Capricorn Moon 11/4/2016

Capricorn is a Cardinal Earth sign.  Cardinal signs are the enthusiastic initiators of action in the Zodiac, which includes Cancer, Libra, Aries and Capricorn.

There are five planets in Cardinal signs today:  Jupiter in Libra, Uranus in Aries, as well as Moon, Pluto and Mars in Capricorn.

Uranus is square Mars and could indicate extreme rebelliousness, sudden aggression or a competition of strong-willed individuals.

We also have Pluto square to Jupiter.  This is a ruthless energy, which could challenge belief systems.  It could also be expressed as a tremendous desire to succeed, bulldozing past any obstacles.  Sound familiar?

“Make no little plans, they have no magic to stir men’s blood.”  ~D. B. Hudson

Full Moon in Libra, March 23, 2016

he Full Moon in Libra just happened - it was exact at 7:01 am CT. A Full Moon means that the Moon and Sun are opposite to each other. The Moon in Libra (relationship) and Sun in Aries (self) represents our connections to ourself and to others.

You may feel this Full Moon more than others do if you have planets at about 3 degrees in Libra, Aries, Capricorn or Cancer.

Consult an astrologer like me if you want to know more about how this or any other New or Full Moon (and more) affects you personally.

Leo New Moon on July 26, 2014

On Saturday July 26th at 5:42 pm CT, we have a New Moon with the Moon and Sun in the early degrees of Leo. Jupiter is also in early Leo, bringing an expansion of this warm, generous and dramatic Leo energy. Remember that this is a great time to set an intention, but be sure to do it within 48 hours!

Get outdoors this weekend and surround yourself with people you love. Go on a picnic, explore the zoo with children or go boating.

Jupiter is in tense aspect to Mars at this Full Moon, bringing to mind the possibility of aggression/fights/disagreements among those in close relationship.

Again, as we have seen most of the Summer, there is an abundance of Cardinal energy: Pluto and Uranus continue their journey through Capricorn and Aries (yep, Cardinal). To add to this, Venus and Mercury are now well into Cancer (Cardinal) - a security-driven, emotionally tender sign.

Capricorn Full Moon July 12, 2014

On Saturday, July 12^th at 6:25 am CT there will be a Capricorn Full Moon.  This melding of Cardinal energies (Water and Earth) results in mud!  Astrology is often delightful in the images it brings to mind.  Truly though, this is wonderful energy to make excellent progress on projects you may have neglected.

Once again, all of the Cardinal energies and signs are invoked in this Full Moon.  Mars (Libra) is square to the Sun (Cancer) and Moon (Capricorn) and Pluto (Capricorn) is square to Uranus (Aries).  If that isn’t enough, Uranus is also squaring the Sun & Moon.

The energy to get things started is truly there this Summer.  The tension is present (see the paragraph above) and Cardinal energy is at hand.

4th of July weekend

There is a lot of “let’s do it” and “do it now’ energy present with Pluto opposite the Sun and square Uranus.  Those of us in the USA are getting ready for 4^th of July and a three-day-weekend, which can be exhilarating, and for some, overwhelming.

You may be planning to get together with friends, or with family.  That too can be attached to anticipation or dread.

Let go.  Let go of all expectations.  Think positively and have no goals.

The Sun is in nurturing Cancer – the mother energy.  Let the Sun nurture and feed your spirit.

The Moon is in Virgo – may good health and vitality be yours.  Eat well this weekend.  Take in food that will nourish your body.  You will feel much better for it, emotionally and physically.

Enjoy the long weekend!

Cancer, Leo and Virgo – the signs of Summer!

 I have a contest for a free reading on July 1st – read through to the end for the exciting details!

Cancer ushers in Summer.  Cancer is a Cardinal Water sign. 

You may know that each season starts with a Cardinal sign:  Aries in Spring, Cancer in Summer, Libra in Fall and Capricorn in Winter. 

Each of these signs has a different element of operation.  For Cancer, it is Water.  Water signs are emotional and psychic.

Cancer began on June 21st with an Aries Moon – two Cardinal signs (Water & Fire, respectively) working together. 

Got a job to do, a project to complete, a mission?  This is the time to Redesign, Rework, Reinforce, Revisit the unfinished, while Mercury is still Retrograde. Cardinal signs are wonderful energies to work with in order to get it done.

On June 27th at 3:09 a.m. CDT, there is a New Moon in Cancer.  The Sun & Moon are both in Cancer.   This day will likely see assertion of the individual (Mars opposite Uranus) and you may either find yourself wearing rose-colored glasses when it comes to romance (Neptune square Venus) or you could find a well of creative inspiration.

There is a wealth of Cardinal energy involved in this Cancer New Moon.  Pluto (Capricorn) is opposite the Sun & Moon (Cancer), square to Mars (Libra) and square to Uranus (Aries.)  With all four Cardinal signs present, the energies of Water, Fire, Earth and Air are all involved.

Make it a point to set an intention at the New Moon, and do it within 48 hours.  Watch the cycle from the New Moon to the next New Moon to see how your intention manifests.
