This is the new update there:

Sunday finds us walling in the residual gentleness of the Pisces Moon, but we are snapped back into reality by way of Mars in Libra making a harsh angle to it's ruler Neptune in Pisces, by lunch time. The planet of action and war, in it's weakest sign, does not make efficient use of energy.  You can find that you are using  more of your resources on niceties to avoid confrontations.
Monday the Moon moves in Aries calling us to action early in the morning. We feel the need to be doing something or going somewhere. This Mars ruled sign meets it's opposition by way of Mars in Libra around lunch and the excitement begins. Where Aries is direct and impatient Libra is evasive and patient.  Check you chart and ride the wave between the two extremes.  By dinner the Moon in Aries  refocuses it's reflection by making a sextile  to Jupiter in Gemini, which calls us to find a way to balance these energies which have the potential  to produce  beneficial and constructive outcomes.  However, the results you desire will require some  work.  We need to do some work, digging  deep into your  souls and find the truth at the core.  For Pluto's square the Moon, is calling us to be honest with ourselves about what we really feel. Volunteer to do the work  before Uranus makes a conjunction to the Moon.  Uranus will not allow us the  opportunity to flounder, it  will simple  rip the seems apart to force you to see  what needs to be exposed.  So be willing to give up that which is no longer useful to make room for the new to grow, and take form.
Tuesday, yesterdays theme intensifies by dinner with the Sun in Cancer when it forms a square to the Moon Aries. The clash of these two signs can produce a push pull tug of war on your feelings, so try to remain open to change and remember the only constant is change.  Remember that tomorrow evening things will change again.
Wednesday as the Moon comes into it's exalted sign of Taurus we begin to feel the fixity of it's sign. We may have been holding  on tightly to our beliefs.   Perhaps we need to review the past few days and loosen our grip. We maybe forced to  see the lack of value of some of the ideas we once held so dear.
Thursday as  morning unfolds we get a glimmer of help from Pluto in Capricorn to the Moon in Taurus in the form of a trine. This combination can help use see the utility of  making or accepting some of the changes that we felt so reluctant to do as the Moon made it's way into Taurus. Even if the Moon's square to Mercury in Leo  finds this alliance hard to accept for it wants more expression and less repression. The usefulness of Capricorn aligned with Taurus will  if given the respect of reason help make better decisions. Uranus will also be going retrograde tonight so some of the impulsive  behavior and thinking will subside.  Added to this Mercury is getting ready for it's retrograde phase on Saturday, and for some you may already be feeling it's effect.
Friday by lunch the Moon in Taurus  makes a sweet sextile to the Sun in Cancer.  Perhaps we have a nice lunch with someone we really enjoy, or go to a favorite place for lunch. Whatever your choice enjoy this joyous day and be mindful to keep you optimism in check. There is a tendency to expand our selves beyond what is healthy.
Saturday we find the Moon making it's way into Gemini where we get a lot of mental stimulation and sometimes we go off in directions with only half the facts.  While Gemini is co-ruler of Mercury with Virgo, it's sometimes premature in it's  delivery of informative due to Gemini's desire to be first. There are a lot of different stimulates that are effecting your thinking today, so making the right choices may be harder than usual.  Added  to the  mix, Neptune  is pressuring  the Moon by way of a square, which can actually  a good thing because Neptune usually adds confusing an a lack of clarity . We need all the help  we can get to find clarity in  what we hear, think and write.  Just after dinner  Mercury goes retrograde and will not go direct until August 4th.  This will be a time of rethinking, redoing. Communicators will be unclear, and details lost. This is a time when we complete what we have started earlier, not to start anything new, useless you wish to be frustrated and want to redo it all after Mercury has gone direct.  The process of waiting  three weeks will be shorter that the cleanup.
Then in the wee hours Sunday the Moon in Gemini dances with first Jupiter by way of conjunction, and and then a sextile to Uranus in Aries.  We may still be out from last night having some fun, with our friends, but there is a Sun Saturn square forming and it wants to take way our fun. Perhaps we had too much lively conversation, maybe some late night dancing and now we are dead tried.
Sunday the Moon in Gemini sextile to Mercury in Leo finds a way to justify it's behavior, defending it's position with a dose of self righteousness.  Added by Mercury's conjunction to Venus, Perhaps we have some pillow talk, or long conversations that allow use to focus only  the immediate  day at hand.

Saturn Direct ...time to move forward

June 25th Saturn turns direct, late in the day, and we can finally feel free of it's restrictive energy and start to move ahead with our plans in the next few weeks. While expansive Jupiter makes a square to inspirational Neptune.  This is an expansive and imaginary time which we get to enjoy fro a few weeks. We can stretch our imagination's muscles, by thinking outside the box. Use meditation, to inspire your creativity. But be mindful to come down too earth for reality checks now and again.

Tuesday the Moon enters peace loving Libra forming a sextile to Mercury in Leo while also making a trine to Jupiter in Gemini.We speak words of kindness and perhaps feel the ripple of those kind words as they expand to increase good feelings for all.

As Venus turns direct on June 27, we begin to feel more loving and are able to express it more openly. This transit  is the of end relationship scrutiny and the beginning of perhaps a new chapter.  As the Sun in Cancer enters into a T-square with Uranus, in Aries and Pluto in Capricorn, on June 29... This is an intense and revolutionary in the  forces that are at working pushing for change.  You may be forced to see the lack of value of some area of your life.  You'll  be forced to let go of out grown aspects and embrace the new. Be proactive don't wait until it feels like the fabric of your life is being ripped out of your hands. Power struggles arise as the winds of change need a voice.
Then as Moon enters Scorpio, where it gets support from it's ruling planet Pluto in Capricorn. Which strengthens our resolve to make changes. This is truly Phoenix rising from the ashes.
We need to keep our heads and use a measure of discerning intelligence. Which we are able to find via Mercury  as makes as sextile to Jupiter early Friday morning .
The last day of the month we find the Moon in Scoprio sextile Mars in Virgo which can guide our feelings to a productive use of our energies.  However it's short lived as the Moon moves into Sagittarius where visions, and dreams of far away places are found,and not well supported due to the influence of a square it makes to Neptune. Too much dreaming not enough doing.

Venus Retrograde

A lite touch and flexible thinking are the themes for the week as Venus turns retrograde on May 15th,  we review current and past relationships and affectionate ties.  You may  also be inclined to reevaluate your money situation and have the desire to make changes. Venus will be retrograde for about 6 weeks, so you will have time to make changes with care.  May 16th , Mars trines Pluto, this aspect may indicate that some of your  plans will finally bear fruit.   However,  with  Jupiter and Saturn  forming a quincunx aspect on May 16 ,  counting your chickens before they're hatched might not be a good idea. This aspect creates a lot of frustration,  the energies are not working in cooperation with each other so plans take a longer to be fulfilled. As Jupiter calls for expansion and Saturn calls for restriction.  Therefore, take a longer view of the situation.  Use your energy and time carefully, as to prevent  reworking of  your plans.

On May 20th the Sun enters Gemini and with a solar eclipse.  Meaning that the New Moon will pass between the Sun and the Earth, block the Sun.  The usual effect of eclipses are that of expansion , which occurs  the area of our chart that holds the eclipse. However, this eclipse is more about the removing of unnecessary,  the extra, which will help to remove the barriers which prohibits inner growth.  Continue to be focused on your processes, with the idea that  less is more now.  Find your root idea, simplify. Perhaps there are too many "good" ideas on the table...  Know that abundance is still the law,  allow for it to be present in your life.  

UP DATE

To my local followers, starting Wednesday May 23th , I will be giving readings by appointment 
@  Back to Body in the Liberty Mall on Route 209 South,  Brodheadsville. Please stop in or call for more information.
Hope to see some of you there.

Welcome

For those who are new to my blog welcome. For those faithful I welcome you back. I have been going through some Astrological changes myself. But I am glad to say I am back. And I will posting much more frequently. I have some news for my local friends I will be in a Holistic Expo May 5th . At the Brodheadsville Fire Dept. And The Allentown Holistic Expo May 19th and 20th. Hope to see some of you there.

For many of us the past few months may have seemed like we had our heads in a fog. So many of the inner planets were going retrograde which now are direct. So Time to move on.

However As I write today I am reminded that the Sun entered into the sign of Taurus early this morning, and the Moon will soon join him on the April 21st. So movement is slow and deliberate. But moment none the less is a good thing, perhaps a good way to start is to take stock of our senses and surroundings. Getting our bearings as to where we would like to be heading.

We might think about our relations with Mother Earth and see we we can be more proactive and give back. For that matter the relationship with our own Mothers. gratitude so a long way to receiving more of that which we desire. Do you love what you have, or do you have what we love?

Taurus begs the questions; What do our possessions mean to us? Are we possessed by them, never quenched by the sanctification of having what we we want? OR are happy with what we have, and appreciative it's source?

Ceres, an Asteriod which is associated with growth and harvest, and a feminine energy. Attributed to our Earth, her symbol is the sickle. She stands as a watcher at the party thrown by the Sun and Moon. She asks us to take the opportunity to look at what we are made of, and look at where we come from, in respect to our planet. We do you stand? Can you do more?

Questions , Comments welcome
Til then

July

We start the Month off with a Solar Eclipse in Cancer. This is the third eclipse in a row... what does that mean you ask? Eclipses are like a laser beams that are shinning an intensive light or shadow on an area of our charts which has an direct affect on our lives, giving us the opportunity to examine and adjust our behavior. We are being asked to focus our attention on the area of our chart that holds the sign of the eclipse... this one is in Cancer.

If you have a Cancer rising, Moon, or Born in the sign, this eclipse will hold more meaning for you. Most Cancerian people react to change by moving sideways away from the threat, or trying to avoid the change by hiding. But it's time for a change, embrace it!! For this eclipse is not the only aspect that is affecting you now, Pluto is in opposition, Saturn is square, as is Uranus all forming a grand cross. You may be feeling like many factors of your life are out of your control, but the old must die to the new. Like the Phoenix rising from the ashes, to be born again. But where ever Cancer is in your chart allow it to use it's talent of self reflection, aided by Pluto, to go deep, you might see that the changes are not so hard to allow. And because of these changes you gain a new sense of clarity that helps clear the deck for the new growth that is beginning called into existence. Of which your presently can not see.

And as Mercury moves into Leo, it should give you the ability to speak from the heart, as it joins the Moon on Sunday the 2nd. We will feel the effect of this Solar Eclipse for sometime as the planets move into Cancer like Venus, and later in the month oppose Pluto where we may get a glimpse of a side of loved one that we maybe never saw until now... Be prepared to change, for if you do the transit will be much easier. To resist will be futile for change is the only consistent...

June

Ever feel like to plug has been pulled out, and haven't the energy to do anything. Perhaps you are approaching the end of a Mars cycle... I know that prior to my Mars return I can't even write... and now that Mars is conjunct a new mars cycle begins for me I feel like myself. These cycles take about 2 1/2 years. We all have them and if you start something new at the beginning of one you a have a really good chance of completion of the project by the next one... Provided that you do the work to make it happen. I also get a little help from Jupiter so I'm back to writing.

We have a busy Summer this year. A solar eclipse on June 1 in Gemini, has the affect similar to Mercury retrograde, due to the Moon being in Gemini, which is slowed down by the blinding Sun in Gemini, making communications difficult and unclear. The question here is do we really know what we want? Where we are going? What is motivating you to act? What's blinding you from seeing your path clearly?

Take some time and mediate on that question... and as Mercury moves into Gemini on June 2 the answers may become clearer as to the path you need to walk. However, Mars in Taurus is slow moving and methodical in it's approach to new projects so have patience, make it fun. Then Jupiter joins the party in Taurus. Jupiter is lord of large and expanding when coupled with Taurus' energy, the love of beauty and possession things can get expensive fast, depending on your chart. So watch you money and be-careful for impulsive spending.

As Jupiter makes himself at home in Taurus which is for about one year, you can begin to see things expand which are not easily undone, so watch you eating patterns. Some other form of possessions may expand as well. Depending on where Taurus falls in your chart there will be different effects. Some of you may have their family expand, some their money, our homes.. You can be moved to buy expensive works of Art.....be careful. Expansion needs to be built on a solid foundation... being too fool hearty, can have to opposite effect, expanding someone's pocket while emptying yours...

The added influence of Mars in Taurus while a slow mover here, can fuel impatience and prompt some to throw the baby out with the bath water...which will seem reasonable around the Lunar eclipse in Sagittarius on June 15. But we are being to clarify our dreams. What are we hoping to get out of all this? Are our ideals clearly formed? We can have our dreams fulfilled or we must shake it off and wake up! Step outside of our confront zones and make some long need changes, ride ourselves of unneeded emotional baggage...

Very busy times. So Breath!!

This Spring is very active, and there is no simple way to prepare for what lays ahead for the human condition. Perhaps it suffices to say ," go with the flow" and be able to change direction in a moments notice.

While we say goodbye to the Sun in Aries on April 21th where it had enjoyed the company of many a planet. I need to mention that Mercury leader of the pack of players in Aries, is in a retrograde cycle, created much misinformation, unclear facts, which may have fueled Mars, in Aries his ruler to act hasty and desire to chase many a false starts. Mercury also influenced Jupiter, to become frustrated, due to his enthusiasm being primed for unlimited possibilities and no real outlet, because Mercury forgot to include the details for success. As Mercury goes direct on the 23th we can begin to sort out the facts and readjust. Only to see the changes that Uranus also introduced to the playing field, as he went a bit unnoticed for some at this party in Aries. Hold on you can do this... breath...regroup

Uranus's stay in Aries for some time, and he will stimulate many to make changes perhaps revisiting some Jupiter enthusiasm. The ideas which seemed incomplete during Mercury's retrograde that are viable may be revised, now that the Sun will be moving into Taurus. Here the Sun will have a more solid working base, but it will still take time, there are many voices in this chorus. As if that wasn't enough the Full Moon last night in Libra was conjunct Saturn, which stood in judgmental opposition to the players in Aries. So nerves may have been shaken but not shattered for some.

While one planet leaves Aries the Sun, another enters Venus the same day. This Astrologer is not surprised to see how many planet lined up to join Uranus this Spring. After all Uranus likes groups and social interaction. And in it's new home in Aries he wanted to party. And there truly is a party of planets that have come to join in the fun that will shake rattle and roll the human condition for some time. This combination of planets will inspire a mixture of ideas that will float by, some will come to nothing, but listen some will be packed with insight that just need to be tweaked.

So be flexible and listen for useful information. The areas of your life that feel tight and constricting are probably in need of some change, or redirection. Make your changes after Mercury goes direct on 4/23 if you hate to redos...

This Spring as Venus joins Mars at the party, there will be a lot of emphasis directed towards relationships and relating. Remember that Saturn in Libra will be at times in opposition to the these two lovers in Aries. Asking the question, "What do I need to learn from this?" As Pluto in Capricorn (Yes, he still has a place in Astrology, in fact more than ever before, his ruler being Scorpio, master of the underground likes to go unnoticed until he strikes) squares each planet in Aries while squaring planets in Libra, our strength of conviction, our ability to change, who and how we love, will all be put to a test so we can gain wisdom and grow.
Thankfully transits do pass...

So be kind to yourself, and remember that, what you focus on, you get, both positive and negative equally!!


So may your thoughts bring you joy....

Time for a change

As we prepare for this holiday season the winds of change are blowing. December opens with a new Moon in Sagittarius on the 5th of December setting the tone for high energy and forward thinking, aided by sparks of inspiration, perhaps due to the holidays approach or the coming hope for a new year. This new moon gets a little help in stabilization thanks to Saturn. Saturn helps us realize that real change though practical application is possible and can help us make change real.

We also feel the affect of Mercury conjunction to Pluto on the same day, aiding us to focus our thoughts and remove any false hopes that would prevent real growth. This combination can be very direct and straight forward, so be mindful of your delivery... words has the power of the sword. By December 10th, Mercury enters a retrograde phase creating communications challenges and delays are a possibility which can allow time to rethink what it really takes to manifest our dreams.

As the sun leaves Sagittarius and moves into Capricorn on December 21, there is also a a lunar eclipse at 29 Degrees in Gemini. We may find that all the preparations leaves us with little energy. Normally we would be more contemplative and slow down to recharge, however this time is different. While we may be tired, we are eager to press onward. This is due to the conjunction of Jupiter and Uranus in Pisces. Jupiter calls for expansion and Uranus calls for change, in Pisces, there are deep forces at work, pushing us to change our lives.

As the new year unfolds we have another new Moon, this time in Capricorn, on January 4th and it's a solar eclipse which gives it more strength. Capricorn rules Saturn the task master, which can frustrate our ambition and bruise our egos, making it seem impossible to move forward. However, Saturn is asking us to adjust our thinking, be practical and continue to look for answers. We need to reexamine our plans and look below the surface for real solutions that we may have over looked. And with Saturn's position in Libra it reminds us that we are not alone in our journey, part of the walk we take is with others. This may feel foreign to some but the possibility for real change is at hand...
It's time for change allow the winds of change to carry us towards our shared and focused dreams. Remember to breath....

Time for healing

It's been a busy summer for most of us myself included. But now it's time to get down to work... While some many planets were retrograding, many of us have visited some familiar grounds. Hopefully it has given us the opportunity to rethink, redo and mend some fences... As of the New Moon in Scoprio 11/5-6, it is time to dig down deep and heal... With some help from Chiron, the wounded healer, Neptune the planet of belief in healing both metaphorically and actually(at best),their conjunction to the new moon making now a wonderful time to think differently... believe in our dreams... We are also giving more help by another conjunction in late Scoprio. Vesta the feminine healer and Mercury planet of communications. Listen to your feminine healing self... you know what is best for you...
There are strong energies at play to help if we ask, beleive it is possible.

And that's not all we get more help from our friends Jupiter and Uranus who are in conjunction in Pisces asking the question "do you want to expand the seeming limitless possibilities?" This stellar placement is farther enhanced by it's trine to Mercury and Vesta mix.... What will you do? What do you beleive?
It's not a nudge but a push towards healing, personally and collectively.

This is a time of healing, finding the help or lending a hand... We are as the Greeks say, "In the Eleventh Hour" so lets get moving...

We have the opportunity to open up our minds to new ways of thinking. Heal the past. Are you willing?

The North Node in Capricorn shows the direction we as a people can achieve... Will we work together for the success of all? It forms a conjunction to Pluto who speaks of the work we need to do as individuals and collective people... So I ask the question... What will you do?
Dig down deep... mediate on the question... be truthful with yourself... It's time for healing...

Re-adjustment time

Have you had any insights yet? Where do you want to be? Re-adjustment time is upon us... It seems that many are sitting on the per-verbal fence when it comes to making decisions about which road to choose, and why not, with Saturn in Libra, opposite Jupiter in Aries, giving us so many choices it's hard to know which one is right. And to add to the confusion, the Sun is blinded by its opposition to Neptune, everything seems possible. If you're feeling stuck between a rock and a hard place, take heed, the limitations that seem to bind us, causing our indecision may need more time to find a voice ...we need to get more facts. Jupiter and Uranus have turned retrograde, and Mercury will soon, on August 20th, we need to re-examine our thoughts.

This morning as I write .. I am reminded that life is a creative process always in the stages of becoming, so write your play with the joy...create a delicious future. Over the next couple of days we will have many a false starts... much joy may be experienced...but take heed all that glitters isn't gold...

Finding out what's truly right for our soul's growth is a process...what truly brings us the most joy changes as we change... moving towards that goal is our souls evolution ... enjoy the ride!!

It seems that a lot has been happening for many this summer, including for me. Hope the fall gives me more time to update this blog.

It's a busy time

To any of you following this blog, sorry for the long absence. A lot has been going on, the stars effect all of us, including me. Thank you for your patience.
Also thank you to those who voted on the format of this blog.
I have been thinking of a way to give you more information but, space here is limited so please have patience with my process. Remember that you can send me e-mails for personal questions.

I have been getting a lot of questions as to what has been going on, for inquiring minds, here goes.

Since the last time I wrote, Aries has seen a lot of action, Uranus planet of unexpected change has come to visit, followed by Jupiter, planet of expansion. When these two planets join in Aries anything can and does happen. And while Mars was still in Leo many were kept on there toes (I including me)ideas coming and going just a quickly. Notice a lot of accidents? Will this can be attributed to this combo. The action is slowing down a bit, as Mars moved into Virgo, making those aware to use their energy a bit more wisely. Saturn planet of restriction has also moved into Libra in opposition to the combo in Aries. So this week may seem like plans that were set in motion have hit a brick wall. Take heart, Jupiter and Uranus have gone retrograde in motion(slowing down the consistent stream on new information) and it's time to rethink some of the crazy or not so crazy plans we set in motion when these two planets entered Aries in late May.

Adjustment and adjust are key words for this period of time, which will last to early next year, as these two planets slide back into Pisces for a spiritual or delusional readjustment. And then there is Pluto, who wants the facts, and to get to the bottom of things in Capricorn forming a T-square to a the opposition as if we don't have enough pressure. But the reality is Pluto in this formation and sign can give the much need stability to help us make good decisions about what choices ahead.

Remember Aries rushs in with too much enthusiasm perhaps not thinking it though and with the added stimulus from Jupiter and Uranus it can fell like the flood gates are wide open. Libra has a hard time making a decisions, and with Saturn coming to call there will be a lot of caution added which will make it even harder to know what course of action to take. But this opposition gets help (should you chose to see it as such) from Capricorn, ruler of Saturn, disciplined and shrewd, due to Pluto's ability to ferret out the facts. Pluto in Capricorn will help mold the kind of choices that will have the ability, should you choose it, to build solid formations that have the ability to last.

It is a interesting time to have choices, be patience with yourself and remember you are in the process of becoming all the time...

This week is busy.... so hold on !

Sunday started out with the Moon making five aspects, which made for a very active day. Keeping us all on our toes with lots of communication and social activity. Uranus one of the culprits squared the Moon early yesterday morning, changing our plans and minds a least more than once, even mine. Chaos and confusion may have been the order of the day until in the evening when the moon entered Cancer and it settled down for a short while, only to be met by an opposition to Pluto. For some it felted like they were in the hot seat where they were a bit undermined or misunderstood. The day was calling for an honest examination of our emotions and motivation. Were you? Hopefully the late Moon/Mercury aspect made it easier to see the other side of the conservation.

Monday: Watch you overindulgent side today as Venus and Jupiter square and Sun/ Jupiter make a sextile. Jupiter the planet of expansion asking us "what do we really want?" The sky's the limit where everything and anything seems possible. We have high hopes. And find new opportunities to express our desires for pleasure everywhere. But later tonight the dance Mars between Pluto can be a rude eye opening experience and can feel like a slap in the face. So balance your desires in what you do know about the relationships, and your ability to deliver what you promise.

Tuesday: The day starts out with Venus forming an uncomfortable aspect to Saturn, continuing from last night's revelation. Feeling like the wind has been taken out our sails, we are more pensive about the outcome. But it is Saturn's job, the task master to call us on being responsible for our choices. Are you? By the afternoon the Moon enters Leo giving us the courage to stand by our decisions and helps Venus trine Neptune soften the hard edges of Saturn's raise sharp claws, bringing a sense of balance to calm our nerves.

Wednesday: Hold on to your hat the aspects are running a muck. Starting off, the Sun, our sense of self, forming a square to Neptune our unconscious self. There is much confusion over what is really being expressed. Hopefully, the trine Mercury and Pluto form will help to make things clearer. And while all this is going Venus and Uranus make a square to set us further of balance in regard to relationships. Our desire to experiment with new ideas in relationships won't last long though, as Venus makes her way into Cancer early this evening. The desire for the familiar, tried and tested is what she prefers. Will she win out?

Thursday: No matter how hard Venus in Cancer tries to hold on to the same old same old in relationships, the pull from the Sun and Uranus wants things to change and will shake things up. As the day progresses the challenging Moon in Leo forms a square to the reluctant Sun in Taurus. " Move it, move it!" says the Sun. Depending on where these planets fall in your chart you will feel the desire to take some form of action. We get a momentary break around diner as the moon slips into Virgo only a few hours prior to the Sun floating it's way into chatty Gemini...

Friday: TFIG... at least this week... we need a rest, there are no real aspect to speak of but the Sun Virgo and the Moon Gemini forming a square which will have some of your stomach wrenched... take some down time... read a book, chat with friends, go to a movie listen. Tomorrow promises to be full speed ahead again...

Saturday: The Moon forms a number of aspects today, starting off the afternoon with an opposition to Jupiter, followed 5 minutes later by a conjunction to Saturn, and three hours later an opposition to Uranus. We may feel like we are on an emotional roller coaster. Remember the only constant is change, so stay fluid. The Moon will be changing signs tonight going into peace loving Libra offering some suave for our wounds. But don't be fooled the larger issues are still there, even if everyone is playing nice for now.
Jupiter and Saturn make one of the it's first oppositions late tonight which will repeat again August 16th 2010 and March 28 2011. Where we find the focus of our thought revolving around educational expansion (Jupiter), career ambition ,(Saturn).
We need both in these changing economic times, where's the balance and what's the cost... that will be the question


As always... enjoy the journey

Happy Thursday New Moon Tonight!!

As today starts out we may feel a bit more hopeful, however the Moon in Taurus is met by a challenging aspect, a square to Mars in Leo. So our emotional take on things may have a harder time materializing. Mars is expressing a need for action, and action NOW. And moon while exalted in Taurus, doesn't like to move that fast. But by the evening, we experience the effects of the new moon, a desire for results, which helps to move even stubborn Taurus in a solid direction towards the goals we have been planning.
Moon is also forming a square to Neptune, so be realistic about you expectations when it comes to your resources. Be careful with things, like money, time or energy. Any inspiration now should be grounded in reality, while being fueled with creativity.

Friday: The Moon enters Gemini early in the morning, so communications are lively but a bit inconsistent. Many an interesting a conversation can be had, opening minds to new ideas.

Saturday: We can expect a lively afternoon as the Moon in Gemini makes a (sextile), good aspect to Mars in Leo. Many a conversation can actually turn into productive courses of action. New Ideas can hold the seeds to future motivation.

Well see you Sunday...til then enjoy the ride

Happy Mother's Day !!!!

Well, Mercury strikes once more! I had a hard time accessing my blog...but with a little help from the Sun in determined Taurus, I didn't give up.

The Moon is very active today, first meeting was with Jupiter early this morning, perhaps some of you woke up with a lot of optimism, but shortly afterward felt the strong hand of Saturn smack you back into reality. By lunch time or shortly after, Uranus, planet of unexpected and sudden changes, made some of you feel the need to find an outlet to express your excitement. What started out like an unproductive day, actually turned out to be very busy one. (hence my late post)
Around 3:00 PM the Moon changes signs moving into high energy Aries...
Feelings are less inhibited, and emotions flow easily. All this energy can make even a calm Taurus, need an outlet. Feelings however, are over shadowed by the fear of how well one will be received, which may stop some cold.

Monday: the Moon in Aries makes a stressful angle to Pluto... ruler of the underworld and the destroyer...this meeting can create conflict of wills. Don't be so quick to end everything. Instead let the Sun help shed some light on the conflicts that seem unresolvable. Help also comes from of Mars, just prior to lunchtime. The warrior planet helps out by giving some the courage to act and a sense of timing. As the day winds down conflicts find some clarity, balance becomes possible...

Tuesday: Woowho!!! Mercury returns direct... (Ok, I cannot blame Mercury for my typos...lol) Communications gets a bit clearer, conversations are a bit less confusing. I say a bit because it will take a few days to really find clarity.
By the evening the Moon and Neptune have a soft aspect to one another which helps us to be kinder towards others and maybe even ourselves. The Moon moves into Taurus just before midnight, creator comforts and pleasure come to mind. Minds are open to possibilities, where new opportunities are welcome.

Wednesday: A calmer day,communications are clearer due to a nice mix of Moon conjunct Mercury and trine Pluto. We find the tools necessary to help us understand to complex issues that have eluded us during the past few weeks....

Stay turned...be back on Thursday...

A new beginning

As I begin this new chapter of my career, I would like to thank Lisa Koza, of "Lisa Koza Productions" for her support, patience and help in getting this blog started. I also want to thank Katerina De Amore of "Women awakened" for her kind words about my Astrological insight into her chart. Both links will be added here once I figure it out...lol so have patience.

My purpose for forming this sight is to give anyone interested in Astrology or knowing more about themselves, their loved ones, their career, their life a way to get some answers.

I have studied and practiced Astrology for over 30 years which has given me a wealth of knowledge and experience to offer anyone seeking guidance.

It is my belief that this is classroom Earth and our natal chart is the curriculum that we are required to be take in order to manifest our maximum potential in this life's journey. Astrology provides us with the insight to chose among the classes or paths which can helps to guide that journey. All seekers of knowledge must be mindful that we do have a given number of choices on our journey and that it is those choices that Astrology helps to clarify.

As I write this blog it is apparent to me that Mercury's retrograde, as my followers will come to understand is making it difficult to choose the right words from among the endless words in our language that can best describe what this blog is all about.

So with that said, Mercury will be going direct on Tuesday, meaning communications will be improving ever so slowly, but steadily, due to it residing in Taurus. If you have noticed that over the past 2 and 1/2 weeks (longer if you are born with Mercury retrograde) communications, written or spoken have been anything but clear. That will improve over the next few weeks.

Today, as the Moon in Pisces is forming a square to Venus in Gemini so beware of over reacting or being to thin skinned. Things spoken or unspoken don't have to be taken personally. Instead take some comfort in the knowledge that the Sun in Taurus, is sextile the Moon in Pisces, and give yourself and others a break.

For those wishing to contact me for now see me an email barb_wenn@yahoo.com

Thanks

Enjoy your journey....
