VENUS CONJUNCT MARS IN AQUARIUS First Mars, then 7 minutes later Venus, enter Aquarius on the 5th or the 6th March depending on where in the world you live and less than an hour later they conjoin at 0°01’ of the sign. The same degree and the same sign as the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction in December 2020 thus activating the Grand Conjunction. 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 [...]
MERCURY RE-ENTERS AQUARIUS On Valentine’s Day! Abstract thinking or unusual facts? Mercury will remain in Aquarius until the 9th of March.
FULL MOON IN LEO The show must go on… The Full Moon will be at 27°59’ Leo (antiscion 2°01’ Taurus). A Full Moon in Leo could also give us a transient emotional mood for extravagance or for showing off!! This drama queen Moon sits all alone on the other side of the lunation chart like an entertainer doing a solo act with all the other planets inside the nodal axis hopefully ready and willing to applaud. Leo is a Fixed, Fire sign. In traditional astrology Leo governs the 5th house, so this Full Moon operates on the 5th-11th house axis (Leo-Aquarius): the things we create [...]
MERCURY STATIONS DIRECT IN CAPRICORN A bit more time for some serious thinking Mercury’s retrograde period will end on 3rd-4th February when Mercury stations direct at 24°22’ Capricorn (antiscion 05°38’ Sagittarius). For me, as a Gemini, this period has been fraught with “irritations”, errors and setbacks of all kinds. How about you? This retrograde period started when Mercury was in Aquarius, a sign in which the planet will re-enter on the 14th of February. Gemini and Virgo, both ruled by Mercury, may have responded differently to the signs their ruling planet moved [...]
NEW MOON IN AQUARIUS ON 31 JANUARY/1 FEBRUARY 2022 Independently united. There will be a New Moon at 12°19’ of Aquarius, a fixed, Air sign (antiscion 17°41’ Scorpio). This is the fourth in a series of five New Moons in a row at 12° of the relative monthly sign.
VENUS STATIONS DIRECT 29 JANUARY 2022 Venus terminates her (apparent) retrograde motion and stations direct at 11°04’ Capricorn (antiscion 18°56’ Sagittarius). Venus can now be seen in the sky as a morning star.
OOB MARS ENTERS CAPRICORN ON 24 JANUARY 2022 The marathon runner... Mars is still OOB as it enters Capricorn, the sign of its exaltation, it will remain OOB until the 10th of February when it will be at 12° 43’ Capricorn.
LUNAR NODES CHANGE SIGNS ON 18th JANUARY 2022 The transiting nodes are reality checks on our soul path… On January 18th, the Lunar Nodes will ingress the Taurus/Scorpio axis after having been in the Gemini/Sagittarius polarity since May 2020. So, the modality will change from Mutable (Air-Fire) to Fixed (Earth-Water).
OOB FULL MOON IN CANCER ON 17-18 JANUARY 2022 On the 17-18 February (depending on where you find yourself in the world) there will be an OOB Full Moon at 27°50’ Cancer (antiscion 2°10’ Gemini), nurturing qualities could be at their best or, on the contrary, at their worst. The Full Moon will occur only a few hours before the direct station of Uranus and the entrance of the Lunar nodes on the Taurus-Scorpio axis.
URANUS STATIONS DIRECT ON 18 JANUARY 2022 The road ahead seems quite bumpy…. Uranus ends its yearly, five-month retrograde period at 10°49’ Taurus (antiscion 19°11’ Leo) on the 18th January and finds itself immediately in a quincunx aspect with Mars (25°49’ Sag- 10°49’ Taurus) a friction that needs to be acted upon with enthusiastic Mars tending towards a Sagittarian over-achievement and Uranus wanting to enjoy life within the limits imposed by Taurus.
