EP 141: Full Moon in Capricorn
The Full Moon arrives on Wednesday at 2:38 pm ET, but you’ll be feeling the intensity all week. The moon in Capricorn wants to be pragmatic, practical, and stick to the plan, but the heavens are feeling tumultuous.
Firstly, the Full Moon is joined with Pluto which means some old trauma and drama may be unearthed under the full moonlight.
Secondly, the Sun (shining its light across the sky to that Full Moon) is joined by Mercury and he is squaring Chiron, the planet associated with our emotional wounds.
You might not be able to keep yourself from letting it rip when someone hurts your feelings. It’s Cancer season and with the Sun and Mercury in the sensitive sign of safety and security; a little dig or a flippant remark might make you feel like someone is insulting your core sense of self or your deepest held beliefs.
Full Moons always amp up the intensity. The ocean tides rise, as do our emotions. Give yourself space to feel your feelings, while you stay away from anyone or any topic that you know is a trigger for you.
And when someone inevitably crosses you (as they will this week), take a deep breath, and ask yourself what the next best step is for you to bring down the temperature. It’s hot enough out there already.
I know the world feels like it’s on fire right now, but you won’t put out the flames by reading one more op-ed or watching one more enraging video.
The best thing to do is rest, repair your nervous system, and choose mindfully where you will spend your energy next.
Highlights
7.13 Wednesday:
Mercury in Cancer squares Chiron in Aries. Emotions flare and will be hard to contain. Everyone will be “taking it personally.”
Venus in Gemini trine Saturn in Aquarius. A refreshingly stabilizing energy on this intense day, giving us hope for productive communication and negotiations.
Full Moon in Capricorn. Triggering the degree of the Saturn/Pluto conjunction that kicked off 2020. Along with Pluto, this will unearth some deep-seated pain, control issues, and power struggles, but that is how we begin to heal.
Mercury in Cancer sextile Uranus in Taurus. A spark of creativity in the mix.
7.14 Thursday:
Venus in Gemini square Neptune in Pisces. Romantic and dreamy or naive and gullible? Be suspicious of the intent of others, but also take advantage of the flowing vibes that make meditation, art-making, and music delightful.
7.16 Saturday:
Sun in Cancer conjunct Mercury in Cancer. This is often a clarifying transit, but on this day with so much Neptune activation you might be feeling some brain fog. On the other hand, it could make for a sharp tongue. Remember everyone is feeling super sensitive this week. Your words have power, especially today.
7.17 Sunday:
Sun + Mercury in Cancer trine Neptune in Pisces. You might experience memories floating to the surface of your consciousness.
Venus enters Cancer. And just like that we’ve got 3 planets in the emotion ocean of Cancer. Get out the tissues.
7.18 Monday:
Mercury in Cancer opposite Pluto in Capricorn. The deep intensity you’ve been feeling will be given a voice today. Look out for secrets to be spoken in the collective as well.
