though his website is horribly dysfunctional, A. T. Mann is a brilliant astrologer who i have a lot of admiration and respect for & i thought i would share with y’all this newsletter of his from the recent penumbral lunar eclipse. 

if you have the time or resources, i encourage you to check out his work as well as his services!!

We entered spring with the Equinox at 11:30PM EDT on Saturday night, and began another yearly cycle with a relatively fresh start. However there are powerful forces coming in the form of the Lunar Eclipse on Wednesday, March 23 at 8:02AM EDT. As the Sun is exalted (particularly clear and strong) in the sign Aries, it is often that we begin to “see” clearly and sharply issues that have been hazy or ambiguous lately, partially due to the group of planets wandering through the watery Pisces. Now that the Sun is there in Aries and is joined by Mercury at the “heart of the sun,” we should be straightening out quite important situations and clearing our minds. Incidentally, as we approach this eclipse it is a very good idea to put in mind what you want to accomplish, see, do and act for the coming months as it is a “seeding” time, when we plant the seeds of ideas in our own minds and then watch them grow underground first, then break the surface of consciousness, and eventually birth themselves and blossom. This is the key to the true are of manifestation that we can utilize in times such as these.

Typically when Mercury is within a few degrees of the Sun, due to the sheer size and influence of the Sun, Mercurial ideas, thoughts and writings are overshadowed and weakened, however when it is right in the middle those communications are highlighted and come across as much stronger statements of where we want to go. The eclipse Moon opposite the Sun in Libra also enlivens this. It therefore has a particularly strong effect on our relationships, agreements, and potential collaborations and also signals a time when it is valuable to sublimate, or to put yourself below others you value and see what happens. This typically lets us understand our partners more clearly and also gives any relationship a breath of fresh air, characteristic of this time of the year. We open ourselves up to taking in and that also enables our inner desires and needs (Mars rules Aries), and since the Moon is sextile Mars in Sagittarius now, this brings more energy to us than we imagine and can be a very positive thing to do. So this little constellation of Sun conjunct Mercury, opposite Moon and all in connection to Mars is a compact loop of energy that while it can be selective, can also be used to focus us upon important goals arising in these days. It is fascinating that the one constellation I just described involves the eclipse itself, the seeing-eye of Mercury and the energy of Mars, while there is one other constellation that includes all of the other planets, and that signals power, conflicts of strength, and a great degree of concentration and discipline. At the core is the now almost exact challenging square between Jupiter in Virgo and Saturn in Sagittarius. We are asked to make hard choices about what philosophy, belief, understanding and measure of truth that we accept, in a time when both planets are in mutable (changeable) signs, meaning that we are likely in flux and unsure about what we used to accept as our beliefs. This bending of what we believe, of our truths, is extremely disorienting. I don’t know about you, but many of my most trusted and intelligent friends don’t really support or favor any of the range of potential American presidents and are in a quandary about it. This is possibly a signature of the time and is a strange one to take in. Saturn in Sagittarius shows rigid beliefs, fundamentalism still rife and deeply held but radical religious, social, national or racial biases all exaggerated to the extent that it sometimes feels like everyone has such biases, if you look closely enough. We therefore need the breath of Jupiter's fresh air to inhale, exhale out the toxic ideas everyone is being fed by the corrupt media, and try to start afresh, somehow. The Moon’s North Node is conjunct Jupiter, which shows that our Virgoan decision-making skills are critical here and that we must be vigilant in our fact-checking, as well as the critical choices we must make about our diet, our water, our food, even the air we breathe as most of what we see in your average grocery supermarket is complete rubbish and not worth eating or drinking. What a state of affairs? We must make the right choices on that score also. These two powerhouses (the two largest planets) tell us that they are competing for our attention, which puts us on the line. The capricious, spiritual and yet partially submerged Neptune and the artistic, creative and loving Venus in Pisces are in a T-square with Jupiter and Saturn, which makes our task of clarification even more difficult because a lot of the information we are given is clearly either not true (often on purpose) or no one is clear enough to distinguish which is which. While many still tout our educational system, when you see how easily the public is conned it makes one wonder about the masses and their ability to not be conned. Neptune exaggerates strange and insular postulates about all kinds of subjects, and since personal media have basically undermined our sense of boundaries, we are never sure who is listening in to our conversations, emails and internet fancies, as Apple is finding out. Are we not a step closer to Big Brother? Venus is exalted in Pisces and while the confusion might not enable us to see ahead clearly, we can be extremely creative if we listen to our inner voices, through initiatory influences and groups, and meditative processes that we import into our day-to-day lives successfully.  Indeed Venus is moving toward Chiron as well, which can bring deep inspiration and unusual realizations that can be very creative as well. We see more of those we love, and also have a need to heal them from the best possible motives, as well as of course wanting to initiate healing of ourselves and our lives too. Uranus in Aries and Pluto in Capricorn remain locked into their square also, which is tied into the other planets, looking like an artistic centipede stretching around the chart, and this means that collective issues are penetrating our personal views of the world as well as our plans for the future, and these seem more difficult than usual to decipher, just as our political system seems to be broken in such complicated ways that it is hard to imagine anyone being able to penetrate it and make what is broken, whole. It is fascinating on that score that seven of the ten planets and luminaries are between 10° and 21° of their signs, which means that those with birthdays between about the second to the thirteenth of each month are most likely to trigger these planetary configurations and feel the effects of that which I am describing more acutely than the others. It also means that those people are more likely and/or able to utilize this time for transformation, for shifting difficult patterns into more positive directions, and also to feel that you are moving ahead in your life. If you are interested in having an Update, a Life Time reading that starts with your conception and echoes your deepest creative functions, or even a Mandala Astrological Tarot reading, please do let me know. I am also pleased to announce that my 1986 book “The Divine Plot: Astrology and Reincarnation” will be published in Italian within the next two years, which is a treat and very good to see. And thank those of you who read and responded to my little letter/article about Prediction for the ISAR E-Zine last week. I think that it is a clear exposition of my methods learned over all these years. If you didn’t read it, you can find a link to it on my website. I am also currently working on converting my newsletters into weblogs with animation charts and my explanations of them. Look for them in the near future.

Be well and do be in touch,

ATM
