Observations: Fun Saturn-Sun Transits

Saturn in Libra is drawing ever closer to my 29° Libra Sun and even though the transit won’t be exact until January 2012, this transit is increasingly on my mind. This will be the third time over the course of my life Saturn will conjoin my Sun. See what happens if you live long enough?!

My first experience of Saturn in Libra was about the time I started school as a very small, very shy five year old shoved into first grade (no pre-school or kindergarten in those days). On the plus side learning to read and write [...]

New Moon Solar Eclipse in Sagittarius, November 24, 2011

© Diane Lang

This could very well be the most positive, dynamic New Moon of the year at 2° 37′ Sagittarius on 24 November 2011, 10:09 PM PST due to a trine from Uranus in wild-eyed Aries and an inconjunct from Sagittarius’s ruler, Jupiter in cautious Taurus. We get extra razzle dazzle from this lunation because it is a Solar Eclipse, the first of a pair followed by a Lunar Eclipse Full Moon in Gemini on 10 December.

One thing I’m sure of is this New Moon will inspire people everywhere to get out and get moving. [...]

Observations: Contemplating Saturn and Life Cycles

© Diane Lang

There are the classic Saturn Cycles when transiting Saturn aspects natal Saturn and then there are Saturn Cycles aspecting other natal planets and Angles. Currently Saturn in Libra is spending a week on the midpoint between my Sun and Moon in Libra on its way to conjoining my Sun around the first of next year. A little over twenty years ago, Saturn was in Capricorn, squaring my Libra stuff – a time of major shifts and changes in my life!

During the year leading up to Saturn exactly squaring my Sun, I decided to [...]

We will have opportunities on this New Moon at 3° 39′ Scorpio on 26 October 2011, 12:56 PM PDT to remember why Scorpio deals with rebirth and regeneration rather the darker side of life often associated with the eighth sign of the zodiac. Please recall the many wonderful healers and caregivers born with Scorpio prominent in their charts also.

Jupiter in fecund Taurus sits opposite the New Moon and Pluto (Scorpio’s ruler) in Capricorn adds richness and diversity via a supportive sextile. This is a very fruitful time to develop new ideas [...]

Full Moon in Aries, October 11, 2011

During Libra season we are more aware of the need for balance and this Full Moon at 18° 24′ Aries on October 11, 2011 07:05 PM PDT brings more fire into the sky. The New Moon had a pot load of Libra planets and a preponderance of air, so this fiery Full Moon introduces a sense of proportion . . . something Libra loves!

The sober conjunction of Saturn in Libra and the Sun is not going to let anyone forget the importance of reciprocity and compromise, even though the Moon [...]
