COSMIC WATCH:

“Eventually you can get into the nuts and bolts of reality: nurturing, caring, and getting along.” Jody Watley

Love Goddess Venus enters self-protective, security-conscious, “Cancer the Crab,” the sign of home and family today. She will stay in Cancer until July 28th. Venus in Cancer inspires our deeper nurturing and caring impulses, and also heightens our desire for nesting and privacy.

Venus is also trine idealistic Neptune, in tender-hearted Pisces, making us extra forgiving, as well as more “fantasy-prone” in romance. This is a highly creative aspect that is excellent for any activity that calls for the full employment of our imagination. Many artists, musicians, writers, film-makers, and dancers will often have Venus-Neptune aspects prominent in their horoscopes, including the late Hans Christian Andersen, the Danish “fairy tale writer,” famous for his children’s stories.  Too, Venus trine Neptune is a classic aspect of “fairy tale romance,” so there’s a nice, synchronistic tie-in here.

We addtionally have intellectual Mercury in dramatic Leo making a fortuitous trine with brilliant Uranus in adventurous Aries. Uranus governs genius and intuition, so it’s possible that today will provide fertile ground for a plethora of “aha moments” to occur.

The Moon will also be in theatrical, glamorous Leo all day, favorable for parades and other “Fun Fourth” celebrations. Later tonight, she will shift into immaculate, attentive Virgo (9:16 pm EDT) to tidy everything up.

Famous people with Venus in Cancer: Meryl Streep, Clint Eastwood, Cameron Diaz, Lena Horne, Martin Sheen.

Happy Fourth of July!

Astrology June 22, 2011: Mars Square Fishy Neptune

COSMIC WATCH:

“The gift of fantasy has meant more to me than my talent for absorbing positive knowledge.” Albert Einstein, a Pisces Sun.

Fantasy Neptune, ruler of our imagination and also the urge for escape, is captaining our ‘good ship lollipop’ today in oceanic Pisces. This is because not only do we have a Neptune-ruled, dreamy Pisces Moon all day, we also have the Sun in nesting Cancer trining inspirational Neptune. And, energizer Mars in idea Gemini is squaring Neptune.

With Neptune’s illusory ray so prominent now it is much easier for us to “go adrift,” so we need to be extra mindful about holding ourselves accountable with respect to whatever it is that we want to accomplish today. Although, at the same time, it may also be wise for us not to stack too much on our plates, if we can. Especially work that calls for strict attention to details or facts and figures.

Too, we do have the Pisces Moon void of course all day, so it is best to stick with old projects instead of undertaking anything new. We also are encouraged to focus our energies on more creative venues (film, photography, painting, dance, poetry). Immersion in more spiritual or mystical pursuits also serves us well now, as Neptune is our portal to Divine forces.

Also, if something seems a little fishy to us today, chances are good that it is and we may need to arm ourselves with a healthy dose of skepticism. Neptune, on the shadow side, characteristically has a way of pulling the proverbial wool over our eyes. It is the planet that is formally linked with deception, either self-deception or deception from others (con men). It is also tied with scandal and weird incidents in general (especially the Mars square Neptune aspect). Often the kind of strange stuff that we hear about, that has us scratching our heads, wondering what in the world a person was thinking? Neptune’s classic calling card. 🙂

In the News: President Obama is reportedly planning on addressing the nation tonight from the White House to discuss his plan for the withdrawal of armed forces from Afghanistan, something which is quite fascinating from an astrological standpoint, as we have Mars, governing war and the military, exactly square to Neptune which tends to act as a dissolving agent (diminishing the troop strength in this instance). Neptune is, in fact, known as the “Great Dissolver.”

From research I have done over the years, too, Neptune’s ray often figures prominently in historic peace efforts and treaty signings, reflective perhaps of Neptune’s overriding desire for “oneness,” or for a unified world “without division.”

One more thing. Gotta’ love this “fishy” Neptunian headline in the news today: “Chinese Find 55-foot sea monster!” Reportedly, the “sea monster” washed up on a beach in Guangdong, China. It’s decaying body weighed in at 4.5 tons. Unfortunately, the decomposition was too advanced to ID the remains.

Enjoy your Wednesday! But, be careful about drinking too much of the hallucinatory, Neptunian “Kool-Aid.” Don’t want you to have a hangover. Always trying to do our best to look out for you here. 🙂

January 8, 2011 Daily Horoscope: Prayer, Levitation and Elvis Presley

Vulnerable Luna continues in, “If I keep the faith, I know I’ll be able to levitate” Pisces.

“Look closely at my toes. Very closely. I believe that, if you do, you will already see them starting to rise majestically above the ground. Wow!!! Isn’t that the coolest thing? Imagine all the new, exciting possibilities that this fab, mystic ability opens up for us! Especially for vacuuming, and reaching those hard to get at areas near the crystal chandelier on the ceiling!” Yes, the more “spiritually-minded” Pisces Moon, always a tad bit delusional, bodes well for any weekend activities centered around prayer, meditation, and levitation (with certain restrictions).

We are also highly creative and very imaginative. Good time for music, singing, songwriting, painting, poetry, dancing, film-making, etc. We may want to unwind with more quiet, peaceful activities tonight. Too, with love goddess Venus in visionary Sagittarius, holding hands in a Buddhist temple, or romantically cuddling up together on a church pew, may be perfect ways to express our undying love and affection for each other.

The late great Elvis Presley would have been 76 years old today. Happy birthday, Elvis! We know you’re still in the building somewhere. Elvis, a hard-working Capricorn, also had his Moon in sensitive, caring Pisces in the third house of communication in his horoscope. He was adeptly able to pick up on other people’s moods and feelings. Also, of course, able to communicate and connect with others in a riveting emotional manner, especially through his music. Elvis was a very compassionate person, and very generous. Other Pisces Moon trademarks.

I’ve been working on an astrology book about Elvis, off and on, for a while now. Need to get it completed. I’m a big, big Elvis fan. Especially love all his songs from the 50s, and also the late 60s. My favorite Elvis song is “Suspicious Minds,” written by Mark James. The song was released on August 26, 1969, when lucky Jupiter was conjunct brilliant Uranus in artistic Libra, an aspect of genius. Also a configuration associated with miracles. As many know, we have that same Jupiter-Uranus conjunction now in dreamy Pisces. The very day it was exact, this past week, was the day that Ted Williams, the homeless man with a golden voice, who formerly worked as a radio announcer (an Uranus-ruled occupation), was suddenly discovered. Also that same day, a ten year old girl became the youngest person in the world to discover a supernova, while looking through a telescope with her father. (Uranus also rules astronomy.) Another miraculous event! Hope something miraculous happens to each and every one of my three, faithful blog readers today.
