COSMIC WATCH:

“That rolls to its appointed end.” William Cullen Bryant

A perfect day for winding down our affairs as we have a void-of-course Moon in sentimental Cancer and a New Moon in sunny Leo tomorrow. Mental Mercury in analytical Virgo also opposes fuzzy Neptune in fishy Pisces making decision-making possibly more convoluted today. When Neptune’s ray is activated matters tend to get obscured and we may be missing key facts. However, this same aspect could be a boon for creative types as Neptune governs our imagination. Neptune also presides over film, photography, dancing and aquatic activities.

A note of caution: Mercury goes retrograde August 2nd! A period when we often revisit and or reverse our previous decisions or plans. Something to keep in mind now.

Enjoy your Friday!

Astrology July 19, 2011: “Go With The Flow” Moon in Pisces

COSMIC WATCH:

“I deepen my experience of God through prayer, meditation, and forgiveness.” Marianne Williamson

The waning Moon remains in yielding, meditative Pisces encouraging us to “go with the flow” instead of offering up any formidable resistance. Overall, an excellent day for wrapping things up or putting old issues to bed. Although, we may need to consciously guide ourselves to stay on track.

Early afternoon, the Moon’s trine to sweet Venus in caring Cancer (2:43 pm EDT) helps to strengthen our bonds with loved ones. Venus is also sesquiquadrate to wounded healer Chiron suggesting that this may be a good time to placate old wounds.

A seed of challenge for us today is the Moon’s square to restless Mars in communicator Gemini (4:45 pm EDT), at which time we may need to stand sentry over our temper and or refrain from making any hurtful remarks.

“Have a heart that never hardens, and a temper that never tires, and a touch that never hurts.” Charles Dickens

Famous People with Moon in Pisces: Elvis Presley, Jerry Seinfield, Michael Jackson, Prince, Hillary Clinton, Winona Ryder

Events in the News: With the Moon steeped in her “waning phase” and  cloaked in “dissolving” Pisces, the last sign of the zodiac, we are collectively seeing the “passing away”of some old, familiar structures now. One positive thing about the Pisces Moon is that it helps to get us “resigned” to the inevitability of certain things occurring, as part of the natural rhythm of life. Too, we know that endings make possible new beginnings.

Some “endings” perhaps worth noting now:

1)  The Space Shuttle Atlantis is scheduled to undock from the International Space Station today for the last time in the history of the space shuttle program.

2) “Borders,” the 2nd largest U.S. bookstore chain, announced yesterday that it’s liquidating all of its remaining bookstores and idling some 11,000 workers.  It should also be mentioned that initiating Mars is in Gemini now, the sign of reading and books. As Mars passes through a sign it will often prompt the taking of action in conjunction with the affairs ruled by that sign. With the liquidation of Borders, we are also witnessing the ending of a previous way of life – people reading physical books.

3) U.S. General Petraeus gave up command of the Afghan war Monday to head the CIA. Of course, the U.S. government is also taking measures to reportedly draw down the number of troops in Afghanistan.

4) News Corp head, Rupert Murdoch, whose media empire has been seemingly imploding, as of late, is slated to testify before lawmakers in the U.K. today about the alleged “phone hacking” scandal.

Interestingly, this scandal investigation really began heating up shortly after  warrior Mars launched into communication Gemini in late June. Gemini rules both telephones and news gathering and reporting. Too, Mars’ passage through Gemini is serving to school many of us on the apparent workings of the tabloid news industry. Showing us the drastic lengths that some reporters will allegedly go to, to get their story out there. Hopefully, the purported phone hacking isn’t pervasive in the industry, though. Although, this story has also spotlighted how public officials, even law enforcement officials, can often have “too cozy” a relationship with members of the media.

BTW, Murdoch, a Pisces Sun, has “purging” Pluto conjuncting his 3 degree Capricorn Ascendant now. The Ascendant is the window by which we view the world. Too, with the Moon in “atoning” Pisces, Murdoch is called upon to publicly give a full accounting of his company’s missteps.

Do you still read “old-fashioned” books or have you switched to the Kindle or some other electronic reading device? I must admit, I still have an affection for the “real thing.”

Enjoy your Tuesday!

Astrology July 18, 2011: Moon in “Mystical” Pisces

COSMIC WATCH:

“The mystical life is the center of all that I do and all that I think and all that I write.”  William Butler Yeats

The Moon enters “mystical” Pisces (1:13 am EDT) and conjuncts “fantasy” Neptune (2:02 am EDT), the planetary ruler of Pisces. Making the connective thread to “reality” possibly more tenuous for us. Neptune governs our imagination.  It also rules our nocturnal dreams, which we may want to pay more attention to now. Psychologist, Carl Jung, said that we should embrace our dreams as “communications from the unconscious.”   Neptune is also the portal through which we enter “other realms.”

About mid-day, the Pisces Moon’s sextile to transforming Pluto (12:17 pm EDT)  is an opportune time for healing and renewal. Also, what has been hidden from view, may now be revealed.

Later, the Moon’s linkup to abundant Jupiter in sensual Taurus (3:52 pm EDT) puts the pleasures of the earth plane magically within reach. This aspect also helps fuel our optimism.

Famous Birthdays: Former astronaut,  John Glenn, the first American to orbit the Earth, turns 90 today. What I find most intriguing about his horoscope is “otherworld” Neptune, in flashy Leo, is exactly conjunct his 9th house cusp, which is the house of long-distance travel.  He also has Uranus, the planet of aviation that governs the space program and astronauts, exactly trined to transforming Pluto, with the trine being a more harmonious alignment.

Ironically, we presently have transiting Uranus in a more stressful square aspect to Pluto now, with Pluto in “budget-minded” Capricorn. The U.S. space shuttle program (Uranus) will be officially ending (Pluto) this week when Atlantis returns to Earth (Pluto presides over both death and rebirth). Probably not the kind of birthday present John Glenn had in mind.

How do you feel about traveling into outer space? Would you go? Is it a waste of taxpayer money?

“I don’t know what you could say about a day in which you have seen four beautiful sunsets.” John Glenn

Enjoy your Monday!

Astrology July 17, 2011: Moon Remains in “Altering” Aquarius

COSMIC WATCH:

“Stay committed to your decisions, but stay flexible in your approach.” Tony Robbins

The “ingenious” Moon in Aquarius is our clever companion and confidante for one more day.  No matter what we choose to share with her, she will likely be able to offer up original insights on the topic. Too, with the empowering Sun in “domestic” Cancer, we may want to use this “brilliant” Aquarian energy to change things up on the home front.   For instance, we may want to rearrange the furniture today. Or maybe go shopping for some unusual decorative pieces.

Of course, another easy way to perk up or revitalize our rooms is to put out fresh flowers. Flowers not only beautify our surroundings, and add lovely aromas, they also give oxygen. (BTW, orchids are ruled by Aquarius, while Cancer, governs white flowers and lilies.)

When we do make positive changes in our personal environment, they often have the net affect of invigorating other aspects of our lives, by helping to free up the “chi” or “energy flow” around us. The changes signaling to our subconscious a receptivity or willingness to try new things.

Do you feel energized or uplifted by your surroundings?

“Decorating is not about making stage sets, it’s not about making pretty pictures for the magazines; it’s really about creating a quality of life, a beauty that nourishes the soul.” Albert Hadley

Famous Birthdays: Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, turns 64 today. Camilla has her Sun, Moon, Mercury and Venus all in “self-protective” Cancer in her 12th house of seclusion. She likely values her privacy and is probably content in a “behind the scenes” role. Her Sun, indicating the man (or husband) in her life, is also harmoniously trine to Jupiter, the planet of royalty.

Camilla did indeed “find” her prince (Jupiter). Although, the pathway to “Prince Charming,” and “happy ever after,” was, as we all know, a bit complicated for Camilla. We hope the Duchess has a very happy, 64th birthday.

Enjoy your Sunday!

Astrology July 15, 2011: Full Moon in Capricorn

COSMIC WATCH:

“Work, love and play are the great balance wheels of man’s being.” Orison Swett Marden

There’s a Full Moon in “career” Capricorn today (2:40 am EDT). Meaning that the Sun is in opposition to the Moon from “nesting” Cancer. With a Full Moon we aim to balance opposing forces. In this case, our “cosmic marching order” is to create a healthy equilibrium between our professional or outer world activities (Capricorn) and our obligations or duties on the home front (Cancer). We may also encounter real-life scenarios now that trigger “hands-on experience,” or offer “extra insight,” on exactly how to do this.

For instance, there could be a sudden event in the home arena that serves as a “wake-up call” for us to change or recalibrate our priorities at work. Perhaps the event makes us realize that we have been focusing too much on our career to the detriment of the needs of our immediate environment.  Or, vice versa. Maybe we have been too busy cocooning at home and now we suddenly realize that we need to re-engage again with the outside world. Perhaps we haven’t been working for a while and now we need to re-enter the work force to supplement the family budget.

Too, it could be that the Full Moon in Capricorn serves as a lightning rod for generating new revelations about our life’s work. Or, contribution to society. It may also be a good time to ask ourselves if we are truly happy or satisfied with the professional path that we have selected. Do we think that we are doing what we came into this life to do?

If not, we may want to make some changes now. Maybe scrap certain activities that have have become counterproductive or outmoded. We may even want to consider going back to school. Get new training to expand our job skills. The Full Moon in Capricorn does form an exact creative quintile with “change-agent” Uranus in “new beginnings” Aries. Uranus often demands that we “alter” or “reinvent” ourselves, so that we can lead lives that are a greater testament to our authentic being. And less a reflection of society’s or other people’s dictates for us.

Too, Uranus rules technology. This may be a good time to upgrade our tech skills in conjunction with our career (Capricorn). Or maybe employ some new technology to aid us in a job search.

“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.” Ralph Waldo Emerson

Happy Full Moon Blessings!

COSMIC WATCH:

“Whenever you’re in conflict with someone, there is one factor that can make a difference between damaging your relationship and deepening it. That factor is attitude.” William James

Little Miss Venus, the “loving glue” that binds us together, squares “withholding” Saturn in partnership Libra from the ultra-sensitive sign of Cancer. Venus-Saturn tends to elevate the fear and vulnerability factors in our relationships, with Saturn encouraging us to “wall ourselves off.” So it could be that it may be a bit harder for us to “stick together” or “to connect” now, unless we consciously choose to adopt a more cooperative or caring spirit that enables us to override  our more fluctuating moods or fragile sensitivities.

Too, with Saturn presiding over our responsibilities and sense of duty, Venus-Saturn can sometimes have us feeling that we are cast in a “ball and chain” role with no way out. Of course, this is not true. We always have choices available to us. With that said, we may still want to consider putting off that first, tender date with George Clooney, for another time, when the cosmic terrain is easier to navigate.

The Moon is also shifting into Saturn-ruled Capricorn this morning (10:14 am EDT), amplifying our desires to achieve our worldly ambitions. Also setting the stage for the potent Full Moon in Capricorn on Friday.

Astrology July 12, 2011: Moon is in “Roaming” Sagittarius

COSMIC WATCH:

“I see my path but I don’t know where it leads. Not knowing where I’m going, inspires me to travel it.” Rosalia de Castro

The Moon is in “roaming” Sagittarius all day, fueling our desire to want to explore open spaces and leave our magnificent mark on uncharted territory. This is perhaps especially the case, early on, when the Moon makes an opposition to energizing Mars in “restless sightseer” Gemini (7:56 am EDT) and then trines mental Mercury in “thinking big” on the wild prairie in Leo (8:21 am EDT). A day, too, when we are more likely to want to vigorously share our homespun views and massive insights about the “big picture,” as the Sadge Moon tends to incite an evangelistic thread in us. If we are also able to sell a little “snake oil” to fellow travelers on the mystical journey of life, so be it. 🙂

“Evangelism is selling a dream.” Guy Kawasaki

Do you feel comfortable in the “preacher” role? Do you have any planets in Sagittarius in your horoscope?

Famous People with Moon in Sagittarius: Charlie Sheen, Oprah Winfrey, Charles Dickens, Mariah Carey, Richard Gere, Vincent Van Gogh

BTW, today marks the first anniversary of the 164-year revolution of Neptune’s orbit around the Sun, since Neptune was discovered on September 23, 1846. (Would like to thank LillyRoddyShow@Twitter for this cool information.)

Astrology July 10, 2011: Moon in “Transitioning” Scorpio

10 Sunday Jul 2011

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!

Astrology July 9, 2011: Venus Sextiles Jupiter, Uranus Goes Retrograde

COSMIC WATCH:

“The greatest pleasure of life is love.” Euripedes

After having a rather rough go, the last few days, affectionate Venus in nurturing Cancer finally catches a lucky break today with her warm sextile to abundant Jupiter in earthly pleasures Taurus. Venus-Jupiter is often synonymous with “luck in love.” So, hopefully, this royal duo will be able to wave their magical wand for us and graciously shower us with a bonanza of romance. Or grant whatever is our heart’s fondest desire.

This aspect is also grand for entertaining and parties, with Venus also ruling our social life and Jupiter liking to do things on a lavish scale. Jupiter actually rules and symbolizes matters of royalty, and we have William and Kate, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, reportedly partying with the glamorous “Hollywood Jet Set,” this weekend, in LA. This is Kate Middleton’s first visit to the States. Wouldn’t you just love to be a “fly on the wall” at one of the planned celebrations?

The Moon is also in passionate Scorpio today, magnifying our desires and ramping up our ability to seize upon and claim the rich, intrinsic pleasures of the moment.

Of course, life is never simple and uncomplicated. We also have “wild child” Uranus, the planet of personal freedom and rebellion, stationing retrograde today in self-willed Aries. Whenever a planet changes direction, it tends to call more attention to itself (Uranus stays retrograde until December 9th). Although, we also have intellectual Mercury in theatrical Leo forming a stabilizing sextile to disciplined, conforming Saturn in diplomatic Libra today. This suggests to me that we do have the mental ability to “check” or “censor” our performances (Leo), if need be. Mercury sextile Saturn is excellent for both focused concentration and serious discussions.

Too, it may be an especially good day for talking about “affairs of the heart” (perhaps popping the big question?) with Mercury in romantic Leo and Saturn in matrimonial Libra. Too, lest we forget, we also have the indulgent, and very endearing, Venus-Jupiter sextile.

In the News: Sadly, I learned, this morning, that former first lady, Betty Ford, passed away, late yesterday, at the age of 93. I grew up in Grand Rapids, Michigan and for many, many years, Betty’s husband Gerald, our late president, served as our district’s congressman. My late mother also worked at Herpolsheimer’s department store with Betty Ford in Grand Rapids, in the 1940s, where Betty was employed as a model.

Tragically, this week in Grand Rapids, there was also a mass shooting that made world headlines. Seven people were killed. The shootings occurred at locations near where I have relatives living. My brother was also at a memorial last night for the shooting victims when all of a sudden, the event also turned into a memorial for Betty Ford, when it was learned that she had passed.

We had Venus opposite Pluto yesterday, an aspect that, historically, has coincided with the passing away (Pluto rules death) of prominent females (Venus rules women) in the collective. Pluto is also in Capricorn, the sign of government officials. Venus in caring Cancer also denotes Betty’s humanistic legacy with respect to establishing the Betty Ford Center in California for treatment of drug and alcohol addiction. Betty helped to take away the shame of addiction by boldly coming forward and publicly announcing that she had substance abuse problems at a time when it was unheard of for public officials to do so. Betty Ford was a pioneering Aries Sun, with her Moon in compassionate Pisces.

“My makeup wasn’t smeared, I wasn’t disheveled, I behaved politely, and I never finished off a bottle, so how could I be alcoholic?” Betty Ford.

COSMIC WATCH:

“They spoil every romance by trying to make it last forever.” Oscar Wilde

The Moon in social Libra points us in the direction of relationships. However, Libra’s ruler, sweet Venus, is also making a square to erratic Uranus, the planet of rebellion, so affairs of the heart could be somewhat unsettled. Venus-Uranus is often chocked full of twists and turns. With that said, it may also be wise for us to subdue any of our “wilder impulses” (Uranus) for the time being.

We also have a dynamic, very fortuitous trine today between Jupiter, the planet of opportunity and abundance, in financial Taurus, and rejuvenating Pluto in influential Capricorn. A time for us to aim high and reach for the stars with respect to our professional or career goals. This is also an excellent time for purging and letting go of the past, especially ridding ourselves of self-limiting beliefs and doubts about our capabilities. Jupiter-Pluto is also associated with “mega-wealth” (billionaires) and “mega-power,” making this an ideal time to network with high-profile types who may be able to magically assist us in our ascent to the top.

Interestingly, President Obama is also holding a “bipartisan debt discussion” at the White House today with Republican and Democratic leaders. Pluto is the planet that governs debt. Perhaps Pluto’s alignment with lucky Jupiter, may finally bring about some forward progress on the matter of raising (Jupiter) the debt ceiling (Pluto) in the U.S.

Personal Note: Below is a link to “Buckman Film Academy,” which is my niece, Sarah Nagy’s, film school for children in Portland, Oregon. I thought you may want to check it out. Sarah (a Leo Sun) is also presently selling some of her original artwork on the site. You can go to her site and then click on the “artwork for sale” tab, at the top of the page, and see what she is offering. I think her artwork is very cool. I’m so proud of her, especially the wonderful work that she does with children.

Enjoy your Thursday! Remember to temper those “wild impulses.” 🙂
