The MOON IS IN GEMINI all day and there are no planetary aspects.⁣
⁣
Gemini rules the hands, arms, collarbones and the air in the lungs. It’s associated to cognition, synapses, language, communication and conversation. In regards to these associations, Gemini is also the sign that describes early childhood education and ongoing learning. It rules “close-in” relationships that help teach us about expectations and “normal” behavior - like the relationships we have with siblings, classmates, neighbors, colleagues and friends.⁣
⁣
Today, 100’s of millions of people around the world are striking. They’re walking out of work, school, and home to march for climate justice and demand alternatives to destructive, greed-based policies that continue to allow corporate interests to take precedence over the health and future of our planet. ⁣
⁣
This is a youth-led movement. This is a diverse movement. The people of the world are ready for change. There are some things we each can do that help that change. We can eat plant-based diets, we can stop flying in planes, we can switch to reusable rather than disposable. But, most of the change we need is structural. Most of the change we need will have to come from governments and corporations, through policy, through pressure. ⁣
⁣
Honor Gemini today by using your voice and hands. Speak up/speak out. Converse with others about these issues. Learn new things. Paint your face. Paint a poster. Lift your arms up. Listen to the kids.⁣

SATURN TURNS DIRECT at 13º Capricorn⁣
⁣
SATURN = slow processes of maturation, labor, obstacles to work through, mastery⁣
CAPRICORN = desire to achieve and build, where we must prove our endurance, meet responsibilities and gain respect⁣
RETROGRADE = apparent planetary motion that is reverse to its actual forward direction. A symbol of internalization, reflection, renewal, consideration, pause⁣
⁣
Saturn has been retrograde since April 30, when it turned retrograde at 20º Capricorn. Today it turns direct at 13º - a point it passed on January 22 (this began its “shadow phase”).⁣
⁣
Consider the past 5-9 months and the Capricorn-ruled areas of your chart. How have you been working to mature? What obstacles have you met and what challenges have you worked through that have helped you to refine your efforts? What have you learned about your own capacity and authority? How are you going to grow now?⁣
⁣
Saturn will now travel in forward motion for the rest of the year and into 2020. As it returns to the later degrees of Capricorn, we are supported to implement changes that have been in consideration over these past months. We succeed when our efforts are aligned with Capricorn’s most elevated energy: simplicity, thoughtfulness, steadfastness, accountability, integrity, determination and remembrance of traditional, earth-based wisdom.⁣
⁣
How have you experienced this retrograde? Have you been paused or stalled? Reconsidering or refining? Don’t know where Capricorn is in your chart? Tell me your rising sign in the comments and I’ll tell you what house Capricorn rules in your chart.⁣

Mercury and Venus both entered Libra on Saturday. Today Venus opposes Chiron in Aries and Mercury is in conjunct Uranus in Taurus.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
MERCURY = communication, exchange⁣⁣
VENUS - wealth, values⁣⁣
LIBRA = collaboration, aesthetics⁣⁣
CHIRON = healing processes⁣⁣
ARIES = ego, self-determination⁣⁣
URANUS = experiments, innovation⁣⁣
TAURUS = resources, money⁣⁣
⁣⁣
One of the ways I’m considering these aspects is through my ongoing attempts to not participate with capitalism. Lots of people have lots of positive things to say about capitalism and I do think there might be some way to engage with it that aren’t horrible. But here’s the thing, at the end of the day any system that’s based on exploitation is going to be destructive. Trying to figure out how to get deals, best competition and win prestige doesn’t foster anything that feels positive for our psychological, mental or physical health, not to mention the health of our planet.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I don’t know how to get out of it while still living in society. But I do think there are ways to subvert it. One of these ways is through direct barter. Bartering is still exchange, but direct barter means that the exchange doesn’t include “middle men” or resellers. It also means that new friendships and connections can form! It also means that I and those I barter with have access to goods and services we might not otherwise be able to afford. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
In my post today I’m featuring a recent barter with @tayappalachia - Taylor designs and sews beautiful, simple clothes from sustainable materials and infuses their crafts with astrological goodness. I might not have ever bought one of Taylor’s shirts, simply because I live in my same basic T’s, but we did a barter and now I have one and love it! Plus I have a new friend :) ⁣⁣

Who you are in your totality will never be truly known. ⁣
⁣
There will be moments of sensing what vastness you might be, but those moments are fleeting. And besides, your vastness is not meant to be articulated. ⁣
⁣
Your wholeness began with the becoming of you from the beginning of your becoming. Can you even imagine it? Just try. Try to include everything that has participated in your forming.⁣
⁣
You are absorbent and healing and terrifying and profoundly beautiful. Don’t forget.⁣
⁣
What you think you are now will change. It’s already changed since reading the last words. You are fluctuating, tidal, evaporations, condensations, showers, pools, waves, steam.⁣
⁣
At this moment in your evolution you hold the weight of the world’s grief. At this moment in your evolution you must try to remember what has been lost. At this moment in your evolution you are dreaming a new dream. At this moment in your evolution you’re considering how death will give way to birth. At this moment in your evolution it might be easy to confuse yourself for something else - someone solid and ambitious and temporary. At this moment in your evolution that confusion is suffering. At this moment in your evolution, even though you can never know how whole you are, you must try, with every ounce of your being, to include yourself.⁣
⁣
Try to imagine what love would feel like if it was textural. How would it rest on your skin? How would it float in your veins? How would it dispel through your lips?⁣
⁣
Happy full moon in Pisces loves. Remember, you’re like the ocean.⁣

#embodiedastrology #piscesfullmoon

Did you know there are three days of a full moon? Today the moon entered Pisces and tomorrow the Moon will align in perfect opposition with the Sun.

In honor of the Pisces full moon I recorded a new EA episode called Caring for Your Energy Body. In this episode I offer some easy, accessible practices for connecting with, caring for and clearing your energy body. Your energy body, or subtle body, is the home of your intuition. From this place we can access the astral plane and connect with our higher selves. Our energy bodies are sensitive and need to be cared for! Caring for our energy bodies first means taking time to attune with them. There are lots of different techniques and methods for personal energy work. The ones I introduce here are ones I come back to almost daily. They help me so much! Especially when I’m feeling more sensitive (like on days when the moon is in Pisces :) You can find the link from my bio in Lunar Attunements. I hope you enjoy!

EXPANSIVE ALIGNMENT⁣
Working with Jupiter in Capricorn and the astrology of 2020⁣
⁣
In astrology, Jupiter is associated with optimism, good-fortune, vision, life purpose, broadening perspectives/horizons, philosophy, self-improvement and positive consciousness. Capricorn is a sign that helps us to confront and move through obstacles, grow stronger through challenges we face and manifest our ambitions. Jupiter’s transit through Capricorn happens once every twelve years, but in 2020 this transit will combine with several other long-term influences making it an important and pivotal time for personal and collective healing, transformation and development.⁣
⁣
Regardless of your sun sign, each person’s natal chart includes Jupiter and Capricorn as active and important influences. Working with your own placements allows you to understand how this upcoming transit will affect you specifically and will give you clues, tools and timing for working most effectively with its challenges and opportunities.⁣
⁣
This unique retreat combines astrological method and how-to, movement, meditation, somatic practices, and creative, intuitive journeying. You will:⁣
- Learn practical skills for astrological chart analysis and gain a deep understanding of how Jupiter and Capricorn work in your natal chart.⁣
- Experience intuitive and accessible mind/body explorations that will help reveal, clarify and synthesize your personal vision and life purpose, creative offerings and soul-commitments.⁣
- Craft a personal manifestation design that works most effectively with the exciting and powerful astrology of 2020 and Jupiter’s transit through Capricorn.⁣
- Enjoy a healing and regenerative retreat on the beautiful Washington coast at a one-of-a-kind, female/queer-owned and operated retreat center where you can walk/cycle on the beach, use the Finnish Sauna, peruse the art gallery and pause in the wellness space!⁣
⁣
⁣
I hope you can join me! The registration deadline is September 27. Sliding scale pricing and scholarships are available. ⁣link in bio
