Cosmic Weather:

“It is not the failure that holds us back but the reluctance to begin over again that causes us to stagnate.” Clarissa Pinkola Estes

We have a New Moon in ‘initiating’ Aries today (4:50 am). It’s also the first New Moon of the astrological new year, which occurred when the Sun entered the sign of Aries at the Spring (Northern) equinox.

The New Moon in Aries is always a time for us to embark on personal new beginnings. The keywords for Aries are: I am. So we’re recognizing or affirming our very existence now by putting things into motion. By taking action. By creating. We’ll also want to pay attention to the house in our natal chart in which this New Moon is occurring as that is the area of our life in which these new activities will be getting underway.

This is also an excellent time for us to incorporate some of the qualities of Aries, such as independence, adventurousness, and fearlessness. Also, for learning how to take the initiative in matters as well as for developing a strong belief in ourselves.

Aspect-wise, today’s New Moon is square to Saturn, Pluto, and the South Node in Capricorn. Suggesting that it’s very important now to be very focused and grounded (Saturn) in our actions; assertive, but not pushy (Pluto); and responsive, instead of reactive (South Node).

“When it’s obvious that the goals cannot be reached, don’t adjust the goals, adjust the action steps.” Confucius

*All times EDT

On This Day in History: On April 5, 1923 Firestone Tire and Rubber Company starts producing inflatable tires.

Astrologically, that day, there was a grand fire trine involving the Sun, Mercury, and Chiron in pioneering Aries; visionary Neptune in leadership Leo; and the Moon in futuristic Sagittarius. Jupiter was also retrograde in resourceful, transformative Scorpio and trining Uranus, the planet of invention and technology, in imaginative Pisces.

Famous April 5 Birthdays: Booker T. Washington, Spencer Tracy, Bette Davis, Gregory Peck, Colin Powell, Pharrel Williams

“Success is not to be measured so much by the status one has attained in life but rather by the obstacles one has overcome while trying to succeed.” Booker T. Washington.

Booker T. Washington, an American educator who was born into slavery (b. 4/5/1856), was also born right after a New Moon in Aries, just like we have today. He had his Sun and Moon conjunct in pioneering Aries, along with four planets conjunct in compassionate Pisces – Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, and Neptune. (Today we also have Mercury, Venus, and Neptune conjunct in Pisces!)  His Pisces planets were also all square to teacher, obstacle-ruler Saturn in thinker, information imparter Gemini.

Happy New Moon Blessings!

Cosmic Weather:

“Never complain of that of which it is at all times in your power to rid yourself.” Adam Smith

The Moon spends another full day in active Aries, this Saturday, so anything that has a physical element to it gets a nod, if you’re up to it, that is. Also, this morning is an excellent time for any decluttering or refurbishing projects, especially on the homefront, as the Aries Moon is forming a square to eliminating and rebirthing Pluto (11:56 am).

On a personal note, the other day while I was cleaning out a small storage cabinet that I hadn’t looked inside for ages, I found several brand new items that I had no memory of ever buying. It was a little bit like embarking upon the thrill of the hunt! Unfortunately, though, I didn’t locate any misplaced, winning lotto tickets. 🙂 You sometimes hear about people doing that. Finding a ticket worth millions of dollars underneath an old girdle in a drawer. Or maybe under a pair of holey socks. You also gotta’ wonder, if you’re into astrology, what in the world did they have in their horoscope at the time they discovered the ticket? Maybe an aspect to Pluto? Pluto is associated with hidden treasure and excavation. Then, too, when you pair Pluto with Jupiter, that’s often when you stumble upon real mega-wealth!

Now, as fate would have it, would you believe that the Moon’s last major aspect in Aries today, before going void, is actually a trine to lucky Jupiter in Sagittarius ( 12:14 pm)? Could it be that we’re all on the edge of victory here??? That all we need to do is summon our inner Sherlock Holmes and, instead of heading for the hills, head for the drawers? As corny as that sounds.

The darn thing has gotta’ be around here somewhere! … 🙂

*All times EST

This Day in History: On March 9, 1776, the influential economics book “The Wealth of Nations” by Scottish economist and moral philosopher, Adam Smith, was published. This classic book offers, among other things, one of the world’s first collected descriptions of what builds nations’ wealth (Wikipedia).

In the sky on the date of the book’s publication, analytical Mercury was retrograde in creative Pisces (just like it is now) and had just separated from an exact square to philosophical Jupiter in information-oriented Gemini, a sign which is also ruled by Mercury. Mercury and Jupiter, of course, both govern our writing, thoughts, and ideas. Too, when these two planets are paired together is when you often will find more voluminous or comprehensive types of writing on a subject. Additionally, Jupiter is also the “wealth” planet and rules the world’s financial systems.

“Man is an animal that makes bargains: no other animal does this – no dog exchanges bones with another.”  Adam Smith

Hope you enjoy your Saturday! Happy hunting!

Astrology September 28 2015: The Post-Eclipse Moon in Aries

28 Monday Sep 2015

“You do not need to know precisely what is happening, or exactly where it is all going. What you need is to recognize the possibilities and challenges offered by the present moment, and to embrace them with courage, faith and hope.” Thomas Merton

Lines, Background, Fireworks, Star

Today’s Energy:

While most of us do require a fair amount of certainty in our lives – if only to root us more firmly in the ground – the notion of fresh, new, creative possibilities swirling around us can also be something that is very sustaining, if not mandatory, for our spirit to feel more fully alive. It’s like once we identify a target to aim for, something inside ourselves immediately starts to spring into action, and in this process, we can become instantly energized and transformed, even though we know that we probably still have a long way to go before we reach our destination.

Today’s cosmic lineup really has that kind of burgeoning flavor about it with the waning “adventurous” Aries Moon, still in its Full phase, and coming off of a rare, galvanizing lunar eclipse. Too, eclipses can often bring us the answers or confirmation that we’ve been seeking for our lives, which can be very energizing in itself. As mentioned in yesterday’s blog post, last night’s eclipse may especially shed insights on how to better navigate our relationships while also teaching us about how to be truer to ourselves.

The Moon’s square to transforming Pluto today (11:56 am) also helps us with some detox efforts – if we’re so inclined to go in that direction – and we may very well want to seriously consider that option now, so we can move about a whole lot lighter and more contentedly in our being. Of course, it’s up to each one of us to decide what might constitute “purification” for our soul, at the moment. It could be, for instance, something as simple as deleting backlogged email messages – which is something that I finally did the other day and felt so much better about. In my case, though, this wasn’t really a simple task as I purged over 800 emails!

Then, later on tonight, it’s back to full-speed, razzle dazzle when Luna meets up with spontaneous, non-conforming Uranus (9:30 pm), which is an opportunity for us, among other things, to break out of our mold and do something maybe quirky just for fun.

*All times EDT.

Questions for Today: What is the most “off the wall” thing that you could do that really appeals to you? What do you want others to give you, and what are you prepared to do for them, in return? If you could be known for just one thing in your lifetime, what would that be?

In the News: NASA officials say liquid water flows on Mars, boosting hopes for life there (CNN.com). Too, don’t you just love the synchronicity here with this announcement coming on the heels the Mars-ruled Aries Eclipse, with “pioneering” Aries often associated with significant breakthroughs or discoveries?

Famous September 28 Birthdays: Naomi Watts, Ben E. King, Brigitte Bardot, Pedro Fernandez, Ed Sullivan.

“If you do a good job for others, you heal yourself at the same time, because a dose of joy is a spiritual cure. It transcends all barriers.” Ed Sullivan

Enjoy your Monday!

Astrology June 25, 2015: Moon is in Libra, Cosmic Quote of the Day

Galaxy Nebula

(Today’s Planetary Aspects: The Moon in social Libra trines curious Mercury, squares controlling Pluto, sextiles lovable Venus, opposes rules breaker Uranus, and sextiles philosophical Jupiter. The Moon is Void of Course at 7:22 pm until 1:57 pm on Friday when it enters investigative Scorpio. All times posted are for EDT.)

Cosmic Quote of the Day: “Nothing is ever lost by courtesy. It is the cheapest of pleasures, costs nothing, and conveys much.” Erastus Wiman

Polite behavior is something that most of us appreciate. It is a universal way to quickly convey respect for a person. Studies have also shown that politeness helps to put people at ease, which can go a long way in fostering strong relationships. Today’s gracious Moon in Libra naturally affords us a chance to put on our goodwill ambassador hat, although we may still face a couple diplomatic hurdles along the way via Luna’s square to intense Pluto (7:07 am), which can bring sudden urges to the forefront. Also, the Moon opposes erratic Uranus around the dinner hour (6:20 pm), a time when it might be wise to cut others more slack to do their own thing.

The Moon’s last aspect of the day, a warm sextile to generous Jupiter in Leo (7:22 pm), potentially helps spawn a desire to want to attend to the welfare or betterment of others. It can also put us in a relaxing mood in which we want to seek out fun and pleasurable activities, such as going to a night club, or maybe taking in a movie. Too, it’s a positive period for dealing with women. Additionally, our ability to be persuasive with others, is also enhanced.

Famous June 25 Birthdays: George Michael, Ricky Gervais, June Lockhart, Carly Simon, Sonia Sotomayor.

“I always think it’s interesting to dig a little deeper every time you go to someplace that seems like a revelation or a strong connection to an emotional truth.” Carly Simon

Enjoy your Thursday!

Astrology February 28, 2015: Sentimental Cancer Moon Aligns with Uranus and Pluto

“That’s what people do who love you. They put their arms around you and love you when you’re not so lovable.” Deb Caletti

COSMIC WATCH:

Blackbird Chicks In Nest

The Moon remains in “nesting” Cancer, all day. Knowing that we have a “place to call home,” and people around us who “have our back,” no matter what, is especially comforting for us now. This lunar position can also invoke our patriotism, or allegiance to our tribe – the “first chakra” issues.  The Moon goes void-of-course in Cancer at 12:53 pm, and will remain so until it shifts into “self-expressive” Leo at 6:34 pm, on Sunday.

The Cancer Moon forms a square to “erratic” Uranus, late this morning, at 11:49 am. This could bring about some emotional vacillation, as well as a desire to “bust out of our routines.” We may also need to be flexible with matters on the home front, especially when things do not go as planned. Too, surrendering our expectations for how things are “supposed to be,” and going, instead, with what wants to show up in the moment, can be a very positive way to navigate this period. Uranus symbolizes the unexpected, change, taking new approaches, liberation, radical thinking, people who break or circumvent the rules, astrologers, inventors, electrical activity.

The Moon also forms an opposition to “tell it like it is” Pluto, 12:53 pm. While this more emotionally intense influence can lead us to “the truth,” we may want to refrain now from acting upon any of the burgeoning revelations, until we’ve at least had a chance to sit with them for a while. Kind of like when we take a cake out of the oven, we don’t want to cut it, while it’s still hot. Pluto symbolizes secrets, or what has been hidden, the domain of the subconscious, the basement of a house, plumbing, extremist views, obsessions, grave-diggers, miners, psychotherapists.

“Once you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.” Spock, Star Trek. Rest in peace, Leonard Nimoy. (March 26, 1931 – February 27, 2015)

* All times are EST.

Question for Today: Is there anything you’ve been wanting to say to a family member, but just haven’t said it yet? (This could also include those family members who have transitioned.) If so, what exactly would you like to say?

In the News: With the Moon in “security-driven” Cancer, and forming a fluid trine to “putting aside our differences” Neptune, the U.S. Congress finally passes “Stopgap Funding for Homeland Security,” late last night (wsj.com).

Earlier in the evening, the Cancer Moon was also square to Mars in “initiating” Aries.  Squares are often synonymous with our needing to take prompt action. It is also the nature of “warrior” Mars to act swiftly on matters that are deemed necessary for our survival and well-being. Had Congress not acted on this measure by midnight, funding for Homeland Security was set to expire.

Astrology November 4, 2014: Aries Moon Conjuncts Uranus, Squares Pluto

“Elections belong to the people. It’s their decision. If they decide to turn their back on the fire and burn their behinds, then they will just have to sit on their blisters.” Abraham Lincoln

COSMIC WATCH:

This Election Day finds the Moon in “take charge” Aries, forming an early morning square with “purging” Pluto (9:08 am) and a mid-day conjunction with “rebellious” Uranus (12:29 pm), the planet of change and the unexpected. Also, yesterday’s “transformative” Sun-Pluto sextile, is still in play. All of these aspects seem to be  suggesting that a “revamping” of the political landscape, is in the works. The lunar aspects, today, are also setting into motion the ongoing, longer-term “Uranus-Pluto square,” which will be exact, once more, in early December.

On a personal level, we may be needing to take some kind of action, today, that “frees our spirit.” It would also be good to be involved with a project in which we can place our personal stamp. In general, the Aries Moon tends to make us more fully engaged, in our endeavors, and also more vested in the outcomes. It can also invoke our competitive nature. “You are what you do, not what you say you’ll do.” Carl Jung

* All times are EST.

Question for Today: What would you like to see happen in the world?

Astrology January 14, 2012: Venus Enters Dreamy Pisces

14 Saturday Jan 2012

, , , , , , , , ,

COSMIC  WATCH:

We shift into more of a “we” mindset with the Moon’s descent into relationship Libra (8:29 am EST).  Libra’s ruler, sweet Venus, also dives into the compassionate waters of Pisces today (12:48 am EST) where she will seductively swim until February 8. In dreamy Pisces, Venus helps to wet our appetite for fantasy and “fairy-tale romance,” making us more willing and receptive to the idea of tearing down our crusty relational walls in order to experience a feeling of total oneness or bliss with our beloved. Of course, on the flip side, this desire for a removal of boundaries can also make us more vulnerable emotionally, as our tender root system is exposed.

The “goddess of love and money” is also making a soothing sextile to expansive, philosophical Jupiter, inspiring us to attach a higher meaning or significance to our alliances, while simultaneously stoking our generosity and optimism. In astrology, Venus-Jupiter alignments are considered to be highly fortuitous in nature and can help to deliver to us the abundance we are seeking, either in a real literal sense or on a symbolic level. These two planets together can also heighten our experience of pleasure. On the topic of pleasure, Euripides, the Greek playwright, said, “The greatest pleasure of life is love.” The Irish poet, Oscar Wilde, also stated that, “an inordinate passion for pleasure is the secret of staying young.”

The Moon’s monthly opposition to non-conforming Uranus (10:29 am EST) may additionally signal that we need to take some kind of action today that sets us apart from the crowd and allows us to display our originality and brilliance. Later, the Moon’s square to hidden Pluto (9:50 pm EST) prompts us to “look within” for the answers.

“The peace we need is always present, it’s just that we have forgotten where it is and how to find it.” Clare Wilde

Today’s Affirmation: I am surrounded by love. I am love. I freely give my love.

Astrology October 24, 2011: Moon in Balancing Libra

24 Monday Oct 2011

, , , , , , , ,

COSMIC WATCH:

The Moon’s ingress into diplomatic Libra (11:50 am EDT) usually bodes well for helping us to maintain our poise and calm. Libra is, after all, the sign of balance and the scales.  However, achieving an unruffled demeanor may not necessarily be a cakewalk this afternoon, or this evening, with the Moon’s opposition to erratic, rebellious Uranus (2:12 pm EDT) and controlling Pluto (8:12 pm EDT).  Times when we could easily feel more at odds with others, or suddenly more personally challenged to prove ourselves. Still, in the end, it may be wisest to avoid power skirmishes, altogether, and simply try to find some common ground, if at all possible. That seems to be our big homework assignment for today. I’m also thinking here of that fab morsel of wisdom: Never let them see you sweat! Too, we do now have the Sun, Mercury and Venus in secretive, mysterious Scorpio, so we are very capable of camouflage, or going undercover, when it suits our purpose.

Of course, to add a little tortuous salt into the wound today is Mercury in Scorpio’s stubborn sesquiquadrate aspect to quirky, jittery Uranus in impulsive Aries. This influence is good for throwing us some unexpected, or perplexing, intellectual curve balls. It can also poise us to be a bit hasty and or defiant in our judgment. Again, remaining flexible and focused on our intentions and long-term goals, and not giving in to momentary whims or pressures, seems to be the best way for us to proudly predominate over the rogue cosmic forces. 🙂

“Don’t dwell on what went wrong. Instead, focus on what to do next. Spend your energies moving forward toward finding the answer.” Denis Waitley

Astrology September 13, 2011: Moon Aligns with Uranus and Pluto

13 Tuesday Sep 2011

Posted by in Daily Astrology September 2011

, , , , , , , , ,

COSMIC WEATHER:

The Moon’s ingress into adventurous Aries (2:50 am EDT) encourages us to take on more risk, or at least try some experimentation, especially since the Moon is also conjunct daring, innovative Uranus (9:00 am EDT) a planet known for “breaking the rules” and testing the limits. Accordingly, a good morning to perhaps deviate from our daily routines, or maybe challenge ourselves to fashion new responses as a way of stretching our wings and seeing what’s possible.

The Moon’s potent square to reforming Pluto in Capricorn (12:38 pm EDT) also helps to heighten our awareness while simultaneously powering our emotions. With Moon-Pluto, we tend to feel things more deeply, however, we are also more prone to extreme behavior which could sabotage our own self-interest, if we’re not careful.  Too, we will want to avoid power struggles with this influence and aim for cooperation instead.

Additionally, Moon-Pluto is good for detective work, especially since we also have intellectual Mercury still trining Pluto which can make us aware of hidden elements. Moon-Pluto is also perfect for pruning away or recycling whatever is no longer needed (including undesirable habits), or for busying ourselves with refurbishing projects.

“Nature often holds up a mirror so we can see more clearly the processes of growth, renewal and transformation in our lives.”  Unknown source.

Enjoy your Tuesday!

Astrology July 20, 2011: Moon in “Checkered Flag” Aries

20 Wednesday Jul 2011

COSMIC WATCH:

“Adventure is not outside man; it is within.” George Eliot

The Moon’s ingress into “checkered flag” Aries (12:26 pm EDT) gets our engines started and propels us to seek out new adventures. Too, the Aries Moon has her monthly meet-up with “unexpected” Uranus today (9:31 pm EDT), normally a time when we are able to load up on new experiences. Uranus tends to work its magic for us as a harbinger of change. He also gets us ingeniously thinking outside the box.

The Moon in Aries also squares “stealth” Pluto in Capricorn (11:46 pm EDT). A time when we may choose to go undercover. Pluto governs hidden realms, including our subconscious. Too, while we like to think that we’re consciously controlling our behavior, many psychologists say that most of the time, our behavior is dictated by our subconscious. No doubt, this theory is also “music to Pluto’s ears,” who delights in surreptitiously pulling our strings. 🙂

“Never tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise you with their ingenuity.” George Patton

People with Moon in Aries: Sarah Ferguson, Jennifer Lopez

Celebrity Update: Unconfirmed reports are swirling around today that former Beatle, Paul McCartney (a Gemini), is poised to walk down the aisle for a third time in London. His bride-to-be is American divorcee, Nancy Shevell, who is Barbara Walters’ second cousin. The two have reportedly dated for four years.

Paul has “change-agent” Uranus, in “new beginnings” Aries, moving through his seventh house of marriage now and exactly trining his “transforming” Pluto in “romantic” Leo in his 11th house of hopes and wishes. I get the sense of some positive, life-changing karma playing out for Paul here. How about you? Unfortunately, I don’t have Nancy’s chart.

One other cool note about Paul’s chart: He natally has loving and creative Venus, in faithful Taurus, exactly conjunct his 9th house of writing. This has to be a big boon for him in his song-writing ability, especially his talent for writing “silly love songs.” Venus not only rules romance, but it also shows what we love to do. I’m not even sure how many songs Paul has written, but it has to number into the hundreds. Too, Venus in Taurus often coincides with marked talent for art or music.
