Full Moon in Gemini and Mercury Turns Retrograde on 03/12/2017!

Full Moon and Mercury Retrograde December, 2017.

This is the Christmas full Moon and it happens at 11 degrees in Gemini. The Full Moon has building up all month and now its reaches its fullest. It is fully illuminated by the Sun in Sagittarius and  is ready to shine down and share with us all this Gemini/Sadge  energy. Full Moons give us more energy, we get supercharged and we feel there is more going on behind the scenes. Being everything is at 11 degrees ie the Sun/ Moon which interesting, as the Moon is sitting at 11 degrees Gemini and if you look at Gemini its symbol is represented by 11. The number 11 is all about new doors opening, a new chapter, a new beginnings and opportunities, it’s about life changing decisions, marriages, partnership, new doors opening and new jobs.

This Full Moon has some significant energy presented to us this month. Gemini is ruled by Mercury, the planet of communication, our thought process, travel and insight. This Full Moon has a great potential for us to make change in our life and to transform it. If you can picture this Full Moon as a magical door way (like Narnia) Opening us up to a magical new life of manifestations, new beginnings and abundance. Its going to be very impressive, and don’t be surprised by this all as 11:11 brings in the help of our guides, god, the universe, angels, ancestors and guardian angels to help you along the way to get you to the moment of awakening and insight.

The Gemini Full Moon brings full illumination to what occurred at the Scorpio New Moon last month on November 18th, 2017. Take out your New Moon wish book, because whatever your focus was on or whatever you began at the New Moon will now show its results, unless the universe has better plans for you!

Traditionally a Full Moon is a time to express ourselves and to let things out of our systems. Release what no longer serves us or holds us back. Out with the old physical, emotional, spiritual and mental baggage to make room for bigger better things. Of course, however we might want to exercise some care and caution while doing so especially in the way we talk, communicate and process our thoughts. As Mercury did station retrograde on the same day. Which means communications, our thinking and taking in information has the potential to be scrambled or misinterpreted and what is coming out of us may not particularly rational, our dialogue can be misread and the way we communicate could be one-sided or misinterpreted.

The Sun is at 11 degrees in Sagittarius and is 180 degrees away from the Moon illuminating it. The Gemini-Sagittarius polarity axis is some what divergent as Gemini represents our “lower mind” and Sagittarius represents our “higher mind” The Sun in Sagittarius itself is all about a higher learning and understanding. Sagittarius persuades us to think in a far broader manner,we seek mystical knowledge, expand our learning in unconventional ways. We want to connect to the divine and embark on care free adventures. Where as a Gemini encourages us to think logically, practically and factual.

Those of us who are abstract thinkers, this Full Moon is really going life the veil and help up reach that higher self and learning, meditating will be great to connect with these other realms and absorbs new information

The Full Moon is almost exact square to Neptune in Pisces at 11 degrees. Neptune in Pisces is happy, it’s a water sign of dreaming illusion, INTUITION, fantasy, denial and escapism. This can points to confusion, as the Gemini Full Moon wants to be clear, logical with clarity,but when this planet ( Neptune) is involved, it may make things foggy and unclear.

Traditionally Full Moons are about clearing out the clutter, releasing what no longer serves us, gaining clarity and recognition, and Gemini energy especially demands we see reality and logic. Of course with this Neptune’s square to the Moon reality may be hard to see unfortunately. Be smart and grab what information is given to you. If you are in denial and outright avoiding reality or are unsure with what information or situations you are given, retreat, go home snuggle in your safe place and sift through the information that is given. Your guts or “intuition” will let you know whats right for you.

The ruler of this Gemini Moon is Mercury, who may I add just stationed retrograde late last night. Mercury has turned retrograde at 29° Sagittarius. Mercury has a wonderful way to make us return to a past problem or discussion and revise and review, but on a positive note with a critical eye. Communication within yourself and others can be misunderstood and miscommunication, it’s important to keep in mind we are in Mercury Retrograde and that we don’t have the full story and information the same as others are being affected just like us. There are easy ways to survive Mercury Retrograde over the next 3 weeks. Get a notebook and a pen out. Make a list of everything that you have begun but haven’t completed in the past few months, house jobs, issues that have been bugging you, that certain talk with someone you have been avoiding, organisation of your car, work and home, that art piece, your tax, assignments etc.. During the Retrograde, focus on yourself and get to work on accomplish what is on that list! If your mind wonders like me, make sure you accomplish only what is on this list maybe have a reward system in place for when you are done, and hay there is no better feeling than ticking boxes off a to do list.

Remember don’t be afraid, worried, or concerned! Mercury retrograde brings us a great gift, the perfect opportunity to wrap up loose ends and cut cords! The shadow side of Mercury retrograde is that yes travel plans can have hiccups, communication between others can get misinterpreted and lead to problems, appointments booked by yourself, but you turn up and it was never booked in at all, computers and technology can crash,emails and memos can get lost. Anything that Mercury rules over can or may go wrong! Most important don’t be tempted to start new projects, start a new jobs, sign documents (Unless necessary) take on new commitments or commit to new relationships.

 

Happy Full Moon and Mercury Retrograde.

Full Moon in Capricorn 2017.

Published on by andycandypants2 Comments

 

The Full Moon happens in the sign of Capricorn this month. This months Full Moon is going to be a very beautiful, positive transformative Full Moon. This Moon has Pluto sitting right next to it and it has the potential to be life changing.

A Full Moon is when the Sun is exact opposite the Moon at 180 degrees. A Full Moon astrology speaking highlights opposing forces or polarities in our life. Areas can include our home life, work life, our needs, wants and especially our emotional needs verses what our egos want. As the lunar cycle reaches its fullest on the 09/07/2017 our emotions and insists reach their peak, ever felt a tad loony oar emotional responsive around a Full Moon? Full Moons are known to heighten sensitivity that can lead and create inner tension and external pressure that result in a crisis and can drain your energy or heighten it. However with all this new found emotional power and strength, the key is to use it, along with your intuition and the energy and traits of the Moons position in a certain star sign to overcome any challenges. Subconscious awareness during this period allows for an objective and balanced look at your life and your personal relationships.

This July 9th full moon at 17°09′ Capricorn is only one degree away from Pluto. This trasnformative, healing planet of power and intensity transmutes healing and lessons through the process of  destruction and renewal. As emotions are already high during a full Moon they are about to even more all powerful and somewhat all consuming this week. Can you feel the energy building already? As far as Full Moons go this one will be as powerful as they can get.

Moon conjunct Pluto brings such deep and intense feelings to the surface that they can overwhelm you. You may become obsessed about your feelings and have trouble focusing on anything else. Dreams, visions, psychic impressions or intuitive insights may have a profound influence on your mood.

Sun in Cancer opposing the Moon in Capricorn makes the Moon/ Pluto alignment more challenging.

because of the relationship tension it creates. The battles you have with other people can mirror your own inner conflict as you try to reconcile differences between what you want versus what you need.
Sun opposite Pluto brings a crisis either with self-esteem, a relationships or an event. This may be due to a self-destructive character trait such as addiction, spying or stubbornness. In relationships, you may be the subject of, or the perpetrator of, manipulation, jealousy, domination or spying. Events may include the breakdown of an appliance or car, theft, violence, or the destruction of possessions by people or natural disaster.

Full Moon occurs with the Cancer Sun in opposition to the Moon in Capricorn. The Full Moon is a time of culmination and the promise of fulfillment of that which was started at the New Moon. It is an emotional time—a time of romance, fertilization, and relationships.
The Cancer-Capricorn polarity concerns the balance between the private life, domesticity, the need for a home base, and nurturance (represented by Cancer) versus the public life, career, reputation, and accountability (represented by Capricorn). Attachments and love are ruled by Cancer, while achievements and rewards/punishments are ruled by Capricorn. In some ways, this polarity deals with the balance between unconditional love and conditional love. Cancer encourages us to value our home base and our roots, while Capricorn persuades us to consider our sense of duty and responsibility along public or professional lines. While Cancer may be content to be dependent, Capricorn urges us to be grown-up and responsible. Cancer represents the origin, and Capricorn represents the goal. Neglecting either end of the axis will surely backfire on us. Ideally, a balance should be found between the two energies, and this is what the Full Moon invites us to do. This Full Moon is about balancing our commitment to our career and families. Something has been building inside of us, and now is the time when the energy of the cosmos fairly demands that we let it out. Over the next two weeks, we will discover what this means for us. For now, we can’t sit on our feelings. We need to express them.
The Full Moon illuminates this conflict between roots and direction. With the Moon full and bright in the sky, symbolic “illumination” occurs in our own lives. However, these new feelings and revelations are emotional ones, as there is a sense of emotions bursting forth into our consciousness. It’s time to express ourselves and to let things out of our systems. Of course, we might want to exercise some care while doing so, knowing that what is coming out of us is fresh, unrefined, and not particularly rational as yet.

Full Moon in Sagittarius 09/06/2017

Published on by andycandypants1 Comment

Full Moon in Sagittarius is occurring today June 9th , 2017. The Moon will be full and it’s furthest to Earth all month, making this Full Moon the years only Micro Full Moon!

A Full Moon is a time where the Sun and Moon are both at 180 degrees. The Sun shines and illuminates the Moon showering down its magical light on us. Full Moon are the strongest part of the luna cycle energetically speaking. People usually feel the effects of the Moon when it is Full and the few days before and after.

This Full Moon will be very interesting, as we see the Sun in Gemini at 18 degree, and is a very positive energy. The Sun when in Gemini is all about new ideas, communication, thinking, fun and seeing the bigger picture.  An air sign, Gemini wants to bring people and ideas together. Being at 18 degrees, 1 plus 8 equals 9 and 9 in numerology is about spirituality and completion. Epiphanies can happen for us now, likely related to our beliefs, intuition, and faith. So for us the Sun is about having fun but it’s also focusing and thinking about the bigger picture and the context of life, who we are, how others impact on us and how you impact on others. This energy will combine with Sagittarius energy also at 18 degree being showered down on us by the Full Moon!

Sagittarius energy is represented by the centaur, its half horse and half man always armed and with a pointed in a direction bow and arrow. He is adventurous, fun, interested in learning, teaching and exploring. So in a sense we can expected these qualities to enter our life and our system and we gain a want to become more outgoing, explore the world around us. We become interested in learning and discovery. Questioning the why? who? and what? With the Moon and the Sun both being at 18 degrees which adds up 9, I think our direction and focus this month will be on higher spiritual learning, wisdom and exploring your own spiritual journey. This energy will encourage us to discover and deepen the connection of the path you may be already on, or wanting to begin exploring!

The Full Moon is also the time when our emotions rise up to the surface, they especially love to come up for you to deal with them. Instead of fighting them and pushing them back down, if you work with them, you can clear yourself out energetically and emotionally. The easiest way to do this is to make peace with yourself , think about what you have been through over the past month and leave all that baggage exactly where it happened – the past! Forgiveness and letting go is the key to get through a Full Moon. You may be surprised by how easily you can let past hurts go.

During Full Moons our bodies can experience shifts and show signs of release and purging. Some of us may be detoxing, some may experience blocked nose, head colds and sinus problems. Some may find physical symptoms such as achy muscles, sore backs and general feeling of anxiousness this is due to our souls calling back to our bodies and asking us to reconnect and ground our selves. Slow down, meditate, take a bath and have some alone time.

The energy this month is going to be fun and adventurous ,which may come to most as a sigh of relief. Use this Sagittarius energy wisely, ground yourself as we can quite suddenly see the big picture, and this can lead to important revelations. In this process we must check our facts and be aware that miscommunication, have all the information before leaping into the next stage!Watch for too-quick decisions, as The Sun in Gemini and the Moon in Sagittarius seek to find balance, and do pay close attention to what‘s illuminated now.

Sagittarius Luna energy is wise and expansive. Whenever the Full Moon is in Sagittarius it has the ability to amplify our thoughts and feelings and bring more information to the surface. So what question should you be asking yourself this Full Moon? What do you want to learn in regards to the bigger picture? Have you let yourself slip into a state of boredom? What is love? What is the point of being alive? What meaningful experience do I need in order to benefit my higher good?  Use this Full Moon, to gain more clarity about what changes or adjustments need to be made and consequently there will be a peace that will follow. Remember that it’s okay not to know everything.

Happy June Full Moon, i hope this month with all the new philosophical truth you will discover that you can center your life around them and bounce back from any  challenges you face. As now you will have a better understand of situations, your self and how you approach these matters with divine direction and your own unique perspective.

Mars in Gemini trines Jupiter in Libra.

The Moon is still in fun-loving Sagittarius and it trines Venus in Aires. Mars in Gemini trines Jupiter in Libra. Well let’s do another 360 energetically and expect a lot of high energy today! I am taking loads and loads of high energy, and as a bonus its a really lucky day for love, passion, relationships and romance! Make a point of being out and about today. This energy is similar to the Full Moon we had on Wednesday where there is a high chance for love and romance! Ahhh isn’t it nice to have our energy and drive back.

As Mars in Gemini refines its trine with Jupiter the luck planet, we get a confidence and stimulating boost!

Full Moon in Scorpio 2017.

Published on by andycandypants2 Comments

On the 10th May , 2017 we will experience a Full Moon in the sign of Scorpio. The Full Moon as we Know happens once a month. It’s when the Sun and Moon are both at 180o apart and the Sun fully illuminates the Moon with its light. The Moon is at a completion point and reflects the light and showers its energy on us. The Full Moon always has an effect on us no matter who you are.

The Sun will be in Taurus and the Moon will be in Scorpio.

The Sun in Taurus will be at 20 degrees. Taurus is a very practical, earthy grounded sign. In numerology 20 breaks down to 2 and the number 2 is all about relationships and love! The Sun is experiencing this energetically along with all the other Taurus energy which also happens to be about love,relationships, practicality, finances and appearances. So this Taurus energy is also being thrown onto the Moon.

The Moon is sitting in the sign of Scorpio, which is also sitting at 20 degrees. The Moon will shower down on us Scorpio energy. Scorpio is a water sign, its intuitive, creative and emotionally intelligent. Scorpio is not afraid of exploring the dark side, its ruled by Pluto who is about transformation. Scorpio loves going were no other star sign dares to go. It holds extremely powerful and potent energy. It’s willing to look deeper, look at the taboo side of life its other favorable aspect is being able to look at the wounded self in order for healing and transformation to occur. We will be facing and confronting some fears during this Full Moon. Scorpio energy is all about transformation and reaching higher levels of consciousness. So we must awaken, open up our eyes and soul.

As I have mentioned this Full Moon is at 20 degrees and, the number 2 is all about relationships, and deepening and strengthening the connection, for all my single friends out there this is a good time to date and meet new people, use the full moon energy and meet new people, have a drink with the stranger at the bar, Scorpio energy is very intelligent so you will pick up who and who not to give your time to.

Scorpio energy is very much sexual, so for instance you and your partner who once were intimate very regular when you met and have now things have decreased, and well you may not of had the courage to bring this up and talk about it. Use the Scorpio energy to help bring any and all issue to surface. This Full Moon will support and help you and others with your emotionally understanding and help you both to have acceptance to what you are saying without the judgement. You will become open-minded and listen. So make the time, make an effort, wine and dine each other and bring out your inner god or goddess.

This Full Moon in Scorpio you will be feeling an intense emotional energy, you may feel you understand people for the better , life may click, emotionally reasoning will just make sense a lot of Ah Ha moments. Scorpio is very intense emotionally , it very deep and connected. This Full Moon if you and your partner whether its personal or business have been burying an issue deep, this Full Moon is the best time to sit down and talk about it,  clear the air.

This Full Moon is going to represent a turning point in the year for most of us and an opportunity to really embrace and accept any recent changes ( yes changes as much as we dig our heals in if its unwanted). See the failures or mishaps as a blessing, accept that there is a bigger plan and just breath and go with the flow. It going to bring about a powerful transformative shift that will really allow you to move forward.

Fun fact, many ancient cultures and astrologers have always believed that the Scorpio Full Moon is one of the most powerful for reaching out to guardian spirits and ancient ancestors. The high illuminated Scorpio energy has the potential to reach Divine levels of consciousness, so allow yourself to open up reach a new level and see things and the world  in a different light. Meditate under the light of the Moon, re charge your crystals, and with so much magic energy circling around what no better time to create your own Moon ritual and manifest your dreams.

Happy Full Moon!

Full Moon Wednesday 10/05/17

The Full Moon enters Scorpio.

The Moon quincunxes Mars in Gemini, opposes the Sun in Taurus and trines Neptune in Pisces.

Today the Lunar Cycle reaches its pinnacle point. Today we have a Full Moon in the powerful sign of Scorpio.The watery sign of Scorpio holds extremely powerful and potent energy. Its sassy, sensual, deep and very intuitive. This Full Moon will help uncover many mysteries and truths about us and others. I have written a post all about this full Moon in Scorpio for more in-depth look at what to expect.

The Moon quincunxes Mars in Gemini, opposes the Sun in Taurus and trines Neptune in Pisces. Today’s theme is TRANSFORMATION!!!!! All this energy is transformational and healing in a wonderful, positive and beautiful way, especially when it comes to love and romance. Today you will find you have the courage to be brave , you will dream bigger, you will take action, and its all about making your dreams come true along with finding opportunists to make your dreams happen. Keep your eyes, ears and mind open!

What seeds of intention and manifestations did you plant at the New Moon in Taurus two weeks ago? How has that process developed? What obstacles have you faced? What intensity and resistance has developed? Traditionally Full Moons are all about releasing what no longer serves us, it’s a time to release bad habits, fears, doubts, and cut cords of attachment to unhealthy situations, remove blockages so you can co create and manifest your dreams.

The Sun in Taurus opposes the Moon in Scorpio.This Taurus/Scorpio planetary aspect will help us deal with the balance between all that is yours (Scorpio) and all that is mine (Taurus). Finding balance and comprising will be the key for the day, as neglecting either will surely backfire on you.

Remember Full Moons make the energy around very intense and affects people different in all sorts of ways. Today and over the next few days be kind to yourself and others, be understanding, have patience and retrieve if needed. Have you tried a Full Moon ritual? if not here is a guide Full Moon Ritual

Happy Full Moon day!
