“You cannot solve a problem with the same level of consciousness that created it.” Carl Jung

COSMIC WATCH:

Assertive Mars, the planet of motivation and desire, has been in creative, self-expressive Leo, since late August, but today it shifts into problem-solving Virgo (7:05 am EDT), where it will stay until December 7. With Mars passing through logical, analytical Virgo we have wonderful energy to tap into for getting our affairs in proper order, over the next several weeks, as well as making significant progress and headway on tackling difficult issues that we have perhaps not wanted to face for a while. Mars in Virgo helps to strengthen our resolve and determination and can make us very disciplined and resourceful in carrying out our mundane tasks and responsibilities. It is also an excellent time to upgrade our skills and or focus on various self-improvement projects. Virgo also governs diet and health areas, so now might be a great time to commit to eating better or getting more exercise.

While Mars in authoritative Leo wants to run the show and craves ego recognition, Mars in Virgo is perfectly content to function behind the scenes as a humble worker bee, in proud service to others. “…talent means nothing, while experience, acquired in humility and with hard work, means everything.” Patrick Suskind

Famous Birthdays October 15: Lee Iacocca, Penny Marshall, Sarah Ferguson (Duchess of York).

“In times of great stress or adversity, it’s always best to keep busy, to plow your anger and your energy into something positive.” Lee Iacocca

Enjoy your Tuesday! I’ve missed being with you.

Astrology August 23, 2013: Moon Enters Aries, Mercury into Virgo

COSMIC WATCH:

“You are what you do, not what you say you’ll do.” Carl Jung

Our actions help to define who we are, they are the building blocks of our destiny and character. While we may have admirable intentions to do certain things, such as perhaps going on a fasting diet or vacuuming that unsightly, dust-laden carpet in the den, until we set those laudable inklings into motion, they’re still holed up in what could be described as the “Neptunian pipedream phase,” an ambiguous holding bin where it’s often easy for our hopes and desires to sheepishly recede or wither away. President Franklin D. Roosevelt once noted “There are many ways of going forward, but only one way of standing still.”

With the Moon’s ingress into “initiating” Aries today (3:13 am EDT), the Universe is likely hinting to us that it’s time to get back on the batter’s mound and take another stab at our dreams. With both the Sun and Mercury also shifting into analyzing, studious Virgo, we may find it easier to be more organized and systematic in our approach now, for the next few weeks. I know this morning already, I found myself reaching for several index cards so that I could take copious notes from a book that I was reading – telltale evidence of very Virgo-ish behavior, I’m afraid. 🙂

How might you “get on base” today?

Famous Birthdays August 23: Gene Kelly, James Van Praagh, Kobe Bryant, Rick Springfield.

“I’d rather look forward and dream, than look backward and regret.” James Van Praagh.

Enjoy your Friday!

Astrology December 30, 2012: Sun Conjuncts Pluto, Sextiles Saturn

“The cause is hidden. The effect is visible to all.” Ovid

COSMIC WATCH:

Today, the illuminating Sun is conjunct mysterious, intense Pluto, the symbolic ruler of the subconscious. This configuration has been compared to shining a bright light into a dark cave. We may suddenly become aware of deeper motivations, realities, or facts that were previously absent from our radar screen.

Too, it’s possible that some of what has been hidden or obscured from our view may have been due to a conscious effort, on our part, to not want to acknowledge certain things about ourselves. However, as Carl Jung once astutely stated, “What you resist persists.” It is really only when we have the courage to examine what we don’t want to look at, that we have a chance of finally putting the matter to bed and moving on. Sun-Pluto can also be very healing and transforming, especially when we are willing to face our fears or insecurities. It is also a time when we may want to fix or repair objects that are broken.

On another level, Sun-Pluto also tends to firm up our resolve or will. We can become very passionate now about going after what we want.  Also, on the flip side, we can become keenly aware of what we don’t want any more in our lives and we are not afraid to cut the strings now.

On the shadow side, there can also be a greater chance for power struggles or manipulations to ensue, with this influence, as our egos may be more unwilling to back off from our positions. What we may want to do now, to avoid wading into this sort of behavior, is to consciously seek out a spirit of compromise with each other. See what it is that we can all agree on. To help us out here, too, is a cooperative Sun-Saturn sextile. This constructive influence can inspire us to be more methodical and disciplined in our approach, more willing to delay immediate gratification in favor of obtaining our long-term goals. “As we get past our superficial material wants and instant gratification we connect to a deeper part of ourselves, as well as to others, and the universe.” Judith Wright

Famous People with Sun conjunct Pluto: Martha Stewart, Mick Jagger, Patrick Swayze, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Elisabeth Kubler-Ross.

Famous December 30 Birthdays: Tiger Woods, Heidi Fleiss, Rudyard Kipling.

“Borrow trouble for yourself, if that’s your nature, but don’t lend it to your neighbors.” Rudyard Kipling

What could you commit to today that would likely move you forward, closer to your dreams?

Astrology September 13, 2012: Venus Trines Uranus, Moon in Leo

COSMIC WATCH:

“The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed.”  Carl Jung

Today may be an exhilarating day for forging new connections. Or for group involvement. This is because lovable Venus is trining spontaneous Uranus, the planet of change and experimentation. With this aspect we are more apt to want to shed our inhibitions and seek out novel amusements or pastimes, including mingling with types who do not normally inhabit our social circle.

Too, the Moon in glitzy Leo prompts us to want to do things with extra flair or fanfare. “If everyone would look for that uniqueness then we would have a very colorful world.” Michael Schenker

Famous September 13 Birthdays:  Taryn Power, J.B. Priestley. “I have always been delighted at the prospect of a new day, a fresh try, one more start, with perhaps a bit of magic waiting somewhere behind the morning.” J.B. Priestley

How might you spice up your life today?

Astrology July 18, 2011: Moon in “Mystical” Pisces

17 Sunday Jul 2011

COSMIC WATCH:

“The mystical life is the center of all that I do and all that I think and all that I write.”  William Butler Yeats

The Moon enters “mystical” Pisces (1:13 am EDT) and conjuncts “fantasy” Neptune (2:02 am EDT), the planetary ruler of Pisces. Making the connective thread to “reality” possibly more tenuous for us. Neptune governs our imagination.  It also rules our nocturnal dreams, which we may want to pay more attention to now. Psychologist, Carl Jung, said that we should embrace our dreams as “communications from the unconscious.”   Neptune is also the portal through which we enter “other realms.”

About mid-day, the Pisces Moon’s sextile to transforming Pluto (12:17 pm EDT)  is an opportune time for healing and renewal. Also, what has been hidden from view, may now be revealed.

Later, the Moon’s linkup to abundant Jupiter in sensual Taurus (3:52 pm EDT) puts the pleasures of the earth plane magically within reach. This aspect also helps fuel our optimism.

Famous Birthdays: Former astronaut,  John Glenn, the first American to orbit the Earth, turns 90 today. What I find most intriguing about his horoscope is “otherworld” Neptune, in flashy Leo, is exactly conjunct his 9th house cusp, which is the house of long-distance travel.  He also has Uranus, the planet of aviation that governs the space program and astronauts, exactly trined to transforming Pluto, with the trine being a more harmonious alignment.

Ironically, we presently have transiting Uranus in a more stressful square aspect to Pluto now, with Pluto in “budget-minded” Capricorn. The U.S. space shuttle program (Uranus) will be officially ending (Pluto) this week when Atlantis returns to Earth (Pluto presides over both death and rebirth). Probably not the kind of birthday present John Glenn had in mind.

How do you feel about traveling into outer space? Would you go? Is it a waste of taxpayer money?

“I don’t know what you could say about a day in which you have seen four beautiful sunsets.” John Glenn

Enjoy your Monday!
