May 20th Artemis Diana shares the celestial state with Old Sol as a Solar Eclipse occurs during the new or, as it is often called, the Dark Moon. This is the point when not even a sliver of the moon can be seen as it starts its monthly course. During the Dark Moon (truly the dark side of Luna) we are confronted with our own shadow sides, facing truths that we have either ignored or tried to hide from.
The Dark Moon brings out the inner nature of things, deceit, deception, secrets, envy, vengeance and those hidden feelings (and truths) that we know either consciously or intuitively, but refuses to acknowledge unless forced to by circumstance. This Dark Moon occurs in the Sign of the Twins, Gemini. This astrological sign has particular significance for us since it governs the U.S., much of England, Belgium, part of Egypt and Tripoli (among other locations).
The Solar Eclipse which accompanies the Dark Moon is also in Gemini. Ancient tradition holds that eclipses in air signs often are harbingers of tempests and stormy weather. This could refer to meteorological or human events. Also, since the eclipse occurs during the first third of the month, conflict between religious groups (or philosophies) could rise as well. With the Messenger as the ruling planet of the Twins, communication issues leading to confrontation are highly likely.
This could start in the political arena but spill, rapidly, into the financial realm as well. The dark side of a situation could lead to a revelation or confession that will have an impact in the coming months and, quite possibly years. This situation cautions you that you may hear things that you truly don’t want to hear, but need to know anyway.
This leads to the third significant event involving the Moon in this thirty day cycle: the full Lunar eclipse on June 4th. On that particular date, and those immediately surrounding it, could mark a dramatic shift in the world as we know it on several levels. Eclipses in fire signs such as this one in Sagittarius, often mark the beginning of a period of conflict, turmoil and strife, the falling of leaders (either through scandal or otherwise), and damage to property and riches.
The Moon’s impact on weather and the oceans should not be discounted either. With Neptune, the Sea King, also going retrograde during this eclipse, seismic, meteorological or volcanic activity may come within that week as an unwelcome yet overwhelming visitor whose impact will leave many stunned by it suddenness and totality.
Given the other astrological events that are going to take place during this time, the profound effect of this lunar eclipse could be felt throughout the summer. Eclipses often denote endings, and the one on June 4th will mark an ending of something major: political and financial seem the most likely arenas for this to unfold, although a long-held belief could also come crashing down at this time. This will truly be a time to face the conflict between what we know and what we need to learn.
It must be noted that the focus on the profound effects of the Orb of Diana (our Moon) and the astrological events which are on the horizon, this is not something that occurs in a vacuum. Rather, Luna’s role in the cosmic dance will be just one (albeit an important one) of several planetary players whose courses are going to shake and reshape our world. The astrologers and psychics alike are quite focused on the near future and the power of a Dark Moon.
