FULL MOON IN VIRGO Don’t get too wrapped up in the details... This Full Moon will occur at 05°23’ Virgo (antiscion 24°37’ Aries) only just a day after Mercury, dispositor of this Full Moon moves into the sign of Pisces (in opposition to the sign of Virgo). Mercury in its detriment and fall in Pisces and also combust by means of its vicinity to the Sun so the dispositor of this Full Moon is severely debilitated and unable to function well. The Moon itself forms the handle of a bucket chart formation. The energy of the planets on the opposite side of the chart to the Moon [...]
MERCURY GLIDES INTO DREAMY PISCES Fantasy becomes reality and authenticity waivers….. Mercury isn’t at his best in Pisces, he’s actually in his detriment and fall which obviously doesn’t help him feel good, or on the ball either for that matter. Mercury here tunes in his antenna, he’s the receiver of the word and thought but he has some difficulty in articulating his actual speech and sentences often come out confused and of dubious or multiple meaning. In other words; confusion reigns! This is due to the fact of his being on the receiving end of messages from the [...]
VENUS ENTERS AQUARIUS Venus enters the cool, collected and independent sign of Aquarius and joins the rendezvous with the other 4 planets already in Aquarius (Pluto, Mars, Mercury and Sun). In this sign Venus wants the liberty to come and go as it pleases but this doesn’t necessarily mean unfaithfulness, just that equal rights and a seemingly no-strings-attached attitude need to be maintained for relationships to function. It’s the Venus placement par excellence for bed-buddies in a mix-and-match of friends becoming lovers and vice versa since Venus here is rather emotionally [...]
MARS IN AQUARIUS Mars in Aquarius...unusual, eccentric, crazy and revolutionary Having left the sign of its exaltation to find itself peregrine, in Aquarius we could find Mars fighting for the masses or fighting to impress since he has a strong sense of individualism and eccentricity as he pursues his goals but he also likes to start off any endeavour as part of a group. To the point that he prefers to see how much he differs from the norm rather than trying to understand how much he has in common with his peers. Mars is a hot, dry planet and Aquarius, being an Air sign has hot and [...]
NEW MOON IN AQUARIUS If you dig in your heels too deep you could break your leg The New Moon will occur at 20°41’ Aquarius (antiscion 9°19’ Scorpio) for a total of 4 planets in the sign making this lunation one of the most important of the year for its singular focus on the signs of the Fixed modality since there are another 2 planets in the Fixed sign of Taurus too. This New Moon is the fourth in a series of five New Moons at 20° of the relative signs. As mentioned above the lunation chart is very heavy in Fixed modality with 6 planets out of 10 in these signs indicating an[...]
MERCURY ENTERS AQUARIUS 4-5 FEBRUARY 2024 Abstract thinking or unusual facts? In Aquarius, a sign co-ruled by Saturn (traditional) and Uranus (modern), Mercury is even more thirsty for knowledge, always in search of new ideas and technologies but ready to reject or even abandon them as soon as new (Uranus) becomes normal (Saturn). Mercury in Aquarius will give us new visions, make us aware of new possibilities, allow us to envision an ideal world or society, which might be great as a theory, but much less so as a practicality. Aquarius is a fixed Air sign so here Mercury is at home[...]
