Astro-insights: Saturn square Neptune, red herring season starts now

Astrological Insight : In the last days pleasurable activity and group identity have been tainted by violence. I am thinking of the dreadful events at Euro 2016 and the attack on the LBGT community in Orlando. Mercury opposite Mars always had the potential to be tricky… last week I spoke of ‘words as weapons’ unfortunately though words no doubt moved to action – the physical (Taurus) violence (Scorpio) was all too real. I am once again reminded of the importance of the stations of the outer planets. While Neptune’s station yesterday, left the collective focusing … Lees verder

Astro-Insights: Mercury opposite Mars, digging up old arguments…

Astrological Insight :  In my previous astro-insight, I mentioned that yesterday’s New Moon was conjunct with Pluto by antiscion. Well, it certainly brought some controversial news stories!  Pluto is very closely linked to genetic engineering and it had just entered Sagittarius (a sign closely related to research and ethics) when Dolly the sheep was cloned! One of the major news stories yesterday was about the genetic manipulation of pigs in order to ‘farm’ human organs! George Orwell would turn in his grave. Astrological Insight : This new monthly cycle begins under the auspicious conjunction of … Lees verder

Astro Insight: Gemini New Moon – Winners and Losers

Astrological Insight : There’s an awful lot to play for this week & the stakes are high. Two major astrological currents coincide: some people might feel forced take sides others might prefer to hedge their bets. But I think this week will bring some clear winners and losers. Astrological Insight : The first major current flows right into the heart of the astrological configuration that has dominated the collective since September 2015. I am talking of course of the mutable t-square – with Saturn in Sagittarius as focal planet. Mutable energy is diffuse, changeable, chameleon … Lees verder

Astrological Insight: Mutual Reception Venus/Mercury means creativity abounds

Astrological Insight : As the week beings, Mercury is coming out of station and is starting to gather momentum. Today, Monday, late afternoon, the Moon in freedom loving Sagittarius trines Uranus in bold and fearless Aries. My thoughts are with a Dutch astrologer and friend of mine, whose nephew is committing euthanasia this afternoon on his 36th birthday. Mercury has many roles – an important and often forgotten role – is that of pyschopomp – or one who conducts the souls of the dead to Hades. Mercury still holds the grand earth trine together. This … Lees verder

Astrological Insight: Mercury in Taurus, fools rush in where angels fear to tread

Astrological Insight :On Friday the Sun moves into Gemini and this week things slowly start to gather momentum. Gemini is a quick witted, wily, intelligent sign – and its ruler Mercury will turn direct on Sunday. Jupiter currently transiting the other Mercury ruled sign Virgo – is also moving in the right direction. So what has the power to move us now ? Grand ideas, big plans (Jupiter) that require some patience and persistence to get off the ground (Mercury in Taurus). What we are looking for collectively and individually are means that enable us … Lees verder

Astrological Insight: Mercury transit the Sun & the Grand Earth Trine DE-LUXE

Astrological Insight : Jupiter goes direct today (Monday) and plans that have been brewing since early January either scatter or begin to crystallize. There is a lot of earth around now – and earth is about making things concrete and real. Jupiter in Virgo – has a great eye for detail and is renowned for its practical hands on commitment to helping others.  Personally, I think the real, REAL momentum will start to build up from September, when Jupiter moves into Libra and allies itself with Saturn. Now… opportunity lies in the re-organization of the … Lees verder

Astrological Insights: Grand Earth Trine offers back door exit

Astrological Insight : I get a good feeling when looking at the positions of the planets this coming week. This has everything to do with the notion of balance and harmony. Since autumn 2015 when Jupiter opposed Neptune – the energy of the mutable cross has determined the collective sphere. Mutable effectively means opportunism, adaptability and the ability to shift, move and react to circumstances that are constantly morphing into something else. Mutability excels in uncertainty. We have just lived through an unprecedented collective 7x Uranus/Pluto square and the fall-out has been huge: some structures … Lees verder

Astrological Insights: Mercury Retrograde, deciding what we really, REALLY, want

Astrological Insight : Looking at the chart wheel for this Monday morning – my eye immediately fell on the besieged Moon. A planet is besieged when it finds itself sandwiched between the two so called malefics, Mars and Saturn. My once teacher John Frawley said it was like being stuck between a rock and a hard place: not a comfortable place to be. Of old, the Moon in mundane astrology has related to the people. My son’s announcement (he has the ascendant in 8 Sag) that he was driving to a theme park on the … Lees verder

Astrological Insight: Saturn offers Venus mature advice- but will she take it?

Astrological Insight : The week begins with the Sun in the final degree of Aries. Because the natural force of Aries is all but spent, this is a critical point and the energy is tipped in the balance. In some ways it feels fitting that Mars, the ruler of Aries,  turned retrograde yesterday. It seems that pushing further forward now will not bring the desired results quickly. Late afternoon, Venus currently in passionate Aries makes a harmonious trine to retrograde Saturn in Sagittarius. One of the themes centers on the need to take responsibility for … Lees verder

Astrological Insight: This week’s grand earth trine & Mars retrograde station

Astrological Insight: Grand Earth Trine & Mars Retrograde Station Welcome… in the week that Mars stops dead in its tracks. This week Mars truly does grind to a halt and certain areas of the zodiac will feel this. Mars is a planet of force or drive, it can fire our ambition, our loins, our adrenaline, making us bold & ‘go get’, passionate and sexual, or stirring us to fight our corner. Again, some area of the birth chart (where is Mars transiting in your horoscope right now and what houses does it rule ??) will … Lees verder
