Observations: Aries vs Libra & the Importance of Dialogue

di•a•logue – an exchange of ideas or opinions on a particular issue, especially a political or religious issue, with a view to reaching an amicable agreement or settlement. To discuss areas of disagreement frankly in order to resolve them.

The opposition between Mars in Aries and Saturn in Libra started me thinking seriously of the need for meaningful, respectful dialogue, on both a personal level and in the collective as a whole. The Mercury-Mars conjunction in Aries underscored this with its tendency to shoot first and ask questions later.

Understanding how Aries and Libra complement each [...]

Observations: Aries Innovation – The Chicken Palace

© Diane Lang

My very Aries husband likes keeping busy and with work in short supply this past winter, he needed something to occupy him . . . therefore he finished building this wonderful chicken coop and run. In order to minimize expenses, he used building materials he had salvaged from other projects and old outbuildings he had dismantled around here. The results are wonderful!

Our Buff Orpington chicks arrived today and they are sooooo cute! Since they were hatched within the last forty-eight hours, they are all little Aries with Virgo Moons hens [...]

Observations: Further Thoughts on the Aries Avalanche

Not too surprisingly I have Aries on the brain and just want to relate some things I’m seeing happen to the Aries folk in my extended family. The intense Aries influence seems to manifest not only with intensity but FAST!

Full Moon in Virgo, March 19, 2011

© Diane Lang

Did you wake up with a case of buyer’s remorse? It may feel like it on the Full Moon at 28° 48″ Virgo, 11:10 AM PDT on March 19, 2011, a week after Uranus blew into Aries causing many to rediscover risk taking.

Uncertainty levels are high with both the Pisces Sun and Virgo Moon making uneasy aspects to foggy ole Neptune, intensifying the mutable tendency to dither when under pressure. Neptune is sitting at 29° Aquarius, culminating his journey in that detached sign representing the collective before moving into Pisces on April 4. [...]

New Moon in Aries, April 14, 2010

Typically the New Moon in Aries is about launching new plans and preparing for liftoff and this one at 24° 27’ Aries on April 14, 2010 PDT is no exception but I do recommend double checking all the facts first.

The reason I’m suggesting caution is an inconjunct between Mars in Leo and Pluto in Capricorn (Mars rules Aries) as well as an inconjunct between Saturn newly returned to Virgo and Chiron conjoined Neptune in Aquarius. Inconjuncts can easily lead to misunderstandings because the energies involved have so little in common.

First, a look at Mars in Leo inconjunct [...]
