8 Sagittarius 10

This Full Moon at 8 degrees of Sagittarius puts the Sun at 8 degrees of Gemini. The Moon trines the North Node of Destiny in Leo and the Sun sextiles it. This is a lovely Full Moon illuminating the path we should be heading down collectively and individually. Opportunities, previously not there are, now are. The question is: Do you have the courage to take that opportunity and move into the future! Sagittarius and Gemini are directly affected. I’m reminded of an Oscar Wilde quote: “We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars”. 2

Venus is now in Cancer at 11 degrees, it trines a Jupiter retrograde at 15 degrees Scorpio which, in turn, trines Neptune in Pisces. This puts Venus in her most caring, sensitive, compassionate, side vibrating at a very high level of love and kindness to all. Cancers & Capricorns may have some fabulous developments in their love life. This could be activated again in September for a final time! Venus will also oppose Saturn in Capricorn putting form and stability around our values and view of beauty & relationships. This could mark a serious time for some relationships; especially Cancer & Capricorn. Many will want to make it ‘real’. Enjoy!

Mars is at 4 degrees Aquarius conjuncting the South Nodes of the Moon and opposing the North Nodes of the Moon in Leo. Mars will go retrograde over this point a few times over the summer of 2018. Essentially, having the courage to let go of those things in the past that no longer serve you and, instead, starting a fabulous journey on the yellow brick road of your future destiny.

Chiron is at 1 degree of Aries…a new placement for Chiron that has been in dreamy, spiritual Pisces for many years! Now the individual takes control of their respective ‘healing’and potentially blazes a new trail for individualized medicine and health for all. Uranus is in Taurus till November when it retrogrades briefly back to Aries till April 2019. From then on, Uranus will be fully ensconced in Taurus. I think this is the last of the brashness of others for good or ill to break things up that are stagnant. Individually, this could be breakups coming at you from others or sudden opportunities to ‘finally’ break free from something that has held you back and never seemed to budge. Signs directly affected would be Aries and Libra, Sun or Ascendant.

Mercury sextiles Uranus on 30th May providing opportunities to communicate the new Uranus energy for us individually. A mood of sustainable change will be in the air! The Moon conjuncts Saturn in Capricorn at the end of the month, 31 May casting a serious tone around the structures in your life that may feel like their constricting you. It will then go on to conjunct Pluto making you ‘feel’ like you want change now. Hit “pause” for a day or so before making some big changes in your emotional life.

See you all in June when I talk about the Mars retrograde that begins then & lasts all summer.

“A MOTHER LEADS HER SMALL CHILD STEP BY STEP
UP A STEEP STAIRWAY” 1 p 215

This speaks to providing assistance to those in our culture that need instruction on how to handle those things previously generated by the society itself. This is a natural process between mother and child but can be generalized to members of society guiding those more naïve.
