Bold ~ 25 July 2014

In but hours the Moon will enter Leo. As it does, it will soon after align with the Sun... and Jupiter both in Leo. This is an unusually potent New Moon. While it is true that the Moon is at apogee (most-distant point in its orbit from Earth) on the 28th, the connection of both the lights (Sun and Moon) with the grand one, Jupiter, in the magnanimous sign of Leo, remains a big deal.


Think about it. The Sun is the conscious mind. It computes, rationalizes and comes up with “well, if not now, when?” Sounds good. Go for it.


As one feels the way through the boldness portal, the Moon in Leo kicks in. This is the time when any insecurities need to immediately flip into affirmations. Any doubts must be turned over into talent-rich certainties. Any psychic cracks need to be super glued and the soul needs to be fully radiating from within through every cell in the body and out into the aura... and please note, the aura extends as far as one dare emanate.

 

And there’s Jupiter, already in Leo urging the Sun deeper into Leo as he waves enthusiastically and in a most supportive manner to the Moon, still working her way to the conjunction with Jupiter, hours before the new moon. Says Jupiter, “These are opportunities I have here for you. Why do you treat me as if I bear Internet spoofs and scams? Feel it. If you can feel it in those bones of yours - weary or otherwise - the marrow can magnetize the good and the grand."


With the new moon, “I feel I can,” merges with “Do it now,” both likely to be well rewarded by Jupiter.


It should also be noted that recently the Sun squared Mars while in Cancer, and now it’s the Moon’s turn to do the same, but only from Leo to Mars fresh in Scorpio. The last gulp of anticipation, the final flutter of stomach butterflies and the obligatory deep breath before one steps off the high dive of life. In a week, Mars in Scorpio squares Jupiter in Leo. When on the precipice, no turning back is allowed... so says Scorpio, and Jupiter chimes in something about no matter how large the chasm below.


According to the planetary protocol in place, the concept went through its fact check and resource management assessment (Jupiter square Mars), the ego wrapped around the concept and confidence factors were given a temporary stay to meld with it (Sun square Mars). Now, the Moon must emotionally grasp the feeling of “it’s now or never.”


This does not suggest that no opportunities will ever exist henceforth. What is suggested is that should one desire to really make life what one claims one wants life to become, this is the time to completely adopt, integrate and execute the “do it now” agenda that is common amongst successful and ultra creative individuals. When the door opens, be ready physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually to pass through it.


Be bold. Bold. Not boastful, bombastic or bastardly. Be kind. Be generous. Be magnanimous. If you own a tarot deck, pull out the Sun card and pin it somewhere prominent in your daily routine. For good measure, pull out the Fool card, too. Ponder the counsel of the I-Ching. “Be not sad. Be like the Sun at midday.”


That’s right. This is zenith-making time. Reach to your greatest culmination. Sure it’s a weekend. That does not mean you must wait until Monday to engage life (though depending upon where on Earth you are you may have a few hours of Moon in Leo). Nope. Use the new moon. Do it. Do it now. Be bold. Be smart. Be bright. Just be from the core of your being.


This year, which has been truly bamboozling, can now be fully engaged with bold. Brave. Optimistic, Luminous and Determined.


More soon.
