The Moon in Sagittarius

The Moon will square with Neptune in Pisces and align with Saturn in Sagittarius

The  Moon is in adventurous Sagittarius all day. When the Moon and Sagittarius meet it can   stimulate a desire for more than ordinary daily experiences. We become more upbeat and are attracted to new situations of conquest. We clear away the cobwebs and search for adventure. Tired of the mundane lifestyle,we will require less prompting to lash out and break our normal routine, experiencing life in a fun new way is appealing now.

The Moon will square with Neptune in Pisces and align with Saturn in Sagittarius. This can make people susceptible to moaning and become irritable, as we may be wrestling with practicality and imagination and trying to find balance in our expectations. Saturn may be hovering over the Moon today whispering the potential hazards of her new-found spark for adventures, but remember Saturn  doesn’t really want to stop you going on an adventure. Saturn energy is reminding you to check the details, check your reasons before launching into the unknown. Today is a great day  to mingle with others and enjoy ourselves in the process.

Today  we will find our intuitive messages will be strong and very spot on. This will motivate us to take practical action and help us build more positive harmonious loving life . With Neptune the dreamy planet inspiring us  we are looking at our futures, looking ahead, we are very intelligent in our future prosperity options. Today we will have a laser beam focus , very clear and sharp on what we want for our lives. So think about your future today, think about how you can bring in more love and harmony , how can you reduce drama and negativity.

 

Have a great day

Venus in Libra sextiles Saturn in Sagittarius,

The Moon is in Scorpio

 

The Moon is in the sign of  Scorpio most of the  day until later tonight when it enters Sagittarius. Venus in Libra sextiles Saturn in Sagittarius.

When to Moon is in Scorpio, getting to the bottom of things and focusing is always easier.There can be some insecurity or doubts ticking over in our minds in regards to others or our own feelings and perceptions under this influence but as the Moon enters into Sagittarius at 9:21 PM , it has the ability to pull us out of our shells and inspire us especially along the lines of new visions of the future. We can make improvements  by approaching matters in a structured way and paying attention to traditional way of doing things.

Venus the planet of love, finances and beauty is aligning with Saturn the planet of commitment and discipline and mastery lessons. This alignment is great for those who want to get down and real in their relationships,including financial and business relationships. This planetary interaction also helps  us stabilize our affections along with, bringing our emotions to a mature, realistic place.

A quincunx forms between Venus and Neptune. Neptune is the ruler of dreams, mysteries, illusions and abstract thinking combined with the planet of love, abundance, finance and beauty  can make us become over idealistic.We can be left finding ourselves struggling between wanting to see things realistically and preferring to look the other way ! Seeing what we want and perceive through rose-coloured glasses .

Have a great day

Mercury retrograde

 

THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO MERCURY RETROGRADE

“ What does Mercury Retrograde mean”

You may have heard your friends say, “Oh, no, Mercury is in retrograde again!” And you may have wondered what in the world are they talking about… I know my best friend gives me that look every time I mention Mercury… Well no more confusion and don’t panic if you don’t know astrology, im no Nostradamus myself but here are a few key facts and a quick rundown on what you need to know to get you through “ Mercury Retrograde”

If you still have no idea what I’m talking about, here we go… As we know planets are always spinning (and if you didn’t than there is a fun team room fact you can share) Retrograde is when a planet “appears” to stop spinning and move backwards. Don’t worry all planets do this, but when Mercury goes retrograde (up to four times a year for about three weeks at a time) us awesome earthlings feel the full, crappy force of it.

Even people whom “don’t believe in astrology” or all that other mumbo jumbo, new age hippie business often believe in the crazy aftershocks of Mercury retrograde. Why is that you may ask?

It’s because Mercury, is said to be the planet that influences communication, logical thinking and travel. So when the planet goes retrograde (backwards in the sky) all things influenced by Mercury go backwards.

So to explain it simply-

Don’t make any important moves when Mercury is retrograde. Nothing will be settled successfully for the future during these periods,so is not a good time to sign any new contracts or even to shake hands on any new agreements. Do not sign a new lease or close on a house during this time. Anyway you will find it nearly impossible to nail down a plan. It’s also highly unreliable to complete important transactions, access accurate information or make big decisions.

When Mercury retrogrades it is notorious for information and communication being scrabbled. Which causes confusion so don’t forget to clarify information and get feedback when communication with others. Miscommunication is rife during retrograde, so make sure you’re expressing your thoughts, ideas and opinions as clearly as possible. You’ll have to work harder to get your point across.

I advise you that it would not be a good times to do anything involving communications, such as launch a magazine, website (which I just realised I did duh!). Also it is also considered poor time to launch any new endeavours, even if they are not related to the communications industries.

And don’t forget verbal agreements are considered the same as written ones.

Here are some do’s and don’ts to get you through this craycray time…

DON’T initiate anything new

DON’T purchase any BIG items

DON’T forget to check the details

DON’T put your life on hold

DO express yourself extra clearly

DO expect travel delays

DO enjoy a bit of down time

DO finish old projects

So how can we  use Mercury retrograde energy during this time?

Clean out your closet “ trim the fat” , the mercury retrograde energy is fantastic for culling out those unwanted items that gather dust in your wardrobe ‘ they say if you haven’t worn it in the last 6 months be merciless and chuck it, chances are you will never wear it! And don’t worry you will have plenty of planters help

Forgive and forget..

Mercury retrograde encourages us ( sometimes as painful and annoyed as ripping a bandaid off an old wound you thought had healed) or in some cases to tie up loose ends, as we all know bitterness looks ugly on people especially if you are holding onto a grudge towards someone else. Bitterness, negative emotions and bad vibes as well all know is like drinking Poison and waiting for the other person to die… USELESS and honestly it’s make you age terribly so my advise.. It’s time to move on remembering you don’t have to forget but forgive, not for them but for your own peace.

Rejuvenate your living space..

It’s always fun giving your home a makeover, and if you have been thinking about redecorating for a while now is the time, tap into the Mercury retrograde energy and go for it. Your home is a reflection of your fabulous self and there is no better feeling than being proud of your home, it’s an instant confidence boost but remember no BIG PURCHASES during Mercury retrograde so plan plan plan, Rearrange your place , spring clean, jump online and get lost on Pinterest planing and getting creative ideas for your dream home. Toss out the old stuff and donate it to charity ( good karma) or sell it online and make extra cash for when you can start buying up big!

Get nostalgic

Mercury retrograde is the best time to step into a time warp, play that old CD from high school, watch movies you loved as a kid , flick through old photos remember all the times, feel like a kid again when everything was magical!

So sit tight guys, Mercury retrograde luckily only last a few weeks, so use this time to do anything that involves “Re” revise old plans and projects, rearrange , redecorate and revisit any personal issues and feelings that happen to come up during this time , it’s an indication it hasn’t been fully healed. And remember this is not a time to start anything new or sign new contracts. Mercury the messenger is having a mini melt down so expect mixed messages, communication brake downs, technology malfunctions and travel hiccups.

Monday August 22

“Time to get organised, Time to focuses on the detail and focus on self Care “

Happy Birthday Virgo..

Monday 22nd August Today  is a very positive day. The Sun moves out of Leo and into Virgo. The Moon is in Taurus and Mercury in Virgo conjunct Jupiter in Virgo. Communication is easy today, is practical, grounded and easy to understand. Today you can find giving advise to others will be receptive and implemented.

Disseminating Moon in Taurus, Well a Disseminating Moon is the phase after the Full Moon, the Moon is on the wane ( decrees)  but the there is till Fullness in the Moon.  it’s a very active Moon phase, we can find its energy  enthusiastic easy to act on and we have bright visions.  There can be real progress in this phase. The Moon and Taurus go really well together. If you are aiming to increase your cash flow, the abundant Taurus Moon makes it an excellent time to work on your plans, the energy also make it easy to visualize the bigger picture and new ideas.

With the Sun entering Virgo we can accept a shift from our from conscious yang to our ego yin , fire to earth.Our focus shifts to the pieces of the puzzle, organization, getting healthy and evaluating the little details of our lives.Opportunities emerge to express our feelings and share our happiness and joy today. But remember the shadow side of Virgo.. being overly critical of yourself and others, allowing fears and failures take you over, perfectionism and being somewhat judgmental.

 

Mercury the planet of the mind, thoughts and communication aligns with Jupiter the planet of luck, expansion and growth. This alignment means it’s a a great day for personal and intellectual growth, communication, learning and travel . Today we will find it easy to broaden our visualizations  and see the “Big Picture”, leaving us feeling optimistic and positive.We all know how the law of attraction works “Like attracts more likes” thinking about what is truly important to us in the long run.

Full Moon in Aquarius 18/8/16

18th August 2016

Tonight the  Full Moon occurs a at 25° in Aquarius

the Moon sextile Uranus  and Quincunx Jupiter.

This planetary aspect creates what is called a YOD. A Yod or sometimes also known as” the Finger Of God” is a rare astrological aspect  involving three planets that will form a long triangle pattern. The finger is pointing directly at Jupiter and has the Moon sextile Uranus at the base. A Yod historically signifies a special karmic mission, it has the energy of destiny or fate that it requires you to complete in order for your soul to evolve.

With the Finger of God pointing to Jupiter, the planet of luck  our good fortune is connected with faith. Faith in our self, in the new opportunities that we create or that have been presented to us. Faith that we walk into the future blind, but knowing that all our needs are met and that if we leap we will land exactly where we were meant to be. We must have the courage to believe in our self and our new path.Self doubt and NOT believing in yourself could cause you to strike out, remember the Yod is about karmic lessons so lets not come back on repeat.

Uranus is the key to resolving this opposition, it is an invitation for us to shatter old patterns and brings about emotional freedom.The Full Moon illuminates the rebellious side of you and gives you the courage to exploring possibilities it also brings out a revolutionary freedom that liberates you.

With Jupiter there is always the danger of going over the top and over doing things, combined  with the Uranus/Moon sextile aspect our new-found courage can often  provoke fear, anxiety and self-criticism hindering our soul progression.

 The Full Moon in Aquarius is progressive, creative and truth-seeking. It will do you good to purge and release things from your life that no longer serve your higher self. Tonight write a list of things that are no longer working for you or that may be holding you back, and safely under the moon burn the list and release what no longer serves you.

Repeat after me  Change can be a good thing.

The mission of this month’s lunar eclipse/ Yod is for us to take the new discoveries  and exciting changes in your life and turn them into optimistic plans for a brighter future.

Don’t let self-doubt and fear slow your progress.

 

Happy Full Moon

La Luna Eclipse… What are they all about?

Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Aquarius

  August 18 2016

Arh nothing like a Full Moon Luna Eclipse in Aquarius on Thursday to help uproot all aspects of ourselves, no matter how hidden or buried deep with in.Luna Eclipses help us rid of ourselves of things that no longer serve us, our soul or our true divine higher self and life purpose.

As humans, it is normal that we avoid what’s painful and tend to stay in the safety of our comfort zones. Luna eclipses are a cosmic tool the universe uses to get us to pay attention to areas of our lives that need change.

Luna Eclipses want us to change (and change we do, whether we want to or not) They are dramatic and work very rapidly in shaking us on an emotional level. Luna Eclipses have a way of pushing us to pay attention to all areas of our life that need changing or purging and force us into action.

Luna eclipses are brilliant at illuminating ” Our shadow self” revealing hidden truths buried deep down within and more than often denied. Some of us may find it difficult to accept these aspects of our shadow self and others during this time. However if we’re willing to accept the good along with the bad however confronting or hard to digest ,it can be a magical moment of discovery paving the way of higher level of maturity.

Eclipses bring about unexpected events, forcing us into action

Eclipses are mediators of change. Eclipses help us break patterns, they allow us to make  progressive and creative  dynamics shift .

They are the real truth seekers.

The only way with an Eclipse is forward.

A Full Moon lunar eclipse can trigger emotional events.

Memories and dreams resurface.

15/8/16 Monday Madness

Monday august 15th 2016

Happy Monday… Today will be a great day , any actions we take today will go down very well. Problems will be solved easily today as the Moon is in Capricorn all day. Capricorn is a no-nonsense sign, grounded, its practical, realistic and goal orientated.

The Moon trines Virgo in Jupiter and Pluto in Capricorn today. Pluto in Capricorn allows for change through practicality, change through letting go of old ways of thinking and being sensible and grounded in your new thought process, change through putting the effort in today.  The Moon also tines Mercury in Virgo and Jupiter in Virgo,  so both of those the planet of communication and the planet of luck  are very receptive to people doing practical concrete  work and when you align yourself with that energy and just get down to nitty gritty and get down to business things will go very well for you.

Finally the Moon squares Uranus in Aries. Uranus is the planet that rules surprise and all things unexpected. Its influence is that of heightened frequencies, unpredictable actions and innovate imagination. Uranus’ influences us to break rules and demolish old patterns creating opportunity for sudden radical change.So today there is going to be a fiery spark in the air today, a spark of the unexpected. This gift will only happen  if you put the work in. The universe will surprise you by stepping in and giving you an opportunity as a result of the work you have put in today , something that you would normally never plan for.

Today is a day about getting the work done and reaping the rewards.

This is a Full Moon and a Luna Eclipse week, so some of you may be feeling the build up of the of Luna energies.  Since the full moon pours down a tremendous amount of energy some may feel emotional, impulsive, quick to snap, unable to sleep and well some may see others acting out.

Have a great day
