The Harvest Moon 2019!

Full moon cycle today, 10/14/19, until 10/18/19 is the time to receive illumination and feedback from the cosmos about the Libra ( relationship and balance) part of your chart. It’s not time to begin anew, but rather reflect within.

THIS full moon, the harvest moon, is at 20 degrees of Aries, the sabian symbol of the `boxer who enters the ring.’ The gift of the full moon cycle is objectivity. Observe where in your life you are `fired up’ and ready to `fight’ for whatever makes you feel alive! Seeing yourself reflected by the light of others is both enlightening…and a little intimidating. Know that you also serve as a mirror for your loved ones. Be gentle with your `feedback’ so that your words aren’t interpreted as criticism.

The full moon degree EXACTLY squares the power principal of Pluto. Squares are tension producing angles. Pluto rules which `lies’ beneath. If there are secrets afloat which need purging, then this is the cycle when the truth is ripped wide open.

On a lighter note, the full moon EXACTLY trines Jupiter, Mr. Jolly! Humor, irony and the theater of the absurd spontaneously percolates. All we need to do is sit back and watch the drama unfold around us. At the same time Jupiter rules `excess’ and exaggeration. As I write this, this headline interrupted my writing: “ Trump strongly condemns parody The president has yet to watch the graphically violent video depicting a likeness of him attacking opponents.”

In your personal life keep the jovial spirit of Jupiter alive so you don’t collapse into the trap of the mars ruled full moon of endless bickering and `fighting like a boxer!’

A positive practice of any full moon cycle is to do mirror work. Literally look into the mirror and communicate your truth to yourself. Throw in some positive feedback for good measure. If you can’t love and appreciate `you’ then who will?

The next moon phase falls on Friday October 18th at 10:14 pm EDT, the disseminating cycle of communication and analysis. The moon will be at the 25th degree of Gemini, ‘ winter frost in the wood.’ Some of the passion and drama experienced over the next few days will be on frozen pause for next weekend; a welcome relief!

 

Full Moon Cycle – Oct 27, 2015

Full Moon Cycle started today Tuesday(!) AT 8:05 am when the moon/sun opposition was at 4 degrees: Taurus Moon/ Sun Scorpio. Sabian symbol wisdom blends` the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow’ with that of the ‘Youth holding a lighted candle in a devotional ritual. ‘Let’s do a little exploration with the images, Yes? Both images refer to `light’; a rainbow displays the light spectrum, the primary colors, the chakra colors… A rainbow is the bridge between heaven & earth....not a bridge of `matter’ but of light. The most recent societal association of `rainbow’ is that of sexual inclusivity in marriage. At the same time…when we light a candle as a gesture of devotion we are focusing our awareness and intention on something greater. In essence we are building a `bridge’ to the divine, inviting the numinous to be with us. Lighting candles within churches have long been an exercise in prayerful supplication. candle-dark

Perhaps… this full moon is presenting us with an opportunity to connect with the `light’ of spirit.

pot-goldPerhaps it’s asking us to find the `pot of gold’ …(which of course isn’t `material riches’) but spiritual treasures at the end of the elusive rainbow.Perhaps we should focus our intent to connect with the God of our understanding by indeed lighting a candle. Allow the flame to be a sign of the divine spark within…stretching upward outward & beyond. The third image of course is the LUMINOSITY of the FULL MOON. Let it light the way to Divine Grace!
