Sunday, Nov 27th ~ Capricorn Moon connects with Pluto each month. During this lunar cycle, I feel this as powerful reflection before decision making. Let your inner wisdom shine through as you act, decide and reconstruct. Neptune and Jupiter offer the vision and expansive perspective from which to grow. This is a growth spurt, if you choose to participate. Follow your inspirations. Do something that feels constrcutive today. That can include constructive rest and recharging. Capricorn is a sign for the physical body. Move meditatively and combine movement and meditation. I timed this Yin & Restorative monthly class with the Capricorn Moon in mind. Invite the resources and the inspiration you need to heal, grow and feel well. From 3:11 pm to 5:07 pm the Moon is void of course, a transition time. Aquarius Moon follows with no planetary engagements tonight. Be in your process or gather in a group of some kind. Today's color is Silver for gentle awakening.

Monday ~ It's a day for the mind and the intellect with air sign energy in power. Aquarius Moon fueled by the Sun in Sagittarius, opening us to studies, exploring, experimenting and alchemy! Engage in something that feels transformative. Venus, Uranus and Mercury also activate the Aquarius Moon in different ways. One part of this is interpersonal and how we communicate. Express your ideal, vision and intention to someone else who may join you or provide support. Try to keep perspective if something unforeseen comes up, and know that original thinking and alternative options are the answer! Mars in Gemini is an activator this week, and today, Mars aligns with Saturn in Aquarius. The message is to act and move on ideas and not to let a problem sit unresolved or untended to. Mars is about to show where the friction is, as an opportunity to change things. Oppositions are about to be obvious and right in our view. If you think you know what this is about, for you, today there's a chance to get ahead of it. Wear Turquoise.

Tuesday ~ Aquarius Moon aligns with Saturn and Mars overnight, leading to Mercury and Mars in opposition at 3:30 pm ET. Those in technology and how we use and may change our use of technology are affected. Perhaps we'll see news of this or it may be more 'inside' and going on in the industry more than in our view. Radical opposition and radically different values and views are int he spotlight as Mercury opposes Mars. Travel matters may also be implicated or affected. This opposition can be very challenging, argumentative and driven by conflict. Opposites can also give us clarity and define on what side or ideal we align strongly with. Agreements may be hard to reach. Try not to let discussions get out of control. Put your cards on the table, and then let it be. This could take time to sort. The Moon enters Pisces at 7:15 pm, landing us in our feelings. Mercury and Saturn are in harmony in Sagittarius and Aquarius tonight at 11:15 pm and the most open minded, future oriented ideas are the ones most favored (tomorrow too). Today's color is Blue.

Wednesday ~ Pisces Moon squares the Sun and this is the 2nd quarter Moon. It's known as a time for progressions, and since it's in Pisces this may relate to how we feel and deal with emotional circumstances. Emotional can sometimes be perceived as something challenging or difficult, but emotions encompass everything from love to anger to joy and fear. They are part of our humanness (and I think animals and other beings and living things show emotions too). Today we may reconcile and decide how to combine our aspirations and goals with other priorities such as being sensitive to the ones we love and how this may impact them. We may increase our understanding of emotions and look forward to experiences we need in order to reach our 'next level'. And Uranus joins forces with the Moon to say this may happen in surprising ways and experientially, by doing and acting, traveling and studying for example. Sign up for that course or program! Blend your fire energy with your water energy, transforming emotions in tangible ways. What is your heart's desire now? Read into tomorrow for tonight's vibes. Wear Green.

Thursday ~ Venus and Mars oppose at 12:28 am ET, affecting the week from Wednesday on. These planets are in Sagittarius and Gemini, two signs that oppose and disagree strongly (though they also have similarities). Words and ideas are particularly implicated, so be mindful of what could trigger a big ordeal. Venus and Mars relate to one on one partnerships and/or male and female energies. Avoid blame and instead look for ways to honor each of your perspectives. Pisces Moon squares both of these planets and also Mercury so it's emotionally charged and communication, such as how you communicate, is especially important. Sensitivities are likely to be heightened as Neptune and the Moon meet. Take time to be alone and in process as Pluto aligns with the Moon saying this is much needed. There's MORE. What a day! 
Part 2 ~ Mercury and Neptune square. This is more Sagittarius/Pisces actitivity and it's an opportunity to think originally through mental and emotional challenges. Focus on what heals and on truth over passive dishonesty. Can we be sensitive without being dishonest? Jupiter meets the Moon for emotional growth and an open heart. Venus aligns with Saturn (Sagittarius and Aquarius) helping with constructive solutions in matters of the heart and relationship while also having good boundaries. A temporary or long term agreement, to abide by, could come from this. Void Moon 9:44 pm to 11:41 pm. Could this be a sigh of relief after a few days of 'alot'? Aries Moon moves in. Wear Pink.

Friday ~ Aries Moon in harmony with Sagittarius Sun, for optimism and positive action. If you've been feeling it all week, make it happen now. Take a brave step or set a goal and support it with the first action. Follow your sense of adventure and go somewhere or do something you enjoy. Today's color is Red.

Saturday ~ Neptune direct at 7:15 pm after so much retrograde time, in Pisces. Neptune has been retrograde since late June and spends about 40% of our lives retrograde. Perhaps you dove into mystical, magical topics or maybe you were forced to examine personal truths/denials. The retrograde can be a time when illusions are destroyed and realities come clear. Intuition plays a part in this. Notice if you've been denying something you deep down know to be true. If so, grasp that concept now before Neptune starts moving again and may lead you to forget and go back to an old pattern that keeps you stuck in denial. This may relate to how to go forward in life or to whether you can actually have a relationship with someone who is in addiction, unable to see clearly and/or unable to live their truth and be genuine. Meanwhile, Aries Moon rules the day to day things and aligns with planets that were active this week including Venus and Mars. These harmonious aspects may help us ge things moving in what seems like right directions, especially giving new life to relationships. Wear Orange. 

Want to try Aerial Yoga in a gentle, meditative way? I'm offering AERIAL ZEN on this day, Sat, Dec 3rd 12:00-1:30 pm, with a sound bath to close our session. www.leapingwatersyoga.com

New Moon in Sagittarius Astrology for November 20th-26th, 2023

December 28th join me in South Portland for Connecting to Crystals with Nico De Pamphelis!

Evening class begins at 6:00 pm. Nico's knowledge and personal experience with crystals offers all you need to begin your own practice and develop a deeper understanding and connection to crystals and to create a crystal grid. I enjoy talking to Nico about crystals so much that I invited them in to share with you too! Nico is an artist, spiritual painter, intuitive reader, and student at MECA.

You may bring crystals you already own. We will also have pocket crystals here for workshop exercises and for purchase if you connect with a special one.

Register for this 90 minute session at  www.leapingwatersyoga.com

Sunday ~Harmony in the atmosphere as Libra Moon forms trines to Mars and Saturn which may help with situations and relationships that have a heavy or important tone. Strong feelings may be integrated and worked with sensibly today. The Sun aligns with Jupiter, in the water signs, for a continuation of recent healing processes, growth and abundance. Scorpio, Pisces and Cancer may sense this most or most personally. Stay in your process without distraction or confusion. If either arises, notice what prompts that, or whom, and let that give you perspective and plan for the potential next time. Today's color is Lavender.

Amethyst could be a crystal to work with and draw energy from today.

Monday ~ Moving toward Wednesday's New Moon, there's a sense of finishing up, clearing clutter and opening a future path. Possibly ( we all experience this differently of course), some of the eclipse flurry is settling and a situation or your own energy feels more clear. Void Moon 6:14 am to 12:16 pm ET and then the Moon shifts to Scorpio. These few days contain vibrations from the solar eclipse one (long?) month ago, and that means the effects are felt, decisions prompted then may be made, and the new pattern takes shape. Mercury and Venus meet in Sagittarius at 5:55 pm (!) for cool, interesting connections with others, and for travels! Find pleasure and adventure through spontaneous meetings and on the road or in the air if you're heading somewhere. These two planets in Sagittarius encourage lightness of heart and a spring in your steps. Wear Orange.

Tuesday ~ The Sun moves to Sagittarius at 3:20 am ET. It's a sign of  movement and activitythat also rules advanced and experiential learning and travels. Scorpio Moon amplifies whatever is intense with a square to Saturn and opposition with Uranus. Effort is emotional and intellectual, and it may be difficult to compromise, yield or agree. Being fixed on one thing can be good or not so good. Decide where it's better to give in a little. Or hold fast to your ideals and take a step back rather than trying to control or manipulate, which will not work well under these influences. Today's color is Maroon.

Wednesday ~ Sagittarius New Moon is at 5:57 pm ET. First, the Scorpio Moon time includes 3 harmonious angles which leans toward things going easier and/or happening quickly. Some of this feels very internal and personal, related to how you feel and are processing change or relationships. The Moon aligns with Pluto in Capricorn, Jupiter in Pisces, and Neptune in Pisces. This can be highly creative, spiritual, emotional, and clarifying. Meditate, rest, dream, enter the healing process, and believe in your self. New Moon power in full effect tonight and may favor plans for travel, college or other learning and training programs, studies, and changes of all kinds. 

I've fallen in love with my crystals in the past year. One year ago I decided to acquire some new ones and use them in sessions and for myself more often. I choose orange calcite for this New Moon. It's cleansing and purifying and is said to bring waves of new energy, joy and also intelligence. This feels like the monarch butterfly of crystals, to me! In January I'll offer my own crystals workshop, and in December I'll participate with you in Nico DePamphelis's Connecting with Crystals here in South Portland where my studio is. Thanks for this brief interlude! I got crystal vibes while I was writing! I'm currently surrounded by pyrite, quartz, smoky quartz in a darker black, and apopholyte! 

Wednesday's New Moon color is White!

Thursday ~ Happy Thanksgiving! Sagittarius Moon favors our travels and interactions today. It looks like fun and enjoyment may be easier to find as the Moon meets Venus and Mercury. If and when it's a bit serious later on, New Moon decisions may be in the works. Saturn gives a sense of commitment to whatever is promised or begun now. Today's color is Purple.

Friday ~ Sagittarius Moon opposes Mars in Gemini. Sometimes I feel this is a very confrontational and potentially argumentative aspect. However, there's an opposite side to everything, and I also see this as a time to let go of things you've been too strictly and strongly holding onto, to let in new ideas, to challenge yourself to listen and to be thoughtful when you speak. Sometimes it is only through opposition that we can understand and see an alternate path. Engage in an idea or plan that challenges your old patterns. Try not to argue and instead to hear one another. This is good fuel for changing stagnant internal patterns and ways of thinking. Get it all out there in the open and see what positive can manifest from this clearing and cleansing. You might need to vent or to hear someone else's rant. Can it be heard and maybe be productive in the end? New Moon cycle is a chance to open to new ways. Neptune and Jupiter square the Moon, adding a yielding vibration to this and helping us dream new dreams. Void Moon 2:22 pm to 4:18 pm and a grounding Capricorn Moon influence arrives. If it's been a flurry this week, tonight the energy could be settling or pleasantly familiar. Today's color is Blue (for communication)

Saturday ~ Capricorn Moon forms a trine to Uranus for alternative and surprising solutions, problem solving, repairing, and working something in a new way. Be creative with things you could 'do in your sleep'. Add a new element. Experiment. Ground in hands on experiences. Wear Brown.

I have so much to share with you! 10 of us completed Level 1 Sound Practioner Training with Kimber Lucier and these new sound healers are popping up in my own classes and also adding sound to their current offerings. Congratulations Kristine, Mario, Patti, Jared, Sri, Amy, Tara, Heather, and Chelsea! 

On Sunday November 27th, Mario will play bowls and rainstick in my Yin & Restorative Yoga class. It's a special treat as he is volunteering his time and gifts and is regular class rate of $20 (normally adding a sound practice would add $15 to class). Take advantage of this opportunity and take class as gently as you like. Register at www.leapingwatersyoga.com 

Another Level 1 training is scheduled and sign up began this week for Feb 4th and 5th! All info is on the website. 

Hoping you are connecting with something inspiring this season. Let me know if I can help!

RSVP www.leapingwatersyoga.com

Eclipse season is over for now, but the ripple effects and vibrations continue, especially during the New and Full Moons of November & December

Sunday, November 13th ~ Water and Earth element influence the whole day, as Cancer Moon aligns with planets in water and earth signs, such as Taurus and Scorpio. Meanwhile Venus in Scorpio and Pluto in Capricorn conspire for deeper, stronger connection to truth and trust between lovers and partners. Be one with your intution and if your spidey senses are on alert, follow their lead. Today is nicely designed for creative flow and reorganizing on the home front. Some will receive unexpected calls or word that shakes things up a little or a lot and most likely comes from family or relates to family relationships. Water & Earth are the Yin elements. Be receptive and avoid tendencies to control. Wear Black. (Connect with black tourmaline, moonstone and obsidian for grounding & inner knowing)

Monday ~ Cancer Moon journey continues overnight with an opposition to Pluto and deep feelings and intuitions. Do not ignore messages from your body or your dreams. It's possible to bypass them and miss an opportunity to heal or to free yourself from something or to simply not believe in your own wisdom. Avoid this. Hear your inner voice and sensations and be guided. The Moon aligns with Venus and Jupiter in water signs Scorpio and Pisces. This is soothing, forgiving and auspicious for one on one relationships, romance and deeper commitment and growth together. From 5:41 am to 7:48 am, the Moon is void of course and then we welcome Leo Moon days until Wednesday night. Leo Moon has no aspects and the themes of the overnight prevail. This evening, Mercury aligns with Pluto and if you haven't tuned in to your inner voice yet, it'll be strong enough to hear and heed now. The Sun aligns with Neptune in yet another strong water element aspect. Let this strengthen creative life force and flow, faith in yourself and the outcomes, and ability to manifest from imagination and dreams. There's a lot of inner process instigated by this week's aspects so far, and this can be so helpful as the effects of the two eclipses continue to unfold and require action to synchronize with this new energy and vibration. Can you feel it? Wear Purple.

Tuesday ~ Venus and Jupiter form a trine, a beneficial angle that favors all Scorpio and Pisces qualities such as passion, compassion, depth, and abundance. Act on something that really needs a positive emotional outcome, realignment or personal reconnection with. Leo Moon squares Uranus and opposes Saturn and these are challenging and sobering angles, worthy of earnest effort and willingness to shift. If you receive difficult news or an unwelcome change is in progress, find your inner yield while still being true to yourself. Situations can not stay the same forever, and this can feel like a pro or a con. Leo Moon evokes strength to deal with whatever comes and to be resilient and rise up again. Meditate on the Strength card in your tarot deck or find an image of it. How does this feel and how does it seem to relate to you? That is the energy of today. Venus is about to enter Sagittarius at 1:09 am ET. Have one last Venus in Scorpio evening whether it's in solitary enjoyment of life's pleasures and your own creative drive, or whether it's in a passionate conversation or embrace. Wear Gold. 

Wednesday ~ Venus enters Sagittarius. If you're newly single or seeking new friends, partner or a new learning environment and travels, and if you've been feeling stagnant or stuck emotionally, this may suit you well! Leo Moon until 8:04 pm ET. The energies may feel more playful, upbeat, or somewhat activated and strong as well. Have a physical outlet for mental or emotional energy that needs expression as the Moon aligns with Mars retrograde in Gemini. Get past a limiting idea or vision of yourself. Moon squares the Sun and Mercury which can make us indecisive or at a crossroads where questions comes up. That's ok, be with that and let some of it unravel without extra force. Dig in your heels as needed, if you feel that much conviction and dedication to something. Mercury and Jupiter align for agreements, yield, inner peace and also for broadening knowledge and educational pursuits. Apply for something or confirm your acceptance.  Virgo Moon 8:04 pm on, with a 10:14 pm square to Venus that feels like a practical conversation between lovers or good friends. Time to sort something out, particularly to find the common ground. Wear Pink.

Thursday ~ Virgo Moon, and Mercury now follows Venus into Sagittarius, for a more free spirited, open minded, and expansive approach to love, to learning, and to the experiences of being alive. You're invited to come out of your shell or your compressed feelings and to breathe some fresh air and energy in during this next month or so. Virgo Moon also favors cleaning house and refreshing things. Ground in worthwhile tasks. A simple day is called for, if that can be. Wear Green.

Friday ~ The outer planets have their say today as Pluto aligns with both Moon and Sun. Pluto relates to the depths and to Scorpio, and during this long stay in Capricorn, Pluto (at least to me) evokes qualities of the root chakra including our ancestry and wounds we perhaps carried into this life or that run deep. Pluto also has the wisdom and intuition required for authentic living. Pluto speaks of intimacy and what's most real, the stripped down version, the vulnerable. Whatever runs most deep and true is in the forefront today. This may require personal time, privacy and space. Neptune and Uranus are also in some direct relationship to the Moon in Virgo today which may test out faith or ability to stay centered amidst change or acceleration of events. Remain connected to yourself and ground in your porcess. The Sun and Moon form a sextile at midnight. Indigo is today's color.

Saturday ~ Virgo Moon & Scorpio Sun are harmonious and favor organizing, sorting, and both emotional and physically productive process and actions. Take care of both body and mind/feelings and do not let one override the other. Remember you are a whole person, who may like the feeling of working out your body or being really productive and getting things done, yet who also needs to acknowledge the inner processes, the feelings and emotions, and the spiritual self. Be intentional today. Jupiter in Pisces is opposite the Moon, calling up sensitivity to yourself and to others, and an emotional growth spurt could be called for. Are you being too judgmental or hard on someone you love and want the best for? Maybe they're not ready for what you think is best. Maybe they will never be and will take a very alternate path from what  you envisioned. Draw upon your faith in the process. Void Moon overnight 3:47 am to 5:58 am ET, and we enter Saturday with Libra Moon and Mars in Gemini square to Neptune in Pisces. It could feel 'all over the place', ungrounded, or mentally challenging. Study and concntration may be difficult and could be best timed for when your energy is 'right.' It may be hard to push through and make yourself do something. Yet, with the Moon in harmony with Venus and Mercury in sagittarius, this could be a fun evening out and may even make intellectual work and study go easier. Tonight looks social, but do whatever you have the appropriate energy for. Wear Light Blue.

Sunday, November 20th at Leaping Waters, receive an energy healing at a more affordable $39 as Tara Rook offers MAGIC BODY, a small group healing session. I've attended and had a truly effective experience and so I invited Tara to share her gifts with my studio community.

Tara is a musician, vocalist, beat maker, thai body worker, meditation guide, and artist. 

She combines energy, sound, meditation and hands on heaing for these sessions and may include light touch with your permission. A session such as this could be double the cost, but we are striving to make energy healing accessible during these changing and sometimes confusing or complex times.

Sunday ~ Aries Moon aligns with Saturn in Aquarius and Mars retrograde in Gemini. The idea of air feeding fire and fire expanding into air prevails. This leads to activation, impulse to act and do something useful, and can lead to impulsive decisions or moves. Make sure you're serious about what you're doing or taking action on and that it's not a whim. As the Full Moon and eclipse approach, act on deadlines that do not have flexibility. Put your mind and energy to 'good use'. Void Moon starts at 5:30 pm. Rest more in the evening. Be gentle through this time change. It can sneak up on you and take the form of restlessness or even depression. Alter routines like eating and sleeping, just a little bit, maybe in 10 minute increments each day to ccatch up. And take very good care of the animals and children who are experiencing the change in human/adult routines. They may actually 'know better' than we do. Wear Yellow.

Monday ~ Taurus Moon from 12:15 am on (eastern time). This is the sign of Tuesday's eclipse and today you are truly in the aura of it. The Moon has no aspects today. Taurus Moon is for grounding, productivity, and also sensuality, commitment, and whatever is organic. Venus and Saturn square in the fixed signs Scorpio and Aquarius. Relationship matters take a serious tone and require effort. Give your energy to any relationship imbalance that needs sorting. Be aware of the intensity and rush of this Full Moon eclipse, on the way around sunrise tomorrow. Wear Gold.

Tuesday ~ This lunar eclipse is a potent one, with Uranus attending and Mercury across the zodiac in Scorpio. Saturn in Aquarius makes the triple play with a square to the Moon today. Finding the yield is one challenge. Relentless describes the energy of the eclipse in Taurus. It's a huge peak and dramatic shift. Therefore, events, conversations, news and announcements come with it. It's also Election Day and this is directly implicated and affected. There could be unexpected results, upsets, events and outcomes. Personally, find the balance between persevering with what's most important, while also finding some flexibility and ability to listen. Taurus is the sign of the throat and neck. Wear an amulet or special neck adornment today. Blue is the color for throat chakra and communication. Problems may not be easily or predictably resolved. Patience may be needed. The Sun and Mercury meet in Scorpio indicating the importance of loyalty and of acknowledging and expressing emotion so it doesn't become trapped and manifest physically. Can this be done kindly? The elcipse and full moon arrive at 6:02 am, however the aura of this Full Moon is so expansive it will be felt for days and even weeks. At 9:40 pm, Mercury opposes Uranus for wildly unusual or uncharacteristic announcements and self expression. Exactly what you didn't think would happen or what was unlikely, is set up now. Particularly, anything emotional, related to communication, related to the throat and neck, and that comes as a form of news either by letter, email, media, or a phone call. The lump or block in the throat is likely to dissolve if not explode. Wear White, bright white, and take good care.

Wednesday ~ Still the Full Moon energy radiates. Taurus Moon aligns with Pluto for inner wisdom, the innate knowledge and memory you carried into this world. Do not ignore your intuition. It may be extra strong and loud. Taurus Moon also aligns with Jupiter in Pisces for retrograde visiting, healing of old wounds, and emotional growth. It's a positive day to have self care and to receive either intuitive insights or body work. (see Magic Body for a November opportunity at an affordable cost of $39. This session helped me enormously in one short hour this summer, so I am hosting it, with Tara Rook as your healing guide). Void Moon 7:00 am to 8:37 am ET, and Gemini Moon takes over. This is also a sign related to words and communication. Journal your plans or feelings. Spend some time getting organized and feeling centered today, amidst any tumult or surprise of this week. Wear Blue.

Yoga Nidra is tonight 7:00 pm at Leaping Waters.

Thursday ~ Mercury and Saturn have a stubborn square and it relates back to the aspects on Tuesday, at eclipse time. This is energy that doesn't compromise or yield easily , yet demands some efforts now, any time this week really. Attempt agreements and look for the right terms. Gemini Moon aligns with Saturn in the evening which may be the breakthrough. Negotiate fairly and make sure you're truly invested in your part of the agreement, if you make one. Also, study and learn and a breakthrough may occur there too! Venus in Scorpio aligns with Neptune in Pisces for emotional and relationship healing and forgiveness. Forgive others, forgive yourself, in either order. Continue self healing, self care and emotional attunement. Use music and sound to soothe and repair. This is an enormously powerful time. Do not diminish your feelings, your memories and your ability to persevere and feel better. Do believe in the potency of sound, hands on healing, your crystals, and other modalities such as polarity therapy. This is a time to believe in and seek sources that lift the spirits, repair at the cellular level and support us emotionally. (This is why I offer what I offer, at my studio or in readings. We need this now, so much. Do you notice that EVERYONE seems to be going through one or more emotionally challenging processes? I have these conversations constantly and am feeling it myself! Email me if I can help connect you to any source! I have lots of wonderful people around me.)

Wear Turquoise today (and use your blue stones this week).

Friday ~ 11-11. Do you have a relationship with this numerology? Well, it's that day. Scorpio Sun squares Saturn in Aquarius. Be intentional and do not take decisions or emotional or business matters lightly. Make it meaningful and expect it to be long term. Gemini Moon meets Mars. Avoid arguments, conflicts that are unproductive or any wars of words, online or in person. Gemini Moon squares Jupiter in Pisces signaling searches for meaning and direction. Void Moon 5:28 pm to 7:22 pm ET when Cancer Moon takes over and being cozy and in the comfort zone is the priority. That can be out or at home, as long as it feels familiar and friendly. Today's color is Indigo.

Saturday ~ Cancer Moon with a mix of aspects and engagements with several planets this weekend. Though it's mixed, this is  mostly harmonious and may include surprise emotional responses or exchanges. Family and home oriented Cancer Moon says prioritize what's nearest and dearest and do the best you can to reassure, create comfort and keep the home fires warm. This applies to Sunday even more than Saturday. Saturday Mercury and Neptune join forces the way venus and Neptune did on Thursday, with a focus on communication and forgiveness as well as creativity. Wear Light Green for the heart.
