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.

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 14 Virgo
Mercury DIRECT at 15 Virgo (exalted)
Venus at 15 Libra (rulership, good for Venus magick)
Mars at 20 Gemini
Jupiter at 26 Taurus
Saturn RETROGRADE at 19 Aquarius (rulership)
Uranus RETROGRADE at 1 Taurus
Neptune RETROGRADE 3 Pisces (rulership)
Pluto RETROGRADE at 4 Capricorn
North Node at 11 Pisces

We have moved into October, placing us firmly in harvest season! TODAY we have a New Moon Solar Eclipse at 15° Virgo. If you have any planets in your chart near 15° Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius or Pisces, they are being activated in a big way. If you’ve never had your true chart done using sidereal astrology, you can book a reading with me here.

Mercury is there too, conjunct the Sun at 15° Virgo. This is an exceptionally “Airy” new moon. All the energy is focused on language, the Mind, communication, honesty, truth, writing, community and focus. However, because it’s an ECLIPSE, the energies can be blocked. We need to take a step forward in a brand new direction today to access the gifts of this cycle. With the energy happening in Virgo, organizing our lives, rolling up our sleeves and getting to work are the best uses of our time.

Mars in Gemini is also throwing immense energy into the mix, since Mars is “drive” and Gemini is another Air sign. In Gemini, Mars lets go of his armor and becomes a social butterfly, focusing on communication, solving puzzles and battles of strategy. People with anxiety might need extra support during this time, because Mars adds electricity to our nervous system. A good place to focus your attention is on freedom and liberation. Where do you need to set yourself free? Let yourself off the hook? Have some FUN and adventures? This transit is spectacular for studying a new subject, or applying your mind to solve any type of challenge.

Week of July 15th: Mars conjunct Uranus

TODAY, July 15th, 2024 we have a conjunction between Mars and Uranus, just 1/2 a degree apart, at 0° Taurus.⁠ This is a significant aspect that last occurred in 1936! Because it’s at the start or seed of Taurus (0°), current developments will set the tone for awhile.

We are finally getting “unstuck”, and energy is opening up! If you’ve been in limbo in some corner of your life, you’ll find renewed energy and clarity about how to move forward.

This aspect could lead to sudden changes and shifts, especially in areas related to Taurus, such as money, values, and environment.

Thus in fear and trembling the Superior person sets their life in order and examines themself.~ The I Ching (hexagram 51) 

⁠⁠This conjunction gives us the courage to stand up and stand out; to demand the freedom to live your own life. It is a restless and excitable aspect. In an atmosphere in which many are feeling stuck, Mars/Uranus can be the catalyst to get us un-stuck, and to see things in a whole new light.

Uranus conjunct Natal Venus Transit: Impact on Houses

When Uranus conjuncts your natal Venus in a transit, it signifies a period of significant and often unexpected changes in your love life, relationships, and personal values. Uranus is the planet of innovation, unpredictability, and liberation, and its conjunction with Venus, which represents love, relationships, and aesthetic preferences, can bring about a range of effects. Here’s a general overview of what this transit might entail:

Sudden and Unexpected Love: One of the most common manifestations of Uranus conjunct Venus is the sudden onset of romantic feelings or relationships. You may find yourself attracted to someone unexpectedly, and this connection can be intense and electric.

Liberty in Love: This transit encourages you to seek more personal freedom and independence within your relationships. You may question traditional relationship structures and seek to redefine the way you express love and affection.

Unconventional Partnerships: Uranus encourages you to embrace unconventional partnerships. You might be attracted to people who are unique, eccentric, or have a non-conformist approach to life. Existing relationships may undergo changes to accommodate new and innovative dynamics.

Personal Values and Desires: Your personal values and desires may undergo a transformation. You could find yourself drawn to new interests, hobbies, or forms of self-expression that challenge your previous preferences. This is a time of personal evolution and self-discovery.

Breaking Free from Restriction: Uranus conjunct Venus often signifies a desire to break free from any restrictions or limitations in your love life. This could involve ending relationships that feel confining or taking bold steps to pursue the kind of love and pleasure that aligns with your authentic self.

Artistic and Aesthetic Innovation: Venus also represents art and aesthetics. During this transit, you may explore new and avant-garde forms of artistic expression. Your taste in art and beauty may evolve, and you may appreciate unconventional aesthetics.

Financial Changes: Venus is associated with finances, so this transit can also bring unexpected financial changes. Be prepared for financial surprises, both positive and negative, and consider making adjustments to your financial strategies.

Social Transformation: Your social circle may undergo shifts as you gravitate toward people who share your progressive views on love and relationships. You might lose connections with those who resist your newfound sense of individuality and independence.

Embracing Self-Love: Uranus conjunct Venus can prompt you to explore self-love and self-acceptance on a deeper level. You may come to appreciate your own uniqueness and prioritize your personal happiness and fulfillment.

Rebellion in Relationships: Some relationships may experience tension or conflict as you assert your desire for independence and non-conformity. Open and honest communication will be essential in navigating these challenges.

New and Exciting Experiences: This transit can lead to exciting and stimulating experiences in your love life and personal relationships. You may engage in adventurous activities and experiment with new forms of romance and intimacy.

Embracing Change: Overall, Uranus conjunct Venus encourages you to embrace change and personal growth in the realm of love and personal values. While the unpredictability of Uranus can be unsettling, it also offers opportunities for greater authenticity, excitement, and fulfillment in your relationships and personal life.

Saturn RETROGRADE at 21 Aquarius (rulership)

The Sun moved into Virgo on Monday, heralding the beginning of harvest season! The transition from Leo to Virgo is profound. With the Sun in Leo, we reveled in our true identity, and practiced new ways of expressing it to the world; now with Virgo we organize our lives and get to work.

Moon wise, we are in the last quarter of the Moon’s cycle, preparing for the New Moon in Virgo this Saturday the 27th. The week ahead is about wrapping things up, resolving issues, paying debts, and reflecting on our lives.

Mars entered Gemini on Saturday for the next seven months! That’s March 2023! In Gemini, Mars lets go of his armor and becomes a social butterfly, focusing on communication, solving puzzles and battles of strategy. People with anxiety might need extra support during this time, because Mars adds electricity to our nervous system. A good place to focus your attention for the next seven months is on freedom and liberation. Where do you need to set yourself free? Let yourself off the hook? Have some FUN and adventures? This transit is spectacular for studying a new subject, or applying your mind to solve any type of challenge.

Thursday, August 25th: Moon in Leo, and Mercury moves into Libra, the great balancer. Relationships of all kinds will be blessed this month with real understanding and progress between people. Mercury in Libra makes us aware of all sides of a situation, especially the viewpoints of others. The key is balance. Also today, we are in the darkest phase of the monthly moon cycle, preparing for rebirth this Saturday with the New Moon in Virgo. Lots of old feelings and issues could be coming up so we can release them.

Week of July 25th

Sun at 2 Leo
Mercury DIRECT at 10 Leo
Venus at 8 Cancer
Mars at 12 Taurus
Jupiter at 9 Aries
Saturn RETROGRADE at 23 Aquarius (rulership)
Neptune RETROGRADE 25 Pisces (rulership)
Pluto RETROGRADE at 27 Capricorn
North Node at 18 Taurus

The Sun moved into Leo last Friday, entering his home kingdom. The Sun is in his natural element in Leo, and shines his brightest! Now is the time to do Sun magick if you have the inclination. Focus on leadership and lead with you heart. Helping other people shine, is the best use of this energy. This week we are still in the 4th quarter of the Moon. We rest and wrap things up, all in preparation for the rebirth of the New Moon in Leo this Thursday.

Leo is our identity, and we discover who we are THROUGH being creative. What are you creating? What do you enjoy doing? We see ourselves through our play, our hobbies and crafts, our songs, and through our children. If you are still feeling a little lost from all the massive changes last year, try creating something. You will see yourself in that creation.

There’s a lot of big aspects this week. Uranus and the Moon’s North Node (destiny) are conjunct at 18° Taurus on Tuesday, which really stirs things up and creates new opportunities for the path forward. Many unexpected developments and events can pop up out of nowhere, sending you in a different direction. Mercury square Mars can raise tensions and road rage, so be calm while driving. And further out, Saturn is moving towards another square with Uranus. It’s happening now, but will be exact on October 23rd and will reignite some of the tensions from last year.

Wednesday, July 27th: Moon in Cancer goes void at 5:54pm Pacific, so stay home tonight and spoil yourself. With Jupiter standing still in the sky preparing to go retrograde tomorrow, indulgences abound. Go to the spa and eat whatever you want. Also today, Mercury in Leo trines Chiron-the-healer in Aries. There could be information, results or progress concerning a mental, emotional or physical health issue. Your inner voice is talking to you all the time, letting you know what you need.

Thursday, July 28th: New Moon in Leo at 10:55am Pacific indicates the start of a new lunar cycle. Let your creativity wander alongside your imagination. Focus on you, because you have gold to share. You have a rare and intrinsic quality that no one else has on the planet! Also, Jupiter Retrograde begins! Is life sending you in a new direction? Embrace it and go with the flow. Revelations abound.

Full Moon Halloween

Happy Witches New Year! Full Moon at 7:49am Pacific Halloween morning. A Full Moon in Taurus is sensual, exalted, indulgent and grounded. Normally we would go for nature hikes and eat comfort food, but Uranus is conjunct (together) with this Full Moon which brings revolutionary changes. Your eyes will be opened this weekend, and revelations will fill your mind. It will feel good because you’ll have some questions finally answered that have been hanging around for the last couple of years.

Uranus (awakening) first went into the sign of Taurus in May 2018, and it’s shaken up our perspectives on money, family, health and self esteem. Uranus hasn’t been in Taurus since the 1930’s, and it will be there for a few more years. Tomorrow’s full moon brings this transit front and center, so you can clearly see how Uranus in Taurus is effecting your life. You can see what this time is about.

The full moon today clarifies a new sense of self worth and value, and brings the start of a new life. The Scorpio Sun clarifies your internal boundaries, and shows where you personally draw the line to protect your new, inherent value.

Mercury in a perfect square to Saturn suggests you will turn a corner in how you communicate from your new, personal reality; AND the Sun opposes Uranus, which underlines self liberation. Any person or situation that challenges your new perspective will be released. We’ve made a decision to change on the inside, and it will have a positive effect on how we live in the world.

Gen X

the_breakfast_club_3

Fun article on Generation X. We’re all middle aged now! As an astrologer, I find it interesting to watch my generation as they travel through life. We are meant to shake things up. We were born during the tumultuous 1960’s, when Uranus and Pluto were in a conjunction in Virgo. We are redefining technology, communication, service, health, habits, and what it means to achieve a dream.

“The tech, music, style, books, trends, rules, films and pills that made Gen X … so so-so.”

“Like many things considered “cool,” Gen X is pretty exclusive. You had to be born between 1965 and 1980 to get in to this gloomy, goofy club of forgotten middle children, and only about 65 million of us were. (Both boomers, at 75 million, and millennials, at 83 million, far outnumber us.)

The idea behind that “X” was about coming between. Gen X supposedly didn’t know what they were, or what they wanted. All they knew, they were told, was what they didn’t want — marriage, money, success — and then they shrugged and popped a Prozac.

And you know what else Gen X is? Getting older. Its oldest members are 54; its youngest are preparing for 40. As we try to make sense of that fact, here’s a look at the stuff we loved and hated, as well as a re-evaluation of things like “The Rules,” grunge, CK One and 1994; an appreciation of John Singleton; a quiz to figure out which generation you actually are; and a visit with Evan Dando, plus some dynamite for the myths that have always dogged Gen X. So put on your headphones, click on that Walkman below (surprise!) and let’s travel through this time machine together.” — Anya Strzemien

Monday, Nov. 5th: Moon in Libra, Sun in Scorpio. We are in the dark of the Moon, preparing for the New Moon in Scorpio this Wednesday. Avoid confrontations, keep your focus on your work and personal life. With Venus retrograding near the Moon, it’s not a good day air grievances. Practice self care.

Tuesday, Nov. 6th:
Moon into Scorpio at 5:02am Pacific
Uranus into Aries at 11am
North Node into Cancer
Avoid social complications, drive slowly and keep a cool head. We are in the orb of the New Moon in Scorpio, and it’s a good time to set some intentions on the part of your life that needs deep healing or rebirth. What is your passion? Also, the North/South nodes (Head and Tail of the Dragon) shift into Cancer and Capricorn for the next two years.

Wednesday, Nov. 7th: New Moon in Scorpio at 8:02am Pacific. REBIRTH. The phoenix rises from the ashes. The corner of your chart where Scorpio resides is experiencing a regeneration today that will culminate in April 2019. Watch for signs.

Thursday, Nov. 8th:
Jupiter into Sagittarius at 4:38am
Moon into Sagittarius at 11:59am
The mood will lighten quite a bit today towards expansiveness and adventure. Excellent day to seek justice and fairness.

Friday, Nov. 9th: Moon in Sagittarius. A light and jovial end to an intense week. Good evening to go out, have fun and try something new.

Saturday, Nov. 10th: Moon in Sagittarius. The mood turns towards responsibilities today as the Moon heads towards Capricorn.

Astro week of August 5th

@lefawnhawk

This week is the 4th quarter of the Moon, the “darkest” time of our current lunar month.  This week we rest and wrap things up; all in preparation for the rebirth of the New Moon in Leo this coming Saturday.  It will be another eclipse too.  If you go out at sunset each night this week, you will see the moon’s light diminish until she completely disappears into the fiery light of the Sun.  Don’t overschedule yourself or work too hard. Take some afternoon naps. Focus on finishing things – next week is the time to start new projects or habits.

Monday, August 6 – Moon in Gemini (Mercury still retrograde), Venus into Libra and Uranus stationing. Lots of energy, communication and ideas flying around today. Be slow and thorough, and handle one thing at a time. Don’t get caught up in other peoples’ instability. Venus in Libra is very happy! Do some art or hang with friends.

Tuesday, August 7 – Moon void of course in Gemini all day, and Uranus retrograde in Taurus. Stay home if you can or work in your garden. Today could be really crazy, with lots of unstable changes happening all around you. Careful while driving or on transport. Keep slowing yourself down and doing one thing at a time. Don’t act on impulse this week.

Wednesday, August 8 – Moon in Cancer. Spoil yourself. Go to a spa. Eat whatever you want. Uranus still stationing overhead, so avoid social conflicts. Connect with your inner voice, and hear what it’s telling you. Is life sending you in a new direction? Embrace it and go with the flow. Revelations abound. Don’t overspend.

Thursday, August 9 – Moon void of course in Cancer all day. Avoid important negotiations or conversations. Today is NOT the day for a house meeting. Keep a cool head and a discerning heart. FOCUS ON YOUR OWN LIFE. Let your creativity wander.

Friday, August 10 – New Moon in Leo begins. A splendid day. Allow yourself all the pleasures available. Assume leadership if needed and tackle responsibilities. Let your light shine. Good night to see a performance.

Saturday, August 11 – New Moon eclipse in Leo at 2:58am. Be creative, hang out with family and children, and let your light shine some more.
