Secrets come to light at Full Moon in Scorpio 2024?

 

Full Moon clouds

The Full Moon on Wed 24 April (AEST) brings the six-week eclipse season to a close.

Falling in Scorpio, it’s likely to be a very emotional time when deep and passionate feelings are revealed. This Scorpio Full Moon brings a strong possibility of secret or intensely private matters coming to light, possibly with a sexual content or maybe concerning financial matters (or even both!).

Full Moons tend to bring situations to a head, with feelings running high, a strong emotional charge, and tense situations reaching a climax – amped up by being in Scorpio.

Check your chart to see which house is under the spotlight!

The Full Moon is at 4 degrees Scorpio and is exact at 9.48am Queensland time (AEST).  The best time to celebrate the Full Moon will be the previous evening while the energy is building.

The Jupiter-Uranus conjunction 2024

April 12, 2024 by

The Jupiter-Uranus conjunction 2024

 Jupiter-Uranus

The year’s major alignment, the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction, is exact on Sun 21 April at 21 degrees Taurus.  Unlike many planetary conjunctions which are extended by their retrograde motion around each other, we’ll only be receiving one contact of this particular conjunction.

The Jupiter-Uranus conjunction represents revolutionary energy which comes with increased awareness and radical changes.  Jupiter is associated with legal, moral, and ethical concerns, while Uranus is revolutionary energy, breaking free and raising our awareness.

The Jupiter-Uranus cycle is 14 years, and it can have quite a destabilizing effect as the new changes take hold, both intellectually and materially.

This Jupiter-Uranus conjunction falls in Taurus, an Earth sign associated with farming, food production, the environment, as well as banking and finance.  We can expect to see major shake-ups and changes in all of these areas and I discussed this in some detail in the Winds of Change webinar.

An exciting synchronicity is that the Bitcoin halving is taking place around the time of this conjunction – meaning this could be the watershed time that brings crypto into much more mainstream acceptance, something we’re already starting to see as institutional investors are now getting involved.

We’re also likely to see increased use of blockchain technology (Uranus) in many different areas of commerce as it creates a supply chain record that is transparent and cannot be tampered with.  It also plays into the Pluto in Aquarius transition where power can no longer be held by a small group but becomes decentralized.   Again, I discussed this at some length in the Winds of Change webinar if you’d like to know more.

A few places and people in the spotlight affected by this Jupiter-Uranus conjunction – not that we don’t already know this, but it’s interesting what the astrology confirms:

  • Israel’s Sun is at 23 Taurus – we can expect to see some massive shake-ups there
  • The British Royal Family all have chart points at 21-24 Taurus (and fixed signs generally) – they’re really going through a massive destabilization right now with Charles’ and Kate’s illnesses and the republican movement growing.
  • The UK generally is also picking up on the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction – the 1066 chart for the crowning of William I, and the UK House of Commons chart are both activated by the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction (see Nick Campion’s Book of World Horoscopes).  Expect some serious disruption there!!!

Total Solar Eclipse New Moon in Aries 2024

April 4, 2024 by

Total Solar Eclipse New Moon in Aries 2024

 

eclipseTues 9 April 2024 at 4.20am AEST at 19 Aries

(total solar eclipse exact at 4.17am AEST, duration 4 min 28 sec)

 

Total Solar Eclipse conjunct Chiron

The New Moon in Aries on Tues 9 April (Qld time, the previous day in Europe and the Americas) is a TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE, visible over North America.  A New Moon always represents the beginning of a new cycle, and when it’s eclipsed, it’s a highly significant new beginning.

The path of this total solar eclipse falls across the eastern half of North America – and in fact, as I discussed in the Winds of Change webinar, it crosses the path of the solar eclipse of Oct 2023 which fell across the western half of the US. Their paths cross over Texas, which strongly suggests that Texas could be a particular hot-spot for significant changes!  Take a look at the Nasa graphics here: https://science.nasa.gov/eclipses/

This total eclipse falls at 19 degrees Aries, with totality lasting for 4 mins 28 secs – that’s a long eclipse, intensifying the effects still further, even if the eclipse is not visible where you are.  Mark this spot in your birth chart to see where changes and new beginnings are likely in your life.

Chiron is exactly conjunct this eclipse, indicating the enormous potential for healing that exists now, the beginning of a really significant new cycle.  The archetype of Chiron is the Wounded Healer, and in order for healing to take place, the original wound has to be reopened, cleansed and cauterised, a painful yet necessary pre-requisite for the subsequent healing.  Chiron has been in Aries since 2018 and I wrote then this could well manifest as healing the urges for aggression and violence. I was thinking at the time of domestic violence and femicide, but of course this aggression can also apply to conflicts and wars – Mars, the ruler of Aries, was after all the God of War.  Let’s hope that this Chiron conjunction with the eclipse can start a new cycle in healing and bring peace to all conflict zones.

The eclipses are linked to the Moon’s Nodes, and as this a North Node eclipse, we need to focus on developing positive Aries traits – taking action, being able to challenge and confront where necessary, moving away from endless debate that results in fence-sitting (South Node in Libra).

If your birthday falls close to this date (within a day either side), this is the beginning of a really significant new cycle in your life, particularly with regard to your sense of identity and purpose in life. The influence of Chiron means that this could be a significant new cycle in your own healing, or perhaps you’re at the stage where you can now bring healing energy to others.
 
The solar eclipse falls on Tues 9 April 2024 (AEST) at 19 Aries.  The eclipse is exact at 4.17am, the New Moon is exact at 4.20am – that’s Queensland time, AEST.

Your New Moon manifestations will be especially powerful on account of the eclipse.  Set your intentions within 24 hours of the New Moon.

And remember, take extra care during the eclipse season!!!

Mercury goes retrograde April 2024

March 31, 2024 by

Mercury goes retrograde April 2024

 

mercury_retroSIGN

Mercury goes retro  Tues 2 April 2024 at 8.14am Qld time (AEST) at 27 Aries

Mercury goes direct  Thurs 25 April 2024 at 10.54pm Qld time (AEST) at 15 Aries

.

*

.

Mercury goes retrograde on Tues 2 April 2024 for 3 weeks. Make sure you finish up projects and back up all your files at least a week before then!!!

Mercury retro brings the potential for confusion, mistakes and delays. Double-check appointments and flight times, make sure you have your keys with you when you leave the house, and check that messages have actually got through OK. Be prepared to be patient when things don’t go according to plan! Take a book with you to the airport and be prepared for delays.

This is not a good time to make any major purchases or sign contracts, unless you’re prepared to revise your plans – or take purchases back to the shop – down the track. If you can’t get out of signing a contract, make sure you read the fine print very, very carefully.

The upside of Mercury retro is that it’s a great time to sort out your files and reorganize so you can be more streamlined.

Mercury is retro for 3 weeks until 25 April 2024

Lunar Eclipse Full Moon in Libra 2024

March 18, 2024 by

Lunar Eclipse Full Moon in Libra 2024

.

penumbral lunar eclipse

The Full Moon in Libra on Mon 25 March is a Lunar Eclipse, intensifying the energies of this Full Moon.

The Full Moon will only darken slightly during this eclipse as it moves into the half-shadow of the Earth, because this is a penumbral eclipse (penumbra means half-shadow).

The eclipsed Full Moon in Libra gives us an opportunity to bring our lives into balance, revisiting the cosmic invitation extended by the Equinox a few days earlier.  It highlights our need to relate to others, yet it also emphasizes the need to find a balance between our own needs and the needs of another, between the need for independence and the need for compromise.

The Full Moon falls at 5 degrees Libra.  Check the houses of your chart to see which part of your life is under the spotlight.

The Full Moon is exact at 5.00pm Queensland time AEST on Mon 25 March.

This Full Moon is the last Full Moon before Easter, known as the Lenten Moon, because it falls during the Christian fasting period known as Lent.

*

Easter Sunday this year falls on Sun 31 March.  ‘What’s this got to do with Astrology?’ I hear you ask … Well, guess what?  The date of Easter is determined astrologically, by the Moon and the Equinox.  Easter Sunday is set as the first Sunday after the first Full Moon following the Equinox.  This is why the date of Easter changes each year, sometimes falling at the end of March and sometimes much later in April.  Astrology is present in our everyday lives much more than most people realize!

Aries Equinox 2024 – where do you need more balance in your life?

March 13, 2024 by

Aries Equinox 2024 – where do you need more balance in your life?

.
Celtic eight-fold year

The Aries Equinox falls on Wed 20 March (AEST), as the Sun moves out of dreamy Pisces and into action-oriented Aries. 

The Equinox marks the change of the seasons, the time of year when day and night are of equal length and the seasons come to a point of balance (equi-nox is Latin for ‘equal night’).  It might nor feel like it, but we’re half-way between summer and winter!

This is a perfect time to explore what might be out of balance in your own life and find a way to restore that balance, whether it’s in your relationships, your work-family balance, or any other part of your life.

If you like placing sticks in the ground and playing with shadows – and sundials – the Equinox is the day of the year when, wherever you are in the world, the Sun rises due east.  The Sun is directly overhead at the Equator at this time – something that happens twice a year in March and September.  It is this astronomical phenomenon that defines the beginning of Aries in the Tropical Zodiac.

The Equinox is exact at 1.06pm Queensland time (AEST).

March Lunar Phases & Moon Planting Guide ☘️🍃🎋

We’re moving into a time of heightened energy with this New Moon as it begins the six-week eclipse season, with the first eclipse being the Lunar Eclipse at the next Full Moon.  The energies are starting to ramp up! Spare a thought or prayer for the people in Gaza – I was horrified to read that the date of this New Moon (which is also the start of Ramadan) was the deadline Israel had set for their ground invasion of Rafah.  As if the energies weren’t intense enough already!!!  The situation is appalling and so heart-breaking.

Remember – take extra care during the eclipse season as the energies are pretty intense, it’s a time that calls for heightened awareness, especially as you go about your daily life.

.

12Pisces glassThe New Moon in Pisces on Sun 10 March brings the opportunity for a renewed focus on spirituality and the desire to transcend our 3D reality. Pisces has a strong sense of divine homesickness, a spiritual longing to return to source and merge into oneness. This New Moon is a great time to begin a new cycle of spiritual practices!

Pisces is also associated with imagination and creativity. This is an excellent time to begin a new cycle of creative pursuits, such as art, photography or music, essentially anything that takes you into that right-brain space of timelessness!

Pisces is also highly idealistic, bringing more compassion into the world.  However its downside is illusion and deception, making us prone to being deceived (and deceiving ourselves!).  Be careful of falling under some kind of glamour (spell) under the influence of this New Moon, seeing the world through rose-coloured glasses!

This New Moon is a great opportunity to begin a new cycle with regard to any escapist tendencies that you’re aware of, including any form of addiction. The Piscean urge to transcend reality can express negatively as escapism which in its most extreme forms can develop into addictive patterns of behaviour. This is a great opportunity to focus on transforming these into more creative or spiritual pursuits.

Wherever you have 20 degrees of Pisces in your chart is the area of your life that will be affected by this New Moon – for example, if it falls in your 10th house, this signifies the beginning of a new cycle in your career or professional life.

If your birthday falls close to this date (within a day either side), this is the beginning of an important new cycle for you, especially with regard to your sense of identity and your purpose in life.

The New Moon is exact at 7.00pm Queensland time (AEST).  Remember to set your New Moon intentions within 24 hours of the New Moon.

This New Moon begins the six-week eclipse season: the two weeks leading up to the Lunar Eclipse on 25 March (see below), the two weeks between the two eclipses with the Total Solar Eclipse falling on 9 April (more on that next newsletter) and the two weeks leading out of the eclipses.  In this entire six-week period we need to pay extra attention and stay conscious, taking extra care as we go out about our daily lives.

Full Moon in Virgo 2024

February 19, 2024 by

Full Moon in Virgo 2024

 

The Full Moon falls in Virgo on Sat 24 Feb at 10.30pm AEST at 5 degrees of Virgo.

The Full Moon in Virgo brings into focus your need for order and purity. Virgo is a very analytical sign, and as an Earth sign it is analytical in a practical way, trying to improve situations (and even people!) in its search for perfection.

The Virgo Full Moon invites you to reconcile Virgo’s attention to detail with the holistic vision of Pisces, bringing into balance the microcosm (Virgo) and the macrocosm (Pisces).

Check your birth chart to see which house is under the spotlight at 5 degrees Virgo.

The Full Moon is exact at 10.30pm Queensland time (AEST).
