I share my thoughts on the Scorpio Full Moon this evening, April 23, 2024, at 7:49 pm eastern daylight time. Lots to talk about. Metamorphic challenge and support, individuation, reclaiming who we are to bring balance back, starting a new cycle as a new I Am.If You Prefer VideoYou can find the video version to my <a href="https://youtu.be/I03a_Rp1NKQ" rel="nofollow">YouTube</a> channel.Where Else You Can Find Me<ul><li>I post astrology articles on my <a href="https://astrologyjournal.substack.com/" rel="nofollow">Astrology Journal</a> Substack</li><li>I post videos on my <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPTmDIFk-IfDqO4QUeA1Kgw/" rel="nofollow">YouTube</a> channel </li></ul>Credit<a href="https://pixabay.com/photos/butterfly-birth-cocoon-summer-2128195/" rel="nofollow">Image</a> on cover thumb by <a href="https://pixabay.com/users/kevincodeforclt-2794506/?utm_campaign=image&utm_content=2128195&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=link-attribution" rel="nofollow">kevin ryan</a> from <a href="https://pixabay.com//?utm_campaign=image&utm_content=2128195&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=link-attribution" rel="nofollow">Pixabay</a>

Scorpio Full Moon | New Level of Being

I came across an interesting bit of history, the story of which I wanted to share because I think it’s relevant to our times and to the upcoming eclipse. I will post the final article in the sign series next week.The story is that of the establishment of the Iroquois Confederacy, the Native American nation on which our US democracy is modeled. My telling of the story follows what is told in the first 11:30 minutes of the video, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbhudH1xhyY" rel="nofollow">The Hidden Mysteries Of Ancient Native American Civilizations | 1491: Before Columbus | Timeline</a>. The theme of this story, in my opinion, is “anything is possible” or, alternatively, “miracles happen”.The article by Bruce McClure that I mention in the video is called <a href="https://earthsky.org/human-world/solar-eclipse-marks-beginning-of-iroquois-confederacy/" rel="nofollow">The eclipse that marked the start of the Iroquois Confederacy</a>.<h2>For the Charts and Video Version</h2>For the charts and for NASA&#39;s map of the eclipses, see my post on <a href="https://astrologyjournal.substack.com/p/d1181bfe-7bc9-40bc-a23e-ddf1d22dbeb8" rel="nofollow">Substack</a>.

Some thoughts on the March 25, 2024 Lunar Eclipse and the April 8, 2024 Solar Eclipse. Also, I go over a way to begin reading charts by just looking at the distribution of planets on the wheel.Note that it may be better to watch this on YouTube so you can see the charts.

Note: I forgot to publish this episode here when I published it on YouTube so am doing so now.In the Mars in Aquarius video, I talked about the sextile aspect.

Which Opportunities Are We Ready for?

Mars in Aquarius

I had some shifts in the first few days after Pluto&#39;s ingress into Aquarius that gave me some insights into Pluto in Aquarius&#39; energy. While Pluto moving into Aquarius is an important shift, the energy of Taurus is also relevant to the archetype and, I believe, the energy that will help ground us through this time.<h3>Video Option</h3>If you prefer video, I uploaded a video version on <a href="https://youtu.be/ffjmURNSwPA" rel="nofollow">Youtube</a>.<h3>Correction</h3>At the 07:48 mark, talking about the symbol for Cancer, I said, &#34;You can see that as the arms holding the mother.&#34; I meant to say, &#34;You can see that as the mother&#39;s arms holding the child.&#34;<h3>Updates</h3>Jan 23, 2023<ul><li>Just caught another mis-speak.

Pluto in Aquarius | Refuge Within

I became aware of a core value this morning that I hadn&#39;t been aware of before. This awareness gave me insight into the astrological energies at play right now and that will be continuing as Pluto moves into Aquarius on January 20th/21st and Uranus stations direct the following week.In the podcast, I focus mostly on Taurus and the theme of core values we might be awakening to and how important they are for our well-being and stability.

Aquarius and Taurus | Awakening to Our Core Values

As Mercury, ruler of commerce, moves into Capricorn, ruler of habits, patterns, and structures, we have the opportunity to become aware of how we have created business structures that are out of alignment with Love. At the same time, we have the opportunity to become aware of new business practices that are in alignment with Love.In the podcast, I mentioned Mark Silver&#39;s book, Heart-Centered Business: Healing from toxic business culture so your small business can thrive. You can find information about his book and his work on his website: https://www.heartofbusiness.com/ I posted a video version of this episode on my Youtube channel.

This morning, I became aware of a childhood habit pattern I grooved. This awareness gave me insight into Mercury&#39;s ingress into Capricorn coming up on January 13th or 14th 2024, depending on where you are in the world.More thoughts:I don&#39;t think I mentioned the South Node in Libra, but that has to do with past patterns in relationships and so that is what I was drawing on when talking about how I didn&#39;t focus on building skill there.If you want to watch the video version of this episode, you can do so on Youtube: https://youtu.be/uaKlfreh1jsFor my first thoughts on the New Moon in Capricorn, see the following:<ul><li>Video version (Youtube): https://youtu.be/ZevZk4A-3po</li><li>Audio version (Substack): https://open.substack.com/pub/astrologyjournal/p/capricorn-new-moon-evolutionary-challenge?r=envx6&amp;utm_campaign=post&amp;utm_medium=web&amp;showWelcome=true</li></ul> My newsletter: astrologyjournal.substack.com Images in the thumb are from Pixabay, pre-2019.
