9th September 2018: New Moon in Virgo - A New Dawn
The Moon is new at 17 degrees of Virgo on 9th September 2018 at 6:03 pm UT. If you’ve felt confused in recent days (Neptune has been opposing the Sun so it’s quite likely!), this Moon sets out a clearer path ahead which starts right where we are, not in some distant place we think we should be by now! Delusions or self-deceptions are cast aside by this moon. We can see ourselves as we truly are and in doing so identify what’s needed to address challenges and capitalise on blessings.
After several months of what many have experienced as blockages and obstacles, this moon triggers progress. If frustrations have been rife, you’ve felt like you were chasing your tail and no matter what you did nothing seemed to ‘stick’, things should start looking up! With Mars & Saturn now moving forward again, and Pluto following suit by the end of September, the emphasis is shifting from inner change to outer effort and the coming weeks will bring opportunities to translate self-knowledge and fresh perspectives into pragmatic action and practical renewal.
By way of support, Saturn continues to square Chiron until the end of September, providing the courage to believe that change is possible even in the face of all evidence to the contrary! It may not be the precise change we want, or the perfect solution, but most situations can bear a few ‘tweaks’ here and there to introduce a fresh energy or new flavour to well established circumstances. Even rearranging the furniture or a thorough spring-clean can shift our state and renew our outlook. The abiding thrust of life is always towards change. Nothing in nature stays the same, and neither do we. Stagnant thoughts, feelings and circumstances are contrary to life’s natural flow and much can be done to get them moving again. Chiron in Aries spurs us on to do exactly that, reminding us that if we can change nothing else we can change our attitude, how we think and where we invest our energy. Saturn in Capricorn affirms this is the most potent change of all, for in changing ourselves we can change our entire life without apparently changing a thing. A new dawn may well rise on the same old place, but the dawn is no less new…
Against that backdrop, this new moon provides a stabilising force, grounding us in the restorative power of connecting consciously with our own life and taking responsibility for what we find there. This is not an act of self-blame or denial of the many forces which impact our world, but of power that says ‘wherever I am I can use this situation to wake up’. This may mean having the guts to make a big change or cultivating acceptance; offering an apology or pointing the finger to expose the truth; speaking our mind or holding our tongue. We usually know what we need to do, but whether we’ll do it is up for debate! Fear may hold us back, or circumstance. Conditioning or lack of collateral. This moon makes space to look with clarity upon our life to see where and how we need to shake ourselves awake. If we then lapse back into blaming everything else for the sorry state of affairs, that’s a choice too. We cannot help but take charge of our future, the issue is always how we do it and why…

#Astrology #EnergyReport #NewMoon #VirgoAn auspicious full moon in Pisces on 26th August 2018 sits at the apex of a Kite, overcoming rigid perspectives and entrenched views that divide. It affirms that behaviour is not the final arbiter of worth, and we can honour our shared humanity whilst challenging the cruelty that perpetuates suffering across the globe. Illuminating the restorative power of compassion and the courage of an open heart, this moon roots us deeply in the knowledge that all life is sacred, calling us to live with greater awareness as a result.
With Uranus currently retrograde in Taurus we’re reminded just how fragile our place in nature can be. Climate catastrophes, food instabilities, the consequent conflict and strife: all are becoming ever-present features of the modern age. This full moon reminds us that a planet under siege to egoic desire won’t stop fighting back until those desires have been curtailed. We are each and every one of us beholden to play our part. For only by accepting we are part of nature, not its keeper, can we hope to thrive in an otherwise uncertain future.

#Astrology #EnergyReport #FullMoon #PiscesOn 23rd August 2018 the Sun begins its month-long journey through Virgo whilst at the apex of a Yod formed by Chiron and Mars. Emphasising the importance of tiny adjustments to self-expression, the challenge is to be forceful enough to make our mark but yielding enough to recognise when personal nuances are missing the mark. During this month the ego is a tool to be honed, sharpened and calibrated with great care. It exists to serve the greater good, not to be served. Self-seeking tendencies will meet with frustration until intention is purified and the ego realigned with life’s flow. Once this recalibration has taken place we can tweak the minutiae of daily life with impacts that ripple far beyond our immediate sphere.
A Grand Trine in Earth formed by the Sun, Uranus and Saturn between 23rd and 28th August offers a calming influence. During this time we may feel reluctant to step outside our comfort zone, preferring to stick with the familiar and enjoy some semblance of emotional and spiritual rest. If, however, there are tasks to be done, this Grand Trine provides endurance, stability and focus to apply ourselves and use any resources at our disposal effectively.
If a much-treasured goal occupies your attention at this time, formulate realistic plans which gradually move you out of your comfort zone whilst building stable foundations for each step of the journey. Avoid unnecessary risk but be prepared to nail your flag to the mast and commit to pursuing your goals when you know it’s time to do so. A concomitant square between Pluto and Venus which begins on the 23rd and ends on 30th August provides the courage to redefine our desires in the wake of an intense few weeks. We may, by now, be facing a very different direction to the one that held our gaze at the beginning of July. If so, Pluto reminds us that by exploring our deepest desires we meet our highest potential eventually. The winding path to their discernment may bear obstacles, false starts and unwelcome surprises, but it leads us into ever deeper union with the divine.
