New Moon in VIRGO
~ Well-Being, Financial Prosperity, & Self-Responsibility
✧
September 7th 2021
✧
This month’s New Moon falls in practical and supremely detail focused Virgo. Virgo is the Virgin of the Zodiac, the Maiden who represents purity, a strive for perfection, and the earth element. Key words to describe the Virgo sign are hard-working, practical, dutiful, service oriented, helpful, sweet and kind, moest and responsible. So, you can expect all of these themes to come up! Don’t forget to check your chart (natal/birth) to see which planets, if any, lie in the Mutable signs Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces.
Virgo key qualities:-
● The ruling planet is Mercury, the “messenger” with associations to the Gods. Astral energy is strong with planet Mercury and people with a strong Mercury placement excel at communication. All aspects of self-expression, communication, and the exchange of ideas, concepts, knowledge and information will be coming into focus on the 7th.
● Purification is a main theme linked to Virgo’s ruling glyph. You will feel a strong inner pull to purify your mind, body & spirit, and to cleanse your past. Cleanse, clear, alchemize and purify! Virgo is ruled by the 6th house, the astrological house of well-being, health, and daily habits and routines. Keep this in mind.
● One of the least flexible ‘mutable signs,’ apply adaptability into your relationships and career or health goals. The way you communicate with others within close and intimate relationships, and business and professional partnerships can all get a boost. Learn to be more flexible, open-minded and expansive in your attitudes & beliefs; this is a main message of this New Moon...
Practical Action
This is arguably the most action oriented and practical New Moon of the year. There is no greater time than now to get stuff done, create and align with a plan, and apply hard work to see real results. A New Moon in Virgo doesn’t deal with the mystical or subtle-energetic aspects of life, but it does provide the energy to persevere, be immensely determined, aim for gold, and look at the physical structures in your life.
Order and organization are two qualities readily available to you. Stay committed to any previous goals and practical visions you’ve energized- find new ways to amplify current projects and ventures... Virgo is very methodological (thank Mercury) therefore your route to success is to apply logic, reason and practical wisdom- everything rooted in the ‘real world’ and physical- for prosperity, new connections, opportunities, etc. If you’re hoping for vastly imaginative and ethereal vibes, wait until the Full Moon in Pisces later this month. Virgo represents the small details.
You have bright prospects, so tune into your inner strength and stamina. If you need to slow down and adjust your focus, don’t be scared of appearing too thoughtful and deliberate. The cosmos has your back! Spontaneity and risk-taking will come to you at other times. Again, focus on duties & responsibilities in your immediate now, the life and path you’ve been working hard towards creating. Earth energy expands in your life and earth energy is stabilizing, grounding, security driven, practical, reliable and nurturing. Nurture your dreams and aspirations through seeing what resources and physical structures are available to you now.
Be Patient... Take Care of Your Health Too
In addition to patience, this Virgo moon provides an opportunity to really take care of your health and well-being. Everything to do with the 6th house comes to light, and this includes the health and well-being routines and regimes you have going on. September is the ideal month to centre and get back into the daily routines that once brought you energy, enthusiasm, and a sense of excitement. Exercise, healthy eating, passion projects, movement, self-care routines, and activities that increase self-worth and self-esteem (Self-love) are paramount leading up to, during and after this New Moon.
For business and finances, be patient, methodological and organized & orderly; then, take the time for healing and mental, emotional, physical and spiritual health. There will be greater opportunities for spiritual alignment and inner harmony later when the Moon is in Pisces, thus be more concerned with your emotional, mental/psychological and physical well-being. Dance, strength, go to the gym or for walks, engage in sports, hike, swim, seek out a personal trainer, begin martial arts classes, or do yoga! Whatever makes you happy. I have said this once before on a previous Virgo moon, but do be conscious of the element of joy. Activities that genuinely interest you are much better for your holistic health than a monotonous routine that only bores you!
What lights up your soul whilst increasing blood and chi flow....? What expands passion and vitality within while strengthening your immune system? Find your highest joy and flow with it. All of your physical systems will benefit from physical movement and your higher self and inner
spirit will simultaneously soar. Try to stay clear of the boring tasks and routines that bring you down, anything that makes you feel “heavy” and low emotionally is not worth it. If it’s going to stress you out or cause anxiety, it’s counterproductive to your well-being.
A further note: due to Virgo’s strong connection with physical well-being and vitality, nutrition may be on your mind. If you’re looking for a new career path or simply want a new hobby, take an online course or masterclass in herbal medicine, nutrition, or the benefits of a plant-based diet. We’ve entered a New Age of Aquarius meaning there are big changes and shifts occurring. Virgo strengthens your inner compassion and sincere caring for others- perhaps vegan or vegetarian nutrition is the next step for you?!
Your wealth is in your health! And, you’re interconnected with Gaia, the spirit of the earth, and the collective consciousness energy field.... Individual and planetary consciousness are merging.✧
Powerful Instincts
Finally, don’t underestimate the instinctual aspect of this practical and modest earth sign. Virgo has incredibly strong instincts, they navigate life connected to their senses and with their intuitive voice intact. It may not be as strong or developed as the water signs, however the energies of this New Moon allow you to combine methodology, logic, analysis and keen observation skills with instincts, subtle perception, and inner knowing. Sensual, romantic, caring, empathic and nurturing energies are just as strong on this New Moon as a need for order and stepping up to self-responsibility.
There is one minor downside to this sensitivity. Be very mindful of the need for extreme perfectionism and the need to judge, criticize or critique others. If you do this to yourself, then so be it! It can provide healing and growth is small amounts. But critiquing everyone else will just push them away, or make you appear incredibly ignorant and intolerant. Look to Virgo's opposite sign, Pisces, if you find this taking over your conscious mind. Embrace surrender and your capacity to go with the flow, adapt to external situations and events (including setbacks- or other people’s heart-centred motivations and intentions!) and harmonious teamwork.
Blessings, Cecelia
September Horoscopes
Aries
It’s time to get practical and focus on the small details in your life. Take control and care of your finances, work duties, and all matters related to work and money. It’s Virgo season, a time of practicality and hard-work, and domestic affairs on the home-front. You’ve had a few months of play and, hopefully, passion and romance! Now is the time to get more serious with your long-term vision. Re-energize or meditate on your vision board- become more mindful of daily habits that influence your life, work, and health routines. The more you get your practical affairs in order, the more you’ll feel motivated to develop a strong self-care routine. And, passion and love will increase in your life.... You’re a very expressive and physical person, Aries. Don’t underestimate the power of your libido or platonic passions.
Taurus
There’s a bounce in your step, Taurus, yet you’re feeling mellow and chilled too. When the Sun is in a fellow earth sign, you’re full of laughter and positivity. And this is because you know you must stay optimistic to finish projects, attend to practical affairs, and sort out finances and responsibilities. There’s no need to stress or fear this month- as long as you energize your emotional, psychological and even spiritual health, physical matters will work perfectly. The Full Moon in mystical Pisces can teach you the real meaning of divine timing, perfect timing and divine alignment. Always bring it back to your connection to Self if ever in doubt. The world around you is a reflection and manifestation of what occurs inside, so your thoughts, emotions, beliefs, impressions and subtle currents hold great significance at this time.
Gemini
Be prepared for a restless month. You’re still on a high from Leo season and a summer of love, creativity, and play. You’ve most likely had opportunities for your wild side to come out. So, unless you’ve got a set work schedule or non-flexible commitments, this month will go one of two ways. You can either be utterly spontaneous and take a random trip somewhere, solo or with friends, or you will have to stay home and create your own fun. “Fun” can mean different things... If you’re unable to take a road trip, work on your health and daily routines and habits. Virgo is ruled by the 6th house of work, health and daily routines, thus you can get a steady groove in place if you stay disciplined. Focus, concentration, discipline, motivation and perseverance are your key words!
Cancer
The sun is still shining, so get outside and enjoy it! Summer isn’t over, although you will be feeling a pull towards getting practical affairs in order, just like everyone else. Virgo is not only compatible and harmonious with your energies but also helps you to stay grounded and focused. Make sure your long-term vision, goals and dreams are still aligned to who you are. Anything you wish to manifest, achieve & accomplish can be yours, with hard work. This isn’t the time for mystical fairytale dreams or relying solely on the power of the subtle universe to work in your favor (there’s a Pisces Full Moon for this!). Now is the time to use practical magic, wisdom rooted in past experiences and qualifications and successes, to manifest your bright future.
Leo
Back to reality Leo, and to ground zero. This is a new cycle for you as you’ve just had a birthday season. The Sun is now in practical and responsible Virgo, therefore it’s time to restart, recentre, and realign. You’re still feeling the sensual, playful, and majestic energies from summer, and there’s no reason to disconnect from your wild or primal, romantic and intimacy loving side by any means. You can still allocate sufficient time for romance and love dates! Just be mindful that there is a lot of practical and efficient energy available to get stuff done. Think in terms of abundance, wealth, and professional success and achievement- who do you aspire to be, and what inspires you?! Make use of the small details but don’t play it small, dream big and aim for becoming the best version of yourself.
Virgo
Happy birthday! This is a wonderful month with a down-to-earth and chilled out, yet highly practical and responsible vibe. You’re feeling motivated and mentally capable of going after your biggest and most daring goals and dreams, but you achieve it with grace and effortless style... Don’t be scared of being slightly introverted or magnetic and receptive. Your natural frequency, being a feminine earth sign, will work to your advantage all month- and the Full Moon in your opposite sign Pisces gives an extra dose of magic & inspiration. The only things that should be on your mind are the money you make, the way you can provide for your family, and the self-love you show yourself; there’s no time for stress or illusionary worries! Fears are ‘false evidence appearing real,’ time is only ever now. You can learn the meaning of being at One with the divine and the universe through spiritual Pisces, so find ways to connect to your inner spirit on the 20th.
Libra
The universe is sending you subtle messages and cues about what makes your soul sing and what puts you in alignment with your best life. Don’t ignore them! The Virgo sun helps you get in tune with your instincts, which are a powerful force if you know how to trust in your bodily wisdom and senses. Ruled by Venus, you’re one of the most balanced signs and this is because you’re masculine in nature (air) whilst also being feminine (your ruling planet). This is a feminine energy month, therefore you’d be best off connecting to the Venus influence in your life. This means music, art, sensuality, imaginative self-expression, introspection, practicing inner peace, and gentle movement and meditation activities. Once you’ve found your inner sanctum, turn your attention towards your duties, responsibilities, finances and domestic life. Aim for self-mastery.
Scorpio
You’re not one to shy away from a challenge, but (un)fortunately (the paradox!) life will be easy and blissful this month. Virgo is deeply compatible and considered a soulmate in astrology. This influence has you finding many moments of intimacy and authentic connections with loved ones. Imaginative, artistic, and creative inspiration comes effortlessly to you, and you’re basically a money magnet. New opportunities and connections are all around- all you have to do is take sufficient time for focus and stay motivated. Explore your desires for money, fame, success, abundance or social recognition, as these can be energized and integrated in a way that is in alignment with your soul. Don’t worry about other people’s judgements or distorted perceptions, do you! You have enough people who see you and love the being you are.
Sagittarius
Transform your restlessness into positive energy and motivational activities straight away. Virgo’s energy provides an opening for financial abundance, professional expansion, and real progress on the work and health front. Yet, it can also make you restless and impatient. There are jewels of wisdom in the shadows, so try to see the beauty and lesson in the things that trigger you. You strongly dislike small details- you prefer to see the bigger picture and ‘vision.’ But life has many frequencies, many vibrations and energetic currents that apply in different moments. Lots of self-discovery and personal growth is available now, and the feminine energy that resides over September may help you to see where you have been too masculine, boastful, or aggressive in the past, if you should let it. Are you open to healing and change...? If you require solace, use the Pisces Full Moon as a safety net. Pisces is the dreamer and visionary who shares in your creative passions!
Capricorn
Get back into your steady and foolproof groove. If anyone knows how to work hard and stay focused and disciplined, it’s you. This month is all about practical and professional accomplishments for you. Regardless of what’s going on in the world around you, stay aligned and committed to your personal path and goals. You’ll find a beautiful blend of practical and duty-focused energy and visionary vibes this month. The Sun’s in earth sign Virgo while the Full Moon on the 20th occurs in water sign Pisces, and they’re opposites! This means perfect balance and harmony is in order. Seek perfection in all you do, however make sure you recognize the dualistic (yet complimentary) forces needed for real manifestation, creation, and success. Balance duty with adaptability, practicality with spirituality, effort, and determination with going with the flow, and resourcefulness with surrender.
Aquarius
You’re still on a high, Aquarius, and you won’t be wanting to come down any time soon. To save yourself the pain and boredom of restlessness, something you despise, learn to adapt to the earthy and grounded energies of the month. Adaptability and surrender are your keys this September. Embody a disciplined and thoughtful mindset, use your mental powers and intellectual and logical gifts to find centeredness and stability for practical goals. Financial prosperity and windfalls of abundance can come to you, effortlessly, if you know how to work hard and stay the course. Lose distractions, but don’t deny yourself simple pleasures. If you want to sing, dance, make love, play, paint, be creative, or let your inner wild wo/man shine for a bit, allow it. Self-expression will never leave your life... This month is all about recognizing when you need to focus and when it’s ok to give into freedoms.
Pisces
Prepare to be wooed and spoiled! This may be rare for you, sweet soul, especially seeing as you’re always the one giving, sacrificing, and healing or helping others. While the Sun is in Virgo you will be learning the true meaning of balance, of giving and receiving. Be open to the love, gifts, kindness, compliments and affections people want to give you. You’ve most likely spent the first half of 2021 engaged in deep self-care and soul alignment- you’ve also been working on your capacity for embodying spiritual and psychic gifts, including your natural vibration of being the healer. Now is the time to be grounded and seek harmony. Let yourself experience vulnerability and sensitivity, even if it feels uncomfortable at first. Passion, intimacy, romance, friendships, work projects, spirituality, and health & fitness are all key themes for you this September... Virgo season provides an opportunity for true love within and around.
General astrology of September 2021
1. It’s Virgo season, coupled with New Moon in Virgo (7th). The key themes to be mindful of and seek integration are: discipline, duty, responsibility, practical affairs, domestic life, friendships & family, health & fitness, daily routines, work, service, helpfulness, and feminine qualities (empathy, kindness, emotional wisdom, caring, generosity, instincts and sensitivity).
2. The Full Moon is happening in Pisces (20th), the most spiritual and evolved sign. Tap into your unlimited source of inspiration and creativity, artistic and imaginative gifts are amplified, as are musical and poetic talents. Intuition, clairvoyance, divine connection, soul resonance and alignment, and compassion are also available to you.
Blessings, Cecelia
FULL Moon in AQUARIUS:
A Deeper Awakening; Soul Service
✧
FULL MOON in Aquarius
August 22nd 2021
✧
This is an interesting Full Moon, and this is because July saw a Full Moon in Aquarius too. Two significant lunar cycles in the same sign mean there is an extra dose of magic, and that the associated qualities and characteristics (of the star sign) can be tuned into with great effects. You can read up on last month’s Full Moon to get a firmer understanding, or foundation, of the key themes coming up.
Key things to know:-
● Uranus, Aquarius’ planetary ruler, symbolizes innovation, new inventions, change and sudden transformation. Uranus is the planet associated with revolution, and with this comes conscious evolution. You will be thinking about personal changes you can make to contribute to a better, greener, more ecological, and more compassionate world. And, what humanity is doing on a larger scale in terms of new inventions in technology, science, healing and medicine, and other fields.
● Aquarius rules the 11th astrological house of friendships, networks, groups and organizations, and hopes and dreams. Community ties and values will be coming into full focus.
● This Full Moon occurs on the cusp of Pisces- some astrologers may even suggest this is a Full Moon in Pisces! It’s useful to be aware of this as the positive blend of Aquarius-Pisces energies is beautiful…
Pisces qualities
Expanding on everything covered from July’s Full Moon in Aquarius, this one is happening on the cusp of Pisces. Pisces is the most spiritual and mystical sign, least to mention compassionate and gifted. Pisces is gifted psychically, clairvoyantly, intuitively and sensitively- they can pick up on subtle information and hidden vibrations. They’re also incredibly talented in the realms of music, art, creativity and the imagination.
As the 12th sign, they are the most evolved people of the Zodiac and also known as the ‘old souls.’ So, this Full Moon in Aquarius-cusp Pisces brings to light all of the Pisces qualities within. You can draw on the Pisces spirit and strength to add a steamy mix of qualities into the equation. Aquarius and Pisces are right next to each other, which means the Aquarius strengths can “supercharge” the Pisces ones, and vice versa!
Let’s explore what this means for you:-
● When seeking to create stronger foundations rooted in community and collective activities, do so with compassion and empathy in mind. There is a vast capacity for empathy and compassion on the highest of levels, something angelic and selfless even. Pisces’ influence will help you find unconditional love and universal compassion and then apply it into your visions and dreams.
● When connected to your powerful analytical, perceptive and observational skills (Aquarius), combine intuition and an awareness of subtle and spiritual energy. Aquarius’ energy is highly intellectual and logical while Pisces brings the vibration of unexplainable instincts and intuitive knowledge. Pisces can see beyond the veil of illusion, they can sense and receive hidden knowledge, wisdom and information- about everything. You can use this to help in your imaginative, creative, educational, professional, or inventive endeavours.
● Pisces adds a very significant aspect of emotional intelligence, empathy, and heightened emotional wisdom. Self-awareness and the ability to know others on a deeper level, through emotional and spiritual connection, is available to you in abundance. Aquarius perceives things with a sharp and quick-witted mind. They are bright, wise, mentally gifted and deeply insightful. Pisces is equally insightful, but with an extra dimension of depth and sensitivity. Use this to your advantage.
Service and alignment with your “Mission”
Do you have a mission in life? A deeper, soul-tingling, and resonant calling that you know you can’t escape or hide from? This Full Moon guides you into your true service and path. It actually pushes you in an organic way, in a way that makes it impossible for you to deny, reject, or put off! Over the period of our lifetimes we are all given messages and signs at key times showing us who we are, what we should be doing, and what we need to let go of and release.
Release is a key theme of this moon. We heal through letting go of our past versions of ourselves, things that we’ve outgrown from. However, we don’t do this solely through looking back at our past and seeking release (we may do this on a Pisces Full Moon!). When the moon is in Aquarius on the cusp of Pisces, it’s all about looking to the future. Healing is different for everyone and hopefully, by now, you will know what works for you. Maybe you’re the type of person who needs to go for a long run or dance session to heal and release stress, then sit with some healthy and nutritious food and unwind with a comedy?!
Or, you might be someone who prefers to create a sacred space, get out your tarot cards and crystals, and put on some tibeta singing bowls and chimes or other types of sound healing music. Or you could use sex, love-making or primal passion, with your lover as a way to heal! I personally like to aim for balance, with “mind, body & spirit” in mind… Do what works for you, yet do try to incorporate a healthy and balanced mix of energies.
As long as you’ve got the mantra or self-affirmation ‘release your past to heal and create your future’ in mind, you will be fine. It would be helpful for you to explore the 11th and 12th houses in astrology better as well, as this will assist in comprehending the transition and link from and between Aquarius and Pisces. Aquarius is a visionary and dreamer… Pisces is a mystic and dreamer.
Fertility, Projects, and Romance
New romance, new light, a new career, and new projects, this Full Moon represents everything new and the positive changes you can make in your life. Traditionally a time of completion, fresh starts are available to you, additionally. Fulfillment leads to new beginnings and the completion of previous projects or cycles aids in future manifestation. You will find yourself wanting to start new projects, seek out new clients, and be open to new relationships. Like with July’s Full Moon in Aquarius, trust your gut! Listen to your instincts and make sure your higher self is up to par, so you can receive important guidance and insight into next steps.
This moon teaches the incredible importance of being in tune with our higher selves and thus our intuition on a practical level. Although Aquarius is the air sign most connected to water (it’s symbol is the ‘Water-bearer’), Aquarius is a very practical and grounded sign. They’re not wishy-washy or overly dreamy and spaced out, like some water signs when acting from their shadow personality.
Aquarius is a practical dreamer which allows you to be one too! Emotions will be running high, senses will be heightened, and instincts and inner feelings will certainly be amplified. Yet you can use the strong cerebral, analytical, and intelligent currents to not only stay clear of drama and tension, but to also achieve success. This is a very positive full moon with nothing to fear.
Blessings, Cecelia
New Moon in Leo
Boldness, Courage and Seeking the Spotlight

NEW MOON in LEO
August 8th, 2021
✧
This is the most fiery and dramatic New Moon of the month. We’re all feeling the need to shine and be seen, although it’s not just a need; it’s a burning desire! Leo is the sign of passion, creativity, intensity, and self-expression, but this sign also represents the ego, self-centeredness, and dominance. There are dos and don’ts for this New Moon, so read on to find out more. As a Fixed sign, check out what planets (in your natal chart) fall in Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius. This is your key to self-mastery this month.
Key qualities of Leo: -
● Leo rules the 5th house of creativity, children, play, drama, and the Arts. You will find yourself wanting to express yourself boldly and brilliantly- you will certainly be wanting the limelight! Drama, tantrums, temperaments, and theatrics are all common, yet so is the ability to truly shine. Show off and share your talents, artistic gifts, and unique abilities because this Leo moon calls for glitz and glamour.
● Ruled by the Sun, Leo is both the sign of the ego and the heart. Leos have humongous hearts, they’re selfless and devoted and extremely generous, kind and giving. They’re benevolent, sincere, and protective of loved ones. They’re also egotistical, overpowering, attention-seeking and bullyish. So, take this as you will… Inner strength is available for access, and how you channel it is up to you.
● Other key qualities include being loyal, passionate, unconditional loving, romantic, expressive, playful, ambitious, affectionate, determined, hard-working and self-initiating (they are natural leaders).
Imagine, Create, Express
It’s time to be bold and let your creativity out to play. Everything associated with the 5th house is lit up during this New Moon. Musical, artistic, imaginative, and creative expression are all ways to access your own intuition, personal power, and multi-talented nature. And, to connect with like-minded souls in your community or tribe! Seek out positive expressions of drama. This means no theatrics, dramatic outbursts, or egotistical displays of domination or arrogance. This is the shadow side of Leo which can come to light.
The best way to make sure the positive aspects of the Leo personality influence your life is to take some time for meditation and self-alignment. Transform selfishness into positive self-centeredness, the art of being centered with healthy boundaries and high self-esteem. Balancing your inner yin (coolness, calmness, peace) with yang (fire, action, dominance) is ideal. There’s a tendency to be so fiery and egocentric that we may unconsciously alienate others or create chaos.
Gentle healing activities like movement, self-expressive dance, yoga, martial arts, meditation and imaginative pathways to the self-do a number of great things. Firstly, they allow you to cool down and embody grace and charm- any healing is a step towards wholeness and harmony. Secondly, they help to ease stress, release tension, and increase positivity within. Energetic channels and pathways open so you can let energy flow, there’s considerable release and transformation involved in dance, movement, mediation, etc.
Take to the Stage
This is literally the time to take to the stage, to be brave and fearless and take your poetry book or guitar on a stage and perform. Performance, speaking, teaching, inspiring through creativity and art, and entertaining others all come under the 5th house. Leo’s energy makes us drawn to the limelight in a magnetic and electric way. There’s both an unexplainable magnetic pull and an electric buzz!
Connect with kindred spirits and people with similar interests and passions. Rekindle a project or start a new highly charged venture with someone you trust, energetically as well as physically. Shared projects favor strongly while joining forces with other inspired and inspirational people are ways to win in life, feel good about yourself, and create abundance and new opportunities for the future. Essentially, be like a lion, bold and courageous with a desire for self-preservation.
Don’t Give In...
Don’t give into lethargy and laziness either. The dual aspect of lions (Leo’s ruling glyph and spirit animal) is that they can happily spend their days lazing around in the sun. Moving for occasional play and food is great, but there’s so much more available for you. Life force, zest, vitality, optimism and a perpetual flow of energy are effortlessly accessible. Money, work, personal, health, and relationship goals and projects can all be energized, and this really is one of the most energetic months of the year. (It’s Leo season as well as a New Moon in Leo.)
Speaking of taking charge and living up to your fullest potential, are there any childhood wounds you’ve left to heal? A New Moon in Leo is the ideal time to heal yourself through action and self-expression. This isn’t like a New Moon in Cancer or Pisces, for example, where you can heal emotional and psychological wounds and pain through introspection and spirituality. Leo is bold, fiery and independent, they take action and “do.” Use your mind, body and spirit to move, let go, heal, energize, understand and release. Play with your senses! Let yourself explore your entire being, from your past to present self, and your future self.
There are many routes back to happiness and health… joy is one of the fastest. Also, consider doing laughter yoga or connecting with children. Anything that lets your inner child roam free leads to victory.
Social Grace and Charm
Finally, just so there’s no confusion as to how much drama and ego displays, we’re bound to see leading up to and after the New Moon in Leo, amp up your personal charm and social grace levels. If you’re not feeling going completely wild and dressing in colors and a free-spirited, bohemian, type of way, aim for class and sophistication. Dress classy, be savvy, and stay cultured. This will naturally align your mind to a specific vibration. We’re more likely to speak mindfully and behave accordingly when we create our physical appearance to a certain ‘standard.’
Anyway, just look at the majestic lions in their natural habitat; they glisten and glow like gold, yet they know their roar can intimidate and frighten beyond belief. To their kin, they are loving, affectionate and playful and seek to create harmony, not destroy. Strive for this.
Blessings, Cecelia
August Horoscopes
Aries
It’s Leo season, and this means high spirits and harmonious energy. You will be focused on the love in your life, or it’s absence! Romance, play, creativity and drama like the Arts are all top things and where your attention is going. You will find joy in the small things, like singing or dancing with friends, attending a yoga or qigong class, or being asked to draw, paint, or sing with someone. Community, friendships, and kindred spirits are on everyone’s minds. Financial flow increases with the more play and well-being activities you feed yourself with too. Abundance can come to you when you’re in sync with your heart and inner spirit, when you’re chasing natural highs and self-expression. Remember the power of your innovative mind and imagination for personal victories.
Taurus
You’re loving the vibrancy of Mother Earth and the magical energies of the Sun, Taurus. When the sun is in fiery and independent Leo, you feel deeply sensual and open to romance. Creativity is expanded through appreciating nature, like listening to the birds and bees, speaking to the trees… you’re aware nature is conscious and sends out subtle vibrations, right? Get in tune with her. Soul resonance arises through organic vibrations this month. New friendships and admirers increase considerably- your light is shining! Personal, professional, romantic, platonic and inspirational relationships can all receive sparks of new energy and vitality, and you will find new connections flowing in abundance. Put yourself out there, transmute or alchemize your sensitivity and usually modest nature into something more social and expressive.
Gemini
All you’ll have on your mind this month is fun and adventure, so there’s no point trying to do anything else. Practical matters will have to wait until 22nd when it’s Virgo season. The current astrological season increases spontaneity, vitality, zest, optimism, creativity, playfulness, courage, and your need for sexual expression. Expression in general. Your mind is alive and energized, you’re craving intellectual and upbeat conversation, in addition to companionship and community. Broadening and expanding your horizons is one of your primary goals. You’re seeking connection in everything you do, from every minor action to the company you keep and connections you make- and in both the daily grind and hustle and longer-term plans. Small shifts this month will lead to greater opportunities later… don’t underestimate the power of your communication skills. Curiosity combined with keen intellect and a sharp, brilliant mind is what will create prosperity and bliss for you.
Cancer
You’re feeling loved up and full of light. Leo’s influence is powerful, and you share the same affinity with love, romance and kinship. You’re searching for new soulmates and kindred spirits in everything and everyone! If you’re single, you will surely meet your match; all you have to do is put yourself out there. If coupled you can expect heightened intimacy and steamy passionate encounters. Creativity, imaginative and musical self-expression, and artistic gifts are all taking center stage in your consciousness, next to romance. Use your strong sexual energies to spark higher consciousness and vice versa… Your life force is so strong that you will probably dream up amazing things, creations, and masterpieces. Access your higher self through daily self-care, meditation, healthy diet, exercise and joyful pursuits. Pleasure leads to co-creation, prosperity, and inner contentment.
Leo
It’s your month Leo, the stars shine for you… which you already know, so keep your ego in check! The duality of this month is that you will be glowing and radiating in victory- you’re confident, charming, self-expressive and totally passionate. You’re also extremely generous and warm this month which makes people gravitate towards you. Yet, there’s also an overwhelming tendency towards drama and theatrics, mainly caused by yourself. Or perpetuated when some peace and cooling down is in divine order. Consciously seek to attune to the light parts of your soul and personality, not the dark ones. Align with your multi-talented nature, let your talents and unique gifts flow. You can inspire others whilst feeling total satisfaction and happiness. Don’t hold back, be bold, and hold yourself in high esteem.
Virgo
You will be having fun this month and connecting with people from your past. New friends and opportunities come into your life while old ones show their faces- embrace it all. It’s a very joyous and positive cycle with lots of laughter, high spirits, and zest. It’s essential that you take care of your health because when the sun enters your own sign on the 22nd, you will want to be in a calm and steady groove. Well-being activities such as yoga, martial arts, dance, self-care, meditation, time in nature, and spiritual healing- holistic therapies and the like- are ideal things to put your time into. Expansive and healing energy lights up the sky, which is perfect for your small detail, analytical, and often narrow-minded nature. Embrace the desire for growth and being part of a larger community.
Libra
Leo’s dominant and vibrant, if somewhat (extremely!) dramatic and egotistical energies are amping up your need for self-expression. You’ll be wanting to share your views and ideas with the rest of the world, and this is what leads to new opportunities, connections, and abundance. Financial windfalls are available when you speak your truth and do it with empathy and compassion. People are responding to vibes and energy this month, so clear your sacral and throat chakras and embody love and light! Musical, artistic, and creative expression are strong, you may find yourself organically involved in a new project based on some special skill set of yours. Don’t close yourself to anything… be open-minded. Finally, take a moment to reflect on your past and who you may need to clear some karmic cords with. Are you still holding onto wrongdoings from years ago?
Scorpio
It’s an intense month but one you dig! Intensity and passion are Leo’s middle names, so when you combine and balance these with your amazing intuition, killer instincts, and natural empathic-watery-caring, you will be shining free for all to see. Find solace in the few relationships that serve a higher purpose, the ones that really get you. And, your artistic and imaginative gifts will be off the chain! People will recognize your wisdom and talents. Be bold and courageous however steer clear of excessive spotlight-seeking- choose a natural vibe instead. Seeking the spotlight and being dramatic may suit fire signs, or others so inclined, but this isn’t your style; stay true to you. Adopt this saying: ‘You do you and I’ma do me!’ This is great because everyone will be craving community and connection whilst simultaneously wanting their own independence.
Sagittarius
Let the good times roll. While the Sun is in fiery, dominant, passionate and willful Leo you will be right in your element. Romance, health, play, creativity, spirituality, passion and adventure are all strong, and you’ll be connecting with LOTS of kindred spirits and friends. You may even be one of the lucky ones blessed to take a travel trip. Keep your mindset sovereign without being too much of a rebel. And, if you’re going to be a total freedom and justice fighting maverick, as we do have a Full Moon in Aquarius, after all; make sure you remain grounded. Give a little, take a little. Do a bit, take a bit. Wisdom, freedom, and justice are on your mind right now and you won’t tolerate BS or illusion. Remember to keep your spiritual health strong and engage in regular self-care, meditation and aura strengthening exercises.
Capricorn
Passion increases and amplifies in your life, and sex, love and intimacy will be on your mind. Embrace your need for fantasy and playfulness, as Leo rules fun, children, creativity, and the Arts. If you’ve got some free time and money, book yourself a festival ticket- be spontaneous too. This isn’t the time to be mega conservative with your self-imposed limits on how much fun you can have; you need joy and excitement to keep your mind, body & spirit healthy. Savings and finances are great, there’s been a few earth-sign practical months already this year, and this dutiful cycle comes round again during Virgo season (August 22nd). Energize the areas of your life you’re lacking in, like fun, play and a deep-seated need for adventure. Pick up a musical instrument or creative hobby once immersed in, but no longer give your all to. Passion and inspiration are everywhere right now… tune into the subtle vibrations of the energetic universe.
Aquarius
Fabulous, truly fabulous! This is a powerful month with love, laughter, and medicine in everything. You will find healing in the simplest of things. Paint, draw, dance, sing, and play musical instruments. Garden, do DIY, cook, get your home in order, and take care of final practical alignments. Go on an adventure, take a nature trek, hike or go to the beach…! There is so much to keep you occupied you won’t be sleeping much, and when you do manage to lay your mind to rest your subconscious mind will be swimming with beautiful memories. Try to balance excitement and passion with calmness and inner peace, however. Family will be on your mind because Leo is deeply community oriented. But, you don’t need to fake anything- if one meeting, get-together or phone call is enough to show your love, do it with gratitude and sincerity. Aim for simplicity to find expansive joy and wonder….
Pisces
It’s another magical month for you, but this time with different energies. Leo’s fiery and highly independent, but passionate and self-expressive nature is putting you in tune with your fierce self-protectiveness and self-assertion. You won’t be tolerating any disrespect, drama, or BS this month. As a sensitive and supremely compassionate water sign, you display this self-love with a unique and admirable type of flair; you’re one of the few people who can say things EXACTLY as they are without offending people. Others want to listen to your wisdom, intuitive guidance, perspectives, beliefs, and personal feelings. They can sense they will be healed and inspired from your natural frequency. Don’t change for anything Pisces, however, do stay adaptable and open to new opportunities and connections. If the world gets too much meander into nature or take your guitar or harmonica and sit among other sensitive animals.
General astrology of August 2021
1. There’s a New Moon in Leo on the 8th, which is perfect for starting a new health or self-care cycle. Daily routines linked to health, well-being and work link to the 5th house, Leo’s astrological domain. Start new things.
2. Then, the Full Moon in Aquarius, 22nd, brings up our need for positive action! Humanitarianism, collective consciousness, world affairs, a connected and unified global society… we’re feeling altruistic and genuinely concerned about the well-being of others and our planet (and animal species). This Full moon equally highlights our analytical and intuitive minds, our ability to think and perceive with innovation, creative genius, and originality.
Many Blessings. Cecelia
Full Moon in Aquarius
Emotional Intelligence, Community & Service
✧
FULL MOON in AQUARIUS
24th July 2021
✧
The Full Moon in Aquarius represents a time of personal change and transitions, and global or collective ones. There is a shift in consciousness available. Just like the ‘Water-Bearer’ who transmutes emotions (water) into higher thought forms and mental gifts (air), we are being guided towards similar abilities. This is the first of a two-month Aquarius Full Moon cycle, so be prepared for sudden changes or unexpected opportunities.
Key qualities of Aquarius: -
● Independent and self-assertive.
● Original, quirky, innovative and inventive.
● Analytical, perceptive, and bright.
● Both logical and intuitive…
● Very intelligent, but emotionally detached and aloof.
● Altruistic and a humanitarian.
Service and pathways to the Higher Self
First and foremost, this Full Moon is about service and aligning with your higher self. Aquarius is an air sign, and this brings hidden or less developed mental aspects to light. If you’re already quite confident in your cerebral powers and are on a professional or creative path that allows you to access a variety of mind associated abilities, now is the perfect time to take an extra leap. Strengthen them even further.
The higher self is also known as the higher mind, and this signifies portals to higher consciousness are available. The focus is on community and the connections you keep that strengthen your sense of mission. Projects will be taking up the majority of your time, and if they’re not you should consciously redirect your energy.
There is much inspiration available over this Full Moon… Zest, excitement and enthusiasm are part of the Aquarius personality set, so you will be feeling motivated and ready to take charge. All aspects of service, helping others (or the planet), charity and humanitarianism will be prominent. This is an excellent cycle if you work for a charity or non-profit, or on a welfare or eco project! If your intentions are pure and honest and you’re striving towards a better world for yourself and others, this is your path at this time. There’s a certain level of freedom and self-sovereignty available in finding your purpose as well. Aim for embodying “lightness,” channel and hold lighter.
Changes, internal shifts & transformation
Ruled by Uranus, the planet of change and transformation in addition to sudden shifts, you have got an opportunity to release, let go and realign. Release what is holding you back, no longer serves a purpose, and is causing more destruction or ill-health than good. This may be a relationship, job, mindset, habit, or anything that keeps you stuck in a negative cycle of existence. Align with what you do want to see in the world. Manifestation powers and the ability to magnetize abundance and bliss to you are amplified.
Uranus is known as the ‘Great Awakener’ and his effects can be catalytic. Evaluate what needs to fade away in your life. Use the gifts of analysis, fine-tuned perception, and a sharp and bright mind to determine truths and information. Remember that Aquarius’ energy is intuitive as well as logical, thus you can use a combination of mental skills for considerable results. Meditate on change and powerful transitions which lead to growth and self-evolution.
Energy healing
Healing is on the horizon! Spirituality, the Healing Arts, wisdom, and revelations relating to quantum physics, holistic well-being, alternative medicine, subtle energy and new inventions combining spirit and science; all of these falls under this Full Moon. Start or reestablish your healing practice. Wake up at a specific time to meditate, do yoga, engage in some gentle martial arts like chi kung (qigong) or aikido, and set some intentions over a glass of lemon water or herbal tea.
Cleaning out your system now whilst merging spiritual practices is the ideal way. Your physical body is one route to health, yet we are mind, body & spirit. An Aquarius Full Moon urges you to elevate your consciousness through well-being practices. Spirit connection. If you have been looking to get into a new professional pathway, think about enrolling in an online course or diploma. Any of the following fields are totally perfect now: Astrology, metaphysics, Reiki, holistic and alternative therapies, relationship counselling, hypnosis, numerology, and anything esoteric or holistic minded.
Aquarius is a revolutionary at heart, so there are many principles you can tune into for self-alignment and personal evolution. Thinking outside the box and getting your innovative,
inventive and genius hat on enables you to find better ways to do things within the relationships and structures in your life. Rigid thinking can be overcome and transcended into open-mindedness, expansiveness, and vision. Idealism is strong. Break free from old habits, intend freedom, and shift internally towards inspiration.
Be Mindful of Emotional Aloofness
Due to the nature of wishing to shift emotions and feelings into higher realms of mind and consciousness, it may be easy to fall into the shadow side of Aquarius through repression instead of transmutation. In your desire for raising up the emotional-watery energies you may unconsciously suppress or restrict your own capacity for feeling. This can be helped with artistic and imaginative expression, musical activities such as listening to, dancing to, or playing music, and movement that allows you to release and heal emotions.
Seek out conscious connections that will help to introduce you to new and exciting pathways of community. Surrounding yourself with a few close bonds that provide a shared feeling of resonance, of brotherhood or sisterhood, instantly aligns you with a level of emotional familiarity. This then provides the confidence and clarity you need for success, in whatever you put your mind to!
Many Blessings, Cecelia
New Moon in CANCER:
Intimacy, New Projects & Nurturing Dreams
✧
NEW MOON in Cancer
July 10th 2021: 9:16 pm EST
✧
July’s New Moon occurs in the nurturer and caregiver of the Zodiac, Cancer. But Cancer is not all compassion and unconditional love (although they are one of the most loyal, loving and devoted signs!). Cancer ‘the Crab’ is also amazingly gifted in the artistic, imaginative, and creative realms… This sensitive star sign is a cardinal sign, meaning they possess considerable power and initiatory force to make change. Combined with extraordinary psychic and intuitive abilities, a well advanced imagination, and a genuine desire to heal and care for others through their evolved emotional intelligence, this New Moon has many significant themes.
Remember that new and full moons influence us the most based on the planets that fall in four signs. As this moon happens in cardinal Cancer, look up your birth chart to see which planets you have in Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn. This is what will be brought to light for you.
Cancer Key qualities:-
● Caring, nurturing, supportive and protective.
● Emotionally intelligent, wise and self-aware.
● Intuitive with deep instincts- plus connected to subconscious forces.
● Imaginative, creative and artistically talented.
● Psychic, clairvoyant and in tune with dreams.
● Passionate, intense, self-expressive and family-oriented.
Intimacy in relationships
First and foremost, this New Moon is all about the intimate and personal relationships in our lives. We’re feeling a deeper pull towards intimacy, authenticity and honesty in our close bonds. If there have previously been imbalance or distortions we’re wanting to heal, find wholeness and clear them up at this time. Cancer is ruled by the 4th house of home, roots, physical foundations relating to security and emotional stability, and the mother. The mother can be both your own mother and the role she’s played in your life, or the mother as an archetype- maternal instincts, in other words. Ruled by the Moon, Cancer is deeply instinctive, emotional, intuitive, psychic, clairvoyant, and feeling based. The Moon rules the realm of inner currents, moods, emotions and so forth.
So, take some time for introspection and ‘yin’ activities to align with your soul self. In a chaotic and often illusion-ridden society, there is a lot of confusion and distortion, delusion and false beliefs & perceptions. We become unconsciously and unknowing tied to faulty belief systems and the karmic and ancestral wounds and trauma of our pasts. Family upbringing too. We must therefore unravel the mysteries and illusions to get to the root of truth, to the core and essence. This is our souls closely linked to our psyches.
It’s true, the psychological, emotional, physical and spiritual planes are equally as important in daily life (and in the grand scheme of things); we are human beings having a spiritual experience, or spiritual creatures having a human experience! Yet, the soul is the core that lies beneath and beyond all of these other “bodies,” these layers of existence. When was the last time you slowed down and disconnected from social media, the media, or the storytelling narrative from others? Go within to go without. Listen to your soul, psyche and innermost self. You can do this by…
Strengthening intuition and psychic & intuitive gifts
Strengthen your intuition and psychic gifts which are ‘muscles’ in their own right. There are many ways you can do this, like:-
● Through meditation, crystal healing, yoga and martial arts (the latter two increase energy and chi flow leading to psychic development and awareness).
● Practicing healthy self-care and self-love. Nurture your body, mind & spirit. Treat yourself with loving kindness and use the tools of aromatherapy, sound therapy, and self-healing to move trapped energy (and thus consciousness) for flow and alignment.
● Using binaural beats and isochronic tones to stimulate clairvoyant and intuitive gifts, through the effect they have on brainwave activity.
● Doing a conscious fast or detox. Fasting for spiritual purposes has a range of beneficial effects with the main one being activating consciousness and dormant DNA. ‘Cleanse,’ ‘detox,’ and ‘purify...’
● Taking a ‘Healing Art’ course, workshop or online masterclass. Energy healing and holistic therapy is a great way to strengthen your psychic muscle, so consider looking into local Reiki Masters, shamanic practitioners, or sound therapists/practitioners.
Creativity and the imagination
Of course, Cancer rules the imagination and the subconscious mind which implies there will be access to universal archetypes and hidden memories at this time. Firstly, use the energies of this lunar cycle to expand and develop creative projects. Whether they’re professional or personal, birthed from some visionary or bigger purpose intention or something that helps to pay your bills while expanding your creativity, you can pick up on projects once forgotten. Projects that may have taken a backburner months or years ago can be restarted, and you will see significant progress. Sparks of inspiration and creative genius come to you under the light of the Cancer New Moon, so make the most of it. Don’t waste this magical portal to higher conscious insight, awareness, consciousness and self-realization.
And, your imagination will be off the chain. Practice your musical skills with your chosen instrument; strengthen your voice through singing or doing OM chanting; draw, paint, make art or engage in photography for pleasure and inspiration; express yourself as freely and innocently as your inner child would want you to. Cancer is linked to our inner childs due to the connection to roots and family. Childhood memories can assist you in regaining access to the hidden aspects of yourself, purely in terms of creativity and the imagination, thus get out old pictures or diaries for a memory rejog. This sensitive and nostalgic water sign also has strengths of sentimentality and evolved emotional intelligence. You can use empathy and emotional wisdom to guide you in any artistic project or creative outlet you may be feeling inspired to pursue.
Dreams… instincts…. Deeper realms
Finally, you can use this moon to explore your more mystical and spiritual side. Dreams come under the Cancer sign, and dreams are a portal or gateway to your subconscious mind and self and deeper levels of your psyche. Conscious dreamers actively engage in astral travel and projection, lucid dreaming, and other advanced dream techniques such as is seen in shamanic dreaming to receive wisdom and guidance through the dream worlds. Instincts become more powerful through working with your dreams, as does your intuition and ability to perceive subtle energy.
Remember that Cancer is a yin, emotional and feminine sign. Well, feminine wisdom is powerful! Tune into the unlimited potential of the “unseen,” “invisible,” and “extrasensory” realms and dimensions. There is much more than the solely physical reality we often reside in.
Many Blessings. Cecelia
Aries
July starts off with the Moon in your own sign, Aries, for 3 days. Use this portal wisely! The Sun is in Cancer until the 22nd and there’s also a New Moon in Cancer on the 10th. Cancer is considered your “enemy” in astrology terms, so be mindful of your emotions and vulnerabilities this month. Cancer’s energy makes us all feel more sensitive, sentimental, and in touch with our home and family life- our ‘roots’ and need for security. But does this conflict with your warrior-like, self-leading stance? You can use Cancer season for powerful self-reflection and to re-align and adjust. Spend time in contemplation, rest and meditation reminding yourself of your soul. Your soul is the focal point, and it is from here where sparks of wisdom into your passions, purpose, past, future, talents and true self lie and originate. After the 22nd the Sun is in compatible and fiery Leo, and there’s a Full Moon in harmonious Aquarius (24th). Feel free to shine.
Taurus
Cancer season is taking over our lives until the 22nd. Taurus and Cancer measure high up on the compatibility scale, so this is a wonderful month for love, romance, and getting clear on your goals and soulful dreams. Ruled by the Moon, Cancer’s energies allow you to access your subconscious mind and your imagination. What can you create this July, Taurus? Make sure you take time to meditate and align with your Higher Self, the seat of your soul, inner spirit, and “vision.” There is a practical magic and wisdom available this month, therefore tap into the infinite and unlimited source of potential and possibilities the universe has to offer. Connect with nature, the great Mother (earth), to help harmonize your mind and emotions with your body and spirit… Nature and a return to simplicity will rejuvenate your senses, alleviate any low moods or pessimistic mindsets, and restore confidence in your own abilities.
Gemini
Gemini, it’s a mellow but equally blissful month for you. You have settled into a balanced and harmonious groove, and Cancer season shifts your focus towards home, family life, and introspective activities. You should consider pouring any and all spare time into a creative and artistic project. Get your imaginative juices flowing! The Sun in Cancer hi-lights your need for security and close bonds, but it is also making you pay more attention to your dreams and the subconscious messages contained. Do you possess a dream journal? Now is a great time to start one. Work, finances and personal passion or creative projects can reach a wonderful synergy with the emotional and psychosocial connections you crave on the home front. Use the watery-empathic, magnetic and feminine energy available to you to energize and amplify projects, goals, and aspirations… Listen to your intuition too.
Cancer
This is the best month of the year for you, Cancer. When the Sun is in your own sign you feel dreamier and freer to be yourself. Your spiritual gifts, empathy, and psychic abilities are off the chain! There is a lightness in your step and demeanour without compromising on your deep, emotionally sensitive, and beautifully soulful nature. Art, creativity, and imaginative self-expression favour strongly for you, as do taking care of your physical health and body. Your physical body is a vessel, it’s a channel for divinity to flow through- and you know this better than most people. Tune into the ethereal ad mystical realms where subconscious insights are rich. Universal archetypes, genius ideas, brilliant revelations, and key insights into your future and soul’s plan can come to you know. Thank Lunar, the Moon, and place an amethyst crystal under your pillow at night to enhance dreaming. “Practical magic” is your buzzword this month.
Leo
Cancer season is energizing your home and family life, Leo. If you have children or you’re a primary or dual provider, expect to be very busy! Your secret to satisfaction this month is to treat life like a game, as if you’ve chosen to be so busy with errands, practical duties and providing for others. Try to stay present and mindful so you don’t let negativity or bad energy in- there are jewels and gems even in the most mundane tasks. So, either see your business as a perpetual get fit challenge, a way to be healthy and get your blood flowing or turn inwards. Cancer is one of the most reflective, introspective, and dreamy signs. Cancer is ruled by the planet of feelings and emotions, ‘roots’ and our need for security, and the subconscious mind: the Moon. Tackle daily chores with a sentimental and gentle approach, if you can. Be considerate and know that sensitivities are heightened… This is a great window for healing, self-evolution, and personal growth specifically with regards to emotional intelligence and the way you handle the hard or stressful times. If you’re retired or living life in bliss, reflect on your past. Appreciate friends & family and send gratitude out into the ether, into the universe.
Virgo
You might be quite busy this month, yet you’re also feeling very in control of yourself and your life. This is a good month for you overall, Cancer’s energies are helping you to feel stress-free and more appreciative of friends and family. Cancer rules the 4th house of home, roots, security, family and emotions & feelings, your inner world. The Moon is Cancer’s ruling planet, and this is providing an opportunity to connect with your imaginative and subconscious self. Dreams, introspection, reading, movies, light house work, gardening, and activities that bring you a “mellow joy” and peace simultaneously are all favoured. What excites your soul while calming you at the same time? Focus on this and do more of it!
Libra
Dare to dream, Libra…? Cancer isn’t generally too compatible with you, however one thing you can appreciate is this sensitive and empathic water sign’s love of imagination and creativity. Cancer is a nurture and caregiver yet is also a creative genius with many artistic and imaginative gifts. Tune into these collective themes this month. Also, make the most of the laid-back and dreamy vibes- energize your long-term goals & plans projects and business model. Seek to strengthen your career or 7 year plan, or add a touch of magnetism and feminine energy to your professional pursuits. One other thing you can certainly draw from Cancer’s influence is their supremely compassionate, empathic, and psychically gifted nature. Feminine energy is receptive and gentle and this is naturally in synergy with your own peace loving ways. So long as you can focus and direct your energy, you should have a blissful and productive month. Use the Aquarius Full Moon to take passion projects to the next level.
Scorpio
Wow, what a month Scorpio. You’re feeling centred, reflective, dreamy, incredibly intuitive and spiritual. All of your senses, gifts, and soul talents are heightened and you’re embodying a fine balance of going with the flow and chasing your dreams. There is a green light from the universe to share your beliefs and viewpoints, wisdom and knowledge with others, and to access the full potential of the unique musical, artistic and spiritual abilities you secretly possess. Cancer rules everything internal, hidden feelings, emotions, the unseen realms, the subconscious mind and the imagination… and you’re naturally compatible! This means your best and most brilliant qualities are brought to light. You may find your resources getting an amp, or you could very well receive an expected windfall, sufficient gift of money or jewels, or a top end high paying new client. Self-esteem is high while your inner light & divinity is shining. Find a balance between wanting to show your gifts and wisdom to the world and keeping some to yourself. Cancer is a feminine and introspective sign, after all…
Sagittarius
This is a month to lay low and focus on close relationships. Cancer rules the 4th house, the astrological house of home, ‘roots’ and physical foundations relating to security, and your needs for comfort and emotional connection. You tend to be superficial Sag, and this is due to being so carefree, restless, and free-spirited. Channelling your energy into multiple projects (and relationships?!) leaves you lacking the depth and sincerity often needed in life. Use July’s cosmic themes to work on healing your past. Introspection is called for, you can reflect on your childhood and emotional issues left unresolved. Get out your dream diary or start to work more closely and consciously with your dreams. There is a sweet, sensual, spiritual soulful and subtle energy available to you, which can transform your life in many powerful ways… Learn from your water sign friends- Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces; reflect on their words, energy & essence, actions and life choices to shine a light onto what you need to be embodying more of. Balance and integration can be found.
Capricorn
It’s Cancer season, your ‘opposite’ sign in astrology and therefore the sign you should be aiming to find most balance with. Cancer is spiritual, extremely compassionate, intuitive and instinctive. They’re psychically and imaginatively gifted and are equally known as the “empaths” of the Zodiac. Get in tune with your emotions this month. Look towards your past- your childhood and upbringing and seek to resolve any lingering wounds or insecurities surrounding home and your mother. Once you’ve done this, channel all of your energy into work and creative projects as there’s a lot of “practical magic” and ethereal, esoteric and spiritual wisdom in the air… do you feel balanced? Check in on your mind, body, spirit, emotions and soul because you are a holistic being. This is more of a month to do what you enjoy and brings your excitement and passion levels up, and to realign and introspect. Redirect your focus towards your spirit and long-term soulful aspirations. You will find emotional and psychological satisfaction here.
Aquarius
Until the 22nd, you may want to do one of two things. Either lay low and find ways to enjoy your own company: garden, tend to domestic and daily chores, express yourself through music and art, or meditate and go within. Or surround yourself with what you know, with people and friends who already see and get you. Cancer season is amplifying your need for security and connection, including protection, to the max! Friends and loved ones who make you laugh and who you’re already totally comfortable around can be a safe haven for you. But if it’s a choice between ‘the new’ and going solo, choose yourself. Cancer is ruled by the Moon, the planet of emotions, inner feelings and the subconscious mind, and by the 4th house- the house of family and our needs for security and belonging. You may be feeling surprisingly sensitive all month! Yet, Cancer is incredibly creative and imaginative, so there is a doorway of potential awaiting you. Everything becomes clearer from the 22nd.
Pisces
Cancer season brings a beautiful synergy and harmony into your love, personal, career and spiritual life. Cancer is one of your soulmates of the Zodiac, so when the Sun is in this sweet and dreamy sign your God-given gifts soar! You and Cancer share many fabulous traits: intuition, psychic ability and clairvoyance, a profound imagination, creative and artistic genius, unlimited compassion and empathy… Stick with what you know and already comes naturally to you, but also work on strengthening and expanding it. Being ruled by the Moon and the 4th house, this cycle puts you in touch with your emotional and spiritual needs, your own “inner mother” and caregiver, provider, or protector. And, you’re seeking security and familiarity- even within a need for excitement and adventure. The world is one with you Pisces, therefore don’t let childhood fears or insecurities diminish your light. There is nothing to fear when living from your heart and Higher Self; whether you choose to stay closer to home or venture out, be the magical, intuitive, and unconditionally loving mermaid or merman that you are. Abundance and blessings are on their way.
General Astrology for July:
l. It’s Cancer season with a New Moon in Cancer on the 10th. Cosmic themes: home and security, roots, self-protection, imaginative self-expression, spiritual and psychic gifts, tapping into our instincts and intuition, and issues surrounding childhood and the mother. Lunar’s energy can help you for healing from the past and creating and envisioning a bright future, as Cancer is ruled by the Moon.
2. The Full Moon in Aquarius on the 24th is great for anyone with some spice and zest in their step. Aquarius is a humanitarian, dreamer, visionary, idealist and wise intuitive all in one. Find ways to expand your social and professional circle while working on individual gifts and talents. Dream big- don’t play it small or be too concerned with illusions and outdated patterns of thinking. Be a conscious maverick!
Blessings, Cecelia
FULL Moon in CAPRICORN:
Ambition, Prosperity, and Flying High!
✧
FULL MOON in Capricorn
June 24th 2021: time 2:40 pm EDT
✧
This June’s Full Moon occurs in grounded, totally responsible, and success-oriented Capricorn. Capricorn is ruled by the planet Saturn, the planet of structure and duties in the real world also known as the ‘Lord of Karma.’ But this moon isn’t just influenced by Capricorn’s ruling planet. Jupiter plays a large part and Mars, the planet of action, will and passion, has just entered Leo. There is a lot of passion and vitality available to see your goals and aspirations realized.
This lunar cycle is affecting people the most with planets in the cardinal signs, Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn, at 0 to 8 degrees. (So, if you have Libra in Jupiter at 5 degrees you can look up or refamiliarize yourself with the meaning and essence of Libra in Jupiter.)
Capricorn Key qualities: -
● Hard-working, conscientious, and ambitious.
● Practical, responsible, dutiful and high-flying.
● Achievement and success focused.
● Wise, modest, and discerning.
● Sweet, generous, sensitive and kind.
● Creative and artistic in a grounded, down-to-earth, way.
Responsibility and Success
First and foremost, this Full Moon is all about responsibility and accountability, and success and achievement. Capricorn is the highest expression of material and physical success on the earth plane. People with a lot of Capricorn in their natal chart are ambitious, aspirational, motivated and determined individuals who want to achieve fame, success, recognition, prosperity, and the like. While other Full Moons may ask us to get in tune with our emotions or spiritual selves, a Full Moon in Capricorn directs us towards our place in society. Essentially, the message is to take your talents, diplomas and qualifications, experience and expert wisdom, and transform it into something that will bring you a prosperous and happy life.
No matter the motivations, “success” and “achievement” have many positive applications. You may want to chase money or fame to create a better life for your family, to live the dream life on a paradise island, to help charities and animals, or to devote your fortune to helping the planet in some way, or investing it in a business. The key lies in the power of your intentions, and how much work and effort you’re willing to put in. Please don’t get things twisted: this is the perfect time to go all in, to put your serious hat on and to channel your wisdom, passion, and knowledge into a strong foundation. Dream big and reach for the stars...
Emotions VS Ambitions
The Full Moon is also occurring with a direct opposition, the Sun in Cancer. Cancer and Capricorn are opposite each other in the zodiac, and this signifies a call for balance. Not only will you be feeling more ambitious and determined than usual, but you will be wanting greater comfort and security in personal relationships, in your emotional life. Cancer Sun brings the element of “practical magic,” Cancer is mystical, spiritual, psychic, deeply intuitive and imaginative. You can use any extrasensory or psychic-intuitive gifts and your imaginative powers to literally dream your world into being. You can channel the emotional satisfaction and fulfillment you feel in your home, family and personal life into seeing success and accomplishment in your career.
In other words, private and domestic life- including the joys and pleasures you receive on the home front- can be balanced and merged with your social and professional world. Use your emotions and powerful instincts to fuel your creative and professional fire! One of the main benefits of learning about astrology and its inherent wisdom is to find balance and harmony. With a Cancer Sun- Capricorn Moon opposition this is very attainable.
Maturity with self-reflection
Saturn is all about maturity and growing up. Yet, due to the Cancer Sun opposition you will also be feeling a pull towards your childhood and home life, past and current. This is a wonderful window to reflect and look towards your past to help expand and progress your career, and anything else that needs healing or fine-tuning. Cancer is the origin and Capricorn is the goal; family and emotions (Cancer) manifests as maturity and responsibility in other areas, like public life and social standing (Capricorn). Vice versa.
If you are not feeling like energizing and working on your work or career at this time, for whatever reason, you can make the most of the Full Moon by turning your attention to family commitments. Duties and practical wisdom linked to your family and home increase emotional maturity and intelligence. This then in itself helps to ramp up your professional drive! Emotional maturity and strength to professional maturity and responsibility... Roots to direction and motivation... Inner world, feelings, and emotions to outer world... Hopefully you get the picture.
Jupiter’s influence: Prosperity, luck & expansion
Everything just shared is given an even bigger dose of practical magic and energy with Jupiter’s touch. Jupiter is sextile the Capricorn moon which means positive and harmonious flow. Powerful currents of optimism, energy, passion, vitality and expansive luck are illuminating the qualities and characteristics of Capricorn, so you can tune into Jupiter’s magic (celestial and ethereal aura/essence/energy) for positive manifestation. Abundance, luck and prosperity can be yours if you put in sufficient time and dedication. Capricorn is still a grounded earth sign after all, thus abundance won’t just come to you in an “out of the blue '' type of way, like with Neptune ruled water sign Pisces!
Other themes of this moon include spirituality, generosity, honesty, wisdom, purity of mind and thought, purpose and idealistic and visionary tendencies.
Many Blessings, Cecelia
New Moon Solar Eclipse in Gemini:
Self-Expression and the Higher Mind...
✧
NEW MOON (+ SOLAR ECLIPSE) in GEMINI
10th June 2021: 6:53 am EST
✧
We’ve not long had a Lunar Eclipse in fiery, independent and visionary Sagittarius; well, now it’s a New Moon Solar Eclipse in Sag’s opposite, Gemini. This Solar Eclipse will affect people with planets in the mutable signs most: Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces, at 15 to 25 degrees. You should look to your natal chart (birth chart) to refamiliarize yourself with your influencing planetary factors, specifically with this degree bracket. Any planets which lie in these four signs will provide key insight into what is being lit up and highlighted for you at the time of this powerful New Moon.
Key qualities to be aware of: -
● Gemini is a dual sign also known as ‘the Twins.’ Gemini is intelligent, witty, perceptive and inquisitive. This air sign loves to interact with the world through the sharing of ideas and information.
● Gemini is associated with the mind and the planet Mercury, the Messenger planet of communication. They’re colorful, bright, and self-expressive individuals and are also connected to their inner child.
● A New Moon is a time of new beginnings, fresh starts and new perspectives. When coupled with a Solar Eclipse, the focus turns towards how we interact with the world, our external realities.
Self-expression is key.
Express yourself! This month’s Moon and Solar Eclipse is all about self-expression, letting love, light, and insight flow. You may choose to do this through music, art, imaginative activities, poetry, dance, arts & crafts, or any other creative or imaginative outlet. Movement is highly favored too. Our inner child’s come to light during a Gemini New Moon. Combined with a Solar
Eclipse which brings a celestial and cosmic vibration, we will all be wanting to play and let loose. Creativity favors strongly now.
Go outside and play. Connect with lovers and friends, community ties and kindred spirits. Have fun and let life force energy flow, as this will help you in other areas. It’s important that you reconnect with nature and your innocence this month, especially if you wish to advance in business, finances or career. Balance is a key theme because this Solar Eclipse occurs on the Gemini-Sagittarius axis (more on this later).
Open up… communicate.
Linked to the above is the innate pull we will all have to express our truth and share our feelings. Emotions, beliefs, philosophies, and internal impressions all want to come out at the time of the New Moon Solar Eclipse. Gemini is one of the most communicative and expressive star signs, yet they are also one of the most emotionally blocked (imbalanced, limited…). This is due to Gemini being an air sign and predominantly mind-based or mental. Unlike emotional or instinctive signs, Gemini thinks and then thinks some more. There is a slight lack of instinct and emotional intelligence- and emotional vulnerability- however this New Moon is also a Solar Eclipse. Eclipses are potent portals to the higher self.
Find ways to express your truth. Open up to people closest to you- don’t be afraid of being vulnerable or honest and authentic. Releasing and healing is essential now, as there is great opportunity for release and self-evolution. Embody Sagittarius’ courage and fierce bravery and remember that all Eclipses bring the energy of spiritual alignment. Spirit is all-encompassing, omniscient, benevolent, and unconditionally loving.
A adjust your attitude.
A shadow trait of Gemini is that they can be very deceiving and manipulative. One of the “lower” characteristics of the dual Twins is that they like to engage in gossip. Gemini can receive a kickoff of spreading mistruths and false information! Their mind thrives from stimulation which leaves them steering towards superficiality, deception, and manipulation- ‘mind games’ in other words. You need to be careful of what you say and how you say it, and your intentions when communicating and interacting with others.
The best thing you could do is to take some time for meditation and introspection. Align yourself so your mind does not rule you. We have a higher mind and a lower mind, of course; a higher self as explored in my last blog about Sagittarius (the Lunar Eclipse on May 26th). This Eclipse season occurring over two consecutive months lights up the Gemini-Sagittarius axis. Gemini and Sagittarius are opposites, they are directly opposite each other in the Zodiac wheel. This is a call for balance. Inner harmony. Balancing internal polarities and eclectic mixes of energies for unification and wholeness.
The mind is largely in focus at this time; thus, you will be receiving guidance on what you can do to adjust your attitude and realign your mindset. Try your best to stay positive. But be mindful of the opportunity presented for shifting and significant transformation… A Solar Eclipse in Gemini presents wonderful opportunities for realizing where you have been giving into gossip, manipulation, deception, self-denial, and other lower traits associated with the mind and ego. You want to aim for something higher, something more honest, integral, and pure, therefore consider spending some time connecting to planet Jupiter and the positive qualities of Sagittarius. Refer to the previous post for clarity on this!
Expand your mind and consciousness.
And, linked to this are keyways to open your mind and expand your consciousness. One natural way of transcending the lower mind is to turn your attention to the higher mind, what expands and evolves your consciousness? Ask yourself this and then take steps towards a new way and a new path. Read more books, watch more documentaries, and learn about quantum physics, astrology and numerology, or metaphysics. Discover the consciousness expanding avenues of holistic and alternative health, herbal medicine and wisdom, and the Healing Arts, like Reiki, energy healing and shamanism. There is so much inspiration, insight and wonder available in this world. The mind is a tool.
Gemini knows more than many. Gemini sign is extremely curious and inquisitive. They love learning about a range of subjects and topics, so find ways to channel your inner curiosity and desires for self-realization into mind-expanding and consciousness-raising pursuits. Think in terms of holism, spirituality, higher philosophy and wisdom, and anything considered “alternative” or “esoteric.” By opening yourself up to the beauty, magic, and magnificence of the subtle-spiritual and energetic universe, you will organically rev up your vibe and further navigate away from the egotistical and deceptive ways of the lower mind.
