Hi everyone!
Are
you keeping your eye on that reflection of your beautiful self that’s beaming
back to you from the cosmos? That’s the call this month as we embrace all that
is beautiful, loving, peaceful and harmonious within us. Of course, when we do,
all the naysayers in the unconscious, the voices from the past, rise up with
criticisms and judgements taken on from all those societal benchmarks in which
we’re embedded.
We
need to get a really good eyeful of our true selves so we can claim our true
worth and call in our rightful inheritance, our birthright as the Full Moon in
Aries explodes like a fiery volcano within us.
What’s been happening:
The eclipses of September manifesting huge cleansing and
purification of the earth:
Floods, winds, rains, storm surges...what more could have been hammering
the earth during the last weeks. It’s been a worldwide purification by air,
earth and water. The fire is coming this weekend with the Full Moon in
Aries.
Earth and air cleansing: New Moon in Virgo solar eclipse stirred
the mental and physical!
The
New Moon in Virgo Solar Eclipse of 1st September was accompanied by Mercury her
ruler, the breath, the air energy which brought the winds of change blowing
across the earth. A physical and mental purification!
Earth, water and air cleansing: Pisces Full Moon lunar eclipse
stirred the collective emotions!
The follow up Full Moon Pisces Lunar Eclipse 2
weeks later stirred the waters, the oceans of the world whilst re-invigorating
the solar earth energies of Virgo. Mercury’s travels through Virgo in
retrograde energy until 22nd September was a significant factor in stirring the
winds of the earth in tandem with the Pisces ruled oceans and water energies.
It’s been a big collective cleansing of the emotional, mental and
physical energies of Planet Earth and her citizens. Virgo is the sign of the
healer and Pisces is the collective unconscious. Everyone of us is in the
purification pot of change!
The past week:
Mercury, the big player!
Mercury, ruler of our mental body, has been all
over the past week’s planetary activities so if you’ve been feeling a little
like a cat on a hot tin roof, startled and jumpy, then you know the mental,
nervous and respiratory systems are getting a workover and a realignment and
rebalancing of energies as Mercury travels through Libra, the sign of balance,
harmony and justice. Mentally, you may have felt lacking in clarity, in two
minds about right action or just accepting that it’s a time of waiting and
allowing the feeling of being in the ambivalence. This has been a real weighing
up of pros and cons, this or that, as we allow the answers to emerge.
If you’ve had respiratory
clearances or challenges with the nervous system this past week I can sympathise
as Mercury is clearing out imbalances in our constitution which could well have
impacted the physical body. Mars, ruler of our physical body, has been a player
in this process. Nervous tension, anxiety, polarised thinking could well be
manifestations of the past week when we’re learning to let go of the control
from the small mind.
Uranus and Eris, the electrical lightning energies, have also been in there putting some charges through the system. More to come as we go into the Full Moon energies.
The Libran energies
bringing imbalances and inequities to light:
No surprise that the issues arising with the
American election and Trump’s remarks on women have brought much consciousness
forward from men as well as women with respect to the imbalances perpetrated by
the old order of patriarchal energies. If we view politics from the higher
perspective, we can see the spiritual role played out by politicians, political
parties and the nations of the world. It can manifest in positive or negative
reactions within us but essentially, it often brings to light that which has
been buried in the human consciousness. Of course, any public figures have a
powerful role to play in this spiritual process.
With the Sun, Jupiter and
Mercury all travelling through Libra, the focus on rectification of imbalances
and inequities is somewhat intense as Saturn in Sagittarius causes us to
re-examine old paradigms in the light of higher consciousness as he continues to
square off to Neptune in Pisces. The path of spiritual evolution calls us all on
to shift our old patterns and keep releasing the karmic imprints held within
each one of us.
What’s coming in:
16th October:
Full Moon in Aries at 3.23 pm AEDT
at 23 degrees 14 Aries
I am that I am!
Shocks to the system: Uranus/Eris/Moon
firing the emotions!
Here’s a glorious full moon which is guaranteed to wake us up to our own
pure potential. With Uranus and Eris/feminine energy of Uranus, both in close
proximity to the Full Moon in Aries, there’s a huge wake up call with the
electrical charges of Uranus joining with Eris his feminine counterpart
releasing the suppressed energies from within.
Radical fiery energies are busting us out of the old order:
Culminations, endings!
This is an explosive Full Moon full of fire and
the powerful Aries warrior energy which is all fire, calling us to radical
independence. If you’ve felt locked into some kind of imprisoning situation,
whether mentally, emotionally, physically or spiritually, the spiritual fire of
this Aries Full Moon will break through the impasse with a sudden inspiration,
insight and a decisive courage to go forward which has been the missing
ingredient.
It’s an Astro Boy experience! Put on those magic boots of fire and be
an Aries rocket!
The Aries torch of freedom is here: Are you ready to take
it?
This Full Moon promises us the confidence and
faith in ourselves and our pathway forward if we are ready to believe in the
great opportunity being offered at this time. With all this year’s purification
process, many of us are feeling a little wobbly, unsure as to a secure footing
on the new path. We’ve become so used to the rug being pulled from under us to
attend to a healing crisis which has taken all our energy and focus. It’s been
necessary to come to this point in time.
This is a Full Moon guaranteed to fill us with the courage and strength
to break through the bonds, chains and limitations of karmic and ancestral
threads. This is a Full Moon which will face the fears, love the fears and
release them into the light. Make the most of all this power...just
decide!
Memories uncovered, acknowledged, released and/or reclaimed:
The ‘ghosts’ of past times are released...new knowledge and clarity about the
self!
The moon rules memories and the past including
ancestors and family so when we get the Full Moon, the time of the month when
the moon is most powerful and light filled, we are likely to experience
illuminations and revelations which have previously been hidden, secreted in our
memory banks within.
The
Full Moon brings energies to light so we can bring closure to unresolved issues
which have been sitting within us, often unknown to our conscious minds. Maybe
we’ve had a whisper but didn’t get to the core ‘wound’ blocking our growth into
full truth of ourselves.
This Full Moon: The masculine aligns with the feminine...a
balanced partnership!
The moon is regarded as our ‘feminine’ energy,
our divine mother. However, this Full Moon is in the sign of Aries which is the
fiery masculine warrior energy, and desire, drive and motivation which takes us
out into the world..Mars is ruler of Aries and he’s all masculine but in the
light of this full moon energy with the Sun in Libra, the loving partnership
energy, the masculine energy takes on a whole new perspective through the
feminine inner discovery journey.
Our
hearts will be fired with the truth of who we really are...if we are prepared to
listen, to notice emotions, thoughts and behaviours coming to the fore which
have been unfamiliar. If you’re triggered by something it’s a good indication
that something is coming up for clearing.
Sun in Libra opposite the Aries Full Moon:
Bringing in the new paradigm of divine partnerships as we choose to align with
our truth!
The Sun in Libra has the support of the beautiful energy of the
fixed star Arcturus which brings higher consciousness to the Libran Sun.
The potential of this
whole full moon time comes through our clearance of extraneous and hampering
energies we’re carrying whether emotional, mental, physical or spiritual. With
the breaking down of all barriers blocking our ownership and acknowledgement of
our ‘I am’ self, we come into a purity which attracts to us all those who
resonate with us and repel and/or release those who no longer resonate and align
with us.
The flow on will be in all
manner of ‘partnerships’. Any close partnership will be called upon to shift in
some way as all the barriers fall away. It doesn’t mean the end of partnerships
but it will call us to transform existing partnerships and move into a higher
gear of consciousness based on divine love.
Here’s Astro Boy with his
little sister, a one on one partnership of siblings just as we have one on one
partnerships with all members of our families, our business associates and
colleagues, friendships and intimate romantic partners, lovers and spouses.
Just to add to the volatile mix of
this Full Moon:
Mercury, our mind manager is in Libra squaring
off to Pluto in Capricorn just 3 degrees from fiery Mars, ruler of Aries.
This is mind blowing energy as Mercury our
mental energy, ruler of our respiratory and nervous system could well trigger a
physical release as Mars, ruler of our physical body is working with Pluto,
ruler of the underworld, the dark lord of transformation, life, death and
rebirth. Full Moons bring big emotions so the release is likely to be on levels
of our being...emotional, mental, physical and of course spiritual as we reclaim
our birthright of our true selves.
Pluto’s very much engaged in the long term process of bringing the old
order, traditions, dogmas and paradigms to the surface of our consciousness.
It’s a transpersonal process which is impacting every one of us as we review the
status quo when issues come to the surface in the public arena. However, it’s a
very personal process too as each one of us carries the memories of past
This aspect is embodied in ‘The Tower’ card from the Tarot, symbolising
the release of those inner attachments, subconscious elements such as mental and
emotional constructs held within our being which can trigger us to act in
unexpected ways, popping up seemingly out of nowhere.
This Full Moon energy along with the Mercury, Pluto and Mars is opening
the doors of the subconscious in such a powerful way as to blow our minds, free
us up in a dramatic way.
19th October: Mars meets Pluto at 15 degrees Capricorn...a
culminating release and a fresh
start!
From 16th to 19th October:
Ongoing intensification as Mars and Pluto come towards their meeting on
19th.
This energy is not just at the Full Moon as Mars
is moving towards an exact connection with Pluto on 19th, just 3 days after the
Full Moon. The Full Moon energies sets off the eruptions from within which will
be intensifying between 16th and 19th. Much of these energies will be shifting
before the 19th unless we have resistance within. The 19th is the culminating
date!
Potential shifts in desires and in our physical
bodies:
Mars is our fire and drive and ruler of our physical body and Pluto is
Lord of the Underworld, holding within our greatest potential if we’re ready to
be ‘mined’ and open to these powerful forces. I would imagine there’s huge
shifts which will be happening within our physical bodies and with our deepest
desires. It’s all happening in Capricorn, sign of tradition, the patriarchy,
the old order as well as desire for success and respect in the world. Any or
all of these issues could come forth.
When planets meet in a conjunction such as this it signifies a door
closing and a new beginning!
Supermoon:
This Aries Full
Moon is what has become known as a Super Moon based on its proximity to the
earth.

Quotes
from the above article:
‘October's full moon will
be a supermoon, but won't be the closest of 2016.
That comes next month,
which will have a supermoon of its own.
October's full moon will
come within several hours of with its closest approach to Earth in its monthly
orbit and will be one of six supermoons this year.
"Supermoon" is a term
that has really caught on in the past few years, but astronomers have been
calling it an "perigee full moon" for much longer, or "perigee-syzygy of the
Earth-Moon-Sun system" if you really want to get technical.’
'According to Nolle a
supermoon is a new or full moon that has to come within 224,641 miles of Earth,
as measured from the centers of the Earth and moon.
Using that definition
there will be six supermoons in 2016: the new moons of March, April and May and
the full moons of October, November and December.'

Symbol for the Full Moon in Aries:
Aries
24
AN OPEN WINDOW AND A NET CURTAIN
BLOWING INTO THE SHAPE OF A CORNUCOPIA
This Symbol shows that your mind is, or should
be, open to possibilities that are being 'blown' in from the realm of spirit.
There is an abundance coming, shown by the Cornucopia, which will be
self-sustaining. This degree suggests that with the slightest change in
direction your fortunes could change as well. Look for out-of-the-ordinary
opportunities and possibilities. Realizing that in one's everyday life, one has
it all. Open your windows and blinds and let air and sunshine in and watch good
things follow. Imagination. Keeping your options open. The promise of fruition.
The breath of life filling you with inspiration. Open windows and doors.
Fertility. Gain. Abundance.
The Caution: Relying on spiritual ideas to provide material sustenance. Thinking that good luck will just 'blow in'. Shutting windows and doors – keeping light and life out.

A THIRD WING ON THE LEFT SIDE OF
A BUTTERFLY
This Symbol can show imbalances of many kinds;
physical, mental, spiritual or emotional. Understanding and accepting fragility
and differences in our self and others can give greater empathy for those who
have difficulty operating efficiently in the world. When the transformation into
full potential occurs, it is wonderful, however, you may feel that you are
unnaturally developed or somehow lopsided in the emotive, intuitive realms.
Instinct may swamp logic or logic may take from instinct or intuition.
Physically, one side of your body could work more efficiently or smoothly than
the other. It helps to try to regain balance and equilibrium – try finding that
still space in the middle. Creative overbalance. Oddities. Beautiful
imperfections. One side being more perfect than the other. Being light and
flippant. Savants. Bodily impairments and handicaps.
The Caution: Unrealistic reliance on being different. Obsession with strange things. Flapping around and not getting anywhere. Restlessness, nervousness. Lopsidedness.

18th October: Venus moves into Sagittarius at 6.00
pm AEDT...our hearts expand with joy!
Until 12th November
Optimism, hope and expansion for our
hearts: The perfect ‘medicine’ at the Full Moon recovery party!
Two
days after the moon comes to fullness, Venus ruler of our heart energy, moves
into Sagittarius the sign of higher consciousness, truth and wisdom!
From 16th to 18th: Cleansing purification of the heart energies
as Venus completes her journey through Scorpio!
Venus will be in the closing degrees of Scorpio and as it comes to the
completion of its journey through Scorpio, the energy intensifies as it cleans
up all that can and need be cleared and transmuted in the heart energy. It will
be working in tandem with the Mars/Pluto energies in Capricorn which would
indicate that physical heart healing and transmutation of energies is likely.
From 18th October to 12th November: Venus in
Sagittarius...heart opening expansion!
The open road calls us to open our hearts to the
joy and freedom which is available to all of us. This calls us to embrace the
rainbow energy of unification, of our hopes and dreams and to believe in
ourselves as magical beings who create our own reality...from our heart centre.
Our
hearts know what we want even if we are wavering in indecision. This energy is
likely to break down the walls of resistance or denial of what we truly desire
in our heart of hearts.
Bigger is better: That’s a Sagittarian catchcry leading our
hearts to open in a whole new way!
Sagittarius calls us to the higher consciousness of divine truth and
wisdom, the knowledge of our own divinity. With Venus immersing herself in this
energy until 12th November, there’ll be a ‘no holds barred’ kind of energy
kicking in which will be a welcome relief following on from the immensity of
transformation we’ve been experiencing through the Full Moon and after
September’s eclipses. If we’ve been dropping all the baggage over the Full Moon
period, we’ll be ready to open to a whole new experience of love in our hearts
and in our lives.

Upcoming Dates:
23rd October: Sun moves into Scorpio
25th October: Mercury moves into Scorpio
31st October: New Moon in
Scorpio
That’s it folks!
As
always, love and blessings to us all as we experience the passionate fire of
Aries and embrace our ‘I am’ energy! Safe journey to us all as we embrace the
wake up calls and bolts of lightning clearing away the past which have been
hampering our growth and expansion into the fullness of our spiritual selves and
the fulfilment of our divine joy on earth.
Now
we’re heading towards Scorpio energies with the Sun’s move into the sign of
death and transformation on 23rd October, then Mercury followed by a New Moon
in Scorpio on 31st October. Now we’re over the eclipse energies and the Full
Moon in Aries, I’m trusting that the Scorpio will not feel quite so intense as
usual. However, knowing Scorpio, it’s always deep and intense. It’s all good.
We’re finishing up a 9 year! The New Year begins a new 9 year cycle!
Hugs all around
