Practical Imagination

We celebrate our first Lunar Lady light show of 2012 under a Full Moon in Cancer, which is ready to let your imagination flow! While our Sun is still in practical Capricorn, feelings surrounding this lunation are here to balance how we can go with our gut and still be stable and patient enough to trust our instinct for this next waning phase. The 4th Full Moon in a row at the 18th degree of the sign, get ready for more intense release in the life where The Crab cozies up at home.

Moon enters Cancer
Saturday 07 January, 4:05pm EST to Monday 09 January, 11:35pm EST
We can be quite influenced by our environments under a Cancer Moon passage, as the Moon is right at home in it’s native sign. Steering clear of reacting with moodiness but responding with a well-developed and active instinct will allow your imagination to let go of what is no longer necessary in this area of the life. The capacity to cherish and relive experiences is strong under any Cancer Moon, but beware of that typical Crab tendency to hold on too tight to the past. Pulling into the Sun in Capricorn’s ability to go slow and listen to reason brings one right back to center.

Full Moon, 2:30am EST 09 January, 18 degrees Cancer
Reflection mode is now being requested where 18 degrees Cancer falls in your Zodiac Pie, indicating the area of life you ideally should focus through our next New Moon in Aquarius 23 January. Naturally, your Cancer ruled house will bring pull to the opposite house the Sun is current transiting through in Capricorn. Be sure to note this other area of life that is equally part of your star advice- pointing how to manifest personal balance, and where some new beginnings are in their own ambitious stages right now.

For the Collective
Our first Full Moon of 2012 within Cancer casts a sympathetic, sensitive, and passive mood upon the collective. Getting domesticated, enjoying the feminine and basking in the glory of the home, family and good food so pleases a Cancer vibration. With a little friendly motivation coming from Mars in Virgo, there is plenty of logic tied into helping the imagination from running too wild. One easily can find the path to making sense of what this lunation from the The Crab is requesting should be let go of in the life.

This month, as we arrive at the 18th degree of the sign to do so, we see the 4th lunation in a row at this degree point. We started this pattern back with the last Full Moon in Aries upon 11 October 2011. Take a look at this third of your Zodiac Pie from Aries to Cancer. Here is where there has been a “no turning back” energy offering itself over these past months. As the 18 represents adapting to a spiritual nature over a materialistic one, we are wise to keep this in mind as our conclusions here continue to play out.

LUNAR-O-SCOPE, Full Moon in Cancer 2012
For the collective horoscope, again we offer advice for every sign from the outer vantage point. Remember, if you know your Rising Sign (Ascendant), read that passage too, for it typically will apply to your personal charts’ advice, more so if the earlier degrees of it. Keep in mind, the exact casting of the natal birth chart determines a precise perspective of how the current transits of the planets personally and specifically affect you.

Aries: Even though the career presses you hard at present- there is attention you are wise to devote to the nest egg and family. Focus upon realigning your sense of comfort and security is time well spent. Anything within the home that you’ve been procrastinating about cleaning, now is your perfect opportunity! Don’t ignore the deja-vu that may come up, these contain important messages that wish to nurture you. New friends, hopes and dreams are on the way soon.

Taurus: Stop clinging to that worn out idea. Uproot the past, and find healthy channels for your imagination to regroup. Gear-up for some new career sparks that will need the room to unfold by the next New Moon. Siblings and neighbors may call to you now- whatever is unsettled in these areas, work them out in your patient way. This is a great time for taking pen to paper, and being your creativity is motivated these days, you’ll be happy you can look back again to remember it.

Gemini: There is a possession in your life you should logically throw out, or better yet, give away to charity. Time to let your reflection bask in what you hold dear -for what you think is absolutely secure may not be- and release that old worn out value. You’ll be making room for some better philosophies to come into play shortly. Won’t you be all the happier, having more room to let your beliefs unite and shine like the MINI GEM that you already are?

Cancer: It’s your month Dear Crab to be in the Lunar spotlight of reflection. There’s an entirely different emotional standpoint you’re meant to nurture from. Check those approaches, for the room you make now allows a pretty intense rebirth to initiate by the next New Moon. While steering clear of being selfish, focus on you before others. People are tired of seeing this worn-out mask you wear to the world, as there isn’t any more security left for you to hide behind.

Leo: Carefully examine the depths within your truest sense of transcendence. The subconscious wishes to purge. Pick up with your dream journal, for your nighttime ones have a plenty to say to you about your waking world right now. Preparing you for some new one-on-one relationships to blossom soon enough, these two weeks will result in a serious alteration within your inner world, but it’s up to you to recognize what no longer needs to be in your own royal court here.

Virgo: Worried about friends or a group? If you’re holding on to someone or something that doesn’t serve you, you’re just going to get more and more nit-picky. Possibly there may be a hope or a wish unfulfilled here, so it may be time to move on. Use that Mercurial logic of yours and make the right choice, and by the next New Moon, you’ll be ready to serve others better than ever before. Should a spontaneous social invitation present itself, don’t shy away from it.

Libra: It’s time to stop relating to what no longer is necessary within your career and public life anymore. If not now, Saturn will make sure you listen to reason later, and that just might tip your Scales a little too much for your taste. Take some time in the next two weeks and revisit how you care about what you do- what needs refreshing? This ultimately allows the room for some new innovations to be able to emerge within your creative nature by the next New Moon.

Scorpio: Relinquish a worn out philosophy. While you are well adapted to surrendering to regeneration, rest assured by the next New Moon there will be some invigorating energy stirring within your home and sense of security, so make the necessary room now for it. Try on an educational review; reflect upon a recent trip, spiritual quest, or how you’ve recently expanded within your life. These kinds of probes unravel another mystery you’ve been waiting to solve.

Sagittarius: Now that your recent Solar Eclipse initiations are finally moving forward, there still are more regenerative energies that await to find you. So put down your arrow and realize your aim should focus upon reflection within your wealth, other people’s money, and how you ultimately transform. Gain scope of everything surrounding you- for what you restore now and dispose of has your thinking and mentality emerging your best ideas yet by the next New Moon.

Capricorn: Excellence, like all else you do in life, also applies to your relationships. If there is a memory of one that no longer works weighing you down emotionally- let it wash away with the tide. Arrive at conclusions here with any one-on-one. Yes, old Goat, it is tough that tradition could be broken but that’s the toil. Whether they stay or go, it’s your journey of perfection. By the next New Moon, you’ll see exactly what this makes room for within all that you value in life.

Aquarius: There’s always a way you are looking to bring new life to things- best now take this to your health, habits, and that friendly way you enjoy helping others. Didn’t stick to your original resolutions? Shhh… we won’t tell but you have one more opportunity to revamp your regimes and routines. Examine how you really bring service to others: what can be improved? By the New Moon, innovative and fresh approaches find you, so reflect well upon your daily life now.

Pisces: Your psychic powers do not deceive you, so what’s not been working for you creatively lately? You are wise to revisit the ways you nurture your lovely sensitivity and all it wants to initiate. An on-going creative adventure completes itself. Swim swiftly to improvements to your channels of creation, just IMAGINE them: I AM IN A MEGA MAGI GAIN! Children may also desire you to pause amongst your vast ocean and tread some water with them for a while.
