Full Moon in Gemini - 1:28 AM PST

The full moon has been a culmination of a reformatting of energies in the universe. Technology has been especially affected by the whirlwind of energies as they are reintegrating into a new matrix of reality. Sun activity, in particular eclipses, have begun to rewire how the energies will be experienced and processed. You might have noticed technology glitches such as software errors, computers breaking down, cell phones not working correctly, voice-mails being lost, online calendars losing appointments, etc.

The full moon tonight might not resolve all of this reality glitches, but you might notice technology easing back into reality. If you continue to experience issues, then you might want to find ways to anchor the energies at home or at your office through the use of stones or gemstones. For example, obsidian can help anchor and absorb excessive energy while quartz can theoretically use the excessive energy to power new intentions. Whatever you choose to do with the new energies, be intentional--being passive can lead to undesirable outcomes.

The moon in Gemini will be in opposition with the sun in Sagittarius. Gemini is a sacred dance between two aspects of the self, and the balance of these aspects is crucial to a healthy twin--especially understanding the light and the dark within us all. In this current dance, you need to contemplate how your communication with others affects you, the people closest to you, and the world in which you live. A time to know when to speak your truth, and a time to listen to the truths of others. Gemini helps us take information and put it into immediate use, while Sagittarius collects a library of knowledge in pursuit of future dreams. You need to balance meeting the needs of your immediate environment and world while not losing sight of your bigger dreams. The full moon is helping you focus on any barriers to what is going on now, so you can focus on what dreams you will manifest later.

New Moon in Libra: October 4th, 2013 at 5:34 PM PST

With sun and moon both in the sign of Libra, the energies of the celestial bodies certainly seem geared toward manifesting balance within our relationships without losing our sense of self. Librans understand who they are through the eyes of others because they intuitively strive to balance the energies of other people. Librans personify the idea of a psychological mirror because they reflect the reverse image of the person before them.

Unfortunately, sometimes they become so effective at mirroring they will become whoever will do the best job at balancing the energies of the other person. How do you know if this is happening? The answer is when there is an absence of overt conflict, but the presence of some underlying tension. They might be unhappy, but they will smile as they continue to sacrifice what they want in order to maintain the energetic peace. Aries is the astrological polar opposite of Libra, which means the lesson of Libra is acknowledging and validating the self. Librans come into their power when they honor what they truly need and want and seeing that their relationships do not have to suffer.


The moon will be in opposition to Uranus and square Pluto, which translates to "This is a lot easier said than done." You will experience internal, as well as external, resistance to creating changes that will create a healthier harmony within certain relationships. However, the energies of Saturn quincunx Uranus will prevent you from avoiding the issues and compel you to find a resolution.
 

With the coming new moon, ask yourself the question, "Am I honoring my relationships with others without sacrificing myself?" The energies will help you find balance among your many relationships while still allowing you to cultivate a relationship with your self. Fear is the biggest challenge because we struggle to believe the truth that we can have healthy relationships without sacrificing what is most important to us.

On the other side of the spectrum, take heed of the wisdom of Libra and try to see life through the eyes of the other person. Are you being too stubborn in your own way of being to contemplate other paths? Are you letting hurt stop you from empathizing and understanding someone close to you? You can learn a lot about who you are by how others respond to you as well as how you respond to others. We are all psychological mirrors for one another, and if we have the courage to look at what is being reflected, then there is no limit to who we can become.

Concise Considerations:

• Intentions focused on improving quality of interpersonal relationships are beneficial.
• Intentions focused on improving self-confidence and assertiveness are beneficial.
• Intentions focused on improving self-awareness are beneficial.
• Intentions focused on releasing unhealthy relationships are beneficial.
• Intentions focused on releasing unhealthy perceptions of self or others are beneficial.
• Intentions focused on creating new healthy relationships are beneficial.
