Patrice Astrology March 1, 2011: Venus Sextile Uranus, Venus in Aquarius

COSMIC WEATHER:

“Variety is the soul of pleasure.” Aphra Behn

Love goddess Venus, signifying what gives us pleasure, pairs up with liberating Uranus via the sextile aspect (9:49 am EST). We also have sort of a doubly whammy going on here because, later in the day, Venus exits practical Capricorn for avant-garde Aquarius (9:39 pm EST), the philanthropic sign of friendships that is also ruled by the planet Uranus. Venus will stay in Aquarius until March 27th.

Venus in electrifying Aquarius can make our love desires more unconventional or non-traditional. We may strike up alliances with persons we normally would not get involved with, in our enthusiastic quest to seek out more unusual interests or pastimes. We may also desire more personal freedom within the love arena. Aquarius characteristically likes to “do its own thing.” Of course, doing that can also sometimes come with a hefty cost, where matters of the heart are concerned. Something that we may want to keep in mind now, as we are tempted to walk more on the “wild side.”

Too, with Venus in hi-tech Aquarius, romance may take shape for some of us over the internet this month. Anyone here ever had any luck with internet dating? If not, now may be the time to bravely try it out again.

Must also mention here, lest I be remiss, that “Venus sextile Uranus” has been linked with “sudden love” or “love at first sight.” So the next 24 to 48 hours could be especially momentous here for those of us seeking a new love interest. Even existing relationships could become more exciting, if we are willing to “spice things up” just a bit now.

Venus in Aquarius is also a better time for us to get “unstuck” in love, to let go of ties that are outworn. This is partly because it is theoretically easier for us to be more emotionally detached now, as Aquarius is more intellectual or reasoning in its approach. Also, it’s an excellent period for more involvement in community or humanitarian affairs. Venus in Aquarius can equate to a love or fondness for groups. Love could also suddenly bloom or manifest in the course of pursuing group-oriented outlets.

Venus additionally rules money, fashion, and possessions. It could be that Venus in Aquarius coincides with new, more unique ways to generate cash flow. Aquarius is associated with using our ingenuity to get ahead. We may also want to jazz up our wardrobe or our immediate surroundings in funky new ways. Too, doing these things can sometimes help us to espouse other changes in our life, as it shows more of a receptivity and eagerness for experimentation. The color for Aquarius is a shimmering, electric blue.

Additionally, we have the Moon in futuristic Aquarius today. Again, breaking with our daily routine, or incorporating new changes or procedures now can be exciting and also help to maximize our efficiency. It’s an ideal day for immersion in social media, technology, innovation, or science (all Uranus-ruled). Astrology is also governed by Uranus. So, you are probably off to a good start with your day by reading this heavenly horoscope. 🙂

Patrice Astrology February 27, 2011: “Goal Setting” Capricorn Moon

Tags

, , , , , ,

COSMIC WEATHER:

“If you don’t know where you are going, you will probably end up somewhere else.” Lawrence J. Peter

The ambitious Capricorn Moon reminds us of the importance of setting our daily goals or intentions as a way to achieve success. Of course, goal setting can be difficult, if we are not really clear about what it is that we hope to accomplish.

Since Saturn-ruled Capricorn pertains to the tangible structures or forms that we build up around ourselves in order to feel safe and secure, with these elements also helping to define us as individuals, today may be a good time to give serious thought to exactly what it is that we would like to see take shape in our lives, as well as formulating specific action plans on how to get there.

Also providing us with a big strategic advantage here today: The Moon’s harmonious sextiles to both the empowering Sun (6:48 am) and articulating Mercury (10:48 am ), in visualizing Pisces, which should help us become more aware of our individual purpose (Sun). With Moon sextile Sun, we are more apt to “feel (Moon) our power (Sun).”

Later on, the Moon forms a restrictive square to taskmaster Saturn in partnership Libra (9:36 pm). A time when we may decicde to tackle old relationship issues or possibly address some of our fears or concerns (Saturn). Moon-Saturn energy tends to be a little on the heavy side, or at least more subdued.

Patrice Astrology February 26, 2011: “Angel Wings and Miracles” Moon-Neptune

Tags

COSMIC WEATHER:

Moon switches from “highway man” Sagittarius to “let’s get down to business” Capricorn (2:32 pm EST). But, before the Moon vacates truth-seeking Sadge, she forms a heavenly sextile to mystical Neptune (12:09 pm EST), who takes her for an idyllic stroll on the gentle wings of angels. The short jaunt truly inspires the Moon to “keep believing in miracles,” and suggests for all of us, a magical time period ahead, if we but dare to believe in the unseen, “divine forces.”

“Miracles occur naturally as an expression of love. The real miracle is the love that inspires them. In this sense, everything that comes from love is a miracle.” Marie Lloyd.

COSMIC WEATHER:

“Passion is energy. Feel the power that comes from focusing on what excites you.” Oprah Winfrey

Opportunistic Jupiter squares passionate Pluto (3:41 pm EST): Doing what we are passionate about can be very freeing for us. New doors could suddenly open up to us if we focus and harness our energies wisely. Purging ourselves of what is outworn, also allows us to move forward to a brighter future. (Pluto rules the principle of elimination.) Also, a great day for refurbishing, or giving things “new life.”

Shadow side of Jupiter-Pluto: Becoming too obsessed with a course of action. Desire for manipulation and control at all costs. Power-hungry. Ruthlessness, or expression of extreme forms of behavior.

Sun/Mercury sextile Pluto: Transforming or regenerating circumstances. Penetrating insights. “Aha” moments.  What was previously hidden or disguised, is gloriously revealed. (Pluto rules secrets and the subconscious realm).

Moon in Sagittarius: Fires up our sense of wonderment and adventure. We also want to express and act upon our higher beliefs and convictions.

Shadow side of Sadge Moon: Fanaticism. Too preachy or boastful. Extravagance (which Pluto will likely do combat with today).

Astrology February 22, 2011 – April 1, 2011: Mars in Pisces

Tags

, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

(Barracuda)

MARS IN PISCES

“How much has to be explored and discarded before reaching the naked flesh of feeling?” Claude Debussy

Energizer Mars dives into emotional Pisces tonight (8:06 pm EST), where it will, no doubt, try to make a big splash over the next six weeks.

It is characteristically the nature of Mars to “stir things up,” as it represents our physical energy and ignites our passions – although when he is submerged underwater in Pisces, much of his “fire” is put out.

Mars in Pisces is also thought to be linked with passive aggressive behavior, or misplaced aggression.

But lest we get fooled by warrior Mars here, he can still be a barracuda!

Too, it is wise to always note whenever Mars changes zodiacal signs. It is at those times when Mars enters a new sign that we often collectively see very notable or pivotal things occurring with respect to “Mars-ruled” matters: aggression, war, adventurous new beginnings, discoveries or breakthroughs.  We also have to take into consideration the zodiacal sign that Mars is moving through.

Pisces, for example, rules the sea and oil; oil has also been spiking upwards due to the unrest in the Middle East. We may all want to keep a close eye on oil with volatile Mars moving into Pisces. (When Chiron entered Pisces last year was the very day we had the BP Oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.)

Mars in Pisces is also potentially a very imaginative/creative placement for the “red planet” including possible talent for art, music, dancing, acting, film and photography. Too, there may be a greater desire now for spiritual retreat/temporary seclusion from the world as a way of recharging our batteries.

Romantically, Mars in Pisces tends to be fantasy-driven and very sensual, so we will definitely want to clear our calendars to make sure that we do have plenty of time for nocturnal pastimes. 🙂

The shadow side of Mars in Pisces:  There can be indecisiveness, disillusionment, extremism (including religious fanaticism). Or too much of an immersion into fantasy or idealism.

Too, with Pisces being more of a selfless/ ego-denying sign, we ideally progress now by doing more for others than for ourselves, especially more for persons who are downtrodden, disabled, or down on their luck for whatever reason.

“Compassion is not religious business, it is human business, it is not luxury, it is essential for our own peace and mental stability, it is essential for human survival.” Dalai Lama

Patrice’s Astrology: Mercury in Pisces February 21, 2011 – March 9, 2011

COSMIC WEATHER:

Thought-keeper Mercury moves into impressionable, imaginative Pisces, the sign of the fishes, on February 21st (3:54 pm EST). Mercury joins the Sun, Uranus, and Chiron here. Mercury will be in Pisces until March 9th. Our mental faculties may be influenced more by emotions than logic during this period. We will also want to take more time to reflect inwardly, as contemplative Pisces deals more with the subconscious and ethereal realms.

“A very receptive state of mind…not unlike a sheet of film itself – seemingly inert, yet so sensitive that a fraction of a second’s exposure conceives a life in it.” Minor White

Famous Persons with Mercury in Pisces: Elton John, Elizabeth Taylor, Abraham Lincoln, Edgar Cayce, Patty Hearst.

Patrice Astrology: Mercury, Mars, Neptune Triple Conjunction February 20, 2011

Tags

, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

COSMIC WEATHER:

“I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.” Michelangelo

We have a potent triple conjunction of Mercury (thoughts), Mars (motivator), and Neptune (fantasy) in “innovative” Aquarius, which is also the sign that rules groups and group behavior. Creative types and original thinkers will likely thrive today, as Neptune rules the imagination, artistic or musical expression, and Mercury and Mars can help to fire these things up. Aquarius energy can also aid to kindle our originality and genius, and give us the courage and wherewithal to view our lives and options in exciting new ways.

Additionally, this triple grouping of the planets can be a very spiritual time when we feel more of a “link with the divine,” as Neptune rules our “urge for spirituality.” Meditation, prayer, engaging in random acts of kindness, or perhaps visiting those who are ill or infirm, or otherwise confined, would be some great ways of using this energy in its most sublime manner. Again, with this conjunction occurring in group-oriented Aquarius, aligning ourselves with groups or organizations that do good works for the collective, would be ideal. Too, lest we forget, Neptune’s mantra is: “Serve or suffer.”

On the shadow side with this influence, there is potentially more of a tendency for “misplaced aggression.”  This is because the aggressive urge, ruled by Mars, has a potential for being “disguised” with its alignment with “masquerading” or “deceptive” Neptune. Historically, Mars-Neptune has also been associated with martyrdom and persecution, and taking advantage of those who are weaker or do not often seem to have a voice in their own affairs, like the downtrodden or disenfranchised groups.

We would probably all be well-advised to pay closer attention to the particular impulses that are “driving” our behavior and decisions now, and steer clear of acting on any irrational or self-aggrandizing ideas that do not propel us upward, to a better place in our head. Neptune’s ray unchecked can arouse paranoia or strange fears from seemingly out of nowhere. Once we detach and calmly study the irrationality of these things, however, we can simply release them and let them go, without acting upon them. Or we can transmute them into higher, creative expression, that serves to elevate or free us.

“There is much in the world to make us afraid. There is much more in our faith to make us unafraid.” Frederick W. Cropp.

Patrice Astrology February 17, 2011: Sun Conjunct Neptune Daily Horoscope

Tags

, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

COSMIC WEATHER:

“All men have need of the gods.” Homer

The empowering Sun conjuncts mystical Neptune. We have a desire to transcend the mundane in our search for deeper meaning. We are also more willing to let our ego needs take a backseat to the needs of others. Neptune is linked with self-sacrifice, even martyrdom. It also rules compassion, as well as our imagination. The keywords for Neptune are: “Serve or suffer.”

Meanwhile, the Moon remains in self-expressive Leo (gearing up for the Full Moon on Friday).  Perhaps by helping to raise others up (Neptune in Aquarius), we discover that we also shine (Leo) in the process.

“Only a life lived for others is worth living.” Albert Einstein.

A note of caution: The shadow side of Sun-Neptune tends to put us “in a fog.” It is often harder to see things clearly. We are also more prone to deception (either from self or others), and disillusionment. So we may want to keep more of a detached air about us, and stay more focused on facts rather than fantasy.

On a collective level, too, Sun-Neptune has historically been associated with “extremism” or “fanaticism,” especially religious fanaticism. This is mainly because with Sun-Neptune, we often feel that we are carrying out a “higher agenda” and therefore possiby assume that we have carte blanche to do whatever we feel we need to do in order to further our perceived noble causes. Neptune also rules persecution. It additionally represents groups that are disenfranchised or otherwise somehow down on their luck.

With that said, this is highly creative energy, today and tomorrow, especially with the theatrical Leo Moon also at play. Too, Neptune rules visual images. Our ability for positive visualization is, therefore, very keen now. We may also want to pay closer attention to our Neptune-ruled dreams for pivotal clues to our subconscious meanderings.

“All the things one has forgotten scream for help in dreams.” Elias Canetti

Neptune’s colors are turquoise, green, and magenta. To tune into Neptune’s meditative ray, we may want to wear and or surround ourselves now with these colors. Also, we might consider burning incense and putting on soft, soothing music. Creating a more contemplative environment in our homes. Water therapy is also ideal, as Neptune rules liquids, gels, and the sea. Given that the Moon is also in entertaining Leo, we may want to take in a play or movie, or attend a concert.

Astrology February 16, 2011: Leo Moon “Big Hair Day”

Tags

, , , , , , , , , , , ,

COSMIC WEATHER:

“Ego has a voracious appetite. The more you feed it, the hungrier it gets.” Nathaniel Bronner Jr.

The nocturnal Moon shifts from nesting Cancer to big hair Leo (4:15 am). We long to hear the sound of applause and are eager to graciously take our bows on stage. The entertaining Leo Moon always desires a good measure of ego-stroking and self-glorification and is willing to “sing for its supper” in order to realize these things. Leo is the zodiacal sign that rules our talent and gifts.

The Moon’s dynamic trine to fortuitous Jupiter in new beginnings Aries (12:31 pm) also ideally helps to boost our creativity and optimism. Doors could suddenly open up for us with this aspect. We may want to maximize our exposure then and plant hopeful seeds of golden Leo opportunity.

We may, however, want to guard against being too controlling and dark when the Moon forms a funky quincunx to despot Pluto (3:28 pm). Too, we still have the volatile Sun conjunct Mars aspect which can unleash our aggressive urge. On the plus side, though, this same aspect can make us courageous.
