Familiarity is important to Lunar Taureans. These people are
earthy and strong-willed. They feel with their senses and
they are pretty much rooted in their ways. They revel in
material comforts--in fact, building a solid and comfortable
home and foundation helps to keep them feeling safe and content.
It isn't wise to try to
push Lunar Taureans into doing anything, but once they have
made a commitment, they're persevering.
There's a steadiness to
this position of the Moon that is comforting to those close
to them. But the conservative streak in these natives can be
maddening to more progressive personalities. They tend
to go out of their way to avoid "messy" or unpredictable
situations, crises, and emotional displays. Instead, they
focus on creating a reliable and secure life around them. In
relationships, Lunar Taureans may not easily recognize their
partner's need for change, growth, or emotional stimulation.
Moon in Taurus natives are
generally very romantic. Their affections are strong, deep,
and unwavering. They are sentimental and warm. Since Taurus
is a practical earth sign, the placement of the Moon in this
sign suggests an ability to protect themselves and their own
interests. They will rarely make a move without first
determining that it is safe and that there's something in it
for them.
Nothing quite happens soon enough with this position of the Moon. There is an inherent impatience with getting what they want. Life is a series of emergencies for Lunar Ari ens. They live in the moment and have a hard time waiting for things to happen. Whims of the moment take absolute precedence in their lives.
This is a fiery position of the moon. Even if the Sun or rising sign is more low-key, Moon in Aries people possess inner passion and fire. Emotional issues take precedence there is simply no pussy-footing around when it comes to dealing with the feelings. And, dealing with new sentiments and needs stirs up a huge desire for activity. Moon in Aries has a need for acting out their needs, with no time to waste. It is hard for them to see the long-term, or to wait for things to happen. Instant gratification rules!
Oddly enough, this is a very defensive position of the Moon. These natives take things very personally, and they deal with problems by facing them right away so that they can then get on with other things. Their flare-ups generally end almost as quickly as they started.
The symbol of Pisces is two fish bound together in the innermost depths of the sea. Pisces struggles with the false-self and the restrictions of its environment until the soul realizes its true self in the cosmic seas of pure Spirit, the great ocean of divine love and mercy.
Pisces, the twelfth and last sign of the zodiac, is the dissolution and release of the passing cycle, purifying the essence from the waste in preparation for the birth of a new cycle. The end of winter is a time for peaceful quiet and acceptance of the universe.
As the mutable water sign, Pisces has changing and adaptable emotions. Flowing water takes the form of its situation. The dual nature expresses deep sympathy, kindness, and understanding, but due to open receptivity and sensitivity may be pulled into negative feelings of sorrow and melancholy when exposed to discord or emotional suffering.
The traditional rulership of Jupiter lifts the Pisces with the inner joy and enthusiasm that results from the faith and benevolence of this vibration. Neptune is significant for Pisces and represents spiritual love, refined feelings ofbeauty and harmony, imagination, the invisible, and the ego-less state.
The self-expression of Pisces is I BELIEVE, combining the religion and philosophy of Jupiter and the mysticism and fantasy of Neptune. Jesus the Christ and bringer of the Light and spiritual teachings of the Piscean Age showed the way of salvation through faith and the forgiveness of sins.
Aquarius is symbolized by the water-bearer whose urn pours forth spirit flowing to the east and west. Traditionally it is the sign of the common man, but in the Bible it represents one of the four cherubim, the man or angel. The bull, lion, and eagle symbolize the other fixed signs of the zodiac.
The glyph of Aquarius is the waves, and now in the Aquarian Age, humans are realizing not only that there are waves in the air, such as radio, television, and X-ray, but that everything is vibrating and that matter is really energy and may be perceived in consciousness as sound or light.
Many people are tuning into the subtler rates of vibration of emotions and mind, developing clairvoyant and clairaudient abilities which are seeing and hearing clearly, rather than through the senses.
This fixed air sign of the middle of winter is a very intellectual vibration. The mind is very strong and can hold ideas, and the awareness can understand the spiritual. The mental concentration tends to be theoretical and idealistic and focused on the universal.
The symbol of Capricorn is the Goat, or Sea-Goat, which is a mountain goat with a dolphin tail. There is the domestic goat who can survive in almost any conditions, the ambitious goat who climbs high on the mountain, the old goat, the scape-goat, and even the god who changed his form into a goat to escape his enemy, using a fish tail to swim away.
The darkest day of the year and the return of more light begins winter just before Christmas. The sun is in Capricorn as the new calendar year begins when people are making plans and resolutions and facing the practical realities of another cycle. The coldest season of the year is a time for deep contemplation.
Capricorn is the cardinal earth sign developing initiative and action toward practical, utilitarian goals. The vision and principles of the first universal sign, Sagittarius, are put into application in concrete form in Capricorn.
Saturn, the beautiful planet of the rings, which is the most distant planet to be seen by the naked eye and thus of traditional astrology, influences Capricorn, Saturn is Kronos, the father of Zeus, and is symbolic of time, limit, control, order, responsibility, authority, tradition, father, seriousness, structure, such as the ego or skeleton, and negatively fear.
The self-expression of Capricorn is I USE. They are pragmatic and can plan and carry it through. They must be careful about being calculating and ruthless. However, their coolness and gravity in realizing the weight of a situation enables them to be impartial, just, and accurate in their decisions.
