Full Moon Eclipse in Leo: Keep Shining Your Light!

Image
--> On January 31, at 13:28 UT - Moon in Leo opposes  Sun in Aquarius - forming a Full Moon. It is also a lunar eclipse,  as the shadow of the earth comes between the Moon and the Sun  (10:51 - 16:08 UT). This is a Total Eclipse and a  Super-moon  (closer to earth) -  a Blue Moon (2 nd full moon in January) and a Blood Moon (the Moon will go blood red at full eclipse point). There's always so much hype around these labels - I include them here just so you wont think you are missing out!  The best views will be from Australia, Eastern Europe and the North American West Coast, but it will be visible to some degree from all of North America and parts of Europe. This is the second in an eclipse series involving Aquarius and Leo.  In August 2017, a total solar eclipse crossed the middle of North America- cutting a swath through the good ol' US of A. It was followed by a series of natural  disasters across the continent   - hurricanes -

New Moon prt 2 : Fear, Fate and Flexibility

The effects from the Sun and Moon conjunct (together) yesterday in the sign of Capricorn are still rippling out in ever widening circles of energy. This particular  New Moon is a powerful time to plant seeds of intention for the coming year; success is considered more likely overall when you begin new projects and initiate ideas during a New Moon phase, and this is the first one of 2018. In my previous post - I wrote about how the Saturn in Capricorn energy was combining with Jupiter Mars to  help us ‘Get er Done’.  With six planets in the sign of the Goat- action and goal setting has been on the main focus. The stress is on the importance of  laying firm foundations - one brick at a time - with a focus on accountability, responsibility, and discipline.  Wherever the late degrees of Capricorn fall in your chart will show you the area that requires focused intention and planning (see tab at top of webpage labelled 'Houses') It's time to put your house in order.

New Moon - New Choice

Relationship stuff.  Melancholy is part of Saturn's realm.  Feelings have run deep -  be careful not to drown in them. They are gateways to new beginnings.    This New Moon and the following Full Moon eclipse on Jan 31st -  are clear markers of the  shift to a new cycle.  It' s time to begin to move on - a new day is dawning and there is a

--> The Full Moon in Cancer on Jan 1st was all about getting in touch with our emotional body. That means getting out of our heads and into our hearts. Self nurturing is the key to inner harmony. No need to feel anxious about setting resolutions /intentions for 2018 - take your time. Go slow. Better to be really sure of what you want to put out there.  Because ‘out there’ comes from ‘in here’. “As within - so without… “   With a New Moon Jan 17th - and a Full Lunar / Blue Moon eclipse at the end of January (31st) - things are still percolating. It's important to  really feel our way into the coming year. Go for a walk.  Do some journalling. Draw a tarot card (or two or three). Make a collage - or an Art n Soul Collage card  (see tab at top).  Whatever helps you tune into your receptivity. Things are shifting gears this year - with four majour planets  changing  signs and/or direction (Uranus is now moving direct). We will be gradually ent

In the Light of the Silvery Moon : 2018 Here we come!

Welcome to 2018!  Monday's Full Moon in Cancer has blasted us into a fabulous New Year, which promises to bring  us some positive grounding after a highly charged and deeply unsettling year.    We will move from a dominance of Yang energy - Fire (action, adventure, inspiration ) and Air (thinking, analyzing) into the yin, receptive qualities of the Earth and Water (receptive, grounding, stabilizing).   Taurus (earth)  begins by containing and grounding the highly volatile and unsettled energy of Uranus, while Saturn  in its home sign of Capricorn will help provide more practical and pragmatic earth energy. Moving from Yang to Yin means a shift from outer oriented activity to inner entered receptivity. It's time to move from out of our head - and into our heart! That doesn't mean passivity. Mars (action, aggression) joined with Jupiter today  is full of vim and vigour and enthusiasm.  This is an excellent time to begin a project, focus forwar
