COSMIC WATCH:

The Moon’s entrance into chatty Gemini (4:06 am EDT) facilitates communication, fosters a climate of learning, and enhances our natural curiosity about our environment. Relationship Venus also forms an exact square to insightful, intense Pluto (9:05 pm EDT), the ruler of our subconscious, which may help to shed light on more of the complex issues of our relationships. An especially good day to glean an awareness of the deeper motivations that are driving our desires and passions.

Self-assertive Mars also enters proud, dramatic, Leo the Lion (9:51 pm EDT), which should be a boost to our self-confidence, ego and creativity. This is a very entertaining placement for Mars and can help to make us more colorful and charismatic. Mars stays in Leo until November 11. Some famous people with Mars in Leo: George Clooney, Cher, Jennifer Lopez.

“I’ve always taken risks, and never worried what the world might really think of me.” Cher

Enjoy your Sunday!

Astrology July 13, 2011: Venus Squares “Distant” Saturn

COSMIC WATCH:

“Whenever you’re in conflict with someone, there is one factor that can make a difference between damaging your relationship and deepening it. That factor is attitude.” William James

Little Miss Venus, the “loving glue” that binds us together, squares “withholding” Saturn in partnership Libra from the ultra-sensitive sign of Cancer. Venus-Saturn tends to elevate the fear and vulnerability factors in our relationships, with Saturn encouraging us to “wall ourselves off.” So it could be that it may be a bit harder for us to “stick together” or “to connect” now, unless we consciously choose to adopt a more cooperative or caring spirit that enables us to override  our more fluctuating moods or fragile sensitivities.

Too, with Saturn presiding over our responsibilities and sense of duty, Venus-Saturn can sometimes have us feeling that we are cast in a “ball and chain” role with no way out. Of course, this is not true. We always have choices available to us. With that said, we may still want to consider putting off that first, tender date with George Clooney, for another time, when the cosmic terrain is easier to navigate.

The Moon is also shifting into Saturn-ruled Capricorn this morning (10:14 am EDT), amplifying our desires to achieve our worldly ambitions. Also setting the stage for the potent Full Moon in Capricorn on Friday.

“Ambition is a dream with a V8 engine.” Elvis Presley

Enjoy your Wednesday!

Astrology June 23, 2011: Moon in Pioneering Aries

COSMIC WATCH

“Action conquers fear.” Peter Nivio Zarlenga

The Moon’s ingress into pioneering Aries (4:24 am EDT) stokes our desire for new adventures. The Moon’s conjunction with change-agent Uranus (1:24 pm EDT) also acts to propel us into the future and potentially provides us with more of a platform to “do our own thing,” which the Aries Moon is already very receptive to doing. Rebel Uranus is associated with individuality and non-conformity. It encourages us not to render cookie-cutter responses, so this alignment can be very refreshing and rejuvenating for us, if we are but willing to be our true, authentic selves.

Later on, possible resistance from others to our plans, in the guise of the Moon’s square to controlling Pluto (5:08 pm EDT), in authoritative Capricorn, may have us wanting to retreat back to our Cancerian Sun “crab shells.” This may, indeed, be a very good time to go inside ourselves and examine our behavior and see if there is maybe something that we can either fix or purge (Pluto) that will help us to reunite more with our own sense of power, so we will feel less threatened or bothered by things external to us in the future.

Moon-Pluto can make us stronger by eliminating what is weaker or dead weight within us. Pluto governs the subconscious, and Pluto is always very ready to confer upon us deep insight, if we are willing to work with it. Moon-Pluto can be a very effective cathartic or healing agent. This configuration is also linked with actual surgery.

What would you like to reform or change about yourself? Anything?

Celebrity News:  Actor George Clooney and girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis have reportedly split up after a two-year courtship. George (born 5/6/61) has transiting Saturn in Libra in his 7th house of partnerships now opposing his “love goddess” Venus in Aries in his first house of new beginnings.

This is, unfortunately, a textbook divorce or separation aspect. This is partly because Venus-Saturn often tends to make us feel “cut off” from others (Saturn inhibits our expression). Then, of course, when we get to feeling this way, we often end up erecting even more walls around us, which is not favorable or conducive for romance.

Too, this Venus-Saturn aspect can also simply indicate, that we have outgrown a relationship and that it is, indeed, time to move on, as Saturn does equate with natural endings and Venus rules relationships. Sometimes, too, with this influence, our ambitions and goals for ourselves, which are also denoted by Saturn, come in conflict with our relationship needs and we have no choice but to make certain adjustments in our lives. Either certain goals and ambitions go, or the relationships go, etc. Too, I am only talking in a general sense here about this aspect. I have no idea what, in reality, led to George’s breakup.

With that said, George’s horoscope also suggests that he tends to be a very private and emotionally guarded person, to begin with, as he has his Moon, ruling his feelings and women, tightly conjunct his Saturn in Capricorn, the sign that Saturn rules. In general, this more complex configuration makes it easier for a person to live by themselves (bachelor), as they naturally don’t feel so compelled to share their innermost feelings with others. A large part of why we have romantic relationships is to share what we are feeling inside.

Plus, being a famous actor, he does have ample opportunity to vent his feelings on a world stage, vicariously playing different roles, and that may be enough emoting for him. Too, being so famous, he also probably needs to be a little defensive, at times, with others, to curb exploitation, gossip, etc. At any rate, I would think that Moon conjunct Saturn would despise living a fish bowl type of existence, and would vie for as much privacy as possible. George does have his assertive Mars in colorful, theatrical Leo, though, too, so he does know how to confidently handle himself and his affairs, and people will like him regardless. That planetary influence helps to make him very charismatic, especially with Mars in his fifth house of self-expression.

George’s Venus in flirtatious, “conquest-oriented” Aries, also suggests that he requires plenty of freedom in romance, and that he also ideally does best with a partner who is very independent like himself. I also, unfortunately, don’t have Elisabetta’s birth chart to see what she has going on at the moment. Anyway, I wish both of them well. Breakups are never any fun.

Enjoy your Thursday! Too, don’t be afraid to “do your own thing!” Remember, we are receiving that high-voltage prompting from Moon-Uranus today. We may even want to put on the hippie beads and bell bottoms. 🙂

Astrology May 16, 2011: Neptune Sextiles Mercury and Venus

COSMIC WEATHER:

“We must combine the toughness of the serpent with the softness of the dove, a tough mind and a tender heart.” Martin Luther King, Jr.

The Moon continues her passage through “tough cookie” Scorpio. However, it’s all simply a charade. An orchestrated ruse. This is because, inside of us, our tender hearts are melting like butter today. Not only do we have Mercury (thoughts) and Venus (love) exactly conjunct in docile Taurus, making us charming and lovable, we also have hypnotic Neptune, signifier of illusion, dreamily sextiling both of them from aquatic (fishy) Pisces.

Neptune-Mercury allows us to inspire and weave magic with our words. While Neptune-Venus snares us in with seductive, romantic fantasies. It is nothing short of miraculous how we are able to captivate and put others under our spell now. Even George Clooney is swimming around us in a glass half full. “Be right with you, George. No need to abscond with a shallow mermaid. We’re worth waiting for, George. You see, we have depth. Plenty of depth. And character.” 🙂

Seriously, the cosmic energy around us today is super cool for letting our imagination run wild. We need to tap into our personal creativity now and use it as a major form of our self-expression.  We are also capable of much more compassion and idealism now, if we but open our hearts and reach out to others.

Astrology April 18, 2011: “Going The Distance” Mars Opposite Saturn

18 Monday Apr 2011

COSMIC WEATHER:

“Endurance is one of the most difficult disciplines, but it is to the one who endures that the final victory comes.” Buddha

Enterprising Mars in initiating Aries forms an exact opposition to restrictive Saturn in relationship Libra (12:03 pm EDT). Our varied efforts to spearhead things (Mars) may encounter stiff resistance or opposition from others (Saturn). “Mars-Saturn” energy is often portrayed as trying to drive a car (Mars) with the brakes on (Saturn). Often with this aspect we come to an awareness of our limitations or weaknesses, and accordingly, we often end up having to patiently revise our strategies, or run the risk of defeat if we don’t.

With Mars-Saturn, we often need to work harder, or at least smarter, and most likely in a very disciplined and controlled manner (Saturn). Too, if we do, and are able to endure and withstand any trials or hurdles that are put in our path, we may be rewarded with a golden victory.

The very last time that we had this identical aspect, Mars in Aries opposite Saturn in Libra, was back in late March of 1981. Interestingly, on March 29, 1981, the “London Marathon” debuted with 7500 runners. Of course, most of us have all heard about how hard marathon runners have to train. This arduous training process is a perfect template for understanding the workings of this “Mars-Saturn” type energy. It’s not an aspect for wimps or quitters. Or for those hoping to coast by on their coattails.  Mars-Saturn characteristically demands our best efforts.

The “London Marathon” is now reportedly one of the biggest running events in the world and is one of the five top world marathons that make up the World Marathon Majors. Too, this Mars-Saturn aspect is indelibly stamped in the horoscope of this annual event. (Birthchart horoscopes can be done for events, not just people.) Also, the day the London Marathon debuted, the empowering Sun was exactly conjunct energy planet Mars in Aries (Aries rules sports) for extra punch.

Wanted to throw in here, too, that actor George Clooney was  born with his Mars in entertainment Leo (0 degrees) exactly opposite his Saturn in ambitious Capricorn (his Saturn is at 30 degrees).  I also see George as a “marathon man” in many ways, don’t you? Seemingly extremely driven, probably doesn’t back down till he gets what he wants (he’s also a plodding Taurus). Too, what woman would not want to gladly “go the distance” with George, regardless of the hurdles? 🙂

Besides the Mars-Saturn opposition today, we also have the Moon entering passionate Scorpio (2:20 am EDT) intensifying our emotions and desires. The Moon also makes a potent sextile to transforming Pluto in Capricorn (2:14 pm EDT), Scorpio’s ruler. A good time for instituting “makeover projects,” especially on the career front (Capricorn).

NEWS UPDATE:  Here I am blogging about the very first London Marathon and, would you believe, that on this very day, with the Mars-Saturn opposition once again exact, Kenya’s Geoffrey Mutai ran the fastest marathon ever, finishing the Boston Marathon in 2 hours, 3 minutes, 2 seconds!!! How cool is that? I love the synchronicity!!!

Astrology April 14, 2011: “Fixer-Upper” Type Energy, Virgo Moon Trine Pluto

COSMIC WEATHER:

“If everybody contemplates the infinite instead of fixing the drains, many of us will die of cholera.” John Rich

Nothing like a “corrective, fastidious” Virgo Moon for dutifully reminding us of the undeniable fact that the world around us is in a colossal state of disrepair and chaos and must somehow be brought under immediate control, starting with the stack of dirty dishes in the sink! 🙂

Of course, this painful “Virgo drill” is anathema to the impetuous Aries energy that is also maniacally impinging upon our tender consciousness now, imploring us to “leave the dirty dishes” for another day, and to also forgo the vile vacuuming for the glorious, once-in-a-lifetime chance to roam the wild prairie with gorgeous hunk, George Clooney, who also, BTW, has “love planet” Venus in Aries, which should also account for something here.

The “tidy” Virgo Moon will additionally be making a sweeping trine to “repairing” Pluto (2:57 pm EDT). So, today, has “fixer-upper” written all over it. Got anything broken that you need repaired? Today would be a good time to tackle that project.

On another level, Moon-Pluto is also good for locating “missing objects.” A couple weeks ago, remember that cobra snake that got loose from the Bronx Zoo in NYC (it has since been named “Mia”)? Mia was found when the Moon was exactly sextile Pluto. Pluto rules snakes, it is also linked with detective work. Maybe we should try to look, once more, for that winning lotto ticket that we inadvertently threw out, a while back. Too, Pluto does denote “billionaires” and “mega-money.” 🙂

Breaking News Update (Moon-Pluto at work again in “real-life” today): With the “fixer-upper” Virgo Moon in exact trine to Pluto in “governmental” Capricorn (Pluto rules debt and taxes), the U.S. House, this afternoon, finally passed legislation to finance (Pluto) the federal government for the remainder of the fiscal year. We’re also talking “high-dollar” Plutonian financing in the billions of dollars! Way to go Moon-Pluto! And people say astrology doesn’t work. 🙂 NYTimes.com

Astrology April 12, 2011: “Taking Center-Stage” The Leo Moon

COSMIC WEATHER:

“Broad paths are open to every endeavor, and a sympathetic recognition is assured to everyone who consecrates his art to the divine services of a conviction of consciousness.” Franz Liszt

It’s that time of the month again, with the Moon stationed in glamorous, “Hollywood Hills” Leo, when we must dutifully ascend the theater stairwell and take our rightful place, center-stage, beside leading man, George Clooney.  It’s, of course, a thankless job, but hey, somebody has to do it! 🙂

Yes, the Moon in “entertainment” Leo paves the way for us to be a “shining star” today in our own real-life dramas. The colorful Leo Moon is naturally upbeat and creative, authoritative, and self-confident, and generally imbues us with more of a desire to “make a big splash” and “receive recognition” for the things that we do.

Too, the Moon’s winning trine to energizer Mars in “pioneering” Aries (1:54 pm EDT) helps to fill us with loads of passion and daring. This aspect is also favorable for sports and exercise.

Later, the Moon’s sextile to “stabilizing” Saturn in partnership Libra may help to anchor our relationships (10:28 pm EDT), and can inspire us to make commitments (Saturn). Saturn governs the “urge for security.”

Famous Birthdays April 12: Herbie Hancock (71), David Letterman (64)

In The News: Japan’s nuclear safety agency raised the severity level of the crisis at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant today to a 7 – the highest level on an international scale, bringing the crisis on par with the 1986 Chernobyl disaster. Astrologically, we still have Mars involved in a tight square to Pluto (this influence was exact late yesterday). Pluto rules radiation and nuclear power. (Also, on the shadow side, Pluto can denote crisis situations and turning points.)

Mars, of course, tends to act as a catalyst for events, especially in an “initiating” sign like Aries which it rules. (The “square” aspect also tends to “force matters.”) Again, our thoughts and prayers are with the people of Japan. Such a tragedy.

(Barracuda)

MARS IN PISCES

“How much has to be explored and discarded before reaching the naked flesh of feeling?” Claude Debussy

On February 22nd, Mars, symbolizing the aggressive urge, dives into emotional Pisces (8:06 pm EST), where it will, no doubt, try to make a big splash over the next six weeks. It is characteristically the nature of Mars to “stir things up,” as he represents our physical energy and ignites our passions, although when he is submerged underwater in Pisces, much of his “fire” is put out.

But, lest we get fooled by warrior Mars here, he can still be a barracuda! But, generally, he prefers to avoid direct confrontation in Pisces, if at all possible. Mars in Pisces also tends more toward passive aggressive behavior, or misplaced aggression.

However, with all that said, this time around, we still do have a lot of fiery “martian” energy at our disposal now, because expansive Jupiter is deposited in potent Mars-ruled Aries, actually in mutual reception with Mars, as Jupiter co-rules Pisces. Too, Jupiter is, and has been for the last few weeks, in a powerful square to obsessive Pluto (exact on Friday) which can make us more bent on pursuing unrestricted, “new beginnings” (Aries) with a heated fervor.

Too, Aries is associated with war and revolution, and we have witnessed all the unrest, demonstrations, and standoffs in the world the past few weeks. Mars has also been boldly empowering group expression in “power to the people” Aquarius. Also, rebellious Uranus is poised to enter Aries on March 11th for a seven-year stay, so the political landscape could very well continue to change in many nations during this time period. Freedom-loving Uranus in Aries will likely coincide with continued uprisings by individuals on a pioneering, self-developing quest to “do their own thing” (Uranus). Aries is more of a fearless sign, also it’s very impulsive and often acts way too hasty without giving enough thought to the consequences of its actions.

It is interesting, too, that with the opportunistic Jupiter square tyrannical Pluto, almost exact to the dot now, Libya’s long-time despotic ruler (Pluto), Muammar Qaddafi, may finally be ousted in wake of the mass revolt. Sadly, we have also seen many tragic massacres in Libya the last few days as the planets have moved into Pisces, which is more associated with persecution.

Too, it is wise to always note whenever Mars changes zodiacal signs. It is at those times when Mars enters a new sign that we often collectively see very notable or pivotal things occurring with respect to “Mars-ruled” matters: aggression, war, adventurous new beginnings, discoveries or breakthroughs.  Then, of course, we need to add the elements or things associated with the sign that Mars is going through.

Pisces, for example, rules the sea and oil. Oil is spiking upwards due to the unrest in the Middle East. We may all want to keep a very close eye on oil with volatile Mars moving into Pisces. When Chiron entered Pisces last year was the very day we had the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Mars will also be exactly conjunct Chiron on February 24th (the energy is already applying), so this could be a critical time period for the planet.  BTW, it was reported yesterday that BP reached a 7.2 billion dollar oil and gas deal with India on Monday.

Too, as I am writing this, a seemingly big news story is unfolding about the Suez Canal. Reportedly Iranian Naval Vessels have entered the canal. Warrior Mars in Pisces could, unfortunately, symbolize hostile conditions at sea, or around water.

News Update: It was also reported today that the four Americans taken hostage by Somali pirates a few days ago off East Africa were shot and killed today by their captors. (The Americans were first taken hostage with the Mercury-Mars-Neptune triple conjunction a few days ago.)

On a more uplifting note, we also have the Academy Awards on Sunday and Pisces rules films and acting.

Mars in Pisces is indeed a very imaginative placement for the “red planet,” if not the most creative place for it. Mars here often has a deep passion and talent for art, music, dancing, acting, film, photography. For example, Elton John, an Aries, who we mentioned the other day as someone with Mercury in Pisces, also has his Mars in Pisces.

Too, there is usually a greater desire for retreat and seclusion from the world with Mars in Pisces, as a way of recharging our batteries. Mars in retiring Pisces also normally denotes more of an affinity for mystical or spiritual pursuits, and can also give a gift for healing. Many people in the healing field have a notable presence of Pisces planets (or a strong Neptune) in their horoscopes.

Romantically, Mars in Pisces tends to be fantasy-driven and very sensual, so we will definitely want to clear our calendars to make sure that we do have plenty of time for steamy, nocturnal pastimes. 🙂

The shadow side of Mars in Pisces:  There can be indecisiveness, disillusionment, extremism (especially religious fanaticism). Too much of an immersion into fantasy or idealism. Also, Pisces is linked with drug and alcohol abuse. Of course, there is also more opportunity for deception, or simply more chance for weird, nebulous things to happen (due to Mars being in Neptune’s “spacey” home turf). Pisces also rules private sects and cults. Also, there may be more of a willingness to voluntarily play the “victim” or “martyr” role.

Too, with Pisces being more of a “selfless” or “ego-denying” sign, we ideally progress now by doing more for others than for ourselves, especially more for persons who are downtrodden, disabled, or down on their luck for whatever reason. Mars in Pisces can be very compassionate and charitable. We also have the Sun, Mercury, Uranus, and Chiron in Pisces now, so we have a notable Pisces vibration going on. Invisible energy that is hopefully imploring us to remember to kindly give each other a helping hand, or a comforting shoulder to cry on. The Pisces energy perennially sensitizes us to other people’s pain and struggle. We become more acutely aware of the fragility of life and the fleetingness, or even desperateness, of the human condition.

“Compassion is not religious business, it is human business, it is not luxury, it is essential for our own peace and mental stability, it is essential for human survival.” Dalai Lama

“Sweet baby” James is a Pisces. He’s a perfect template for all of the more noble, magical qualities of the sign, isn’t he? Love him.

“I love thee to the depth and breadth and height my soul can reach.” Elizabeth Barrett Browning.

COSMIC WEATHER:

This Valentine’s Day finds us navigating a potentially more complex emotional terrain with the nurturing Moon entering feeling-oriented Cancer (12:50 am EST) and forming a wide array of “roller coaster” aspects to Jupiter, Pluto, Mars, the Sun, and Venus.

Not to worry, though. Because on the flip side of this cosmic coin, mental Mercury, governing communication, is forming an exact harmonious trine to “no frills” Saturn who wisely advises us to keep our Cupid’s messages for each other short and to the point. (With Mercury-Saturn, less is always more.) Accordingly, “Need you now” may be all we really need to say today to be a big hit with our sweetie. Along with, of course, “I love you.”

“Love is an act of endless forgiveness, a tender look which becomes a habit.” Peter Ustinov

“Love is, above all, the gift of oneself.” Jean Anouilh

(Happy that Lady Antebellum‘s “Need You Now” won both “record of the year” and “song of the year” at the Grammy Awards last night. A masterpiece of a song, don’t you think? Of course, I also got my Valentine’s gift a day early last night seeing my lifelong love, Mick Jagger, perform on the Grammy stage for the very first time. Wish Keith Richards had been with him, though. Too, very nice seeing Barbra Streisand and Bob Dylan perform.)

Famous Birthdays February 14th: Mike Bloomberg (69), Florence Henderson (77), Hugh Downs (90)

Also, a very warm, heartfelt Valentine’s Day greeting to each one of my five, faithful blog readers here. Hope it’s a good one for all of you, with lots of chocolate and kisses. Reckon, too, that I should leave a light on for my other sweetheart, George Clooney? Just in case? Keep hope alive?

“Need you now, George.”

“The only failure is not to try.” George Clooney. 🙂

Patricia’s Astrology February 2, 2011: “Take Initiative” Daily Horoscope

“What the caterpillar calls the end, the rest of the world calls a butterfly.” Lao Tsu

COSMIC WEATHER:

A much ballyhooed “New Moon in Aquarius” is taking place later today (9:31 pm EST). New Moons herald in new beginnings (see my earlier blog post on this lunation for all the dazzling details).

The Sun and Moon are conjoined “male energizer bunny” Mars in “reinvent yourself” Aquarius and also trine to “stabilizer” Saturn in “olive branch” Libra. What this cryptically means for all of us is that it is an excellent time to “take initiative” and to also be “innovative.” We will be rewarded accordingly, if we also are wise enough to incorporate some strategic planning into the equation and also seek out experienced counsel for close collaboration (Saturn in Libra).

This is a very cool time to showcase and cultivate our uniqueness and demonstrate to the world what sets us apart from the pack. Especially for the areas of life (the house) that this New Moon falls in, in our personal horoscope. At the same time, we may also find immersion in group activities (Aquarius) another liberating source of self-expression. Mentally we are capable of brilliance with Mercury sextile original thinker Uranus. Our intuition is on overdrive now and on target, so we need to pay close attention to it.

Also connection queen Venus is square freedom-loving Uranus, making our love life perhaps unpredictable, but potentially more exciting. We’re more attracted to wacky, oddball types now, so we need to keep this in mind before we run off and elope with the sexy lion tamer at the circus.

Too, romantic fantasies also reign supreme as Venus is forming a sextile to “all of our personal woes would dramatically recede, if we could only date George Clooney” Neptune, our savior. Venus-Neptune can signify hot, passionate romance with Hollywood stars (Neptune rules actors), and, of course, we are obligingly taking that translation very literally here. 🙂
