Full Moon in Aquarius 18/8/16

Published on by andycandypantsLeave a comment

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.

This week in astrology 04/07/16

Published on by andycandypantsLeave a comment

This week in astrology….

The start of the week we get a New Moon in Cancer. This beautiful manifesting New Moon occurs on Monday, July 4th, 2016, at 7:01 AM EDT

The New Moon in Cancer on July 4, 2016 is the commencement of a new Luna cycle., thus ending the Gemini New Moon. Cycle. This month not only is the Sun is in Cancer, Venus is in Cancer and Mercury is in Cancer. Oh La La.

So what does this mean..

The Sun is in Cancer from June 20-July 22. We Cancerians are very self-protective and do a lot of inward looking, so many of you may experience this energy under this cosmic influence. Emotions run deep with us Cancerians and so any of you could experience the waves and floods of emotions we experience daily for no reason. We are more susceptible to the ups and downs of the Moon; even more so while the Sun is in Cancer. Nurturing and taking care of our loved ones including pets comes into focus. But remember to take some self-care as this cardinal sign often neglects their own needs. I am very guilty of this!! Attentions will be turned into our homes, love nest and most of all our loved ones and families, anything that makes you feel safe and secure.

From June 29-July 13 Mercury is in Cancer. Mercury is the planet that rules communication and thought process. While it resides in the sign of cancer it will be less of the logical mind thinking and reasoning and more gut level way of feeling, thinking, speaking and perceiving. With Mercury in Cancer you wont want to understand or be interested in things on face or surface value instead you will dive into the root of things, on a deep emotional level not a superficial one. Intellect and emotion mix to the point of inseparability.

Venus hmm the planet of love and abundance is in Cancer from June 17-July 12. When Venus is in the sign of Cancer , it is very  nurturing, with elements of  self-protective and  cautiousness , and protectiveness of loved ones, Venus in cancer can also be very fertile.In Cancer, Venus can make us  experience many emotional  ups and downs in love. We become tender,  impressionable , attached,devoted, romantic, Cancer love is warm and sensitive .

Don’t be surprised if you have the urge to be affectionate,caring, over protective, sociable, cuddly, cute and mushy .

Have a great week, happy birthday and happy New Moon to all my Moon children.

Happy Manifesting

Letting go 

Published on by andycandypantsLeave a comment

“In the process of letting go, you will lose many things from the past. But you will find yourself….It will be a permanent Self, rooted in Awareness & Creativity. Once you have captured this, you have captured the world.”

‘Deepak Chopra’

The path to happiness is often a path of letting go, removing what no longer serves you and not adding to or gaining something. Learning to let go of the past, in particular, emotions, attitudes, bad habits, draining relationships and any other “baggage” that is holding you back is the key to our inner happiness and long overdue healing. In order to make way for amazing wonderful things to come we must leave our comfort zone and “Let go”.

Learning to let go can be somewhat scary, but it is essential!! Learning to let go of old ideas, people, habits and any other situation that no longer serves you is the key to inner balances and self-growth.

A huge block to “letting go” for personal growth is that the future is always unknown. The future is unpredictable, and by letting go, a part of us feels as we may loose an essential part of our life, our identity, a friendship, and a major element of our past, our personality, family or values. This can be a stumbling block, but to truly move forward and embrace what the future has we have to shed our old skin, move forward.

Here is some great examples of dysfunctional living habits that are worth reconsidering and letting go of, they can offer you a temporary relief, but in the long run just add stress, strain and are just simply unhealthy for the mind body and soul.

  • Avoiding work obligations and procrastinating.
  • Excessive alcohol consumption.
  • Emotional eating.
  • Consuming too much sugar, junk food.
  • Smoking.
  • Skipping meals.
  • Avoiding exercise.
  • Late nights.
  • Abusing prescription & illegal drugs.
  • Stimulants.
  • Taking on to many obligations.
  • Staying in draining, abusive, emotional dysfunctional relationships.
  • Self harm – physically, emotionally or mentally.
  • Not allowing “Personal” time.
  • Not enough sleep
  • Excessive caffeine, soft drinks and energy drinks consumption

Try and commit to yourself and let go of these habits!! Swap one bad habit for a good habit, instead of emotionally eating yourself to a larger dress size, take it our on the cement  (pavement) and walk out any frustrations, sadness or anger! Instead of staying up late, record that TV show and treat yourself the next day after work..

You are worth the effort; the key to life is balance and happiness! Move ahead and let go of your past, more, not less of your personality and gifts will manifest

I know what I will be letting go of, and now that we have a Full Moon in transit in the past week it makes for a great time to sit down with yourself, and really think long, hard and deep about what is not working in your life? What feels like resistance in your world? is it that job, or a bad habit (like excessive sugar consumption), worrying about your diet or if you have enough time to please everyone ( whilst neglecting your own needs) .

Full Moon in Scorpio 2016

Published on by andycandypants1 Comment

Full Moon in Scorpio 2016

I can promise you, this moon will be a big one. ..

This month we will experience a powerful Full Moon in Scorpio on April 22, 2016. This supercharged Full Moon will amplify our desires. Scorpio is a passionate sign, in everything it touches, self, relationships, work and play and this energy sets the stage for meaningful personal transformation this Full Moon.

Scorpio’s are intense and feel things deeply. So prepare for a Full Moon of extremes. Full Moons often leave us supercharged, some of us have intense dreams, some of us can’t sleep at all, some may have extra energy or become flat, and if you are anything like me you become super sensitive in more ways than one…Even if you don’t follow astrology one can’t deny that energy is charged up and you at one point in your life you have felt different when a Full Moon approaches.

The passionate, dramatic intense waters of Scorpio seem to be in direct opposition to our practical drive to survive this Full Moon and this can cause tension between our inner and outer worlds, causing some of us to reach a breaking point. Have you felt the pull and push of late?

Full Moons are like axis that balance’s the energy between the Moon and the Sun, the balance of the yin and the yang, our job during this period is find a balance whilst everything is at it’s fullest extreme. Trying to juggle these cosmically opposed forces and find a balance of our receptive and the expressive self.

The Sun is in Taurus during this Moon phase and will act as an anchor this week to help hold us to our current path without getting to lost in the paradigms of Venus romantic influence who is dancing alongside wild Uranus. These comic influences will strike a chord in our personal desires as our personal relationships become an experimental playing field as this Scorpion Full Moon bring up desires of strong intense desires, emotional and sexual running deep in our conscious.

The Moon is where our feelings live and when the Moon is full, feelings and energy can be at their peak. Be cautious of emotional discontentment, as this is a time where past feelings can stir and rise up, so fight the urges to be moody, snappy, suspicious and secretive. By giving into these negative emotions can block your very heightened creative energy, so just stop.. breath.. and don’t feed the negative emotions any more fuel!! Happy, powerful creative thinking is what needs to be practiced during this Full Moon.

This Moon will propel us forward in delving into the deep mysteries of our hearts and will also allow us to follow our heart with decisive action. This Full Moon the Universe is waking us up to our deepest, highest desires, it will also give us a nudge and the potential to achieve our desires and the courage to go after them. Scorpio’s don’t just settle, they go big or not at all, so this Moon is challenging each and every one of us to Go Big.

Full Moons are a time that bring closure to matters, big and small. During this moon, it is time to stop talking and start doing, we need to rely on our actions to say what needs to be said. The Full moon in Scorpio’s energy will shine a light onto anything hidden, on parts of us that we choose to lock away and ignore the most, parts of our self we never act on or heal, sometimes so much so that it’s time to stop the doubting self – talk and start the doing, start healing.

Death and rebirth is the theme of the week (Not in a physical sense). We cannot receive the new in our life until we purge the old, old pattern’s and emotions that no longer serve you along with releasing old energy, send it all to the light for transmutation.  It is good for focusing and doing psychic work because of the deep emotions and desires Scorpio brings.

There is great energy this month to complete things that may not of received your full attention last month. Maybe you felt to scattered or the energy did not feel right at the time?! the good news is.. you will have the means and strength to focus on these certain areas and complete what needs to be done.

~ So this Full Moon ~

  •  It’s truly a time to go big or not at all!

  •  Don’t give into the tension, and there is no mistake there will be tension, internal and externally!

  •  It’s time to step outside your comfort zone, Be Courageous!!

  •  You are being asked to feel this Moon, instead of thinking, and to ACT instead of think.

  •  Forge ahead as this Full Moon you will have a very strong sense of purpose.

  •  Solving mysteries and getting to the root of the issue!

  •  Death and Rebirth, Purge the old and make way for the New!!

  •  Purging intense emotional matters that no longer serve you, such as obsession, shame or guilt.

  •  Intensity, extremes, physic awareness and a heightened sensitivity.

 Happy Full Moon

The Moon An Ancient Guide

The Moon As A Guide

Humans have gazed up at the nighttime sky for thousands of years, looking for meaning and guidance from the moon and stars. If you think about it, its really amazing how the Moon has a profound effect on the Earth, the gravity it generates is powerful enough to stir up and move water in our oceans , causing high and low tides.

The revolution of the Moon around the Earth makes the Moon appear as if it is changing shape and colour in the sky, but as we all know the Moon doesn’t generate any light itself,  its illuminating glow  is just the reflection of the light caused by the different angle of the Sun, in which we see as the bright part on the Moon’s surface.

The moon is our closest neighbor in space, and the moon has a profound effect on the Earth and on the human imagination. The moon & its phases were understood as early as 500 BC by the Greeks.  The shadow it cast is dark enough to obscure our sun in a solar eclipse. Its brilliance can illuminate a traveler’s path on a long winter’s night.

Being aware of the moon and seasonal changes has always been important to those who choose to focus the lunar energy on their goals and objectives, the moon cycles were used to keep track of seasons, and thus designated different agricultural markers.

In most neo-Pagan and Wiccan traditions, the names given to the various moon cycles are based upon a couple of different sources. the moon cycles were used to keep track of seasons, and thus designated different agricultural markers. The farmers almanacs ( An Almanacs is a calendar containing events such as phases of the moon, tides,sunrises and sunsets, astronomical or meteorological information,including future positions of celestial objects, star magnitudes, and culmination dates of constellations and other statistical information and related topics.) Where based on lunar cycles. The phases of the moon were very important to the farmer’s who timed their harvesting according to the moons cycles.
Knowing the moons phases can help you plan and prepare for change, new beginnings and endings. Ancient ways can still be used in modern times, working with the moons energy increases your own personal power and supports your intention. it is used in goal setting and self-empowerment,  and, of course, the moons energy play’s an important role for people that use the various phases of the moon in ritual work, magic and other ceremonies.

Rituals undertaken during certain moon phases can be enhanced by using the moon and its cycles for specific purposes.

Full moon approaches

~We are in a transformational time right now~

The full Moon Eclipse Energies always bring huge change and fast movement on our Paths! Time to revisit our new moon wishes and intentions we made two weeks ago , and start putting in some action and Innovation towards achieving them!! So making any Small steps, large steps & any intentions to move towards the goals we set for ourselves will amplify the chances of our dreams coming true.

Today the moon crosses into Virgo & as Mercury the communications planet, moves into Aries, it’s going to be easier to speak up for ourselves. Oh yes , don’t doubt your shy inner nature to speak up you will have the extra spark and energy of Aries, as it is this zodiac ruled by the Fire Element, and most Aries are quite free-spoken and straightforward.

Aries is the sign that crashes through life with a lot less fear than most  but it is our turn time to step through the portal!take a leaf from there book,  Leave the past behind, and step into the bright future that lies before you!

Today i have pulled from the ~Messages From Your Angels ~

By Doreen Virtue

CLOSE YOUR EYES AND ASK YOURSELF A QUESTION THAT HAS BEEN PLAYING ON YOUR Mind…

WHAT WAS THE FIRST THING THAT CAME TO YOU’RE MIND?

Patience

Although you may be aching to begin a new project, now is not the time.

You are in the vital phase of gathering right now. This means that you’re acquiring new information through studying, reading, meditating, channeling, taking classes, interviewing experts, and other means. In all of life, there is a time for gathering and a time for planting.

It is too soon for you to decide how you will use the new information that you’re absorbing. You may have some ideas, though, so it might be wise to write them down for future use. Soon enough, you will be called into action to apply your knowledge in useful ways. When that happens, you will be very busy and work very hard. So, enjoy the present moments of ambiguity and rest.

Allow yourself to be an empty vessel into which Heaven pours the contents of its library of wisdom. Your unique talents will blend with this wisdom, and synthesize it into a new and important way to bring peace to this planet.
