Full Moon in Cancer by Flavia – 10 January 2020
Mercury is making his presence felt. He is the God of rational thinking and the supreme leader of communication. Without him nothing moves, nothing gets exchanged. The card naturally appeared out of Kyle Gray’s oracle deck as his own first act and PR manager – all in one. And with good reason too. Around the 10th of January we are having a full moon and a lunar eclipse in Cancer, 20 degrees. By far the most significant astrological event in 2020. Not least because it is followed by one of the most discussed and anticipated celestial occurrences that has astrologers talking about for decades. It’s the conjunction of Saturn to Pluto, and Sun conjoining Saturn and Pluto, all taking place in Capricorn. So these power players in heavy, ambitious, depressed, earthly Capricorn are undoubtedly colouring our earthly experiences. Capricorn is associated with old age, big authority figures, heritage, old buildings, massive historic structures, physical or otherwise, and things dying in the material sense, in general.
As if this was not enough, a day earlier, the so called liberating and unpredictable Uranus, goes direct in Taurus. A sign concerned with values, worth and materiality in all its’ shapes and forms. A day later Venus moves into Pisces rearranging and dissolving our experiences of love and self-worth just as we thought we knew what was going on.
But in the whole, what will in fact influence us in our particular everyday life is mostly the fact that mischievous, talkative, expressive Mercury jumps in there to reorganise and bring meaning to the others. Mercury is young, fit and beautiful. He moves fast. Remember he has the freedom to go down to Hades and up to the heavens to deliver messages. So the way we think around events on the outside, the way we perceive information and the way we analyse our environment is crucial. It will make all the difference. It’s time for serious thinking and, unfortunately, Mercury will not only communicate sobering decision making, but will also bring us depressive thoughts and anxiety.
While at the moment action God Mars is in Sagittarius – and both Mars and Sagittarius are quite militaristic – our reactions tend towards the scattered and impulsive. Instead, use Mercury’s rationality to stay mindful and progressive. Talk to others. This is not the time to keep things bottled up. With conscious discerning thinking and Mercury’s help, we can move beyond difficult situations, painful endings, lose, unpredictable events and fear dominated reactions. Mercury doesn’t judge and doesn’t waste time with self-pity or incrimination, he flies free opening up channels, bringing healing by transporting goods and ideas, and communicating messages so we can live with more knowledge and wisdom. Trust the universe and trust your Mercurial powers to make the right choices everyday.

New Moon in Sagittarius – 22 November 2019
A new moon is always a push forward. But this time the new moon is also big in blessings. And it’s spiritual. We are in the New Moon in Sagittarius. With optimism and open to new possibilities, it’s the sacred self that will guide us. While all the big planets are sitting in earth and fixed signs we are grateful for Sagittarius fire. It’s the spirit to propel us to something magnificent.
Venus will be meeting Jupiter, and both will enter ambitious but also limiting Capricorn later in the month. Their meeting in Sagittarius is significant for what we value and our beliefs are now rooted in a grand context. Mercury already moving ahead in Scorpio makes for a focused and powerful energy that is coming to push forwards and outwards into the world. The muddled sense of lack of direction permeating the last few weeks is replaced by a forceful desire for learning, for exploration, for achieving with others something bigger than ourselves.
Both Shekinah and Diana are spirit goddesses of the Moon energy. Sacred self is wisdom. Focused intention will bring forward gifts. Intuition is accentuated. It’s a further reminder that we have not yet left Scorpio’s feminine influence, so being strategic, calculative, passionate for what we want but also going all out with purpose, assertiveness and determination are with us. It’s a hunt and a prayer.
Sagittarius represented here by Diana will guide us to aim high and to always strive to transcend our situation, looking for justice and higher purpose according to our authentic self. On a more material level, Diana, Greek Goddess Artemis of nature and wildlife among other things, will encourage us to find our strength and mental focus by going out and making the most of the physical environment.
Love and life are everywhere outside, day and night. It’s time to think hard about our desires and go after them without fear! There is no need to hold back. The best will materialize.
