When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.” Rumi

The Moon wraps up her stay in inquisitive Sagittarius with a flowing trine to benevolent, philosophical Jupiter in exuberant Leo (9:37 am). A wonderful opportunity for us to spread a touch of joy and goodwill around. Mark Twain once noted that “to get the full value of joy you must have someone to divide it with.” A warm, positive sentiment that is really a perfect fit, too, for this more upbeat Moon-Jupiter energy, which naturally serves to activate our “inner philanthropist”; also, our “inner Santa.” Psychology experts also say that we tend to feel better about ourselves when we are involved in activities in which we feel we’re making a contribution to the welfare of others – versus simply occupying ourselves with more self-serving kinds of endeavors. Moon-Jupiter aspects can also make us more aware of the legacy we’re leaving behind.

The Moon enters productive Capricorn, mid-afternoon (2:47 pm), harmoniously trining affectionate Venus in Virgo (3:44 pm). This cordial aspect should also help to put us in a more cooperative, easygoing spirit, particularly in the workplace (Virgo). It’s also a time when we can more effortlessly build upon our successes, as we seem to be able to more adeptly gauge exactly what our next steps should be to move ourselves forward now, with the Capricorn Moon innately having an affinity or talent for extracting from our past, whatever is most useful for us to know or entertain in the present moment. Others are also more apt or willing to help us achieve our goals now, especially when we approach them in a more pleasant, agreeable (Venusian) manner.

* All times EDT.

Astrology for July 26, 2015: Uranus Stations Retrograde

“I think the reward for conformity is that everyone likes you except yourself.” Rita Mae Brown

Uranus, the planet of individuality, independence, innovation and change stations retrograde today in “self-discovery” Aries – just a day after lovable Venus did the same thing in “refining” Virgo. With Uranus retrograde – an annual cycle that lasts for about five months – we’re sizing up, in part, some of our recent changes or actions to see how they’ve accommodated or matched who we truly are at our core. Too, we may want to reflect upon now how comfortable we typically are when it comes to embracing the whole notion of innovation or progressive change, in our lives.

Also, another area possibly up for consideration or review now is the matter of personal freedom or independence in our lives – just what does that mean to us and how important is it to us that we maintain a certain freedom of movement in our affairs? Many of us often say, for instance, that we really need to have our own freedom, our own space – especially in relationships; but then, at the end of the day, we often may find ourselves backpedaling on this issue because we discover that we also need to have a deep sense of connection with others – that, being alone and on our own, is not always as glamorous or wonderful as it’s sometimes cracked up to be.

On a collective level, since Uranus also governs such issues as equality and diversity, with Uranus retrograding now, we also may want to ponder or think about just how welcoming or accepting we have been – or tend to be – towards those persons who are perhaps different from us, who maybe come from different cultures, or possibly espouse different religions, values, etc. “A lot of different flowers make a bouquet.” – Muslim Origin

Uranus will be retrograde until December 25th.

This date in history: The United States Post Office was created in Philadelphia in 1775 under Benjamin Franklin. (At the time, Saturn in social Libra, symbolizing infrastructure or support, was harmoniously trining innovative Uranus in Gemini, the sign of the messenger. The formation of the post office, of course, made it possible for the public to enjoy greater written communication access to each other in a faster, more reliable way, with trusty Saturn putting a sturdy floor under a new “Uranian” way of doing business.)

Astrology for July 25, 2015: Venus Retrogrades, Mars Square Uranus

“We loved with a love that was more than love.” Edgar Allen Poe

Venus, the planet of love, beauty, money, and values, is stationing retrograde today at 0 degrees of Virgo. This apparent backward-moving cycle will last until September 6 – a natural time for us turn inward and reflect upon our needs for love, as well as a period to possibly re-assess our overall financial picture, and what it is that we truly value in our lives, and also, consequently, what we hope to attract in the future.

Sometimes, with Venus retrograde, we also find ourselves dealing with past relationships – or people from the past may suddenly intersect our orbit again. American writer and historian, Washington Irving, once wisely remarked that love is something that is never really lost. “If not reciprocated, it will flow back and soften and purify the heart.” Most definitely, a very healing sentiment, and something that we may also want to keep close to our heart now, especially if we should encounter someone more difficult or problematic from our past, in the days ahead – someone who may have rebuffed or spurned our romantic overtures, for whatever reason. There’s also another quote, quite timely here, that says, “Rejection is protection.” Can’t recall who said that, but it’s also certainly another way of looking at “lost love” in a very positive manner that can help to make us feel better about some of our former liaisons that may have ended on a sour note. It can also be very uplifting for us to not view romances that have gone astray as merely “failures,” but rather to look upon them as possibly enlightening seminars instructing us on the truest or purest intentions of our heart; often we require contrasting or challenging experiences in order to figure things out, or to unveil what’s hidden within the complex depths of our being.

Motivating Mars is also square rebellious Uranus today – a galvanizing aspect that will continue to linger around for the next day or two. This configuration can increase our desire for personal freedom and excitement or adventure, but we may want to avoid making any big changes just for the sake of change, especially on the domestic or family front (Mars in Cancer); Mars-Uranus is associated, on the shadow side, with acting prematurely, or without regard for the long-term consequences – a strategy that usually tends to backfire on us. On the plus side, this planetary pairing can be very innovative, helping us to see old issues or problems in a new light. Uranus is also stationing retrograde tomorrow, perhaps adding more weight to this particular aspect now. The Moon is also in intense, transformative Scorpio, all day, a lunar placement that can serve to duly prime us for drama or intrigue. It could be that we’re hot on the trail of something big now, our sleuth juices overflowing! 🙂

Astrology July 13, 2015: Mercury Trine Neptune

“The very least you can do in your life is figure out what you hope for. And the most you can do is live inside that hope. Not admire it from a distance but live right in it, under its roof.” Barbara Kingsolver

Communications flow more seamlessly today, and are steeped with inspiration, as articulate Mercury trines idealistic Neptune, an aspect that also aligns us with our long-term vision and the hopes that we hold for our life, as well as for the people that we love. There’s also more of a willingness and ability now, to step inside another person’s shoes, and see what that person is thinking and feeling – something which can also lead to a deeper sense of connection and trust between people.  The late Stephen R. Covey referred to trust as the “glue of life,” and said that it was the “foundational principle that holds all relationships.”

Because Mercury also rules contracts, when it’s aligned with the more surrendering, diffusive, unifying Neptunian energy, we also see, sometimes, more of an inclination to sign, or at least negotiate, peace treaties, or other similar kinds of agreements. Too, Mercury-Neptune carries a strong creative component, making it an ideal time to work on projects that require the use of our imagination or envisioning skills.

The waning Crescent Moon also remains in curious, breezy Gemini, all day, making harmonious aspects to Uranus (originality), 8:50 am, Jupiter (optimism), 3:21 pm, and Venus (love and our power attraction), 11:31 pm.

*All times EDT.

Astrology for July 12, 2015: Sun Squares Experimental Uranus

“Learning is always rebellion.  Every bit of new truth discovered is revolutionary to what was believed before.” Margaret Lee Runbeck

The nature of life is such that it continually requires us to take ongoing leaps in the dark, or to venture down roads that we’re not altogether familiar with. Today, with the empowering Sun squaring experimental Uranus (10:53 pm EDT), the planet of change, innovation, and rebellion, it appears that we tend to thrive, or come more fully into our own now, by intentionally cultivating a love of the unknown; by deciding to tolerate or accept ambiguities; by finding a way to make peace with possibly uncomfortable outcomes or results that may not be exactly what we had originally intended or envisioned for ourselves, but which may be very valuable and necessary for our soul’s unique purpose. Lao Tzu taught that life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes, and that we should not resist them as that only causes sorrow. Always very good advice to heed, but especially for today when a wave of uncertainty seems to be on the horizon.

On another level, if we’ve been hoping for a breakthrough or a discovery, Sun-Uranus could very well deliver one. This influence also favors taking unconventional approaches to problems. Also, because this energy tends to speed things up, it may be the kind of day in which we feel more physically or mentally restless. Accordingly, allowing ourselves to deviate from our routine, might be a very good way to play the day. We also may want to get more rest and watch what we eat now, particularly avoiding, or cutting back on, food or beverages, or even activities, that over-stimulate us, or cause us to stay awake, or get too excited.

Famous People Born with Sun square Uranus: Stephen King, O. Henry, Wynonna Judd, John Ritter, Dennis Rodman, Bono, George Washington, Dustin Hoffman.

Question for Today: What is a change that you know you should make, but you’re still resisting it?

In the News: The Eurozone summit is taking place today that could pave the way for a third bailout for Greece, but the process is reportedly fraught with uncertainty. Astrologically, today’s Sun-Uranus aspect could be interpreted as accentuating or setting off taskmaster Saturn’s recent return to “debt-ruling” Scorpio, where it presently sits retrograde near the “anaretic” or last degree of the sign, a placement in which it is deemed to be operating in a more “urgent” manner.

Famous July 12 Birthdays: Bill Cosby, Malala Yousafzai, George Washington Carver, Cheryl Ladd, Richard Simmons, Christine McViie

“I love to think of nature as an unlimited broadcasting station, through which God speaks to us every hour, if we will only tune in.” George Washington Carver

Cosmic Quote of the Day: “Without leaps of imagination or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities. Dreaming, after all, is a form of planning.” Gloria Steinem

Everything originates with a dream or a vision. That’s why it’s so important, if we want to grow our world, that we intentionally work on being a possibility type thinker, an idea person, someone who is able to see beyond the present scope of things to imagine a better way, a brighter day. The Mars trine Neptune energy, that is exact today (6:43 pm), is ideal for doing this kind of envisioning because it naturally inspires us to actively (Mars) dream (Neptune) about the future, as well as encouraging us to take present day action on our dreams. Neptune symbolizes our imagination and vision, while Mars represents our desires and motivation. On another level, this Mars-Neptune energy can sensitive us more to our surroundings, as well as increase the intuitive bond that we share with the people around us.

Dead End

Cosmic Quote of the Day: “Thinking will not overcome fear but action will.” W. Clement Stone

As we all know, over-thinking things can often land us smack on the road to nowhere  – a frustrating destination that will quite obligingly dead-end our dreams and crash our hopes, if we let it. Of course, knowing when to stop thinking and when to take action on something isn’t always easy to determine, especially when our fears intervene. Today, with thinker Mercury quinqunx cautious Saturn, we may be wrestling a bit with the “what-iffing” syndrome, or given to second-guessing ourselves. Fortunately, though, the Moon’s shift into action-oriented Aries (12:37 pm) helps us to get over these self-sabotaging hurdles, so that we can begin moving forward again at a confident pace. Benjamin Disraeli once remarked that action may not always bring happiness, but that there is no happiness without action.

Meditation 2

Cosmic Quote of the Day: “Learning to let go should be learned before learning to get. Life should be touched, not strangled. You’ve got to relax, let it happen at times, and at others move forward with it.” Ray Bradbury

Every day, each of us wrestles with “hanging on or letting go” in myriad aspects of our life. While we’re not always sure which route to take here, being clear about our values and the personal vision for our life, is normally a good starting point from which to begin to wade through this process and to move on, especially if we are to be true to ourselves.  Today, with the illuminating Sun opposite purging Pluto, a once a year occurrence, we tend to be more focused upon those issues that we intuitively know we need to get rid of, that have been weighing us down, where we’ve been holding on perhaps too tightly out of fear, or out of concern of a loss of control. Writer Dan Brown, author of The Da Vinci Code, says that men go to far greater lengths to avoid what they fear than to obtain what they desire.

River In A Forest

Cosmic Quote of the Day: “There is a grace of kind listening, as well as a grace of kind speaking.” Frederick William Faber

When we are in conversation with a person, and listening to their every word, we are “fully gracing them” with our presence. When we choose to carefully formulate our words, or what we want to say to another, we also are displaying kind or thoughtful regard for them because we are letting them know that we value, honor and respect their time and attention, as well as showing to them that we’re concerned with how our words may impact them. English novelist Mary Ann Evans, known by her pen name, George Eliot, also once quipped that it is always good to know, if only in passing, charming human beings. “It refreshes one like flowers and woods and clear brooks.” In astrology, Venus, the planet of love and beauty, symbolizes the kindnesses or niceties that we bestow upon each other.

Today’s Energy:

Communicator Mercury, in articulate Gemini, is sextile gracious, soothing Venus in heartfelt Leo, today.  Ideally, we are expressing ourselves with more politeness and refinement now; coming from a place that admirably embraces and showcases the social and loving aspects of our being. Accordingly, this is a great day to write love letters, read loves stories, exchange hugs and kisses, or to speak sincerely what’s in our heart. Also, it’s a good time for social or party planning, including sending out invitations, buying stationary, or putting together floral arrangements.

The Moon exits individualistic Aquarius for dreamy, mystical Pisces, mid-morning (10:22 am), where it will hang out for the next couple of days. Later, a harmonious trine from the Moon to motivating Mars, in nesting Cancer (11:19 pm), helps to provide us with a reassuring sense of our home as our personal sanctuary.

Tomorrow, the illuminating Sun also makes its annual opposition to re-configuring Pluto, the planet of renewal and transformation, so there may be a growing sense today of some kind of a turning point getting ready to take place in our lives, or around us. Pluto often shows us what needs to be taken down or gotten rid of, and then later, what needs to be erected, or resurrected, in its place.

Ain't That America?

Cosmic Quote of the Day: “Freedom rings where opinions clash.” Adlai Stevenson

Although we may want other people to agree with our opinions – especially since we know we’re usually spot on in our assessment of things 🙂 – the mere fact that we can disagree on matters, is something that we should always be appreciative or grateful for, and something that we must never allow ourselves to take for granted, as we have all seen, especially recently, how insidious life can be when freedom of speech is suppressed or obliterated. Thomas Jefferson once remarked that he never considered a difference of opinion in politics, in religion, in philosophy, as cause for withdrawing from a friend.

Today’s Energy:

On this Fourth of July, America’s celebration of freedom, the Moon is deposited, the entire day, in diversity-oriented Aquarius. This Moon placement, while more emotionally detached, can serve to take us outside of ourselves, and our own interests, to focus on the greater interests or needs of the collective. Accordingly, it is a time when we may feel more predisposed to taking a stand on causes that are important to us, that reflect or support our values. Also this may be a period when we might just long to be with others, especially with the people who make us come alive, or who are interesting to us, for one reason or another. The Moon’s sextile to routine-buster Uranus (6:16 pm) also gives us a fascination for “what’s off the beaten path,” while the Moon’s opposition to exuberant Jupiter (9:37 pm) allows us to connect with what brings our heart joy, and delivers a palpable sense of oxygen to our spirit.
