THANKSGIVING:
In the US, Thanksgiving is, besides Turkey and food festival, is time for gratitude. Being forced to rest, I have been more focused on the inner world. One of my questions: after 19 years in this body and the loss of angelic innocence, would I think and write about love in the same manner as I did in the Manifestation book?
First, I am grateful because, in this lifetime, although in the flesh, I could consciously access unusual levels of awareness but also a type of love that is beyond human, a rare gift, suddenly submerging all my being and re-opening my eyes, my mind to the unreachable paradise.
My heart is filled with gratitude and respect for those who have supported my spiritual journey, completing a daunting task for humankind; thank you to those who have supported my physical existence financially; also those who made the commitment of working with me, with the team in the past, on websites, books, events.
A specific thank you for the funds collected recently to lighten the burden of medical bills. The surgery was decided and scheduled in full awareness, as a definite, literal cut through karma, past and time. It is an opportunity to enjoy a personal retreat, in silence and inner reflection. After the decision to surrender spiritually and do nothing, last year, this is another step, requiring patience! Smile!
And now, the article about Mercury, etc…
Woah! This is so exciting… had a weird feeling in the middle of the night… this article was not supposed to include any astrology; look at that conjunction: Mercury retrogrades and plays around El Tanin, Gamma Draconis “š’ in the Draco Constellation!! With a conjunction to Saturn! Cannot wait to add a little AAGelic interpretation!
MERCURY RETROGRADE and THE EYE OF THE DRAGON
“Mercury retrograde 2017 starts on December 3 at 11° Virgo and ends on December 22 at 28° Leo. I chose the image above to represent Mercury retrograde 2017 because Mercury stations retrograde on a fixed star called Etamin,the Right Eye of the Dragon in Constellation Draco. That is nothing that special but Mercury stationing direct on the Left Eye of the Dragon 19 days later certainly is. Draco Constellation will have a strong influence on the astrology of Mercury retrograde December 2017.”
Of course, first 3D rule: no panic, When Mercury is retrograde, and you are sending, ordering gifts or post cards, do it early. Post office will be late! In home, in the Virgo. According to Vivian Robson, Fixed starEtamin, the “right eye of the Dragon”, gamma Draco, has a Saturn-Jupiter nature with Martian influence. According to tradition, the Saturnian predominance will give a liking for solitude. Good mental concentration.” Astrologyking.com
“Second, the retrograde begins December 3rd, and we’ll have a full moon that very same day, and the full moon occurs in Gemini, one of the signs Mercury rules (the Moon will be in Gemini to December 4th 3:37PM ET). Full moons are highly charged emotional energy, and with this being in one of the signs Mercury rules, that just becomes even more complicated. With Gemini and Sagittarius and Mercury all being communication rules, I’m thinking some sort of bad news, bad decision-making, bad ideas, bad plans. Maybe a combo! Third, the retrograde begins conjunct (aligned with) Saturn, who is at the end of his tour of Sagittarius. So Saturn is wrapping things up, and Mercury retrograde comes along wanting to muck it all up – Saturn won’t like that very much! This is exact December 6th (7:05AM ET), and there will likely be some paying of the piper, some last-ditch lesson, some complex karma coming upon us with Saturn. Maybe something with the law or with politics. (BTW, Saturn exits Sagittarius and moves into Capricorn Dhttp://www.thedarkpixieastrology.com/blog/mercury-retrograde-in-sagittarius-december-2017december 19th

Planetary event happening in the Sagittarius [the Archer pointing at the Galactic Center], on December 3rd, which happened to be a full moon at Gemini 11. Two degrees from fixed star Aldebaran.
On the day of the full moon, Mercury retrogrades, at 29 Sagittarius, conjunct Saturn at 28., conjunct the Galactic Center at 27 degrees.
The full moon is in Gemini, in the Orion constellation. Gemini, duality; is the truth black or white, black and white? Or?…
Retrogradation starts in the Eye (?) of the Dragon, Etamin, Gamma Draconis, is an evolving giant., north west of Vega, brighter than Thuban or Alpha Draconis, that was the pole star at the time of the Egyptian grandeur. Often considered the brightest star in the Draco constellation.
The name of the star varies; the Arabic called it Al Raas al Tinnin, the Dragon’s head. In the famous astronomical drawing, El-Tanin is seen in the Snakes’ ear.
Cannot be confused with the lunar node designation as Dragon’s head, Caput Dragonis.
In mythos, DRACO was the guardian of the golden apples in the Garden of the Hesperides; Hercules, sent by the gods, succeeded in stealing the apples. Draco he is also the Python slain by the solar god Apollo/Mikael. Both myth relates to the story of the Archangel Michael slaying the Dragon = necessity of the Creator-god’s Higher Self/Head to master and dominate His lower self/tail to allow and control the process of creation-evolution. (See Amen).
“In the “right eye of the Dragon”, gamma Draco has a Saturn-Jupiter nature with Martian influence. According to tradition, the Saturnian predominance will give a liking for solitude. Good mental concentration. Dishonor and downfall and loss of prestige. Esoteric and philosophical studies. “[Fixed Stars and Their Interpretation, Elsbeth Ebertin, 1928, p.74, under Ettanin]. http://www.constellationsofwords.com/stars/Etamin.html
Not sure yet why Ettanin is called the Eye of the Dragon. In one of the famous drawing, it is located in the ear… ok, if we take this map, yes, we have two stars at the top and we can call them the eyes. http://earthsky.org/brightest-stars/eltanin-and-rastaban-dragons-eyes read comments below.
Another interesting idea gleaning on the WEB, Eltanin the Queen: Thuban is not the brightest in Draco; yet it is considered Alpha because it is an ex-pole star… in the same way as calling all ex-presidents, Mr. President! “The mathematical wizard Jean Meeus (page 363 ofMathematical Astronomy Morsels V) calls Eltanin the ‘Queen of the Poles’ because this star will be the north pole star in the year 92020 and then the south pole star in the year 2083470!” http://earthsky.org/brightest-stars/eltanin-and-rastaban-dragons-eyes
And if you want to dig a little more, with a Frater-goldendawnonissimo, although the beginning of the page uses the same text… http://thegoldengrip-yshy.blogspot.com/2009/08/etamin-study-group_23.html
Bottom line, everyone refers to:
- Fixed Stars and their Interpretation (1928), Elsbeth Ebertin
- Fixed Stars and Constellations in Astrology, Vivian E. Robson, 1923.
ETAMIN, EL TANNIN, Great Serpent
http://www.constellation-guide.com/constellation-list/draco-constellation/
when THUBAN WAS THE POLE STAR, WIKI: rooted in Arabic, Taban, Thuban = serpent. “Due to theprecessionofEarth‘s rotational axis, Thuban was the naked-eye star closest to thenorth polefrom 3942 BC, when it moved farther north thanTheta BoĦtis, until 1793 BC, when it was superseded byKappa Draconis. It was closest to the pole in 2830 BC, when it was less than ten arc-minutes away from the pole”šÂ¬ Thus, the pyramid shaft oriented towards Thuban, indicating our relationship with the Draco constellation.”
WHEN SATURN IS CONJUNCT ETTANIN: http://solarisastrology.blogspot.com/2017/04/saturn-conjunct-fixed-star-eltamin.html
VERIFY DATES ON EPHEMERIS”š did it happen in april? Consequences?
Darkstarastrology: “Orion is the most lusty, phallic constellation in the sky, rivaling only Aries and Taurus in virility. He also has quite a Jupiter quality [Author: does not feels the same frequency to Me/me; for you to investigate]. But where the Ram and the Bull are fueled by procreation and biology, Orion loves the conquest and courtship of sex [“šÂ¬…] On a personal level, those touched by thisFull Moon may find themselvestorn between parental duties and theirpassions. The passion could be theircareer, life-calling or just wild and uncontrollable pleasure-seeking.” If you read the darkstar page, interesting questions about Enki, Enlil and religions. it is difficult to reconciliate all myths and traditions.
ok, my turn: let’s first gather the elements.
FULL MOON SQUARE (90) TO NEPTUNE IN THE PISCES AND QUINCUNX (150)”š TO JUPITER in SCORPIO
The moon is conjunct Aldebaran [9.47 Gemini, right eye of the Bull, often connected to the Archangel Michael] and Antares while, on the opposite side, Sun conjuncts Antares. Antares sits at 9.47 Sagittarius and is the Alpha star in the Scorpio Constellation. Antares and Aldebaran, Royal Stars, are often associated with the Archangels.
So, we are on an axis Gemini Sagittarius, with Taurus/Scorpios qualities. Axes show how energies, opposites complete each other.
In the lore, Horus, as a child, was stung by a scorpion and helped by Thoth; when Orion became enthralled with power and ego, he was stopped by a scorpion.
The moon is the Queen sitting between the Bull’s horns.
And Mars is conjunct Spica, queen of Virgo and opposite Uranus,”šÂ¬… quite an explosive situation.
T square with Neptune at the top, Sun and Moon. Everything can be veiled or deceitful ; in the present you could feel insecure, or not make the right decisions, because you see or interpret things hidden by your own Neptunian self. but we must add the beneficial energy of Jupiter, illuminating Neptune or reveling the Neptunian schemes, illusion (revealing because Jupiter sits in the Scorpio- See last article, Jupiter in Scorpio).
All this coupled with Mercury retrograding with a Zest of Dragonesc energy, flirting with Saturn (past, karma, structures) leading us to the ancient time when Thuban/Draco was in charge. and we , Mercury is retrograde at 29 Sagittarius, this is also happening in concert with the”š Galactic Center at 27 degrees.
MERCURY RETROGRADE – MEANING
In the classical interpretation, when Mercury retrogrades, you have to opportunity to go back and review your mental patterns, communication habits, practice mental flexibility. Do not sign a contract while Mercury is retrograde, be patient; everything slows down, computers might act out. I KEEP HAVing problems and losing the corrections, etc..
ON THIS SECOND CHART, STARS ARE ADDED. ET TANNIN IS NOT ON THE PRINT. IT IS LOCATED NEXT TO AC, MERCURY AND GAL=GALACTIC CENTER
If you have already reached a more multi-dimensional state, then, pay attention to sudden flash backs. Mercury, especially conjunct with Saturn could bring you to other times/lives/dimensions. See article below.
it is no more time to work on past lives. Yet, the planets and stars might bring you back to other moments in the cycle of life that we have just ended. Let”šÂ¬â„¢s summarize who the actors are:
- Mercury, mind bringing awareness, and the bridge between the human form and the solar Self
- Saturn, structure, time
- Galactic Center, the Cosmic Womb.
- Jupiter expanding our awareness about everything that was hidden, deceitful, part of the incarnation process, and hopefully bringing light unto:
- sex and power games, subconscious, etc, through Scorpio;
- old illusion, lies, with Neptune “š’ shift towards transcended Neptun= higher spiritual level, intuition;
- mercury/Saturn.
- El, Et-Tannin next to Mercury/Saturn reminding the role of the Dragon/the Dragons and later, the Reptilians, the Draco Constellation in the Creative process.
- The full Moon, next to Orion
- Antares (Dark, scorpio) next to the Sun, illuminated by the Sun
- Full Moon conjunct Aldebaran, the Eye of the Bull. The strength of the Bull, the gloomy old Queen next to the strong and somewhat authoritative Royal Star.
This extraordinary configuration is a powerful reset. Let’s have a good look at what we are, where we come from, what are the different elements that have participated in this last cycle, and restructure.
End of the End of Time/s with the August Eclipse. Jupiter enters the Scorpio in October. Reset in December.
How are Mars and Uranus going to be part of the movement? The Mars/Pluto (transmutation, death for new life) is rough but the Mars/Mercury aspect eases the process.
Will we have more revelations about ourselves, our governments (Saturn), our spiritual leaders (Jupiter, Draco, Galactic Center)? Will the old Illuminati or the Vatican more exposed? Without any doubt, this full moon will increase the impact of Jupiter in Scorpio, expose if not stop the Orion cycle, the male power. Although we have aspects that could be positive, for business, for renewal, are we ready to take in the light, the new, and change?
The Royal Stars are adding the idea of a conflict. Is this a human battle or a Cosmic alignment? How is this going to translate in the world of form, in 3D?
The combined forces:
-Mars opposite Uranus
-Mercury/Saturn/Galactic Center + Et-Tannin/Draco
-Moon/Aldebaran
could bring a pull on the Earth Axis, with Jupiter moving humankind out of the Pisces (Aspect Jupiter-Neptune in the Pisces).
If not, our internal axis and mechanisms will be greatly affected.
