Mythic Zodiac

February 2024 Forecast

This month promises to be an intense Aquarian month with six planets in Aquarius, the ruler of Aquarius turning direct, and a New Moon in Aquarius.   Let’s break it down.

Jan 20 - Sun entered Aquarius

Jan 20 - Pluto entered Aquarius

Jan 27 - Uranus, the ruler of Aquarius, turned direct

Feb 5 - Mercury enters Aquarius

Feb 9 - New Moon is in Aquarius

Feb 13 - Mars enters Aquarius

Feb 16 - Venus enters Aquarius 

You may want to look at the house in your birth chart that contains Aquarius.  Change, rebellion, brilliance, original ideas, and crankiness will happen in that area of your life.  See the Meaning of the houses here.

The planets will start bunching up in Pisces toward the end of this month and that will make March an intense Pisces month.

                                      ++++++++++

All the planets are moving direct this month.  So it’s a time of developing new interests and moving ahead. It is not a time for reflection.  

A critical period is Feb 12, 13, and 14 when Mars conjuncts Pluto at 0 degrees of Aquarius. This is a massive trigger point for the world. It could be sudden, sharp, and ruthless.  Because it is happening at the beginning of Aquarius, It could reveal some events that will dominate the Aquarian period we are entering.  

 

Dates to Watch

Note to my Astrology Clients. Use your Planetary Placement and Ascendant sheet to find if you have a personal planet (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, or Mars) or the ascendant within 2 degrees of the degree of the transits listed below.  If so, the transit will have a major impact on you.

Feb 2 – Groundhog Day. If the groundhog sees his shadow when he wakes up, we will have six more weeks of winter. I’ll be watching out for this because I believe not only in the gods of ancient Greece but also in Punxsutawney Phil.

Feb 5 – Mercury enters Aquarius until Feb 23.  Mercury in Aquarius fosters innovative, unconventional thinking and communication. It's a time for progressive ideas and networking with groups.

Feb 7 – Venus Trine Uranus at 18 degrees of Capricorn/Taurus.  This aspect suggests unexpected but pleasant changes in relationships or finances. It's a good time for socializing and enjoying new experiences.

Feb 8 – Sun Square Uranus at 19 Aquarius/Taurus. This aspect can bring tension, as the desire for personal freedom (Sun in Aquarius) clashes with sudden changes or stubbornness (Uranus in Taurus). Expect the unexpected.

Feb 9 – New Moon at 20 Aquarius square Uranus. New Moons are about new beginnings; in Aquarius, it's about new ideas or social causes. The square to Uranus indicates potential disruptions or surprises.

Feb 10 – Chinese Year of the Dragon.  The Dragon Year should bring power, nobility, honor, luck, and success unless you were born as an Ox, Horse, Goat, Dog, or Pig. I was born under the sign of the dragon and have not met with honor, luck, or success. I think  I’m losing faith in the Chinese.

          Mercury squares Jupiter at 8 degrees of Aquarius/Taurus. This aspect can lead to big ideas and overestimation or lack of detail. Be wary of overpromising.

Feb 13 – Mars enters Aquarius until March 22. Mars in Aquarius drives action toward social causes, innovation, and sometimes rebellion. It's a time for collective action and fighting for beliefs.

Feb 14 – Valentine’s Day – Don’t celebrate with your sweetie today because of the Mars Conjunct Pluto. You may butt heads. Wait until Saturday. Or better yet, Thursday the 22^nd.

Mars Conjunct Pluto at 0 Aquarius: This intense aspect can bring power struggles or deep transformations, especially related to collective actions or societal structures.  

Feb 16 - Venus enters Aquarius until March 11. Venus in Aquarius values freedom in relationships and enjoys unconventional or intellectual connections.

          Mercury Square Uranus at 19 Aquarius/Taurus.  This aspect can bring excitement and changes to your daily routine and interactions, which can cause upsets and nervous tension. You may receive upsetting news or experience something unexpected that forces you to change plans.

Feb 17 – Venus conjuncts Pluto at 0 Degrees of Aquarius. This aspect can intensify relationships, bringing deep emotional experiences and possibly power dynamics.

Feb 18 – Sun in Pisces. The Sun's move into Pisces focuses on empathy, intuition, and spirituality. It's a time for compassion and artistic pursuits.

Feb 22 – Venus Conjunct Mars at 6 degrees of Aquarius.  Aquarius isn’t a very lovey/dovey sign, but try it today. This conjunction can spark new relationships or bring energy to existing ones, though in Aquarius, the focus might be more on intellectual compatibility than romance.

Feb 23 – Mercury enters Pisces until March 9. Communication becomes more intuitive and less logical. It's a good time for creative thinking and empathetic conversations.

Feb 24 – Full Moon at 5 Virgo opposite Saturn. Full Moons bring culmination or closure. In Virgo, this might relate to health, work, or practical matters.  With Saturn, it’s a time to streamline, prune, and organize.

          Venus Square Jupiter at 10 degrees of Aquarius/Taurus.  This will have an instant impact on your ability to connect with others.  You will feel very generous, but exercising some moderation is important to avoid going overboard with spending. 

Feb 27 – Mars Square Jupiter at 10 degrees of Aquarius/Taurus. This aspect can lead to overconfidence or conflicts due to differing beliefs or principles.

Feb 28 – Sun Conjunct Mercury at 8 Pisces and conjunct Saturn.   It's time to confront any limitations or conflicts hindering your growth and reassess your goals, values, and sense of self. It calls for a disciplined approach and a willingness to face reality.

          Mercury conjunct Saturn at 9 Pisces.  This transit can cause confusion, negative thinking, and communication problems. Your mind is slower than usual, so you may forget things or make mistakes when writing. This is not a good time for research and studies or for making important decisions.

          Sun conjunct Saturn at 9 Pisces signifies a significant period of personal growth, challenges, and increased responsibility.  Don’t you hate the word responsibility?

Sun/Mercury/Saturn-.  The above conjunctions in Pisces can bring serious, reflective thinking, focusing on responsibilities, limitations, or more profound spiritual or emotional insights.

Feb 29 – Leap day, don’t forget to leap.

 

OUTER PLANET TRANSITS FOR THIS MONTH:

JUPITER will move from 7 to 11 degrees of Taurus.  He will stay in Taurus until May 26, 2024.  Jupiter is the big, fat, happy guy who is expansive in everything. In Taurus, he wants to buy property, build up his bank account, and invest in growth stocks. Look to the house in your birth chart that contains Taurus. This coming year can bring good luck and opportunities in the areas ruled by your natal Taurus house.

SATURN is in Pisces until May 26, 2025. This month, Saturn moves from 6 to 9 degrees of Pisces.  Saturn rules your material world and especially your career.  If you have the ascendant or any personal planets anywhere from 6 to 9 degrees of Pisces or Virgo,  you may be in store for some hard lessons about the issues in the house containing Pisces and or Virgo.  Pisces is a creative dreamer. While in Pisces, Saturn, he will try solidifying your dreams and fantasies.

URANUS is in Taurus until April 2026.  Uranus just turned direct on January 27 so he is moving slowly this month and is staying at 19 degrees of Taurus.  This is the time to break loose and radically change your life. I believe in ‘cooperating with the inevitable.’  If you have Uranus in a challenging aspect to your ascendant or personal planets (17 to 21 degrees of Taurus or Scorpio), go on a long vacation, preferably somewhere you have never been. Or make some major changes in your life. Taurus represents the earth. Expect news about farming, food, earthquakes, volcanos, tornadoes, or other major weather changes while Uranus is in Taurus. 

NEPTUNE is in Pisces until 2026.  Neptune will move from 25 to 26 degrees of Pisces this month.   If you have the ascendant or personal planets anywhere from 23 to 28 degrees of Pisces or Virgo, you may lack focus during this time and want to daydream. Beware of a betrayal, a disappointment, and a sense of drifting. Neptune can also bring artistic, musical, and creative expression, increased dreams, and spiritual insights. Watch for inspired films to come out when Neptune is in Pisces.

PLUTO is in Capricorn until Nov 2024.  This month, Pluto will move from 0 to 1 degree of Aquarius.  Pluto grinds away at our psyche, bringing up all sorts of difficult psychological issues. You should run to your nearest therapist, especially if you have the ascendant or personal planets anywhere from 28 degrees of  Capricorn to 3 degrees of Aquarius.  Pluto asks what needs to die to be reborn.

Enjoy this month.

September 2024 Forecast

 

We need to love the children more than we hate each other….. RFK Jr

 

Last month, I predicted a surprise at the Democratic convention that would disrupt or alter the plans being made. I initially thought this surprise would occur during the convention itself, but instead, it happened outside of it when RFK Jr. announced he was supporting the Republican ticket. Given that his announcement was made during the period of the intense Full Moon on Aug 19 that impacted the birth charts of some of the major players at the Democratic convention, I believe his entering the race at that time will have significant implications for the democratic party.

I evaluate political candidates in two ways to determine if they are genuinely committed to the issues they put forward. First, I examine their birth chart to see if they genuinely care about these issues or if they are telling us what they need to say to get elected. Second, I consider their past achievements related to these issues.  In RFK Jr.’s case, his birth chart reveals a stellium (four planets plus the North Node, symbolizing his destiny) in Capricorn. Capricorn is the sign of duty, responsibility, principles, and standards. The stellium is in the 6th House of Health and Service. He also has an emotional drive to protect children represented by the Moon in Cancer. RFK Jr runs a nonprofit called Children’s Health Defense, which is dedicated to eliminating toxic exposures for children. His past achievements include winning millions of dollars in lawsuits against chemical companies, such as Monsanto, which produces Roundup and glyphosate.

One particularly fascinating aspect of his chart is that his Sun is at 27 degrees of Capricorn, which aligns precisely with Pluto in the U.S. natal chart. There is only one day each year when a person’s Sun can be in conjunction with the U.S. Pluto, and that day happens to be RFK Jr.'s birthday. Pluto is the planet of fate, thus he is destined to play a significant role in the destiny of the U.S.  

This alignment suggests that his Sun sheds light on the shadow side of our country. For instance, we have government regulatory agencies now staffed by the very corporations that they were created to regulate. Our country has been experiencing a Pluto return for the past five years, marking the first time transiting Pluto has conjuncted our natal Pluto since the nation’s founding. Pluto's transit through Capricorn takes 248 years, so it won’t return to this position until 2254. This period is a significant transformational time for the U.S., as Capricorn represents the government, established institutions, financial systems, and the structures that underpin the country and the world. Transiting Pluto’s influence seeks to reveal, destroy, and rebuild these processes. Anyone with their natal Sun at 27 degrees Capricorn, like RFK Jr., is uniquely positioned to play a significant role in this evolution.

Dates to Watch:

Note to my Astrology Clients. Use your Planetary Placement and Ascendant sheet to find if you have a personal planet (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, or Mars) or the ascendant within 2 degrees of the degree of the transits listed below.  If so, the transit will have a significant impact on you.

Sep 1 – Uranus stations and turns retrograde at 27 Taurus. This is a time to revisit and reflect on changes you have made related to your finances, possessions, and values.   This is important for those born between the 17^th and 21^st of May.

Pluto retrograde goes back into Capricorn until Nov 19, 2024, when he will return to Aquarius for 20 years.  Pluto entered Capricorn in 2008 with two brief entries into Aquarius from March 23 to June 11, 2023, and from Jan 24 to Sep 24. Pluto is the god of what is hidden: riches, wealth, and power. Pluto in Capricorns is a time when Pluto transforms our societal structures, governments, and institutions.  This has happened since 2008, when Pluto entered Capricorn precisely on the precise day of the financial crisis.

Sep 2 – New Moon at 11 Virgo. This new Moon is opposite Saturn.  Saturn structures a new, fresh beginning. You may feel motivated to start a new project, especially around self-improvement, daily routines, health, and service to others.  Saturn will help here, lending you the discipline that you will need to make these changes and to help you build healthy practices that are solid and enduring.

Sep 3 - Mars Square Neptune at 29 degrees of Gemini/Pisces. Be careful when giving information to the wrong person. It could come back to bite you. Put your energy into fighting for some worthy cause.

Sep 4 – Mars enters Cancer and lasts until Nov 3. Your actions may be based on emotions and instinct rather than logic.  You feel you need to protect yourself and your loved ones.  You may not wish to confront people or issues, which can lead to passive-aggressive behavior. There could be inner tension as Mars’ desire for action doesn’t always align with Cancer’s need for security and comfort. This can result in moodiness, frustration, or difficulty expressing anger directly. The challenge is to channel this energy constructively through creative or domestic projects or by focusing on protecting and nurturing those you care about.

Sep 7 – Mercury Square Uranus at 28 degrees of Leo/Taurus.  You may hear some news today that you don’t like. Keep calm and don’t worry about it.  People around you notice that you have a different way of thinking and communicating. Even though you have a brilliant mind, you are a bit eccentric.  Go with it.  Otherwise, life is just too boring for all of us.

Sep 8 – Sun Opposite Saturn at 16 degrees of Virgo/’Pisces. You may need to work hard today. You may look for ways out of it, but there aren’t. Just accept your obligations and duties.  The work you do now may prove of value later.

Sep 9 – Mercury enters Virgo and stays until Sep 26.  When Mercury enters Virgo, it moves into one of the signs it rules, which enhances its natural qualities of communication, analysis, and mental clarity. This transit strongly focuses on detail, precision, efficiency, and practicality in thinking and communication.  Health and wellness may be a theme during this time.  This is an excellent time to get organized.

Sep 12 – Sun Square Jupiter at 20 degrees of Virgo/Gemini. You could run into problems in your home or business. Practice some self-control in your response to these problems.   You may have some lucky breaks and popularity, but that can lead to an inflated ego and other excesses in life.

Sep 15 – Venus Trine Jupiter at 20 degrees of Libra/Gemini.  What’s not to like? Both Venus and Jupiter are benefic planets.  You may receive a gift or favor from someone today. You are at ease in showing love and affection but don’t forget to show these qualities to yourself.

Sep 17 – Full Moon – Lunar Eclipse at 25 Pisces.  This Full Moon is square Jupiter, sextile Uranus, conjunct Neptune, and sextile Pluto.   This is a complicated Lunar Eclipse,  but it is not all bad. The Lunar Eclipse blends the themes of emotional intensity, expansion, optimism, dreams, illusions, and spirituality.  There is just a hint of Saturn to keep you grounded.  Full Moons indicate endings, and Uranus will help you to let go and release something that no longer serves you.  We have a Solar Eclipse on Oct 2 at 10 degrees of Libra.  I will write about both eclipses in a separate report this month.

Sep 18 – Mercury Opposite Saturn at 15 degrees of Virgo/Pisces. This is a good time to postpone any trips unless it is a trip for business.  Be careful what you say or put into writing.  You feel a little mean and sarcastic now.

Sep 19 – Sun Trine Uranus at 27 degrees of Virgo/Taurus.  This is a good day for fun and entertainment.  You could have unexpected guests today, and you will welcome them.  It will be easy today for you to express your uniqueness in a flowing and harmonious way that does not upset others.

Sep 20 – Sun Opposite Neptune at 28 degrees of Virgo/Pisces. Avoid impractical financial decisions today. Postpone commitments of any kind, especially in romance. Go to the movies.

Sep 21 – Mercury square Jupiter at 20 degrees of Virgo/Gemini.  Be careful not to overspend and waste your energy on unreliable people.  You could suffer from indecision and procrastination.

Sep 22 – Sun enters Libra/Fall Equinox until Oct 22.  This is a time of balance, as day and night are of equal length, and the Sun's entry into Libra highlights themes of harmony, relationships, and fairness. This is a necessary time to strengthen your bonds with the key people in your life.  Because Venus rules Libra, this sign is associated with beauty, art, and aesthetics.  You could have a heightened appreciation for the arts and all things beautiful.  This is an excellent time for all creative endeavors. Libra is the most sociable sign, so get out and circulate it this month.

        Venus enters Scorpio and stays until Oct 17. The planet of love, beauty, and relationships is profoundly diving into the underworld of passion.  This can bring emotional intensity, and hidden aspects of your relationships may be revealed.  Superficial relationships will not satisfy you now because you desire meaningful, passionate, and life-changing relationships.  There could be a strong focus on attraction, desire, control, jealousy, or possessiveness.  However, Pluto also offers healing around these issues once you dive deep into them with awareness and care.

          Sun Trine Pluto at 29 degrees of Virgo/Capricorn. You may receive some good advice today. You could collaborate with someone who is powerful and has deep knowledge about subjects you are curious about.

          Venus squares Pluto at 29 degrees of Libra/Capricorn. This could put you in an embarrassing situation with loved ones, and trouble could come because you are too harsh in your judgment.

Sep 24 – Mercury Trine Uranus at 27 degrees of Virgo/Taurus. You feel vivacious and are excited about the future.  You may want to travel, write, and start a new creative project today.

Sep 25 – Mercury Opposite Neptune at 28 Virgo/Pisces.  You may find some information that was hidden.  Some of the information is a scandal that will surprise you.

Sep 26 – Mercury enters Libra and stays until Oct 14.  The planet of communication and thought enters Libra's harmonious, diplomatic, and relationship-oriented energy. This transit encourages balanced, fair-minded communication and emphasizes social interactions, partnerships, and the pursuit of harmony. Libra is connected to beauty and aesthetics and can influence how you express yourself creatively during this time. Smooth over any misunderstandings and engage with others to foster peace and understanding.

          Mercury Trine Pluto at 29 degrees of Virgo/Capricorn.  Someone you admire can help you today, especially when it comes to joining an organization.  You may decide you want just true friends who appreciate your depth of thinking.  This is an excellent day to do some research.

Sep 30 – Mars Trine Saturn at 14 degrees of Caner/Pisces. This is an excellent time to work with the younger and older generations and bring them together.  You are optimistic about money.  You could do a first-class job on any assignment that you receive.

          Sun Conjunct Mercury at 7 degrees of Virgo. This could come out as desiring a trip or focusing your mind on doing detailed work.  It’s a good day to work to fulfill your ambitions. Business matters are favorable.

 

OUTER PLANET TRANSITS FOR AUGUST 2024:

JUPITER will move from 19 to 21 degrees of Gemini.  Jupiter is the big, fat, happy guy who is expansive in everything. In Gemini, he wants to speak, learn, teach, and write. Look to the house in your birth chart that contains Gemini.  For the next year, Jupiter will bring good luck and opportunities in the areas ruled by your natal Gemini house.

SATURN is in Pisces until May 26, 2025.  Saturn is retrograde all month and will move from 16 to 14 degrees of Pisces.  Saturn rules your material world and especially your career.  If you have the ascendant or any personal planets anywhere from 12 to 18 degrees of Pisces or Virgo, you may be in store for some hard lessons about the issues in the house containing Pisces and or Virgo.  Pisces is a creative dreamer. While in Pisces, Saturn, he will try solidifying your dreams and fantasies. On the world stage, Saturn in Pisces can result in our institutions dissolving and the old systems breaking down.

URANUS is in Taurus until April 2026.  This month it turns retrograde on the 1st and will move from 27 to 25 degrees of Taurus. This is the time to break loose and radically change your life. I believe in ‘cooperating with the inevitable.’  If you have Uranus in a challenging aspect to your ascendant or personal planets (23 to 29 degrees of Taurus or Scorpio), go on an extended vacation, preferably to somewhere you have never been.  Or make some significant changes in your life. Taurus represents the earth. Expect news about farming, food, earthquakes, volcanos, tornadoes, or other significant weather changes while Uranus is in Taurus. 

NEPTUNE is in Pisces until 2026.  Neptune is retrograde all month and will move from 29 to 28 degrees of Pisces.  If you have the ascendant or personal planets anywhere from 27 degrees of Pisces or Virgo to 2 degrees of Aries, you may lack focus during this time and want to daydream. Beware of a betrayal, a disappointment, and a sense of drifting. Neptune can also bring artistic, musical, and creative expression, increased dreams, and spiritual insights. Watch for inspired films to come out when Neptune is in Pisces.

Watch the news like a hawk this month,

July 2024 Forecast

Saturn turned retrograde on June 29 at 19 Pisces and will remain until mid-November 2025.  When a planet is moving retrograde, its impact is more intense.   So, during this period, you will be forced to deal with Saturn's themes of obstacles, delays, and resistance.  Saturn loves structure.

Neptune turns retrograde at 29 Pisces on July 2.  At this point, Saturn and Neptune are only 6 degrees apart, close enough to be called a conjunction.  How do these two planets work together?  Well, they don’t.

Saturn loves structure, Neptune is anti-structure, and Saturn loves discipline; Neptune loves chaos.  When I look at transits like this in a person’s birth chart, I can tell how this transit will affect the client by looking at how Saturn and Neptune are positioned in their birth chart.  In other words, if you have a strong Saturn based on sign and house and it has positive aspects, you can channel Neptune's imagination and dreams into your work and/or a particular project.  If you have a strong Neptune, you could tune into your higher mind, start a meditation practice, go on a spiritual retreat, or just put your feet up and binge on streaming channels.

For all of us, Saturn with Neptune can help us see through the lies and manipulations swirling around us at this time, either in our personal lives or on the world stage.

 

Dates to Watch:

Note to my Astrology Clients. Use your Planetary Placement and Ascendant sheet to find if you have a personal planet (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, or Mars) or the ascendant within 2 degrees of the degree of the transits listed below.  If so, the transit will have a significant impact on you.

July 2 – Neptune turns retrograde and lasts until Dec 7.  Neptune is a boundary-dissolving planet.  Planets gain strength during their retrograde motion. Be alert for scams and deceptions of all kinds during this period.  This influence will be strong all month since the inner planets will aspect Neptune.

                   Mercury Trine Neptune at 29 degrees of Cancer/Pisces. This is positive for important correspondence and interviews. You may experience contentment, happiness, and satisfaction with your communication with others.  Good news can come from a long distance.

          Mercury enters Leo and stays until the 25^th of the month. Mercury is associated with communication, intellect, and adaptability.  As the fastest planet in our solar system, it promotes quick thinking, analytical abilities, and a desire for knowledge.  In Leo, you want to shine because of your so-called brilliant intelligence.

          Venus Trine Saturn at 19 degrees of Cancer/Pisces.  You may hear from a friend that you have not seen in a long time. You can enjoy and benefit from a project you have been working on.

July 3 – Mercury Opposite Pluto at 1 degree of Leo/Aquarius.  You can be quite impulsive and outspoken today. Try to guard against offending people, especially those in authority. You could get involved in many disputes, especially with young people.

July 4 – Independence Day in the USA

July 4 – New Moon at 14 Cancer connects Saturn and Mars well.  It’s an excellent time to act and serve the community or your group.   But in close relationships, you need a little tact now.

July 10 – Sun Trine Saturn at 19 degrees of Cancer/Pisces.  This is a good day to deal with elders.  Get involved with projects that will increase in value.  You can achieve a lot now in your career.

July 11 – Venus enters Leo and lasts until August 4. This is a generous, loving placement for Venus.  You are proud of your accomplishments and of the people that you love.  You feel like a queen and want to be adored and pampered.  Be careful of extravagance.

          Venus Trine Neptune at 29 degrees of Cancer/Pisces.  This is an excellent day to decorate your home or rearrange furniture.  It also favors long-distance travel and inspirational thinking.

July 12 – Venus Opposite Pluto at 1 degree of Leo/Aquarius. An intense relationship can arise.  Be careful not to rush into it.  It could bring trouble in the future.

July 15 – Mars Conjunct Uranus at 26 degrees of Taurus. Be careful of this aspect.  The energy will start about a week before this date and a week after.  Don’t go into any dangerous situations, and be careful driving.  Mistakes at this time could be costly. Your fighting spirit is aroused, and you want to take action immediately. There could be unexpected events that could cause upset, especially in the area of the environment or the economy.

July 20 – Mars enters Gemini and lasts until September 4.  This can bring a surge of energy around Gemini topics such as writing, teaching, and all sorts of communications.   But try not to get overwhelmed by all of the ideas pouring in.  Stay focused.

July 21 – Full Moon at 29 Virgo.  Neptune and Mars are in harmony with this Full Moon. Now is an excellent time to seek reconciliation with others.   This can dissolve negative emotional entanglements.

          Mercury Square Uranus at 26 degrees of Leo/Taurus.  You don’t like the news you hear from the media or your friends. Don’t worry about this. Try to keep calm.

          Sun Trine Neptune at 29 degrees of Cancer/Pisces. Neptune rules idealism.  This is good for love and romance, but don’t rely on a ‘happy ever after’ ending.  It may not turn out that way.

          Mars Trine Pluto at 1 degree of Gemini/Aquarius.  Things are finally working out for you.  Opportunities are coming up. Rid yourself of non-essentials from your life.

July 22 – Sun enters Leo and lasts until August 22.  This period can increase vitality and self-confidence.

July 23 – Sun Opposite Pluto at 1 degree of Leo/Aquarius. Someone may ask you to join them in a new venture.  It could be a member of the opposite sex.  Avoid being misled into unwise action.

July 25 – Mercury enters Virgo and does his back-and-forth dance again.  He will turn retrograde on August 5 at 4 degrees of Virgo, then turn direct at 21 Virgo on August 28.  Mercury in Virgo wants the facts.  This is a good time to have truthful conversations.

OUTER PLANET TRANSITS FOR JULY 2024:

JUPITER will move from 8 to 14 degrees of Gemini.  Jupiter is the big, fat, happy guy who is expansive in everything. In Gemini, he wants to speak, learn, teach, and write.

SATURN is in Pisces until May 26, 2025.  Saturn turned retrograde on June 29 and will move from 19 to 18 degrees of Pisces this month.   Saturn rules your material world and especially your career.  If you have the ascendant or any personal planets anywhere from 16 to 22 degrees of Pisces or Virgo, you may be in store for some hard lessons about the issues in the house containing Pisces and or Virgo.  Pisces is a creative dreamer.

Enjoy this month.

June 2024 Forecast

The first half of the month is dominated by Jupiter in Gemini trine Pluto in Aquarius.  When we see an important aspect like this, we look to when this same aspect last occurred, so we can get a hint of how it may manifest now.  The last time we had this aspect in the same signs was in 1787.  That was the year of the first draft of our constitution.  It set up the governmental system we use today, with three branches of Government: legislative, judiciary and executive.   It established the standard of having each state represented by two senators and other states having the number of representatives based on population. The constitution was not ratified until two years later.  Is something brewing now that will affect our system of government in the next two years?  I’ve been watching the news like a hawk to discern what seeds are being  planted during the two weeks leading up the trine and the two weeks after.  So far, what stands out is the trial and conviction of former President Trump.

Another great month!  During the first half of the month, planets are piling up in Gemini.  Look to your Gemini house to see the area of your life that will move so fast you won’t be able to catch your breath.  Last month, the stellium (3 or more planets in one sign) was in Taurus, a passive month.  This month the stellium is in Gemini which will feed intellectual curiosity and is more lighthearted.  This can be a busy, frenetic, mind-expanding period.

From June 9 to the 13th, you may encounter some obstacles Don’t leap over them;  just investigate and figure out what is causing the problem. What can you learn by being stopped in your tracks?

Saturn is turning retrograde on the 29^th.  This month he is barely moving.  This is a time to solidify your beliefs and get centered because during the next two years, Saturn and Neptune will move into Aries, Uranus will go into Gemini, Jupiter just moved into Gemini and Pluto just moved into Aquarius.  All of the outer planets--Pluto, Neptune, Uranus, Saturn and Jupiter-- are moving from earth and water, which is soulful, feminine energy into masculine air and fire signs which is creative, explosive energy.  We haven’t seen this kind of shift of the slow-moving planets in our lifetime

Dates to Watch:

Note to my Astrology Clients. Use your Planetary Placement and Ascendant sheet to find if you have a personal planet (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, or Mars) or the ascendant within 2 degrees of the degree of the transits listed below.  If so, the transit will have a significant impact on you.

June 2 – Jupiter Trine Pluto is on my birthday!  The technique of solar returns states that a good aspect on your birthday will last the entire year.  I’m not a great believer in solar returns, but I think I will change my mind and believe that this good aspect will last all year.  It will expand revolutionary ideas and will be in effect the last week of May and the first half of June.   It will help us to see the big picture.

June 3 – Mercury enters Gemini and stays until June 17.  Mercury rules Gemini and is very happy, carefree, lively, curious and dazzling here.  Mercury here can be a flimflam man.  Don’t believe everything you hear, and don’t believe what you think.  It can be tricky. The best way to deal with this urge to communicate is to write or podcast. 

June 4 – Mercury Trine Pluto at 1 degree of Gemini/Aquarius.  You may feel an urge to investigate the darker secrets of our society.  You may wish to convince the world of your own opinions and perceptions.

          Mercury conjunct Jupiter at 1 degree of Gemini. This expands the ‘need to know’ aspect.   You want to bring meaning and purpose into your life.

          Sun Conjunct Venus at 16 degrees of Gemini.  This can help you be charming and diplomatic.  You will strive for beauty and harmony.

June 6 – New Moon at 16 Gemini. This New Moon is conjunct Venus and square Saturn.  You want to shine, start new projects and circulate among friends, but Saturn stands in your way. This New Moon is in effect for two weeks.  During this time, express yourself, but edit what you say and write.

June 8 – Venus Square Saturn at 19 degrees of Gemini/Pisces.  It’s time to commit to who or what you love. This brings out your loyalty.  If you are looking for a partner, try someone older.

June 9 – Mars enters Taurus and lasts until July 20. During this period, your anger may build up slowly and then explode.  You could be a time bomb.  Try not to keep your emotions inside. Work out, go hiking or blow off steam in a useful way.

Sun Square Saturn at 19 Gemini/Pisces. Be patient, the wind is not at your back; in fact it’s blowing you sideways.

June 11 – Mars Squares Pluto at 1 degree of Taurus/Aquarius.  This is not a very good aspect.  Mars is aggressive, and Pluto takes no prisoners.  The last time we had this was when Israel was attacked in Oct 2023.  Try not to get into a conflict with anyone because it won’t be quickly resolved.  Pluto digs in his heels and hangs on for a long time.

June 12 – Mercury Squares Saturn at 19 Gemini/Pisces.  You could feel tired and discouraged today. Avoid signing contracts. You could be critical, sarcastic, or pessimistic.  So keep your mouth shut and keep your opinions to yourself.  You won’t win any popularity contests today.

June 14 – Sun Conjunct  Mercury at 23 Gemini.  Mercury is being energized by the Sun today.  Since Mercury is the merchant, contact people to buy, sell, or trade.

June 16 – Venus Square Neptune at 29 Gemini/Pisces. I’ve had more clients fall madly in love when they experience this transit to their natal chart.  It usually doesn’t turn out very well.  There ends up being deception, delusion, and, finally escape.

June 17 – Venus enters Cancer and stays until July 11.  Aphrodite, the goddess of love is settling down into a family life.  Wait! That doesn’t sound like her.  She is more promiscuous than that. What to do?  Bring out her artistic side and spruce up your home with fresh paint and colorful decorations.

          Mercury enters Cancer and stays until July 2. During this period your thinking is more imaginative.  You can express your feelings in flowery, rich images.  This placement honors the storyteller and poet.  Your memory is enhanced.  Why don’t you start on the memoirs you have planned to write for the last 20 years?

          Mercury Square Neptune at 29 degrees of Gemini/Pisces. People you meet today could be space cadets.  They want to seriously discuss what it’s like where they come from—the Pleiades.

          Mercury Conjunct Venus at 29 degrees of Gemini.  You could get company today.  Your friends are stopping in and want to talk about their love life.  I know it’s boring, but they’re your friends and you picked them.

June 20 – The Sun enters Cancer and stays until July 22.  The energy is starting to change.  We are leaving the air sign of Gemini, the chatterbox, to the more soulful quiet sign of Cancer.  Gemini wanted to flit around, travel and gossip.  Cancer wants to stay home and eat popcorn while watching her favorite streaming channel.

          Sun Squares Neptune at 29 Gemini/Pisces. You could feel dreamy, indecisive and impractical today. Don’t fall for promises that seem too good to be true.

June 21 – Full Moon at 1 Capricorn is Square Neptune.  This full moon may help you see through the illusions and deceptions coming from our conventional media.

June 26 – Mercury Trine Saturn at 19 Cancer/Pisces. You can make productive decisions now.  Try to accomplish all that needs to be done. This is a good time for quiet study and writing.  Be discreet in your relationships.  You may find some helpful information.

June 29 – Saturn turns retrograde at 19 Pisces and stays retrograde until mid-November 2025.  When a planet is moving retrograde, it becomes more intense.   So during this period, you will be forced to deal with Saturn themes of authority, and resistance.  Saturn loves structure, but he is in Pisces, which has no structure.  Your task is to manifest and bring into form your dreams, creative projects, and artistic imagination.

OUTER PLANET TRANSITS FOR THIS MONTH:

JUPITER will move from 1 to 8 degrees of Gemini.  Jupiter is the big, fat, happy guy who is expansive in everything. In Gemini, he wants to speak, learn, teach and write. Look to the house in your birth chart that contains Gemini.  For the next year, Jupiter will bring good luck and opportunities in the areas ruled by your natal Gemini house.

SATURN is in Pisces until May 26, 2025his month, Saturn moves from 18 to 19 degrees of Pisces. Saturn will turn retrograde on June 29 at 19 Pisces.  Saturn rules your material world and especially your career.  If you have the ascendant or any personal planets anywhere from 16 to 21 degrees of Pisces or Virgo, you may be in store for some hard lessons about the issues in the house containing Pisces and or Virgo.  Pisces is a creative dreamer. While in Pisces, Saturn, he will try solidifying your dreams and fantasies. On the world stage, Saturn in Pisces can result in our institutions dissolving and the old systems not working anymore.

URANUS is in Taurus until April 2026.  This month, he moves from 24 to 25 degrees. This is the time to break loose and radically change your life. I believe in ‘cooperating with the inevitable.’  If you have Uranus in a challenging aspect to your ascendant or personal planets (22 to 27 degrees of Taurus or Scorpio), go on an extended vacation, preferably to somewhere you have never been before.  Or make some significant changes in your life. Taurus represents the earth. Expect news about farming, food, earthquakes, volcanos, tornadoes, or other major weather changes while Uranus is in Taurus. 

NEPTUNE is in Pisces until 2026.  Neptune will stay at 29 degrees of Pisces this month as he is slowing down to turn retrograde on July 2.  If you have the ascendant or personal planets anywhere from 27 degrees of Pisces or Virgo to 1 degree of Aries, you may lack focus during this time and want to daydream. Beware of a betrayal, a disappointment, and a sense of drifting. Neptune can also bring artistic, musical, and creative expression, increased dreams, and spiritual insights. Watch for inspired films to come out when Neptune is in Pisces.

PLUTO is in Capricorn until Nov 2024.  This month, Pluto will move from 1 to 2 degrees of Aquarius.  Pluto grinds away at our psyche, bringing up all sorts of complex psychological issues. You should run to your nearest therapist, especially if you have the ascendant or personal planets anywhere from 29 degrees of Capricorn to 4 degrees of Aquarius.  Pluto asks what needs to die to be reborn.

Enjoy this month.

May 2024 Forecast

May is a good month, especially compared to last month. The outer planets do not have challenging aspects, and Mars and Venus are in their home signs. Mars in Aries means we can positively direct our energy with few hindrances, and Venus in Taurus means we are loyal and grounded in our relationships.

Planets are moving from Taurus, an Earth sign, to Gemini, an air sign.  Taurus is a fixed sign and is all about stability and safety. Gemini is flexible and adaptable and is concerned with information, learning, teaching, and talking; oh, how they can talk! Taurus is quieter and more thoughtful.  She wants to stay home, and Gemini wants to travel. Taurus wants to luxuriate in a bubble bath. Gemini has no time for a bath--a quick shower, and she’s off looking for someone to talk to.   We will all experience the Taurus energy, especially on May 7, when we will have the Moon, Sun, Jupiter, Venus, and Uranus in Taurus.  Look for the house in your birth chart that contains Taurus, as you will have opportunities and surprises in the areas ruled by that house.  See the Meaning of the Houses here.

The energy from the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction on April 20 is still with us because the Sun and Venus are activating them this month. The Sun and Venus first hit Uranus, causing a desire for freedom, and then they impact Jupiter, creating an optimistic outlook.  If the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction at 21 degrees of Taurus impacted an essential placement in your chart, these aspects may bring up the same themes you experienced during the conjunction

Dates to Watch:

Note to my Astrology Clients. Use your Planetary Placement and Ascendant sheet to find if you have a personal planet (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, or Mars) or the ascendant within 2 degrees of the degree of the transits listed below.  If so, the transit will have a significant impact on you.

May 1 – Venus in Taurus Square Pluto in Aquarius at 2 degrees.  This could bring about embarrassing situations with loved ones.  You want an equal partnership, but someone is power mad.  Is it you?

May 2 – Pluto turns retrograde at 2 degrees of Aquarius.  In September, he will return to Capricorn on the 1st and turn direct on Oct 11 at 29 degrees.  He reenters Aquarius on Nov 19 and stays in Aquarius for 2 decades.  With Pluto back in Capricorn, some revelations about our government institutions with political secrets coming out may be exposed.  In Aquarius, Pluto will reveal what happens when the people rebel against these institutions and then express freedom at all costs.

May 7 – New Moon at 18 Taurus conjunct Uranus.  You could start something new that is both stable and potentially transformative. It's an excellent time for financial planning, embracing new technologies or methods, and redefining what security means to you.

May 12 – Mother’s Day, and the Moon is in Cancer, the sign of the mother.  It is a very motherly Mother’s Day.  Celebrate with good food and family.

Mars triggers the April 8 Total Solar Eclipse at 19 Aries. Mars can bring about action regarding the meaning of the Total Solar Eclipse. This will be noticeable if the eclipse impacts one of your planets.

May 13 – Sun Conjunct Uranus at 23 Taurus. This aspect could bring sudden changes in your values or finances. Significant fluctuations could occur in areas where you usually prefer stability. It’s time to embrace the new and unconventional.

May 15—Mercury enters Taurus until June 3. Mercury influences the way we think, communicate, and process information. This is a good time for planning and discussing long-term investments and taking a steady and practical approach to learning and communication. This period favors persistence in mental tasks.

May 17 – Mercury in Taurus Squares Pluto in Aquarius at 2 degrees. This aspect can lead to profound insights and breakthroughs.  It can also intensify mental processes, leading to obsessive or compulsive thinking, particularly about issues of control, power, and transformation. Communication can be intense and may involve power struggles or confrontations.

May 18 – Venus conjunct Uranus at 23 degrees of Taurus. During this aspect, you can suddenly be attracted to someone new or experience changes in your relationships.  Venus also relates to art and beauty, so this transit might lead you to discover new unconventional artistic styles or ways of decorating and enjoying the beauty that breaks tradition.

          Sun Conjunct Jupiter at 28 Taurus.  This favorable transit offers growth, prosperity, and a heightened enjoyment of life. Take advantage of the opportunities that come your way, particularly those that can enhance your material and physical well-being.  With all the expansive energy focused on pleasure and material gains, there's a risk of overdoing it—taking on too many projects, aiming too high, or taking on a job you are unprepared for.

May 20—The Sun Enters Gemini until June 20. This is a period of increased curiosity, communication, and versatility. Mercury rules Gemini, an air sign that governs thinking, communication, and information exchange. This transit often brings a more playful approach to daily interactions, making it a fun time for social activities and casual gatherings. It's an excellent time to connect with others and explore various interests with enthusiasm and curiosity.

May 22 – Sun in Gemini Trine Pluto in Aquarius at 2 degrees. This powerful and harmonious aspect blends Gemini's communicative and intellectual tendencies with Pluto's transformative and intense energies in Aquarius. This aspect tends to be quite positive, facilitating profound change and empowerment in natural and unforced ways.  Gemini's love for ideas and Aquarius’s innovation can combine to produce creative and transformative solutions to complex problems, especially those that impact larger groups or communities. 

May 23 – Full Moon at 2 Sagittarius sextile Pluto. This Full Moon illuminates themes of exploration, freedom, and the pursuit of truth. Sagittarius is concerned with higher learning, philosophy, and broadening one’s horizons. There may be a heightened ability to see the bigger picture or to connect the dots in ways that were not previously apparent.  The sextile to Pluto in Aquarius makes this an excellent time for embracing new insights, expanding your understanding and implementing transformative changes that have broad impacts.

             Venus Conjunct Jupiter at 29 degrees of Taurus.  Venus and Jupiter are two of the most beneficial planetary energies. They are known for enhancing prosperity, joy, and expansion, and now it’s within Taurus's stable and material realm. This conjunction is favorable in terms of finance and relationships. In relationships, this conjunction brings generosity, joy, and contentment. It's an excellent time to form new bounds that could be beneficial in the long run or meaningfully deepen existing relationships.  One caution with these two planets is that there's a risk of overdoing it—overspending, overeating, or indulging too much in physical pleasures.  As much as Gemini likes to talk, Taurus likes to eat.

 Venus enters Gemini on June 17. This period will bring a lively and curious energy to relationships, social interactions, and creative pursuits. Venus, the planet of love, beauty, and values, expresses itself quite differently in Gemini's airy, communicative sign than in other signs. Venus in Gemini stimulates creative expression through mediums that involve words and communication, like writing, speaking, or digital media. It's an excellent time for any creative work that requires a playful touch or innovative ideas. The focus is on intellectual and verbal connection, light-hearted encounters, and flexibility in romantic and financial pursuits.

May 25 – Jupiter Enters Gemini until June 9, 2025.  Jupiter is about expansion and abundance.  It brings enhanced communication.  There’s a risk of spreading oneself too thin or becoming overwhelmed with too many interests or commitments. It’s an excellent time to learn, explore new ideas, and expand your social circle.  This will be an excellent year for all Geminis or those with personal planets in Gemini. But don’t forget, Geminis don’t know what they think till they hear what they say.  The brain lags behind the mouth.  So when you communicate with a Gemini this year, give them time to get their wires uncrossed.

May 31 – Mercury Conjunct Uranus at 24 Taurus.  This alignment creates a fascinating blend of mental energy and innovative thinking within Taurus's typically stable and practical sign. Mercury and Uranus can also produce high-strung nervous energy, leading to anxiety or restlessness, especially if you're required to think or move more quickly than you're comfortable with. Taurus is a fixed sign and may resist the sudden changes that Uranus likes to introduce. This could result in tension between a desire to stick to the tried-and-true versus the need to innovate and adapt.  This conjunction can bring exciting intellectual stimulation and unexpected twists that challenge conventional thinking. It's an excellent time for innovative problem-solving and applying new technologies to enhance traditional processes. However, it also requires a balance to manage the disruptive energy and utilize it constructively without becoming overwhelmed by the pace of change. 

 

OUTER PLANET TRANSITS FOR THIS MONTH:

JUPITER will move from 24 to 29 degrees of Taurus until May 26 when he moves into Gemini.  Jupiter is the big, fat, happy guy who is expansive in everything. In Taurus, he wants to buy property, build up his bank account, and invest in growth stocks. Look to the house in your birth chart that contains Taurus. The time up to the 26^th can bring good luck and opportunities in the areas ruled by your natal Taurus house.

Jupiter Conjunct Uranus on April 20 at 21 Taurus

The energy from this conjunction started in mid-March and will last until mid-May.

This conjunction is the most significant aspect of the year. I call these two “get outa town planets’.  Jupiter and Uranus share a common desire for freedom and exploration. Jupiter wants to roam all over the globe to experience everything, and Uranus wants to break free and doesn’t like to stay in one place too long. Neither of them wants to be hemmed in. Jupiter rules long-distance travel, and Uranus rules space travel. Jupiter is an adventurer; Uranus is a maverick and loves breaking the rules.  As you can see, these two have a lot in common.  They both want to break from traditional confines and pursue uniqueness and individuality.

Jupiter expands every planet it touches.  So, in this aspect, he will amplify Uranus’ need to be different and to rebel.  Jupiter will add confidence to Uranus and help him express his uniqueness. Jupiter rules religion and our belief systems, and where we find meaning, Uranus can shatter those. This is shocking and unstable energy, but it can bring fresh, innovative ideas.

You will feel this impact and go on a wild ride if you are a Sagittarius or an Aquarius or have any planets at 19 to 23 degrees of Taurus or Scorpio. These are not hostile planets; they are youthful and fun if you can stay loose.  They don’t like boring people or situations. This conjunction can shake you out of what you have outgrown.  It’s time to step into the future and leave the old traditions and routines behind.  Look at the house in your birth chart that contains 21 degrees of Taurus. This is where you may feel restless for change and get a sudden opportunity.  See the meaning of the houses here.

This conjunction is in Taurus, so expect breakthroughs in money, banking, the stock market, farming, food, agriculture, gardening, land management, and real estate. Interestingly, most of the protests around the world are farmers' protests. Taurus represents the land; Taurus wants simple, organic food. Taurus rules the earth, and Uranus, amplified by Jupiter, shakes things up—look for more and stronger earthquakes.

Look for news about discoveries in space, science, scientific breakthroughs, the metaverse, and AI. This conjunction coincided with the Allies cracking the Enigma code in 1941, the Moon Landing in 1959, and the Icelandic volcano in 2020, which limited Aviation.

This conjunction signals the beginning of a new 13 to 14-year cycle, but it’s most important this year because Uranus rules Aquarius, and Pluto is powering up in Aquarius now. This can be considered the spark that triggers Pluto's energy in Aquarius, which is just now starting to heat up.

Pluto in Aquarius marks a time of socio-economic transformation heralding a period of “power to the people” and the potential for revolutionary changes in governance and societal structures over the next two decades. However, Pluto's influence also warns us of the challenges of centralized control, particularly concerning the media and the internet. Only six corporations own all the major TV stations and newspapers in the U.S., so unplug your TV and throw away your iPhone if you don't want to be manipulated.  Experience the freedom of thought and form your independent ideas and opinions. This can be a wonderful feeling and a perfect time to break free from the “thought police.” The lesson of Pluto in Aquarius is that, eventually, top-down control won’t work because the world is much too complicated. Instead, human beings will have the opportunity to create a sustainable world by working together on a local level.

In conclusion, the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction at 21 Taurus represents a powerful invitation to embrace change, seek innovation, and pursue freedom across various aspects of our personal and collective lives. We should look for individual and community changes in how we relate to the earth and technology.

April 2024 Forecast

Has anyone noticed the eerie similarity between the glyph for Libra, which housed the Lunar Eclipse of March 25, and the Francis Scott Key Bridge, which was eclipsed within 24 hours? Or have I been working with symbols too long?

                                        +++++++++++++

April is the most dynamic and transformative month in 2024.  And here’s why:

We are still experiencing the lingering effects of the Lunar Eclipse of March 25. A description of this eclipse is here.

The Total Solar Eclipse of April 8, 2024, is called the Great North American Eclipse. See a description of that eclipse here.

On the 21^st, we will experience the most significant aspect of the year, a dynamic conjunction of Jupiter and Uranus.                                                 

++++++++++++

Also, Mercury will turn retrograde this month on the 1^st in Aries.

 

Dates to Watch:

Note to my Astrology Clients. Use your Planetary Placement and Ascendant sheet to find if you have a personal planet (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, or Mars) or the ascendant within 2 degrees of the degree of the transits listed below.  If so, the transit will have a significant impact on you.

Apr 1 – Mercury turns retrograde at 27 Aries and lasts until April 25.  This is very appropriate for April Fool’s Day. Mercury is the trickster, and you never know what games he will play. When he is retrograde he could cause delays, misunderstandings and missed communications around travel and technology.  Because he is in Aries, think before you speak. It’s a time to rethink, revise, and redo, especially in the area of life ruled by the Aries house in your natal chart.

Apr 3 – Venus Conjunct Neptune at 27 degrees of Pisces.  Pisces is a dreamy sign and Neptune in that sign could lead to deeply romantic or spiritual experiences.  However, there is also a risk of disillusionment or escapism in relationships. If you fall in love, please don’t make any commitment.  Wait until after April 5 when Venus enters Aries.  Instead, channel this energy into artistic goals.

Apr 5 – Venus enters Aries and lasts until April 29.  Venus, the planet and love and attraction, is leaving Pisces the planet of dreams and enters the impulsive sign of Aries.  Relationships could become more direct and fiery.  It’s a time for bold expressions of affection.  But don’t scare away a potential partner.  Some people such, as Virgo or Pisces types, do not like to be pushed into a love fest too fast.

Apr 8 – New Moon Total Solar Eclipse at 19 Aries.  This is a powerful time to reinvent yourself, to try something new and to concentrate on your needs and wants.

Apr 10 – Mars Conjunct Saturn at 14 degrees of Pisces. Mars represents drive and Saturn represents discipline, so this could be a excellent day to work, except Pisces can lose the thread of what it was trying to do.  Focus on music, mysticism or Yoga.  Cooperate with the gods.

Apr 11 – Sun Conjunct Mercury at 22 degrees of Aries.  This will give you clarity of thought and your communications will be direct and assertive.  This is an excellent time for decisive actions.

Apr 19 – Mercury Conjunct Venus at 17 Aries.  This favors harmonious communication and creative expression making it a good time to socialize, negotiate and engage in artistic activities.

          Sun enters Taurus until April 19.  Taurus rules stability, peace and appreciation of beauty, nature and sensuality.  It’s a good period to focus on cultivating patience and enjoying the fruits of your labor.

Apr 20 – Jupiter Conjunct Uranus at 21 Taurus.  This is a rare conjunction that can bring unexpected opportunities or changes.  Finance, values and material security can be affected.  Check the house in your birth chart that contains 21 Taurus. This is the area of life that will be expanded and experience sudden breakthroughs.  The energy from this aspect will be felt from late March to mid-May.

Apr 21 – Sun Squares Pluto at 2 degrees of Taurus/Aquarius.  This could create power struggles and it may bring to light issues of control from you or from others to you.  This is a time to confront what needs to change.

Apr 23 – Full Moon at 4 Scorpio. This full moon will illuminate what’s hidden and reveal deeper truths.  It’s time to release what is no longer serving you.  This full moon could also bring emotional outbursts.  But be aware of powerful insights as a gift of Scorpio.

Apr 25 – Mercury turns direct on April 25 at 16 degrees of Aries. Mercury is resuming its forward motion, but wait a few weeks before you sign contracts or make commitments.  You can still change your mind, but it will be easier to move forward now.

Apr 29 – Venus enters Taurus until May 23^rd.  Venus is in his home sign of Taurus.  This describes the love of comfort, sensuality and pleasure.  Relationships and financial matters can experience increased stability and growth.

Apr 30 - Mars enters Aries until June 9. Mars is also in his home sign, boosting energy, courage and initiative.  It’s a good time to start new projects and tackle challenges head-on.  The downside is that you could become too impulsive and run into conflicts.  It all depends on your natal Mars house and sign.  Are you a hothead? This position of Mars won’t help.

 

OUTER PLANET TRANSITS FOR THIS MONTH:

JUPITER will move from 17 to 23 degrees of Taurus.  He will stay in Taurus until May 26, 2024.  Jupiter is the big, fat, happy guy who is expansive in everything. In Taurus, he wants to buy property, build up his bank account, and invest in growth stocks. Look to the house in your birth chart that contains Taurus. This coming year can bring good luck and opportunities in the areas ruled by your natal Taurus house.

SATURN is in Pisces until May 26, 2025. This month, Saturn moves from 18 to 19 degrees of Pisces.  Saturn rules your material world and especially your career.  If you have the ascendant or any personal planets anywhere from 16 to 21 degrees of Pisces or Virgo, you may be in store for some hard lessons about the issues in the house containing Pisces and or Virgo.  Pisces is a creative dreamer. While in Pisces, Saturn, he will try solidifying your dreams and fantasies.

URANUS is in Taurus until April 2026.  This month, he moves from 20 to 22 degrees. This is the time to break loose and radically change your life. I believe in ‘cooperating with the inevitable.’  If you have Uranus in a challenging aspect to your ascendant or personal planets (18 to 24 degrees of Taurus or Scorpio), go on an extended vacation, preferably somewhere you have never been. Or make some significant changes in your life. Taurus represents the earth. Expect news about farming, food, earthquakes, volcanos, tornadoes, or other major weather changes while Uranus is in Taurus. 

NEPTUNE is in Pisces until 2026.  Neptune will move from 27 to 28 degrees of Pisces this month.   If you have the ascendant or personal planets anywhere from 25 degrees of Pisces or Virgo to 0 degrees of Aries, you may lack focus during this time and want to daydream. Beware of a betrayal, a disappointment, and a sense of drifting. Neptune can also bring artistic, musical, and creative expression, increased dreams, and spiritual insights. Watch for inspired films to come out when Neptune is in Pisces.

PLUTO is in Capricorn until Nov 2024.  This month, Pluto will move from 1 to 2 degrees of Aquarius.  Pluto grinds away at our psyche, bringing up all sorts of difficult psychological issues. You should run to your nearest therapist, especially if you have the ascendant or personal planets anywhere from 29 degrees of Capricorn to 4 degrees of Aquarius.  Pluto asks what needs to die to be reborn.

Enjoy this month.

Total Solar Eclipse on April 8 at 19 Aries - The Great North American Eclipse

This is the second eclipse of the spring of 2024. Information about the first lunar eclipse, which occurred on March 25 at 5° Libra, can be found here.

Solar eclipses often bring unexpected incidents that interrupt our regular lives. They act as crises that seem to emerge out of the blue, demanding our undivided attention and concentration. Compared to Lunar Eclipses, Solar Eclipses significantly shake things up on both a physical and conscious level. This Solar eclipse is in Aries, the sign that rules war, confrontations, self-realization, spontaneous enthusiasm, initiative, and impatience.

A solar eclipse is a potent new moon, a prime time for planning and setting intentions. During this eclipse, focus on personal Aries themes—goal-setting, physical endeavors, and leadership—and embrace new beginnings in these areas. The following six months offer a golden opportunity to do so.

This total eclipse will be observable over the South Pacific Ocean and traverse North America. Its path includes Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine, concluding in Newfoundland and Labrador in Canada. This event is anticipated to be exceptionally notable as it will feature the longest duration of totality observed on land in more than ten years.

Concurrently with the Solar Eclipse, a comet will appear near the Sun, dubbed the 'Devil's Comet' due to its horn-like projections. For further details on this comet, see here

Historically, the Ancient Greeks saw eclipses as signs of divine displeasure, particularly directed at their rulers. To avert perceived divine wrath, they sometimes made human sacrifices. They also viewed comets as significant omens, indicating momentous events or signaling the advent of noteworthy figures.

Have I managed to terrify everyone, including myself? Let's consider a more balanced perspective. Eclipses symbolize transformation, while comets are messengers from beyond our solar system.

The only thing I understand about the symbol of the horns is that Aleister Crowley adopted a hand
gesture, extending the forefinger and little finger, to signify horns believing it possessed more power than the Swastika and could defeat the Nazis. Winston Churchill then adopted this symbol, interpreting it as representing "V for victory." Maybe the sign of the horns is coming in from outer space to defeat the bad guys.

In my consultation with clients, eclipses tend to awaken them to aspects of their lives they've ignored or underestimated. What has the United States been overlooking or concealing that will confront us during this eclipse or in the six months following April 8, 2024?

How Will This Aspect Affect You?

This Solar Eclipse in Aries holds particular significance for individuals with personal planets (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, and Mars) or the ascendant between 17 to 21 degrees of Aries. Examining your natal chart for the house encompassing 17 to 21 degrees of Aries could reveal the closure of certain situations and the commencement of new ones in that area of life. This area will require dedicated focus and energy until the next eclipse cycle in October 2024.

Eclipses tend to recur every 19 years. This Solar Eclipse echoes one from April 8, 2005, inviting reflection on the themes that were present then, as this eclipse will continue a theme that was playing out at that time.

Grasping the effects of eclipses involves understanding the archetypal energies of planets and the potential expression of these cosmic influences, shaped by personal consciousness and interaction with these energies.

Eclipses in the Spring of 2024

The first eclipse is a Lunar Eclipse on March 25 at 5 degrees of Libra. The second eclipse, on April 8, is a Total Solar Eclipse known as the Great North American Eclipse. Its path of totality will sweep across several US states, Mexico, and Canada. This celestial spectacle is significant enough to merit a dedicated report, which I plan to distribute next week.

In this report, I will cover the Lunar Eclipse on March 25 at 5 degrees of Libra.  A Lunar Eclipse is often associated with significant endings and beginnings, including the symbolic"fall of the mighty," as ancient beliefs suggest. This eclipse marks closure and renewal, potentially affecting lives for up to six months and beginning to influence events a month before its occurrence. It will be visible across a broad swath of the globe, including Antarctica, the western half of Africa and Australia, Western Europe, the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, the Americas, and Japan.

Eclipses in Libra are often interpreted as periods for shedding detrimental relationships and embracing new, more harmonious connections. These celestial events can also illuminate relationship dynamics on a global scale. The most recent eclipse in Libra occurred in October 2023, marking the beginning of the conflict between Israel and Palestine. Given that Libra symbolizes harmonious relationships, I hope the current eclipse will pave the way for resolving this crisis.

Lunar Eclipses offer a chance to break free from negative patterns of thought and behavior that hinder self-realization.  They Illuminate unconscious motivations and bring old memories and emotions to the surface.  During a Lunar Eclipse, the opposing forces of the Sun and Moon reveal hidden aspects of life, urging us to confront and resolve repressed energies. Such eclipses, being emotional, prompt a heightened awareness of previously unnoticed matters, encouraging attention to dreams and inner feelings.

The impact of an eclipse can be understood by examining one's planetary placements and ascendant. Eclipses challenge the status quo, potentially redirecting life's course toward renewal. If your birthday is near an eclipse, significant life changes can be expected in the ensuing months or years. The effects of an eclipse may unfold gradually, becoming apparent up to six months later.

The influence of a lunar eclipse is linked to the natal chart's houses it activates and the planets it aligns with.  It demands focus and energy in the affected life areas until the next eclipse cycle. These cosmic events are growth opportunities, shedding light on areas requiring attention.

The upcoming lunar eclipse in Libra will be especially significant for those with personal planets (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, and Mars) or the ascendant between 3 to 7 degrees of Libra or Aries. It invites reflection on relationship dynamics.

Understanding the effects of eclipses involves recognizing the archetypal energies of planets and the expressive potential of these cosmic influences, ultimately determined by personal consciousness and engagement with these energies.

The Lunar Eclipse of March 25 at 5 degrees of Libra will affect you if you have personal planets (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, and/or Mars) or the ascendant at 3 to 7 degrees of Libra or Aries.  Also, look at your natal chart for the two houses that hold 3 to 7 degrees of Libra or Aries. This eclipse will stir up events related to those houses. Where is there disharmony in your relationships?  Do you give too much of yourself by being a peacemaker? How can you learn to be more decisive?

January 2024 Forecast

Happy New Year!  Janus is the Roman god of beginnings and endings.  He looked to the past and the future.  So, looking into the future……

The first four months of 2024 will bring dynamic challenges.  Starting in May, things will quiet down a bit.  Here are a few trends to watch for in 2024.

In 2024, planets will bunch up in Aquarius in February, Pisces in March, and Aries in April.   This brings intense energy to that area of the sky. Aquarius could signify protests; in Pisces, confusion and fake news; and in Aires, maybe fires or military action. The signs of Aquarius, Pisces, and Aries will be affected.  Read my monthly newsletters for those months for more exact information.

Pluto spends most of the year, up to September, in Aquarius.  This may give us a taste of what Pluto will bring starting Nov 19, 2024, and for the next 20 years. Aquarius rules humanity, so it is our turn to wield the power.  How will we do?  The last time Pluto was in Aquarius was during the French and American Revolutions. 

For a brief look at each month of 2024,  check out my blog here.

Dates to Watch

Note to my Astrology Clients. Use your Planetary Placement and Ascendant sheet to find if you have a personal planet (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, or Mars) or the ascendant within 2 degrees of the degree of the transits listed below.  If so, the transit will have a major impact on you.

Jan 1 – Venus Square Saturn at 3 degrees of Sagittarius/Pisces. Others may try to put you down today with cutting remarks.  Ignore them.  Instead, remain calm.  Focus on beautifying your home.  You may have some interesting ideas about how to spruce up your environment.

          Mercury turns direct at 22 Sagittarius. Jupiter also moved direct on Dec 30.  The direct movement of both of these planets will help us feel unstuck.  We can plan travel and education; new important ideas could come this month.

Jan 4 – Mars enters Capricorn until Feb 13. Mars is exalted in Capricorn, meaning he won’t fly off the handle now but will work slowly and patiently on career objectives.  This is a good time to work on practical issues such as landscaping or your home. The energy is very disciplined, reliable, patient, and persistent.  Use this time to accomplish something real.

Jan 8 – Mercury Square Neptune at 25 degrees of Sagittarius/Pisces. You may feel like daydreaming.   You don’t want to focus on anything or engage in any effort.  Listen to a novel from an audible book and do the couch potato thing.  You have my permission.

Jan 9 – Sun Trine Uranus at 19 Capricorn/Taurus.  It’s time to wake up.  You don’t want to miss this energy.  It’s all about fun, entertainment, social groups.  I like that both the Sun and Uranus are in Earth signs.  Earth will keep you grounded, and your fun will not be too wild or crazy.

Jan 11 – New Moon at 20 Capricorn. Capricorn rules structures in society, ambition, professional goals, and authority figures.  A New Moon can bring fresh starts in these areas.  Do an intention at this new moon on what you want to accomplish this year regarding your career goals.

Jan 12 – Mars Trine Jupiter at 5 Capricorn/Taurus. I think the best aspects we can experience are trines in Earth signs. This is a time to take action and make progress.  It’s an excellent aspect of travel, education, and creating abundance.

Jan 13 – Mercury enters Capricorn until Feb 5.  This placement suits Mercury since Capricorn rules sober, methodical, and logical thinking.  You may find it easier to concentrate.  You could be very realistic and serious now without your usual delusions.

Jan 19 – Mercury Trine Jupiter at 6 degrees of Capricorn/Taurus.  Another Earth trine. Mercury brings in the mind and communications.  You could enjoy intellectual pastimes such as crossword puzzles, playing trivia, or having stimulating conversations.

          Venus Square Neptune at 25 Sagittarius/Pisces. Aphrodite conflicts with Orpheus.  They are both easy-going, loving archetypes. Be careful on this one; don’t let others push you around. Being timid gets you nowhere.  Speak up.

Jan 20 and 21 – Two powerful days as the Sun will conjunct Pluto at 29 Capricorn and almost immediately go into Aquarius, and a day later, Pluto goes into Aquarius.  Events at this time could be important portents of what happens the rest of the year.

          Pluto enters Aquarius, turns retrograde on May 2, backs into Capricorn on Sep 3, Turns direct on Oct 12, enters Aquarius on Nov 19, and stays in Aquarius until 2043.   In Capricorn, Pluto is finishing up its task of upending and revolutionizing major corporations, governments, and banking.  Also, the US has its natal Pluto at 27 degrees of Capricorn.  So, we have not finished our transformation yet.  Aquarius rules humanity, and when it finally settles in Aquarius, we can see a general revolution in technology and society.

          Jan 23 – Venus enters Capricorn until Feb 16.  This is a good placement for enduring love.  You now want your relationships to be lasting, reliable, and faithful.

Jan 25 – Full Moon at 5 Leo.  Since Venus also rules beauty and Capricorn rules architecture.  This is a good time to build something beautiful or decorate a home or building.

Jan 27 – Uranus turns direct at 19 Taurus.  The big disrupter is stopping in the sky and slowly turning around.  Nineteen degrees of Taurus will dominate the sky during this month.  He can bring sudden change in real estate matters, food distribution, and farming.  At a personal level, you could finally declutter and let go of all of that stuff stored in the attic and garage.

          Sun Square Jupiter at 6 Aquarius/Taurus.  Both of these signs resist change.  There could be a stalemate in your life today. Maybe some personal problems intrude on your home life today. Use self-control, and be Buddha-like.

          Mercury conjunct Mars at 16 Capricorn.  You are mentally stimulated and want to express yourself verbally or on paper.  Watch out for impulsive speech.  Stay off of social media.  You could conflict with someone, or this aspect could kick you into moving forward with your plans.  If you have not even started your New Year’s resolutions, this could get you started.

Jan 28 – Mercury Trine Uranus at 19 Capricorn/Taurus.  Another Earth trine, I am highlighting these trines because the earth represents stability, and trines represent energies flowing together.  On this one, you become versatile and can come up with some out-of-the-box ideas for your writing or profession.

          Venus is trine to Jupiter at 6 Capricorn/Taurus.  This will be a positive month, especially during the second half.  You could receive special treatment today and maybe a gift from someone.

Jan 29 – Mars Trine Uranus at 19 Capricorn/Taurus.  You may meet up with someone who has a very positive effect on your life.  Also, your thoughts on the future can contain some revolutionary ideas.

 

OUTER PLANET TRANSITS FOR THIS MONTH:

JUPITER has just moved direct and will move from 5 to 7 degrees of Taurus.  He will stay in Taurus until May 26, 2024.  Jupiter is the big, fat, happy guy who is expansive in everything. In Taurus, he wants to buy property, build up his bank account, and invest in growth stocks. Look to the house in your birth chart that contains Taurus. This coming year can bring good luck and opportunities in the areas ruled by your natal Taurus house.

SATURN is in Pisces until May 26, 2025. This month, Saturn moves from 3 to 6 degrees of Pisces.  Saturn rules your material world and especially your career.  If you have the ascendant or any personal planets anywhere from 3 to 6 degrees of Pisces,  you may be in store for some hard lessons about the issues in the house containing Pisces.  Pisces is a creative dreamer. While in Pisces, Saturn, he will try solidifying your dreams and fantasies.

URANUS is in Taurus until April 2026. This month, he is moving retrograde until January 27.  This month, he will stay at 19 degrees of Taurus.  This is the time to break loose and radically change your life. I believe in ‘cooperating with the inevitable.’  If you have Uranus in a challenging aspect to your ascendant or personal planets (17 to 21 degrees of Taurus or Scorpio), go on a long vacation, preferably somewhere you have never been. Or make some major changes in your life. Taurus represents the earth. Expect news about farming, food, earthquakes, volcanos, tornadoes, or other major weather changes while Uranus is in Taurus. 

NEPTUNE is in Pisces until 2026.  Neptune has just turned direct and will stay at 25 degrees of Pisces all month.  If you have the ascendant or personal planets anywhere from 23 to 27 degrees of Pisces, you may lack focus during this time and want to daydream. Beware of a betrayal, a disappointment, and a sense of drifting. Neptune can also bring artistic, musical, and creative expression, increased dreams, and spiritual insights for the rest of us. Watch for inspired films to come out when Neptune is in Pisces.

PLUTO is in Capricorn until Nov 2024.  This month, Pluto will move from 29 degrees Capricorn to 0 degrees Aquarius.  Pluto grinds away at our psyche, bringing up all sorts of difficult psychological issues. You should run to your nearest therapist, especially if you have the ascendant or personal planets anywhere from 27 Capricorn to 2 degrees of Aquarius.  Pluto asks what needs to die to be reborn.

Enjoy this month.

2024 Overview

The following are the most critical and pivotal times in 2024.

January  On the 20^th, The Sun will conjunct Pluto at 29 degrees of Capricorn, and then less than an hour later, the Sun will enter Aquarius, and on the 21^st, Pluto will enter Aquarius.  There will be some sudden extreme feelings and events for this short period. Russia's birth chart shows Pluto at 29 degrees of Capricorn.  These events could have some serious implications for Russia.

February from the 14^th to the 22^nd. Venus and Mars on Pluto could resolve relationships and a critical time.  At the end of February, with the Sun, Mercury, and Saturn in aspect, it’s time to make rational decisions.  We feel detached.

March is relatively quiet.

April is the most dynamic month of the year.

There is a Total Solar Eclipse on April 8^th at 19 Aries.  This eclipse will affect North America. It will start in Mexico, travel through Texas, the Mid-West and New England, and terminate in Canada.   This is a supercharged event.  Because the eclipse is in Aries, It could bring conflict or battles anytime during the six months following this eclipse.

Jupiter will conjunct Uranus during the 3^rd and fourth week of April. It is on April 20 at 21 degrees Taurus. This is a once every-14 years transit.  This could bring dynamic change. The planet of technology, genius, and inspiration gets magnified by Jupiter, the planet of abundance and expansion.  This aspect will impact the birth charts of both Israel and Palestine. The conflict in the Middle East could reach a culmination.  And we could be surprised by how it works out.  The outcome could be positive since there is a sextile from Mars to Jupiter and Aquarius.

In May, Jupiter enters Gemini on May 25 for one year.  During the year, Jupiter will bring luck, opportunities, and expansion to Geminis and the house in your natal chart containing Gemini.  Jupiter will trine Pluto in Aquarius in May, bringing in innovations in communications.  Watch for more expansion of A.I.  I like this transit in air signs of Gemini and Aquarius, both signs ruling freedom of the mind.

The first few days of June will feature the Sun conjunct, Mercury conjunct Jupiter, and trine Pluto.  This energy could bring a lot of fresh starts.  Mid-June brings Venus and Mercury in a square to Neptune with some false narratives floating around.

July is mainly quiet, with a breakthrough aspect of Mars conjunct Uranus on the 22^nd and 23^rd, and the Sun Opposite Pluto and Mars Trine Pluto shows a breakthrough.

August features a T-square between Mars,  Jupiter, Venus and Saturn.  This can bring global financial changes.  Jupiter is in a square to Saturn through March 2025.  This is a long-term global financial restructuring.

September is a Neptunian month, with the Sun and Mercury challenging Neptune. Things are not what they seem. At the end of September, for five days through the first few days of October, we have a Grand Trine with Mars in Cancer, Venus in Scorpio, and Saturn in Pisces.  This is excellent, so look at the 30^th of September to the 4th of October for balance and harmony in relationships and finances.

October is quiet after the 4^th.

Despite Mars opposing Neptune, November is quiet except for hype, spin, and false promises.  But a breakthrough to the truth could happen on the 17^th and 18th with the Sun opposite Uranus and Mercury opposite Jupiter, and events could get out of control.

In December, the Sun is conjunct Mercury retrograde on the 7th and opposite Jupiter.  On the 12th, Venus will oppose Mars.  This month could see some conflicts among friends.

 2024 is setting up the major changes that will happen in 2025 and 2026. All outer planets will move from Water and Earth into Air and Fire signs.  Water signs are emotional signs; Earth signs are practical material signs.  Fire signs are spiritual, and Air signs are mental. Pluto moves into Aquarius this year.  Saturn and Neptune move into Aries in 2025, Uranus enters Gemini in 2026, and Jupiter enters Leo in 2026. This has never happened before.  It will be the biggest time of concentrated change in our history.  Because the planets will be in the signs of Air and Fire, it could mean a shift in consciousness.  2024 is the build-up to these incredible years.
