COSMIC WEATHER:

“Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth.” ~ John F. Kennedy

Early this Friday morning, the Sun, which signifies the ego and basic urge to be, exited conventional Capricorn for experimental Aquarius (3:30 am), potentially setting the stage for us to channel or bring forth more of our spontaneous or unscripted side – or that part of our nature that perhaps seeks to chug along and do its own thing – make its own earth-shattering discoveries, live off the grid, etc., without having to feel unduly constrained or checked by the dictates or directives of the status quo.

Aquarius in Latin means “water bearer” or “cup bearer,” and its zodiac symbol of a man pouring water from a pitcher, suggests that Aquarius is concerned with infusing the world with new meaning. A good time to maybe seek to raise our vibration.

Uranus, the modern-day ruler of Aquarius, is viewed as an engine of change. It is linked with technology, innovation, and rapid advancement. It also rules our intuition as the higher octave of Mercury.

The sign of Aquarius also represents humanity, individuality, the collective, groups of people – as well as our network of friends and acquaintances. During Aquarius season we often seek to be a part of something larger. We are also often more interested in advocating for causes that are close to our heart.

We may also strive to be more accepting of others in an impersonal way – especially of the differences between us – even though we may also be more prone now to wanting to speak our minds, especially when we perceive things to be an affront or abridgement to our personal liberties.

Aquarius is a fixed air sign, and can, consequentially, often adhere to very strong opinions or views – with natives of this sign often particularly fond of playing the role of the contrarian or devil’s advocate. The Sun will be in Aquarius until February 18th.

“People do not seem to realize that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson

*All times EST

In the News: Yesterday US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen stated in a letter to congressional leaders that the US had reached its statutory debt limit (or debt ceiling) as of Thursday, and that Congress will need to take action by early June, to prevent default on its debt. On Wednesday, as you may recall, we had the annual Sun-Pluto conjunction in Capricorn. Crisis-minded Pluto – which typically excels at sounding the alarm bell – governs, among other things, debt and taxes, while Capricorn oversees the workings or machinations of government. 

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

Today’s Astrology June 27, 2019: Sun sextiles Uranus

Cosmic Weather: 

It’s always so cool when we experience “breakthrough” moments when seemingly, out of nowhere, we get a flash of understanding or the sudden intuition or answer to a problem. Research also shows that sometimes just taking a break or walking away from an issue, for a while, is often a good way for us to clear our mind and suddenly see things in a brand new light. Inventor Thomas Edison once stated that to do much clear thinking “a person must arrange for regular periods of solitude when they can concentrate and indulge the imagination without distraction.”

With the empowering Sun sextiling change-oriented Uranus today (1:45 pm), the planet of innovation, technology, and intuition, we’re potentially in line for receiving/channeling more “lightbulb” moments now, as our intuition and imagination are hopefully stronger. This is also an excellent day to expose ourselves to anything cutting-edge, experimental, or simply out of the realm of our comfort zones.

Too, with the Sun in the home-related sign of Cancer, this may be a very neat time to experiment with changing around/redecorating/refurbishing our living quarters in creative ways, keeping in mind that our personal tastes now could also be a bit of a departure from what we normally like (Uranus in Taurus). This may also be a good time to review or update our finances/investments or to make changes to our budgets.

On another level, we may also be more interested in involving ourselves in progressive and or group causes that we care about (an especially favorable day for promoting women’s issues).

*All times EDT.

Hope you enjoy your Thursday!

Astrology February 6, 2016: Sun Sextiles Uranus, Mercury Trines Jupiter, “Monopoly” Board Game

“There are times when I am so unlike myself that I might be taken for someone else of an entirely opposite character.” – Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Movies, Black And White, Stars, White

COSMIC WEATHER:

In wake of Monday’s New Moon in “experimental” Aquarius, today is an excellent time to kind of take a “test run” of things with the Aquarian Sun forming an exact sextile to Uranus, the modern-day ruler of Aquarius. This vibrant and quickening influence potentially poises us to be more flexible or open-minded in situations, as well as inspires us to embrace the changes that we know are needed in our lives in order to hopefully have them flow more effortlessly and authentically from our true center. Albert Einstein once quipped that “the measure of intelligence is the ability to change.”

With that said, it might be a great day to hang out with people or types we normally would not associate with to broaden our outlook, especially since we also have relationship Venus squaring Uranus today as well, an aspect which can coincide with a desire for more freedom or newness in our connections. Sun-Uranus also favors involvement in group activities or humanitarian causes.

Mercury trine Jupiter additionally helps us to look at the big picture, today. It may also be important for us now to discuss topics that are more meaningful to us, or that reflect our core beliefs and values. Mercury-Jupiter is also associated with public speaking and publishing.

The “utilitarian” waning Capricorn Moon are is also very busy, today, forming six aspects, all this morning, before going void of course at 10:54 am. It will enter Aquarius at 12:59 am, Sunday morning, and will no longer be void.

*All times EST.

Astrology for July 31, 2015: A Full Moon in Aquarius

31 Friday Jul 2015

astrology july 31 2015, Full Moon in Aquarius 2015, Full Moon on July 31 2015, group causes, individuality, love, stepping outside our comfort zone, Venus moves retrograde into Leo July 31 2015

“To find out what is truly individual in ourselves, profound reflection is needed; and suddenly we realize how uncommonly difficult the discovery of individuality is.” Carl Jung

Today’s Energy:

There is a Full Moon in “avant-garde” Aquarius (6:43 am). This particular Full Moon is also termed a “Blue Moon” because it is the second Full Moon in a calendar month. Venus, the Goddess of love, also retrogrades back into “self-expressive” Leo, today, where it joins Jupiter, Mercury, and the Sun.

Full Moons provide us with more light by which to see, both symbolically and literally, with today’s Full Moon in Aquarius serving to spotlight our “individuality” – or what it is that sets us apart from the crowd. It is a wonderful time for us to cast an eye upon our special talents or gifts (Sun in Leo), and figure out how we can harness them more fully to make the unique contribution to the collective that only we can make (Moon in Aquarius). As Carl Jung notes above, excavating what is truly individual in us is often a complex pursuit that requires serious attention on our part, as well as plenty of patience and commitment. Most assuredly, however, this process is always worthwhile, especially as we begin to behold glimpses of our “unique, original mold” and are able to increasingly lay claim to it, creatively bringing it to life, in all of its glory, for whatever purpose it – we – were originally intended, by the powers that be. Too, we can always know whether we are on track with our purpose by the sense of passion that we feel inside ourselves. The more intellectually detached Aquarius energy that is highlighted now is also naturally drawn to this kind of personal observation or discovery, as it imparts a flair for analysis and experimentation.

Since the sign of Aquarius also symbolizes an individual’s immersion into a group – ideally, for the betterment of all – this Full Moon in Aquarius can also be a time when we seek out a tribe or network that is a good match for our personal values and beliefs, or that lines up with the special causes that we espouse or care so dearly about. Of course, we all know, too, that we can do much more collectively than we can on our own, which is perhaps why we have been wired to be such social creatures. So much of nature, of which we are but a small part, works together in unison to leave its mark.

Social Venus is also retrograding back into “theatrical” Leo, today, affording us a special chance to dance solo, for a while, to what makes our heart sing. With Venus retrograde, we continue to focus our attention on improving the quality of the intimate relationship that we have with ourselves, including perhaps rediscovering our values or discerning what it is that brings us the most joy or pleasure. “When a woman becomes her own best friend life is easier.” Diane von Furstenberg.

*All times EDT.

Astrology March 17, 2012: Moon in Capricorn Squares Saturn, 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). An aspect that may find us more mindful of honoring our duties and commitments.

This morning is also possibly 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 usually deemed best to finish old business.

Mid-day, however, the energy palpably shifts with Luna’s foray into futuristic Aquarius.  Suddenly, the weight of the past may feel less ponderous, and we begin to focus instead on what could be.

A Moon-Uranus sextile also (7:45 pm) potentially 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 may want to do some de-weeding in our gardens and yards. Also, an excellent time for de-cluttering. Including perhaps opening the windows and getting rid of the stale air. And don’t forget to unclog your email inbox!

Astrology February 8, 2011: “Have The Green Light” Daily Horoscope

astrology, Chiron enters Pisces February 8 2011, february 8 birthdays, group causes, leadership, Moon in Aries, Moon sextile Mars, moon sextile sun, relationships, romance, Venus conjunct Pluto

“Small deeds done are better than great deeds planned.” Peter Marshall

COSMIC WEATHER:

The Moon continues in action-packed Aries! We still have the glorious “green light” to go ahead with our scintillating plans and projects.

Too, it may be that the early bird catches the worm, as the Moon is making invigorating aspects to both pioneering Mars (7:16 am) and the power-generating Sun (9:10 am) in idealistic Aquarius early in the day.

These aspects bode well for taking a leadership position, especially within the framework of a group setting (Aquarius). Overall, we are in a more self-confident mood, as well as more competitive (Mars).

Also, love goddess Venus is inching closer to her conjunction rendezvous with passionate Pluto tomorrow (8:49 pm) in career-sign Capricorn. This short-term influence is potentially a biggie and can be a gamechanger with respect to transforming/altering our relationships and making us more aware of our emotional needs and desires.

“Sometimes it is the person closest to us who must travel the furthest distance to be our friend.” Robert Brault.

Finally, Chiron, the wounded healer, re-enters the compassionate waters of Pisces today where it will reside until 2018-2019, ideally sensitizing more of us to the needs of others, especially the downtrodden or the underdog.

Pisces focuses our attention on issues of civil rights, alternative or holistic healing methods and spirituality or mysticism. The Pisces experience revolves around removing real and or imagined boundaries.

“It is one of the most beautiful compensations of this life that no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself. Serve and thou shall be served (Pisces).”  Ralph Waldo Emerson
