Full Dog Days Moon

Full Dog Day’s Moon
By Tara Sutphen

Full Dog Day’s Moon (colonial) at 20* Aquarius will culminate August 13, 2011 11:57am pdt/ 2:57pm edt (almanac). This Full Moon is an opportunity to be open and trust your future. No more pessimism or “I can’t”. You are born of the earth and your two feet are on the ground…start walking your talk and talking your walk. Life is meant to be lived. We go through blocks and sour people along our way, and it’s time to stop letting them knock you down. Get up, brush off and start moving forward.

How bad do problems have to get before concentrated effort of changing what you can. And if you can’t transform people or your circumstances, where do you make adjustments for you. What has to happen before you make a distinction of people, jobs, and behaviors. What feedback do you need. Are you staying in relationships and jobs that are only tolerable or satisfactory. Is the unrest with you, the circumstances or the job? Sometimes situations seem irredeemable. Do you fix it or let it go.

If you aren’t examining your reactions, and you find yourself anxious or frustrated, you could be letting life happen to you, instead of making the power of a choice. Living life a lot of the time feels like a pretend atmosphere. We have to work at keeping life “real”. Set up a list of your ideas and ideals. See if they are close to what you are living and experiencing and if not, you’ll need to adjust to feel more in control and less stuck with unfinished business. Start living a more suitable life. In the light of the moon you have a brighter vision of your tomorrow. You are actively seeking to bring yourself to a high prospective and living life to your fullest potential.
