Venus and Jupiter Fuel Personal Growth

by | Jul 16, 2018 | Blog, Monthly Astro-Timeline

lunar eclipseThis week signals good things to come with Venus and Jupiter.  On Monday, July 16th the moon joined Venus in a conjunction that was easily visible in the western sky.

I describe Moon and Venus as the ‘sweetheart’ combination because it’s a special time for success in relationships.

Adding a lovely bookend to this week, on Friday, July 20th the moon conjuncts Jupiter. Think of the moon, or Luna, as a gigantic searchlight that illuminates the evening sky.

When Luna shines brightly on a planet, she activates it.  When the Moon forms a conjunction with Jupiter, people start thinking about expansion.  Jupiter says: “the bigger the better” and “give me more.”

With these stellar conjunctions, it’s a great week for your social life, but perhaps  a bit of heaviness lingers amid the fun and good times. This is because a look into the future shifts you out of casual conversation and into personal growth.

Growing in the Right Direction

The secrets of the upcoming full moon lunar eclipse of July 27th suggest that we are moving into a time of soul searching and personal exploration. Last week’s solar eclipse in Cancer triggered core issues. Now the two weeks between the eclipses acts as a calibration phase.  Thankfully we have harmonious and jovial lunar aspects of moon conjunct Venus and Jupiter this week.

By the end of July there will be five planets retrograde, a clear signal that it’s time for introspection and inner development.  Mercury stations retrograde next week on Thursday, July 26th, one day before the Aquarius lunar eclipse. Mars, Saturn, Neptune, and Pluto are also retrograde.

Great progress can be made under the retrograde signature, but the efforts must be made in the right direction.  Jupiter in direct motion, however, grants authority to your decisions made now.

Think of the rest of July and August as a time to lay your foundation. By the end of August both Mercury and Mars are re-engaged by being in direct motion.

If and when this work is done, you’ll move forward with accelerated personal power and more freedom.

What is really illuminated this week through Venus and Jupiter conjunctions are emotions around your values. What is really important? How can you get it? Can you overcome the fear of making a wrong decision?

A look into the evening sky is always inspirational, and there are several planets now visible. In addition to Venus and Jupiter, you can also see Mercury and Saturn. Mercury in Leo teaches us that communication is essential, and Saturn shines a light on your commitment and dignity.

Capricorn Full Moon

by | Jun 27, 2018 | Blog, Monthly Astro-Timeline

Hello and welcome to my astrology predictions for June 27 and the Capricorn full moon.

My Key phrase for this week is: Breaking Free

On Wednesday at midinght the summer full moon blossoms and lights up the night sky.

For those who watch the skies, this full moon has been omnipresent; each night growing in size and intensity. There is a reason why this full moon is so intense.

Saturn is in every way the Lord of this full moon. You might think that Saturn and the moon don’t have much in common, but there is a subtle yet powerful relationship.

The sign opposite Cancer is Saturn ruled Capricorn. With this dynamic always at play, there is a harmonic relationship between the two signs.

It has to do with the strength of an opposition; your relationship with the ‘other’. This may be your spouse, your parent, your child, or even your boss. For Cancer, the tie to Saturn ruled Capricorn is always present.

And it is the lessons of Saturn that give definition to the soft, moonchild, Cancer.

The winning solution, of course, is to be in balance but to always choose to honor your own needs first. There are many things that change, but this is one thing that is constant in astrology. The full moon will always be in the sign opposite of the sun.

Now, with the Sun in Cancer, you can know that the full moon is in Capricorn – a sign ruled by Saturn. Adding to the power of this lunation, on Wednesday, June 27th, the day before the moon ripens full, we have a full blown Sun/Saturn opposition.

Set My Soul Free
The sun opposing Saturn on the 27th urges you to break free but it also brings up all of the reasons why you think that you cannot.

The Capricorn full moon intensifies your Saturn issues by asking these questions:

What are the ties that bind you?
What is your path to breaking free?
Where do you hold ancestral bondage in your body?

Plus, on Tuesday the 26th, Mars stations retrograde. Translated, this all speaks to owning your power and not giving it away! Nobody can really ‘make ‘you do something you don’t want to. The stars are urging us all now to break free – release old habits, relationships, patterns, anything that holds you back.

Astrology Predictions June 18 – Summer Solstice

by | Jun 18, 2018 | Blog, Monthly Astro-Timeline

Hello and Welcome to my weekly astrology prediction Star Cast for June 18th and the upcoming Summer Solstice.

My Key phrase for this week is: Balance and Focus.

Every year, month, week, and day we are given guidance from the stars.

People have looked to the sky since ancient times to learn how to live in harmony with the cycles of nature. And, this week brings us to one of the more notable times of the year – Summer Solstice on Thursday, June 21st.

Solstice is also the same day that the Sun leaves Gemini and enters Cancer, and it’s one of the turning points of the yearly cycle between the Sun and the earth.

For the ancient skywatchers, solstice was a time when the sun had reached its most northern point. For three days, the sun stands still in the sky, and then it begins marking time and direction towards the south.

Solstice is considered to be a cosmic still point. For us here on earth, it’s a time to focus on the seeds you have planted.

For the ancient Vikings, summer solstice was a time to meet, discuss legal matters, and resolve disputes. This makes sense when taken in the context of a still point when things can be addressed with equality.

The best day for negotiating agreements this week is actually Tuesday, June 19th. A favorable Mercury trine to Jupiter, plus the moon in Virgo makes this a great day to speak your truth.

Remember, Mercury rules communication, and Jupiter has authority to make decisions. So, whether you need to speak with others; or have a deep moment with yourself, Tuesday is the day to do it.

However, be very clear in your communication because on Wednesday, Mercury trines Neptune. Things can be more confusing when Neptune adds an undercurrent of doubt (or change) to agreements made on Tuesday.

You want and need a true emotional agreement. With that achieved, it’s next important to move ahead straightaway because next week Mars stations retrograde, and you (or your contractual partner) may not feel as motivated.

In short, the sun, moon, and planets are slowing down do a midsummer lull. Relaxation is good, but this week is one to stay on track and not become distracted by your own lack of energy.

Often we feel that there are too many options to choose from. In this instance, tune into your emotional body for guidance as to which is your best choice. And, remember, often the next best step is the one that’s close at hand.

This week ends with a dynamic Scorpio moon which joins Jupiter in on Saturday afternoon. Both the Sun and Mercury are engaged; the Sun sextile Uranus and Mercury opposing Pluto. The message again is – stay Focused. Summer solstice is a halfway point, and time to evaluate your progress made this year.

Many rewards await your efforts, provided you maintain Focus.

Astrology Predictions for June11

by | Jun 11, 2018 | Blog, Monthly Astro-Timeline

My Key phrase for this week is: the power of your words.

This is destined to be an eventful week because every day this week has a major planetary movement.

Today and tomorrow are all important days to prepare for the Gemini new moon on Wednesday, June 13th.

This new moon is your time to implement all of the gifts of Mercury.

Speech, making plans, and writing are all activities that are brought to Light now.  Gemini and its ruling planet, Mercury, give us the gift of consciousness; or, being aware of being aware.

Think of the great Masters and spiritual teacher. We remember them by their words as well as their acts. This is great week to sit with the teachings of your most meaningful mentor.

Take time and go deeply into the wisdom of your teacher. And then, in the nature of Gemini, the twins, you can pass it along. Even if you only live your life as a positive role model, you are both a student and a teacher.

In fulfilling this eventful week, on Tuesday, June 12th, Mercury changes signs and enters Cancer. The astrological message here is that you can more easily express your emotions. But, first you must get in tune with how you really feel.

On Wednesday, in addition to the Gemini New moon, Venus enters Leo. This is a beautiful and glittery placement and it will assist anyone who wants to look better.

If you feel a need to begin a dietary detox or institute a change of eating habits Tuesday is the perfect day to begin. This is about presenting yourself to the world in a more positive light.

On Thursday, Venus square Uranus activates sudden endings. If you’re feeling unsettled about a relationship, this is a good day to talk. Be prepared, however, for a final resolution.

Next on this busy week, Mercury opposes Saturn on Friday. This is another great aspect for getting to the point in relationships. Mercury and Saturn move you beyond formal niceties and get to what needs to be said and done.

Get ready for a busy and monumental week! Decisions are made and things get done.

Sagittarius Full Moon May 29

by | May 29, 2018 | Blog, Monthly Astro-Timeline

The Rainbow Affirms the Protection of Jupiter

Being ruled by  Jupiter, the Sagittarius full moon always comes bearing gifts.

To understand Sagittarius you must look to the rainbow, a cloak of many colors. Since ancient times the rainbow has symbolized our relationship with the divine.

Although Sagittarius is a fire sign, his emblem is formed by Light shining through water. The iridescent colors of the rainbow are how the archer releases his fire.

With a grand water trine between Jupiter, Neptune, and Venus, the fiery archer must find strength. So, how does Sag find happiness in a water world?

Jupiter, the ruling planet of Sagittarius is in Scorpio and busily engaged with Neptune in Pisces.  Venus in Cancer seals the deal by completing a grand water trine, exact on Friday and Saturday, June 1st and 2nd.

But, we must find his fire sign allies and a most interesting friend appears – Chiron in Aries!

Chiron feeds (and is fed by) this Sagittarius full moon.

In Aries, Chiron heals your ‘I AM’ presence; he makes it personal and yes, all about YOU.

Plus, the north node, although not a planet, holds court in Leo, exactly trine the Sag moon degree.

The north node illuminates your navigational path to soul growth and it powerfully shines a Light on your Life Purpose. Standing in harmony with the full moon, the north node illuminates your most sacred act. The north node urges you to discover the reason you were born on the earth at this time.

Another hidden player assisting the fiery Sag moon is the asteroid Juno in Aries. Juno wears the goddess crown, and she speaks to your commitment. The goddess asks: can you move beyond your past hurts and betrayals?

Like the rainbow, Juno teaches you to transform your shadow into a shimmering robe.

Sagittarius Full Moon Gifts

A grand trine represents spiritual gifts, and with both a fire and water trines, this full moon harmonizes:

Desire – Jupiter in Scorpio
Compassion – Neptune in Pisces
Willingness – Venus in Cancer

Spiritual Guidance – North Node in Leo
Commitment – Juno in Aries
Healing Grace – Chiron in Aries

May this Sagittarius full moon release all gifts – those which you have to give, and the ones you are to receive.

Astrology Predictions May 21

by | May 24, 2018 | Blog, Monthly Astro-Timeline

My Key phrase for this week is: Awareness

This is a full and dynamic week with two unique planetary oppositions. The opposition is an aspect that calls for and teaches awareness.

Think of it as entering a store that holds the exact thing that you’ve been wanting so badly. Maybe it’s candy, or a car, or a certain kind of relationship.

But, first you must cross a dangerous looking moat that makes the object of your desire appear even further away, although you are so close.

But, you still have to figure out how bridge that last gap. That is the astrological opposition; you’re so near, but not there yet. This week on Wednesday, May 23rd Mercury opposes Jupiter, and on Saturday, Venus opposes Saturn. I’ll break it down.

Mercury Opposing Jupiter

Mercury opposing Jupiter is the ultimate awareness aspect. Mercury the messenger gives a name to your desires. He identifies and then speaks the words of what you want – this is helpful because you must always get focused in order to really manifest something specific.

And, Jupiter grants your wishes! So, Jupiter and Mercury are a good combination to get what you want; but you must bridge the gap.

The opposition requires a strategy, and it often helps to think outside the box. Maybe it’s time to revisit an old situation but with new expectations and boundaries.

The Sun trine Mars on Wednesday is another aspect that helps you take on a task, but this time with a new set of rules. With the Sun in Taurus, and Mars in Capricorn (plus Uranus now in Taurus) – you can do anything; these two earth signs will fuel your manifestation abilities,

Venus Opposing Saturn

Venus opposing Saturn on Saturday, May 26th is a similar message but with a different flavor. Venus and Saturn are all about commitment. You’ve made your wishes known; now Venus and Saturn ask if you’re willing to commit to the task at hand.

Venus opposing Saturn can make you lose heart unless you apply your wisdom and knowledge. You may want to flee, to run away and hide rather than actually cross the dangerous moat that keeps you from what you want.

But again, you must figure out a way to bridge the gap. What you need is a good boat and ferryman; someone to help take you where you want and need to go.
