Jupiter Retrograde

The expression of a planet is particularly strong when it is stationary and preparing to change direction. Jupiter is stationary opposite Pluto, the planet of endings and beginnings. The desire for expansion is being opposed by the death/rebirth process. Pluto is allied with Osiris, the Lord of Regeneration, and Horus is his son. Horus is born through death; his father is killed and brought back to life by his consort Isis, who uses her magic to reanimate Osiris and unite wit

Mercury Retrograde

Mercury is associated with thought, memory, and communication. The ancient Romans considered Mercury (Hermes to the Greeks) to be the messenger to the gods. He was depicted as a young man with wings on his heels and on his helmet. Mercury was able to transport himself from one locality to another in an instant. To the Egyptians, he is Thoth, Creator of Language, Writing, and Time. Thoth is the creator of third dimensional reality and, as we develop as a species, he will help

Uranus retrogrades into Taurus

In traditional astrology, Uranus is the Great Awakener, associated with sudden, unpredictable change. In the Egyptian pantheon, Uranus is allied with Wadjet, the Cobra Kundalini goddess, also called the Great Awakener. Wadjet breaks through blocks to the free flow of life force energy. If you have experienced a kundalini awakening, you have met the Lady Wadjet. If you work with the tarot, this is The Tower card. A building collapses, throwing people to their deaths below. Ura

Taurus Full Moon

The last six months have been dominated by an “Easy Trine” involving Uranus, Neptune/ Saturn, and Pluto. At this Full Moon, Mars has stepped into the equation through a second Easy Trine with Pluto and Saturn/Neptune and a Grand Trine with Saturn/Neptune and Jupiter (a Kite). That’s a lot of flowing energy - movement that is consequential and hugely transformative. ...

Sun in Scorpio

Scorpio natives are passionate, intense, and naturally intuitive. They are born with a built-in bullshit detector. These are the detectives of the Zodiac, diving deep to discover the truth. In relationships, they long to escape the confinement of their own body and merge with the desired one; hence the association of this water sign with sexuality. While Scorpio is comfortable in the underworld realms, hidden in their shadow are wounds that make it difficult to trust. Fear of

Neptune Retrogrades into Pisces

The water sign Pisces is ruled by Neptune, and this sign and ruling planet are like two peas in a pod. Both are associated with higher spirituality, intuition, inspiration, and also confusion and delusion. Neptune in Pisces has brought plenty of all. Neptune is now moving into Aries; a transition happening in stages. This present movement back into Pisces is a revisit for Neptune, and it is important. ...

Libra New Moon

A Grand Cross describes a balance of power that can become a stalemate, and a New Moon prominent in a Grand Cross suggests that this pattern is going to be at the forefront of our collective attention over the next month. This Grand Cross holds an element of danger. Pluto - Lord of the Underworld, God of Death and Rebirth - is newly direct. Jupiter opposite Pluto suggests that the conflict is going to heighten and expand. ...

Aries Full Moon

This is the first Full Moon after the eclipse portal, the beginning of a new phase of experience. The freedom to experience newness – new places, people, expressions - is prized by Aries. Relationships require negotiation which confines personal freedom. Aries does not like compromise; Libra cannot exist without it. How can one be truly oneself and also be in relationship with others? ...

Sun Enters Libra & The Equinox

The Equinoxes are both a moment of balance between opposites and also the commencement of a transition. On the Wheel of the Zodiac, the movement from Pisces to Aries (March) describes the birth of the individual out of the primordial sea. The transition from Virgo to Libra (September) refers to the desire of the fully formed individual for relationship with another. ...

New Moon Solar Eclipse

To speak a bit of astrologese: The eclipse point is opposite to the on-going Saturn/Neptune conjunction. It forms a conjunction to Mercury in Libra, and the three together (Sun/Moon/Mercury) form a Grand Trine with Pluto and Uranus, and a Kite pattern with Saturn/Neptune. There are two Yode formations – one with Mars in a Yode with Uranus and Saturn/Neptune – the other with Venus in a Yode with Pluto and Neptune. Mars is also part of a loose Grand Cross with Pluto, Eris/Chir

Uranus Retrograde and a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse

This weekend we are moving into an eclipse portal with a Pisces Full Moon Lunar Eclipse. In two weeks – September 21 – we will exit the portal with a Virgo New Moon Solar Eclipse. Eclipses always come in pairs – sometimes three – and describe a transition from one phase of experience to another. ...

Sun in Virgo

Virgo is the last of the six signs of the Zodiac that describe the growth of the individual. Aries desires to exist, Taurus grounds that desire in physical form, Gemini thinks about it, Cancer integrates these three phases, with the result being Leo - a whole and complete individual. Then Virgo – ever the perfectionist – cleans up the loose ends. A realignment here, a fluff up there, and – presto! – we have a being ready to enter into a relationship with another (Libra). ...

Mercury retrograde is the most recognized of all the astrological transits. Missed connections, misunderstandings, delays, and breakdowns abound during Mercury retrograde periods. If you have points in your chart directly affected by a Mercury retrograde period, you’re definitely going to notice. If this is all you notice, however, you’re missing the opportunity. ...

Aquarius Full Moon

Full Moons tend to come with an emotional crescendo and this one is no exception. It features two very powerful planetary patterns. First, a Kite (a Grand Trine with a spine down the middle). This formation describes a cooperative flow between the relevant players. Noted astrologer Monte Farber calls this the Bad Boy Trine – three very powerful archetypes working together - for ill or for good. They are Mars (Set) – the Warrior, Uranus (Wadjet) – the Shatterer, and Pluto (Osi

Chiron Retrograde

Chiron is something of an odd duck. In 1977 astronomers discovered a small object between the orbits of Saturn and Uranus. Astronomers could not agree on exactly what this object was. An asteroid? A comet caught in solar orbit? Other such objects were discovered and a new category of solar system objects was created called Centaurs – small bodies similar to asteroids in size but with the composition of a comet. Half asteroid; half comet. ...

Leo New Moon

There is a symbiotic relationship between the Moon and Mercury. The Moon is about emotions; Mercury is about thoughts. Emotions affect our thinking. Our thoughts affect our emotions. These two parts of our being interrelate and merge within us – so much so that it is hard to separate them. Mercury retrograde in Leo invites us to examine the state of our personal ego: How do we regard ourselves? What is our level of self-esteem? What is our self-talk? ...

Sun in Leo

In Shamanic Egyptian Astrology, the fire sign Leo is aligned with Anubis in his youth. Anubis is the son of Nephthys; her husband is Set, the Warrior King. His father is Osiris, husband to Isis (Nephthys’ twin sister) and brother to Set. The conception of Anubis is the result of a deception; Osiris believes he is making love to his wife, when really his lover is her ...

Mercury Retrograde

This Mercury retrograde period is in Leo; the sign associated with individual expression. Leo is the sign of the ego – our sense of personal sovereignty and self-esteem. A healthy ego is a good thing; we need self-esteem in order to direct our lives in the way we want. An overdeveloped ego can be problematic; we can experience difficulties in our relationships. In Shamanic Egyptian Astrology, Leo is allied with Anubis in his expression as the abandoned child. In order to fulf
