The Moon is in Libra.

The Moon quincunxes the Sun in Taurus and opposes Mercury in Aires and Uranus in Aires.

Happy Monday everyone. Just heads up this week is a little yin and yang.One day we will experience one thing and the next day the complete opposite.  harsh energy shifts from one extreme to another. Heads up to those who don’t like change or struggle with change , who love consistency and the uncomplicated. Unfortunately this may not be your week. This week is going to provide us with high and low energy and it will be all over the place.

The Libra Moon quincunxes the Sun in Taurus and opposes Mercury in Aires as well as Uranus in Aires. So we see Mercury the communication planet and Uranus the planet of rebelling both in the sign of Aires. With both these planets in Aires we can become very forceful, and much more confident in the way we communicate we will have a sense that you are always right, highly confident and well cocky. Just be aware before you shoot a loaded gun ( your mouth and temper). However with the lovely energy of Libra beaming down on us we will try to find balance and harmony in our interactions with others.

Today is a very social start to the week. The Moon in Libra who is very relationship orientated,provides us with a great time to be with and connect with others. Spend time with ones you love, especially if of late you have been struggle to find answer to problems or situations. Today is a great time to converse and brain storms with people you trust. think about the fresh perspectives you may get. Today is also a great day to attempt at strengthening and supporting others, both personal and professional.

 

Have a great day!

The New Moon is in Taurus than enters Gemini.

The Moon trines Pluto and sextiles Chiron and Venus.

Today the New Moon is in Taurus until late tonight when it enters Gemini. The Moon trines Pluto in Capricorn and sextiles Chiron and Venus in Pisces. Focus on what actions you personally can take that will make things better in a physical sense both yourself and for others. It’s about really thinking about yourself, how you feel, what you want and how you want things to be and taking the actions to reach these goals. The energy is has been settling into a more grounded and earthy motion is now building so the question is what do you want to create? The Moon/Venus aspect will also bring some lovely energy for deepening into emotions and connecting heart to heart with others or your self if needed.

Speaking of being creative, how did you go with your New Moon wishes yesterday? The New Moon took place yesterday, so that means we are still in the New Moon phase, it’s still a good time to make your wishes if you didn’t already.

Have a great day!

New Moon in Taurus! 26/04/2017

Wednesday, April 26, 2017.

Today’s New Moon is at 6° Taurus

Happy New Moon day!

I love a New Moon, the energy itself is fantastic! What an exciting time to plant seeds of intention, to dream of ideas to grow, to creatively use the energy of the sign its in to help manifest and work on yourself and what you want to achieve. Nothing feels as good as writing a bucket or to do list and ticking it of once achieved!

Today the New Moon is at 6° in the sign of Taurus. Today we see both the Sun and the Moon in Taurus. Wow a lot of the earthy, practical energy is being pulled in this New Moon. You will feel very grounded and seek security, you will find you can be reluctant to make changes, you will be interested increasing the luxuries in your life, you will have an urge to invest your time in beautiful things and creating that feeling within. Physical health, financial security, creativity will be high on your list this month.

Reconnecting with the seasons is a strong theme this month, for us down in the southern hemisphere it’s the Autumn feel, the smell in the air, it’s the beauty of the leaves falling, it’s a time we seek warmth and want to snuggle and nest. The northern hemisphere its spring and a time of growth and rebirth, the plants are blossoming, it’s the warmth, nutrition and a chance to grow and create opportunities in your life.

Use the Taurus energy that is being pulled in and towards us this lunar cycle. Now the Moon and Sun are at 6 degrees today and well the number vibration of six is all about temporary opportunities opening up for us, so this New Moon draws in new opportunities. here are a few areas in which will be highlighted.

The energy is tinged with career energy and if you can take a few moments today or tomorrow and think about what is going on with your job, what new opportunities would you like ,what changes need to be made, what new project or idea do you want to work on and are you happy in your current position. Just taking that time to figure out what you want and if you are happy were you are will give you so many positive downloads to work on and with and land you in the position you want to be!

The New Moon in Taurus is great at making a financial plan. Use this Moon to sit down and make a long list , as well as take a good hard look at your finances, savings, property, cash and possessions. There is no better time to think about were you are  financially and where you would like to be by the end of the year… What small savings can you achieve weekly to help towards the bigger picture and your end goals.

Don’t neglect this New Moon ritual. Keep it simple. Take a moment to write down what you wish to begin, create, or increase in this upcoming cycle. For the Taurus New Moon ritual, set an intention regarding the ability to steadfastly build or grow something. It’s a wonderful time to commit to personal goals, especially physical goals. It’s time to enjoy life’s simple pleasure, stop and smell the roses step into mother nature and appreciate the beauty all around us and the small miracles that happen daily.

Happy New Moon wishing and have a great day.

Pluto stations Retrograde 20/4/17

Thursday, April 20th, 2017.

Pluto stations retrograde in Capricorn.

Mercury Retrograde moves back into Aires.

Mercury Retrograde moves backwards into Aires today.  Some may feel the shift from earthy,grounded Taurus to fast pace, fiery Aires. With Mercury back in Aries, our communications will be more direct, assertive and we become very head strong and dynamic! However as much as being a little more assertive can be good thing we can also be aggressive, overly fire, angry and dominating too. Finding ways to breath and calm down  in times of anger so that we are communicating and thinking directly but not violently or aggressively is key to getting through today. Pay attention to the difference between assertiveness and aggression.

One of the highlights of this Mercury retrograde journey especially for me who is going through some major life changes is its triple conjunction with Uranus during the coming weeks with the 2nd interaction taking place soon. Prepare and brace yourself for shocking, all empowering, or sudden information being illuminated and coming to Light.

Pluto stations retrograde in the sign of Capricorn today, and thus making the Lord of the Underworld and planet of death and rebirth the most powerful planet in the sky! Pluto’s intense and complex energy hangs heavy in the air until September 28th, 2017 when it moves direct. Over the next few days/weeks surrounding Pluto’s station can be especially intense, and I bet you can all feel it in the air, something dark and stirring. So be aware of how you use and dominate your power, and stay clear of power/control dynamics and manipulation as we may be re-assessing how we use our power.

Empowerment Vs over powering is the theme and my caution during this time. Any conflict that you may occur now is worth examining , instead of seeing the negatives, ask yourself what the message is in these challenges you face during this phase.

Have a great day!

The Waning Moon is in Capricorn.

The Moon in Capricorn squares Jupiter in Libra conjunts Pluto in Capricorn.

The Moon in Capricorn squares Jupiter in Libra and conjunts Pluto in Capricorn. This is a wonderful day for networking, group activities and working with others, for the Moon in Capricorn can be very grounded and serious, but Jupiter in Libra loves working with other people. When Pluto is in Capricorn its about transformation and change, that means for us change will come about today when you connect and aline yourself with other people, it will give yourself a much need boost. However we could see power struggles ( blame Pluto) and the potential for our ego to be overblown ( thanks Jupiter).

Today some of us may be sensitive at times, just remember to not to allow yourself to be sucked into difficulties, and vice versa be sure you are not pulling others into hard situations as much as crave order and predictability in your lives do not stir the pot.

Count your blessing and have a great day!

The Moon is in Scorpio.

The Moon opposes Mars in Taurus, sextiles Pluto in Capricorn quincunxes the Sun in Aires and Uranus in Aires.

Good Morning! We are still in the Full Moon phase in Scorpio! This Full Moon forms lots of relationships today. The Moon opposes Mars in Taurus, sextiles Pluto in Capricorn, quincunxes the Sun in Aires and Uranus in Aires . Wow what a powerful day to get things done and done your way.. Today has the energy that is all about what you want, when and how you what it, and how you get it. However there is a huge potential for conflict today, think about it if you have those attitudes today .Clashing and bumping heads with others is likely to happen today. Today there is opportunity for us to be inpatient, stubborn, head strong and unwilling to uncompromising. Remember to add to all this that the Full Moon energies are also intense. so just remember to BREATH!

Allow yourself to rest in a space of emotional connection, depth, and empowerment throughout the morning with all this intense energies around.Try to get some serious exercise or any activity to get some of this excess energy built up, follow that with a hot bath, a massage and a cup of tea, and get to bed early to avoid drama and stress!

Don’t forget this energy is not automatically a negative. It can show up as excitement  just as easily as unsettled anxiety.

Happy Thursday and have a great Easter.

Full Moon in Libra 10/4/17

Monday April 10th, 2017.

The Full Moon in Libra.

Mercury and Venus in Retrograde.

As we approach the Full Moon in Libra late tonight can you feel the tension and energy building? I can tell you I sure have! The Full Moon in Libra happens very late tonight into the Early hours of tomorrow 11/4/17. As the Full Moon moves through Libra, what can you do what we can to create harmony in your environment. Full Moons traditionally are all about forcing us to look at where things in our lives need to change, your home life, your relationships, your job, your unhealthy habits, diet , stress etc.. The Libra Moon is diplomatic, equality-minded, and fair-minded so incorporate these energies into your life especially if things are a chaotic .

Yes, both Venus (who happens to be ruled by Libra) and Mercury are both retrograde. That just means for us today, keep your head down, and go with the flow. Communications can be misinterpreted during Mercury retrograde. Go home have a quiet night and focus on cleaning up aspects of your life such finances, partnerships, projects that have been left on the back burner for too long. Tie up loose ends! On the plus side there is potential to be a relatively easygoing day, even as we adjust to Mercury’s retrograde motion.

Happy Monday!

Saturn’s Stationed 06/04/17

Thursday April 6th, 2017.

The Moon is in Leo.

Saturn stations retrograde.

Saturn stations as it turns retrograde today and yesterday. Don’t be shocked that if the tone of the week turns a tad what somber and you get a heavy feeling in your daily life.  Saturn’s station in retrograde over the next four months can really force us to do some soul-searching, especially in regards to any long-term commitments that you are considering, your soul life purpose relationships, relocation and business matters.

Handy tip If you know the house Saturn is moving through in your chart during this retrograde, that is the most likely area on which you should focus on .

The Moon is in playful, creative Leo all day! We are getting closer to the Full Moon. How is your New Moon wish list going?Are you working on manifesting your stated New Moon goals? If not, why not?

Have a great day!

The Moon continues it transit of Cancer until it enters Leo tonight.

The Moon in Cancer forms a trine to Retrograde Venus.

Mars in Taurus quincunxes retrograde Jupiter in Libra.

The Moon continues its transit of tender, nurturing Cancer until it enters Leo later this afternoon. When the Moon is in its home sign of Cancer we’re focusing on our home or personal life more than usual! Maybe its a great time to rearrange the house , cook your loved ones a meal or tap into your inner child and do something fun and satisfying.

This caring Moon in Cancer forms a trine aspect to lovely retrograde Venus this afternoon, allowing us to really feel a loving connection, to you, others, mother nature and an appreciation of life and the beauty in the world. It can also can point to nostalgic feelings and we get comfort from our affections and actions based on love. Today take a break from your work and head outside even for a moment; look at the sky and experience expansive beauty, or appreciate someone by sending a random, lovely text to that friend or loved one.

The Moon than moves into Leo later tonight. This Leo Moon than squares Mercury in Taurus. So again its great energy, it gives us a sense of drive and its wonderful day to continue the theme of spending time with friends and loved ones. The Leo Moon is great at opening the evening for playful, pleasurable and creative fun.

Mars in Taurus quincunxes retrograde Jupiter in Libra.This can leave us feeling some tension and friction between Mars the warrior planet and what drives us and the planet of expansion and luck, but remembering that Jupiter has a way of exacerbating  and over dong it . This Mars/Jupiter energy has an immediacy to ACT NOW! Try and remember that patience and some insight into anything we get impulsive or reactive to today will work in your favor! Circumstances are such that we may need to access where we’ve been putting too much or too little of our energy. Mars in Taurus lucky enough likes to find and cultivate this patience and foresight before taking action.Just a heads up Poor timing is possible today.

Have a great Tuesday!

Monday 3/4/17 Daily Grind

 

Monday 3rd April, 2017.

 The First quarter Moon in Cancer.

The Cancer Moon trines Neptune in Pisces.

Happy Monday.

Today starts off really we. We have the First quarter Moon in sensitive, emotional , watery Cancer all day long. Early today the Moon makes a lovely aspects to Neptune in Pisces making it extra dreamy and intuitive in the morning hours.

Now when we talk about the first quarter Moon we really are referring to a starting point. Last week we had a New Moon, where the Moon was in complete darkness, Now we see the Moon moving towards a Full Moon, where it is completely lit up and illuminated. The first quarter Moon is half was journey to being full. There is a sense of anticipation ,and energy building up and that Moon in Cancer and Neptune energy really gives you a sense of drive and a boost energy, combined with dreaming about what your future could be like. This means there is a sense of hope, and a sense of enthusiasm, if I can dream it i can make it happen.

Today is a nice change, as we have seen and felt some intense energy as of late, with the New astrological year, a New Moon and Venus in retrograde. Venus continues to retrograde until the 15/4/2017 and its effects have been felt by most . It has left a lot of us feeling a lack of love and beauty for themselves, for others, and a lack of love for what you are doing in your lives. But with The First quarter Moon in nurturing Cancer and Neptune in dreamy Pisces we feel a sense of hope for the future and love. Today is beautiful, full of surprises  in a positive way. We have a smile for our up coming future, so look out for the magic and synchronicity today.

Have a great day!
