It’s a Full Moon in Capricorn tonight!  This full moon is just ONE degree away from Pluto, the intensely powerful planet of destruction and renewal.  This conjunction can bring such fervent feelings to the surface that we can find ourselves feeling obsessed and overwhelmed.  Tempers may be short and there might be conflicts involving power and control. Be careful right now to not react too strongly to any all-consuming feelings; though your intuition could be correct, your emotional connection to what you perceive is likely obscuring your rationality. The sun in Cancer is bringing up emotional sensitivity, concern about others’ motivations, and defensiveness.  If you can wait before making an action-oriented decision, that won’t be a bad thing.  How to deal with this intensity even if you can’t just hold off on acting? Don’t respond to provocation with anger or ultimatums. Be aware of controlling and manipulative behaviors.  If they’re coming from you, step back from the situation to breathe and regroup. If they’re coming from another person, also step away from that person (for now)! There is likely to be relationship tension for a lot of us now, and these battles are mirrors of our own inner conflicts.  Now is the time to meditate, journal, and pursue learning about and exploration of your own behaviors and motivations. If crisis comes, be aware of the tendency to be overly assertive or rigid in the face of change. Enter this energetic phase with the intention to transform for the better, release your expectation of what form that “should” take, and try to be gentle with yourself and others.  If you’re obsessing about something, try to focus on and get immersed in something–anything–else that you know is good for you. <3
