Nov 27 Gemini-Sagittarius Full Beaver Moon!

Nov 27 Gemini-Sagittarius Full Beaver Moon!

Monday Nov 27 at 1:16 AM Pacific at 4 Gemini-Sagittarius 51!

Saturn at ZERO Pisces, the last sign of the zodiac, holds the prime wisdom position, strengthens the whole chart, brings breakthroughs! Blessings and safe travels! With deep gratitude for your dear Care and LOVE always.


.

Sagittarius rules horses and big dogs! But their Full Moon is called the Beaver Moon! Beavers are nocturnal hard workers, start living in their underwater nests this time of year and cold weather causes their pelts to be thick and luxurious! In these times of climate shifts, droughts, they are now known to be a KEYSTONE species, a unique organism that supports the entire biological community! If they are gone, the habitat is gone. MORE!  Beaver Medicine Wonderful diagram at East Multnomah Soil & Water Conservation District by artist Jon Wagner

The next two Full Moons and the first Lunar Event, New Moon of 2024, are linked with Mercury square Neptune!

Nov 27‘s Gemini-Sagittarius Full Moon is with Mercury in Sagittarius square Neptune the first time. The second square of the Two Sign Sagittarius-Capricorn Mercury Retrograde is with Dec 26‘s day after Christmas Cancer-Capricorn Full Moon! The final square of the 3 part Mercury Rx cycle is Jan 8, 2024 three days before the Jan 11 New Moon, the first lunar event of 2024!

Mercury is in Sagittarius now, enters Capricorn Dec 1. At the full Moon time, Mercury and Neptune are exactly square, both at 24° of their signs. Mercury often tinkers with trivial bits of information, but in Sagittarius the sign opposite Gemini (where our Moon is), the tendency leans to profound! Sag is always looking for perspective, the long view, where we’re going and why? It’s not just the Mercurial facts, but what they mean together. Sag tends to emphasize, make it bigger than life! They like to play and tell stories! Neptune, especially in its own sign Pisces, loves a wild yarn, and can sometimes outdo the mystery of it all, can make it soulful and profound, bring you to tears, to complete silence as the story takes you in. Pisces wants saviors, while Sag brings adventurous heroes. Each has a way with what is important, even in fun or spirituality, sometimes with ambiguity that makes you think for days!

Neptune is noted for confusion, the mystical, incomprehensible. Mercury in Sagittarius will help you cleverly escape or take you home when all was thought to be lost. One way or the other, your mind is expanded, with new opinions or ways of thinking, or not thinking at all if you are meditating! Being ‘confused’ allows all sorts of options to be explored as you seek answers. It’s actually a profound state of mind. It teaches us to let go, give up fear of the unknown, accept what doesn’t make sense, consider amazing possibilities, develop Faith and Hope, Trust when you don’t know your next step. Your heart opens.

This holds strong importance for our Full Moon, since Mother Moon is in Gemini, Mercury’s first sign. She has just squared Saturn in Pisces, Pisces being Neptune’s Sign! Imagination, worries, consequences, longed for accomplishments come to be. Telling the stories of the gathering of clues, the templates of progress, the supreme focus of attention step by step, sharing the immense data back accumulated are all part of the enormous success that may have taken many years. Moon’s hoarding instinct is part of her talent, her photographic memory, can return to the source, update, and Gemini weaves the new bits into strong blankets of knowledge easily accessed, quick to be followed. Suddenly so much makes sense!

This foundation gives Sagittarius the command, the skilled delivery of boundless information. Each set begets the next. It is a living momentum that creates itself as it goes! Sun has just crossed Mars and is super propelled, into greater leadership, excited and exonerated as the revelations pour forth! Mars is first to see, prone to instant action! The joy of discovery wakes us up, being on new ground is a hope and a healing! First time experimenting may need a little adjusting, but we can see the burst of light in every step and handshake! The strides are getting longer, covering more ground in less time!

In the old astrological words, Gemini is Mind and Sagittarius is the Path, the purpose, the meaning of those words. We find that Gemini is motivated by the purpose, and the purpose is based on the strength and quality of the data furnished by Gemini. Gemini is the more local neighborhood, siblings connections while Sagittarius is the Traveler, Professor, Philosopher/Religious Guide who takes us out into the world, connects entire arenas, shows us there is more, much more! Gemini teaches us how to learn. Sag teaches us how to think. The quality of the connections we make are essential to growth. Given the right input by Gemini, Sagittarius becomes the sign of Abundance!

All three, Moon, Mars and Sun, have passed by Saturn TSquare at midpoint between them! Saturn in Pisces has been extracting all he can from the Dreamtime, focusing it, establishing its authenticity, reality, making it accessible to our daily work and spiritual work as well. I see Saturn as harvesting the insights and psychic ability of Pisces, the ability to understand something that was unknown, develop a personal form of Spirituality that brings you to your knees and exhilarates your Soul! He is now giving equal distribution of Pisces wisdoms to both sides of the Lunar axis!

At the earth level we have seen swarms of floods and powerful water events. I want to see ways for Saturn to harvest water significantly, to help take care of our oceans, reduce plastic and poisonous pollution, to harvest safely without harming other fish, dolphins and whales, to harvest cleanly and more abundantly. See more!

Saturn has challenged Moon in Gemini to see the greater elements of what he finds, the significance as Pisces would. Gemini’s repertoire is more useful than ever as more fractions are united and brought to bear. Saturn is shaving off some of Sun in Sagittarius’s devil-may-care way of presenting and calling him to add the importance of timeliness. Exaggerations, while fun and entertaining, may blur the mark. Some thoughts may be followed up with a little science that brings us to how soon can we do what?! Saturn in Pisces may have an even longer vision than Jupiter! What?! Yes! Pisces is a Soul sign, Saturn has an Elder/Mentor quality that makes him quite credible. He has a passion for important work and the pride of getting it done. The three plus Saturn in T Square with them, may be the time to have a gathering after ThanksGiving and plan for 2024’s possibilities! Mars may have been in bad temper while Saturn held him back asking Mars to tread more carefully, look before he leaps, but Mars will be happy starting productive new projects managed by a determined expert! Saturn recognizes his good intentions and courage to face difficulties squarely. They can get it done.

To add a little spice to the mixture, Mercury trined Chiron in Aries the 20th, and yesterday trined the North Node in Aries. Time to back to basics and new beginnings! He wants to spread the word of new healing and business techniques as well as how to start better relationships with really independent personalities, leaders spearheading new projects! The North Node is kicking the odds, leaving old ways behind, choosing new heroes! Mercury in Sag has fun traveling to new places in life. The dimensions shift right in front of your eyes!

Jupiter will be consulted soon as Moon will be semi sextile him in just hours; Sun will inconjunct in two days, already feeling their connection too. Jupiter is sitting in Taurus, the sign of patience and perseverance. Jupiter is a teacher and perspective seeker, looking for the best ways to take care of Mama Earth and her people. Mother Moon is in special harmony with that, looking for safe sustainable living, for her family, children and neighbors. She wants meaningful information. Sun in Sagittarius wants to know where. Jupiter is Sagittarius’s planet, so they have a strong rapport. He wants more than comfortable living, but where they can thrive and prosper in an area where the people are like minded, in strong community with each other, with top educational opportunities available.

Jupiter in Taurus is still retrograde, but will be coming forward to conjunct Uranus April 20, 2024! WOW! That will be some experience! Do be thinking on what you would like to see happen by then, be preparing for it even now. Allow your mind to sweep the environment, to expand what you aspire to. Jupiter will turn forward Dec 30. A lengthy one degree station will be Dec 6 through Jan 24, 2024. Those of you with chart factors at or very close to 5 and 6 degrees will be activated. In that time, some deeper principles will take root with you, securing a strong foundation, worthy of your continued care as they develop further. Jupiter is lucky for Earth, expands earth events, education, perspectives of long term value. Yes, we have seen huge earth events, some not seeming so lucky, but in the long term we will do better with these kinds of events as we plan ahead to use them rather than suffer destruction. One of the things we can do is manage our food production choices in context of coming weather. Another is to mitigate temperature changes. Jupiter rules heat!

Uranus is in the 3 outer planets higher consciousness sequence! Venus in her own second sign Libra has just inconjuncted Uranus in Taurus, Venus’s first sign! Taurus wants earthy beauty, while Libra is looking for people beauty and the blessing of their connections. Libra has the ability to see intrinsic beauty, while Taurus is looking for organic values, land, quality food, ores and minerals, animals. Venus knows how to negotiate in Libra, deal with legalities. Uranus is looking for extensive networks whether an apartment building, a class action suit, or human rights. She has recently advised Uranus on the latest partnerships of significance, personal or political. Uranus rules electronics, flight. He advised her on the best gear on the market, about coming robotics.

Venus will be inconjunct Neptune next, Nov 30. After Mercury square Neptune, this will be more soothing. Venus in her own sign Libra may look at possible liability matters that came up. She knows what to do, or can help you find good solutions with people in the know. Doubts may have come up. Venus has some ideas to help balance your fears. Take a look at her ideas. She may lead you off in an unexpected direction that gives perspectives that are worth the exploration.

Pluto is back in Capricorn until Jan 20, 2024. See more about this period of the 246 year Capricorn-Aquarius transition. There is great strength in hard won, tried and true knowledge. On that foundation Aquarian r/evolution makes more useful solid advances, securely implemented, maintained by the timeless high standards Capricorn has stood for. Capricorn is the sign of time and knows instinctively when a shift is in progress. Ruling borders and boundaries, he is a Gateway specialist! He is a mentor, always guiding and guarding the newbies. Aquarius is at the cutting edge, on totally new ground and can use all the help he can get. Many Aquarians have their Mercurys in Capricorn and many Capricorns have their Mercurys in Aquarius! They live this transition all their lives. They will be there for us. While the rest of us are scrambling, it’s business as usual for them.

___________________

The three outmost higher consciousness planets, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, are still in their sextiles/trine pattern. Many events are making world headlines. They are taking it to the next level, meaning these are considered higher consciousness planets! This combination of the three outmost planets aspecting each other this way is quite rare and will continue through 2028.

They are sextiling – opportunities – each other and Uranus in Taurus has moved into trine with Pluto while Pluto is retrograde back in fellow earth sign Capricorn. Jupiter is closer to his conjunction with Uranus, and many are already sensing the amazing possibilities. But for now, Jupiter is in station about to retrograde. They will be exact April 2024. The threesome is holding in earth and water signs until Pluto makes his shift back into Aquarius again Jan 2024. That will leave Uranus and Neptune keeping the dream electric and lively! Neptune evolves just like all the planets do. With Uranus, even Neptune develops a new level of awareness. At first it may seem a bit prickly, but as he gets used to it, it’s more sparkly! In fact, it’s all quite intriguing.

When she first heard about these three together, a friend said OMG, that sounds destabilizing and slightly terrifying! And it can be, depending on your point of view and climate changes. Sometimes destabilizing can be a chosen technique, done on purpose in a good way, like the demolition of an old dangerous building. At the same time space is made to accommodate opening the good gates of the future, an amazing rebuild, making a park, a hospital, library, low income senior housing. With climate disasters, entire areas are devastated. Yet even during anger and grief, there is the seeing of a significant, even profound, choice of rebirth of much better ways. In time, surprisingly, the whole experience brings gratitude. As Rumi says: “Earth turns to Gold in the hands of the Wise.” Here is our big chance to make it so!

Uranus sextile Neptune

Uranus has been within a 5° sextile with Neptune since July ’23, and will be for five months through Dec 16, 2023! Uranus is the last Air planet, the planet of the heavens, flight and electronics – the internet and networking. The Awakener has humanitarian inclinations and collective intent. There is maximum exchange of information, extraordinary invention, as genius is released planet wide! He changes, adds dimension to Neptune’s way of seeing and content of his visions! That Uranus is grounded in Taurus, he keeps the intentions sensible and steady. Things may not be so ‘loud.’ More gets done since undistracted energy is concentrated, applied right where needed, and doesn’t quit until completed.

Neptune, the most adaptable planet, quickly takes on the Uranian continuum of skills, adeptly commingles it with his own psychic seeing! He gives remarkable tips that bypass super logic and gets us there without explanation. Astonishing as always was and will be! There are leaps beyond our ken, but we arrive, suddenly transported, functioning in a way we didn’t know before, but is right as rain. It seems like a miracle, but is really normal. In the face of disasters, Neptune has unexpected resilience, shows the strength of the Soul. Healing knows no bounds.

At times we get lost in the glory and excitement of such transitions. We get enamored with the genius of it all. But Neptune reminds us it’s not just what we can do but the meaning of it all. We take a few still moments to honor our original inspiration, the commandments of our Soul, the depth of caring, need for change that started our pilgrimage.

After Dec 16, 2023 they again pick up their less than 5° sextile June 14, 2024 through Feb 13, 2025! This second set is eight months, making a total of 13 months! Neptune again leaves Uranus behind, entering ARIES Mar 30, 2025, never making the exact sextile while Neptune is in Pisces! Yet all that time, they are functioning together, progressively activating 19 through 28 degree factors in our charts! They are awakening us, establishing a foundation, setting the stage for the exact aspect sets to come.

Aug 28, 2025 they start their two year set of EXACT sextiles. It is the first of five aspects but in Gemini and Aries! See more!

With the outmost planets, this pattern of coming close then moving apart is normal. It gives time to get to know each other in context of the type of aspect and the signs they are in. The can see how to protect themselves if necessary, how to help each other as possible.

Uranus trine Pluto

Uranus trine Pluto are also in a pre exact aspects prelude period. Currently, since Uranus is sextile Neptune, and Neptune is sextile Pluto, Uranus is trine Pluto though technically not quite within the 5° or less zone. Since around the end of July, or earlier, Uranus and Pluto have been considering each other. Uranus slows to his stand still station Aug 28. Pluto is retrograding getting closer by degree with Uranus. They get closest Sep 10/11 then gradually part further. But once aware of each other, they can still watch…plus Neptune, between them, has his eye on both and they are both watching Neptune. It’s a bit intricate and it isn’t done yet.

There are two more close periods, seeding and getting used to the connection. They don’t make the first EXACT trine until July 17, 2026, while Pluto is in Aquarius, Uranus in Gemini! Like Uranus sextile Neptune, this too is a 5 time set of aspects and takes two years to complete on May 9, 2028.

While Neptune is midpoint between them he can act as a buffer. Pluto in Capricorn is set in some of his ways. Uranus is the planet of change and evolution while Capricorn is the guardian of the status quo, elders. Pluto doesn’t want anyone messing with his relationships, especially with money. But, they are nevertheless, trine, likely to find ways to work with each other. Uranus in Taurus is more sensible, but certainly not the same. His advocacy for individual’ rights includes money, but from the opposite side of the table. Pluto is corporate money, the ruler of Scorpio, OUR money. Taurus is MY money. It will take a little doing to bridge this difference. Both are strong and both can be stubborn. Since Neptune in Pisces is known for his empathy and understanding, his long bond with Pluto, he may lean a bit more to Pluto’s side – the fundraiser side.

Neptune sextile Pluto 82 years!

Neptune and Pluto know each other well. From 1900 through 2032, there is only one aspect made between Neptune and Pluto! It came within effective range in the midst of World War II during 1942. Neptune sextile Pluto has a profound and exotic history! Jamie Partridge refers to it as an ‘inter-generational’ planetary aspect lasting from 1950 to 2032! In those years there are 49 exact aspects over three to four generations! Both planets have changed signs multiple times in that period. At this part of their orbits they have been traveling at speeds that have allowed them to keep the sextile aspect for 82 years! Though their last exact sextile was June 9, 1986, they have stayed in sextile, sometimes closer, sometimes further apart, until now! July 24 to Sep 15, 2026 they start exact aspects again! They make 13 additional exact aspects in this period completing the 82 years! Chart factors you have in or very close to those degrees will tap you into this sequence.

As planets travel for long times together, they become more like each other. Neptune and Pluto are both water planets (Pisces and Scorpio) and both have to do with transformation. Pluto transforms our bodies from the Kundalini up. Neptune transforms our Spirit. Pluto goes deep to cure the cause. Neptune pulls us to believe in the unseeable, our dreams. Neptune calls Pluto to compassion. Pluto says face the facts. There is the physical doctor and if the patient doesn’t believe, they can die no matter how great the Dr is. If there is no great Dr, the patient may die no matter what he believes. Truly, we need these two to work together. We/they, have been getting better at it!

This connection is more significant now because March 23, 2023 Pluto first entered Aquarius, a 246 year event! Now through 2044, 21 years, there will be significant world changes. ’26 to ’32 the remaining 13 exact sextiles with Neptune happen while Neptune is in Aries, Pluto in Aquarius. Please continue to strengthen our Aquarian and Uranian people, those factors in your own charts!

You can see the potency of this three outer planet grouping. The harmony of these planets draws us past our daily experience. We are encountering great principles working together. Uranus is humanitarian, the Awakener. Neptune is the dreamer of the vastitudes, spiritual Master. Pluto awakens the Kundalini, the fire at the base of the spine, burns away the dross, aligns the chakras and we are ON! When Pluto is in Aquarius, Uranus’s sign, the two are combined as one, unimaginable electric life force! Immense possibilities. See more about the approaching April 2024 Jupiter conjunct Uranus! This aspect alone will jump the group a few light years ahead!

Dec 12 Sagittarius New Moon! Mercury in Station Retrograde 11:09 PM Pacific!

Monday Dec 12, 3:32 PM Pacific at 20 Sagittarius 40!

Spirited New Moon, Mercury RX in abundant Trine with Jupiter Taurus, Mars Abroad with Cures!

2023 Sagittarius New Moon Mercury Retrograde Matt Triplow Photo!

How Special! For Mother’s Day 2016, together as a family we drove two hours to Font’s Point in the Anza Borrego desert to shoot a family portrait under the Milkyway at about 2am. Matt says: This shot was comprised of 12, 30 second exposures stitched together to capture the whole arching galaxy. I had to run forwards and back to reposition the camera. Dedicated and beautiful work by Photographer Matt Triplow!

Dec 12‘s Sagittarius New Moon brings Mercury in Capricorn RETROGRADE at 11:09 PM Pacific! Mercury has been in STATION since Dec 9, and will be until 16, an 8 day period of astronomical ‘stand still,’ focus, steeping in Capricorn wisdom. This is while Pluto is Retrograde back in Capricorn, adjusting and finalizing the Capricorn foundation for its sign change back into Aquarius. This is important because Pluto will be in Aquarius for a 21 year period until 2044! Two Sign Sagittarius-Capricorn Mercury Retrograde! 

Mercury holds a powerful position in this chart! On the brink of Retrograde, he is in an approaching three-time Earth trine Jupiter in Taurus! The first trine was exactly Dec 7, next is the retrograde aspect on the 18th and third and last is Jan 19, 2024! What starts on Dec 7 has follow through blessings and consequences the second and third times. be conscious and make them good. Plan to update each time.

Mercury’s observations make sure the job is getting done in a timely fashion, calls on the experts and consultants to do the best, makes sure the structure is reliable in extreme conditions, hires professionals, gets maintenance training for steady functioning, checks out safe and sustainable options and best prices on materials. He secures the best housing for elders. Does the crucial and essential work. This is a great collaboration with Jupiter in Taurus.

In Taurus Jupiter is strong as a Bull, an oxen, a fabulous draft horse! They are good natured, steady, capable. Jupiter has faith and confidence that carries him through long term projects, to meaningful successes. Taurus is no quitter. Just don’t get in their way! Jupiter is well partnered with Taurus. Taurus is not afraid of hard work, is loyal and dedicated. Jupiter is a strong student and teacher looking for perspective and a useful broader truth. Taurus would rather stay home, but will take Jupiter on his back cross country, the tractor to the remote area needing checking on, or on the train overland far away. He sees through Jupiter’s big wide eyes and changes some of his opinions. Taurus has such patience and common sense that Jupiter can calm down, take the time it takes, and feel safe right where he stands. No need to run away. If the two of them together get too stubborn for words, it may take a powerful event to get them to shake it off, let go, consider other possibilities. Just show them how it is better, especially the consequences and losses if not taken advantage of. Be ready to prove your point. If Taurus looks at you sideways, you know you still have some work to do.

Jupiter in Taurus is still retrograde, but will be coming forward to conjunct Uranus April 20, 2024! WOW! That will be some experience! Do be thinking on what you would like to see happen by then, be preparing for it even now. Allow your mind to sweep the environment, to expand what you aspire to. Jupiter will turn forward Dec 30. A lengthy one degree station will be Dec 6 through Jan 24, 2024. Those of you with chart factors at or very close to 5 and 6 degrees will be activated. In that time, some deeper principles will take root with you, securing a strong foundation, worthy of your continued care as they develop further. Jupiter is lucky for Earth, expands earth events, education, perspectives of long term value. Yes, we have seen huge earth events, some not seeming so lucky, but in the long term we will do better with these kinds of events as we plan ahead to use them rather than suffer destruction. One of the things we can do is manage our food production choices in context of coming weather. Another is to mitigate temperature changes. Jupiter rules heat! See more: 2023-24 Aspects and other Sign Changes!

The New Moon will be in Sagittarius, the sign preceding Capricorn. Sag has the long distance visions, collects skills and thinking worldwide, is hopeful, seeing the diverse solutions to many issues encountered along their travel Path! Cultural and differing indigenous ways offer remarkable possibilities!

Mother Moon finds generous sharing, swaddling of babies, child rearing, tips for food, home care even when on the move, like refugees that must deal with weather and social integration. Father Sun leads to ones in charge that have warm hearts, want the best for all. As travelers, they sing, work along the way sometimes, absorb languages and customs, respect, when to leave immediately if necessary, learn to honor, give gratitude for gifts they can’t always pay for. For many, money ceases to be the medium of exchange. Profound bonds are formed.

Two factors add spice to this New Moon. Mars is also earlier in Sagittarius. He will want the latest in adventures! Things have changed since Covid! Less group tours, more family travel, nature tourism replacing more crowded places and activities. James Liang, chairman of Trip.com Group, says Asian travelers surveyed reported free cancellation, flexible presale bookings and insurance coverage were the most important factors when booking travel nowadays. Travelers are more ethical. EcoWatch says ‘Survey of Travelers Finds 76% Want More Sustainable Options!’

The New Moon has just passed the inconjunct with Uranus in Taurus. Uranus is the Aquarius planet, so has led Moon and Sun to wilder and hopefully greener pastures! While Taurus is down on the fertile planes, Uranus rules flight, weather predictions over broad areas. He sees changes coming, passes the info to Taurus and they brilliantly and steadfastly prepare. Some changes are so fortunate, some are devastating. That’s nature. The New Moon in Sagittarius is used to changes while traveling and is quite quickly adaptable. Seek cover, LOL!

Sagittarius makes the plans due to finances available, the elemental ethics of divine purpose important to live for. There may be great sacrifice, to achieve the chosen goals and locations. With careful attention and being with inspirational leaders, great abundance may bloom.

Capricorn, the alchemical Architect, builds strong foundations, bonds with Earth herself, along the supernatural earth lines of Sagittarius and the vortexes where they converge. Over time even the ley lines are shifting, which is becoming apparent as climate shifts happen. Certain ancient patterns (paternity, patron) are closing, opening in different formations. In the ‘old’ days, straight lines represented straightness, spirit travel and the dead. As Pluto, the planet of Revelation, moves into Aquarius, for the first time in 246 years, one by one these lines and places will become electric. We will feel them when we go cross country. As the Pyramids were great centers, universities of 100s, 1000s of years past were formed, great learning locations will now start forming in different ways and places. Aquarius can be ‘scientific enlightenment,’ versus spiritualistic. Check out this link for one person’s historical view of energy lines. Your ‘conclusions’ may simply be a beginning to new doors of perception.

There is rather a sense of containment, or restraint with this New Moon. 1) Mercury is still, in station, in conservative Capricorn, in a state of abiding responsibility, having a strong work ethic. He, at 8 Cap, will not make the exact sextile with Venus at 9 Scorpio since Mercury is retreating back from 8. Venus in Scorpio would be holding privacy on Mercury’s ideas anyway. Though Mars and the New Moon are in forthright Sagittarius, they are not linked as Mercury and Venus are.

2) The New Moon trines the Aries North Node, sextiles the Libra South Node. Independence is being called for to balance old make-everybody-happy ways of Libra. The Nodes are always generally retrograde and so is this one. They meet, they talk, but immediate big results may not happen there either. Jot down those ideas. It just may not be their time yet.

Moon’s Nodes? Part of the importance of the Node’s events, are the Libra-Aries axis is learning to be able to be independent, a leader, AND work together, each contributing their own strengths. Moon’s Nodes are considered to be somewhat karmic, to connect concepts of mistakes of the past/past lives with making amendments balanced by the opposite principles of the opposite sign, of current times. It is not always easy within ourselves, because the soul has its memories, and we, and others involved, have fears, angers and perversions, chronic behaviors that need to be faced and overcome. Do have patience with each other and yourself. Though you may be ready to make good, the other may not be able to receive your offering yet, and vice versa.

Mars, the Aries planet, trines Chiron in Aries. Chiron is retrograde, checking on past work though Mars is not letting him be still, Mars isn’t getting the action he hoped for. The New Moon has already passed Chiron, so the high point of the energy of their connection has passed. Aries/Mars, Mars in Sagittarius often don’t marry. Chiron the marriage planet is in Aries! So a partner has to let them be independent. It won’t be exactly a traditional relationship. It’s a little twitchy, itchy, can be yay or nay, provocative, adventurous or pushes away. Aries does love challenges. We’ll see.

Chiron is fast at 15 Aries. He’s leading the way and even while retrograde, he’s still faster than average! New, the latest, remedies are being delivered. He gives you the information on how to use them, but jot it down quickly and ask your questions because he’s already gone on to the next client/patient! He’s racing against time because so many critical things are happening. We must be well to contribute our part. He’s a rights fighter for a strong mind and body to represent our Spirit/Soul. Chiron is ready for Initiation, exploration, quick learning! He goes places no one has gone before. Courage is impressive. Stand tall! Independence, thinking for yourself, quickly tracking reality, is a strong plus!

3) Venus in Scorpio has passed her opposition with Jupiter in Taurus. She got some good ideas, but Mercury in retrograde Station isn’t going anywhere fast and neither is Jupiter in Taurus. Scorpio likes intensity, may have been disappointed by slow moving Jupiter in Taurus. Jupiter sometimes likes to sit with the Earth (Taurus), ponder the meanings, what may happen long term with various Paths. He knows a lot is at stake with the long term changes coming. Taurus was born to sit and observe. He is seeking well grounded peace. Not a fad follower, he wants sensible dependable durable solutions. Yet Jupiter always wants progress, so there is spending money for better gear versus installing the tried and true. How much will progressive new gear save, when will it pay for itself? Venus in Scorpio has moved along. Witnessing this dilemma, good with finances, she  may have already arrived at valuable solutions. All eyes are on her awaiting her findings. Charismatic Venus in Scorpio may have been secretly gathering funding sources along the way, a blessing coming! There may be matters of protection and security she has arranged as well. Love life may be on the waiting list.

Saturn has now finished his station, turned forward at 1 Pisces. He retrograded all the way back to the beginning of Pisces. Saturn is reviewing the very foundation of Pisces to be sure Pisces is weathering the storms, able to stand true to his karmic and dharmic intentions. Saturn knows how to help when there are disenchantments, remediation needed after disasters. He knows how to walk you back to the organic bedrock of the Soul and connect you with others who are dedicated and will shelter you when you need it. Saturn has had a few tough times of his own. He has learned his building skills by experience and is efficient, often wise. Pisces enjoys wandering, but there are times we need him to be present and realistically leading our Spirits. Saturn reminds him of his priorities. Pisces has lived the aeons, but there are timely concerns as significant changes like Pluto into Aquarius happen.

I see Saturn as harnessing the insights and psychic ability of Pisces, the ability to understand something that was unknown, develop a personal form of Spirituality that brings you to your knees and exhilarates your Soul!  At the earth level we have seen swarms of floods and powerful water events. I want to see ways for Saturn to harvest water significantly, to help take care of our oceans, reduce plastic and poisonous pollution, to harvest safely without harming other fish, dolphins and whales, to harvest cleanly and more abundantly. See more!

___________________

The three outmost planets, the higher consciousness planets Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, are still in their sextiles/trine pattern. Many events are making world headlines. This combination of the three outmost planets aspecting each other this way is quite rare and will continue through 2028.

They are in sextile links chain – opportunities – with each other. Uranus is retrograde in Taurus while Pluto is retrograde back in fellow earth sign Capricorn. Jupiter is closer to his conjunction with Uranus April 20, and many are already sensing the amazing possibilities. But for now, Jupiter is finishing retrograde, will Direct Dec 30. The threesome is holding in earth and water signs until Pluto makes his shift back into Aquarius again Jan 20 2024. That will leave Uranus and Neptune keeping the dream electric and lively! Neptune evolves just like all the planets do. With Uranus, even Neptune develops a new level of awareness. At first Uranus may seem a bit prickly, but as Neptune gets used to it, it’s more sparkly! In fact, it’s all quite intriguing.

When she first heard about these three together, a friend said OMG, that sounds destabilizing and slightly terrifying! And it can be, depending on your point of view and climate changes. Sometimes destabilizing can be a chosen technique, done on purpose in a good way, like the demolition of an old dangerous building. At the same time space is made to accommodate opening the good gates of the future, an amazing rebuild, making a park, a hospital, library, low income senior housing. With climate disasters, entire areas are devastated. Yet even during anger and grief, there is the seeing of a significant, even profound, choice of rebirth of much better ways. In time, surprisingly, the whole experience brings gratitude. As Rumi says: “Earth turns to Gold in the hands of the Wise.” Here is our big chance to make it so!

Uranus sextile Neptune

Uranus has been within a 5° sextile with Neptune since July ’23, and will be for five months through Dec 16, 2023! Uranus is the last Air planet, the planet of the heavens, flight and electronics – the internet and networking. The Awakener has humanitarian inclinations and collective intent. There is maximum exchange of information, extraordinary invention, as genius is released planet wide! He changes, adds dimension to Neptune’s way of seeing and content of his visions! That Uranus is grounded in Taurus, he keeps the intentions sensible and steady. Things may not be so ‘loud.’ More gets done since undistracted energy is concentrated, applied right where needed, and doesn’t quit until completed.

Neptune, the most adaptable planet, quickly takes on the Uranian continuum of skills, adeptly commingles it with his own psychic seeing! He gives remarkable tips that bypass super logic and gets us there without explanation. Astonishing as always was and will be! There are leaps beyond our ken, but we arrive, suddenly transported, functioning in a way we didn’t know before, but is right as rain. It seems like a miracle, but is really normal. In the face of disasters, Neptune has unexpected resilience, shows the strength of the Soul. Healing knows no bounds.

At times we get lost in the glory and excitement of such transitions. We get enamored with the genius of it all. But Neptune reminds us it’s not just what we can do but the meaning of it all. We take a few still moments to honor our original inspiration, the commandments of our Soul, the depth of caring, need for change that started our pilgrimage.

After Dec 16, 2023 they again pick up their less than 5° sextile June 14, 2024 through Feb 13, 2025! This second set is eight months, making a total of 13 months! Neptune again leaves Uranus behind, entering ARIES Mar 30, 2025, never making the exact sextile while Neptune is in Pisces! Yet all that time, they are functioning together, progressively activating 19 through 28 degree factors in our charts! They are awakening us, establishing a foundation, setting the stage for the exact aspect sets to come.

Aug 28, 2025 they start their two year set of EXACT sextiles. It is the first of five aspects but in Gemini and Aries! See more!

With the outmost planets, this pattern of coming close then moving apart is normal. It gives time to get to know each other in context of the type of aspect and the signs they are in. The can see how to protect themselves if necessary, how to help each other as possible.

Uranus trine Pluto

Uranus trine Pluto are also in a pre exact aspects prelude period. Currently, since Uranus is sextile Neptune, and Neptune is sextile Pluto, Uranus is trine Pluto though technically not quite within the 5° or less zone. Since around the end of July, or earlier, Uranus and Pluto have been considering each other. Uranus slowed to his stand still station Aug 28. Pluto is retrograding getting closer by degree with Uranus. They got closest Sep 10/11 then gradually part further. But once aware of each other, they can still watch…plus Neptune, between them, has his eye on both and they are both watching Neptune. It’s a bit intricate and it isn’t done yet.

There are two more close periods, seeding and getting used to the connection. They don’t make the first EXACT trine until July 17, 2026, while Pluto is in Aquarius, Uranus in Gemini! Like Uranus sextile Neptune, this too is a 5 time set of aspects and takes two years to complete on May 9, 2028.

While Neptune is midpoint between them he can act as a buffer. Pluto in Capricorn is set in some of his ways. Uranus is the planet of change and evolution while Capricorn is the guardian of the status quo, elders. Pluto doesn’t want anyone messing with his relationships, especially with money. But, they are nevertheless, trine, likely to find ways to work with each other. Uranus in Taurus is more sensible, but certainly not the same. His advocacy for individual’ rights includes money, but from the opposite side of the table. Pluto is corporate money, the ruler of Scorpio, OUR money. Taurus is MY money. It will take a little doing to bridge this difference. Both are strong and both can be stubborn. Since Neptune in Pisces is known for his empathy and understanding, his long bond with Pluto, he may lean a bit more to Pluto’s side – the fundraiser side.

Neptune sextile Pluto 82 years!

Neptune and Pluto know each other well. From 1900 through 2032, there is only one aspect made between Neptune and Pluto! It came within effective range in the midst of World War II during 1942. Neptune sextile Pluto has a profound and exotic history! Jamie Partridge refers to it as an ‘inter-generational’ planetary aspect lasting from 1950 to 2032! In those years there are 49 exact aspects over three to four generations! Both planets have changed signs multiple times in that period. At this part of their orbits they have been traveling at speeds that have allowed them to keep the sextile aspect for 82 years! Though their last exact sextile was June 9, 1986, they have stayed in sextile, sometimes closer, sometimes further apart, until now! July 24 to Sep 15, 2026 they start exact aspects again! They make 13 additional exact aspects in this period completing the 82 years! Chart factors you have in or very close to those degrees will tap you into this sequence.

As planets travel for long times together, they become more like each other. Neptune and Pluto are both water planets (Pisces and Scorpio) and both have to do with transformation. Pluto transforms our bodies from the Kundalini up. Neptune transforms our Spirit. Pluto goes deep to cure the cause. Neptune pulls us to believe in the unseeable, our dreams. Neptune calls Pluto to compassion. Pluto says face the facts. There is the physical doctor and if the patient doesn’t believe, they can die no matter how great the Dr is. If there is no great Dr, the patient may die no matter what he believes. Truly, we need these two to work together. We/they, have been getting better at it!

This connection is more significant now because March 23, 2023 Pluto first entered Aquarius, a 246 year event! Now through 2044, 21 years, there will be significant world changes. ’26 to ’32 the remaining 13 exact sextiles with Neptune happen while Neptune is in Aries, Pluto in Aquarius. Please continue to strengthen our Aquarian and Uranian people, those factors in your own charts!

You can see the potency of this three outer planet grouping. The harmony of these planets draws us past our daily experience. We are encountering great principles working together. Uranus is humanitarian, the Awakener. Neptune is the dreamer of the vastitudes, spiritual Master. Pluto awakens the Kundalini, the fire at the base of the spine, burns away the dross, aligns the chakras and we are ON! When Pluto is in Aquarius, Uranus’s sign, the two are combined as one, unimaginable electric life force! Immense possibilities. See more about the approaching April 2024 Jupiter conjunct Uranus! This aspect alone will jump the group a few light years ahead!

Sep 29 is the Glorious Full Harvest Moon spanning Aries-Libra!

Friday Sep 29 at 2:58 AM Pacific at 6 Aries-Libra 00!

Freedom, Change and Golden Beauty are leading the way at this fine time!

2023 Aries-Libra Full Harvest Moon Venus Leo!

A fiery Aries Full Harvest Moon and luxurious Venus in Leo! Take a front seat and take your time in the Moonlight contemplating the magnificent beauty of the Universe! The Planets are engaging higher consciousness. See this amazing image at Word Wool – 35 Mystical Poems!

This beautiful Harvest Moon spans Aries-Libra and is on the final day of the Venus-Mercury double retrograde cycle! All done, and a new beginning at the same time! Congratulations and onward! Aries is ready to turn a new leaf and Libra to make new connections like never before! Aries knows how to make alliances that support rather than dilute or distract his efforts. The Aries Moon will start us well informed, strong and fresh! Libra is instinctive about introducing excellent new contributors into the ranks!

Three inner planets are aspecting Uranus sequentially from Leo, Virgo and Libra!

1)  Venus in Leo is same degree square Uranus in Taurus. Though very different, there is also a strong tie since Venus is Taurus’s planet! Recent dramatic shocking earth events, Maui, Hurricanes, Quakes, have caused massive permanent loss of shelter, loved ones. With Venus trine the Moon’s North Node in Aries, there is a karmic element. We each face a part of ourselves that stands alone, can happen in a moment. Despite major losses, Venus in Leo is ever kind and generous, offers what she has. Besides her jacket, she is there to offer a warm and bright heart, even a smile. We are all helping each other as we can.

At the local level, Venus may have some expensive ideas for beautification. Taurus says keep it simple and is ever mindful of keeping money, LOL! But knowing, Venus in Leo, she may bring her own backers! They love her! Be prepared for a new project that may take a little persuading. If you are lucky, Uranus will have some genius ideas that will make it all work neatly. Listen carefully, think it over, meet again… Give it a chance.

2)  Mercury in Virgo trines Uranus. Clever Mercury offers every caring detail of help possible. He has stood at the side of first responders, stays with us, holds our hand calling our name to stay with us through the pain. Sees that we have food and water. Makes connections with our family and friends for us and contacts helpful organizations. He even helps find our pets and that they get care too. He gets us to shelter, gives us directions for when we get home. Mercury and Uranus are both planets of the Mind. They clear old mental debris, lighten the load. They are sharing practical information and making sure it gets well distributed to all who need it.

Mercury in his own sign Virgo, is also opposite Neptune, in his own sign Pisces! What a power combo! Each is  playing his very best hand. Virgo is famous for brass tacks critiques and analysis. Pisces permeates and is permeated by the entirety of anything, anytime, anywhere. There are no literal boundaries of Spirit and Soul other than being Spirit and Soul. Both are known for service in the trenches. Virgo works until they drop, cleaning you up, putting on bandages, making sure you eat the right food. Pisces has psychic compassion and will sing a song, give you a dream, that will heal your entire being.

3)  Mars in Libra is in strong inconjunct with Uranus. Mars in Libra is initiating new connections, different ways of balancing, pushing for peace in our sharing, confirming our goodness to each other. Quickly he mediates difficulties. Mars is ultra smart in Libra, as is Uranus in Taurus. Taurus and Libra are both Venus Signs. Uranus is dynamite at making changes while at the very same time, Taurus is grounding them right from the beginning! Libra is looking for harmony, fairness and justice every moment. Inconjunct indicates there are some oblique informations received and sent to offset locations, from/to unexpected and unusual sources and destinations. They may lead us to further changes that make a surprising difference. Widen your parameters.

Mars is about to be at Moon’s South Node. The South is always directly opposite the North. The North Node is in Aries, Mars’ sign, so there is a harmony of getting things started, moving forward, on both sides. They are rooting out troubles from the past, using skills learned long ago, looking forward to new blessings with spirited companions! Having just passed opposition with Chiron, Mars has found some new quickie healing techniques too! That handshake was more than a formality. It carried some healing energy with it with no explanation! Kindness can be swift and more caring than you may ever know, even from an ‘enemy.’

Since Aug 13, Venus has been traveling 3 degrees or less sextile with Mars! They are still in cahoots but never make the exact aspect, so share but don’t 100% connect! Venus is also Libra’s planet, so is double connected with both Uranus and Mars too, just in different ways. With Mars in Libra, the connection emphasizes people things, person to person – celebrations, parties, working together on projects! The connections they made together with others has speeded up and enhanced their collaborations community wide. Venus has opened doors to see just what a difference beauty and an attractive Spirit can make. Mars has encouraged her to get it going soonest while people are excited by the new and latest venture! They may have considered a close romantic adventure of their own, but it will not likely be long term though it really looked like it would!

In the big picture, the spiritual playing field is being leveled. Compassion is becoming more equalized. The need for treating our earth more realistically is being demonstrated. By coming together, we are learning how to care for Mother Earth more wisely. It can be done well and quickly. Instead of simply living on Her, we are learning how to live with Her! Options are no longer the same with 7.9B people now on the planet. We are seeking a new balance. Funding disasters will reach a financial limit. Funding prevention will be called for as monies get low…

Please, a CAUTION: At least 2 days before and Oct 8, Mars in Libra squares Pluto at 27/28 degrees. When Mars has bad behavior in Libra, societal rules can be broken. Relationship boundaries over stepped, sexual abuse can happen. With Pluto in Capricorn there could be revenge, rebellion, scandal, serious danger. Be sure your insurances cover current needs, be sure your security is up to date. At the very personal level, please be cautious about casual or ‘extreme’ or controlling sex, sex with complete strangers, being in an isolated party or place even with a friend. Depending on the situation, seduction can be flattering or abusive. This time err on the side of caution. Be safe in all ways.

The good side of the square is Pluto in Capricorn may be intrigued by Mars’ innovative new ideas, introductions to new alliances, possible partners. Mars may become part of the team, but isn’t always happy with taking orders. Give him some leeway for initiative, yet set some deadlines and check on his work from time to time – he can get distracted by emergencies or new passions! Know that Mars is a fast learner and be grateful for the training! But also know that he may take what he learns from you and start his own business. He is independent by nature. Keep your client list secure.

It’s not so easy or wise to push this old master Pluto around, especially when he is in Capricorn the sign of Masters! But when Mars is in Scorpio may still try. The matters of Oct 8 time may still sting. He may have lost face, been put in jail. He can be an adept martial artist type who just happens to hate being told what to do. But, on the good side, Scorpio and Capricorn are compatible and so are Mars and Pluto to an extent. In normal business, Mars can just be glad he is nimble and sneaky, LOL! He can dart in with his ideas, then vanish to let Pluto think it over. Respectfully might work best, but sometimes you just need to bust the old patterns wide open just to get an audience. Approval may be a bit more work. But, get started if you see it will take some time.

Unusually, the Full Moon axis stands alone! Moon in Aries will be just fine with that! She is uniquely independent in Aries, likes making up her own mind. She wants the kids to think for themselves, and sometimes they are rebellious with her, which she is proud of and admires! She has things to do and has no fear to step out in front, the first to get there! She can be a bit pushy, surprising some, but they listen because they have seen her intuition work before. In Aries it is even faster! She is likely to be adventurous, and more athletic, the leader of her community. Be ready to defend yourself if there is a disagreement. See if what she has to offer can be modified and incorporated. She will be on your side and perhaps become a terrific consultant!

Sun in Libra wants things to be nice, but will give you a good by-the-book battle in court! He has a super talent to be able to see both sides at once. This can be tough in family matters, not taking a stand for one person or another. But as a mediator it can bring a grateful solution to both parties. Social events are often business and/or politically minded or bring good friends together and a lot of plans be made, or just have a good-to-see-you reunion! Glad-to-meet-you events can bring new friends, alliances, love relationships! Community improvements, museums, galleries, plays and symphonies might be on the table.

Moon gets excited and says let’s do it now! If Moon is suggesting a new project, Sun instantly sees the value, will negotiate the way as possible! If her project is ahead of the times, much as they want it now, they may have to wait a bit.

Jupiter in Taurus is retrograde now, but will be coming forward to conjunct Uranus April 20, 2024! WOW! That will be some experience! Do be thinking on what you would like to see happen by then, be preparing for it even now. Allow your mind to sweep the environment, to expand what you aspire to. Jupiter will turn forward Dec 30. A lengthy one degree station will be Dec 6 through Jan 24, 2024. Those of you with chart factors at or very close to 5 and 6 degrees will be activated. In that time, some deeper principles will take root with you, securing a strong foundation, worthy of your continued care as they develop further. Jupiter is lucky for Earth, expands earth events, education, perspectives of long term value. Yes, we have seen huge earth events, some not seeming so lucky, but in the long term we will do better with these kinds of events as we plan ahead to use them rather than suffer destruction. One of the things we can do is manage our food production choices in context of coming weather. Another is to mitigate temperature changes. Jupiter rules heat! See more: 2023-24 Aspects and other Sign Changes!

Chiron is in Aries the sign of independence, is also standing alone, but not for long! He is rooting for Moon in Aries and she is about to meet up with him at 10:45 PM Pacific! He is glad to see her feisty self and the changes she has been promoting, the first! He’s delighted to hear the latest! For the time being, neither is very marriage minded though Sun in Libra may be thinking of hooking each up with someone special. Chiron does think of marriage, but it’s far more likely for Moon than for himself. What’s more likely is they may discuss new cures, health improvements, new athletic options! A good fast walk or bike ride may happen. Moon in turn might tell all her woman friends, and the exercise class his new findings! She is doing well and that lifts Chiron’s spirits.

This very day, Saturn in Pisces starts his one degree station that lasts until Dec 8! He comes close, all the way back to 0 Pisces 31, but does not go back into Aquarius! He is standing in place anchoring the essence of Pisces matters, updating the dream foundation at this point. Those of you with chart factors at 28-29 Aquarius or very close to 0 and 1 degrees Pisces will be activated. An arbitrary one degree choice may vary for some of you. Some will feel it sooner, at two or three degrees depending on your personal chart. Stations are significant points in a planet’s voyage, a place of absorbing, focus, learning the depth and meaning deeply, steeping in the doing, developing an alliance with a particular place of perception. There is an inception and becoming one with a point of reference. Those are a few ways to see it, you may have additional ideas.

I see Saturn as harnessing the insights and psychic ability of Pisces, the ability to understand something that was unknown, develop a personal form of Spirituality that brings you to your knees and exhilarates your Soul!  At the earth level we have seen swarms of floods and powerful water events. I want to see ways for Saturn to harvest water significantly, to help take care of our oceans, reduce plastic and poisonous pollution, to harvest safely without harming other fish, dolphins and whales, to harvest clean and more abundantly.

Pluto is back in Capricorn until Jan 20, 2024. See more about this period of the 246 year Capricorn-Aquarius transition. There is great strength in hard won, tried and true knowledge. On that foundation Aquarian r/evolution makes more useful solid advances, securely implemented, maintained by the timeless high standards Capricorn has stood for. Capricorn is the sign of time and knows instinctively when a shift is in progress. Ruling borders and boundaries, he is a Gateway specialist! He is a mentor, always guiding and guarding the newbies. Aquarius is at the cutting edge, on totally new ground and can use all the help he can get. Many Aquarians have their Mercurys in Capricorn and many Capricorns have their Mercurys in Aquarius! They live this transition all their lives. They will be there for us. While the rest of us are scrambling, it’s business as usual for them.

___________________

While the three inner planets are at work, the three outmost higher consciousness planets, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto,
are still in their sextiles/trine pattern. Many events are making world headlines. They are taking it to the next level, meaning these are considered higher consciousness planets! This combination of the three outmost planets aspecting each other this way is quite rare and will continue through 2028.

They are sextiling – opportunities – each other and Uranus in Taurus has moved into trine with Pluto while Pluto is retrograde back in fellow earth sign Capricorn. Jupiter is closer to his conjunction with Uranus, and many are already sensing the amazing possibilities. But for now, Jupiter is in station about to retrograde. They will be exact April 2024. The threesome is holding in earth and water signs until Pluto makes his shift back into Aquarius again Jan 2024. That will leave Uranus and Neptune keeping the dream electric and lively! Neptune evolves just like all the planets do. With Uranus, even Neptune develops a new level of awareness. At first it may seem a bit prickly, but as he gets used to it, it’s more sparkly! In fact, it’s all quite intriguing.

When she first heard about these three together, a friend said OMG, that sounds destabilizing and slightly terrifying! And it can be, depending on your point of view and climate changes. Sometimes destabilizing can be a chosen technique, done on purpose in a good way, like the demolition of an old dangerous building. At the same time space is made to accommodate opening the good gates of the future, an amazing rebuild, making a park, a hospital, library, low income senior housing. With climate disasters, entire areas are devastated. Yet even during anger and grief, there is the seeing of a significant, even profound, choice of rebirth of much better ways. In time, surprisingly, the whole experience brings gratitude. As Rumi says: “Earth turns to Gold in the hands of the Wise.” Here is our big chance to make it so!

Uranus sextile Neptune

Uranus has been within a 5° sextile with Neptune since July ’23, and will be for five months through Dec 16, 2023! Uranus is the last Air planet, the planet of the heavens, flight and electronics – the internet and networking. The Awakener has humanitarian inclinations and collective intent. There is maximum exchange of information, extraordinary invention, as genius is released planet wide! He changes, adds dimension to Neptune’s way of seeing and content of his visions! That Uranus is grounded in Taurus, he keeps the intentions sensible and steady. Things may not be so ‘loud.’ More gets done since undistracted energy is concentrated, applied right where needed, and doesn’t quit until completed.

Neptune, the most adaptable planet, quickly takes on the Uranian continuum of skills, adeptly commingles it with his own psychic seeing! He gives remarkable tips that bypass super logic and gets us there without explanation. Astonishing as always was and will be! There are leaps beyond our ken, but we arrive, suddenly transported, functioning in a way we didn’t know before, but is right as rain. It seems like a miracle, but is really normal. In the face of disasters, Neptune has unexpected resilience, shows the strength of the Soul. Healing knows no bounds.

At times we get lost in the glory and excitement of such transitions. We get enamored with the genius of it all. But Neptune reminds us it’s not just what we can do but the meaning of it all. We take a few still moments to honor our original inspiration, the commandments of our Soul, the depth of caring, need for change that started our pilgrimage.

After Dec 16, 2023 they again pick up their less than 5° sextile June 14, 2024 through Feb 13, 2025! This second set is eight months, making a total of 13 months! Neptune again leaves Uranus behind, entering ARIES Mar 30, 2025, never making the exact sextile while Neptune is in Pisces! Yet all that time, they are functioning together, progressively activating 19 through 28 degree factors in our charts! They are awakening us, establishing a foundation, setting the stage for the exact aspect sets to come.

Aug 28, 2025 they start their two year set of EXACT sextiles. It is the first of five aspects but in Gemini and Aries! See more!

With the outmost planets, this pattern of coming close then moving apart is normal. It gives time to get to know each other in context of the type of aspect and the signs they are in. The can see how to protect themselves if necessary, how to help each other as possible.

Uranus trine Pluto

Uranus trine Pluto are also in a pre exact aspects prelude period. Currently, since Uranus is sextile Neptune, and Neptune is sextile Pluto, Uranus is trine Pluto though technically not quite within the 5° or less zone. Since around the end of July, or earlier, Uranus and Pluto have been considering each other. Uranus slows to his stand still station Aug 28. Pluto is retrograding getting closer by degree with Uranus. They get closest Sep 10/11 then gradually part further. But once aware of each other, they can still watch…plus Neptune, between them, has his eye on both and they are both watching Neptune. It’s a bit intricate and it isn’t done yet.

There are two more close periods, seeding and getting used to the connection. They don’t make the first EXACT trine until July 17, 2026, while Pluto is in Aquarius, Uranus in Gemini! Like Uranus sextile Neptune, this too is a 5 time set of aspects and takes two years to complete on May 9, 2028.

While Neptune is midpoint between them he can act as a buffer. Pluto in Capricorn is set in some of his ways. Uranus is the planet of change and evolution while Capricorn is the guardian of the status quo, elders. Pluto doesn’t want anyone messing with his relationships, especially with money. But, they are nevertheless, trine, likely to find ways to work with each other. Uranus in Taurus is more sensible, but certainly not the same. His advocacy for individual’ rights includes money, but from the opposite side of the table. Pluto is corporate money, the ruler of Scorpio, OUR money. Taurus is MY money. It will take a little doing to bridge this difference. Both are strong and both can be stubborn. Since Neptune in Pisces is known for his empathy and understanding, his long bond with Pluto, he may lean a bit more to Pluto’s side – the fundraiser side.

Neptune sextile Pluto 82 years!

Neptune and Pluto know each other well. From 1900 through 2032, there is only one aspect made between Neptune and Pluto! It came within effective range in the midst of World War II during 1942. Neptune sextile Pluto has a profound and exotic history! Jamie Partridge refers to it as an ‘inter-generational’ planetary aspect lasting from 1950 to 2032! In those years there are 49 exact aspects over three to four generations! Both planets have changed signs multiple times in that period. At this part of their orbits they have been traveling at speeds that have allowed them to keep the sextile aspect for 82 years! Though their last exact sextile was June 9, 1986, they have stayed in sextile, sometimes closer, sometimes further apart, until now! July 24 to Sep 15, 2026 they start exact aspects again! They make 13 additional exact aspects in this period completing the 82 years! Chart factors you have in or very close to those degrees will tap you into this sequence.

As planets travel for long times together, they become more like each other. Neptune and Pluto are both water planets (Pisces and Scorpio) and both have to do with transformation. Pluto transforms our bodies from the Kundalini up. Neptune transforms our Spirit. Pluto goes deep to cure the cause. Neptune pulls us to believe in the unseeable, our dreams. Neptune calls Pluto to compassion. Pluto says face the facts. There is the physical doctor and if the patient doesn’t believe, they can die no matter how great the Dr is. If there is no great Dr, the patient may die no matter what he believes. Truly, we need these two to work together. We/they, have been getting better at it!

This connection is more significant now because March 23, 2023 Pluto first entered Aquarius, a 246 year event! Now through 2044, 21 years, there will be significant world changes. ’26 to ’32 the remaining 13 exact sextiles with Neptune happen while Neptune is in Aries, Pluto in Aquarius. Please continue to strengthen our Aquarian and Uranian people, those factors in your own charts!

You can see the potency of this three outer planet grouping. The harmony of these planets draws us past our daily experience. We are encountering great principles working together. Uranus is humanitarian, the Awakener. Neptune is the dreamer of the vastitudes, spiritual Master. Pluto awakens the Kundalini, the fire at the base of the spine, burns away the dross, aligns the chakras and we are ON! When Pluto is in Aquarius, Uranus’s sign, the two are combined as one, unimaginable electric life force! Immense possibilities. See more about the approaching April 2024 Jupiter conjunct Uranus! This aspect alone will jump the group a few light years ahead!

Oct 14 Libra Annular Solar ECLIPSE New Moon!

Saturday Oct 14, 10:55 AM Pacific at 21 Libra 08!

Relationships are taking new turns as shifts are happening due to our strong connections with the Higher Consciousness Planets – Uranus, Neptune and Pluto!

Oct 14 2023 Libra Annular Solar Eclipse New Moon Ring of Fire!

Happy Solar Eclipse everyone! Nearly all of North America will be able to witness a partial solar eclipse on Oct. 14, but to see the annular eclipse, skywatchers, eclipse chasers, will need to travel to a narrow path that stretches from southern Oregon through southern Texas.

Our current Annular SOLAR Eclipse will be visible in West in Africa, (SW) North America, South America, Pacific, Atlantic, Arctic. Oregon to Texas will see an annular (“ring”) eclipse! SEE the map where it crosses the 2024 Eclipse! This eclipse crosses the path of the April 8 2024 TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE in Texas! While the 2024 Eclipse crosses the 2017 Eclipse in Carbondale IL AGAIN! What are the odds of that?!?!

Special Eclipse Reminder! April 8, 2024 Total Solar Eclipse: this path will stretch from central Texas to northern New England. The duration of totality will average just under 4 minutes (4 minutes 27 seconds in Texas). Interestingly, the path of totality will again encompass the 2017 Carbondale, Illinois. Carbondale is on the center-line of the path of totality and will see 4 minutes and 9 seconds of totality for eclipse 2024, nearly double what was seen in 2017, and IT was wonderful! Many locations were booked for the 2024 eclipse in 2017! Whether you pick Texas or Carbondale, make your reservations ASAP!

 Upcoming Oct. 14, 2023 Ring of Fire Eclipse Watch! Got your reservations yet? Won’t happen again until 2039! What a fantastic experience! SEE all about it here, including MORE MAPS! DON’T FORGET YOUR SAFETY GLASSES, AND SPECIAL CAMERA GEAR LIKE SOLAR FILM! See How to photograph a solar eclipse at Space.com!

This ECLIPSE New Moon is the second of a series of New Moons at 20 and 21 degrees. They started Sep 14, 2023, continue to March 10, 2024. April 8, 2024 is at 19 degrees. The energy of this eclipse will be renewed and carried through these 7 to 8 months! If you have factors in your chart at or very close to these degrees, especially if they are part of network, pay close attention. Plan your intentions as they are activated at each sign. Each will have specific different information to offer and your method of working them will change each time with an additional quality added. Congratulate yourself in March/April 2024! Review the Virgo New Moon, the starting point. It will be different for all of you since your charts differ widely.

Eclipses are magical mergers of the human mind and the light shows of the heavens. Be there!


All the inner planets are now moving forward. Venus and Mercury completed both their entire retrograde cycles as of Oct 7. We’re free and clear, now living what we learned into their achievements! All the outer planets are now retrograde through Oct 10 when Pluto turns forward to release his findings, build updated, more solid and efficiently!

The chart planetary geometry is a Seesaw making the classic oppositions. The Libra Eclipse itself is making the prime opposition, s/he is at the South Lunar Node opposite the North in Aries. The nodes are always generally in retrograde going backward numerically to make exact oppositions with Moon 7:09 PM Pacific the same day, and with Sun Oct 18 at 5:43 PM. At the South Node, the Eclipse is picking up talents from past/past lives, and righting old wrongs. Libra is seeking a more true balance, justice, respect. Some old comrades from the past may make a karmic/dharmic check in. Make it count in a good way.

Part of the importance of the Node’s events, Libra-Aries are being able to be independent, a leader, AND work together, each contributing their own strengths. Moon’s Nodes are considered to be somewhat karmic, to connect concepts of mistakes of the past/past lives with making amendments balanced by the opposite principles of the opposite sign, of current times. It is not always easy within ourselves, because the soul has its memories, and we, and others involved, have fears, angers and perversions, chronic behaviors that need to be faced and overcome. Do have patience with each other and yourself. Though you may be ready to make good, the other may not be able to receive your offering yet, and vice versa.

The Eclipse will open channels not usually available as Earth, Moon and Sun are precisely lined up. Moon receives Sun’s full energy, channels it on to Earth. Libra, though the very sign of oppositions, balances the energy, as it is transferred, makes it more in alignment with the planetary collective at this time as earth beings are able to receive it. Their relationships, with the planet herself and with each other, will be played like a spiritual chess game as their attention shifts en masse. New options will be opened for consciousness. With Sun as the prime source, some will perceive a personal kind of enlightenment. The Eclipse is at 21° Libra, the oppositions with the Node are at 25°. You with chart factors at or very close to these degrees will have the option to connect significantly.

The New Moon is oblique, inconjunct Uranus, the Aquarian planet. Unusual planetary happenings will be creating a broader awareness, of environmental changes. Important land purchases may be under negotiation. Friends will come and go, they will change their opinions about many things very quickly, be significantly more dedicated to stepping up prevention. Electronic devices, electric vehicles, will figure in but not necessarily make immediate headlines. Discoveries about our brains may help with better care, repairs. Non traditional relationships will become more available and valuable as they prove their worth.

Mercury, also in Libra, is at same degree opposition with Chiron in Aries! Mercury can be a skilled negotiator in Libra, dealing with opposite sides in families, couple’s relationships, business, at court, politically. Chiron calls in the medical component, with Mercury, healing minds, medical or mental. Chiron impresses us to do it now, whether medical, business, personal relationships. Really, we have urgent needs on the planet today. We need to work more together, both on remediation and prevention. Mercury knows there are times when things can’t be rushed or the option to connect may may be lost. Sometimes you have to take the chance, if you lose, you lose, but you tried. You must move on to more fertile grounds. Other times, your good intent is seen and surprisingly it works against the odds and everyone is blessed, thankful, finally! The future has some wonderful possibilities.

The inner planets have changed signs. Mercury in Libra is submitting data to show us how things can prosper when we share our best with each other.

Venus has left Leo, stronger in her sense of Self! She carries that on into Virgo now, with intelligence that gets things organized and done with high regard for quality, less expense and more quickly! She is creating jobs, taking care of living conditions, opting for better health for humans and pets too. Relationships are being tended more graciously, more specific appreciations given.

Mars is in no-fooling-around Scorpio since Oct 11 until he’s in Sagittarius Nov 24, the day after ThanksGiving! He’s been trine with Saturn the last week, exact yesterday, obsessed with getting things cleaned up, funded, done, in record time! Saturn in Pisces has been doing his best to build that dream! He needed that help and was so grateful for the push over the top! Good job!

Oct 8 while Mars was in Libra, he squared Pluto, Scorpio’s ruler at 27/28 degrees. When Mars has bad behavior in Libra, societal rules can be broken. Relationship boundaries over stepped, sexual abuse, with Pluto in Capricorn there could be revenge, rebellion, scandal, serious danger. I cautioned: Be sure your insurances cover current needs, be sure your security is up to date. At the very personal level, please be cautious about casual or ‘extreme’ or controlling sex, sex with complete strangers, being in an isolated party or place even with a friend. Depending on the situation, seduction can be flattering or abusive. This time err on the side of caution. Be safe in all ways.

If things worked out well: The good side is Pluto in Capricorn may be intrigued by Mars’ innovative new ideas, introductions to new alliances, possible partners. Mars may become part of the team, but isn’t always happy with taking orders. Give him some leeway for initiative, yet set some deadlines and check on his work from time to time – he can get distracted by emergencies or new passions! Know that Mars is a fast learner and be grateful for the training! But, know that he may take what he learns from you and start his own business. Keep your client list secure.

If things didn’t go well: It’s not so easy or wise to push this old master Pluto around, especially when he is Capricorn the sign of Masters! But Mars in Scorpio may still try. The matters of Oct 8 time may still sting. He may have lost face, put in jail. He can be an adept martial artist type who just happens to hate being told what to do. But, on the good side, Scorpio and Capricorn are compatible and so are Mars and Pluto to an extent. In normal business, Mars can just be glad he is nimble and sneaky, LOL! He can dart in with his ideas, then vanish to let Pluto think it over. Respectfully, might work best, but sometimes you just need to bust the old patterns wide open just to get an audience. Approval may be a bit more work. But, get started if you see it will take some time.

Venus is leaving Mars behind. Due to their speed variances over the next months, they don’t connect until Feb 21, 2024 in an Aquarian conjunction – not a classic favorable wedding combo, but it will be an exciting and exotic few days for some!

Jupiter in Taurus is still retrograde, but will be coming forward to conjunct Uranus April 20, 2024! WOW! That will be some experience! Do be thinking on what you would like to see happen by then, be preparing for it even now. Allow your mind to sweep the environment, to expand what you aspire to. Jupiter will turn forward Dec 30. A lengthy one degree station will be Dec 6 through Jan 24, 2024. Those of you with chart factors at or very close to 5 and 6 degrees will be activated. In that time, some deeper principles will take root with you, securing a strong foundation, worthy of your continued care as they develop further. Jupiter is lucky for Earth, expands earth events, education, perspectives of long term value. Yes, we have seen huge earth events, some not seeming so lucky, but in the long term we will do better with these kinds of events as we plan ahead to use them rather than suffer destruction. One of the things we can do is manage our food production choices in context of coming weather. Another is to mitigate temperature changes. Jupiter rules heat!

___________________

The three outmost planets, the higher consciousness planets Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, are still in their sextiles/trine pattern. Many events are making world headlines. They are taking it to the next level, meaning these are considered higher consciousness planets! This combination of the three outmost planets aspecting each other this way is quite rare and will continue through 2028.

They are sextiling – opportunities – each other and Uranus in Taurus has moved into trine with Pluto while Pluto is retrograde back in fellow earth sign Capricorn. Jupiter is closer to his conjunction with Uranus, and many are already sensing the amazing possibilities. But for now, Jupiter is in station about to retrograde. They will be exact April 2024. The threesome is holding in earth and water signs until Pluto makes his shift back into Aquarius again Jan 2024. That will leave Uranus and Neptune keeping the dream electric and lively! Neptune evolves just like all the planets do. With Uranus, even Neptune develops a new level of awareness. At first it may seem a bit prickly, but as he gets used to it, it’s more sparkly! In fact, it’s all quite intriguing.

When she first heard about these three together, a friend said OMG, that sounds destabilizing and slightly terrifying! And it can be, depending on your point of view and climate changes. Sometimes destabilizing can be a chosen technique, done on purpose in a good way, like the demolition of an old dangerous building. At the same time space is made to accommodate opening the good gates of the future, an amazing rebuild, making a park, a hospital, library, low income senior housing. With climate disasters, entire areas are devastated. Yet even during anger and grief, there is the seeing of a significant, even profound, choice of rebirth of much better ways. In time, surprisingly, the whole experience brings gratitude. As Rumi says: “Earth turns to Gold in the hands of the Wise.” Here is our big chance to make it so!

Uranus sextile Neptune

Uranus has been within a 5° sextile with Neptune since July ’23, and will be for five months through Dec 16, 2023! Uranus is the last Air planet, the planet of the heavens, flight and electronics – the internet and networking. The Awakener has humanitarian inclinations and collective intent. There is maximum exchange of information, extraordinary invention, as genius is released planet wide! He changes, adds dimension to Neptune’s way of seeing and content of his visions! That Uranus is grounded in Taurus, he keeps the intentions sensible and steady. Things may not be so ‘loud.’ More gets done since undistracted energy is concentrated, applied right where needed, and doesn’t quit until completed.

Neptune, the most adaptable planet, quickly takes on the Uranian continuum of skills, adeptly commingles it with his own psychic seeing! He gives remarkable tips that bypass super logic and gets us there without explanation. Astonishing as always was and will be! There are leaps beyond our ken, but we arrive, suddenly transported, functioning in a way we didn’t know before, but is right as rain. It seems like a miracle, but is really normal. In the face of disasters, Neptune has unexpected resilience, shows the strength of the Soul. Healing knows no bounds.

At times we get lost in the glory and excitement of such transitions. We get enamored with the genius of it all. But Neptune reminds us it’s not just what we can do but the meaning of it all. We take a few still moments to honor our original inspiration, the commandments of our Soul, the depth of caring, need for change that started our pilgrimage.

After Dec 16, 2023 they again pick up their less than 5° sextile June 14, 2024 through Feb 13, 2025! This second set is eight months, making a total of 13 months! Neptune again leaves Uranus behind, entering ARIES Mar 30, 2025, never making the exact sextile while Neptune is in Pisces! Yet all that time, they are functioning together, progressively activating 19 through 28 degree factors in our charts! They are awakening us, establishing a foundation, setting the stage for the exact aspect sets to come.

Aug 28, 2025 they start their two year set of EXACT sextiles. It is the first of five aspects but in Gemini and Aries! See more!

With the outmost planets, this pattern of coming close then moving apart is normal. It gives time to get to know each other in context of the type of aspect and the signs they are in. The can see how to protect themselves if necessary, how to help each other as possible.

Uranus trine Pluto

Uranus trine Pluto are also in a pre exact aspects prelude period. Currently, since Uranus is sextile Neptune, and Neptune is sextile Pluto, Uranus is trine Pluto though technically not quite within the 5° or less zone. Since around the end of July, or earlier, Uranus and Pluto have been considering each other. Uranus slows to his stand still station Aug 28. Pluto is retrograding getting closer by degree with Uranus. They get closest Sep 10/11 then gradually part further. But once aware of each other, they can still watch…plus Neptune, between them, has his eye on both and they are both watching Neptune. It’s a bit intricate and it isn’t done yet.

There are two more close periods, seeding and getting used to the connection. They don’t make the first EXACT trine until July 17, 2026, while Pluto is in Aquarius, Uranus in Gemini! Like Uranus sextile Neptune, this too is a 5 time set of aspects and takes two years to complete on May 9, 2028.

While Neptune is midpoint between them he can act as a buffer. Pluto in Capricorn is set in some of his ways. Uranus is the planet of change and evolution while Capricorn is the guardian of the status quo, elders. Pluto doesn’t want anyone messing with his relationships, especially with money. But, they are nevertheless, trine, likely to find ways to work with each other. Uranus in Taurus is more sensible, but certainly not the same. His advocacy for individual’ rights includes money, but from the opposite side of the table. Pluto is corporate money, the ruler of Scorpio, OUR money. Taurus is MY money. It will take a little doing to bridge this difference. Both are strong and both can be stubborn. Since Neptune in Pisces is known for his empathy and understanding, his long bond with Pluto, he may lean a bit more to Pluto’s side – the fundraiser side.

Neptune sextile Pluto 82 years!

Neptune and Pluto know each other well. From 1900 through 2032, there is only one aspect made between Neptune and Pluto! It came within effective range in the midst of World War II during 1942. Neptune sextile Pluto has a profound and exotic history! Jamie Partridge refers to it as an ‘inter-generational’ planetary aspect lasting from 1950 to 2032! In those years there are 49 exact aspects over three to four generations! Both planets have changed signs multiple times in that period. At this part of their orbits they have been traveling at speeds that have allowed them to keep the sextile aspect for 82 years! Though their last exact sextile was June 9, 1986, they have stayed in sextile, sometimes closer, sometimes further apart, until now! July 24 to Sep 15, 2026 they start exact aspects again! They make 13 additional exact aspects in this period completing the 82 years! Chart factors you have in or very close to those degrees will tap you into this sequence.

As planets travel for long times together, they become more like each other. Neptune and Pluto are both water planets (Pisces and Scorpio) and both have to do with transformation. Pluto transforms our bodies from the Kundalini up. Neptune transforms our Spirit. Pluto goes deep to cure the cause. Neptune pulls us to believe in the unseeable, our dreams. Neptune calls Pluto to compassion. Pluto says face the facts. There is the physical doctor and if the patient doesn’t believe, they can die no matter how great the Dr is. If there is no great Dr, the patient may die no matter what he believes. Truly, we need these two to work together. We/they, have been getting better at it!

This connection is more significant now because March 23, 2023 Pluto first entered Aquarius, a 246 year event! Now through 2044, 21 years, there will be significant world changes. ’26 to ’32 the remaining 13 exact sextiles with Neptune happen while Neptune is in Aries, Pluto in Aquarius. Please continue to strengthen our Aquarian and Uranian people, those factors in your own charts!

You can see the potency of this three outer planet grouping. The harmony of these planets draws us past our daily experience. We are encountering great principles working together. Uranus is humanitarian, the Awakener. Neptune is the dreamer of the vastitudes, spiritual Master. Pluto awakens the Kundalini, the fire at the base of the spine, burns away the dross, aligns the chakras and we are ON! When Pluto is in Aquarius, Uranus’s sign, the two are combined as one, unimaginable electric life force! Immense possibilities. See more about the approaching April 2024 Jupiter conjunct Uranus! This aspect alone will jump the group a few light years ahead!

2023 Taurus Mercury Retrograde Door County WI Windy Road Frykman

Myles Dannhausen Jr. says ‘While the design of the final stretch of Highway 42 from Charlie’s Smokehouse in Gills Rock to the Washington Island Ferry Dock might annoy those hurrying to catch the boat, those not in a rush often stop to take pictures or just enjoy Door County’s [Wisconsin] beauty from their car. They’re supposed to.’ It was designed on purpose to make people notice their surroundings more and enjoy the ride. Some say it may have been done just to preserve some good trees. Superb photo by Heather Harle Frykman 

Venus in late Summer Leo suggests last Golden vacations! Mercury in earthy Fall Virgo we think of colorful leaves, a harvest Moon perhaps, getting back to school. 

7.12 Note:  Venus is now Retrograde through Sep 3! When Sun goes into Virgo Aug 23 Pacific time, Mercury RETROGRADE starts at 21 Virgo 51, starting the Double Rx!

See the complete Venus Leo, Mercury Virgo Double Retrograde Timeline

Background context… 

The whole double set is while Pluto has retrograded from Aquarius back into Capricorn. Some old things aren’t finished yet. Some need updating and tweaking to make it all work. Pluto feels a bit more at home, and is remembering good things to be kept and brought forward into new times, thinks about how to incorporate them in his future.

June 19th is a significant 2023 day because it is the day of the last outer planet aspect formed in 2023 – Jupiter sextile Saturn, the day the Venus cycle starts! From there on, it is taking care of the aspects that have already happened, and tending the Capricorn- Aquarius exchange. Strengthening everything Aquarius continues to be essential since Pluto is still preparing for that 20-21 Aquarian years to come.

Jupiter in Taurus (one of Venus’ signs) is sextile Saturn, Capricorn’s planet, in Pisces. Jupiter will know how to ground some of the best stuff and make those Pisces dreams come true. Saturn is a hard worker and in Pisces is super intuitive! This is a great launch for Venus in Leo’s RX cycle! It gives Venus an opportunity to make the great beauty she and dramatic colorful Leo can create together. They will be noticed! Might be costly, but worth it. Inspiring for all!


When I say cycle, I mean they start into the degrees they will cover, that they will go back over when retrograde. The third part of the cycle is when they go forward over the same degrees the third time.

As the April-May Taurus Mercury retrograde cycle ends, many of you are already planning well ahead. Late summer we look at heartful and hardworking Leo Venus/Mercury Virgo DOUBLE RETROGRADE! The Venus retrograde cycle 12 to 28 Leo starts first, June 19 on the Jupiter sextile Saturn! It ends last, Oct 7. It is retrograde July 22 – Sep 3.

Mercury starts his cycle Aug 3, finishes Sep 29, 8 to 21 Virgo 49. He is Rx Aug 23 to Sep 15. The DOUBLE RX is Aug 23 to Sep 3, Labor Day weekend! Rather fitting for such a working sign like Virgo!

These late summer-fall Retrogrades are at an important time of year when summer vacations are happening, overlapping with back to school and leaving home to go to college! Important decisions are being make about which college and where to live. Some families will be separated for the first times, empty nests while the young ones are overwhelmed or couldn’t be happier! On another front, many people will be getting new jobs in new locations. Some will be successful while others are disappointed.

If your chart is connected, expect lots of unexpected changes – that’s what retrogrades do. Have your support team set up for calls to help you at tough times or to share the excitement of the great times! Have backup plans mapped out just in case. Arrange extra funding in case you need it. We will know a lot more when the cycles end in the first week of October. 

Venus is always 47° or less of the Sun. Venus retrogrades once about every 19 months, Sun and Moon don’t at all, Mercury RXs 3-4 times a year! We hear a lot about Mercury RX because of its frequency. We don’t hear about Venus as much, but its RX is longer, about 40 days. If it isn’t a cross sign retrograde, the duration of the sign Venus RXs in is the sign Venus is in the longest of its circuit! This time Venus almost leaves Leo, the sunshine sign, but at the next to last degree she turns back to review and make it better and best! Venus will be in Leo from June 5 to Oct 8, FOUR months!

Since this Double starts with Venus in Leo, a romantic combination that loves luxury, know that your love life will have some twists and turns, offs and ons. Generally Venus, Mercury RXs are not elope times. Give any relationships that start during the Retrograde the full 6 months of trial. Check on your potential partner’s credit. It’s good to know their real status. If homing together, it may be better to rent than buy during retrogrades. Venus is money, valuables, as well as love and beauty. Venus can be astute about values, selfish and wasteful, but do terrific upgrading that pays off. Do planning but don’t start the project until 4 days after Mercury goes Direct (forward) Sep 15. If you are already in a relationship, it may be temporarily a rough time. Keep your channels open. See it through. What was once sweet, likely will be sweet again. Give it a chance. 

Venus in Leo can be a real prince or princess. They have a regal air about them whether wealthy or are the king of the paupers. They can be naively or naturally sweetly innocent, a benevolent heartful person or a sadly gilded lily, or a desperate gold digger. They can be a pretty catch, to be shown off – beautiful clothes, adornments, jewelry grace them. Often they excel as models and colorful entertainers in the bright lights. They have major flair, dramatic style, wear the sequins! In their lovingness they may set up nonprofits, funding organizations for charities. They have champion athletic abilities, but watch out for the gamblers who bet on games and the horses! Venus in Leo are gifted happening people who shine bright! They don’t always make change easily, but when they do they give it all their heart!

Counter to Leo the spender, Mercury in Virgo is a great budgeter, often rather conservative with the funds. They want to see good reasons for an investment, proven good returns, steady growth. They peck out the hidden details, check track records. They look for the best deals. Are great maintenance people, managing housing communities. They are mindful of changes, feel them coming. They like a good system, a smooth routine and don’t always function well when there are kinks in the process. They want top of the mark production, for jobs to come in on time. Frequently Master Craftsmen, they are often so good at things, they find it difficult to consult with others since usually they do it better than most anyone else anyway. 

Virgo is an important sign because it has to do with our health. Nutrition, sleep, cleanliness, exercise are all important. Keep your health as well balanced as possible. You can trust them to do your shopping for you. They cleverly teach craft skills, are great physical therapists, superb hiking guides, exercise trainers. They will reduce your depression, keep you busy and productive when you are down. Educate yourself about the issues in your life so you can make more changes for the better.

Leo and Virgo are neighboring signs! Leo is as flashy as Virgo usually isn’t, but Virgos are often super fine models with every superb detail in place! Models always have that clean look! In this case, Leo adds the flamboyant component that puts the presentation over the top! Leo spends big; Virgo is the accountant, funds manager, budgeter. She says convince me. If you have sports injuries, she will provide specific care. Leo is romantic; Virgo is in love with her work, the service she gives. She may need Leo’s warm heartedness to heal her I’m-not-good-enough and a broken heart.   

Venus brings genuine beauty and gracious kindness to Leo. She gives him the charm of a lifetime that attracts good people and crazy fans, funding supporters, excellence in his brave presentation. He wins the races! He may become an artist that makes sweet flattering portraits of others like him and adorable children. 

Mercury is in her second sign Virgo. She collects the data and does the research. Service is her spiritual name. She tends the sick, births babies, sets up nutritional programs, does landscaping, organizing, bookkeeping, cleans. She makes daily life worth living! Venus in Leo could be pretty lazy ie bring me my chocolates, LOL. Virgo may have to make sure Venus pays the rent, works her job! At this time of year, there is homework to be done! Virgos are great nannies, and they have skills, tutoring among them. Getting your home ready for winter or minding the gardening are good Virgo talents. Let them shop for you for the best prices. Complex projects are natural for them and they can have several going at once, like in property management.

In this double retro, you will find yourself personally changing. You will see your faults and how to change. You will apply yourself just a little more carefully, be more mindful. Relationships and interactions with children will be more engaging and loving. You might decide to get engaged, but do it after the retrogrades to see if it still is good. Be careful with investments. Very. Even Virgo’s estimates may have to be redone after the retrogrades. 

Your personal standing as a reliable citizen may be tested. Retrogrades always have a few curve balls coming and Virgo is linear and likes her routine. So much for that. Thank goodness she can be flexible when necessary, adapts well. Health may take some ups and downs. Keep clean, eat right. Take care of your pets too, keep the gates closed. Employees may come and go, your own duties may shift too. You may be called to train the newbies, set up new systems. Avoid getting new tenants if possible. Be certain to sign contracts in a timely fashion.  

When Leo and Virgo work together, there is much respect. Venus gives high praise of Virgo’s skills, that Virgo so appreciates. Virgo admires the beautiful touches Venus adds to the work, making it more valuable, the most beautiful ever seen! It’s not just useful, it touches the Soul! Together they can do the most astounding things – dramatic beauty, helping hands and hearts, investments that don’t fail. During retrogrades in their signs, at the RX degrees, they are challenged more than others. Leo wails and Virgo whines! We laugh, but it isn’t so funny for them… It’s payback time – lend them a hand.

Yes, the Double Rx will be only 12 days, but if your chart is connected, I guarantee your late summer/fall won’t happen exactly as planned! 12 days is such a short time with so much to do. It will be intense, and will come out better than you thought! Venus in Leo stands up stubbornly for the best, and by her Grace, her shining Light, she succeeds!

Mercury in Aquarius 'sees' way beyond the boundaries...


Important Retrograde Direct Stations!

2023 Started with a double retrograde, Mercury and Mars. August/September Venus and Mercury do a double retrograde! All the 2023 Mercury RXs are in earth signs simplicity, practicality and daily living.

Venus retrogrades at 28 Leo 36 and directs at 12 Leo 12. 

Mercury retrogrades at 21 Virgo 51 and directs at 8 Virgo 0! 

Venus and Mercury are both linked to the June 19 Jupiter sextile Saturn! Mercury’s Direct is less than one degree of the Jupiter sextile Saturn at 7 Taurus 12 that happened the very day Venus’ cycle started! Mercury may delve into his memory banks and have some thoughts about how things have changed since then and need some organizing. It was an inspirational aspect and its legacy needs to be carried on.

Three stations, when planets turn retrograde or direct/forward, are at 8 degrees. Jan 18 was 8 Capricorn as will the Dec 12 one. The 8 Virgo one Sep 15 will trine both of them! Stations are important because, for example, Mercury hovers for 8 days at a degree or less of the retrograde position! There is time to focus, take it in, think it over, anchor the good stuff. Capricorn is the last earth sign, Saturn’s own sign! Virgo will pass the specs to him for final touches. He will make a template for others to use, continue to update, build more from. See more on Jupiter Sextile Saturn.

Mercury’s Aug 23 Rx station at 21 Virgo 51 is almost at 22°. The Jan 1, 2024, New Year Mercury Direct is at 22 Sagittarius 10, and the Nov 25 RX is 22 Sag 40. Granted this is a wide spread of dates, but nevertheless, some things that Virgo sets up this summer/fall will be questioned and updated. Educational matters may be the priority. They will have life importance to your future. What to study, which school, with whom. Virgo is always learning, often the trainer, mentor, master crafts person. Sagittarius is higher education, the professor, the university. Our Summer/Fall decisions will affect end of ’23/New Year 2024 and Nov ’24 choices. New Year 2024 choices will carry through Nov 2024 to be considered again before going into 2025. You can see how import the decisions this summer will be. 

Special REPEAT ASPECTS!2021 Jupiter Aquarius Sextile the Mighty Galactic Center GC

Please check the complete Timeline below to see the event dates in context.

Venus forms three aspects during her 3 part retrograde cycle.

Venus trine Chiron in Aries! Leo with Aries are fire to fire! Venus sees the blessings shaman Chiron has to offer and she wants to bring all he has to offer to everyone who will listen. She’s a terrific speaker who brings you to tears then inspires you to give everything you’ve got to the cause. At the personal level, this is time to go to the teacher/healer and get the help you have been hoping for! If an emergency, you may get life changing support!

Venus square Uranus in Taurus! Standin’ on the edge! Breaking through to the other side! Never been here before. Strange ~ turn back or take the leap? Traveling together with Venus trine Chiron, you may find you were strengthened to face your long term future face to face. It may not be comfortable, but if you can do it, you can take measures that will free you from your fears. It happens in such a way that it almost seems accidental. Very quickly. Don’t close your eyes. Be there. You may feel abandoned or not worthy if a friend leaves you/or you them, but it may show you how precious time is. Taurus wants to get planetary organic things done. You may feel overwhelmed, but Venus in Leo has plenty of prowess. Open the gates to be with people going your way. Let the Uranian storms clear the way! Poignant humanitarian matters can bring us to tears. We need solutions now.  

Venus inconjunct Neptune in own sign Pisces. Really? Fascinating. I’ll follow you. The old Master takes Venus for a walk through the ethers. Could be a sentimental journey. The first and second aspects to Neptune are the beginning and end of the retrograde station – meaning they are just at the 1 degree mark from the station. They are strongly in effect July 15 through July 30! The first inconjunct is while the Sun is in Cancer; Venus RXs while the Sun is in Cancer only 17 mins before going into Leo. The second inconjunct is while the Sun is in Leo! The third, Oct 3, is while the Sun is in Libra! Three signs, three different contexts! While in Cancer, Neptune is more in his element, but enjoys radiant Venus in Leo. She is intrigued by his astonishing perceptions, admires his knowing and not knowing. He is warmed by her kind heartedness, wants to help her think about her true self. While in Leo, Neptune really sees the Venus heart light! Neptune is impressed at her glow, wants to help her reach a radiance beyond words. She is in wonder of his capacity to ‘see.’ Adjustments will be made to be able to live comfortably with her potential. While in Libra, Venus’ second sign, Neptune sees another facet of her profound powers. She has the capacity to mediate with grace, go to battle at court if necessary. He wants to help her stay in her most compassionate center, true to her Soul. This seems like a small aspect, but Neptune will be pressed to stay with it as it develops. Venus will be growing into her powers with all the attendant work that requires. A sweet pride of achievement is in the offing.

Mercury in Virgo forms two aspects! 

Mercury trine Jupiter in Taurus!  Mercury and Jupiter naturally rule Gemini, Virgo and Sagittarius, signs square and opposite, but all concerned with learning. Mercury in Virgo swallows whole chunks of data and techniques whole! It’s remarkable to watch! Jupiter likes blitz courses and students who can keep up then go research and study on their own adding more to his superlative information! Mercury wants details and structure. Jupiter wants meaning and purpose, provides inspiration! Earthy Virgo and Taurus want common sense, to get the job done, solve some of the planetary matters. Publishing experiential projects would get the word out, attract more people to replicate, modify, experiment for further successes.   

Mercury in his own 2nd sign Virgo, inconjunct Chiron. Venus trines, an easy aspect, with Chiron. She has fired up the Healer! Mercury asks him question after question because she too is a healer in her own way. She’s the nurse, caregiver, nutritionist, health coach. Chiron in Aries has been out on the cutting edge swooping up as much new information as he can, especially first responder information. Mercury will be glad to add that to her skills just in case. He’s glad to feed it back to anyone who will listen. Virgo is quick and smart, puts things in order as fast as he tells her. She would make a good assistant, back him up with technical details and research sources! Her instinct is to get what she can right now, sensing how restless he is. The excitement between them fires him up even more. She may want to follow, but she has her own territory to care for, hopes he will return occasionally with the latest! 

Remember, all this is happening while Pluto has returned to Capricorn. Pluto rules life and death matters. Pluto cleans up messes and memories. Pluto rules the Kundalini, the fire of Life! Capricorn is our laws, construction. Together Pluto and Capricorn do remediation. It is time to adjust our laws to the reality of current times. Together we can build per our new needs. The last time Pluto was in Aquarius, it took many people to reach a significant % of outrage to leave their homes – American Revolution, to revolt – the French Revolution, to make the Industrial Revolution in England. During this coming 21 years of Pluto in Aquarius, tipping points will be reached again. Even in this humble retrograde, we are all working for that change.

ALL ABOUT RETROGRADES!

Some of you are old hands. Others have never heard of Retrograde before. New lingo: Retrograde, Direct, Station and more…

Retrogrades are fascinatingly complex! The wild dynamics of retrograde cycles are, as viewed from Earth, it happens when a faster planet passes a slower planet. Mercury is faster than Earth, while Earth is slower than Mars. The planet appears to go forward, backward, then forward over the same ground three times, and if outer planets, sometimes five times in two years! Of course that doesn’t happen in reality. It is visual because of the perspective from Earth. During that time, all the other planets are moving too, so even when a retrograde planet is going ‘backward’ over the same degrees, they are ALL going forward, even the retrograde planet! It’s ‘illogical,’ but that’s what happens.

Venus retrogrades about every 19 months for only about 40 days. Only 7–8% of the population has it in their natal chart. Mercury retrogrades 3 times a year, once every 6 years it’s 4 times that year. Mercury actually spends little time retrograde, only about 3 weeks! Mars retrogrades every 25/26 months for 60-80 days.

Retrogrades in the sky are passing periods. Retrogrades in a birth chart are life long, a living entity. As a place that is reprocessed over and over, fantastic skills are developed per planet and sign, along with the other chart factors that may be linked to it. Many top world businesses have many retrogrades in their charts! They have super expertise and it is still growing with the times! Retrogrades keep us mindful and present. In humans about 25% of the population has Mercury Retrograde, and that includes celebrities, LOL!  Fun read: Fascinating Facts About Being Born During Mercury Retrograde

The type of special communication skills of Mercury retrograde depend on which sign, house and planets Mercury connects with in your chart and what type of connections are made. Check out the planets of your own chart, your besties, and track the charts of babies born during retrogrades! Take advantage of these retrograde linkages, learn how to make transitions well for optimum results. Not a time to be nervous and hold back. Stay aboard! Like on a ship at sea, get your sea legs! Flex with the flow. It may seem like a mess, but the magic will happen. Guaranteed! 

We hear about Mercury Retrograde the most because it retrogrades 3 to 4 times a year, for only about three weeks a time.

Mercury is the planet of the Mind, thinking, our attention, our breath and lungs, how we learn to learn, communication skills, gathering data, paperwork, signing contracts, a hand shake, the laying on of hands. All of these are essential.

Mercury is heady. There is little that isn’t interesting and little escapes its attention. Air sign Gemini is Mercury’s first sign, and Earthy Virgo is Mercury’s second sign that focuses on details, looks for perfection, expertly organizes and applies the data Gemini secures, is semi grounded! Both are known to be ultra busy! Gemini listens fast, often replies while you are still speaking! Virgo writes the book, organizes the finances, won’t go home, just has one more detail to finesse, worries about her and your health. They are quite different, you see.

Mercury Rx is don’t sign those papers about issues of the sign(s) Mercury is retrograde in! Or, do everything to make it possible so it doesn’t fall through. Escrows can fall through. Use experienced brokers who can get it done no matter what. People don’t return your calls. The dog ate it. Your computer has a snit. Or you do, LOL! You lose your cell. You get lost, turned around. Rule is be sure purchases are from reputable firms that have been around, have a good track record, have reliable returns/guarantees/warranties. Be sure the company is legitimate before you deal. Date and sign any contract changes and make sure they do too. Get/make copies, save and backup. Generally, you avoid making significant purchases/decisions especially of matters specific to the sign/s involved. If possible, don’t move or change or start jobs until you wait 4 days after Mercury turns Direct/forward.

The house/s where Mercury falls in your chart while it is retrograde is the area of your life that will be specially affected. Briefly: If it is in your 4th, it is home and family matters, your Mother. If in your 2nd or 8th, financial adjustments will be made. 6th can be work environment, skills, coworkers, your health regime. 5/7/8 houses can be important relationships. 3/9 is educational, class requirements may shift. 9 is long term plans, travels. 10 may be career, father, 11 career associations/associates, friendships. 12 may be your spiritual beliefs, perceptions. So for example, if in your 10th, be cautious about signing professional documents. If in your 4th, you may opt to wait to buy the new refrigerator – a better deal or fridge may come along. In the 1st or 3rd you might wait to purchase a new vehicle. In 2 or 7, wait for the face lift. If you need help with this, see your astrologer!

Inner planet – Mercury, Venus, Mars – retrogrades have three phase cycles. Sometimes outer planets have five and take 3 years! Sun and Moon have none. Astrologers use different names for the 3 phases. Basically they are:

  1. Covering the initial ground, degrees that the retrograde will go back over when the planet ‘turns’ retrograde.
  2. Retrograde covers the same degrees as Phase 1, only in the reverse direction, so your perspective takes a 180 shift while other planets continue on in their own patterns, many of them moving forward. While retrograde the planet checks on previous actions, improving on, updating choices made as it goes back.
  3. The planet turns ‘forward,’ and goes over the same degrees a third time, adds finishing touches, makes experienced final adjustments before it moves on.

Stations bring special emphasis! A Station is when a planet literally appears to stand still in the sky at the retrograde and direct/forward turning points. Stations help us slow down. A Mercury station holds consciousness at a certain point for 8 days. They are a pause when we are able to be still to receive, focus, take time to think, steep in our thinking. We make things the best we can, anchor important ideas we want to keep. The longer the station, the more its strength. Mercury sometimes likes to think things over, draw as much from a valuable experience as possible, or get to know a special person more deeply. More often, it is likely to go crazy waiting for more things to happen and wants to be the first to deliver the news! They may need to rest at the station because a lot has been changing. It can be a relief to take a breather from the rigors of speeding here and there so they don’t miss a morsel!

Planets at different speeds hold station different lengths of time. Mercury stations are about 8 days – four days before and four days after the turns. Prepare for retrogrades as best you can before the Retrograde Station starts! When Mercury turns forward, wait for the Direct Station to finish before turning yourself loose to go ahead.

Every Retrograde is unique by sign, aspects, and where it happens in your chart! As time goes on the planetary backdrop changes. Context shifts. Retrogrades, like any other astro phenomena, evolve. Each planet has its own matters. The sign(s) it is in while in retrograde, are how those matters are applied, which matters are processed.

In retrogrades we may be at another stage or encounter an addition to something already going on in our personal chart. Also, the degrees of this retrograde have to be in connection with your personal chart or it will have little to no effect. There can be a turning away from things we are done with that we never thought we would change about, yet here it happens…old ideas are simply abandoned. Just done.

Sometimes retrogrades cross Portals, where sign, or personally in your own chart, house changes happen! As the cycle goes forward, retrograde, then forward again, we learn how to make that particular crossing. Gradually we see how those two signs are linked, work together, support/lead each other. How each sign is a foundation for the next and the one ahead leads us from the past into new experiences! We see the contribution of each sign, how they each are part of the Zodiacal Great Circle. Be mindful of your own talent, offer it. Be mindful of what others have to offer, be grateful. You may not like them, but we can’t do without their part of the divine tapestry, the Light they hold at that crossroads or as they lead.

What a journey! When you are traveling, what amazing beauty lies around each new bend. Different directions, different views. Maybe what’s behind is out of sight, a memory; what’s ahead is a mystery! Inward turns, like retrograde, give us time to pause, hold steady, slow down. Outward bends like turning forward/Direct, extend our vision of potentials. Each turn, that Station, gives us time to think, recalibrate, prepare for the next stretch. It’s important that there are changes, reversals, old ideas that clogged things up are left behind, revelations have room to occur, new ideas are teased into action! Potential is remembered or revealed and we are rededicated.

Clearly life doesn’t stop during retrogrades, and not all people’s charts are connected to all retrogrades. If your chart is connected to any given one, you will need to do your best and what you can. You can’t explain this astrological stuff to all people, maybe not your boss or even a good friend. Astrology? You’re nuts! Ok, so there are times to find ways to stall or not connect, delay. You can estimate the possibilities of others not bringing certain papers to the meeting and bring them yourself, save the day! You can ask for a review of the current decisions 4 days or more after Mercury goes Direct/forward. If there are important must do meetings, Dr and Veterinarian appts, call in advance to verify that the date and right time are on their calendars AND yours! Verify that part you ordered IS ordered, being sent to the correct address, the expected arrival date! Know that it might be late. Keep track of keys, wallets/purses, phones.

Document your work and events daily, save ALL emails and backup safely off the premises. No giving your passwords or copies of keys to anyone. If all goes well, fine. If not, all the pertinent information you need is available.

If you have other favorable prevailing aspects, especially with outer planets, it is likely changes will ultimately be to your benefit. Do check with your astrologer for your good dates and times of day to make the best of it! And pray their chart isn’t affected by the retrograde, LOL!

With a transiting Retrograde, if you have factors in your chart at or very close to those degrees, especially at the station degrees, you will be activated. Check in with your astrologer if you have significant plans at those times. Plan ahead for what you want to get done, as much as possible, well before those times, and line up what you can do during those times!

Classically, marriages are not scheduled during retrogrades, especially double retrogrades. The most common doubles are Mercury with Venus or Mars. Mercury is contracts. Venus is love and money. Mars is sex and independence. Hmm… Mercury can have a short attention span in some signs. Nonjudgmental communications are vital in relationships, to keep up with each other’s thinking, to allow for change. Listening is a cherished skill to balance daily sharing. Venus is love, affection, admiration, the grace of expressing appreciation, giving blessings and gratitude, important values. Mars is what we do for each other, being there, working together, times of passion, a shared exuberance of life together, mutual inspiration! If even one, sometimes some, of these basic components to a relationship changes, it can be the deal breaker. We choose relationships for the important things in life. Remember, transiting retrogrades or a RX combo, come and go, but if they are in the marriage chart they are there forever. It is the birth chart of your marriage. If a transiting retrograde activates the marriage retrograde(s), it can be a vulnerable time, even more so if it activates one or both of each of your natal chart retros if you have one/them.   

Some relationships are matters of the Soul’s growth and will happen no matter what for better or worse. They happen perhaps due to a ‘karmic’ debt, are for us to learn humility/compassion as we learn how to deal with differences, strengthen us to make personal change – and so many more possibilities.

Check with your astrologer. First be sure your own natal charts indicate your ability or likelihood to enjoy relationships at all. Check if basic compatibility is in especially good order. If that is good, be very careful with those wedding plans. Look ahead for timing that may be better for you. Remember, we are proposing a lifelong relationship. That is worth waiting for the very best chart. Be wise and wait if possible. A marriage chart is like a birth chart; it is with you the rest of your marriage.

Yes, there are times when it is not possible to wait. Still check for the best available chart within the time frame available. A simple thing like the Moon changing signs or houses can make a big difference. Moon changes sign every 2 1/4 to 2.5 days. Sometimes just waiting a few minutes or an hour can make a significant difference!

Retrogrades can drive you crazy and still be a terrific asset if you know how to use them!

Partial Solar Eclipse New Moon October 25!
Total Taurus-Scorpio Lunar Eclipse Full Beaver Moon November 8!.


Scorpio Partial Solar Eclipse New Moon!

Tuesday Oct 25 Solar Eclipse New Moon at 2 Scorpio 00, 3:45 AM Pacific 

Challenges, Breakthroughs, Healings and Blessings!

Scorpio 2022 Partial Solar Eclipse New Moon!

The solar eclipse of October 25, 2022 is a partial solar eclipse not visible in the US! Depending on where you are, it can be a bite, a ‘Diamond ring,’ or if total, a perfect halo!  Use Eclipse glasses for viewing safely!Since the Solar Eclipse New Moon is not visible in the US, that locally leaves us with a super dark Moonless night, Moon new at only 2 Scorpio! It is the Great Mystery setting the scene for Jupiter retrograde returning briefly to mystic Pisces the sign of Dreams, Oct 27 to Dec 20! Jupiter has been in Aries, the action sign, now going back to get more dream inspiration, to be sure the dreams are being faithfully inaugurated, update to the latest visions. Jupiter Aries   Jupiter Pisces

Jupiter, planet of education, perspective and international travel, is offering boundless choices, calling on faith and trust to carry them onward. In Aries he has insisted on new adventures, pushing aside antiquated thinking in favor of fresh solutions that bring exciting change for better living. In Pisces he draws us to spiritual considerations, living for cause, being more musical and artistic, making films to inspire our dreams! So retrograde back into Pisces for a Soul battery charge, then back into Aries to make the dreams come true!

Moon, Sun and Venus, ALL at 2°, have just passed an inconjunct with Jupiter, so we are all tuned in to the adventure! Scorpio may be just a little more peppy and out the Truth, a rare thing for the SecretKeeper to do! But it is time, apparently. Feminine Moon and Venus are conjunct, exact only 3 hours later. Moon has her blessing. Sun is slower than Venus and though they travel very closely for several days no conjunction is made with Venus until in Leo August 2023! Sun is influenced, and charmed, of course, but they don’t personally connect. She is faster, leaves him.

Mercury is in Libra, Venus’s second sign, so there may be some papers to be signed, legal and contractual, regarding Scorpio matters. With Mercury also recently being trine Saturn in Aquarius, they want to formalize the agreements among all concerned. The next day Mercury will trine fast Mars in Gemini, papers and signing contracts, so there is a sense of urgency. It’s not just chat, but relationships, possibly custody matters, and business involved.

Mars recently squared Neptune and stumbled on some ‘hidden’ information that matters. It needs to be brought up, resolved, put to bed. Mercury is inconjunct Neptune, so has been obliquely interested in related information. Mars is about to Retrograde, closely inconjunct Pluto, but they don’t make the exact aspect as Mars turns back. He has been tracking Pluto, was about to come to some conclusions, but the data is left in the archives for now. In Gemini, Mars is as quick and quiet as a butterfly, snatching glances of goings on. He gets away with learning things no one else could. He has to think it over. Mercury is about to square Pluto, Scorpio’s planet. It is hard to avoid Mercury in Libra’s curiosity about relationships, personal or monetary. Pluto in Capricorn has a formidable financial structure, long time politically powerful people around him, likely including his own Father. Mess with him? He resents his privacy being invaded. As an investigative reporter, Mercury may need to be a little more cautious than usual and a lot respectful, or may be in trouble himself! Sadly, unforgivable bitter hate resulting in a long term modern feud could be instigated, each one feeling justified.

Now, on the other hand, if such a thing has been happening, there is a possibility, through Mercury’s mediation skills, some clarity could come to pass, the feud unraveled after a long time, a remarkable renewal of kinship achieved. Be careful for everyone’s safety, emotionally and otherwise, especially for the children.

If there are kindly secrets you are keeping, keep them. No gossiping with anyone. No impressing anyone with things you know. Some things are better left to quietly fade into the past with no harm done.

There is a Grand Air trine with Saturn, Mercury and Mars, but it is passing. The only part of it still upcoming is Mercury trining Mars! This may be the link that saves the day from their two squares, with Neptune, with Pluto. Mercury has the information, tries to be polite, which may not be comforting if he is the opposing lawyer. Mars in Gemini has the latest info. He just busts in and tells it like it is. Here are the facts, get over it and get going! Sometimes that is what it takes. Get to the point. It comes out so cleanly, people just get it.

The last part of this configuration, the anchor aspect, is the Neptune sextile Pluto. They are closely sextile, as they have been, off and on for many years and will be still for another 10 years! Jamie Partridge refers to them as ‘an inter-generational planetary aspect lasting from 1950 to 2032.’ They are the planets of Scorpio and Pisces, both psychic, and have been reading each other continuously. In fact we could almost read them as one planet. It’s like the long Chiron connection that happened with Uranus. Uranus has become more shamanistic at a humanitarian scale. Chiron has become more humanistic in his healing and teaching. So Pluto has become more empathic, not just the observer shaman, but Soul worker. Neptune has become more aware it’s not just spiritual principles, sitting in meditation, but real human suffering needs to be addressed specifically, person by person. We need a name for special years long aspects like this, having such duration and depth of passage.

Over the years Neptune and Pluto have changed signs together! Pluto is a shamanic healer, has to do with life, Kundalini, sex, lifelong relationships, cleansing and detoxing, big money, research, and death. Pluto is not fainthearted. Danger is fascinating and comes in many forms. Dying to life is the game. The Great Mystery and revelation hold their attention. Fathomless Neptune is his friend. Neptune’s imagination and dreams know no bounds. Here is a worthy companion for one as intense as Pluto. Neptune can always read Pluto, but Pluto can’t always read as far as Neptune’s visions go! That is rare, so Pluto is always interested as he tries to decipher the code when there really isn’t one, LOL! Neptune heals the healer and Pluto wants to know how! They are powerful together and are both comfortable and wary of each other at the same time. Neither one knows the entirety of themselves. There is always an unpredictable element and they like it that way. They are elementally creative!

The formation among Mercury, Mars and Neptune, Pluto, is a Trapezoid, called by some an Iron Butterfly. Iron Butterfly is an American rock band, formed in San Diego, California in 1966. They are best known for the 1968 hit “In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida”, providing a dramatic sound that led the way towards the development of hard rock and heavy metal music. There was a short version and a 17 minute long version that was often played on the radio at the time. The music, name and singing were unique.

An iron butterfly is a uniquely financially complicated options trade. It uses four different contracts as part of a strategy to benefit from stocks or futures prices that move within a defined range. The trade is also constructed to benefit from a decline in implied volatility.

Iron Butterfly also refers to a strong business woman, a type of sex act, a rock climbing route on Windtower, a mountain in Alberta, Canada, more! The band chose the name because it was ‘weighty and happy-go-lucky, and came up with a contradiction in terms.’ Take your pick or choose them all, but know that one symbolic intent is to cover your losses!

Saturn square Uranus is still operating and kind of is an Iron Butterfly all its own! Generally conservative Saturn has a weighty rep even in airy Aquarius and you can’t tame Aquarius’ air planet Uranus even though it is in earthy Taurus! It’s a challenge to manage these two. But it has worked climate change and Saturn is doing his best to get the troops onboard for major world causes. He is harnessing the power of group action and groups collaboration. Only Master Saturn could successfully coordinate them. He has unsurpassed efficiency and an extraordinary sense of timing, recognizes the signs of the times. Uranus/Aquarius are famed for genius of all kinds – research of all kinds including medical, mental, invention, space travel, mass weather patterns, electronics, the Internet, robotics, self driving vehicles, eBikes, mobile phones, clones and on and on.

Saturn and Uranus have been working out challenges of timing and infrastructures to make major changes possible. Things as simple as eBikes have been up for perusal. The pandemic has brought lower incomes for many. There have been high gas prices and global warming, so eBikes can be part of the answer. But what about those batteries?! They have started fires and now people are thinking ahead, what about recycling the batteries?! It’s good to see people thinking ahead. People have been at home a lot, have had time to research and think in the course of searching for new jobs. New jobs have been created! Uranus is on the cutting edge, Saturn wants to be ultimately useful! Both are scientifically and research inclined; Uranus is inventive! Old patterns are being broken. We are waking up! See more about Saturn square Uranus

Chiron and Moon’s North Node are in neighboring Aries and Taurus. North Node and Uranus will soon be parting company as the Node always retrogrades through the signs on a 19 year cycle. Per Meghan Rose the conjunction happens approximately every 15 years, but it happens in the sign of Taurus only once in a lifetime—the next occurrence isn’t until 2357! Chiron is spicy hot in Aries, wanting healing solutions NOW for everything. There are people in labs all over the world working for cures and researching healing techniques, diets, herbal and chemical re balancing, DNA, genetics…whatever they can! The NN in Taurus is calling for a natural earthy component like finding out there are things in soil that stimulate our bodies to heal ~ so garden! Touching the earth, hugs, massage, exercise, yoga, breathing clean air, drinking clean water, having and loving pets, simple things, all matter. Taking time for friendship and Peace every day restores our well being and we sleep contentedly.

Pluto, Fixed Star Algol and the Galactic Center!

Pluto 26 Capricorn, Fixed Star Algol 26 TAURUS and the Galactic Center 27 Sagittarius!

Algol has the baddest rep of all the fixed stars. On the dark side, ‘It causes misfortune, violence, decapitation, hanging, electrocution and mob violence, and gives a dogged and violent nature that causes death to the native or others. It is the most evil star in the heavens.’ Some say it’s not the ‘bad’ within us but pushing through blockages to the beauty beyond is what really matters. We can face our demons with sincere intent and life changes for the better! See more! As an individual event, things may not go well at all. If her feminine power force is called on as an ally, she may save your life or protect the Galactic Center from intruders!  

Algol and the Galactic Center are in lockstep! Each being star factors, they each take 72 years to move a degree. Currently Algol is at 26 TAURUS and the GC is 27 Sag. Whenever one is activated, they both are. Algol and the GC have an oblique position (inconjunct), aware, but out of the corner of your eye. That position is common in the charts of psychics. They ‘see’ peripheral factors that influence the outcome. Inconjuncts sometimes lead you on a goose chase, but maybe to greener pastures. You do get a greater perspective. Even if you go back home, you are different. You have perhaps made new friends and associates that can carry that sector for you, or be a link to that sector when you need it. Excellent adjustments are in the offing. Destination Algol would not usually be a conscious choice, but sometimes it is part of our Path and it just happens. Square your shoulders and do it, eyes wide open. Fascinating encounter.

The profound Galactic Center is in fiery Sagittarius, the sign between Scorpio and Capricorn. I imagine the GC is probably enjoying lots of laughs and adventure stories beyond our imagination! The Great Educator sends rays and bolts of information we are barely capable of downloading let alone understand, and it’s not on anyone’s schedule! The GC is the center of our Milky Way, a monumental power center encompassing huge knowledge. Sagittarius is the Teacher, traveler of the cosmos across dimensions beyond our understanding, yet it exists and we have access. The GC Stars send Light from aeons away, a subtle light, but perhaps even more potent because we can’t ‘see’ it and so don’t fight it. If your chart factors link up, you may find yourself having insights, both enlightening and perverse. We may know there have been consequences we didn’t realize. Some self forgiveness may be in order, apologies as appropriate. The Galactic Center offers stunning options in the magnitude of billions of stars, galaxies upon galaxies! More on the Galactic Center!

Capricorn is hosting Pluto. Pluto is trine Algol in Taurus and semi sextile The Galactic Center, piloting the whole scenario of these three powerful factors. By nature he is a no nonsense old Master and gives orders, expecting things to get done. All these three have street creds and are impressive. Capricorn has hung out with the best and functions well at this level. He treats them more equally both to himself and each other. It’s his job.

Pluto is now at 26° Capricorn and moves only 3° a year. Pluto retrogrades back and forth through the degrees as it travels Capricorn. Allowing a 3 degree range, anytime Pluto is between 23 Cap 27 to 29 Cap 27, it will trine Algol at 26 Taurus 27. That period started Feb 2020 – virus time, and will go through Jan 2024. It is now continuously trine Algol. Exact trines are formed 5 times: on Spring Equinox Mar 20, & June 5, 2021, and in 2022 Jan 17, 2022, Aug 29, Nov 16. Pluto trine Algol

Pluto is an exceptionally powerful planet, so is quite comfy with the great forces! In Capricorn he is with the Masters, ones who rule kingdoms and the planet. Capricorn is a realist and Pluto a profound healer. They, Pluto, Algol, and the Galactic Center, see the times that are coming and are preparing the way for Pluto’s entry into Aquarius in 2023. For 21 years he will be called to apply his great strength in behalf of humanity.

Since Mars is 25 Gemini he is semisextile Algol and opposite the Galactic Center! A semisextile is not usually considered much, but Mars is in step with Algol, leading out information gleaned. Sign to sign always has a special step by step component. They know each other. He has ideas that Algol can’t do himself. Mars can shelter powerful concepts in the Gemini butterfly valence, express them in a varied way, flexibly to match the attention and capacity of the listener. He has a light touch in air sign Gemini.

Opposite the Galactic Center, Mars might still feel a little too close, his wings singed! Yet he has a huge capacity to take in information and he tells the stories tirelessly, his ‘wings’ fanning them right out into the ethers where anyone can listen! The GC laughs with happiness and mercilessly keeps sending anything and everything! This full blown grand barrage puts a lot of things into perspective for Mars and he is even more intrigued! It’s not just information this time, but is meaningful!

Neptune is at 23 Pisces sextile Algol, square the Galactic Center! The divine order is awry, and even a positive sextile with Algol can be a daunting affair. Can you trust her?! If she uses her miraculous feminine super powers some mighty saves may happen. Square the GC, Neptune, generally an open channel, may be overwhelmed, a rare thing to happen to Neptune, but the Dreamtime will be well stocked for a long time to come! With Neptune’s sextile to Pluto, there will be powerful releases from time to time that will influence Pluto’s phenomenal expression in Aquarius starting March 2023! Neptune’s great visions may prove to hold extraordinary keys.

Special Eclipse Reminder! April 8, 2024 Total Solar Eclipse: this path will stretch from central Texas to northern New England. The duration of totality will average just under 4 minutes (4 minutes 27 seconds in Texas). Interestingly, the path of totality will again encompass Carbondale, Illinois. Carbondale is on the center-line of the path of totality and will see 4 minutes and 9 seconds of totality for eclipse 2024, nearly double what was seen in 2017. Many locations were booked for the 2024 eclipse in 2017! Make your reservations ASAP!

We are emerging from the Halloween connections with the Ancestors. Use their Wisdom!

2022 Taurus - Scorpio Total Lunar Eclipse Full Beaver Moon! Shaun Tarpley in League City, Texas

Shaun Tarpley in League City, Texas, captured an incredibly vibrant shot of the lunar eclipse on May 15, 2022! In a total lunar eclipse, the Earth’s shadow completely covers the Moon, turning it a coppery shade of red, sometimes known as a “Blood Moon.

Jupiter is setting a new tone now that he is back in Pisces! Forget the Aries push, we’re back in the Dreamtime! This is only a brief review, Oct 27 to Dec 20. Jupiter spends only less than 2 degrees in Pisces, but they are potently the last 2 degrees of Pisces, 28 and 29, the most mature degrees! The conclusions of Jupiter’s last stay in Pisces are reconsidered. We are being certain not to neglect, but to truly follow their mandates. Time to re experience, live Pisces’ deepest intent. Jupiter loves Pisces sports, the open seas, gallant schooners, mighty cruise ships and all their games and entertainment, seaside businesses, and storytelling with a pint or two! Soul pleasing causes of great merit, faithfully restoring the reefs, saving seaweed, otters whales and dolphins and mermaids makes natural harmony. They are treasures of connection. The magic, an underwater temple, spiritual understanding draw them to higher solace, meaningful encounters, life changing music and films, your very Soul, dharma, the work of your life, make a profound difference. Remember. Jupiter Pisces

Just a little intensity! Full Moons are always Moon opposite Sun, but this time Moon is conjunct, SAME DEGREE wild card Uranus in Taurus. Not exactly peace in the valley, but there is some unity of purpose and it is a bit karmic with Moon and Uranus just past Moon’s own North Node! This special connection, the True North Node with Uranus, is every 15 years! It always skips a sign. This year’s slow moving conjunction is continuous June 7 through Nov 15! It emphasizes the Earth Changes we are experiencing and how our friendships are being organically assessed for long term true values, whether our networks are effective. See the list and more at Cafe Astrology! Uranus wants to break free, but is retrograde, can’t leave yet, and in Taurus, there is an earthy connection that tends to keep even the greatest freedom lovers in place.

Opposite, Mercury is immanently to conjunct Sun in Scorpio and he is still close with Venus! They are closely confiding with each other. Taurus and Scorpio are what we astrologers call fixed signs. Their matters often go on for years. They are determined. Yet Uranus is unpredictable no matter what sign he is in, and so changeable that plans better be flexible in spite of dedication!

Full Moon axis, Five planet fixed T Square! Moon, Uranus and Mercury, Sun, all four, are square Saturn, and Venus just was! Saturn, may be the surprising mediator! He wants all to take their appropriate responsibility for their contributions. But he is in Aquarius, Uranus’s sign, the genius networker and change maker, so he hankers for a little freedom too! Saturn is a smart builder, wants to put all those Souls together, their ideas, talents, and get it on in a timely fashion! He is a bit scientific, just like inventive Aquarius, so understands why Aquarius is unpredictable as discoveries emerge!

Squares have a rep for being challenging, and with this many involved, Saturn will have to be on his toes every minute! All of them in fixed signs can be stubborn, each in his own way. It’s going to take some delicate navigation. Taurus can be patient, but he believes what is his, is his, no discussion. Scorpio can be revengeful if he feels wronged, and he won’t share some important details, or the money!  Aquarius can be maddeningly unaccountable, simply forgetting appointments, not remembering your birthday or other important dates. The ultimate positive of Fixed Signs is stabilizing and anchoring the best they have to give!

  • Moon of Cancer is opposite Saturn of Capricorn! Moon is nurturing, intuitive. Saturn is hard edged and busy working, no time for family! Moon is considering a fling with a friend. She or the kids are moving to a more remote location or a city. Housing is changing. Moon square Saturn is more likely to break through. Moon and Aquarius both rule community, just different sizes, local to planetary! Taurus and Saturn are both earthy, Simple and practical. There may be just enough mutuality to bring them to a long standing favorable agreement.
  • Uranus wants freedom and Saturn calls him to task. Scorpio is unsettled by sudden Aquarius/Uranian shifts to unknown territories. Mercury is intrigued, maybe a little worried. No matter how cleverly he lines up the gang, things are happening fast and adaptability is not the trademark of this T Square.
  • Mercury is chatty, but in Scorpio won’t gossip and listens keenly, every sense alert. Saturn wants to know what’s going on and how much it will cost, how long it will take. They may not be inclined to be friendly, but mutual purpose may bring them together.
  • Sun in Scorpio wants his privacy, has his personal agenda. Saturn says but you have to tell ME so I can keep the group’s purpose in a good way. Saturn wants Sun to meet with the group and at first, Sun says no, no, no! He needs some oil for his social hinges.
  • Venus tries to pave the way for Sun, might work. She has the grace and knows how to negotiate dangerous waters, to save both Saturn and Pluto any embarrassments. Venus is shrewd in Scorpio and sees Saturn’s need to bring them together. She may have to school him in how to make his ‘requests’ more palatable. She is the planet of Taurus, so reminding of common values may serve to keep everyone calm and listening. The other feminine force, Moon, may unhurriedly serve a homemade meal of fresh organic food in ample amounts, special tasty desert to follow.

The North Node is near Mother Moon and Uranus, but the Node’s motion is always retrograde in general. They are all parting with a memory. Most important may be the needs of children. The NN has reminded them of Taurus earth/climate matters, their own body’s needs, long term values, making beauty as you go.

Offsetting the T Square, the Scorpio trio is trine Master Neptune! They bring their best to honor him. He is the Magician, Spirit Master, Soul See-er, in his own sign Pisces. Mercury comes to query, help heal, clear the Mind. Sun offers his treasured Light, tempered by the tests he has met and survived at the deepest dark levels. He comes to heal and cleanse the emotions and tempers of pain. Venus brings a heart of beauty that glows radiantly within her. She gives an ecstatic pure love that softens our very Being. Neptune has eternally  worked so hard, is so grateful.

Neptune receives them all. He is the summary of all the signs and their related planets. He absorbs them, mercifully knows them and bestows a gift to each, and his blessings that will sustain them as needed. He honors their vision quests, each with a special Dream best suited at this time to their divine Path.

Still at 25° in Retrograde Station, Mars is now Retrograde in Gemini, in pause, focus, reviewing his thoughts and actions. He breathes the Word, his most important findings will be upgraded as he approaches them from this new direction. Some is frustrating, while having to re do things, yet better options may be offered. This time he has some of Pluto’s power glow with him. Pluto in Capricorn says dig deeper, know that it takes the time it takes. It’s not just facts, but facts about people that affect their lives. Lives can be healed by what you know and what you do about it.

Mars will retrograde back to his second square with Neptune Nov 19. There will be times of being lost and happily so, wandering freely, seeing a great variety of unplanned things, both fearful and delighted! The imagination has free play and Neptune can insert magical thoughts in vulnerable moments or moments when our mind is open! The amazing interplay makes Mars even more curious in Gemini! Gemini is usually logical, but a lot more than logic is discovered! There is level on level, directions not known to a mere compass! Mars easily gets bored, loves what’s new. Bring it on, just give me a moment to get used to it!

Of the first Mars square Neptune I wrote: Mars may seem to have moments of confusion due to his immanent square with Neptune in Pisces Tuesday the 11th. He could get lost. Mars is already spread pretty thin at times with the myriads of possibilities in Gemini. He needs to stop and re prioritize to keep the cause in mind. Neptune is the infinite of the dreamtime, the collective of all being. Some is real, some imaginative, creative! The spiritual cause is to develop empathy, compassion. And that takes a few moments to get the kitten out of the road, the child safely home to mum. Mars can be racing along and have an insight that stops him in his tracks and all of a sudden his direction is changed, maybe even his life, forever! We may never see him again. Or, the whole thing becomes real, when before it was simply exciting. Now it is personally encompassing!

Chiron in Aries has a small complex set. He is in Mars’ sign, so they have scent of each other and watch to see what and how the other is doing. The North Node is semisextile, neighboring signs with Chiron. The NN in Taurus has been with Uranus, making sweeping changes, pushing progress and innovation! Chiron in Aries has been arousing interest in new kinds of medicine, innovative teaching. They like these new times! Mercury is just past an inconjunct with Chiron and because Mercury is right with Sun, Sun is included too. Mercury wanted a word, and Chiron in Aries is more than obliging! In Scorpio, Mercury and Sun can both see the super potential Chiron is offering! They and the Uranus/North Node combination are making Chiron think about how to get the word out to more right places, get funding and the research going out further.

The Saturn square Uranus is separating now. They are leaving an intense legacy behind. As said before, they have been working out challenges of timing and infrastructures to make major changes possible. Things as simple as eBikes have been up for perusal. The pandemic has brought lower incomes for many. There have been high gas prices and global warming, so eBikes can be part of the answer. But what about those batteries?! They have started fires and now people are thinking ahead, what about recycling the batteries?! It’s good to see people thinking ahead. People have been at home a lot, have had time to research and think in the course of searching for new jobs. New jobs have been created! Uranus is on the cutting edge; Saturn wants to be ultimately useful! Both are scientifically and research inclined; Uranus is inventive! Old patterns are being broken. We are waking up! See more about Saturn square Uranus

The Fixed Stars, Galactic Center/GC, and Pluto!

Neptune 22 Pisces and Pluto, 26 Capricorn continue to activate major fixed star Algol 26 Taurus and the Galactic Center at 27 Sagittarius.

Pluto moves only 3° a year, retrograding back and forth through the degrees as it travels Capricorn. Allowing a 3 degree range, anytime Pluto is between 23 Cap 27 to 29 Cap 27, it will trine fixed star Algol at 26 Taurus 27. That period started Feb 2020 – virus time, and will go through Jan 2024. It is now continuously trine Algol. Exact trines are formed 5 times: on Spring Equinox Mar 20, & June 5, 2021, and in 2022 Jan 17, 2022, Aug 29, Nov 16. Pluto trine Algol

The GC is the center of our Milky Way, a monumental power center encompassing huge knowledge. Sagittarius is the Teacher, traveler of the cosmos across dimensions beyond our understanding, yet it exists and we have access. The GC Stars send Light from aeons away, a subtle light, but perhaps even more potent because we can’t ‘see’ it and don’t fight or try to analyze it. If your chart factors link up, you may find yourself having insights, both enlightening and perverse.

The Galactic Center offers accessing stunning options in the magnitude of billions of stars, galaxies upon galaxies! We may only get inklings, impressions, but go for the most potent long term options you can conceive of. They are stepping stones to even greater options to come. Stretch, reach out of the box! Hang on and pull yourself up! There will be spirits out there reaching to help you along! More on the Galactic Center!

Mars, still in station at 25 Gemini, is semisextile Algol and opposite the Galactic Center! A semisextile is not usually considered much, but Mars is about to be in step with Algol, and lead out information gleaned. Sign to sign always has a special step by step component. They know each other. He has ideas that Algol can’t do himself. Mars can shelter powerful concepts in the Gemini butterfly valence, express them in a varied way, flexibly to match the attention and capacity of the listener. He has a light touch in air sign Gemini.

Opposite the Galactic Center, Mars might still feel a little too close, his wings singed! Yet he has a huge capacity to take in information and he tells the stories tirelessly, his ‘wings’ fanning them right out into the ethers where anyone can listen! The GC laughs with happiness and mercilessly keeps sending anything and everything! This full blown grand barrage puts a lot of things into perspective for Mars and he is even more intrigued! It’s not just information this time, but is meaningful!

Neptune is at 23 Pisces sextile Algol, square the Galactic Center! The divine order is awry, and even a positive sextile with Algol can be a daunting affair. Can you trust her?! If she uses her miraculous feminine super powers some mighty saves may happen. Square the GC, Neptune, generally an open channel, may be overwhelmed, a rare thing to happen to Neptune, but the Dreamtime will be well stocked for a long time to come! With Neptune’s sextile to Pluto, there will be powerful releases from time to time that will influence Pluto’s phenomenal expression in Aquarius starting March 2023! Neptune’s great visions may prove to hold extraordinary keys.

March 23, 2023 Pluto enters Aquarius, a 248 year event! Now through 2044, 21 years, there will be significant world changes. Right now is the time to be strengthening our Aquarian and Uranian people, those factors in our own charts!

Special Eclipse Reminder! April 8, 2024 Total Solar Eclipse: this path will stretch from central Texas to northern New England. The duration of totality will average just under 4 minutes (4 minutes 27 seconds in Texas). Interestingly, the path of totality will again encompass Carbondale, Illinois. Carbondale is on the center-line of the path of totality and will see 4 minutes and 9 seconds of totality for eclipse 2024, nearly double what was seen in 2017. Many locations were booked for the 2024 eclipse in 2017! Make your reservations ASAP!

New Moon September 25!
Aries-Libra Full Hunter’s Moon October 9!.


Libra New Moon!

Sunday September 25, 2:55 PM Pacific at 2 Libra 49

New relationships are in the wind! There are fine opportunities available!

Libra 2022 New Moon Stargazing near Mauna Kea, HI!

Stargazing near Mauna Kea! The Big Island of Hawaii has so many highlights, it can be hard to fit them all into just one day. For travelers short on time, this Big Island twilight volcano tour is the perfect guided experience. 

Moon and Sun are arms-over-each-other’s-shoulders perusing the beautiful sights at the Botanic Garden, scanning the details at the art museum, watching the sacred ceremony, or a great courtroom movie with friends, attending a gathering! Moon is sure the most favorite fine foods are available, including some unusual cultural dishes. Father Sun is or brought the photographer along to document the festivities! He is a most gracious host.

Jupiter, planet of education, perspective and international travel, is expanding their choices, calling on faith and trust to carry them onward. In Aries he may be insisting on new adventures, pushing aside antiquated thinking in favor of fresh solutions that bring exciting change for better living. Moon and Sun are delighted at the lucky offerings coming their way, negotiating their part to play.

Venus, the planet of Libra, and retrograde Mercury, both in Virgo, are just behind the New Moon checking the books for financial standing, to see the research to back up Jupiter’s claims, talk with experts. They are looking at what new infrastructures are called for, and adding up costs to see how much is needed to implement the changes. They are quite quality conscious, so want what will really do the job and last. Mercury has already been opposite Jupiter twice and will finish the 3rd aspect October 12. See Mercury Retrograde He has been following Jupiter’s ideas as they have changed. Mercury was opposite Neptune in Pisces Aug 21, and will be very close during his direct station Rx Sep 28 to Oct 5. Mercury will know Neptune’s appraisals, and likely be able to avoid any misconceptions. Venus was opposite Neptune the 24th, the day before our New Moon. In Virgo she has keen scrutiny for details of values and Neptune has deep instinct for unseen facets, especially whether it is spiritually meaningful and lasting or simply a bit of fun.

Not only are Venus and Mercury enjoying each other’s expertise, but they are in a super trine, the most favorable aspect, with Master Pluto in Capricorn! Pluto is well experienced after 14 years in Capricorn, is looking to long term matters. His sign change into Aquarius in March is immanent and he would like to see significant foundations built to secure progress made, to set us up with a sensible blueprint for coming changes. He is a funds manager, an adept healer who can do planetary renovation. He wants sincere careers with personal integrity true to one’s causes. He has an honorable Patriarchal intent to give us shelter, take care of his family and elders. He’s a hard worker, intense, sometimes obsessed! At times he may be a demanding jealous master, but at all times he wants the best! Pluto is no fool. Eyes open, he can make 180 shifts on a dime, making stunning change in record time! All it takes is one turn of the key in the Capricorn lock! We’ll see what happens while he is leaving Capricorn to enter Aquarius March 2023. There are 6+ months to go.  See more Pluto in Capricorn   In Aquarius

Pluto has had a strong sextile Neptune connection for many years. They are together closely for months at a time. They have a long history, started in 1950! Over the years they have changed signs together! Pluto is a shamanic healer, has to do with life, Kundalini, sex, lifelong relationships, cleansing and detoxing, big money, research, and death. Pluto is not fainthearted. Danger is fascinating and comes in many forms. Dying to life is the game. The Great Mystery and revelation hold their attention. Fathomless Neptune is his friend. Neptune’s imagination and dreams know no bounds. Here is a worthy companion for one as intense as Pluto. Neptune can always read Pluto, but Pluto can’t always read as far as Neptune’s visions go! That is rare, so Pluto is always interested as he tries to decipher the code when there really isn’t one, LOL! Neptune heals the healer and Pluto wants to know how! They are powerful together and are both comfortable and wary of each other at the same time. Neither one knows the entirety of themselves. There is always an unpredictable element and they like it that way. They are elementally creative!

Saturn in Aquarius will soon be at the exact midpoint between Neptune and Pluto!  Might not be the safest place to be, but he is in a position to be a go between and extract valuable knowledge from each. Aquarius is more interested than judgmental, is rarely frightened because AQ is so different it is usually others who are frightened of him! Saturn is not a fainthearted planet either. He wants to harness the talent, takes the best of both and shows them how to use it together. He stands up for his principles against the odds because he has a proven track record of doing the right thing at the right time! The three of them, Pluto, Saturn, and Neptune, are in sequential signs, Capricorn, AQ, Pisces, the last signs of the zodiac. Together they are putting finishing touches on the work at hand, the foundation for the future.

Due to Pluto’s insights with Neptune, and Saturn in planetary Aquarius, Pluto may have the final long term say, but right now, that Venus, Mercury, New Moon foursome has a lot of sway and certainly will bear listening to! They have the technicals and the alliances. Together, all seven of these planets, will ferret out whether the project is truly worthy and doable.

Besides Libra, our chart is a Seesaw type, seeking balance. That Foursome stands away from the main body of the chart, away from all the outer planets, but already we see connections, the opposition/collaboration with Neptune, the trine with Pluto. Pluto is the base planet in the big group. He is caring for any stragglers and pushing with that big will of his to move them all forward. He brooks no time wasting, no foolish flirting, but to stay on track. He heals, reminds them of their purpose and they look to him in sober moments. He can talk with them about anything and they know he will keep confidence. There may be slow times, but they get on.

The lead planet is Mars in Gemini! Dramatic difference, lightens the mood! He leads laughing in the breeze, singing a song at the top of his lungs, shouting we can do it! Why not?! He is coming up to square old spiritual Neptune who also has a few surprises up his sleeve! He may meditate, whisper in the monastery, take silence for long intervals, but when he’s at the rock concert or carrying on a tsunami, making art, it’s a different scenario! He may not approve of Mars’ style, or he may be delighted and dance right along! Mars is certainly inspiring! What stories they can tell!

Uranus is a wild card with them! He’s making life more exotic at the same degree as Mars but from Taurus. The Earth herself is reverberating with electricity, wind, starry nights, people holding hands round the world, passing it all on! The trees and animals, the soil and food chains, water are going through great change. Uranus is backing Mars to lead with powerful planetary insights. It’s exciting to do new fresh things, to be on the forefront, making gallant efforts! Hats off to the team!

Saturn and Uranus have been working out challenges of timing and infrastructures to make major changes possible. Things as simple as eBikes have been up for perusal. The pandemic has brought lower incomes for many. There have been high gas prices and global warming, so eBikes can be part of the answer. But what about those batteries?! They have started fires and now people are thinking ahead, what about recycling the batteries?! It’s good to see people thinking ahead. People have been at home a lot, have had time to research and think in the course of searching for new jobs. New jobs have been created! Uranus is on the cutting edge, Saturn wants to be ultimately useful! Both are scientifically and research inclined; Uranus is inventive! Old patterns are being broken. We are waking up! See more about Saturn square Uranus

New Mars is trining old guardian Saturn. Respectfully considered, listening, will be an efficient way of sharing! If anyone can do Mars’ project from the ground up, it’s Saturn! He can do it with less expense if you are on a budget. He can save you time with his efficiency. He’s a pro. Saturn may be excited to be off on new territory, challenging his skills in new ways with profoundly satisfying outcomes! Have regular meetings. Mars may need curbing, adding too much. He may get off on tangents. Saturn sometimes overbuilds. He surely can want the most exquisite award winning materials at times. You all will need to decide. They may need to wait until prototypes are tested.

The 17th Mars sextiled Chiron in Aries, the Mars sign. Mars trines Saturn the 27/28th. Though Saturn and Chiron are quite a few degrees apart now since their 2021 sextile, they are still close enough to be communicating. Chiron is loosely at the midpoint between them, Mars linking them. Mars is bringing some of their previous work forward. Chiron is a healer with new techniques that work more quickly these days! He sees better ways of making relationships, doing business. Saturn in Aquarius wants to cover much more ground with international collaboration for greater causes than ever before! He is proving his merit and the changes are fast with the Internet! Mars in Gemini covers a flourish of ideas, quickly spreads the word. Everyone gets to try it out in different circumstances, discoveries are made and change begets change! Hang onto your socks! We’re at warp speed, Captain!

Pluto, Fixed Star Algol and the Galactic Center!

Pluto 26 Capricorn, Fixed Star Algol 26 TAURUS and the Galactic Center 27 Sagittarius!

Algol has the baddest rep of all the fixed stars. On the dark side, ‘It causes misfortune, violence, decapitation, hanging, electrocution and mob violence, and gives a dogged and violent nature that causes death to the native or others. It is the most evil star in the heavens.’ Some say it’s not the ‘bad’ within us but pushing through blockages to the beauty beyond is what really matters. We can face our demons with sincere intent and life changes for the better! See more! As an individual event, things may not go well at all. If her feminine power force is called on as an ally, she may save your life or protect the Galactic Center from intruders!  

Algol and the Galactic Center are in lockstep! Each being star factors, they each take 72 years to move a degree. Currently Algol is at 26 TAURUS and the GC is 27 Sag. Whenever one is activated, they both are. Algol and the GC have an oblique position (inconjunct), aware, but out of the corner of your eye. That position is common in the charts of psychics. They ‘see’ peripheral factors that influence the outcome. Inconjuncts sometimes lead you on a goose chase, but maybe to greener pastures. You do get a greater perspective. Even if you go back home, you are different. You have perhaps made new friends and associates that can carry that sector for you, or be a link to that sector when you need it. Excellent adjustments are in the offing. Destination Algol would not usually be a conscious choice, but sometimes it is part of our Path and it just happens. Square your shoulders and do it, eyes wide open. Fascinating encounter.

The profound Galactic Center is in fiery Sagittarius, the sign between Scorpio and Capricorn. I imagine the GC is probably enjoying lots of laughs and adventure stories beyond our imagination! The Great Educator sends rays and bolts of information we are barely capable of downloading let alone understand, and it’s not on anyone’s schedule! The GC is the center of our Milky Way, a monumental power center encompassing huge knowledge. Sagittarius is the Teacher, traveler of the cosmos across dimensions beyond our understanding, yet it exists and we have access. The GC Stars send Light from aeons away, a subtle light, but perhaps even more potent because we can’t ‘see’ it and so don’t fight it. If your chart factors link up, you may find yourself having insights, both enlightening and perverse. We may know there have been consequences we didn’t realize. Some self forgiveness may be in order, apologies as appropriate. The Galactic Center offers stunning options in the magnitude of billions of stars, galaxies upon galaxies! More on the Galactic Center!

Capricorn is hosting Pluto. Pluto is trine Algol in Taurus and semi sextile The Galactic Center, piloting the whole scenario of these three powerful factors. By nature he is a no nonsense old Master and gives orders, expecting things to get done. All these three have street creds and are impressive. Capricorn has hung out with the best and functions well at this level. He treats them more equally both to himself and each other. It’s his job.

Pluto is now at 26° Capricorn and moves only 3° a year. Pluto retrogrades back and forth through the degrees as it travels Capricorn. Allowing a 3 degree range, anytime Pluto is between 23 Cap 27 to 29 Cap 27, it will trine Algol at 26 Taurus 27. That period started Feb 2020 – virus time, and will go through Jan 2024. It is now continuously trine Algol. Exact trines are formed 5 times: on Spring Equinox Mar 20, & June 5, 2021, and in 2022 Jan 17, 2022, Aug 29, Nov 16. Pluto trine Algol

Pluto is an exceptionally powerful planet, so is quite comfy with the great forces! In Capricorn he is with the Masters, ones who rule kingdoms and the planet. Capricorn is a realist and Pluto a profound healer. They, Pluto, Algol, and the Galactic Center, see the times that are coming and are preparing the way for Pluto’s entry into Aquarius in 2023. For 21 years he will be called to apply his great strength in behalf of humanity.

Since Venus is 25 and Mercury 27 Virgo they are both trine Algol! They are no nonsense smart and feminine, so may do quite well with Algol! In challenging square the Galactic Center, they may be overwhelmed with the download, but if anyone can sort it out, they were born to do it! Pluto may have to help and protect them while they work. They need to pay attention to their health, both mental and physical.

We are now more aware that some connections need reworking, fixing, updating. Some ideas have long term implications worth working for, are financially productive, spiritually satisfying! Make notes then network like crazy to get more ideas to complete the package, make it whole, make it known. Select who will work together, and get it rolling! Be relentless! Don’t give up even when it seems bleak. Often much is happening behind the scenes, especially when many people are working for common cause. Collective consciousness is powerful. A lot can be done in a short time.

Neptune is at 23 Pisces sextile Algol, square the Galactic Center! The divine order is awry, and even a positive sextile with Algol can be a daunting affair. Can you trust her?! If she uses her miraculous feminine super powers some mighty saves may happen. Neptune’s great visions may prove to hold extraordinary keys.

New Moon’s by nature start new cycles. Libra changes the qualities of our relationships. That may change who we choose to have relationship with, but ultimately, how we do it is what gives us peace.

Aries – Libra Full Hunter’s Moon!

Sunday October 9, 1:55 PM Pacific at 16 Aries 33

Take a chance! Try a special new adventure with family or new friends!

Aries-Libra 2022 Full Moon Hiking Tour L.L. Bean Discovery Program!

Hunting the Moon! Clouds or no clouds, Full Moons are Fun! Sign up with L.L. Bean Discovery Programs, Full-Moon Hiking Tour – Freeport, Maine

This Full Mother Moon in Aries is not so cuddly, rather wants action, but is inspirational and gets things rolling. S/he has confidence in you and off you go to try some new things together! It’s more physical than plumping up at the restaurant, or it’s a rebellious agreement to do as you wish and you go to that best new one to feast! Librans are known as peacemakers, and in spite of Aries friskiness, Aries knows Libra is smart and considerate, so will listen as long as it’s not an oration, LOL! Aries may be consoled, and is pleased to find a reasonable middle ground he is comfortable with.

Feisty fiery Aries Moon opposes more cordial, sometimes genteel, Libra Sun. Aries might jump ahead of you in line, or rush you when he’s on a mission. Libra would usually ask, Pardon me, or use the law if a serious matter. Either one can give you a fight. Both may stand up for rights. Aries will take physical action where Libra states the necessary steps on paper and has the Marshall back him up if needed. Aries is known for independence and initiative, where Libra has allies he consults with for the best solution for all. Aries wants it now. Libra will politely wait if there is time. When working together they can have you in a crossfire! With Aries courage, Libra strategies are put into play!

If they are not so happy with each other, there may be a quick row and no winner. Yes, Aries can push, but if Libra is offended, they may be nice to you, but there is no true warmth after that. If Libra gets his way, shaming you into being nice to him, Aries can be resentful, feel used, and under-the-breath grumbling shows others his unhappiness, shaming Libra. Aries may be brash and disrespectful, while Libra can be the dishonest people pleaser. Better to state your thoughts cleanly from the beginning. If you lose each other, then you can move on. Maybe it will be better timing later on…or you will find more amenable companions.

Venus, in her second sign Libra, has caught up with Sun and he is loving every minute of the beauty! Venus assures him he is a valuable citizen, doing blessed work for our community. He is attracting supporters, financing is looking up! Moon has just passed Chiron and had an educational healing! Time for a Spa Day! The guides there will offer energy information to keep you in good form and your spirits up!

Mercury is no longer retrograde and returns to Libra, about to join Venus and Sun, the next day! He is technically Void of Course, meaning he makes no planetary connections until he enters Libra. That can mean nothing comes of his words or the contract, or contrarily, there is nothing to stop them! Mercury’s first encounter, though he is already opposite, is exactly opposite Jupiter at 1 Libra/Aries Wednesday the 12th! The field is changing quickly! Attention has been focused in Virgo, but now is charmed, enchanted, confronted, by Jupiter in Aries blazing opinions while being intrigued by the immensity and sheer numbers of new ideas of so many people! Chiron and Moon, also in Aries, are promoting many! It’s a good thing Libra is fast on its feet, and Mercury is brilliant in Libra – legal affairs, contacts and partnerships, astute at negotiations, sees both sides!

Due to Mercury’s retrograde, he has already been across the table from Jupiter Sep 2 and while Rx on Sep 18! Jupiter is fast and impressive, confident and fun, but it doesn’t make him or his proposal right. This is the third time Mercury has been with him, and now knows his style, has had time to do the research. He has a good idea how to pass, or bring things to an agreement and conclusion. The entire Mercury Rx cycle ends the 17th, so final details of a good many things are being worked out. The Full Moon is literally illuminating, broadening perspective, offering opportunities! The Full Moon is drawing months long considerations to a close.

Venus and Sun, 13 and 16 Libra, are moving into a Grand Air Trine with Saturn at 18 Aquarius and Mars 22 Gemini! Saturn brings the facts to bear. He’s the scientist that knows how groups can work, has a strong yearning for working with effective groups, humanitarian and in planetary behalf when possible. Climate is changing radically rapidly and Saturn has a cooling effect, ruling glass works, high altitude temperatures/arctic ice, things frozen in time ie fossils, geology, cryogenics, aging. Saturn wants to put things right and will work hard for the changes. Venus and Sun will, as possible, put their connections at his disposal, facilitating infrastructure re/design, establishing legalities that will speed and ease the work.

The second important aspect they make is trine Mars in Gemini! Saturn hires and fires, but Mars brings new ones to the crew! Mars keeps tabs on the news in the making, keeps the public informed! There are celebrations, inaugurations, and at times, need for special support if there is a setback. The call is sent out for experts to come to the rescue. Sometimes it’s important to scrap an attempt and move on without delay! Mars gathers new ideas quickly and options are presented, often better than what was done before! Mars is a terrific mechanic in mind and matter! He has a nose for instant right solutions in a crisis! Venus and Sun couldn’t be happier, sing his praises! He is their champion! Could be a righteous love affair whether of the heart or the glorious joy of working together! They do their best to keep him funded. He is the lead, and an invaluable contributor! They keep introducing him right up the ladder to people and companies, groups, that call him to stand tall and keep learning! He’s happy. The newer the better. Not boring.

Saturn respects Mars’ amazing efforts, trusts him. Asks him to stop by as often as possible so they can keep up to date, keep things going at top speed. Mars sees Saturn’s comprehensive and trustworthy accomplishments and how much Saturn needs help to get it all done. Saturn is the time saving every-minute-counts taskmaster and Mars doesn’t waste a moment, loves the challenge, and often saves the day with his split second timing. They make a great team.

Chiron and Moon in Aries, Mars’ sign, are midpoint sextile between Saturn and Mars. They are cheering them on! They are offering quickie healings, business ideas, fighting for independent rights for women, saving the children, how to secure adequate housing for homeless and elders, safety from weapons. Saturn is a lawmaker, Libra goes to court, Mars gets the word out, alerts citizens what is needed next. There is a lot to be updated as times change so quickly.

Mars may seem to have moments of confusion due to his immanent square with Neptune in Pisces Tuesday the 11th. He could get lost. Mars is already spread pretty thin at times with the myriads of possibilities in Gemini. He needs to stop and re prioritize to keep the cause in mind. Neptune is the infinite of the dreamtime, the collective of all being. Some is real, some imaginative, creative! The spiritual cause is to develop empathy, compassion. And that takes a few moments to get the kitten out of the road, the child home to mum. Mars can be racing along and have an insight that stops him in his tracks and all of a sudden his direction is changed, maybe even his life, forever! We may never see him again. Or, the whole thing becomes real, when before it was simply exciting. Now it is personally encompassing!

Neptune in Pisces and Pluto in Capricorn are remaining in close sextile, as they have off and on since 1950. Neptune is Pluto’s psychic dreamer, spiritual guide, a secret power in his background. Pluto brings potent empowerment to Neptune’s wishes, matters of the Soul! Pluto brings material funding as well as the power of the deep within Kundalini flame of life! If there are addictions, Pluto burns away the dross, detoxes and counsels.

This combination will have deep content change when Pluto enters Aquarius March 2023. Pluto does retrograde back and forth between Capricorn and Aquarius, giving Neptune, and the rest of us, a chance to adjust. Then in March 2025, Neptune enters ARIES along with Saturn entering Aries as well! Wow! Neptune will retrograde back into Pisces once. There will be further varying adjustments with Pluto! The sextile continues, but will often be what we astrologers call ‘out of sign!’ It will be numerically sextile energy, but the signs may not be ‘compatible.’ The positive offers that sextiles usually bring may be more difficult to enact until we are also able to work the disparate signs well together too.

Saturn and Uranus are square at the same degree now. Intense. They have been working out challenges of timing and infrastructures to make major changes possible. Things as simple as eBikes have been up for perusal. The pandemic has brought lower incomes for many. There have been high gas prices and global warming, so eBikes can be part of the answer. But what about those batteries?! They have started fires and now people are thinking ahead, what about recycling the batteries?! It’s good to see people thinking ahead. People have been at home a lot, have had time to research and think in the course of searching for new jobs. New jobs have been created! Uranus is on the cutting edge, Saturn wants to be ultimately useful! Both are scientifically and research inclined; Uranus is inventive! Old patterns are being broken. We are waking up! See more about Saturn square Uranus

Just to add a little more spice, Sun is inconjunct Uranus in Taurus. Uranus is important because it is the planet of the sign Saturn is in! Saturn is the old one who notes karma and dharma. Karma is the old do it right or there will be payback down the line. Dharma is the work of the Soul. It is what you dedicate your life to, how you serve your brethren with everything you got. Sun is the Light of your Life, where your heart is, your personal brand of Enlightenment. Uranus is your friendships to evolution, a daily affair, yet mighty when you gather in numbers at a given time, a turning point. Uranus is freedom and change, friendships that beget humanitarian unity and shifts. In Taurus, the sign of Earth herself, Libra sees how elemental the matters are. We aren’t just fighting to fight, we are fighting for life itself, clean water for example.

As with our New Moon, this too is a Seesaw chart.  Moon has moved across the chart leaving Mercury, Venus and Sun standing away from the main body of planets. The three are all making oppositions, which is classic for this type of chart. Oppositions sometimes separate factions while at other times it’s like extending a hand across the table, sharing our best with each other. Pluto is still the base planet and Mars the lead. Both are fighters, Pluto the ninja behind the scenes with money, being the shaman healer, psychotherapist, and Mars the first responder, initiator, adventurer at the front!

All the outer planets, Jupiter, Saturn, Chiron, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, are Retrograde. Started Aug 24 goes through Oct 8! They are all in the base group. Each is reconsidering recent events, re-circuiting causes, tinkering with solutions. In short, things are not stable, but in an adjustment phase with more to come when they go over the same degrees a third time after they turn forward, direct. Some will stay in long 1 degree stations when they turn. That gives you the opportunity to focus steadily, absorb, really feel deeply, sort, peaceably relinquish what no longer works, use your new free time to establish the best.

The Cardinal action signs, Libra and Aries, and Mars delighting in the Gemini plethora of information at his fingertips, are curious and Saturn in Aquarius is not bored with the wild ideas coming across his desk! Jupiter in Aries doesn’t care about being the teacher’s pet, is off to see what’s new anywhere he’s going or has been! Mercury is never still in his second sign Virgo! There are things that need to be taken care of every day and reorganization is being called for frequently as this bunch keeps changing happening! All in all, the outer planets have all been retrograde, but, Ha! Pluto is the first to go forward as of the 8th, the day before the Full Moon! Pandora’s Box is slightly open for a peek, Full Moon lighting the way! Saturn turns forward Oct 22/23! This chart wants forward action! Even if they aren’t moving at the moment, don’t be fooled! Libra’s mind is always paying attention to shifts around them. They thrive on mental action, sense even the most subtle changes in the prevailing balance.

This grouping of the Venus/Sun opposition, Grand Air Trine and sextiles, aspects with Uranus, includes EIGHT planets in primarily favorable aspects! This chart is pretty cohesive, has or wants a unity of cause and has plenty of questions.

The Fixed Stars, Galactic Center/GC, and Pluto!

Neptune 23 Pisces and Pluto, 26 Capricorn continue to activate major fixed star Algol 26 Taurus and the Galactic Center at 27 Sagittarius.

Pluto moves only 3° a year, retrograding back and forth through the degrees as it travels Capricorn. Allowing a 3 degree range, anytime Pluto is between 23 Cap 27 to 29 Cap 27, it will trine fixed star Algol at 26 Taurus 27. That period started Feb 2020 – virus time, and will go through Jan 2024. It is now continuously trine Algol. Exact trines are formed 5 times: on Spring Equinox Mar 20, & June 5, 2021, and in 2022 Jan 17, 2022, Aug 29, Nov 16. Pluto trine Algol

The GC is the center of our Milky Way, a monumental power center encompassing huge knowledge. Sagittarius is the Teacher, traveler of the cosmos across dimensions beyond our understanding, yet it exists and we have access. The GC Stars send Light from aeons away, a subtle light, but perhaps even more potent because we can’t ‘see’ it and don’t fight or try to analyze it. If your chart factors link up, you may find yourself having insights, both enlightening and perverse.

The Galactic Center offers accessing stunning options in the magnitude of billions of stars, galaxies upon galaxies! We may only get inklings, impressions, but go for the most potent long term options you can conceive of. They are stepping stones to even greater options to come. Stretch, reach out of the box! Hang on and pull yourself up! There will be spirits out there reaching to help you along! More on the Galactic Center!

March 23, 2023 Pluto enters Aquarius, a 246 year event! Now through 2044, 21 years, there will be significant world changes. Right now is the time to be strengthening our Aquarian and Uranian people, those factors in our own charts!

Take a chance! Try special new adventures with family or new friends!

Pluto Trine Fixed Star Algol 2021 2022

In this image of Pluto taken by NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft, different colors represent different compositions of surface ices, revealing a surprisingly active body.(Image: NASA/Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory/Southwest Research Institute) Post 11-16-2016 (Scorpio) by Daniel Stolte, University of Arizona Communications See more at Nature.com 7.29.2020

11.22.22 Note! Though we have passed the Nov 16 last exact trine of five, I want to impress you this aspect will continue closely through 2024!  

All three of these are dark characters! The GC is a gigantic black hole! Algol has a dark reputation, ie beheadings, when your lights go out. Pluto is the furthest planet from the Sun, the darkest and frozen to boot! Some Native American traditions feel to seek power in the underworld…while other religious cultures equate darkness with evil. Great mysteries prevail.

Pluto in Capricorn Trines Fixed Star Algol 26 Taurus 27 2020 – 2024

Pluto is of Scorpio, the sign opposite Algol’s sign Taurus, but Pluto now in Capricorn gentles that flavor of opposition because Pluto in Capricorn trines, favors, Algol. Pluto rules death and rebirth while Algol is considered to bear misfortune, often death. They understand each other. Neither is to be messed with. Capricorn is noted for facing reality squarely. Pluto has been in Cap since 2008, and knows how to do business!

Algol is the baddest Star according to some! It is a rare triple star and eclipsing binary, which means it blinks, and changes brightness, even ‘disappears!’ It is the Medusa’s Head, carried in the left hand of the Hero, Perseus. On the dark side, ‘It causes misfortune, violence, decapitation, hanging, electrocution and mob violence, and gives a dogged and violent nature that causes death to the native or others. It is the most evil star in the heavens.’ Some say it’s not the ‘bad’ within us but pushing through blockages to the beauty beyond is what really matters. We can face our demons with sincere intent and life changes for the better! See more!  See more about the spiritual side…

Many give Algol a wide berth, plan wisely astrologically. Astrologers often allow 5 degrees for the effective range with Algol while most stars get only 1 degree range. If in neighboring signs, only 3 or less degrees might be used. If you have chart factors in that 5 degree range, one way or another you are connected with Algol. That’s 21° of one sign to 1° of a sign. Since the 0 and 1 degrees are of a different sign, the aspect may have less power and a different effect, some worse, some better. If you have questions, do see your astrologer.

Pluto has been having the Algol experience, and is one of the few who can stand up under this trial. Very luckily, the trine is the most favorable angle, so though not unscathed, he survives. Both Pluto and Algol are respected and incur life and death situations. One hopes the trine bends the relationship with Algol to a more satisfactory outcome. Earth signs are a bit ‘indelible.’ Their effects are more long lasting. Keep turning the tables on Algol’s bad rep. Stay calm in the face of violence, shift your connections so better can happen. Know your rights and choose safety unless/even if you are trying to save someone’s life. If you are the offender, get all the help you can to change. Many a fine leader has come from a dark place.

We have major issues on the planet today – violence, pandemic, extreme climate weather. The pandemic will pass. Guns and war may always be with us as they always have been. Climate may be the most urgent matter of all, for survival. With eyes wide open, prepare to better your climate conditions. Many areas need infrastructure updates. If any combination could make these changes, powerful Pluto and Algol, turned to the good, can do it!

Pluto understands much of this. Capricorn often has working answers to bring us back together in common cause. Be safe and be well. Tread gently. Get all the facts before you pass judgment. Steady in the Light.

Pluto is now, New Year 2022, at 25° Capricorn 57 and moves only 3° a year. Pluto retrogrades back and forth through the degrees as it travels Capricorn. Allowing a potent 3 degree range, anytime Pluto is between 23 Cap 27 to 29 Cap 27, it will trine Algol at 26 Taurus 27. That period started Feb 2020 – virus time, and will go through Jan 2024. It is now continuously trine Algol. Exact trines are formed 5 times: on Spring Equinox Mar 20, & June 5, 2021, and in 2022 Jan 17, 2022, Aug 29, Nov 16.

Jan 17, 2022, the 3rd Trine, the turning point of the five, is also the day of the Full Moon at 27 Cancer 50 … and Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Since Pluto trines Algol at 26 Taurus, a potent formation is made! The Moon is just past opposition Pluto and sextile Algol. The Full Moon Capricorn Sun is just over a degree past his annual conjunction with Pluto! Such a Sun can be read as Scorpio (Pluto’s sign) as much as Capricorn! Nothing has been forgotten! Feminine Moon, mature in late degrees of her own sign Cancer, has made feelings many times deeper than usual. Women, children and home will be significant. Moon is sextile Algol, Algol considered by some to be an incredible feminine force! Sun with Pluto then also trines Algol, so there is a sense of personal identity with Algol, our own demons, at that Full Moon. Pluto and Capricorn are also feminine factors, so be prepared for a lot of intuitive perception, some like revelations, epiphanies, some fairly distasteful yet need to be dealt with, even if it you decide to put them aside. But the majority of the signs/planets involved are action oriented, so sooner action is more likely than later.

When Pluto goes into Aquarius 2023, it won’t be until it gets in late degrees before it squares Algol five times 2040-41. That may be a dangerous time when Uranus squares Neptune 5 times 2039 – 41. Peace may be shattered, and life seem hopeless, but stand true. After the storm the Light breaks through! This will be in the final cleanup of Aquarius before Pluto permanently goes into Pisces in 2044. Pluto in Aquarius 2023 to 2044!

Algol’s connection with the Galactic Center!

Fixed star ALGOL and the GC are in lockstep! Each being star factors, they each take 72 years to move a degree. Currently Algol is at 26 Taurus and the GC is 27 Sag. Whenever one is activated, so is the other. Algol and the GC have an oblique off center position (inconjunct), aware, but out of the corner of your eye. That position is common in the charts of psychics. They see peripheral factors that influence the outcome. Inconjuncts sometimes lead you on a goose chase, but maybe to greener pastures. You do get a greater perspective. Even if you go back home, you are different. You have perhaps made new friends and associates that can carry that sector for you. Excellent adjustments are in the offing. Destination Algol would not usually be a conscious choice, but sometimes it is part of our Path and it just happens. Square your shoulders and do it, eyes wide open. Fascinating encounter.

Algol’s bad rep, strikes fear in a lot of hearts, but so does the GC when people find out it is one gigantic black hole!!! You could vanish in an instant! You astral travelers might should be careful? I like to think of Algol as the GC’s Guardian. Algol is considered to be a super powerful feminine force. It would take such an entity to protect the mighty GC! Their off center relationship may take you on the road less followed, so to speak. There is a draw to explore the unknown. Algol is ready to stomp her feet and ‘invite’ you to travel, or takes you another place once the GC’s info has been bestowed, a place that needs the information the most.

Remember, Pluto is the Phoenix that rises from its own ashes. Algol is that powerful feminine force that carries you across thresholds. The Galactic Center is the Portal to the LIGHT of billions of galaxies and Suns! Paul O. Hewit writes: “it is probably the second strongest spot in any astrology chart, following the Sun. It is a stunning source of energy, motivation, and aspiration. The Galactic Center is the Sun of our Sun. It is the source of most of the gravitational energy present in our galaxy, and probably the source of most of the energy in any chart, transformed through our own Sun.” [Some say the GC IS the strongest factor in our charts!]

Sitting in a very dark place, maybe on the rooftop of your car, watching the stars go by, think it over in your deepest consciousness… Shed your cloaks, unlock your interior armor. Let your pure mortality surface. Key in to what would make you happy to get done this life.

Dark and Light are but two sides of the same coin.
Power to you!

Aries Lucky New Moon March 31/April 1!

Libra/Aries Full Pink Moon April 16!.


Aries New Moon!

Thursday 11 Aries 31 March 31/April 1 New Moon at 11:24 PM Pacific. In HI, AK and Pacific zone it is a Black Moon, the second New Moon in a month. East of Pacific, it is NOT a Black Moon. INSTEAD, they have their second New Moon of the month, Black Moon, on April 30.

Getting ready for April 12’s once in a Lifetime event, Jupiter conjunct Neptune LUCK!

2022 Aries New Moon Arches Natl Park Ranger Star Party!

Arches National Park is an International Dark Sky Park. Ranger led Star Party participants use red flashlights pointed to the ground so you won’t harm your night vision as much.

This is a 5 sign, 2 stellium tight 105° bundle New Moon chart! Not only are New Moons new beginnings, but especially a New Moon in first sign of the zodiac Aries, and having 4 planets in Aries!!!

This New Moon at 11 degrees, but conjunct Chiron in Aries at 12 degrees, and semisextile Uranus at 12 degrees, still links with the 12 degree New Moons of 2021-22! 2021 Nov, Dec and 2022 Jan 2 and 31/Feb 1, and Mar 2 there were five New Moons that have linked in Scorpio, Sag, Cap, AQ and Pisces. Those of you with chart factors close to 12 degrees have been and will be activated by 7 New Moons from Oct 2021 to March 2022. Jan and March 2022 will have two New Black Moons in HI, AK and Pacific time zones. There was NO New Moon in February 2022. Finish up your goal you set related to the factors at or very near 12 degrees in your chart! This one is the true believer, Jupiter conjunct Neptune, four planets in Aries action stellium version!

All the planets within 105 degrees are quite focused! The bundle starts with Elder Shaman Pluto in Guardian Capricorn. As base planet, he protects the ones at the back, heals their weak points, teaches them life tools, scans those who approach from behind to see if they are friend or a thief of time. Some join, others are not let through. His position, his gut strength in believing in their purpose, is crucial to the successful progress of the team ahead. He has expectations and they loyally want to get it done for him.

Next comes the 3 planets in Aquarius in a mini but potent stellium! Saturn, of the past, Capricorn’s planet, is between Mars and Venus! While Saturn is linking to the base planet Pluto, all three are in relationship with Uranus, the lead planet, the Aquarian planet! Venus is in a special relationship, being in mutual reception with Uranus! Venus is in Uranus’s sign Aquarius and Uranus is in Venus’s sign Taurus! They have a rapport. Mars the planet of the first sign of the zodiac, Aries, is behind both Saturn and Venus kickin’ up the Aquarian stardust, sprinkling them with cosmic light particles that keep reminding them of their work to be done rather than looking back over their shoulders! Mars wants to do new and different now! He has great courage against heavy odds, but Saturn will help him use his energy succinctly in a timely fashion. Mars’s inspiration in Aquarius is phenomenal! Venus is a bit etheric, but she shows the way with beauty and an admirable unique style. She is kind with a light touch, and with aplomb, reassures all it is valuable, worth the effort.

With Saturn you can be super depressed, boo hoo, I have no friends and nobody to love, OR working your butt off saving the world! That, of course, is a formidable task, and you are allowed a few dark moments, but Saturn is demanding, Aquarius changes in a flash; Venus may miss some of her amenities. If you are nervous and frightened, get help. That’s what friends are for. If you really don’t have friends, get some other help and see about making some friends. Uranus, that friend planet, is over there in Taurus. Taurus can be gentle, supportive, just sit with you. But don’t abuse the privilege either. Ask for simple comfortable ways to get moving again without ignoring your inner needs.

A once in a Lifetime event! The Promise of 2022, the True Believers, and Dreams Come True aspect, the 166 year Jupiter conjunct Neptune aspect in Pisces, Neptune’s sign, is now close by only 2 degrees! We are now steeping in it, body and Soul! It will be exact April 12, only a dozen days away! This New Moon of Spirit is opening our Hearts to embrace the actions that make the difference. It’s an Initiation of sorts, that makes us realize the importance of our life choices, to recognize our own. To see that working with others on a mutual goal is as important as the independence we hold when we work all alone. To choose working together is independent. It is our choice!

The compassionate beliefs and visions of Pisces need to be made true and whole. Aries is the champion who can do it! Saturn, the Builder, is at 22 degrees, in semisextile with Jupiter and Neptune at 21 and 23! Semisextiles can have plenty of strength. Saturn is no weakling, and Jupiter is big even, maybe especially so, in Pisces! Mars is the Aries action planet and he will be joining Saturn at 22 April 4 when Jupiter gets to 22! Anything Saturn has been hesitating on, Mars may push over the top! Their combined powers of new and old will immortalize some of the facets of the Jupiter/Neptune conjunction! See more about Jupiter with Neptune!

Pisces will never be entirely definable. That’s part of what it’s all about. Things you can’t see that change you. Knowing without knowing why. Psychic perception. Discovery because all you really had to do was go there. You were drawn because you sensed someone needed help. The dreamtime is mostly ungovernable. Imagination is a huge option. When you are at sea, with no land in sight, that requires a trust you will get somewhere…There is a letting go and an infinite merging.

In old astrology, Jupiter stood for fame and fortune! He is still considered to be happy go lucky, the traveler teacher, delights in storytelling and gambling, especially the horses – he was a Centaur, half man, half horse! Jupiter expands our business, land, plans, length of journey! Sports are natural and keep him healthy! In Pisces, just add the ocean component! Your sailboat wins the race, you get the shipping contract, take the magnificent enchanting cruise, scuba the coral reefs! You may teach marine biology, especially of the big denizens of the seas, the whales. And your career may turn toward protecting the plants of the sea as well. Why not have a splendid oceanside restaurant, sports shop, museum?! Buy a kayak, a sailboat! Jupiter is like an oracle and Pisces is psychic! Foretelling the successes of maritime investments could bring your portfolio to new highs!

And this may be the time to do it! Outer planet events like this have a 3-day hot period. This one occurs 7:42 AM Pacific, so in this zone count back 11, 10, 9. Those three days and the early am of the 12th are the most powerful. Do something each day. Do some inquiring, go by your intuition. Inquire well in advance and be ready for it!

The North Node is 23 Taurus in combination with Saturn and Jupiter and Neptune. The Moon’s Node, retrograde on an 18 year cycle, is already past sextile Neptune, the old man of the sea, but still potently in the same degree. Neptune has been in his own sign Pisces, so is extra aware, perceptive, insightful. The North Node will be filled with dreams and beauty, longings for more than ever was. Moon’s node is leaning to the Taurus sustainable earthy side of things, more patience, personal ownership, body consciousness. Jupiter will bring a broader bigger perspective. Learning more, learning how to teach the principles, having joyful time out away will bring a more worldly experience and status. Clarity of judgement, faith and trust, knowing you deserve those good things will bring joy.

The Moon’s North and South Nodes in Taurus/Scorpio are square Saturn in Aquarius through April 11, the day before the Jupiter conjunct Neptune! The South Node is said to represent our past, something we have over done, or where we made mistakes. They represent a balance being sought, our needing to bring the North Node sign into equal strength. Scorpio is our $;Taurus is my $. Scorpio can be obsessive and intense, wants to merge; Taurus is patient and instinctively his own person. All of us are working this balance through July 2023. Saturn standing equally between them in a T Square is calling for a disciplined change, a karmic freedom these fixed signs have held for a long time. It may involve your father, being a father or the boss, career, your age, retirement. There could be fears or old griefs that have held you up. Sometimes there is a humbling and a need to start right where you are at, like it or not, and build from your hands and knees. It is honorable Soul work. Just do it and congratulate yourself for the smallest changes. You are turning the soil of your very being.

Do as much of this work as you can to clear yourself for April 12’s 166 year aspect! As that aspect approaches, concurrently, it will surely help you! It will help you understand addictive patterns, give you things more blessed to think about than what has kept you where you have been. You will have refreshing freedom and feel safe and be comfortable to have it. Aries will literally help you move through it.

Now comes the four planets ARIES stellium! It is a powerful fiery Mercury with hot breath, LOL, Sun in all his bright spring, shall I say it, horny glory, Moon as feisty as femininity can get, and Chiron demanding they hurry up! Mercury is quick and alert, shouting marching cadence, leading and telling them why. Sun says I’ll do it! Moon is making food for the troops as fast as she can while keeping the kids in a semblance of order, putting the oldest in charge. Chiron says you need to take care of that now, let me see it, be still. You will be better, and if nothing else, more enthusiastic than you have been in a long time. It may be a Thursday, but this is a shaker and roller party! Ideas are spinning around at light force! Go roller skating after the meeting to blow off some of the energy! Take a bike ride uphill, LOL!

Chiron in Aries is especially powerful with the New Moon. Chiron is on a 51 year cycle. Only once a year would a New Moon be conjunct with him and this is it! Chiron in Aries is awesome. As a healer, he is picking up the fallen on life’s marathon, the leaders with burnout, those with accidents, emergencies along the way, interferes with obsessive behaviors and addictions. Many of his clients are having unique issues in these new times. His immediate specific responses are filled with intuitive insights. It’s time for healers to heal just not themselves and their clients, but each other. Learning of one person’s experiences can help many others. Gather up and share even if you are, or maybe because, you are so independent.

These 4 are totally linked with the lead planet Uranus, the Aquarian planet in the sign Taurus! He is at 12 degrees, they are at 9, 11, and 11, and 12! It’s another semisextile connection of neighboring signs. They know each other. One is a foundation for the next. Aries is the first, fights for what should be, takes the risk, others follow because he looks good for it! Uranus is a lead planet always, in his own way, because he is an inventor, futurist for humanity, key networker. But these days he is the leader of all the outer planets as well! As the Aquarian planet he is known for his unpredictability, seemingly being a bit crazy because he is so far ahead he can’t always explain his own genius; his need for freedom often takes him away from what others see as crucial moments. Being in Taurus has helped him be more steady, to understand what is necessarily common everyday living, basic needs of the people, how to touch base now and again. You can see how it might take the exuberance of Aries to keep him on task. He is deep in his creative work, and always leads by his long term perceptions, light years of insights. Aries keeps knocking on his door, reminding him that we the people need a few translations, guidance along the way.

Uranus is glad to see the inspired leaders of the four, especially Chiron, coming his way! Uranus sweeps them under his great wings (Uranus rules birds and airplanes), talks them up with his futuristic humanitarian, planetary plans, then swoops them all forward around the world! It’s magic, moving and marvelous!

As Jupiter is fame and fortune, Uranus also shows up in charts of famous people with huge followings and fan clubs! Uranus is the planet of Aquarius the Networker! Fame depends on numbers and if it’s good, it’s good and the word spreads! Uranus in Taurus, Venus’s sign, gains fame for beauty, unique style, the most valuable things, like Earth herself. There is a simplicity and appealing common sense, a grassroots quality everyone innately understands. Change is steadily paced, with a few dramatic boosts that keep it interesting!

With Uranus backed by strong-as-a-bull Taurus valuable changes, both simple and complex, will be inevitable. Lead planet Uranus in Taurus has a genius simplicity to it and things go much faster than expected with Uranus finessing it. Uranus, the prime networker, is getting the word out to people worldwide. It’s not just the functionality of networking, but the meaningful content, essential human rights, the ecological humanitarian efforts. The territory being covered has great range and lasting alliances are being formed, loopholes being closed to prevent future losses.

Uranus is the planet of freedom, evolution, the futurist. It works as an ultimate loner or in behalf of humanity, networking across continents. Genius, research, invention are it’s talents. Awakening and Enlightenment are its invitations. We see the Uranus in Taurus Earth all around us, feel the connection with the totality of the whole climate. We stop to chat along the way, agree about what differences may be required to heal, maintain and secure what is so precious. Friendships may come and go, but we hope Earth as we know it now is with us lifelong and for our children’s children too.

Many 2021 factors had an Aquarian component, as does also all the 2022 New Moons through now. This New Moon is closely connected with the Aquarian planet Uranus and Mars, Saturn and Venus are in Aquarius! We are preparing for Pluto’s entry into Aquarius in 2023. We are more aware now that some connections need reworking, fixing, updating. Some ideas have long term implications worth working for, are financially productive, spiritually satisfying! Make notes then network like crazy to get more ideas to complete the package, make it whole. Select who will work together, and get it rolling! Be relentless! A lot can be done in a short time.

New Moon’s by nature start new cycles. Pisces is the last sign, but inspires the first sign, Aries, with his visions. As the last sign, Pisces is a sign of maturity, a collection of the wisdom of all the signs before him. He is well steeped in and well founded by his deeper kind of intelligence. He has the capacity to see, even be, the helpless sufferers, know how they actually can change. He sees the fortitude to sustain in hard times. He notes the celebrations of success as countless falls were overcome against the odds. The old hymn says ‘Nobody knows the trouble I’ve seen…’ Do be kind. The ‘visions’ Pisces often sees are his compassionate wishes, the collective dream for many Souls. Some dreams may be but a whisper in the night, or a glimmer upon awakening, but they are the seeds of new beginnings. Aries, the very sign of new beginnings, so ingeniously takes it from there!

We are getting ready for April 12’s once in a Lifetime event, Jupiter conjunct Neptune! Wishing you LUCK!

4 Behenian FIXED STARS! 

Wiki says: The Behenian fixed stars, used by alchemists, are a selection of fifteen stars considered especially useful for magical applications in the medieval astrology of Europe and the Arab world. Their name derives from Arabic bahman, “root,” as each was considered a source of astrological power for one or more planets. Each is also connected with a gemstone and plant that would be used in rituals meant to draw the star’s influence (e.g., into a talisman). When a planet was within six degrees of an associated star, this influence was thought to be particularly strong.

Erik Roth reminds us: The Behenian stars are stars that have been shared as magical but it is really all stars and planets have their own magic and can be utilized through symbolic, psychic, spiritual and otherwise magical purposes in our lives.  The near-infinite sky dome is a part of our lives and has been since our very distant ancestors hundreds of thousands of years looked upon them and not only wondered what they were but also from a place of seeking, of finding meaning and seeing something beyond themselves.

Alphecca, one of the 15 Behenian Stars! This star is sometimes called Gemma, the jewel of the crown. A brilliant white star, it is also called the Pearl of the Crown. It is the Alpha star of Corona Borealis, the Northern Crown, at 12 Scorpio 35 (2021) is inconjunct the New Moon and Chiron! The Pisces Sun and Moon are making magic with fellow water sign deep Scorpio, sign of the Underworld. Healing secrets are revealed, shared, likely long lasting special partnerships formed. Scorpio’s treasures may fund Pisces causes. What may have seemed futile, finds a supportive response and Pisces carries it on into the world beyond expectations. Rising from our own ashes, Pisces washes us clean. We our liberated to make our wishes known.

Alphecca marks the loop, or knot, of the ribbon along which are fastened the buds, flowers, or leaves of the wreath shown in early drawings with two long out-streaming ends. Corona Borealis represents the garland given by Venus to Ariadne on the occasion of her marriage to Bacchus after she had been forsaken by Theseus. Manilius said it ‘sparkles in the mid forehead. He was quite taken with the Crown. See his eloquent thoughts about its relationship with Virgo! Jamie at Astrology King says: it is of the nature of Venus and Mercury (idealistic, psychic, handsome, neat, lovable, refined, genteel, intelligent). It gives honor, dignity and poetical and artistic ability.

With Moon: Public honor and dignity, suffers through law, partners and neighbors, trouble through underhanded dealings of enemies but eventual triumph over them, bad for love affairs, some faithful friends, greatly esteemed by Venus and Mercury people. (Robson) Honors and preferment.

With Sun: Active and brilliant mind, self-seeking, subject to scandal that does not affect the position. Honors and preferment.

Alphecca is opposite Uranus, who is semisextile the New Moon, rich with opportunities! With Uranus Robson says: Selfish, mental affliction and violence at end of life, psychic power, suffering through occultism, deceptive, many false friends, small inheritance obtained with difficulty, losses by law, enemies and mercurial affairs, sorrow through children or an adopted child, domestic trouble through own acts, danger of a violent death.

We have come a long way in our thinking about Uranus than when it was first discovered. Think in modern terms of the benefits of this planet and combine that with the issues Robson perceived. Uranus rules electronics and computers, networking of all kinds, humanitarian efforts, freedom, awakening, change, evolution. Alphecca’s charm and intelligence work well with so many opportunities!

Aquarian Abraham Lincoln 0°03′, and J. Paul Getty 1°36′, had Alphecca with Uranus. See more at Astrology King!

Fixed Stars Algorab 13 Libra – is opposite the New Moon and Chiron, inconjunct Uranus in. Adjustments will be made between these four planets! Balance will be sought, new beginnings trialed, attempts made to anchor positive change. I imagine few of you have done much work with or even heard of Algorab! It is on the right wing of the Raven, in the constellation Corvus, the Crow. If you love the intelligent Corvids this may bode well for you, if not, all the nasties you hear of them may be part of the Truth.


Fixed star Sirius at 14 Cancer, and Algorab, travel together, challengingly always square! Sirius is the brightest star, so has mojo just for being! Family and relationships may be at odds.

  • In the US Algorab’s rep is not so good. Astrologer Jamie Partridge summarizes: Algorab is one of the 15 magic related Behenian Fixed Stars. Its image is a raven, snake or negro dressed in black. It makes the wearer angry, bold, courageous and a backbiter, gives bad dreams, the power of summoning or driving away evil spirits and protection from winds and the malice of men and devils. – Whew! That’s impressive! If you sense those things in advance it can be a blessed forewarning.
  • Quite differently he also states the 28th Chinese Xiù – 軫 (Zhěn) Chariot thinks:  This is the celestial Carriage and it represents the transport of tributes from foreign lands to the Emperor, thus the accumulation of wealth. It also presides over travel of all kinds and vehicles. It also presaged favorable winds and an end to storms. Events in business bring great profit and everything done heralds fortunate returns. Paying homage to ancestors will honor one with a “Dragon Child”. It is also a great day for marriages and births.
  • But some modern astrologers concur that it shows up in terrorism events! See the details at Astrology King, Jamie’s site! Don’t ‘terrorize’ yourself or provoke others; help others and yourself to be safe. Be aware of triggers and danger signals and leave; talk later if possible. Use your intelligence in a good way.
  • Chiron squares Sirius, so includes the New Moon. Uranus sextiles Sirius!Besides being the night sky’s brightest star, Sirius enjoys a terrific reputation for the most part, but also called the Dog Star, watch out for dog bites, LOL! It is another of the 15 Behenian stars. Sirius is of the nature of Jupiter and Mars (high ambition, pride, love of power, grandeur of view.) It gives honor, renown, wealth, ardor, faithfulness, devotion, passion and resentment, and makes its natives custodians, curators and guardians. It gives honor, the goodwill and favor of men and the airy spirits, and the power to pacify nobles and others. And to tease you, it rules beryl, savine, mugwort, dragonwort and the tongue of a snake! See a lot more at Astrology King!, including ties with famous people!Sirius in Cancer wants family harmony. Aries wants independence from parents and family expectations. Challenges are likely unless the family honors him and cheers him on! Sirius in Cancer is in a way in kinship with Uranus, the planet of humanity, the family of humans. Sextiles offer opportunities and could expand business considerably!
  • Sun with Sirius: Success in business, occupation connected with metals or other martial affairs, domestic harmony.Moon with Sirius: Success in business, influential friends of opposite sex, favorable for the father, good health, beneficial changes in home or business.
  • Uranus conjunct Sirius: Gain and prominence in Uranian matters, help from influential friends, gain through harmonious marriage, especially if male, sudden death.

Pluto Trine Fixed Star Algol. Pluto trines her at 26 Taurus 27  2020-24!

Pluto is of Scorpio, the sign opposite Algol’s sign Taurus, but Pluto now in Capricorn gentles that opposition because Pluto in Capricorn trines, favors Algol. Pluto rules death and rebirth while Algol is considered to bear misfortune, often death. They understand each other. Neither is to be messed with. Capricorn is noted for facing reality squarely.

Algol is the baddest Star according to some! It is a rare triple star and eclipsing binary, which means it blinks, and changes brightness, even ‘disappears!’ It is the Medusa’s Head, carried in the left hand of the Hero, Perseus. On the dark side, ‘It causes misfortune, violence, decapitation, hanging, electrocution and mob violence, and gives a dogged and violent nature that causes death to the native or others. It is the most evil star in the heavens.’ Some say it’s not the ‘bad’ within us but pushing through blockages to the beauty beyond is what really matters. We can face our demons with sincere intent and life changes for the better! See more!

Many give Algol a wide berth, plan carefully astrologically. To be on the safe side, Astrologers often allow 5 degrees for the effective range with Algol while most stars get only 1 degree range. If you have chart factors in that 5 degree range, one way or another you are connected with Algol. If you have questions, do see your astrologer.

Pluto is now at 27° Capricorn 49 and moves only 3° a year. Pluto retrogrades back and forth through the degrees as it travels Capricorn. Allowing a 3 degree range, anytime Pluto is between 23 Cap 27 to 29 Cap 27, it will trine Algol at 26 Taurus 27. That period started Feb 2020 – virus time, and will go through Jan 2024. It is now continuously trine Algol. Exact trines are formed 5 times: on Spring Equinox Mar 20, & June 5, 2021, and in 2022 Jan 17, 2022, Aug 29, Nov 16.

One hopes the trine, a good aspect, bends the relationship with Algol to a more satisfactory outcome. Earth signs are a bit ‘indelible.’ Their effects are more long lasting. Keep turning the tables on Algol’s bad rep. Recent violence, covid deaths, may leave raw feelings of grief, bitterness, betrayal. Freedom is still at issue. Stay calm in the face of violence, shift your connections so better can happen, turn a page, try out some new possibilities. Know your rights and choose safety unless/even if you are trying to save someone’s life. If you are the offender, get all the help you can to change. Many a fine leader has come from a dark place. Pluto understands much of this.

Algol’s connection with the Galactic Center!

Algol and the GC are in lockstep! Each being star factors, they each take 72 years to move a degree. Currently Algol is at 26 Taurus and the GC is 27 Sag. Whenever one is activated, they both are. Algol and the GC have an oblique position (inconjunct), aware, but out of the corner of your eye. That position is common in the charts of psychics. They ‘see’ peripheral factors that influence the outcome. Inconjuncts sometimes lead you on a goose chase, but maybe to greener pastures. You do get a greater perspective. Even if you go back home, you are different. You have perhaps made new friends and associates that can carry that sector for you, or be a link to that sector when you need it. Excellent adjustments are in the offing. Destination Algol would not usually be a conscious choice, but sometimes it is part of our Path and it just happens. Square your shoulders and do it, eyes wide open. Fascinating encounter.

Oh, yes, Algol strikes fear in a lot of hearts, but so does the GC when people find out it is one gigantic black hole!!! You could vanish in an instant! You astral travelers might should be careful? I like to think of formidable Algol as the GC’s Guardian. Algol is considered to be a super powerful feminine force. It would take such an entity to protect the mighty GC! Algol is ready to stomp her feet and ‘invite’ you to travel, or takes you another place once the GC’s info has been bestowed, a place that needs the information the most.

Algol is in Taurus, the first Venus sign, has a sensual touch, loves earthy beauty, sculpts her own existence! The profound Galactic Center is in fiery Sagittarius, the sign between Scorpio and Capricorn. The GC is enjoying lots of laughs and adventure stories, sends rays and bolts of information we are barely capable of downloading let alone understand, and it’s not on anyone’s schedule! Capricorn is hosting Pluto, is trine Algol in Taurus and semi sextile The Galactic Center, piloting the whole scenario of these three powerful factors. By nature he is a no nonsense old Master and gives orders, expecting things to get done. All these three have street creds and are impressive, but Capricorn has hung out with the best and functions well at this level. He treats them more equally both to himself and each other. It’s his job.

On a fine New Moon night, things are blended, no Moonlight or shadows. There is a certain equality as the playing field is equalized. It seems more quiet, even subdued. Without the daylight contrasts and sharp edges we are more receptive… Even if there is a breeze, there are no moving shadows… Sleep can be deeper.
Our dreams are more real and we merge with them more completely… Sometimes we feel different when we wake up and don’t always know why. But a New Moon in Aries may want to get up and take a nighttime walkabout, stay up late dancing, watch the dawn! If you need your sleep to get up well rested, get some good exercise sometime during the day, or exercise twice, both am and early evening?

Be a True Believer and take potent action in behalf of the world!

Libra/Aries Full Pink Moon!

Day before Easter, Saturday April 16, 11:55 AM Pacific, 26 Libra/Aries 46

Praying for Peaceful and Loving New Beginnings.

2022 Libra-Aries Full Moon Ostara Entranced by the Moon Hare Wendy Andrews

Beautiful limited edition print celebrating Spring by Wendy Andrew called Entranced by the Moon.The Libra Mother Moon prays for Peace. Aries Sun is her champion.

This Libra/Aries Full Pink Moon has softer tones than you would expect. It has a 4 planet Pisces stellium, Mercury sextile Venus in gentle signs Taurus and Pisces. When not at war or in court, Libra Moon prefers gentility though the mischievous rogue sometimes wrinkles his nose with a twitch and things change in a moment! Sometimes people are caught off guard, and several eyebrows are lifted with quick glances cast about the room. Naughty or funny, no one is quite the same afterwards, LOL! And sometimes surprise solutions are snatched out of the ethers right before your eyes! Aries and Libra are always looking for answers among the people, something that brings a working start when it was thought all was lost. They are Magicians in their own right!

Last Full Moon we were at the last Full Moon in a SIX months 27 Degree Sequence! They started in 2021. Oct, Nov, Dec, continued in 2022 Jan, Feb, and March, at 27 degrees Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo. The Full Moons at 24 to 29 degrees, continue to activate fixed star Algol 26 Taurus and the Galactic Center at 27 Sagittarius and their Pluto connections strongly 8 times Sep 2021 to April 2022. Fixed stars Polaris – the North StarBetelgeuse in Orion are at 28 Gemini, and Procyon 25 Cn 47, will give varying additional effects per their type of connections with those signs. Note where these factors fall in your chart, which house(s). That is the section of your life that they activate. Check with your astrologer for further personal details.

The Full Pink Moon is traveling in late Aries/Libra 26 degrees, along with Pluto at 28, linking with Algol and the Galactic Center. The Full Moon action signs are T Square Pluto in Capricorn, challenging some of his recent decisions, bringing up fears of betrayals, theft. Blocks to growth are cleaned up, new foundations for secure growth are established. Capricorn can stand for the tried and true old ways, but there come tipping points when times must move forward as we grow. People are stepping up, legalities are being pressed, public opinion is front and center having effect! The signs are cardinal action signs calling for changes right now.

The Full Moon has just passed strong positive aspects with Saturn in Aquarius. Saturn, the planet of Capricorn lends wisdom and dedication, steadies the obsessions Pluto is prey to. Aries easily gets ahead of himself, but is the leader of discovery, first on the scene. Saturn can remind him how vital this is and to rest reasonably, drink water! Saturn is no fool. He knows his own weak spot of hanging on too long and learns how to welcome new ways, keep his work clean and up with the times. Saturn in Aquarius reminds Libra there is more power in group action but it is based in good old fashioned grass roots groundwork. He reminds us all it takes the time it takes, and each person has valuable points of view that contribute to the whole!

Saturn in Aquarius is a once every 29 year affair. He is now the purveyor of Aquarian genius, harnessing its power, anchoring many futuristic ideas for long term growth. He is learning more about how to get a team working well. He has become more of a philosopher, humanitarian, sees the climate changes and factors them in. Friends mean ever so much more to him these days. Collaboration, not just skills, or being on time, gets a lot more done. Parenting is changing, methods of learning are changing. Aging is changing. Careers are changing. It’s like a whole new world, and it is! In some ways we are vitally more responsible. In other ways we are more free than ever before through electronics, the internet, drones and self driving vehicles.

The connections with the great fierce feminine force Algol are seeking a deeper point of view, trusting more elemental organic adjustments, calling on the collective feminine. Jupiter and Neptune, just having made their 166 year conjunction in Pisces, are standing sextile midpoint between Pluto and Algol. They are interpreting what these two powers have to say, proposing some remarkable alternatives. Algol

In trine/sextile with the Galactic Center, the Full Moon offers stunning options in the magnitude of billions of stars, galaxies upon galaxies! We may only get inklings, impressions, but go for the most potent long term options you can conceive of. They are stepping stones to even greater options to come. Stretch, reach out of the box! Hang on and pull yourself up! There will be spirits out there reaching to help you along! The Galactic Center is the center of our galaxy. It is a monumental power center encompassing huge knowledge. More on the Galactic Center!

Full Moons reach as far across the table as possible, reaching out, spreading and collecting the news, collaborating with the other side, letting them know our thoughts in person. Yes, there are separations for a while, but separately, uninfluenced, we gain the perspective of other points of view, the best of which we can take home to our tribe. It’s only 2 weeks or so until we are back together at the New Moon.

Moon herself, in pastel lover Libra, combines the red and white of her opposite, Aries, making Pink! She leads with this love color of a gentle heart as the handle of another 105 degree tight grouping of the other planets. As with the Jan, Feb and March Full Moons, Mama Moon is the Handle of the last Bucket chart of four, all the other planets on the other side of the chart! This is the last one of this consecutive four. As the Bucket chart handle planet, she becomes the focus point, the liaison to the world at large both for dispersal of and gathering/receiving incoming information. She is the honorable seeker, representative, negotiator, shares the goods. She funnels valuable information home, strengthens our people. In Libra it concerns negotiations, nurturing relationships of all kinds, balancing factors in the Bucket and with the world at large. She empties the bucket when it gets too full, removes what no longer works, shares good things and scoops up more nurturing materials for current workings.

Since she and Sun T square Pluto, he the group’s base planet, Pluto is surely the 2nd planet of power in the chart. It is due to his additional motivation that the group is kundalini charged, energy from the life force base of the spine and there are few quitters! He heals, teases, threatens, bribes, LOL, whatever it takes to get the important business done. As base planet. He cleans up messes, keeps people moving forward, focused and working at things that please their spirits. He knows their secrets and gets them through their fears and resistance. His financial instincts are a blessing. Pluto is the shaman of internal and psychological healings. Messy relationships can be cleared, death and endings are normalized so we remain functional. Letting go lightens our path.

Moon is in an out of sign trine with Sun’s ruler Mars in Pisces. He is base planet for the 4 planet Pisces stellium! Though in dreamer Pisces, he is in a spunky sextile with Full Moon Sun in Mars’s sign Aries! Activated by Pisces’s amazing visions, charged with Sun’s pure vitality in the first sign, do not underestimate what Mars in Pisces can do! He has that giant fish hook, takes on the powers of the tiniest fish seeking hidden answers and tiniest openings, takes on the cloaks of the giant denizens of the ocean, uses the huge tides of the continental currents. Never underestimate a Pisces with a purpose! Moon is there negotiating relationships, rites of passage, legalities of necessity, perhaps establishing new laws about how crucial the oceans’ roles are to our survival.

Moon is just past the inconjunct with ocean planet Neptune in his own sign Pisces, and Jupiter with Neptune! This makes the Full Moon directly connected with 3 of the 4 Pisces planets! Moon in Libra is very sensitive about the nature of your relationships. Aries is sensitive about motion. If you twitch or your face or body language move, it’s a tell. They know your cards. Pisces is all encompassing. They sense your beingness, your intent, your Soul. They know how you feel about your life. We’re looking for something greater than what used to be. Ordinary routine is no longer enough. Jupiter leads us astray into Pisces magical perceptions. Some are inexplicable yet seem ok. Sometimes the only way is to jump in! All of these signs have psychic talents. You will adjust and learn quickly.

2022’s Promise, the astonishing 166 year Jupiter conjunct Neptune is April 12, just 4 days before this Full Moon! Jupiter is now at the same degree as Neptune! This Full Moon will max out stories we have been exploring! Jupiter amps up the magic, the mystic, mythical! Jupiter is with the compassionate saviors, traveling with sufferers and saints! His Luck will help dreams come true around the world. Intuition will be rampant with many insightful epiphanies. Big news will bring awareness of plights, successes, important Truths, discoveries. The waters of the world will take on further importance, whether temperatures, pollution affecting food chains, natural disasters. How we travel the seas, oceanic shipping factors will be addressed. Ocean sports, seaside businesses, spas and retreats will bring unprecedented numbers.

Jupiter can be broad minded; Neptune is infinite, a rainbow of inspiration! There are plenty of wandering, sometimes lost, Souls in the galaxy. Jupiter is funny, lucky, optimistic, sees the Great Plan for the future! He can cheer Neptune up when needed. Neptune entices Jupiter, so easy to do, to sweep into the world of spiritualism, psychic perception. This dimension is bigger than anything Jupiter ever imagined! Jupiter may go to church, but Neptune is the Universe! Jupiter is filled with ideas. Jupiter, the horse lover, wants to harness that Neptune energy, make it more accessible, incorporate it into our world plans. The implication of the insights are enormous. It’s a dream and a vision. The insights include ways to do it well and in a timely fashion, so it may be much closer to happening than we think! There will be a boost with their 166 year conjunction April 12! Set some special time aside to be with it and pick a special location too! See your AstroLocality astrologer!

On a daily basis, Jupiter is having the time of his life! He thinks of the old schooners, undersea reefs, taking a cruise, visiting the peoples of the world, starting a maritime museum of natural history, teaching about seaweeds and marine animals! Uranus in Taurus has his toes in the sand at the beach, feeling the rush of the waves, appreciating the vast sunrises and sunsets. He loves how the land animals come to the inlets, river banks, the edges of the bays for water at night and dawn, how birds nest at water’s edge, migrators seasonally come and go. He considers himself to be their friend and vows for them to be safe and free. He sees the land changes and more coming. Preserves will be set up, and as we plant milkweed for Monarchs and see their population recovery, so can we do more for others as we learn more about creatures we share our planet with. We are engaging in modern Noah’s Ark work. Supporting the land, establishing naturally fruitful habitat, including for ourselves, is essential.

Venus is the 4th of the Pisces stellium. She and Mercury in Taurus, one of Venus’s two signs, are sextile. Venus’s other sign is Libra! Their sea and land combination assures a blessed communication because Libra is social and negotiable, Venus is spiritually gracious in Pisces, can be very giving. Mercury is the planet of neighborly connections, down home chats, laying on of hands, especially in sensible patient Taurus. Give it a chance. Talk it over. Listen a lot, don’t necessarily make immediate decisions. Think it over, get together again in a couple days if possible.

Mercury has the additional importance of being with genius Uranus, the planet of Aquarius. This component carries the communications past the ‘hood! Their specialty is an Earth communications intelligence around the world. Uranus is the planetary networker as well as representing your best friend! From one friend to the next, to people everywhere coming to realize earth’s plight and what it takes to wake people up. And we see it happening via the internet, social media. It’s takes only minutes to learn what is happening around us, boycott, let people know what we think and why, people we don’t know, may never meet, but we have the same beliefs!

Generally, Uranus in Taurus doesn’t miss a moment. He’s quick as lightning, takes in the entire landscape of earth in juxtaposition with the magnificent oceans Jupiter is currently sailing! Earth and Ocean are so intricately related. Earth changes 100% impinge on the Ocean, the receptor of rich organic materials as well as trash and poisons. Fish and humans are so dependent on each other. Harm to one harms all. Jupiter is educating about and defending the ocean and great bodies of water. Uranus is working to implement justifiable, doable, financially feasible programs to keep us all safe from toxins, degradation of soil, to establish clean water flow everywhere. See more!

Chiron in Aries is buzzing like a bee, midpoint between Venus and Mercury/Uranus! He wants healing and teaching now! What do we do to have the most effect in the shortest time?! He wants special new relationships of people with skills who are not afraid to use them. True leaders. He wants people who will do innovative business, who will show us how it can be done! Change right here and now, spreads quickly when people see it happen! Try some new options!

Lucky Pisces New Moon!

Ash Wednesday 12 Pisces 04 March 2 New Moon at 9:35 AM Pacific

Potent 104° Bundle Chart strongly focused on Career, LOVE, and has extraordinary LUCK!

Pisces 2022 New Moon 'Bioluminescence' - Josh Beames Victoria Australia

‘Bioluminescence’ – Josh Beames, taken in Victoria, Australia. Picture 7 of 25 most beautiful Milky Way photos in 2020 ‘Early Summer Night’s Dream’  Life came from the sea…

Thi is the last New Moon that has potently linked at 12 degrees through 2021-22! 2021 Nov, Dec and 2022 Jan 2 and 31/Feb 1, and Mar there are five New Moons that have linked in Scorpio, Sag, Cap, AQ and Pisces. Those of you with chart factors close to 12 degrees will be activated by 7 New Moons from Oct 2021 to March 2022. Jan and March 2022 will have two New Black Moons in HI, AK and Pacific time zones. There is NO New Moon in February 2022. Finish up your goal you set related to the factors at or very near 12 degrees in your chart! This one is the Pisces plum, conjunct Lucky Jupiter!

We have a tight 5 signs 104° New Moon Bundle chart with two stelliums again!!!! There are 3 planets, Venus, Mars and Pluto, all at 27 Capricorn!  FOUR planets, the New Moon conjunct Jupiter, then Neptune, all in PISCES!

Rarely is the base ‘planet’ actually three planets in one degree, a united triple force acting as one! Three principles are acting at once. Those of you with factors in your charts at or a couple of degrees from 27 will definitely feel this! In Capricorn, Father, career, age, retirement, building, structures, laws, will be considered. Cap is the boss and things will get done, celebrate maturity, end and renew with a flourish!  

  • Venus technically is the first. Grace and desire, beauty and gratitude, blessings encourage our action. She’s gifted in Capricorn. Things long sought will be in the works. She is classy and respected for her talent. She has appeal and is good negotiating various diverse factions to working agreements. She enjoys ancient artifacts, adores elders, seeks their comfort. She has a way with enticing those who would give up to rest but not give up, assures funding.
  • Mars is her feisty cohort, partner in crime! He is an up front leader, rights fighter, rescuer! If part of the team is distracted or waylaid, he is there to bring them home. Problem solving for mechanical items, bicycles are his forte. Independence is encouraged no matter the odds. If there is a task requiring quick action, he is fearless and capable. He can work within guidelines and out of the box as needed. Powerful intuition! A fresh start, new beginnings with even historic old tools still doing quite well.
  • Pluto is the fixer. Where Mars is up front, Pluto is the silent partner. He can wheel and deal, make huge sums. He is an adept healer of the deepest wounds. You have to have a deep power of your own to be his mate. Part of his talent is shamanic clearing. In everyday language that translates to removing trash, recycling, remediation. And no job is too small or too big. He works from microscopic research to massive world projects. Extremes and obsessions are natural.Putting it mildly, Venus conjunct Pluto is intense! Venus is attractive whatever sign she is in. Pluto is charismatic no matter what sign or how he looks. There is an inner animal that is simply irresistible, LOL! Pluto may be surprised to find himself enamored with Venus. She touches a chord in him that few do! Imagine the God of Death kneeling at her feet! Venus may long for him, sometimes for years, and he may not give her the time of day. She’s not used to that. They may still have a platonic relationship. Scorpio and Capricorn can honor boundaries, do what’s proper, wait, or never consummate the relationship. So close but so far. They can cheat. Been known to happen. Or they can have an arrangement.What an intense grouping! Sweetie lovey Venus, hot and sexy Mars, charismatic hypnotic tantric Pluto! And Capricorn is at times considered to be the rutty goat, oh my! Keep yourself in a safe place. If you are with a good person, good people, let this inspiring combo carry you with it! Good chance these people will get their way! After all, much has been planned and worked for well before now. They may partner to do powerful knock ’em dead business together! Pluto has the ideas, powerful connections, Mars has the moxie and get it done action, Venus attracts clients and buyers, gathers funds! You may want to sign agreements this New Moon day!

The North Node in Taurus is going to sextile Neptune, the old man of the sea. Neptune has been in his own sign Pisces, so is extra aware, perceptive, insightful. The North Node will be filled with dreams and beauty, longings for more than ever was. Moon’s node is leaning to the Taurus sustainable earthy side of things, and the Capricorn planets want to build with strength, by natural means that will be enduring, simple and cost effective. There’s harmony all around.

The LUCKY FOUR planets Pisces New Moon Stellium! 

Pisces will never be entirely definable. That’s part of what it’s all about. Things you can’t see that change you. Knowing without knowing why. Psychic perception. Discovery because all you really had to do was go there. You were drawn because you sensed someone needed help. The dreamtime is mostly ungovernable. Imagination is a huge option. When you are at sea, with no land in sight, that requires a trust you will get somewhere…There is a letting go and an infinite merging.

Mother Moon and Father Sun are bonded in this spiritual union. She knows his Soul, his whims and fantasies. His loving heart, personal addictions, how much he has given. She admires his remarkable poise when people are frightened. His stupendous drama when making a film or music. It can be touching or resounds loudly cross planet, waking the sleeping from their isolation!

Father Sun knows her, the phenomenal depth of her sensitivity. She sees the Souls of the children, their mothers, the thread of their ancestry, their spiritual path. She can be tender or tough if she sees us ignoring our responsibilities. Small things often make a life and death difference. A glance, a smile, a touch, the gift of a single street side wild flower. Where we live has so much more importance than many realize. We can take on the nature of our surroundings, so choose carefully. That goes for choosing the people in our lives as well. Choose people who are able to support you as a person. She listens to our dreams, gives insights to help us get to our next step, or when to take a leap of Faith!

These two in turn are conjunct LUCKY Jupiter! In old astrology, Jupiter stood for fame and fortune! He is still considered to be happy go lucky, the traveler teacher, delights in storytelling and gambling, especially the horses – he was a Centaur, half man, half horse! Jupiter expands our business, land, plans, length of journey! Sports are natural and keep him healthy! In Pisces, just add the ocean component! Your sailboat wins the race, you get the shipping contract, take the magnificent enchanting cruise, scuba the coral reefs! You may teach marine biology, especially of the big denizens of the seas, the whales. And your career may turn toward protecting the plants of the sea as well. Why not have a splendid oceanside restaurant, sports shop, museum?! Buy a kayak, a sailboat! Jupiter is like an oracle and Pisces is psychic! Foretelling the successes of maritime investments could bring your portfolio to new highs!

And this may be the time to do it! April 12, Jupiter will conjunct Neptune, he in his own sign Pisces! It’s a 166 year event! Once in a lifetime! Outer planet events like this have a 3-day hot period. This one occurs 7:42 AM Pacific, so in this zone count back 11, 10, 9. Those three days and the early am of the 12th are the most powerful. Do something each day. Do some enquiring, go by your intuition. Enquire well in advance and be ready for it! See more!

The lead chart planet is Uranus, the Aquarian planet!

It is in an advantageous Sextile the New Moon and Jupiter! As Jupiter is fame and fortune, Uranus also shows up in charts of famous people with followings and fan clubs! Uranus is the planet of Aquarius the Networker! Fame depends on numbers and if it’s good, it’s good and the word spreads! Uranus in Taurus, Venus’s sign, gains fame for beauty, unique style, the most valuable things, like Earth herself. There is a simplicity and appealing common sense, a grassroots quality everyone innately understands. Change is steadily paced, with a few dramatic boosts that keep it interesting!

Mother Moon in Pisces can see it unfolding. She is comforted by the progress and is steadied herself. She lends her visions, helps when leaders falter, the fallen to remember their cause. She knows the specialness of children and Mothers, the Matriarchy in the network of time. Housing is crucial and Uranus aims to help entire groups at a time. City infrastructures are changing. Moon is wanting food and shelter, for people unable to provide for themselves. Uranus is reaching out with community wide services to keep them off the streets, to be free again, to become their better selves.     

Father Sun lends his Light to show us the spiritual component in every being, each offered in his different way. Uranus recognizes this unique organic gift, draws them like a magnet to a perfect space where that talent is needed. Uranus is the planet of diversity, no judgements! Some say we all have arrived at this point in time by divine agreement to fulfill dreams when their time has come. The Father in Pisces is relieved and delighted to see his inspirations leading the way! 

Chiron in Aries is awesome. As a healer, he is picking up the fallen on life’s marathon, the leaders with burnout, those with accidents, emergencies along the way, interferes with obsessive behaviors. Many of his clients are having unique issues in these new times. His immediate responses are filled with intuitive insights. It’s time for healers to heal just not themselves and their clients, but each other. Learning of one person’s experiences can help many others. Gather up and share even if you are, or maybe because, you are so independent.
  
Chiron in Aries is midpoint SemiSextile New Moon and Uranus! He has always fought for what is better, but now has fiery Aries to back him. If they slow down he lights up and shows them what to remember of the past that got them here, the Path in front of them. If he can make leaps, so can they! Pisces is happy with Chiron’s leadership, taking his vision to heart! Uranus is glad to see the leaders Chiron inspires coming his way! Uranus sweeps them under his great wings, talks them up with his futuristic humanitarian, planetary plans, then swoops them all forward around the world! It’s magic, moving and marvelous!

Uranus is related with Saturn and Mercury because they are in his sign, Aquarius! Mercury is WITH Saturn at the SAME degree, within 3 minutes of space! That’s TIGHT! They are ONE, MERGED! You can be super depressed, boo hoo, I have no friends and nothing to love for, OR working you butt off saving the world! That, of course, is a formidable task, and you are allowed a few dark moments, but Saturn is demanding, Aquarius changes in a flash; Mercury gets bored and is inquisitive, so I don’t think your case will last long. Lift your face, splash water on your face, stand up and breathe. You got this. Now, it you are nervous and frightened, get help. That’s what friends are for. If you really don’t have friends, get some other help and see about making some friends. Uranus, that friend planet, is over there in Taurus. Taurus can be gentle, supportive, just sit with you. But don’t abuse the privilege either. Ask for simple comfortable ways to get moving again without ignoring your inner needs.

Mercury in Aquarius is greased lightning intelligence. With Saturn it may seem stunted, or exceptionally research oriented, fast to find profound solutions. It may be resonant with building sustainable collaborative communities with extraordinary efficiency. Elders with experience may find super niches well suited to their talents. Leadership may take surprising turns in favor of humanitarian projects, take on genius consultants, implement methods ahead of their time, take the lead, be the first!

Uranus IS the lead planet! He is a wild card planet in generally steady Taurus! With Uranus backed by strong-as-a-bull Taurus valuable changes, both simple and complex, will be inevitable. Lead planet Uranus in Taurus has a genius simplicity to it and things go much faster than expected with Uranus finessing it. Uranus, the prime networker, is getting the word out to people worldwide. It’s not just the functionality of networking, but the meaningful content, essential human rights, the ecological humanitarian efforts. The territory being covered has great range and lasting alliances are being formed, loopholes being closed to prevent future losses.

Uranus is the planet of freedom, evolution, the futurist. It works as an ultimate loner or in behalf of humanity, networking across continents. Genius, research, invention are it’s talents. Awakening and Enlightenment are its invitations. We see the Uranus in Taurus Earth all around us, feel the connection with the totality of the whole climate. We stop to chat along the way, agree about what differences may be required to heal, maintain and secure what is so precious. Friendships may come and go, but we hope Earth as we know it now is with us lifelong and for our children’s children too.

Many 2021 factors had an Aquarian component, as does also this 2022 New Moon closely connected with the Aquarian planet Uranus and Mercury and Saturn in Aquarius! We are preparing for Pluto’s entry into Aquarius in 2023. We are more aware now that some connections need reworking, fixing, updating. Some ideas have long term implications worth working for, are financially productive, spiritually satisfying! Make notes then network like crazy to get more ideas to complete the package, make it whole. Select who will work together, and get it rolling!

New Moon’s by nature start new cycles. Pisces is the last sign, but inspires the first sign, Aries, with his visions. As the last sign, Pisces is a sign of maturity, a collection of the wisdom of all the signs before him. He is well steeped in and well founded by his deeper kind of intelligence. He has the capacity to see, even be, the helpless sufferers, how they actually can change. He sees the fortitude to sustain in hard times. He notes the celebrations of success as countless falls were overcome against the odds. The old hymn says ‘Nobody knows the trouble I’ve seen…’ Do be kind. The ‘visions’ Pisces often sees are his compassionate wishes, the collective dream for many Souls. Some dreams may be but a whisper in the night, or a glimmer upon awakening, but they are the seeds of new beginnings.

We don’t always think of Pisces, sign of the seas, as a sign of Light. But, do notice the beauty of the bioluminescence in the image above. Think of the amazing brilliant colors of fishes, animals, shells, seaweeds and plants, coral reefs. The powerful black and white of the orcas! There are soft subtle quiet gray days, huge clouds, stunning sky spanning sunrises and sunsets, the beauty of the fathomless blue sky to the deep green seas. With no city lights, millions of shockingly bright night stars show the way on moonless nights! Starlight shimmers across the sea to forever. Pisces is so magnificently alive!

We thank you for your beauty and our deeper connections with each other. Blessed be.

4 Behenian FIXED STARS! 

Wiki says: The Behenian fixed stars, used by alchemists, are a selection of fifteen stars considered especially useful for magical applications in the medieval astrology of Europe and the Arab world. Their name derives from Arabic bahman, “root,” as each was considered a source of astrological power for one or more planets. Each is also connected with a gemstone and plant that would be used in rituals meant to draw the star’s influence (e.g., into a talisman). When a planet was within six degrees of an associated star, this influence was thought to be particularly strong.

Erik Roth reminds us: The Behenian stars are stars that have been shared as magical but it is really all stars and planets have their own magic and can be utilized through symbolic, psychic, spiritual and otherwise magical purposes in our lives.  The near-infinite sky dome is a part of our lives and has been since our very distant ancestors hundreds of thousands of years looked upon them and not only wondered what they were but also from a place of seeking, of finding meaning and seeing something beyond themselves.

Alphecca, one of the 15 Behenian Stars! This star is sometimes called Gemma, the jewel of the crown. A brilliant white star, it is also called the Pearl of the Crown. It is the Alpha star of Corona Borealis, the Northern Crown, at 12 Scorpio 35 (2021) is trine the New Moon! The Pisces Sun and Moon are making magic with fellow water sign deep Scorpio, sign of the Underworld. Healing secrets are revealed, shared, likely long lasting special partnerships formed. Scorpio’s treasures may fund Pisces causes. What may have seemed futile, finds a supportive response and Pisces carries it on into the world beyond expectations. Rising from our own ashes, Pisces washes us clean. We our liberated to make our wishes known.

Alphecca marks the loop, or knot, of the ribbon along which are fastened the buds, flowers, or leaves of the wreath shown in early drawings with two long out-streaming ends. Corona Borealis represents the garland given by Venus to Ariadne on the occasion of her marriage to Bacchus after she had been forsaken by Theseus. Manilius said it ‘sparkles in the mid forehead. He was quite taken with the Crown. See his eloquent thoughts about its relationship with Virgo! Jamie at Astrology King says: it is of the nature of Venus and Mercury (idealistic, psychic, handsome, neat, lovable, refined, genteel, intelligent). It gives honor, dignity and poetical and artistic ability.

With Moon: Public honor and dignity, suffers through law, partners and neighbors, trouble through underhanded dealings of enemies but eventual triumph over them, bad for love affairs, some faithful friends, greatly esteemed by Venus and Mercury people. (Robson) Honors and preferment.

With Sun: Active and brilliant mind, self-seeking, subject to scandal that does not affect the position. Honors and preferment.

Alphecca is opposite Uranus, who is in further good aspect, sextile the New Moon, rich with opportunities! With Uranus Robson says: Selfish, mental affliction and violence at end of life, psychic power, suffering through occultism, deceptive, many false friends, small inheritance obtained with difficulty, losses by law, enemies and mercurial affairs, sorrow through children or an adopted child, domestic trouble through own acts, danger of a violent death.

We have come a long way in our thinking about Uranus than when it was first discovered. Think in modern terms of the benefits of this planet and combine that with the issues Robson perceived. Uranus rules electronics and computers, networking of all kinds, humanitarian efforts, freedom, awakening, change, evolution. Alphecca’s charm and intelligence work well with so many opportunities!

Aquarian Abraham Lincoln 0°03′, and J. Paul Getty 1°36′, had Alphecca with Uranus. See more at Astrology King!

Fixed Stars Algorab 13 Libra – is YOD, inconjunct the New Moon and Jupiter in Pisces, and Uranus in Taurus. Adjustments will be made between these three signs and three planets! Beliefs, the manner of serving people are assessed. Should they be mothered, counseled to help each other, stand up on their own? Education can help, perhaps, and choosing supportive friendships an connections can make a marked difference. Planning and pre prepping helps sort out the kinks.

There may be delays of delivery, a loss of value or someone important missing. I imagine few of you have done much work with or even heard of Algorab! It is on the right wing of the Raven, in the constellation Corvus, the Crow. If you love the intelligent Corvids this may bode well for you, if not, all the nasties you hear of them may be part of the Truth.

Fixed star Sirius at 14 Cancer, and Algorab, travel together, challengingly always square! Sirius is the brightest star, so has mojo just for being! Family and relationships may be at odds.

  • In the US Algorab’s rep is not so good. Astrologer Jamie Partridge summarizes: Algorab is one of the 15 magic related Behenian Fixed Stars. Its image is a raven, snake or negro dressed in black. It makes the wearer angry, bold, courageous and a backbiter, gives bad dreams, the power of summoning or driving away evil spirits and protection from winds and the malice of men and devils. – Whew! That’s impressive! If you sense those things in advance it can be a blessed forewarning.
  • Quite differently he also states the 28th Chinese Xiù – 軫 (Zhěn) Chariot thinks:  This is the celestial Carriage and it represents the transport of tributes from foreign lands to the Emperor, thus the accumulation of wealth. It also presides over travel of all kinds and vehicles. It also presaged favorable winds and an end to storms. Events in business bring great profit and everything done heralds fortunate returns. Paying homage to ancestors will honor one with a “Dragon Child”. It is also a great day for marriages and births.
  • But some modern astrologers concur that it shows up in terrorism events! See the details at Astrology King, Jamie’s site! Don’t ‘terrorize’ yourself or provoke others; help others and yourself to be safe. Be aware of triggers and danger signals and leave; talk later if possible. Use your intelligence in a good way.
  • Jupiter exactly trines Sirius, the New Moon is very close! By the old star lovers, this would be considered a major plus! Besides being the night sky’s brightest star, Sirius enjoys a terrific reputation for the most part, but also called the Dog Star, watch out for dog bites, LOL! It is another of the 15 Behenian stars. Sirius is of the nature of Jupiter and Mars (high ambition, pride, love of power, grandeur of view.) It gives honor, renown, wealth, ardor, faithfulness, devotion, passion and resentment, and makes its natives custodians, curators and guardians. It gives honor, the goodwill and favor of men and the airy spirits, and the power to pacify nobles and others. And to tease you, it rules beryl, savine, mugwort, dragonwort and the tongue of a snake! See a lot more at Astrology King!, including ties with famous people!Jupiter with Sirius: Business success, journeys, help from relatives, ecclesiastical preferment. [1]This point develops large family ties for these individuals. It keeps them tied to the family circle, including all the relatives. They are generally born into a large family, and all those in the family circle are also interested in the large families themselves. Great emotional ties are developed so that whatever happens to one affects them all, and all respond with exaggerated emotions.Sun with Sirius: Success in business, occupation connected with metals or other martial affairs, domestic harmony.Moon with Sirius: Success in business, influential friends of opposite sex, favorable for the father, good health, beneficial changes in home or business.

Venus, Mars and Pluto all Trine Fixed Star Algol. Pluto trines her at 26 Taurus 27  2020-24!

Pluto is of Scorpio, the sign opposite Algol’s sign Taurus, but Pluto now in Capricorn gentles that opposition because Pluto in Capricorn trines, favors Algol. Pluto rules death and rebirth while Algol is considered to bear misfortune, often death. They understand each other. Neither is to be messed with. Capricorn is noted for facing reality squarely.

Algol is the baddest Star according to some! It is a rare triple star and eclipsing binary, which means it blinks, and changes brightness, even ‘disappears!’ It is the Medusa’s Head, carried in the left hand of the Hero, Perseus. On the dark side, ‘It causes misfortune, violence, decapitation, hanging, electrocution and mob violence, and gives a dogged and violent nature that causes death to the native or others. It is the most evil star in the heavens.’ Some say it’s not the ‘bad’ within us but pushing through blockages to the beauty beyond is what really matters. We can face our demons with sincere intent and life changes for the better! See more!

Many give Algol a wide berth, plan carefully astrologically. To be on the safe side, Astrologers often allow 5 degrees for the effective range with Algol while most stars get only 1 degree range. If you have chart factors in that 5 degree range, one way or another you are connected with Algol. If you have questions, do see your astrologer.

Pluto is now at 27° Capricorn 49 and moves only 3° a year. Pluto retrogrades back and forth through the degrees as it travels Capricorn. Allowing a 3 degree range, anytime Pluto is between 23 Cap 27 to 29 Cap 27, it will trine Algol at 26 Taurus 27. That period started Feb 2020 – virus time, and will go through Jan 2024. It is now continuously trine Algol. Exact trines are formed 5 times: on Spring Equinox Mar 20, & June 5, 2021, and in 2022 Jan 17, 2022, Aug 29, Nov 16.

One hopes the trine, a good aspect, bends the relationship with Algol to a more satisfactory outcome. Earth signs are a bit ‘indelible.’ Their effects are more long lasting. Keep turning the tables on Algol’s bad rep. Recent violence, covid deaths, may leave raw feelings of grief, bitterness, betrayal. Freedom is still at issue. Stay calm in the face of violence, shift your connections so better can happen, turn a page, try out some new possibilities. Know your rights and choose safety unless/even if you are trying to save someone’s life. If you are the offender, get all the help you can to change. Many a fine leader has come from a dark place. Pluto understands much of this.

Venus and Mars will currently, briefly activate and bless Algol. She may not be used to this and ignore or rebuff these minor planets with a swift cuff. But if it works, the old one may show them a thing or two. Don’t crowd her or be put off by her manner. Listen cleanly even if you are scared. Take it easy and don’t escalate or think she loves you. Go by your instinct, not wishful thinking.

Algol’s connection with the Galactic Center!

Algol and the GC are in lockstep! Each being star factors, they each take 72 years to move a degree. Currently Algol is at 26 Taurus and the GC is 27 Sag. Whenever one is activated, they both are. Algol and the GC have an oblique position (inconjunct), aware, but out of the corner of your eye. That position is common in the charts of psychics. They ‘see’ peripheral factors that influence the outcome. Inconjuncts sometimes lead you on a goose chase, but maybe to greener pastures. You do get a greater perspective. Even if you go back home, you are different. You have perhaps made new friends and associates that can carry that sector for you, or be a link to that sector when you need it. Excellent adjustments are in the offing. Destination Algol would not usually be a conscious choice, but sometimes it is part of our Path and it just happens. Square your shoulders and do it, eyes wide open. Fascinating encounter.

Oh, yes, Algol strikes fear in a lot of hearts, but so does the GC when people find out it is one gigantic black hole!!! You could vanish in an instant! You astral travelers might should be careful? I like to think of formidable Algol as the GC’s Guardian. Algol is considered to be a super powerful feminine force. It would take such an entity to protect the mighty GC! Algol is ready to stomp her feet and ‘invite’ you to travel, or takes you another place once the GC’s info has been bestowed, a place that needs the information the most.

Algol is in Taurus, the first Venus sign, has a sensual touch, loves earthy beauty, sculpts her own existence! The profound Galactic Center is in fiery Sagittarius, the sign between Scorpio and Capricorn. The GC is enjoying lots of laughs and adventure stories, sends rays and bolts of information we are barely capable of downloading let alone understand, and it’s not on anyone’s schedule! Capricorn is hosting Pluto, is trine Algol in Taurus and semi sextile The Galactic Center, piloting the whole scenario of these three powerful factors. By nature he is a no nonsense old Master and gives orders, expecting things to get done. All these three have street creds and are impressive, but Capricorn has hung out with the best and functions well at this level. He treats them more equally both to himself and each other. It’s his job.

Ordinarily, astrologers pay little attention to semisextiles, but 3 planets semisextile the Galactic center at the same degree is worth noting! The GC in Sagittarius is in the sign behind the Capricorn Venus, Mars, Pluto stellium. The semisextile can bring health challenges, but also favorable finances!

On a fine New Moon night, things are blended, no Moonlight or shadows. There is a certain equality as the playing field is equalized. It seems more quiet, even subdued. Without the daylight contrasts and sharp edges we are more receptive… Even if there is a breeze, there are no moving shadows… Sleep can be deeper.
Our dreams are more real and we merge with them more completely… Sometimes we feel different when we wake up and don’t always know why. New Moons in Pisces are mystical. The magic happens.

So many magical connections with stars and planets! Much Love and Be well.

Virgo/Pisces Full Worm Moon March 18!

Thursday March 18, 12:18 AM Pacific, 27 Virgo/Pisces 40

Spiritual healing, organizing and good business!

Virgo-Pisces 2022 Full Worm Moon Cosmos
Full Moon and Waterside Cosmos Flowers Light the Night!

Playful spring celebration Saint Patrick’s Day March 17, Virgo/Pisces Full Moon March 18! Up early Virgo plants the earliest veggie plants, while Pisces may be sleeping in after last night’s frolicking!

We are at the last Full Moon in a SIX months 27 Degree Sequence! They started in 2021. Oct, Nov, Dec, continued in 2022 Jan, Feb, and March, now concludes a ‘season’ of six Full Moons at 27 degrees Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo. The Full Moons at 24 to 29 degrees, continue to activate fixed star Algol and the Galactic Center at 26 and 27 and their Pluto connections strongly 8 times Sep 2021 to April 2022. Fixed stars Polaris – the North StarBetelgeuse in Orion are at 28 Gemini, and Procyon 25 Cn 47, will give varying additional effects per their type of connections with those signs. Note where these factors fall in your chart, which house(s). That is the section of your life that they activate. Check with your astrologer for further personal details.

The Full Moon at 27 Virgo is engaged with them all! She is the potent handle of a 104 degree bucket chart that has two stelliums, 3 planets in Aquarius and 4 in Pisces! She makes a grand earth trine with powerful Pluto, in maturity at 28 Capricorn, and Algol in Taurus!

As with the Jan and Feb Full Moons, Mama Moon is the Handle of another Bucket chart, all the other planets on the other side of the chart! April will be the last one of this consecutive four. Buckets can scoop or pour, receive or send forth. Planets that stand alone, called Singletons, like this are emphasized.

Full Moons reach as far across the table as possible, reaching out, spreading the news, collaborating with the other side, letting them know our thoughts in person. Yes, there are separations for a while, but separately, uninfluenced, we gain perspective of other points of view, the best of which we can take home to our tribe. It’s only 2 weeks or so until we are back together at the New Moon. As the handle to a bucket chart, we are the honorable seeker, representative, negotiator, share the goods. We funnel valuable information home, strengthen our people. Virgo is discriminatory, so we get only the best, what’s clean and true, what’s ready to use.

Sun in Pisces is precisely opposite, the primary receiver. He filters even more specifically with his super senses, not only the data but its intentional implications. What will it do for the group, what will be needed to incorporate it. Will the group remain in balance. Is it too early, need to be held for later integration. Does it have more value than at first perceived?! The group is watching keenly to see if it meets his specs and what their part is if approved.

In this case, Pluto in Capricorn is standing capably at the sidelines between them smoothing the hand off, subsequent transitions. He has financial prowess, looks for what undermines success or brings it to flourish. Some things can be remediated beyond belief! Fix it/don’t waste Virgo may have stumbled on just such an opportunity! The accountant probably also paid a low price for it and the venture is well worth following up on. Documents are secured, Pisces imagines the process and possible images and it gets done. Pluto may secure long term contacts and relationships, both business and personal. Virgo carries the medicine basket. Pluto is the shaman of internal and psychological healings. Pisces’s meaningful dreams take the people past their troubles to inspiration that fills their Souls!

Pluto is doubly important because he is the Bucket’s base planet. He cleans up messes, keeps people moving forward, focused and working at things that please their spirits. He knows their secrets and gets them through their fears and resistance. His financial instincts are a blessing. Messy relationships can be cleared, death and endings are normalized so we remain functional. Letting go lightens our path.

On the other side, Moon is trine the great fierce feminine force Algol. Moon, Pluto and Algol are all feminine, and respected powers. Moon in Virgo loves it when her bookkeeping tallies up on the plus side. Moon in Virgo believes in herself. Investors like Pluto come to her for the truth and financial parameters for their most important investments. She is careful with Algol but admires her as well for her no nonsense ways. She’s careful because she senses the danger like that of a wounded animal. She knows some of the old hurts can be healed, but the pain has been long endured and can be triggered to cause lashing out. Go gently; be ready to move far enough away quickly. If you can’t do that, don’t approach.

Sun in adaptable Pisces is midpoint sextile between Pluto and Algol! He senses how the tides are flowing, advises Pluto regarding current trends, future likelihoods. He may surprise Algol and help her see herself in his reflection as he merges with her. He is aware of her story without her telling him and she is disarmed by his sense of genuine caring. Algol

Sextiles are aspects of opportunity. There may be a letting down of the guard among them all, Moon, Sun, Pluto, Algol. She, the unseeable one, may have their back. She may ‘push’ them to more powerful places than they had thought of, even Pluto, the old Power Master in Father Capricorn!

Moon and Sun are T Square the Galactic Center. Moon in Virgo may be having none of that Galactic glitz. She’s practical and likes her routine she has worked hard to have. The GC has no conception of her doings. The Sun, a star himself, in Pisces is the more likely recipient. He dances to enchantment! He is 100% curious though caring causes do call him and he may dedicate his life to them. He in turn will pass helpful bits on to Mother Moon at moments he thinks she will listen. The Galactic Center is the center of our galaxy. It is a monumental power center encompassing huge knowledge. More on the Galactic Center! (Note, Jupiter is now in Pisces.)

The Stelliums are like little engines that keep the interior of the Bucket moving. They define our purposes. The Aquarian one starts with Mars and Venus. Mars in Aquarius is about as fast as it gets. His intelligence is lightning quick and seems to surpass intuition! Maybe it does! He is eager beyond words to get into action, change things, try new things. He leads no matter where he is! Venus was just with him and still feels his hot glance! Inspired by his courage and zest, she doesn’t slow down one bit! She tells people of his talents and calls back to him for advice when the people need to hear more details about how it all works. He is quite an unusual type, and she is an exotic beauty! It’s easy for her to get in and out of trouble, LOL! We forgive her because she is smart and knows why those things have infinite value.

Mars and Venus at 9 and 11 Aquarius are sextile Chiron in speedy Aries! Mars is the planet of Aries, and both Mars and Venus are in light speed Aquarius! No problem keeping up! They bring their friends and Chiron is delightedly healing and teaching them right and left! Chiron’s ideas give inspiration. He laughs and shouts at them,  laughed t wake them up further, and right sharp sends them on their ways! He wants them to know more about how to help themselves and carry on without him! Burnout is a symptom of these times needing so much dedication. Mars and Venus in Aquarius intrigue Chiron to think about a master application where many can be helped at once. A zoom of zoom groups around the world with many leaders and topics sounds good!

Mars and Venus also square Uranus the Aquarian planet. Friendships are more likely than relationships, though relationships are likely to cross their minds. But there is so much happening so quickly! That square is a classic divorce aspect, fascinating but no binding ties. Love ’em and leave ’em, forgotten. In the name of freedom, they move on. As friends they can discuss things more easily, but still, even the friendships may not be long lasting. Just too different.

Their rebellious little wildcard Aquarian square may interfere with Uranus’s position as the Bucket’s lead planet. Uranus is the planet of Aquarius, so they might delight in giving him a hard time. They ‘know’ him. In Taurus he has patience, but if you push the Bull too far, you may regret it and be sat on. He’s ‘knows’ them too. If they decide to be helpful, they may bring him the latest alerts of protection needed, opportunities. They push him to act in a timely fashion.

Generally, Uranus in Taurus doesn’t miss a moment. He’s quick as lightning, takes in the entire landscape of earth in juxtaposition with the magnificent oceans Jupiter is currently sailing! Earth and Ocean are so intricately related. Earth changes 100% impinge on the Ocean, the receptor of rich organic materials as well as trash and poisons. Fish and humans are so dependent on each other. Harm to one harms all. Jupiter is educating about and defending the ocean and great bodies of water. Uranus is working to implement justifiable, doable, financially feasible programs to keep us all safe from toxins, degradation of soil, to establish clean water flow everywhere. See more!

Saturn in Aquarius is a 29 year affair. He is now the purveyor of Aquarian genius, harnessing its power, anchoring many futuristic ideas for long term growth. He is learning more about how to get a team working well. He has become more of a philosopher, humanitarian, sees the climate changes and factors them in. Friends mean ever so much more to him these days. Collaboration, not just skills, or being on time, gets a lot more done. Parenting is changing, methods of learning are changing. Aging is changing. Careers are changing. It’s like a whole new world, and it is! In some ways we are vitally more responsible. In other ways we are more free than ever before through electronics, the internet, drones and self driving vehicles.

The Second Stellium, in Pisces, has changed since the New Moon! Mercury is now with Jupiter; the Sun has moved on to the end of Pisces. Mercury has a lot to say generally, but with Jupiter it will bring many things to light because Jupiter has even more to say!!! Jupiter has big ideas, is translating Pisces music and visions into words a mile a minute literally as he travels the seas and sands, the spirits of time! Logical Mercury in intuitive Pisces is doing some translating himself. Jupiter and Pisces are both storytellers, so Mercury best quickly record those yarns and stories of glorious exploits, bets and shameless lies! Jupiter, an adept educator, may know history through myths that haven’t yet been written down, that are important to be passed on.

Mercury has also just been sextile with Uranus in Taurus. While Mars and Venus may have caused trouble, Mercury can have cleared the air. In Pisces he may have watched that little scenario. He may have distracted them and shown them some images to clarify what Uranus is up against and caused them to decide to help. Mercury likely understood more about Uranus than Uranus thought, so can reword some of his vague futuristic ideas into daily palaver and make it sound sensibly idealistic, doable after all! Mercury was likely inspired by the remarkable insights and scope of the Uranian mantle, from environmental to organic human rights. Uranus might do well to put Mercury on his payroll!

On a daily basis, Jupiter is having the time of his life! He thinks of the old schooners, undersea reefs, taking a cruise, visiting the peoples of the world, starting a maritime museum of natural history, teaching about seaweeds and marine animals! Uranus in Taurus has his toes in the sand at the beach, feeling the rush of the waves, appreciating the vast sunrises and sunsets. He loves how the land animals come to the inlets, river banks, the edges of the bays for water at night and dawn, how birds nest at water’s edge, migrators seasonally come and go. He considers himself to be their friend and vows for them to be safe and free. He sees the land changes and more coming. Preserves will be set up, and as we plant milkweed for Monarchs and see their population recovery, so can we do more for others as we learn more about creatures we share our planet with. We are engaging in modern Noah’s Ark work. Supporting the land, establishing naturally fruitful habitat, including for ourselves, is essential.

2022’s Promise, the astonishing 166 year Jupiter conjunct Neptune April 12! Jupiter is now only 5 degrees of Neptune definitely in active connection! Stories started now will max out around April 12! Jupiter amps up the magic, the mystic, mythical! Jupiter is with the compassionate saviors, traveling with sufferers and saints! His Luck will help dreams come true around the world. Intuition will be rampant with many insightful epiphanies. Big news will bring awareness of plights, successes, important Truths, discoveries. The waters of the world will take on further importance, whether temperatures, pollution affecting food chains, natural disasters. How we travel the seas, oceanic shipping factors will be addressed. Ocean sports, seaside businesses, spas and retreats will bring unprecedented numbers.

Jupiter can be broad minded; Neptune is infinite, a rainbow of inspiration! There are plenty of wandering, sometimes lost, Souls in the galaxy. Jupiter is funny, lucky, optimistic, sees the Great Plan for the future! He can cheer Neptune up when needed. Neptune entices Jupiter, so easy to do, to sweep into the world of spiritualism, psychic perception. This dimension is bigger than anything Jupiter ever imagined! Jupiter may go to church, but Neptune is the Universe! Jupiter is filled with ideas. Jupiter, the horse lover, wants to harness that Neptune energy, make it more accessible, incorporate it into our world plans. The implication of the insights are enormous. It’s a dream and a vision. The insights include ways to do it well and in a timely fashion, so it may be much closer to happening than we think! There will be a boost with their 166 year conjunction April 12! Set some special time aside to be with it and pick a special location too! See your AstroLocality astrologer!

Neptune is sextile/trine the Taurus/Scorpio Moon’s Nodes. The Nodes move in a retrograde direction so will cross Neptune’s degrees imminently. The North represents our ascension. In Taurus, there is a personal condition of value to be fulfilled. The past is when we shared love and monies with others. This time we need to take some in a good way for ourselves. We were in the dark, a good place – the Great Mystery, but now it’s time for the light of day, the sunlight that grows crops, makes beauty we can see and touch. This combination of nodes are working with money and values. Scorpio South Nodes was the sign before this life, worked powerfully for better or worse with others in financial situations. There could have been thievery, greed, or poverty and death. This time Taurus is the goal. Time to value your body, your personal assets, make money, stand up for yourself, not necessarily for others. Just be sure to get your basic fair share in pocket. Take care of yourself, your own family. Make sure you own your possessions, that they don’t own you. Neptune makes us know what we have missed, senses an omit we can remedy. Helps us see our fears, address them. If you can see them, you can heal them.

Pluto, Algol, Galactic Center! Pluto is now at 28° Capricorn and moves only 3° a year. Pluto retrogrades back and forth through the degrees as it travels Capricorn. Allowing a 3 degree range, anytime Pluto is between 23 Cap 27 to 29 Cap 27, it will trine fixed star Algol at 26 Taurus 27. That period started Feb 2020 – virus time, and will go through Jan 2024. It is now continuously trine Algol. Exact trines are formed 5 times: on Spring Equinox Mar 20, & June 5, 2021, and in 2022 Jan 17, 2022, Aug 29, Nov 16.

March 23, 2023 Pluto enters Aquarius, a 248 year event! Then through 2044 there will be significant world changes. Right now is the time to be strengthening our Aquarian and Uranian people, factors in our own charts! Pay attention to charts like this Full Moon’s Aquarian planets, and aspects to the Aquarian planet Uranus, our current lead planet!

Capricorn New Year New SuperMoon 2022! 

Sunday Jan 2 at 10:33 AM Pacific, 12 Capricorn 20!

This is an unpredictable New SuperMoon! Be alert, flexible, look for the openings!

2022 Capricorn New SuperMoon Cathedral Rock Sedona

Heber Lopez’s phenomenal Sedona image of the Milky Way and Cathedral Rock speaks to the Winter Solstice return of the Light! See it and other remarkable images at his page on Fine Art America!

This is the first lunar event after Winter Solstice, first 2022 lunar event, first New Moon! Now the days are getting longer, there is a natural response as days lengthen, an inkling of warming. We want to try our new ideas!! Maybe you have a goal this year, to have a career, business or service that more fits your Spirit, takes all your molecules to do it and you love every minute! Building in some form, architecture, working with elders, historical endeavors, mountaineering, renovation, remediation, rescues. Restructuring, micro sizing, science, research, the function of time. Matters of dignity and respect, fear or shame, losses of loved ones. Perhaps you would like to become an apprentice, or the Master. 

This New Moon potently links through 2022! 2021 Nov, Dec and 2022 Jan 2 and 31, and Mar there are five New Moons at 12 degrees in Scorpio, Sag, Cap AQ and Pisces. Those of you with chart factors close to 12 degrees will be activated by 7 New Moons from Oct 2021 to March 2022. Jan and March 2022 will have two New Moons in Pacific time zone. There is NO New Moon in February 2022. Set a goal related to the factors at or very near 12 degrees in your chart and approach it progressively from every angle, every sign!

This is an unpredictable New SuperMoon! Be alert, flexible, look for the openings! 

We have a loose 147° New Moon Bundle chart with a two conjunction 4-planet stellium in Capricorn. The base planet is Mars in rambunctious Sagittarius; the lead planet is Uranus, a wild card in generally steady Taurus! Venus, though dependable Capricorn, is retrograde working revisions and updates. Mercury and Jupiter have just changed signs, at 0 degrees, on new tracks. New signs bring a change of focus. It’s not like either of them has never been in these new signs before, it’s that the outer planets aren’t where they used to be.   

Bundle charts, concentrated in a small slice of the wheel, in few signs around the wheel, are often super focused. This one has six signs because of its spread. The focus it does have is the Capricorn stellium, cluster of planets. And within the stellium, the New SuperMoon Capricorn conjunction is united at 12° sextile in a same degree semi sextile Saturn, Capricorn’s planet. We will build new human infrastructure as well as buildings and highways. Saturn is currently in Aquarius, an unpredictable sign of genius that Saturn is trying to harness to good use! The SuperMoon has just passed a trine, the most favorable astrological aspect, with Uranus, the Aquarian planet, humanitarian networker, evolutionist, inventor! They have seen the new Uranian plans, talked over how remarkable and sensible they will be to implement. Capricorn is impressed. Sun gives his approval to work together. Mother Moon loves to see the community being taken care of and hopes the children will get on board too.

The second Capricorn conjunction is Venus Rx with Pluto. We will get things done that are worth the money, sweet rewards! Venus is retrograding away, but she is carrying Pluto’s mark! Pluto’s intensity and life and death perspective is not forgotten. Venus wants improvements, renovation, remediation of land, buildings, business, investments. They may pay off handsomely long term, but be immediately costly. Some fundraising is called for. In personal matters, relationships, Venus with Pluto adds an uncanny depth with a Capricorn reality that can’t be denied. Sometimes we need to accept being loved. Other times, it really never was love, or is ending. Venus grace and kindness will be needed.

Jan 5 Venus Rx will sextile Neptune again and knows more why the Soul wants what it wants. A difficult reality brings compassion, calls for help. There may be a realization of karmic shades of responsibilities in our relationships. It’s a gift and a blessing to care so deeply, sometimes soulmates, Soul to Soul. Artistic creators may be astounded by what they channel to this dimension. Neptune the dreamer is in his own sign Pisces, the realm of faeries, angels, mermaids, the seas of the world! Neptune is nuances, being swept by the tides, spiritual capacity, the music of the Soul. Neptune is immersion and invisibility, immense and nothing, lost in the nighttime fog, addiction, daytime bliss, ecstasy, humility. Neptune is unity, sacred sacrifice.

In addition to Venus Rx, Jan 14 Mercury retrogrades in Aquarius and their 15 day DOUBLE RETROGRADE begins. Mercury in AQ is pure genius, but also purely unpredictable as electrifying ideas cross their mind! Venus goes direct/forward, Jan 29, ending the double retrograde.

The base planet Mars in Sagittarius is instigator and optimist! He loves new beginnings and enjoys Sagittarian perspectives, to encourage them to happen. Consulting abroad brings knowledge, even blueprints! Planning goes quickly and it’s a joy, progress inspiring!

New Moons and Uranus! Since Virgo’s New Moon all the New Moons have been strongly connected with Uranus! There is no New Moon in February. March and the March/April New Moons are close and they are conjunct Uranus in April, finishing their sequence! Each New Moon is touched by the Aquarian planet, contributing to the preparation for Pluto’s 2023 move into Aquarius. The planetary connections with Uranus at each New Moon indicate the particular piece it plays that time. Uranus, the lead outer planet, steadily leads but not where the New Moon expects!

Lead planet Uranus in Taurus has a genius simplicity to it and things go much faster than expected. People are pretty surprised at the breakthroughs brought by the recent Saturn square Uranus! Everyone is rooting out what was holding them back! Mercury just into Aquarius, Uranus’s sign is taking up the thread of connections, getting the word out to the people worldwide. It’s not just the functionality of networking, but the meaningful content, essential human rights, the ecological humanitarian efforts. The territory being covered has great range and lasting alliances are being formed.

Uranus is the planet of freedom, evolution, the futurist. It works as an ultimate loner or in behalf of humanity, networking across continents. Genius, research, invention are it’s talents. Awakening and Enlightenment are its invitations. We see the Uranus in Taurus Earth all around us, feel the connection with the totality of the whole climate. We stop to chat along the way, agree about what differences may be required to heal, maintain and secure what is so precious. Friendships may come and go, but we hope Earth as we know it now is with us lifelong and for our children’s children too.

This is the first lunar event with Jupiter back in transcendent Pisces. Jupiter is in Pisces every 12 years. Jupiter previewed Pisces May to July 2021. This time, starting Dec 28, does the whole sign super quickly by May 10! It will then retrograde and return to Pisces about seven weeks Nov and Dec. Get to work, give now, that dreams will come true then!

Mercury is potently semi sextile Jupiter, with both at 0 degrees! Zero is the opening to the future with no limitations! With Mercury in Aquarius, the futurist, and Jupiter the Seer, they survey the possibilities, plenty of amazing new ideas in the offing! Jupiter expands Mercury’s perception even more! Mercury and Jupiter rule opposite signs, Gemini and Sagittarius, the facts and what they mean! Mercury in Aquarius is super scientific, ultra-logical, has remarkable insights, is wickedly beyond the range of normal thinking. It’s a form of psychic intelligence, some call ‘Knowing.’ Jupiter has far vision, lucky instincts, and in Pisces brings in the psychic arena of things that don’t make sense or aren’t ‘sensible’ experiences – dreams, epiphanies, visions, but often indicate the truth. It’s common ground to artists and musicians. Jupiter, the epic traveler, takes in the range of all points and fits them together for common purpose, makes a step by step plan that they all can freely update as they try it out! Totally dynamic! Mercury puts words to all this magic and relays their progress to the world, sometimes making headlines!  

Chiron in Aries is active on his own. As a healer, he is picking up the fallen on the marathon, the leaders with burnout, those with accidents, emergencies along the way, interferes with obsessive behaviors. Many of his clients are having unique issues in these new times. His immediate responses are filled with intuitive insights. It’s time for healers to heal just not themselves, but each other. Learning of one person’s experiences can help many others. Gather up and share even if you are, or maybe because, you are so independent. 

New Moon’s by nature start new cycles. Though in an old sign, traditional Capricorn, the collective factors are causing dissatisfaction, unrest, inquisitiveness, a yearning for change even if you don’t know what change to make. Capricorn wants to protect and maintain, but also knows when the system is at a breaking point. Making change in time, before it become critical, wisely guided by people who have been there before, can make all the difference, give a smooth transition. 

Many 2021 factors have had an Aquarian component, including this New Moon closely connected with the Aquarian planet Uranus! We are preparing for Pluto’s entry into Aquarius in 2023. We are more aware now that some connections need reworking, fixing, updating. Some ideas have long term implications worth working for, are financially productive, spiritually satisfying! Make notes then network like crazy to get more ideas to complete the package, select who will work together, and get it rolling! .

4 Behenian FIXED STARS! 

 

Wiki says: The Behenian fixed stars, [used by alchemists,] are a selection of fifteen stars considered especially useful for magical applications in the medieval astrology of Europe and the Arab world. Their name derives from Arabic bahman, “root,” as each was considered a source of astrological power for one or more planets. Each is also connected with a gemstone and plant that would be used in rituals meant to draw the star’s influence (e.g., into a talisman). When a planet was within six degrees of an associated star, this influence was thought to be particularly strong.

Erik Roth reminds us: The Behenian stars are stars that have been shared as magical but it is really all stars and planets have their own magic and can be utilized through symbolic, psychic, spiritual and otherwise magical purposes in our lives.  The near-infinite sky dome is a part of our lives and has been since our very distant ancestors hundreds of thousands of years looked upon them and not only wondered what they were but also from a place of seeking, of finding meaning and seeing something beyond themselves. 

Alphecca, one of the 15 Behenian Stars! This star is sometimes called Gemma, the jewel of the crown. A brilliant white star, it is also called the Pearl of the Crown. It is the Alpha star of Corona Borealis, the Northern Crown, at 12 Scorpio 35 (2021) is sextile the New Moon! Some hitherto unknown opportunities may emerge.

Alphecca marks the loop, or knot, of the ribbon along which are fastened the buds, flowers, or leaves of the wreath shown in early drawings with two long out-streaming ends. Corona Borealis represents the garland given by Venus to Ariadne on the occasion of her marriage to Bacchus after she had been forsaken by Theseus. Manilius said it ‘sparkles in the mid forehead. He was quite taken with the Crown. See his eloquent thoughts about it’s relationship with Virgo! Jamie at Astrology King says: it is of the nature of Venus and Mercury (idealistic, psychic, handsome, neat, lovable, refined, genteel, intelligent). It gives honor, dignity and poetical and artistic ability. 

With Moon: Public honor and dignity, suffers through law, partners and neighbors, trouble through underhanded dealings of enemies but eventual triumph over them, bad for love affairs, some faithful friends, greatly esteemed by Venus and Mercury people. (Robson) Honors and preferment.

With Sun: Active and brilliant mind, self-seeking, subject to scandal that does not affect the position. Honors and preferment.

Alphecca is opposite Uranus, which is inconjunct the New Moon! With Uranus Robson says: Selfish, mental affliction and violence at end of life, psychic power, suffering through occultism, deceptive, many false friends, small inheritance obtained with difficulty, losses by law, enemies and mercurial affairs, sorrow through children or an adopted child, domestic trouble through own acts, danger of a violent death. 

We have come a long way in our thinking about Uranus than when it was first discovered. Think in modern terms of the benefits of this planet and combine that with the issues Robson perceived. Uranus rules electronics and computers, networking of all kinds, humanitarian efforts, freedom, awakening, change, evolution. Alphecca’s charm and intelligence work well with so many opportunities!

Aquarian Abraham Lincoln 0°03′, and J. Paul Getty 1°36′, had Alphecca with Uranus. See more at Astrology King!

Fixed Stars Algorab 13 Libra – squares the New Moon, and Sirius 14 Cancer – is opposite the New Moon! I imagine few of you have done much work with or even heard of Algorab! It is on the right wing of the Raven, in the constellation Corvus, the Crow.  If you love the intelligent Corvids this may bode well for you, if not, all the nasties you hear of them may be part of the Truth.

  • In the US Algorab’s rep is not so good. Astrologer Jamie Partridge summarizes: Algorab is one of the 15 magic related Behenian Fixed Stars. Its image is a raven, snake or negro dressed in black. It makes the wearer angry, bold, courageous and a backbiter, gives bad dreams, the power of summoning or driving away evil spirits and protection from winds and the malice of men and devils. – Whew! That’s impressive! If you sense those things in advance it can be a blessed forewarning.
  • Quite differently he also states the 28th Chinese Xiù – 軫 (Zhěn) Chariot thinks:  This is the celestial Carriage and it represents the transport of tributes from foreign lands to the Emperor, thus the accumulation of wealth. It also presides over travel of all kinds and vehicles. It also presaged favorable winds and an end to storms. Events in business bring great profit and everything done heralds fortunate returns. Paying homage to ancestors will honor one with a “Dragon Child”. It is also a great day for marriages and births.
  • But some modern astrologers concur that it shows up in terrorism events! See the details at Astrology King, Jamie’s site! Don’t ‘terrorize’ yourself or provoke others; help others and yourself to be safe. Be aware of triggers and danger signals and leave; talk later if possible. Use your intelligence in a good way.
  • The New Moon is opposite the potent, brightest star of the night, Sirius! Sirius enjoys a terrific reputation for the most part, but also called the Dog Star, watch out for dog bites, LOL! It is another of the 15 Behenian stars. Sirius is of the nature of Jupiter and Mars (high ambition, pride, love of power, grandeur of view.) It gives honor, renown, wealth, ardor, faithfulness, devotion, passion and resentment, and makes its natives custodians, curators and guardians. It gives honor, the goodwill and favor of men and the airy spirits, and the power to pacify nobles and others. And to tease you, it rules beryl, savine, mugwort, dragonwort and the tongue of a snake. See a lot more at Astrology King! 

Pluto Trine Fixed Star Algol 26 Taurus 27 in 2020 – 2024

Pluto is of Scorpio, the sign opposite Algol’s sign Taurus, but Pluto now in Capricorn gentles that opposition because Pluto in Capricorn trines, favors Algol. Pluto rules death and rebirth while Algol is considered to bear misfortune, often death. They understand each other. Neither is to be messed with. Capricorn is noted for facing reality squarely. 

Algol is the baddest Star according to some! It is a rare triple star and eclipsing binary, which means it blinks, and changes brightness, even ‘disappears!’ It is the Medusa’s Head, carried in the left hand of the Hero, Perseus. On the dark side, ‘It causes misfortune, violence, decapitation, hanging, electrocution and mob violence, and gives a dogged and violent nature that causes death to the native or others. It is the most evil star in the heavens.’ Some say it’s not the ‘bad’ within us but pushing through blockages to the beauty beyond is what really matters. We can face our demons with sincere intent and life changes for the better! See more!

Many give Algol a wide berth, plan carefully astrologically. To be on the safe side, Astrologers often allow 5 degrees for the effective range with Algol while most stars get only 1 degree range. If you have chart factors in that 5 degree range, one way or another you are connected with Algol. If you have questions, do see your astrologer.

Pluto is now at 25° Capricorn and moves only 3° a year. Pluto retrogrades back and forth through the degrees as it travels Capricorn. Allowing a 3 degree range, anytime Pluto is between 23 Cap 27 to 29 Cap 27, it will trine Algol at 26 Taurus 27. That period started Feb 2020 – virus time, and will go through Jan 2024. It is now continuously trine Algol. Exact trines are formed 5 times: on Spring Equinox Mar 20, & June 5, 2021, and in 2022 Jan 17, 2022, Aug 29, Nov 16.

One hopes the trine, a good aspect, bends the relationship with Algol to a more satisfactory outcome. Earth signs are a bit ‘indelible.’ Their effects are more long lasting. Keep turning the tables on Algol’s bad rep. Recent violence, covid deaths, may leave raw feelings of grief, bitterness, betrayal. Freedom is still at issue. Stay calm in the face of violence, shift your connections so better can happen, turn a page, try out some new possibilities. Know your rights and choose safety unless/even if you are trying to save someone’s life. If you are the offender, get all the help you can to change. Many a fine leader has come from a dark place.

Pluto understands much of this. Capricorn often has working answers to bring us back together in common cause. Be safe and be well. Tread gently. Get all the facts then wait before you pass judgment. Steady in the Light.  

Algol’s connection with the Galactic Center!

Algol and the GC are in lockstep! Each being star factors, they each take 72 years to move a degree. Currently Algol is at 26 Taurus and the GC is 27 Sag. Whenever one is activated, they both are. Algol and the GC have an oblique position (inconjunct), aware, but out of the corner of your eye. That position is common in the charts of psychics. They ‘see’ peripheral factors that influence the outcome. Inconjuncts sometimes lead you on a goose chase, but maybe to greener pastures. You do get a greater perspective. Even if you go back home, you are different. You have perhaps made new friends and associates that can carry that sector for you, or be a link to that sector when you need it. Excellent adjustments are in the offing. Destination Algol would not usually be a conscious choice, but sometimes it is part of our Path and it just happens. Square your shoulders and do it, eyes wide open. Fascinating encounter.

Oh, yes, Algol strikes fear in a lot of hearts, but so does the GC when people find out it is one gigantic black hole!!! You could vanish in an instant! You astral travelers might should be careful? I like to think of Algol as the GC’s Guardian. Algol is considered to be a super powerful feminine force. It would take such an entity to protect the mighty GC! Algol is ready to stomp her feet and ‘invite’ you to travel, or takes you another place once the GC’s info has been bestowed, a place that needs the information the most.

Algol is in Taurus, the first Venus sign, has a sensual touch, loves earthy beauty, sculpts her own existence! The profound Galactic Center is in fiery Sagittarius, the sign between Scorpio and Capricorn. The GC is enjoying lots of laughs and adventure stories, sends rays and bolts of information we are barely capable of downloading let alone understand, and it’s not on anyone’s schedule! Capricorn is hosting Pluto, is trine Algol in Taurus and semi sextile The Galactic Center, piloting the whole scenario of these three powerful factors. By nature he is a no nonsense old Master and gives orders, expecting things to get done. All these three have street creds and are impressive, but Capricorn has hung out with the best and functions well at this level. He treats them more equally both to himself and each other. It’s his job. 

On a fine New Moon night, things are blended, no Moonlight or shadows. There is a certain equality as the playing field is equalized. It seems more quiet, even subdued. Without the daylight contrasts and sharp edges we are more receptive… Even if there is a breeze, there are no moving shadows… Sleep can be deeper.

Our New SuperMoon is an exciting game changer! It celebrates the New Year! Happy 2022!

Cancer/Capricorn Full Wolf Moon Jan 17!

.
Monday January 17, 3:48 PM Pacific, 27 Cancer 51 


Family! Working the old and the new are the challenge! Value both, combine wisely.

 

2022 Cancer-Capricorn Full Wolf Moon Cathedral Rock Sedona

Magical moonrise at Cathedral Rock in Sedona! Nothing Like a Night hike under the Full Moon at Red Rocks State Park, Arizona! Superb photo by Heber Lopez (via Arizona Nature Lovers). See your options at Pixels.com

 

This is the first Full Moon after Winter Solstice and in 2022!

We are in a 27 Degree Sequence for SIX months! 2021 Oct, Nov, Dec and 2022 Jan, Feb, and Mar start a ‘season’ of six Full Moons at 27 degrees Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo. The Full Moons at 24 to 29 degrees, will activate Algol and the Galactic Center at 26 and 27 and their Pluto connections strongly 8 times Sep 2021 to April 2022. Fixed stars Polaris – the North StarBetelgeuse in Orion are at 28 Gemini, and Procyon 25 Cn 47, will give varying additional effects per their type of connections with those signs. Note where these factors fall in your chart, which house(s). That is the section of  your life that they activate. Check with your astrologer for further personal details.

With Mama Moon at this distance from Uranus, and the rest of the planets near each other, this is a Moon Handle Bucket chart. The handle position is laying back. When you hold a bucket in this position, you can scoop or pour, receive or send forth. Planets that stand alone like this are emphasized, the access point for all the planets! Moon is in her own sign Cancer, so she is doubly potent, also in the lead position! Mothers are not to be messed with! They let us know what they have to give, what they want and what they will take home with them! Moon is seeking a safe home, food for her children and the mothers of the world. She runs a good business, distributes the goods, connects the community, its cultures and the matriarchy! Moon with her photographic memory, is a data bank! She takes meaningful information in its entirety back to her planets.

Two interesting features…

  1. Moon has passed all the planetary connections except the Full Moon opposition with Sun. This means that immediately after the Full Moon, Moon will be in a condition astrologers call Void of Course. She has no further ‘course’ until she changes signs. Things in this sign are done. Generally it isn’t recommended to start new projects in this window. Nothing will come of it though the opposite philosophy is there is nothing to hinder it. But. Moon now is decreasing. If you are gardening the roots are growing. On the increase the above ground foliage grows. Depending on what the project is, or if you are opening a business, you may decide to wait for good aspects when Moon is on the increase after the next New Moon.
  2. This is all happening while Venus and Mercury are in their DOUBLE RETROGRADE! Retrogrades used wisely are change makers. They re-sort and use a finer mesh for sifting what to keep. They make adjustments, can be a nuisance, but in the long run the system functions better with healthier returns. Moon can go with this. She makes the rounds through all the signs every 27 days and is always helping people upgrade! She sees it work! The length of the time is the prime consideration. Sometimes you want changes so you jump on the retrograde. If you are starting a long term business the continual changes may drain your profits. But, if you stay up with the times, you may find yourself to be the leader of your kind, up on the latest and capitalizing on it! We’re not just talking money. Stay up on how to take good care of yourself and your kids, what foods you eat. 
Opposite Sun in Capricorn, Moon directly feeds him. Capricorn puts her findings to work. He is a leader in his own right, the Man of the Family, the Patriarch, CEO, president, grand master. Capricorn rules elders, people of authority in the tribe. Capricorn’s job is to provide shelter, be father to the children, uphold the family reputation. He can be taskmaster, lawmaker, builder. 

 

Sun has just passed his annual conjunction with Pluto, Scorpio’s planet. Pluto is finishing Capricorn; will enter Aquarius March 23. 2023. This will be the 2nd to last time Sun will make this conjunction, giving Pluto needed strength and lighting his heart. Then for 21 years, their annual conjunction will be in Aquarius. Pluto looks for depth in relationships, at finances, shamanic healing, detoxing, death and rebirth! Capricorn wants dedication, professional success, traditional long term commitments, to be a good husband and parent. Sun sees Pluto’s deepest passions, the charisma, extremes and a lot behind the scenes. There are good and bads, but Capricorn understands failure, often surprisingly compromises, does what he can to help. 

Moon observes from the other side and offers what she can without invading privacy. She is impressed by both the danger and devilry, and the shamanic healing side of both Pluto and Capricorn Sun. While Pluto is the psychological therapist, one of the powers of Capricorn is doctoring the structures of our thinking and the skin and bones of our bodies. Chiropractors know how changing our mental and physical patterns can change our whole life! Moon sees their attitudes about women and may drop a few pithy points that may interfere with old careless thinking. She can see what scares them, their childlike facets. Her praise for small changes can go a long way… 

Mars in Sagittarius is pretty feisty! He expresses his opinions, tells moral stories to make his point! He is in strong semi sextile with Pluto, dares to be pushy, sure he himself is invincible! So Pluto takes a long look at Mars, assessing Mars’s core strength and credibility, whether he should listen to this new upstart on the scene. Mars could help Pluto by taking the story where it needs to be heard and Pluto’s privacy is preserved. Mars could try blackmail or slander, but he might regret it. Pluto has plenty of allies. Mars may be trying to pry Pluto loose, open his mind to broader perspectives. Hmmm… Mars is semi sextile Sun and Sun is with Pluto! There is a chance this fire planet might be up on things and amenable to the big ideas Mars is touting! Sun is ever courageous and may urge Pluto to take the chance. There are moments when breakthroughs just happen! Moon is watching the show from across the room. Pluto may call on her to take a look at Mars too. She can usually tell sincerity, truth and if the options are good. Mars wants to teach, and will travel, so they need to get with it or miss out! He’s a terrific first responder type, so if they need mental first aid, he’s the one! Listen, make notes, and let him go!

Venus at 13 Capricorn has retrograded almost back to her 12 degree station, a position she will hold for 14 days, Jan 22 to Feb 5! Right now she is semi Sextile Capricorn planet Saturn at 13 degrees. She is in conservative Capricorn while he is in avant-garde Aquarius. Old Saturn is pointing out how she can open channels and the reasons to do it. Time to build differently now due to planetary changes. He will inspire her to raise her sights in partnerships. Mercury retrograde has been with him, cueing him to shift his thinking too. Mercury in Aquarius has been squaring the Aquarian planet Uranus, challenging concepts of friendship and evolution. Relationships are taking on a new tone. Now part of the reason is to have relationships is to have working relationships, uniting for causes as well as classic reasons of home together, comfort and kids.  

Venus won’t Rx back far enough to get strong in the square with Chiron in Aries, but he is back there. As Chiron, he is thought by some to be the marriage planet. In Aries, he is an independent healer! Thinking of him, Venus is reinforced to stay strong and true with her choices. 

Aquarius Mercury Rx does sextile Chiron, exact Jan 25, just before she returns to Capricorn! Mercury in AQ is certainly spicy and spiky! New and different, odd and brilliant! Chiron has been tracking him. In Aries he is attracted to Mercury’s speed of thought, is enjoying the panoply of his thinking. Chiron wants to infuse healing ideas into Mercury’s humanitarian thinking, how to heal entire groups at a time by pinpointing change points that trigger and release their attention to a world of the latest ideas! Mercury thinks that is exciting and that it will save time, speed up evolution! He invites Chiron to join up at times, spend time with other healers, make broad plans for priorities planetarily. That will establish valuable connections Chiron can consult with, open up steady access to the latest ideas in his own field!

Jupiter and Neptune stand alone for now. Jupiter is just back in Pisces, Neptune’s sign. Jupiter can be broadminded; Neptune is infinite, a rainbow of inspiration! There are plenty of wandering, sometimes lost, Souls in the galaxy. Jupiter is funny, lucky, optimistic, sees the Great Plan for the future! He can cheer Neptune up when needed. Neptune entices Jupiter, so easy to do, to sweep into the world of spiritualism, psychic perception. This dimension is bigger than anything Jupiter ever imagined! Jupiter may go to church, but Neptune is the Universe! Jupiter is filled with ideas. Jupiter, the horse lover, wants to harness that Neptune energy, make it more accessible, incorporate it into our world plans. The implication of the insights are enormous. It’s a dream and a vision. The insights include ways to do it well and in a timely fashion, so it may be much closer to happening than we think! There will be a boost with their 166 year conjunction April 12! Set some special time aside and pick a special location too!

Pluto, Algol, Galactic Center! Pluto is now at 26° Capricorn and moves only 3° a year. Pluto retrogrades back and forth through the degrees as it travels Capricorn. Allowing a 3 degree range, anytime Pluto is between 23 Cap 27 to 29 Cap 27, it will trine fixed star Algol at 26 Taurus 27. That period started Feb 2020 – virus time, and will go through Jan 2024. It is now continuously trine Algol. Exact trines are formed 5 times: on Spring Equinox Mar 20, & June 5, 2021, and in 2022 Jan 17, 2022 THIS FULL MOON, Aug 29, Nov 16. Jan 17, the 3rd trine, is a turning point of the five of them. 

Since Pluto trines Algol at 26 Taurus, a potent formation is made! The Moon is just past opposition Pluto and sextile Algol, considered by some to be an incredible feminine force!. In her own sign, Moon can fully understand Algol, feel the distress, be like a ‘Mother’ to her. She can cradle her close, heal some of the old hurts, the pain that has been long endured. Ultra feminine Moon, mature in late degrees of her own sign Cancer, has feelings many times more deep than usual. Women, children and home will be significant.

The Full Moon Capricorn Sun is just over a degree past his annual conjunction with Pluto! Such a Sun can be read as Scorpio (Pluto’s sign) as much as Capricorn! Nothing has been forgotten! Sun with Pluto then also trines Algol, so there is a sense of personal identity with Algol, our own demons. Pluto and Capricorn are also feminine factors, so be prepared for a lot of intuitive perception, revelations, epiphanies. Some may be fairly distasteful yet need to be dealt with, even if you decide to put them aside. But the majority of the signs/planets involved are action oriented, so sooner action is more likely than later.

Algol is lockstep with the Galactic Center 27 Sagittarius. Pluto, Sun and Moon are all connected! Sun is semi sextile the GC, while Moon is inconjunct the GC! They are being swept along with this potent combination. Cancer and Capricorn often like things just the way they are, at work and at home, but they are certainly being given the invitation to explore the Vastitudes! See all about them above in the New Moon, Fixed Stars section.

Family! Working the old and the new are the challenge! Value both, combine wisely.

Sagittarius 2021 TOTAL Solar Eclipse New Moon Atacama Desert Chile Caldera Carlos Fairbairn

Sometimes, the sky mimics the ground. Taken in 2017 May from the Atacama Desert in Chile [Sagittarian country], the foreground of the featured image encompasses the dipping edge of the caldera of an extinct volcano. Poetically echoing the dip below is the arch of our Milky Way Galaxy above. Many famous icons dot this southern nighttime vista, including the center of our Milky Way Galaxy on the far left, the bright orange star Antares also on the left, the constellation of the Southern Cross near the top of the arch, and the red-glowing Gum Nebula on the far right. Just above the horizon and splitting two distant volcanic peaks near the image center is the Large Magellanic Cloud — the largest satellite galaxy of the Milky Way. Image at NASA by Carlos Eduardo Fairbairn

This may be the Last New Moon of 2021, but it potently links through 2022! 2021 Nov, Dec and 2022 Jan 2 and 31, and Mar there are five New Moons at 12 degrees in Scorpio, Sag, Cap AQ and Pisces. Those of you with chart factors close to 12 degrees will be activated by 7 New Moons from Oct 2021 to March 2022. Jan and March 2022 will have two New Moons in Pacific time zone. There is NO New Moon in February 2022. Set a goal related to the factors at or very near 12 degrees in your chart and approach it progressively from every angle, every sign!

Being a TOTAL ECLIPSE, the New Moon lineup is super strong, straight as a Sagittarian arrow at short distance! The focus is formidable. They can see like lasers at long distance, the outcome! Projects started at this time may fizzle if not in alignment, but if they are, they may be obsessive until finished, and forget the Sagittarian procrastination, they will get done, LOL!

Mars in Scorpio pushes this Bowl Chart while Uranus, also an instigator, leads in Taurus! The planets are spread through all the signs in the Bowl, gathering a potpourri of info as they cross the territories. Sag has three planets, Capricorn and Aquarius both have two, so more than half of the planets are right there! Knowledge, Wisdom and Evolution are to be acquired for the Bowl to peruse, later to spill out when and where needed!  

Mars is strongly engaged, determined to do his duty. Mars in Scorpio sextiles Venus and Pluto in Capricorn, and squares Jupiter in Aquarius, the heist of a lifetime, but the motion sensors were on! Mercury in Sagittarius is overconfident and square Neptune makes some mistaken assumptions. The New Moon thought it could rely on their friend Uranus in Taurus, but the angle is oblique, friend not available. Saturn in Aquarius is squaring Uranus in Taurus and the info was delayed or faulty. Historically, Eclipses, ‘eclipse’ the situation. Either something more dramatic happens and the project is ‘lost’ to other circumstances, or somehow it just becomes unseen. Maybe the friend just doesn’t show up with the needed piece of gear, or the food. Yes, it’s a New Moon, but likely not quite what you expected. Thank goodness Sagittarius rolls with it, is happy and optimistic with whatever discoveries are made! Mars addresses all the issues. Even with some bumps along the way, the healing is achieved due to his strength and perseverance! 

New Moons and Uranus! Virgo’s new Moon trined Uranus at 14 degrees. Libra’s New Moon was inconjunct Uranus at 13 degrees. Last month’s Scorpio New Moon was the same degree opposite the Aquarian planet Uranus by 7 Minutes of space! This month they are inconjunct, oblique at 11 and 12 degrees. March and the March/April New Moons are close and they are conjunct Uranus in April, finishing their sequence!

Uranus is the planet of freedom, evolution, the futurist. It works as an ultimate loner or in behalf of humanity, networking across continents. Genius, research, invention are it’s talents. Awakening and Enlightenment are its invitations. Sagittarius’s Mama Moon and Papa Sun may speed along on their fine motorcycles and love the air breezing by down the road with their remarkable friend. They see the Uranus in Taurus Earth all around them, feel their connection with the totality of the whole climate. They stop to chat along the way. They agree about what differences may be required to heal, maintain and secure what is so precious. Friendships may come and go, but we hope Earth as we know it now is with us lifelong and for our children’s children too.

Uranus steadily leads the Bowl chart but not where the New Moon expected! And Sagittarius loves an exploration! New methods, premises of thought, literal locations, connections, skew the outcome with a richer context. The ground itself sings! Data is stored in super systems, swarms, the diagrams and visuals are wide treasures of learning, broaden our points of view. Venus with Pluto adds an uncanny depth with a Capricorn reality that can’t be denied. Venus has just passed sextile with Neptune and now knows more why the Soul wants what it wants. A difficult reality brings compassion, calls for help. There may be a realization of karmic shades of responsibilities in our relationships. It’s a gift and a blessing to care so deeply, Soul to Soul. 

Mars in Scorpio sextile Pluto, Scorpio’s planet, in Capricorn loves the spice of calculated danger, being on the edge. Can be physical or a dangerous point of view. Venus makes the goal even more seductive! Mars rarely can’t make up his mind, but he is caught between anonymity, a ‘sure’ thing, and Jupiter’s wild enticement to take a different road than what the group usually takes! He might be feeling he has to stand for safety for the women and kids, even to the point of fighting for them, or letting the group split, some following the Aquarian upstart. Jupiter in Aquarius can sound so comfortably confident, others can’t believe his lead could be false. And it could be a breakthrough. Mars might decide to give it a chance with certain caveats. It’s one thing to go cruising with Uranus in Taurus, but entirely different with Jupiter in Aquarius, the Uranus sign!

Scorpio has a similarity to Uranus/Aquarius. Scorpio also wants the freedom to be himself, untampered with. He wants privacy and needs time alone. But they differ other ways. When in relationship, Scorpio wants the deepest intimacy, for life, with meaningful sex, but will do without if not possible. Jealousies, possessiveness are his undoings and the love of his life may leave him. Some say they are too intense, obsessive. Scorpio does shamanic healing from psyche to body, finances too. His own recovery rate from life threatening injuries is phenomenal! They understand taboos, can standby with deathing. Scorpio is a deep thinker, an invincible martial arts spiritual warrior that will give his life to save yours. Or if there is cruelty, he may feel justified in taking yours depending on circumstances. Scorpios powerfully relate with the underworld both for bad and good. They survive on their wits in the most dangerous situations – SEALs, special ops, marines, medics, policemen. Their totems are reptiles – the snake, don’t tread on me, the Eagle, bird of prey that flies higher consciousness. Halloween, Day of the Dead, is their time of connection with the wisdom of the Ancestors.

Mercury in Sagittarius is with the New Moon, thinking his way across the sky, intrigued by the sweeping mind stretching vistas! There are impressive bodies of knowledge, some are tabulated for the taking, some need sorting. His square with Neptune shows him the worm holes, channels around corners, taking him deeper, higher on the waves of consciousness than ever before! It can spin your world, dizzy your perception, loosen your beliefs that are dropped along the way like they were nothing, with no substance any longer. You feel lighter, gravity has no hold. Sagittarius is happier than at the carnival rides! It may be scary at moments ~ will you ever be able to go home? Yes, but you won’t be the same, and that’s ok. You will connect with new people who ride at your new level. They can show you how to regroup! What a trip!

If people ask you if you are confused, heartily say Yes! Thank goodness you have the ability to experience such a state! Your awareness increases, your options expand. Confusion shows a questioning mind in progress! Invite them along!  

Mercury naturally collects data every existing moment. There is such a divine spread of material it starts to sort itself into categories as we see the gist of things! Mercury hums along, singing it all into place, the missionary of mental order. Sagittarius has perspective that helps us collaborate on the toughest world topics on the plate today. Vaccines, climate/water, political matters of all kinds – indigenous, racial, sexual, women/children, housing. 

Sometimes Sag just blurts out what he thinks at the time. What he thinks is so exciting to him and Sag is a fire sign, generally lucky, often impetuous. At times, truth telling needs treading lightly, skillfully. We’re not always talking with a person who wants to respond, reciprocate or likes our opinion no matter how well intended. Putting yourself in the other person’s place can’t always be done because you don’t know their story, and they don’t always want to tell it and may be pretty bristly if you invade their privacy. They just want what they want, may have lots of emotion, are not ready to share. Yet there are times when we get busted. Time to give it up. Mercury in Sag has a certain innocence. You may be intelligently forthright and tell it like it is right to their face! People are so surprised they actually listen! In that moment they get it and there is no argument. 

Saturn is finishing his last two 2021 aspects, the day after ThanksGiving and 2 days before Christmas!

Nov 26 Saturn sextiled Chiron successfully bonded and are now carrying on their work. Saturn may be unpredictable in Aquarius and Chiron in Aries is quick on his feet. Each may travel along a more or less parallel track, fruitfully checking in with each other time to time. Each like their freedom and independence. And that is what keeps them interested in the other, their new ideas. Each needs to be in a separate section, but may be collaborating toward a mutual goal. They are both interested in marriage, but the AQ-Aries part skitters away. It is more a reaction to what they are rather than any specific person. It’s more what they sense than what they are thinking about. Friendship is fine. See more

Dec 23 Saturn in Aquarius square Uranus, the planet of Aquarius, can be confusing. There is camaraderie and being at odds in the oddest ways! You what?! Saturn having been in AQ, has been trying to ride with the unpredictable creature. It’s somewhere between a bucking bronco and surfing! He’s now used to knowing he no longer knows. Life used to be so what it was. Now it is compounded by pandemic, climate and politics gone wild. Financial winds keep zig zagging! Friends and family are changing. Oddly, the planet of change, is also a genius at work, and in Taurus of stabilizing, making things more sensible and grounded. Self reliance and the most elemental feed-ourselves vegetable gardening has thrived during the pandemic. At a time when things are so up in the air (Aquarius), we are becoming more sensible, even more simple. Being at home, many have cleaned out years of debris from their lives, gotten literally lighter. They are getting work that is more in tune with their core. Might be less money, but the happiness factor brings a smile and better health. See more


4 Behenian FIXED STARS! 

Wiki says: The Behenian fixed stars, [used by alchemists,] are a selection of fifteen stars considered especially useful for magical applications in the medieval astrology of Europe and the Arab world. Their name derives from Arabic bahman, “root,” as each was considered a source of astrological power for one or more planets. Each is also connected with a gemstone and plant that would be used in rituals meant to draw the star’s influence (e.g., into a talisman). When a planet was within six degrees of an associated star, this influence was thought to be particularly strong.

Erik Roth reminds us: The Behenian stars are stars that have been shared as magical but it is really all stars and planets have their own magic and can be utilized through symbolic, psychic, spiritual and otherwise magical purposes in our lives.  The near-infinite sky dome is a part of our lives and has been since our very distant ancestors hundreds of thousands of years looked upon them and not only wondered what they were but also from a place of seeking, of finding meaning and seeing something beyond themselves. 

Alphecca, one of the 15 Behenian Stars! This star is sometimes called Gemma, the jewel of the crown. A brilliant white star, it is also called the Pearl of the Crown. It is the Alpha star of Corona Borealis, the Northern Crown, at 12 Scorpio 35 (2021) is semi sextile the New Moon! 

Alphecca marks the loop, or knot, of the ribbon along which are fastened the buds, flowers, or leaves of the wreath shown in early drawings with two long out-streaming ends. Corona Borealis represents the garland given by Venus to Ariadne on the occasion of her marriage to Bacchus after she had been forsaken by Theseus. Manilius said it ‘sparkles in the mid forehead. He was quite taken with the Crown. See his eloquent thoughts about it’s relationship with Virgo! Jamie at Astrology King says: it is of the nature of Venus and Mercury (idealistic, psychic, handsome, neat, lovable, refined, genteel, intelligent). It gives honor, dignity and poetical and artistic ability. 

With Moon: Public honor and dignity, suffers through law, partners and neighbors, trouble through underhanded dealings of enemies but eventual triumph over them, bad for love affairs, some faithful friends, greatly esteemed by Venus and Mercury people. (Robson) Honors and preferment.

With Sun: Active and brilliant mind, self-seeking, subject to scandal that does not affect the position. Honors and preferment.

Alphecca is opposite Uranus, which is inconjunct the New Moon! With Uranus Robson says: Selfish, mental affliction and violence at end of life, psychic power, suffering through occultism, deceptive, many false friends, small inheritance obtained with difficulty, losses by law, enemies and mercurial affairs, sorrow through children or an adopted child, domestic trouble through own acts, danger of a violent death. 

We have come a long way in our thinking about Uranus than when it was first discovered. Think in modern terms of the benefits of this planet and combine that with the issues Robson perceived. Uranus rules electronics and computers, networking of all kinds, humanitarian efforts, freedom, awakening, change, evolution. Alphecca’s charm and intelligence work well with so many opportunities!

Aquarian Abraham Lincoln 0°03′, J. Paul Getty 1°36′ had Alphecca with Uranus.

Fixed Stars Algorab 13 Libra – sextiles the New Moon and Mercury, Sirius 14 Cancer – is inconjunct the New Moon and Mercury! I imagine few of you have done much work with or even heard of Algorab! It is on the right wing of the Raven, in the constellation Corvus, the Crow.  If you love the intelligent Corvids this may bode well for you, if not, all the nasties you hear of them may be part of the Truth.

  • In the US their rep is not so good. Astrologer Jamie Partridge summarizes: Algorab is one of the 15 magic related Behenian Fixed Stars. Its image is a raven, snake or negro dressed in black. It makes the wearer angry, bold, courageous and a backbiter, gives bad dreams, the power of summoning or driving away evil spirits and protection from winds and the malice of men and devils. – Whew! That’s impressive! If you sense those things in advance it can be a blessed forewarning.
  • He also states the 28th Chinese Xiù – 軫 (Zhěn) Chariot thinks:  This is the celestial Carriage and it represents the transport of tributes from foreign lands to the Emperor, thus the accumulation of wealth. It also presides over travel of all kinds and vehicles. It also presaged favorable winds and an end to storms. Events in business bring great profit and everything done heralds fortunate returns. Paying homage to ancestors will honor one with a “Dragon Child”. It is also a great day for marriages and births. – Quite different!
  • But some modern astrologers concur that it shows up in terrorism events! See the details at Astrology King, Jamie’s site! Don’t ‘terrorize’ yourself or provoke others; help others and yourself to be safe. Be aware of triggers and danger signals and leave; talk later if possible. Use your intelligence in a good way.
  • The New Moon is oblique to the potent, brightest star of the night, Sirius! Sirius enjoys a terrific reputation for the most part, but also called the Dog Star, watch out for dog bites, LOL! It is another of the 15 Behenian stars. Sirius is of the nature of Jupiter and Mars (high ambition, pride, love of power, grandeur of view.) It gives honor, renown, wealth, ardor, faithfulness, devotion, passion and resentment, and makes its natives custodians, curators and guardians. It gives honor, the goodwill and favor of men and the airy spirits, and the power to pacify nobles and others. And to tease you, it rules beryl, savine, mugwort, dragonwort and the tongue of a snake. See a lot more at Astrology King! 

Many 2021 factors have had an Aquarian component, including this New Moon within a degree of the Aquarian planet Uranus! We are preparing for Pluto’s entry into Aquarius in 2023. We are more aware now that some connections need reworking, fixing, updating. Some ideas have long term implications worth working for, are financially productive, spiritually satisfying! Make notes then network like crazy to get more ideas to complete the package, select who will work together, and get it rolling! See Saturn in Aquarius Saturn is open to new areas of responsibility. Chiron in leader Aries is livening us with the latest healing and teaching ideas! Jupiter is back in Aquarius jazzing up Saturn’s prospects!

Pluto Trine Fixed Star Algol 26 Taurus 27 in 2020 – 2024

Pluto is of Scorpio, the sign opposite Algol’s sign Taurus, but Pluto now in Capricorn gentles that opposition because Pluto Capricorn trines, favors Algol. Pluto rules death and rebirth while Algol is considered to bear misfortune, often death. They understand each other. Neither is to be messed with. Capricorn is noted for facing reality squarely. 

Algol is the baddest Star according to some! It is a rare triple star and eclipsing binary, which means it blinks, and changes brightness, even ‘disappears!’ It is the Medusa’s Head, carried in the left hand of the Hero, Perseus. On the dark side, ‘It causes misfortune, violence, decapitation, hanging, electrocution and mob violence, and gives a dogged and violent nature that causes death to the native or others. It is the most evil star in the heavens.’ Some say it’s not the ‘bad’ within us but pushing through blockages to the beauty beyond is what really matters. We can face our demons with sincere intent and life changes for the better! See more!

Many give Algol a wide berth, plan carefully astrologically. To be on the safe side, Astrologers often allow 5 degrees for the effective range with Algol while most stars get only 1 degree range. If you have chart factors in that 5 degree range, one way or another you are connected with Algol. If you have questions, do see your astrologer.

Pluto is now at 25° Capricorn and moves only 3° a year. Pluto retrogrades back and forth through the degrees as it travels Capricorn. Allowing a 3 degree range, anytime Pluto is between 23 Cap 27 to 29 Cap 27, it will trine Algol at 26 Taurus 27. That period started Feb 2020 – virus time, and will go through Jan 2024. It is now continuously trine Algol. Exact trines are formed 5 times: on Spring Equinox Mar 20, & June 5, 2021, and in 2022 Jan 17, 2022, Aug 29, Nov 16.

One hopes the trine, a good aspect, bends the relationship with Algol to a more satisfactory outcome. Earth signs are a bit ‘indelible.’ Their effects are more long lasting. Keep turning the tables on Algol’s bad rep. Recent violence, covid deaths, may leave raw feelings of grief, bitterness, betrayal. Freedom is still at issue. Stay calm in the face of violence, shift your connections so better can happen, turn a page, try out some new possibilities. Know your rights and choose safety unless/even if you are trying to save someone’s life. If you are the offender, get all the help you can to change. Many a fine leader has come from a dark place.

Pluto understands much of this. Capricorn often has working answers to bring us back together in common cause. Be safe and be well. Tread gently. Get all the facts before you pass judgment. Steady in the Light.  

Algol’s connection with the Galactic Center!

Algol and the GC are in lockstep! Each being star factors, they each take 72 years to move a degree. Currently Algol is at 26 Taurus and the GC is 27 Sag. Whenever one is activated, they both are. Algol and the GC have an oblique position (inconjunct), aware, but out of the corner of your eye. That position is common in the charts of psychics. They ‘see’ peripheral factors that influence the outcome. Inconjuncts sometimes lead you on a goose chase, but maybe to greener pastures. You do get a greater perspective. Even if you go back home, you are different. You have perhaps made new friends and associates that can carry that sector for you, or be a link to that sector when you need it. Excellent adjustments are in the offing. Destination Algol would not usually be a conscious choice, but sometimes it is part of our Path and it just happens. Square your shoulders and do it, eyes wide open. Fascinating encounter.

Oh, yes, Algol strikes fear in a lot of hearts, but so does the GC when people find out it is one gigantic black hole!!! You could vanish in an instant! You astral travelers might should be careful? I like to think of Algol as the GC’s Guardian. Algol is considered to be a super powerful feminine force. It would take such an entity to protect the mighty GC! Algol is ready to stomp her feet and ‘invite’ you to travel, or takes you another place once the GC’s info has been bestowed, a place that needs the information the most.

Algol is in Taurus, the first Venus sign, has a sensual touch, loves earthy beauty, sculpts its own existence! Libra, the second Venus sign is an air sign. Venus may love perfumes and dance, more sophisticated styles. The profound Galactic Center is in fiery Sagittarius, the next sign after Scorpio. The GC is enjoying lots of laughs and adventure stories, sends rays and bolts of information we are barely capable of downloading let alone understand, and it’s not on anyone’s schedule! Though ‘compatible’ signs, Libra generally prefers a more gentile pace, more quiet conversation over tea, and formal by invitation or appointment meetings, tête-à-têtes. Libra will find themselves being pressed to use their negotiating skills – tact and diplomacy, and loosening up in spite of themselves! They don’t want to miss anything! They will be blessed with more freedom, delighted by the bucking bronco! 

Mars at 23 Scorpio is opposition Algol. The old time predictions are it is difficult to avoid accidents and severe injuries, can be an untimely ending. Scorpio is one of the ‘death’ signs, are often Hospice workers and healers, enjoy dangerous sports. Please just be a little more careful and aware of your surroundings. Be kind to yourself and others. 

Jupiter at 25 Aquarius is right in the square with Algol! Jupiter is a crazy lucky planet and can face ‘evil’ without even realizing it. Fascinating conversation, extraordinary points of view! Algol has nothing to hide, and no need to fear, so is free to share openly. Sagittarius has, at times, exceptional broadmindedness with no judgments, so doesn’t offend, yet, those two have reps as different as night and day. 

At this special time, Jupiter is about to make his final 2021 sextile, an aspect of opportunity, with the Galactic Center Dec 12! The New Moon is opening the Gateway; Mercury is right there as witness and translator. Jupiter is basking in the Light of billions of stars, in Aquarius, the sign of the heavens! I’m thinking there is some protection and a camaraderie since Algol is always in connection with the GC. The learning potential from both, their synergy, is phenomenal. Jupiter, the Sagittarian planet Centaur, has winning strong legs, a laugh that shakes the earth, and is in Aquarius, the light speed sign of the zodiac, in case there is an emergency! With an arrow over the shoulder and a flash of the tail, gone! See more about Jupiter sextile the GC!

On a fine New Moon night, things are blended, no Moonlight or shadows. There is a certain equality as the playing field is equalized. It seems more quiet, even subdued. Without the contrasts and sharp edges we are more receptive… Even if there is a breeze, there are no moving shadows… Sleep can be deeper.

This New Moon is a potent WalkAbout! Blessed be on your travels ~

Gemini/Sagittarius Full Cold MicroMoon Dec 18!

Saturday December 18, 27 Gemini/Sagittarius 29, 8:36 PM Pacific!

Full Moon Galactic Magic! Venus Retrograde the 19th, Relationship & Financial intensity!

Gemini Sagittarius 2021 Full Moon Thomas McKnight Barbados Art

If you were traveling in Barbados at 13° North, a Sagittarian island, on this Full Cold MicroMoon, it might be much warmer than where you live! This lovely serigraph is by famed artist Thomas McKnight, 1.1.41, a New Year Capricorn with Venus in Sagittarius, Jupiter conjunct Saturn in Taurus.

This may be the Last Lunar event, last Full Moon of 2021, but it links through 2022! We are in a 27 Degree Sequence for SIX months! 2021 Oct, Nov, Dec and 2022 Jan, Feb, and Mar start a ‘season’ of six Full Moons at 27 degrees Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo. The Full Moons at 24 to 29 degrees, will activate Algol and the Galactic Center at 26 and 27 and their Pluto connections strongly 8 times Sep 2021 to April 2022. Fixed stars Polaris – the North StarBetelgeuse in Orion are at 28 Gemini, and Procyon 25 Cn 47, will give varying additional effects per their type of connections with those signs. Note where these factors fall in your chart, which house(s). That is the section of  your life that they activate. Check with your astrologer for further personal details.

This is a Bowl chart too, with Mars also now in Sagittarius pushing the Sun. He blusters, teases, tells them why it’s all good, of the Promised Land! He trines Chiron in Aries, Aries is Mars’ own sign! They get along and Chiron is quick, with him, instantly as needed. Time to start new projects and businesses! He is sextile Saturn in Aquarius, determined to get them there! He told them he would and he will!

The nature of the Full Moon is to span the width of the zodiac! Opposites in unity! Sagittarius Father Sun is relying on Mother Moon’s scanners out there on the perimeter, and she being in Gemini, there is quite an array to be channeled. The mood of the people, the information currently circulating, makes a potent backdrop to Sun’s planning and current choices of directions. He wants to know the directions of their thinking and the maps to back it up! Mother Moon will indicate where the blockages are, where intervention and rerouting would make sense. Where things are smooth, the flows can be joined for more powerful results. Similar channels can merge their efforts to advantage. 

Mother Moon is potently in the Bowl’s lead position! Jupiter, Sag’s planet, sextiled the phenomenal Galactic Center Dec 12; Sun is in annual conjunction the Galactic Center on the 18th just before the Full Moon! With his Heart of Light he is refreshing our memories of the Dec 12 sextile, putting new Light on our intent and progress. With Sun bursting with fresh divine plans, optimism, maximum hopefulness, plus Mother Moon’s intuition, there will be a leap! She will be spreading the news just as fast as she can. Use blogs, newsletters. Place the information with people who will spread the word soonest to their people too! Contact your best most progressive friends. Nothing like fresh food for the Soul! Significant good news changes our molecules, updates our DNA! Make sure your circuits are clear and able to carry the load! Be ready to take action.

Jupiter, so recently sextile the GC, still excited, most fortunately sextiles Sun and trines Mama Moon! Sextiles and trines are astrology’s best aspects. Jupiter is the good luck, have fun, planet of faith and hope, truth and future planner! Thinks big, plays bigger! Travels just as far as it can get! Sun in Sagittarius, Jupiter’s sign, is already packed! Moon in Gemini can get bored, so buzzes happily at the idea of getting into a new neighborhood and meeting the new kinfolk, visiting brethren. This is the time for businesses and nonprofits to plan a big campaign. This is not a time to sit and wait! If you work your options, it will be a Full Moon to remember! 

During this time of Galactic contact, Venus conjuncted Pluto Dec 11th, the day before Jupiter sextiled the Galactic Center! She was set deep with Pluto in Capricorn to receive all she could. Pluto is charismatic compared to Venus’s beauty. He is a treasure hunter of significant people, deep relationships, fortunes. He saves people, like Drs Without Borders. Capricorn is historical chronicles, the Guardian of the Elder Councils, military, the Father of the Tribe, has responsibilities to his career, apprentices and family. Venus’s retrograde station is Dec 8 to 27. 19 days she holds the 24 to 26 degree position which includes the conjunction with Pluto. Venus retrogrades the 19th, the day after the Full Moon! She conjuncts Pluto the second time Christmas day, bringing back her perceptions of Dec 11. She sees how we have done, lived up to the possibilities. Venus was close with Pluto at the New Moon and is now just past Pluto at the Full Moon about to make her second conjunction with him. Some of the Christmas seating arrangements will be changed…

At the New Moon Venus sits semisextile between Sun and Jupiter, much a part of their Galactic connections. She witnesses their excitement, the values of historical worth being transmitted, the beauty and awesome possibilities of times to come, the future history we will make to leave for others after us. Venus, in her deep relationship with Pluto, will see the profound effects this will have on our financial relationships, our motives, sharing, the power of meaningful lifetime commitments. She knows it is better if some are broken, left behind, to allow changes that will multiply our success as humans by many fold. Clearly, for some it will be difficult times of transition, but worth it for the Soul’s progress. We will be cleaner, be able to give so much more than we could have known. Wishing you strength and to be steady in the Light. Clean up.

Venus isn’t done yet. See the Double Retrograde! She makes the last conjunction with Pluto March 3, two days after her retrograde cycle is done. Venus, Mars, Pluto are potently all at the same degree, 27 Capricorn! 

Mercury is also in Capricorn, so is documenting the happenings. They are happening more quickly than expected because of the Galactic connections, and because Mercury is square Chiron in Aries, fast surprises, quick imperative demands backed by the old master’s play! He wants change and wants it now! Also, Mercury trines Uranus in Taurus, Uranus the lightning planet. Who would have expected such sudden changes in Taurus? But the planet is changing right in front of our eyes and people are seeing the need for change asap! Mercury has speed of his own, and Capricorn is known for persistent action, facing reality, wanting an workable long lasting solution that ultimately saves time and money. Mercury is Gemini’s planet, so there is an accord with Mother Moon. She will help get the stories out, call on the troops.

Two days before Christmas, Dec 23, Saturn in Aquarius finalizes his 2021 squares with Uranus, the planet of Aquarius. It can be confusing. There is camaraderie and being at odds in the oddest ways! You what?! Saturn having been in AQ, has been trying to ride with the unpredictable creature. It’s somewhere between a bucking bronco and surfing! He’s now used to knowing he no longer knows. Life used to be so what it was. Now it is compounded by pandemic, climate and politics gone wild. Financial winds keep zig zagging! Friends and family are changing. Oddly, the planet of change is also a genius at work, and in Taurus of stabilizing, making things more sensible and grounded. Self reliance and the most elemental feed-ourselves vegetable gardening has thrived during the pandemic. At a time when things are so up in the air (Aquarius), we are becoming more sensible, even more simple. Being at home, many have cleaned out years of debris from their lives, gotten literally lighter. They are getting work that is more in tune with their core. Might be less money, but the happiness factor brings a smile and better health. Time for breakthroughs! See more 

Neptune in Pisces stands alone but he might lend a rainbow of inspiration! Jupiter will be re-entering Pisces again on Dec 28, and Neptune is waiting for their reunion! They have a super special aspect April 12, so have a lot to do in preparation for this once in 166 years celebration! See more about and the Astrology Chart of the 166 year Conjunction!

Pluto, Algol, Galactic Center! Pluto 25 Capricorn is trine fixed star Algol 26 Taurus 10. Galactic Center 27 Sagittarius is lock step with Algol. See all about them above in the New Moon, Fixed Stars section. The Full Moon axis is at 27 Gemini/Sagittarius 29, fully connected with them all, but most powerfully with the Galactic Center! 

Be strong and honorable in your purpose, blessed in your progress!
