Full Moon of March 5, 2015

Here is the chart for the Full Moon of March 5, 2015:

Full Moon Astrological Chart for March 5, 2015 highlights Yod

[Click Image to Enlarge]

EarthSky.org calls this a “micro-moon,” noting that it precedes an Eclipse on March 20th and a “Blood Moon” on April 4th.  We start our analysis by noting that another yod is in play in this Pisces (Sun) / Virgo (Moon) FM!  So, again, some KEY DECISION is in play for all of us, both collectively and individually.  We also note that yods (decisions) have been prominent in the sky since last summer.  Whether we realize it or not, the decisions we are making now will affect us for many years to come.  Only hindsight will full reveal why this is (was) true.

A yod featured prominently the recent new moon that precedes this full moon.  Also: here is the FM from March of 2014, the Aries / Libra FM of March 2013, and the equivalent Pisces / Virgo FM in February of 2013.  For those of you who do not know what a full moon (FM) is, try here.  As you will read there, it involves a Sun / Moon opposition, such as an Aries / Libra or (in this case) a Pisces / Virgo opposition.  The Pisces / Virgo FM is the last FM of the astrological year, signifying a time of housecleaning and preparation for the new year (the Vernal Equinox or “first day of spring”).

This FM precedes an upcoming Solar Eclipse as well as the Vernal Equinox of 2015.  Upcoming, also, is Uranus Square Pluto.

This FM (2015) is also characterized by two Hele, one somewhat stronger than the other, which indicate that people will polarize on two (or more) issues.  (Arguably, this is what we have called a “Hele Key” in the past.)  How you decide may be strongly affected by where you stand on these key issues, whatever they may be.  At least we can be thankful for reduced complexity compared to the numerous patterns present in the recent Mercury Direct Station.

For better or worse, and right or wrong, we now believe we know where we stand and are ready to make a decision (if we did not do so previously) and move forward at full speed.

The “stronger” of these two Hele contains Uranus Square Pluto.  For some (many, actually), looking back to events that occurred some time near December 14, 2014 may provide insight to what is happening at the time of this full moon.  February 7, 2015 may also be useful.  Some may wish to look further back to late May of 2010.

Here is an alternative view of the Full Moon chart from Kepler 7.0.  (The above charts were calculated with SolarFire 8.1)

The remainder of this post focuses primarily on astrological maps.  (Let us know if your region is missing and you need a map added.)

Here is a global map (also generated in Kepler):

We also offer the Solar Maps version of the map:

We now present the United States maps.  The first is a Solar Maps map, and it shows the key lines (major aspects) in play in the United States at the time of this FM.  The second is a detailed Kepler 7 map, and it shows a number of additional lines considered to be “minor aspects.”

[Click Image to Enlarge]

The key lines in the United States map are (1) a Saturn Descendant line that comes near Vancouver, Portland OR, and Las Vegas NV (and a number of other areas between them) and (2) a Hygeia line that goes through Sioux Falls SD and Memphis TN and a number of other points.  We note that this second line crosses a number of other lines, and this part of the South (Arkansas, Tennessee, Mississippi, and Alabama) are quite “lit up” by this FM.  Additional key lines affect the region from New York City to Baltimore MD (Pluto and Ceres), and another line (Pallas) affects Boston.  The region between New York and Baltimore will wrestle with certain important changes that may involve the food supply.  Boston, already a notoriously “intelligent” city, will receive a boost in the form of insights. We offer the Kepler map without interpretations due to the fact that it is so detailed.  We leave it as an exercise for the more motivated reader.

We do note that, per the Kepler map, (1) Albuquerque NM (and the region west of Albuquerque as well as central Mexico) is HIGHLY activated in terms of minor aspects; (2) the coast of California (including San Francisco, again), is also quite activated; and (3) Northern Virginia / DC (and Western PA including PIttsburgh) is quite activated.  Even though these are more “minor” lines compared to the lines in Solar Fire, they are so many of them in these regions that we can only conclude that the regions are activated.  This map also confirms important activations in Memphis (and nearby St. Louis) and Mississippi as well as Southern California.

Kepler offers “Treasure Maps,” and here is the “Love and Romance” treasure map for the U.S. on this Full Moon:

So, Albuquerque (or Spokane) might be a GREAT place for a weekend getaway on this Full Moon.  The same is true for central Pennsylvania, Northern Virginia, and eastern North Carolina.  The shore could be fun, or you might try Hershey.

For fellow Texans (and “nearby”) here is a highly detailed map (including minor aspects and midpoints) for Texas and the surrounding states in the South and Southwest:

Here is the Solar Maps map (overview, no aspects) of Canada:

We offer this detail map of Canada with a caution: because of its very northern location, parts of Canada are near the poles.  Since the poles are where all lines meet and merge, Canada invariably has a large number of lines.

Therefore, to look for points of activation, check for places with at least 3 or four lines near each other:

Toronto and the Great Lakes region looks interesting.

Here is the Solar Maps map of the United Kingdom and the European Union:

We note Sun/Descendant and Moon/Ascendant lines on the U.K. with this FM.  We are presenting a more detailed map (from Kepler) here:

We should note, here, that Solar Maps can also provide more detailed maps.  We are simply experimenting with the mapping features of both programs.  (Feedback appreciated on this.) We think Moonrise in Dublin (Ireland, not Texas) will be particularly interesting.  (Here is the chart, filtered to highlight aspects to the Moon.)

Here is a more detailed map of Europe (Kepler 7) for those who prefer this level of detail:

We note a number of activations for the U.K., France and Spain at this level of detail.  Additionally, eastern Greece will feel some sense of urgency (easy to determine from news reports, but this map confirms that), and both Saint Petersburg and Kiev are activated by some of these same lines.  Moscow is quite activated by a number of lines as well.  We present the chart for Moscow (filtered on 4th harmonic or “hard aspects” such as squares and oppositions):

[Click Image to Enlarge]

Note that the Nodes are near the Ascendant / Descendant, and Pluto is near the IC.  These are challenging times for Moscow.  (Again, we know this from the news reports but, again, the map and chart confirm what we already know.)  With Uranus also on the 7th house cusp, we speculate that something could go “boom” in Moscow.

We have had several visitors from Kazakhstan, so we are offering a map for that region:

As usual, this is a complicated map of a large region.  Here is a detailed map for Japan and the two Koreas:

The Pluto Ascendant line, augmented by a number of other lines, speaks to radical changes that may be coming soon to Japan, particularly involving the financial sector, with this FM.  We note, also, that this FM occurs in Tokyo with Moon in the 8th house.

Here is the chart for Tokyo at this time (filtered by Pluto aspects):

The southern part of the Philippines is also touched by this same set of lines, possibly linking Japan and the Philippines in these matters.

Here is a detailed map for the Philippines:

A number of visitors from Taiwan have stopped by the site, so we have added a detailed map for their region:

Adelaide appears to be quite activated by this FM.  We offer a chart of the FM at Adelaide, with a filter for Jupiter aspects (Jupiter is near the 7th house cusp):

With Jupiter setting at this location, AND with Jupiter as the apex of the Yod mentioned at the beginning of this post, we expect important decisions to be made in Adelaide consequent to this full moon.
