“Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less.”  – Marie Curie

A Full Moon / Lunar Eclipse in truth-seeking Sagittarius today (7:12 am) is a chance for us to experience what it is that we “know for sure” about our lives. It is an opportunity to sit with what “rings true for us” in the trusty chambers of our heart.

With “action-oriented” Mars squaring this super-charged lunation we may also feel called upon to put our “truth into motion” now. We may feel compelled to take a bold stand for whatever it is that we believe in. Since Mars is also in “workable, analytical” Virgo, we may be needing to get “very real” with our beliefs and see how they can practically support us in our daily lives. Mars in Virgo is excellent energy for holding us accountable in this regard. It is also helpful in our being able to discern whatever is wobbly or dubious around us.

A possible caution for us here may be to make sure that we do not ride roughshod over others’ beliefs or philosophies now, assuming arrogantly or naively that we have a sole monopoly on the truth. “The more I see, the less I know for sure.” – John Lennon

Too, what we may find, in the coming days ahead, a la the keen, discriminating awareness of the Virgo Mars and also expansive Jupiter, still in “pragmatic, earthy” Taurus (Jupiter rules Sagittarius), is that some of the things we thought for sure would fly, may only still be elusive pipe-dreams, at this point. Indication that we may need to patiently revisit, once more, that glorious, illustrious drawing board to see how we can ingeniously reposition the wings on our ideas, so that they will finally be able to miraculously take flight and serve us heroically along the course of our spirit’s complicated journey through the earth plane. Full Moons allow us to eloquently empty ourselves of whatever is expired, flimsy, or no longer needed by us, for whatever reason.

Mystical Neptune is also stationing retrograde today in contemplative Pisces (5:03 pm), suggesting that we must also be willing to look inside for the answers; be willing to still ourselves long enough so that we may clearly hear the angelic voice of our intuition whispering to us via the gentle ripples dancing across our soulful waters. Our night dreams (which Neptune additionally rules) may also be very revealing for us now and may also help to point us in the direction that we are supposed to be going in now as part of our soul’s unique evolution.

“I find out a lot about myself by sleeping. Dreams, they are who I am when I’m too tired to be me.” Jarod Kintz.

Neptune will remain in retrograde motion until November 10.

Love Goddess Venus is also gearing up for a very rare eclipse of her own tomorrow, as she dares to boldly display her seductive brand of soothing feminine charms and dart across the face of the empowering Sun (our soul’s purpose). Venus perhaps reminding us here to let the connecting power of love, that naturally resides in each of us, to let it bravely flow unencumbered from our hearts now, so that it will joyfully light up all of our countenances, and null and void all of the darkness that potentially threatens to overtake us, if we do not persist in finding a way to come together, despite any or all of our perceived differences.

“Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.” – Martin Luther King Jr.

We may want to make special note of where (what houses) the 14 degree Sagittarius-Gemini axis falls in our birth charts, as those are the areas of our life that are being activated now and where we may also be experiencing an “awakening of consciousness” and a “call to action.”

*All times EDT

A Full Moon Eclipse in Sagittarius also helps to energize activities in these specific areas: publishing; philosophy; writing; higher education; religion; politics; the law; advertising and promotion; long-distance travel; and matters pertaining to other cultures.

Interestingly, with this eclipse today we are hearing details of Oprah Winfrey’s brand new “interactive book club,” which should, no doubt, be very welcome news for the publishing industry and also for fans of Oprah’s who are readers. Today’s eclipse is falling in Oprah’s 12th house of reflection and transcendence, and it is exactly opposite her natal Jupiter in communicator Gemini in her sixth house of work and service. Jupiter is the ruler of Sagittarius and is also the planet that governs teaching and publishing. Oprah, an Aquarian Sun, also has her lovable Venus exactly conjunct the Sun, like we have now. Her natal Moon is also in Sagittarius and she has a late degree Sagittarius rising. A natural teacher. Oprah has announced that her first book for the new club will be Cheryl Stayed’s Wild. We wish Oprah much luck with this latest endeavor, not that she probably needs it.

***

Happy Eclipse blessings to you!

Astrology April 13, 2011: “The Sky’s The Limit” Six Planets in Fire Element

13 Wednesday Apr 2011

COSMIC WEATHER:

“As long as you are going to be thinking anyway, think big.” Donald Trump

With the emotional Moon in glamorous, “larger than life” Leo today and five planets in enthusiastic, “originating” Aries, we have a total of six planets in the active fire element now, which is a lot of “inspiring” energy at our disposal.  Mental Mercury (retrograde), governing our thoughts and ideas, is also still in a two-degree conjunction with expansive Jupiter, which again encourages us to “think big.”

The  proud, creative Leo Moon is also making positive, dynamic aspects to both the Sun (spirit) and Jupiter (growth) in Aries. So this is definitely a day when we have cosmic clearance to go at things “full throttle.” (Of course, we may also need to do some “revising,” later, with Mercury still retrograde.)

BTW, billionaire Donald Trump, quoted above (b. 6/14/46), has a 29 degree, “authoritative, take-charge” Leo Rising or Ascendant (the Asc. is how others view us and it also governs physical appearance and Donald, of course, has the “big” Leo hair). Donald’s energizing Mars at 26 degrees Leo powerfully conjuncts his Rising. Mars in Leo on the Ascendant is a very strong “executive” placement. Mars, ruling the aggressive urge, is also the natural ruler of  Aries, so we see a real “Aries flavor” to Donald even though he does not have any planets in Aries. The “‘Martian” Aries-type energy, too, is very conquest-oriented and driven (again this is the kind of energy that we currently have beaming impacting us with the lineup in Aries).

The Leo rising also helps to endow Donald with great self-confidence and a deep sense of his own power (Leo i.e. “lion of the jungle”). Too, his chart reveals a tendency to be a big thinker, by nature, with “gargantuan” Jupiter conjunct his third house of the mind in intellectual Libra (also this placement makes him love beautiful things). This 3rd house placement of Jupiter is also similar is nature to the “Mercury conjunct Jupiter” aspect that we currently have today.

Donald’s Jupiter is also harmoniously trined to both his Sun and Uranus, which are conjunct in versatile Gemini in his career house, which makes him more entrepreneurial, promotion-minded (esp. in sales-oriented Gemini), as well as highly original, particularly with respect to his professional pursuits. The Sun-Uranus aspect can also give him a predilection to side with the underdog at times. He is also not afraid to defy convention (Uranus) in his quest to live authentically (Charlie Sheen also has Sun conjunct Uranus). Sun-Uranus may also incline him (and Charlie) to be more unpredictable at times. The last thing, too, that Sun-Uranus wants to be is “homogenized.” Additionally, Donald’s Moon is in visionary, Jupiter-ruled Sagittarius (like Oprah Winfrey).

Of course, the big question regarding Donald Trump now, is whether he is going to run for U.S. President? While astrology is not fortune-telling and it doesn’t predict the future, curiously, Jupiter, the planet of politics, will be in his 10th house of career in 2012. He also has reportedly said that he would decide the matter, this June, his birthday month, a time when pioneering Mars will be entering his career house (it enters it mid-June). Mars through the tenth house can be a highly ambitious time, and a time for “new professional starts.” The plot thickens!

Would you vote for Donald Trump for President? Yes? No? What about if he got a different-style haircut? Did away with that big Leo hair? Would that affect your decision any? 🙂 I personally like Donald because he is different and charismatic. His Mars is also exactly conjunct my 26 degree Moon in Leo, so emotionally he tends to energize me. My late husband’s Mars was, ironically, the same degree as Donald’s. But unfortunately for me he didn’t have Donald’s kind of money. (: Although, my husband did have me, so I guess he was “wealthy” in some respects. 🙂

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 in her personal horoscope.)

We need to make sure, however, that we don’t overtax ourselves or surpass our limits with this influence. 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 actor James Garner.

“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 one of the news headlines this morning is about President Obama’s 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).
