The Lantern

The week of Sept 6- Sept 11 2022 opens with the Moon moving through the two Saturn ruled signs of Capricorn and Aquarius.

Mercury stations retrograde, so get ready for delays, miscommunication, technology issues and just general annoyances.

The Full Moon in Pisces occurs and connects with Uranus retrograde in Taurus. This is a moment of fantasy and the unexpected. Where we seem to be lost in wonderland after being too logical and literal with everything.

The Moon then moves into Aries and almost immediately joins Jupiter, then moves to oppose Mercury retrograde. We want to have fun, but something is delaying that from happening.

The themes for this week are responsibility, delays and teleporting into Wonderland. Responsibility knocks and if we answer in a timely manner, we have an opportunity to have fun at the end of the week. Delays and general annoyances ARE going to happen, stay patient and calm. At the end of the week the Full Moon celebration continues with big and grand events. Try and not get too caught up in the festivities of life and remember when the party is over.

Finding a sense of peace in the chaos and incorporating everything that needs to be done all while not feeling completely overwhelmed. Others may seem like they have all the solutions, making for some overwhelm with all the “snake oils” out there. And some weeks are just like that. All parties cant be happy all the time, there is always someone feeling discomfort. Life starts to pick up some speed and it seems like there is just a lot on our plate after putting it on the back burner. Time to roll up your sleeves and get to work in order to prepare for the coming months.

And finally Venus opposes Saturn as she finishes up her journey through Leo.

This week brings up feelings of preparing for the end of something. There is a feeling of change in the air and we are in between the final stages of the old and moving into new circumstances. The challenge arises with social obligations to belong to a group mindset. Keep the mind sharp this week and find the courage to speak up when something doesn’t follow common logic. Criticism doesn’t always have to be a negative thing, use it constructively.

The wild and weird come out to make themselves seen this week, don’t be afraid to embrace that side of you.

The week of August 2-August 8 2022 starts off with Mars moving away from the exact conjunction with Uranus and the North Node in Taurus, which means we will still be feeling this transit this week.

Mercury returns to its home and exaltation sign of Virgo making it easier to be practical and rational, giving us the ability to look at the micro in the macro.

Venus moves away from Neptune and opposes Pluto, causing a stress point in love.

Sometimes there are great treasures in what seems to be a very impulsive or rash decision.

It feels like we are at a busting point, where something is going to have to explode or implode. Remembering to stay grounded within your body and remain grateful for the life you have created will help bring some ease to the chaos.
