Full Moon
“Vulture’s Eye” photo by Lyn Dalebout
The Vulture is known as Pluto’s bird, synonymous with purification, death, rebirth. Tuesday’s Full Moon is taking place as the Moon transits sidereal Scorpio, Pluto’s sign. This all makes for one of the most intense Full Moon events we might experience all year long. The Vulture is associated with the mythic Griffin who is a guardian of the mysteries of life and death and is also considered to be the avenger of the nature spirits (from the book “Animal Speak” by Ted Andrews). I imagine the nature spirits might be upset with many of our human activities. I believe they are working to help us wake up to be better stewards of our Earth as well as our personal physical bodies. This is a good week to pay attention to messages you may be receiving in regards to your health (or lack of), and the health of personal and planetary life support systems.
In addition to this exceptionally intense Full Moon, we will also experience a number of delightful supportive sextiles and trines this week. Nice!
Here is a brief synopsis of Full Moon characteristics that hold true to every Full Moon. Thank you Nick Anthony Fiorenza ~ http://www.lunarplanner.com/ ~
“The latter part of this phase, building up to the Full Moon, matures our efforts into vision and enthusiasm. It is the intermixing of opposites that creates the magic to bear the fruit of our passions. The day and night just before the Full Moon is the most potent, exhilarating energy—a dynamic social and alchemical time. The Full Moon marks the point of coition in the lunar cycle, the climax, the point of excitement, a time of celebration.
The day just after the Full Moon is a time to kick back and relax. It is a time for the realization of the theme to emerge, of what the activities of the first half of the lunar cycle, culminating into the enthusiasm of the Full Moon, are really about. Relax and allow this realization to occur. There is no need to force it as it surfaces on its own.”

Tue June 2
Full Moon ~ Taurus Sun opposite Scorpio Moon: Today’s Full Moon highlights the stars of Aldebaran, the eye of Taurus the Bull, and Antares, the red hot heart of the Scorpio the Scorpion. These stars are often linked to major political events and even nuclear, explosive events. Aldebaran pressures us to organize the infrastructure of our lives so it mirrors our deepest sense of purpose and how we are using our creative potential ~ Antares. It’s about making sure your physical life is in alignment with your spiritual values and creative goals. Give some thought to that idea today and be willing to examine everything. Mercury (still in retrograde until June 11) is also giving you messages about what you need to release and what new structures you need to create, choices you want to make, that will aid you in becoming more efficient, productive and healthy with less effort and struggle.
Grand Trine in Water ~ Uranus/Jupiter/Moon: This aspect might lend itself to emotional support coming from an unexpected place, like a new person showing up to lend a helping hand. Water signs are also linked to grieving, letting go, and of experiencing a deeper level of feeling than we have previously allowed ourselves to feel. Hopefully this trine functions more like a gentle cleansing rain as opposed to the deluges of recent days.
Wed Jun 3
Moon in Sagittarius conjunct Pallas Athene: As you integrate the effects of yesterday’s extra potent Full Moon, today’s alignment increases creative inspiration and is also great for planning, envisioning, brainstorming the future, Sagittarius’s realm.
Thu June 4
Moon/Pluto in Sagittarius square Uranus in Pisces: When the Moon, which governs our deepest memories, ingrained habits and also our intuition and instinct, makes a monthly alignment with transforming Pluto, you can find it easier to break a habit, or something might breakdown, and some of you will have an emotional breakthrough, quite literally seeing into your future life.
Venus in Cancer trine Vesta in Pisces: Venus currently transiting through sidereal Cancer for a few weeks can bring a new appreciation about old family members or give you permission to decide who you want to call family. The choice is always yours. The helpful trine to focused Vesta in compassionate Pisces can bring a supportive healing to family relations, including tribal affiliations. Borders can be crossed, walls taken down.
Fri June 5
Mars in Taurus sextile Jupiter in Cancer: I like the feel of this, especially given all the recent non-stop celestial and earthly ferocity. This aspect might manifest as good financial news on some front. For you gardeners and earth workers, you can feel a real sense of accomplishment today for your dedicated efforts of late.
Venus in Cancer trine Saturn in Scorpio: This aspect, too, often brings supportive financial energy into your life. A good day to balance the checkbook or rein in the family budget. Also today, you might find it easy to make a key decision you’ve been wishy-washy about.
Sun inconjunct Pluto: The inconjunct aspect speaks to the need to make some kind of subtle adjustment to a routine, a plan, a life direction. Think of the energy of a detour, like a re-routing opportunity that ultimately will work in your favor. Patience is required.
Sat June 6
Moon/Ceres conjunction in Capricorn: As the Moon often governs what we need to do, either by necessity or by an unconscious drive, when it makes a monthly alignment with Ceres ~ caregiving, nurturing ~ currently transiting responsible organized Capricorn, a few choices might arise.You will feel driven to organize your home or yard, you will be called upon to help an elder or mentor a young person, or you may have to be the grownup in the room.
Sun June 7
Sun in Taurus trine Moon in Capricorn: The Sun makes an annual conjunction with the star of Rigel in Orion, common in the charts of real estate moguls, commercial architects, builders and developers. Be one today: design your life in bold adventurous ways. The helpful trine to the ambitious Capricorn Moon gives us all a chance to redesign our life and life systems so they better match a more expansive vision of what we want our life to look like going forward. Today can be an extraordinarily productive day on all fronts.
Mon June 8
Sun in Taurus sextile Jupiter in Cancer: Here’s another delightful astrological configuration. Thankfully, we’ve had a number of them this week and this week ends on a high note. Similar in tone to Friday’s Mars/Jupiter sextile, the solar light of activation forms a stimulating sextile to the optimistic joyful energy of Jupiter. You may feel confident you have enough resources to splurge on something special that makes you happy. Go for it and give gratitude (Jupiter’s word) to the Universe for supporting you as well.
Moon/Neptune conjunction in Aquarius: This monthly merging of Neptune ~ creativity, spiritual inspiration, dreams ~ with the intuitive Moon taking place in visionary, community-minded Aquarius bodes well for supportive conversations with friends, breakthrough collaborations, a tangible recognition of being supported by your spirit Guides.
