New Moon in Taurus

Current Sidereal placements:
Sun at 11° Taurus
Mercury 8° Taurus
Venus at 26° Pisces (EXALTED! Do Venus stuff!)
Mars at 24° Cancer (detriment, no Mars Magick now)
Jupiter at 2° Gemini
Saturn at 6° Pisces
Uranus at 3° Taurus
Neptune at 7° Pisces (rulership)
Pluto RETROGRADE at 9° Capricorn
North Node at 0° Pisces

New Moon at 11° Taurus. The Moon is “exalted” in Taurus, which means it expresses itself easily. This gives a calm, sensuous and indulgent feel to last weekend. The Sun in an earth sign brings up the issue of what we’re committing ourselves to, and if we need to update our agreements.

A new moon occurs every month when the Sun and Moon are in the same sign. It’s the beginning of a 30-day lunar cycle, and it’s when you set your intentions for the coming month. As the Moon grows, your intention grows in form and scope; coming to fruition at the full Moon two weeks later. Forming an intention is instinctual, since the Moon is black and there’s no illumination of the night sky. The Sun (the light) is also hidden, so we must ‘feel” our way, since we cannot see clearly.

The BIG change however, is that Rahu and Ketu have just entered new signs for the coming 18 months and are hovering at 0 degrees. This creates instability and uncertainty. Where are Aquarius and Leo in your Vedic chart? It shows what’s being activated in this new cycle. To find out where the change is, you can book a reading with me here.

Jupiter has also entered Gemini for the next year, and will offer increased creativity, expansion with communication and self expression. Kickstart your mind into a higher gear, and focus on achieving your potential.

Mars is still languishing in the sign of Cancer, where he is supremely unhappy. If there’s been trouble in the home the past couple of months don’t despair, we’re almost through it!

Uranus is currently in Taurus, and it will shake up and change wherever Taurus sits in your chart. It’s probably an area that has started feeling stagnant; a corner of your life that needs some fresh air. Uranus brings liberation, and a new way of expressing the genius within you. This corner of your life will radically transform in the next seven years.

Today! Monday, May 12th we have a Full Moon in Libra. Romance is in the air. We can have positive conversations and work out agreements with people. The focus is on playing fair and taking everyone’s feelings into account. Work towards win-win situations. This Moon focuses on relationships and reflects the culmination of what’s been building up this Spring.

The Sun in Aries symbolizes the “self” and individuality, and it’s opposite, Libra, represents balance, fairness, relationships, equality and justice. Libra is the sign where we have to deal with other people, so all of our relationships and partnerships will be highlighted this week. It’s a great time to hammer out new, balanced agreements at work too.

The Sun will be in a conjunction with Uranus on this Full Moon too, so expect the unexpected. Literally anything can happen. Self love can be understood on a new level.

Full Moon in Virgo

Current Sidereal placements:
Sun at 0° Aries (EXALTED! Excellent time for Sun Magick!
Mercury 4° Pisces (detriment, no Mercury Magick now)
Venus at 0° Pisces (EXALTED! Do Venus stuff!)
Mars at 4° Cancer (detriment, no Mars Magick now)

Pluto at 9° Capricorn
North Node at 3° Pisces

We had a Full Moon at 28 Virgo last Saturday. It sparks off a week of organization and assimilation. I view Virgo as the sign of the High Priestess, inspiring us to own our power, and living in our authenticity. With Virgo we get REAL and accept what life has given us. The problem though, is Virgo’s ruler Mercury is currently wallowing in Pisces. He’s unable to express himself there, and his quickness gets watered down with dreams and intuition. So yeah, there may not be a lot of clarity this week. It’s a balance between taking care of business and trusting our intuition.

But the BEST news is that Venus turned DIRECT right after the full moon. This brings a new chapter of love and money into our lives. If things have felt “off” over the past couple of months, we now have a new clarity and direction. Follow the truth you’re finding now, and take a step towards freedom. Last Saturday’s full moon can heal self-doubt and heartbreak, and offers true closure on relationships, ideas, and contracts when it’s for the highest good.

Venus turning Direct and becoming the Morning Star is symbolic of rebellion, and it only occurs once every 18 months. The weeks ahead are when Venus reaches her brightest luminosity, and she will dominate the morning sky.

And as a reminder, ALL the planets are Direct now! You can make real progress with this forward motion. The Moon, however, is squaring almost every planet this week, so emotionally we are running a gauntlet of different relationships and situations.

Full Moon Eclipse in Leo

CURRENT SKY:
Sun at 27 Aquarius (detriment – no Sun Magick now)
Mercury stationing RETROGRADE at 14 Pisces (in it’s Fall – no Mercury Magick now)
Venus RETROGRADE at 13 Pisces
Mars at 23 Gemini
Jupiter at 18 Taurus
Saturn at 27 Aquarius (rulership)
Neptune at 4 Pisces (rulership, strong)
Pluto at 8 Capricorn
North Node at 2 Pisces

Full Moon Eclipse at 27 Leo sidereally, occuring at 11:55pm Pacific TONIGHT!
Prepare to be liberated.

A Full Moon at the end of Leo often represents a life full of happiness and joy. Leo, ruled by the Sun, follows his heart and connects with creativity. It’s a joyous time, and the perfect night to see electrifying musical or artistic performances. However this Full Moon is exactly opposite Saturn, which means we also need to be hard-working and sincere with our work. Saturn maintains a strict discipline, including cleanliness and neatness. You will never find clutter on his table. 

Some ancient peoples say that being outside with an eclipse is not a good thing. This is because Ketu – symbolizing the past – will be moving across the Moon. It’s the shadowy tail of the cosmic dragon, and it brings up past uncertainties, the unseen, and ancient karmas. If we are ready, it gives us the power to face our past and make fundamental changes, releasing the dead weight of grievances and empty attachments. This eclipse is a portal, showing us how to release regret and heartbreak.

Tonight, this eclipse falls in a section of the Vedic sky called “Uttara Phalguni”. It’s symbolized by a bed, and represents relaxation, comfort, and rejuvenation. Mindfully use this eclipse to remove blocks to prosperity, friendship and noble virtue.

Also, Mercury is going retrograde at 14 Pisces tomorrow (Friday)!

Venus went retrograde last weekend. We are slowing down and looking backwards to old relationship patterns over the next month. Her retrograde cycle is actually an ancient process of transformation. Venus sinks in the evening sky, disappears in the Sun, then rises as the morning star a few week later. She comes down to earth to re-evaluate things. The Venus retrograde cycle comes once every 18 months, and manifests a powerful cycle of death and rebirth. We shed old ideals and think about what works for us in the present. We confront hard truths about love, money, and creativity.  When Venus rises as the Morning Star on April 12th, a new clarity regarding commitment and self-worth will also rise.

Honor Yourself

from digital artist Tetyana Erhart, Ukraine

“Men earn their value through their actions, accomplishments, and ability to provide, while women are born with innate value, embodying beauty, grace, and nurturing energy. This is why men are biologically wired to chase their desires, while women are wired to attract them effortlessly.

Many women forget their power or use it in ways that diminish their worth. Instead of embracing their natural magnetism, they plead for love, care, and attention—when, in reality, they only need to nurture themselves to draw everything they desire toward them.

A woman who prioritizes herself—her well-being, her emotional health, her purpose—becomes irresistible. She doesn’t need to chase or beg; she simply radiates an energy that compels the right people, opportunities, and love toward her.

The world has conditioned women to believe they must prove their worth, to give endlessly without receiving in return. But true feminine energy is about receiving just as much as giving. It is about being in flow rather than forcing things to happen.

A woman in her power does not convince a man to love her. She embodies the kind of energy that makes a man want to cherish, protect, and commit to her. She understands that desperation repels, but self-respect and self-care magnetize devotion.

When a woman takes care of herself—emotionally, mentally, and physically—she automatically becomes more attractive. Not just in a superficial way, but in a deep, energetic way that commands respect and admiration.

She no longer settles for breadcrumbs of love. She knows her presence alone is a gift, and she waits for the man who recognizes it without needing to be reminded or begged.

To all women reading this: You are not here to convince someone to choose you. You are here to choose yourself first. And in doing so, you will attract those who truly see and appreciate you.

Honor yourself. Take care of yourself. Walk away from anything that makes you feel less than worthy. The right love will always find its way to a woman who stands in her power.

Let go of the need to chase or prove your worth. You were born with it. All you need to do is own it.”

– Abhikesh

Love Readings!

The Lovers (1888) by Émile Friant

Interested in a deeper understanding of a current relationship? Want some clarity on your interactions or to know what to expect this year?

In celebration of Valentine’s Day I’m now offering relationship readings!

In this session we will explore how you interact with your partner, what you both bring to the relationship, how to improve things between you, AND what will develop in 2025. This can be a reading between couples, friends, or family members.

SIGN UP HERE!

This reading will be a combination psychic/astrology reading, so after signing up please email me the date, time and location of your birth, and the other person’s birth, to LizRose93 @gmail.com, and I will send you your chart in preparation for our talk. If you can have this chart in front of you (either printed or on a computer), that would be great.

The astrology I use is a “synastry” chart which compares the life paths of two individuals. It shows how the two people affect each other, what lessons they are learning in their relationship, and how future aspects will be affecting their connection. Synastry is the art of chart comparison. It’s your chart alongside the other persons’ and it clearly shows how your planets aspect one another. The art is in the interpretation, and I have decades of experience with these readings.

For instance, if your Venus is on his Mars or vice versa, or even just trining it – FIREWORKS. However if his Saturn is on your Moon? That’s very limiting and challenging. Sun-Mercury? Communication will not be a problem.

In Synastry it’s the major, close and steamingly obvious aspects that tend to tell the story of your relationship. I look for conjunctions, oppositions, squares or trines in a close “orb” of two degrees or less. When you find the top five aspects voila – there is your compatibility.

I can go even further and create a composite chart (your chart and theirs blended into one) and then progress that to show current influences. If you’re annoyed that their Saturn is on your Moon, you can bring in asteroids too! Who cares about that pesky Saturn-Moon situation when his asteroid Lucifer is on your Nefertiti? Still, I will figure out the five most singular, glaringly obvious aspects and stick with those.

I receive many calls from people interested in spells and Magick, and how to bring a partner back to them. My view is to stick to love spells that bring you the ideal partner for yourself, or better yet, stick to rituals that make you awesome for your own pleasure, and lead you to contentment and joy in being alone. If you aren’t happy alone, you won’t be happy with anyone else, and you’ll ruin everything for them while making your own life harder.

My view is to get your life together, do the work on yourself, heal the breaches, and fix your issues. There are amazing people out there waiting for someone worth spending their time with, but who have already done a lot of work on themselves.

Be the best person you can be. Deal with your bitterness, your insecurities, your broken relationships, the holes in your soul, your mom and dad issues. Be the person you need to be, so you can be a good partner to someone. The bar is high for awesome. Have a good life, and share that with other people. There are so many people out there ready for a grown up illuminated person.

Full Moon in Gemini

Current SIDEREAL placements. Sidereal is different than traditional tropical astrology because it’s based on where the planets actually ARE in the constellations:

Sun at 28 Sagittarius
Mercury DIRECT at 11 Sagittarius (in it’s detriment, no Mercurial Magick)
Venus at 15 Aquarius
Mars RETROGRADE at 2 Cancer (Fall, no Mars magick)
Jupiter RETROGRADE at 17 Taurus
Saturn at 20 Aquarius (rulership)
Uranus RETROGRADE at 28 Aries
Neptune 2 Pisces (rulership)
Pluto at 6 Capricorn
North Node at 4 Pisces

Monday, January 13, 2025: Full Moon at 28° Gemini (sidereal), at 2:27pm Pacific. This week will show culminating experiences in our communications, thinking, mindset, and social groups. Gemini is talking and socializing, so get out and have some fun! Also, Full Moons bring peak experiences from the energy that’s been building over the previous two weeks. The focus now is on finding our inner truths, and looking at the big picture of our lives. Maybe you need some time in solitude so you can reflect on what’s working in your life, and what you need to release so you can live in your truth.

Try to avoid confrontations or risky situations though, since the Full Moon is conjunct the planet Mars – actually blocking his light in the sky.

If you’ve never had your true chart done using sidereal astrology, you can book a reading with me here.

Venus will be approaching Saturn this week, arriving exactly conjunct on Saturday, January 18th. This aspect is powerful, and will bring a seriousness to our relationships and creative projects. It will encourage us to get organized, disciplined and responsible with regards to art, music, groups and socializing. It could also support the folks in LA to begin the path of rebuilding their lives into a structure where they can flourish. Saturn rules houses, plans, structure, stability and focus. Venus also rules women, and the conjunction with Saturn can bring up worries and pessimism about relationships. Saturn demands that boundaries be respected and that communications are authentic. People need loyalty and space with this aspect. If you need to have a heart to heart with someone, speak carefully, with restraint and respect.

Uranus is stationing over our heads for several weeks, bringing many changes in direction for each of us. Uranus liberates from limiting ideas and relationships – he sets us free. Where do you need freedom right now? How might new communities help us? Try something different. Take a detour or go to a completely new place and see what happens!

New Moon in Libra

Current SIDEREAL placements. Sidereal is different than traditional tropical astrology because it’s based on where the planets actually ARE in the constellations:

Sun at 15 Libra (in it’s Fall, no Sun magick)
Mercury DIRECT at 3 Scorpio
Venus at 23 Scorpio (detriment, no Venus magick)
Mars at 4 Cancer (Fall, no Mars magick)
Jupiter at RETROGRADE 25 Taurus
Saturn RETROGRADE at 17 Aquarius (rulership)
Uranus RETROGRADE at 0 Taurus
Neptune RETROGRADE 2 Pisces (rulership)
Pluto at 4 Capricorn
North Node at 11 Pisces

Friday we had a New Moon at 15° Libra sidereal. It’s a new beginning for our relationships, friendships, and creative pursuits. New Moons turn the page and give us an opportunity to start over and set new intentions. The new lens for this month is a focus on relationships of all kinds. Maybe you need to reconnect with people you haven’t seen in awhile, or maybe you need new friends. You can reset things now and change your focus.

If you’ve never had your true chart done using sidereal astrology, you can book a reading with me here.

Venus rules the sign of Libra, and unfortunately she’s not in a great position in the sign of Scorpio. In fact, most of the planets are in challenging signs OR retrograde, so now is a time to get organized rather than doing planetary Magick.

Mars and Pluto are in perfect opposition too at 4° Cancer/Capricorn. This means confrontation and potential violence. I don’t want to overly alarm anyone, BUT it’s best right now to turn the other cheek and avoid trouble with other people. This will be happening through the election and for much of November. On the good side, Pluto demands evolution and reformation, so you can rebirth yourself powerfully. Mars opposition to Pluto can move mountains and help you do the impossible, calling upon inexhaustible resources of energy. As an evolutionary planet, Pluto ultimately demands evolution and this may be a key theme over the next four weeks.
