The Moon has moved into Virgo, conjunct Vesta. Virgo is a sign of health. It is an earth sign, and applies its considerable skills to help people in a very practical manner. Nurses and health care workers (among others) abound in Virgo. Vesta adds an element of constancy. The Moon is synonymous with feeling, compassion and nurturing. It sounds like a very good thing to have in a pandemic, right? The Moon/Vesta in Virgo opposes Neptune, a planet of illusion/delusion, fan

The first words that occurred to me when I viewed todays sky map was "Oooh, the natives are restless." The Moon is still in the fire sign, Leo, and fire likes to DO something. The Moon can signify masses of people in mundane astrology. What are those masses of people interested in doing? Let's dive deeper. The Moon, still in Leo (see yesterday's post), is developing an opposition to Mercury (Journalists, media, science) rather than the Sun (The Leader). In the morning, t

The moon is full in Leo, opposite the Aquarian sun at 9 degrees. The Leo Moon will create a transiting t-square with the Sun in Aquarius and Mars/Uranus in Taurus. When Leo and Aquarius oppose one another, they are opposite in some ways, but can complement each other, too( fire and air element = combustion). They are both concerned with love and creativity, but come at very differently. Leo is concerned with personal love, personal creativity, personal applause. As a fir

There are some powerful connections today between the transiting Moon in 13 degrees Cancer (noon in Washington, DC) and the Sun at 13 degrees Cancer in the United States Sibley Chart. The will of the masses show alignment with the purpose of the Sun, our leader, in our country. Cancer is an extremely sensitive sign. That sensitivity calls for a secure environment. Security and safety are big concerns when there is a great deal of Cancer energy present. Articles of Impeach

The Moon is Gemini, very close to the north node in Gemini. The north node in Gemini, to me, is very much about the science of the vaccine - a vision for the future based on the science and logic of not only Moon in Gemini, but reinforced by Saturn/Sun/Jupiter/Pallas Athene/Mercury in Aquarius and Uranus in Taurus. The square between Moon/north node in Gemini and south node in Gemini AND Ceres/Neptune in Pisces speak to the difficulty of getting the product of that scientif

The Moon is in Gemini (mood of the masses is bent toward logic and science) and trines the Sun (Leader), Saturn (an experienced elder) and Jupiter (opportunity and optimism) in Aquarius (innovative, individualistic, technically savvy). When the Sun and Moon are trine, the planets are in air (ideas) and emotions and logic are in harmony. The head and the heart are in balance. The opportunity exists to move quickly forward. Gemini rules the 7th house of allies in the United

There is a lot of activity in Taurus right now. The Moon is in Taurus trine (harmony) Venus in Capricorn and both are sextile (build) Neptune in Pisces conjunct the healing Goddess Asteroid Ceres in Pisces. This looks like the people of America have emotions balanced with valuing principles and each other. Ready to go to work energy to build some healing. Healing for the pandemic and maybe for some unity in the country, too. Joe Biden also has Moon in Taurus. Taurus is

The king is dead! Long live the king! Suffice it to say, astrologers have been talking about the ominous joining today - very near exact - of Mars and Uranus in Taurus. When the God of War (Mars) joins the God of Revolution (Uranus), it gives a person reason for concern. The square to Jupiter and Saturn in Aquarius, which have begun a new cycle in the technologically savvy and innovative sign of Aquarius, supply tension to the old, traditional Taurean system of financial s

In such a volatile time, the ability to predict events is limited by the astrologers ability to imagine them. When Uranus is in the mix, and it is, an astrologer might say expect the unexpected. They wouldn't be wrong, but that is of limited help. I can describe the context, but use your imagination to play with the concepts. Today, the last day of the Trump presidency, the Sun in Capricorn (the Leader) i at 29 degrees - the final degree before entering Aquarius (a more de

The Moon has moved into Aries, conjunct Chiron, the deeply wounded Centaur of the zodiac. The Moon in Aries is focused on development of the self, and its presence next to Chiron signals an awareness of our own pain. Chiron can be a shaman, too, but in Aries, with the Moon in Aries, too, the focus may be personal. This pain can be empathetic, leading to compassion for others. Or it can be that an individual nurses grudges against the wrongs that hurt them in the first pla
