Moon in Sagittarius

It’s been lime week here in Chez Tracey.

It’s been completely accidental- I wasn’t expecting the tree to be quite so generous, it hasn’t been in previous seasons.

I haven’t fed it anything, and the poor thing did it hard over this last severely hot summer and warmer than usual autumn.

Anyway, this glut of limes has fallen into my lap, so I’ve had to push outside my usual repertoire of lime recipes to find interesting things to cook with them. And it’s been fun.

I’ve blogged a lot of it over at and anyways…

I’ve been cooking a lot over the last few weeks, I’ve been a veritable domestic diva. I suspect it will last about as long as this heavy Cancer concentration does.

Anyways, the over abundance of easy limes and my efforts to do something reminded me (again) of the Grand Water Trine. So did this non astro article by ex Olympic swimmer Lisa Forrest.

As I’ve said before, astro signals are everywhere- and often describe an aspect far better than any textbook could.

Anyways, while I’ve harped on enough about the Grand Trine, I’ll say this- Moon in Sagittarius, squaring Neptune and inconjunct Jupiter (and Mars), just might be the fire alarm or trigger point that will push you into action- that is if you haven’t already done it mindfully. As I’ve said before, the inconjunct can often force you into an action that needs to be taken- regardless of whether you’re ready for it. Like a call of “coming ready or not.”

Also exact tomorrow is the trine between Saturn and Neptune- the last part of the Grand Trine to exact. This is a time when reality and ideals may seem closer together than they have in the past, when doubts fade away and when you can begin to put into action the lessons you’ve learned… As with everything else in this set of aspects, the door has a “please open me” sign on it- the rest is your call.

A heads up- we’re in the last couple of days of Mercury retrograde. I’ve broken pretty well every rule in the retrograde manual this time around, but the energy has been great for my fiction- I’m just 2 chapters away from completing the first draft of this manuscript…in just 2 months. What can I say? Neptune conjunct natal Mercury and Mercury retrograde has been perfect for it.

I suspect the multiple re-writes and edits will take a lot longer, but let’s not talk about that right now.
