MOVEMENT OF THE MOON
The Moon passes through your Zodiac Sign 1-2 times per month. Because La Luna affects your moods and emotions you may find that your feelings are more sensitive when she is in your sector of the zodiac. Your instincts are intensified at this time, and you are at your most intuitive and imaginative. Read more about the Movement of The Moon
29 September-1 October MOON IN VIRGO trine Ceres & Pluto in Capricorn, opposing Saturn & Neptune in Pisces, square Jupiter in Gemini, trine Uranus in Taurus.
This lunar mood could irritate an irrational obsession with having every inch of life hyper-organised. The urge to control everything is, of course, totally unrealistic and impossible to fulfil. You might need to take time out for some serious self-reassurance. Please remember that learning curves in how to manage expectations and cope with criticism were carefully written into your Soul Plan before you embarked on your current Earth-plane adventure.
1-4 October MOON IN LIBRA conjunct South Node, Sun (New Moon) & Mercury in Libra, square Ceres & Pluto in Capricorn, square Mars in Cancer, trine Jupiter in Gemini, opposing North Node, Chiron & Eris in Aries.
A lack of trust in your own creative powers forces you into trying too hard. Instead of being able to trip lightly along your life path with a song in your heart, you are burdened by the urge to meet expectations that are not yours to fulfil. It is time to tune into what you truly wish to accomplish. Once you have chosen a goal that really resonates with you, everything becomes easier.
2 October 2024 NEW MOON IN LIBRA (Annular Solar Eclipse)
This is the right time to initiate a new basis for partnership projects. You are looking to collaborate on fifty-fifty equal shares terms, with both parties balancing the amount they give and take. There must be absolutely no feelings of resentment from one side towards the other, as this could create the kind of sub-conscious competition which causes animosity and prevents ongoing mutual agreement. The individual roles of everyone involved must be clearly defined, with regular reviews to ensure that peace and harmony continue to reign over your endeavours. The solar eclipse could empower your ability to create the kind of win/win scenarios which satisfy all concerned because there is a sense that everyone has been treated fairly due to their individual wants and needs being taken into consideration.
Because this New Moon is positioned between the South Node and Mercury in Libra it is important to remember that you have on-demand, instant access to an inter-dimensional archive of valuable information inherited from your ancestors. If you are struggling to make a choice or decide which way to go, call on the previous generations in your gene pool to point you in the right direction.
4-6 October MOON IN SCORPIO trine Saturn & Neptune in Pisces, conjunct Venus in Scorpio, trine Mars in Cancer, opposing Uranus in Taurus
You could be a powerful force within partnerships, particularly in situations where you and/or the person you are involved with are going through some type of transition or evolutionary change. You might be filling a therapeutic role where your energy and insight inspire transformation, regeneration and rebirth.
6-9 October MOON IN SAGITTARIUS trine North Node, Chiron & Eris in Aries, square Saturn & Neptune in Pisces, opposing Jupiter in Gemini
Rather than running away in an effort to avoid the lessons to be learned from facing your fears it is better to take your courage in both hands and confront the situation, however scary it may seem. Your bravery provides the bridge that will carry you across troubled waters to a higher plane of consciousness.
9-11 October MOON IN CAPRICORN square North Node, Chiron & Eris in Aries, conjunct Ceres & Pluto in Capricorn, square South Node, Sun & Mercury in Libra, opposing Mars in Cancer, trine Uranus in Taurus
Your ability to work creatively with challenging situations proves how resourceful you really are. These tough times mark key turning points in your Soul Plan. They are designed to test your commitment to achieving the potentials you were born to fulfil. You are learning that determination rather than deadlines is the best force to drive your progress forward.
11-13 October MOON IN AQUARIUS trine South Node & Sun in Libra, trine Jupiter in Gemini, square Venus in Scorpio, square Uranus in Taurus
You have everything going for you in the design department, but hypothetical theories will only take you so far. Strong emotional input is required if you want to manifest your concept in 3D reality. Your undying passion is the X-factor which empowers your ideas and turns them from abstract into actual.
13-15 October MOON IN PISCES trine Mercury & Venus in Scorpio, conjunct Saturn & Neptune in Pisces, square Jupiter in Gemini, trine Mars in Cancer
There is no limit to the scope of your imagination. When you’re in the Dreamtime, anything is possible – anytime, anywhere. Your great learning curve is to understand how to interpret multi-dimensional imagery and translate it into real life terminology so it can be communicated to all the souls who are currently incarnated on planet Earth.
15-17 October MOON IN ARIES conjunct North Node, Chiron & Eris in Aries, square Ceres & Pluto in Capricorn, opposing South Node & Sun in Libra (Full Moon), square Mars in Cancer
Your self-healing process demands a considerable amount of courage. It involves having to defeat the impression that you are being punished for reasons you cannot remember or that you are being blamed for actions you did not take. This self-pitying stance must be substituted for the assertive attitude of a Wise Wounded Warrior. You are fighting for freedom and against suffering, regardless of who created the problems in the first place.
17 October 2024 FULL MOON IN ARIES
The potential in this energy is for you to accept that you have reached some sort of winning post. At the very least, you need to impress upon yourself how brave you are to have come this far. You have achieved a lot to be where you are now and there are many more medals to be won, so take steps to stay motivated. It is vital to maintain momentum by strengthening your levels of enthusiasm and excitement. These positive emotions fuel your courage to continue and re-boot your physical stamina so there is no chance that your interest and energy start to wane.
Dwarf Planet Eris sits right beside this Full Moon and her feisty fighting spirit can help to reinforce your ability to assert your will to win, no matter how fierce the competition. In fact, rivalry could be a significant driving force behind the actions you take to hit your targets.
17-19 October MOON IN TAURUS opposing Mercury in Scorpio, trine Ceres & Pluto in Capricorn, conjunct Uranus in Taurus
You are in a great place, anticipating rich rewards for the resolve and resourcefulness you have contributed thanks to your natural talents and abilities. But a negative mindset could sabotage your success. Under no circumstances should you allow destructive thoughts to prevent you from accepting the honours that await you.
19-21 October MOON IN GEMINI opposing Venus in Sagittarius, trine South Node & Sun in Libra, square Saturn & Neptune in Pisces, conjunct Jupiter in Gemini
There is huge potential for personal growth, provided you are able to surmount the shady spectres of doubt and fear. Set your sights high but try to manage expectations so you don’t anticipate results you are not yet ready to deliver. Like a student at the start of a new semester, you will need time to settle into each new set of circumstances you encounter.
21-24 October MOON IN CANCER square North Node, Chiron & Eris in Aries, trine Saturn & Neptune in Pisces, trine Mercury in Scorpio, opposing Ceres & Pluto in Capricorn, conjunct Mars in Cancer
You are in a deeply productive phase, but there could be some painful periods in the process of giving birth to your oeuvre d’art. You may have to delve into hurtful memories in order to expose the raw emotions which fuel your creative drive and add power to the process that takes you from seed stage to fruition.
24-26 October MOON IN LEO square Sun & Mercury in Scorpio, trine North Node, Chiron & Eris in Aries, trine Venus in Sagittarius, square Uranus in Taurus
You must believe that life always has your best interests at heart. Through the harshest of tests and the toughest of times your light shines bright. Take pride in the knowledge that you are a highly beloved, irreplaceable Child of the Cosmos – so special you have a value all your own.
26-29 October MOON IN VIRGO square Venus in Sagittarius, opposing Saturn & Neptune in Pisces, trine Ceres & Pluto in Capricorn, square Jupiter in Gemini, trine Uranus in Taurus
It is vital that you stay committed to the goals you have been working on for some time. Feel free to update and adapt your plans but please do not abandon them. Doubts, fears, distractions and temptations must not be allowed to throw you off course. They exist only to test your resilience and resolve to carry on climbing until you reach the top!
29-31 October MOON IN LIBRA conjunct South Node in Libra, square Ceres & Pluto in Capricorn, opposing North Node, Chiron & Eris in Aries, trine Jupiter in Gemini, square Mars in Cancer
If you are feeling over-awed by the apparent steepness of the climb which lies ahead of you, please remember that help is always at hand. The ancestors, angels, wise guides and other members of your soul plane entourage are available 24/7 to assist your progress as you travel along your life path. No degree of difficulty will prevent them from answering your call, but you are the one who has to make it. They cannot intervene in your earthly existence unless you invite them to do so.
