Full Moon at 11 degrees Capricorn
3 July 2023
5:38am mountain time
(it will feel FULL tonight, even though technically the Moon turns FULL in the dawn hours of Monday the 3rd, mountain time)
HOWLING INVITED!
I have been very busy doing exactly what I love to do and I hope this FULL MOON, the first of 4 SUPERMOONS in a row, finds you doing exactly what you love to do. A SUPERMOON occurs when the Moon is closest to the Earth in its elliptical orbit. Tides are stronger. As are emotions!
The axis of the Sun in Cancer opposing the Full Moon in Capricorn invites you to look at the balance between receptive flow and directive action, between release and push, between retreat to safety and bold reaching for your highest potential. Where the Full Moon falls in your chart will show you where this is playing out in your own howling!
Mercury conjoins the Sun in Cancer. You may notice how your thoughts are influenced by your feelings, and vice versa. Watch your own level of sensitivity and how much your thoughts are tempered, or not, by what you feel. Choose loving words of support for others and for yourself and watch sharp edges soften under Cancerian gentleness. The Capricorn moon promises the thrill of challenge when you go for what you really want. Much is unfolding on the global scene as Pluto completes its 16-year cycle through Capricorn, purging patriarchal patterns (not fun for anyone involved in this epic purging) preparing for Its entry into Aquarius in January 2024. It is quite clear how the energies played out when Pluto last completed its tun through Capricorn – the American and French revolutions of the late 1700’s and the birth of democracy, are playing out in many places in our world.
We are entering the next level of clearing out inequalities. You undoubtedly will see your own purging of inequalities where Pluto is working in your own chart. Deep excavation required.
Mars at 25 degrees Leo and Venus at 22 degrees Leo form a really tight conjunction in the fixed FIRE sign. Lots of drama is to be expected. Make yours a joyous drama of love, laughter, and creative expression. Let LOVE be the be-all and end-all of all your interactions.
I’m not big on 4th of July celebrations as I think fireworks are disastrous to wildlife and an assault on my sensitive hearing. I probably will lay very low in some underground lair and pray for a wild storm to come in. I do love the concept of LIBERATION from TYRANNY and I wish that for you – that you are FREE of any and all tyranny, including (and especially) the tyranny of any self-negating or unloving thoughts towards yourself!
As the Earth loves her flowers, may you love yourself with wild abandon!
