Welcome to a new year and some great astrology. We kick off the New Year with a new moon in Capricorn at 19 degrees on 10th January 2016 at 1.31 am, retrograding the ominous Uranus-Pluto square, a potential ouch. But with the Sun and Moon trining abundant Jupiter at...
This month’s full moon is in Cancer at 11.13 am on 25th December 2015, Christmas Day. This makes for some potentially intense lunchtime cooking, as all full moons generate high emotions. Yet fortunately this is a kinder full moon than most. With Mercury trine Jupiter,...
This month’s new moon is on 11th December 2015 at 10.31 am in Sagittarius 19 degrees. The big news is that we have an intense Mars square Pluto opposite Uranus at this new moon. As Mars is one of the slower personal planets this configuration has been building up and...
This full moon in Gemini at 10.45 pm on Wednesday 25th November 2015 is an interesting full moon, highlighting the current square from the dominant Saturn-Neptune square. This square (with other aspects) is creating much of the recent unrest that we’ve seen in...
This month’s new moon is in Scorpio on 11th November 2015 at 5.49 pm GMT. Entering Scorpio our minds turn towards releasing what’s outdated, in particular old deeply contained material held in our bodies. Scorpio time is a time of having those difficult conversations,...

Right now we are yearning for balance, love and harmony to feel emotionally stable. The sensitivity we feel during the previous Virgo Moon transit is still here, but this sensitivity tends to affect our relationships. We may be needing others right now, we may need reflection. It's often a time when we are feeling more sociable. In our desire for harmony, we can swallow our own feelings in order to protect the feelings of our loved ones, and with any air element Moon transit, there’s a feeling of being a little detached from emotions. This is a time to reflect on yourself and your relationships. You may be indecisive right now, but you can weigh any difficult situation up in great detail. This is a great time to come back to what makes you feel balanced, whether it be a spiritual practise that helps open your heart or a supportive relationship that makes you feel connected to yourself and others. Take the time to reconnect.
