​Welcome, Full Moon in Cancer 🌕 ♋️⁣

⁣
This full moon brings the 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘦𝘤𝘵 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘳𝘦𝘧𝘭𝘦𝘤𝘵 𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘳. We've had an unusual year of two full moons and two new moons in Cancer in 2020, highlighting time and time again the themes of 𝙝𝙤𝙢𝙚, 𝙛𝙖𝙢𝙞𝙡𝙮, 𝙧𝙤𝙤𝙩𝙨, 𝙨𝙖𝙛𝙚𝙩𝙮, 𝙨𝙚𝙘𝙪𝙧𝙞𝙩𝙮, 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙩.⁣
⁣
Uninhibited, this full moon shines brightly in her home sign, and 𝘄𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝘆 𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁.⁣
⁣
For reflection... 📝⁣
⁣
♋️ Did you face any challenges in family dynamics? If so, what did you learn from these challenges?⁣
⁣
♋️ What insights did you gain around history, roots, or lineage that you can carry into 2021?⁣
⁣
♋️ Did your thinking (or feeling) around what it means to feel safe change this year? What does it mean to you now? Do a 5 minute, of stream-of-consciousness writing on feeling safe.⁣
⁣
♋️ Did your relationship to your body, and/or food shift this year?⁣
⁣
♋️ Emotions are a big theme of Cancer and the Moon. Did you explore your emotions in a deeper way? How has your relationship with your emotional landscape changed since January of 2020?⁣
⁣
♋️What brought you comfort this year?⁣
⁣
𝗙𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗿 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀! 𝗪𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿. ⁣
⁣
Wishing you many blessings on this last full moon of 2020.⁣
⁣
Warmly,⁣

THE GREAT CONJUNCTION

THE GREAT CONJUNCTION. December 21st, 2020.⁣
⁣
Welcome to a new 20 year cycle. Coinciding with the Winter Solstice tomorrow, we have a major planetary alignment: 𝗝𝘂𝗽𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗷𝘂𝗻𝗰𝘁 𝗦𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗻. It only happens once every 20 years. This conjunction is also setting up a new 200 year cycle elementally, as it happens at 0 degrees Aquarius - out of the Earth signs and into the Air. 𝘊𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘶𝘱𝘰𝘯 𝘪𝘴.⁣
⁣
I doubt that things will suddenly be different in a really tangible way, it's not a magic trick. However, I do expect this next 20 years (and longer) to take on a new tone as it gains momentum.⁣
⁣
We will see & feel & participate in this collectively.⁣
⁣
Collectively we may 𝙧𝙚𝙞𝙣𝙫𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙝𝙤𝙬 𝙬𝙚 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙢𝙪𝙣𝙞𝙘𝙖𝙩𝙚, 𝙖𝙨 𝙬𝙚𝙡𝙡 𝙖𝙨 𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙢𝙪𝙣𝙞𝙩𝙮. New systems may be established, replacing old outdated ones. Let's make them more equal.⁣
⁣
Individually, where this shift takes place depends on the placement in your own chart. 𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙘𝙝𝙤𝙤𝙨𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙥𝙪𝙩 𝙛𝙤𝙘𝙪𝙨 𝙤𝙣 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙗𝙚 𝙞𝙣𝙛𝙪𝙨𝙚𝙙 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙢𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙪𝙢, 𝙜𝙞𝙫𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙖 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙡𝙤𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙢 𝙨𝙪𝙘𝙘𝙚𝙨𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝 𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙜𝙞𝙘 𝙥𝙡𝙖𝙣𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜.⁣
⁣
Wishing you a wonderful new cycle!!⁣

New Moon Eclipse in Sagittarius: Monday Dec 14

12/14/2020

0 Comments

 
Picture
New moons are generally a time to embark, initiate, or implement.

But an eclipse brings shadows. Beginning a new venture with clouded information or intentions isn't ideal.

Particularly with this eclipse - as simultaneously mercury conjuncts the south node, i.e. that which we're moving away from. This eclipse asks us:

  • What do we need to let go of in order to move forward?
  • What communication styles are we done with?
  • What thought patterns are we ready to leave behind because they are no longer serving us?

There is added planetary potential to best make use of this eclipse, which is positive: Mercury trines Mars, which helps us with the energy to change, and Venus sextiles Jupiter which helps propel us with and towards a place of love and optimism.

Still, there are crevices which we can't see into, unknowns that will be revealed as the next 6 months unfold. Jupiter is still in Capricorn until Saturday Dec 19 - meaning it's in a sign where it's not able to be its best self, an uncomfortable environment that's been hard to thrive in (for the last year).

The way forward in this one...

Ask yourself: What inner patterns are no longer serving me? Take a big breath, and lovingly let go.

Remind yourself that letting go is not always a 'once done' event, but a process. Patterns are just that - places we return to. Commit to letting go, catching it if it returns, and gently letting go again. (And again.) Humour helps: Oh THIS pattern again... I see you, but see ya ✌🏽

For the area in your life you're feeling driven to move forward in, simply take your time to allow for all the information you need to come forward first. It will. Trust.

Lighten up a bit. I'm all for self-work and reflection, but it can be heavy at times. Sag likes a jovial time. Do something fun (but safe/responsible pls 😷).

Mind your livers. Sagittarius rules the liver. Things that support the Liver Qi in Chinese Medicine are:
  1. Exercise - ramp it up during Sag season.
  2. Bitters - foods or tinctures. Speak to an herbalist if you've never taken liver support herbs before. Not safe during pregnancy.
  3. If you're going to drink alcohol, drink in moderation. Sag likes to indulge, and without some personal restraint, can get a little carried away with festivities. Love your liver. Drink sparingly, or have some fun with non-alcoholic, low sugar cocktails.

Stay true to your values and your truth, your authenticity. From this place you can handle whatever comes your way.

Full Moon Eclipse in Gemini: November 30, 2020

11/29/2020

0 Comments

𝗙𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗠𝗼𝗼𝗻 𝗘𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗽𝘀𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗚𝗲𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗶: This Monday Nov 30th⁣
⁣
A full moon is like turning up the volume, a heightened energy that can be either creative & energizing or it can be reckless & overwhelming. A full moon eclipse is, well, even more jacked up - ‼️🌖‼️⁣
⁣
With Gemini in particular, it might feel like your nervous system has been plugged into a socket, a power surge of energy is completely over-stimulating or anxiety provoking. Gemini keeps things head-y. Your hair might feel your hair standing on end 🤯⁣
⁣
An eclipse can also bring up a sudden letting go, especially with a full moon eclipse. It can be a powerful release, if we surrender to it - that is if we can let go of resistance to what we are called to let go of.⁣
⁣
It's the first of a few Gemini/Sagittarius axis eclipses next year, so it also sets the stage for themes in your life that may play out over the next 6 months.⁣
⁣
A few tips:⁣
⁣
#1: 𝗠𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗱. Be kind in your thoughts, especially the narratives you have about yourself.⁣
⁣
#2: It will be extra important to 𝗽𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝘀𝗹𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗵𝘆𝗴𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗲 with this one: No screen time before bed. If you usually give yourself 30min, double it. If you usually need an hour of unwinding, take two.⁣
⁣
#3: Calming 𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗼𝗶𝗹𝘀 can also help, as Gemini rules the lungs (which in Chinese Medicine controls our smell). Scents like lavender, camomile, and pachouli.⁣
⁣
#4: 𝗠𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝘁. Especially before bed. Use oil to support the nervous system. (Bonus: you can combine a few drops of essential oils in the carrier oil for the massage. A 2-for-1!)⁣
⁣
#5: 𝗔𝗰𝘂𝗽𝘂𝗻𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲. I'd be remiss not to mention this one here, as easing the nervous system is one of the things acupuncture does best!⁣
⁣
𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘦𝘭𝘴𝘦 𝘥𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘥𝘰 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥?⁣
⁣
Sending y'all some love for this one. #BeKind and #MindYourMind⁣

New Moon, New Depths

𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗠𝗼𝗼𝗻 𝗜𝗻 𝗦𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗽𝗶𝗼 𝗡𝗼𝘃 𝟭𝟱 #♏️#🌑⁣
⁣
There's a new path ahead of us. ⁣
⁣
𝘽𝙪𝙩 𝙬𝙚 𝙢𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙠 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙟𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙣𝙚𝙮.⁣
⁣
With this new moon, 𝘪𝘵'𝘴 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘬 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘮𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘢𝘭 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨.⁣
⁣
You might really feel like going inwards with this Scorpio moon, keeping your dreams or intentions private for now. That's okay. 𝘚𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘥𝘦𝘱𝘵𝘩𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘚𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘱𝘪𝘰 is where you're meant to be.⁣
⁣
Where you choose to direct this energy is getting a helping hand from both Jupiter (the planet of opportunity & growth) and Mars (now direct, ruling Scorpio) - offering support, like the wind at your back. 🖐⁣
⁣
𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲, 𝘁𝗼 𝗶𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗴𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻, 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. You can't rush divine or planetary timing. So allow yourself to be exactly where you are.⁣

This Fri: Not your average new moon!โฃ

10/14/2020

0 Comments

 
Picture


⁣
The Oct 16 new moon in Libra isn't your typical 🌚 Usually they present opportune times to set intentions or initiate new projects... Not this one.⁣
⁣
This new moon is in a T-square formation, opposing Mars while squaring Saturn & Pluto. Aaaaaand during a Mercury retrograde🤦‍♀️ ⁣
⁣
MEANING:⁣
⁣
𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗺𝗼𝗼𝗻 𝗺𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆. (And not for one day - it sets the tone for a few weeks ahead.)⁣
⁣
If you try to set a new goal, especially a lofty one, it‘s likely to be extra difficult to come to fruition. The squares & opposition may present limitations, frustrations, power struggles & delays... not an energy that helps projects take flight!⁣
⁣
A new moon in Libra just wants balance & peace - but it’ll meet factors that feel they're pulling you out of balance🙃⁣
⁣
TIPS:⁣
⁣
♎️ Rather than starting a grand new venture, instead use this energy to 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙩𝙚𝙘𝙩 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙮𝙤𝙪'𝙫𝙚 𝙜𝙤𝙩. Our energy is vital. We need it for navigating difficult conversations that may arise, and the things we're forced to deal with that we don't really want to be dealing with.⁣
⁣
♎️ 𝗖𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗗𝗜𝗣𝗟𝗢𝗠𝗔𝗖𝗬 in your conversations with others - and yourself. That sensitivity with others and self will help you through. Because remember - this transit is happening to everyone!⁣
⁣
♎️ Take the time & focus to 𝙧𝙚𝙫𝙞𝙚𝙬 the projects - personal or professional - you already have in the works. Is there something you need to let go of or find a new system for, to take them to the next level?⁣
⁣
♎️ 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁: Just because it might not feel great, doesn't mean it's wrong. This one is built to help us grow. Don't dispare, do the work, watch you grow 🌿 ⁣
⁣
♎️ And lastly, 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗳𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳! (I’ve said this a lot this year and will probably keep sayin’ it!) Let that be another positive aspect of this new moon. ⁣
⁣
♎️ 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲, 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗕𝗘 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲. Tend to your energy. Celebrate the small wins.⁣
⁣
⁣
#♎️ #🌚⁣

PS I'm lovin' the Astro-Street-Art in my 'hood! You know you're in the right place when... (the woo finds you 😉)

Mantras for Oct 1st Full Moon in Aries

10/1/2020

0 Comments

 
Picture
FULL MOON IN ARIES⁣
⁣
Tomorrow’s full moon is FULL ON, and I've got two mantras to help you through it - keep reading 🔻!⁣
⁣
Aries is a fire sign and rules the head. It's why you might be feeling like this right now: 🤯⁣
⁣
Or... partially why. In addition:⁣
⁣
Mars, a fiery planet that's retrograde in Aries right now, is squaring Saturn - MEANING: You want to go forward but you're being forced to slow down. It's like trying to hit the gas pedal with the brakes on. 🤦‍♀️⁣
⁣
Inside the body, this stop and go energy inside inside us, from a Chinese medicine standpoint, stagnates the Liver qi - MEANING: it creates pent up frustration & heat which does all sorts of un-fun things to the body: headaches, muscle tension, sore necks, etc.⁣
⁣
The energy has to go somewhere, and if it can't go where you want it to go today due to circumstances beyond your control, instead: do some cardio exercise, shout in your pillow, punch the air, cry, or dance like nobody's watching (even if they are) 💃🏼⁣
⁣
And now... your MANTRAS:⁣
⁣
1) “I check my ego at the gate."⁣
⁣
2) “Patience...(aaaaand more patience)."⁣
⁣
You may not love these mantras 🤣[I made no promises that this would feel good 😉]⁣
⁣
If you're a human, you have an ego. It's not a bad thing. But an ego that's too big or two small isn't in highest service of yourself nor others. Having an honest and balanced relationship with the ego is what we’re especially called to do right now. ⁣
⁣
And transits aren't all 'bad'. Positive aspects of this one include:⁣
⁣
It can spark ACTION. The urge to DO something - to work though some of the themes that have been plaguing you this last month.⁣
⁣
And if you're someone who has a hard time speaking up for yourself (ie ego too small) then you might get that surge of energy to speak up or assert your boundaries.⁣
⁣
Personally, I always feel so much better during full moons than new moons. With the moon the ruler of my cart, a full moon seems to give me a burst of creative energy that I love.⁣
⁣
In the spirit of ego, here's a selfie at the end of an epic week last week where I was feelin' surprisingly perky 🙃 👍🏾⁣
⁣
Hang in there this week. We'll get through this.⁣

My choice of acupuncture point for the new moon in Virgo

9/17/2020

Third Eye Acupuncture Point ("Yin Tang") 👁 ⁣
⁣
My choice of acupuncture point for the new moon in Virgo 👌🏽 ⁣
⁣
Virgo is all about MIND/BODY connection, and the autonomic nervous system. ⁣
⁣
The word that comes up for me with a new moon in Virgo is “𝘈𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘯𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵”.⁣
⁣
What is aligned with our authentic self, and what isn’t? Virgo gets picky, sorting through details and reorganizing us - for good reason. We are prepping for fall, for letting go of excess in order to feel balanced during Libra season. ⁣
⁣
I’ve definitely been feeling this Virgo season, where “getting my ducks in a row” has been the primary theme! Decluttering at home, organizing some behind the scenes biz, taking charge of my health, and planning some fall studies… ! 🦆 🦆 🦆 !⁣
⁣
BUT without 𝙜𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙙 insight, the Virgo energy can have us caught in a head-spin. If we’re unable to connect our mind, body, emotions, spirit, we can get lost in the details - and end up frazzled 2 weeks in. If uncentered, this can wreak havoc on our psyche... and ultimately our body. ⁣
⁣
So take stock this new moon: am I organizing my life in a manner - and a pace - that’s aligned with who I am? ⁣
⁣
If you can get clarity on this, you can really harness this new moon in Virgo. Why? Because 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗺𝗼𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝗦𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗻, which can set the stage for sustainability through the actions we make today. 🙌🏽 💯 ⁣
⁣
With the new moon trining Saturn, it’s a good day to set systems in place that help us build our future. But our intentions need to be clear, and aligned. ⁣
⁣
Acupuncture always helps me with insight and alignment, and I love working on this level with my patients. ⁣

Mars Retrograde 2020: What it could mean for you

9/9/2020

0 Comments

 
Picture
It’s here: the epic 2020 𝙈𝙖𝙧𝙨 𝙧𝙚𝙩𝙧𝙤𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙙𝙚. ⁣
⁣
The planet of passion is treading backwards in some intense planetary terrain (squaring Saturn + a bunch of other tricky aspects). ⁣
⁣
Here’s what it means for YOU:⁣
⁣
Notice: where have you been feeling a 𝙥𝙪𝙨𝙝 in your life these days? In what realm of your life have you identified 𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙚𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙨, 𝙙𝙧𝙞𝙫𝙚, potentially 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙛𝙡𝙞𝙘𝙩, and/or a 𝙨𝙪𝙧𝙜𝙚 𝙞𝙣 𝙚𝙣𝙚𝙧𝙜𝙮 𝙩𝙤𝙬𝙖𝙧𝙙𝙨? This is likely where Mars is transiting in your chart, and this theme will continue - increasing in focus - over the next 2+ months. ⁣
⁣
Note: 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗶𝗴𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸. ⁣
⁣
Please: Don’t rush. (𝘠𝘰𝘶’𝘳𝘦 𝘨𝘰𝘯𝘯𝘢 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘳𝘶𝘴𝘩𝘦𝘥)⁣
⁣
Remember: Don’t panic (𝘺𝘢 𝘮𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘱𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘤 𝘢 𝘭𝘪’𝘭 𝘣𝘪𝘵)⁣
⁣
Instead: 𝗜𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗳𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗮 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄𝘁𝗵 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂. (𝘎𝘶𝘭𝘱! 𝘐 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸. 𝘒𝘦𝘦𝘱 𝘨𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨!) Shine the light there, and use Saturn’s disciplined energy & wisdom to set systems in place to help you learn and grow successfully in this area. It can also be an issue in the world or society that may be calling you to action. The same applies here. ⁣
⁣
The harsh truth: This is supposed to take time, despite feeling impatient with it all and perhaps facing obstacles as you go along. ⁣
⁣
The way through: For the impatient energy, do some physical movement (not reckless but physical) to help release that. This will help you can stay focused on doing the work - sustainably.⁣
⁣
The plus side: Though it may feel intense, it’s also exciting. You are getting the growth you need, working towards your Warrior Certification in this area of life. 💪🏽 ⁣
⁣
Lastly: Take some deep breaths. Slow down, remember the long-game approach to sustain the drive to the finish line. Trust the process. Warriors can be gentle on themselves and others. True strength is cultivated by nurturing within. ⁣
⁣
DM me your birth info if you want to know what area of your chart Mars is transiting. :) ⁣

Welcome Virgo Season and the Full Moon in Pisces

𝘚𝘦𝘱𝘵 𝟷 𝘢𝘭𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘺! 𝗛𝗼𝘄’𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗩𝗶𝗿𝗴𝗼 𝘀𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝗼 𝗳𝗮𝗿? ♍️⁣
⁣
I’m loving it, as it gives me the 𝙪𝙧𝙜𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙥𝙪𝙧𝙜𝙚! Nicely aligned with the 𝘔𝘦𝘵𝘢𝘭 𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 in Chinese medicine - which is all about 𝘳𝘦𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 and the process of 𝘭𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘨𝘰 that the fall season brings. ⁣
⁣
Tomorrow we’ve got a 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗺𝗼𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝗣𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗲𝘀 ♓️, giving us a dreamy break from the Virgo details. If you let yourself dream, 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘮𝘢𝘺 𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘦𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘴𝘶𝘥𝘥𝘦𝘯 𝘦𝘱𝘪𝘱𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘰𝘳 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘴 (Sun trine Uranus)⚡️. At the same time, you may may not like what it revels. With Venus opposing Saturn there is the potential for discord in relating with others (perhaps with authority or partnerships or interactions that require a lot of bureaucracy or red tape). ⁣
⁣
But overall it looks positive. 𝘼𝙡𝙡𝙤𝙬 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙨𝙚𝙡𝙛 𝙩𝙤 𝙙𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙢, 𝙩𝙤 𝙗𝙚 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙤 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙢𝙞𝙨𝙚, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙤 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙮 𝙤𝙥𝙚𝙣 𝙩𝙤 𝙥𝙤𝙨𝙨𝙞𝙗𝙞𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙞𝙚𝙨. ⁣
