Venus in Taurus sextile Neptune in Pisces.

Mercury is in Gemini  sextiles Uranus in Aires.

The Moon is in Taurus.

This week really is the luckiest week for love and romance all year, its unreliable with all the planetary interactions how blessed in the love department we are! So those of you who are hesitant in making a leap of love and faith do so!

Neptune is the dreamy planet of aspirations in the cosmos. Its rules Pisces and when it sits in Pisces its in heaven, its home and is comfortable. Venus and Neptune together expands the  dreaming of love and the love of romance and when they to come together anything is possible.

Mercury is in Gemini , also a major personality planet sitting in its ruling sign and it sextiles Uranus in Aires. This gives us a very strong desire to communicate. Mercury/Uranus aspect is great for thinking outside the box, being innovative, and seeing/communicating information that is before it’s time! However just be mindful on the content you desire to communicate out, watch your thoughts as they turn into words whether its positive, negative and vice versa when dealing with others. Ignore the negativity.

Today keep your ears and eyes open for any unusual ideas, thoughts or flashes of inspiration. Today is a good day to go ahead and jump at any opportunity to expand the directions of your mind.

The Moon is Taurus today .Wow not only is the emotional Moon in sensual Taurus, but the planet Love is also in Taurus all coming together. That makes today the ideal day for love, romance and all thing smoochy.
The Taurus Moon would also love nothing more than to be laid-back, alone and pushing us to over indulge our naughty senses,  food,wine and over spending money watch out for binge eating and online shopping . However that Venus and Neptune sextile is softly pushing us to make romantic connections. The key word is softly, so no  running head first in with flowers in hand begging for a date or falling completely head over heals and being silly. Neptune has a great gift at making things seem a lot greater than they are.

If you are single today will be the day that people will be responding to you, go on that date, ask that girl out at the coffee shop today, and say yes if someone brings you flowers and ask you out, take a leap of faith the universe has your back today. For the those who are in a relationship spend some quality time together, it’s not the amount of time its the quality of time because it really is about love and romance connection at its best.

Remember, this is the last day with the Sun and Mercury will be in versatile Gemini, enjoy the chatter and the quickly moving mind.  Both bodies will enter amazing Cancer early into the day tomorrow and then meet in the sign later morning. ( if you can’t tell me and my sister are a Moon childs and its my birthday week).

 

Have a great day!

The Moon is in Libra.

The Moon quincunxes the Sun in Taurus and opposes Mercury in Aires and Uranus in Aires.

Happy Monday everyone. Just heads up this week is a little yin and yang.One day we will experience one thing and the next day the complete opposite.  harsh energy shifts from one extreme to another. Heads up to those who don’t like change or struggle with change , who love consistency and the uncomplicated. Unfortunately this may not be your week. This week is going to provide us with high and low energy and it will be all over the place.

The Libra Moon quincunxes the Sun in Taurus and opposes Mercury in Aires as well as Uranus in Aires. So we see Mercury the communication planet and Uranus the planet of rebelling both in the sign of Aires. With both these planets in Aires we can become very forceful, and much more confident in the way we communicate we will have a sense that you are always right, highly confident and well cocky. Just be aware before you shoot a loaded gun ( your mouth and temper). However with the lovely energy of Libra beaming down on us we will try to find balance and harmony in our interactions with others.

Today is a very social start to the week. The Moon in Libra who is very relationship orientated,provides us with a great time to be with and connect with others. Spend time with ones you love, especially if of late you have been struggle to find answer to problems or situations. Today is a great time to converse and brain storms with people you trust. think about the fresh perspectives you may get. Today is also a great day to attempt at strengthening and supporting others, both personal and professional.

 

Have a great day!

Friday December 9th, 2016.

The Moon is in Aries.

The Sun in Sagittarius sextiles Jupiter.

 

The Moon remains in bold , hot-headed Aries today. When the Moon is in pioneering Aries our energy will pick up and we can feel a dynamic aspects, that encourage us to pursuit new ideas.

The Moon makes some powerful connections to Pluto, the Sun, Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus. Today can be light-hearted and intense, it’s a wild card day and can present as smooth an exciting, with some moments of stress and aggravation and unexpected surprises.

The Sun in Sagittarius sextiles Jupiter. The Sun in Sagittarius loves moving forward and is very optimistic. Jupiter is the planet of expansion and going large , under this influence we have opportunity to expand, excitement is in the air we are hopeful under this aspect.  We can be especially sociable and generous under this influence.This puts a high positive spin on the day even in the midst of certain momentary aggravations.We may discover opportunities for increased “GO and Get them” vibe, we are more inclined to say  “Yes” today! But be warned this influence is also about having to much of a good thing… Don’t go to far and push people past what they are conformable with doing.  Today some of us can be very overconfident.

It is Friday so how about organizing a catch up with friends after work? have a dinner party? its perfect for friendship and socialization today!

Have a great day and a magic weekend

mars in aquarius squares mean black moon lilith in scorpio at 4:17am, creating tension and friction between the will warrior and drive and the fierce Dark Feminine. this is deifnitely an aspect to bring awareness to rage and anger that is repressed or suppressed. healthy outlets for both are necessary. the tendency to want to rise above and spiritually bypass anger can make it come out in unconscious and destructive ways right now. steer clear of power/control dynamics with others and instead focus your energy and will on having control over your own lower self!
mars in aquarius sextiles retrograde eris in aries at 6:36am, aligning the will and drive with the Goddess of chaos and discord. mars is in the midst of harmoniously aspecting the uranus/eris/ceres conjunction- bringing positive movement and potential for evolution and change in home/family situations and in regards to evironmental situations (like standing rock). mars/eris helps us to take action regarding what is out of control, chaotic and disharmonious. outside of the box thinking is required right now! think long term vision and reward not short term pay off. this astrology facilitates healthy expressions of anger. anger helps us to get clear on what actions need to be taken and then helps us DO them. use mars’ energy wisely right now.
the sun in sagittarius sextiles jupiter in libra at 1:39pm, aligning the conscious self and ego with the planet of expansion and positivity! in the last 2 days the sun has been triggering the jupiter/pluto square (exact in late november and goes until august 2017)- helping us to see what needs to change, evolve, die and/or be reborn in our personal and collective lives. sun/jupiter helps us to see what needs to happen so growth can occur and then helps us take positive, inspired action so that we can realize it. with jupiter in libra the key to expansion is being willing to work with others and find win/win situations. collaboration, compromise and finding common ground is where it’s at right now- personally and on the world stage!

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.
