Weekly Forecast May 21: Mercury Enters Gemini
Whew, I definitely felt that eclipse. What about you? It was overcast and foggy here, so I didn’t get to see anything, but around 3:30, I essentially passed out and was in a deep sleep for two hours. It was a good thing I got some extra rest, because this week promises to be insanely more »

Weekly Forecast May 7:
Mercury in Taurus, Sun Conjunct Jupiter
As of this week, we’ve entered a tense, highly charged period that includes two eclipses, Venus retrograde, a rare transit of Venus across the Sun, and the first exact square of Uranus and Pluto.

Pluto Retrograde, Mars Direct
I wrote this post yesterday. Then, early this morning, my website went offline due to an accounting error by my hosting service. How’s that for astrological correlation?

Full Moon in Libra, April 6
People have been so grumpy in the past couple of days. I attribute it to the effects of waking up out of a Mercury-in-Pisces slumber – like bears coming out of hibernation. Friday’s Full Moon isn’t helping. Research has shown that the Full Moon affects our behavior, and usually not kindly. We might expect the more »
Weekly Forecast April 1:
Venus Enters Gemini, Mercury Direct
I was going to write this week’s forecast as an April Fool’s spoof, but every joke I could come up with had too much truth in it. Life is stranger than fiction. As I’m so fond of saying, God is a comedian. In astrology, the trickster is Mercury, who speaks so eloquently that he can more »
