Great Weekend – Moon in Passionate Scorpio, Then Peppy Sagittarius

Astro moon-waning-crescent-lBeginning Friday December 27, 2013, until Sunday, the Moon is solidly in the middle of Scorpio drama, intensity and determination. Anything you want to find out? Search for anyone, uncover a mystery? The Scorpio Moon provides the determination and energy to discover and handle truths. Secrets are not safe from this Pluto ruled Water sign. No hiding allowed. It translates to an unwillingness to coast, “go along to get along”, etc. Some feathers may be ruffled, but the impulse to drill deep and get to the bottom of whatever will be hard to deny.

Early Sunday morning, it’s all about Sagittarius. When the Moon bounces into this Jupiter ruled Fire sign, we tend to be upbeat, friendly risk takers. It’s all good, everything is possible, a “yes” attitude. Fun Sagittarian energy – great time to do something, be something, learn something – and enjoy it!

Have a marvelous weekend!

 

Theatrical Leo & Practical Virgo – Be Flexible!

This weekend, the Moon will shift us thru a variety of moods. It’s all good, we can handle it.

Astro moon-waning-crescent-lThe Lunar orb is in generous, dramatic (great for actors), attention seeking, creative Leo on Friday and Saturday, December 20 and 21. Ruled by the Sun, this fun loving Fire sign may add some drama, but we will be active, upbeat, and magnanimous, which can make for a really good time.

On Sunday, the energy changes when the Moon moves into Earthy, service oriented Virgo. Its traits of practicality and responsibility will give focus to doing what is needed. Take care of loose ends, pay attention to the details, handle business – accomplishment is exciting and makes you feel proud:)

Whatever you do, make it a weekend to remember!

 

Weekend Moon: Solid Taurus & Flexible Gemini

Astro moon-waning-crescent-lIDK what you’ve got planned for Friday March 15th, but with a grounded, earthy, Taurus Moon you could start your weekend stubborn and determined. We can use its often Bull like nature to get things done. This 2nd sign of the Zodiac, ruled by lovely Venus, also loves the sensual, so some romance, some good food are not bad to add to the agenda.

The Saturday evening Moon sends us into the fast talking, multi tasking, change loving world of Gemini for the rest of the weekend. This Air sign can be a little flighty and distracted, so think before you speak or push “send” on that email or text. Be versatile, but focused – it can work.

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

(“IDK” = “I don’t know” in text speech 🙂 Twitter & FB have been such an education!

 

Astrology: Sun Into Cancer 6/21 – We have Solstice!

Our Summer Solstice, Tuesday June 21, 2011, coincides with the Sun’s swim into the Water sign of Cancer.  This Moon ruled 4th sign of the Zodiac will nurture us thru the longest day of the year. Cancers can be emotional, moody, restless and sensitive, but– they will always take care. Family, real or created, is the primary focus. (Crustacean shell with marshmallow interior.) Just be careful about going overboard with comfort eating and/or needing to be needed. Know what is best for you – with both food and people.

Those of us with  a different Sun sign, can still take advantage of the reigning Lunar Cancer influences by paying attention to instincts or any feelings that can’t be put into words. Don’t let the antennas wilt with the heat. Heightened awareness can provide useful information. And, of course enjoy the homey, comfy company of family and friends. Loving them and feeding them ice cream is all part of the program. Fun stuff!

Summer Solstice, in the Northern Hemisphere, 1st degrees of Cancer, 1:17PM Eastern/ 10:17AM Pacific, heralds a time of beach chairs, espadrilles and lemonade (or just sweating in the city). The year is half over – what are you going to do with what’s left?

Astrology: Moon into Business-Like Capricorn

The Moon changes signs about every 2 1/2 days . Out of the peppy Fire sign Sagittarius – next stop the serious, organized Earth sign Capricorn.  You can use the new energy to focus, accomplish, complete and be in charge!

Next, the Moon will move into the innovative, free spirit Air sign of Aquarius in the early morning of Wednesday 4/7/10. Expect the unexpected.


Astrology: Moving Planets

Wednesday March 10th is a busy day –”planetarily” speaking.

The Moon is currently in the ambitious, business focused Earth sign of Capricorn until 1:59 pm PST Wednesday.  Ruled by Saturn, a Capricorn Moon can be a time of very deliberate movement.  That sluggishness, coupled with the Retrograde Mars, might give a feeling of walking in molasses when it comes to any career plans.  However, the Moon only stays in a sign for 2 to 2 ½ days. It will move into the innovative, unrestrained Air sign of Aquarius by the evening of the 3/10.

As mentioned a few weeks ago, the volatile planet Mars (in the Fire sign of Leo), retrograde since December, will reverse and go forward on the same day.  But, before a planet can reverse, it must slow down to a standstill.  As it does that, the planet’s themes/characteristics are enhanced.  Look out for hot tempered issues, rash judgments, impatience as it starts its direct motion. Things will really speed up as we get to the weekend and the New Moon. Get something started!
