Full SUPER Moon
21 degrees Capricorn
13 July 2022
12:37pm Mountain time
The Moon’s orbit around the Earth is elliptical so the MOON varies in its distance from the Earth depending on where it is in its orbit. This Full Moon is the closest to the Earth that it ever gets and so it will appear ginormous, which it already does. I watched it on an evening walk last night and it already looked huge and it’s still a day away from being completely Full. For moon viewing nothing better than tonight’s viewing and for impact, well,a Supermoon intensifies everything,
Ah..more intensity – as if we need more intensity, right?
As the Moon affects the tides and all things connected to the rhythmic flow (which is just about everything) do not be surprised if emotions run extra high and you feel particularly emotionally triggered, especially around issues of authority (Capricorn) and nurturing (Cancer).

Full Moon in Capricorn
7,13,22

The Full Capricorn SuperMoon is conjoined by Pluto which can only mean that really, really deeply buried emotional patterns around your emotional needs are going to be primed for long-lasting, profound release and transformation. Are you willing to look at where you hold to emotional patterns that are no longer viable in your present reality? Are you willing to be 100% present to your story and, if that story no longer supports your personal growth, are you willing to let it go? Do you have ongoing stories about people in your life, past and present, stories that keep you locked into a feeling state that brings you down? Are you wiling to release those stories and see what better and more life-affirming stories could rush in to take their place?

The ka-trillion dollar question: are you willing to let go of what no longer serves you?
And what about the endless distractions we all engage in? Do these distractions keep you from letting
go and moving on to a happier, more expansive experience? Mercury opposing the Moon will bring communication front and center. Watch for communication coming from your emotions and see how your thoughts will reveal to you what is lingering in your programming that can keep the emotional hurts circulating through your awareness.
Jupiter transiting Aries (stationing retrograde at 8 degrees Aries on July 28) so wants to bring some movement, action in your life, but how hard is it to move forward when endless distractions entice you away from your true goal? I am thinking of one of my all-time favorite movies, Chariots of Fire, and how the coach and Harold Abrahams viewed videos of the races over and over and how the coach showed Harold how he lost a critical race by turning his head to see where the other runner was. Yes! When you are distracted by what others are doing you are immediately pulled away from your own run, your own experience. Are you willing to focus on your own growth and allow distractions to fall away? Every time you indulge in distractions you give your power away. And you need your power fully intact and functioning at its highest potential to navigate this epic time of birthing a new reality.
I had a very vivid image during a reading I was doing the other day. I saw what felt like a very chaotic, war-like scene and a woman giving birth. It was clear that all my attention needed to be 100% focused on the birth, not giving any attention at all to the chaos happening around me. As you navigate the birth of the new reality give 100% of your attention to the birth, resisting the urge to focus on the chaos. Be fully in your power. Your power is where your focus of attention is. Where is your focus of attention? Keep checking in with yourself and as you wander from what you want to birth, bring your attention back.
This is the way to bring yourself back into your power. Your power is ALWAYS in the present moment,
not remorsing and catastrophizing the past or the future. Your power is only and ever in the present.
Keep bringing yourself back into the present.
Saturn, Neptune, and Pluto are all moving retrograde these days, slowing down and directing their influence more intentionally. Jupiter will be joining the retrograde planets in their seemingly backward moving motion on July 28. Uranus will station retrograde on August 24. End of August and through September Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto will all be moving retrograde, helping you to focus, focus, focus on what you evolve in yourself and how you will do that. Exciting!

Take time to be in Nature as much as possible. Make it a necessary priority. Get your feet on the earth, anywhere you are. Mountains, beach, park. Seek out the earth and let her feed you with her magic potion of LIFE. If you can view the spectacular Supermoon tonight
Your feet are on the ground but we come from the stars.

As above, so below.

New Moon Cancer 6.28.22 Revealing what was hidden even from yourself

NEW MOON at 7 degrees Cancer

Black Lilith conjoins the New Moon

New Moon in Cancer

The first New Moon of the summer is upon us. For my friends ‘down under’ it’s your Winter. We in the Northern climes are reveling in flowers blossoming like mad as those elsewhere are enjoying the fruits of Nature’s loving cornucopia of wonders, appropriate to your environs. I feel it to be critical these days to search out beauty in all its forms, to feed your heart with wonder, to inundate your senses with deliciousness. All that is happening outside your personal reality is occurring and will be there for you to experience and integrate if and when you choose to engage. I find it best to get tidbits of news here and there but predominantly I am focused on envisioning and living as much in peace as I possibly can.

Who is to create the new reality if not us?
Focusing on the drama details of the massive consciousness shift we are surfing prevents you from living in the creative, delicately nuanced NOW you are manifesting with each intention, with each inhale and each exhale. Never for a moment forget the powerful creator being that you are. Your clear intentions for what you wish to experience is vital right now to keep us all moving in the right direction of personal and collective liberation – the freedom for each sentient being to live in safety and abundance.
I was thinking of some friends that went on a river rafting trip last week and the unmistakably simple truths the river teaches:
you cannot fight the flow of movement and change
it’s useless to paddle against the current
you have to all work harmoniously together to reach your common goal
the views are better from the hidden, hard-to-reach places
and, most importantly, the more joy the better!

Jupiter squares the New Moon in Cancer

The New Moon at 7 degrees Cancer on June 28th is conjoined by the asteroid Black Lilith. Black Lilith represents our shadow, the part of you that is unknown even, or especially, to yourself. When Black Lilith gets triggered in your birth chart you usually will have a pretty significant ah-ha and revelation about yourself. It can seem somewhat counter-intuitive to have a shadow influence be illuminated at the dark of the lunar cycle. One might imagine that the Full Moon would shed more light, but with the intense inner focus of the New Moon you might be very surprised at what gets revealed through your own intuitive impulses. You might be drawn to have experiences out of the norm or just outside your usual comfort zone, all with the purpose of revealing to you things about yourself that you didn’t know or maybe didn’t want to know, and especially the parts of you that refuse to accommodate other people’s truths.

As the Moon in Cancer is actually ruled by the Moon herself (each sign has a ruling planet or luminary) you can expect heightened sensitivity and highly activated intuition particularly around the topics of self-care and self-nurturing. Perhaps a spa treatment is in order, something that honors and nurtures your emotional nature, the part of you that deeply desires to be properly and abundantly cared for. And guess what? Being cared for begins with you caring for you. As you deeply nurture yourself and tend to your emotional needs you could learn some deep truths about yourself. And isn’t that what this whole school of life is about? Learning to know yourself more and more deeply so that you can be the essential YOU all the time, not just in bits and bobs of passing illumination and random fancy. Set your INTENTION for what you wish to experience next with a particular focus on answering deeply honestly:
“What do I need for myself right here, right now?”
Jupiter at 7 degrees Aries makes an exact square to the New Moon. Squares usually create some sort of friction or urge to shift and adjust energies and circumstances. A square from Jupiter asks you to look to where you are giving and doing too much and where energy needs to be pulled back in and re-directed. This square specifically asks you to evaluate where you are over-giving and where that energy needs to be reined in for your own self-care.
Venus and Mercury are both transiting the conversational sign of Gemini. This is an excellent time to tell your truth, say what’s real for you, with the loving embrace of Venus to sweeten your words. And listen to your favorite music to uplift your thoughts.

Johnny Depp living his second Saturn return

Of interesting astrological note: I happened to catch just a smidge of the Johnny Depp case and easily slipped in to why astrologers love to track events in celebrity’s lives – because we have access to their charts (they’re all online), their well-publicized trials and tribulations, successes and crashes. As Johnny Depp was navigating his personal nightmare, which seriously de-railed his career, Saturn was at the exact degree of Saturn at his birth (23 degrees Aquarius) and so for his 2nd Saturn return he is having a profound death- rebirth experience His next movie will probably be his most successful to date. Personally my favorite was Benny and Joon in which he never spoke a word but sold that role like no one else could.

Sagittarius Full Supermoon 6.14.22

Aspens dancing to welcome the FULL MOON

I saw the almost full moon last evening on a walk and I was wowed by the everything of it. Tonight expect even more of a show as the June Full moon is also a supermoon, closest to Earth in its elliptical orbit, seeming close enough to touch with merely an outstretched hand. Colors seem more vibrant these days, senses heightened to Nature’s welcoming the Summer Solstice, when the Sun enters zero degrees Cancer on June 21. All of life itself is bursting with energy to grow, to feel, to experience and we with it.

Every month we are given the opportunity of the Full Moon energy to release and let go, rather like a cleaning out each month to propel you along on your journey, your life path. The Sagittarius Full Moon could direct you to balance big picture perspective with Gemini Sun information gathering. Good energy to let go too much mental focus, surrendering more to what calls you on your direct line to Spirit. In other words, are you thinking too much when feeling into your own personal guidance would be a more helpful way to go?
Mars. planet of action, is conjunct Chiron, the wounded healer at 15 degrees Aries. You might feel antsy and eager to move through old wounds and old stories of wounding to be free to move along. After a few weeks wrestling with some bronchial pneumonia (not COVID, but horrible nonetheless), days and nights of fever and generally feeling so vulnerable, I emerged from the ordeal with a huge release of many stories from the past. It was like a switch was flipped and I just let everything go. Immediately I felt a huge surge of power, like I had plugged myself in to some limitless source, no longer blocked by old hurts and disappointments – a profound power reclamation. In some deep and meaningful way I felt liberated from my own jail cell, the one I had created in my mind, the old familiar stories which no longer made any sense at all. This Full Moon could open that same release valve in you,. Invite it. Let it.
To be free is your birthright but you have to free yourself. No one can do it for you.
Support is available (Schedule your reading!) but the work is yours to do!
Mercury is finally moving direct but as things are in such a state of re-orienting and re-forming that it can feel like Mercury is endlessly retrograde. Slow down and take things at a pace that feels do-able for you.
Give yourself time to feel into the movement of your life. You are not the river. You are a leaf floating on the river. Go with the knowing of the river, the rhythm and flow of life ever unfolding.
Neptune makes a square to the Full Moon so confusion can be lit up and cleared by the light of the moon. Insist on clarity and bring the dreams and visions of Neptune in Pisces into something usable, something that makes sense for the next steps through the forest.
Are you listening to your guides, be they birds or flowers or friends or that deep, calm voice of peace that dwells in your innermost self? Tune in to your own truth and follow your personal guidance to clarity.
