Week Commencing November 23 ,2020
**All days and times are AEST
It is now officially Sagittarius Season, which brings with it a shift in energy this week. This is coupled with Neptune going direct after a long retrograde as well as the Moon growing fuller as we head towards the next Full Moon and the start of eclipse season. The week brings lots of opportunities for us to really get aligned in our thinking and actions. Let’s take a closer look at what to expect from the energy and mood this week.
First Quarter Moon in Pisces
The week begins with the Moon in its First Quarter phase in the sign of intuitive and creative Pisces where it joins Neptune which is currently in its home sign of Pisces. Pisces Moons are a good opportunity to tap into your intuition and to really feel into what it is that you need to feel your best emotionally, mentally and physically.
Put pen to paper and let your thoughts flow in response to these questions…
What do you most desire?
What do you need to let go of to bring more of what you want into your life?
Do you need to make better boundaries with yourself and with others?
Pisces Moons are always great for getting creative and artistic, and to do self-care that revolves around water- go for a swim or a dip in the ocean. Also take time out to listen to your intuition and to visualise what it is you most desire. Use the Align essential oil blend from the Yoga Collection to help with this. If you find that your personal boundaries are being tested and that it’s difficult to see things clearly with the Moon in Pisces, then use Clove essential oil, or a blend like OnGuard which contains Clove.
Waxing Gibbous Moon in Aries
On Wednesday the Waxing Gibbous Moon moves into action-oriented Aries. This phase of the lunar cycle is one where our energy has increased and it’s a good time for networking and getting social. The fiery Aries vibes will help you with staying focussed on your goals and what you want to manifest and will help to give you the courage you need to pursue things even if they seem a bit scary or difficult.
Use the Aries Waxing Gibbous energies to do some decluttering and space clearing and with Aries ruling our head, it’s a good time to also do a facial or have a head and back massage as part of your physical self-care. The citrus essential oils such as Lemon, Wild Orange and Bergamot can all help with focus. Put a 1-2 drops of Lemon in your hands, rub and inhale before doing any work or study to help restore your energy, your mental ability and to complement the Aries drive to complete any projects you are working on.
Waxing Gibbous Moon in Taurus
On Friday afternoon after a few hours void-of-course Moon in the middle of the day, the Waxing Gibbous Moon moves into earthy and grounded Taurus. This is when you should review the intentions and goals that you set on the New Moon and to take time to really reflect on what you have done and what you can refocus your energies on achieving before the Full Moon. This time is all about alignment and making adjustments if necessary.
Your creative energies will most likely peak at this time, but don’t push things too much and make sure you get enough sleep. Taurus loves the good things in life, so take time out to indulge and really rest. Watch something fun on Netflix and take pleasure in doing things that feel indulgent. Also spend time outside in nature over the weekend. Diffuse some Aromatouch to really help you to relax into the Taurus energy.
The Moon will be opposite Uranus which could cause feelings of insecurity or allow limiting beliefs to slip in. As we build up to the Gemini Full Moon which is all about communication, if you notice negative thoughts creeping in, especially with being and feeling authentic, then make a note of these to release on the Full Moon in a ritual I will share next week.
Preparation for the Full Moon and Penumbral Eclipse in Gemini
Get ready on Sunday for the Full Moon and Penumbral Eclipse in Gemini which will be exact at 8:29am on Monday. I will share more about the Full Moon next week but do prepare for doing release and forgiveness work and to do things to support you in your work that are intellectual or technical to harness the Gemini energies.
