Get Naked


We have a new moon in Leo, and due to its angle to Mars, all this new moon can ask is this:

What’s your fantasy? Don’t lie… Everyone has one.

This is the time when we all find out what they are.

Mars, the planet of raw sex and sheer adrenaline has been coupled with Saturn, the planet of restraint and boundaries in smooth, romantic Libra. Mars is feeling more than a little emasculated, and wants to get wild.

Venus and Mercury are coupled up all cozy like in Cancer, while Pluto in Capricorn is glaring across the astrological wheel at the lil’ love doves; I wouldn’t say that Pluto is a kill joy, but would rather warn that any joy Pluto brings has the kind of strings attached to it that nobody wants…

Then we have Uranus in Aries, completing this wild and willful t-square in the four cardinal signs; they are standing off…having the same conversation but with different intentions on all sides.

Short history lesson: The last time there was a configuration even close to this one was during the 1960’s, when the sexual revolution occurred.

This new moon in Leo behaves like the little strumpet in tight red pants at a drag race, who yanks the handkerchief down to signify the beginning of the race, with her blond hair flying in the wind…

And now it’s go time.

Mars had benefited in its time with Saturn in Libra, and is now suave and sinister; imagine our sexual behavior taking on a blend of sweet, sensitive, obsessive and lethal Edward Cullen (vampire) and sexually twisted Christopher Grey (Billionaire). This is the tone that has been set, with us staring at ties and teeth with a mix of desire and revulsion.

I know I often give warnings about wild behavior; however in this instance, I have to encourage everyone to go and do what feels right, for both parties, even though it may be outside the comfort zone. This is just one of those things that need to happen. Its about evolution.

 Uranus wants us to be as wild and creative as possible, with no reservations at expressing ourselves in any kind of way. Pluto will divide the lines, and in no uncertain terms, make sure we recognize who is the top and who is the bottom.

What about Venus and Mercury?

They want to talk.

They want to talk about the whys. They want to talk about the past, about what turns you on and why. They want to know every last little detail about what makes you tick. They want to understand you, and the ties and the teeth. They will blush and bat their sweet little eyelashes, but won’t let up until they get the info they request. While Cancer is often soft and sweet, she is also a Cardinal sign and relentless at getting what she wants.

There will be a great deal of pillow talk, and this will make us all feel either unburdened or uncomfortable. Or both. Maybe the energy will lend itself more towards open sexual conversations or sexual education.

As wild as it may be, this is what we all need.

The new moon in Leo is the spark, the fire and flash of heat that jumpstarts all of this energy that was dormant and waiting to come out.

Burn Baby Burn.
