In Pursuit of Believing Again, Jupiter Stations Direct
A bit of a cosmic tilt was experienced from last month’s energetic aspects of the Uranus/Pluto square and the solar/lunar eclipses. Mars also shifted from the fiery speed of Aries, into steady Taurus, which is currently encouraging patience, determination and real ‘oomph’ from our creative efforts. And as we pave strong, secure grounds to get where we’re going this time, we’re also restructuring our reality and moral standards into something durable with Saturn retrograde.

Joy, Pleasure, Happiness and Chocolate
As you tuck into your Easter egg this morning, you may want to as yourself this: what is the difference between joy and pleasure? This week I listened to the writer Anthony Seldon talking on the radio, distinguishing between pleasure, which we might get from eating chocolate, happiness which we might get from sharing chocolate with friends, and joy which is transcendant. (He starts at around 24 minutes). Accordingly, pleasure is a passing thing, where some of us get stuck: eating another chocolate bar, reading another trashy magazine. You might associate that with the sign Taurus, the most sensual of […]

The #Astrology of the Red Blood Moon Eclipse
(Astrology Explored) WANTED: Reliable end of the world prophecy. False prophets need not apply. Since the time man started to parse the heavens, we’ve used the stars as an excuse to proclaim God’s (or gods’) righteousness will descend upon us … Continue reading →
Libra Full Moon Eclipse: Force Majeure
In the Swedish movie Force Majeure, Ebba, Tomas and their children are vacationing in the Alps one morning when, while sitting at breakfast on the viewing deck, a controlled avalanche gets a little too close for comfort. Tomas reassures everyone that it is not heading for their breakfast table but Ebba is not so sure. Indeed the blustery mayhem […]
Libra Lunar Eclipse: What Are You Hiding?
We imagine that Libra demands that we always make nice and give in to others, but that’s not quite it. Libra simply asks that we balance the needs of one against the needs of another.

Full Moon Eclipse in Libra
The April 4th Full Moon eclipse (at 14 degrees Libra) will trigger the final Uranus/Pluto square (even though it’s technically finished). So while you may be over the whole Uranus/Pluto thing (with your issue wrapped up) this eclipse will still … Continue reading →
Breaking The Mold, Saturn Retrograde, Uranus Pluto Square
Saturn retrograde. What we’ve consistently persisted in building and accomplishing, will slowly start to grow exhaustingly heavy with Saturn stationing retrograde on Saturday, March 14. Saturn is the great disciplinary for responsibily and inner strength, which is also connected with rules, duties, tradition, ties that bind, self-discipline, restrictions and consequences. Whatever we’ve been carrying to enforce conditions, will finally start to […]
Divine Distortions, Mercury enters Pisces
Mercury (thoughts, communications, travel) recently joined Sun and Neptune in the imaginative realm of Pisces on Thursday March 12. During the next three weeks, there can be a hint of woozy/grogginess, dizzy confusion, as well as heightened sensitivity. We’re cosmically inspired to look for what we’re searching for, from a different view of our surroundings. During this changing cycle, vision can blur, as […]
