The Black Moon of August 30, 2008
Nearly everyone has heard the phrase ‘Once In A Blue Moon’, referring to the rare and serendipitous occurrence of two Full Moons in a single month. Far fewer know of the Black Moon. The Black Moon, despite its sinister title, is equally lucky, but more mysterious. The Black Moon is the second New Moon in a single month. Usually about three to four years will pass between either Black or Blue Moons. The wise will make the most of the promise of the special magic the Black and Blue lunations invoke. The Black Moon opens a portal to other dimensions. It’s a time to connect with ghosts, the world of faerie and the planes of the ascended masters. Deep meditations under this cycle can bring guidance and answers on many levels. The intent is to help us all to cope with and understand the current planetary, political , cosmic and economic changes!
The August 30, 2008 Black Moon is at the 7th degree of Virgo, applying to conjoin Saturn and trine Jupiter. Serious issues involving the Earth and security are in the thoughts and hearts of many. Healing, service, animal companions, idealistic standards, communication and precision are the keynotes. The Sabian symbol is “a dance class instruction”, suggesting excellence in skill, cooperation and moving in harmony with others. The fixed star Zosma , a triple star of pale yellow and violet, hovers near a Virgo stellium involving the Sun, Moon and Saturn. The message is to rise above melancholy and altruistically consider the needs of others. Honor the greater good. Zosma does not favor the self serving. Riches and rewards will come to those who help others and are willing to grow.
The carnelian agate (health) and sapphire (peaceful love) are favorable crystals to wear or carry, colors to select for candles and wardrobe include mauve, navy, grey and lime. The aromatherapy fragrances of lavender (cheerful friends) and raspberry (anti stress) are desirable. Connect with Guardian Angel Auriel for blessings and favor. The influence of the Black Moon stays in force until the next New Moon on September 29, 2008.
