lunar eclipse
Astrological Forecast December 7 – 13, 2020
Things will flow along fairly quietly this week, as we move through the second half of the lunar eclipse. Today is however a great time to get your ducks in a row. Using the Virgo Moon to plunge into detailed work and organizational projects will prove fruitful, so take the opportunity today to careful go over your holiday budget, plan that party or celebration, or finalize your holiday travel arrangements. With Christmas only a few weeks away, it’s time to get down to business anyway!
Wednesday and Thursday will be good days to restore balance, both within and without, under the Libra Moon. So, take a break from all the end of year activity to just relax and breathe!
The Scorpio Moon will reign on Friday and Saturday, calling for more social activity and spiritual reflection. Don’t worry if you can’t get to everything on your list early in the week, as Sunday’s Sagittarius Moon will have you moving at lightning speed through all your chores and obligations.
Astrological Forecast November 30 – December 6, 2020
A lunar eclipse greets us today, as the Gemini Moon (also known as the Frosty Moon) waxes full and marks the first of two eclipses this month, along with a significant shift in direction for the next six months. Eclipses tend to come in pairs, one lunar and one solar, and the solar eclipse will occur in two weeks, on Monday, December 14th. During this cycle, we need to step back and go within to prepare for new beginnings, release the past, and consider a new focus for the start of 2021. This week’s lunar eclipse encourages us to put aside our emotions, and look more closely at the tangible, practical aspects of our lives.
Mercury will move into Sagittarius tomorrow, turning our thoughts to the coming holiday season. Under Wednesday and Thursday’s Cancer Moon, we may feel inspired to begin decorating our homes for the celebrations ahead or, at the very least, take a closer look at creating more flow and harmony in our surroundings. The remainder of the week unfolds under a Leo Moon, calling us to practice care and generosity not only with those around us, but also with ourselves. It’s easy to forget to take care of ourselves during the astrological eclipses, so the most important thing we can do this weekend will be to put ourselves first!
June 2020 Weekly Astro Forecasts
June 1 – 7
The exciting news this week is Friday’s Sagittarius Full Moon and Lunar Eclipse! Lunar and solar eclipses always come in pairs, with one following the other in a period of two weeks. So, this week’s Lunar Eclipse will be followed by a Solar Eclipse in Cancer on June 21st.
Eclipses set the tone for the next six months, so these lunations will usher in a time of focusing on our perceptions of home, family, security and emotional issues. Over the next two weeks, watch for new insights and clarity that emerge from honoring our emotions and tending to our hearts.
Monday’s Libra Moon will cast a centering energy over us all. The Moon will travel through Scorpio on Tuesday and Wednesday, evoking our spiritual and intuitive sides to the surface. The lunar eclipse occurs under a Sagittarius Full Moon (also known as a Strawberry Moon) and asks us to release inhibitions and restrictions that are holding us back.
If we’ve got anything important to accomplish on the home front, Sunday’s Capricorn Moon will give us the energy to tackle and complete unfinished tasks.
June 8 – 14
A nice quiet week awaits, as we move through the two current eclipses occurring in June. Monday’s Capricorn Moon will make this the most productive day of the week, moving us through our tasks and obligations at record speed.
Under Tuesday and Wednesday’s Aquarius Moon, our inventive and social sides will emerge. Focusing on friendships and solutions to current problems, we should be mindful of our emotions and intuitive urgings.
The Cosmic Weather Channel
We have all checked a daily weather forecast at some point. Will it be hot or cold? Will it rain or snow? But did you know that a different kind of ‘weather’ affects our lives just as much? We are also impacted by the ‘cosmic weather’ – the astrological positions of the planets and other heavenly bodies, as well as related phenomena, such as eclipses, solstices, equinoxes, aurora borealis (Northern Lights), solar flares, and meteor showers.
The recent “Great American Eclipse” was a large-scale event which many people observed. But what did it mean? Solar eclipses represent the shadow of the Moon (the yin, feminine, and intuitive) obscuring the Sun (yang, masculine, and logical). An eclipse therefore creates the illusion of twilight in the middle of the day. From a metaphysical perspective it is the perfect time for added insight, previously hidden knowledge, and inspired ideas. Continue reading
Solar Eclipse August 21, 2017 – Are You Prepared?
A rare solar eclipse is expected to occur coast to coast over the USA tomorrow. Some believe this eclipse is a negative spiritual event.
Traditionally a total eclipse was seen as a source of dark energy or a bad omen, because the Sun’s energy is blocked and the Earth goes dark for a while. However, I believe this is a misconception in regards to the actual energetic and spiritual attributes of a solar eclipse.
When a solar eclipse takes place, it heightens the energy towards the Earth and all humans, but especially towards those on a spiritual journey. This is a good time to meditate, reflect and successfully perform personal spiritual rituals or practices. And yes, because the energy pull shifts, it means that you will feel the difference if you allow yourself to.
However, there are positive and negative energetic aspects to a solar eclipse, if you are not careful. If you are in a state of peace, you will experience enhanced peace at this time. If you are in a state of unrest, you will have an enhanced state of unrest. It is imperative to be in a good space and be mindful of your thoughts, words and actions during this eclipse.

Mysteries Of The Moon Phases
Even the most casual observer knows that the Moon continually changes shape in the sky. This is because its regular orbit of approximately 28 days puts it at different points relative to the Earth and the Sun, making it go through phases.
So why should we care about this? Well, as the nearest celestial object to Earth, the Moon has a special place in Astrology, as well as the psychic realm itself. Our planet, as well as our bodies, consist of over two-thirds water, and therefore the Moon’s gravitational force affects us in different ways at different points in its orbit.
It’s worth noting here that the word lunatic comes from Luna, the Latin for “Moon.” But the Moon doesn’t make us insane, as some ancient stories would have us believe. However, a recent study suggest the Moon phases may affect our sleep patterns, and it has also been shown that the Moon influences the behavior of various animals. Continue reading
The Hunter’s Moon Brings A New Day
This year we were up on four occasions, watching as the Sun, and the Moon, Lady Moon, were in the sky at the same time. The sun passed over the Moon, turning the Moon and sky blood red… four times in a row. The whole of the purple, darkened sky lighted up as if thousands of fireworks had burst into colors raining down on our spirits with beauty.
The first Blood Moon eclipse in this total series of four happened on April 15, 2014 and the last one happened on October 8, 2014. This special occurrence is known as a lunar tetrad. The next total eclipse will take place on April 4, 2015.
The majesty and wonder of the Hunter’s Moon, the Blood Moon, reminds us of the glories of the universe. With this we see the doors to Other Worlds, the Other Side opening up, allowing the lights to come back in. With this, we can expect great events, wondrous omens of changes to come. Continue reading
