  • Neptune stations direct in Pisces (13 deg)

  • Mercury Rx in Sagittarius sextile Pallas in Libra (8 deg)

Neptune

Retrograde since June 18th (from 16 to 13 deg Pisces) Neptune direct is about moving forward after the last remnants of an illusion/dream/outdated situation have dissolved. There may be a release as something fades away. If Neptune has been triggering confusion or loss of focus, this can be a time when you make some headway and progress further into the unknown country (forward means you’re one step closer to the other side).

If you have a natal plant or point at:

  • 13 deg of the Mutable signs, Neptune will be permanently done with you as of December 27th, 2018 (roughly)

  • 14 deg of the Mutable signs, Neptune will be permanently done with you as of February, 2019 (roughly)

  • 17 to 18 deg of the Mutable signs, you’ll be getting your first taste of Neptune around April 2019

Mercury/Pallas

Mercury in Sag makes the first of two sextiles to Pallas. This is a quiet but positive influence – any harmonious aspect between Mercury and Pallas blends information/communication with strategy. Pallas in Libra is about relationship or diplomatic strategies, and boosted by Mercury in Sag, we have expansive communication to deliver these strategies. Meaning, a convincing way to send your message.

But Mercury is Rx, so this will be a revision of previous information, or a second request. Ask again and restrategize. Mercury direct will sextile Pallas again on December 29th, so the plan may not roll forward in its entirety until then.

For now, rest assured that this is a good time to adjust those solutions and have them favourably received. And it’s happening when Neptune goes direct, so you know there will be progress, even if it’s slow.

As life continues to change and evolve, we’re put into our own individual position of either hanging on to what we know is stable – or to let go and flow (Pisces in Mars). To try and do both – to control AND and to surrender – would require intense juggling, as we would be challenged to […]

October 19th, 2018: What’s Meant To Happen

by  •

  • Waxing Trine between the Aquarius Moon and Libra Sun (26 deg)

  • Mercury in Scorpio trine Neptune Rx in Pisces (14 deg)

  • Mercury in Scorpio square Mars in Aquarius (14 deg)

Waxing Trine

The Waxing Trine indicates a natural flow between partnership and independence, one-on-one and the group. All the social angles are covered, making it easy to connect with others on various levels. The catch is that you have to keep it light – the Air signs call for detachment and intellectual connections. Overall, this trine has a lively vibe that that enables the progress of any type of relationship.

Mercury

Despite the flow of the trine, Mercury’s square to Mars does suggest that communication will be tense. The urge to dig deep for answers (and this can be rooted in the desire to control by knowing all the “secrets”) will clash with actions that demand freedom. There may be tension between wanting to step back versus wanting to know more. The result can be angry words and forceful demands.

The Neptune/Mercury trine can help. If you encounter pressure to reveal more than you’re comfortable with, or you’re the one applying the pressure, take a deep breath, exhale and let go. Accept that you can’t force the words or knowledge – some things aren’t meant to be known, and you don’t have to open up if you don’t want to. Neptune encourages release, forgiveness and its own brand of detachment via transcendence. What you need to know will come to you, as will the right words.

The common theme today is the trine – natural flow. There is no need to force anything, because what’s meant to unfold will do so without effort.

September 30th, 2018: Fact, Fantasy and Pluto Direct

by  •

  • Mercury in Libra inconjunct Neptune Rx in Pisces (14 deg)

  • Pluto stations direct in Capricorn (18 deg)

Fact and Fantasy

Mercury/Neptune is the disconnect between fact and fantasy. Mercury in Libra puts this in the context of one-on-one discussions or projected ideas. What you hear may be different from what’s being said, and what you say may be misinterpreted. But, the issue that’s blurring the facts cannot be ignored, because there’s something that’s amplifying sensitivity – alternate messages are leaking in. What’s responsible for the crossed signals? Make room for what you suspect but don’t allow it undermine you.

Pluto Direct

Pluto forges ahead, continuing its agenda of deconstruction and death of the old order. If you have anything around 18 degrees of the Cardinal signs, Pluto is done (or will be within the next month). That transformation is complete. 19 deg will be hit by Pluto from roughly November to December 2018, and then Pluto will also be done with that degree.

The next Pluto Rx will cover 23 to 20 deg Capricorn, so this is the upcoming zone of intensification (from April to October 2019). In the meantime, Pluto direct can initiate a loss, empowerment or total overhaul in your life.

Note that (for the first time) Pluto will hit 22 deg Capricorn around March 2019. This is the degree of the Saturn/Pluto conjunction (Jan 12th, 2020). It will be a massive new beginning involving power and authority (I’ve written a PDF about it if you’re interested). March 2019 may deliver some early hints about what’s to come, especially if you have anything in the Cardinal or Earth signs at this deg.

Astrology in Moby Dick

by  • 

” Halloa! here’s signs and wonders truly! That, now, is what old Bowditch in his Epitome calls the zodiac, and what my almanac below calls ditto. I’ll get the almanac and as I have heard devils can be raised with Daboll’s arithmetic, I’ll try my hand at raising a meaning out of these queer curvicues here with the Massachusetts calendar. Here’s the book. Let’s see now. Signs and wonders; and the sun, he’s always among ’em. Hem, hem, hem; here they are–here they go–all alive:–Aries, or the Ram; Taurus, or the Bull and Jimimi! here’s Gemini himself, or the Twins. […]
