COSMIC WATCH:

“Disenchantment, whether it is a minor disappointment or a major shock, is the signal that things are moving into transition in our lives.” William Throsby Bridges

This is the last full day of the Moon in “transitioning” Scorpio, with Scorpio the sign of the zodiac formally governing both death and rebirth. Scorpio also rules such things as debt and taxes, and resources that we share with others (joint financial matters, sex).

Today may deliver even more poignant transitions than normal because we still have expander Jupiter, in money-ruling Taurus, involved in a tight, less than one degree trine with Pluto, Scorpio’s ruler, in influential Capricorn, the sign of government, business and career.

Abundant Jupiter, the planet of growth and opportunity, expands whatever it touches and aligned with transforming, rejuvenating Pluto (and the Scorpio Moon), we potentially have a colossal chance (Jupiter) to dramatically reconfigure or reshape things in our lives now, including positively altering our perceptions. This is actually, in a way, very “magical energy” that we have at our disposal now. Magical in the sense that it is replete with great alchemical potential.

It is also a good day to perhaps read about or study matters that we don’t understand, or that are a mystery to us. Scorpio is intrinsically “investigative energy” and always gives us the cool chance to put on our fetching detective caps. The penetrating Scorpio Moon also provides us with a firm backdrop for poking holes through some of our rigid defenses that may be holding us hostage psychologically. Pluto-ruled Scorpio presides over our subconscious, the gateway to our buried past. It also rules the study of psychology.

The protective, nurturing Cancer Sun is additionally forming a fortuitous quintile (72-degree aspect) to optimistic Jupiter today, throwing in an upbeat, creative vibe to the energy of the day. Jupiter governs our vision for ourselves, and endows us with a good measure of faith and hope in the future. The quintile aspect also denotes “special gifts” or “abilities.”

In the News:

With “wild card” Uranus stationing retrograde in “sports-ruling” Aries yesterday, Derek Jeter, a Cancer Sun, became the first Yankees player ever to join the magical “3000 hits” club, a feat only 28 other players in baseball history have been able to accomplish. I mentioned in yesterday’s blog that when a planet changes direction, it tends to call more attention to itself. Uranus is the planet of change and unpredictability. It also governs “genius,” or “flashes of brilliance.”

Fascinatingly, Uranus, which is presently at 4 degrees of Aries, also stationed retrograde in Jeter’s personal horoscope as part of an exact “cardinal t-cross,” in his chart, involving Jeter’s 4 degree Cancer Sun (his sense of power) and 4 degree Pluto in Libra (his ability to transform his life).

Too, often with “action-packed” cardinal energy, is when we see things really “pop,” especially when the “t-cross” or “grand cross configurations” are  also involved.  Jeter also has lucky, transiting Jupiter exactly sextile to his success-driven Saturn in Cancer now, perhaps supplying a good measure of “extra icing” on his cosmic cake. Jupiter harmonious to Saturn is characteristically a time when we are able to manifest our goals and dreams, with form-builder Saturn overseeing our personal and worldly ambitions. Way to go, Derek!

“It’s a funny thing about life; if you refuse to accept anything but the best, very often you get it.” William Somerset Maugham

Enjoy your Sunday! Hope you have a “big hit” of a day!

Astrology July 8, 2011: Venus Squares “Deep” Pluto, Moon in Libra

COSMIC WATCH:

 “Jealousy is that pain which a man feels from the apprehension that he is not equally beloved by the person whom he entirely loves.” Joseph Addison

The Moon remains in diplomatic Libra, however, she may have to perform double-duty to keep things copasetic  today. This is because we have sweet Venus, the ruler of relationships and romance, opposed to intense Pluto. Pluto stands guard over our subconscious, with Venus-Pluto often acting as a conduit for channeling our deeper, more complex emotions.

Too, often what we keep buried inside, can have a darker or more primitive vibration to it, as it hasn’t yet had a chance to be fully processed by our conscious awareness.  On the shadow side, Venus-Pluto has been linked with feelings of jealousy, manipulation, suspicion, and obsession, with Pluto also governing our urge for power and control.

If we feel toxic emotions rising to the surface now, instead of instinctively acting on them, we may be better off trying to probe and figure out why they are there in the first place. Venus-Pluto can be very healing in that it can help us arrive at a fresh awareness and understanding and then, accordingly, help us to purge from our behavior whatever is unhealthy.

Also, this aspect can be positive for “clearing the air” with others, as long as we do so in a manner that does not unduly invite resentment and anger. Hopefully, that is where the “polite” Libra Moon can come to our friendly assist today. Too, a good day to remember to, “make peace, not war.”

Enjoy your Friday!

Astrology May 17, 2011: Full Moon in “Hidden” Scorpio

“Life has its own hidden forces which you can only discover by living.” Soren Kierkegaard

There’s a Full Moon at 26 degrees of Scorpio today (7:10 am EDT). Briefly, a Full Moon represents a culmination or peaking of awareness. With a Full Moon we are often more privy to revelations, as we have “more light” by which to see things. The volume on our emotional responses (Moon) may also be turned up.

Scorpio, as a quality of experience, is associated with intensity of expression, and also extremes of behavior. It is a more complex sign to figure out. The natural ruler of Scorpio is Pluto, which is known for its’ laser-like focus. When the Moon is in Scorpio, there is a greater depth of feeling and passion to us, and consequently we tend to react more powerfully to matters. Unfortunately, emotional outbursts can also manifest, if we are not careful to rein ourselves in. The Scorpio Moon additionally likes power and to be in charge, which means on the shadow side, we often need to simultaneously subdue our feelings of control or manipulation. Jealousy and possessiveness are also two other issues that many of us characteristically wrestle with when the Moon is deposited here.

Scorpio as a zodiacal sign stands guard over those areas of life that are normally hidden from view, such as our mind’s subconscious. It also governs intimacy and sex, or what is often expressed privately “behind closed doors.” Scorpio, as the opposite sign to money and possession Taurus, additionally depicts our attitudes concerning the sharing of our material resources with others, and is related to such mundane things as joint bank accounts and jointly-held possessions.

Since Scorpio presides over death (or the dissolution of form) and rebirth, it is also connected to insurance and estate matters. It also rules taxes, surgery, and regenerative healing techniques. Scorpio is furthermore linked to psychic development, channeling, and the spirit world, and to metaphysical matters in general. Its intrinsic approach is always to “go deep” and ponder mysteries wherever they may be found.

With the Full Moon falling in Scorpio, it could be that some or many of the areas above may be more highlighted now. We are also more likely to be in touch with our deepest, most passionate desires (Scorpio) or innermost feelings at this time. We may also have to address issues from our buried past (with Scorpio they often suddenly rise to the surface). Or possibly face the truth about things that we have been avoiding. Again, too, the Scorpio Full Moon can easily solicit overreactions from us, especially if we are not mindful of our behavior.

Too, the Full Moon now could mark transitions or endings, or pivotal turning points (Scorpio). This Scorpio Full Moon is also making a challenging square to vague, dissolving Neptune in surrendering Pisces. It is additionally forming a tight quinqunx (adjustment aspect) to excessive, boastful Jupiter in impulsive Aries (sign of the military), cautioning us not to go overboard or gamble unwisely with our resources. Also, with Neptune’s “veiled ray” on the scene, we may need to guard against being hoodwinked or misled by others. We also would be wise, ourselves, to avoid doing anything that is nefarious or deceitful. Sometimes, too, with Neptune, we unwittingly lead others on by not being in full possession of all the facts. We simply spew out misinformation or just perceive things in a distorted way.

On a more positive note, this lunation still finds Mercury (thoughts) and Venus (beauty and love) side by side in gentle, laid-back Taurus, a very creative sign, and both in a harmonious, compassionate sextile to imaginative Neptune. Taking the time to put into words, our deep love and affection for each other, and engaging in random acts of love and kindness (Neptune), can have very uplifting consequences for all of us now. Also, this aspect is excellent for creating or purchasing art or other objects of beauty, including adding a few “to die for” items to our wardrobe. Too, with the rejuvenating properties of the Scorpio Moon also involved, now would be an ideal time for age-defying beauty treatments or makeovers. Neptune also rules cosmetics, and all manner of masquerade and disguises. It is interesting, too, how when we do alter our outward appearance, we often are related to differently.  In other words, it sets the stage for transforming responses from others.

“Men and women belong to different species, and communication between them is a science still in its infancy.” Bill Cosby 🙂

BTW, I read the other day that Oprah Winfrey (who has facilitated many personal makeovers through her show) plans to tape her talks shows for airing May 23rd and May 24th, on May 17th, at a special arena in Chicago, which will be able to hold over 20,000 of her fans. As an astrologer, of course, I immediately thought about the intensely emotional Scorpio Full Moon in affect and its fitting tie-in with poignant, transforming events, including farewells (endings). Too, with Mercury conjunct Venus in Taurus sextile idealistic, otherworldly Neptune (Neptune also rules the television camera), no doubt that Oprah will be magically “feeling the love” then from her audience and also the camera will be able to masterfully capturing the surreal (Neptune) images of this singular event.

As most of us know who faithfully watch Oprah, she is signing off with her daily syndicated talk show on May 25th, after being on the air for 25 years. She will still be actively involved with broadcasting, however, running her OWN network. Oprah has “Karma Lord” Saturn in Libra transiting at the very top of her chart now, near her tenth house of career. Often a time when one’s highest professional achievement is recorded.

Too, on May 25th, again the last day for the Oprah Show, the Sun will also fascinatingly be in communications Gemini and exactly sextile to futuristic Uranus in new beginnings Aries, signaling that some “big change is in the air.” Uranus also rules television broadcasting. The Sun-Uranus aspect also tends to coincide with more “unusual” or “out of the ordinary” (Uranus) events, and May 25th will, no doubt, go down in broadcast history as the day Oprah officially ended her talk show.  The Moon will also be in reflective, sentimental Pisces that day. We wish Oprah all the best, but at the same time, we will miss her daily show. Afternoons will no longer be the same without her beaming, re-assuring presence lighting up the television screen.

Patrice Astrology February 17, 2011: Sun Conjunct Neptune Daily Horoscope

COSMIC WEATHER:

“All men have need of the gods.” Homer

The empowering Sun conjuncts mystical Neptune. We have a desire to transcend the mundane in our search for deeper meaning. We are also more willing to let our ego needs take a backseat to the needs of others. Neptune is linked with self-sacrifice, even martyrdom. It also rules compassion, as well as our imagination. The keywords for Neptune are: “Serve or suffer.”

Meanwhile, the Moon remains in self-expressive Leo (gearing up for the Full Moon on Friday).  Perhaps by helping to raise others up (Neptune in Aquarius), we discover that we also shine (Leo) in the process.

“Only a life lived for others is worth living.” Albert Einstein.

A note of caution: The shadow side of Sun-Neptune tends to put us “in a fog.” It is often harder to see things clearly. We are also more prone to deception (either from self or others), and disillusionment. So we may want to keep more of a detached air about us, and stay more focused on facts rather than fantasy.

On a collective level, too, Sun-Neptune has historically been associated with “extremism” or “fanaticism,” especially religious fanaticism. This is mainly because with Sun-Neptune, we often feel that we are carrying out a “higher agenda” and therefore have carte blanche to do whatever we feel we need to do in order to further our perceived noble causes. Neptune also rules persecution. It additionally represents groups that are disenfranchised or down on their luck. The impoverished. People who traditionally have not had a voice.

With that said, this is highly creative energy, today and tomorrow, especially with the theatrical Leo Moon also at play. Too, Neptune rules visual images. Our ability for positive visualization is, therefore, very keen now. We may also want to pay closer attention to our Neptune-ruled dreams for pivotal clues to our subconscious meanderings.

“All the things one has forgotten scream for help in dreams.” Elias Canetti

Neptune’s colors are turquoise, green, and magenta. To tune into Neptune’s meditative ray, we may want to wear and or surround ourselves now with these colors. Also, we might consider burning incense and putting on soft, soothing music. Creating a more contemplative environment in our homes. Water therapy is also ideal, as Neptune rules liquids, gels, and the sea. Given that the Moon is also in entertaining Leo, we may want to take in a play or movie, or attend a concert.

Famous Birthdays February 17th: Michael Jordan (48), Paris Hilton (30), Gene Pitney (would have been 71)

“Some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, others make it happen.” Michael Jordan

On a personal note, I will be away from this blog for a few days. Taking a little “escapist” Neptunian break. 🙂

Patricia’s Astrology January 18, 2011: “What’s Lurking Down Below?” Horoscope

“A moment’s insight is sometimes worth a life’s experience.” Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

COSMIC WEATHER:

Moon continues in, “I always have food on my mind” Cancer. A cosmic cue to keep our little fannies scurrying around the kitchen. Keep in mind, too, that we have a Full Moon in emotional Cancer tomorrow. If we’re already feeling a little “teary-eyed,” it’s because of this factor.

Additionally, we have the third and final conjunction of intellectual Mercury with, “Let me take you down, way down” Pluto in “professionally-attired” Capricorn. (The earlier two Mercury-Pluto meet-ups occurred in December 2010.)

With Mercury conjunct perceptive Pluto we journey deep within our interior corridors, looking for answers to our troubled or shady past. Pluto is the guardian of our mysterious subconscious, and aligned with curious Mercury, some of our submerged or hidden contents may suddenly rise to the surface for a thorough and final inspection. This is an excellent time for arriving at mental breakthroughs pertaining to our past. We’re capable of “piercing insights” when we dig deep now. Our communications can also be more riveting and intense.

We’re also probing externally for the possibility of finding any hastily discarded lottery tickets that could be winners. Some of us, too, may be grappling with thoughts of disrobing, while we’re probing, since Mercury-Pluto can also be a little kinky. Of course, with the Moon in foodaholic Cancer, there’s a chance that the kitchen table may also be used for purposes other than setting our plates. 🙂

Last, but not least: We may want to go online and check out the current job openings at WikiLeaks. Mercury-Pluto is associated with spying, and covert operations, and with this conjunction falling in professionally-minded Capricorn, it may be a good time to submit our resume there for maximum impact. We may also want to underscore in it, the fact, that we have big connections at Kohl’s, in the coat department, which affords us generous discounts on all the latest trench coat fashions. A compelling reality that may sway Julian Assange to bring us aboard. Furthermore, we are even privy to Hillary Clinton‘s coat size, a matter that is closely-guarded by American embassies everywhere.

Patricia’s Astrology Horoscope November 5, 2010: Born Again Moon

04 Thursday Nov 2010

Anniversary of debut of board game Monopoly on November 5 1935, astrology, astrology for November 5 2010, astrology november 5 2010, astrology signs, board games, Boardwalk and Park Place, born again, channeling, conscious mind, estate matters, free horoscope, horoscope, horoscope for november 5 2010, horoscope november 5 2010, insurance matters, Mars in Capricorn, mars trine uranus, New Moon in Scorpio November 6 2010, Pluto in Cancer, psychotherapy, renewal, Scorpio Moon, scuba diving, seance, secrets, spying, subconscious, The Drifters, Under The Boardwalk The Drifters YouTube Video, uranus in taurus, Venus in Virgo, Venus sextile Pluto, weeding, zodiac, zodiac signs

COSMIC WEATHER:

The Emotional Moon enters “Re-birthing” Scorpio (2:16 am EDT), a place where she is gloriously “born again.” The Scorpio Moon is also readying herself for her monthly, renewing, “New Moon” phase, that will occur on Saturday (12:52 am EDT) at 13 degrees of the sign. New Moons signify “new beginnings,” so this one in “regenerating Scorpio” is suggestive of a “double dose” of rejuvenating energy.

Scorpio, the sign of life, death, and transition, symbolizes the elusive, subconscious region of our psyche, also referred to as the “sleeping mind.”

The Scorpio New Moon foreshadows a probing journey inside ourselves, to the very core of our being, that allows for us the chance to momentarily eye, and be altered by, that darker, mysterious chamber (the subconscious), that is normally sealed off to our conscious, waking self.

What inner treasures, within this “Sleeping Giant,” will the New Moon in Scorpio spy, and surreptitiously bring back with her, to the surface of our empowering consciousness, for us to stealthily pirate away? It could be that “only time will tell,” as “mum is the word,” always the word, for the Secretive Scorpio Moon.

What we want to do now is pay closer attention to the “unfolding events” in our lives, both internally and externally, over the next two weeks (from the New to Full Moon), and see how the changing landscape around us positively fits into our own quest for critical self-renewal.

Acitivities highlighted today: seances, channeling, psychic experiments, meditation, psychotherapy, treasure-hunting, antiquing, weeding, detox, spying and espionage, sharing secrets, scuba diving, plumbing, purging and recycling, reviewing insurance and estate matters, attending to joint financial matters.

Quote for the Day:

“If our subconscious was attractive, we wouldn’t have to bury it down deep within us.” Doug Coupland

This Date in History:

On November 5, 1935, Parker Brothers launches “Monopoly.” Venus, denoting activities “that we love,” was in analytical Virgo, a perfect sign for strategizing board games. Venus was exactly sextile to Transforming Pluto in “Real Estate Ruling” Cancer. Venus-Pluto can signify an all-encompassing, riveting passion.

Pioneering Mars was also in “All-Business” Capricorn and trine to “Risk-Taker” Uranus in “Acquisition-Minded” Taurus, fueling our materialistic desires to want to amass a “monopoly” of holdings. The Moon was also in “Fantasy-Loving” Pisces, kindling our preoccupation with “make believe” pastimes.

Since “Monopoly” was created, more than one billion people have played it, making it the most popular board game in history.

Happy 75th Birthday, Monopoly! And, many more.

Patricia’s Astrology Horoscope October 23, 2010: Our Shadow Side

23 Saturday Oct 2010

COSMIC WEATHER:

The Illuminating Sun enters Dark Scorpio (8:35 am EDT) shining her bright light on our “Shadow Side,” that subconscious region of ourselves that is the compendium of all of our most bewitching elements: fears, phobias, anger, jealousy, and other assorted offerings.

The Sun also joins Mental Mercury, Love Goddess Venus, and Sexual Mars in Scorpio, reinforcing and intensifying the deeper emotional emphasis. With Karma Lord Saturn, also in Relationship Libra, it could be that there are a few things that we are feeling particularly guilty about now, especially on the romantic front.  We need to learn how to let go of the guilt. Free ourselves from our inner shackles. Scorpio energy is all about “regeneration” and “repair.”

Additionally, the Moon is in practical, materially-minded Taurus today. While we’re dealing with our weightier, emotional issues, we may also want to find some time to balance our checkbooks and pay a few bills.  The Taurus Moon is also a great time to commune with nature. It would probably be a good day to plant some bulbs.

Quote for today:

“Afflictions are but the shadows of God’s wings.” George MacDonald

On This Date In History:

On October 23, 1814 the first plastic surgery is performed (in England). Venus, the planet of beauty, was exactly conjunct Mars in Libra (the sign that Venus rules). Libra also has to do with beauty and harmony, smoothing out difficulties.  Perhaps, in this case, smoothing out wrinkles and crows feet, so as to render a more pleasing Venusian appearance? Not sure of all the particulars regarding this first plastic surgery. Whether it was a nose job, tummy tuck, or maybe a breast augmentation. Mars also denotes surgeons.

The Moon was in hi-tech, experimental Aquarius.

Mental Mercury was in Scorpio, the official sign of surgery (Scorpio is formally co-ruled by Mars and Pluto). Mercury was in a harmonious trine aspect to Transforming Pluto in Fantasy Pisces. Pisces, ruled by Neptune, deals with illusion and make-believe. (Pisces also rules cosmetics.)

Mercury-Pluto is often synonymous with notable ability for problem-solving, figuring things out, solving mysteries. In this instance, it was focused on figuring out how to turn back the hands of time, to the days of luscious, supple, more smoother skin, minus any unnerving age spots.

Also to “seal the sutures” that day, Sexy Venus and Mars were in a healthy, supportive sextile to Neptune, who was, of course, “masquerading as someone much younger.”

COSMIC WEATHER:

The Emotional Moon continues in “Speed Demon” Aries. We’re all fueled up. Our motor’s running. We do need to keep a watchful eye out for the Highway Patrol, though, as “Law Officer” Mars is semi-square to “Ticket-Happy” Saturn (11:11 am EDT). (If we recklessly break rules now, there may be a price to pay!)

We also need to refrain from “over-indulgence” with Love Maven Venus in Sexy Scorpio sesquiquadrate to “Can’t Get Enough Of Your Love” Jupiter in “Fantasy-Prone” Pisces. Too much sex could additionally make vacuuming seem less than thrilling later on, and we certainly wouldn’t want that.

Activities spotlighted today: sports and physical activity, letting off steam, taking stands, involvement with the military, investigating passions, being a pioneer, breaking records, soaring to the top, vacuuming the interiors of race cars, purchasing checkered flags, donning “authoritative uniforms.”

Quote for the Day:

“It is often the failure who is the pioneer in new lands, new undertakings, and new forms of expression.” Eric Hoffer

In The News:

Venus in Scorpio “never forgets!”

On October 9, 2010, with “Love Goddess” Venus having just turned retrograde in “Sexually Obsessed” Scorpio and the Emotional Moon also passing through “Dark Moods” Scorpio, reportedly “Ginni Thomas,” the wife of Supreme Court Justice, Clarence Thomas, left a voice mail for Anita Hill imploring her to recant her account of Clarence’s alleged “sexual harassment” two decades earlier.

The sign of Scorpio rules the subconscious, those realms inside of us that are “submerged” or “hidden from view.” It is also characteristically known for “its venomous sting” (just like the real-life Scorpion) and stirring up “buried issues from the past.” (Scorpio symbolizes death and rebirth.)

Relationship Venus turning retrograde, too, is a time when we “revisit matters of the heart.”

Also on Wednesday, the new UK coalition govt announced massive spending cuts, the biggest in decades.  This announcement came with Pioneering Mars in “budget-minded” Scorpio (the sign associated with debt and collections) exactly trine Philosophical Jupiter in Social Programs Pisces. Mars trine Jupiter is a classic signature of “zealotry“ and “political and social activism,”  a time when we are extremely eager to go to bat for our beliefs and ideals, even to the point of fanaticism. Jupiter also rules politics.

Also relevant here: the North Node of the Moon (pointing to the future) is nearing a conjunction with Decimating and Controlling Pluto in Governmental Capricorn. Pluto likes to bulldoze existing structures and often does so with a vengeance.  Pluto, as a co-ruler of Scorpio, also signifies “debt-issues.”
