The Moon squares Pluto by 11:30 AM PST. This may make the start of the Aries energy feel especially rough; we were gliding along, attending to our own business, getting things done (buoyed by the sextile to Venus, 9AM PST), … Continue reading …

The Essence for 5 March 2011: Objects Are Larger Than They Appear
Around 4 AM PST the Moon conjuncts Mercury, which will make both sextile Sedna. Will we get the message, or will it be obscured by Sedna’s ability to hide what’s right in front of us? I don’t know that there’s … Continue reading →
The Essence for the Pisces New Moon, 4 March 2011: Adjustment
The Pisces New Moon occurs on the 4th at 12:45 PM PST at 13 Pisces 55. Saturn in Libra quincunxes the Moon/ Sun combo, as does h.Zeus in Libra–and those are the only aspects. This suggests that the New Moon … Continue reading →
The Essence for 3 March 2011: What We Want, What We Do
The Sun will be quincunx my pet theoretical provocateur, h.Zeus, and that suggests that our ambitions and desires will be eating at us, requiring our accommodation, even as we may ignore, misinterpret, or deny our needs–for ambitions are a form ̷…
The Essence for 2 March 2011: Don’t Muffle, Don’t Ignore
Just before 5 AM PST the Aquarius Moon trines retrograde Saturn (and remember, Lunar aspect effects can stretch a couple of hours either side of exact–I name the time close to exact). I usually don’t make much of retrograde or … Continue read…
The Essence for 1 March 2011: Live Wires
The Aquarian Moon translates the energies from Mars to Pluto and vice versa around the 9 o’clock hour AM Pacific–and this may make for some temper and emotionalism that almost seems unexplainable–think of it as two live wires (Mars and … Co…
The Essence for 28 February-1 March 2011: Mother May I?
Ceres sits at the midpoint of the current Jupiter-Pluto square, feeding the pressure of the social and expansive in conflict with the dark, the secret, the mysterious, and the forces of change into issues of authority and the maternal or … Contin…
The Essence of the Weekend: 26 & 27 February 2011: Ringing True as Bells
The Sag Moon makes only two more noteworthy aspects before it leaves the sign: a square to Juno just after midnight Pacific time, then a square to Uranus at 29 degrees, by 9:30 AM PST of the 26th. This period … Continue reading →
The Essence for 25 February 2011: The Superhero Approach
I’m going to skip the Lunar picture for today (it’s just not terribly compelling) in favor of a few bits about the recent Mars/ Chiron meet-up. It brought forward a lot of passive-aggressive interaction, attempts to wound dressed up in R…
The Essence for 24 February 2011: The Devil’s In the Details
The Moon squares Neptune, 1:30 AM PST, and we are faced with the usual bogey-men: delusion, deception, disappointment (for those times we get a glimpse through the Neptunian fog!) and negative or unrealistic fantasy (as opposed to fantasies that could …
