COSMIC WATCH:

“Precision of communication is important, more important than ever, in our era of hair trigger balances, when a false or misunderstood word may create as much disaster as a sudden thoughtless act.” James Thurber

With intellectual Mercury quinqunx fuzzy Neptune, we are challenged to communicate with as much clarity and honesty as possible today to avoid any potential confusion or misunderstandings. This may also mean that if we are unsure of what to say to others, perhaps because we are unclear in our own thinking on some point, we should also let that ambiguity be known. Part of embracing our own power is being able to speak exactly what is in our heart.

It may also be a good day to remember that one of the best ways that we can honor somebody else is to give them our full attention when they speak. Many pitfalls in communication occur because we simply fail to listen intently to each other. “Trees are the earth’s endless effort to speak to the listening heaven.” Rabindranath Tagore

The Moon also goes void of course in “judicial” Libra today (4:22 am EDT) where it will stay until it enters “complex” Scorpio (4:32 pm EDT).  With the Moon void of course, we want to be finishing up old business instead of starting anything new. Interestingly, today is also the day that the Supreme Court will be finishing up business with respect to weighing in with regard to the Obama Health Care Plan. Libra is the sign of justice and it is also the sign that governs the Supreme Court. Authoritarian Saturn also just stationed direct in this sign a few days ago, suggesting it is time to move forward now in the various matters ruled by the sign.

How comfortable are you with ambiguity? How do you tend to deal with it?

“If you would be a real seeker after truth, it is necessary that at least once in your life you doubt, as far as possible, all things.” Rene Descartes

Famous Birthdays June 28: Richard Rodgers, Alexis Carrel

In the News: The FDA has approved the first new weight-loss pill in 13 years. The pill, Belviq, is made by Arena Pharmaceuticals.

This approval came with Jupiter, in flexible Gemini, exactly square to Neptune in its home sign of Pisces. Jupiter is associated with obesity, while Neptune and Pisces both govern drugs or pharmaceuticals. When planets are in square relationship to each other, the issues of those planets are often activated.

Enjoy your Thursday!

Astrology June 27, 2012: Venus Stations Direct in Gemini

COSMIC WATCH:

“A loving heart is the truest wisdom.” Charles Dickens

Venus, the planet of love, beauty, pleasure, women’s issues, and money, is finally stationing direct today (11:07 am EDT) after a six week “retro dance” in communication Gemini. When a planet is retrograde, it provides a formal chance for us to review, re-assess, re-configure the various things ruled by that planet. This process is sort of similar to re-arranging furniture in a room. Our perceptions of a particular room are often inevitably altered, too, when we witness the objects in a new spatial relationship to each other. The objects themselves may even seem a bit different to us as we perceive them from new angles.

Sometimes we may also come to the conclusion that some of the things in a room just have to go. Maybe either into another room. Or possibly out the front door to Goodwill. Because it seems no matter how we position them, if they are not in flow with the rest of the environment, keeping them there will only spoil the integrity of the space, while also robbing us of our precious energy.

So with sweet Venus going direct again, it’s a little like “move-in” day regarding the aspects of our lives that tend to bring us pleasure and joy. We are excited and anxious now to get settled into in our “newly re-arranged” quarters. While it may take us a few days to get fully comfortable with the new layout, we are hopeful that our new design will serve us better than the old one. That there will be a fresh momentum now to our affairs. A brand new, dazzling energy swirling about in the ether, hopefully hovering over our romantic and financial matters.

“I no longer believed in the idea of soul mates, or love at first sight. But I was beginning to believe that a very few times in your life, if you were lucky, you might meet someone who was exactly right for you. Not because he was perfect, or because you were, but because your combined flaws were arranged in a way that allowed two separate beings to hinge together.” Lisa Kleypas

What is the hope for your relationships now? Or, for your finances? How confident are you that you will be able to realize these intentions in the days and weeks ahead? What do you think is the master key to your happiness?

Entertainment News: With Venus (women) stationing direct in “communication” Gemini today, numerous media reports are swirling around that Ann Curry may be replaced by Savannah Guthrie as co-host of the Today Show. The Huffington Post reports that Curry may be retained by NBC as a major foreign correspondent. They are also reporting that the announcement of the change-up may be made as early as today by NBC executives. Some other recent reports have said that the “chemistry” between Matt Lauer and Curry just wasn’t right. Ratings were also reportedly down for the program.

Too, it was sadly reported last evening that Nora Ephron, an American filmmaker, director, producer, screenwriter, novelist, playwright, journalist, author and blogger, had passed away from leukemia at age 71. Ephron was a phenomenal humorist (Gemini). She wrote and directed “Julie & Julia” and “Sleepless in Seattle.”

When a planet such as Venus stations in the sky, it appears virtually motionless, from our perspective on Earth. This stationary movement also tends to bring matters associated with that planet into greater prominence for a day or two.

Famous Birthdays June 27: Helen Keller, Ross Perot

Astrology June 25, 2012: Jupiter Squares Neptune

analytical, astrology for june 25 2012, fanaticism, goals, horoscope june 25 2012, idealism, jupiter square neptune, Mercury enters Leo, Moon in Virgo, saturn stations direct

COSMIC WATCH:

“It’s not denial, I’m just selective about the reality I accept.” Bill Watterson

Expansive Jupiter squares imaginative Neptune. While this bodes very well for our creative side, other aspects of our lives could get a little trickier to navigate the next few days. Our fantasies and idealism could get the best of us leaving us more vulnerable to those whose motives may be less than exemplary. On the shadow side, Neptune is linked with deception and “get rich quick” schemes. Thankfully the analytical Virgo Moon is also in force today and can help to introduce a healthy dose of skepticism into the picture for us, should we choose to employ it.

On another level, we may need to beware that Jupiter-Neptune also has some legacy with religious extremism and fanaticism.

Mental Mercury is also entering theatrical Leo (10:24 pm EDT) helping to make our communications much more colorful and dramatic in the coming weeks. Mercury will stay in Leo until September 1st.

Serious Saturn is also stationing direct in balancing Libra today. In the days and weeks ahead, this should help us to gain solid traction with respect to our goals and relationships, after capping off a period of review and rebuilding the last few months. “The important thing is to strive towards a goal which is not immediately visible.  That goal is not the concern of the mind, but of the spirit.”  ~Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

How would you feel today if you knew for certain that you were going to reach your goals? Also, at what point, might fantasy become perilous?

Astrology June 24, 2012: Uranus Squares Pluto

astrology for june 24 2012, hidden motives, horoscope june 24 2012, transformation, transparency, uranus square pluto

COSMIC WATCH:

“Three things cannot be long hidden: the Sun, the Moon and the Truth.” Buddha

The game-changing  “Uranus square Pluto” aspect finally becomes exact today (5:12 am EDT). The first of seven meet-ups between these two celestial bodies that will be occurring between now and March of 2015. This influence has been building for several months, coinciding with high-profile rebellion (Uranus) in the collective, especially in the Middle East. Also with it we have witnessed the continuing implosion (Pluto) of outmoded structures in government and big business (Capricorn).  Pluto also governs debt and rarely does a day go by when we are not hearing about the financial crisis in Greece and elsewhere. Uranus-Pluto has also taught many of us the necessity of living within our means and purging non-essentials.

While this Uranus-Pluto aspect can be interpreted on many levels, one possible impact of it is that it will likely put on our radar screens what may have previously been hidden or withheld (Pluto) from our view. We will likely continue to be privy to hidden motives, hidden behaviors, behind-the-scenes schemings and maneuverings and draconian power struggles while it is in effect.

Married in with this evolving transparency will come a chance for transformation and a new order of things (Uranus). This regenerative process may also apply to matters that we have perhaps personally been denying or hiding from ourselves and others because we were maybe afraid to stand in our own truth.

With “radical” Uranus squaring “revealing” Pluto, which reflects our core essence, whatever is fake or corrupt will be exposed. Possibly some of our perceived “dirty laundry” will even be aired in a bid to hold us more accountable for our actions.  In the aftermath, we may feel a sense of cathartic release of finally being able to step into our own power without also carting around vestiges of shame and guilt.

On another level, this Uranus-Pluto aspect may be teaching us about the parameters of diversity and our own level of tolerance for those whose viewpoints and beliefs may be radically different from our own. Uranus is the planet associated with equality and individuality. “Human diversity makes tolerance more than a virtue; it makes it a requirement for survival.” Rene Dubos

Another thought about this Uranus-Pluto aspect is that there may be a growing desire, on the part of some, to move away from or renounce some of the high-tech gadgetry (Uranus) that has become so synonymous with our daily lifestyle and return to a quieter, less frenetic pace that allows for re-engagement with our inner self, our real source of power. Our relationship to technology (Uranus) essentially undergoing a metamorphosis (Pluto) of sorts. Not that technology will ever go away, it’s just that some of our fascination and obsession with it may wane as we begin to tangibly see firsthand some of its downside on our psyches and souls. We have already seen how texting has all too often replaced conversation and meaningful dialogue with each other. Also how being “plugged in” 24/7 has adversely impacted our ability to concentrate and focus our thoughts and attention.

In the News: The pre-trial hearing of imprisoned U.S. serviceman Bradley Manning is slated for tomorrow afternoon. Manning was arrested in May of 2010 in Iraq on suspicion of having passed classified material to website Wikileaks. He was eventually charged with numerous defenses including communicating national defense information. This story is especially fascinating now in wake of today’s exact square from Uranus, governing the internet, to Pluto, which rules classified information.

How might it help you to bare your soul now? What has been holding you back from living a more authentic existence?

Astrology June 19, 2012: New Moon in Gemini

astrology for june 19 2012, horoscope june 19 2012, Mercury square Saturn, new moon in gemini june 19 2012, new moon in gemini june 2012, new moon june 2012, thinking

COSMIC WATCH:

“We are addicted to our thoughts. We cannot change anything if we cannot change our thinking.” Santosh Kalwar

There is a second New Moon in “cerebral” Gemini today at 28 degrees (11:02 am EDT). The first one occurred back on May 20 at one degree of the sign. With this New Moon occurring near the end of Gemini, it seems that we have a chance for a graduated state of thinking and awareness on certain matters that maybe have been with us for a while. At least since the last New Moon. There may also be more of an urgency to communicate these potential new insights to others now, as it is Gemini’s intrinsic nature to impart ideas and information.

Too, if we have been experiencing inner turmoil or restlessness with our thinking, today may be the perfect time for us to hit the re-set button and re-do our mental programming.  Allowing ourselves to gradually return to that natural state of stillness where enlightened new thoughts can once again begin to emerge and guide us to where our True self wants to go. “I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I intended to be.” Douglas Adams

Mental Mercury, the ruler of this New Moon in Gemini, is also in “sensitive” Cancer now and applying to an exact square to sobering Saturn, which is exact tomorrow. This planetary alignment also tends to deepen our thinking, while simultaneously reminding us of the seriousness of our path. This configuration additionally challenges us to creatively supplant or replace any of our fear-based thoughts with ideas that are more uplifting and empowering. “Above all, be the heroine of your life, not the victim.” Nora Ephron

What is the best thought that you can have now?

Happy New Moon blessings!

ambition, astrology for June 13 2012, being rewarded for our efforts, conquer the world, horoscope june 13 2012, leadership, life and career coaching, Mitt Romney, Moon in Aries, sun trine saturn

COSMIC WATCH:

“What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals.” Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

We are still likely in the “wanting to conquer the world” mode with the Moon ensconced a second day in pioneering Aries. 🙂 Too, we just may be able to do it! We have the clever Gemini Sun, denoting our executive ability, forming a harmonious trine to solidifying Saturn (8:12 am EDT). A time when we are often able to see tangible evidence of our past efforts finally beginning to emerge. Sun-Saturn is also very supportive for long-term planning.

We may additionally feel a greater sense of duty or responsibility to others now. The nature of Saturn tends to be more serious and paternalistic. This is an excellent day to demonstrate our own personal brand of leadership. Also to seek out advice from those persons we regard as mentors. “The task of leadership is not to put greatness into humanity, but to elicit it, for the greatness is already there.” John Buchan

Looking Back: This same “Sun Trine Saturn” influence last year (June 2) coincided with Mitt Romney, the former Republican governor of Massachusetts, throwing his hat in the ring, a second time, for the U.S. presidency.

Would you describe yourself as more of a leader or a follower? What constitutes a good leader in your mind?

Famous People with Sun Trine Saturn: Elton John, Dinah Shore, Bono, Linda McCartney, Justin Timberlake

aggression, astrology for june 7 2012, CNN, feelings, horoscope june 6 2012, mercury enters cancer june 7 2012, news, Sun square Mars

COSMIC WATCH:

“Remember, people will judge you by your actions, not your intentions. You may have a heart of gold…but so does a hard-boiled egg.” Source Unknown

The authoritative Sun, the largest body in our solar system, squares off with forceful Mars today. When these two meet up, we often feel compelled to take assertive action to prove ourselves. The possible challenge for us here is to make sure that by acting in this manner we do not needlessly ruffle too many feathers as this could get us sent to the back of the classroom today! Since Mars also governs our physical energy, we may be able to make headway on our “to-do lists” as we may be feeling more invigorated now.

On another level, Sun-Mars aspects can often be very emotionally galvanizing, poising us to seek out adventurous or trail-blazing experiences.

Also today, mental Mercury is shifting from curious Gemini into sentimental Cancer where it will stay until June 25th. This may find us communicating with more sensitivity, including articulating our feelings more. Our words may also be able to trigger more emotionalism from others. Cancer also rules home and family and Mercury here may be putting more of a focus on these areas for us the next few weeks. “His heart was like a sensitive plant, that opens for a moment in the sunshine, but curls up and shrinks into itself at the slightest touch of the finger, or the lightest breath of the wind.” Anne Bronte

Some Astrological Research about transiting Sun square Mars: The very last time that we had the Sun in communication Gemini, exactly square to Mars in perfecting Virgo (like we have today), was on June 1 of 1980. On that date, The Cable News Network (CNN), was officially launched at 5:00 pm EST in Atlanta, Georgia. Gemini governs news reporting which makes this an especially fascinating bit of astrological info. Mars in industrious Virgo perhaps also helped to take the news to a new level then. Too, again this shows the potential trailblazing aspect of the Sun-Mars aspect.

Famous People with Sun Square Mars: Madonna, Bob Dylan, Muhammad Ali (They were all self-made, pioneer types.)

How comfortable are you with being assertive?

The Moon in ambitious Capricorn today gifts us with a desire to zero in on that proverbial mountaintop.  The Moon’s trine to motivating Mars in perfecting Virgo (12:33 pm) also paves the way to showcase our expertise or know-how. It is also an excellent energy for adding new skills or honing our present capabilities. Performing detailed type work is also favored.

Astrology June 5, 2012: Rare Venus Transit of the Sun

astrology for June 5 2012, horoscope june 5 2012, Prince Philip of England, Queen Elizabeth's Diamond Jubilee, Rare Venus transit of the Sun, royalty

“No love, no friendship, can cross the path of our destiny without leaving some mark on it forever.” Francois Mauriac

The stage is set today for a very rare transit of the Sun by Venus, the planet of love, beauty, and festive celebration. The last Venus transit was on June 8, 2004. There will not be another one until 2117. The earliest known observation of this transit was in 1639 by English astronomer Jeremiah Horrocks.

Today’s Venus transit is suppose to last about six hours and visibility will be best from the west coast of the U.S., eastern Asia, and the Pacific regions. You can also go to the NASA website today for a free live webcast of the event.

When sweet Venus is normally conjunct the Sun (our sense of power) it generally has a softening influence on us. There is also more of an inclination for relationship, pleasure, and creative self-expression. It seems that whatever it is that we desire, when we have this aspect operating, we are able to attract things to us with greater ease. Perhaps this is because the Universe intuitively senses our innate fairness, graciousness, and cordiality, so it is more apt to respond, in kind, to accommodate our desires. Venus is said to actually govern our power of attraction. “What you seek is seeking you.” Rumi

(Please see yesterday’s post on the “Full Moon  / Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius” for more of my thoughts on this transit.)

Venus is currently moving retrograde through loquacious Gemini. Hopefully, while she is passing through here, all of us will be able to experience, firsthand, some of Venus’s lighthearted gaiety and love of words and communication, that flows ever so effortlessly through the ether whenever she is deposited in this cheery sign. Perhaps, someone has even whispered a plethora of sweet nothings in your ear recently? It may have even been a former lover (retrograde Venus)? Or maybe you had the occasion to do the same with someone you love? All much to the delight, of course, of Venus in this playful sign of the Twins. This is also a wonderful time to write love poems or love letters.

Venus also likes to party and entertain. She loves pageantry. And isn’t it fascinating now that, over in England, Queen Elizabeth’s Diamond Jubilee celebration, marking 60 years of her monarchy, is presently taking place on a lavish scale for all who want to witness it via the television and the internet? Millions of people have also been watching and actively partaking in the festivities in London for the past four days. This is only the second time in a thousand years of the British monarchy that there has been a Diamond Jubilee, so it is a very historic event.

Queen Elizabeth II is also a Venus-ruled figure herself, having her Sun in solid Taurus, along with her Moon in regal Leo, the sign of royalty. The British Royal family is now reportedly experiencing a resurgence in popularity, stemming no doubt, in part, to Queen Elizabeth’s long-lasting love for and dedication and service to the people of the Commonwealth of Nations. Queen Elizabeth II is the Queen of 16 countries.

There was also a report that the Queen’s husband, Prince Philip, was admitted to the hospital on Monday, with reportedly a bladder infection. Seems very sad that he will not be able to be by his wife’s side to celebrate her special moment.  We wish Prince Philip a Godspeed recovery. He is a Gemini and will be 91 years young on Sunday.

On the eve of Venus’s Transit of the Sun, Sir Elton John, Sir Paul McCartney, and several other recording artists performed in concert for the Queen and members of the Royal family, along with 10,000 other people in the audience who were lucky enough to win tickets to the performances. Also, elsewhere, many different cultural and artistic exhibits are being held to coincide with this special celestial happening.

Famous People with Venus Conjunct the Sun: John Travolta, Leonardo DiCaprio, Oprah Winfrey

“The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate.” Oprah Winfrey

What are your thoughts about royalty in this day and age? How important is it for you to mark life’s memorable occasions with special planned events, such as parties, luncheons and receptions? What do you think is also the value of holding celebrations?  Who would you love to invite to a party?

Enjoy your Tuesday. Long live the Queen!

“Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less.” Marie Curie

A Full Moon / Lunar Eclipse in “truth-seeking” Sagittarius today (7:12 Am EDT) is a chance for us to experience what it is that we “know for sure” about our lives. It is an opportunity to sit with what “rings true for us” in the trusty chambers of our heart.

With “action-oriented” Mars squaring this super-charged lunation we may also feel called upon to put our “truth into motion” now. We may feel compelled to take a bold stand for whatever it is that we believe in. Since Mars is also in “workable, analytical” Virgo, we may be needing to get “very real” with our beliefs and see how they can practically support us in our daily lives. Mars in Virgo is excellent energy for holding us accountable in this regard. It is also helpful in our being able to discern whatever is wobbly or dubious around us.

A possible caution for us here may be to make sure that we do not ride roughshod over others’ beliefs or philosophies now, assuming arrogantly or naively that we have a sole monopoly on the truth. “The more I see, the less I know for sure.” John Lennon

Too, what we may find, in the coming days ahead, a la the keen, discriminating awareness of the Virgo Mars and also expansive Jupiter, still in “pragmatic, earthy” Taurus (Jupiter rules Sagittarius), is that some of the things we thought for sure would fly, may only still be elusive pipe-dreams, at this point. Indication that we may need to patiently revisit, once more, that glorious, illustrious drawing board to see how we can ingeniously reposition the wings on our ideas, so that they will finally be able to miraculously take flight and serve us heroically along the course of our spirit’s complicated journey through the earth plane. Full Moons allow us to eloquently empty ourselves of whatever is expired, flimsy, or no longer needed by us, for whatever reason.

“Mystical” Neptune is also stationing retrograde today, in “contemplative” Pisces (5:03 pm EDT), suggesting that we must also be willing to look inside for the answers. Be willing to still ourselves long enough so that we may clearly hear the angelic voice of our intuition (Neptune) whispering to us via the gentle ripples dancing across our soulful waters. Our night dreams (which Neptune additionally rules) may also be very revealing for us and may also help to point us in the direction that we are suppose to be going in now as part of our soul’s unique evolution. “I find out a lot about myself by sleeping. Dreams, they are who I am when I’m too tired to be me.” Jarod Kintz. Neptune will remain in retrograde motion until November 10.

“Love Goddess” Venus is also gearing up for a very rare eclipse of her own tomorrow, as she dares to boldly display her seductive brand of soothing feminine charms and dart across the face of the empowering Sun (our soul’s purpose). Venus perhaps reminding us here to let the connecting power of love, that naturally resides in each of us, to let it bravely flow unencumbered from our hearts now, so that it will joyfully light up all of our countenances, and null and void all of the darkness that potentially threatens to overtake us, if we do not persist in finding a way to come together, despite any or all of our perceived differences. “Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.” Martin Luther King, Jr.

We may want to make special note of where (what houses) the 14 degree Sagittarius-Gemini axis falls in our birth charts, as those are the areas of our life that are being activated now and where we may also be experiencing an “awakening of consciousness” and a “call to action.”

A Full Moon Eclipse in Sagittarius also helps to energize activities in these specific areas: publishing; philosophy; writing; higher education; religion; politics; the law; advertising and promotion; long-distance travel; and matters pertaining to other cultures.

Interestingly, with this eclipse today we are hearing details of Oprah Winfrey’s brand new “interactive book club,” which should, no doubt, be very welcome news for the publishing industry and also for fans of Oprah’s who are readers. Today’s eclipse is falling in Oprah’s 12th house of reflection and transcendence and it is exactly opposite her natal Jupiter in communicator Gemini, in her sixth house of work and service. Jupiter is the ruler of Sagittarius and is also the planet that governs teaching and publishing. Oprah, an Aquarian Sun, also has her lovable Venus exactly conjunct the Sun, like we have now. Her natal Moon is also in Sagittarius and she has a late degree Sagittarius rising. A natural teacher. Oprah has announced that her first book for the new club will be Cheryl Stayed’s Wild. We wish Oprah much luck with this latest endeavor, not that she probably needs it.

What do you “know for sure” about your life? About existence? How have you arrived at these truths? How might you also share your own abundant wisdom now with the rest of the world, and what might be the impact of your revealing your own truth to others? How might you also help others to express or show what is in their heart? If you could have a heart-to-heart conversation with Venus now, what might you specifically like her to weigh in on regarding your life? What have you also maybe learned about life and love that you would especially like to share with her? 🙂

Happy Eclipse blessings to you!
