CRISIS LUNATIONS 2020:

CRISIS LUNATIONS 2020: No Eclipses this year on a Crises Lunation

NEW MOON: September 17-18, October 16, November 14

Crisis Lunation periods occurs when, at the time that the Moon is New or Full, the Moon is physically very close to the earth. This closeness-lunation parallel will amplify our emotional reactions, bringing matters to a crisis point. This Crisis Moon period usually begins about one week before the New/Full Moon and lasts several days afterward.

I find that you are only affected by one of the Crisis Moon periods, usually one that falls close to a natal planet.

When a crisis arises, my advice is always to "stay calm, relax and make no impulsive decisions for at least a week." The most critical are eclipses. The most potent occurred on April 15, 1995, because it occurred at the time of a Lunar Eclipse. Of course, the event it portended was the Oklahoma City bombing as the Eclipse fell on the ASC/DESC axis over that city. The WTC/Pentagon attack occurred within a wide orb of a Crisis Lunation. The US invaded Iraq on a Crisis Full Moon in March 2003.

I remember one example - a father called about his daughter who had run away from home about 4 days before the CFM. I told him what was occurring and that he should wait for about a week and she would likely return home....and she did. After the effects of the CFM were over, she became rational again. Hormones and a CFM are not a good mix!

During the year, there are generally 4 Crisis New Moons and 4 Crisis Full Moons. There is usually only ONE of these CFMs that hits you -- generally, not all of them ... and you cannot always tell which one it is going to be.

When it hits, you go crazy and your emotions are magnified. But, when the Moon begins to move away from the earth, we calm down. I am a Virgo so a rational explanation is very satisfying for me. If I know that I am feeling this way because of some astrological/astronomical configuration, it makes it seem OK and I feel much better.

Yet, there are times when events occur that are not transient. During a Crises Lunation in 2013, I had an automobile accident and, at another Crises Lunation in 2015, after getting out of jail this man with whom I had the accident tried to sue me for total disability, hoping that I would not show up in New Jersey for the deposition. In January 2019, at the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse Crises Lunation, I received a message that my dad had passed away while I was in Switzerland.

NEW: August 2019 had a Crisis New Moon at the beginning and at the end of the month. This is somewhat like a Blue Moon month. The Blue Moon (see a short article on my website) is a Full Moon at the beginning and end of the month. It is my experience that it is like an entire month of Full Moon crises and tension.

August being bracketed by a Crises New Moon is like a month of crises – at least for me. I have a dental crisis, my sweet cat was very ill, and the non-profit that runs my farm has taken all of the joy out of farming for me. Yes, I have a good lawyer. The positive – I will be free from worrying about the gardens.

The Crises New Moon occurs on my birthday, August 30, 2020. A lunation occurring on or within a day of one’s birthday will trigger a major change within the coming year. This works even if it is not a Crises Lunation.

GOOD DATES/PERIODS for SEPTEMBER 2020 – All times are EDT

AUGUST 31: The Moon is in the sign of Aquarius and there is a brief period from 7pm to Midnight when the Moon makes a sextile to Mars in Aries. This is a period that favors completing projects.

SEPTEMBER 3: The Moon is in the sign of Pisces and there is a brief period from 9am to 10:30am EDT whereby the Moon trines Venus in Cancer. Venus is always strong in a Water sign so this period favors cooperation in relating. It can be a time for special purchases.

SEPTEMBER 7: The Moon is in the sign of Taurus and, after 2:30am EDT, the Moon makes a series of excellent aspects, actually making a Grand Earth Trine that ends with a trine to Pluto-Saturn. This is an excellent time for practical affairs, financial activity and re-organizing for efficiency.

SEPTEMBER 9-10 (not the best day): The Moon is in the sign of Gemini and, after 12pm EDT, the Moon quincunxes Saturn-Pluto and finally sextiles Mars Retrograde. The Quincunx warns you not to get involved in problems that are not your own. Events can happen over which you have no control because they do not directly concern you. The Moon sextiles Mars R at the end of the 10th. This only favors a hesitation that allows you to review an action or how you handle anger. Remember, with Mars R, whoever initiates an aggressive action loses. For more information, see Gemini below.

SEPTEMBER 21: The Moon is in Scorpio until 2pm and it favors Pluto-Saturn-Sun. There is a 150 (Quincunx) aspect to Mars R that warns you not to take an action on a problem that is NOT your own. Do not get involved in another’s dilemma or it becomes your problem – and a problem that you cannot resolve. The ending aspect to the Sun favors support from one in authority – at 29 degrees, it is a time to put a wrap on and finalize an endeavor.

SEPTEMBER 23: The Moon is in the sign of Sagittarius and it only makes a favorable ending aspect from 9am to 1pm EDT. The Moon sextiles Mercury, favoring balanced decisions whereby you see another’s point of view, since Mercury is in Libra. However, the last aspect is a trine to Mars Retrograde. This only favors a hesitation that allows you to review an action or how you handle anger.

SEPTEMBER 30: The Moon is in the sign of Pisces and it makes favorable aspects until 1pm EDT. It sextiles Pluto and Saturn so it favors organizing and simplifying activities. Saturn has just turned Direct so practical affairs are more favorable for the next few months. If you are starting a business, Saturn must be Direct or you will spend a lot of time re-organizing that business before you can get it truly off the ground.

NOTE TO READER: These dates are based upon electional techniques. All of the Moon sign dates apply to everyone. Do not simply read your own Moon sign – read all of the signs for what I say about the specific dates. The Moon sign information will NOT describe the day, only the outcome if you initiate something important on that day.

* ARIES (March 19-April 19): Finances may be favorable this month or a female with resources can benefit you in some way. Do not act in haste with Mars R as your actions or words will come back to haunt you. However, you have some luck – this is a time to make a wish – MAKE THAT WISH NOW!

The Moon is in the sign of Aries on September 4-5. Since it is a Cardinal sign, it is making difficult aspects to all of the planets in Cardinal signs. If you initiate now, your endeavor will be fraught with crises and delays. From 10pm to 12am, the Moon parallels the Sun-Mars and crosses Mars. You can take action now but you will have to fight for what you want.

Index

* TAURUS (April 20-May 20): This is a good month to find fulfillment with friends and family – more personal, intimate gatherings. Finances can be good this month or there is a woman with resources who benefits you in some way. This is a month to work on spiritual goals, something that will manifest in the future. A small group may be involved in this project (say, 3 people).

Index

* GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Women will be important in your life this month – a woman with resources and a woman who can make sharp decisions. Yet, your wish can be granted this month -- so MAKE THAT WISH NOW!

The Moon is in the sign of Gemini on September 9-10 and, while the aspects start out well on the 9th, Mars changes direction causing something to be dropped and this ends with the Moon square the Sun/Neptune opposition. The matter will experience a disappointment, deception or even a betrayal by one in authority. There is an ending aspect with a sextile to Mars R. This indicates that you can take action to reverse any disappointment but you will experience a disappointment or someone not “being there” for you. You need to act on your own and not rely upon others.

Index

* CANCER (June 21-July 22): Everything is about to change this month – the dice have been cast and the changes are already afoot. It is best to save your money and allow it to grow rather than incur unnecessary expenses. Yet, this is not a time for excessive caution. Rather, it is a time to take a risk, to follow your heart and take a leap of faith. GO FOR IT! Just do not spend all of your money!

The Moon is in the sign of Cancer from September 11 to very early on the 13th. While matters may start out well, something will be dropped or change direction. In the end, what is initiated at this time will be fraught with crises, complications delays and an angry, inappropriate reaction. Pick another day!

Index

* LEO (July 23-August 22): Finances will be slow this month but you can benefit from a family or organization with Old Money (money has been in the family or company for a long time). If you find yourself in a negative situation, know that you can always “lift the chains” and walk away. Do not stay in a situation that limits you – walk away.

The Moon is in the sign of Leo from the evening of September 13 to early September 15. While the Moon ends with a parallel to Venus and a trine to Mars R, the Moon makes many 150- degree aspects. Commencing now, there will be challenges with disruptions that have nothing to do with you directly. DO NOT GET INVOLVED – you cannot solve the problems and you can only take the blame when things do not work out. The Ending Trine to Mars R can allow you to take action to remedy any problems that are directly concerned with you.

Index

* VIRGO (August 23-September 22): This is a good month to step back and gain a new perspective on your life and your goals. Learn to look at situations in a very different way. You will feel much better, more connected, if you socialize with small groups. However, by month’s end, you may receive some surprising news.

The Moon is in the sign of Virgo on September 16 and very early on the 17th, when most of the aspects occur. The is a Crises New Moon cycle, warning you not to over-react when a crisis occurs. Do not trust what others may say or promise. New beginnings can start by organizing and planning.

Index

* LIBRA (September 23-October 22): This is a month to exercise caution in finances. Allow your resources to grow rather than spend. Do not act upon flighty promises. You will receive an important message this month. Work with your intuition, possibly at the beach or around water.

The Moon is in Libra on the 18th and very early on the 19th. Matters may start out well on the 18th but the Moon afflicts everything by late afternoon on the 18th EDT. Bad decisions, complications, delays and an angry agreement to separate draws the matter to a stressful conclusion. Pick another date!!

Index

* SCORPIO (October 23-November 21): You have all of the Power, Will and Resources to accomplish your goals. However, DO NOT act in haste with Mars R – whoever initiates an aggressive action will lose. With Mars, your co-ruler, Retrograde, it is a time to meditate or step back and gain a different perspective upon your life, your goals and even your anger issues. Learn to see matters and relationships in a very different way.

Index

* SAGITTARIUS (November 22-December 21): Follow your intuition this month. There is a Spirit Guide working with you to guide you into the next dimension of your life. This does not mean day-dreaming but intuitive focus. By month’s end, you will receive some surprising news – a bit of a shock! This may not be personal but in terms of world events.

Index

* CAPRICORN (December 22-January 19): You may find yourself dealing with officials in authority – they will obey the law, so remember this. Despite Mars R, this is a good month for enjoying yourself, getting some sunshine (remember, people with high levels on Vitamin D are less prone to CV19 or they recover faster) and, by month’s end, you may evolve a new idea for some future project. Mars is Retrograde so you must wait until it turns Direct to take action.

The Moon is in Capricorn on September 24-25 and this is not a good period as the Moon crosses Pluto-Saturn and then squares Mars R-Mercury. Mercury and Mars are opposing each other in Cardinal signs so an endeavor initiated now will be fraught with crises and disputes. Remember, whoever initiates an aggressive action will lose.

Index

* AQUARIUS (January 20-February 17): Do not act in haste this month, especially when Mars is Retrograde. It will come back to haunt you! You feel some indecision this month which causes some stress. It is important to step back, take a trip or do something that allows you to gain a new perspective upon your life and circumstances. You need a new way of looking at your life.

AUGUST 31: The Moon is in the sign of Aquarius and there is a brief period from 7pm to Midnight when the Moon makes a sextile to Mars in Aries. This is a period that favors completing projects.

The Moon is again in the sign of Aquarius on September 26 and 27. The Moon opposes the Sun (problems with someone in authority) and Venus (costly relationships) but ending with the Moon sextile Mars R from 2-3am EDT. This is a very brief period to review the problems that have occurred and make the necessary changes.

Index

* PISCES (February 18-March 19): Your Spirit Guide is bringing important friendships into your life this month. Allow this Guidance to occur – be receptive to the influences coming into your life. With the Retrogrades, this is a good planning time for future travel. You may need to consult one in authority when important decisions need to be made.
