Lunar Eclipse squares Pluto, in ecliptic conjunction to the Sombrero Galaxy (M104) and parallel to the Great Orion Nebula (M42), indicating dramatic events in society and the economy while increasing productivity


The Lunar Eclipse of April 4, 2015 presents indicators of drastic changes as it enhances the intense square between Uranus and Pluto, indicating a semester of renewal, in which our goals as a species and as individuals are questioned

          During a lunar eclipse, the Earth is aligned with the Sun and the Moon, casting its shadow on the lunar surface, temporarily suspending the constant barrage of light and particles from the Sun. It is actually a darkened Full Moon, which in symbolic terms means a consciousness that is dipped momentarily in the Unconscious. During a lunar eclipse, the consciousness represented by the Full Moon is soaked directly on the universe's pond, which represents the collective plane. The Moon stops reflecting the solar ego for a few moments, and instead, connects with a higher plane. At such times, the Moon has two dark sides and is fully immersed in the collective unconscious, which imprints its characteristic mark in that moment. The eclipse points towards a specific point of the celestial sphere which symbolizes an area in which we must acquire a greater awareness to evolve.  And that happens here, on the Earth's surface. Since the period of influence is six months-until the next eclipse happens, the astrological chart for that moment reveals  some important trends during the next six months


A drastic, extremist and innovative trend


    The point where the eclipse happens indicates an area in which we acquire and expand our consciousness. The eclipse of April 4, 2015, makes us take a very straightforward look into the abuse of economic and political power. Of course, we don't need an eclipse to happen to let modern civilization manifest its abusive patterns, but it seems that this time, the lunar eclipse will function as a push to accelerate the process of change already going on with the square between Uranus and Pluto, which is effective since 2011. The eclipse happens in almost exact square (90 °) to Pluto, a planet associatedastrologically with profound changes. Pluto, by the way,  will be visited by a spacecraft next July (Do not miss the coverage!). The eclipse is also  in opposition to Uranus, which is 2 ° from the Sun. Uranus represents revolutions, adding to Pluto's extremist trend.

     In short, the eclipse accentuates the tendency to change but also to extremism and abuse of power. On this occasion, the eclipse is conjunct the Sombrero Galaxy (M104). This galaxy has several interesting features: it moves at high speed (1,000 km per second), has a colossal black hole of 1 billion solar masses, and a lane of dark dust which is very bright in the infrared spectrum. Of these features, perhaps the most important one is the massive black hole at its center, which undoubtedly speaks of a great power of attraction, although quite exaggerated, which suggests the theme of abuse of power. Considering that M104 is very bright in the infrared, its relationship with the material world and the economy becomes clear. If we combine the two meanings, we have a great manipulation coming from the established economic power (and therefore political). If we include the Uranus / Pluto square, the idea that comes to  mind is a great crisis in the global economy provoked by the corporations who hold economic power internationally. The picture does not look very encouraging ...


Awareness of abuse and radicalization

   This manipulation is precisely the one to be aware of. Humanity must face consciously the extent of the damage caused by it. Unfortunately, at the collective level this suggests that the irrational over-exploitation of natural resources and disasters are likely to interfere with the normal productivity in several regions of the planet. It implies becoming aware of the danger that radicalization implies for the balance of civilization. The events related to the eclipse, as the massacre at the University of Kenya, tragically highlight the need to evolve rapidly towards a greater harmony ... After all, the eclipse happens in the zodiac sign of Libra, which represents coexistence and harmony. Actually, what the eclipse  points out is  that what we need to grow as a society to strengthen coexistence, so we do not radicalize, divide, confront, and ultimately dominate, kill and destroy. The planet belongs to everyone and there is room for everyon; it seems we have to remember this each time we hurt ourselves or the environment.

    The eclipse,  conjunct with extremely fast Sombrero Galaxy, can speed up the story, and coincide with dramatic events that make us question fundamental issues about our society and civilization. The regular sense of time can be distorted and make us feel that things are moving too fast. The semester will be over before we realize it... But changes can be for good, despite the heartbreaking news, we may also hear about great advances in terms of creating a new, different and better world. We need to generate constructive alternatives to balance the destruction we've done. What is certain is that there is no place for stability unless we fight to move to the next stage as a species and as a society.  Unfortunately, the collective consciousness has to go through tragic steps to acquire this awareness, as happened with the world wars, the atomic bomb and many other disastrous events.


Productivity to balance

     Since no one can avoid this destructive trend in social terms while the Uranus/Pluto is still in effect (begins to fade at the end of April) at least it is possible to redirect our goals with greater awareness at an individual level . During these months ahead, we will gain a greater consciousness of our individual position in the collective process we are living. The lunar eclipse occurs in parallel (the same declination or distance from The Celestial Equator) with the Great Orion Nebula (M42), a stellar region with the highest rate of star production  in the galaxy. So, against all odds, it is possible to emphasize our productivity in any area, as a way to compensate for destruction. In a real sense, M42 is like a Great Mother by the large number of newborn stars that are being creating in its interior. M42 is a project incubator, and this means that the eclipse also triggers a productive wave that can be beneficial for those who are aware of it and are willing to take advantage of it.

     The question is to observe and spot the area that begins to manifest this productivity, at during the month of April or perhaps even May. Once we identify where is this happening in our life, we must act decisively on this during the coming months. Similarly, sowing seeds and starting projects in the next two weeks will make these bloom during the next semester. Thus, we can connect to a productive impulse that can be helpful in case the economy collapses or wobbles.


Awareness of the individual role in the collective development

    It seems this can be a very productive semester despite the disastrous conditions at the international level. It is important to be aware of the role we have individually within the political and economic system in which we live. M42, the Great Nebula in Orion, is full of resources, but the Sombrero Galaxy can abuse them. It is our duty to protect the planet before it's too late, and this semester can be decisive for it. Failure to act on it can be harmful ... Let's start becoming aware of what we do to worsen or improve the situation on this planet!

     Each and every one of us  has a place in the socio-economic system and in the planet. Our decisions count. Such is the distilled message of the April 2051 lunar eclipse ...

Have a productive semester while you have fun surfing the changes!
