Everything's About to Start Happening
Happy Spring Equinox y’all ~
Is anybody else having a hard time getting started? Today’s the first day of the Astrological New Year - but we’re still in the Dark of the Moon. That’s the last couple of days before the Moon turns new again each month, and they’re typically sluggish and slow. Add Mercury, Mars, and Saturn all Retrograde - and things aren’t...

Jupiter Direct
23 December 2011
Jupiter will return to forward motion on Christmas Sunday afternoon (2:09 pm pacific daylight time).
Jupiter’s my favorite planet. When Jupiter’s going right it can feel just like Santa Claus.
That’s some rad synchronicity, right?
Happy Christmas, y’all.

Since it's Thursday, let's talk about Jupiter
22 December 2011
Jupiter represents expansion.
It’s big and buoyant and generous and ready for anything. Jupiter brings growth to the planets and points it touches. That can mean luck but also just exaggeration.
Jupiter is always optimistic.
The glyph for Jupiter is the crescent of spirit over the cross of matter:
Jupiter rules Sagittarius, the 9th sign, and the 9th House,...

Capricorn the Sea Goat
21 December 2011
The SUN enters CAPRICORN tonight at 9:30 pm (pacific standard time).
Capricorn is the Cardinal Earth sign. It’s ambitious and conservative and it likes results. Ruled by Saturn, Capricorn is sober and serious - but it also has a wonderfully sarcastic side. Capricorns can be some of the funniest people you know.
Capricorn rules the 10th House - the house of...

Venus in Aquarius
20 December 2011
VENUS moves into AQUARIUS this morning/early afternoon (at 10:26 am pacific standard time, 1:26 pm on the East coast).
Venus is values, it’s what we’re attracted to. Aquarius is the Fixed Air sign, it needs its freedom and its individuality. Venus in Aquarius likes things a little weird.
Venus is moving faster than the Sun right now, and has only been in...

Horoscopes for December 19-25, 2011
NEW MOON ON MONDAY ASTROLOGY
By Adeline Leigh
GENERAL FORECAST:
The days are about to start growing longer again. The Sun’s entrance into Capricorn each year marks the Winter Solstice, and the Sun enters Capricorn on Wednesday night, just as Venus departs the sign for Aquarius. Both the Sun and Venus will be making all sorts of contact with the outer planets throughout the week, so expect...

Venus Square Saturn
16 December 2011
Venus in Capricorn will be making an exact square to Saturn in Libra early Sunday morning (at 6:18 am pacific standard time).
That’s weekend weather that can put the full brakes on the love and the romance stuff. But here’s the good news:
Venus and Saturn are currently doing something called “Mutual Reception”. That means that Venus is in...

Leo vs. Sagittarius
‘
14 December 2011
Here’s Keef and Mick.
Mick’s a Leo, Keith’s a Sagittarius. Leo and Sagittarius are both Fire signs, and Fire has everything to do with rock and roll.
Fire signs are passionate. They’re creative and warm and generous and spirited. They can be self-centered, they’ve got spark, they’re, you know… fiery.
Leo’s the...

Mercury Direct!
13 December 2011
Mercury will station DIRECT (ie. return to apparent forward motion) this evening at 5:43 pm (pacific standard time).
Chances are, the past three weeks have left you with some messes to untangle. Look for almost everything to be resolved by the end of the year, when Mercury gets past its shadow phase.
In the meantime, the weather up there is giving us some space to go...

NEW MOON ON MONDAY ASTROLOGY
By Adeline Leigh
GENERAL FORECAST:
Mercury comes out of retrograde tomorrow evening (at 5:43 pm pacific daylight time, 8:43 pm on the East Coast). Remember: Mercury gets up to its trickiest business during the time it’s switching direction. Keep taking your time with things for the rest of the week and you’ll likely have all the space and energy you need...

Weird Weather.
9 December 2011
The Full Moon in Gemini happens early tomorrow morning (6:36 am pacific daylight time). Everybody knows about Full Moons - they happen every month, they’re the height of the action. This one’s also a Lunar Eclipse - so it’s got some added weirdness. We go through Eclipse Season twice a year. Eclipse Season can kind of feel like a dream - you’re moving...

Since it's Wednesday, let's talk about Mercury
7 December 2011
Mercury is the messenger. That’s a role that can take lots of forms: journalists, postmen, bike messengers, anyone with information is a Mercury figure.
Mercury is asexual, it is not completely feminine or masculine. The astrological glyph for Mercury is just like Venus, with a hat:
Mercury rules the 3rd House of Communication. The 3rd House is also where you...

So, How's Your Mercury Retrograde Going?...
5 December 2011
Certain neighborhoods in Los Angeles were without power for over three days last week. How Mercury Retrograde is that? I’ve heard about flat tires, keys locked in the car, cell phones showing the wrong time and even bad brakes, the usual stuff.
I keep getting dates and words mixed up and time is slipping through my fingers like sand. Oh and the craziest, most detailed...

NEW MOON ON MONDAY ASTROLOGY
By Adeline Leigh
GENERAL FORECAST:
This morning’s trine between Venus and Mars in sensual Earth signs is still bringing out the sexual tension. Who’s feeling it? The rest of the week is a build up to the planet Uranus’s return to forward motion at the first degree of Aries Thursday night, which is almost immediately followed by the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in...

Venus Trine Mars
4 December 2011
Venus is totally flirting with Mars. A trine between the two will be exact tomorrow morning (7:08 am pacific standard time).
A trine means the planets are working with each other. When that trine’s between Venus and Mars it opens up the flow of relationships, things heat up with the love stuff, and even with the stuff that’s not so much like love. Everywhere...

Stormy Weather
3 December 2011
The Moon gets to Aries this evening, but there’s already some aggression in the air. With the Sun still within range of its square to Mars and Mercury’s on the way tomorrow afternoon - the tension’s been building since the weekend began. Add the static from Mercury Retrograde in Sagittarius and one long Moon Void in the fog of Pisces and you get more...

Moon Void Ahead
2 December 2011
The Moon in Pisces will be going VOID this morning at 10:06 am (pacific standard time) until tomorrow evening at 5:51 pm (pst).
That’s an almost 32 hour stretch of Moon Void - and Mercury is Retrograde.
This is weather where things don’t go as planned. It’s way too easy to get lost in the fog, details disappear, fundamentals get forgotten.
Take...

The Sun and Mercury Square Mars
1 December 2011
The Sun will square Mars early tomorrow morning (at 5:08 am pacific daylight time), and Mercury will do the same on Sunday afternoon (3:19 pm pst).
Squares are challenges, they’re like getting cornered. But they can also be the very best of opportunities. Squares force changes, and lots of the time those changes are exactly what is right.
Squares are considered...

Venus conjunct Pluto
30 November 2011
Venus runs smack into Pluto in Capricorn early tomorrow morning (5:50 am pacific standard time).
This meeting typically happens about once a year, depending on how fast Venus is going, and she’s been steadily speeding up for a few months now. The last time this conjunction happened was in late February of 2011 - but it won’t happen again until early 2013.
Venus...

Since it's Tuesday, let's talk about Mars...
If you think of the planets as archetypes, as characters in a movie or a play - Mars is the macho guy. He’s the strong buff warrior, he’s male to the max. The universal symbol for “man” is the same as the glyph for Mars:
Mars rules Aries, the first sign, and the 1st House of Self. Mars is me me me. Mars knows what it wants and sets out to get it. Mars is energy...

Horoscopes for November 28 – December 4, 2011
NEW MOON ON MONDAY ASTROLOGY by Adeline Leigh
GENERAL FORECAST: Things remain intense out there, thanks to Venus hooking up with Pluto in Capricorn midweek. That’s a combination that can spell jealousy, powerful flings, and old lovers coming back from the dead. Venus and Pluto hook up like this about once a year, bringing significant shifts to the plot – especially where relationships are...

Venus in Capricorn
26 November 2011
VENUS moved into CAPRICORN at 4:36 am (pacific standard time).
Venus is attraction. It’s what we value. Capricorn is ambition, getting ahead, doing whatever work it takes to keep up with the Jones’s. Venus in Capricorn wants her status.
Venus has been in Sagittarius, the sign that’s all about adventure, for a short three weeks. That gave us the taste...

New Moon on Thanksgiving
24 November 2011
Happy Thanksgiving!
Hang in there y’all. With Mercury freshly Retrograde and the Dark of the Moon (never mind the Dark Moon before an eclipse!) there are plenty of things that might not be going as planned. Make the best of what does come along, and you’ll likely end up having better than fun. It’s also completely ok to keep it as simple as possible....

Everything's Goin' On . . . (Mercury Retrograde...
22 November 2011
The next 24 Hours are full of action from the sky.
In plain English: everybody wants to assert their independence right now. Ideas, inspiration, opportunities are popping up all over the place and everybody wants to make it happen NOW. The people who take that enthusiasm and work with it carefully, and methodically - the ones who stay the most realistic and ambitious...

Sagittarius the Archer
22 November 2011
The SUN moves into SAGITTARIUS at 8:08 am (pacific standard time).
Sagittarius is the Mutable Fire sign. Sagittarius is all about adventure and experience and exploring and the great outdoors. Sagittarius is one of the most independent, freedom loving, freewheelin’ signs of the zodiac. Ruled by Jupiter, Sagittarius wants to be everywhere. It’s associated with...

And… Here’s where everything really speeds up. Get ready for the week that just keeps going and going. Stuff gets started tomorrow morning with the Sun’s move into Sagittarius. Venus and Mercury have already been in the mutable fire sign for the past couple of weeks, but this marks the true beginning of Sagittarius season. The Sun...

Sun Square Neptune
18 November 2011
The Sun Squares Neptune this Sunday afternoon at 12:44 pm (pacific daylight time).
That’s daydream weather, and it’s already beginning. Watch for everybody to have their heads up in the clouds all weekend long. This could clash with the Moon and Mars in Virgo - energy that’s way more specific. Try to pin your details down before you get too lost up...

Mars Trine Jupiter
16 November 2011
The planet Mars (in Virgo) will make a trine to Jupiter (in Taurus) at 2:08 pm (pacific daylight time).
At it’s very best, that’s the energy of Mars enabling the luck of Jupiter to flow. This is gumption weather - people are energized toward the things that they most believe in and ready to do whatever it takes. Because it’s taking place between earth...
