(Full Moon cont'd) This is the Dawning of the Age of Aquarius...yayaya

I forgot to mention that this Aquarius Full Moon (see below) is also an eclipse. It's just a tiny eclipse... the Moon will slip into earths shadow for a short while... just enough to be called an eclipse. You probably wont be even able to see it. That's kind of fitting in with the rest of the astrology that is making so much around us so strange and inscrutable. Is it an eclipse or isn't it? Is it a truth or a lie? Haha. The mystery! If it is... eclipses represent beginnings and endings. The rather electric and somewhat unstable energy right now means anything can and will happen. Expect the unexpected. Aquarius itself is a maverick. Its the quirky computer nerd or the out-there astrologer or the self employed entrepreneur. Aquarian needs a lot of space and personal freedom. It's the  part of us that doesn't fit it. And yet, paradoxically, Aquarius also represents the group. The age of Aquarius is all about a shift into a more universal level of connect

Full Moon Madness

I spent several hours today writing about Thursday's Full Moon in Aquarius ... only to discover the whole post has disappeared! That is a small example of the weird energies that are disrupting our plans and expectations.  That which seems solid is not (Saturn sqaure Neptune) as the lines between truth and fiction are becoming more and more blurred. We are going to have to get creative if we want to survive this period with our sanity intact. A Full Moon brings to  fruition the energy set at the previous New Moon, which was a continuation of the strange morphing energy field that has had so many of us shaking our heads in total bewilderment. That  energy is dissolving and obscuring reality (like how it disappeared my blog post) -  a bit like Mercury retrograde, only weirder. Add some very volatile and unstable elements and this Full Moon could be another trigger point for potentially unsettling events. Because the opposition of Sun and Moon creates a polarized see-saw of

You win some, you lose some!

We could be facing our deepest fears about love right now, as well as our greatest illusions.  This Friday, Venus (love) in tension with both Neptune (illusions, delusions)and Saturn (fear and restriction) could stir up old bugaboos around loss and  abandonment. Fear is the opposite of love. It comes via a closed heart, and o ur heart closes when we don't feel safe. Saturn is stoking those fears right now as it turns direct at the same time that it squares both Venus and Neptune. Saturn is the hard taskmaster. Neptune just wants to escape. Retrograde Saturn has had us facing our limiting beliefs. The  current tension with Venus brings out our fears around love... our fears of 'lack' and not enough! You know... the cup half empty! To open our heart takes courage and a willingness to face things exactly as they are (Saturn). And also the flexibity (Neptune)  to allow for new possibilities. That's the creative part. It means letting go of your old 'story' so someth

Art and Soul

Neptune Opposite Mercury blurs our linear thinking and opens up our creativity!  Moon opposite Uranus adds a touch of creative genius.  This is an excellent time to tap into our Art and Soul! "Images have a way of bypassing the chatter of our logical minds and nudging our deep soul wisdom where intuitive answers can be found and spoken."  ~Seena Frost, Founder of SoulCollage®  One way to tap into the more positive aspects of the current madness of mutable, morphing and somewhat unpredictable energy is through creativity. Perhaps your linear world has gone all topsy -turvy, but in terms of art making,  chaos is the perfect ground for invention! We can use this weird and wonderful stuff to access our muse in a miriad of ways.  Even if you've never done them before, and in fact especially if you've never done them before, m usic, poetry painting, collage, dream work ... c an reveal your own inner knowing and wisdom. This is the time, this is the moment.  A portal is open

New Moon in Leo Shine on!

NEW MOON in LEO!  New Moon. New moment, New choice!  Time to set a new intention for the coming month based on your inner courage and innate ability to SHINE!  Leo rules the HEART!  Find the COURGAGE (cour =heart) to be true to yourself! In doing so you give permission to others to shine as well.  Just make sure you are GROUND yourself (Saturn) with DISCIPLINE  and INTEGRITY! Ongoing STRANGENESS and morphing  of reality continues to challenge us all. DISCERNMENT is key.  So much shifting and shaking breaks down our defenses and exposes our VULNERABILITIES. Instead of hiding behind false ego masks, admitting our weaknesses allows us to face and heal our inner wounds, thus allowing  our TRUE SELF to shine.  Remember, t he CRACKS are where the LIGHT gets in! Our suffering can awaken our humanity. "A sufi holy man was asked what forgiveness is. He said, - it is the fragrance that flowers give when they are crushed." ~ Rumi FORGIVENESS of self and others is a majour key to moving
