On January 29th, the Moon and the Sun both at 9Β° of Aquarius will give us a very potent and innovative New Moon in Aquarius at 12:35 GMT.
A New Moon is always a great time to think about projects, wishes, dreams and to set intentions. A New Moon in Aquarius is even more powerful as the sign of the water bearer is deeply connected to our dreams, the future and what we want to achieve in the world as a big part of the world.
This New Moon represents novelty, innovation and progress and these themes are to be used for the community, the society we live in and our authentic selves. The sign of Aquarius is rooted in authenticity and truth, they are the foundations of great progress and long-term change.
This New Moon is very potent and full of magic and transformation for the better: with the Sun, the Moon, Mercury and Pluto in Aquarius, our identity, emotions, communication and deep psychological patterns can be enhanced, improved and developed.
An harmonious trine between the Moon and Jupiter in Gemini boosts our optimism, forward/out-of-the-box thinking and helps us open up perspectives. Change can be embraced in an easy and fluid manner.
What kind of intentions are we going to set? The key words here are innovation, truth, dreams, future and social progress. In a world always in turnmoil, when we all share better scenarios and envision more equality, love and justice, we can truly make progress!
Wishing you all lots of authentic ideas and intentions under this wonderful New Moon π€π€π€

On January 13th, at 22.26 GMT, the Moon at 23Β° of Cancer will oppose the Sun at 23Β° of Capricron, giving us the first Full Moon of the year 2025, in the sign of the crab.
The Moon is thriving in her home sign Cancer and will shine to help us see clearly what no longer works in our life. In Cancer, the emphasis is definitely on what nurtures us (or doesn’t), where we feel at ease, at home and protected and what makes us feel uneasy or in survival mode. Anything going against our own comfort and protection will be highlighted so we can fix a situation, a pattern, an intuitive nudge…
Full Moons are related to releasing toxicity, shedding our old skin and sometimes even letting go of people. In Cancer, this process is soft yet powerful, obstacles are dissolving with the tides of emotions and we can feel lighter and ready for our next steps.
The Moon is in a trine to Saturn in Pisces, easing up the edges, facilitating improvement and pushing us gently to stay focussed and disciplined. Another trine between the Moon in Cancer and Neptune in Pisces is like a green light to dreams and visions: yes, another take on the world is possible, yes dreamers have powers and yes, imagination is what creates reality. Softness doesn’t mean weakness and this could be the mantra of this Full Moon. A loose conjunction between the Moon and Mars (still retrograde) feels like we have the energy required to transform but it should be well channeled: let us not forget that any emotion is energy in motion so we’d better choose wisely!
Both the Sun and the Moon are well aspected to Uranus in Taurus and this is quite auspicious for anyone who wants to see clearly, experience a lightbulb moment or welcome change. Things are clicking, we are understanding some patterns, we are transforming and a inner revolution might be silent but it is potent nonetheless.
This Full Moon is internal, feminine and deeply transformative. It is about that soft power, that intuition, that trust in the language of the Universe and above all, about love. For as corny as it sounds, this is the only emotion that truly moves mountains, attracts miracles and heals any soul.
To love, care, respect and instinct, to wisdom and to a quiet yet strong magic, I wish you an enchanting Full Moon in Cancer π€π€π€

On December 30th, at 22:26 GMT, the Sun and the Moon, both at 9Β° of the sign of Capricorn will give us the second New Moon of December and the second New Moon in Capricorn of the year!
There’s already something significant with this New Moon in Capricorn. We started the year 2024 with a New Moon in Capricorn on January 11th and we’re closing it with another one. Coming full circle couldn’t be clearer!
Capricorn, the Sea-Goat, is famous for being the sign of structure and discipline but we often forget that it also has a great depth of emotions, lots of wisdom and a very strong sense of humour! While diligence and serious work are important, I feel like this New Moon is inviting us to dive a bit deeper into the latter qualities mentioned above. It’s the end of the year and we’re almost starting 2025 and despite all the gloom and horror happening in the world, let’s try to approach the new year with a better energy.
The energy of emotional maturity is a big part of this Capricorn New Moon. It’s like knowing what works for us, what drains us and how we cope with life in general. With all this knowledge in our tool box, we can approach our intentions and plans with more fluidity and please -oh please- a bit more fun as well!
Both luminaries (the Sun and the Moon) are in a sextile to Saturn (ruler of Capricorn) in Pisces: flexibility in structure, fluidity in work and creativity even in the mundane are required for us to get to our destination!
Even though Capricorn is associated with the 3D reality, it is, nonetheless a very spiritual sign. The chart of this lunation is highlighting the creative and universal power of transformation: Mars is in a trine to Neptune, Uranus sextile Neptune and Neptune sextile Pluto. Our intentions and actions could very well come from the Divine, from our intuition and they will lead us to the right place.
Between the first New Moon in Capricorn of 2024 and this one, an awful lot of things has happened and it feels like the Universe is asking us to look back and see how far we’ve progressed and how we can use what we have learnt to improve even further. The point of this lunation, I guess, is to encourage us and to support us in our advancements. For this is the only real goal of any soul incarnated on Earth: to get better, to learn, to play the game and move on.
With all the wisdom and help from the Universe, let’s think about what we want our future to look like, let’s set those intentions and let’s approach 2025 with renewed hope and love for life. Raising our individual vibration is raising the collective vibrations and therefore improving the world.
To a last good look at 2024 and towards a fulfilling 2025, I wish you a wonderful and magical New Moon in Capricorn π€π€π€

On December 15th, at 09:01 GMT, the Moon at 23Β° of Gemini will be opposing the Sun and thus create the last Full Moon of the year in the sign of the Twins.
Gemini is very much associated with communication, knowledge, exchanges, creativity and language. A Full Moon usually represents release, culmination, and the light on an essential matter or situation. This Full Moon is the last one of the year and is an invitation to look for our personal truth and settle in it before we start 2025.
With many planets in mutable signs in this chart, there’s a real emphasis on adaptability, creativity, communication, finding creative solutions etc… but also on possible overload of info and fatigue of the nervous system. This Full Moon asks us, in a way, to go inward and connect to our dream world and our wishes.
At the time of the Full Moon, Mercury, the ruling planet of the sign of Gemini, stations direct and opens the way for a clearer communication and the highlight of our truth and what works for us. Speaking of truth and authenticity, Uranus is in a trine to Pluto and this calls for self-realisation, deep understanding of who we really are individually.
Truth is one of the big themes of this lunation and it is somehow represented by the conjunction between the Sun in Sagittarius and the Galactic Center. Something is being revealed so we can get a clear direction and make progress towards what is good for us and our evolution. Authenticity is what moves us forward in the long-term!
Reconnecting to our inner self, envisioning our dreams and goals and working on our truth and authenticity are so important under this Full Moon.
Wishing you a magnificent Full Moon in Gemini π€π€π€

On December 1st, the Sun and the Moon conjunct at 9Β° in the sign of the Centaur will create a expansive New Moon in Sagittarius at 6:21 GMT.
Sagittarius is the sign of adventure and discovery, unchartered territories and expansion. Led by faith and a positive outlook, the sign of the Centaur runs fast after his dreams and hits his target most of the time. When we sit under a Sagittarius New Moon, our intention setting could be strong and powerful. Motivated by our higher self and big dreams, wishes made authentically may come true sooner than expected: this is the swiftness of Sagittarius in all its beauty.
Setting true intentions, starting a new month all fresh and clean and envisioning a bright future… this is quite the agenda!
While the Sun, the Moon and Mercury all in Sagittarius fuel our desire for expansion and discovery, let’s not forget that Mercury is in retrograde and that we may have to review carefully what we want or wish for. Delays or readjustements are more than likely. These 3 planets, however, are in a trine to Mars in Leo, giving us the energy and enthusiasm to keep on going despite challenges. Mercury is in opposition to Jupiter retrograde in Gemini and it feels like a good time to take off the rose-tinted glasses and see what action needs to be taken. Optimism is a wonderful trait but too much of it can lead us astray. On a different note, both the Sun and the Moon are in a square to Saturn in Pisces, indicating that we must surrender: many things are out of our control and staying fixated on them is a waste of time. All in all, let’s take concrete and well-thought action and leave the rest to the Universe. Faith is one the most important components of a Sagittarius lunation!
December will gift us two new Moons and this feels extra magical, extra potent and new. Something better is on the horizon! With Sagittarius we see the bigger picture, aim high and at the end of the month, Capricorn will give us structure and discipline to reach the top. How well-rounded is the Universe?!
I wish you all big dreams, fulfillment and happiness. It starts within us and then we can carry others. Much love π€π€π€

On November 15th, at 21:28 GMT, we’ll experience a Super Full Moon at 24Β° of Taurus.
As usual, a Full Moon is all about completion, release, closure as it is the peak of the Moon cycle. It is very highlighting and shows us what we need to see to improve an area of our life.
The themes of truth and higher knowledge are associated to this Full Moon in Taurus as it occurs on the Scorpio (seeker of truth and understanding)/Taurus axis. Moreover, the Moon is conjunct Uranus (sudden revelations, eureka moments) in Taurus. We could witness new developments in banking, resources (farming, minerals and so on) and digital currencies. Quite a time to live in!
The sign of Taurus is a fixed earth sign and represents stability, material security and comfort (among plenty of other attributes). As a fixed sign, Taurus can be linked to the unwillingness to change, to adapt or even to step out of a cocoon and this particular Full Moon feels like a spotlight shining on these traits: where have we been stuck? What kind of habits are preventing us from improvement? In which areas of our life have we been too lazy? This Full Super Moon could feel like an electric shock to help us get unstuck; get flowing and move towards our goals.
The day of the Full Moon, Saturn stations direct in Pisces reinforcing this idea of flow and freedom of movement. Obstacles are being removed by higher forces, a way is being made and we can see a guiding light. Along with the end of Saturn retrograde, there’s a beautiful trine between Pluto (the ruling planet of Scorpio, standing for deep and intense transformation) in Capricorn and the Moon and Uranus in Taurus. What we see clearly is bringing a very intense but essential shift in our psyche and in our daily life.
Of course, change, transformation or even transmutation are never easy and sometimes painful but it’s significant to keep an open and positive mindset. The Universe never asks us to push our limits without gifting us tools and rewards! A bit like in a video game or an epic tale, nuggets of wisdom will be found on the way and notable milestones will be reached. Never alone, always part of the universal grand scheme, we find our way through life!
With that stated, I wish you all a wonderful Full Super Moon in Taurus, filled with enlightenment, positive change and trust in the future and the Universe π€π€π€
Today was good. Today was fun. Tomorrow is another one. – Dr Seuss
On November 1st, the Sun and the Moon, conjunct at 9Β° of Scorpio will give us a deep New Moon in Scorpio at 12:46 GMT.
The sign of Scorpio is connected to mystery, research, investigation, truth, psychology, courage to dig deep to uncover something and also power play and jealousy. It is a very intuitive sign and when in alignment, Scorpios can be invicible.
Under this New Moon, while it’s a great idea to set intentions (the energy is strong, the veil is thin!) it is also very important to take a clear and unbiased look at what we really want in life and why. This lunation is perfect to understand the deeply-rooted patterns and mechanisms of our desires and to help us manifest them faster: when we know the exact reason why we want to achieve a goal, it gives us strength and stamina even in the face of adversity.
Both the Sun and the Moon are in trine to Saturn in Pisces and this means that we not only have the tenacity and discipline to work on ourselves but also the fluidity to readjust and adapt to what works best for us. Our gut instinct is quite activated at that time so connecting our heart, mind and soul is incredibly beneficial for our progress.
The Sun and the Moon in Scorpio are in a square to Pluto (the ruler of Scorpio) in Capricorn and this feels to me as a strong rollercoaster like emotional life but also the needed push to evolve and take the next (however difficult) step. With a bit of grounding and calming practices, we’ll be able to go through these choppy waters and get out more mature and skilled!
On a more global note, Pluto in Capricorn is opposite Mars in Cancer and this highlights power struggles and political structures. This aspect along with the New Moon in Scorpio could bring new truths about a political party or even big changes in the wider world.
New intentions, strong emotions and a way to dive deep into our psyche to soar back more experienced… This is what this lunation has in store for us.
Wishing you a meaningful New Moon in Scorpio π€π€π€

On October 17th, at 11:26 GMT, the Sun in Libra will oppose the Moon in Aries at 24Β° and give us a Full Super Moon in Aries.
Every Full Moon acts as a spotlight and shows us what needs to be purged, readjusted or even cast aside! This particular Full Moon happens to be a Super Moon and the closest one to Earth in 2024… so the energy is very very potent. It also happens to be in Aries, quite a bold, fiery and hot-tempered sign! We can expect high emotions, maybe a bit of anger and impatience… along with the willpower to (re)start something in a more proper way.
The chart of this Full Moon is very interesting as it shows a cardinal grand cross: there are planets in each cardinal sign (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn) at about the same degree. These signs represent novelty, the start of projects, the momentum to to things and the first step taken. A grand cross is challenging and brings friction but also the strength to lead a project, launch an idea and balance all the elements around that particular thing you want to achieve.
There’s definitely big changes ahead, in your personal life and individuality (Aries and Cancer) but also in the collective (Libra and Capricorn). We might feel daring and ready but also exhausted and this is why we need to pace ourselves and act with a calm and collected mind and soul. We will benefit from Jupiter’s good luck as it is in a trine to the Sun and in a sextile to the Moon: the edges will be softened, ease will come when our mind is at rest!
With this highly transformative Full Super Moon in Aries, we are asked to let go of our fears (the deep seated ones, far into our subconscious) but also to see clearly what we want and what we need to release in order to walk more lightly towards our dreams.
Wishing you all the best under this Full Super Moon π€π€π€

Or how to initiate a new cycle, new partnerships and agreements!

On October 2nd, at 18:46 GMT, we will experience an annular solar eclipse at 10Β° of Libra. The Moon and the Sun will be conjunct in the sign of Libra, inviting us to set new intentions and look for a fresh start.
A New Moon is always an opportunity to start something new, to think about what we want to achieve and to write down our intentions so they become our reality. When a partial solar eclipse is added to the mix, the energies are even stronger and our manifestation powers are almost on steroids!
In the sign of Libra, the emphasis is definitely on partnerships, harmony, contracts, agreements and diplomacy. A change will occur and will most likely ask us to find or restore balance in our life.
In which areas of our life do we lack harmony and balance? What about the give and take ratio? How is our work supporting us? Are we fair or do we need to look for more justice and fairness? Are our partnerships based on equality? These questions could help us redefine our life towards a better and more harmonious self.
An eclipse along with a new moon look really much like a reset. We can see it as a sort of pause and reflection time before a starting new adventure. The Sun, the Moon and Mercury, all in Libra are in a square to Mars in Cancer, highlighting even brighter the idea that we need to stop for a moment. There’s a feeling to do better, not harder, to gather up our strength and energy before taking a leap, to reflect on our desires, emotions and the information we have before taking action!
A grand water trine between Mars in Cancer, Venus in Scorpio and Saturn in Pisces is appearing with this lunation. Intuition and empathy are under the spotlight and it feels like the Universe is inviting us to get in touch with our gut instinct. Emotional intelligence is as significant as logic at work or in our daily interactions and it helps us seeing the truth and authenticity of a person or situation. To find balance or harmony, intuition is key! In other words, if it feels off, then it needs to change!
The themes of this lunation are diplomacy, harmony and relationships. An eclipse always comes with the idea of fate and destiny. What is not aligned with our personal growth and personal path will be removed. Toxic behaviours (in Libra it’s all about people pleasing, too much diplomacy and even fakeness) won’t survive this time and if we don’t work on ourselves, the Universe will bring more lessons for us to grow!
So under this New Moon, let’s take time to review what could be improved, find the right words to express ourselves in truth and respect and embrace balance between our heart and our mind. There are many healthier and more harmonious possibilities on the horizon, a big and for the better change is in reach!
Let us not forget that eclipse season is quite draining energetically so stay hydrated, rest when you need it and as always, trust the Universe!
Wishing you a wonderful New Moon Solar Eclipse in Libra π€π€π€

On September 18th, we will experience a very intense Super Full Moon Lunar Eclipse at 25Β° of Pisces. Let’s get ready!
Eclipse season has arrived with remarkable energy, as always. Eclipses bring potent energy, fated changes and a sense of destiny. No matter the shape it takes, something will definitely shift in our life!
This Super Full Moon Eclipse is occuring on the Virgo/Pisces axis, highlighting the need to find balance between the realm of infinite possibilities and the structure required to build a dream life. It also focusses on the concept of service, for oneself, for others and in ethereal and physical spaces.
Pisces is the ruler of many different things, compassion, intuition, dreams, ghosts, mental health, addictions, dissociative behaviours, hidden fears, liminal spaces, imaginition and the infinity of everything… And the list could go on! With this eclipse, we could suddenly have a profound or even life-changing revelation about a psychologial pattern or behaviour we refused to analyse. It could also appear as a truth, raw and direct about us. It feels like we’re going to take off our rose-tinted glasses and finally address the issue.
Depth, inner knowing and lightbulb moments are very likely to be significant elements as the Moon forms a trine to Uranus in Taurus and a trine to Pluto in Capricorn: deep dive and transformation are just around the corner. Knowledge could appear in dreams, images or meditation. Our psychic abilities are enhanced as the Moon and Neptune are conjunct in Pisces: we will definitely receive messages!
As always with Pisces, we are asked to let go of our ego, illusions and burdens and to go with flow, doing the best with what we currently have. Realisations and transformations are not easy but they are supporting our growth and evolution. I see this Full Moon Eclipse as a pivotal point towards our destiny: the cards have been dealt and we can play the game and win, it all depends on our will to do good and our faith in the Universe.
Wishing you all blessings and miracles π€π€π€
