Om Kapaliniyai Namaha
Sun: 19 Aries
Moon: 27 Libra, 188 degrees from Sun, Full Moon
Inner Moon: days 15-21, ovulation
Moon Vibes:
The healer, artist. Our humanity shines bright and the desire to connect with the resonate polarity is strong. Artistic and creative expressions are made manifest during full Moon phase. This is the polarity of our solar and lunar nature in orgasmic celebration and peak fertility during full Moon phase. In tantra yoga, this is the union of Moon and Sun, in and out-breath at the heart, breath pause kumbhaka. Relates with dawn and the element is earth. In the hero’s journey, this is the sacred Marriage of resonate polarities, between the archetypes of Sun/Moon. In the menstrual cycle, this phase is ovulation. The egg is released from ovary into fallopian tubes and the possibility of ferritization is greatest. Metaphysically, this is when we fertilize our creations with thought seeds and manifestation rituals have the greatest potential. The prime hormone for this phase is estrogen which stimulates luteinizing hormone which stimulates the release of the egg. This is also the peak of testosterone in the cycle so we see a lot of hormonal stimulation at full Moon phase. The full Moon phase is about 72 hours, which also coincides closely to the time from onset of ovulation where fertilization is possible. Orgasm, ovulation, the moment of truth, polarity connection, endorphin high. Use foods that are packed with flavor, colorful, juicy and nutrient dense.
Moon in Libra moving into scorpio:
Moon moving from relational Libra into transformative Scorpio by evening, still in full phase. Moon square with Pluto/Jupiter: viscerally feeling the decomposing of old Capricorn structure. The almost-too-bright light of Jupiter illuminates the depth of Pluto in process. This process goes on now through January 2021.
Moon moving into exact opposition at 10:30 pm with Uranus, allow changes around your lunar nature.
Nutrition suggestion:
Scorpio foods are seductive, look like genitals, and often are clarrified as aphrodisiacs. One of my favorite Scorpio foods are figs. They are dark (not all of them) and resemble ovaries and testicles. They aren’t in season here in California, but pretty easy to obtain as dry fruit. You can always soak them for an hour or two to rehydrate them. They turn me on, in good Scorpio fashion. Give them a try!

What phase of your inner Moon cycle are you in? What hormones are most prominent? How does this relate with outer Moon’s “Full” phase? Remember, your cycle and Moon cycle do not need to match. Read more about the correspondences here.
Dreams:
What if “evil” was just vitality that has been rejected, locked away, or let go of. In dreams, this vitality may show up as a villain or an evil character. In order to reintroduce this vitality into your life, take every opportunity to become curious about things you’ve labelled as evil. Tonight in your dream temple, expect to engage with a dark character with this attitude of curiosity and desire for integration.
