Sagittarius New Moon
Welcome to my favorite New Moon! Okay, so it is right after my birthday and there are five planets currently in Sagittarius, but I do believe that everyone ought to be excited about this year's Sag New Moon. The synergy of the inner/Moon and the outer/Sun coming together in forward-looking Sagittarius lets us sow seeds of intention like never before. What do you really want to manifest?! Think it, see it, say it and feel it and you hold your future in your hands.
As the optimistic and fiery sign of the zodiac, the home of the archer brings faith and hope to a beleagured world. Seekers after knowledge and defenders of integrity, Sagittarians understand the necessity of looking ahead with a trusting heart and an open mind. Not only are the Sun and Moon aligned in Sagittarius, so too are Mercury, Venus and Saturn. Be mindful of your thoughts and their power to create what you desire... another way to say that is be careful what you wish for!
Two things happen this week that give added weight to this Moon. First, Saturn is leaving Sagittarius after 3 years, on Tuesday, Dec. 19th. and moving into Capricorn, prior to the Sun moving into Capricorn at the Winter Solstice on the 21st. All the soul searching honesty it took to get here needs to be acknowledged, before continuing the journey forward the future. Imagine you're standing at a threshold and look behind you to see the arduous work leading up to this point. Then turn and face the future and the hard work Saturn in Capricorn will demand over the next three years.
All the planets in Sagittarius in the New Moon chart also align harmoniously with rebellious Uranus. Revolutionary and creative ideas facilitate spiritual answers to seeming roadblocks. Be brave, do the right thing and commit to making a difference in your life, your community and your world. After all, someone once said... the truth shall set you free! Be the truth and the light of the shining example for those closest to you that they may be empowered in their own lives.
Remember, keep your head in the stars and your feet on the ground... and may the force be with you~

Gemini Full Moon
Welcome to a Full Moon of conversations, possibilities and changing plans! With the Moon in airy Gemini, ruled by Mercury, the mood is light-hearted and sociable. However, Mercury goes retrograde just a few hours before the exact lunar opposition to the Sun, and that can cause confusion, especially if plans aren't coming together smoothly or decisions need to be made now. There is more to this Full Moon than that, but first a reminder of how to handle the infamous Mercury retrograde!
Many people don't understand the best way to deal with Mercury Retrograde, and that is to think of everything as research for the final decision that can come in a few weeks. Yes, it's maddening to have to put plans on hold or have a computer or a car break down during this 3&1/2 week time frame, especially if you have to deal with it now. Sometimes, the need for repair or replacement comes now, after the initial item was purchased during a previous retrograde phase. This insight into the cycle can be good to remember for future acquisitions... research now, buy later!
The Moon today is indeed busy, forming a couple of difficult aspects to ebullient Jupiter and artsy Neptune. There's a tendency to do too much with the expansiveness of our largest planet involved with the mood of the public. Personal feelings can lead to depression or confusion under Neptune's hazy influence today. Avoiding mood-altering substances and definitely carve out some time for peace and quiet for yourself. A walk on the beach or some yoga stretches and a meditation are soothing to the soul and a preferred way of dealing with any frustrations that arise .
The most stabilizing aspect in this Full Moon chart is the conjunction of Mercury to business-like Saturn. The mind is focused on what you want to achieve and if you look back at the goals you made earlier this year and assess how you're doing with putting them into motion, this can be a good day for future achievements. Saturn will be leaving Sagittarius after three and a half years of focusing on the future, for his own sign - Capricorn, on December 19th, the day after the next New Moon. We are in the winding up period of setting goals and the hard work begins once Saturn enters his own sign for the next few years. Seriousness of intention is what it's all about now; if you want to achieve your goals, roll up your sleeves and get to work!
Both Mercury and Saturn are in a harmonious dance with the revolutionary planet Uranus, putting new ideas, innovations and excitement on the table. Be willing to express those ideas that seem ahead of their time and share them with others because they may hold the key for a better future for all involved. Saturn's ability to research and use resources, melds with innovation in a positively creative partnership now. You can get where you want to go if you can express your view of the future and offer a couple of steps for beginning the journey. Patience is involved.
As always, remember to keep your head in the stars and your feet on the ground~
