The Lunar Eclipse on 10 December 2011 is at 18º Gemini 10′. We have the Eclipse (Sun opposite Moon) making a T square to Ceres and the Moon is quincunx Venus. Moon is on Rigel on Orion, the Sun opposition comes from Sabik in Ophuichus famous for it’s “success in evil deeds”. The South Node conjunct the Moon makes it a total Lunar eclipse. In a total Lunar eclipse the earth gets in-between the Sun and the Moon and totally blots out the full Moon, beforehand the Moon will turn a blood red. We have our body interrupting the flow of the ego to the emotions. This as a great opportunity for healing. Any physical symptoms that come up at this time are telling us blatantly what’s up with our minds. The Moon is conjunct the centaur Thereus which emphasizes the Centaurs dilemma of whether to listen to to the beast or the man.
December 2011 Lunar Eclipse Aspects
The closest aspect is the Moon quincunx Venus, “wants everyone to be happy, loving and congenial, but they can be obsessive in their pursuit of fairness and perfection. Because of their perfectionist quirk, these subjects.. get far too upset too easily, which draws them into very un-peaceful fights.” In the next six months we could be reviewing our paradoxical nature, our saying we want a fairer, peaceful and equal society while still coveting luxury items like the latest android phone or ipad.
We have an eclipse T-square. This aspect pattern seeks stability, so it will over overcompensate by leaning even more heavily on the apex planet, in this case is Ceres. What does this mean for the planet?! Over-farming, GM foods, clambering for yet more material goods? Or will we start to value the other side of Ceres, which is a respect for nature and the appreciation of the treasure we have in our families. There are two aspects in the T-square:
Moon square Ceres “They must be careful however that their saving doesn’t turn into a saviour complex, as when this aspect warps, it warps big. The subject can either be the “smothered” or the “smothering” Sun square Ceres is easier; “The dynamism of this combination yields a large selection of successful, hardworking and prolific subjects…. There seems to be a theme of loss, abuse and pain. These people seem to triumph over adversity.”
The feeling from the whole set up seems to be a desperate need to make things right. There is a real reforming spirit from that Moon/Venus which shows a need to create a peaceful Utopia and I think this T-square with Ceres as Mother earth being at the Sun/Moon midpoint mirrors beautifully the actual physical event of a Lunar eclipse.
The Moon is conjunct Asteroid Thereus. Thereus can be a bit too eager to prove how butch he is, just like some women can go completely overboard with mothering (Ceres) or peacemaking (Venus). These extremes of polarity and disconnection are an ongoing human dilemma. The centaurs are yet another expression of the divided soul. As a centaur, Thereus seems to show the widest gap between the two sides, but they are also very clear-cut.
Lunar Eclipse on Fixed Star Rigel
This is generally a really lucky star giving glory, riches, fame and happiness. But with the Moon, Rigel really stinks! “Much worry and disappointment, injuries to life and fortune, sickness, ill health or death to wife or mother.” [2]
BUT… here is the big but. Didn’t we just say right in the beginning, that the Earth/Ceres blots out this malefic influence and stops this Moon being lit up by the Sun? So it’s like the Sun, the ego, is inflaming the situation. Earth/Ceres does her job of mediation, cooling the angry red moon down. Since the Sun is on venomous Sabik we don’t want any of his “Evil deeds” being activate anyway. Ceres brings the much needed balance. Nature corrects herself. The death of the mother could be literal, but most likely it will mean death to bad habits, ingrained family programming, acting on auto-pilot and the sheep mentality that allows us to carry out the Sun’s “Evil deeds” without awareness or question. The Moon rules the public.
“Injuries to fortune”? Read, injures to our technological chattels perhaps? Ceres steps in to break the circuit, the TV transmissions that keep us asleep. The incessant buzz of technology and Wi-Fi is off so our brains can switch ON. Rigel is on the foot, the part that was stung by the Scorpion. Legend has it that Gaia the goddess of the earth sent the Scorpionic punishment because Orion boasted he could exterminate all the creatures on earth. Again we have the theme of nature correcting exaggerated pride and extreme behaviour.
Lunar Eclipse Tarot – Wheel Of Fortune
It is quite strange synchro that I picked this card when the preceding Solar Eclipse November 25 is conjunct Asteroid Fortuna and has a very strong Jupiter influence. I guess that means that the theme of fate continues and with Ceres it is still about “what ye shall sow, so shall you reap”. The Wheel Of Fortune, Jupiter and Orion all talk about the meteoric rise to fame which can very often test our integrity, we must always remember to keep one foot on the ground and remain centred and focused. Otherwise like Orion, a wee Arachnida will come and bring us down a good few pegs.

Well, Carmen, Marina and all, it’s interesting to read this. I think the eclipse came early for me. About 6pm on the 29th November I found a tick lodged in the back of my head near the hairline. My son got it out for me head and all and it had only just dug in, but the next day a gland about an inch away swelled up in my neck. I went to the doctor because it was very sore and I didn’t know if it was related to the tick or not, but yes, he said it would be there for 3 weeks and was a reactive gland from the tick bite, and not to worry about it. I had been clearing a vacant lot to put my mare and foal in and cut away a huge lot of climbing jasmine. There was a point at which i thought there was bound to be ticks in it so I’d better stop only I kept going, didn’t I? I guess the 29th November was in a shadow period of the Mercury retrograde or something? Mine’s in Taurus and I have sun in Gemini at 3 degrees something and Uranus in Gemini at about 16 degrees (today – Saturday – is a Uranus station day along with the eclipse which happens tonight in Australia just before midnight) and my North Node is at 20 degrees Gemini conjunct Capella, so the eclipse at 18 degrees is right in the middle in the 6th House. The sun will oppose all of this and conjunct my South node in the 12th. Perhaps it will calm down my poor little gland. Anyhow, I’m staying inside this weekend. There’s no Lyme Disease in Australia so please don’t scare me by suggesting it.
Take it from someone who was told lyme didn’t exist in her region either and is now dying from late stage lyme disease because by the time it was finally diagnosed, it was TOO LATE for a cure… Please go to another doctor and request to be treated with antibiotics. Lyme makes itself known with inflammation. Doctors are misinformed and given inaccurate information about lyme disease. They think it is rare and doesn’t exist in many regions. Ticks know no borders. They are everywhere! Because my doctors had the false belief lyme didn’t exist in my region, I was misdignosed and left too late to have a successful chance of treatment. Tests are also not accurate. Lyme disease can’t be diagnosed with tests alone because lyme testing is inaccurate and lyme can hide from the immune system so it won’t show antibodies to the tests. Do your research about all of this. Don’t listen to your doctor. I don’t want to see someone else lose their life and or die from this disease. There is huge political controversy surrounding lyme disease. That is why doctors are given the wrong information and why people get misdiagnosed and are left to be extremely sick and die. Doctors can lose their licences for treating people with lyme. Currently because of this problem, nobody can treat lyme in Ontario anymore and people have to go to the States to be treated. I don’t want to see that happen to you. Not trying to scare you. But stay informed. Do your research. Don’t settle for being told it is fine and not to worry about it when there is obvious inflammation from the tick bite. Inflammation only happens when an infection invades the body and the immune system is alerted and on guard to fight it. Trust me. I am extremely sick and have lost my life to late stage lyme disease because of doctors who didn’t listen and believed lyme to be rare and not to exist in my region. I’ve been told it is too late to be cured and that I might die from this. I have brain inflammation, lesions in my brain, a heart arrythmia, seizures, altered states of conciousness and a million other symptoms from lyme destroying every part of my entire body. Now I am also facing a possible diagnosis of cancer due to the lyme supressing my immune system and destroying and changing my cells in my body. Don’t lose your life to this Monster of a disease like I have and so many others have. Save yourself before it is too late! Not trying to scare you. But this is the reality of this disease. Take it from someone who is going through this nightmare herself. Lyme DOES EXIST. IT IS EVERYWHERE. Please go to another doctor and get help before it is too late!
Okay I will, thanks for the info, hope you’re okay

Hi Leone: Here is a link to an article to prove my point! I wish you luck in learning about the truth and reality of lyme disease. Stay informed. Knowledge is power and it will save your life from this devastating and life threatening disease.
Watching the eclipse now,moon almost half obscured. I should be in bed, but I want to see it go red!

tom grier recovered from late stage lyme. 12/8 coast/coast he gave the name of the drug he took available in 14 countries including mexico. anyway ‘living’ contact Tom! he will write you! don’t except death! and depending on your heart/ blood pressure heat treatment works!
everyone else avoid this illness by avoiding areas known to have lyme. here is some advice; the deer tic attaches itself in 3 stages. 1 glue, 2 anethesia,(contains co-infection) 3 burrows it’s head under the skin and starts to feed. It’s looking for a meal. Lyme spirochete are in the ticks stomach so w/ that knowledge proceed to remove w/o disgorging of stomach contents. You want the tick to try and hold on untill it’s off. So don’t use tweazers! We use a finger nail or razor blade scraping from the ticks head back toward the body. keep scraping until it’s off, then dab w/ 92% alochol. If the tic has been attached enough to draw noticable blood, apply a heating pad on high, or hot compresses and see a doctor immediately! remember LYME is worse that most poisonious snakes, untreated will produce slow painful death.
also we noticed that deer tock crawl upwards on the pant leg. bring nail clippers w/ you for walks, tuck light colored pants into white socks so you can pick them off and cut in half. They seek heat and C02. We have ‘murdered’ as many as 30 deer tic on walks, my son goes on safaris!
another thing is make a contract w/ your subconcious that you will always feel/notice when a tick is present. This is like prayer/meditation and works. say; “please god wake me, help me know w/ your devine powers when a tick is on me! I will try todo better in my life, work hard, be kind and stay involved in helping others….
remember love is like the sun behind clouds, always there wanting to warm and bring life to the worlds!
Wow feel for you. As a survivor of cancer I can’t agree more about the need to trust yourself and do the research and get second and third opinions. I saw so many women scared to death who just accepted the diagnosis. I researched “everything” in the their library and listened to many and tried to “get it”. I heard much about the futility the doc’s felt in the not knowing themselves and how they did the recommended procedures out of lack of anything else. Trust, trust, trust yourself too.
Oh oh give enough rope and a person — ya know. I was on disability for awhile and seen lots who are for one reason or another. The empty end of the T-square as I remember was in Virgo. Virgo can be people pleasing hyper or it can be studies to enhance one’s health. I have a T to my 6th, not Virgo but worse. That dratted Scorpio. Anyways, the empty end must be developed whatever it is or is about.
I think there is a tactic to putting off court cases which sometimes works to the charged’s favor. Like kind of like when they can’t go back to correct something on your bill cause it’s too old. lol
That cere’s is the tension mid pt in the T square and is square to moon. Add to that it’s sextile to venus,which Asteroid Goddesses book says can be feeling sexually undesirable, unattractive, imprinting by parent and who comes to mind but Sandra Bullach in the news alot since her and young younger boy friend broke up. This leads to unsatisfactory and painful rejections, food complexes. Almost missed that one. Sitting here with my fridge bone empty. Used to be anorexic like. Born in early may is the Willow Tree. Weeping Willow and tall and thin..
I find this interesting especially since Ceres was in the news recently about “exposing herself”.
You mean Sandra – the bathroom scene.
