Summer Solstice, Full Moon, Lunar Eclipse

The Summer Solstice, the moment when the season changes from spring to summer, takes place on Monday, June 21, 2010 at 7:30 AM EDT. The Ingress Chart, the chart cast for the moment the Sun enters Cancer, is a useful tool to forecast what the season will bring. This Summer Solstice chart reflects the current turmoil in the world and promises more to come. The Sun in these Mundane Charts represents heads of state, CEO’s, leaders and any person who is in charge. Where the Sun is situated and aspects from the other planets point to the types of activities our leaders will be up to. Here in the US, with the Ingress Chart set for Washington, DC the Sun falls in the 12th house of secrets and behind the scenes manipulation and machinations. The Sun is under a lot of pressure receiving stressful aspects from the heavy hitters of the Zodiac, Saturn, Uranus and Pluto. President Barack Obama, a Leo, will put a good face on it all but he faces battles on many fronts, Wall Street, bankers, Congress, Courts as well as an international crisis or two to keep him on his toes. The season should get off to a rousing start as the Sun quickly squares off with Uranus, Mr. Surprise, and then Jupiter, Mr. Abundance. At the end of the week, the Full Moon Eclipse on June 26th sits with Pluto. This is not a happy little aspect. Pluto brings major upheaval. With Uranus and Jupiter in the mix, it is anything goes, from natural disasters, like earthquakes, volcanoes, storms and fires to manmade disasters like we are seeing in the Gulf of Mexico. It is going to be a roller coaster ride so hang on to your hat. I expect something really bizarre, seemingly from out of nowhere that will shock and dismay many people. Some of that shock comes from the actions of heads of state. Expect the unexpected. Meditate and take the higher path always. The highly spiritual individuals withstand these tumultuous periods easier than those who cling to social status and material things. Remember, this too shall pass.
