Mercury, the planet of movement, communication and travel moves into the air sign of Libra today until November 5th. 

What this means for all of us as a collective is that we can expect life to be a lot more balanced. As a sign represented by the scales, Libra knows that life is a continually changing balancing act. We move, we shift, and we realign as needed, and as many times as we need. After all, Libra gives us the bigger picture perspective to realize that doing what is best for us, is also what is best for all those around us. And when weighing options, tuning into your heart and putting yourself first, allows you to live a life that honors and upholds these decisions. From there, allow yourself to let go of any fears or biases that hold you back from connecting to this space. Then, allow yourself to reveal it to those around you. For as a sign that is a natural diplomat, this will be a great time to express and communicate these decisions with love + kindness to those around you as you find greater harmony and peace within yourself. This inner work, acceptance, and exploration will then allow all of us to authentically connect and communicate from a more peaceful, balanced and loving place both for oneself and one another! 

With so much love,

Elysian on Earth

Similar to our last full moon on July 23rd, last night’s moon was in the eclectic + airy sign of Aquarius.

Known as a humanitarian and a natural rebellion, they shine in their own right. They are brilliant, quick and know that being unafraid to stand in your own light, is one of the most magical and healing things you can do for yourself, those around you, and the entire universe. After all, being open to change is one of the most powerful forces in this life, and even more so if you are the one enacting it.  For in this one life, why live your life based on the outdated and normalized societal constraints, if that is not what your heart and life is calling from you?

With that,  with this second full moon in Aquarius, I hope you have gathered and grounded into even more courage to continue unfolding and creating your life in the direction of your opening heart. May she continue to shine light on the darkest parts of your depths, and may you continue showing that beauty with the world. 

Lots of love, 
Elysian on Earth

​Today, Uranus​ the planet of change, rebellion, revolution and advancements (both technologically and creatively) goes retrograde in the sign of Taurus. As a transpersonal planet or outer planet that moves at a slower pace than say the moon or Venus, it spends roughly 7 years in each sign. With it being retrograde, it means that the planet appears to be spinning backwards from Earth’s view and its usual effects move inward. Uranus retrograde occurs for 5 months of the year and with it being in the fixed, Earthly sign of Taurus, we can expect its usual extreme nature to be more slow, steady + grounded leading to a gradual but eye opening change in our lives!

Remember, you are the author of your story!

​Rewrite and edit your chapter as many times as you need! + Remember that although you can not change the past, you can make conscious decisions to reframe your thoughts towards it, and choose actions now than can change your ending! You got this boo boo!

Rise + shine lovely! Today Venus, the planet of love + beauty moves into the airy sign of Libra until Sept 10.

Overview of Venus in Libra

• ​With Venus being in of an air sign it ushers in new and refreshing energies into your relationships! Excited and curious- explore the connection to yourself and others and be open to trying new things during this time! 
• As a sign represented by the scales- it it important to balance the energy you put into others + yourself! Be sure to not spread yourself too thin and to fill your cup first before rushing to fill others! 
• Libra is actually ruled by the planet of Venus, so making time to connect with the things that make you feel beautiful and full will leave you glowing from the inside out! 
• Be sure to balance and honor your feminine and masculine energies- after all the relationships outside of you often reflect the most relationship of all- your relationship with you! As such, if you run into any difficulties or triggers during this time- ask yourself what it is showing about you- then adjust accordingly! 

Lots of love- Elysian on Earth 

Mercury the planet of communication moves into the sign of the Maiden- Virgo. This transit will occur until September 5th when it moves into the sign of Libra! 

​Mercury in Virgo Overview

• As the natural ruler of Virgo- ​Mercury is exalted in the sign of Virgo- meaning that it thrives in this placement! 
• As an Earth sign- communication during this time will be very grounded, honest and upfront! 
• You will be more open to speak your mind in order to improve the harmony of your life and others. 
• We will choose our words wisely in order to appeal to others both logically and rationally! After all, as a sign also known as a perfectionist- words and communication will be well thought out, delivered and executed! 
• Be open minded and curious to the different ways communicate! 

Overview of a new moon
Traditionally, new moons were seen as a symbol of new beginnings- a time when the sky appears at its darkest as we begin something new- both in nature and as a collective! For like the moon that mirrors us in the sky above, we too have cycles of growth, reflection and rest in order to ground all of the lessons and experiences we have gathered thus far. A time to take inventory of all the people, places and things that have gotten us to this moment- both light and shadow aspects- so that we can truly tap in- and think about and align with what we would like to continue build or gather moving forward.

​New moon in leo
​With the new moon being in the sign of creative and confident Leo- a fire sign- this moon will bring about a time for us to think about how we show up in this world. A time to think about what makes your heart glow and your light shine and a time to let go of and release anything that dulls that shine. After all, Leo’s are known for brilliantly beaming in their own divine and unique light! With that- to take advantage of this transit in the cosmos, step into your god given gifts, open your heart, mind and body to the energy around you and back yourself! Release whatever fears or past traumas may be dimming or taking away from your light and trust in the universe- by jumping into the depths of all of your light. 

Lots of love,

Elysian on Earth
