Observations: Full Moon at 29 Degrees Follow-up

I got some sharp reminders why it is very important to maintain a strict routine with diet and supplements or risk throwing my system out of balance . . . with unpleasant results. I felt so lousy on Friday I thought I would have to cancel a long planned out-of-town visit but fortunately I felt much better in the morning so off we went.

Reviewing the impact of this lunation on my natal chart is illuminating with the Full Moon on the cusp of my sixth house and the Sun conjoining the cusp of the twelfth. Clearly I [...]

Scorpio – The Power to Transform

It is Scorpio season once more and there is a bite in the air. The Sun has entered my twelfth house with Mercury to follow on Wednesday and I find myself contemplating Scorpio’s signature ability of transformation in relation to the Neptune/twelfth house problem of addiction and dependency.

Even with all my twelfth house planets, supposedly a sure sign of a weakness for drugs and alcohol, I am not an addictive personality. That is not to say I haven’t been addicted to various things over the years because I have. I smoked cigarettes for over twenty [...]

Saturday Extra: Libra and Leo – No Problems, Right?

For a change of pace I decided to do a short post on synastry in response to a reader’s question. She is Libra Sun and her boyfriend is a Leo – very fitting, with Venus having just returned to her home sign and Mars arriving in Leo yesterday.

Ms. Libra asks why her Leo boyfriend has her so baffled all the time when their synastry seems quite good at first glance. Fiery Leo is usually very appreciate of charming Libra.

This is a good example of why it’s important to move past Sun signs for understanding how we relate [...]

Aries Ingenuity

Jilly asked to see this device my Aries made for stretching out the lumbar area of the spine. A friend had one on loan from a chiropractor and he measured it carefully before making this one. The materials are almost all salvalged from what we had on hand, cut to fit and painted. My contribution were the cushioned parts.

How it works: you straddle the area between the two cushions, lean forward on the black cushion and hook your knees around the round yellow one. You grasp the two extensions below the black cushion and pull [...]

New Moon in Scorpio, October 28, 2008

Moon against the trees

 The power and mystery of Scorpio moves onto the scene with the New Moon on Tuesday at 5°54′ Scorpio and is enhanced by the presence of Mars, co-ruler of Scorpio along with Pluto.

If we consider the combination of the New Moon’s sense of being pregnant with possibilities and Scorpio’s capacity for regeneration, we begin to get an idea of what is ahead. Of course, since it is Scorpio in charge, it’s very likely something will have to be released or die before the new can emerge.

The Sun and Moon essentially are unaspected by the other planets, but [...]
