With Jupiter moving through your tenth house of career and expanding your professional opportunities, much of the astrology of 2019 has you focused on the external.

Well-supported and optimistic, this full moon helps you to get some clarity on something deeper you’ve been working through over the past few months. Perhaps something that felt heavy now feels a little lighter. Any time that you spend checking in on yourself is time-well spent. Give yourself your own care!
