Today's Full Moon is a Rare One! 🌕♊
During Virgo Season, you may be thinking about taking action to maintain a healthy constitution (Mind-Body-Spirit).
On the other hand, the Pisces polarity point reminds us that, ultimately, we have to surrender all matters to Divine — including whether or not we'll get to die with all our teeth or a robust retirement! 🤨
Take it easy these next few days under this potent energy. Remember to dream big without forgetting that our dreams can only take form when we harness the qualities of earth energy: determination, hard work and responsibility (to name a very few). 🗻
A Special Mercury Retrograde Issue 📧 🐒
Welcome to the Mercury retrograde (Rx) edition of AstroLogical! This email is JAM PACKED with everything you need to know about Mercury's retrograde through the heavens, including more than one free gift to help you navigate the moment. 🙌
Mercury turns retrograde today at 12.59pm PT and ends September 15 — you'll want to watch out for the Comic Trickster's zany antics!
On a spiritual level, he's come to remind you of a Divine Paradox: While everything outside of you is a reflection of what's on the inside ... you still ain't got no control over life. 🤔😖
Huh?
Ya. Scratching your head and muttering to yourself is basically Mercury retrograde in a nutshell. (Think Native American coyote medicine.) It's hard to grasp and even harder to explain.
It's Time To Kickstart Your Courage ⚔️
The Sun and Venus in Leo had a very potent meeting this past weekend — no doubt you felt it! And now we're in the final week of Leo Season, which ends with a bang!
🧡🦁Today, we've got a New Moon in Leo. You'll recall that a New Moon happens with the Moon joins the Sun in the heavens. (More on that in a bit.)
I've been noticing a theme arising for my clients this Leo Season that I can definitely see mirrored in my own experience: FEAR and COURAGE.
Leo is the archetype of courage. It's the brave and loyal heart that loves passionately. 🔥
I just LOVE that courage exists on the same spectrum as fear. You can't have courage where fear isn't also present!
It's easy to overlook fear when focusing on someone's heroism, right? I mean, fear definitely has a repellent vibration, whether we're conscious of it or not.
💜 What's at the heart of the matter?
Thankfully, Venus isn't just causing us to ask, "What do I want," but also providing the answer. While occupying the sign of Leo, she's helping us get to the heart of matters.
That's why I've got only one inquiry for you this week.
Bring to mind the situation that is creating the most agitation in your life. Once you can feel it clearly in your body and see it in your mind's eye, ask you HEART:
💜 What is at the heart of this matter?
Still Unsure Of Your Purpose? 🤔
Leo reminds us that the one thing all humans have in common is a shared desire for our lives to have purpose; to contribute something meaningful to the world; to love and be loved.
This sign represents your heart's desire to be uniquely YOU by pursuing and birthing a special passion or purpose. 💥
Often, we're been so conditioned to move away from our heart's calling that we become hesitant or even afraid to really hear what it's saying.
Then, the guidance we receive from our hearts may seem less like an obtainable reality and more like a secret fantasy or an outlandish dream.
Can you hear yourself in any of these desires I've heard clients reveal?
I want to be a ...
🚨 The "Season of the Ex" Has Arrived!
Welcome to Leo Season! The Sun moved into the sign of the Lion this past Saturday evening, Pacific Time.
Like all the signs, Leo represents hundreds of different archetypes that we'll experience throughout our lives. 🦁
But none is as important as the heart. Listening to the heart, following the heart's direction and creating from the heart are a few ways this dynamic energy wishes to express itself.
That's why Leo also represents our physical heart and heart health. You can expect that heart ailments may be the body's way of turning your attention back to the muscle that keeps us loving and creating, as well as living! 💜
No doubt I grabbed your attention with my sassy subject line! Yes, Venus is also now officially retrograde as of Saturday night — in the sign of Leo.
While I maybe lured you in with a promise for ROMANCE — Venus and Leo's domains — it's important to remember that our first relationship is always with the SELF.
Aries Energy Is BACK! 💥
On Monday at 1pm PT, the Destiny Point moved into the sign of Aries! This is one of the six big events of 2023. (And if you made it to the Music From The Cosmos event then you got to hear me talk about it in detail!) 🔥
For the next 18 months, we will be collectively moving toward embodying the Aries archetype, which has a deep and unabashed instinct to express itself without restraint.
We are now being called to befriend the Ram in an effort to further our Soul's evolutionary intentions. 🙌
Powerful New Moon Insights From A Double Cancer: A Guest Post
Patrick's story beautifully illustrates Cancer energy at its most effective. He also is triple water with both his Sun and Moon in Cancer. Not surprisingly, he had this experience just after yesterday's New Moon in Cancer opposing Pluto in Capricorn (transformation through self-responsibility).
Monday's Another Big Day!
We're now in the final 10 days of Cancer Season and we're gearing up for more pivotal shifts next week (more about that below).
I created a video for you with my fabulous friend, Julie Mallari, so that you can make the most of the prevailing energies. It's all about Cancer Season and the importance of nurturing.
🙌 It will help you adjust to and integrate the forthcoming cycle, too.
Is It Time To Call Your Mama?
We're still in Cancer Season and Cancer is ruled by the Moon — one of our "Big 3" (Sun, Moon and rising sign).
The Moon is a super crucial element of each person's unique astrology, especially as it relates to early childhood, intimate relationship dynamics and nurturing (including how you nurture yourself and others).
I have a nifty and simple "Moon Sign and Relationships" guide that can help you navigate the current moment, as well as help you understand yourself and loved ones better, too.
This Week's Full Moon Vibes
This week, we have a double-dose of Capricorn energy because we've got a Full Moon in the sign of the goat on Monday, July 3 at 4.38am PT.
Although this lunation happens in the wee hours of the morning, you can expect to be feeling the vibe all day Sunday and Monday.
Do You Know What Today Is? ☀️
Today at 7.57am PT, the Sun moves into the sign of the crab, marking the summer solstice! 🦀
Western astrology follows the procession of the equinoxes, so the changing of the seasons are potent days when we begin new energetic cycles that are reflected in nature and our personal lives.
What bounty do you wish to harvest as we begin the long, warm days of summer? 🍓
All Solutions Are Spiritual 🦋
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get down with the cosmic cycles and truly take advantage of what Pluto has been offering us, both collectively and personally.
Does Your Mind Reign Supreme? 👑
"Gawd! I should have listened to my intuition!" Such moments remind us that we don't have to think our way through life. The mind isn't the only mode of internal communication that can guide us.
Ready For Friday's Fiery Full Moon?🌕♐
Saturday night's Full Moon in fiery Sag is going to bring the heat again. Thankfully, the influx of energy this weekend will definitely put some wind in our sails.
Calling All Social Butterflies!🦋♊
The Sun moved into this friendly air sign just after midnight on Sunday morning. That's because this energy LOVES to talk, learn something new and then talk some more.
This Hasn't Happened Since 2011! 😱
It's always an auspicious time when Lord Jupiter changes signs, because he's the guru of the zodiac, delivering Truth and good fortune.
The Gift of Solitude
Taurus loves the quiet contemplation that Solitude offers — especially if found in nature or while attuning to Mama Earth.
An Auspicious Eclipse?
This one will be a Full Moon in Scorpio, the sign that exemplifies intensity. 🦂
