Full Moon in Pisces-Virgo on Sept. 17th

This Full Moon is on Tuesday evening, September 17th at 7:34 pm PDT.

This is known as the Harvest Moon as this is the time of year when crops are ready to be harvested. It is also known as the Corn Moon or the Falling Leaves Moon by various cultures, as well as other similar names. This particular Full Moon is a Super Harvest Moon due to the fact that it is closest to the Earth which makes it appear to be larger and brighter.

We have a Full Moon when the Sun and Moon are astrologically in opposing signs. At the time of this Full Moon, the Sun is in Virgo and the Moon is in Pisces at exactly 7:34 pm PDT. The Virgo Sun is practical, detail oriented, and grounded. The Moon in Pisces, on the other hand, is more expansive and teaches us that we are connected to all things. Pisces heightens our energetic sensitivity, and we can explore our inner consciousness to a greater extent as we realize our unlimited potential.

This is also a time of a Lunar Eclipse.

Save the date. Our Autumn Equinox ceremony is on September 21st at 5:00 pm on Facebook Live and replays will be available on the Druids of the Light Facebook page, as well as my personal Facebook page; Linda Mae Costello.

Remember, I am available for soul-based psychic readings and counseling sessions by phone, by Zoom, or even in person if you are in Sedona. Contact me to schedule something, if that interests you.

Blessings of this Full Moon to you as well as the Autumn Equinox.

New Moon in Virgo

The New Moon is on September 2, 2024 at 6:56 pm PDT (Arizona time).

This is the end of our last lunar cycle and the beginning of the new cycle. Astrologically, but the Sun and Moon are conjunct in Virgo on the 2nd. This year, the New Moon is also on Labor Day. It’s a time of new beginnings so it’s a time to start new projects, set intentions, and getting your ducks in a row to make things happen.

The New Moon in Virgo is very practical, grounding, and detail-oriented. It’s a great time to get organized, analyze your goals, and take practical steps towards your dreams and goals without being too self-critical. Focus on healthy routines and implement efficient systems to get things done step by step. It’s also time to seek wholeness by aligning mind, body, and spirit.

There are many favorable aspects to this New Moon.

Full Moon in Aquarius-Leo on August 19, 2024

The Full Sturgeon Moon falls on August 19th at 11:26 AM PDT ( Arizona time).

This is known as the Full Sturgeon Moon due to the abundance of Sturgeons in North America’s lakes at this time of year. Since it is also harvest season, it is also called the Full Fruit Moon or the Black Berries Moon, and other such names.

We have a Full Moon when the Sun and Moon are in opposition astrologically. For this moon cycle the Sun is in Leo and the Moon in Aquarius is directly opposed the Sun at 11:26 am PDT. Leo is powerful, and is often impressing others and earning praise and admiration for a variety of achievements. Aquarius, on the other hand, has the power to bring about our bold spirit, offering us greater freedom from social norms, the judgements of others, and obligations that weigh us down. As a result, this Full Moon has to awaken hidden talents and provide revelations that free us from the barriers that hold us back.

Aspect-wise, there is a lot going on… an irrepressible urge for freedom vs the desire for commitment and security.

Please note that our Lughnasadh ceremony was on August 3rd on Facebook Live. The video is still available for replay on the Druids of the Light Facebook page. You can also find it under DOL Videos on my personal Facebook page: Linda Mae Costello. Our Autumn Equinox is scheduled for September 21st. More about that soon.

Sincere love and blessings to you during this Full Moon period!

New Moon in Leo on August 4th

The New Moon is in Leo on Aug 4, 2024, at 4:14 am PDT (Arizona time). This is the beginning of the new lunar cycle. It’s a time of new beginnings and a time of renewal. It’s a great time to start new projects, set intentions, and taking initiative to get started.

The New Moon in Leo is related to being in the spotlight and impressing others, thus earning praise and admiration. Yet, also realize that Leo energy doesn’t particularly like criticism so just do your best to accept feedback and use it for self-improvement. Leo is also very playful and heart-centered, so be open to following your heart, and expressing your feelings, even if it means taking a risk. Your dreams and visions will guide you.

It’s also a great time to look at things from a higher perspective – what’s in the greatest good for self AND others. And although generally energetic, do take time to rest and rejuvenate when needed.

There are also some interesting aspects. Watch the video to learn more about helpful sextiles as well as Mercury retrograde, and more.

Please note that our Lughnasadh ceremony will be on Facebook Live on the Druids of the Light Facebook page on Saturday, August 3rd at 6:00 pm PDT. The ceremony will include a New Moon working. Replay will be available after the ceremony.

Blessings of the first harvest and this new moon to you!

This is known as the Buck Moon due to new bucks growing their antlers at this time of your. It’s also sometimes called the Thunder Moon due to many thunderstorms at this time of year, and also the Hay Moon as the farmers get ready to start harvesting hay to be stored for the winter.

When we have a full moon, astrologically, the sun and moon are in opposing signs. At the time of this full moon, the Sun is in the final degrees of Cancer and the Moon is in the final degrees of Capricorn, and exactly opposed at 6:08 pm. Cancer has to do with family and home, compassion and caring, whereas Capricorn is more about structure and responsibility. Pay attention as things arise and take on challenges with grace and positivity whenever possible.

New Moon in Cancer on July 5, 2024

The New Moon in Cancer is exact at 3:57 pm PDT (Arizona time). This is the end of one lunar cycle and the beginning of the next. It’s a time of new beginnings and setting intentions for this moon cycle.

The New Moon in Cancer is related to home, family, and such activities as cooking, gardening, home improvements. It brings a maternal instinct regardless of your gender. You may be prone to some emotional fluctuations. Both the Sun and Moon are in Cancer which is a water sign, and that brings in more sensitivity. Learn to forgive and forget in order to avoid depression or thinking too much about things. As you use your emotional sensitivity in a positive way, you can bring more of a sense of comfort and safety as you embrace new beginnings.

There are several interesting aspects both before and after the New Moon.

This Full Moon period begins late Friday afternoon, June 21st at 6:08 pm PDT (Arizona time).

This is known as the Strawberry Moon due to the ripening of strawberries. It is also sometimes called the Honey Moon due to the production of honey at this time of year, or the Rose Moon due to roses blooming. This Moon is known as a symbol of love, purity, and prosperity. It’s time to savor life’s sweetness. Strawberries are also associated with the heart chakra, so this is a time of greater compassion for self and others and a reminder that we are all a part of something greater than ourselves.

At the time of this Full Moon, the Moon is in Capricorn and the Sun is exactly opposed the Moon in Cancer. Cancer as a water sign, is about hearth, home, and family, a sensitive and compassionate approach to life. Capricorn is an Earth sign ruled by the planet Saturn, the planet of structure and responsibility. This Capricorn Moon brings a sense of groundedness, determination, and ambition. Integrity and self-awareness help us to set firm boundaries when needed, to honor our commitments, and to navigate the complexities of life with clarity and purpose, even while we balance with kindness and care.

There are some significant aspects that can affect our moods and assist in communications and introspection.

The New Moon manifests itself by the need for changes and spontaneity. It’s a good time to be more talkative and speak with ease.
