Cancer Full Moon ♥

There is this sense of heightened emotions bubbling under this final Full Moon of the year.

It seems that whatever emotional weight we have carried may feel extra heavy, and in this heaviness, it may crash to the shore like a wave, drowning us in its weight.

Even though this sounds a bit intense, it is actually more cleansing and freeing.

There is this sense that whatever we have been carrying on our backs, whatever weight of the world we have felt on our shoulders, is now being washed away.

The Cancer Full Moon is shining a big bright light onto those who have been wearing a mask and pretending to be people that they are not.

This may be government officials, partners in relationships, friends or those we work with. Deception is revealed and we see the truth once and for all. This is a good time to take off the rose-colored glasses and see things in the light of truth.

The Cancer Full Moon reminds us that there is great potential as we move forward into the new year, and there is no need to take these unhealthy connections with us into 2021.

Cancer is ruled by the Moon, so the Moon shines in its element on this night, big and full for all of us to see. As the Moon returns to its favorite spot in our sky, it is able to express its powers to the fullest.

The Moon represents our emotions, but also what makes us feel safe and secure. It represents our ability to nurture ourselves and to take care of our emotional needs.

So much of our safety and security has been up for evaluation this year. It reminds us that we always have the power to create safety, comfort, love, and strength within ourselves.

The Cancer Full Moon ushers us to look and step within. This is a time to nurture ourselves and to the depths of our very souls.

This is a time to listen to the needs of our bodies, hearts, and our souls. There has been much attention, and even fear, placed on the state of our health this year, so we should all take a moment to honor, nourish, and look after our own well-being.

Flipping back to the start of the year, on January 10, 2020, we also had a Cancer Full Moon, however, this Full Moon was a Lunar Eclipse and its energy was much stronger.

It is interesting that we opened the year with a Cancer Full Moon, and we are now closing the year with a Cancer Full Moon. The difference between then and now however, is that things have softened, the energies are not as strong, there is this gentleness and a time of rest.

Chiron, the wounded healer, is also very active under this Full Moon. It supports this idea of allowing the murky water to settle, rather than trying to interfere or fix things.

Under this final Full Moon of 2020, Chiron works with the energies to remind us that we don’t need to prove ourselves to anyone.

We don’t need to hold the weight of the world on our shoulders. We don’t need to try… we can just be ♥

Where are we over-extending or overreaching in our lives Where are we burning the candle too fast or strong? Where are we all trying too hard?

These areas of our lives can indicate our insecurities. Where we care too much can indicate something deeper that may be worthwhile exploring under the illuminating light of the Moon.

The Cancer Full Moon is also in a harmonious aspect to Uranus, indicating that we may receive some rewards or conclusion for our efforts. Perhaps these come by way of a tangible gift, but perhaps they also come in an intangible way too.

Perhaps our true gift is realising how much we have achieved, how much we have grown, and how much love we have poured into the world.

We very often measure our productivity based on the concrete things we have achieved, but why not measure it on how much we have loved, shown gratitude, and practiced kindness.

The Cancer Full Moon will light the path for the new year. It calls for us to let go of all that is weighing us down and all that feels heavy.

It asks for us to let go of anything we no longer wish to bring with us into this new chapter we are about to begin. It calls for us to let it go, not through struggle or effort but through allowing ourselves to just be.

Let’s all allow the energy of the Cancer Full Moon to soothe us and free us. Allow the energies of the Moon to guide us to our inner home, to our hearts where all is safe, and all is well.

Love and Blessings as we close the year of 2020 ♥

The Great Conjunction ♥

December 21st… To say today has a bit going on is an understatement. We have the Great Conjunction, The Equinox, Summer Solstice and Capricorn Season all happening at once.

I’ll just focus on the Great Conjunction… the Great Conjunction is a rare and very special astrological event that happens every 20 years or so. It involves the meeting of both Jupiter and Saturn at the same degree of the zodiac.

For the last 200 years, the Great Conjunction has occurred almost always in earth signs, but now, on December 21, 2020, both Jupiter and Saturn will align in the air sign of Aquarius.

This Great Conjunction has both planets the closest in a Very Long time and this alignment is called the ‘Christmas Star’ or Star of Bethlehem.

Last seen in 1266 in the Middle Ages, the ‘Christmas Star’ or Star of Bethlehem is a very rare astronomical occurrence.

According to NASA, this event won’t happen again until 2080.

As Jupiter and Saturn align in Aquarius it is going to kickstart a new era. It is also going to usher us deeper into the Age of Aquarius.

There is much debate on when the Age of Aquarius actually begins. Some astrologers believe it has already started; others believe we are still hundreds of years away.

Regardless of when the Age of Aquarius officially begins, it seems this Great Conjunction falling in Aquarius, is a sign that we are about to see many Age of Aquarius themes unfold.

For the last 200 years, as Jupiter and Saturn have been coming together in earth signs, they have shaped and defined the world we currently live in.

Earth energy is very tangible. It is all about building things, creating foundations, using the resources of the Earth, and focusing on material possessions.

Under this Earth energy, we have achieved a lot, but the time has come for a shift back into balance. We need to move away from material possessions, from robbing the Earth of its resources, and away from creating the tangible to creating the intangible.

And that is where the air energy of Aquarius comes into play. Aquarius energy is revolutionary & high-tech. Rather than wanting to create something tangible, Aquarius energy is all about the digital world.

In 2020, we have already seen a huge increase in people using the digital world.

Along with the world becoming more digital, we may also start to see a rise in community-based living.

Rather than looking to big organizations or government, we may instead find the support we need from our own community members. Creating a sense of community may also feel more important or necessary. Fabulous!!!

Aquarius energy can also bring advancements to the medical arena by encouraging alternative healing practices like sound healing, crystal healing, laser technology, and even more digitized healthcare services.

As the sign that rules over humanitarian efforts, we may also see developments surrounding issues such as homelessness, world hunger, and equal rights. Yeah…let’s see that happen!!

Aquarius energy allows us to focus on what is good for the whole. Rather than focusing solely on our own needs and wants, we are able to see that we are all connected and that we all need to come together in order to create a better world.

When this energy is in balance, it allows us to create a more peaceful and compassionate world where we are able to put ourselves in the shoes of others, where we are able to create supportive and loving communities, and where we are able to work together and share common goals.

This is the Age of Aquarius utopia that has been sung about and talked about for decades. This is the better life we can envisage for ourselves, where we are all honored for our individual selves but then also connected and working together as a whole and for the greater good.

Like with all things, there is a dark side to this energy too that we have to be mindful to avoid.

When not in balance, this energy can make us ignore the beliefs of others and fall into “sheep” mentality. Rather than being able to think for ourselves, we are told what to believe and have to follow the group in order to feel accepted.

We need to be mindful of not allowing our own individual spark to be lost in trying to serve others and our community. We need to make sure we are acting from a place of truth and authenticity, or we will find that society becomes based on ideas of a single few rather than the collective.

We have 200 years to find this balance, as both Jupiter and Saturn will travel through predominantly air signs for this next cycle.

We should all embrace the energies of this cycle by thinking about where we have been too attached to material possessions.

This is a time for us to remember the power of our thoughts and that our thoughts are powerful seeds of creation.

When we are in a place where we feel aligned and in an authentic headspace, we are automatically attracting whatever is best for us.

Rather than trying to manifest our goals, we should instead focus on bringing ourselves into a state of complete alignment. From this place, our goals and whatever we wish to manifest comes naturally.

Jupiter is the planet associated with abundance and expansion. Its energy is naturally optimistic and allows us to see possibilities and potentials.

Jupiter expands whatever it touches, allowing us to welcome abundance and to see things with a greater clarity. Jupiter is considered to be the lucky planet and the one that brings us our natural gifts and rewards in this life.

Saturn in many ways is seen as the opposite, however this is a bit of mistaken identity. Saturn is considered a harsh planet that likes to impose rules and restrictions.

It wants us to set boundaries and may make us feel held back and even oppressed. Its energy is similar to that of a strict teacher, always wanting us to follow the rules, work hard, and scolding us when we don’t.

However, Saturn is also where we do our most growing and most learning.

It is through Saturn that we are able to mature, to become wiser, and to find our true inner strength and power.

Both Jupiter and Saturn coming together in this conjunction is like the Lord of Karma meeting the planet of expansion. Here, Jupiter is able to shine a light on all of our Saturn lessons. It is able to soften them, make us see them with more clarity, but also in many ways, expand them.

As the Jupiter Saturn conjunction is so pivotal, this energy affects us on a global level too. It is almost like Earth is waking up to its karma. In many ways, our entire planet is advancing to a new level and looking for debts to be paid.

Whatever our collective Earth karma is, this Great Conjunction has arrived to set things into balance.

On a global level, whatever needs to be repaid will have to be repaid. Whatever is owed will have to be given.

On deeper spiritual levels, this alignment of Jupiter and Saturn indicates a rise in consciousness for the planet, where we are able to see with more clarity the karmic energy of the globe, and what we can do to create more balance.

It is also interesting to note that both Jupiter and Saturn will come together at zero degrees of Aquarius, which is a highly charged point of any zodiac sign.

0 degrees represents infinite potential and possibilities. It represents a time where all things are possible, and a new foundation is opening.

On this day, it will feel like Earth is moving through a portal of energy where it will be rebirthed and hold millions of new possibilities for all of us.

This is very fertile energy, which indicates new beginnings on a grand scale. Earth will never be the same again and as beings of this Earth, we will have no choice but to adapt and embrace this new chapter that is on offer to us.

The energy of the Great Conjunction will feel most powerful for the next few weeks. Then it will fade into the background of our lives, where it will continue to influence us most strongly for the coming years.

Love and Blessings xo ♥♥♥

Sun aligns with the Galactic Centre ♥

Friday December 18th our Sun will align with the Galactic Center. The center of our galaxy is believed to sit at about 27 degrees of Sagittarius.

As the Sun aligns on this position of the zodiac, we experience galactic, high-frequency energy beaming down to Earth. This high vibrational energy can be used for manifestation work, alchemy, ritual work, and more!

The Galactic Center is a source of light. Light is Knowledge. It is universal, the source of all life and creation. It is the sustaining and animating energy of the universe.

Just as our planet orbits around the sun, our solar system orbits around the center of the galaxy. Our Sun has a Sun. Which is known as the Central Sun or the Great Central Sun, The Spiritual Sun.

Our Sun gets its light and energy from the core of the galaxy. The light that streams from this core, flows out of the spiral arms of the galaxy, and is rebroadcast through every star that lives in that arm of the galaxy, including our Sun.

The Code of Life appears in the human body, in the musical scale, in the colors of the rainbow spectrum. These source codes animate the universe. Source codes spiral into existence. They form shapes and flows. The same way our human energy body distributes prana through the central channel to the nadis, via the spiral vortexes of the chakras to each cell.

Prana is the force and flow of life. The flow of prana though our nadis (channels, streams) governs the health and vitality of our body and mind.
This core galactic center is an emanation of the core/center/creation point of the universe.

It is an energy well we can each connect to both as a “refueling station” for the life-force energy in the body and as a source of light and information, inspiration. And then use these codes, this info to spark our own inner creator self.

In this alignment corridor of December, we get an amplification and multiplication of the message, the signal strength increases, and we get to hear more clearly the light encoded messages of connection, light and life – the song of the universe. So, in this alignment we get a “double dose” of light and energy – from both the sun and the galactic core.

These alignments offer unique opportunities to receive certain light codes and bundles of photons and information. We tune our sensitivity to be able to receive these codes and hear the messages coming our way from the stars. We have been at this task of fine tuning awareness and training for years and many of us for lifetimes.

This is a great time to take some time to sit quietly with ourselves and listen. Make a connection to our personal embodied core (our soul center, our solar plexus).

Make a connection to the crystalline core of the Earth. Make a connection to the Sun. Create a column of light connecting these cores and sit or stand within it.

Then connect to the core of the Milky Way, the Galactic Center. Picture it in your mind, check out images of space and other galaxies.

I plan to gift myself with some time in quiet, in receptive mode. Under the night time sky. Watching the stars. Under the daytime sky, watching the clouds. At sunset and sunrise, watching the colors and listening to the messages.

Love and Blessings xo ♥

New Moon Solar Eclipse ♥

Monday December 14^th we have a Total New Moon Solar Eclipse falling in the Fire sign of Sagittarius

This Total Solar Eclipse brings a burst of fresh energy, indicating new beginnings but also Great change. The full extent of these new beginnings or changes may not be realised straight away. There is a certain element of things being hidden or not fully exposed, but whatever seeds are planted on this day will eventually rise, strong and tall.

The Sagittarius New Moon Solar Eclipse + the upcoming Grand Cross is the highest vibrational energetic New Moon to bring 2020 to a close.

As we head toward both the Galactic Alignment on December 19, followed by the The Great Conjunction on December 22nd, I feel that this Solar Eclipse New Moon + Grand Cross is igniting a brilliant light filled energy of a Great Awakening.

This powerful New Moon will Light us all up from the inside out bringing much potential for growth

New Moons are all about setting intentions for the forthcoming cycle… how perfect then that our last New Moon for the year falls in the forward thinking sign of Sagittarius. And that our New Moon is also being amplified through a Grand Cross & Total Solar Eclipse.

Unfortunately, we in Oz wont have the chance to views the Eclipse but it’s energy will be felt globally.

The total Solar Eclipse is visible from parts of Chile and Argentina in the afternoon. Some locations in southern South America, south-west Africa, and Antarctica will see the partial phase of this South American total solar eclipse, if the weather permits.

If you want to sus out if you can view it follow this link > Total Solar Eclipse on 14 December 2020 (timeanddate.com)

The Sagittarius New Moon feels so very alive, abounding with Joy, and enthusiastically refreshing in her exuberance. A welcome ray of Solar-Lunar-Light after a year that has been quite challenging.

She will demand of us to Step up. To break free of the illusion. To envision a more awakened experience of heart & soul for the year ahead. A guiding light of possibility & purpose over the coming cycle.

2020 came with 6 eclipses, which is an unusually high amount. 4 were lunar eclipses though, so they just added on to the intense energy of this year. We finalise the year eclipse-wise with a Solar eclipse being in Sagittarius which is a much more optimistic, positive, forward-thinking eclipse. We can look at things with a brighter view and believe in what’s possible.

There may be more opportunities to pursue, bigger ideas to work on, and we want to expand, explore, and have new experiences. We can focus on being free to do what we want, when we want, and break out from something that has boxed us in for too long. We can get excited and focus on what we really believe in.

This Eclipse comes just a few days before both Jupiter and Saturn move into changeable Aquarius, so this is big energy for mid-December! It’s all about the future, what’s possible, and what new ventures we can embark on.

There is so much fresh energy on offer for us under this Eclipse. It brings the promise of brand new beginnings, fresh starts, and the opportunity to set wheels into motion.

The strong, abundant energy flowing around this Eclipse may also bring some gifts and rewards our way. This will be extra amplified by Saturn, who a few days later on December 17, will leave Capricorn where it has been for the last 2.5 years, for the sign of Aquarius.

It is said that whenever Saturn leaves one zodiac sign for another, we are gifted and rewarded for all of the hard work we have achieved.

The energy of the Solar Eclipse has the power to amplify these gifts and rewards, so think about where you have felt most challenged and where you have done the most growth, and then stay open to any gifts and rewards that may be illuminated for you under this energy.

The Sagittarius Solar Eclipse falls at 23-24 degrees of Sagittarius, which is also just a couple of degrees shy of the Galactic Center.

The Galactic Center is believed to be the center of our Universe and sits at about 27 degrees of Sagittarius. This is a highly sensitive degree of the zodiac and indicates strong cosmic activations.

Under the light of this Eclipse, we may notice our frequency lifted and our consciousness ascending. We may begin to become aware of growing pains or ascension symptoms, similar to flu like symptoms and lethargy. We may even find ourselves tapping into the wisdom of our intuition, spirit guides, and higher self with greater ease.

The Sabian Symbol for this Solar Eclipse, which falls between 23-24 degrees of Sagittarius is – a Blue Bird standing at the entrance to a house.

The idea of this bluebird standing at the door is a happy one. What a treat it would be to see a bright bluebird waiting at our door! It would feel like a special gift or a loving sign from the Universe.

However, the Bluebird could also be missed. We may be too busy on our phone, bustling about for Christmas coming, caught up with the thoughts in our minds or how many things we have to get done, that we miss the bluebird altogether.

And this energy is carried through the Solar Eclipse as well. It offers new beginnings; it offers signs and gifts from the Universe- but will we be open to see them? Will we be open to see the bluebird sitting at our door? This is the time to un plug and connect with nature, listen and feel the signs of these gifts!

The Universe is always offering things to us, but we have to be in an open state to notice and receive these offerings too.

The fastest way to get into a state of receiving is to shift our mindset, and the easiest way to do that is to focus on abundance, appreciation, and gratitude as often as we can.

When we shift out of complaining, wishing things were different, or self-limiting thinking, and open instead to abundance, we open the door to not just seeing the offering of the bluebird, but all that we have to offer too.

Giving from the pureness of our hearts is also another way to open to receiving.

Mercury, the “messenger of the Gods” is also very active under this Eclipse. Mercury rules over communication and our mind.

Under this Eclipse, our powers to create and draw things to us are amplified, so this is a time to pay attention to what we are choosing to focus on and think about.

What we think about expands, and this is doubly true under the power of this Eclipse.

While we do have to be mindful of our thought processes on this day, it is also important to remember that being true to ourselves is what we should aim for.

The Sagittarius Solar Eclipse beckons us to rise up and observe the many blessings that have been hidden in the shadows. As we bring our blessings into the light, it also shines a spotlight on our relationship with the Universe.

Overall, the Sagittarius Solar Eclipse carries some of the brightest energy we have experienced all year.

This is a time to stay open to the light and be grateful. Yes 2020 has been challenging but it has also made us look & go back to the important things in life. What is important, what do we all really need has been the lesson this year.

It has been an epic year of reset & reevaluating. Sure, parts of it Really sucked but hasn’t life simplified? Have we reassessed the beauty of family and our planet? YES…Do we all need to have everything all the time? No!

I have missed seeing my family big time, especially my adult children & my heart broke for my tween ager missing her friends during lock down. Online schooling was very challenging & shutting my business down for months was financially hard… but we survived & I have more appreciation for the simple things in life.

All of us have a story of 2020 & I personally feel this year has had many positives amongst the restrictions and loss of freedom. We have Reset!

SO…. Lets’ look out for bluebirds. Listen to our own inner voices and keep our hearts pointed in the direction we wish to head!!

♥ 12:12 Gateway ♥

12:12 Gateway ~ Saturday the 12th of the 12th we enter the final Gateway of this transformational year. The beginnings of a powerful time on Earth.

We are currently traveling the Eclipse corridor as we enter the 12:12 Gateway and the upcoming total Solar Eclipse at 23° Sagittarius on December 14th. The entire year has been preparing us for these powerful cosmic events aligned with the zero point Source field located at the galactic center at 26° Sagittarius. We are experiencing year-end gateways that initiate a zero point reset for rapid transformation.

2020 has been a year for the history books, a year so revealing we can no longer look away. Many of us may be experiencing energy clearing on multiple levels, as the Higher Self prepares the physical plane for the coming shifts. Flu like symptoms, body fatigue & disturbed sleep are just a few physical symptoms of energy clearing. Existing in zero point energy is the eternal Now Moment, the stillness between past and future, matter and antimatter.

The final Gateway of this transformational year has taken us into the depths of our soul for healing and alchemizing fear, and our primal survival instincts of safety and security in order to surrender more and more to the universal flow.

This gateway offers us rapid spiritual growth and soul alignment carrying the codes of unity consciousness and enlightenment. We are in the beginning stages of monumental change and huge shifts on Earth, and we are continually upgrading and raising our vibration and preparing for this time.

This is the Awakening so many have been waiting for, the true unveiling of all illusion/delusion is being illuminated in divine truth.

12:21 Gateway will open to the Great Central Sun at the galactic center, located at 26° Sagittarius. 12:12 is the sacred day of attunement with all 12 dimensions of our Universe….and ignites the sacred geometry of Union!

12:12 is a powerful angel number that indicates wholeness and completion. It is also a number code to help activate our light body. When our light body is activated, we can gain a new understanding of the dimension of time, and traveling to higher realms, whether astrally or in dreams is much easier.

The angelic number sequence of 12:12 is a divine message that we are on the cusp of significant change. While the gateway is open, the Angels are supporting all of us in manifesting our dreams, goals and finding our divine mission.

Love and Blessings xo ♥

Summer Eclipse Season ♥

We are currently moving through the gateway for the upcoming Summer Eclipse season.

The first Eclipse falls at the end of the month November 30^th as a Partial Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Gemini. Lunar Eclipses typically bring about endings. They help us to release things from our lives that are no longer aligned with where we are heading.

While Eclipses can be powerful, there is some softer energy around this one that will inspire us to see a new road ahead.

We have just come out of a period of many retrogrades and heavy energy that may be making us feel sluggish and uncertain. There is this feeling that so many things are changing, but perhaps it is not yet clear what these changes are going to look like or what they are going to bring.

As we enter Sagittarius Season this weekend 21^st/22^nd we will begin the shift from the energy of water to fire and feel brighter and lighter than many of us have been feeling.

Sagittarius is represented by a Centaur pointing its arrow high into the starry night sky. If we trace the direction of its arrow, we can see that the Centaur is pointing directly to the star Antares, which is located in the constellation of Scorpio and is known as the “heart of the Scorpion”.

Antares is a star associated with the deep pains of the heart. It can bring destruction and death, but also the chance of a grand rebirth that is led by the heart

Neptune turns direct on the 29^th just before the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse leaving only one planet (Uranus) in retrograde! This is the first time in months that we have had so few planets in retrograde. Things are going to feel like they are moving forward nicely.

Where we had felt confused and foggy, we will now start seeing things with a newfound sense of clarity. Neptune turning direct may also help us get clearer about our dreams and goals and what we wish to create in our lives moving forward. If there have been any illusions, this is a time where we may see a new truth revealed.

Love and Blessings ♥♥♥

Taurian Blue Full Moon ♥

Saturday October 31st, we have a Full Moon falling in the Earth sign of Taurus. Being the second Full Moon of the month, it will be considered a Blue Moon.

Having two Full Moons within the same calendar month indicates an overall theme of release, and it seems there is a lot unraveling under the power of this Taurian Blue Moon.

The Taurus Blue Moon also happens to be a Micromoon, which means it is further away from Earth than usual. The Moon may appear less bright and look smaller in the night sky.

Micromoons are steeped in superstition and are believed to bring bad weather and natural disasters. Even though the Moon is further away from Earth, Micromoons are believed to have a greater influence on our moods.

Adding to the multifaceted Blue Moon influences it also falls on the potent and magical day observed in the Northern Hemisphere as the celebration of Samhain, which is where Halloween gets its roots. Across many cultures, this time of year is also believed to be when the veil between dimensions is at its thinnest.

October 31st is also linked to the Day of the Dead or Día de los Muertos, which is commonly celebrated in Mexico and Central America, and originated from the time of the Aztecs.

Similarly, to the pagan traditions of Samhain, it is believed that on this night, the veil between the living and the dead is thinnest. With the veil between dimensions thin, it is easier for our loved ones to return to Earth and for us to make contact with them.

For us in the Southern Hemisphere, traditionally October 31st begins the Celtic Festival of Beltane. Many celebrate Samhain regardless & there are similarities in both of the pagan celebrations. For the Blue Full Moon both of the festivals energies will be at play.

The Taurian Blue Moons astrology is quite rare for many reasons but the almost exactly conjunction to Uranus also in Taurus brings some funky extra energy into the mix. With the Blue Moon extremely close to Uranus, the planet of change and revolution, we can see unexpected change and uncertainty that may cause anxiety, impatience, and an inability to relax.

This is an extremely powerful and very disruptive influence which we will ride for the next two weeks. Whenever the Moon and Uranus come together, there is always the chance that some shocking information could come to the surface. We may also experience heightened emotions, making it easier to fall victim to our triggers.

While we may feel pulled in many directions under this energy, we can also connect to the earthy, grounded stability that Taurus can offer to us. Grounding ourselves in nature is always a good thing but during this amped up Taurian Blue Moon… it is almost vital.

We really will need to get out in nature, dig our feet into the Earth/Sand, have a swim and walk through the lush wonder of the forests, ocean, creeks and connect with the land.

Some Astrologers are linking the impulsive and unpredictable nature of the Blue Moon with the US presidential election falling a few days after on November 3rd, predicting there will be consequences of this erratic energy that Uranus is bringing through.

Added to that, Mercury stationary direct and square Saturn on that same day is increasing the risk of delays, frustration, and disagreement. Civil unrest, violence, and rebellion are possible.

Full Moons are always powerful points of completion and letting go, but we may find that this Full Blue Moon doesn’t bring the release we are looking for.

While it may stir things and alert us of what needs to be released in our lives, it may lack the strength to help us go the distance.

Even though we may want to be done with something, it looks like we may find ourselves hanging on a little longer than we would have liked.

It may take until the next Full Moon in November, which just so happens to be an Eclipse, for us to take the plunge and finally say goodbye to whatever it is that we wish to release.

As mentioned, this Blue Moon falls on a very auspicious night, where the veil between dimensions is considered to be at its thinnest.

On a positive level, even the planetary influence of Uranus can help us to access these higher dimensions, as Uranus also rules over the awakening of our life force or kundalini energy.

If you wish you can connect to the awakening by visualizing your chakras awakening one by one. See them shining like bright balls of rainbow light. See them opening and connecting you to your higher self and to the realms above.

If you have a loved one that has crossed over, on this night say a special prayer, or do something to remind you of them. Eat their favorite food or light a candle in their name.

And beyond reaching out to passed loved ones, make time to acknowledge the “deaths” both great and small in your life.

There are so many things that have “died” this year, so honor the ones that matter most to you, even if they are a little painful.

Look to nature for guidance, as it is always showing us how it dies and rebirths itself again and again.

So, while this Blue Moon carries some volatility, it also reminds us to get grounded in our being, so we can reach into the realms unknown.

We should honor the deaths we have faced and know that all things lost eventually come around again. It is the law of the Universe that nothing is ever destroyed, only reborn.

Love and Blessings for the Taurian Blue Full Moon ♥♥♥

Libran Super New Moon ♥

Saturday the 17th of October, we have a New Moon falling in the Air sign of Libra. This New Moon is also a Super Moon and the closest one to Earth for the year. The Super New Moon in Libra also occurs during the Arcturian Alignment. Even though this is the dark Moon phase, as being a Super New Moon, we are going to feel the lunar energies very strongly.

The pull of the Moon will be drawing us inward and into the deeper depths of our soul. This is quite an intense New Moon as it is harshly aspect by the three most challenging planets: Mars, Saturn, and Pluto. This is a time of shadow work and balancing the light.

Libra is depicted as the scales, the scales of balance, fairness, and justice, and these are qualities we are going to need to hold in mind under the intense energies this New Moon brings.

There is some dense, heated energy surrounding this Libra Super New Moon. It feels quite harsh, but it also has a magical vibe hidden in the layers. This twist of magic comes from the alignment with two very fortunate stars. One of them being the fixed star Arcturus. So, there is some possibility of achievement and success if this highly competitive New Moon energy is channeled into hard work and determination.

This New Moon may stir some troubles for us or bring some pain points to the surface of our heart. It may make us feel a little heavy or lethargic and add to the confusion or uncertainty we may already be feeling.

With the three most challenging planets (Mars, Saturn, and Pluto) harshly aspected to the Super New Moon we can have an eruptive vibration around anger, resentment, frustration, the abuse of power and authority.

There is an energetic ruthless quest for power which may result in polarization, extremism, conflict, and violence. Interestingly the US presidential election on November 3 falls within this Moon phase.

Libra energy can also touch on our relationships and reveal to us where things may be out of balance.

If we have been giving too much of ourselves away, if we have been acting for the sake of others rather than ourselves, the Libran Super New Moon may help us all to return to ourselves and to find a new way to balance the giving and receiving in life on all levels.

If anyone is dealing with a challenging relationship, this New Moon may bring things to a head. A new strategy may have to be taken, but first, allow the dust to settle. There is no point in running into a dust storm as you cant see!

We need to remember that we can’t always have it all figured out in one go, as this New Moon calls for patience, reflection, and a lot of inner work.

New Moons are always a time of new beginnings, and while we may feel this in the air, we may also feel a growing sense of confusion about how to move forward.

This confusion is amplified by the fact that both Mars and Mercury are still in retrograde at the time of the Super New Moon.

When the world outside us feels confusing and unsure, there are always things we can feel certain about, and those are the things that we should keep in our focus.

Having both these planets in retrograde at the same time is a challenging combination and may make us feel like we are taking steps backward not forward!

It can also add to miscommunications, so we need to be mindful of this during any important conversations.

While this feels like a challenging cycle for us under this New Moon, know that it is also powerful for spiritual awakenings and intuitive work.

If we can open to the energies, there is a chance to receive some new spiritual insights and understandings. Connecting with our spirit guides and angels becomes a little easier too.

Another way we can tap into this energy on offer is through creative projects, especially ones that require us to make something with our hands. Getting creative is always a great expression of ourselves and adds a calming grounding experience.

There are some very strong aspects to the Libran Super New as outlined below.

New Moon opposite Mars ~ creates irritability, hostility, jealousy, aggression, impulsiveness, and sexual tension. It makes us more willful, assertive, and competitive in achieving our strongest desires.

But strong resistance and aggressive responses are likely if we are too forceful in trying to get our own way. Patience, tactics, and a more subtle approach are required to succeed. Underhand tactics like trickery or passive-aggressiveness will not work.

The key to dealing with any arguments or conflict is to be open and honest about our strong desires. Avoid risk-taking and acting rashly. Exercise, sport, and hard physical will release tension from the body.

New Moon square Saturn ~ presents tests and challenges that make it harder to get our own way and reach our goals. Delays, restrictions, deadlines, criticism, and extra responsibilities may damage our self-confidence and leave us feeling weighed down, pessimistic, or depressed. Pressure may come from authority figures, government agencies, or banks.

This is a test of your character. Trying to avoid responsibility or procrastinating would only delay the inevitable and probably make matters worse. We need to strive to meet our responsibilities with patience, determination, persistence, and a strong work ethic. Facing challenges head-on will reduce worry and lead to achievement, satisfaction, and respect.

New Moon square Pluto ~ increases our need to be in control but can also lead to ego conflicts with powerful people or authority figures. A crisis or conflict could feel intense and could lead to obsessions, possessiveness, or other extreme behavior.

Deeply buried fears may be exposed involving death, loss of control, abuse, or persecution. Gaining conscious awareness of fears and controlling behavior will make us feel less threatened and help us to work through the journey. This transformation will give a greater sense of inner power. Then it can be channeled into success through ambition and hard work.

Mars square Pluto ~ intensifies our passionate desires and our need to be in control. A ruthless quest for power and success can make others feel threatened and lead to power struggles and aggressive reactions. Or others may try to dominate or control us. Try to avoid resentment, provocation, and subversive tactics.

The Libran Super New Moon is a powerful one, it’s feisty, with a splash of magic & transformation thrown into the mix… This is a time to be gentle with ourselves, do the shadow work and remember, that the darkest nights often lead to the brightest Sunrises!

Love and Blessings ♥♥♥

Mars Retrograde 2020

Mars has begun his retrograde journey through the underworld. Mars is journeying through Aries for the first time since 1988 and won’t repeat this rite of passage until 2067.

Now at his closest to the Earth, the Fire God will re-activate and revisit all the transformative and powerful zodiac alignments of 2020, and light them up one more time.

This year has brought some life-changing astrological alignments, so having Mars wake everything up and trigger all we have been through, is definitely going to feel intense.

Mars, the robust and masculine of all our planets. Bowing to its violent and brave character, in ancient times people worshipped Mars in the form of War God. When Mars Transit from one sign to another, it brings a great amount of change in the lives of one and all.

Following the huge Astrological events like Saturn Retrograde in Capricorn 2020, Jupiter Retrograde in Capricorn 2020, and Mercury Retrograde in Cancer 2020… Mars is all set to draw an impact of its retrograde motion on all of us. As a vivacious, energetic planet, Mars portrays bravery, vibrance, confidence, integrity, positivity, optimism, and strong self-expression.

Mars Retrograde is a time where we have an opportunity to reevaluate our life path and direction.
It is a time where we are encouraged to think about our actions, and whether they are aligned with the life and world we want to create.

As Mars travels through the underworld, we may find ourselves feeling a little lethargic or that we can’t move forward with ease. With Mars journeying retrograde we are also reminded to Rest, Reset and Review. The important 3 R’s of Retrograde.

Mars Retrograde can also bring delays and slow things down to a crawl, but this is really so we can take the much needed time to ensure that what we are wanting to do is in alignment with our true and highest self.

After Mars goes direct on November 13th, we will receive a boost of energy and it will be far easier for us to push forward on the things that we have wanted to do.
We may also find that things we wanted to do have shifted or changed. This is why it’s important to trust in divine timing, especially when we have a planet like Mars in Retrograde.

Trusting in divine timing is also going to be amplified from October 13 to November 3, as Mercury will be in retrograde at the same time.
Having both Mars and Mercury in retrograde together is definitely going to slow things down and make us feel uncertain or confused about what direction to head in.

It is not advisable to make big commitments or life-altering decisions during this period if possible, as this is considered a period of transition.
During a period of transition, we have to wait for the tide to turn in order to see where we are going to end up.

If we try to force a decision, we are likely to find that what we thought we wanted no longer aligns with where we have ended up.
Trusting and listening to our intuition will be extra important during this time, as will focusing on self-care.

Mars Retrograde in Aries is the call to individuate, speak truth to power, including our own!
To know that our body along with our consciousness is the path for our evolution.
A time to redefine how we respond to life’s challenges through a makeover or rebirth of our self-expression in the world.

To leaving behind the ‘roles’, all the settling for, the making nice, the barely breathing and calling it a life.
This is the time to embody our rebellious spirit, our wisdom, gifts and unique qualities.
Be audacious, brave, instinctual, passionate and focused.

This is the time to create whatever causes a revolution in our hearts. This is big turnaround stuff, cracking open the cocoons and pushing up through the Earth.
The next few days are going to be felt at a cellular level, manifesting physically as surges.

Some will feel it stronger than others, know that it is ok, if anyone feels overwhelmed take time to ground and Earth out, however that is achieved for each person.

As both Mars and Jupiter slow to change direction this week, we may feel the influxes literally shake and vibrate the old structures to release collective creations, creating Freedom from old experiences.

Mars Retrograde is a period where everything that 2020 has been about comes to the forefront.
Things need to change, and this Mars Retrograde will be ensuring that everything is up and laid out flat on the table.

During this time on a personal level we need to balance our energy levels. Protect our boundaries. Slow down and listen to our bodies. Be patient, rest and reset. Working with the base chakra helps us to stay grounded. Red Jasper, Black Onyx and Tourmaline. Hematite and Apache Tear crystals come to mind here.

Mars will be triggering the things we have seen play out on the world stage in matters relating to politics, government, power, and control as well. It’s almost like 2020 was always destined to be a year that brought the breakdown and dismantling of darker, denser energies so we can shift the planet into a higher state of consciousness.

Some are saying that we may see a spike in rebellion, uprising and riots may flare up again, protests and infection rates may begin to climb again globally.
Power struggles and exposed corruption may play out as general unrest is in the air, along with fear based attitudes. Bursts of anger and frustration may arise and we need to watch for that as well.

We are reaching the pointy end of the year and with this retro shift Mars is playing out in Aries it may trigger all these again.
Mars Can’t create tension out of nothing, but it Can trigger what is already present so we can clear and release it for good.

All that comes up during this Mars Retrograde are things that need to be exposed so we can shift and change them as a collective.
It all sounds pretty intense and let’s not dance around the edges, it will be for most of us but there is always light.

Without a little slice or a big slice of chaos things can remain stuck, stuck in the norm, accepted as that’s just how it is. So, when we face change, especially chaotic change we can get freaked out, sure! It’s normal, we are human, we are emotional beings.

If we can all just breathe, trust in divine timing, come from our heart spaces, stay grounded yet open to what comes our way we have the opportunity to transform, to raise our own vibrations and the planet like we have yearned for, for a very long time.

Love and Blessings ♥

Leo New Moon ♥

Wednesday the 19th of August we have a New Moon residing in the Fire sign of Leo. This New Moon is also a Black Moon. There are several definitions of a Black Moon. It can be the third New Moon in an astronomical season with four New Moons (as this one is) or the second New Moon in the same calendar month.

A Black New Moon holds potent energy as a time for manifesting new dreams and visions. This Leo New Moon also brings us very strong solar energy.

The Sun has been in its fullest power under the sign of its ruler, Leo, and on this New Moon, it brings a reminder that no matter what happens in life, no matter how dark things may seem, the dependable Sun will always rise again.

The New Moon is the Dark Moon and is a time where we need to tune in to our own inner Sun and light up the parts of ourselves that have been hidden in the shadows.

The Leo New Moon will activate a rising of darkness so it can be cleansed and released for good. Sometimes, the shadows must be exposed before they can return to the light.

With the exposure of the dark we may notice growing tensions in the world around us, or with the ones we love. Some things may get heated, so it’s important we keep ourselves centered and moving from a place of compassion and love.

Judgmental attitudes may pop up and we must remember that we don’t know what it’s like to walk someone else’s path, we need to stay open-minded and try to remember that we and everyone is just doing the best they can.

This may be quite a challenging New Moon. There is an emphasis on fiery Aries where both Chiron (the wounded healer) and Mars are travelling through. Wounds from war, wounds from past lives, inner wars, or battles in relationships want to be healed, but only to the degree, we are willing to take responsibility for our part.

Blaming others, as well as taking on too much responsibility, will be a huge temptation. The opportunity here is to put an end to fighting others and take the battle within, to claim independence from ego attachments and self-destructive traits.

Sometimes we need to be quiet and other times we need to speak up. This New Moon will teach us how to know the difference. Listening and taking just a little step back before we launch in will be the secret.

Ruled by the Sun and ruler of the heart the Leo New Moon will bring an immense amount of power, light and healing… but just as the saying goes: ‘the darkest hour is just before the dawn’.

For us to be able to embrace and shine the full light of our hearts, Leo will make us look into all that remains unhealed, hidden and avoided. Leo wants us to be able to live from our heart, and the only way to be able to do this is to remove all that blocks that keeps us closed.

Leo also wants to remind you that life should be fun, Leo brings a childlike energy that’s inspired by just about anything and everything. We can allow this Leo energy to remind us of what life was like before all the responsibilities and fears and opinions and ‘reality’ got in the way.

2020 has bought us many setbacks, challenges and circumstances we never could have imagined but it has also offered the opportunity for a lot of growth and change.

A few questions we can ponder on and ask ourselves under the dark night of the Leo New Moon…

What would life be like if there were literally no boundaries, restrictions or responsibilities and nothing to fear? What could we do right now if we knew without doubt that we would be supported?

What are our hearts and our authentic selves calling us to do?

How are we going to make the best of the time we have been given? How can we maximize what is left of this year?

For some of us, this may be completing projects, for others, this may be about learning how to rest and to dedicate time to wellness.

There is no wrong way to use our time, we just must not give up on ourselves or our dreams. We need to try to make the best of the hand we have been dealt and see what miracles and opportunities we can make from wherever we stand right here and now…today.

The Leo New Moon will be guiding us with this. It will be offering us an optimistic hand and sending positive beams of uplifting energy to remind us to make the most of our time and what is left of the year.

While we do have this motivating and inspiring energy on offer to us, there is also another layer to this New Moon too.

At the time of this New Moon, we have the planet Mars very active. Not only is Mars conjunct to Eris, the Goddess of Discord and Strife (Eris is the most massive and second-largest known dwarf planet in the Solar System) Mars is also in a square to Saturn and Pluto, plus trine to the Sun and Moon.

Essentially, this just means that Mars is very, Very busy! Mars will definitely be a star planet to watch as we wrap up this ultra-transformative year.

Yes, Mars is very active at the time of the Leo New Moon, but this can offer us increased motivation and drive. We may feel this inspired, fiery energy bubbling at our core and motivating us to get things done.

Alternatively, if we have been overdoing it, or just sensitive to strong fiery energy, we may find that this active Mars energy leads us to feel overwhelmed and burnt out.

It will be important to listen to our bodies and to connect with our own inner wisdom, as Mars is going to be triggering our energy levels and either wiping us out so we can get in balance, or boosting us up so we can get in balance.

Protecting our energy is also going to be important under the Leo New Moon. We can do this in many ways, shielding our energy, herbal cleansing smudges, saltwater baths, or working with our favourite crystals.

Because Mars is an action planet, doing things like exercise, eating well, and breathwork can also be beneficial too.

The potency of this New Moon has the power to raise things from the dark, so we may begin noticing or feeling this now, especially on a global level.

Following this New Moon, we may notice hidden information rising to the surface, or painful truths floating into our awareness. We can observe these & step back if it’s too much right now, but…. They will need to be looked at and dived right into as the transformation is here now to heal.

Overall, the Leo New Moon will be filling us with light so we can handle the tensions that may be swirling around us.

We need to stay connected to this light, breathing in the strength and the inner-fire that is on offer under Leo energy. Holding the flames of our purpose, our passion, and love within. Knowing that they are bright and powerful enough to guide us through whatever needs to rise following the Dark Moon.

Let’s use this powerful New Moon in Leo to connect deeply to our hearts, our truth, our passions and desires. Choose faith over fear and really go after what we desire and are passionate about.

Love and Blessings ♥♥♥
