COSMIC WATCH:

What may have been submerged in the depths, floats to the surface now with the Sun’s sextile to “penetrating” Pluto. This is a period when digging and probing may yield big results. Additionally, Sun-Pluto can be very transforming and revitalizing. The Moon also continues in “deliberate, slow-moving” Taurus, during the day, helping us to stay focused and productive. Tonight, Luna’s shift into “changeable” Gemini (10:27 pm EST) tends to disperse our attention. “The person who does not scatter the morning dew will not comb gray hairs.” Hunter S. Thompson

February 28 Birthdays: Tommy Tune, Bernadette Peters

What would you like to get to the bottom of today?

Astrology February 25, 2012: Sun Sextiles Abundant Jupiter

COSMIC WATCH:

Jupiter, the planet of optimism and opportunity, is in harmonious alignment with the Sun, our power source and sense of self. The Moon is also in “pioneering” Aries. We are encouraged to act with confidence today and to mingle socially with others, particularly with those who are perceived to be authority figures or our superiors (Sun), as we have a chance to really shine now in their presence, which could help us to get ahead. The energy of the day is also conducive for undertaking new personal beginnings, or making headway with our goals.  With Sun-Jupiter, we are better able to see the “big picture” view of things, although we still do need to be attentive to the details.

Jupiter is also in “money and possession sign” Taurus and it is interesting that yesterday, as this influence was applying, the S & P’s 500-stock index closed at its highest level since 2008, on the heels of better-than-expected reports on home sales and consumer sentiment (wsj.com). Jupiter, which is linked with abundance, is often billed as the “cosmic Santa.” Jupiter is also applying to a positive trine to Pluto, which will be exact in a couple weeks. Pluto is associated with mega-wealth.

Famous Persons with Sun Sextile Jupiter: Madonna, Elvis Presley, Albert Camus, Prince Andrew of England.

February 25 Birthdays: Rudolph Steiner, Jim Backus

Today’s Affirmation: I am grateful for all that I have. I am also appreciative of the Universe for generously tending to all of my needs.

What are you going to reach for today?

Enjoy your Saturday!

Astrology February 21, 2012: New Moon in Pisces

21 Tuesday Feb 2012

COSMIC WATCH:

A New Moon in “compassionate” Pisces is taking place today (5:35 pm EST). We have a chance to align ourselves with the more “soulful” vibrations of this sign, as a way of renewal now. Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac, a space in which we put aside our ego and earthly ambitions to focus on nurturing our “inner world,” the domain of our feelings, dreams, imagination, creativity and intuition. In The Power of Intention, Wayner Dyer writes that our imagination is “God within us.”

Today’s New Moon is also conjunct “transcendent” Neptune in Pisces, something that has not happened in 165 years. Neptune is the modern day ruler of Pisces. It is also the planet that formally governs our imagination. Neptune is linked with prophecy, scripture, clerics, mystics, saints, angels, artists, poets, musicians, and healers. Neptune and Pisces also preside over those persons who could be described as “downtrodden,” or down on their luck. Also, they both govern disenfranchised elements, minority groups, civil rights’ matters, and individuals with addiction issues.

Interestingly, on the eve of the Sun’s conjunction with Neptune, last weekend, Pope Benedict announced seven new saints and also appointed 22 new Cardinals. Too, we had the high-profile funeral or “going home” ceremony for singer Whitney Houston, someone who also publicly struggled with substance abuse issues. On another level, Neptune rules oil, and headlines about rising gas prices have been dominating the news, the last few days.

We will want to note “the house” in our personal horoscopes that the New Moon is falling in, as that is the area of our life where we may be feeling more of a need for reflection now. It is also where we have a chance to be more creative, and where we can set powerful new intentions for ourselves. Too, it may be where we may be called upon to give back to others now. “The value of a man resides in what he gives and not in what he is capable of receiving.” Albert Einstein

“Some New Moon in Pisces activities: going on spiritual retreats; meditation; yoga and breath work; house blessings; photography; film-making; acting; painting; dancing and choreography; singing and songwriting; swimming; fishing; boating; spa treatments; costume-design; beauty-makeovers; purchasing cosmetics; volunteering; pet rescue and adoption; going to plays, movies; psychic development; séances; random acts of kindness; visiting shut-ins or others who are confined; tithing; pardoning, and other acts of forgiveness.

Happy New Moon Blessings!

Astrology February 16, 2012: Mercury Sextiles Jupiter

COSMIC WATCH:

The Moon spends one more day in “scholarly” Sagittarius and with intellectual Mercury forming a harmonious sextile aspect to “teacher” Jupiter, the ruler of Sagittarius, this is an excellent day to expand our knowledge of the world, including the realm of foreign cultures. We are also more inclined to want to write about or discuss with others what we have learned so far on our journey of life, particularly sharing our philosophy of life. Mercury-Jupiter is specifically linked with the publishing world, academia, philosophy and religion, the travel industry, matters of law, advertising and promotion, and is generally viewed by astrologers as more favorable for contracts and agreements due to the abundant and protective nature of Jupiter.

Too, if we have been harboring a more pessimistic view of things in a certain area of our lives, we may want to revisit that area today and see if we can approach it now with a more positive or optimistic mindset, as Mercury-Jupiter is an excellent aspect for allowing us to see possibilities where maybe before we were unable to envision them.  Also, today would be an ideal day to make a vision board regarding our future intentions for ourselves. “The future is simply infinite possibility waiting to happen. What it waits on is human imagination to crystallize its possibility.” Leland Kaiser

February 16 Birthdays: Sonny Bono, Margaux Hemingway, John McEnroe

What is possible for you today?

Astrology February 15, 2012: Venus Squares Pluto

15 Wednesday Feb 2012

COSMIC WATCH:

The “philosophical” Sagittarius Moon prompts us to take a “big picture view” of things. The ruler of Sagittarius, expansive Jupiter, is also in a 135-degree alignment with energetic Mars. This Mars-Jupiter influence can give rise to unbridled enthusiasm which can result in our going a little bit overboard, if we are not careful. We can, however, turn this energy into a win-win situation for ourselves by simply not over-committing our time or resources and practicing some restraint in what we say and do.

Venus, ruling relationships, is also square to intense Pluto, which governs the realm of our subconscious. With this Venus-Pluto aspect, buried or suppressed feelings tend to emerge, clamoring for our attention like a young child. While we may be very wise to acknowledge their presence and reflect upon why they are surfacing now, and what they have to teach us, we must also keep in mind that they are only temporary house guests passing through and not permanent residents we are stuck with, particularly if the emotions that are arising now are more of a shadow nature.

On the plus side, Venus-Pluto can be very insightful for fostering awareness concerning how we may need to change or restructure our relationships in order to allow for more personal growth within those alliances. We may also want to keep in mind today that all of our power comes from within and by trying to control other people only serves to ultimately dis-empower us in the end. Another shadow manifestation of Venus-Pluto can be a tendency to use manipulation with others to achieve our own ends instead of honoring and respecting other people’s boundaries and desires. Too, we often act this way when we are feeling threatened or are fearful of losing the love that we desire. “Ultimately, the only power to which man should aspire is that which he exercises over himself.” Elie Wiesel

February 15 Birthdays: Harvey Korman, Chris Farley

What action can you take today to deepen or strengthen your relationships?

COSMIC WATCH:

This Valentine’s Day begins with the Moon deposited in “passionate” Scorpio, which will likely intensify our emotions and desires. However, tonight, the ambience around us is much lighter with the Moon’s entrance into “exuberant, fun-loving” Sagittarius (7:57 pm EST). Too, Luna’s square to fantasy Neptune, in dreamy Pisces (8:41 pm EST), poises us to imagine sweet visions of “happy ever after” with our beloved. “My soul will find yours.” Jude Deveraux

February 14 Birthdays: Jimmy Hoffa, Phyllis McGuire, Mike Bloomberg.

What is most important to you in a love relationship?

Happy Valentine’s Day! May Cupid’s arrow find a direct path to your heart.

Astrology February 13, 2012: Mercury Trines Saturn, Enters Pisces

COSMIC WATCH:

We are able to get to the bottom of things today (Scorpio Moon) and our thoughts are also more serious and focused (Mercury trine Saturn). This is an excellent day for any strategic or long-term planning and for enlisting the advice of trusted associates who we regard as mentors or experts in their field.

Later, Mercury’s entrance into “mystical” Pisces (8:38 pm EST) provides us with the desire to study more abstract areas. We may also find that with Mercury here, the next three weeks, our logical, analytical thinking is forsaken in favor of intuition and psychic hunches. “Follow your instincts. That’s where true wisdom manifests.” Oprah Winfrey

February 13 Birthdays: Kim Novak, Jerry Springer, George Segal

When do you know to go with your intuition over logic and reasoning?

Astrology February 11, 2012: Moon is in Libra

COSMIC WATCH:

With the Moon in “balancing” Libra, the sign of the scales, it may be easier for us to weigh our options, or to stand in different perspectives today. That’s one reason why the backdrop of the Libra Moon is normally regarded as favorable for collaboration or mediation, as we are usually better able to glean or entertain opposing viewpoints with it. Too, often by merely playing around with or shifting our perceptions, we may discover that we feel more energy inside of us. We quite literally become charged by the new possibilities. “When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.” Wayne Dyer. Of course, the Libra Moon can also make us, on the shadow side, a little more indecisive as a result of seeing more choices on our plate, although if we tune in and follow our heart we will know what course to take.

The ruler of the Moon in Libra, sweet Venus, is also harmonious to abundant Jupiter suggesting that pleasure is well within our reach, especially if we reach for what we desire. “Just play. Have fun. Enjoy the game.” Michael Jordan

February 11 Birthdays: Sarah Palin, Jennifer Aniston, Burt Reynolds (Burt also has a Libra Moon)

What area of your life do you think would benefit from a shift in perspective?

Astrology February 9, 2012: Venus Conjuncts Uranus

COSMIC WATCH:

The Moon in “problem-solving” Virgo all day gives us a distinct advantage regarding fixing or correcting whatever is broken or in disarray in our lives. This may extend to a desire to want to tidy up our surroundings by de-cluttering.

Lovable Venus is also conjunct wild, radical Uranus in pioneering Aries today, so the relationship sphere may hold an element of surprise or unpredictability. Sometimes this aspect can also serve as a catalyst for forging sudden, electrifying ties between people. A while back, when I was doing some astrological research, I discovered that Paul McCartney and John Lennon met for the first time on a day when Venus was conjunct Uranus in the entertainment sign of Leo. Uranus also rules change and revolt. No one, of course, knew back then that the seeds for a musical and cultural revolution were being sowed that very day with Venus and Uranus united in the sky.

“A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream together is reality.” John Lennon

In the News: The Pentagon unveiled plans today that would allow women to serve closer to the front lines of combat in some new roles, including working as an infantry person in a battalion. This story is fascinating from an astrological perspective as we have the Venus-Uranus conjunction today exact in Aries, the sign of the military. Venus also governs women and Uranus is the planet of change and equality.

COSMIC WATCH:

With “love goddess” Venus moving into “direct” Aries, we are more confident in our ability to get on base with our desires. That confidence boost, in turn, helps to yield even more passion and enthusiasm for what we want, sort of like what occurs when we stoke a fire. Too, what usually helps us to ultimately score a home run, especially when Venus is here in the “me-first” sign of the zodiac, is being able to display a genuine willingness to help others get their needs met as well, so they know that we are not soley interested in furthering our own agenda, which can sometimes be a shadow manifestation of Venus in Aries. Also, relationship experts tell us that one of the key ingredients that all relationships need to thrive, long-term, is a spirit of reciprocity, or give and take. “A bit of fragrance always clings to the hand that gives roses.” Chinese Proverb

The Moon’s entrance into “meticulous” Virgo today (12:33 pm EST) also provides us with the resourcefulness and thoroughness to successfully attend to whatever is on our plate. It also seems that a part of self-mastery is an ability to fully immerse ourselves into the minutia. “A man’s accomplishments in life are the cumulative effect of his attention to detail.” John Foster Dulles

February 8 Birthdays: Nick Nolte, Lana Turner, James Dean

Famous Persons with Venus in Aries: Mariah Carey, George Clooney, Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor

Today’s Affirmation: My heart’s desires are always fulfilled when I choose to put others first.

Enjoy your Wednesday!

Patrice Thompson

(Much to my delight, the daffodils in my front yard began blooming during yesterday’s Full Moon in golden Leo. Now all I need is to cheerfully follow suit.)
