9/9 Mars will station retrograde until 11/13/20.

Why is this a big deal?

Well…Mars only ‘retrogrades’ once every two years or so and this time?

He happens to be in his natural domain of fiery Aries.  

Aries is courage and strength, power and will.

Mars is the planet that is responsible for our drive and our force, our motivation, our aggressiveness and will to fight for what we want.

He shows us where and how we assert ourselves, or how we must learn to in order to live our highest truth.

So while he is back-pedaling through the cosmos, he is also slowing down our drive whether we like it or not.

Here’s the thing…..we want to push ahead, we want to win.

Both Mars and Aries will fight the fight until they are the victor, until the very end.

Somehow though we are slowed down, perhaps even blocked from forward movement.

Collectively, this is a big deal and we have already begun to see issues of power being played out on the world stage since late July, went Mars went into his ‘pre retrograde’ mode.

Intensity is the name of the world game these next few months.

What is important to keep note of during this retrograde: sometimes no matter how hard we try, no matter how much we fight or strive to push forward, when there are blockages it’s best to rest on our laurels.

Mars is aggression and anger as well.

Our personal hot buttons can and will likely be more triggered than normal, as this is a highly karmic time.  Pay attention to your own anger under this energy, as it is here to teach you something.

Before you say ‘but, but, I’m not angry!  I love everyone and everything’!  Nonsense…we all have a Mars, we all have anger.

We all have issues surrounding power and control.  The way we assert ourselves, the way we do not, the way we allow others to make decisions for us, etc.

There is always a hot button and with Mars Retro?  You can bet it will get pushed at least once or twice!

Especially when looking to your personal chart, your personal Mars narrative- you can see which area of your own soul will be getting triggered the most.

*Video on how to find your transiting mars right here.  

Look to the house that Mars is transiting for the duration of this retrograde, as this is your Mars theme.  This is where you are called to go inward, to reflect and revise where need be.

Hey, let us not overlook the fact that our triggers are gifts!  Waiting to be unwrapped to show the shiny new item: enlightenment.

Remain reflective versus reactive, stay in each moment as it comes up.

Transformations are abound and they are deep.

Final word:  exercise caution while driving or using sharp instruments such as knives as it is much easier to have an accident under this energy.

9/2, 1:22 AM EST we have a poetic and highly intuitive Full Moon in the water sign of Pisces.

A Full Moon happens when the Sun is opposite the Moon.

This highlights the polarities (opposing forces) in our lives.

These polarities are of an emotional, physical and spiritual nature.  It can be one area or all three, and each Full Moon will feel different based on the sign and planetary aspects surrounding the Moon.

Awareness and emotion reach their peak and are heightened around Full Moons.  This is why we feel more edgy and anxious around these times, sometimes not even being able to sleep.

The Moon rules our subconscious, the raw emotions that lurk underneath the surface.

Everything comes to a head under this energy.  There is a tug of war between head and heart.

The Sun is in Virgo(Earth) while the Moon is in the opposite sign of Pisces (Water).

Virgo is more active and facts based while Pisces is more passive and receptive.

Both Virgo and Pisces are tapped in to higher forms of communication, Virgo through the mind Pisces through the spirit.

Intuitive flashes are stronger than normal under this Pisces Moon influence.

Pay attention to what is being communicated both verbally and non-verbally…..most of the information and impressions you receive now are likely to come from the intuition, not logic.

Dancing closely with Neptune (which happens to be Pisces ruling planet) this Moon is supporting our dreams, also our waking up spiritually to a different path , a higher calling.

The old ways are no longer serving us, it’s time to release the old to make way for the new.

Dare to be more bold,  dream in color is what this Pisces Moon offers us.

Join me for an online Full Moon Ceremony on 9/1, info and sign up here.

Tuesday 8/18 10:42 PM EST, we have our New Moon in fiery and courageous Leo.

A New Moon marks the beginning of the lunar cycle, the movement of the moon through its different phases.

New Moons are a time of new beginnings.  The beginning of a new cycle, a time to initiate plans and projects, get things moving, a fresh start.  

Abundance surrounds this energy.

New Moons are auspicious times filled with promise and opportunity.

The Sun aligns with the Moon in the sky when it’s a New Moon meaning that they are in the same sign –Leo.

The Sun (ego) is in harmony with the Moon (soul) during a New Moon.

Leo is heart-centered, passionate, creative and brave.

This sign asks us to define our desires, to recognize them and work towards them.

Leo wants us to take center stage, to shine our light.

We all are unique and can learn from each other.

Sitting nicely with Mercury (in a conjunction) communication is powerful at this time.  The mind and the heart are speaking to each other in a language that is understood.

Mars is in harmony with this planetary alignment as well, bringing in the fortitude and the action to ‘get the job done’, in whatever way that applies to/for you.

Overall, this New Moon energy is fabulous, emotionally stable and logical as we are right at the heels of Virgo season.

This is an excellent, supportive and productive time for any and all projects involving reading, writing, speaking, healing.  Any kind of creative work where you were lacking stamina could see a nice boost.

Peace & Love,

Hey All,

Here we are, in the middle of August.

‘As above so below’.

This past Thursday 8/13, we had a strong planetary aspect that took place (which we are still feeling).

Mars which is heat, action, fighting, movement- faced off with Pluto which is deep transformation, skeletons coming out of the closet, and change.

This is about power, control and surrender and will happen two more times before the end of 2020.

More significantly Uranus (the planet of innovation and change, the shape shifting, lightning bolt planet) is stationing retrograde today 8/15 until early 2021.

Before you read the rest of this post, before you go on to watch my video, I invite you to take a moment right here.

Look at this peaceful picture and imagine yourself on this boat, relaxing in quiet contemplation.

Take a few deep breaths, clear your mind and just think about the last month, the last six weeks.

How are you feeling about what is/has been going on for you personally?

Take another deep breath and ponder for a moment how you feel about what has been going on globally.

I invite you to keep this in mind as you listen to my words so that you truly feel them.

If this helps you somehow or brings clarity, hope, awareness?  Then my job is done for today.

No doom and gloom, no negativity….simply truth and enlightenment in a time of potential uncertainty and confusion.

May this provide you with some peace and direction, even if that direction takes you to stillness and inaction.

Much Love,

Lisa

 

 

 

Monday 8/3, the week starts off with a Full Moon in the sign of Aquarius.

This Full Moon occurs at 11:59 AM EST.

A Full Moon happens when the Sun is opposite the Moon.

This highlights the polarities (opposing forces) in our lives.

These polarities are of an emotional, physical and spiritual nature.  It can be one area or all three, and each Full Moon will feel different based on the sign and planetary aspects surrounding the Moon.

Awareness and emotion reach their peak and are heightened around Full Moons.  This is why we feel more edgy and anxious around these times, sometimes not even being able to sleep.

The Moon rules our subconscious, the raw emotions that lurk underneath the surface.

Everything comes to a head under this energy.  There is a tug of war between head and heart.

The Sun is in Leo (Fire) while the Moon is in the opposite sign of Aquarius (air).

Leo wants us to follow our hearts, recognize our personal truths and shine our light.

Aquarius is a free thinker, will not be boxed in at any costs.

Squaring Aquarius’s ruling planet Uranus, this Full Moon is bound to shake us up.  Rock and roll personally and collectively.

This is exactly what may be needed to put you directly on the path...your path.

Much more on this energy, video below.

Use this mantra for the Full Moon:

‘I effortlessly attract what is for me and I lovingly release what is not’.

Much Love ,

Lisa
