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...

A Graual Awakening: New Moon in Pisces/Spring Equinox

Image
  The last New Moon of the astrological year occurs just two days before Spring officially begins! As we wipe the sleep of winter from our eyes, something is percolating far below.  This is a New Moon of both release and fresh starts,  occurring on Mar 18th  at the end of Pisces (6:23 PM PT) and just a few degrees from Pisces’ ruler Neptune (who is now in Aries). This event signals an opportunity for emotional completion,  and  provides a spiritual reset ~ inviting us to tap into intuitive insights and intentions that will lead us to new beginnings.   Every New Moon is a reset point, a new start ~ yet this one is also about completion ~ as the energy transitions between Pisces (end of the zodiac)  and Aries (beginning of the zodiac); we are  still  finishing off some very old cycles and clearing away centuries and layers of conditioning. Not an overnight process, yet this marks a significant turning point.   Spring has spr...

The Full Moon Eclipse is still rippling out ....

Image
Please note: I post this longish blog twice a month for New and Full Moons. If you want shorter daily updates - come visit us on Facebook/Aurumastrology ~~~~~~~~~    The recent Full Moon eclipse early on March 3rd - was in the sign of Virgo was backgrounded by  Saturn (matter) and Neptune (spirit) conjoined on the World Point (0 degrees Aries), an event that has not occurred for thousands of years. The last time they were together (though not on this critical spot) was in 1984 when the Berlin Wall came down. Neptune dissolves structures, systems, realities (Saturn). And currently, Mercury, ruler of this eclipse, is retrograde.  The very fabric of reality is shifting under our feet.   The future feels unsure, unstable, uncertain. Welcome to the awakening!  I’m a few days late in writing this ~ but not to worry ~ this eclipse energy will be in the stratosphere for several months to come. And from what i am seeing and hearing, everyone is feeling t...

New Moon /Solar Eclipse in Wild n Wacky Aquarius

Image
A New Moon /Solar eclipse in Aquarius is occurring right now (early Feb 17th) and its effects will ripple out for months.     Aquarius is an unusual sign ~ it is all about individuality and stepping outside the status quo, yet also represents communitie, groups, society. As a fixed air sign ruled by Uranus (modern) and Saturn (traditional), Aquarians are known for being independent, intelligent, forward-thinking, and often unconventional humanitarian thinkers. Yet they can also be rather stubborn. The symbol for Aquarius is  the Water-Bearer (symbolizing the pouring of knowledge/inspiration). It is an air sign (intellect) and known to be somewhat  cool and detached, stubborn, and emotionally distant. Aqaurians are not so comfortable with one to one dynamics yet they excell in groups.  My late mom was a quirky Aquarian (her birthday would have been  yesterday) and although she kept to herself in her later years ~ when we would go out shopping etc she ...

Full Moon Leo: Shine your light

Image
The Full Moon today is shining on us from the wonderful sign of  Leo, with a stellium (several planets) clustering around the Sun opposite in Aquarius. This very potent Full Moon  brings us breakthroughs, creativity, self-expression, and power/bravadoas it calls us to uplift others through your own authentic self-expression.  This Moon brings to a head so much of what occurred in January ~  a very intense month with energetic zaps coming at us from all directions. From solar flares to interstellar comets to the cluster of planets travelling first through Capricorn and now Aqaurius  all bumping into Pluto (the destroyer). A cluster f#ck.  The quality of time ahead in February is equally intense, charged and unpredictable,  with many turning points and major astrological events: Saturn enters Aries, a solar eclipse occurs in Aquarius, and Saturn joins Neptune in Aries on the Aries Point. Uranus (the awakener) will turn direct then enter Gemini (the quick...

New Moon ~ New Moment ~New Choice

Image
 The New Moon in Capricorn this Sunday (Jan 18) offers a deep reset that is rooted in the Capricorn themes of purpose, integrity, and steady action. The symbol for Capricorn is the mountain goat who climbs to precarious mountain tops.  If you have a project to begin or complete, now's the time to do it. Interestingly, this mountain  goat is actually a sea goat with a fishy tail, suggesting that Capricorns are deliciously complex. On one hand Capricorns are tenacious, down-to-earth, very hard-working and very passionate about their life's purpose as they strive for the mountain top. On the other hand - these  goats swim in deep waters and can be incredibly creative and inventive, with many famous artists like David Bowie, Elvis Presley, Dolly Parton, John legend, Jim Carrey (and many more)  a testament to that. While  Capricorns can have a serious, competitive and tenacious side that drives them forward, they often struggle with negativity. With Saturn the h...
