“I wanted to call a time out, to demand that everybody just STOP until I could understand everything.” Elizabeth Gilbert

Being an early degree Aries Rising with a Taurus Sun, I’m used to lots of starts and stops in my life. Mostly self-initiated ones! Last week, for instance, I restarted this decade-old blog after taking a hiatus from it for nearly two years. With transiting Mars crossing my Ascendant (new beginnings), Jupiter transiting my ninth house (writing and publishing), and the January 5th Partial Eclipse falling in my Capricorn tenth house (professional ambitions), I decided all of a sudden, what the heck, I’ll just go ahead and give it another whirl. See what happens!

Anyway, the last few days I’ve been really feeling it! Feeling that universal Aries adrenaline rush that always goes hand in hand with putting something new into motion. Today, however, my aging physical form feels like it’s been put, quite literally, through the proverbial wringer! I clearly realize now, with pushback from the weary flesh, that, yes, even though it’s only been a few days, I’ve already been pressuring myself way too much with trying to get this astrology blog out to you on a daily basis. I’ve been blogging fresh from scratch, kinda like making homemade biscuits, without enough editing. A dangerous ingredient to leave out! And all because of that darn, spontaneous Aries rising again! 🙂

While journaling this morning, what also kept coming up for me is that I needed to do the Taurean Sun thing, once again, and methodically s-l-o-w myself down. That’s one of the things I love most about being a Taurus is the steady supply of self-preservation tips that I’m always seemingly receiving from my wise inner guru. Synchronistically, just now, too, my computer also crashed, just as I was writing all this down. And then, it just as mysteriously came back on with the following two-word message from Dell, written across the computer screen, “Please Wait.” I’m not kidding! Okay, okay, okay Universe! You win! You’ve got my attention! I’m s-l-o-w-i-n-g it down! 🙂

Today’s Moon in grounding, practical Taurus now is an excellent time for all of us to, perhaps, pause a bit and re-assess our situations. Especially if we’re feeling pooped or frazzled. To maybe just chill out a bit, and see if there’s possibly a better path for us to take to reach the elusive Capricorn mountain top! What’s immediately coming to mind here, too, is working smarter, not harder! Can I get an Amen to that? 🙂

Meanwhile, the waxing Taurus Moon’s trine to sustaining Saturn, in old age Capricorn, this afternoon (1:50 pm), is very good for any organizing and long-term planning efforts. The Moon’s sextile to intuitive Neptune also sensitizes us to the feelings of others (4:15 pm). It’s also a good time to go with our hunches. This evening, the Taurus Moon trines Mercury in Capricorn (8:30 pm). This aspect favors tending to paperwork, formal contract signings, and serious discussions. The entire day is generally supportive for business and financial dealings with the Taurus Moon governing possession and money matters. The sign Taurus has an innate need for comfort and security. Would probably be a good time to meet with someone like a financial planner and get all your ducks in a row!

“Don’t think money does everything or you are going to end up doing everything for money.” Voltaire

Famous January 15th Birthdays: Martin Luther King Jr., Pitbull, Aristotle Onassis.

“If I cannot do great things, I can do small things in a great way.” Martin Luther King Jr.

*All times EST.

Hope you enjoy your day! Don’t be afraid to hit the pause button.

Astrology for September 2, 2015: The Moon’s in Anchoring Taurus

02 Wednesday Sep 2015

“Relax, let go, allow, and recognize that some of your desires are about how you think your world should be, rather than how it is in that moment. Become an astute observer…judge less and listen more. Take time to open your mind to the fascinating mystery and uncertainty that we all experience.” Wayne Dyer (May 10,1940 – August 29, 2015)

Today’s Energy:

The Moon’s shift into “anchoring” Taurus (5:02 am) helps us to see the wisdom in going at things at our own pace – particularly if that pace includes some time for partaking in pleasurable or leisure activities. Communing with nature can also be especially grounding and renewing for us now. “Is not a dew-drop on a blade of grass more beautiful than a pearl set in gold? Friedrich Max Muller. The Moon remains in Taurus until Friday morning (7:48 am).

The Moon trining “altruistic” Jupiter in “service-oriented Virgo” (1:01 pm) endows us with a sense of peace and goodwill toward others – especially if we’re operating from our nobler side. This is also excellent energy for dealing with people from other cultures or backgrounds, promoting women’s issues, or for making improvements in the home, including  any re-organizing or de-cluttering efforts. This might also be a good time to air out the house; let it breath and release trapped energies.

Moon sextile to “transcendent” Neptune in Pisces (6:54 pm) guides us to experience more of a sense of inner calmness or stillness. The worries of the day tend to drift away now like gentle waves receding along the shoreline. A wonderful time, perhaps, to dine by candlelight, be by water, or to take in a movie or play.

Moon trining the life-giving Sun in “productive” Virgo (10:06 pm) enhances our physical vitality and personal sense of power. Our energies are flowing now in a more unobstructed manner. If we’re so inclined, we may want to consider using this time period for tending to important work-related projects, career strategizing, or for business/ investment planning.

Interestingly, it was Aristotle who reportedly first coined the word ‘energy’ to express the concept of “vigor of expression.” He also believed “the energy of the mind is the essence of life.”

*All times are EDT

Famous September 2 Birthdays: Mark Harmon, Terry Bradshaw, Christa McAuliffe, Harvey Levin, P.D. Ouspensky

Enjoy your Wednesday! Sorry I’ve been so scarce around here, this summer. 🙂

Astrology January 18, 2015: Moon Enters Capricorn, Sextiles Mars and Neptune

18 Sunday Jan 2015

“What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals.” Henry David Thoreau

COSMIC WATCH:

The Moon’s shift into “ambitious” Capricorn (7:04 am) helps us align with our “inner executive.” We may feel more oriented towards practical achievement in the outer world, now, as Capricorn governs such things as career, status, and reputation. Yet, as Thoreau wisely reminds us, above, realizing our goals is but one piece of the puzzle; how we ultimately grow in self-awareness, or self-mastery, by attaining our goals is often what’s more important, in the long run. Of course, regrettably, it can be very easy in our busy, everyday life, to overlook this interior aspect of our success.

The Moon’s sextile to “energizing” Mars in Pisces (3:26 pm) can be a boon to our self-confidence, as well as serving as an impetus for taking action, or putting things into motion. This may also be a good time to rally behind, or encourage someone, who may be down on their luck.

The Moon’s sextile to “transcendent” Neptune in Pisces (4:52 pm) helps facilitate telepathic communication among us; also, soul-searching. Gives a desire to put our perceived differences aside in order to arrive at a mutual understanding. “Each person you meet is an aspect of yourself, clamoring for love.” Eric Michael Leventhal.

*All times EST.

Question for Today: What motivates you more than anything?

Astrology October 30, 2011: Moon Sextiles Dreamy Neptune

30 Sunday Oct 2011

Posted by in October 2011 Astrology

COSMIC WATCH:

The first half of the day, the Moon finishes up her monthly stay in starry-eyed Sagittarius, where we are still, no doubt, eager to impart vestiges of our sacred vision of the future to anyone that we can cleverly seduce to hold royal court with us. 🙂 The fact that we also have idealistic, dreamy Neptune in futuristic Aquarius joining us for that “sermon on the mount,” via the harmonious sextile aspect (9:30 am EDT), is most assuredly, an extra feather in our cap. This is also very nice energy for immersion into humanitarian causes, as Neptune governs our compassionate impulses, as well as our imagination and creativity. Too, the Sadge Moon naturally inclines us to want to make a positive or uplifting contribution to the collective, in some way.

Later, the Moon’s descent into pragmatic Capricorn (12:39 pm EDT), the Saturnian school of hard knocks, has us quickly exiting the cumulus stratosphere for the safety and security of the more grounded earth plane. The Capricorn Moon is always that time of the month when we are inclined to buckle down and get serious with our practical goals and intentions for ourselves. However, we will also initially need to be very flexible, maybe even innovative, as the Moon is squaring rebellious, non-conforming Uranus in spontaneous Aries (2:53 pm EDT), a time which can find us dealing with unexpected twists and turns.

Fortunately for us, though, the late evening hours are potentially very regenerative and healing, as the Moon forms a trine to fortuitous Jupiter in financial Taurus (9:19 pm EDT) and a conjunction with transforming Pluto in worldly Capricorn (9:58 pm EDT). Too, we still do have expansive Jupiter in a trine aspect with Pluto (this was exact on Friday), so tonight’s energies help us to tap into that magical configuration once again. This may particularly be an advantageous evening for plotting career or business moves that are revitalizing.

“To work for the common good is the greatest creed.” Albert Schweitzer

Are you satisfied with your work or career path? Does it give you a sense of fulfillment? What is often fun to do with a natal chart is see how a person’s Sun is aspected. The Sun symbolizes our ego and power source and often the closest aspects to it seem to shed light on our special “mission in life.” In my chart, for example, I have the Sun exactly sextile Uranus which rules, among other things, astrology. I also have a tight square to probing Pluto and I majored in psychology in college, a subject which Pluto governs. I have always been deeply fascinated with human behavior. I have often thought, too, I would have made a great detective, as I have Mars, ruling law enforcement, in my career house and a Martian-ruled Aries rising. Of course, in a way, I am a “cosmic detective,”  attempting to uncover the celestial influences surreptitiously at play in our lives.

Enjoy your Sunday!

Astrology September 15, 2011: Moon Squares Mars, Sextiles Neptune

15 Thursday Sep 2011

COSMIC WATCH:

Cultivating patience helps to preserve our equilibrium this morning, in face of the restless, Aries Moon’s square to impulsive Mars, its planetary ruler, in protective Cancer (11:07 am EDT). This more challenging aspect can also trigger defensive posturing, particularly if we are feeling threatened by uncertain elements in our environment.

Cosmic forces should become easier to subdue once the Aries Moon sextiles serene Neptune in humanistic Aquarius (1:10 pm EDT), an invitation to demonstrate our caring and compassion. The Moon’s entrance into grounded Taurus (3:25 pm EDT) also helps to steady our emotions and tips the scale in favor of pleasurable pursuits as a rejuvenating uplift.

“Pleasure is the Divine seasoning in the diet of life.” Lewis F. Korns

Famous Persons with Moon square Mars: Tina Turner, Marlon Brando, Charles Bronson, Nicolas Cage, Tom Brokaw

NEWS UPDATE: With the Moon at the very end of “Warrior” Aries and sextile idealistic Neptune, President Obama today awarded the Medal of Honor, our country’s highest military honor, to Marine Sgt. Dakota Meyer for his heroic actions in Afghanistan back in September of 2009. Aries is the zodiacal sign governing soldiers and the military. Moon-Neptune also tends to denote “selfless” behavior for the good of others. Very fitting energy for bestowing such a rare and noble honor upon a very brave soldier.

Astrology March 25, 2011: “Is Glass Half Full?” Moon in Sagittarius

COSMIC WEATHER:

“Having a positive mental attitude is asking how something can be done rather than saying it can’t be done.” Bo Bennett

The bewitching Moon spends her day in optimistic Sagittarius, where she is more inclined to conclude that, “Yes, indeed, the glass is half full!” The early morning hours are best for mental work with the Moon’s trine to logical thinker Mercury ( 8:24 am EDT). The Moon’s tense square to impulsive Mars (11:09 am EDT) also cautions us to “think” before we act.

Later on, our romantic prospects brighten with the Moon’s warm sextile to connection queen Venus (7:03 pm EDT). Our blissful mood continues with the Moon’s magical sextile to dreamy, meditative guru Neptune (9:26 pm EDT), a time to seek out more mystical or creative outlets. Neptune represents our “link to the divine.”

Shortly afterward, the Moon then switches to realistic Capricorn (9:58 pm EDT), forming a potent square to rebellious child Uranus, who could put a disruptive kink into our levitation practices, if we’re not careful. A time when we could also temporarily conclude that the glass is “half empty.” Of course, this need not be the case if we keep our eyes focused on the “bigger picture” and our grander intentions for ourselves.

Patrice Astrology March 8, 2011: “Higher Consciousness” Moon sextile Neptune

COSMIC WEATHER:

“There is consciousness of the ego and the world around you, and there is consciousness of the Real Self, the Real You.” Remez Sasson

The “pioneering” Aries Moon journeys down mystical trails in its blissful meet-up (sextile) with “enlightened” Neptune in “discovery” Aquarius (11:05 am EST), suggesting an ideal time period for us to tap into our own inner prairie of “higher consciousness” and “creativity.”

Later, the Moon’s entrance into “physical, self-indulgent” Taurus (12:53 pm EST) may have some of us focused on nirvana-bound body wraps and massage, and glorious visions of dark chocolate. The Taurus Moon is perennially a passionate proponent of “creature comforts” as a form of healthy self-renewal. It also ushers in a more practical and material focus, as “acquisition” Taurus is the sign of money and possessions.

“He that is of the opinion money will do everything may well be suspected of doing everything for money.” Benjamin Franklin

Patrice Astrology February 26, 2011: “Angel Wings and Miracles” Moon-Neptune

COSMIC WEATHER:

Moon switches from “highway man” Sagittarius to “let’s get down to business” Capricorn (2:32 pm EST). But, before the Moon vacates truth-seeking Sadge, she forms a heavenly sextile to mystical Neptune (12:09 pm EST), who takes her for an idyllic stroll on the gentle wings of angels. The short jaunt truly inspires the Moon to “keep believing in miracles,” and suggests for all of us, a magical time period ahead, if we but dare to believe in the unseen, “divine forces.”

“Miracles occur naturally as an expression of love. The real miracle is the love that inspires them. In this sense, everything that comes from love is a miracle.” Marie Lloyd.

Famous birthdays February 26th: Michael Bolton (58), late Tony Randall (91), late Johnny Cash (79)

Patricia’s Daily Astrology Horoscope July 5, 2010: Space Aliens

04 Sunday Jul 2010

“I think space exploration is very important.  I think there is very intelligent life on Mars.  I believe that Martians are spying on us from the bottom of the ocean.” Annabella Sciorra

“Cosmic Word of The Day”: Hallucination

Definition: 1) a sensory experience of something that does not exist outside the mind, caused by various physical and mental disorders, or by reaction to toxic substances, and usually manifested as visual or auditory images; 2) a false notion, belief, or impression; illusion; delusion

Origin: 1640-1650; < L hallucination (s. of (h) hallucinatio) a wondering of the mind


COSMIC WEATHER:

We’re enjoying an onslaught of socially adventurous energy today via the uninhibited Aries Moon trining love diva Venus in ardent Leo.

We’re also privy to a deluge of fanciful illusions and hallucinations with the Moon’s intimate sextile to creative, illusion-weaver Neptune in futuristic Aquarius.

As a result of a convergence of these mind-altering, relationship energies, we’re expecting a spectacular spaceship landing and a close encounter with space aliens to take place sometime today.  Most likely this event will occur before the Moon’s ingress into practical Taurus at 8:30 pm EDT.

We understand these space aliens are coming to Earth with the express purpose of collecting Uranus in Aries and re-directing him back, with plenty of alcohol, into the eventual Piscean sea for his long retrograde journey which will continue through early December.

“The only thing that scares me more than space aliens is the idea that there aren’t any space aliens.” Ellen DeGeneres

Famous July 5th Birthdays: Shane Filan (31), Huey Lewis (58)

Enjoy your Monday!

Tweet me when the hallucinatory spaceship lands.
