Cosmic Weather:

“The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness.” — Honoré de Balzac.

It appears that the planets are appropriately towing the line this Mother’s Day as the purposeful Sun in steadfast, devoted Taurus forms a harmonizing sextile to magnanimous, inclusive Jupiter in maternal Cancer (10:14 pm), an influence that ideally serves to foster/strengthen our relationships, especially those that connect us to our familial or ancestral roots.

“Storms make trees take deeper roots.” – Dolly Parton

Jupiter is viewed as the “growth factor” in astrology and when it is deposited in nurturing Cancer it is thought that we are more amenable to displaying greater amounts of empathy or compassion, which can also, ideally, add to our own reservoir of personal well-being. A win-win situation all around!

Too, many astrological devotees are also, no doubt, keeping fingers crossed that the Sun in “material girl” Taurus, sextile to “cosmic Santa” Jupiter, will work its reputed magic and result in generously replenishing all of our coffers! 🙂

Luna is also in her Waning Crescent phase in progressive Aquarius until 1:39 pm, at which time she will shift into soothing, dreamy Pisces, which is regarded as an excellent period for reflection, journaling, or cleansing/clearing out activities.

On This Day in History: On May 10, 1872, Victoria Woodhall (b. 9-23-1838), a suffragist and civil rights activist, becomes the first woman nominated for the US presidency by the “Equal Rights Party” at Apollo Hall, NYC.

Astrologically, that day, philosophical, expansionist Jupiter was in Cancer – as it is now – and separating from a sextile to the empowering Sun, courageous Mars, and transformational Pluto all conjunct in determined, plodding Taurus. Jupiter was also conjunct unconventional rules-breaker Uranus, the planet associated with equality; the sign of Cancer is also linked with patriotism or love of country.

Earlier, in 1870, Victoria Woodhall co-founded Woodhull, Claflin & Co. with her sister Tennessee Claflin, making it reportedly the first female‑owned and operated brokerage firm on Wall Street. The sisters’ starting capital reportedly came from railroad magnate Cornelius Vanderbilt, who had employed them earlier as spiritualists and fortune‑tellers, giving them stock tips that he used to his advantage.

*All times EDT

Happy Mother’s Day! Hope it’s a good one!

Astrology December 27, 2019: Sun Conjuncts Jupiter

Cosmic Weather:

The commanding Sun is having its annual meetup (conjunction) with optimistic Jupiter today (1:25 pm), occurring in the industrious sign of Capricorn, this year. This alignment between the two largest bodies of our solar system is usually a time when we naturally expect “big things” to happen, in part, because Jupiter, the planet of growth or expansion, is also linked with luck, prosperity, and generosity. Archetypally, it’s often billed as the “Cosmic Santa.”

Of course, with this year’s conjunction taking place in the more cautious, Saturn-ruled domain of Capricorn, it would appear that if there is some kind of big burgeoning or flourishing now, that it would likely be more contained or discreet, in some respects. Or, perhaps more likely based upon our individual level of worthiness or merit as viewed from a more achievement-oriented (or Capricornian) lense, such as, how good are we at carrying out our duties or responsibilities? At being self-disciplined? Being conscientious? And so forth.

In other words, while it’s very possible that we may receive a reward or notable distinction of some kind now with this Sun-Jupiter conjunction, it will probably be in exchange for something that we have already earned. Kind of like when we were in school, we might have made it to the Dean’s List, if we maintained a certain grade point average.

That said, if you still intuitively feel in your bones that you do really need to buy a lottery ticket for tonight, go right ahead! 🙂

Additionally, and perhaps more proactively, this Sun-Jupiter conjunction is also excellent for immersing ourselves in outlets that make us feel like we’re growing or expanding our world in some way, be it personally or professionally. For instance, it might be a good day to do some sightseeing or to read about other cultures. Or to maybe discuss philosophy with a friend. Or it could be that we opt to meet with a recruiter to see how we might be able to kick our career into high gear in 2020. This would also probably be a great day to put together a vision board, for next year, detailing what we would like to see happening in our lives, in the coming months.

“It takes someone with a vision of the possibilities to attain new levels of experience. Someone with the courage to live his dreams.” Les Brown

Numerologically, with it being a “nine” day (the 27th), there’s both a philosophical and philanthropic vibe to the day, which also fits right in with the overall nature of the Sun-Jupiter conjunction. There may also be more longing now to depart from convention and “go our own way.”

*All times EST.

Born On This Day: German astronomer Johannes Kepler, in 1571, who discovered the laws of planetary motion.

Johannes Kepler once wrote: I demonstrate by means of philosophy that the earth is round, and is inhabited on all sides; that it is insignificantly small, and is borne through the stars.

Hope it’s a good one!

Astrology December 24, 2011: New Moon In Worldly Capricorn

COSMIC WATCH:

New Moons usher in new beginnings. The New Moon in “practical, worldly” Capricorn, on December 24th (1:06 pm EST), is a perfect conduit for any of our long-term planning and goal-setting. Ideally, Capricorn energy infuses us with extra capacity to function in a structured environment in a more disciplined manner. A flowing trine to the lunation from “optimistic” Jupiter also helps to put us in a more “can-do” spirit while mapping out our direction for the year ahead. Abundant Jupiter is also stationing direct in prosperity-minded Taurus, on Christmas Day, gloriously giving us the “cosmic green light” to move forward with our exciting itinerary and plans.

This last New Moon of the year also forms a square to “innovative” Uranus suggesting that we have a chance to break free now from ruts or bottlenecks, especially if we are willing to incorporate, or at least consider, new methods or alternatives. A potent conjunction to “insightful” Pluto also helps us to get really clear on our intentions. It may also serve to strengthen our passions and desires in a transformative way.

We will also want to make a conscious intention of working cooperatively with others now versus getting embroiled in any power struggles. Sometimes, on the shadow side with Moon-Pluto, we can get a little too full of ourselves and that can incline us to want to exert extra influence in the world. Sometimes we also do this in a manner that disregards, or does not take into consideration, other people’s needs and desires. Too, Capricorn is a very authoritative sign to begin with.

“No one can whistle a symphony.  It takes a whole orchestra to play it.” H.E. Luccock

Famous People with Moon in Capricorn: Annie Lennox, Cher, Brad Pitt, George Clooney (still love you, George!)

New Moon in Capricorn Affirmation: “Life loves me and always rewards me generously for all of my noble efforts.”

In The News: It’s being dubbed “the kiss heard around the world.” Earlier this week, two female U.S. sailors won the honor of the traditional “first kiss” on the pier (in Virginia Beach, Virginia), upon returning home after being away at sea for 80 days. The pair reportedly nabbed the privilege after partaking in, and winning, a raffle drawing in which sailors bought $1 tickets to raise money for military members’ children. Navy officials said it was the first time that a same-sex couple celebrated the “first kiss.” This “first” was also made possible with the recent repeal of the military’s “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy.

What makes this incident very fascinating, from an astrological perspective, is that Venus, the planet that also governs women and romance, had just entered “unconventional” Aquarius and was making an exact, harmonious sextile to Uranus in Aries, the planet that governs equality issues and matters involving individual rights. Aries is also the sign that happens to rule the military.

Happy New Moon blessings! Also, may you and your loved ones enjoy peace, love and joy this holiday season and all year ‘round. Looking forward to being with you here in the new year.

Namaste,

Patrice Thompson
