Introduction

Pathfinder Report is a new Moon Astrology report intended to assist in advancing personal significance, equality and sovereignty through self observation and admission. The following description merges astrophysical data at the moment of new Moon with archetypal patterns garnered from astrological correlations which are then harmonized with the premise that Creator's infinite perfection is first, has been first and always will be first. All is perfection.

To access the opportunities of new Moon energy we must be clear about being our own authority. Our own healing and awakening occurs through self responsibility. There are things we have to do for ourselves, no one else can take our hand and fix certain things. These things are set-ups designed to show us our power to balance and harmonize our living dynamics by accepting them as our creations. The part of us who is absolutely clear that we create our own reality, who knows that life is a mirror, is the part of who we are which can ride this rainbow spectrum of energy with willful expression, holding frequency intention enthusiastically and joyously through to manifestation. Our sense of magnified self acceptance will serve us well during a new Moon phase.

What is the significance of a new Moon?

Astrologically we can conceive of the Sun as correlating with our will and the Moon as correlating with our reflected self. The will and Sun exist within an expanded moment, the Moon exists within time space corridors of experience. The Sun includes the Moon within it’s expanded moment experience as it includes all our local solar system bodies within it’s experience. From the Earth’s perspective the Sun and Moon come together on moments of new Moon and so we experience the new Moon as a merging of the will with the reflected self. The external world of time space cannot tell us who we are, it does however reflect back to us who we think we are. The Sun and Moon correlate with our relationship dramas where our human incarnation experience is likened to a play. The Earth as the world stage allows us to experience relationship as if we are separate beings and yet the will ultimately knows separation as a local custom within a time space realm holographically facilitated by Sun Earth and Moon. From this understanding of Sun Earth and Moon we can qualify the significance of the new Moon as follows:

  1. The new Moon is a time to strengthen and reaffirm our will.
  2. It is a time to chart responsibility within the time space realm of the reflected self
  3. New Moon is a return to the light, a return to the expanded moment of the will.
  4. The new Moon symbolically gives us access to an imaginary denial reset button.
  5. It is a time to reinvent the self image, to adjust our approach and style as to how we participate in a cosmic separation scenario.
  6. It is a time to acknowledge and value our relationship experiences.
  7. The new Moon is a time to bring clarity to our role in the relationship dynamics we have created for ourselves.

New Moon Description July 2nd 2008

01 Concern over public reputation, professional or career reputation, can bring in many activities, accumulating as personal responsibilities. Mounting responsibilities may lead to health issues, especially in the area of the body between the knees and hips. Sciatic and or thighs being painful is a confirming indicator here. External validation is likely the culprit. Pallas Athena in Taurus during a Cancerian new Moon reveals opportunities to adjust one’s manner in how the public is dealt with. We can do this by using our feeling center and observing communications within a social arena from a sensitive inward perspective. Using the feeling center, intend to reveal which social interactions and methods of interacting are being permitted into one’s personal responsibility to a degree which has become personally overwhelming. As always we want to accept our responsibility, act from discernment, be effective by taking an ownership perspective. For example we may want to flesh out our own hypocritical behavior should such exist. The focus is to intend to be grounded socially, this will allow an increased sensitive awareness during social communications. We want to reduce the amount of personal responsibilities we agree to which are tied into social and professional appreciation issues. This increased sensitive communication awareness will begin to reveal the truth and value of each and every social interaction in which one finds them self. The quality and fairness as to how values, such as money and resources, are shared is felt with increased clarity. By directing one’s sensitivity toward communication, the true value of a professional or social situation will yield an insight into how society itself is able to experience security and comfort. Look to see how career or professional reputation, thru the sharing of values with others, supports some form of mutually beneficial social grounding or community security. The wisdom of Pallas Athena, owl energy, has a wonderfully diplomatic tone which will bring a sage quality to social and professional thinking and considering. Clearing and expanding sensitivity during community and professional commitments opens a channel to personal wisdom that will allow one to be more decisive when managing personal responsibilities. The main focus, be wise as you seek clarity on how your career allows the public to become more secure and grounded. The insights in this regard will likely have a spiritual formula to them. Remember this new Moon is in sensitive Cancer, use this objective sensitivity to guide social communication while focusing on how society, as a oneness itself, seeks comfort. Personally you will be expected to own any seeking of external validation, especially in terms of being appreciated for your great professional work.

02 Admitting that we have blind spots can be an auspicious and empowering intention which expedites a journey toward clarity. During the new Moon phase we can choose to admit that we don’t know what we don’t know. If we can admit our own obliviousness then we can begin to make more space in our experience for magic, for our creative expression, we can begin to act more directly from our heart and will. Our ability to seal and galvanize compassion for all creation means we must navigate within a world culture gripped and caught in an artificial construct “the linear rational mind”. During this Moon cycle we can intent to be divinely nonchalant in our knowing that we are inspired multi-dimensional holographic beings having a local human experience, where time and space are known as local customs. Inspiration has a capacity to magnify resonance and as such it is through inspiring inspiration that we are assisted and that we assist others. For example, you or someone you know is likely inspired by dolphins. Our dolphin friends can assist us as they frolic within their own self acceptance enjoying their experience from an expanded place of multi-dimensional awareness. As one who enjoys tuning into dolphin energy you can feel their excitement and multi-dimensional awareness. Allowing ourselves to be inspired by dolphins and by intending to reduce naivety or obliviousness, their expanded multi-dimentional awareness will act as an emotional parallel, a bridge of the heart, allowing us to expand our own personal panorama. The by-product of such a joyful experience is a light of clarity, directed by our new Moon intention, which shines into our own blind spots.

03 Neptune is currently moving through Aquarius, the fall of 1998 to the spring of 2012, a grand window. The dragons head, the north node, is also moving through Aquarius, December 19th 2007 through to August 22nd 2009. This places the dragons tail, the south node, in Leo. Humanities current awakening parallels these alignments. Taking the perspective that this awakening moves us away from the distractions of a separation paradigm into an expanded awareness of existence where all is connected allows these alignments to reveal and speak a wonderful story. Social groups which have been held together by individuals who find that their self esteem is qualified by the accepted beliefs within the group are being prompted to expand and or adjust their self definition by demonstrating their self esteem from an expanded understanding of self. The new or adjusted self understanding will harmonize personal and social congruency . Neptune is dissolving elite social boundaries and the dragons tail is reminding us of how our self acceptance has been some how defined by separation notions. Public reputation, group or social reputation, professional reputation, all these things can reflect the challenge to evolve. Our gifts are Creators gifts to others. This understanding will manifest through commitment and will bring support from Spirit. We come to know the presence of Spirit’s support by a quality of effortlessness which aligns magically with our inspired intentions. The opposite, when Spirit is not interested, it’s drudgery. As we evolve our commitment to awakening our talents and presence within an awakening collective we will be fleshing out how personal self admiration has been qualified by some form of social boundary. Social boundaries acceptable to an ego choosing separation as an unquestioned understanding of experience is false, just ask Neptune. A history of social pursuits unknowingly limited by a separation delineation will now be challenged by Neptune’s truth. If the dissolving of false social boundaries challenges self esteem in some way we can look to the dragons tail in Leo. This is not exclusive to Leo sign people, not at all, everyone has Leo somewhere in their nativity alignment. The wonderful thing about this current evolutionary dynamic is it’s power to heal addiction.

04 Why would the Universe greet a person with harshness? Because this is what it takes to get their attention? Teachers offer insights, lessons, and the student, who has free will, is allowed to accept or reject these. When the thrill or excitement of feeling and experiencing one’s own inspirational vision supercedes the teachers lessons the Universal laws of ownership and self mirroring can be expected to intervene. During this Moon cycle the inspired self is birthed and as a new born this inspired self may not have the experiences readily available which would be considered congruent with the specific inspirational quality which is being birthed. Of course on the Soul level all are quite informed and as such the local human who is birthing a new inspiration will have this birth accompanied by a teacher or guide, a Soul partnership between teacher and student. When considered from a spiritual perspective teacher can take many forms and not necessarily be a conventional teacher student relationship. Whatever new inspiration is rising now, what ever excitement is inspiring the individual into action, it would be wise to allow oneself to be assisted by Spirit and accept the guidance which in some form accompanies the inspiration. The inspired individual is wise to say “this is a new experience for me and I am excited, I am receptive to Spirit’s support”. By agreeing to team with Spirit and by being willing to pay attention to the correlating metaphoric parallels, guidance from Spirit is given an avenue of conscious availability.

05 Accepting self love as the most fundamental lesson for the modern human and while considering how humanity has become distracted by beliefs supported by false separation, then we can see how humanities current awakening will evolve new discoveries in self esteem. Self esteem based on separation notions can lead to comparison, comparing oneself to another. Or comparing one persons accomplishments to another, which can lead to self doubt or competition. Considering the connection between all things which people experience this line of comparison is dysfunctional. Among other things it draws ones attention into mental consideration which affect the way we communicate. When the local human consciously includes their Body and Spirit in their journey they demonstrate both self love and an environmental awareness. As the individual experiences and feels something these feelings, as body signals, will be chemically translated into mental considerations. Comparison thoughts hy-jack and devolve the body’s rather precise communication. What one can do instead of thinking in terms of comparison is to observe the feeling, use our feeling center, and allow the emotional sense of the triggering experience to lead us toward something. Act as if the feelings know what they are doing and that the body is aware of the environment from a broader expanded perspective. Becoming the self observer we begin to see current and past events from a perspective as if being along for the ride. Developing a witness consciousness effects our self esteem while demonstrating the quality of our self admiration.

06 Panicking over personal survival issues, “do I have enough?”, “how will I survive?”, which holds a charge over the individual will affect the type and quality of social inclusion they experience in this Moon cycle. The me me self who is unknowingly lost in a false separation paradigm can become enamored by their assumption and need for attention and if allowed to gather energy can influence groups. It behooves each individual to maintain a clear sense of sovereignty. Self love and admission will always see us though as here we mind our feeling center and accept our own personal issues as opportunities. The wonder and magic of living is in the journey and as such it is our issues which we accept as our opportunities. If another is affecting a group in some way then they are acting on behalf of the entire group. Those who choose to see issues as anything less than opportunity will adhere to the darkness of falsely considered separation, this also being a perfectly valid experience. Perspective and choice are available, always.

07 Does it get messy, with all those feelings flying around? When an individual accepts their freewill they allow themselves to explore a given dynamic from many perspectives. These perspectives lead to choices. When freewill is not valued the perspectives and choices are diminished. The body knows something about organic living, it has an innate propensity for survival. This survival instinct is founded within the body’s acceptance and inclusion within the organic symbiosis of terrestrial living. If an individuals body responds to life as if freewill is the stance of the inhabiting consciousness and yet the individual, from an ego stand point does not, then the messy business of feelings becomes the individuals experience. Exploring perspectives objectively clears away the so called messiness of feelings and yields an expanded perspective related to the dynamics which triggered the feelings. The clearing away is actually a shift in how feelings are understood. When accepted as a valid source of accurate information feelings are actually extremely tidy. If messiness is one’s interpretation of feelings then we can clearly see that the feeling center is not being objectively considered by the ego self and that self esteem is due for consideration.

08 Addictions are directly related to the inability of an individual to respond to their body’s innate utopian awareness. To move this energy an addiction or habit, can be secret or exclusive within a social situation, is established. The addiction facilities an energetic action which is uncomprehensible to the ego. The incomprehension is due to the egos distraction within a separation paradigm. The body knows otherwise, the body knows organic symbiosis, the body knows the greatest social club of all, Gaia. An addiction has been a compensation for the separation distraction. Current astrological alignments, including the new Moon in Cancer, and the following new Moon in Leo, indicate that much personal awakening is at hand. Can we admit and glow like stars? How will we interpret the new birth of inspiration and enthusiasm of this Cancerian new Moon? How will we respond to the urge to go out into life and experience? We can consider the value of questioning some things. Like how has an addictive behavior been supported by a social agreement? Has there been a social situation which allowed and defined a particular sense of self admiration to be acted out? This is not a question we need to trouble our ego with, we ask our body. Our body knows this all to well, our body tells us, our body comes alive with feelings. Feelings which a distracted ego would prefer not to live with. Emotional pain worry anxiety fear anger, are to be addressed as opportunities. When a person experiences pain they are being prompted to feel. Even so called accidents are not accidents, the individual is being prompted to feel. In such an event we can choose to see it this way “There is something which I must experience here”.

09 A group inspired by Mother Nature becomes inventive and diplomatic as they venture into a sharing which characterizes a new way to understand the magic and power of group intention. The allowing nature of existence exists in the Heavens and on the Earth and brings much peace and acceptance as it is this peace and acceptance which is dynamic, organic, and sensual. The multi-dimentional nature of existence reveals itself through orgasmic wonder. This springs from relationship dynamics which are sealed in purpose. Our life is not purposeless nor are our relationships. The current Cancerian alignment will redefine social community by asserting a focus and mission intended to expand and align personal awareness to community awareness. For the local human the template for Creator’s utopian in community is our bio connection to Nature.

10 Health related action plans launch new relationship strategies. People will feel now is the time to take action related to health and healing. They will want to talk and make deals related to healing. Inspired communications and power thinking prompted by personal feelings gets the ball rolling as negotiation and deals which are intended to clear up overwhelming personal health situations finally gets on track. There could be an increase in communications where setting a clearly defined course of action is the central topic. In some cases this could be experienced as an internal conversation turned outward. When money issues confuse health issues it gets messy. As an example, feeling dependant on insurance money can cloud the way for those who are seeking a return to ideal health. In such a dynamic the insurance company can be seen as a valid parallel as opposed to a governing authority in relation to a healthy recovery. Being clear that health issues bring an individuals attention to something, something related to self awareness and where self responsibility is to considered, then the return to health will be more easily achieved. To expedite harmony when an undesired situation is experienced always remember to ask “what does this situation allow me to experience?”. Painful health issues force people to feel. In some manner the person who suffers from ill health was not paying attention to something, not paying attention to their true feelings about something.

11 When assumed social edict acts as a sort of peer pressure it can stand as one of the final frontiers between an awakening human and their hearts most precious desire. Social boundaries relevant to personal one on one relationships are currently moving, they are either expanding or contracting. To see beyond the typical, to have a vision which can pierce the boundaries of socially common ideals where the journey of one’s spiritual awakening is taken to the next and the next expanded level of congruent awareness, means trusting in the face of those who we have come to know socially. Those who stand clearly in their commitment of ownership will inspire and influence the others and yet this inspiration is experienced as a by-product of ones own personal evolution. As a final demonstration of one’s trust a dynamic is set up where a choice, likely out side the bounds of what associates consider logical, is called to be made and acted upon. Bringing the truth home, from Spirit to the local human, from the Heavens to the Earth, requires something within the local consciousness, within the human. This something is an impeccable self love. Such a self love will supercede waning beliefs and develop into a divine nonchalance. We are remembering the light of Creator’s infinite perfection.

12 For a big heads up this Moon cycle be responsible for the expression of personal child like energy. This is not to suggest that we avoid inspired expressions of playfulness, frolicking enthusiastically is a wonderful thing. After all the inner child is the gateway to the multi-dimensional self. We want to be clear about the difference between child-like and childish. A child may have a fun time jumping up and down on the hood of the family car, not aware of the affect and cost of such a romp. Ultimately, social boundaries which limit personally inspired enthusiasm, will be called into view and their value reconsidered. Some social structures may not survive the power of child like expression. This Moon cycle offers an opportunity to manifest a personal birth, likely in the form of a burst of joy which accelerates inspiration. The arrival of a new inspiration will call some to examine assumed boundaries which define social life and bound the inner child to halt or curve it’s expression. The folly of such boundaries causes the individual feeling self to back up into the mind where feelings of wrongness rocket thoughts internally and cause potential health problems. Visualize summer fun themes during the new Moon phase. What would be good to consider, swimming, tennis baseball or badminton? Lets get the body involved in fun shared experiences

13 If we intend a particular social or community situation for ourselves and this begins to manifest we, at some point, will be expected to take action in the physical. If we fail to do so the situation which we were initially intending to remedy may actually worsen. Based on current astrological alignments during this new Moon here is a meditation which offers a harmonious and joyful resolution to such a situation: Place yourself in comfort, allow yourself to become relaxed and receptive. Tune into the community and society in which you seek harmony. Feel the comfort and security which is mutually experienced by all those who make up this happy community. Once this sense of harmony is felt turn the attention of your self and this entire group to the stars and extend this sense of community peace and harmony to the celestial or spiritual realms. As you feel the peace of the Heavens merging with yourself and your group bring into your attention the situation which you are being called to create. See yourself taking action and see and feel how your action is in support of community comfort, feel how the community comfort is supported by Spirit. See your self taking action joyfully. As you come out of your meditation you may be quite excited to move now on the magical opportunity presenting itself.

14 To experience an inspired sensual self coming alive, to feel the juiciness of life break through barriers of conscious inner dialogue, is to allow a personal journey of awakening to evolve and merge with an enchanted tapestry of sharing and interconnection. The divinely inspired self is intellectually indifferent, knows the now, is complete in it’s innate trust. Can playfulness transform the world? As human we are included in the dynamic tapestry of organic interaction. The quality of experience relative to this inclusion is related to the quality and choice of our allowing to do so. Through the mutual resonance directed by one’s evolving self acceptance and their personal choice dynamics of shared inspiration collect magnify and change our world. Such change, as supported by a grand orgasmic and cosmic integrity, will challenge some static structures defined by humanity, economic structure, religious structure, political structure, family structure, education structure, community structure, to name a few.

15 Increase in partnerships leads to renewed social activity. Personal one on ones increase and expand communities. Understandings as to what is socially accepted acts as a backdrop to personalized considerations intended to support social interaction. Mutually supported self confidence yields a sense of feeling grounded and supported in community. Feeling secure in community through relating experiences brings groups together who share new exciting activities. The willingness to give oneself to the overall security felt in a group comes from a sense of inner calling. To observe ourselves and identify how such a personal calling to community honors personal self love and sovereignty as a first priority makes for healthier community relations.

16 There is a new revolution coming alive which will change the world. Freeform creative expression launched from enthusiasm has a certain transformational power to it, a power which gets the attention of others. It tends to wake some up. Shaking the pillars of established order can be witnessed as the by-product of joyful expression the world over. Through the enthusiastic expression of others we can perhaps discover a new spiritual truth. Such contagious inspiration can assist others by evolving an understanding of how values are shared. After all the tapestry of organic life is in the sharing of values. An unconditional trust and acceptance that comfort exists as a sensual dynamic there within the tapestry. We can choose to discover how elevating one’s ideals of sharing values births a new commitment, births wisdom, service, purity, we can choose to play with the notion of participating in an organic utopianism.

17 With the new Moon in Cancer the inspired self may want to come out and play. With Venus in Cancer in opposition to retrograde Jupiter in Capricorn the receptivity to glee may well challenge some familiar social rules. “Act your age” as an example of internal dialogue will indicate a belief as to what is acceptable social behavior coming up to direct one’s choices. The inspired playful self may say “Where’s the fun in that?”. The negotiation between these two will bring up some past experiences and allow a new understanding to be established. Since those past occurrences occurred some time ago much water has passed under the bridge, much experience has since been gained. New perspectives lead to new choices. As the evolving individual trusts that they can indeed have their cake and eat it too, they can choose to intend joy through playful creative expression while honoring and acknowledging social and group harmony.

18 Being sensitive about survival issues can distract and consume valuable action energy. The courage to move forward constructively through career commitment while the Sun is in Cancer is supported by being receptive and clear about the mind set of the public to which our professional talent is directed. Whenever we know a territory well we can act directly without questioning our every move or thought. Here is a meditation idea which assists one to be in the expanded moment while on the job. Place yourself in comfort, allow yourself to become relaxed and receptive. Once you are relaxed focus upon your work environment. Consider the many different people your work brings you into contact with. From the stance of your professional self allow yourself to feel the mind space of those you are in professional service to. Feel their thoughts, their manner of reasoning. Intend to find a common foundation or common denominator which all these thoughts have in common. The expression “thinking out side the box” implies a box which contains the way people typically think. In this case we want to consider what is in that box. Picture a box and in it are all the foundational thoughts which you meet and share with those your work brings you in contact with. See yourself as a sensitive receptive person while you visualize yourself opening this imaginary box. Feel yourself becoming sensitive to the way others think. Allow this mental awareness to reveal a foundation from which your spontaneous action can spring. As images of different people appear allow yourself to be receptive to their manner of thinking and their beliefs. Sometimes their thinking is the result of survival concerns. Be completely discerning and completely judgement free as you accept the manner in which others think. As you complete this “in the box” exploration feel your own personal sensitivity being freed. If necessary allow your awareness to expand simply by releasing your sensitivity from any personal survival issues. Now consider this mental territory as a mind map, a map which your know well. Allow yourself to know this map like the back of your hand. Now see yourself in a working situation, something spontaneous. Do not relive a past experience here, instead see yourself being spontaneous, intuitive, and naturally excited. The more familiar you are with the contents of the imaginary box, the mental map, the more free you are to be intuitive and spontaneous while working within your professional environment. To close the visualization accept the beliefs which others choose by coming from a place of divine indifference, let yourself know that you are not bounded by this mind map. You can think of the box and the mind map as an agreed upon mental territory, a mutually acceptable space where you and your clientele agree to find harmony. Allow your self to come back to your physical surroundings. This meditation is intended to free your sensitivity and your spontaneity during work experiences and can be especially effective during a Cancerian new Moon phase.
