How to succeed during Mercury retrograde, April 9 through May 3 2017

Sometimes it seems like we are in a permanent Mercury retrograde period, doesn’t it?  Under Mercury retrograde communication snafus are common and often equipment that we rely on fails to work properly. I like to think of Mercury retrograde periods as being the ebb tide.  Life doesn’t always move in forward motion – like the […]

April Horoscopes

It’s a very complicated picture this month, but things do slow down a lot — and about time too. It’s important to note that from April 9 to 24, Venus will be between just two degrees of Pisces, 26° and 28°. This intense focus from the goddess of love and luck is unusual and will touch you directly if you have any planets around these degrees in water signs, Cancer, Pisces and Scorpio, earth signs, Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn — or Sagittarius and Gemini. It seems as she will be especially supportive during an otherwise potentially fraught week as the […]

Astrology of Now: Calculated Action

The Queen, you may be aware, has had a cold. For the entire period of this Mercury Retrograde, her Majesty kept out of the public eye. She didn’t even make it to the Christmas church services — and that was for the first time in — well, forever. Yesterday, when Mercury went direct, she emerged, looking fully herself. Of course, the Mercury Rx took place in the Queen’s 12th House of purdah. Maybe it was the same for you, if you have Capricorn or Aquarius Rising. Anyway, it’s now time to step out of the shadows and get active. Take the […]

Winter Solstice, Mercury retrograde, and Pluto Pluto Pluto

Dear friends, I have neglected you terribly and there is so much to catch up on. First of all – Mercury has turned retrograde (December 19th through January 8th) so all of the usual warnings apply.  Of course I have been wildly disregarding my own advice and doing lots of online shopping to catch the […]

Astrology of Now: A Very Important Retrograde — Take It Personally

Mercury turns Rx on December 19 at 15° Capricorn. Meets the Sun on December 28 at 7° Capricorn. Turns direct on January 8 at 28° Sagittarius. Returns to 15° Capricorn on January 27. Squares Uranus on February 1. Leaves Capricorn on February 7. Please take a look at the previous post on this Mercury Retrograde, considering the idea of climbing the mountain — and meeting the Lord of the Mountain. Then ask yourself these questions. What effect — if any — has Pluto’s transit through Capricorn had on me so far?  Pluto entered Capricorn in January 2008. Pluto is a transforming […]
