According to Sandy

Friday June 15, 2012 graces us with a Taurus Moon all day. Venus rules this sensuous yet finance concerned Earth sign. You may choose to either tackle that bank statement or, indulge yourself, and partner, with delicious, chocolate dipped strawberries. Remember, not all things are either/or. “AND” can often work very well too 🙂

With the Sun currently in Gemini, the Saturday night switch to a Moon in the same Air sign will stimulate those traits for which this Mercury ruled sign is known. Its duality (the Twins?) can make us clever and versatile and also a little flighty and distracted. Go and chat someone up, but, think before you speak (or push “send” on that email or text).  

Taurus and Gemini Moons can lead us toward a social weekend: delicious food, entertaining conversation, high or low brow literary pursuits.

Enjoy!

May 18, 2012 could be a loving, luxurious Friday or a stubborn, determined one. When the Moon is in the Venus ruled, Fixed, Earth sign of Taurus, it’s all about sensuality, life’s beauty and pleasures, but it also brings forth the obstinate bull in us. Is there such a thing as inflexible love? Nobody wants to lose, give up/ give in, change direction. “Stickin-to-your-guns” works, until it doesn’t. Pay attention and accept when it stops. Regardless, surround yourself with good food, good people and good times.

On Sunday afternoon, May 20, the mood changes along with arrival of a Gemini New Moon. An initiative focused New Moon pushes us to “start” something. Since it’s in the 3^rd sign of the Zodiac, ruled by Communication planet Mercury, whatever we start will probably be in some form of personal interaction – speaking, writing, etc. Launch an idea, a pitch, a book, an inquiry…

BTW:  A Moon is “New” when it’s in the same sign as the Sun. The Sun moves into Airy Gemini on the same day, May 20, 2012 – 8:20AM Pacific/ 11:19 am Eastern.

(A post celebrating the Gemini Sun will be up on Sunday)

All day Friday, January 6, 2012, is about Gemini Moon influences: craving variety, being flexible, needing to communicate – such as talking and texting at the same time. Just pay attention to what you say or write, don’t get sloppy. (Remember that old saying about “loose lips”, etc) 

Saturday afternoon quiets down the restless energy as the Cancer Moon glides us toward calm and comfort. There will be nesting instincts with lots of sensitivity and emotion thrown in. (Don’t take anything personally.) There may also be nurturing and caring, which usually involves food. Share. Besides being a nice thing to do, it will also cut down on any overeating tendencies that might surface.

Enjoy the weekend!

The Moon is in the versatile 3^rd sign of the Zodiac Gemini on Friday, however, its flexibility and people person traits are intensified early on Saturday December 10, 2011 due to the Moon’s Full phase and Eclipse in the same sign. Possibilities of clear, meaningful verbal / written exchanges with the Mercury ruled Air sign are always with us, but with “Full” and Eclipse energy, even more so. 

Lunar Eclipses often make us rush – giving us the urge to finish/complete –whether the urgency is real or imagined.  Resist any push to be hyper or frazzled because Mercury is still Retrograde until December 13^th, so finalizing plans or signing contracts having to do with travel, communications, education might benefit from close scrutiny and review, rather than rushing thru.

What do you need or want to say? What do you need or want to write?  With Gemini, words can always be clever, but now they can also be purposeful, powerful and precise. Take advantage.

Enjoy a fun, intentional weekend!

I love this quote from Deepak Chopra:

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

Friday October 14, 2011 is Taurus Moon all day. Venus rules this sensuous yet finance concerned Earth sign along with our current Sun – Airy, beauty loving Libra. Choices to be made? Either tackling that bank statement, or indulging yourself with delicious, chocolate dipped strawberries. Remember, not all things are either/or. “AND” can often work very well too 🙂

Early Saturday, we are gifted with the Moon in Gemini until Monday afternoon. The chatty, quicksilver, variety loving traits of this Air sign makes it a great time for scrabble, catching up on current events (gossiping?), traveling, communication of all kinds. Connect with people.

Have a super weekend!

Beginning Friday September 16, a sensual Taurus Moon will work its magic until the multi tasking Gemini Lunar orb brings a different kind of terrific early in the morning on Sunday September 18.  Earthy, Venus ruled Taurus and Airy, Mercury ruled Gemini should make for a social weekend – tender romance, delicious food, entertaining conversation, high or low brow literary pursuits – not bad! 

For the next few days, take advantage of whatever diverse moods and energy are available in the universe due to the changing Zodiac Moon signs. However, note that although Taurus can be loving and full of charm, it can also be stubborn and determined. While Gemini’s duality (the Twins?) can make us clever and versatile, we can also be a little flighty and distracted – so think before you speak or push “send” on that email or text. Choose to use whichever traits work the best for you.

Regardless of what you get into – have a terrific weekend!

Friday afternoon February 11 brings us to a Gemini Moon weekend. The options are endless- chatting, reading, socializing, taking a class.

We will have 2 and 1/2 days of this Mercury ruled Air sign’s communication focused vibrations. Good time to learn, teach, share what you know.

However, try to hold off on the gossip, it can come back to bite you. If the temptation for verbal mischief is too great, play scrabble.

Have a fabulous weekend!

IDK (“I don’t know” in texting speech :)) what you’ve got planned for this Friday January 14^th, but with a Taurus Moon you could start your weekend stubborn and determined. The Taurus Bull is always a good way to get things done.

This 2^nd sign of the Zodiac, ruled by lovely Venus, also loves the sensual, so romance, good food are not bad to add to the agenda.

Saturday and Sunday will be run by Gemini’s duality – multi tasking, talking, writing. Ruled by fleet footed  Mercury, this Air sign can be a little flighty and distracted, so think before you speak or push “send” on that email or text.  Be social, juggle those inevitable communications, flit around, have fun.

Regardless of whatever you get into – have a terrific weekend!

Early this morning a Full Moon occurred: the Luminaries were opposite each other – Sun in the last stages of Sagittarius (Capricorn Sun doesn’t happen until later this evening), while the Moon was in its partner sign of Gemini. At the same time, there was a Lunar Eclipse in versatile, communication focused Gemini.

Possibilities of clear, meaningful verbal/written exchanges with this Mercury ruled Air sign are always with us, but with “Full/Eclipse” energy, even more so. Lunar Eclipses often make us rush – an urge to finish/complete –whether the urgency is real or imagined. Mercury is still Retrograde until the end of December. Finalizing communications or contracts might benefit from close scrutiny and review, rather than rushing thru.

What do you need to say? What do you need to write?  With Gemini, words can always be clever, but now they can also be purposeful, powerful and precise.

December 17^th has the possibilities of being a loving, luxurious Friday or a stubborn, determined one. Just depends. Earth sign Taurus Moon speaks to beauty, sensuality and also the obstinate bull in us. Hmmmm, which way to go?

The Saturday evening Moon sends us into the fast talking, project juggling, change loving world of Gemini. Duality is the key word– yes, we can often do 2 things at once, but no, it doesn’t go well all the time. Be versatile and focused – it can work.

Have a lovely, obstinate,  chatty weekend!
