Wednesday 1/13- 12:00 am est we experience our first New Moon of 2021 in the sign of Earthy Capricorn.

This New Moon has no shortage of intense energy, jolts of unexpected twists and turns as Uranus is quite present and active all of January.

Don’t panic, remember change is necessary.

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 –Capricorn.

Capricorn is a Cardinal/Earth sign meaning it initiates practical structures and solutions.

Currently, we are under some dense energy.

Just step outside and you can sense something in the air….something that feels different, yet fear and uncertainty are very paramount.

I have been saying this for some time now, but it bears repeating: tend to the inner world.

Go inward, take care of yourself and keep connection to source, to the divine.

Drink water, ground, meditate, pray.

This is the way to keep your vibration up, and this is what will carry us through darker and intense times.

This New Moon speaks to all of the above as it is sitting very tightly with Pluto the planet of profound, deep and cathartic change.

Pluto is the planet that resurrects, he deconstructs to reconstruct; metaphorically speaking  Pluto represents death, permanence.

What in your world needs to be put to rest, for good?  What habits, relationships, long standing belief systems, compulsions- need to die away?

Turn the probing eyes of this New Moon with Pluto, inward.

Soul dive, go deep and search your own heart and empower yourself.

Last week we had sign changes of three of the inner planets which we are feeling strongly (Mars, Mercury, Venus).

Around this New Moon we have a few other cosmic influences we may see at play on the grander scale.

Mars is facing off with Saturn in a square which is producing irritation, tension, frustration and limitations.  Move about with caution and pay attention…mindfulness goes a long way with these energies.  

Uranus ‘The Great Awakener”  is slowing down to a halt to station direct on 1/14 which means his energies are amplified.

Expects changes of the course, surprising information and revelations, plot twists and turns. 

Uranus is a wild card, after all!

Uranus will be facing off with both Mercury and Jupiter.  With Mercury this could potentially lead to unexpected news/communications coming in, forcing a change in direction.

Squaring Jupiter this time could produce nervous tension as we are amped up to move, to expand but again, unforeseen changes may hold us in place.

I repeat: tend to the inner as this will help keep you in your peace.

Remember at the end of the day, we all signed up to be here during these chaotic yet cathartic and ever-changing times.

Looking at this from a higher perspective, we are the shape shifters, we are rewriting history.

As this is a New Moon that promotes deep and profound change on all levels, the power of manifestation is strong.

Use this energy to manifest to your souls desire, for the greatest good.

Keep close to your center, to your loved ones and have faith.  We will be ok 🙏 .

12/29 10:28 pm est, we will experience our final Full Moon of the year.

Falling at 8 degrees of Cancer, this Moon calls us to go in to our shell and reflect, much like the signs symbol, the crab.

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 Capricorn (Earth) while the Moon is in the opposite sign of Cancer (Water).

Capricorn is our public life where is Cancer is our private life, Capricorn is external where Cancer energy is internal.

We are thinking a lot about what the definition of ‘home’ should be….and home is not only a place, it’s a feeling.

This Full Moon is most certainly providing us with all the feels!

Taking residency in the sensitive sign of the crab this Moon has us yearning for stability,  craving emotional and physical comfort and support.

Our higher awareness, our intuition is kicked up and in high gear.  Pay attention to all of these thoughts and ideas, the feelings and impressions that are present with this energy.

With a helpful aspect to the planet of awakening and change, Uranus, we can feel a jolt of inspiration to move forward or a shocking revelation could come to light. This will likely be for the better.

Moon Square Chiron means our wounds are highlighted, crying is not uncommon as well as insomnia so take care of yourself, take care of your heart.

It is ok to say no, to rest if that is what you are being guided to do.  Chiron present with this Full Moon wants us to feel, deal and ultimately heal.

Things still appear to be a bit foggy with Neptune’s influence present, so please stay mindful and remember: not all that glitters is gold.

On the flip side of the Neptunian daze,  it can be quite creative and poetic, romantic and ideal.  It is up to you to decide which way these energies will take you.

All in all, 2021 will be a year of authenticity.

Release what no longer serves your soul.

Know that you are good enough, wise enough, strong enough.

Do not let anyone or anything dull your shine.  The world needs your light.

I’m sure you have been hearing all about 12/21…it’s The Dawn Of A New Era!

Not only do we experience the Winter Solstice (which is powerful within itself), but we will experience a planetary alignment that has not been even remotely this close since 1623….’The Great Conjunction’.

In other words we experience the meet up of Saturn and Jupiter, the two largest planets in our Solar System.

Planets are bodies of energy so the energy surrounding this alignment is powerful, it’s spectacular and in my humble opinion, a true gift that we are blessed to be a part of in this lifetime.

It is said that The Three Kings, The Three Wise Men (who were astrologers) actually followed this star to Bethlehem (Jupiter/Saturn)….this is where ‘The Christmas Star’ was born/coined.

*If you go outside at night especially between the 16th-21st, you will see these two planets as they move closer and closer together… it is a sight to see even without a telescope.

Jupiter expands, Saturn contracts, Jupiter insists while Saturn resists but always for the greater good, to make sure we do it right.

This concept carries over not only collectively, but more importantly on the personal level.

Jupiter spends one year in each sign while Saturn spends two and a half.  As these are our social planets, they dictate the themes of our society by the sign they are occupying.

This also happens in your birth chart, your soul map.  Jupiter will spend one year in a specific area of your chart, Saturn will be right there with him but only longer.

*Check your transits to see where this will occur so you can see where you can experience the most growth (Jupiter) by discipline (Saturn).  I made a video on how to do that here,  just replace Mars with Saturn and Jupiter.

At 0 degrees of Aquarius, this conjunction is a fresh start, a clean slate where endless possibilities abound.

With these two planets moving into Aquarius the tone shifts into what is good for the group, the collective.

As we move into the age of Aquarius, people are much more open minded and ready for change

Aquarian themes that we can expect to be highlighted under this energy are freedom, group consciousness, humanitarian rights/efforts, the internet, innovation.  Aquarius also rules air travel, so we can definitely expect big changes within the travel industry.

These areas of change and expansion are geared towards our personal lives as well.

We are under some energy right now!

Timelines are merging, nerves are frazzled and energy is ramped up.

We feel the winds of change are upon us…well, that’s because they are!

Coming off the heels of an intense Full Moon/ Lunar Eclipse on 11/30, there has been no rest for the weary as we cruise on towards the next cosmic gateway…..the total Solar Eclipse/ New Moon in Sagittarius.

The time in between Eclipses is powerful, fated.

We want to pay close attention to these times as they do tell a story and give an indication to a theme or themes of the next part of our personal narrative.

Changes instigated under these times tend to be more permanent and bear the most fruit.  These changes can, but mostly do not occur immediately.

Fate and destiny are very real, but our own free-will can propel us forward, or hold us back.

Eclipses speak to fated points of change, destined points in time when circumstances can swing wildly like a pendulum.

Lunar energy is wild after all, lunacy.

What to do with this energy, if anything?  That’s personal to you and where you are at on your particular spiritual journey.

Those that have strong Sagittarius and/or Gemini energy will feel this Eclipse cycle the most, more so if you have any planets around 23 degrees of Sagittarius.

The mutable signs are impacted strongly as well (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces).

Important questions to ponder as we move through the rest of December, and close out 2020 are: How are you feeling?  Where are you deluding yourself and/or others?  What must be recognized, released?  Next steps to be taken, if any- have you thought about this?

Now, more about this powerful Eclipse on 12/14 11:16 AM EST.

This New Moon, Solar Eclipse takes place at 23 degrees of Sagittarius, hovering very close to the Galactic Center. 

*The Galactic Center is at approximately 27 degrees of Sagittarius and this will feel quite active around this time, so close to this Eclipse.

Galactic activations will occur.  This means that our physical bodies are more sensitive, our psychic impressions and experiences quite intense!  The more open you are, the more you will experience this.

New Moons are auspicious times of initiation and new energy, the time of the lunar cycle that starts fresh and begins anew.

Under this energy we manifest, we plant the crops that we desire to bear fruit metaphorically, physically and spiritually.

As this is a Solar Eclipse attached to the South Node, it brings with it a promise that has carried over from the recent North Node Lunar Eclipse on 11/30.

Going even further, look back to the June 5, 2020 Gemini Lunar Eclipse we had, and track what was happening in your reality at that point….this starts the story.

What will we let go (South Node) to grow (North Node)?

In some cases, outside circumstances will dictate next moves, while for others it is a conscious choice.

This Eclipse is being positively aspected by Mercury, the planet that rules over communication and information.  This serves to bring in clarity and consciousness.

Mars is also supporting this New Moon with a blessing, a sextile aspect.  Our instincts and drive are supported, as long as we are wrapped in good intentions.

I cannot stress enough that when your intentions are pure, you will be taken care of somehow please trust this!

All in all, this Eclipse and energy of the week after are leaning towards growth and positivity both on the personal and collective levels, but not without some anxiety present.

Change always produces feelings of anxiety.

As we move on through to 12/17 and beyond…we will experience the Great Conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter right at the time of another powerful Celestial point, The Winter Solstice.

This is a spectacular and miraculous event that brings us back to the times of the Three Kings, who were ancient astrologers that followed the star of Bethlehem…I will be back with more on that sometime over the next week or so.

If you would like to join me and a few others for conscious conversation and New Moon manifestation on 12/14 inquire and sign up here.

There are also a few spaces left for ‘An Evening With Spirit’ link for info and tickets here.

In the meantime much more on the Solar Eclipse/New Moon and the current energy leading up to the Grand Conjunction and Winter Solstice, below.

Much Love,

What is empathy?

Empathy: the action of understanding, being aware of, being sensitive to, and vicariously experiencing the feelings, thoughts, and experience of another of either the past or present without having the feelings, thoughts, and experience fully communicated in an objectively explicit manner.

Empathy is a gift.  

When we act out of empathy and/or when we are the receiver of an empathetic gesture, it  is such a warm feeling.

When you are displaying empathy, you do not think twice about it because it is who you are .

When you have empathy, true empathy , it comes from the soul and it is a blessing; a gift to others as well as to yourself.

On the flip side when another displays true empathy towards us it feels comforting because we feel seen, heard and cared about.

Even though that person may not be experiencing the same set of feelings and circumstances at that time, they are able to display empathy.

True empathy allows you to step outside of yourself, outside of the confines of your own ego to understand when someone else is in pain or need.

One doesn’t have to operate with great malice to do great harm.  The absence of empathy and understanding are sufficient.

The other person may not ever say ‘hey I need help, I’m overwhelmed’ or ‘I’m depressed and feel alone’- yet a person with true empathy will be aware of this (or something of it to a degree) and say the right thing at the right time to let that person know that they are in fact, not alone.

It does not take much energy to send a quick test message these days, let’s be real.

An example of acting with empathy is when a coworker is not feeling well, so you do some of their workload so they can go home early.

This person did not tell you “hey can you help I don’t feel well” yet, you take it upon yourself to just do it.

You do this because you feel that it would help them so that they don’t have to worry.

Besides, you may be the one in need one day, right?

Good ju ju, good karma.

This is displaying empathy.

Empathy is when a friend or loved one is going through a rough time, and even though you don’t necessarily feel that you have the right thoughts or words to share, you drop off a card and some brownies at the front door because you want to acknowledge them and do something.

Again, this is empathy.

Yes it may feel awkward, yes it can feel that perhaps your words and/or gestures don’t help or change anything but believe me, it matters when someone is in need.  In need of a hug, a kind word, a touch or a laugh.

Most times as humans we do not even know what it is that we need!

We just know that when we are acknowledged somehow it soothes the soul, even if temporarily and this is the gift of empathy. 

Empathy is underrated in this world that we live in…so when you have people in your life that display this trait?  Keep them close to you, because they are very very special.

During these chaotic times that we are living in, there are ways to emulate more empathy.

Act consciously, think things through.

Remain accountable for your thoughts, words and actions.

Do not let the need to be right all the time ruin important relationships.

Hash things out like adults, try and put the shoe on the other foot, look at where others are coming from…..there are two sides to every coin and sometimes three!

Be honest with yourself in regards to your own journey and ask yourself the tough questions.

Go inward, ask yourself why someone or something is sparking you, and where and if your own insecurities or projections have played a part in any misunderstandings.

Have you been making it all about you?

Assumption is not the way to go in life, it will serve to leave you in emotional tethers….and hey….if you don’t rock empathy you won’t care about any of this anyway 😉 .

Much love,

Lisa
