Rocket Ship Launch: Full Moon in Sagittarius

The moon is full in bombastic and wild Sagittarius, Monday, June 17(3:30am, CDT).  Celebrations ensue for Midsummer on June 21(10:54am, CDT)!  The longest day of the year gives the most hours of daylight to explore the world and discover the fruits of summertime!

It’s the essence of letting the animals out of their cages to roam free and lighting the rocket ship to watch it launch full blast!  Travel, whether through a book or on a train, fills the soul up with wisdom and new perspectives. Seeking adventures and exploring provide outlets for maximum energies that peak during Midsummer.  Dreams and schemes, which have been gestating during 2019, are born.  The risk-taking gambler comes out to play and make it big.  Celebrations and libations may be aplenty, though keep aware of imbibing too much! 

Strengths of Sagittarius are honesty and bluntness, which can shock the sensibilities at times.  Use sensitivity when communicating, as words can flare up and be extra cutting.  Anger, moodiness and irritability intensify with Mars in Cancer.  The sign of Cancer rules family, mothers, home, roots and nourishment; these areas of life are stirred.  How can we blow off steam to release some of the pressure and promote a sense of wellbeing?  Fighting instincts may be sparked by personal, cultural and political strife.  The boxing gloves are on, but the punches are indirect.  What are strategic and protective ways of responding to turmoil?
