Epiphany and January

Actinolite.  Not to worry, we’ll get January’s rough edges smoothed out soon.

Epiphany has three meanings – a sudden and profound Insight, and a theophany – when a Deity appears to a Human, as the January 6 holiday celebrates.  And it’s the primary keyword we apply to the Mjolnir or Vajra, when a third planet passes the far Midpoint between two planets that are Squaring one another.  We equate it to the Mjolnir because both Thor’s Hammer and Indra’s Thunderbolt carried the impact of Lightning.

I think I’ve mentioned this before, but I certainly haven’t emphasized it.  Since December 10, until December 28, we’ve been working under the influence of a Neptune Mjolnir with Jupiter and Ceres –

Potential for Lightning-like Insights into Permanently Expanding our Relationship with Spirit.

I didn’t pay a lot of attention to it, until a reader asked about a Lifetime-scale Epiphany they had at the Solstice.  I looked for an astrological correlate in their Natal chart that would provide a context for it – no luck.  Then while I was looking up the centaurs and new dwarf planets that I don’t usually pay attention to, I finally noticed this Double Mjolnir in the Transit chart (the sky at the then-present moment) –

We’ll have to call this Configuration an Angel en Pointe.  The Moon is often a trigger for larger-scale Events, and here it would trigger Lightning from Uranus and Pluto –

Potential for Epiphanies into the relationship between our True Self and the Global Trance.

Added to Potential for Epiphanies into Permanently Expanding our Relationship with Spirit, that’s pretty intense.  Uranus, discovered around the same time as electricity, is associated with Lightning anyway.

We bring this up because, while the Neptune-Jupiter-Ceres Mjolnir ended yesterday (given our usual three degrees of Sensitivity), a whole family of related Mjolnirs hangs around for months.  Look at the New-Year chart…

Vesta has moved in to replace Ceres in the Neptune-Jupiter Mjolnir –

Potential for Lightning-like Insights into Expanding our Connection to the Sacred, likely through real Experiences with Spirit that cause us to rethink our Beliefs.

This Mjolnir runs from December 23 until January 7, and, being prominent in the New-Year chart, will be in effect through all of 2014.

Meanwhile, Ceres has moved ahead to create a second Mjolnir with Lilith, focused on Chiron…

Potential for Epiphanies that Permanently shift our relationship with our Instincts to make room for Miracles.

This Mjolnir endures through January – and its indirect impact all year.  And as you can see, Mars and Juno are queued up to join the show!  Well, Mars cops out, as it’s slowing to turn Retrograde on March 1.  But Juno, representing

The Threshold of Consciousness or quite literally, the Veil that occults the Other Side,

jumps in starting January 4, first

• January 9 brings us a brief Grand Trine between the Moon, Pluto, and Pallas…
  • A good time to begin deciding where we want to put the bulk of our Efforts at helping to Reform the Planetary Trance – we don’t have to do it all ourselves, we can pick a specialty;
• Starting a new 4-year Juno-Neptune Cycle on January 9 at 4 Pisces, “Heavy traffic on a narrow isthmus between two seashore resorts“…
  • Opening major links between Source and  Consciousness;

  • In order to make room in our Lives for the Increasing demand to help shift the Global Trance, we need to stretch our Edges to make room for more Miracles, and set solid Boundaries against Discouragement;

• On January 25 Juno is Initiated by Chiron to begin a new Cycle at 12 Pisces, “In the sanctuary of a Mystery School newly initiated members are examined and their character tested.”  This is getting heavy…
  • Sounds like a good day to separate the Oats from the chaff and compost the chaff;
• Starting January 31, Juno sweeps the North Node into its influence, so we have a Chiron-Lilith-Vesta/Ceres Mjolnir and a Juno-Lilith-Vesta/Ceres/North Node Mjolnir…

• Starting January 31, Retrograde Jupiter backs into a Uranus-Pluto-Jupiter T-Square…
  • Now we have to start Expanding our Yintegrity into more areas of our Lives;
• On January 31, Venus Stands Still and goes Direct within spitting distance of Pluto and…
  • We have to start integrating all these Epiphanies into our Everyday Life and Values;
• And so on into February!

Sounds like it’s time to cut back on our fiddling and get serious about our work Transforming our Planet.  While the Mystic Rectangle is a boon, I think January may find us longing for the persistent Grand Trines and Grand Sextiles of “Good Ol’ 2013.”  When we meet friends we’ll be starting conversations with “Wow, do you remember 2013?  Wasn’t that a great year?”

Their are few friends better than a smooth Nephrite Jade boulder, which you can make by tumbling Actinolite in the surf on a beach of nice Quartz-Sand polishing grit for several millennia.  You can even use it for Scrying.  Do you remember where you left yours?  Oh well, by the end of January you’ll be able to just call it to you.
