WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
The moon's astrological sign changes every 2 to 2 1/2 days, as she is the fastest moving of all the planets in the zodiac. Her lunar transits indicate daily and hourly moods, which can change as quickly as the moon's sign. When we attune our activities with the lunar flow, we become a channel for the wisdoms of the natural world. Approach each moon cycle as a journey and a teaching.

The new moon always rises and sets with the sun (the sun and the moon are in conjunction) and it is the very best time to seed new beginnings! So get to it!

If the transiting moon is conjunct (the same sign and degrees), as your natal sun or moon sign, it is a time of strength and authority, and a good time to center and look within your intuitive self more clearly to reconnect with your primary mode of emotionality.

You may want to create a ritual for these times (called returns) when the moon is in the same sign as your sun, moon , and other personal planets. This can give you the opportunity to ground yourself and attune to these energies. If you are interested in a having a New Moon psychic reading done please send me an email and I can analyse your chart to find out what area of your life will be feeling it's influence the most.

This is a good time for organizing and manifesting our ideals, planting strong roots and grounding our intentions.

And if you're really daring get ready to:
- Re-imagine 2009.
- Search your soul and work with Goddess spirituality to power up the future.
- Accept that you are radical evolutionary cultural workers and you are needed!

Tiamat is a Babylonian dragon goddess; one half of her body became the dome of heaven and the other half became a wall to contain the the earth's waters.

Spotlight on Capricorn Artist Erica Lea:
"My mom and I are both Capricorns and artists. However, being Capricorns means we tend to be our own worst critics. We have to watch that we don't let the tendency for perfection stop us from creating altogether. In the end, though, I think it's a bonus to be Capricorn artists - we both have an amazing eye for detail and realism in our work, and it shows. Besides, the artist side helps soften the practical Capricorn side and allows more room to dream."
