This Week in Astrology

Over the weekend the Full Moon moved into Disseminating Phase.  Our psyche started searching for earth bound, practical, facts vs feelings information.   Last Quarter moon is activated Oct 2 where emotions come back up to motivate us.  We are still working on our daily schedule and taking care of business which the Virgo lunar cycle asks of us and now on the final days of the cycle we may need our emotions to finish the issues on our To-Do list.  On 10/2 Mercury tangles with Pluto, words cut deep and thoughts are stormy before a breakthrough.    Balsamic Phase (10/5) puts the accent on releasing ego, control, braggadocio, bravado.  Even superheroes need breaks.  And on October 5 Venus begins her six week retrograde.   What about love?  What about money?  What about your values?  Watch what evolution takes place between now and when it ends Nov 16. 

Disseminating: 

Focus on:  How are you sharing your resources? How are you sharing your hard work?  How are you sharing your ability to build from the ground up?  How are you sharing your practicality?  

Last Quarter Moon Phase

October 2 2018 

5:45am   EDT

Last Quarter moon:  Now we do the final adjustments to the seeds we planted on new. The final call, the final letters to send, we follow all the trails that came up that still make sense. And we let the other parts lay fallow. It is a time of action but wise action.  It is a time for living  “The serenity prayer” 

God, grant me the Serenity
to accept the things
I cannot change Courage to change the
things I can, and the
Wisdom to know the difference.

Focus on:

When you sort through your daily schedule and activities that need actions based on emotions?  

What actions connect you to your history? What actions are you taking that speak to your roots?  What actions are you taking that speak to family? 

Special Focus:

10/2 Mercury square Pluto.  Cold harsh thoughts of power and control versus thoughts of giving up and letting go.
