| The strongest aspect in today's chart is the Pisces Moon opposite the Virgo Mars. Mars energy is tidy, critical, focused, and detailed while the emotional Pisces Moon is dreamy, suggestible, pollyannaish, and weepy. Being in cardinal Houses (1st and 7th) makes them all the more strong and "out there!" In Mundane Astrology, we might say that the 1st House represents our citizens and the 7th House are citizens of other countries. Countries ruled by Pisces are: Africa (north), Asia (southern), Normandy, Portugal, Samoa, Ethiopia, Ghana, Monaco, Mongolia, Morocco. I don't know how they come up with that, but it sounds interesting. Of course we have to hear the shofar when it's the Crescent Moon (first sighting of the New Moon). Those of you who haven't read the article concerning the Shofar and ancient Israel, here's your chance. In the land of the ancient Israelites, the sighting of the Crescent Moon designated the New Moon. A really interesting article concerning the New and Full Moon cycle and celebration as well as mention of the calendar. |
