Venus. She's saturating our world right now. You may not realize it. You may not feel it fully or do but don't recognize what it is. In the Astrology world, we have spent a whole lot of time this summer talking about Mars. And eclipses. Masculine and direct energies for the most part. You can have a passive personality type. You can be passive in your Mars exertions. If you are, the chance that Sun or Mars are influenced by Venus is fairly high. By house. By aspect. By sign. Something. Or Neptune. Or water of some kind. Venus was on my mind strongly yesterday morning. As it should be. The Moon in Taurus, Sun and Mercury in Libra. Much of Thursday answered to Venus. As will Friday (9/28). Thing about it being, not only does Venus rule these signs and would be relevant within this set up on any given day; however, in this mix up in our current sky she is also preparing to station retrograde on October 5 in the sign of Scorpio. whispergraphics on deviant art "Descent...

Aries is wild. Feral. A full moon in the sign, though absolutely glorious to look at, is particularly so. Visceral desire brimming at the surface. An absolute bursting forth of pure initiating from the gut and on instinct energy. A blaze of glory that only comes in Libra season. So, you know it's also going to be graceful and pretty. An indication that Autumn has arrived in the Northern Hemisphere as we kiss our hot “in the Sun” months goodbye while giving equal time to night and day for a bit. I'm not sorry. This is my favorite time of year. Our Full Moon tomorrow, though, does come in under some distress. Not that we are not accustomed to that. But, this is a bit different though connected to what we have dealt with over the summer. Venus now progresses further into her retrograde shadow. This is particularly relevant now that the Sun is in Libra as Venus holds rulership over that sign. Venus' square with Mars and the nodal axis and her opposition with Uranus are all now...

Overview It seems to me that the majority of this week is occupied with brain activity. Mars in Air coming in for a third square to his current ruler, Uranus in Taurus, is indicative of busy brain as well as physical activity (9/18). It could even denote some weird weather. Mercury will also find the Sun by conjunction in Virgo (9/20) which is also a “weathery” nod. Then, when the Sun enters the Air sign of Libra he will also trine Mars keeping the brain and mouth engaged and active (9/23). There are hiccups, of course. Mercury will also oppose Chiron (9/22) and square Saturn (9/23) once he enters Libra. The Sun is, of course, right behind him by the end of the week ready to follow him through these aspects. Virgo season comes to a close on 9/22 as the Sun enters Libra under a Pisces Moon. The Sun in Libra will oppose Chiron on 9/23 leading up to our Full Moon in Aries on 9/24. The Full Moon is certainly in orb (falling at 2 degrees) of a Cardinal t-square with Saturn in Capricorn. Bu...

This New Moon comes in at precisely 17 degrees. Packing precision being a VERY Virgo thing to do. The Sabian Symbol for that degree reads: A Volcanic Eruption. Which doesn't sound very helpful or Virgo at all. Virgins and Volcanoes historically do not mix well. However, this is an Earth sign and with Uranus still in Taurus (as Venus waxes in for her first of 3 oppositions), the Earth's topography will continue to change. Volcanoes notorious instigators of this. There is a bursting of energies with that. The “blow” seemingly to happen suddenly has been brewing beneath the surface for some time, however. There has been a slow build to the point where we find ourselves now. But, as this Moon phase progresses the evolution of change within our landscape will slowly begin to take place. We have quite a collection of bodies in the sign of Virgo. The Sun and Moon of course both in orb of Jupiter, Neptune and Pluto. But, the Queen of the Witches has also arrived to the sign of the natu...

Wednesday, September 5, 2018 This morning, the Sun, Moon and Neptune are all linked together. The sextile from the Moon in Cancer to the Sun in Virgo officially waxes in at 5:32 AM. The Sun is waxing into opposition with Neptune which is due to become exact on 9/7. However, the Moon will trine Neptune at about 9:30 AM. She will move forward to trine Jupiter in Scorpio at 1:56 PM. This all happens between 12 and 17 degrees of their respective signs. Meaning, we have a brief kite lit during this passage that mixes a water trine with Earth. The opposite of the Earth trine tipped by a Water point that will experience when Mercury enters Virgo later today. A second kite (Water trine tipped in Earth) is lit up briefly as the Moon opposes Pluto at 19 degrees Cap (3:42 PM). If you have planets between 12 and 19 degrees of Earth, you have direct access to this kite. There are several different ways you can use this. But, let me see if I can boil it down to an essence for you. The Sun, Moon, Pl...

Monday, September 3, 2018 The Moon is waning in Gemini and still active this morning (having just passed a square with Neptune at 6:42 AM EDT) as her current ruler, Mercury in Leo, meets Venus in Libra by sextile. Part of the relevance of this sextile is that it occurs just as Venus has entered her retrograde shadow and JUST after Mercury has exited his own. Meaning, we know a little bit about who we are and have a more firm grasp on how it is we wish to express that. But, the heart may change in regard to what we appreciate and how as we move forward. That being said, this is generally a very light and congenial aspect in which we are encouraged to say something supportive, kind and maybe veer away from criticisms in our actions with others. One of those...if you cannot say anything nice then shut your trap, kinda deals. On a low end, this aspect can seek constant validation from others when they are not firmly rooted in an accepting sense of self. But, really...it's best used f...
