The Moon is in Mysterious Scorpio.

Mars forms a square with Saturn.

When the Moon is in sassy Scorpio, it does take on some of this Scorpio energy, which, like the Scorpion itself, has a sting. However Scorpio is an amazing sign, with passion and fierceness. They are loyal and have a mysterious magnetism about them, Scorpio energy has also a wonderful chance for transformation to occur. So use this positive Scorpio energy for good on this Scorpio Moon day.

Mars forms a square with Saturn and as ive talked about all week, it can leave us feeling  blocked and lacking confident in asserting ourselves or pursuing our dreams. Today just slow down, take your time, if we encounter situations or people who challenge us and the way we think ,just breath and make adjustments and don’t go against resistance… Step outside your norm and push ahead. This is a time for slowing down,making personal adjustments, tweaking minor detail, especially as we may encounter resistance if we push ahead.

By this afternoon, the Sun will enter Aquarius where it will transit until February 18th.

Happy Thursday

Full Moon in Cancer 12/01/2017

Published on by andycandypants2 Comments

This is an action packed Full Moon, it is igniting the Cardinal Grand Cross this energy will continue until 2020. The Full Moon in Cancer at 22 degrees opposes the Sun in Capricorn in 22 degrees. This Full Moon energy is about putting yourself and people first.

We have the first Full Moon of 2017 happening this week on Thursday and it is at 22o in the lovely sign of Cancer. I wont lie this will be very intense with the cardinal grand cross and the Moon in Cancer it makes for a very intense, emotional, sensitive and intuitive time. The Full Moon is fully illuminated and the Sun and the Moon are 180 o apart. The Moon shines it illuminating light on us and influences us the most powerfully and because it’s in the sign of Cancer it will be showering down Cancers energy. Its power will be strong as it is sitting in its ruling sign. The Moon is ruled be Cancer so its energy will be heightened, it feels at home in this sign. Cancer is a cardinal water sign so we need to be taking charge of our emotions , loyalty, family, intuition,feelings, bonds and connections with our self and others, creativity,all the intangible aspects of life. This week we will be flooded with all these aspects and all the emotional things surrounding us. This week we will really feel what life is about , this includes really feeling what our relationships truly are both personally and business . This week we are going to be forced to feel our feelings so those of you in denial will not have a good week.

Take note if you are an earth sign as you may struggle! Earth signs generally don’t like major change or over the top emotional displays for no particular reason.. However we are all human beings, we all have feelings and sometimes we need to have a massive surge of emotions to get it all out of our system, clear the emotional decks and most importantly, it is how we go about change. Change does not just happen by sitting at home and saying everything is OK, I am safe and lets keep things the way they are ( which is what most earth signs would like) However this is a Full Moon in Cancer and feelings will arise,  people will experience strong intense feelings and intense urges to express themselves.

What needs changing? what needs to be released? what needs to be emotionally balanced?

This First Full Moon of 2017 is in a sign that is all about self-care. Cancer is all about taking care of you, nurturing you. Cancer energy  is all about your foundation, how you nourish and nurture yourself, how you love yourself,  how you take care of you. This month self reflect and ask yourself.. are you kind enough to yourself? Do you make sure that your needs are meet? Do you have enough sleep? exercise? You time? The Calling of this month is to focus on extreme self-care.

The Full Moon is at 22 degrees. Now 22 is the master number of the builder, so all this emotional upheaval does have a purpose. Something that is going to be presented to you and for some it may happen in an uncomfortable way , feelings will come up and some feelings may surprise you , For some past emotional  issues that  you may have locked away or thought yo had dealt with will arise , it will be waving in your face and screaming ” Hello im here acknowledge me please ” It is important to feel these feelings, to acknowledge them this emotional reality is the key to what will happen to you through out the year to . This Full Moon will force you to do something, so take some time , think things through this week it is not a great time to make plans and take action. Instead it s a time to go deep and sit with your feelings, hear them as this will help us create change. The master number of the builder  tells us that the significant changes that come out of this Full Moon will affect us for a while, I am talking the big changes such as who we love, where we work , where you live.

So take some time, be in this present moment and figure out what will give you security? What will give you joy? What needs releasing? What patterns need to be broken order for you to grow? What habits need to be released in order for you to better nurture yourself?

Happy Full Moon

This week in Astrology! 9/01/2017 – 15/01/2017

Published on by andycandypants1 Comment

This week in Astrology!

Monday 9/1/17 – Sunday 15/1/17.

What an exciting week! Several big things are happening this week and the energy is very much about moving forward. Many of us this week will have a feeling of momentum and wanting to move things forward. Now is the time for action!!  Some will take this action intelligently and some will take the energy and overdo it emotionally, but regardless there is a strong desire for change this week.

Mercury moves direct this week. YAY!  We will get clarity on issues that were presented to us early on December last year. The difference is we will not only get clarity but we will be moving forward on those issue, so think back what was happening to you around this time? Clarity equals action!

This week in our skies something amazing will happen that happens around once a year. All the planets are moving forward, that means no shadowing or retrograde!  This will be happening for the next four weeks, which means we get this comic kick-start  to get things going and move forward in our desired direction.

This week we will also get to experience a Grand Cardinal Cross! How exciting and liberating. So what is a grand cardinal cross? Well all the major players in the sky are in cardinals star signs. Now cardinal signs are those star signs that start off and begin each season, they are the signs that represent new beginnings,  fresh new change and energy. The Sun in a cardinal sign and is standing between Uranus and Jupiter in cardinal sign. This is creating a T square.but even better news is we see a Full Moon in Cancer this week! All the signs that start of the seasons are lit up this week, which gives us a sense of awareness and sense of enjoy on the surface! However be aware we can act very impulsive and  be highly emotional. With these placements the possibility of overdoing it, over indulging, being over sensitive and becoming highly impulsive and acting on emotions along with a few cosmic surprises coming out of the woodwork can be experienced . If you use this energy wisely it can work in your favor , with a little strategy and some thought you will prosper. This is because of what else is happening in the sky at the same time… Mars is speaking in harmony with Pluto, which is brilliant, because this means action meets strategy. Understanding of perception and how things are meant to be equal meaningful change, and this change can take place can from the root ! The result is a clear-cut path forward for us and the people around us. Transformation and change not only on an individual level but as a whole and collectively change, place your energy wisely. Were are you going to place your energy for change? We’re we place the majority of our energy is we’re we see growth, we’re can you see that needs change on deep and superficial level. The grand cross is basically a bunch of squares forming with the planets, and this translates into a bunch of conversations we need to have with our self , these conversations speak to our motivation for meaningful transformation to happen, they are energy ,momentum, so being smart about our actions towards positive change is the key at this time! Be the change for the future you want to live!

The Full Moon in Cancer tells us that our desire to change and to do something meaningful and that you personally passionate about, your emotional truth! Most of us out there all have at least one situation or problem in our life that has become unexpectedly difficult and this Full Moon will allow us to connect and see the truth. The momentum is there for us to make changes, trust your emotions and intuition, trust you have the right tools for success. Especially in the beginning of the week, revelations will be exposed , where we put our energy will be exposed and what changes need to occur? What do you need to release?

Have a great week

Wednesday 22nd December, 2016.

The Moon is in Libra.

The Sun moves into Capricorn.

Mars in Pisces.

Today is a very nice , easy,  reliable day. The Moon goes into Libra and the Sun goes into Capricorn. When the Moon is in Libra you feel very comfortable being around people,communicating with others and building harmonious relationship. Libra is the sign of partnership and relationships, whether t is business or romantic, so when the Moon is in this sign, there is no better time to focus on matters romantic. However remember that Mars in Pisces is going on in the background, so you will tend to find you are keeping things to yourself. The nice relationships and the good times you have today are not 100% honest, because Mars influences wants you to hold yourself back, and keep a certain part of yourself hidden! This ultimately  doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy yourself and have a great time today, it may mean that you or someone you are hanging around wont gauge with you 100%,NO  soul-searching and gazing today.

The Sun is in Capricorn, we can really feel that our actions and matters are grounded. That any action and direction we take,we will get a positive results . The Sun in Capricorn is very black or whites, practical, we see that our actions have consequences and are very predictable. The elements  and energy of Capricorn are clear, positive, reliable and safe.

Have a great day

New Moon in Sagittarius 29/11/16

Venus is in Capricorn.

Venus squares  Uranus in Aires

The New Moon in Sagittarius

It’s a big day astrologically speaking today! The New Moon is in Sagittarius . As we know New Moons and Full Moons have significant influences on us as the energy is so powerful . The question you are going to ask yourself here is how can i express myself creativity and what new beginnings can i make in my creative life. What new doors could potentially open in your life?

Today Venus is in Capricorn , Venus the planet of beauty and creativity and Capricorn is earthy and practical, so Venus is ready to work! Venus squares Uranus in Aires, so there is a real unique driven sense of ” I have something to express” you may have a creative vision that you really care about and are ready to put the hard yard in. This square aspect also brings a wake up and shake up vibe energy into our love life, money situations and to help us create more beauty in our life.

The New Moon today at 7’42 Sagittarius is the commencing a new lunar cycle. This Luna cycle is all about pulling in extra energy and getting ready for the next monthly cycle and starting a new again. New Moons are about planting seeds of intentions and really focusing on what you want to create for this month ahead. The moon is dark and makes us reflect inwards on what we really desire and require in our life. The energy we are pulling in this month is Sagittarius energy. We might want to focus on some of the positive traits of the sign of the Archer , this includes being optimistic, enthusiasm, adventurous, honest, outspoken and independent. Now Sagittarius energy is very positive , it’s all about shooting your arrow ( like the senator that represents the sign ) at targets , making goals moving towards them, you are feeling quiet capable, strong, fast and ready to hit the targets.

Optimism, passion and positivity is a main feature to focus on this month when creating your intentions.  Sagittarius is a fire sign, and that relates to life purpose and creativity. Not to mention the New Moon happens in 7 degrees and the number 7 is all about creativity and mind-set. But don’t forget the darker side of this star sign, they tend to over do it, think in such big terms they over do expectations and shy away from relationships to be independent but not care if  feelings are bruised along the way.

So take time to do a simple New Moon ritual. You will want to try to complete the ritual after the exact time of the New Moon or within 24 hours.Keep it simple,use the positive energies of Sagittarius and incorporate them in when you  write down what you wish to begin, create, and increase in the upcoming cycle.

 

Happy New Moon Day

Moon in Libra.

Venus is in Capricorn and it squares Jupiter in Libra.

  Jupiter in Libra conjunts Pluto in Capricorn.

Today in my eyes is the best day of the week . Today there is potential for massive transformation in your personal relationships! This is because Venus is in Capricorn and it squares Jupiter in Libra and then conjunts Pluto in Capricorn.

Pluto is the planet of change, transformation see it as the phoenix rising from the ashes, and this is BIG. This isn’t about little changes in your relationships, this energy is about taking your relationships and really solidify it and be together. If some of you have been in an unhappy relationship for a while this could be the transformation that could push you to makes changes.. whether it’s for the good or the bad it can go either way. Are you unhappy?do need that cosmic push to leave an unhappy relationship or do you need that confirmation that yes… yes this is the one and i am happy! Ignoring the fears and all the doubts of the ego . But ultimately today its a positive change.

Just remember what comes up today could equally be passion, excitement or even obsession.

Have a great day, and an amazing weekend

The Moon is in Cancer and opposes Venus is in Capricorn and squares Jupiter in Libra.

The Moon trines Neptune in Pisces.

 

The Moon goes into wonderful Cancer today and opposes Venus is in Capricorn and squares Jupiter in Libra it also trines Neptune in Pisces and Pluto in Capricorn. On this day try to avoid getting into any awkward intense conversations.. on saying that, some people out there love this kind of conversational conflict, they love to bring up past events, past mistakes. Some people thrive on drama, they get into it, and if there is no drama around they love to crate it. it’s a choice and that type of energy will be more available today. The energy will be floating around, so don’t get into conflicting conversations, don’t give into heated situations and avoid situations you know will turn heated.

Today don’t focus on negative thing in your life focus on the positive things you have going for you. It’s also a great day to transform personal relationships, especially on a romantic personal level.

Today with the Moon in Cancer, our emotions can be like the tide ( we are made up of 70 % water), we see our moods shift from shy, sensitive, mysterious, fun-loving and potentially a little snappy and guarded. If you can tap into nurturing Cancer energy and try open heart to all the goodness this star sign offers you such as quality family time, sweetness, love and enjoying creature comforts like fine food, snuggling and watching movies  the outcome can be a wonderful.

Cancer is ruled by the Moon and with this super moon energy still in our skies if it becomes overwhelming and difficult to deal with this intense energy , head to bed early or focus on all the good in your life, have some self-care, have a bath, put your feet in the sand or care and love those you choose to call family.

As the Cancer Moon trine mystical Neptune in Pisces, it is a great time to turn inwards, focus your energy towards deep sensitivity and compassion. Strengthen your relationship to the divine.

Have a great day

The Moon is in Gemini it makes connections with Chiron, Uranus the Sun in Scorpio

Mercury sesquiquadrate Uranus

Wednesday there is a lot going on. The Moon is in Gemini it makes connections with Chiron, Uranus the Sun in Scorpio and expect some information curve ball today, for example you get some information in and it changes the game , and you are going to have to deal with it! IT will be unexpected and very powerful and has the potential to alter things.. we will hear something  whether its your  personally or all of us its going to be something that decently throws a spanner in the mix  and is a game changer.

Today begins with the excitement of the Moon in Gemini. The Moon in  Gemini’s make’s us chatty, witty, logical and great at communication. Mercury sesquiquadrate Uranus today which on the bright side can produce sparks of insight but on the darker side it can leave us feeling scatter brained. Today could leave us over thinking, sarcastic, irritable and have sudden negative outburst of anger.. so do yourself a favor, focus on the new creative ideas that come to you, and count to 3 before you unleashed unwanted frustrations out on anyone, this especially  implies to yourself, as the only person you are truly frustrated at is your self.

Take time and bring yourself back down to earth. We are still in full swing of the Full Moon energy , and all we all know or have seen all emotions whether good or bad are brought to the surface,  maybe take some time out,  ground yourself especially if your energy is up in the air. But please do don’t push down  any emotion, haunting issue, hurt and frustration its  better for us to deal with them in a healthy way… like talk to someone you trust, eat ice cream, walk along the beach, sit in nature , pat an animal, take a nap.

Mars semi squares with Chiron. This square can point to increased sensitivity, to what we might feel are criticisms, friendly feedback or blows to the ego. Don’t take them to heart just remember people are feeling just like you today.

November Super Moon 2016

Published on by andycandypants3 Comments

On Monday 14/11/16 we will get a chance to experience a once in a lifetime (or maybe twice for some of us) event. Sure most of us have witnessed amazing Moons and Super Moons but next week the Full Moon will be the closet to Earth than any other since 1948! This Full Moon in Taurus is known as “perigree moon” It’s a fancy scientific term for ” The Moons closet point to Earth on its orbit”  but for us mere Moon Children it means the Moon is going to extra bright, extra-large and more jaw dropping than ever!

Whilst Super Moons have been shown to affect the tides, it also has the power to affect us humans here on Earth ( no surprise as we are made up of 70% water). Super Moons are supercharged and have the profound ability to amplify our emotional, physical and mental state! Our energetic bodies are effected differently all depending on your own individual astrological charts. Full Moons have the power to heighten our energy and emotions, amplify our intuition, disrupt our normal sleep patterns (either over sleeping or not at all).

So what else does this mean ? Expect synchronicities, lucid dreams, ecstatic irrational emotional burst, sensitivity to the energy of people, places and animals.

Traditionally Full Moons are a time for releasing ,they are a time for closure, for letting go of what no longer serves a purpose your life, Full Moons are a time for finales. Take a look back over the last month or so.. is there something or someone who needs healing and letting go of? Change is certain, things pass away and new things come into existence.

This amazing Supermoon in Taurus will be very positive and practical! This Full Moon will provide us with an understanding of the physical and practical side of your life, like your career , health, relationships, money and the everyday day things that we all experience . This Supermoon provides us with a great insight into these areas of our lives and we can align our energy too really experience change!

Taurus is the most practical earth sign of the zodiac. It’s the bull, and the bull energy is interested in maintaining the status quo, security, is a much grounded energy. Taurus admires and adores beautiful things, luxury, money and well good food and eating. Taurus love connection with other people along with  physical health, and well all of the things that involve planet earth. With the illumination of the Supermoon these Taurus qualities will be shining down onto us.

If anything in your life to do with those areas that you are not satisfied with, this  is the time for change! Use this powerful energy for closure, resolve the issues that are outstanding, get busy, get practical, sort things out! Do the work and get things sorted.Work on the mundane things of life that can bring you inner peace, joy and satisfactions, making your life for the better.

Is your personal relationships suffering in any way? Discus the practical circumstances of your relationship , what needs to be worked out? talk it out and be ready to accept the terms that you both agree on.

With your physical health, look inwards, what isn’t working for you?? Get in line with your body, listen to your body, what is it saying? what are you putting into your body that (much to your dismay) is not agreeing with you? It is the time for change! Cut those carbs, start eating breakfast, get up and walk on your lunch break , small changes can have the biggest impact!

If you are feeling up in the air with this intense energy floating around, the best way to balance is to ground yourself. This can achieved by walking bare foot on the ground, put your feet in the sand, take a hike in nature, swim in the ocean or  in a lake. If you are into connecting with Crystals hold them, surround yourself , meditate, find what helps sooth and ground you and work with that.

Hope you survive and get some amazing photos of this spectacular Super Moon.
