The Lunar Lowdown – a few notes

While not a transcript of our current video by any means,
I’ve included the notes below if you’d prefer to read or for referencing the information later!

Actual Time of Celestial Event: Thursday January 28th, 2021 @ 12:16 pm MST
Sun’s position:          14 degrees Capricorn (The SeaGoat)
Moon’s position:        14 degrees Cancer (The Crab)
Bonus Planets:          Jupiter 14d Capricorn / Uranus 12d Mars 15d Aries

This Full Moon is formed of what is called a T-square comprised of Sun and Jupiter, Uranus and Mars, and Moon. [this is a configuration of tension, confrontation and negotiation] And in my meditation about this, I was struck with a sense that all the rapid change around us and demands placed upon us are landing another layer deeper within our hearts, within our inner receptive & reflective selves.

How that ends up feeling and expressing is, of course personal ~
Life upon this earth is a Full spectrum affair, bringing us all the colors of the rainbow, bringing us all manner of experiences through our time here.

Those characters in play: Sun Jupiter in Capricorn- big ego / great vision and optimism
Uranus and Mars in Aries- sudden surprises, impulsive behavior / great changes and breaking down of what isn’t needed (akin to the Tower card of Tarot)
Moon, in Cancer – our receptive selves, “inner reflective feminine side”

If we come to this moon burdened, heavy or pessimist, we may experience ‘enough is enough!’  and the confrontational energy of this Moon presses us terribly; we feel we have given so much already.

For you, the antidote is remembering that this life is a marathon not a sprint… and you, we, can receive sustenance from the visible light of the Sun who magnifies the gifts of Capricorn the SeaGoat now. This is a Being of stamina, who chips away at the mountain of work to be done, the mountain of feelings to digest, by putting one foot in front of the other, defining small achievable goals that keep one heading undoubtedly in the right direction… towards peace, balance and inner harmony.  Which is a step towards your goals, whatever they might be. So, you must, with the SeaGoat’s help, identify such small steps such as acts of self-care, taking time to do what you know supports your stamina, take a breather, before getting back to work, before taking on experiencing challenging or uncomfortable emotions, so understandable in times like these.

if you come to this moon more lightly, & optimistic, you may have a smoother time navigating the negotiations between large personalities and egos, sudden changes in the field, great loss, and the tender heart within..

And for all of us, I would remind you we have begun a new era as we are just over a month through the threshold of Jupiter and Saturn’s conjunction at the solstice marking the beginning a new “cultural age” – a period of 20 years when Jupiter and Saturn will come together once more…with of course some overlap, as one cycle ends and another begins…

Culture is defined as: : “the customary beliefs, social forms, and material traits of a racial, religious, or social group”

so Macro cosmically, micro cosmically, we can see we’re just at the beginning of new patterns, new initiatives, new ways of expression, some of which will endure and strengthen in the coming weeks …months… and years and some of which Will drop away in the natural way of growth.

In light of this, be mindful with yourself and others – meaning remain flexible & kind as you and all of us find our new footing within this Time the Great change and continued uncertainty.

Allow your imagination to soar and possibilities to be considered without grasping too hard upon the need to know. This moment represents, brings forth, a period Of challenge and testing – to shake off some of the less viable options, to road test some of what is being considered- so there maybe some losses or unexpected gains. Try to see this as an experiment and fall back into Capricorn’s persistence and Long range planning or maybe better said long-range confidence / hope in the future. While also tending your real emotions, not necessarily trying to change them but holding deep presence for yourself.

Aho.
