Len Wallick offers a wonderfully clear and evocative articulation of lunar nodes and eclipses, as well as the space/time bubble in which they both occur and flash us out of towards the sun every six months or so. Every six months or so, Earth lines up with Moon and Sun, in a straight line, at least twice — Earth/Moon/Sun, or Moon/Earth/Sun. See this straight line as an arrow pointing us into the vast beyond in which we “live and move and have our being.”
And when this eclipse in the expansive, philosophical Sagittarius/Gemini axis occurs on the very day that revolutionary Uranus turns to go into direct motion at 0° Aries, that ground zero point of new beginnings, well, get ready for lift-off, a sudden, shuddering, even shattering, opening to the cosmos. How to prepare? Center ourselves within the emerging universe. Shed old patterns and flash into the now.

Connection — Total Lunar Eclipse in Gemini
December 5, 2011
by Len Wallick
Earth will be directly between the luminaries, Sun and Moon, shortly after 9:30 EST Saturday morning. When it happens, our planet’s shadow will cause the Full Moon to turn red. That will be a total lunar eclipse. It will be visible from Eastern Europe, across Asia and the Pacific Ocean to western North America. Even if you are not in a position to see it, you will be part of the event.
The occasion will likely coincide with an opportunity to integrate patterns you have created or taken on since the partial solar eclipse on Nov. 25. If age and memory serve, you may also be in recollection of last March, or December 1992, perhaps even in anticipation of the new year. That’s because eclipses have a way of connecting the vastness of space-time into the now, a connection that invites your participation.
Earth’s orbit around Sun carves an elliptical plane through space-time. We see it as the Sun’s apparent path across the sky. We call it the ecliptic. Moon’s orbit around Earth traces a different plane, at an angle to the ecliptic. We see it as Moon’s path across the sky. The separate luminary paths cross at two slowly moving and perpetually opposing points called the lunar nodes.
Every month Sol and Luna are also at an opposition (with Earth in between) called a Full Moon. Every six months or so, the luminaries oppose while each one is in the vicinity of a node. When the nodes and opposing luminaries are thus conjoined, they are aligned with our planet. This results in visible evidence of a common connection through space-time: a lunar eclipse. It does not stop there. Eclipses connect to each other.
Eclipses usually take place in pairs, at consecutive New and Full Moons. That’s an eclipse cycle. While there are sometimes three in a row, as earlier this year, there are never less than two. The period between them expands the reach of Luna’s monthly cycle through its connection with the Sun’s annual cycle. Regardless of whether the period begins with a solar or lunar eclipse, the first event opens a fortnight that favors new patterns while old ones tend to dissipate. Awareness of that tendency gives you a chance to connect yourself, participating with a feeling of gain. Lack of awareness can lead to a sense of loss. The results can last for a long time, because eclipse cycles also connect to each other through the nodes.
The two lunar nodes are forever in opposition. The axis that connects them rotates slowly in retrograde motion through the zodiac, returning to the same position after a period of nearly 19 years. Because the nodes dictate where and when eclipses take place, we can expect eclipses to repeat in the same degree every few decades. That will be the case again this weekend, reprising the lunar eclipse of December 9, 1992 when the Sagittarius Sun and Gemini Moon were also at 18+ degrees of their respective signs. While that re-visitation may bring something forward for you, it does not mean that you are fated to be pulled back. That’s because eclipses do not take place in an isolated context. They are part of everything else going on in the solar system, making each eclipse a fresh start.
If ever there was a planet associated with a fresh start, it’s Uranus. This weekend it will station direct in the first degree of Aries, where it was for the Vernal Equinox, less than eight hours before the Gemini lunar eclipse. That concurrence did not happen in 1992 and probably never has. That the Uranus station forward takes place within the eclipse cycle, indeed at its its penultimate moment, clearly implies that no matter what you have done since Thanksgiving, no matter what happened in 1992, no matter how you feel, the cosmos is asking you to consciously acknowledge your connection with all of creation. You can start now and prove it to yourself by the end of the year.
Next week, Mercury will take its turn stationing direct in Sagittarius. As 2011 draws to a close, Mercury will have made its way back to the the axis of Saturday’s lunar eclipse where it will conjoin with four centaur planets in the course of one day. Each one of those conjunctions will correspond to a shadow tugging at you from the past, pulling you back into old patterns of rage, grief, abuse and resentment. Love yourself enough to identify those templates now, so that you can consciously reconfigure each one with behavior of your own design and choosing. Even if you simply acknowledge that such a connection is possible, you will have done yourself a favor for which the Universe will thank you.

There is an equally exciting moment occurring May 24, 2012 about 45 miles south of Mt. Shasta, California when the moon will be in perfect solar eclipse to the Sun with its shadow going directly over head. More than symbolic it’s a moment for scientific investigation. According author Richard C. Hoagland, “Dark Mission – The Secret History of NASA” by Richard C. Hoagland and Mike Bara, Copyright 2007.
The moment will be a moment that should register “torsion energy” predicted by the young , late, Dr. Bruce De Palma http://depalma.pair.com/index.html
Proving the existence of “Torsion Energy” has profound importance on several levels. (1) Mainstream Science does not accept its existence, (2) It seems to be a hidden energy that manifests in our dimension through various effects on planetary size objects (the Red Spot on Jupiter at the 19.5 degree latitude), (3) A hidden agenda in NASA, (4) Von Braun’s early NASA moon shot colossal misses. (5) Black Ops secret sciences of the symbolists hidden in NASA (according to Hoagland’s deep analysis in his book (6) cheap power production, perhaps 1/10,000th the cost of nuclear power.
Hoagland and Bara describe a simple experiment to prove its existence using a Rolex watch electronic tuning fork and a simple electrical vibration counter on the tuning fork. During the passage of a planet across the face of the Sun in alignment with Earth, there are 4 disturbance points as the planet approaches the tangent visible contact on sphere of the Sun, outside, the as the planet moves to the visible tangent on the inside of the Sun, then passing across the Sun to the other side as the planet touches the tangent point existing the sphere of the Sun then as the planet exists the sphere of the Sun on the tangent as it exists.
Now here’s the thing, Hoagland and Bara reported the strongest Torsion Energy in changes occurring in the tuning forks very reliable vibration frequency rate as much as a 7000% increase in energy into the tuning fork’s vibration rate. I think they said the tuning fork had an accuracy for know stability used in wrist watches of something like 1 second in a year error. (I forget, but very accurate) so a 7000+% variance spiked the fork off the chart almost at that precise moment.
They were using it with on an interior planet, I think mercury, not sure. Whether or not it will work with the moon is the question. I so want to try the experiment or talk Hoagland in to putting on a talk and live demonstration but haven’t heard back from him. If some scientist ready this wants to give it a try let hook up and run the experiment at Mt. Shasta.
Shasta is a highly symbolic holy mountain to the Native American tribes in the area. We won’t be on the mountain itself but wow, what an event it will be.
My kingdom a set of eyes that can proof read. Sorry about all my typos all the time. I try.
Dr. De Palma- Physicist was a creative thinker with deep intuitive insights into new thinking and the nature of consciousness. Aspects that only now are opening minds in the West. His many inventions are posted all over the internet. Every entry point into the mind of De Palma seems to indicate he use of words like “free energy” in describing his N-Machine, terrified the plutocrats.
Just listen to these words and ask yourself if De Palma isn’t somehow advising OWS spiritually right now:
……”Because these individuals and institutions are employed by the ruling elite to forecast the future and satisfy present needs and demands, it is clear that free energy is a threat to the world order constructed by business and the mindset of those who want to own the world. Free energy represents Man’s aspirations and dreams of freedom and equality, uniform division of resources and the ability to choose one’s own future. The fact that free energy is suppressed speaks to the greed and self-interest of a ruling elite which, even in the face of an emergency of global starvation, resource depletion and environmental pollution, will not give one inch if it means loss of control. This is an attitude of paranoid delusion and fantasy which can only arise from the alienation of a class of elitists who, through their money, are completely insulated from the reality of the day to day fight for existence of the common man.”
