The astrology of the week of November 1, 2021: It’s all about Scorpio

This week we have a New Moon in Scorpio, and it’s a SuperMoon, Mars has just entered Scorpio, the Sun is already in Scorpio, and Mercury moves into Scorpio this week. Under the influence of Scorpio there is nowhere to hide: life becomes a deep dive into the most intense search for meaning we can imagine.

In addition, the challenging square between Saturn and Uranus, the story of 2021 over control vs liberty, is activated by Mars this month, but that activation actually begins this week with the Scorpio New Moon triggering […]

The offering of the lunar eclipse on November 30, 2020

The Gemini Full Moon on November 30th (at 4:29 am EST) is also a penumbral lunar eclipse. A lunation (New or Full Moon) becomes an eclipse when it is adjacent to the lunar nodes (the crossing points of the path of the Moon over the path of the Sun), and the closer the lunation is to the nodes, the more total the eclipse is and the more intense the fated quality of the eclipse will be. The lunar nodes are […]

11.11.20 Mercury re-enters Scorpio and the truths come out of the darkness

art by Laurie Bain Hamilton

This is not a political post! But when Mercury, planet of the mind and information, travels through Scorpio, the sign of the dark night, there is a passionate intensity that causes us to delve beneath the superficial for the real truths. Even in today’s political climate where there seems to be more spin than facts, we can discover for ourselves where our own spirit can be infused with the fire of wisdom and true understanding that Mercury in Scorpio bestows by taking […]

Astrological update for the week of November 9, 2020: Scorpio New SuperMoon, Mars direct, and lots lots more

There’s so much to talk about this week, and the video went a bit longer than usual. I’m using timecodes now so you can go right to the parts that interest you, and it also makes it easier to go back to things you want to listen to a second or third time. The Moon is New in Scorpio this week, and it’s a SuperMoon (I’ll be writing a blog article about that too a little later in the week). Mars turns direct this week. Mercury goes back into Scorpio. And it’s the final phase of Jupiter conjunct Pluto, and […]

Planetary news this week! Tiptoeing into the realm of Pluto

September 30-October 7, 2019

Like the other two outer planets, Pluto is retrograde about half the year. This cycle of the ebb and flow of planets appearing to travel backwards, completing their tasks, and then moving ahead as normal is an important part of the astrological flow of life. Though we often complain about Mercury retrograde, for example, these periods give us an opportunity to go back and re-do whatever had not yet been completed before we attempted to put them away, and therefore […]

Planetary news this week: October 23, 2017

This week brings some shifts in energies as the Sun moves into Scorpio, beginning the Scorpio season of darkness, myth and magic. With the mind already processing the inner workings of the psyche now that Mercury is in Scorpio, and Jupiter’s entry into Scorpio squeezes out the nasty secrets in the entertainment business as well as the political realm (both Jupiter’s realm), we can no longer hide from the difficult and the dark.

On a positive note, challenging conversations may become easier under the influence of Scorpio, and our personal path to […]

Stock market optimism continues a little longer

The conjunction of Jupiter to Uranus is still creating optimism in the markets that defy the news: “U.S. stocks closed higher Monday as investors were encouraged by earnings from Citigroup and a measure of home-builder confidence that topped expectations.” (read more here…)

Jupiter is the planet of confidence, and in tandem with Uranus it seeks sudden changes and liberation from negativity. The combination of these two planets is not the most realistic time in the world, and we are seeing this manifesting in the market, which rebounded today based on […]
