The debate has raged on, but the fact remains: It takes me less than 5 seconds to balance a RAW egg on it’s NARROW POINTY end. I can do this on a clean, SMOOTH, HARD surface like Metal or Glass on either the Fall or Spring Equinox - and YOU CAN TOO! I can’t do this on any other day of the year. I have NEVER seen proof that this can be done on any other day.
WHAT IS THE EQUINOX GOOD FOR?
Aside from being the traditional Fall Harvest and Thanksgiving celebration this is a day that is all about partnerships and relationships. The Fall Equinox always falls at the 0′ degree of Libra (relationships) and therefore asks us to pay attention to creating balance in all areas of our life.
THE MYTH
The myth is that Libra is a sign of balance. It is far closer to the truth to point out that Libra (and it’s opposite sign of Aries), are both signs that are attracted to extremes. This is especially true on the Fall and Spring Equinox dates. Libra looks for extremes so that they can balance them!
Yes, the equinox means equal length of day and night, and yes it is a time for creating that precarious level of balance we find when resting an egg on it’s pointy end. But I don’t have to tell you that this is a very IMPERMANENT state of being. Perhaps that’s why we should give it so much gratitude when we achieve it!
Anyone who’s ever had a relationship knows that the state of balance ONLY comes from the tension created by polarity of opposites. Similarly, the Equal days of the Equinox are closely tied to the EXTREMES we get on the Summer and Winter Solstice dates (the longest and shortest days of the year respectively).
HOW TO USE IT
The best way to use the Equinox is to give up extremes. Let go of a useless behavior, addiction, thought patterns or other form of imbalance. This is a day for sacrifice and letting go. Bring yourself to a state of neutral, emptiness and openness. The energy of the equinox can be compared to the number zero 0 which is both empty and pregnant with possibility at the same time.
If you were to balance on one leg, it would be impossible to maintain that balance if you tried to reach out and pick up something heavy next to you. And yet, the neutral state of balance is the exact state of mind that allows manifestation and miracles to occur. All you need to do is become empty, and then focus on what you want.

Today the Full Moon is in Pisces at 23′ which asks us to bring some Piscean style element of our lives to a conclusion. To see the whole Year’s Moon Phases go to this page.
The two weeks following a Full Moon are a time for us to release and let go of something connected to the sign of the Full Moon - in this case Pisces. This can mean anything that is governed by Pisces. Here is a partial list of Pisces ruled subjects:
Escapism
Alcohol
Drugs
Make-up
Photography (with film, not digital)
Religion
Fantasy
The subconscious
Paint
Dreams (without action backing them up)
Delusions & Illusions
Fog
Co-dependency
Minerals, Gems or anything that comes out of the sea or land including agriculture
Property and Land
Additionally, the chart house where you are experiencing the Full Moon will impact what area of life you are being asked to let go of something.
For Example: The Full Moon in Pisces in your 5th house of lover’s, children and creative projects might ask you to give up a fantasy about a lover, or ask you to let go of an issue related to drugs or medication for your child, or it could show you where you have been in delusion and not action around a creative project. These are all Pisces issues through the lens of the 5th house.
Another example might be: The Full Moon in Pisces in your 3rd house of siblings, neighbors, short trips and communications. The Full Moon in Pisces in the third house might suggest you are spending too much time on the phone/e-mail/fax machine or running around town for a dream. Or it could suggest that there would be mail that puts an ending to something connected to your agriculture, mining or other land related issue. The Pisces Full Moon in the 3rd house could also suggest a drug or alcohol related problem in connection to a sibling or neighbor that you will need to ‘let go’ of in some way.
These are just a few examples of what the Pisces Full Moon could mean in different chart houses. Below are the houses and their meanings:
1st house: Self expression, how others see you
2nd house: Money and possessions, sensuality
3rd house: Siblings, Neighbors, short trips and communication
4th house: Home and immediate family, emotional roots, Mom
5th house: Children, creative projects, lovers and pleasures
6th house: Routines, work, employee’s, pets, health
7th house: Partnerships, justice, legalities, contract
8th house: Shared finances, stocks, bonds, mortgages, sex & death
9th house: Groups, foreigners, higher education, philosophy
10th house: Career, reputation, Status symbols, Dad
11th house: Politics, Humanitarian causes, social groups, parties, complicated systems
12th house: The unconscious, dreams, secrets, mysticism, art, insanity
You can use this guide to get a better idea of what the Full Moon in Pisces means to you, and what you are being asked to let go of over the next 2 weeks.

The loose ends that began before summer begin to get wrapped up this month as the luminaries all change moods at the same time. It’s like we’ve all been on a long summer vacation, oh wait, we HAVE been on a long summer vacation - and the stars have been supportive of this time out of time. But we all have to get back to normal sooner or later, and much of it happens this month.
Mercury Retrograde alert! Mercury enters his shadow on the 3rd, he won’t go retro until the 24th but the whole cycle is in Libra and lasts well into October. Relationships, partnerships and contracts are all under heavy scrutiny and review during this cycle. Between the 3rd and the 24th we are getting advance notice of the ‘issues’ that he rest of the cycle will unearth.
On the 8th Jupiter turns Direct at 13′ Capricorn and then on the 9th Pluto turns Direct at 28′ Sagittarius. So if there is a prize or goal you’ve been putting off all summer - get ready because you will suddenly feel the need to plow full boar forward towards it once these two power players change directions. Because Jupiter is aligned with Saturn all month, much of this progress will be a direct result of current pain, problems and limitations. There’s nothing like a challenge to motivate people towards a new plan.
Aries: There’s a whole tangled mess of knots and string that you need to unwind, untie, wrap and organize this month and it’s called partnerships. Nothing is clear or straightforward. But you’re mission, should you choose to have a clear path forward through the underbrush, is to untangle the mess and make something organzed out of it. Nobody can do it for you, and it’s purely up to you how much effort you put in and what the rewards are that you get out of it. Weigh it all carefully, you need to address this with your eyes open.
Taurus: It’s time to create a set of semi-permanent, solid but malleable, carved-in-stone plans that are open to interpretation. In other words: don’t hesitate to make your plans and move forward with them, but be ready to change them and cling to your dreams and aspirations with everything you’ve got. This is one cycle where you WILL be able to attract the team, the partners and the help you need. The only downside with having a team is that then you’ve got to learn how to negotiate with them.
Gemini: You are standing on the precipice of having everything you want. The key of course is to learn to recognize it when the ‘total package’ walks into the room. You see, you could get stuck feeling like you are pulled between many different directions. You could also think that these options collide with each other. Let me make this perfectly clear, those many directions are within YOU - the package is all there. All you have to do is open it.
Cancer: Sept 15 is a New Moon in Pisces then Sept 29 is the Full Moon in Libra. A mixed bag of things emerges for you this month. On one hand great good luck and good fortune is opening up for you in your partnerships, but this blessing may come on the heels of something you need to give up or let go of. Releasing an old useless attitude or philosophy is extremely important if you hope to take full advantage of the new and good that’s coming your way - so don’t hang on to the past TOO tightly.
Leo: You are focused on the group and what the group needs and wants. Your feelings of loyalty to the ‘team’ are commendable but don’t be surprised if this same team you are defending suddenly acts unpredictably making you wonder why you even bothered. The Universe is trying to give you more freedom, so don’t cling too, too tightly to routines, tradition and the status quo. The current stars will break these, so learn to roll with the punches.
Virgo: SheEesh! What a month you have in store, I can hear my Jewish ancesters hitting their foreheads and saying oy-vey! Time to focus on what you can organize and dig into the hard work in front of you with both hands. This WILL BE your road to freedom when all the crazy, crazy chaos hits your arena of financial partnerships and alliances. Please, whatever you do, don’t be tempted to think that any final word you get this month is actually the FINAL word. Oh no, there is much negotiating and changing of minds for you to live through still.
Libra: Well, you are the center of the storm this month. The true secret to being a wizard in the world is to remain as the eye of the storm and allow the swirling, twirling mess to spin around you while YOU remain calm and centered. The more focused you can remain on what you want and how you want it, the better you will be. Do not be distracted by the man behind the curtain - that man who calls himself the wizard of Oz. The real wiz is you, don’t forget it!
Scorpio: A subsconscious conflict is coming to the surface this month and it effects your entire equalibrium. Your sector of secret and/or bedroom pleasures is being lit up like a 4th of July fireworks display. Wowza! That’s a whole lotta good time goin’ on for you. Is it something secret and dirty? If so, don’t expect yourself to be able to get away with it scott free. If nobody else punishes you, you’ll be sure to punish yourself, so be very careful where you tread this month.
Sagittarius: Pluto spends his last gasp on your doorstep between now and the end of ‘08. This ends a 15 YEAR cycle for you. Has it been good? Not? Now is the time to review it all, look it over carefully and bless it as you release and move onto something brand new. The good news is that now I’ve given you advance warning and you get to spend the next few months clearing out the rubble and releasing all the power-plays and intensity that this Pluto cycle has represented. Get ready for something new, it’s coming.
Capricorn: Jupiter moves forward in Capricorn on the 8th. You finally get the green light from the Universe to go ahead with your plans and goals. The screwy Mercury/Mars/Venus cycle in Libra will create drama though. So expect your career/marriage status to be up in the air and unsettled for the next few months. Oh, to heck with it, why not just focus on your career and leave this relationship stuff to sort itself out for the next few months? I think that might be a much easier way to deal with it. Focus on your goal, let the drama take care of itself.
Aquarius: Teams and groups are in sharp focus for you all month long. You’re sure to attract at least a few charming and delightful teammembers this month, which will bring a big smile to your face. Getting people all riled up and motivated by a dream, goal or aspiration is the key ingredient and leads you to be surrounded by exciting and stimulating new people. Just what the doctor ordered - a shot of excitement to help you get things done.
Pisces: Cockeyed optimism, delicate balance and unsteady alliances rule the month for you. Yes, you know it’s time to team up with people, yes you know there may be strange dealings ahead, yes you know you might not be able to fully count on what they are saying now. But you’ve got to make progress, so you’re willing to set sail with it - no matter how weird and unproven this ships track record might be. Well, try to minimize your risks, and then remember, no risk, no reward. Expect setbacks and changes and be prepared for anything and you’ll be on a good path.
