FULL MOON in TAURUS
November 8th, 2022
✧
It might be good to remind ourselves of the Eclipses in the Taurus-Scorpio axis, as this is one of a series that began last year! A Full Moon coupled with a Lunar Eclipse is a powerful event rooted in benevolent, practical, creative, intellectual, and compassionate themes. The 6 eclipses this one is connected to are as follows:
● April 2022: Solar Eclipse in Taurus
● May 2022: Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio
● October 2022: Solar Eclipse in Scorpio
● November 2022: Lunar Eclipse in Taurus
● May 2023: Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio
● October 2023: Lunar Eclipse in Taurus
There was a Lunar Eclipse Full Moon in Taurus on November 19th, 2021, last year. So, look back to any key themes and events, or self-realisation and self-discovery moments around this event.
Key qualities: -
● Taurus is the grounded and material loving earth Bull. This makes them very practical, responsible, reliable, trustworthy, luxury loving, pleasure-seeking, and instinctive. Taurus is deeply sensual with strong instincts and intuition, equally being able to attract material wealth and resources through being so practical and wise. Inner strength and determination in addition to abundance increase through the earth element, which is a strong part of this Full Moon.
● All things love, beauty, and romance come under this Full Moon as well, due to the planetary influence of Venus. Relationships come into focus in a major way…
Self-Love and Deeper Intimacy
Taurus is ruled by Venus, so the aspect of completion associated with it being a Full Moon combined with the Lunar Eclipse element provides gateways to your inner self. You will feel yourself more in tune with your subconscious mind, whilst simultaneously being alert and conscious to the messages and insights coming through your psyche. This moon is a call to self-love, intimacy within and around, and more meaningful relationships. IF you’re single you may be feeling more drawn to a passionate and committed relationship than you have in the past 2- 3 years. Excitement sparks, yet it’s a grounded type of passion and energy; it’s a loving, compassionate, and down-to-earth excitement that wants commitment and stability. People who have been single for a while could literally find their kundalini sparkle and shine with life force!
It's really important to be open to meeting a potential lover, or at least heal your sexuality and take steps to align with a soulmate in the near future. Intimacy is not just solely equated with sex; it signifies companionship too. Relationships come in all forms, shapes, and frequencies; therefore I wouldn’t let fears get in the way. This Solar Eclipse is a portal to your deepest desires and needs, and your deepest self. So, once you get in tune with your own sensual, self-loving, and intimate nature, transcending the fear and being open to love and companionship, you will find there is someone who can meet you on your level. Everyone emits their own frequency and vibes on their own wavelength… Soulmates (your soulmate) share your wavelength! Set some intentions to find love or a friend and companion you can journey with. This human experience is not meant to be lived in solitude.
Relationships with others aside, this is the perfect time for self-care. Journaling, introspection, meditation, nature therapy, and tuning into your Higher Self through spiritual or healing and holistic practices are all ideal. Remember: a Solar Eclipse connects you with the subtle realms and higher dimensions. It aligns you with your spiritual self, your soul body, and activates your auric field. This includes your rainbow body, kundalini, access to multidimensional and dream states, and ability to receive psychic, intuitive, and subtle messages and wisdom from the universe. Essentially, everything related to the spiritual and astral realms amplify. Through self-care, not only do you awaken your Higher Self, but you are better able to attract abundance. Universal laws including the law of attraction increase and become more readily available.
Grounded and Practical Wisdom
It cannot be stressed how powerful this Full Moon is for gaining or expanding your practical wisdom and security. Everyone’s feeling a lot more grounded now, but this down-to-earth energy comes with amplified intellectual and innovative gifts. Taurus is both kind and intelligent, compassionate and logical, and creative and artistic and practical. A balanced and high vibration Taurus woman or man emits positive vibes of wisdom, maturity, empathy, emotional intelligence, and warmth. They are very approachable- people know they can rely on them for a listening ear, or for some sage-like counsel or advice. Taurus is a natural manger and organiser, task-masker, and leader. But this energy available is not in the way a Leo or Sagittarius shines, for example. It’s very modest. Put all this information together and you will see how you have real potential to create some lasting foundations in your life.
Working with flower essences, essential oils, herbal remedies, and plants can ground you, as can walking barefoot on the earth. Hug a tree! Oh yes, Taurus is an old school hippy at heart, despite being so grounded and respectful of traditional values. Taurus sign has a well-developed heart chakra, which means they generally live by kindness, empathy, and an intrinsic need for emotional bonds and spiritual & psychological connection. They’re romantic and extremely respectful, and they love nature. Letting your inner maverick or bohemian spirit shine in a way that is not a rebel for rebel’s sake, but to consciously heal and rejuvenate your senses, will do wonders for your self-esteem. Spending some time connecting with nature can spark hidden or dormant talents, awaken creative and artistic gifts, and bring back memories of lighter and brighter times. Nature also aligns you with past life memory recall, and beautiful imagery and visions or visuals of youthfulness. Colourful memories from youth may come swimming into your awareness, which provide great inspiration for current projects and business ventures.

Aries
It’s Scorpio season, and guess what? You share the same ancient ruler! Well, you’re currently ruled by Mars and Scorpio used to be, so this gives you an affinity with this seductive and spiritual sign. This month is all about soul, sensitivity, and sensuality- being in tune with your emotions and the wisdom that arises from the emotional plane. You should be very mindful of how you use your words now, Aries. If you can tame your inner animal, you will find people warming to you. Headstrong, willful, aggressive, and overpowering, you can either be a force to be reckoned with or an over-forceful tyrant in the lives of others. I would suggest being inspirational, but the choice is yours…
Taurus
You could find new professional connections and opportunities flowing effortlessly to you this month, Taurus. It is your season when it comes to being seen as one of the top players, professionally. You should work that little bit harder to perfect and tweak your talents, skills, and services. Whatever field you work in, make sure you’re at your best- be at master or expert level! Then be friendly, outgoing, and warm to even people you’re trying to impress, form a professional bond with, or receive as a new client. Your key to success is to be your natural, emotionally intelligent, charming, and intelligent self in business settings. Do not give into superficial tendencies or thinking you must be stern and cold like others.
Gemini
You will refine your spark for musical and imaginative hobbies this November. Scorpio season lights up your inner artist, so don’t be surprised if you’re overcome by waves of wanting to show off your guitar or singing skills or take your side hustle artwork or poetry to the next level. Imaginative, intuitive, and creative energies flow in abundance… But there’s also a vibration of spirituality, sensuality, and a seductive soul. Scorpio’s influence is intense, so remember that ‘seductive’ doesn’t have to be perceived as negative; if you are ultra-sexy and soulful with the right reasons and good intentions, you can find deeper connections. Look towards alternative routes to healing and personal growth like tantra, kundalini yoga, or crystal therapy.
Cancer
This is a powerful time for self-realisation and self-reflection, Cancer. Perhaps you may realise that the distortion or lack of unity felt with a housemate is due to some misunderstandings. Scorpio season unites us by helping us to see we’re all a little mad inside! Spiritual life force and creative gifts are so high right now. You will be feeling more intuitive, imaginative, perspective, and wanting to express your inner magician more so than ever. If there’s been any confusion, disagreements, or tension with family, friends, or colleagues, you will find that conflict resolution is very likely and possible. You will further be able to see and even feel the motives and reasons behind any tension, as you're able to see multiple perspectives while accessing inner empathy. It’s a very sensitive but also artistic and expressive time.
Leo
You’re feeling conflicted this November, but inner conflict is actually a really good catalyst for you. You’re primarily intellectual and logical- very passionate too! Yet Scorpio season is all about the sultry and spiritual vibes; soul, intuition, imaginative forces… Any internal confusion you may be feeling is simply a pull in a different direction, thus take it as a positive sign that you have many opportunities. You may have formed some connections from years ago that you completely forgot about. You may have friends, peers, and potential high level business partners who you shared a resonance with, perhaps even offered a sincere gift or gesture of kindness, that have stayed in their memory. If life has become distracting, revisit your past to see what connections you may have overlooked. You are a very blessed person, Leo.
Virgo
A magical month for many, but you might be feeling a strong pull towards sorting out your house and home. Domestic and financial issues take the front-seat on your priority list; however, your home and family life will be infused with creative and imaginative outlets! You will instinctively feel to create a colourful and creative environment for your children, partner, or friends, whomever you're living with. Consider playing more music around the house that uplifts, inspires, and brings feelings of warmth and unity. Togetherness and a sense of community even within the mundane routines is very important. If you have a piano, guitar, or any other musical instrument (or artistic craft) set some regular time each week or every couple days. Keeping yourself in high spirits is an act of self-care.
Libra
Your charming, charismatic, and highly intelligent self is shining through in wonderful ways. There’s a perfect balance of introspective and socially outgoing energies available to you this month, at least, this is how you’ll be feeling. Like the advice for Taurus, you should spend sufficient time energising your creative and personal talents behind the scenes. Perfect your craft, and then step out into the world with passion and enthusiasm. If there aren’t any opportunities local or in person you can travel to, seek out connections and doorways online. Social media does have its benefits! In fact, there are many online communities, organisations, and social networks you can research and contact for future projects & partnerships. Whatever you do, don’t stay in introspective mode forever. Use it as a steppingstone.
Scorpio
It’s your birthday season and you’re feeling your inner glow come alive. As one of the most sexual but equally soulful and spiritual signs, your month could go in many directions. You might be wanting to spend alone time with your lover, partner, or soulmate. Romance is certainly on the cards. You could be wanting to isolate for a while and boss out your professional goals. If you have a home office, you will be attached to your creative den! See it as your personal sanctuary. The universe is giving you freedom this month to do your own things, advance your aspirations and dreams, and work diligently on your talents and unique gifts. Don’t waste this opportunity- certainly don’t fall into idleness or lethargy. Keep your emotional and mental health up by engaging in daily self-care practices and get enough fresh air whilst eating healthy. Your vibe is electric with an ethereal, magnetic, and sensual charm...
Sagittarius
It’s all about your aspirations and dreams this month, yet because Scorpio represents deeper connections; emotional bonds, spiritual connection, etc., you will equally be attending to domestic and worldly chores. Try not to neglect your duties or earthly commitments, because establishing a strong foundation is key to your success and growth. Your intuition is at an all-time high while seeing through other people’s (and your own) BS and games is core to the way you perceive now. Psychology, emotionally, and spiritually- you’re feeling on point. The only thing you need to work on is impulsive and lusty tendencies. Scorpio is the most sexual sign of the zodiac, while you are one of the most instinctive and primal. This mix can create bliss, soul-union and mind-blowing tantric intimacy on the highest of planes; or it could digress you into toxic behaviours. Aim for self-control and self-mastery of your sexual impulses.
Capricorn
Capricorn is the sign of the Goat who works diligently towards their goals and higher aspirations. One thing not everyone knows about you is that you have an idealistic side. People see you as modest, hard-working, and practical, yet you always have some larger vision or wish in play. Tune into this bigger-picture focus now. Skills you’ve already mastered and integrated, like organisation, problem-solving, managerial skills, and your ability to create order and financial wealth, can be used to take your endeavours to the next level. Explore your chakra system and how blocks in your energy centres and subtle energy bodies might be causing stagnation and resistance in your life. Reflect, introspect, and contemplate. Self-reflection is the ideal gateway to reaching higher states of consciousness, smoothing over past wounds & pain, and attracting prosperity.
Aquarius
Work your way up from Root to Crown and see your own life and personal journey as a reflection of your chakras. Energy starts in your Root, the center for security, survival, life force and physical instincts, and moves upwards until it reaches your Crown; cosmic consciousness, trust in the divine, spirituality… Awakening your kundalini can lead you to become the “perfect” and complete person you want to be. Ok, nothing is perfect, but imperfection is, in fact, a route to perfection, at least to feeling complete and whole inside. Healing is very important for you now, Aquarius. Your mind will be swimming and buzzing with new ideas, sparks of remembrance, and colourful innovative concepts to take your side hustle, career, or service to the next level. You’re a holistic and spiritual being, so spiritual and holistic practices favour you this month.
Pisces
Wow, what can I say? All eyes are on you. You’re so misunderstood and overlooked, sweet Pisces. People see you as sensitive, humble, and totally unassuming. As much as these are admirable qualities, it can often leave you dismissed and neglected. Well, Scorpio is your sister sign, which makes you feel completely comfortable to be your shiny, glowing, creative, and magnetic self. You may appear a bit mad to others- we are living in a 3D constructed illusion! But to many you are being seen as the inspirational and devoted being that you are, with many talents & gifts too. It’s time to let your light and wisdom shine without fear. Aim for self-expression, courage, and personal freedom because your bravery will let others be fearless and free as well. Awaken your inner chameleon for adaptability if you ever feel shy or in doubt.

NEW MOON SOLAR ECLIPSE in SCORPIO
October 25th, 2022
✧
This New Moon is coupled with a Solar Eclipse, bringing in a powerful spiritual energy and intuitive forces that can transform your life. Scorpio is the intense, spiritual, psychic, imaginative, resourceful, and intelligent water sign with two planetary rulers. Having a current and ancient planetary ruler adds extra dimensions into their personality. Pluto brings a psychic, transformational, and deep energy linked to the realm of emotions, while Mars provides a sense of action, competition, resourcefulness, and ambition. Read on to find out more!
Key qualities: -
● Pluto represents positive alchemy and magic on a deeper level. As the furthest planet away from us in our solar system, on an astral and energetic level Pluto provides depth, intensity, transformative powers connected to the ethereal and spiritual realms, and magnetism. Scorpio is the sign of the shamanic and telepathic, psychic, and spiritual powers. They’re extremely intuitive, so much so that one look or moment of eye contact from a Scorpio can spark intense feelings and inner sensations…
● The Scorpion, this sign’s glyph (astrological symbol) allows them to feel comfort in the realm of the subconscious mind. As a water sign, they are instinctive, psychic, imaginative, artistic, and gifted creatively and in terms of subtle perception. The hidden realm of feelings and emotions are where they thrive, and they have a lot of wisdom.
Imaginative Outlets that Serve the Soul…
Firstly, the best way to utilise the effects of this New Moon is to tune into innate imaginative and artistic gifts. As a gifted natural seer, clairvoyant and prophetic visionary (whether they’re aware of it or not) they receive a lot of hidden and subconscious wisdom from the subtle realms. This means, they are connected to both their conscious mind and subconscious mind. This allows them to receive valuable insight, wisdom, and profound creative visions and inspirational ideas from realms and dimensions many people don’t have daily access to. They are naturally psychic and clairvoyant and even clairaudient, with empathic abilities.
Instead of getting lost in addictive or repetitive cycles, drama or the 3D world, try to turn your attention to creative activities and outlets. Pick up an instrument you’ve neglected, get out your watercolour pencils or paints, write some poetry, or play around with a Tarot card deck… Spirituality, healing, and creativity are MAJOR gateways to the soul now, and therefore to abundance. The Solar Eclipse aspect adds a further dimension of being able to tune into the invisible world and realms for extraordinary insight and creativity.
Because Scorpio has the ancient ruler Mars as part of their inner driving force, you will find that this Scorpio New Moon activates a highly resourceful and ambitious streak. You can unify creativity with ambition, spirituality with making money/earning income, and soul gifts & talents with making a name for yourself, achieving success, and working towards fame or financial prosperity.
Reaping Positive Karma
Windfalls or unexpected opportunities for money making, or gifts out of the blue, may come to you if you have good karma. This Solar Eclipse activates hidden portals to all past positive experiences, sentiments, and actions, which means that anything you have yet to receive will surely come to you. Patience is required in life- there are many cycles and lessons of time to complete and experience before we can receive what is truly ours, our blessings. If you’re a good person with integrity, core morals, a good heart, and live by compassion, empathy, kindness, grace, etc. you may find some wonderful rewards for past actions.
Consider how you continue on the positive karma streak and evolve and expand. Explore how you can share your skills, gifts, knowledge, and talents with the world, within your community and local structures. Do so with pure and honest intentions, of course (not just to receive good karma!). Write books, lead, teach, inspire, make soul touching music, create videos centered around your area of expertise, share your specialist skills, coach, tutor, mentor, counsel, step into a healing role, make use of your qualifications, get involved in humanitarian or charity work, volunteer, innovate, support local organisations… the list goes on. Sharing your creative craft and artistry, or your knowledge and specialist wisdom, is important right now. The world needs your light. Scorpio’s influence allows you to use your intuition and higher mind to make decisions, and to act and speak or lead from the heart.
A Final Note
As a Fixed sign, Scorpio can be very possessive, jealous, and resentful or spiteful when hurt. This is them at a lower vibration. At a higher frequency, their Fixed nature allows them to create strong foundations and lasting change. As the main themes of this moon are inspiration, creativity, and the imagination, work towards practical structures and foundations in harmony with your gifts. Scorpio is courageous and extremely passionate, despite being known for their sweet, caring, emotional, and modest personality traits.
There’s also a positive Venus alignment/angel during this New Moon. Venus rules all things beauty, pleasure, luxury, romance, and female sexuality. Thus, you can get even more inspired through inner soul and creative gifts by recognising how we don’t just live in a competitive and masculine society. This “competition mindset,” emphasis on business over empathy and emotional depth or intelligence, and being direct and assertive without grace, sensitivity, or nurturing instincts only serves us so far. We must equally be in tune with our source of spiritual power, drawing wisdom and inspiration from the astral and feminine forces of the world.
There is a powerful sexual force present as well, as Scorpio symbolises intense chemistry, irresistible charm, and strong desires for love, intimacy, and romance. Scorpio is actually one of the most sexual signs! You should be conscious and self-aware of how your using (and expressing) your sexual energies. Shadow influences may come to the surface over this lunar cycle. You could find yourself devolving into lusty and primal desires- in excess; or wanting to evolve higher and connect to the more spiritual and higher aspects of life. If you’re in a loving relationship, consider how you can vibrate at the frequency of tantric love and divine soul union. This is a gateway to the higher consciousness and advanced, next-level, creative inspiration…
“Magical Mantras” for this New Moon in Scorpio
Aries: “I am a force to be reckoned with when I act with sensitivity and integrity.”
Taurus: “I am a powerful influencer and natural speaker. I motivate others in multiple ways.”
Gemini: “I use my intellect and voice for inspiration and positive connections.”
Cancer: “I establish clear boundaries in my energy field to evolve creatively and imaginatively.”
Leo: “My courage and playfulness let me thrive in both business and love.”
Virgo: “I allow myself time to rest and recharge, choosing an artistic outlet to grow and expand.”
Libra: “My mind is a gateway to the divine. I tune into Venus’ realm for incredible works of art.”
Scorpio: “If I can visualise it and dream it, I can manifest it!”
Sagittarius: “I am a visionary and idealist who aims to serve the collective.”
Capricorn: “My ambition and sensuality provide for excellence when combined.”
Aquarius: “Meditation, self-therapy, and spiritual activities open magnificent doorways to higher truth.”
Pisces: “I am allowed to shine and put myself first. I am selfless, yet self-loving!”
Full Moon in Aries
Assertive Ambition
✧
FULL MOON in ARIES
October 9th 2022
✧
This October’s Full Moon asks us to be assertive and ambitious without falling into Aries’ shadow side, aggression. It’s important to act with courage and passion now. It’s a time for going after our goals, striving for success and greater independence, and reclaiming our sovereignty. Aries rules the head and the ego, the individual “I” consciousness. They can lack selflessness and humility, but they are fiercely courageous and seek achievement and accomplishment…
Key qualities:-
● As the Ram, Aries is headstrong, instinctive, and assertive. They have powerful physical urges and instincts and can be quite stubborn. Being a Fixed sign by nature adds to this innate stubbornness. Because their glyph is an instinctive animal, Aries energy is characterised by force, inner drive, perseverance, determination, and immense willpower. They know how to express themselves and act and speak with passion!
● Mars, the planet of war and aggression, yet action, vitality, and life force simultaneously, rules Aries. You can either slip into your shadow self or rise into your light, at any moment. How you receive Mars’ energy and influence over this Full Moon all depends on how healed and balanced you are.
● As the first sign representing the Child, Aries can be impulsive, quick to anger, immature, and prone to a temper-tantrum type of energy. There’s a lot of karmic energy associated with this sign, and this means evolving, transcending and reaching new levels of maturity and self-awareness. These ‘lower’ qualities can be transformed into higher intelligence and wisdom, intuition, and creativity and innovation.
Channeling Sexual Energy Into Creativity & Innovation
As ‘the child’ of the zodiac who also has an animal glyph- the Ram, Aries is very impulsive, impatient and child-like, when in a lower vibration. They have a lot of sexual life force and a very strong libido, and this can make them prone to karmic and toxic cycles in love, rooted in their lust. Mars at a lower vibration is extremely lusty. It can also manifest as uncontrollable rage outburst, anger, aggression, bullying/intimidating behaviors, and mental confusion. Where can all that passion and zest go? Life force needs to flow somewhere. If it’s not being channeled into higher pathways, like creativity, innovation, and the intellectual realms and modes of expression, it’s getting stuck in the Root chakra. Aries symbolises physical instincts and vitality which connects strongly to the Root chakra.
The key to this Full Moon, taking all of the above into account (this is deep astrological wisdom!), is to channel and raise your primal and instinctive energies higher. Become aware of your sexual needs, desires, and libido. Get in tune with your body first and foremost. Exercise, work out, and engage in physical movement activities that really allow trapped or blocked energy to flow. Blocks in the Root lead to blocks in the Sacral, which is where you are able to communicate and interact with the world with warmth and emotional intelligence, express yourself sensually and creatively, and tune into imaginative & artistic gifts.
Once you feel you have “activated” and “sparked” any trapped energy in your Root and thus let it flow up through your Sacral, turn your attention towards the Higher Self. Your Higher Mind. Focus on creativity, innovation, invention, originality, and imaginative and intellectual outlets. How can you create abundance and blessings for yourself through innate mental and creative gifts?! Aries is deeply ambitious. They are resourceful with bright minds, gifts in problem-solving, analysis, observation, and perception, so tune into these once you’ve released some blocks from your lower energy centers.
Assertion VS Compromise
You will need to strike a balance in your life, due to the Moon being in Aries and the Sun in Libra. Aries and Libra are opposites; Aries represents the Self and Libra the Other. This aspect is all about balance, harmonious forces and finding equilibrium. Whether you’re applying this wisdom in love, family and home life, professional situations, or your career and services to others and society; aim for balance. Examine your own needs. Give respect to your own plans, goals, aspirations, and psychological and emotional needs, then turn your attention to the needs of others involved or those around you. Be mindful and conscious of how your energy affects them. Ask yourself whether your action or plan will create positive or negative repercussions for those around you. Also, whether it’s fair, just, and balanced?
Libra is all about justice and equality, while Aries primarily aims to serve their own interests. At a lower frequency, they can be selfish, supremely self-centered, and self-entitled; yet, at a higher vibration, they use their immense personal power and authority for change. Karmic force is then therefore projected into the world in a way that can inspire and help others.
Reflect on his with Aries VS Libra energy plays out in your life, and how you can develop and integrate a harmony between the two:-
● Assertion vs compromise
● Force vs fairness and equality
● Willpower vs adaptability
● Leadership vs teamwork
● Innovation vs intuition
● Self-autonomy vs unity consciousness/community
● Direct communication vs diplomacy
● Courage and boldness vs graciousness and empathy
● Independence vs companionability
● Competition vs cooperation
Passionate Self-Expression…
Passionate self-expression, self-leadership, courage, devotion, commitment to a path or project, and a fiery inner “yang” energy that allows you to draw from masculine qualities are all called for. It’s important to not become idle or lazy, giving into excessive t.v. movie or Netflix watching, or getting absorbed in the death of destruction of video games! All things 3D may tickle your fancy, but they misalign you with your true self and higher self; they diminish your sense of destiny. If you want to create a legacy, work towards a brighter and better future in any way, or heal, evolve, and shift to higher states of consciousness and being, this is not the Full Moon to overlook the powerful action-oriented energy available.
Re-energize your vision board. Get out old plans and project ideas and spend a little time reflecting on them. Think about how your unique gifts, talents, and qualifications can create abundance and financial security.
“Magical Mantras” for this Full Moon in Aries:
Aries: “I am a leader who chooses light over darkness.”
Taurus: “I use my wise perceptiveness and amazing logic to create prosperity.”
Gemini: “I transcend negative karmas through helpful service.”
Cancer: “Intuition applied in a practical way allows for expansion in my life.”
Leo: “A wise man knows when to compromise and play fairly for success…”
Virgo: “My determination and perseverance is the key to long-lasting happiness.”
Libra: “There’s nothing wrong with taking the lead and putting my own needs first!”
Scorpio: “My powerful intuition and authenticity opens doorways to love and abundance.”
Sagittarius: “I can heal the wounds of my past through releasing aggressive tendencies.”
Capricorn: “I am a boss and self-leader who uses sensitivity and grace to get ahead.”
Aquarius: “Originality, inventiveness, and intuition all expand when I listen to my instincts.”
Pisces: “My soul shines a light for others… I help to uplift the loving vibration of mankind.”
Aries
October is a great month to take control of your finances and make progress in your career and social standing. Go for gold, but remember to retain some humility and grace along the way. There are a lot of their personalities and people in this life who have different gifts to yours, but it doesn’t mean they don’t bring something sufficient or even extraordinary to the table. You’re the fiery and self-staring warrior who knows how to speak with confidence, inspire, and lead, so play to your strengths. If approached for a new collaboration or project, take some time to reflect and explore the energy and what is really being asked of you. Don’t rush into anything through impulsiveness and electricity. Slow down, analyse, introspect and meditate on it. Then be humble and charming when accepting your offer; new connections are on the horizon.
Taurus
Be mindful and stay cautious. The universe is asking you to use discernment in all moments and new meetings or encounters now. October is Libra season, and Libra is deeply analytical and intuitive with key observation skills. Greater subtle and even spiritual perception is called for- connect to your higher mind, your intuition, and your inner instincts where gut feelings are prevalent. New people may be sincere and have a lot of beauty and abundance to add to your life, yet they may be manipulative. There is both light and darkness in the world, both pure and honest people and more deceptive people who only bring BS. Nature therapy and quiet time can really help you to connect to the source of your heart and inner soul so you know who is right for you. Listen to this advice but do not live in fear; you have a lot of joy, positivity, inspiration, and beautiful partnerships headed your way!
Gemini
Can you stay centered and grounded while being aware of all the excitement around you? This is your task this month, Gemini. There will be a lot trying to distract you, but these distractions will come in the form of subtle sensations, impressions, messages, and emotions from your immediate environment. You may start to pick up on subconscious messages more, and emotional and psychological cues from the ether around you. Your mind is attuned to the realm of colour, music, sound, creativity, and intuitive and instinctive impressions linked to inspiration. There’s a lot of magic, in other words. But, as it’s a fellow air sign month (Libra season) you will be quite restless and easily influenced, hence why you need to ground and center yourself. Try to develop a daily meditation and self-care practice, as routine can be very helpful. Take care of your health too. Junk or processed food, artificial food preservatives and everything non-organic will limit and diminish your spirit, further polluting your level of perception.
Cancer
Go with the flow with style and self-composure, as Libra’s energy is letting you feel charismatic and full of creativity. It’s a very colourful and fun month for you, yet you’re also feeling very chilled and down-to-earth. Intimate and personal connections will serve you well in life. There are people looking towards you for healing, empathy, and words of wisdom. Balance your professional and personal goals, projects, and inspirational endeavors with the help you give others. You’re a natural counsellor and caregiver, yet you’re also empathic and therefore tend to lack boundaries. True happiness that reflects into the final months of 2022 will only come about through inner balance and self-love. This means, sometimes prioritising yourself! When you feel grounded and energised enough to support, let your wisdom and inner soul light shine through. You're so sweet and good-natured, Cancer.
Leo
Take it easy on yourself this October, Leo. There is a lot of creative and intellectual energy surrounding you and your work life, professional services, and any projects you may be working on. Libra’s energy adds a dose of charm, colour, and bright and intuitive creativity to the way you perceive and observe things, including the way you respond to challenges. Your talents will feel energised- you genuinely want to express yourself and show off your skills. But, you’ll do so in a way that is more cool, calm, and collected, aligned to teamwork and cooperative activities. It’s the perfect month for finding the ultimate work, rest, and play balance, and then integrating the wisdom and memory of the experience on a subconscious level, for future months and years. Any lessons you acquire now will be stored in your subconscious and thus will be forever accessible by your conscious mind. Overall, it’s a very positive time for self-development and career goals.
Virgo
Family, home, and domestic matters will be taking up a lot of your time, but so will social get-togethers and outings. It is a very social and upbeat time of the year for you, yet you’re equally full of duties and responsibilities. It may be hard for you to unwind at all! Your key to both good health and prosperity- an increase in flow of money and abundance- is to make some really big and significant diet choices. Go organic, eat more plant based protein (as opposed to dairy or meat), up your fruit and vegetable intake, and switch to some pure treats, like raw cacao. Seriously, your wealth is in your health this month. Sugary and processed foods, artificial alternatives, and unhealthy fats and carbs will cause a lot of stress in your mind. You worry enough as it is, you’re the most anxious and worrisome sign of the zodiac. So do yourself a favour and commit to a new health plan right at the start of October. Emotional intelligence and intimate connections improve in a major way as well.
Libra
You will find new work opportunities and partnerships, collaborations, and invites coming to you in abundance. Your personal magnetism and power are off the scale, you’re shining and everyone can see how talented you are. Educational and professional pathways from previous years are really paying off! Be open to new connections and clients. Say yes to life, be a “yes” person this month. But don’t be a people-pleaser. There’s a difference between having boundaries and choosing yourself first- being optimistic and open, and succumbing to your less desirable traits; the Libra shadow of appeasement and over-compromise. If you can balance your own needs and desires with teamwork and cooperation you will find yourself in the limelight, in a positive way. Inspirational, imaginative, intellectual, and intuitive qualities are available to you in mass.
Scorpio
It’s time to come back out of the bubble of privacy and secrecy you’ve created for yourself. There’s a beautiful aspect of harmony and love filling the air this month. People are generally more cooperative, harmonious, open-minded and heart-centered, and that’s because it’s Libra season. This will make you feel comfortable and even more expressive to be yourself, show off your talents, and present any mind-blowing works of art you’ve been securing behind the scenes. It’s a very social time- Libra is colourful, creative, innovative, charming, charismatic, and very bright. They have a chameleon-like energy, and being so fairness and equality seeking makes this influence ideal for more introverted and introspective types. People are accepting and empathic. If you’ve been searching for ways to monetise your talents, search for opportunities both online and in your social circles. Be verbal in your needs and the universe will respond.
Sagittarius
Your optimism, creative life force and passion are attracting a lot of positive people into your orbit this month. You’re a visionary with big dreams and goals. You dislike negativity and drama, so it's really important that you surround yourself with inspiring, creative, and innovative people. Stay clear of drama, chaos, and negative cynics and naysayers. Libra season can make us both open-minded and judgmental simultaneously- judgement is a natural part of life. In social circles and events, try to keep your role positive and inspirational without slipping into your shadow trait; superficiality and shallowness. There’s a difference between optimism and a lack of depth. Embody greater empathy and sensitivity- self-awareness too, and that positively project (or reflect) this into the conversations you have. Your communication is on point! People are drawn to your spirit.
Capricorn
Hidden gifts and soul talents will start to bubble to the surface. Everything stored in the subconscious realm, the inner realms of emotions, feelings, beliefs, instincts, subtle impressions, and spiritual and astral wisdom, will come to light, wishing to rise to the surface and intellectual plane. This is an excellent time for bringing your dormant or unexpressed talents and abilities to light. Express yourself intellectually, creatively, and imaginatively. Work on your intuition, how you can be guided by a higher source and higher light… Intuition is largely connected to instincts, the gut feelings you receive from bodily wisdom and sensations. A healthy diet or conscious fast over the New Moon period will amplify these abilities.
Aquarius
You will be feeling more romantic and companionable than most, and this is because it’s a highly compatible air sign month; Libra season. The cosmic current allows you to feel incredibly confident, even for those of you who are usually more reserved and introverted. Charm, confidence, high self-esteem, charisma, inventiveness, originally, and great ideas flow through you and from you. Your intellectual and innovative powers are amplified, while imaginative and intuitive abilities expand in your life. Because your libido is sparked through intellectual and psychological connection, this will make you crave intimacy on a deeper level. Try to seek out kindred spirit and soulmate bonds now. Even if sexual intimacy isn’t on the horizon, definitely be open to authentic displays of affection, platonic intimacy, and open-heart sharing. Personal growth and soul-evolution are big themes playing out in your life now and for the rest of the year…
Pisces
You’re blowing people’s minds, Pisces! Everyone is fascinated by the inspiring and courageous works of art you’re creating. You’re really putting yourself out there, and people are realising that you’re not just compassionate, kind, gentle, and empathic. Yes, you use your gifts of spiritual perception, empathy, and sensitivity to make amazing music, art, poetry, etc.- or to teach. But you’re also very bold and courageous. People see you as charismatic, colourful, and a bit of a creative genius and innovator this month, least to mention they can see you have a funky soul… Your key to continued growth and success is to be aware that you are the most humble sign. You’re so graceful, selfless, and self-sacrificing that it's perfectly ok for you to shine; it actually helps others be the greatest version of themselves. Be yourself and let the qualities of the New & Full Moons flow through you.
General Astrology:-
● Full Moon in Aries, October 9th: Key qualities to tune into include self-assertion, innovation, originality, creativity and intuition, ambition, and being bold and confident when it comes to goals and aspirations.
● New Moon & Solar Eclipse in Scorpio, October 25th: This is a powerful New Moon symbolising inspiration, imagination, creativity, resourcefulness, and turning soul talents and gifts into professional advancements and achievements.

Colourful Communication
✧
NEW MOON in LIBRA
September 25th 2022
✧
This Libra New Moon helps you align with your creative and intellectual sides simultaneously. It’s a time of colourful communication, the Arts, acting and self-expression, creativity and education. Everything to do with the mind is brought to conscious self-awareness. Also, how you make the most of intuitive, emotional, and magnetic gifts. You can find out more by researching which planets fall in the Cardinal signs in your birth chart, Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn. This will tell you what areas of life you should be focusing on.
Key qualities of Libra:-
● Libra is ruled by the symbol/glyph of the Scales. This makes them a seeker of balance and harmony, in all areas of life. Libra is both intuitive and logical, imaginative and intellectual, and adaptable and committed to higher reasoning. They are lovers of fairness, equality, diplomacy and justice, whilst often stepping into a role that allows them to facilitate these things.
● Libras are charming, colourful, incredibly bright, optimistic, upbeat and positive. They are highly liked in friendship and social circles, because they are so enthusiastic about life in general. They love learning, exploring, and broadening their horizons. They are artistic, imaginative, and creative and usually use some artistic gift or passion to bring others together. Unity is a primary life goal for them.
● Finally, Libra has a deep side that is connected to Venus. As the planet of beauty, sensuality, female sexuality and the Arts, Libra loves romance and forming deep bonds. They are both magnetic and electric, chilled and fiery, and adaptable and self-expressive. There are multiple themes and energies to draw from over a Libra New Moon…
Imagination Combined With Intellect
This is a time where you will be noticing how your imagination fuels your intellectual capabilities and vice versa. As a sign of balance, Libra asks us to get in tune with our higher
mind, the bright, innovative, intuitive, analytical and imaginative mind; where there are a range of skills and abilities present. This is because Libra’s glyph is the Scales, and the Scales equally represents the balance between the left and right brain hemispheres. Many people overlook the importance of this balance, but anyone who is even slightly psychologically or self-development inclined will know how significant the left and right brain hemispheres are. If we get stuck in one (side), we become out of balance. We are unable to see multiple perspectives in life, embody all the qualities mentioned above, and engage in subtle and holistic perception.
Libras are masters of seeing all sides of a story. They have multidimensional sight, and a chameleon-like nature and bright mind. This New Moon allows you to become self-aware of the different characteristics of your left and right brain. You may be engaged in a conversation, and suddenly have a realisation related to this. You might be writing, studying, speaking on the phone or to someone in person, or meditating; a spark and flash of insight flows to you!
The left brain symbolises linear thinking, math and science, analytical thought, logic, reason, rationality, and spatial awareness. The right brain relates to the imagination, intuition, music, multidimensionality, the “free flow” of thoughts, ideas, and information, and flexibility and open-mindedness. When reading these characteristics, do you feel balanced and integrated? Do you feel in tune with both parts simultaneously, or are there things coming up for you? Listen to your instincts over this lunar cycle. Don’t be afraid to admit where you may have been out of balance either, or what you need to change and improve in your life. Even strengths of yours that have been accepted by your colleagues, peers, friends, and family members can be altered now, without shame or fear!
Colourful Communication
Self-expression is a major feature. The Arts, drama, self-expression, creativity, musical expression, acting and performing, and anything related to the entertainment fields are brought to light. You’ll be feeling much more confident and self-empowered to express yourself, and this is because Libra is highly charming. They’re charismatic and generally courageous individuals. Yes, they have a shy and introspective side, but even this lights up their creative and intellectual higher mind. Being so in tune with the psychological and analytical realms allows them to shine in a number of situations, experiences, and social events. Imagine a chameleon, an animal Libra has been referred to multiple times… you can connect to the spiritual energy of the chameleon to help overcome fears and insecurities.
In fact, this is an excellent time to address personal insecurities and low self-esteem around shining, speaking your truth, and using your voice. A New Moon is all about beginnings and fresh starts- beginning new chapters in your personal and professional life. Consider how meditation and conscious introspection can help. This includes reflection, journaling, practising mindfulness in nature, and a range of other activities and pathways that let you “go within.” Libra is incredibly social, yet they also need their down time and chill time… and this is what lets them thrive in social settings.
Explore how the theme of colourful creativity shows up in your life as well. Take some time to examine how you embody all the colours of the rainbow when communicating with others. Learning about (or jogging your memory of) the chakra system can help here. The colours of the rainbow run through our body’s main energy portals, which are also known as chakras. Each chakra has a set of qualities and characteristics, so we tend to embody a certain chakra “frequency” when speaking and interacting with others. Eat the rainbow, embody the colours of the rainbow, and attune to the vibrations of each chakra frequency to enhance your relationships. This is a great way to make the most of this New Moon.
Diplomatic and Negotiating Skills
Finally, now is the time to work on your diplomacy and negotiation skills, especially if you work in a job or community organisation that calls for these gifts. You may find yourself stepping into more of a peace-making role. Or you could be the one who instils calmness and harmony in a group setting. Before leaving your home, make a conscious reminder to align with this aspect of yourself. This is not a time for war of wills, conflict for the sake of chaos and duality, or ambiguity, or sparking matches just to see how far you can rock the boat. A Libra New Moon is a time for compromise, mutual respect and harmony, and appreciating (and respecting) everyone’s needs and viewpoints.
“Magical Mantras” for this New Moon in Libra
Aries: “I radiate a warmth that is approachable and cooperative. I embrace a new and improved version of me.”
Taurus: “My light is a beacon for others, and they know they can turn to be for a benevolent and wise perspective.”
Gemini: “My need for social interaction should never replace peace and calmness in my life. Balance is what I aim for.”
Cancer: “Being nurturing and peace-seeking is the route to my lasting joy. I should never compromise my core qualities.”
Leo: “Creativity allows me to form lasting and meaningful connections in my life. I allow self-expression to fill my life…”
Virgo: “Playing the diplomat expands my services and income opportunities. This is where I should focus my energy now.”
Libra: “I command respect and love when I act from a place of loving service. I keep my intentions pure and balance self-love with cooperation.”
Scorpio: “Demanding and commanding respect are two different things. People respond to my intentions and energy, so I stay true and authentic.”
Sagittarius: “My philosophical mind helps to bring people together in times of chaos and confusion. Unity is the name of the game.”
Capricorn: “Being so practical helps to expand abundance for everyone around me. As a team player, I am a key player with a lot to give.”
Aquarius: “Brightness and innovation help to see me through any situation now. I embrace my originality with enthusiasm and passion.”
Pisces: “Being passionate and compassionate go hand in hand. I am learning it's ok to be both electric and fiery and down-to-earth and sensitive.”

Spiritual Maturity & Soul Evolution
✧
FULL MOON in PISCES
September 10th, 2022
✧
This month’s Full Moon occurs in Pisces while the Sun is in Virgo, making it the perfect time for finding unity and balance within the duality. A Pisces Full Moon is all about spiritual completion, and a Full Moon in general represents completion. So there is a really powerful empowering and enlightening energy available. This is a time of spiritual maturity, evolution of the soul, and healing from shadow personality traits and old wounds… while you align with your shiniest, best, and whole self!
Key qualities of Pisces: -
● Pisces is the mystic dreamer and natural healer who feels, deeply and intuitively, how others feel. They are empathic, kind, sensitive, caring, instinctive, psychic, and both creatively and spiritually gifted. Pisces has many skills in the artistic, imaginative, and musical fields. They are also clairsentient, clairaudient, clairvoyant and telepathic! Pisces are natural empaths and have both a healing presence and healing hands.
● Ruled by Neptune, Pisces symbolises dreams, illusions, psychic powers, intuition, spirituality, and coming full circle. Soul-evolution, healing, and spiritual enlightenment, in other words. Neptune allows this sweet and sensitive water sign to excel in the Arts, music, creativity, acting, performing, speaking, and anything that involves the imagination. Pisces are dreamers and visionaries who tend to live by the mantra, be the change you wish to see…
● As the Fish, Pisces has one foot in the material and physical world and the other in the spiritual realms and dimensions. Everything invisible, subtle, and hidden comes under Pisces’ influence, yet they are often destined for great success and abundance. This is because they are a symbol of unconditional love and universal compassion; they are very charitable, giving, and generous souls who are happy to help others.
Spiritual Enlightenment
A Pisces Full Moon is a true symbol of spiritual enlightenment, healing, and evolution of the soul. This is the Full Moon of the year where it’s essential to get in tune with your spirituality, authentic and conscious spirituality. There are two main themes to this. Firstly, you can explore old wounds and past painful cycles, including memories, and heal. It’s a time to release, surrender, and get real with your shadow self, which we all have. Secondly, it’s a time of looking forward to the future, not being caught up in old cycles and wounds. Once you have healed and become totally honest with yourself, you can then look towards your light side.
How willing you are to be authentic and self-honest will determine how able you are to embody your strengths. Romance, fertility, and harmonious relationships can all be yours. Abundance, financial prosperity, and mastering spiritual laws like the law of attraction and vibration too. It’s not a time to give into small or linear thinking. It’s not the time to get caught up in rigid thinking, focusing on insignificant details, or small-mindedness either. Pisces are dreamers and visionaries at heart, also being concerned with planetary well-being and healing. They’re holistic and incredibly open-minded; Pisces are, in fact, the least jaded star sign. Jupiter is their ancient (old) planetary ruler, which gives them an extra dose of magic and inspiration.
So, do some shadow work. Explore your wounds and childhood, ancestral, and family traumas. Journal, write your feelings down, engage in self-therapy, or see a hypnotherapist or reiki healer. Work on yourself. Then, and only once you feel like you’ve made significant progress, i.e. like the process of healing has truly begun, turn your attention towards your gifts, strengths, and talents. Because a Full Moon is a time of completion, it’s not the time to get “stuck.” Use your pains and wounds as fuel instead, as this will help you soar and elevate; emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually.
Infinite Expansion and Emotional Intelligence
You will find emotional gifts like emotional intelligence, maturity, and balance are what help you find a connection with the infinite. Jupiter has briefly been mentioned. Jupiter rules expansion, higher learning and education, philosophy, spiritual ideas, and moral and ethics. It is also the planet of travel, adventure, and abundance and prosperity. Neptune, Pisces’ modern current-day ruler, represents psychic gifts and instincts, breaking free from- or transcending- illusions and physical limitations and restrictions, and all things related to spiritual sight & vision, intuition, etc. Thus, you may be able to see the link already.
Pay attention to the emotional currents in your life, and the emotional themes taking shape. We are geometric shapes and patterns of vibration… We are infinite and expansive beings, with timeless souls. It is only the human body that is finite and non-eternal, yet our souls are infinite and limitless by nature. We also have different “bodies”- the psychological, astral, emotional, spiritual, and soul bodies. Use emotional currents and forces to navigate infinite and empathic waters. Empathy is a superpower that can come handy multiple times this month. To feel empathy is to know what it’s like to be in another’s shoes; to feel and sense, even see, their thoughts, emotions, internal desires, needs, wants, and emotions. Pisces function on an emotional and spiritual frequency.
This signifies that they have the unique ability of being telepathic, a gift similar to dolphins who communicate through supersonic radar. Or snakes and elephants who sense subtle vibrations and energies through the ground. You can use your bond with Mother Earth to catapult you to new heights.
Embrace Change…
There is a positive aspect to Uranus, while Pisces is a Mutable and therefore adaptable sign. This is a time of excellent flexibility and adaptability- in your career, personal relationships, family and home life, creativity, and social connections. You will find yourself naturally accepting things now, being more open to go with the flow, and generally just adaptable. With regards to Uranus, this planet symbolises innovation, conscious revolution, and evolutionary change, so this aspect can help you come to terms with certain things from your past. While embracing your bright and colourful future. There is a natural acceptance and harmony to things in your life, so long as you swim with current and not against it.
“Magical Mantras” for this Full Moon in Pisces:
Aries: “I learn to be more sensitive and open-minded for the best possible future.”
Taurus: “The soulmate connections in my life show me hidden and unseen parts of myself.”
Gemini: “Through coming to terms with my curiosity, I open myself to new and exciting connections.”
Cancer: “My spirituality and imagination are a catalyst to financial and professional growth.”
Leo: “Being a leader means knowing how to lead with charm, empathy, and sensitivity.”
Virgo: “I can learn a lot through my spiritual, free-spirited, and creative friends!”
Libra: “My charm and genuine desire to find peace and harmony allows me to manifest abundance.”
Scorpio: “Depth is not something to be ridiculed or mocked! I let go of the people who can’t or won’t appreciate my sensitivity and intuitive powers.”
Sagittarius: “My love of travel and cultural expansion allows me to find deeper connections and soul bonds.”
Capricorn: “There is nothing wrong with being loyal and caring… Kindness is a strength.”
Aquarius: “My idealistic side seeks expression with total liberation. Anything limited or restricted is let go of with grace.”
Pisces: “Divine grace is a state of mind and being; by being my true self, I open cosmic portals to higher seeing.”
Aries
Virgo season is a great practical time for you, Aries. Expect to see financial rewards, new clients and income opportunities, and a general increase in well-being and personal energy levels. The surge in life force you feel is in a down-to-earth, grounded, and level-headed way. There’s not a whole lot of passion and excitement this month, but the buzz you will feel is based on the practical foundations you are creating. Don’t be afraid to go for gold. Remember to play well as part of a team, as Virgo energy rules teamwork and a shared sense of collaboration; working together towards some greater goal. Try not to rock the boat, however do put your unique touch and innovative thoughts on things. People appreciate your inventive and go-getting nature, so long as you’re not bulldozing over everyone else. Romantically and personally, your relationships and family life might take up a lot of your time too. It might be a balancing act.
Taurus
If there’s one thing your down-to-earth and practical nature appreciates, it's other people who have vision and know how to work hard. Virgo season might be a time of hard work and extra pushes on the work front, but it also brings out the fellow visionaries idealists. This is because Virgo represents service, a desire to help others, society, and local communities, and be of service. You are one of the most idealistic and romantic out of all the earth signs, it won’t be a surprise if you find yourself attracting fellow romantic, artists, dreamers, healers, and heart-centred visionaries. Stay committed and aligned to your goals and dreams. But don’t forget to attend to the practical affairs and smaller details too. If you focus solely on the big picture, you may find yourself overlooking smaller details, or forgetting them altogether. Stay mindful of how each piece of the puzzle goes onto create the whole finished picture.
Gemini
Both you and Virgo are ruled by Mercury, the messenger planet of communication. Self-expression rules this month, in addition to running lots of small errands, taking part in community and family matters, and attending domestic, work, and personal chores. It’s a busy month for you! It’s also important to take some time to relax and recharge your energies, otherwise you could find yourself in mental burnout. Being so busy and proactive can also create problems in personal relationships, which come out at later times like in other months. This is because being so “up” can lead to superficiality and a bit of gossip, insincerity, and false intentions and promises made. Stay mindful. Combine a slow and deliberate approach with your high energy levels too, and don’t be afraid to appear slow and intentional, even unintelligent. This is your own insecurity and Gemini shadow projection- others don’t see being methodological and intentional as lacking intelligence! Practice mindfulness and meditation for the best results.
Cancer
Cancer and Virgo are considered real soulmates in astrology, yet they’re a case of “opposites attract.” You will find this theme playing out in your personal and professional life, Cancer. There’s a feeling of synergy, harmony, and cooperation and compromise. Yet there’s also a clear difference and clashes that need to be worked on. You would benefit the most from focusing on self-development and relationship harmony this September. Fortunately, you are so instinctive and psychic that you know how everyone else around you is feeling. Be conscious, kind, and caring, but don’t give too much of yourself away. In other words, focus on everyone else’s needs whilst engaging in self-love! This is the month you can really transcend being a people-pleaser and emotional doormat… If you have free time, focus on practical creativity, for example how you can add a dose of colour and artistic magic in your physical environments.
Leo
Be prepared for big money and career moves! You’ve just had your birthday season, and now is the time to reap the rewards of a year of hard work. Whilst the Sun is in Virgo, you will be noticing the increase in efficiency and determination to succeed. You’re filled with immense practical energy, an achievement mindset, and strong inner desires to create impeccable foundations, for yourself and for your loved ones. People are noticing you for your talents too, which is always a nice feeling. Be persistent and never underestimate the power of choosing work over play. Romance is heightened as well, so don’t think you won’t have time for love, intimacy, and fun times. Set a couple of nights aside on your days off for a lovely dinner, or fun outing. On days off, consider a walk through your local national park, nature reserve, or forest; or even a trip to the zoo (or animal sanctuary). Connecting with the natural world is the perfect way for you to unwind and keep your emotional health up to par.
Virgo
Your manifestation abilities are on fire… You have some amazing gits coming to you, and your emotional, spiritual, physical, and mental health are really, really, good! It’s important to stay positive now and not give into small or self-sabotaging thinking. You may have a few creases to smooth over before you can fully enjoy yourself, and see the fruits of your labour, but these will be easy to manage. Tune into your keen eye for order, organisation, and structure to amplify personal and professional victories. Success is certainly yours this September, but you will need to attend to final details and errands first. Once you’ve accomplished everything domestic, practical, and work-related, turn your attention to the relationships in your life. Your well-being and happiness come from close bonds, soulmates, and friendships.
Libra
What you put into relationships, your health, money and career, and the universe comes back to you. Hopefully you’ve racked up some good karma, Libra. You are one of the most peace and harmony loving signs of the zodiac, least to mention being a natural diplomat, counsellor, and peace-maker. People love you for your comprisable and open-minded nature. But have you been too appeasing for your own good? Do you still find it difficult to make decisions, and stick to them? These follies of yours will come under scrutiny. Virgo season asks your higher self to come out and shine, being totally honest and authentic with yourself in the process. Everyone has shadow traits to work on, and yours lead you into martyrdom and discontent when you become a people-pleaser. Take care of yourself whilst keeping karma and righteousness in mind.
Scorpio
It’s time to let your weirdness shine… In a world of following the status quo and confirming, breaking the mould is appreciated by many, especially the odd balls and black sheep of society. Although Virgo season is a time of structure and practicalities, everyone appreciates the friend who thinks outside of the box and breaks down illusions. As one of the most intuitive zodiac signs, you are a master of seeing through illusions. So have no fear when it comes to speaking your truth, feeling free to be yourself emotionally, and speaking and sharing with some depth and spiritual perception. People are seeking moments of joy and magic amongst the work and daily grind, and you are the perfect person to serve them this. Consider joining forces with a fellow water sign friend to create some magic in your own time. Know when to share and help others through your wisdom and intuitive light, and when to hold back and reserve your energy for those few special connections.
Sagittarius
Have you been overlooking important connections in your life? Virgo season is a call to modest, kindness, and a sense of purity. This means trying to transcend and heal through old wounds, including your tendency to form superficial relationships and be frivolous. You’re really starting to see how you may have made some “bad” choices in the past, choices that made you let go of significant, heart-centered, and authentic bonds and replace them with acquaintanceships that served your ego, at the time. Every Sagittarius has been frivolous, uncommitted, and a bit of a player in their youth. Some Sag’s take this energy with them into their 30s, or 40s and beyond! September is the time to evaluate the relationships in your life, and key professional, personal, and community ties and connections you may have once dismissed. The tribulations of youth don’t have to stay with you forever! Adopt the wise, discerning, and level-headed but gentle hearted nature of Virgo.
Capricorn
Go for gold this month Capricorn. Don’t let the haters or naysayers stop you, but also be mindful of your own tendency to be a naysayer. Virgo’s influence brings out our inner critic, which can manifest as being highly critical of yourself and others. Be hard-working, practical, and determined without becoming negative or succumbing to stress. Stress levels are what will make you think, speak, and act in self-limiting ways. Positively, there is so much wise and level-headed energy that you’re feeling on top of the world. You are filled with lightness in such a hard-working energy- it comes naturally to you. Keep one foot in the material world focusing on your finances and foundations, and another in the spiritual world. This is of course referring to your sweet, sensitive, and caring nature, which as an earth sign you excel at. Show your sweet and nurturing side to those you love, as this will improve your quality of life immensely.
Aquarius
You may find old wounds and past traumas coming up, no matter how big or small. This is because Virgo season is a time of purity, devotion, service, and smaller details. All of these aspects are making you digress and devolve into old patterns, or simply get stuck in the past. Not to worry though, because being conscious of this right from the start of the month will help you overcome it! Healing, self-therapy, a bit of soul-searching, and self-development activities are all what the doctor ordered. The real doctor is nature. You can trust nature, she has made a cure for everything, after all. All mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual imbalances and ailments have some natural remedy found in nature. Plants and herbs can be the source of new life force for you. Also, healing, wholeness, and emotional and psychological contentment.
Pisces
As your opposite sign, Virgo is someone you can learn a lot from. OK, you can teach them a lot, but you should be focusing on how you can integrate your more practical, grounded, and financially savvy side, Pisces. Pisces are terrible when it comes to finances- it’s one of your worst traits. You can be irresponsible, impractical, and totally away with the fairies… So make sure you're paying attention to this and taking steps to heal it. As we live in a dualistic world, shift your focus to your positive strengths too. Then become a teacher and way-shower for others. You have so many inspirational qualities, therefore it’s not a time- in such a hard-working and persevering season- to let other people's doubts or misconceptions of you dull your shine. Find the balance within so that you play the role of both teacher and student. This is your key to glory this September.

New Moon in Virgo
Be Your Own Boss, Think Big!
✧
27th August 2022
✧
This New Moon asks you to level up and boss up, to take the skills and gifts of Virgo but to remember the qualities of Aquarius too. Virgo is quite a small-minded sign- they are extremely focused on the small details. Yet we’ve just had an Aquarius Full Moon, which is still affecting us. This adds an expansive and visionary aspect to the Virgo New Moon. Be practical, work hard, and attend to your affairs, but stay focused on the big picture too. This is the message.
Key qualities of Virgo:-
● As the Virgin and Maiden, Virgo is a sign of purity and perfection. They strive for perfection in all they do, are methodological and hard-working, and believe in helpfulness and service. Virgos are some of the most helpful people of the zodiac. This month, you will find an increase in your desire to be of charitable service, engage in generous acts, and share your time, love, and resources with others. Be careful not to over-give or people-please, however! Only give or act from the heart, and in healthy moderation.
● Earth is a feminine principle while Mercury is a masculine planet, so there is a great balance of yin and yang energies available to you now. You will find yourself more practical and down-to-earth, and more level-headed, analytical, and intellectual simultaneously.
● The Moon is in Virgo while the Sun is Virgo too, which brings a unification of conscious and subconscious forces. You can harmonise and integrate your subconscious and conscious minds, find a healthy flow and balance of light and darkness. Remember that denying or repressing your darkness, aka your shadow self, leads to extremes. You may find your mind and emotions alternating back and forth between the subconscious realm of feelings, instincts, and emotions and everything received by your conscious mind. This is a good thing! Find ways to strengthen this connection.
Self-Leadership; BOSS Status
It’s time to transition to the boss level. Stepping into self-autonomy and self-leadership are key to this Virgo New Moon. You’re given a chance to take the perseverance, hard-work, determination, and steps towards success already put in, and alchemise them into a way to shine and succeed. Money and increases in income are definitely on the horizon. Peers and colleagues will be recognising you for your efforts and talents, while a promotion or raise could be on the cards. It is a very productive time and your professional life is soaring.
It’s a lunar cycle where you become your own boss. You will be thinking of innovative and inventive solutions to make more money, receive more clients, or be seen as competent and capable. Organisation, order and structure are really important to you now. You don’t want to appear like a slacker or like you just hustle to get by; you want people to see you as accomplished, or at the very least capable of getting stuff done. A Virgo New Moon is a deeply practical and grounded time.
You may also find yourself becoming a teacher, wayshower, motivational speaker, coach, or musician or entertainer now, or expanding these gifts. This is because the energy from the Aquarius Full Moon is still influencing us. Aquarius makes an excellent speaker, teacher, and writer. So any field or skill that makes the most of similar gifts & abilities will benefit from your attention. You’re seeking the spotlight, but in a way that allows you to create a strong foundation and financial flow- Virgo is still modest, at the end of the day. Aquarius energy is optimistic, upbeat, and energetic while Virgo brings the practical wisdom & magic. It’s a great combo!
Find ways to jazz up your website, business, or office space. If you already teach, lead courses, present workshops, or anything similar, consider taking your skills to the next level. Aim for self-mastery and expert level. Aquarius is highly innovative and original. They’re inventive, bright, and able to break the norms to transcend the status quo. This influence will be giving you an edge and colourful wave of creative and individualistic energy… Virgos are known for being small-minded, so it is important that you tune into the August Full Moon vibes too. Otherwise, you could find yourself becoming rigid and overly routine-focused, which doesn’t allow you to excel and shine.
Business And Spirituality Combined
It’s business as usual, with a spiritual touch! The key thing to be aware of is Virgo's opposite sign, Pisces. A main goal of astrology is to teach us how to look towards our opposite sign for healing, balance, and integration. In Virgo’s case, it is Pisces; the intuitive and spiritual dreamer who is extremely psychic, imaginative, and creative. Pisces energy can bring an imaginative and multidimensional touch to the Virgo New Moon. Instead of becoming overly concerned with status, social or public image, routine and order, we can find adaptability and flexibility within these frameworks. For example, look at your business model and see how you can apply a creative or artistic touch. Add some more colour or funkiness and soul to your website. Don’t be so dull and grey! Live as and by the rainbow, because you are a multitude of colours.
As the Virgin, Virgo is all about sacredness and purity. Thus, consider some feng shui or adding conscious items to your home or work office space. An actual altar or shrine will benefit you greatly too. Here you can do daily prayer, mantra, and intention setting rituals for self-alignment, personal growth, and prosperity. Find ways to connect to your inner priest or priestess (also, your inner shaman, witch, wizard, or healer). The one mistake you could make is assuming a Virgo New Moon is all about money, business, and practicalities. Virgo is deeply symbolic of purity and divine order- cleanliness, sacredness, and daily rituals included. Try to find a balance between the spiritual and domestic or practical aspects of life. Each can help the other.
Conscious Criticism
Finally, be aware that Virgo is very critical and cynical, of self and others. This influence is bound to show up in one way or another, so get ahead of the game by becoming conscious of your need to nit-pick and criticise. It’s perfectly ok to question and analyse, just do so in a way that doesn’t put others down. Judgement is a shadow flaw of Virgo, as is them always thinking they are right. Be mindful of your need to shame, blame, or put guilt on others. This helps no-one and creates unnecessary separation. If you’re going to form some judgments, express them in a way that can help, inspire, or uplift and unify. Ask yourself if sharing your opinions or perceptions are helpful, kind, and loving. If not, you’d be best to meditate and learn to transcend judgement and ignorance.

Full Moon in Aquarius
Illumination, Individuality, & Idealism
✧
11th August 2022
✧
August’s Full Moon occurs in visionary, idealistic, and highly original Aquarius. Aquarius is represented by the Star in Tarot, the original and bright-minded dreamer. The Star is a symbol of our own stardom within and of a higher consciousness. There are very strong humanitarian and altruistic themes to this Full Moon…
Key qualities of Aquarius:-
● Aquarius’ glyph (astrological symbol) is the Water-Bearer, making this sign both highly intelligent, thriving in the realm of intellect and ideas, and a master of alchemy. This means they can alchemise and transform emotions and subtle impressions from their environment into higher thought forms. Aquarius is deeply intuitive, whilst having bright and innovative minds. They’re problem-solvers, creative geniuses, and completely original thinkers.
● This is an excellent lunar cycle to fine-tune your speaking and teaching skills, because Aquarius makes amazing speakers, teachers, and self-leaders. Any field they choose to master, they can become an expert in. Wisdom and expertise are available to you now.
● This air sign’s planetary ruler is Uranus, the planet of originality, innovation, invention, and awakening. Conscious rebellion and revolution too! Expect new ideas to come streaming to you, and an increased desire to open yourself up as a channel to receive all the universe wants to send your way. Uranus helps to bring big shifts, both internally and externally, individually and collectively; specifically regarding consciousness and how we can co-create a more beautiful world together. Explore your birth/natal chart to discover what sign Uranus falls in, as this can provide more insight into where you should be focusing your energies.
Emotional Alchemy
You can really transform your emotions into gems and pearls of self-knowledge. The general theme of the month is listening to the undercurrents around you and within, the emotions, hidden feelings, and instinctive responses, and then transforming those sensations and observations into wisdom. Emotions become doors to higher truths. You can alchemise and transform, bringing into intellectual and even inventive or innovative solutions and ideas. People with emotional intelligence and empathy are great- the world certainly needs more empaths, healers, and dreamers! But sometimes staying stuck in a solely emotional frequency can become “heavy.” We may forget the importance and power of logic, higher reasoning, and problem-solving. Aquarius helps us to shift past this.
Pay attention to yours and other’s emotions this August. Respond and don’t react. Observe, listen, stay silent, and use your brilliant brain to draw rational and intuitive conclusions. Then, share your wisdom, presenting your reflections in a way that can inspire, heal, educate, or teach. An Aquarius Full Moon is concerned with enlightenment and illumination, i.e. how can we take our emotions and inner realm of feelings and bring them into conscious light?
It’s all about making the unconscious conscious, and this includes aspects from our subconscious mind. Emotions are closely linked to the subconscious. Consider doing some Moon Gazing on the night of the Full Moon. Charge your crystals outside in the moonlight, and then perhaps do a lying down meditation with the supercharged gemstones on your chakra points. Remember that a chakra is an energy wheel or energy portal in ancient Sanskrit; they are powerful centres to healing, well-being, and longevity.
Idealistic Intentions
A strong sense of idealism and humanitatism, or altruism and universal love and compassion, will light up your life. You’ll be thinking a lot about kindred spirits and community connections, group bonds and events and how you can work as part of a conscious and loving team. This signifies wanting to do good in the world, to create strong structures and lasting foundations for future generations to come.
Teamwork, harmony, cooperation, community, friendship & social circles, and altruistic endeavours are where your time and attention should go, if you wish to make the most of this Full Moon. Hopes, aspirations, and wishes for your future and the future of others will be on your mind as well. This is the perfect time to consider making money off of your talents and passions, so that you can create an abundant and happy home-life for your children. Some of aquarius’ favourite things are art and music, therefore you may find bright ideas flowing to you on how to monetize from side hobbies or passions.
Think outside the box, further realising that there is no box! The idea of the box was created by society to keep us caged- Aquarius recognises this. We live in a holographic and spherical or circular universe, from the smallest of atoms to each galaxy, life is spiralling and spherical in nature. The spiral teaches us the concept (and reality) of infinity; how everything is infinite and eternal in nature. The illusion of the box keeps us trapped and limited, on the other hand. Open your mind to universal archetypes and quantum concepts. Be prepared to take a mini journey down the rabbit hole, or see things from higher and more expansive and spiritual perspectives.
Balance Team-Work With Independence
Finally, there’s a yearning desire to both shine and take the spotlight, and play well as part of a team. Your inner idealist will want to do both. But Aquarius is a great leader, usually not conforming or following the crowd. As this energy can be quite dominant- air is a masculine element, by nature; you need to be mindful of the way you exert your influence. It’s essential to stay connected to your compriseable and cooperative roots. However this doesn’t mean you should sink into the background or not speak up and share your views. Your wisdom, experience, and perspectives are important.
Now it’s really all about finding the balance between finding harmony and unity in a group or team and taking a leadership role. This Full Moon is quite unique in the fact that it allows multiple people to be leaders, without anyone feeling overlooked. If you want success and forward movement, you will really need to learn how to listen and speak, stay silent and be vocal, and contribute in a way that allows you to shine whilst not taking over the spotlight completely. The lesson is the same for everyone. The rainbow wants full expression, all its colours want to shine!
Imagine a beautiful orchestra symphony… sometimes there is silence, other times a celebration of overlapping sounds working together to create a masterpiece. In some moments there is a crescendo and in others a diminuendo… Aim for the full spectrum of colours, vibrations, and frequencies in any social or group setting.
