I see! He is quite the walking paradox, your Mr. Sag. But I see why he's a Gypsy Moon now. Interesting book. I'll see if I can get the kindle edition, no way I am waiting for the delivery lol. ------------------ ~the raving one dancing in the nude~ IP: Logged |

Lee, as if I knew the answer to your dilemma I found the concjunction for my month and my natal Moon is about 85 deg behind it which means it's a legit Fourth Quarter specimen. ------------------ I'm sooo happy! I mean, cappy. IP: Logged |

If you can find some common base it sounds to me like you could teach each other some valuable things. Interestingly Mr Sags and my Moon phase seem to both hint at the imnportance of freedom.

yours: USURPERS MOON or BARLEYCORN MOON It is the Moon of the sacrificial King, the hardest of the Leo Moons, as they do not have the showy confidence of the other Leo Moon and might experience setbacks and being belittled in childhhood. However they have the quiet deep strenght and the ability to love with the quiet passion and abandon of a (wo)man knowing that this could be the last day on earth. Sounds like an all-or-nothing Moon, but in a quiet way. His:

MISER`S MOON Interestingly also the mentioining of sacrifice, this time resulting in a tendency to wanting to cling to what the Cappy-Moon has. Sacrifice only in exchange for something of similiar value (which beckons the question is this still a sacrifice then or rather a bargain?)( had his Moon een in Aquarius, it would have been the HERETIC`S MOON.

Thank you! The description of my Moon is really, really spot on!
Yes, we have the same phase - last quarter Moon!

The quarter Moons - in her delineation- will bring a moment of crisis. In the case of the waxing quarter Moon, internal crisis; in the case of the waning one it is external. IP: Logged |

He's a New Moon baby, all right! 
About Balsamic Moon...although part of the phenomenon New Moon, somehow it is the opposite of it, the mirror image. Balsamic is the Old Moon fading away into that moment of complete darkness, which is the beginning of the New Moon. Balsamic - end of a cycle, New Moon - beginning of a cycle, so I think the energies are different, even a bit antagonistic.

Ceri, can I annoy you to look up my phase in your shiny new book? Moon SAG11, Sun TAU16.I think the lunation cycle is very important for the personality, for sure. My natal has a Full Moon phase, at 205°. I actually feel a lot more like a Disseminating. His has a Crescent phase, and I definitely feel that those are incompatible. The Composite has a Gibbous, here's what Ms. Kent's article had to say about it: "one of the most important relationship lessons you'll learn is how to recognize the moment when persisting with a difficult relationship has become the equivalent of flogging a dead horse." Ha. Ha. How very true. I felt this relationship was past its sell-by date since it started, and yet letting go has been extraordinarily difficult. Maybe because that Gibbous Moon feels like it's constantly building up to something, and you feel that the reward is just around the corner. IP: Logged |

Ceri, thank you for the idea of checking the synastric Moon Phases: I've made a wonderful discovery.So my natal Moon is Balsamic, his natal Moon is Disseminating. We both have waning Moons. In synastry, we have my Sun/his Moon - a sextile - Crescent and his Sun/my Moon - BQ - Gibbous. Now, Gibbous is the exact complementary opposite phase of Balsamic, whilst Crescent is the exact complementary opposite phase of Disseminating. They both make a Full Moon. Isn't that interesting? Not that I find opp phase Moons as being better than same phase Moons, but I find this amazing.
Actually, because our Suns are in opposition, and our Moons in the same phase, our synastric Sun/Moon aspects are the exact completion of each other's natal aspects. I find the connection with the Full Moon (as in completed Moon) very revealing in this case, because,I would read it like this: the synastric Sun/Moon sextile is a completion to his Disseminating Moon, making it reach its potential, by completing his Moon trine Sun. But the sextile is actually part of our Star of David - a completed close figure(involving his Sun/Moon trine, of course), made of: my Sun in Virgo his Moon/my MC in Scorpio my ASC in Cap his Sun/my Jupiter in Pisces my IC in Taurus my DSC/Saturn in Cancer
On the other hand, the Sun/Moon BQ completes my natal Sun/Moon decile AND makes a close figure, the Golden Yod with my Moon/our Uranus/his Sun my Sun, releasing in my Sun, making me the primary beneficiary of sorts! So the angle his Sun/my Moon and the Golden Yod is actually a vehicle for my Balsamic Moon to reach its full potential. The symbolism of a Full Moon - completed figure - is found in the two completed, closed figures: Star of David and Golden Yod. I just love this finding!

Yes, that's you, Queenie  Always standing a little apart from your peers, you had your own internal processes at work guiding and directing you in life. You may have needed a lot of alone time. Perhaps you needed more rest as a child. Your way of processing is through the unconscious state. Naps as a child would have helped you sort life out, and meditation as an adult will give you the internal clarity needed to separate from the day to day hectic-ness so prevalent in the physical world. You can be a master of the game, wearing the appropriate mask of participation. But what others may see isn't necessarily what they get. All the time, you are undergoing ideological transformation. As the butterfly suddenly appears from its chrysalis, you to will emerge entirely new, much to the amazement of all who thought they new you quite well. Dreams are a vehicle for understand your internal process. Keeping a dream journal and reading your story as it unfolds can bring what is unconscious, to the light of understanding.  ------------------

From the article that DM posted: quote: If you were born close to the waxing Sun/Moon square (90 degree), you gravitate toward partners who are temperamentally quite different from you, or who move at a different pace.
This is very true for me. I'm a second quarter moon, he's a balsamic moon. Different temperament indeed. IP: Logged |

HAHA, your Moon falls RIGHT Onto my stellium Mars, ASC, NEptune, NN from 5-10 Sagittarius, and your Sun squares my Moon and falls onto my nameasteroid exact. Not that you wanted to know that.  Your phase is the PRIESTS MOON, a Sagittarius-Fullmoon. Not like the priests of the catholic church of course, since the author has a pagan background. but one mark of them is being caught between intellect and inspiration and finding a balance between them.

Leeloo,the BARD`s MOON is the moon of the (wo)man who has had the experience of being King and having left the rulership behind, either through own will or because they had been made to resign. But from this perspective of experience they speak the truth. And as long as they are not attached to any feelings like envy, jealousy, power, rage etc. but speak their truth from a free, pure place, it has a lot of value. It is said that these people have great persuasion skills. The king would do good to listen to what the bard has to say, as he can learn a lot from them, though often kings do not quite want to hear that.

Thank you! That makes so much sense to me. I always saw myself so strongly in the Priest archetype. I don't know if you subscribe to reincarnation at all, but I have some memories that point to being in priestly roles in several lifetimes.How funny about our placement alignments. Maybe that explains something a bit to me. I had something to tell you, and, again, I don't know if you subscribe to reincarnation at all, so just completely disregard this if it doesn't resonate with you at all. Completely out of the blue, as I was listening to a Bach piece, I had a vision of you, as an opera singer, in a past life. These kinds of things happen to me all the time, I've learned to just roll with it. Me having inexplicable visions, it's just a regular Tuesday, you know.  In my vision, it was maybe not an opera singer, but more of a private concert singer, maybe a high-class parlour and sacral music singer. The tone in any case was that of a "serious" singer, professional and academically trained, not a "performer", as an opera singer would have been, as I know opera was considered a bit gauche in some circles early on. This distinction was quite a big thing in the 18th/19th ct. I guess. Especially in German music circles, the whole Händel vs. Mozart thing, you know. I just wanted to communicate that to you. Maybe you resonate a bit, maybe not. Anyways, back to the Lunations at hand. What LeeLoo said about lunar phase completions is a great theory for compatibility, I'll definitely keep it in mind.
