Full Moon in Gemini
The Full Moon is at 15:46 GMT on 3 December 2017, with Sun in Sagittarius and Moon in Gemini. It is a supermoon this year since the Moon comes very close to the Earth and its energy can ba largely amplified. Mercury goes retrograde a few hours earlier, and this may affect ordinary communication, while supporting connections with the non-ordinary. The Advent season starts also with this full moon.
This can be an exciting and challenging time, confronting us with the direct implications of our soul’s purpose, which may not necessarily coincide with our conditioning and belief systems, or with whatever we do in order to fit with consensus reality.
Sagittarius is often regarded as the multidimensional gateway between ordinary third-dimensional reality and higher dimensions, the portal to the centre of our galaxy, the access point where beings from other dimensions, star systems and parallel universes slide or incarnate into third-dimensional reality.
A multidimensional gateway is a setting through which multidimensional beings can pass in order to immediately access locations far away in time or space. In previous times this gateway was the axis Capricorn-Cancer, which still formally is. Yet, due to the precession of the equinox, this point has shifted to Sagittarius-Gemini, with the Gate of Capricorn now being located between the constellations Sagittarius and Scorpio. This is acknowledged as the Galactic Centre, where scientists are aware of a mysterious black hole. This is esoterically regarded as the portal to higher dimensions, the birth canal leading to the Lower World, rather than, as it is often advertised, to Heaven.
Sagittarius is considered as the stellar womb from which the current separated reality was conceived and born. Hence, when the Sun transits Sagittarius there is potential for conceiving and giving birth to alternative configurations.
If you wish to browse around and be further confused, there is now ample literature on the topic, yet you may risk missing the Sagittarius darting energy aiming herewith at a precise target. And this target may be what your intention is, right now, what in this moment you choose to create and accept in your mind as the best possible dimension you can conceive for yourself and others, without any limit regarding what gives you joy, peace and any quality you value.
Aim straight at the highest target, get out of the smoke zone of your false limitations, open up to the flames of your heart and use fire arrows to hit the centre of your being.
The Sun is in Sagittarius and the Moon is in Gemini. The Sun and the Moon reach their maximum distance from each other, and yet the Moon receives from the Sun the maximum amount of light. Hence, let’s get down to business… No matter how remote your greatest dream appears to be, today you can start this week with total trust that there is unlimited light for whatever you wish. In these days you can repeatedly aim at your highest targets, letting go of compromises and choosing simply and only the best. The Light supports you with the Full Moon and the Winter Solstice in two weeks.
There is no limit to the Light we can receive, because this Light is us. Its perennial flame burns in our hearts. Do not allow anything or anyone to hide this fire from your sight. Release your fears and the miserable blackmail of this corrupted world, aim straight at your highest target with fire arrows, and hit the centre of your being.
If we find ourselves with a desire that nothing in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that we were made for another world. (C.S.Lewis, born on a full moon in Gemini)

Dimensions
Each natal chart is different, as each person’s life is different … when we are in the circumference of the circle.
In the center, we all unify and become one.
The challenge of life in this three-dimensional reality is to accept this radical difference of perception between circle and center, between horizontal identity and vertical identity.
In third-dimensional reality we experience the circle in a very limited way, which implies a dissociation from other dimensions.
In third-dimensional reality we identify with a present bounded by linear time, with our current age and life events. The past is gone and the future is not there yet.
In an expanded view of the circle, the present is determined by our choice regarding the time we decide to experience. We identify with each time of our lives, past, present and future.
This is the fourth dimension, which implies the possibility of moving through time, whereas in the third dimension you can only move in space.
The fifth dimension is the crucial one because in it we can choose the specific life form and being we identify with. Movement takes place not only in space and time, but in any possible space and time for any possible being. Fifth dimension is pure mental awareness that exercises the power of choice about who and what to be.
The sixth dimension is the one that allows you to dwell in the center, where there is total unity.

Solitude and others
Solitude is the most important experience in your relationship with others.
When you are alone you relate with yourself, which then allows you to relate with others.
If you do not spend time alone to relate with yourself, then you will use others to relate with yourself.
In this way you will keep being alone, even if you are with others.

Pain
What can ease most of the pain with our unpleasant issues is the acknowledgment that they are part of life and that we can be successful only if we manage to put up with them.

You feel bad because
You feel bad because you are probably wasting your life wanting to be perfect, all in one piece, worshiping abstract and unrealistic ideas that make you believe in eternal success, happiness and love.
You feel bad because you cannot manifest these goals and so you take it with yourself, and also with others, making them feel bad too.
In the end everyone feels bad because they don’t accept themselves and they are not accepted by others.
Stop beating yourself up because you are not what you want to be and stop blaming others because they are not what you want them to be.
Accept what you are, with all the apparent contradictions, which are just the various parts in you, the diversity and wealth that exists within each of us, life and death, pleasure and pain.
A better way to employ your time invoves recognizing, accepting and integrating every part of you, from the highest to the lowest, while also recognizing, accepting and integrating it in your relationships with others.
It takes a long time to do this. Maybe it never ends. You will not be perfect, but you will be more and more whole and maybe even a bit quieter and happier.

Venus in Scorpio
Venus enters Scorpio today.
So?
Venus in Scorpio relates with the peak of secrecy and mystery in the realm of relationships, so I do not even think about telling you what it is about.
In addition, everything about Venus in Scorpio is something that causes intense emotions, judgments, condemnations, shame, scandal, envy and all sorts of human madness. So, to what purpose writing about it? Just to be misunderstood, denigrated and defamed again?
Venus in Scorpio represents the part of us who in the sphere of human relations lives underground, absconding, accused of all the evils of the world, the source of all fear. The paradox is that it can also be the most desired part, the most powerful one, the gray eminence weaving the plots of our matrix life till all that was hidden finally emerges to the surface.
Venus in Scorpio confronts us with the ultimate and inevitable relationship: with death, the end, the completion, the encounter with everything we run away from out of fear and shame.
So why not give at least a little look at this Venus in Scorpio? To what causes fear, scandal, horror, anger, but also deep attraction, pure desire, mystery, catharsis and luminous transformation ?
Scorpio in Venus confronts us with our darkest secrets and horrors so that they can be recognized, understood, accepted, and transformed.
How can we change or transform something if we are not able to see and understand it, if we have never had an experience of it?
When we open up to our darkest side, accepting and allowing it to unveil its true nature, then it can flow through the channel of life and be transformed.
And very often it is not our dark side that needs to be transformed. It can continue to be what it is. It is rather our prejudices and what we believe to be our luminous side that needs to be transformed.

No clue
I don’t have any clue about what is right for you, though I may have an idea about what is wrong perhaps with you, which is the fact that you believe that somebody can tell you what is right for you.

Astroshamanism
See: https://www.facebook.com/Astroshamanism
Its present form is the result of research done by Franco Santoro since 1976, and integrates teachings from many traditions and experience gained within the Findhorn Foundation.
The basic intent of this work is to enable individuals and groups to establish connections with multidimensional sources of healing, releasing perceptions based on separation and moving towards harmony.
