Libra! Seven Political Heroes!
Longest-Married Presidential Couple Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter Celebrate Historic 76th Anniversary July 7, 2022!
Many Librans are super champions at important negotiations of all kinds! Especially precious is their ability to navigate personal relationships. Some are young and ahead of their time, testing their wings. Some lived with us long ago and set the course for our work today. Many are working at making history right now! Click on their name to see their astro chart!
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, 32, Oct 13, Mercury, Mars and Sun in Libra.
American politician and activist who became the U.S. Representative for New York’s 14th congressional district in 2019. She is a member of the Democratic party and she is widely known as AOC. She became the youngest woman to ever serve in the U.S. Congress at the age of 29.
With midterm elections coming up, we’ll see how she does.
Mahatma Gandhi, died 1948, born Oct 2. Double Libra, Sun and Ascendant.
Indian Freedom Fighter who Employed Non-violent Resistance & Known as ‘Father of the Nation’
An Indian (India) lawyer and anti-colonial nationalist, Mahatma Gandhi was a major figure in India’s fight for independence from British rule. He is renowned for his employment of non-violent resistance and civil disobedience methods. Despite his popularity, he had numerous detractors as well and was assassinated in 1948. He is widely considered the Father of the Nation in India.
Margaret Thatcher, died 2013, born Oct 13. Mars, Sun and Mercury in Libra, like Ocasio-Cortez, and born the same day.
United Kingdom’s first female Prime Minister and also the longest serving Prime Minister in the 20th century, Margaret Thatcher served three consecutive terms in the office from 1979 till 1990. Her political views and leadership approach, known as Thatcherism, got her the nickname of Iron Lady. Though controversial, she prominently ranks high in the list of the best British Prime Ministers.
Eleanor Roosevelt, died 1962, born Oct 11. Mercury, Sun in Libra.
Eleanor Roosevelt was an American political figure, diplomat, and activist. She served as the first lady of the United States from 1933 to 1945, during her husband President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s four terms in office, making her the longest-serving first lady of the United States.
She gave speeches on the radio, wrote a daily column for newspapers and articles for magazines, appeared in film shorts and newsreels, held weekly press conferences expressly for female reporters. During the Great Depression ER set out to learn about the plight of the nation’s poor, the New Deal the result. As White House hostess she gradually recognized that her social role “had real meaning and significance.” Because of Eleanor Roosevelt, the role of first lady took on a greater significance and a greater visibility in the minds of the American people than ever before. See much more! and more!
Jimmy Carter, pictured above with wife Rosalynn, is now 97, Oct 1. Double Libra, Sun and Ascendant, as was Gandhi.
39th President of the United States (1977 -1981) Former President Carter is one of the rare Presidents whose legacy continues even after leaving office. He is known as a champion of human rights and a mediator of peace efforts across the world. His humanitarian works earned him the prestigious Nobel Peace Prize in 2002. Many of us have admired his and his wife’s continued in person work with Habitat for Humanity in their elder years.
Wife Rosalynn is a romantic Leo with an endearing and enduring Taurus Moon. She loves her man and is proud of him!
Vladimir Putin 69, Oct 7. Sun, Saturn, Neptune and Mercury in Libra plus Jupiter in the 7th house, the Libra house!
The current President of Russia, Vladimir Putin is a popular politician, with the highest approval rating of any leader in the world as of July 2020. As a high-level politician who has the support of his citizens, he is a powerful figure in world politics. He has been accused by human rights organizations of persecuting political critics and activists.
Gavin Newsom 54, Oct 10. Sun Libra.
Newsom became the Lieutenant Governor of California in 2011 after serving as the 42nd Mayor of San Francisco from 2004 to 2011. In January 2019, he became the 40th Governor of California. His popular Care Not Cash program, helps move homeless people into city-assisted care.
He holds fascination as an upcoming Presidential candidate.
Being successfully politically takes being trusted, innate optimism, having a vision, being inspirational. It takes holding integrity, the strength to stand for your choices, to face public criticism, yet being able to make timely change due to current needs. Keen alliances help us to stay with and weather the storms. It takes intelligence tempered with empathy and compassion. Sometimes it takes financial prowess. Libras are pros at renegotiating and rewiring tired prospects under new conditions! When reputation, charisma and opinion aren’t enough, it is wise to have science advisors to back you up. Choosing your cabinet may be as important as the election itself to maintain your standing, get things done. Nothing ever happens alone. From your neighborhood to the world, community consciousness plays a strong role for perspective, cultural awareness, social justice. It’s a collaboration of you leading us to new times, along with your truly ‘representing’ the People when their needs outweigh your personal wishful thinking.
Things are changing rapidly with Jupiter in speedy Aries and will be profoundly more so, and more deeply, when Pluto enters r/evolutionary Aquarius March 23, 2023! Ask questions. Know your candidates. Vote, and vote wisely for the long term.
All you Libras are leaders of your own unique group. Use Libra ‘heroes’ of your choice as models for your own connections, the ones you make to others, the ones you allow to be made to you. Choose your personal cabinet wisely. Be present and caring, noting on balance what needs priority.
Libra is the sign of Beauty in the making. The right partners make it so.

Libra Overview 2022 to September 23, 2023!
The President of Earthjustice, the nation’s largest environmental law organization, is Abigail “Abbie” Dillen. She has litigated many precedent-setting cases that have held polluters accountable and cleared the way for clean energy nationally. Earthjustice has 180+ full-time lawyers that rank among the nation’s foremost legal strategists for the environment ~ because the earth needs a good lawyer.
Every minute of your day is precious. Do what you love and do something that counts! If you are a Libra, your choice might be the law, lawyering!
The sign lucky Jupiter is in, is the sign that succeeds and prospers. He is there for about a year each – pay attention to retrogrades that change signs! As Jupiter in Aquarius was super lucky for Aquarians, it is out of this world for Pisceans! Jupiter cheers them up, expands their already magical dimensions, gives them further faith and awareness, heals their spirits from addictions and fears. Major tours are possible and successful impossible dreams come true! It’s time to push the river a bit while the Gateway is open! Now it is in fast and first sign Aries until it returns to review Pisces Oct 27.
Jupiter in Aries is opposite Libra. Aries and Libra both want action, but Aries by instinct operates immediately and independently. For example, as a first responder, anytime new on a scene of life, instant decisions may be called for! Libra likes to consult with several trusted people, weigh what’s important in several situations, blend, collaborate! Clearly that takes more time. Sometimes they can’t make a decision in a timely fashion and the window closes. Sometimes Aries flat makes a hasty mistake. But he gives it a try, one thing leads to another. He gets things rolling, most times things can be mended quickly! Libra comes up with rich, even elaborate results, or their instinct is a no go at this time. Both decisions have merit.
Jupiter is the only planet that changes signs in 2022. He previewed Pisces briefly from May 13 to July 28 2021. He returned to Pisces December 28, 2021. In 2022 Jupiter sped completely through Pisces into Aries in only 5 months, on May 10, after his sextile with Pluto, the last 2022 outer planet to planet aspect!
It’s one thing to make your vows in Pisces, another to take action in Aries! Pisces is what you believe in. Some say ‘Do not ask God to guide your footsteps if you are not willing to move (Aries) your feet (Pisces).’ The last sign, Pisces carries the Dreams of all the signs. Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, the first responders. Initiation means more than taking a title. It means doing your vows. Aries are brave leaders, risk takers, rights fighters. They often have to make instant decisions to save lives. They are fiery Spirits that operate on instant instinct, thank goodness! Consulting is one of their best talents. Listen keenly. Ask your questions right now while they are there with you. They will be gone to the next fire quickly. Staying physically fit is essential and can be totally enjoyable. Prowess feels super! Independence is strong. Ride your bike and fix it yourself! See more Jupiter in Pisces See more Jupiter in Aries
Pisces’s seeing who and what needs help, inspires natural born hero Aries to jump in head first! People are snatched out of harm’s way, saved quickly when possible. With good physical therapy and an inspired happy to be alive client, people’s spirits are reawakened and they are back on their feet in no time. In turn, they become inspirational converts and cohorts to do it now and do your best! We are born again, Initiations to new levels happen. Gratitude is a top word in our story!
Jupiter is looking for purpose with integrity! It takes a core truth and educates as many as will listen to why it is meaningful and worthy. Jupiter has a bold and confident way, expands, embellishes, emphasizes, gives extra! It’s edifying, LOL! Jupiter likes to play and tell whopper stories, laughs big laughs with gusto, has a great big dog and rides the winning horse! In Aries a lot of ground will be traveled, and quickly too! Sparks will fly off his horse’s hooves! Speed is a delight. Records will be broken! Skating, surfing, skiing, biking! Wow!
As Jupiter connects with our personal chart factors during its time in Aries, we will feel like time has sped up, cant’ do things quickly enough! Aries intends to lead us to greener pastures or new and different places, even just to see what we can see! Jupiter teaches new techniques, tells stories of wonder, goes on adventurous travels! In Aries he tells of heroes, survival, self sufficiency, independence! There is a buoyant physicality – walking, skating, bike riding, a cross country trip for a cause! Libra loves meeting new people, chats them up, loves living in new cultures. Jupiter is hot to leave again; Libra may need a rest, some time to steep in the ways of the people, have a good sit down feed with them, share, see their art, hear their beliefs. If Aries is too quickly intimate, Jupiter is too blunt, opinionated without learning about the people, Libra may need to do some fast talking to restore peace. Or they may have to leave suddenly. That might put Libra off, embarrassed. Libra can see that may have happened before, could have gone to jail. They may part company right then and there! Respect and social finesse are important.
Jupiter in Aries can be ambitious! And so can Libra! They want to conquer the territory! Aries charges to discover the perimeters while Libra is making connections within the perimeter to establish a cohesive stabilizing network. Libra takes excursions to keep peace along the border, make trade agreements. Aries the warrior backs Libra up. If Libra isn’t kindly, Aries may confront him or leave if policies aren’t considerate of rights to independence. And no unfair taxation without representation or Robinhood will pay a visit! That can go both ways. If Aries takes over and develops his own private income, Libra will call the Sheriff and put a stop to it!
Other things they may be aggressive about are Aries and his exercise, safe vehicles. Libra wants beauty spas, designer fabrics, classy homes with lovely gardens and refined interior decors! Jupiter wants good roads and hiking trails, bike paths with a view, is passionate about traveling. Libra wants a terrific art museum, cultural and political classes at the university. Aries likes a good trade school with specific expertise while Jupiter would like to own the whole university or be a prof!
Jupiter in Aries and Libra may do well together if… If Jupiter follows protocol and Aries is a gentleman. If Libra has been bored and doesn’t mind a faster life with more volume! All of them have rapid intelligence. Jupiter has the big ideas, Aries says let’s do it, Libra amps up the scanners with pros and cons! They might just pull it off. How long Libra can do this will depend on his own chart. No failure if it isn’t in the cards. Aries and Jupiter are both famous as runaways, love ’em and leave ’em, hard to marry off! Jupiter has places to go, Aries thrives on new situations, including partners. In fact, partners usually mean a loss on independence, and that’s not comfortable for them… They all might be better as friends who visit irregularly or as business connections.
A 12 year change that isn’t done yet! Jupiter retrogrades briefly back into Pisces Oct 27 to Dec 20, 2022. The next day is Winter Solstice, the belly of winter; Jupiter is back in Aries keeping the coals hot. From there are the seeds of new beginnings, the ‘return of the Light!’ Aries is self motivated, always in motion, looking for action, taking the cause to the forefront! It’s rolling onward in Aries, gaining momentum, no going back! From then on until May 16, 2023 he finishes Aries, enters Taurus. What a shift that will be, a damper for some, a rest for others! It will heat up education and advocacy for Earth, our home. Some have been waiting so long for the coming significant changes.
As Aquarian and Piscean talents were commingled, the Path between them becoming a usable channel, so will Jupiter in Pisces and Aries develop their own smooth channel. In their case it will be super aware, sensitive, instantly reactive! Hopefully groups of crusaders will attract and further develop adept leaders, rich with innovative foresight! When Pluto enters Aquarius Jupiter will be at 17° Aries in a FIVE planet Aries stellium! Aries is THE Action sign! That’s what I call a NEW beginning! See the chart at the bottom of that page!
2022 is a very different year.
All three of 2022’s aspects happen only once each, were done May 3, in just over 5 months! All will be formed while Jupiter is in Pisces. From then on it will be putting our discoveries into practice. It will be time to anchor, maintain good ground gained, finesse our current gains, strengthen our Aquarian skills and Aquarian people in view of the March 23, 2023 Pluto into Aquarius for 21 years. Jupiter in Pisces will show us the glorious maturity, endings and dreams of Pisces as the last sign of the Zodiac, and what the first sign of the zodiac, Aries, will work for. It will be good to rest and relax, then stretch our physical and spiritual muscles and take action!
May 3 Jupiter in Pisces sextiled Pluto in Capricorn Once. It was the third and last 2022 planets aspect and Jupiter’s last aspect in Pisces!
The one with the answers walks among us. Some are invisible, some seem ordinary, others really are simply easily sneaky. This could have been a super wealth aspect to check back on, see how investments of that time are doing. In Pisces, wealth can just come upon us, Pisces not always caring about money at all, but if it pays for working your dream, cause, you are ecstatically happy! It may fund your retirement. It can be a cure for old age ailments. Just do what you love and profound healings occur or you simply self equalize your system by forgetting you were ill! Time for dreams to become true through laws à la the Right of Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. An obscure place or peoples (Ukraine?), maybe an indigenous group, become especially important. An extinct animal may reappear or come from frozen wastelands. Maybe you will find the work of your soul! There are many extreme, extremely valuable possibilities that could come with this combination. Pay attention; look below the surface… Be careful not to put your hands or feet where you can’t see… Being lost may be the invitation to a new life. Get the keys to the locks and cross the threshold…or just bully through! They really won’t be surprised to receive you, LOL! The Threshold, Portal, is a sacred place. Hope you didn’t miss it. It activated those of you with chart factors close to 28 Pisces/Capricorn 35. See more!
Libra had mixed results with the Sextile.
- Jupiter is cheerful, but not as refined as Libra. Sometimes Libra needs a good laugh and to get out of the rarefied air for a while! It’s a relief to let your hair down. Jupiter loves bothering Libra a bit and teasing him into a little jaunt together! Libra is brilliant and quick to catch on to Jupiter’s big plans and travel experiences, places he still wants to go to! New connections will be better than usual!
- Pisces is so deep and vast, at times lonesome, that Libra may feel lost standing there with all the people. On the other hand, Libra may see relationships in a soul deep way, never having experienced such spiritual intimacy like this before. There is a vibrational resonance that may need no words at all, not even thinking. Pisces can see the mirroring happening and is as lost in Libra as Libra is in Pisces. Libra may enjoy this visit or want to be free like air signs need to be. But there becomes a shared empathy and Libra sees more kindness than intelligence is required at times. More about Jupiter in Pisces.
- Pluto rules Scorpio, Libra’s neighboring sign ahead. Each are ‘counselors,’ Libra more a mediator, putting yourself in the others’ place, while Scorpio is more the in depth detoxer, helping us to let go our ‘demons,’ heal our own hurts. Libra wants balance of all kinds, while Scorpio can enjoyably seek dangerous extremes, including wealth.
- Libra may be a bit daunted by Capricorn when Cap is hard shelled and gruff. She/they may need some time to get to know each other before they appreciate each other. Libra wants beauty, and Capricorn says no time for that, have a deadline, just want it to do the job. But when they try it in a certain color Libra suggests and it sells like hotcakes, Capricorn has new respect. Libra gets impressed by Capricorn’s responsibility, technically excellent long lasting award winning work.
If your changes include moving, take a look at maps that show areas of conflict, drought. Conflicts take years of recovery; droughts take years of remediation. See your AstroLocality astrologer for advices on personal locations best for what! Depending on your finances, be cautious about moves during retrograde periods. If it is a necessity at a retrograde time, know that there will be further changes and the costs that go with that. Factor that in. If you are buying a home as well, top priority may be that it is a good investment per resale value since you may change your mind about keeping it. Renting is recommended until times are more stable.
All of 2022 Saturn is in Aquarius. Saturn, Capricorn’s builder planet, brings oddly variable Aquarian talents together, builds extraordinary resource consulting networks. He is able to tap the connections, make astute changes quickly, grab them while they are available. The changes have enhanced Saturn business immeasurably! Saturn is generally a more serious end game planet. Necessity and timeliness are important.
Saturn in Aquarius is trine Libra! When in Pisces again, in 2023, he is inconjunct Libra.
During Libra’s year, Saturn covers 18 Aquarius to 7 Pisces. Air signs Libra to Aquarius are trine, communicating well from person to person, from teams to groups, will show amazing results, as brainstorming explodes with ideas and broad all encompassing networks are established and mature. We need to share information about how humans can do their best with each other and with climate changes that are changing all of us! There is new work to be done and we can all be resources for each other for establishing meaningful new jobs. Social consciousness is developing quickly. It is symbolized in Sep 2022 by large companies like Patagonia setting up a legacy trust and non profit for sustainability/climate and protecting undeveloped lands globally! NY Times
Libra with Pisces allows a lot of leeway. Libra sees both sides of everything sometimes forgetting who he is himself! Pisces see the infinity of everything, unimaginable to the average citizen. He can be totally immersed, also lost to himself, or escapes the daily affairs. These two should never be left alone or with each other and no one else, LOL! But think of the possibilities, the art that can happen! Libra wants better for all beings, Pisces IS all beings and then some! He’s the dreamer seeing through time, to essence, wishing for a better world. Putting themselves in the other’s place, empathy begins, soulutions happen, are nurtured. There are relationship shifts no one could have guessed. Spirituality is resonant with the logic Libra brings and a balance between reality and perception can gradually develop unless an epiphany strikes! Spirituality can be put into practice. Whether mimiced, or real, it is tried on for size.
Libra and Saturn have mixed blessings no matter which sign Saturn is in. Libra rules lawyering, the administration of the law in court, bringing things to order. Saturn rules the law, societal structure. He can be your Father, the Boss, the Policeman, the President. Libra can be delicately balanced, the mystic of beauty, genteel. Saturn can literally frighten a Libra who wants a gentle and quiet peace. Saturn, who has at times worked hard to feed his family under the most trying conditions, may find it difficult to accommodate this seeming weakling. Libra can be depressed in a dark grim environment. But Saturn respects the lawyer working so carefully as defender and prosecutor, to find a working justice that may involve large numbers of people, huge money or death. Libras too can work under enormous pressure. Libra may be quite grateful for the structure Saturn provides and that Saturn has high expectation and thinks you can do it! And that may simply involve fair play with the kids at home! Kids have minds of their own, sometimes very subtle minds, LOL! Sometimes Saturn punishment isn’t the whole answer. It may call for the Libra Courtroom Princess to mediate! Do your best!
Portals are all around us. Some are temporary, some are always there. Some are annual like the August 8 Lion’s Gate. No two are alike, take us different places. Some are one way, others are two way but perhaps only at certain intervals – you have to be there or… Some lifetimes there are none, others have several passages. And there are the portals into and out of life.
2023 features Jupiter and Saturn Sign Changes, Super Portal Pluto’s entry into Aquarius, and 3 outer Planet aspects made by Jupiter by June 19, and then there is NO other action! Probably the intensity of Pluto’s sign change is enough! All this occurs within Libra’s year!
Saturn previewed Aquarius Mar 21 to July 1 2020, returned to Aquarius Dec 18 2020. He is still in AQ now, will enter Pisces March 7, 2023 before Jupiter conjuncts Chiron in Aries March 11, the entire Gemini Mars retrograde cycle ends March 16, and Pluto enters Aquarius March 23! That will be a challenging time of unknowns, demanding circumstances, a combination of soothing the wild, maintaining a stable foundation of many years in the making, and facing outright rebellion! For some it will be an explosion of consciousness! Some will be tightly perched on the abyss not ready to let go. If it doesn’t activate your chart in any way at that time, you may wonder why all the fuss? Your turn will come.
Saturn in Pisces Compared with Pisces’ sensitivity, Saturn can seem to be a brutally blunt instrument. Pisces is not used to being limited or channeled by someone else’s command. Saturn may bar or protect you from an experience, or demand you to take your responsibility in its behalf! Either can be a blessing or an ordeal to each other, probably a little of both until they get used to each other. Pisces understands Saturn all too well. Sometimes Saturn simply just loves giving orders; it’s what he does. Pisces wants so much more. Orders without a spiritual cause, without Soul or empathy are short of the mark. Saturn may be a bit shy about that factor. He may be a little intimidated by this limitless wonder who often calls the shots better than any business man Saturn has ever encountered. Respect starts. Pisces realizes Saturn is more deep than anticipated and has good intent though Saturn’s demeanor may belie that at first.
Saturn is generally in a sign about 2 1/4 to 2 1/2 years, so we aren’t talking about a minor experience. As it traverses ALL your chart factors, you will feel different facets of the experience. Some will be more difficult than others. You might see your astrologer to track its path while in the sign. If you are a Pisces, a super sensitive sign, you especially may find it helpful, collecting your powers and applying them with astute psychic accuracy. When Saturn believes you, he will do his best to see your dreams built and come true! If your Saturn is in Pisces, at some point during Saturn in Pisces, you will be having your 28/29 year Saturn Return! It will be a profound time of knowing the Dharma of your life, refreshing, updating your outlook on your purpose this life.
Saturn in Pisces is importantly about building empathy. Empathy will be much needed as Pluto goes into Aquarius. Saturn will guard us from having too much empathy too long, being naive and misplacing our empathy. Saturn humbles us to let go of our arrogance, develop a deep caring. With Pluto in Aquarius there will be intense awareness of great differences among the peoples, from hatred to fear, cults to family feuds, simple misunderstanding. We will need to get to know each other and it won’t be overnight. Saturn will be new in his sign for only 17 days before Pluto becomes new in Aquarius! Each will make newbie mistakes, be alternately excited or OMG, what have we gotten into?! Trial and error will slow us down, making for tiring long days for many. Saturn in Pisces holds the visions and though sometimes down, will usually come through steady and doing his best even with tough odds. Some will try to take advantage of vulnerabilities; others will stumble along, while still others will stand back and look for new ways to heal the planet! There will become amazing love of people and things we never expected.
Libra, curious Libra, will be tweaked, annoyed, intrigued, find himself on an alternate Path without realizing it had happened. Libra is not opposite Pisces, but one sign off to the side, called an inconjunct. Inconjuncts are famous for psychic rapport and insight, peripheral awareness. Both Libra and Pisces are artists using color subtly. Saturn and Libra are designers, use form to impel, compel, guide the channels. Saturn may try to use restraints, but Libra, an air sign will not be bound very long. Air simply escapes, and so does Pisces water! Saturn likes focus where Libra will use diversion and distraction to expand the project. Pisces comes along, merges and imagines in the dreamtime, washes all debris away with sweeping oceanic waves of consciousness from the inside to outer environment freeing our Spirits! What Saturn anchored well remains, stands the test. What Libra has secured in bonded relationships, friend and partnerships, will help channel and establish further meaningful connections, painting further potential! There will be adjustments that can do wonders! Some changes will be in the heartbeat of society itself and will enthusiastically carry on of its own freewill! It’s time has come.
Libra and Pisces are both sensitives. Saturn can be a tough taskmaster. If simply used, Libra and Pisces can feel a heaviness, lack of appreciation, and get gloomy. One day they may slyly get together, betray, throw Saturn overboard! Libra, often a people pleaser, Pisces the forgiving empath, need to guard themselves, set boundaries, keep themselves in a healthy environment. They need to keep right responsibility, not what others impose on them, and know their personal limits. Saturn may not like it, but he will usually respect it when said realistically and matter of factly. If these people can’t do his job, Saturn needs to move them right along for all our sake.
With Saturn in Pisces, there will be less wandering aimlessly, confirmation of the realities of dreams, daily visible progress, oceanic environmental laws to be made. They will survey the seas and shores, the importance of millions of miles of shorelines, prevention of pollution – debris and chemicals, assurance of abundant long term ocean harvests. Saturn may find himself on an ocean safari while in Pisces, or gone on the wind taking the computers to the surf zone when the surf’s up, whichever continent that may be on! Working from ‘home’ takes on new meaning! Really! Can be done! Libra is impressed by their capacity and successes and want to add his talents to their efforts!
Jupiter makes three planetary aspects, all three once only.
1) Jupiter in Aries conjuncts Chiron, March 11, thirteen days before Pluto goes into Aquarius! Jupiter and Aries can easily overdo things, may fall into injury, ills may be exacerbated, made much of, or remarkably quickly healed!!! If difficult, it may be important steps of your growth process. Major cures may be sought, finally! Long standing illnesses may fall away all by themselves as other fun things in life become your focus! Lucky Jupiter gives public education, publicity and perspective, generally has excellent personal health – a perfect poster person! Chiron is the old shamanic healer tested by the Gods! In Aries he imposes his independence, uses and promotes cutting edge techniques and remedies, hopefully to your great advantage! Neither Jupiter nor Aries are the marrying kind unless there are other chart factors that change the balance, so don’t fall in love with the Dr. or teacher, but they can have super adventures together, LOL!
Libra has been wanting a balance more favoring Chiron research into healing of long standing health matters. It offends Libra’s sense of beauty and kindness to see people suffer in so many ways due to disease. The pandemic has brought it literally home to many along with the costs personally experienced. Loss of relationships has been enormous through loss of work, social time, deaths. So much has changed, and we see there are things we can do. New healing methods can apply to other situations in our lives, being willing to try new solutions. Jupiter and Libra both love people, cultures and traveling, learning and expanding. Share what you learn. Aries and Libra may be opposite, but they are of the same coin! Aries wants independence, enjoys working quickly unfettered alone. Libra brings in additional experts and Aries loves new juice! They can dance and may make news!
Pluto makes that stupendous 248 year sign change into Aquarius Mar 23, 2023! We need Aquarius to be strong, in working order, integrated and grounded among ourselves, in our communities, internationally. Pluto will be in Aquarius 21 years, until January 2044! See more!
- Pluto in Aquarius will bring a new time. Pluto is Scorpio’s planet and Pluto/Aquarius are not exactly ‘compatible.’ Pluto has a ton of charisma, yet is as much private as Aquarius can’t help but bring attention by his simple presence. AQ is exotic, super intelligent, often revels in neon colors, odd/unique looks and attire, has electric static. He can get attention for being THE archetypal loner, or the brilliant head of a world humanitarian organization. Pluto is used to going it alone and having plenty of behind the scenes power, but Aquarius may be calling on the pantheon that collectively has more power than Pluto and his corporations! Transparency is called for. Pluto is going to have some adjusting to do. He may be concerned for loss of privacy, be a bit jealous too. At the very worst, there could be power struggles for world rule, including genocide. Or they will synthesize for mutual goals. They will do fundraising like never seen before! Pluto may gather the world’s top wealthy humanitarians and sustainable advocates and make governments of countries look small in comparison. Since these groups will have no governmental constraints, they may bring the world together when governments couldn’t. By comparison, the financially unsupported United Nations may become passé, or it’s possible, its structure already in place, it may be revitalized! Comprehensive large scale inventor/researcher work could do very well to sustain and amplify their efforts.
- All the Aquarian flavored aspects we had in 2021, early 2022, have given us a head start. We’ll do Pluto in Aquarius better! Pluto was last in Aquarius 246 years ago, 1777 to 1799, a 22 year period of worldwide uproar and change – American Revolution, the French Revolution, the Industrial Revolution in England. And it won’t be any different this time! Guarantee! So get your friends and alliances/networks in working order, stand up, get used to acting progressively, and be ready to roll! Some will mightily resist; others will persist with new ideas. Change will beget change. Take a peek at what Patrick Watson has to say on Pluto per sign historically. Check out what Lynn Hayes has to say about what Dylan Love has to say on transhumanism.
- Since that last 246 years ago we now have bombs, climate change, an ongoing pandemic, electronic communication, robotics, and a helluva a lot more people on the planet. In the 1700s there were an estimated 603M, at the end of 2021, 7.9B. Water and weather wars are possible. Actually, water wars are already starting – pollution prevention, Detroit, Standing Rock. We need to reassess our mandates for leadership – age and both physical and mental health. There are going to be some bumps. Some say, after the kinks are worked out, there will be a ‘Golden Age!’ Make it so. Or maybe that would be just toooo boring and other things will happen, LOL! Next! Evolution is no quitter!
- Young people born around 2003 will be about 20 in March 2023 and from 20 until they are 41, they will live this period. Their lives will be about this world changing time. Help them now. Prepare them to be strong and steady leaders. Strengthen everything Aquarius in your life. Virgo is a fastidious teacher, will take the time to show us how to do things. She records processes so others can follow and do the same. She will make sure their bodies are healthy and they think good thoughts. She assesses their special talents and encourages them to share their gifts!
- We need to strengthen our Aquarian young people, our future leaders, and all Aquarians! Pluto is tough on the sign it is in and at the same time empowers them! Pluto’s sign Scorpio squares, challenges Aquarius, so Pluto will be especially tense in Aquarius in the beginning. Growing pains take strength. Take time to listen, cheer them on. Admire their broad scope, how they get teams going, their care for humanity and our planet, their inventions and science. Help them know how to carry on even when they are not appreciated or understood. They are so intelligent, ahead of their time. They know that not everyone will understand their work, yet the work needs doing.
- Preparation for Pluto entering Aquarius will take steady and dedicated work, staying focused. Everything about how groups and friendships work, even now the Souls who can do this need to be gathered and trained and to practice. The importance and techniques of research, knowing how change is brought about successfully, are the goals. The foundation needs to be set. It has been and will continue to be explored, tested and trialed by Saturn and in the remaining 2022, early 2023.
Libra sets the course for Aquarius! They are Air signs. A natural stream of consciousness flows between them. Libra makes partners and connections; Aquarius takes those all together and networks planetarily for common cause! Both are genius quick. Libra will lobby for exceptional change, talk comfortably with people in power, intelligently shows the merits of the possibilities, costs and profits. Aquarius will keep supplying astounding ideas! Research is going at top speed. If Aquarius gets too technical, ‘advanced,’ Libra can bring it to the people in terms they understand. No one is bored!
2) Jupiter in Taurus squares Pluto in Aquarius, sextiles Saturn in Pisces.
Taurus is Venus’ first sign. Libra is Venus’s 2nd sign. Both have to do with beauty and values. Taurus is our body, our basic ‘possession,’ the body of Earth herself and all the organic beauty and values incumbent in both. Libra is our relationships, body to body, socially mind to mind, our attractiveness to others, our cultural heritage, changing values and how we govern them. Libra finds some things never change while others reach a natural end and will change with or without us. Libra is a great mediator and can facilitate change graciously.
May 16/17 Jupiter enters Taurus and immediately makes its first aspect, square Pluto at 0 Taurus/Aquarius! That will be a tough transition for many, involving major financial matters, extreme weather. Taurus is a powerful sign, both ‘stubborn’ and steadfast. Jupiter is looking for the power of peace, connection with Earth, the land and soil, its animals, the trees, food for our bodies, Heart and Soul, clean water. Environmental situations are being reviewed, how we travel our sphere. Our land is so important because it leads to the ocean. Values are changing as we have environmental extremes, questions about where to live safely. Jupiter, that has always ruled longevity, is being challenged by stressful perspectives politically, environmental conditions including water pollution and scarcity. One can no longer be so blithe about the many issues at hand. These powerful real concerns, stress, can indicate more poor health at pandemic levels. The old solution, to move somewhere else, is a lot less viable now that we have, at the end of 2021, 7.9B population. There are no new frontiers, and Jupiter’s adventure travel map to unknowns is dwindling as drought and dangerous areas are increasing.
Taurus challenges Pluto, the planet of Scorpio, Taurus’s opposite! Taurus squares Aquarius. He is Earthy; Aquarius is boundless air! Jupiter thinks everyone needs an education, some perspective, and faith no matter what! Pluto doesn’t usually like tell-all-Jupiter, but sometimes will plant a leak so what he wants to get out, gets out. Though he appears not to listen, believe me, he wants to know what he’s up against, and now, May 2023, in Aquarius almost 2 months, he’s been waiting for Jupiter’s 2¢! The potency of squares is sometimes what we need to be aware of, what’s up. If there are losses, scandals, slander, they will be big, the Truth will out with shame and blame. Yet even if in a challenge or catastrophe, Jupiter usually wants the best for everyone though it may take some doing. So, clear the debris, mend the fallout. Off to the races we go! Aquarius stands by, to quickly assess possibilities. There will be some remarkable breakthroughs and revelations due to the shifts! This aspect happens only once. Don’t miss the opportunity for a tune up! Listening to each other will free us to open doors!
Jupiter and Libra are great travelers and teachers together. Each wants the best all the others have to offer and to get the word out! Jupiter in Taurus may like the local area so much he decides to stay. So travel intermittently to rural areas significant to global change! Libra can chat up innovative boss farmers, politicos and tell subsequent gatherings the current news, laws and options. Jupiter can consult with locals about pros and cons of new earth techniques. Jupiter in Taurus looks for the values under his feet, the health of the land. Libra wants to know where the water is coming from, the relationships the land has with neighboring properties, its value to the people as a cultural archive ~ hub of a wheel, resale value and its aesthetic appeal. Translate this to other factors like other jobs, your health, your place among your people.
The situation will ease quite a bit when Pluto retrogrades back into Capricorn June 11, 2023 until Jan 20, 2024. Taurus and Capricorn are both Earth signs looking for practical common-sense solutions though Libra does square Capricorn…just remember, no caged birds – let each do their special part. See Pluto in Capricorn
3) June 19, Jupiter in Taurus sextile Saturn in Pisces, is the last aspect of 2023! After that time there are no more sign changes or further aspects! That doesn’t mean YOU won’t have any aspects the rest of the year because the planets are still moving; it’s just that they are not connecting with each other!
Jupiter will speed up Taurus. Taurus will likely absorb some of Jupiter’s action and translate it to more solid application, actually getting more done. There will be less time for running around, running away. Taurus will be intrigued with some of Jupiter’s thinking and broader perspectives. In Taurus, Jupiter may find a longing to return to the land of his forbears. It is a natural homing instinct for grounding and centering. Ley Lines may take on an unexpected significance. A journey may be made along a path that many have taken. As each travels over the ground, a fraction of their scent is left, added to all the others of before, compelling the Pilgrim to follow. The content of the scent shifts and the purpose of the destination changes with the times as the content is altered. The collective scent alters the collective consciousness of the most recent travelers. We all are walking through time.
With Saturn, the Capricorn planet, the changes will be put to use and tempered through time. Saturn in Pisces will ‘read’ the Pisces dreamtime and Pisces will lead him through these remarkable channels, incorporating the wisdom of Saturn elders on the Path and the infinite Pisces insights to beyond the Jupiter destination! It will be more productive than ever expected!
Definitely time for more options and opportunities. Jupiter’s manner may be a bit big for Taurus’s peaceful style, but the ideas are intriguing. Whether stock or plants, the two can work out what breeds and varieties make sense. Taurus will need to hear and test how the ideas can be implemented. Saturn and Taurus, both earthy, work well together. Taurus grows the food, landscapes. Saturn looks for workable shelter and building locations, and in Pisces, secures the water situation. Business can improve steadily. With Pisces visions and sensitivity, they are guided gently to open up to working well together. Jupiter is good at teaching and the whole crew will be on board, especially when the results start coming in.
Enjoy these powerful intense times! The possibilities are compelling!
The Galactic Center, Fixed Star Algol and Planet Pluto!
All three of these are dark characters! The Galactic Center is a gigantic black hole! Algol has a dark reputation, ie beheadings, when your lights go out. Pluto, ruler of the underworld, is the furthest planet from the Sun, the darkest and frozen to boot!
Fixed star ALGOL and the GC are in lockstep! Each being star factors, they each take 72 years to move a degree. Currently Algol is at 26 Taurus and the GC is 27 Sagittarius. Whenever one is activated, so is the other. Algol and the GC have an oblique off center position (inconjunct), aware, but out of the corner of your eye. That position is common in the charts of psychics. They ‘see’ peripheral factors that influence the outcome. Inconjuncts sometimes lead you on a goose chase, but maybe to greener pastures. You do get a greater perspective. Even if you go back home, you are different. You have perhaps made new friends and associates that can carry that sector for you. Excellent adjustments are in the offing. Destination Algol would not usually be a conscious choice, but sometimes it is part of our Path and it just happens. Square your shoulders and do it, eyes wide open. Fascinating encounter.
Algol is the baddest Star according to some! It is a rare triple star and eclipsing binary, which means it blinks, and changes brightness, even ‘disappears!’ It is the Medusa’s Head, carried in the left hand of the Hero, Perseus. On the dark side, ‘It causes misfortune, violence, decapitation, hanging, electrocution and mob violence, and gives a dogged and violent nature that causes death to the native or others. It is the most evil star in the heavens.’ Some say it’s not the ‘bad’ within us but pushing through blockages to the beauty beyond is what really matters. We can face our demons with sincere intent and life changes for the better! See more! See more about the spiritual side…
Algol’s bad rep, strikes fear in a lot of hearts, but so does the Galactic Center when people find out it is one gigantic black hole!!! You could vanish in an instant! You astral travelers might should be careful? I like to think of Algol as the GC’s Guardian. Algol is considered to be a super powerful feminine force. It would take such an entity to protect the mighty GC! Their off center relationship may take you on the road less followed, so to speak. There is a draw to explore. Algol is ready to stomp her feet and ‘invite’ you to travel, or takes you another place once the GC’s info has been bestowed, a place that needs the information the most.
Many give Algol a wide berth, plan carefully astrologically. To be on the safe side, Astrologers often allow 5 degrees for the effective range with Algol while most stars get only 1 degree range. If in neighboring signs, only 3 or less degrees might be used. If you have chart factors in that 5 degree range, one way or another you are connected with Algol. If you have questions, do see your astrologer.
Pluto is now at 26 Capricorn and moves only 3° a year. Pluto retrogrades back and forth through the degrees as it travels Capricorn. Anytime it is between 23 Cap 27 to 29 Cap 27, it will trine Algol. That period started Feb 2020, virus time, and will go through Jan 2024. It is now continuously trine Algol. Exact trines are formed 5 times: on Spring Equinox Mar 20, & June 5, 2021, and in 2022 Jan 17, 2022 on the Full Wolf Moon, Aug 29, Nov 16.
Pluto has been having the Algol experience, and is one of the few who can stand up under this trial. Very luckily, the trine is the most favorable angle, so though not unscathed, he survives. Both Pluto and Algol are respected and incur life and death situations. One hopes the trine bends the relationship with Algol to a more satisfactory outcome. Earth signs, like Capricorn, especially being the last Earth sign, are a bit ‘indelible.’ Their effects are more long lasting. Keep turning the tables on Algol’s bad rep. Stay calm in the face of violence, even your own anger. Shift your connections so better can happen. Know your rights and choose safety unless/even if you are trying to save someone’s life. If you are the offender, get all the help you can to change. Many a fine leader has come from a dark place. See more!
We talked about Libra and Taurus just above in 2) Jupiter in Taurus squares Pluto in Aquarius. As to that great fierce feminine troublemaker Algol in Taurus, Libra is always trying to see the other person’s side and put themselves in the other person’s place. Algol probably won’t put up with Libra simply being pretty, placating or pleasing. She will see right through it. So be 100% real, all truth and no lies. The connection will have a chance then. Libra can really see, and is intelligent. Algol will appreciate being treated as an equal. Walk lightly and no teasing just to see what will happen. Remember, you are in her house.
Libra is Air and the Galactic Center’s sign is fiery Sagittarius! Sagittarius is the sign of the mythical Centaurs, the half horse, half man, intelligent horses! They were bluff and boisterous partyers and everybody was fair game! Not exactly Libras usually more genteel opera, symphony and plays MO! But, Libra can be a good sport, and sometimes lets their hair down, way down, LOL! But a steady diet of noise and bad diet wreaks havoc with Libra’s mind and body, so it will be fun, but brief! If you were born on or 3 or 4 days of Oct 20th you have had a lifelong connection with the GC and may be flavored by it and enjoy more rowdy fun, like a bit more cowboy, country and western! If not, you are spared, LOL! If Pluto is currently making aspects to other factors in your chart, you may be having a challenging time. Any time Pluto or other factors aspect your chart at or near 26 and 27 degrees, Algol and the Galactic Center will also be involved.
Meanwhile, you Librans may be called on to negotiate a big event politically, as a wedding planner, a grand opening, officiate an art show, welcome an exceptional performer, or put on the school winter program! It will take a ton of creative imagination, connecting will all kinds of supporters, maybe doing fundraising. You may be a bit scared, but proud too! It could happen around Winter Solstice, Christmas time. Do plenty of brainstorming for unique ‘galactic’ ideas! it ill be so fun!
Returns! Returns are a special time when a planet orbits back to your original birth point. It reminds you of the purity of its purpose in your life. Saturn’s refreshes your outlook on your Dharma, the work of your Soul. Jupiter’s refreshes your gift of how you learn/teach and travel life!
Those of you with your Saturn’s from 18 Aquarius to 7 Pisces will be having your 28/29 year Saturn Returns in Libra’s year!
11/12 year Jupiter Returns will be from 28 Pisces 48, all of Aries, to 15 Taurus in this Libra year.
Lunar patterns!

Your project will gain volume and wholeness as you go ~ Lay out your plan per sign then expect to update as you grow with it and more possibilities becme apparent, available!
Quality connections of all kinds have a major part to play during this Pluto transition into Aquarius!
Updated for each sign annually
