There are many facets to this lunation, it is Mercury ruled and a mutable beginning, things initiated now will mutate into something else entirely. It is important to correctly understand the core of Gemini to work with the next 4 weeks. Gemini is the sign associated with the mind, and its ruler Mercury is the only energy that mythologically can descend into the hades lands and rise up to heaven. Your mind can take you to hell or to heaven, and in both places you will adapt, because Mercury adapts. Making an effort to take a different mental path is the main thing this lunation presents, and it might be the best thing you can initiate for yourself right now.</p><div

trade, skills, learning and selling something. A lot can be gained with this lunation, but we need to make sure that what we are selling, offering or trading doesn&#8217;t actually own us instead. Mercury the ruler of this lunation is in Cancer, in its shadow phase ( will go retrograde on June 29th). The intention behind what and why we are selling, sharing and communicating something has to be solid. As much as I do like this New Moon, I know Mercury and the trickster is still a trickster, and substitution of meaning/values behind what we do is something to watch out for. Trading is a major Gemini thing, and with this lunation we need to get clear on what we are trading our skills, talents and ideas for, what is the acceptable exchange rate and what is absolutely not acceptable?</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://astrosipsa.substack.com/p/new-moon-at-24-of-gemini-at-1053pm?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://astrosipsa.substack.com/p/new-moon-at-24-of-gemini-at-1053pm?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><p>I think this New Moon is massively significant as it kicks off something that will be taking shape in the course of the next 7 years, and it has everything to do with Uranus in Gemini. We can talk infinitely about changing our mindset, re-wiring our brain and so on, but it is often a matter of right timing as well. Because of the dualistic nature of Gemini the outcome of whatever we begin now depends on our ability to hold the spectrum of changes that this beginning brings. The next four weeks will make us re-think our relationship with our immediate environment, with information we consume and share, with what enters our energetic bodies and what we give back. This is a very auspicious New Moon, just be careful with what you think you want, it might happen.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://astrosipsa.substack.com/subscribe?&amp;gift=true&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Give a gift subscription&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://astrosipsa.substack.com/subscribe?&amp;gift=true"><span>Give a gift subscription</span></a></p><p>The other thing we need to be mindful about is the tendency to get stuck in analysis paralysis about something we want to do, needing a perfect solution, action plan or choice can be a shadow side when we deal with the Gemini/Sagittarius axis. The mind can round you circles if you do not re-negotiate the terms of conduct with this energy from the get go. The next 7 years are overall going to be about taking reins from a mind centered decisions, through understanding that mind should never dictate your choices, its main duty is noticing and collecting data, that&#8217;s it.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://astrosipsa.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Mariana's Astrology Space is a reader-supported publication.

Strongly feeling like we all are standing on the edge of so many exciting changes, but in the meantime we have a very well marketed transit of the benefics in couple of days and my two cents are below. </p><p>On June 9th we have a conjunction between Venus and Jupiter in the sign of Cancer, and most people characterize it as the best transit of the year. I don&#8217;t disagree and it is important to be hopeful and optimistic in general as we have a meeting of benefics just once a year, but I also think that a lack of wholesome and realistic view can be a bit misleading. Because Jupiter expands what it touches, and with Venus, if there is a lack of resonance between our true values and the way we lead our lives, Jupiter will make it evident, maybe even painful. Jupiter doesn&#8217;t sting with delays or obstacles, it stings with truth.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://astrosipsa.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Mariana's Astrology Space is a reader-supported publication.

That doesn&#8217;t happen often, thus we know that the Cancer part of our charts needs elevation or evolution of sorts and it has everything to do with our natal Moon placement. Since last year&#8217;s conjunction the journey towards understanding one&#8217;s needs have been central for many. Especially those less explored and much closer to your heart needs.

Jupiter rules things we attach meaning to, our world view and beliefs, what we consider true and just, where we overestimate and overextend at times, what we are natural at and what comes easy, a talent that needs to be cultivated and offered to the world. Jupiter of course deals with traveling, higher learning, spiritual ideals, universal law and principles that guide you.</p><div class="captioned-button-wrap" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://astrosipsa.substack.com/p/venus-meets-jupiter-in-cancer-on?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;}" data-component-name="CaptionedButtonToDOM"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Thanks for reading Mariana's Astrology Space!

The thing we must understand about Jupiter is that its goal is the truth not the ease. Jupiter doesn&#8217;t want security that is centered around fear, self abandonment or most importantly a lie. Once we see through the widespread ideas about Jupiter, like luck, quick expansion and abundance and realize that there is nothing more Jupiterean than truth and alignment with God&#8217;s plan, we can work with this planet in a very different way. Luck and abundance are consequences of alignment and something devoid of meaning ultimately cannot lead to safety or fullfillment. Venus under the expansive influence of Jupiter is asked to transform in accordance to the true needs and values she holds, not cling to a familiar, hereditary ways of conduct.</p><p>The ruler of this conjunction, Moon is in Aries next to Neptune and on her way to Saturn. When we individually or collectively think of a home we think about a physical space, about a country, a state, so borders and separation come into this idea of home. But this transit speaks of a home that goes deeper than a place we come from, deeper than a person or group we might call home, it speaks of an idea of belonging to a larger home, one within the unmet needs that we carry. Our ability to imagine a family unit, a community, a mutually caring environment within which our individual essence is preserved is the ultimate goal of this conjunction. We have to ask ourselves what makes us feel truly fulfilled, happy and joyful. Understanding the state of aliveness and meaning that comes from within, recognizing and embracing the part of your quintessential nature that needs feeding the most, one not dependent on external reality is the lesson of Jupiter and Venus in Cancer.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://astrosipsa.substack.com/subscribe?&amp;gift=true&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Give a gift subscription&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://astrosipsa.substack.com/subscribe?&amp;gift=true"><span>Give a gift subscription</span></a></p><p></p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Full Moon in Sagittarius.

As we step into a summer of outer planets coming together in the most unparalleled configurations and take us, kicking and screaming, into radically new experiences, we have this Sagittarius Full Moon executing a grand closure for so many. This lunation is ruled by exalted Jupiter in Cancer, the expansion might happen closer to our skin, to our home and to what/who is familiar. Jupiter ruled Moon paints the next cycle with broad brushstrokes, it is eager and a touch impatient within the confines of the outdated themes and situations. Because the Moon is trining Saturn in Aries, the passage from one place to another shouldn&#8217;t be reckless and thoughtless, though the risks are nearly impossible to avoid right now, they are more about seeing what you already have at your disposal with a different set of eyes and betting on that, using what you have.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://astrosipsa.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Mariana's Astrology Space is a reader-supported publication.

The communication is between our deepest truths and our most unrecognized needs. The midpoint between the Moon and Jupiter is in Libra, it is all relational, it is about navigating a fragile balance between safety and the bigger vision we hold. The balance can be achieved through re-evaluating the quality and the purpose of one on one dynamics in our lives. It is deepening connection to people in your life with whom you share a belief system and maybe a history, or seeing how differently you view reality. The more shadowy manifestation of this relational energy, is over emphasis on nationalistic and tribal, expansionist narratives. Moon in Sagittarius and Jupiter in Cancer conversations can be very much about the glory that is lost and how to take it back.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G3n3!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65aaf0e4-21ad-4511-95a4-f95be041e61e_994x588.png" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G3n3!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65aaf0e4-21ad-4511-95a4-f95be041e61e_994x588.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G3n3!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65aaf0e4-21ad-4511-95a4-f95be041e61e_994x588.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G3n3!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65aaf0e4-21ad-4511-95a4-f95be041e61e_994x588.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G3n3!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65aaf0e4-21ad-4511-95a4-f95be041e61e_994x588.png 1456w" sizes="100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G3n3!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65aaf0e4-21ad-4511-95a4-f95be041e61e_994x588.png" width="994" height="588" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/65aaf0e4-21ad-4511-95a4-f95be041e61e_994x588.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:588,&quot;width&quot;:994,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:173831,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image/png&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false,&quot;topImage&quot;:true,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https://astrosipsa.substack.com/i/199898270?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65aaf0e4-21ad-4511-95a4-f95be041e61e_994x588.png&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G3n3!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65aaf0e4-21ad-4511-95a4-f95be041e61e_994x588.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G3n3!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65aaf0e4-21ad-4511-95a4-f95be041e61e_994x588.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G3n3!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65aaf0e4-21ad-4511-95a4-f95be041e61e_994x588.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!G3n3!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F65aaf0e4-21ad-4511-95a4-f95be041e61e_994x588.png 1456w" sizes="100vw" fetchpriority="high"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image"><svg role="img" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><g><title></title><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>The lunation also falls on the midpoint between Eclipses. You know how Eclipses tend to be a wild card, they take the reins of time, but the Eclipse midpoints have a different vibe, they are our window of opportunity to enact free will and make an effort within the proposed circumstances. A bit of bending of reality is on the table if you are resolute enough. The trine to Saturn speaks about getting clear about all the excuses you make in order to stay where you are, and making the first step even if the rest of the path is hard to see. One of the more helpful things that accompanies us through the whole lunar month ahead is that Venus is on her way to meet the ruler of the Full Moon, Jupiter in Cancer. This benefic conjunction will play a very powerful background role in whatever transitions we are navigating in June. There is a prominent energy of a fork in the road with this Full Moon, and a lot depends on our ability to make choices that are not returning us to the past experiences, but propel us into the uncharted territory.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://astrosipsa.substack.com/p/full-moon-in-sagittarius-may-31st?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://astrosipsa.substack.com/p/full-moon-in-sagittarius-may-31st?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><p>This Sagittarius Full Moon also sits on the axis of two very powerful stars. The Moon in Sag is with Antares and Sun in Gemini is with Aldebaran. This configuration speaks of the test of alignment with the divine plan. Sun with Aldebaran requires honesty and purity of intention, the honor and integrity within any initiation have to be prioritized. These stars can also speak of heightened anger and militant fever, because when honor is replaced by the pride of conquest, this lunation can really fire back. Sagittarius is the sign with a clear vector, the vector is dictated by inner knowing, the subjective truth, now betraying that vector has long playing consequences. Knowing one&#8217;s truth and refusing it, is going against the laws of the universe.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://astrosipsa.substack.com/subscribe?&amp;gift=true&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Give a gift subscription&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://astrosipsa.substack.com/subscribe?&amp;gift=true"><span>Give a gift subscription</span></a></p><p></p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[New Moon in Taurus.

conjunction with a fixed star Algol is a wheel of fortune kind of lunation, it can go up and go down depending on our ability to see the inevitability of change and step into it despite the layers of accumulated fear. This is the space of either moving ourselves out of the fixed, familiar, not fully animate life patterns or further calcifying within those patterns. Algol is considered to be a difficult star, it sheds a light on what has been hardened when it was meant to become gentler, softer, where true values were sacrificed for the preservation of illusionary reality. A great deal of hidden material is revealed when we can identify the moments when we choose, consciously or unconsciously, to become more rigid, more set in our ways and beliefs. What this lunation offers is an opportunity to soften the edges of the beliefs and attitudes that we carry around, to turn the wheel. What is not evolving, what is illusionary turns into stone, just like in the myth of Medusa Gorgona which is associated with Algol. </p><p>Taurus is a sign of Moon&#8217;s exaltation, it is here the form yearns for fullness, for plentitude of what is valuable and durable. But if this form is only filled with even more matter, more things, it loses the plot. This container, a place of abundance and plenty, has to be also a place for spirit to manifest. If that doesn&#8217;t happen the form with all its riches is nothing but an empty vessel. </p><p>This is Venus ruled lunation, and Venus is currently in Gemini. There is a need for an effort to re-invent, to liberate oneself from the narratives that feel fated or doomed, to adopt more lightness as we move forward. Taurus is a deeply creative sign, and most importantly it understands co-creation as it is closely associated with nature and cycles. There is a need to stretch your imagination and tap into what you desire beyond the material, beyond safety and survival. What would you like to co-create because it brings value that infuses matter with spirit. To do that, with this lunation we need to look at what we are afraid to lose if we allow creation to take over our lives, we need to look at the fears around survival and safety. </p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://astrosipsa.substack.com/p/new-moon-in-taurus-may-16th-2026?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://astrosipsa.substack.com/p/new-moon-in-taurus-may-16th-2026?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><p>This lunation sits closely to Mercury, and there is a mutual reception between Mercury and Venus. We need to align our thinking patterns, ideas and connections with our values. This is a passage, an opportunity to move something that has been immovable for a very long time through a mental shift about what holds significance in the new world that no one will build if we don&#8217;t. And the last Mars/Chiron conjunction in Aries that perfects during the New Moon, draws our attention to the wound of energy and capability. The courage is required to stop telling yourself a story about being not ready and being powerless. Change right now is not smooth sailing, it is a Count Monte Christo level of defiance of the narratives you were fed and rules of engagement you accepted.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://astrosipsa.substack.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Mariana's Astrology Space is a reader-supported publication.

The month promises to lead us to decisive clarity and breakthroughs, but only if we go into May prepared to do the hard thing, face the hard thing, the stickiest and long standing issue or maybe not even an issue, but something that we have convinced ourselves is one. This lunation is equipped with all the tools needed for us to pierce into the murkiest of waters and discover that our fears and control mechanisms grow stronger the more time we spend building up monsters that exist within those murky waters. By diving into the spaces avoided for long we see that the only thing we need to be wary of is building our adversaries, internal or external, into a much greater force than they are. Doing that is the only thing that can bring you/us defeat.</p><p><em><strong>May books are open, after which I am taking a pause from consulting in case you wanted to work with me</strong></em>. </p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=19352467&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Book Here&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=19352467"><span>Book Here</span></a></p><p>This is Mars ruled lunation, and the fight is in &#8230;</p>

These lessons have to do with our sense of self, our direction, with the history of self abandonment and with the consequences of habitual enmeshment with something/someone misaligned with our essence or our path. Chiron is the ultimate teacher, and it teaches by exposing the wound. As we approach final Aries lunation with Chiron, you need to be very honest with yourself about why stepping into your authentic path hurts so much, what do you believe will be forever lost if you do so, who could be lost, or more like what version of relating to the world could be lost. A lot of work is to be done in the Aries part of our charts in the years to come and to rebuild, to re-imagine we need to see clearly what was washed away, what w&#8230;</p>

Choices that are hard to make and have been avoided for long, now have to be made to signal the direction you want your life to take. In the following two weeks post this lunation, the Aries part of your chart is getting a remarkable amount of attention, and the Libra part of your chart will be forced to use its Venusian skills to

A particularly significant six month period is ahead of us that ties together a very long Pisces centered chapter in our lives. As we try to feel through, to intuit into the new chapter where so much depends on our individual will, we need to understand the scale of what has transpired in the Pisces part of our charts. With Saturn and Neptune having left Pisces and Mercury being the last planet to activate the North Node in Pisces through a conjunction, we have gathered a great deal of information about our Pisces house. Now it is imperative we let whatever we have gathered breathe, let it be, so the unspoken truths can come together into a belief system that can carry us through the initiation that follows. Piscean domain deals with surrender, with the need to be held by forces&#8230;</p>

This is the South Node Eclipse, thus it brings up matters of the past, realizations around where you are being drained and what drains you. This is a very sensitive lunation as it deals with an idea of health and sickness, with what constitutes healing and what is a grand distraction from real healing. This is a total Lunar Eclipse, it is more potent and it is about our inner world, about the fine fabric from which our souls are made of and how we have been stuck in the mental loops that do nothing for us, and how these loops make us actually sick. Loops of hyper fixation on details not mastery, wanting to control the outcome not discernment of what is truly important in this moment.</p><p><em>i am going to take one or two people who want to book a bundle readings with me. email me at marianabalkar@gmail.com for dates and details. also march books are open for your pleasure</em></p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=19352467&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;consultations&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=19352467"><span>consultations</span></a></p><p>I suggest you &#8230;</p>

It takes place in the mutable water domain of Pisces and acts as a bridge between our emotional, maybe unconscious world and our mental world. This is where our mind turns from a worldly noise inward. Mercury is in its fall sign in Pisces, where the planet of communication, details, traveling, trade, manual work, writing, speaking and learning acts not as usual, less habitual and less linear. Mercury is still responsible for all of those themes, but the means of communication are changing. It is subtle, through dreams, perceptions, visions, signs. The same goes for traveling and learning. Trying to break down any given process or current experience into details and analyze it purely through the mind won&#8217;t be the most &#8230;</p>

This is one of those energies that draws a line between past and future, and it is not a subtle one, where we still have a leeway into the old ways of living, old structures, attitudes and old ways of coming together. The reality is re-organizing itself in front of our eyes and at this point we have no choice but to do the same, whether we are ready or not, collectively and personally. This moment is made difficult by how new it all is, no one has been here, and no one will tell us how to navigate this transition seamlessly. So two things have to be made clear, first the concept of authority has to be discarded ruthlessly, and second you are also not an authority, you are a vessel that needs to learn how to get clear on what it carries and how to drop all the external junk you have never meant to carry around. We are critically past the point of trying to salvage the systems of the past, not just&#8230;</p>

Saturn/Neptune conjunction is the grand beginning of the 36 year period of creating new reality. This is one of the markers of the new epoch. Similar to Saturn/Pluto conjunction in Capricorn in 2020 in its potency and impact, but different in the approach. It is filled with hope and fear, with dissolution of the old and creation of the new. It is a work for decades. This transit requires a very delicate balance of realism and faith in the integrity of what is being created by all of us. What is created, what we are creating need to have a solid spiritual backbone, or the lower Neptunian influences like manipulation, deception and illusions will take reign.</p><div

The next two weeks are about sifting through a pile of involvements, social masks and desires to arrive at the naked truth of our spirit&#8217;s true yearning. Your relationship to your Sun will be under magnifying glass. This Full Moon closes a cycle of coming into awareness of how you have been playing into the systems, truths and identity games that have really nothing to do with who you are and what you want. This lunation reveals our motives and fears around love, it is less about self expression and more about the naked truth about the conditions we have attached to love. Be it love for a person, for a family, country or a creative project. Remove conditions and observe what remains, what happens to the heart?</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=19352467&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;book 1:1 astrology consultation&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=19352467"><span>book 1:1 astrology consultation</span></a></p><p>This is very honest and no place to hide kind of Full Moon.

This might be the most constructive, demanding and with that the most rewarding lunation of the year. This is not about choices, or waiting for clarity from the outside. This is the time to start writing your own script of the future and taking responsibility for this script, because right now the price of not doing that and coming up with excuses has a painfully high price. We do not want to go with the flow now, the water is rotten and murky. Good thing this lunation is so generous with a variety of tools, that if you dare to commit to your potential you&#8217;ll get to the places your spirit yearns for. The only way to personal and collective freedom now is taking responsibility for the container you want to create and creating it.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a

This lunation filled me with guilt of not doing enough ( stellium of transiting planets in Capricorn), and I had to stop myself and double down on refusing to function according to some man-made cycles. I keep reminding myself that we are not at the beginning of a year, and our bodies and our minds are having a very detrimental cognitive dissonance. I want you all to stop as well, and disregard the noise. We are in the midst of winter, and this lunation sheds a light on how we are going to come closer to the deep yearning that nests in the darkness of the winter days, in the slowness. This lunation reveals all that is out of true resonance, all that is pretense, it makes us see the unconscious pleas to be accepted for who we are not.</p><div
