We begin to feel the pull of the final, exact opposition of Jupiter and Uranus this week, which demands independence but requires methodical planning and self-confidence. However, the waning Moon keeps most of the tension from the Jupiter-Uranus Opposition at bay for now. We are given ample opportunity to regain a sense of balance as last week's confusion abates. The Virgo Sun turns our attention to a much needed clean-up and re-organization. There is also a pleasant [...]
Mercury turns direct this week, trining Uranus, in an erratic, confusing and uncertain atmosphere. There is a strong feeling that we need to show off our independence. However, we also feel a building, emotional need to find somewhere where we belong — where we can be a part of something larger. Reconciling our independence with the need to belong requires trusted friends and alliances. If the desperation to find connections becomes too intense, we may find ourselves prone to trusting the wrong people. The mid-week Pisces Full Moon [...]
This week's overall atmosphere is increasingly stirred up by the build up to the Mars-Uranus trine, which will culminate on Saturday Morning. Now that Saturn is direct and in a helpful sextile with Jupiter, maintaining a balanced perspective seems more important but the Mars-Uranus energy keeps us 'amped up' with strong feelings of independence and a desire to forge our own path no matter what others think. Walking the tightrope [...]
This week brings the second Leo New Moon (August 21st, 11:30 AM PDT 28° Leo), continuing the journey of individuation that was initiated under the first Leo New Moon (July 23rd, 2:45 AM PDT 0° Leo). If we think of the last New Moon as the beginning of a gestation process, we can view this week's New Moon (and the notable Solar Eclipse that is visible in much of North America) as a birth process. The importance of [...]
We continue to carry the energy of last Monday's Full Moon (11:10 AM PDT 15° Aquarius/Leo) which had Mars pumping up our energy and confidence levels. Although that confidence may have begun to wane a bit with the waning Moon, this week's Sun-Saturn trine helps to shore up our resolve by gently nudging us towards a more methodical, deliberate and disciplined approach. Saturn is nearly [...]
