Full Moon Lunar Eclipse: Heightened Awareness
Welcome to the full-Moon eclipse weekend! Full Moons are noted for their potency.
And the Lunar Eclipse occurring on Saturday heightens awareness. Think,
“powerful awareness,” and you have a recipe for a weekend of discovery
— inward and outward.
Celestial events have been churning up the emotional tides. Remember this formula: Feel, Deal, Heal.
Earlier this week, the Moon was working well with Mercury (Communication), but showing some stress with the Sun (Personality).
One thing this can mean is that while you feel you wish to talk about
what is in your gut, your mind might be telling you to hold back. What
to do? Take some time and consider carefully what your emotions are
telling you. Write what you learn in a journal. Then, and only then,
consider talking to the person your feelings concern — likely your
romantic partner, though possibly someone at work.
On Friday, as if the coming eclipse wasn’t enough, the Moon
was very busy show stress with six planets: Uranus (New Ideas),
Mercury (Communication), Saturn (Restrictions), Venus (Love), Mars
(Initiative), and Pluto (Transformation). Wow. A potent mix
of emotional soup. Don’t worry, this “percolating” is what’s necessary
at times in life to brew up something good. Advertising people have
long understood the emotions drive all key decisions. Oh… and,
Astrologers too. Remember that the full Moon gives you the power to
deal with whatever comes up. Let’s concentrate on just three powerful
ideas for Friday: New Ideas, Communication, Transformation. What new
things are you feeling you’d like to try? When you communicate those
to important people in your life — you’ll find it can renew your life.
On Saturday, in addition to the awareness raised by the
eclipse, the Moon (Emotion) also finds itself in conjunction with
Chiron — the healer. That’s a good sign. Celesial events
have been churning up the emotional tides. Remember this formula:
Feal, Deal, Heal. If you think about it, all of the important lessons,
and resulting growth, involve some pretty intense emotion. Go with the
eclipse awareness energy and learn from what you are feeling. You’re
ready to enter a new and better phase in your life.~
