This powerful Full Moon in Sagittarius, June 16/17th is really the illuminator and magic maker of  “New Dreams” .  This lunar cycle presents a dynamic opportunity to take a real look at these ideas, thoughts and experiences that  have come forth during the New Moon in Gemini.

What thoughts and dreams have been moving back and forward through your mind?  Do you have the courage to claim your freedom to do it "your way"?

With this Full Moon conjunct Jupiter, the planet of expansion, there’s a conversation that is happening somewhere in your “Star Map”.  Sagittarius is the sign of fiery and inspired direction.

This sign brings a feeling of joy and adventure when you choose confidence, courage, and deep self-belief.  Taking the chance to step out of the past, with “Lucky” Jupiter as your  guide, will shift your life toward fortune and a new horizon..

During this Full Moon you're gaining an energetic boost, and  being called to take action on something you’ve dreamed about during the Gemini idea generating stage.  With the Full Moon illuminating the pathway, and Jupiter calling for expansion in a particular area of your life, it's time to activate and actualize the dream.

With this Sagittarius energy, you have the deep support to step fully into taking your intention, desire or dream and manifest your vision into form. What's important, is to belief in what you are choosing to be, do, and have as you move forward in your life.

While I'm writing this blog,  I’m also appreciating having taken action on creating an online group for members of my community.  For months, I've been going around and around in my mind. 

Pondering  a bunch of ideas is what the Gemini energy does well. Finally though, this week I could feel the Sagittarius needle on the compass pointing toward action. Lo and behold  formation of the group really has happened.  

So here it is Full Moon in Sagittarius, and all the planetary players are whispering that it’s time for things to change  The combination of the Sun, Moon and Jupiter is release and expansion  which equals----change.

Of course, I want to give recognition to the powerful “T” square of Neptune in Pisces with the Sun, Moon and Jupiter.  If you think about this symbol in terms of (air, Gemini idea, water, Pisces feeling sensation, with fire action new direction, Sagittarius) how these elements affect each other through the experience of energetic tension.

In fact, this is the nature of the astrological square aspect. In our charts, the movement of the planets through the signs, form certain energy patterns. The tension aspect formed by squares has to be resolved.

So it’s not only time to dream, the question is, how will your dream become your new "You"? How can you  move  life in the direction you really want to go?

Using the cycles of Astrology can really give you clarity and direction on what is important for ease, success, positive and soulfully abundant living.  Learn how to use your own unique "Star Map".  soulsoundinsights.teachable.com/

Wishing You Big  Magical  Full Moon Joy,

Ruth 

For a greater part of this month, there's been a lot of talk about this second sighting of the Libra Full Moon.  The first Full Moon sat at 0 degrees, and this one is at 29 degrees.

The initial zero degree position called for us to recognize what parts of our lives have needed big attention.  There has been a question of clarity about life relationships of all kinds.   Even as an astrologer, I have perceived the sign of Libra to be mild mannered and having an almost disappearing presence. In fact, Libra has appeared to be the emotional pushover of the zodiac, along with the stereotyped Pisces.

But,  I've taken another look and feel toward Libra.  Today, on April 19, with this 29th degree position, I see Libra in a new light.  With this final degree, and the rarity of this cosmic movement,  Libra is offering and revealing a major life lesson.  This is the end of the road for many relationships and connections that have not embraced the "Libran Way", of peace, love and harmony. 

Wherever Libra is positioned in your astrology chart, is where something is finished. It's over!

Today Libra has taken on some of that Aries energy, and is not taking anymore "stuff" from anyone.  The Full Moon Libra proclamation: "look everybody, I attempted to make things right with you,  but you didn't care about being together.  I'm done now.  So long and goodbye".

" This is the end of the road for all the chances given, but not claimed with an open heart". 

Libra guided/ruled by Venus, has given an abundance of chances to be in loving connection.  Libra is the sign that's always attempting to find a balance with the other person.

But with the last degree of the sign, as it moves through this Full Moon phase, Libra is proclaiming that there are no more chances.  The proverbial "party's over".

The action of resolving, releasing, relinquishing and reharmonizing life patterns of how we make relationship connections, which give us inner self awareness, balance and deepening wisdom, is the overarching theme of this lunar cycle.

When I sat to write this blog,  I knew that it would be short.  This Full Moon in Libra, in it's  last degree doesn't seem to lend itself to a lot of words. Today's Moon is to the point.

                                                   "Trust today and move forward".

May You Find What is Yours On The New Road.

Always Yours in Moon Magic,

Ruth

Part Two

Whew! What a powerful shift of energy that occurred yesterday with the Moon and Sun sitting opposite one another.  From years of observation, when Scorpio comes on the scene, there's always a powerful energy shift. The Full Moon in Taurus, carries a message of understanding what is really valuable, harmonious, peaceful, and loving.

Scorpio is the sign that requires a clearing away of the layers of toxic feelings, beliefs, attitudes and behaviors.  With  this Full Moon, the lunar light helps us to see the falseness of the inner subconscious programs which dictate a steady stream of deadening life experiences.

The gifts from Scorpio require each of us to do the inner soul work to become  emotionally, psychologically and spiritually whole. Scorpio is about excavating to find the most powerful, creative, and wise and magnificent self.

Yesterday was no exception, Sun in Scorpio rolled in with the  announcement.  "Whatever has no real meaning,  soul, and life value, will be exposed to the light and will be disintegrated".

Here's a brief example of how Scorpio operates.  Yesterday, a Scorpio Sun sign friend related this incident.  A neighbor that she hasn't known for long shared some classic Scorpio themes. My friend was made privvy to some deep secrets. The neighbor told of being  involved in schemes about hidden money from dubious sources such as drug dealing and violent criminal behavior. Eventually the person would be incarcerated. This  is also a 12th house, Pisces theme, "confinement" situations.. 

It appears now, the neighbor, has re-evaluated and re-valued his life.  He's now revealing the other side of Scorpio, of death, dying to the old life, and being transformed. The person with the secrets has been able to turn his life around by doing productive service kind of work, and apparently also has found some peace of mind by sharing his story.

So we have  retrograde Venus in Scorpio reinforcing, and asking  all of us to  be open to the emotional, psychic, wise and soul connection of   reclaiming inner wholeness.  Everyone has a treasure chest of inner beauty, value and magnificent worth. Claiming this treasure is the key.

Scorpio represents the cycle of death, transformation and rebirth. From the depths of inner wisdom and healing, we each have the ability to experience renewed inner worth  joyfulness, radiant health, creative expression, abundance, and soul purpose.

When we put Venus with Scorpio, we come face to face with learning to  embrace our vulnerabilities, through loving emotional connections with self and others. On a deeper level, every person desires emotional wholeness, authentic closeness, and intimacy.

Are these attributes easy to realize?  Only when we seek  to trust the deepest, wisest and most soul-filled parts of self.
