The three S’s…Saturn, static and startling! There will be a Full Moon at 11°45’ Aquarius (antiscion 18°15’ Scorpio) which will form a separating Fixed modality T-square with transiting Uranus in Taurus, modern ruler of the Moon. Fixed energy is static yet by nature both the Moon and Uranus are volatile planets so we might expect some shocks as the energy tries to free itself. The main concern with the strong Uranian energy in this chart may be the research and discovery of new forms of social service or innovative and creative technologies which will help us to develop more [...]
Another chapter of the never-ending story The New Moon will occur at 28°26’ Cancer (antiscion 1°34° Gemini) in a partile opposition to retrograde Saturn in Capricorn. This is the second New Moon in Cancer this season, these “double New Moons” occur approximately every 29 months or so and are also called “Black Moons” by some astrologers. Both the Moon and Saturn are in their own sign and thus strong but each in the detriment of the other…working together to find a compromise could end up badly since they seem to be partners in crime rather than strong planets aimed at [...]
Thoughts, plans and emotions should now be disentangled Mercury stations direct on 12th July at 5°29’ Cancer (antiscion 24°31’ Gemini). Cancer, being a Water sign, is all about feelings and emotions and, being ruled by the Moon, how these fluctuate in time. Mercury is a little out of sync in Cancer, finding some minor dignity only between 10-20° of the sign. Being a Water sign, Cancer is far too emotional for “all-in-my-head” Mercury. Retrograde planets seemingly interfere with the normal ongoing flow of activities represented by that planet in the outer world. This [...]
It’s a repeating theme…. This is the last of this year’s Summer eclipses and will be visible from South/West Europe, much of Africa, much of North America, South America, Pacific, Atlantic, Indian Ocean, Antarctica* see link in the bibliography. The OOB Moon is in its detriment at 13°37’ Capricorn (antiscion 16°23’ Sagittarius) with its retrograde ruler Saturn just having re-entered the sign. The Sun is at 13°37’ Cancer in the sign of the Moon and is separating from retrograde Mercury, both planets oppose by sign, but not by degree, the stellium of planets in Capricorn [...]
