Full Moon in Taurus

Rubys Astro Readings
Full Moon in Taurus

For all the Signs of the Zodiac:

The FULL MOON occurs on Saturday, November 4th, 2017, at 1:23 AM EDT, 12:23 PM CST

This week’s Full Moon occurs late Friday night, early Saturday morning, depending on what part of the world you are in. And it’s in the strong but loving sign of Taurus, which can bring up certain things like: Money, Security, Love, Beauty, Love, and Food, yes I said food, as we love to nurture ourselves and others when the Moon is in good, solid, stabilized Taurus, and therefore food becomes a strong need and desire for some under this energy!

The Full Moon is actually an opposition, when the Sun in Scorpio forms a challenging energy with the Moon in Taurus. This one is also what’s called a “Cazimi” Moon, because it is particularly close to earth, so certain themes will come into play more strong than usual. This energy brings up some issues around filling the voids in our life and what we are lacking.

Do you feel satisfied with what you have and do you have enough of what you need, and do you feel secure? Wondering if you have enough money, love, food, or security can come up during this Full Moon, and the answers will become quite obvious over the weekend.

Full Moons are about balancing out the two opposed forces depending on what Zodiac Sign they are transiting, and we must look at these energies to understand what we need to be doing to work with this energy and not against it. There is the more earthy, practical, peace-loving, and security minded Taurus Moon and than emotional, power hungry, soul-searching, dramatic Sun in Scorpio. The Moon in Taurus wants you to find something that fills an emotional need or void (hence why food can become a stronger desire), but it wants you to do it in a more simplistic way, finding what works for you in this life. While the Sun in Scorpio draws our attentions to what is more deeply psychological and complex, it draws us to solve the mysteries around us. This Full Moon illuminates this conflict between what is physical (Taurus) and transforming (Scorpio).

This energy makes us feel more passionate, in love, and highly creative! This Full Moon’s energy helps us think of the possibilities and helps us learn through our experiences. Taurus is ruled by Venus and Scorpio by Pluto but also Mars, Venus-Mars are the Cosmic Lovers of the Zodiac, so our intimate relationships are highlighted under this powerfully strong Full Moon, and things like our personal comfort and what we value and our sexuality is going to be super strong right now!

The Full Moon is the high point of the Moon cycle, and it is a time when the energies we started during the New Moon come into being. It is a highly emotional time but also a time of romance, relationships, and strong desires.

The Full Moon in Taurus can also be about abundance and helps remind us of what we already have. But there is a strong Venus/Uranus oppostion that will be very close to this Full Moon, and since Venus rules Taurus, this aspect can be quite significant. This is an awakening to what we are lacking in our life and our personal need to find a new way of doing something on our own, and for many of you issues around your personal security may come up, and concerning your work or career, and especially around your love life! Since the Sun, Mercury, and Jupiter are all in the sign of sex itself, Scorpio, issues around our sexuality can also show up now. We need to be doing something that helps us to enjoy ourselves and experience pleasure more often on a regular basis.

This Full Moon is also connected with Jupiter and is harmonizing with dreamy Neptune, as they get closer to make a exact beautiful Trine. This is some nice energy folks that emphasizes fertility (not just having babies), imagination, and those ah-ha moments of realizations or epiphanies that are magical! This energy can bring money, sudden windfalls and just random dumb luck!

This brings in a energy of generosity as our compassion and faith are stronger than usual, we are more willing to make personal sacrifices around what it is we believe in, if it’s for the higher good!

“Setting Intentions w/ the NEW MOON”

“Setting Intentions w/ the NEW MOON”
October 19th, 2017

 

There’s a New Moon occurring in Libra, Thursday, October 19th, which makes this the best time of the month to set some powerful intentions around your future goals with the Universe and work a little magic!

 

The Moon goes into the Void cycle around 2pm CST and 3pm EST Thursday afternoon, but it won’t switch signs until around 8:45pm CST and 9:45pm EST, and then will move into Taurus!

 

*Setting Intentions*

During a New Moon cycle, we should be asking the Universe for new beginnings, by planting seeds of intention from our heart and getting in touch with our higher-self. It’s a good time to be grateful for what we have and work on manifesting what energy we want to come in next. What I mean by that is we can create whatever it is we desire, such as a better life, more money, happiness, love, it doesn’t really matter, but we have to do some things to make it really happen. And no not everything you want is going to just magically appear. But at least you’ll be placed on the right path towards your destination!

 

By “Setting Intentions” with the energy of the New Moon, you’ve made it clear to the Universe what path you’d like to begin heading down and that’s a start. Then the energies will begin to line up to get you there.

 

The intentions that are set during a New Moon will set you on the right path towards your desires. The New Moon is a magical time of beginnings when you can recharge goals or set new ones. During the New Moon, we often experience an “energy shift.”

 

Here are some ideas on what to Manifest under a New Moon:

 

1. Get clear about something you want and write it down.

 

2. Share your intention with someone in a supportive way, and who will be encouraging.

 

3. Do something today to demonstrate your commitment to your intention.

 

4. Acknowledge that you did what you said you would, and then take the next step.

 

So have a conversation with the Universe (meaning your higher power, God, Source, Guides, Angels, etc), and ask the New Moons energy 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 be patient and simply allow the time needed, things don’t always happen right away, but we can get taken down certain paths to find our way to what it is we’re looking for… and sometimes magic just happens.

 

What if you don’t know how to “Set Intentions” under the New 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 New Moon work in. You’ll simply be 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 upon your guides, Angels, or higher power in and ask to have your sacred space cleared, 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 “New Moon” Ritual and again burn some special incense, light some candles (and colors of candles do have different energies and meanings), play some music that helps you feel spirituality connected. This can be very different for everyone. Just makes sure to use whatever colors or tools that make you feel calm, centered, happy, and peaceful.


Step Three: Setting Your Intentions-Making Wishes with the Moon

You’re going to need a notebook, paper, or a journal and something to write with. Think about where you’re going to do all this work at, because we create an energy vortex wherever we sit or sleep. This is mainly why you feel so good in your favorite chair, because it’s comfortable and feels safe and secure, but also because you have created an energy vortex in that spot.

Now write what energy you’d like the Universe to bring in. Simply write your deepest desires, wishes, and questions. Think about what energy you’re trying to manifest or create. Write a letter, like as if you are talking to an old friend. Think about what energy you’re trying to bring into your life and be detailed.

As you’re doing this work and setting your intentions, here are some helpful questions you can think about … for example; ask what you’re choosing or what changes you would like to see in your life? What are you or should you be calling in? How do you feel about what is happening in your life now, and what do you want to create? Think about your long-term goals and future and what you’d like that to look like over the next month. Be careful about focusing on the how, why, and when of your goals, focus more on what it is you’re wanting and how you want to feel. Let the Universe take care of the rest.


Step Four: Visualize

It’s time to visualize what you’ve written. Close your eyes and take long deep breaths, so 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 Soul-Mate, driving that new car. Just don’t think it, make sure and FEEL IT as if you were really experiencing what you’re visualizing.

Allow the Universe to show you which paths to follow over the next 30 days, and then allow the New Moon to light up those paths that you are supposed to be going down, so you may bring in what you truly desire, and let go of what you don’t want, it’s not serving your higher good and it’s blocking you from your desires.

“A Time For Healing”

April 1st 2015

“A Time For Healing”

Picture

Venus is love … and Chiron is our emotional wounds, they form a opportune aspect this week that influences the way we heal our emotional wounds, especially around relationships and with our self-worth. Some of us may lose control due to other astrological influences happening now, but it’s a good time to kiss and makeup in this energy. Even though most will experience this through their discussions and even arguments with a loving partner.

This aspect wants to help you heal your deeper fears of not being “good enough” or feeling not “worthy.” Healing can only happen when we are open to forgiving ourselves and others. Be compassionate, understanding and kind with others. Old emotional wounds can rise to the surface now, but these conversations don’t have to be negative or scary, some of you will feel almost liberated for getting some issues off your chest. If you feel like these issues are coming up for a reason, then you’re probably right. Pay attention to how they’re making you FEEL! Your emotions are trying to tell you that you’re reliving an old emotional wound, despite the fact that it’s probably with someone different or in a completely different situation. The point is the emotions you’re feeling can now be let go of and healed. Ask yourself, how do these feelings remind me of an old emotional wound I went through in the past?

If this makes sense then you’re already on your way to healing. So move forward and don’t get caught up in drama, remember we’re not here for too terribly long, forgive and forget, and then heal those past experiences that wounded you in the first place.

“Awakening”

“Awakening”
Uranus Slow Down

The planet Uranus, yes has a very funny name, but this planet is no joke! Just ask those who have had major surprises this last year, both good and bad! This planet is nicknamed the “Great Awakener” and has both positive and negative information to share with us.

Uranus is in fiery Aries and starts to slow down today… as it prepares for its Retrograde cycle (yes just like Mercury did, as all planets do) to begin July 30th, so anything that is related to the energy that Uranus brings will start to be affected now. So the question is … what is this planet trying to tell you or what information is it trying to give you?

The planet Uranus is all about breaking down the structures that are already in place but aren’t working anymore. This helps us to move forward and let go of any traditions that are worn out or outdated. So we can build new structures, such as in our Government, Healthcare, Medical facilities, and Education just to name a few.

Uranus is all about having FREEDOM, so we might have some serious AH-HA moments when it’s energy is strong …we can have amazing flashes of insight, as bright new ideas about how to change our lives come in…this energy is all about expecting nothing but the unexpected!

Uranus also governs electronics and technology, like the Internet. So don’t be surprised if you have some interruptions during this time, but usually it’s just quick fixes or annoying… unlike when Mercury crashes things down during its retrograde phase. Activities in Groups seem to be ruled by Uranus as well, so you might be drawn to joining a new cause or group of some sort that has like-minded people involved. Make sure and go with this energy, try not to fight it and pay attention as “The Great Awakener” tries to relay messages from the Universe to you!
