The 2024 Capricorn New Moon conjunct Pluto

-


The infamous sea goat is ironically an earth sign, ruled by Saturn, the farthest planet from us that we can still see with our naked eye. This planet is associated with many stories and themes around, boundaries, limitations, responsibility and the power of time. 

The new moon in Capricorn is showing us this power of aligned mental and emotional intentions set with genuine patience, deep determination and complete commitment. Like a mother accepting pregnancy and the transition to motherhood. Aligning with our power with integrity means to take responsibility for the destruction that comes with creation. We are a physical manifestation of our ancestors' combined willpower and quite literally people have died so we could live.

This moon is a reminder that every blessing comes with a cost and it’s our personal responsibility to pay our dues and respect. We are physically and spiritually connected to one another in a way that demands us to understand our true and perceived limitations are actually in service to each other long term if we allow them to be.


The moon will also be conjunct Pluto today showing up as an intense weight emotionally that may have been building over the past week. These feelings may be so strong they overwhelm you or someone around you. Be mindful of this potent energy and avoid giving into destructive habits or impulses. Can you sit and explore these transformative feelings that need to be released?


Remember that emotions are energy in motion so move your body or express your thoughts and feelings through writing poetry, music or any form of creativity. This is a time where we may be deeply healing our collective mother wound, accepting the love and sacrifice of every mother and mother figure we’ve known.


When we accept the immense weight of our own physical and spiritual power, we may feel ironically powerless under this burden of knowledge. This is a good time to give yourself a moment to connect to an ancestor or older person who has more life experience and can for a moment help bear the weight with you.


Take a moment to sit quietly with yourself and meditate on your long term commitments, even if you think you have none, what are one or two things that are important to you? Your family, your health, your legacy?


How can you take more responsibility for your choices this year and commit to mastering a new skill or challenging your previously held beliefs and limitations?


Enjoy the peace of this season and get nice and quiet so you really listen to the voice within. Once we slow down and look at the mountain ahead of us, and deeply accept and respect the wisdom of the past, we can move on to climb the next mountain.

Slow Down and Smell the Damn Roses with this New Moon in Taurus

            There's no better time than right now to take a moment to slow down and check in with where you're at and where you are heading. How long have you been driving on auto-pilot? Are you even heading to where you set out to go, or are you just taking the familiar path home and to work?      Although it might feel like things are busier than ever, or there's this growing pressure building whenever you think ahead, now is truly the time to take a moment and rest in order to re-align and focus on the task at hand. Maybe you're like me and you've been focusing on too many things at once, getting lost in your to-do list or avoiding it all together. Or maybe you're not a master procrastinator like me, and just need a little water break to refuel your tanks and keep going.  Whatever it is you need to do, take a moment to prepare before taking action. Don't just keep doing whatever you've been doing if it isn't working or building t...

Navigating the Eclipse in Virgo

-

        As this summer wanes and we come to the end of Virgo season, the winds of change are cool and brisk, ready to sweep away old stagnancy creating space for new growth and abundance. This partial solar eclipse in Virgo on Sunday caps the end of the season before the sun moves into Libra and the new chapter of autumn officially begins, perhaps with some big shocks and surprises.    Solar eclipses are often described as, not just an ordinary new beginning, but more of a physical portal or super significant shift into a brand new direction or phase of life. With Virgo being an earth sign ruled by Mercury, this eclipse is thrusting us into a new timeline with situations that will have us evaluating and analyzing where we are and where we want to go as well as how we may have found ourselves here. Not only that but who is in the driver's seat of your life and what or who are you allowing to guide you ?   The key right now is to use ...

The Power of Passion, Courage and Vulnerability: Mars transit back into Leo

-

 The question that comes to my mind when I think of this planet Mars, that represents action, passion and conflict, moving from watery Cancer into the fire sign Leo today is, " What was I running from and what  am I really fighting for?"       Since this transit is occurring after Mars moved from 6 degrees Leo back to 17 degrees Cancer in it's retrograde it represents the energetic rebirth that comes from reflecting and facing our feelings and patterns with the healing rays of love and honesty. It's realizing the power that comes with being vulnerable enough to change and still face all of ourselves in the mirror with love, choosing courageously to bear our heart and take action to protect what we whole heartedly believe in.      While in Cancer Mars was in what's known as its fall and is considered debilitated. While Mars is in retrograde it's a good idea to take time to reflect and review the areas of our lives we are noticing conflict...
