Aries Full Moon: Goddess Haumea

Welcome to the Aries new moon and to continuing waves of healing and transformation! We have the Sun in Libra and Luna in Aries, I discuss most of the major astrological aspects in the broadcast for this full moon, the exception being that I only merely mentioned the asteroids conjunct luna and sol. I want to outline the conjunction of Eris with the Moon and Haumea with the Sun, briefly. These two heavenly bodies are considered "asteroids" in modern astrology.

​Eris, is commonly known as he Goddess of Discord. She is akin to the chaos dragon energy discussed in the previous podcast. Eris is breaking structure down in order to break through. Her processes support transformation, but she is the energy that appears to take things apart. She is conjunct to Luna in Aries, so out internal worlds are likely feeling the charge and the call for making things right, taking action, moving and going and doing things that seem very true for ourselves. 

Haumea is also an asteroid, also a Goddess in Hawaiian mythology. Haumea is the guardian goddess of the island of Hawaiʻi. She is identified with Papa, the goddess of the earth and wife of Wākea (space). In this regard, Haumea was understood to be the first human who merged with spirit to give birth to Gods and humanity. She is also the goddess of fertility and childbirth, and the mother of Pele. We spend a good deal of time in this broadcast connecting with her and receiving her healing energies to support us to transmute our fearful energies and resistance into harmony, peace and light.

A little bit of trivia about Haumea: this asteroid's shape is actually somewhat unusual in that she is an ellipse with a size of 1920 x 1540 x 990 km. This shape is consistent with a *super* rapidly rotating object, where the rotation elongates the body. She is orbited by at least two small icy moons. These moons are called after two daughters of Haumea:  “Hiʻiaka” (the patron goddess of the Big Island of Hawaii) and “Namaka” (the goddess of the sea).
