New Moon is on the way!

June 26th Sunday ~ The beginning of this week favors reorganizing and making preparations. Gather information and in some cases documents under Gemini Moon today. The Moon met Venus overnight so it's also a day for celebrations, social brunch or beach time. The Moon and Jupiter align for what's new and just around the bend, ready to be announced or grow with the next lunar cycle. Be open to new ideas. Enthusiasm can be contagious. Wear Pink.

Monday ~ With the new lunar cycle starting Tuesday night, there's readiness for new action and decisions. Gemini Moon may center much of this in the mind and in planning, writing and researching. The Moon and Mercury meet in the overnight hours and this may put emphasis on what's in the mind or even lead us into anxiety. Remember to pause, breathe and exercise your body. Saturn and Mars, each of which can be challenging in their own way, are big influences on today. You may notice this is someone being authoritative or pushing and coaxing. Be very thoughtful about what you agree to, and try not to be manipulated or pushed into anything you don't actually want. Some agreements are likely to be signed or completed another way today. Much of this is about words and wording as well as writing and voice. Strong arguments, evidence and proof, and the emotions that go with those things, are prevalent today. Wear Black.

Tuesday ~New Moon in Cancer is at 10:52 pm ET. Tonight is an opportune time to begin or leave something behind intentionally. Make up a spell or ritual for that and do it from 10:30 pm on. Personally I'm rarely up that late, so if you aren't awake, set the intention before you sleep and revisit it in the morning. Use crystals, light, color, perhaps in the Cancer seasonal colors like white and blue or light green. Tarot cards and other oracles may also be part of your ritual. The Moon enters Cancer at 7:53 am ET. Jupiter squares both the Moon and Sun, and how big or extravagant or far away to go comes into question today. Educational and travel plans may be revisited during this New Moon. Plans may change in favor of or in response to family relationships and home base or home life. Venus and Jupiter are in harmony, showing gifts, blessings, synchronicity, and favoring prosperity and love relationships. Growth is in the air during this water sign New Moon. Cancer New Moon is sentimental and appreciative of nature and loved ones. Connect deeply with each other. Wear White.

Wednesday ~ In the active wake of last night's New Moon, some surprises and changes show up immediately and spontaneously. With Uranus as a catalyst, they may be different from the original plan or shift things into a new order. Re-read yesterday's forecast for more, since the emphasis is the same. Cancer Moon sextile Uranus in Taurus. Action and responses are called for. Wear Light Blue.

Thursday ~ Cancer Moon until 8:40 pm ET. This is a week of adjustment. Cancer Moon is sensitive to all changes, even the ones you can't see. Feel into what's happening and into how you actually feel. Are you receiving external and internal permission to have your own opinion and emotions? If you're suppressing something, make sure it has a healthy outlet through either talking to trusted friends or journaling to keep it private while still expression. Art and music are also outlets for stored up emotion. 3 planets align with the Moon...Neptune for the arts and creativity, Mars in Aries bringing out the combative or strong initiation which may be unwelcome or necessary depending on the circumstance, and Pluto in opposition to the Moon which is monthly and leans toward inner reflection and allowing feelings and wisdom to rise from within. Try not to get in a battle with yourself. Let the tide roll in rather than swimming against it. Most of all, do not deny your own emotions. They are teachers and if they're ignored they'll reappear in various forms. It's ok to just sit with the feeling and not have to do something about it instantly. Void Moon 4:14 pm to 8:40 pm ET. Leo Moon moves in to set up for some lovely aspects on Friday. Wear Purple.

Friday ~ Leo Moon connects with the energies of Venus and Jupiter, the two easy, fruitful, generous, gift giving, loving planets of the zodiac! Venus is in Gemini favoring words, voice, singing, writing, and socializing including dating. Jupiter is in Aries for action, improvisation and ingenuity especially regarding next steps and beginnings. Leo Moon is fixed, anchored, and confident, the energy of the Sun. One challenge comes through Mars and Pluto square later tonight. This aspect may involve power plays, abuse of power and tension between emotions and actions. Try to find balance between acting too fast and not acting at all. Be intentional. I hope this Leo Moon and the first two aspects give you a lovely and much needed day! Today's color is Gold.

Saturday ~ Mercury and Saturn form a trine and that could mean you forming an agreement. Saturn is retrograde and Mercury went through a retrograde so this may actually be new terms on an older contract or something overdue that couldn't be completed in the spring, perhaps back as far as April. It's a day for decisions. This happens in Gemini and Aquarius and may be relevant to these signs especially as well as Saturn return folks, around 30 and 60 years old. Leo Moon is opposite Saturn and square to Uranus. You may just want to have fun, yet other things are calling for your attention, possibly in immediate ways. The overall impression is that today is a time to make the best of things and do what you have to do. Contracts of any kind are in the spotlight. Today's color is Yellow for strong will and thinking things out. 

Happy New Moon!

Summer Solstice 2022 ~ June 19th-25th

Sunday ~ Venus in Taurus aligns with Neptune in Pisces, a romantic, sentimental and idealistic influence. This may feel relevant to Saturday more or as much as Sunday. The Moon in Pisces squares Mercury in Gemini, affecting communication, words and ways of thinking. There's duality in the air, and so some relationship or love matters are highlighted yet they may have two obvious sides. Knowing who or what to trust may seem confusing. Trust feelings over words. Today's color is Light Blue.

Monday ~ Pisces Moon with 6 aspects to planets and the Sun. Feelings, sensitivities, relationships and creativity are highlighted. Getting real and grounded may be difficult as this is a more romantic and emotional day. The Moon and Sun in mutable signs make for changeable and in some cases unreliable, plans. Mercury and Jupiter in harmony favor the bigger and bolder or brighter. New ideas and plans will be appealing. The Moon moves to Aries at 11:37 pm ET after just 26 minutes void of course. Orange is today's color.

Tuesday ~Today is the Solstice as the Sun shifts to Cancer at 5:14 am ET. The Moon is in fiery Aries, meeting Jupiter for newness and change, and in harmony with Mercury for brainstorming and coming up with ideas and resolutions. Some ideas will be fleeting, but take everything into consideration. Venus and Pluto are aligned for reflection especially about relationships and love and what that means. Today's color is Pink.

Wednesday ~ Aries Moon meets Mars for action and movement. Impulses may be strong and you may feel it's time to act boldly or assertively. The Moon and Saturn add a seriousness to whatever is happening. Venus shifts to Gemini, a changeable place for the planet of love, beauty and partnerships. Wear Red.

Thursday ~ Aries Moon squares Pluto at 4:02 am and then is void of course until 7:58 am ET. Inner conflicts arise. Taurus Moon aligns with the Sun newly in Cancer. This is softer, more feeling and sensitive and could mellow things out. Tune into what truly matters. Today's color is Green.

Friday ~ Taurus Moon meets Uranus, and this happens once each month. It can feel a bit ungrounding especially in emotional ways. It could also lead to inspiration and excitement. Lean into what anchors you without being overly dependent on anyone since Uranus can point out what's unreliable or unstable. A surprise or gift may be part of the day. Wear Turquoise.

Saturday ~ Persevere with a project, plan or priority under this Taurus Moon. The Moon aligns with Pluto, is in harmony with romantic Neptune and square to responsible Saturn. Try not to overlook something such as someone's feelings or something promised. From 3:02 pm to 7:13 pm there's a void of course time leading to Gemini Moon for the evening and weekend. It's social and may lead to dates or interesting social occasions. Wear Yellow.

Full Moon in Sagittarius June 12th-18th 2022

Sunday ~ Scorpio Moon gives way to introspection and may lead you to organize things and want a sense of order as the Moon squares Saturn. Creativity and order may not seem to be alike, but a sense of order is sometimes necessary before inspirations can arise. Declutter both your space and your mind. 3 more Moon/planet aspects support all of this and also give reason for clear communication. Speak from your third eye center, your intuition and wisdom. It's a great day to pull some tarot cards or otherwise engage in divination as Mercury and Pluto align. At 6:31 pm the Moon enters Sagittarius, our full moon sign this month. Wear Purple.

Join me for Floating Full Moon Yoga Nidra in the orange, mint and ocean blue hammocks at Leaping Waters in South Portland, near the bridge and Mill Creek Park. $30 or class pass, no experience required for this floating meditation at 5:30 pm as we approach Full Moon.

Monday ~ The Full Moon is exact early on Tuesday morning, in Sagittarius. This closes out eclipse season, one month after the lunar eclipse of May 15th. Reverb and ripples of eclipse news and shifts vibrate this week. The change needed may become more clear and involves movement and action now while the Moon visits Sagittarius and peaks. Today is open and expansive as the Moon and Jupiter magnify everything. The Moon and Mars instigate action and quick, brave or bold moves. Mercury moves into Gemini and redoing or rethinking is likely and related to things done or decided a few weeks ago. Red is today's color.

Tuesday ~ Full Moon of fire, the Sun and Moon are exactly opposite at 7:52 am ET. Saturn reminds of what is a good idea vs what may not be. Today's energy could be impulsive and exaggerated and includes desire for escape of the mundane, ordinary or stressful. From 10:58 am to 6:14 pm ET, the Moon is void of course. Fast, confusing or wildly exciting, this Full Moon instills the concept of 'anything can happen', broadens perspective and requires moves and adjustments. Fire energy relates to feelings of purpose, conviction, and confidence. During this Full Moon, feel what's just right and creates butterflies of enthusiasm (not dread). Perceive the difference between healthy and unhealthy anxiety since that can be telling you something important such as go this way and not that way. Today's color is White.

Wednesday ~ Capricorn Moon squares Jupiter and Mars in Aries. This feels like conflicts of interest and decisions about who or what holds the most power. Take reasonable and right actions, pursue a new interest, learn and be willing to grow. Avoid anyone who abuses authority and determine what level of authority and power is needed vs is unjust. Tonight look for changes in authority and necessary shifts which may seem to destabilize initially, but in the long haul can create more sense, logic, organization and also kindness. Wear Gold.

Thursday ~ The Sun and Saturn align at 3:53 am ET. This feels like wisdom, the wisdom to guide where you can and let go of control where you cannot effect positive change. Stand in your power, grounded and experienced. Avoid mixed messages, gossip and duplicity as the Sun and Neptune square. If you feel 'all over the place' after Full Moon, get some thoughts, ideas, brainstorms or feelings out on paper with art or writing to expel some of that energy. From 2:41 pm o 5:44 pm there's void of course Moon time, preparation for a change of sign. Aquarius Moon encourages vision and communication both, tonight, aligned with Mercury for brainstorming ideas and talking things out rationally. Wear Turquoise.

Friday ~ Aquarius Moon aligns with Jupiter for big ideas and initiating around the best ones. Personal growth is favored. How and where can you learn more and grow further into your purpose and your sense of self. With Aquarius Moon, remember it's through connection with others, such as in learning or working environments, community, groups, and friendships. Becoming feels like a good word for today. The path can sometimes be uncomfortable and require persistence and belief in your self. Try not to give up on you and your heart's desires. Anything can happen and life is filled with surprises and things that feel destined but couldn't have been predicted. Remember that today. Wear Blue

Saturday ~ Aquarius Moon to Pisces Moon with a conjunction between the Moon and Saturn retrograde. This relates to lessons and responsibilities to one another. Aquarius you are in lesson learning mode and may be taking on new responsibilities. Notice your feelings about that. The Moon and Saturn square Venus and partners may not agree readily. But the Sun and Moon are in agreement which often leads to inner balance and feelings of confidence. Brilliance is another word that comes to mind. Follow a brilliant plan, emotion or path. Void Moon 2:50 to 7:01 pm ET. Pisces Moon tonight for friendly, easygoing gatherings, music and enjoyment. Today's color is Green.

Mercury Direct Saturn Retrograde June 5th-11th, 2022

Sunday ~ Mercury retrograde is over, and this is often called the 'clean up time' as we revise and repair Mercury retrograde misses and messes. This begins in Taurus and that means looking for loyalty and long term decisions. Saturn retrograde happens now in Aquarius. Revise a vision statement or mission during Saturn retrograde. Saturn is across from the Leo Moon today. Things that are just not working may become obvious as does inner conflict about one's own needs and wants and how that fits in with the whole group or even society.  Leo Moon also squares Mercury newly direct and mixed thoughts and feelings about friendship and sibling relationships and interactions are likely. Mercury is still on pause. Be careful how you word things, in writing or in conversation. Misunderstandings could occur easily today. Leo Moon likes a good time, a party or occasion, so hopefully something fun is in the mix today.  Void Moon 7:12 pm on helps us let go and be in the moment. Wear Yellow.

Monday ~ Virgo Moon time begins at 2:22 am. There are no major lunar aspects today, and Virgo things prevail. Cleaning, gardening, creating and building, and self care. Organize and go over schedules. Work out the kinks in plans or  in the body. Take a down to earth approach. Brown is today's color.

Tuesday ~ Virgo Moon is activated by Venus and Uranus in Taurus. Shifts and changes require adjustment, and this looks like a flexible kind of day. Relationships and romance are favored. Plan B and C are a good idea as things may go differently than expected. The Moon and Sun square in the two signs ruled by Mercury, Virgo and Gemini. This can signal confusion yet also adaptability as both are mutable signs. Roll with changes. Wear Pink.

Wednesday ~ Virgo Moon opposes Neptune and aligns with Mercury and Pluto in earth signs. Quite a bit of earth energy roots us in everyday tasks and favors being in natural environments and organic flow with whatever today brings. Contrast between ideal and real possibilities arises and debate or ideas around that are likely. Bridge common sense and wild dreams without letting either be lost. Void Moon 8:09 am to 11:23 am ET and then Libra Moon with an opposition to Jupiter at 8:23 pm ET. Wear Light Blue.

Thursday ~ Libra Moon opposes Mars in the morning after opposing Jupiter last night. How to take action, grow, expand and learn are themes of these oppositions. Mars and Jupiter are encouraging active moves and leaps of faith while in the sign Aries. Anything can be magnified by these two, depending how they fall in your own chart. If you are an Aries, you're strongly influenced and if you're a Libra, your roles and relationships require active participation and forward thinking or moving approach. Cancer, career and outward life is calling for your attention and willingness to step up or stand out for all you have to offer. We may all find ourselves with opportunities to accept new and bigger roles. It's also a social, people oriented day as Libra Moon aligns with Gemini Sun. Both are extroverted and talkative. Get to know someone better, meet a new friend or go on a date. Today's color is Orange.

Friday ~ Libra Moon trine to Saturn retrograde and square to Pluto. The square happens every month and may bring introspection and sometimes inner conflict. Saturn retrograde brings up themes of structure and deconstructing. This may be especially relevant in relationships and group dynamics today. Roles may need to be rearranged and changed. Saturn asks us to mature and take the next steps in a process. Yet right now all of that is up for review. If you are always giving and putting energy out, this may be time and you may have clear reasons, to step back and engage in self care and reflection. If you are always self involved, you may have new reasons or pressure to take responsibility or leadership roles. Saturn is retrograde until October 23rd. This may signal an long and ongoing process of change and learning new life lessons. This is known to be a time to avoid new construction projects and expect delays in construction, in system upgrades or changes and in group process which may take extra time.

Back to the daily forecast, the Moon is void from 1:36 pm to 4:41 pm, and there's an extra introspective Mercury/Pluto trine this evening wile the Moon is in Scorpio. Really listen to intuition and the inner voice. Wear Indigo Blue today.

Saturday ~ Scorpio Moon. Venus meets Uranus in Taurus and the Moon opposes those planets. Drama, internal or full blown external, could be one result. Another is strong passion, strong attractions, and relationship questions including secrets, intimacy, loyalty and infidelity. Today looks a bit like a volcano ready to erupt. If there isn't drama (great!), you may also notice deep involvement in a project, subject, creative drive, and friends who need emotional support. Wear Black.
