Astrological update for the week of September 13-20, 2021: Full Moon Rising

Retrograde update: We currently have five planets (including Chiron) in retrograde motion: Pluto, Saturn, Jupiter, Uranus, and Chiron. Mercury, in preparation for its retrograde turn on September 27th, has slowed down and we are in the “shadow phase” of the Mercury retrograde cycle, where communication becomes more personal and therefore more important. Mercury is retrograde when it is closest to Earth, and its influence becomes more critical. Once Mercury is retrograde there will be seven planets retrograde for a short time, the peak of the […]

11.19.20 More on Venus square Saturn, adding Black Moon Lilith

There are so many new feminine archetypes in the astrological pantheon. We’ve had Venus and the Moon for millenia, of course, and more recently the four major asteroids (Ceres, Pallas, Vesta and Juno). Black Moon Lilith has become a favorite of mine – she sits on my natal Pluto which explains a lot about my past history, and has been instrumental in the MeToo movement. She represents a primal rage against oppression, most particularly the oppression of the […]

artist unknown

For the past week Venus, in Libra where we seek more harmonious interactions and a refined sensibility has been challenging the Capricorn planets in a square first to Pluto on the 15th, then to Jupiter, and over the next day the final square to Saturn will culminate. Venus is also connected to money and values, and these challenging aspects have brought about a contraction in investment markets as the realities and cold hard facts of Capricorn begin to prevail. When the planet of connection (Venus) meets the planet of restriction […]

Capricorn Full Moon! July 14-15, 2011

The Capricorn Full Moon the 15th occurs with the Moon in Capricorn opposite the Cancerian Sun. Signs in opposition are like the Yin/Yang symbol – each sign contains what the other lacks, and the Full Moon requires that we integrate those opposing forces. The Cancerian Sun is concerned with family and feeling – a connection to our tribe and our ancestors. There is an emotional focus that personalizes everything we see. The Capricorn Moon is all about responsibilities and prefers to put […]

A week of Venus

art from occultopedia

Venus rules the skies this week.

Venus is the goddess of love and beauty, and her namesake planet presides over all things relating to interpersonal relationships, the force of attraction, aesthetics, values, sensuality, self-indulgence, harmony and balance. As Venus transits through the sky it is barely noticeable to us because it moves so quickly and its effect is so mild.

In its role in the governance of attraction, Venus is involved in matters of wealth and prosperity. Last week Venus made a square to Saturn (exact on the 6th) […]
