New Moon in Virgo

September 2002.

This New Moon is midway between Solar eclipses. As such it represents a 'destiny point of balance' between Saros cycles. It is a very difficult and dynamic lunation. The New Moon is tightly square Pluto. This suggest a potentially traumatic time and a struggle to confront and harness a new impulse of change. The chart is also dominated by Jupiter opposing Neptune which impregnates this time with much disillusion and glamour.

At London this opposition squares the MC, indicating powerful forces at work there.
