The Moon is in Sagittarius

The Moon in Sagittarius forms a challenging aspect to both Venus and Neptune.

The Sun in Leo sesquiquadrates retrograde Neptune in Pisces.

There may be a sense of listlessness in the air when you awake this morning. You’d like to pull the covers over your head and resist facing the day at all.

The Moon is in Sagittarius which normally keeps us feeling upbeat, adventurous, open and ready to learn and experience new ideas and directions. However, the Moon forms a challenging aspect to both Venus and Neptune. Today don’t be surprised if you feel as you are being pulled in different directions, or somewhat unmotivated and lazy! As much as you’d like to pull the covers over your head and resist facing the day or looking for an easy escape may seem like the ideal thing to do, however I can assure you that if you push yourself to experience or see things differently you will be very pleased, the world may even look different if you try just a little today. This will be especially true if you push yourself a bit to see or experience something you have resisted in the past.

The Sun in Leo sesquiquadrates retrograde Neptune in Pisces. When the planet of mysticism and dreams clashes with our ego and conscious self it creates tension between OUR reality and delusions. Try not to avoid reality today, finding a happy medium between your spirit and ego is the key for today! It’s a day for working on your creativity, dreams and spiritual; practice, however don’t get to hard on yourself or caught up in the fine details try to honor your flaws and best qualities.

Happy Monday!

New Moon Solar Eclipse in Cancer 201/8.

Thursday, July 12, 2018:

New Moon Solar Eclipse in Cancer.

The New Moon Solar Eclipse in Cancer forms an opposition to both the Sun and Moon to Pluto in Capricorn.

Today we have a partial solar eclipse at 20’41 Cancer.  This eclipse is the first in the Cancer/Capricorn polarity series! What is activated or brought to Light for you right now can give you insight into the next 19 months. The effects of the Eclipse can last up to six months. The energy being brought forth will be one of family, home life and career and work life, most importantly finding a healthy balance between them both. Look in your chart to see if either of the signs are present, it will give you a clue on what to work and focus your New Moon intentions on!

So not only do we have a New Moon Solar Eclipse in Cancer, we have the Sun opposing Pluto and then the New Moon opposing Pluto.This opposition happens once a year. Therefore it is important for us to understand that we may not be to familiar with this combination of energies. To add into the mix, all these energies we will experience will be intensified by the New Moon solar eclipse! This opposition of power will creating a potent clash between our conscious self and  the Lord of transformation. When Pluto is in play its very important that we remember its energy is one of healing, rebirth and transformation. Can you think back and review whats been happening over the past 6 months? Whats been building up? Any control or power dynamics have arisen? What issues or problems that need to be healed?  Whatever began for you then is now fully illuminated in all its power or darkness. Open your eyes to look deeply. This could well be a pivot point /personally or collectively.

This New Moon draw in the Cancer’s energy which is related to family, home, relationships and nurturing. Also there is huge focus on our feelings, emotions and intuition right now. As I have mentioned this eclipse opposes Pluto in Capricorn, so expect some intense and powerful light to any shadow areas concerning important relationships both personal and family.

Pay special attention to your New Moon ritual and wishes. As whatever seeds you plant for a new beginning or anything you want to manifest at this New Moon will have far more strength and magic, pushing your growth and dreams forward. Be mindful of the fact that everyone’s emotions are heightened. Pay special attention to your New Moon ritual as whatever seed you plant for a new beginning at this New Moon will have far more strength pushing your growth forward.

Traditionally a New Moon is about making new intentions, new beginnings, planting seeds that you inspire to grow. This month the Moon is in its home sign of Cancer, so our New Moon manifestation bucket list should focus on matters that Cancer rules over such as safety, intuition, emotions, food,  family, domestic domains, and a focus on what our basic foundations are set upon, to focus on what we call “Home”. This eclipse is going to strengthen and magnify your new beginnings especially if your focus regarding all of these matters.

Another focus of Cancer is our sense of belonging and security, it’s about where we feel ” At Home” our weakness, vulnerability, our strengths. Cancer’s energy is about finding our ability to move forward and shake off past hurts especially in romance department or relationships with our parents. It’s about forgiving our self and others. This a time to recognize and appreciate the importance of our family or whom we call family, this includes your friends, animals and people who make you feel welcome and safe! If any relationship needs healing or forgiveness use this months New Moon intentions and wishes to build up, heal or strengthen your relationships and most importantly to work on your own relationship with yourself.

This New Moon learn to feed your soul or work on home improvements. Cancer loves food so what better time to enroll yourself and take a cooking class, have ” you” time, take a bath  and honor your innermost feelings. Re-decorate your home or work place and if your domestic home life needs a tweak this is the time to work on it.

 

Happy New Moon manifestation guys!

The Moon enters Libra.

 The Sun in Gemini forms a square with the Libra Moon.

Today don’t be surprised if certain challenges arise, as we see the Sun and Moon at odds forming a square aspect with each other. Whatever seeds you planet at last week’s New Moon during this 1st quarter Moon phase will now be firm in the pipe lines, your projects take off and you should be able to see yours dreams coming to life, however this is also a crucial point where we are faced with the first set of obstacles and challenges… I can tell you funnily enough mine are all to do with communication or lack off ( ironic as it’s a Gemini New Moon which is all about communication). Some of us are feel an urgency to take action during this phase and others may find it  difficult to know what action to take but you know it is time to move forward with the understanding you gained since the New Moon last Wednesday.

It’s the last day of the Sun in Gemini, since May 20th, the Sun has been sitting in this witty, intelligent, inquisitive, curious and fast-talking Gemini. Tomorrow morning  the Sun enters nurturing, emotional and  inward Cancer.

The Moon enters diplomatic and harmonious Libra. This energy is lovely as it shows you how to move forward in a peaceful manner in regards to past or hurtful relationships. Libra Moon days also teach us that the best way to move forward is to face any issue with balanced, dispassionate and objectivity. It’s a day for working in harmony with others and face your challenges with race and an open heart.

Happy Wednesday!

New Moon Energy! 16/04/2018.

New Moon in Aries.

Mercury in Aries semisquares Venus in Taurus.

We have a New Moon in Aries in our midst, as the Sun and Moon meet at 180 degree of one and another, the Moon recharges its batteries for the next lunar cycle. This month it is recharging with Aries energy. New beginnings and taking action are they key words for this New Moon. Forward momentum, getting on with things and life whilst taking action on those plans you have put aside especially now Mercury retrograde is over and it has stationed direct!

The New Moon in Aries, represents a time of going inward and regenerating. Pulling n Aries energy from the Sun. We are at a time of empowerment, progression and future thinking. Aries being the first sign of the zodiac means it is a new lunar year! Aries is a fire sign passionate and driven. It is a pioneer and its energy is related to igniting yourself and getting things started. These months expect motivation, being impulsive, desire,charm and generating ideas. As Aries is ruled by Mars the male planet, this sign has lots of masculine qualities about it. Strength, manual labour and self-assertion, it is also a time to reflect on what you care about. It is a time to ask yourself.. What do I need to get myself started on the right path. What aspect of your life do you want to make progression in? Your Career? Physical health? relationships?

The New Moon is at 26 degrees, two and six equals eight. Eight in numerology is power number! So not only are we lucky enough to be getting a jump-start by pulling in Aries energy, which is very goal oriented and GO GO GO energy that is driven to focus on the future, we will also be empowered and magnified. This is about you this month, what you want and what you want to achieve.

Mercury in Aries semisquares Venus in Taurus. This can cause a little upset with our heart and our mind. Inner and outer conflicts with our relationships can happen, as we seek independence as well as connection with others. Watch out and don’t put your foot in it, unless you really need to speak up today. As my wise mother always told me, think before you speak! Meet people in the middle, don’t let your thoughts and impulses dictate your actions especially if you feel your emotions or thoughts going from 1 – 100 in seconds. On a more positive note, your thoughts, communications and insights arising today can shed light on what is awry in our relationships, both personal and business.

The Moon is in Virgo.

The Sun in Aries squares Saturn in Capricorn.

As the Moon passes through organised, efficient and analytical Virgo, you feel driven to accomplish things today especially if it’s at work, your health or at home organisation.

Last year on December 21st, Saturn returned to his home sign of Capricorn, as well as joining the Sun and beginning an annual cycle. This cycle has brought forth some  seriousness, stability and responsibility to the table. Today we reach the First Quarter Square between them, it’s a day  for action, reflection and a day to face to reality!

The Sun in Aries squares Saturn in Capricorn. Creating tension and a lot of friction between our conscious self/Ego and the planet of Karma, Mastery and lessons.Today will be a great time to consider or review what your responsibilities are? What blocks or issues are holds you back? What is striking a nerve of late? As your patience on these matters are here to teach you maturity, wisdom , self-respect and mastery!Face all of  your circumstances with determination as these issues are what we are meant to be  learning.

Today remember that all this intense energy will pass. Have a great Easter everyone and a wonderful day!

Be Open Hearted Today! 27/03/2018.

The Moon is in Leo.

The Moon forms a trine to Mercury.

The Moon continues its transit through fun-loving playful Leo, meaning we get another day to relax into easy, playful, child like self-expression. It’s a another day we crave love and attention. It’s also great for those who have children or children in their lives to be spontaneous! Remember the joy of imagination and playing and consider spending time with them in simple, creative playful ways, bake cupcakes, play hide and seek or who doesn’t love to dress up?

When the Moon is in Leo we must also remember that life can be dramatic! Some will find themselves either center stage for good reason or for not so good reason. So watch how you treat others today, avoid being vapid and watch for your high expectation’s of others. Balance Leo’s open-hearted generosity with its s self-contentedness.

The Moon forms a lovely trine to Mercury today. This harmonious trine helps us express ourselves in a more balanced way, words will flow easily and fluent. So if you have been waiting for the chance or a right time to get those certain words out and communication something special to someone today is the day! Our thoughts are balanced and it is especially a great day to talk your feeling, affections and intentions towards others.

 

Have a great day!

Rule by your Heart not the EGO. 26/03/18.

Monday March 26th, 2018.

Moon enters Leo.

The Moon leaves its transit of nurturing Cancer and it enters excitable Leo this morning. When the Moon is in Leo, we are proud, playful and crave the spotlight and attention!We have a need to be creative, expressive and playful. If there is any area of your life that needs an added boost of sunshine, playfulness, attention and energy, today is the day to focus on those areas and harness the energy wisely! Our unique qualities and talents will come out today have some fun! If we are authentic and true to our self and have the back bone to prove to someone your worth today you will benefit tremendously

However, on the shadow side of Leo energy is that we can be too proud to back down when it is needed! We can over take others time to shine! We can be very egotistical and we can boast too much self-esteem that comes across in the wrong way! It’s also a time to think about and ask yourself whether you’re being too proud in some situations.

But overall it’s a great day to show yourself some self-love and attention, shine today and be proud of who you are!

 

Happy Monday!

The Moon is in Cancer.

The Moon in Cancers connects with Venus in Pisces

The Cancer Moon trines Jupiter in Scorpio.

 

The Moon spends most of the day in nurturing, sensitive Cancer. When the Moon is in its home sign of Cancer we seek the creature comforts of home and crave a secure, nurturing environment. The focus for most today will be on “How can I take care of other’s”  “How can I express my love” and ” How can I nurture myself and others”. It’s a great energy in regards to seeing the best in others. Any issue or problems that may come up today you can resolve easy, as you will be coming from a place of love with love in your heart and seeing sides from others point of view..

The Moon in Cancers connects with Venus in Pisces. Venus in Pisces energy is much of ” Love conquers all”, so today you will be wrapped up in a cloud of pink love, stuck in a very loving haze, you see the best in people and in situations.Today your attitude will be very much ” Water off a ducks back”.

The Cancer Moon trines Jupiter in Scorpio, more water energy to add into the daily mix. Jupiter is the lucky planet, the planet of expansion and growth. Today you have good luck through your feelings, so the more love and positivity you give out today the more it will come back to you.

Overall, it’s a really beautiful soft energy today especially to be with loved ones. It is also a day to seek out a sense of belonging and familiarity. As your feelings are run deep today, do something nice for someone you love or even better show some kindness to a stranger or someone in need. Be authentic and show others who you truly are.

Happy Monday, I hope you have a great day!

AQUARIUS NEW MOON, SOLAR ECLIPSE

Published on by andycandypantsLeave a comment

Thursday, February 15, 2018.

The Aquarius New Moon and Solar Eclipse at 27° Aquarius.

This New Moon in Aquarius takes place in a month where there is no Full Moon. We just had two Full Moon in January and there will be two Full Moons in March. A month with no Full Moon traditionally  was sometimes referred to as a dark month, or a Black Moon.

The New Moon partial Solar Eclipse is at 27’08 Aquarius. Although Aquarius is an Air sign, she makes connections with Juno and Mercury.  Juno is the ancient goddess of partnerships, love and commitments and Mercury is the planet that rules our mental realm, communication and thought process. This means for us that these areas will be highlight during this New Moon phase.

Lets back track and reflect the Lunar Eclipse that opened the portal on January 31st. Eclipses are in the sign of nodes. Typically Eclipses are always within 18.5 degrees of the node. The North Node aka the lunar eclipse and the South Node aka the solar eclipse. Node’s astrologically speaking are connected with karma and evolution and eclipses are all about change. We have and will  feel the amplification of these energies this month. The North node last month, was in relation to our destined path of growth and evolution and now we have the partial eclipse in the South Node which is to do with our Karma and Karmic patterns.

Eclipse are great at illuminating where change and growth is needed and if we are off our path. It’s about rectifying our actions and doing what is needed to make things whole again. This can seem a burden to some in order to grow and evolve we must something let go of something and someone.To reorient ourselves this upheaval of situations and relationships in our lives is a necessity. To get a more in-depth look, you need to search in your personal natal chart for a deeper answer and a grasp of what these eclipses mean for you personally.

Although Aquarius is usually quite a detached Air sign when it comes to matters of the heart such as feelings, emotions and connections. This eclipse as I mentioned is tightly conjunct with both Juno and Mercury. Soulmates, love and communication will be brought o our attention. Also bringing into focus is not only our personal relationships but partnerships of all kinds romantic, committed, business, financial and otherwise.

Lets have a quick run down on the asteroid. Juno is the wife of Jupiter. Her and Venus share the theme of love and relations but as Venus is all about making connections and attractions , Juno is about soul mates committing to them. Juno is related to soul mates, marriage, long-term relationships and beauty. She is the patron mother of relationships and true love. The energy is feminine, soft and diplomatic.

With the Juno energy closely linked. Romantic relationships will be the main theme at this Eclipse. Yes, this means our romantic self and relationships will be up for review. You may deepen your connection to your special someone, or it can bring to surface that you are both at the highest place you two can journey to and that in order for you to move up you may have to move on.

With Mercury the planet known for ruling communication added into the mix, it is highly possible that this New Moon talk of love, loyalty, devotion, moving in with someone, making plans for the future, romantic holidays, travel and possibility of engagements and marriages will be on the cards. Especially as the New Moon’s energy radiates intensely for a few days, before and after.. Hello Valentines day!

Typically New Moons ignite new beginnings, are a starting point to make changes and manifest what we want to bring into fruition over the next lunar cycle. However, we need to remember that this New Moon is aligned with the South Node so in order to bring into our life our desires, we need to figure out what needs to end or be completed first in order for something new to take hold. With any change we need to remember that we need to work for it!

During this New Moon  Eclipse the veil will be thin, our illusions will be  lifted. This makes it an amazing time to really get to know yourself, seek out your authentic genuine self even if it makes you feel uncomfortable.  This Aquarius New Moon Solar Eclipse carries a positive and loving energy that is going  allow us to awaken to the fact that we are all connected, we all have similar needs and that we all need each other to thrive.

incorporate all the themes and energies I have mention into your New Moon wishes this month.I can assure you, you wont be disappointed! Nurture them and watch them blossom! Happy manifesting!

Find a Balance… 07/02/2018.

Wednesday 7th February 2018.

First Quarter Moon in Scorpio.

The Aquarius Sun squares  the Scorpio Moon.

The Scorpio Moon joins with expansive Jupiter.

Today brings us to the First Quarter Lunar Phase in Scorpio. The Last Quarter Moon in Scorpio brings us to a point of activating our consciousness. Some may call it a crisis point or a “freak out” moment, in which we are being asked to work out and sort out what is working for us and what isn’t.  This can include, problems or issues in our daily routines, people, feelings, stress, home life, work life , personal life or health routine. Take some time out and go deep. Discover what inst working or what could be left behind or tweaked. We need to start preparing for next week New Moon/Solar Eclipse ( How exciting).  We need to sort out the old and make changes, so we can bring in and manifest what we want or new changes to come about at the New Moon.

A challenging square aspect is forming between the Aquarius Sun and the Scorpio Moon. If you feel pulled between two directions today, this will be the energy causing it. The ego vs our emotion will have us torn today, our job is to find a balance between our deep running emotional side (Scorpio) and our intellectually over stimulated and logic side(Aquarius). You will also need to balance how you express both these sides of yourself today!

The Scorpio Moon joins with expansive Jupiter this afternoon. This begins a cycle of growth, abundance, becoming fruitful and we have a chance of expansion. This will be done through expanding your understanding of  your emotions, passion and through deep introspection. If you have a desire to improve and grow today is your chance. Feel the emotions that arise go hard or you may be left behind.

 

Happy Wednesday!
