Saturday, April 29, 2017 We are getting zero breaks from the Mercury/Uranus interplay in Aries this weekend. Yesterday, Mercury met the God of Lightning by conjunction for a second time. As the two hold in tight orb (as Mercury is moving RIDICULOUSLY slow) the Moon in Gemini will pass by them by sextile just after midday (1:29-2:14 PM EDT). This is good because it is by sextile. However, it can be quite emotionally affective because we are under a Gemini ruled Moon. Many may feel there is too much information coming in too quickly and its hard to keep up. Some may feel frazzled. Others manic or over-stimulated. However, others still could be flourishing in this. I feel this is the most unsettling to folks who have heavy water in their chart. Your mileage may vary on that. But, electric energy such as this has a tendency to scatter in Water whereas Fire can put it to use and Earth can ground it out. With heavy Air, the mental activity uptick is probably a welcomed thing. But, for our mo...

Wednesday, April 26, 2017 This morning at 8:17 AM, our New Moon in Taurus blossoms. Ah, the many things I could recount in regard to what I love about this season and the sign of Earth Venus. For one thing, it is time to turn that empty patch of dirt outside into a living, blossoming bounty. Yes. It is certainly time to plant gardens and dip into the many Earthly blessings. I feel the prime time for this is while Venus still resides in Pisces. We only have a short window for that as Venus enters Aries or Friday morning. Other great opportunities lie under the Sun in Taurus and Moon in Cancer which begins on the night of the 29 th . I just prefer Venus in a water sign, personally, yet we have to work with what we have, right? The sign of Taurus relates the Tarot card The Heirophant. Reliable. Stands on a solid set of well formed values. Steadfast. Certain and unwavering. With that, that makes the New Moon good for setting new standards or norms or putting declaration and intention towar...

Monday, April 24, 2017 Hopefully many took the opportunity to rest and restore this weekend. Now, with the beginning of the work week upon us, we may feel (at least temporarily) that our feet are once again a little more solidly underneath us. We are ready to venture forth and engage in the outside world with Moon in Aries. Plus, this morning, Mercury in Aries was steadied a little bit himself with a trine to Saturn at 4:16 AM. This indicates an inward affair of employing the information we've learned thus far and incorporating into our plans to move forward. The Moon strongly wanes in her balsamic phase now. So before we start anew under the New Moon in Taurus, this lunar phase offers us a chance to put a few last pieces of information together to wrap up what we were doing in the last cycle. There is a bit of stability and personal rectification that can happen here. Feelings of resolve, assured direction and absolution. It is a day of adulting. Yet, that boat is about to be roc...

Saturday, April 22, 2017 This morning is fairly relaxed and leisurely as the Moon in Pisces leaves her sextile with her buddy, the Sun in Taurus. The only major aspect, really, that we are looking at in the “meat” of the day is a conjunction from the Moon to Neptune at 3:59 PM. It doesn't look like an overly productive day. It's more leisurely and relaxed with opportunity to kind of let things settle down a bit and catch up on some rest. It's dreamy and creative. On the low end, it could be swamping emotionally depending on what is going on specifically in your life. But, the good news is the Moon continues to wane so emotionality continues to get less severe in that regard. This is a great day for taking in a movie, napping or heading to a music venue. Some may even prefer to just hole up in blessed quiet alone time and escape the louder callings of the productive world. Taking it easy pays off as the night moves forward the Moon sextiles Pluto at 2:21 AM offering stron...

Wednesday, April 19, 2017 We begin today under the call for a final purge brought forth by the Last Quarter Moon at 5:58 PM. This Quarter is discussed in a little more depth in yesterday's write up. From here, the Moon is Void until entering Aquarius at 6:53 AM. In looking at the rest of the week unfold, I realized that by the weekend much of our sky will have changed. First, the Sun kicks off the change with his movement into Taurus at 5:28 PM today. Mercury Rx greets the Sun by conjunction but falls back into Aries tomorrow at 1:38 PM. Pluto stations retrograde at 3:41 AM tomorrow. Venus makes her final square from Pisces to Saturn Rx in Sagittarius on Friday morning just after Mars shifts from Taurus to Gemini about an hour earlier. To me, those seem to be fairly astute changes. Mars in Gemini is certainly not Mars in Taurus. Venus leaving the crunch with Saturn and Chiron is a relief. Mercury Rx in Taurus is certainly not Mercury Rx in Aries. A Venus ruled Sun is of course not...

Monday, April 17, 2017 From what I can see looking at the next few days, it appears like an exercise in which we can assess both how we use our power and how we conduct ourselves in general by harsh and more gentle ways. It's as if the Capricorn Moon comes in with an evaluative agenda. The Moon touches on every other planet in the sky by major aspect and, with her current ruler retrograde, we are called to kind of oversee production and then deliver an assessment to ourselves just like most receive routine evaluations at their own job. This is where you do well. This is where you need to tweak things a little bit. Stuff like that. So, let's have a look. We begin this morning with the Sun in trine to Saturn Rx in Sagittarius (8:44 AM). This is where our inner “boss” begins to oversee general operations. Our initiating and forward moving Sun is prone to be self-accountable under this trine which means there really isn't someone standing over our shoulders monitoring/evaluati...

Saturday, April 15, 2017 I've a couple of pieces of good news for this weekend. First, Venus turned direct in Pisces today at 6:16 AM. Next, as the Sun moves away from his conjunction with Uranus, he stabilizes (and likely meets with consequence for impulsiveness and thoughtless re-activeness) by way of a trine with Saturn in Sagittarius (8:44 AM on Monday). Also, Venus is on her way toward a sextile with Mars in Taurus on Sunday night. That's nice smooth energy that gently moves forward but not in a forceful or brutish way. But, let's start with today. As mentioned, Venus turns direct first thing this morning under the Moon in Sagittarius. Meanwhile, the Moon herself meets Neptune by square at 9:16 AM. This is a sluggish and emotive type of energy that may have us moving more slowly than usual. Many will sleep in and attempt to rest up after the uptick in erratic physical energy that came from Sun/Uranus. Others will prefer alone time or will be at least prone to turn the...

Wednesday, April 12, 2017 This morning the Moon in Scorpio moves away from her opposition with Mercury Rx in Taurus and uses most of the day to wax into a watery trine with Neptune (8:49 PM). This can feel emotive, lethargic or somewhat lax in regard to engaging in physical activity. It is more dreamy and creative than productive for the most part. With this, we could have feelings of remorse or regret. However, we are given opportunity to purge and release more negative emotions here. Allowing the clouded waters to run through and out of our systems so that cleaner and gentler waters can replenish us. In other words, don't fight tears if they come. Allow them to flow out of you and cleanse your emotional system. This is also a day of high intuition/empathy. Given Mercury's current retrograde status, it is a good idea to assess non-verbal communications as much as the spoken words. The indication is to go full lean into the concept of flow. In that, follow the day where it bec...
