Full Moon in Sagittarius

May 20th, 2024

Or how to get a good clear and meaningful look at our dreams!

On May 23rd, at 13.52 GMT, the Moon at 2° of Sagittarius will oppose the Sun at 2° of Gemini creating a transformative Full Moon in Sagittarius.

The Gemini/Sagittarius axis is focussed on ideas, communication and moving back and forth from a bigger picture to the details of it. Philosophy, beliefs, languages, information are likely to be highlighted under this Full Moon. The energy is very intense and even though the Moon is associated with our emotions, I feel like our mental energy will be enhanced as well with this lunation. There’s a real quest for meaning and a reassessment of our dreams and goals. Seeing what hasn’t worked for us, gaining clarity and a bit of boldness that was definitely lacking: these are the ingredients that this Full Moon will provide us!

A Full Moon is putting an area of our lives under the spotlight. In Sagittarius, this area is linked to what we want to achieve and why we want to achieve it. What are our beliefs? What is driving us? How do we envision the future? There is certainly a positive outlook with the sign of the Archer and a real trust in the Universe and its plan.

Jupiter, the ruler of Sagittarius is at 29° of Taurus: this is a significant degree in astrology as it represents the finish line, the completion of a cycle. Jupiter is opposing the Moon in Sagittarius and to me this feels like a final opportunity to see where we have been and to move on with the tools we have gathered along the way. For life is both a gift and a game and we have to keep learning to progress, evolve and have fun.

Both luminaries are well aspected with Pluto retrograding in Aquarius and this is a great asset: we have the possibility to understand deeply our motivations, our mistakes (if there’s such a thing) and how to alchemise the lessons we learned into wisdom and success. In the sign of Aquarius, we also blend the qualities of the thinker and communicator Gemini with the future oriented and straight-to-the-point Sagittarius! The Universe is gifting us ideas, solutions, creativity and the ability to move forward gracefully and with purpose.

Of course, this is a Full Moon and we have to understand it as a way to see clearly and release what no longer serves our highest good. To advance on our path, to keep learning, to find meaning and gems of wisdom, we must be ready to let go of limited perceptions, toxicity and negative self-talk. This might be the most difficult task required of us but also the most rewarding. So let’s walk on lightly, a bit more freely and always expecting the best for everything starts in the Mind and the Mind is everything. And with Gemini and Sagittarius, the mind and soul are definitely everything.

Wishing you miracles, movement forward and purpose 🤍🤍🤍

Full Moon in Scorpio

April 22nd, 2024

Or how to face what needs healing!

Martino Pietropoli on Unspash

On April 23rd, at 23:48 GMT, the Sun at 4° of Aries will be opposite the Moon at 4° of Scorpio, creating a very transformational Full Moon in Scorpio.

A Full Moon is a guiding light from the Universe inviting us to see without filter what has been preventing us from growing and evolving. From unhealed trauma to toxic coping mechanisms, we travel through life with a real need for healing and building healthy habits and thoughts. This task is not an easy one, we must unfold layers upon layers of trauma, self-doubt, negative thinking and poisonous attachments. To find oneself, to be genuinely who we are meant to be, we must face our shadows, embrace them, accept them and release them. Easier said than done.

This is where the Full Moon in Scorpio appears, intense, transformative, brave and ready to show us what we need to transmute.

With a lot of energy in Aries, the sign of the self, of the I AM, there is definitely a focus on our essence and substance. Who are we really, deep in our core? The Sun, Uranus and Jupiter in Taurus are highlighting our self-worth and what we have, not only on the material plane but also inside us. What qualities and resources do we possess and how can we hone our skills and use them better? To transform and expand, we have to know where we stand and a careful self-assessment is required. The Moon in Scorpio is in a square to Pluto (Scorpio’s ruler) in Aquarius: we might feel ungrounded and might want to escape working on our not-so-pleasant feelings and emotions but this is so necessary anyway. The square between the Sun in Taurus and Pluto is adding some pressure to the mix: along with running away fron our feelings, we also might feel like wallowing into what’s comfortable and easy and we may even be very stubborn at that time.

Transformation doesn’t come easily. The rewards, however, are life-changing. So let’s dive deep without fear so we can expand and rise to the next level. Let’s release the chains we created and let’s start our ascension. By harnessing the powerful energy of the Scorpio archetype, we will experience a powerful shift.

With love, strength and light 🤍 🤍 🤍

Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Libra

March 22nd, 2024

Or how to clean up all of our relationships and start on a fresh note!

Kelly Sikkema on Unsplash

On March 25th at 07:13 GMT, we will experience an intense Full Moon Lunar Eclipse at 5° of Libra.

An eclipse is always a very powerful event that represents the end of something. As scary as it may seem, it is for our good. How many times do we pinpoint a problem or a toxic trait and don’t do anything about it? Eclipses are the Universe way to support us in doing all the release and letting go that are required to feel better and progress. It might feel uneasy but it is so essential.

In Libra, the main theme is relationships: from work partnerships to marriages, from friends to soul tribe, people that surround you as well as the dynamics of interaction with them are under the spotlight. The Moon is very personal and emotional and keeping the topic of relationships in mind, some questions could be brought up to the surface. What kind of relationships do we want to nurture? What have we learnt in our communication with people? What kind of behaviour is toxic or no longer working in our life? What relationship needs to change or be released?

This Full Moon in Libra is also echoing the South Node in Libra: people pleasing is detrimental to ourselves and if this is an ongoing pattern in our life, it may be a good time to implement change. Are we sometimes too diplomatic? Should we be more assertive when it comes to our values and needs? All this pondering is supported by the trine between Pluto in Aquarius and the Moon in Libra. Deep understanding, profound enlightenment about a situation and the ability to transform into a healthier modus operandi are very likely to appear.

With four planets in Pisces, our intuition is heightened and it feels like a gentle nudge to trust our instincts about someone or a relationship. To flow with what feels right in our heart, core and soul and to approach situations with discernment yet drops of intuitive energy can be very helpful. I feel like we’re balancing (the Scales of Libra) our intuition and emotions (Pisces) with our will to go forward as genuinely as possible (Sun, Mercury and North Node in Aries).

This Full Moon Lunar Eclipse represents a portal of healing and evolution. Uranus, the planet of change, revolution and sudden, electric momentum is in a trine with Venus, the ruler of this Full Moon: it might be an internal revolution, a quiet epiphany but an eye-opening one nonetheless. Once we are awake, there is no turning back and progress is the only way.

The energies of any eclipse can be chaotic and draining, sleep patterns could be disturbed, appetite might fluctuate and rest is recommended.

Sending you healing, nurturing and peaceful energy 🤍🤍🤍

In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.

Full Moon in Virgo

February 22nd, 2024

Or how to get emotional clarity and decipher physical signals!

William Farlow for Unsplash

On February 24th, at 12.30 GMT, the Sun in Pisces at 5° will oppose the Moon in Virgo at the same exact degree and form a Full Moon in Virgo.

The Pisces/Virgo axis represents emotional and physical health and the idea that when we merge a healthy emotional body with a healthy physical body, we can reach our soul and its wisdom.

So it may be very well the quest we have to start under this Full Moon! With Mercury, the Sun, Saturn and Neptune in Pisces, our feelings are under the spotlight: where do we feel limited or constrained? Where do we hold resistance? What is preventing us to go with flow of our inner self and guidance?

The Moon in Virgo is here to assist us in our journey towards wisdom. Any emotional signal can be felt in the body and this is exactly what will be highlighted with this Full Moon. Do we have any pain or tightness in our body? Is it related to frustration, perfectionnism, anger or impatience? Is there some energetical blockage that takes shape as pain or stiffness in our physical body?

The most significant question is: What do we need to release?

Once we tune in to ourselves and pinpoint any resistance, the road opens, the water flows and we can experience more ease. This is essential to unlock our true power under this Full Moon, if we flow with life and its elements, we can embody change, hope and success!

Pluto, Mars and Venus in Aquarius are reminding us that profound transformation, actions and self-worth are intricately linked and that an electrical impulse is carried more swiftly and powerfully in flowy waters. In other words, once our emotional and physical bodies are cleansed, we are wired to receive inspiration, genius ideas and even otherworldly knowledge.

This Full Moon in Virgo is truly inviting us to do a big cleanse so we can become empowered and successful.

Sending you lots of healing and pure energy and lots of love 🤍✨🤍

Full Moon in Cancer

Or how to nurture our sense of belonging!

On December 27th, at 00:32 GMT, the Sun at 4° of Capricorn will oppose the Moon at 4° of Cancer, gifting us a beautiful Full Moon in Cancer.

The Moon is in its home sign in emotional and nurturing Cancer and its energy will be felt quite strongly for everybody. Feelings are likely to be intensified and with the festive season and the family reunions, emotions may run high.

A Full Moon is always shining bright on what we need to see clearly and perhaps to let go of for our highest good. In Cancer, the highlight is definitely on home and family matters, our roots and ancestry and of course all the dysfunctional patterns that may come with this package! Under this Full Moon, we are invited to reflect on our sense of belonging and to learn to nurture aspects of it that make us feel great and empowered while giving up on toxicity. Belonging doesn’t mean sacrifice, people pleasing or control, but rather the comfort of knowing we have a place in this world and that we matter.

The Sun in Capricorn seems like a thread of wisdom in the emotional tides of the Cancerian Moon. Family, relationships or comfort require patience and dedication. The Sea Goat reminds us to stay grounded and take small steps towards our dream home, family and relationships life. The trine between the Sun in Capricorn and Jupiter in Taurus helps us find comfort with ease and love more than effort and hard work. And the sextile between the Sun and Saturn in Pisces acts like a memo: we know how it feels like when we don’t set healthy boundaries, so let us work on that and everything will be in the flow! The trine between the Moon in Cancer and Saturn in Pisces reinforces that idea that boundaries are physical, energetic, mental and emotional. If a situation is too much to handle, take a break and retreat. Saturn in Pisces is here to make us find tools that work for our own situation/environment or even personality.

The emphasis of this Full Moon in clearly on emotions and how we can nurture ourselves and take care of our feelings. Neptune in Pisces is square Mercury and Mars both in Sagittarius so our thoughts and actions may not reflect properly how we feel about something. There is a strong message here to do the internal work first, the rest will follow later!

It might be tense to navigate these energies while being in the middle of the festive season but it is also a great opportunity to focus on the positive in our lives and to nurture good feeling thoughts and situations.

Wishing you all a beautiful Full Moon and sending light and loving energy to everyone in this time and space reality 🌠🤍🎆

Full Moon in Gemini

Or how flexibility helps us navigate uncertainty!

Natalya Ukolova for Unsplah

On November 27th at 09:16 GMT, the Sun sits opposite the Moon at 4° 51′ in the sign of Gemini, giving us a nebulous Full Moon in Gemini.

A Full Moon usually makes our emotions very potent and sometimes all over the place and in Gemini it also enhances our mental energy. Ideas could be appearing fast (and disappearing as quickly as they came) and decisions could be rushed if we don’t look at a situation from every possible angle.

The Sun and Mars are in a lose conjunction in Sagittarius, boosting our optimism, expanding our adventurous side and obviously adding a spoonful of recklessness to the mix. With 5 planets in Mutable signs, the energy of this lunation fluctuates like the branches of a tree in the breeze. One moment we feel ready for any challenge and endeavour, the next we doubt ourselves and our plans. In true Gemini fashion, duality is at its peak and adaptability is required to approach any situation. Being flexible in our ideas and allowing things to unravel a bit differently from what we had envisionned is a much needed strength now.

On the Gemini/Sagittarius axis, the lessons are all about finding the right balance in perspective. When Gemini gets lost in the amount of information to find, Sagittarius offers focus and essential keypoints to direct the research/gathering of data and when Sagittarius plays the self-righteous judge, Gemini helps opening the mind to other concepts and beliefs. This equilibrium is necessary under this lunation and we might see ourselves oscillating between truths and beliefs, between uncertainty and assurance. Both the Sun in Sagittarius and the Moon in Gemini are squaring Saturn in Pisces: no matter the dream, the idea or the project, we need structure, organisation and patience (the latter being quite difficult to cultivate for Gemini and Sagittarius!). Time is not an enemy but rather a tool to grow and progress, let’s not rush towards the future and let’s bask a little longer in the now. Again, flexibility and adaptability (towards a plan, a structure and time management) are great skills.

At the time of the Full Moon, Mercury in Sagittarius is squaring Neptune in Pisces and this creates a hazy mist around the information we receive, the way we analyse the pieces of the puzzle and communicate. Once again, decisions shall be made with wisdom and understanding: all that is seen or felt may not be true.

May clarity shine upon you under this Full Moon ✨🤍

Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Taurus

Or how to reach closure and move on!

Anomaly for Unsplash

On October 28th 2023, at 20:23 GMT, a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse at 5° of Taurus will take place.

Full Moons always bring culmination, closure and then release and this particular one happens to be a partial lunar eclipse so we can expect to close a chapter for good (whether we want it or not). This is also the last eclipse on the financial/economic axis Taurus/Scorpio until 2040!

This Full Moon Lunar Eclipse highlights a permanent change in the way we see abundance, money and how we measure self-worth. The Moon is conjunct Jupiter and this aspect is likely to expand and create an explosion of emotions and feelings (many of them are related to self-value). With 5 planets in Water signs, emotions are once again emphasised and I feel like this eclipse acts as a deep purifying ritual. As always with intense feelings and energy, grounding is required. The Moon in Taurus finds stillness and healing in calm and soothing activities.

Emotions are running high for sure and another aspect to consider is the conjunction between the Sun, Mars and Mercury in Scorpio. This gives intensity and power to our words and actions, sometimes to the point where they become tough, harsh and tactless. It’s essential to communicate with thoughtfulness and to think before saying harsh truths.

At the time of the Full Moon, 6 planets are in fixed signs, displaying a lot of determination but also stubbornness and attachement to what is. This firmness and this strength of character are very useful but can become an obstacle when an eclipse occurs: some situations, people or elements will disappear or cease to resonate with our personal path, this is the rule with such a lunation! Letting go is a big theme and it can be a difficult exercise. Journaling, meditating, drawing are tools to help us deal with this intensity and to call for more flexibility into our lives.

Some positive aspects during the Full Moon can help and support our collective growth. Saturn in Pisces forms a trine to the Sun in Scorpio, easing our way towards improvement and introspection. Pluto and Uranus are in a trine aspect as well, giving us the will and the impetus to implement a change for the better in our thought patterns and coping mechanisms. A new way of understanding the situation could prove extremely useful!

Intensity, emotionality but also release are enhanced with this lunation, if possible, take some quiet ‘me time’.

Wishing you big happy changes that lead to serenity 🤍💫

Super Full Moon in Aquarius

Or how to blend grounding and heart space with purpose and vision!

Jeremy Bishop on Unsplash

On August 1st, 2023 at 18:31 GMT, the Moon at 9° of Aquarius will be opposing the Sun at 9° of Leo giving us a creative and visionary Super Full Moon in Aquarius.

A Super Full Moon highlights what we must see, feel or think about whether we want it or not. There’s always an idea of truth or authenticity associated with a Full Moon. Aquarius is the sign of the collective, humanity, evolution and rebellion. The higher mind and higher consciousness, the need to see the big picture and to think unconventionally are all part of this Full Moon. Where are we heading to collectively? What could help us go further and evolve? What do we like or dislike in our current society and what changes could we implement to improve the system we live in?

The Sun in Leo is an essential player in this lunation. It represents the heart energy, the heart space and the ego. How do I feel among people? How can I contribute to society as an individual? Where could I bring more love and compassion? When chaos or fear are surrounding us, we must always reconnect to our heart, the place where the truth lives.

With many planets in earth signs, the energy of grounding is strong. The chart of this Full Moon feels quite electric and eclectic and even though it fits Aquarius energy pretty well, it also brings frenzy and disruptive energy to our reality. This is why grounding and slowing down are so necessary with this Super Full Moon. A trine between Jupiter in Taurus and Mars in Virgo reminds us to stay optimistic and to have faith: a good organisation before taking action creates lucky opportunities and paves the way towards a better future.

Doubts could appear during this lunation as Mercury in Virgo opposes Saturn in Pisces. This aspect creates mental exhaustion, brainfog and self-doubt. That’s why, once again, we need to go back to the heart (Leo) and to have healthy anchor points (Earth signs) in our daily life.

Realities are shifting, energies are expanding and spiritual downloads are quite possible with this Super Full Moon and the Lion’s gate portal!

Super Full Moon in Capricorn

July 1st, 2023
Or how perseverance and wisdom are of the essence!

Neom on Unsplash

On July 3rd 2023, at 11.38 GMT, the Moon at 11° of Capricorn will be opposing the Sun at 11° of Cancer giving us a very intuitive yet pragmatic Super Full Moon.

A Full Moon always implies strong emotions and intensity and is often associated with recklessness and impatience. This one hits differently, the Sun in Cancer is all about facing and nurturing our emotional side and the Moon in Capricorn feels like acknowledging our inner wisdom and receiving insight in solitude. This is a very perceptive Full Moon that invites us to reflect on our needs (both practical and emotional) but also to take inspired action towards our goals. Capricorn represents both the end of the year and the Winter Solstice but also the beginning of the calendar year (and its resolutions). The sea goat and timing are intrinsically linked and as scary as it seems, it’s also very valuable: time is a powerful ally in our quest to achieve our dreams and it can help us improve gradually.

Saturn, the ruler of this Full Moon is moving through the sign of Pisces and infuses this lunation with mysticism, spirituality and imagination. What we can see in our mind and believe with our soul is what we can manifest. Different realities and paradigms are shifting and yet we need a good dose of pragmatism to navigate these tides gracefully and not lose ourselves.

This Full Moon is well aspected, there’s a trine with expansive and lucky Jupiter (and it’s giving miracles vibes and optimism boost) and a sextile with Saturn which brings support and structure. Some elements are still a work in progress, especially with Chiron in Aries in the equation: we still have room to grow and improve the way we deal with frustration and delays.

How is this Super Full Moon playing out in our lives? Check you big 3 (Sun, Moon and Ascendant signs) for insight!
- Aries: public status, legacy, career and ambition
- Taurus: belief system, travels, religions and higher education
- Gemini: sexuality, intimacy, shared resources
- Cancer: partnerships, contracts, law, marriage and divorce
- Leo: physical health and routine, work habits, pets
- Virgo: fun activities, passion, romance and kids
- Libra: home and root, ancestry, maternal figures
- Scorpio: information and communication, social activities, siblings
- Sagittarius: personal money and salary, self value, material things
- Capricorn: appearance, how others see you, persona
- Aquarius: secrets, subconscious, spirituality, hidden patterns
- Pisces: hopes and dreams, future plans, technology

Full Moon in Sagittarius

Or how to expand our cosmic consciousness!

Photo by Andy Holmes from Unsplash

On June 4, 2023 at 03:41 GMT, the Sun at 13° of Gemini will be in direct opposition to the Moon at 13° of Sagittarius and we will have a lucky Full Moon in Sagittarius.

The Gemini/Sagittarius axis is all about information, communication, learning, social activities, the higher mind, philosophy, big adventures and expansion of knowledge. Both signs are known for being quick (in wit and pace) being mutable air and fire. These themes are highlighted with this lunation but there’s a lot more to it!

The Moon is close to the Galactic Centre (at approximately 27° of Sagittarius) and in alignment with the Great Attractor, an intense and quite mystical point in astrology. These alignments emphasize the idea of cosmic consciousness and the fact that we are all connected as beings on Earth but also on different timelines and planets. The sign of the Archer wants to aim high and expand and this is very likely to occur in the way we envision life. Looking at the bigger picture and having a macroscosmic view of all things is quite relevant at this time.

The ruler of Sagittarius, Jupiter, is now in Taurus and adds on to the themes of beliefs and communication by highlighting the concept of worth and value (both personal and collective). What do we want to build for the future/long term? What should we take into account? Do we have all the pieces of information we need to proceed?

Jupiter is also forming a sextile with Saturn in Pisces, inviting us to move away or zoom out from our 3D reality and try to embrace the streams of energetic updates of the galaxies. The Moon is forming a trine to Chiron, the wounded healer and this, to me, is a lucky opportunity to transmute old failures and past hurts into wisdom and self-expansion.

This Full Moon is helping us see where we’ve been acting too small or feeling too stuck in life chores and habits and she wants us to feel whole and part of the cosmic realms. It’s a time to dream big, act upon it and acknowledge our real qualities and assets. It’s a time to evolve and receive insight from the Universe, Source, Cosmic Intelligence or whatever you want to call it.

May this Full Moon bring everyone lots of wisdom, insight and opportunities to feel whole and alive 🤍
