Today’s Oracle takes us to the Pisces monthly for June 1, 2006.

Put all the energy this month to work for you. It seems you have several important issues on the here-and-now queue, and the time to address them is here and now. You’ve had considerable experience the past year with moving over, through and around a wide diversity of challenges, some of which have represented an actual threat and others of which have been an inconvenience. The trick now is to expend a small fraction of the energy you have in the past, and allow your intentions to guide your life more than your physical actions. The power of will is exceptionally strong right now — particularly your own.

Consider how far you’ve come at least in the past few months, and let that serve as a strong encouragement for your onward journey. A long phase of your growth is reaching its culmination, and the fruits of your work are likely to show themselves in short order. You have the power to bring about the changes you seek, especially in terms of asserting your independence and gaining influence in the world.

Depending on when you read this, today’s Libra Full Moon may already be separating (it’s exact at 7:12 am EDT / 11:12:03 UTC). If that’s the case, hopefully you’re beginning to feel a little relief if a situation got tense or confrontational; things should start to resolve themselves. If you’re trying to figure out what the heck has been going on in that regard, the aspects featured in yesterday’s Written in the Planets are still in force and worth a review; you can also find more detailed information about this Libra Full Moon here.

The Moon enters Scorpio about an hour and a half after its opposition to the Sun peaks; it then opposes Uranus in Taurus almost immediately. If you encounter some kind of surprise or disruption to your routine today — especially one that seems to come from someone else — you’re right on schedule. Scorpio Moons can be known for their ability to respond with strength and energy when circumstances require it. Can you add ‘flexibility’ and ‘curiosity’ to that skillset? Those could be just what you need to investigate whatever pops up today (or to get beneath reactions that accompanied the Full Moon). You may even uncover some inner power that was previously hidden from your full recognition.

Your mother’s emotional pain shows up powerfully as a factor in your relationships this week, particularly her tendency to exaggerate. You seem to have internalized this habit in some form, and don’t know what to do with it. You basically have two choices: get caught in the drama, or move right in the direction of its antithesis: conscious emotional and sexual nourishment. Turning this backwards, both the pain and the exaggeration are cover stories for a reluctance to be emotionally generous. You may think you feel better when you’re not giving of yourself. Yet I suggest you be honest about this and notice how you feel when you give sincerely from your deepest well. Get the hang of this and you’ll discover this is the well from which you can nourish yourself.

Remember that you have control over your actions, especially those you take over a longer period of time. Taken in some lights, this is encouraging: however strong or compelling your impulses, you ultimately possess the hand that steers the chariot. The very energy pressing you to act in a specific way can be channeled deliberately and consciously into the work you intend to do. It may help you to pause and think before you make each move.

Written in the Planets

Tomorrow morning’s Full Moon in Libra is coming into full strength today, and you’ve probably noticed it. Stretching across the axis of ‘fired-up individualist’ Aries and ‘relationship harmony above all’ Libra, this one has real potential to provoke some strong reactions in people. Is that person you, or someone you’re dealing with? Or both? With the Sun and Moon opposing each other in the very last degrees of their respective signs, there could be an added edginess.

Consider it your mission to watch for that sensation, and then breathe into it — or, maybe even better, dance with it — to minimize sharpness (or going a little too far) in your reactions. Remember that while oppositions often represent confrontations, they can just as easily describe the kind of meeting and negotiation of movement illustrated by two people ballroom dancing. It’s all just energy looking for an outlet; you get to be as creative and aware in that process as you’d like. When in doubt, or if feeling especially pressured, consider leaving any major decisions or conversations until after the Full Moon peaks (at 7:12 am EDT Friday), when you may feel things begin to relax some.

Note that today we also have Venus in Pisces squaring the Galactic Core in Sagittarius. Ixion, an awareness-raising centaur associated with amoral behavior and how we do (or do not) make good on second chances — is also in that pattern. Are you willing to express your most empathetic, agape-style love via your higher calling? Do you feel haunted or intimidated by how easily aspirations can detour into less-than-ethical choices? Consider noticing what is pushing to come out via your most idealistic or sensitive leanings today. Trust your instincts and intuition — without losing sight of things like the Golden Rule and the laws of cause/effect and consequences. They always matter, and they matter most at times like this.

Every person comes equipped with shadow material. This is a fact of psychology as we understand it today. Where did these fears, injuries, judgments and dark spots come from? We can identify many sources, but they are all in the past. That is the one thing they have in common and the one thing we need to remember: something in the past is affecting us now; something in the past is acting like, or tricking us into thinking that it’s in the present time. You are now in a moment of sorting out. The question you can ask yourself is, how much do you want to be influenced by things that happened one or five or thirty or more years ago? The more you ask that question, the more influence you will have.

Pay attention to your environment, and to your emotional responses. Consider no form of information as inherently needless. The world around you is rich and vibrant, and is inviting you to share in its glories. You may be on the brink of realizing something that has previously been just out of your reach; once you obtain it, much is likely to make sense all of a sudden. Breathe the living air around you and let it kindle inspiration.

Written in the Planets

Mercury moves into Aries today, which may pick up the pace of any ongoing mental meanderings. Aries tends to be a decisive placement for the planet of the mind and communication, though, which could help if you need to get a handle on your thought processes. Mercury here can also be prone to impulsive decisions, and can get frustrated with delays in addressing problems. Given that we’re heading for a Full Moon in Libra (in the last degree of that sign) on Friday morning, it’s worth noting that the Moon enters Libra shortly after Mercury enters Aries. So that’s kind of like a mental-level trial run of the Full Moon energy — and it’s a good reminder to stop and think before you speak.

Note that pushing the ‘pause’ button before you express yourself is not the same as bottling everything up. But it might mean the difference between throwing fuel on a fire that you did not realize was smoldering just below the surface. Libra Moons indicate a preference for harmony; sometimes to the detriment of direct self-expression. So today could feature one person taking a forthright and uncomplicated approach to a situation, and the other person involved trying to steer interactions with diplomacy. You might even find yourself switching between those two roles.

Another thought: as Mercury moves into contact with a few key minor objects early in Aries and Capricorn, track where your thoughts are being drawn. Do you feel like you’re searching for a point of action, leverage or pressure-release between who you are (or think you are) and the patterns of your family of origin? Is any of this material coming through as previously repressed sexual energy, or something about your sexuality that you prefer to keep secret? If you can find a way in the coming days to express whatever it is safely (which still might feel risky, daring or just plain scary in its vulnerability), you may discover that you don’t even have to say that much to enjoy a sense of relief and acceptance of yourself.

Wise old astrology books remind Aquarians to fill their urn before trying to ladle out the water to everyone else. This is spiritual healing 101 — take care of yourself so that you can take care of others. There is some good logic to this, including the fact that when you’re nourished, prepared and alert, you will be more helpful and less at risk of hurting anyone in the process of assisting or serving them. That is the message of your charts now. Get yourself oriented in your physical space, which seems to have undergone some changes lately. Make sure that you have whatever provisions you need. Get your work organized to the level where at least you know what you need to do and approximately when you need to do it. This will create some boundaries to work within. Over the next few days, make sure you take plenty of time to yourself. Set aside obligations to others. Get rest and drink water.
