There’s a lot to talk about this week!  Grab a cuppa something and let’s dive in.

Mercury retrograde.  Mercury turns retrograde on September 27th, the day I am writing this, at which point we have  SIX retrograde planets, plus Chiron.  This is not as extreme as last year when every planet (seven) including Venus and Mars was retrograde for many weeks – Pluto, Saturn and Jupiter will all turn direct in October and the undertow of retrograde energies will be on the wane.  But don’t be surprised if […]

6.21.21 – A day to open the heart under Venus trine Neptune

It’s not always easy to open the heart, especially if we have been hurt or damaged in some way, or undergoing a transit of Saturn which can lead us easily into negative thinking, or if we lack trust, or if we are fearful of change.  There are many reasons keeping us from being able to soften around the heart and allow love to flow in and out, but there is one good reason to do so:  It’s the very reason that we are incarnated on the Earth.  If like me you have […]

The lovely planet Venus, ruler of beauty and connection and the creation of things which bring magic into our lives, harmonizes today with Neptune.  Neptune inspires us to transcend the mundane details of earthly life and explore realms of imagination and exalted experiences.  Both planets are concerned with matters of love: In Venus we find earthly love and relationship, and in Neptune we achieve the higher octave of divine, unconditional love and spiritual bliss.

Mars in Aries is semisextile (30 degrees) to […]

Planetary news this week, including Scorpio New Moon!

This week begins with a lovely Venus/Neptune trine to open the doors of affection and spiritual magic, and throughout the week we are blessed by a tightening conjunction from Jupiter to Ceres.  Jupiter is expansive and optimistic, and Ceres is all about nurturing the body, mind and spirit through food as well as energetic harmony, so this entire week carries that energy which helps us to pay more attention to how the ecology of our lives helps us to find greater balance and wisdom.

Then we go a little more deeply into […]

Taurus New Moon of power and majesty, May 18th

In the astrological pantheon, the zodiac signs are either cardinal (initiation), fixed (control) or mutable (adaptable).  The cardinal signs initiate and inspire action and leadership, the fixed signs ground and intensify, and the mutable signs disseminate and provide a way to move into the next cycle.

Taurus is one of those fixed signs that needs a high level of control and power, and the New Moon in Taurus urges us to ground and find stability in the midst of fluidity.  Under this combination of energies the grounding of the Taurus New Moon will […]
