Sun in Aries, Spring/Autumn Equinox- Time to Rise Up from the Ashes, Glorious New Beginnings, Your Passions Are Calling...A Change Is A Comin

On March 20th, we have a very important day filled with many new beginnings. The Sun which rules our ego, life force and vitality, shifts from the watery sign of Pisces into the fiery sign of Aries. Not only that but we welcome the official astrological new year, with this entry into the first zodiac sign. This day also heralds the beginning of the powerful Spring Equinox for my folks in the Northern Hemisphere and the Autumn Equinox for my folks in the Southern Hemisphere.

The Sun in Aries, Spring/Autumn Equinox is here to bring passion, action and excitement back into our lives. This is the dawn of whole new beginnings where we can begin again renewed and ready to take on life. Aries' energy is anything but shy and timid. This next season wants us to wake from our previous slumber with a renewed sense of wonder and the fire in the belly to make our dreams come true.

After a very emotional and heavy Pisces season( we still do have Mercury/Jupiter/Neptune in Pisces) we are ready to move forward with a sense of purpose, action and clarity. No other sign is as ready to make it happen as a lit up Aries. These folks are made to take charge and their ingenious ability to remain curious, open minded and aware are some of their best traits. Another manifestation of Aries energy is entrepreneurship. If you have been thinking about starting a biz, this is a perfect time to get it off the ground. Even more so as we currently have all the planets in direct motion. In fact, I began Astromomma during Aries season( her 5th birthday is next week on 3/25).

The Sun in Aries, Spring/Autumn Equinox is ready to inspire you to new heights of self mastery and self love. Even in a world of confusion and chaos, there is a magical portal opening for unlimited adventure, self realization and progress. Our eternal Winter has transformed into a vivacious Spring. As mentioned above, the cosmos are fully supportive of any new venture, business, project or inspiration that you might have wanted to try. Aries energy is the Fool card in the tarot deck. The Fool card is about trust, faith and the belief that anyone at any time can begin again. It is never too late. If your heart calls you forth, honor its wisdom and nudge of brilliance.

For the Sun in Aries, Spring/Autumn Equinox, I have decided to write another poem dedicated to this new season. You all seem to like my poetry. I am so grateful for all of your love and support. Happy birthday to my daring and dashing Aries folks out there!!

Sun in Aries, Spring/Autumn Equinox Poem

May you remember the everlasting Spring within your soul
and let go of any remanence of the coldness of Winter + the world
You were born to be FREE
It is your birthright and the stand that you give to future generations
May you never doubt your ability to rise up again and again
Your tenacity + strength is seen and appreciated
May you be the light to others who cannot access their own
May this next season remind you that there is still purity and kind people in the world
Even in a world that at times has seemed to lost its humanity
May you be the one who lights the path forward towards peace for ALL
With no one left behind
May you enjoy the sweet smell of a new season's possibility for renewal
You are safe
You are AMAZING
You are doing a great job at this thing called life
You are a miracle incarnated
You are LOVE + LOVED

Oh friends…. The new moon is here and your lessons this round are acceptance and allowing. This round could be rocky and a bit turbulent so allowing yourself to let go and let it happen will be key!! ❤️❤️

New Moon in Scorpio- Rebirth of a Lifetime, Hidden Realms Exposed, Turning Your Trauma Into Transformative Power

On November 4th, we have the deep and penetrating New Moon at 12 degrees of Scorpio. Often in the days leading up to the new moon, we can feel quite drained and raw. With no moonlight to guide our sensitive souls, there is a feeling of being lost or just an emptiness present within our being. The New Moon heralds a time of fresh perspectives, new ideas and the slate being wiped clean. She brings renewal, hope and a fresh dawn of faith. Scorpio, the 8th zodiac sign deals with death/rebirth, intensity, shared resources, power and mystery.

The New Moon in Scorpio is here to invite you to dive deep within the hidden and often scary aspects of your psyche. No other sign can plunge to the depths of the unknown quite like a transformational seeking Scorpio. This new moon will ask that you bare your soul and be willing to embrace and hold space for your shadow self. The shadow self is where all of your vulnerabilities and most intimate aspects of your soul lie. There is no running or hiding at this time.

Secrets and mysteries will be revealed with this powerful new moon. Anyone who has prominent Scorpio placements is a magnet for bringing forth these hidden and often hard to read aspects of the psyche in others just by a simple gaze or gesture. These folks know how to face the darkness with reverence and respect and are here to teach others to not fear what is hidden or taboo. There is a grace of strength and tenacity when we can be vulnerable enough to expose what pains us, what keeps us up at night and the traumas we have endured. This is the gift of this new moon. To face your "shadow" with as much respect and kindness as your "light" is to hold a special kind of power and presence that many won't ever be able to obtain.

The New Moon in Scorpio will be making a 180 degree opposition to retrograde Uranus, the planet of surprises, innovation and independence who is currently in the sign of Ta**us. The New Moon in Scorpio opposing retrograde Uranus in Ta**us will bring up more shocks and wake up calls within our emotional states. Many of these secrets or just ah ha moments could be rather abrupt and unexpected. Since Ta**us and Scorpio deal with the 2nd and 8th house themes many folks could be rather emotional or on edge regarding their perceived values, security and finances vs. others resources, power and agendas. I expect to see lots of news connected to such matters and some of these headlines could be rather scandalous or just unbelievable in nature. Keeping your cool won't be easy with this aspect but the higher vibration of these two in aspect to one another will be an awareness of honoring one's sense of freedom and respecting one another's sacred boundaries.

The New Moon in Scorpio is here to bring the skeletons and traumas of the past to the surface. While this is a new moon and certainly new beginnings are a foot, something must die in order for something new to be reborn. This is the sacred cycle of life. During this moon phase someone or something will be removed from your life. Even if this something is just a mindset or perspective that has been draining your energy and keeping you stuck and complacent.

The lesson and blessing of this New Moon in Scorpio is to not fight or resist this "death" but rather to surrender and to let go. There is so much peace and tranquility within accepting things as they are even if that means them leaving our lives. This of course then leaves room for the rebirth and renewal. The New Moon in Scorpio is here to have you feel all the feels and to honor this process within. It takes an enormous amount of strength to face your shadow and to still love yourself unconditionally. The New Moon in Scorpio is here to have you honor the death/rebirth process, own your power like never before and to integrate your light and dark sides with compassion, understanding and a grateful heart.

It is nearly New moon 🌝 time.
With a clean slate and fresh intentions this is the time to cleanse, purge and get your self care routine in order!!

New Moon in Virgo- Cleansing + Purging the BS, A Pure Heart of Intelligence + Service, Nature's Whispers + the Love of Critters

On September 6th, we have the refreshing and grounded New Moon at 14 degrees of Virgo. In the few days leading up to any new moon, the energy is tense and palpable with uneasiness and anxiety. With no moon light to guide our sensitive souls, we can often feel quite lost and listless. Being a Full Moon baby by birth myself, I often notice this cycle of the moon makes me feel quite empty and emotionally drained.

As soon as the New Moon cycle approaches however, there is a feeling of the slate being wiped clean, a fresh cycle of possibility and a new dawn of faith restored. Virgo, the 6th sign of the zodiac, is known to be critical, health conscious, hard working, detail focused and service driven. As the summertime slowly comes to an end here in the Northern Hemisphere( and Spring approaches in the Southern Hemisphere) it is time to get back to work and school and to dust off the holiday vibes and embrace new routines and daily tasks.

The New Moon in Virgo is here to cleanse our spirit and to remind us of the beauty of efficiency and getting back to the basics. I love this time of year for many reasons. I often think of it as a great reset around our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health. Since Virgo rules the 6th house of health and wellbeing, we will be uber focused on getting back into holistic health routines, cleaning up our diet and strengthening our bodies. Getting back to the basics around our self care will be very highlighted at this time. Although Virgo energy can represent the critical workaholic, there is an earthy and simple vibe that wants to be reestablished by the cosmos. When you strip away all of the unnecessary fluff and distractions, all that is left is the natural wonder of our earth and the beauty of mother nature’s bounty of abundance.

The New Moon in Virgo wants to bring you back down to the wonderful and refreshing energy of simplicity, dedication and service to yourself and others. No other sign is as service oriented and helpful as a loving Virgo. These folks practically live for the helping hand they can offer folks and while this is super noble and beautiful, they have to watch out for the tendency to over give and wear themselves down to the bone. This is a great time to offer your assistance to any cause or charity of interest and to go the extra mile around your career and work. Just make sure that you are also setting healthy boundaries and leaving time for crucial self care and nurturing of the self. Filling up your own cup before pouring your goodness into another is always a good idea.

Wherever you have Virgo in your natal chart, is where you will be sure to begin new projects, ideas and plans connected to your health and wellbeing as well as devising a dedicated plan connected to hard work and efficiency. This is also a good time to wipe the slate clean + to literally clean out the closets, dust off the windows and scrub down the floors. Cleanliness is next to godliness, as my Virgo ascendant grandmother always says. A renewal of our sense of duty and attention to detail will also be helpful in this purging and cleansing process.

At the time of the New Moon in Virgo, we will have some more earthy vibes from the cosmos to add to the Earth sign party of order and purpose. Mars, the planet of aggression, purpose and action, currently in the sign of Virgo will be making a lovely 120 degree trine aspect to retrograde Pluto, the planet of power, transformation and intensity, who is currently in the sign of Capricorn. Mars in Virgo trine retrograde Pluto in Capricorn will add a surge of committed action and transformation around our health, work and dedication to our tangible existence. Since both planets can be rather”full on” in nature we will have to watch for tempers and passionate displays of anger and hostility if this motivation and dedication to our goals goes too far. On the higher vibration, this is a great aspect to begin a new workout or career plan and to motivate ourselves to get back to business with gusto and determination.

The New Moon in Virgo is here to cleanse our spirit and to remind us of the noble act of being of service and hard work. There is nothing more sexy and attractive( in my opinion) than someone who is humble and dedicated to their path and mission. This New Moon wants to ground your spirit with a soothing hand of practicality mixed with a dash of intellectual wonder. It is time to get outside and to rejoice in the love and beauty of mother Gaia. The 6th house also rules pets( hence the critter reference in the title) and this is a great time to connect + spend time with animals + all wildlife. Sometimes when I feel overwhelmed or just over this human existence, I will take myself out to the park with my dog Milo and we spend time looking at the birds, squirrels, and other dogs walking by. Mother Nature + her creatures are always amazing and this New Moon wants to reconnect you to the wonder, awe and power that she offers.

The New Moon in Virgo is here to give you a leg up on being efficient and detail oriented, remind you of the closets to clean + the wellness routine that is calling your name and the love of simplicity + the simplicity of love.

Welcome to the Blue Full moon!

The common theme: expect the unexpected, roll with the punches anx get ready to level up (ready or not)!

❤️❤️❤️

Full Moon in Aquarius- The Wildest + Most Unpredictable Full Moon of the Year, Manifesting Your True Sovereignty, Expansion of Your Highest Ideals + Independence

On August 22nd, we have the very powerful second full moon within a 30 day period with the Full Moon at 29 degrees of Aquarius. When we have 2 full moons in a lunar cycle this is otherwise known as a Blue Moon. Blue Moons are powerful lunation's that suggest heightened emotions, magical occurrences and the ultimate fruition of our manifestation abilities. Our feelings will be on overdrive and very potent even with this detached air sign lunation.

Full Moons themselves always signal intense feelings, endings and completions. The air will be thick with extreme circumstances and events rising to the surface to be purged and released. Aquarius, the 11th zodiac sign, deals with unpredictability, genius, the individual, independence, friendship, dreams and the collective.

The Blue Full Moon in Aquarius is here to create unbelievable and out of this world change that could be quite dramatic and hard to avoid. Something unusual, mystical and quite unforeseen is what this Full Moon will bring into our lives. If you have felt stuck or just blah, this baby will shake things up indeed!

The Full Moon in Aquarius will demand we get out of our comfort zone and step towards our true path and destiny. No more shrinking to make others feel ok + validated. This is about validation of the self and the courage to follow one's own path. A level of solidarity and inventiveness is what La la full in the sign of the water bearer wants to bring into our lives. Change isn't easy for most folks. As a whole, most people will stay in the confines of their comfort levels until an outside event or circumstance wakes them up into action.

This Full Moon is about shaking up the status quo based on each person's individual needs but there is a larger purpose here that will affect our humanity as we know it. Aquarius is all about independence but the sign of the water bearer also represents the collective. Massive and unavoidable "aha moments" connected to what the truth is and transparency will impact society as a whole with this powerful lunation. The rebel vibes will be particularly strong at this time and the need to honor one's sovereignty and right to express one's individual path and journey are highlighted. Radical inventions and "out of the box" thinking on many levels will be experienced by many.

Aquarius is one sign that will do their own thing, for better or for worse. Try telling anyone with predominant Aquarius in their chart that they "have to" or they "must" do something and you are in for a shock on many levels( haha I know cause I fall into this category). Aquarius energy doesn't roll that way. If you happen to have any inner planets + points( Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars or ASC, IC, DC, MC) between 25 degrees of the fixed signs( Ta**us, Leo, Scorpio or Aquarius) or 0-4 degrees of the mutable signs ( Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius or Pisces) then this Full Moon in Aquarius will rock your world. Whatever planet or point in the natal chart that is activated will bring in major and unavoidable shake ups and wake up calls. Expecting the unexpected is the best way to deal with this aspect, especially if you fall into either one of those mentioned groups. Surrendering the old and creating a new stance are important factors to embrace when the winds of change rolls into our lives. Something must give and in order for the future to be transformed something must die. It is the natural order and cycle of the universe.

The blessing in disguise will be the Full Moon in Aquarius's conjunction to retrograde Jupiter, the planet of abundance, luck and wisdom who is also in the sign of Aquarius. The Full Moon conjunct retrograde Jupiter in Aquarius will expand our feelings and prosperity connected to following our true north and with honoring our individuality and unorthodox ways of looking at life. Many unbelievable and magical twists of fate are in store. There is wisdom involved within these groundbreaking discoveries both on an individual level and within the collective. Lucky breaks connected to our destiny and chosen path will be in store with Jupiter's blessing on this full moon. Many could finally see the fruits of their labor come in, especially if this chosen path involves working with humanity as whole or around science, spirituality or healing of any kind. Again, expect the unexpected. With big Jup in the picture this manifestation will be large and in charge and with Aquarius, it will be hard to predict and pin down.

The second Full Blue Moon in Aquarius is here to rock your world and to wake you up to your power and genius abilities. There is such magic and unpredictability with this lunation that it could feel initially rather off putting or too unbelievable to many folks. The key with this Full Moon will be around sticking up for your ideals and with honoring yourself and your fellow man/woman. Aquarius's highest state of being is the path of the humanitarian who wants to find the equilibrium and balance between the individual within the collective while honoring the collective within the individual. It is a tricky balance as we have seen from recent events and our current world's reality. What does it look like to create harmony and peace with the individual and with humanity as a whole? How can we honor our differences with one another while also working together? Is that even possible? These are some of the questions that may arise at this time.

The Blue Full Moon in Aquarius is here to wake us up to our true north + sovereignty, create massive changes that propel us into the next phase of our journey and create the possibility( even just for a moment) of a world that honors both the individual and the collective working together as ONE.

Happy New Moon & Lion's Gate my friends... be the open hearted manifesting beauties you were meant to be 😘😘

New Moon in Leo- Lion's Gate Portal, Your Heart Holds the Key... Tune In, Listen and Allow It to Guide You, A Return to Innocence + Joy

On August 8th, we have the bright and beautiful New Moon at 16 degrees of Leo. This also happens to be the very potent "Lion's Gate". This is an annual event where the Earth lines us with the Sirius star system to create a portal of magic, manifestation and enlightenment. This year's Lion's gate will be even more powerful and majestic due to the New Moon falling on the same day. New Moons always herald a clean slate, a new beginning, and a fresh perspective. Leo, the 5th zodiac sign, is known to be playful, a leader, warm, generous and someone who expresses their inner child with delight and exuberance.

The Leo New Moon and Lion's Gate is here to awaken and activate a heart opening that will be massive and awe inspiring. Out of all the zodiac signs, Leo represents the child as well as the leader. It is an interesting balance to hold such tender and innocent energy and at the same time such a regal and commanding presence. Since Leo rules the heart, this new moon will herald the dawn of a new era connected to our pleasures, our desires and our creativity. There will be a rush of fiery inspiration that will be activated and very telling during this period. Many could step into their true soul calling and feel a renewal of passion and purpose.

The Leo New Moon wants you to find your inner badass and to channel its power into play and productivity. This is a great new moon to go out and create an artistic and creative masterpiece and to express your truth with conviction and fortitude. Taking a risk will also be favored. No playing small when Leo is involved. The greatest gift you can give to yourself at this time will be to honor and express your truth with full on tenacity and total self expression. The greatest victory of life is not in our accomplishments but the journey towards our inner truth and authenticity. A magnetic and magical gate of prosperity and abundance is always available to us. This can be accessed first within and with surrender our external will soon match its vibration.

The New Moon in Leo and the Lion's Gate is here to offer a magical and rare opening of our heart chakra + the ability to be a manifestation queen/king. A raw and dynamic rush of energy and creation are before us. It is up to each to create their own "heaven on earth". This first begins with honoring our own courage and place in this world. To hear the calling of our heart and to hold space for our creativity takes courage and guts. Two very well known traits of Leo.

The New Moon in Leo is making a tense but transformative aspect to Uranus, the planet of surprises, shake ups and independence who is currently in the sign of Ta**us. The New Moon in Leo in a square to Uranus in Ta**us could lead to some unusual and brash forms of emotions that will be rather fixed and stubborn in nature. Although Uranus is spontaneous in nature, being that Leo and Ta**us are both fixed signs will have our emotions a little more “dug in” than normal. Expect some radical and perhaps off the wall feelings to arise with this new moon. The key will be around honoring them and allowing them to be there but without reacting to their zaniness. Easier said than done but this is advised. Many could come to discover repressed emotions that need to come up and out and although they could be rather unexpected there will be an important lesson connected to honoring one’s...
