NEPTUNE STATIONS DIRECT IN PISCES The fog will lift…but the lies may continue For the final run in Pisces after 14 years of permanence!!! Neptune turns direct on 10 December at 29°22’ Pisces (antiscion 00°38’ Libra). This means that uncertainties or lack of clarity that you have been internalizing and that may have surfaced from the past, finally start to lift as the fog clears (look to the house where you have Pisces on the cusp to see where the fogginess may have been manifesting for you as well as the sign/house/aspects of your natal Neptune). Neptune transiting through the[...]
SATURN STATIONS DIRECT The last station of Saturn in Pisces - have we learned any lessons? Saturn will end its annual retrograde period on 27-28 November, to station direct at 25°09’ Pisces (antiscion 04°51’ Libra) in an exact to the minute trine aspect to the Jupiter station retrograde in Cancer which took place on 11 November this year. This aspect is still in force and there is a Grand Water trine formed by the Saturn-Neptune R trine Jupiter R trine Mercury R-Venus. Too many (Jupiter R) poisonous (Venus in Scorpio) words (Mercury) R have the ability (Saturn) to confuse and [...]
MERCURY STATIONS DIRECT IN PISCES Is the fog lifting? Doubt it! On 7 April Mercury will station direct at 26°49’ Pisces (antiscion 03°11’ Libra), a direct station after three weeks of retrograde is usually a cause for a huge sigh of relief from many of us (the larger part of the retrograde period was spent in Aries). Unfortunately, not so this time since Mercury stations direct in a tight separating conjunction to both Saturn and Venus R, closely sextile Uranus also to a trine to Mars. Mercury is also on the degree of the nodes making it one of the most important planets in the [...]
VENUS RETROGRADE IN ARIES/PISCES Venus, the planet of values (what WE value and desire), love and finances, entered the sign of Aries on the 4 February this year. Venus usually spends approximately 37 days in each sign but due to its 42-day retrograde period it will actually remain in Aries only until the 27 March (retrograding from 10°50’ Aries – antiscion 19°10’ Virgo) before re-entering the sign of Pisces and stationing direct on the 12-13 of April at 24°37’ Pisces (antiscion 05°23’ Libra). The last time Venus was retrograde in the signs of Aries-Pisces was in [...]
MERCURY GLIDES INTO DREAMY PISCES Fantasy becomes reality and authenticity waivers….. It’s Valentine’s day too! Mercury isn’t at his best in Pisces, he’s actually in his detriment and fall which obviously doesn’t help him feel good, or on the ball either for that matter. Also, the planet will return to Pisces in late March due to the retrograde period which begins on the 14-15 March at 09°35’ Aries. Mercury in Pisces tunes in his antenna, he’s the receiver of the word and thought but he has some difficulty in articulating his actual speech, and sentences often [...]
NEPTUNE STATIONS RETROGRADE “Intuition is seeing with the soul.” Dean Koontz Neptune starts his yearly 5-month long retrograde season at 27°41’ in his home sign of Pisces (antiscion 02°19’ Libra) where he has been transiting since 2011-2012. This transit will activate planets or angles between 30-25° of the mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces). When Neptune turns retrograde, the inner structures that are undergoing dissolution and change are more easily brought to the attention of our mind allowing us to review our blind-spots and uncover more hidden [...]
SATURN’S 5-MONTH RETROGRADE PERIOD STARTS ON 17 JUNE 2023 Sorting out the possible from the impossible…. Saturn will station retrograde at 07°12’ Pisces (antiscion 22°48’ Libra) on the 17th of June to station direct at 00°31’ Pisces on 4th November. Saturn is the planet of restriction and order which rewards hard work and perseverance. Pisces is known for its fervid imagination and intuitive compassion, it is also the sign of being gullible and goal-less, these two qualities being totally at odds with Saturn themes. Pisces brings to mind the victim and the martyr [...]
SATURN ENTERS PISCES Less than an hour after, and opposite the sign of the Full Moon in Virgo, the planet of rules, regulations, boundaries and restriction enters the sign of the vague, the emotional, the impressionable, the self-indulgent and the boundary-less. A cold, dry, masculine, diurnal planet in a cold, moist, female and nocturnal sign. A sign in which Saturn enjoys minor dignity between 0-10° and 26-30°. This transit will begin on March 7th this year and continue until the 25th of May 2025 when it will enter Aries for a 4-month stay before re-entering Pisces on 1st [...]
MERCURY GLIDES INTO DREAMY PISCES Fantasy becomes reality and authenticity waivers...mind-boggling in the literal sense! Mercury isn’t at his best in Pisces, he’s actually in his detriment and fall which obviously doesn’t help him feel good, or on the ball either for that matter. Mercury here tunes in his antenna, he’s the receiver of the word and thought but he has some difficulty in articulating his actual speech and sentences often come out confused and of dubious or multiple meaning. In other words; confusion reigns! This is due to the fact that being on the receiving [...]
VENUS IN PISCES In love with love On the 26-27 of January (depending on where you are in the world), Venus, the planet of love, romance, harmony and values, glides into the sign of Pisces, the sign of its exaltation, ruled traditionally by Jupiter and where Neptune, modern co-ruler of Pisces, has been transiting since April 2011. On the 15th of February (a day after Valentine’s Day) Venus and Neptune will be cuddling up real close (24°04’ Pisces in longitude and also tightly parallel by declination). What might that mean? That we may be lost in a realm of fantasy, washed [...]
