Pallas and gender issues: The astrology of Stephen Beatty

Actor Warren Beatty recently addressed his transgender son Stephen for the first time, putting Stephen in the headlines and bringing him to my attention.  For some time now I’ve been writing that the emergence of transgendered persons such as Chaz Bono into a more mainstream presence is connected with the transition into the Aquarian age.

How Long Does A Transit Last?

Hi, Elsa. How long does a transit effect a person? Is it a matter of degrees; like if the transit is within 5 or 10 degrees of exact, or is it a matter of what else is going on in … Read More…

Today’s influences hit all the right notes –  enthusiasm, harmony and acceptance, with a touch of magic. If you have something to launch, submit or attempt, today’s overall ease and opportunity can help. 

Mercury in Libra conjoins Jupiter, at 6 degrees. Jupiter expands Mercury’s wit and verbal grace, and Mercury puts Jupiter’s beliefs into words. Discussions will be open and hopeful. Excellent for introductions or any social function where it’s essential to be polite and positive. This aspect gives all one-on-one communication an optimistic spin, so if you’re trying to make amends or find something to talk about, Mercury/Jupiter can inject fresh perspective and ideas. 

Continuing the open-minded trend, the Libra Sun trines Pallas Rx, at 18 degrees Aquarius. Odd patterns are given a social outlet. Something that’s too revolutionary for polite company has a better chance of being accepted. And, the Moon conjoins Pallas Rx, making this part of a Waxing trine between the Sun and Moon. This part of the lunar cycle makes integration easier. Events ease forward and understanding grows. Libra and Aquarius blend group dynamics with one-on-one connections. 

Venus at 21 degrees Scorpio conjoins Juno and trines Chiron Rx in Pisces. Love and profound commitment merge, while Chiron adds a shot of empathy. Unconditional expressions of fidelity come from the acceptance of each other’s wounds. Pain is shared and makes the relationship stronger.  

Mars in Capricorn makes a sextile to Neptune Rx in Pisces, at 9 degrees. This is an aspect of gentle manifestation, as Mars’ determined actions ground Neptune’s dreams. A vision can be solidified, as you work to integrate magic into the real world.

Astrology of Now: Six degrees of Jupiter in Libra

Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon: a game based on the idea that any player in Hollywood can be linked, through the films they have worked on, to character actor Kevin Bacon within six steps. So say, Kevin Bacon has a value of 0 — he being the centre of the Hollywood universe — then try linking Michael Caine. He has a Bacon number of 2: Caine was in Now You See Me with Woody Harrelson, and Harrelson was in She’s Having a Baby with Bacon. The truth is that you could pick almost any living actor in Tinsel Town and he […]
