NEW MOON, MERCURY DIRECT & MARS-NEPTUNE
Friday’s New Moon was in the sign of Sagittarius, one of abundance, expansion and jumping right into something new with gusto. Additionally, Jupiter, the ruler of Sagittarius is also in its own sign making this a great time to start something new, make a wish and set some new intentions. The monthly New Moon is always a perfect time to initiate and ask yourself what you would like to manifest. This time we are blessed with Jupiter’s presence and if we are very focused on what we are wishing for, then chances are very good we can manifest it.
It continues to be a positive flow of aspects as there is the Mars Neptune conjunction in Pisces. This is part of the wish making process as well, because it opens our eyes to what our dreams are, what we would like to manifest, how we can magically make anything happen with a vision and some focus. Remember, the connection of these two planets doesn’t require all sorts of strenuous effort in co-creating your dream with the Universe, if you can see it, you can have it. Mars and Neptune only get together once every 2 years, so initiating something you desire at this time is powerful. Mars is the warrior planet of taking action and Neptune is about intuition, magic, creativity, spirituality and foresight. They can be a strange pair together as their energies are so different. So the best way to take action now is not to charge in and make a direct hit. It’s better to intuit your next right action and slowly move through the back door. Let the energetic flow guide you. It may feel like you are doing nothing, but actually in this case all you need to do is be clear on what you want.
Mercury has stationed direct at 27 Scorpio and we can say goodbye to the retrogrades for a while! The inner planets have been busy with retrogrades since June and we are finally taking all we’ve learned and using it to move forward. It really has been a backwards time and it’s been hard to come out of the whirlwind and feel like you actually are moving forward. As it stands now, we have Mercury moving through the end of Scorpio until December 12th when it moves back to Sagittarius. Meanwhile, Venus has also moved forward into Scorpio again after retrograding back into Libra last month. The planet of the goddess will remain in Scorpio until January 7th, 2019. With these two inner planets re-visiting the sign of the underworld, we are encouraged to connect with our deepest mysteries, walk through the darker corners of our consciousness and come out with some answers and keys to our own transformation. I feel like this is an easier journey than the last few months, mainly because we now have Jupiter in its own sign of Sagittarius, opening our minds, helping us to feel safe in our journey and supporting our desire to raise our consciousness.
Where do you feel some unanswered questions remain? What part of your life requires some further digging to get those answers? All of these aspects I am describing are interconnected. There is a journey we have been on this year that required us to review and go within to understand a very hidden part of ourselves. Now we can grasp the depth of this journey, what information we found there and where it has been leading us. These next few days are good to soothe the soul and make it easier to recognize how far we’ve come, before we continue on our path. Remember to dream big right now and focus on all you wish for so that you may manifest it!
