New Moon on Monday Astrology

 NEW MOON ON MONDAY ASTROLOGY

By Adeline Leigh

The action keeps building as we approach Saturday’s Full Moon in Aquarius.  Aquarius is a sign that has everything to do with the collective, and doing what’s fairest for everybody involved.  This is a great week then to start coming up with ways we can use what we’ve already learned to start moving forward instead of sideways, together.  Mars, newly moving through the sign of Cancer will be confronting both Pluto and the planet Uranus this week, activating the Grand Cardinal Cross and pushing us all to action.  The more we start to do, the better we’ll begin to feel.  But remember to keep your eyes on every detail and have a backup plan: Mercury Retrograde backed into Leo early this morning and might be looking to get some attention.  Next week: back to the love stuff.

ARIES 

You’ve got plenty of things you need to take care of.  The good news is, every chore and every errand you get through now is taking you closer to something better. Keep checking things off your list and you’ll move ahead and pick up some brand new, very good habits.  The more you procrastinate, the more you’re just resisting the inevitable.  Keep tying up the loose ends and this transition won’t seem nearly so uncomfortable.    

TAURUS  

Watch out for oversimplifying things – especially when it comes to your closest relationships.  The situation you’re concerned with is absolutely not as easy as black and white.  The more attention you can pay to certain subtleties in another’s behavior right now, the more you’ll be able to see the motivation behind their words.  This will lead to an understanding that changes everything from here on out.  Saturday’s Full Moon in a challenging sign is your first chance to show off your newfound knowledge.  Good thing you’ve got plenty of energy. 

GEMINI 

If the week starts out on a foggy note, know that things will be all cleared up by Saturday’s Full Moon in Aquarius.  You’re feeling a new kind of courageous right now, ready to stand up for yourself and others in any area where things just don’t seem right. You’ll be surprised at how absolutely simple it will be to rally people to back you up.  It’s time to start doing something about a very apparent issue and this week, you’ve got all the power in the world to start making that happen. 

CANCER 

When Mars is travelling through your sign, it’s important to stay in motion.  Mars brings pure energy, and if you don’t use that energy productively and outwardly it can become anger turned inward, and that’s never the best mojo for moods.  The good news is, you’ll have no problem staying busy this week. Luckily you’re still ready for an adventure.  You’ll be meeting plenty of new people with all sorts of different persuasions.  Watch out for having to make some adjustments to your plans, but know that these will bring something unexpected and even better. 

LEO 

You’re sitting pretty as Venus and Mercury approach your Sun ruler for a weeklong fling.   Watch for finding creative solutions to the dullest of problems, and finally getting past some issues that have been tripping you up for days.  Even better, the warmth you’re radiating this week will be showing the rest of us how much you’re willing to give back.  Set an example by showing off this newfound confidence wherever you can. The Full Moon in your opposite sign is the perfect chance to shine as brightly as you want to. 

VIRGO 

With your Mercury ruler retrograde and opposing Neptune, the planet that’s all about escape, it’s the perfect weather for taking some time off.  If that’s not a possibility right now, find a way to be around friends whenever you can.  But watch out for feeling nostalgic.  You might be trying to recreate situations from your past in order to figure something out about your present.  The more you can let go of expectations from old associations, the more you’ll be rewarded with brand new interactions that are stronger and more supportive than you’ve ever known. 

LIBRA 

More of the good stuff.  You’re likely to be the center of attention this week as the shiny Leo Sun begins its weeklong merge with Venus, the planet that rules you, and Mercury, the planet that gets everybody talking.  Just make sure to remember that you can still be this strong and feel this competent when you’re all on your own.  Enjoy the spotlight, but don’t let yourself start relying on it. If you’re looking to anybody or anything else to fulfill you, you’re looking in all the wrong places.  Pay attention to what you’re dreaming about. 

SCORPIO  

Balancing act.  It’s still mostly about you – but it’s important to weigh what you really need most right now against what you can save and share with the rest of us.  Look especially at how well you’re conserving your enthusiasm for other people’s projects and news.  You might be so preoccupied with personal business this week that you forget to show up when you said you would.  Again, keeping your eyes on the details and the small stuff right now will go a million miles toward avoiding any angry confrontations.  Check your calendar. 

SAGITTARIUS  

Read for last week. It’s still all about staying busy, but these days you’d have to make a concerted effort not to be.  As much as you continue to be concerned about how you’re going to come up with some very vital resources, the weather right now is supporting you in every possible direction.  You’re surrounded with people who know about more opportunities that are coming your way than you even think possible as the week begins.  Keep your eyes and ears open over this weekend’s Full Moon and remember to believe in the best about yourself. 

CAPRICORN 

The only person you need to be competing with is you.  Remember that this week when you’re confronted with absolutely anything, especially if it seems at all aggressive.  You’ve got some busy days ahead, with plenty of places to be and people to talk to.  Go ahead and let others take the lead, or at least let them think that’s what they’re doing.  As long as you’re sticking to your own standards nobody else will be a threat. The more you really know that, the more sure of yourself you’ll seem.

AQUARIUS 

Aquarius has a tendency to hold on too tightly to people and things, but chances are right now you’re ready to move on and make room for something new.  The Full Moon in your sign is helping you see, very clearly, just what direction you need to be taking right now.  You haven’t been this certain for months and it feels fantastic.  Stay practical about it though.  This isn’t the time to start sharing your plans with just anybody.  The longer you can keep them to yourself the more they will begin to mean. 

PISCES 

Emotions keep coming up to the surface this week.  The tendency toward insomnia increases for all of us during any Full Moon - watch out for feeling more anxious than usual and letting your thoughts run wild.  Here’s the good news:  you’re able to find enormous creative inspiration and synchronicities all over the place right now - as long as you’re looking for experience more than escapism.  Be all about the moment and you’ll soon start to see that what you’re worrying so much about isn’t even really the root of the problem after all.
