Sunday, September 23rd, 2012Welcome to Autumn. Yesterday at 10: 49 am, the Sun crossed the equator, and the hours of daylight and darkness were equal. Now, in the northern hemisphere, the hours of darkness will increase and days will continue to shorten. The Autumn equinox is a crossraods. It warns us of the coming winter. During the first [...]

Wednesday, September 5th, 2012Slow and steady wins the race today as the Taurus moon continues to plod through the sign. Taurus is an Earth sign; earth signs are places where we find grounding; they promote practicality and common sense. Adding to the combination is Sun/Mercury in earthy Virgo and Pluto in Capricorn forming a triangle. All three Earth [...]
Ellen says: Weekend of August 25-26, 2012
Saturday, August 25th, 2012The Moon continues in happy Sagittarius and the planets are getting along with each other today promising a day of smooth sailing. Mars, planet of self-assertion and action forms a trine, an easy aspect to Neptune, Lord of the Oceans. It’s the weekend and time to get out and about in the pursuit of recreation, [...]
Ellen’s Two Cents: July 30, 2012
Monday, July 30th, 2012Part of us wants to remain in dreamland as the Moon waves to the sublime Neptune. Instead keep a notebook by the bed to record what you remember. Nonetheless, now that Moon has moved on to Capricorn, duty calls and it’s time to put the ol’ shoulder to the grindstone. Intensity ratchets up in the [...]
Ellen’s Two Cents: July 4, 2012 – Independence Day Edition
Wednesday, July 4th, 2012Happy Independence Day. Today features a lovely configuration designed to help you speak your mind. Mercury, planet of speech makes a trine, a harmonious exchange of energy with Uranus, the planet of fireworks. Fortunately Venus, planet of charm, tact and diplomacy, stands in the middle, ready to moderate to keep things from getting out of [...]
Ellen’s Two Cents: July 3, 2012
Tuesday, July 3rd, 2012The opportunity to release that which is dead and dying provides space for new life. Moon’s powerful conjunction with Pluto, Lord of the Underworld, brings up long buried emotional detritus. Honor your efforts and your past decisions even if the result was not up to your expectations. Examine your thoughts; the idle ones that just [...]
Ellen’s Two Cents: June 6, 2012
Wednesday, June 6th, 2012I hope you’ve gotten a chance to view the awesome spectacle of Venus’ transit across the Sun. If you missed it, you can view some great photos at nasa.gov. It’s been an eventful couple days, but today the heavens cool down and we are able to get down to business and focus on work that [...]
Ellen’s Two Cents: June 5, 2012: Venus Transit Edition
Tuesday, June 5th, 2012Lady Grace meets the 800 lb gorilla of the solar system today. Venus and Sun not only occupy the same degree of celestial longitude, but we have a rare occurrence that astronomers call “the Venus transit,” where the two planets are aligned so precisely that Venus actually appears to march in front of the Sun. [...]
Ellen’s Two Cents: May 14, 2012
Monday, May 14th, 2012Words when spoken from a place of truth can move mountains. This is especially true today when Mercury in powerful Taurus forms a triangle with Mars in earthy Virgo and Pluto in practical Capricorn. This configuration gives you the patience and focus to get to the bottom a persistent problem and clean it up once [...]
Ellen’s Two Cents: May 9, 2012
Wednesday, May 9th, 2012Everyone will come to their senses… maybe. Or maybe not. But today you will feel more grounded dealing with the nutcases who are your everyday family and work companions. Actually this is a day to be pulled in many directions with Moon first squaring Uranus, then trining Mars, and, by midday conjoining Pluto. Mars, Moon, [...]
