New Moon Solar Eclipse in Gemini May 20, 2012

Nothing quite like an eclipse to stir things up and this New Moon Solar Eclipse at 0° 21′ Gemini on 20 May at 4:47 PM PDT is sure to do just that! Given Gemini can carry on both sides of an argument all by themselves and with an already polarized atmosphere, everything from mild spats to knockdown drag out fights may occur.

Whilst there is a possibility the square from dreamy Neptune in Pisces to the New Moon will promote peace and goodwill, I can’t help but think there is a far [...]

Full Moon in Scorpio May 5, 2012

This is one of the most magical, powerful lunations of the year in my opinion and at 16° 01′ Scorpio on 5 May 2012, 08:35 PM PDT this Full Moon is no exception. Even though Earth always conjoins the Moon when it is full, if Earth is the ruler of Taurus it makes this a very special lunation indeed.

There is nothing ephemeral about the Full Moon in Scorpio. It is very real, passionate and deeply involved with life in the most essential ways – birth, death and regeneration. The old [...]

New Moon in Taurus, April 21, 2012

A small oasis of calm will descend on the New Moon at 01° 35′ Taurus on 21 April 2012, 12:18 AM PDT. This will be a very welcome change for anyone left feeling bashed about by Mars and Mercury stationing direct recently.

Enhancing Taurus New Moon’s naturally fertile, earthy nature is a conjunction with Ceres in Taurus, making this coming weekend the perfect time to schedule a visit to your favorite spa. Get a lovely massage, take nature walks or just hang out by the pool sipping soothing drinks. In touchy feely Taurus, Ceres [...]

Observations: Those Outer Planet Stations wear us down

© Stephanie Pui-Mun Law

Yesterday Pluto in Capricorn stationed retrograde and had already spent roughly a month and a half at 9°. When the Outer Planets – Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto – slow to station either retrograde or direct, they end up sitting in one place for anywhere from six weeks to three months. This can feel like someone’s drilling a hole in your psyche . . . sloooowly and painfully.

Now the inner planets spend far less time on one degree ranging from a week for Mercury to two weeks for Venus and Mars. Jupiter, [...]

Full Moon in Libra, April 6, 2012

Ordinarily the Full Moon at 17° 23′ Libra on 6 April 2012, 12:20 PM PDT, favors sitting down to talk over relationship issues with your partner but not this one. Unfortunately lovely Venus in Gemini squares an uncomfortable Mars in Virgo and both are involved in a T-Square with elusive Neptune. Between uncertain tempers, jealousy and a good possibility that the facts will be in short supply, resolving differences is NOT going to be easy.

Libra’s ruler, Venus, leaves easy going Taurus for Gemini on 3 April and is on her way [...]
