Big Aspects To Watch Out For: Jupiter in Virgo Two

Jupiter in Virgo — August 11, 2015 – 9 September 2016 The 12-year cycle of Jupiter is one of the most important to understand and work with in your own life. So right now, it’s worth looking back at the last time Jupiter was in Virgo –  from 27 August 2003 to 25 September 2004 – and racking your brain to remember what happened during that period. But that will only give you part of the story. You are 12 years older for a start, and your life will be in an entirely different phase. Not only that, Jupiter makes […]

Redesign to Reinvent, Leo Sun Mercury, Venus Uranus Retrograde

Sun and Mercury enter Leo. We could experience a bit of an ego boost in areas where we’ve managed to remain considerate, understanding or possibly cautious. Sun (ego, identity) will exit domestic Cancer on Wednesday July 22, to enter into the passionate realm of Leo. On Thursday July 23, Mercury (thoughts, communications) will exit Cancer, […]

Cautious Communications, Mercury enters Cancer

Tension is kickstarted on Monday, July 6 as our ability to care with the Sun in Cancer will require some inner adjustment with Pluto retrograde in Capricorn. We may be overly-obsessed with the control of personal needs and gains, which can lead some to make unpleasant demands. To work through this, we can utilize last […]

Aware of the Wreckage, Mercury Direct, Neptune, Saturn Retrograde

After three weeks of misinterpretations and misunderstandings under Mercury retrograde (which could’ve been blown out of proportion with the Sagittarius Full Moon) – communications, trades, dealings and short journeys will finally begin to start moving forward as Mercury stations direct on Thursday June 11. While it will still take a little while […]

Out Of Bounds

My colleague Jessica Shephard wrote a short piece about Venus Out Of Bounds a few weeks ago which set me thinking. Out of bounds planets are not something that’s not much discussed by astrologers. We’re all too busy getting our minds around cute new asteroids, imaginary dark points and multiple techniques for progressing a chart, not to mention what house system to use. (I plead guilty, m’lud) However, the idea of “out of bounds” is so simple, so obviously important — and so easy to look up — that I am amazed we don’t check this as a matter of […]

So anyways, I’m one of those people who doesn’t sleep on planes…at all. I never have.. As a result, I’m writing this after being awake for approximately 40 hours, so any spelling mistakes are the result of tiredness and not Mercury retrograde….Which…

Mercury Rx: Indexing

I am re-indexing this website during this Mercury Retrograde. Apparently it wasn’t done properly when we switched over from Blogger last year, so not all the posts are searchable (or should that really be findable). It seems like appropriate action to take when the god of communications is going backwards in the sign of wordsmithery. At the same time, I’m re-reading a lot of old posts and sending some of the choice ones out to subscribers. If you want to catch these, you can subscribe by email in the box on the right. It’s free and when I start doing […]
