New Moon in Capricorn

We are indeed living in the most chaotic of times and you chose to incarnate for this wild show or you would not be reading this newsletter. You would be off in another reality entirely but you’re not! You’re here! And you can experience this ride any way you choose. You probably are feeling the entire range of emotional responses to the unfolding drama in our world. Pandemic. Seditious insurrection. Violence. Darkness revealed in all its depths. No question about it – a wild, wild ride.

So..what to do? get out your tool box of self-care tools. Nothing demands self-care like crisis. And crisis always presents opportunity for change and even though change is inevitable, most of us humans don’t like change at all. So when you are confronted with things that you don’t like, that make you feel out of control, or frighten you, or depress or sadden you or infuriate you, and maybe all these emotions are bombarding your nervous system at the same time, the only sane choice is to amp up self-care.
Love on yourself as if you have been just been traumatized because you might indeed feel highly traumatized. You might feel neutral about what is unfolding and you might feel nothing at all. You might even feel excited about the dark/light battle coming out in the open. As unique as you are you are feeling exactly what you are feeling and no matter what you are feeling self-care is a must in order to hold the lantern of light for yourself and for those you affect.
Self-care is doing things that relax and comfort you. Personally I am a huge advocate of bathing. First I slough off dead skin with a coconut fibre dry brush. Very gentle brushing making strokes towards the lymph nodes. (You can read more about dry-brushing with Leda Lum on youtube ). Then I take a hot hot bath into which I have put at least a half cup of epsom salts and lately I’ve been attracted to lavender and geranium essential oils (just a few drops of each). Only use the highest quality essential oils as whatever is in your bath will go directly into your body. I use lavender for its relaxing qualities and I like the geranium as it keeps me feeling vibrant while relaxing. Nice combo for me. You choose the scents that work for you. No bathtub? Use one of your friend’s. I once lived in a house with no bathtub and kept a relationship going way too long with a guy who had an amazing bathtub in the mountains with a skylight. What can I say? Priorities.
Eat well. I have been doing intermittent fasting, which my body loves. I don’t eat after 8pm and then I eat again after noon the next day. I do have teas and water during the non-eating times. My body feels really clean with intermittent fasting and I think it’s worth a try of you’re feeling full and stopped up and generally irritable. Eat lots of veggies and go easy on sugar (none is preferable) and categorically avoid anything processed. Drink water, water, water. Help your body de-toxify from all the emotions bombarding your system.
Monitor your exposure to news. I am so visually and auditorily sensitive I watch snippets of the news on my phone but not videos at all. I find that once an image has entered my mind it’s virtually impossible to remove it and I tend to focus on those images so I don’t watch news videos. Whatever you need to do to keep yourself sane, do that. I have a dear friend who is so sensitive she does not watch or listen to the news. She spends her days creating beautiful knitted hearts and other love tokens and then distributes them to her neighbors. You don’t have to gorge on the news. There is seditious insurrection and a pandemic rushing through our reality and of course you know this so manage your exposure to news.
Do kindnesses. The vibration of kindness is very high. When you’re feeling particularly freaked out, do a kindness for yourself or another. It’s amazing how much an act of kindness can shift your energy and then you’re adding light to the world. Any light added to the world is fabulous! On our neighborhood email list a neighbor put out a request to help a family in need. Seven cars and trucks showed up with groceries and gifts. Now that’s what I’m talking about! You may not be able to control what’s happening in the big picture but the JOY and care you bring to your personal picture makes a huge difference. And you will feel better. And that is critical – that you feel better.
MOVE YOUR BODY put on your favorite tunes and dance around or work out or take a walk. You need to move to keep your lymphatic system working, to keep toxins from accumulating in your body, creating discomfort and disease. Getting oxygen to your cells brings JOY to the body, keeping all your systems flowing and doing their magic to keep you alive!
SLEEP Absolutely nothing is more important than getting enough good quality sleep. Sleep helps the body relax and integrate everything coming at you. I use cbd to ensure I get good, deep sleep, which I do. And I let myself sleep as much as I want. During the day sometimes a massive nap, sometimes a cat nap and sometimes I sleep way way past my usual 7a.m. wake-up time. Whatever are your sleep needs – give that to yourself. Staying up fretting and worrying does nobody any good.
So I can tell you what’s happening astrologically, which of course I will, but knowing the celestial gossip in the general sense may not be relevant to your personal life. For instance you might be in a very calm and cocooned emotional space or you might be revved up to mach12 hysteria or anywhere in between. You might also greatly fluctuate in your emotional experience. Whatever you are experiencing – it is right and appropriate for you! Having a personalized reading supports you in knowing exactly where you are and how to navigate to where you want to be.
New Moon at 23 degrees Capricorn

New Moon in Capricorn 1. 12. 21

As New Moons are intention-setting cosmic openings we experience each month in the lunar cycle, setting your intentions for how you wish to see your world unfold in its evolutionary process is time well spent on this propitious first New Moon of 2021! The Sun and Moon at 23 degrees Capricorn are in ridiculously close conjunction with Pluto, hence the palpable intensity of this time we are all navigating.

Significantly ginormous changes are occurring in the systems of our reality especially as it relates to power and authority. And indeed that is blatantly obvious. Abuse of power. Hidden agendas now right in our faces. Re-setting your intentions for PEACE and UNITY and coming together for the GOOD of ALL is of paramount importance. Don’t dwell in the problem. Go for solution. Go for the vision you hold dear in your heart.
Neptune at 18 degrees Pisces and Ceres at 15 degrees Pisces are conjunct at the this New Moon, supporting your dreams of a nurturing society where all are cared for and all are nourished.
The Neptune-Ceres conjunction squares the North Node (at 19 degrees Gemini) of destiny, challenging you to hold to your vision, regardless of present circumstances. Hold fast to your dreams and visions. They are what lead you out of pain into manifestation.
Mercury, Jupiter, and Saturn are conjunct in the early degrees of Aquarius. New ideas are being born and the collective is coming more into focus as priority. Aquarius, ruled by Uranus, is chaotic in its nature but ultimately leads to liberation. Keep your eye on the ultimate outcome, not on the brokenness you need to navigate en route to realizing your dream reality. The Mercury-Jupiter-Saturn conjunction makes a tight square to the Mars-Uranus conjunction
Mars at 2 degrees Taurus conjoins Uranus at 6 degrees Taurus and Black Lilith at 9 degrees Taurus. This is a pretty volatile combination (hence the Kilauea volcano eruption happening on the big island of Hawaii!) so buckle up for more potential erratic behaviors and outbursts as these energies play out. The shadow is being exposed and it is not pleasant, to say the least. Out of the chaos will be born something new, though the process can be quite intense, as we are seeing and experiencing in our world today. Birth pangs of a new reality. yee-ouch!!
Venus at 5 degrees Capricorn squares Chiron at 5 degrees Aries. Heart wounds are challenged. Seeing your wounds and where you lack love for self and others opens the door to new ways of feeling.
More on working with Venus in Capricorn at FEED YOUR VENUS.
This New Moon brings opportunities to know yourself more deeply and to align yourself with the integrity of your choices, What new JOY will you bring into your world today? What is your commitment to your truth? Powerful times call for powerful commitment.
Personally I am choosing LOVE, no matter what.
“There are challenges in life that can distract you from LOVE and the nature of its form. It is important to see through LOVE within all individuals and all situations, remembering that a mind set on conscious intention of LOVE will ignite and receive LOVE.“

Full Cancer Moon 12.29.20 – Did I hear someone say 2021?

Full Moon at 8 degrees Cancer
December 29, 2020
8:28pm Mountain time

magical late afternoon light of december

I just love the late afternoon December light in the foothills of the Rockies. There is something so magical and trance-like about it, the last rays of light before early sunsets and the rising of winter constellations. A time of reflection on the year passing as I consider the possibilities for the new year just ahead.

That 2020 has been, and continues to be, even in the final days of the year, a game-changer is obvious. What you do with the shifting sands of time and space is your call. This is the reason I am so attracted to astrology. Your birth chart holds all the seeds of your full potential and the timing of the germination and blossoming of those seeds. I find that when you know this about yourself you are more likely to focus your attention on your potential, less on what you did not accomplish and who you have not been. Too often we tend to focus on our failures rather than our successes, forgetting that life is a journey and living is a process, not a static experience. Nothing is ever going to stay the same and the more adaptable and willing you are to fully inhabit your unique wonderfulness, the way more fun will be the ride. Or at very least, you won’t be asleep at the wheel of your own life, missing all the good stuff.
The last Full Moon of 2020 falls on December 29 at 8:28pm mountain time. The Full Moon is at 8 degrees Cancer opposite the Sun at 8 degrees Capricorn. Each Full Moon offers you a time to re-calibrate and re-assess what needs to be adjusted and released to create more balance through the energies of the signs that are involved. The Cancer-Capricorn axis asks you to look at the balance of the Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine energies in your own life. Where are you directive and forceful? Where are you more receptive and nurturing? Are there adjustments you can be making in your awareness and focus to bring these more into balance? Remember that the terms masculine and feminine refer to energies and not gender.
The houses where the Full Moon falls in your own chart will show you the areas in your own life where these energies will play out. Following the New Moon and Full Moon energies in your own chart each month supports an opportunity to re-balance and re-calibrate on a monthly basis. And who doesn’t need that? If you would like a personalized transit and lunation mini-reading sent to your phone each month sign up at READINGS.
I always like to do a thorough cleaning out of my stuff at year’s end. Files, closets and especially I like to give all my crystals a nice bath. As you can see Arthur is helping. Cleanse your crystals frequently as they pick up all sorts of stuff -yours and other people’s. Cleanse them so they can work best for you and your intention-setting.
What else is happening in the cosmos?
Mercury conjoins the Sun for the Full Moon. Mercury in Capricorn is all about keeping the goal insight and having the mental discipline to stay on task. Mercury in Capricorn can be overly directive and accomplishment-oriented. Along with Mercury in Virgo a Capricornian Mercury can set an unrelenting standard. Beware! The unrelenting standard is endlessly tedious and exhausting.
The Full Moon axis makes a square to Chiron at 5 degrees Aries. Lunar illumination on your wounds and where you might need to take some risks to take action to release them. Awareness is step #1. Then you can release them to the infinite void where they will be transformed into something else entirely.
The Sun makes a trine aspect of opening and ease to Black Lilith and Uranus. Spontaneous liberation from the power your shadow side holds. Release and liberation. Let it be so.
Jupiter and Saturn have entered the futuristic sign of Aquarius, The future has arrived. And it is us.
With the dawning of the AGE of Aquarius I am excited to bring into the world the condensed and re-compiled ebook version of The LOVE BOOKS re-named Illuminations on the New Energies of LOVE.
I am putting the final perfectionistic touches on the ebook so it will be birthed in the new year.
In line with the core theme of Full Moon release of negative thought, specifically about negative self-talk here is one of my favorite channelings of the book:
“To recognize what is inside your heart, to see what lies inside yourself there needs to be a written understanding of what is NOT, then a conscious release of inaccurate false self-titles. Write down all the titles you have given yourself and that have been placed upon you. Look at those titles and see which ones are true and correct and which are not. This list is NOT to be obsessed over or even re-read. Allow what is incorrect to be forgotten. Discard, let go of, release all negative self-titles. Take that piece
of paper and rip it to shreds, burn it, flush it, release all negative self-titles back to the INFINITE.”
I can hardly wait to share the full channelings with you! They are beautiful and timely. Just what we all need to hear right about now!

The Grand Conjunction and the Winter Solstice 2020

Grand Conjunction as the Sun enters Capricorn – the Winter Solstice

The winds picked up like mad this morning, adding to the excitement of the cosmic events happening in our neighborhood of the galaxy. I love the wind and feel it so deeply in every cell that change is in the air!

We are in the energy of the most anticipated GRAND CONJUNCTION between Jupiter and Saturn at zero degrees Aquarius. The last time Jupiter and Saturn conjoined in Aquarius was in the year 1405. And that’s not a typo.
Jupiter will move through Aquarius for a year. Saturn will transit Aquarius for a bit more than 2 years. Expect LOTS of change in 2021. Aquarius is ruled by the dynamic change-making energy of the planet Uranus. Always expect the unexpected when Aquarian energy is involved. Disruption, chaos, and paradigm-busting inventions leading to liberation, freedom, and global connectivity. There is emotional detachment in the sign of Aquarius which allows for the genius energy to come through without the drama of the emotional realm. Does this mean we will no longer be emotional? Ha! That is never going to happen in our lifetimes but there will be more growth and expansion in the scientific fields and breakthroughs that can liberate many who are tied to old, outmoded ways. Aquarian consciousness is global and intergalactic.
I have been watching the conjunction for the past several weeks. This evening it will be viewable right after sunset in the western sky as the Sun transits the very last degree of Sagittarius before moving into zero degrees Capricorn, the Winter Solstice occurring at 3:02am Mountain time tonight. The GRAND CONJUNCTION is right on the heels of the Sun so catch it right at sunset if the skies are clear. It will look like a super bright start but remember that stars sparkle but planets don’t. The conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn will not sparkle but it will be epic. The true dawning of the Age of Aquarius! And, of course, even if you are unable to see it, the effects are still impacting you – all of us!. And there are always amazing night sky images viewable at EarthSkyNews.
The Winter Solstice, when the Sun enters Capricorn heralds the return of longer days in the Northern hemisphere and longer nights for our friends in the Southern hemisphere.
So what does it all mean? Basically it comes down to this:
Jupiter is expansion. Saturn is contraction.
Jupiter will expand the genius, forward-thinking, innovative energy along with the signature unpredictability and chaos of Aquarius. Saturn will hold this energy into a form that can be used to uplift and revolutionize our way of living on the planet. Jupiter expands. Saturn gives form. Too much expansion and nothing ever gets done. Too much constriction and there is not room for growth. These energies combined in the exciting energy of Aquarius is going to make for a pretty unforgettable 2021 for bringing in the new. And there will be no turning back.
If you are wanting to return to normal, how things have been, that may be more difficult than you think. The more open you are to what is coming down the pike to uplift and expand your life experience the more you will enjoy the ride. Embracing the NEW with delight, releasing what no longer works, can be quite liberating but for many it can feel like quite a lot of work. Choose to have all transitions be easy by working on trusting the unfolding of your own life journey. Each story, each individual unique.
it’s going to become increasingly difficult to dance to anyone else’s drum but your own, Seek out the groups where you can really be yourself. Aquarius supports the unique expression of you as an individual within the context of the groups you feel are supportive family, which may or may not be your birth family.
Individual identity awareness within group consciousness is another theme of 2021. Doing your part your way will be the perfect contribution to the whole. Know who you are, what you enjoy doing, and how you enjoy giving, to step easefully into the magic potential of this powerful new energy!
And, as always in the skies, the GRAND CONJUNCTION isn’t the only thing happening! The other planets are still doing their thing and adding their influence to the mix of energies influencing us here on beautiful Earth.
Mercury just entered Capricorn, turning the conversation to a more sober and responsible feel. Working hard to achieve goals in a methodical, practical way is the Capricorn signature.
Venus is transiting Sagittarius, expanding your attraction principle to higher consciousness and a bigger picture/perspective. More on how to work with Venus in Sagittarius and increase your attraction potential at Feed Your Venus.
Mars is cruising through Aries, adding speed and action to the cosmic cocktail.
Uranus is at 7 degrees Taurus. Earth changes inevitable as the shake-it-up planet moves through the earthy sign of Taurus. Jupiter and Saturn will both triggering Uranus in January.
Neptune is moving forward at 18 degrees Pisces. Dreamtime is a powerful source of potential.
Pluto is moving slowly forward at 23 degrees Capricorn. As Jupiter and Saturn move away from conjoining Pluto, changes will feel less devastating and more liberating.
Is there a magic pill to make all this easier?
YES! It’s called adaptability.
The more adaptable you are to change, the less you resist the flow
and the more you rejoice in the new,
the easier and more fun this whole journey will be!
