New Moon in Cancer ~ 5 days ago

Image
On July 14th the New Moon in Cancer offered us an emotional reset. Family issues were in the forefront as many of us sought closer connection with family and others close to us. Cancer is a water sign associated with emotional sensitivity, intuition, and nurturing. When the Moon joined the Sun on the 14th it brought a desire for deeper connection. And as always, there were some challenges that are still in play today. When the Moon (emotions) Sun (vitality) and Mercury (communication) got together in the emotional sign of Cancer ~ a square to Saturn may have potentially shut us down, making it difficult to express our feelings and needs to others. Now a week later, some of those tensions are still in play: with the Moon in Libra sitting opposite Saturn on the other side of the sky in Aries, stirring up those same issues around feeling worthy of love. Families are often the source of our wounding, and also our healing: Can’t live with em~ can’t live without em!! Su...

Capricorn Full Moon: Two steps forward, One step back

Image
The Summer Solstice came and went. Three days of the Sun at its highest point in the sky and now the descent has begun as the circles and cycles of life continue.   The Summer Solstice  activated the rare Saturn (matter) Neptune (spirit) conjunct that occurred on the Aries Point/World Point just befoe the Spring equinox...and these strange bedfellows continue to wrench and warp reality in new ways. I might come back to that another time as its highly significant. Meanwhile, on Monday, June 29, we had a Full Moon in Capricorn,and the same day  Mercury turned retrograde in the sign of Cancer, plus a whole lot of other signifcant aspects as well. Mars just entered Gemini three days ago, Chiron has shifted into Taurus  and  Jupiter has just began a one year journey through the sign of Leo. That is a LOT of shifting energy all at once, and even more to come!  Are we having fun yet?!!  The  Full Moon in Capricorn  may have stirred up som...

New Moon - New Moments - New ideas - New Choices

Image
 Sunday's New Moon energy is still ripppling out. Apparently for 72 hours we can still harnessing the energetic reset (so there is still in time to set intentions). In this nergy of reset and renew, choices are being made, intentions being se, words being exchanged and new ideas are being born.   Gemini is the sign of the mind, the details, the variety of life and activates a need for changes and spontaneity. Gemini shows how we learn and what we learn. Don't just regurgitate the things you hear ~ be wise and question everything. You know you want to!   This Gemini New Moon brings in new information to help us rewrite the stories we tell ourselves. A New Moon is a reset point ~ and with Saturn’s influence in the background , it offers a chance to reflect and rethink those stories. Which ones to keep for posterity, and which ones to jettison?  What is the next chapter?     Uranus in Gemini opens the door for expanded awareness as it awakens the higher mind...

Full Moon: Full of Possibilities

Image
  The Moon is Full tomorrow in the sign of Sagittarius: the wanderer,  the seeker/speaker of truth,  the archer who shoots high and far. Sagittarius is a positive sign that encourages us to expand our awareness, the eternal  optimist who also has a great sense of humour . Time to play a little(or a lot).     This Moon is linking to Uranus the awakener (squared): squares push us to act/react. As the Moon's light shines on us all, it may bring out new information and breakthroughs ~ as well as nervous system reactions. We may be shocked, surprised, or suddenly aware of something that changes our trajectory or our belief systems. We can gain a new expanded perspective as we we awakened to new information and/or new ways of seeing. Surpises and syncroncities abound!    There are some beautiful flowing energies at this time (Venus/Jupiter) and some very challenging aspects (Mars/Pluto, Saturn/Venus) ~ all are suggesting that it is time to step...

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...
