New Moon in Taurus: Planting seeds of Intention

Image
  Yesterday we had a powerful New Moon in the sign of Taurus (May 16th). New Moons represent  reset points ~ as the Sun joins with the Moon in a sacred marriage (conjunctio) that invites us to plant seeds for the next cycle. New Moons equal new beginnings, with this one is especially potent due to the proximity of Uranus (the Awakener).  Uranus is the planet of the electricity, of intuition, the higher mind and also rules the future;a ctivating change through sudden shifts , shocks, and shake ups.   Although the New Moon is in slow n steady Taurus, Uranus  has moved a few degrees forward into the airy sign of Gemini. Gemini is ruled by Mercury (the mind) and Uranus there can stimulate both our mental processes and our nervous system in powerful ways. As we are still adapting to this up-shift in energy,  it is really important to stay centred and grounded as everything continues to accelerate. Uranus was slowed down somewhat by earthy Taurus, yet now in air ...

May Day/Full Moon/Beltane

Image
  Happy Scorpio Full Moon.  Its a strong one and we will continue to feel it for days to come.   The following  is not my own writing:  A week of migraines has me  not up for much.  This is  excepted from  The Alchemist - Astrology blog that resonates very much.  I love May Day/Beltane: and having a Full Moon on this special day makes it even better (and more powerful). Enjoy the read and I will come back and write a little more when I can.   “Beltane is the great Festival of Fire, celebrating fertility, creation, and the ecstatic union of the God and the Goddess. It is a time when the  earth is lush and bursting with life-force energy. To have a Full Moon peak precisely on this night amplifies the magic tenfold. But this is not a gentle, airy Moon. This Full Moon occurs in the deep, transformative, and intensely magical sign of Scorpio. Scorpio rules the mysteries, the occult, our deepest desires, and the power of rebi...

Pluto - god of the Underworld

Image
 If you want to be on the mailing list for new updates, click on drop down menu top left.     Pluto (god of the underworld) in Aquarius (society, tech, groups) brings intense power dynamics to society. Every planet and sign has positive and negative manifestations of its energy or its archetype; the good and the not-so-good.   Pluto represents our evolutionary journey - Pluto (power) Aquarius (people)  which means Power OVER the people ~ or Power TO the people. We will be evolving from the first to the other, from destructive to regenerative. Pluto transforms, and in this case will be transforming society.    The coming era is predicted to shift humanity toward collaboration, humanity-wide connectivity, and "group consciousness" rather than isolation.   "We" over "Me"       "The Age of Aquarius is an astrological era believed to bring a new age of enlightenment, technological advancement, and community-focused consciousn...

New Moon ~ New Moment ~ New Choice

Image
 The title of this post is one I often use at a New Moon ~ however it is particularly appropriate at this time. This Friday,  April 17, 2026,  the New Moon rises at 27°28’ of Aries—offering  a quiet but powerful rebirth of the spirit. This is not simply the beginning of a lunar cycle; it is also the first New Moon of the new astrological year, where life itself leans forward and whispers: begin again. Sunrise: Collage image by Raven Art     Aries is  the first spark of the zodiac,  the essence of pure creation—the moment the soul chooses to incarnate, to act, to become. Aries is the beginning of it all. Under this New Moon, we are invited back to that original flame within us—the part that knows who we are before doubt, conditioning, and fear begin to interfere. This cannot be a naïve beginning. With both Chiron, the wounded healer, and Eris, goddess of dischord,  closely woven into this lunation, the path forward asks for honesty and truth ...

Full Moon in Libra:(short n' sweet)

Image
The Moon is Full tonight  in the charming and graceful sign of Libra. While Aries opposite likes to go his own way, Libra seeks balance, harmony and connectedness. Full Moons always bring to a head whatever was stirred up at the last New Moon (Pisces) (See previous post for more details)  ~ with this one completing endings that will soon open the door to new beginnings. We have been rehashing so much lately; stuck in the in between. Things are beginning to get more clear as we move more fully into the firey sign of Aries. Meanwhile, between now and the New Moon in two weeks,  important choices will be made. With Venus ~ goddess of love and ruler of Libra ~ in tension with Pluto (the destroyer) ~  this Full Moon has the potential to trigger powerful forces of change and/or conflict ~ with love and money at the root of many power struggles. Something’s got to give. Pluto with Venus could also bring up past relationships that still need resolution ~ I've h...
