Moon square Neptune, perceptions

Cosmic Weather:

“We live in a fantasy world, a world of illusion. The great task in life is to find reality.” – Iris Murdoch

The Waxing Moon in truth-seeking Sagittarius squares shape-shifter Neptune Rx in Pisces (12:32 pm EDT) – For a myriad of reasons, it seems that we often tend to see mainly what we want to see in a situation and, more or less, pitch the rest. Unless we are maybe prodded or challenged to do a deeper dive into a matter, at which time, we may then discover – much to our chagrin or horror – that we have been laboring under an illusion – and a very persistent one at that! Of course, too, there are probably some of us, no doubt, who are much more talented or gifted than others with respect to being able to view or perceive things in a chronically “off-the-mark” manner. 🙂

Luna square fantasy Neptune does seem to exaggerate this perceived vulnerability in our perceptions as Neptune is thought to represent/depict, among other things, actual foggy conditions in nature – which can, accordingly, make it that much more difficult for us to see the underlying/surrounding reality of something. Neptune is also similarly associated with costume parties that hide/distort true identities.

So with Neptune’s alignment with the Sagittarius Moon – which archetypally reigns over our personal collection of beliefs, ideologies, convictions, and aspirations – it would appear that a possible challenge for us now may be to figure out or devise some kind of “low-beam” strategy that allows us to cut through some of the haze that may be shrouding or clouding our understanding of the bigger picture now.

Perhaps one way to do this may be to ask ourselves questions, such as: What might I be failing to see here? What might I be leaving out? How might it benefit me to purge, or let go of, or at least temporarily suspend, some of the storylines or narratives that I may have been telling myself, that may be suspect? Too, often when we pose questions to ourselves, it is akin to doing a Google search yielding a plethora of results. Another alternative here may be to do a Tarot reading and shuffle our questions into the cards.

“Without reflection, we go blindly on our way, creating more unintended consequences, and failing to achieve anything useful.” – Margaret J. Wheatley

Additionally, the Moon-Neptune influence may offer up a period of dreaminess; a longing for escape; immersion into activities such as meditation or yoga that provide us with a feeling of peace or transcendence.

*All times EDT

Born On This Day: Liz Green, American-British professional astrologer, author, Jungian analyst, and lecturer; one of the most highly respected astrologers of the 20th century. Liz is turning 76 today:

“Sometimes “inner work” requires an act of loyalty rather than an effort at transformation. Knowing what makes us happy (Venus), expressing this to others (Mercury), and standing firm in the face of opposition (Mars) may seem very petty against the more profound concerns of the outer world. Yet in their own way, these things are equally profound, for it is these small acts of self-affirmation that define the ego and ultimately the capacity to mediate the heavy planets with their destructive and transformative potentials.”

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

analysis, daily astrology, daily numerology, First Quarter Moon, last-minute efforts, Moon square Neptune, taking action

Cosmic Weather:

There’s a First Quarter Moon in spontaneous, futuristic Sagittarius, this Monday, as Luna forms a square to the life-sustaining Sun in precise Virgo (4:39 pm). We are motivated to take action to forge ahead toward our wondrous destiny although we also may feel a bit bothered/constrained by the rules, our inner critic, or perhaps hemmed in by a quest for perfection.

Self-assertive Mars is also anaretic at 29 degrees of Virgo until it enters Libra, tomorrow evening (8:14 pm). Some astrologers refer to this degree as the “fate degree.” More commonly, it’s associated with last-minute pushes to finish things up, even though our energy for such matters may be waning.

Numerologically, the 13th of the month carries a more “no-nonsense” approach to affairs along with resilient determination.

*All times EDT

One very sweet birthday to mention to you today: Milton Snavely Hershey was born on September 13th, back in 1857 in Derry Township, PA. (d. October 13, 1945). Hershey was an American chocolatier, businessman, and philanthropist. Trained in the confectionery business, Hershey pioneered the manufacture of caramel using fresh milk. He also introduced chocolate to much of the world. (Wikipedia)

“Caramels are only a fad. Chocolate is a permanent thing.” Milton S. Hershey

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

Today’s Astrology May 20, 2019: Sadge Moon Conjuncts Jupiter

Cosmic Weather:

“The moment you doubt whether you can fly, you cease forever to be able to do it.” J.M. Barrie

We kick off the work week laden with a fair measure of wanderlust in our sneakers with the waning Moon in “let me gallop alone in the rat race” Sagittarius.

The Moon makes an early morning square to “beam me up” Neptune in transcendental Pisces (6:31 am). Then around lunchtime (1:04 pm), Luna merges with oversizing Jupiter (potentially a headache for the kitchen staff as all the offerings at the buffet bar, no doubt, will suddenly disappear).

Anyway, this theme of excess, pretty much pervades the rest of the day, as self-indulgent Venus in throaty Taurus also forms a sesquiquadrate aspect (11:19 pm) to jolly Jupiter. Of course, this day can also have a lot of positivity to it as Venus-Jupiter together can make us feel more optimistic and playful.

The Moon also goes VOC after its midday conjunction with Jupiter so it’s best to put the finishing touches on your magnifico creations instead of birthing anything new. The Nightime Goddess enters lean, mean Capricorn, early tomorrow morning (3:56 am), when it will be time, again, to crack the whip!

The Sun is also spending its last full day in builder/banker Taurus today, for the year, so there could be a final push to “get ‘er done,” especially good for attending to stuff that will make us feel more anchored in the world.

*All times EDT

On This Day in History: On May 20, 1873, Levi Strauss and Jacob Davis patent the first blue jeans with copper rivets.

The astrology that day: Contractually-minded Mercury was separating from an exact conjunction to Fashionista Venus in form-fitting Taurus. Pioneering Mars was also in design-oriented Libra and forming an exact quinqunx to the empowering Sun in “let’s make some money, honey” Taurus.

Famous May 20 Birthdays: Cher, Jimmy Stewart, Moshe Dayan, Dr. Jack Kevorkian

“The trouble with some women is that they get all excited about nothing – and then marry him.” Cher

Hope you enjoy your Monday!

(Today’s Planetary Aspects: Venus trine Uranus; Moon square Neptune; Moon in Sagittarius.)

Cosmic Quote of the Day: “Sometimes we have to meet people where they are, Ollie. Honor their desires, regardless of our own.” Tess Hilmo, With a Name like Love 

It can be a very freeing experience, for all of us, when we find a way to suspend our expectations and judgments of others, and just allow them to gracefully be who they are. One thing that can also help out here is to try to really understand where another person is coming from before forming an opinion of them.

Today’s Energy:

The Moon is in adventurous Sagittarius all day.

The Sagittarius Moon squares idealistic Neptune at 5:12 pm. It may be hard to come down from the clouds now.

Venus trines Uranus, 2:26 am. Uranus has a freeing impact on the Goddess of Love. We seek out novelty or newness in our relationships, and in our leisure activities. This influence also favors creativity and group expression. It will remain in effect for a couple of days.

* All times EDT.

Famous June 29 Birthdays: Gary Busey, Slim Pickens, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.

“I have no right to say or do anything that diminishes a man in his own eyes. What matters is not what I think of him but what he thinks of himself. Hurting a man in his dignity is a crime.” Antoine de Saint-ExupĂ©ry

“Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird, that cannot fly.” Langston Hughes

A spirit of idealism can act as a trusty “North Star adviser” to steer us closer toward our dreams; When it is also powered by an anchoring engine of realism, clarity, action, and determination we can become an unstoppable force for the creative manifestation of our desires. “If one is lucky, a solitary fantasy can totally transform a million realities.” Maya Angelou. RIP.

COSMIC WATCH:

This Valentine’s Day begins with the Moon deposited in “passionate” Scorpio, which will likely intensify our emotions and desires. However, tonight, the ambience around us is much lighter with the Moon’s entrance into “exuberant, fun-loving” Sagittarius (7:57 pm EST). Too, Luna’s square to fantasy Neptune, in dreamy Pisces (8:41 pm EST), poises us to imagine sweet visions of “happy ever after” with our beloved. “My soul will find yours.” Jude Deveraux

Astrology November 11, 2011: Moon Squares Fuzzy Neptune

astrology for november 11 2011, breathing, health, horoscope november 11 2011, Mars in Virgo, money, Moon in Gemini, Moon in Taurus, Moon square mars, Moon square Neptune, sticking with the facts

COSMIC WATCH:

In wake of the potent Full Moon yesterday, there still may be more of an emotional tenor to this day. This morning, the Moon in plodding, materially-minded Taurus, also squares off with fuzzy, elusive Neptune (11:28 am EST), so we may want to tread lightly, especially in financial matters. It is always a good idea, too, whenever we are dealing with Neptune’s nebulous ray, to simply stick with the facts, and to mute or dispel any pipe dreams and or irrational fears.

The Moon’s shift into breezy, disseminating Gemini (3:11 pm EST) provides us with more flexibility, as well as burgeoning intellectual curiosity over the next couple of days. The Moon’s square to restless Mars (3:53 pm EST), newly deposited in correcting, health-ruling Virgo, also suggests we may need to be more mindful and considerate of our physical energies and to not overtax our systems. Taking slow, deep, conscious breaths, and pausing for reflection, if only for a few moments, will likely hold some regenerative perks for us now, as well as offering us more options or alternatives for our behavior. Often with Moon-Mars, we react instinctively to things, without thinking, and thereby limit our range of choices. The pausing or disengaging, though, helps to widen our perspective because it, for one thing, affords us the chance to mull over or review issues. Also, the act of pausing opens the door for us to reconnect with our sacred intuition, a vehicle of expression from our higher self.

“To keep the body in good health is a duty… otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear.” Buddha

Enjoy your Friday! Would also like to salute and recognize all the veterans today.

Astrology May 17, 2011: Full Moon in “Hidden” Scorpio

“Life has its own hidden forces which you can only discover by living.” Soren Kierkegaard

There’s a Full Moon at 26 degrees of Scorpio today (7:10 am EDT). Briefly, a Full Moon represents a culmination or peaking of awareness. With a Full Moon we are often more privy to revelations, as we have “more light” by which to see things. The volume on our emotional responses (Moon) may also be turned up.

Scorpio, as a quality of experience, is associated with intensity of expression, and also extremes of behavior. It is a more complex sign to figure out. The natural ruler of Scorpio is Pluto, which is known for its’ laser-like focus. When the Moon is in Scorpio, there is a greater depth of feeling and passion to us, and consequently we tend to react more powerfully to matters. Unfortunately, emotional outbursts can also manifest, if we are not careful to rein ourselves in. The Scorpio Moon additionally likes power and to be in charge, which means on the shadow side, we often need to simultaneously subdue our feelings of control or manipulation. Jealousy and possessiveness are also two other issues that many of us characteristically wrestle with when the Moon is deposited here.

Scorpio as a zodiacal sign stands guard over those areas of life that are normally hidden from view, such as our mind’s subconscious. It also governs intimacy and sex, or what is often expressed privately “behind closed doors.” Scorpio, as the opposite sign to money and possession Taurus, additionally depicts our attitudes concerning the sharing of our material resources with others, and is related to such mundane things as joint bank accounts and jointly-held possessions.

Since Scorpio presides over death (or the dissolution of form) and rebirth, it is also connected to insurance and estate matters. It also rules taxes, surgery, and regenerative healing techniques. Scorpio is furthermore linked to psychic development, channeling, and the spirit world, and to metaphysical matters in general. Its intrinsic approach is always to “go deep” and ponder mysteries wherever they may be found.

With the Full Moon falling in Scorpio, it could be that some or many of the areas above may be more highlighted now. We are also more likely to be in touch with our deepest, most passionate desires (Scorpio) or innermost feelings at this time. We may also have to address issues from our buried past (with Scorpio they often suddenly rise to the surface). Or possibly face the truth about things that we have been avoiding. Again, too, the Scorpio Full Moon can easily solicit overreactions from us, especially if we are not mindful of our behavior.

Too, the Full Moon now could mark transitions or endings, or pivotal turning points (Scorpio). This Scorpio Full Moon is also making a challenging square to vague, dissolving Neptune in surrendering Pisces. It is additionally forming a tight quinqunx (adjustment aspect) to excessive, boastful Jupiter in impulsive Aries (sign of the military), cautioning us not to go overboard or gamble unwisely with our resources. Also, with Neptune’s “veiled ray” on the scene, we may need to guard against being hoodwinked or misled by others. We also would be wise, ourselves, to avoid doing anything that is nefarious or deceitful. Sometimes, too, with Neptune, we unwittingly lead others on by not being in full possession of all the facts. We simply spew out misinformation or just perceive things in a distorted way.

On a more positive note, this lunation still finds Mercury (thoughts) and Venus (beauty and love) side by side in gentle, laid-back Taurus, a very creative sign, and both in a harmonious, compassionate sextile to imaginative Neptune. Taking the time to put into words, our deep love and affection for each other, and engaging in random acts of love and kindness (Neptune), can have very uplifting consequences for all of us now. Also, this aspect is excellent for creating or purchasing art or other objects of beauty, including adding a few “to die for” items to our wardrobe. Too, with the rejuvenating properties of the Scorpio Moon also involved, now would be an ideal time for age-defying beauty treatments or makeovers. Neptune also rules cosmetics, and all manner of masquerade and disguises. It is interesting, too, how when we do alter our outward appearance, we often are related to differently.  In other words, it sets the stage for transforming responses from others.

“Men and women belong to different species, and communication between them is a science still in its infancy.” Bill Cosby 🙂

BTW, I read the other day that Oprah Winfrey (who has facilitated many personal makeovers through her show) plans to tape her talks shows for airing May 23rd and May 24th, on May 17th, at a special arena in Chicago, which will be able to hold over 20,000 of her fans. As an astrologer, of course, I immediately thought about the intensely emotional Scorpio Full Moon in affect and its fitting tie-in with poignant, transforming events, including farewells (endings). Too, with Mercury conjunct Venus in Taurus sextile idealistic, otherworldly Neptune (Neptune also rules the television camera), no doubt that Oprah will be magically “feeling the love” then from her audience and also the camera will be able to masterfully capturing the surreal (Neptune) images of this singular event.

As most of us know who faithfully watch Oprah, she is signing off with her daily syndicated talk show on May 25th, after being on the air for 25 years. She will still be actively involved with broadcasting, however, running her OWN network. Oprah has “Karma Lord” Saturn in Libra transiting at the very top of her chart now, near her tenth house of career. Often a time when one’s highest professional achievement is recorded.

Too, on May 25th, again the last day for the Oprah Show, the Sun will also fascinatingly be in communications Gemini and exactly sextile to futuristic Uranus in new beginnings Aries, signaling that some “big change is in the air.” Uranus also rules television broadcasting. The Sun-Uranus aspect also tends to coincide with more “unusual” or “out of the ordinary” (Uranus) events, and May 25th will, no doubt, go down in broadcast history as the day Oprah officially ended her talk show.  The Moon will also be in reflective, sentimental Pisces that day. We wish Oprah all the best, but at the same time, we will miss her daily show. Afternoons will no longer be the same without her beaming, re-assuring presence lighting up the television screen.

COSMIC WEATHER:

“To climb steep hills requires slow pace at first.” William Shakespeare

We are looking at, essentially, two days rolled into one today, as we have the slower-paced, void-of-course “money-hungry” Taurus Moon, in the morning, and then the faster-paced, Gemini Moon in the afternoon (1:09 pm EDT). It probably serves us well to sort of chill out during the a.m. hours (attend to mainly routine matters), and then crank things up a bit later, when the Moon enters nervous, restless Gemini, the sign of communication and travel.

Too, one “cosmic weather advisory” here: When the Moon first prances into fast-talker Gemini, it immediately forms a hippie square to psychedelic Neptune (2:30 pm EDT), holed up in “why can’t we all just get along” Pisces. On the plus side, the Moon-Neptune square can fill us with inspiration and imagination, and maybe compassion (is also an excellent time for meditation and prayer). But, on the shadow side, it can also bring about some weird stuff, too, such as crackpot visions, delusions of grandeur, massive denial, con-men entering into our orbit, etc. In general, a very good chance for temporary “mass confusion,” including massive difficulty in correctly picking the winning lotto numbers for tonight’s drawing. 🙂

However, the Neptunian veil does eventually lift and the stage is then set for some really cool scenarios to occur with the Moon’s sextile to progressive, “electrifying” Uranus in “race car” Aries (6:49 pm EDT), when we may be emotionally stimulated to the max and thrilled by the sudden (Uranus) turn of events. It is also a great time to take unique action that defines us and sets us apart as an individual (Uranus). Uranus governs our “urge for individuality.” Also, our “urge for personal freedom.”

BTW, President Barack Obama (a Leo Sun) has his natal Mercury at 2 degrees of Leo (Mercury rules the mind and decisions) and his natal Moon at 3 degrees of Gemini, just like the Moon today (Moon rules moods and public image), so “liberating” Uranus in militaristic Aries is exactly harmoniously trining his Mercury now, and also favorably sextiling his Moon. “Mercury-Uranus” often inclines us to make decisions that are perhaps bolder and, more controversial or rebellious in nature (Uranus), that may also break with tradition (Uranus), or are unprecedented. Uranus can also endow us with brilliant insights, when paired with “thinker” Mercury, as Uranus is the planet that is linked with genius, innovation, and scientific discovery. Uranus is also the “higher octave” of Mercury, and also governs flashes of intuition.

President Obama’s bold decision (Mercury), reportedly made last Friday, to raid Osama Bin Laden‘s compound (combative Aries action), was a sudden “game-changer” and “defining moment” (Uranus) for his presidency, and for the overall, general perception (Moon-Uranus) of his presidency. Too, that is how unpredictable Uranus tends to operate, when its ray is stoked. It strikes with a characteristic swiftness, and its impact can then often change the trajectory of future events forever. It has been symbolically likened to a “bolt of lightning” coming out of the blue.

Obama also simultaneously has transiting Pluto, symbolizing rebirth, trining his natal Pluto now, another long-term aspect which can also mark a time of major transformation. Also that same aspect can be a “test of one’s power” (Pluto), a test of how one wields influence and control (Pluto) in the world. Pluto also governs and depicts the masses, and events that impact the mass population. Of course, he also made his decision when the Sun was exactly trine Pluto, in the sky, on Friday, and Mars was conjunct Jupiter in Aries, an aspect of adventure.

Also, as I am writing this, a “New York Times/CBS News” poll has just been released showing a big rise in Obama’s poll numbers, among both Republicans and Independents, in wake of the killing of Osama Bin Laden. According to the poll, 57% approve of his job performance, compared to 46% last month. Although, 6 in 10 Americans polled felt that bin Laden’s death was likely to increase the threat of terrorism against the U.S. in the short-term. Let’s pray the latter, is not the case.

Famous Taurus Birthdays May 4: Randy Travis (52), late Audrey Hepburn (82)

Enjoy your day! Dare to be different (Moon-Uranus)! But, do be careful about imbibing too much of the Kool-Aid (Moon-Neptune) around mid-day. 🙂

COSMIC WEATHER:

“Bad human communication leaves us less room to grow.” Rowan D. Williams

The pace of life notably quickens today as the Moon vacates steady Taurus for restless Gemini (7:22 am EDT), the chatty sign of communication. A time when we are more apt to want to articulate our feelings (Moon) and to also want to make “small talk,” and to kid around. The Gemini Moon is normally a period when we heartily enjoy sharing our ready stash of “one-liners.”

(Here’s one: “The man bought his wife a water bed. She calls it the “‘Dead Sea!'”)

As soon as the Moon enters Gemini, she forms a tight square to psychedelic Neptune in dreamy Pisces (7:32 am EDT), so it could be that our early morning communications are a little “spacey,” or somewhat weird or distorted (more chance of some confusion). Although Moon-Neptune does turn the volume up really high on our creative imagination and pleasure-laden fantasies. Soon afterward we also have a chance to showcase our originality, even our genius, when Luna makes an opportunity sextile to liberating, inventive Uranus in adventurous Aries (10:19 am EDT).

Another lunar highlight of the day is the Moon’s buoyant sextile to energizer Mars in Aries (3:56 pm EDT), a time when we will want to be fully engaging both our minds (Gemini) and our bodies (Aries) in things we enjoy. The Moon-Mars link also incites our competitive instincts.

Additionally, we have relationship Venus in idealistic, caring Pisces forming an awkward 150-degree aspect (quinqunx) to hard-liner Saturn in Venus-ruled matrimonial Libra. It could be that we are feeling somewhat uncomfortable or victimized (Pisces) by the demands (Saturn) that others (Libra) are placing on us now. We may need to reach some kind of compromise to preserve the peace (Libra).

Interestingly enough, the “compromising” sign of Libra also rules the U.S. Congress and today things are down to the wire with respect to needing to reach some kind of agreement regarding the federal budget, otherwise ‘nonessential” services of the U.S. govt will be shutting down. Of course, too, Pluto (ruling debt) is getting ready to station retrograde in governmental Capricorn (exact early Saturday EDT), another force at play here. We are also being fed media reports on how a “scaled-down” (purging Pluto) U.S. government would operate. On the other hand, with Sun conjunct “feel good” Jupiter yesterday, the U.S. stock market reached a two-year high. Go figure.

Famous Birthdays April 7: David Frost (72), James Garner (83). This astrologer has had a major, life-long crush on James Garner. It started when I was a child and used to watch him in the hit TV series “Maverick.” Then, later, I watched him in the “Rockford Files.” I always wanted to meet a man like James, but never did. BTW, James Garner was born with the Sun exactly conjunct Jupiter in Aries, the same expansive aspect that we just had yesterday and that I also blogged about. Can’t believe it, James is 83! Hope it’s a good one, Jim. Love ya!
