The January 2020 New Moon in Aquarius brings wonder and awakening

After a month or so of earthy Capricorn energy, including the Saturn and Pluto conjunction (read more about that here) the pressure is beginning to release. Earth energy is wonderful for building and planning, for maintaining a practical view of life. But if there is too much earth and not enough air, which is what we have experienced recently, we begin to lack objectivity and find ourselves rooted with no sense of real purpose. The air element adds objectivity […]

Planetary news this week! A blast of liberation and an eclipse

This week is packed with planetary juju leading up to the eclipse. A harmonious sextile from Mars to Saturn and Pluto is just behind us but the energies of calm and powerful strength still linger to offer a strong foundation from which we can create. With the Sun having moved into Capricorn at the Solstice, we now have a stellium of four planets in grounded Capricorn and most of the planets bundled together forming a powerful concentration and focus between Scorpio and Aquarius.

Stelliums and bundles are typically more powerful than a […]

Ceres in Capricorn – practical ways to save the planet, and ourselves

Art by Jessica Galbraith

(A portion of this post comes from this much longer article if you’d like to read more.) . Ceres was first discovered in 1801 and immediately classified as a planet. When Neptune was discovered in 1846, it was much larger than the other asteroids and was therefore retained as a planet and the others were demoted to the asteroid belt along with thousands more asteroids that were discovered over the next 200 years. In 2006 when Pluto was reclassified […]

How the next recession will happen: An astrological view

Click to enlarge

Economists struggle to understand the ebb and flow of markets and attempt to find reasons why a market will expand and contract. Astrologers have better tools. They’re not perfect enough to depend on for day to day trading – there are too many variables. One’s own planetary cycles, the peculiarities of each individual company, the global atmosphere and how each individual nation is affected by planetary cycles. But what we can do is observe the larger planetary cycles to predict a general atmosphere of expansion and then contraction.

While […]

Embed from Getty Images

This was originally posted in January 2019 but has been updated to reflect the availability of her birth time. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was recently elected to the US House of Representatives from the 14th District of New York – the youngest woman ever to be elected to Congress. Not only that, she is in the middle of her first Saturn Return.

The Saturn Return happens to each of us every 28-30 years when Saturn, traveling through its orbit around the Sun, returns to the degree of the sign that it holds in our natal astrological chart. Because Saturn represents the virtues […]

The Jupiter/Neptune square of 2019: Dissolving limitations and boundaries

Deviant Art

One of the more significant planetary cycles of 2019 is a powerful square (90 degree) dynamic between Jupiter and Neptune. Jupiter and Neptune are connected through their mutual rulership of the sign Pisces: Jupiter is the traditional ruler and Neptune the modern ruler of Pisces. Jupiter and Neptune share an expansive view of the world, and a desire to bring true meaning into our lives. However, Jupiter’s focus is more on the expansion of the Self through a pursuit of meaning and Truth whereas Neptune’s […]

An astrological forecast for 2019

A quick look back

There is a famous Chinese curse that goes something along the lines of “May you live in an interesting age” and that is certainly true of the time that we are living in at the moment. Fortunately we have at our disposal a tool to make some sense of the chaos that we sometimes see around us: An understanding of planetary cycles. While it’s difficult to predict specific events that will take place under a particular planetary cycle, we ARE able to get a sense of the […]

Social media, depression and Pluto in Sagittarius

Recent news articles have warned of a growing epidemic of depression, loneliness and isolation due to social media. While social media ostensibly makes it easier to connect with others, online contacts do not have the same quality of connection as face to face communication. In addition, we often forget that our online presence is carefully curated to show only the highlights of people’s lives and not the backstory, and our lives pale in comparison. This is especially true of Instagram, where professional influencers use carefully crafted images to sell products based on […]

The seeds of the Capricorn stellium are blooming now

Steven Forrest has posted a lovely video discussing the travel of Uranus, Neptune and Saturn through Capricorn in the 1980s and 1990s and you can watch it here. Steven was my first teacher and I respect him greatly – his books The Inner Sky and The Changing Sky are required reading for beginners and really, for anyone who hasn’t read them.
