MARS ENTERS VIRGO a mechanical housewife? Let’s hope that once the difficult and treacherous square to Uranus is over (takes place on 15 June and affects several charts already in the news for other reasons), Mars will use its energy in Virgo to help the needy, clear up any and all misunderstandings and clean up the mess where necessary. After swaggering its way through Leo in a two-part journey that started on 4 November 2024, went back into the sign of Cancer and re-entered the sign of Leo on 18 April 2025, Mars now enters the more modest and service-orientated sign of Virgo.[...]
OOB FULL MOON IN SAGITTARIUS facing the future with diligence and optimism…are we? There will be a very, very OOB Full Moon (28°05’ South) at 20°39’ Sagittarius, a mutable Fire sign (antiscion 09°21’ Capricorn). The Sagittarius Moon is usually a jovial, quest-searching entity that desires, above all, truth and something to believe in. It also loves freedom and is easily motivated. This lunation activates the Lunar Eclipse at 23°57’ Virgo which took place on the 14 March this year and the Lunar Nodes are also on that degree in this chart. I would like to remind you what [...]
JUPITER IN CANCER 2025-2026 Jupiter enters Cancer on 9 June this year and will remain continuously in the sign until 30 June 2026. The last two cycles of Jupiter in Cancer, where it is exalted, were from July 2001 to August 2002 and from June 2013 to July 2014. What was happening in your life then? Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system and there are more than 60 satellites or Moons orbiting around it, some of which have only been identified recently. Alan Leo in his book “The Art of Synthesis” gave a sort of monicker to each of the planets and Jupiter was called [...]
OOB MERCURY ENTERS CANCER OOB until the 20-21 June, Mercury enters the nurturing sign of Cancer on 08 June. Mercury is a little out of sync in Cancer, finding some minor dignity only between 10-20° of the sign. Being a Water sign, Cancer is far too emotional for “all-in-my-head” Mercury and with the planet being OOB for most of its stay there may mean that we have an overflow of rationality when it comes to sentiments and feelings or, our poetic vein and story-telling could reach new heights! Mercury will make the following aspects during its passage through Cancer: 09 June: [...]
VENUS ENTERS TAURUS I’m sexy and I know it…. Venus the planet of love, comfort and finances enters one of her home signs on the 5-6 June. Taurus is a sign known for its down-to-earth practicality and love of tactile sensations. It’s a Fixed, Earth sign which is very steadfast, stubborn and unable and unwilling to accept change and for the above reasons Taurus is known as a very dependable sign always arriving at its prefixed goals with its slow and steady attitude. Venus in Taurus is naturally seductive and sensual with a strong capacity for devotion which could lead to [...]
MERCURY IN GEMINI 25/26 MAY 2025 Mentally unstable? Mercury enters one of its home signs and goes OOB from 01 June to 20/21 June when it has already move into the sign of Cancer. 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 number of roles; [...]
OOB NEW MOON IN GEMINI 26/27 MAY 2025 keeping calm may be a problem.... The New Moon will occur at 06°046 Gemini (antiscion 23°54’ Cancer). This is a very inquisitive, intellectual Moon, hard to pin down emotionally due to its constantly changing feelings caused by its tendency to over-rationalise everything. Under pressure this Moon is not very reliable and commitment issues may surface. The OOB New Moon is making several aspects, firstly, it is separating from a conjunction to its dispositor Mercury, and all three planets are in a trine aspect to a retrograde Pluto in [...]
FULL MOON IN SCORPIO Finding the answers but keeping them to ourselves. A Full Moon at 22°13’ in the Fixed, Water sign of Scorpio (antiscion 07°47’ Aquarius). Moon’s (feelings/people) traditional dispositor, Mars, is in Leo and under a wide applying square from Mercury in Taurus as well as an applying trine from Venus in Aries, which is also dispositor of the Sun in this lunation chart. A time to make decisions is approaching and they won’t be easy since there will be a high probability of disrespecting some people’s opinions in favour of others given that the square [...]
SATURN IN ARIES 2025-2028 Saturn will make its first tentative entrance into Aries on 24-25 May 2025 remaining in this sign until 01 September when by retrograde motion it will return to Pisces. From Water to Fire. The old man enters the sign of youth, who will teach who? Saturn in Pisces enjoyed only minor dignity in the first 10 and the last 5 degrees of the sign (the former by face, the latter by term). In Aries, Saturn will be in his fall and only slightly improved by dignity in term during the last 5 degrees of the sign. So, for the most part of his stay, Saturn will be [...]
SLOW AND STEADY WHEN MERCURY RIDES THE BULL…. Mercury enters Taurus on 10 May, two days before the Full Moon in Scorpio. 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. When contrasted in the natal chart, he could turn narrow-minded, stubborn, inflexible and suspicious of new ideas and theories. In all cases he takes his time to make decisions but once made they usually become irrevocable. Taurus rules the 2nd house and so it regards all things connected to our [...]
