FLUSHED : Pisces New Moon

Published: 26 Feb 2017

On New Moons release the past, any habits, conditioning, thoughts, beliefs that aren’t authentic or no longer serve you. At this time the Moon and Sun are united at the exact same degree in the sky, both their lights blocked from our sight, merging both conscious and unconscious aspects of our mind. Energy is bought into a contemplative and quiet mood. This makes rich soil for contacting your inner/higher self, planning and setting foundations for your path.
Write down what you are releasing, then burn them as you visualize and feel yourself let go with love and gratitude for how they have served you up until now.

New Moons are about Manifesting, so next plant the seeds of intention you want to sew, then water them with action. Write up to 10 intentions or affirmations to bring into your life over the next six months, by the Full Moon in PISCES. This is when the Sun & Moon are opposite each other at their extreme ends of mutual polarity.

Focus on areas and approaches that PISCES rules, such as:

Spiritual connection
Transcendence
Arts
Unconditional love/ non-judgment
Ultra-fine sensitivity
Beyond the material world
Mystic
Inner vision
Crown Chakra
Glamour
Illusion
Delusion
Addiction
Victim/martyr
Chaos

Eg;
“I easily find myself replacing fantasy with constructive action to bring about what I want in my life”.
“I easily find myself embracing chaos in a way that brings about peace of mind and serenity”.
“I easily experience the connection and bliss of universal love”.
“I easily embrace and express my spiritual side”.
“I am easily highly attuned while remaining grounded and centered”.
“I easily hear and trust my inner guidance/intuition”.
“I easily face reality with vision and clarity, knowing my inner voice is always correct”.

This New Moon is conjunct the South Node, along with a Solar eclipse. The south node is our karmic past, a place we tend to wallow as its familiar, yet so overdone it’s overripe, tending to lead to bellyache. The antidote is to take those gifts, in this case, Piscean in nature, and apply Virgo organization, precision and practical application to engage the North Node. The north node is a direction we are meant to develop, which has been underdone, therefore is an unfamiliar territory and a road we tend to resist (because it’s so unfamiliar). However, it tends to get us where we need to go.
The south node in Pisces shadow side, all the traits no longer serving you, are ready to be flushed. Time to clean your fish tank, wipe your windscreen and reset your consciousness.

Addictions, dependencies, apathy, escapism, excuses, victim mentality or martyrdom…Personally, I’m feeling the apathy and just want to sit in forest rock pools and meditate! It’s time to acknowledge truths, without judgment so we can accept, release and move forward.

What has made your fish tank cloudy? And what can you do to clean it up?
What is your most potent goal? Ok, so draw up a list or reverse engineer what you can do to make it happen/move closer to it. Some of the same old excuses coming up as to why this can’t happen? Thank the fearful part of yourself, give yourself love and acceptance or whatever it is you feel you lack and want from something/someone else, step aside and continue.

Make a plan, a timetable, a start and finish date.
We all know what it is that really makes us sing, what we’d rather be doing. Make like a Virgo and chunk it down. Hire a virtual assistant to help you or get a coach to keep you on track. Make yourself accountable. In the west, most of us have little to no excuse and everything to gain.

Mercury is conjunct the New Moon as well, with a solar eclipse impacting this New Moon phase I would read that as primarily resetting your perceptions. Mercury in Pisces is super impressionable. It’s fine tuned to the subtle. Reset your thinking by hitching it closer to your intuitive insights. Remember ‘first thought, best thought’. Catch yourself second-guessing and step back to the original thought, this is often gleaned from your subconscious awareness, which is waaaay ahead of the perceptive abilities of conscious awareness.

Happy New Moon,

RISE & SHINE ⭐️ Full Moon LEO

Published: 10 Feb 2017

“Let it all be animal, my life and death, hard and fast like that, anything but human…a lot I care, me with my red heart in the dark Earth and my tattooed feet following the animal ways.” Vali Myers

The Full Moon brings to the surface our instinctual, emotional truth…like sea life drawn to the surface of the water by lunar light.
Look for the fruition of seeds planted 6 months ago on the LEO New Moon. What were you dreaming of, or planning for then? What is your harvest looking like now?

Refresh your memory, here’s the last New Moon LEO Post…

Leo Rules:

Creative Self Expression
Leadership
Bear Hugs
Drama
Solar Plexus

This Full Moon is accompanied by a lunar eclipse as well as a harmonious aspect pattern involving stabilizing and long-range Saturn as well as Uranus bringing in new and exciting change. Don’t let the opportunity slip by! The eclipsed full Moon brings up matters of the heart that need shifting. What do you need to let go of in order to step into some big love and leadership?

How can you tap into leadership from your center that inspires those around you or the collective (polarity with Sun opposite in Aquarius).

Rather than respond to external stimulus i.e media attempts at manipulating your perceptions into constricting emotions, ie fear, distrust, separatism, survival mode…ie, don’t buy into drama…Lead from your center (google ‘locus of control’). Imagine a web of people operating from their own centers, connected to each other from their source. That would make a strong fabric of society, and one much more pleasant to be a part of. This is an expression of balancing the polarities of Leo and Aquarius.

Can you step into your creative role in service that’s both life-sustaining in a luxurious manner Leo loves as well to those that require your creative services rendered? Both sides need equal measure so make a commitment now not to shortchange either yourself or your clients.

“If your actions create a legacy that inspires others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, then you are an excellent leader” Dolly Parton

For those who’ve struggled to unleash their inner creative beasts, this is the time to set your wheels in motion. This moon is so stable and its cheering you on, no judgment! You know what you’d love to do, let’s do it! Leo is a fire sign and fire needs to make its self-known, so Dance, paint, mosaics, illustration, ceramics, murals, design, whats your avenue of choice?

Leo is an interpersonal sign and one of big love. Time to love yourself and with equal measure to bestow the energy of that love on those who surround you.
Leo can be animalistic and experiential (appreciate with bear hugs and applause), while the polarity of Aquarius is detached, conceptual and literary.

My commitment this Full Moon is to delete words from my vocabulary that limit, constrict and minimize as the larger and warmer I allow myself to shine the greater the benefit to others.

Have you noticed women are generally socialized in a self-minimizing way ( I’m no exception)?. Words, tone, images, body language, facial expression, convey so much. Let’s be mindful of what we’re saying with all those tools of communication and express our selves in the best possible light. The words I’m letting go of are ‘just’, ‘try’ and ‘please’. How will you be turning up the heat?

The world is a large stage, this life is big enough for you to give it an academy award winning performance, so give it!

Express yourself don’t repress yourself beloved,

LOVE IN : Full Moon Pisces+Eclipse ’16

Published: 16 Sep 2016

The Full Moon brings to the surface our instinctual, emotional truth…like sea life drawn to the surface of the water by lunar light.

Look for the fruition of seeds planted 6 months ago on the PISCES New Moon. What were you dreaming of, or planning for then? What is your harvest looking like now?

For your revision, this was the post for the New Moon in PISCES…
Total Eclipse of the Heart : New Moon Pisces+Eclipse | ASTRO ALL-STARZ
Total Eclipse of the Heart : New Moon Pisces+Eclipse

This Moon Features an eclipse, which tends to come in cycles. Think back to what was happening around Sept 1997 for more clues on current circumstance. For me, I had begun my first-year of formal studies in fashion design and absolutely eclipsed it. So I am looking partly at the directions that creative part of me needs to be tracking on now.

What were you doing then that was stand out at the time or an incredible struggle? How are you tracking with that in your life? Does it need re-visiting, re-invigorating, re-invention? Think deep soul expressive urges and inclinations that perhaps you need to use your own steam to breath new life into. Consider the big questions like ‘what is my purpose’, and remember ‘first answer, best answer’.

At Full Moons, the polarity of the opposite sign, in this case, the Sun in Virgo, comes into play.
We need to balance the Sun, the Ego principle (left brain functioning), which is our interface with this material world, with our emotional and instinctual, less rational side (right brain functioning).
Experience doesn’t have to make sense to be meaningful, as long as it’s meaningful and heartfelt for you personally.

Balance your discriminating, organizing of the material world with cosmic, non-material awareness. Float in the void, if you will. Tune into all that exists beyond the physical external, see a movie, float in the sea, paint or listen to music to bliss out. True rewards and accomplishments are found at a center point, encompassing the entire spectrum so balance the polarity and you’ll strike a workable harmony.

This Moon is conjunct Chiron which tells us there is some emotional healing and or wounding at play. Perhaps some wounds or wounding situation has reappeared in order to be soothed and healed. This is a GREAT time to see a healer that you intuitively know is right for you. Yes, you read that correctly, ‘intuitively’, work that gut instinct as well as notice your subtle awareness of synchronicity. Someone knows a great healer, you feel intrigued? Make an appointment if it ‘feels’ right. Give it a go, like everything this way of maneuvering in the world only gets better with practice.
Mars in Sagittarius is in a tense aspect so you’ll know it when you feel it. Sagittarius Mars impatiently, impulsively, rashly pushes for us to find meaning and expansion in our lives. Research, get educated or just get energetic to burn off some emotional steam.

Sagittarius is a fire sign and wants to DO EVERYTHING and do it yesterday, the tension here is that you have to FEEL it as well as take action ..which can take time. Slow down or you may burn yourself, have an accident or say something you really will wish you hadn’t.

Notice your responses to outer stimuli, then notice what your perception is that generates pain, then your response. If you get in on that loop consciously you’ll be headed in the right direction. Once in, take a step back into observer mode. Open it up. Get creative here, what other new angles can you see this situation from? And what other new modes of response could you be generating?

The past is always on a feedback loop in your brain and it demands healing as well as truth. Patterns that are uncomfortable will continually rise up to ensnare us until we start to recognize that we can step out and choose a new way to view them and identify less with them. Take the bird’s eye view, connect out with the greater larger mass of souls and allow love to emerge ahead of other more constrictive emotional options. Applying the feeling of

Love generally feels warm and expansive to most people. To tap in, think of something that makes you feel that love connection, then apply it to this moment. Allow it to take center stage in your body and awareness, you’ll find it dissolves all boundaries, borders, and obstacles.

-For inspirational planning here’s a post I wrote for the last Leo Full Moon

Focus on areas and approaches that LEO rules, such as:

Love & Romance
Creative Self Expression
Ego
Generosity
Celebration, Fun & Entertainment
Dignity
Determination
Tempering Arrogance
Dramatic Expression/The Grande Statement
V.I.P’s/Celebrity
Leadership
Your Inner Child
The Solar Plexus
Gold!

Eg;

I am worthy
I attract & experience healthy, happy love relationship.
I easily create & experience a feeling of true romance, love & play in my relationship with……
I easily find myself engaging in the dating scene in a way that’s successful & pleasurable for me.
I easily find myself stepping up & taking the center stage.
I easily find myself following the path that’s dictated by my own sense of inner joy & happiness.
I successfully fulfil my true hearts desires with passion, joy & determination.
I easily allow the radiance of my inner being to shine openly.
I’m truly self confident in every area of my life.
I easily find myself taking the right actions that cause me to be recognised in a positive way.
I easily express my creativity.
I easily find myself open to and experiencing the pleasure available in my daily life.

The place/’house’ in our natal chart ruled by Leo is the area of our lives where we need creative self expression as well as recognition and often show leadership qualities. This is where we tend to express our inner child as well as connect with others on that level in mutual appreciation, admiration and validation.

Eg if you have Leo ruling the 10th house of career and public image, you would need to be recognised on a personal level for your creative contribution. You would also tend to be viewed as a leader as well as rather glamorous, if not a party animal! On the 4th house of home and family of Origin you would love living in large palatial digs. You’d also rule the roost. Property and development would be a lucky sector for you to be involved in.

A roll call of Hollywoods who’s who would reveal a strong representation of Leo Suns, Leo Risings and Leo on the midheaven/10th house of career.

For example;

Madonna
Charlize Theron
Jennifer Lopez
Chris Hemsworth
Robert DeNiro
Arnold Schwarzenegger
Robert Redford

Make like your favourite V.I.P. And get your razzle dazzle on. What are the qualities you admire most in them? Time to OWN IT. Where do you exhibit those qualities in your life already?
This is a great time for a makeover if you’ve outgrown your look or need some dusting off. Start planning now so you have your look red carpet ready by the Full Moon in Leo. Think WOW factor.

Unleash your creativity, you only live once after all!

Regardless of your current station in life, there’s every reason to let your inner radiance shine forth. As famous Moon in Leo, Paris Hilton once advised, walk into the room like you’re an heiress. That kind of self confidence comes only from within, from the navel chakra, from the simple yet profound knowledge that you’re truly WORTHY. Self belief is like a golden warm hearth, it warms everyone in the room and attracts the same warmth back.

Because you’re worth it,
Love & Golden Light

MOON in LEO : It’s my PARTY

Published: 30 Nov 2015

Mood:

Extravagant

Ego-centric

Confident

Dramatic
When the Moon is in dramatic Leo the mood tends toward feeling very subjective, like it’s all about YOU. Which it is… right?!
This is a GREAT time to hold an EVENT. It’s guaranteed to be a success with everyone having a great time and you coming off as the perfect host leaving ’em wanting more.
Have fun, express yourself, think about what really supports your joy in life, and which is really the most flattering filter for you ; )

Seriously, if you don’t present yourself in the best possible light, then who will? So go for it.
