Dec 26 Day after Christmas Cancer-Capricorn Full Cold Moon

Tuesday Dec 26 at 4:33 PM Pacific at 4 Cancer-Capricorn 58!

Treasures and Blessings! Memories, past life healings, some are being made right now! Have a precious Holiday and delicious Full Moon! Leftovers are the best, LOL!

2023 Cancer-Capricorn Day aft Xmas Full Cold Moon!

Beautiful Full Moon Holiday image at Condé Nast Traveler! Post by David Jefferys December 24, 2015. Sorry, I couldn’t find the photographer’s name or the location.

Hope you got lots of love and some sweet prezzies yesterday! If things weren’t so good, bless you and do the best you can. Sometimes small gains have a surprising future. You’ve got a big hug, gentle if need be, from me right now ~

This Full Cold Moon is the first full moon of the 2023-2024 winter season and the first full moon after the winter solstice. For many, Winter Solstice is considered to be the astronomical New Year.

The Magical Full Moon Bow! 

Mother Moon and Father Sun, such appropriate designations when Moon is in her own Sign Cancer, and is opposite Sun in the Father, Patriarchal sign Capricorn. Home and family, children are tended by Mama and Papa is making sure there is secure shelter, monies to support them all. They each offer their talents in behalf of the other and the little ones. Cancer Moon’s hoarding instinct is part of her talent, her photographic memory keeps accurate books, can return to the source and update. Capricorn Sun is a keen observer, and sometimes she can see through his eyes. She sees the importance and timeliness of his goals, and supports what he wants to build.

Two outer planets of opposite natures, Jupiter and Saturn, are working with them this time. Traveler, teacher, sporty Jupiter is hot but grounded in steadfast earthy Taurus. Saturn is not exactly his cool hard tough self in Pisces, but is harnessing the psychic and spiritual powers of Pisces, the etheric sign of the Dreamtime!

These characters are all closely connected in early degrees two through five. The Moon and Sun are opposite, the long red line that crosses the chart. That line is connected by three green lines – see them? That is the Bow Pattern, considered quite favorable, filled with opportunities. Cancer is quick on it, Capricorn sees the magic in it! Jupiter is fame and fortune, good luck. In Taurus he takes possession and anchors the potential immediately. Saturn is Capricorn’s planet, so he and Sun have camaraderie. They have a wizardly flavor and almost magically get the materials together, sing high praises, and it is practically a barnstorming event! Pisces brings his psychic skills to bear, and the Saturn time machine brings it all together at the right time. Yes, there will be some moments of Mercury retro delays, but even those will be dispersed into improved results!

Not only are the four planets all sextile each other but two fine trines are part of the scenario!

Sextiles connect harmonious signs of mixed elements and offer more opportunities! Moon to Jupiter might surprise you and not mind traveling or moving. Jupiter in Taurus like comfy and convenient circumstances, so a trip like that might be enjoyable. Cancers are forever scholars and Jupiterians are educators and publishers! Together they could have an excellent local business of foods, cheeses, restaurant, bed and breakfast, conference site. They would serve big city guests at their prime location.

Moon trines Saturn of her opposite sign Capricorn, so she feeds him, shares doing business with him, and he in Pisces, is also a sensitive water sign. They are psychic together, empathic and caring. Each has personal struggles, so there is a genuine camaraderie without judgment.

Sun, Father Sun, and Saturn, Father, Grand Father Time, both have positions of authority. Sun just shines his Light, has Presence, automatically leads the show at any age! Saturn is the Law, the integrity of the people, the Master Craftsman, the CEO, President, one who commands respect. These two can share powers and work stunningly together. Sun might contribute design and color, be on the marketing side of things, bring pride, heart and Soul, Spirit to an endeavor that matters more than money. Saturn may be the architect of magic, build an amazing empire then link that one with other empires! Truly inspiring.

Sun in last earth sign Capricorn trines Jupiter in first earth sign Taurus. Sun and Jupiter are both heroes, champions and LUCKY! Lion and Centaur! Sun shines and Jupiter is big hearted too, funny, a liar/truth teller and terrific storyteller! Sun performs and acts the parts much to the delight of all! Capricorn is a bit serious at times and urges taking timely responsibility. Taurus pleads Mother Earth’s case at Jupiter’s court of justice. So it’s not all fun, games and theatre. These two may be too busy to be interviewed. They each need a full team backing them!

Aspects with Neptune!

1) The Important Aspect that happens Three Times! (Retrograde) Mercury square Neptune!

Nov 27‘s Gemini-Sagittarius Full Moon was the same day Mercury in Sagittarius squared Neptune in Pisces the first time. The second square of the Two Sign Sagittarius-Capricorn Mercury Retrograde is the same day as 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! See the Mercury Retrograde Timeline. This combination has further resonance because when Mercury is in Virgo, it is opposite Pisces, Neptune’s sign, and Neptune is now powerful in Pisces! Neptune has creds! Mercury is now in Sagittarius inquisitively retrograde, looking back along its track seeing what might have been missed. There were confusing times, yet part of the test is to keep Faith. He is rethinking his perspectives, developing a more generous overview. There is a spiritual overtone since Sagittarius is a seeker, does religious studies, a sometimes churchgoer, and Neptune is THE planet of spirituality. In the long darker days of Solstice time we go a little deeper for the meanings of life, caring for each other with kindnesses. Pisces is the sign of Saviors, suffering and addictions, surrender and blessed compassion. There is so much to forgive, release, and give thanks for. Let the Highest be done and let it begin with me.

At the earth level we have seen swarms of floods, powerful water, snow, ice 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!

Mercury in Sagittarius has three flavors!

  1. Mercury’s first sign is Gemini, then Virgo. Flavored by Gemini, Mercury is of it’s opposite sign Sagittarius! 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. This foundation gives Sagittarius the command, the skilled delivery of boundless information. Given the right input by Gemini, Sagittarius becomes the sign of Abundance!
  2. Mercury flavored by Virgo often tinkers with trivial bits of information but doesn’t miss a trick! In Sagittarius, the tendency leans to right sizable pieces, and lots of them – adds up quickly! It is after not just meaningful, but 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.
  3. In addition to these Mercury sign connections, at this time retrograde, he is going back to conjunct Mars the very next day! This and in fire sign Sagittarius is double hot and spicy! Could be rowdy, rude, running fast, the winner, makes a big sale, overdoes it, has hot bully opinions, is horny! If you keep your priority on your project, you can get a lot done in a short time! Super Sagittarian lucky Mars propels us 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!Neptune is glad for Mars to come along and take up the cause as well, but he was still sleeping and Mars gleefully shouts wakie, wakie! Neptune is muttering under his breath. But Neptune is ever adjustable and they, he, Mercury and Mars, get to talking. With Mars you don’t want to miss a moment when he’s on! He’s quick and gone, next! If you are ready with the next set of requests and directions, he doesn’t delay! Your whole day is a half a day for him! Be ready to roll. He will be back for more!

Neptune, especially in his 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 crazy and you think for days!

Neptune is noted for confusion, the mystical, incomprehensible, sorrow and addictions. Mercury in Sagittarius is a heart warming communicator, 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.

Neptune in his own sign is remarkable! 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 accumulated data bank, are all part of the enormous success that may have taken many lifetimes. Neptune guides through the images of the Dreamtime.

2) Neptune at 25 Pisces sextiles Pluto at 29 Capricorn! This combo is important for two reasons! The sextile has been afoot since 1942, and Pluto reenters Aquarius Jan 20!

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!

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. Pluto in Capricorn 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.

Venus in Scorpio is secretly sweetening this mix right now! She trines Neptune Dec 25, Christmas morning! Take some special time for personal pleasures starting with breakfast in bed and a possible food fight, LOL! Open prezzies early! Family breakfast! Some fine treasures will be shared along with love and healing. Financial and spiritual blessings are both in the mix. They will continue to blossom through Venus’s sextile Pluto, Scorpio’s planet, the evening of Dec 28. Remember, Mercury is retrograde through the 1st, wait at least 4 days after that. If you want to partner or invest and you are still interested by then, it could be a remarkable deal. Check with your astrologer(s) to see how it does or doesn’t connect with your chart!

.
Chiron is ‘sitting’ at EXACT retrograde station TODAY 15 Aries 27. I say sitting, but Aries barely sits. He’s got things to do, now, LOL! Chiron is considering his options, feeling them to the core to see how they sit with him, focusing. Chiron is near the North Node, but they are both moving slowly and won’t conjunct until Feb 19, 2024. So as it is now, Chiron will be honing his skills for fast delivery of new types of healing. There will be an educational period, trial and error, provings. There may be a specific specialty concerning him now.Uranus in Taurus is one of the 3 outer higher consciousness planets!  These planets draw us past our daily experience. We are encountering great principles working together. Uranus is humanitarian, the Awakener, r/evolutionist. Taurus wants earthy beauty, looking for organic values, land, quality food, ores and minerals, safe habitats for animals. He wants to build dependable extensive networks whether an apartment building, a class action suit, or human rights. Uranus rules electronics, flight, the coming robotics. When Pluto is in Aquarius, Uranus’s sign, the two are combined as one, unimaginable electric life force! Immense possibilities. Pluto awakens the Kundalini, the fire at the base of the spine, burns away the dross, aligns the chakras and we are ON!

Jupiter in Taurus, still retrograde, 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.

Lucky Jupiter 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 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. Save our water. Jupiter rules heat!

Jan 11, 1.11.24, (Triple Ones) Capricorn New Moon!

Thursday Dec 11, 3:57 AM Pacific at 20 Capricorn 44!

Education, working the changes it brings, will be a big payoff! Positive Karma, pure Magic!

2024 Capricron New Moon Triple Ones Milky Way Ranger Kelly Carroll White Sands NP!

Rob McCorkle says: Viewed from 9,000 feet elevation on the front lawn of The Lodge Resort in Cloudcroft, distant White Sands shimmers as an immense snow-white expanse on the Tularosa Basin’s tawny desert landscape that stretches to the western horizon. Photo by Kelly Carroll, White Sands National Park’s lead interpretive ranger. 

Capricorn is an absolutely magnificent sign representing the sand, rocks, stones and the super gems of the world! It can be frozen high altitudes, graceful alluvial desert fans at their feet, rocky islands with vertical cliffs and beautiful sandy beaches, exquisite white dunes like at White Sands NM.

10 days before Pluto reenters Aquarius we are treated by this fine and powerful Capricorn New Moon! It is getting the last touch in, takes us into a deep winter night to find pure purpose, our part of the sign change. With a four planet Capricorn stellium, it will solidify four facets of Capricorn that Pluto has been fortifying in Capricorn that Aquarius may stand strong and rely on. Mars, Moon, Sun and Pluto himself.

The Dec 27 Full Cold Moon was the first full moon of the 2023-2024 winter season, the first full moon after the winter solstice. For many, Winter Solstice is considered to be the astronomical New Year. This New Moon is the first lunar event of calendar 2024! Mercury is no longer retrograde.

Unusual planetary order! The five inner, personal planets are all before Pluto, in only two signs, Sagittarius and Capricorn. The last planet in Capricorn is Pluto still in Capricorn. He and the rest of the planets, the outer ‘higher’ consciousness planets of the collective, follow – Saturn, Neptune, Chiron, Jupiter and Uranus. They span Capricorn to Taurus, two in Pisces, two in Taurus.

All of them are in a Bowl configuration spanning Sagittarius through Taurus. Bowls are clever collectors, assimilating their finds to greater purpose. When full there is a great sharing, an outpouring of their abundance! This can vary per your location around the world. A bowl at the top of the chart may act as a shelter, protector, set a perimeter. When at the sides of the chart it may be a deflector – the wind blows by, a protector, or act as a sail and push along through obstacles, join with others going their way. See more about Bowl Charts!

Venus, riding along in Sagittarius, is the base planet. She is leaving a pathway of flower petals for other pilgrims to follow. Her love keeps the tribe going, reminds them of their blessed purpose. They won’t fail. If they need to, everyone pauses and takes a break, has snacks, plays games and sings songs, both funny and inspirational! Spirits are raised and they lift their eyes to the future!

Lead planet Uranus in Taurus is steady in the Light – sunrise, sunset, starlight patterns guiding through the night. They trust him, following to some strange places, sacred ground. He has special impressive powers of lightning in a storm. They SEE the planet before them, sometimes walking barefoot, they come to an honorable union. Taurus can be a fearless unvanquished steamroller, plowing through obstacles, both mind and matter. Or they can be as gentle as petting the fur on your favorite kitten. They walk the Path with kindness, helping with simple tips, uniting neighboring peoples in a chain of gold. Uranus is the electronic planet forming a network that covers the planet like a blanket of evolutional changes of thinking. The remaining flailing strands see the possibilities and are gathered in. It’s more than education, it’s connection! Change is happening at a remarkable pace, with every breath we take.

All the planets in this chart are in three sets by degrees. Something for everyone!

  1. Mid degrees are emphasized starting with the base planet Venus 15 Sag, the New Moon at 20 Capricorn, Chiron and the North Node at 15 and 20 Aries, with Uranus, the Aquarian lead planet finishing at 19 Taurus. Venus and Uranus are specially linked because Taurus is Venus’s first sign. That’s FIVE planets and the North Node!
  2. Mars, Saturn and Jupiter are in an early degree threesome at 5, 4 and 5! They are strongly connected by close degrees: Mars in Capricorn, Saturn in Pisces and Jupiter in Taurus, harmonious earth and water signs.
  3. Neptune and Pluto stand in their late degrees 25 and 29 in their ongoing 82 year sextile. Mercury stands with them at 27 Sagittarius.

Capricorn is emphasized since all the planets in the 4 planet Capricorn New Moon stellium are linked to all three sets!

The aspects, the connections between the planets are unusual too. Since all the inner planets are in only two signs, the only major aspect that can be formed, is a conjunction. The Sun and Moon as New Moon are that and that’s it!

Other than that, the inner planets are all now making upcoming great connections with the outer planets.

Venus trines Chiron same degree, and North Node
Mercury did square Neptune the third/last time Jan 8.
Mars actively sextiles Saturn, trines Jupiter
Moon and Sun are sextile Neptune. They just passed the square the North Node and trine with Uranus!

The only outer planet aspect to each other is the 82 year Neptune in sextile Pluto.

_________________

Mid Degrees!

The New Moon has strong influence due to being the only planet to planet conjunction, and is multiply aspected with Venus, Neptune, Chiron and the North Node, and Uranus the planet of Aquarius! The New Moon in Capricorn is strongly inclined to be the boss. Mama Moon takes responsibility, is a take charge type, doesn’t matter who or how old you are! She is a pro in business, often owns her own at a young age, and raises the kids, plus taking care of the elders! Fast foods may be a necessity. She can be frugal or be a successful real estate broker, gemologist, work with the law or the DA, be in sciences/research. She is particular about her choice of mate and associates. Father may be a detriment or a fine mentor who loves her a lot. Young Caps get stronger as they get older!

Father Sun in Capricorn is a powerful leader! He holds the Light, has integrity. Sometimes he will not compromise and that may work or not. He works hard and often long hours, has grit and won’t give up. Someone needs to lock him out of the office from time to time, LOL. Burnout is no fun. Being on time means a lot to him. He is generally a dedicated parent, takes time for sports with his kids. Hiking, climbing may be favorites. They enjoy working hard and have strong endurance. Just remember not all the kids will have the same ability! Sun in Capricorn does demand excellence, which can be inspiring. They make terrific mentors, understand when you are not at your best. They are known for long careers and don’t quit even when they retire!

Cancer and Capricorn are deeply bonded by natural instinct. Traditionally Mother Cancer Moon is home and family, care and feeding. Father Capricorn is shelter provider, protector, earns the money, builds the business. She nurtures him, softens his sharp moments, encourages him in hard times. He has such pride in her, is grateful for the comfortable home she makes, helps her when he can. In astrology their signs are the prime vertical axis representing home, cultural beliefs, and being out in the world at large in one’s own community.

Venus, Chiron, North Node! Capricorn’s New Moon’s closest connection is square with Moon’s North Node at 20 Aries! That’s a challenge because the North Node is working for independence and Capricorn needs to have control. Right. Aries was born to rebel and you better prove to him why you should rule, or forget it. He’s fearless and threats of any kind won’t help or be minded. He can outrun you. Capricorn is confronted by some basics. Should he waste time with this interloper or work out some agreements because this wild creature is creative, has terrific ideas, works well with no supervision and is super productive! Ok, and Capricorn is offering work and it’s a sincere project Aries can get behind. So let Aries do it his way, and let Capricorn periodically check in to make sure things are going as planned, to see if Aries needs any tools or materials. Give each other high praise, but don’t carry on and on. Got it?!

Venus in Sagittarius She is helping. She is now in a same degree trine with Chiron in Aries, who is with the Node! blessing the speed that he is operating at, getting new healing techniques and remedies, doing the research promptly! Chiron is always happy to connect with her. In Sag, she wants to carry the messages out into the world, educate us all to the perspectives of Chiron’s medicines, changes he inaugurates. She may bring him some funding that makes the difference! The North Node’s general motion is always retrograde, so will be connecting with them both. The NN in Aries is always looking to the find the best new ways to start new ventures. There will be fruitful encounters.

Part of the importance of Node events is they are trying to balance the opposite signs. 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.

Chiron is fast at 15 Aries, no longer retrograde he’s even faster! Fresh and 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!

The New Moon has passed Venus, Chiron/North Node, and is just past Uranus by one degree. Moon and Sun have been in a favorable trine friendship with Uranus the Aquarian planet. All of them are in earth signs, looking for simple and practical timely fixes for what ails the planet. They are all supportive to Pluto going into Aquarius on the 20th. Capricorn is the sign preceding Aquarius, so understands the gravity of Pluto’s shift, the necessity of strengthening the channel between the two signs. New friends, networks are being established. Changes in science and research are being tried and updated, smoothed. Business is taking on new tones on how it works. Relationships are shifting in their reasons to be formed.  Stay informed!

Early degrees 5, 4 and 5, threesome! 

Saturn, Capricorn’s planet is emphasized by being the midpoint between Mars in Capricorn and Jupiter in Taurus. They have sextiled Saturn, opportunities of mixed element signs. He collects information from both of them, synthesizes, sends the new plans back to each of them. He’s the architect and changes certain deadlines. Mars and Jupiter, two fire planets are happily trine each other, occasionally plot a rebellion against the master who is much too slow and sometimes too etheric for them, LOL! Yet Mars in Capricorn is quite more careful than usual, and Jupiter in Taurus doesn’t realize how slower and more relaxed he is now. He is more patient and thinks to the root. I’m not worried. Capricorn is often to the point quickly while Jupiter in Taurus sees a longer vision and shows how the step by step process becomes more valuable and worth the careful work. They will work it out. Their work may be more important than many now realize.

More about Jupiter! 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 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! Save our water. See more: 2023-24 Aspects and other Sign Changes! Immense possibilities are coming! See more about Jupiter conjunct Uranus! This aspect alone will jump us a few light years ahead!

More about Saturn! 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!

♦♦ Not only do we have New Moon and two other planets in Capricorn, but Saturn, Capricorn’s planet, is standing tall and productively at Midpoint, an empowering position, between Mars and Jupiter!

Late Degrees! Neptune sextile Pluto 82 years, Mercury with them!

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!

Mercury currently with them squared Neptune Jan 8, a mere moment compared to 82 years! But this was the third time Mercury was present at these three last lunar events, both of the two previous times with the Full Moons on the same day! There is a carryover of these two ‘opposite’ planets. Mercury rules Virgo, the sign opposite Neptune’s sign Pisces which Neptune is now in! There are some details Mercury wants to be included, adjusted by Neptune’s spiritual insight. It will be a mini breakthrough, but clears the way to keep things on track. Mercury currently in Sagittarius is doing something like a blowup, maybe an exaggeration to get the attention it needs. There is an adjustment needed in the plan and direction it is taking. Take another look, see what’s missing.

2023 Capricorn Triple One New Moon!

The angel statue, Statue of Victoria, Siegessaule Tiergarten Berlin is situated in the Berlin Victory Column. Designed by Heinrich Strack after 1864. This double exposure gives the allusion to the #11!

1.11 Triple Ones!

New possibilities are on the way! One stands independently, often alone and likes it, no interference or delays. As a leader, they get things done and followers support them. Some would say they have courage, but they would say it was nothing – to them it is simply natural. It does take personal strength to be alert, to accurately read your surroundings and respond appropriately. It takes a bit of physical strength at times to take care of business.

Life is about to take a turn! Time to let go and move on. Spiritual awakenings are afoot. Initiation. One is new beginnings, fresh and free! Follow your heart. Be mindful of your higher purpose; be with people who support your Path. Time to take action!

Double Ones, Eleven, are called a Master Number, double power! There is possibly dual leadership potential or two possibilities side by side. Some say it represents alignment with your spiritual guides, the Angels! Erica Jensen says: ‘11 angel number symbolizes the discovery of your true calling in life, the realization of the spiritual realm, and letting go of negative thought patterns that are preventing you from attaining your objectives. Taking responsibility for our lives and learning how to let go of fear (along with other negative emotions) are two key ways in which this special number might improve your life.’

Blessed be. Follow your own intuition and insights. Stay true.

Education, working the changes it brings, will be a big payoff! Positive Karma, pure Magic!

2024 New Year AstroLogical Chart!

In Santa Barbara Ca, the MidHeaven/IC axis is opposite the Galactic center! The chart’s Mars is exactly conjunct the GC no matter where the chart is calculated! It’s going to be a LONG amazing ride! 

This is a Virgo Moon Handle Bucket Chart starting 2024! (See her out there all by herself to the left?!) Mama is making a superlative classic harmony Female-Male Earth trine with Master Sun in Capricorn. She’s the worker bee community service rep, all details are finely done, and Capricorn oversees the entire project, time management, sets up the presentations. They are fueled by Jupiter in Taurus, completing a GRAND EARTH TRINE! Jupiter has been behind them, making sure needed materials are at hand. He has long term plans that they are putting into action for him. It’s a blessed team. See more about Bucket Charts!

Regardless of their parts they play, Mother Moon is the primary in this double (at Santa Barbara) Virgo chart, Moon and Ascendant! She is out front for all to see. Her manners will be important, ready words of response, well selected and both technical and heartfelt will be important. She will be taking their cause or sale of their goods, out to the public. The details she discloses or not will make a difference. Some she meets will have health issues that will bias their attention. She may have to address their personal physical discomforts before they are able to fully listen.

She also has to have ready ears. They want to ‘sell’ their points of view as well. She needs to be keen to listen when the conversation shifts to what they have to offer. That may be a subtle turning. Could require an immediate kind response and gratitude or the connection is lost… It means a lot for some people to give. It may be a small offering, but so significant that others follow suit if well received. Also, Moon is gathering informations to take home to her people. Her efficiency and details can make all the difference to their future success.

There is a three planet Sagittarius mini STELLIUM! It’s bouncy in contrast with the more steady and serious Earth Trine! Venus loves the Path, the possibilities, she is inconjunct Jupiter, the Sagittarius planet so ties in with the Grand Trine. They could find a place to sit that has a view to put a big breath into your vision! There ARE places to go! They will have a good chat, she will bless and grace him with the beauty and value of her ideas. She will leave him, but he is excited to expand his plans and perspectives! Jupiter Taurus!

Venus is also square Saturn. We don’t always get what we want in the time we want, at the price we want. That includes relationships. Venus in Sagittarius is kinda runaway anyway. She gets bored easily. Sometimes she needs to settle down and this tests her patience and dedication, her word. Sometimes she signs up and has learned this isn’t for her, isn’t what it seemed to be, and it’s best to mosey on down the road. She may be without work for a while, and finds she’s ok with that until something more right for her Soul is offered. She may be impressed by the stature of a spiritual Soul, but find that is not the reason to linger. As much as someone else admires her, it may seem like a prison to a butterfly! Wait for a bit, keep traveling, this will pass. Wait for mutual purpose. Focus on your education, topics that make your heart sing! Great way to meet like minded others! Invest cautiously, a smaller trial amount to test it.  Saturn in Pisces 

Mercury is finishing up 2023’s last Retrograde this very day, turns forward at 7:07 PM Pacific!! He is in Station, focusing on the coming changes, important plans for 2024 but is also being released by this turn! Mercury has been up to 8 Capricorn, but back to 22 Sagittarius to update intentions, adjust directions, path choices in view of the important jobs Capricorn is now dedicated to. Mercury checks the ethics, the whole Truth, the honest purpose and renews inspiration and faith in the team. And Mercury reminds Cap to have FUN, LOL! Schedule that play date!

In the upcoming days Mercury will be squaring Neptune in his own sign Pisces. Mercury in a fire sign is like greased lightning even when he is in station, which he will be through the 5th. Mercury is logical, and in Sagittarius practically sees straight to the core in a hot second! But. Neptune is SO different. Silent, smooth, no angles, morphs a minute, distractible, discerning of the deeper meanings beyond Sagittarian mere perspectives. Sometimes Neptune doesn’t make sense, is indiscernible, seemingly at times invisible, even inaccessible… That drives ‘I wanna know NOW’ Mercury nuts! Yet Mercury comes to find even not knowing is a legitimate state of mind, even freeing, relaxing, opening! Even Sag and Mercury have to learn there are different ways of communicating. The answer may BE there is no answer. Sometimes Sag is very broadminded and takes it in stride, and sure enough, not pushed, the revelation connection comes. If it’s an emergency, do your best. Neptune in Pisces

Btw, 2024-25 is Neptune’s last time in Pisces until 2175. It enters Aries 3.30.25. These are signs of Initiation, Pisces of Soul, Dream matters, and Aries the physical Action, Doing it!

Mars already did square Neptune, bathed in the deep waters, explored the underwater mountains. Exotic terrain. Sometimes it’s clear as a cathedral bell at morning, other times its murky and you have no idea where you are, even totally dark. Surrender can be a key word. Let loose and let Neptune take you where you have never been. Flow with the currents. Your perception changes. You can be confused or simply free, no agenda. You get where you get. You learn how to ‘listen’ more deeply, find a meaningful place in yourself that you are not willing to give up. You are on God’s time in God’s place. You may rush or not, but you will know when to do which. You have been initiated to yourself.

Mars is hard to hold back! Fire planet in Fire sign! He’s at 27°, almost there already! Capricorn Sun groans, sees him coming. Cap likes order, but he realizes Mars is mainly ungovernable. But Mars does get and keeps things going, finds amazing options in a twinkling, is downright disgustingly cheerful against all odds. Ok, ok, let him. Then Cap can just work. Mars is self starting, so if they have mutual goals, we aren’t always sure how they will get done, but no matter how, it will probably be faster than expected! He could show up on his bike or a horse! As a cosmic first responder, just don’t get in his way, LOL! Mars might make a game of it and everybody plays and wins!

Oh, did I say these Sagittarian three might take you on a trip? They could make news, write up their ad/ventures, go viral! Not exactly unusual or wholly unexpected, but not average either! Keep your eyes open!

We were talking about Venus square Saturn. Also, Sun squares Chiron. Both are challenges to relationships and biz. Chiron is health, marriage, business. In Aries, Chiron too is restless, like Venus in Sagittarius the traveler. Not only is it restless, but independent! Sun in Cap likes to be the boss. Chiron always did think for himself. It takes a lot to impress him and even then, he’s still independent, though more likely to listen, LOL! Sun may put him on the spot to get those new remedies going, and Chiron wouldn’t really mind that because that’s what he wants too, soonest! May be a better time to work and do business than do forever things like marry. Take it easy and go by your heart. Check with your astrologer.  Chiron in Aries

Uranus stands rather alone. Planets are moving along from him. He’s retrograde, ok in Taurus, thinking things through, letting the synapses make their connections, paving the way for further inventions. Takes the time it takes. Plenty of changes are happening around him, impinging on promising concepts. Retrograde, he is slowly reviewing what has passed, at times quickly updating here and there as further insights occur! Retrials are being done. Though it looks like he is simply sitting still, a lot is going on in that genius brain of his!  Uranus in Taurus

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 these planets. The harmony of the three outer planets draws us past our daily experience. We are encountering great principles working together. Aquarius is the sign of the third outer planet, Uranus, the humanitarian 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 20, 2024 Jupiter conjunct Uranus! This aspect alone will jump the three outer planets a few light years ahead!

What we don’t see in the chart is the exciting April 8 Aries New Super Moon TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE that precedes the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction! Open your Soul and live big! See more at GrandMother Moon! Eclipses, New & Full Moons, More!

Right now Pluto in Capricorn is at 29 degrees, 29 being the last degree of any sign, called the Anaretic Degree. In some ways it is considered fateful, a final point, whatever is, is. It can be the last chance, no turning back. It is also a degree of maturity, accomplishment, peak performance. There is a certain suspense wondering exactly how things will end, afraid of unknown territory, a kind of starting over with no skills, yet excited to move on. Pluto will make the shift back into Aquarius Jan 20, 2024.  

Sep 1 to Nov 19 is the final time for Pluto in Capricorn, brief but super concentrated, in station at the 29th (anaretic) degree the whole time. It will be making indelible memories of skills and purposes. The other strong feature of this period is the Jupiter in Gemini sextile station with Chiron in Aries within this final review period! Healing is speeded up as final updates are incorporated, last foundations are strengthened, cemented, secured. Due to this base security, from there they are also free to loosen and quickly expand beyond immeasurably! 

The three exact sextiles are Oct 12, Nov 2 and May 18 2025. Their Oct-Nov aspects are very close together. The 1° STATION starts Sep 25 and ends Nov 18, 54 days! It gives Pluto a healing send off. The sextile’s last station day is the day before Pluto enters Aquarius its final time, until 2044!

For those of you who celebrate! Gong xi fa cai! Feb 10, 2024 starts the Yang-Wood Dragon Lunar Year! Yang-Wood is connected to green, the tall trees, forest, or wooden posts – growth. The most revered animal, the magical Dragon, represents power, success, honor, luck, vigor, and charm! It is equivalent to the Western zodiac sign, Aries, leadership and independence! If your Dragon is born during the sign Aries, look it up! It’s a potent combination! In the sum number of 2024 – 8, the priority is practicality and material wealth, infinity! The year of the Wood Dragon occurs only every 60 years, last were 1904 and 1964. Famous Wood Dragons are René Lacoste, Lenny Kravitz, Sandra Bullock, Jack Ma, Keanu Reeves, Kamala Harris. 

2024 will bring a plethora of advance ideas to be organized, steadfast work building dreams and visions!

BLESSED BEST IN ’24!

Christmas-New Year Planning ’23-’24!

2023 Mercury Retrograde Sag-Cap 2018 UMass Student Farm Crew!
.
The 2018 UMass Student Farm crew, having fun and working hard! Sagittarius is learning; Capricorn is experiential! The UMass Student Farm is a great success! Happy students are fast learners! Sustainable Food & Farming!

See the complete Mercury Sagittarius-Capricorn Retrograde Timeline for further details! Christmas-New Year Retrograde planning info! Nov 25 2023 to Jan 20 2024 Cycle, Retrograde Dec 12 to New Year’s Day, starting 2024 properly, LOL!
.
The significance of this Retrograde is to powerfully transition Pluto from Capricorn to Aquarius. The entire cycle ends the very day Pluto returns to Aquarius! Background context… The whole holiday RX cycle 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 in the future. 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. Strengthening everything Aquarius continues to be essential since Pluto is still preparing for that 20-21 Aquarian years to come. Pluto returns to Aquarius Jan 20, 2024.
.
This last of 2023 Mercury retrograde cycles, first of 2024, starts adding Fire to the mix. We will need that cheerful warmth as Pluto moves into Air sign Aquarius. Sagittarius calls us to brainstorm, collaborate, learn of the new Aquarian ways. We will go forward and double back to see matters from both directions and the wide angle lens of Sag! Some things will be funny and fun! Happy handshakes all around!The strength of Capricorn takes us right into the thick of things and the building continues! The Goat is wire strong, the one with the high mountain rocky views. They have extraordinary agility traversing dangerous territory in often dramatic weather conditions. They are smart. Human goats have a knowing about them, are the best at business, conserve energy and don’t waste time. They are phenomenal architects and they build to last, are super talented renovators naturally skilled at remediation. We will be needing them. 2023 is the beginning of further revelations to come! It will present options never thought of before. All will be called on to sort things out, move steadily forward.Two signs. Mercury at 22 Sagittarius starts the cycle, making plans, expanding everything, inspiring hope! Mercury moves up to 8 Capricorn, stations there for 8 days, retrogrades Dec 12. At this point, Capricorn is very important as Pluto is back in Capricorn finishing his first retrograde back from Aquarius. Mercury in Capricorn builds our mental skills, puts us to artisanal work using our hands. Mindful attention, responsible communications are emphasized. Historical guidelines can be helpful. Renovation and remedial skills are valuable – but be a bit cautious during retrogrades since changes will undoubtedly occur. When changes are made, date and everybody signs. Generally there is no waste of time or materials, but better prices may be found four days after New Year. Mercury maintains the client lists, sends birthday remembrances to them and loved ones. Thanks to long time clients there are invitations to timely special events, awards, and sales. Optimistic and fun loving Sagittarius keeps Capricorn reminded of their happy plans, keep everyone’s minds on the big plan, to gleefully leap like a Centaur over any obstacles! With the Sag keen eyes and the Capricorn fix-anything ability, together we can do this! All of it!

Mercury goes back to 22 Sagittarius, turns forward 1.1.2024, stations for eight days, finishes the entire cycle Jan 20! Well done!

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. Three chances!

Spirit of Saturn

Important Retrograde Direct Stations!

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. See more!

Both of Virgo’s summer Mercury retrograde stations activate the same degrees of the stations in this retrograde. The previous 8-23 Rx station will be activating the Jan 1 22° Sagittarius direct station. The previous 9-15 direct station degree activates the Rx 8 Capricorn degree of this one! Those of you with 8 and 22° factors in your charts will be activated again but from different signs. 

More: Mercury’s Aug 23, 2023 Rx station was at 21 Virgo 51 was almost at 22°. The Jan 1, 2024, New Year Mercury Direct is at 22 Sagittarius 10, and the Nov 25 2024 RX is 22 Sag 40. Granted this is a wide spread of dates, but nevertheless, some things that Virgo set up this summer/fall will be questioned and updated. Sagittarian 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 and Jan 1 will become.

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 advance extra funding in case you need it.


Sagittarius is a BIG spender, and Capricorn wants to be tops, but is willing to compromise at times to come in on budget or on time. He is a tough negotiator and gets excellent prices on materials. Sag wants a temple of renown, regal, grand and glorious. Cap is realistic but if has no budget or time limit, will build the finest, of uncompromising awesome award winning design! Both Sag and Cap enjoy a superlative view.

Mercury in Sagittarius wants educational opportunities for all at every level. Due to their traveling inclinations, studies of foreign cultures and philosophies can be great for increasing international business, import/export, travel businesses, get best prices on materials from other continents, incorporate learning techniques from all over the world. Mercury in Capricorn encourages business schools and hands on technical training, special studies with old masters of the trade. They can deal with time-saving equipment, make more sustainable living conditions especially in highlands, cold areas, secure quality housing for seniors. They are experts with boundaries, fencing, gateways, stonework. They help with making laws that protect us.

Relationships?

Depending on the sign, some Retrogrades are pretty tough on relationships formed initially during a RX. Sagittarius, Aries and Aquarius in combo are usually not the marrying kind. Sagittarius, the Traveler, doesn’t stay home, so you need to be ok with that or go with. As children, they are the most likely to run away. You see that a mind changing retrograde just adds to the restlessness.

Capricorn tends to seriously marry, but with the retrograde, the promise may not be able to be kept. Not a recommended time for marriage. Wait. Caps are good at waiting. If it’s good, it’s worth waiting for. Let it be tested. If it passes, go for it. Capricorns want to make a long lasting stable home, be good parents and providers. They also want to make the rules, so be ready to negotiate or be ok with the rules. They expect you to work for the relationship. Surrender is called for at times. But giving up too much can harm you, in turn, the relationship. Get to know each other well for that minimum 6 months before any marriage planning takes place.

Have your astrologer help you pick a super date, time and place! AstroLocality makes a difference! If you change the location, have the chart recalculated.

State of Mind, Work and Health

Mercury in Sagittarius can think of a trillion things, speculating on every combination! They are distractible, sometime irritable if interrupted telling a grand story. Burnout can happen, wake up at night or never go to sleep. Or there can be no care n the world, down for the count, up early, off and running. No time for coffee! If you don’t keep up you will be left behind. They’re gone. They can often eat just about anything, but may suffer allergies. Sagittarians can be broadminded or perfectly opinionated! One pointed, a centaur with blinders with the muscle to prove whatever they believe! Generally cheerful and optimistic! Sporty and need to not pull a muscle or overdo an exercise or activity. Best entertaining teachers, generous. Produce terrific seminars, conferences. Wear comfy airy clothes.

Mercury in Capricorn is at work, no folderol, keeping the timeline, wears the classy suit. If they can’t keep a promise or commitment, they are not happy campers. They can just get super tired and depressed at times. Learning limits doesn’t always come easy they are so determined. But when their work pays off, they are so proud. Often they get stronger as they get older, learning from their mistakes. They are wise reality mentors, bring the ones following them to become the best that can be! Capricorns are often the speakers at conferences representing top companies. Skin, bones and joints need watchful care. They are survivors, aren’t quitters and have grit in tough situations. Admirable.

2021 Jupiter Aquarius Sextile the Mighty Galactic Center GC

Special three times REPEAT ASPECTS!

 Please check the complete Timeline below to see the event dates in context with other important aspects, Full and New Moons.

1) Mercury in Sagittarius square Neptune. First two squares are with Full Moons, Nov 27 Gemini-Sagittarius, then Dec 26 day after Christmas Cancer-Capricorn! Each will have a certain degree of confusion, but the second will probably have the most due to Mercury being mind changing retrograde at that time. Mercury wants to be logical while Neptune doesn’t adhere to any rules whatsoever, lives in spirituality, psychic realms and the no rules dreamtime! Confusion is a gift of ‘seeing’ out of the box because there is no box, LOL! Nothing to stop you! It means we are seeking trying to find the way. Anything can happen! Let it! Sagittarius, the see forever sign is quite happy with the super dimensions happening! Did you see that?!

Mercury in Capricorn has two favorable aspects, sextile Saturn and trine Jupiter! Saturn says let’s get the job done. Jupiter says let’s go play!

2) Mercury in Capricorn sextiles Saturn, Capricorn’s planet! Yippee, takes one to know one, what trouble they could get in together! Don’t be fooled by Capricorn. They love a good trick and getting away with things now and again, LOL, right? However, logic and structures go together. They are the natural architects of the Universe! Mercury has the precise information Saturn has been needing. Saturn being in Pisces has tremendous psychic savvy and puts things together fluidly, in way never imagined would/could happen! It’s magic! Mercury keeps gathering the threads as things develop. It’s like gathering the Sagittarian fiery horse’s reins and putting them on the heavy work. No problem! Done! The retrograde aspect is on Capricorn Day, Winter Solstice! The sunbeams will lead us, focus at the place! Time may seem to stand still for some moments, for us to savor our perceptions. Sit with your architect and sketch out the plan. It will be a special time to take time with your elders and the ancestors. The third aspect is the day before the last of all three aspects, Mercury trine Jupiter. The baton will be passed. Mercury and Jupiter will carry the wisdom forward in their stories and teachings.

3) Mercury in Capricorn trine Jupiter in Taurus is the last of the three aspects of this Mercury retrograde set. Earthy Taurus and Capricorn are doing practical and sensible things. Mercury in Capricorn looks seriously at meaningful structures, from churches, temples, museums, schools/universities, to sustainable housing, special safe housing for elders. We’re looking at more functional systems, establishing more capable information exchange worldwide. Mercury retrogrades between the first and second aspects, right on the Sagittarius New Moon! Sagittarius is Jupiter’s sign, so there is a strong harmonic between them. It may be discussed how important it is to publish some of their work. People need to travel more to see, touch and experience new choices being put into practice. Jupiter enhances and expands the ideas Mercury brings! While Mercury is putting the puzzle together, Jupiter is making more puzzles! Linkage is everything, and it is FUN!

The GRAND FINALE of the entire Mercury RX cycle is Jan 19th, 20th!!!! The last aspect, this trine, is made the 19th! Capricorn rules time; Jupiter is standing by in Taurus, 100% available! The 20th, Sun makes its annual conjunction with Pluto at 29 (last degree) Capricorn! Intense! All that LIGHT with the underworld’s DARK planet! Revelation time! Pluto is being brightened, illumined. Enlightenment! If you can see it you can heal it. Be there, 5:46 AM Pacific! Sun enters Aquarius 6:07 AM. After the ‘cleansing,’ Pluto is ready to return to Aquarius that same day, 4:50 PM! He is freshened, ready to step in strong! Aquarius, the evolutionary sign, will scatter remaining debris in all directions. The sacred debris will be aired out and re gathered by the Tree People who will breathe new oxygen to it. It will be reassembled in a new form. It has been stored in the dark waiting for this time for a long time. Time to breathe again. And with that, the Mercury cycle ends. Job done – the Pluto transition has been made. Mercury is the planet of the Breath of Life.

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.   Pluto in Aquarius 2023 to 2044!   Pluto’s First Seven Years in Aquarius 2023-29     100 Days of FOUR Outer Planets sign changes in 2025!

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

Retrograde Planet Diagram

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.

Inner planets – Mercury, Venus, Mars – retrogrades have three phase cycles. Sun and Moon don’t retrograde. 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 Direct, ‘forward,’ and goes over the same degrees a third time, adds finishing touches, makes experienced final adjustments before it moves on.

Inner Planets! 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. Moon and Sun never Retrograde. About 25% of the population has Mercury Retrograde, and that includes celebrities, LOL!  Fun read: Fascinating Facts About Being Born During Mercury Retrograde

Double Retrogrades! Mercury RX 3-4 times a year allows Mercury and Venus, and Mercury and Mars to frequently have overlapping retrograde periods. Venus and Mars very infrequently have double retrogrades. I looked back to 1900 and found none. The next time will be briefly Dec 14-27, 2037. That’s rare. Mercury is also RX until Dec 18, 2037! so we have TRIPLE inner planet RX for 4+ days! That’s even more rare.

Outer planets operate quite differently! Jupiter, Saturn Chiron, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto retrogrades happen every year for much longer times. These slow movers a commonly retrograde months at a time. Chiron through Pluto are generally 6 months on, 6 months off. Sometimes all of them are retrograde for months all at the same time. Other times all are moving forward at the same time! At this time, Neptune and Pluto move only about 3 degrees per year. Often the degrees overlap and certain degrees will be activated 5 times over a 3-4 year period. We use Stations much less for emphasis with them because they moving only 3 degrees a year, they are always making a close aspect to your chart factors the whole year. Also, if using a 5 degree range to consider the time of effectiveness, they can be activating your chart a year in advance! If you have factors one degree after another, that sequence can be activated for many years as each degree is activated. We often refer to those years as a certain period of our lives.

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. The most successful world corporations often have many retrogrades in their charts! They have super expertise on several fronts and it is still growing with the times! Retrogrades keep us mindful and present.

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!

Mercury, Venus or Mars Retrograde Matters by Sign! These correlate with the houses.

1 Aries: Personal matters, exercise, vehicle, courage, first responders, right fighter, defender of the helpless and hopeless, independence.
2 Taurus: Your body, beauty, financial comfortability, are founders, meaningful possessions, land, food sources, sustainability, values.
3 Gemini: Mind, breathing, lungs, hands, shoulders. Attention, learning skills, communications. Neighborhood.
4 Cancer: Home, family, Mother, Children, safe food, matriarchal ancestors, memory, deepest feelings, security, art, collections.
5 Leo: Love, Heart, Light, Creative expression, color, parties, theatre, presentations, teaching, giving, self realization.
6 Virgo: Caretaking of self and others, organization, records, pets, gardening – organic quality food, maintenance, crafts/craftsmanship, the finest.
7 Libra: Relationships, equality, negotiation, the Law, fine arts & beauty – theatre/symphony/museums.
8 Scorpio: Deepest relationships, passion, invincibility, shamanic healing, rebirth-death, financial power, privacy, removing pollution, detoxing.
9 Sagittarius: Spiritual studies, world systems, travel, truth, trust, wide open space, views, teaching, storytelling.
10 Capricorn: Family provider, Father, patriarchal history, incredible building, career, responsibility, science, retirement, aging, elders.
11 Aquarius: Freedom, friendship, networking, electronics, research, r/evolution, the cutting edge, the uncommon, flight, space, stars!
12 Pisces:  Being spiritual, compassion, music, magic, night time entertainment, symbology, profound images, cruises, good health for oceanic habitat and her beings.

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. Stations 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 it makes or doesn’t to your chart factors, and houses it activates 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 prioritized, whether they are processed or not.

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 or interest. There can be a turning away from things we are done with that we never thought we would change about, yet here it happens… Or old ideas are simply abandoned. Just done.

Sometimes retrogrades cross Portals, where sign 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 so it will be a better time. 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. 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, kindness, 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 chart retrograde(s), it can be a doubly 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 there are 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 during the day can make a big difference. Moon changes sign every 2 1/4 to 2.5 days. It changes a degree approximately every 2 hours. Sometimes just waiting a few minutes or an hour can make a significant difference! Best of luck to you.

Retrogrades can drive you crazy and still be a terrific asset if you know how to use them! Remember, the most successful corporations often have many retrogrades.

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.

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.

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.

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!

In our immediate future! It is no surprise Sagittarius is the Seer since it is the sign of the GALACTIC CENTER, the center of our Milky Way galaxy! The Sag Sun’s annual Conjunction is a powerful time for meditation! Dec 18, 2023 about 8:45 PM Pacific the Sun is 27 Sagittarius 00. Currently the GC is thought to be very early in the 27th degree, so that night would be considered to be the strongest direct time to connect. Do as you intuitively feel is the right time for you, do several days or just the one. Blessed be. Previous post on the GC!

June 3 Sagittarius/Gemini Full Strawberry Moon!

Saturday June 3, 8:42 PM Pacific at 13 Sagittarius/Gemini 18

Open up to wild communications over the distances! Positive career choices!

2023 Sag-Gemini Full Strawberry Moon Celebrate Studio Bicyclette Style!

Celebrate the Strawberry Moon! See the Studio Bicyclette page for sumptuous decadent details of their ‘soulful summer soiree’ and for ideas you may decide to try! They say ‘it is also referred to as the rose moon because of the reddish tint it receives from being so close to the horizon. The dusted rose hint dances in the distance and watches over us with a beautiful glow and the promise of a rosy summer.’ ‘ The evening was photographed by the exquisitely talented Scarlet O’Neill.’

We have a rogue Full Moon chart! It is what is called a Locomotive pattern, with just an empty trine between the lead planet Mars in Leo and Mother Moon in Sagittarius following all the planets not caring particularly that she is last! Runaway Sagittarius is the last fire sign and has people to see and places to go! There is no such thing as a back seat, and Sag leads from wherever he is! Moon doesn’t mind being swept away, she’s off to see the Wizard! Moon is devilishly intuitive and takes the wrong right turn every time, getting there first! She will shortly pass Pluto at 0 Aquarius and put him in charge while she carries onward, going through the entire zodiac in only 27-28 days! She will give him the latest news from afar and local. He in AQ will take it in fully and clear the path to adjust their course. While Moon is still leading from behind, she will spell out their group purpose in broad terms, with room enough for everyone to be happy in their personal niche! She is having fun and she, as the sweep, talks up best what they hope to do and they want it too, so they link arms and sing the song of their journey together as they proceed!

Moon had just trined Mars in Leo, the frisky lead planet. Sagittarius can be the procrastinator, but Moon is too savvy, is used to seeing all the signs routinely, has a restless Spirit. Mars can be lazy, laying by the pool, but he loves to show off and has a big heart, so doesn’t shirk his duties for long. He’s a born leader, has the prowess to impress! How can he let them down?!

Sun, always opposite a Full Moon, is in ever curious Gemini, has been getting the news. Leo Mars loves new and being first to take action! Sun, THE fire planet, is Leo’s planet, Gemini spins the snare and off they go!

Moon doesn’t miss a trick! She is trine Chiron the Shaman, collects him and his healing gear, ready to tend any accidents, bruises, sore muscles. He’s her living first aid kit! All of them will be sharing new teaching and healing practices, offering roadside alternative healing one can do for yourself, right here, right now.

Chiron’s power is further connected with his very close semisextile with Taurus Mercury conjunct Uranus! Not only did Chiron and Uranus live in semisextile 13 years, they semisextile again! Mercury of mind is wildly right with the genius wild card of higher mind Uranus! Who knows what to think?! Chiron in Aries is pushy and demanding, wants their amazing answers yesterday! In spite of being in Taurus, thought to be slow, Mercury and Uranus together operate at the speed of Light! They have cutting edge, ahead of their time, solutions to planetary (climate) and humanitarian matters that Chiron would love to have the key too! Some surprises may please us, others scare us, that given time may prove to be sensible solutions!

Venus is in Cancer, Moon’s sign. She may know just the right foods, quality organic food, along the way. She will shortly change signs, into Leo and be opposite Pluto in AQ. Both will be looking for deeper methods, the sources of troubles, want to cure the cause. Cancer looks to family, cultural discrepancies, things in our memories. Pluto is a natural born cleaner of psychological matters, that sometimes obstruct abdominal matters. We often need a lot of support to let go of long held obsessions/compulsions. It seems like we would die without them when, in truth, we may die because of them! Too much possession can be burdensome and the Soul is constantly in recovery. Let go of the stress. Get some of those Venus Cancer hugs and appreciation. She may take you to a safe place to rest.

Neptune is also in league with them. Venus has just trined him, has a deeper sense of compassion than usual. He took her on a Spiritual tour of sufferers and recoverers. She knows more now how to help us cross some of the thresholds that have scared us and saved us! Both are artistic, so creating beauty, symbols of our journey, may help us to see more clearly for ourselves, get us in touch with our higher selves. When we can see beauty and possibilities, that is the signal to our subconscious that we can do it! If you can see it, you can heal it.

Neptune is in Pisces sextiles Pluto in Aquarius. Jamie Partridge refers to this as an inter-generational planetary aspect lasting from 1950 to 2032. Both planets have changed signs multiple times in that period. Pluto now in Aquarius is important because it will last through 2044 and has significant history – American and French Revolutions and the Industrial Revolution in England. See more about Pluto in Aquarius! Right now, Neptune and Pluto are less than 60° apart, a sextile, but at the beginning and ending of neighboring ‘incompatible’ signs, Aquarius and Pisces. Pluto retrograde back into Capricorn, a compatible sign with Pisces, where they have been for many years. The Aquarius Pisces combination calls for great groups to stand for human rights and suffering. Neptune in his own sign, only every 168 years, calls for compassion for humans who are brilliant, mentally disabled, unable to socialize very well, are shockingly different than ourselves.

Teaching Moment! As of the 5.6.23 Texas Mall shooting, Jupiter, 27 Aries 42, was moving within less than 3° of squaring Pluto at 0 Aquarius. Mars, the Aries planet, 22 Cancer, was coming along to square Jupiter. Moon was at 0 Sagittarius exactly sextile Pluto. The point here is that aspects act collectively and they don’t have to be exact, especially slow movers like the Jupiter square Pluto. Here the ‘out of sign’ numerical aspect took precedence though the signs were compatible. The numerical aspect always wins. The names of signs are a human ‘adornment’ of the heavens and choice of zodiacal system ie tropical or sidereal make no difference. The technical  aspect in the sky is the factor that can’t be changed. It happens no matter what names you choose to call the signs. Some astrologers don’t use signs at all.

Only days away.

1) June 11 Jupiter jumps into Taurus! Whoopee! Jupiter loves outdoors and Taurus is our whole planet, Mother Earth, plenty of space to roam! Jupiter may enjoy Taurus’ savoring the slower pace style. There’s a sense of luxury to it though you might gain a bit of weight. On the other hand you may take up some steady exercise that calls your name every single day and you get lovely, more strong and sensuous. Your life gets stronger too! Take a round the world trip! See your AstroLocality astrologer! Jupiter is a clever traveler, teacher, learns easily from all kinds of people and cultures. Things get put together so sensibly you get a lot more done per time spent with a good return on your investment and more free time to boot! Your investments may get more stable, involve basic commodities, show very timely elemental concern for our planet. Jupiter in Taurus

2) June 19 Jupiter, now at 4 Taurus 4, will sextile Saturn in Pisces. Perhaps some workable legalities will be starting to be put into play about gun use. It’s a complex matter with good ideas on all sides. Jupiter wants justice, Saturn wants responsibility. Both want long term and to face truth and reality.

Career choices will become more clear. It may be a good time to make some professional updates, to travel in the line of business, get some excellent specialized training. Time to choose long term real estate locations, especially for professional and retirement success, good health. Complete some dreams you have held a long time. Take care of legal matters you have procrastinated about. Make/update that Will. Do things you love and enjoy. Volunteer for a work vacation in the wilderness! We will all thank you! Jupiter sextile Saturn

Very personally, just take care of YOU! Your diet matters. Get a massage. Just take time out, reduce your work load and stress. Go play! What?! Yes, go play! If you can’t take a big long trip, take a weekend mini trip. Make ridiculous silly jokes – laugh at your own! If they say you are crazy, say thanks! They are probably right about it to a certain extent. And that’s ok! It’s your crazy!

Reminder! March 23, 2023 Pluto entered Aquarius, a 246 year event! Now through 2044, 21 years, there will be significant world changes. Please continue to strengthen our Aquarian and Uranian people, those factors in your own charts!

Open up to wild communications over the distances! Positive career choices!

June 17/18 Gemini Galactic New Moon! Happy Father’s Day June 18!

Saturday June 17, 9:37 PM Pacific at 26 Gemini 43, on 18th in Eastern zone

From Galactic to right here, right now, it’s time to get the Word out and work the changes!

2023 Gemini Galactic New Moon Radio Dishes in New Mexico!

The Very Large Array, a network of radio dishes lined up with the Milky Way in New Mexico, was featured in the 1997 movie Contact. Astronomers have used it to study black holes and the regions around young stars where planets form. Radio telescopes have uncovered quasars and pulsars, and offered up the first pic of a black hole! NRAO, AUI, NSF, Jeff Hellerman

This New Moon is at the degree opposite the Galactic Center 27° Sagittarius 03′! Hello…..is anyone out there? If anyone can connect so profoundly, Gemini is the one. Gemini’s frequencies are always humming, even, maybe especially, when they sleep! They are scattered and random at times, more likely to sense the pure direction no matter how unlikely it would be from that direction. Skip the static, dream the dreams!!! A New Moon is less interfered with by the Light. Look for the darkest skies! Let the stars take you, let go of thinking… Gemini twiggles the knobs and settings until the perfect link is made! The Milky Way is our galaxy. Point your sniffers and eyes and ears that direction and sweep until you feel the twitch of the switch in your molecules! You’re in! Never will be the same again. This same complexity is mirrored in every Being. Take this special time to truly connect, especially with your Father!

Relative to Earth the GC moves a degree every 72 years, just like the stars. Here are some excerpts about the GC:

  • Kim at Galactic Center Astrology: Some say it’s an opportunity to ‘download’ new information, divinely inspired insights from higher guidance. Others say it opens the subconscious mind and lets us release blocks and limiting beliefs.
  • Phil Sedgwick is less poetic: [The GC] blasts open the root chakra in the energy system. This chakra releases the old, regenerates our energy, and lifts us off our duffs with renewed inspiration and a sense of real progress.” And: “The Galactic Center acts like a satellite dish, directing divinely inspired information straight to the potentially receptive gray matter of our brains. If you believe in God, this might be the voice you hear. Regardless, within this connection you have the ability to pull down wild information which you would otherwise have no way of knowing.”
  • 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!]

See more about the Galactic Center!

Pluto and Mars, the old planets of Scorpio, are the base and lead planets of this New Moon! The New Moon widely inconjuncts Pluto back in Capricorn! It is totally intriguing to Gemini. Moon and Sun don’t know whether to dodge and make a leap for it, or engage in what may seem to be someone else’s business…but they are all right there together. Honesty and transparency are called for. Gemini needs to know Pluto in Capricorn is often more businesslike and private about it. Don’t take it personally if Pluto isn’t the instantly chatty type. Yet Pluto may be quite glad to get the latest hot off the press news so he can adjust his circumstances accordingly! Just be respectful of each other.

Now that Pluto has debuted and taken a look at the new Aquarius landscape, he sees the huge job needed ahead. He’s even more serious. There are updates needed to get Capricorn more prepared to be the support sign, updates to be made in structures – actual buildings and communal living from apartments to tiny homes communal living. We are revamping urban regulations, making laws to accommodate what is to come, updating current standards to meet the ones we will soon need. New skills need to be put in place. It is a lot to do in such a short time, now through Jan 20, 2024. The important thing is to get them in progress. The things Pluto is doing are crucial for being the base planet who not only sets the new standards, but needs to encourage all to do their part to keep from lagging behind. He needs to not only support and educate individuals but run the projects as well. It’s an immense task.

Mars in Leo is a perfect lead planet! He is a champion, a winner out ahead of the others! Spiritually he has a fearless quality, inspiring, the first! He is in a very different position than Pluto. With Venus at his flanks he is admired, has Grace, and she cheers him on! She has been chatting away with Mercury in one of his own signs, Gemini. Mars will impress them with his Leo prowess and lead them in amazing leaps forward! The news is spreading, and other followers are joining. Venus might be hoping for romance and maybe a ring! She is in Leo too and is a dramatic beauty of her own kind, is a show of her own! Mars is proud to be seen with her. They both have generous Hearts! However, if they get too full of themselves, selfish, it may be a too good to be true situation. Be happy and take the time to get to know each other. No eloping or signing marriage contracts quite yet.

Technically our chart is defined as a Bowl, planets all on one side of the chart, but it is missing two signs, Aquarius and Cancer. There is the main sign by sign group from Pisces to Gemini. Pluto Capricorn and Venus/Mars Leo, base an lead planets, are each a sign from the main group. That space allows a little breather between them and the main group. Maybe they need that bit of distancing to keep clear to do their duties cleanly.

Wise Saturn, helps bridge the first gap because he is the planet of Capricorn, the sign Pluto is in. The New Moon pulls the Pluto energy to the fore because they are are highly aware of him, about to aspect him more closely by degrees! Saturn in Pisces has been harnessing the dreams of many! He is immanently sextiling Jupiter in sensible Taurus in two days, JUNE 19! This is significantly helpful to Pluto in Capricorn, the sign of Saturn! Pisces calls for meaningful compassion, compassion on a grand scale, for the common dreams of the time. Jupiter in Taurus calls for basic organic justice in behalf of human rights for all, and for Saturn and Capricorn to make the laws to back it all up. Hopefully Mercury and this New Moon in Gemini will have a lot to say to bring this to pass. See more about Jupiter sextile Saturn

At the personal level, it’s a work and play combination. Balancing your life with less stress. It’s time to liven our plans for the future and make them more sweet to our Souls. Playing and getting paid for it! Education for enduring causes, steady success, updating to new skills will make a big difference. Alliances between dreamers and doers will serve us well. Some ideas will never be defined, even escape us, while others will be self defining, indisputable, inevitable. Join others going your way. The whole is greater than the sum of the parts.

Mercury in his own sign, in the New Moon sign, in positive sextile Venus/Mars, bridges the gap with them! Mercury is naturally logical, so he helps those spicy co-leads be clean and clear. He directs them somewhat from behind them since he has the latest info. The three have a good connection full of juicy ideas of opportunity. These will be passed along to the New Moon, then in turn back to Pluto, their power guide at the rear. Pluto sniffs and snorts, clears any debris, places the new ideas carefully for building and updating the foundation premises.

Chiron and Uranus are still tracking each other in their famous semisextile again! Please see more about this remarkable 13 year aspect. Over the years, Uranus has become more Shamanic in his humanitarian concerns. Chiron is more on the cutting edge, especially now that he is in Aries! He has become more electric and is acquiring a more humanistic range of healing and teaching. He is networking his teaching far and wide.

Neptune in Pisces sextiles Pluto in Capricorn. Jamie Partridge refers to this as an inter-generational planetary aspect lasting from 1950 to 2032. Both planets have changed signs multiple times in that period. Pluto’s recent step into Aquarius March 23 is important because it will last through 2044 and has significant history – American and French Revolutions and the Industrial Revolution in England. See more! Right now, Neptune and Pluto are sextile less than 3° apart. Pluto is retrograde back into Capricorn, a compatible sign with Pisces, where they have been working together for many years. Neptune in his own sign, only every 168 years, calls for immense compassion for all beings, from brilliant to mentally disabled, unable to socialize very well, for those who are shockingly different from ourselves.

‘Always be on the lookout for the presence of wonder.’ ~ E.B. White

February 19/20 New Super Moon!
March 7 Virgo-Pisces Full Worm Moon!

Pisces New Super Moon!

Feb 18 Happy Pisces!
Sunday
 New Moon Pacific time Feb 19 at 1 Pisces 22, 11:06 PM!
Monday Eastern time Feb 20, Presidents’ Day, at 2:06 AM!

Consider our Unique Soul Purposes, use your Mind wisely, make special New Friendships!

Pisces 2023 New Moon Crescent Hawaiian Moon Goddess Mahina

Dark sky delight, the Hawaiian Moon Goddess Mahina

Feb 18 Happy Pisces! Feb 19/20 is the Pisces New Super Moon! The fresh lunar reset immediately gets right to the core of Pisces beliefs and visions! Though in the final sign of the zodiac, it starts the hi lite of the 4 sign sequence of Pluto into Aquarius – Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, Taurus. Pisces gives insight to Soul Purpose, a fusion of visions, mature understanding, empathy due to humbling failures, kind compassion. It’s under its auspice that Father Saturn, the Time Master, Master Builder, Ceremonial Wizard, Law Maker, calls us to order to take responsibility to make the Pisces Visions come into useful being. Life did likely originate in the Pisces realm, the Sea.

March 7 Saturn takes the helm in Pisces, the last time 29 years ago… only 55 mins after the Virgo-Pisces Full Moon! The New Moon has flowered to the Full Moon having then FIVE Planets in Pisces launching Saturn into his new sign, the last sign of the Zodiac! March 11 Jupiter conjuncts Chiron in Aries. March 16, Mars, the Aries planet, completes his entire retrograde Cycle in Gemini. He provides much needed up-to-date last minute information for Pluto’s good launch. Next is March 20, Sun into Aries, first sign of the Zodiac, Spring Equinox! The next day March 21 is the fiery inspiring Aries New Moon. It brings an Initiation, 2 days before the March 23 Pluto 246 year shift into Aquarius! The launch chart has FIVE planets in ARIES! That’s a LOT of planets in the sign of Initiation and a lot of new beginnings all in a row! A profound sign change is well launched!

Pluto cleans up and heals. Aquarius is here to be free to make change. Pisces gives empathy as we all go through this together, and it won’t always be easy as we go through the sign changes. Saturn is at the ship’s helm steering us through any rough seas. Jupiter in Aries now, with Chiron, will offer more quick healing, up-to-date education, a sense of confidence, and cheerfully wants super change ASAP! Get aboard and get going! Jupiter will go into Taurus mid May stabilizing and anchoring gains we make.

This Bundle Chart has all six signs, base planet Pluto – lead planet Aries, Four planets in Pisces- Venus goes into Aries 11:56 Pacific, four mins before midnight. East of Pacific she goes into Aries on the 20th. At that point there will be three planets in Aries, including Jupiter coming to his conjunction with Chiron March 11. No planets are retrograde and won’t be until May 1, Beltane!

Bundle Charts are known for focus, linkage among themselves. This one has two numeric sets. The first set links last and first degrees in a Midpoint formation.

Pluto at 29, connects with Saturn in his last degrees of Aquarius is at 28 now, Venus is also at 29 (called the Anaretic degree). They are all in ending degrees, feeling maturity, anchoring their accomplishments providing a secure platform for their next signs. There is a finality, sad to leave but ready too. Moon and Sun have already moved into Pisces. Venus breaks out, is moving into Aries in 52 minutes. The planets are in the sequence of Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces. Saturn in AQ with the New Moon are at the midpoint of this five planets semisextile set.

Pluto still in Capricorn, makes sure no one is left behind. He heals them at deep levels, at the root, rather than the symptoms. He wants healing of the cause so the problem won’t come back to haunt them. He needs a solid troop to help him in his new Aquarian work. Capricorn includes fundamentals like Father responsibilities, law and order, business and professional care, to build and maintain climate secure shelter. If Pluto is going to do well in his fight for Humanity, he needs a strong team.

Venus has just blessed Pluto. They are sextile, defining the start and end of the sequence. A sextile is an aspect of opportunity, so short as this sequence is, it is potent! Venus has graced Pluto with her admiration, love, shared her inspiration to make sure things have the attraction of beauty and essential value. She reminds Capricorn it’s not just what’s practical, but what is dear to our hearts. Being concise is good; giving a smile is the frosting. Pluto shared a few secrets, did some healing for her, maybe gave her a loan. He assured her that her dreams are meaningful and to carry them forward. She gave her compassion with gratitude. Quick to see values, she gave him some financial ideas as well. Moving into Aries, she may bring him some new business. It was worth the time.

Venus also recently consulted with Neptune in Pisces, his own sign. She has blessed him too. She has her wants, desires, so dearly knows the difference between dreams and addictions. Both their addictions are sugar based, a need for sweetness, loving kindness. Their connection can be poignant, mixed with sad reminders and memories of successes beyond measure, of the Soul’s boundless good steps. Neptune can be the addict or helpless victim, but he can also be the empathic savior as well, working behind the scenes for the cause. One way or another he can always use the help! Sometimes he just needs stabilizing, an outside point of view, or a square meal and reassurance he is on the right path! A touch of the Venus beauty blessing can save him, remind him of the love we are all here for.

Neptune has a leading quality of his own… As the planet of the last sign of the Zodiac, in his own sign Pisces, he is the summary of all the signs. Neptune is like an unfathomable San Francisco bay fog, the magical Dreamtime. Neptune wanders with no particular reason, or so it seems. Intuitive guidance can be even more efficient. It doesn’t go by the ‘rules,’ but by instinct. Neptune goes straight, ignores distractions when on a mission, and arrives ahead of the others who had to follow the map. If there are ‘distractions,’ often something worthy and meaningful happens as a result! For now, if the group gets jammed up somehow, Saturn throws in an Aquarian thunderbolt to keep their attention and break up the old pattern! He knows just how to do that. Be trustful and at Peace. It’s all good…

Saturn is IN Aquarius now, paving the way, securing a network, science/research facilities, banking. Moon and Sun have just consulted with him, understand his creative needs to open the doors for safe passage into Pisces, secure the gateway for Pluto into Aquarius. They, in Pisces, have our very Soul in mind. They take Saturn’s ideas forward into the dreamtime for intuitive review, show him shortcuts, bless his efforts with almost miraculous solutions to what looked impossible!

Pisces is mutational, flows without following or leading! It is the calm of a balmy sea, the breezes of salt air, the utter black darkness of a star studded night far from shore. From its realms are the mysteries of monsters, the fishermen. The merging of fresh land waters with sea waves become fertilizer for seaweeds, fish, other creatures. Earthquakes turn the ocean depths like gardeners amending soil. There is a redistribution of that underwater soil. Tsunamis come ashore sweeping it clean. Nothing holds the sea. Nothing holds our minds. Meditation takes us places we didn’t know exist. Spirit, Soul, are invisible and invincible.

Moon assures us. In Pisces she is the Minstrel Mother who sings the lullabies. She has quite a following. She nurtures us with stories of supreme heroism, how sacrifices were made and rewarded. She brings us soups of many flavors, the bowl warming our hands or cold and cooling summer heat. We understand how others live as we travel the seaports of the world.

Sun brings her his courage, lights her charming way. He has heart she admires as he helps others, no matter who they are or what they want, he does his best. People come to him. He can be gentle or make movies that bring Poseidon’s thunder and lightning if he feels they have been wronged.

These three, Saturn, Moon and Sun, the midpoint planets, link equally, deliver messages, scan and mediate, make suggestions, hear both sides. The last planet is Venus at 29 Pisces! She wants everything right now before she makes that change into Aries. She wants to take the best advantage of what she brings to the new digs! The more she brings, the more that can be done! She has scoured everything with her Pisces intuition, absorbed, morphed and merged to understand completely, found the pearls! She is looking for deeper values, beauty that shines from its own light, the ability to attract the funding needed to make the dreams come true!

The second numeric set involves our lead planet Mars at 15° Gemini! Mars is a leadership planet in the chart’s lead position, a perfect spot for him! He is blowing Gabriel’s horn letting people know he is coming. He arrives in the plaza and people are crowding around to hear his news! He is asking questions to find out what is new for them so he can take back great new information to his people! In the same 15 ° as Uranus in Taurus, Mars especially wants information on the latest body remedies, food production, groups making successful changes in planetary thinking. He’s revving the engine to get things off to a speedy start!

Mars sextiled Chiron at 13 Aries and picked up some new teaching and presentation tips. Uranus and Aries are both super fast, and Mars is the Aries planet, so things have happened quickly over the past couple of weeks! With no planets retrograde, expect the pace to continue, especially with Venus going into Aries too!  Chiron wants to heal our brains, mind, for us to work at top speed, be at our best, #1! Mars in Gemini has acute attention, feels any interference, so may want to know what Chiron is doing. You don’t get to do that just because you can! Ok. So Chiron explains himself and Mars becomes alert to upgrades! Mars gives Chiron some further tips on how to work even faster. We are all going to be needing this new speed to keep up with Pluto in Aquarius.

Chiron is also within two degrees semisextile of Uranus, in Aries and Taurus, neighboring signs! This aspect has more significance than first thought. Uranus will not be making the semi sextile because he turns forward before they connect. But it is a reminder that calls our Soul. Previously they were connected 13 years! Chiron broadening his skills to encompass humanitarian purpose. Uranus becoming more shamanic in behalf of humanity. See more!

The base planet of this second midpoint set is Mercury at 12 Aquarius thinking at the speed of Light(ning) with sizzling intellect! He can be so independent he doesn’t know you exist, but that is much less true now in the days of the internet. No longer are we so randomly remote from each other. Friends of like spirit, gamers, curious researchers, revolutionary thinkers, are far more likely to connect. He too is wondering about humanitarian planetary networks! Change is not boring and putting our minds together, is far more possible, with resulting remarkably inventive solutions happening! These geniuses even surprise themselves!

Mercury sextiles Chiron too, making Chiron the sextile midpoint between Mercury trine Mars! Mercury’s electric energy makes Chiron’s hair stand up on end! Chiron in Aries already has new ideas off the scale. He would have never dreamed of this current volume! Rarely is Aries hard pressed to keep up. Fascinating! It’s quite similar with Mercury’s trine with Mars. Mercury’s super infusion makes Mars take off at speeds he has never anticipated. Mercury is so delighted, excited, he delivers more! If you have a unique problem, put it in front of them and let it roll! You won’t be the same afterwards!

These sextiles are important to Chiron’s important development before Pluto goes into Aquarius March 23. Quick healing will be necessary to get off to an initial good strong start. The Jupiter conjunct Chiron is the first outer planet combination of 2023, the aspect formed only 12 days before Pluto’s shift into Aquarius March 23! Since Chiron is a healer/shaman, in Aries he is innovative, introducing new processes to help Pluto and the people do this transition more smoothly. Jupiter will be teaching the new principles just as fast as he can! Going public, publishing, documenting progress, will be of great service. Jupiter will expand Chiron’s thinking exponentially. Chiron will help Jupiter keep his health to do the job, do the traveling needed to help all that need it. Jupiter will help us see new options and Chiron will help us put them to work, even develop them into businesses. New kinds of relationships will be brokered and new business partnerships formed. See more!

We have two air signs, AQ and Gemini, with fiery Chiron in Aries in between. It’s like they will have a mind meld with everyone talking at once and no one cares, in fact they understand each other!!! Innovation abounds! Some parts get delegated, while at  other times they are swept off their feet as they get called to action! What one doesn’t think of the other will because they are connected on a roll! Jupiter makes whatever it comes upon bigger, enhancing the windows of perception! Jupiter dances his way along, surfs the biggest waves, watches the grand story unfold! Jupiter is a big thinker, generally has a generous Spirit. He tells the biggest stories, could be yours, and knows how to do publicity! Time to get all this right out front for the world to see and think about, bring helpers into the fold, travel together in an impressive entourage! It is all a blend of independence and an astonishing collective undertaking that can’t be denied! Well, do your best own part when you can, LOL!

Mercury in AQ does indeed square Uranus, the planet of Aquarius! Yes there will be differences, some head butting. Wild freedom loving Uranus is in Taurus, oddly rather settled there, definitely can be persistent and not backing down. Mercury is an upstart compared with Uranus the renowned Mastermind! Yet being in Aquarius gives him some creds of his own. He is smart, quick, known to have the latest, and aw, you kinda gotta listen to him. Probably will have fascinating ear catching ideas and insights. So, they get together, perhaps a bit grudgingly at first.

There are matters of mind at every point of this four planet plus Jupiter 12 to 15° set. Mercury is mind – attention, communication and learning skills. Aquarius is genius; Aries is the head – instant re-action; Uranus of Aquarius is Higher Mind. Mars is the Aries planet in one of Mercury’s two signs, Gemini. Jupiter quests the greater meaning and purpose of it all. New Friendships will most certainly be a strong part of this. So much is being processed. Don’t be surprised to find yourself talking longer than you intended!

This Gemini, Aries, Aquarius, sequence is certainly inspiring! Gemini is the first air sign, Aquarius the last. We go from mind skills, communication connections of siblings to neighbors, to pure Aquarian genius, friends anywhere, the internet, to other worldly space connections! Aries is the fiery first consciousness of seed ideas, every moment a new moment, leadership that takes you to places you have never been before and can’t wait for, then next! Spirit is. Aries is the fulcrum sign. It can’t be only the Gemini facts, but they must have potential and be right for the sign sequence to liven. The Seeds, one by one, in turn, must lead to the exploration of higher consciousness of Aquarius, Humanity. We are all on this planet together. Spiritual respect is being called for. Collective Conscious is being built right in front of our eyes.

As Pluto is leaving Capricorn, the behind the scene anchor aspect is still the Neptune sextile Pluto. They are closely sextile, as they have been, off and on for many years and will be still for another 9 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 13 year 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. Chiron Semi-sextile Uranus

Since 1950 Neptune and Pluto have changed many signs together! Pluto is a shamanic healer, has to do with life, Kundalini, sex, lifelong relationships, cleansing and detoxing, big money, research, and death and resurrection. Pluto is not fainthearted. Danger is fascinating and comes in many forms. Dying to life is the game. The Great Mystery and revelation hold Pluto’s attention. Fathomless Neptune is his friend. As Pluto leaves Neptune behind, Neptune remains in his own sign Pisces. Neptune/Pisces are NOT linear like Pluto’s current sign Capricorn! 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!

Pluto, Fixed Star Algol and the Galactic Center!

Pluto 29 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’s spiritual side… 

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 Capricorn 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 29° 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. 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 immanent entry into Aquarius March 23 2023. For 21 years he will be called to apply his great strength in behalf of humanity.

Though leaving Capricorn soon, Pluto will still be in range trining Algol, just from a different sign, through Jan 2024! Capricorn is the keeper of tradition; Aquarius is a change maker futurist! Aquarius will add to the purposes of the trine. As an air sign, an evolutionist, new intriguing thinking will be introduced, new networks having greater scope will be formed. Not all the transitions will be smooth, each will need to get used to new ways of working together, but it will be exciting, even exhilarating!

Neptune at 24 Pisces sextiles Algol, squares 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! Neptune will be in connection with them through 2024! With Neptune’s sextile to Pluto through 2032, 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 246 year event! Now through 2044, 21 years, there will be significant world changes. Right now is the last time to be strengthening our Aquarian and Uranian people, those factors in our own charts!

Consider our Unique Soul Purposes, use your Mind wisely, make special New Friendships!

Virgo – Pisces Full Worm Moon!

Tuesday March 7, 4:40 AM Pacific at 16 Virgo 40

Saturn anchors 4 Planets Pisces, Virgo Moon ‘Handle,’ March 11-12 Jupiter conjunct Chiron charges ahead with 3 planets in Aries! Put your dreams into action, and tend them with all your heart! Do your own good part.

Virgo-Pisces Full Worm Moon 2023 SpaceFrog Designs

Background and where we stand now!

Feb 18 Happy Pisces! Feb 19/20 was the Pisces New Moon! That fresh lunar reset immediately got right to the core of Pisces beliefs and visions! Though in the final sign of the zodiac, it started the hi lite of the 4 sign sequence of Pluto into Aquarius – Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, Taurus. Pisces gives insight to Soul Purpose, a fusion of visions, mature understanding, empathy due to humbling failures, kind compassion. It’s under its auspice that Father Saturn enters Pisces. He is the Time Master, Master Builder, Ceremonial Wizard, Spiritual Law Maker, calls us to order to take responsibility to make the Pisces Visions come into useful being. Life itself did likely originate in the Pisces realm, the Sea.

TODAY March 7 Saturn takes the helm in Pisces; the last time was 29 years ago… It happens in only 55 mins after our Virgo-Pisces Full Moon! The New Moon has flowered to this Full Moon having FIVE Planets in Pisces launching Saturn into his new sign, the last sign of the Zodiac! March 11 Jupiter conjuncts Chiron in Aries. March 16, Mars, the Aries planet, completes his entire retrograde Cycle in Gemini. He provides much needed up-to-date last minute information for Pluto’s good launch. Next is March 20, Sun into Aries, first sign of the Zodiac, Spring Equinox! The next day March 21 is the fiery inspiring Aries New Moon, 2 days before the March 23 Pluto 246 year shift into Aquarius! That’s a LOT of new beginnings all in a row! A profound sign change is well launched!

Pluto cleans up and heals. Aquarius is here to be free to make change. Pisces gives empathy as we all go through this together, and it won’t always be easy as we go through the sign changes. Saturn is at the ship’s helm steering us through any rough seas. Jupiter in Aries now, with Chiron, will offer more quick healing, a sense of confidence, and cheerfully wants super change ASAP! Get a grip and get going! Jupiter will go into Taurus mid May stabilizing and anchoring gains we make.

This is the last Full Moon before Pluto into Aquarius. Read this Virgo-Pisces combination carefully for what you can do to facilitate a smooth transition. Virgo is the Queen Bee with well organized troops. Pisces knows she’s backing him all the way. Not only is the smooth operation helpful to Pluto, but very important to Saturn entering Pisces! It is the first lunar event of Saturn in Pisces! He wants his support to be at its best at this critical time. Pisces, the sign ahead of Aquarius keeps reminding AQ why we are making all the inventions, why we are making change! Pisces dreams are the inspiration that carry us on, the Soul that calls us.

All the outer planets are direct now and will be through May 1, Beltane! All the inner planets are direct, moving forward now too! NO planetary retrogrades right now! 

The Bucket Chart formation is represented by Mother Moon in Virgo, standing separately from the rest of the planets at the handle position! She presents their crafts, skills, services, and her legendary organization! Her intake from outside the chart is shared with the group enhancing their living skills, incomes, health. Virgo cares on a daily moment by moment level. She’s the nurse, nutritionist, quilt maker, handyman, landscaper, home keeper, bookkeeper, professional accountant the CEOs consult, shops for you, does services of all kinds. She’s a fantastic writer, makes documentaries and invaluable training manuals. She researches skillfully for what’s needed and best buys.

Opposite Sun, she’s his lucky charm! She takes his fluid ideas and grounds them. Finds a way to incorporate them seamlessly. She calculates what it would take to get them happening and gets to it. Pisces compliments her by sensing her talent, goodwill and puts her in charge. His admiration lights her heart.

Four Planet Full Moon T Square Mars, Mars square Neptune!

Moon squares Mars! Virgo is famous for being a bit picky and not suffering fools. Moon can go either way, nurturing no matter what or moody. Square Mars, Mars pushing and curious, can frustrate Virgo. She’s the Mistress of ‘Why?’ but when someone questions her delicate hard won well researched routines she is not always happy to take time to answer, especially when on a deadline. If there’s an overdose of Mars chat, she may ask him to get to the point. Moon can act like your Mother! Mars wants to rebel. But, be respectful and ask if this is a good time to interrupt. In spite of herself, she may be intrigued by Mars’ exuberance. As a good critic, she quickly picks the valuable ideas he has that save time and finds herself thanking him! Virgo can push Mars back and ask him to prove what he says. She may show him what going too fast may cost him at times. If he bumps his head, gets a cut, she may be the one to help! They can be good for each other.

Sun squares Mars in Gemini! Sun is offering Mars a tremendous wide angle view of Soul sights! Mars rules the head and Gemini the mind. He’s heady! Pisces is psychic. Much of what he offers is not logic, it just is. It may skip entire spaces of a sequence and land way ahead of its standard perception with absolutely no explanation. It can spring forth with no previous history or even expectation. At some point Mars just has to give up, surrender to this mode of being. But Gemini is a good translator! It’s kind of a mind over miracle dilemma. Pisces can be annoyed by Mars’ ‘louder’ style, words versus perception. Pisces can also be super understanding and subtly handle Mars fears of not being in control. Pisces is able to ‘analyze’ the nameless, out-of-body experiences. They will come to some terms, probably not immediately successful, may part knowing there are unknowns for now. Each will have questions…

Mars, the group’s Lead Planet, is frisky, clever on his feet with words of inspiration! He, speaks forthrightly, has the latest information, proves his worth again and again. He’s not going back! At 21°, he squares Neptune! As Mars rules the head, Neptune rules Pisces, the feet, and is in Pisces, his own sign. One is reaching for the sky while the other is grounding. Much as Mars is a mover and shaker, well ahead of Neptune by sign, he still feels Neptune’s reminders that it’s the Soul’s dream that counts. You may be first, but that’s not the whole thing at all. At times Neptune is mindless, has a hard time expressing the unimaginable in everyday words. Mars pushing him may not help. Walk away, give a time for things to settle. At times Neptune has confusion, whether overwhelmed, fearful, drugged, distracted. Mars may grab him by the scruff of the neck and march him to get some help or wake him up! Mars could get good and mad, then find himself having a fit of forgiveness, possibly making an apology. Oh, my. It is a challenge.

Venus in Aries, in Mars’ sign, sextile Mars, may bring him blessings and opportunities that help ease him through the T Square and his square to Neptune. She may love his style, encourage him to go for what he sees is needed. Together they will have momentum and some good luck. She may tell the others of his good work and as lead planet how much he does and how genuine he is in behalf of their work. He in turn admires her courage and Spirit, inspiring her to open a business of her own, maybe leading bike tours for women!

Pluto in his last days, last degree of Capricorn (called anaretic), is the base planet of the group, letting everyone know how important their mission is. He calculates how much time they have left for preparations for his shift into Aquarius, makes sure everyone is coming along well. He gives them templates for keeping his good works in Capricorn able to continue and be the foundation for times to come.

There are four planets in Pisces, a stellium. Mercury is the second. Mercury moves faster than Saturn, was in Pisces before Saturn, so they haven’t connected together. Mercury may be leaving a little trail of crumbs, but their scent might be pretty faint by now. But, there are little tracks; Saturn is adept following valences and trace forms in Pisces… There are certain infos, ideas, hints, logic that may be sensed…

Mercury in Pisces is an anachronism in a way. Mercury is logical but in no particular logic Pisces, not in its natural element. But Mercury does connect with Mother Moon, she being in Virgo, one of Mercury’s logical signs and Mars in Gemini, Mercury’s other logical sign! Mercury has more influence than first thought! He can translate some of Pisces’ seeming gibberish and everyone marvels! But after all, Mercury is the communications planet! There are many forms of communication and if anyone can do it, Mercury in Pisces can! We are finding out more about important Pisces beliefs, dreams and matters of the Soul.

We have a five planet semi-sextile neighboring signs midpoint sequence! Sun at 16 Pisces, the three Aries planets stellium – Jupiter, Chiron and Venus at 13/14 and 18, last Uranus at 15 Taurus! The midpoint Aries stellium has the March 11 Jupiter Chiron conjunction and Venus sextile Mars, the Aries planet! Midpoints are special combinations, passing information fluidly between them.

  • Sun is the light and in Pisces has spiritual tones, understanding, profound insights of the Heart. Light in deep pockets brings the dreams to the surface. Inspiration calls for action! Sun is the base planet of the group. He sextiles the lead planet of the group, Uranus They are of opposite signs, Sun of Leo, Uranus of Aquarius. Both can be dramatic, Sun in Pisces maybe even more so, a brilliance the like of which has never been seen before! But Uranus is often downright shocking! Who knows what will come of this combination?! Yet, sextiles offer opportunities, so maybe what comes to Light is just fine though an almighty surprise!Mother Moon has been keeping an eye on them, praying for decorum. She has trined, the most favorable connection of all, with Uranus in Taurus. She is intuitive and senses the potential of any disorder, so has already spoken with him and offered sensible alternatives that Taurus is pleased with, so likely the worst has been diverted! Whew, that was close! In fact, these two positive connections with Uranus have helped with the Full Moon T Square with Mars. People have stepped in to help, listened to Mars and translated back to Moon and Sun. A lot of ideas have flurried around, and will continue for a while to come.
  • Aries is the action Leader, generally fearless and unstoppable, for better or worse! The Innocent, the Fool is his card. He’s a wicked rights fighter, champion of the downtrodden, excels at emergency services! Jupiter is the teacher, publisher, traveler, storyteller. With fabulous Chiron, they work toward healing, successful marriage and business alliances. Venus in Aries and sextile Mars the Aries planet, is no pushover. She can be rough or have a ton of grace and sweet talk you to do her bidding either way, LOL! Independent Mars may be her match, however. After some fast chatting, a budding relationship may be in the offing! There are few she can really admire. One thing is for sure, she is a ball of energy, can have her own exercise program! She wants new now and the very best of it!
  • The Aries contingency however, may be finding Uranus in Taurus, no pushover either. His genius may be a bit untouchable. Uranus is the change maker, but also in Taurus the stabilizer, there has to be a good reason to make it. No matter how pretty Venus is, what fine teachers Jupiter and Chiron are, Uranus makes up his own mind in his own time. No matter that Taurus is one of Venus’ signs, she will have to have a good set of information and reasons why what she is requesting will be of long term value, before Uranus would be budged. If/when she sings the right song, and Jupiter and Chiron have sensible plans that map the farsighted steps, and his instinct likes it, it will be done in a flash.
  • The Aries group is at the Midpoint position. Midpoints act as fulcrums, translators, share and receive information equally to both sides. This midpoint sequence is in neighboring signs, so essentially they all know each other, frequently passing the baton from one to the other. Pisces gives Aries the vision. Aries puts in on the map! Taurus anchors its lasting good qualities.

The Moon’s North Node is always generally retrograde on a 19 year cycle. In Taurus, the sign of Earth herself and our bodies, climate matters, basic human rights to live well, are a primary focus at these times. Food and secure living conditions, clean water are in our attention. Moon’s North Node and Saturn in Pisces will sextile April 14, 2023. Both are considered to be rather fateful and karmic. They both involve historic points, past life matters, how they intend to modify their current Life Path to create a good future. North Node will retrograde into Aries July 17, 2023 Pacific time. At that time there will be a surge into the action of the new decisions!

As Pluto is leaving Capricorn, the behind the scene anchor aspect is still 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 2023.’ 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 13 year 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. Chiron Semi-sextile Uranus

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 and resurrection. 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!

Fixed Star Algol, Galactic Center/GC, and Pluto and Neptune!

Neptune 24 Pisces and Pluto, 29 Capricorn continue to channel 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. Pluto trine Algol

Though leaving Capricorn soon, Pluto will still be in range trining Algol, just from a different sign, through Jan 2024! Capricorn is the keeper of tradition; Aquarius is a change maker futurist! Aquarius will add to the purposes of the trine. As an air sign, an evolutionist, new intriguing thinking will be introduced, new networks having greater scope will be formed. Not all the transitions will be smooth, each will need to get used to new ways of working together, but it will be exciting, even exhilarating!

At the current time Pluto has moved slightly out of the 3 degree connection with Algol, but Neptune has not! Since Neptune and Pluto are still connected, the Algol energy still prevails among them.

The GC is the center of our Milky Way, a monumental power center encompassing huge knowledge. It comes to us across dimensions beyond our understanding, yet it exists and we have access. Capricorn is a sign of wisdom, so the transmission of the knowledge of the ages is readily received. 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!

Neptune is 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 246 year event! Now through 2044, 21 years, there will be significant world changes. Right now is the last time to be strengthening our Aquarian and Uranian people, those factors in our own charts!

Blessed Be in ’23! New Year Astrology Chart!

Happy 2023! Here is the AstroLogical chart of that #1 moment! We have SIX EARTH planets that will get things done!

By technical degrees, we have Bundle Chart starting 2023! It’s not a tight configuration, has planets in all six possible signs from Capricorn to Gemini! There is a 4 planet hard working Capricorn stellium including Pluto. Due to his retrograde, Pluto will be in Capricorn in New Year charts for one more year after this, then not for 248 more years later. Through 2044 it will be in Aquarius.

Pluto, still in Capricorn through March 23, has often been the base planet, but Sun, holding the Light, is base planet this time, joining Capricorn behind Pluto! He, Sun, Mercury Retrograde and Venus are making a 4 planet Capricorn stellium (grouping of planets in a sign)! That’s four ways of doing Capricorn!

  • Gentleman Capricorn, Father Sun, brings the Light at the dark time of year. He may be square Chiron, wondering if he’s doing the right thing, but trine with Taurus Mother Moon is a classic male/female harmony success aspect! He will do well as base planet, pushing everyone forward. He tells them how what we are doing is timely and each must do their special part. He has a good rep, is dedicated and trusted, gives the facts for better or worse. He shines the Light forward; there’s no going back.

    Mother Moon in Taurus trines Capricorn SUN, a classic male/female, masculine/feminine harmony aspect! It’s an Earth combo, loyal and dedicated. He lights her heart. She proceeds calmly step by sturdy step. She admires Sun’s buildings and put them to good use to shelter the tribe. She helps him and them rest at important intervals  – meditation, yoga, massage. She feeds them the best foods for the journey remembering each one’s special needs. She provides a deeply trusted feminine counterpoint much needed in such a venturous chart. The children feel safe, come to her and she archives their stories in her absorbing attention, with kindness. Her commonsense helps all with simple solutions. She reminds them how things may have been challenging, but we usually do ok. Hugs all around. She and her kind are key to our success.

    Sun in turn trines, lends his Light and Capricorn skills, to Uranus in Taurus! Uranus is here to change our planet, get networks fully involved in behalf of climate, cultural harmony. It’s a planetary task and he needs all the backing he can get. For now he is infiltrating a fine dust of realization through the ethers that call us to observe huge events that affect a lot of people. That can be the pandemic and the many weather disasters, political and cultural events that affect so many. Our great need for clean water. What seems like simple friendships now may become lifelong working together on the most important things of our lifetime. Sciences of both Capricorn and inventions of Uranus will be taken to the limits. Uranus is the Aquarian planet. With Pluto going into AQ, friendships and networks will be forever changed, involving a greater magnitude. Electricity, the internet and robotics will all be a part of it. See more Uranus in Taurus please…

    Sun squares Chiron in Aries! Sun is curious, but conservative in Capricorn, so too much enthusiasm on Chiron’s part may slow things down until he has Sun’s trust. Chiron can tell him how exercise keeps you alive and oxygen charges your brain, to make fresh starts! Capricorn doesn’t want to make a fool of himself, but Sun likes proper action well done. Chiron offers the latest health advice for office people to construction workers, tailored to their needs. Chiron is also helping with new medical protocols. Doing proper trialing may be an issue. Sun in Capricorn goes more by the book and tradition, but sees good sense when it’s explained. Chiron in Aries often uses challenges to get us moving! No cowards here, please, LOL! 

    Chiron’s info also does well for new businesses that have been vetted for chances of success. New business techniques will save money and get more done in less time. Relationships will tend to be more lively, formed more for mutual purpose, working together, rather than simple coexistence or sexual pleasures. Each will want to be inspired by the other and to learn together. These couples may have fewer children, but will deeply care about the children they do have and the children of the world. Education may take on more experiential and experimental qualities.

    If things go well with this encounter, Sun will recommend Chiron and put him in charge of the company’s new health department.  

  • Capricorn Mercury Retrograde is in a powerful position conjunct Pluto and Venus! He makes practical architectural revisions. He takes the word of the Pluto-Venus prosperity around town and there are great many new customers! Mercury Rx is sextile the mighty 22 Pisces Neptune, God of the Oceans, Spiritual Master. Their connection has been longer than usual because Mercury stationed at 24 Capricorn for 8 days! Neptune offers all kinds of insights, visionary perception, intuitive redemption, moment by moment intuition. Apply for careers that please your heart and Soul! Saturn, Capricorn’s planet, in Aquarius, stands midpoint between Mercury Rx and Neptune keeping them keen and real, keeping them all – Mercury, Pluto, Venus and Neptune, mindful of the long term importance of their work. Part of the glory of their work is that very fact!
  • Pluto keeps on cleaning, detoxing and healing. Pluto uses his charisma along with Venus beauty, at the same degree with Pluto, and together they successfully conclude engaging projects, attract solid buyers. Sales are good.
  • Venus is reassuring Pluto he is going to do well finishing Capricorn, excellent progress has been built and that he will do well in his new sign Aquarius. Venus chooses valuable productive systems and products to be made.

22 Degrees! Saturn 22 Aquarius is at the midpoint between Mercury Rx, about to be at 22 degrees Capricorn, and Neptune 22 Pisces. It’s an exact lineup, a three part channel to follow – Mercury Rx Capricorn, Saturn Aquarius, Neptune in own sign Pisces, the last three signs of the Zodiac holding wisdom! Rx Mercury’s changing ideas leads, grounding proven patterns, rattling old cages! Saturn frees us in Aquarius to make those changes. Neptune makes us believers and dreamers with the visions how to make it all come true!

Saturn rules Capricorn, Mercury is IN Capricorn. Neptune in his own sign Pisces, is NOT linear like Saturn, Capricorn or Mercury! They are sharp and clear; Neptune is like an unfathomable San Francisco bay fog. They are by the book, but Neptune wanders with no particular reason, or so it seems. Intuitive guidance can be even more efficient. It doesn’t go by the ‘rules,’ but by instinct. Neptune goes straight, ignores distractions when on a mission, and arrives ahead of the others who had to follow the map. If there are ‘distractions,’ often something worthy and meaningful happens as a result! If they get jammed up somehow, Saturn throws in an Aquarian thunderbolt to keep their attention and break up the old pattern! He knows just how to do that. Be trustful and at Peace. It’s all good…

The midpoint function is to connect equally with the others. The midpoint planet is the pivot point, hears both the others, translates key factors between them, influences both of them. Saturn holds a strong position, very efficient. Saturn lends professional wisdom to Mercury Retrograde. In Capricorn, Saturn’s sign, Mercury reads Saturn true and comprehends the entire message. There is mutual respect. Saturn knows Neptune. He knows Neptune can’t be harnessed, but can be guided to an extent. Neptune is empathic, so understands what and why Saturn is asking. If Saturn needs a tuneup, Neptune transfuses ideas and skills to Saturn. Saturn is well pleased and puts them to work. In genius sign Aquarius, Saturn is lightning quick to catch on and spread the information through his networks! Building the new cutting edge Aquarian systems is speeded up tenfold and then some! 

Capricorn is pleased with the progress, the steady pace, sensible useful daily inventions as well as keeping the future in mind. Together they are all stabilizing the Capricorn legacy Pluto is leaving. Pluto makes sure of that. This foundation will allow Pluto to be free to do his new work. See Pluto Aquarius

We start with Capricorn Mercury and Mars in a DOUBLE Retrograde! Mercury is reconsidering our commitments, career/retirement choices, parental roles, care of aging parents, our own age, location choices, deciding on timing.

Though retrograde, Feisty Mars is the lead New Year planet! Since retrograde, at times it may be a reluctant leader or lead us back somewhere to ultimately strengthen its position. It is in double sign Gemini, the twins, of two minds or multiple tracks. Gemini is Mercury’s first sign, so there is an understanding between our two Rx planets though Capricorn and Gemini aren’t generally easily compatible. Mars can easily do doubles though, and is having thoughts and actions simultaneously, trials and makes instant revisions! Rx Mercury sure doesn’t have to wait long for the next information he needs! He’s challenged to track fast enough to keep up! Rx Mars is looking at, making news. He has a record breaking set of ideas that are changing the scene faster than you can blink, and he’s not even out of breath! Mars is fiery spirited and Gemini is air, the thinking element! Quick mingling. He has a lot to think about, and his innovative strategies happen in midair. His athletic ability is uncanny! His prowess is reassuring! 

Being Rx, he keeps doing it until it’s perfectly executed! It’s a volatile combination that burns right through old rigid thoughts, onto new ground. There are breakthroughs and initiation! They are the first to get there! They will fight for rights! The air might get a little smoky! Capricorn Sun may shout ‘Be careful!’ And he might. Holding their breath at times, the group will be delighted to follow his courageous lead. He will let the world know they are coming and to be ready for them! What a powerful entourage!

For those of you interested in Fixed Star connections, there are several in this chart! The main one is that lead planet Rx Mars is conjunct Aldebaran! Aldebaran is in constellation Taurus, in sign Gemini! In general, it is said to have the ‘nature of Mars (violent death, ultimate ruin by folly or pride.) It gives honor, intelligence, eloquence, steadfastness, integrity, popularity, courage, ferocity, a tendency to sedition, a responsible position, public honors, and gain of power and wealth through others, but its benefits seldom prove lasting and there is also the danger of violence and sickness.’ Since Mars is a fast mover, ours in Gemini, and retrograde, I would expect especially quick shifts from better to worse, and worse to better! Hold steady as an observer, let things process, stay true to your own position. Time will tell. Sean Penn has Aldebaran conjunct his Mars! See more about Aldebaran, and other fixed stars at Jamie’s site Astrology King!

Jupiter stands alone in Aries, an inspirational leader, is offering and waiting, standing up for new ventures! March 11 he conjuncts Chiron in Aries doing quickie healings before the March Pluto into Aquarius shift. In May he will whisk into Taurus and square Pluto! Whew! That will be a challenge! See more Jupiter Aries   Jupiter Taurus!

As we make this super 246 year transition of Pluto into Aquarius March 23, we will need all the earthy grounding this chart will bring.

BLESSED BE IN ’23!

New Super Moon December 23!
Cancer-Capricorn Full Wolf Moon January 6!

.


Capricorn New Super Moon!

Friday Dec 23 New Moon at 1 Capricorn 33, 2:17 AM Pacific

This is the Christmas New Moon! Time to Gather, share love, support, wisdom and inspiration! 

Capricorn New Super Moon Dec 23 2022 Ancient Messages Natl Geographic by Aaron Huey

Capricorn traces the footsteps of our ancestors… “One treasure still inside Utah’s Bears Ears monument is Procession Panel, a nearly 23-foot-long rock carving, or petroglyph, on Comb Ridge. At least 1,000 years old, it depicts a ceremonial gathering of some 190 human like forms converging from four directions. A succession of prehistoric cultures occupied the mesas and canyons of southern Utah for more than 12,000 years.” Spectacular Photo by Aaron Huey! Thanks to National Geographic!

A Supermoon is a full moon or a new moon that nearly coincides with perigee—the closest that the Moon comes to the Earth in its elliptic orbit—resulting in a slightly larger-than-usual apparent size of the lunar disk as viewed from Earth. The technical name is a perigee syzygy (of the Earth–Moon–Sun system) or a full (or new) Moon around perigee. This time it will emphasize our profession, fatherhood, shelter, what we build in our lives, our age.

Our chart is in less than half of the circle, a Bowl Chart. Bowls are collectors, gatherers, holders. They have a lunar nature, making nests, having belongings and memories that accrue the wisdom of close experience. We look to Mother Moon in such a chart, snuggling with her Capricorn Sun. She comforts, he relaxes knowing she is there for him, no judgments. He in turn renews his vows with her. Whether spoken or not, he appreciates her insightful intelligence of children, tribe, community. When their Bowl is full, they share their joy and prosperity, spilling it out, letting it flow through their people. They are a beacon, an example that draws others to stay steady together even in hard times.

Dec 23’s New Moon holds importance for several reasons!

  1. It happens the day Chiron turns direct, forward, to soon be releasing new healing energy!
  2. It’s the first New Moon with Jupiter back in Aries, giving a starting tone to types of new learning.
  3. Between Solstice and Christmas, Dec 22 to 24, Dec 23’s New Moon, we have a FIVE planet Capricorn Stellium!Moon, Sun, Venus, Mercury, Pluto. That’s 5 special ways to do Capricorn!
  4. This is the Christmas New Moon! Gatherings to share love, support, wisdom and inspiration.
  5. Mercury’s retrograde station starts. He retrogrades Dec 29 starting the double retrograde with Mars, ongoing into the New Year until Jan 12 when Mars turns forward!
  6. As 2022’s last Lunar event it leaves us with a sense of responsibility toward future achievements!
  7. However, it is the second of the 1 degree New Moons that continue through February! They started in Sagittarius, go through Pisces. The March Moon starts at 0 Aries, the first degree of the Zodiac! The New Moons start each Sign!

Jupiter is now in Aries for good! Jupiter, planet of education, perspective and international travel, is offering boundless choices, calling on faith and trust to carry them onward. It’s one of those times when time seems speeded up! Many are not as concerned about going by the book as getting where you are going. There will be a lot of quick forgivenesses depending on the seriousness of what is involved, first time ‘offense,’ etc. There will be a lot of get along and get over it and don’t do that again. Just live, grow up, be a good human. Jupiter in Aries is quick to learn, gets how which percentages work best in the long term. In Aries he insists on new adventures, pushing aside antiquated thinking in favor of fresh solutions that bring exciting change for better living. Capricorn will want traditional ceremonies, but with Jupiter and Chiron, a marriage factor, both in Aries, don’t be surprised if they elope, if they marry at all!

Moon and Sun are separating a square with Jupiter, Moon this same morning, Sun on Solstice, the day after Jupiter’s reentry to Aries! Jupiter is pretty mighty, especially in Aries, so is surprised to meet immediate resistance! Sun in Capricorn is used to being respected, often thinks right is right and holds fast. He doesn’t like being rushed, and has a masterful component of his own and knows darn well might isn’t always right! On the other hand, their relationship isn’t exactly new, so may welcome the differences and figure out how to put them to work soonest, each contributing excellent points! Think it over, but don’t miss the opportunity!

By Saturday evening, Moon shall have crossed the rest of the Capricorn plants, Venus, Mercury and Pluto! She’s good with feminine Venus, both wanting work that produces valuable results, is good for women and children. With Mercury, Moon soaks up plenty of ideas on techniques, communications skills, is tapped in with more parts of the community than she knew existed! Pluto has excellent references and financial talents, has in depth healing skills both medical and psychological, he helps with retirement and wills.

Sun catches up with Mercury retrograde Jan 7. Some ideas will just stand out, sparkle and shine, but remember, it is inspiration that leads to further steps that must be taken! Sun is with Pluto the 19th. For some that will be a significant ending, for others a powerful, possibly a financially super successful day! Take a deep look. Sun lights up the deep well, maybe even the Kundalini! Venus speeds on ahead and she connects with Sun several signs away Aug 13 while Venus is retrograde.

The 10, 11, 12, 15, 16° connections! Mars in Gemini is retrograde and he already told them before. Well, LOL, that isn’t the reason anyone ever made a change! They are on their own Soul time and it takes the time it takes. Mars is the fire planet of Aries. If you are planning some work projects, they might go quite quickly, be innovative, up on the latest techniques! Mars in Gemini is good with his hands, learns quickly. 10° Gemini Mars Retro is sextile Aries Chiron at 11! There is going to be some fast healing, lots of vaccinations news. The word, sales and news, is going around and there is a lot of business, new varieties and startups. With Jupiter also in Aries now, there will be a LOT of independence!

16° Capricorn Venus has just trined Uranus at 15 Taurus with the North Node at 12. She has reassured them they are doing well. She told them her long term hopes and offered some points to make their work more attractive and to emphasize how valuable it is in today’s world of climate, health and political change. She reminded them how we can do better together and to keep networking.

Mercury, Saturn and Neptune are at 21 and 22°! This is the first set, while Mercury is Direct/moving forward – barely moving in this case because Mercury is slowing to Retrograde the 29th! 2023’s New Year chart has this same set of three but Mercury is Retrograde then, making the same sextile with Neptune! From the New Moon to New Year, Mercury and Neptune will be closely sextile in less than 3.5° of each other! See the New Year Chart! (Will add link when it is published!)

Mercury, Saturn and Neptune make a three point channel lined up in the last three signs of the Zodiac, Cap, AQ and Pisces, finishing current business! As the last signs, they hold innate wisdom. Mercury brings realistic perceptions, practical applications. Saturn brings respect and the honor of his work and in Aquarius, collective consciousness. Neptune is in his own sign Pisces, is the old Master of the Sea, the Spirit, our divine Soul. We aspire to all these things.

Capricorn Mercury sextiles Neptune, one logical, the other psychic. Yet Capricorn, with his outstanding realism is a psychic in his own right. No mincing about, straight to the point, tell it like it is. Period. Put all this together and we have a super perceptive Mercury, receptive to other worldly Neptune’s insights of the ages, both ancient and future. Capricorn is the sign of time and the ages, so is quite tuned to this access. Mercury can translate some of Neptune’s messages clearly for others to receive the information too. Neptune sees some of Mercury’s skepticism, rough edges, and softens that so Mercury can receive even more. Clarity and empathy go hand in hand.

In the Double Retrograde I say ‘Mercury sextiles Neptune in Pisces…  Mercury may be super logical in Capricorn, a go by the book, is a 4X4 strong sign, but Capricorn always wants to do the best and be understood appreciatively. Neptune knows who he is and sees Mercury’s dreams. Neptune knows how to be with Mercury even though Mercury doesn’t trust Neptune at first. Neptune is truly unpredictable, but Mercury has a monkey mind no matter what sign he is in, and is intrigued in spite of himself! Neptune is the dreamer and has spontaneous ideas out of nowhere! They can be genius insights that prove their value more than we would have believed! Capricorn is quick to see how to use them, convert them, put them into play in a good way. Pisces is delighted! Mercury is not only adaptable, but spreads the word and they are all in business! Pisces prefers they will help people or the planet in some special way. The money doesn’t matter so much to Pisces, generally, but it certainly can fund his causes! Their work together may be artistic in some way – could be music and concerts! Videos and films of fairy tales with depth, delight and meaning, as fun as Harry Potter!’ See more in the Double Retrograde!

As humans, sometimes Mercury is more smart than loving, wants to be right. Capricorn can rule with an iron fist, harsh, and Pisces can be sadly addicted and out of control. Saturn is well placed at midpoint between Mercury and Neptune. Even if his demeanor is bossy, sometimes that is needed to get us to even try. He wants Mercury to balance that divine intelligence with kindness. He wants Pisces to get help if he can’t do it alone. No shame. For himself, he glimpses the effects when he is harsh and learns when it is needed or not. He becomes less rigid in his expectations. We all help each other.

The midpoint function is to connect equally with the others. The midpoint planet is the pivot point, hears both the others, translates key factors between them, influences both of them. Saturn holds a strong position, very efficient. Saturn lends professional wisdom to Mercury. In Capricorn, Saturn’s sign, Mercury reads Saturn true and comprehends the guidance. There is mutual respect. Saturn knows Neptune. He knows Neptune can’t be harnessed, but can be guided to an extent. Neptune is empathic, so understands what and why Saturn is asking. If Saturn needs a tuneup, Neptune transfuses ideas and skills to Saturn. Saturn is well pleased and puts them to work. In genius sign Aquarius, Saturn is lightning quick to catch on and spread the information through his networks! Building the new cutting edge Aquarian systems is speeded up tenfold and then some!

Neptune has a leading quality of his own… As the planet of the last sign of the Zodiac, in his own sign Pisces, he is the summary of all the signs. He is NOT linear like Saturn, Capricorn! Neptune is like an unfathomable San Francisco bay fog. Saturn may be by the book, but Neptune wanders with no particular reason, or so it seems. Intuitive guidance can be even more efficient. It doesn’t go by the ‘rules,’ but by instinct. Neptune goes straight, ignores distractions when on a mission, and arrives ahead of the others who had to follow the map. If there are ‘distractions,’ often something worthy and meaningful happens as a result! If the group gets jammed up somehow, Saturn throws in an Aquarian thunderbolt to keep their attention and break up the old pattern! He knows just how to do that. Be trustful and at Peace. It’s all good…

The last part of this configuration, the behind the scene 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 13 year 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. Chiron Semi-sextile Uranus

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!

Pluto, Fixed Star Algol and the Galactic Center!

Pluto 27 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 27° 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 were formed 5 times: on Spring Equinox Mar 20, & June 5, 2021, and in 2022 Jan 17, 2022, Aug 29, Nov 16. The effect of this last exact trine is still with us since these are all slow moving factors. 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.

Though leaving Capricorn March 23, 2023, soon, Pluto will still be in range trining Algol, just from a different sign, through Jan 2024! Capricorn is the keeper of tradition; Aquarius is a change maker futurist! Aquarius will add to the purposes of the trine. As an air sign, an evolutionist, new intriguing thinking will be introduced, new networks having greater scope will be formed. Not all the transitions will be smooth, each will need to get used to new ways of working together, but it will be exciting, even exhilarating!

Neptune at 22 Pisces sextiles Algol, squares 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! Neptune will be in connection with them through 2024! With Neptune’s sextile to Pluto through 2032, 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.

Capricorn, the last Earth Sign, is infinitely practical. Instinctively he is gearing up for the coming changes. There have been a lot of major worldwide shifts, important indicators, in the last 3 years. 

This is the Christmas New Moon! Time to Gather, share love, support, wisdom and inspiration. Blessed be!

Cancer-Capricorn Full Wolf Moon!

Friday Jan 6, 3:08 PM Pacific at 16 Cancer 22

2023’s First Lunar Event! Traditional Cancer/Capricorn are strongly connecting us to the world at large. Do your good part.

Cancer-Capricorn Full Wolf Moon 2023 Snowy Forest Mountain Road!

What Winter Sweet Song will you sing on your way? Where is the Full Wolf Moon leading you in 2023?

Capricorn Mercury is double retrograde with Gemini Mars
 until Jan 9, when Mars turns forward. For now he is in ‘station,’ seeming to stand still. He’s focusing, anchoring, resting. Mercury continues with his retrograde until Jan 18. Both have been going back, going ‘home,’ looking inward. Mercury is what you think, how you pay attention. Mars is what you do, though at this time, being in Gemini, one of Mercury’s two thinking signs, he is thinking and acting simultaneously! His prompt and affirmative action inspires Mercury, who in careful Capricorn, doesn’t always make an immediate leap. However, those amazing mountain goats are impressive when they do, and have incredible stamina!  Mars Double Rx with Mercury!

We have yet another Bowl Chart bordered by the Full Moon axis at 16°! That 16° is important because this is the 3rd Full Moon at 16 and they will continue at 16 through April! That’s 7 months at 16, Aries/Libra to Libra/Aries!!! Bowl charts are a phenomena all their own! They collect, gather, spill, leak, fill and pour, are emptied and rain may fall in it. It serves food, shares bounty. Again, it is a reverse sign combination. Moon in the earlier sign leads; Sun in the later sign is the base planet.

Mama Moon is the lead planet, strong in her own sign Cancer! She is cooking, grows the garden, bandages the kid’s knees, has super instincts, keeps things comfy and money in the bank. She carries her place in the community, diligently studies, documents and keeps records and memories, loves antiques and genealogy. She listens to our woes and successes, gives charming advice that makes us be better people. We couldn’t do it without her.

Sun and that Mercury Retrograde are her opposites. Yoohoo…. She’s at the other end of the table this time. She has her feelings on her own. Capricorn Sun is noted for being hard working and he’s discussing the project with Mercury. Mercury has been changing his mind, so Sun is a little concerned and distracted, hoping things work out. He still knows Moon gives good advice, so checks in with her time to time. Mercury is all logical and in Capricorn by the book, but Sun is himself, in spite of the books, and Moon feels the trends of the times, the mood of the people. They will put it all together soon. Mercury goes forward soon.

They have been both annoyed an intrigued by their recent squares with Chiron in Aries. He is a bit abrupt these days, but feels there is no time to lose. He doesn’t want them to miss the boat! He has new ideas, the latest, and Capricorn and Cancer tend to be traditional. But Capricorn understands the timeliness of it all and is inclined to trial some of the suggestions! In spite of the challenges, Chiron gave them good advice about relationships and business. He is in Aries, so wants to see the best soonest. He is considered an old Shaman, so he’s intuitively adept at avoiding wounds, teaches self healing. And he’s quick about it. No nonsense or romanticism. The whole Bowl is glad to have his services.

They are still, by one degree, in a favorable trine/sextile with Taurus North Node and Uranus! Uranus is ahead of his time, but more smooth and patient in common sense Taurus. Uranus is being able to show the value of the change, demonstrate it, and set up and start the new processes rolling. There will be many people engaged, and more coming to help!

Sun has an investment in the new work and as the base planet, he leads from behind, telling people his responsibility and lighting the way, giving inspiration with his expectations. He is a straight shooter and people trust that because he has succeeded before, has a certain voice of authority! If there is a mistake or an adjustment to be made, they are on it! Mercury is right there with the references, data and details. He is sending the letters, getting the permits, getting consultants, keeping the team and press up to date! The North Node is a bit fated, and it’s the time!

They also are soon to make a trine/sextile with Neptune in his own sign Pisces! Moon, also in water, is loving to commune with her old friend and spiritual guide. Neptune loves her pure feminine energy, that she loves unconditionally. Few do. They sense the people, the planetary trends. They can make music and art together. She has memories that track the matriarch, that even Neptune has forgotten. They wish for the children of the world to carry us forward into new consensus past old sufferings.  

Sun and Mercury are impressed by Neptune’s remarkable insights. They see the opportunities in Neptune’s dreams and want so much to build them. Neptune shows them possibilities they never expected. Neptune is so happy they have come his way and are making his dreams come true! These close connections lead to a spiritual rapport, a mutual empathy that gives them a glow others can see. It’s grace.

You can see how connected the Full Moon is within the chart. Moon and Sun will have great influence and the members of the Bowl will feed them well, keep the whole family humming! Moon and Sun will be extending the Bowl’s wishes and offerings to others outside the Bowl, and others will be supplying them with their needs!

Fiery Jupiter is hotter in that new fire light of Aries! It is especially time for fresh starts, taking a chance, for heroes and heroines! Jupiter loves physical action, games, races. Philosophizing is entertaining up to a point, but now in Aries, running, riding and racing, Jupiter wants to move! Storytelling is on the fly! Challenges are tasty! Going to new places puts speed in your shoes! When are the first tickets and tours available? Even new studies hold fascination, especially when you can learn on prem with the expert leaders! Championing great causes, making a profound difference is perfect! Shoot forward with Jupiter in Aries!

Venus has been admiring Jupiter taking ‘flight!’ She is in Aquarius, the sign of flight, and loves when the multitudes play their part making change! She has many friends that carry the word to others and collective happenings emerge! She’s close on her way to trine Mars, the Aries planet. He may be retrograde, but in Gemini, he’s dynamite with communications! He’s sassy, clever, wakes people up to new possibilities and they want to go with him right now! Venus has valuable information for him that will please his spirited Soul! Could be party time!

Saturn, at 23 Aquarius, is strongly maintaining Aquarius, building powerful networks for the future. He is dissolving outgrown friendships that we may move on with more time to do things in more purposeful relationships. New friendships are coming our way and life is more fascinating as we grow with the times! New extraordinary tools are coming with them allowing a keen flow of living. We are honing in on meaningful work. Do your good best!

Fixed Star Algol, Galactic Center/GC, and Pluto and Neptune!

Neptune 22 Pisces and Pluto, 27 Capricorn continue to channel 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 were formed 5 times: on Spring Equinox Mar 20, & June 5, 2021, and in 2022 Jan 17, 2022, Aug 29, Nov 16. The effect of this last exact trine is still with us since these are all slow moving factors.  Pluto trine Algol

The GC is the center of our Milky Way, a monumental power center encompassing huge knowledge. It comes to us across dimensions beyond our understanding, yet it exists and we have access. Capricorn is a sign of wisdom, so the transmission of the knowledge of the ages is readily received. 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!

Neptune is 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!

Cancer and Capricorn, more traditional, are strongly connecting us to the world at large. Do your own good part.
