MARS ENTERS CANCER From Air to Water...from rational to emotional Mars enters Cancer on the 4th September and goes OOB from the 9th to the 17th September, when Mars is OOB we can expect the energy to be fiercer which can mean being extra courageous defending our tribe or violently angry with whoever wrongs us or ours. Mars will enter the sign of Leo on the 4th of November BUT on the 6th of December the planet will station retrograde and return to the sign of Cancer on the 6th of January 2025 only to leave the sign between the 17-18 April 2025! During this time Mars will be OOB from [...]
NEW MOON IN VIRGO Are all the details out in the open? On the 2-3rd of this month (depending in which part of the world you are) there will be a New Moon at 11°04’ Virgo, a Mutable, Earth sign ruled by Mercury (antiscion 18°56’ Aries). A lunation chart with only one planet (Mercury) in the Fire element and heavy (6 planets) in the Mutable signs. This may indicate a lack of optimism but a need to have one’s opinions respected at the same time (Mercury in Leo) together with being overyielding and too malleable (Sun, Moon, Jupiter and Mars in Mutable signs – as well as Saturn [...]
URANUS STATIONS RETROGRADE IN TAURUS …… can we cope with surprises? Uranus starts his yearly, five-month retrograde period at 27°15’ Taurus on 01 September (antiscion 02°45’ Leo) which lasts until 30 January 2025 when it stations direct at 23°15’ Taurus. Only a few hours later (01-02 September) Pluto R leaves the sign of Aquarius (of which Uranus is the modern ruler) and re-enters Capricorn for the very last time in this cycle. This is the penultimate retrograde in Taurus before the planet makes a tentative entry in Gemini on the 7th July 2025 remaining there until 8th [...]
VENUS ENTERS LIBRA Needing to find a balance as we process the changes…. Venus enters one of its home signs on the 29th August. Venus takes on a more rational stance in Airy Libra with peace and harmony being of utmost importance as it endeavours to keep an even keel (Taurus, its other home sign is a much more sensual placement). Some keywords for Libra might be: impartial, balanced, diplomatic, charming, tasteful, indecisive, flirtatious, peaceable and compromising. In Libra, Venus tends towards compromise and harmony in relationships but it also has problems deciding who [...]
MERCURY STATIONS DIRECT IN LEO Mercury’s 3-week retrograde period will end on the 28th of August at 21°25’ Leo (antiscion 08°35’ Taurus). In Leo, all planets want to be respected according to their nature. Mercury in Leo wants to be respected for his opinions and views and in desiring this, self-confidence often turns into bravado and presumption. During this retrograde we will have had the opportunity to think about in which part of life we want to shine in (the Leo part of the retrograde) and be respected for our opinions and ideas and where we can be of service (the Virgo [...]
FULL MOON IN AQUARIUS …the friendship Moon The Full Moon this month falls at 27°15’ of the sign of Aquarius (antiscion 02°45 Scorpio), a Fixed, Air sign ruled by Saturn (traditional ruler) and Uranus (modern ruler). Full Moons are times of harvest and completion when things concerning the house in the natal chart with Aquarius on its cusp can’t possibly get any better or any worse for that matter. The Moon in this lunation is ruled by Saturn (traditional ruler), presently retrograde and peregrine in the sign of Pisces but also in an applying square to Jupiter and a [...]
A PREVIEW OF THE UPCOMING LUNAR ECLIPSE IN PISCES I normally write my planetary transit articles well in advance of the actual dates so today I was looking into the Lunar eclipse that will take place at 25°41’ Pisces (antiscion 04°19’ Libra) on the 17-18 September. This affects me personally since the Eclipse will be opposing my natal Saturn at 25°32’ Virgo so I was interested to see what other charts in the news might be involved. After a quick browse of Nick Campion’s excellent volume “The book of World Horoscopes” I found the charts of two countries which are [...]
MERCURY STATIONS RETROGRADE IN VIRGO Let’s endeavour to discern the useful from the useless… Only a few hours after the New Moon, Mercury will station retrograde at 04°06’ Virgo (antiscion 25°54’ Aries) to station direct at 21°24’ Leo on August 28th. Of course, the retrograde movement alters the way Mercury is expressed and makes it more an internal, inward journey rather than an expansive outward thrust which however could (and probably will) manifest as delays and hiccups in all types of plans. This Mercury retrograde in an Earth sign could involve re-thinking what [...]
AT WHAT POINT DOES TOO MUCH BECOME TOO MUCH? On 14 August Mars conjoins Jupiter (16°40’ Gemini, antiscion 13°20’ Cancer) in the mentally stimulated, socially active sign of Gemini. Mars is in minor essential dignity in Gemini but Jupiter is in his detriment, neither will be inclined to be on their best behaviour and exuberance may abound with excess mental activity and weird bombastic ideas, there may also be accidents and incidents regarding travel, particularly air (Gemini) travel. Only a few hours later, Mars and then Jupiter (5 days) move into a square aspect with Saturn R in [...]
NEW MOON IN LEO ….creativity, love, respect, discipline and dreams There will be a New Moon at 12°34’ Leo (antiscion 17°26’ Taurus) on 4th of August. With all that Leo energy around (Sun-Moon-Venus all in Leo) we might feel the urge to start some new creative process to get passionate about and resort to excessive pride (another Leo characteristic) that could actually block our progress. Only a few hours after the New Moon, Mercury will station retrograde at 04°06’ Virgo (antiscion 25°54’ Aries). This might be a good moment to make sure you’ve got your plans right [...]
