Sagittarius New Moon
Northern Hemisphere
About this Newsletter:
All of the symbols in this newsletter refer to the moment of the New Moon.
Twelve hours earlier or later and most of these symbols will change.
Each symbol reveals something relevant to the meaning of the moment.
The moon phase and pattern type will have a longer span of influence,
but their effects will still be profound for that day.
This is a beautiful example of the scope and depth of astrological insights.
The effects of the moment of the new moon will be expressed across the entire month ahead.
The new moon represents the seed moment of the month.
If you can tune into or capture the implications of the seed moment,
You will be powerfully aligned with for the entire month ahead.
Most of these symbols have great depth with significant personal implications.
Tuning into them will allow you to master the month.
These symbols come from a degree of the zodiac and a line of the I Ching hexagrams.
There are 360 different sets of symbols.
In the newsletter the symbols apply to the meaning of the New Moon and the degree it is in.
A similar compilation of symbols can be done for the position of each planet or sensitive point in a horoscope.
There are 360 degrees in the university of life.
The New Moon
When your feelings about the past, memories, and your sense of security
conjunct or meet up with
Your confidence, purposefulness, and your hopes for the future
A profound impression is made.
A note on the harp of the soul.
A seed moment in celestial manifestation.
The Horoscope for the New Moon is for the exact moment of the New Moon.
There are no houses in this chart because the Moon is in all 12 houses at the same time when viewed globally. So this is the true New Moon chart for anywhere on earth. You can add the houses to it according to where you live.
Most computer printouts will draw the horoscope with the houses as appropriate for where you are on the planet. This was not done here in order to focus on things valid for everyone on the planet.
New Moons are the peak points of subjective impressionability in the month.
Receptivity to core insights and to God, are accentuated.
Chanting (or even drumming) on a New Moon will give an extra vitality to your efforts over the following month,
until the next New Moon.
A holy environment and spiritual companions are a great blessing.
The New Moon accumulates and reflects on all of the experiences of the past month. On the New Moon the conglomerate of experiences past, creates a high tide of intuitive impressions. At the moment the Moon meets the Sun, light is shone on these impressions creating a new sense of purpose. It is the Sun than effects the Moon.
From our worldly consciousness we cannot see the combination or aggregate of memories, but we can certainly feel it.
Unfortunately our habit patterns are too gross or physical to allow us to attune to this phenomenon consciously, but we certainly can feel it.
Only the initiate or one established in spiritual disciplines can clearly witness the New Moon within.
For all of the symbolism and associations given here for the new moon, there are also equivalent symbols and associations to each planet or factor in an individual horoscope.
Zodiac Pattern Types
THE BUCKET TYPE:
Nine planets are on one side of the chart with one planet on the other side. (The bowl gets a handle) (Note: If one planet gets past the bowl’s opposition, even by a few degrees, it becomes the handle of the bucket!)
This reveals a person who delves deeply into life and enthusiastically pours forth the results of experience. One’s personal efforts will go out in an uncompromising or rigid manner.
You will have a basic interest in a purpose or cause but you will have little concern over the final results. You will use whatever is at your disposal as you see fit. You are inclined to make allegiances that will be of the most benefit to you.
The handle planet shows the main focus or outlet in life. Here Jupiter is the handle putting a focus on understanding and principles.
WANING CRESCENT MOON PHASE
45° – 0°, 3 1/2 to 0 days before the New Moon.
This is the last phase of the lunar cycle before the new moon. It is often called the balsamic moon phase and it lasts for three and one half days from the crescent to the new moon. The light finally disappears into the mystery of silence and darkness. Completion becomes important. Your own projections seem to disappear in the vastness of all that is happening around you.
You are searching for something new but are unsure of how to end the old attachments. Your awareness of others begins to lose relevance as you approach renewal. Try to understand what needs to be left behind. This should be a daily meditation. You have the uncanny ability to know when anything is ending or about to fall apart. Unfortunately it is not usually wise to tell others about it. They would probably consider you to be too negative. You need to learn why things come to an end. It is important for you to mind your own business or you will keep seeing everything that is going to collapse on everyone. Learn to look within for the new vision. Trust silence. Take steps to move towards your vision. Be very selective. Listen and wait.
Often people will not appreciate you until you have gone. Try to insure that your influence is a positive one. Watch what you say. Often you will seem overwhelmed by useless or futile commitments. Do not try to save face. Be honest and let go.
The quality of ending will directly effect the nature of the new beginning just about to come. So be wise. No doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. It may not make sense to others but if you trust your conscience, you will see the way. Hold on to your principles. Do not make promises that you cannot keep, especially long term promises.
You have the tendency to lose yourself in others only to be left very insecure when they do not have the answers. You want to become completely involved with someone. You will constantly search for or wonder about the ultimate love of your life. Often you will feel that what you have is not enough, and then you will wonder why you bother to stay within it.
You are looking for completion and fulfillment and are not likely to embrace freedom comfortably. You want to burn your past for future goals. It is amazing though how long you can procrastinate and wait. You want to help but often do not know what to do. You will probably not bother until somebody else cares.
A little encouragement can have profound effects. To attract positive feedback you must be positive towards others. If you must end a situation, it is important for the reason to be correct, otherwise your problems will reoccur in the new arena.
THE WAXING NEW MOON PHASE
O°- 45°, 0 to 3 1/2 days after the New Moon.
This is the beginning of the lunar cycle and lasts for three and one half days. The light is emerging gently. From the depths of the darkest moment up to the first slim crescent of light, and a little farther until the crescent is smiling brightly.
This is a highly intuitive time filled with deep impressions and new beginnings. This is a time of seed moments and powerful insights. There is a predominant undercurrent of anxious anticipation. A new moon cycle is born.
Born under this phase you need to feel that your life is just beginning to open up. The challenge is subjective: are you prepared to advance your own cause? You should readily adjust your lifestyle to support any new sense of direction that you feel is emerging within you. You will be constantly having to make new starts in life. You will be sensitive to new beginnings and uncertain about your present surroundings. You are inclined to leave old attachments and memories behind. You want to move forward towards your goals and will be frustrated by any setbacks.
When you begin a project it is important to advance with care and gentleness. Make sure that you nurture and protect the germinating seed; ie. the new you. It is usually easier for you to do things than to talk about them. Remember that you do not have to achieve everything right away, but it is important for you to feel that you are advancing toward your goals.
You are the kind of person who plants ideas in the minds of others. You will reach out and impress others subtly. You will always be able to sense the new path that should be taken. As long as you are moving along this path you will feel relatively secure. Worries and problems will surface when you crystallize or stop growing. Do not look back or hold on to the past. Nurture the light within. Protect your own development and do not throw your good ideas out to fools who will not appreciate them. Neither should you follow the dreams of others. Trust your own inner sense of direction. Whenever you can make the effort to be creative, you should. Do not try to explain the process, just do it! Consistent effort will accumulate. Reach out. Rely on your instincts. Grow. Break out of old patterns. Move on. Move on. New beginnings always seem small against the vastness of life around you, none-the-less every journey starts with one small step. Try to find friends who will support and acknowledge your efforts. Always be cautious about what you say. Words can come back to haunt you.
You will always be trying to start something. Make certain that you take time to water the flowers and plants in your garden of hopes and dreams. The end does not always justify the means so make your daily life creative. Take time to smell the flowers along your path. You will be able to draw encouragement and inspiration by listening to birds singing.

Some Sagittarius Considerations:
Sagittarius is a Mutable sign. Mutable implies being adaptable and perceptive. Sagittarians are multifaceted individuals who want to see everything. There are billions of people on the planet and everyone has their own story. Sagittarians have the ability to adjust and learn from everyone they meet.
Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, the planet of principles and philosophy. Jupiter is the guiding light of one’s perspective on life. There are many right and many wrong ways. It takes wisdom to discern the difference. The more inclusive and conscientious Sagittarians are, the greater their successes will be. There is so much to do and so little time! Sagittarians are inclined to exaggerate and to overextend themselves. Too much joviality will diminish accomplishments. Where one aligns and with whom, will have consequences. Too much of a good thing will spoil it.
This is the dark half of Autumn. Darkness increases to its maximum and daylight recedes. Responsibilities and vulnerabilities ascend to prominence. Individuality and freedom recedes. Darkness is also greater than daylight. Social factors predominate.
This is the spirit of the team and of motherhood. Plans can easily get dissipated. Gossip can be dangerous. Do not encourage misunderstanding. It is better to work with the team than against it. Understand that everyone has vulnerabilities. Be considerate and inclusive. Help others and your heart will stay open.
This is the trigram of The Receptive, Earth. It is the trigram of the mother and no sign represents motherhood more than Sagittarius. One is busy everywhere. Everyone wants a piece of your time or needs something. If one has to take care of everyone anyways, one may as well do it with enthusiasm and make it as much fun as possible. There is little time for oneself, but humble service to others will bring its own rewards. If anyone goes hungry or is mistreated it will deeply affect your consciousness, and sleep will suffer. One takes one’s moments when they come, but one cannot force one’s own will on others. It is enough to be of service and help in little ways.
One holds on to one’s own judgements but is increasingly vulnerable to the judgements and circumstances of others. One keeps still and waits for deeper understanding.
The Eightfold Path for Sagittarius is the Right Understanding.
One needs to understand things as they are. One needs to see a thing in its true nature without a name or a label. This is only possible when the mind is free from all impurities and is fully developed through meditation. Right Thoughts and Right Understanding go to constitute wisdom.
Pentans
Pentans are five degree divisions of the Zodiac in which the zodiac repeats itself creating a sub-level of meaning. Sub-pentans divide each 10 degrees of the zodiac into 12 sub-sub-signs adding a third level of meaning. The Zodiac sign is the Main Theme, The Pentan is the Special Focus and the Sub-Pentan is the Intimate Detail.

Zodiac Faces
Today we see
the Face of Investigation
Aries: You will have to investigate a subject deeply before you talk about it. Timing will be important. Responsible initiatives will be well received. Hasty impulse will draw criticism.
Taurus: Your values will be investigated today. Someone will try to tell you what to do and how you should think. Do not compromise your values. Trust your own instincts and follow your own common sense.
Gemini: Mixed signals will prevail today. There will be good vibrations and spontaneous communications. You will not win everyone to your point of view. Someone will be critical and question the depth of your investigations.
Cancer: Do not take people at their word. If you hear something important to you, you will need to investigate further to ensure that the information received is actually valid. Do not respond to hearsay!
Leo: Smiling faces may lead to significant opposition. What starts out as a friendly gesture may also have a conditional side effect. Make sure you investigate thoroughly before you speak.
Virgo: Follow your own system today. Do no be misled by the advice of others. Too many people will think that they know what they are doing. Be selective about what you talk about.
Libra: If there is content to your subject matter then your ideas will be acknowledged. If you have not done an adequate investigation of the facts, then your inadequacy will be remembered.
Scorpio: You cannot rely on face value today. It would be wiser to expect controversy and resistance to your ideas. If you have properly investigated and have gotten the facts right, you will make progress.
Sagittarius: You can fool some of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time. Criticism should be taken as an opportunity to refine your viewpoint.
Capricorn: Subject the facts that you receive to a rigorous investigation before you pass them on to others. Practical thinking will prevail over idealism. If someone knows what they are talking about they will not be indecisive.
Aquarius: If you have done the right research and now know what you are talking about, you will find ears willing to listen. Accentuate the positive and present your ideas with style and charm.
Pisces: If you draw attention to yourself, you will become the subject of closer investigation. How much criticism do you need? This is a good day to stay aloof. Silence is golden.

Plunge into the profound mysteries of esotericism more deeply, and commence the required disciplines that awaken Soul knowledge, making it an active force that will transform one’s very being.
Cyrus Ryan, and a small group of esoteric disciples, after numerous years and lives together, under the direction of the Masters of the Trans-Himalayan Arhat School, who inspired them, giving them several esoteric mantras, combined with guidance in ancient esoteric tantras and rituals have now created a format for the Group Work in this, the beginning of the Aquarian Age. The esoteric work of this small group represents the first efforts in the externalization of one of the inner Ashrams of the Masters.
