The Moon in Capricorn conjunct Pluto in Capricorn at 2:32 PM EST. Lunar aspects have an 'orb of influence' of 12 to 14 hours 'before' and 'after' their exactness.

Today we experience three (3) completely different lunar aspects, which means our emotions get to change from this, to that, to THAT, all within a few hours. See time stamps above for the sextile, square and then conjunction. And since lunar (moon) aspects have an 'orb of influence' before and after their exactness, then you can see the aspects energies are overlapping each other. This not only means your emotions will go from one energy to another, so will everyone else's AND YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW THEIR CHART! How 'bout that? You only know your chart and maybe a few other people that you may or may not even see today.

Here's something to drill into your astrological skull . . the Moon rules THE PAST . . not like Pisces and it's ruling planet Neptune, which rules the past, as in karma and skeletons in the closet and what you don't want others to see or know about you from what you did. Dun, dun, dunnnn . . but the Moon rules the past like memorabilia, antiques, nostalgia, memories, childhood and the biological and psychological foundation.

It's also important to remember the Moon rules our emotions, feelings, moods and sensitivities and the Moon ALWAYS relates to the mother, home, family, childhood and our biological and psychological foundation. Always! It's always 'mother' energy or that which is in our head, depending on the aspects to the Moon in your chart. The Moon tells us about 'the mother' and what our emotional side looks like.

It's no secret, I have a Capricorn Moon, so it would be an easy guess to ask, "Hey, was your mom in the military?" I would say, "Yes indeed she was. She was in the U.S. Army." Remember back in the day, as a kid, you might have heard from a childhood enemy, "Your mom wears combat boots!" I would say, "Yeah she did and my mom can beat up your mom." My Capricorn Moon coupled with Mars in Leo ain't afraid of YOU! This is also why when Astrotators out there start calling me names or respond with sarcasm, you have no idea how much their words do 'not' land on my bones. My Capricorn Moon could give a damn and my tone pretty much reflects that and then I have to dial down because my Mars in Leo would eat them alive. I had to learn to dial it down and be a grown-up because Capricorn is the grown-up energy. Plus, I'm a yogi now. (winky wink) And when you can control your own emotions, no one controls you. Ya' get me? When someone gets angry and spits names at me, that's their emotions going off the rails, not mine.

We are always a reflection of that lunar influence and how we experienced the mother. Then we grow up and our emotions, feelings, moods and sensitivities become a reflection of her whether we attempt to be just like the mother, or if we do everything in our power not to be like the mother. Either way, the mother is with us every single day in our emotional responses - emotions, feelings, moods and sensitivities.

The easiest way out of the emotional lunar trap is to be the best version of your Moon. How 'bout that? What if you strived to be the best version of your Moon? Well that's an interesting idea. You might be one (1) of several siblings and each of you have a different Moon and each of you will have a different take or relationship with the mother. It's your path, your Life, your experience, your dream, your relationship. It's a 'get to'. You 'get to' to strive to be the best version of that Moon and here is 'your' example in this Lifetime . . . your mother. Deal with it. Good, bad or indifferent, this experience is on your path and your siblings may or may not agree according to their Moon and aspects. You can waste your time complaining about it or you can do better or you can strive to be just like her. It's all your choice, but your consciousness is important here. Everyone is busy waking up now . . how about wake up about your emotions, feelings, moods and sensivities. Get woke on that!

Check-in with yourself to see how you act and react when things do not go as you imagined. I use the word 'imagined' deliberately here as I'm usually pretty deliberate about my word choice. This imagining comes from the imagination we created in our mind about what the scenario 'should' or 'should not' look like. Then we act and react according to our imagination from our past (childhood). When your emotions, feelings, moods and sensitivities shoot off, be with the awareness because that is Good stuff to use to correct yourself, not others. Heck, they didn't shoot off, YOU DID! Well maybe they did, but you didn't have to. Choice from childhood baby! If you are not conscious and 'woke' then your actions and reactions can result in perpetuating the cycle you were trying so desperately to avoid. RATS!

I can be talking to a 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 or even older client and during that conversation the client will ALWAYS mention a parent. Always! The classic line is usually, "Well when I growing up I was taught . . . " and my response is usually along the lines of, "You aren't a child anymore and now its your game, your rules, your Life!" Whatever you were taught, you built on 'that'. Wow wee, that first 17 or 18 years we spend with the parent is so incredibly crucial. The childhood abuses, hurts, pains, strains, issues, problems never seem to really go away unless we 'consciously' live our lives in the present, not the past.

You get 'woke'. We attempt to do this day in and day out on the yoga mat, to be in ourselves and not someone else or their Life. It's a daily attempt to live a Life of being 'woke'. Otherwise, you could end up mad at the world and everyone in your family because of your choices . . because of their choices. Oh that damn perpetuating cycle. And I get it, some of you are living with or are caretakers for your mother (or father or both) and this is the path of the Moon (and Saturn) if your father is an issue.

So my dear Astrotators. Dig deeper into your own emotional responses as the Moon sextiles Neptune (heightened and super-intuition) . . . the Moon squares Mars (uh oh, lookin' for a fight) . . . and the Moon conjuncts Pluto (eeek, intense, drama, brewing, overbearing women, bully). Now use your 'wokeness' and 'imagination' . . . meaning your present and your awareness of past memories that are causing you to act and react as you CHOOSE. Ouch! Mom make her stop!

I will leave you today with this lesson. Astrologers ALWAYS write Daily Horoscopes according to where the Moon is because the Moon is the fastest moving celestial body, which changes signs every 2 to 2-1/2 days. So we write horoscopes according to where the Moon is and when there is a major aspect like Venus sextile Saturn yesterday, then we throw that in there since it happened on that day. Of course I always throw in the 'orb of influence' of applying and separating degrees, which I also put into your Expansive Natal Charts and Solar Returns. Saturn changes signs tomorrow, as it moves out of Capricorn and into Aquarius. Saturn changes signs every 2-1/2 to 3 years. Compare that to the Moon, which changes signs every 2 to 2-1/2 days. So you see, the Moon, which rules our emotions, feelings, moods and sensitivities really messes with us day in and day out. Sometimes we are all freakin' crazy!

TIMESTAMP 8:00 AM EST - WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 16, 2020

I am getting a lot of messages asking about the 2021 Void of Course Moon Calendar. You only see the 2020 Void of Course Moon Calendar in the Holistic Shop. The last several years I had a lot of people ask for me to create it several months early. So I did. Three years ago I posted it in November 2017. Two years ago I posted it in October 2018. Last year I posted it July 2019. And pretty much only a handful, like a couple of people bought it early. What I learned was, even though we want something early, we aren't ready to let go of $12.00 until the last minute. LOL! So I will have it ready to post within the next week.

I will also do my best to get some commentary posted if there is something commentary-able. I teach three (3) yoga classes a day, every day, and two (2) classes on Saturday and Sunday. And I write charts and do readings, sometimes it's 6:00 PM and I wonder where the day went and then all I want to do is pet my cat, 'Tabby Pants'.

You can take Virtual Yoga Classes with me (or any of the teachers at my yoga studio) even if you live on the other side of the world, and you don't even have to turn your camera on if you don't want to. We hold the classes on Zoom and I teach 7 days a week. Some days more than others. One thing I won't be doing anymore is sitting on my ass. I work on the website, then get up and teach a yoga class. Then I sit down and work again, then get up and teach other class. It's the bestest in the worldest. We have awesome Deals - $19 Video's on Demand . . . $49 Unlimited LIVE classes . . . or try 3 LIVE ZOOM classes for $20. Then I'll throw you a wonderful deal if you came to the mat by way of this website. (winky wink)

A single drop-in virtual class on ZOOM is $10 or you can purchase a 6, 10 or 20 class card. We have all kinds of options and I am also offering Advanced Yoga Teacher Training - 100 Hour Certifications in Yin and/or Restorative Yoga, as well as I have a Pose-itively Yoga Mentorship Program. Check out the website www.Pose-itivelyYoga.com - purely and positively, yoga!
