communication, daily astrology, mars sextile chiron, Mercury conjunct Jupiter, On This Day in History

Cosmic Weather:

“Libraries were full of ideas—perhaps the most dangerous and powerful of all weapons.” – Sarah J. Maas

We begin our Monday with mental Mercury conjunct expander Jupiter in Pisces (2:06 am). This aspect is supportive for most communications in general as it tends to broaden our outlook and deepen our understanding as well as raise our level of tolerance. Particularly favored now are teachings, writings, or publishings of a more comprehensive or voluminous nature. On another level, mystical or spiritual-type awakenings are also possible.

Additionally, Mars in Aquarius is sextile to Chiron in Aries today (at 4:59 pm) which can aid us in dealing with lingering or thorny issues in a more forthcoming, direct manner.

Also, not to be forgotten or ignored: Waning Luna is standing her guard in secretive, perceptive Scorpio all day!

*All times EDT

On This Day in History: On March 21, 2006, the social networking, microblogging site “Twitter” was created (although it didn’t launch until July of that year).

Astrologically, that day, communicator Mercury – retrograde in Pisces – was applying to a conjunction with breakthrough Uranus, the planet which rules technology and the internet. The pioneering Sun in Aries was also conjunct the futuristic North Node and trine to structuring Saturn in self-expressive Leo.

Twitter founder Jack Dorsey’s first-ever tweet recently sold for the equivalent of $2.9m (£2.1m) to a Malaysia-based businessman. The tweet, which said “just setting up my twttr,” was first published on March 21, 2006, and was auctioned off by Mr. Dorsey for charity.

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

Astrology February 14, 2021: Mercury Rx Conjuncts Jupiter

Aretha Franklin records Respect, big-picture thinking, daily astrology, love, Mercury conjunct Jupiter, numerology, relationships

Cosmic Weather:

“Science does a great job at reducing variables until they are small enough to be understood, but we aren’t doing a great job at reassembling the picture once it has been broken down into a thousand pieces.” – Katy Bowman

Mercury Rx conjuncts Jupiter in Aquarius (4:40 pm). There’s more of a flair or capacity for big-picture thinking, generating innovative ideas, or stretching our perspectives now (even if some things might need to be revised later). Mercury/Jupiter typically represents the “glass is half full” mindset, which can actually help to shift things around for us in a positive way by harnessing the brain’s power of expectation.

The Waxing Moon also rockets into “start-me-up” Aries (10:54 am). We are naturally primed now for new beginnings and endeavors that require self-assertion or taking personal initiative.

Numerologically, it’s a “5” and “3” day, suggesting there’s a plethora of curiosity and creativity circulating around. Also, an element of playfulness.

*All times EST

On This Day in History: On February 14, 1967, Aretha Franklin recorded “Respect” (Billboard Song of the Year 1967).

“Respect” is a song originally released by American singer-songwriter Otis Redding in 1965. The song became a signature hit for Aretha Franklin in 1967. The music in the two versions is significantly different. Redding’s version is a plea from a desperate man, who will give his woman anything she wants. He won’t care if she does him wrong, as long as he gets his due respect when he brings money home. However, Franklin’s version is a declaration from a strong, confident woman, who knows that she has everything her man wants. She never does him wrong, and demands his “respect”. Franklin’s version adds the “R-E-S-P-E-C-T” chorus and the backup singers’ refrain of “Sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me…”. Aretha Franklin’s interpretation was a landmark for the feminist movement and is often considered one of the best songs of the R&B era. (Wikipedia)

Astrologically, when Franklin recorded “Respect” on 2/14/67, romantic Venus, in dreamy Pisces, was exactly opposing transformational Pluto in corrective Virgo. Venus-Pluto oppositions can often intensify our feelings and emotions in our relationships as well as spotlight any imbalances of power within this realm.  We may also feel a real need to “clear the air,” at this time, in a bid to get our love life back on track.

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

Astrology January 2, 2020: First Quarter Moon, Mercury Conjunct Jupiter

abundance, big ideas, daily astrology, Mercury conjunct Jupiter, Moon in Aries, new beginnings, Tarot

Cosmic Weather:

Unlike yesterday, the first day of the new year, when the Moon was still nestled in reflective Pisces (for most of the day), we’re finally presumably ready now to pivot full-speed ahead into 2020 with the waxing Moon deposited in “start-me-up” Aries, all day, the very first sign of the zodiac and a Moon sign that is notorious for acting with a heightened sense of urgency. The Moon in Mars-ruled Aries characteristically tends to animate and quicken our emotional expression.

Luna will also be reaching her First Quarter Phase, late tonight (11:45 pm), which can also motivate us to get going on the intentions that we may have nobly set during the Solar Eclipse in Capricorn, last week. Often, too, during a First Quarter Moon, we’re naturally feeling a bit of inner angst as we see some of the puzzle pieces (our intentions) start to fall into place, but we’re still not quite sure what the end result might be. Kind of like we’re peeking into the oven window now, checking to see whether or not the cake is rising, all the time wondering: Did we add enough flour? Put in enough eggs? Did we even remember to turn on the frickin’ oven before we plopped it in? 🙂

With the instinctual Moon in pioneering Aries also squaring the power-brokering Sun in more traditionally-minded Capricorn we’re also possibly weighing whether or not we should just play it safe and toe-the-company-line now or whether we may need, instead, to bust out and play by our own impressive rule book, which we’re likely making up moment-by-manic moment.

Fortunately, intellectual Mercury is also conjunct expansive Jupiter in earthy Capricorn today (11:42 am), which should help to supply all of us with a bevy of big, yet solid ideas on what to do next with regard to our fabulous, exciting lives in this brand spanking new decade. Optimistic Jupiter is the planet of vision and while he, yes, does love to bloviate, and can exaggerate, he can also help us to see the bigger picture as well as inspire us to go for it. Too, Saturn-ruled Capricorn energy is very structuring, very foundational, very purposeful in nature so, actually, this Mercury-Jupiter conjunction in Capricorn is perfect for us now, at the start of the year, because we’re less inclined to be fooling or deluding ourselves with, essentially, pie-in-the-sky ideas. Rather, we’re potentially channeling really powerful, usable “heady stuff” from the muses now that can duly advance us along on our own special life path, with an added Jupiterian spring in our step, thrown in for good measure.

In general, Mercury conjunct Jupiter is excellent for such things as publishing, writing, promotions, conducting interviews, crafting or giving speeches, business planning, announcing business mergers, enrolling in new classes, and putting on or developing motivational seminars. It’s also often an aspect when we may hear “good news,” or we’re at least able to put a positive spin on whatever may come down the pike.

Too, since it’s the start of a new decade, I thought I would also put an extra “Mercury-Jupiter” flourish on this, my very first blog of the year. I have intuitively drawn a Tarot Card for “the energy of the day” and it is the Ten of Pentacles, which I’m ecstatic about because it’s not only one of my favorite cards, but it’s also normally regarded as a celebratory card, as well as card of success and abundance, suggesting, among other things, that we’re more able to enjoy or fully partake in the realm of earthly pleasures (Pentacles) now while also being able to more fully express or showcase who we really are (the culmination of the number ten). It’s like we’ve done the work, paid the dues, and now we’re ready for the bestowing upon us of our perceived just rewards.

Anyway, Happy New Year! I hope it’s a good one for you!

*All times EST.

Astrology April 11, 2011: Mars Square Pluto, Mercury Conjunct Jupiter

COSMIC WEATHER:

“Life’s challenges are not suppose to paralyze you, they’re suppose to help you discover who you are.” Bernice Johnson Reagon

Mixed bag of nuts today. We have the potent “Mars square Pluto” aspect exact (4:36 pm EDT). This influence has been applying for the last several days. Mars, ruler of our self-assertion and drive, can passionately empower us to take on formidable challenges, when aligned with intense, controlling Pluto. Mars-Pluto is perennially linked with wanting to wield power and influence in the world. (Oprah Winfrey has this aspect exact in her personal horoscope.) We need to make sure, however, that we don’t overtax ourselves or surpass our limits with this aspect. Too, we would be very wise to avoid power struggles, shoving matches, taunting behavior, etc. On the shadow side, Mars-Pluto can awaken and unleash our “inner bully.”

Mars-Pluto can also be “very transforming” energy, with Pluto ruling regeneration. Again, as I mentioned the other day in my blog on Pluto stationing retrograde, this is an excellent time to “wipe the slate clean” and  to purge or eliminate what isn’t working in our lives.

Retrograde Mercury, ruler of our thoughts, is also back into an exact conjunction with “optimistic” Jupiter (11:59 pm EDT), ruler of philosophy and our higher beliefs and vision, academia, long-distance travel. On the plus side, the Mercury-Jupiter influence can make us more enthusiastic and upbeat, more high-minded in our thinking (a nice antidote for the Mars-Pluto “bully” mentality). Mercury-Jupiter is also an excellent time for writing.

The shadow side of this same aspect is we can become too boastful or arrogant (Jupiter). Too, with the Mars-Pluto aspect as a backdrop, this is probably not a good time to get into arguments over philosophical (Jupiter) differences, as they could very well escalate. Also, if we have any public presentations or speeches (Mercury) to make, we will want to make sure that we have “all the facts” straight ahead of time (Mercury-Jupiter tends to exaggerate), in case we later get “called on the carpet” (stickler Pluto). However, if we do diligently cover our bases, we could be very compelling and persuasive as a speaker (or writer) now, especially if we sprinkle in some of the famous “Jupiterian” humor.

BTW, do you think you have a good sense of humor? May want to check out the positioning of Jupiter in your chart and see how it’s linked up to the personal planets (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus or Mars; or the Ascendant; or 3rd or 9th houses) for further astrological insight and confirmation. We mentioned Oprah Winfrey earlier, she also has her Mercury (communication) trine Jupiter in her horoscope, so she has no problem seeing humor in things. Too, that endows her with natural ability to make people laugh. (Mercury-Jupiter is also the hallmark of a teacher or preacher.) Comedian David Letterman (who has a birthday tomorrow) also has his Mercury exactly trine his natal Jupiter. David is also a writer and that is excellent for that outlet. Funny man, and also writer, Woody Allen, has his Sun conjunct Jupiter, a similar influence-type influence, as does James Garner, who I have always regarded as very funny.)

“A sense of humor… is needed armor. Joy in one’s heart and some laughter on one’s lips is a sign that the person down deep has a pretty good grasp of life.” Hugh Sidey

Famous Birthdays April 11: Ethel Kennedy (83), Joel Grey (79)

In the News: With the potent “game-changing” Mars-Pluto aspect exact today, fascinatingly, one of the news headlines this morning is about President Obama’s big “press conference” that is slated for this Wednesday. Obama will be unveiling his package of proposed spending cuts for the future, including proposed cuts to Medicare and Medicaid, and changes to Social Security, in a bid to tackle this nation’s deficit crisis (Pluto rules debt). Higher taxes (ruled by Pluto) are also reportedly going to be proposed for the wealthy. (Wall Street Journal)

In announcing the details of his press conference, President Obama is also effectively “transforming” his image (the “reforming” Mars-Pluto energy) to a certain extent, by letting it be known that he is planning on shifting his policies around. Sometimes, too, with Mars-Pluto, we also suffer a “fierce backlash.” Surely there will be factions (the far left? the elderly?) who will not be pleased with his proposals.

Astrology March 15, 2011: “Keep Hope Alive” Mercury conjunct Jupiter

COSMIC WEATHER:

“In all things, it is better to hope than despair.” Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Of course, with so much sadness and tragedy going on in the world around us now, it is much harder for many of us to feel very hopeful. Too, our thoughts and prayers go out to the people of Japan. They have already gone through so much.

Ironically, we have mental Mercury, ruler of our thoughts, exactly aligned with optimistic, philosophical Jupiter (9:27 pm EDT) today. Mercury conjunct Jupiter is all about “keeping hope alive” and imagining wondrous possibilities, even when things seems bleak. With expansive Jupiter, we naturally tend to focus on the “bigger picture.” We attempt to connect all the dots.

The Moon also shifts from sensitive Cancer to self-expressive Leo (3:34 pm EDT), forming a powerful trine to electrifying change-agent Uranus in Aries (3:56 pm EST). Moon-Uranus could elevate our emotions and also our self-esteem (Aries). Maybe it will also bring about some positive, sudden breakthroughs (Uranus) or even miracles for those in need.

“Those who wish to sing, always finds a song.” Proverb quote.
