This is an amazing year for breakthroughs in consciousness. Many issues that temper our society with darkness are surfacing to change the future. Issues concerning sexuality and abuse have been the focus of the news. The abuse of women and children globally is surfacing for a healing. Even the problems in Hollywood concerning control and power with women are revealed.
Historically issues of sexual control and manipulation were never to be discussed but it is a plague in our world and society. These dark secrets destroy lives.
Hidden secrets that formally could not be revealed are the most destructive emotional issues of our psyche. Some are so painful people would rather die than face them. These are the issues that we are here to heal. The truth really does set us free. The process of denial and repression takes the life force out of the soul and kills the spirit. This is at the core of healing the family affecting society. Many extremely angry people have deep seated issues related to denial and repression of family secrets. These secrets may have been passed down from generations controlling the emotional body of the family. It affects the ability to love.
Astrologically the Moon in a chart represents emotions and the mind. Those who have not felt security through family or mother will not be able to express love properly in their own lives. This may be seen in a chart where the Moon is isolated from all the other planets or close to Rahu or Ketu. This gives a sense of no support or security. Since the Moon represents the mother as well, it indicates a mother that has had problems in their own family of origin and indicates problems of the past generations. Those who don’t feel loved cannot give love. In essence they have not learned what it is.
The 4th house is relative to the Moon since it is the house of the mother and family. The Moon rules the 4th sign Cancer and the Moon is karaka of the 4th house. The Moon is the reflective receptive force and represents feelings. Interestingly the 4th house rules the heart. But it is known that the 5th house and the Sun also rule the heart. The 5th house is relative to the sign Leo since it is the 5th sign. Since the Sun is the giver of the life force, this can be symbolically understood it rules blood flow. So if the Sun puts forth energy and the Moon receives and reflects back the light of the Sun then the 4th and 5th houses as they rule the heart indicate that they must rule the different chambers of the heart. The 4th house rules the chamber of the heart that receives the blood and the 5th house rules the chamber that puts out the blood to the body. Symbolically this means the 4th house rules the ability to receive love and the 5th house rules the ability to give love. Interestingly our world and society is built around male and female and the family based on the love of our mother and father.
