Full Moon Astro-Tarot Forecast: September 19, 2013

Dear friends:

Once again, I’ve been guided to present a Full Moon Astro-Tarot forecast for all 12 signs! Thursday morning, September 19, at 4:13 a.m. Pacific, we have a Full Moon in the mutable water sign of Pisces.

Come a little bit closer
Hear what I have to say
Just like children sleepin'
We could dream this night away.

~ "Harvest Moon," Neil Young

The harvest moon shining ever-so-bright tonight brings in a romantic sense of fullness. This Moon asks, how can we continue working at the Virgo tasks at hand that we started so diligently this month, while at the same time basking in the glory of what we're creating, and enjoying the fruits of the harvest? We may not be able to rest entirely on our laurels quite yet, but we're certainly making progress - and hopefully having a good time doing it. We can make sure we do step back from all the Virgo busy-ness and 'doings' long enough to enjoy the emotional waves of the Pisces Moon.

Did I say "enjoy the emotional waves"? Yes, I did. The Ocean of Life may be super intense, driving us this-a-way and that-a-way, yet think about it: some people pay good money to ride roller coasters or see adventure movies just to experience those peaks and thrills and ups and downs. That's what Life is all about.

With this Pisces Full Moon, we surrender to the subconscious while simultaneously cultivating Virgo fortitude. That discipline we have to actually roll up our sleeves and face the tasks at hand will carry us through. To me, the real theme of September's Full Moon is "work hard, play hard." Stand tall with your Virgo harvest sickle and also stand tall as the shaft of wheat you are harvesting. You are BOTH the agrarian who cuts away the chaff, and the very grain itself that nourishes your own life and the Greater Good. Allow yourself to do a Pisces swan dive and simultaneously dissolve into both roles - the do-er and the be-er - at the same time.

After purifying the Voyager Tarot deck and calling upon my guides and the Goddess, here are my channeled messages:

Tip: be sure to read for your Moon and Rising Sign, too!

Erin’s Astro-Tarot channeled messages at this Full Moon in Pisces, September 19, 2013:

UNIVERSAL CARD (for everyone):

GUARDIAN - WOMAN OF CRYSTALS

Our individual and collective visions are important. Guard your mind! Don't let anyone tell you that you are wrong for seeing, needing, wanting what you know to be true in your very heart. STAY FOCUSED on the task at hand, for you know it is right for YOU. You are the vessel, God/dess is the Power that drives you. Do whatever you need to do to open the third eye - go for a run or a walk, wear a bindi, anoint your forehead with sacred ash or oil, meditate, clear your chakras, take a bath or shower, scream and yell to open your throat, chant, pray, sleep more.

Right now, you and everyone else needs to focus on a SINGLE-MINDED PRIORITY. This will help you every time you have to make a choice, i.e. do I futz around now on email or the Internet? Or do I go to the gym, or do I get back to work even when I don't feel like it? Another thing: keep quiet more often. You need to direct and focus your mind on the tasks at hand so protect it from dullness, boredom or delusion. Stay focused on those seeds you've planted two weeks ago. You're peaking!

ARIES:

FEAR - 7 OF CUPS

You might be afraid you won't get all that work done that you've set on your own plate. This fear is coming from overwhelm, stemming from your competitiveness with yourself and others. Being a real warrior or warrioress means that you can trust that, when you're in a battle or challenge, you'll instinctively know when to make your moves. Drop your fear of failure and remember that because you are Aries, you are a master of knowing when to strike. If you've still got fear, it's a sign your mind has gone astray so come back to the Universal Card, the Woman of Crystals, to help you discipline your mind. Stay alert and aware and you'll know what to do when you need to. Burn incense or sage to smoke out your fears and properly prepare for 'battle.' Do not forget that part of being a warrior is wise use of adrenaline. Feel the fear and do it anyway. You were born to, Ram, of all people.

TAURUS:

NEGATIVITY - 5 OF CRYSTALS

Your 'stinking thinking' trap could be up, so be sure to see if you're stuck in sheer laziness or unwillingness to adapt or change. Try something different, Taurus. See things in a new way. Your fixedness, dear Earth Bull, is a gift when you've set your heart to something. You can work harder than most - when you want to, that is. You can build pyramids when you're inspired, but if you have a case of the "Don't Wanna's," you can be a real stick in the mud. Are you seeing obstacles every which way you look? Perhaps you are in the way. Try trusting in the flow of existence a wee bit more and let Life have its way. Trust you have the ability to say no when you need to, then you won't have to project Negative Nelly 24/7. Take your yeses and nos from moment to moment, one at a time.

GEMINI:

THE STAR - XVII

Oh, la la! You needed this one: hope, inspiration, compassion and your true heart's desire. Can you FINALLY allow yourself to want what you want, Gemini? Wise wanting is a part of being human. You have those two twins inside your head playing 'good cop, bad cop,' and it can feel like you're split, always facing off with yourself. Somewhere in between the two selves lies the truth, and in there lives in your heart. Your Heart is speaking to you now, whether a whisper or a 2x4 on the head. At this full moon, you can allow the heart to penetrate your mind. You can allow sweet inspiration to move you - that is what will give you the real nourishment you seek. What is it, Gem, that you have ALWAYS wanted and not yet allowed yourself to let in? Trust it. The Universe is nudging you...

CANCER:

ASPIRATION - 4 OF WANDS

You are a cardinal sign and while you're one of the most sensitive signs of the Zodiac, you are also blessed with the super power of initiative, making you one creative powerhouse. At this Full Moon, Crabbikins, you need to go for the gold. Can you hear the Olympics theme song in your background? Queue up the theme from Rocky, "Gonna Fly Now." IT IS YOUR TIME. That goal is within reach, so raise your hand and say YES to the Universe. You are SO on the right track!

LEO:

SEEKER - CHILD OF WANDS

Now is the time for the Lion to get back in touch with the kid inside. Of all signs, boy o boy do you love to play. Get into make-believe and magic and imagination this Full Moon. Follow your nose. Go on a night walk. Try something totally bizarre and different out of sheer curiosity. It doesn't always have to make sense. It's part of the the process of DISCOVERY. Put your explorer's pith helmet on, go outside, and soak up the final rays of Indian summer and some Moon rays while you're at it. Let Nature breathe into your soul and inspire you. You are bringing in new ideas for autumn by trying new things for the heck of it.

VIRGO:

TRUST - 6 OF WANDS

You work so hard to get it right, Virgo, and when is it ever "just right" anyway? Let go of perfectionism, and control. Let go of the idea of 'perfect.' It's OK if another person takes the lead from time to time. They may not do it exactly right, they may not do it the most efficient Virgo way, but you need to let others in. You can learn that it's OK to make mistakes. You're lovable and perfect EXACTLY as you are. How can you know if you're trusting enough? With you, it's whether you are feeling anxious. If your mind is chattering, or you're not sleeping well, your head is pounding and the tapes are rolling in your head and messing with peace of mind, you can see that you need to trust. Everything is gonna be fine and it's perfect exactly as it is. Your skill and discernment are super important to us all, dear Virgo, but learn to see the point of diminishing returns. When you hit the stress point, you know your efficiency obsession has gone too far.

LIBRA:

SYNERGY - 6 OF WORLDS

Grace and harmony are your forte, Libra love. But there's a let-go point for you, too: when it's no longer about 'teamwork,' or "me and you," but rather when your collaboration efforts move into a higher plane and your efforts move to a beyond-the-beyond vibration. At this point, the whole project or relationship flows and works seemingly by itself. You've done your part, Libra, over the past month. Now the wheels are spinning and humming nicely. All the people and elements in the field are purring and it's like a well-oiled machine. Because of your grace and diplomacy, the whole is supporting itself and you can finally relax and enjoy!

SCORPIO:

OPPRESSION - 5 OF WANDS

Move it out, Scorp. You know, that thing that's in your way! That thorn in your side that keeps you bound, held up in knots. We love you dearly for your Phoenix-rising-from-the-ashes capability, rebirthing your self again and again. Now you are in that same place. The light of the Full Moon is shining on you, revealing the blocks in your creativity and self-expression holding you back. Now is the time to 'fess up: what person, institution, belief, or bond is keeping you from soaring? The flip side is, if you are bound and conscious of it, you can use this time to stay super focused, intensely, on the task at hand, for example, like a monk or nun in a meditation cell. Be clear with yourself: is this oppression serving your highest vision now, or not? 

SAGITTARIUS:

ILLUMINATION - ACE OF WANDS

"FINALLY!" you say. "I've hit the point of discovery and truth!" This full Moon is here to give you, Archer, a fresh vision and inspire you forth in the work you've been striving toward. You've been working hard, aiming your arrows at that target. It would be wise now for you to call in some nourishment from the saints, sages, and wisdom traditions of the world. Watch a documentary, see a performance, go to a meditation center. En-lighten your mind because you are letting in fuel for the next phase of your visionary, fab journey. Now is a good time to take a course, workshop, or seminar, or read a new book or sacred text to illuminate that Big Mind of yours.

CAPRICORN:

REGENERATOR - SAGE OF CUPS

O, Practical Cap, "work, work, work" is your life theme. You are always meeting responsibilities and needs of life. You're so wise. And part of that wisdom says, TAKE A BREAK. And since you're such an earthy soul it would be a good idea to get outside to do it. Take a hike, walk on the beach, work in the garden. You may also volunteer at a senior center or spend time with your elderly friends. It will do a-body good now and you'll also feel productive (which you love) at the same time. You need Nature right now to refuel, and especially green prana and water. Spend a spell by a lake, stream or creek. Get your feet wet. Gather end-of-summer flowers. Start selecting materials and ideas for your autumn craft projects such as wreaths or wood shop materials. And, remember to laugh at the folly of life. You have a great sense of humor because it is based in real life - the funniest thing of all.

AQUARIUS:

ACTOR - MAN OF WANDS

We all have a role to play on the planet. What is yours right now, Aquarius? Are you here to literally play on stage? In a family? An entrepreneurial career? It's "high play" time right now for you, with the Full Moon beaming down like a spotlight. You need to be seen (scene) in some way, so don't even think about hiding your light under a bushel. Figure out the costumery for the next Act. What stage lighting, what supporting actors and accoutrements do you need for the role at hand? "All the world's a stage and we are merely players," wrote the Bard. You're not pretending, Water Bearer; you're EMBODYING. And you're so good at your role in life because you're not attached to any one identity. Enjoy the script Life has handed to you, whether that be Drama Queen, Scientist, Teacher, Parent, Recluse, Hippie, Artist, Lover - and relax within your role. Notice how master thespians that are relaxed into their role are the ones who get the Oscar.

PISCES:

KNOWER - SAGE OF CRYSTALS

"The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination," said your genius Fish counterpart, Albert Einstein. To which your heart replies, "YES! That's right!" You simply know the way things go in Life, Pisces, because you have an innate intelligence that stretches far beyond the limits of intellect. You're our role model for direct knowing. You can be the great sage for us at this Full Moon. All that wisdom you've collected over lifetimes (you are a super old soul!) is at your disposal now. Be a source of truth and wisdom for the rest of the world. Be the go-to person. People cry on their shoulder because you know the truth - that LOVE is truly all there is. The rest of it? Leave it to them, you say. Your path right now (and always) is to take the huge wisdom vision revealed to you at this Full Moon and see the future. Now you can act on it, wholeheartedly. Enjoy your special dreamy Moonbeams!
