We are heading toward the Full Moon on December 11 at 11:12
PM CST at 19 Gemini. The Moon is directly opposite the Sun in Sagittarius
making this a social and mental Full Moon, encouraging us to talk things out, gather
information, communicate and look at everything from multiple angles. With
Jupiter in Capricorn the emphasis is on responsibility and practicality.
With the triple conjunction of Saturn, Venus and Pluto in
Capricorn, we may be facing a crisis in relationships, values or finances at
this time. The Full Moon brings tension
between our personal and work lives. We may feel overwhelmed and directionless
due to the Moon and Sun square Neptune.
Capricorn asks: What really matters? What needs to be
corrected or discarded in your life? Look to Capricorn in your natal chart to
see how this Full Moon shines a light on your personal responsibilities and
priorities.
Yesterday, November 12, 2019 we had a Full Moon at 19◦ Taurus opposite Mercury Retrograde, which had just transited the Sun on portentous 11/11/19! Not much sleep for me I have to say, but this impacted my natal chart exactly, so there is that.
The Full Moon, which is about completion, in Taurus urges us to find a safe haven, to focus on our home, family and close relationships while giving us the determination and persistence to get whatever needs doing done.
Just two weeks ago, on October 27, the New Moon in Scorpio, began working with Uranus to exhume hidden secrets and bring them to the light of day. This has been glaringly obvious on the world stage and may have also been true for you personally as well.
Scorpio transforms people and situations by bringing up, sometimes painfully, all the hidden secrets and debris from the past, especially issues around sex, death and big power. Uranus is unpredictable and can shake things up in very unexpected ways.
The Full Moon brings us the workhorse Taurus energy to address how we can best take care of the debris that is left; what should we keep and what should we discard? There are several aspects going on with this Full Moon that bring added challenges and blessings. Although there may be communication challenges, our intuitive abilities and spiritual connections should be heightened for the near future. We are also given powerful energy for personal transformation and special blessings for success.
The Moon is almost full as I write this on October 10, 2019 and
it is beautiful in the night sky. It will be officially full this coming Sunday,
October 13 at 20◦ Aries and brings with it an array of challenging
aspects.
The fiery Get it Started strength of Aries makes this
a good time to set and act on your intentions. However, there are challenging
aspects to consider.
The Sun in legal and fair-minded Libra squares Pluto (the great revealer) in Capricorn (control, integrity, politics), brings turmoil. Hidden and possible criminal information can become known at this time. Pluto brings destruction, purging and release in order to pave the way for new and positive transformation. Pluto rules big power and the struggles between the people and governments.
Full Moon square Pluto can bring up emotional power
struggles, compulsive behavior, fears and violence. Venus in Scorpio is
opposite Uranus in Taurus, shaking things up and bringing emphasis to Pluto’s
actions and what we value.
Jupiter square Neptune causes us to be easily misled, either
by others or by our own delusional thinking.
Challenging squares to Saturn can result in delays and emphasizes taking
care of responsibilities.
All is not lost as positive aspects to beneficial Jupiter
soften the impact of this tumultuous energy.
At the Full Moon, the Sun and Moon are in exact opposition, exactly
180◦
apart. This brings matters ruled by the Moon to the forefront while creating
tension between those governed by both of these great lights. Matters ruled by
the Sun (power, work, ego, action) are in tension to those ruled by the Moon (nurturing,
home, intuition, emotion).
The effect of a Full Moon lasts about two weeks and intuition
and emotions are high. This particular Full Moon brings opportunities to heal
relationships.
The Full Moon is the result of the opposition of the Sun and Moon. The Sun in Virgo and the Moon in the opposite sign of Pisces creates a polarity between these major luminaries. Virgo is all about details, order, physical health and work contrasted with Pisces which is concerned with the big picture, disorder, spiritual health and dreams. It is important to work with both energies at this time.
Extreme Neptune
The Full Moon on September 14th is conjunct Neptune which rules Pisces, empowering the following two weeks for expanded sensitivity, perception and spiritual connection. This double whammy Neptunian energy can bring feelings of insecurity and the possibility for deception and self-delusion. Be sure to make a reality check.
Caution
There are several interesting and strong aspects happening at the same time which can create the potential for discord, upset, confusion and disappointment. The dark side of Neptune can bring addiction, escapism and delusion. There is a tendency for excess and overconfidence. You can also be angrier now and more selfish, causing problems with relationships.
On a Positive Note
There are several very helpful aspects formed at this time that provide structure and powerful support for your deep emotional and intuitive explorations.
Summary
This Full Moon brings the potential for rebirth
and a new beginning
Be aware of what is real and what is not
Temper your emotional responses to protect your
relationships
Pay attention to your dreams and intuition
Let go of the deteriorating parts of your life and
welcome the opening path for regeneration.
