Virgo Balsamic Moon
ॐOracular Mantra—surrendering to that which is necessary…
Author Richard Rudd states that “there are three classic paths that lead toward higher consciousness; they are meditation, concentration, and contemplation… meditation is the great passive art in which all forms, thoughts and feelings are simply witnessed exactly as they are—over time, this continued witnessing gives way to the natural arising of great inner clarity, which culminates in an enlightened view of the nature of reality…”
A balsamic moon is a moon that inspires self-soothing, and rest, surrender, and retreat, all in preparation for personal revival.
Much how meditation lends itself to clarity, surrender lends itself to eventual enlightenment.
In Virgo, the go-to balsamic resolve would be meditation, mindful contemplation, or walking alone quietly somewhere quiet and quaint… what to do if you’re unable to meditate, contemplate mindfully, or go out alone walking?—you can still self-soothe or simply arrange for more sleep.
❝It’s quiet now. So quiet that I can almost hear other people’s dreams.❞
——Gayle Forman
But sometimes meditation resembles more of a deepening and heightened awareness.
As the moon continues to separate from Neptune as Neptune moves more tightly into the t-square alignment with the Nodes, self-soothing and sleeping, meditation and mindful contemplation are recommended, as it might be growing more dramatically difficult to differentiate up from down these days, shadows from darkness, and much more ‘right’ from ‘wrong’ or pure light from reflections… and when it comes to taking care of yourself—it’s never wrong… everything in balance.
The dutiful moon moves on to connect to the heavyweights in Capricorn by trine, as both Jupiter and Saturn continue to move closer and closer toward Aquarius… and this might suggest personal goals becoming more justified, and convinced of potentials. Use this time wisely.
❝Potential has a shelf life.❞
——Margaret Atwood
As Rudd both advises and assures, “contemplation demands relaxation and patience… contemplation is one of the greatest and last understood of the ancient mystical arts and paths…”
Interestingly, by January 2nd, when the moon is in Virgo next, to reconnect by trine, both Jupiter and Saturn will be in Aquarius and will thereby reconnect by trine only when the moon moves into airy Libra on January 5th—shifting this aspect connection from issues of security or concerns of practicality toward much more secured and practical ideas and ideals.
But for now, everything is falling into place, isn’t it?—and wouldn’t it be so nice to relax into this?—to trust this quietly, to mindfully visualize this, and to walk on, forwardly, toward your bluer than blue horizons… “armed with the art of playful yet focused contemplation and a healthy dose of patience and courage, you will make it through to the highest levels of human potential.”
❝Sweet are the thoughts that savour of content, the quiet mind is richer than a crown…❞
