Planetary news this week: Taurus New Moon and a challenge to overcome

Astrological update for the week of May 15-22, 2023

Planets changing signs bring about a shift in human consciousness, and when three planetary bodies change signs in one week it can be very enervating. There is a strong Taurus signature, with Jupiter entering Taurus and a Taurus New Moon, so the drive for peaceful experiences is a strong one. However, the Sun enters Gemini at the end of the week and opens up the door to Gemini season which is much more active, so […]

Jupiter in Taurus 2023-2024

Jupiter will be in Taurus from May 16, 2023 to May 25, 2024. What can we expect?

About Jupiter. Jupiter is the planet of optimism and faith, and it also describes the way we find meaning in life. Jupiter rules religion and philosophy in the crafting of beliefs and world views which help us to structure our perspectives and values. Jupiter is the teacher and the one which inspires us towards grand objectives as well as grandiosity. As astrologer Deb Houlding writes,

We think of Jupiter as the planet of increase and […]

The astrology of Marianne Williamson

My original plan was to continue profiling the candidates (see other posts in the series here) in their polling order, and I frankly didn’t think Marianne Williamson would stay in the race as long as she has. But she continues to raise money and attract voters to her events and she has said that she will continue her run for the presidency.

Williamson is an unlikely presidential candidate, which is what makes her interesting. After a youth spent, as she says, “mired in a series of unhappy love affairs, alcohol and drug […]

Astrology in my world: The falling away of things I know to be true

Art from Third Eye Tapestries

Astrology gets a bad rap for being unable to reliably predict the future. The fact is, while astrology reveals the underlying order of things, it does not reveal the future. Through astrology we can know when there is potential for difficulty, but everyone experiences these cycles differently, and they are experienced differently at different times.

As I write this today at the end of November, I have just found out that a brilliant astrologer that I have worked with over the years, Dawn Bodrogi, just died. […]

“When will we see the end of these difficult planetary cycles?”

Someone left this question in a comment recently, and I quite frequently hear this question from clients. It’s a difficult one to answer because there are so many layers of planetary cycles that begin on the personal level with your own astrological chart that is affected by planetary movements. Then we have the astrological chart of the nation in which we live that undergoes planetary cycles which affect the political landscape. Expanding even further, we have the dances of the slower moving planets including Saturn, Chiron, and the outer planets […]

Jupiter square Pluto, Phase II: the Death of Truth

Jupiter and Pluto are locked in a battle of wills in the sky right now – the second phase of the challenging square (90 degree) aspect that began last November.

Jupiter and Pluto both have something to do with the idea of truth. Jupiter, a personal planet, represents our own individual truth – the philosophies and ideas about truth (theology) that we formulate for ourselves and then share with others in religions or through publishing these ideas. Pluto, a transformational planet, is concerned more […]

Jupiter square Pluto: The Press vs Autocrat

Yesterday President Trump’s press secretary Sean Spicer banned CNN and the New York Times from the daily press briefings. Trump has long had a contentious relationship with the mainstream media that he calls “fake news,” and his communications staff coined the term “alternative facts” to describe claims that do not fit the traditional definition of “true.”

Jupiter presides over the communication of shared ideas and is associated with journalism and the press as well as religion, theology and philosophy. Pluto is the planet of power, as well as destruction and regeneration. […]

Cancerian Full Moon, January 12th: Balance, stability and Magic

As we approach the Cancer Full Moon on January 12th, a harmonious Mars cycle helps to energize us and shake off inertia. We are inspired now for transformation and are likely to feel more alive and aware which will help us to find greater balance during this lunar time where much goes on beyond the superficial level of daily consciousness.

Full Moons always include some tension since the Sun in Capricorn with its focus on practicality and the ends justifying the means, is exactly opposite […]

The Astrology of 2017: An Overview

Looking for a listing of all planetary events for 2017? You will find it here.

The magic of astrology operates on a variety of different levels – at the microcosmic levels the movement of the planets affect our daily lives and define the trends that mark our passage through time. Those periods where we feel like everything is difficult? A Saturn cycle. The times when everything falls out of our grasp and we are forced to start anew whether we like it or not? Blame it […]

The Jupiter/Pluto dance: What it means for you

Jupiter, beloved by many as the planet of beneficent good fortune, is in Libra now where it is bringing its expansive qualities into the realm of diplomacy, beauty and a search for harmony. This all sounds lovely, but things are about to get more intense as Jupiter is about to face off against Pluto, planet of ultimate transformation.
