Cosmic Weather:

“It’s amazing how a little tomorrow can make up for a whole lot of yesterday.” John Guare

Lots going on in the heavens today! The Mars-Jupiter trine aspect, exact early this morning (1:14 am), can allow our actions to take shape more quickly (and possibly morph into something big). It can also find us more future-oriented, more amped up about moving toward our goals. Mars is also in cerebral Gemini which can help us to intellectually detach and ponder our plans from various perspectives.

Too, Mercury in Aries is sextiling both Jupiter in Aquarius (12:00 pm) and Mars (3:09 pm), potentially adding even more breadth and scope – plus punchiness – to our communications. Our words are direct yet we also seem to be able to couch them in a way that doesn’t alienate.

Later, thinker Mercury will form a square to “Darth Vader” Pluto (5:49 pm). On the plus side, this can serve to make us very probing or investigative which can help to deepen or strengthen our perceptions; this aspect can also aid in our becoming more aware of our hidden impulses. On the shadow side, it can (obsessively) put our focus on what is broken or not working, which potentially could be a bit of a mental drain if we linger there too long. Shifting to finding solutions, though, is usually a good way to help get us centered and back on track (especially now with Mars in clever Gemini). Sometimes, too, one cool way to problem-solve is to imagine how someone you admire or look up to might go about rectifying things.

“What you condemn you continue. Focus on where you want to go rather than what you want to get away from.” Alan Cohen

Meanwhile, Waxing Luna shifts from busybody Gemini to homebody Cancer (3:25 pm). She’s also still in her Crescent Phase (with 24% illumination from the Sun). With the Moon in Cancer, there’s more of an impulse to nurture or protect.

*All times EDT

Going on today: The British Royal Family is gathering for the funeral of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, who passed away on April 9 at age 99 (b. June 10, 1921). Towards the end of the Second World War Prince Philip served in the destroyer HMS WHELP in the Pacific, and was present in Tokyo Bay for the Japanese surrender on September 2, 1945. Prince Philip and Queen Elizabeth were married for 73 years.

“When we were married I don’t think there was such a thing as a platinum anniversary, they didn’t know we would be around that long.” Queen Elizabeth

Astrologically, Jupiter is the planet associated with official royalty (real kings and queens!) – and we have the Mars-Jupiter trine exact today helping to bring royal activities to the forefront. 

“It’s better to get out before you reach the sell-by date.” Prince Philip 🙂

May you rest in peace.

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

Astrology April 11, 2020: Mercury Enters Aries

Cosmic Weather:

With the waning Moon traversing through futuristic Sagittarius, all day, and thinker Mercury also joining the Sun and Chiron in trail-blazing Aries (where it will remain until the 27th), our thoughts and emotions tend to be much more focused now on finding a way to determinedly “get on with our lives,” as both Aries and Sagittarius are direct-acting fire signs that prefer to take the lead in things and do not take too kindly to being held back by perceived or real-world restrictions or limitations.

Mercury in Aries can also be highly resourceful, energetic and passionate about making discoveries and coming up with brand new solutions to problems. On the shadow side, with Mercury here in the sign of the ram, there’s sometimes more of a tendency to be argumentative, to act too rashly or impulsively on our ideas, or in ways that are too self-centered.

Today, though, as Mercury flits into “start-me up” Aries (at 12:48 am) it is also going to be having a more serious, weighted discussion with taskmaster Saturn, in detached Aquarius (via a sextile aspect at 7:58 pm). Saturn will likely be admonishing the Winged Messenger to make sure, among other things, that he has his attractive facial mask properly attached, behind his ears, before he formally joins Mick Jagger on stage. 🙂

Actually, this Mercury-Saturn sextile is also possibly an opportunity for us to channel our own “inner Einstein” in the sense that Albert Einstein (who had a Pisces Sun) also had his brilliant Mercury in the sign of Aries and in close conjunction with Saturn in Aries; Mercury-Saturn aspects are often associated with a more disciplined mind and deep powers of concentration. Additionally, Mercury sextile Saturn allows us to effectively draw on our past experiences in decision-making. It is also an excellent influence to consult with trusted advisors or with mentors we admire or look up to.

“Any fool can know. The point is to understand.” Albert Einstein

*All times EDT.

Born On This Day: Oleg Cassini, American fashion designer (for Jackie Kennedy), born in Paris, France (d. 2006).

“You might say that I’m the Michelangelo of the dress business.” O.C.

Hope it’s a good one! Be safe.

Today’s Astrology March 30, 2019: Sun in Aries, Aquarian Moon

Cosmic Weather:

“Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to reform (or pause and reflect).” Mark Twain

There’s a nice release in the energy today in that we have the Moon, all day, in detached, futuristic Aquarius, the sign of the observer and reformer. No doubt, a welcoming counterpoint to some of the emotionalism and fogginess suggested by the lingering Mercury-Neptune conjunction in impressionable Pisces.

The waning Moon in Aquarius also harmoniously sextiles the pioneering Sun in Aries, this afternoon (5:53 pm). Adding, perhaps, to our sense of self-confidence and leadership ability, and potentially bestowing more of a feeling of inner balance.

The Aries-Aquarian energy is ideal for immersion in any type activities that make us feel, individually, that we’re powering ourselves forward (Aries) while at the same time doing something that we perceive will also possibly be beneficial or meaningful for the collective (Aquarius). We’re also more turned on now by things that are cutting-edge, innovative, wacky, maybe even shocking!

*All times EDT

On This Day in History: On March 30, 1981, President Ronald Reagan is shot and wounded in an assassination attempt by John Hinckley, Jr.; three others are also wounded.

Astrologically, in the sky that day, warrior Mars was separating (one-degree) from an exact conjunction to the Sun in initiating Aries. The Sun symbolizes authority figures or persons in power.

Famous March 30 Birthdays: Vincent Van Gogh, Eric Clapton, M.C. Hammer, Tracy Chapman, Piers Morgan, Celine Dion

Hope you enjoy your Saturday!

Astrology March 17, 2012: Moon Enters Aquarius

COSMIC WATCH:

We begin our day with perhaps a more serious orientation, as the waning Capricorn Moon makes a square to Saturn (9:00 am EDT). This aspect may find us more mindful of honoring our duties and commitments. This morning is an excellent time for wrapping up loose ends because after the Moon squares Saturn, it will be “void of course.” A period when it is best to finish old business.

Mid-day, however, the energy palpably shifts with the Moon’s foray into futuristic Aquarius.  Suddenly, the weight of the past is pressing less upon us and we begin to focus instead on what could be. A Moon-Uranus sextile also (7:45 pm EDT) helps to fuel our need for excitement and new experiences. “Be brave. Take risks. Nothing can substitute experience.” Paulo Coelho

The Moon in Aquarius additionally favors: involvement with group causes; taking a team approach; adding unique items to our décor or wardrobe. Too, with the Moon in its waning cycle, this is a time when we want to be doing de-weeding in our gardens and yards. Also, an excellent time for de-cluttering, including opening the windows and getting rid of the stale air. And, don’t forget to unclog your email inbox!

Astrology April 26, 2011: “Early Bird Catches Worm” Moon Sextile Jupiter

COSMIC WEATHER:

“A pessimist is a man who thinks all women are bad. An optimist is one who hopes they are.” Chauncey Depew 🙂

It could be the “early bird catches the worm” today with the Aquarius Moon’s early morning sextile to fortuitous Jupiter in “trailblazing” Aries (7:29 am EDT). The futuristic Moon in Aquarius is a perfect conduit for visionary Jupiter, the planet of expansion and optimism. With Moon-Jupiter we tend to be more upbeat emotionally, which may explain why we often attract more positive things to us under this influence.

Jupiter also governs our sense of humor and when aligned with the Moon, there can be more of an ability to see things from a humorous perspective, which can also be a good way to help endear other people to us. I think most of us like to be around people who can “lighten us up,” or make us laugh, don’t you?

The Moon will be in Aquarius all day again today, not really making any other major aspects, the rest of the day, after her sextile to Jupiter. Shortly after midnight tonight, she will shift into dreamy Pisces.

Wanted to also briefly mention that we are getting ready to have another “high-drama” Venus-Pluto hookup tomorrow (3:19 am EDT), which can often be a real “soap operish” type aspect in which we are tempted to go to extremes, especially in romance. Venus rules love and money. Pluto rules power and manipulation. This influence is already starting to apply so we may want to monitor ourselves today and make sure that we are not acting too pushy, accusatory, or self-serving. (We can also encounter boorish types who act this way with us.)

Also, it’s probably a good idea to hold off  issuing “Pluto” ultimatums for a few days. Venus-Pluto tends to fire up our emotions and passions.

“Love comes when manipulation stops.” Joyce Brothers

Famous Birthdays April 26th: Michael Damian (49), Carol Burnett (78). BTW, Carol has both her Moon and Sun in down-to-earth, easy to relate to Taurus, and her Sun is exactly conjunct her Venus in Taurus, endowing her with a lot of warmth to her personality and also giving her a strong personal power of attraction (Venus). Sun-Venus aspects also can denote artistic ability.

She also has Mars and Neptune conjunct in exacting Virgo which can be a phenomenal force for stoking the creative juices (Mars energizes whatever it touches and Neptune rules the imagination, also acting). Too, Carol, has her Moon trine Jupiter (sense of humor), a very similar aspect to the Moon-Jupiter sextile influence that we have in operation today, an aspect which I also happen to have exact in my chart. Of course, Carol Burnett is a legend in the comedy world. I have admired her all my life for being so talented and funny.  In my own way, I also try to be lighthearted and optimistic, and I can usually manage to find the humor in things, but I’m certainly no comedian. How about you? Can you usually see the humor in situations? Do you think others find you funny? Do you have a Moon-Jupiter linkup in your horoscope? Or perhaps Mercury-Jupiter or Sun-Jupiter (equivalent type energy)? Hopefully, too, we’ll all find something to laugh about today.

“A well-developed sense of humor is the pole that adds balance to your steps as you walk the tightrope of life.” William Arthur Ward

Enjoy your day!
