Imagine the fidgety Mad Hatter loose on Twitter!

The Mad Hatter’s chatter is a sure sign he’s a Gemini, struck by a Lunar Eclipse. If his character were alive in 2011, he would absolutely adore Twitter. 1,000,000 tweets just to tell us about the muchness of the Full Moon, coming before dawn tomorrow. And, before he forgets he’d tweet that “it’s a Lunar Eclipse, best seen at the Moonset--oh dear, let’s see, when’s that? Ah yes, 7:18 in the morning, California time that is. Better pre-set the teapot, get the eyeglass, and my oh my, just sleep in your clothes tonight.”
Meanwhile, happy Friday, December 9, 2011...

Aries (March 20-April 19)
Lift-off for tomorrow’s pre-dawn Lunar Eclipse is actually today. You can expect big, volatile moods. You might want to look up the origin of the word “lunatic.” Not to engage in unproven speculations, but to give yourself a way to stay objective when you feeling very subjective. It’s all fire meets air combustion. You’ll be extraordinarily quick-witted and light on your feet.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Today you can enjoy lots of momentary excitements, like trying to make sense of 2 or 3 conversations going on at once on 4 or 5 different subjects. Use your masterful calm to defuse the tensions. You too will be feeling more restless as the energy builds toward tomorrow’s eclipse. Is it just that the light of the Moon is so bright it keeps you awake? Or is it that the light of the Full Moon stirs the passions, inconveniently?

Gemini (May 21-June 20)
The Mad Hatter must have had Mars in stress aspect to his Moon in Gemini! That is exactly the astrological event we have today, affecting you more that most. Add to that the approaching Lunar Eclipse in your sign, and you’ll be lucky to catch your breath today--or tomorrow. The great news is that right now you can effectively make changes and the way will be paved for you. You have the blessing of a Divine Alchemy--an exciting leap in consciousness, realizing we are all joined and there are no separate interests. You can read minds--especially your own.

Cancer (June 21-July 21)
The proverbial Jewish Mother, who always wants to feed everyone who comes to her home, must be a Cancer. Don’t take take this personally, in fact don’t take anything personally today, but the annoying thing about the Jewish Mother is her excessive worry. You are a master when it comes to caring for your family and friends. Your challenge is to relax with it. Some people will appreciate what you do, others won’t notice or like it. That’s about them, not you. You’ll always be lovingly vulnerable, never thick skinned, but others may see that hard shell and mistakenly think you’re unaffected by their criticism.

Leo (July 22-August 22)
The romantic side of Leo knows about being “lunaticus”--moonstruck. When Jim Carey wants to win back the love of his wife in Bruce Almighty, he lassos the Moon and pulls it in closer. You’ll feel that kind of power as the fiery Sagittarius Sun moves into a perfect opposition with the airy Gemini Moon, just before sunrise tomorrow. Pulling in the receptive yin energy, is to honor the feminine. That’s how to make peace with your feelings, wherever they are.

Virgo (August 23-September 22)
Like the wise obstetrician, you don’t want to be on-call tonight as the energy peaks for tomorrow’s Full Moon. People are easily upset right now, and prone to loose control. That’s not generally your style, but trying to add just one more To-Do to your list will do it. Careful not to spread yourself too thin or little annoyances will trigger an explosion. It could be you doing the exploding or it could be someone around you. More than other times, your Achilles heel is exposed--don’t take criticism to be the truth.

Libra (September 23-October 22)
Volatile moods that shift like the tides? It may look that way to others, but actually you are in one of your biggest balancing acts--staying near the fulcrum as the Moon approaches her polarity with the Sun. You want the balance between being receptive (Moon), keeping you ears and your heart open, and being assertive and appropriately aggressive (Sun), taking what you want. There’s a stillness, a resting moment, at the Full Moon when shifts are easily made.

Scorpio (October 23-November 21)
“Bedlam, it’s absolute bedlam dear Watson.” Your mentor, Sherlock Holmes, would have nothing to do with the cluttered chatter and nonsense that will likely accompany tomorrow’s Full Moon. The superficial is not for you. On the other hand, it’s a nice easy out to explain the volatile moods you feel today by blaming it on the Moon. In many ways you are going it alone right now, without much support. A time that tests your tolerance, and builds your inner strength.

Sagittarius (November 22-December 20)
You’ve tried enunciating with marbles in your mouth, even thought of sending smoke signals from the top of the roof, but communications are still garbled. You’re in a time of heightened stimulation, and your mind is in rapid fire. The Sagittarius Sun will be in direct opposition to the Gemini Moon just before sunrise tomorrow. The moment of that eclipse is an opening--a time your horizons open up and broaden. Take hold of the insights that come to you by sharing them with others.

Capricorn (December 21-January 19)
You may not come right out and say it, but what you’re thinking is, “I’ll do it myself thank you!” Finding moderation, the middle way, is challenging with the day sliding into tomorrow morning’s Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in multi-tasking Gemini. Frazzle is all around you, and at times in your own head. You’d like to simplify by going off on your own. Some retreat time would be good for you, but the cure is going to come from accepting help. These are not simple times.

Aquarius (January 20-February 17)
The course of today’s events, leading up to tomorrow’s pre-dawn eclipse, can best be described by one word--Lunacy. This is a helpful term, derived from Luna, meaning an unpredictable state. Your cool level-head is going to be needed. Of all the zodiac signs, you are in the best position to handle the excitable crowds. With the god of lighting as your muse, you’re a master of “unconventional” and “unpredictable” because they both spell your favorite word--freedom.

Pisces (February 18-March 19)
Here’s the formula for the worst possible way for your to approach tomorrow’s Full Moon Lunar Eclipse: First, call a bunch of old friends to catch up, and let them dump a load of bad news on you; then, take responsibility for lots of it even though it has nothing whatsoever to do with you; next, mull it all over in your mind for the duration of the day; then, in utter confusion, forget who’s problems are who’s and send the wrong email to the wrong person; throw your hands up in defeat; add alcohol and stir.
