The Full Moon in Virgo will prove to be very cataclysmic for many people. Not only is the Full Moon being eclipsed, it will also be a Blood Moon.

According to various astrological news sources, the Full Moon will be at 13 Degrees of Virgo, which in my estimation is incorrect. The Moon will truly reach its full phase on March 3rd, at exactly 12:39 pm (PST), at 12 Degrees instead.

Traditionally the lunar title of “Blood Moon” is given to the first Full Moon after the harvest in October. It’s interesting to note that the Mayan culture had a special Goddess named “Xquic”, who ruled over the time of the Blood Moon, in particular.

My feeling about this Blood Moon is that it portends violence, loss, trouble with all things related to the astrological 6th House, ruled by Mercury. Things that will get further out of whack will involve Work, Health and Service issues (as Virgo is the Zodiacal ruler of this house). And since Mercury also rules the 3rd House of Gemini, expect squabbles with family members, and travel delays.

Since Mercury (ruler of Virgo) is also retrograde in Pisces right now (making annoying aspects with the Sun), there will be considerable problems in almost anything you attempt — so chill out already!

February 2nd is the time of Midwinter, celebrated as the Pagan holiday known as Imbolc, more commonly known as Candlemass, (also spelled “Candlemas”). Astrologically, this holiday is celebrated when the Sun is at 15 Degrees of Aquarius.

Imbolc, literally means,”in the belly” (of the Mother), for the seeds that are planted at the Winter Solstice are beginning to grow.

Symbolism of Imbolc: This is a time for ritual purification, and is a major Fire Festival (one of 4 celebrated by the ancient Celts). Sacred fires marked this holiday, in honor of the Maiden, Brigid (also known as Brigit) who symbolized the fire of healing and birth. In essence, this holiday celebrates the beginning return of the sun.

Although this is a season of coldness and rain, the sun is actually closest to earth at this time, even though we do not feel its warmth. It is at this time that we bring light into our lives.

Symbolism of Candlemass: Known as the “Festival of Lights”, at this time, we prepare light so that the goddess Brigid may find her way out of the darkness and return to us. In pagan lore, this is the time where Brigid (the Celtic Fire Goddess) acts as midwife to Spring, and this is the beginning of that season. Brigid is the triple goddess of poetry, smithcraft, and medicine.

Myths of the Goddess Brigid: The daughter of Spring is born of the White Goddess after her sexual union with the Horned God last Beltane. Under another name, Branwen, the virgin fertility goddess is invoked at this time.

It is also customary to weave “Brigid’s Cross” from straw and hang it upon the hearth. This is made in the shape of a wheel and during a sabbat, it is rolled down a hill while burning. At this time, a Witch attempts to understand the direction his or her life is taking. The Oak King rules.

Brigit as Bride: In Ireland, the Candlemass holiday is celebrated as the Feast Day of Brigid of the Candles (also known as “Bridget of Kildare”, the Celtic goddess of fire, the hearth, smithy, fields, poetry, and childbirth.)

New Moon in Capricorn PDF – Astro Chart and Aspects!

The New Moon in Capricorn at 28 Degrees will happen tonight at 8:08 pm, PST (11:08 pm, EST).

The Meaning of The New Moon: The New Moon is the beginning of the Waxing (growing) phase of the moon. This phase is best for starting projects, and attracting energy toward manifesting your desires for the next 14 days — that is, until the next Full Moon phase, which represents the next cycle of completion. (Learn more about the Voxx Magickal Forum and check out the folder for New Moon Rituals.

Meaning of the New Moon in Capricorn: The New Moon in Capricorn is one of the best for setting goals, initiating projects, and making a serious commitment toward manifesting your long-range plans.

Capricorn is ruled by the planet Saturn, and both sign and planet are associated with the ideas of restriction, and discipline — both necessary in order to accomplish the greater things in life.

Right now, Mars (the planet of action) is also in the sign of Capricorn, lending a kick-ass energy which enables us to actually fulfill our New Year’s resolutions! While Capricorn is the starting point for this new lunar phase, the energy will build, adding a positive sense of forward movement to all you attempt.

Procrastinate tomorrow! (lol) Right now, it’s time to get yourself in gear and start moving forward for once. Just because this energy is so powerful and positive, there’s a likelihood that you’ll expect results quickly — but, don’t get exasperated when this doesn’t happen. Just because you’re finally taking your life seriously doesn’t mean that everything can be magickally sorted out overnight. Have patience. That’s the ultimate Capricornian phrase. Chill out for heaven’s sake!

Planetary Aspects: Uranus and Jupiter make an uneasy 45-degree semisquare to the Sun-Moon conjunction. Meaning of this aspect suggests that plans can be disrupted at the last minute, so make sure to have a backup plan. In order to keep things going smoothly, it’s best to adapt to the situation, rather than give up entirely. You can still achieve your goals, but maybe just not as quickly as you had originally hoped. Balanced communication is necessary to keep pressure from building up. Roll with the punches, and don’t take things too personally at this time.

Global Effects of the New Moon in Capricorn: The Lunar/Saturn influence will no doubt be tough on weather patterns, and make us start paying attention to the damage we’re doing to the planet — not as punishment, but to guide us toward changing our patterns of planetary abuse.
