"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

Scorpio Full Moon

   The Full Moon in Scorpio can bring up deep passions or hidden insecurities. As Mars and Pluto are considered co-rulers of this intense water sign, anger or jealousy could get the better of some people now.
This place in the lunar cycle shows us what we feel about our progress since the New Moon. It can enlighten us and bring a sense of fulfillment if we have been progressing effectively. Otherwise, if we've been held back by negative emotions or a lack of self-worth, we may be unable to throw off old reactions and fruitless patterns. 

   Try not to beat yourself up or let your buttons get pushed because of some past slight. Instead, reassess your own behavior and see where you can make a change for the better. Scorpio is the sign of powerful feelings, persistence and determination, which when harnessed in partnership, can bring great rewards... if both parties get to have input and can let go of their suspicions.

   The Full Moon chart shows a need for honoring the individual within the context of relationship, allowing each to have their own freedom of expression. Communication can go deeper now and gains can be made for a more solid understanding of each others' needs, given some effort on the part of both parties.

   Mundanely, some leaders will continue to jab at each other and let their personal desires rule their thoughts. Perhaps, the world will tire of these ineffective games and new patterns can be instituted with help from a Venus/Mars sextile, but that just might be wishful thinking... thanks to a Jupiter square to Neptune! I still like to think positively and employ the power of prayer. It's better than being suspicious and expecting the worst all the time.

   Remember, while keeping your head in the stars and your feet on the ground, to let Love rule~

Taurus New Moon

   The Sun and Moon came together tonight at 6:45 pm in the 14th degree of Taurus ,the Fixed Earth sign. This powerful Moon begins a lunar phase of opportunity to use our resources in a productive manner that will bode well in the coming months. It is also the first time in 84 years that the revolutionary energy of Uranus has been in Taurus, so in a way, this New Moon is getting a dose of  the disruptive, yet exciting affects of awakening!

   Uranus brings sudden change through the disruption of outmoded forms, destroying stuck influences in order to make space for new attitudes or paradigms. We must let go of the old for the new to come in, however uncertain we may be. Resistance only prolongs the process and makes adapting harder.

   So, this new lunar cycle is here to remind us that we are trying to re-stabilize our resources, our values and/or, our security. If it hasn't been working for us, why would we want to remain stuck in something just because it's the status quo? Like it's symbol, the Bull, Taurus can get into a long-term rut. Change comes when the endurance of earth is challenged by the electrical impulses of original ideas, rebellion and freedom, moving us forward toward a more altruistic future.

   In the New Moon chart, Saturn, representing necessity, and Neptune, spiritual guidance, work together harmoniously to support our efforts, even though Saturn is about limitations and Neptune knows no boundaries! Occasionally, these two archetypal  energies align in a beneficial aspect to allow insight as to how to build a new/better foundation. The confusion apparent now can lead to the stepping stones of our future if we are receptive to the subtle, psychic impressions flowing around us.

   The "Messenger of The Gods, Mercury, joins the Sun and Uranus in Taurus on the 6th, where he'll remain for two weeks, before moving into his own sign, Gemini on the 21st. When Mercury conjuncts Uranus on the 8th, ingenious ideas of an intuitive nature, combined with erratic behaviors, can rise to higher levels of consciousness and help shake us loose from constricting thought patterns. Once in Gemini, Mercury will want to interact with peers and share progressive thoughts while brainstorming new pathways. 

   Remember, even though the way forward isn't completely clear, if you keep your head in the stars and your feet on the ground, and trust your intuition and divine guidance you'll probably end up right where you need to be.
