This morning we wake up to a Moon in
Leo that is so full it looks like it is about to bust open. As a
matter of fact, there could be some folks that are feeling so full of
themselves at this time that they are just about ready to pop. Watch
those hot air balloons as they float by as if they were on parade. We
are having a parade afterall. Somebody has to play that part. What's
a parade without big floating heads...er, I mean balloons?
Tonight under this big shining Moon we
are encouraged to come out and join the party dressed as ourselves.
This involves a bit of self-discovery accompanied with
self-acceptance and embracing of all that is YOU along with license
for unique self-expression. In that, we are encouraged to stand
proudly as ourselves while leaving room for others to do the same.
The Sun in Aquarius is still within orb
of a sextile to Uranus in Aries. This is a marking of independence in
light of collaborations with the collective. We stay who we are even
when mixed in the crowd. On top of that, the Moon is waxing into
trine with Uranus (3:19 PM) bringing independence to how we feel. Our
emotions are not connected to what is going on with our neighbors. We
operate independently in light of whatever emotional weather we are
witnessing from others. Our emotional intelligence is high under this
Moon.
Then, at 6:09 PM, our Full Moon busts
wide open right on the apex of a Yod with Pluto in Capricorn and
Chiron/Mars in Pisces. POP! We see where we have been oppressed. We
find our unique place in the ever changing cosmos. We step out from
underneath whatever chains we discover and ROAR in our new found
freedom of self with confidence. We are unashamed of our nakedness.
But, in light of the beauty that we find in ourselves, we are
prompted to adorn our body with things that highlight and bring
attention to what we deem as our best features. We shine a spotlight
on those parts of ourselves that we are proud of without worrying
that it is different from what we see in the crowd. We don't expect
anyone else to be just like us either. We leave room for and
encourage individuality in others too. But, even in our uniqueness,
we know that our special little niche in the world has a larger
purpose in the collective. We have to be who we are in order for the
machine to produce something dynamic.
By midnight, the Moon is conjunct
Jupiter. Hopefully you have spent the day celebrating you. If you
did, at the end of that, do you realize what a miracle you are? Are
you humbled by that? You should be. Because even though you walk
around in the frame that is “you” there is some stuff that went
on in that making of you that you didn't have much to do with. Merely
existing on this planet is a miracle that we overlook everyday. Find
gratitude and grace in whatever spot you find yourself in within that
dynamic. Embrace and discover who you are and do that on purpose
while retaining a sense of humbleness and gratitude for being made so
great to begin with.
Give thanks. Look to where you are
blessed. Share your blessings generously instead of hoarding them
selfishly all to yourself and celebrate the uniqueness you find both
in yourself and in others. Re-find the wonderment that is wrapped up
in the discoveries of a child. But, refrain from backsliding into
childish behaviors. Instead aim for benevolence and wisdom while
fostering a sense of gratitude for the path that brought you here
regardless of the bumps in the road along the way. All this went into
the making of what is you. No regrets. You still get to choose how
you operate. You still should be celebrating what you have become and
what you are striving to be. You should still have license to feel
comfortable in your own skin while being grateful for the skin you're
in to begin with.
So preen yourself up and step out into
this parade. Are you one of the big floating balloons? A clown? The
quiet alley cat in the corner waiting for someone to drop their corn
dog? Whatever role it is you are drawn to, step into it and strut
your stuff.
