Hi, how are you? We have a nice concise episode today. I really wanna dive into this full moon that's happening tomorrow, as it will really be a theme for much of the week all of the moon phases last for approximately three and a half days. And we have this full moon happening tomorrow just after 9am Australian Eastern Daylight Savings Time. And will be in this full moon phase until Friday lunchtime, at least where I am. So translate that to wherever you are. And it's a full moon in, Cancer, this Mars retrograde is a part of the storyline as well. Let's dive into it because I think there's some good juice here. If you've watched or attended the astrology of 2025 talk that I did, I went into why these first two ish months of the year. aren't necessarily action time, and of course, you can take all of the action. I'm taking action. It's not like I'm not recording this podcast. I'm doing all of the things, but in terms of feeling any like strong propulsion, Well, a better way of saying that is, these first couple of months were really percolating and refining and Becoming a lot more precise in where we're wanting to apply our energies. I recommend watching that class I've got the link for it below all of this to say this full moon really speaks to what I've touched on in there Because this full moon the Sun is in very beautiful Capricorn We're in this last week of Capricorn and the moon is exactly opposite in Cancer. This is called the foundational axis, Capricorn to Cancer or Cancer to Capricorn, because it's looking very deeply at the foundations of our being. What is my domestic environment like, my sanctuary? And then beyond that, my inner world, my inner home, which is all of what cancer relates to. It's our emotional self. Cancer is ruled by the moon. it's certainly related to our clairsentience and our intuition in that, in that realm. And then Capricorn is my roles and responsibilities out in the world. It's the mountain that I want to climb. Build and ascend and claim as my own. It's the direction that I'm moving towards in this lifetime and Interestingly, but I guess unsurprisingly as an astrologer. There's always is very elegant placements in especially full moons that show us Or weave more of the tapestry, the narrative of the astrology that's taking place at the moment. And with this full moon, retrograding Mars, which has been such an interesting transit already, is here in Cancer. And it's conjunct, or lined up with, in the sky, with the moon. So, part of this full moon, the lunar energy, is infused with this retrograding, uh, retreating Mars will, determination, directness, our wants, our needs, our desires. And Often when we have a full moon in a water sign, we can really feel that bubbling up of emotions. It can almost feel like this release valve, or as the full moon approaches, like today, for example, and this evening, there's that sort of pressure cooker element, or there can be, as I've touched on numerous times, and I'll keep saying it, you may have particular full moons that really Touch you that you really feel and then other ones, which just completely pass you by and it's always really interesting to know What are the ones that you really feel because this retrograding Mars is here I spoke about this last week. There's this sense of, okay, well, I'm beginning to review what are my emotional wants, needs, and desires, and how am I nourishing my desires, and how am I nourishing myself as I maneuver myself towards my goals. My desires, my wants, my needs, these big directions and architectural blueprints that I'm putting my energy towards, you know, which is this Capricorn energy. So what I would say, there may really be for some of us. It could be some aggro, or there could be some of this Mars energy, this directness that wants to come out. Is there anywhere where there's rage or there's anger, or I'm just needing to express emotionally. And Because it's retrograding, you may just become really aware of what it is that you are needing to either say or establish for yourself or investigate more of within yourself. You know, what are my emotional wants, needs and desires. And even in a relational sense or within a work setting or whatever, we could also be looking at what am I willing to tolerate emotionally and. Your feelings are really going to be communicating to you if there's information that you're needing to pick up that you may have been overlooking. Capricorn is emotionally mature. It has a practical energy to it. Whereas when the full moon is in cancer or when the moon is in cancer, the unconscious qualities of the full moon sign are being brought to light by the conscious spotlight of Capricorn in this case. So this emotional maturity is looking at an energy that can be very emotionally immature or overly sensitive. I've spoken before, I have my mercury hearing cancer, I have my venous hearing cancer. I can really take things in a sensitive manner. Or, just overly personalized things is probably a better way of saying it. Things that aren't related to me. And so, as I have worked to mature this part, I've really given myself the space to look at, okay, am I personalizing something that's nothing to do with me? I think for those of you who have Planets in Cancer, it's really important to look at how you're nourishing your inner world and building that emotional safety within yourself because this is an archetype that walks into any room and it will read the emotional temperature and then based off of that, it will either stay in the crab shell, sideways walk out of the room, or it will come out of the shell and reveal itself. when I say sensitivity here, I mean in the sense of being overly sensitive, not sensitivity as like a magical force. I mean the type of sensitivity where it's like everything is Feeling like an attack when it's actually not. That's what I mean. In terms of work and this Capricorn element of what are my blueprints for this year, you know, as I'm mapping this terrain, what do I want it to look like? Now that lens gets to look at, okay, well, again, how am I nourishing my inner world? all of the earth signs, but especially Capricorn, especially Virgo. And the south node in Virgo is actually trining the sun in Capricorn right now, so it's a part of the story. It's an energy that can experience burnout if it's not engaged with and connected to how it's feeling. You know, it's, it can be so good at overriding tiredness or overriding the emotions that it just motors ahead and ahead and ahead. And it gets to a point where it's like, I am completely exhausted and now I need to take all this time out. If it's working beautifully, there's a direct communication between our inner world and our outer world. Right? it's like, here's what I'm wanting to do. Here's my schedule. How does that feel? Is there time for me to rest? Is there time for me to nourish myself? Et cetera, et cetera. Also, this full moon is giving us this chance to look at, okay, how do I feel about these blueprints? Does this feel like it's nourishing me? do I feel like the plans that I've made are nourishing my desires? Or, am I playing it small, for example, or is it so gargantuan that it seems kind of impossible and I'm already emotionally tapped out of it, which could be another expression too. So, if you're feeling fiery, or impulsively, or emotionally reactive, which can really be a cancerian thing. in an unconscious sense. I would just take note of that. I wouldn't necessarily be acting on it, I would be reflecting on it. I'm saying that because Mars, our action forward momentum energy is retrograding. You know, it's like anywhere where I'm feeling like I want to rip this person's head off, just notice that and see what it's actually speaking to on a deeper level. Like where am I? Where may my emotional wants, needs, and desires not being, being met? And where have I or have I not communicated that? anywhere where there's kind of boundary crossings, you'll really feel them emotionally, in your inner world, environment during this time. And that's just information and data for you, so that you can maneuver ahead. In a way where you're a lot more viscerally connected to what your wants, needs and desires are. It may also be a really good time to revisit the plans that you have started to make during Capricorn season. And read over them and notice how you are feeling about those things. what's the energetic or emotional intel that you're receiving while you read these things. The other thing that I wanted to mention with this axis is because again, we're from the standpoint of this emotionally mature, practically intelligent energy, looking at the unconscious expression of a cancer moon, we're able to see anywhere where we're like, okay, yeah, these are my goals. This is what I have to do today. And these are the reasons why it's really well thought out. But today, you know what? I just don't feel like it. So I'm not going to do these things or all of this week. I just don't feel like it. We're really able to see anywhere where we're acting in a way that is kind of sabotage y. And it's based purely on our feelings. And there's no correlation to the plan that I've made, the discipline or the commitments that I've said, this is what I'm going to do. Here's why. And now I have to action those things. And for any of us, any of you who work for yourself, you know, you may know how easy it is to really I don't know, live a, a work day based off of your feelings. I, I certainly am aware of that. even this morning it's like, I'm sleepy. I just want to keep watching this spy movie. But, you know, it's like I've made these commitments. I, and I know that if I don't action them, I will Spend the day just obsessively thinking about them and how I'm not doing them, it's, it really allows us to look at, okay, is there anywhere I'm being really emotionally immature or where I'm really getting in the way? of my own commitments and discipline, the discipline that I need to actualize these things based off of how I feel right now in this particular minute. And no, I'm not saying that you need to override your feelings all of the time. I've just spoken about how we really need to have this ear to the ground. Or into our own inner world whilst we're also looking outwards, making the plans, making the moves, having the commitment towards the things that we value and desire. Again, a big theme of this year is it's one of precision moves and it's these first couple of months of this year that is really allowing us to see What are the moves that I want to make? What's the most efficient way to do these things? What are the most efficient habits and, and schedule to have to be able to action these things and give myself a lot of this time Back to do the things I desire to rest, to read the book, to do what, whatever it is that floats your boat, you know? So if you are feeling a little off kilter during this time, something that I often recommend to my clients is to really construct a list, write out a list of all the things that you do that deeply nourish you and regenerate your energy, your moon sign. in your natal chart can give you a lot of information about this, not only about your own intuition and how you receive that, but also in terms of how do I best emotionally regenerate and nourish myself. If you want to know more about that, I have a really beautiful mini reading that I create it's called an intuition mini reading. It speaks so deeply into how yours works, If you've worked with me or you've been through my moon oracle course, you know that something that I speak a lot about is the more that you are tending to and nourishing your inner world, you are deeply nourishing that connection to your own intuition. So with or without having that knowledge, writing down a list of things, what do I do that really deeply nourishes me and then making that connection a real part of this week if you feel the need for it, but certainly like your weekly life, I hope it's a great one for you. I hope you get lots of interesting Intel. And if you want to really understand the incredibleness of this year of astrology, then I highly recommend that you watch the astrology of 2025 class.
