Disseminating Moon Phase: share, distribute, teach, demonstrate

Moon: Gemini

Though Mercury certainly received his fair of attention yesterday, the main player today is our friend Chiron, the Wounded Healer.  In Greek mythology, Chiron was the Teacher of Teachers, teaching the epic heroes the arts of war, teaching the great healers the arts of healing (what we call today alternative healing), teaching the wide-eyed magi the arts of the stars.  He's a Renaissance type of "man" and most welcome during the birth of our Second Renaissance.

Mars and Neptune are in opposition and both are in aspect to the Chiron Point - the degree in the sky where Chiron was first sighted.  04 Taurus is Chiron's "birthplace."  The Chiron Point holds all of Chiron's energetic themes.  Mars is in trine to it and Neptune is in sextile, but the two planets are in opposition to each other.  Essentially, they are creating a Full phase to each other, as in a Full Moon.

Full Moon: illumination, realization, shadows

I failed to record which Oracle Report wise owl took this photo of lightning bugs, my apologies to the photographer.  It is a beautiful image that symbolizes the voluminous amount of Gaia-Sophia's attention that is directed at us.  But it is not only her attention that is directed, it is also her protection and guidance.  It comes up all around us.

We connect with her through our inner wisdom and our immersion in the natural world.  It is not hard to find beautiful things to look at during the Libra lunar cycle, no matter where you live and what season it is.  Connect in through nature.

A new study has shown that sea cucumber extract kills up to 95 percent of breast cancer cells, 90 percent of melanoma cells, 95 percent of liver cancer cells and 88 percent of lung cancer cells in vitro. The extract also stimulates the immune system against cancer and impedes key processes required for metastasis. While the science behind this is very new to Western medicine, the sea cucumber has been used in Chinese medicine for centuries.

In previous studies, extracts of sea cucumber have demonstrated potent cytotoxicity against pancreatic, lung, prostate, colon, breast, skin and liver cancer cells as well as leukemia and gioblastoma. Researchers have identified a key compound responsible for sea cucumber's anti-cancer properties: a triterpenoid known as frondoside A.

On Monday, October 7, 2013, indigenous nations and their allies held 70 actions throughout the world proclaiming their sovereignty. The call to action was issued by Idle No more and Defenders of the Land to coincide with the 250th anniversary of the British Royal Proclamation of 1763, which was the first document in which an imperial nation recognized indigenous sovereignty and their right to self-determination. As we wrote last week, treaties with First Nations are not being honored, and even the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples does not adequately recognize the sovereignty of indigenous peoples.
