Full LEO Moon lights the way for Mercury retrograde

Right after the inauguration and the epic coming forth of the Divine Feminine in ways I could not have imagined, including a bright sprite of a young priestess, our poet laureate of poet laureates, the voice of our hearts, I realized that my shoulders have been in my ears for quite some time. Though I would have liked to have seen the women dressed more warmly without the stockings and high heel ridiculousness in the freezing cold of January in D.C. but I am from another time and place in clothing design where I think all should dress for comfort and personal style and not to satisfy some socially accepted norm that might be absurd (and often is) for the wearer. Happy day it will be when a woman in political office can be as comfortable in her work clothing as she is when she is doing her most creative work and for some that may be stockings and heels! I like to dream BIG! and the men – clearly ties have choked off necessary oxygen to the brain of many so that will also be a grand day as well when men can be more comfortable.

Is it any wonder that futuristic depictions of people have them garbed in what is basically pajamas/work-out clothes? Comfort and JOY, star gazers, comfort and Joy for all! Because what is MOST IMPORTANT now, and in the times to come, is that we have free access to our creative genius, that YOU have free access and support for your unique creative genius.

And nothing screams CREATIVITY as clearly as the Full Moon in LEO…

Full Moon at 9 degrees LEO

Thursday, January 28

12:16pm mountain time

This Full Moon squares Uranus at 6 degrees Taurus

squares the Mars-Black Lilith conjunction at 10 degrees Taurus

The Sun at 9 degrees Aquarius is in exact conjunction with Jupiter

and still conjunct Saturn at 6 degrees Aquarius

I always get super activated around this Aquarius-Leo energy of the Full Moon in Leo. As the Sun transits Aquarius, ruled by rebel genius and chaos-maker Uranus, the creative impulse of the Sun is illuminated by the endless creativity of the emotional nature expressed through Leo. Leo, ruled by the SUN, is the radiant energetic pulse of creativity that flows through you as the very air you breathe. Creativity is your very essence. You are creating your entire life experience moment by moment. I love this Full Moon energy for supporting you to look at what you are creating with the intuitive knowingness of the your emotional realm. Does what you are creating FEEL good to you? if you want to create something different from what you are experiencing, take a turn in the direction to do just that.

True creativity knows no boundaries, is enslaved by no one and no thing. Creativity is entirely your God Spark and your joy to pursue, each expression of creativity unique and exciting.

Uranus squaring the Full Moon imparts an edgy twist and allows for creativity way out of the traditional bounds of what you thought possible. Give yourself plenty of downtime this Full Moon to really feel into receiving creative ideas. You might be quite surprised what comes through.

The Full Moon squares the Mars/Black Lilith conjunction. You could have dramatic break-throughs and clarity that help you remove what have been roadblocks to your forward movement.

Awareness leads to those ‘ah-ha’ moments that can bring creative and joyful new opportunities.

Will you take what is offered?

Jupiter and Saturn create an embrace around the Sun, expanding all possibilities while giving form to innovative, liberating ideas.

And then MERCURY steps in…

Mercury retrograde

January 30 – February 21

28 degrees Aquarius back to 11 degrees Aquarius

Mercury has already been cruising through the mentally dynamic AIR sign Aquarius, joining Jupiter and Saturn and now the Sun transiting there, since January 17. As if I have to tell you….things have been moving crazy quickly and surprises seem to be popping up around every corner. Expect more of the unexpected. Ideas will be racing through your own mind as Mercury turns retrograde from January 30 through February 21. You will have some time to filter through all that is being downloaded. If you are a speed-brainer you will enjoy this upgraded momentum very much. If you’re of a more naturally slower pace best to buckle up as things are speeding up to warp and that might not feel so comfortable for you.

All kinds of symptoms in the body are to be expected as huge amounts of crystalline energies are being directed at the planet. Think of rainbow light with crystalline colors sparkling all around you, a wonderland of fantastic new vibrations. In my own body I have been experiencing what I call ‘cold flashes’ where I will be freezing cold and nothing seems to warm me up. And then it passes. My body can feel brittle, like I could fall over and break and then the next moment I feel great. All this Aquarian energy plays havoc on your nervous system so best to tend to the needs of your body with utmost love and caring attention.

Like you would GROUND in an electrical storm – do that – as these powerful new energies can feel like an electrical storm to your body.
