Libra New Moon - dance of the opposites

Libra New Moon
Oct. 3, 2005 at 3:29 a.m. PDT

Libra - delighting in the opposite , communicating with the opposite,
dancing with the opposite -

until something new emerges
that embraces
and simultaneously transcends
that which was before -

seranading the quintessence with Song Spell and Sacred Art
a long tale
(more will be revealed in the next cycle, the Scorpio cycle)

Libra is Air
beauty, equilibrium

blandishing
i mean
balancing the tension of the opposites.

are we able to sustain the tension of the opposties until something new emerges?

Libra is about relationships of all kinds
inner , outer, above, below,

beyond and in the liminal spaces between star lore
and lairds of old.

someone once said when we imagine we begin to fall in love
and love requires a really excellent imagination

clearly relation ships benefit profoundly from
an auspicious affinity with the stream of eternal images.

in the Libra cycle we are asked what is beautiful (libra rules beauty) in our relationships.
what needs refinement.

virgo, last cycle does continue to nourish what we do in the libra dance. the body mind refinement of last cycle is the foundation on which we build this one. The Libra cycle leads to Scorpio and All Hallows Eve.

Libra has a shadow too.
it so wants everything to be beautiful that it can
err a bit in expresing the full ferocity of honesty.
Libra needs to learn that only by sharing truth with each other can
the deeper beauty be discovered, embodied, understood and embraced.

This New Moon is a solar eclipse.
The Lunar Way of seeing is now stronger
than the Solar Way.
another way of expresing that the imagination
and our deepest self will be able to communicate with
us without solar obstruction.
let us listen.
to our dreams, paintings, writings,active imagiantions and our desires
what we hear our selves almost saying
if we knew what it was that
we absolutely know to be true
and are almost ready to embody
and live
a breath (air) at a time
falling more deeply in love with breath too.
blessings on this cycle
ah - did i mention Venus is in Scorpio now.
Venus is opposite Mars
and that
Chiron, the maverick, shape shifter, shaman and wounded healer is going direct .
more to be revealed
journey well
namaste

Wishing you a particularly auspicious Lunar Cycle
