“If you can show people how to build castles, make sure you do not neglect building and nurturing your own.” – Suzy Kassem

Good afternoon!

Getting a late start here today! Spent nearly all morning trying to get my (Aries) miniature poodle to swallow his pill medication, to no avail. In his natal horoscope, he has his assertive Mars closely conjunct Saturn in oddball, stubborn Aquarius. Needless to say, he will not budge one iota when he’s deliberately made up his mind to be difficult/uncooperative. Ugh! 🙂

***

Waxing Luna spends most of today in comfort seeking Cancer.

She sextiles eclectic Uranus in Taurus mid-afternoon (2:55 pm) when we might be inspired/tempted to perk up our living space in unique/offbeat ways. This pleasant aspect may also help deliver sudden insights about what best nurtures or feeds us emotionally as well as possibly showering us with some novel ideas about how to add to our material security.

Later, Luna trines structuring Saturn in Pisces (4:52 pm). This potentially could be a stabilizing influence in which we may be more inclined to approach our affairs or goals in a more organized/responsible/mature manner. May also be favorable for setting up/erecting healthy emotional boundaries with others.

The Cancer Moon then enters confident Leo the Lion this evening (7:09 pm) and almost immediately throws a harmonious trine to visionary Neptune in Aries (7:23 pm). This may find us wanting to take action on our spiritual ideals or what we may perceive to be our soul’s special purpose. This is also the first time that the Leo Moon has aspected Neptune in Aries in nearly 160 years, so they will also, undoubtedly, have a lot to catch up on! 

Additionally, Moon-Neptune favors artistic or creative expression and with Luna now deposited in theatrical Leo, there’s potentially more of a flair for the dramatic. Of course, too, we have the Leo Full Moon tomorrow, so the energies are now nearing a crescendo point.

*All times EST

On This Day in History: The first daytime network TV soap opera – These Are My Children – debuts on January 31, 1949, and is broadcast live on Chicago’s NBC station. It’s the first in what will become an institution of daytime drama serials, many of which will be sponsored by soap manufacturers!

Astrologically, that day, dreamy, escapist Neptune in relationship-minded Libra was exactly trine to intellectual Mercury in trendsetting Aquarius, the sign that rules broadcasting. Too, Mercury-Neptune is typically perceived as an aspect that whets our appetite for immersion into such things as fairy tales/storytelling.

Also, love Goddess Venus and abundant Jupiter were conjunct in corporate Capricorn. Venus-Jupiter conjunctions are normally viewed as very favorable for financial prosperity, romance, and creative/artistic expression.

Hope it’s a good one! Please be safe and well.

“Do not let the memories of your past limit the potential of your future. There are no limits to what you can achieve on your journey through life, except in your mind.” – Roy T. Bennett

Good morning!

It appears the Universe is doling out loaves of sourdough bread – instead of mere crumbs today – with its benign, pleasant Mercury-Venus pairing (5:17 am) in egalitarian Aquarius. 🙂

Ideally, communicator Mercury’s conjunction with sweetheart Venus gives us a chance to collaborate/showcase our diplomatic side. However, since the water bearer’s overarching style is friendly, but detached, don’t expect to hear/utter anything too mushy or romantic at this time.

That said, it can be an excellent period to discuss/kick around new approaches/solutions to issues – especially if they are maybe a bit offbeat or out of the norm.

Too, we still have five planets in cutting-edge Aquarius, including the highly charged transformational Mars-Pluto conjunction, so our overall receptivity to trying/entertaining new concepts is potentially more pronounced.

On another level, today’s Mercury-Venus conjunction might be a boon for activities such as marketing, including launching social media or PR campaigns.

(Too, Democratic Senator Nancy Klobuchar (b. May 25, 1960) announced her candidacy for governor of Minnesota, earlier this morning. Ought to be interesting to see how her campaign goes as she will also have change-oriented Uranus conjunct her Sun for most of the second half of the year, an aspect which sometimes can feel a bit like a rollercoaster ride as the pace around us tends to quicken then.)

Is the world’s richest man – Elon Musk – a follower of astrology?

Reportedly, Musk told the Financial Times this week that he is considering targeting mid-June for his SpaceX IPO to coincide with the planetary alignment (conjunction) of Jupiter and Venus, typically an aspect associated with abundance and blessings (Jupiter), and having more of what we want or desire (Venus). Jupiter is also linked with long-distance travel, while Venus rules money.

Here’s an excerpt below from barrons.com on the story:

SpaceX is targeting a mid-June initial public offering that would coincide with a rare planetary alignment and founder Elon Musk’s birthday, the Financial Times reported on Wednesday, as the billionaire entrepreneur seeks to raise a record $50 billion.

The rocket company is planning its IPO for when Jupiter and Venus appear very close together in the sky — a conjunction that occurs for the first time in more than three years on June 8-9, the FT said, citing people familiar with the matter.

The timing, which the report said was subject to change, also aligns closely with June 28, Musk’s 54th birthday.

Astrology Brief January 27, 2026: Mars Conjuncts Pluto, Neptune in Aries

“Dare to live the life you have dreamed for yourself. Go forward and make your dreams come true.” –  Ralph Waldo Emerson

Good afternoon!

We kick off the last Tuesday in January with elusive Neptune – the planet of our colossal dreams, imagination, spirituality, and compassion – spending its first full day in pedal to the metal Aries! Neptune is a generational planet, and it will be hanging out in Aries until 2038-2039.

Too, just as Neptune was re-entering momentum-building Aries yesterday – after a short stay in the sign last year, from March to October  – it was announced by the Israeli military that the remains of the last hostage in Gaza were recovered from a cemetery in northern Gaza  – potentially  marking a significant development in the ongoing ceasefire and paving the way for the next phase of negotiations. (PBS)

Neptune is traditionally depicted in astrology as the “Great Dissolver” and its ray has often been activated/implicated when there have been efforts to arrive at more peaceful/unifying solutions to end (Aries-ruled) conflicts.

Personally, and collectively, Neptune is widely regarded as helping to sensitize us to the pain or misfortune that others are feeling/experiencing.

***

Today, energizer Mars, the planetary ruler of the sign of the ram, is also exactly conjunct power-seeking, mass influencer Pluto in Aquarius, the sign of the water bearer, which symbolizes the flow of ideas (6:02 pm).

When these two heavenly bodies team up (which they do about every two years) the thought among many astrologers is to potentially expect some really big transformational (Pluto) stuff/elements to occur in society as well as in our personal lives.

Aquarius represents change, innovation, technology, social justice issues, and generally more progressive/humanitarian type thinking. 

Mars conjunct Pluto is also often characterized as a period when we are more apt to want to stand up for/defend our beliefs and values, especially when deposited in individualistic Aquarius which sometimes finds us wanting to do battle with the status quo.

Too, Aquarius is a fixed sign and can be very stubborn, so with Mars-Pluto aligned in Aquarius, on the shadow side, there may be a tendency to dig our heels in and not budge from our agendas.

Too, CNBC.com is reporting, just now, that Tik-Tok has agreed to settle a social media addiction trial that was slated to kick off today, with Meta and YouTube going forward with it. CNBC states online that the trial is the first of multiple major legal cases against (Aquarian-ruled) social media companies in 2026 that have drawn comparisons to lawsuits brought against ‘Big Tobacco’ in the 1990s.

Ought to be interesting to see how these suits play out! Not sure there’s always a clear path to proving addiction though.

Too, in the short-term, Mars-Pluto energy is seen as excellent for getting at the truth or exposing what has possibly been hidden. Neptune is also associated with addictive behavior.

“Don’t worry when you are not recognized but strive to be worthy of recognition.” – Abraham Lincoln

On this very first Monday in 2026, the proud “Leo the Lion” Moon is in it Waning Gibbous Phase and quincunx to Venus, the Sun, and Mars – all deposited in worldly ambitious Capricorn; quincunx aspects often signal the need to make adjustments.

A possible theme for today: How do we placate, pay homage, or brilliantly integrate our presumed oversized emotional need for recognition/praise/power now (Leo Moon) while also carrying out the daily grind of our noble life purpose (Sun in Capricorn)? 🙂

Luna in Leo also craves creative self-expression.

In Business News: Perhaps a knee-jerk response to Nicolas Maduro’s capture over the weekend, but Chevron and other energy stocks are up premarket on the notion that the companies would benefit from building Venezuela’s oil infrastructure. Gold and bitcoin prices also gained. (CNBC.com)

Neptune, which symbolizes oil in astrology, is currently at the tail end of Pisces and is poised to re-enter the “new beginnings” sign of Aries on January 26, where it will stay until May 21, 2038.

Meanwhile, Maduro is also slated to appear midday in a NYC courtroom on drug trafficking charges just as the Leo Moon quincunxes assertive Mars in rules-making/law-enforcing Capricorn.

Astrology Brief for January 3, 2026: A Full Moon in Cancer

Cosmic Weather:

“All the knowledge I possess everyone else can acquire, but my heart is all my own.” – Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

Occurring today is the first Full Moon of 2026, at 13 degrees of nurturing Cancer (5:03 am), which puts a potential spotlight on honoring/integrating our need for emotional security and safety around us while simultaneously pursuing our external drives or worldly ambitions (Capricorn).

Today’s Cancer Moon opposes the Sun, Venus, and Mars all deposited in persevering, strategic Capricorn.

As Full Moons coincide with culminations/turning points, this lunation may shed a light on what it is that we truly value and want in our lives (Venus) and what actions (Mars) we are willing to take to acquire it.

“Working hard for something we don’t care about is called stress. Working hard for something we love is called passion.” – Simon Sinek

We may also want to wait a few days before acting upon any of the fresh awarenesses that may arise during this Full Moon in order to give them time to settle.

*All times EST

Breaking News:

The U.S. captured and extracted Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife in a military and law-enforcement operation early Saturday (today), according to President Trump. Maduro’s capture comes after months of U.S. pressure on his regime, including the seizure of oil tankers off Venezuela’s coast, aerial attacks on alleged drug-smuggling boats and a CIA strike inside the country. Venezuela called the attack an act of U.S. military aggression against its capital as well as in the states of Miranda, La Guaira and Aragua. (Wall Street Journal)

Astrologically, in addition to the Full Moon today, the authoritative Sun (denoting power or leadership) and warrior Mars (which governs the military) are nearing an exact conjunction (perfecting on January 9). Conjunctions signify new beginnings.

Sun-Mars aspects are commonly regarded as highly charged in nature and are often synonymous with, among other things, direct confrontations, feeling an increased sense of confidence, taking fearless/courageous actions, a propensity for acting swiftly without delay.

The sign of Capricorn is also associated with positions of power or top leadership, and it rules government.

Of course, the big question on many of our minds now: what comes next?

Today’s Birthdays: American Quaker, abolitionist, and women’s right activist, Lucretia Mott (1793 – 1880); British author J.R.R. Tolkien (1892 – 1973) whose works include The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. He once wrote:

“All that is gold does not glitter; not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither; deep roots are not reached by the frost.”

Astrology January 1, 2026: Happy New Year! Mercury Squares Neptune

01 Thursday Jan 2026

Cosmic Weather:

“And now we welcome the new year, full of things that have never been” – Rainer Maria Rilke

On this very first day of 2026, we are treated to mental Mercury, in scholarly Sagittarius, exactly square to transcendent Neptune in Pisces (8:33 am) – suggesting an honorable, noble search for deeper meaning now could potentially get hijacked by a few tempting, time-consuming rabbit holes savagely dotting our, otherwise, inspired path. 🙂

Probably also not very helpful that we have the Waxing Moon deposited in ever curious, scattering Gemini, which Mercury rules!

Astrologically, Mercury-Neptune pairings are often described, on the shadow side, as foggier periods cerebrally, when we may be muddling through intimidating gaps of information/misinformation. Even outright deception or lies!

On a cheerier, more redemptive note, however, Mercury-Neptune aspects are also equated with perceived surges in imagination, creativity, sensitivity and compassion. Our nocturnal dreams may also be especially vivid now.

Later in the day, the winged messenger Mercury exits outgoing Sagittarius to take up a three-week occupancy in the more worldly-ambitious, practical, subdued sign of Capricorn (4:11 pm), joining the Sun, Venus, and Mars already stationed there.

This placement of Mercury, in persevering Capricorn, ideally helps us to make our dreams and goals a reality by fostering a more step-by-step approach in relation to our thoughts and ideas. It is also associated with a more guarded/circumspect communication style. Some cynicism/crustiness may also be thrown into the mix, for good measure!

“Every ounce of my cynicism is supported by historical precedent.” – Glen Cook, Shadow Games

*All times EST

On This Day in History: On January 1,1818, Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein” or, “The Modern Prometheus,” is published anonymously by the small London publishing house of Lackington, Hughes, Harding, Mavor, & Jones.

One of the best-known works of English literature, Shelley was only eighteen years old when she began writing the Gothic novel, completing it at age 20.

Astrologically on the publication date, there was a stellium of planets (Uranus, Venus, Neptune, and Jupiter) conjunct in master story-teller Sagittarius, the sign which also rules publishing. Transformational Pluto in Pisces was additionally squaring this lineup; Pluto is associated with, among other things, darker themes and issues of power or control.

Hope it’s a good one! Please be safe and well.

Cosmic Weather:

“Exploring consciousness means expanding our vision, but it also means honoring the ground beneath our feet. The vast and the ordinary are not opposites. They are partners.” – Donna Goddard

On this last Monday of 2025, Waxing Luna shifts from trailblazing Aries to anchoring Taurus (6:57 am) as our focus becomes more practical/security-minded, with the sign of the bull governing, among other things, money and possessions. The Moon will remain in Taurus until New Year’s Eve morning.

The Taurus energy is also a nice match for the present heavenly lineup in tradition-minded Capricorn, which includes the Sun, Venus, Mars, and Vesta; Juno – representing our attitude towards relationships – also enters the dutiful sign of the goat, this morning (9:34 am).

Additionally, motivating Mars is in easy aspect to the Lunar Nodes today suggesting an opportunity to more effortlessly align with our desires and purpose.

The fiery red planet is also viewed to be exalted in Capricorn, in part, because its perceived assertiveness is thought to combine well with Capricorn’s reputation for discipline.

Meanwhile, Luna also forms a square to purging Pluto in Aquarius (11:24 am), perhaps underscoring the notion that sometimes, in order for us to have more, we have to let go!

Too, this aspect should serve as a boon for those of us who are now fully encapsulated in assorted year-end decluttering projects. 🙂

Psychology Today recently ran an article that stated decluttering and organizing our space can actually help to lower the levels of the stress hormone cortisol in our bodies by promoting a sense of calm and well-being.

*All times EST

In the news: The precious metal silver topped $80 for the first time ever, in overnight trading, before reversing course and falling more than 3% today. Silver is up more than 155% year to date, after starting 2025 just above $20 per ounce (CNBC). Some regard silver as a good hedge against inflation, although its price performance, over the years, has been inconsistent here. About half of all silver is used in industrial production.

In astrology, silver is ruled by Cancer and, of course, expansive, abundant Jupiter has been hanging out in that sign since early June of this year. Of course, while Jupiter’s placement in Cancer doesn’t necessarily translate to causation, it’s kind of fun to watch to see how it all plays out.

Hope it’s a good one! Please be safe and well.

Cosmic Weather:

“What is imperative is to keep the momentum going. The difference between success and failure is very thin. The urge to win must be like a hunger inside you.” – Avijeet Das

With emotional Luna in her Waxing Gibbous phase and darting through athletic, fiery Aries, we may be feeling a rush of momentum now to get things done as we head towards the Cancer Full Moon on January 3rd.

This is an excellent time to take initiative, act independently, be courageous, while also taking steps/actions to safeguard our own interests or security (Luna square Jupiter, 4:59 pm).

The Moon’s monthly conjunction with Chiron (6:26 pm) also allows us the opportunity to embrace our vulnerabilities or advocate for those whose voices we don’t often hear.

Additionally, Luna’s trine to communicator Mercury in Sagittarius (9:13 pm) ignites idealistic ideas and the chance for open dialogue.

*All times EST

On This Day in History: On December 28, 1981, Elizabeth Jordan Carr was born in Norfolk, Virginia, becoming the first American test-tube baby. Her birth marked a significant advancement in reproductive technology, offering hope to countless couples struggling with infertility. The successful use of in vitro fertilization (IVF) paved the way for future developments in assisted reproductive techniques. (Wikipedia)

Interestingly enough, expansive Jupiter, associated with broadening our horizons and understanding, was in Scorpio at 5 degrees, at the time of Carr’s birth – the astrological sign that governs reproduction. Jupiter was also applying to an exact waning sextile to the life-giving Sun at 6 degrees of Capricorn. Sun-Jupiter aspects are often perceived to be lucky or advantageous in nature and bode well for learning, growth, and experimentation.

Hope it’s a good one! Please be safe and well! I’m also looking forward to being back with you here on a more regular basis (keeping fingers crossed!).

Cosmic Weather:

“Your soul knows the geography of your destiny.” – John O’Donohue

April kicks off with relationship Venus Rx conjunct the futuristic North Node in Pisces, ideally aiding us in the forging or re-forging of ties/situations/outlets that may more seamlessly point us in the direction of our soul’s growth. There may also be greater ability to smooth over frictions, show empathy, express our creativity.

Meanwhile, Luna is now in her Waxing Crescent Phase in grounding Taurus (until 4:26 pm), emitting 15% illumination; the right edge of the Moon is all that’s visible to the naked eye.

Too, Luna is quite busy today forming several aspects. It’s wrap up passage through the sign of the bull favors, among other things, consolidating our efforts, including firming up elements of our financial/material world, as best we can. Remember: “Liberation Day” is tomorrow, April 2nd! 🙂

Additionally, Luna’s monthly conjunction with game changing Uranus (7:56 am), may suddenly jolt us into wanting to add something new or exciting to our daily routines or at least may entice us to see things from a fresh perspective.

The Moon’s late day ingress into curious Gemini (4:26 pm), may power up our intuition with its nice sextile aspect to Neptune (4:34 pm), while its flowing trine to mysterious Pluto may find us eager to channel our inner detective.

“There is nothing more deceptive than an obvious fact.” – Arthur Conan Doyle, The Boscombe Valley Mystery – A Sherlock Holmes Short Story.

On This Day in History: On April 1, 1826, American inventor Samuel Morey is issued the first U.S. patent for an internal-combustion engine, which he calls a “Gas or Vapor Engine.”

Astrologically, that day, there was a stellium in trailblazing Aries (Pluto, Sun, Venus, and Chiron) while energizing Mars, Aries ruler, was retrograde in transformative Scorpio and sextile (2 degrees) to innovative Uranus in achievement-oriented Capricorn. Mars-Uranus influences often figure prominently with respect to spawning inventions or breakthroughs.

Samuel Morey was also a pioneer in steamships who racked up a total of 20 patents.

Astrology March 30, 2025: Neptune Enters Aries

Cosmic Weather:

“More smiling, less worrying. More compassion, less judgment. More blessed, less stressed. More love, less hate.” – Roy T. Bennett

Neptune enters Aries (7:59 am) –

First off, Neptune, the coldest planet in the Solar System (with an average temperature of minus 392 F), will only be making a test-run of Aries now to show us a quick, general layout of the land. In late October, it will re-enter Pisces, for three months, before moving back into the sign of the ram, late January of 2026, where it will continue to chill until early 2039.

Neptune symbolizes, among other things, idealism, compassion, spirituality, and dreams. It’s also linked to creativity and imagination. On the flip side, it rules delusion, deceit, and addiction.

Aries, meanwhile – the first sign of the zodiac – is tied with self-identity, assertiveness, fresh starts, and competitiveness. It’s also associated with the defense world i.e. the military-industrial complex (a term reportedly first coined by Malcolm Moos, a speechwriter for US President Dwight D. Eisenhower who used the phrase in his farewell address in January of 1961).

Briefly, it could be that Neptune’s ingress into action-oriented Aries might, among other things, inspire us to lean more into our faith, idealism, or creativity, in carving out new beginnings for ourselves. At the same time – on the shadow side – we may need to be more cognizant of being too immersed in “flights of fancy” or believing or putting forth narratives about ourselves that are untrue or self-sabotaging.

On This Day in History: On March 30, 1867, the United States buys Alaska from Russia for $7,200,000 (109 million in 2018 dollars), roughly 2 cents an acre. The acquisition – the brainchild of US Secretary of State William Seward – was referred to as “Seward’s Folly” as some opponents felt that the purchase was “useless land.” Kind of like how the Louisiana Purchase was originally viewed by those who were opposed to it.

Astrologically, the empowering Sun at the time was applying (three degrees) to an exact conjunction with visionary Neptune in pioneering Aries.  The planetary ruler of Aries – energizer Mars – was also deposited in security-minded Cancer (where it is today). Cancer rules, among other things, land and real estate, as well as home and family. Additionally, money maven Venus and expansive Jupiter, the two benefic planets, were in a one-degree conjunction in futuristic Aquarius, an alignment that is often deemed very fortuitous.

“Seward’s Folly? Alaska’s riches have proven its wisdom.” – Mark Twain
