Lunar Eclipse May 24th and cosmic update

 

Greetings all!

 

Forgive me not telling you about the solar eclipse on May 10th. I have been busy with both my astrology and my psychotherapy practice. Excuses aside - here's the story on the current cosmic scene:

 

There were several strong solar flares in the middle of May, followed by an exact square between Uranus and Pluto (unpredictable, rapid events); and at the end of this week (May 24) there's a Super Moon eclipse. This all adds up to a banquet of cosmic goodies and a massive download of overwhelm for us mere Earthlings (the Oklahoma tornado a case in point). If you can, take time to rest and listen in.

 

You'll want to tune into your personal channel as this full moon eclipse highlights information, perception and truth.

 

This lunar eclipse occurs in the sign of personal truth - Sagittarius (at 4°). On the other side of the chart is Mercury in an exact conjunction with Venus (19° Gemini) and very close to abundant Jupiter. It's a stellar chart! You might recall that Mercury is the ruling planet of the sign of Gemini and that Venus is the ancient ruler of Gemini. This top heavy Gemini energy brings the magic of the trickster to life. Words, and your ability to convey them, can be as light as beautiful feathers or as dense of clods of earth. You get to master your speech during this time.

 

It's also a time to integrate the other side. You know that Gemini is both Castor and Pollux, the twins, one mortal, the other immortal who both have to share the one space. Is there room in your mind (this is all quite mental) for another point of view? Can you open your mind to another philosophy (Moon in Sagittarius)? The Sabian Symbol, or image, for 4° Sagittarius is "an owl in a tree". Wise old owl sees all. Nothing is hidden at this time, the truth emerges as always.

 

In the broadest scheme of things this truth can lead to profound personal transformation. After all, powerful Pluto is in a tense aspect with rebel Uranus. You can change! You might even want to! This aspect lasts until 2015 so you have plenty of time, but do be sure to let this eclipse open the windows of your perception. Let the cool, clear winds of enlightenment enhance your journey here on Earth. There really is nothing to hold on to.

 

Dulce

 

P.S. These are GREAT days for Geminis. With the Sun, Mercury, Venus and abundant Jupiter in their sign the skies the limit! Call for your birthday reading - you will be very happy with it!

 

 

 

Partial Lunar Eclipse April 25th

 

The partial lunar eclipse April 25th in the sign of Scorpio highlights your earthy possessions and desires. Active Mars conjuncts the steady (indulgent, stubborn?) Taurus Sun and opposes the Moon (emotions) and stern Saturn (lessons) in sexy (jealous, vindictive?) Scorpio. What's a lover to do when confronted with the obstacles and losses this full moon presents? Stay grounded. Practice gratitude. Remain focused.

 

This painting of the Buddhist Goddess White Tara reminds us that, according to Buddha, desire leads to suffering. All Scorpio energy contains the element of desire and this Full Moon is in the sign of Scorpio. Observe your desires and see if they serve you or control you.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Aries New Moon April 10, 2013

 

The Aries New Moon April 10th invites radical self-awareness. Aries is the sign of the warrior and there are many present at this lunar gathering. Feisty Mars is there, glorious in his Arian robes; Eris, Goddess of Conflict (AKA the uninvited guest) and Venus, striking in battle dress. This powerful cosmic line-up gives you vital courage to create your own path - to go your own way. Pay attention to your own affairs. Stand strong in who you are. We are all part of the One. Be the part you are.

The warrior in me bows to the warrior in you.

Libra Full Moon March 27, 2013

 

The Moon comes to fullness early morning Wednesday March 27th. With it comes the opportunity for big, new frontiers. You may feel like going it alone as there are four celestial bodies in independent Aries, yet the Moon in balanced Libra encourages cooperation. Unexpected luck and love abound thanks to lady love Venus flirting with the Sun, crazy Uranus, and her boyfriend, handsome Mars resplendent in his fiery Arian robes.

Two Yods (for the astrology students out there) point to Pluto and Saturn suggesting that evolutionary impulses are at work. It's time to push through to new ideas and ways of thinking (thanks to Jupiter in Gemini). Your best stance now is progressive. Make something new! Stay alert! It's a little wild out there and not everyone is paying attention.

 

 

 

 

Spring Equinox March 20, 2013

 


Spring Equinox March 20 could be the beginning of your future life. Cosmic electricity is off the charts and the potential for shock and awe is strong. Your serene emotions, and sweet faith in love and peace, are the embryonic fluids that birth your vision. Be like lotus - bloom no matter what happens.

Be careful out there folks! The threshold on stress is low for some people and they may come apart at the seams. Jesus' words "they know not what they do" is a helpful mantra at this time. Take nothing personally!

 

For the astrologers out there here's the line up: Sun, Mars, Uranus conjunct in Aries in T square with Pluto in Capricorn and waxing Moon in Cancer. Aries planets sextile Jupiter in Gemini. Mercury, Chiron and Neptune conjunct in Pisces trine Saturn in Scorpio. Venus enters Aries next day.

 

 

February and March 2013

 



Dear friends,

I write this (February 13) as the moon begins its waxing journey. It will come to fullness February 25th in the sign of Virgo. If you’re hearing or reading this news past that date, know that the energy of that Full Moon will resonate for some time. This is because the sky is full of Pisces energy, the sign of the fish. Pisces is a water sign and water holds resonance, light and electrical charge naturally and easily. It takes time to tune into Pisces energy and once having accessed it, it takes time to leave it. You have the time you need to access this mystical plane as Mercury, the planet of communication retrogrades in Pisces from February 22nd to March 18th, giving you a window of opportunity in which to find the still, silent, memories within.

Pisces asks that you throw away your watch. That you sit by the window sipping tea. Pisces loves to day dream, to paint, to escape inside to that lyrical world of fantasy and the sometimes sad and regretful world of the past.

The past lives inside Pisces. Pisces holds the past. Every memory, every regret, every joy, every kiss and bitter betrayal are held in Pisces. Be mindful that during this Mercury retrograde (February 22nd to March 18th) you don’t fall into the primal soup of forgetting that is Pisces. Tune into your memories, certainly, but don’t allow yourself to disappear there. To disappear into pain, sadness and self-pity is Pisces shadow and it can lead to a powerful desire to escape through drugs or alcohol. Turn instead to Pisces strengths: meditation, prayer, connection to the Divine, art, music, and contemplation. Pisces is about BEING, while its opposite sign of Virgo is about service. Do yourself the great service of compassion, another beautiful Pisces quality, and banish all negative thinking from your inner world during this time.

At the Pisces New Moon March 11th give yourself and others the Pisces gift of forgiveness. What a great kindness it would be to the world if we allowed that to be. This is the New Moon of Dreams. It’s your special chance to dream up a fantasy you can live with over time. This comes with some pain and longing for nothing is perfect. But the more you meditate on the essence of your desires the purer your intent becomes. Take time to reflect and to rest deeply as the energy soon shifts and you don’t want to race toward an unknown destination unprepared.

March 20th the Sun follows Mars and enters Aries, the first sign. This begins a powerful new cycle one that takes the dreams and prayers you created while travelling through Pisces, and brings them into manifestation, much as a seed reaches for the surface of the Earth. Know what you're creating and tend to your inner garden like a vigilant and loving gardener.

Thanks for your interest! And please join Ramona and I as we follow up on these thoughts and others March 27th Kosmic Voices. KAFM 88.1 at 5:30 PM.

Dear friends, the light of our Sun has entered socially active Aquarius and remains there until February 18th. The next 28 days invite you to examine your relationships and to reconnect with the bond of friendship. We are all connected, aren’t we?

Cancer Full Moon - early morning Friday December 28, 2012
 


Dear friends,
These are powerful days. The turning of the tide of consciousness is moving us away from violence and greed and yet still random acts of insanity occur. The Cancer Full Moon Dec 28th invites you to find the suppressed anger within yourself and to willingly, with peace, let it go. Anger hurts. It hurts self and others. This Full Moon begs us to transcend self-indulgence and to see ourselves as being intimately connected with all beings and our Earth home. Step into your peaceful heart and rest there.
(Pluto conj Sun, oppose Moon, square Uranus. Mars in Aquarius)

 

 

 

Winter Solstice December 21, 2012

 

Dear friends,
The Sun enters Capricorn December 21st at 4:15 AM MST. This marks the winter solstice, the longest night of the year, and celebrates the return of the light (the Sun or the Son of God). It is also the end of the Mayan calendar and the precise alignment of our solar system with the heart of the Milky Way – our cosmic home. This is a journey that has taken over 26,000 years to complete.

This deep, dark time invites your purest intent for wholeness. Allow yourself to align with your higher Self, just as our solar system aligns with its higher Self. Let your truth set you free under the waxing Aries Moon.

Blessings to each and every one of you during these sacred, holy days. Truly, we are all connected.

December 14, 2012 Sandy Hook Massacre

 

Dear friends, why did 20 little children and their adult teachers have to die? The awfulness of one's man's act has broken hearts across this country. Looking at the chart for 9:30 AM Newtown Connecticut, Friday Dec 14, 2012, we can see that this blow struck right at the heart of America’s chart. This disgusting, violence has thrown us into grief and forced us toward Spirit. It has forced us to search for meaning in a meaningless age. Here are the words of a father of one of the victims: http://abcnews.go.com/US/video/connecticut-shooting-tragedy-robbie-parker-17986590

 

The Moon (which represents mother, home, family, emotions) was conjunct powerful Pluto (planet of death and rebirth) and square Uranus, planet of the unexpected at the time of the shooting. The Moon gets to this spot every month, no big deal, but this time it activated the unstable energy inherit in the Pluto/Uranus square and dealt a blow to the heart of America – opposite our Cancer Sun and Jupiter. This country has been under cosmic stress since late 2009 and will continue to experience tension through to 2015. Random acts of violence continue to force us deeply into the meaning and intent of our culture and way of life. Can we afford to sacrifice more innocent lives on the altar of violence? Is this the consciousness we want to go into the New Age with? No! No!

Twenty little beings and their adult guardians show us that non-violence is the path we must go. Non-violence in our speech, our actions, our politics. Beloveds, this is the cruel gift of this heinous act – that we, the living, are to drop all violence, now. Accept the gift of these angels, least the loss of their lives be in vain.
 

 

December 13, 2012 Sagittarian New Moon

 


Dear friends, this week (Dec 13 1:41 AM MST) there's a sweet Sagittarian New Moon. It asks you to turn your sights upon your star - your path. Where are you going pilgrim? What secrets do you hold in your heart? Take a moment to honor what
you love for this is the path you follow.

The next day genius Uranus turns direct and begins activating the new dawn of consciousness. This is when we understand we are intrinsically part of the Earth and that our actions influence our biosphere and all other beings. It is the beginning of our positive symbiotic existence with our Earth home - our bigger state of being. And it is the end of the mindset and age of industry. 

 

 

 

November 28, 2012 GEMINI FULL MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE

 

Precise cosmic connections set this Gemini lunar eclipse on fire with an exact Pluto Mars conjunction (11/28/12, 7:46 AM MST). Become aware of your deepest motivations least you manifest them unconsciously. Black Moon Lilith conjuncts the full Moon inviting your hidden shadows to the table; and stern Saturn escorts Venus, steamy and silent in Scorpio. Keep yourself together even though multiple emotions, multiple views on the truth, flood through you. This is but a brief moment of release. In the meantime, see the Earth's weather patterns restored to a healthy state. The winter solstice will soon be here and with it the dawning of consciousness of our symbiotic relationship with our Earth home. Intention is everything!

Please see Lynne McTaggert's work on the Intention Experiment for how we can change the world by intending the same thing at the same time. We need snow here in Colorado. Let's see it falling! The power of our combined intent is nothing to laugh at. Read Rupert Sheldrake for an understanding of the morphic field of resonance and spend sometime with Brain Swimme's Powers of the Universe. We are children of light and we live on planet Earth. It is time to feel that connection again. It is time to be the stewards of this home. Take a look at the wheel of creation (Barbara Marx Hubbard) and see what gifts and offerings you can make at this coming winter solstice. What can you bring forward into the world?

 

 

 

 

  

November 13, 2012 New Moon Scorpio Solar Eclipse   

 

Dear Ones, prepare now for the total solar eclipse at the New Moon in Scorpio, Tuesday November 13th at 3:08 PM MST. This new beginning invites you to take an inward journey so you may focus intently on your deepest mystery. Notice how precious it all is, how sacred each breath, how cherished every spoken word of love. There are no guarantees in life, yet peace is possible in every moment.     

 

Election Insights
November 7,2012

 

The Moon, which rules the people, was over Pres. Obama's Leo Sun yesterday, giving him support and victory; while retrograde Mercury crossed the highest point of his chart. Mercury was retrograde when he was sworn in as President in January 20, 2009 indicating that he has to wade through much opposition and will continue to do so, at least initially.

Mitt Romney fought a good fight - especially at the first debate when transiting Mars activated his Moon/Jupiter - but generally the planets were not in his favor.

Perhaps these two good men can really, truly, cross the aisle and pull this divided country together. With Jupiter (dogma/opinion/belief) in the dualistic sign of Gemini until summer 2013, it’s going to take a lot of discourse. A few surprises lie ahead and my interpretation of the chart of the USA shows our focus is on food, farming and the growing of crops. Basic stuff. We are a Cancer country, our strength lies in our fertile land and our ingenuity.

Taurus Full Moon October 29, 2012

 


Monday's Full Moon accentuates your ability to attend to only so much at a time. Focus on your joys and pleasures, says gracious Venus floating through her home sign of Libra. Do it all, says perky Mercury from abundant Sagittarius, knowing that within the week he'll be on vacation (retrograde) leaving you scratching your head. Go, and go big, says Mars actively opposing huge Jupiter. The best advice comes from the Moon herself, steady in earthy Taurus and opposite stern Saturn. Be true to yourself, she says. Play by rules you can live with.


Shift coming! October 5th chatty Mercury enters secretive Scorpio followed hours later by stern Saturn. It's been 29 years since Saturn last visited Scorpio. What was happening in your life then? This shift invites you to deepen your journey. To seriously empower yourself and those around you. Ponder everything!

 

What's happening is that stern Saturn is visiting Pluto's
home sign of Scorpio and transformative Pluto is visiting Saturn's home sign of Capricorn. This is called mutual reception and it's a good thing. It's like trading houses with someone for a while, where both of you care for each other’s homes. It seems pretty clear that we're all connected, one way or the other.

Great cosmic news! Feisty Mars in now in fiery Sadge (October 6, 2012 to Nov 16, 2012) for his every-other-year visit. This brings athletic energy and optimism to every endeavor. Though do watch out that you don't overdo.
 

 

 

 

September 24, 2012

 

Friends, your speech and thoughts are very powerful. The Aries Full Moon this coming Saturday night (9/29/2012 at 9:18 MDT) opens the Matrix when you least expect it. It’s possible that your thoughts and words come to life and have consequences. Magic is a powerful thing. Wield it with conscious intent or glue your lips together until the energy passes!

 

 

 

August 30, 2012

 

Dear Ones,

The Pisces Full Moon (Friday 8/31) is tender and sweet. Travelling with intuitive Chiron and dreamy Neptune, the Moon makes us aware of how fragile we are and how delicately organized each member, each cell, each particle, dances in its own space, connected to one another. Be kind. Softness is an incredible strength.

August 22, 2012

 

Dear friends,

The Moon just met with Mars and Saturn talking seriously in the sign of Libra. These are the days of cooperation. It’s a strongly balanced integration of light and shadow, female and male, in form and without. This last is thanks to Chiron and Pisces swimming in the salty Pisces sea. The glory days of Leo yield to the order of Virgo. The Knight lies down his sword to gather in the harvest. The maiden, toiling in the field, is awakened.

 

Coming next.... Mars enters steamy Scorpio followed by stern Saturn looking for secrets and shadow....

 

You finish the story Oh creative One!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY USA!

Happy Birthday America! You are one sacred place. A Cancer with abundant Jupiter near your Sun you appear limitless. These are tough years for you as Pluto opposes these key areas of your chart. It's an emergence dear Country. You can do it!

America, your solar return (birthday chart effective July 4, 2012 to July 4,2013) shows a lot of work for the people. And it shows a great deal of organizing and cleaning up. There's certainly a lot of communicating about money and work going on. Grassroots industries look strong.

Pay attention to what you're doing. Yes, keep your eyes on the world but tend to your personal business. Your birthday chart shows you’re busy at something - make sure it’s peaceful and safe. Mars and Uranus are at key points in your chart and that means you have to keep your eyes open and not pick fights. Make changes sure, but stay out of danger. You can really make conscious decisions and move some inertia with this energy. A lot of changes are at work now, some of them beyond your control so think about the good of the whole. The men in your life (yep, the Presidential race) are really at odds with each other!

Your Cancer Sun is in the 7th house of relationships so don't forget who your friends are. Your enemies are not hidden either! With stern Saturn in sophisticated Libra in the house of your global reputation you maintain your decorum and others look to you for leadership. Remember, freedom is an important concept to you, with freedom loving Uranus at the root of your birthday chart, expect the unexpected.

Your Moon this year is in practical Capricorn in the 2nd house of money. This tells us that the people, which is one of the things the Moon rules in a chart, are being smart and sensible with their money. They are becoming aware of where their real wealth lies. You can't pull the wool over their eyes.

America, thanks for being who you are. I am so glad you’re part of the planet. Your earth, sky, waters, animals, plants and people are precious to us.

 

 

 

 

                                     Summer of 2012
                                    Eclipses and Venus

Dear friends,

We live in very interesting cosmic times. This report will focus on the two upcoming eclipses and Venus’ occultation of the Sun. (Scroll down for America's birthday reading). Bottom line? The emergence of new consciousness the Mayans saw as they ended their calendar.

The first eclipse is May 20th AT 5:47 PM MDT at a New Moon in Gemini at 0°. This eclipse is about new connections. This powerful cosmic opening is an opportunity to integrate new information in a positive and grounded way. Anything begun now has the capacity to help you see, think and process in new ways. Sensitive Chiron opposes active Mars teaching us that continuing to pursue destruction habits is seriously harmful. We must begin to change. This can be as simple (and profound) as being kinder in our speech, or, as practical as recycling instead of dumping everything in the trash. Watch the French film The Belle Verte for an enchanting and hilarious take on what this could look like. This movie is free on YouTube and has English subtitles. In the movie they talk about a massive boycott. Imagine if we did that – if we boycott the stuff we simply don’t need. Life would become simpler don’t you think? Gemini is about thinking and this eclipse is about a new way of thinking. This can include all the areas Gemini rules like brothers and sisters, neighborhoods and connection. In essence, this eclipse is about fine tuning your life to a higher, sweeter, purer resonance.

The New Moon eclipse is followed in two weeks by a Full Moon lunar eclipse at 14° Sagittarius on June 4th. This eclipse moves our ideas into the realm of faith, hope and vision. Venus is near the Sun at this Full Moon highlighting values and differences of opinion. Active Mars squares the Sun and Moon creating the tension necessary to move you forward. A little push could get you through to the other side. Don’t give up now! Push! Optimism is key! Your positive attitude makes things possible especially when things appear much bigger than they really are, thanks to abundant Jupiter’s presence on the horizon at the time of the eclipse (June 4, 5:11 AM MDT). As they say “Let’s Tip this thing!” (worldwidetippingpoint.com). Let’s move forward!

As if to prove that a new consciousness is emerging Venus makes her move.

This summer, the planet Venus will occult the Sun, meaning she will move in front of our star. She does this in regular cycles. Indeed her pattern of five retrograde cycles every eight years appealed to the Rosicrucians, the Masons and other mystical groups, who saw in Venus’ flower ellipse pattern, the source of all life. Cut open an apple around its middle and you will see Venus’ cycle in the seeds and core – a sign of the five pointed star. The Mayans were very closely attuned to Venus cycles and saw that Venus’ occultation of the Sun in 2012 would be highly significant. Venus slips in front of the Sun in a pair of eclipses spaced eight years apart. You might remember 2004 when Venus last occulted the Sun.

This is a significant time for many reasons. Firstly, Venus eclipses the Sun only twice, spaced eight years apart, every 105.5 years. The last time was 1874 and 1882 and the next will be 2117 and 2125. Don’t miss this one! Further, Venus is the ancient ruler of Gemini and she occults the Sun at 15° Gemini on June 5th at 7:10 to 7:11 PM MDT. You can watch the eclipse from the Hawaiian Observatory here: http://www.lunarplanner.com/HCpages/Venus2012.html

Venus was known to the Sumerians and was called Inanna. In mythology, Inanna descended to the underworld when she slipped from sight to change from being a morning “star” to an evening one and vice versa. As she disappeared from view it was said that she went through seven gates to get to the underworld where her sister Ereshkigal, lived. As Inanna descended she was stripped of something at each gate until she faced her sister – the forgotten dark aspect of the feminine. Inanna stayed in the underworld for three days and nights (similar time frame to the Sun’s disappearance at Winter Solstice and Christ’s time of transition). With the help of Enki (Mercury), Inanna was able to escape and ascend, claiming her full light once again. We will be reenacting the rite of Inanna at the summer solstice if you care to join us. Please see Classes for more info. If you are unable to join us, perhaps you can enact your own rite of passage to honor this beautiful, rare cosmic occasion.

Venus will be in Gemini when she slips in front of the Sun. Gemini governs communication devices and things with wheels so we might see some huge leap forward in technology or transportation following the occultation. The Mayans felt 2012 was the emergence of new consciousness here on planet Earth. The sign of Gemini relates to how the mind works, and why we think the way we do. If Venus’ occultation of the Sun in Gemini has any influence here on Earth at all then this is the influence – new thoughts, new ways of expression, a new set of values. Why not a new level of consciousness? Visit internet archives and let your fingers do the walking through history’s timeline to discover Venus’ affects upon our lives and let’s see what she brings us this time.

June 12th abundant Jupiter will enter Gemini where all this cosmic action is taking place. This is Jupiter's first trip to Gemini in 12 years. What happened for you last time? This whole period of time is ruled by Mercury, the very same Enki who rescued Inanna from the Underworld. Do you need rescuing from your own thoughts? Do you want out of a paradigm of illusion centered on fear and television? Do you want to find peace, beauty and to live on a healthy planet? This summer is a time of new thought and being. Allow yourself to let go of the density of matter and to vibrate just a little bit purer so that your world can be new again.

 

                                   

 

 

Peace my friends, peace.

Spring Equinox March 20, 2012

 

Spring Equinox and the Sun has entered Aries - a time of beginnings. As I write this the Moon is dark in Pisces. This is a potent time. Plant the seeds of your new life with love. Stay open but grounded. At the Aries New Moon on March 22nd crazy Uranus will bless the birth of the Moon with a zap of cosmic mojo and usher in the next phase of your life. The deep mulch of Mercury's retrograde will help you feel your way through what could be, for some of you, the most significant transition of your life.

 

Uranus' presence at this lunation let's us know that no outcome is certain. The only certain thing is change! Sometimes we have no control over what happens and this is one of those times. Despite the uncertainty Uranus does bring great awareness, a feeling of profound liberation and excitement. Enjoy!

2012 is finally here. It's going to be an important year for many reasons. In the USA it's a Presidential election year for example. Cosmically, beautiful Venus occults the Sun this summer - an extremely rare and important transit.

 

As I write this January 17, 2012, all the planets but Eris and Sedna are direct. This forward motion has an accelerating effect in that we are prompted to move to the next level of our thinking and being. Our drain upon the planet's resources is so huge we are being forced into making necessary life sustaining changes. The planet Uranus' move through pioneering Aries will bring forward new technologies as well as promote individualization and rebellion. The Arab Spring and Occupy Wall Street are examples of this energy.

 

The influence of Awakening Uranus is magnified by its on going square with powerful Pluto creating stress and tension on failing structures of all kinds. In other words, things are falling apart and yet simultaneously, new vibrant growth is emerging.

 

Your job for 2012 dear reader, is to become aware of your shadow. No more projection! No more victimhood. This year you step fully into radical self-care. Nowhere is this more prominently felt than now until early July as active Mars travels through health conscious Virgo. Mars retrogrades in this sign from late January to the middle of April to give us an opportunity to clean up and clean out. Remember, self-care means on all levels - emotional, physical, mental and spiritual. The winds of change, in all its forms, are here. It's time to clean house.

 

Very early on January 23rd the Moon kisses the Sun in the social and intellectual sign of Aquarius. This bold new Moon squares abundant Jupiter, sextiles wild Uranus and is witnessed by stationary Mars. What does that mean? Hope my friends; hope that by being fair and just we can choose new and efficient paths for all beings to follow. Due to Mars’ coming retrograde it will be spring before we see the results of the decisions we make now. Make good ones. Support one another. Try something new.

 

Just after the New Moon active Mars turns retrograde. The inward journey officially begins. It's time to clean up on the inside and to reorient to what really matters. Mars is in Virgo, the sign of simplicity and perfection. Do it right, and do it once, is its message. We have until the middle of April to sort things out, to trim down, and make healthier, more conscious choices. If inner tension builds - pay attention. Under these skies, details matter.

 

On that note I am off to tend to my duties and will return to write more as I can. Pop by often and refresh this page. If you live in the Grand Junction, CO area please join us for classes. Group work facilitates change and that's what's happening now.

 

Hang in there!

 

Your astrologer,

Solstice/Christmas New Moon 2011

 

Christmas Eve brings a New Moon in practical Capricorn, closely conjunct powerful Pluto and squared by wild Uranus. The very next day, abundant Jupiter turns direct in earthy Taurus. This begins a 30 day period in which all the planets are direct (except for Eris and Sedna whose retrograde represents feminine meditative consciousness).

This New Moon is a powerful beginning that has the energy to carry you forward. The seeds you plant in the deep dark of your unconscious mind will sprout under this powerful energy.  

Here's my view on how to use this long lasting energy best: Practice mindfulness. Be practical. Take responsibility for your life and circumstances. Get to work on you - at first this takes place on the inside. Your interior world is the foundation for your exterior one. Take extra care to nurture yourself deeply from the inside out. Set some goals.  

    Many blessings to you and yours!

 

 

                              AUGUST TO DECEMBER 2011
                             And a peek ahead to early 2012

 

Greetings friends,

 

I write this as the Moon wanes to darkness, ready to birth again in the healing and cleansing sign of Virgo, Sunday evening August 28th, 2011. Two days after the New Moon on August 28th, abundant Jupiter retrogrades in earthy Taurus (August 30) until late December 2011. It is important to initiate some order into your life as the Moon waxes and as Jupiter pauses. Use the small but vital window of time to do something pleasing and orderly in your life. Gift yourself with a fresh start you can live with for at least six months.

 

In late January 2012 until April 2012 active Mars retrogrades in the sign of Virgo. You may redo something, fix something, or return to some state of health or work you have done in the past during these dates. Regardless of the specifics, which change from person to person, your job now, is to be mindful, clear, concise and prudent about your life's path. It's alright to be abundant, to think big, but in practical ways. Mars and Jupiter will trine each other next year fueling your long range goals in slow and steady ways.

 

Mercury retrogrades from Thanksgiving to mid December 2011 in talkative Sagittarius, exactly squaring Mars' retrograde path. What can this all mean? To my mind it suggests dynamic tension that encourages clear, rational and brilliant thought. Conscious thought and action attunes to non-linear time and trusts the natural unfolding of the Universe. In other words dear friends, if we are indeed at the brink of some powerful ending and some huge beginning it is happening within each of us.

 

The Occupy Wall St. movement is a clear sign of the times. It is actually the unfinished business of the late 1960s when Pluto and Uranus were conjunct in Virgo. Now these two powerful cosmic forces square each other threatening the status quo and attempting to redistribute power. This struggle for power and equality continues on until 2016. There is no short term solution. The issues will have to be resolved as they are not going to simply fizzle out.

 

On a personal level the on-going square between shadowy Pluto and erratic but genius Uranus demands that we let go of our B.S. and move forward. Perhaps we are indeed morphing into homo luminous as the Q'ero people say. All well and good but we are currently human with mortgages and bills to pay in a struggling economy. These planetary movements invite us to take charge of our own situation. Governments world wide may be of no use. Yet each individual can trim down, be creative, and join with others to problem solve and share resources. It's an excellent time to support local business and to strengthen the local economic and agricultural base. It's also an indication to pay close attention to your health. The more time you can devote to meditation, prayer and rest, the better able you will be to withstand the chaos of these times.

 

Under these skies, change is constant. But don't throw the baby out with the bath water especially at the end of the year when Uranus goes direct and in the process shakes things up a little. There is no greater time then now to root yourself much like a tree and do as trees do when the weather changes. Keep in mind that you are more empowered than you realize. Things are chaotic, but that's what happens when we shift gears, things change. This is simultaneously the end of an era and the beginning of a new time. It's a time of fear and great hope.  Be brave! Hold your head up! Rest deeply.

If you want a more personalized approach to the cosmic activities of the next several months please join me in Grand Junction CO for the next Cosmic Clock class January 21st. Details on the classes page.

 

Feminine and masculine rebalancing:

 

The presence of feminine cosmic archetypes are emerging at this time. Ceres and Eris were recently added to our solar system and have thus expanded our conscious relationship to the cosmos and opened areas of thought and being that were previously unknown to us. You can learn more about these vital energies and of Black Moon Lilith and Sedna, the Inuit Goddess and planet whose orbit around our Sun exceeds that of Pluto by 40 times, this January 14th at an experiential workshop in Grand Junction, CO. The same workshop will also be held in Durango CO February 25th. Please see my classes page for more info.

 

Please also schedule your astrology session with me. Once identified in the birth chart, these powerful emerging energies allow you to see yourself whole. Taking the class really helps understand them in a visceral way. Those who take the Great Awakening and the Shadows of the Goddess class receive discounted sessions.

 

Blessings abundant upon each and every one of us.

 

May all beings be happy and safe,
and may their hearts be filled with joy.
May all beings live in security and peace,
whether weak or strong, large or small,
near or far away, visible or invisible,
already born or yet to be born,
May all of them dwell in perfect tranquility.

The Metta Sutra, Teachings of Buddha.

                                                             OVERALL THEME FOR 2011

 

Greetings everyone,

There should be a bumper sticker that reads “Shift Happens” because this is the time when shift is indeed happening. Shift has happened before and will happen in the future, what is so different about now is that we are all shifting at once – individuals, families, communities, governmental policy, global politics, species, weather patterns, and earth herself. We’re going through some giant rite of passage called endings. This is the energy of powerful Pluto in Capricorn in an on-going angle of tension (square) to growth oriented Uranus in Aries until 2015. This can be compared to a woman entering menopause, a young man returning from a war, a factory closing, a dump overflowing with garbage, a dam breaking its banks, or a child in the birth canal; something that cannot be put back together the way it used-to-be is occurring.

Consider these images also: seedlings emerging from a compost heap, buds on a fruit tree. Yes, know it’s fall and the leaves are turning on Color Sunday, but from where I sit the Universe is already weaving the new buds of spring. Beginnings are a part of the cycle of time too; equally as old as endings. Beginnings are the impulse of life itself, insinuating itself in its rightful place. Do you remember the story about the 6000 year old olive trees by Carol Drinkwater? If you recall, cultivated, domesticated olive trees planted 6000 years ago were explored by Ms. Drinkwater on her travels in the Mount Lebanon area. These trees had been planted with conscious intent sixty centuries before and are still alive today. Thus the composting end time we’re in now, another one in a cycle in a series of cycles, provides the rich and fertile soil, the spongy, sticky loam of life itself, so new life can emerge. At this end time we are planting seeds for eras still to come.

Activist and philosopher Derrick Jensen says (and I am paraphrasing here) we are desperate for our current culture to die. We are tired of its violence, senseless wars, movies, waste, destruction and gluttony. But, rather than letting go, we fight to hold onto what we know and thus begin to die ourselves. He added that if we think our water comes from a tap we’ll fight to keep the tap but if we think our water comes from a stream then that is where our attention will be.

And that’s how I, as your astrologer, view the current situation. The tense angles Pluto, planet of death, rebirth and utter transformation is making with other planets, (Saturn in Libra square Jupiter and Uranus) gives cosmic voice to the situation. We are trying to let go of what doesn’t serve us. And what doesn’t serve us is enormous, old, and deeply entrenched. Birth occurs on the heels of death. Hope is a precious resource we can never run out of.

 

                                                           

                                           JULY 2011

 

July 1st.

 

Today's the day! A new moon solar eclipse in Cancer is the beginning of a new eclipse series (as per Bernadette Brady) that runs until the year 3237. Containing a cardinal cross - a point of celestial tension that encourages new beginnings globally and personally. This indicates greater authenticity, increased awareness and self-responsibility. Listen on http://www.kzmu.org/ this Friday July 1st, at 2:00 MDT to hear Dulce & Christy of Moab Public radio discuss these times.

 

 JUNE 2011

 

Greetings everyone!

 

It is fitting that at this eclipse today (June 1, 2011) that I begin posting to this website again. I want to thank one of my favorite clients Ruth for her encouragement to do so!

 

This report looks at the basic astrology for the month but focuses primarily on the two eclipses. The eclipse today is in effect for at least a week. The basic rule of thumb, is that an eclipse, which is a cosmic doorway, is triggered by the first lunation that squares it. In the case of today's eclipse at 11° Gemini it will be squared by the Virgo New Moon on August 28, 2011. But I have seen eclipses activated a full year later.

 

An eclipse needs to be within 1° of a planet or angle in your chart to influence you. How do you know if this eclipse provides a cosmic doorway for you, as eclipses do? Look at your chart and see if you have any points between 10 and 12 degrees. If you do, this eclipse has meaning for you. The next step is to return to the last time this area of the sky experienced an eclipse. Eclipses occur in 18.5 year cycles so go back to 1992 and 1993 and see what was happening for you. I graduated with a Bachelor's degree then and began a new career. Just a month ago I graduated with my Master's degree and am incorporating new aspects into my astrology practice. This eclipse is exactly on key planets in my chart. A good friend who has the eclipse directly opposite the light of his Sun, went through a messy divorce 19 years ago. By visiting the past you can see the general influence the eclipse might have for you. Astrology, though it looks forward, must include a study of the past. If you want to be serious about your astrological practice, keep a journal.

 

Now to today's eclipse: This is a New Moon solar eclipse in Gemini. Gemini is the sign of communication but more importantly it governs the act and art of perception. It helps organize thoughts and discerns, out of all the external stimuli, what your senses will absorb. Gemini is, in effect, your perceptual filter. This eclipse is a cosmic invitation to shift your perceptual filter and sense the world in a different way. Here's an example: what if you did not recycle? You felt recycling was a waste of time and money. This eclipse may well open your eyes to the importance of this earthly stewardship and help you manage your waste more effectively and harmoniously by talking with your waste service and getting recycling bins delivered to your home. Such is the power of an eclipse like today's - change your mind - change your behavior.

 

It's possible that shocking news may accompany this eclipse as Gemini is always up-to-date on the latest. However, there's an abundance of grounding earth energy present that helps lessen blows and encourages practical solutions.

 

On June 3rd, chatty Mercury also enters Gemini and it is then that you might begin to connect the dots on your recent awareness. Both Neptune and Chiron turn retrograde in early June inviting you to assimilate on a cellular level, your new beliefs and awareness. Dr. Bruce Lipton has discovered in his studies that it is not genetics that determines disease or good health, but your belief systems. He calls his new science Epigenetics. Check it out to truly understand how you could shift your focus and have a powerful effect upon your life.

 

In the first 10 days of the month not only do Neptune and Chiron retrograde but lovely Venus enters quick talking Gemini and abundant Jupiter enters earthy Taurus. This indicates a global value shift of some kind. Pay attention to see what it might be for you and your community. Look to the areas of your chart governed by Taurus and Gemini. It is in those houses that abundance and busyness comes this month, and in the case of Jupiter, until this time next year. Jupiter is a benevolent, awakened, optimistic energy and in Taurus it promises a wealth of values and a resurgence in the economy that is based on earth centered products and activities.

 

The next eclipse is a Full Moon lunar eclipse at 24° Sagittarius on June 15th. Again, look for that degree point in your chart and return in time to 19 years ago and see what transpired for you, if anything. The Gemini/Sagittarius opposition highlights difference of opinion and belief. Dogma may emerge and with it a fair dose of overwhelm. On a practical level, you can allow this release, which all full moons are, to help you recenter yourself on your path of meaning. Please reread my notes on the overall theme for 2011 to see that the underlying tension of these times requires shifts in perception, needs discussion, and functions within community; these are all things that this eclipse holds space for. Connect with like-minded others and share your views and hear those of others. That kind of coming together is exactly what the world needs now.

 

June 21st is the summer solstice where the Sun enters loving, leadership oriented, but also protective Cancer. Mars also changes position that day entering Gemini for the first time in two years. These moves invite new leadership and you may find yourself empowered to deal with difficult tasks. The month ends on a New Moon solar eclipse in Cancer opposed to powerful Pluto. It's time to examine your emotional body and see what shadows lurk there. If you're in the Grand Junction area please join us for my Befriending Your Shadow class. As the USA is a Cancer country we could collectively face our larger issues at this time. Lord knows, there are tons of issues we need to address here at home.

FEBRUARY 2011

Hello everyone,

 

Welcome to the beautiful month of February when the Sun sweeps through the egalitarian sign of Aquarius. This is a time for the voice of the people - for equality and justice to shine. With active and feisty Mars poking at the Sun for the first two weeks of the month, actions speak louder than words and freedom prevails. Rebellion and opinion run high. However, by the 18th and after the full Leo Moon, the Sun separates from Mars and enters watery Pisces. This shifts the energy completely and things may simply run out of steam. Attention turns to resources and issues of healing and welfare as the Sun travels with wounded healer Chiron. Your best bet is to slowly turn your attention to your inner realm as the Moon begins to wane. It's a good time to strengthen your spiritual body in preparation for the wild time that is the month of March. More on that soon.

 

 

                                                  

EGYPT IN TRANSITION, WEATHER CHANGES AND MORE

 ADDED JANUARY 30, 2011

 

We are seeing the fiery, independent, warrior nature of Aries reveal itself in the current Egyptian uprisings. Jupiter the planet of expansion is in Aries for the first time in 12 years and in early March 2011, Uranus will be in this fire sign for the first time in 84 years. Both these planets did, briefly, enter Aries last summer for a short stay. Jupiter will move into Taurus by early June 2011 but Uranus, a bold, radical energy, will stay in Aries until 2018. For months I have written about the expansion of Aries energy we are experiencing now. Here's what I wrote last year:

" Both Jupiter, the planet of abundance, and Uranus the planet of change and innovation, are in fiery Aries for the first time in 12 and 84 years respectively.  At the risk of being redundant I shall repeat some of the information I’ve shared with you before to remind you of the magnitude of these times.

Evidence of these planets together is found in earth changes, like volcanoes, earthquakes, wind storms and the like; new technologies like the iPad and other sophisticated devices yet to be revealed; widespread use of solar and nuclear power along with innovative energy products; major breakthroughs in the use of the internet including sabotage and crime; more militancy in fundamental groups; increased military action and boldness; increased lawlessness and a powerful sense of individualization; contact with extraterrestrials; and a general sense of revolution, evolution and change.

Uranus’ last stay in Aries was between 1927 and 1935. The years both preceding and following this innovative, radical energy were fraught with change, new invention and radical doctrine including the introduction of the 40 hour/5 day work week (as opposed to the 48 hour/6 day work week), the first use of air travel to take the mail, widespread use of television and radio, Roosevelt’s New Deal and Hitler’s rise to power.  

Jupiter was last in Aries in 1999. Think back to what that time meant for you. Jupiter will be in Aries until early September of this year only and will spend all of 2011 in the first sign of the zodiac. Coupled with bold Uranus, Jupiter in Aries encourages you to think and act for yourself… to boldly go where you have never gone before. It’s a laissez faire quality, a devil may care approach to life where you want to do what you want to do and be damned the rest! Each of us are individuals already and this energy will be unique to you. Find the early degrees of Aries in your chart so you can see what areas of your life will receive this powerfully cutting of the umbilical cord."

Here's something I'd like to add for the next few months of 2011:

Erratic Uranus on its own, and exacerbated with Jupiter's expanded energy, is an invitation for rioting, liberation, rebellion of all kinds. Uranus will not be confined, not by anyone, anywhere, and in independent Aries it is a recipe for individuation, aggression and terrorism. Neighborhood and vigilante groups (Aquarius) have formed spontaneously in true Aries style to protect common interests. The Egyptian rebellion occurred with Mars' sojourn through social Aquarius with the Sun. Mars rules Aries and is an important cosmic ingredient. Mars adds flame to fuel, kick-starts events and is the energy that gets things going. Mars conjunct the Sun in social Aquarius makes Aquarius energy the context as it were, for Mars' fire. Aquarius is all about society, groups, and the brotherhood of man. Aquarius wants liberty and justice for all and will not tolerate unfairness. Aquarius is about large social movement and is found in all humanitarian and scientific endeavors. Aquarius is advocacy and most Aquarians are activists of some kind. Aquarius also rules cyberspace and the internet and we find rebellion everywhere - even on the internet, Wikileaks being a case in point.

We are likely to see the flame of rebellion move throughout the world over the next several months. What do you do about this? Connect with friends, create community and find ways to express the vital energy of these dynamic times.

I am concerned that Uranus in Aries, especially with Jupiter, will exacerbate the effects of global warming as our planet's atmosphere struggles to cope with the over abundance of carbon we release hourly into the air. Weather changes are highly likely over the next several months in very pronounced ways. What to do? Be mindful of how much you're using. Conserve where possible. Store food and water. Reduce your carbon footprint by choosing solar and wind power where you can. These changes are going to take time and the need to make them so obvious, that it will be easier to make them as the months go on. Join with others to make these changes.

Thoughts about January 2011
Greetings all,

We're truly in unique times. Planets that move very slowly are in new positions for the first time in years. Those that aren’t there yet will be by this spring. For example Pluto is in Capricorn for the first time in 250 years, Uranus will move into Aries for the first time 84 years, Chiron into Pisces 50 years and so on.

The sense of impending change brought about by these shifts is very evident this month. January has particularly powerful energy. The month opened with an important partial new moon solar eclipse in Capricorn on January 4th. Eclipses in this sign of business, government and structure usher in restructuring at all levels of development and in all kinds of organizations. Meanwhile, from the 1st to the 26th ALL planets are direct! This is a rare phenomenon as usually at least one planet is retrograde, or appearing to fall behind the Earth in our track around the Sun.

The forward motion of all planets at once promotes accelerated growth and accentuates evolutionary development. The floods in Queensland for example, are indicative of the effects of global warming and we're seeing this on a huge scale. In other words, it's not just third world countries that are vulnerable - we all are. Also, the senseless killing in Tucson reminds us that the human mind can be a sensitive thing and it responds to what we feed it. Avoid negativity and violence if at all possible. Rage lurks like a shadow at the door. We don't need to let it in via the radio or TV nor do we need to spread it.

 

At the same time this accelerated evolutionary impulse has the potential to unify us and to help us finally come to common consensus of the obvious changes we need to make. We are at an age and time when we can CREATE consciously, together. Fine tuning our powers of co-creation is the next stage of our human evolution. This could be totally incredible! Let's not regress. Take a look at Don Beck's Spiral of Development (Ken Wilber discusses in throughout his many volumes). Basically we are piercing the membrane of our current collective consciousness because it's time and we have to do it but it creates a crisis within the collective and the individual. See how it feels for you to expand your consciousness, to practice peace, to engage in equanimity. It's not easy but it is necessary.

A way to use this energy personally is to channel the forward movement of the planets in your life - as above, so below. It doesn't mean you have to do everything at once but it is helpful to have clear goals and a focus. Take personal responsibility for your life path is the message of this month. Use this month to ponder, to hope, and to vision your path.

By the 23rd abundant Jupiter enters fiery Aries for the first time in 12 years and pushes events forward at an accelerated pace. Yet just a few days later stern Saturn retrogrades in the sign of the scales slowing down processes associated with contracts and housing. So simultaneously there’s a sense of growth, development and newness and a sense of status quo, even of feeling stuck or safe in an old paradigm or being blocked somehow. It’s important at this time to develop a healthy optimism for new directions while honoring old structures and developments. In time, the old will dissolve and the new will take its place but in the meantime they both have to live together.

 


I hope this is of use to you! Please call me if you’d like to look more closely at what this all means to you. I am offering $75 sessions recorded to CD that covers the main themes of 2011 in your chart.
Blessings
!

 

The 13th Sign
 


The 13th sign has been around a long time!  The precession of the equinoxes (which is related to the Earth's wobble) has us looking at a different section of the zodiac which includes another constellation - the 13th sign - Ophiuchus or the serpent. The Samarians divided the sky/zodiac (360 degrees) into 12 signs each being 30 degrees in size, with the addition of the 13th sign the size of the sign changes. 13 into 360 instead of 12. Now we know from just looking at the night sky that there are more constellations than 13

but for the purposes of travel, and later for prediction, the sky was used as a map and can be divided as preferred. And it has been. From a sidereal perspective (another form of astrology which sees the sky as it is today) you have been another sign all this time. Whether it's the sidereal, Vedic or the 13th sign system, the methods are the same - the relationships the planets have with each other are more important than the sign they are in.

 

This flurry of cosmic rearranging is only a small part of what we're going to see over the next year. Many, many changes are coming and with the right attitude of mindfulness and compassion it should be a good though possibly disconcerting experience

 

It's interesting to consider Ophiuchus as another sign though. This is the archetype of the snake charmer, the healer, the shaman. It corresponds to kundalini energy in the body and in my opinion, it invites a quickening response. This is really useful to have these days. Look for Ophiuchus in your chart between Scorpio and Sagittarius. This is the area of your life where a spiritual quickening in response to changing circumstances is required.   Perfect for these times!


Another thing... though Ophiuchus has been around since the beginning of time, it's flitted in and out of our consciousness. Very shaman like. Now we see it, now we don't. Quite magical in a way.

 

 

 



 

SPECIAL SOLSTICE ECLIPSE REPORT
December 2010
 


Trees - Nature's reminder

 

Tuesday December 21st at 1:17 AM MST, there will be a total eclipse of the full moon at 29˚ Gemini. You should be able to see the eclipse from any place in the USA.

 

It is an eclipse of messages. Full of cosmic information and the quickening of both spirit and intellect, this eclipse steps up the pace of human evolution and urges that we integrate the truth. The truth. What do you need to do to live in truth and what does that mean to you?

 

Eclipses are cosmic doorways that open to invite our growth and conscious intent for enlightenment. Occurring at the winter solstice, this cosmic doorway carries extra import. The Sun sheds its light across the body of the Earth, which in turn casts its shadow upon the glistening full Moon. The Sun is positioned at the Galactic Center and as such conveys messages from the Galactic Center to those in its path. Imbued with Christ consciousness and spoken with the voice of our beloved Mother Earth, this eclipse invites us to transform and transcend. We are to transcend our attachment to materialism and the limitations of that attachment. We are to transform our way of being so that we step lightly upon our Earth home, honoring Mother's sacred body and the tiny babies of all species so that little fox, fledging sparrow, saplings and pippins; and schools of fish deep in the ocean's womb have their voice through us. Activists John Seed and Joanna Macy say that we are in a unique time when the Earth has consciousness through us and can speak through us if we open ourselves up to profoundly connecting to the voice of Earth and all her inhabitants. This means communicating in different ways. One of the signs of these times is the increased use of telepathy and what Rupert Sheldrake calls the Extended Mind. This is where the mind reaches out to embrace and become part of the Morphic Field of Resonance. The MFR is the great web of life, spirit and mind of which every living and inert thing is part.

 

This eclipse in the final degrees - a place of great transition, of messenger Gemini,  begs us to sing with Earth's voice the message we receive from the stars. Create space if you like at this eclipse time, to hold open the cosmic door with your candle of intention, vibrating with the light of truth and connected one to another, just as birds turn in the sky as one.
