Lunar eclipses are dramatic and emotional. And this Moon is strong in her own protective sign of Cancer. On the same day, Uranus, planet of change, turns direct in Taurus, sign of the Earth. All of this signals that we’ve reached a tipping point, collectively, and personally. Outrages against Mother Earth can no longer be ignored. We must also face what’s unsustainable in our own lives and in need of transformation.

In the heart of a cold and brittle winter, Saturn and Pluto’s wolves are howling in the distance. They howl warnings about crumbling institutions, the deteriorating climate, and the fearsome calamities that threaten us – joblessness, poverty, homelessness, starving, illness.

At the solar eclipse, something is trying to get your attention – like the Moon, rising up in front of the Sun as if to say, “Just hold it a second – you’re missing something!” People from the past or the present appear on the scene to behave in inexplicable ways. The person you used to be, the one you thought you’d outgrown, is trotted out in front of you as a reminder that you really haven’t changed all that much; you’re still the same old mess you were, back when you had the bad relationship, when you flunked out of school, when you best friend told you to get lost.
