My guess is that you clustered it and now it's waiting for the master to
come up before it can resync.

The simplest thing for you to do is to
rm -rf '/usr/local/var/lib/rabbitmq/mnesia/rabbit at oscar'
though you'll lose all messages, queues, exchanges, bindings and users
you've created so far. If you're just experimenting atm though, that's
unlikely to be important to you.
