Friday 7/27/18--Leo full moon eclipse

Midsummer full moon power alignment, 1:20pm PT.  Sun in Leo, peak passion, Moon full with activating Mars (at its closest) in Aquarius, awareness amidst the pattern of our involvements.  Ripening essence is energized.

Emotional intensity is magnified, guided by tender sensitivity (Jupiter in Scorpio, Neptune in Pisces).  Physical nature is reinforced, led by revolutionary wisdom (Saturn and Pluto in Capricorn, Uranus in Taurus).  Healing is emerging (Chiron in Aries).  Mental Mercury has turned retrograde, backtracking and internalizing for a few weeks, undermining momentum with reflection.  Nothing wrong with this if we give in to changes, let life develop naturally.

This is the time of year when pressure that's been building breaks out, with sometimes historic consequence.  The Leo new moon on 8/11 is a culminating turning point for this year.

Saturday 7/21/18

We've been going through a peak of intensified sensitivity (Moon with Jupiter in Scorpio, Sun in Cancer, Neptune in Pisces--water signs), now solid with this, moving forward from here.  With earthy energy (Saturn and Pluto in Capricorn, Uranus in Taurus, Venus in Virgo) and activated mentality (Mars in Aquarius). 

Spirit at the bottom of things the next few days (Moon into Sagittarius Sunday), into grounded rebounding Tuesday afternoon (Moon into Capricorn 2:49pm PT).  Sun into peak passion Leo Sunday, midsummer full moon Friday.  

All the visible planets are in the night sky--Venus bright in the west after sunset, Jupiter overhead, Saturn to its left, and, rising after 10, big orange Mars (closest it gets) in the east.  Beautiful.

Thursday 7/12/18--Cancer new moon

Emotional release, energized with primal power rooted in core needs  A big wave of intensified sensitivity that's been building shifts to flowing expression, with reinforced physical nature demanding constructive adjustment to move forward in comfort.

Sun and Moon meet in Cancer, opposite Pluto in Capricorn (7:48pm PT).  With Jupiter in Scorpio and Neptune in Pisces, grand trine in water signs (and Saturn, Uranus and Venus making grand trine in earth signs), accepting vulnerability is key to resolving breaking tension.

Jupiter ends retrograde/Cancer new moon

Big Jupiter has ended months of retrograde, backtracking and internalizing, in Scorpio, peak spirit intensity (Tuesday 10:04am PT).  We are fully charged with emotion, shifting forward into expression.  Moon joins Sun in flowing feeling Cancer Wednesday (10:59am PT), new moon there Thursday (7:48pm PT), energized with physical nature power (opposite Pluto in Capricorn).

Thursday 7/5/18

After alignment in awareness (Moon in Aquarius) and saturating sensitivity (Moon in Pisces), self-emergence (Moon into Aries).
