Full Moon in Taurus 2017

Published on by andycandypantsLeave a comment

This November’s Full Moon, marks the first of a trilogy of Super Full Moon happening over November & December 2017, followed by one in January 2018.

During a Supermoon, all the energies of a normal Full Moon are heightened!! Eek! Full Moons are already a time of strengthened intuition, emotions running high, spooky things around you occurring, people going a little looney and some experience sleep disturbances! Now that this months Full Moon is closest to earth, all of these key points become electrified!! Expect lucid dreaming, heightened intuition and emotions, synchronicity are becoming more repetitive (the numbers 10:10 have popped up at least 4 times a day for the past week for me) overall energy is running high and people are more sensitive than usual, I know I’ve been one of them!! 

This Full Moon in Taurus astrological speaking with the rest of the universe is going to be pretty much straight forward, it will be grounded, its practical and very uncomplicated in regards to lessons. This Full Moon will be one of feeling at ease, at peace and you will feel like you will finally get that emotional load off your shoulders. It is a relief from all the pressure of Scorpio’s and Chirons intense water energy, that has been forcing us to look inside and do deep emotional inner work. This months Moon will be illuminated with Taurus energy. Taurus energy is all about the real world, stability, finances, practicality, money, enjoying life, food, being grounded in nature, sensuality, physical body and beauty.

The Sun is at 11 degrees in Scorpio and that will conjunct with Jupiter in Scorpio. These two planets are sitting next to each other and bouncing back that sassy Scorpio energy. The Sun astrologically represents our identity, our outer world and who you are. We are in Scorpio season so the focus this month will be on emotions, talking about emotions, discovering new emotions and having the courage to speak up about how you feel to others. Lucky for us we have the Jupiter on our side who is all about luck, abundance and growth. That means all our hidden emotional truths and discoveries are not for nothing. They can impact and have great positive significance on your self, your life and others. Jupiter is about growth and expansion so take this and use it to grow, to heal and expand on building yourself up!

This Sun, being expanded by Jupiter is shining down on us deep emotional, intuitive energy. Sitting exactly 180 degrees away from the Sun is sitting this magnificent Full Moon in the sign of Taurus. These energies than are shining down on us. Full Moon and the Sun are always sitting in the opposite signs of each other in the zodiac. They balance their weakness and build up their strengths. They  invite us to work to achieve a balance between the opposing energies.

Both the Sun and the Moon this month are both sitting at 11 degrees, which is the master number of service, spirituality and higher self growth. Not only will this Full Moon start to make us feel good in our skin, but we will be inspired to take practical actions that help others, such as volunteering, and being of service to others, however and whatever form it comes to you to help. Donate old clothes, de clutter, recycle things. You will really have a sense of how good your life is and how much worse other have it and want to do something about it. Offer your time and help and make a positive contribution. 

This month is November which is also lucky number 11. Like I’ve mentioned 11 is a master number and in numerology it vibrates at a level of divinity, higher purpose, synchronicity, higher self, angels and the spirit world. This energy of the master number 11 is with us for a whole month, so what not better time to work on and tune into our dreams and goals. Where do you feel lack of abundance, love, money, opportunities , time and success? This Full Moon release these fears as you plant and make way for better things to come to you! Out with the old and in with the new! Get clear on what you want and watch the magic grow into reality! 

With all of this in play it makes this Taurus Full Moon quiet a spiritual one! Even though Taurus seem to be the most grounded sign and semi disconnected from all the mystical magic! But let me assure you that if you, like me have felt more intuitive or emotions are very heightened and you want to cry for no reason this week that’s because of this Super Full Moon stirring up the universal energies! 

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 transformation 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.

This week If your intuition tells you something, do yourself a favour and listen, especially during the Full Moon at its peak. Do you feel stuck somewhere in your life? Do you need clarity? especially in areas of love, abundance and success which Taurus dominates, sit in stillness under the illumination of the Moon, ask and listen for the guidances that comes your way. 

The Taurus Full Moon will remind us of the abundance of what we already have, be grateful and thankful for all the positives, as like attracts like. Full Moons are all about releasing what no longer serves a purpose in our life, so get releasing whether its physically, emotionally or spiritually. Make room for the things you want to come into your life!
Transformation will happen this Full Moon so you may as well surrender and evolve with grace and ease.The Full Moon being in Taurus is potent and fertile and can serve as a form of self awakening to our desires and feelings. The Taurus energy will help us have more stability and structure, its an emotional time of romance and relationships. Taurus loves to get out in nature, to really connect with it, get out doors and ground yourself this Full Moon. Have you done a Full Moon ritual?? Get out doors and try one. 

Happy Full Moon Day!

Venus forms a sextile between Saturn.

The Sun Scorpio forms a trine aspect to Neptune in Pisces

The Moon is in Taurus.

In the early morning hours this morning , lovely Venus forms a sextile aspect to mature Saturn. This harmonious aspect will help those in relationships to get real, to get deep and stabilize what you have! This time is great for understanding what your needs are, your values, loyalties and those needs of your partner. It is truly wonderful for really tuning into each other. We do have a Full Moon tomorrow which just adds to you and your partner releasing something that no longer working for you both, lack of time together, passive communication, and helping you understanding each other on the same level.This releasing can be really simple, and really doesn’t need to be hard! Listen to the messages and feelings you are getting, and hay what could be better than a nudge from the Universe to make things better between each other along with strengthening your self-love!

The Moon has entered Taurus this morning, eek so close to being at its fullest! Have you had a stressful week? All this Chiron energy, intense Scorpio energy, healing energy and Saturn energy can be a little harsh on us, so this Full Moon in Taurus will help take some of the edge off  some of the possible feelings of being weighed down, anger and frustration from the last few days. When the Moon is in Taurus we can not help but connect to nature, to yummy food and all things beautiful, it’s also encourages you to connect with your sensual physical body.

The Sun Scorpio forms a trine aspect to Neptune in Pisces. This supportive aspect with the planet of our dreams helps align our egos with our spirituality, mysticism and compassion. Be of service today, help a stranger, get creative and smile at everyone you meet today. For all the creative peeps out there get day dreaming and get lost in your new project. Get that guitar out, grab that sketch book sit in nature and get inspired.

Getting all Fired Up! 1/11/17

The Moon moves into Aires.

Mars opposes Mars in Libra.

 The Sun in Scorpio semisquares Saturn in Sagittarius.

When you start your day off today, some may notice the mood and energy has shifted rather dramatically from intuitive and dreamy to “All fired up!” and ready to break through obstacles as the Moon enters Aires.

Mars is the ultimate male planet! Mars is about our wants and desires, it is ruled by Aires who is represented by the Ram. Rams as we know, love to ram anything out of its way, their energy is one directional, one-sided, stubborn and know one gets in their way! However, when Mars is in Libra, it is the complete opposite to Aires. Libra is it about compromise, harmony and balance, which means Mars has to take a back seat of being head strong and become more flexible. Mars has to actually listen, be balanced acknowledge others feelings and point of views! Mars has to be compromising!

With the Aires Moon and Mars opposing, some of us can notice in a shift in our energy levels, random feelings of frustration and anger may suddenly arise out of know where. The best way to keep this energy from getting you into trouble or putting your foot in it is to get out and move it out of your system! Engage in direct physical activity, get walking, dancing, go for a jog or a hike.We must be combative with our impatience! You certainly won’t want to lay around and dream any longer! It is time to take action, preferably on a new plan, hobby, organisation or promotion at work, also work with your vitality and drive especially if you have needed a boost lately.

You may feel edgy and restless today without knowing why, please remember to think before you speak especially out of random urges of agitation and anger. Resist power plays and power dynamics. Remember the positive side of this all, with a powerful spark of Aires courage and motivation you are ready to take on the world without a care!

Today, being willing to face your fears, the triggers that get you rattled and sad, the shadow side of ourself. We can only truly be free once we work on our deep dears, and shadow side!

Happy Hump Day!

Its about partnership and integrity. 27/10/17.

The Moon leaves Capricorn behind to enter the quirky, innovative Aquarius.

Mercury in Scorpio forms a sextile Pluto in Capricorn.

Venus forms a challenging square to Pluto.

Today there is a potent alignment of 3 big players in the skies, Mercury, Venus and Pluto. The Aquarius Moon will be with us throughout the weekend, which i love because my Moon sign is Aquarius! When the Moon is in Aquarius we think outside the box, become problem solvers, we focus our services on the humanity rights of others, we are about community, freedom and creativity!

First of all we have loving Venus forming a challenging square to transformational Pluto.This will have a profound impact as it causes tension and friction between the lord of  transformation, birth and death and the goddess of all things beautiful and love. For those in a relationship this can bring your relationship to a new level, it can deepen and strengthen your connection. Remember Pluto is the lord of uncovering whats hidden deep within ourselves and bringing things to light. Watch out for posessiveness, jealousy and manipulation. Bringing what is hidden to Light is the key. However do watch out for power play and unhealthy power struggles. This goes towards all relationships, friendships, partnerships, friendships and business relationships. Maintain awareness of your own integrity in your interactions with others today.

Mercury in Scorpio  forms a sextile aspect to Pluto in Capricorn. The way we think and communicate aligns with how things are heeled and transformed. You would do well today to speak up, to make your needs clear! It will be felt stronger in our sensual relationships, as our interactions and communications can deepen and be intense, but also potentially transformative.

Finding ways today to be both light, deep, powerful and empowered in our dealings with others is the key right now. Pluto is great for those who need help and are willing to do the work asked of you! My word of advise is to wield these energies wisely! Make sure your words are laced with kindness..

 

Happy Friday everyone!

Things heat up ! 20/10/17

Friday, October 20, 2017.

The Moon entered Scorpio.

The Moon in Scorpio conjunts Jupiter in Scorpio and Mercury in Scorpio.

As the Moon begins her trek through mysterious Scorpio, you can feel the intensity in the air rise! When the Moon is in Scorpio the energy is passionate, deeply intimate and things will be felt on a deep personal level today! Feeling stuck anywhere in your life? Well good news Scorpio is great at uncover the hidden, we are great at reading between the lines and getting to the bottom of things. Today most of the day is quiet in regards to the cosmos, so what a perfect day to get personal.

The Moon in Scorpio conjunts Jupiter in Scorpio. Not only do we have Scorpio energy playing on our emotions and mood (The Moon) we have the planet of expansion and abundance ( Jupiter) in Scorpio, so feelings and emotions will become very strong. We may act out on emotional impulses and some may think the world is against them or play ” victim”.

Today will also be a great day of self discovery, connecting with your self and your environment will help you truly figure out what you want , what your about and how you want to go about making changes to reach these dreams.

Not only do we see this conjunction between Jupiter and the Moon, but we also see them joining with Mercury in Scorpio. The communication planet in Scorpio means that our thinking and conversation could heat up, become serious and passionate! Be warned that the results of your words and thoughts can go both ways, and some things said and done today can have a larger impact than you expected. It will also be a great morning to allow healing to come through words expressed, journal writing and exploring your inner deep self.

Happy Friday.

HAve a great weekend.

The Mind Deepens. Mercury enters Scorpio 17/10/17.

Mercury enters Scorpio.

While you slept, Mercury left Libra behind to enter Scorpio. Shifting the mind, our thought process and intellect from air to water, our thoughts, intellect turn deep and emotional. So when you wake up this morning, you may notice the quality of your mind has shifted to a very different states. Remember that Mercury is the planet that represents the way you think, what you think about, and how you go about communicating and sharing information. When Mercury was in Libra our thinking and conversations were focused on charm, charisma, intellectual stimulation and harmonious interactions.  Now as Mercury enters Scorpio and stays there until November 5th, 2017, you become more obsessed with seeking the truth, diving deep into the waters of Scorpio and discovering hidden thoughts, turning introspective and uncovering personal and private truths.

Mercury in Scorpio is excellent energy for those who need to do some research or investigation. Scorpio who is ruled by Pluto is about transformation,truth-seeking, and can be therapeutic as you go deep to get to the Truth of matters. However so to any Yin there is a Yang, during this transit watch out as we can become very paranoid and intense, looking for secrets or the shadow side of a story when there may not be one. Try and avoid being too suspicious of everyone, cynical and moody.

Key things to remember when Mercury in Scorpio, is that we will be exceptionally sharp, mysterious, analytical, sexual and  profound. Thinking, conversations and ideas over the next few weeks can be deep, alluring, very one track minded, obsessive and we can become very STUBBORN and self-centered in all these areas that Mercury rules over.

Have a great day and remember we have a New Moon in Libra on 20/10/17. Start writing down areas that you want to expand and manifest into your life! It’s a fresh New start to getting the life you want!

 

Have a good day.

Third quarter Moon in Cancer.

The Moon in Cancer forms a square to the Sun in Libra.

The Moon in Cancer than squares Mercury in Libra.

The third Quarter Moon phase is in Cancer. Cancer Moon is emotional, nurturing and caring. The Moon in cancer is kind, caring and family orientated. During this phase, you need to notice what areas of your life are working and what ares are not working. What areas need to be adjusted or released? What concerns have become habitual for yo? hat areas are no longer relevant? Do me one favor before the next New Moon…Let them go!

The Moon than squares Mercury in Libra. Libra’s are great communicators, ruled by an Air element, they are quick, Sharp and witty! The Moon than squares the Sun in Libra. Today the energy results in a calm, nurturing, harmonious and loving energy. It’s about how you treat others, developing meaningful encounters with others.  It’s a time out mentally from all the up and down energies and shifts we have faced all week. Today is a reflection on what we have processed and learnt over the past week. It’s about reaching out and taking steps to make people feel loved and cared for.

However please remember to pay attention to your own needs and consider where you may be unnecessarily allowing the needs of others to overshadow your own.

Today will bring an easier day of self-care, releasing and harmonious relationships. Take a bath, read a book, enjoy comfort food, put clean soft sheets on the bed, and rest and rejuvenate.

Have a great day!

Wednesday is about self care and nurturing! 11/10/2017

Wednesday October 11th, 2017.

The Moon is in Cancer.

Mars in Virgo squares Saturn in Sagittarius.

When you wake up this morning, the Moon will have entered nurturing Cancer while you slept. The Moon rules over Cancer, and the Moon is all about our emotions, making this a day to settle into your feelings. Cancer loves to seek and provide comfort. Cook for yourself, make a romantic meal or feed your friends. Today the energy is wonderful to show love and warmth to everyone you meet, stranger or not.

Aggressive Mars form a challenging square aspect to restrictive Saturn. This will create some friction between the planet that rules our will and drive and the Master planet of limitation, lessons and Karma. You may experience frustration and aggravation today, if you feel as the whole world is against you, what a great  warning or a sign to slow down and resist the temptation to react or respond without thinking things through! The key to today is to slow down and take things steady, if you feel situations or emotions are getting out of your control, take a walk, clear your mind. Let your actions today be taken with discernment, an open heart and integrity and not from an impulse, reaction and  irritability!

The past few days have been deeply challenging and comfort is one thing you can do with and offer use the Moon in Cancer to nurture yourself and others, retreat to the comfort of your home and loved ones today if it gets too much!.

Happy Wednesday Gang!

Mercury squares Pluto in Capricorn.

The Sun In Libra squares Pluto in Capricorn.

The Moon is in Gemini.

Today begins with the communication and thought-provoking, Mercury forming a challenging square to transformative, dark Pluto. The Sun in Libra also squares powerful Pluto today. These aspects will bring some pretty intense energy into relationships, communication and more! Today there isn’t much I can say that may lighten the mood in regards to the challenges we may face during this period. In early January of this year, the Sun joined with Pluto, and it began for many of us a cycle of deep, powerful transformation. Now it is in its third quarter square aspect, it is a time when we will all begin a process of letting go. We should be preparing to dive even deeper than we ever have over the coming year.We will be feeling these energies all day long and can be felt in a very strong way.

Pluto is the planet that relates to death, birth and transformation. It energy embodies all that is powerful and hidden. Pluto is great for seeing the shadow and hidden parts of us and digging deep getting to the truth of matters. It will be more of benefit for you to look directly into the eye of any darkness in your life. Especially any areas or issues you think that you have dealt with or have buried deep within. Where are you questioning issues of trust and safety? Where are you feeling the bitterness of past hurts or anguish.

However these aspects may have a negative side, it needs to make us aware of power or control dynamics around you, within you and your relationship around you. Also, manipulation and certain domination traits may be highlighted within yourself or others. Today is a day to best deal with whats in front of you, and not to completely bury your head in the sand. Honor your struggle and the encounters others are facing during this time. Take the extra step to show up with kindness today and face the world with courage in all circumstances.

The Moon is in chatty, light-hearted and witty Gemini. When the Moon is in Gemini we are upbeat, communication is sharp and we are energetic. This aspect will keep any issues we want to smooth out light and manageable.

Happy Monday!

Full Moon in Aires! Time to rise and shine and take a stand! 5/10/ 2017.

Published on by andycandypantsLeave a comment

Full Moon in Aires 5th October, 2017.

This months Full Moon occurs in the sign of Aires. Key words for any Full Moon are completion and fruition,this is because the moon has completed its monthly luna cycle. The Moon is fully illuminated and its done with all its work and it’s shining the brightest it can be.

This Month the light being illuminated down on us will be paved with Aires energy. Aries is a feisty fire sign, the first sign of the zodiac, its represented by the Ram. Aires energy is all about moving through obstacles, pushing forward, listening to your own heart and figuring out what your needs are and moving forward in the pursuit of them. Aires energy is passionate, determined and focused. This Full moon with this Aires energy you will be driven to move forward, despite any obstacles that have been in your way.

This Full Moon we will get a boost of energy, momentum to move forward, you are focused, empowered and enthusiastic.

The Sun and Mercury are both in Libra today. The Sun in Libra is positive, happy and is about building harmonious relationships and laying solid foundations. Libra seeks to be fair, just and looking at both sides of the story before making judgement. Libra is about justice and keeping an even playing field.

Mercury the communication planet is also in Libra. Mercury loves being in Libra, as Libra is an Air sign, communication, thinking and ideas is what Air signs are about along with Mercury. Air signs are very flexible and quick enough mentally that ideas and information will be communicated well. Mercury in Libra leaves us coming across as articulate, intelligent, elegant and people will find you likable and interested in what you have to say.  These two planets are shining and illuminating onto the Full Moon as the Moon and the Sun are 180 degrees of each other.

The Full Moon is at 12 degrees Aires, and the Moon is showering us with Aires energy. The Sun being in Libra means on one side, you will be considerate, kind, balanced, seeking harmony and well-adjusted in your relationships with others, but the energy you will be pulling in and feeling from the Full Moon is Aires energy. Which means you may have tendencies to be self-centered, only thinking in terms of your own desires, needs and passions and not really going to compromise for the sake of others. However, please remember it’s really important to remember its OK to be selfless and think in regards of yourself and your needs, but any relationship is about compromise. In order to maintain balance and truly be a human being, it’s about coming together! Libra and Aires balance each out, Libra over comprises and put themselves last in order for others to happy, especially in regards to conflict. On the other hand, Aires is more selfish, protecting themselves and fighting for what they think they deserve. They pull down obstacles and barriers, which is why it is important during this time to maintain the status quo, take from both energy to find a balance between yourself, others, and the world around you.

This Full Moon in Aires will support you taking a clear stand for what you truly want. You will gain clarity on new ideas, old problems, reigniting passions and hobbies, work and new adventures you want to pursue. It will also give us a new perceptive of passion and romance in our relationships. We must remember during this time, that you will do well to be honest, direct and open, in your connections with others, not just your romantic partners but with all of your relationships, business, pleasure, friendships and all .

The Full Moon in Aires, like I mentioned before is at 12 degrees, in numerology adds up to 3. Three in numerology vibrates and resonates with self and communication. Threes energy is one of joy and optimism, creativity and imagination. Growth and expansion, spontaneity and growth and in Aires I could not think of a better energy booster of these qualities and energy than this ” go and get them” Star sign. Expect expansion and broad-minded thinking, optimism, inspiration and a real go and drive to succeed. Communication will be fluent and smooth along with your intelligence, sigma, love life and an increase in your social life!

Don’t forget gang.. Every Full Moon brings us a chance for us to let go and move on. Is there something you are holding onto? Or you just want change in your life? Today and over the next few days it’s a great chance to release negative emotions or anything holding you back. Let go and make room for you to manifest your dreams.

 

Happy Full Moon Day!
