Astrologers are very good at tossing around big, high-concept words like ‘spiritual,’ ‘soul journey,’ ‘shamanistic.’ We talk about ‘transformation’ and the ‘evolution of consciousness.’ We say times of great crisis are ‘opportunities for change’ and the ‘heightening of awareness.’ But often, the jargon is a cover for a lack of specificity. What we really […]

Pluto: Go Deeper
“Transcendence” is a word astrologers commonly use to talk about Pluto’s transits and its aspects to other planets in the birth chart. But before we can hope to transcend a situation, we must first commit to being full engaged in it. When Pluto is involved, this commitment carries some risk….

Moon Square Mars
Moon square Mars is a highly emotional, combustible and passionate combination. The square brings such intense feelings and moods to crisis point, so these people more than most, need to vent this great energy into some project which fuses the Moon with Mars. This could manifest in a variety of ways; starting at the most base level would be sexual conquesting. In a man it would be more likely to be a great appetite for women, plain and simple. In a woman it would just be a need to express themselves sexually, otherwise they may feel like they have permanent premenstrual tension. If the sexual expression is thwarted in any way then of course the flip side is great anger and rage. The next level up would be a great urge to protect and defend their family, but also a need for their family to get ahead. They will work long hours so their children go to the best schools, success and competativeness is encouraged, but they may be a little too gung-ho and pushy with their kids. This could also describe a mother who was very feisty and passed on the message to her child that failure was not an option. […]
Moon Quincunx Ceres
Moon quincunx Ceres like all the 150 degree aspects, strives for perfection. Since both Ceres and the Moon are ultra-feminine they could be obsessed with the quest of the perfect female. In a woman this could be about perfecting her own beauty, but in a man this could manifest in the quest for the perfect woman. This may result in an insatiable, but also restless sexdrive. It could be comfort eating or comfort kissing! The Moon and Ceres are also both symbols of the mother so this subject will strive to become the perfect hostess, mother or nursemaid. But they can equally be accused of interfering and fussing when they go too far. At their best they will bake the most sumptuous cakes, or create the most voluptuous and sensually arousing music or art. If you do happen to fall ill they will make the perfect nurse, puffing up your pillows and making you the most heavenly chicken soup you ever tasted. Moon quincunx Ceres is extremely hands-on and lush. They love to touch, savour and caress the things they value. However they are surprising generous with their abundance, it’s like they milk what they have for all its worth […]
Moon Conjunct Neptune
Moon conjunct Neptune conjures up images of nocturnal sea mist and inky black oceans, infinite and unfathomable. It is the slippery, ethereal mermaid, slipping in and out of the waves, impossible to catch. The moon glistens over her tail is she flashes in and out of view, tantalizing, teasing just out of reach.
Moon Opposite Mercury
Moon opposition Mercury surfaces in an internal battle between the logical mind and gut instinct. But the restlessness creates a very driven personality who is constantly in a state of flux like the tides washing in and out. This can make for a very creative, self-purifying individual
Mars Retrograde: Just What Are You Doing Down There?

Moon Conjunct Mercury
Moon conjunct Mercury can be very naughty or very nice. This is the trickster we are talking about after all. At best, the combination of logic and intuition gives great common sense.
