Whatever Jupiter touches (in
this case, the Moon, our emotional temperature!), it makes it bigger than it
usually is.
The moon is full in the sign of Leo on Tuesday, February
3. Jupiter sits close by the moon,
our emotional temperament. The duo
of Moon and Jupiter is emotionally happy and expansive. Jupiter touches our creative expression and we feel excited
and elated. However, whatever
Jupiter touches, it makes it bigger. Jupiter touches our full moon emotional
state and we will feel it strongly. If are in a good, expansive mood, Jupiter
will help that expansion. If we feel down and out, Jupiter will amplify that
mood. Jupiter brings opportunity and optimism today. Jupiter can also bring a tendency to over-reach. Jupiter can take us out of
bounds.
The Moon/Jupiter connection is in a YOD formation with
planets Mars and Pluto. A YOD means finger of God. The deities
are pointing their fingers at us and saying, go be BIG.
You can have fun, and be creative, optimistic and happy. However, we must pay
attention to the potential of overdoing the fun, OR overdoing our expectations
of life, OR over-promising what we can deliver to people or projects. It is important to take a moment and
reflect on what is reasonable and practical before putting a down payment on a
$10,000 cruise! Jupiter is
connected with our prosperity. Take care not to over spend or to spend the
money before it is in your bank account!
Same with our energy! Take
care not to promise more of our energy than we can give.
At the Full Moon Women’s Gathering, held yesterday at Dallas
Yoga Center, we got a jump-start on this full moon happiness. The energy of the gathering was light
and joyful. We tried a little belly dancing along with a devotional meditation
on Goddess, Isis. I suggest dancing
and any other form of movement that makes you feel good. The living room of
your own home can become your dance floor. Anywhere you are can be a creative,
fun place during this full moon.
Of course there are always
aggravations. Mercury
is retrograde and that brings confused communications. The combination of
Mercury retrograde and Jupiter sitting with a full moon might suggest that we
hold off taking action on any ideas that pop into our heads today. Things that
are already in motion are different. But if someone calls you today and asks
for a loan, think about it for a few days. Go into discernment mode before taking action. Also Venus is making an unhappy
connection with Saturn. Some people will feel too stressed, overworked, sad or
inhibited to jump on the joy wagon.
Venus is also sitting close to planet Neptune. This arrangement can lead
to beautiful music or loving compassion. However, its connection with Saturn
can mean that this week brings some disappointment for some people. Even if life
is not exactly what you want it to be, or if you feel disillusioned in some
way, try to appreciate the emotional enthusiasm and optimism of the Full Moon
and Jupiter in fire sign Leo. Leo is full of heart and willingness to extend love and good will to all.
Of course, the Sun in Aquarius opposes the full moon. Aquarius Sun connects us with
community. Aquarius encourages us to think about how to share our gifts with
society. These days around the
full moon are great for networking and seeking out kindred spirits. The combination of Aquarius Sun and
Full Moon with Jupiter in Leo will help some people expand in their careers. Another word for Jupiter is generosity. Be generous in spirit with
those you love and respect and good things will be catalyzed for the good of
all.
