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

Full Moon in Leo: Activate your heart chakra!

Full Moon in Leo: Activate your heart chakra!

Hi, Everyone,

I feel a full moon rising!  Wowza!  So much Astrology to discuss.  I will cover in bits and write another piece soon to add to this.  At present, I have two little Leo male kittens running around like crazy.  They are from the same litter and are identical from the front; but, I can distinguish  them from the back because one has a broader beam and a crooked tail.  Is that sexist of me?!  They are twins, but would it not be scary if this were true of all, where we are indistinguishable robots that look and act the same.  Robots these are not!

They are flying around, and so are we all!  Two huge transits occur this year.  One HUGE cycle occurred last weekend.  Pluto, the planet of metamorphosis, change, evolution, power, big money, wounds, healing, and transformation, ingressed into the fixed air sign of Aquarius just hours before the Sun ingressed into Aquarius. 

Talk about a New Age of Aquarius!  We all got a preview on December 20, 2020 when Saturn, the planet of karma and structure, met up with Jupiter, the planet of expansion, vision, and growth, at 0 degrees of Aquarius. This ushered in a new era and an early preview of what Pluto will be doing for the next 20 odd years when it finally exits the sign of Aquarius on January 20, 2044.

Major cosmic shifts are occurring right now.  This brings a huge swing in consciousness — both on the individual and collective level.  Pluto digs things up in order to release that which no longer serve us, so that we can transcend.  Aquarius is a sign that represents the future, friendships, groups, and organizations; it also represents indivualism, originality, brilliance, quirkiness, and eccentricity.  Aquarius rules space, aviation, technology, and social media. 

You can see the signs all around you, as AI invades the world.  A woman  from Poland earns $40,000 on paintings “manufactured” by robotic dogs that paint for her like Picasso. Yeah, right.  Art without heart. Is that where we are headed?!?!  If it is, I do not know how much longer I can do this. Spiritual arts without heart. I don’t think so.

Keep in mind that Saturn, the cosmic architect, transits in the mutable water sign of Pisces on and off through February 16, 2026.  Not to mention that Neptune, the modern ruler of Pisces, transits at the final degree of Pisces and of the entire Zodiac beginning on May 4, 2024 and will transit at this degree through September 3, 2024.  That is the fixed star known as Scheat, and it is a degree of the zodiac connected with self undoing. It is connected with imprisonment, drowning, suicide, and great misfortune. 

Neptune rules the imagination, the unconscious mind, the ocean, and dreams.  On the higher level, it represents empathy, love, compassion, and incredible creativity. On the more challenging level, it represents, lost souls, deception, depression, addiction, and a loss of direction.  Pisces is the sign of the mystics, musicians, artists, and empaths. As much as this is the New Age of Aquarius, Neptune’s waters flood the Aquarian soar into the sky, and we must all be VERY aware of that.  We need connection now. We need art with heart. We cannot let technology alienate us further than we already are; but, it will be a huge challenge.  My cats look alike because they are related.  Will we all be zoned out clones of sadness in this time? Or will we come together to create art and spiritual experiences, to sing, to cry, to love, and to help those that cannot help themselves.  

Today is the day of the Full Moon in Leo, which occurred at 12:54 pm EST at 5 degrees and 14 minutes of the fixed fire sign of Leo.  Leo is the sign of self. It represents passion, creativity, and the heart.  This is the first full moon in Leo for the next twenty years that will oppose Pluto.  The fixed signs are feeling this strongly: Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius.  Anyone with planets between 2 and 8 degrees of these signs will feel it the most. We all feel these shifts tremendously.

Pluto opposes this Full Moon and reminds us all to release fear of the future, as we must release control with Pluto.  The Full Moon squares Jupiter, the grand benefic, which is currently transiting in the fixed earth sign of Taurus, where it expands resources.  The sun squares Jupiter directly on January 27, 2024 at 2:18 am EST.   A LOT of emotions, change, endings, and awakening.  

The other thing to add is that Uranus, the planet of enlightenment, inventiveness, electricity, and chaos, stations direct at on January 27, 2024 at 2:35 pm EST at 19 degrees and 5 minutes of the fixed earth sign of Taurus. Anyone with planets at 16 degrees to 22 degrees of the fixed signs will feel it the most: Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius. This is an electric jolt we all feel.  There was an earthquake yesterday in the San Bernardino area at 4.2 magnatude. Often when Uranus stations, there are earthquakes or other natural disasters. I remember when Uranus initially entered the sign of Taurus on May 15, 2018, and there was a volcano in Hawaii. You could experience issues with your technology —  gadgets, phones, computers, etc.  

 

This is a time to ground yourself.  You could feel like you are trying to fall asleep with all of the lights on in the house.  Do things to elevate your energy.  I would recommend some clearing like putting out a bowl of salt, burning sage or palo santo, getting rid of clutter, and clearing space. Work with your heart chakra.  Get some rose quartz, spend time with someone you love, connect with your animals, and connect to your creative spirit.  Focus on what you want to release in order to obtain your heart’s desire.

It would be a lie if I were to say this is an easy year or an easy time.  Pluto takes 248 years to transit.  It briefly entered Aquarius from March 23, 2023 through June 12, 2023.  That was just opening the window to let in the air.  Now, the windows have flown wide open, and there is no turning back! 

We can come together with prayer, love, chanting, brainstorming, and building connections.  We already know from the past four years how damaging isolation has been to us all.  The future is now so fast that you want to reflect back on Jupiter in Taurus where you expand through natural resources. Stay in nature and stay grounded because this Aquarius/Pisces combo is like sci fi and ethereal at the same time.  The future is so fast, I need to wear shades.  Let’s hope it can be bright, too.  We co-create this story, and I am ready to focus on the heart.

New Moon in Capricorn: We finally get a head start!

New Moon in Capricorn: We finally get a head start!

Hi, Everyone,

It has been four years since the legendary pairing of Saturn and Pluto, which took place on January 12, 2020 at the world point, which is at 22 degrees of any Cardinal sign: Aries, Cancer Libra, and Capricorn. In the case of January of 2020, the two tradiional malefics met up at 22 degrees of Capricorn and demolished (pluto) all of the structures in our world as we know it (Saturn/Capricorn). In many cases, structures cam down forever in our personal lives, in our neighborhoods, and on the world front. In other cases, much scaffolding and restructuring in every sense.

The narrative has segued to a focus on mental health, addiction, depression, alienation, creativity, inspiriation, dreams, and empathy. Saturn is now transiting in the mutable water sign of Pisces, where it entered on March 7, 2023, and where it will tour on and off through February 15, 2026. Each of us has been a viction of this time.

Pisces and Neptune can both represent the victims — among other things. Saturn, planet of structure, is still transiting in the very early degrees of Pisces. Whereas, Neptune, the modern ruler of Pisces and planet of dreams, illusion, delusion, compassion, and imagionation, is transiting at the very late degrees of Pisces in 2024. This is hardly a time to weaponize victimhood. This is a time to garner passion, empathy, and imagination to be part of other like minded souls aiming to help those who really cannot reprsesent or speak up for themselves.

t is now Capricorn season, which is a time to focus on what your future goals and plans are, and what steps and strategy you want to take to get there. On December 30, 2023, Jupiter, which is the grand benefic and the luckiest planet of the zodiac, stationed direct at 5 degrees and 34 minutes of the fixed earth sign of Taurus. We feel the characteristics of any outer planet magnified when it stations. With Jupiter, is is excess, abundance, opportunity, good fortune, travel, and higher learning, and sometimes it is just plain too much! Nonetheless, Jupiter is the planet of optimism, and it marks and optimism and hope much needed both to end 2023 and begin 2024.

Mercury, the planet of communication, information, travel, and transportation, retrograded on December 13, 2023 at 8 degrees and 29 minutes of the cardinal earth sign of Capricorn. This was an opportunity to reexamine your goals and what you the big goal(s) you want to accomplish in the year of 2024. Mercury stationed direct on January 1 at 22 degrees and 11 minutes of the mutable fire sign of Sagittarius, which is a sign that is ruled by Jupiter and is a sign that seeks hopefulness and adventure.

Mercury will actually retrade at this very degree on November 25, 2024 later in the year at 22 degrees of Sagittarius so in regards to some things you are developing at the the very beginning of this year will afford you the opportunity to re-do and e-evaulate the process by holiday season of 2024. But, who wants to jump to holiday season when we finally left that noise behind?

So, where are we this week? Well, it is currently January 9 2024, and Mercury, the planet of communication, made a challenging square to Neptune, planet of confusion and dreams, on January 8, 2024. We felt the buildup all of last week. Even though Mercury is now direct, this could bring a fog and a haze. It can make you feel tired and draind. However, I think there is more of of a magical tone to it.

There is a new moon in Capricorn on January 11, 2024, and it encapsulates the goal driven tone of 2024 in spite of the Neptune haze is quite haze with Saturn and Neptune taking a mystical tour in Neptune’s waters. Mars, the planet of action, drive, and ambition, entered the Cardinal earth sign of Capricorn on January 4, 2024, where it will tour through February 13, 2024. Mars loves being in Capricorn, where it is exalted and is extremely driven and actien oriented. Mars in Capricorn strives to get it done and will deliver!

The Sun, Mars, and Pluto are all transiting in Capricorn. The sun represents how you shine, and it represents ego and identity. Mars is the planet of action. Pluto is the planet of death, rebirth, transformation, and evolvement.

Mars is not only transiting in Capricorn, where is is very powerful and exalted; but, it is out-of-bounds from December 20, 2023 through January 23, 2024. This means it exceeds the Sun’s path by declination and exceeds either 23 degrees and 27 north or south of the ecliptic. This amplifies the Mars energy and can make you extra successful at the tasks you take on; but, it could also amplify people’s anger and impatience.

The New Moon in Capricorn occurs on January 11, 2024 at 6:57 am EST at 20 degrees and 44 minutes of the Cardinal sign of Capricorn, which automatically sets off the legendary Saturn/Pluto pairing from 1/12/2020, which changed the world forever. It also sets of the the Lunar Eclipse that occurred on 1/10/2020 at 20 degrees of Cancer and opposed this point and directly opposes the upcoming New Moon. There have been so many tests and challenges in the past few years with heavy Saturnian demands. However, it is time to build again and focus on dreams. Saturn, the cosmic architect, is no longer in the signs that it rules or in a sign it particularly likes while in Pisces, but it is is a time to surrender, dream, imagine, float, and tap into the alpha part of the brain.

I cast the New Moon chart for Washington DC, and the chart has Capricorn Ascendandant in addition to its being a new moon in Capricorn. Heavy energy around business, goals, responsibilities, and achievement! All of the planets are direct aside from Uranus, which stations direct on January 27, 2024 at 19 degrees and 5 minutes of the fixed earth sign of Taurus. This new moon chart provides a lot of opportunitiy to get things done, as the New Moon itself falls in the first house of new beginning.

Uranus, the planet of invention, forms a beautiful angle to the New Moon and reminds you that you are the source of a lot of abundance and expansion, and it is within you more than you realize. The New Moon trine Uranus brings a lot of innovative thinking, and it is excellent for networking, online ventures in work, and out-of-the-blue good luck! This New Moon squares the Nodes of Fate, which are currently transiting at 20 degrees of the Cardinal signs of Aries and Libra. This could bring even more fated opportunities to connect socially, Pay attention to invitations, events, and meetings that occur around the weekend of January 12, 2024.

Mercury is at 27 degres of the mutable fire sign of Sagittarius, and this is right at the Galactic center, which is the center of the milky way. You can get a lot of sensitive information and psychic downloads with Mercury at the Galactic Center, and it squares Neptune, planet of confusion and idealism. On one hand, things are boundless and beyond your wildest dreams.

This new Moon wants you to really dream and focus on your inuition and psychic ability. However, with Pluto at the final degree of Capricorn and a new moon in Capricorn with Mars in its exaltation in Capricorn in this New Moon chart, it is time to take inventory and accountability.

This is is the first New Moon of the year, and it is an excellent time to set new intentions and plant new seeds for this year ahead! Take a blank check or write on a piece of paper (you can print Law of Abundance check internet).

Date the check for the day of the New Moon, which is January 11, 2024. Where it says, “Pay to the order or,” print your full name. Leave the small numeric box blank. Where you would normally print the full dollar amount, print, “Paid in Full.” At the bottom of the check, where you would normally sign your name, print, “The Law of Abundance.

Mercury, the planet of thinking, learning, communication, and sales, returns to the sign of Capricorn on January 13, 2024, where it will transit through February 5, 2024. Mercury, Mars, the Sun, and Pluto will all be transiting in Capricorn right after this dynamic new moon in Capricorn, which urges you to take risks and go for what you want and re-focus your drive. There is so much to discuss for 2024, and there will be times that feel so sleepy and scattered. But, now is not the time to dream. Now it is time to live it! #astrology #horoscope #zodiac

Mercury retrograde: Release your past

Mercury retrograde: Release your past

Hi, Everyone,

This is probably my last big article of the year, and what a difficult year it has been! Saturn and Pluto had their legendary pairing on January 12, 2020 at the world point in Capricorn, and that is almost four years ago. Yet, as a collective, we still struggle to repair all of the shattered structures and lives that have been impacted since that time.

We conclude the year with Mercury retrograde in Capricorn, which could bring reconnection with goals, ambition, former co-workers, and reexamination of achievement, and how to get there. Mercury retrogrades both in Capricorn and Sagittarius this retrograde period. In Sagittarius, it is about reassing how to stay positive in difficult times, how to soar, expand, and draw in your vision.

Saturn entered the mutable water sign of Pisces on March 7, 2023, and it will transit through the sign of Pisces on and off through February 15, 2026. Saturn represents authority figures, rules and regulations, structures, responsibility, karma, character, and integrity. Saturn also governs time.

With Saturn in Pisces, it is hard to get the journey going or to believe it is even worth it. Pisces is mutable water, and it cannot be contained. It could feel like you started on what felt like a First Class trip on The Orient Express and ended up on a Peter Pan bus with a driver on his soapbox telling you to keep it down while he talks to his mother for the entire ride on a speaker phone.

Don’t think about how you get there. Don’t question your transportation. Tune that driver out with your headphones and let your imagination take you where you want to go. You are most definitely not at the helm with Saturn in Pisces; yet, you need not be. You can still get there. Follow me along, and I will show you. This is a time where our faith and dreams are being challenged in big ways. Put on those headphones. Close your eyes, smile, and dream your new future.

Pluto is the planet of death, rebirth, power, and big money. Pluto also changed signs in the month of March and entered the fixed air sign of Aquarius, where it will tour on and off through January of 2044. Pluto in Aquarius indicates much social change, rebellion, and chaos; as well as a world far more immersed in technology — whether or not we like it. AI has only just begun.

The last New Moon of the year occurred on December 12, 2023 in the mutable fire sign of Sagittarius, which is a sign of optimism, truth, and hope. This New Moon occurred at 20 degrees and 40 minutes of Sagittarius and formed a wide conjunction with Mars in Sagittarius, which strives for adventure and learning. The moon in Sagittarius is one of the most joyous placements of the moon. Jupiter is the ruler of Sagittarius, and it is exalted in the sign of Cancer, which is ruled by the moon. The moon loves being in Sagittarius. The moon in Sagittarius expands through laughter, belief, and optimism. The people I know that share this placement laugh from the heart.

This New Moon was a cosmic reminder that it is a very tough spiritual bus ride that we are all on together, but there is a lot of joy and fun we can have if we do not lose a vision for the future. Maybe your transfer ride is late, and you are stuck at the station. Get your tablet or a notepad and jot down some ideas that you want to magnetize into reality. The Moon in Sagittarius went void with a square to Neptune. Jupiter is the vision. Neptune is the dream.

The New moon and Neptune in conflict could reinforce the idea that it is not worth it and will not work out, so why try? It could also double down the idea that you need to pray, chant, trust, clear space, and have visions and dreams that you cannot lose even if you need to change buses. Perhaps there are deceptive people that are keeping the dream at bay. It is too late to get off the bus now, and we need your dreams. We need to dream together and fuel this bus with cosmic inspiration.

Next year, Neptune, the planet of illusion, fantasy, dreams, spirituality, addiction, drugs, alcohol, deception, vulnerability, and kindness, reaches the final degree of the Zodiac and will be at the final degree of Pisces. This will be difficult for many. Addiction, deception, depression, homelessness, mental illness, and feeling lost. It is a reality we face, but there is such a beautiful, creative, and spiritual element to all of this that we cannot forget. In fact, it is what will keep us going and help us create something beautiful.

Mercury, the planet of information, communication, the intellect, and learning, retrograded on December 13, 2023 at 2:09 am EST at 8 degrees and 28 minutes of the cardinal earth sign of Capricorn. Capricorn is a sign of ambition and initative. This is an opportunitity to reassess how you can achieve your goals in a more constructive way. You reconnect with people with whom you used work or revisit goals that you that you have put on the shelf. This is a great opportunity to analyze what you wish to construct in 2024.

Mercury re-enters the mutable fire sign of Sagittarius on December 23, 2023 and stations direct on January 1, 2024 at 10:08 pm EST at 22 degrees and 10 minutes of Sagittarius. This is a great way to begin the year, as Mercury’s station in Sagittarius is a message for all of us to expand in 2024 through learning and hope. Mercury may be in its detriment in Sagittarius, as it rules the opposite sign of Gemini; yet, I find people that have this signature, devour a lot of information and are constantly curious about a variety of things.

Mercury’s station on January 1, 2024 reminds us all that we are moving ahead and attracting new opportunities by feeling like we could end up in “the right place at the right time.” Thoughts become things, and Mercury’s station in the hopeful fire sign of Sagittarius proclaims this for 2024. Mercury also stations at 22 degrees of Sagittarius, which is just off by two degrees from the New Moon in Sagittarius that we celebrated on December 12th, 2023.

Keep working with what you are trying to bring into your life. Remember that this is about suspension of disblief, as Neptune requests and requires that you trust the process and let go of control. Mercury in Capricorn is a stratregic placement, where you can plan the future with clarity and back it up with action.

The Sun in Sagittarius forms a challenging square to Neptune in Pisces on December 16, 2023 at 10:43 pm EST at 24 degrees and 55 minutes. This is a very draining energy, so make sure to take extra time for self care and getting rest. This can be very creative and romantic, but it will likely be emotional. Get extra rest. Chant, pray, and manfest. This combination speaks back to the New Moon in Sagittarius. The dream and vision are still there, but it takes extra time to make a plan. The Sun and Neptune in conflict bring uncertainty.

This could make you doubt yourself, and deception could be in the air. Dreams are magnified. Immerse yourself in those dreams as much as possible and cleanse the negativity, as it is easy to absorb other people’s energy.

Sagittarius Season: What is your vision?

Sagittarius Season: What is your vision?

Hi, Everyone,

The Sun entered the mutable fire sign of Sagittarius on November 22, 2023 at 9:03 am EDT, where it will transit through December 21, 2023. Sagittarius is a fire sign, which is ruled by the planet Jupiter. Jupiter is the Grand Benefic of the Zodiac, and it represents abundance, good fortune, hope, travel, wisdom, and higher learning. Sagittarius is a sign of freedom and broad horizons.

This lends some hope after a particularly heavy Scorpio season driven by Mars tailgating the Sun in Scorpio; Mars travels with the Sun in the month of November. When it leaves Scorpio, it leaves its dignity and where is particularly strong; but, painful emotions do not drive actions, as has been the case in the past few weeks.

The Sun forms a challenging square to Saturn in Pisces, which becomes exact on November 23, 2023 at 4:47 am EST. Saturn represents and restrictions. Saturn is a mutable fire sign, which is a sign of freedom and truth, and it can feel like your freedom is being challenged or that you are not able to tap into optimism as much as you normally can. Use this energy to focus on what small habits or actions you can take to tap into the hope, as it is there for you! Saturn in Pisces tests our faith and dreams, and it requites an ability to suspend disbelief that your dreams are inaccessible in tentative times.

Mars, the planet of action, passion, aggression, and drive, exits the sign of Scorpio and also enters the mutable sign of Sagittarius, on November 24, 2023 at 5:15 am EST. Mars tours in Sagittarius through January 4, 2023. Mars in Sagittarius is a time to manifest, promote, publish, teach, take a workshop or a class, and travel! Take action to magnetize your vision. Mars clashes with Saturn, on November 25, 2023 at 11:57 am EST, and there could be some frustrating delays with travel or a sense of being held back in some way. It is an excellent energy for focusing on a demanding project that requires a lot of diligence.

For most of the weekend, the moon is in a lovely place in the fixed earth sign of Taurus, where it is exalted. There is a buildup to the Full Moon in Gemini, which occurs on November 27, 2023 at 4:16 am EST at 4 degrees and 51 minutes of the mutable air sign of Gemini.

I cast the Full moon chart to Washington DC, and it has Scorpio rising at the very first degree, and both Mars and Pluto rule the chart. Mars is now in Sagittarius and clashing with Saturn, which holds it back from adventure.

Mars is still on top of the Sun; Saturn is the at the bottom of the chart an in a sign that lacks security but in a sector that craves it. Saturn forms a a challenging T Square, which involves Mars and the Sun in Sagittarius, who are fighting for freedom, joy, and truth; moon in Gemini, which needs to talk.

They are all struggling with Saturn, which tries to curb their enthusiasm. Try to think of it as bringing an attempt at structure, in which so many planets are currently mutable and floating around that in a way that could feel very scattered and unfocused.

The positive part of the Saturn square is that it could wake you up to the fact that you need to take more micro steps in order to your goals accomplished and get you in motion. Venus, the planet of love, value, and money, is at 21 degrees and 2 minutes of the Cardinal air sign of Libra, which is exactly the degree where the Solar Eclipse occurred on October 14, 2023. Focus on love and beauty. Focus on what gives you happiness, and how you can bring kindness to others.

This is an excellent time to try to harness your imagination and meditate to release the fears that keep you from achieving your dreams. Burn some palo santo, sage, or incense. Write your fear on a piece of paper and carefully burn it in a safe place and let those fears burn up in Sagittarius time. Since Mars is close, be extra careful. Saturn is the reality planet, and it is challenging your dreams and visions. Yet, Neptune, which is the modern ruler of Pisces, is currently transiting at the late degrees of Pisces, where it is in its rulership. Neptune in Pisces creates the dream.

Neptune forms a close hit to Mercury, planet of thoughts and perspective, in the Full Moon chart. Full Moons are a time of completion, and they can also uncover information — particularly in the chatty sign of Gemini. A Full Moon sheds a light on a situation.

Mercury squaring Neptune helps you to tap into that dream in a big way. Please remember this lesson that Saturn in Pisces needs you to get this next few years. It may not be tenth Grade Literature, but “suspension of disbelief,” will be key to get you through the Saturn in Pisces/Pluto in Aquarius era. Keep dreaming, expect the unexpected, and go ask Alice when she’s ten feet tall.

 Lunar Eclipse in Taurus: Where are our values?

 Lunar Eclipse in Taurus: Where are our values?

Hi, Everyone,

Like most articles that I have written this year, this is a very tough one to write. I saw that someone wrote recently that she was born with Saturn in Pisces, and she does not struggle with addiction or depression; her life challenge has been in finding her creativity.

I have found it very hard to write the way I normally do since Saturn entered Pisces on March 7th of this year. It takes me far more time to synthesize words to mirror celestial events. Right now, the world is in chaos, and there is so much violence and rage. I need to write this article — even if it means staring at a computer screen for far longer than I should. We need to be aware. We need to be conscious.

Currently, we are in Scorpio season. The Sun entered the fixed water sign of Scorpio on October 23, 2023, where it transits through November 22, 2023. Scorpio is a highly intense and perceptive sign, which is very investigative and gets right to the bottom of things.

There are currently four points transiting in the sign of Scorpio: The sun, which is ego and identity; Mercury, the planet of news and information; Mars, the planet of war, action, and passion; Ceres, an asteroid that represents nourishment, motherhood, and family.

Scorpio is a very passionate sign that has two rulers: Mars in ancient Astrology and Pluto in modern astrology. A lot of people think Scorpio is a fire sign because of the Mars influence, and its impact can definitely be quite fiery. Those that are in with Scorpios know that they can be extremely intense and incisive. They can see through you like a laser beam. Since Scorpio can dish it out with the best of them, people underestimate how sensitive this sign really is.

Mercury is traveling along with Mars, which can be very aggressive and combative communication and actions. Mars builds up to an opposition to Jupiter, which expands that with which it comes into contact. You can feel the influence of Mars before it becomes exact, and Mars opposes Jupiter directly on October 28, 2023 at 12:03 pm EDT, which is only a few hours before the Partial Lunar Eclipse in Taurus takes place.

Eclipses always come in pairs, and the first Eclipse occurred by the world point at 21 degrees and 6 minutes of the Cardinal air sign of Libra on October 14, 2023. When planets or Eclipses occur at the world point, they bring world changing news in our own lives, and it brings major world events.

Think back to January 12, 2023 when the two malefics of the Zodiac — Saturn and Pluto — met up at 22 degrees of the Cardinal earth sign of Capricorn, which is on the world axis. That legendary astrological event changed our world forever and brought down the structures in our lives. Saturn is the planet of structures, corporations, governments, and karma. Pluto is the planet of death, rebirth, transformation, big money, and power.

The Solar Eclipse on October 14th directly triggered that Saturn/Pluto conjunction, which can involve major power issues with Pluto in Capricorn. Pluto is currently transiting at the last degrees of Capricorn and squared the Nodes of Fate three times in the sky in the month of July: 7/23, 7/25, and 7/28. Three exact hits with major power struggles, changes in direction, and major life change.

This Eclipse on October 14th was a South Node Eclipse that means there is something to release. Mars was newly in the sign of Scorpio, where it is invincible and can be cruel. Mars is ferocious and unstoppable in Scorpio. At the time of the Solar Eclipse in Libra, Mars was very close in degree to last year’s Solar Eclipse in Scorpio that took place on October 25, 2023 at 2 degrees of Scorpio. If big events happened around that time for you, this recent Eclipse might have stirred that up in your life and brought more information or events connected to it.

There is a global war crisis going on in the Middle East, which could accelerate into something huge and has already moved so quickly and savagely in the past few weeks. Again, we feel the energy of Mars before it is exact.

On the morning of October 7, 2023, Hamas launched an unprecedented attack on Israel from the Gaza strip, and this was the day before Mars made an exact square to Pluto on October 8, 2023. This was also a week before the HUGE Solar Eclipse in Libra at the world point, and combative nature of Mars and Pluto at war was catapulted.

Libra is a sign of peace and justice. However, Mars was on the South Node of Karma and in opposition to the North Node of Fate, which was is in Aries and is ruled by Mars. Mars had just entered the sign of Scorpio on October 12, 2023, where it will transit through November 24, 2023. Mars conjunct the South Node of Karma — albeit at a wide orb and out of sign. Yet, Mars was in its fierce placement of Scorpio.

Eris, the Goddess of Discord, was exactly on the North Node of Fate in Aries and amplifying the Mars driven energy of rage and brutality. Eclipses bring events to a head, and they help bring things to light. They can be very dramatic wild cards in that they can bring news that changes your life forever. Often, it has been brewing for a long time and finally boils over into your world. Other times, it is completely out-of-the-blue and yet so jarring that you never forget.

This is an Eclipse that none of us will ever forget — whether or not it hit your chart directly. If you have planets between 19 and 25 degrees of the Cardinal signs, you will feel this past Eclipse the most: Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn. Again, we all feel it as it was at the global point by degree.

Pluto squared the New Moon Eclipse in Libra, which is a sign of relationships, partnerships, justice, and equality. Mars and Eris were in great conflict, and Mars in Scorpio is a killer. The North Node in Aries urges you to fight for love and be courageous in a frightening world. You have to face fear. A lot of breakups and endings are occurring with this Eclipse. Pluto eliminates things, people, and situations that keep you from growing. A few people told me that they had end to end long-term friendships that had become toxic. Eclipses can eclipses people in and out of our lives.

People are leaving jobs and starting a new path. I have heard more relationship stories with this recent Eclipse and a lot of financial themes with the last round of Eclipses. Nonetheless, Eclipses want us to heed areas of our life that need change. Wherever these Eclipses occur in your chart, is where a lot of activity and energy is occurring for you.

With Pluto in conflict with the Solar Eclipse and the Nodes of Fate, there are things you need to release in your life. There could be a lot of people on power trips with Pluto in conflict with the Nodes of Fate. You could be be dealing with a bully in your life. The best way to deal with a bully is to stand up to them. Do it with kindness, justice, and confidence. Whatever you do, stand up with the North Node in Aries and fight for yourself. They are simply paper tigers.

Please lay low with the upcoming Lunar Eclipse in Taurus. A Solar Eclipse is a New Moon on steroids and tends to represent major beginnings. Eclipses are turning points. Yet, I have also witnessed major endings on Solar(New Moon) Eclipses, and I have witnessed major beginnings on Lunar (Full Moon) Eclipses.

Regardless if it is a beginning or an ending that occurs with this Eclipse in Taurus, a Lunar Eclipse is a time to process emotionally all that you have been experiencing. The Lunar Eclipse occurs on October 28, 2023 at 4:24 pm EDT at 5 degrees and 9 minutes of the fixed earth sign of Taurus. As aforementioned, Mars opposes Jupiter and forms a new two year cycle, but it can really expand the viciousness of Mars in Scorpio, which is traveling closely to Mercury in Scorpio. A lot of reveals, as Scorpio is the detective of the Zodiac, but there could be a lot of hostility with this type of energy.

You can only control how you react and interact with others. As I had said before, we feel the energy of Mars before it becomes exact. Yet another tragic story of violence that took place yesterday in Lewiston, Maine, in which 13 people were killed, and 18 people were injured. A few days earlier, a pilot tried to shut down the engine of a plane and endangered 83 lives. Mars rules guns, violence, and impulsive behavior.

I cast the chart for the Lunar Eclipse for Washington DC, and it has Pisces rising with Neptune, which is the ruler of Pisces, close to the Ascendant. Mars forms its opposition to Jupiter at 12:03 pm EDT, and the Full Moon Eclipse itself occurs at 4:24 pm EDT at 5 degrees and 9 minutes of Taurus. This is the final Eclipse in the Taurus/Scorpio Eclipse axis. Taurus is an earth sign, which is very grounding. This Eclipse wants you to ground among the chaos, which will inevitably be challenging.

Someone wrote something beautiful, with which I concur. Open your heart and send love. If we do this together, it magnifies the energy. Venus rules both of these Eclipses: The Solar Eclipse in Libra and the Lunar Eclipse in Taurus. Libra is relationship oriented; while, Taurus focuses on income, money, creativity, and what is of value. Mars is conjunct Mercury, and there could be very hostile communication. If you need to talk about something sensitive with someone, try to wait a few weeks until the energy wanes.

Saturn, the planet of cohesion and responsibility, stations direct on November 4, 2023 at 0 degrees of Pisces, where it entered on March 7, 2023. I have been saying for a good portion of the year that this gives us all of an opportunity to revisit and redo the Saturn in Pisces story thus far. Do not give up on dreams and try to work with chanting, manifesting, meditating, floating, and raising the love. 
 
We will feel Saturn’s pressure five starting on October 31, 2023 through November 9, 2023. Time to anchor that dream. A lot of amazing artists, musicians, and writers were born during Saturn in Pisces. The North Node is in Aries, which urges you to fight for yourself and face fear. Saturn in Pisces urges us all to come together in love, but will we listen? #astrology #horoscope #lunareclipse

Solar Eclipse in Libra: Fight for love!

Solar Eclipse in Libra: Fight for love!

Hi, Everyone,

Eclipse season is here, and the intensity is high in the sky! Eclipses are wild cards that bring a lot of drama and change in a very short period of time. They shake us out of complacency in order that we wake up and evolve. Sometimes, things have been brewing for a long time and finally explode. Other times, something or someone can be eclipsed out of our lives in an instant, and that can feel more Uranian in nature in that Eclipses are heightened energy, but they are also HIGHLY unpredictable! Eclipses bring big news of major news events and events in our own lives. They mark major beginnings, endings, and turning points. Other times, Eclipse are Uranianian in nature in that something or someone can be eclipsed in or out of our lives in an instant!

My old Astrology teacher used to say about Uranus cycles, “Expect the unexpected.” I think the same can be said of Eclipses in that you know a lot will happen in a short period of time, but you do not know exactly how it will play out, and there can be HUGE surprises!

The annual Solar Eclipse occurs on October 14, 2023 at 21 degrees and 6 minutes of the Cardinal air sign of Libra. Solar Eclipses are like new moons on steroids. However, this is a South Node Eclipse, which means there is a lot of release, departures, and endings of partnerships, as Libra is the seventh sign of the Zodiac and is the sign of partnerships.

I do need to write that these are highly volatile and sad times in the world. The Astrology is very volatile, and I touched upon that in my last article and recent videos; but, I will dive a bit more into that. Pluto, the planet of power, death, rebirth, intimacy, and big money, stationed direct on October 10, 2023 at 27 degrees and 53 minutes of the Cardinal earth sign of Capricorn. We feel the buildup of Pluto’s station five days before and five days afterwards. Pluto’s station intensifies all of it’s attributes: power, manipulation, cruelty, transformation, death, rebirth, joint resources, inheritance, debt, and intimacy. Pluto cycles can bring BIG departures; as well as issues with power and money. Capricorn is a sign that represents big corporations, governments, those in authority, restrictions, and karmic challenges.

Mars built up to a challenging square with Pluto last weekend and peaked on October 8, 2023 at 27 degrees of Libra and Capricorn respectively. Mars is the God of war, and Pluto is the higher octave of Mars. Think back to the last round of Eclipses when the Eclipse series began in Aries/Libra. The Solar Eclipse on April 20, 2023 was at 29 degrees and 20 minutes of the Cardinal fire sign of Aries, which is ruled by Mars. The Nodes of Fate changed signs over the summer and entered the Aries/Libra axis, where they will transit through January 12, 2025. The Eclipse on April 20, 2023 was at 29 degrees of Aries and was at the final degree of Aries, which was immediately triggered on July 17th when the North Node of Karma came right to that point.

Pluto, the planet of death and power, formed three exact squares with the Nodes of Fate in the month of July and triggered that Solar Eclipse in Aries, which was at the final degree of Aries and is ruled by the planet Mars. Pluto in Capricorn clashed three times with the Nodes of Fate on July 23rd, July 25th, and July 28th, 2023. Those were three exact squares at the last degrees — bringing down power structures in our lives and on the world stage. Pluto completes its journey in Capricorn altogether on November 19, 2025; but, it is not done yet, as is quite clear on the world stage.

The Annual Solar Eclipse occurs on October 14, 2023 at 21 degrees and 7 minutes of the Cardinal air sign of Libra. This is less than a degree from the world point, which brings BIG world events and also impacts each and every one of us; as we are the world. Planets and Eclipses that transit at 0 and 22 degrees of the Cardinal signs impact everyone: Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn. This Solar Eclipse occurs just by the world point and also immediately triggers the legendary pairing of Saturn and Pluto. The two malefics of the Zodiac met up on January 12, 2020 and brought permanent change to the structures of our world.

This Solar Eclipse in Libra defaults to that sad and unforgettable Saturn/Pluto combo that forever changed the structures in our lives. This Eclipse in Libra is just off from the world point and is also conjunct two fixed stars known as Arcuturus and Spica, which are now at 24 degrees of Libra. These two fixed stars deal with acclaim and prosperity, but they can also be associated with belligerence. Arcturus can be quite quarrelsome; but, individuals that have points in their birth charts at approximately 24 degrees of Libra tend to have great ambition to achieve and are usually quite successful.

I cast the Solar Eclipse chart to Washington DC, and it has Capricorn Ascendant with the ruler of the chart being Saturn, which is currently at the very first degree of the mutable water sign of Pisces, which is at 0 degrees of Pisces. This speaks back to when Saturn initially entered the sign of Pisces on March 7, 2023, where it will tour on and off through February 15, 2026. Saturn in Pisces is very tentative at getting things done and feels lost at sea.

A Solar Eclipse occurs when the earth stands between the moon and the sun and cuts off the light of the Sun. Eclipses make you see things in a way like you never have before, and they brings things to light. I have watched how Eclipses play out in clients’ lives for quite a while now, and I have seen major endings occur on New Moon (Solar) Eclipses; I have also seen major beginnings occur on Lunar (Full Moon) Eclipses. Eclipse season can bring major opportunities and beginnings that one should seize, but this Solar Eclipse squares Pluto, the cosmic compost, which brings major endings and battles.

Mars, which is the lower Octave of Pluto, is the modern ruler of the Cardinal Fire sign of Aries and the ancient rules of the Fixed water sign of Scorpio. Pluto’s energy was heightened when it came to a cosmic clash with Mars, God of war, on October 8th, 2023. The two set off the Mars ruled Solar Eclipse that occurred in Aries on 4/20/23.

In the Solar Eclipse chart, the Eclipse squares Pluto, the cosmic compost, which means there are inevitably endings in partnerships and on many levels in this Solar Eclipse. Mars entered its dignity when it entered the sign of Scorpio on October 12, 2023, where it will transit through November 24, 2023. Mars was in its detriment when it clashed with Pluto and triggered the unrest in the Middle East, which has been going on for years. There was also a huge Earthquake that occurred in Afghanistan. So much Mars/Pluto energy at play.

Mars is now in a sign where it is described like a dog after a bone, and in which it is unstoppable. Mars is in its dignity in Scorpio and is the highest point in this Solar Eclipse chart. It also defaults back to the Solar Eclipse that occurred at 2 degrees of Scorpio on October 25, 2022 and was exactly conjunct Venus in Scorpio.

Mars is conjunct the South Node of Karma out-of-sign. Eris, the goddess of discord and Mars’ sister, is exactly on top of the North Node of Karma in Aries. Eris is also clashing with Pluto, and there are heavy, heavy power struggles on the world stage and in our own lives. What do you need to do to release the pain and anger? We need to heal together, and now there are even more broken people with Saturn in Pisces, which is a time when PTSD sounds like a supplement you buy at Vitacost. The fact that this Eclipse is at the world point and is squaring Pluto at the late degrees of Capricorn makes this Eclipse monumental. It is also in the Via Combusta, which is from 15 degrees of Libra to 15 degrees of Scorpio. It is known as the fiery way and was considered hazardous in Ancient Astrology.

There is very strong Mars energy in this chart, so you have to fight for love and realize that people are on the warpath. If a relationship is rocky, and you wish to save it, try to wait until the Eclipse energy tempers a bit. People can be eclipsed out of our lives, and this particular Eclipse will entail a lot breakups and endings with Pluto in combat with both the Eclipse, the Nodes of Fate, Mars, and Eris. This is excellent energy for detoxing, fasting, and doing shadow work.

Get rid of clutter, throw things out, burn palo santo or sage, and make space for love. The Solar Eclipse is a time to do the Law of Abundance and set new intentions. Date the check for October 14th. Where it says, “Pay to the order of, print your full name. Leave the small numeric box blank. Where you normally print the dollar amount, print, “Paid in Full.” At the bottom of the check, where you normally sign your name, print, “The Law of Abundance.” My heart and prayers are with everyone affected by the tragic war in the Middle East, and I pray in the dark with rest of you for something unobtainable called peace.

October 2023: Eclipses with a side of hash browns

October 2023: Eclipses with a side of hash browns

Hi, Everyone,

Can you feel the stirring and the excitement in the air? Eclipse season is officially upon us! We experienced three Supermoons: Two in the month of August and one on September 29, 2023 that officially began Eclipse Season.

In the month of August, there were two Supermoons. Two big whoppers occurred in the month of August on the 1st and the 30th and took my sweet Billy cat with them. I am still in mourning, and I heard and felt his energy yesterday. My boyfriend said to hold off on getting another cat yet, and I know he is right. My best friend Ben feels Billy’s energy all of the time, and he watches over us!

Let’s get to the Eclipses because I am starting to focus in a way that I have not for the majority of the year. Eclipse are dramatic wild cards that shake us up and wake us up! Eclipses can bring life changing news in a flash and make you see things in a way in which you never have before.

A silly example I can use does illustrate how Eclipses make us see things. I remember this because it actually occurred on the day of an Eclipse. I could not get a cab across town from the West side to the East side and was late for an appointment. A guy drove by with a motorcycle and two helmets and offered me a ride across town. I am not one to pull an Easy Rider on the fly with a stranger on 10th avenue, but I had to get to my appointment.

I figured that odd and unusual things occur on Eclipses and to go with the flow. This guy had good energy, and it was a very enjoyable trip across Central Park. I felt like Alice Wonderland spinning across the park and soaking in all of its wonders in a very fast pace.

The interesting that thing that was the experience itself was like an Eclipse in that I immediately saw things in a way I normally do not. Eclipses are very revealing and bring things to light. Instead of being in the back of a taxi cab, I made direct eye contact with the drivers and suddenly felt much more at the helm — as opposed to sitting and not paying attention in the back seat. Believe me, you don’t want me as a back seat or a front seat driver, but that’s a story for another time! 🙂

On September 29, 2023, there was a Supermoon at six degrees of the Cardinal Fire sign of Aries, and this officially marked Eclipse season, as the final Lunation that precedes the Eclipses defines Eclipse season.

Eclipses always occur in pairs and are two weeks apart. We feel the buildup two weeks before the Eclipses begin and two weeks after they occur. I have noticed that if an Eclipse really hits a person’s chart, they can have a major event or revelation up to a month beforehand, and the energy and events can certainly linger for up to a month or even up to a few months afterwards.

Eclipses bring a sense of pressure, and they can raise your anxiety; as if you can feel like something is about to happen and are very much in tune with it. Eclipses bring major turning points. A lot occurs in a very short period of time. Major beginnings and endings happen in a brief period of time. People often take on new jobs, leave a job, move, break up from a relationship, take on a new promotion. Life changing events can occur very quickly!

Often, it is something that has built up for a while and suddenly explodes. Eclipses can eclipse people and situations right out of our lives. Eclipses remind me a bit of Uranus cycles in that they are very eye opening and are meant to raise our consciousness. Yet, both Uranus cycles and Eclipses have something similar to the Tower card in that they can be very jarring and eject you from your reality in a millisecond.

Over the summer, the Nodes of Fate changed signs on July 17, 2023 and entered the Aries/Libra axis. The North Node transits in Aries through January 12, 2025. The North Node is where you are meant to grow. In Aries, it is embracing being a pioneer and having the courage to initiate new things in a tentative time.

Pluto clashed with the Nodes of fate three times in the month of July, and a lot of people have had to make critical decisions on where they are going in their living situation, work, relationships, etc.

Mercury, the planet of communication, cleared its shadow on September 30th meaning that it reached 21 degrees of the mutable earth sign of Virgo, which is where it retrograded on August 21, 2023. Venus, the planet of value, partnerships, money, and creativity, retrograded on July 22, 2023 at 28 degrees and 36 minutes of Leo.

Venus finally clears it shadow on October 7th when it gets to 28 degrees of Leo and it leaves the sign of Leo altogether on October 8, 2023 when it enters the mutable air earth sign of Virgo. Venus loves being in Leo; but, I think the strong Plutonian energy with the Nodes of Fate dampened the levity, joy, and promise of Venus in Leo. I saw some people really thrive and soar with the Venus in Leo tale. Some of those people natally have Regulus (27 to 29 degrees of Leo) in their birth charts were pretty unstoppable.

I noticed a lot of reconnection to the past for so many people this summer, as there were six planets retrograde. Venus only retrogrades once every eighteen months. Mercury, the personal planet of communication and transportation, entered its shadow at 8 degrees of Virgo on August 4th and retrograded on August 21st, so there were two personal planets in retrograde or shadow retrograde energy — aside from six planets in total. Things felt very much on hold!

Now, the two personal planets clear their shadow, and a Solar Eclipse is on the way! Mercury, the planet of information, news, learning, things, and ideas, enters the Cardinal air sign of Libra on October 4, 2023 at 8:09 pm EDT, where it tours through October 22nd. Although Mercury is in its strongest position while in its domicile in Virgo, it loves being in air signs, which are very cerebral; Mercury in Aries is great for socializing and partnering with others. It also lends more energy to the Libra Eclipse!

Venus, which rules both the signs of Libra and Taurus (the two upcoming Eclipses) changes signs on October 8, 2023 and enters the mutable earth sign of Virgo, where it will transit through November 8, 2023. Venus is technically in its fall position while in the sign of Virgo, as it is exalted in the opposite sign of Pisces. This brings a very analytical tone, and it replays the recent Mercury retrograde in Virgo. Perhaps, you get more information and details during a very revealing Eclipse season.

The idea is that these Eclipses are very relationship oriented and focused on security. The Nodes of Fate just changed signs a few months ago, so we have one final Eclipse in the Taurus/Scorpio axis, which focuses on money, security, income, and value.

Eclipses recur approximately every nineteen years; therefore, this Eclipse series did occur in October of 2004 when there was an Annual Solar Eclipse in Libra on October 14, 2004; as well as a Partial Lunar Eclipse at in Taurus on October 28, 2004. Eclipses can bring back certain themes. It may not play out the exact same way. Although Eclipses are very unpredictable, you can control how you interface with the events and with your emotions; as well as with others.

Again, remember that Eclipse bring us information that we may never had up until this point, and they brings things to light and make us see things. Up until the beginning of this month, the two personal planets were either retrograde, in retrograde shadow, or retrograde at the same time. Now, they are clearing and changing signs. Mercury changes signs October 4, 2023, and Venus changes signs on October 8, 2023.

Pluto, the planet of power, intensity, major departures, death, and rebirth, stations retrograde at 27 degrees and 53 minutes of the Cardinal earth sign of Capricorn on October 10, 2023. We feel the buildup five days before and five days after. We start to feel Pluto’s intensity as of October 5, 2023. It exaggerates the energy of Pluto and brings a very heavy, emotional and Scorpionic tone. A lot of endings, moves, and breakups in Libra season.

Solar Eclipses are like New Moons are on steroids. A new moon is a time of new beginnings and planting new seeds. However, I have seen major endings on Solar Eclipses; I have seen major beginnings and new opportunities emerge on Lunar Eclipses. To have a beginning, you must end something. To end something, you also begin a new chapter. Change is in the air, so you better wear your helmet and look at the world straight in the eye and ready for adventure!

Mars, the planet of action, drive, anger, and ambition, enters the fixed water sign of Scorpio on October 12, 2023, where it will tour through November 24, 2023.

As aforementioned, Eclipses always come in pairs. Usually, we have four Eclipses in a year with two occurring every six months. Every now and then, we get six Eclipses in a year, and that is a real eye opening year of change ahead! I will not go into detail about both of these Eclipses quite yet. However, we are transitioning from the Taurus/Scorpio Eclipse axis, which is focused a lot on money, income, value, debt, taxes, intimacy, lost, and blocks around wounds.

The Eclipses are now in the Aries/Libra axis through Spring of 2025. Eclipses occur for about two to two and a half years in a Sign axis, in which we are meant to release that what is hindering us (the South Node) and grow towards what we are meant to embrace (The North Node). The Solar Eclipse occurs on October 14, 2023 at 1:55 pm EDT at 21 degrees and 7 minutes of the cardinal air sign of Libra.

This Eclipse sets off the legendary pairing of the two malefics of the Zodiac: Saturn and Pluto. The two met up at the world point at 22 degrees of the Cardinal earth sign of Capricorn on January 12, 2020 and forever brought down the structures in our world. In some cases, it is permanent. In some cases, a lot of scaffolding and repair.

This Eclipse is less than a minute from the world point and really packs a punch. Make sure to clear the energy, declutter, clean your house, burn sage, or palo santo, blow some cinnamon in your front door, and make space for GREAT things to happen! 🙂

The Solar Eclipse is a time to do the Law of Abundance and set new intentions, as this is a HIGHLY and VERY powerful new moon that is triple the strength of a typical new moon.

Again, the south node is transiting in the sign of Libra, so there may be people, relationships, and situations that are eclipses out of our lives. Often with Eclipse energy, it can be permanent. If things are tense in a partnership and you want to give it more time, this is is not a time for a real heart-to-heart discussion about where this is going.

Give it a little more and then test the waters. People and special opportunities can definitely be eclipsed INTO our lives, and this is a time to manifest what gives you happiness, as Venus rules this New Moon Eclipse.

The South Node is exactly on the the New Moon Eclipse, so inevitably there is a sense of letting go in some way or another — whether if it is just releasing fear. The Solar Eclipse is inconjunct Neptune in Pisces, which means that there is a need for readjustment, and there could be some disappointment that you need to try to work on going forward. Perhaps hidden information gets brought to light with this energy. Mars, the cosmic warrior, is exactly on the North Node in Aries; Eris, the goddess of discord and the sister of Mars, is right on the South Node of Karma in Libra.

Pluto forms a volatile and serious T-Square, and many people will feel the need to stir up power dynamics. Again, if something is really not for your best good, this Eclipse can eclipse relationships and relational patterns that are not healthy.

There will be a lot of breakups this Libra season. Uranus, the planet of the unexpected, is also inconjunct this New Moon Eclipse at 21 degrees and 6 minutes of Libra, and that could bring unexpected flareups, opportunities, and chaos.

Some great new partnerships will also occur, and there will be a very karmic undertone with the South Node on the New Moon. There is a Grand Trine in water with Mars, the planet of action, strong in Scorpio in house of manifestation; Saturn, the planet of structure, in Pisces in the house of value, skills, money, and resources, Vesta, the asteroid of hearth and home, in the sixth house of habits.

Take actions to bring value and health to your life. Do manifesting to help with money, hope, and healthy habits. LOVE Is the theme, and this recent Venus retrograde in Regulus reminded us of that, but it don’t come easy. You know it don’t come easy!

Remember to do the Law of Abundance on the Solar Eclipse in Libra. Date the check for October 14, 2023. Where it says, “Pay to the Order of,” print your full name. Where it says dollar amount, print, “Paid in Full.” At the bottom of the check, print, “The Law of Abundance. You have been re-evaluating all summer what is important to your heart, creativity, and happiness. Now is time to do something about it, and the charge is here! #astrology #horoscope #zodiac
