NEPTUNE STATIONS DIRECT IN PISCES The fog will lift… Neptune turns direct on the 1 December at 20°24’ Pisces (antiscion 9°36’ Libra). This means that uncertainties or lack of clarity that you have been internalizing and that may have surfaced from the past, finally starts to lift as the fog clears (look to the house where you have Pisces on the cusp to see where the fogginess may have been manifesting for you as well as the sign/house/aspects of your natal Neptune). Neptune transiting through the houses has the effect of “dissolving” the matters concerning that particular [...]
MERCURY ENTERS THE SIGN OF SAGITTARIUS During its stay in Sagittarius, Mercury will become OOB on 3rd December (GMT) at 12°59’ Sagittarius returning in bound on the 28th December at 23°16 Capricorn. Mercury, ruler of Gemini (collects information about whatever, whenever it can) and Virgo (only interested in information that can be used in a practical way) enters the sign of its detriment. Mercury in the sign of the archer has the tendency to overlook and discard generalised information (Gemini) and practical details (Virgo) placing attention on the bigger picture and thus [...]
LUNAR ECLIPSE IN TAURUS Another difficult lunation with the added oomph of being a Lunar Eclipse. The Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse will occur at 27°14’ Taurus (antiscion 2°46’ Leo). The last lunar eclipse at 28° Taurus took place on the 28th November 2002. Can you remember what was happening in your inner and/or outer life then? Again, another lunation chart with a huge emphasis on the Fixed modality (7 planets) and no Fire element and little Air. Stubborn, a good mix between practical and empathic but with little care for the “what next” and no intuition and energy to get [...]
MERCURY ENTERS SCORPIO the great revealer…. Just 12 hours after Venus enters Capricorn, Mercury also makes a move. A lot of secrets could come out when Mercury transits the enigmatic sign of Scorpio. Mainly because Mercury in Scorpio is a great detective, uncovering things that some or most of us would rather pull the carpet over. Mercury might also go overboard in insults when and if perceiving wrong-doing and ideas and thoughts could get very fixed and obsessive too. On the plus side with this transit…nothing, absolutely nothing, will be taboo (conversation-wise)! Some [...]
VENUS OOB ENTERS CAPRICORN From frivolous and gaudy to self-possessed and distinct. Social propriety and etiquette, at least on a public level, mean a lot to this rather ambitious placement for Venus, less so perhaps in the bedroom, but that is a side that Venus Capricorn would prefer to keep private! Venus’s contours are finely chiselled and with a distinct “no frills attached” attitude in this serious sign. Ambition is often part of the picture too. Venus will remain OOB until 7th December, the wild-card effect could be quite marked during this period and due to its retrograde[...]
