Leo New Moon in conjunction with the Sun opposition Jupiter, Chiron and Neptune (August 20, 2009) Another Super Moon, the fourth of five this year! The moon is closest to Earth is called perigee and the New Moon phase will increase the gravitational pull on ocean tides and plate tectonics. And of course our emotional responsiveness to be resolved as well! As we have said before, the Moon reflects our filter and emotional perception of the world. And the full moon and new moon are special because they are still points of changing direction and speed, a moment to catch his breath and refocus us.
New Moon
Every New Moon offers us a new beginning a new cycle, a clean slate to start. There is some magic in those turning points of the new moon and full moon because it is in the solstice and the equinox. These are universal rhythms that remind me of our breathing. When we breathe, we provide the body with fresh oxygen and life force, then there is a moment of silence before we breathe, releasing the old and stagnant, and another fixed point and the cycle starts again.
For me, astrology is just a great way to find my place in this magnificent universal cycles and an understanding in how to apply the wisdom found within it.
There are short cycles of waxing and waning and there are more cycles of the Sun moving through the year. Each station in a different sign describes a particular quality universal available at this moment in time.
One could say that the cycle of the moon in the zodiac is an indicator of the emotional imprint of the Sun and the cycle is how consciousness and life in general is affected.

The sign of Leo is a sign of courage, to climb to challenges, taking the leadership and the Holy Grail to the Lion Heart. The Grail in the story of King Arthur is the symbol for awakening her true divine nature, becomes illuminated if you want.
The film The Excalibur tells the story of the quest for what ails the country and the king. The solution and the answer is found by one of the knights of the Grail in the form at the bottom of a river. Water has always been a symbol of our unconscious and is governed by the Moon. When Lancelot-Grail gives the king and he said: "The King and the earth is!" And the king was cured of the disease that had it. This message of unity that our true nature is the potential of the Sun / Moon constellation.
We really live in a time of unprecedented change and with the potential to jump to a higher level of consciousness and spiritual experience beyond any doubt of our interdependence and unity, not only as a species, but with all forms realizes.
/ Opposition Moon Sun Jupiter, Chiron and Neptune
This alliance is to show us the way to the Age of Aquarius and could be one of the steps to get there. The Age of Aquarius is conceived as the moment of our human evolution where the principles of equality, diversity, peace, freedom and abundance for all become reality. I grant you, we are still far, but I believe that this constellation is preparing the ground for the conduct of it.
Add Pluto to Capricorn is the combination and you can see what I mean. "Pluto is the one that destroyed the old, stiff, not to serve and structures of society.
Jupiter is looking for new and better ways to grow, learn, and a deeper sense of our humanity. Chiron is involved in showing us our weaknesses and different injuries that we need for healing step forward in new without old baggage. Neptune is the dream of possibilities.
