The final full moon
of 2016, falls at 22'25 Gemini and re-enacts the Sun-Saturn
conjunction which was exact on Saturday and would have been notable
for a few days prior.
The weekend had a
more sombre cast for those with a strong Sagittarius / Gemini
influence in their charts, and a more grounding affect on many of us
overall. When the Sun links up with Saturn a more practical,
functioned, and work oriented approach will take precedence. On the
other hand, for those who find this kind of down to earth approach
less comfortable, a desire to escape any of the realities or confines
of day to day life may become the focus.
It's all down to how
oppressive the Saturn energy is in your life right now. Do you feel
that you have stability and trust in the future? If so this full
moon will be a great time to crystalise and look at how you would
like to live 2017.
Perhaps there is
more turmoil in your midst and this full moon is going to bring up
some of the pain, fear, and worry that needs to be healed in you?
Whenever Saturn is in the mix, you can be sure that life will be
based almost entirely in the 'real world'. Even if you are prone to
day dreaming and living in a more creative head space, this will be a
less effective mechanism during the Sun-Saturn conjunction.
Jupiter has been in
Libra now since August and has reached past halfway, ready to turn
back at the beginning of February and brings its positive vibrations
through the sign in reverse order, all over again. Libras born up
unto around 16th October, will have had a dose of uplift
from the planet of luck, exploration and manifestation and will
re-live this opportunity in the coming months. Traditional horoscope
writers who note that since this is the 7th House (of
relationships / partnership) for Aries, that they would be likely to
have had or be about to experience very harmonious personal
relationships at this point. Whilst a real astrological reading is
based upon the exact time and date (and location) of birth, Jupiter
in the opposite sign is not one to overlook. In fact no matter your
sign, whichever area of your chart houses Jupiter, will be the area
in which success, happiness and even prosperity is more available to
you at this time.
I mention Jupiter in
such detail, as he is slowing down over the next few weeks, preparing
to begin the backwards (retrograde) journey and can now finally imbue
us with the joy that the Saturn-Neptune emphasis of 2016 so far has
assuaged. This is the time the believe in your dreams and start to
make waves in the direction you wish. Fortuitously the timing aligns
well with mental preparation for the new year, which despite being an
entirely man-made concept, is embedded into our psyches enough for
use to use it to create meaningful 'new start'. There will be a new
moon shortly before the new year but this 2 week cycle from full moon
to new moon is an opportunity for us to dig deep, and acknowledge
what it is in our lives we wish to embrace and that which we know we
need to change. Perhaps entirely!
Mercury and Pluto
linking up in Capricorn this week, give us the focus and depth to
really search our wants, needs and motivations at this time. The
year that has passed has been a tumultuous one for many and has taken
us on a ride of twists, turns, and treacherous insights into the
darker sides of human nature. It would be unrealistic not to note
the disappointment that many of us have felt at the behaviours,
choices and priorities which have made it seem that judgement and
separation are more prevalent in people, than love and connectedness.
I'm aware that it's an unhappy heart which chooses power / anger /
control / destruction over love and therefore the only answer is to
melt the cold hearts, and bring back the desire to trust, empathise
and reach out to one another.
Live by example,
live your truth. Jupiter is all about the earthly truths, and in the
most appeasing and balanced sign of Libra, we are given the chance to
take a look at our surroundings and try to truly understand the needs
and vulnerabilities of those around us.
We're all doing the
best we can after all and we all stumble around tripping up from time
to time.
With Chiron in
Pisces at a square to the full moon position and Sun-Saturn at this
time soul searching will be a painful process. I know that avoidance
is often the choice when the depths of despair lurk below the
surface, but once the murky waters are freed, they flow away forever.
There never is a good reason to carry old hurts, or issues. Life
can be very beautiful with no baggage or expectations. The lesson of
Chiron is in learning to speak the unspoken, connect on the level
that only humans can. Chiron is named 'the wounded healer' with the
symbol of a key. It stands for all the pains that we accumulate from
childhood, that are related to the human condition. Interestingly,
as Chiron's most functional sign is the communication sign; Gemini
(where it is 'exalted') the best way to deal with these pains is to
share them, discuss them, face the fear of judgement and repulsion
and own them. These are the pains that animals don't have, as they
don't clutter their minds with language and expectations. In turn
this is where the purity of animals can be the greatest inspiration.
Hence, if you are unable to connect to people when Chiron is in the
mix, taking time to be with animals will undoubtedly be a very
healing experience.
Peace and love to
all~~~
