The next couple of days.
This comes from a friend of mine.

Sept 2006 is a stunning month of incredible opportunity for growth and gaining new perspective. It is a month holding a lunar and solar eclipse along with the fall equinox. The momentum that has been harnessed from the past eight months is unstoppable - we are bridging that canyon of fear held within the collective consciousness like never before...." http://shala.lightworker.com/

Both Eclipses this month (Sept 7 and Sept 22) have this meaning: loss or separation, finishing something and feeling sad at its completion. Also -- head's up: It can also be about physical injury, especially through overstraining yourself. This is not a time to engage in strenuous physical activities. www.astrocycles.com

The September 7th Eclipse in PISCES this week has the following meaning: "opening to creative inspiration, higher forces, dreams and ideals." This week and for the next few weeks, pay attention to what the Universe will be flowing to you. Listen to your intution and deep inner connection to your Higher Power. This connection will bring you clues as to the creative vitality of the new world that lies in front of you. "Now is the time to relax and go with the flow, leaving behind any urges to resist or push forward. Doing so will open you up to the potential of one creative inspiration followed by another. Used negatively, you don't have enough energy to meditate, but sleep instead, missing the understanding." www.astrocycles.com

Below I have provided some info on:
How to work with Full Moon Energies
How to work with Eclipse Energies
The Septemer 7th Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Pisces

It's alotta information, but there's alotta goin' on... so here's a brief summary in case you don't have time to read it:
This is a time for deep rooted issues -- we have no choice but to work with all core issues now.... Take a chill pill as emotions intensify, and trust the process.... Have a great week.


HOW TO WORK WITH FULL MOON ENERGY: The symbolic seed flowers! This is the culmination of the waxing cycle and the beginning of the waning cycle. The Sun and Moon are farthest apart and form a direct opposition.

In general, a Full Moon pops things for better or worse. It acts as an in your face mirror that reveals how well you've done with your New Moon "seed intentions". If you've released blockages and maintained a mostly positive attitude during the waxing period, the Full Moon brings fulfillment, illumination or revelation.

If you haven't nurtured your vision or have been harboring a negative attitude, the Full Moon can be expected to bring about a tug of war that can be a physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual conflict. http://www.moonsurfing.com/fm-ovr.html

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

HOW TO WORK WITH FULL MOON ENERGY (Full Moon - 180 -225 degrees ahead of sun): The full moon is the pinnacle, the climactic point. Now we get answers. You'll see a lot of extremes now. The way you interpret those has a lot to do with your inner landscape -- you reflect what's going on around you.
With such a polarity, projection runs rampant. If you go outside and see people acting like lunatics, that's your projection. If everyone looks beautiful, that's also your interpretation. What you perceive depends on how you're feeling.

The gravitational pull of both sun and moon, with the earth in middle, sets up these extremes. The trick here is to find balance. If we're out of balance, we'll go one way or the other; we'll either be blinded by the light, or we won't even see it. The moon's magnetic pull makes this a very powerful time. Whatever Sun Sign the full moon is in has a strong effect on our energies. That effect will play out according to each person's individual chart.

A lot tends to happen around the full moon: more people end up in emergency rooms, the police scanners go wild. But it's also a time for romance. The play of light over the water, the moon hanging in the branches of trees, the huge orb rising over a cityscape -- all these put us more in touch with our creature sense. Time to howl at the moon. The full moon is also associated with fertilization and ovulation. http://goddess.astrology.com/moon/phases.html?nlcid=at|08-07-2006

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOW TO WORK WITH ECLIPSE ENERGY - Eclipses have been powerful mysteries since ancient times. We average four eclipses during a year. Two of those are solar and they coincide with the New Moon. Two are lunar, when the Earth is directly between the Sun and the Moon and its shadow obscures the Moon. The eclipses work together -- two weeks pass between a solar and a lunar eclipse and they occur about six months apart.

During an eclipse of the Moon, some tribes of the Orinoco used to bury lighted brands in the ground; because, said they, if the Moon were to be extinguished, all fire on earth would be extinguished with her, except such as was hidden from her sight. --Sir James George Frazer, The Golden Bough

Eclipses affect world events. Princess Diana, who shares the name of the Moon goddess, is a contemporary feminine mythic figure. Major events happened in her life during eclipses -- her marriage, the birth of one of her children (William), her divorce, and her death.

We are affected on a global level by eclipses...Strangely, few people are born during eclipses. But the date of an eclipse that precedes your birth can be significant throughout your life -- you may even notice an annual influence. It's called a pre-natal eclipse and it tends to portend a subtle, not a major event. These may be external events or reflective internal ones, like decisions that signal life changes to follow. http://goddess.astrology.com/moon/phaseoverview.html?nlcid=astMHLaug03|c

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOW TO WORK WITH ECLIPSE ENERGY - Each year we have two Lunar eclipses, and two Solar eclipses. An eclipse has long lasting effects, and shuts down some aspect of the life so that other parts can flourish in the future.

A Solar eclipse shuts down the light in the house in which it falls, whereas a Lunar eclipse shuts down the form of the house in which it falls.

Examine astrological information about an Eclipse in light of events that have transpired in your lives since the time of the Eclipse, especially since the Solar eclipse effect is still full on for some years to come. www.aquariuspapers.com

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SEPTEMBER 7, 2006 - FULL MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE IN PISCES - This is a time for deep rooted issues – we may previously have been able to just briefly touch on some of our core issues, and then carry on until we felt ready to deal with these issues, but with the numerous accelerated planetary activities at this time, and the speeding up of the vibrational energy on the Earth plane into Solar Christ Consciousness, we have no choice but to work with all core issues, and bring a new balance to our Service work – and of course we always have a choice as to how we process and integrate through the emotional body primarily – this process can be done with humor and grace or through the negative aspects to the first ray of will and power through power and control issues. ...


We are being presented with a golden opportunity in this Now to truly step into empowerment through Service in Love. And we are presented with another opportunity through the full moon lunar eclipse on September 7th to truly release all that is holding us back from being these creative, precious and wonderful Master Beings, and take the Light into all areas of our own shadows, and through this work, release these old patterns for all humanity, within the Cosmic Law of Free Will. The Solar eclipse and equinox on September 22nd, brings a further focus to our Service work, and aligning with our Highest Potential, and following this, many new projects will truly be able to blossom if the foundations have been put into place these last few months. www.pleiadianlight.net

SEPTEMBER 7, 2006 - FULL MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE IN PISCES - Take a Chill Pill as Emotions Intensify. You may feel like you are on emotional overload with this week's interesting and dramatic mixture of planetary events. When planets change direction close to the time of an eclipse, things that have been getting ready to happen, happen.

Full Moons are known for being times when emotions are super strong. When a full Moon is also in a lunar eclipse, emotions get dialed up even more. Add to that the fact that this eclipse takes place in PISCES, the most sensitive sign of the zodiac, and you can count on yourself and others feeling hypersensitive. This touchy full Moon has the dynamic, high-energy players Mars and Uranus involved. Independence and freedom are a big deal for everyone right now, and anyone feeling trampled upon won't be quiet about it.

Help yourself by carving out some alone-time to create emotional tranquility. Watch a beautiful sunset or listen to a beautiful piece of music. The goal here is to put yourself in the state where you feel your connection to everything and to tune into your dreams. Because full Moons, and even lunar eclipses, represent a culmination from what you set in motion during the last new Moon, look back at the new Moon on August 23 for a review. Between now and the next new Moon later this month, which is also a solar eclipse, get a plan together to make changes that will make you feel more comfortable about things. www.astrology.com
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SEPTEMBER 7, 2006 - FULL MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE IN PISCES This eclipse will be a partial lunar eclipse meaning that the Moon passes through a portion of the Earth's shadow (known as the "umbra") blocking the Sun's light and creating a shadow moving across the Moon.

The eclipse will be visible from Africa, Asia, Australia and eastern Europe... but not from North America. The eclipse begins at 11:41 AM PDT/6:41 PM GMT, peaks at 11:51 AM PDT and ends at 1:26 PM PDT.

What's been in the dark comes into the light, giving you an opportunity to finish up a great life lesson in the area indicated by 15° Pisces/Virgo in your chart and graduate to a new level.

This middle degree is a turning point where the pull of your past is equal to the pressing call of your future. Experience your resistance, transform, and re-align with a higher purpose. The insights you receive and the decisions you make now will unfold for the next 3-6 months.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SEPTEMBER 7, 2006 - FULL MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE IN PISCES This radical shift period will continue in even bigger ways thanks to the coming Lunar Eclipse at 15 Pisces-Virgo occurring September 7 at 2:42 pm EDT. As that Eclipse falls near Pluto going stationary direct on September 4 at the same period as Sun opposition Uranus, you can definitely expect some unexpected events to revolutionize your life. For those pitting their little will against the Higher Law or the greater evolutionary trend, there will of course be crashes through abrupt and unexpected explosions. http://www.aquariuspapers.com/astrology/2006/08/the_edge_of_maj.html#more


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SEPTEMBER 7, 2006 - FULL MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE IN PISCES at 2:42 PM EDT - This Lunar Eclipse highlights immense diversification in perception! The Moon in dreamy Pisces cannot reflect the beams of the Sun in practical and analytical Virgo. It would seem that inner vision may be the only area of accord! This polarity point can intensify our desire to overindulge in food, drink and fantasy. It is also a magnifier of memories along with the emotional joys and sorrows of both childhood and early self-definition. A word of caution! Do not drive even short distances if your vision is occluded. This includes, fog, rain, intense construction areas or if you have ingested or drank anything that can effect your reflexes. http://www.aphrodette.com/

SEPTEMBER 7, 2006 - FULL MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE IN PISCES - Welcome to the second and last season of eclipses for 2006. This week's Full Moon (partial Lunar) eclipse is brought to you by the sign of PISCES, ruler of poetry, the sea, enlightenment … and confusion.

For all of us, eclipses represent a time when we have to "Let go, and let God" – or if you're not into 'God', try "Letting go and letting it flow"…

If you are clinging to a person, idea or situation which you know in your heart has run its course, no matter what your sign, the eclipse might just release your grip for you.

The planets most influencing this eclipse are Neptune and Uranus, suggesting times of radical change, sudden clarity and unexpected realisations akin to `having the wool pulled from your eyes'. Sudden spiritual insights are not out of the question for those on a cosmic quest.

Since `bring out yer dead' Pluto is also affecting this eclipse, it's a time to detox, get rid of the bad stuff, excrete the dross, put your emotional toxins in the great insinkerator in the sky and generally allow for the possibility of a rebirth.

Eclipses were regarded in ye olde days are portents of doom, largely because the rulers of the day used them to keep the rabble under control, by predicting where and when the skies would darken. And Lo! They did darken! And everyone freaked out!

Today we know better than to be scared of eclipses. They remain, however, a force to be reckoned with, especially if you are not allowing life to just unfold but are insisting on `my way or the highway'.

Giving up control is a major theme of this week's eclipse. Where in your life are you hanging on for grim death or trying to run someone else's life? Positively, this eclipse is likely to herald a rush of new opportunities for many, even if the initial changes seem daunting. Trust the process.

1. I thought I'd kick this up since it has neat advice for 11-22
Sept 11th – 22nd opens an eleven day window for powerful spiritual turning points. During this time the depth of the full moon experience will accelerate our re-wiring, amping up our nervous system so that we can accommodate the higher “voltage” energy that is now upon the planet and will increase over the coming months. During this time of grace or dispensation hold deeply the feeling of Gratitude. Say out loud daily all the things you are grateful for and especially the things that may be a challenge. A spiritual turning point is a unique experience and different for each individual – it is a gift and whatever it is for you – it has been earned – there is no turning back.

2. Glad you kicked.
Even non-metaphysical people are commenting to me about this week. Crazy making! I am about ready to explode, so now I'll re-read this and hopefully ground and center.

6. If the 22nd's eclipse is anything like the 7th's ...
:scared: Whoa. Things just went all to pieces for me arounf the 5th; culminating in a verbal cage-match of sorts on the 8th (full moon, too!) and leading to pretty steady sadness/mailaise/spiritual confusion in the 2 weeks since.

I certainly hope that the eclipse on the 22nd will smooth over some of the rifts caused by the 7th, or at least end the uproarious (is that a word?) cycle.

7. HC .. we've talked about this
I have not been able to get out of my slump either. I cannot wait for the New Moon. I really think it will change tides. But I'm tired of holding my breath.
