Full Moon in Capricorn
This Sunday July 9th there is a Full Moon in Capricorn (17 deg), and you’re likely already feeling it!
Full and New Moons are influencing us whether we realize it or not, The tide goes in and out with the moon’s new and full moon phases, and likewise our emotions are triggered by planetary movements. Knowing about what the planets are doing helps make sense of behavior and feelings.
What message does this Full Moon bring to us? There’s quite the feeling of electricity in the air, which can leave you feeling buzzed. This Full Moon is a degree away from Pluto in Capricorn. The Sun and Mars are opposing them in Cancer. Mars isn’t extremely close, but in this case we’re definitely feeling Mars energy, Pluto energy, and Saturn energy.
Full Moons amplify emotions and bring things to a head. Astrological events don’t create issues that aren’t already within you or around you somewhere. They bring things to the surface or to your attention so that they can be addressed, ideally in a healthy, positive way (that’s where knowing these triggers are happening becomes useful!). It presents a push to explore opportunities or get out of your comfort zone and express your needs.
The Full Moon may bring up questions like… Is there anything I’m not expressing? Are my needs or desires being fulfilled? Is there something in my life needing healing, closure, transformation or release?
This Full Moon is in practical, ambitious Capricorn, squaring Jupiter in Libra. Jupiter is all about expansion and abundance, and a square is a challenge and that can make things feel a bit tense. There may be some dreams you are really wanting to move into right now, The Full Moon brings your emotions to a climactic moment, so you could feel like you are about to explode, Don’t give up! This is a time to step away, take some deep breaths, do some yoga, go to a workout class, get out in nature, have a swim in the ocean, bake some cookies, anything to clear your head which is being filled by a climax with intensity.
The Full Moon is pretty much right on Pluto. Pluto is all about deep, deep transformation. He’s about diving in to our shadow side and seeing what we’d usually rather avoid or confronting what we have a hard time owning about ourselves (both the good qualities and the not so good). Pluto asks us to look at how Power and Control are manifesting in our lives. Where is it appropriate to let go, surrender and trust your Soul to direct the show in ways you may not currently understand? Pluto helps us get clear on these lines, although we usually go through quite a bit of push/pull/resistance before we get to the clear part! Keep up and keep going!
Pluto will ruthlessly destruct anything we have outgrown, and whatever no longer serves us. Pluto gets you onto your highest evolutionary path, and he tends not to do it in a gentle way. With this Full Moon right on Pluto, more people than usual will feel his energy and so be aware of the fact that this weekend can trigger a short yet intense dark night of the soul for some. Nurture yourself, take care of yourself and if you can, extend some nurturing to anyone in your circle who is going through a hard time. It is going to be a big Full Moon weekend for sure!
Transformative Blessings

A Mind as Clear as Air Ocean Meditation
The ocean is a great place for meditation. At the beach, the boundaries between sand, sea and sky become one. It can be difficult to tell exactly where one ends and another begins. As waves reach the shore, they soak into the sand; crashing waves stir up sand, mixing it with water. Ocean mist rises as breaking waves curl around and splash through the air. This merger of water, earth and air can be a helpful creative visualization for meditation.
With your body receiving the breath like sand receives water, allow the mind, your attention, to infuse all elements. The interaction of ocean and air creates bubbles in the water; the sand has space for air between each grain. As the air is present in both the water and sand, let your mind follow each movement and stay present with the breath and body until the breath serves to unite mind and body just as the sea blends with the air and sand at the water’s edge.

The Gong Show: ABC
On this Stage, Anything Goes! We are so grateful when opportunities arise to be in the studio, on set, at a live taping for an upcoming tv show, game show, or any other new premiers.
This has been a favorite, I must say, what a great trio Zach Galifianakis, Jack Black, and Will Forte as they rotate as celebrity judges for The Gong Show. Every episode features non-traditionally talented performers chosen from the internet and put in front of the revolving panel to show off their talents and the winner receives rewarding prizes.
The network has been given a 10-episode order to The Gong Show, a revival version of the amusing talent show competition, which is being executive produced by Will Arnett and his Electric Avenue Production. The person who is actually doing the hosting is someone we are definitely familiar with. It’s former Saturday Night Live star Mike Myers playing a fictional British comedian named Tommy Maitland, full force with prosthetic make-up enhancements, a false background and everything.
U.S. audiences aren’t familiar with the fictional host yet. The host loves to entertain, but says he can be a bit of a cheeky monkey. Nothing terribly dirty, just a little naughty at times. And he truly enjoys America – as he says: they’re very good, Americans, for the most part.
He asks the audience, “Who’s a cheeky monkey?” Then the audience goes, “You are.” And he says, “No, you’re a cheeky monkey, and that’s why I love you.” It’s the opening catchphrase and is so cute!
You can expect to see a lot of wacky talent come through. We were laughing all throughout the taping of the show for it’s absurdist humor and style, outlandish losing acts being more memorable than the winners, awarding prizes, and the comedian behind Wayne’s World and Austin Powers seems to love to be in full character for the talent show gig. It’s exciting we’re soon going to see more of Mike Myers. His last appearance in a live-action film was Inglorious Bastards, in which he played a British general under heavy prosthetics. Now, he’s playing a British comedian under prosthetics, in this fun ABC’s revival of The Gong Show, once hosted by the recently departed Chuck Barris (who was played by Sam Rockwell in Confessions of a Dangerous Mind). Myers’ character, British performer Tommy Winston Maitland, is the new face of the talent contest.
The variety show, which will premiere June 22, 2017 is filled by an impressive rotation of celebrity guests who turn up in multiple episodes, such as Zach Galifianakis, Ken Jeong, Alison Brie, Andy Samberg, Elizabeth Banks, Joel McHale, Dana Carvey, Will Forte, Jack Black and Anthony Anderson are among the others. Each of them praise, or critique and “gong” the contestants, to leave the stage or continue the performance. Similar to Showtime at The Apollo how people would boo or clap you off or on stage due to the liking of your performance.
Taped in front of a live audience 🙂 The Gong Show is produced by Electric Avenue Productions, Den of Thieves in association with Sony Pictures Television and Principato Young Entertainment.
Arnett executive produces with Evan Prager, Jesse Ignjatovic and Peter Principato. Jared Morell, Jordan Barrow and Marc Forman co-executive produce. Check it out this summer! For more information about The Gong Show click here

Stand Up For Yourself Gracefully
Intuition is knowing when to say no, and when you can move your limits.
Learn to feel it in your body – are there any situations where your body tells you to stand up for yourself more? Doing it all with grace will make it feel so much better. You probably do this already, but getting aware of the process can make it all feel more meaningful.
love, #krishna
