Mon 09.11-Sun 09.17

Moon Week Taurus thru Leo

The week starts thick, gets quick and then finishes in the soup. We are still inside the eclipse cycle, which runs until the full moon the end of next week on the 22nd. If you haven't identified what needs to be tossed overboard spend some time early in the week looking over your life for the dangling person place or thing. It will avoid some depression on the weekend if you have taken a proactive approach.


Monday
Moon in Taurus

Next to Capricorn the lunar transit through Taurus is the best to survey down to the roots what your 'life garden' has to offer. We have the vision of things to the core, in areas that need change there is no doubt and the inclination to look away is there. If you use the focus, steady and unmoving, of Taurus those big changes don't seem daunting and in fact subtle actions or inactions make themselves apparent. Taurus allows us to see the small and step-by-step path we can walk to get where we want to be.

Tuesday
Moon Void of course 1:58pm PDT
Moon into GEMINI 1:59pm PDT
Mercury into LIBRA 1:59pm PDT

The moon slips into Gemini and Mercury into Libra, it gives us a drastically different feel then yesterday. There is a quickening, charging communication with electricity. It's important when the tongue is in babble mode to watch what we say, you'll have to back it up on the Cancer moon coming next. Under Gemini you can also hear from those in your life that are a bit reluctant to talk about issues. It's a sign to be a good communicator, that's listening as well as talking.

Mercury going into Libra gives us the rest of the month with the communication of diplomacy knob turned all the way up. In political realms it will be a lot of posturing and proposing, best to remember all the chafe we're going to be fed and sift for the few kernels of wheat that are in it. On a personal level it's an open window to reach out to that family member or co-worker in your life you have an impasse with. Now is a transit, especially here in the eclipse cycle to hear and say things to bring that relationship back to the present and move past the past.

Wednesday
Moon in GEMINI

What is that project that is languishing? Today is a great aspect for having that brainstorm. Set and setting are important. If it's a group project get out of the normal surroundings and fire up the brain machine, minds are lubricated. Take notes! Once the dam of brain freeze thaws it's a torrent and there are more than just ideas specific to the project, it's helpful to have the idea list to look over in a week or two. Now is the time to bite off a lot, and then chew carefully for the rest of the lunar cycle.

Thursday
Moon in Gemini
Moon square Sun GEMINI-VIRGO
Moon Void of Course 9:00am PDT
Moon into Cancer 7:35pm PDT

If you've been waiting to have that delicate conversation because you didn't know what to say today is the day. You'll have plenty to say. It's the beginning of the last quarter of the lunar cycle so it's going to be definitive be sure you're ready for the shift.

In the evening the Moon shifts into Cancer, now you have to walk all that talk you've been doing. All arrangements made, appointments and placements decided on should get a call back to see if it's still on. It's easy to set up the flake factor under the Gemini Moon and you can save some grief if you use the Cancer moon to see if it's nailed down. This now sets the tone for the darkest part of the lunar cycle, moving toward a new Moon that's a solar eclipse next week. Greet the shadow of the waning Moon with the light of awareness. Nothing is that scary if you get a good look at it.

Friday
Moon in Cancer
Mercury conjunct Mars LIBRA
Venus opposition Uranus VIRGO-PISCES

This could be a day when tears of joy and sadness mingle on the same cheek. Mercury and Mars meet in Libra so that tone of diplomacy gets some vibrancy. There is a call to action, so if you're the one approached by someone carrying the olive branch dig down and find some grace. Nothing feels better than an old grudge healed with all parties smiling, even if there are a few tears.

Venus moves opposite Uranus and gives the fresh and unseen to relationships. Using playfulness to offer a new take on relationships helps if you're the one being offered something entirely new. If you're the one with the 'crazy idea' staying light and realizing it's tougher for some people to change instantly, offered up as a lark, not a definitive. Uranus demands some shifting, it's going to happen and it's always more comfortable if you're riding the exuberance rather than resisting it.

Saturday
Moon in Cancer
Moon Void of Course 5:31pm PDT
Sun square Pluto VIRGO-SAG

The weekend is thick and soupy. We're in the waning moon cycle and under the Cancer moon emotions and feelings can well up in an instant. There is a positive to this; it's not hard to be in touch with your feelings. In fact it's impossible because they are reaching out to get in touch with you!

With the Sun square Pluto, which only happens twice a year we have a bit of impending doom looming over us. On a global look there could be harsh action to enforce diplomacy. Few of us have any control on that, in our lives we can use it to draw a firm line with ourselves, even in small areas, that we want change in. The Virgo Sun offers us the sense of the small and simple steps it's going to take. Jump on this energy before it jumps on you.

Sunday
Moon into LEO 5:15am PDT

We pull out of the soup in an instant. Look back to yesterday from your heart of today. What a change. Don't forget the trials of the end of the week, with this flush heart; full of potential, we can carry out what seemed like daunting tasks in an instant. The sense of confidence can descend in a flash. Pulling back to watch the pendulum of ourselves swing gives us the perspective on how our heart works, that no matter the astral winds we can greet it in the highest or lowest position with presence. That's all the heart asks and it's the only way to truly use and not be used by this part of our being.

KNOW YOUR CHART! Your Sun sign is just a tiny bit of everyone's astrology, you can get a free chart at astro.com and get to know where your moon, sun ect are. They also have a great legend of the symbols of the zodiac and very clear definition of basic terms. Plus we just think that Liz Greene is the dope as far as living astrology writers.
