Theme: Full Moon and Full Heart

The exact full Moon happens early in the day. We will be energized, but will have to contend with conflicts between home and professional life, conscious and unconscious desires, and our minds and our feelings. Later in the day the Moon is conjunct Jupiter which puts us in a generous state of mind. This also supports spiritual interest and insights at an experiential level. Public speaking should go well today.

If we really knew the truth of suffering, there would not be one moment that we did not practice with the utmost compassion. ~Jetsunma Ahkon Norbu Lhamo

Theme: Ambition and Security

There is a lot of ambition in the air, as Mercury joins the stellium of Sun, Venus and Mars in the sign of Capricorn for the next 2 1/2 weeks. What do we want to start building this new year? We should be mindful of the extra physical energy that we have for the next couple of weeks. Don’t let your temper flare up because you have been too sedentary. The Moon enters Cancer in the morning, and remains for the next few days. We are drawn towards family and security.

To seek solitude like a wild animal. That is my only ambition. ~H H the Dalai Lama

The Moon is void of course today from 7:25 am until 8:10 am EST. Do not make any major decisions during this time period.

Theme: Concentration and Balance

The astrological chart for the coming year is focused on achieving balance in the elements and harmonious relationships through tapping more deeply into generosity. It’s also a time of inner union of yin and yang. Focus and fortitude are important qualities with the preponderance of planets in Capricorn. It’s also important to spend time on establishing firm foundations before building your dream. With Saturn and Neptune still in conjunction at the commencement of the year it’s important to focus equally on spiritual health and understanding cause and effect in whatever tasks you undertake. The Moon in Gemini presages the importance of communications in all forms – and is square the nodes (bringing unconscious motivations to the surface) and trine the ascendant – aiding focus. Expansion on the home front is also a theme this year.

Life is a balance of holding on and letting go.~ Rumi

Theme: Flexibility

Surprises have mostly passed for the the moment (The Moon has moved past Uranus). Now you can recover and move on – until the next surprise! Dealing with sudden change is even more reason to develop flexibility. The Moon moves into Gemini today bringing with it the breeze of conversation, short trips and encounters with siblings. The preponderance of planets in Capricorn creates a good environment for planning ahead for long-term goals by building on solid foundations.

Theme: Finding Balance

With Mars and Venus poised on either side of the Sun in Capricorn it’s an opportunity to find purposeful balance in your life between action/life directions and making meaningful connections that deepen relationships. The Moon in Taurus continues to provide stability although it is moving towards Uranus later in the day bringing surprises: flexibility remains the key. With the Dark Moon close to Mercury, be particularly mindful of speech and what you are seeking to communicate today.

Happiness is not a matter of intensity but of balance, order, rhythm, and harmony. – Thomas Merton

Theme: Seeking Security

The Moon in Taurus invites consideration of the practical steps needed to create peace, abundance and security. Like all earth signs, there is a logic to achieving these outcomes. Similarly the placement of three planets in another earth sign, Capricorn, also focuses attention on the practical steps needed to accomplish one’s purpose (Sun), achieve goals (Mars) and make commitments in relationship (Venus). While Jupiter remains squared with Chiron, facing painful memories can be liberating and ultimately the getting of wisdom.

Wisdom is oftimes nearer when we stoop Than when we soar.~ William Wordsworth

The Moon is Void of Course in Aries until 6.57am today. Avoid signing contracts during this period. Find gentle, restorative and reflective time.

Theme: Do You Know What Gets My Goat?

Today there is a close stellium in Capricorn and those born with that sign sometimes feel that they deserve better than they get. In this case it is strong, ambitious energy that rules the day. The Sun, Venus and Mars are involved. Venus is the gentlest of the group, but is not so happy in Capricorn. Mercury is still in Sagittarius so we are better with the big picture than with details. And the Moon continues in Aries. Look before you leap.

Love is not love, without a violin playing goat. ~Julia Roberts

The Moon is void of course from 9:14 pm until 6:58 am EST the next day. Do not make any big decisions during this time period.

Theme: Persistence pays off

With three planets in Capricorn including the Sun fortitude and perseverance are stronger at this time. So harness the purposeful nature of these qualities for good. The Moon is in Pisces and also conjunct Saturn-Neptune warming the emotional temperature but also illuminating the challenges of juggling both restrictions and lack of restrictions, and focused activity versus making space for imagination, relaxing the mind and spiritual insights.

Just remember, you can do anything you set your mind to, but it takes action, perseverance, and facing your fears.~ Gillian Anderson

Theme: Commitment

Venus has moved into Capricorn emphasizing commitment and integrity in relationships that honors your inner truth. Venus in Capricorn also emphasizes boundaries and structure in relationships. The Moon moves into Pisces today slowing down the pace of daily life and bringing attention to more subtle emotions and feelings.

Theme: Finding Wisdom

The Moon is conjunct the asteroid Pallas-Athena bringing a connection between feeling and strategic thinking, helping you to traverse complex emotional situations. The Sun is moving closer to Mars – physical exercise is a helpful outlet for this high-energy pairing; and keep including people in your plans if you want their support. Chiron remains exactly square Jupiter forcing you to face painful memories, your fears, truly heal and, in that journey, find wisdom.

Force without wisdom falls of its own weight.~ Horace

The Moon is Void of Course in Aquarius from 6.53pm until 8.08pm the next day EST USA. Avoid major contractual undertakings. Take time to enjoy quiet spaces and find the same within.
