NEW GROUND
NEW MOON SOLAR ECLIPSE at 9 TAURUS, April 28, 11:14pm PDT, April 29, 2:14am EDT, 7:14am GDT Image: Amaryllis Spring in St. John, oil painting by author. Has April been one of the most intense, challenging, exciting and enriching months of the year? I hear a chorus of agreement through the ethers! This solar eclipse gets us down to business to follow up on the momentum of change. Emphasizing pragmatic issues of Taurus, we are asked to question and redefine our definitions of security and what’s sustainable in the long run.

Image: Sailboats at Klein Bay, watercolor by author. The NEW MOON at 11 SAGITTARIUS, December 2, 7:22pm EST, 4:22pm PST, December 3 at 12:22am GMT shifts December into fast-paced Sagittarian gear. A surge of positive motivation courses through our system on the solar wind in waves of consciousness altering streams of energy.

FULL MOON at 26 SCORPIO/TAURUS, 10:16am EST, 7:16am PST, 3:16pm GMT Image: Web Collage for Algol created by Dana Hunt. This Full Moon at 26 Taurus is aligned with ALGOL, one of the most powerful stars in the sky. Algol, “The Demon” Star in the constellation of Perseus, marks the Eye of Medusa, the mythic snaky-haired gorgon whose glance turned one to stone.
