Cosmic Weather:

“Your assumptions are your windows on the world. Scrub them off every once in a while, or the light won’t come in.” Isaac Asimov

Intellectual Mercury trining optimistic Jupiter today (at 10:36 am) can ideally serve to broaden our perspectives as we are potentially more receptive at this time to sampling new information or at least toying around with new ideas, as expansive Jupiter symbolizes our ongoing search for higher meaning and purpose. Too, with Mercury still deposited in down-to-earth Taurus and Jupiter ensconced in professionally ambitious Capricorn, we may be particularly interested now in scoping out fresh ways to solidify our footing in the material world. Generally, Mercury-Jupiter is also excellent for all types of discussions or for drafting agreements or contracts, especially since there is normally more of a willingness now to bend or give a little in order to make things work.

The illuminating Sun in Taurus is also sextiling transcendent Neptune in Pisces, this afternoon (at 12:16 pm). This is a more subtle aspect that can nudge us to move beyond the realm of our everyday ego concerns or the mundane, to seek out something that speaks to the needs of our Soul or Spirit. It is an energy associated with such things as compassion, acts of kindness, and charitable giving. Archetypally, Neptune, known as the Great Dissolver, aims to unify or to remove the perceived boundaries or barriers that exist between us. Also, perhaps, a real-world example of Neptune’s influence: Two days ago, on May 8th, was the 75th anniversary of V-E Day, marking the unconditional surrender of Nazi Germany to the Allied forces, ending World War II in Europe. Now, if we go back in time to see what was occurring astrologically on May 8, 1945, we find that assertive Mars in Aries (which rules war and the military) was exactly opposite Neptune, which was also in the diplomatic sign of Libra. Neptune here presumably helping to dissolve/defuse/dismantle the Martian aggression urge, ultimately paving the way for the prospect of peace again. Neptune is often a dominant factor in peace agreements or acts of surrender.

“Letting go gives us freedom, and freedom is the only condition for happiness. If, in our heart, we still cling to anything – anger, anxiety, or possessions – we cannot be free.” Thich Nhat Hanh

Cosmic Weather:

“Learning to distance yourself from all the negativity is one of the greatest lessons to achieve inner peace.” Roy T. Bennet

It may be easier for us to connect more naturally or effortlessly with our intuition or our sense of “inner knowingness” today. We are also possibly more receptive or willing to resolving difficulties by employing more peaceful or unifying methods, perhaps partially out of an inherent desire to want to see things in the best possible light. This is also an excellent day for engaging in creative tasks or for using our imagination. (Mercury in Capricorn sextiles Neptune in Pisces.)

Additionally, there may be a desire to want to release or let go of old beliefs, philosophies, or practices that are no longer serving us. We may also gain greater clarity or illumination now on why things may have had to be a certain way in the past. (Jupiter in Capricorn conjuncts the South Node in Capricorn.)

*All times EST

Tarot Card for the Day: Is “The Moon” card, which suggests that hidden or subconscious motivations may be brought to the forefront now. It may also potentially be more challenging for us to see where dreams or fantasies end and where reality begins, especially in situations in which our emotions are more fully or actively engaged.

Numerology: Today (January 8) is an “eight” day denoting a great deal of intense or concentrated energy. Often there are lessons pertaining to the usage of power with this number.

Born on This Day: Singer and entertainer Elvis Presley, who would have been 85 years old today. Elvis once said: Ambition is a dream with a V8 engine.

Hope it’s a good one!

Cosmic Weather:

“The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.” – Eleanor Roosevelt

We start out our ‘oh so jolly’ Monday with a waning trine between the Moon in adventurous Sagittarius and the Sun in initiating Aries (10:30 am), an ideal time, perhaps, for broadening the scope of our lives, stretching our limits. Maybe also for doing a little preaching, teaching, or possibly even performing a few, full-scale conversions, if we’re up to it, that is, depending upon our personal opportunities, inclinations, and or schedules. Keeping in mind, too, of course, that logical, analytical Mercury is still a bit fuzzy around the eyeballs because of its continuing hookup with nebulous, intoxicated Neptune. In other words, it seems we possibly may have the big picture covered, for today, at least, with the visionary Sadge Moon. But, it’s those annoying little details that could possibly mess us up, along the way. What do they say, too, that the devil’s in the details? Yup.

Too, with Mercury covering speech, we may want to be very discreet with respect to what we say in the confessional, and to whom, as we could be easily misunderstood and possibly end up with having to do more penance than is called for or deserved. Just sayin’…Trying to keep all the purgatorial sentences light around here. 🙂

On This Day in History: On March 25, 1969, John Lennon and Yoko Ono stage their first ‘bed-in for peace’ in Amersterdam. Astrologically, in the sky, that day, the Aries Sun was separating from a conjunction with Chiron in pioneering Aries, which is something that we also just had, a few days ago. The Sun and Chiron were also opposite both philosophical Jupiter and radical, anti-establishment Uranus. Both Jupiter and Uranus were conjunct in Libra, the sign of peace, harmony, and relationships. Fascinatingly, lovable Venus (retrograde) and manifesting Saturn were also both exactly conjunct in bold, spirited Aries, that day. The Moon was also waxing in playful, communicative Gemini. John Lennon (b. 10/9/40) also had, in his chart, the transiting Chiron in Aries exactly opposite his natal, assertive, sexual Mars in matrimonial Libra. The transiting Aries Sun was also exactly trine Lennon’s natal, transformational Pluto in theatrical, exhibitionist Leo.

“If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there’d be peace.” John Lennon

Astrology for July 28, 2015: The Moon Trines Jupiter and Venus

When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.” Rumi

The Moon wraps up her stay in inquisitive Sagittarius with a flowing trine to benevolent, philosophical Jupiter in exuberant Leo (9:37 am). A wonderful opportunity for us to spread a touch of joy and goodwill around. Mark Twain once noted that “to get the full value of joy you must have someone to divide it with.” A warm, positive sentiment that is really a perfect fit, too, for this more upbeat Moon-Jupiter energy, which naturally serves to activate our “inner philanthropist”; also, our “inner Santa.” Psychology experts also say that we tend to feel better about ourselves when we are involved in activities in which we feel we’re making a contribution to the welfare of others – versus simply occupying ourselves with more self-serving kinds of endeavors. Moon-Jupiter aspects can also make us more aware of the legacy we’re leaving behind.

The Moon enters productive Capricorn, mid-afternoon (2:47 pm), harmoniously trining affectionate Venus in Virgo (3:44 pm). This cordial aspect should also help to put us in a more cooperative, easygoing spirit, particularly in the workplace (Virgo). It’s also a time when we can more effortlessly build upon our successes, as we seem to be able to more adeptly gauge exactly what our next steps should be to move ourselves forward now, with the Capricorn Moon innately having an affinity or talent for extracting from our past, whatever is most useful for us to know or entertain in the present moment. Others are also more apt or willing to help us achieve our goals now, especially when we approach them in a more pleasant, agreeable (Venusian) manner.

* All times EDT.

Astrology July 13, 2015: Mercury Trine Neptune

“The very least you can do in your life is figure out what you hope for. And the most you can do is live inside that hope. Not admire it from a distance but live right in it, under its roof.” Barbara Kingsolver

Communications flow more seamlessly today, and are steeped with inspiration, as articulate Mercury trines idealistic Neptune, an aspect that also aligns us with our long-term vision and the hopes that we hold for our life, as well as for the people that we love. There’s also more of a willingness and ability now, to step inside another person’s shoes, and see what that person is thinking and feeling – something which can also lead to a deeper sense of connection and trust between people.  The late Stephen R. Covey referred to trust as the “glue of life,” and said that it was the “foundational principle that holds all relationships.”

Because Mercury also rules contracts, when it’s aligned with the more surrendering, diffusive, unifying Neptunian energy, we also see, sometimes, more of an inclination to sign, or at least negotiate, peace treaties, or other similar kinds of agreements. Too, Mercury-Neptune carries a strong creative component, making it an ideal time to work on projects that require the use of our imagination or envisioning skills.

The waning Crescent Moon also remains in curious, breezy Gemini, all day, making harmonious aspects to Uranus (originality), 8:50 am, Jupiter (optimism), 3:21 pm, and Venus (love and our power attraction), 11:31 pm.

*All times EDT.

Famous People with Mercury Trine Neptune: Meryl Streep, Mia Farrow, Michael J. Fox, Shirley Temple Black, Vanessa Redgrave

In the News: Iran and world powers close to striking a nuclear deal. Also, Greece receives a three-year bailout in exchange for tough reforms.

Astrology July 1, 2015: Full Moon in Capricorn, Cosmic Quote of the Day

Full Moon

(Today’s Planetary Aspects: Venus conjunct Jupiter, 3:51 am; Moon opposite Mars, 1:32 pm; Sun trine Neptune, 5:10 pm; Moon sextile Neptune, 9:59 pm; Moon opposite Sun, 10:20 pm. Moon is in Sagittarius until 5:11 am, when it enters Capricorn; All times EDT.)

Cosmic Quote of the Day: “If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself.” Henry Ford

Isn’t it interesting that when we each focus on becoming more of what we already are, success is something that becomes almost a non-issue for us?

Today’s Energy:

A Full Moon in “ambitious” Capricorn occurs at 10:20 pm tonight. Full Moons bring heightened awareness, thereby allowing us to cop new perspectives. The Full Moon in Capricorn specifically affords us a chance to focus on creating more of a work/life balance – never an easy task! This is an excellent time to revisit those goals that we eagerly set, at the start of the year, and evaluate how we are faring with them. Are we still wanting to tow the line, or do we maybe need to make a course correction? Or, possibly we have gotten sidetracked, the last few months, and need to get back on track now with the personal vision that we hold for ourselves. A Capricorn Full Moon also puts the spotlight on those traditional elements that accompany our public image such as reputation, leadership ability, organizational skills, and career success.

Lovable Venus also exactly conjuncts benefic Jupiter today (3:51 am), an influence that has been building in strength, for the last few days. This is regarded as one of the most fortuitous, pleasurable, and romantic influences of all as expansive Jupiter, the purveyor of opportunity, magnifies all the best qualities of the charming Venusian energy. This conjunction also helps to re-set the socially reforming, albeit seemingly magical, Jupiter Uranus trine, which is still within a one degree orb from being exact. We tend to see the best in others now and want to do what is in our power to make others happy. Our mood is very warm, friendly and gregarious, although we could get a little carried away with self-indulgent behavior, especially since this influence tends to favor or court lavish celebrations or overtures. Of course, we could also counteract or neutralize this tendency, if we wanted to, by intentionally engaging in random acts of kindness, in an effort to spread the wealth and gaiety around. This aspect remains in effect for a couple of days.

Moon opposite Mars, 1:32 pm. We are poised to meet or achieve our goals, but may need to possibly counteract a tendency toward hypersensitivity, even bullying. Avoiding those who know how to push our buttons, too, is probably a smart strategy now.

Sun trine Neptune, 9:59 pm. This is a highly creative and imaginative aspect that kindles our humanitarian instincts and compassion. We are more willing to take a back seat to others now as our ego needs subside, although we may still need to be vigilant or discerning as to the sincerity of other people’s intentions. In general, this is excellent energy for dissolving differences, implementing peacekeeping measures or truces, both on an individual and a collective level.  Also, quite fittingly here, President Obama is reportedly set to unveil, today, a deal between the U.S. and Cuba that would reopen embassies and restore diplomatic ties that were broken more than 50 years ago (from AOL.com).

Also, Sun trine Neptune is an ideal influence for immersion in spiritual studies, meditation, partaking in retreats, taking trips by the sea, or any type of visioning work. Those who are artistically gifted may also find this energy great for doing photography, painting, sculpting, or watercolor.  This alignment is also, of course, a very nice complement to the loving, very generous in nature, Venus-Jupiter aspect, as they both potentially carry a lot of healing energy within them.  This influence will remain in effect for two or three days.

Famous July 1 Birthdays: Princess Diana, Pamela Anderson, Dan Aykroyd, Deborah Harry, Olivia de Havilland

“Carry out a random act of kindness, with no expectation of reward, safe in the knowledge that one day someone might do the same for you.” Princess Diana

Full Moon Blessings to you!

Astrology June 22, 2011: Mars Square Fishy Neptune

COSMIC WATCH:

“The gift of fantasy has meant more to me than my talent for absorbing positive knowledge.” Albert Einstein, a Pisces Sun.

Fantasy Neptune, ruler of our imagination and also the urge for escape, is captaining our ‘good ship lollipop’ today in oceanic Pisces. This is because not only do we have a Neptune-ruled, dreamy Pisces Moon all day, we also have the Sun in nesting Cancer trining inspirational Neptune. And, energizer Mars in idea Gemini is squaring Neptune.

With Neptune’s illusory ray so prominent now it is much easier for us to “go adrift,” so we need to be extra mindful about holding ourselves accountable with respect to whatever it is that we want to accomplish today. Although, at the same time, it may also be wise for us not to stack too much on our plates, if we can. Especially work that calls for strict attention to details or facts and figures.

Too, we do have the Pisces Moon void of course all day, so it is best to stick with old projects instead of undertaking anything new. We also are encouraged to focus our energies on more creative venues (film, photography, painting, dance, poetry). Immersion in more spiritual or mystical pursuits also serves us well now, as Neptune is our portal to Divine forces.

Also, if something seems a little fishy to us today, chances are good that it is and we may need to arm ourselves with a healthy dose of skepticism. Neptune, on the shadow side, characteristically has a way of pulling the proverbial wool over our eyes. It is the planet that is formally linked with deception, either self-deception or deception from others (con men). It is also tied with scandal and weird incidents in general (especially the Mars square Neptune aspect). Often the kind of strange stuff that we hear about, that has us scratching our heads, wondering what in the world a person was thinking? Neptune’s classic calling card. 🙂

In the News: President Obama is reportedly planning on addressing the nation tonight from the White House to discuss his plan for the withdrawal of armed forces from Afghanistan, something which is quite fascinating from an astrological standpoint, as we have Mars, governing war and the military, exactly square to Neptune which tends to act as a dissolving agent (diminishing the troop strength in this instance). Neptune is, in fact, known as the “Great Dissolver.”

From research I have done over the years, too, Neptune’s ray often figures prominently in historic peace efforts and treaty signings, reflective perhaps of Neptune’s overriding desire for “oneness,” or for a unified world “without division.”

One more thing. Gotta’ love this “fishy” Neptunian headline in the news today: “Chinese Find 55-foot sea monster!” Reportedly, the “sea monster” washed up on a beach in Guangdong, China. It’s decaying body weighed in at 4.5 tons. Unfortunately, the decomposition was too advanced to ID the remains.

Enjoy your Wednesday! But, be careful about drinking too much of the hallucinatory, Neptunian “Kool-Aid.” Don’t want you to have a hangover. Always trying to do our best to look out for you here. 🙂

Astrology June 9, 2011: Venus, Planet of Love, Enters Gemini

09 Thursday Jun 2011

COSMIC WATCH:

“Love is the magician that pulls man out of his own hat.” Ben Hecht

The planet Venus, ruler of love and money, shifts into playful Gemini today (10:24 am EDT) vacating possessive Taurus. This may facilitate more movement and flexibility in our relationships and perhaps inspire more ingenuity with respect to our money-making ability. Venus in Gemini is more intellectual than emotional in its approach, and with its placement here, in the communication sign, there can be a real love of words and a deep affection for conversation and writing. Venus in Gemini also requires that we have a strong mental bond with someone before we give our tender heart away.  There is also more of a tendency to flirt or tease with this placement. Venus will stay in Gemini until July 4th which may be a romantic boon for natives of this sign.

Too, wherever Venus is transiting by house (area of life) in our personal horoscopes now is where we may see an easing of conditions and opportunity for forming positive new relationships, especially once Saturn goes direct in partnership Libra on June 12th. Venus rules our “power of attraction.” (BTW, yours truly has her lovable Venus in Gemini. I consider it to be one of my saving graces.)

Of course, very rarely is anything in the cosmos ever simple to figure out. The very same day that we have love maven Venus entering breezy Gemini, we also have assertive Mars in stubborn Taurus forming a more challenging 135-degree link (sesquiquadrate) to controlling Pluto in career Capricorn.  Always with Mars-Pluto under stress, there is a risk that the hidden despot in us may try to surface (this is an aspect linked to regime changes). Accordingly, we may want to monitor ourselves more closely and be willing to rein ourselves in, at a moment’s notice, when we see that our proposals and plans for the future etc., are not going over too well and enemy troops are circling all around us. 🙂

Too, there is also the chance that we can encounter this type of controlling, forceful, or inflexible behavior through others now (maybe the boss with Pluto in authoritative Capricorn). The Moon, too, is in workaholic Virgo today (until 6:32 pm EDT).

Mars-Pluto can additionally force us to deal with broken situations in need of immediate repair. Pluto denotes destruction or decay followed by hopeful rebirth or transformation. A good day perhaps for recycling and purging. We may also want to be more vigilant with money and possession matters, and try to minimize our risk or exposure there, as Mars in dollar sign Taurus linked with Pluto potentially has financial implications.Too, we do not want to be manipulative (Pluto) now with our resources, as that could backfire on us.

The Moon enters diplomatic Libra this evening (6:32 pm EDT) and also trines lady Venus herself (7:17 pm EDT), the ruler of Libra, which may help to negate or subdue any of the coarser, testosterone-laden Mars-Pluto energy still permeating the ether. Libra, the sign of “the other,” tends to make us more social and cooperative with each other. It is the sign of peace. John Lennon was a Libra. Need I say more?

In the News: With expansive Jupiter in acquisition-minded Taurus exactly sextile to Neptune in Pisces yesterday, Exxon announced that it has made a major oil discovery in the Gulf of Mexico. Neptune rules oil. Chiron also stationed retrograde in Pisces yesterday, the sign that Neptune rules. BTW, the very day Chiron first entered Pisces in the spring of 2010, we had the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

Patricia’s Astrology Horoscope October 19, 2010: We Are All One

COSMIC WEATHER:

The Domestic Moon remains in Divinity-Seeking Pisces. We are wanting to embark down those insightful roads that will lead us back to our soul’s “original home.”

With Mental Mercury in Peace-Keeping Libra quinqunx to Erratic Uranus, however, which is also positioned in Mystical Pisces, we may be a little unsure about which roads are really the “right roads to go down,” to ensure our soul’s sacred journey.

At the end of the day, The Balanced Libra Sun harmoniously trine to Spiritual Neptune in Futuristic Aquarius, beseeches us “not to worry.” The Sun-Neptune wisdom serenely purports to us that eventually “all paths lead to the same door,” and that all we need to remember is that “we are all one.”

Activities favored today: random acts of kindness, writing poetry, music, songs, prayer, meditation, theater, acting, experimenting with make-up, decorating, collecting seashells, befriending fishes, absconding with enlightened mermaids.

Quote For Today:

“By faithfulness we are collected and wound up into unity within ourselves, whereas we had been scattered abroad in multiplicity.” Saint Augustine

On This Date In History:

October 19, 1983: The U.S. Senate establishes Martin Luther King, Jr. federal holiday. Very notable here then was Pioneering Mars in Analytical Virgo in a tight square to Philosophical Jupiter in Highly Principled Sagittarius, the sign that Jupiter naturally rules.  Mars-Jupiter tends to “fire up” our idealism (Jupiter) and makes us want to go to war (Mars) for what we believe in (Jupiter). It is traditionally associated with political and social activism.

I also blogged the other day here how sometimes, too, Mars-Jupiter aspects are associated with “religious fanaticism,” as Jupiter also rules religion and Mars adds fuel and passion to that body of beliefs.  We always need to be careful with Mars-Jupiter that we don’t go overboard, as Jupiter tends to excessive behavior anyway, and on the shadow side, can additionally make us somewhat arrogant and cocksure that we alone hold the truth.

Additionally, Jupiter was separating from a conjunction to Equality-Ruling Uranus, which was also in the sign of Higher Beliefs Sagittarius. Uranus, ruling matters involving groups and the collective, characteristically delivers to us sudden insights and awareness, and in Sagittarius, these insights can help to shape our moral beliefs and behavior. Jupiter-Uranus tends to take us out of our normal belief set and allows us to feel more comfortable with or embrace non-traditional ideas, shatters some of Jupiter’s “moral superiority” notion.

We also presently have Jupiter and Uranus conjunct now in Idealistic Pisces, a sign that Jupiter co-rules with Neptune. Equality and humanitarian issues are emphasized with this conjunction and just last week, we had the federal judge striking down the Don’t Ask Don’t Tell policy, which had been in place in the military for almost two decades.

Another cool parallel to today was the Justice-Seeking Libra Sun then was exactly sextile to Compassionate Neptune which was also in Sagittarius. Today we have the Libra Sun trine Neptune in Brotherly Aquarius, a very similar aspect. Neptune is our link to the Divine and represents a state of consciousness in which “we are all one,” our personal borders and boundaries are dissolved.  Our compassion and humanity are stoked and we realize that we are all in this together. On Sun-Neptune days we become more preoccupied with our unity versus our differences. Therefore, we are more likely to espouse a a political philosophy of “inclusion,”  even on Capitol Hill.

“Someone to tell it to is one of the fundamental needs of human beings.” Miles Franklin

COSMIC WEATHER:

It’s the “Autumnal Equinox.” The “Illuminating” Sun vacates “Please, Just Let Me Vacuum One More Time Before I Go!” Virgo for “We Make Such A Lovely Couple, Don’t We?” Libra (11:09 pm EDT). Our focus goes from “tidying up the homestead,” “updating our job skills,” and “purifying our minds and bodies,” to wanting to “submerge ourselves” into the “belly of relationships,” “patch up our union difficulties,” and make a noble attempt at “world peace.” We’re also hoping to add more “beauty and pizazz” to the world by shopping furiously to update our wardrobes and praying that “Scrooge” Saturn doesn’t see the charge card statement when it arrives.

Meanwhile, the “Tender, Compassionate” Pisces Moon is tending to the last of her “prayer requests.” We may want to do likewise (Pisces rules our “link to the Divine”). Later, the Pisces Moon will be restocking the “oceanic bar” with a fresh, 30-day supply of liquor, which she fears may not be enough to last out the whole month now with “Always Thirsty” Jupiter back into Pisces “inebriated waters, “alongside that very “Erratic Drinker” Uranus. Jupiter conjoined Uranus in “drinking hole” Pisces can give a rich “fondness for alcohol” since Pisces rules liquor. Jupiter is also not known “for moderation,” especially when conjoined with Impulsive Uranus who also has difficulty “tempering his impulses.” If we normally have “problems holding our liquor” we may be well-advised to “leave it alone,” for awhile, particularly while this “potent aspect” is in operation.

Celebrity Birthday:

Italian singer Andrea Bocelli turns 52 today.  Andrea has both a “Perfectionist” Virgo Sun and Virgo Ascendant.  Also helping him to sing melodiously and “to perfection” are Soothing Venus (ruling the voice) and Mercury (ruling communication) both conjoined in Virgo and also tightly conjunct his Ascendant.  “Venus-Mercury” can make us popular and also gives us a way with words, as Venus rules our “power of attraction” and Mercury rules “speech.” We can “win others over” with our communication skills. Venus also rules all that is beautiful and Mercury helps Venus to articulate that beauty through language. Andrea takes all this, one step further, by masterfully marrying “words to music.” Andrea also has his Emotional Moon in Serious Capricorn conjunct his fifth house of personal creativity giving his feelings “depth and drama,” which serve him well in his interpretation of the music. Too, all his “Virgo energy” gives him vast ability to pay close attention to all those “little details” and “minor nuances” of a melody, so as to bring all of its inherent splendor to life with his ‘godlike voice.”
