The Gemini Lunar Eclipse December 21, 2010: A Transformational Winter Solstice
I found this article and it seems like something to share

:hi:






This Winter Solstice is marked by a total lunar eclipse, with the Moon close to the South Node of the Moon in Cancer while the Sun stands not only with the Capricorn North Node but also Mercury, Pallas and Pluto. These energies will come into play when the Moon is eclipsed, creating new psychological patterns that will help us meet new challenges.

"Lunar eclipses emphasize awareness of personal matters and relationships, now doubly so since this Solstice eclipse deals with releasing old emotional patterns of a Cancerian nature. ". . .total lunar eclipse . . . amplifies our opportunities for transformation. New pathways and options appear as old networks dissolve. During an eclipse, the continual streams of electromagnetic energy from the Sun and Moon are interrupted, weakening the Earth's force fields as well as our own and thus making it easier to shift grids, dimensions and the configuration of our consciousness." Stephanie Austin, The Mountain Astrologer, Dec/Jan 2011

Watch your family dynamics during the holidays. So often, family issues originate in the Mother/Child emotional body and have to do with survival and nurturing issues - how comfortable we are with ourselves and with being "home'. We have to heal our personal wounds so we can go on and deal with the bigger survival issues that face our world.

This Solstice is important too because in 2011 the dance between Uranus (revolution) and Pluto (death & rebirth/evolution) intensifies, eventually forming seven exact squares between 2012 and 2015; these energies will continue to push us to demand personal, cultural and political reforms. With these squares, we will be entering the first -"quarter phase of the 60s conjunction of Pluto and Uranus. Echoing the Hero's journey, this is the phase of the cycle when we have to over-come obstacles, where our determination is tested. You just have to look at the world news to understand that all of these energies are at play in the world, asking us to work with them creativity. When Uranus finally enters Aries in March 2011, we will discover new identities for ourselves, new ways of entering into the life of the world. This new Birth therefore, is important for us since it is our new Uranian identity that's being born in the Light.

The full Moon occurs just hours before the Sun enters Capricorn. This Gemini-Sagittarius Full Moon is not only a lunar eclipse, but also a Super Moon, swinging closest to the Earth and intensifying its gravitational pull on us. So we might get more emotional, more dreamy, more unconscious. It also occurs at the last degree of Gemini/Sagittarius, signs which rule how we think and what we believe about life, pushing us to resolve the full energies of the two signs with wisdom and compassion. The Eclipse is visible in Europe, in South & North America and Japan, and is total at 8:13am GMT/3:13am EST/12:13am PST.

5. pssst...BIG earthquake! 7.4 in Japan
I personally think that eclipses are like magnetic 'switches' that shift the earth magnetically inside...could this be a significant connection?
