Last forecast I touched on this week’s Mars-Saturn opposition, which has been gathering, activates tomorrow and goes partile on Sunday. As this sets up, a New Moon occurs in Gemini on Thursday the 25th at 3:45 pm (EST). The Moon-Sun conjunction shares no aspect to the Saturn-Mars opposition, which is helpful for separating intellectual, subconscious and objectives that belong to lengthier or deeper cycles. Although, Mars and the Sun will be sharing the sign of Gemini, who’

Two very important events occur today; the Saturn-Uranus trine goes partile and Venus at last exits the shadow of her retrograde and progresses into altogether new territory in the ecliptic, passing the minute she turned retrograde on March 4th. We’ll begin with Venus: whatever illusions of churning desire that might have gathered from the week between February 26th’s eclipse and March 4th’s Venus standing retrograde (in which span Mercury, Neptune and the Sun had come conju

Not everyone reading an astrological forecast understands exactly what each aspect listed implies, but simply listing the Full Moon in Scorpio’s set of aspects probably breeches the cerebral barrier and transfers it to the gut, much like the effect of said Moon itself: Moon in Scorpio opposite Sun in Taurus, Venus in Aries opposite Jupiter in Libra, Mars in Gemini trine Jupiter in Libra, Saturn in Sagittarius trine Mercury in Aries conjunct Uranus, Moon in Scorpio trine Neptu

Mercury stands direct on Wednesday, Mercury day, May 3, conjunct Uranus, in a grand trine with with both Saturn and the Moon in Sagitarius and with Mars in his sign, Gemini, approaching the the Bull’s eye, Aldebaran. There is some serious energy here, as well as vibratory energy to fortifications. For those of you whose cups resemble fortresses, to either plunder or explore, and you want to sip an electrified drink, this would be your beverage of choice. There is enough el

This week we’re going to get right into the New Moon on the 26th. A dark night of less than liminal light will be delivered that evening, but the conjunction of the Luminaries occurs at 8:15 am EST, 6° 27’ Taurus. On the east coast coffee miasmas might still be hung upon us like roasted wreaths, where most of our Pacific counterparts will be submerged in either REM rivers or on the banks of hypnopompic streams. Look at the Sun rising in the Bull’s sign, and imagine the spi

The Moon is in Capricorn right now and waning, twenty-one days since the New Moon. While preparing this forecast I was writing in my journal about pan-magic-dream-happenstance cemetery coincidences when someone texted me about meeting a man who’s last name was Ghostwatcher because his family were the protectors of a cemetery. I looked on Instagram and people were posting photos of gravestones exhibiting names like Beach and Barefoot simultaneous with people offering images

Many readers, even in Southern New England have been gazing at Crocuses for nearly a month now, and others further south have been harvesting vegetables, or blessed be, swimming, throughout much of the winter, but up here by the 45th parallel and above, the Vernal Equinox was marked by the passage of heavy snows, biting cold snaps and swirling winds, as if the hag chatter persisted past the pinch points, her hair long drawn over armpit folds, cheek crests and open napes where

Probably most of us could feel the New Moon in Aries, and the series of arguments that it inspired, whether they were internal or shared in collaboration with friends, coworkers, family and passerby accomplices/victims. You all probably all felt Luna in relative darkness take a quiet seat upon the cold bower ground and refuse to move once she began to swell slightly in Taurus, sharing the sign with Mars who’s normal athletic and aggressive qualities are reduced to the prowes

Venus is the planet that attracts us to the material world. Her ability to bond and unify informs what we value, and that which we value most is what we love, whether that be paintings we strongly admire or people we share our lives with. To that with which we are bonded. Every year and a half Venus’ progression in the ecliptic slows down to a stop and reverses direction, moving backward, in retrograde motion, causing us to review what we love, what we consider beautiful,

Due to my great anticipation of February 26th's annular solar eclipse, I have spent considerably less time pondering the penumbral lunar eclipse rapidly approaching on February 10th, it's personalities remarkably more harmonious and it's energetic magnitude certainly on a smaller scale than what will occur on the 26th. When I write things like "The Crone of the Moon comes with a glint blade of disembowelment" I don't always mean to forewarn bodily calamity, but am simply poin
