MARS STATIONS DIRECT BUT REMAINS OOB ON 12 JANUARY 2023 mental stress and unexpressed plans Finally, OOB Mars stations direct at 08°07’ Gemini (antiscion 21°53’ Cancer) on the 12th of January and it was about time might I add from a very personal perspective having 4 planets in the mutable signs including Mars itself in Gemini!
OOB FULL MOON IN CANCER 6-7 JANUARY 2023 the mooniest Moon…. The Full Moon will occur at 16°21’ Cancer, a Cardinal, Water sign (antiscion 13°39’ Gemini) and will be the first Full Moon of this new year. The most motherly of Moons opposes the sternest and most fatherly of Suns.
VENUS ENTERS AQUARIUS 2-3 JANUARY 2023 After a spell in serious, practical Capricorn, Venus enters the cool, collected and independent sign of Aquarius. 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.
MERCURY STATIONS RETROGRADE IN CAPRICORN 28 DECEMBER 2022 Mercury stations retrograde at 24°21’ Capricorn (antiscion 5°39’ Sagittarius) and conjoins Venus only 4.5 hours later.
NEW MOON IN CAPRICORN 23 DECEMBER 2022 How long must we cling to the past? The New Moon at 01°32’ Capricorn (antiscion 28°28’ Sagittarius) is the 2nd of a series of 4 on this degree of the relative consecutive signs.
JUPITER MOVES INTO ARIES tolerance becomes difficult From cold and moist to hot and dry, on 20 December Jupiter moves out of Pisces where it has rulership, for a short stay in Aries remaining until 16 May 2023 when it enters Taurus.
VENUS ENTERS CAPRICORN From frivolous and gaudy to self-possessed and distinct. Social propriety and etiquette, at least on a public level, mean a lot to this rather ambitious placement for Venus, less so perhaps in the bedroom, but that is a side that Venus Capricorn would prefer to keep private! Venus’s contours are finely chiselled and with a distinct “no frills attached” attitude in this serious sign. Ambition is often part of the picture too. Although in daytime triplicity and in its own term from 0-5°59’ this nevertheless doesn’t seem to be the best placement for a [...]
OOB FULL MOON IN GEMINI …focus is what we need There will be a Full Moon at 16°01’ Gemini on 7-8 of December (antiscion 13° 59’ Cancer). As we all know, full moons are when matters that have been simmering under the surface emerge to be dealt with. This lunation occurs on the 3rd-9th house axis (Gemini-Sagittarius) in traditional astrology; how I think vs how they think, short trips vs long journeys, reason vs intuition etc. Both signs are concerned with gathering and spreading knowledge as well as education and travel. This is a restless, mentally active Full Moon, the last[...]
OOB MERCURY MOVES INTO CAPRICORN 6 DECEMBER 2022 OOB Mercury barges out of Sagittarius with the usual bluntness and awkwardness that often characterises his sojourn there and bounces into Capricorn. It’s OOB status started on November 23 and ends on December 22.
NEPTUNE STATIONS DIRECT IN PISCES ON 3-4 DECEMBER 2022 The fog will lift…but the lies may continue Neptune transiting through the houses has the effect of “dissolving” the matters concerning that particular house and although the process is usually very long it is nevertheless constant.
