September Full Moon || Unity

September 2021 Full Moon Vedic Astrology Reading & Ritual By Gemma Celento

The Full Moon marks a pinnacle point within this year’s evolutionary cycle. The Sun hits the exact degree of material descent, in which the moon directly opposite the Virgo Sun (03’49’) will illuminate the depth and healing that begins on the inward journey. The Sun arrives at a point within the cosmos marking the completion of material manifestation within this evolutionary cycle. This is when the evolutionary journey begins its involutionary path. The theme of this Full Moon is Unity Consciousness. It is not an arrival but an unfolding. This lunation, and the energy for this month, will unfold higher wisdom through co-creative power… understanding consciousness behind experience & manifestation, and by releasing old sentiments within the emotional & mental world that have served the current manifested reality. Much of this awakening will occur through the sense of self and through senses.

This is the spiritualization and purification of channels from self, creation, and higher consciousness, thus unifying the self with higher mind and soul intentions.

The sky is lit with harmonious energies from the planets. Each of them contributes a unique signature for self to embark on this involutionary path. Channels are being opened and purified to strengthen higher intuition, how one draws onto themselves through the senses, and how one creates through desire and sense perception. At the beginning of the month this worked through the sense of self and external senses. It worked through the phases of purifying mental/emotional body impressions that shaped the way one saw themselves and how they perceived the external. The perception redirection is to cleanse the subtle body and begin to free space for greater sense of self through creative potential and co-creative manifesting. This clearing is working with Jupiter, Venus, and the Moon to heal the sense of self and integrate the ego. Another key aspect is the luck and gifts that will come forward. Many of you will receive good news, a new path, and gifts from past life karma. But on a deeper level these planets are releasing old karma that has been tethered within the desire/sense body. It will bring forward a greater connection to your inner gold. Your inner soul wealth. Wisdom, knowledge and insight will emerge from the depths of the mind. This is not learning, it is unveiling a deeper sense of self connected to the soul's gifts and wisdom from many lives. Venus and Jupiter will work to teach, to gift, and to lead. Venus’ role during this Full Moon will show what lies behind desires, to know soul self through desire body, and any ‘illusions’ that are creating unhealthy desires which block the higher senses and mind. It will show what lies behind the creation of your desires from the sense of self, and current worldly impressions. It may also reveal what desires are hindering your higher goals and possibilities. The emotional and desire body are being purified and spiritualized. If you are caught chasing ‘earthly’ worldly desires this will inhibit your co-creation and reception of higher possibilities. It will also reveal lessons from experiences that will aid you in claiming greater aspects of self. For some it will work the remnants of owning your power, for others it will bring clarity into your co-creative power and dharma. Venus will guide creation into execution. By the way of the sense of self, but also how one relates the external world to their co-creative abilities. Any illusions around structure or what’s holding you back will become clear. It’s time to co-create beyond time/space. This will arise from within.


These planetary energies are strengthening the channels for reception and unifying desire with higher mind, and will work to hone senses for deeper understanding of the consciousness behind ‘earthly’ and how one creates through themselves. 


Jupiter will move back into Capricorn to meet Saturn for a reshaping of the mind to meet this new phase. Here’s a video to better understand Jupiter’s placement. This will switch the consciousness, it won’t be as potent as it was earlier this year, but it will reshape the subject/object as it pertains to what knows within self and then outward. Jupiter will bring all the expansive wisdom gained from Aquarius and bring the unity consciousness into discipline, new time order, and new awareness of spacial creation. Because wisdom will unfold through release, and channels are strengthened, Jupiter will expand the mind along all realms to bring wisdom and direction into dharma. A new sense of self needs a new framework. Also Jupiter hits the exact degree of unity consciousness reflecting onto the Sun. The soul moves closer to unity within the divine, and with it’s fellow man. The overall energies are very harmonizing. Yes, there will be new structures and inner motivation towards health, goals, reshaping your world, and honing skills. But, those are effects of the underlying forces. Saturn will open the mind to new levels of intuition, new aspects of gifts will be revealed. It is important to release any criticism, judgement or overthinking. Pranic (Lifeforce) channels must work towards the higher mind and subtitles. Another aspect is to pay attention to discontentment. Jupiter, Venus, Saturn want to teach new ways to create and grow without attachment. Any dissatisfaction will indicate a block in higher mind and intuition. This is working to strengthen less reliance, checking, and reassurance from external sources. It will draw in the higher mind to build foundations of new self. Dissatisfaction will show attachments and expectations. Saturn asks that you purge your ‘old’ expectations that are tethered to ‘old’ experiences, to ‘old’ sentiments, to the ‘old’ self. You are the sole creator and experiencer of it all, and this moon will bring that into full focus on multiple levels. A purge will raise your skills and intuition to the next level. Get clear, and free. The ego has been subdued enough to allow a complete recreation if you so choose. 


Lastly, Mars is in debilitation alongside retrograde Mercury. What incredible energy!!!! The ego has been tamed and the personality is being used to serve higher purpose and the awakening of higher unified mind. Remember that ego wants to define. These limits are being washed away so a new sense of self will emerge with deeper connections to the world and one consciousness. This is so supportive of owning self from the soul, seeing the connection to fellow man, and understanding the health of your being. Not just from a physical level, but these energies are working to heal, to replenish and to strengthen the subtle body. Mars will work to revitalize Prana-lifeforce, to heal the self, to clear the channels of the mind, body, and higher causal realm. His energy is nourishing while strengthening, and the vigor will work to support Mercury’s inward draw of Cosmic Prana. These two planets will work heavily on the subtle realms. The inward draw of Prana will support Jupiter and Venus co-creation, and awakening higher wisdom. It will also give more power to the inner self and how one relates to the outer world from the new self. This is not outward manifestation energy. In fact any pushing will be delayed and met with resistance. It will go against the flow of unifying and how to draw unto oneself. As these energies build and evolve it will work to instill the power to create through the mind, and vibration, not doing. This co-creation will be met through the higher mind and also your fellow man. Allow things to flow to you. I cannot emphasize this enough. Mercury and Mars will work to draw onto the soul self (Sun). To understand how your world is created through your mind and energy. Focus on clearing the sediment of the past. The false ideas of the ‘doer’ will be shown, it’s time to be the receiver. The receiver of everything you create, to see, know and bring life into the power of presence. The release will also work for inner wisdom of next steps. It’s a great time to get yourself into the vibration that you seek. Whether that’s health, home, mind, all of the above. Nourish the deeper self and it will better support the involution moving into Scorpio. 

All the planetary energies are working to unify one within themselves, within higher consciousness, understanding consciousness within matter- experience, desire, elements, mind, self. This phase of evolution takes spirituality to another level. Expect to emerge into mid-Dec/Jan a new person. Be willing to let go of how you saw, informed, and created your world. Let divine wisdom awaken from within, it is rising through all facets of life. This Full Moon wants harmony and all the planets are unifying self to power, potential and higher aspects. It asks that you allow the peace and abundance you seek. You are changing energetically, it can be very charged for some of you. But for all of us, we are moving together towards the divine that illuminates, enlivens, all of us through our inner to outer world. Sending you all so much love.
