Did you know they were considering naming Pluto after Cronus? Rude. The dude already has a planet named after him and an ego the size of said planet so it really wasn't necessary. I can hear all the Scorpios (who Pluto rules) breathe a collective sigh of relief since we know y'all are the Daddy Issue gang. So happy Saturday! The Moon is in Aquarius in Waxing Gibbous in preparation for The Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse in Pisces at 15 Degrees on Sunday (interesting for me because I'm a Pisces Moon in 16 Degrees so this one's gonna be a doozy) Anyway you can probably feel the energy stirring, the heavy branch about to snap, the curious desire to pick up a pen and journal, pick up a guitar and sing, get your paintbrush on, cook some masterpiece. Strange and wonderful things are afoot and the Astrologers all say this is a very VERY potent time, especially for Pisces, Gemini and Virgo placements so fellow Pisces Moons, Virgos, Pisces and Virgo Risings hold onto your pearls. If you were denying your intuition or the pull to learn more about the planets, the stars, the realms and dimensions or the spiritual world in general now is the time to stop resisting. Life is life-ing so now is not the time to turn away from your higher self or the impulse to be a better version of you and that means, caring for your local community and caring about your place in it.
Now Saturn used to rule (ostensibly) Aquarius before the Astronomers realized that Uranus existed, Saturn being the last planet to be visible by the naked eye without a telescope. I do find it rather silly that they felt the Daddy Planet could tell Aquarians what to do but hey, we all make mistakes. So since the Aquarius Moon falls on Saturday (today) it does give us a little preparation for the revolution of our souls tomorrow during the Pisces Full Moon/ Lunar Eclipse. What is a Lunar Eclipse you ask? I'll let Chani field that question. But Pisces is ruled by Neptune aka Poseidon the god of Water, Dreams and Illusions. It was once thought to be ruled by Jupiter but that was once again before telescopes, when Astronomers and Astrologers made decisions based on what the naked eye could see, to this day some Astrologers still consider Pisces to be ruled by both Jupiter and Neptune which is quite lucky for Pisces placements being that it's the most psychic and intuitive sign (thanks to Neptune being dreamy and intuitive and Jupiter being the luckiest most auspicious planet.)
What can you do to prepare for the Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse in Pisces? Well, lighting some candles and reflecting on areas of your life and personality that could use an upgrade couldn't hurt. Where are you kicking your own ass and where are you being the Britta Perry in your own life and HOW can you fix it?
Today's Tarot Cards are:
The Sun: Modern Goddess Tarot Deck
Astrological Association: Leo
Property: Fire
The Sun is all about shining a light on your life in whatever area needs it, it's about appreciating the good things and basking in the light of optimism however and whenever you can. You may not have everything you want yet, but the chances that you have at least something you want is likely and now is the time to celebrate that thing. Chances are you currently have something you were once praying for so why wait to celebrate that success. The Sun comes after The Tower, The Star and The Moon. After great turmoil it is a time to revel in optimism and the knowledge that there is always the possibility of something better around the corner.
