2021 Aquarius stellium

2.18.21 Sun enters Pisces and we rediscover the art of flow

art by John Emanuel Shannon

Don’t get me wrong – there are still four planets in Aquarius (Saturn, Mercury, Jupiter and Venus) so the electrical energy of Aquarius and its power to shatter old paradigms is still plenty intense. Yesterday’s hard square from Saturn (structures) to Uranus (radical new ideas) will still exert a strong influence for the next few weeks (see the posts from the past few days if you missed them), so there’s no need to get too comfortable.  But the Sun’s movement into Pisces, the sign […]

2.12.21 Post New Moon Musings, and Venus conjunct Mercury

Yesterday’s Aquarius New Moon, at the time of an Aquarius stellium with six planetary bodies in one sign, is a significant portal which continues the transition into the Aquarian Age.  Aquarius (Universal Consciousness)  is one arm of the Fixed Cross – the other arms are Taurus (physical form), Leo (ego and personality) and Scorpio (emotions and passions).  Crosses and squares in astrology must be integrated; they create conflict which leads to a crisis of resolution. As we move more fully into the Aquarian Age (I would argue that we are already well […]

2.11.21 Peak Aquarius under the Aquarius New Moon

art by Paula Belle Flores

The New Moon in Aquarius takes place February 11th at 2:05 pm EST.  This is a pretty potent lunar event with several planetary alignments to bump up the intensity even more, opening up an opportunity to surrender all of the trappings of personality that culminated at the Leo Full Moon two weeks ago and opening up to a more universal perspective. At the New Moon the energies of the Sun and Moon are fused, linking the solar conscious ego to the instinctive lunar heart […]

2.9.21. The meaning of Saturn sextile Chiron: The shape of healing

art by Aegis Illustration

The first of three exact alignments between Saturn in Aquarius and Chiron in Aries takes place today. Chiron is the planet of wounding and healing, and it is instrumental in bridging the human experience between Saturn’s focus on the mundane and practical to Uranus, the planet which is symbolized by the pouring of wisdom from the stars to the earth.  For this reason, the symbolism of this harmonious sextile between Saturn and Chiron, healing the human personality, can help us to make that leap […]

This week’s update: Aquarius New Moon and stellium, and lots more

In honor of the Aquarius stellium which peaks this week with the Aquarius New Moon, this week’s video includes a pretty deep dive into the meaning of Aquarius as well as the New Moon.  Saturn is getting ready to square Uranus and the battle for control of the past (Saturn) against the breakdown of the past and the instigation of new paradigms (Uranus) begins.

Transcript is below! (gremlin problem fixed.)

2.3.21. Passion vs reason today with Scorpio and Aquarius

art by Alex Grey

The Aquarius stellium (see this week’s video for more on this) now consists of five planets so it’s pretty potent right now, shining this laser of Aquarian brilliance and scientific reason through the clouds of feelings and instincts.  Yet in the midst of this “woke” energy comes the Scorpio Moon, passionate and intense, reminding us that reason and detachment is not always all that it’s cracked up to be.  The Scorpio Moon has feelings, and demands to be recognized.

Today the Scorpio Moon […]

1.28.21. Venus conjunct Pluto at a big Jupiterian Leo Full Moon

artist unknown

The Moon is full in Leo on January 28, 2021 at 2:16 pm, emphasizing the need for a higher level of self-expression under Leo which still honors the needs of the collective under the Aquarius Sun.  The Sun is one of four planets in Aquarius, so there is a great deal of Aquarian focus on reason and rational thinking concerning that which is good for everyone and not just the individual.  But the Leo Full Moon is focused on the lunar energies which encourage self-value, self-esteem, and an ability to […]
