No Aspects, No Problem: The Power of a Focused Moon

Ever wonder what happens astrologically when nothing seems to be happening? Today we explore the fascinating concept of a "focused moon" - when the Moon travels through a sign without forming any aspects to other planets. This rare phenomenon allows us to experience the pure, undiluted energy of a Gemini Moon without interference from other planetary influences.

Discover how this focused Gemini energy creates the perfect cosmic conditions for versatility, communication, and wrapping up unfinished business before stepping into new beginnings. I share a personal story that perfectly illustrates how Venus and Jupiter are working together to create unexpected opportunities through simple communication - when a chance conversation with my neighbor led to solving a home renovation challenge I'd been facing.

We also examine the Grand Air Trine involving Uranus, Pluto, and Mars that continues to influence our collective experience, creating a kite pattern in the chart that promotes intellectual breakthroughs and effective action. Learn how Mercury's connections with Mars and Uranus are providing quick mental processing and intuitive insights to help navigate changes with greater ease.

Whether you're finishing projects, seeking new opportunities, or simply trying to understand why today feels the way it does, this episode offers practical guidance for harnessing today's 8/10 astrological energy. The cosmos is clearing space for new realities to emerge - what are you ready to complete before stepping into yours?

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, astrology time, and it's Shane here, daily Astro
Cat.
Let's talk about today'sastrology, because you know what
?
There's nothing to talk about,I kid you not.
If you were to look, there areno aspects to the moon and there
are no planetary aspects.
So what is that going to meanfor us?
Well, we have a moon in Geminiall day long.

(00:23):
It's the 17th right.
There's plenty of energy hereto spare.
There's a lot of energy in thechart.
Just because it doesn't make asingle aspect doesn't mean that
it's not there and having itseffect on us, right?
Similarly, you can have emptyareas in your natal chart that
guess what.
Those areas there also haveinfluences on you, even though

(00:47):
you may not have a planet inthere making an aspect of
anything, because it makes upyour entire chart.
Now, with that being said,that's a very interesting
astrological point and hopefullyyou're here, because not only
do you like what I have to say,but you want to learn more about
astrology, because that's whatwe do here Now.
The moon not making an aspectand the planets don't make an

(01:11):
aspect, it gives us what I liketo call a focused moon.
Okay, focused moons are thoseperiods where we're just able to
embody the energy of that signthe moon is in.
So in this case, we're incancer.
Listen to me, gemini.
Okay, so we find ourselves freeand able to focus on the things
that we're going to need to bedue to start over again Now,

(01:35):
gemini, let's think about this.
Actually, I'm going to get intoit later.
Okay, I can talk about it now,but I'll just get ahead of
myself and I'll end up repeatingmyself.
Look for some, this isfigurative.
For others, including myself,this is going to be quite
literal.
We have a new beginningstarting Outstanding.
Energy is present, as Venus andMars are working with Jupiter

(01:57):
to maximize what is beingoffered.
That's an interesting thought.
I want you to hold that for asecond, because, with Mars in
Libra and Venus in Cancer, whatkind of energy could be present
there?
Well, it's a 72-degree anglecalled the quintile.
It's considered creative, sothis is a creative point for a
lot of you.
So align things up and let'sfinish them.

(02:20):
Today's keyword is everything,and the color is capri cream.
That's very specific.
Okay, the other day.
Let's talk about this for aminute, because I want to talk
about opportunities, I want totalk about communication and I
want to talk about howcommunication helped to cause to

(02:40):
create an opportunity todaythat is pretty unbelievable.
As you may know or you may notknow, we've been having our
house worked on quite a bit inthis particular cycle right,
which fits with this Jupiter incancer cycle right.
The home is a great focus point.

(03:01):
We had a lot of influence.
We had Uranus and Taurus right.
We had some changes going tothat aneretic degree with you
know where we live and how welive right Now.
With that, the other day, wehad cars parked in front, where
we usually park our car, andit's like oh, what the heck?
Why is somebody out there,right?

(03:22):
Why are we doing this again?
Why is this happening?
Now?
What ended up happening was Iended up going out and coming
back and I parked in front ofthe neighbor's house because the
car was from his house.
He said oh, shane, I'm painting, come inside and see.
So I went inside and he's likeyou know, you asked me about the
back of your house.

(03:42):
You should talk to this guyhere.
I'm using him, he's really goodand he'll give you a good price
for this right Now.
Mind you, this is all takingplace in Portuguese, okay.
So I go out, meet the guy, meethis wife and he's like look,
I'll give you a good price, letme come back.
So yesterday, saturday, I get aknock on the door and it's the

(04:06):
guy standing out there, right,his name is Danny Daniel and
he's like hey.
He says you remember me.
And I said yeah, of course Iremember you.
Oh, okay, he says, look, I'mgoing to give you a price, let's
take a walk around the house.
So you know me being my usualshameless self.
I usually wear black boxershorts.
So I just go outside barefoot,black boxer shorts on nobody

(04:29):
knows the difference, right, andwe just go around the house,
okay.
So he looks at me and he goesokay, um, he goes, uh, 2000 for
the whole thing.
I go what?
And he goes yeah, you know,just, you buy the paint, I'll
come over, get it done, I'mgoing to take everything off of
it, I'm going to power wash itand then I'm going to blast all

(04:51):
the stuff, all the old paint andchipping paint off of it.
And he says I'm going to do thewhole thing for you.
Fine, um, buy the paint.
So one of the paint colors wehave is capri cream.
That's the trim.
The other part is, uh, blue.
It's a beautiful blue color.
So you know, I'm, I'm, you know, immediately I'm like, okay,

(05:12):
this is good, we're gonna dothis.
We're going out to buy thepaint right after this.
So that's what this versatilityis.
That's what this communicationis.
This's what this versatility is.
That's what this communicationis.
This is what this Jupiter andVenus is doing for us right now.
Let's think about this.
All right, it's all abouthonoring that Venus and Jupiter.
The Grand Air Trine Look, theGrand Air Trine.

(05:33):
You know what that is.
That's where we have Uranus,that's where we have Pluto and
that's where we have Pluto andthat's where we have Mars.
Mars is still in that position.
It's not as strong as it wasand it's a little bit separating
.
But we're going to come back tothat as the sun comes around,
to that Libra season.
Right, sun goes into Libra.
We go back to that.

(05:56):
Each sextile now the sextilesare the 60-degree angles, so
think about it.
Sextile now, the sextiles arethe 60 degree angles.
So think about it.
All of those trines have marksthat kite, right, has a trine in
120 degree but also has a 60degree at the apex.
So it goes pluto, this um,neptune and saturn, and then
uranus and then mars down at thebottom, but then beyond that we

(06:18):
have mercury, and Mercury isconnecting to both Mars and
Uranus.
So we've got some veryinteresting energy here.
It almost makes a whole linearound it, that cradle position
right, and if that becomes, itbecomes a grand sextile, if it
all completes.
At some point, when the moonwas in Sagittarius it may have

(06:40):
done that, but we shall see Now,like shifting gears, these
energies right, these sextiles,you know, if you take them and
you just work around it, it kindof ramps up.
The energy can ramp up.
So you start with the firstthing that you're going to do
and you just keep on going andyou're going to accelerate as

(07:00):
you get towards the end of theday.
I told you Uranus would offer asurprise yesterday.
That's the story I just toldyou and it will need to be acted
upon, because guess what he'sgoing to start today after I go
out and get the paint?
That's going to be quiteinteresting.
Now, gemini is versatile, isversatile, thoughtful, rapid in

(07:22):
actions and communication,fleeting and very communicative
and scattered.
It can be a scattered energy.
However we tap into that today,we balance our actions.
That's how we handle it.
Because mars is in libra, welet that kite kind of take over,
right, that dream, that dreamof having the house done.

(07:46):
Right, I go outside during thesummer and I'm like, oh man, I
should be painting or somethinglike that to get done, and
that's what the important thingis To be able to do.
It is beyond taking a load offof my mind, it's liberating,

(08:08):
it's freeing.
It does some stuff, also goingto clean the gutters when he's
up there right, more liberation.
Now we're going to use thatversatility.
We're going to use that.
We use that communication.
We use the versatility.
There are things that I need tofinish up today in order to step
into my new reality.

(08:28):
It's beginning tomorrow.
Right, there's a new reality.
It's beginning for me.
Maybe it's beginning for you.
There are things that you needto finish up to be able to move
into that.
Maybe you haven't finishedthings up, maybe you haven't
decided to move.
Move, okay, make sure you'redoing it, make sure you're
getting rid of the stuff, butleave the stuff behind, right,
don't leave the stuff hanging.
Now we can go late into thenight if our bodies let us Now.

(08:54):
The reason why you didn't seethis earlier is because I
couldn't do it.
I had a day yesterday withfamily and it was pretty good,
pretty amazing.
But guess what?
It was a lot of physical stuff,because I was at my mother's
house and there's a saltwaterpool there and I had two
grandchildren in the pool plusher dog and it was just
fantastic.
I was busy all day long and letme tell you, hauling two

(09:22):
toddlers around, even in a pool,jumping up and down and doing
crazy stuff and lifting them upin the air, yeah, that can get
quite tiring and that's whereI'm at.
So that's what we're doing, sowe can go late if our bodies let
us.
Last night, my body said no way, you don't have the energy for
this, right.
And I didn't.
I couldn't do this withanywhere near the amount of

(09:44):
energy that I normally put intoit.
In 1903, joseph Pulitzer donatesa million dollars to Columbia
University and begins thePulitzer Prize in the United
States.
That's about $36,710,000 intoday's dollars.
Nice gift, right.
And in 1893, mae West.

(10:06):
You know her American stage andscreen actress.
She's an icon, right, she's awriter.
She done them wrong.
I'm no angel and she's a singer.
She did Way Out West.
And she's born in Brooklyn, newYork.
And that's what I have for you.
