Oh, boy! The new moon is exact at 8 degrees of Leo at 8:12 p.m., ushering in a 14 day cycle of growth and exuberance in a sign of love, creativity and play! AND Mercury begins to turn its ship around and stations direct at 23 degrees Cancer. So, today, we may see the last gasps of that pesky Mercury retrograde....things are most strongly felt at the turnings - when Mercury stops, giving us time to absorb the full impact of perception and communication - before proceeding

The wind is at your back today. You can move ahead with the assurance that your actions will measure up to your beliefs and your sense of truth. You are still mediating the need for something new, a little edgy vis a vis life as you have known it, but for signs born early in the signs Leo, Taurus, Scorpio or Aquarius (or those with planets other than the Sun there), you are looking for some new experiences. The need for breaking the stalemate isn't going away...you might e

The tug of war continues...do you follow the socially acceptable route or follow your heart to find yourself? Approval for following the rules is certainly in store..and social approval is a highly enjoyable thing. Do what is dutiful and accepted, and you will be rewarded. But part of you wants to cozy up at home and think bold, new thoughts. That may be the way of the future...your heart knows a revolution in consciousness is possible. But there may initially be a cost

Today is a mother bear day. Just as Mother Bear fiercely guards the well being of her cubs, so do powerful men and women today. There are things about the status quo that Irritate and them and call for an adjustment. Actions and feelings unite to bring changes to the power structure that is holding sway. Words and actions need to be consistent, because words are going to pierce the fog of confusion and distraction that is being used by the male-dominated, conservative and

Ladies, it may be your day today for relationships. The feminine moon is in harmony with the masculine Sun in Leo which is holding hands with the very feminine and lovely planet Venus, the planet that rules both relationships and financial matters. In a larger sense, we all have a feminine and a male side. Today, they work to support the feminine, the creative, nurturing and caring relationships. It is also a good day for financial news regarding real estate and your home

In these last days of Mercury retrograde (it goes direct on August 1), there is some confusion. And it is felt a bit differently by the sexes. Both have a legitimate fear of their personal freedom being curbed, but for different reasons. For men, if they act (and they are so tempted to act rashly, given that Mars and Jupiter are both in action-oriented fire signs), it will be according to how they see the world working, They might act from principles, not the heart. The

It is a good day to penetrate the fog regarding relationships. It is a good day to speak up to your significant other or others. You are in touch with energies that reach deeper than usual into the realm of the unconscious and spirituality. Where do you have faith independent of the usual sources of wisdom - the church, the government, whatever your "ism" if authority is? You know there is a risk to speaking up, but your need to be a free individual is strong now. This is

Is someone or something from your past demanding attention, preventing you from moving forward on your own agenda.? There is a big fire element trine (planets are in the same elemental family - fire) in the sky today. Fire likes action and is impatient of delay. It can be impetuous. The planets involved are action oriented Mars, the emotional and sensitive Moon and Jupiter, planet of regal good fortune. There is a sense that doors are opening and you want to say "Yes!" to

Today is a great day to peel the onion - what do I mean by that? Just when you think you have reached a layer and understand it, you find another layer under that! So it goes with unconscious patterns of wounding. It is work to understand that your attitudes are unique to you - not necessarily the "truth" for everyone. Put another way, is a fish aware that it is in water? We can assume that's just the way things are - in romance, in career, in health or whatever. But may

We are walking on shifting sands, and I want to focus on "why" astrologically. A lot is happening now. It is all important to you personally and to the country and world. Because I'm USA based, I'll concentrate on that. I'll cover each factor, in a series of blog posts. I'm starting with Uranus in Taurus. Uranus will be in the sign Taurus now until April 25, 2025. It is a game changer, for sure, involving our planet, our finances and what we eat. Yeah, tell me who isn
