Welcome to 2010 – A Cardinal Year
When Saturn moved into the cardinal sign of Libra last fall, joining Pluto in cardinal Capricorn, it signaled the beginning of the shift to cardinal dominance of the outer planets. By mid-year 2010, both Jupiter and Uranus will spend some time in the most cardinal sign of all, Aries, before moving back into Pisces one more »
Saturday Extra! Oh, What a Time for Mercury Retrograde
The day after Christmas is the biggest gift return day of the year. With stationed retrograde, I don’t even want to think about the lines at customer service. Not even the promise of after-Christmas sales could lure me anywhere near a shopping mall today — especially not with Mercury stationed retrograde. The lines will be more »
Saturday Extra! Going Retro with Mars in Leo
I’ve been invited to a birthday party this evening with an 80s theme. How ironic to have a party with a retro theme, the night before Mars turns retrograde in Leo, the party sign that loves flash and glitter. What’s more, Mars is opposite Jupiter, lord of everything big and over-the-top. That pretty much sums more »
Saturday Extra! Holiday Planning with Mercury Retrograde
As most of you know, another Mercury retrograde period will be upon us soon, just in time to mess with the best-laid holiday plans. With Mars also about to go into reverse, the typical delays and frustrations that vex us while Mercury is retrograde could cause temper tantrums and emotional meltdowns everywhere. The holidays are more »
Saturday Extra! So Are We In Scorpio, Or What?
Scorpio is the sign of mysteries, secrets, and hidden things, so it’s no surprise that among its hidden attributes is an entire “lost sign” of the zodiac. I wrote about this last year in the second half of Scorpio, so many of you already are aware that there’s a thirteenth constellation of the zodiac, Ophiuchus, more »
Saturday Extra! Back in Business
I’d like to take this opportunity to announce that I have started taking new clients again. As some of you know, I suffered a serious back injury in late January. It has been a traumatic ordeal, including a re-injury at the end of July. Throughout this time, I was unable to sit for very long in front more »
Saturday Extra: Libra and Leo – No Problems, Right?
For a change of pace I decided to do a short post on synastry in response to a reader’s question. She is Libra Sun and her boyfriend is a Leo – very fitting, with Venus having just returned to her home sign and Mars arriving in Leo yesterday. Ms. Libra asks why her Leo boyfriend more »
Saturday Archives: Pluto Transit Through The Twelfth House
Donna Cunningham has written several posts recently on the twelfth house and reading those reminded me of this post from the archives. Since most of my personal planets are found in the twelfth house, when planets transit through that neighborhood I know it! There seems to be a lot of interest in what happens as more »
Saturday Archives: Another Perspective on Ceres – Natural Cycles
In honor of the potent New Moon in Virgo, I dug out this article on Ceres, mother of Persephone and mother-in-law of Pluto. Ceres is traditionally associated with hard work, mothering of older children, nurturing, food – especially fruits and vegetables, farming/gardening and other earthy matters. However, a recent article in The Mountain Astrologer by more »
Saturday Extra! I Blame It on Mercury Retrograde
Surely I’m not the only astrologer who read about yesterday’s 9/11 Coast Guard snafu and automatically thought, “Mercury retrograde!” But this is not just any Mercury retrograde. Pluto was stationed and just hours from returning direct. Saturn and Uranus are close to exact opposition. Mars is about to cross the degree of an eclipse in more »
