Moon Enters Pisces & Mars Opposition Saturn & Moon into Aries (August 8 -9) Hurricane Warning for Hawaii
The specific changes of the astrological weather are not so impressive this weekend! Never the less it looks like the real weather might have some big splashes waiting for us here in Hawaii.
I am a member of the CERT, the Community Emergency Response Team on the island. We have been called in to an emergency briefing later in the day in preparation of the hurricane approaching the islands. It might still slow down or turn into a different direction. This is what we are praying for! But it is good to be prepared if it doesn’t!
The first thing that came to my mind was how fortunate I have been living her on this beautiful island for so many years now and how many things I have been taking for granted! A home, family, my friends, food, water, and all the amenities of live! I love the smallness of the island, everywhere I go I run into people I know. It is a small community of only 150 000 people plus tourists here on Maui.
Emergency Preparedness
Emergencies like this always have a way to put your priorities straight and wake you up to the present moment, make you feel very alive! It is a time to pull together as a community, helping each other, needing each others support. It is also a good reminder to check with your own emergency preparedness! You always want to have extra water and food for a week available wherever you live. A gallon of water per person is the minimum you need to plan for. Also think about having extra medication you are taking on a regular base.
Have extra batteries, a light, candles, a radio, maybe a little gas stove if electricity is going out! Fill up your gas in your car; charge your cell phone things like that.
If you live in Hawaii which is a hurricane and earth quake prone area, it is advised to have a walk out kit ready to go for evacuation needs. Again think about water, food, meds, a book or playing cards to spend time in a shelter, some change of clothe, a journal, a blanket…Hurricane shelters just provide you with a roof over your head, nothing else!
Tidy up around your house so no chairs, tables and stuff will be flying around. Be smart and prepared!
The Pisces Moon
This is a very compassionate and loving Moon position! In Pisces we will feel the inner connection with the divine and praying is a way of life.
The Moon moving into Pisces, the last sign in the evolution of the zodiac wheel. Pisces is a water sign, very easily impressed and the most sensitive sign of all. It is presenting us with a chance to turn inwards, to dream and fantasize, floating along with inner nudges and connect with the divine.
Moon is our emotional filter and perception to the world. By becoming aware of its constant change of position every 2 ½ days it helps to raise our awareness for our inner world of feelings and needs. It might help to be more compassionate with ourselves and others.
Moon in Pisces is very connected with others on a deep inner level. Pisces is the sign of oneness and interconnectedness and points towards a deeper truth of our humanness.
With Moon in Pisces there is the chance to tap into higher states of consciousness through meditation and contemplation which are keywords for Pisces.
Pisces: The Wise and Mystical Servant (Feb 20–March 20) is ruled by Neptune. Water is attributed to Pisces and it is considered a feminine sign.
By the end of the astrological year, all that has been learned in the previous months is integrated in Pisces. The gentle and sensitive Pisceans see life through a spiritual framework based on a deep sense of connection with others and with the entire universe. This gives them the gift of love, compassion, and empathy for others and they may choose careers in medicine, psychology, or spiritual work. They seek a higher consciousness, beyond the physical world. This is not a practical, earth-bound sign: Pisceans live in a mental world of dreams and fantasies that are expressed in artistic and spiritual ways. Of all the signs, they are the least invested in their own egos. They are not interested in winning conflicts and will avoid confrontation whenever possible.
Mars Opposition Saturn
This opposition is not exact yet but moving towards it. The theme here is the possible conflict between energy flowing against obstacles, maybe stagnation. It is always helpful to find constructive ways to help that energy flow in a purposeful guided way. Preparing yourself for emergency might be a good way to harness this potential in a good way.
On Sunday Moon is Moving on to Aries
And with that there will be fresh energy and purpose and a leaning towards quick reactive emotional responses. With the Moon in this sign we will feel strong and spontaneous emotions! There is an immediacy and intensity in the air. We might feel impatient and easily irritated. If somebody crosses you there will be immediate reaction or even retaliation.
Aries is a powerful symbol of new beginnings, energy, light, and creativity. People born under the sign of Aries may well turn out to be great leaders—if they can keep their aggression and tendency to dominate others in check. Aries must always be undertaking new projects, especially creative endeavors, to keep their high energy occupied. They are extroverts and tend toward impulsivity. Their challenge is to properly channel their energy.
Suggestion
Today is a good day to be grateful for all we have! With the inward emotion of Pisces I suggest for you to sit down with a cup of tea and take your journal to hand.
Write down everything you feel grateful for in all areas of your life. Allow yourself to really feel that!
I will be brief today because I have to get going with my own emergency preparedness.
