1st February 2018 Full Moon in Leo Total Lunar Eclipse in Leo, Mercury enters Aquarius

Hi everyone!
I just finished off my last overdue update so this will be a short one as it’s generally about incoming energies.  I’m sure we’re all getting a very clear idea of what this year is asking of us. 

It’s a total lunar eclipse:
We’re in the light of the Leo Moon which is preparing to come to fullness tonight/tomorrow at a culminating point of change and release with such a power packed energy all happening at this Full Moon.  Firstly, it’s a total lunar eclipse which indicates major, sudden and dramatic changes flowing on from this full moon for the next 6 months to even 12 months. Sudden releases and revelations will bring about the flow of changes.

It’s a ‘supermoon’:
The proximity of the Full Moon to the earth will add to the power of it’s light and the promise of greater enlightenment pouring in and opening up within us.

It’s a cosmic energy with focus on love and divine love:
With Aquarius Sun energy shining on us, we’re looking at cosmic, galactic sources which we carry within us. The higher consciousness of divine love is being activated within us.

3 days before and after at full power: 
The power of the Full Moon is strongly present for 3 days before and after it comes to fullness and will be carrying us forward to the next New Moon in Aquarius which is a solar eclipse in Aquarius on 16th February.  That eclipse is when we’ll start feeling like taking some further action in response to the lunar insights coming with this full moon and through the coming weeks.  Being in the eclipse vortex means life can change dramatically and suddenly at a moment’s notice.
It starts from within us as we reach a breaking point of ‘enough is enough’ and choose a new higher pathway of devotion.

Health focus:
Leo rules the heart and the circulatory system and with Venus/ruler of our heart in the mix, take care of heart energies and let the light in and rest!
Aquarius rules the neuralgic system so you may be feeling the impact of this if Uranus is impacting you strongly.  I’ve been dealing with Uranus and Chiron transits long term which is why I’m finishing this off with a hotpack on my back!

1st February 2018
Full Moon Total Lunar Eclipse 11 degrees 37 minutes Leo 
At 12.26 am AEDT
The balancing act between me and ‘us’:  Where am I?
The Full Moon in Leo opposite the Aquarius Sun puts the focus on our alignment of the personal and the transpersonal, the individual and the collective and brings us into the balancing act between individual ideals and collective unification.

It’s all about ‘love’!  Do we have the courage to love completely
Leo is interested in the individual, personal love and the path of heart whereas Aquarius is interested in humanity, transpersonal love and the commonality that binds us in the collective power. We access both energies and need to balance the personal with the collective. 

Integrating personal and transpersonal love:  
Love within, so without!
Eclipses are aligned with the planetary lunar nodes, the current evolutionary direction and focus for humanity.  The North Node currently in Leo is our focus for evolving consciousness at this time as we integrate the knowledge and acceptance of our South Node Aquarian inheritance. ancestry and history.  

Venus:  
Power of the heart!  
A major player in the Full Moon message!
Venus is a strong presence at this Full Moon sitting up close and personal to the Sun and between the Sun and the South Node of the Moon, activating both the Sun in a heart centred Aquarian reboot of consciousness and in an opposition to the Full Moon in Leo, signifying a huge release of heart energy!

As the ruler of our heart energy Venus is telling us it’s time to release the old memories blocking the full release of the loving power within us. 

Ceres, the powerful ‘mother’ asteroid: 
On standby to birth our heart and emotions into the higher consciousness of Aquarius!
Ceres, the asteroid known as the ‘midwife’ is sitting right on the Full Moon at 11 degrees Leo.  That, in itself, is a huge message about the birthing happening at this Full Moon. Get ready for this big release as the emotional floodgates release the old and give birth to the new...all in the one go!


Full Moons:  
A culmination, a release of emotional power and revelations!

Eclipses:  
A Total Lunar Eclipse adds to the significance and power of all that the Full Moon offers! 
It will be carrying the force of the Leo energies, activating our heart’s desires for the expression of our individuality, our authentic power through the power of personal love.  

It’s about the love and acceptance we have for ourselves, to honour ourselves with the satisfaction that comes from knowing and honouring our particular gifts and talents.


Supermoons:  The close proximity to the earth at this Full Moon is adding weight to the lunar power!
More lunar power calling forth that which needs to leave and that which needs acknowledgement.  It’s a two way process as we release the old and the new energies emerge from within us as the cosmic tides cleanse and purify our beings.
 
Anything which is hurting, holding us back has to go:  
We’re preparing to birth new lives!
This eclipse offers the release of all that is not loving and accepting of ourselves, all the buried pains, heartaches, disappointments, guilt, anger, resentment or grief around love and how we experienced it in the past.  The moon brings forth all energies buried deep within us from past times both this lifetime and other realities.  It’s not all a bad rap but we tend to bury sadness which acts as a filter blocking out the possibility of divine joy and love in our current realities. So this big total lunar eclipse promises a huge release and a huge influx of loving light energy. 

About eclipse cycles and planetary nodes: 
It’s a realignment of the mass consciousness, a realignment to a common planetary goal

The eclipse cycles are connected to the planetary nodal changes so this year we have eclipses in Leo and Aquarius aligned with the North Planetary Moon Node and the South Node in Aquarius.

Divine love calling us on!

The first eclipse in the Cancer/Capricorn dimension is the New Moon in Cancer partial solar eclipse on 13th July AEST.  The North Node of the Moon moves into Cancer at the end of the first week of November which takes us into the next approximately 2 years of eclipses in Cancer/Capricorn. However, there is an overlap as eclipses start in the Cancer/Capricorn cycle as the planetary nodes prepare to shift later in 2018.

Sabian Symbols for the Full Moon Total Lunar Eclipse:  From Lynda Hill www.sabiansymbols.com

Leo 12
AN EVENING LAWN PARTY OF ADULTS
This Symbol shows having fun, relaxing and socializing with people, usually in an informal setting, although this can sometimes imply formal ones. Give the rigors of the work routine a rest. Having a drink, eating some food, sharing a chat and gossip, meeting new people, networking and catching up with friends is good for the soul. Relaxation is great, especially where there is no need for pretense. Of course, you may be the host of the party and you may have to provide a venue, food, drinks and entertainment. Still, you should get to enjoy the moment and mix with people. Rising above superficiality into receptivity. Enjoying social settings. Formal versus impromptu. Catering. Leisure time. Conversations. Invitation lists. Socializing.


Aquarius 12
PEOPLE ON A VAST STAIRCASE, GRADUATED UPWARDS
This shows being able to interact with others and integrate various levels of experience, life or people, and not feel compromised by what rung, or level, you’re at in your own life. The “Vast Staircase” can show the ladder that one must climb, socially, spiritually, emotionally – even physically. Going up that staircase, one begins to feel more empowered, more accomplished, more ‘there’. However, being on a lower rung may cause a feeling of compromise. Don’t concern yourself with who’s in front or behind. It is of little true consequence. Accept your position, but strive ever upwards. Trust that you and yours are heading in the right direction. Observing life from different views. Social gradations. Orders from above, in any sense. Waiting for one's turn at the top. Multilevel marketing. Corporate ladders. Promotion.

Lynda Hill’s Full Moon in Leo with Sabian Symbols:
1st  February 2018:  Mercury enters Aquarius at 12.39 am AEDT
Our messenger takes to the sky!
Until 18th February
Mercury stayed the distance in Capricorn where he’s been feeling somewhat grounded as Mercury is an air energy, ruler of communication, travel and education.

Let’s not forget he’s the ruler of our mental body, our mind manager so may well have been doing some hard yards while travelling through slow and steady Capricorn.  He’s been getting a major makeover with respect to his mindsets, expectations and benchmarks that have been confining him from his natural quicksilver mental agility.

How interesting that he is ‘birthed’ into airy, mentally focussed Aquarius within minutes of the moon coming to fullness. Trusting we’ll feel quite an uplift with this one after Mercury’s makeover in Capricorn.  Respiratory system. mind, lungs, nervous system clearing.

Mercury and Mars are our mover/shakers and they’re both on a roll one way or another. Mars, our fire energy is recalibrating and realigning physically with our divine ‘I am’ energy as he throws off the old expectations and benchmarks which are held within the cell memories.

Mercury is now up and away, speeding into the cosmic freeways of higher consciousness in Aquarius.   Make the most of this freewheeling mental energy as he’ll be moving into Pisces, sign the watery energies of the collective unconscious on 18th February just after the New Moon in Aquarius solar eclipse on 16th February.

Hugs all around!
We’re with the pride of lion energy, our heart family on earth. More love, more light and keep choosing the higher pathway. 

The media beat up on this being a ‘blue moon’ has no relevance to astrology as it’s about two full moons occurring in a calendar month. I feel it goes back to superstitious belief systems and hey...whatever works for you with magical realities.


Love and blessings  to us all as we embrace the divine feminine energy of the full moon and her secrets being revealed at this time.

20th January 2018 Sun entered Aquarius, 26th January 2018 Mars entered Sagittarius


Hi everyone! 
Well we’re up on top of the clouds or in the clouds or looking at clouds as we hurtle somewhat haphazardly through this eclipse energy which truly opens up with the Leo Full Moon Lunar eclipse on 31st January/1st February AEDT. 
 
The New Moon in Capricorn on 17th January opened the doorway and set everything in motion somewhat chaotically as Uranus, our lightning striker squared off to that New Moon. That Uranus energy is a governing force carrying us through the lunar month until the New Moon in Aquarius mid February.
 
What’s happening?  We don’t know!
I don’t know if you’ve felt this sense that there’s a new energy driving the wheels of your vehicle which may give the sensation that you don’t know what’s happening next but the universe serves something up which takes you to the next step.
 
Cabin fever or grateful for time out?
The extreme weather in many parts of the world has been a part of this energy of keeping us ‘inside’ possibly physically if we want to stay out of the heatwave or the floods or the extreme ice and snow.  It may have felt like cabin fever and yet a greater desire to stay put than to find the physical escape hatch.
 
The Sun moved into Aquarius last week on 20th January!
I was unable to get out an update for the Sun moving into Aquarius last week as the energetic healing within me just did not permit this to happen. With the Capricorn Sun we were taken to the top of the mountain and now with the Aquarian solar journey we’re going out to the cosmos!
 
20th January: Sun entered Aquarius at 2.08 pm AEDT
Cosmic travellers prepare to journey!
Until 19th February AEDT
The uplift to help us see the cosmic picture as we tread the Capricorn highway!
With all the Capricorn energies ushering in the New Year we’re reaching for our spiritual ‘mountain’ even as we’re being grounded by all the earth energies.  So, the Aquarian Sun was just the kind of airy uplift we’re all needing to come into the cosmic picture whilst we tread the Saturn highway!
 
Have you been taking the time to tune into the cosmos? 
We’ve been soaking in this energy since 20th January although for many of us it’s been challenging to see this cosmic view when we’re very much in the recalibration process of divine alignment with mind, body, spirit. Tune into your ideals, strengths and capabilities!
 
Connecting with friends and community:  Like meets like!
Aquarius is one of the energies which opens access to the quantum field in humanity as well as the cosmic connections beyond earth.  Aquarius gives us focus on the interconnectedness with like-minded others, soul family, stellar family, light family which manifests as our friends and community.  We often find during this period we may find ‘friends’, acquaintances or contacts may fall away from our inner connections whilst new people come in to view.
 
The constant ebb and flow of human connections and relationships:  Coming and going!
We all have inner circles and outer circles of contact with others.  They all play a role at varying times in our lives depending on our area of growth and expansion at any one time.  Sometimes they move on for good as we complete our ‘contracts’ with them.  They may return as appropriate at later times in our lives.
 
New perspectives emerge: 
What’s my place in the scheme of things?

Aquarius also rules our hopes and dreams, bringing into perspective thoughts and feelings about our place on earth, our role within the whole spectrum of humanity. 

Aquarius brings to notice ways we make our contributions to the positive growth of humanity’s consciousness as well as highlighting new doorways outside our current thinking or mindset about who we are and what we have to offer.
 
Innovative and leading edge ideas are presented:  What do I do with this?
Aquarius is ruled by Uranus and as such brings lightning fast changes, insights and ideas outside our present mindset. We may see new possibilities floating through our consciousness which may not present as a definite pathway forward. Wait for the Leo Full Moon eclipse!
 
Incoming Lunar Eclipse:  Revelations and insights!
The Leo Full Moon Eclipse coming up on 1st February AEDT is likely to throw up a whole raft of creative possibilities and passionate ideas which hook into something that’s been running through your psyche since 20th January.
 
 
This year’s call to take charge of our lives:  
Shifting energy from complaining, criticising others to  powering up our own lives!
 
Changing the world by taking our spiritual power:  
‘Personal is political’!
If you’re one of this mob it’s time to re-focus and a call to take charge of any sense of powerlessness by reaffirming faith in the divine energy within. It seems very clear since the beginning of this calendar year with the big full moon in Cancer and the New Moon in Capricorn with a major planetary line-up in Team Capricorn that this year is our call to demonstrate mastery of our physical reality in the here and now. 


Releasing and defusing security issues as we choose spiritual power!
Cancer and Capricorn are both concerned with security and the emotional security issues that arise in the Cancer energy relate to the past, ancestry, past lives/other realities as well as from our own lives. The Capricorn security issues relate to our physical existence, the body, work in the world and money.
 
This year is a call to stay focussed every day on taking charge of all those old energies which are arising within around any issues of security.  It’s a wobbly world for the next couple of years or so and it is up to us to get onto any ‘wobbly’ feelings or heaviness as soon as they appear.
 
Destruction and Construction:  Happening all at the same time!
All the whistleblowing in the world is at best a destructive, rip the walls down energy but who’s building the new possibilities?  If we want positive change for the better then this is the year to start creating new realities, to back faith in the power of energy and higher consciousness. Shaming and blaming others is not good for our health and wellbeing even though we feel the anger and yes, at times a sense of futility.  Power to the people!  
 
 
26th January:  Mars entered Sagittarius at 11.56 pm AEDT
Did you feel the engines roar?
Until 18th March
Yes!  It’s a steam train! 
Saturn’s keeping our fire power on track and Mars is the engine driver!
Our engines are underway again as Mars, ruler of our physical body, the fire and drive which gets us up and active moves into the fiery sign of Sagittarius.  Sagittarius is the sign of bigger and better, get the show on the road energy. Except we’re not on the open road or the brumbies running free on the hills. But we’re travelling in the positive, optimistic sign of Sagittarius and our engine driver is on a roll!
 
Let the fire energies and steam take us on:  
We’re ‘tempering’ our spiritual forces within!
Our Mars in Sagittarius is packed into a steam train and carriages, symbol of the collective energies which are a big part of the package deal with the journey this year.  Can we get off this train?  We can but it’s in our best interests at this stage to allow the fuel to recharge our tired and/or depleted energies, to allow this big picture train to take us on, to luxuriate in the tempering of our fire and drive and to maximise our energetic flow.
 
The Temperance card:  Sagittarian energy which balances spirit and emotion
In the Tarot, Sagittarius is represented by the major card called ‘Temperance’ which is all about the tempering of steel, working with the energies of fire and water in the moulding of higher consciousness within us. Fire is our spirit and water is representative of our emotions.  So we’re harnessing the emotional power with spirit to produce more steam to carry us forward.
 
Mars is in Sagittarius for the long haul through the eclipse vortex of energy:
Mars will be in Sagittarius through the Full Moon in Leo Lunar Eclipse on 1st February, New Moon in Aquarius Solar Eclipse on 17th February and won’t be moving out of Sagittarius until 18th March, the day of the New Moon in Pisces when we emerge from the eclipse vortex.
 
Taking time out to rest and regenerate when needed:  Maximising our efficiency physically and spiritually!
That means our fire and drive, masculine power and physical bodies will be re-balancing and recalibrating to maximise our capacity to hold and direct higher consciousness which is our fiery Sagittarian energy. We’ll be gaining more clarity all the time and we need to maintain faith that Saturn will help us closely monitor endurance and perseverance to stay on track!

Sun’s in Aquarius and our collective journey by steam train has taken us up above the clouds!  We’re soaking up the cosmic energies preparing the way forward in the laying of new foundations for our earthly existence.  More clarity coming all the time especially at the Full Moon eclipse this week.
 
We’re already in the eclipse portal as we head to the Full Moon in Leo Lunar eclipse, fuelled on divine trust and faith that our way forward is revealing exciting opportunities for our growth and expansion.
 
Mars entry into the sign of optimism and expansion will add fuel to our journey.  You can’t get ready for this kind of trip. It’s all good.
 
Apologies for not getting out this update sooner but I’ve been going through ‘the upgrade’ and I seriously wondered if I’d be able to continue with the updates.  I had half written this so sending it out anyway despite the lunar eclipse coming in hot on the heels of this one.
 
Love and blessings as always.  We just keep taking good care of ourselves and stay tuned!  Trust I’ll get the F Moon update in next day or so.

Hi everyone!
 
So here we are on our way under the light of the Capricorn Sun. How do you foresee your road this year?  Are you starting to see the bigger picture?
 
With Capricorn energy playing such a powerful role in the next year or two, we’ll be creating and building foundations which may have started in the ether of our imaginative being but which are our blueprints for the coming year.  
 
Tuning in to our divine ‘blueprint’ for this lifetime:
This energy calls on us to get in touch with our own divine ‘blueprint’ for this lifetime.  We don’t have to know the whole picture as we’re working with ‘potential’, that which is as yet unseen and undeveloped in physical form. If ever there was a time to start accessing that blueprint, it’s this year!
 
What new ‘structures’ will you be building this year?
Capricorn inspires us to build structures on the earth. Historically, these structures have translated into physical form as buildings, large buildings in large cities. Human beings have become a dominating force imprinting their visions for bigger and ‘better’ on the landscape.  It’s been quite a ride for a very long time.
 
Starting with ideas, hopes, dreams,  accessing your particular gifts, values and desires:  The New Moon coming in is the door opener to possibilities!

What structures are you inspired to build in your personal and creative life in the coming year.  The universe is always supporting us and if we’ve done enough clearing of karmic contracts, imprints, and mindsets while Saturn was in Sagittarius we’re in a good position to now trust we can really start some new ventures and possibilities. The ‘structures’ may be merely ideas, concepts, dreams which do not yet have full physical form in our mind’s eye.  We are starting to work on that creative process of getting the building blocks in place.

 
Capricorn: 
Old Father Time working with the Priestess in accessing the ‘time ready’ energies
Timing is everything in life as nothing changes until there is ‘readiness’ to change.  Any school teacher can tell you that a child learns to read when ready.  This understanding has been around for a very long time. Whether we’re talking about personal or collective change, the same principle applies.  We know this as the ‘tipping point’, the ‘100th monkey’ concept when consciousness shifts for the collective.  

On the personal level, we are working with the same understanding in learning to tune in to when we’re ready to act, when to wait, when to rest, when to busy.
‘A time to be born, a time to die’!

 
Honouring our faith and belief in who we are and our ‘work’ in the world:   Walking boots on!
Art:  Lydia Wylangowska
With Saturn and Pluto in Capricorn for the next 2 to 3 years it’s important to honour the way this energy works which is about persistence, dedication, commitment, focus and the honouring of our particular skills and talents in contributing to the world. 
 
‘Miraculous’ breakthroughs are available: 
Keep the showboots handy and be patient in the knowingness!
With Saturn, we may continue diligently for many years when it seems a miraculous breakthrough occurs.  I’ve had this happen during my lifetime so am well aware of the way it works.  As long as you’re tuned in and valuing the path you’re on then the persistence, focus and commitment is easy.   If you want overnight ‘miracles’ they can occur when we have honed our energies and are demonstrating a regular mastery of our life.
 
Capricorn: Earth energy and feminine with a masculine authority of Saturn as ruler
Saturn rules the patriarchy and is associated with masculine authority in the world so it may seem confusing that Saturn is ruler of the ‘feminine’, receptive earth energy.  Actually it’s a perfect mix for accessing that inner masculine magical energy of the wizard working with the understanding of the feminine energies manifesting with receptivity, focus and timing action and stillness.

17th January: 
New Moon in Capricorn at 26 degrees 54 Capricorn at 1.17 pm AEDT...Merlin!
Art:  Ann Sudworth
Magic happens when we hear the heart call and act on it’s message!
What a line-up for this first New Moon for 2018!  So much Capricorn emphasis with Venus, our heart energy out ahead of Team Capricorn asking us to let our heart lead the way!
 
The planetary ‘stellium’ in Capricorn:  
Wow!  Power packed!
Venus                28 degrees   ruler of the heart
New Moon/Sun    26 degrees   feminine/masculine energies
Pluto                 19 degrees   power
Mercury               8 degrees    ruler of the mind
Black Moon Lilith  7 degrees    shadow feminine
Saturn                3 degrees    authority
 
The big message of this New Moon: Team Capricorn kicks off 2018!
The New Moon is always about planting new seeds which capitalise on the available planetary energies and the Capricorn energy is about planting seeds which offer the promise of activating our personal and spiritual ambitions to be expressed in our physical lives.  
 
Tune in to your personal ambitions:  What is waiting for you?
The Capricorn seeds are the energies which hold our inner authority as the creator of our own lives. They are the seeds of wonderful desires, ambitions within us which come from our spiritual source. They have been awaiting this exact time to come forth for us to see, to own and to plant!  Make a wish at the wishing well and then little steps forward toward the next full moon lunar eclipse.
 
 
Uranus in Aries activating the New Moon:  Seekers awake!  
We’re in this together finding our unique ‘mountain’ of destiny!
Our mountain goats come together on the mountain top as the lightning strikes and the thunder rumbles. Safety together as they support each other with their closeness.  That’s us as the New Moon awakens us with a lightning flash!
 
New consciousness awakening our higher minds and hearts!
If you’re in a state of wonderment about your deepest desires and the way forward, Uranus is promising a big wake up call at this New Moon.  Uranus is the lightning strike of illumination of higher consciousness and his focus is in Aries which is all about our essential selves, our divine ‘I am’  presence.  
 
Mars and Jupiter in Scorpio:  Playing support to all the Capricorn energies!  Transformational healing!
Mars at 24 makes strong and supportive connections to the New Moon/Sun, Venus and Pluto adding substance and strength to our physical bodies, fire and drive.  Let’s not forget that Saturn rules the skeletal framework, joints, bones and teeth so a physical healing power is being birthed in this energy.  Looking forward to its potency play our in the coming lunar month.
Jupiter at 19 degrees Scorpio is expanding our Plutonic power in Capricorn and urging us to be positive and optimistic about our transformation.
 
The ‘new’ paradigm is the oldest paradigm for living in mastery on earth:  
Wisdom, power and authority in alignment with natural ‘law’!  Focus!
With Uranus squaring off to this New Moon energy we are being offered an activation of higher consciousness, helping us to break out of the dominant ideological basis of the current paradigm of ‘success, achievement and materialism’.  This is an activation of a ‘new’ paradigm which is in fact the oldest paradigm of the nature of reality. The magical road of divine wisdom, ancient knowledge and mastery of the physical world utilising our higher consciousness and spiritual ideals and goals is our way forward. The ‘magical’ reality already exists here on earth but how many are consciously tuned in to the natural laws and the nature of reality.  We’re about to find out!
 
At this New Moon: Breaking through the walls of resistance within and without! 
Easy when we own our innate spiritual source of strength!
Art:  Guy Billout
What does success mean to you?
At this new moon, we just have to open to new perceptions of the way of the world ‘out there’ and how we’re enacting this paradigm in our own lives. How much are we locked into the benchmarks set by society?  How much are we ‘driven’ to achieve in terms of the current paradigm for measuring success in the world?  What does success in the world mean to us as individuals? 
 
Choosing the divine path:  
Joy, creative fulfilment and unique creative gifts!  Off the treadmill!
It’s time to find that inner ‘mountain’ which is waiting for us to ‘access’.  Let’s leave behind the paradigms and cliches of ‘hard work and struggle’ and choose the path of divine dedication and devotion to bringing forth our particular talents and strengths in the creation of a new world.
 
We’ve got this! We can straddle the worlds of 3D and 5D...muggles and magicals!
We’re still very much in the world and have every entitlement to success in the world but this new moon is suggesting we dictate our own terms of ‘success’ in our lives.  We don’t need to live in the walled environment of the status quo which restricts our expansion.  How we move beyond it is an ‘undercover’ operation which works with energetic power...what many see as miraculous magic!
 
Practical steps to the magical path!  
Be open, ready to tune in to ‘you’ and clear the voices of conditioning!

Magic happens when we make the decision, commit to the path forward and take the practical steps to enact that decision in our lives. Firstly, let the energies come in to awaken the deepest self and allow yourself to explore the possibilities.  There’s nothing wrong with ‘limitations’ which are keeping us aligned with our pathway forward. Allow the self to experience any ‘limitations’ which arise in our minds and mindsets and see if they’re working for or against us. It’s all in the perception!
 
 
The Eclipse Portal opens:  
2 weeks of grounding ourselves in the Capricorn energy!  
Keep opening the heart to divine guidance!
Related imageThis New Moon energy is taking us into the preparatory lunar eclipse energy for the Full Moon lunar eclipse in 2 weeks time.
 
With so much earth energy supporting us the message is clear that the Leo Lunar eclipse on 31st/1st February will be an inner illumination of much that we are seeking from the New Moon onwards. At this time we just need to decide, take a few small steps and practice the art of trust of ourselves and the universal laws of nature.  Once we commit and it’s aligned with our hearts, we’re carried forward on our pathway with relative ease and grace.
 
The upcoming total Lunar Eclipse in Leo promises to activate our divine heart energy!
 
 
18th January: Venus enters Aquarius  at 12.43 pm AEDT
Heart open to the cosmos!
Until 11th February AEDT
Time to let the heart soar:  Our hearts are delivering the cosmic picture...beyond words!
How perfect is this with Venus tipping into Aquarius the day after the New Moon.  Talk about ‘as above, so below’!
The planetary energies are guiding us to join the dots, to honour the earth as an intrinsic part of the cosmos.  We are a planet within a huge energetic creative force.  Our planet is stardust!  It’s not just ‘out there’.  It’s here on earth and we are made of this energetic creation in every cell of our being.  What have we created!  Something that is always exciting, interesting, growing and changing. We are the life force and we need to own it!
 
It’s time to seek the truth of our heart. Be open, be willing, believe!
The divine feminine, ruler of our heart, is looking to the skies with her feet firmly planted on the earth.  What new and exciting energies is she bringing into our hearts?  Aquarius brings idealism and aspirations of spiritual upliftment, dreams of humanity and joining with humanity in the large melting on unification. 
 
The Age of Aquarius:  Creating a new age with innovation and idealism!
We keep looking for the signs of ‘The Age of Aquarius’ and each time we seek that ideal we come a step closer to manifesting it here on earth.  Aquarius is an air sign, ruled by Uranus which brings innovative, leading edge thinking which can offer creative solutions to current problems and issues on the earth.
 
However, we need practical solutions on the earth plane so it is the marrying of this innovative energy stimulating our hearts with the practical grounding energies of the Capricorn planetary line up. This energy is all about bringing our heart dreams into earthly focus.  The Sun moves into Aquarius on 20th January so more cosmic help on the way.

The New Moon/Sun:
Capricorn 27
A MOUNTAIN PILGRIMAGE
This Symbol shows being able to climb high, to rise to occasions, perform well, have a mission and, probably most importantly, to embark on spiritual journeys. Many people travel, but more often than not it implies a spiritual striving; an ascent in consciousness and the ability to transcend earthier, more immediate matters. There is always the desire, or the need, to strive further, to learn more on the path to understanding and transcendence. You may want to follow those that have gone before to achieve a true sense of inner fulfillment. Work towards your own 'mountain top'. The effort may be great, but so are the rewards. Ascent in consciousness. Setting off on a mission. Spiritual, material, corporate or political striving. Rarefied atmospheres. Spiritual journeys. Striving for the highest office.

Hugs all around!
 
Capricorn’s ruler the mountain goat is sure footed and cautious.  Their confidence comes from moving on terrain with the absolute surety that the next step is the right step to gain a foothold. 
 
Just like Saturn, ruler of Capricorn who supports our growth in confidence, power and authority as we demonstrate our mastery of timing, terrain and right action at right time.
 
How many goats can fit on one rock?  They’re ambitious as they seem to pile in, one on top of another!  We can do this esoterically as we all hang out, hang in with the focus, determination and faith in the magical reality.
 
This is the time to find our footing, dispelling the demons of doubt and fear about our worthiness as masters of our domain. Capricorn brings insecurities, fears and doubts into the light as this energy seeks physical and financial security. We’re creating new ways of bringing ourselves into feeling safe in the world.
 
Love and blessings to us all as we support each other energetically moving towards the eclipse portals of the change process.
