  • Uranus stations direct at 28 deg Aries

Uranus direct continues the forward momentum that Mars into Aries and the January 5th New Moon eclipse started.

Uranus exited Aries for Taurus on May 15th, 2018 but then (due to its retrograde) re-entered Aries on November 6th, 2018. Since November, you may have experienced more shocks or shake -ups as any remaining areas of your life that needed to be liberated were given a kick.

Now you’re moving forward, as the last vestiges of the past have been burnt away. Watch for progress in an area requiring courage, initiative or brand new beginnings (perhaps dating all the way back to May 27th, 2010, when Uranus first entered Aries).

There will be a sense of urgency as Uranus powers through the last degrees of Aries, making its final exit on March 6th, 2019. In some cases, what began around May 2010 could end (this would only happen if the situation was meant to be your catalyst for change and nothing more). If something is leaving, you can’t stop it. If you feel increasing detachment from your current situation, this is timely. If your past is rapidly diminishing in the rearview mirror, this too is timely.

As you look back to 2010, consider how far you’ve come. What have you freed yourself from and where has your courage taken you?

Mars in Aries

by  • 

Is it just me or is it getting hot in here? Mars rules Aries, so is at his strongest, most physical, most vital, most impulsive, most headstrong, most independent and most selfish here. Mars is a hot and masculine planet and Aries a hot, cardinal, and masculine sign, making this arguably the most masculine and …

Mars’ Aries Ingress: Light The Fire for 2019

Mars enters Aries on December 31st, giving us all a fresh surge of courage and passion as we face down the New Year.

Mars rules Aries, so the planet of action, anger, sex and initiative is at full strength. Excellent for jump-starting a new project, regime or lifestyle. Or, for making the first move. Where Aries sits in your chart is where Mars will be heating things up. However, Mars in Aries is impatient and impulsive, so staying power is not always great.

Yes, Mars will be making difficult squares to Saturn and Pluto in Capricorn (dates and degrees below) but I see these as challenges to be met and corners to be turned. If any planetary energy is ready to power you through a challenge, it’s Mars in Aries. You may experience these squares as frustrations, blocks or confrontations with others (I’ll go into more detail in the daily posts) and you will have to slow down. But Saturn and Pluto can be the grit that gives you traction and tests your courage. And, Saturn especially will be the test that proves if what you’ve started will continue. Will you commit (Saturn) to this course of action (Mars)?

Here are the aspects Mars in Aries will make:

  • Jan 8th: square Mercury in Capricorn (4 deg)

  • Jan 18th: trine Venus in Sagittarius (11 deg)

  • Jan 21st: square Saturn in Capricorn (13 deg)

  • Jan 25th: trine Jupiter in Sagittarius (16 deg)

  • Jan 29th: sextile Black Moon Lilith in Aquarius (16 deg)

  • Feb 1st: square Pluto in Capricorn (21 deg)

  • Feb 7th: sexitle Mercury in Aquarius (25 deg)

  • Feb 9th: square the South Node in Capricorn/North Node in Cancer (26 deg)

  • Feb 13th: conjunct Uranus (29 deg)

  • Feb 13th: opposite Pallas in Libra (29 deg)

  • Feb 14th: Taurus ingress

December 20th, 2018: Pause and Confirm

by  • 

Pieter Brueghel the Elder

Pieter Brueghel the Elder

  • Waxing Inconjunct between the Taurus Moon and Sagittarius Sun (28 deg)

  • Sagittarius Sun trine Uranus Rx in Aries (28 deg)

The Waxing Inconjunct can bring up some frustrating blocks to forward momentum. Money, security or the need to take stock of an existing situation will be incompatible with an ideal, hope or area of expansion. And yet both must be integrated – you’re still moving towards something new (or broadening your reach) while stabilizing what you already have. Perhaps your foundation needs attention; this will enable you to move forward from a place of greater assurance.

Fortunately, the Sun’s trine to Uranus can help as you’re encouraged to keep putting energy into that new/innovative/liberating development. While this is not entirely new (Uranus was previously at this sign and deg around April 2018) it’s still a bit of a risk – there’s excitement and trepidation. Trust that you can work with this, even as you briefly slow down today in order to secure material resources or establish your values (there could be some core issues that need to be reaffirmed before you move on).
