But WAIT! Before we get ahead of ourselves...there's more! Coming up Sunday, May 20th, 2012 is a rare "Ring of Fire" total ECLIPSE, aligned with the PLEIADES constellation...
“
On May 20, 2012, for the first time in 26,000 years, the Sun and Moon and the constellation responsible for our spiritual evolution and ascension, the mystic Pleiades, will align in a spectacular, full Annular Solar Eclipse, and a rare solar eclipse alignment will happen between the Earth, the Sun and our central Sun, Alcyone in the Pleiades Constellation…”
“The Pleiades was clearly revered by the Mayans, who in the area of Chichen Itza knew that the Sun casts a snake-like shadow on the side of the north stairway of the Kukulcan pyramid during the spring equinox. Some scholars have calculated that about 60 days after this shadow’s appearance, when the sun reaches its zenith over the Pyramid at mid-day (May 20 – May 23), there is another direct alignment with the Pleiades. This Pleiades-sun alignment may have a direct connection with Quetzalcoatl, the feathered serpent that came to bring a greater wisdom to the planet.”
“The ancient Egyptians also singled out the Pleiades as a female goddess, probably most often recognized as Neith, the ‘Divine Mother’, or Hathor, who took on the form of a cow (who carried the seeds of life). Pyramidologists working in Egypt in the last twelve years have found pyramidal texts that suggest the Egyptians revered the Pleiades as a higher divine star system, especially Alcyone, its brightest star.”
“The Pleiades are a well-known sight in the Northern Hemisphere in winter and in the Southern Hemisphere in summer, and have been known since ancient times to cultures all around the world. Early Dakota stories speak of the ancestors as being the Pleiades. The Hopis called the Pleiadians the ‘Chuhukon’, meaning those who cling together. They considered themselves direct descendents of the Pleiadians.”
“Navajos named the Pleiades the ‘Sparkling Suns’, the home of the ‘Black God’. The Iroquois pray to them for happiness. The Cree claim to have come to Earth from the stars in spirit form first and then became flesh and blood. Some Native Americans believed that all tribes in North America came from the Pleiades. That they were actually descendants and had been given a task by the Pleiadians to keep the Earth safe.”
“With the arrival of New Moon in Gemini and Solar Eclipse on May 20th, 2012, we will open a new chapter in our lives as symbolized by the symbolism of a Solar Eclipse. Being objective and observing will help us navigate the variety of aspects happening around the New Moon in Gemini.”
“It’s a time that will leave a lasting impression upon our being and stimulate the mind and possibly bring excitement.”
”The Solar Eclipse will symbolically turbo-charge the energy of the New Moon in Gemini and all of the aspects surrounding it. So don’t give into superstition or get spooked regarding the Solar Eclipse. There is nothing to fear but there may be a lot of opportunities.”
“Get ready to be whisked off your feet. The New Moon/ Solar Eclipse at 0 degrees Gemini – happens at 7:23 pm EDT // 4:23 pm PST. It will be visible from Asia, Eastern Europe, North America, Greenland, Arctic and north Pacific Oceans. Remember that Eclipses come in pairs and the second of this pair is a Lunar Eclipse on June 4th, 2012 but more on this later.”
“The astrological sign of Gemini represents the archetype of the ‘Networker, Student and Social Butterfly’ amongst others. This highly logical and intellectual sign appreciates connecting the dots and sharing information it gathers.”
“This Solar Eclipse and New Moon in Gemini sparks up new beginnings within the mental energy field and within the mind. There may be potential new ideas forming and swirling.”
“A new moon phase within the lunar cycle is a wonderful time to set new intention(s), plant new seeds, create a new opportunity or start a new routine and or habit. You must get your intention and inspired ideas set to go. It is an golden opportunity you don’t want to miss it since it is super-energized by the Solar Eclipse…”
“Consider the following: Venus is already Retrograde in Gemini at the time of the New Moon/Solar Eclipse in Gemini on May 20th. Old or past issues are prominent themes around the topics of love, values, relationships, friendships, networking and exchanging ideas. Past thoughts or ideas or interesting opportunities surface for you to weigh out.”
“For some relationships, the weak spots become glaringly obvious and therefore there may be sadness or realizations occurring now. It is helpful to trim away superficial relationships and keep only those that are quality, meaningful and valuable. The retrograde phase is extremely helpful as it can help you sort resolve past issues and clean up the energy.”
“The New Moon in Gemini makes a ‘Square’ aspect to Neptune in Pisces. Does it sounds soggy or water logged? Yes, it is very possible. An internalized jumbled mess until things are sorted out.”
“This aspect symbolizes, there can be confusion, deception, anxiety and uncertainty surrounding this aspect as thoughts and feelings are being mixed up on the inside of you with a sense of there’s no way out. It’s as if logic and feeling are clashing with each other.”
“We need to understand what is fantasy or illusion and what is real and factual. We have to find a way to transform the limitation into freedom and to bring harmony to thoughts and feelings so there is clarity. Sorrow, tears, anxiety and even a bit of high strung energy is possible now.”
“Healing can take place to help open up the heart energy center. We may see where compassion and empathy is a necessity to heal and move forward into new beginnings. The potential of this aspect is: It is wise to understand things from a Spiritual perspective and then it makes sense on a logically level. Our thoughts may be Spiritualized by this process. Hearts and feelings could expand quickly.”
“Venus in Gemini ‘Trine’ Saturn in Libra retrograde at the 23 degree mark. This represents a very positive energy towards love, relationships and creative projects. On a romantic level, affections may become more solidified and develop strongly now.”
“You’ll want to “talk about” things. A commitment or agreement that began in the past with a ‘What if…’ may become more tangible now. It is possible that past ideas regarding business or creative project advance in small steps now. For others, affections and interests may cool down or become distant.”
“We may be on the receiving end of help from those in position of authority, higher status or someone well established. With Venus retrograde, look for renewals of connections both personal and business.”
“It is possible friendships mature or a new level of responsibility forms within the relationship. Enjoy flirting, dating, friendships and deeply savor the moments spent with each other. Cherish the treasures that are manifesting easily now.”
“Also during the time of the New Moon/Solar Eclipse, is Mercury/Jupiter building to a Conjunction in Taurus. This gives a some what symbolic stability to the otherwise zippy mental energy happening. Though certain thoughts seem magnified now and we may give into our desires.”
“Promise or agree to only what you can deliver. We have solid strength to access and bring out ideals into reality with that which is highly valuable to us. By the way, do your best not to be overly stubborn. Listen to what is being said and then make the decision…”
“Remember, that each astrological aspect has something valuable to teach and offer us so that we move with the higher stream of evolution. It is about becoming more and more conscious, empowered and aware. Who we are, what our higher purpose is and how to express it with the utmost integrity in the physical world.”
