Are you suffering symptoms of Mercury Retrograde?

Published on by andycandypants2 Comments

Yes , we are in a Mercury Retrograde

Mercury Retrograde is great at helping bring to our attention those shadow parts of us, parts we may of felt that didn’t need healing. Mercury retrograde is great at highlighting where the healing lies and the truth can be found. In Mercury Retrograde communication, travel, technology, equipment, travel and contracts can be upside down, backwards, misinterpreted, breakdowns and unnecessary disagreements occur.

At work, you can find yourself frustrated even though you’re sure that you’ve explained yourself clearly, people around you do the opposite and your fail-proof computer crashes. You experience equipment and mechanical breakdowns of all types even at home, when out and your car!

Mercury does rule the mind, mental clarity, talking, self-expression so all these over this period can become  unreliable, filled with misinformation where important data is missing or misunderstood. During this period we should watch for too hasty communications as Mercury rules our communications and thought process and well in Aires we can become very direct ,assertive and self-centered. Say what must be said but try to remember to do so with kindness and compassion.

Mercury Retrograde in Aires gives us the courage to take action on something you have struggled with over the past few weeks. What curve balls have you been dealing with over the past month? What repetitive issues seem to be surfacing? Career, a friendship, your living circumstance, a draining relationship?

If you  have found yourself or parts of yourself being exposed, and in order to work on yourself you are stressed you must remember that you also need to love yourself unconditionally. When there is a lot going on give yourself some space, as much as the mind wants order, you will find when too much is going on we get agitated and stressed. When there is times of stress you must remember you are feeling a lot of things, so give yourself some space. Give yourself permission to experience those emotions instead of categorising it, organising it. Just let what needs to be revealed,happen. In these topsy upside and can be dark days of stress and frustration use your energy and see the small joys and blessing in your day. Even though you may be suffering and want to go on strike, see the small happy moments in the day and the lesson in the bad situations! Don’t stuff your feelings away,

The discomfort  and madness we are going through and experience on any level in Mercury Retrograde or not there is a choice to choose love and happiness! You can love someone and be mad, you can be frustrated but still caring, go with the flow, be present to everything that’s going on during this period, and don’t disqualify it because there is discomfort!! It often takes deep courage to admit to your mistakes and it is likely that is a necessary part of the conversation you must have. We all make mistakes, take responsibility and move forward with determination and love.

The Sun enters Capricorn, so Allow Stress to Roll off Your Back.

The Sun moves out of Sagittarius and into Capricorn

The Moon moves into Aquarius.

the Sun’s forms an alignment with Saturn.

The Sun entered Capricorn today. the Sun’s forms an alignment with Saturn (also in Capricorn). It is asking us to get serious. Saturn is the planet of lessons and hard work so if things get tough just allow stress to roll off your back.

Now that the Sun is in Capricorn, it marks for us down under (the southern hemisphere) the summer solstice/litha and the winter solstice and yule in the northern hemisphere.

Capricorn’s are the type that keep their  feet-on-the-ground. They are focused, especially when reaching a work stats and goal.  This month, expect to keep your eye-on-the-prize. With Sun in Capricorn we become more realistic, this earth grounded signs approach to life is by working hard and playing hard. The Capricorn Sun energy will give us ideas on how to do things, and how to get things done. This month use the Capricorn energy to make something and your self worthwhile.

When the Sun is in Capricorn, our attention and focus is on hard work. We start to become authoritative and more disciplined and responsible. Capricorn is represented by the Goat, who no matter what condition is thrown their way or how hard the journey is to the top of the mountain, they will reach it no matter what. Capricorn energy really helps us cut the fluff , the maybe’s, the airy fairy and wishy-washy out of our life. Capricorn makes us focus on the important things that contribute positively in our world. Capricorn energy helps us to decide what we want to build in our lives. It gives you a solid foundation of power, ambition a drive  to work hard and build your futures.

However, as above as below. Everything has a polar opposite. The shadow side of this sign is that we must watch out for being overly controlling, hard, emotionally repressed and cold, reserved, unforgiving, unsympathetic, rigid and to much of a  perfectionist.

This serious energy is very much welcomed in my eyes, as we can welcome some discipline into our lives. I know I surely need a good shape up or a good clip around the cosmic ear as of late. This is also a great time for working on a revised plan for creating order in your life, personal, work, business and daily routines even sorting out the pantry.

The Moon leaves hard-working, responsible Capricorn behind to enter innovative, free-spirited , humanitarian Aquarius.You are able to see the bigger picture now, without getting stuck in your own personal narrative and work needs. You may notice that you are not as attached to your own emotions, personal outcomes and gains and more about the collective. You are able to be more objective regarding situations and circumstances you find yourself in.

The Aquarius Moon is understanding and compassionate towards others, you may start to think outside the box or what society calls “Normal”.

Remember it’s not to late to write your new moon wishes! Get manifesting. I you are not sure how click below to help you along the way.

Happy Halloween! 31/10/17!

The Moon is in Pisces.

The Pisces Moon forms a trine to Mercury in Scorpio.

The Moon forms a square to Saturn.

Halloween is here!

Today brings more of the same energy as we had yesterday! The mystical Moon is still in Pisces, encouraging you to open imagination and do some internal self-reflection. Happy Halloween, and how fitting that the Moon stays in Pisces most of the day (until late this afternoon when it enters head strong Aires), and Halloween is about imagination, the spiritual realm, the veil between worlds lifting, intuition and fantasy. Your connection to deep divinity, creativity, and original insights remain strong throughout the day.

The Pisces Moon forms a flowing trine aspect to Mercury in Scorpio. Making the communication planet working in your favor as your communications and dealings with others will be easily heard and positively received. Mercury is a great at helping us think clearly and start  conversations about feelings or things we typically find difficult to express, and now it’s sitting in sassy Scorpio we will have the courage to speak up for our self and talk about issues we may have hidden from before!

The Moon makes is a harsh square to Saturn later today. This can throw us off the whimsical fun and play of all this Pisces and Halloween energy. We may have some wake up calls of seriousness and reach some limitations. Saturn who is ruled by Capricorn helps us to bring meaning and structure to our world. Saturn  the great teacher may be reminding some of us to slow down, I know with all this hype of Halloween its hard to get serious but Saturn is ultimately doing this for our own good.

Just remember , today is a great day to play with your deep imaginative playful side, get out there and  encourage those around you to engage in fanciful play.

 

Happy Halloween

Focus on the many desires you want. Create your future through the hard-working energy of Capricorn.With Neptune in the mix, draw upon your intuition and inner wisdom to help understand what’s happening around you and help clarify your life dreams and desires.

The Moon entered Scorpio.

The Moon in Scorpio conjunts Jupiter in Scorpio and Mercury in Scorpio.

As the Moon begins her trek through mysterious Scorpio, you can feel the intensity in the air rise! When the Moon is in Scorpio the energy is passionate, deeply intimate and things will be felt on a deep personal level today! Feeling stuck anywhere in your life? Well good news Scorpio is great at uncover the hidden, we are great at reading between the lines and getting to the bottom of things. Today most of the day is quiet in regards to the cosmos, so what a perfect day to get personal.

The Moon in Scorpio conjunts Jupiter in Scorpio. Not only do we have Scorpio energy playing on our emotions and mood (The Moon) we have the planet of expansion and abundance ( Jupiter) in Scorpio, so feelings and emotions will become very strong. We may act out on emotional impulses and some may think the world is against them or play ” victim”.

Today will also be a great day of self discovery, connecting with your self and your environment will help you truly figure out what you want , what your about and how you want to go about making changes to reach these dreams.

Not only do we see this conjunction between Jupiter and the Moon, but we also see them joining with Mercury in Scorpio. The communication planet in Scorpio means that our thinking and conversation could heat up, become serious and passionate! Be warned that the results of your words and thoughts can go both ways, and some things said and done today can have a larger impact than you expected. It will also be a great morning to allow healing to come through words expressed, journal writing and exploring your inner deep self.

Happy Friday.

HAve a great weekend.

Wednesday is about self care and nurturing! 11/10/2017

Published on by andycandypantsLeave a comment

Wednesday October 11th, 2017.

The Moon is in Cancer.

Mars in Virgo squares Saturn in Sagittarius.

When you wake up this morning, the Moon will have entered nurturing Cancer while you slept. The Moon rules over Cancer, and the Moon is all about our emotions, making this a day to settle into your feelings. Cancer loves to seek and provide comfort. Cook for yourself, make a romantic meal or feed your friends. Today the energy is wonderful to show love and warmth to everyone you meet, stranger or not.

Aggressive Mars form a challenging square aspect to restrictive Saturn. This will create some friction between the planet that rules our will and drive and the Master planet of limitation, lessons and Karma. You may experience frustration and aggravation today, if you feel as the whole world is against you, what a great  warning or a sign to slow down and resist the temptation to react or respond without thinking things through! The key to today is to slow down and take things steady, if you feel situations or emotions are getting out of your control, take a walk, clear your mind. Let your actions today be taken with discernment, an open heart and integrity and not from an impulse, reaction and  irritability!

The past few days have been deeply challenging and comfort is one thing you can do with and offer use the Moon in Cancer to nurture yourself and others, retreat to the comfort of your home and loved ones today if it gets too much!.

Happy Wednesday Gang!

Jupiter enters Scorpio 10/10/17

Jupiter enters Scorpio.

What a massive shift we experience today, as lucky Jupiter leaves harmonious Libra and enters into sassy Scorpio, where it will spend the next year expanding and enlarging the qualities of Scorpio. Jupiter is the planet of luck, expansion,success and abundance! Jupiter has just spent a year in harmonious, balanced, diplomatic and relationship oriented Libra. Now, as she enters Scorpio, we will experience the qualities of Scorpio expanding over the coming year until November 2018.

Jupiter is moving from an air sign into a water sign. Air signs energy is great for communication, exchanging of ideas, networking, being very light, very superficial and social. Scorpio is a fixed water sign, as a fixed sign Scorpio is more grounded and solid, it’s about control and handling of ones feelings and emotions, its intelligent and very influential to other people as they are emotionally stable, intuitive and grounded.

Pluto is the planet that rules over mysterious Scorpio, and Pluto is about transformation, birth and death. It’s about looking at the bigger picture, healing, intuition and imagination, making deep genuine relationships and making universal connections.

Jupiter in Scorpio is also exceptional for empowering ourselves, entering into deep journeys to discover ones self.  Scorpio also rules all things taboo (or things society deems taboo) like sex, power, money, darker things in life, death and control. Jupiter in Scorpio can help our self to become empowered in these areas and face any fears we may also have in these areas. It  can also be great for deepening  intimacy and partnerships, from romantic but also business and financial.

Scorpio is a great sign to teaches us to go deep within. Scorpio has the gift to look into the eye of darkness, it has the ability to uncover hidden truths, uncover secrets and to destroy what is not working in order for full transformation to occur. When Jupiter is in Scorpio its expanding this energy, its magnifying our ability to go deep within, focus on your self and the emotional side of life. We can learn so much about our self in Scorpio. It would be very handy to look at your chart, Consider what house holds Scorpio, to understand where expansion and transformation will be building in your life during this time.

However, Scorpio can be very intense, and form very intense relationships. Jealously can arise as well as distrust, anger, power control and power plays in relationships. Be aware that over the coming year you will feel things more deeply, you may act out on an emotional impulse. If you are one who is more sensitive to emotions, anxiety or prone to arguments, anger, and love deep take care of yourself and be aware we are entering into an emotional time.

 This coming year can be an amazing one for growth and evolution!

Have a great day!

Transformation and healing! 09/10/2017.

Mercury squares Pluto in Capricorn.

The Sun In Libra squares Pluto in Capricorn.

The Moon is in Gemini.

Today begins with the communication and thought-provoking, Mercury forming a challenging square to transformative, dark Pluto. The Sun in Libra also squares powerful Pluto today. These aspects will bring some pretty intense energy into relationships, communication and more! Today there isn’t much I can say that may lighten the mood in regards to the challenges we may face during this period. In early January of this year, the Sun joined with Pluto, and it began for many of us a cycle of deep, powerful transformation. Now it is in its third quarter square aspect, it is a time when we will all begin a process of letting go. We should be preparing to dive even deeper than we ever have over the coming year.We will be feeling these energies all day long and can be felt in a very strong way.

Pluto is the planet that relates to death, birth and transformation. It energy embodies all that is powerful and hidden. Pluto is great for seeing the shadow and hidden parts of us and digging deep getting to the truth of matters. It will be more of benefit for you to look directly into the eye of any darkness in your life. Especially any areas or issues you think that you have dealt with or have buried deep within. Where are you questioning issues of trust and safety? Where are you feeling the bitterness of past hurts or anguish.

However these aspects may have a negative side, it needs to make us aware of power or control dynamics around you, within you and your relationship around you. Also, manipulation and certain domination traits may be highlighted within yourself or others. Today is a day to best deal with whats in front of you, and not to completely bury your head in the sand. Honor your struggle and the encounters others are facing during this time. Take the extra step to show up with kindness today and face the world with courage in all circumstances.

The Moon is in chatty, light-hearted and witty Gemini. When the Moon is in Gemini we are upbeat, communication is sharp and we are energetic. This aspect will keep any issues we want to smooth out light and manageable.

Happy Monday!

Thursday 24/08/2017 Love and Relationships.

Published on by andycandypants2 Comments

Thursday, August 24, 2017.

The Moon is in Libra.

Venus in Cancer squares Uranus in Aires.

With the Moon in Libra today you will wake up and probably feel social, harmonious  and in the mood for some loving, playful time with your partner or best friend. The Moon is about what sets our emotional tone for the day and in Libra, and when it’s in Libra you have a strong urge to connect with others, to build relationships and harmonies environments and situations. Bring beauty and love into your life today, do something nice with someone you love, or practice random acts of kindness to stranger. Bring about peace in your world.

Later today charming, sophisticated Venus in Cancer forms a challenging difficult square aspect to unconventional Uranus in Aires. There will be tension between the goddess of love and beauty and the planet of freedom. As Venus in Cancer wants and needs comfort and meaningful interactions and Uranus seeks freedoms and wants to be independent. This may well upset the happy-go-lucky vibe of the lovely harmonious Libra Moon.

Don’t act on flimsy whims rule your decisions and find a balance between intimacy and freedom.

Happy Thursday!
