6.8 - Sun in Virgo and Moon in Scorpio

The Moon is in Scorpio from 18:46 GMT, 1 September 2011 to 21:03 GMT, 3 September 2011, marking the obscure transit of the Moon into the realm of deep emotional experiences, the crucial zone of the production, assimilation and release of grievances (Graha).

This is the combination 6.8, which is a blend of mutable Earth and fixed Water. Here the Virgo’s multi-dimensional intestine functions are at their peak. The most stagnant waste materials are retrieved and moved along the intestine through rhythmic dancing contractions of the intestinal muscles (peristalsis).

The pattern Sun in Virgo and Moon in Scorpio (6.8) mixes Virgo’s efficiency, purification, selection and service with Scorpio’s intensity, intimacy, passion, release and power. 

This is part of the guidance I received related to 6.8:

"This is a space of major healing. It involves letting go darkness and receiving light. It is about shifting the attention from darkness to light. When darkness comes, that’s very well, for it shows that the material of exchange is available. At this stage all that is required it to exchange darkness with light, feeling totally entitled to do so. Remember that this exchange is your Function: what you are supposed to do here, your true mission in life. Then do it!"

Since 6.8 is my natal binary, for matters of Virgo objectivity, I am not going to comment further and I will refer to another source and quote from © Michael McClain 1996-2003.

“The combination of Sun in Virgo and Moon in Scorpio produces one that looks and acts like an intellectual, but with an emotional nature that is truly the driving force. This is perhaps the most emotional of the quiet Virgo breed. The quick mind and common sense that is so notable in all with Virgo Sun, is charged with an intense rashness and impulsiveness common to Scorpio. Your ability to reason and rationalize is well developed, but you often seem almost incapable of believing what is foreign to your internal emotional bias. Thus, you become very partisan in whatever causes or ideas light you fire. These you may rationalize and try to give intellectual status, but you usually color judgments with intuition rather than logic. You are facile at thinking up reasons why your ideas are right and always persuasive at putting them across. At times you appear near genius, and at other times, way off base. You are often to be found among the theoretical and radical thinkers, able to prove nearly anything on paper with diagrams to show how it should work. Whether it really will or not in real life may be another thing. Your intellectual powers are strong, but you're often less than realistic. You have a certain zeal that makes it hard for you to remain still and listen to what others have to say, and you can be dominating in your approach to group endeavours. Underneath, you have a somewhat brooding personality that is forever probing, turning over stones and delving for ideas with which you can either feel affinity or enmity. In business you are likely to be successful and valuable to your employer because you do possess powerful leadership qualities. In this environment you seem to become more objective and less emotional. Nonetheless, learning to restrain the natural tendencies of this configuration will make life and relationships much easier.”

6.7 - Sun in Virgo and Moon in Libra


Seal 6.7
The Moon is in Libra from 18:25 GMT, 30 August 2011 to 18:46, 1 September 2011. This is the combination 6.7, which is a blend of mutable Earth and cardinal Air. The pattern Sun in Virgo and Moon in Libra (6.7) mixes Virgo’s efficiency, purification, selection and service with Libra’s balance, gentleness, harmony and diplomacy.

This binary bestows objectivity, impartiality and equilibrium. It allows the capacity to invest huge amounts of energy in order to create pragmatic reconciliation and unity in relationships and between polarities. In this context 6.7 can be very neutral, impersonal and detached, to the extent that partners may disappear from sight once reconciliation has occurred. 6.7’s loving passion is inspired by, and promotes, connections based on service, healing and work (for example, managing a healing centre with a partner) or services based on relationships (for example, running a matrimonial agency).

This is part of some guidance I received about 6.7:

“Work relentlessly and keep cleaning. This is your work. Clean, yet do not get concerned about what you are cleaning, what you let go. Darkness serves a sacred task and can only be directed towards your Guide. Continue to do this cleaning work and be constant. It is not your task to deal with darkness. Darkness is dealt with by your Guide. All you need to do is to invite your Guide to do so. This is essential and it is your responsibility to call your Guide, whenever there is darkness. You uncover the darkness, yet you do not deal with it. The Guide does so, yet you need to call the Guide. The Guide deals with darkness. You deal with light, this is your task.”
 


The combination 6.7 also brings together two different models of relationship connected with the Venus and the Moon-Ceres approach. 


In the astrological pantheon Venus is traditionally related with the sensual (Taurus) and aesthetic or harmonious (Libra) way of relating. Here Venus sponsors the attraction and sexuality necessary for procreation, yet it does not deal with the end result of pregnancy and mothering, which are functions pertaining to the domain of the Moon and Ceres.

Venus is the bona fide horny bit[1] employed by the Moon and Ceres in order to pursuit their tasks.

6.6 - Sun in Virgo and Moon in Virgo (New Moon in Virgo)


Glyph for New Moon in Virgo
New Moon in Virgo: From 18.13 GMT, 29 August 2011 to 18.25 GMT, 30 August 2011 both the Sun and the Moon are in Virgo. This is the time when the two luminaries are conjunct - i.e. when from Earth the Sun and Moon appear to be in the same part of the sky - which will be precisely at 3:04 GMT on Monday 29 August 2011 in 5° Virgo 27’.

With this New Moon, the previous cycle started in Leo on 30 July 2011 ends and the lunar cycle based on Virgo begins. Each lunar cycle starts with the New Moon, reaches its climax with the Full Moon and ends with the next New Moon.

The sign where the Moon is located at the initial New Moon determines the energy and Intent of the entire cycle. Hence, with this New Moon in Virgo, the whole lunar cycle may be characterised by Virgo topics such as efficiency, healing, pragmatism, purification, selection, service, etc.

The previous New Moon set in motion a cycle based on Leo’s traditional associations with the heart and solar plexus. Here the questions were: “What allows me to open my heart and respond to its calling? What brightens up my eyes with love and passion? What am I called to express, create and display in the drama of life? What can I generously and playfully dispense to the world?” Leo is related to the Sun and reminds us that we are stars, unique beings with a role to play on the stage of existence.

The point where the previous New Moon fell in your natal chart (7° Leo 16’) gave clue on the point where the show started for you. The following Full Moon in Aquarius shed light on the areas where risk could be taken in the above respect. This New Moon in Virgo shifts the attention on the details and the pragmatic implications aimed at supporting the previous developments.

The degree of the New Moon, or Lunation point, indicates an area of life that will operate as Intent and driving force during the next cycle. In this New Moon it is 5° Virgo 27’. Astrologically this position is first identified in the natal chart by noticing in which house of your chart is located and if there are planets nearby. The next step involves establishing a direct rapport with the Lunation Point by positioning in the corresponding Sector, staying there for at least five minutes and opening up to what comes to your mind, emotions and body, taking note of whatever calls attention, no matter how trivial or distracting.

6.5 - Sun in Virgo and Moon in Leo


Glyph for 6.5
6.5: This binary mixes Virgo’s efficiency, purification, selection and service with Leo’s vitality, creativity and leadership. Those who align with this combination receive the capacity of operating as meticulous workers or devoted servants, while at the same time functioning as stars or leaders, either in the sheer limelight or slightly in the background. They cherish grandiose schemes in their hearts, yet holding the determination to work painstakingly in order to attain them. Their attitude to work is in the main playful, radiant and creative, emanating huge power and purity, making them a great source of attraction and inspiration. 

This binary comes right before the New Moon in Virgo (6.6), celebrating the climax of assimilation and release that precedes the upcoming lunation. Hence, this combination involves an attentive activity of discrimination between what is valuable and what is not valuable according to one’s pragmatic intent.

This is a crucial time aimed at making sure that all the residues and resources of the previous cycle are completely dealt with so as to sustain the imminent Virgo lunation. The way of carrying out this task is provided by the interaction of Virgo and Leo, which is physically reflected in the relation between intestine and heart.

With 6.5 it is helpful to let Leo play a significant role in the process by making the work light-hearted, creative, pleasant, entertaining or, if necessary, even dramatic and ritualistic. This makes it an ideal time for celebrating a Basic Ritual of the Sacred Cone.

 Handorian States Reference:
State of Harte Realm of Hardo – 5.2:


This metropolitan nation and its homonymous hero are celebrated for their mind-blowing building capacities. The whole Hartemian capital district of Hartem City and the Handorian Quoin were designed and erected primarily by Hardo folks. These colossal structures constitute a climax in whatever can be humanly conceived in terms of manifestation.

I invite you to liberate your fantasy and imagine the most outstanding and majestic building environment you can envisage. Firmly picture it in your mind, find a way to give it a shape that you can remember. Allow it to be a centre of generous unconditional power and love. Let it be a living reality in your life, as it is for me and the Hardo folks. Handor is not a personal invention. It is the apex of all human highest desires and passions. It is what truly animates every single aspect of daily life. It is irrelevant the way you call it. It is crucial the way you experience it.
