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 GEMINI 6 JUNE 2024 keeping calm may be a problem.... The New Moon will occur at 16°18’ Gemini (antiscion 13°42’ 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. New Moons are times when we are invited to set our intentions for the month to come regarding that area of our life which the Moon is illuminating in this lunar phase. People most affected by this [...]
MERCURY ENTERS GEMINI Mentally instable? Mercury enters one of the signs that it rules on the 3rd of June. 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 here; thief, storyteller (aka liar), trickster, magician, craftsman, [...]
MERCURY ENTERS GEMINI AND GOES OOB Mentally instable? Mercury enters one of the signs that it rules on the 11th June and goes OOB on the 24th remaining in this condition until the 7th July. 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! The OOB status could make this planet very versatile indeed with great curiosity and a real talent for the [...]
MARS STATIONS DIRECT BUT REMAINS OOB 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! The planet will now be able to express its energy in a more straightforward manner although it will remain OOB and still rather a wild card (also peregrine) until the 4/5th of May. When Mars is retrograde its energies turn inwards and it may seem that our plans backfire [...]
Mercury will station retrograde on the 13th October at 11°40’ Scorpio (antiscion 18°20’ Aquarius). The retrograde period will end on the 3rd November at 25°53’ Libra (antiscion 4°07’ Pisces) Mercury is in opposition to retrograde Uranus in Taurus so we could expect some upsets as these two fixed signs are occupied by two of the most unpredictable and excitable planets. There will be three passes of this aspect, all at 9° Scorpio-Taurus so anyone with planets or angles between 7-12° of the Fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius) will be involved in this aspect. What [...]
