NEW MOON ON MONDAY ASTROLOGY

By Adeline Leigh

The Full Moon in Aries happens Tuesday evening (7:06 pm pdt), and this one’s packing a punch.  A Full Moon is always an opposition between the Sun and the Moon, but this month, the Sun is conjunct Saturn as well, so the planet that’s all about setting foundations gets added to the mix.   Saturn brings permanence – watch for situations that have been uncertain at best to finally get some resolution.  At the same time, Venus will be the first of the personal planets this month to oppose Jupiter (currently in the early degrees of Taurus) from sultry Scorpio.  Jupiter is all about expansion, but also exaggeration.  Watch for taking your ideas or your emotions way too far.  Mercury joins Venus in Scorpio early Thursday morning.  There will be some heavy conversations to be had toward the end of the week but the deeper communication will bring way stronger bonds – especially with Saturn in the picture.  Stay connected to what’s going on in your story and you’ll start to see some gigantic possibilities.

ARIES 

The more you run from what you ought to be doing, the harder the obligation will hit when it finally catches up.  You know exactly where you need to be headed, but chances are big that you’re hiding it from yourself, if only out of the fear of responsibility.  The Full Moon in your sign tomorrow night is giving you the green light to step up to the plate will full confidence.  You can absolutely handle what’s coming next and even better, you’ll be feeling more empowered than weighed down. Pay attention to your dreams. 

TAURUS  

Read for last week.  If you’re feeling frustrated, find your trademark patience.  You’ve got plenty of opportunity to make your circumstances stronger right now (especially in relationships), but that requires keeping the faith.  Any challenges you’re facing are simply proving how much stronger and clearer your intentions have become.  Keep the lines of communication open and make the effort to share what you’re just now starting to understand with those who matter most.  It will take work, but the payoff will be well worth it.    Thursday and Friday are the best days to start talking. 

GEMINI 

Keep your commitments and mind your calendar.  If you’re getting too lost in the reverie stuff, Thursday might bring a very rude wake-up call.  This week you’ll see how your action (or lack of it) can affect all the people around you.  The good news is, you’re also starting to see how simple it is to make compromises that help you get more space and freedom than you’ve ever had before.  Keep on working at it.  The weekend is perfect for conversations where you prove to the most important people how very far you’ve come. 

CANCER 

You’ve got some adjustments to make.  How you make them is up to you, and has everything to do with what you know works for sure versus what you think other people might be expecting.  Tuesday’s Full Moon in Aries is the perfect opportunity to realize where and how it’s time to start thinking for yourself, and even better, start acting on it.  This is obviously not as simple as it sounds, but it is as easy as trusting your intuition.  You totally get it, all you have to do is see that for yourself. 

LEO 

Random acts of kindness never have to be complicated, and this is the perfect week to pass them out wherever and however you can.  This next year has everything to do with involving yourself with people and becoming an integral part of a community.  The more you begin to do that, the more you’ll find a very pleasant place to shine.  You’ve learned a thing or two lately about how letting others in can get you farther ahead in your own goals.  The more you can remember that, the easier it will be to do.   

VIRGO 

Access your social side.  Not just the part of you that’s so good at listening, but also the part that’s great at saying something worthwhile back.  This is the time to make some very important connections.  Putting what you’re feeling out there right now will bring some understandings you haven’t been able to find on your own.  Even if you still feel more like keeping to yourself this week, push yourself to share some time with someone else and you’ll likely make some worthwhile discoveries by Sunday.  It’s all about getting things to start growing. 

LIBRA 

Back to business.  The only way through your current situation is some good old-fashioned gumption.  The thing is, once you get started it will go much faster than you’re anticipating.  Tomorrow night’s Full Moon in your opposite sign is shining the spotlight on how ready you are to prove it.  Trust yourself – you’ve got more to give than you think you do.  The faster you jump in and get started, the sooner you’ll regain any lost confidence.  It always helps to think of it more as a challenge than a chore.  Whistle while you work. 

SCORPIO 

It’s all about learning where you need to let some stubborn go.  You’ve got plenty of opportunities this week to use your words and your grace in a way that lets the most important people see how much you’re really ready to work with them.  Start talking now and you’ll have the art of communication mastered more than ever before by the end of the year.  You’re about to see how letting go of a certain mindset can free you from your own anxieties as well as anybody else’s expectations.  Watch out for some serendipity.

SAGITTARIUS  

Venus opposes your Jupiter ruler all week, giving the next few days the theme of “Me vs. Us”.  Sagittarius loves its freedom more than any other sign, but certain circumstances are showing you how commitments can sometimes give you even more breathing room.  It can be easier to take bigger leaps when you’ve got a safe place to come home to.  Think about the people in your life that not only enable you to be completely yourself, but also inspire you to go farther.  Right now, you’re able to find more of them.  Take advantage. 

CAPRICORN 

You’ve already begun to figure out what you absolutely can’t change, now’s the time to start accepting it.  The alternative involves feeling completely inadequate, and that’s the last thing a Capricorn is willing to accept.  It’s all about your expectations – and that means of yourself as well as others.  Lucky for you, expectations are the easiest thing to adjust.  Find the balance between what you need from those closest to you and what you need to give back to your most mundane situations and you’ll have the first big clue about where to go next. 

AQUARIUS 

Stay focused on what you’re trying to build for yourself, but feel free to take some time off and appreciate how much you’ve acclimated so far.  You’re in the midst of a fairly major adjustment to your circumstances.  As long as you can remember how far you’ve already come, you’ll be able to weather any tendencies toward escapism.  Whether you realize it or not, what you’re doing for yourself and your cause is setting a pretty decent example for the rest of us.  The more you can see that, the farther you’re about to go. 

PISCES 

Your Neptune ruler gets a call from Mercury and all of a sudden there’s people to talk to everywhere you turn.  Everyone you encounter right now is showing you something about how you’ve learned to keep your own stuff separate from the vibes everybody else puts out.  Don’t worry so much about what you might be revealing, other folks aren’t paying that much attention.  This week, it’s a lot more about showing you what’s yours and what belongs to other people.  The more you can remember that, the more compassion you’ll be able to feel.
