Good day, good evening!

Thank you for visiting N.B., it’s Thursday, July 10th, and the lunar cycle that began in Cancer on the 25th of June is reaching culmination now. Tonight, in the feminine earth sign, Capricorn, the moon will be full.

In astrology, the moon represents the subconscious mind and the emotional body. It’s patient and receptive. The moon represents what’s beneath the surface and how we respond to our environment and the people in it.

Now, we have a little bit of a situation because we have an emotional luminary in a sign that for the most part, is unemotional.

Capricorn, for the most part, has somewhat of a reputation for being distant, cold, and depressed. That comes mostly from Capricorn’s position as the tenth sign of the zodiac. Capricorn represents the beginning of the winter, cold weather, the winter solstice, and the time of year in which the sun in the northern hemisphere is furthest from us.

However, we’re in the middle of the summer right now, so we’re not really talking about the cold weather months.

Cancer, the sign where this lunar cycle began, is the sign of loyalty and feeling, so as we bring Capricorn into balance, we know that we must demonstrate or blend in at least some of the Cancerian qualities.

It’s time to warm up. The full moon in Capricorn right now is revealing the need to create balance between our public and private lives. Capricorn is the Tenth House sign, and the Tenth House represents our image or life in the public eye, our careers, and our reputation in the community.

“Keep home at home and keep work at work.” I’m sure you’ve heard this before. I have, and I’m a big believer in this. Personally, I treat work like I did football when I was playing in college. My coworkers are just that, they’re my coworkers.

They’re not my doctor, not my therapist, not my dentist, not my priest, and not my parents. We go to work to work. We’re a group of people who come together for eight hours per day to complete a set of tasks. It’s best to not talk about anything personal, anything that’s opinion based, or anything we happen to identify with or feel strongly about (Politics/Religion).

Politics and religion divide us, and they make us fight and argue with one another. We want to unite so the work environment is harmonious. We want to operate as one team and be the best at what we do.

Let’s concentrate on the one thing we all have in common; we all work for the same company, and we all have the same boss.  If the conversation isn’t about the work you’re doing, walk away from it.

With a full moon in Capricorn, it’s possible that things, especially pertaining to work and your public image, might come to a head or reach a certain kind of climax.

Depending on where Saturn is, there might even be some type of outburst or emotional display of feelings that’s most commonly referred to as a meltdown. If it’s in the workplace and your emotions do get the best of you, it could cost you your job. Personal restraint and self-containment might be necessary now, and the moon can definitely help with that.

If it’s not a meltdown, then perhaps, we’re talking to our employers about how we feel about certain things. Maybe you didn’t get the promotion you felt like you deserved. Maybe you didn’t get the pay raise you were promised. If things need to be discussed, now is the time to do that.

If there aren’t any issues of that nature, then it’s full steam ahead. The full moon in Capricorn can make you more exacting, determined, methodical, and committed.

The full moon in Capricorn can raise our awareness concerning our public image. Listen, 90% of the perceptions people have of you are based on what you reveal to them. There’s a lot of power in this because for the most part, you control the perceptions people have of you by what you wear, how you carry yourself, and the company you keep.

In addition to what we’ve already mentioned, your public image can also be based on your involvement in the community. Things, like going to church, volunteering at the local homeless shelter, or simply opening the door for someone might have a lasting effect.

The key with Capricorn is that she knows and understands how to use what’s around her and already present in the environment. Then, she’s smart and uses cunning instead of force, and above all, it’s steady as she goes. Capricorn is looking for security, and because Saturn works so well through the Sea Goat, most Capricorns are aware that security requires structure, schedules, and order.

Having the full moon present puts an emphasis on the emotional side of things, that we otherwise, might be too busy or working too hard to see.

From the House perspective, we’re talking about the Fourth House, which begins at the location of the IC, and the Tenth House, which begins at the location of the MC. The IC is a very private and personal part of the chart, and the MC is public-it’s what everyone sees. We’re talking about the roots that are under the ground in opposition to the top of the tree-the fruits of your labor.

There’s definitely a connection, obviously, between our roots, and the type of tree we become, but life isn’t always about where you start. Plenty of people turned something out of nothing, but generally speaking, the foundations on which our lives are built must be secure and strong.

And the biggest question of all; what if you mess up? What if your tree was uprooted when you reached thirty? Now, you’re in a situation where you just lost thirty years that you’ll never get back. Divorces, drug addictions, jail time-things like that can totally uproot a tree (life) that you spent time building.

How do you re-root and start over? These are all the things now this full moon in Capricorn is going to awaken us to. This can be a highly emotional time because Capricorn isn’t one to reveal or talk about feelings.

In order to navigate your way through this time, you must become the Sea Goat. You must be patient, prudent (having or showing good judgement or restraint), disciplined, and quick to seize an opportunity or what belongs to you (especially that which you worked hard for or sacrificed for).

Capricorn is an earth sign; it’s loving and sensual, but don’t be led astray by the very things you use to experience this reality.

“All things in moderation, lest the enjoyment fade,” said the devil.

Have a safe Thursday and a wonderful weekend ahead.
