Pluto forms a cardinal grand cross (4 squares and 2 oppositions) with 3 very feminine planets which symbolize our feeling, intuitive nature. Venus in Cancer opposite Pluto demands that we let go of anything that no longer nurtures us and those we love. The asteroid Ceres in Libra, the Great Mother goddess, squares Pluto, taking us down into the underworld where we can find those lost parts of ourselves which we neglected to nurture. And the asteroid Juno in Aries, the Sacred Partner, the fourth leg of the table, asks us to partner up with new and like-minded people.
Our feminine soul "" the living, thinking, feeling spark of life within us - has been controlled and shamed by the patriarchy for thousands of years. So sometimes what we think we want is often not good for us. Our feminine soul has been twisted to patriarchy's demands, and this is a chance to let go of those wounded, deadening patterns once and for all. Both men and women need to re-connect with their healed emotional bodies so that we won't be afraid to open ourselves to change and transformation. It is the Feminine Spirit who brings transformation and re-birth. On this full Moon, open to her and you will open to new life.
And Happy Lammas! The first harvest is in.
Blessed Be,
Cathy Pagano
