Gibbous and Full Moon

October 22 Monday
With this Pisces Moon we can feel the changes that are developing, even if they are only the way we have been viewing our behavior. All it takes is desire and intent to create some action that flows into what we feel we can become. And today a liberating energy can magically show up. With it we can cut through whatever is holding us back. At 6:15 pm, MDT, the Moon enters her Gibbous phase, a time when inner and outer resources come together to help us refine or at least improve upon what we have developed to date. Pisces and Libra where the Moon and the Sun are now are sensitive to collaborative processes.

October 23 Tuesday
Tuesday’s Pisces Moon comes with feelings that demonstrate a state of denial about the shape and circumstances of what has transpired since the new Moon almost 2 weeks ago. The Sun’s movement into Scorpio today also supports the blocking of emotions. Yet powerfully useful information is available if we choose to plunge in and analyze the psychological tensions being experienced. At 2:17 pm, MDT, the Moon goes void of course for five hours of draining out any unrealistic expectations of Pisces. At 7:24 pm, the Moon moves into the arousing courage of Aries!

October 24 Wednesday
With Wednesday’s Aries Moon, we may feel a bit feisty in asserting our personal needs. The orientation of the day is to lead with actions. Be careful about thoughtless, tactless moves. Try expressing any restless energy to improve things on your own, solo. Give yourself permission to leave any problem area. There can be a variety of solutions or approaches that can promise the desired results. Distance yourself from the troublesome ones and the unethical. Aries likes to keep things simple and straightforward. But don’t expect to finish up much today.

October 25 Thursday
The Aries Moon brings a youthful attitude to seeing the present conditions of one’s life, aware of the effects of both good and bad actions, able to turn things around and begin anew. At 3:46 pm, MDT, the Moon begins to void the direct and immediate energy of Aries for over three exhausting hours. At 7:07 pm, the Moon, rising in the east, moves into Taurus and enters her full phase at 10:51 pm. This begins a period of revelations about how we are able to co-exist on many levels, sharing commonalities and honoring the rights of everyone and everything that inhabits this planet.

October 26 Friday
The Taurus Moon brings values to the forefront, the ordinary ones and the eccentric ones. We may feel conflicted between security and freedom needs. What’s important is to not get stuck and to overcome personal obstacles. Adhering to the truth in any sort of struggle, helps to accept disturbing tensions and to let them pour out instead of allowing them to crystallize within. Accept the challenge to sweep away irresponsible patterns revealed at this time. Listen to MoonWise tomorrow on the worldwide web at ksfr.org from 1:00 to 1:30 pm, MDT, for the weekend Moon Minute.

October 27 Saturday
The Taurus Moon has been void of course since very early this morning. She is releasing the justifications of Taurus along with its tendencies to wallow in indulgences. At 6:11 pm, MDT, she moves into the light-hearted sign of Gemini, yet there may be a serious tone to the evening. Sunday’s mood is more excitable. We may feel wired to verbalize what is sensed deep within our core. The creative inner muse may be pointing out a variety of ideas that can mentally transport us into ways of getting the unwanted kinks out of our vision of how we want our lives to be.
