🍑 Moon Into Virgo

As the moon moves into virgo we may be seeing preparation for the winter ahead. Emotional preparation too can herald a time of new beginnings

🍑 Moon is in it's third quater meaning we are fast approaching the new moon. At this time boundaries between the subconscious and unconscious become thinner.

🍑 At this time of year we have also just moved into sagittarius season. This kind of moon during this season can herald a powerful leap ahead within the subconscious world.

🍑 Moon opposition saturn in pisces can indicate more unconscious insight about clashes with authority e.g. "why am I acting this way?"

🍑 moon in this phase makes influence of water on us shrink. you may feel more spiritual inland or on mountains and in valleys

🍑 this moon brings calming earth energies down ley, water and dragon lines and is a great time to ground yourself if you live near any of these

🍑 this kind of moon can increase intuition to do with the earth and buried history. you may feel more spiritual if you live near old historic areas.

Thank You!

This final Full Moon of 2024 sits at 23° Gemini, in the sign’s third decan, governed by the Sun ✨☉✨ (Chaldean) and Mars’ bound. This decan is represented by The Executioner’s Sword, signaling a moment for sharp decisions and the cutting away of outdated dualities.

The Omega symbol for this degree is “A man who heals water, be it in lakes, rivers, the ocean, or a glass.” This lunation can be used as an opportunity to clear emotional blockages, allowing healing to restore clarity and balance to your inner world. Take this moment to release what no longer serves you and make space for the new, letting your emotional waters flow freely once more.

With her Moon and Saturn both at 20° Gemini, ✨Dita Von Teese✨ embodies the balance between emotional complexity and intellectual discipline. This convergence manifests in her burlesque performances, where she fuses creative expression with an elegant display of focused precision. The duality of Gemini’s intellect and Saturn’s structure is clear in her work, which requires both spontaneous flair and meticulous attention to detail.

Butterfly weed (milkweed) holds spiritual significance in Native American cultures, particularly among the Lakota and Navajo, where the butterfly represents transformation and the unity of life. This symbolism resonates with Gemini’s themes of change and growth, inviting us to embrace evolution and renewal.

This lunation, Luna finds herself deeply guided by the celestial forces of love and connection. In close conjunction with asteroids Amor, Cupido, and Eunomia, and trining Isis, she is bathed in the energies of deep affection, desire, and harmony. She also sits in opposition to Eros and Hebe, and forms a square with Hathor. It is a time to release outdated emotional patterns and create space for new growth. These aspects call for emotional clarity, inviting healing and deeper connection to love’s transformative energies.

The Cancer full moon is tonight!

Magical ideas for the Cancer Full Moon

Tomorrow evening, on 1/17, the moon will be full at 27° Cancer. There's a lot going on astrologically: the Sun will be conjunct Pluto, the Moon will be opposed Pluto, Venus retrograde will be trine Uranus, Mercury retrograde will be conjunct Saturn and square Uranus, and Saturn is square Uranus. With two personal planet retrograde going on, this isn't the time to focus on things outside of ourselves but it is the divine right time to do things for ourselves and our homes.

The Cancer Full Moon is a great time to:

1. Magically clean your house! - I know that many of us don't like to clean but I promise that (for me at least) working magic into the cleaning process has helped me to enjoy/keep up with mundane housekeeping. I've written a full post about magical housekeeping here, so I won't be redundant BUT it's a watery full moon on Moonday - this is the perfect divine timing to clean up the stagnant winter energy. 2. Work with lunar energies - I mean, every full moon, amiright?!? But the sign of Cancer is ruled by the moon so this stands doubly true for this moon. 3. Do some bath magic - a watery moon is a great time to do a bath spell. You could do a cleansing bath OR make and charge your own salt scrub or bath salts for future bath magic glory. 4. Divination - again, bring it that lunar energy. Whatever your cup o' tea divination is really will do. In fact, do some tasseomancy (tea leaf reader) to double down on the watery energy. 5. Dreamwork - Since Cancer is ruled by the moon, this is a great time to re-up your dream spells or make a dream spell for the first time. This could be a spell to get rid of nightmares, a spell for better sleep in general, or maybe a spell for lucid dreaming.

6. House Magic - Cancer is the ruler of the 4th house which is very focused on House & Home. This is a great time to do any brand of house magic that you prefer - make a simmer pot, do a protection spell for your space, feed your altars, consecrate a new house candle - the sky is the limit here.

7. Work with Emotions - This is pretty open-ended purposefully. You could do a spell to heal your broken heart. Or a spell to make you more open or less open to the emotions of others (as you need in your own life). The caveat here would be that Venus is retrograde so it is very ill-advised to do a spell to affect the emotions of others - focus on yourself during this time. I hope this was helpful - comment and let me know what type of magic you are doing for the Cancer full moon!

(Disclaimer, I am not an astrologer just a silly girl that knows a ton of information on astrology🤓)

•When I had my first kiss, I had transit asteroid kiss (8267) conjuct my chart ruler & also my natal kiss conjuct transit moon & mercury.

•i feel like gemini placements are good at customer service jobs (not that they enjoy it) but just because it can be easy for you to switch the personality “on” when you need to communicate with others.

•when i had an event that happened to me that literally changed the course of my life through a mental (good) shift that led to me changing how i looked/wanted to look physically, i had pluto in the 1st house & also sun, vertex, & venus in the 8th house in my lunar return chart.

•as a someone with both capricorn moon & 4h pluto i have a hard time believing that these placements always indicate something bad. i’ve seen a lot of fear mongering regarding both, however for me it manifests as having a hardworking mother with a prominent job🤷🏾‍♀️

•i’ve had sooo many situationships with 7h moons & each one basically ended up bad LMAO but during they treated me perfectly??? #lovebombers. my 5h neptune can’t help but love u guys.😫

•context is SUPER important because i have mars in the 10th house BUT i also have saturn there too. because of that i currently don’t have the clearest image of a real career i want yet :/ this is why it’s def important to take single placement observations w a grain of salt!

•8h synastry where my sun and mercury was in his 8th house the intimacy…oh. my. god. like nothing i’ve ever experienced we never even fully had sex just making out but lord the eye contact ,the breathing…amazing and very intense .

•my name asteroid was in a partners 1st house in their lunar return chart conjuct sun & mercury when we met , had an instant connection & talked all day to night !!

•neptune, saturn, & north node in 7th house lunar return chart my dating life was HORRIBLE but from it i finally became aware of horrible patterns that i allowed in my dating life.

•transit moon conjuct natal 9h venus when i went on a tropical vacation to an island!!

Astro Observations Part 2

Disclaimer: I am not a professional astrologer. However, I have been studying astrology and making accurate observations and predictions

Pisces & Gemini risings tend to be very crafty or technically skilled. I think its their mercurial 4h and it being something passed down their family line.

9h placements can and often have a regular job, but they must be following their purpose too.

People with gemini & scorpio placements are good at analysing, researching and the occults. 3h & 8h.

5h synastry is childlike joy. Strong friendship vibes. This person speaks to your inner child.

Natal 5h saturn folks, if you do not have children yet and you haven't experienced your 1st Saturn Return yet...wait! Speaking from current experience with a toddler. Parenting feels soooo hard.

Cancer & Capricorn children really are ancestral children. They are meant to go further than others in their family.

Unevolved aries moon/sun people can fall inyo selfvictimization traps when not embodying their true power. I get it, itd exhausting being martian at times. But a balance has to be struck.

Mars in Taurus people are not meant for high intensity workout. Do yoga, somatic exercises and/or qigong.

****************************************************

Cancer placements love language is cooking. Taurus placements love language is eating lol nah Taurus people can be great cooks too.

Virgo moon people are impossible to please especially emotionally. They have a difficult time getting along with a spouse or in the dating world.

Scorpio risings with 8h placements should invest in talk therapy if they do not have good friends to talk to. They should still invest even if they do, because they will need professional guidance at times.

7h Mars or 7h Venus ruled folks attract a lot of envy. People will always try to control them or humble them. They need strong supporters in their corner.

12H placements also attract a lot of envy. Things they experience others may not believe. But they are lied on, spied on etc.

hey so i wanted to ask what could be an indication of blockage of like manifesting in like solar return? like being unmotivated?

Unmotivated indicators

in the transits, Solar & Lunar Return chart

Note: this post applies to the transit & natal overlay, solar return and lunar return chart. Results may vary from each placement, but it is a general indicator that can be used with proper context (your personal chart) & discernment. It's not necessarily the defining key that will cause you to lack motivation, but they are possible signs to look at or be aware of.

🕕 Pisces Stellium ( like the one we have transiting currently, being more tired or lazy. though the house it's in for your Lunar/solar return gives you more context into what's lacking motivation)

🕕 Mars in the 12th house (unmotivated, at peace, directionless)

🕕 Chiron in the 3rd or 6th house (delays, problems in your routine; especially in retrograde)

🕕 Neptune in the 3rd house (can indicate a lack of focus or just daydreaming away)

🕕 Stellium in the 12th house (not necessarily, but it can be somewhat of an added weight if you already felt like you were in a rut)

🕕 Sun in the 12th house ( but it also means choosing to lay low or remain hidden; pondering. If your natal sun is in a generally optimistic sign & degree, you tend to fare better even if it does feel "lonely")

🕕 Saturn in the 3rd, 5th, 6th & 12th (feeling restricted, boredom or a lack of purposeful movement)

🕕 Mercury in Pisces ( not being able to think straight or as productively as before; there's more stalling & indirect energy involved)

🕕 8th house Stellium (feeling drained or overly cautious/sensitive, you could be easier to trigger as a lot may be going on in your inner world)

🕕 Mars in retrograde

🕕 Lots of personal planets being in retrograde

🕕 Debilitated Mars ( Mars in Libra, Taurus, Cancer)

🕕 Mars/ Mercury square Jupiter/Neptune/Saturn

🕕 Uranus/Neptune in the 6th house (especially if you are usually a hard worker, suddenly you may feel tired or lazy)

🕕 Sun square Neptune ( a lot of doubting & second thoughts; this is literally the two of swords placement in my opinion)

🕕 Sun square Mars (frustrated at yourself/ your own intentions,having conflicting goals)

🕕 Sun square Saturn ( what you have to do isnt what you want to do)

Hope this helps!

₊˚⊹♡ Ruler of 5H in 2H is a sign of your partner paying for you on dates, or just providing you generally. They could pay on dates, pay for your shopping, literally being a sugar partner lol. Otherwise, this can also mean you'll enjoy spending money, and you could treat yourself a lot this month.

₊˚⊹♡ 7H Ruler in 12H is a bit tricky. It depends what's in the 7H and 12H. Im gonna take my example. I have this placement in July, and the ruler is Jupiter. I don't think it means bad because there aren't anything bad in the 12H as aspects and placements, I just think it means having spiritual awakening because of relationships, it can also means knowing a secret about your lover, or someone you love, or an enemy! Discovering a secret enemy. My case is very specific because it's connected to some houses, so I won't talk about it too much lol. One of my best friend had 7H ruler in 12H and it was also Jupiter, and she learned some good tea about the man she loves, and she was happy discovering that secret.

₊˚⊹♡ Saturn 10H could mean you may struggle with your reputation and career this month.

₊˚⊹♡ Having Chiron and Neptune 11H means you can get hurt because of something about you online. You could also discover something that will hurt you online. Someone could also post something about you that you won't like.

₊˚⊹♡ Neptune 7H is a sign of being crazy in love, you can be on cloud 9 lol. You could also be confused about your relationship. There might be some misunderstandings between you and your partner this month.

₊˚⊹♡ Saturn 6H could mean you could struggle with your mental health this month, and if it conjuncts 7H Ruler, it can be related to your relationships or enemies.

₊˚⊹♡ Uranus 9H is a big sign of traveling unexpectedly this month. If the Ruler of the 9H is Venus this could be traveling with a lover or someone you love very much.

₊˚⊹♡ 9H ruler in 11H means you can travel with friends, or you could travel to see a friend. You could also travel with people you know in a group. You could also travel with someone you like, and travel in a country you like the culture, or you like the community there.

₊˚⊹♡ Mercury 12H could means you could be quite shy this month, or speak a lot a foreign language.

₊˚⊹♡ 4H Ruler in 9H is a sign of moving out of your country, or traveling out of where you live.

₊˚⊹♡ 7H Ruler in 9H is a sign of traveling with your partner.

₊˚⊹♡ 4H Ruler in 7H means you can move in or live with your partner this month, you could often stay at home with them or just feel at home and safe with them.

₊˚⊹♡ Mars 7H can mean arguments can happen but some hot times too... hehe Actually if Mars 7H aspects well 8H Ruler, well you'll probably spend a lot of times being intimate this month with your partner!

₊˚⊹♡ If 9H Ruler is Mercury, it can mean you can learn a new language this month, or practice more, and even in the country itself!

₊˚⊹♡ 3H with Saturn conjunct Neptune means some miscommunications happening! Where the 3H Ruler is, is why or what about! If North Node is there too, you could need to work on it this month.

₊˚⊹♡ In my case, I have it in 3H and conjunct DSC too. It means the problem of communication can happen in the relationship and because both people don't share enough.

₊˚⊹♡ Jupiter conjunct Moon 6H is a big sign of having a better mental health this month!

₊˚⊹♡ I forgot! The 9H is not only about travel but it's also about In Laws! So having a stellium there, 7H or 5H ruler being in the 9H could be a big sign of meeting your IL.

₊˚⊹♡ So 11H Ruler in 9H could be a sign also of meeting In-Laws.

₊˚⊹♡ And if the 4H Ruler is in 9H, it can also means living at your IL's place for a while.

Thank you for reading!

[guided-by-the-skies]

Moon Into Libra 🍇

🍇 Waning crescent moon makes our connections with the subconscious more accessible

🍇 Weak square to venus in Saturn suggests problems may arise with debts, reaping of reward, and material favour of authority

🍇 a balanced mindset can allow you to weigh up emotional priorities

🍇 A good time for dealing with things that are troubling you regards the 9th house (moon is in 9th house UT)

🍇 ruler of libra is neither exhalted nor in detriment. make use of this netral energy to figure out those knotty 9th house problems

🍇 figures who may become important at this time: older male family members, your boss, companies and organisations, male spiritual guides and mentors, people in finance, debtors and creditors

[delicatevenus]

With her Moon at the exact degree of this New Moon, I felt that it was beautiful timing to honor Brittany Murphy as my muse for this lunation. Brittany’s roles often captured Scorpio’s raw and unfiltered emotional layers. She brought an unguarded honesty to her characters, portraying lives marked by struggle, resilience, and passion. Her ability to reveal the complexities of human emotion made her performances unforgettable, embodying Scorpio’s willingness to dive into the heart of life’s most intense experiences without hesitation. Brittany’s spirit continues to mirror the powerful and luminous energy that is shared by this New Moon.

· · ─────── ·𖥸· ─────── · ·

𖦆 Wisdom rests in the places I’ve been wounded

𖦆 I bloom through layers unseen

𖦆 I emerge, whole and powerful

𖦆 The pull of deep waters draws me closer to my core

𖦆 My heart opens wide to the storms I once avoided

full moon lunar eclipse at 24 virgo

eclipses are inherently volatile and with mercury stationing retrograde right around the same time this is not meant to be a comfortable period, so hang in there. care for your body and feelings above all else. others around you less well-advised and prepared will not be doing so, so try to be patient with them as we all navigate this highly unstable time. while you hopefully have *people* around you you can trust, do not be overly trusting of incoming facts/data/information. do not try to be perfect, about anything. some of it may be true and some of it may turn out perfect! but you won't know until the dust settles, so don't count on it yet.

What can we expect from 2024 dear!?? 😌

2024 has a lot going on; there are so many astrological transits happening that have a huge impact on all of us.

January 1, 2024: Mercury went direct after being in retrograde for several weeks. This means communication gets better, legal documents can be signed without issues, and anything related to speech is cleared up.

January 20 - September 1, 2024: Pluto enters Aquarius. This is going to be a wild ride. The last time Pluto was in Aquarius was around the late 1700's, and during that time, the world underwent MASSIVE change. Both the American and French Revolutions occurred, coups happened with governments, royalty was dethroned, battles and wars were fought, the first wave of feminism began, etc. There's so much more than this. You should see the list. I'll include it here--start around 1777 and go through 1798. Pluto represents death, rebirth, and transformation, while Aquarius represents humanity and technology. When you pair these two, you're looking at major transformation socially, politically, economically, and technologically. There's a brief retrograde into Capricorn for one last time during our lifetime, and then Pluto will return to Aquarius for another 20 years. It's interesting to note that the rise and fall of empires throughout history is around 250 years. The cycle for Pluto is 245 years. Coincidence? I think not.

February 16, 2024: A stellium in Aquarius. A stellium occurs when three or more planets are in the same house/sign in an astrological chart. This Aquarius stellium will feature Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Pluto. The last time this occurred was in February, 1962, and was commonly referred to as the "Age of Aquarius." This time period brought about major changes in the fields of technology, science, and aerospace. I'm afraid that during this time, though, there will be a strong focus on AI and its advancement. Pay attention to headlines regarding an upgrade in technology.

March 25, 2024: Lunar eclipse in Libra. Major historical events typically coincide with lunar eclipses, and since this one will be in Libra, I foresee society wishing for balance, harmony, peace, and justice. I believe this will be a time that humanity will call for us to take a deeper look at how we can end strife and get along with each other. Be ready for major calls for wars and upheaval to end (even though it's happening now, this will be on a much larger scale with this eclipse).

April 8, 2024: Solar eclipse in Aries. On the flip side of the lunar eclipse, we have the solar eclipse in Aries. This will be a time where we start anew and are ready to charge down a new path. Mars' energy represents war, destruction, violence, revenge, but also strength. This particular eclipse is warning us about war and destruction on a collective level because it'll be conjunct the North Node (the direction we're all going). I believe we're headed into a total collapse and rebirth when we add in the Pluto in Aquarius energy, but it's something that needs to happen for us to evolve as a civilization.

May 25, 2024: Jupiter in Gemini, which is actually in detriment. This means the energy is weaker in this sign for the planet. Expect changes in telecommunications (voice, data, and video) and social media, since Gemini is ruled by Mercury, the planet of communication.

June 2, 2024: Neptune is anaretic. Anaretic means that a planet has entered the 29th degree, which holds a sense of finality because this planet has transited all 30 degrees (starting at 0). It's ready to move on and cut ties. What does this mean for Neptune? Well, the planet of illusions will lift its veil and a lot of what we've held onto in our beliefs will die out. Some people will still try to hold on (sunk-cost fallacy) because they're stubborn, but the majority of people will release, mourn, and deal with the fallout that's going to be super messy. Imagine the feeling of being betrayed by someone you love. That's what Neptune lifting it's veil is going to feel like for most. Again, collectively, we NEED this energy for healing and spiritual growth.

July 21, 2024: Full Moon in Capricorn. Most of the time, nothing major happens on full moons, but this one is interesting because it falls on an anaretic degree, just like Neptune. Capricorn represents structure, discipline, rigidity, and order (its ruler is Saturn), so we're going to see some upheaval in regards to these issues. The old way of doing things will no longer serve the same purpose. This is the equivalent of saying, "Out with the old, in with the new."

August 5, 2024 – August 28, 2024: Mercury Retrograde in Virgo and Leo. With Mercury rx in Virgo, this might be a time where you lose or misplace documents, feel irritated, have constant miscommunication, or face scrutiny from the general public. Remember to write down important deadlines and keep everything organized so you don't lose anything. With Mercury rx in Leo, I'm fully expecting some celebrity scandals during this time. Otherwise, it'll be a time of thinking about trying something new or wanting to get out and do something fun.

September 17, 2024: Lunar Eclipse in Pisces. This will happen in the 25th degree (an Aries degree), so anyone with heavy Pisces placements will have creative breakthroughs during this time. We'll see a rise in great music, art, poetry and literature, as well as film and visual arts. This time period might feel very dreamy and whimsical on the art scene.

October 2, 2024: Solar Eclipse in Libra. We had the lunar eclipse in Libra in March, so now, the solar eclipse will bring justice and balance. Anyone with Libra placements in early degrees will feel the need to purge what's not working. Even though most Librans are peaceful, this will be a time of upheaval. Expect people to help the oppressed even more (seeking justice) in a world that needs to be more fair and balanced (Libra energy).

November 19, 2024: Pluto goes direct in Aquarius for twenty years, until March 8, 2043. Buckle up! It's going to be a bumpy-but-necessary ride.

November 25, 2024 – December 15, 2024: Mercury Retrograde in Sagittarius. We all know what happens during Mercury rx, but what happens when it's in Sagittarius? Sagittarius represents higher education and learning, all things foreign and travel-related, religion, and spirituality. Expect religious or spiritual leaders, as well as educational leaders at universities, to have private documents leaked, misinformation stemming from foreign countries and media, as well as travel issues (delays, being rerouted, lots of crowds, etc.). This will not be a good time to travel.

December 6, 2024 – February 24, 2025: Mars Retrograde in Cancer and Leo. This is going to be...interesting. Mars hates being in Cancer; it's in detriment. Why? Cancer represents empathy and compassion, while Mars represents a more masculine energy that strives towards war, violence, and destruction. Cancer wants to provide a resolution to all of the conflict occurring, while Mars isn't having it. Expect masculine energies, especially men, to be more irritated and aggressive during this time. This duo can bring about discussion regarding balancing masculine and feminine energy, which we all have. Because Cancer is represented by the Moon, or the "mother" in astrology, expect some discussions about fertility and reproduction, birth rates (especially the low birth rates of some countries), marriage (or lack thereof), and any social dynamics with males and females. These discussions will carry over into 2025.

2024 is going to be a year that'll go down in history, that's for sure. One silver lining in all of this is that Venus does NOT retrograde this year, so we might see or hear about fewer breakups, and we might see or hear about more people entering into relationships and staying together.
