Tuesday, April 24th, 2012Bear with me on this one. Mercury, the winged messenger and planet of communication in the sign of fiery, courageous Aries has traveled from Uranus, planet of awakening and revolution to meet Pluto, planet of power and Lord of the underworld in the sign of Big Business, Big Government, and the establishment (Capricorn). Or more [...]
Finish Up What You Started
Friday, April 20th, 2012Today, actions speak louder than words. Use the energy of the Aries moon to finish things up this morning. In the event you run into opposition at Moon’s opposition to Saturn at 3:35pm (Eastern), don’t buck ‘City Hall,’ just let it go. Consider the transit as a natural bookend to the end of the work-week [...]
Fire and Earth
Thursday, April 19th, 2012It’s easy to chomp at the bit with Moon and Mercury in high energy, passionate Aries. Indulging in physical activity is an excellent outlet, not to mention good for the waistline. Currently in high energy, passionate Aries until the weekend, we get to experience the beautiful combination of fire and earth when Sun moves into [...]
High Enthusiasm
Wednesday, April 18th, 2012After a languid morning, energy and enthusiasm pick up when Moon moves into Aries at 11:59 am (Eastern). With both Sun and Moon in Aries it is easy to get carried away. Hoof in mouth disease is a danger because it is just too easy to let words slip out before considering their impact on [...]
Jet Fuel and Red Flags
Thursday, March 22nd, 2012Sure I knew that this Aries new moon was going to wake and shake people up, but did I mention that the energy was akin to pouring jet fuel into a burning building? Electric Uranus was in the mix, acting a bit like adding charcoal fluid to a raging storm as if the fire needed [...]
The Season of New Beginnings is Here, But Not Quite Yet
Tuesday, March 20th, 2012This morning, March 20th at 1:15 am Eastern (March 19th 10:15 pm Pacific), the Sun enters Aries and calendar spring officially begins. This marks the Earth’s awakening from its winter sleep (if you live in the northern hemisphere). Although this year, at least in the northeastern US, spring’s weather has come quite a bit early. [...]
Engage Brain Before Engaging Mouth
Saturday, March 3rd, 2012As I was going about my tasks this morning my thoughts drifted to a woman in my workplace who tends to be critical–of others, not herself–and is not only vocal about sharing her criticism, but abrasive in her delivery. I have been employed in many work places and, like the water cooler, such a person [...]
Meditation on March
Thursday, March 1st, 2012The days are getting noticeably longer. The afternoons are warmer and buds are appearing on the branches of some trees. We’re moving into March, but in this locale it is premature to put away the snow shovels. Yes, it’s been a mild winter, but Philadelphia has seen the March blizzard… This time of year, when [...]
A Tale of Two Months
Sunday, May 15th, 2011Today energy shifts in a big way. The month began with five planets in frenetic,fiery, take-no-prisoners Aries. However, this past Monday, Mars, Aries ruler shifted into sedate, stand-your-ground Taurus. Before this day ends, both Mercury, planet of communication and Venus, planet of love, partnership, attraction and money, shift into Taurus where they will join Mars [...]
Beware of April’s Undercurrents
Wednesday, March 30th, 2011With five planets in Aries, April 2011 begins like a cannon blast. Everything starts to move and everyone is chomping at the bit to take action. Jupiter, the planet of excess joins with the New Moon on April 3rd with feisty Mars and erratic Uranus coupling together. With Mercury moving retrograde it is just too [...]
