Quite an interesting 'pre-eclipse' day is in store.

Today The Moon in Sagittarius sextiles Jupiter and is void from 02:43 GMT.

She enters Capricorn 04:54 GMT joining the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Pluto and the lunar node there.

Venus sextiles Uranus 09:48 GMT

Saturn turns retrograde 14:20 GMT at 5 degrees Libra.

The Moon is conjunct Mercury 16:35 GMT at 6 degrees Capricorn.

Expect the unexpected.

Thursday January 14th 2010

The unexpected turned out to be a terrible earthquake in Haiti.

Haiti's President Rene Preval says thousands of people are feared

dead following the huge earthquake

On Friday during the Solar Eclipse, at the moment of central eclipse,

Jupiter and Neptune straddle the island at lower culmination. In the Haiti independence astrological chart (Jan 01 1804) Pluto is conjunct natal Mars right now. The lunar eclipse on Dec 31st was tightly opposite the natal Sun in the chart.

Internet giant Google says it may end operations in China after hackers targeted Chinese human rights activists' e-mail accounts.

Turkey is threatening to withdraw its ambassador from Israel in an escalating row between the once close partners.

On this day before a solar eclipse the ancient Moon dissolves in Capricorn.

Friday January 15th 2010

The US is sending up to 3,500 troops and 2,200 marines to Haiti to help survivors of the devastating earthquake.

Future 'astrological historians' will connect the 2010 Haiti earthquake with today's eclipse.

At the moment of central eclipse Jupiter and Neptune straddle the IC of the island.

The Earthquake occurred some 57 hours before this point of central eclipse.

Very long Annular Solar Eclipse (7m 6s)

at 25 degrees Capricorn,

Annular Solar Eclipse of January 15

The first solar eclipse of 2010 occurs at the Moon's ascending node in western Sagittarius (tropical Capricorn). An annular eclipse will be visible from a 300-km-wide track that traverses central Africa, the Indian Ocean and eastern Asia (Espenak and Anderson, 2008). A partial eclipse is seen within the much broader path of the Moon's penumbral shadow, which includes eastern Europe, most of Africa, Asia, and Indonesia (Figure 1).

The annular path begins in westernmost Central African Republic at 05:14 UT. Because the Moon passes through apogee two days later (Jan 17 at 01:41 UT), its large distance from Earth produces an unusually wide path of annularity. Traveling eastward, the shadow quickly sweeps through Uganda, Kenya, and southern Somalia while the central line duration of annularity grows from 7 to 9 minutes.

For the next two hours, the antumbra crosses the Indian Ocean, its course slowly curving from east-southeast to northeast. The instant of greatest eclipse [1] occurs at 07:06:33 UT when the eclipse magnitude [2] will reach 0.9190. At this instant, the duration of annularity is 11 minutes 8 seconds, the path width is 333 kilometers and the Sun is 66° above the flat horizon formed by the open ocean. Such a long annular duration will not be exceeded for over 1000 years (3043 Dec 23).

The central track continues northeast where it finally encounters land in the Maldive Islands (07:26 UT). The capital city Male experiences an annular phase lasting 10 minutes 45 seconds This is the longest duration of any city having an international airport in the eclipse track.

When the antumbra reaches Asia the central line passes directly between the southern tip of India and northern Sri Lanka (07:51 UT). Both regions lie within the path where maximum annularity lasts 10 minutes 15 seconds Quickly sweeping over the Bay of Bengal the shadow reaches Burma where the central line duration is 8 minutes 48 seconds and the Sun's altitude is 34°.

By 08:41 UT, the central line enters China. The shadow crosses the Himalayas through Yunnan and Sichuan provinces Chongqing lies directly on the central line and witnesses a duration of 7 minutes 50 seconds with the Sun 15° above the horizon. Racing through parts of Shaanxi and Hubei provinces, the antumbra's speed increases as the duration decreases. In its final moments, the antumbra travels down the Shandong Peninsula and leaves Earth's surface (08:59 UT).

During the course of its 3 3/4-hour trajectory, the antumbra's track is approximately 12,900 km long that covers 0.87% of Earth's surface area. Fred Espenak.

Today's eclipse directly hits the natal Sun of Kate Moss and Jim Carey, the natal Moon of Jon BonJovi and Judi Dench, the natal Mercury of Tiger Woods, the natal Mars of Ginger Baker and the Nepal national chart, the natal Saturn of Barack Obama and of the Yemen National Chart, the natal Lunar Node of Kim Bassenger and Jack Charlton, the natal Midheaven of Tony Blair and the natal Ascendant of the 1st French republic chart.

At the moment of central eclipse today the Sun and Moon are rising over Turin, central Europe and North West Africa. The Sun and Moon are on the local Midheaven of central India, NE Pakistan and central Russia. Uranus aligns to Baghdad and and Djibouti, Mercury rises at Dublin, Mercury and Pluto are aligned to Seoul, Mars to Havanna, Neptune to New York.

SOLAR SAROS 141.

Today's eclipse is the 23rd eclipse of Saros 141 (Espenak and Meeus, 2006). The family began with a series of 6 partial eclipses starting on 1613 May 19. (Central eclipse 17:44 GTD). The first annular eclipse took place on 1739 Aug 04 and had a maximum duration just under 4 minutes. Subsequent members of Saros 141 were all annular eclipses with increasing durations, the maximum of which was reached on 1955 Dec 14 and lasted 12 minutes 9 seconds. This event was the longest annular eclipse of the entire Second Millennium. The duration of annularity of each succeeding eclipse is now dropping and will dwindle to 1 minute 9 seconds when the last annular eclipse of the series occurs on 2460 Oct 14th. Saros 141 terminates on 2857 Jun 13 after a long string of 22 partial eclipses. Complete details for the 70 eclipses in the series (29 partial and 41 annular) may be found at: eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/SEsaros/SEsaros141.html

Astrologically this Saros seems to have a beneficial quality. The chart of the first eclipse (above) shows the Sun and Moon in an earthy grand trine with Neptune and Chiron, and on the midpoint of Mars and saturn, sextile them both, on the midpoint of Mercury and Pluto, and semi-square the midpoint of Venus and Jupiter, both of whom were trine. Mercury was conjunct Uranus. There was a predominance of planets in earth and mutable signs. No planet was in a fire sign. This all adds up to a potentially healing vibration which works hard to bring people together and to conserve nature.

To illustrate this just look at some of the events that manifested at the times of recent eclipses in the saros.

On Dec14th 1955, the day of the longest eclipse in the Saros,Albania, Austria, Bulgaria, Cambodia, Finland, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Jordan, Laos, Libya, Nepal, Portugal, Romania, Spain, and Sri Lanka joined the United Nations simultaneously, after several years of moratorium.

4 days after the 1973 eclipse the endangered Species Act was passed in the USA.

On the day of the 1937 eclipse the first publication of the world's longest running comic strip, 'The Dandy', was made.

3 days before the 1919 eclipse confirmation of Einstein's' General theory of Relativity' was made.

7 days after the 1992 eclipse Singer Paul Simon was the first major artist to tour South Africa after the end of the cultural boycott.

Let's hope today's eclipse brings forth similar good news stories before too long.

The Eclipse is conjunct Venus and sextile Uranus.

The Moon aligns to Venus within 1.5 degrees 09:03 GMT at 26 degrees Capricorn and is then void.

Mercury turns direct 16:48 GMT at 6 degrees Capricorn.

The Moon enters Aquarius 17:17 GMT.

Saturday January 16th 2010

The spanking new Moon in Aquarius opposes Mars at 23:13 GMT ( 2.25 degree alignment).

These days are holy, sensitive and strange.

Sunday January 17th 2010

Moon apogee (slowest all month) 01:43 GMT

The Moon opposes Neptune 20:23 GMT at 25 degrees Aquarius and is void.

If you are looking for change. Tomorrow sees the start.

Jupiter enters Pisces 02:11 GMT.

http://www.elore.com/Astrology/Pisces/jupiter_in_pisces_art.jpg

As this week proceeds we approach a 'Super Full Moon' (close to Earth) aligned to Venus, Mars and the Sun. We have a very punchy week and Full Moon ahead.

Tuesday January 26th 2010

Yesterday at least 24 bodies of people killed in an Ethiopian Airlines plane crash off Beirut were

pulled from the sea. Addis Ababa-bound Flight ET409 burst into flames and

crashed into the Mediterranean shortly after take-off (2.30am local time) in bad

weather. Officials said it was very unlikely that any of the 90 people on board will be found alive.

A Lebanese minister said "bad weather was apparently the cause of the crash". The take off chart shows a Scorpio ascendant in 'Fixed T-square' formation with the Moon and Neptune.

Ali Hassan al-Majid, Saddam Hussein's notorious cousin known as "Chemical Ali", was hanged for crimes against humanity in Iraq. He was a Sagittarian Sun sign with explosive amounts of fire and earth elements in his chart.

Today the fast moving, accelerating and waxing Moon in Gemini forms a finger of fate with Mars in Leo and Mercury in Capricorn around 06:37 GMT. This is an off key and dangerous moment. The day that ensues is a babble of words.

Mars in turn is almost opposite Venus. Conflicts and tantrums may emerge in the next few days.

Wednesday January 27th 2010

A committee of French MPs is expected to recommend a partial ban on women wearing the full Islamic veil.

The Ethiopian jet that crashed in the sea near Beirut on Monday did not turn as directed to avoid a storm, officials yesterday said. Neptune featured strongly in the take off chart. Confusion, it seems, was the cause of the disaster.

Also yesterday a suicide car bomber killed at least 18 people and injured 80 at an Iraqi forensics centre in Baghdad.

Today the Moon reaches gibbous phase 22 degrees Gemini 00:45 GMT.

The procession to the Super Full Moon is now underway. Lunar tensions are rising.

Venus opposes Mars across 11 degrees Leo Aquarius 05:30 GMT. Conflicts likely.

The Moon in Gemini trines Neptune and is void from 06:33 GMT for seven and a half hours.

The Moon enters Cancer 14:02 GMT and forms a strong Cardinal T-square with Saturn and Pluto from 20:00 to 22:00 GMT. Jupiter hooks in to the picture by midnight GMT.

Lots going on.

Thursday January 28th 2010

Today the burgeoning Moon in Cancer continues to wax to the full. The ethers are heavy with lamentations of the past.

Mercury, the Earth, and the Moon approaching the full are linearly aligned (within 13 minutes of arc) at 12:22 GMT. Be aware of the moment.

The gibbous Moon occults the fixed star Delta Gemini from approximately 20:58 to 21:53 GMT for UK observers. This is the 2nd of 2 occultations of this star for the UK, the 1st was on 21st Oct 2009.

Today is full on.

Friday January 29th 2010

Afghanistan could control security in some of its provinces by the end of 2010, a summit on the country's future yesterday said.

A major hurdle to producing fusion energy using lasers has been swept aside by results in a new report. The controlled fusion of atoms - creating conditions like those in our Sun - has been touted as a potentially revolutionary energy source. However, there have been doubts about the planned use of powerful lasers for fusion energy because the "plasma" they create could interrupt the fusion. The Science article showed that plasma is far less a problem than expected.

Today the Moon trines Uranus and is void of course from 04:49 GMT.

The Moon enters Leo 14:10 GMT. The Full Moon sequence is then underway.

The day and night from this moment roars.

The Sun opposes Mars 19:43 GMT at 10 degrees Leo and around this time the Moon, Jupiter and Pluto form a finger of fate.

This is the night of the Super Full Moon.

The sabbat of Candlemass.

This day starts with the 'almost exactly full' moon conjunct Mars 05:21 GMT

'Super' Full Moon 10 degrees Leo peaks at 06:19 GMT.

The Full Moon is conjunct Mars at 10 degrees Leo and opposite Venus

The Full Moon is at Perigee (closest to the earth) hence the title 'Super Full Moon'.

It will appear visually extra large and extra bright.

Mars is in opposition.

Its gravitational effect is marginally stronger than usual.

Super high tides can be expected, around the coasts of earth, over the next three days.

This is a very potent Full Moon.

Here''s another view of late Jan from Richard Nolle of Astropo Futures: "The first SuperMoon of 2010 falls on January 30 at 10° 15’ Leo, when the full moon aligns with Mars in the sky (and Venus with the Sun). It’s also particularly potent, for a couple of reasons: it’s the closest SuperMoon of the year, and it occurs within just a few hours of the Moon’s northward crossing of the celestial equator. Expect a full litany of SuperMoon phenomena from January 25 through February 2: an increase in coastal flooding due to higher than usual tides, a gaggle of strong storms with high winds and heavy precipitation (triggering inland flooding), and of course an up-tick in moderate to severe seismic activity (including magnitude 5+ earthquakes as well as volcanic eruptions). And then there’s that Venus-Mars connection, which comes at a time when one of the year’s two primary cosmic themes is at full tilt. A SuperMoon full moon emphasizing Mars when the Red Planet is in its close approach to Earth (the Mars Max cycle) speaks of hot blood and hot tempers �" particularly, as far as the January 30 SuperMoon is concerned, for people born under significant Leo-Aquarius factors. Remember: this is true not only for individuals, but for the collective as well; which is why the potential for terrorist attacks and military conflict will be running fairly high in late January and early February."

(Thanks to 'Jerry W' for this link)

This Full moon directly and tightly hits the natal Mercury Pluto conjunction of G.W.Bush, the natal Mars of Bruce Springsteen, the natal Saturn of Carlos Santana, the natal Sun of terry Wogan, the natal Venus of musician Ian Anderson, the natal Lunar Node of Tom Cruise and the natal Uranus of the the Iraq republic chart.

The planetary alignment of the Sun, the Moon, Venus and Mars is focused on New Orleans, Chicago and Calcutta at the moment of Full Moon today. The Moon sets at Rome and Vienna, Jupiter rises at Moscow at that same special moment.

After the moment has passed and the climax reached, the Moon is at perigee 09:01 GMT and opposes Venus 13:50 GMT (< 1 degree).

The day that follows is bathed in the wake of this powerful lunation.

Sunday January 31st 2010

abduction after trying to smuggle 33 youngsters out of quake-hit Haiti.

Elections due in Iraq for March are in disarray after a ban on election candidates

with alleged links to the Baath party is lifted. Pretty uninteresting really.

Today is subtlety different. The Moon is now in Scorpio and around 02:00 GMT the Moon/Jupiter midpoint is conjunct Pluto exploiting the current tight Jupiter Pluto sextile aspect. The Jupiter Pluto cycle, which symbolises the growth and the decline large scale corporate power blocks, is tomorrow exactly at its waxing sextile phase. Today is future directed and power base driven.

The Scorpio Moon wanes and reaches last quarter phase 23:50 GMT 17 degrees Scorpio; a crisis in consciousness sweeps through us all. Mercury applies in sextile to Uranus. Practical invention is also emphasized on this serious minded Friday.

June 5-6, 2010: Things really heat up starting in mid May, as Saturn opposes Jupiter and Uranus. Then, Uranus enters Aries and, a few days later, is joined by the Moon and Jupiter at exactly 0° Aries. Meanwhile, Pluto is at 4°+ Capricorn and Saturn is at 28° Virgo, forming a T-square with the Moon, Jupiter, and Uranus. Mars at 29°+ Leo (conjunct Regulus) opposes Neptune and Chiron. This seems to me to have the potential for a major popular movement (at best) or an armed revolt (at worst). The key is to channel all this energy in constructive ways. Mountain Astrologer
