That...might explain my behavior. Might.

I just looked out my window and saw a crackhead stealing a car radio

I hope it wasn't your car that the crackhead was stealing it from.

psychodelicide said:

nah im joking. lol

Wow, the sky around the moon looks clear, even in the dark, and I can see clouds blowing around and over the moon. Pretty cool.

DanceWme said:

I looked out my window just now so I could post something interesting/amusing on this thread, but I actually only found that I was reminded of how none of my neighbors turn on their outdoor lights.

Protege said:

Really? I hate dark streets, they're eerie.

That means Imago is going to turn into a man.

psychodelicide said:

I don't mind the dark (especially right now with this headache ) but it's disturbing that nobody seems to like lights out here. Great idea, people, don't turn on any lights...

Protege said:

You would think that people would turn lights on for safety.

no wonder i cant sleep tonight.

Full Moon in Libra

A Full Moon in Libra asks each of us to practice one particular relational skill: listening attentively with an open heart, an open mind, and without interruption or feedback. And yet effective communication could be a wild card on this Full Moon due to a square from Jupiter (expansiveness) in Sagittarius (belief in essential goodness) to the Mercury (mind)/Uranus (awakening)/North Node (evolutionary growth) conjunction in Pisces (unconditional love or codependency, depending on your focus), and an inconjunction from the Libra Moon to Mercury/Uranus/North Node conjunction. These aspects could certainly murky the "relational" waters to the point of total confusion or profoundly deepen a sense of love and connectedness. If anything, it will certainly highlight any issues you might have with setting personal limits and boundaries and/or maintaining a sense of self when interacting with others: two big learning curves for any Libra native.

So, back to deep listening. What exactly will we be listening for? Hopefully we can each attend to the voices of All Our Relations. This includes every living thing, on all planes of existence, on this planet, in our solar system, in our galaxy, and all throughout the multiplicitous universe. Think of this day as an invitation to enter into a sacred circle with every one and every thing you encounter. Talk less, listen more and learn from every word, every movement, every intimation, and every action. With the light of the Full Moon making all things knowable, it is our job to open ourselves wide and take in all of life: the joy, the pain, the suffering, the ecstasy, the extraordinary, the ordinary, the pure, the defiled, the ignorance and intelligence.

When the Moon is full in Libra, the Sun is shining brightly in Aries. The polarity of these two opposing signs represents knowing self in an effort to know others; thereby allowing others to truly know us. The Libra Moon reflects the light of Arian individuality and uses it as the fuel for greater understanding of others. Know thyself and the true nature of all things will be revealed. This year, with Mars (self-directed action)/Neptune (oneness or codependence)/Chiron (wounding) in Aquarius (individuation or alienation), Venus (heart) in Taurus (embodied caretaking), Mercury/Uranus in Pisces, and Jupiter in Sagittarius, revelation could come in the form of recognizing the relationship between how we take care of ourselves and how we caretake others. Are our own emotional needs being met in large measure because we refuse to take into consideration the needs of others? Or are our own needs being dismissed in order to fulfill the wishes and desires of others? These are decisively Libran questions whose answers are often laden with a sense of doing whatever it takes to avoid conflict. Hopefully working on appropriate ways to express anger has been a goal since the New Moon in Pisces. This is the Full Moon to celebrate all of that transformative work and see if you can put it into practice through effective and healthy communication.

This is the Full Moon to gather with others and celebrate togetherness, commonality, love and peace. It is important to fully experience how your actions affect the people in your life. If it's been ages since your family sat down together for dinner, this is the night for a good meal with great conversation. Sharing and listening breaks down barriers and engenders love. If you choose to do a nighttime Full Moon ritual, revel in the natural beauty that surrounds you. If it is warm enough, have your celebration outside under the Full Moon and invite the birds and animals to come into your circle of love. Believe me, an openhearted invitation is all they need and boy do they have a lot to say! Those of you celebrating Passover with family and friends, have a built in opportunity to be in relationship with those you love.

This is a great Full Moon for a lunchtime party at your office. Make the theme working together to achieve common goals. Set up chairs in a circle and make it a time for deep listening and sharing of ideas. Pass an object round the circle: whoever has it talks, and everyone else listens without interruption. Allow the thoughts and ideas to flow. You will know what subject is the best one to focus on. It could be a current project, or your company's bottom line, or team building. Make sure you leave some time to discuss how the company can give back to your local community through volunteerism or project funding.

Libra rules Karma (action) and it is Libra's job to give us the ability to pursue "right action". What is this principle of right action?

Seek justice with fairness and balance.
Embrace your differences without being attached to them.
Work to understand viewpoints other than your own.
Remember "the truth" is relative and based upon one's perception.
Initiate compromise, the basic building block of all solutions.
When we give a little we get a lot. When we give a lot, we get more than we can imagine.
Negotiation can always be the first and last response to conflict.
Violence is not a viable way to bring peace. Violence only begets more violence.
Insist on peace and non-violence.
When you cause pain and suffering to others, you destroy yourself in equal measure.
Saying and doing everything with love, compassion and respect is the only way to win.
These principles are applicable to all our relationships, be they intimate, familial or professional. Think of how different our world would be if we all practiced these principles. It is every person's responsibility to make sure that every other person lives in peace, free of violence and fear. That every person has shelter, food, access to good medical care and an education.

Libra perceives the differences, but understands that our underlying commonality makes it impossible to do unto others without simultaneously doing the same to ourselves. How long will it take our species to realize that violence only begets more violence? Libra rules negotiation. It is time to open a dialogue; voices not bullets are needed now. Use this Full Moon to release all the intentions you have been building since the New Moon in Pisces to be a peacemaker.

America's needless aggression has unnecessarily sacrificed the lives of over 3000 of our service men and women, and somewhere between 50,000 and 100,000 Iraqis: and so many of our military personnel are physically maimed or suffering with PTSD. And for what? The fear and ignorance of our leaders has destroyed a foreign nation, demoralized our own nation, weakened our military forces, and we the American public idly sit by and let it continue. I find myself feeling ashamed of my country, and my own inability to effect real change within it. Every morning I say a prayer for peace, a prayer for our soldiers in Iraq, and a prayer for forgiveness.

We each have a responsibility to make sure that every other living thing on this planet is accorded the right to exist. They are All Our Relations; what we do to nature, we do to ourselves. We are our eco-system: our poisoned water, air and land is a reflection of our own poisonous thoughts and actions. We will have to learn to live together in harmony and peace. So celebrate the love and commit to peace on this Full Moon in Libra.

Lookin forward to the full moon tonight ...and specially cause I am a Libra!!
