What a month! After the naming of cubewano M\u00e1ni two more trans-Neptunians got named in June and a visitor from interstellar space was discovered approaching the Sun. This Full Moon in Capricorn is precisely in conjunction with M\u00e1ni, the personification of the Moon in Norse mythology<\/span>. M\u00e1ni controls the course of the Moon and rules over the New Moon and the Full Moon.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

On June 30, Aya and Achlys were named. All three bodies, M\u00e1ni, Aya and Achlys were found more than 20 years ago, in 2002 and 2003, by Mike Brown and Chad Trujillo. They are large, possibly meeting the definition of a \u201cdwarf planet\u201d.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Aya is a cubewano, although sometimes classified a scattered disc object. It was named after the goddess of dawn and the wife of the sun god from Akkadian mythology. Aya is associated with morning light and the rising sun. In Mesopotamian art many depictions highlighted her beauty and sexual charm. Aya is <\/span><\/span>at least 700 km in diameter and its orbital period is 324 years. Astrologically Aya is at 8+ degrees of Virgo at the moment, in sextile to Jupiter in Cancer and square to Venus in Gemini.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Achlys is a plutino with a possible moon. It is a third-largest known plutino after Pluto and Orcus. <\/span><\/span>It is approximately 940 kilometers across its longest axis, and has an elongated shape.<\/span><\/span> The orbital period is almost 247 years. The moon of Achlys was discovered in 2007. Achlys is the <\/span><\/span>personification of sorrow and grief by ancient Greek poets. In H<\/span>esiod’s <\/span><\/span>Shield of Heracles<\/i><\/span><\/span> Achlys is one of the figures described as being depicted on Heracles’ shield<\/span><\/span>. Homer uses the word achlys to describe the mist that fogs mortal eyes, often in death. In the astrological chart Achlys is now at 11+ Leo in conjunction with Mercury.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The interstellar comet 3I\/ATLAS was discovered on July 1. It is the third interstellar object discovered, after Oumuamua in 2017 and comet 2I\/Borisov in 2019. Comet ATLAS will pass between the orbits of Earth and Mars and reaches its closest approach to the Sun at the end of October. In astrology comets in general are seen as message bearers and symbols of change, and one coming outside our own solar system certainly carries weight.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
