Hi everyone!
We’re
coming home to ourselves, to our place of belonging!
What
about me:
Just a
matter of days into the new year of 2017 we’re being called to better times,
healthier and happier days with the promise of fresh starts, at least on the
personal level. World affairs are continuing to shift and turn and will for
some time but this is the year when we bring our focus into ourselves, into our
‘I am’ presence as we find our ‘place of belonging’ within and thus find our
soul tribe for the beginning of a whole new stage of our journey.
Completing
2016 energies...tying off loose ends: Until New Moon in
Aquarius!
The earthy
energies of the Capricorn Sun have carried us through the end of 2016 and into
2017. The Capricorn Sun will be with us until 19th January when it moves into
Aquarius.
Our window
of opportunity, working with the earth’s planetary energies at a deep karmic
level has been assisted by the light of the New Moon in Capricorn on 29th
December which is continuing to bring the lunar energies of 2016 to closure. The
New Moon in Aquarius on 29th January signifies the first New Moon of 2017 and
for that reason can be viewed as the beginning of the lunar New Year. Of
course, the Chinese New Year always starts with this New Moon.
What’s been happening:
6th
to 9th January:
Insights, karmic releases clearing the spiritual
decks...Mercury stationed direct and Sun/Pluto meeting!
Mercury has just moved direct on 8th January on
28 degrees Sagittarius, the galactic centre. The stillness of Mercury’s
‘station, a day either side as well, always offers insights and message from the
higher consciousness. Sitting on the galactic centre, the consciousness
downloads were immense. You may not have felt the full import of these
downloads last weekend as many of us were in the throes of experiencing the
Sun/Pluto connection in Capricorn.
This
meeting of our greatest planetary body, the Sun with Pluto, God of the
Underworld, ruler of life, death, birth and resurrection, took place in the sign
of Capricorn, a sign that carries the energies of karma, earthly karma for us
all. You may have felt the dark forces arising from within you as the earth
released demanding absolute focus on ourselves releasing old karmic wounds, ties
and ancestors.
This past
weekend has set us up for the full moon in Cancer this week, clearing the decks
of so much old energy so we can access the full potential of the Cancer Full
Moon and appreciate the positive forces of this ‘homecoming’!
All
the planets moving direct until 7th February:
Looking to move forward in the
physical world...just a few more pieces of the jigsaw to come in!
There’s been much talk of this on the internet
and facebook indicating that it will be all systems go from 8th January when
Mercury stationed direct. Whilst it is true that the planets are all moving in
direct motion, we need to remember that Mercury is still in shadow retrograde,
retracing steps we took last year and Jupiter is slowing preparing to station
retrograde on 7th February. It’s not quite as straightforward as it may seem.
Sometimes, when we get these messages touted by many as ‘amazing’ energy, it can
sometimes disappoint if you’re not feeling rapid movement forward.
A
time to act and a time to be still: Direct and Retrograde
planets
When
planets move forward it signifies physical action in the world.
When
planets move retrograde it signifies an inner journey a time to be still and
listen, gather information and clarify
One is not
‘better than’ the other. They just call for a different focus. So, keeping
that in mind, we are looking to activate more on the physical level in the
physical world but remaining mindful that the Full Moon in Cancer this week will
be dropping in more information and could well change our direction, possibly
suddenly and dramatically.
We
need Mercury and Mars to get things moving physically:
28th January New Moon in
Aquarius is a good starting time!
Mercury and
Mars are our two ‘movers and shakers’ and Mercury moving into Capricorn on 13th,
the day after the full moon, will certainly urge us to ground some of the mental
energy into the physical dimension. However, we might be waiting on Mars, our
fire and drive who’s on hols at the beach!
Mars on
holiday at the beach until 28th January: Artistic and spiritual inspiration!
Meanwhile Mars is off surfing in Pisces,
releasing some of the fire and drive at the beach. He’s receiving some great
visions and getting in touch with his dreams and the higher consciousness of
Pisces...artistic and spiritual energies are surfacing.
He moves
into his own sign of Aries on 28th January the same day as the New Moon in
Aquarius. That New Moon promises a powerful movement forward if we’re ready to
move with the Mars and Mercury energies, harnessing the new moon energies for
the month following 28th January.
12th January:
Full Moon in Cancer at 22 degrees 27 Cancer at 10.33 pm
AEDT
Insecurities and imbalances are flushed out and laid to rest! Coming
home to ourselves!
Everything
must go: Easy when we go with the flow!
The
planetary line up at this full moon is so powerful it is guaranteed to release
our grip on holding on to the past. What does that mean for us?
It’s not
just about this lifetime...it’s all time, all people, all memories which are
keeping us in the energies of the status quo, repeating mindlessly the patterns
of our lives.
Cancer
rules:
The
past, memories, childhood, family, home and the ancestors!
The
planetary line up at this full moon is big and potent guaranteeing the dropping
off all that doesn’t serve our growth and expansion. There’s nothing wrong with
the past until it interferes and controls us in making decisions and being our
true selves. That means the embedded memories as well as conditioning must be
released so we can be more expansive, so we can create the new paradigm of life
on earth.
The
filters of memories falling away: Masks off!
How many years have so many of us been working
on this release process, layer after layer of cell memories and ancestral karmic
burdens.
Well this
full moon’s a beauty which is helping us cut through so much residue to come
home to who we are this lifetime, without the filters of memories from other
times, places and people.
Theme for this Full
Moon: Securing an emotional
and physical sense of security
Breaking out, breaking free, clearing karma
and finding our ‘I am’!
‘Home is where the
heart is’...feel safe!
Coming home an ongoing theme for us all
throughout time:
The theme
of coming home is throughout literature and the stories of this planet.
Symbolically it represents coming home to ourselves as the heroes of our own
lives. We see Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz wanting to go home from Oz, Alice in
Wonderland trying to find her way home and of course ‘Lord of the Rings’ with
Frodo and his friends returning home to the Shire, Hobbit town as we can see
left. Joseph Campbell is one amongst many who has talked of this theme in ‘The
Hero’s Journey’, reminiscent of ‘The Prodigal Son’ in the bible.
The
journey of the spiritual warrior: Harnessing our energies through faith in our
spiritual selves!
When we
come home in these stories we have been to places of mystery and magic, facing
dangers and challenges, travelling the way of the spiritual warrior working with
our mind, emotions and often physical challenges which call us to harness all
our spiritual power, to come through as wiser, more loving and compassionate
than before. We are uplifted as humans living in higher consciousness.
Feel secure in yourself: Reassure
your inner child/children and drop fears and doubts!
Security is the key word for both of these
signs.
Emotional security for Cancer and physical/material security for
Capricorn.
The moon is
Cancer’s ruling planet so it’s always a big one emotionally bringing to light
any emotional insecurities which will be stimulating us to find the emotional
security within. With the Sun in Capricorn opposite the Full Moon we’re looking
at ‘physical’ insecurities which could include financial affairs as well as our
working lives.
Grand Cross, grand challenge and opportunity: Crossroads of change and
opportunity
Drop the ‘burdens’ and choose the ‘I am’ path!
Packing a punch: We are changing for the better!
This one’s going to pack a punch and shift us through a Grand Cross in the cardinal signs...Cancer, Capricorn, Aries, Libra. The cardinal signs are related to initiating, getting things going so this will be an interesting full moon planetary line up as we come to understandings and insights through the squares and oppositions evident at this time.
The planets are in oppositions and squares to each other, just like a crossroads. Crossroads call for choices. Take notice of the Cheshire cat’s message to Alice in Wonderland in the picture above.
We are travelling all roads at once!
Crossroads
of change: Freedom calls!

The four directions and energies: Keywords...
Full Moon in Cancer:
Memories, emotional, release, ancestors
Sun in Capricorn:
Planetary, physical, karmic
Uranus in Aries:
Freedom, breakthrough, ‘I am’
Jupiter in Libra: Equity, Justice, Balance, Love
Challenges if we resist,
opportunities if we allow and go with it all:
As we let go, feel the emotions
and invoke freedom we are freed from the past!
Squares and
oppositions represent challenges and also opportunities! This is our chance to
shift whatever remains of those energies clinging to the past, to tradition, to
memories resonating with any emotional or physical insecurities.
Something
is coming into balance:
Our ‘I am’ breaks through and calls for karmic justice
as Uranus our freedom fighter challenges Jupiter in Libra!
Uranus in Aries is still firing the rockets of
freedom through our beings as we reach for some justice, equity and expansion
coming through Jupiter in Libra. It could be a battle royal if we let it take
us down the path of struggle and resistance. We have our light sword of truth
in hand ready to cut free of those restrictions arising from the past, the
conditioning, the memories.
This is
about feeling the fire within whilst calmly reaching for the calm place within.
Let the lightning striker of Uranus in Aries open the door of our self-imposed
jail and demand karmic justice and release as we cut the karmic threads of the
past and the karmic burdens we’ve been carrying. There’s never been a better
time to stop the struggle and choose the path of peace and love for
ourselves.
Something
comes to a head!
A tipping point as emotions erupt and spill out with the Full
Moon! Planet earth is releasing!
The nurturing energies of the Cancer full moon,
sign of the divine mother, the home, childhood home and family as well as
ancestors are calling us home to ourselves to that emotional security we hold
within us. We are taken back to the past to free fragments and pieces left
behind in times of trauma...whether from childhood, cell memories of other times
and places, our planetary family. We reclaim and release with love, feeling any
pain and suffering, grief, anger, resentment, bitterness, fear...any emotion
that is holding us back from joy, fulfilment and divine love.
Death of
the old and a resurrection into the light:
The
Capricorn Sun, in such close proximity to Pluto the Lord of the Underworld,
life, death, rebirth and resurrection is flushing out the memory banks from
within our earthly bodies, the earthly dimension on all levels. It’s a mass
exodus from the earth and its peoples as emotions and memories are brought to
the surface. Allowing ourselves to feel these emotions deeply can release them
from our bodies
Chiron is a significant player at
this full moon: Releasing spiritual wounds!
Sitting on 21 degrees
Pisces!
Chiron in Pisces releasing the collective
consciousness of emotional and spiritual wounds is in harmonious conversation
with both the Full Moon and the Sun as well as making significant connections
with Uranus and Jupiter.
The biggest message from Chiron at
this time is a square to Saturn: Karmic clearing is being
activated!
A great opportunity to let go of those old
beliefs which are undermining us as Saturn in Sagittarius is clearing so much of
our mindsets which have kept us stuck in the status quo. Also, Saturn rewards
any small steps we take to move forward, to build a new foundation in our life
which will better support us in the world. The new foundation may well be a new
belief about the nature of reality, truth, the cosmos, religion, spirituality,
philosophy.
The
Capricorn Sun working with the Full Moon and the planetary line up is calling us
on to access our deepest ambitions: First clear the decks!
Let’s take
back and reclaim that word ‘ambition’ as an expression of the driving force
within us. the motivation to excel and to fulfil our greatest potential. For
too long it’s been seen as a ‘dirty’ word implying a ruthless desire to walk
over everyone. In fact, without ambition we’d never get anywhere. We may not
be able to specify the ambition in worldly terms but our heart knows that it
desires joy, happiness and love and is motivating us with the flame of desire
and ambition. We need clarity that our ambition is aligned with our spirit.
Without that we cannot move forward and grow.

THE MEETING OF A STUDY GROUP OR
LITERARY SOCIETY
This Symbol shows the necessity of gathering together with
those of like mind in order to exchange or share ideas and information. In
society, the search for meaning should always be made in order to enrich not
only yourself but those around you. Finding the best way to describe something
creates the opportunity for greater access by the collective. This can show
websites, magazines, newspapers, books; any place that people gather together in
order to give an objective view of what’s happening in the culture in order to
gain a better understanding of what makes society tick. Shared knowledge. Print
media, newspapers, libraries, written word. Critics. Diaries, records and
minutes of meetings. Talk back radio. Discussions. Letters to the editor.
The Caution: Falsifying of ideas. Propaganda spread by media. Intellectual smugness which excludes non-establishment thought. Chatting instead of doing. Being critical.

A SOLDIER RECEIVING TWO AWARDS FOR BRAVERY
IN COMBAT
This Symbol shows being able to receive praise,
awards or rewards when they are due. We often need to be acknowledged for the
issues or causes we’ve fought for and the battles we’ve endured. True deeds of
valor and bravery should be rewarded. Whether you are rewarded, respected or
recognized, for the good things you’ve done or not, you’ll know that you’ve done
them. You will find that your efforts will, at some time, be recognized and some
appreciation, payment or compensation will be offered. You may also be the one
who needs to recognize others’ achievements. Subsequent awards are often greater
than the first because the dangers are well understood. Repeated bravery.
Medals, tributes or honors given. Insurance or legal claims. Giving thanks.
Recognition for persistence. Award ceremonies. Posthumous awards.
The Caution: 'Awards' as band-aids for the purposes of assuaging the guilt of the populace so often produced in war. Desperate for recognition. Rejection lines. Bribery

Lynda’s
new spot for her lunar reports: https://sabiansymbols.com/the-sabian-symbols-lunar-blog-has-a-new-home-on-this-site/
As
I sent this out, she has not yet posted for this Full Moon in Cancer, so just
check back if it doesn’t immediately show.
A good time for ‘cutting the ties that bind’: Cutting the ‘karmic’
ties...see attached Word document
I
have included a very summarised version of a process I’ve used for years. This
process was introduced by Phyllis Krystal in her book ‘Cutting the Ties that
Bind’ and further elaborated in another book by her ‘Cutting more Ties that
Bind’. I’m sure many of you are familiar with this process and with Phyllis
Krystal.
It’s about ‘karmic’ ties, the karmic connections
which we keep revisiting each life looking for resolution, reconnection and
healing. If we choose to live this lifetime in the truth of this lifetime, then
we need to release these karmic filters which more often than not re-enact
relationships and situations from other times and places. This is not about
cutting the ties with this lifetime or the people in our lives this lifetime.
However, I’m of the view that we need to cut the karmic ties with everyone we
know so equity and harmony can be restored. This is all about freedom...for you
and for others. As we free ourselves, we free others and the whole dynamics of
relationships can change in an instant.
You
need to be in a state of readiness for this to work. The planetary energies are
very conducive to successful release of karmic ties at this time. However, you
will have to be in a place of trust and willingness to act on it. It won’t work
if you’re looking back with longing and regret. The commitment must be there.
13th January:
Mercury enters Capricorn at 3.03 am AEDT moving
direct...easy does it!
Until
7th February
Getting ready to take to the heights:
Have no fear...Capricorn is a cautious sign and gives safety
checks!
Mercury’s
still in shadow but now feeling like he wants to get things moving in a more
physical manifestation as he moves into Capricorn. It’s okay to get a few
things in place from now through to 27th January and prepare the way for setting
up some new possibilities.
Setting
up some options and continued clearing of old ‘stuff’: Mercury still in shadow
until 27th!
Mercury moves out of Sagittarius just after the
moon comes to fullness so the message is pretty clear that we’re shifting some
of mental energy by setting the stage physically. This may include clearing our
living and work spaces or possibly exploring some options with regard to work.
Just remember that the Full Moon clearance is continuing for about 3 days after
the Full Moon so we may not have full clarity. Having a clearance physically may
unearth some old ideas which had been put aside.
In
charge of our mental faculties: Seeking the fresh ground for our new
ideas!
Now we have
our mind power taking to the Capricorn heights, expanding our ambition to a
state of joy in the excellence of our mental discipline and commitment. We are
climbing our own personal mountain in choosing to take charge of our thoughts
and beliefs, letting go of the scattered thinking and paying attention to our
own awareness. A good mantra for this time is ‘I choose what thoughts I allow
to come into my mind’!
Being
fully prepared mentally we set the ground rules for the launching of new
projects, employment:
Mercury is
our mind manager, our networker and ruler of commerce and business. In
Capricorn, he wants to get things moving but the Capricorn energy will encourage
small steps at this stage, getting everything in place so the initiation of new
ventures in the physical world will flow easily and effortlessly. This is the
time to do that groundwork, legwork, networking and setting up the management
system for the governance of such ventures.
Choosing
the joy of ‘work’ should be uppermost in our minds:
Be aware of the financially
driven workaholic!
Capricorn urges us to seek financial and physical
security and success in the environment where we can excel. Attending to the
practical details and honouring the system whilst being open to opportunities is
the way to go. Capricorn is a sign of initiative and although it likes
tradition, the tried and true method, Mercury will temper that with his mental
agility and opportunistic streak. This could all work very well if we stay
tuned to our heart’s desires. The shadow side of Capricorn is chasing the money
at the expense of the joy of life.

Hugs all around!
Love and
blessings to us all as we take the steps to release past burdens and come home
to the truth of who we are, to the feeling of emotional and physical security.
Without
doubt we need to really have these feelings of inner security as we observe the
outer world crumbling, truths being exposed and the power brokers who have been
running this planet gradually being exposed for who they are.
We need to
remain focussed on our personal goals of love and truth and expressing those in
the world in whatever way we can. It’s hard to get to the truth in the outer
world with so many voices arguing with and discounting each other.
However,
this year as we emanate our truth and love we will draw to each other magnetically
with little effort. Our soul connections will be attracted by the light of who
we are and we will be strengthened in our unity.
