Hands up – who is having a word vomit moon ? Truth spewing misunderstandings all over the shop ?
>>> Feelings meet wildharecard metamorphosis that is Uranus square Pluto/Sun with an undertow of emo, touchy feely Moon strong in ruling house – quincunx Saturn.

Smoldering agitation with likelihood of emo/cerebral lightning strikes !  Deluge of desires including lust, power, achievement, recognition and make it snappy !  See me ( ! ) bursts of Saturnian work frustration square Neptune in Piscesan fog and dispersion.  Arcane moments of clarity/convergence coupled with wounding/healing unearthing private revelations.  YES.

1 – Tonight I had a talk with my mother, who has incoming Full Moon on Pluto opposing her Sun and Mercury.  On Christmas Eve she said to my nephew who has recently been writing for a newspaper, “we’ve never had a writer in the family before”.
What.   ?! !
As you can imagine, this went over with me like a #@(*%&@ ?!  lead balloon.  Moon opposite Neptune girl.  It is what it is.  I had an instant fit that passed quickly – ya know helladays and all – tba aka: to be addressed…later.

2 – Then I wrote something equally surprising suggestive/revealing with t. Venus trine my natal Uranus/Sun.  Ah well.  Is true.  It’s out there in public now, may as well roll with it.  I have Moon trine Virgo Pluto/Uranus/Sun…saying what I feel often works in my favor as personal growth if nothing else.  I am learning firsthand Venus on Venus is charming, pleasingly flirty, magnetic.  It is what it is.

So what is in store for you ?  Keep an eye on
– house Aries (Uranus focal of T-Square at 12)  for massive inner growth
as you deal with the hardballs (co-operation) others are pitching you between
-houses Cancer (Moon 14) in opposition to Capricorn (Pluto 13/Sun 14)

Signs/houses to read for inner growth: Aries 1, Taurus 12, Gemini 11, Cancer 10, Leo 9, Virgo 8, Libra 7, Scorpio 6, Sagittarius 5, Capricorn 4, Aquarius 3, Pisces 2
All houses are in the dropdown menu above this post.

Signs/houses to read for peace talks: Aries/Libra 4/10, Taurus/Scorpio 3/9, Gemini/Sagittarius 2/8, Cancer/Capricorn 1/7, Leo/Aquarius 6/12, Virgo/Pisces 5/11

Also note Nodes of Destiny are squaring this lunation.  The future is upon us – like it or not – and it is Venus-ruled. ~> Interp here.  The past – take the best – leave the rest !
Squares lead to growth via friction and work.

Note also that Chiron sextiles Sun/Pluto from Pisces, so believe in healing through the wounds.  Have compassion for yourself as well as others.  Forgive and move on.  The healer is also healed.

peace, balance, love with sex
…and industry
Happy First Full Moon of 2015, may they all be bright and bearing blessings.

This reading is a 3 card draw.
Clarification of energies surrounding the Full Moon in Cancer.

Energies prior, during, after.
Last card is the message from spirit at the bottom of the deck.

Cards are from the deck Soulcards 2 Deborah-Koff Chapin.

Message from Spirit

Full moon card is extraordinarily appropriate –
Full Moons happen when the Sun is opposite Moon, and Gaia is in the middle.

Sun is the male, ego, ambition
Moon is the female, instinct, emotion

Oppositions are finding the balance between the two energies.
The middle ground is where Gaia rests in the sky.
Our home.
(Cancer rules the home)
 Moon rules Cancer and represents the Cosmic Mother.

Interesting during this lunation we have a need to restrict in a Venus ruled sign trying to find balance with the need to expand in the other Venus ruled sign.

Venus rules love, art, money, and harmony.
Venus rules Libra of balance.
Venus rules Taurus of Earth.

What does this spread say to you..?

January 9, 2012 at 1:30 AM CST, USA is the Full Moon in Cancer at 18 degrees.

I am looking at the natal chart for the Full Moon and it occurs to me the lovely trines and sextiles look like a step in cats cradle (click).

It wouldn’t be a Cancer Full Moon post if I didn’t share some weird memory, right ?  Well, here it is…my art story…
When I was in grade school I made a string picture.  You know the one, dip the string in paint, swirl it on the paper, smack another paper on top and press, then pull out the string, peel apart the papers and see what it looks like ! My Dad framed mine (so sweet, yeah ?) and it hung on the wall of his den for years, so I remember what it looks like.  I laid out the string in blues and greens in the pattern of the aspects in my natal chart before I even knew what it looked like.  No. Kidding.  How weird is that ?!

Now on to the Full Moon chart:
Jupiter in Taurus opposite Saturn in Libra is a tug of war between going large in art, money and love < -or- >  being thrifty, economical, balanced and practical.
Sun opposite Full Moon will bring focus to Cancerian matters (home, family, the root of your root, the deep watery well of your psyche) expect to find some new developments in these areas.   Look to 18 degrees in the house of Cancer in your natal chart for more clues.
This Full Moon will be opposite (others involvement) Capricorn and square (your internal struggle) Aries and Libra, also look there.

Mercury conjunct Pluto in Capricorn trine Jupiter in Taurus – not only are powerful communications off the chart, but they are grounded, firm in earth.  Thinking will also be grinding our internal gears with Mercury/Pluto in a knockout square to intuitive Uranus in gung – ho Aries.

Who do you think would win a head butt competition between Capricorn and Aries…?!

What will we be learning and what will we do about it is going to be rattling around in our heads as Mercury is in square to Mars in self-improvement prone Virgo during the Full Moon.  Mercury is also squaring Uranus, it is the focal point of a T-Square, so thinking and talking is most definitely on the table during this Full Moon.

Luckily, Mercury is simmering in the Saturnian (slow, patient) cooker of Capricorn giving the quicksilver tongue time to think before blurting something only to regret later.
Mercury/Pluto are also sextile Saturn, crunching the numbers, and doing the work for long-term results.

What I find really terrific about this sky is the trines !   And the sextiles !
Mercury/Pluto conjunction – intense thinking and communiques in trine (ease) to exploratory happy -go- lucky Jupiter.

 The above are sextile the conjunction below : intense curiosity and cerebral twists surrounding art, mysticism, love and $ !

Venus/Neptune/Chiron conjunction – transcendent art, spiritual love and mysticism in trine to eathy manifestor, Saturn the builder.  Last chance for some Uranian style Venus conjunct Neptune universal cosmic love vibrations, in Full Moon fashion.
Full Moon amps up the emotional volume, work it !
So, hear ye, hear ye, groovy peeps ~ set your frequencies to peace, love and healing while Venus, Neptune and Chiron spark it up !

Make art, write poetry, eat good food, play, laugh, water your roots !

The above are sextile philosophical Jupiter with the penchant for dreaming BIG.
Let’s all finger paint & fold the paper in half and do Rorschach tests ! (click)
oh come on – it could be fun !
haha … Seriously though, whatever it is that lights you up – Do it !
Feed your soul on this Cancer Full Moon !

Sun in Capricorn trine Mars in Virgo – that’s diligence and perseverance and duty – get out the toothbrush and clean the corners, wrap it up, slam dunk the organization on the material plane.

That outgoing Mars power has the opportunity to make emotional inroads as well with a sextile to the Full Moon.

Happy Full Moon all ~
