As we head out of November and into December, Mercury goes retrograde and we’ve got a Super Full Moon to go with it. Those happen when the Moon is close to the Earth in orbit so they appear unusually large, although the size of the moon hasn’t changed. How perfect for the theme of this week. Emily Trinkhaus labeled this week’s lunar theater the ‘Wound of Perception’ and it fits beautifully. Mercury goes Retrograde at the very last degrees of Sagittarius with Saturn this coming weekend, which encourages a wiser view that can stand the test of time.
Because Neptune the cloudy planet of connection, illusion, and disillusion is at odds with both the Sun and Moon, you have a chance to see where you’ve used logic to disconnect you from what matters more than common sense. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a huge fan of common sense. My complaint about it is we often use it where it does less good and doesn’t apply it to where it can do the most good. Here’s one example. Friends strongly advised me against a relationship years ago with a man who had an enormously complicated life and challenges with relationships. Common sense said it couldn’t possibly work out. They weren’t wrong, common sense is mostly based on real facts.
But here’s what they missed. I did get involved with him and while we didn’t wind up happily ever after as a romantic couple, he became one of my best friends. We cheered each other on through some dark days, shared some very difficult human moments and added a word or two of wisdom for each other with love when it was needed most. His friendship made a big impact in my life in too many ways to list. Had I listened to their wise advice, I would have missed out on thirteen years of this wonderful man in my life.
I share this personal story, something I do rarely because this Super Full Moon you can examine what you know to be True in your heart versus what you know to be intelligent choices. This can be work, friends, family or love. It’s time to understand where a fear of being hurt by an imagined outcome (Neptune’s shadow) keeps you from experiences that bring you far more than they cost. Adjust the lens and take some heart-smart trade-offs when you trust you can handle the problems that accompany the things you really love.
How you tell yourself the story of what something means is crucial to seeing what a banquet you have to feast on with clearer eyes. Trust how you feel more than just what you think. Use your mind to help you navigate how to make it a better risk instead of your mind being a Stop Sign. Instead, use it to determine how and when rather than what you choose to do. For the what, you are better off when you feel your way first. The Cards and the Stars can help.
P.S. If you are seeing this and you don’t normally get my weekly updates, it’s because this week was so important I wanted everyone to have good guidance to weather the bumps for the days ahead. So enjoy and if you want this delivered to you instead of checking back, you can get that for less than $.50 a week. Get yours here

Tarot for Day Two: Eight of Stones
Insight:
You enjoy easy aspects today as the Aries Moon moves into a sweet position with the Sun. Eights remind you, what you put out there comes back to you. So today you get to see what you’ve been broadcasting as you see what those around send your direction. You’ll see some good news show up and if some not so sweet moments also show you where you’ve been defensive or reactive at least you know what you have to work on yourself. Those student spots that need a bit of polish reveal themselves when you get bothered by the flaws that stand out in someone else today. Who’s triggered you and how – that’s some rich information to work with today. So watch, feel and learn more about what is the most authentic choice you can make in this moment.
Taking Action:
Consciously choose what you want to send out to people today knowing it has a return trip with your name on it.Bask in the way it feels when you shed the burden of those past heartaches.
