CRISIS LUNATIONS 2016: 

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.

I first noticed this lunation in the early 1970s when my grandfather was in a nursing home. I saw that there were certain lunations in which the patients, called the Walkers, would pace more than usual. At that time, all I had was the Farmers Almanac to determine what was going on with the Moon. At first, I only used the Full Moon. Many years later, I saw that another astrologer, Richard Nolle, used the Perigee New Moon...and he is absolutely correct. These work the same.

CRISIS LUNATIONS 2016:

FULL MOON:  September 16 (Lunar Eclipse), October 16, November 14

PERSONAL EXPERIENCES:  Full Moon: The Full Moon of July 3 2012 was 2 days away from perigee.  It seemed like the worst Crises Lunation to me with the horrible storm, loss of power and the loss of my beautiful Yard Tractor when a huge tree fell on it, crushing all but the headlights.

Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse:  On April 25 2013, the Perigee Moon occurred at the time of the lunar eclipse.  This has been a terrible time with fires, explosions and political crises.  Around May 25, another eclipse, bridges collapsed and earthquakes brought destruction.  Personally, I have had health issues around these eclipses and mechanical problems – a DVD got stuck in my TV with a DVD combo and then a CD got stuck in my car CD player (at least, the car is still on warranty).

Full Moon:  I have been experiencing endocrine-related health issues since last November (2012).  After finding a wonderful doctor and feeling much improved, the July 20 2013 Full Moon brought a big-time relapse for reasons I do not understand.  It could have been stress-related - the impending county fair, a friend visiting, and NCGR conference – but I improved by August 13.

Full Moon:  The Full Moon Crises Lunation of August 21 2013 was the one that hit me with a vengeance.  I am a very cautious driver and, on the 20^th, despite wonderful transits and progressions in my chart for this period, I had a very bad accident pulling out of the visitors’ center in Wildwood New Jersey .  I was so cautious pulling out because the road visibility was poor.  A truck filled with young people, who were obviously speeding, hit my car.  If the good aspects helped, the worse did not happen.  We were fine, no damage to the truck (the driver claimed I did all kinds of damage but I clued the insurance company of what he was trying to pull and I had photos to prove my point), and the kind folks at the visitors’ center came out and helped tie the bumper back onto the car so that I could continue my trip.  Everyone was so kind there.  I learned on this trip that any visitors’ center can arrange discount rooms. 

            For the CFM of June 2014, my small female cat developed sinusitis.  At first, the vet did not diagnose it properly so the medication I was giving her did not work.  Finally, I just took the cat to stay over with the vet until he could observe her properly.  This was a very stressful time when the cat was in crisis!

The October 8 2014 Crisis Lunation hit people closest to me – my partner had a second eye stroke from high blood pressure.  We are hoping that his sight will return in early 2015 but he can no longer work – this is a big crisis! 

            One of my best friends hired a group to work on her house – they did nothing correctly and it was a disaster!  And, because they did not speak much English, she could not tell them what she wanted. 

The Crises New Moon of February 18 2015 was horrible and long lasting.  What I thought was a sinus infection turned out to be a tooth issue and did not resolve easily or quickly.  Enough said about this! 

Just before the Crises Full Moon of August 29, 2015, I was served papers stating that I was being sued.  I was traumatized.  As I read the papers, the lawsuit was regarding a minor accident I had at the Crises Full Moon on August 21 2013 (see above).  The only damage was to my car but the lawsuit states that he has suffered permanent disability and he will never be able to work again.  A good friend, with a Stellium in Virgo in the 12^th (she should have been a detective), researched Adam V. Walker on the internet.  The paper said that he “resides in Delmont NJ .”  Delmont is the location of the state prison.  He has been in jail for a year, filed the papers while in jail and now he needs money when he was up for parole on August 18 (papers filed on August 12).  Yes, he will probably never be able to work with his criminal record.  I was sent a list of New Jersey lawyers, thinking I would try to buy him off as opposed to calling my insurance company.  It is being handled by their fraud department and, if they simply call the jail warden, he may be heading back to jail to finish his sentence.

UPDATE:  Adam is still looking for money.  At the June CNM, I traveled to New Jersey to give my deposition.

I thought that the August 29 Crises Lunation was bad but October 27 2015 is as bad as it can get.  If I listed all of the crises and things that have gone wrong, you would be crying too.  This set off my trip in which I had no flexibility for any mishap.  On future trips, I will remember that NOTHING BAD has ever happened to me.   Guardian Angels are always with me – just go with the flow.

NEW – The Crises New Moon on March 8 was a solar eclipse.  During this time, my oldest cat and only female became very ill.  She had lost so much weight and, despite heroic efforts by my Vet, she passed away in my arms in the bed covered with an electric blanket. 

            Even worse, there was the crises in Brussels and other parts of the world with terrorists killing many people. 

NEW – The Crises Lunation of August 2013 keeps coming back like a bad penny.  Around the April 2016 CNM, not only did I have car problems due to a bad recall repair, I received a notice to appear in New Jersey again for a deposition on the last CNM in June.  See the Adam Walker link above.

GOOD DATES/PERIODS for SEPTEMBER – All times are EDT

September 2:  The Moon is in the sign of Virgo and from 1pm to 6 pm EDT Mercury R will conjunct Jupiter and the Moon will cross MercuryR-Jupiter.  This is an excellent date for the positive Mercury Retrograde activities – to review, re-negotiate – that are mental in nature.  Because these aspects occur at 28 degrees Virgo, it is a time to draw a matter to a successful conclusion, to submit a final draft and to finalize some agreement that has been re-negotiated.  Any final aspect with Jupiter favors publications but, with Mercury R, a 2^nd try after revisions is best.

September 5-7:  The Moon is in the sig of Scorpio and it only makes favorable transits, culminating with a sextile to Jupiter at 29 degrees at 8:44pm EDT on the 7th.  Activities commenced at this time will reach a successful conclusion with the sextile to Jupiter.  Any final aspect with Jupiter favors publications but, with Mercury R, a 2^nd try after revisions.

NOTE:  I have chosen to commence my Medical Astrology course on the 6^th.  I have started a course with Mercury R twice – the first time, there was a power outage twice so we could not meet; the second time went without a hitch.  Being flexible is important.

September 13-early 14:  The Moon is in the sign of Aquarius and it forms a series of favorable aspects from September 13 at 6pm EDT to September 14 until 11:30am EDT.

The Moon trines Venus in Libra and sextiles Mars in Sagittarius and Uranus in Aries R.  This is an excellent time for working cooperatively with others, especially on a progressive and innovative project.  

September 19-20:  The Moon is in the sign of Taurus and it only makes favorable aspects.  Plus, the Moon is exalted in Taurus, making this a highly propitious day.  The Moon actually forms a Grand Earth Trine with Pluto in Capricorn and Mercury R-Sun in Virgo.  The last aspect is a trine to the Sun, denoting support from one in authority and a successful outcome in practical affairs and activities. 
 
September 25-26:  The Moon is in the sign of Leo and, while there will be some changes in direction, the outcome can be favorable.  From September 25 at 3pm EDT through September 26, the Moon only makes favorable aspects.  The Moon actually forms a Grand Fire trine with Saturn in Sagittarius and Uranus in Aries.  This favors progressive, innovative ideas and projects.  Pluto turns Direct so there will be a shift from internal power to external power.  Mars moves into its exaltation sign of Capricorn so someone will leave for something much better or a much better position.
 
September 28 after 4pm EDT:  The Moon is in the sign of Virgo and it makes strong aspects to Pluto, now Direct, and parallel and conjunct Mercury, now Direct.  This is an excellent period for research and intense mental activity and decision making. 

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 on that day.
