Waxing Water Goat Moon
This is a funny phase. It feels like the world is really ramping up and yet the action of the moon is one of slowing things down. This pivot on a peak would break the ankle of any other animal, but not our friend the goat. See, a ram can handle sharp summits, and can be perfectly content sucking salt! Just be sure to keep it moving. Goats get grumpy when they're stuck solo.
As for the poetry of the moment, this is the time to slow down and return to the herd. Get off that cliff and connect with your clan. Alone, you can go fast, but you'll need your team to go far. If you intend to make it through the long haul to Fall, you'd better gather the kids and link back with your pack.
The double Goat Moon has only just begun. This pushes Autumn back till the end of August. The last leap year we had was back with Rabbit year. We won't see another one until the Double Horse in Monkey. If this stuff doesn't make any sense to you - GOOD! This is ancient zodiac science, it's going to take a while to seep in. So, stay subscribed... one day it might click!
