New Year's Day - Super Full Moon Love is in the Air

Image
--> Bring me a higher love oh yeah! Tomorrow is New Years Day - Super Full Moon - Full Wolf Moon - in the watery sign of Cancer. It brings a message of deep spiritual healing as it calls us to walk forward into 2018 with integrity and love (Saturn and Venus). Deep emotional transformation is possible now . A second Full Moon (making it a Blue Moon) rises on the 31st, and brings the year’s only eclipse for North America just before dawn. What a way to start the year! The sign of the Cancer crab represents the deep emotional patterns that are rooted in our childhood. The Full Cancer Moon symbolizes the Mother – and the Capricorn Sun opposite - is the Father. Pluto and Venus are also sitting opposite the Moon - pointing the need for -   and possibility of -     deep emotional healing and transformation around our need for love (Venus).   A beautiful Grand Trine (easy flow) between the Moon, Neptune and Jupiter offers blessings galore – shower

Happy   Winter   Solstice! - which   literally means ‘Sun stands still’ - exact today - December 21st at 11:27am EST - at 0 degrees Capricorn.  Jupiter and Mars bring a blast of energy to get us through the longest night. Mercury Retrograde is slowing down and getting ready to turn direct tomorrow. In Sagittarius, Mercury activates the higher mind.  And Saturn - ruler of Capricorn -  is here to make it real!  Luckily - Venus is nearby – reminding us keep our hearts open - even as we face the lessons of Saturn.   In this pregnant pause,  which actually lasts four days -  we can take a moment to breathe in deeply - and feel our  connection  - to the earth and Sun and the stars - and  to the core of our being - as we celebrate the Return

New Moon Adventure!

Warning - formatting issues again. Read at your own risk! Today's New Moon sets a tone that takes us through the approaching  solstice and New Year. The Winter Solstice is  an important yearly marker celebrated all over the world. As the Sun reaches  its lowest  point in the ecliptic - it appears to stand still for four days (20- 24th) -  before the days begin  to lenghten again.   We all  breath a collective sigh of relief and perhaps join in one of many  different cultural festivals celebrating the return of the light.  Just before that occurs - this potent  New Moon (late Sunday/early Monday - depending on where you live) is in the expansive and optimistic sign of Sagittarius.This co smic adventure is beckoning.  A New Moon is a chance to press the reset button and begin again. As the last New Moon of the year- this one is particularly significant. Before we can focus on what we want to manifest in 2018, we get to review the year gone past. And what a yea

There was a weird glitch in the last post - Quoted material brought a bunch of stuff/links with it - apologies. Mercury retrograde in action.  If you want to receive these posts via email sign up at top right.  'Like' us on FB (link further down sidebar - right side of webpage) for short daily updates.     We just had a powerful Full Moon in Gemini. Gemini is about the mind - our thoughts - our communication. It's about the multiplicity of viewpoints and ideas that our heads are usually filled with. Sagittarius opposite (Sun) is more about the bigger picture - the broader view, the grander vista.  If Gemini is the stories we tell ourselves - Sagittarius is the book of life. Today the Moon has already moved on into the sign of Cancer, and now sits in a lovely fluid connection with Neptune and Jupiter. This wonderful energy  is full of inspiring, expansive emotions.  Feel your spirit soar! Reach for the stars! And what a story the stars have
