This could be by far one of the most challenging Full Moon aspects of the year. There is a chance that resistance, hopes, dreams, anger, disappointment, irritation, inspiration will all be triggered. It is a full circus, a crisis of thought, choice and will. What will you do with it? We always say it is much better to move towards something you want than against something you don’t.

The resistance percolating within each of us is strong and stubborn and needs to be turned towards inspiration and positive choice. Change what you can and accept what you can’t. We also suggest you stay away from arguments and negative encounters fueled by anger.

The underlying foundation of this time is the powerful presence of the feminine and anything related to the relationship with the feminine. Issues around nurturing, support, whether we were loved by our mothers, whether we deserve to be fully embraced and fed, whether we fear the power of this energy, may surface in each of us depending on where our issues lie. It is time to heal this love/hate relationship with the feminine and fully step into the container of support it can provide.

The other day (among other irritating things) my dishwasher began to leak and my garbage disposal froze. After a few minutes of words I will not write, an insight hit me. When was the last time I “fed” my appliances? The Huichol (indigenous from Mexico) tradition includes a strong relationship with the feminine idea of “feeding ones tools” to keep them happy and working. I know that! SO they both received a song, and a little tobacco (and a little help from a wrench). I moved from anger and irritation into compassion and nurturing. All is well and working just fine now.

This moon time encourages us to face crisis by turning challenges into opportunities. The gift of any challenging time is how you navigate it. When there is energetic crisis, it will often manifest in the more solid aspects of your life, your physical environment and your body, especially your bones and teeth. I encourage you to spend a little time during this full moon to be proactive in nurturing your own relationship with the feminine, “feeding your tools”, and being in nature with presence and focus. Harness the power of this moon to feed you own goals and desires. Look to what you wish to create instead of what you resist.

Blessings,

Lena

FULL MOON IN TAURUS

Sun in Scorpio ~ Moon in Taurus 1º

Wed, October 24, 10:45 AM Mountain Daylight Time

(Wed, October 24, 4:45 PM Greenwich Mean Time)

How does the cosmos do it? How does it align the Full Moon axis exactly across the axis of the North/South Nodes when they are in the very last degree before it changes signs?!! Only a divine cosmic (comic) force could create this one, knowing exactly the pressure we need to further our transformative journey. The Full Moon in Taurus is aligned with Uranus, The Awakener, opposite the Scorpio Sun aligned with Venus. This forms a Grand Square with the Nodes in Leo/ Aquarius 1º all in fixed signs. Our most locked in patterns will be presented for our viewing pleasure. Well, like is said, ‘Crisis or Opportunity?’. The intensification of polarity is a given. With seven out of 10 planets in fixed signs there is great determination, strong will, and uncompromising resistance being played out. One will need to be calm, restrained and not be drawn into dramatic behaviors. Those we resist can be seen as our teachers. Can you muster gratitude to find yourself revealed in this form? Even the strongest among us will be pulled into this growth vortex. How we respond will be the ‘opportunity’. Those with planets in the early degrees of the fixed signs (Taurus-Scorpio, Leo-Aquarius) will feel it most acutely.

"The full moon on Thursday, October 25, 2018 at 3:45:00 am, at 1° Taurus joins the planet Uranus. Therefore the Full Moon October 2018 astrology is about change, excitement and uncertainty, especially in relationships. Venus opposite Uranus focuses the change and uncertainty on love relationships but also your finances.

The October 2018 full moon makes a more helpful aspect to Saturn which moderates the erratic and impulsive nature of Uranus. It turns unexpected changes into opportunities and relationship uncertainty into reassurance and commitment.The fixed stars joining the October 24 full moon also bring a mix of problems and solutions. So Uranus with full moon October 2018 may bring unexpected love but will also show the vulnerabilities in your love life and finances. Saturn brings practical solutions that lead to greater security and stability." Jamie Partridge

*NEW MOON* in Libra asks us to honor that which abides within, as we restructure how we move in the world of relationships.

It’s been a time of unearthing, sensing and deep feeling.

There has been much upheaval as Truth rises to be acknowledged.

More than ever we must remember that nothing goes unseen and our truth will always be a beacon when we stand in our integrity.

We are in relationship with every single thing in our lives, and each relationship is our sacred mirror of Reflection.

This is a powerful time of integration that serves as a catalyzing moment in our Soul’s journey to wholeness.

We must be loving with ourselves during this time and find the time to connect deeply with our Soul.

Here are the MYSTIC MAMMA Astral Insights from our beloved featured guiding lights.

PAT LILES from The Power Path.com says:

“Venus naturally rules Libra’s New Moon cycle…Venus is presently in Scorpio and retrograde.

“She’s empowered, going for inner truth, available for transformative experience.

“Venus in Scorpio is in the most powerful of the feeling-based water signs willing to go deeper into what motivates us, what is hidden, what is stagnant, what is called from the depths to be transformed.

“The path to awakening holds an early gate that all must pass through, the gate of self love, where we value the unique one we are, finding and holding our own internal integrity replacing what we were given by family and culture.

“Self Love is the foundation for love with another, the key to successful partnership and collaboration.

This is an important moon for anchoring balance, grounding, and receiving the support of your allies. If you are in the place of ambivalence around a decision, you could gain some emotional clarity around issues you have been trying too hard to “think through”

It is important to take some time around this New Moon and focus on balance. It may mean taking some things that do not serve you off your plate and replacing them with some things that will serve you better. As you take inventory of your life at this time, ask yourself where you could use more support and help. Set some intentions to receive the support you need from the allies and the helpers that can give it.

FULL MOON in Aries heightens our emotions bringing our heat to the fore. Our inner fire is our sacred gift to be used wisely to activate our life force into good use that inspires, warms and illuminates.

But when it’s not rightly tended to, it can become a destructive force that devastates and consumes. Our job is to learn to work with our fire, to tend to it, like we would a small child that needs attention and let it speak to us about our innermost passion and needs, so we can shift to serve them.

Let’s use the power of this Full Moon wisely, by allowing it to light us up from within, so that we can emanate and transmit its creative force and allow its warmth and passion to draw our tribe near.

Here are the MYSTIC MAMMA Astral Insights from our beloved featured guiding lights.

The wise CATHY PAGANO shares:

“It’s going to be an initiation and a stretch for us to listen to the voice of our soul rather than the chaotic voices of our world…

“While the solar cycle starts in March/April with the Sun in Aries and impels us to find out who I am, the Aries lunar cycle begins in August/September with the question, who am I in relationship with others?

“…The storyline for each Aries Full Moon is the Libra mystery: how do you and I compliment each other?

“How well do we fit together? How do we achieve some kind of balance between me and my desires, and you and your desires?

“…This Full Moon’s energy is enhanced by Mercury and Ceres in Libra, Chiron Rx in Aries and Saturn and Vesta in Capricorn…

“These three planetary energies are engaged in a new birth – a new way of being grounded in the Self yet opened to the Other, nurtured by Ceres’ spiritual realities and Mercury’s inner visualization…

“With Chiron retrograde conjunct the Aries Moon, we can either spend our time being re-traumatized by our old wounds or finally free of them.

“And free to start a new life with Aries courage and leadership.

“We call Chiron the wounded healer because in the myth, he was wounded by a poisoned arrow and, being immortal, couldn’t die. But before his wound, Chiron was the mentor of heroes.

“And that’s his function now if we let him mentor us into a true sense of who we are that doesn’t take away from who the other is.

“If we take up our archetypal identity, our deep soul identity, Chiron can mentor us so we do become the person we’re meant to be.

“And integrating our Aries emotional body with the conscious Libra Sun, Mercury and Ceres, we can become the hero/heroine of our own story.

“And that story includes our purpose in the world and for the world…
