February 2017 ‘Wild Card’ Eclipses with Murky Karmic Conditions
In February 2017, the first eclipse of the year is a Lunar Eclipse on February 10, 2017 @22Leo followed by the February 26, 2017 Solar Eclipse @8Pisces in the 19 South Saros Series. Here are both charts set for Washington DC; please enlarge to read notes for not all chart factors will be discussed in the following text:

With Director James Comey and the FBI under something of a congressional microscope these days it seems the still-current September 1, 2016 Solar Eclipse @9Vir21 has been very active within the Collective in more ways than one. Its ‘truth tackling’ theme is operative though the American people may wonder if such a noble quest is in need of cleansing since transiting Neptune @10Pisces (planet of
Below is the Spring Equinox 2017 horoscope set for Washington DC (in its role as representative for all of America). As you see, the February 26, 2017 Solar Eclipse @8Pis12 is rising and you’ll find a link to my notes concerning this eclipse and the August 21, 2017 eclipse (‘The Great American Eclipse’) at the end of this post:
March 20, 2017 Washington DC: Ascendant @10Pis37; Neptune,
In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law by President Obama while transit Neptune sat upon America’s natal Moon in Aquarius, aka, We the People, and the Great Conjunction/s of the inflationary/speculator/wastrel pair, Jupiter and Neptune, had sprinkled dreamy fairy dust over our Moon and hearts all through 2009, Mr. Obama’s first year in office. Little sense of reality prevailed
I thought I’d share some down-home astrology with you today. The Sun is squaring that gassy giant Neptune for a couple of days (November 30-December 1) — and I find myself semi-housebound with an eye infection. Neptune is pretty much on my natal Sun right now, which is also my chart ruler. The significance of the eye is that the Sun is one of the two “Lights” (the other being the Moon), traditionally associated with the left and right eyes. The Sun is, of course, the dexter eye, and this is where my stye is. Neptune is associated with poison and […]

As some readers of this blog may have noticed, I couldn’t bring myself to take a close look at the close of polls chart for the US election. It was just too important — and I was scared of what I might find. However, a couple of weeks ago, when I was writing your horoscopes for November, I saw something that made my heart leap into my mouth — in a manner of speaking — something which I could not ignore. It was the passage of Neptune through the South Node in Pisces this month. The image that sprang to into my mind […]

Good news! Susan Herskowitz, The Uranian Astrologer, has sent me a heads-up on her latest presentation which concerns the Collective Shift of Consciousness we’re all feeling as Neptune sails through her own sign of murky Pisces. As one example, you may recall events of 2009, the first year of Barack Obama’s presidency, when transit Neptune melted all over US natal Moon in Aquarius, transit
Neptune rules fashion and glamour and it’s been interesting to watch what’s happened since he roared into Pisces in 2011. Men rediscovered their inner dandies; women went kind of dishevelled and started dying their hair crazy colours. Neptune in Pisces 2011 -2025 Hair has gone all the shades of the ocean from cerulean to lilac to icey teal to rainbow to grey. Indeed, women have been sporting the kind of hair a mermaid might comb. This is street fashion but it’s also been taken up by the popperati. Beyoncé, of course, has outdone everyone by actually naming her child (born in 2012) Blue Ivy. […]

“There are only two or three human stories, and they go on repeating themselves as fiercely as if they had never happened before.” Willa Cather I can add “failure to hire leather-trousered pirate as childminder” to my Mother’s List of Shame. My kids are a tad irritated that Captain Hook is not their babysitter; instead he’s doing the job for some kid in Maine. Actually, I sympathise: Captain Hook (Colin O’Donoghue, Aquarius Sun) is deliciously watchable — simultaneously melancholy and dashing, kind and cruel — in ABC’s Once Upon A Time, which we are currently binge-watching. I’d quite like him to come […]
