The wind changes direction and the sailor must plot a new course.
Stay sensitive to fresh opportunities, breakthrough ideas, changing relationships. A sailor in a small boat must stay alert and become comfortable with movement and speed. This is a great way to respond at this Full Moon. Allow the swell of the waves. Allow for movement. As you loosen up your expectations and open your mind you may discover a fresh perspective.
Have you ever stood in the surf and felt as if you were going to be pushed over by the waves, but then found that if you dipped down under the surface you could avoid feeling swept away?
The deeper you go, the more control you have.
The more that you resist intuition, dreaminess and the Unknown, the more overwhelming it becomes.
My metaphor for this Full Moon is …
Digging up the garden to plant a late summer crop.
The first attempt had its value. Those plants had their day in the sun. It might seem late but it’s possible to start over. Say goodbye to what was birthed, what died, what was eaten and the opportunities that were lost. Now it’s time to let go of your ego, cut the stalks down to the roots and start a new crop.
Since April, Saturn has been conjunct the South Node and we’ve been reviewing our past choices. We’ve been retracing our steps. All of this reevaluation has been causing us to change our minds.
Regret.
Realignment.
In some cases we’ve been reminded of joyous pursuits that we left behind in the past. In other cases we’ve gone back to a fork in the road that we took and toyed with what would have happened if we’d taken the other path.
I’ve noticed some people have let go of compulsions or addictions that were no longer serving.
So what does this have to do with today’s Full Moon?
The Moon and Neptune in Pisces, Saturn, Pluto and the South Node in Capricorn, Sun and Mars in Virgo, and the North Node in Cancer are ALL forming what is called a Mystic Rectangle at this Full Moon.
A Mystic Rectangle is a complicated and misunderstood pattern that stretches us like a gymnast.
A gymnast pushes past pain and uses her natural flexibility to perform incredible movements. This aspect pattern is like that. You have to push yourself through and around pain. If you do so with a keen awareness of your limitations and a faithful vision of your potential, you’ll be somersaulting through the air in no time.
All summer long, we’ve been looking over our shoulders.
What happened, how did we get here? What are we missing?
This Full Moon asks us to retrain our gaze forward. Take what you’ve learned and somersault into the mature emotional wisdom of the Pisces Full Moon.
Everything matters and nothing matters.
It’s okay if you’ve been retracing your steps. But now it’s time for triple front somersault. To make that leap you have to intuitively trust that your training will pay off. You have to have faith in yourself and in your foundation.
Get over all of the self-critique and soar forward. Stop criticizing others while you’re at it. We’re all just doing the best we can.
Pisces energy at its best is pure compassion and spiritual enlightenment.
This Full Moon Mystic Rectangle aspect pattern alchemizes all of the hard work of the summer and gives us an opportunity to shift into transcendence. The same way a gymnast makes complicated maneuvers look effortless.

On Tuesday, July 16th there is a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse at 24 degrees Capricorn. This moment holds the tension of opposition between the Sun, Venus and the North Node in Cancer and the Moon, Pluto and Saturn and the South Node in Capricorn. Whenever the Nodal Axis lines up with a Full or New Moon, we have an eclipse.
On Monday June 17th at 4:31 am ET there is a Full Moon in Sagittarius. Sagittarius is the sign of Truth with a capital "T". The archer shoots an arrow toward a higher vision for humanity. And this Full Moon is sidled up next to Jupiter — the ruling planet of Sagittarius. That fact doubles down on the symbolism of "Truth". What is your philosophy? What does your humanity represent for you at this time? Where are you headed? Are you optimistic enough to believe that you can get there?
Rose bushes tantalize with sweet smells and bright colors. Underneath the surface are an army of bloodthirsty thorns.
Visualize this lunation as if it represents the diverse ecosystem of a rose bush in bloom. Many pathways available, many roses to be smelled, many insects and small animals to encounter. There’s a headiness as the perfume intoxicates and a pain that lingers when you are pricked. You can have the best time revealing in the beauty or you can get stuck in the thorns.
On March 20, we have the first of two Libra Full Moons in 2019. It occurs as the gate opens to Aries season and we step into an astrological New Year with the Vernal Equinox. This Full Moon is taking you on a solo hike. You are blazing your trail, healing your wounds, working with your inner rebel and seeking mental clarity and balance.
Zoom way in and visualize the reverberation of a single harp string. Watch as it undulates, chaotic yet controlled. Science has discovered that the harp has healing qualities, bestowing upon the musician a healthier nervous system and curing countless mental and physical ailments. But no one knows why it works.
Lace up your shoes and get ready to play a game. Grab your bowling ball and hurl it down the lane. It’s time take aim. You’ll set up the pins and you’ll knock them down. How the game is played depends on your exuberance, focus and finesse.
On Monday at 12:17am EST, the skies light up with a Full Moon total lunar eclipse in the sign of Leo. There’s a lot going on at this Full Moon. Most importantly, we get ready to hit the refresh button, thanks to this eclipse.
...The Taurus Full Moon and it’s Message
Peeling an orange.
We are working to get to the sweet fruit that is inside. There is a bitter rind. We must keep peeling. Keep working. Keep taking off the layers to get closer to the truth. Keep sustaining ourselves with sweetness. Keep nurturing. Keep taking care of our bodies, and keep diving deep into our emotions...
PISCES FULL MOON LUAR ECLIPSE :: OVERVIEW
A whisper. A quiet murmur. Full Moons are usually loud and all fired up with the light of the Sun. Yet this Full Moon is a quiet and gentle offering that echoes through the mist. The whisper comes from your intuition. It says: look more closely, listen more closely, slow down, grow quiet. Let yourself dissolve...
