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.
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!

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
Charge the New Moon in Aquarius with your vision for the future!

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
