In the morning, the Capricorn full moon brings to manifestation intentions set during June 17’s Gemini new moon. At that time, we were encouraged to experiment; to develop new skill sets, and explore new curiosities. Our social circle was expanded. Our openness to putting ourselves out there allowed us to investigate a variety of ideas, without necessarily needing to commit to one. Yet under today’s moon, we are more serious-minded and sensible. We might have finally found the pursuit that we want to invest our energy into. On an emotional level, we require more stability now. We want to know that our endeavors are purposeful, not frivolous. If we are to be successful, we must narrow down our engagements to those with the most potential. The full moon trines Jupiter in Taurus, suggesting that we’ve hit upon an enterprise that will not only be lucrative, but will continue to inspire us the more involved we become! However, the moon’s opposition to Mercury can also make us a bit anxious. We may wonder whether we’re making too hasty of a decision. Try not to stress too much about this. If your current plan doesn’t pan out, you can always change your mind at a later time! Just promise to give this initiative a real chance. The results are likely to be far better than you can currently conceive!
The cosmic weather is then quiet until the late afternoon, when the moon squares off with Chiron in Aries, stimulating sensitivities. Full moons can be an emotional time. We’re wrestling with the tides in our own bodies, but everyone around us is too! It’s no surprise that someone might project their personal issues onto us or levy unfair insults. Naturally, these clashes can be triggering, as they seem to confirm our deepest-held insecurities. Yet, today’s challenge can be constructive if we see it as an opportunity to question why we allow external criticisms to wound us.
