Hi
everyone!
Time to come out of the old comfort zone and to embrace a bigger
world!
We’re coming home...no more
hiding in your shell, in your ‘shades’!
Welcome to the Full Moon in Cancer opposite the
Capricorn Sun!
Welcome home everyone...home to ourselves, our place
on earth and in the cosmos!
Cancer rules the home and being at home with oneself
and one’s family, whatever is your place of belonging. So where do you feel at
home? Time for some insight!
The bigger picture: Our home...the earth
and the cosmos!
What a magnificent perspective we get when we see the
earth and moon from space!
Like Dorothy going to the Land of Oz and the Emerald
City, we gain a fresh perspective of Planet Earth with her moon set within
space, within our solar system and beyond, a little piece of our galaxy. We are
cosmic beings and citizens!
With this Cancerian Full Moon, it’s worth remembering
that we are earthlings and earth dwelling but that we also inhabit a huge cosmos
of interdependent, interactive energies
It seems logical to me that whatever is happening out
in the cosmos is impacting on us in some way as we exist within a cosmic
ecosystem.
What’s been
happening:
The solar pole flip is now
complete!
That’s a relief! I was so addled in the mind I
forgot to put this in the last update. Nasa confirmed that it had been
completed by the end of 2013! Way to go! No more solar pole flipping for 11
more years.
Dropping your
bundle, letting go big time:
When you drop your bundle, you’re ready to
flllllyyyyyy!
Recalibrated
and reconfigured:
Venus, Mercury and Mars working on heart, mind and
body!
Well, here we are post New Year after quite a time of
powerful change! The Capricorn planetary dominance has been quietly demanding
as we’re being shifted through a cleansing and purification which seemed quite
different to the heavy Scorpio energies of last October/November. Nonetheless,
we may well have been challenged to face a few home truths and to let go of the
denials and deceptions of the past.
Mercury in Capricorn:
From Christmas until
12th January!
Mind and beliefs deconstructed!
Since Christmas when Mercury moved into Capricorn,
our mind’s been deconstructed with old beliefs, thoughts and deeply ingrained
mental patterns being released from the bondage and shackles of our earthly
karma. If you couldn’t think clearly and felt foggy in the mind...say no more.
Venus retrograde in Capricorn: Hearts are
coming into the truth of love! Feeling the pain, letting it
go!
Since 22nd December, this retrograde experience is
taking us back through old experiences in relationships, old hurts, pain, wounds
which are buried in the body, again connected to our earthly memories.
What’s of greatest value to you? How do you
value yourself?
Venus retrograding in Cancer has challenged us to
really review our innermost values and to align our innermost thoughts and
belief systems with our absolute truth, our personal strength and authority and
to align with our place on planet earth and her evolutionary
process.
House cleaning the mind and heart:
Emptying out of everything to find the most valuable!
Capricorn energy has been calling us to reclaim the
shadow parts of ourselves which are our powerhouse of strength and personal
authority on earth as well as releasing those shadow selves which are not
aligned with the truth of our authentic self.
Letting go of the irrelevant, the burdensome energies
of habitual and addictive behaviours!
Bringing the hidden gems of ourselves into the light
and out of the shadows!
Mastery calls, so call out your inner mastery and
bring the light forward!
Physical regeneration
and rebalancing: Mars in Libra
Dr Who’s regenerations as well as the
‘aliens’ in Cocoon are perfect images for us all!
Mars in Libra:
The ‘head’ and body realignment and
balancing is ongoing for a while yet
Just a reminder that our bodies are being
reworked at the physical level so as the light of regeneration comes in, we
experience twinges, aches and pains as past energies and memories are released
from our physical cells. We need to maintain a positive focus on the changes we
are undergoing and keep bringing the light right into the physical
body.
Fill the head with light then bring through the remainder of the
body. Imagine every cell in the body filling with golden alchemical light. Of course, use other colour if so guided.
But remember, the golden light is the light of alchemical transmutation.
This is our year to shine...from the inside out!
12th
January: Mercury moved into Aquarius at 8.35 am AEDT...I can think clearly
now!
Art: ‘Where heavens meet’ by Rassouli
Mercury has just moved out of Capricorn into Aquarius until 31st
January. Make the most of this mentally uplifting combination!
Mercury likes to fly and in Capricorn, he’s been earthbound, wings
clipped, feeling laden down by earthly concerns, anxiety, irritation,
frustration...maybe even some worry in there!
Mercury is our mind, our communication and clarity.
Since Christmas: Mind cleansing and purification! Lost
your mind???
We've been getting a bit of mind clearing and purification since
Christmas when Mercury moved into Capricorn. Is that
why I've been addled and heavy in the head? Big head clearing has been
happening...colds, flu, sinus and headaches etc. Hangovers? for sure! All part
of the mind makeover.
While
Venus has been retreading old pathways of healing the heart, renewing and
rediscovering true value of the self and the true values for our spirit, the
mind/Mercury was taken out of the way, removed from the equation, so we could
really feel our heart, our emotions and discover our heart’s desire without the
mind’s interference.
It’s been a challenging time as our minds
were grounded for repairs and renewal.
We were emptied out...it wasn’t just Christmas, New Year or
holidays!
Minds take flight:
Cleared ready for take
off!
Prepare to feel some relief from the mind makeover,
to feel some liberation mentally as we emerge from the Capricorn energies which
have been keeping our mind and mental faculties very much focused on the
earthly, our earthly bodies and our connection to the body of planet earth.
Freeing up from earthly
dimensions:
From one extreme to the other
...from earth into
space!
From the mundane to the cosmic!
Expect to feel lighter and
brighter in the mind and the thinking.
We'll be floating star-filled
ideas with Mercury in Aquarius, the original star trekker, at least until 31st
January!
We’re likely to get in touch with a broader perception than we’ve
been experiencing as we get the bigger picture moving away from our earthly
existence so we can see our lives ‘from a distance’.
Embrace the ‘incredible lightness of being’ lost in space and allow
the mind to roam unfettered by the mundane matters which have been a demanding
focus for the last few weeks.
What’s coming
in:
16th January: Full Moon in Cancer
at 25 degrees 58 Cancer at 3.52 pm AEDT
Full Moons call for balance:
The Sun and Moon are in opposition, both working
together calling us to the centre of the fulcrum, calling us to acknowledge the
outer, active Sun energy and our inner, passive Moon energy.
Listen, receive and dream:
Insights and
information!
When the moon is at its fullness, it is at its most
powerful time of the month for illuminating the unconscious, the past, the
memories. It calls for stillness, feeling, listening, receiving. At the Full
Moon our dreams speak to us!
Emotions are full: Feel the fullness of
emotion as a guide to your heart!
The Full Moon in Cancer is ultra powerful as the moon
rules Cancer so we get a double whammy with this full moon with expanded
emotional energy.
Remaining aware of the prevailing energies:
Just a little antsy!
There’s been some antsy energies ‘out there’ as
people are working through their insecurities, irritations, conflicts and the
‘demons’ of resistance to change. At the Full Moon, these demons well up out of
nowhere in emotional outbursts and projections. Of course, we’re all in this
melting pot of emotion so we need to go easy with ourselves and others and be
aware of button pushing!
Coming to fullness: Coming to
fruition! A turning point!
Full moons always bring something to a head,
a turning point in bringing something to completion. A lot of what is
completing dates back to Christmas last year. Relationships, issues about
relationships are to the forefront, coming, going and transforming.
Clearing unfinished business:
Saturn working
positively with the Sun and Moon at the Full Moon! Transformational!
This full moon is a good one with positive energies
for clearing up lots of unfinished business with Saturn in Scorpio lending a
hand to bring a transformational energy to the full moon energies. Issues of
emotional and physical security could well be transformed in this energy. Keep
asking and surrendering to the greater forces of good, of love and of
light!
Breakthroughs at hand:
A seal breaks the
surface of the water welcoming us home to ourselves!
We’re likely to experience a breakthrough which seems
to have come effortlessly but has actually been the result of ongoing commitment
to change. This is the realisation that the change is actually happening.
Don’t worry if it doesn’t happen right on the full
moon as the effect of this will kick in as a result of the Full Moon energies.
Increased feelings of liberation are likely as the Sun moves into Aquarius on
20th and with the New Moon in Aquarius on 29th.
The hard yards put in
during this month will really show through in the next few weeks.
The Sun in Capricorn until 20th
January:
Bringing up the demons of earthly
living!
Completing the challenges!
Clearing the decks and the past history and laying the
foundation for 2014!
Reaching for the
heights:
All astrology signs carry both
the 3rd as well as higher dimensional energies. In Capricorn, we’re called to
the heights to strive to be all that we can be in our lives. This is the higher
expression of Capricorn.
The Devil Tarot
card: Facing the demons
However, 3rd dimensional
Capricorn energies can hold us hostage to the earth energies of the physical and
the mundane, to the attachment to the material world at the expense of the
evolved spiritual perspective. It’s interesting that Capricorn’s Tarot card is
‘The Devil’, representing all the earthly energies which rise up and challenge
us, bringing up deeply buried fears, doubts and insecurities.
Choosing love can bring out the demons! Capricorn energies of this month beautifully
encapsulated by the following quote:
"Sometimes we are plummeted into our darkest depths
precisely because we have elevated our ceilings on Love.
Our demons appear most ferociously when they feel
threatened by a new attitude - right before they retire like an old dog by the
fire. This
work is what I call Dreamwalking - digging into our own substrate to unearth our
limiting patterns and, in releasing
them, revealing a greater capacity for belonging and joy."

The World Tarot Card:
Completion of Saturn’s
challenges
On the other hand, the Tarot
Card for Saturn, Capricorn’s ruler, is ‘The World’, representing completion of
the challenges of life.

Tarot: http://www.stariq.com/Main/Articles/P0001903.HTM
Completing Saturn’s
challenges:
One foot in front of the other! Building the
future!
Clearing the
karmic burdens and breaking through limitations!
Capricorn helps us live on the
earth in the material world, assisting us to deal with the mundane affairs that
can bog us down at times. Capricorn is serious business, so if you’re feeling a
little flat these past weeks since New Year, keep trusting that the building
blocks of the year are being put in place by good old Saturn, Capricorn’s
ruler.
Demons beware:
We’re clearing the decks ready to get on with our path of destiny which
is urging us on this year. This year, the mountains are our constant reminder to keep reaching high, to
keep shining our brightest, to bring our clearest expression of self to the
world. Demons beware!
The
Full Moon in Cancer highlights Cancerian themes through the next two weeks until
31st January New Moon in Aquarius:
There’s no need to write extensively on the following
themes coming through for our attention. Think of the following as a checklist
for our hearts.
Nurturing, mothering, self-mothering,
emotional security:
Mother and
child reunion!
Taking care of ourselves and our loved ones by
providing the emotional nourishment we need. This positive care of self is an
expression of self-love, reinforcing and strengthening our very sense of value
and esteem. Treat yourself as though you are a little child who needs
reassurance and encouragement.
Home is where the heart is!
Follow the joy of your heart and your place in
the world will emerge!
Dorothy utilises the magic of the red shoes to take
her home to Kansas.
‘You’ve always had the power my dear. You just had to learn it for
yourself.’ Glinda, the Wizard of Oz.
How can Dorothy
find her way home when she doesn’t have the knowledge of how to get there? The
magical red shoes give her the ‘abracadabra’ element which delivers her to where
she belongs. She needed to know she had the magic all the time.
The gratitude of
being returned home and seeing home through a whole new lens of perception is
the gift that Dorothy brings home from her travels.
Knowing we’re in
the right place at the right time and being at home with ourselves and our
situation brings the attitude of gratitude which strengthens and empowers us in
the change process. It helps us create home within us and to be at home wherever
we are.
At this full
Moon:
Jupiter in Cancer
coming into opposition with Venus in Capricorn and both squared by Mars in
Libra:
Resolving relationship tensions:
With ourselves and with others! Reclaiming our mojo, our magic, our
authentic self!
These planets are forming
a T-square offering challenges/opportunities to clear unresolved issues around
the heart energy, values, feeling valued, feeling secure...all played out within
the context of relationships.
Key to resolving relationship tension:
What’s ‘right’ for me?
What’s aligned with me? What brings me
joy?
The missing leg of the T-square is in Aries so this
is the place where we can resolve some of these tensions. Aries is the ‘I am’
energy and it’s not just about ego, even though in 3rd dimension reality this is
how it often manifests. Own the ‘I am’ energy and be
true to yourself.
Aries to the rescue: Our own personal
hero!
Getting in touch with your personal superhero!
The Aries energy is about doing what is right and
proper for you, honouring yourself in the best way possible. Aries also offers
courage to take the next step especially when it feels like a leap of
faith...pretty much the case for this time. Aries helps us to be the hero in our
own life, to rescue us from our own sense of inadequacy and illusions about our
shortfalls as human beings. The impulsivity and spontaneity of Aries can be
viewed as a strength or weakness. When we need the strength to jump into the
future, Aries is our man. No second guessing here!
"Vulnerability is not about winning,and
it's not about losing.
It's about having the courage
to show up and be seen."

Until the first week of February:
Jupiter is in
opposition to Venus...opportunity and challenge!
Building a rainbow bridge between these two planets of love
and abundance
They’re sitting in the signs that offer us physical and emotional
security, Capricorn and Cancer.
We are being challenged to believe in our right to the abundance of
love and abundance of money! Yes...money!
So many of us are
working on bringing in abundance for all, equity across the planet and that
means for everyone!
Remember, Venus
is asking us what we truly value and to clear the blockages which keep us from
experiencing our true worth, our worthiness and our acceptance of our
entitlement to be healthy, happy and abundant on all levels of
being!
Resolving money and security
issues:
Are you ready to open to the flow of
abundance?
In astrology, Venus rules love and money as well as
beauty and harmony. Venus is a key player in resolving money issues as it
directly relates to our capacity to feel love, accept love and to hold love
within every aspect of our being.
With Venus opposite
Jupiter and challenged by Mars, we’re likely to feel any insecurities about
money issues related to a personal sense of security and feeling secure in our
home.
Keep visualising the pot of gold at the end of the
rainbow! Manifestation grows out of imagination and vision!
Homeless, feeling
homeless, feeling insecure about the home:
‘A bear?’ said Mrs Brown. ‘On Paddington Station? Don’t be
silly, Henry. There can’t be’
But there
was. It had a funny kind of hat and it was
sitting all by itself on an old suitcase near the Lost Property Office.
Insecurities be
gone!
The Full Moon may well
bring up fears and securities about your living situation, household, family.
They are more than likely tied up with money worries. Everyone on the planet
seems to be impacted by the poverty conscious mentality which is pounding us
every day in the press.
These ‘demons’
are very likely to even seem irrational to you. We just have to see them, feel
them and say goodbye to them. Just keep saying ‘all is well’.
I just love the
way Paddington Bear is just sitting on his suitcase, apparently waiting for
something to happen.
And it does! He
finds a home with the Browns.
Happy ever after
stories are good to tell yourself if any insecurities are taking hold of you.
Throw them off!
Sabian Symbols for the Full
Moon:
From Cathy Pagano:
The Sabian
symbol for the Sun at 26* Capricorn is: A nature spirit dancing in the
iridescent mist of a waterfall. Rivers symbolize the flow of
life through time, and when they come to a place where they drop off and form a
waterfall, they symbolize a shift in our attention, a shift in how we flow with
life. This image suggests that the rhythm of life is about to pick
up speed and take us over the edge. But the water spirit is
dancing in a rainbow-like mist, indicating that if we let go of fear and dance
the new rhythm into our lives with joy and happiness, it might just turn out to
be magical!
The Sabian symbol for the Moon at 26* Cancer is: Guests
are reading in the library of a luxurious home. Since this is
the degree of my Moon, I wish I could invite you all into my library (minus the
luxurious home). Books contain the accumulated knowledge and
imagination of the culture, and this image suggests that it’s time we share our
knowledge, combine our imaginations and pool our resources (guests get to
share!).
From Linda
Hill: http://sabiansymbols.typepad.com/
Linda offers extensive explanations of all the
planets and their sabian symbol degree at the time of the full moon. I include
only her summary of the Moon and Sun.
For the Full Moon:
Guests Are Reading In The Library Of A Luxurious
Home
Keywords: Sharing of thoughts
and ideas in an environment of social privilege. Social protocol that says what
one should be digesting, emotionally, intellectually or physically. Libraries.
Hotel reading rooms. Chatting quietly. Books, magazines. Quiet, knowing
atmosphere.
The Caution: Relating on a superficial level
or not being able to relate at all because of social expectations. Being told to
“keep quiet”. Not saying what one really feels. Focusing on the mind, not the
heart. Not being invited to the inner circle.
For the Sun: A Nature Spirit Dancing In
The Mist Of A Waterfall.
There seems to be the need for a curious blend
of asserting one's power and self along with skipping over things with a 'light
nature'. An interesting conundrum, but then full Moons always are to some
extent.

everyone!!!
As always, love and blessings to all as we ride the
waves of emotion through this Full Moon energy, delivering us to the New Moon on
31st January!
