Today's Sagittarius Full Moon (12:12 PM PDT 15° Sagittarius) offers tremendous creative potential but the chaos of the powerful mutable squares to Mars and Neptune in Pisces demands enormous faith — 'trust in the process'. In this atmosphere, that is no small challenge! As Mars approaches the conjunction with Neptune, bubbles begin to burst and inflated expectations are dashed. However, this Sagittarius Full Moon encourages a philosophical attitude and certainly rewards honest effort. Our ultimate challenge is to continue to exercise self-discipline and honor the past but at the same time use the vast creative potential here to break new ground and expand the boundaries of the past. Mercury enters the shadow phase of the next retrograde period (June 18th - July 12th) today. There is a real need to find some sense of stability in order for our best creative initiatives to flourish.


Weekly Summary

MAY 31 - JUNE 6

"The one person who has more illusions than the dreamer is the man of action."
— Oscar Wilde

Mars in Pisces stirs up a great deal of confusion this week, making squares to the Sun and Venus while heading into next week's collision with Neptune. The freedom that Mars demands is hampered in the foggy atmosphere of Pisces. Compassion, responsible self-discipline, and patience are needed but disrupted by the restless curiosity of the Gemini Sun and Venus. There is a wealth of creativity in this environment. However, clarity and awareness may be hard to find. Our opportunities for creative breakthroughs require cooperation and collaboration but such connections are not easy to make. The patience required to make such connections are in short supply and our attempts at communication can easily become emotional and lead only to defensiveness and impatience. The Sagittarius Full Moon on Friday (12:12 PM PDT 15° Sagittarius/Gemini) brings the creative potential, chaos, and confusion to a crescendo. Sagittarius is a notably 'lucky' sign but also subject to over-optimism and unsustainable expansion. Our challenge is to make space for creative breakthroughs while honoring the past and maintaining responsible self-discipline. Ultimately, this week's Mars-Neptune emphasis offers the raw materials for making our dreams come true. But we need self-control, patience and clear vision. Otherwise, the interaction of Mars and Neptune, distracted and stirred up by the restless impatience of the Gemini Sun and retrograde Venus in Gemini, will result in dashed expectations and lost dreams.

The idealism in the atmosphere on Sunday keeps us stirred up most of the day. We should not forget our need for collaboration and cooperation. Charm and charisma may or may not work to support some questionable motivations on Monday. Tensions become more intense throughout the day. Low self-esteem and insecurity keep us at loose ends on Tuesday. There are few avenues for effective communication until the evening when the floodgates open and our emotions spill out. There are a wealth of creative breakthroughs on Wednesday but we may need extra awareness and vision in order to make sense of what is being presented. Otherwise, we may only see chaos and confusion. There's a bit of stabilization early on Thursday but, without some extra self-control, we may become distracted by unnecessary defensiveness. Compassion will help us to avoid becoming hostile or defensive. Friday's Full Moon brings the confusion to a peak and there is some potential for dashed expectations. However, a philosophical approach and self-discipline will help us to make the most of the creative opportunities. The more that we can trust the chaotic process, the more progress we will make. Aggression is prominent on Saturday but may only be seen as passive-aggression and some tendency to martyrdom.

Saturday June 06, 2020

Aggression may seem to be the most obvious approach to processing yesterday's Sagittarius Full Moon (12:12 PM PDT 15° Sagittarius/Gemini) under today's Sun-Mars square. However, martian aggression is dampened in Pisces and may look more like passive-aggression. The Moon is VOC until just after noon (12:44 PM PDT), when it's arrival in Capricorn further restricts our approach. As Mars races towards next Saturday's collision with Neptune, we should remember that the Mars-Neptune exchange can provide the energy and determination to make our dreams come true but only with self-discipline, self-control, and clear vision. Without those elements, we are more likely to see our dreams and illusions evaporate and our expectations dashed.

Sunday June 07, 2020

Today's wealth of opportunity could easily be missed if we get too far 'off track' chasing rainbows and impractical distractions.The creative potential of last Friday's Full Moon is available to be harvested but only if we can stay focused. Humility, patience, and gratitude may serve us especially well by keeping our 'feet on the ground' and our focus on specific action to further our goals and aspirations. We should not expect that our ideas are readily understood by others — translation may be needed in order for us to get 'buy in' from others.


Weekly Summary

JUNE 7 - JUNE 13

"If you can see your path laid out in front of you step by step, you know it's not your path. Your own path you make with every step you take. That's why it's your path."
— Joseph Campbell

The week culminates with a conjunction of Mars and Neptune following the Sun's square to both planets. The lack of clarity that we have been dealing with for much of this year reaches a new peak, while creative tension brings with it some significant frustration, impulsiveness, and aggression. The challenge, in this atmosphere, is to seek a broader range of perspectives and look for promising pieces of 'common ground'. The creativity in this environment can be enhanced with experimentation and a broad perspective. On the other hand, the idealistic, creative tension in this atmosphere may produce or expose hidden (or overt) hostility, extreme frustration, and intense disappointment. In general, mutable squares, such as this week's Gemini-Pisces squares, feel very chaotic. However, the chaotic process associated with mutable squares usually offers resolutions if we can 'stay with the process'. There are slowdowns this week, associated with the slowdown of Mercury, which will turn retrograde at the end of next week. The slowdowns may only exacerbate our frustration and impulsiveness. Nonetheless, through the chaos and slowdowns, we may very well find that — in the end — we have been guided to exactly where we need to be in order to find the sense of security that we need. Our creativity and idealism needs to be supported within a secure and safe environment. With enough awareness, we may actually recognize that we are being guided towards the 'safe place' we need to find in order to follow our creative vision to a remarkable completion.

Sunday's opportunities may be easily missed by chasing impractical distractions. There is a wealth of creative potential to be 'harvested'. It isn't easy to maintain any sort of control on Monday, under the VOC Moon. The evening brings a hemmed in feeling upon the Moon's arrival in Aquarius. It is important to look for other perspectives in order to expand our own. A broadened perspective is even more important on Tuesday. Frustration is especially debilitating. Impulsive aggression is stirred up by intense idealism. There is an overpowering feeling of nihilism or fatalistic resignation in the atmosphere on Wednesday. However withdrawing may be just the thing we need in order to rebuild our emotional and physical reserves. The Sun's square to Neptune on Thursday offers little clarity and heightened idealism. We're better off to stay with the process and do whatever we can to dissipate any frustration. Tension is especially high on Friday and slowdowns seem to increase our dissatisfaction. On Saturday, the emotional intensity of creative tension brings increased tendency to aggression that shows little purpose or direction. The need to find common purpose and broader perspectives is paramount.
