Cosmic Weather:

“I thank God for my failures. Maybe not at the time but after some reflection. I never feel like a failure just because something I tried failed.” – Dolly Parton

This second Saturday in June we are gifted with a Last Quarter Moon in contemplative Pisces (3:31 pm), which means that Luna is halfway between the last Full Moon and upcoming New Moon. The LQM is perceived to be an optimum time to retrieve the trusty scorecard, from out of our back packet, and evaluate our most recent spate of hits or misses, with an eye to moving on from what is deemed no longer achievable or practical. Likewise, this lunar phase is also regarded as an ideal period for looking ahead and crafting our intentions or goals for the next New Moon (which will be occurring in Gemini on June 18th).

Meanwhile, Luna in Pisces also suggests leaning more into our intuition now, or cranking up the volume on what our inner voice may be saying to us.

“Intuition is like reading a word without having to spell it out. A child can’t do that because it has had so little experience. A grown-up person knows the word because they’ve seen it often before.” – Agatha Christie

*All times EDT

On This Day in History: On June 10, 1935, Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) was founded in Akron, Ohio by Bill Wilson and Robert Smith (known as Dr. Bob).  The organization, which is now worldwide, was created to help people struggling with alcoholism and to provide them a safe space to share their experiences and support each other.

Astrologically, that day, Saturn, often billed as “the taskmaster,” which teaches us the power of self-reliance and self-discipline, was in compassionate Pisces and applying (one-degree) to an exact opposition to Neptune in health-oriented Virgo; Neptune also signifies, among other things, drugs, alcohol, and addiction issues.

Oppositions tend to deliver results or may bring matters to a climax or culmination. Ideally, Saturn opposing Neptune serves to supply us with more determination or resolve to face down our fears or weaknesses; it may also usher in a greater reliance or receptivity to the idea of a higher power helping to see us through our difficulties.

Also, on that date, communicator Mercury was in sympathetic Cancer and exactly sextile to innovative, group-oriented Uranus in grounded Taurus, an aspect which can help to foster new insights or facilitate new approaches.

“We are not cured of alcoholism. What we have is a daily reprieve contingent on the maintenance of our spiritual condition. Every day is a day when we must carry the vision of God’s will into all of our daily activities.” – Bill Wilson

Hope it’s a good one! Please be safe and well.

Astrology December 28, 2012: Full Moon in Cancer

“What can you do to promote world peace? Go home and love your family.” Mother Teresa

COSMIC WATCH:

The last Full Moon of the year is occurring today in the sign of “nesting” Cancer, at 7 degrees (5:21 am EST), putting a spotlight on home, family, and security concerns. With this Full Moon, we also have the chance to gain greater awareness of how our personal life (Cancer) impacts our professional life (Sun in Capricorn), and vice versa. We are also ideally seeking to achieve more of a harmonious balance now between these two realms. Something that is often quite challenging for us to do.

Too, with Full Moons signifying a time of release, it is likely that certain elements will need to exit our lives now in order to obtain what we want for ourselves. Additionally, this “phasing out” period may be even more noteworthy now, as this Full Moon opposes “purging” Pluto and squares radical, “change-agent” Uranus. Plus, we are at the end of another calendar year and are likely much more eager to want to put the past behind us now, so we can start out fresh in the new year.

Moon-Pluto can provide us with greater resolve to face or tackle some of our darker or more serious issues, the ones that we maybe have been avoiding for a while because we were perhaps fearful or unsure of how to deal with them. In some cases, too, we may be forced to deal with certain issues now whether we want to or not. Both Pluto and Uranus have been known to add a certain urgency to our affairs, especially if we have been resistant to dealing with things in the past.

Also, this lunation trines “responsible” Saturn and “wounded healer” Chiron, suggesting that we do have two old masters by our side to guide us now. Moon-Saturn particularly summoning up our own mature judgment and wisdom, culled from our unique blend of life experiences. Moon-Saturn can make us very resourceful and resilient in the face of whatever life happens to serve up on our plate. “Turn your wounds into wisdom.” Oprah Winfrey

What is your “inner wisdom” telling you to do now?

Full Moon in Cancer activities: remodeling or improving the homestead; purchasing or selling real estate; having an open house; spending time with family members; nurturing the more vulnerable; pampering and self-care; being around water; volunteering in a soup kitchen; helping the homeless; experimenting with new recipes; dining out in restaurants; grocery-shopping; shopping for antiques; purchasing tableware; buying home furnishings and accessories; investigating our genealogy; taking measures that add to our feeling of security or well-being.

Famous Birthdays December 28: Denzel Washington, Gayle King.

“You pray for rain, you gotta deal with the mud too. That’s part of it.” Denzel Washington

Full Moon Blessings to you!

Astrology April 28, 2010: Scorpio Full Moon, Saturn-Uranus Opposition

“Tell me what you feel in your room when the full moon is shining in upon you and your lamp is dying out, and I will tell you how old you are, and I shall know if you are happy.” Henri Frederic Amiel

Cosmic Watch:

As the Moon becomes full in mysterious Scorpio (8:19 am EDT) we’re given a special invite by Pluto in Capricorn to potentially scale deeper with our self-awareness, including gaining insights into our inner emotional landscapes and feelings. We may become more cognizant of our basic core inklings and receive testament on what provokes or prods our passions.

Some possible questions to ponder now: What is our heart’s truest desire? What do we most covet? What is it that arouses our anger? What are we most fearful of losing? What is blocking us and holding us back? 

Today’s lunation is occurring at 8 degrees of Scorpio and forms a T-Square to Mars in Leo and the Sun and Mercury Retrograde in Taurus.

Scorpio energy is typically perceived to be intensely emotional and self-examining, providing us with opportunity for clarity and redemptive purging. We balance this out with the opposing, more placid Taurus energy, which is very grounding and helps us to manifest our intentions.

This Full Moon is an excellent time for clearing and renewing ourselves, as the fixed Taurus, Leo, and Scorpio energy is concentrated and purposeful, allowing us to accomplish whatever we set out to do.

While there is always some resistance to change with the fixed signs, the energy now is much more malleable due to the powerful healing and rejuvenating aspects from Pluto to the Sun, Mercury and the Moon.

We also still have the exact opposition from Saturn in Virgo to Uranus in Pisces, which depicts a tug of war between the old and the new.  This Scorpio Full Moon beneficially assists us in our quest to move forward (Uranus) while pitching outworn elements of the past (Saturn).

“March on.  Do not tarry. To go forward is to move toward perfection. March on, and fear not the thorns, or the sharp stones on life’s path.”   Kahlil Gibran

Happy Full Moon Blessings!
