Full Moon in Capricorn and the Eagle

 





















Full Moon tonight, folks. Yesterday's post was about the Solstice and the Lunar Standstill and tonight, we have a Full Moon in the early hours of the 22nd June. Let's have a look at what story the sky is offering us. 

From the diagram on the left, you can see how the Sun and Moon are opposite each other. The exact moment of the Full Moon occurs as the Moon is setting in the west (position at 3 o' clock is where the West lies in a zodiac chart). The Moon is also out-of-bounds, making its nature something of a wild card. Hence, this Full Moon is highly charged, especially because of the aspects it makes to Neptune.
The nebulous Neptune is a planet associated with illusion and delusion and can be deceptive. It tends to have a dissolving nature; whenever Neptune is involved in an aspect, it can don artistic genius but also take you down the rabbit hole. 
Whatever the case, be aware of Neptune's nebulous power. This is a Full Moon, which means that the intentions set at the New Moon two weeks ago should find fruition. If we take Neptune's power as a means to tap into our creativity, then perhaps this could manifest as an opportunity to see something with a different perspective in spite of the challenges (Neptune is square the Full Moon - 90 degrees away from both Sun and Moon). 
Also, Pluto, the planet associated with change and transformation, is positioned on the Midheaven, conjunct the fixed star Aquila, the eagle. Pluto is ascribed with the ability to see what lies beneath, and yet Aquila the eagle has the bird's eye view. Putting it together with Neptune's influence. it offers us the ability to see through the illusion. Think of all the alternative information floating on the web; this Full Moon challenges us to stop, think and use our intuition to see through the illusion. 
Then we have the Sun/Venus conjunction: these two planets are in Cancer, the sign to do with the mother, all that is soft and nurturing. Our emotions are influenced by the structure of Capricorn. This is again another sign that the challenge during this Full Moon is concerned with seeing through what mainstream information is being fed to us. 
Long story short, be the Eagle. 

I hope you enjoyed reading this. 
Blessings,

The March Lunar Eclipse and Full Moon....and more

Image
  Tomorrow's Full Moon is a lunar eclipse, heralding the eclipse season for 2024. It occurs at 08:00 and will not be visible from our part of the world.  One thing to note is that due to precession, the zodiac and the constellations are out of synch by about 30 degrees, so whilst we say that the Moon is in the sign of Libra, the Moon will appear in the sky with Virgo as its backdrop. For the scope of this chart reading, I will be referring to the Moon as being in the sign of Libra.  So how does this eclipse affect us mortals? By looking the chart, we assess which planet is making an aspect to another. Because the chart changes according to time and place (for example, in London, this eclipse occurs at 07:00, and therefore the Ascendant and Midheaven changes). The chart for this Full Moon is quite interesting. The most notable aspects are the Sun/Pluto sextile, the Venus/Jupiter sextile and the Moon/Pluto trine.  These are all harmonious aspects. Remember that this is a lunar eclips

New Moon in Leo.... and more (read on).

  Are you feeling the heat? Astrologically, a new moon is all about implementing new plans, bringing others to a close and setting new intentions. Although this is stated in each of the blog posts, they are not the same for each new moon in a year. A new moon in Cancer is not the same as a new moon in Pisces, though theoretically they are both water signs. What you may find is that if you keep a personal journal, during the Leo New Moons period the same issues generally tend to crop up. Of course, the planets are in different positions at any given new moon, when a seed is sown. Ask your gardener whether they would sow any seeds after the full moon...  This month's new moon  is in the fiery sign of Leo and occurs at around 13:30 on the 4th August. As such, a new moon in Leo focuses on the issue of creativity, as Leo is a sign associated with the heart and putting our ideas/creations out there into manifestation, and also being recognised for our works of art, be they ideas, or chil

Solar Eclipse and its links to 1501....

  And here it is... the chart for the New Moon in Aries, also a total solar eclipse. I've been reading a lot of different takes on this eclipse. Let me explain why there are different views on it.  Fact number one: different astrologers will have different takes on it depending on what they see in the chart. That is why astrology is not only a science, but also an art. This is why I suggest reading a variety of interpretations of astrological perspectives on this eclipse (or any other, for that matter) and see what you can take from it.  Fact number two: eclipses do not affect everyone in the same way. It makes sense that if you are the leader of an organisation, what you are dealing with may affect others. A prime example is the  current Prince of Wales' chart. Prince William was born on the day of a solar eclipse (I mentioned this in a few of my posts on this blog). This, in itself, is not unusual as eclipses do occur bi-annually. However, as the future King of England, it do
