Dear Friends,
I'm obsessed with Lunar Gestation Cycles and think you should be too because they are so revealing.This is the theory that every 9 months the New Moon cycle of manifestation develops. 🌕So, say we have a New Moon. 9 months later there will be a First Quarter Moon AT THE SAME PLACE IN THE SKY. Another 9 months and there it is again, this time, A FULL MOON... AT THE SAME PLACE IN THE SKY!
* New Moon at 0Âş Aquarius on the 21st of January.
NINE MONTHS LATER >>>
* First Quarter Moon at 28Âş of Capricorn on the 22nd of October.
NINE MONTHS LATER >>>
* Full Moon at 29Âş of Capricorn on the 21st of July.
Each of these lunations is a punctuation point in a story and this astrological technique of looking at THE SAME POINT IN THE SKY every nine months is powerful because what's happening NOW is a manifestation of what began 18 months ago. 🌋The threads are undeniable!
So what was happening 18 months ago, January 2023 when the New Moon conjunct Pluto invited HUGE paradigm shifts?
I’ve noticed that the themes of the New Moon “come to light” and are illuminated by la lune when the Full Moon blooms. 🌕
This week’s Oddcast explores:
* The weekly astrology
* The Full Moon in Capricorn
* Mars’ ingress into Gemini
* Mercury entering shadow
* Impending power struggles to dodge
* The Sun entering Leo ono the 22nd
In this conversation, I discuss various astrological aspects and their implications for the week. I talk about the Venus-Varuna conjunction, the Mars-Uranus aspect, and the upcoming Full Moon in Capricorn. I also explore the themes of breakthroughs, rewriting karma, and the importance of self-expression.
I provide horoscope readings for each zodiac sign and emphasise the need for self-reflection and re-evaluating relationships for the signs of Cancer and Scorpio.
Let’s look at what I’d written in CYCLES 2023 about this Lunar Gestation phase…

New Moon in Aquarius 1º 32’
21st January 2023 20:53 GMT
Tarot: 8 of Cups
An intense and slightly cut-throat New Moon in Aquarius square to the Nodes calls for us to release old Karma and boldly step into the future with a vision of hope.
There is no place for spiritual bypassing and pretending everything is OK. Today is the day to look headlong into your heart and understand what needs to be addressed and released. A purging of old ideals with a view to a turbo charged future.
“I want to easily and happily release all outdated visions of the future and create space for... ”
With Pluto tightly conjunct the New Moon, albeit in an out of sign conjunction, we are looking at addressing the changes that we cannot avoid any longer. It is not necessarily comfortable, but wishing with the New Moon is an invitation for divine guidance to give us the wisdom in the most aligned way for us to process everything that is happening.
It requires a certain level of stoicism and inner strength, there’s a “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” to what’s being experienced right now. Drink in the realness and put your best foot forward.
What is it that you’ve been avoiding? Or how have you been resisting change?
* Tell us, how did you get on with the Mars Uranus conjunction? I’d love to see some conversation in the comments below! 👇
* Do you remember what was going on back in January 2023? Any patterns?

Turbulence continues this eclipse season as the First Quarter Moon aligns with Pluto and squares the Sun and Mercury, who is at the final degree of Libra! This is a continuation of the New Moon from the 21st of January and also has the “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” emblem!
