Gibbous and Full Moon

Monday August 24 With this Sagittarius Moon some concealed personal condition needs to be revealed. There’s resistance to exposing any rough edges or hints of being less than perfect. Intuition suggests pointing out what a close companion might benefit from. This can melt away barriers to empathetically sharing shortcomings and provide for accepting a give and take full of advice. At 4:04 pm, MT, the Moon goes void of course for over six hours of stomping out the inspirations of Sagittarius. Mutually sharing what one really thinks may become easier, as boundaries become non-existent. At 10:22 pm, the Moon moves into constructive Capricorn. Tuesday August 25 High-minded Capricorn lets us know that normal views of things are no replacement for spiritual ones which can offer ways of surpassing past abilities. Such a perspective helps one be open to new experiences. Enduring practices and customs can be tweaked. They don’t need to last forever although Capricorn can have old-fashioned ideas and tastes. From time to time, however, the Capricorn in us can break away from customs and resort to unusual behavior. When there’s clarity about what works in specific contexts along with the realization of one’s ability to start over, Capricorn will take a chance to materialize more of what is capable. Wednesday August 26 At 5:42 pm, MT, the Capricorn Moon entered her gibbous phase when we need to draw upon resources available to shed as much light as possible on how we rely on relationships for personal self-realization. We may spar with close connections in exchanges which could reveal something personally special. Many details are systematically uncovered today, leading to reinterpretations. The Sun and Jupiter begin a new yearly cycle today about working out differences in pursuit of integrity. We can be fastidious and cautious in how we choose to express our views today. Certain alliances help maintain focus. Thursday August 27 The Moon moved into the “out of the blue” experiences of Aquarius early this morning. Throughout the day the attention to priorities required of the gibbous Moon phase may be interrupted repeatedly by unexpected events. It may help to anticipate shifts and twists today. Networking relationships can reaffirm how much we influence and move people. Aquarius can systematically upset the order of things, or the proverbially apple carts, in order to adjust the interactions with things and people to a higher order. The Aquarius in us wishes to connect with the best people possible to get the insight desired. Friday August 28 The Aquarius Moon is adept at caring for needs not met by external circumstances. This sign can take things head on with detached criticism. There’s a compulsion to peel away old ways of noticing one’s reality to allow some fuller picture of it to come into view. Interconnections become important. As hopeful as Aquarius can be for future success, it won’t come without some assertion for what is wanted. For the Aquarius part of us, that means plumbing the inner depths of the psyche for where to apply force. Listen to MoonWise tomorrow on the worldwide web at ksfr.org from 2:00 to 2:30 pm, MT, for the weekend Moon Minute. Weekend August 29 and 30 The Moon moved into all accommodating Pisces early this morning and at 12:35 pm, MT, entered her full phase. Veils begin to lift that were covering some previously hidden aspects of one’s essential self. Pisces can be a gateway to the spirit world where greater understanding of self becomes possible. It’s also the realm which includes all sorts of interactions, providing us with opportunities for greater self realization gleaned from others, which can inspire us to surpass previous behavior. On Sunday the structure of our personal reality becomes clearer. Many aspects of self come together, infusing us with purposeful energy.
