COSMIC WATCH:

“The art of love…is largely the art of persistence.” Albert Ellis

Venus, goddess of love and beauty, is exactly conjunct desire lord Mars in earthy, pampering Taurus today, a potentially very romantic time when we may want to go ahead and try to make an intimate connection with “someone special.” Venus and Mars aligned tends to amplify our desires, making us want to seek out pleasurable activities with others that indulges our senses. It is also an excellent aspect for artistic creativity, especially since this pairing is occurring in talented Taurus, a sign which naturally makes it easier for us to give tangible expression or form to whatever is visualized in our mind’s eye. Gardening is also a favored activity today.

Also, the Moon continues her passage through friendly, civic-minded  Aquarius, additionally encouraging us to reach out and do for others and or espouse causes bigger than ourselves. Love could even blossom in connection with immersion in group matters.

Intellectual Mercury, governing our thinking, is also forming a 150-degree (quinqunx) aspect to cautionary Saturn in balancing Libra. This wavering Mercury-Saturn aspect could make us second guess or doubt ourselves at times, or suggest to us that we might be wise to adopt some back up strategies for our plans.

Enjoy your Monday!

“It is not necessary to change. Survival is not mandatory.” W. Edwards Deming

COSMIC WEATHER:

Energy planet Mars, symbolically depicting the urge for self-assertion, takes the big plunge and officially sky-rockets into hi-tech, futuristic Aquarius, the opinionated, scientific home of wacky astronomers waxing delusional and very bitterly about 13 zodiacal signs. (See link below)  Mars will stay in this sign until February 22nd.

With Mars in Aquarius, a sign which represents cultural diversity and “changing things up,” we are eager to venture off into unchartered waters, as long as we are able to cart along, of course, our smart phones and other technological gadgetry. Aquarius rules innovation and invention, especially more of a scientific or technological nature.

Theoretically we “progress” now by embracing or cultivating change, and utilizing new approaches or strategies in our daily endeavors. As part of this orientation we may want to collaborate with more original-type thinkers, or more non-comforming types, to get a fresh take on things.  We may want also to expand our networking efforts now and get involved more with group causes, or group ventures (Aquarius rules groups and friends). Mars in Aquarius = energy for groups.

The Moon also enters curious, loquacious Gemini today. In Gemini, the Moon provides us with more of a penchant and willingness for flexibility. In other words, more of an ability to go with the flow. We’re not as rigid now, and we’re also wanting to physically move around. We have more of a capacity to see the humor in any situation, too, as this Moon tends to be more light-hearted and likes to laugh. Humor is a positive trait that often gets overlooked, but it’s something that can come in handy for coping with the mighty stresses and woes of living in Madonna’s material world, but, unfortunately, without Madonna’s nifty checkbook to tote around.

Questions to entertain with Mars deposited in Aquarius:

How are we about embracing change? Do we welcome new strategies, or prefer to stick with the tried-and-true?

Can we recall a time when we tried a new approach with something and it saved the day for us?

Is there any one area in our life now that could perhaps benefit by employing new methods? What about changing aspects of our sex life? Mars does rule sex. Hmmmm. Sex life??? Can’t quite recall what that’s all about? ::scratches head::

If we could change one thing about ourselves, what would it be? Our nose? Our brain? The pattern of our fingerprints?

How are we at interfacing with groups of people? Comfortable? Uncomfortable?

Are we more of a leader, or a follower?

Are there any social or humanitarian causes that we could maybe get involved with now? Aquarius pertains to immersion in matters that benefit the collective.

What is the most off-the-wall thing we have done in the past year? Have we even done anything off-the-wall, lately? If not, why not? Could it be that we are packaged too tightly, and that we should give ourselves permission to roam around a little, or a lot? Especially when we are trying to locate the ever-elusive George Clooney.

“They must often change, who would be constant in happiness or wisdom.” Confucius

With Mars in Aquarius, this is the time to take bold, decisive action to get out of our ruts. Out of our stagnation. We should never allow ourselves to think that change is not possible for us. It is, and now is the time to seek out that change! This is also an excellent time for putting new systems or procedures into place. In other words, erecting new infrastructure.

One project that I personally intend to do now is get rid of the ancient computer PC in my home-office. I never use it. All it does it sit on the computer table taking up space. This scenario has been going on for over a year now, ever since I got my new laptop, because I have been terrified at the thought of having to deal with all the plugs and cords, etc. plugged into the computer. Plus, I don’t know how to clean the hard drive. I have decided now, though, that with Mars in hi-tech Aquarius I am going to somehow figure out how to proceed here and get rid of the frickin’ thing. Free up the chi energy around me. In fact, I am resolving to go through every room in my house and purge. I want the environment “different” around me now. I want to tap into the newness and freshness of Mars in Aquarius.

No, your zodiac sign hasn’t changed

“Opportunity is a bird that never perches.” Claude McDonald

COSMIC WEATHER:

Our enthusiasm knows no bounds as sexy, go-getter Mars sextiles fortuitous, expansive Jupiter, who is likely toting a large bag of goodies for us today. This is a super aspect! Great time to forge ahead with important projects, get things done, especially anything business-related, as Mars is still in ambitious Capricorn, which rules status, career, and reputation. Since Mars also rules sex there could possibly be big breakthroughs here as well, depending, of course, on the size and stature of the individual(s) we are involved with. Again, with Jupiter figuring prominently into the equation, bigger is definitely better, and very much preferred! 🙂

Also this is a more positive time for dealing with bankers, members of the military, politicians, journalists, writers, publishers, lawyers, teachers, travel agents, clergy, and athletes. Physical fitness and sports-related activities additionally get the green light. We’re loving competition now, as it gives us a golden chance to strut our hot stuff all over the place!

Our thoughts also become more pragmatic and success-oriented today with Mercury’s return to utilitarian Capricorn, where it will stay until February 3rd. We excel now by adopting a communication style that is more purposeful and strategizing. It is key now that we let others know exactly what it is that we are hoping to accomplish with respect to our major goals. A time to enlist the support of higher-ups four our noble causes.

Possible questions to ponder now:

What floats our boat or gets us excited?

If we could magically do anything today, what would we do? Change the lint filter in the dryer? Watch paint dry? Part our hair differently?

What is holding us back from doing those things that we secretly desire to do? Lack of money or resources? Lack of time? Lack of focus? Bad breath? Marital status?

What are our goals for 2011? What can we do this very day that will help to move us forward, closer to attaining those goals? Is there perhaps anyone we can bribe or pay-off to expedite our success? 🙂

Do we know anyone in high places that we can schmooze around with now, who can maybe open up a few doors for us? For instance, we may want to see if President Obama is available for perhaps lunch one day next week. Too, it will be our treat. No taxpayer expense involved. We don’t want to create a ruckus or encounter any backlash with the ongoing Pluto in governmental Capricorn purge mentality.

“When you examine the lives of the most influential people who have walked among us, you discover one thread that winds through them all. They have all been aligned first with their spiritual nature and only then with their physical selves.” Albert Einstein

Astrology January 10, 2011: Mercury Sextile Neptune, Mercury Square Uranus

“I can’t understand why people are frightened of new ideas. I’m frightened of the old ones.” John Cage

Cosmic Weather:

The Moon exits contemplative Pisces for pioneering Aries (10:24 am EST). A time when we may want to be starting something new or exciting in our lives. We also have intellectual Mercury in enthusiastic Sagittarius square to non-conforming Uranus, the planet of sudden change. This potent aspect tends to foster the formation of more non-traditional thinking.

Mercury-Uranus can also potentially speed up our thinking. We may want to, however, avoid making snap decisions until our thoughts and ideas have more time to gel.

Additionally, we have Mercury sextile to mystic guru Neptune, with Neptune ruling our link to the divine and also our psychic ability. This aspect may generate more of an intellectual desire to seek out more spiritually-based activities. Perhaps we may want to read more inspirational material, or books on psychic development. Neptune also rules our dreams, so this is an ideal time for paying closer attention to them now, and trying to unravel their magical symbolism.

Neptune additionally governs our imagination and creativity. This influence should considerably help to elevate or boost our creativity, and also help with our powers of visualization. Excellent day for any creative writing project (Mercury rules words), especially with the simultaneous Mercury-Uranus aspect, which can provide us with unique, original insights, along with a good measure of quirky thoughts, which can also sometimes be kind of cool. Neptune also rules imagery, so it’s a fantastic day for painting or photography.

Astrology January 3, 2011: Power, Purging, and Food Fights

03 Monday Jan 2011

“He who controls others may be powerful, but he who has mastered himself is mightier still.” Lao Tzu

“Well, it’s back to the daily grind for most of us today, as we get ready for the big eclipse new moon tomorrow. Regrettably, no more time to sit around and idly fantasize about George Clooney.

Fittingly today, we have the Moon in “busy bee” Capricorn (2:39 am EST) goading us on to be more productive. The main focus today is the Moon’s powerful conjunction to “Wikileaks’ director of intelligence” Pluto (12:42 pm EST), which can get us secretly involved with an array of clandestine power or control issues, particularly in the workplace. And, especially if we work for or around Hillary Clinton. 🙂

With Moon-Pluto, we often need to feel a heady sense of our own power and self-worth, and sometimes we try to achieve this by manipulating or controlling others, which can, of course, painfully backfire, triggering immense power struggles and vicious food fights. Especially since this conjunction is occurring about lunch time on the east coast, and in the D.C. area. So we need to tread carefully. Better, too, as Lao Tzu says, that we should seek to master ourselves instead. Especially maybe strive for more insight into whatever it is that is driving our desires. Pluto’s activated ray brings to the surface submerged emotions and feelings.

We may also want to see today if we can purge or eliminate (Pluto) redundant tasks or work duties, in a bid to become more self-managed and efficient. Always with Pluto, it is a good idea to try to pare things down, get rid of the bloat and excess. This includes, too, very discreetly passing any nasty, odorous digestive gas that may have been building up inside of us during the holidays. I also realize that this is a very delicate topic to discuss here, and am only doing so out of genuine concern for our physical well-being. Pluto does govern all forms of the excretion process, while the Moon rules food.

Additionally, it’s an excellent time for recycling. Pitch those things that we don’t want to have around us in 2011. An item that immediately comes to mind here: The bathroom scale! Get rid of the wicked thing!

In closing, here’s a perfect tie-in for today’s “budget-minded” Capricorn Moon. The front page of the Wall Street Journal, which reads: “Congress Targets Spending.” Pure delight to the tightwad Capricorn Moon’s eyes! Of course, we also have the Sun, Mars, and the previously alluded to “Pluto” in Capricorn, too. Adding even more zeal and passion to the budget-cutting process.

Some questions to maybe ask ourselves today:

Do we need to reign in our own personal spending?

What can we somewhat painlessly eliminate from our daily lives, that will have the net affect of putting more money in our pockets, at the end of each month?

Can we perhaps find new uses for old things, especially limpid male body parts?

Do we need to maybe start parting our hair on the right side now, in wake of the new republican-led congress in the U.S.?

The next question may be a bit of a stretch, but here it is: With the Moon in “teeth-ruling” Capricorn conjunct perceptive Pluto, should we maybe pay closer attention to how people eat and chew their food today, and perhaps note, for statistical and public health purposes, how many of them get noticeable food particles tragically trapped in their teeth? And what to do about it, if they do? Should we kindly chime in to a stranger in a restaurant, “Hey, buddy, I casually noticed you have a big, unsighly chunk of green spinach beside your front tooth that needs to immediately come out! Here’s some floss!” Maybe tell them, too, that we’re afraid if the spinach stays lodged in there for too long, it could become something permanent, and eventually that frightening reality could lead to massive epidemics of other people suffering the same plight. 🙂

A special treat for you today! Follow this link to business astrologer, Ellen Longo’s, forecast for the week. http://astro4business.com/

Astrology January 2, 2011: The Chatty Cathy Sagittarius Moon

“Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools because they have to say something.” Plato

Cosmic Weather:

“Open mouth, insert foot! That appears to be a likely scenario for today, due to the Moon’s lively stroll through Chatty Cathy Sagittarius, and also the Moon’s conjunction with fast talker Mercury (9:03 am EST). Sag is famous for speaking before thinking. Knowing this ahead of time, it may be wise for Sarah Palin to steer clear of Katie Couric today. Also, Vice President Joe Biden may want to pray for a sudden case of laryngitis.

Too, we may even want to go so far as tying up our tongues with rubber bands or something, when the Moon squares both bigmouth Jupiter (8:50 pm EST) and cranky Uranus (9:09 pm EST). A cautionary gesture in a bid to preserve the peace with loved ones. Additionally at this time, it would probably be very unwise to tell your significant other that they look fat in a dress. Or, that they really need to do something about their unsightly beer gut, as there could be major repercussions.” 🙂

Astrology December 30, 2010: Mercury Stations Direct in Sagittarius

28 Tuesday Dec 2010

Cosmic Watch:

The planet Mercury, governing travel, communication, contracts, and so forth, stations direct at 19 degrees of Sagittarius on December 30th at 2:22 am!

Mercury has been retrograde since December 10th. It turned retrograde at 5 degrees of Capricorn. It will officially be retracing its “shadow” until January 17th, when it gets back to that 5-degree mark.

When Mercury is retrograde, the overriding astrological perception is that there can be more general confusion, misunderstandings, reversals, travel snafus, etc. It is seen as a time when we “move forward” by actually “going backwards.”

In other words, we “review or mull over” our recent decisions or thinking on things. Ideally, the winged messenger retrograde cycle can also be an excellent time for tossing around new strategies in our head and then implementing them when Mercury stations direct.

Anyway, with Mercury direct again, we presumably have the green light from the cosmos to make important decisions, once again, negotiate contracts. We can also hopefully resume brushing our teeth in a forward motion. 🙂

*All times EST

Hope it’s a good one!

Sun Square Jupiter: Santa Claus Oprah Aspect

“You know you’re getting old, when Santa starts looking younger.” Robert Paul

Ho, ho, ho! The optimistic Sun in goodwill Sagittarius is energetically square jolly Jupiter in fantasy Pisces today (Dec. 16th at 4:47 pm EST). Too, due to Jupiter’s intrinsically generous, warm-hearted nature, Jupiter symbolizes “the Santa spirit” in astrology.

Sun square Jupiter is often a time when we are characteristically wanting to be a little more giving and generous to others with our time, talent, and bundle of resources. Not a bad thing at all!

The only pitfall here: We must be careful not to over-promise, or over-commit ourselves. We need to avoid excesses altogether. No easy task, as we are feeling much more revved up about our abilities and capabilities now. We also have our inspired eyes on the “bigger picture.” Our hope and faith are merrily a twinkle.

Also, we are wanting so much to wholeheartedly believe in the good in other people now, and in fairy-tale endings. Finally meeting the prince after kissing way too many frogs. “Santa Claus Oprah” putting a trip to Australia in our holiday stocking, too, along with keys to a new car.

WikiLeaks Founder Gets Bail With Aries Moon Square Pluto

14 Tuesday Dec 2010

WikiLeaks Founder, Julian Assange, has been granted bail today by a British Judge. Assange was arrested a week ago in London after two women accused him of sexual misconduct in two separate incidents in Sweden last summer.

Notable here from an astrological angle: Assange received bail this morning with the Moon at 4 degrees of action-packed Aries (Aries rules law enforcement and police matters). The Moon was also in an exact square to “news breaker” Mercury and “transforming” Pluto, both stationed at 4 degrees of Capricorn, and both part of the ongoing high-drama, “triple conjunction” in Capricorn, also involving “warrior” Mars.  The “square” aspect today served to force the matter of his bail, as squares force issues.

“Moon-Pluto” aspects tend to coincide with more emotionally-intense events, and often these events can impact the collective because Pluto rules the masses. Also, Pluto symbolically represents the elimination or purge process, it often brings a “release” or an “alteration” to matters. Pluto, though, can be very controlling and dictatorial, and today’s bail for Assange has several conditions attached to it.

Pluto also represents spying, secret information, and covert activities (WikiLeaks), and is additionally implicated in sex acts using force. The Moon-Pluto exact square aspect had the affect of bringing these issues temporarily to the forefront. It should also be noted here that Assange vehemently denies the sexual misconduct allegations of the two Swedish women.

Assange voluntarily turned himself in to British authorities last week when the Moon was in Capricorn at 5 degrees and tightly conjunct Mercury, Mars, and Pluto (the triple conjunction). Assange will face another court hearing on January 11.

Saturn Trine Neptune Beatles Begin Recording Sgt Pepper 11/24

24 Wednesday Nov 2010

Posted by in November 2010 Astrology

This Date In History:

November 24, 1966:

The Beatles begin recording sessions for their masterpiece eighth album: Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band which was later released on June 1, 1967. The group reportedly spent over 400 hours in the recording studio producing this one album. The BBC would later end up banning one of the songs from it, “A Day In The Life” out of reported concern over a supposed drug reference in the song, “I’d love to turn you on…”

On 11/24/66 the Moon was in fiery, pioneering Aries. Also, adding to the level of excitement that day: The illuminating Sun and Creative Venus were affectionately conjunct in storytelling Sagittarius, harmoniously trined to lucky, expansive Jupiter in showman Leo, the sign of entertainment.

Enterprising Mars, the ruler of trailblazing Aries, was in perfectionist Virgo and exactly conjunct “inventive genius” Uranus. Mars and Uranus were additionally in a close conjunction to transforming Pluto in Virgo.

So we had a cool host of intense, game-changing influences for the collective, in effect.

Ambitious Saturn, too, often billed as the “Lord of Karma,” was in Imaginative Pisces, the sign which rules music, and in an exact flowing trine to mystical, psychedelic Neptune (Neptune rules drugs).  Neptune is also the planetary ruler of Pisces. Of course, Sgt. Pepper had a very mystical, psychedelic theme to it. Drug Kingpin Neptune was also hanging out in revamping Scorpio at the time, maybe part of the reason why so many were trying to find “psychic redemption” then through mind-altering drugs.

Too, Neptune rules our dreams and fantasies, and when aligned favorably with “karma rewards king” Saturn, we often see the manifestation of our dreams (creativity) coming true. We are better able to give tangible form and shape (Saturn) to the products of our imagination (Neptune) i.e. through songwriting, poetry, painting, etc.

Traditionalist and status quo preserver Saturn in dreamy Pisces was also opposite the rebellious and personally liberating Mars, Uranus, and Pluto conjunction, delineating the general angst that was going on in the collective then among the new ‘hippie” generation for radical change and the older generation of yesteryear.  This angst was, of course, also artistically woven in a masterful way into the fabric of Sgt Pepper and even evident on the unique cover of the record album which was very original (Uranus), spacey and psychedelic (Neptune), and a likely game-changer (Pluto) for the music industry.
