New Years Eve Full Moon Lunar Eclipse

The year ends with a very special Full Moon. Not only is it the second Full Moon of the month, the Moon is at perigee, closest to earth and it is a Partial Eclipse of the Moon, visible in Asia, Australasia, Europe and Africa. When Moon is at perigee and aligned with the Sun and Earth, it is called a Super Moon and often extreme weather takes place, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and other fun stuff. At the very least, expect extreme high tides and some erosion along vulnerable coastlines. At the Full Moon the Sun and Moon are in opposition to one another and the Astrological Chart set for this Full Moon at Washington, DC places emphasis on the 2nd and 8th houses, these are the houses of money, yours, mine, ours, and theirs. In the Astrology of world events, the 2nd house rules the budget, taxation, the treasury, and the money supply. The 8th house rules the nation’s financial relationships with other entities, debts owed, public loans, interest rates, and insurance and pension funds. Venus, the diplomat, is snuggled up nice and cozy between the Sun and Pluto. In this chart she rules the 12th house of hostage situations and terrorist activities as well as the 6th house of public health and armed forces. The 12th house in particular is very much about behind the scenes manipulation and covert acts of aggression. There is much talking and discussion going on and any acts of aggression will be more strategic in nature. We may not see these things, but what we will see is more talk, action and planning involving the economy. Despite all the happy tunes the financial pundits are singing, Wall Street is wobbling. The fat cats are taking their profits. On a personal level, these Moons pull those deep emotions to the surface, sometimes explosively, at other times, all sobbing and weeping. Be aware also of the rant and rave as well. The Cancer’s and Capricorns take the hit at this Full Moon while the Libra’s and Aries’ deal with the fall out. We’ll all feel a little bit restless and antsy. Try to channel the energy in a positive manner. Allow yourself and others to vent. Getting it off your chest is like a little safety valve and avoids a complete explosion/implosion.
