Friends! Here is another Full Moon video with the masterful Dane Hurt!

I would love nothing more than to explore the astrological dynamics of this full moon manifesting in your world. Please reach out!

Here are some extra notes to flesh out this video.

The Full Moon will be exact around 10pm Saturday night. Notice how close Pluto is (the chart is below). Juno is also in that neighborhood, and Jupiter is also in a pretty tight T-Square. Mars and the Sun will continue to hang out pretty closely for another month.

The Sun is currently in the Vedic Nakshatra of Punarvasu which is in the middle of Gemini (Sidereally). It means the ‘Return of the light,’ after Ardra’s intense, stormy feeling. This is where Castor and Pollux are, the Gemini Twins that are called ‘the two that return the good.’

Here we might find a lot of hope for integrating whatever this sad, grieving, or even angry energy. Castor and Pollux speak the wholeness that’s experienced when the light and dark are in communication with each other, or even blending into one another.

The Moon on top of Pluto, is an indicator of even more intense shadow-y darkness. We can remember that we can turn shadow distortion into savory soulfulness through alchemy. Cook something to its essence, bringing the light in, and find the polarities dissolved into something sweet. Pluto is another form of Hades, who’s name just means riches.

Juno hanging around Pluto could suggest that some of this shadow would come through and be projected onto the partners we have in our life. If there’s drama, consider that we might be experiencing a pull towards some aspect of ourselves that wants expression.

Jupiter squaring the Full Moon could speak of a reworking, release, or renewal of different spiritual teachings. You might especially look towards those that help you feel like you’re able to express your power and living your mission in a safe way.

Mars with the Sun likes to sweat. Right now we’re undergoing a death and rebirth of the masculine, letting go of those Yang methods of engagement that are less than clear and finding within us something truly heroic. Sweat out what isn’t working, and welcome in the new champion.

Chiron will be retrograde until December. This might be a time to find novel ways to heal yourself, listening more closely to the energy of whatever ails you. Dip into a meditative state and ask it questions, then you might be able to hear and fulfill its dream even more than it expects.
