/Full Moon Phase: realization, illumination
Moon in Aquarius
Tzolkin: 12 Ahau (a day where we get wise)
Skill: tread carefully; watch your words; gauge situations; keep emotions in check
True Alignments: patience, elevated consciousness, organized, agreeing to terms, guardianship, true motivations shown, reaching out, pacing yourself
Catalysts for Change: pressure cooker situations, doing things the hard way, bossy, uptight, making a show or having a tantrum, illness from pent up emotions, out of bounds
Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Month: “a clown caricaturing well-known personalities” (exaggeration in order to show truth)
Sabian Symbol for the Solar-Lunar Year: “fairies dancing in the setting Sun” (sunset on the control systems)
Today’s energies may be a little tricky to navigate because, as the day progresses, emotions begin to build.
Mercury has returned to 01 Leo, “under emotional stress, blood rushes to a man’s head.” Mercury was discharging this degree June 26-27, before it went retrograde. Things that were in play then may come back on the scene today. Road rage often comes with Mercury at this degree.
Adding to that is the Sun discharging “a violent storm in a canyon filled with expensive homes.” Turbulent energy accompanies this symbol. Confrontations, arguments, and emotional reactions can become extreme. This is happening during a month where things are already extreme, so we want to “skim lightly” to stay above storminess.
Today also has us on a path that leads to discovering something or gaining an answer, which is one of the main themes this month. The Earth is discharging “a mountain pilgrimage,” so we want to stay the course, no matter how rocky or emotionally-turbulent things get.
Venus is discharging “a priest performing a marriage ceremony,” which brings themes of loyalty, commitment, and unity. It is a great day for teamwork, unless issues are bubbling under the surface. In which case, the energy will bring out things that need to be addressed before things can move forward. Revelations come hard and fast when this Sabian symbol is activated during a Full Moon phase. Truth outs.
This evening, the Moon may stir up emotions like disappointment, disillusionment, discouragement, and feelings of failure. These feelings may be exaggerated, but, like all things this month, they are exaggerated to help us see truth. The truth is we are not failures. We are on a journey of discovery that is marked by trial and error. Be kind to yourself. Just look at what is trying to be revealed to you. It will set your “pilgrimage” on better footing.
So today we will avoid stormy canyons by keeping our emotions in check and maintaining course. We will not let the energy get the better of us. We will see what it is all trying to show us. Wisdom let us attend.
