Full Moon
2nd February 5.44am GMT

Sun 12˚ 59' Aquarius
Moon 12˚ 59' Leo

The Moon has been looking amazing set against the dark sky.  I had the pleasure of seeing the Moon Venus conjunction about 36 hours after the last new Moon.  I dragged my friends out of their home and down the track to see it.  How blessed we were to see the thin sliver of the new Moon with Venus sitting next to it.  As I write, the moonlight is amazing and calls to me to go Moon bathing.

Well what does this full Moon chart hold for us? 

The Sun and Moon are opposite each other, the Sun is conjunct Neptune (applying), the Moon is conjunct Saturn (applying), Venus is conjunct Uranus (applying).  Capricorn is rising and Mars and Pluto sit either side of the ascendant, in fact the ascendant is on the Mars Pluto midpoint.  Saturn is the chart ruler in the 7th and opposite Neptune (applying). 

Capricorn ascendant likes to take its time, needing a solid foundation before it steps out into the world.  Capricorn has sheer determination, takes life seriously and often, after a lot of hard work,  gets what it wants.  This ascendant is very powerful, being on the midpoint of Mars Pluto. Ebertin suggests the “principles of this are super human power, a desire to face danger, and accidents”.  Capricorn is connected to people in authority and the government.  Maybe something is going to happen in the government that’s going to affect a lot of people? 

The Sun is in its detriment conjunct Neptune (applying) and in opposition to Saturn (applying) so it’s not at its happiest.  Mercury is separating from an opposition with Saturn.  This chart has a lot of oppositions which can feel like front doors with all their bells ringing at the same time and which one do you answer first?  Oppositions are about awareness and becoming aware of the other.  Again, as in the past, this chart reflects a lot of issues around self worth versus the restrictions of other people’s feelings.

Pluto is conjunct the galactic centre and there are lots of shifts going on for everyone.  I hear more people talking about their carbon footprint and taking responsibility for their actions on this planet.  The weather is the mildest it’s been in January since 1916 and more houses are being repossessed due to inflation.  Sometimes I wonder where it will all end.  I come back to the point of what I can do.  I feed the birds (editor’s comment: even seagulls!) commune with nature and honour every living being.

Happy full Moon

PS Don’t forget to look to the west and see Venus shining brightly after sunset.
