 percent larger than the previous "blood moon."
