…. Less me and more we? Early morning (GMT) on the 21st January there will be the first Lunar Eclipse of 2019 at 00°52’ in the fiery sign of Leo, the “look at me and respect me” sign whilst the Sun in Aquarius encourages us to take a less egoistical view of the world. It will be the first of three super Moons in a row since it is at its closest to the Earth during these lunar phases, it will also be the last eclipse along the Leo-Aquarius axis, the next ones will start in 2036. The last lunar eclipse* around this degree was at 01° Leo on January 21st 2000. What was happening [...]
On the 13th of January Jupiter will form a square aspect to Neptune at 15° (Sagittarius-Pisces). This is the final square before the conjunction of the two planets that will occur at 24° Pisces on the 22nd April 2022. A Jupiter-Neptune conjunction takes place approximately every 13 years. Both planets are in their home signs, doubly so, since Jupiter is also the traditional ruler of Pisces, Neptune being assigned as its co-ruler several years after its discovery in 1846. The square is an aspect of tension and often manifests as an achievement coming from frustration thus forcing us [...]
With 5 planets and the Lunar South Node now in Capricorn could this be the test-drive for the great Saturn-Pluto conjunction of 2020? Is this a celestial nudge for each of us to accept responsibility for our own actions or will we continue to play the blame-game until events spin completely out of our hands? On the 6th of January there will be a New Moon and partial Solar Eclipse at 15°25’ in the sign of Capricorn, this is the fourth in a series of seven New Moons in a row at 15° of the relative monthly sign. The series started on 9th October 2018 with the New Moon at 15° Libra and [...]
….a suddenly serious mood Mercury barges out of Sagittarius with the usual bluntness and awkwardness that often characterises his sojourn there and bounces into Capricorn. The planet went OOB just before his ingress in Capricorn and will maintain his wild-card characteristic until the 18th January when he inbounds once again. After fun-loving Sagittarius this will certainly hit him with force, dampening his mood and deepening his thoughts and encouraging all of us to think, plan and talk in a much more serious fashion but let’s not lose our sense of humour altogether please! [...]
…no stopping me now! Mars will enter its home sign of Aries just as the New Year kicks in. Giving us all a hands-on, get-out-there-and-do-it start to the year, the planet will leave Aries for Taurus on the 14th February. In the natal theme Mars represents our basic drive, our energy, the way we act thus our assertiveness and our anger. We experience our first Mars return at age 2 years and this is when we learn to assert ourselves by saying “NO” to everything and everyone. It is at this age that we learn how to control our Mars function or not if no-one is there to direct our [...]
WHAT’S IN STORE FOR 2019? Here’s just a brief summary of what might be in store for each of the zodiacal signs over the next year. Please note that this is a GENERAL OUTLOOK treating each Sun sign as if it was without aspects in a fictitious natal chart and considering only the conjunction, opposition and square. CARDINAL SIGNS – ARIES, CANCER, LIBRA, CAPRICORN 00-07° Jupiter in Capricorn – look for opportunities and grab them (December 2019) 10-25° Saturn in Capricorn – time for a reality check and an adjustment on a personal level (all year) [...]
Before the Festivities begin I’m reposting an article that appeared in my blog in 2015…it’s also a tiny introduction into the world of esoteric astrology. The Planet Earth in the Natal Horoscope What’s it like to be an Earthling? When we were born the Sun was in a certain sign of the zodiac and the Earth was in the sign exactly opposite this. Eg.: Aries Sun and Libra Earth, Cancer Sun and Capricorn Earth etc. Following this reasoning, we might assume that we are spiritual entities born into a physical environment, such as the body we inhabit. We need to make a [...]
On the 22nd there will be a Full Moon at 00°49’ Cancer. Full Moons are the times when matters climax, they are “now or never” moments regarding any projects we have initiated or intentions set at the preceding New Moon fourteen days ago. However this Full Moon could have a rather more ponderous or controlled feeling to it since the Sun is moving into a conjunction with sign ruler Saturn and Moon, although strong in its home sign of Cancer, may feel a little crushed by this opposition.. This particular lunation occurs one day after the Winter Solstice and is noteworthy because we [...]

……it’s just an illusion…or is it? There will be a New Moon at 15°07’ of Sagittarius on December 7th. This is a pretty buoyant New Moon, by all means be optimistic but don’t get too taken away because it could be an illusion! On New Moons we set our intentions for the month ahead and this one in particular offers the Sagittarian perspective on our destiny and our relationship with the universe inviting us to look ahead with optimism. This New Moon comes sandwiched in between Mercury stationing direct (the previous day) and Mars conjoining Neptune in Pisces (the day [...]
