Monday 6/20/16--Solstice full moon

Just as the Sun reaches the top of our seasonal roller coaster for the year, a peak of energized potential, the Moon, on its monthly cycle, is opposite, at the very bottom of things, a second Gemini/Sagittarius full moon ("blue moon"), at 4:02am PDT. Then they both shift, releasing a big wave of reinforced nature power across this planet.

Full Moon hits bottom, into grounding, constructive Capricorn, empowering primal needs, at 4:55am PDT. The Sun reaches Solstice, highest point in the sky, into Cancer, the release of flowing feeling, at 3:34pm PDT. Big potential that's been building now moves out into the world, with transformative consequence.

At a time when physical nature is historically amplified (Jupiter in Virgo trine Pluto in Capricorn) and revolutionary passion is undeniable (Saturn in Sagittarius trine Uranus in Aries), deep feeling challenges us to accept tender sensitivity (Neptune in Pisces), key to healthy humanity amidst the unfolding drama. On Wednesday, 6/29, activating Mars ends retrograde (internalizing) in emotionally intense Scorpio, triggering spirit energy expression.

The reinforced power of nature is breaking through the failing tension of imposed control. Give in to creation, see where it leads.
