"We are born at a given moment, in a given place, and like vintage years of wine, we have the qualities of the year and the season of which we are born. Astrology does not lay claim to anything more." - Carl Gustav Jung

A Productive Scorpio Full Moon

   Tonight, at 8:59pm, the Full Moon in Scorpio opposes the Sun at 10 degrees of Taurus. These Fixed signs of the zodiac are known for their creative abilities: manifesting resources in Taurus and co-creating deeper relationships in Scorpio. Since Scorpio is a Water sign and the Moon is all about feelings, things could get intense. Avoiding aggressive, moody people is a must, as well as staying away from suspicions and jealousy! On the other hand, the depth offered by the Scorpio Moon can help reveal hidden assets, skills or talents necessary for moving ahead with a joint project.

   Scorpio is also the sign on the ascendant for this chart, making the co-rulers, aggressive Mars and power-hungry Pluto, quite important players in any unfolding drama. Interestingly enough, these two rabble-rousers are hanging out with each other and only aspecting one other planet - Venus (love and/or money) in a difficult pattern known as a sesquiquadrate. This configuration has to do with the formation of a relationship between the two planetary bodies involved that results in a crisis requiring definitive action. So, ask yourself, did I just take on too much debt? What are you promising that you can't come through with? It's time to make a plan of action (Mars) to turn things around (Pluto).

   There are several really welcoming things going on at this Full Moon that will enlighten us if we look honestly at our role in what's happening.  The first thing is the Moon's conjunction with Jupiter in Scorpio, enhancing our kindness quotient and ability to be positive. The second is the Moon's sextile with Saturn, helping us care for those we have responsibilities to. Saturn represents authority figures and whether we're being one or answering to one right now, we had better own it! As ruler of the pragmatic Earth sign Capricorn, Saturn says use your resources wisely, take one step at a time and be patient... you will see progress!

   There is so much going on behind the scenes, literally and figuratively, that's it's hard to make definitive plans right now. However, it's very important to know who you are aligned with, what your common goals are and what the next step is. I haven't seen a chart like this one in a long time, with so many aspect patterns, including a Grand Square pulling in all the Fixed signs, a Grand Triangle in Earth signs, morphing into a Kite pattern via sextiles to tonight's Full Moon in watery Scorpio, and a Yod, otherwise known as a Finger of God, that asks you to not over-identify with the group and instead to clarify your own course of direction. Allow, observe and be willing to take action when you see a clear path ahead.

   In the meantime, say little, be kind to one another and remember to keep your head in the stars and your feet on the ground.
