There’s a lot of action going on around this Full Moon as
the energy culminates. In the lead up to the Full Moon Venus the planet of
love, money and diplomacy has been making the rounds connecting with the big
boys, Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto. This combination
encompasses diplomacy, foreigners, power and control. The headlines reflect this as a foreign Prime
Minister Netanyahu addresses Congress with the warning that agreements with
Iran are dangerous and those talks in question resuming the very next day. There’s a bid for power going on here,
internally as well as internationally.
What about the power struggles in your own personal relationships? Has
Venus done her job? It is for sure that with Uranus and Pluto involved anything
goes.
If relationships are rocky as the Moon sails into Libra on
Friday evening, March 6th, the energy become more congenial as Libra
Moon favors all kinds of relationships.
Folks want to get along under this Moon, to connect and socialize. With Moon here over the weekend it is a great
time for parties, a get together or a simple conversation to clear the air.
That’s the thing about relationships, when the parties involved get over
emotional they often forget that a simple conversation can chill things out and
move the relationship along. When you do this, I feel that. Simple.
If Venus has gifted you with smooth sailing don’t become
complacent as Mars takes the reins as the Moon begins to wane moving into the
Last Quarter phase on March 13th
On Tuesday the 10th with Moon in intensely emotional
Scorpio Mars makes a sweet aspect to Jupiter.
They are both in fire signs, Aries and Leo respectively and while Mars
lights the fire Jupiter ensures that it becomes a conflagration. Mars in Aries is the master at confrontation.
The next day, Wednesday, he joins forces with anything goes Uranus and the
powerful transformer Pluto. War, strife, the unusual coupled with the desire to
be free and unfettered create a volatile mixture. Explosive is a keyword here.
That evening the Moon moves into fiery Sagittarius bringing
a desire for movement and a change of scenery.
Sagittarius Moon can bring an open mind or the opposite, a proselytizing,
closed minded fanatic. Generally folks are warm, friendly and enthusiastic
under this Moon and are curious to see how the other guy lives.
As we get closer to the Last Quarter on Friday Mercury
enters Pisces and throws logic out the window.
Mercury in Pisces learns by osmosis. While you are sure that you see the
truth in a situation often Mercury in Pisces places the rose colored glasses on
your reasoning abilities. Good for meditation and inward contemplation. Listen to music, watch a beautiful sunset or
engage in activities that connect you to your own spirituality. You can go to
church and light a candle, say a prayer or sit on a park bench and enjoy the
beauty around you. With Mercury in
Pisces you see it or sense it all around you.
The Last Quarter Moon brings a lot of action leading up to
it and following it. If you have learned anything from the last New Moon to the
Full Moon now is the time to share that learning and spread the information
around. Moon in Sagittarius at this Last
Quarter favors the teacher. We all have knowledge this is the time to spread
that knowledge.
On Saturday the 14th of March Moon moves into
practical Capricorn. People what some
respect for their talents, for a job well done and for the efforts they apply
to their responsibilities. This Moon is
a good time to tackle the tasks at hand.
It’s a double Capricorn day as the ruler of this Moon, Saturn changes
direction in Sagittarius going retrograde until August. Saturn is the planet of
limitation as well as manifestation.
Saturn is all about the real world, the material world and what we have
to do in order to survive in this world. He’s not a fun guy but he will reward
you when you take care of business in a timely manner. Saturn says, “You don’t
get brownie points for doing what you are supposed to do.” But in the long run, heading out to the job
every day, paying the mortgage and living a healthy lifestyle brings the
rewards that you have earned. So this is a good weekend to take of those tasks
that are necessary to keep life running smoothly.
On Monday the 16th Mercury in Pisces squares off
with Saturn in Sagittarius. Mercury in
Pisces is the dreamer and visionary.
Saturn deals with cold reality. A
square is an aspect of agitation and irritation. This aspect can push the dreamer into
manifesting the dream into reality. A
good time to write down those ideas, make plans to implement the dream or to
take some action in the real world that moves your dream along.
The big aspect of the day, the month or the year even
occurs on this day as well Uranus and Pluto make their 7th and final
square aspect on Monday night. The first
of the 7 occurred on June 24, 2012. On
this date the square became exact but Uranus and Pluto had been in range for
many years. This is a 126 year cycle and this current aspect ushered in the
financial crisis and the major unrest felt around the world. Although this is the last in this series they
will be in range for another year or so.
We are not out of the woods yet.
When these two get together they bring about broad societal
changes. In the early 1930’s they were
in the closing square aspect. In the mid
1960’s they were in conjunction. Both these periods ushered in major
changes.
For some folks this series of squares has ushered in major
life changes of a very personal nature while others have experienced changes
due to the business, political or social climate. No matter how you look at it, it is all
personal. The Cardinal signs of Aries,
Cancer, Libra and Capricorn have felt these aspects strongly while the rest of
us have felt it on some level or another.
Stress and tension ushers in change and while the change may be needed
and result in a positive outcome it can be a difficult adjustment.
During this week before the next New Moon the Moon is in
the Balsamic phase. This is the Crone’s
Moon. She reminds us that change is constant.
This time as the Moon slowly disappears from the sky is the time to
dream, to let go of the old and be ready to prepare for the new at the next New
Moon. Meditate and let your ideas
incubate. Be patient and take the time
to assimilate what you have learned and be ready to take your next steps after
the New Moon of the 20th.
