Aries
Net // The Hierophant // Fuck you and your politics
This eclipse cycle has been asking you to show up, speak your truth clearly, particularly as it relates to what you truly desire, particularly in the way you negotiate your work/life balance (how you take up space in your home, your values for your home life, and how you are showing up at work and in the world). On this Full Moon, you are being supported to speak your truth with your chosen family and share what is genuinely on your heart. You have such a unique perspective to share: reach out to others and connect. The Hierophant is invites us to be our own teacher, our own healer, and to prioritize our perspectives, while Net encourages us to be interdependence with our community, to reach out for support and to offer support in return. This moon is inviting you to stand firm and communicate who we are and what we truly believe. You are your own best healer, your own authority. Trust yourself and speak your truth.

Taurus
Hand // 3 of Cups // Aventurine
Express yourself, baby. This eclipse cycle has brought to life themes around how you share your ideas with the world. Maybe that has meant getting a new degree, travelling to a foreign land, or starting a blog or instagram to publish your thoughts. There is some incredibly generous energy here for you to share your work and your ideas with your community. Allow yourself to create in public, be brave enough to share your ideas with the world. There is someone out there who is desperate to hear what you have to say, and who wants to pay you for your work. This is a great moon to do work around releasing money blocks or mindset issues. Think about what work feels good to create, and how you are being called to express yourself. And work to dissolve the things blocking you from taking the leap and just doing the damn thing.

Gemini
Sun // Queen of Wands // Acorn
This is a time of consciousness raising for you, sweet Gemini. Your creative force is burning brightly and this desire for clarity can translate into creativity. This eclipse portal invites you to tap into your inner witch, and to connect to your inner fire. Listen to your higher self, Gemini. You are currently receiving important downloads regarding how you make money, your resources, your talents and innate ability to create. Simply pay attention to the messages you are receiving. Seek to find clarity, but don’t necessarily take any action just yet. There are still some eclipses to come before the nodes shift into your 1st house of self and identity. The changes that are meant to come are coming — for now, simply do the work of ensuring your mind is clear and bright so that you can understand yourself more fully — and therefore react with integrity, grace and authenticity when things start to change in May/June.

Cancer
Spider/Web // 3 of Wands // Celestite
The North Node in Cancer / South Node in Capricorn eclipse axis has been playing out in the area of your birth chart that contains your sense of self and your relationships with other people. Think back to where you were on July 12, 2018, the first eclipse of the cycle. How has your life, your identity, your purpose, your body changed? How have your significant relationships changed? Tonight, ask yourself about where your sense of self and other are entangled. What patterns and cycles keep replaying over and over? How can you break the cycle? This lunar eclipse is asking you to get brutally honest with yourself and confront the things you have been avoiding. We are coming to the end of this cycle - the last eclipse on this axis will be on July 4, 2020. Take the next 6 months to evaluate how you have changed and how you haven’t and whether you can stand firm in those choices.

Leo
Vessel // Four of Swords, RX // Carnelian
Since July 12, 2018, you have been working through big shifts in your life around the interplay between your inner, psychic life and how you are showing up in the world on a daily basis. You have had to balance care-taking yourself and your psyche as you move through big realizations and downloads related to your subconscious or hidden self. Perhaps you have seen some big changes in how you do work, provide a service, or with regards to your health (or maybe all three!). However it has shown up for you, this lunar eclipse marks a potent opportunity to heal and support yourself, even as you complete a process of shedding and releasing what is no longer serving you (which we all know can be triggering as fuck). This lunar eclipse has the power to bring forward all of the thoughts, habits and psychic energy that aren’t serving you anymore in order to be seen, processed and let go. But you are protected, sweet Lion heart. The Vessel and 4 of Swords have shown up here to support this process, to provide shelter and a space for you to process. Don’t be afraid to let folks into this shelter, if it feels safe and good — or not. Any way you choose to process is perfect, so long as it feels good and aligned for what your heart needs.

Virgo
Evergreen // 10 of Pentacles RX // A lifebuoy in winter
The Cancer/Capricorn eclipse cycle has been inviting you into a time of co-creation, collaboration, and interconnectedness with your community. How have you been showing up in your friendships and social networks over the past year and a half? What connections and relationships help to fuel your creative flow, and which ones stifle it? Who brings you joy and who leaves you feeling drained? Evergreen is showing up in this spread to remind you that you are in an extended period of blooming — even if you are feeling blocked, you always have access to your inner creativity and fire. You have all of the talent and skill you need for success within yourself. The trick is to channel and find a way to express that talent in a way that supports your desire for fun, pleasure, creativity, inner fire, interpersonal connections, friendships, communities, networks and relationships.

Libra
Spine // 5 of Wands RX // Rose Quartz
This eclipse cycle has been calling you into important and significant shifts in your home and family life, as well as your career and public life. Public vs private — what you keep for yourself vs what you share with others — being seen and in the spotlight vs retreating to recover — this push and pull has been a huge part of your life over the past year and a half. You have been asked to stand strong, to be brave, and to weather some significant storms. Don’t forget to nourish yourself with good friends, healthy habits and to pursue environments that feeling nourishing and safe. This cycle will finish up with the final eclipse in this round on July 4, 2020. 5 of Wands RX indicates this is a time to wrap up loose ends, to finally clean up the mess that this eclipse cycle has made in your life. We are moving towards the finish line, Libra. You’re almost there. Give your Venus-ruled self lots of self-love and support during the next 6 months. You’ve got this.

Scorpio
Crystal // 8 of Pentacles // Shell
You have been working hard, diligently learning and practicing your craft. The Cancer-Capricorn eclipse cycle has invited you to reflect on how you communicate and show up in the world around you, whether it is by engaging in your neighbourhood and immediate surroundings, or by wanting to expand your horizons, to travel, to move, to learn and to learn, and then share your thoughts with the world. Crystal has shown up in this spread to remind you to follow your light and your strong, strong intuition. Everything you need is inside of you already. You still have a lot of work to do, but you have the strength of will to apply yourself diligently to your craft. Keep going, sweet Scorpion. In the words of Erin Alise, creator of the Hollow Valley, “Centre yourself on the light in your chest and let that fill you with power. This is a time for agency from within.”

Sagittarius
Valley // The Lovers, RX // Calcite
The Cancer-Capricorn eclipse cycle has been calling on you to recognize and discover how you use your innate skills and talents to create safety, abundance and protection. The lunar eclipse on January 10 is bringing forward messages about how the past year and a half has asked you to shore up your boundaries and resources, and examine how you share your resources with others. What are the demands being made on your resources? What makes you feel safe and secure? The Lovers Reversed invites us to do deep self-reflection and tender self-care about where we are self-harming, whether is through comparison, neglect, or desiring something that is ultimately hurtful. Stay warm and tender as you finish out this cycle. This is a beautiful opportunity to practice self-care.

Capricorn
Fish // Ace of Pentacles RX // Aventurine
This eclipse cycle has put your sense of self and identity — and how you show up in your relationships with others — under a microscope. During this final phase, dive in deep and see what riches this eclipse season has to offer you. Journal and reflect on where you were on July 12, 2018 and how you have changed — both as a person and in your relationships — since then. Fish is inviting you to dive deep and submerge yourself in whatever it is you are moving through. Ace of Pentacles RX is here to remind you that in order to plant a seed and have it grow, you need to plant it carefully and thoughtfully. You need to water the seed. In short, you need to do the damn work. Learn to work with the flow of your creativity in order to help yourself finally become the person you have become over the course of this eclipse cycle.

Aquarius
Snake // 4 of Cups // Clear quartz & selenite
This lunar eclipse in Cancer has the potential to reveal some kind of omen, danger or warning. Listen to your intuition carefully — trust yourself to know whether a situation isn’t serving you. Trust that whatever scenarios arise over this period of time, they are coming up for you to confront them head on. Be clear and decisive in sticking with your gut. Check in with your intuition regularly — and remember that our intuition can change its mind. You might begin a process that feels good and aligned, but then the energy shifts and you start to feel a “no.” Trust that instinct, dear Aquarius. Say no to the things that don’t feel good. When in doubt, ask for more time before making a decision. This is a time to get quiet and clear on what your higher self is telling you.

Pisces
Lantern // Queen of Pentacles, RX // Bell
On this lunar eclipse in Cancer, the Lantern is leading you towards relationships, communities and networks that feel radiant and joyful to you. Under the light of this full moon, lean into what feels good and prepare to release your energetic attachment to situations and dynamics that draining you. This is not to say to cut people out or close your heart. Rather, it’s the opposite — love yourself enough to mourn and release those friendships, so that you can prove to your body and heart that you are willing to prioritize their happiness and safety over someone else’s. The Queen of Pentacles Reversed is asking us to get radically honest about how we are caring for ourselves, and whether there are any parts of ourselves that need a little extra love. This could be a big night to receive downloads about what needs to leave your life in order to prioritize your health and happiness. Take care, sweet Pisces. Remember that you don’t need to act on these messages just yet. Simply receive them and watch how things play out over the next 6 months. We will be wrapping up this cycle in July 4, 2020, so keep an eye on late June/early July in terms of finally cutting some cords.
