Moon in Aries/Taurus, Use up all that energy

We'll have the Moon in the fiery sign of Aries until 7:36pm tonight, which is perfect for getting through your day on high-octane. The Moon and Mars are both hooking up and both are in Aries, making this energy doubly potent. So if you want to start an exercise program outdoors, or just run around and get some errands done, this energy will be perfect for you. There is not much rest when we have the Aries energy, its all about getting things off the ground. And as we all know by now, this is the warrior sign, so we'll be extra courageous and assertive today. Today is all about embracing our yang (male) energy...don't be shy.

Moon in Aquarius, Free Your Mind...

And the rest will follow...remember that song!? I love it and it pretty much sums up the energy of Aquarius. Here we have the independent thinker, who needs to feel and roam free. The creative genius which represents the electric body, here not only for himself, but for humanity. This is the rebel of the zodiac, he does not see any rules or regulations, and because he doesn't see them...they don't exist. Today you will feel strongly about your personal space, and you won't want or let anyone invade it. We are inspired to be benevolent and help others. We appreciate our independence and need "me" time.

Triple Earth Energy, Moon in Capricorn

Perfect, I needed one more day of the focused, pragmatic Capricorn energy. I've gotten a whole lot of work done this week and it feels quite good! The moon remains in Capricorn until 8:58pm tonight, then we move into the energy of Aquarias at 10:01pm. Use the day to get organized and tidy up any loose ends which you started in the beginning of the week. The Sun (in Taurus), Moon (in Capricorn), and Mercury (in Taurus) are all in Earth signs, producing a solid ground under our feet and feeling connected to everything/one around us. When Mercury is in an earth sign your communication better have some substance, not that you can't be humorous, but it definitely doesn't allow for empty words.

Moon in Capricorn, Intensity

Today's Moon energy supports anything you put your mind to. In Capricorn the Moon is a bit uncomfortable as the Moon is ruler of our emotions and Capricorn doesn't allow their emotions to show, all the more getting pent up within and making the output of them very powerful...when they allow them to show. The energy leakage moves into anything else they set their heart on, i.e. work, art, sex, etc. this energy must find a way to expel itself. This is why this sign is so productive, the high levels of concentration that are available during a Capricorn phase are unparallel to none. If you want to get anything off the ground, today is perfect for it.

Now we have the Mercury Retrograde moving into Taurus. Since retrogrades make us extra sensitive and intuit everything around us, when in Taurus we will feel everything in our bodies. So having a gut feeling, will literally be having a gut feeling. Pay attention to your environment and what it is trying to tell you. Allow your-self to be open.

Moon in Sagittarius, Testing Your Patience

A little extra tender, love, and care is needed today. The jovial moon in Sag is also part of a tug-of-war between Saturn (in Virgo) and Mars (in Aries). This aspect doesn't give us much patience and we don't seem to care about that either. Lets not be impulsive today, I know it may be really difficult with the moon in Sag and Mars in Aries, but lets try. Remember, Mercury is retrograde, and asking us to slow down, but today's Moon coupled with Mars makes us want to just dive in; we'll deal with consequences later. Fire is all about expansion, taking everything that's in front of it with it. Let the earthy nature of Virgo calm this energy down today.

Full Moon in Scorpio, Process of Elimination

That's right, today is the full moon in Scorpio (5/9/09 at 12:01am). I know a lot of "stuff" was going on yesterday, but today is the day my friends. Now I know full moons tend to get a bad rap, or used for unruly behavior, but they actually serve a very important purpose: they bring things/situations to light. Now, notice the word "luna" - latin word for moon, now notice the word "lunatic" - being adversely affected by the moon. Now, there is a theory that full moon babies, when your Sun sign, i.e. Virgo, is directly opposite your moon sign, i.e. Pisces, feel this effect very intensely and therefore during full moons turn into werewolves, lol. Well, I'm kidding, but they sure act like it, I have a couple of them around me.

Now, today's full moon is in Scorpio. I love these full moons, because there is no reading between the lines. If full moons bring things to light, and the full moon is in Scorpio, what does that mean?? Hidden fears (Scorpio - ruler of the underworld) will come to light, and you'll have to deal with them. The Scorpio energy will not allow you to bring things up to the surface and just act like they never existed - no, no, no. You will bring these things up to the surface, from the underworld and you will shed light on them and understand them, which brings you into greater clarity and THEN you will excrete them from your system. You are transformed. Now, you understand why the full moon energy can be so restorative, it does what it needs to do - no judgements.

Getting In Touch With The Realness, Moon in Scorpio

Today our loving moon is void-of-course all morning, and then moves into the sign that brings us clarity - Scorpio. Libra, the sign before Scorpio brings us connection, but stays on the surface. In Scorpio we maintain that connection, but must go below the surface, the hidden recesses to see what its "all" about. The sign after Scorp is Sag and takes the knowledge of what Scorp has uncovered and puts all the pieces together and finds truth...so you see how it works. Each sign, beginning with Aries is a higher manifestation of the one it precedes. But you must think of the zodiac as a circle (circle of life), not linear.

Since Mercury is retrograde, we are more intuitive because we are being forced to go within. Now, couple this retrograde with today's moon energy and here we are being asked to pay attention to what is going on around us. You will pick-up on signs, you will see what's coming before it comes. You will feel the undercurrent of hidden motives...if there are any.
