Cosmic Weather:

“Were it not for the leaping and twinkling of the soul, man would rot away in his greatest passion, idleness.” – Carl Jung

On this second Thursday of January, perceived energy dynamo Mars – which is also thought to signify motivation, assertion, and aggression – finally stations direct in the communication and travel sign of Gemini today, at 8 degrees (3:56 pm) – after a more than two-month retrograde cycle which began on October 30th.

Too, if you remember, it was also around that same time – October 27th, to be precise – that Elon Musk acquired the social media platform Twitter for $44 billion. (Most definitely, lots of wild twists and turns with that one!)

Also, free speech and content moderation – both Gemini-ruled areas – have become pretty hot topics, really flashpoints for discussion, since Musk became Chief Twit at the company.

Also, yesterday’s massive FAA computer system outage that temporarily brought nearly all air travel to a total halt in the US was occurring at the same time mover and shaker Mars was pretty much motionless in the sky, ahead of today’s official direct stationing. Perhaps also symbolizing a final bit of icing on the Mars Rx-Mercury Rx double-layer cake! 🙂

So anyway, the bright hope today among many stargazers such as myself, is that with galvanizing Mars seemingly springing into direct motion again we will also, likewise, reclaim the spring in our step, in the days and weeks ahead (Mars will be in its shadow until mid-March) – assuming we have lost it, of course, in the first place – and go on to resume doing even greater things in the world, with the Mars Rx phase theoretically marking a pause period when we were, more or less, rethinking, redoing, overhauling many of our dashing Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers dance steps in our already very crammed-full heads (thanks, in part, to all the Mars in Gemini heightened cognitive activity!)

Too, at the risk of becoming kind of misty-eyed here – even those of us with two left feet – are even beginning to feel a bit more optimistic now about the promising possibilities ahead. Just have to take down Mercury Rx in Capricorn on the 18th and we will pretty much be all set! One down, one to go! 🙂

Born On This Day: Swami Vivekananda (born Narendranath Datta), an Indian Hindu monk, philosopher, author, religious teacher, and the chief disciple of the Indian mystic Ramakrishna. He was a key figure in the introduction of Vedanta and Yoga to the Western world; and is credited with raising interfaith awareness and bringing Hinduism to the status of a major world religion (Wikipedia):

“All the powers in the universe are already ours.” 

Hope it’s a good one! Please be safe and well.

Astrology January 11, 2023: A Grand Earth Trine

Cosmic Weather:

“Thinking: the talking of the soul with itself.” – Plato

This second Wednesday in January, we are treated to a Grand Earth Trine – courtesy of skilled maven Luna in Virgo. This type of configuration is created when a trio of planets in the Earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn) form an equilateral triangle of three trines in the sky. In a nutshell, it is thought to be a boon for productivity and delivering concrete results.

Luna forms the first leg of this Grand Trine to intellectual Mercury Rx in Capricorn (9:58 am). Ideally, an excellent time to gather/reflect upon our thoughts or partake in constructive dialogue with others. We may also have more insight into the inner workings of our emotions at this time.

Too, if we have to speak or present things publicly today – particularly of a business or corporate nature – this Moon-Mercury trine may be a more advantageous time to do so since this flow of more pragmatic energy naturally lends itself well to discussing more granular topics such as facts and figures, presiding over spreadsheet presentations, detailing quarterly forecasts/reports etc. (although with Mercury Rx, there could still be some revisions with these matters, down the road).

Luna’s trine to inventive Uranus Rx in Taurus (4:17 pm). This completes the second leg of the Moon’s Grand Trine. It is a period in which we may be more experimental or spontaneous in our approaches, including perhaps with respect to managing our finances, possessions, or investments. It may also be a time when we enjoy social interactions with large groups of people or involvement in cause-related or civic activities. On an emotional level, we may feel a special burst of aliveness.

*All times EST

Born On This Day: William James (January 11, 1842 – August 26, 1910). James was an American philosopher, historian, and psychologist, and the first educator to offer a psychology course in the United States. James is considered to be a leading thinker of the late 19th century:

“We are like islands in the sea, separate on the surface but connected in the deep.”

Astrology January 10, 2023: Luna Exits Leo, Shifts into Virgo

Cosmic Weather:

“What we truly need to do is often what we most feel like avoiding.” – David Allen

Somewhat quieter on the celestial front today as we await Mars stationing direct in Gemini on Thursday.

The transition from Leo to Virgo is always rather stark, isn’t it? As we are essentially going from wanting to be the “life of the party” to officially becoming part of the late night “clean-up crew!” 🙂

Ideally, the Moon’s two-day transit of Virgo now will help us to become more self-disciplined, efficient, and productive. More solution minded. Allow us to build up or flex our organizational muscles. And hopefully inspire us to, overall, take better care of ourselves – body, mind, and spirit. It is also generally regarded as an excellent time to set up new daily routines or habits.

“Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.” – Jim Ryun

(Moon exits Leo and enters Virgo 10:15 am.)

*All times EST

Born On This Day: American singer Pat Benatar [Andrezejewski] in Brooklyn NY. Benatar is turning 70 today! “Love Is A Battlefield” remains one of Benatar’s best songs: it rose to No. 5 on the Hot 100, her highest place on the chart to date.

On This Day in History: RCA introduces the 45 RPM record in 1949. A format that would revolutionize pop music.

Astrologically, that day, intellectual Mercury and pioneering Mars were in a tight, two-degree conjunction in inventive Aquarius, the sign formally ruling technology. Mercury and Mars pairings can also often signal big events or situations that grab or generate the headlines. Meanwhile, artistic Venus in Gemini, governing music and the arts, was also in an exact opposition with revolutionizing Uranus in Sagittarius, the modern-day ruler of Aquarius. Venus also reflects what provides us with pleasure or amusement and often when linked with Uranus we long for a change of pace, including sometimes seeking out radically new experiences/people/situations that make us feel more alive.

Hope it’s a good one! Please be safe and well.

Cosmic Weather:

“The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.” – Dr. Seuss, I Can Read With My Eyes Shut!

Mercury Rx in Capricorn Trine Uranus Rx in Taurus (6:23 pm): This aspect can be very mentally stimulating. It can inspire us to want to learn new things, help us to craft new, sometimes even ingenious solutions to old problems. We also may be more prone now to speaking our minds – although with Mercury nestled in cautious Capricorn, we may still prefer to have at least some kind of personal filter or content moderation system in place, lest we inadvertently draw the scrutiny of the FBI or something. 🙂 At the same time, we may not necessarily wig out now either, if we see someone bending or breaking the rules, especially if we see some utility or wisdom in doing that sort of thing as we suspect that some of the old way of thinking or systems in place may be possibly irrelevant or misguided or even obsolete with respect to what we and others are trying to achieve at the moment.

Additionally, this aspect can fire up our intuition as well as make us more eager to deviate from our daily routines. We also may be more attracted to unusual types of people, be more cause-oriented, or find ourselves in novel situations that require new adaptive responses on our part.

We first had this Mercury trine Uranus aspect on December 17th. We will also have it a third or final time on January 29th when both Mercury and Uranus will be direct; Mercury stations direct on January 18th and Uranus follows suit on January 22 – just a day after the Uranus-ruled New Moon in Aquarius.

It is also possible that today we are revisiting a matter that we first dealt with on December 17th, perhaps seeing it in a new light now.

Waning Luna is also spending her first full day in creative, magnanimous Leo today, having shifted into that sign, late yesterday. Luna’s sextile to Mars Rx in Gemini (2:19 pm) signals a time to take the lead or show initiative in matters. It also favors physical activity or workouts.

“Our chief want is someone who will inspire us to be what we know we could be.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson

Born On This Day – Elvis Aaron Presley, “The King of Rock and Roll,” in 1935, in Tupelo, Mississippi: “THANK YA THANK YA VERY MUCH.”

Cosmic Weather:

“For last year’s words belong to last year’s language
And next year’s words await another voice.
And to make an end is to make a beginning.” – T.S. Eliot

Venus conjunct Pluto in Capricorn (12:25 am) – Helps us to feel things with greater passion or intensity. Sometimes it can feel a little bit like a soap opera playing out, relationship-wise, with some elements of jealousy or possessiveness threaded through it, although with this aspect occurring in more constrained Capricorn – where outward appearances matter very much – this may be less the case.

Also, for those of us in the eastern time zone of the US, this is the very first aspect of the new year, so we maybe have to be wondering what kind of symbolism, if any, it is sending about the overall nature of 2023? Could it possibly be we need to hire a Hollywood agent, this year, and audition for a role on The Young and Restless? Too, I am personally wondering, do they even allow old and restless people (like myself) on to that set – or are we simply going to be limited to playing the bit part ‘greeter roles’ at Walmart for the rest of our lives?

Taurus Moon trine Capricorn Sun (8:42 am) – Anyway – on paper today, at least – it looks like we are poised to start the new year off on solid footing this morning – once we can motivate ourselves to get out from under the steamy Venus-Pluto sheets! This Moon-Sun trine, in earth signs, is excellent grounding energy. Too, depending on how much partying we did last night, it usually is ideal for such activities as planning, budget-crunching, and getting organized. Capricorn Sun native, Benjamin Franklin, once said, “If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail.” No doubt, too, if ole’ Ben were still alive today, he would be busy cavorting with Mercury Rx in Capricorn now and they would both be tallying up all the liquor receipts from NYE.

Taurus Moon conjunct Uranus Rx (4:52 pm) – Of course, all of this record-keeping stuff will likely have to come to a screeching halt once rogue Uranus puts in his disheveled appearance. There’s no telling where he has stashed his bitcoin receipts and Sam Bankman-Fried won’t pony up. 🙂

*All times EST

Born On This Day: J. Edgar Hoover, in Washington DC, in 1895 (d. 5/2/77). He served as the first Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. He was appointed director of the Bureau of Investigation – the FBI’s predecessor – in 1924 and was instrumental in founding the FBI in 1935, where he remained director for another 37 years until his death in 1972.

Hoover built the FBI into a larger crime-fighting agency than it was at its inception and instituted a number of modernizations to police technology, such as a centralized fingerprint file and forensic laboratories. Hoover also established and expanded a national blacklist, referred to as the FBI Index or Index List. Later in life and after his death, Hoover became a controversial figure as evidence of his secretive abuses of power began to surface (of course, some might also say that this same sort of thing is still going on at the FBI). Wikipedia

“When morals decline and good men do nothing, evil flourishes.” – J. Edgar Hoover

On that cheery note, would like to wish everyone a “Happy New Year!” Hope that you prosper and enjoy good health in 2023. I appreciate your stopping by.

Cosmic Weather:

“Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storms, but to add color to my sunset sky.” – Rabindranath Tagore

Waning Moon in Libra sextiles the Sun in Sagittarius (5:03 pm): Optimally, this prompts us to want to create more space in our lives for beauty, art, balance, and justice. A desire for personal freedom is also paired with a need for collaboration.

Mars Rx in Gemini sesquiquadrate Pluto in Capricorn (5:19 pm): Attempts at self-assertion may be bogged down by fears or worries. Temporarily stepping away, however, may help us to gain a greater perspective and a restored sense of self-confidence.

“I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning to how to sail my ship.” – Louisa May Alcott

Luna will also close out her Sunday with a shift into Scorpio (10:31 pm), encouraging us to go deeper with our emotions. Simply acknowledging our feelings without judgment is often a good point of entry here.

*All times EST

Born On This Day: Musician and songwriter Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones, in Dartford, England. Richards is 79 today. Reportedly, he wrote the music to “Satisfaction” in his sleep and recorded a rough version of it on a Phillips cassette player when he woke up. :

Astrology October 9, 2022: Full Moon in Aries

“I found power in accepting the truth of who I am. It may not be a truth that others can accept, but I cannot live any other way. How would it be to live a lie every minute of your life?” – Alison Goodman

Nice enough quote. But unfortunately, for those of us who may still be a little or a lot baffled navigating through the hazy, never-ending, much-ballyhooed ‘self-discovery process,’ today’s revelatory Full Moon in “I Am” Aries may feel enormously intimidating and frustrating as it boldly prompts us to make ourselves a priority, to take chances, and to live out our whole truth on an impromptu stack of bibles or coloring books or whatever is available or handy at the moment. Yet, where is the official, step-by-step instruction manual on precisely how to do all this? There has got to be one lurking about somewhere. After all, it is 2022! We did not just arrive here by boat yesterday. Too, not everyone is interested in reinventing the wheel. Maybe that is because we are not yet that desperate!

Also, what if we fall off a cliff in the process of flying by the seat of our pants? – a common Aries practice. Who is going to be there to rescue us toting a big bowl of hot chicken soup? Chances are nobody! – except maybe a plaintiff’s attorney born under the sign of Cancer. But that is how the fearless Full Moon in Aries rolls: We are pretty much on our own – and that’s that – and we are supposed to revel and delight in this awful, woeful Libra-denying reality.

But isn’t it also natural – and actually very healthy and maybe admirable – to declare that we may have cold feet or serious doubts about all the supposed ultimate payoffs of giving ourselves full rein to be exactly who we are? Meaning we would perhaps rather just wait it out until the final verdict is in.

Plus, today’s Full Moon conjuncts wounded warrior Chiron – which likely means we will be shamed big time if we even think for a moment about comparing ourselves to others. Even worse if we find ourselves lacking in the comparison – which no doubt would ostracize us for life from participating in nearly everything under both the Sun and Moon combined. Cannot even imagine a much worse fate – except maybe also being banned for life from Twitter. Think I am already feeling Wednesday’s “out-of-body” Mars-Neptune square. 🙂

“I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member.” – Groucho Marx

If it were only that easy.

Born On This Day: Beatle John Lennon in 1940 in Liverpool, England (d. 1980):

“When you do something noble and beautiful and nobody notices, do not be sad. For the sun every morning is a beautiful spectacle and yet most of the audience still sleeps.”

Happy Full Moon blessings! Hope it’s fun! Please be safe and well.

Astrology February 26, 2022: Waning Luna Remains in Capricorn

“If I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.” Mahatma Gandhi

This Saturday, waning Luna – now in her crescent phase – remains all day long in serious, capable Capricorn, the surefooted sign of the goat. Being responsible, doing what is required of us, having the ability to make judgment calls in difficult situations are natural themes. Additionally, there is some willingness to explore new realms, adopt new practices, as Luna trines progressive Uranus in Taurus (6:40 am) and sextiles philosophical Jupiter in transpersonal Pisces (9:43 am). The Moon-Jupiter influence may also poise us to lean more into our faith or inspire us to make personal sacrifices for the perceived greater good. There may also be a desire to share with others some of the life lessons that we have learned, with the Moon in her disseminating stage.

All times EST

This Day in History: On February 26, 1616, the Roman Inquisition delivers an injunction to astronomer and physicist Galileo Galilei demanding he abandons his belief in heliocentrism, which states the Earth and planets revolve around the Sun. At the time, Galileo had the transiting Mars, in scientifically-minded Aquarius, applying two degrees to an exact square to his natal Mars in Taurus and quincunx to his natal Jupiter in Cancer. Mars aspects often challenge us to vigorously defend ourselves – including specifically having to defend our beliefs, when aligned with Jupiter – the planet which symbolizes our worldviews as well as areas pertaining to the cosmos and outer space.

Born On This Day: The late iconic country singer and performer Johnny Cash, in 1932, in Kingsland, Arkansas. Cash’s long musical career spanned from 1954 to 2003; during that time he recorded 91 albums and 170 singles. Some of Cash’s most famous songs: Folsom Prison Blues, Ring of Fire, and I Walk The Line.

In Johnny Cash’s birth chart, Jupiter, in entertainment Leo, was exactly conjunct his sixth house cusp of work and artisanship – no doubt playing a role in his prolific musical output and talent; Jupiter, by its expansive nature, tends to magnify everything it touches. This planet was also exactly trine to his natal Venus/Uranus conjunction in bold, pioneering Aries, perhaps adding to his originality, artistic flair, and special brand of personal charisma. Interestingly, the late legendary actress Elizabeth Taylor was born just one day after Cash and reportedly sent him a telegram on his birthday, every year.

Hope it’s a good one. Please be safe and well.

Cosmic Weather:

“Look at everything always as though you were seeing it either for the first or last time: Thus is your time on earth filled with glory.” – Betty Smith, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn.

On this glorious “hump day,” we are treated to a waning Luna entering philosophical, freedom-loving Sagittarius (8:29 am).

Energizing Mars in Capricorn is also forming a waning sextile to dreamy Neptune in Pisces (2:12 pm). There is an infusion of practical wherewithal and yearning to pursue our dreams in a more creative or imaginative way. Our actions may also be guided more by compassion or caring for the underdog. We are also possibly more tempted to overlook or forgive grievances/transgressions in a bid to foster or usher in healing. One shadow side here: We may be more prone to engaging in delusional or too fanciful behavior now, which is why we may want to wait for certain things to gel before going all in on something that is relatively new or untested. It is also probably a good thing that Mars is deposited in “show-me-the-money” Capricorn, as it may help us remain more tethered to the ground.

Finally, we have the Last Quarter Moon occurring this afternoon (5:32 pm). With Luna decreasing in light, this is generally not the time for embarking on new beginnings; rather, it is a period for applying finishing touches as well as for re-assessing or updating what we have recently learned or been made aware of. Our understanding of what we deem to be the truth could also be shifting.

*All Times EST

Born On This Day: Naruhito, Emperor of Japan, in 1960, in Tokyo, Japan. He succeeded to the Chrysanthemum Throne on May 1, 2019, following the abdication of his father, Akihito, the day before, beginning the Reiwa period. According to Japan’s traditional order of succession, he is the 126th member of the dynasty.

(Naruhito ascended to the throne in the midst of his second Saturn return in Capricorn. Transiting Saturn was also exactly conjunct his natal sixth house, governing work or duties, often a time of new responsibilities as well as a period when our day-to-day life can become more entangled.

Hope it’s a good one! Please stay safe and well.

“Never apologize for showing your feelings. When you do, you are apologizing for the truth.” – Jose N. Harris

We start out our Monday catching a nice break from the Waning Moon in Scorpio trining the Sun in Pisces (9:27 am EST), an influence that hopefully allows us to feel more emotionally at ease with ourselves, and more inclined to show or reveal more of our intimate side, depending on the situation around us. Luna in Scorpio, by nature, generally tends to be more circumspect or guarded regarding who she lets into her inner circle; the Sun in Pisces intrinsically promotes more of a willingness to dissolve or blur the boundaries in a bid to foster a sense of oneness or immersion.

Intellectual Mercury in Aquarius is also semi-square Neptune in Pisces (10:13 am EST), suggesting some muddled communications or messages to wade through. In any case, if the facts don’t add up or we intuitively sense that something is missing or incomplete, we may want to victoriously hit the pause button, until more is known.

Born on This Day: French writer Anais Nin, in 1903. She once wrote: “We write to taste life twice, in the moment and in retrospect.” 

Hope it’s a good one! Please be safe and well. I’ve missed you!
