• NEW MOON AND PARTIAL SOLAR ECLIPSE IN TAURUS 30 APRIL 2022

    NEW MOON AND PARTIAL SOLAR ECLIPSE IN TAURUS feeling comfortable isn’t always the best thing…. This is the second New Moon in April and the first of the eclipses in 2022. It will occur at 10°28’ Taurus (antiscion 19°32’ Leo). There are no planets in the Fire element, our intuition is down and it’s hard to get started, this latter characteristic is also confirmed by the chart having only one planet in the Cardinal signs. Jupiter rules four of the planets in the chart and Venus rules another three, optimism and love should abound or perhaps too much confidence will [...]

    MERCURY ENTERS GEMINI 29 APRIL 2022

    MERCURY ENTERS GEMINI  Mentally unstable? Only a few hours after Pluto stations retrograde, Mercury enters one of the signs that it rules on the 29th April and stations retrograde on the 10th of May. Mercury is obviously in his element here, a rational and agile thinker open to new ideas and experimentations, puns and intellectual flexibility are also part of the game although Mercury is also the prankster of the zodiac and here words could be used to alter the truth in some way! A little bit of history: Mercury in the Greek myth is associated with Hermes and he held an amazing[...]

    FULL MOON IN LIBRA 16 APRIL 2022

    FULL MOON IN LIBRA  is it “me” or “we” time for you? The Full Moon will occur at 26°45’ Libra, a Cardinal, Air sign ruled by Venus (antiscion 3°15’ Pisces).

Venus, dispositor of this Full Moon, is exalted in Pisces and parallel the Moon as it sextiles the Mercury-Uranus conjunction in[...]

    MARS ENTERS PISCES ON 14-15 APRIL 2022

    MARS ENTERS PISCES  and tired is the new normal... Although in its own triplicity in Pisces, Mars tends nevertheless to lose itself a little in this sign. Energies are scattered and vitality is often low which might lead to a tendency to brooding and introspection. On the other hand, Mars in Pisces is often gifted with an unusual intuitive accuracy but frequently prefers to win by yielding itself to the other as it moves from one mood to another with great ease thus creating confusion in the adversary. Helplessness is often used as a weapon “poor me” in the hope of creating a bad[...]

    MERCURY ENTERS TAURUS 10-11 APRIL 2022

    MERCURY ENTERS TAURUS slow and steady when mercury rides the bull…. Mercury enters Taurus on the 10-11th April depending on where you are in the world. Mercury in this Fixed, Earth sign can be associated with common sense, down-to-earth thinking and practical intelligence with an eye on security and self-worth issues.
