Strong desires, especially sexual yearnings run deep. Pay special attention as emotional resentments from the past can surface and block your heightened creative energy. Fight urges to be suspicious, secretive, and moody.
During this time we will see what we don’t want to be. This is where we find our power.

- Divinely inspired creative ideas

- Finding meanings to our relationships and things happening around us
Bottom Line:
You will discover a talent of yours. You will learn something about yourself you didn't know. Keep an open mind. Be practical and put in the effort. This is a time of professional growth. People will come out of nowhere to give you information or to mentor you. You will have flashes of inspiration. The ego will tell you to give up--Don't give up! You can make a way, you just have to be creative with your resources. This is a time to go for it! That idea you been working on, go for it! It will most likely go smoothly.
The Sun trine Saturn supports us in looking at and working towards our long-term goals while remaining well-balanced with the current reality. Our big dream bubbles for the future have a tint of positive pragmatism now, and we are able to figure out the steps needed to head in that direction without feeling overwhelmed.
Sun trine Uranus brings flashes of insight and increased intuition that may lead to revelations. If you feel like trying something outside of your usual routine, follow that impulse!
Saturn trine Uranus indicates that this is a transitional phase in life. It’s an ideal time to make positive changes, and you will likely find that when you go for it, these things run smoothly.
Things to do during this Full Moon in Pisces:
Do some form of volunteering work.
Do some form of daydreaming to manifest the future that you want. Meditation on your dreams of your future and goals.
Connect with water through the beach or swimming.
Be with those that you truly care about.

Partial Solar Eclipse New Supermoon in Leo
***I do not recommend a group ceremony for this moon. This is a very solitary, personal energy. It is just between you and Allah/God/Creator Source. Your observance and worship should be private/insular. I recommend burning bakhoor/oud & doing fajr and dhikr.
If you are not Muslim get up right before sunrise anyway to make your intention and mediate because the moon is coming in at 5:58am (Eastern). Make decisions for yourself, don’t try to involve others
(they will resent you for it).

Colors: Yellow, orange, gold,
Chakra: Solar Plexus,
Oils: ylang ylang, bergamot, frankincense
Crystals: aventurine quartz, sunstone, yellow citrine
Note: D
Foods: Apples, bananas, oranges, limes, lemons, grapefruit, spinach, corn, basil, almond, sesame, coconut, curry, brown rice. Chamomile, rosemary
Energy: (how u want to carry yourself): Leo/Lion, King, Ruler, the Life Giver, Pallas, creative, powerful, helpful, expansive, Queen Amanirenas of Meriotic Kingdom of Kush, Queen Amina of Zaria/Nigeria, Palas, Queen Nzinga, Queen Yaa Asantewa of Ghana, Queen Yennenga of Burkina Faso, Queen Godit of Yodit Ethiopia, Nusayba
There’s a power struggle or crisis and this Queen Warrior energy will give you the wisdom and strength to tactfully make it though.
Question (journal, prayer/dua, mediation): O Allah/Creator Source what is it that you want me to know? What is my path in life? What am I moving towards? What is my life purpose? How can I help others and myself? Write details about the new beginning you are building for yourself.

Its effects can be felt up to 6 months after the actual date of the eclipse. In the Sun-ruled sign of Leo, confidence, creativity, romance and dating, games, sports, recreation (enjoyment) , speculation, hobbies, or children (or your inner child) are a strong focus. This eclipse might challenge these matters and present opportunities for new beginnings in these areas of life.
Bottom Line:
|
With this eclipse, we might experience a strong urge to act on impulse. However, it will be important to avoid jumping to conclusions and asserting ourselves without considering others’ feelings and reactions. There is a big difference between asserting ourselves from a place of healthy confidence and asserting ourselves brashly and blindly, designed to give us a false sense of confidence or bravery. We should also watch for cockiness and excessive pride interfering with our progress now. Taking the high road is absolutely critical for success now. Especially because Mercury (communication) is in retrograde.
Right now, most of the planets in our skies are retrograde. This is the way in which the universe (Allah, Creator Source) is signaling you to slow down your action and take your foot off the gas for just a moment.
You see, even the planets know the importance of taking a break, and what they are showing you is how important it is to coast on the momentum of what you have already worked to build in order to move into perfect alignment with your highest and greatest good. This is an “active rest period” in which the planets allow you to catch your breath as they collect gifts and resources to give to you once they go direct again! Mercury, Saturn, Neptune, Pluto, Mars, Uranus and Chiron will all be retrograde (closer to Earth than usual and appearing backwards) which will encourage introspection. The more we do this the more we will use these personal insights to create big steps forward in our outer life when they go direct. It’s interesting to note the only planets NOT retrograde this new moon will be Venus and Jupiter assisting us to move forwards through loving choices to expand our world. |
YOD ALERT!
We have a YOD also known as a ‘finger of God’ pointing to this eclipse. Considered a powerful mystic force that acts as a compass to point us in the direction of our highest destiny, it reveals all that’s hidden into the light often with a sense of intense urgency on the understanding that this is the Carpe Diem window to seize the moment. This is a powerful window of awakening, spiritual transformation & growth.
So What is a YOD?
This phenomenon occurs when two planets are sextile (60° aspect) to each other, and both are then quincunx (150° aspect) to a third. In this instance we have Pluto & Neptune pointing to this new moon and sun in Leo. This is kind of like focusing all their joint power on this astrological event!
Pluto highlights abuses of power and all that’s been hidden so it can be transformed and Neptune asks us to stop fantasizing and live our spiritual ethos. Pointing at Leo we may find false kings / queens are dethroned and true leaders elevated by having the courage to bear their soul. A YOD connects us to Allah/Creator Source…indicating this is a herald of the return of the archetype of the sacred king.
The Leo moon assists:

Lunar Eclipse Aquarius
July 27, 2018
Tone: A, Hum
Foods: Fasting, pomegranate, cucumber, lime, mugwort
Number for Aquarius: 8
Mercury Retrograde: Rest & Retreat
Colors/Candles: Purple, Gold, White
Flowers: orchids, any purple/blue flowers
Oils: Lavender, Frankincense, rosewood, lotus
Crystals: amethyst, clear quartz, diamond, topaz, sapphire
Energy: stern teacher, discipline, hard work, humanitarian, pioneer, inventive, reformer, intellectual, visionary, Malik el Shabazz, Harriet Tubman, Fatimah...
Focus: Self-esteem
The Aquarius Blood Moon eclipse will be the longest eclipse of the 21st century. The eclipse will be 1:20PM PST and 4:20PM EST. You will not be able to see it if you are in North America. It is a good time to do breath work and writing intentions. The effects of a Lunar eclipse last approximately six months.
This is a rebellious impulsive moon that has us demand our independence of our own rights. It empowers us to make sudden changes, alliances beyond the social, race and dogmatic stereotypes. It gives us our visionary ideas, which will lead to some unexpected breakthroughs of how we fit in things as a whole. The Aquarius moon will also bring to light our kindred spirits, innovative uses of technology and society and our relationships with friends. Huge shifts in our spiritual growth that can even have us have unexpected events or realizations that can alter your life course.
When the moon is full in this sign, we find the sun in Leo, the opposite sign of Aquarius. Aquarius is a fixed and air sign. Fixed sign makes it stabilizing and filling out the depths of our own full potential. As an air sign, it deals with shared visions, humanitarianism, utopian ideals, shattering the status quo and rebellion and reform. It also is a very emotionally independent sign. Aquarius shatters the glass ceiling of ideas, so that innovations are in reach.
How best to use this time:
Use this time to go to alternative therapies. This can include; energy healing, Reiki, acupuncture, homeopathy therapy and group gatherings and ceremonies. Being with others of like mind in the spiritual/new age sense or even kindred spirits. Being true to your own self.
Lunar eclipses are relationship-oriented. The “crisis” that these eclipses tend to elicit is a crisis of lack–a time when we suddenly realize a great need or want. The impact of the crisis can act to sever a relationship–it’s possible. But it can also bring two people together with a sudden awareness of a great need for each other. Although Lunar eclipses are more relationship-oriented than Solar eclipses, they are not always about relationships between two people. They can trigger awareness of need in other areas of our lives, such as our relationship to work, to our health and bodies, and so forth. This is a time when matters come to light–things that have been brewing under the surface.
Lunar Eclipses are about relationships and polarities. With the Leo-Aquarius axis involved, this Lunar Eclipse presses us to look more closely at our needs, lacks, and wants in our lives. With the Leo-Aquarius axis involved, this Lunar Eclipse presses us to look more closely at our needs, lacks, and wants in our lives. The Leo-Aquarius polarity deals with the balance between all that is personal (Leo) and all that is impersonal (Aquarius). The energy of Leo is creative self-expression and the boost to the individual ego that we receive through pleasure and romance, while Aquarius rules the group, more impersonal friendships, and objectivity. This Full Moon urges us to strike a balance between romance and friendship, and between expressing ourselves in personal and impersonal ways. The Leo Sun is proud and intensely individual—not content with simply being just one of the team. The Aquarius Moon, while individualistic as well, values the team. The Full Moon illuminates this conflict.
Some sort of crisis (which can be a crisis of consciousness) or sudden awareness of a lack in our lives provides us with a golden opportunity to explore our emotional needs within the context of the house polarity where the eclipse occurs in our natal charts. Relationships may be challenged, broken, or strengthened dramatically at this time. Epiphanies are likely at this time as we become acutely aware of our lack. This understanding can propel us into affirmative action.

Partial Solar Eclipse & New Moon in Cancer
July 12-13
It's Cancer Season!! My birthday is coming up!! Whoot Whooot! Okay, now that I got that off my chest. Here's a quick rundown of what's going on with the New Moon energy. This new moon partial solar eclipse is all about family, nurturing, self-love, & the divine feminine. What does that mean for you? You are probably feeling self-protective and insular (introverted). That's your instinct tuning into the energy and if you are not feeling it, then slow down and pamper yourself. Take a breather!! Be Still!
Get your white/blue candle(s) out and dress them with jasmine oil, eucalyptus oil, gardenia oil or just put it on yourself. Sage and rose water are good too. Get out your crystals, especially your Rainbow Moonstone, labradorite, Pearl, clear quartz, rose quartz. And pull in. You may just want to be alone or only meet with close friends.
This is a time to clear away fatigue and bring clarity of mind. What old habits ideas do you need to shed to open yourself for the new ways. How do you want to change your life? Write it down. Write down what you want to shed too. Clear out anything not serving you/your goals. Focus on being yin/receptive/surrender, but also being impeccable with your thoughts.
This is great time to come to bellydance class (which is every Thursday at 6:30pm) and be introspective, really flow with the music and feel how every movement benefits your body. This is good time to focus on delta and taxem movements. Feel the self love (body positive) and connect with our sistertribe. While having tea, I have a game we can play that will reinforce the innerwork. See you soon!
If you want to and happen to have it, Bring (or if you are going it solo, indulge in):
Note: G: Immunity, stress, skin, knees, teeth, bones
Foods: watermelon, cantaloupe, coconut, salad, okra, squash, bean sprouts, alfalfa sprouts, Cashew, peas, hummus, chamomile, mint

The leaves on the trees have returned, making the world a lush green. The frantic spring energy has been replaced by a lazy summer breeze. The animals go about raising their young as food becomes plentiful.
The June full moon is about our dreams and inner visions. The summer energy calls us to explore, to visit the deep parts of the forest, to listen to and connect with our inner voice. It’s a good time to start a dream journal or create art.
The Blue Moon is a powerful time for setting long-term goals, acknowledgement of your accomplishments, divination, and past life-regression. The Capricorn moon says it's time to start taking care of business. Taking the time to pay special attention to our needs for security, our duties and obligations, drives, and ambitions. "Going for it" materially, as now is the time for ambitiousness and persistence. This is a bad time to ask or obtain anything from established authorities (patriarchal systems), you do those in Leo moons, as this is the time where traditional modes prevail. Capricorn brings a desire to create environments and energy is usually slowed down, so be careful to avoid insensitivity to others, and stay out of negative and pessimistic mind sets that are only going to drag you down. Take this moon's energy to deal with your material plane, especially if you've neglected it for too long.

The Blue Moon is a powerful time for setting long-term goals, acknowledgement of your accomplishments, divination, and past life-regression. The Capricorn moon says it's time to start taking care of business. Taking the time to pay special attention to our needs for security, our duties and obligations, drives, and ambitions. "Going for it" materially, as now is the time for ambitiousness and persistence. This is a bad time to ask or obtain anything from established authorities (patriarchal systems), you do those in Leo moons, as this is the time where traditional modes prevail. Capricorn brings a desire to create environments and energy is usually slowed down, so be careful to avoid insensitivity to others, and stay out of negative and pessimistic mind sets that are only going to drag you down. Take this moon's energy to deal with your material plane, especially if you've neglected it for too long.
Capricorn moon rituals tend to be a bit harder to get initiated because of the amount of grounded Earth energy, but once they do they will be a lot of fun, so enjoy the energy of this thunder moon by utilizing an affirmation in your full moon meditation.
Very early Thursday, a Full Moon occurs when the Cancer Sun opposes the Moon in Capricorn. The Full Moon is a time of culmination and the promise of fulfillment of that which was started at the New Moon. It is an emotional time–a time of romance, fertilization, and relationships. The Cancer-Capricorn polarity concerns the balance between the private life, domesticity, the need for a home base, and nurturance (represented by Cancer) versus the public life, career, reputation, and accountability (represented by Capricorn). |
Attachments and love are ruled by Cancer, while achievements and rewards/punishments are ruled by Capricorn. In some ways, this polarity deals with the balance between unconditional love and conditional love. Cancer encourages us to value our home base and our roots, while Capricorn persuades us to consider our sense of duty and responsibility along public or professional lines. While Cancer may be content to be dependent, Capricorn urges us to be grown-up and responsible. Cancer represents the origin, and Capricorn represents the goal.
Neglecting either end of the axis will surely backfire on us. Ideally, a balance should be found between the two energies, and this is what the Full Moon invites us to do. This Full Moon is about balancing our commitment to our career and families. Something has been building inside of us, and now is the time when the energy of the cosmos fairly demands that we let it out. Over the next two weeks, we will discover what this means for us. For now, we can’t sit on our feelings. We need to express them.
The Full Moon illuminates this conflict between roots and direction. With the Moon full and bright in the sky, symbolic “illumination” occurs in our own lives. However, these new feelings and revelations are emotional ones, as there is a sense of emotions bursting forth into our consciousness. It’s time to express ourselves and to let things out of our systems. Of course, we might want to exercise some care while doing so, knowing that what is coming out of us is fresh, unrefined, and not particularly rational as yet. This Full Moon aligns with Saturn and trines Uranus, suggesting somewhat sober realizations that we can nevertheless make work for us. There may be a tough decision or choice, reality check, or we may feel some pressure to make changes.
