According to Sandy

Look forward to a Gemini Full Moon on Wednesday (Pacific) and Thursday (Eastern). While opposite the Sagittarius Sun, it will glow in all its roundness. As always with a “Full” phase, finish and complete any old projects hanging around. Clear out any debris to make room for what’s next. (New Moon in ambitious Capricorn 12/25/19 – great time for new beginnings)

While the Moon is in the Mercury ruled 3^rd sign of the Zodiac, communication is key. Chatting, Twittering, Face Booking, etc. can tend towards the witty and the clever, and with “Full” energy, our interactions can also be purposeful, powerful and precise. I love this quote from Deepak Chopra:

“Language creates reality. Words are magical power. Speak always to create joy”

Let us all do that!

* Gemini Full Moon: PST 12/11 ~ 9:12 PM / EST 12/12 ~ 12:12 AM

Howling for luxury and looking for delicious eats – but still counting dollars? It might be the vibrations of the Taurus Full Moon on Tuesday November 12, 2019. This is a security focused Earth sign guided by its ruler – the elegant, luxury loving planet Venus.

Whatever vibes are out there can all be put to good use. Indulge the sensual side, while monitoring investments. Share whipped cream and chocolate covered strawberries with a significant other while tallying the checkbook at the same time. It’s possible!

As always with a “Full” Moon, it’s a good time to finish what you’ve started. Before the next “New” Moon, use grounded Taurus’ influence to complete any financial dealings and/or improvements to surroundings – beauty, comfort and safety. Who do you have to be, so that you can do whatever it takes to have those things you value most?

*Taurus Full Moon Nov. 12, 2019 ~ 8:34 AM EST / 5:34 AM PST

<Sagittarius New Moon, 11/26/19>

The possibilities are endless. We have “Triskaidekaphobia” Day – scary? bad? troublesome? Get a grip. On Friday, September 13, 2019, the West Coast will have a “Harvest” Full Moon in sensitive, emotional Water sign Pisces. (The Full Moon happens after Midnight September 14 on the East Coast)

The 11^th sign of the Zodiac is wonderful for creativity and connecting with others, but sometimes not so much for staying grounded. Be as imaginative, caring and compassionate as you wish. Be present, stay in the moment – dismiss any escapist urges. Reality may often bite, but it can be handled without mind altering options. Take care of your inner self. You matter.

When the Moon is Full, the Sun is directly opposite and lights it up. The “Full” phase has great energy to finish up old projects. Finalize. Complete.

~ Pisces Full Moon * Sept. 13 – 9:33 PM PDT / Sept. 14 – 12:33 AM EDT

FYI 1: The “Harvest Moon” is whichever Full Moon occurs closest to the Autumn Equinox. (Libra Sun 9/23/19)

FYI 2:  “Triskaidekaphobia” – fear of Friday the 13^th. I have found that Friday the 13^th is usually a lucky day for me. I don’t think it had anything to do with it being a payday or anything? 🙂  Regardless, I expect good things to happen!

On Thursday, August 15, 2019, the Full Moon will be in the unconventional, humanitarian, 11^th sign of the Zodiac. Aquarius encourages spontaneous change, community activism, group fun with a purpose and just contribution in general. Before jumping to the front lines, pause and reflect – is the issue real for you, or is the response automatic / knee jerk.  “No Justice, No Peace” – (Love it)

Just a reminder – a”Full” Moon phase packs power and can give our thoughts clarity. It starts the “waning” or decreasing period, on its way to the 3rd and 4th quarters. This can be a great time to gather and tally results or confront the useless – clean up old projects, get rid of outmoded thought patterns and attitudes in order to clear the way for the “New”.  (New Moon in Virgo 8/30/19)

*Aquarius Full Moon: 8/15/19 ~ 8:29 AM EDT * 5:29 AM PDT

Time to perk up! Early Saturday morning, the Moon bounced into optimistic, jovial Sagittarius and remains until it reaches Full Moon stage on Monday 6/17/19. Get out and about, see people. Travel, adventure and risk will look sooooo  appealing.

Lucky planet Jupiter rules this Fire sign and we can all feel a bit more upbeat and energetic. With Sagittarius, we have a sense that “of course good things can happen” with a willingness to go for miracles. Take advantage of the vibe, work it – but, don’t get too cocky, pay attention to the details. Stay grounded. Stay safe.

*Full Moon in Sagittarius: June 17th, 4:31 AM EDT / 1:31 AM PDT

~ BTW: At “Full” phase, the Moon is “waning”, on its way to the 3rd and 4th quarters, therefore, it is a good time to snip loose ends, clean up and finalize old projects. (The best time to create, start, plant new things is from the beginning of a “New Moon” phase thru the 2nd quarter – “waxing”.)

A Full Moon will be in classy, relationship focused Libra on Friday, April 19, 2019.  This Air sign is ruled by the lovely Venus and hopefully this will make us more inclined to cooperate with partners, seek balance and calm in negotiations.

Its great time to do all of the above while being super social, beautifying both ourselves and our surroundings at the same time. It may help us tune out/tone down any negative, angry voices out there (or in our heads). Charm and beauty – always a good antidote.

As I’ve mentioned in this space before, a ”Full” Moon phase packs power and can give our thoughts clarity. It starts the “waning” or decreasing, of the Lunar orb, a good time to gather results or confront the useless – clean up old projects, get rid of outmoded thought patterns and  attitudes in order to clear the way for the next “New” Moon – Taurus on 5/4/19.

*Libra Full Moon 4/19/19 ~  7:12 AM EDT / 4:12 AM PDT

Life is always a bit deeper when the Moon is in sensitive, sizzling Scorpio and when the luminary is at its “Full” phase in this emotional Water sign, power and passion can go off the charts.

The Scorpio Full Moon arrives on Sunday, April 29, 2018. Ruled by transformational planet Pluto, (traditional ruler is warrior planet Mars) there are deep feelings, intensity and purpose influencing us with energy to spare.

A Full Moon is a good time to gauge what needs to be finalized and completed in the next few weeks. Use Scorpio’s focus and determination to figure out what to keep and what to throw away (meaning – discard whatever is no longer useful.) Letting go is not necessarily giving up.

Scorpio also pushes us to pay attention to money matters that may involve others. Are there any financial issues that need to be cleared or settled– taxes, business ventures? Does anyone owe you anything? Time to collect?

*Scorpio Full Moon: 4/29/18 – 8:58 PM EDT / 5:58 PM PDT

On Thursday March 1, 2018, the Moon (Virgo) is opposite and reflecting the Sun (Pisces) = “Full Moon”. The hard working 6^th sign of the Zodiac is about health, service, handling the details and getting things done. A “Full” phase is a great time to finalize whatever projects and plans you have been putting off. Just be careful not to do too many things at once. Juggling might be exciting and a personal test of skills, but don’t go overboard. Think “pace”. The universe will support you in being productive, useful, healthy and whole.

The influences of this Lunar phase will last for several days even when the sign changes to Libra on 3/3/18

BTW: Virgo’s planet ruler Mercury will be joining imaginative, nebulous Neptune in Water sign Pisces until 3/5/18. This can be great for creativity, but, not so much for reliability. Be steady and discriminating while being a genius, even if those around you are not.

*Virgo Full Moon: March 1, 2018 – 7:51 PM EST / 4:51 PM PST 

This month the Full Moon, called a “Harvest Moon” due to the season, is in the 1^st sign of the Zodiac. As always with Fire sign Aries, make sure you have something physical to do to burn off all that excess energy. Reign in any aggressive urges, think before you act. Ruled by “Warrior” planet Mars, its combustible, aggressive, spark plug traits may be influenced by transiting Uranus, the unpredictable planet of change and revolution. (It remains until May 2018.)

Use the next few weeks to finish up old projects, clean up messes (physical, personal?) that you have been ignoring lately. Initiate, take charge, go first – just don’t do that “throw out the baby with the bath water” thing. Think it through and get it done.

* Harvest Full Moon in Aries 10/5/17 * 2:40 PM EDT / 11:40 AM PDT

**The first Full Moon after the Autumn Equinox is always labeled a “Harvest Moon” (9/22/17 – Sun moved into Libra)

During a “Full” phase, the luminaries are exactly opposite each other. The Aries  Moon is fully lit by the Libra Sun. (Beautiful, dramatic, nothing to fear.)

The revolution may be televised or not – but there will certainly be unusual, unconventional activity as we encounter not only a Full Moon, in freedom loving, group focused Aquarius, but also a Lunar Eclipse. A stubborn, independent cause infused sign, it is all about “We / Us” rather than “I / Me”. 

The humanitarian, 11^th sign of the Zodiac encourages spontaneous change, community activism, group fun with a purpose and just contribution in general. Before jumping to the front lines, pause and reflect – is the issue real for you, or is the response automatic / knee jerk.  “No Justice, No Peace” – (Love it)

Just a reminder – a ”Full” Moon phase packs power and can give our thoughts clarity. It starts the “waning” or decreasing period, on its way to the 3rd and 4th Moon quarters. This can be a great time to gather and tally results or confront the useless. Clean up old projects, get rid of outmoded thought patterns and attitudes in order to clear the way for the “New” Moon in about 2 weeks.

*Aquarius Full Moon: 8/7/17 – 2:11 PM EDT * 11:11 AM PDT

** Lunar Eclipse:  It’s power increases the possibility of positive change manifesting over the next few months.
