There we are again. Full moon, Tuesday July 19. 

NO kidding.. The whole "Here we go again" thing is something I can relate to... I'll have to see what tidbits of info I can come up with today... but UGH!

[Anjae]

I confess that it has been a very long time since full moons bring me any sort of MLCer troubles. But the full can mess with my sleep. The last two ones didn't, but this one is doing it.

Still, a nothing compared with what some LBS have to put up from their MLCers when the moon is full.

This one is in Capricorn. I am a Capricorn, so that may have some meaning and effect. Or not.

Here you are -  Tonight's Full Moon
Let the love in and let love flow.
This is a healing and almost intoxicating full moon. While at the same time, revolutionary. Instilling us with the urge, to break free. As the revolutionary and bringer of change, the planet of Uranus forms a tense aspect (square) to the moon and the sun. Especially potent, as Uranus is finally free from the difficult square to Pluto, for the first time since 2012 and can now finally initiate sweeping changes unhindered.
Having left the past behind and starting a new chapter, we can now officially spread our wings and fly, as the full moon is supported by a wonderful kite formation with the full moon at the top, the sun in opposition and Chiron, the wounded healer and Mars in Scorpio on either side.

Mars in Scorpio will be giving us extra energy and drive after he has been locked in a stationing position the past two weeks, making him extremely simmering and broody, with many of us feeling the effects on a personal level as well as a global level.
Mars too now is breaking free, picking up speed and will enter the lighter, optimistic Sagittarius on the 2 August.

After a very intense phase the past few weeks, with Mars in Scorpio bringing deeply buried and hidden issues to the fore. Revealing certain truths since the last new moon, often involving power struggles and anger, we can now move forward and heal, as Chiron the wounded healer is making a powerful healing aspect to Mars, healing and soothing the turbulence of the recent weeks.

It’s time now, to start relaxing and having fun. As Mercury and Venus are now in the playful, joyful and fun-loving sign of Leo. It’s time to celebrate our inner joy and our inner child. It’s by keeping our inner child alive that we stay happier, healthier and younger.

Mercury in Leo is encouraging us to creative self-expression of our passions and our hearts. It’s time to have fun, to shine our light and to be unapologetically who we authentically are. Together with Leo in Venus, they are fun-loving, generous, open-hearted and entertaining. Bestowing us with an enormous power to co-create and communicate our needs in our relationships, in art and our careers. Its a wonderful time to find new love, as well as enjoying a new high, in current relationships.

With a touch of drama and exhibitionism its time to take centre stage and show the world what you are made of and shine your light. Leo loves luxury and extravagance, and it wouldn’t harm to indulge and spoil yourself a little.

Projects and relationships started now, have a good chance of long-term success and endurance. As Saturn is making a supporting trine to Mercury and Venus in Leo.

Venus and Mercury are communicating the message of love that will culminate on the full moon, 18th August, with another Venus-Mercury conjunction that will be at the top (apex) of a rare finger of God, as well as an eclipse. This will usher us into the next stage of our evolutionary development with love being the main theme.

The sun in Cancer is shining a light on the full moon in Capricorn, giving us deeper insights into our emotional world.


The moon represents our deepest emotions and our inner child. The moon is the ruler of cancer and is bringing to light how we take responsibility (Capricorn) for our emotional needs as well as those of others.

Both Cancer and Capricorn are very sensitive and often hide their vulnerability behind their protective cover. Cancer, the crab, often taking refuge beneath his hard shell and Capricorn often builds defensive walls around his sensitive heart.

Both the sun and the moon are square the revolutionary Uranus that wants to break down the walls that we have built around us. Rendering us unable to let love in and letting love flow freely. As well as tearing down the walls of limiting beliefs, fear and of not feeling worthy of love. Uranus ultimately wants to set us free, by opening our hearts

Only then can we can plug into the love that is all around us, as well as draw on the higher cosmic love, that deep down we know we are all connected too.

The Capricorn moon is helping us to build emotional strength and inner peace and security.

Capricorn often takes on to much responsibility, and duty while cancer loves to nurture, love and take care of others while often forgetting their own needs. We need to be aware of how there is an imbalance as the full moon is a time of balancing out and integrating the two opposites.
Capricorn brings up themes of how we are dedicated and committed to, the people we love, as well as to our creativity, talents and passions in life. It is only with dedication and commitment that we can build a solid foundation with lasting endurance for what matters to us most in life

A square from Saturn to the nodes of fate and to Neptune are bringing themes of truth and delusion to a culmination. Past events and choices we have made, will reveal themselves as either having substance and truth, or as delusion and lies. We have a choice, whether to stay in delusion or to wake up to the truth. We need to take responsibility for, as well as question our own inner reality that ultimately reflects how we see and perceive the reality of the outside world.

With the ongoing Saturn-Neptune square for most of the year, we need to try constantly to discern between the truth and delusions.
After waking up to the truth, the revolution is here. And it’s up to us to choose love over hate, hope over fear, unity over division, compassion over indifference, integrity over Ego.

It’s a choice we are making to choose the message of love and open-heartedness over fear, hate and building inner and outer walls.

“Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them, humanity cannot survive.”- Dalai Lama

Capricorn represents power and cancer love. It’s about believing in and learning that there is no greater force than the power of love.

“When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace,” -Jimi Hendrix.

And here is the other interpretation:

Tonight is The Full Stag Moon, so called because young male stags will start to grow their antlers at this time. It is also called the Thunder Moon because of the thunder storms brought on through the hot and humid air.

Change or be changed is the message of this Full Moon. Since the Summer Solstice you should have felt a sense of something shifting both within yourself and with the outside world, this is because we have crossed a line. The first half of the year is over. We have now entered the second half of the year. This a good time to look back over the last 6 months and look at what you have learned, what you have lost and what you have gained. Take lessons from what you have learned good or bad and use them in your future endeavors whether this be in work, relationships or family.

Tonight's Full Moon is in the constellation of Capricorn, Things could get interesting, to say the least, This is an atmosphere ripe for outbursts that are highly emotional. Emotions could hit extremes of both highs and lows and everything in between, with quick, inexplicably loony shifts. We may find ourselves in a mood for no reason one minute then happy for no reason the next. Don't worry this will pass.

The Capricorn Full Moon will give us strength to work out what we need to work out in our lives, now is the perfect time to look into work or finances. A good saying is 'The harder I work, the luckier I get' which is the Capricorn motto. If there are any jobs that you have been putting off do them now, if you want to give up a bad habit use the energy of this Moon to do it. Look into money making projects it may be a promotion at work or a project you could start that will bring financial rewards. Many people call this the 'Money Moon' because it has the potential to bring you wealth or extra income.

Tonight's Full Moon will be about building foundations for the future, to make ourselves feel more secure in our surroundings and financially. We can only be happy when we feel safe and secure in our own homes and environment. Be ambitious, go for what you want or put plans into place to get what you want in the future. Be braver, be bolder. You will have an inner strength now that will pull you through anything that comes up against you.

Capricorn is the zodiac’s worker sign, the noble protector and soldier. Be your own hero, be a soldier, tackle any problems head on, deal with anything that has been bugging your life, get to grips with what is holding you back, break down walls and barriers that are stopping you from moving forward.

Use the energy of this Full Moon to heal your spirit. Soak up the intensified energy of the Earth and let it cleanse you.

I took a picture of the full moon rising yesterday... lovely picture.

Then, I went home to cook a meal and do some household chores before getting to bed - who said I slept? The moon was so bright that it disturbed my sleep Maybe it didn't like having its picture taken earlier.

Then one of our dogs who was kept confined to the kennel decided to howl the better part of the night.

I kept getting up and going to an open window to hiss at the dog to shut up

Full moons, bah!!

[Ready2Transform]

Ok, that explains why my animals were in a tizzy last night, too, Mitzpah! I usually observe the emotional and esoteric meanings, but I forget all living creatures seem to have a tie to the physical ebb and flow, too. Was a rough night with feline Jeckyls and Hydes waking me up fighting with each other and attacking me. 

Beautiful words, Ursa. My xH is a Cappy. Let's hope it sparks some movement in that goat to look within!

[serenity]

Just stopping by to say hello...

Thought I would share this website where they have a 3-minute full moon ritual (updated every month), http://mooncircles.com/3-minute-moon-ritual/

Helps me ground myself when things get a little wonky.

Thank you for posting that HP.

Beautiful words, Ursa. Thank you for the ritual, handpuppets.

The moon is still upsetting my sleep. Maybe in a couple of days or so, all will again be smooth, sleep wise.
