Monday, September 15th Today's Intention: Reach out and connect. Offer nourishment to yourself and also to those who need it. Moon is waning and transits its mulitrikona sign, Taurus, while in Mrigashirsha nakshatra. Moon receives drishtri from Mars (who is looking directly at the Moon from its own sign of Scorpio) and also from Rahu. This can intensify and agitate the internal waters. Let the indications of Mrigashirsha remind you to give yourself nourishment and care. Mrigashirsha is ruled by both Mars and also the Moon- deified as Soma. Soma is also divine nectar that brings nourishment and healing. This nakshatra is related to comfort and providing comfort to others- just as the ancient Soma plant would offer its healing and nourishment. There is a fickle nature to this nakshatra. Not only is it ruled by Chandra/Soma, the fastest moving of the nine planets, the symbol here is a deer head with antlers. The antlers keep growing, even after they fall off- like branches reaching in many directions. The antlers can also be used medicinally and correlate the crown chakra. Today, nourish your self. Tend to self care and be mindful of your emotional body wisdom. Moon moves to Gemini at 22:49 CDT. Sun is at the edge of Leo and prepares to move towards Virgo. Tuesday, September 16th Today's Intention: Move your pranic winds and work with your inner storms consciously. Moon transits Gemini, still receiving gaze from Mars, and moves into Ardra nakshatra at 11:47 am CDT. Ardra is ruled by both Rudra and Rahu and is known for his intense emotional upheavals, stormy weather and ability for intense power. Rudra is the father of the Maruts (winds) which can manifest externally in the weather as storm gods, or internally as the five types of internal Prana in the body. Proper pranic flow is what keeps the body healthy and well balanced. Using pranayama is helpful today as well as moving the prana within in order to increase circulation. Do a three level check-in to identify you internal weather conditions. Need a reminder about the 3 levels? Rahu and Mercury are in close conjunction right now. You may be noticing an extra level of intensity in your mental body as a result. Is your critic high? Is anxiety and worry increasing? Is there a sense of shadow in your mind? These are likely a result of this conjunction. Be diligent with your mental body awareness and use my recent creative ritual for tending to your inner needs. Sun jumps into Virgo at 19:17 CDT, joining Rahu and exalted Mercury there. The mental heat is on! This Sun transit may offer some shadowed self experiences as well as greater attention to detail. Catch your self in moments of low self esteem, shadowed thinking and uncertainty. Be aware of anxiety and mental turmoil, as well as binary thinking. Don't get stuck in details and mind your communications. Some may also feel a grandeur sense of possibility and motivation this month with diligence, direction and clarity in worldly actions. Mind your mental body right now and don't let it overrule you! Additionally, mind your gut. Both are essential for sharp intuitive guidance. Meditation may be extra helpful this month when the mental body feels overwhelming. Wednesday, September 17th Today's Intention: Be intentional with your imagination. Work consciously with your mental body and let the wisdom of the emotional and physical bodies inform your needs. Mercury and Rahu are in exact conjunction today. Use yesterday's reminders and be diligent with taming your mental body. Let the 3 levels of awareness inform you needs. It may help to get out of excess details. Zoom out. Moon moves to Punarvasu at 14:08 CDT where Aditi and Jupiter offer a more gentle approach to us. Can we soften and listen to their guidance? Aditi and Jupiter bring expansion, wisdom and insight. Their thoughtful universality may help us smooth out the previous days of tension and mental agitation. Still, the mental body is wound a bit tight right now and needs to be reminded to relax. Expect that you will be needing to do this consciously. When you pick up the mental body awareness and bring presence to the thoughts that are coming, keep the reminder alive that the mental body is also the imaginal realm. We get to create whatever we want here. Pay attention, however, to the response of the emotional body and the physical body. Harvest the sensations and awareness that comes to you and take it into movement, art and songs. Get your stories moving and get embodied! Thursday, September 18th Today's Intention: Seek nourishment through the dance of open and close dynamics. What are you inviting in and what are closing off to? Sync with the rhythm of your heart and your breath. Moon moves from Gemini into its own sign, Cancer, at 10:10 am CDT and then moves into Pushya nakshatra at 16:53 CDT. In Cancer, Moon conjuncts exalted Jupiter and receives drishti (gaze) from both Ketu and Saturn. This increases the expansion/contraction themes at play as well as insights into our attachments. Pushya is ruled by Brihaspati (Jupiter deified) as well as Saturn. With the Cancer experience, our attention on boundaries, open and close dynamics and expansion and contraction are enlivened. Yet Pushya provides nourishment as a mother cow gives milk to her calf. Pay attention to how you are being nourished and what is providing this nourishment. Where can you feel this sensation in the body? At the same time be present to what you are inviting in and closing off to. Be conscious about your boundaries- energetic, personal and within relationships. Listen to what your needs are and attend to yourself with compassion, self care and sensitivity. Need to remember how to get back home? Use my recent creative ritual for tending to your need for comfort. Friday, September 19th Today's Intention: What deceptions and illusions are keeping you from your own sense of nourishment? Themes from the previous day about boundaries, nourishment and the rhythm of the heart prevail. Work consciously with the heart rhythm, the chest and ribcase area, as well as the breath. Let your inhales and exhales move you and explore their effects on your body. This is nature's natural expression of open and close dynamics. Sync with your innate rhythm. Need a reminder about how the 3 levels of awareness can help you navigate your inner needs? Moon moves into Ashlesha nakshatra at 19:50 CDT and Sarpa emerges. Moon joins Jupiter in this nakshatra as well so we will likely get a magnification of these nourishment and boundary concerns. Ashlesha is ruled by Mercury (mental body) and Sarpa, a snake who navigates deception and illusion. Look for mental body snags and snares and an intensity with what is being churned up inside of you. We may be questioning ourselves more today and questioning our ability to find support and comfort. Remember to come back to the sensation of nourishment in your body. Where do you feel it? How does it emerge? The body's messages will lead you to awareness. Mercury is sandhi and moving to the edge of its sign of exaltation (Virgo), poised to move into Libra. Take this mental intensity into consideration. As the Moon continues to empty and lose light, we may be feeling this turning inward more as well. Let this time of inner exploration be intentional. Moon is now in the 12th tithi of the waning cycle. Use this time for increased awareness. Saturday, September 20th Today's Intention: Life is movement, shifts and changes. The mental body is no different. Move it, help it move and be witness to its movements. Moon continues to transit Ashlesha nakshatra today. There may be a continued sense of churning and agitation in the mental body as a result of transiting Mercury. Since Mercury is sandhi and moving to the edge of its sign of exaltation (Virgo), poised to move into Libra, a certain level of mental intensity should be taken into consideration. Continue to resource nourishment and small moments of comfort. Let these moments inform the nourishment you need, how you feel it and where you feel it in the physical body. How can this sensation of comfort be a valuable resource for you as you continue to navigate you needs? Need to remember how to get back home? Use my recent creative ritual for tending to this awareness of comfort. Mercury moves to Libra at 15:19 CDT joining exalted Saturn here. This transit brings forward momentum and the retrograde motion of Mercury as well. Mercury moves quickly and reminds us of the constant changes of the mind. He will be in Libra now until he moves back into Virgo on 10.16. His movement into Libra helps us touch upon greater balance, our needs within our relationships, and can provide support with commerce and business. Expect swift movement and momentum. Try not to get lost and blown away in the wind. Moon moves to Leo and jumps into Magha nakshatra at 22:51 CDT. Sunday, September 21st Today's Intention: Empty and release what is not yours. Invite in and hold sacred the parts you wish to keep as your own. Moon transits Leo and Magha nakshatra, enlivening Ketu's influence as well as Pitr- the ancestors. Moon also joins Venus in Leo. Creativity and connection may be extra quick and/or harsh today. We may be influenced more by our ancestors in our thoughts and actions. Be aware of your relationship with these influences and see how they impact your needs. Do you need connection or alone time? Memories or release from the past? Take a moment at least to honor your lineage for what it is, what it has brought to you. How it has helped you arrive at this moment on your map of evolution? Find some gratitude for your roots. Moon is slowly emptying and moves to the 14th tithi of the waning cycle late in the evening. What have you been releasing over the past few weeks and what are you ready to finally let go of now? New Moon is on the 24th as Navaratri begins. This is a very sacred time of year, so let the ancestors help you bring presence to your needs at this time. Need some extra guidance and clarity? Schedule a session with me. Plan your week in tune with nature. Never miss a planetary update. Sign up for my weekly newsletter. Was this post helpful? Please share it with a friend! Thank you.

Thank you all for making my July New Moon Celebration so enjoyable! And congratulations to all who won one of my gifts! Look for some exciting announcements coming soon! Remember, this week only, get 15% off all my services and products. Use code WaxingMoon15 at checkout.
Monday, July 28th Moon moves from its own sign of Cancer and crosses into Leo at 10:33 am CDT. As it jumps into Leo, it enters Magha nakshatra as well. Ketu and Pitr are enlivened, as well as karmic ties, the father and ancestors as well as a sense of authority. The symbol is a palaquin- being carried, lifted like a royal, and with some essence of special treatment, a demand for respect. Magha nakshatra reminds us to be gracious to the ancestors- we are indebted to them after all. The old adage, seven generations back and seven generations forward, reminds us that our actions have effects and we must heed to them. Take moments throughout your day to give gratitude to your ancestors, your lineage, no matter the challenges. Ask your ancestors for guidance and protection. Light a candle and bring in the light. Mercury moves from its own sign of Gemini into Cancer this evening at 18:58 CDT. He joins exalted Jupiter and Sun there; the push to accomplish may be over processed in the coming weeks. Your mental body will be trying to the run the show. Forcing an agenda? Putting too many irons in the fire? Worry and doubt? With Saturn and Ketu giving their drishti to these three planets as well, we get more emotional and heart/chest attention than we may desire. The work must be harmonizing for both expansion and contraction energies; ultimately we are working on balance. Notice where you are opening and where you are closing in your body and in your life. Use my new Moon/Emotional body MP3 for further harvesting. Tuesday, July 29th Moon continues to pass through Magha nakshatra today until 13:34 CDT when it moves into Purvaphalguni. The Phalguni stars are highly fertile, creative and fruit bearing- our ripening in other words. Bhaga rules over the front half of this constellation- Purva- and he is one of the twelve Adityas. The Adityas rule over resources in our lives- he dispenses wealth and happiness and since he is connected to the 9th house, he is also connected to luck, fortune and blessings from our past karmas. He also presides over love and marriage, particularly sex and sensuality within a relationship- the enjoyable parts; the latter half is more about what sustains a marriage, partnerships etc; the truly necessary parts of the equation. With the palpable creativity available in this nakshatra, ruled by both Bhaga and Venus, let your creativity and wealth flow today. Find the resources in your life and give your gratitude to them. Tell your relationships what they mean to you. Let love flow in and out of your heart. Even if it feels challenging, a bit forced or you feel neglected. One drop, that's all you need. Get by giving today. Share, create, enjoy. Just before midnight, Venus moves out of Ardra nakshatra and into Punarvasu. Aditi, and the Adityas (her twelve children), truly come alive! Nourishment and resources offer more potential and possibility at this time. Perhaps we will really feel the nourishment in the heart and our relationships as well. Let it be a balm for what ails you. Wednesday, July 30th Mercury moves into Pushya nakshatra at 10:57 am CDT, joining exalted Jupiter and Sun in Pushya as well. We get triple the nourishment! Pushya is ruled by Brihaspati (Jupiter deified) and the planet Saturn (who is exalted right now). Let the harmony of inhale and exhale, open and close, support your movements, your expansion goals, your physical, emotional and mental needs in the weeks to come. Soak in the abundance that is available to you as if it is a milk bath. And also take a milk bath! Use my new Moon/Emotional body MP3 for further harvesting. The majority of the day we continue to dance with Bhaga and Venus during Purvaphalguni. Let the themes from yesterday work their magic on you. Let your creativity continue to develop, gain awareness and find a new sense of abundance. As Moon moves into the later half of the Phalguni stars, UttaraPhalguni, at 16:31 CDT, we shift our focus to sustainability, the long haul, and what nourishes us for the distance. What do we need to fully utilize our creative potential? What feels necessary within our relationships and partnerships for them to offer satisfaction and harmony? Aryaman and the Sun bring a new layer of hope, a balm for the heart. He is also one of the twelve Adityas that offer resources for life and he does so through physical well being, strength in the body, and the things that long term committed relationships offer- support, stability, children, prosperity and the things that please the ancestors. Since the symbol for the Phalguni stars is a bed (front half and latter half) the metaphor "making your bed and lying in it" is truly applicable here. What type of bed do you sleep on? What kind of sheets do you use? How many pillows do you need to support your head? What direction does your bed face? Who sleeps with you? Or do you sleep alone? Do you make your bed each day or leave it disheveled? How much time do you spend in this restorative and supportive place? Let your bed be the speaker of truths and share its secrets with you. Moon moves to Virgo at 23:13 CDT, joining Rahu there, receiving direct gaze from Ketu. Thursday, July 31st Themes continue from yesterday as the majority of the day the Moon is still transiting through Uttarphalguni. Invite in the nourishment, support and sustenance. Where can a new drop be found? Where can another layer be shown to you? Who can become a gift to your heart today with their kindness? And what do you offer the world in return? This is the gift you wish to see in the world. Share, offer, guide and gift others with your true nature- abundance and light. As Moon sits with Rahu, the doubt and the anxiety may prevent the feeling of abundance from truly showing its light to us. Our experience is shrouded or in some instances, amplified and extra charged. Be a witness. Use a three level check in to harvest your inner knowing and identify what is. Then use this identification for further creative harvesting rather then letting it control you unconsciously. At 19:14 CDT, Moon moves into Hasta nakshatra, inviting in Savitr and the Moon into our awareness. Awakening is the theme and the offering of Hasta and Savitr. Not a full on burn from the Sun, but that delicate slice of light that gently arrives on the horizon line in the early hours of morning. It is silent and brave and filled with potential. That is Hasta and his gift to us. Watch the little sliver of light share its magic with you today. Let this light turn to wisdom and insight. The best gifts are shared, so remember to offer it some tea, invite it to stay a while, and ask it how you should best give this precious gift to others. With Rahu and Moon together right now in Virgo, ask yourself how you can share with the world in a bigger, grander way. Ask and you shall receive. Friday, August 1st The entire day is ruled by Hasta, the light of Savitr, and the silent awakening; potential. Seeds are beginning to germinate. Be sure to give them a soft, gentle shower, some fresh air and bit of sunshine in order to feed them properly. Listen carefully. Roots and shoots are spreading, growing, turning into something alive and awake. You are this tiny seed and you are growing a garden right now. Potential is everything. Go for the gold. Moon nears closer and closer to Rahu and our visions get bigger and bigger. Do they gain focus and grounding or lose it? Do we get lost in smoke and mirrors or can we traverse the illusions of grandeur with impeccable awareness? Work with your shadows, don't get lost in them. Use my new Moon/Emotional body MP3 for further harvesting. As the night takes over, Moon moves into Chitra nakshatra, enlivening Vishvakarma and Mars, joining Rahu in this nakshatra. We will be working with sparkle and shine, action and in-action tomorrow. Make sure you get your beauty rest. Dream about adornments, acts of service and great artistic feats. Avoid intoxication and actions that you will later regret. Saturday, August 2nd Moon and Rahu are in exact conjunction in the first half of the morning as Moon nears the edge of Virgo. Rise and shine or sleep in? Moon moves to Libra at 10:31 CDT, joining Mars and exalted Saturn here, but still in Chitra nakshatra. Our work with stops and starts amplifies. Surrender or force? Vishvakarma helps us build, plan, take action steps that give lasting results. Take a step today in the right direction and let it have a ripple effect on you and your outlook. Today is a good day to work with boundaries. Say no when you mean no and yes only when you mean yes. You can't please everyone, and shouldn't. Can you be firm in your needs by putting yourself first? It's not about being nasty or rude, just firm. That is often the most compassionate choice for all involved. As Moon nears Mars today, watch for getting hot around the collar. Be tactful and diplomatic, but avoid rash, angry decisions. For some this will be a very productive day. A three level check-in might be in order. What is coming up right now? Name it. Aim it. Claim it. Sun moves into Ashlesha nakshatra at 21:36 CDT. The triple nourishment of exalted Jupiter, Mercury and Sun all in Pushya nakshatra shifts now. Mercury is heightened as well as Sarpa, snake energy. Will deception, illusions and over confidence bring new learning, understanding and growth to us? Or will the ego build walls up around the heart so that we miss the truths of the times? The coming weeks will prove valuable for growth. Seek wisdom and awareness, not shadowed thinking- as you will miss the valuable memos if you aren't careful. Moon moves to Swati nakshatra at 23:19 CDT. Sunday, August 3rd Remember, this week only, get 15% off all my services and products. Today is the last day to take advantage of this offer. Use code WaxingMoon15 at checkout. Moon transits Swati nakshatra and is in exact conjunction with Mars at 14:43 CDT. The heat is on and it's being fanned by the winds of Vayu! Super charged and activated or super hot and bothered? Notice where your life is feeling burdened, slowed down, where you are forcing change and feeling like you are getting no where. That's the place that needs your surrender, not more force. Perhaps relationships are requiring strong boundaries. Use them. This is a practice run and Mars and Saturn are giving you ample opportunities to try your yes and no dynamics out. How is it going so far? Remember, one step at a time... Moon nears Saturn late in the evening and our surrender button is activated (or should be). Let Saturn's structure and need for stability rule your actions. Early to bed, nourishment through self care, and only focus on what matters. If you need to empty your head, write out your to-dos and next weeks goals in order to lighten your load and keep the wind from blowing your thoughts around too much. Calming practices will help keep the Vata in check. Abhyangha and warm bath might be in order for tonight. Don't forget a three level check in. Need some extra guidance and clarity for this coming year? Schedule a session with me. Plan your week in tune with nature. Never miss a Moon Mind post. Sign up for my weekly newsletter. Was this post helpful? Please share it with a friend! Thank you. Moon is waning this week. Saturn is now direct after months of retrograde motion. Forward momentum returns to our footsteps and helps the energy of the Mars/Saturn conjunction in Libra ease a bit more. New Moon (amavasya) is on Saturday the 26th. I hope you’ll join me for my new Moon celebration and workshop. Join my new Moon online celebration for some new Moon treats and find out more about my new Moon emotional body workshop!
Monday, July 21st Moon moves into Taurus and exalts just after midnight as Monday starts. Moon is exalted in Krittika nakshatra only until 5:58 am CDT and then goes into its mulitrikona placement after that; still a place where the Moon can express itself nicely and feels resilient and open. Moon receives drishti (gaze) from both Mars and Rahu here. This can offer us the ability to work with the emotional body in new and unusual ways since Rahu has newly entered Virgo and he is still in the gap (sandhi) in the 29 degree range. Anger may be a red hot resource for us as well. Don't negate its messages. We may feel our critical edge being tested, a bit grumpy or challenged as a result. We may also be working with themes of abundance, monetary wealth and our stability as a result (or lack thereof). Today may feel a bit hard and soft at the same time. How can this sense of polarity offer us insight into our needs and desires? Krittika nakshatra is ruled by Agni, the sacred fire god of life, transformation and change. We may begin to feel changes and shifts today in our emotional body as a result. How does this emotional shift effect your physical and mental body experiences as well? Tend to your heart fire today- your digestive fires, your life fires. Stoke the flames with small tinder and fan the flames gently, with compassion and gentleness. Moon moves to Rohini nakshatra at 19:21 CDT. Tuesday, July 22nd Today, I celebrate my 34th re-birth. Thank you all for your continued support and for growing and expanding with me and my dharmic work. This is the biggest gift a soul can ask for. You are one of my birthday gifts and I cherish you! Here's to another year of growth, vision, jyoti (light) and creative abundance. Sending my warmth and blessings to each of you! xo Moon continues in Taurus today and is in the auspicious lunar constellation of Rohini nakshatra. Ruled by lord Brahma, who created the entire universe from his navel, this nakshatra exemplifies the human potential- brimming with creativity and fulfillment of material desires. Goddess Saraswati is the consort of Brahma; she is our creative life force connected to music, the arts, knowledge and wisdom. This dynamic of Saraswati and Brahma together allows the sparks of creative potential to be acted upon and then materialized. Use both to capture the full offerings of this day. With Mars and Rahu's drishti still on the Moon, unusual and foreign creativity can be activated and cultivated today with new action steps. Dream big, think big, create big. Plant seeds with artistic actions and water these desires with thoughtful action steps. Dance, sing, paint, create today. Let the universe hear your heart songs and go for the gold. Let the heart swell and swim with the vastness of it. Moon is waning and we are turning our attention/intention inward now naturally. Tend to the inner senses and cultivate presence with your own fragility as we become fully empty. Now is a good time to start self tracking. Use the theme of letting go, releasing and emptiness for your personal inquiry. Join me for my new Moon online celebration where I will be sharing some creative rituals for this new Moon. All who join will be entered to win some new Moon gifts! Moon moves to Mrigashirsha nakshatra at 21:11 CDT. Wednesday, July 23rd Moon transits Mrigashirsha nakshatra and moves into Gemini at 10:15 am CDT joining Venus and Mercury there. Chandra (the Sanskrit name for the Moon) rules Mrigashirsha as well as the deity Soma, which is another name for the Moon personified. The planetary ruler here is Mars who connects to all earth and grounding matters, like soil and homes. It is the plants of the earth that offer us Soma, through their divine nectar, saps and juiciness. It is the Moon that fills the plants with sap. Thus the connections between Mars, Moon and Soma. Mrigashirsha is symbolic of growth, ojas, procreative powers and creative acts that give nourishment. Through foods, creative expression, with movement and change, as well as poignant action steps, seek nourishment today. Invite in Soma, the nectar of life and let the sap of life nourish and support you. Mercury moves into the latter half of Gemini and into Punarvasu nakshatra at 9:24 am CDT, inviting in another layer of nourishment with Aditi, the mother of Oneness and all goodness. She helps us expand, find nourishment through wisdom and acquire knowledge through experience. In the coming days, allow Aditi to nourish your mental body, to invite in awareness through life experiences, and let this wisdom nourish your actions, choices and direction. Moon moves to Ardra nakshatra at 23:24 CDT. Need some extra guidance and clarity? Schedule a session with me. Thursday, July 24th Moon travels through Ardra nakshatra today and enlivens Rudra, the storm god, and the planet Rahu. Rudra is powerful- whether this power is used for change, movement and momentum or emotional upheaval and chaos, the essential element of his nature is destruction. Destruction is a necessary component of change. We must deconstruct before we can reconstruct, or construct anything for that matter. He is a vital part of our change process and helps us with our confrontation process as well. It is in this part of the change process that we usually get angry or have a strong emotional expression. This is when you know that you are onto something big- a big change. The bigger the emotion, the bigger the change. Be sure to use a three level check in today at least once in order to clearly identify the felt senses. Additionally, Jupiter and Sun are in exact degrees today, a very tight combustion (solar burn). The guru, teacher, is getting burned by the source of light, Sun. This can make for a "hot seat" which can be uncomfortable to say the least. Look for agitation and anger and inquire about where these emotions are coming from within you. What is the underlying need? On the other hand, this combination can be highly activating for teaching, sharing wisdom, insights and jyoti (light). Take an action step toward today with your gifts; sharing, offering, giving. Give gratitude to soften the overly activating energy of this combination. Let the emotional body have its way with you today. Moon in Gemini with Mercury and Venus, while Venus is simultaneously in Ardra as well, insures that relationships may be the focus of our emotional upheavals. We also have the opportunity to use creative resources and tools to maximize our awareness and the change factor. Take your emotions into painting, drawing, writing, dancing and sounding. Do not cut and paste over your feelings today or suppress them. They will only come out later down the road in more destructive ways. Use your feelings with intelligence today. Deconstruct, reconstruct, with awareness. Are you joining me for my new Moon celebration online and my new Moon workshop? Friday, July 25th Moon moves to Punarvasu nakshatra at 1:54 am CDT enlivening Aditi and Jupiter and offering us each a taste of expansion; the essence of experiential awareness if we choose to open and extend ourselves to it. The "mother of all goodness" brings with her a sense of universal oneness and our interconnectedness. Notice if there are moments in your day where this offering arrives. Moon moves into the 15th tithi, the final waning Moon phase, at 15:27 CDT, inviting in an empty cup. Are you joining me for my new Moon celebration online and my new Moon workshop? As Moon moves into its own sign of Cancer at 21:56 CDT, the senses shift as does our felt sense. Here, the Moon joins exalted Jupiter and Sun and receives drishti (gaze) from Saturn and Ketu. This combination could bring about mental/emotional exhaustion and a sense of "overdoing it". Be mindful through the weekend of when your emotional body tells you to stop, slow down, change directions, or make a shift somehow. Saturday, July 26th Moon is in its own sign of Cancer with Sun, and exalted Jupiter here as well. All receive drishti (gaze) from Saturn and Ketu. Moon moves into Pushya nakshatra at 4:38 am CDT. Be sure to join me for my new Moon workshop today at 12:00 CDT. Moon crosses over exalted Jupiter and conjoins Sun as it fully empties its light in the 15th and final tithi (Moon phase). New Moon is today in Cancer at 17:41 CDT while in Pushya nakshatra. Sun, Moon and exalted Jupiter are all in Pushya, the nourishing star at this time. This is a profoundly symbolic cosmic expression of what we are moving towards in the coming waxing cycle. The coming weeks offer a theme of finding increased nourishment. Knowing what this is, what it feels like, and how we cultivate its presence within ourselves and our lives is worthy of our attention and intention. Perhaps nourishment arrives with knowledge and wisdom, comforts and support, kindness and gratitude, increased synchronization of Nature and her rhythms. Perhaps it comes with the gentleness of the breath and taking in life more easefully. Take note of what you are opening to and the many ways and means that offer you nourishment and fulfillment in the coming cycle. What are you filling your cup with? What are you inviting into your being, into your life? Let the awareness of vitality and nourishment be your guide. Trust your emotional body to be your compass, your guide. Sunday, July 27th Mars moves into Swati nakshatra at 6:01 am CDT. Rahu and Vayu, the wind god, invite in a sense of urgency, movement and momentum. Don't get lost in the forced agenda of this combination. Mars is still conjunct exalted Saturn and it's important to head to his messages and desires for slow and steady action. Mars and Vayu have needs of swiftness and quickness. This can intensify frustrations, agitations and anger and cause us to act in imbalanced ways. If you notice yourself rushing, forcing, pushing for results, consider this your warning. It's a waste of your energy and will cause greater issues in the long run. Take action, but let Saturn lead the way with stability, focus, sustainability, timeliness and deep surrender. Moon moves into Ashlesha nakshatra at 7:32 am CDT, enlivening Sarpa and Mercury. Serpent energy slides into our lives today and is evoked through Nature. How can Sarpa offer some awakening and evoke our inner treasures? The serpent energy invites in transformation, awakening and change. The dark side of Sarpa is illusions and deceptions, very Rahu like shadows. We have some options though in how we use our serpent energy, and what we are evoking, invoking and inviting in. How do you want to use your serpent energy today? Mercury moves to the edge of its own sign Gemini and is poised for change, pushing into Cancer tomorrow, where it will join exalted Jupiter and Sun there. As Mercury moves to the edge of Gemini, the portal opens, inviting in a rare opportunity to unite mental body and emotional body. Be sure to take time to harvest this potential and listen carefully. What can be accomplished when mind and emotions unite and find a sense of harmony? Need some extra guidance and clarity? Schedule a session with me. Plan your week in tune with Nature. Never miss my Moon Mind Calendar. Sign up for my newsletter. And if you like this post, please share it! Moon is waxing this week and transits through Cancer, Leo, Virgo and into Libra. The intensity of the changing planets builds. Rahu and Ketu are sandhi as they prepare to move signs on the 12th. Mercury is sandhi and retrograde (until the 1st) and at the edge of Gemini most of the week. Saturn is retrograde in his sign of exaltation (Libra), and is thus debilitated. The cushion comes from exalted Jupiter and Venus in its own sign of Taurus. Regardless, use precaution this week. Next week will come with its own set of warnings as Rahu and Mars conjunct. For now, be mindful of the emotional impact the nodes can have on us, as well as the delicate states of Mercury (mental body) and Saturn (physical body). Mind your mental body and your physical body this week and attend to anger, rigidity and over thinking.
Monday, June 30th Moon transits its own sign of Cancer with exalted Jupiter. Both receive gaze from a compromised Saturn. Moon moves into Ashlesha nakshatra at 1:18 am CDT. Sarpa and Mercury rule this nakshatra and activate themes of deception, illusion and overconfidence as serpent energy is apt to do. Sarpa is a small snake and connected to the north node, Rahu as a result of his serpent energy indicates. There is also a connection to wisdom (of the occult variety) and mysticism through Sarpa which can bring awakenings. Snakes medicine is all about transformation and regeneration. Today can offer a spectrum of possibilities from inner transformation and awakening to worldly advancement and changes. There may be illusions or delusions working their charms on us, so be mindful of what you are feeding your serpent self; your cravings and desires. Mental body will be trying to run the show today and spinning his usual stories of mayhem on auto pilot. Use this to inform your process, but don't let it run the show and drag you through the mud. Do a three level check in to see where you are in mind, body and emotions. Then take it into a poem or song. Let your words work some magic on you. Tuesday, July 1st Moon moves to Leo and into Magha nakshatra at 4:18 am CDT. Pitr and Ketu enliven at this time and bring about a day of change and transformation. Mercury goes direct at 7:46 am CDT. We may wake up feeling ready to take forward action- at least mentally. Clean up phase is complete for this round of Mercury retrograde and the mind starts thinking in a more linear way now. This may bring greater clarity to our life process and allow us to think more clearly about progress rather than all the steps we are retracing. Sometimes this can help us see where we need to get clearer and more focused with our personal agendas. However, Mercury is at the very edge of its own sign, Gemini, right now. We get the taste of mind in a harmonious sign, yet "weak" and in the gap simultaneously. This may make the clarity we get be very subtle and intuitive instead so listen up for the gentle messages that come. If you miss them, don't worry, they will get much louder in the coming weeks. But try to catch the memos before they start shouting. Read more about sandhi planets here. Today has a quick, fast and fierce kind of feel to it. Overwhelm or calamity may set in as a result. Make sure you are taking time to breathe and attend to your physical needs as our overdrive mechanisms might be kicking up. Anger and outbursts, eruptions and tantrums, are likely inside and out so listen carefully to the underlying messages. What is the need that is not being attended to? What are the changes in you that must be made to create less friction? Action abounds right now with the planets. Let this influence you and your awareness about change and transformation. Need some guidance and clarity? Schedule a session with me. Wednesday, July 2nd Moon moves to PurvaPhalguni at 7:20 am CDT. Bhaga and Venus rule the day. Bhaga brings us resources as he's an Aditya, and can offer a sense of wealth and happiness. Changes continue today, but we start to see and feel the silver lining. Let expansion be your guide and fill the spaces in your life with possibility and purpose. Grow to your edges and let nourishment support you. Let fluidity be a reminder and soften into your edges (especially from the mental body). Dream, day dream, and think big. Use watercolors to paint your dreams into reality. Appease the mental body by making a list of your action steps in the coming weeks and how they get you to the next big goal. You don't have to have it all figured out to take some steps forward. Plan your week in tune with Nature. Never miss my Moon Mind Calendar. Sign up for my newsletter. Thursday, July 3rd Moon moves to UttaraPhalguni at 10:12 am CDT. Sun and Aryaman help us find sustenance and endurance today. Think in terms of the big picture and the long haul in order to maximize your visions for expansion. Think big, but make sure you are thinking sustainably. What are the pieces that need to be put into place in order for your visions to take root? Get practical and be wise about your success. If you want to re-create your life, today's the day to plant some seeds of desire. Water them with clear actions and doable time frames. Ask for support and help from trustworthy resources and set up a cheer leading squad for encouragement along the way. The details might get more clear after 16:52 CDT, once Moon moves into Virgo and joins Mars there. “If you look the right way, you can see that the whole world is a garden.” - Frances Hodgson Burnett Friday, July 4th Exalted Jupiter moves into Pushya nakshatra at 8:11 am CDT. Let the nourishment begin! We may feel this as a turning point in our exalted Jupiter experience. Read the details in my exalted Jupiter article, part 2. Moon transits Virgo with Mars and moves into Hasta nakshatra at 12:42 CDT. Heat, action, fire and agendas enliven. Feeling it yet? The warrior energy of Mars is not a thinker, he's a doer. Are you being led astray today by auto pilot or are you just working efficiently and effectively? Take ample breaks. Hit the pause button and breath, stretch and get some fresh air. Savitr will allow us to experience some awakening today, but we must create room for it to arrive. In your quiet moments, repeat Gayatri mantra for assistance. Oṃ bhūr bhuvaḥ svaḥ tát savitúr váreṇ(i)yaṃ bhárgo devásya dhīmahi dhíyo yó naḥ pracodáyāt Saturday, July 5th Moon stays in Hasta the majority of the day, but nears Mars in the process. Yesterday's reminders still hold true, however the silence of Saturday (Saturn) may help us get to the core of the matter for effectively and efficiently. Hit pause intentionally today and cultivate some inner awareness with your emotions and actions. Let your foot off the gas and put it in neutral. Not feeling the ease? Consciously remove pieces off your plate and lighten your load. Heat, both inner and outer, is maximized as Moon and Mars conjoin, so take this into consideration as emotions intensify. Find moments to do a three level check in and use them for your creative process. If you need extra support with your action steps, use my Mars Legs/Feet MP3 for insights and harvesting. Moon moves into Chitra nakshatra at 14:39 CDT as it nears Mars. Chitra is ruled by Vishvakarma and Mars, so activation, action, and passion are enlivened on several levels as a result. Vishvakarma is the divine architect, "author of a thousand arts", and is associated with work and production. He is an Aditya and thus connected to resources and assistance. Vishvakarma is an incarnation of Lord Brahma, so his innate creativity is clearly connected to his offerings. This might be a good day to get busy and stay out of the frying pot! Finish up loose ends, projects that have been incomplete for weeks or months and find closure through production and creation processes. Nothing feels more gratifying than completing a task! If you are feeling particularly angry or agitated, take this into your work. See if you can't "work through it" on some level. Moon and Mars in exact conjunction at 20:29 CDT. Sun moves to Punarvasu nakshatra at 23:13 CDT. Aditi (mother of Oneness and all good) may offer a smoothing of any ruffled feathers during the previous days. As Sun moves into this nakshatra, the coming days will offer a sweeter harvesting of our emotional upheavals- giving purpose, power and poignancy to the process. Stay with it. Need some guidance and clarity? Schedule a session with me. Sunday, July 6th Moon moves to Libra at 3:21 am CDT offering yet another layer of peace and nurturing. Libra is the peace maker in many senses- offering us balance and the ability to "weigh and measure" our options. At it's best, Libra offers us balance and greater awareness in the process. At its worst, it offers confusion, indecisiveness or excessive fakery and pretending. Moon crosses sandhi Rahu here while most of us will still be sleeping (around 4am CDT) which may prevent our "eclipsed" natures to derail us. (Those on the other side of the world, take note.) However, Rahu and Saturn are still in Libra for another eight days, which means stormy weather, movement and changes of the Rudra variety are still applicable. Let the winds blow around you, while being present to your inner compass. Moon moves to Swati nakshatra at 15:53 CDT and the winds intensify. Vayu and Rahu pick up the pace and increase themes of momentum, change, movement and Vata imbalances. Make sure you attend to your "inner winds", or prana today. Get outside and move the body in order to get out of the mental body turmoil, spin and overwhelm. Get embodied. The tendency is to be disconnected from emotions during Swati nakshatra. Are you cutting and pasting over them? Emotional bypassing? Be sure to create room for the emotions and invite them in to your awareness today. Stay connected with a three level check in. Then use it for your movement practice by taking this into dance and somatic navigation. My Mars Legs/Feet MP3 is a great resource for this. Plan your week in tune with Nature.

The hype around Jupiter's transit is growing. There is much buzz, as there should be. Jupiter, the planet of abundance, wisdom, expansion and teaching is moving to its favorite sign, Cancer, for the next twelve months. Many are declaring this is a powerful and positive year for all. And while I agree that the trend and overall feeling of this transit will be expansive, I temper my predictions. The benevolence of Jupiter is well known, but he's not a lovely supportive gentleman to everyone, and we must contend with the other transits effecting him simultaneously. It will in fact be a mixed bag, a year with some ups and downs as always. What the planets and their ever changing dance reminds us is that nothing in life is all good, nor all bad. There's always a bit of both. This is the universe maintaining its balance and giving us ample opportunity for personal growth. When we expand too much, we must counter this with contracting. When we contract too much, we must learn to expand more. This dance of open and close is wrapped up in the nature of Cancer, fourth house matters, the heart and breath- our life force. As Jupiter, the expansive planet, moves into Cancer, he offers us an opportunity to experience an increase in this expansive quality, whether it's with heart, emotions, home matters, breath or other fourth house, Cancer related issues. In other words, it will be an expansive year emotionally and it can offer more comfort and nourishment to many of us. It will also teaching quite clearly about our emotions and how to dance with them more effectively. This expansive energy is tempered at times by aspects from Saturn (the planet of contraction, of slow growth, of grief and suffering). This aspect from Saturn asks us to cultivate a new relationship with our sense of balance, to find a new set-point for ourselves. Saturn, for better or for worse, always has our best interests in mind, even if it doesn't feel like it. If we pay attention to his ways, we can flow more smoothly in our lives. He will be protecting us from expanding too quickly or too much, so pay attention. Saturn is timing and timing is everything. Jupiter moves into Cancer on June 18th, 2014 at 20:23 CDT. It will take a little over 12 months for him to move through this Cancer; he moves to Leo on July 13th of 2015. While in Cancer, Jupiter will experience openings and closings, forward motion and backward motion, and move through three different nakshatras. These will of course be occurring with other planetary transits going on and will interact with our own unique charts in a variety of ways. Here's the breakdown: When Jupiter moves to Cancer on June 18th, he receives gaze (drishti) from a retrograde Saturn still transiting its sign of exaltation, Libra (in the Jaimini jyotish system, Saturn is considered debilitated as a result). Here in Cancer, Jupiter will still be in Punarvasu nakshatra, ruled by Aditi, the mother of all goodness, who provides us with an understanding of unification and universal awareness. This nakshatra is also ruled by the planet Jupiter, so we get the sense of expansion here. And yet a weak Saturn is giving his scrutiny and watchful gaze to Jupiter as he moves into his "happy place". The result? We may not be feeling as joyful and expansive as we would like. We will likely be re-tracing foundational steps still. Steps that are less about fun and opening to the "new" and more about what we "should" be doing, what is asked of us, and what our relationships are asking of us. This brings some guaranteed pressures and frustrations that will be the impetus for greater changes in the coming months. On 7.04.14, Jupiter moves to Pushya nakshatra. This is where we really begin to explore the dynamics of expand/contract. (Use my Exalted Jupiter workshop in order to learn more about this dynamic). Pushya is ruled by both Brihaspati (another name for Jupiter, personified) and the planet Saturn. He is connected to nourishment and support, knowledge and wisdom so expect this to be a turning point in your Exalted Jupiter transit experience. However, Jupiter will still be receiving drishti from a compromised Saturn at this time, yet the pressure from Saturn's gaze lightens and gets more forward momentum once Saturn goes direct on 7.20. His watchful gaze is present nonetheless, but we may begin to feel more hope for the future, more possibility and a greater sense of purpose when Saturn goes direct. Rahu and Ketu Change Signs Another lift might be felt as a result of Rahu and Ketu changing into Virgo and Pisces respectively on July 12th. Rahu getting out of Saturn's way, and out of Libra altogether, will lesson pressure, intensity and the stormy weather syndrome that has been plaguing so many of us as a result of the intense Rudra energy. Look for my Rahu/Ketu article coming out soon. From these new placements of Jupiter, Rahu and Ketu, new gazes are given. Jupiter will gaze at Ketu and Ketu will gaze back to him (though technically Ketu can not give drishti because he has no head, I have found Ketu's influence of gaze to give substantial effects). Ketu is a "planet" of moksha, liberation, cutting our attachments and asking us to let go of what we are holding on to. Jupiter is a planet of wisdom, the guru, or teacher, and asks us to expand our ideas and he pushes us towards growth. Jupiter will be giving his gaze to Ketu in Pisces, a sign that he rules, so we will be letting go, finding endings and cutting chords with wisdom and growth in mind. Letting go of relationships, and our attachments to them, will be a central theme. Many of us may feel like we have awoken from a great slumber during the coming months as we suddenly realize where we are overly attached, clinging, not clear with boundaries and needs, and possibly giving too much to others while neglecting ourselves. There is nourishment here, but we must work to get the comfort and support. Ketu strips away the veils of our illusion, but at least Jupiter's gaze insures that we can receive some awareness (and some level of comfort in that awareness) as a result. When Jupiter moves to Ashlesha nakshatra on 9.03, our serpent energy is enlivened as well as the planet Mercury. Mercury will be exalted in Virgo at this time and Rahu will be there as well. Some may feel mental confusion and overwhelm during the greater part of September, others will benefit from monetary wealth and support as well as a bit more notoriety. We all may be feeling some or all of these things. Tending to the mental body at this time will be paramount as it will likely be out of control and imbalanced. Saturn Moves to Scorpio As Saturn moves into Scorpio on 11.02, his drishti on Jupiter ends and the roles reverse; Jupiter gets to give his gaze to Saturn now. Finally, we may begin to take a long, deep breath, expand and grow with more leaps and bounds. A sense of opening may be felt, some new shift and guaranteed changes are here for each of us. The movement of Saturn into Scorpio is a powerful transit in and of itself, and will carry with it a deeply transformational current of change. Change that come from our depths; a new structure that removes our masks, our shadows, our vulnerabilities. Scorpio is the ultimate sign known for darkness, depth, mystery and deaths of all kind. You can read more about Scorpio and the 8th house in my How to Love a Scorpio article. Scorpio, however, is the sign that Moon is debilitated in and so we must realize that part of the structure, or construction/deconstruction, taking place for the 2.5 years of this next transit, will be centered around the emotions. Since Jupiter will be transiting the seat of emotions (Cancer), expect emotional work to be enlivened for the rest of the Jupiter transit as a result of Saturn's new home. This is perhaps where our greatest emotional work of this cycle really begins and intensifies. But before you bristle, remember that Jupiter is guiding us with wisdom and support. We will get our needs met if we are truly open and receptive to it. Jupiter Goes Retrograde The openings felt in November take a turn in December. The inner emotional changes intensify as Jupiter begins his retrograde dance on 12.08. In the Jaimini system of Jyotish, an exalted planet in retrograde motion is considered debilitated and weakened. It is acting like a node (Rahu and Ketu) in its expression. Only the nodes move in reverse all the time- against the grain of the other planets. In this period from 12.08.14 to 4.08.15, we will be asked to go over old territory, old ground, re-trace old steps and patterns, find new ways of emoting, expressing and working with our hearts. The retrograde cycles always give us an opportunity to catch what we've been missing, check in for deeper inquiry, and to strengthen our ability to make more lasting changes within our behaviors. These "clean up" cycles are thus necessary and vital for greater, and more powerful, movement forward. A weakened, debilitated Jupiter, however, will have effects on our spirits. The expansion energy will be tested once again, but in a different way. Retrograde Jupiter will call upon us to re-evaluate our alignments, our desires, our push to expand. It is an opportunity to re-align with our core purpose, what drives us and aligns more holistically with our soul's calling. If you've let the expansion energy get the best of you, to override your inner wisdom, this will be the time of change you will need to re-center. This debilitation of Jupiter will come during winter, the silent season in the Northern Hemisphere, and can be a time of moving inward more consciously. The final three weeks of Jupiter's retrograde dance will include a retrograde Saturn simultaneously. Talk about a time of inner reflection and finding new ways of being, new patterns, and new structures within our existence! For most of us, this time period will ask us to do some very intense work on our physical and emotional bodies simultaneously. Staying grounded and getting embodied will be absolutely crucial. Make sure to check in with me for a virtual workshop at this time. Jupiter's retrograde dance will be entirely within Ashlesha nakshatra. As mentioned above, this enlivens serpent energy, Sarpa, as well as Mercury (mental body). We are guaranteed a powerful inner dance with the mental body during this time frame, one that helps us to actively and consciously work on our serpent energy- the pieces that are gripping us. Serpent energy can be connected to cravings, insatiable worldly appetites, illusions of all kinds, deceptions, and the trappings of Rahu. Sarpa can help us work on our addictions, our bad habits ingrained in our minds, and removal of toxicity. This may be a good cycle to get assistance from a shaman or healing modalities that can help remove demons. Use the debilitation of Jupiter to work diligently on the shadowed mind and mental body themes that are your defaults, your crutch. This will be a time where we get to re-work the mind and unravel some shadowed perceptions. Once Jupiter goes direct on 4.08, he finishes out his Cancer cycle in a forward moving fashion. The final three and half months of this year long transit are in Ashlesha nakshatra. The themes central to Sarpa, Mercury and the mental body carry us through to the end of Jupiter's exaltation. Overall, this Jupiter cycle through Cancer is about working through our emotional limitations. Are we resisting our emotional work? Bypassing the depth of our emotions? Keeping our heart closed or too open and vulnerable? What are we opening to and closing to? These universal themes will be enlivened for each of us in very unique ways depending on our natal charts and individual mythologies. Working with creativity, embodiment and healing modalities that offer a spectrum of guidance will be most effective. Seek out high levels of knowledge and wisdom this year, it will be ripe and ready to eat, and likely you will realize you are ravenous for it! Life Themes for Exalted Jupiter So what are these themes that may show up for you based on your jyotish rising sign? Here's a rundown by sign of the messages, issues and areas of life that will be enlivened during this Exalted Jupiter in Cancer transit. *These tendencies are based on your Vedic rising sign. You can also check your Moon and Sun signs for further insight. Do the same with your Navamsa signs for further clarity. Do not use these horoscopes with your “Western Sign” as there is likely no correlation. These horoscopes are meant to be used as a broad overview of the current transits and obviously do not address the specifics of an individual’s unique chart. Aries: Heart and home matters swell and find a new rhythm. Tend to emotions and feelings, self expression and issues with loss, endings and letting go. Moksha and liberation are central themes, while the necessity of looking into the past, old wounds, and your hidden realms, are paramount. Relationships play a central role for you in this Jupiter cycle and they also play a crucial role in your emotional work. Taurus: It will be a year of increased courage and creativity. Ask for support and communicate effectively. Tend to the needs of your parents if necessary and prepare for greater wisdom and knowledge to come from teachers, gurus and guides. Relationships in general will be showing you a lot about your Self, so be available for the hidden messages. Friendships, partners and work connections will help you unravel parts of your self that you've been neglecting and denying. Welcome in the dark and light. Gemini: Self expression is a strong theme for the coming year. Speak, share and don't hold back. Communicate what you need effectively, share your emotions, get clear on boundaries. Nourish your self and absorb the nutrients coming to you. Watch your diet and avoid excess food, sweets, dairy. Your emotional work directly impacts how far you get ahead in this cycle. Don't bypass the pain, use it effectively to inform your process. Cancer: Self awareness and expansion of what you see possible for your Self is a central theme. Expand your hopes and dreams and go for increased knowledge and wisdom. Work with your child-like senses and passions. Grow in your Self by lightening your load. Do so by releasing your attachments- especially regarding relationships. This comes with diligently tending to your emotional work and working with themes of loneliness and letting go. How much are you willing to transform? Leo: Endings, letting go, loss and seclusion are themes for your coming year. Digesting and assimilating are part of the releasing process. Tend to heart and emotions and the resistance to feeling pain, sorrow and suffering. Negotiate boundaries effectively and look into shadows and the portal of the past to help you unravel your relationship with death and dying. This is a year of multiple transformations. Virgo: Friends help support you and bring gains. Navigate relationships carefully so that you get your needs met. Conscious attention/intention on self expression and communication will help you build courage and greater support. Get romantic, sensual, playful and child-like. Digest, nourish and assimilate vital nutrients, knowledge and information in order to empower your self. Let relationships comfort and support you. Work on themes that surface around death and letting go. Libra: Career takes center stage for you and more possibility arrives as a result. Income and comforts seem to wax and wane, though trust you are finding a new balance with how to sustain your self, while finding a new sense of your support. Likely you will notice your emotions directly impact your income, so it will behoove you to pay attention to your emotional needs. Listen to your gut, cut out bad habits, and step into a service role. Scorpio: Teach, share, advise and listen to the wisdom that surrounds you. Gurus, teachers and guides usher you forward. Grow in passion, child-like wisdom and playfulness. Get romantic and explore your sensuality. Expand what is possible for your self and share your expansiveness with others. Tend to your father. Your emotional work, as always, is central to the depth of your harvesting. Ride the waves. Sagittarius: Transformations are the central theme for this cycle. Losses, letting go, endings and death, bring vital information for your journey. The best way to receive the comfort you need will be to get very clear on what nourishes and supports you. Consciously being present to your emotions, pains and struggles, without negating them or covering them up, is crucial for your liberation process. Get good at asking for help when you need it. Capricorn: Relationships dominate your focus and attention. Who and what is getting your time and energy? Boundaries are an important part of this conversation so that you aren't giving your self away unconsciously. Teach, share and advise and be creative and courageous in your offerings. Friend dynamics are a part of your relationship work. You will be learning a lot from them so pay attention. Don't forget self care and tending to your inner needs. Aquarius: Digestion and assimilation are crucial themes for your growth process this year. Nourish and absorb vital nutrients. Let go of bad habits and negative mental/emotional triggers- many of which are connected to losses and painful experiences of letting go from the past. Share your growth and depth with others. Heal and be healed. Give and receive comfort, nourishment and support. Personal needs and boundaries should be negotiated constantly. Pisces: Passion and sensuality bring a wealth of information. Use child-like wonder for seeing your world in a new way. Seek new knowledge and wisdom through education, teachers, gurus and guides. Your expansion and personal growth is inevitable, but don't get lazy and lackadaisical. Work with children and welcome them into your life. Explore loss and letting go, endings and shadow realms, in order for a deeper educational experience.
