Have you been feeling exhausted and unfocused? Mars retro in Gemini is squaring off with Neptune in Pisces, especially in this week leading up to the New Moon.  It could well be triggering placements in your chart.  The key is to integrate and transform this energies  – see below.  The really good news?  The eclipse season is finally over with this New Moon!

.

The New Moon in Sagittarius on Thurs 24 Nov 2022 is an opportunity to begin a new cycle in your life that’s adventurous, enthusiastically exploring new frontiers, feeling the need to enjoy life to the full.  This is a perfect time to start on a spiritual quest, a course of study or overseas travel – anything that expands your horizons. The travel can of course be internal – a spiritual journey, to the truth of who you are.
 .
Sagittarius is a Fire sign, warm and enthusiastic, naturally optimistic and with an undying trust in the Universe.  Sagittarians love to explore and go on adventures, not just for the fun of it, but because they’re also motivated by a quest to discover the Meaning of Life.
.
Their sign is ruled by Jupiter, stationing direct at this New Moon and in a supportive aspect to the New Moon, which increases the trademark Sagittarian boundless enthusiasm and confidence.  On the downside (every sign has its downside), Sagittarians can have a tendency to go over the top, take lots of risks through being over-confident, and can over-extend themselves, not knowing when or where to stop.
 .
Find where this New Moon falls in your chart at 1 degree Sagittarius and tune into the new departure that could be starting for you now.  The house placement will show you which part of your life is most affected.
.
If you have a planet at 1 degree of Sagittarius, this marks the beginning of a new cycle in whatever that planet symbolises (eg relationships for Venus).
.
If your birthday is close to this New Moon (within a day either side), this marks the beginning of a significant new cycle in your life in terms of your identity and your sense of purpose.
.
Set your New Moon intentions within 24 hours of the New Moon, exact at 8.57am AEST (Queensland time).

On the very same day as the New Moon, Jupiter goes direct at 28 degrees Pisces, indicating that the restraint and apparent lack of progress of recent months should now be resolved (although the current Mars-Neptune square is complicating things).  Renewed hope and optimism should begin to emerge now – however things may not progress as quickly as you’d like, because we’re still under the influence of Mars retro.  As Jupiter turns direct, reviews of injustice and other legal matters that have been ongoing for a while are likely to be brought to resolution.

At a personal level, if you have been questioning your beliefs or dealing with issues of faith or trust over the last four months, Jupiter’s direct motion is likely to bring resolution and more clarity.

Jupiter returns to Aries on 21 Dec.

Total Lunar Eclipse Blood Moon – Full Moon in Taurus 2022

November 2, 2022 by

Total Lunar Eclipse Blood Moon – Full Moon in Taurus 2022

,
Blood Moon

The Full Moon in Taurus on Tues 8 November is a total lunar eclipse, amping up the energy of this Full Moon.  Full Moons tend to bring situations to a head and a total lunar eclipse really adds to the intensity of whatever’s happening.

This total lunar eclipse will be visible as a Blood Moon on the east coast of Australia, starting with the partial eclipse phase at 7.09pm AEST (add an hour to these times if you’re on daylight savings).  The Full Blood Moon Eclipse is from 8.16pm-9.41pm AEST, with the maximum eclipse at 8.59pm AEST.  After the total Blood Moon phase, it moves once more through partial eclipse before the Full Moon becomes visible again after 10.49pm AEST.

lunar eclipseIf you’re in New Zealand, Japan or the west cost of Canada, you’ll get a stunning view of the entire Blood Moon eclipse, including the penumbral (half-shadow) stages before and after the partial eclipse stages.

At the collective level, the eclipsed Full Moon in Taurus asks that we bring our attention to Mother Earth, that we honour our role as her guardians and the caretakers of our beautiful planet. This is a cosmic invitation to create a new path forwards, taking conscious action to insist that governments, multinational corporations – and even individuals – stop abusing their power and stop abusing the planet.

Mercury and Uranus are strongly configured here, so this lunar eclipse could well bring some surprising or even shocking news to light. Keep an eye on the international news around this time!

As the eclipses continue to move through the signs of Taurus and Scorpio, our challenge is to let go of outdated exploitative business models that ravage the Earth, and create a path which honours the Earth and all forms of life here.

At a personal level, this eclipsed Full Moon in Taurus brings into focus your ability to be sensuous and grounded and is an excellent time to indulge the senses and pamper the body.This Full Moon invites you to find a balance between the physical sensuality of Taurus and the emotional depth of Scorpio, great if everything is open in your relationship, but if there are underlying issues around jealousy or possessiveness, this Lunar eclipse could bring the situation to a head with some emotional drama playing out!

Check your birth chart to see which house is under the spotlight at 16 degrees Taurus as this is the area of life where matters may come to fruition or be revealed, intensified by the eclipse.

This eclipsed Full Moon is exact at 9.02pm AEST (Queensland time).
 .

Take care during this eclipse season!
