Aries

October Full Moon

Rubys Astro Alert 🌕 October Full Moon

For All Zodiac Signs 🌟



The Full Moon occurs at 10:56 AM Eastern time on October 20th. And Mars conjuncts the Sun at this time, which can help us in some ways, but it also opposes the emotional Moon and tensely squares powerful Pluto. This energy is all rather intense, on top of an impulsive Full Moon in fiery Aries! So it’s important to pay attention and take a breath if you start to feel frustrated.

Full Moon’s our harbingers of truth, so if you’re looking for closure, you can actively release things during this Full Moon. It’s a good time to work on Setting Intentions, with the theme of letting go. You can ask the Universe questions through activities like journal-writing, meditations, or energy work. Just simply ask however you do it!

As I mentioned, the emotional Full Moon is squaring off with powerful Pluto, which creates some pretty intense energies. This energy can be an explosive time as our emotions have to be expressed one way or another under the Full Moon’s pressure, and add this transit, and we can feel extreme psychological pressure to be in control. It’s important to be willing to compromise to avoid conflict. Choose your battles wisely! Seriously! Which can turn into war-like energy, folks. Tempers can flare up, and rage can be an issue.

Don’t over-schedule yourself, as these transits produce mental pressure, on top of Mercury going direct from its Retrograde phase, which causes confusion. So you don’t need to add stress to these influences by pushing yourself even harder. It’s not a time for things like legal matters, negotiations, or important discussions. At least until this energy starts to break apart in a few days when the Full Moon loses its oomph, and its effects decrease. It’s a time to get away from challenges and stressful people, or you can have serious problems. Ego battles can occur, so avoid the mess.

The Sun, Mercury, and Mars are all in the sign of Libra, so many of you might be feeling somewhat dissatisfied or even disappointed in your current relationships. And with so many planets, especially mental Mercury screwing with our minds in Libra and Retrograde, relationships have been under the spotlight!

The shadow side of this particular Full Moon is strong, with darker Pluto hanging out. No wonder, so many of you have been ghosted, as people are leaving suddenly without any explanations, just poof, and nothing! There’s been a lot of lying and backstabbing going around. Unfortunately, these influences cause relationships to end abruptly, without little to no closure. Some of you have already been involved in a situation that made you feel victimized, which can be heart-wrenching. So pay attention to how you react to others.

With Mars and Mercury both in Libra, we’re dealing with major passive-aggressive behavior. Some folks aren’t stepping up and being honest about what they’re doing wrong, so they’re not taking responsibility for their actions and how they’re making their loved ones feel. Instead, they would rather avoid you entirely or the situation, so they can stay in denial and not deal with the confrontations.
But we must rise up like the story of the Phoenix and figure out how to deal with these situations independently.

There’s numerous ways to gain closure and clarity if you turn to your inner guidance or higher power and do some Setting Intentions healing energy work! Take it easy. Read over my media pages and stories on most Social Media outlets to learn more about how to Sett Intentions!

Rubys Readings

Venus in Aries – Love on Fire

Rubys Readings


March 20th – April 14th

For All Zodiac Signs:

The Goddess of Love herself, Venus, is shifting into the Zodiac’s first sign, Aries.

The planet Venus rules over our love lives and relationships, and this can include family, friends, co-workers, and members of our community. Not just lovers. Venus also happens to have a lot of influence over our finances.

It’s important to be thicker-skinned while Venus is in Aries, especially when it comes to our relationships and how we relate to people socially. There is no sugar-coating things under Venus in Aries’ fiery sign, as our words can sting. But we’re not necessarily being petty or mean, just direct. It’s time to lay your cards on the table and say your truth! Our desires are strong, so we express ourselves in spontaneous and enthusiastic ways, especially in love! And you upset the object of your affection, and you can safely bet that you’ll hear about it, as we don’t hold much back during this time.

In the sign of fast-moving Aries, Venus brings fresh new energy into our love lives and financial affairs. This cycle has a way of bringing people together rather quickly, so we are more direct in relationships, both new and old. We often act more impulsive, passionate, extroverted, and bold in our romantic adventures. There’s a stronger desire for constant change in both our romantic and social lives, so we can make friends easily and are quite fond of receiving and giving love and admiration. We can feel more motivated and enthusiastic and be a source of inspiration to lovers, partners, friends, or co-workers. And a valuable resource to our community, as we will do things to help people who are struggling.

“Carpe Diem” is our motto, which means “Seize the day!” While we are under Venus in Aries spell, we don’t worry about the past or bother looking back. Instead, it’s a time to move forward. As every day is new and full of opportunities, so every moment matters.

We can be easily influenced by the opposite sex now (or by someone more masculine than ourselves.) Since it’s a brand new day, this is an opportunity to initiate something. Anything mushy is not as appealing during this time, and we don’t want to deal with thinking about the past; we enjoy the chase and conquest.

But this fiery influence is also about emotional security, so we’re looking for longstanding relationships or love that will last. A relationship has to feel new and fresh, or we can get bored quite easily and end up moving on to the next interesting love interest.

With Venus in Aries, we are more interested in the hunt naturally, especially when it comes to matters of the heart since we feel more bold and courageous! We can be impulsive and impatient in love and financial affairs. Things can heat up fast with the added boost of Aries energy from the Sun and later in April Mercury shifts into Aries. All of this energy keeps things rather interesting.

We can be quite candid when communicating but more reserved about our deeper feelings or emotions. If you’re feeling badly or insecure, you can get aggressive and downright mean, especially if someone isn’t expressing the love you’re showing back or doesn’t give recognition.

If you are already in a long-term relationship, you can use this fiery energy to light some passions back into your relationship. If you’re single, get ready, lots of people will hookup or have sexual relations, but the fires don’t burn forever. Your new hookup can sizzle out fast!

It’s time to move forward, especially if you want a new commitment. But pay attention to what can happen in a new relationship, unless you are just looking for a hookup! Then have fun!

It’s a good time to enjoy the finer things in life. You can show off a little now, so indulge in luxury and extravagance. We can have an easy come, easy go kind of attitude. So you may want to keep an eye on your budget, or you can overspend.

Our desires are strong and expressed more spontaneously and enthusiastically. Try to avoid throwing temper tantrums with your nearest and dearest, and watch yourself for being too harsh or coarse with those you love.

Enjoy this time,

Mercury in Aries – Moving Forward

Mercury the planet that rules over our thoughts, and how we communicate finally shifts out of the sign of Pisces, (after it’s extended stay due to Mercury’s Retrograde cycle) and into Aries on April 10th, 2020.

The Cosmic Messenger, Mercury has been in the watery sign of Pisces since early February of 2020. But it hasn’t been very comfortable there, as Pisces is Mercury’s detriment, which is not compatible in Astrology terms. Mercury is logical and practical, while Pisces energy can make people feel lost and confused. So we ended up in a mental fog filled with illusions and strong emotions. Mercury’s energy was weakened down quite a bit, and it influences caused our thinking to become unclear. Mercury is a factual and rational planet, and Pisces is about dreams and feelings. 

Then the energies became quite foggy and confusing in February when Mercury went Retrograde, which just made our fears and anxieties even worse. And the world sort of stopped around the 10th and 11th of March, when the reality of the Pandemic struck us here in the US. There were a lot of folks who at first just thought the whole ‘Virus” threat was the media hyping it up! So under Mercury in Retrograde in Pisces things were extremely confusing and misunderstandings were strong. It wasn’t taken seriously enough. Our minds were cloudy and illusions were all over the place, and this caused mistrust which leads to even bigger problems. 

Once folks started to realize the Covid19 Virus was indeed a real threat and that it was spreading quickly, they went into full-blown panic mode! More so than usual. Our fears turned into reality, and it became more difficult to step out of our fear and take care of business due to Mercury still in Retrograde, and this all took place also while the Sun was in Pisces as well. Again, the widespread misunderstandings and misinformation had everything to do with Mercury the planet of communication being in its Retrograde phase while in the sign of Pisces. It was a recipe for problems that were fueled by the Saturn/Pluto Conjunction as well.

Moving Now

Now that Mercury is finally entering the sign of Aries, the logic returns and we can have more clarity. Aries is a Fire Sign, so it casts an intellectual influence on us. Hopefully, this will help us take action or some initiative, and we can let go of our fears and our gloomy attitudes. Then we can take care of business and work on saving lives. With Mercury in Aries, we are ready to fight this deadly disease, after all, Mars rules over Aries and it is the “God of War!”

Thoughts turn into Action 

When Mercury is in Aries our minds move more quickly. In general, people act more impulsive under this energy, because they are in a big hurry and are not thinking rationally, when they’re moving so quickly! And we don’t necessarily think about our consequences first before we take actions, because we are more confident and courageous than usual.

Mercury is the planet that rules over communication, so while in Aries we can be more assertive when speaking or writing. Our opinions come from a place of ego more often under this energy, and our viewpoints are straight from the heart. So we tend to act and do whatever comes to mind when Mercury is in Aries. 

Mercury rules our thoughts, so our thinking is fast, and often our physical actions and bodies are moving faster than we can keep up with. 

The good news about Mercury being in Aries is we can rid the negativity that’s been plaguing our thoughts, as we search for ways to fix our problems. But together our thinking turns to look at the “whole picture”, and there will be a lot of people throwing out commands and giving out orders to move forward as quickly as possible! We are definitely more direct, bold, and energized under this energy, so we can gain clarity when we go after what we want and need now. 

However, there can be a downside to this energy, as with any Astrological influence. Because we are moving at such a rapid pace and are more spontaneous with our reactions and words, we also are more prone to conflicts or even arguments. Again, Aries is ruled by Mars, the planet of war, so frustrations, debates, ego battle, and anger will show up, especially if we feel not heard or blown off somehow. 

More importantly, while Mercury spends its time in warrior Aries, we should be focused on our plans and goals, but by reaching them over a period of time. More often than not we can start things very quickly, but also end them just as fast under this influence. Keep working and creating! This is a time for strategic moves. Stay aware and keep yourself centered and grounded, so we can approach others in a persuasive manner rather than try to overpower others. 

Mercury’s April Connections 

Mercury in Aries makes some rather interesting Astrological connections. 

  • On April 11, Mercury forms a nice Sextile to Saturn, this brings clear thoughts, and we enjoy working and taking care of responsibilities. This favors organization. 
  • When Mercury forms a Sextile with Venus in Gemini on April 18, and we are more charming and compassionate with others, and when we communicate.
  • On the same day, Mercury meets up in yet another Sextile this time with motivated Mars, and this gives us confidence and powerful thinking and communicating. This is a good time to be assertive with others, especially in your intimate relationships. Expressing ourselves more freely on the romantic front can be quite helpful. This can be with a partner or when are you want to seduce someone with words. 

Later in April, some intense connections are being made involving Mercury that can cause frustrations.

  • On April 25, Mercury makes a tense square with shadowy Pluto. Then on April 26, Mercury Squares off with giant Jupiter. This causes some folks to act arrogantly, and things tend to get exaggerated, especially what we are communicating! If we go overboard or push too hard there can be consequences. 
  • On April 27, Mercury will shift into the sign of Taurus. This will be great for finding ways to be comfortable and for nurturing those you love and care for with your words. But we can be overly expressive, brutally honest, and stubborn. 

In the meantime, focus on taken care of business and working hard. Enjoy the turn Mercury spends on Aries, and the extra confidence, but remember to give people space both physically and mentally. Take time outs every once in a while and simply catch your breath, so you can avoid little mishaps and mistakes. The world is about to move much faster, which will be a welcome change.

NEW MOON IN ARIES-TRAILBLAZING

FRIDAY, April 5th, 2019

“HAPPY NEW MOON DAY!”

The NEW MOON is in the sign of ARIES this April of 19, and it brings in fresh and new energy. This particular trailblazing NEW MOON is when the Sun in ARIES and the MOON in ARIES both make a rather harmonious connection. ARIES energy is always about New Beginnings, and NEW MOON’S are about starting a NEW CYCLE in our life. So this fiery lunation is strong and potent! When we think of Spring time it’s about renewal and new Beginnings, and this is the perfect energy to line up right along with the start of the new season.


During this time we should be able to take the lead and move forward in our lives, and be the warrior like this ARIES energy and charge ahead! This is the time to take action, try something new and innovative, and go after what you want. Don’t be afraid and let your confidence take you where it needs to. ARIES energy can help you learn how to be assertive without being harmful. It’s a time to take charge of our lives and start something new and different. The lessons ARIES hands out is about staying young, and connecting to your inner child in some way, but it’s also trying to teach you how to be bold and learn more about your own personal courage. 


Now that mental MERCURY is freshly out of its Retrograde cycle, the energy of strength helps you to better understand yourself, so you can do some soul searching through journal-keeping, meditation, or exercise. You have an opportunity to start this cycle off on a good note and make the changes you’ve been patiently waiting to make while MERCURY was in RETROGRADE, it was a long one. 


This is a good time to set goals, plans, and commitments that are more realistic. “Go big and go hard” is a good ARIES Mantra, no matter how big or small you set your sights, you should start to notice things happening within a few weeks by the next FULL MOON. Later, you may get to reap the rewards from whatever new beginnings you begin. 


ARIES is the first sign of the ZODIAC, so this being a NEW MOON makes it especially strong with opportunity for New Beginnings. It is a time to actually act on impulse if you are careful of course, follow your gut instincts, your intuition, and take some risks. Aries is a sign that teaches us to take action and learn through our experiences. So get out there and have some sort of adventure! 


This is also a good cycle to learn more about how to keep things real, ARIES teaches all of us a valuable lesson around expressing ourselves in a more authentic way and without being false. This helps you to better rely on yourself and to be happy about doing so, so you can be put you on a path towards finding inner peace and ridding any anxiety you may be experiencing around being alone. Then you can be self-sufficient and not worry so much about blaming those who weren’t always there. 


“This is a time to break your normal everyday routines and have experiences that involve doing something new, this can help you feel more alive and worthy.”


However, this particular NEW MOON is forming a tense square to taskmaster SATURN, which means some paths towards our New Beginnings might be blocked. Some kind of plan or expectations you have may not startmoving as quickly as you thought they would.Hopefully, since we are in a unique time Astrologically with NO major planets or cosmic bodies in RETROGRADE, eventually theenergies will get moving after we deal withSATURN’S challenges. 


For All, you fellow ASTROLOGY freaks this NEW MOON phase occurs at 15 degrees and 17 mins of ARIES, which tends to affect folks born with their personal planets and points at 11 to 19 degrees of the Cardinal Signs of the ZODIAC (ARIES, CANCER, LIBRA, and CAPRICORN.)

March Full Moon Event!

March Full Moon

March 20th, 2019

For All Zodiac Signs

The March Full Moon in the sign of Libra is rather special from an Astrological standpoint, as it takes place on March 20th which is also the Spring Equinox, which in the Northern Hemisphere is the official start of Spring, and it’s also the same day the Sun shifts into the sign of Aries in 2019, and Aries Season begins.

This rare Spring Equinox Full “Super” Moon is when the Moon actually comes closer to the Earth. It takes an interesting combo of timing and location to attain Super Moon status, as they appear to be super-sized and much larger and brighter than a regular Full Moon. But this one is extremely special because it occurs during the Spring Equinox.

A few days before the Full Moon people tend to get weird and emotional, as the pressure builds up a few days prior to March 20th, this Super Moon’s energies will really pump things up. Some folks will feel more anxious, excitable, and can get highly irritated. But it also brings in incredible opportunities for love and money. So hopefully, being made aware helps you to be better prepared, so you can find your zen and stay grounded. Then this Full Moon’s super strong energy won’t cause you so many problems. Knowledge is power!

This Full Moon is in the sign of Libra, which is about partnerships and relationships, be it romantic or business, family or friend, something might be revealed, or become very important. Many of you will be making decisions about jobs, marriage, divorce, dating, letting go or allowing someone into your life under this Full Moon. Those folks who are already in a committed relationship may have some major turning point this week. Some of you might even meet up with a new or old lover, who you share a deep romantic bond with. However, we are still under Mercury’s cycle in Retrograde, so be careful. Just because someone we once loved shows back up in our lives doesn’t mean we are destined to be together. Take it very slow if you happen to meetup with a old lover or friend, it’s probably a lesson and not for the long run.

The Moon is in the 1st degree of Libra, which is the start of something or a new beginning. There can be epiphanies and Ah-Ha Psychic moments that have some special meaning, usually these are about starting something new and fresh. Something comes to full bloom, and this puts us on a new path. Oddly enough, the day after the Full Moon, Venus, Libra’s ruling planet is forming a tense Square to its Cosmic lover Mars, which is Aries ruling planet, and the Sun will be just shifting into Aries starting on the Full Moon point! This can bring up conflicts and tensions between our need for independence and togetherness. The end result of these conflicts can lead to new beginnings. Here’s an interesting note, this Full Moon occurs right at the beginning of the sign of Libra, and next month’s Full Moon will be near the end of the sign of Libra, so there is way more to this story then you probably realize at this time. Perhaps, an ending around whatever is brought out will be understood more during April 19th Full Moon.

“Feeling anxious and irritated during a Full Moon is actually a normal physical response to the Moon’s gravational pull on the planet. Just like the tides of the ocean rise during a Full Moon, so does the water within our own bodies, hence causing a physical and emotional response.”

This is also a great week for healing, and maybe gaining some sort of understanding of what you need to help heal yourself. The Sun in conjunct Chiron, the “wounded healer.” A emotional wound may come up to the surface to deal with, revealing that something needs you attention. If you make some time to learn how to nurture yourself, there can be some amazing healing work done.

As I mentioned March’s Full Moon is in the sign of Libra, and this definitely puts a spotlight on our relationships (of all kinds.) This gives us an opportunity to take a step back and observe ourselves, and notice if we are including the needs and desires of those around us, as we continue on our own journey. There’s a stronger pull to be fair and just, as our focus is more so on strengthening our relationship ties and bonds. This is a very social energy and a good time to have some sort of celebration, maybe you could throwing a party and celebrate the Full Moon-Spring Equinox! Take some time alone with your BFF while you’re at it, and don’t forget to schedule some sort of romantic adventure out with your lover!

The Moon just barely in the sign of Libra will go Full Wednesday evening, check your time zones! And it will stay Full through late Friday evening on the 22nd, so it will be strong for 2 and half days!

March 20th, Full Moon Occurrance Times

Eastern Time Zone 9:42 p.m.

Central Time Zone 8:42 p.m.

Pacific Time Zone 6:42 p.m.

Mountain Time Zone 7:42 p.m.

Setting Intentions with the Moon

If you are one who enjoys working with the Full Moon or Lunar energies every month than don’t miss this magical rare Super Full Moon event! There are portals opening with these energies since it’s also the Spring Equinox, and the start of the Astrological Calendar Year with the Sun shifting into Aries! So remember to Set Intentions to release something that might be holding you bsck from love, prosperity, luck, good health, etc.

Have a blessed Full Moon and a Magical Astrological New Year!

Spring Equinox/Aries Season

Sun in Aries/Spring Equinox
March 20, 2019

For All Zodiac Signs

The Sun shifts into the sign of Aries on March 20, 2019, and it’s the official first day of Spring as the “Spring Equinox” (Vernal Equinox) occurs, which is also the first day of the Astrological New Year!

Aries Season
The Sun will be in the sign of Aries from March 20, 2019 through April 19, 2019. And Aries Season begins! But did you know this affects each and every one of us, no matter your Sun Sign. With the Sun moving into this fiery but also empowering energy, we are awakened and there can be some great things are on the horizon. This is a time of new beginnings, as the light of the Sun slowly takes over the dark. We are more determined and motivated under the Sun in Aries cycle, but we should be careful about being impulsive and hasty. Our personal goals become very important, and there’s a strong urge to move forward and get things done under this new zodiac cycle. We are motivated to initiate something by taking the lead and making our own path. We notice our gut instincts more under this influence, so it’s good time to listen to them and pay attention! We are all going to be moving at a much faster pace now, and for some folks, this might be a lot faster than what they’re used to.

Spring Equinox
Spring is a season of growth and rejuvenation, and this Astrological New Year is urging you to explore new directions. During the Spring Equinox the energies can be extremely potent. This is the beginning of Spring in the Northern Hemisphere and the energetic turning point from one season to the next. This is when the sunshine finally starts to grow through the Summer Solstice. We get to live more outwardly again, as we crawl back out to the land of the living, and get to spend more time outdoors once again and winter slowly fades away.

During this time of year many people around the world celebrate the Spring Equinox with all kinds of interesting old traditions and festivities to honor the Goddess of Renewal or Spring. Along with the Earth’s ability to regenerate itself once again, this season is obviously very important for many different reasons. It’s a time of awakenings, beginnings, and positive energy chasing the dark of night away.

Ask for Changes
As the seasons change, a gateway opens where we experience the light and dark. This makes for a great time to think about what energies you want to draw to you. It’s a time to think about what you want to manifest in your life next. Of course we all want to be healthy and have lots of money, but this is a time when we should get more detailed when making our “Intentions” List. So it’s a great time for setting powerful intentions or making out Wish Lists, and for doing energy work of any kind.

So get comfortable and take a breathe, and ask the Universe or whatever it is you believe in to bring in what you need and choose. And get a little detailed about it what you want to happen. Ask them to put you on the path towards what will make you happy! Think about what kind of things you want to happen next. What do you need to move forward and obtain your goals? Write it all down and make it perfectly clear to the Universe what it is your asking for.

Lots of people celebrate this season with religious or spiritual celebrations. But we must not forget the history, and that all of these festivities stem from the fact, that the Spring Equinox is first and foremost a major “Astrological Event.” This event is actually more about about the Sun’s light expanding, and it’s shift into the sign of Aries, the first Zodiac sign of the Astrological Calendar. This light represents the promise of a greater more warm life-changing energy coming into our lives.

And Easter is just one of those celebrations that actually began many Moon’s ago, as Eggs and Bunnies originally were symbols of fertility and sex, and represented new life beginning. Unfortunately, like most holidays it has been commercialized and even moved to a date on the calender that doesn’t match up with its origins and the Spring Equinox.

If you’ve been struggling through the Winter months, then consider this event to be just like a calendar New Year! In fact, it’s much stronger in energy because it is a Equinox. Be inspired that this is a new cycle and a renewed energy, and remember sometimes you have to believe that something can and will change.

May the Sun’s warmth and Spring’s Energy bring about new beginnings for you that lead to your deepest dreams and desires coming true.

New Moon in Aries

New Moon in Aries
April 15, 2018
wp-1458575933886.jpg

On Sunday evening, April 15th the New Moon occurs in the Sign of Aries!

This means you have an opportunity to tap into your creative and courageous side, so take some time starting now to write your Intentions or Wishes down during this New Moon, and see what it is exactly that ignites the fire inside you! This will help you move forward in life. This is a time of inspiration, so you should be focused on what you’d like to create next in your life so you can make your dreams a reality!

New Moon’s are a time of opportunity, and when something new can begin.

This particular New Moon is in fiery Aries, so it is quite strong and potent. This is actually the first New Moon of the “Astrological” New Year, which started on March 20 during the Spring Equinox.

Uranus the messenger and this New Moon both in Aries, make a connection that certainly can liven things up!

Our freedom and sense of independence become more important than usual. Certain generations are being affected quite strongly by the planet of revolution and freedom, Uranus already! This is why there’s such a strong resistance movement underway. And therefore some of you have already been experiencing a surge of energy, that’s pushing you to get out there and fight for certain causes no matter the cost. You need your freedom and space to do things your way!

During this New Moon, some folks can get quite a wake-up call!

This is a sudden awareness about your true calling, destiny, or higher purpose in life. Therefore it can bring in some challenges, but this can help you move past your fears and insecurities, so you’ll take a risk, a leap of faith perhaps, and go after what it is you truly want or desire! The Uranian influence surrounding this New Moon makes it much easier to surrender the ego-driven part of ourselves that doesn’t allow us to just flow with unexpected events so this can help us learn how to change. This particular New Moon is trying to teach us how to be excited about our path in life, and how to follow our passion and trust the Universe enough to let go of any control we think we have and surrender.

 

20180208_070357

The Sun in Aries this month helps strengthen our willpower and desire.

The sign of Aries is part of each and every one of us, (all the Signs of the Zodiac are actually in our Astrology Birth Charts). Aries energy is known for being a Trailblazer that creates a spark. This is a gift from the Cosmos that helps stir up our passions, which creates the fire inside us to move forward and manifest something hopefully new and exciting! If we learn how to handle this New Moon energy with respect and make more positive changes, hopefully, we’ll experience some major transformations.

Mental Mercury is also in the sign of Aries currently, and it goes Direct from being Retrograde on the same day as the New Moon!

Hooray! This is a sign that we can get moving forward again in some area of our life. Since March 22nd (and even back in February during the shadow Retrograde phase), we have been slowed down! As annoying as Mercury in Retrograde can be, it has been trying to help us reconnect with our deepest desires, as it’s brought up the past to learn from through both people and situations. Mercury wants us to unplug from the world and reconnect with ourselves, so we can come out of it renewed and refreshed, but it is challenging living in the time of technology and information. There’s an opportunity to move forward now since we have a new perspective as mental Mercury stations or comes to a stop to move forward and out of Retrograde!

Also, Mercury is meeting up with Chiron the Wounded Healer, which is in its last degree of Pisces.

Chiron is about to shift signs and move into the sign of Aries for the first time in 49 yrs on April 17th! With Chiron in Aries, we take an on our emotional wounds like Warriors, and are no longer going to be in the mood to feel victimized or held down by our pain! This new Chiron energy coming in can help us move away from our trauma like never before. So get ready folks it’s time to heal in a big way!

The sign of Aries is ruled by passionate Mars!

This reminds us to work on ourselves by doing something brave that helps us to be more true to who we are as individuals. Mars is currently in the sign of Capricorn, which helps us to be more focused, disciplined, and willing to use the Aries fire so we can move forward in the right direction and therefore be more productive.

There’s a very strong Saturn influence hanging over this New Moon as well.

Saturn’s influence helps us to be less impatient and impulsive and work on being more strategic and work on long-term planning. On the other side of these energies, we don’t want to let our fears or insecurities stop us from being brave enough to take action. So to make this a successful New Moon we should blend the Aries and Capricorn energies together by taking strategic risks, putting in the time to do the work, and trusting the process the Universe puts us through, no matter what that looks like.

Mercury Retrograde in Aries

Mercury Retrograde in Aries
By Ruby

March 22nd – April 15th

The first Mercury Retrograde for 2018 starts on March 22nd at 4 degrees in the sign of Aries. Mercury in Aries brings in a fiery mental energy, as Aries is a Cardinal and Fire Sign. We tend to feel more impatient and impulsive during this time, and we can jump without thinking about our consequences first, which can get us into some trouble very quickly, or cause some unexpected problems, as it has become notorious for missed connections, miscommunications, malfunctioning electronics, travel snafus, fender benders, and more.

When Mercury is Retrograde our thinking is thrown off, as well as our perspective. So mistakes, misunderstandings, and problems involving communication are likely. It’s not a good time to sign contracts, make new agreements, buy something new, or begin new projects. It’s an excellent time to research, revisit, plan, and prepare for something later. Remember Mercury likes to take us back literally when it’s in Retrograde, so back to old friends and lovers, and even behaviors and lessons, to learn something we didn’t the first go around.

Since Mercury is in what’s considered to be the most impatient sign of the Zodiac, Aries! This particular Mercury in Retrograde is difficult when it comes to having any kind of patience! I can’t stress this enough. People have already been experiencing the impulsivity, frustrations, and aggression out there over the last three weeks while we have been under the “Shadow Period” as it’s called to the actual Retrograde cycle!

Please be extra careful during this cycle, and watch for other people and how they react and drive, they aren’t thinking clearly under this influence. Aries energy can be prone to accidents and injuries because of the impulsive energy so we may see some accidents occurring around the world, especially involving situations where we didn’t take care of details beforehand. To think we started off this Mercury in Retrograde cycle with an 800-Ton Walkway Bridge falling in Florida because it was built in less than 9 hours! That’s just way to fast during this time, as someone forgot an important detail.

We also need to watch our tempers!
It’s way to easy to get bent all out of shape and frustrated, and enter ego-battles or arguments during this time, without even realizing how we got there! This cycle brings out more aggressive behavior due to feeling confused, and it can serve as an outlet for folks to release their pent-up emotional baggage. Stay focused on your goals and what you want to conquer during this three-week-long period, and put your attention on something positive so you can direct that extra energy into something you need or want. It also is a time to watch your mouth! Remember, Mercury rules our minds, and Aries is ruled by the planet Mars, ya know the GOD OF WAR! We can wage little battles that can turn quickly into bigger issues if we aren’t careful about what and how we say things. Just remember that losing a battle is sometimes the only way to win the war. Keep your language short and sweet on this wonderful day.

With all of that being said, I want you to know you are not doomed to fail if you make important changes or moves during Mercury in Retrograde, but it can cause more issues that you will have to go back over and get extremely detailed about which can be time-consuming. Making changes doesn’t seem to be as successful settled for the future during a Retrograde period. And it can be more difficult to make a plan stick. During a Retrograde period, it’s just more tough to get decisions made from others and even if a decision is made, it is subject to change, either just after Mercury turns direct motion or much later.

Often I find that when we have to redo things during Mercury’s backward cycle, we also get rewarded with something that we didn’t realize we could even have, for all our hard work and frustration there seems to be a pay off more often than not! I was born during a Mercury in Retrograde phase and this happens to me often, where I have to redo something I swore I was done with and even though it is extremely frustrating the rewards I can’t deny are awesome, as long as I am patient enough.

Mercury in Retrograde periods aren’t the best times for communication or clarity, because our thoughts are scattered and we tend to forget what we are talking about, but we might think we know for sure what we are seeing or saying so we can be very convincing,  but it’s a time to question everything because things just aren’t what they appear to be during this cycle. Starting anything that involves communication like a new website, turning in important papers, or making business agreements, for example, can be a big fail. It’s a confusing time to launch anything new, even if it’s not related to communication period.

The world doesn’t choose to live by Astrology influences, unfortunately, so often you will see lots of website overhauls and new systems being put in businesses, and road construction everywhere! Even though this is a challenging time to do so, it seems to work out that folks feel like making changes under the Retrograde time, so you just have no choice but to roll with it. But perhaps the changes that are made now will have been gone over again and again due to the Retrograde cycle and that helps them get it right, who knows, but look for lots of interesting new changes this time around especially as the sign of Aries is all about initiating change and starting new beginnings. Avoid it if you can, I promise you will end up going back over it soon after and having to redo something, and maybe even again and again. The environment will be quite fluid and changeable, no matter what you are told or what you think.

But all we can do is roll with this cycle folks and be patient as possible with each other, that is the most important part of this whole cycle over the next six weeks actually, is to work hard at being PATIENT! Then you can avoid major issues or breakdowns.

“Setting Intentions” & the Full Moon”



By Ruby 

This is an opportune time to ask the Universe to bless and release whatever you need to let go of, and do away with, and what doesn’t serve you. The intentions that are set during a “Full Moon” will set you on the right path towards your hopes, wishes, and desires by helping you release old pains and experiences that just have held you down or blocked you up! It’s time to get the old stuff out for good now.

During the Full Moon, we often experience an energy shift. So we must release the old energies to be open for the new energies that will be coming in.


What to Release under a Full Moon:

* Lower energies

* Negative patterns or bad habits* Unhealthy situations or relationships


What to work on during the Full Moon:

*Letting go of both the people and situations that aren’t working anymore (sometimes it is just an attitude or thought)

*Clearing space for new energies to come in

*Being GRATEFUL for what you already have and what will be


Have a conversation with the Universe (meaning your higher power, Guides, Angels, etc), and ask the “Full Moon” to help illuminate the path that leads you towards your deepest desires. Simply ask to be led to what you’re choosing to manifest. Remember to allow the time needed for your guides to light the way, it doesn’t always happen right away, but sometimes magic happens and it does. The “Full Moon” illuminates and is symbolic for seeing what’s been hidden, secret, tucked away, or suppressed. So ask for the truths to be revealed during this time. 


What if you don’t know how to “Set Intentions” under the “Full Moon.”
Follow the steps below to learn how:


Step One: Clear your Sacred Space

Clear the energy of the area or room you’re using to do Full Moon work in. You are simply calling in some positive energy to work with. Burn some Sage or Incense and clear the energies. Next, close your eyes and breathe deeply …and call your Guides, Angels, or higher-power in and ask to have your sacred space cleared of any negative energy, and then to fill it up with the energy of love and light. (Never leave energy empty, always fill it with something once you’ve cleared it.)


Step Two: Set the Atmosphere

Set the mood for your “Full Moon” Ritual and again burn some special incense, light some candles (colors do have different meanings) and play some music that helps you feel spirituality connected. This can be very different for everyone. Just makes sure to use whatever tools or colors that make you feel calm, happy, and peaceful.


Step Three: Setting Intentions with the Full Moon energy

You’re going to need a notebook, paper, or a journal and something to write with. Think about where you’re going to perform your energy work at. Because we create an energy vortex wherever we sit or sleep or do spiritual work! This is why you feel so comfortable in your favorite chair, not only because it feels safe and secure, but also because you have created an energy vortex in that spot or space.

Next, you will write what energy you’d like the Universe to bring in and remove both. Simply write your deepest truths, wishes, and questions down. Think about what energy you’re trying to let go of and release. Write your letter like as if you were talking to an old friend. Think about what energy you’re trying to push out of your life, and what energy you’re trying to bring in, and be detailed but don’t go overboard. Don’t forget to leave room for the energies to shift, change and mold what you’re creating. Sometimes these things take time, but you also may want to learn how to hear the messages or receive signs from the Universe, usually, it’s very subtle energy. But over time usually, your questions will be answered. 


As you’re doing this work and setting your intentions, here are some helpful questions you can think about, for example; Ask for what you are choosing to come into your life and what changes you would like to see happen? What are you or should you be letting go of? How do you feel about what is happening in your life now? What do you want to release? Think about your long-term goals and your future, and what energy you’d like to create over the coming months.


Step Four: Visualize what you’re Creating

Now you’re going to visualize what you have written. First get comfortable again, preferably in the same place and read what you wrote. Close your eyes and take long deep breaths, in your nose and out your mouth. See the energy of your heart center, that’s in the middle of your chest (not your pumping heart) but your spiritual heart or commonly referred to as the “Heart Chakra.” Visualize yourself in what you’re trying to create or manifest. For example; see yourself living in that new home, falling in love with that great Soul-Mate, driving that new car. Don’t just think about it, now make sure and “FEEL IT,” as if you were really experiencing what you’re visualizing. So if it makes you laugh, cry, scream or whatever, then go with it.


Step Five: Gratitude

It’s very important to work on releasing what you don’t want in your life during a Full Moon, but it’s equally as important to not leave a VOID after you are done. Which looks like you filling that space up with gratitude for what you do have and around the work you are doing. When we focus on what it is we don’t have we are focusing on “Lack”, and that will only bring in the things you don’t have. Remember what we put our attention on is what will show up! So instead think and feel the things you are grateful for in your heart, Ask yourself what makes you happy that is in your life right now! That way you are attracted more of that kind of “feeling” which will bring in more of the good feeling kind of energy, and that can make you way happier than getting all wrapped up in what isn’t in your life or being held captive by your pains and traumas. 


Allow the Universe to show you what path to follow over the next 30 days, and let the Full Moon light up the way! Hopefully, you’ll at least be put on a path towards what you truly desire, all while letting go of what you don’t need anymore.


Have a safe and blessed Full Moon

Full Moon in Aries 

Full Moon in Aries 

October 2017

The Full Moon each month is when we hit an emotional peak, so our emotions are running high and hot during this one folks! On October 5th, the Full Moon in Aries comes together, Aries is a fire sign that’s associated with passion, anger, and overall intensity! And the Full Moon always heightens how we are feeling! So you get the picture here? This energy has been building all week, hence the intense powerful feelings that have been running around.

This Full Moon can help reawaken those of you who have been feeling down, depressed, or lacking in energy and/or vitality. As the Sun and Moon make this fiery conjunction it can help wake us up and gets us out of our stuckness and clear any stagnant energy we’ve been experiencing. Under this Full Moon, we will need to make up our minds about something, and move towards what inspires, ignites, and re-aligns our soul.

This Full Moon is in a tense square to deeper and darker Pluto just recently out of Retrograde. So this brings out the shadow side of our existence, and our core wounds usually caused by some kind of past trauma.  Because our patience is wearing thin we are easily triggered, so small irritations can turn quickly into bigger arguments. This energy has already been and will continue to be explosive, therefore it can be difficult to control ourselves and our reactions.

If you really want to learn something from this Full Moon, and you start to get frustrated then try to understand the deeper truth to as why you are angry. Here’s a hint, anger is usually just deep-seated fear being expressed. Ask yourself what you’re really afraid of! You can feel pumped up and go to the point of extremes. Watch for manipulative behavior, abuse of power, and for people trying to control your behavior. Especially, in our relationships with mental Mercury in Libra opposing this Full Moon!

Please be advised this energy can get quite volatile, as it already has proven itself these last week! There will be misunderstandings that turn into arguments because we have such intense reactions.

This Full Moon is a tense meeting between the Sun in Libra and the Moon in Aries, this is the “self” and “others,” we need to find ways to balance out how we take care of ourselves and the other people’s needs in our life, especially in our relationships. If you are allowing others to push you around, the scales are out of balance and you’re using too much Libra energy. We must express our needs and desires to keep the peace. It’s a time to be clear and precise about how we feel, don’t allow yourself to jump to conclusions and become irrational or impulsive under this blazing Aries energy.

To work under this Full Moon you’ll need to be mindful and patient, dedicated, and skillfully planning your timing. Saturn brings a wake-up call or reality check around what is working in your life and within your relationships. It also puts focus on how we are taking care of ourselves, our bodies, and personal environment or space.

We’re still under the final tense meeting of Jupiter in Libra and Uranus in Aries energy. This final hooray magnifies the revolutionary power of the Full Moon, we can find personal growth through travel, education, and relationships as long as we take care of our responsibilities. Get creative and discover the most amazing ways to cure your boredom without too many issues or disruptions.

And finally, the “Cosmic Lovers” Venus and Mars make a harmonious Trine to powerful Pluto! This adds some serious intensity and passion to our relationship dynamics, or to whatever brings us happiness and pleasure. This can help us feel more deeply passionate about our loved ones in general, but especially with our partners. This energy is intense but it’s a fun energy for our intimate relations, as we have a strong desire for love and affection. Take this wild, passionate time during the Full Moon and let it motivate you to work harder toward your goals and make your dreams come true.

If you want to learn just how this Full Moon is affecting your life for the next few weeks, and what it means just for you, then Purchase a “Full Moon Report” with me.

I will do the necessary research and send you a detailed report and add in all of Octobers Forecast details just for you! All the information I gather is also based on your own Personal “Astrology Birth Chart,” so it’s not just because you’re Leo, Aries, or whatever Sun Sign, (there’s actually three Decans per sign), and that’s why I can give you details you’re regular Horoscopes can’t tell you! Message or email me for more details! healingruby@yahoo.com 

If you want to “Set Intentions” around the Full Moon, you can start late Wednesday afternoon and you have all the way through late Friday afternoon, that’s two whole days to do any Full Moon energy work you’d like. Take advantage and enjoy it!

MERCURY Goes Direct! 

Happy Mercury Goes Direct! 
by Ruby

Mercury in Retrograde is finally turning direct today, YAY!

If you don’t follow Astrology, then maybe you should at least read this!

Did you experience the energies feeling off and slowed down, and end up feeling somewhat frustrated and confused over the last month or so? Well, Mercury in Retrograde influence causes electronic glitches and snafus, and strange misunderstandings, as our perspective is skewed. And strange weather events see 24m to occur at the beginning and end of Mercury Retrograde cycles.

Mercury appeared to be heading backward (Retrograde) for the last three weeks, and this has caused some major frustrations, (that wasn’t including the annoying three week period before it’s initial Retro phase, called the “Shadow Period” as it slowed down to enter into it’s Retro. cycle)

Don’t get too excited just yet, as I wouldn’t start anything brand new at this time, and I know many of you are just waiting to initiate something, but this is not a time for conclusions or resolutions, at least not just yet.

Mercury has to now pick up the pace, as it’s going the right way once again and get back to its normal speed, this adjustment period lasts for two weeks. So communications, electronic glitches, and misunderstandings will slowly calm down over the coming days and weeks.

It’s really a one day at a time situation, especially right now, this can actually be the most confusing week of the whole Mercury in Retrograde cycle! So unless you want to have to go back and redo something, again and again, I highly suggest you take things very slowly.

The planet Mercury is known as the “Messenger” of the Zodiac, it rules over how we communicate, think, and process information.

Mercury in Retrograde helps us to better understand and discover some important truths as well. The past has shown up in one way or another for a reason, and that is to help us see things from a different perspective, or in a different way. This is so we can be far away enough from a past situation to gain clarity. Then we can make better choices that lead us on to a new path that is more fit for what it is we truly want and desire, once Mercury is headed the right way again.

Hindsight is 20/20!

In hindsight things are obvious that were not obvious from the outset; one is able to evaluate past choices more clearly than at the time of the choice.

What we should be doing now that Mercury is headed in the right direction, is wrap up any old business we haven’t yet finished, so soon we can start something new and fresh. If you don’t want to get held up or back again then it’s best to wait it out and take things slowly over the next few weeks, and towards mid-May, you can start new projects and adventures, like a new job or relationship.

It’s also a great time to take all that information you gathered during Mercury in Retrograde and sort through it. Start planning out specific goals, clear out spaces, and get organized. Prepare for your future success story!

During Mercury’s Retrograde phase we had an opportunity to review our lives from a new perspective. Which makes it a good time to focus on what we have learned and observed. And soon enough we’ll  be able to use that information to help move forward again.

Hopefully, over the next few weeks, whatever problems we encountered during Mercury’s Retro cycle will start to clear up.

But today’s energies can feel way off balance, and a little slowed down. There’s a whole bunch of information coming in now that can flood our minds. This can be confusing to make sense of it all right now.

So I suggest to not make any major changes or decisions just yet, as I can’t stress that enough! Our thinking is still somewhat off and there’s information we haven’t even got yet to take into consideration. 

Give Mercury time to get back to its normal pace, and enjoy that it’s nearly over for now. Until late August, but I highly doubt you want me to discuss that one just yet, lol.

“Love On Fire Part 2? – Venus in Aries”

“Love On Fire Part 2? – Venus in Aries”

Has your love life been topsy-turvy? This is for all the Sun signs of the Zodiac!

Venus is moving once again into fiery Aries from April 28-June 6

The Goddess of Love, Venus was already in fiery Aries a few months ago, but she shifted back into the sensitive waters of Pisces during her Retrograde phase in April, and this did help us learn to have compassion for one another more so, but now she’s back in Aries once again and our love lives and financial dealings are going to heat up!

If you’re curious how Venus in Aries will affect your relationships now or again, just think back to last February through the beginning of April. Our relationships and finances were shaken up in a major way by Venus’s Retrograde cycle, as many of you quit or lost jobs and there were lots of breakups!

But now that we and our relationships have come out of that intense cycle of psychotherapy, it’s time to make a decision around our relationships, and ask ourselves if we stay in them and work together to mend, or is it simply time to let go and start anew. This applies to our business relationships and financial endeavors as well!

Last week, Venus started heading back the right way and out of, it’s Retrograde cycle, thank goodness!

Venus in Aries energy brings love on quickly! In relationships, both new or old this energy is direct and spontaneous. People want to chase and hunt each other under this very exciting fiery influence. When it comes to matters of the heart we are more bold, courageous, aggressive, and a little more impatient. This influence brings out the part of ourselves that desires beauty, success, indulgences, and valuables.

Even though we feel like being more direct than usual in our relationships, there are those folks who let’s just say will be more reserved, and actually held back because they’re not too sure if the other person shares the same feelings, so some of you would rather be alone. Love can become challenging if your confidence gets too low and you might become more strategic, stealth, or sneaky in love, which can become very unhealthy by the way!

Normally, under this Aries energy, we don’t look back in regards to our relationships. Each day is new and full of opportunities, and each moment matters. We’re not interested so much in apologies or dwelling in the past. We enjoy the chase and the conquest of it all.

Relationships of all kinds will start fast and furious during this cycle, but also may end very abruptly, so it’s important to make yourself slow down and pay attention if you’re looking for something long-term, and if that’s not the case than just have some fun. Mars the planet of passion and sex rules Aries after all, so it’s time to get physical in your relationships, chase each other around the house naked, go out on wild dates doing things that are thrilling that you’ve never done before, get the blood pumping sort of speak back into your relationships and enjoy each other!

With Venus in Aries once again, our long-term relationships can be rejuvenated. But only if they stay exciting and fresh to some degree, but this energy can certainly put the spark back in our relationships and make it a love affair again. Unless you are only together for financial stability, which is more common than you think, then work on strengthening the bond you have together.

With Venus in Aries, we say how we feel out-loud and don’t bother sugar coating things. “Saying it like it is” is more important at this time. Our desires are strongly expressed and are more spontaneous, direct, and enthusiastic. We aren’t necessarily trying to be mean in this energy, but we speak our minds and for some that can be difficult to handle.

And we prefer to seduce rather than be seduced, to chase than to be chased. We are in charge and in control, so we say what goes in our relationships now, this can be a bit overbearing for our partners, however, and we can also easily chase folks away if we’re not careful.
