Feed Your Moon

 

Feed Your Moon

A starving Moon can plummet your emotions

 

Astrologically, at the root of depression, I believe, is a starving Moon. If your natal lunar needs are not being met then the rest of your horoscope has a difficult time functioning. I have always said this to my clients and have found it to be true over and over again. The Moon is our instinctive feeling nature. It’s where we feel safest, most nourished, and nurtured. The Moon represents the deepest needs we have as individuals.

Stifle someone’s Moon and you’re stifling their emotional well-being. PERIOD.

I’m going through a mild postpartum depression episode these days, my friends. No, I didn’t just have a baby. I did, however, recently take home a three month old puppy. Unless you’ve been through postpartum depression, you may not relate to the feelings of sadness that accompany what is supposed to be such an incredibly joyful event. I did suffer through postpartum depression with the birth of my first child, almost sixteen years ago. It was one of the darkest times of my life and I don’t ever want to go there again.

At the root of my depressive episodes is always a starving Moon. I was born with the Moon in Sagittarius, in the 8th House of Depth and Transformation. My Moon is closely conjunct Neptune, square my 12th house Jupiter in Pisces, and trine my 12th house Venus in Aries.

In English? With the Moon in Sagittarius my overwhelming need is to have freedom of movement to expand my horizons, pursue the deeper meaning of life, and experience adventures. I also need to spread my wisdom on deep psychological (8th house) and metaphysical matters (Sagittarius) so that I might heal (8th house) and inspire others (Sagittarius). The Moon next to Neptune and square Jupiter in Pisces in the 12th house speaks to my deep, over-exaggerated need for alone time and privacy; for peace. And the trine to Venus helps me experience pockets of joy in those moments of helping to heal the suffering of others.

Making space

With the birth of my son I was suddenly put in this prison that is otherwise known as motherhood. I realize it’s a dramatic statement for some to read but please, understand my needs and my visceral reaction. I felt that all of my freedom was suddenly gone. That I would never again have the time or peace and quiet or personal space to pursue the interests that fed my soul.

It had nothing to do with loving my son. I loved him with all of my soul. But it had everything to do with not being able to blend my new life of chaotic motherhood with getting my lunar needs met. I would nurse my son and look at him so peaceful and I would cry. I would cry because I felt very much at the time that making sure he had all of his needs met came at the sacrifice of my own needs.

It took time but after about eight months the depression went away. I adjusted to motherhood and I found ways to feed my Moon in little ways. What really helped me was that my ex-mother-in-law would watch my son for me for a few hours each week so I could have my “alone time” and do whatever I needed to in order to nourish my soul. My Moon. Having the freedom to go out without the shackles of baby stuff was really all I needed at the time.

Nourish yourself

And here I am now, with this little adorable puppy, feeling a lot like I felt all those years ago. The difference? Now I know Astrology and I know exactly what I need to do in order to make sure the depression doesn’t get worse.

For the puppy, for my children and most importantly, for myself I have to feed my Moon. Are you a caregiver?  Then remember to put your oxygen mask on first. Otherwise, how can you take care of anyone else?

What is your Moon sign? What house does it live in your horoscope? And what are the aspects that the Moon makes to the rest of your chart? Learn more about this and you’ll make sure that you never starve. Happy Moon equals happy life.

Shuffling The Deck, Your Past, Present & Future Reading for Today

 

Past Influence whose impact on your life is waning.

The Moon

Although men have stepped upon the moon and scientists have analyzed it almost endlessly, there remains in our collective unconscious a vision of the moon that shrouds it in mystery. And why wouldn’t there be? Being earth’s closest neighbor, having a clear influence on many of earth’s cycles and constantly changing in appearance, it is only fitting that our ancestors endlessly pondered and speculated on our magnificent moon’s powers. The Moon represents the pure feminine nature and the gateway to understanding the mystical world that cannot be explained by science. Its soft glow provides a gentle light in the darkness of night. Metaphorically, the powers associated with the moon supply the seeker with a light to explore the mystical aspects of our world. It empowers the sense of wonder in those open to psychic adventures.

 

Present Influence whose impact on your life is very strong

The Crow

The Crow is the trusted messenger that alerts its allies to both danger and opportunity. Although they may appear playful and too opportunistic to be trusted, Crows are in fact powerful and trustworthy. The Crow sees and hears all. When The Crow reports it is best to listen as their news is always important and presented accurately.

 

 

Future influence whose impact on your life is growing and will be very strong in the future.

The Open Door

The Open Door signifies the presence of new opportunities. However, to reap the benefits of these prospects you will have to move beyond where you are now–forsake the comforts and safety of your current life and head out in new directions. Moves like those symbolized by The Open Door require courage, because fresh opportunities signify the chance of gain, but do not guarantee they will be realized. Regardless of the benefits that may be reaped, with the transitions like those required to explore these new found opportunities, something is always lost. Before launching on a voyage down new paths it is a good idea to objectively assess your current state of being and decide whether what you have now is worth jeopardizing.

Your Witches Rune for May 6th is The Moon

Today’s Witches Rune

The Moon

Meaning: Differently from the Sun, the Moon has more subtle powers. While it can represent changes too – after all, the moon changes it face a bit every day – these are usually much slower and long-term than the ones represented by the Sun. It’s feminine and passive.

As the rules of the nighttime, the Moon often symbolizes a transition time, in which things are not yet defined or very clear. It may represents lack of information and bad timing – any action done under the influence of the Moon may not go as expected because of that. Just like the moon influences the tides of our planet, it also influences our inner water – our emotions – causing a bit of emotional instability. This often inspires us to act without pondering.

The Moon works with undercurrents, it shows hidden developments or things done in the shadows. All secrets are protected by the Moon, and it its most negative manifestation this rune can stand for lies, deceit and even self-sabotage.

The Moon is also associated with the female cycles, thus it may represent pregnancy, family, roots and ancestors. When the Moon appears, there’s a strong need to go back to your roots in order to find comfort and understanding. It often symbolizes that you have to find yourself a safe place to wait, like a newborn in the womb… You have to be patient.

I relationship readings, the Moon can represent a strong sexual attraction (specially with the Romance rune), secret affairs, hidden and contained impulses and secrets. Although it adds strength to the attraction, it does not add speed, so the Moon can often represent that almost unbearable tension that builds between two people during a long period of time. It can also represent a certain instability in the relationship, with moments of closeness and moments of separation.

Tarot Card of the Day

 

The Moon


April 28th, 2015
What has traditionally been known as the Moon card refers to a deep state of sensitivity and imaginative impressionability, developed within a womb of deep relaxation. Here we dream and go into trance, have visions and receive insights, wash in and out with the psychic tides, and experience deep mystical and/or terrifying realities beyond our ordinary senses. The full moon and/or eclipse cycle charted by the Magi (as in some of the earliest Moon card images) exemplify this as a mechanism that Nature uses to expand consciousness.

The variants of the courtly lovers (representing skillful use of the sex force) or the man sleeping it off under the tree (use of drugs to alter consciousness) are also traditional avenues for tapping this primal force. Human interest in higher states propels us to the frontiers of consciousness, where we cannot always control what happens. The Moon card represents the ultimate test of a soul’s integrity, where the membrane between self and the Unknown is removed, and the drop of individuality reenters the Ocean of Being. What transpires next is between a soul and its Maker.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, April 27th

 

Aries 

It may be difficult to truly and richly connect with someone today, Aries, as much as you may want to. People’s reactions to you may pull at your insecurities or undermine your confidence. While the temptation today is to either pull into yourself in reaction or to try too hard, but neither will serve you well. Finding a middle ground is best. Even better, tend to your own needs, please yourself, and at the same time keep yourself open and approachable enough that if others want to join in, they are able to. There can be a lot on your plate today, but emotions tend to sap you of some of the energy and motivation to deal with your duties. However, if you accept that this is not one of your better days and simply make the best of it, you can feel quite satisfied by the end of the day.

Taurus

This is not the best day for confidence, Taurus, and you could find that doors are not really opening for you as readily as they have been. This is a brief, transitory influence. While people may not be rushing to help you out today, this does give you the opportunity to discover that you’re quite fine at helping yourself. However, important decisions about money, friendship, and business should probably wait, as you may not be in touch with what you truly want and value right now. You might also have to deal with others’ criticism or scrutiny.

Gemini

You could be temporarily questioning a few things today, Gemini, with Venus in your sign and challenged by Chiron pulling out latent insecurities and vulnerabilities. It’s in fact a good time for getting to know what you truly want and value, but it may feel a little awkward along the way. You are suddenly seeing relationships and people in terms of your differences rather than your similarities, and you might also feel that people in authority, such as bosses or parents, seem to be judging you or seeing you for your faults. This is temporary and can point you to areas that require more attention, and possibly some toughening up. Past mistakes are unlikely to repeat if you allow yourself to truly see them and learn from them.

Cancer

You could feel a little let down in your social or love life today, Cancer, or interactions with others tend to pull up past hurts and current insecurities. For some, a delayed reaction to a disappointing situation can occur now. At the moment, you may not be seeing things very clearly. If you’re truly uncomfortable, then do pull yourself out, but watch that you don’t withdraw and deny yourself important experiences only because you are protecting yourself from experiencing old hurts. Remind yourself that the past doesn’t have to repeat itself, particularly if you have been honest with yourself and learned from your earlier experiences. Talking things through with a trusted friend can be helpful.

Leo

You might experience some disagreements or confusion over money or shared resources today, Leo. You should also take extra care of your valuables right now. Disappointments are possible today, and you may be seeing a friend in a less than flattering light. Try to avoid reacting by either pulling out or overdoing, as neither approach will get you closer to what you want. While situations today could remind you on some level of past upsets or hurts, they also have something to teach you, as the past doesn’t always have to repeat itself. Today is good for working on business strategies, which tend to come naturally to you.

Virgo

The Moon is in your sign all day, Virgo, and you want to do things your way. You tend to let your emotions lead under this influence. While you could feel blocked by a significant other, or possibly vaguely guilty about going your own way, for the most part, good energy is with you for learning and venturing out and about. Later today, take extra care when choosing your words if you are making a statement in a more formal setting, but avoid the temptation to people-please too much. When judging the value of things, people, and relationships today, you may very well either overshoot or undershoot the mark, so save important decisions for a clearer time.

Libra

Focus on healing, processing, and unwinding if possible today, Libra, with the Moon in the sign behind yours all day. It’s a monthly period for catching your breath and refreshing your emotions and connection with your inner world. Later today, if a belief or opinion has you worked up, try your best to let it go if it begins to truly interfere with your day. It can be difficult to rise your thoughts above the small problems in your life, but you’ll do better for yourself if you disengage or withdraw just a little right now. This is not the best day for recognition or positive feedback. Try to let that go as well. Aim to enjoy time with yourself rather than bemoan it.

Scorpio

There can be a “two steps forward, one step back” feeling to the day, Scorpio. You have a good sense that you’re going somewhere and progressing, but there can be some emotional backstepping. This needn’t be too difficult – simply keep in mind that it is difficult to see what you truly want and value when insecurities or guilt are involved, as they likely are today when it comes to intimate and relationship matters. You can be feeling a little vulnerable on a creative level as well, and more inclined to hide your light than share it, just for now. Please yourself today, and avoid a tendency to overdo pleasing someone, as it won’t get you into a better position. The Moon’s presence in your solar eleventh house pulls you towards light connections and networking as a form of emotional detox, and it can certainly help.

Sagittarius 

Today, there can be some issues with insecurities, particularly related to family or a significant other, Sagittarius. Learn to recognize insecurity or guilt in your own behavior, even if you’ve disguised it well from yourself! There can be some awkwardness or off timing in relationships today, but these are temporary. Avoid bending over backwards just to please someone. You can be very emotionally focused on performing, and your ambitions are to the fore. It may be difficult to tune out emotional distractions today, but if you manage to take a step by step approach, you can be rather productive despite this.

Capricorn

Activities that break the routine, even if they are simply played out in the mind, are emotionally satisfying today, Capricorn. After a couple of days in a deeper place emotionally, you are now in need of seeing some light. You may be dealing with some level of chaos or trying to resist a temptation to flee and escape your responsibilities. You could also be dealing with vagueness in the people around you, which is frustrating, or uncertain instructions with your work or studies. Insecurities about work or relationships can come to the fore now.

Aquarius

There is a tendency to need to pull into yourself in order to gain emotional strength today, Aquarius. Introspection can do you some good now, but if you get into a doubting, overthinking frame of mind, then you’ll need to recognize when too much is too much! Insecurities, particularly related to money or your own value, can be stimulated today. Indecisiveness can weigh on you. Commitments and conclusions should wait for another time, if possible. However, you can find quite a bit of support and unconditional acceptance from people closest to you today, and if someone you care about thinks the world of you, let that in and allow it to fill you up. The next couple of days are strong for building up confidence.

Pisces

You are especially focused on, and sensitive to, the needs of important people in your life today, Pisces. The Moon has moved into your opposing sign (Virgo), and this can stimulate a stronger awareness of your feelings for others, as well as parts of your life that have come out of balance. However, a challenging aspect between Venus and Chiron in your sign can stimulate your vulnerabilities and insecurities today, and you can have a hard time getting close, either mentally or emotionally or both, to someone as a result. Difficult problems from the past can be remembered now, complicating things further. This may not be the best day for having your needs met, but you would do well for yourself if you examine what it is you truly need.

Key Words: Magick, dreams, health, love, home and family In the word Monday, we can see part of the word Moon.

In the romance languages such as Italian or Spanish, this day of the week is called Lunes and clearly relates to the word lunar.

On Mondays, a variety of magick may be worked. Because Monday centers on the energies of the Moon, things like psychism, dreams, feminine energy, health, success in spiritual pursuits, domestic matters, and things of family origin are especially important this day. Mondays are best for love magick and anything concerning home or family, thus old saying, Mondays child is fair of face, which seems clearly to relate to the themes of love and health.

Angels of Monday are Gabriel, Arcan, Missabu, and Abuzaha. Arcan is known as the king of the angels of air and the “ruler” of Monday. Abuzaha (Abuzohar) serves Monday, and is very responsive to invocations and ritual magick.

Missabu is a ministering angel of Arcan. Check whether the moon is waning or waxing to determine what your spell will be. During waning moons, do spells to rid yourself of obstacles or for wisdom and protection. During waxing moons do magic for increase of any kind or to draw something into your life. On Mondays, the best hour to work is moonrise.
