Full Moon in Capricorn

Hey it's FULL MOON IN CAPYBARA!

Or Capricorn or whatever goat-fish is local to you.

I unapologetically am reusing this joke and picture from the Cap new moon 6 months ago because we are all reaching the peak of a cycle started then, a cycle of evolution in our work and physical presence in the world. What has sprung out of your earnest hard work this year? How have you shown up consistently in your life? How does your work ground you with joy and play? You're at the top of this cycle and can look around and see what's gotten you here before continuing on. This is a point of both clarity and hands-on action. I think this full moon will actually really feel great for a lot of people, because we love to feel like we can see where we're going and what to do to get there. Today you can see practical course corrections, next steps, and concrete to-do lists.

This full moon also brings together Cap's steady earth with Cancer's intuitive water. In the past few weeks, I've been getting messages about trusting the body's wisdom. We're now at a point where our bodies' messages are strong and clear. Today is a great time to be actively, generously kind to your body -- like your body is a beloved child. Hug yourself, give yourself healthy treats, take yourself out to play. And ask your body for wisdom about what you do in your daily life, like your work, job, food, sleep, play, practices. Just intend to feel the answer in your body and notice what physical sensations come through, then journal it out. Nbd if you're not sure what you're sensing, make it up and journal anyway.

May your full moon be full of good work and play and clarity. And maybe some capybara videos for inspiration.

New Moon in Capricorn

NEW MOON IN CAPYBARA
I mean Capricorn, you know, the other goat-fish. 
This is the last new moon of 2016, it's a great time to look back over the year and release old stuff and set new intentions, and that's really important, but it doesn't have to be serious and heavy. You don't need to plan out every detail of the coming year now. What will really help those intentions along, and make release easier, is some lightness. Shake it out, be playful. Nobody is grading you, and you won't get more out of the experience if you approach it with rigid rules. Cap is responsible and earnest, and in that earnestness is a kernel of sweetness and joy. Tap into THAT as you work with the energy of the new moon and new year. There's hard work at hand, but it's also awesome and transformative and fascinatingly weird, all at once. Laughter feeds your spirit, that's so greeting-card obvious, but it's true. Play with animals and children, watch comedy, do your silliest dance. You'll get more out of this time if you can let it be lighter.
