Cosmic Weather:

Don’t you just love it when you drive your car into a packed parking lot and, suddenly,  another car pulls out from a parking space, exactly in front of where you want to go, and you’re able to get the spot? Well, today, kind of has that same “lucky” feel to it – right place, right time. Especially the first half of the day as transiting Mars in Leo forms a trine with Jupiter Rx in Sagittarius (8:22 am).

This galvanizing planetary influence tends to energize (Mars) our faith, beliefs, self-confidence, and vision (Jupiter), thereby potentially supplying us with a motivating “can-do” spirit.

On another level, Mars-Jupiter aspects also often have a history of ushering in (Mars) new political (Jupiter) leadership, which is what we have just seen occurring in the UK (Boris Johnson), and also in Puerto Rico, with the governor there just announcing he’s stepping down.

Too, because it’s also the 25th day of the month (or a seven-day)  we additionally have more of an idealistic propensity (Neptune) now, which can also inspire us to want to “claim our dreams.”

Also, since we’re still in a waning lunar cycle and Mercury is retrograde, we should continue focusing our efforts on phasing things out or bringing ongoing matters to a completion.

The Waning Moon is also in plodding, practical Taurus the bull, all day, the sign of its “exaltation.” This should serve as a nice “grounding backdrop” for us. It can help us to be more “present in the moment.” Luna in Taurus especially favors engagement with nature as well as activities that indulge or delight our five senses.

“Flying starts from the ground. The more grounded you are, the higher you fly.” J.R. Rim

*All times EDT

On This Day in History: On July 25, 1997, scientists announce the first human stem cells to be cultured in a laboratory using tissue taken from aborted human embryos.

Astrologically, on the day, pioneering Mars was in creative Leo (2 degrees) and exactly trine to transformational Pluto (ruling death and rebirth), at 2 degrees of futuristic Sagittarius.

“The possession of knowledge does not kill the sense of wonder and mystery. There is always more mystery.” Anais Nin

Hope it’s a good one!

Today’s Astrology July 24, 2019: Mercury Rx Conjuncts Venus

Cosmic Weather:

We start out our Wednesday – the 205th day of the year – with Waning Luna (governing our feelings and emotions) wrapping up her stay in fast-acting Aries, perhaps generating more of a general restlessness within us and also more of a tendency towards impulsivity as we are more inclined now to directly act upon our emotions. (The Moon will be void from 10:47 am to 5:42 pm, at which time it will enter the sign of stabilizing Taurus.)

Communicator Mercury retrograde is also forming a conjunction with sweet, soothing Venus in sentimental Cancer (8:26 pm). This softening influence can not only make us wax poetic and perhaps kindle our romantic side as well, it can also find us revisiting and analyzing old relationships, old feelings, including reviewing elements of our familial or ancestral past. Articulating our feelings now may also be more important to us. Additionally, it may be a wonderful time to visit art galleries, take in concerts, redecorate our living quarters, as we potentially have more of an aptitude and appreciation for beauty now in all of its forms. Too, this conjunction nicely dovetails with today’s numerology, since it’s the 24th day of the month, which is also a Venus-ruled six-day.

The Moon also enters its Last Quarter Phase in practical Taurus tonight (9:17 pm), squaring the Sun in self-expressive Leo. (The Quarter Moon phase always suggests some crisis in consciousness is possible.) It could be that we need to reconcile now a need to be pragmatic with a desire to be creative. Perhaps discerning how to place or put a value or worth (Taurus) on our own creative instincts (Leo).

“You can’t use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have.” Maya Angelou

*All times EDT

On This Day in History: On July 24, 1965, Bob Dylan (b. 5/24/41) releases the classic “Like A Rolling Stone.” Astrologically, that day, Mercury (words) and Venus (artistry) were conjunct in creative Leo (similar to what we have today with those same two planets conjunct in Cancer). The empowering Sun was also in dramatic Leo and sextile to the Waning Moon in articulate, clever Gemini. Dylan also had, in his own birth chart, transiting fortuitous (preacher-teacher) Jupiter in Gemini exactly conjunct his 7th house cusp (ruling the public) and trining his Libra Midheaven (career house).

Hope it’s a good one!

Today’s Astrology July 23, 2019: A Grand Fire Trine

23 Tuesday Jul 2019

Cosmic Weather:

The first half of the day finds the enterprising Waning Moon in Aries making a Grand Fire Trine to assertive Mars in Leo (9:33 am) and to expansive Jupiter Rx in Sagittarius (12:13 pm), so we have a real opportunity, at this time, to turn things around in a positive way that feels very spacious and invigorating to us. The fire signs – Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius – naturally invoke our passions, or what it is that is burning in our heart. A Grand Fire Trine also suggests a special ability to more effortlessly put into motion our strongest desires.

Again, with the Moon in its waning phase, we are continuing to work on bringing things to completion now, as well as actively eliminating what isn’t working. Too, it’s interesting how we often equate “adding things” to our lives as automatically making them better, but sometimes, “subtracting” the non-essential elements is what really ends up giving our lives their richness and distinction. Kind of like removing unnecessary furniture pieces or accessories out of a room so what you have left is easier to see and appreciate and manage.

This is also an excellent period to work on developing our sense of self-confidence (Leo), our sense of daring or adventure (Aries), as well as refining our vision for ourselves and our future (Sagittarius).

Structuring Saturn Rx in Capricorn is also trining focused Vesta in Taurus today, allowing us a chance to become more grounded in our work or duties. It may be that we are returning to a work project now (Saturn Rx) that we earlier abandoned or put on hold. It’s also potentially easier for us to become more disciplined now as we can ideally see that the “end is in sight.”

Since this is also the 23rd day of the month (or a Mercury-ruled five day) there’s a tendency to employ a more mental or intellectual approach to the day. Our cognitive juices are flowing. An especially good time, perhaps, to follow-up on, or communicate to the world, what we are curious about. There may also be more of a flair for diplomacy or for extending an olive branch. It could be we are more inventive or creative now regarding strategies on how to do this.

“I think, at a child’s birth if a mother could ask a fairy godmother to endow it with the most useful gift, that gift would be curiosity.” Eleanor Roosevelt

Hope you make it a great one, today!

Today’s Astrology July 22, 2019: Sun Enters Leo

22 Monday Jul 2019

Cosmic Weather:

It’s always nice to begin our Monday with a little bit of extra zing, going for us – and that appears to be the situation today!

The Waning Moon (governing our emotions) first shifts into “start me up” Aries, this morning (6:02 am), the sign of new beginnings, and then, later tonight, the Sun (ego, purpose, and will) follows suit with a shift into “self-expressive” Leo the Lion (10:50 pm), where it will hang out for the next 30 days, giving us ample time to “strut our stuff” as well as display/employ/develop our creative abilities and leadership skills. When the Sun is in proud, self-confident Leo, we naturally like to be in charge. We also crave the limelight. The Sun will be joining assertive Mars, already in Leo, and, later this week, lovable Venus will also be entering this kingly-queenly sign.

Another cool thing about today is that, numerologically, it’s the 22nd day of the month. The number 22 is considered to be a “master number” and is linked with the “master builder” vibration, potentially allowing us to manifest our dreams with greater ease.

Also, the simple fact that it’s a Monday, the beginning of the workweek, can inspire or re-motivate us to, once again, get going with our lofty, very laudable agendas. (In Daniel H. Pink’s latest book “When”, he mentions “Mondays” as one of the “temporal landmarks” associated with fresh starts.)

Too, since the Moon is in its waning phase and decision-maker Mercury is retrograde until July 31st, it may be best to focus on putting the finishing touches on our magnifico creations now instead of rolling out anything new.

“Starting is not most people’s problem, staying, continuing and finishing is.” Darren Hardy

*All times EDT

On This Day in History: On July 22, 1959, Ed Wood’s cult classic “Plan 9 From Outer Space” (an independently produced science fiction-horror film) called one of the worst films ever, premieres.

Astrologically, that day, presenter Mercury was stationing retrograde in “Hollywood director” Leo conjunct eccentric, quirky Uranus (the planet which also governs science fiction). Enterprising Mars was also newly-installed in detail-minded Virgo conjunct “shock-jock” Pluto. Mars and Pluto were also trine to “Father Time” Saturn in “professionally-minded” Capricorn which is maybe why the movie is still being talked about today. Trines to Saturn are associated with longevity (or staying power).

Hope you enjoy your Monday!

Today’s Astrology July 11, 2019: Mars Square Uranus

11 Thursday Jul 2019

Cosmic Weather:

The ever twinkling stars, today, suggest an ambitious/burgeoning tendency to want to “usher in the new” and “clear out the old” in very bold or flashy ways (Mars in Leo), especially incorporating whatever is perceived to be “cutting-edge” or “revolutionary” in nature (Uranus in Taurus); Mars-Uranus energy is historically associated with originality and inventiveness, including defying or disavowing the status quo.

However, on a cautionary note, before we fully commit to jumping aboard this beckoning, enticing starship now, we may want to first identify what it is that is already working out favorably for us – perhaps, for instance, identifying the foundational elements/values in our life that are worth preserving or holding on to – so we don’t have to come back later, and try to pencil them back in, thereby costing ourselves, dearly, in terms of our time and or energetic currency. Too, it is not always possible to reinstate elements of the past once the door has been shut.

We also likely come out a winner today by dialing back on those things that are deemed/considered to be cognitive distractions for us, that overload or tax our brains, and thereby cause us to become more careless or reckless in our dealings or interactions with our immediate environment. (Mars-Uranus energy already carries enough of a jolt on its own. We likely don’t need any extra stimulation now!)

The Waxing Moon is also still in its First Quarter and in the investigative sign of Scorpio, priming us to want to “get to the heart” of issues. Luna’s trine to the nurturing Cancer Sun, this afternoon (3:32 pm), is also potentially very positive for healing, especially for remedying relationships with family members.

Hope you enjoy your Thursday!
