The Sun in Scorpio is moving towards a semi-square to Saturn in Capricorn.

The Moon moves out of Capricorn and into Aquarius.

As you wake up today, the morning energy building may leave you feeling anxious and stressed! As the Sun in Scorpio is moving towards a semi-square to Saturn in Capricorn! As this building tension and friction is arising between our conscious self and the lord of karma and master teacher we will be faced with conflicting and harsher energies!Responsibility along with frustrations and limitations will arise today leaving us feeling unsettled. The key for today is to breath and mindful! This is not a day to be controlling however it is a day to control your own reactions and responses so that you are able to answer reasonably rather than react in situations you face.

The Moon moves out of Capricorn and into Aquarius. Meaning we will start to detach from society, old patterns of thinking and feeling and what people call the “Norm”. Break out of your normal routines and unhealthy patterns that hold you back. Engage with the unusual or misunderstood today, as it will help you to open up surprise conversations and activities. Use the influence of this objective Aquarius Moon to break free of bad habits and old toxic ways of thinking and being. Today try to be more rebellious and spontaneous.. To a degree!

The Sun in Scorpio trines retrograde Neptune in Pisces, as we head towards this trine aspect which will help us align our conscious self and the planet that represents our spirituality, intuition and mysticism. As the day goes on we may get sudden burst of inspiration, our creativity increases as well as our romantic and dreamy side. Its also great news for all the artistic folk out there. We are ready to align and to tap into our intuition so pay special attention to emotions and inner experience. There are wonders out there to discover with this influence so do not dismiss anything that comes such as ideas and thoughts to quickly. Pay attention to emotions, intuition and inner experience. there are riches there to discover.

The Sun in Scorpio sesquiquadrates retrograde Chiron in Pisces. This will create unwanted pressure and possible friction between our conscious self and ego and the part of use that need’s healing and transformation.The Wounded Healer has the ability to can bring up old wounds and pains particularly around past hurts and old emotions that have been stuffed away or you deny exist. Today be willing to face what is within or what has surfaced is the key!

The Taurus Full Moon illuminates beauty, Love and Sensuality! 2018

Published on by andycandypantsLeave a comment

 

Happy Full Moon Day! This Full Moon is going to be something else! The Full Moon enters Taurus today. I like most I have felt the energy of this Full Moon build all week. A Full Moon is when the Sun in Scorpio at 1 degrees fully illuminates the Moon, it also conjuncts Retrograde Venus in 4 degrees Scorpio. The Moon also conjuncts Uranus.

The Scorpio Sun at 1 degree wants some sort of emotional experience and Venus in retrograde at 4 degrees tells us that we are entitled and deserve to have an amazing emotional experience. The energy reminds you that “Yes” are meant to explore, experiment, have fun and live a little. It also invites us to dig deep, to seek and experience things you have never experienced before. Perhaps on the naughtier side of life. This week Venus and the Sun are both in a planetary placement that tempt you to try out new things, be adventurous behave in ways you normally wouldn’t.

The Full Moon is when the Sun sits opposite to the Moon at 180 degrees from each other. Full Moons are a time of strengthened intuition, heightened emotions, and you can observe unusual activity happening around you or occurring to other people. I can tell you the Full Moon makes my pets a little loony, and others can report some sleep disturbances!

This Full Moon in Taurus astrological speaking, with the rest of the universe in play is going to be pretty much bag of mixed energies. As I mentioned earlier we are in a Retrograde Venus however we also have Uranus, the planet of sudden change, revolt and the unexpected conjunct the Full Moon!

So my dear friends, ready or not BIG CHANGE is coming for us… The real challenge for us is going to be are we ready to embrace change, all the positive side and traits of Scorpio? Are you ready to go beneath the surface? To really let go of yourself and to feel intensely? Are you ready to allow yourself to transform? We must remember for change to occur we need to release old patterns and habits along with any old attachments. We must let our old identity die so we can embrace whatever change life throws at us. Particularly with all these retrograde about, telling and showing us the old beliefs that needs transforming.

This month’s Moon will be illuminated with Taurus energy that will shine down on us. Taurus energy is all about the real world, stability, structure,  finances, practicality, money, wealth, relationships, enjoying life, food, being grounded in nature, sensuality, physical body and beauty. This Full Moon is going to urge us to do something, to create something wonderful, something physical or birth something new in any of the areas I just mentioned.  This Full Moon is about  putting yourself out there and experience all the sensuality the world has to offer. Uranus the planet of eccentricity is sitting on top of Taurus stirring the pot for unexpected, radical excitement and unexpected change. This along with Venus retrograde will help illuminate you with all those twisted desires and energies that will results in physical manifestations and actions that in no means would you normally act on.

This Full Moon being in the sign of Taurus, will feel comfortable and safe. The Moon likes sitting in this sign, as we know the Moon represents our feelings and inner world. Taurus is about solidity and sensuality in aspects not only physical but in our taste, our touch, or views, using all the senses. Taurus is about if you can sense it and touch it, than it is real. The Moon in Taurus wants us to take a change, get rid of the feelings of old, the feelings that weigh you down and blur your vision of the beauty that is around you. Take all that stagnant, emotional energy and stomp it on the ground. Awaken your senses be alive! This transformational Full Moon combined with the Sun in Scorpio is really guiding us to in touch with our own complexity and how we respond in any relationship.

 

Happy Full Moon week!

The Moon enters Gemini.

Venus enters Virgo.

Don’t be surprised if you wake up this morning with an overriding desire to procrastinate, this is due to the Moon still being in Taurus this morning. When the Moon is in Taurus we seek creature comforts, overindulging in foods and well.. we love to be lazy and lounge around.

This laid back attitude procrastination  in part is also to do with Mercury forming a square aspect to Jupiter that happens in the early hours of the day. You may feel strongly resistant to others direction and advise.We also search for meaning to our life and our place in life. This is a day you don’t want a boss or an authority figure at work. Oftentimes this energy leads to exaggeration or misjudgment so be careful in the way you speak to or with others. The procrastination will fall away by lunch time as the Moon enters Gemini. The mood lightens up and conversation became more interesting, intelligent and witty.  You can re-engage with whatever needs to be done with less internal protest.

Venus leaves playful Leo behind to enter humble Virgo until August 6th.Venus has been in Leo since the June 13th, and lets say this is not a modest and humble sign.  However now it is in Virgo expect to be more discerning in your relationships as well as you develop some refinement. Your eye is on the smallest details when it comes to romance, beauty and the finer things in life. When Venus is in Virgo we expect nothing but refinement. We are focused on vanity and on pretensions to perfection. During Venus transit through Virgo the way we express love and beauty will be through earthy practical means such as gestures, mastering the fine details of your relationships and  being of service to others and devoted. This transit gives all of us the opportunity to take a step backwards and review your current relationships both personal and business. To figure out what is working in our relationships.. and what isn’t. It’s a great time to work harder on our partnerships to strengthen them for the better.

However, the shadow side of this position is being very overly critical of our partners and friends. Outlining imperfections and being too picky. Venus in Virgo makes us more reserved when it comes to matters of the heart, we can become very shy and cautious in love. Watch out for closing yourself off and making yourself as indispensable as possible in order to protect your heart and to not let people in.

 

Happy Monday!

Sharing is Caring! 02/07/2018.

The Moon enters dreamy Pisces.

The Moon sextiles Uranus in Taurus.

The Pisces Moon sextiles Saturn in Capricorn.

The Moon leaves Aquarius behinds to enters dreamy Pisces. The Moon in Pisces has a sensitive energy and it leaves us feeling more emotional, creative, spiritual, caring passionate and intuitive! Which means these wonderful traits are awakened within us. The Moon than sextiles Uranus in Taurus. This positive and harmonious relationship with the great rebellious planet means we will have great new outrages ideas to old stale problems! The energy is also about personal freedom and self revolution!

The Pisces Moon then forms another harmonious sextile to Saturn in Capricorn. Saturn is all about structure and  hard work. Today we will find that we are more empathetic and have deep compassion and connection with others, this will be combined with the focus and hard-working strategies of Saturn in Capricorn to help us to break down barriers! The key for today is to help others by lending them your special expertise! Whether this is listening, work skills, your time, ideas or a simply compassionate smile! It’s also a great day to put in the ground work and make to effort to heal yourself, especially if it is YOU who really needs this TLC energy.  If times are especially hard at the moment or you are in an upheaval stage of your life, this energy is perfect to lighten the load! This could mean you sit and mediate on answers you need or meditate and hand over your problems to the universe, get some Reiki or a de-stressing massage.

Just a heads up, this week is full of water energy! Water is about the other side, intuition, healing, emotions and spirituality! This is a time when the Universal veil is thin and making connection to the other side will be easy. So look out for life’s synchronicity, repetitive numbers, write down your dreams and listen to your gut feelings! The other side may be trying to get a message to you!

 

Happy Monday!

Be string and take risks 08/05/2018.

The Moon is in Aries.

Mercury in Gemini quincunxes retrograde Pluto in Capricorn.

 

You should wake up this morning feeling strongly driven! If like me I was able to  and able to tap into fierce determination and cut procrastination in the butt and get my jobs done. It’s a day for self courage. Find a way to use that intestine positive ” go and get them ” energy before it slips into impatience, agitated and aggressive energy. If you are feeling short-tempered or aggressive, it is best to go for a run, take it out on a punching bag or flirt with the idea of a hot sexual encounter or date. It is a day  to take on a challenge, be competitive, take a risk, prove something to yourself.

Mercury in Gemini quincunxes retrograde Pluto in Capricorn. Hmm, there will be some   tension between our  logical mind and thought [process and  the Lord of the Underworld and transformation.Mercury in Gemini prefers things to be light, witty, carefree and social. Pluto, on the other hand, asks us m, well demands us to  go down into the depths our being and find what is bugging us and what needs to be let go and transmuted. This aspect is good for therapy especially if you can find a great friend to talk with, and perhaps over a social dinner or a wine.

Have a great weekend and happy Friday!

The Moon is in Libra Moon.

Retrograde Jupiter in Scorpio trines Neptune in Pisces.

When you awake this fine Friday morning you will awake with a soft gentle reassurance of where you find yourself in your life. As expansive and abundant Jupiter forms a flowing trine aspect to dreamy Neptune. Tapping into the deeper reservoirs of our Spirit and Soul is very possible, as both planets are in both bodies of water (signs) which highlights and nurtures our interest in creativity, art, our intuition and psychic perception and abilities.

The alignment of these two planets means a joining of our spirituality and expansive energy to help us transit into our passions, dreams and inner depths. With the powerful transformative energy of Scorpio and the dreamy healing energy of Pisces, it’s a great time to explore our spirituality, empathy, mystical pursuits, healing and being of service to others. Keep your heart open today, no matter what challenges you may face, it’s a day for unconditional love This transit between Jupiter and Neptune began in December and goes till August this year,  so make good use of the energy it provides us.

The Moon is in Libra, meaning that we are inclined to focus on relationships and especially finding a harmonious balance in our relationships. Whether its personal, for pleasure, business or friendship, you will find yourself being diplomatic and ready to initiate a conversation if it means healing and mending it! It’s a great day for romance and love enjoy!

 

Happy Friday and have a great weekend.

Quarter Moon in Libra.

Moon in Libra lines forms a trine aspect to both the Sun in Gemini and Mars in Gemini.

Your spirits feel quite a float as you begin the day today with the Quarter Moon newly in peace-loving and harmonious Libra. The Quarter Moon phase is the mid way point between a New Moon and Full Moon. This ‘Half Moon’ point in the Luna cycle, means that we are half way to manifesting our dreams, but it also indicates a crisis point and you may start to have a few doubts about your ability to manifest your goals. However, lucky for us the Libra Moon means we seek a balance and harmonious energy for the day. Our thoughts are balanced and we have the ability to see both sides of any situations. Today, engage in kindness and diplomacy. Focus your energy and attention on bringing a certain peace, love and beauty to all people and situations you encounter.

A Grand Trine is formed as the Moon in Libra lines up to a trine aspect to both the Sun in Gemini and Mars in Gemini. This is a lovely way to begin the day!By the time we reach midday, we may face some challenges as the Libra Moon forms difficult aspects to both Venus and Saturn. When the planet of love and relationships clashes with restrictive Saturn we may notice  yourself or others being moody or  cranky. use Libra’s Moon energy to find harmony and generosity in relationships if you see a change in your attitude or others around you!

Have a great day!

Day for being grounded and comforted! 18/05/2018!

Mercury in Taurus trines retrograde Saturn in Capricorn.

The Moon is in Cancer.

Today offers us a more stable day as you find your feet more firmly on the ground with Mercury the planet that rules over  thoughts and communication forming a supportive trine aspect to grounded Saturn. Mercury/Saturn is great for having serious conversations, focused thinking, researching and getting real. This earthly grounded energy leaves us with a great insight to the practical side of life, such as work, organisation, learning and any activity that requires critical thinking. Today your energy will be stable and grounded, it is also a good day to talk with family members or friends share a meal and smooth any ruffled feathers. However, just watch out for over focusing on reality and material side of life, especially at the expense of other things.

The Moon spends the day in its home sign of Cancer. This nurturing energy supports our emotional needs as we search for comfort. Be with your loved ones, catch up with friends, throw a dinner party to kick off the weekend or alternatively curl up with a book or snuggle with your pets and/or a loved one and watch a movie with naughty comfort food!  We are still in the New Moon phase, so if you still need to get your New Moon wishes and intentions down you still can do so!

Happy Friday!

Big Changes again as Mars enters Aquarius! 16/05/2018.

Mars enters Aquarius.

Mars Aquarius squares Uranus Taurus.

Good Morning, well much has occurred before you even wake up today morning. Mars has left grounded Capricorn behind where it has over the past weeks been pushing us to focus our attention on a serious agenda of work and ambition. Mars has now entered into Aquarius where he will remain until mid-November this year. When Mars is in Aquarius the energy is less predictable. Your own interests, motivation and energy level will be the same. Expect to find yourself focused either your own achievements or alternately you may be more interested in group dynamics. Mars in Aquarius is great for detaching yourself from your emotions, especially ones such as anger when in difficult situations.

Mars is the planet of action and direction and its known for its ability to provoke anger, and war. Uranus is the planet of defiance, its unpredictable, unexpected, its energy is one of innovation and revolution.During this transit, choose to find the excitement, love the unexpected, reach for inspiration, and seek unusual change. Also we should keep in mind to watch the world, your life and the lives of those you encounter. Watch the news and its headline stories I can tell you know things will start to unravel especially when Mars and Uranus are now playing poker against one and other. However, we do need to watch out during this square aspect that we are not over reactive and haste full, our moods and emotions have the ability to jump from 0 to 100 and frustrations, anger and moodiness are very possible and could cost you. The positive side of life is that we can really reach our full potential and are able   to do radically innovative things in sudden and unexpected ways that even surprise yourself!

Mars Aquarius squares Uranus Taurus, Creating major tension and friction between the planet that rules our will and driver and our inner warrior and the big rebel. Uranus in Taurus and Mars now entering Aquarius sets these two dynamic power players up for an intensely challenging conversation. Uranus and Mars will form three highly challenging square aspects with each over the coming months. We are experiencing one now, There will be one now, another again in August, and finally the last in September. Over the coming days we will experience our first taste of the story to be, in August we will get to know the plot before we see the full conclusion in September.

If you haven’t made your New Moon intentions it’s not to late! get wishing.

Happy Hump Day.
