New Moon @ 10° Sagittarius 12′

Here is the chart for this full Moon. The Sun-Moon opposition occurs at 2:04 AM on June 1st, Greenwich Mean Daylight Time. It occurs 4 hours earlier in New York. Note that at the full Moon the Part of Fortune is on the Descendant. This suggests that the new Moon is a personal point, because the Part of Fortune is on the Ascendant; and the full Moon is a relationship point--the Descendant being synonymous with the cusp of the 7th house.

About this full Moon I offer the following articles:

  • Astrology in May-June 2007 - The Blue Full Moon in Gemini-Sagittarius by Robert Wilkinson

    The coming 11 Gemini-Sagittarius Blue Full Moon occurs at 6:04 pm 31 May 2007, early morning June 1 east of the Madeiras. The Solar degree is one of "new vistas of concrete, conscious development," and the Moon is one of "physical enlightenment" and "activity dominated by fate." The Moon is in the Grand Fire Trine quintile Neptune, with inspiration fed by the Sun in Gemini tredecile Neptune. This will bring powerful manifestations around 23 Leo, which no doubt will be crystalized over the next few weeks by Saturn. Be resolute and patient as you demonstrate your training while the Grand Irrationality swirls around us...

  • About the Grand Irrationality (discussed in the previous article) author Wilkinson says:

    Aquarius Papers - Global Astrology: The Week of May 28-June 4, 2007 - Grand Irrationality in Full Swing, Mercury enters Cancer, Blue Full Moon in the Americas while Mars enters the Grand Fire Trine

    This week begins under the beams of the 26 Taurus May 16 New Moon, but takes a big turn on May 31 at the Full Moon falling at 11 Sagittarius-Gemini. Trust your body wisdom and get it in gear, since the Fire trine can give wings to what we've been working toward since March. The other big news is that Venus and Mars are in the Cancer and Aries zones of the Grand Irrationality, showing this time is one of making major decisions about where we're going and who we're going with...

  • The following is included for its fire: Full Moon in Sagittarius: The Last Word

    For too long, the voice of "we, the people" in media, in politics, and in public discourse - has been shrill, closed-minded, and downright mean. It' only since Jupiter entered Sagittarius last November, for the first time since Pluto has occupied that sign, that we have begun to reclaim the positive power of our collective voice. Jupiter has opened the window and reintroduced light into our Pluto in Sagittarius dungeon, beginning to clear the fouled air while Pluto prepares to move into Capricorn in January�

Personally, my attention was drawn to two things in this chart:

  • Midpoint of Sun/Jupiter (12 Pisces 52) conjunct Moon's North Node (11 Pisces 40).
    1. About the Sun/Jupiter midpoint in politics or business (Pluto elevated or in 10th house):

      Thesis: The reputation of the nation in the eyes of the rest of the world and the personal renown and acceptance of its leaders; the growth of the national character and reputation; the country's ability to lead others.

      Anti: A religious or philosophical system which ties the effective leadership of the country to a predetermined course of action; the executive of the nation battling with the legal and justice parts of the government.

      (Michael Munkasey, Midpoints: Unleashing the Power of the Planets; ACS Publications, 1991)

    2. About the North Node conjunct the midpoint:

      Meeting and influencing other people who can be central to assisting with your successes in life; more political awareness in pursuing your efforts; encountering others who provide the talent and resources you need now.

  • Mercury in Cancer mirroring (contra-antiscion) Pluto in Sagittarius -- using midpoints again:

    1. Mercury/Pluto (interpreted as an opposition):

      You are very incisive and aggressive with your opinions. You have a tendency towards fanaticism and often want to impose your ideas on others, sometimes in a subtle manner and sometimes more imperatively. You will find yourself attracted by the occult and other mysteries but it is recommended that you avoid those subjects because they can generate certain fixations or obsessiveness. You must learn to control your impatience and impulsiveness, to think things over before speaking, and to respect the weaknesses of others.

      Alternate interpretation: Never satisfied with the face value of anything, you are always probing beneath the surface for deeper reasons and hidden motives - though you rarely reveal your own. You have a very suspicious, even paranoid, side. You mind is penetrating and deep and you have an aptitude for research, investigative reporting, or private investigation. You are keenly interested in the deeper aspects of the human psyche, with a sort of "x-ray vision" regarding the inner motivations and intentions of others. You are drawn to anything secret, hidden, or mysterious, and may pursue esoteric or occult studies. You are also a forceful and convincing speaker or writer, with the ability to influence peoples' thinking by the sheer power of your conviction. (Cafe Astrology)

    2. Moon influence (ruler of Cancer)

      Diminished capacity for enjoying sex with one partner; mood swings when you can not obtain you way with others; sensitivity to the sexual and intellectual need of others; obsessive needs for privacy or power. (Munkasey)

    3. Jupiter influence (ruler of Sagittarius)

      Need to control publishing sources and the presentation of material and information to the public; increased public relations or advertising expertise; a bias about what information you release to others. (Munkasey)

In closing here is a reference describing antiscion/contra-antiscion:
The Classical Basis of Antiscia and Contra-antiscia by Deborah Houlding. This is a well-researched article, clearly written.
