Cosmic Weather:

“And now we welcome the new year, full of things that have never been” – Rainer Maria Rilke

On this very first day of 2026, we are treated to mental Mercury, in scholarly Sagittarius, exactly square to transcendent Neptune in Pisces (8:33 am) – suggesting an honorable, noble search for deeper meaning now could potentially get hijacked by a few tempting, time-consuming rabbit holes savagely dotting our, otherwise, inspired path. 🙂

Probably also not very helpful that we have the Waxing Moon deposited in ever curious, scattering Gemini, which Mercury rules!

Astrologically, Mercury-Neptune pairings are often described, on the shadow side, as foggier periods cerebrally, when we may be muddling through intimidating gaps of information/misinformation. Even outright deception or lies!

On a cheerier, more redemptive note, however, Mercury-Neptune aspects are also equated with perceived surges in imagination, creativity, sensitivity and compassion. Our nocturnal dreams may also be especially vivid now.

Later in the day, the winged messenger Mercury exits outgoing Sagittarius to take up a three-week occupancy in the more worldly-ambitious, practical, subdued sign of Capricorn (4:11 pm), joining the Sun, Venus, and Mars already stationed there.

This placement of Mercury, in persevering Capricorn, ideally helps us to make our dreams and goals a reality by fostering a more step-by-step approach in relation to our thoughts and ideas. It is also associated with a more guarded/circumspect communication style. Some cynicism/crustiness may also be thrown into the mix, for good measure!

“Every ounce of my cynicism is supported by historical precedent.” – Glen Cook, Shadow Games

*All times EST

On This Day in History: On January 1,1818, Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein” or, “The Modern Prometheus,” is published anonymously by the small London publishing house of Lackington, Hughes, Harding, Mavor, & Jones.

One of the best-known works of English literature, Shelley was only eighteen years old when she began writing the Gothic novel, completing it at age 20.

Astrologically on the publication date, there was a stellium of planets (Uranus, Venus, Neptune, and Jupiter) conjunct in master story-teller Sagittarius, the sign which also rules publishing. Transformational Pluto in Pisces was additionally squaring this lineup; Pluto is associated with, among other things, darker themes and issues of power or control.

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

Astrology December 27, 2023: Sun Trines Jupiter Rx

Cosmic Weather:

“The explanation requiring the fewest assumptions is most likely to be correct.” – William of Ockham

While assumptions often serve as shortcuts for our brains, with mental Mercury Rx squaring psychedelic Neptune in Pisces today (exact at 2:43 am) we may do best just sticking with the facts now, especially regarding decision-making – unless we perhaps have extra time on our hands to explore a plethora of rabbit holes. It is thought (or assumed, for that matter!) that Neptune’s activated ray tends to obscure issues or fogs things over, making it harder to see the true nature of what is before us. It is commonly associated with wishful or fanciful thinking.

Later this evening, Mercury Rx also conjuncts action-planet Mars in philosophical Sagittarius (exact at 7:31 pm), potentially amping up our mental energy and maybe setting the stage for rounds of lively discussions or conversations. On the shadow side, Mercury-Mars conjunctions have a reputation for being very pushy or in-your-face! It is also possible that with the Mercury Rx we are revisiting or mulling over some previous decision or action.

Also, it appears that jolly Santa, i.e. Jupiter Rx in Taurus, may be turned around a tad, directionally, by the Mercury Rx-Neptune square as he is orbiting/trining the Scroogelike Capricorn Sun today (exact at 10:28 am) instead of hanging out with Mrs. Claus at the North Pole. Whether this actually results in more goodies in our Christmas stockings now, however, remains to be seen. 🙂

Sun trine Jupiter, among other things, is often perceived as increasing our personal reserves of goodwill, generosity, and optimism – and sometimes even our quota of luck or good fortune – as Jupiter has traditionally been linked with increased prosperity or at least an easing of circumstances. We may also be more inclined now to want to grow or expand our personal world in some manner.

“I am a strong believer in luck and I find the harder I work the more I have of it.” – Ben Franklin

Born On This Day: Astronomer/astrologer Johannes Kepler, who discovered the laws of planetary motion. Kepler was born in 1571 in Weil der Stadt, Holy Roman Empire (d. 1630).

“The soul of the newly born baby is marked for life by the pattern of the stars at the moment it comes into the world, unconsciously remembers it, and remains sensitive to the return of configurations of a similar kind.” – Johannes Kepler, Harmonies of the World

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

Astrology December 19, 2019: Mars Sextile Saturn, Mercury Square Neptune

Cosmic Weather:

(Mars in Scorpio forms a waning sextile to Saturn in Capricorn, 4:59 am.; Mercury in Sagittarius forms a waning square to Neptune in Pisces, 11:19 pm.)

Today, we are likely better off just going with what we know and playing by the rules  (Mars sextile Saturn), while putting off pondering the ambiguous or oblique (Mercury square Neptune) for another day. 🙂

Motivating Mars sextile structuring Saturn is excellent energy for invoking self-discipline, working diligently at projects, getting organized, creating order, bringing long-standing matters to completion. It can be a time when our patience and persistence are rewarded.

While there is not a whole lot of fanfare to this aspect, it is a great influence for rendering a solid performance, especially when we are working within our strength or comfort zones.

With Mars also deposited in reconfiguring Scorpio, it’s possible that our actions or efforts now may be generating some measure or sense of transformation or feeling of inner renewal.

On the shadow side, logical Mercury squaring fantasy Neptune, the planet of deception, can potentially challenge us mentally, making it harder to sort out fact from fiction. Our imaginations also tend to be working overtime now, which can possibly end up making us more vulnerable – depending, of course, on how we manage to spin things in our heads. Too, if something seems too good to be true now, it is probably a  hoax or possibly an extension of wishful thinking.

On the plus side, this aspect can be very advantageous for any type of creative work, particularly when we are able to get in the flow and suspend judgment of our output.

“Don’t think about making art, just get it done. Let everyone else decide if it’s good or bad, whether they love it or hate it. While they are deciding, make even more art.” Andy Warhol

Today’s Astrology March 24, 2019: Mercury Retrograde Conjunct Neptune

24 Sunday Mar 2019

Cosmic Weather:

“And then there are days of being lost in the woods, not knowing the fate, but just being a wanderer. That’s life.” Anonymous

When you really think about it, being lost, in itself, isn’t something that’s necessarily good or bad. It’s when you’re lost, and you know that you’re lost – that’s when life can get way more complicated! And, fast! Because in the latter scenario, instead of simply enjoying being clueless, being a so-called wanderer, being lost in space, or in the woods, whatever, you’re now spending nearly all your dang time and energy trying to figure out where the heck you are! And, how to get back! 🙂

Okay…

So it’s round two of the Mercury (thoughts, reasoning, ideas) Neptune (idealism, fantasy, deception) meetup today. First time they hooked up was on February 19 at the time of the Virgo Full Moon. Now we have Mercury in its retrograde phrase, at this second meetup. April 2nd will be when Mercury and Neptune have their final warm embrace, with Mercury stationing direct on March 28, and still at 16 degrees of Pisces. The same degree where it is now, and will remain, until April 1st, or April Fool’s Day. Which should, right away, raise another big red flag! 🙂

So, essentially, we have mental Mercury conjunct blank screen Neptune in fishy Pisces for really the next several days. During this time, some of us may be lost, literally and or symbolically, and not know it. Others of us may know that we’re lost, but don’t yet know how to get unlost or found. (For astrology newbies, Mercury conjunct Neptune, on the shadow side, is associated with confusion, misinformation, things being up in the air, scandals, cover-ups, innuendos.)  To top it off, we have the newly-released Mueller report supposedly getting ready to float around the halls of Capitol Hill. Ad nauseum, no doubt. Probably for decades!

Plus, here’s a fact that nobody in the media is reporting: Russia’s Vladimir Putin (b. 10/7/52) also has, in his own natal horoscope, Mercury conjunct Neptune (in of the sign Libra)! And, it’s a close, two-degree conjunction! Yet, President Trump still insists “there’s been absolutely no Russian collusion…” Hey, buddy, we all know otherwise. All we have to do is look up in the frickin’ sky! Mercury and Neptune are colluding! Right this very minute. Boy oh boy… the guy must be blind or something. Plus Putin’s own natal horoscope confirms what we’re seeing and shows his own planetary involvement in the situation! Gee wiz! It’s a late March slam dunk, if you ask me! 🙂

Then there’s poor Robert Mueller (b. 8/7/44). He also has the transiting Mercury-Neptune conjunction today exactly opposite his natal Mars and Chiron conjunction at 16 degrees of Virgo. So, he’s, no doubt, also in a foggy state (and will be for a while), and probably feels that a lot of the work (Virgo) that he’s been putting into the investigation, over the last two years, will probably end up being either misunderstood or misrepresented. A lot of the time, Mars-Neptune aspects can be not only ego-denying, but also exhaustive – mentally, emotionally, and physically. He’s probably so happy to finally be able kick this baby to the curb!

Famous March 24 Birthdays: Dorothy Height, Steve McQueen, Peyton Manning, Harry Houdini

“All you need to do is organize your butterflies.” Dorothy Height.

Born in Virginia in 1912, Dorothy Height was a leader in addressing the rights of both women and African Americans as the president of the National Council of Negro Women. In the 1990s, she drew young people into her cause in the war against drugs, illiteracy and unemployment. The numerous honors bestowed upon her include the Presidential Medal of Freedom (1994) and the Congressional Gold Medal (2004). She died on April 20, 2010, in Washington, D.C. (biography.com)

In Height’s horoscope, among other things, she had Venus (women) in empathetic Pisces (the sign ruling civil rights) in a tight conjunction with wounded healer Chiron. Intellectual Mercury was also in trailblazing Aries and exactly square to idealistic Neptune in Cancer, no doubt, supplying her with plenty of vision and imagination in reaching for her goals. Her Mercury was also sextile to Mars and Pluto, which were tightly conjunct in information-minded, communicative Gemini (Height was also an administrator, educator, and author). People with Mars and Pluto conjunct tend to be strong transformational figures and with this conjunction occurring in articulate Gemini she would likely be very persuasive in her speech and communication of her ideas.

Anyway, hope you enjoy your Sunday!…Remember, too,… if you’re feeling a little lost, all you need to do is take three steps forward. Then two steps back. Then take another four steps forward. Or, you may want to try, just going backwards with all your steps, since Mercury is in retrograde motion. It’s really all up to you. Whatever you decide. I can only advise you, at this point, as your lowly, humble, clueless astrologer.

Astrology / Cosmic Quote of the Day for June 23, 2015

Curved Path

(Today’s planetary aspects: Rational Mercury squares evasive Neptune; impatient Mars quinqunxes restraining Saturn; the Moon is in corrective Virgo; and yesterday’s reform-oriented Jupiter-Uranus trine, is still in effect. )

Cosmic Quote of the Day: “There is stability in walking an uncertain path, because you never allow yourself to be misled by what you think you know.” A. J. Darkholme

When we do presume to know the “lay of the land,” we do tend to naturally let our guard down. Or, are possibly more apt to relax our critical judgment as we figure we will probably not be encountering too many surprises or other stuff we cannot handle. However, sometimes it is that very “I got this” attitude that can end up leading us down a more precarious path.

With today’s energy, especially the trickier Mercury-Neptune connection, which can sometimes serve to distort, delete, or cloak the facts, it may be very advantageous for us to not take anything for granted now, and to be extra vigilant regarding some of the situations which we find ourselves. That vigilance may be arrived at by doing such practical things as double-checking stuff, asking for clarity when in doubt, making sure others understand what we’re trying to communicate to them, refraining from automatically accepting things at face value. Fortunately, the Moon deposited in logical Virgo, all day, can serve as a healthy filter to help us wade through the obscuring Neptunian fog. Too, this can be a great day to do any creative work that calls for employing the power of our imagination.  Meanwhile, the Mars-Saturn quinqunx influence may also require us to justify our actions, especially to those who are in charge. One of my favorite astrologers, Lilly Roddy, said in her daily blog today, that we may want to just use this day as a “mental health day,” and chill out with movies and snacks, while planning for tomorrow. Also sounds like a good strategy!

Famous Birthdays June 23: Randy Jackson, Clarence Thomas, Richard Bach.

“You’re never given a dream without also being given the power to make it true.” Richard Bach, The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah.

On a personal note, I’ve been absent from this blog for the last three months, mainly due to my workload. Hopefully, though, I’ll be able to be around here with more regularity in the future.

Hope you enjoy your day!

Astrology May 25, 2012: Mercury Squares Neptune

COSMIC WATCH:

“Get your facts first, and then you can distort them as much as you please.” Mark Twain

With analytical Mercury square fantasy Neptune today there can be a tendency to gloss over the facts. Or substitute fancies for facts. Sometimes with this influence information is also withheld from us, for one reason or another. Or, we are the one who is doing the withholding. On the shadow side, Neptune is linked with deception, including the self-generated kind.

Some strategies we may want to employ now to avert any potential communication snafus include: asking for clarification of statements made in conversation; repeating back what we thought was said; not making any assumptions; and adhering only to the facts of matters.

We may also want to check with how things are resonating for us on a gut level, as Neptune does govern our psychic impressions, which may be more activated now. On another level, Mercury-Neptune is excellent for creative projects that draw upon our imagination.

Early evening, the Moon also exits nurturing Cancer for colorful Leo (6:11 pm EDT) making it easier for us to shine in all our glory. 🙂 “Never dull your shine for somebody else.” Tyra Banks

Famous Birthdays May 25: Beverly Sills, Victoria Shaw

What is the advantage in sticking only with the facts of an issue when making a decision?

COSMIC WATCH:

“Uncertainty is the only certainty there is, and knowing how to live with insecurity is the only security.” John Allen Paulos

The Moon’s entrance into nesting Cancer (4:37 am EDT) encourages us to get back to our familial roots. It also raises the volume up on our emotions, especially those centered around our protective instincts. We may need to rein in feelings of rebelliousness and defensiveness when the Moon squares freedom-loving Uranus in Aries (12:05 pm EDT) and opposes controlling Pluto in career Capricorn (5:09 pm EDT).

There is also a “tricky” aspect to the day with mental Mercury in Gemini’s  square to nebulous, confusing Neptune which can serve to fog up our perceptions. We are cautioned not to believe all that we hear today and are well-served to thoroughly comb through all the facts. Neptune’s ray can be very deceptive and misleading. It is also linked with scandals and cover-ups.

On the plus side, it can be excellent time for any creative work that utilizes our powers of imagination, which Neptune governs. Neptune is also stationing retrograde today favorable for turning our focus inward (Neptune rules spirituality). Neptune stays retrograde until early November.

“As we grow old, the beauty steals inward.” Ralph Waldo Emerson

COSMIC WEATHER:

New Moon in Re-birthing Scorpio. Focusing our attention on transformation, Ouija boards, and wrinkle-removing beauty products.

Mental Mercury is in an exact square to Delusional, Spaced Out Neptune.  The sky above us is suddenly a deep shade of purple. We also believe we possess a magical ability to levitate our toes way above the clouds.

Mercury in Transitioning Scorpio is also trine to Genius Uranus in Divinity Pisces. We are able to channel Einstein and Edison.  But still, the winning lottery numbers, manage to elude us.

(Also, with contract-ruling Mercury “in a fog” with Neptune, it may be best to postpone signing important contracts today, as pivotal information may be missing, or could possibly be misrepresented. Agreements could also be misconstrued.  Mercury-Neptune is associated with “deceit” and “fact-twisting,” as well general “mental confusion.”)

Activities Highlighted today: Rummage sales, purging and recycling, channeling spirits, pruning, weeding, painting, writing, acting, poetry, film-making, dancing, figuring out technology, intuition, deep skin massage, meditation.

“Lying is done with words and also with silence.” Adrienne Rich

The Crystal Ball is serving me up lumpy pea soup today and that can only mean one thing: Deceptive Neptune’s in the kitchen again and up to no good in the culinary department!

The spacey guy can never follow a frickin’ recipe! All he ever wants to do is improvise and smoke pot. He can’t even get the pea soup color right. Just look at it in the Crystal Ball! Does that look like pea soup to you? No, it looks like Kool-Aid and who knows what the heck he has spiked it with!

What’s a humble fortune-teller like me suppose to do in the way of concocting an intelligible forecast for the collective looking at that sorry green blob?

And, to make matters worse, vagrant Neptune’s gone ahead and kidnapped Thought-Keeper Mercury in wealthy Taurus, by way of the “square aspect,” and is now demanding ransom so he can allegedly take cooking classes, but we know better.

Horoscope readers: Beware! Beware!

Be on guard today against any, and all manner of, sordid and sundry individuals, who deliberately twist the truth, most likely to gain handsome monetary advantages – and I’m not just talking the usual broke and depressed Pisces relatives here.

Neptunian deception may be lurking all around us, even on seemingly pristine kitchen counter tops and just-flushed toilet bowls, so please, please be careful. Carry lots of anti-bacterial spray cleaner with you, especially good-looking single women on blind dates need to do this now big time.

One more thing. We need to avoid falling prey to our own assortment of goofy ideas today, the delusional ones that don’t make any sense on paper, especially if they involve a forfeiture of any cash on our part. If you must give someone cash today, only pay them with Monopoly money.

Other than the Mercury square Neptune fanfare, which by the way, is sensational for artistic or musical expression, all else is pretty quiet on the cosmic front.

We still have the life-altering Jupiter conjunct Uranus in explosive Aries and Mars in Virgo throwing hand grenades at the twosome, but that’s getting a little boring.

Also, the self-indulgent, always keeping her cool, affable Taurus Moon is expectantly choosing to turn a deaf ear, of course, to any of the more discordant surroundings,  preferring instead to luxuriate peacefully at the spa receiving costly beauty treatments and eating soothing chocolate. She advises all of us to do the same. The way she sees it, the matter of Uranian revolution can wait until after she’s at least had a pedicure.

In the News: US scientists have found further evidence that huge seas existed long ago on Mars. So, cool!  Again, just more proof to the discovery power of the current incredible Jupiter-Uranus conjunction in exploratory Aries. If you go back in history with this aspect, it’s always been big for the discovery front pipeline.

Also, GM announced Tuesday that it is recalling 1.53 million cars and trucks for fire risk. Did I tell you that Jupiter conjunct Uranus in fiery Aries also has major combustible overtones to it, particularly with Mars in Virgo antagonizing that pair now with that weird quinqunx aspect, that no one knows how to pronounce?

Always something new to be concerned about, isn’t there?  That’s life!

June 9th birthdays: Michael J. Fox, Johnny Depp

Enjoy your Wednesday! Remember, don’t fall for get-rich-quick schemes and don’t eat any of Neptune’s cooking. It sucks.
