Today kind of drifts by
under a Void Moon in Sagittarius. It looks relatively low key and
routine matters likely go off without many hang ups. Which can be
rather nice.
The Moon enters Capricorn
and becomes active again at 3:17 PM EDT. Though, that passage doesn't
contain much excitement either. What I actually see is a solid case
of the Monday dreads. But, before we meet with that heavy potential,
the Moon lights up a nice trine with Uranus in Taurus. We can gently
“let our hair down” and maybe even experiment with new foods (as
an example). There is a great chance of finding a new favorite.
Course, there is always a chance to find a “never again” too.
But, new and is a good way to go.
These are Earth signs so
even though it is Uranus in play, things likely come about slowly,
methodically and has plenty of good old dusty common sense. This can
also be used to consider new traditions you may want to create within
your home or with your family.
The Moon then moves on to
make a conjunction with her ruler, Saturn, at 10:40 PM. That is
sobering and the point where the dread of the incoming work week is
likely the heaviest. The 3 biggest things that help here are:
- completing something, even if small, or making progress on something during the day so when Saturn rolls around you feel as if you've accomplished something and haven't wasted the whole day.
- Tighten up your emotional boundaries while also being accountable in that realm. It can be heavy enough on a personal level. No sense in carrying around stuff that belongs to some else too.
- Make a plan. Saturn LOVES plans and goals especially in the sign of Capricorn. So, instead of dreading the work week, take some steps to prepare yourself for it. Pay yourself a future favor here. You can also take a good look at your week and schedule some escape time too. Capricorn works hard. But, not for free. Schedule yourself some pay back time/reward for your well intended efforts in the week to come. Make a few spots you can look forward too instead of just wallowing in the dread.
Tomorrow is more eventful
than today. But, the Moon is very well positioned to deal here. Our
incoming Aquarius Moon? Not so much. A lot of clash happening in the
fixed signs and the Moon will find all that. But, the Capricorn does
well tomorrow but it will call you to task and accountability.
Cause...that's what the goat does.
Monday, October 15, 2018
I'm super intrigued by this
day....for a few reasons. First, Mercury and Venus find one another
in Scorpio today by conjunction. Prior to that perfecting this
evening, the Moon passes through making sextile to each this morning.
The sextile to Mercury is first at 7:48 AM EDT with Venus happening a
little over an hour later at 9:05 AM.
Now. The sextiles between
Capricorn and Scorpio are sweet. This is well boundaried energy that
allows us to meld mind, heart, worldly goals and intuition. It really
is nice. However, that's not the first thing that came to my mind.
Let me see if I can explain.
I've been referring to this
Venus retrograde as the Exorcist. I still mean that. What is being
“exorcised” is greatly determined on individual levels.
Generally, what wells up in this realm is going to show us things we
need to release (habits, relationship patterns, decisions that do not
honor/respect you, things like that) in order to have full and less
encumbered access to Venus' blessings. But. I”m seeing it play out
quite literally as well. I'm seeing folks being “raised from the
grave.” And, no...not through seance. Not through ghost sightings.
But, through unplanned meetings/run ins with folks, mere memories or
dreams of the deceased, unexpected things that trigger memories of
folks who are gone from this physical existence. No metaphor in that.
I'm talking the literal dead. Personal archaeology, genealogy or
remembrance of those who have left this form of physical existence.
And you know, we talk about
the veil thinning this time of year and this kind of “mood” is
kind of par for the course. But, what I see here with Mercury joining
the mix...is potential conversations about those who have passed,
more dreams/memories and under a well boundaried Capricorn Moon? An
opportunity that can be used to actually communicate with those who
have moved on...if you are into that sort of thing and have interest
in it this is the sky. I do caution you, Capricorn nor Scorpio take
much lightly. This isn't something you want to just jump into. But,
the energy really fits for this.
It can even used in a way
that you don't have to actually try to raise the dead or call anyone
in. For example, say you have been reminded recently of someone who
has passed on. Perhaps you wish there is something you could have
said to them. A thought you had always wanted to share
or..well...anything at all up to and including a chance for a deeper
sense of closure. So, what I'm talking about is a chance to
say/write/communicate things you have always wanted to say with a
really good chance of that message getting passed to the deceased. In
an effort to bring healing or closure to you and maybe even that soul
in whatever current form of existence that it finds itself. And, OF
COURSE, it can also be used for the same in your living
relationships. But, yep. You want to speak or commune with the
non-living? Here is your big fat beautiful chance.
It is also good for
declaring intention toward releasing attachment to unhealthy things
or relationships. There is a lot of good energy to employ (Capricorn)
in this general mixture under the theme of healthy communication,
closure and healing. Perhaps some final goodbyes. But, no Ouija board
needed. Just you. Your heart and your thoughts/words. Writing letters
that you don't send or that are words intended for the deceased fits
very well here too. There is also chance to make amends and apologize
if that is something you feel drawn to at this time.
But, as always, sometimes it
is literal. You may hear voices or receive messages from the realm of
the dead. You could receive messages or hear the voices from folks
you were in more active relationship in the past (I personally
prefer hearing from the dead than ex's myself but again...there is
room for closure and healing here, either way.)
This conjunction happens
very near the 9th degree. So, even though Venus is RX and
headed toward 8, I”m calling out the 9th degree Scorpio
Sabian here which reads: Dental work. Interesting with Moon in
Capricorn since that sign holds influence over bones and teeth. But,
never is dental work fun for the patient. I'm inclined to say even
with the laughing gas...it's not something I would want to do if I
had too. It is RELIEF when you are struggling with issues though.
And, preventative care is key meaning taking time to have regular
check ins with a dentist (if you can afford that kind of thing) or
just being wary of the care you take of yourself in this realm. In
terms of communication, it makes me think of harmful or fake sugary
sweetness which can surely rot your teeth...lack of concern
flippantly talking with no concern for audience or impact of your
words and also the call to be proactive in terms of taking care of
yourself and being mindful of the impression you leave behind along
with the potential “biting” nature of words. Plus, nothing in
Scorpio has time for passing and meaningless social chatter. That
sign craves depth and, here, it's really looking for something it can
sink it's teeth into. Scorpio does not swim in the shallow end.
The Mercury/Venus
conjunction occurs just as the workday on the East Coast ends (about
4:30 PM). From here, the Moon relaxes gently with a sextile to
Neptune at 7:26 PM. Do know, though, that pressure could build and
there could be fears, paranoia and even nightmares...perhaps some
hauntings, even...as the Moon moves from the soft sextile with
Neptune and finds herself right under Pluto before sunrise on Tuesday
morning.

Monday doesn't look to be
too bad. But, Tuesday? That doesn't sound like a whole lot of fun to
me. First, we wake up under the dark heavy and sometimes insidious
cloud of Pluto. Then, by midday, we are under the pressure of our
First Quarter Moon which usually equates to challenge. At every First
Quarter the best way to navigate that is to take at least one
deliberate step (or at least an attempt) toward your goals. This is
especially true of this Quarter that pits Libra against Capricorn.
The big disconnect there can range from procrastination, avoidance,
waiting for someone else to do it, passive aggressive manipulation
and more. Answer being, remember what you are trying to achieve long
term. Assess the obstacle that has just risen in your path. Reaffirm
your goals and take steps toward overcoming the challenge. We aren't
blaming here. We aren't waiting for someone to save us. We are called
to take well considered..yes...but deliberate action that aligns with
those goals after reassessing whether or not they are still of
importance. Because, that will happen when your goals meet with
challenge. We will ask ourselves...is it worth it? Do I still want
it? And your next action should align with your answers.
With the Sun
in Libra and Moon in Capricorn, we are not entirely alone here. Libra
can network and seek out advice or help from others. Capricorn has a
council of chair people that can be consulted but both will bear in
mind the consequences of their actions upon others which is something
worthy of consideration. It's FINE to do something just for you. It
is not really fine, though, to trample others in the process and take
no consideration to the consequences for yourself or others that you
may leave in your wake. So, key is taking time to think things
through as a good Libra will do and then taking your chosen action
with grace, responsibility, integrity, good boundaries/sense of
direction and a cerebral consideration of how those actions/decisions
may or may not affect others.
At 5:50 PM the Moon passes
by Jupiter by sextile and wherever you are in your emotions by then
has tendency to grow and become more punctuated whether that be
self-satisfaction, frustration or regret. Do know you can and are
encouraged to shift your perspective as necessary.
The Moon is Void following
the sextile with Jupiter but will pass by Chiron in Pisces by sextile
in the middle of the night (1:44 AM EDT). There is opportunity for
healing in your sleep there or even discovering chinks in your armor
as this passes through...leaks that need repair before they worsen,
as an example.
The Moon floats into
Aquarius before dawn. And, as I mentioned before, will encounter
pressure from the rest of the fixed energy in this sky. It does
receive some lofty support, eventually, with a trine to the Sun in
Libra early on the 19th. But, she spends most of her trek
possibly feeling a bit deadlocked until then.
Wednesday, October 17,
2018
At 3:30 this morning, the
Moon enters Aquarius. By 5:17 AM she is square her ruler, Uranus in
Taurus. This can make for a startled awakening or a feeling of being
rushed or anxious as we enter the day. The key is calm and coolness.
Breathe through adrenaline surges. Deal appropriately with potential
anxieties and set your pace on diligent and methodical. If possible,
start with a grounding breakfast and moment or two of quiet time so
you can get the day off on the right foot. The Moon will feel
pressure for most of her journey through this sign.
However, Aquarius can rise
above pressure and take an analytical or logical stance when it comes
to matters that could become more messy for humans. The Aquarius Moon
can choose not to get sucked into the mess but rather stand in
observation looking for solutions, learning experiences or just
data/information in general.
At 8 AM the Moon passes over
the South Node. I see the potential for old behavior patterns to
emerge within yourself or in relation to other. Being beneficial or
not is up to your view or judgment of it. If this is a malefic type
of behavior regression, it can be redirected. If there is something
to be learned, it can be gleaned. But, if it is something that needs
to be let go, you don't have to torture yourself with it. Aquarius
has not much of a give a damn and is not really the type to torture
itself with regret. The sign is much more future oriented than that.
So, again, if you need to disconnect, let go or learn from whatever
situations may arise from this, you can. You do not have to allow
yourself to be dragged backward or tortured by the past. Learn from
it or release it all with intention and eyes forward.
At just about nightfall, the
Moon squares off with Venus in Scorpio. These two in harsh aspect are
known for producing discomfort or dissatisfaction. The key in
negotiating between the two is acknowledging the source of discomfort
without allowing yourself to get too torn up about and then, figuring
out a way that things can be changed or altered so that this feeling
is not something that is ongoing. Venus in Scorpio can cling and fall
into traps of resentment, seething, greed, envy, jealousy,
obsession...all the 7 deadlies. Plus, she doesn't really shy away
from self-torture, you know? This energy can see/feel pain a little
differently than other placements (tis the nature of Pluto/Venus) in
that pain feels like sweet misery. It can become enchanted by this
feeling and even wallow in the depths of it since feeling pain is
better than feeling nothing at all.
However, the Aquarius Moon
isn't down with this type of sweet torture. Instead, this Moon will
seek to free itself from those poisoned barbs and the weight of the
dark heavy blanket that Venus in Scorpio may soothe itself with. The
Aqua Moon wants to interject hope and optimism for the future. Venus
would rather hide in a cave and spin nihlistic fantasies or maybe
have outward tortorous plan in general for humanity at large due
potential feelings of remorse, obsession or resentment. If Aquarius
could talk to Scorpio in this instance, the sign would likely say “Be
logical, Venus in Scorpio. It makes no sense at all to put so much
effort into erradicating the entire blood liine of the guy who said
something out of the way to you 15 years ago. It would be much easier
to just let it go and remember in the future to steer away from those
types.” Venus may sneer and say, “But, vengleance should be mine.
I want to put him on a hook and play with him. Delivering his body
the sweet torture my heart has endured for the last decade and a
half.” She may drool and large enchanted eyes as she thinks of all
the wonderful ways she could share her misery with the person pegged
as the orginal offender.” Aqua would reply, “Ok. So that may be
fun...but follow that sentiment through. You hang the dude in your
basement for months. Finally he kicks the bucket. Funs over. There's
a knock on the door. Jigs up. It's the cops. And, off your seething
little rear goes to prison. Is he really worth that? Again...maybe
just forget about this asshole instead of continuing to allow what he
did in the span of a brief blip in your life control every thing you
do in the future.” Ah...Venus stops in her tracks almost as if
she'd seen a ghost, “Control? What do you mean?” Aquarius Moon
smirks and says, “This brief event is rooted so deeply in that dark
heart of yours that you can't even make a cup of coffee without
feeling the pang of it. You want to put your hooks in him? He has had
his hooks in the crook of your nose leading you around for years. And
you are making it easy.” If it's ugly, let it go. If it hurts, let
it go. If you are resentful, angry, seething...stop letting this
stuff control you. It is that simple. If you are uncomfortable or
unhappy ditch what keeps you there and move on like you don't give a
damn because you don't have to. Aquarius Moon will support you in
that and Venus will cherish the idea that she is now open for more
deeply satisfying experiences and freed from this voluntary torture.
Both are glad that an inward sense of control has been restored
following the reformation of this uncomfortable situation.
Another way the disconnect
can be felt in interactions with other people is someone who feels
like digging deep in order to regain a sense emotional health versus
the person they approach for help. It can be likened to talking to a
therapist or specialist in the medical field. Aqua Moon would take
the position as expert and give you space to air your grievances but
it's not like she is going to get wholly sunk in. Instead she
observes and analyzes what you say as the disdain oozes from you
seeking, again, for things you can do in order to fortify your future
self and be free of this. Don't expect much sympathy. Just the
analysis. If you need more, maybe wait for the Moon to roll in Pisces
because Aquarius is more inclined to provoke and lift you up rather
than hang out in the tar pits for you unless it is in the interest of
science. Whatever demons emerge proving themselves to cause you
personal heart sickness or what have you...you don't have to
entertain them or get your hands all messy in their handling. The
trash can is over there. Feel free to use it and go on with your
life. You can let it go here.
The rest of the night allows
for some rest and is good for seeking lightness or new experience. In
the morning, the Moon will continue squaring off with more bodies in
Scorpio. But, for tonight, if we allow ourselves to disconnect from
those heart sickness instigators, we may be able to rest a bit more
easily.
Thursday, October 18 ,2018
This morning at about 5 AM,
the Moon is at odds with Mercury in Scorpio. This can manifest as
headache or trouble putting how you feel into words. It can be an
emotional system that wants to move forward and feel more free versus
a mind that cannot forget. Again, purge what is necessary so that you
may regain control. Share thoughts with folks you trust or that may
be able to provide additional insight. Seek to reform negative
thought patterns and detach from more torturous mental happenings.
Redirect obsessive thought looping toward something more productive.
However, do know this pair
can sincerely do a great deal of work in the realm of research. It is
great for things like genealogy studies, detective work, research or,
again, speaking with professionals in talk therapy or what have you.
Not a comfortable thing. But, what we are doing is excavating the
mind in an effort to feel better in the future. We may do that by
having difficult or uncomfortable conversations with ourselves or
others. But, there is good use for it. Under an Aquarius Moon we are
more able to avoid getting overly emotional or sucked in as bodies in
Scorpio excavate. That is actually fairly helpful here. In walking
life there could be disconnect or disagreement between that which is
logical and that which could be viewed as demented, scornful or
insidious. Between bodies who have concern about matters of general
welfare and those who would rather exploit society by malefic means
in the interest of their own gain. There is friction in fixed signs.
Meaning, there are parts of this that will seem or actually will be
impossible, inescapable and rigid or hard to change. Yet, there is
OTHER energy out there and in your chart that you can use in order to
create change, acceptance and still maike choices.
Aside from that, anything in
the sign of Scorpio falls under the elemental rule of water. Water is
in constant movement and will absolutely follow the path or channel
of least resistance. But, Scorpio is not one to allow something
outside itself to swim in let alone direct its water. Once the sign
puts its own matter of empowerment and control into high priority, IT
CAN transition into entirely new form of existence. I mean, rebirth
and regeneration ARE a big part of what Scorpio is all about.
Therefore, the time spent here by any body including Jupiter, Venus
and Mercury such as we have here, can be used to transform or reform
absolutely anything. Key being not getting caught up in blaming,
avoidance, fear, a melancholy enchantment with self torture or
malefic intent toward others. Self-focused with a desire of truly
taking control of building a better, more fulfilling, satisfying to
you life from the inside out? Not only do you regain independence and
control but you also empower and free yourself. Empowering and
freeing being something Aquarius and Scorpio can absolutely agree on.
If you look at it step by
step, the expert analyst Moon in Aquarius gut checking Jupiter, Venus
and Mercury gives us a chance to reform in heart, mind and philosophy
in a way that can align with the agenda of both. However, it also
provides the steadfast endurance and tenacity one may need to
needlessly and completely eviserate themselves or self-destruct
within absolutely any area of their life imaginable. That relieves
pressure too, you know? But not in a way that sets your future self
up from a more free and independent from bullshit and drama
lifestyle. The healing accessible within this uncomfortable set up
can actually help to heal issues you didn't even realize you had.
Perhaps they were inherited. Coded in your DNA. Unwittingly
programmed and networked in your brain in infancy before you even
have conscious memory just occurring as you were inflicted with the
conversations around you. Either way, if trauma can affect DNA so can
the DNA of the person who heals it. Science is deep in study about
remapping the brain and have proven that doing so is possible even in
our adult years. And, once complete..it's fixed...it's deep...it may
even reach beyond your own lifetime both backward on the genetic
timeline and forward in a way that resounds in healing across
generations. And further, once you consider your future interactions
with others which will then be driven less from deeply rooted
wounding and inherited or karmic trauma or malefic conditioning and answering to an inner source of
healing instead. Dude...that's tremendous power.
It spreads just as quickly as juicy gossip wildfire
and can be as destructive a global tragedy. Yet the same powerful
impact can occur once we decide to heal on change on individual
levels. If no other reason than for the sake of our own sanity and
quality of life. If we, as individuals, are powerful enough to reach
across generations and global lines in way that what we may do may
cause further damage or harm or massive harm..it would seem to me
that a well intended individuals choice would be easy make. Key to
that being, knowing and realizing that you have at your disposal this
very power because the types of energies we have been dealing with
for..at least a decade it seems...have been very challenging. For the
individual and for the collective. At this point, some feel locked
into fatalism or impending doom. Some are tired and tortured. And, a
great many are concerned with their own future as well as the future
of our world while feeling absolutely powerless to do anything about
it.
Yet the fact of the matter
is, we are each extremely powerful and capable in ways that we may
not fully understand but can to acceptance of. And, yielding that
power doesn't even require you to get up from your current position
unless you feel that you are ready and could benefit from
professional assistance. The only requirement here is to realize by
sincerely looking at yourself with focus toward healing there instead
of becoming steeped in escapism and distraction from the outside
world you can make a huge difference. You can create ripples from
this point and outward just by fearlessly staring down and yanking
control back from the things that are inflicting you with pain,
torment and trepidation. The distraction wants to keep you where you
are. You have the choice to change that. The distraction wants to
take your power because in turmoil and discomfort, you are more
easily controlled. The distraction doesn't want you to know that you
don't need anyome's permission to change your focus. But you do. You
can make a difference. It is not out of anyone's control to do
so...but until we realize that seeking inward leads us to our true
personal source of power we will continue to feel at the mercy at
powerless in light of the whatever we crown with power in the outside
world.
Use this conflict to gather
up the thorns and things you need purge and detach from. Put them in
little vials on your Aquarius Science table and study them. Then, at
the upcoming Full Moon in Scorpio, purge them. Banish them from your
existence in favor of using your power to regenerate your life into
something more healthy and fulfilling in spite of an external world
whose malefic powers benefit more from distracting you from just
that.
But..don't expect it to be
fun. In the process, anyway. What you are aiming for is to endure the
TEMPORARY discomfort in favor of perhaps feeling and existing on a
level you often dreamed of but never really knew how to achieve.
Choice is yours. The keys are there just waiting for you to pick them
up.
None of this requires you to
have a finite or limited vision of what you can birth from this. But,
you can set intent for the feelings and types of future ventures or
interactions you are shooting for to help you discern the best way to
direct your choices as you move forward. Maybe what is will look like
is wholly outside the scope of your understanding right now. Main
thing being, it's different. It's better. It occurs under your
direction and it involves feeling more satisfied and comfortable at
the end...not worse. Realizing your power and healing must come first
though. And from now until the Full Moon in Scorpio, the heavens are
set up in such a way that we are extraordinarily supported in doing
so. Be a shame to miss that chance as the stars beg us to realize how
special and powerful we really are and how deserving we are of
something much better than what we have currently created.
After the moon's morning
square with Mercury we are going to be prone to take action. The Moon
finds Mars in Aquarius by conjunction at sunrise. Again, there may be
adrenaline, anxiety or a feeling of rush or immediacy associated with
this. But the enduring and brave influence of Scorpio driven by the
need for emotional wisdom and intelligence coming from our Moon can
be used to hold steady until that chemical response levels out. Then,
we can decide the best action to take from here instead of just
reacting. There are folks out there that will try to provoke you into
immediate response because from that position you are more easily
controlled. Yet centered and rooted in a calm stance and clear head
allows you to remain in control enough to direct that Mars energy (be
it anger, passion, desire, whatever) toward the direction of your
choice while maintaining a sense of true independence.
The Moon remains active in
the lofty sign of Aquarius for the duration of the day. There are
only minor aspects flaring that fill in the nuance on personal
levels. Yet, waxing in the background, our deep undercover detective,
Mercury in Scorpio, is trining Neptune.
As this waxes in overnight,
perfecting just before dawn on Friday, we can fall into some deep and
restorative sleep. Dreams become more vivid and detailed. Even waking
life takes on the feel of beautiful water color painting. Allowing
yourself to relax here is stellar use of this energy. The past few
days may have rather stormy. Calm descends and drifts into our access
here.
Friday, October 19, 2018
Morning fog or rain would
certainly fit the bill as Mercury in Scorpio lingers in trine to
Neptune this morning. We may feel groggy or forgetful. There is
chance for illness to affect matters of breathing or equilibrium.
Things just don't quite seem as they appear. It's a set up that can
feel as if you are awake but in trance or dreamworld. It can be used
to dissolve fears and may manifest itself as fear letting you know
exactly the places you need to focus the solvents upon. It is so
wonderfully creative and response so well to art, music, poetry.
I have had this exact trine
occurring on and off for the past year. I have a Pisces Moon square
Neptune, so, my imagination and access to Neptune are on point
anyway. I thought...really? I have so much already am I even going to
notice this? And...I SO have. Last spring this trine was in force and
in my 45 springs spent upon this planet I have never noticed how many
beautiful shades of green were actually in mother natures palette.
Everything around me looked like a beautiful painting. I've felt
immersed and surrounded by indescribable beauty and my ability to
accept, forgive, forget, transform like a malleable piece of clay may
typically very deeply and serious brain has been an experience has
helped me see things in ways I'd never experienced before. This
happening by transit allows everyone the same opportunity. Yet how it
goes is dependent upon who is steering your mental direction and how.
If you choose to see beauty and promise, you will. If you want to
leave dreamworld and focus on being trapped in nightmare land, you
can. Just know, that reality, the visual, the realm of all physical
and mental sensation are malleable, sensitive and may not be as
originally perceived. In conversations, watch for untruths or
miscommunication. This energy can also be very naive. But, under an
Aquarius Moon, we have the ability to dive into these intuitive and
creative mental energies with the equivalent of a water proof scuba
suit. In observation instead of complete immersion. In this manner,
we can more easily steer ourselves into enchantment and wonder.
It's excellent energy for
confession. Anything that deals with art or music especially if you
can weave in some modern technology or even collaborative effort in
there. Its wonderful for apology and sincere amend. It's perfect for
softening the harsher edges of your thinking and allowing empathy and
intuition to direct you from judgment and toward understanding. Enjoy
that. Just be wary the chance at forgetfulness, drifty-ness and
naivete. In the creative realm lies a chance at euphoria, peace and
catharsis by way of the venue of your choosing.
After Mercury and Neptune
trine this morning the Moon moves on to square Jupiter in Scorpio at
daybreak...thus either growing our fear or feel good depending on how
we've chosen our perspective. Then, finally, the Moon finds the Sun
by trine 8:28 AM restoring a sense of social amicability and
uplifting connection that we likely have shied away from in this week
up until now. The moon reaches Void status on this note offering us
opportunity to extend the lightness across the day.
The only issue left on the
radar is found in the fact that as Mercury in Scorpio wanes in aspect
to Neptune, he then begins to wax in harsh square to Mars in
Aquarius. Thankfully as this perfects the Moon is Void so we aren't
so prone to be overly inflicted with emotional reaction. But, it can
manifest as clumsiness, headaches, arguments, accidents and there
could be a new dawning of stress and discomfort that comes with it.
Still, the energy is the
same in terms of friction in this set up as it was when we dealt with
yesterday's Moon square to Mercury and quick conjunction to Mars
thereafter. Only difference being, it's going to be more easy to
disconnect from the emotional and form a more logical and future
minded approach since the Moon is Void. Main thing being to remain in
control of your actions instead of allowing yourself to be rushed and
remain mindfully engaged in what you are doing especially if that is
driving or may involve dangerous equipment.
The Moon remains Void until
diving into Pisces at 4:30 PM EDT. The emotional tides rise here and
we could feel some residual angst internally or through the empathic
system in relation to the world's general atmosphere. If that is the
case, the best thing to do is ground and increase energetic boundary.
Otherwise, we are quite prone to drift off into more quiet and
subdued waters. Pisces Moon is sensitive and has a limitless choice
of imaginary worlds it can create to escape into. It's Friday night
in Halloween season. Why not escape into alternate realities or
indulge in fantasy? You've an open invitation here and need not even
worry about bringing anyone with you. Pisces Moon can do alone time
and energy coming from Scorpio can do seclusion. Feel free to isolate
or invite only a select few into your cave to share your fantastical
world. Libra season or not, though, you are under no obligation to
share. That's what that Moon/Sun trine was for this morning. You can
escape the windy chatter at this point.
Before dark, the Moon is
tickled..yes...GOOD SENSATION INSTEAD OF A CATTLE PROD FROM THE BIG
NEON BLUE GUY...by Uranus. Taurus and Pisces get long juuust fine and
this little contact between the Moon and Uranus is inspiring while
remaining gentle and quiet. Taurus and Pisces really don't favor
loud. One of the many things they have in common. If you are not
feeling well, this may an aspect that brings some relief. If you are
struggling with unsavory emotions or are being slain by weak
boundaries, the sextile can help you detach, ground out and
strengthen all that.
Friday night continues in
sweetness. The Moon in Pisces drifts gently by Saturn at midnight
receiving even more gentle support. And, there is more goodness
awaiting us on dawn's next horizon.
Saturday, October 20, 2018
The Moon remains in Pisces
this morning finding her ruler, Neptune by conjunction 8:08 PM. This
is good for calling it an early night, mindfully relaxing with a
nightcap or other chosen escape or...believe or not doing laundry.
Little astrology trick? When the Moon is in Pisces near Neptune,
folks are quite prone to kind of squirrel away in solitude. So, if
you have to do chores in public and don't really want to deal with a
lot of other people then during Moon to Neptune in any form is the
energetic atmosphere that can bring it to you. Put that in your
introvert tool chest. I will likely be employing it at the laundromat
and I'm not even kidding. Besides, the set up favors anything that
deals with water and/or comfort. It fits for cleaning or working with
water. And, with a Pisces Moon, the cleaner the waters the more clear
and pleasant the experience. It's great for soaks in a hot tub,
energetic cleansings that involve homemade liquid creations, aroma
therapy, music/art therapy and offers a good chance to sneak through
the grocery store without having to deal with potentially running
into a million people you went to school with and would rather just
avoid. Pro-tip form a native Pisces Moon
From her conjunction with
Neptune, the Moon moves on to a flat out luscious trine with Venus
just before daybreak tomorrow.
Can I preach upon the beauty
of this Moon/Venus trine in these two elements? I'm talking about
Sunrise on Sunday...so why not? Remember a few paragraphs back when I
mentioned using the Aqua Moon to dispassionately gather up the
psychic thorns and garbage you planned to purge yourself of at the
incoming Full Moon? Well, as you gathered those things up, you
emptied up energetic space. You are purging these things that do not
serve you or hurt/sickens you, yes. Due that, the energy you used to
“maintain” those horror houses is freed up for...whatever you can
dream up or imagine by way of this weeks Mercury/Neptune trine AND by
way of this Moon in Pisces to Venus in Scorpio trine. You have
gathered up the garbage and cleared the foul stench out of the room.
Now you can begin dreaming and imagining what beautiful and self
fulfilling indulgences you would like to consciously choose to put in
its place. This is part of the reward for enduring the discomfort
that can come from staring down your own fears and giving yourself
permission to go through the mourning stages of detaching from things
that were more torturous than healthy. Dream it up. Indulge. Allow
your attention to focus upon what feels good and satisfying because
doing so sends out the vibration needed to draw more of that “almost
feels to good not to be sinful” wonderfulness to you. Spend your
attentive currency on that which you want to see grow. Let loose of
any feeling of being limited by anything. There are no restrictions
or limits upon what you are allowed to dream up and crown as alluring
and beautiful. Feel free to starve the dissatisfying or repugnant
out...as if it didn't even exist.
This is a night that
encourages you to dream of what it is that could bring you the
quality of life and sense of luxurious indulgences that you feel you
may have missed out so far. Don't use it to empower more fear or
oppression by misdirecting your attention to something you wish would
just go away. Follow your dreams and your bliss here. Indulge in your
pleasure guilt free. Dark chocolate? Wine? Sultry music? Intimate and
exotic pleasures? My little Venus inflicted self says, “YEEEEEEEEEES,
please.” Don't over do it, you know? This doesn't need to turn into
a toxic thing where we end up overdosing or making ourselves sick
with whatever it is we are enchanted by. But, we can and will be
quite prone to sinking into our ideas of deeply fulfilling pleasure.
PLEASURE. Right? Get you some of that.

This dreamy and creatively
cathartic energy flows over the whole of this weekend. The Pisces
Moon and multiple bodies in Scorpio can be used to create dream
worlds. But, they are not really suited for sweat and attempts at
outward production. If you have chores to take care of this weekend,
you can set your tempo to music and draw inspiration from the same as
you deal with the mundane. If you need to produce, know you may feel
lethargic and distracted but will also have access to a realm of
creative solutions that can help you produce more fluidly. It goes
sideways when you try to be all straight line and rigid fighting the
obvious softness and driftyness to these days. Give into it. Allow
yourself to drift, nap, dream and take your time. Interject this
increasing sense of creativity into your production paying attention
to the fine details and allow intuition to guide you instead of
thinking the end product has to meet some sort of predefined
ramifications. Again, maybe if you just follow this river, you can
discover that you were unable to even envision how perfect it looked
from where you were standing on the shore. You have to be trusting
and faithful enough in yourself and the creative guidance you are
given in order to allow yourself to be led into possibility above and
beyond your limited current view. Have an aim but let the final piece
of “art and creation” lead you to its own development without the
need of force. Trust and faithfulness in yourself and willingness to
relax into this are the only things you really need to pack with you.
Overnight, the Moon's water
trine captured Mercury in its current. The heart has had license of
creation and dream and that energy is now shared with our brains and
within our conversations. This is a point of full immersion and can
simply mean beautiful dreams, deeply stirring visions, memories or
interactions with the creative/emotional realm. Again, art and music
remain sources of therapeutic catharsis.
By dawn today the Moon is
deeply supported in matters of personal transformation, healthy
catharsis and empowered/focused through a delicious sextile with
Pluto. And, that is followed by a jubliant and warm pool of water
trine energy coming from the Pisces Moon in trine to Jupiter in
Scorpio.
The weeks struggles and
discomfort are worth our focus in effort to get to this weekend. It's
WORTH the effort to navigate that consciously. With Venus in
retrograde we are weighing and assessing matters of value and worth.
Here, we know there is strong potential for reward and bliss waiting
for us at the end of it making it worth our while fairly quickly. We
may not be able to see that from the shores we are standing on
midweek. Yet we can have faith in ourselves and in the fact that an
energetic wave is coming making our work assuredly worthy of the
effort. The pay off isn't immediate but it is deeply personally
effective, fulfilling and simply...worth it. Life changing stuff.
Imagine that as our Goddess Hekate opposes Neptune in Pisces
presenting a literal crossroads moment in which we can choose to be
slain by helplessness or use our desire to improve and nurse in the
interest of healing to change our lives one way or another. There is
no going back after you make your decision. That does not have to be
a bad thing, either. The power of creation in that realm is totally
at your command whether you realize that or decide to continue to
deny it. That is entirely up to you.
After the trine with Jupiter
the Pisces Moon rests soundly in Void status. She will make a
conjunction to Chiron now in Pisces before reactivating in the sign
of Aries at about 3:30 AM. This weekends rest leads us into a week in
which we are ready to bravely engage. Make sure you are quite
familiar with what weaponry and power you have to employ by then and
with the expertise of an out of shadow Mars in Aquarius be prepared
to employ your initiatives and physical energy at an expert precise
level directed exactly under your the capacity of your own control.
We wake up and are ready to chase after more of what we found in this
weekends beauty. Prepare to be hungry and geared toward hunting it
down. There is more opportunity to build upon this in our days to
come and on our way toward this extremely powerful Full Moon in which
we are granted permission to completely banish toxins,
manipulation...anything we find that may be blocking us from our
access to the more deeply fulfilling blessings of Venus. Yet the
pivot point in determining whether this becomes an exalting and life
altering beneficial switch of the tides or something allowed to drag
us deeper into the depths of personal despair comes as we attempt to
traverse the challenges presented to us under the Aquarius Moon. And,
once we cross those challenges for better or worse, it's simply not
going to be possible to turn around have things remain “as they
were” either way. As the pressure comes know that's your cue that
the opportunity toward beneficial change is trying to birth itself
into your life. YES YOURS! Don't allow it to scare you but instead
allow it to confirm the wonderful possibilities you can...if you
dare...almost feel just around the corner. Get ready to go get it.
