New Moon in Scorpio: Pluto transforms your life!

New Moon in Scorpio: Pluto transforms your life!

Hi, Everyone,

This is a particularly intense Scorpio season for multiple reasons.  To begin with, both of the rulers of Scorpio are in combat and will peak on 11/3/24, which is just two days before the Election in the United States.  

Mars is the Roman god of war and is the planet of action, drive, passion, desire, and anger.  It is also can be connected with the masculine and with sexuality.  Pluto is the higher octave of Mars. It represents power, alchemy, transformation, intimacy, death, destruction,rebirth, transcendence, joint resources, and unhealed wounds.  

Mars and Pluto are building up to a HUGE opposition, which peaks on 11/3/2024 at 6:37 am EDT at 29 degrees and 45 minutes of the Cardinal signs of Cancer and Capricorn.  This is very combustible energy, and it is highly combative.  We always feel the onset of Mars’ energy before it becomes exact.  

Mars starts to kick in 10/28/24 when it reaches 28 degrees of Cancer setting of Pluto in a bigger way we can all feel.  Currently, there are five points transiting in water signs:  Mars, the planet of action, in Cancer; the Sun, which represents ego and identity in Scorpio; Mercury, planet of perception, perspective, and the mind in Scorpio; Saturn, planet of karma, challenges, and restrictions, in Pisces; Neptune, planet of dreams, imagination, delusion, and deception, in Pisces.

With all of these points in water signs, this heightens  intuition, psychic abilities, dreams, and messages. Pay attention to your dreams and all of the messages you may receive through music, clocks, birds, or however you get them. 

Try to connect to your intuition and find ways to heal through getting more rest, journaling your anxieties or anger, meditation, sound baths, walking in nature, listening to music, and tapping into the healing modalities. 

This is very sensitive energy, so people can feel both very vulnerable and triggered; but, also easy to anger.  Mars is now in its shadow period, which means that it has already reached 17 degrees of the Cardinal water sign of Cancer, which is where it stations direct when it finally does go direct on February 23, 2025. 

Mars is both slowing down to retrograde and also involved in combat with Pluto, which is about to change signs and re-enter the Fixed air sign of Aquarius.  When Pluto ingresses back into the Fixed air sign of Aquarius, that means HUGE shifts on the collective level. 

While Pluto finishes its sixteen year tour in the Cardinal earth sign of Capricorn, old systems are getting demolished in our lives and on the world stage.  We are preparing for a whole new world and a whole new era of new beginnings! 

Energetic shifts are real, and Mars activates the purging of the old to make room for the new.  Pluto is the cosmic eliminator, and it is interesting timing that all of this occurs during Scorpio season, which Pluto rules. 

As I write this article, Mercury, the cosmic messenger, opposes Uranus, planet of enlightenment and surprise.  This could bring unexpected news and can make you think on your feet! It can also be very exciting energy that brings good brainstorming and innovative ideas that come to you out of nowhere.

The New Moon kicks off the month of November with a lunar opportunity to initiate new beginnings around purging, detoxing, healing, and empowering.  This New Moon chart has the energy of Mars and Pluto opposite at the very degree and building up to that opposition on November 3rd.  The need to detox and let go is real.  The need for change and letting go of old systems, patterns, and relationships that hold you back is real.  The need for change on the collective level is real.

The New Moon occurs on 11/1/2024 at 8:47 am EDT at 9 degrees and 35 minutes of the Fixed water sign of Scorpio.  In this New moon chart, there is a kite, which brings a beautiful opportunity to work with healing, purging old painful memories, and connecting to your intuition. 

Mercury, planet of thinking, forms a helfpul trine to Saturn, planet of structure, and the two both trine Mars, planet of action.  This is a Grand Trine in water, which is a flow of energy and helps to connect to your intuive abilities and imagination to manifest.  

This Grand Trine is involved in a bigger aspect known as a Kite, in which one of the planets involved in this lucky Grand Trine, which is when all three planets form the shape of a triangle. One of the planets is involved in an opposition, which is a pain point.

In this case, Mars in Cancer is opposite Pluto in Capricorn. Both are at an anaretic degree, which means that they are at the final degree of the sign. This is a degree of crisis, culmination, and finality. Old power structure are being released.

Capricorn is ruled by the planet Saturn, which rules time.  Capricorn represents the old, and it represents leaders and people in power.  Old hierarches and power structures are morphing with the times.  The times, they are A-changin’.

This kite gives us a cosmic opportunity to work with magic, manifesting, and those fun cosmic tools right after Halloween and in a season that loves witchy things and those cosmic tools that we all have within us if we can suspend disbelief and connect to the source within us, which is unlimited. Part of this involves letting go of anger with the Mars/Pluto opposition; letting go of past resentment with Mars in Cancer, which could trigger old childhood resentments and things that hurt you. 

Old memories could surface or the feeling of something you have experienced before. People are a lot more moody and touchy when Mars transits in the sign of Cancer. 

The New Moon in Scorpio forms a helpful angle to Saturn, planet of responsibility, structure, accountability, and realization. Saturn stations direct on November 15, 2024 at 12 degrees and 41 minutes of the Mutable water sign of Pisces.  Saturn will remain at 12 degrees of Pisces through early December, and this is an optimistic signature with this New Moon in Scorpio, that there are guides around us and cosmic protection if we open our hearts and minds.  

I will not deny that this energy is very combative, and some people may really go off the deep end with anger, violence, and passion.  Kim Jong Un launched a missile test designed to threaten the United States and is also deploying troops to help Russia. 

This is just days before the presidential election in the United States and another sign of the Mars/Pluto opposition that bursts on 11/3/24 and just weeks of completing Pluto in Capricorn, that represents world leaders in power. 

We have to use the energy of the Grand trine in water and of the Kite to manifest love, protection, and healing of hatred.  We need to shield with love.  Mars enters the Fixed fire sign of Leo on 11/3/24 at 11:10 pm EST.  Mars retrogrades on 12/6/24 at 6 degrees and 11 minutes of Leo; therefore, try to get as much done now that you want to launch for the New Year if it is something new altogether.

Mars in Leo is passionate, fun, creative, and courageous.  It is figuring out how to shine in what you do and doing what makes your heart happy.  Use this New Moon to release fears, be couragous, use power and even anger in a healthy way, release resentment, and purge the toxic.  I wish you much luck.   

The New Moon is always an excellent time to write down intentions, do a manifesting ritual on your own or with others to magnify the energy, and to do the Law of Abundance.

To do the Law of Abundance, take a blank check and date it for 11/1/2024. Where it says, “Pay to the order of, ” write down your full name. Leave the small numeric box empty. On the following line, where you normally print out the amount, write, “Paid in Full.” Where you normally sign your name at the bottom of the check, print, “The Law of Abundance.” I wish you much luck in this time of transformation!

Lunar Eclipse in Pisces: In search of Happy dreams Copy

Full Moon in Aries packs a punch!

Hi, Everyone,

In spite of being awake until after 4 am, I feel called to write this newsletter. It will not a big one; but, Aries energy tends to blow up so quickly, that it need not be. The caffeine is soaring through my body like the Grand Cross soon will be in the sky, and I am amped up and ready to go!

Before we dive into this tempestuous and stormy Full Moon, let’s reflect on what recently has occurred. Jupiter, the Grand Benefic, retrograded on October 9, 2024 at 21 degrees and 20 minutes of Gemini. We feel that energy five days before and five days afterwards. Jupiter represents optimism, hope, the big vision, philosophies, belief systems, higher learning, and benevelonce.

Jupiter is the greater benefic, but it also exaggerates whatever it touches — good or bad. Pluto, the planet of power, dominion, death, regeneration, destruction, and renewal, stationed direct on October 11, 2024 at 29 degrees and 38 minutes of the Cardinal earth sign of Capricorn. We feel that INTENSITY five days before and five days afterwards. This was all within about a week of the Solar Eclipse in Libra.

When Pluto stations, generally there are big endings, major revelations to get brought to light, layoffs, and breakups. As I used to say about a guy in college whose name I did not know, “There goes Mr. Intense.” He really was not anything but a sheltered rich kid, but we will utilize him for this story. Mr/Mrs/Ms/Mr/they Intense is definitely walking around, and it is heavy! Unlike the joker in school, Mr. Intense is not joking around with us. Lessons that come up now for you need to be heeded.

Mercury, the planet of the mind, thoughts, and ideas, entered the Fixed water sign of Scorpio on October 13, 2024, where it will tour through November 2, 2024. Pluto rules the sign of Scorpio, and it is a phenomenal placement for uncovering information and getting to the bottom of things. Pluto is the cosmic detective, and it will get to the bottom of things.

All of the outer planets retrograde for several months per year. Pluto retrograded on May 2, 2024 at 2 degrees and 6 minutes of the Fixed air sign of Aquarius. Pluto will ingress back into Aquarius on November 19, 2024, where it will transit through March 8, 2043. The New Age of Aquarius will be moving at such a rapid pace, and the frequencies will be on a whole other level.

In the interim, we are wrapping up karmic stories around the material goals, finances, money, power, people in authority, status, and Capricorn themes. This is the final ending of the Epoch of Capricorn, which was at its height in 2020 when Saturn and Pluto met up at 22 degrees of Capricorn, Jupiter was transiting in Capricorn, and Eclipses were in the Capricorn/Cancer axis.

29 degrees of a sign is a degree of crisis. This is the universe imploring you to let go of the old structures, relationships,patterns, and lifestyle that no longer serves you. We were unconsciously already working in a new era of intuition, new ways of thinking, and technology for several years; but, we shut the doors down permanently on November 19, 2024. Pluto will be leaving the building to start something completely new.

Therefore, this Full Moon is a wopper of a Full Moon because it is combative, contentious, argumentive, and it wants endings. It also wants you to be a warrior with disgression. Is that possible?! The Full Moon occurs on October 17, 2024 at 7:26 am EDT at 24 degrees and 35 minutes of the Cardinal fire sign of Aries.

I set the chart for Washington DC, and the Eclipse chart has Libra ascendant with the Sun right on the angle. It forms what is known as a Grand Cross in that the Sun and Moon are always opposite during a Full moon; they are 180 degrees apart.

Add to the fact that Mars in Cancer, which is a moody placement for Mars and the ruler of this fiery full moon in Aries, sends out a punch both to the Sun and Moon in Libra; it also forms a wide opposition to Pluto, which says this has been a drawn-out goodbye, but good riddance! Chiron, which is the Wounded Healer, is only three degrees away from the Moon in Aries and emphasizes all of the pain and wounds. All of the loss. Chiron sets of that legendary pairing of the two malefics: Saturn and Pluto. They met up at 22 degrees of Capricorn, and that is getting triggered by Chiron and this Full Moon in Aries.

This Full Moon marks the official end of Eclipse season, as it is the first lunation since the Eclipses; however, I feel we deal with the lingering effects a while longer — particularly with Pluto at its final degree in Capricorn. A lot of people in power being brought down, a lot of heavy world situations that are highly tentative, and a lot of fear. Aries is such an impulsive sign, but this is certainly not a time for any of us to act with impulsivity. Mars and Pluto in combat is an aspect of violence. Those are the two rulers of Scorpio.

I think this Full Moon also reminds us that Mars will be retrograde for quite some time; as it only retrogrades once every 22 months. Mars enters Leo on November 3, 2024 — right after it forms an exact opposition to Pluto in Capricorn. That is very virulent energy. Not to be in fear but to mindful that that energy is at play in early November. We always feel Mars transits before they are exact; therefore, it may be at play on November 1st and 2nd.

Mars retrogrades on December 6, 2024 at 6 degrees and 11 minutes of the Fixed fire sign of Leo and stations direct on February 23, 2025 at 17 degrees of Cancer. It will not leave the sign of Cancer until April 18, 2025 and will not clear its shadow until May 2, 2024. This is very useful energy because when Mars is retrograde, it is not an ideal time to get surgery, to launch a new business, to start a new job, or to change your appearance.

We cannot all avoid those time frames, so do as much as you can now to eliminate the fears of what keeps you back. This Full moon could incite so much anger in people; but, the idea is that the first Eclipse in Pisces was so vulnerable and delicate. It was conjunct Neptune, which reached the final degree of Pisces and of the Zodiac. These natural disasters, storms, hurricanes, and floods throughout Europe, Asia, Mexico, America, etc. has been horrific. I am sure I have left places out, but it shows how many storms have occurred since September.

Pisces is the part of the subsconscious mind. As much it is indicates our dreams and imagination, it also summons our fears and nightmares. This Full Moon in Aries may be incendiary, but maybe that is what we need to fuel us to fight the unknown. Not with impulse, not with meaningless destruction, but with confidence and forward motion. Do as much as you can to get yourself in line for 2025. Mars will retrograde before the end of the year, but we will still have six weeks. If you are launching something big, take all of the micro and macro steps now to get it in motion.

If you are in a group setting tomorrow, a meditation circle, a sound bath, or with friends, this is a great time to do a group ritual to release fears together.

A lot of breakups and endings since the Solar Eclipse in Libra. Focusing on what is of value and finding people that align with those values as we re-enter the REAL NEW AGE OF AQUARIUS! I know this is such a tough time for all, and I am going through something on a personal level as well. Rember that the North Node of Karma is still in Aries through January 6, 2025, which encourages you to have COURAGE and be BOLD in this very uncertain time in the world. Most importantly, please keep love in your heart! #fullmoon #Aries #Libra #plutodirect #astrology

Lunar Eclipse in Pisces: In search of Happy dreams

Lunar Eclipse in Pisces: In search of Happy dreams

Hi, Everyone,
 
The moment we have been waiting for us is upon us: The partial Lunar Eclipse occurs on September 17, 2024 at 10:34 pm EDT at 25 degrees and 41 minutes of Pisces. This Full Moon Eclipse occurs in a mutable water sign, which means that it is extremely intuitive, emotional, psychic, sensitive, and is constantly fluid and taking different shapes.
 
This Eclipse series defaults back to the last time the Eclipses were in the Pisces/Virgo axis, and that began on March 20, 2015 when there was a Total Solar Eclipse at 29 degrees and 27 minutes of Pisces, which is the final degree of Pisces and of the Zodiac. This is exactly the degree at which Neptune, the modern ruler of Pisces, was transiting from May 4, 2024 through September 4, 2024 and will return next spring on and off through February 15, 2026.
 
Lunar Eclipses and Solar Eclipses are extra powerful Full and New Moons. In order to have an Eclipse, the Nodes of Destiny have to be within 18 degrees of the Sun and the Moon. That is why Eclipse seasons are so eventful and bring very fated and dramatic events that can sometimes change our lives in a flash and that bring big revelations, moves, major beginnigs, endings, and an end to situations that have been brewing for a long time.
Neptune at the last degree of Pisces is wrapping up all of the lessons and challenges of the signs that precede the mutable water sign of Pisces. The final degrees of Pisces is the Fixed star known as Scheat and is a degree of empathy, creativity, and selfless love. However, it is also a degree of self undoing, suicide, despair, addiction, drowing, and being lost at sea.
 
At this moment, many are drowning in the mental health and drug epidemic, and this is a time where it is crucial to practice healthy tools for self care both emotionally and physically. Check in on on people that struggle with depression or addiction issues.
 
This Lunar Eclipse is a time of endings, departures, loss, and surrender. It is also an Eclipse where many are learning more about their spiritual journey that is led by both Saturn and Neptune in Pisces. The Nodes of Fate change signs next January, and the North Node of Karma enters the final degree of Pisces, where Neptune recently transited for several months. This brings a big focus on connecting to your intuition, learning new spiritual and healing tools to serve you in various ways, and finding some kind of faith in a time of uncertainty.
Over the weekend, Venus formed a beautiful angle to Jupiter, the planet of optismism, blessings, opportunities, and hope. Venus is the planet of value, self esteem, creativity, and love. It is currently transiting in its home sign of Libra, where is loves to be and is centered on justice, relationships, and partnering. Those are the two benefics of the Zodiac, and they are still in harmony.
 
Venus proceeded to oppose Chiron the wounded Healer, on September 16, 2024 at 22 degrees of Libra and Aries, which are at the world point and impacts all of us. Chiron in Aries wants you to have courage to be imperfect and be yourself. It wants you to face yourself.
 
This Lunar Eclipse is very much about surrendering and letting go; yet, it is a North Node Eclipse, which indicates that that there is a lot of opportunity for self growth in the revelations that occur. Eclipses bring things to light and make us see things in a way we never have before. The North in Aries reinforces what Chiron wants you to do, and that is to be yourself, be confident, and take new steps to grow and get out of your comfort zone to heal with this vulnerable eclipse in Pisces.
Eclipses bring things to light and make us see things in a way in which we never have before. The partial Lunar Eclipse occurs when a fraction of the moon is covered by the Earth’s shadow. It is a still a very revelant and impactful Lunar Eclipse in that it meets up with Neptune, which is so pronounced in the collective journey this year both with Saturn and Neptune transiting in the Neptune driven sign of Pisces; but, also with Neptune at the Final degree of the Zodiac, where it has not been in approximately 165 years, as that it takes Neptune to orbit the sun.
This Lunar Eclipse takes place at 10:43 pm EDT at 25 degrees and 41 minutes of Pisces and is conjunct Neptune, the planet of dreams, intuition, psychic ability, imagination, creativity, secrets, hidden information, deception, confusion, and fog. In some cases, deception will be brought to light in a big way, as Neptune is the hidden, and Eclipses are revealing. This is also a time to pay attention to your dreams and messages you receive in different ways — whether it be through a song, the time on your phone, a licence plate, etc. This is a time to connect spirit guides, angels, and those that can help you.
 
The Full Moon Eclipse also squares Jupiter, the ancient ruler of Pisces, which expands whatever it touches and can amplify the dreamy, intuitive, and psychic energy of this Eclipse. With Neptune close to the Moon, and the Full Moon Eclipse in conflict with Jupiter, many feel extremely drained and tired. This is a time to get extra rest. Virgo is a connection of mind and health and a time to stay grounded and focused on details. Pisces is a time of suspension of disbelief, listening within, and is much more out-of-body.
 
Write down things that you want to release — old grievances of people that have hurt you that you wish to forgive. You can also forgive yourself. If you can, burn those notes and clear your heart. Make room for new dreams. In this Eclipse chart, there is a kite. Neptune, which rules the sign of pisces and is the planet of dreams, forms a sextile to Pluto, the planet of transformation, which is at the very final degree of Capricorn and finishing up its 16 year story around letting of old systems, structures, and changes in power.
A sextile occurs when two planets or points are sixty degrees apart, and it is an aspect of opportunity. The Sun in Virgo forms a trine to Uranus, the planet of surprise and brilliance. This occurs when two planets are 120 degrees apart, and this is a flow of energy between the two.
 
The two planets also form trine to Pluto, the planet of transformation, and this is causes what is known as Grand Trine and is a triangle. This is a very lucky and inspiring configuration and is a Grand Trine in Earth, which brings some opportunity to bring to earth what we are channeling intuitively. The Moon in Pisces opposes the Sun and forms a kite.
 
A Kite occurs when there is a Grand Trine and a fourth planet opposes one of the planets in the Grand Trine as that involves a Grand trine and forms a sextile (60 apart) from the other two configured planets, which in this case are Neptune and Pluto at the Final degrees of their signs: Pisces and Capricorn. A Kite has a fated element that can bring development and personal growth; albeit, with some tests along the way.
 
This Lunar Eclipse in Pisces is between Saturn, the planet of responsibility, accountability, and structure; as well as Neptune, the planet of dissolution, confusion, and spirituality. The Moon met up with Saturn, planet of limitations and restrictions, at 6:11 am EDT and this underscores the lessons and themes we need to heed in order to obtain the dream.
 
Mercury, the planet of information, opposes Saturn, planet of reality, on September 18th, 2024 at 4:50 am EDT. There is a sobering affect to an Eclipse, where people can really lose a sense of reality; yet many will try to escape with The Moon conjunct Neptune and square Jupiter. Remember to really heed the messages now. Many truths will be brought to light. I wish you much luck.

New Moon in Leo: Turn on your Love Light!

New Moon in Leo: Turn on your Love Light!

Hi, Everyone,

There is so much to discuss, but I will break it down in parts.  I have to say in advance that I have been swimming against, with, and towards Neptune far more than I have liked in these past few months, and I am wading in a pool of vulnerability and depression to which many can relate. If my writing is not linear, it is because I am channeling, drowning in, and feeling the Astrology — especially Neptune at the final degree of the Zodiac.

A New Moon in Leo occurred today at 7:13 am est at 12 degrees and 34 minutes of the Fixed fire sign of Leo.  Look to where that falls in your chart, and that is where you are experiencing a sense of new beginnings.  The sun is in its dignity while in Leo, and this is a much needed New Moon in a time where most people feel lost, scared, or uncertain. 

On July 31, 2024, The Sun in Leo formed a beautiful angle to the North Node in Aries. This was a message to connect with others and to have courage to be yourself and not to forget your passions and what makes you shine.  On August 1 and August 2, 2024, Mars in Gemini formed a postive angle to the North North Node and urged us all to take action to network, align with what you are trying to create, and to have a sense of purpose when things seem so chaotic. 

Much more chaos ensues in the month of August; as well as creativity and new solutions. This is a cosmic nudge for all to have courage to fight for what you want, learn, and not give up on your passions. When I was little, I did not like to eat a lot of my food and could be a bit picky.  My mother would laugh and lightly tap my plate with a fork both to rile me up and to get me to eat. The Universe is tapping your plate, and it is time to eat up the opportunities that emerge in this cosmic kaleidoscope of change. 

This New Moon is quite something. Notice that I have not yet mentioned the big Mercury retrograde.  Let’s break down the facts.  The New Moon occurred at 12 degrees and 34 minutes of Leo. Think back to January 31, 2018 when there was a Total Lunar Eclipse at 11 degrees and 37 minutes of Leo.  
 
This New Moon defaults back to that time, and it is an opportunity to shine a light on you!  It is a chance to have optimism in creating new things and bringing love and light to your life. Let the New Moon special shine an ever lovin’ light on you!

The New Moon in Leo has it Sun in its dignity, and it’s got the moves like Jagger.  The Sun absolutely loves being in the sign of Leo and is unstoppable.  We should all take a page from that now with Neptune at the Fixed Star of Scheat, where we could all be drowning in sorrow if we do not lean towards the light of Leo.  

I cast the chart for the New Moon for Washington DC, and the Sun and Moon in Leo fall in the 12th house of spirituality, creatitivity, compassion, and rest. The Sun forms a helpful trine to the North Node in Aries, although it is separating, and it says to reach for the stars.  The Sun and Moon are also inconjunct Saturn in Pisces, which means there is readjustment needed to achieve the dream. Neptune in Pisces ultimately is the dream. Perhaps, you have been dimming your own light and losing sight of your own value. 

Venus changes signs later at 10:23 pm EST and ingresses into the Mutable earth sign of Virgo, where she will nitpick, finetune, and organize through August 29, 2024.  In the New Moon chart, Venus is at the Fixed Star known as Regulus and is at the Final degree of Leo, where she is hot and on fire! Regulus is the King maker and the Queen maker, and it is a point where she rise in position in life.

Venus at Regulus is a lovely place to be; but, it is also inconjunct Neptune in Pisces, which is at that very challenging Fixed Star known as Scheat. Scheat is  connected with self-undoing, addiction, and drowning. It is imperative that we all pay attention to Neptune at the final degree of the Zodiac, where he will be on and off through early 2026 because there is a huge mental health epidemic. 

Scheat is a Fixed Star at 28 degrees and 29 degrees of Pisces. It is connected with suicide, addiction, and drowning. Kurt Cobain, who was a Pisces took his life when Saturn was last in Pisces and had his natal Saturn at the Fixed Star of Scheat. Saturn is the planet of responsibility, restrictions, and karmic lessons. 

Marilyn Monroe also suffered from addiction problems. She had Uranus, the planet of chaos, disruption, and originality at Scheat.  Drew Barrymore, who has conquered her addiction issues, is a Pisces with her Venus, at Scheat. Venus is the planet of love, creativity, and relationships, she has worked with the creative side both in her acting and in her love of makeup and glamour. I know two people in particular, who have their Sun at Scheat, and they are natural wonders in their kindness, generosity, and endless creativity. There is incredible wisdom at the end of the Zodiac, but there is also so much pain from the lessons endured. 

Neptune is in its dignity in Pisces and is also the higher Octave of Venus.  Venus in Leo at the Royal Fixed Star of Regulus wants you to glow, yet there is something that needs soothing. There is healing needed around love, self value, loss, and the heart chakra.

Venus is also separating from her duel with Uranus in Taurus, which is at yet another Fixed Star known as Algol. The Fixed Star of Algol is at 26 degrees of Taurus and is connected both literally and metaphorically with losing one head.  A lot of people are losing their cool, their sanity, and their stability.  A New Moon in Leo is just what we need to bring hope with all of these Fixed Stars so prevalent in the sky — particularly Scheat and Algol, which are both very difficult. 

Venus enters Virgo at 10:23 pm EST and brings more energy to the Mercury in Retrograde story, as this is yet another planet ruled by Mercury.   Mercury rules the mutable signs of Gemini and Virgo. Venus is in her Fall position in Virgo, as she rules the opposite sign of Pisces.  She is critical while in Virgo, but she is excellent for paying attention to the details, finecombing your work and projects, and cleaning up the mess. Venus helps with this celestial mess through August 29, 2024 when she enters her home sign of Libra and puts on the charm. 

Venus in Virgo helps with the Mercury Retrograde journey because if you really apply yourself to improving the issues that surface during this very reflective retrograde, you can build momentum with whatever you strive to achieve.

Mars, the planet of action, is transiting in the Mercury driven sign of Gemini through September 4, 2024. Mars is how you get things done, how you work, and how you move ahead.   Jupiter, the planet of expansion and abundance, transits in Gemini through June 9, 2024.  This means that as of late tonight/early tomorrow, there will be four planets transiting in signs ruled by Mercury, and this is a HUGE time for reassessing what works, and what does not.

This is a time to reflect, hear from ghosts from the past, and reevaluate what no longer serves you.  With Mars in Gemini, there is the chance that you may do things twice, or you may have more than one option. Gemini is like the Lovers card in Tarot, in which there are choices.  You may think over those choices you have made and do things in a different way. 

Mercury retrogrades on 8/4/24 at 9:56 pm PST and on 8/5/24 at 12:56 am EST at 4 degrees and 7 minutes of Virgo.  When Mercury retrogrades in its domicile, it intensifies the energy of Mercury retrograde and brings home the issues in a much more potent way. 

This is an invitation to reconsider, reorganize, revise, remake, and return to habits, work, and routines that gives your life purpose.  Venus is also a personal planet and adds to the theme of paying attention to the details, which has been so hard with both Saturn and Neptune copresent in Pisces, where we can float all over the place. 

We are building up to a very big mutable T square that occurs the second half of August, and in which we have one of three challenging squares from Jupiter (expansion) in Gemini to Saturn (restrictions) in Pisces. How do we expand but stay centered?  How do we structure dreams when we feel lost without a captain? The North Node in Aries wants YOU to be the captain.   We are about to find out how to steer this journey of self discovery in unprecedented times. 

Mercury ingresses back into the Fixed fire sign of Leo on August 14th, which is the day that Mars meets up with Jupiter.  Mars is the planet of drive, ambition, war, aggression, and passion.  Jupiter magnifies whatever it touches. This is an aspect of good fortune, but it could also expand the aggressive energy so potent in the world.  When Mercury returns to Leo, it is time to rediscover what makes your heart happy, how you can emanate love, and how you can reconnect to your passions.

Mercury stations direct on August 28, 2024 at 21 degrees and 34 minutes of Leo. Mercury initially entered its shadow when it reached 21 degrees of Leo on July 17, 2024.   Mercury remains in Leo until it ingresses back into the sign of Virgo on September 9, 2024, where it will remain through September 26, 2024.  Mercury retrogrades in Virgo, which is a time to perfect things through your work, your searching within, and focusing on your health and habits.  Mercury retrograde in Leo is a time to readdress how you sparkle, and you know you do!  

This a New Moon that bursts with possibility while in the very confident sign of Leo; but, there are adjustments needed and much reflection ahead.  This is like Spring cleaning when it is 100 degrees outside, but it is also your time to take good care and prepare for a lot of movement and action later in the month, which I will cover more in depth soon. The New Moon is an excellent time to write down intentions, do a manifesting ritual on your own or with people you love, and to do the Law of Abundance.

To do the Law of Abundance, take a blank check and date it for August 4, 2024. Where it says, “Pay to the order of, ” write down your full name.  Leave the small numeric box empty. On the following line, where you normally print out the amount, write, “Paid in Full.” Where you normally sign your name at the bottom of the check, print, “The Law of Abundance.” I wish you much luck in this cosmic karmic review!

Full Moon in Capricorn: Swami’s song

Full Moon in Capricorn: Swami’s song

Hi, Everyone,
This is a tough one to write, and I never write this late in the day; but, it is one I need to do. This is like Full Moon in Capricorn, where you have a sense of responsibility, and I cannot let this one down in spite of my weariness. Let me break down the energy to the best of my ability. Neptune, the planet of dreams, imagination, the unconscious mind, escapism, delusion, deception, and creativity, entered the final degree of the Zodiac, which is at 29 degrees of Pisces, where it will transit through 9/4/24 and on and off next year.
This is a very tough degree of the Zodiac, where people feel lost, confused, exchasted, drained, unsure, and without a compass. Many, who have been sick for a while and barely hanging on to this life will choose to exit. There will be mass exits. For those struggling with mental health and addiction, this is a very troublesome transit, where they may want to tune out much more. Check in with people that are struggling. This is very sensitive energy indeed, and some will need extra care.
We have our upcoming second Full Moon in Capricorn that takes place on July 21, 2024 at 6:17 am EST at 29 degrees and 9 minutes of Capricorn. This is a WOPPER of a FULL MOON, and I feel it through every pore of my being. How about you?
The First Full Moon occurred on June 21, 2024 at 1 degree and 9 minutes of Capricorn, and that Full Moon called back to when Pluto was transiting at 1 degree of Capricorn early in the Pluto in Capricorn story that began in 2008/2009. When Pluto intially entered Capricorn, it was the time of the housing crisis, the Bernie Madoff scandal, and permanent change of Financial institutions and the corporate world.
Pluto is the higher Octave of Mars, and it packs a hell of a punch. Pluto is the planet of death, rebirth, destruction, renewal, empowerment, misuse of money and manipulation, big finances, and other people’s money and joint resources.
When Pluto initially entered Capricorn in 2008 and 2009, Pluto transited at the world axis, which hits people on the world stage, as well as the entire collective. When Pluto transited at 0 degrees of Capricorn on and off in 2008 and 2009, the world experienced a Global Financial crisis. Brokerage firms like Lehman Brothers, Bear Sterns, and Merrill Lynch got hit massively, and there was a huge restructuring in the economy. More of an accountability of right and wrong, and a big recession to follow.
For the Cardinal signs, 0 and 22 degree are at the world axis and are a degree of fame. The Cardinal signs are Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn. The Fixed signs are 15 degrees of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Capricorn. The Mutable signs are at 7 degrees of Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces. If a person has a lot of planets or angles at the world point, they can be well known or even famous. If outer planets transit at the world point, big world events occur.
Saturn is the cosmic architect of the Zodiac, that works from a blueprint to help you assemble your plans and goals with hard work, focus, and determination. Saturn is the planet of karma, responsibility, restrictions, structures, limitations, integrity, time, and goals. Saturn rules the sign of Capricorn in Modern Astrology and Aquarius in Ancient Astrololgy. Saturn transited in the Cardinal earth sign of Capricorn from December 20, 2017 through December 17, 2020. Saturn represents our karmic lessons, challenges, a sense of feeling pressured, how we can mature and anchor our achievements, and we how we develop integrity.
Saturn met up with Pluto, the cosmic compost, on January 12, 2020 at the world point at 22 degrees of the Cardinal earth sign of Capricorn. This cosmic cycle happens approximately every 37 years when the two traditional Malefics — Saturn and Pluto — meet up together for a whole new story. This round in January of 2020, the two malefics met up at the world degree at 22 degrees of Capricorn and brought down permant change in structures in our world, mass death of life, old businesses, and ways of doing things. The world will never be the same again. This cycle also changed the way we do business forever.
Pluto, the planet of transformation, initially entered the Fixed air sign of Aquarius, on March 23, 2023 through June 13, 2023 and returned to the sign of Aquarius on January 20, 2024. Pluto, the planet of demolition and regeneration, retrograded on May 2, 2024 at 2 degrees of Aquarius and will have its final duel in Capricorn when it returns to this sign on September 1, 2024 through November 19, 2024.
Pluto transits this fall at an anaretic degree, which is the final degree of a sign. There are 30 degrees to a sign; 0 is the first degree, and 29 is the final degree of that sign. The anaretic or final degre of a sign help us to master the lessons of that sign, and this will be an intense round!
Capricorn reprents people in power, authority and leadership. It is the teacher, the CEO, the CFO, world leaders, and people that goven the law. The sign of Capricorn is ruled by Saturn, which is the planet of integrity. With Pluto transiting at this final degree, there will be many that will be held accountable both on the world stage and in our own personal lives, we are all being held accountable in some area. There will be big changes in corporate and government structures, layoffs, and a lot of unhealed pain dug up on a mass level: Collateral damage from centuries and years of unhealed trauma.
 
An anaretic degree is a degree of completion, endings, and mastery. Pluto transits returns to 29 degrees and 59 minutes of Capricorn on September 1, 2024, stations direct on October 12,2024 at 29 degrees and 38 minutes of Capricorn and returns to the fixed and futuristic sign of Aquarius, where it’s going tour with Keith Richards on and off through January of 2044. Pluto is a planet that teaches you that there are things you can control, and there are many things that you cannot. There is a collective release and letting go in all of this.
This weekend, we build up to this dramatic and powerful Full Moon. Mars, the ruler of Aries and co-ruler of Scorpio, enters the Mutable air sign of Gemini on July 20, 2024 at 4:43 pm EST, where it transits through September 4, 2024. When Mars transits in Gemini, this is an excellent time for multitasking and get a lot of chores completed in a short period of time. It is excellent for engaging and working with local businesses and doing events, networking, taking and teaching workshops, learning, speaking at events, and doing a lot in little bursts of time. It certainly changes the scene from Mars transiting in its detriment while sluggish in Taurus, where it is wrapping up as I write.
The Full Moon is the biggest one of the year aside from the Eclipses because it is the second Full Moon in Capricorn this summer. More importantly, it is a foreshadowing of Pluto’s final transit in Capricorn, in which many things will come down in the world and in our lives. What do you need to purge? What have you not faced?
While Neptune is in LA LA land (where I will be next month!), this second Full Moon in Capricorn asks what are you made of, and what are you going to do about it? This Full Moon occurs at 6:17 pm EST at 29 degrees and 9 minutes of Capricorn. In the Full Moon chart, the Full Moon in Capricorn is at an anaretic degree urging you and demanding you to wrap up the lessons of the past 15/16 years when Pluto initially entered Capricorn.
 
This Full Moon is a the final degree of Capricorn; but, it is also conjunct Pluto, the planet of endings and beginings, which is at 0 degrees and 54 minutes of Aquarius. You need to purge the past to make room for Pluto in Aquarius, which centers on embracing the future and limitless possibilities for genius, invention, and reinvention. On the world stage, we can expect this to express itself politically throughout the world, and there could be various shifts occuring.
This is deeper, though. What or to whom are you saying goodbye? For me, it is my 97 year old Swami. I never write late in the afternoon or early at night because I feel so much more inspired in the morning with my caffeine and a stream of light pouring through my half drawn curtains.
I said my official goodbye to Swami last Monday, but his strong Taurus constitution keeps going a little while longer. We know that it is not much longer. This is painful to write, as my best friend will lose one of his best friends in the world. It is time for him to release him even though it is really painful.
When I saw Swami, he poked me in the hard in the side with that strong Bull consistution and said, “Eat this for you? If I eat, I’m going to eat for me. Have some compassion!” Swami is right. He has lived and earned his right to leave. He is a creative genius and embodies many qualities both of Neptune and Pisces. Undoubtededly, he has Pisces rising, with his absent minded Professor demeanor, flat feet, and prescient sense of musical genius. He is also psychic.
It is for me to face Pluto and let go. It is out of my control. He is not a tragedy; he has lived a long life. But, it is still one of my favorite people I will ever, ever meet, and I have to say goodbye. This is not about me, and that is why I need to relent and give up control. This Full Moon chart is conjunct Pluto, which means for some of us that we really need to let go of control. We need to accept. 
 
There will also be information uncovered that will be very emotional; as well as unexected. Mercury, the planet of information, later forms a challenging influence to Uranus, which is the modern ruler of Aquarius. Uranus is also the higher Octave of Mercury. This is great energy for brainstorming on your feet; but, it will involve twists and turns, changes in plans, big shocks and surprises. Expect the unexpeced. There will be major breakups, layoffs, endings, and CHANGE will this second Full Moon in Capricorn aligned with Pluto.
This is a preview of Pluto’s Last Dance in Capricorn. Not for the light hearted, but the truth is you need to face what lies ahead of you. You can tune out like I have for the past few weeks with a bad back and in pre-emptive mourning, or you can tap into magic and do things you need to do, as Capricorn focuses on your responsibilities. What do you need to accomplish?
Do you want to lie on your back and feel sorry for yourself before the energy gets more chaotic in August, or do you want to focus on what you need to get done?! I would hope the latter because it has been a miserable few weeks for this member of the Neptune Dodgers. I kept hitting strikes one after the other.
This chart has magic, and that is why I do this for Swami. Swami is a genius, and he is a visionary. Music is Swami’s elixir. Venus, the planet of love, forms a beautiful and enabling aspect to Jupiter, the Grand Benefic, planet of expansion, hope, and optimism. These are the two benefics in harmony, which reminds me of my Taurus Swami cutting up melon and enjoying every last bite as music gushes out of every corner of his place and a copy of the Sunday New York Times spread out around his living room in different areas of the room.
This aspect says that although there is no denying the reality and truth, why not enjoy nature’s bites and realize that some of these tough times will pass. Heed the lessons, but there are solutions with Mars in Gemini, as there are different routes and lanes in which you can now take action.
The Moon is part of a Grand Trine, which is a triangle in which each point is 120 degrees from the other. The Moon in Capricorn forms a beautiful trine to Uranus, the planet of breakthroughs and enlightenment, and the two trine Juno, which is an asteroid that represents partnerships. Getting work done by partnering with people smarter than you is always a good idea to learn and elevate your game!
Venus and Jupiter dance in harmony at 4:43 pm EST, which is a helpful energy after the fated meetup with Pluto and the Full Moon in Capricorn. Mercury and Uranus spar at 6:21 pm EST, which is exciting, chaotic, thrilling, and disruptive on the road. It could be a great exchange of ideas and add to the creativitity; but, shocking news will come out in some way this weekend. The Full Moon gets a supportive sextile from Neptune, which is soothing and helps you to connect the dream to the goal. However, Neptune is absolutely exhausted, and it is hard to focus with this heaviness. There is a need to sleep and sleep more.
The Sun in Cancer is all about emotions and feelings — processing the informations through how you feel about it. The Sun remains in Cancer through July 22, 2024; but, before it leaves, it forms a beautiful trine to Neptune at 11:25 pm EST. Soon after, Mars in Gemini forms a beautiful angle to Pluto in Aquarius, and this trine helps to facillitate empowering yourself through ascending through intellectual aviation. This aspect occurs at 11:48 pm PST and on July 23, 2024 at 2:48 am EST. There are options and choices, and it is time to face the right choices that propel your forward.

Summer Solstice: Stand still in LOVE revisited

Summer Solstice: Stand still in LOVE revisited

Hi, Everyone,

The Solstice occurs today at 4:51 pm EST, which is one of two points on the Ecliptic when the Sun is farthest North or South.  In the Northern Hemisphere, the Summer Solstice occurs when the Sun reaches its maximum height and stops to stand still to assess what we have built and experienced since the last Solstice in December, and the promise of the next six months ahead of us.

The Solstice chart represents what the summer season holds for us and is a time to honor the energy, and what you want to accomplish.  There has been a huge Gemini influence recently, and it has felt too scattered, rushed, and overwhelming.   The New Moon in Gemini had five points in the sign of Gemini, and your mind can go in many different directions and have trouble focusing.  It felt almost like Mercury in Retrograde in that there were so many conversations, but who was really listening?  

On June 17th, two personal planets segued into Cancer from Gemini and slowed the pace for all of us, so that we can recharge.  The theme is more centered on home,family, comfort, self care,soul nurturing, and nourishment. The theme of Gemini is learning, socializing, connecting, networking, and getting involved with local environemnt.  Cancer is much more concerned with self care, enjoying the pleasures of home, curling up with a good book under the covers, enjoying a nourishing meal with people you love, and resting and binging on a good series on Netflix. 

Mercury, the planet of communication, learning, thoughts, and ideas, left the sign of Gemini on June 17th and will tour in the emotional water sign of Cancer through July 2, 2024. Venus, the planet of love, beauty, and value, also entered the Cardinal water sign of Cancer on June 17th and will hang out in this sign through July 11, 2024. Jupiter, the Grand Benefic, transits in Gemini through June of next year; therefore, we call continue to expand through learning, connecting, socializing, and getting involved locally.  However, you should not feel pressured if you do not feel like doing it this weekend or in the next week.  This is a time to focus on self.

This morning, the Sun in Gemini made a challenging square to Neptune in Pisces, at 2:12 am EST at 29 degrees and 53 minutes of Gemini and Pisces.  This is our introduction to the Solstice because the Solstice does not occur until 4:51 pm EST when the Sun enters the Cardinal water sign of Cancer and officially begins Cancer season; as well as the Summer season in the Northern Hemisphere, and the winter season in the Southern Hemisphere.  With the Sun squaring Neptune at the very last degree of the Zodiac, there is a pronounced sense of loss, feeling lost, vulnerability, dreams, and illusion.

Although this aspect is ephemeral, its message is impactful.  We are navigating very uncertain times in which our intellect and intutition are our biggest assets, yet we we will often be in conflict with both.  We need to let it flow, trust, and learn. Trust no one, but do not become jaded.  What a fine line!

The Solstice occurs at 4:51 EST when the Sun enters the Cardinal water sign of Cancer. I cast the chart for Washington DC, and the chart has Scorpio rising, which has Mars and Pluto as the rulers of the chart. There are three points in the Cancer, which urge you to rest, recharge, and do things that bring you comfort. These three points in Cancer fall in the eighth house, which is the Scorpio house of death, rebirth, wounds, healing, and transformation.  Healing is a huge focus in this Solstice chart.  The Sun represents ego and identity; Venus represents how you partner, what you love and value; Mercury, represents how you communicate. 

 In the Solstice chart, my eyes dart right to the Pisces section, in which Saturn is slowing down and is now at 19 degrees. Saturn retrogrades on June 29, 2024 at 19 degrees and 26 minutes of the mutable water sign of Pisces.  We will feel it five days before and five days afterwards.  When an outer planet stations, it intensifies the energy of the planet.  Saturn represents rules, regulations, authority figures, structures, limits, and karma.  You could feel pressured and feel you like are not working hard enough to structure the dream, which is Saturn in Pisces.  Saturn is about working with boundaries; Pisces is completely boundless. It is kind an irony, but think of it as trying to be patient to work hard to anchor and structure the dream.

There are five points in water in this Solstice chart, which says that logic is not where it’s at right now — whether you like that or not.  Just as Saturn slows down and retrogrades at the end of the month, Neptune transits at the final degree of the Zodiac!  Yeah, you heard me right! Not only is only transiting at the final degree of Pisces, this is the final degree of the entire Zodiac that encompasses all of the wisdom, hardships, trials, tribulations, and lessons of all of the preceding signs.  Neptune at 29 degrees of Pisces is a Fixed Star known as Scheat, which is 28 to 29 degrees of Pisces. It is connected with suicide and self-undoing. It is a very difficult placement of the Zodiac.

Many people that have Scheat in their charts are natural empaths, artists, and creative people. Not everyone that has that in their chart self destructs, but it is a quality that is undeniably associated with Scheat.  Therefore, be mindful of people around you that struggle with depression and addiction.  Check in on yourself.  If anything, the Universe is lining up to bring new opportunities and choices to create, innovate, and heal; but, there has been so much loss and time in this process. Neptune is tired, and so are we.

We will definitely feel the buildup of the Neptune station at the end of June and in early July.  Remember that the Sun squared Neptune on the day of the Solstice at 2:12 am EST and reminded us all of our vulnerability, fraility, creatity, magic, dreams, and empathy.  We are human.  With all of the AI and Pluto in Aquarius themes, it is critical to go back to the soul.  Saturn and Neptune will NOT let you forget that fact.

There is a Full Moon on June 21, 2024 at 9:08 pm EST at 1 degree and 7 minutes of the Cardinal earth sign of Capricorn. This energy is so different from the Cancer energy that wants to relax and take care of home and self.  The sign of Capricorn is so goal oriented, and we are dealing with the dichotomy of needing to get things done and needing to find more balance.  Too many gadgets going off, and not enough focus.  When are the personal planets were transiting in Gemini, I find myself write four emails to myself within ten minutes of tasks I needed to do the following day.  Did any get accomplished? I don’t even remember how it felt to see so many email reminders and realized that was a message that I do not feel balanced enough.

This Full Moon is the first of two Full Moons in Capricorn. In the Full Moon on June 21st, the moon is by the world point, which is at 0 degrees of the Cardinal signs: Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricron. It speaks back to when Pluto initially entered Capricorn in 2008/2009 when the Financial Collapse occurred.

The second Full Moon in Capricorn occurs on July 21, 2024 and will be at 29 degrees and 9 minutes of Capricorn. The ruler of Capricorn is Saturn, which has slowed down for all of us to process what we have been working on since Saturn initially entered Pisces on March 7, 2023.  Saturn rules Capricorn in modern Astrology, where it is in full command.  It is quite another story in Pisces, but we are all trying to anchor a dream, which may feel slippery. The second Full Moon in Capricorn is very significant because Pluto will dip back into Capricorn from September 1 through November 19, 2024 at the very last degree of Capricorn, which is 29 degrees. This finalizes the Pluto in Capricorn story that began officially on January 27, 2008 when Pluto initially entered Capricorn! 

This second half of the year says goodbye to a lot of things that have not yet released. Remember that Pluto is still newly in the sign of Aquarius, where it will be for the next two decades.  We are letting go out of outdated systems and ways of doing things.  We are birthing a whole new society and world. 

With five points in water in the Solstice and Full Moon charts, the theme is more on developing your intuition, manifesting, dreaming, and love.  Chiron, the wounded healer,  transits at 23 degrees of the Cardinal Fire sign of Aries, which is by the world point and sets off the legendary Saturn/Pluto conjunction that changed the world forever on January 12, 2020.  This speaks to healing. 

Chiron was exactly conjunct the Total Solar Eclipse in Aries on April 8, 2024.  All of these points in water urge you to slow down and take care of self.  The two full moons in Capricorn remind you that we are all letting go of an era, and that our goals are still as important; but, your mental health is, too.  #astrology #solstice #summersolstice #horoscope #zodiac

New Moon in Taurus: Time to pick your chosen fruits!

New Moon in Taurus: Time to pick your chosen fruits!

Hi, Everyone,

It continues to be wild times.  Jupiter and Uranus met up at 21 degrees and 50 minutes of the Fixed earth sign of Taurus on 4/20/24 and initiated a new cycle of abundance, expansion, freedom; as well, as revolution, protests, chaos, surprise, and the unexpected.  Before we dive into the magic of this month, it is is imperative to take inventory of recent events.

Eclipses occur every six months, and they are like Full Moons and New Moons on steroids.  Eclipses are very similar in energy to the planet Uranus: They can bring earthquakes and natural disasters, unexpected and shocking news, they can wake you up to see things in a whole other way, and they can liberate you from something which has been building for a while.  Eclipses can also bring out-of-the-blue opportunities, which can be phenomenal — whether it be a new job offer, an opportunity to buy or sell a home, a new relationship, an announcement of an engagement or a birth, or a new work or social connection.  The ancients feared Eclipses to be ominous, but I have seen them to have amazing opportunities, as well.

The biggest Eclipse of the year and of the next couple of years was the Total Solar Eclipse that occurred on April 8, 2024 at 19 degrees of Aries and was exactly conjunct Chiron, the wounded healer.  In that Eclipse chart, there was a big emphasis to have courage to face the wounds and to fight for yourself and move ahead in tentative times.  Chiron represents deeply embedded wounds, and it is important to address those wounds. 

Jupiter met up with Uranus for the first time since 1/02/2011, and they formed a new thirteen year story around breakthroughs, ingenuity, invention, networking, rebellion, chaos, and protest.  Jupiter represents how we educate, and it represents universities — among other things.  Uranus is the modern ruler of Aquarius, and it is the iconoclastic planet.  Jupiter expands whatever it touches, and this expands the protests, the anger, and disruption that is rampant in the world. 

The wars are escalating with all of this Mars driven energy: The recent Total Solar Eclipse in Aries that was exactly conjunct Chiron, the wounded healer; Mercury’s three time dance with Chiron, the wounded healer, in Aries, which addresses heavy and deep seated wounds; and Mars now transits in its home sign of Aries, where it is very effective. It is also willing to go to war and fight.

Jupiter and Uranus met up together to bring innovation and new breakthroughs; but, there are also breakdowns.  Although Mercury is in its final meetup with Chiron today, it will clear its shadow on May 13, 2024 and will enter the Fixed earth sign of Taurus on May 15, 2024.  Time to summon the courage to face those wounds and take a deep look within yourself. 

Pluto retrograded on May 2, 2024 at 2 degrees and 6 minutes of the sign of Aquarius, and that heightens the emotional intensity, facing the wounds that are uncomfortable, mourning, loss, releasing, letting go, rebirthing, starting over, and transmuting.

Venus now transits in its home sign of Taurus, where it is so abundandant, fertile, and creative. It formed a challenging square to Pluto on May 1, 2024 — just a day before the Pluto station. This reinforces the message to release what holds you back from picking your chosen fruits.  Venus loves being in Taurus!  Although Mars is very militatant and aggressive while in Aries, it is in its home sign and is excellent for getting things done.  The new thirteen year story of Jupiter/Uranus in Taurus is about expanding through boundless resources that are within you.  Choose to be a deliberate creator and innovate a new future while you heal.   

Jupiter, the planet of good fortune, abundance, expansion, the higher mind, travel, and life experience transits in the Venus ruled sign of Taurus for just a while longer, as it will ingress into the mutable air sign of Gemini on May 25, 2024, where it will expand in SO many directions through June of next year. 

Before we get to this lovely New Moon in Taurus, let us consider our options and tools. Think of these factors: The Sun is currently in the sign of of Taurus, where it shines through being creative and finding value in beauty and nature;  Venus is in its home sign of Taurus, where is it is the creator and loves indulging all of the five senses; Mars is in its home sign, where it is the warrior and the pioneer;  Neptune is in its home sign in Pisces, which it rules in modern Astrology and represents compassion, the dream, imagionation, and magic. 

The Pluto station still lingers, as we feel it through May 7, 2024.  This is again about addressing what feels painful to face, but this is where you face those truths in order to heal and empower yourself. This is about purging what keeps you from transcending. Three planets are currently transiting in their home sign, which facilitates getting things done and this is an excellent time for you to take steps to get things done.

Although Pluto is currently retrograde, all of the other planets are currently direct; three planets are in the sign which they rule.  Time to get it moving after this creative, exciting, and eye opening pairing of Jupiter and Uranus, which introduces a new thirteen year chapter of expanding, opening doors, innovating and creating in the highly abundant sign of Taurus.  Choose the fruits of your labors when they are ripe and seize opportunities that come your way now!

The other thing that is very significant is that Neptune, the modern ruler of the Mutable water sign of Pisces and the planet of dreams, the unconscious mind, imagination, intuition, empathy, ascetic love, music, film, fantasy, smoke and mirrors, delusion, deception, and self undoing, transits at the very final degree of Pisces.  Let me make myself clear. This is the FINAL degree of the Zodiac, and this is a really big deal.  

Neptune takes approximately 165 years to transit, and it is now transiting approximately where it was in 1860, which was year that Lincoln was elected President.  Saturn and Neptune are now copresent in the sign of Pisces, which has not happened since the mid 1800s.  They were copresent in the sign of Pisces in 1848 when “The Communist Manifesto” was published.  This was also the beginning of The Gold Rush when many people charged ahead in hopes of dreams, money, and golden paradise.

Many people were chasing paper moons intead.  This is a time to pursue dreams, but keep your head about you. In fact, dreams are the most popular dish on the menu; but, have them with a cup of coffee so that you can stay awake and pick that fruit you have been planting!

Neptune transits at 29 degrees of Pisces from May 4, 2024 through September 3, 2024 and reaches this degree on and off again from March 4, 2025 through February 15, 2026.  The final degrees of Pisces represent the final degrees of the Zodiac and are the composite of all of the karmic lessons of the preceding signs.  28 and 29 degrees of Pisces are associated with a difficult Fixed Star known as Scheat, which is a Fixed star associated with drowning, suicide, self undoing, and being lost at sea. 

I find Scheat to be strong in the chart of Empaths and have noticed this a lot in the past couple of years in doing many different charts through the Pandemic, so this does not mean that everyone that has Scheat is destined to a life of doom.   In face, perhaps their path is to heal. Many seem to have tremendous artist ability as well. 

I do feel in terms of Mundane Astrology, Neptune will be both magical and uncertain with Neptune at the final degree of the Zodiac.  A huge emphasis on the mental crisis is in order and is being scripted for us all to pay attention.  It is critical that with both Saturn and Neptune transiting in the sign of dreams, intuition, illusions, addiction, and depression, that we all heed the lessons of Neptune at the final degree of Pisces where it is right now.  Many people will feel like they cannot reinvent themselves, which is not true.  With Pluto, the planet of transformation, newly in Aquarius, this is a time for invention, reinvention, and community. 

Neptune at 29 degrees of Pisces brings a light to mental health, and it is important to check in with yourself and others that suffer with addiction and depression. The two get close in the sky next Spring at the degrees of Scheat and meet up directly at the very first degree of Aries and at the world point in February of 2026.  A new approach to healing, being imaginative, and connecting to meditation, manifestation, and believing that you are the source of your own inner glimmer.

The New Moon in Taurus reminds you to be a creator.  The Jupiter/Uranus conjunction will occur in Taurus again in a very long time, but this is time to seize those fruits, as that new thirteen year chapter is still on the first page, and you are writing down your intentions with this New Moon of natural abundance. 

This is an excellent time to get your crystals out and have them by your side while you write down your intentions. Given the strong Piscean energy, I carry Tiger’s eye with me all of the time right now in order to ground.  I always have some small, loose Pyrite clusters in my bag because they are my favorite manifesting stones. For me personally, they always bring abundance.  I have a big Big Pyrite Sphere that I got a few years ago, and I call it my rock star crystal. I always have it on my desk or beside me on my couch when I work. Whatever it is for you, get your crystals or your chosen cosmic tools. Perhaps they are cinnamon sticks in your wallet to bring sales and sweetness? Be creative.

I am also fixing my balcony and getting my plants/planets in order. I have a feng shui water fountain that is by my plants, and I love it. It reminds me that in this time, we have to go with the flow in many areas where we have to embrace Piscean themes: surrender, suspension of disbelief, belief in magic, spirituality, kindness, and feelings.

We have to tap into faith, love, compassion, creativity, and seize the time we have now while the fruit is good in Taurus season, and four planets transiting right now in the sign of Taurus, which ruled by the planet Venus, which brings creative skills, Nature, values, money, self esteem, possessions, and ways to earn an income.

This will be a way for us to get through this painful time in the world.  I will in no way deny that the Astrology is tough.  As I write this article, Mercury has a third showdown with Chiron, the wounded healer, which was so pronounced in the Solar Eclipse.  A third opportunity to address the wounds and to reconsider how you can heal yourself.

The New Moon occurs in the Fixed earth sign of Taurus on May 7, 2024 at 11:22 PM EDT at 18 degrees and 2 minutes of the the Venus ruled sign of Taurus.  The New Moon is a time to plant new seeds.  Out of the signs of the Zodiac, Taurus is associated with Nature and with the earth.  The Moon is always an opportune time to plant new seeds literally and metaphorically, write down intentions, manifest, meditate, and visualize.  

With three planets in their home sign, this is a time to go for it!  Jupiter and Uranus are still just a few degrees apart from one another in the sign of Taurus until Jupiter leaves Taurus on May 25, 2024 and enters the mutable air sign of Gemini, where it expands through learning, communication, workshops, sales, marketing, small local businesses, your neighborhood, and travel — usually short distance trips.  Great for taking classes.  For now, plant the garden of your dreams and focus on the issues that have surfaced during this intense time, and how you can open new doors through your subconscious mind.

The New Moon is technically conjunct both Uranus and Jupiter, which pronounces the energy of that big conjunction we all experienced.  It encapulates the chaos and the genius inherent in that planetary combination.  Try to liberate yourself from the fears that may surface now with Neptune at the final degree of Pisces and focus on how you can heal.  Jupiter and Neptune are now working harmony, and those are both the ruler of the sign of Pisces.  This is VERY manifesting energy.  Say affirmations, clear out clutter to make room for abundance, engage in guided meditation that connect you to your dreams, chant, work with crystals, burn palo santo, and do anything that connects you to your own individual magic!

The New Moon is an excellent time to do The Law of Abundance.  Date the check for May 7, 2024.  Where it says, “Pay to the order of, write down your full name.  Leave the small numeric box blank. Where you typicall print out the dollar amount, print, “Paid in Full.” At the bottom of your check, where you typically sign your name, print, “The Law of Abundance.” You can also find one to print on the internet.  Mercury and Chiron are conjunct in Aries and are reminding you to be very brave and structure your dreams with self care.

Total Solar Eclipse in Aries wants you to have courage to be you!

Total Solar Eclipse in Aries wants you to have courage to be you!

We are building up to the biggest Eclipse of the year and for next few years until we have a Total Solar Eclipse in Leo on August 12, 2026.  This Total Solar Eclipse in Aries is life changing and invites us to have courage to upgrade our lives with courage, enthusiasm, passion, and action!  More significantly, it encourages us to face old wounds and heal ourselves and others.

We already experienced the Penumbral Lunar Eclipse in Libra on March 25, 2024 at 5 degrees and 7 minutes.  This was a South Node Eclipse — it was fairly faint in that the Earth’s outer shadow falls on the moon’s face. 

The Lunar Eclipse in Libra was not a strong Eclipse; but, in order to have a Lunar or a Solar Eclipse, the Nodes of the moon — otherwise known as the Nodes of Fate — need to be within 18 degrees of the Sun and the Moon.  That is why they are like full moons and New Moons on steroids.  Often fated opportunites, invitations, meetings, departures, breakups, and news come in a way that can change our lives forever.

The Total Solar Eclipse in Libra is more likely that type of an Eclipse, and its effects could linger through the remaining part of the year.  The Nodes of karma are only within four degrees of this New Moon Eclipse, and that means that this is a very fated moon. 

There have been several earthquakes recently: The biggest in Taiwan in 25 years, two eclipses in Japan, and a 4.8 Eclipse in Lebanon, New Jersey, which happens to be the date of the Total Solar Eclipse! My friend in California said to me, “We don’t even get out of bed for a 4.8.” It reminded me of that famous quote from the supermodel Linda Evangelista in the early 90s, where she said, “We don’t get out of bed for less than $10,000 per day.” Okay, now!

This Total Solar Eclipse occurs on April 8, 2024 at 2:21 pm EDT at 19 degrees and 24 minutes of the Cardinal fire sign of Aries and is exactly conjunct Chiron, the wounded healer.  The moon immediately meets up with Chiron at 2:21 pm, and the Sun follows suit at 2:28 pm EDT.  The Sun is strong, exalted, brave, and passionate in the Cardinal and action oriented sign of Aries.

Chiron represents wounds — mostly deep seated wounds that may have been there for years or all of your life.  This is a cosmic opportunity to heal those wounds and to initiate a new you with drive and focus!  Dive in to facing those wounds and feel allow yourself to experience it.  Chiron in Aries is wounds around identity, personal vulnerability, and ego.

The chart has several points in both the signs of Pisces and Aries.  Venus, the planet of love, beauty, relationships, and value, entered the sign of Aries on April 5th, where it will transit through April 29, 2024.  Venus in its detriment there and is on the chase; but, it is also very enthusiastic.  Venus ruled the first Eclipse on March 25, 2024.  That was a South Node Eclipse and a Lunar Eclipse, in which the focus is much more on completion and letting go.  The South Node represents that which no longer seves you.

This is a North Node Eclipse in Aries and wants you to upgrade and supercharge!  It is in Aries where it wants you to believe in yourself and be a peaceful pioneer that wants to make new dreams possible. Mars, which rules the sign of Aries, currently transits in the sign of Pisces, where it is in a pretty passive placement.  There is still a lot of Aries to overcome that, though.

In this Solar Eclipse chart, there are six points in Aries and three points in Pisces.  The North Node of Karma is at 15 degrees of Aries, which is where you are meant to grow and be fearless; The Moon, which is how you get your needs fulfilled; the Sun, which is how you shine; Chiron, the wounded healer; Eris, the goddess of discord, which fights for justice and inequality; Mercury, the planet of the mind, thoughts, and ideas.

There are also three points in Pisces. Saturn, the planet of constriction, restrictions, rules, and karmic lessons, is merely a degree away from Mars, which rules this VERY powerful Total Solar Eclipse in Aries. That takes away a little bit of the steam.  However, it urges you to work harder with the dreams that you feel are unobtainable.  Do some of spiritual practice: yoga, chanting, meditation, participating in sound baths, manifesting on your own or with others, prayer, etc. The Nodes of the moon form a quincunx to Saturn, planet of lessons and strucutre.  It may feel hard to harness what you are meant to do, but this Eclipse opens many doors.

With Eclipses, there are always endings and beginnings.  I have already heard of several layoffs, new job offers, moves, and breakups.  I have heard of some very exciting new opportunities, and dreams that people have decided to conquer. 

Bear in mind that Mercury, planet of perspective, communication, transportation, and commerce, retrograded on April 1, 2024 at 27 degrees and 10 minutes of the Cardinal Fire sign of Aries, which is the sign of this Eclipse. 

It will pass the degree of the Eclipse and Chiron and will station direct on April 25, 2024 at 15 degrees and 59 minutes of Aries, which is the degree of where the North Node is currently transiting in Aries.  This is an excellent opportunity to reset, refresh, renew, redo, reconsider, reapply, and reasses how you can really shine with all of this powerful and inspiring energy.  

Remember to set new intentions with this truly powerful and invigorating New Moon Eclipse in Aries. Remember that Eclipses bring things to light and make us see things in a way that we never have before.  Sometimes, there is shocking news or an event that rattles us and changes our lives forever.  They are also excellent for evolving your consciousness and bringing it to a whole other level.  I have seen major endings on New Moon (Solar) Eclipses, and I have seen major beginnings on Full Moon (Lunar) Eclipses, as they are very unpredictable and are like wild cards. 

You know a lot will happen in a very short period of time, and it can feel pressured and overwhelming.  This is not a time to usher ultimatums unless you are willing that there is potential that you can eclipse that person or situation out of your life.  If there is something big that you have planned, use Mercury retrograde to assess how you can achieve your goals in the best way possible.

The Solar Eclipse is a great time to do write down your intentions and do The Law of Abundance.  Take care a blank check and date it for the day of the Total Solar Eclipse, which is April 8, 2024.  Where it says, “Pay to the order of, write down your full name. Where you typically write down the dollar amount, write down, “Paid in Full.” Leave the numeric box blank. At the bottom of the check where you would normally sign your name, write down, “The Law of Abundance.” I wish you much luck!

Total Solar Eclipse in Aries wants you to have courage to be you!

New Moon in Pisces: Dream the night away!

Hi, Everyone,

It is Pisces season, and it is very important to pay attention to your feelings, intuition, and dreams. At present, there are four points currently transiting in the highly sensitive and psychic sign of Pisces: Saturn, the planet of structure, limitations, and karmic lessons; the Sun, which represents ego and how you shine; Mercury, the planet of communication, thoughts, and information; Neptune, the planet of dreams, imagination, and the subconscious mind.

Mercury, the planet of the mind, changes signs on March 9th, 2024 and enters the Cardinal fire sign of Aries, where it has a fast mind and picks up on ideas quickly. Mercury in Pisces is in its detriment, as it rules the opposite sign of Virgo; therefore, it is dominated by emotions and not logic. Before Mercury changes signs on Saturday, it meets up with Neptune, the planet of dreams, on March 8, 2024 at 10:06 am EST.

Mercury in Pisces is all about how you feel. Your intuition is amplified — particularly with four points in Pisces, which I feel is the most psychic of all of the signs. Saturn in Pisces wants us all to carve a dream and to focus on spirituality and kindness in a broken world. Saturn takes approximately 28.5 to 30 years to transit.

Saturn and Neptune have not been copresent in the sign of Pisces since 1848 when “The Communist Manifesto” was published, and it was just two years after the two planets met up at a closer orb in 1846.

Saturn and Neptune meet up approximately every 35 to 36 years, and the last time they met up was in the Cardinal earth sign of Capricorn when the Berlin Wall came down in November of 1989. Neptune can dissolve, and Saturn represents structures. Saturn was in its own rulership of Capricorn at that time.

It dissolved old government restrictions that brought down communism. The Berlin Wall kept the West from having further influence on the East and was the biggest iconic image of the Cold War in Europe. Saturn can represent rules, regulations, walls, division, and structures. Neptune is the dream, and it can also dissolve and wipe away things. It dissolved an old way of being, and the cosmic combo established and manifested a new dream of home and reunion.

At the moment, communication can feel very confusing, and it could be easy to misinterpret people or be unclear in your own communication. Neptune represents the fog, and it can fog your vision and make you not see things clearly. Yet, at the same time, you could get very vivid dreams that are full of psychic messages. Make sure to keep a journal near your bed to remember your dreams.

This is an excellent time for manifesting, as you really need to connect with the theta part of your brain in order to truly manifest. It is important to visualize and have an idea of what you wish to magnetize, but it is important that you connect with the feelings of what the process would be to obtain your goal, and what it would feel like to have it. The more you meditate, sing, chant, and release that side of your brain, the more you will open it to boundless dreams that Neptune in Pisces does offer. Pisces season truly connects you to your dreams and day dreams.

Although all of this Pisces influence can feel very emotional at times, it can also connect you to magic that you wish to bring into your life! If you are an artist, musician, or you want to do something creative, this is such inspiring energy to create! Your intuition will be speaking to you in so many ways.

We are building up to a New Moon in Pisces, and this is an ideal time to work with your intentions, dreams, goals, and plant new seeds. You may feel really drained and tired with Mercury approaching Neptune, and that energy does linger through the weekend in spite of Mercury leaving the sign of Pisces on March 9th. This is energy that connects you to your feelings, and that makes it prime manifesting material.

Bear in mind that there could be misunderstandings, as Mercury does rule communication, and Neptune can be very misleading. Think twice before you speak and realize that others may not be acting clearly. Mars, the God of war, sparks up with Uranus, the planet of the unexpected, on March 9, 2024 at 5:55 pm EST.

We often feel the influence of both Mars and Uranus cycles before they are exact, as they are already so amped up in energy. Think of the huge global outage with Facebook and Instagram that occurred on March 5, 2024. Uranues rules the internet and social media.

That type of influence could induce accidence, violence, impulsiveness, and arguments. That combined with the confusing Mercury/Neptune influence is a cosmic reminder to slow down in how you communicate, drive, interact with others, dealings in social media, etc. There could be power outages, explosions, and big blowups if not careful. It is great energy for brainstorming, but keep your eyes on the road.

The New Moon in Pisces occurs on March 10, 2024 at 5:00 am EDT at 20 degrees and 17 minutes of the mutable water sign of Pisces. This New Moon is a portent of many things to come. To begin with, this new moon is just a degree from where Saturn, the planet of structure and building blocks, stations retrograde on June 29, 2024 when Saturn retrogrades at 19 degrees and 25 minutes of the mutable water sign of Pisces.

Saturn only gets to 19 degrees of Pisces this year, and it will remain at this degree through July 22nd and close in degree through August 12, 2024. This New Moon gives a preview of the lessons with which we will be all be working; as well as the ways we will building at that time.

I cast the New Moon chart for Washington DC, and it occurs on March 10, 2024 at 20 degrees and 17 minutes of Pisces at 5:00 am EDT, as it is the first day of Daylight Savings. Mercury, messenger to the Gods, enters the Cardinal fire sign of Aries on March 9, 2024 at 11:03 pm EST, where it tours through May 15, 2024. Mercury retrogrades on April 1, 2024 at 27 degrees and 13 minutes of Aries. Mercury in Aries is about being courageous to express yourself and learn new things.

 

There is a stellium of planets in the mutable and fluid water of Pisces in the second house of worth, value, money, income, talents, resources, and creativity. This is a Dreamer’s moon. Saturn is close to the New Moon in Pisces, and it rules the chart with Capricorn ascendant. It reminds you to work with Saturn in Pisces, and it reminds us all of the restrictions of Saturn in Pisces. Yet, on the other hand, Neptune, the modern ruler of Pisces, is also on the other end of this New Moon and is only seven degrees away — urging us all to dream big and boundless! This New Moon says in spite of Saturn’s restrictions, you better work that magic and keep dreaming!

Saturn is the structure, and Neptune is the dream. That is what we are all working with for these next few years with Saturn transiting in the boundless and uncontainable sign of Pisces. Saturn transits in a sign approximately every 28.5 to 30 years; however, it is quite unusual that both Saturn and Neptune are dancing in the sky together, which they have not done while in the sign of Pisces since the mid 1800s.

They will get close together next March in Pisces and travel closely together from June through August of 2025 in the sign of Aries. Saturn urges you to structure and work with your dream while in Pisces. This new Moon is very creative. Mercury is at the world point at the very first degree of Aries and brings and initiating energy. Mercury is still working with Neptune — albeit out of sign. This is an energy where you can really write down and magnetize your thoughts and ideas and begin something new!

The New Moon is always a time to plant new seeds. Write down what you want to manifest. It is also an excellent time to do The Law of Abundance. Take a blank check and date it for the date of the New Moon, which is March 10, 2024. Where it say, “Pay to the order of,” print your full name. On the following line, leave the small numeric box blank.

Where you normally print the amount, print “Paid in Full. Where you normally sign your name at the bottom of the check, print, “Paid in Full.” I wish you the best of luck with this highly psychic, emotional, turbulent, and manifesting New Moon in Pisces! #astrology #horoscope #zodiac
