Cosmic Weather:

“Nothing in the universe can stop you from letting go and starting over.” – Guy Finley

There’s a New Moon in trailblazing Aries, later tonight (10:31 pm). Harkening potent new beginnings! The sign of the Ram is perennially focused on putting things into motion (planting seeds), creating new opportunities. Finding ways to be more self-reliant. Independent. The specific house (area of life) that this lunation falls in, within our natal chart, will also be very activated now (for the next month), and where fresh starts are poised for liftoff.

New Moons, however, do take a little bit of time to gel as we’re essentially operating in the dark, so to speak. Unlike with a Full Moon when there’s plenty of light, with which to see, and illuminations can be overpowering.

The ruler of this Aries Lunation is Mars in Gemini which is also making a waxing sextile to the New Moon. This is a very supportive influence. Making us feel even more eager, enthusiastic about mentally pondering the slate of possibilities before us now. Jupiter in Aquarius sextiling the Lunation also adds a healthy dose of optimism to our outlook. It’s also good for trying out new approaches or methodologies. Getting backing from others. Interacting with groups. Jupiter’s ray also inclines us to want to “go big” with our new creations. Too, Mars is applying to a flowing trine to Jupiter, which perfects on Saturday (the 17th). Often one of the most beneficial times of the year, as Mars-Jupiter energy typically ratchets up our desires and endows us with an unstoppable “can-do” spirit!

Shortly after tonight’s New Moon, Venus in Aries (which is also conjunct the lunation) will also be forming a waxing square to Pluto in Capricorn (11:20 pm). What this can do, among other things, is make us very determined to have our own way in relationships (which could have consequences!). This can also give us an urge to purge the past and move on.

“Letting go means to come to the realization that some people are a part of your history, but not a part of your destiny.” Steve Maraboli

*All times EDT.

Happy New Moon blessings!

Cosmic Weather:

“Treat your relationship as if you are growing the most beautiful sacred flower. Keep watering it, tend to the roots, and always make sure the petals are full of color and are never curling. Once you neglect your plant, it will die, as will your relationship.” Suzy Kassem

Venus in Aries Sextiles Saturn in Aquarius (11:47 am) – We’re adopting more of a long-term outlook regarding our relationships, finances, and values. Favors making hefty deposits into our friendship accounts. Positive for solidifying valued connections. There’s also more of a willingness or ability to work patiently on projects that tap into our desires.

The Waning Moon, still in its Full Stage, also entered investigative Scorpio, early this morning (1:34 am). Ideally, this helps to facilitate a keener awareness of the workings of the world. We also tend to be more guarded or circumspect with our emotions now.

(Speaking of the Moon, in the Wall Street Journal today there is an interesting article entitled, “How a Supermoon Helped Free the Giant Container Ship (the Ever Given) From the Suez Canal.” It mentions how the “stronger tidal effect made it easier to partially float the Ever Given but also gave engineers a hard deadline.)

Numerologically, March 30, 2021, is a “2” and “3” day. A plus for social interactions and creative problem-solving. Favors mediation and cooperative ventures. A strong feminine vibe to the day!

*All Times EDT

On This Day in History: On March 30, 1870, the 15th Amendment to the US constitution is adopted, guaranteeing the right to vote regardless of race.

Astrologically, that day, wounded healer Chiron, action-oriented Mars, and the empowering Sun were all conjunct in pioneering Aries, with Mars (the ruler of Aries) exactly conjunct the Sun-Chiron midpoint. Philosophical Jupiter was also conjunct transformative Pluto, in anchoring Taurus, suggesting strong convictions coupled with an intense desire to make changes or improvements.

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

Aretha Franklin records Respect, big-picture thinking, daily astrology, love, Mercury conjunct Jupiter, numerology, relationships

Cosmic Weather:

“Science does a great job at reducing variables until they are small enough to be understood, but we aren’t doing a great job at reassembling the picture once it has been broken down into a thousand pieces.” – Katy Bowman

Mercury Rx conjuncts Jupiter in Aquarius (4:40 pm). There’s more of a flair or capacity for big-picture thinking, generating innovative ideas, or stretching our perspectives now (even if some things might need to be revised later). Mercury/Jupiter typically represents the “glass is half full” mindset, which can actually help to shift things around for us in a positive way by harnessing the brain’s power of expectation.

The Waxing Moon also rockets into “start-me-up” Aries (10:54 am). We are naturally primed now for new beginnings and endeavors that require self-assertion or taking personal initiative.

Numerologically, it’s a “5” and “3” day, suggesting there’s a plethora of curiosity and creativity circulating around. Also, an element of playfulness.

*All times EST

On This Day in History: On February 14, 1967, Aretha Franklin recorded “Respect” (Billboard Song of the Year 1967).

“Respect” is a song originally released by American singer-songwriter Otis Redding in 1965. The song became a signature hit for Aretha Franklin in 1967. The music in the two versions is significantly different. Redding’s version is a plea from a desperate man, who will give his woman anything she wants. He won’t care if she does him wrong, as long as he gets his due respect when he brings money home. However, Franklin’s version is a declaration from a strong, confident woman, who knows that she has everything her man wants. She never does him wrong, and demands his “respect”. Franklin’s version adds the “R-E-S-P-E-C-T” chorus and the backup singers’ refrain of “Sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me…”. Aretha Franklin’s interpretation was a landmark for the feminist movement and is often considered one of the best songs of the R&B era. (Wikipedia)

Astrologically, when Franklin recorded “Respect” on 2/14/67, romantic Venus, in dreamy Pisces, was exactly opposing transformational Pluto in corrective Virgo. Venus-Pluto oppositions can often intensify our feelings and emotions in our relationships as well as spotlight any imbalances of power within this realm.  We may also feel a real need to “clear the air,” at this time, in a bid to get our love life back on track.

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

Astrology April 7, 2020: Mars Square Uranus, A Libra Full Moon

daily astrology, freedom, Full Moon in LIbra 2020, individuality, Mars square Uranus, relationships

Cosmic Weather:

With impulsive Mars squaring rebellious Uranus, the planet of change (at 2:50 pm), it could very well seem like a bit of a roller-coaster ride for us today as the pace of our lives could suddenly quicken or be disrupted in some manner by this more high-voltage aspect. We also might be adding to the frenetic pace, ourselves, in the sense that we may suddenly be feeling more of a need now for freedom or liberation from the various perceived “confining elements” in our lives, during this highly uncharted period of time on our planet.

Fortunately, though, how we choose to respond to things is always in our control and, to that end, we are also, seemingly and thankfully, getting some timely assistance from the Universe now via intellectual Mercury’s sextile alignments with transformative Pluto (at 5:28 pm) and optimistic Jupiter (10:20 pm), aspects which can allow us to tap into, more effortlessly, the deeper meaning of things so that, ideally, we feel less daunted by any possible uncertainties or changes swirling around us, at present, in the outer realm.

Mercury-Pluto, in particular, can provide us with some very profound insights or wisdom bubbling up to us from our subconscious. We may also be more impacted by the power of word or speech now to turn our world around, including this possibly also being a time when we may feel more inclined or comfortable having very honest conversations on more intimate subjects.

Too, leave it to the “higher powers-that-be” to jampack way too much cosmic stuff into the confines of a single day for all of us to have to humbly deal with or sort out! 🙂 Not only do we have all of the aforementioned above going on, but we also have the biggest and brightest Full Moon of the year taking place tonight (at 10:35 pm). This so-called “Pink Moon” puts the self-assertive, independent Aries Sun opposite the more cooperative, relationship-focused Libra Moon, allowing us a chance to balance or integrate these two opposing forces/needs in some kind of satisfactory manner so, in a perfect world, we end up feeling more fully centered or at peace with ourselves. Full Moons also bring things (including our emotions) to a peak or culmination and can be special times of great inner clarity or awareness, although we may want to wait a few days before acting upon any of these newly-birthed realizations.

“I wanted a perfect ending. Now I’ve learned, the hard way, that some poems don’t rhyme, and some stories don’t have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what’s going to happen next.” Gilda Radner

*All times EDT.

Born On This Day: English poet William Wordsworth, in 1770. He became England’s poet laureate in 1843, a position he held until his death in 1850.

“Though nothing can bring back the hour
Of splendor in the grass, of glory in the flower;
We will grieve not, rather find
Strength in what remains behind;
In the primal sympathy
Which having been must ever be…” W.W.

Full Moon blessings to you! Hope it’s a good one! Be safe.

Astrology November 25, 2019: Venus in Capricorn, Balsamic Moon in Scorpio

25 Monday Nov 2019

career, daily astrology, numerology, relationships, status, values, Venus enters Capricorn

Cosmic Weather:

The big cosmic headline for today is Venus’s shift from “footloose and fancy-free” Sagittarius to “I take great pride in balancing my checkbook” Capricorn, which officially occurs, this evening (7:28 pm).

Venus, named after the Roman goddess of love and beauty, symbolically governs our relationships, our social life, and our values. Venus sheds light on what we enjoy or look forward to. Also, Venus’s placement by sign is thought to reflect or shape our attitudes towards money and possessions.

Too, it used to be that Venus was the brightest planet in the night sky. But all that likely changes, as of tonight, as probably the first thing she’ll do when she flits into frugal Capricorn will be to turn on the dimmer switch! 🙂

Generally, Venus in Saturn-ruled Cappie is all about conserving or using our resources wisely. Abiding by the traditional or the time-tested.

Because Capricorn also rules career, status, and reputation, there’s also potentially a greater appreciation or affinity now for those persons who can help us to ascend the corporate ladder.

Venus will remain in Capricorn until December 20th.

The Moon is also in its Balsamic phase in eliminating Scorpio, all day, in preparation for tomorrow’s New Moon in Sagittarius. So today is excellent for releasing or letting go. It’s also a great time for reflecting upon the past and for setting our New Moon intentions.

“The past is never where you think you left it.” Katherine Anne Porter

Numerologically, today is also a “7” day (the 25th reduces down to 2+5, which equals 7). The number seven is thought to have a more intuitive or mystical orientation to it. Too, the Holy Spirit is supposedly quoted 25 times in the Gospels.

*All times EST

Hope it’s a good one!

daily astrology, diplomacy, Mercury conjunct Venus, relationships, Sun trine pluto, treasure hunt

Cosmic Weather:

Today, it appears, we may be able to smooth out some wrinkles on the relationship front, and play nice with each other, for at least a while, as communicator Mercury forms a soothing conjunction to charmer Venus in conscientious Virgo (11:10 am). Mercury-Venus aspects tend to inspire us to seek out more points of agreement, or to find ways to be diplomatic. It’s also usually an excellent time to articulate our feelings, something that’s not often easy for many of us to do. This aspect can also inspire us to want to be surrounded by beauty, in all its many splendid shapes, forms, or guises. It’s fascinating, too, how when we put ourself in a more agreeable or pleasant environment how our mood will often almost immediately change for the better. Kind of like how stepping outside on a sunny day gives us a lift.

“Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a
listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all
of which have the potential to turn a life around.” Leo Buscaglia

The empowering Sun in self-improvement Virgo is also trining transformational Pluto Rx, in ambitious Capricorn (3:42 pm). This is potentially a very super cool influence for being able to help take us “to the next level,” in our ongoing, often mystifying evolutionary journey on the dense earth plane. Too, the Sun-Pluto energy is often sometimes a bit like a “treasure hunt,” in the sense that we may be able to finally locate/spot/identify now something that has previously managed to elude us. It’s like, suddenly, we’re ready to know more about the matter and, we also sense, that this new knowledge or awareness, may have important ramifications for us, down the road. Also, this is an aspect that can help us to “step into our power.”

Favored activities for today: catching up on correspondence; writing love letters, poetry; studying geology; doing excavation work; detox efforts; incorporating healthier foods or exercise into our diet; making improvements in the workplace; talking to recruiters, updating our resumes, or doing job searches; engaging in negotiations; creating succession plans; handling insurance or tax matters.

*All times EDT

Hope it’s a good one!

Today’s Astrology June 12, 2019: Mars Conjunct North Node

daily astrology, daily horoscope, empathy, life path, Mars conjunct North Node, Moon in Libra, moon trine sun, relationships, Sun in Gemini, teamwork

Cosmic Weather:

The Moon continues in relationship Libra, all day, making a flowing trine to the inquisitive Gemini Sun, this morning (8:57 am), hopefully helping us to feel more of a sense of inner peace or ease with others. This aspect also nicely supports any self-promotion within the public arena as well as any teamwork endeavors. Of course, hanging out with others also often affords us the chance to gain new perspectives on things, or to see the world from a wider lens, and that is something that the curious Gemini Sun most definitely relishes, along with conversation!

Additionally, engaging in face-to-face interactions is also a very good way for us to potentially increase our levels of empathy for each other. Leo Buscaglia (also known as “Dr. Love”) said that, “Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.” 

Assertive Mars is also conjunct the North Node in nurturing Cancer, this evening (at 6:46 pm), an influence that can inspire or motivate us to make some headway or progress along what we perceive to be is our own unique, special life path. We may want to especially pay attention now to what is calling out to us, from our heart. Where are we being led? In what direction are we being nudged or prodded to grow, maybe in a courageous way?

“Of all the paths a man could strike into, there is, at any given moment, a best path. A thing which, here and now, it were of all things wisest for him to do. To find this path, and walk in it, is the one thing needful for him.” Thomas Carlyle

Cosmic Weather:

“You wanna fly, you got to give up the shit that weighs you down.” Toni Morrison

It’s actually quite possible today that we’ll be able to lighten our load, a bit, so we can pin on our dusty angel wings, and become airborne, with sweet Venus, in ethereal, transcendent Pisces, sextiling aviation-ruling Uranus in practical Taurus. Uranus naturally propels us towards change and experimentation. And, newly-deposited in Venus-ruled Taurus, the sign that governs money, our values, and our attachments, it’s potentially a chance for us to suddenly see these areas in a brand new light and to maybe do some creative tweaking, if needed. Possibly releasing, in the process, some of the baggage or worn-out practices of the past. I emphasized the word suddenly here, too, because that’s often how Uranus tends to impact us. It metaphorically symbolizes a bolt of lightning, out of the blue. You know, it’s those light bulb or aha moments that Oprah’s always going on about. Oprah herself is a Uranus-ruled Aquarian.

Venus-Uranus can be especially refreshing for new romantic encounters, for forming new friendships, and socializing, in general, as it often pairs us up with personality types that we normally wouldn’t give a second thought to. What’s also extra exciting about these liaisons, at least at the time, is there usually a lot of electricity in the air when we meet these people.

The Moon also shifts from idealistic Sagittarius to business-oriented Capricorn, this morning (10:07 am), with the Capricorn Moon also sextiling Venus (12:06 pm) and trining Uranus (12:10 pm), again underscoring the day’s sizzling Venus-Uranus aspect. If you’re also into power lunches, today would probably be a good time to have one. Although, Venus in inebriated Pisces may also want to make it into a two-martini lunch, so be forewarned!

On This Day in History: On March 27, 1915 Typhoid Mary (Mary Mallon) is arrested and returned to quarantine on North Brother Island, New York after spending five years evading health authorities and causing several further outbreaks of typhoid. Astrologically in the sky, that day, problem-solving Mercury was applying to a conjunction to insightful Jupiter and police chief Mars in escapist Pisces, the sign that also rules infirmaries, hospitals, and prisons.

Today’s Astrology February 22, 2019: Not Quite Ready For Prime Time

Cosmic Weather:

“It is always the novice who exaggerates.” C.S. Lewis

Mercury in Pisces squares Jupiter in Sagittarius (3:40 pm)

While we may be very jazzed up about our ideas, beliefs, and points of view today, including, perhaps, very eager and ready to perform full-fledged Jupiterian proselytizations on anyone who will give us just five minutes, chances are that we’re not quite ready for prime time yet! At least, that is, our ideas, etc. might not be fully ready for their big Broadway stage debuts. Had to clarify that! Of course, we’re ready! We’re always ready! 🙂

Often with Mercury square Jupiter in play, there’s a tendency for us to overpromise, overexaggerate, and bloviate, in general. We’re also more prone to overlooking key details because we’re less inclined to want to concentrate our attention now. Still, though, today can be a fun, stimulating time for conversation, or for writing. Especially in the first half of the day, as this energy is applying.  That’s because, again, there’s a certain largeness to our thinking now that feels very positive. Our mental faculties are also being s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d. Mercury in Pisces is also already in its shadow phase, getting ready to turn retrograde on March 5, so we’re going to have this Mercury-Jupiter square, two more times, before it’s all over. Hopefully, we’ll get to see more of this evolving picture, each time it occurs. Eventually knowing exactly what to do! Anyway, hope always springs eternal here!

Venus Conjuncts Pluto in Capricorn (10:49 pm)

“Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don’t know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.” Anais Nin

As we move more into the second half of the day, we’re likely going to be feeling more of the emotional intensity of the Venus-Pluto conjunction. This aspect can make us especially want to go deeper with our relationships, and to look at things that we may have not wanted to face before. But, now, we’re likely wanting to get to the bottom of things, maybe about ourselves, another person, or a situation, possibly because we no longer want to be living a lie, or an illusion. Or, things may have also reached a critical point now, where there’s no longer even an option of our turning back.

Additionally, we may also want to be healed now from whatever has been weighing us down, or holding us back. There’s definitely a lot of raw emotion out there now. And, ideally, it can be used for transformational purposes. But, first, we must scale to the depths and be willing to look at, unflinchingly, the true nature of things. See what comes up for us from below, and then release it, or try let it go.

It’s also interesting now that, with this Venus-Pluto conjunction taking place in authoritative Capricorn, Pope Francis is hosting a historic summit on combatting clergy sex abuse in the Catholic Church. On the shadow side, Venus-Pluto is sometimes associated with sexual abuse. Pluto specifically governing such things as sexually deviant or hidden or clandestine forms of behavior, violating sexual taboos, fetishes, obsessions, and even hate crimes. It can also translate into our wanting to be on a power trip of sorts. Wanting to, perhaps, exert maximum control over others for our own selfish purposes or gratification. Or, on the flip side, we may encounter or hear about individuals now who behave in this manner. Today, Pope Francis (b. 12/17/36) also has, in his natal chart, transiting Mars exactly conjunct his Uranus in Taurus in his tenth house of career and public standing. Mars-Uranus often signifying a powerful period when a person is called upon to initiate (Mars) radical reforms (Uranus). Uranus right now, too, is at 29 degrees of pioneering Aries, a critical degree in which we often feel compelled to take last-minute or final action on something that has been building for a while. What’s more, Pope Francis has his natal midheaven at 0 degrees of Taurus! So Uranus is getting ready to cross over it, in a few days. It’s likely that today’s summit is just the beginning, or a sampling, of what is probably going to be unfolding, in the future, around the Pope, and with the church, for a long time to come.

On another level, this can also be a time when we get more reality-focused about our finances, including possibly wanting to take measures to turn things around for the positive. 

UPDATED: More Venus-Pluto high-profile type stories in the headlines today! This afternoon, singer R. Kelly was reportedly charged with 10 counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse, some involving underage victims, according to US media reports.  Also, Patriots owner Robert Kraft was, the billionaire owner of the Super Bowl champion New England Patriots, was charged today with two counts of soliciting sex as part of a wide-ranging investigation into prostitution and suspected human trafficking in South Florida (New York Times).

“We can say what we need to say. We can gently, but assertively, speak our mind. We do not need to be judgmental, tactless, blaming or cruel when we speak our truths.” Melody Beattie

Venus Square Saturn: This aspect is in effect now through April 21st, when it becomes exact. Venus, the Goddess of Love and Beauty, archetypally represents how we give and receive love and affection. It also symbolizes what we value as well as our artistic or creative sensibilities. When Venus is aligned with Saturn, we may take a more practical or mature view of our relationships as Saturn denotes the realm of tried-and-true experience. It is the reality principle. Optimally, we may want to use this Venus-Saturn time to be deeply honest with ourselves about matters of the heart, and to not be afraid to set appropriate boundaries. One of the gifts of Saturn is that it teaches us to stand on our own. A shadow manifestation of this Venus-Saturn influence is to feel blocked or cut off from others.
