“To live in the light of a new day and an unimaginable and unpredictable future, you must become fully present to a deeper truth – not
a truth from your head, but a truth from your heart; not a truth from your ego, but a truth from the highest source.” ~ Debbie Ford
This month’s Full Moon is occurring in Sagittarius, which is the zodiac sign associated with the center of our galaxy — the position of the black hole. The Mayans refer to this location as the “road to awe.” They revere it as the “cosmic womb of the great mother” and it is the celestial point in space where our solar system just recently completed its 26,000-year cyclic passage. The Mayans have an extraordinary astronomical calendar that predicted this sacred passageway as occurring from 1980 through 2016. [1] They believe it was during this period that much of humanity experienced an unprecedented spiritual rebirth.
Astrologically, Sagittarius and the center of our galaxy represent “wisdom” or “truth consciousness.” The cosmic light emanating from the center of our galaxy is intended to transform and purify each of us into an eventual awakening! This awakening is the truth consciousness that we are not separate from divine. It is this truth we will each ultimately seek and are destined to realize.
This Full Moon is also important because it is joining the planet Saturn, and these two will not be together again (in the sign of Sagittarius) until 2044. Our personal, collective, and social political ideals are radically shifting during this historic time period. I wrote in my Saturn in Sagittarius article, which I posted in 2014, that changes during this period would come about in the areas related to education, religion, and political scandals. I also noted that there would likely be archeological and space discoveries that would challenge our current belief structures and simultaneously expand our consciousness. All of this has occurred, and you can expect more unfolding of the above with an ever greater intensity in the next few months as Saturn prepares to leave the sign of Sagittarius, towards the end of December.
As a fiery and freedom oriented sign, Sagittarius is also associated with travel, abundance, learning, inspiration, optimism, joy, nature, and most importantly, that which provides purpose and meaning in our lives. Because Sagittarius highlights liberation, this is an opportune time to contemplate the areas of your life where you may feel trapped or unable to manifest your true authentic self.
Embrace this Full Moon with awe and wonder, and create an intention to find meaning, optimism and joy in your future, and gratitude for the life you are living.
1. The Galactic Alignment zone is 1998 +/- 18 years = 1980–2016. Precession is caused by the earth wobbling very slowly on its axis and shits the position of the equinoxes and solstices one degree every 71.5 years. Because the Sun is one-half a degree wide 36 years is the suggested time window for the Sun to precess (journey) through the galactic equator. John Major Jenkins: http://www.alignment2012.com.
