Aries-Libra LUNAR ECLIPSE awakens the CARDINAL CROSS – the
cosmic mandala of the CENTRAL SPIRITUAL SUN
“
The mandala is an archetypal image whose occurrence is attested throughout the
ages. It signifies the wholeness of the Self. This circular image represents
the wholeness of the psychic ground or, to put it in mythic terms, the divinity
incarnate in man.” Jung
Tibetans also call the mandala a ‘celestial palace’ where
all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas abide to help transform the mundane psyche into
sacred unity. Having a balanced
heart-mind makes for an optimum meditation to remain at the centre of holy-ness,
made especially demanding during the upcoming Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in
harmonious Libra 14/15th (8:40am BST) at 26 Libra/Aries, is followed in
two weeks by the Taurus Solar Eclipse.
☩ Practice staying at centre (of the mandala): hydrate, eat
well, sleep well, exercise enough, and set the intention to raise Bodhicitta
and get ready to ride the karmic winds of Monday night/Tuesday morning's total
eclipse of the Moon, which will be visible across North America. This eclipse
is also accompanied by the CARDINAL Cross of The Central Spiritual Sun (and the
5th of 7 Uranus-Pluto squares, plus Jupiter squares both Uranus & Pluto on
20th/21st April), once again accenting our ability to self-motivate and radiate
LoveLight from heart-mind and awaken to truth, in any given situation (when
having a good intention makes life easier).
Think back to the last set of similar Aries/Libra eclipses,
in October ’13, and note changes in being able to a) more easily embrace and
access the love-wisdom and b) release negative thought and behavioural patterns,
which specifically affect the health and wellbeing of (a certain) relationship.
Even if that relationship is only with self and environment, the chances are
that you/we are all more aware of the need for heroic individual cooperation
and participation when creating stability and equanimity.
Now we are in the dynamic year of the high-minded Wood
Horse, whose season is spring, there’s no time like the present to acknowledge
the need to fulfil responsibilities and put all positive HorsePower into action.
Though there is galloping sense of
urgency with the most virtuous actions, caution is still advised while Mars is
retrograde in Libra and conjunct the eclipsed Moon.

This cosmic and incredibly profound Cardinal Cross of the
Central Spiritual Sun has, over the past four years, come in and out of orb
with varying intensity since 2010 - and will continue to do so for another
year. Indeed, we've even had this vibrant Cross of action present in recent
eclipses before too, specifically July 1st 2011, which represented an elevation
of critical spiritual mass (in which social media surely plays a part) as well
as an awareness about difficulties (and their causes).
Though much depends upon how we view and react to current challenges,
this set of eclipses now fast approaching will first see the Lunar eclipse on
the 14/15th (8:40am BST) where, interestingly, the Solar principle is exalted
by the Sun in Aries. This is followed by a Solar eclipse in two weeks, 29th
April, when the Lunar principle is exalted with the Moon in Taurus. This is an
extraordinary exaltation of both ‘Lights’ within consecutive eclipses. As Sun,
Moon and Earth align in such an exalted manner, it provides the perfect
opportunity to balance both male & female sides of ourselves, as well as
within relationship – through thought-provoking and possibly demanding situations.
The importance of this totally cosmic Cardinal Cross lies in
its ability to bring divinity to life, within everyone and everything, raising
consciousness so that all can be aware how we co-create with our Universe. When
we see the Divine in everything, then everything becomes Divine, sacred and
whole. We can call it ascension or awakening, but by the time this time of
Cardinal Cross moves on, many more people will have become aware that Spirit is
being initiated into a greater understanding of interconnected Oneness.

Astrological key points for this Cardinal Cross of the
Central Spiritual Sun reinforce innovative and exciting energies that generate
movement and action.: Gathering kindred spirits together is planet Uranus as
the instigating agent of change; Jupiter synthesizes with a caring and hopeful
overview, and is exalted in Cancer; while communicative Mercury, in assertive
Aries, is in the sign of Aries' esoteric rulership, next to Uranus, which is
the hierarchical ruler of Aries, this powerful Aries energy urges the Spiritual
Warrior towards an altruistic objective an to think clearly. When we add the
Sun’s exaltation in Aries to the mix, energizing this Cardinal Grand Cross with
the Light of Life's pure Light vibration, Aries therefore becomes the only sign
stimulated and strengthened on all levels: orthodox, esoteric and hierarchical.
This means active Aries is triple powered. And while the retrograde Mars rules
Aries (though now in Libra (and with the Full Moon)), one gets the sense the
zodiac’s defender and warrior is being roused with the motivation to be brave
and do what is right and fair. This is not to say situations will run smooth,
as there will be quakes and flares to heighten any intensity: it is Eclipse
Season, after all. But the challenge now is to find new ways to kindle justice
and peace, beauty and culture, for all beings to harmonize important
relationships, be those with friends, family, authority, or even the
relationship we have with ‘self’; for it is only when we embrace what is good
and familiarize ourselves with virtuous action can freedom, both personal and
collective, flower and bloom.
