Astrology December 31, 2023: Moon Enters Self-improvement Virgo

daily astrology, Moon in Virgo, On This Day in History, self-improvement, setting intentions, WWII

Cosmic Weather:

“No matter who you are, no matter what you did, no matter where you’ve come from, you can always change, become a better version of yourself.” – Madonna

On this very last day of 2023, perhaps it is fitting that Waning Luna is shifting into perfecting Virgo (6:54 am), as many of us go about crafting/rolling out our well-meaning list of NYE intentions/resolutions for next year now, with self-improvement strategies likely nearing the top of that list.

(In fact, according to a recent October survey by Forbes, the most commonly selected new year’s resolution for 2024 among respondents was fitness. Also, 62% of respondents stated that they felt pressured to set a new year’s resolution.)

With the daily Moon transiting Virgo, we tend to focus on optimizing our resources, troubleshooting, tidying up, and being of service. Virgo can also be more health conscious.

Early this afternoon, Luna opposes minimalist, restrictive Saturn in Pisces (1:24 pm). While this influence is thought to impart a more exacting, less social vibe, it may be ideal for planning or decluttering as well as reflection.

Luna’s trine to expansive, jovial Jupiter in Taurus (6:10 pm) could be described as almost a polar opposite to the Moon-Saturn energy as it is perceived to be both upbeat and inclusive. The champagne glass is unequivocally half-full at this time!

“I believe when life gives you lemons, you should make lemonade…and try to find someone whose life has given them vodka and have a party.” – Ron White

*All times EST

On This Day in History: US President Harry Truman signs Presidential Proclamation 2714, which officially declared the cessation of all hostilities in WWII.

Even though the actual combat of the war ended May 8, 1945, in Europe and September 2, 1945, in the Pacific, the state of war was not lifted off of Japan and Germany in order to give a reason for the necessity of occupation troops in these countries. Once the War Crime Trials were over, the hostilities were seen as over.

The signing of Presidential Proclamation 2714 is also the legal basis for the end of World War II. As a result, any person who served between December 7,1941 and December 31, 1946, is considered a World War II veteran. (Wikipedia)

Among the astrological aspects on 12/31/46: Mars, the planet of war, was just separating from an exact conjunction to the authoritative Sun in Capricorn, the sign of government. Mars was also exactly square to dissolving Neptune in Libra, the sign of peace and diplomacy. Mars square Neptune sometimes suggests an avoidance of direct confrontation, often due to weariness or tiredness. It may also signal passive-aggressive or deceptive/delusional behavior. Thought it was very interesting, though, that in this case, it was correlated with the formal recognition of the cessation of hostilities.  Mars is also thought to be exalted in Capricorn because its actions when in that sign are perceived to be more cautious, disciplined, and strategic.

**********

Happy New Year’s Eve!

I know this has been a tough year for many, but hopefully things will be better in 2024. 

“The day the power of love overrules the love of power, the world will know peace.” – Mahatma Gandhi

Astrology December 30, 2023: Jupiter Stations Direct in Taurus

born on this day, building, daily astrology, Jupiter stations direct in Taurus, money, values

Cosmic Weather:

“Honor your desire for a new life. Say yes to the small inklings of interest and curiosity that present themselves each day.” – Lynn A. Robinson

Jupiter, symbolizing the urge for growth and abundance, stations direct in earthy Taurus today (9:40 pm) – the sign of the builder archetype – suggesting that we are about ready to don the hardhat and pick up the hammer and get down to business, once again, erecting our own brick and mortar version of Field of Dreams.

Jupiter has been retrograde since September 4th, during which time we presumably diligently labored over, reviewed, or revised a labyrinth of ingenious blueprints all earmarked for our continuing success and acclaim in the world.

With Jupiter transiting through more tangibly minded Taurus, the sign of money, possessions, and values, we tend to place greater focus, at this time, on satisfying or managing our material needs, including our desire for safety and security. Too, as much as we may not want to admit it, a good chunk of our daily lives often revolves around managing or caring for what we have materially – and the better we are at doing this sort of thing, the better off our lives usually are.

“A penny saved is a penny earned.” – Benjamin Franklin

The Waning Moon also remains in playful, theatrical Leo all day.

*All times EST

Born On This Day:  English author Rudyard Kipling (Jungle Book) in 1865 in Bombay, British India (d. 1936).

Kipling once wrote: “If history were taught in the form of stories, it would never be forgotten.”

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

Astrology December 28, 2023: Mars Squares Neptune

born on this day, daily astrology, feeling out of sorts, Mars Squares Neptune, motivation

Cosmic Weather:

Mars in Sagittarius squares Neptune in Pisces (5:16 pm)

We may want to consider channeling our inner head coach today and call for a time out with this one! Especially if we’ve been fumbling the ball of late. Sometimes with this aspect our actions have somehow become disconnected or cut off from our original motivations or intentions here, so everything sort of feels foreign or out of step to us now – meaning we’re primed for a reset.

“Too often, it feels like our mistakes pile up, while our accomplishments disappear. With the right support at the right moments, we can overcome obstacles to growth.” – Adam Grant, Hidden Potential

On another level, the Mars-Neptune may signal a day when we feel more inclined to give back or be of service to others in some way, especially since this energy tends to dissolve/deny the ego.

*All times EST

Born On This Day: Author, relationship counselor John Gray, in 1951, in Houston, TX.

“If I seek to fulfill my own needs at the expense of my partner, we are sure to experience unhappiness, resentment, and conflict. The secret of forming a successful relationship is for both partners to win.” John Gray, Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus.

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

Astrology December 27, 2023: Sun Trines Jupiter Rx

assumptions, born on this day, daily astrology, generosity, goodwill, Johannes Kepler, Mercury conjunct Mars, Mercury square Neptune, Sun trine Jupiter

Cosmic Weather:

“The explanation requiring the fewest assumptions is most likely to be correct.” – William of Ockham

While assumptions often serve as shortcuts for our brains, with mental Mercury Rx squaring psychedelic Neptune in Pisces today (exact at 2:43 am) we may do best just sticking with the facts now, especially regarding decision-making – unless we perhaps have extra time on our hands to explore a plethora of rabbit holes. It is thought (or assumed, for that matter!) that Neptune’s activated ray tends to obscure issues or fogs things over, making it harder to see the true nature of what is before us. It is commonly associated with wishful or fanciful thinking.

Later this evening, Mercury Rx also conjuncts action-planet Mars in philosophical Sagittarius (exact at 7:31 pm), potentially amping up our mental energy and maybe setting the stage for rounds of lively discussions or conversations. On the shadow side, Mercury-Mars conjunctions have a reputation for being very pushy or in-your-face! It is also possible that with the Mercury Rx we are revisiting or mulling over some previous decision or action.

Also, it appears that jolly Santa, i.e. Jupiter Rx in Taurus, may be turned around a tad, directionally, by the Mercury Rx-Neptune square as he is orbiting/trining the Scroogelike Capricorn Sun today (exact at 10:28 am) instead of hanging out with Mrs. Claus at the North Pole. Whether this actually results in more goodies in our Christmas stockings now, however, remains to be seen. 🙂

Sun trine Jupiter, among other things, is often perceived as increasing our personal reserves of goodwill, generosity, and optimism – and sometimes even our quota of luck or good fortune – as Jupiter has traditionally been linked with increased prosperity or at least an easing of circumstances. We may also be more inclined now to want to grow or expand our personal world in some manner.

“I am a strong believer in luck and I find the harder I work the more I have of it.” – Ben Franklin

Born On This Day: Astronomer/astrologer Johannes Kepler, who discovered the laws of planetary motion. Kepler was born in 1571 in Weil der Stadt, Holy Roman Empire (d. 1630).

“The soul of the newly born baby is marked for life by the pattern of the stars at the moment it comes into the world, unconsciously remembers it, and remains sensitive to the return of configurations of a similar kind.” – Johannes Kepler, Harmonies of the World

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

Astrology December 26, 2023: Full Moon in Cancer

26 Tuesday Dec 2023

born on this day, daily astrology, daily numerology, Full Moon Cancer, reflection, safety and security

Cosmic Weather:

“Only the heart knows how to find what is precious.” – Fyodor Dostoyevsky

Familiarity may be less likely to breed contempt with a Full Moon occurring in Moon-ruled Cancer (7:33 pm), the go-to sign for nurturing, safety, and comfort. A nostalgic domain that tenderly leaves a night light on for us to enter the subjective chambers of our mystifying emotions and heady imagination. Carl Jung once wrote: “Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.”

Full Moons are thought to naturally endow us with greater awareness as what has been gradually building inside us (since the New Moon) is now suddenly released or awarded its angel wings for immediate, deft processing. Needless to say, this can be a great period for journalling, or formally capturing those aha moments.

Structuring Saturn and expansive Jupiter are also both favorably aligned to this final lunation of 2023, suggesting that we have a rich supply of maturity, practicality, and positivity to tap into as we carefully sort through or try to make sense of whatever it is that is being generously revealed to us now by the powers that be. Jupiter’s upbeat ray can also especially help us to minimize our fears by directing us to focus more on our faith or convictions.

“All the world is made of faith, and trust, and pixie dust.” – J.M. Barrie

Numerologically, 12-26-2023 reduces down to the master numbers of 8 and 9, with 8 signifying a display of power and strength and 9 suggesting completeness or ending of a cycle.

“The most important thing is this: to sacrifice what you are now for what you can become tomorrow.” – Shannon Alder

*All times EST

Born On This Day: American novelist, short story writer and essayist, Henry Miller, in 1891 in New York City (d. June 7, 1980).

Miller once wrote: “Life moves on whether we act as cowards or heroes.” 

Full Moon Blessings to you!

Astrology November 22, 2023: Sun Enters Aspirational Sagittarius

22 Wednesday Nov 2023

anaretic degree, beliefs, ChatGPT, daily astrology, dreams, Sam Altman, Sun enters Sagittarius

Cosmic Weather:

“The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark.” – Michelangelo Buonarroti

The illuminating Sun – thought to govern our will, ego, and basic urge to be – rockets into aspirational, Jupiter-ruled Sagittarius today (9:03 am), potentially ratcheting up our desire to chase big dreams, hug distant new horizons. Also, a time when we may feel more comfortable using the bully pulpit to express/declare our views.

Motivator Mars, the action-planet, now nearing the ‘anaretic ‘ or 29th degree of Scorpio, will also be entering Sadge on the 24th as the Sun and Mars are still orbiting in conjunction (or in close proximity) to each other.

Sun-Mars energy is often associated with ushering in sudden, fast-moving developments. Too, on the shadow side, sometimes this more fluid pairing may coincide with partaking in rash or more impulsive behavior or actions that we may regret later.

Interestingly, the Sun and Mars were exactly conjunct this past Saturday morning, in secretive Scorpio (12:42 am), just prior to when CEO Sam Altman of OpenAI was reportedly axed by board members of that company for reasons that are still unknown, immediately sending ‘Scorpionic’ shockwaves throughout Silicon Valley and beyond. Now today, there are reports circulating that Altman has been re-instated as CEO at OpenAI – the company that is the purveyor of the popular ChatGPT.

Meanwhile, Waxing Luna leaves compassionate Pisces for enterprising Aries today (12:19 pm). Luna will also harmoniously trine the newly ensconced Sagittarius Sun, shortly thereafter (12:35 pm), hopefully allowing for an easy flow between our inner and outer selves. The Aries Moon may also enhance our desire to spontaneously, and more confidently or courageously, put things into motion now, especially with the Sun and Mars (which rules the Aries Moon) still paired together.

*All times EST

Born On This Day: Second US First Lady Abigail Adams (Mother of John Quincy Adams) in 1744 in Weymouth, MA (d 1818).

“If we mean to have heroes, statesmen and philosophers, we should have learned women.” – Abigail Adams

Amen to that! 🙂

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

Astrology November 21, 2023: Mars Sextiles Makeover Guru Pluto

daily astrology, focus, makeovers, Mars sextile Pluto, On This Day in History, smoking law

Cosmic Weather:

“The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek.” – Joseph Campbell

Today’s more penetrating Mars-Pluto sextile (exact at 8:18 pm) suggests that it may be easier now to align with our deepest desires as well as hidden motivations (Pluto signifies the subconscious) and, as a consequence, ideally be able to implement or manifest conditions around us that are more congruent with who we are at our core. Kind of like being able to adjust our radio dial to the exact frequency that we vibrate to so there is little to no interference.

Too, it may be an especially good time to engage ourselves with projects that we can get lost in for hours – in other words, that put us “in the zone” – because these types of all-encompassing activities tend to fully replenish our body, mind, and spirit. Mars-Pluto energy is widely perceived to equip us with a heightened ability to focus our time, attention, and resources.

“Always remember, your focus determines your reality.” – George Lucas

*All times EST

On This Day in History: On November 21, 1989, a law banning smoking on most domestic flights is signed by US President George H. Bush.

Astrologically, that day, action-oriented Mars was applying to a conjunction with Pluto in the transformational sign of Scorpio (an influence similar to what we have today). This planetary alignment is usually regarded as motivating us to tackle more consequential projects or undertakings often in a bid to dramatically reshape or alter the playing field around us. Mars was also nearly exactly sextile to a Neptune and Saturn conjunction in Saturn-ruled Capricorn. Dissolving Neptune rules, among other things, drugs and substance abuse issues, while ringed planet Saturn represents our ability to set limits or put restrictions around matters. Capricorn also rules government intervention.

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

Astrology September 13, 2023: The Balsamic Moon in Virgo

13 Wednesday Sep 2023

Balsamic Moon, born on this day, daily astrology, reflection

Cosmic Weather:

“I love the dark hours of my being. My mind deepens into them. There I can find, as in old letters, the days of my life, already lived, and held like a legend, and understood.” – Rainer Maria Rilke

Waning Luna – now in her Balsamic phase – shifted from showy Leo to nuts and bolts Virgo, early today (1:18 am), with a New Moon on tap for tomorrow night. This Moon phase is thought to be a premier time to ponder past moments with a hopeful eye to perhaps plucking away some jeweled insights that we can ideally use to make our lives shine brighter somehow in the stretch ahead. Especially advantageous for us now is the fact that the Moon is in professional film critic Virgo which can often help us to cut through a lot of the fluff at warp speed.

Luna also converses with Saturn Rx in Pisces, this morning (6:31 am), via an opposition aspect, suggesting some possible pushback should we go against “the rules” or not recognize or honor inherent limitations.

Luna also conjuncts Mercury Rx, late this afternoon (6:04 pm), with the Winged Messenger stationing direct on Friday. Talking about our feelings now or jotting them down in words may serve to usher in greater clarity. This may also be a good time to troubleshoot and find practical solutions or fixes to problems.

“It is better to solve one problem five different ways, than to solve five problems one way.” – George Pólya

*All times EDT

Born On This Day: Bill Monroe, American singer known as the “Father of Bluegrass” (“Blue Moon of Kentucky”). Monroe was born in Rosine, Kentucky in 1911 (d. 1996).

“I’m a farmer with a mandolin and a high tenor voice.” – Bill Monroe

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

born on this day, creativity, daily astrology, decluttering

Cosmic Weather:

“The creative adult is the child who survived.” – Ursula Le Guin

The Waning Crescent Moon remains in colorful Leo all day. This may be positive for applying some last-minute creative flourishes to projects or activities that are nearing completion in order to ideally give them a tad more pizzaz or punch.

Teamwork or collaborative efforts are also potentially more supported this morning with Luna’s sextile to energizer Mars in cooperative Libra (8:06 am EDT).

Too, it may be easier to summon forth our inner social butterfly, this afternoon, as Luna conjuncts sweet Venus, Libra’s ruler (3:32 pm).

Today’s Waning Moon is also supportive for any releasing or decluttering activities. The Moon-Venus conjunction may also inspire us to want to seek to beautify our home environment or surroundings.

“Design is coming to grips with one’s real lifestyle, one’s real place in the world. Rooms should not be put together for show but to nourish one’s well-being.” — Albert Hadley

Born On This Day: English poet and writer D.H. Lawrence (Lady Chatterley’s Lover) in Eastwood, Nottinghamshire in 1885 (d. 1930).

“We’ve got to live, no matter how many skies have fallen.” – D. H. Lawrence

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

Bob Dylan, daily astrology, getting organized, Mercury square Saturn, On This Day in History, serious thinking

Cosmic Weather:

“Simple can be harder than complex. You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it’s worth it in the end because once you get there, you can move mountains.” – Steve Jobs

This Thursday, intellectual Mercury in Gemini squares minimalist Saturn in Pisces (12:09 pm) so the idea of “doing more with less” may work to our advantage. It’s an excellent aspect for focusing, long-term planning, getting organized, whittling down our decision-making. In general, solid preparation can help to override our worries or fears now. It could also be that any rejection we may experience now may turn out to be a blessing in disguise.

“Every time I thought I was being rejected from something good, I was actually being re-directed to something better.” – Steve Maraboli

*All times EDT

On This Day in History: On June 15, 1965, Bob Dylan records his iconic single “Like a Rolling Stone.” It is the #1 song in Rolling Stone magazine’s “500 Greatest Songs of All Time.”

Astrologically, that day, artistic Venus in Cancer was involved in a Grand Trine in water with structuring Saturn in Pisces and imaginative Neptune in Scorpio – a very harmonious configuration that is thought to make it easier for us to manifest our visions or dreams, especially those of a creative nature, as this aspect suggests in-depth creative potential as well as depth of feeling.

Confrontational Mars, in critiquing Virgo, was also applying to an exact square to the empowering Sun in wordsmith Gemini – seemingly a perfect match for the song’s more confrontational lyrics. The lyrics are about a woman – a debutante – who has lost everything and is now living on the streets. The song is often interpreted as a commentary on the changing times of the 1960s. (Wikipedia)

Today’s Birthdays: Xi Jinping, the President of China, is turning 70 today. CNN journalist Dana Bash is also 52.
