Today (Sunday December 3rd 2017) is the day of the December Full Moon! This Full Moon may be a tricky one to navigate as we may be feeling like we're lost in a fog. If you are able to go with the energy in the correct way however, it won't be so bad.
Full Moon's are always the culmination of a cycle. A time of harvest. At this Full Moon though, we may not be so sure where we are going next. This Full Moon we have the Moon in Gemini and the Sun in Sagittarius. We are working with the axis of the mind. We may very much be in our heads at this time. With the Sun (and 3 other planets) in Sagittarius we are wanting to know what direction we should be moving in now. We are seeking the truths of situations. We want to know where we stand.
Part of the frustration lies in that the Moon in Gemini is ruled by Mercury which started a retrograde ( look out for a post about that soon) the night before. This means that things aren't really moving forward very fast now and we can't seem to find answers. Another frustrating aspect is that Neptune is in an exact square to the Full Moon, basically acting like a fog machine. This means we are coming to a culmination point, but we are frustrated because our minds want information and we want to figure out the direction things are going in. We want the truth of situations in our outer world. Yet, Neptune and Mercury retrograde are throwing a wrench in things.
How do we work with this energy?
Mercury is retrograde in Sagittarius. This will help us if we turn inwards rather than pushing forward through the fog in our outer lives. The truth of things on the external may not be so apparent, but we must turn inwards and discover our inner truth. Come to terms with the truth of what you truly want in your heart. Retreat and reflect on this.
While the Moon is ruled by Mercury retrograde, the Sun in Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter in Scorpio. Jupiter has been making a trine to Neptune. This is a positive aspect that helps us use Neptune's energy in a good way. This is also a rare aspect that we should make the most of. Neptune can be confusing, but it also rules the spirit and the divine. Jupiter, which is in Scorpio right now expands everything it touches and wants deep soul level connection. There is this beautiful expansive energy of the spirit to get in touch with right now if we so choose. We live in a vast, awesome, universe and if tap into this energy that permeates all life, we'll be better off at this time. Have some faith and trust that things will go in the right direction for you. Let go of the reins a little bit.
~ Overall this is an intense Full Moon and yes this is a Super Moon ( I know there's a lot of hype out there about that) which basically means the Moon is closer to the Earth and the energy is amplified. The key to this one is how you navigate it. If you focus too much on your outer life, you could potentially feel very frustrated. The energy has been building up to this Full Moon, so perhaps that energy resonates with how you've been feeling the last few days. Basically this is a time to go within, connect with your spirit, your spirituality/spiritual practice. That is the saving grace that will get you out of your head and into your spirit. You are a spiritual being having a human experience, remember that. You have a compass within. Follow that, trust that, and and it will see you through the fog. ~
You are so good. Having studied astrology and the planetary energies for 40+ years, I am really impressed with your understanding and knowledge of astrology and the way you put it into words that people can use in a practical and beneficial way to grow and make their lives more meaningful. Namaste.
