The Sun in Scorpio trines the Moon in Cancer.

Mercury conjuncts the Jupiter.

Mars forms a semi-square with Saturn.

 

The Sun in Scorpio trines the Moon in Cancer. The Sun in Scorpio represents our identity, saying this… our inner energy is more intense, emotional and we feel more inclined to seek out hidden truths no matter the cost. The Moon however, is all about our emotional feelings, and in its home sign of Cancer that means that part of us that loves to nurture, be connected to family, to love, along with our intuitive and sensitive side and will be the emotions/energies strongest felt today.

Mercury conjuncts the lucky planet Jupiter. So today there will be a large focus on the way you communicate with others and how you communicate will determine how you bring about luck and expansion into your life and into theirs. This Mercury/Jupiter conjunction also inspires optimism, hope and a hint of excitement. Mercury and Jupiter reach their final alignment in star sign of Scorpio, which leads us to gaining insight into a problem, talking through issues, and seeing

Today is a unique day! It’s going to be all about forgiveness and healing. It will be about the “Why” you actually feel out with someone, or insight to any other type of miscommunication in any relationship breakdown. Healing is very possible today yay! Reconciliation is the theme for today as all parties will be able to acknowledge the part they played in a relationship breakdown. Have you been estranged from a family member, a partner or close friend? Today is the day to pick up the phone and say “i want you back in my life”.  This is largely to do with Venus retrograde in Scorpio. Venus being in Scorpio is a highly emotional position for Venus to sit in. Besides being very passionate, intense, and oh so very dark and sensual Venus in Scorpio treasures closeness along with our most valuable relationships are extremely important, actually overwhelming and consuming at times. So if you notice those around you or directly connected to you are having relationship problems this is due to the vulnerability Scorpio feels, the fear of being close or exposing your softer side to others, it’s also stemming from hidden truths and feelings being brought to the surface for healing and transformation. Dint put yourself in an all or nothing” situation if you think healing is available especially until October 31st when Venus enters into a new sign.

With Mercury in Scorpio, Venus in Scorpio and the Sun in Scorpio expect the energy to be intense and passionate, as you seeks truths in all that is hidden and hush-hush. Our communication and thought process especially around the matters of our heart, personal matters and the way we look at our self-will be more probing, deeply emotional and intense. Scorpio is great for self-healing and transformation if you are ready to take a real look at yourself and accept the parts of you that you may not like.  It’s wonderful that we all get an added boost of passion, mystery and strength, just watch out for the less favorable traits as jealously, manipulation and being vindictive.

However, it’s not all so nurturing and happy days… unfortunately we see a clash between Mars and Saturn. This morning expects to feel some tension rising as Mars forms a semi-square with Saturn. With these two masculine energies against each other today you may feel restricted and repressed. Saturn energy is all about learning, structure and mastering your life. Mars is the planet that drives our will and motivation so when they go head to head expect your strong desires to succeed and create to lead to road blocks and complications. Negative emotions such as frustration, jealously, anger and tempers will flare up today especially in regards to authority figures such as your boss, manager or family members. Don’t let yourself be effected by the limiting and rejecting feelings that may arise from the built up influences of Saturn and Mars, let your desire of finishing goals and ripping down restrictions and old beliefs be the drive you need today.  This is not a winning or overly pleasant transit and the best approach now is a not be over defensive but flexible especially if are feeling more resistance, just know everyone around you is being influenced the same so if tempers arise de-escalate the mood quickly even if you know you have not done a thing to feel someone else wrath.

Patience, perseverance and empathy will be your strong points today!

With so much going ion today just take it one person and one step at a time! Happy Monday gang!

Scorpio Moon forms a challenging square aspect to retrograde Mars

The Scorpio Moon forming a sextile to Venus and then forming a conjunction to  Jupiter.

This morning may start out a bit rough for some as the Scorpio Moon forms a challenging square aspect to retrograde Mars. This can cause some tension and friction between you and anyone on your path! Try to avoid arguments or blowing your fuse this morning as it will be very easy to lose your cool and frustrations can go from 0 to 100 in a split second.Keep in mind that retrograde Mars’ provides us with an opportunity to explore, dissolve, and eliminate toxic anger.

Good news is that the day smooths out and exciting for enough for us,offers us an evening that is made for love, romance and an opportunity to form close and deep connections with close friends and lovers. This is all thanks to Moon forming a sextile to Venus and then forming a conjunction to expansive and lucky Jupiter. Jupiter will expand your emotions and feelings and Venus’s energy means that the bond with others is one of deep love and connection. A love that expands and fills your heart on a deeply profound soul growth level. Don’t settle for light social fling tonight. Connect with others on a powerful deep level for maximum satisfaction.

 

Happy Friday!

Full Moon in Sagittarius 29/05/2018.

Full Moon in Sagittarius.

Mercury moves into Gemini.

Happy Full moon day! Today we have the Full Moon at 8 Sagittarius. A Full Moon traditionally represents a time when the Sun and Moon are at 180 degrees of one and other, when the Sun illuminates the Moon to make it Full and bright. It’s the mid way point of a lunar cycle, if you can think back to the New Moon we had on May 15th. Grab your New Moon manifestation list, can you see what you wanted to begin, what seeds did you plant at that time? Have any of the seeds grown? Where has it brought you in this stage of your lifer? Any goals you set at the New Moon can now be adjusted as we are able to see situations from all angles and more clearly.The illumination of the Full Moon will stay with you for several days and give us the strength we need to be independent and reach a new level of personal freedom.

This month the lunar energy that will be shining down on us is of Sagittarius. This Full Moon is one of being positive and free. The Full Moon will be lit up by the Sun sitting in the opposite sign of Gemini at 8 degrees. The Sun in Gemini focuses on communication, ideas, information and perception of truth. Its upbeat and witty, its fun, articulate and interested in new things, its talkative and life feels likes it very opportunistic.

Full Moons traditionally are a time to let go, to make changes, to release which no longer serves a purpose in your life such as old emotions, fears, baggage, people, situations and ways of thinking. Sagittarius is all about freedom and breaking free. This opposition of the Sun and Moon highlights your ability to see both sides of a situation. Clarity is the name of the game this Full Moon. Your emotions are highlighted along with your awareness. Your ability to apply your sharp focus during this Full Moon in all of your circumstances, for good or ill will also be heightened.

The Full Moon is at 8 degrees, and 8 are a very powerful number, especially in the sign of Sagittarius. Sagittarius is represented by the mythical centaur, half man half horse with an uncontrollable and wild energy. This sign is adventurous and smart. It’s about setting goals and galloping to reach them. This sign loves adventure, to travel, to learn and expand their knowledge through these travels and journey’s. Sadges are very physical and abstract thinkers, they love the mental realm and make great teachers. It’s a time for opening the mind a celebrating life. It’s about personal freedom and being independent. The centaur holds in his hands a bow and arrow which gives us the courage to move forward in any area of your life especially if you have felt stuck or keep going around in circles, like an arrow shooting through the air we are ready to take the leap and now have the personal drive to break through obstacles and challenges. To leave old situations and gallop into a more positive and forward moving future, to be present in the here and now. A new wave of adventures on the horizon. Sagittarius is all about doing what you love and having fun in the process, this Full Moon is a good time to get back to the heart of things you love, to remember life is about enjoyment.

Mercury the planet that rules our communication and our thought processes leaves the sweet grounded stability of Taurus behind to enter its home and ruling sign of chatty  Gemini. Shifting our conscious mind and intellect from earth to air energy, from the  body to our mind. Mercury rules Gemini and is very happy in this sign! Communication and the way we process and gather information will be change as the energy picks up speed. Mercury and Gemini loves to talk, share, learn, explore, travel and connect with others! This goes hand in hand with the Full Moon Sadge energy we will be experiences over the next few days!

The key this Full Moon is how to learn to translate our emotions, intuitions, thoughts and inner knowing into a language that we can effectively communicate to our self  and others during this lunar transit. Especially if you are on a personal quest to broaden your mind and knowledge. This Full Moon is especially good for fire and Air star signs such as  Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius and Aquarius, but it’s will be more challenging for everyone else that includes me. Regardless of your star sign this Full Moon in Sadge will  leave you feeling the urge to take up a bold quest for greater meaning.

Happy Full Moon day!

Find a Balance 24/05/2018.

Thursday, May 24th, 2018.

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!

~~New Moon Day in Taurus and Uranus enter Taurus ~~ 15/05/2018.

~~New Moon in Taurus ~~

~~Uranus eneters Taurus ~~

Today we have a New Moon in Taurus. This New Moon is highly significant as it shares the same day we see Uranus enter Taurus. We can expect some power shifts happening, so its best not to underestimate its abilities to wake and shake up some new expected energies and change in your life. This has the ability to also move your life in a new direction and this is to do with Uranus the planet of disruption, change, and revolution mixing in with New Moon Luna energy of new beginnings and manifestation.

With all this Taurus energy entering into our lives, it’s a great time to look at your natal chart to see what house in your chart holds Taurus? This will be the area of your life that is being highlighted for you and is demanding change. Allow yourself to be moved, address any issues and don’t try to avoid the profound shifts that will inevitably be in the making in the coming months.

The New Moon is at 24’36 Taurus. This commences a new lunar cycle. A New moon is represent in our sky as complete darkness, it’s when the Sun and Moon are aligned, and the Sun and Earth are on opposite sides of the Moon. This is a time where the Moon recharges itself for the next lunar cycle, and this Month its recharging with Taurus energy. This New Moon will focus on the earth, nurturing, sensuality, money, beauty and embodiment. Taurus is the first Earth sign and is ruled by Venus, so it is not just focused on material stability and reality, but also on love, abundance, sensuality and pleasure. Taurus is loyal and loves the simple (and finer) pleasures such as  good food, good wine, fine arts and music but Taurus also loves any activity that brings them closer to nature and brings us in touch with our body!

The Sun joins the New Moon at 24 degrees Taurus. More earthy Taurus energy! Don’t forget its time to do your New Moon rituals. Plant seeds of intentions or manifestations you wish to see fruit over the next month! You can even wait a day or two if you need to reflect on what you need to bring forth into your life! Keep your ritual simple But do not neglect your New Moon Ritual.

Take a moment to write down the changes you wish to create, manifest,  begin or increase in the upcoming Moon Cycle. Being the New Moon in Taurus the intention you should set will focus on incorporating Taurus energy into your intentions. The Taurus New Moon suggests that you plant a seeds or intentions of patience, loyalty, sensuality, beauty, dependability, finances and being ground. Take advantage of the New Moon and Uranus in Taurus, by planting a seed or dream that will support the changes you want to see in any areas of your life. This is a good Luna cycle to discover what truly makes us happy and fulfilled also its a cycle in which we should try to re-evaluate our relationship to money and possessions.

Taurus, like I have mentioned likes security and stability  but can hold onto to the past even when it is stagnant, old, toxic leaving them felling “stuck”. The Uranus energy we are experiencing, well unfortunately for those stubborn Bulls is all about change! Uranus is all about unexpected change, change in our daily lives and its structure, it’s very revolutionary. It will test our basic foundations and just when we feel secure it throws a curve ball you catch mid-air unexpectedly. Uranus loves disruption in order for us to break away from old stagnant patterns. This shift is here for us yo  evolve, the old to die and be transformed. Uranus moves signs every 7 years and we are shifting from fire to earth energy of the great awakener and rebel!

Uranus in Taurus is an interesting transit to say at least, as Taurus is a sign that resist change and needs consistency, security and stability and well Uranus  nature is one of big change. The changes we can see when you throw the sign of material gains and the great revolutionar you can expect to see  big change to your abundance, your finances, and our precious values and everything  we dearly hold onto!

Alternately, Over the next 7 years it will be a great time for us to  let go of what we hold onto out of safety and security that does not serve us in order to make room for our new-found abundance and wealth. let go over the power that money may hold over you, and power plays in regards to addiction, spending, food, alcohol and let go of the thought that you need material objects to make you happy and secure.

Maintaining stability in the face of the all these big shifts that Uranus is bringing is key, Lucky for us Taurus is very grounded but it is also very stubborn, which means it also has a problem with resisting change as it seeks security and a safety net. So please, become more aware of what makes us feel comfortable and secure, just so you can use that grounding and confidence to make changes in other areas of your life that may not feel so stable and that could really use some change. It’s a time to become more aware of what makes us feel comfortable and secure and use its as a starting point for succesful change!

Even as Uranus is pushing for something shockingly new. It’s a beautiful time to commit to your personal goals and dreams, especially those that express the positive energies of the sign of the mighty Bull. With everything that is going on cosmically, don’t forget to enjoy this time. It’s a time to enjoy life’s physical and simple pleasures! Make a romantic dinner with loved ones, go on a romantic holiday with a partner, enjoy a good book, savor good food, get out and ground yourself in nature and enjoy those activities that bring you back in touch with nature.

Think big this New Moon as the change available is not a minor one!

Happy New Moon Day

Big Week Astrologically this Week! 14/05/2018.

Published on by andycandypantsLeave a comment

Monday May 14th, 2018.

The Moon in Taurus.

The Taurus Moon trines Saturn in Capricorn.

Mercury in Taurus semisextiles Chiron in Aries.

Happy Monday, okay head’s up! we have some more intense astrology. Wow this is going to be an important week for us, there is a lot of change going about the planet!! So day by day ill give you a run down on what energies to expect for the day and how it will impact us down here on earth.

Today, we have the Moon in Taurus. The Moon represents sensitivity and it reflects this sensitivity in who you are and how you feel, in Taurus this makes you feel practical, grounded and you will have a deep connection with the earth and feel that changes are very possible.The Moon will form many aspects to big player planets today, so do not be surprised if you are effected on more than one level today!

The Taurus Moon trines Saturn in Capricorn. This will create friction and tension between our conscious self and the Lord of Karma. Saturn is about structure and in Capricorn this energy is applied to hard work and working towards structure! Add to the mix another earth sign of Taurus and I can assure you, you will really feel like its down to you to put in the hard work this week to create whatever it is you are working towards for your bigger picture. Nothing ever came to you by sitting at home avoiding responsibility and change! Use this grounded earth energy to see yourself free and embrace change! Saturn in Capricorn demands that we be responsible, work hard, deal with reality, and set healthy limits while the Sun in Taurus wants pleasure, beauty, perfection and abundance! The key is to find a balance! However it is also important to notes that this energy can bring a heavy, karmic energy to the day, we may find that we have certain limitations,  feel certain restrictions and delays can arise today.

Mercury in Taurus semisextiles Chiron in Aries. Aligning our mind and intellect with the Wounded Healer. This linking of energies is a great aspect for having heart to heart with someone, healing our negative thoughts and having healing talks with an old friend, a partner or family member! Mercury in Taurus seeks harmony and connection in communication so healing this week will be done through changing our mind , thoughts and the way we communicate.

 

Have a good day!

A day for Progressive thinking and Overindulging… 08/05/2018.

Published on by andycandypantsLeave a comment

 

Tuesday, May 8th 2018.

The Moon is in Aquarius.

The Taurus Sun opposes retrograde Jupiter in Scorpio.

Today we see the steadfast Taurus Sun opposing retrograde Jupiter in Scorpio. This will create some tension or an opposition between the planet of expansion and abundance and our conscious self. This opposition to Jupiter today has both an yin and yang effect on us.  Taurus and Scorpio love indulging and being sensual so on one hand it is a great day for being social, eating, exploring, having fun and enjoying life. However we must  be aware of overindulgence, going over the top and excess as Jupiter does not like limitations of any kind. The key for today is to enjoy life but don’t overdo it.

 

 

The Moon spends most of the day in progressive Aquarius, when it will later move into dreamy Pisces. On Aquarius Moon days we can find yourself becoming very detached and withdrawn from worry and expectations. Our thoughts and feeling are objective and we are able to set our own pace for the day. Originality and a cosmic push towards our life path are more visible today as you come to realize that your own path forward is not done alone and you must push forward on this journey, and those who follow along are a bonus.

Hope you have a great day enjoying the small things of life!

The Moon is in Sagittarius.

The Sagittarius Moon forms an aspect to Uranus.

Please do enjoy the calmer and quiet day as remains with us today before we enter a more serious weekend . The Moon is in Sadge and we continue to seek out new, excitable, adventurous and more meaningful experiences. The optimistic, freedom seeking Sagittarius Moon forms an exciting trine aspect to inspirational and unpredictable Uranus. Expect the unexpected in a good way! This continues the theme of yesterday of seeking growth, independence, going against your normal way of thinking and doing and philosophical understanding. Plan a trip to a place that will widen your view and understanding of the world. Later tonight the Moon enters responsible by the book and hard-working Capricorn.

After all the intensity of the Full Moon in Scorpio, some of us can fall into an energy slump. If things didn’t work out well for you, or you still seem lost or stuck on the next step forward you may want to relax a little during this part of the cycle and just let the answers come to you!

Happy Thursday.

Full Moon in Scorpio 29/4/18!

Published on by andycandypantsLeave a comment

Full Moon in Scorpio.

Sunday, April 29th, 2018.

By the time you wake up on Sunday morning, the Full Moon has entered deep, intense and very mysterious Scorpio. A full Moon is exact 180 degrees away from the Sun and it’s totally illuminated and showers down on us its Luna energy. Full Moon have the ability to interfere with our sleep patterns, either you can get insomnia or become very lethargic and crave sleep. It has the ability to make people’s emotions and moods off-balance and out-of-order. Not surprising if the Moon has such an effect or our waters, ocean and tides who says it can play havoc in our bodies, we are made up of mostly water.

This is going to be a spectacular Full Moon, it will be in the sassy sign of Scorpio at 9 degrees, which means the Sun is sitting in the sign of Taurus at 9 degrees. This Full Moon is in its opposite sign of Taurus, Scorpio. Triggering a push-pull or integration effect between both of these signs energies. The Sun in Taurus is grounded, secure, practical especially in regards to possessions, home and money. It loves sensuality, chemistry and indulging the senses. Taurus is a fixed earthly signs about practicality, manifestation and nature. Taurus is the most invested in the physical and material world. It can also be lazy, slow and stubborn.

Scorpio is a water sign, emotional, intelligent and magnetic. When the Moon is in Scorpio we go deep, your emotions tend to go very deep, our shadow side is illuminated. Connections with others must be deeply powerful in order to be worth your while. We won’t be happy or content until we have looked below the surface, and we will not settle for nothing less than the truth. Key words to take from Scorpio energy is transmutation, transformation, intuition, healing, power, desire, calculated, passionate and intense. Scorpio however can also be controlling and manipulative.

If we look closely, both Scorpio and Taurus are associated with values, money, and worth.Taurus and Scorpio are both possessive in their own way. Scorpio is possessive of their loved ones whilst Taurus can be possessive with their physical things and money.

In next few days before and after this Full Moon in Scorpio, expect to experience on some level the polarity of these two signs playing out in our lives. The key here is find a balance and to integrate both signs, take some time out and incorporate and considerate all the energies that are available to us.

Scorpio, ruled by Pluto is known for death and rebirth, transformation, destruction and recreation. Under this Full Moon, the darkness that you’d rather avoid will not be easily silenced unfortunately. The shadow aspect of us is just as important as any other aspect of our self. The darkness can shine light and hold so much wisdom and insight in regards to our higher self and healing we must do in order to progress through life. It contains all the answers or clues on what to do next that you’ve been searching for. We will have opportunities for feeling this connection on our inner realms right now.

Scorpio’s are honest and real, and their honesty should be the most comforting thing in the world. The energy of the Scorpio Full Moon highlights our deep subconscious. We can discover what drives us, motivates us or what our deepest desires are. What are you longing for? What are you aspiring to be? This Moon will help us manifest this if we stay on track and align our will with our higher self. It is a time do so some self releasement. To release what no longer is working for us, physically, mentally emotionally, whatever is unhealthy and doing you no good. A spring clean, not just in our physical and emotional body but also within home, office or the people around us. This is also a great time to deal with healing on a soul level especially if you have trust issue.

The Full Moon in Scorpio is here to remind us of the need to consider others, contributions and support, others needs, input and wants, and it’s also here to force an awareness of any relationship imbalances. Now let’s look at the numerology of this Full Moon. Its sitting at 9 degrees, nine in numerology represents completion and  spirituality, which highlights what we’re doing, and are we on the right path? Is it right in terms of our long-term growth and success.

During this Full Moon, take a few moments and think about what you may want to release emotionally that is stopping you for your wealth and happiness. Be open and willing to receive.

Happy Full Moon Day!
