Moon quincunx Mars is passionate about protecting its family and those it loves, but they don’t like to be too obvious about it. They think that revealing how much they care weakens them some how. Everything is about strategy for them, their instincts are extra sensitive and they react super-fast to any outside threat. They often conceal their motives and feelings with a veil of irony. Moon quincunx Mars has a great sense of timing (comic or otherwise), they know how to generate suspense, deliver a line and then the precise moment to hit with the punch line.This can be a very physical aspect, most useful in competitive sports like tennis or fencing when one has to anticipate the moves of ones opponent. The quincunx is about adjustment and fine-tuning, the Moon has great intuition and Mars reacts very fast. These people would be excellent in an emergency situation, for example a nurse out on the battle field, who needs to remain calm while sensing quickly who to treat first. Of course the passion of Mars with the Moon here also makes these people surprisingly sensitive lovers who are tender and affectionate in their love-making despite their cool image. Moon […]

Moon Quincunx Saturn
Moon quincunx Saturn is the quintessential eccentric headmistress or master. They command respect because they carry a rock solid air of authority and their stoic approach to life. What the quincunx adds to this aspect is a sense of humour and an unusual approach to problem solving. Moon quincunx Saturn seems like they would take the traditional approach to caretaking or managing, but they have the knack of throwing a curve ball into situations which throw people sideways. Those people quickly adjust themselves when they are given a beaming smile and a “you will obey” stare. Moon quincunx Saturn has great technical ability, they are natural scientists and methodical in every thing they do. This is an unexpectedly creative combination because Saturn crystallizes the Moon’s imagination through the adjusting and juxtaposing energy of the quincunx. It had a very sculptural feel about it, intuition forms matter. Moon quincunx Saturn Celebrities Erin Brockovich (07’) former shop assistant and beauty pageant winner turned legal clerk. Despite lacking a law school education she was instrumental in bringing litigation against Pacific Gas and Electric for contaminating water supplies. The 2000 film “Erin Brochovich” starring Julia Roberts, tells her rags to riches rise to activist […]

Fixed Star Unukalhai
The brightest star in constellation Serpens the Snake is Unukalhai, located at 22º Scorpio. Sometimes it is called Cor Serpentis, meaning the Serpent’s Heart. It’s a 2nd magnitude, pale yellow star found in the snakes neck. According to Ptolemy, the stars of constellation Serpens are of a Saturn Mars nature, which of course in traditional terms means an arch-villain. Robson suggests that they give “wisdom, craft, deceit, malice, a feeble will and danger of poison.”[2] The main problem is the risk of poisoning, or intoxication through drugs or alcohol. It doesn’t necessarily mean the subject will be a drug addict, rather that these people are unusually sensitive to toxins and suffer more than most when exposed to smoke, heavy metals, chemicals and alcohol. Some people do crave the very thing that they are allergic to however giving us a fatal attraction. This star seems to have an extremely hypnotic effect then, drawing you in with its undulating vibration. Robson has an extremely negative view of it. He associates it primarily with violence and poisoning with a crafty, criminal and immoral subtext. 1930’s gentleman Vivian Robson (Yes, he was a man) used the term “evil environment” to politely imply a gay […]

The Full Moon on 29 September 2012 by Darkstar Astrology. This full moon is at 7º Aries in the Constellation Lizard. This momentous moon is activating the revolution
Moon Opposite Saturn
Moon Opposite Saturn is serious about getting ahead and the mother may have instilled this driving ambition in the child at a very young age. The mother will have had very high standards (and maybe been a tad too critical) so that the child is continually striving to better itself. Those who don’t know the subject well may accuse them of being stuck-up or a snob, though usually Moon opposite Saturn doesn’t actually take them self that seriously. They do have a need to be respected and admired however. The Moon rules habits while Saturn is structure and organisation, therefore these subjects have great endurance and self-discipline. Moon opposite Saturn’s tastes are classic and they have great elegance and poise. Family is very important to them and they will work their hardest while sacrificing selfish desires. Responsibilities and duty are taken earnestly, but they may also care a little too much about their status. Any young dissenters are given an abrupt clip around the ear if their antics should degrade the family’s reputation. But Moon opposite Saturn will defend their home and family vehemently. All this strict behaviour does not mean that Moon opposite Saturn is a square and a […]

August 17 New Moon – Rude Muse
The New Moon on 17 August 2012 is at 25º Leo and on the star Alfard the watersnake. This is an ardent, creative and inspiring new start after the horrendous “Barking Mad New Moon” of July. The closest aspect is a saucy sextile to a bondaged up Mars conjunct Saturn, but there is also a square to Black Moon Lilith now on the Lilith star Algol no less. A wanton moon, very intense, and maybe a tad repressed, so he is stalking. (Venus opposite Pluto in the horoscope.) Both Mercury and Venus are activating the sexual revolution through the Uranus square Pluto, maybe this Moon can provide a lasting solution between warring couples. The New moon is also conjunct Asteroid Calliope the muse of epic poetry, after all the squabbles, at least we have something concrete to show for it. The Mars/Saturn angst and Lilith rage could inspire great music or art that is cathartic for those who have a teasing lover infuriatingly blowing hot and cold. New Moon Aspects Moon sextile Mars “is as you would expect an extremely passionate aspect, but it really does need to express this energy physically or sexually otherwise anger-management can become a big […]
Moon Sextile Pluto
Moon sextile Pluto seems to have many more sinister undertones than one would expect from a soft aspect, but this is still a Hades moon. Moon/Pluto aspects are never going to be easy because the sensitive moon combined with the sometime hellish transformation of outer planet Pluto is going to be hard for an individual to carry on a personal level. What the sextile can do however, is at least channel this intense, penetrating and occasionally ruthless energy into something creative. The artistic products are not going to be light hearted or bubble-gum, they will have the tinge of the underworld to them, be powerful or even political. The work could be profound and involve deep exploration of ones shadow and any taboo sexual proclivities. Where the creative outlet is blocked we can get into trouble. In this case, the subject needs to raise to a higher vibration through much soul searching to find Pluto’s buried gold. The list of celebrities include a disturbing amount of serial killers and sex criminals, but also occultists. Some are a bit of both Ie; Crowley. One thing that Pluto inspires above all is awe and power, the sizzling sextile and the mysterious nocturnal […]
