The Sky Now - An Astrology Blog

The self-care summer that was initiated when Jupiter moved into Cancer on June 9 moves to the Earth realms of life now with today's Capricorn Full Moon. A shift toward creating greater Earth/Water balance in our lives is well supported by the transit of Mars in Virgo and the more extended presence of the South Node of the Moon (Karma). Full Moons reveal what was previously hidden and they are powerful portals of energy.  Certainly greater self-awareness in the emotional realm is available now with the sextile the Full Moon forms with the North Node in Pisces. Truth about complex relationship situations can be revealed now, though not always comfortably for each party. What we need in love and friendship can become clear. Fresh awareness around purpose in life can occur. Intuition is strong under a Full Moon, and I see this Capricorn Full Moon as an honest Moon, lacking any trickster qualities. Truth is revealed. Aligned direction becomes clear. Check your living energy balance now. Are you putting too much energy into external situations and conditions at the expense of your own well-being and needs? If so, adjust the balance. Are you hyper focused on you and your own little bubble and not considering the overall quality of experience for all members of the community around you? Again, if so, adjust the balance. As spiritual beings we should have a social conscience and contribute to the overall well-being of the community we live in. In order to live effectively in our own lives, in our various relationships, and in our communities we have to nurture and nourish ourselves in body, mind and spirit. We also have to look after our physical and material needs adequately. This Full Moon is about finding the right balance with each of those key realms in life. It is also about checking in with our greater direction in life, and whether it resonates with our true self. Finally it reminds us that we are worthy of good experiences in relationships and compels us to take action to ensure that is the case in the relationships in our lives, or if it is clear such healthy balance cannot be achieved relationships to move on from them.
