It’s never useful to blame astrological events for our bad behavior. Hopefully astrology can help us to understand our behavior. Hopefully astrology can lend us a lens of compassion, understanding and clarity about why we do what we do when we do it.
By the time you read these words the trickster, the wordsmith, the unrelenting salesperson, the planet of communication will be stationing retrograde. From May 18th to June 11th we will be tried, tongue tied, and tempted to believe the fates are against us.
This new moon asks us to meditate on the obstacles at hand. Saturn brings obstacles, solidifies them, and sees their benefits. Sometimes we need to be held in place. Treadmills train us. Lifting the weighted objects in our path make us stronger. Having to sit and contemplate what we want and why we want it can make us wiser.
Integrate. It’s one of the most important things that we can do on the days following a full moon. It’s hard to incorporate lessons when we are rushing through them. This past Sunday’s full moon deserves that kind of respect.
It’s about reclaiming the rejected, understanding the power that gets locked up in our anger and honoring the intense creativity that is life.
This week is an activation of this realm of your life. There is a challenge here for you to face. Are you valuing what is worth valuing? Are your ambitions supporting your long-range happiness? Are you caught up in a moment of amnesia? Have you lost track of what you hold dear?
This is a dreamy, creative, poetic moon that is shedding its light to be renewed on Saturda when it conjuncts the sun. Honor it by making an interpretive dance out of your dreams, a thesis out of your fantasies and a mockery out of “reality”.
A rocking week greets us as we emerge from the last edition of eclipses. There is a great amount of potential to seize this week. There is no rest for the wild at heart.
Here we go. Round two. Batter up. Bases loaded. Blood moon. Pink Moon. Egg moon. Fish Moon. Full moon. Libra moon. This Saturday, April 4th will bring us a total lunar eclipse at 5:00 AM EST with the full moon peaking at 5:05 AM EST.
