Full Moon Astro-Tarot Forecast - June 12, 2014

EXPANSION OF CONSCIOUSNESS
Full Moon in Sagittarius
June 12, 2014

 
 
This week, peaking Thursday June 12, we are feeling the expansive growth tugs caused by the pulsing Full Moon in the fiery, inspirational, seeking sign of Sagittarius, the Archer. The key phrase I’ve chosen for this Full Moon is EXPANSION OF CONSCIOUSNESS. Wherever the Moon falls in your chart (email me for a special-priced astrological mini-reading if you like) is where you are meant to GROW BIGGER IN YOUR LIFE.

Is this expansion always yummy, juicy, comfy or joyful? No, of course not. If you imagine a tree sloughing off old bark as it grows bigger, or roots ripping through new ground in the earth, you can imagine that sometimes it hurts a bit before it bears fruit. Firing up new brain waves, like those roots finding new pathways to expand your consciousness, may not always be the most comfortable of illuminations. Real wisdom is hard earned.
But that’s what the Universe is calling forth now.

We are still feeling the effects of April/May’s grand cardinal cross of evolution wherein it’s become clear that NO ONE is immune to far-reaching life ch-ch-ch-changes. June’s Full Moon asks us to become visionaries once again to welcome what is urging you to grow on a deep soul level. If it's painful, try to be optimistic if possible. One spiritual adage says, “It’s best not to think [believe your thoughts]. But if you must think, think positive.” Realize that Life does have your best interests at heart, even if something feels really FOREIGN (another Sagittarius trait), and therefore uncomfortable at first. Odd and strange can be experienced as exciting with a tiny shift in perspective.

Perhaps your relationship contracts need updating in order to allow a bigger definition of what you and your partner are attempting to build together (Full Moon in Sagittarius in the Seventh House). If the Full Moon is lighting up your Tenth House of career, maybe you’re meant to start educating your ‘public’ more – teach the wisdom you have embodied – and in so doing, you’ll grow that area of your life. No matter what, Sag does not want things to get boring or stagnant.

The very lifeblood of Sagittarius, the Archer, is nourished by ADVENTURE and EXPLORATION OF NEW TERRITORY. This doesn’t mean it has to be literal territory (though long-distance travel and long journeys are part of the Archer’s repertoire). You could be learning through intense study of a new protocol to help you grow your business, or researching alternative ways of parenting or pregnancy. The trick is, whatever area of life the Full Moon is shining upon for you, it should be ultimately leading to more FREEDOM in that area. Does that mean we bolt and run from our responsibilities? Not usually. Sagittarius is big-picture viewing and carries the wisdom to know the difference.

If we have to commit to more structure or accountability in the short-term (few weeks or even a few years) to ensure greater freedom on the long term, Sag visioning can help us see that and inspire us to work toward that vision. A perfect example of this is a 55-year old who has been working at their stable government job for twenty years and is offered a chance to take early retirement. They are super tired of their role and are chomping at the bit to start a new leaf, travel around the world, etc. However, if they stay for just five more years, they’ll get a full pension for the rest of their life. What choice do you think they will make?

Another example is hanging in there with an alternative living situation for a year or two in order to save for a dream house. Maybe we live with a parent for a short time, or with housemates; it’s a bit odd to us – foreign to our consciousness up to this point – but a DEEPER KNOWING aka WISDOM nudges us to do it, for the longer-term freedom we are shooting for.

Sagittarius can give us INSPIRATION to cross that finish line for A BIGGER DEAL, just a little bit later. Think big, think long-term, and have the guts to fire your arrow far and wide!

Erin Reese’s channeled Astro-Tarot messages

Full Moon in Sagittarius
June 12, 2014

After purifying my trusty Universal Waite Tarot deck and calling upon my guides, here are my channeled messages for the Full Moon in Sagittarius!

UNIVERSAL CARD (for everyone):

KING OF WANDS
Wands represent the element of fire, and fire is the element of the Sagittarius Centaur-Archer. We need the flames of inspiration, courage, gusto to move us into the next chapter of our lives. We know we are being asked to evolve, to change and grow now. Remember the helpful Serenity Prayer at this time: “God(dess), grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the COURAGE to CHANGE the things I can, and the WISDOM to know the difference.” We can practice good leadership and self-hood when we stand tall in our own trustworthy authority like a benevolent monarch and make far-reaching, inspired decisions and stand by them. Others will feel our warmth and sincerity and support us in our endeavors, backed by the maturity of big-picture, visionary thinking. Lead with your long-term view!

ARIES:
SIX OF PENTACLES
It’s time for you to give back to your friends, family and community. We need your passion and drive, Aries. We need you to share with us the hard-earned wisdom you’ve gained by committing fearlessly to your personal truth. Have you forgotten that others may not have such abundance of power or might? You have enough to spare. Spread it around, lest it burn you up or make you hot-headed – sure signs you’re holding back unnecessarily. Give it away!

TAURUS:
VII – THE CHARIOT
Some people think Taurus moves slow in life, plodding along like a milking cow with all the time in the world at her disposal to graze in the meadow. What folks may not see is that she has a plan and it takes a long time. This has a special application for the Bull now with regard to long-term investments of money, property and shared resources. You may have a download in your head right now about how to make it all come together over the next three, five, ten and twenty years. Trust it. You’re on the right track and this IS your destined calling.

GEMINI:
FIVE OF WANDS
A Gemini without a clear, inspired vision is sometimes known as a scatterbrain! Is this how you’re feeling right now? No one can blame the Twins for feeling cluttered in the mind – what with all the technology and information overload and busy-ness in our world these days, it’s a wonder you’re grounded at all. Your ruling planet, Mercury, is retrograde all of June, so take particular care to back up your data and keep your files and belongings in order. The key for you is to NOT MULTITASK. I know, saying that to a Gemini is like telling ice not to melt in hell. But we can always strive for focus for just a few more minutes at a time. It will help!

CANCER:
SIX OF SWORDS
Are you feeling run down, Crabbikins? I’m sorry. I know that this early summer hustle is quite a lot to contend with. If you’re like most Crabs, you’ve got a lot of family obligations – Father’s Day, barbecues, graduations, street fairs, and – don’t forget! – your own birthday coming up! It may be feeling like too much and this could drain your health quickly if you’re not careful. Luckily, you’ve got a lot of support to take it one tiny minute at a time. Eat your veggies and tune up your Vita-Mix and you’ll be just fine. You may be tired, but you’ll make it through June!

LEO:
KNIGHT OF WANDS
GOOD NEWS for the king/queen of the jungle! You’re about to take a trip this summer, and this Full Moon in Sagittarius is helping you put the finer details on your journey. Let it inspire you! You need to go somewhere exotic, even if that’s a new part of the state. Ideally you’ll cross water or deserts or continents if you can. Otherwise, be sure to sign up for some summer school seminars that will keep you engaged and learning. Travel is on the horizon and you are going to have a great time. Let it be all about YOU.

VIRGO:
TEN OF CUPS
Virgo, you feel good and happy and invigorated at all the abundance that Life is giving you. If you don’t yet – try making a Gratitude List of at least 10 things that you are grateful for. You’ll see that even if your life is not perfect right now, if you really look at your state of being, it’s pretty darn good, isn’t it? Let the joy of clean air and water, fresh food, nature, laughter of children, and blue skies fill your heart. All it takes is a tiny adjustment in perspective to see that you are living a miracle of love.

LIBRA:
EIGHT OF CUPS
It is very important for you, the Sign of the Scales, to keep a balanced mind. The word for this is equanimity. If you indulge in negative thinking or harsh self-talk, Libra, the whole lot of your life falls into a depressed heap as the scales tip away from your favor. If you need to walk away from old concepts or belief systems in order to get back into a healthy relationship with yourself, do it. It’s time to move on. Be especially vigilant when examining words you use to communicate with your self or others. Align yourself with positive people and higher vibration environments. That will help a lot!

SCORPIO:
TEN OF PENTACLES
Your biggest source of spiritual wealth these days, Scorpio, is your COMMUNITY. That means your chosen family, and that may or may not be comprised of your family of origin. You have so many riches in your neighborhood as well as your virtual network. This can all be cultivated now into a long-term vision that will bear financial fruits. Stability is the name of the game for you. What material things do you need to manifest over the next 2 to 3 years in order to feel completely and utterly supported? Implement now. Be sure to include meditation groups or yoga community or other gatherings of soulful people into your world.

SAGITTARIUS:
THREE OF SWORDS
Are you feeling exposed this week, dear Archer? You are so courageous and unafraid to speak and live your truth. Sometimes, this brings painful revelations about yourself, your Life, another person or the world. This is a gift that you carry: you are, more than other signs, able to live with the heart of a peaceful warrior. You can always keep the highest truth of compassion, love, and real wisdom in the foremost of your powerful mind. This keeps you open to receive, and to express yourself fully. I am sorry that sometimes brings a bit of pain, like a pinprick to the heart. Let these honest discoveries pierce you through and through to deepen your connection to Spirit and Soul.

CAPRICORN:
THREE OF CUPS
Don’t forget the power of amazing friends in your life. You need to kick up your heels with your buddies, and soon. Try to make time over the next couple of weeks to get together with souls who uplift your heart. It doesn’t matter what you do: go dancing, listen to music, walk in a garden, laugh over tea – simply set up a play date. You can get so busy with responsibilities and doing the right thing in your life that you forget a huge source of wealth and riches: those you love outside of your family. Spread the joy around!

AQUARIUS:
XVII - THE STAR
The Star is YOUR card, Aquarius! It represents you, the Water Bear, pouring buckets of innovative consciousness all over humanity. That is your job, and your birthright. You would not be happy sitting idly and watching the life go on as it ever way, same-same. No, you’re here to transform your generation. Speak up and speak out when you see something that is outdated and no longer working. A lesser known fact of Aquarius’ nature is that you are really turned on by making the world more efficient. When you see a piece of your community that is clearly old-hat, you lose energy and vitality UNLESS you step in and help to initiate change. That is where you shine!
 
PISCES:
VIII - STRENGTH
You are far more powerful than many people give you credit for. That is because you don’t flaunt your courage, strength, and guts. You live through soft strength. If others misinterpret your sensitivity as weakness, they are in for a surprise when you show up with all of your might like a Mama Bear protecting her real or Inner Child. Pisces, you are so on the right track of self-care and nurturing the most important parts of you: your heart and soul, mind and body. Keep practicing radical acts of self-nurturing. Others in your life will benefit, too.
