The Full Moon in Aries on Sunday, October 13, forms a powerful and transformative T-square in the heavens. A T-square occurs when 3 planets in 3 different constellations create square angles with each other. A T-square configuration, especially when it coincides with a Full Moon, can create tension in the atmosphere as the tides are higher and water in our bodies swells to create a feeling of pressure.
A collection of 5 planets in the earth sign of Virgo will grace the skies at the Virgo New Moon on August 30. This rare collection of 5 planets in one sign—also squaring beneficial Jupiter while opposing spiritual Neptune—portends a collective quest for perfection with spiritual solace as the optimal solution. With manifestation-oriented Saturn and transformative Pluto also in the earth sign of Capricorn and innovative Uranus in the earth sign of Taurus at the New Moon as well, there will be a collective push for manifesting results and positive outcomes, too.
The July 16 Full Moon Lunar Eclipse falls into a complex T-square pattern that is certain to provoke hidden tensions inside yourself and in your personal relationships.
The July 16 eclipse will be visible in Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa, South America, and Antarctica, where its effects will be strongest.
The Full Moon in Sagittarius—when the Sun is in Gemini and the Moon in Sagittarius—arrives on June 17, 2019. This day is also called the "Strawberry Moon” because June’s Full Moon is traditionally associated with the harvest of the strawberry crops.
Have you ever been in a difficult situation or circumstance where you can’t necessarily explain why, but you feel like it’s a natural process that for some strange reason just needs to happen and so you’re ok with it? This is a great way of explaining the nature of the energy of what is happening in the sky this week. There are a couple of different factors to explain here to understand why this is the case. There are some things that I have been discussing for awhile that have been ongoing—such as Saturn conjunct Ketu and Mercury being retrograde. There is also some
Each Zodiac sign has another sign opposite of it and these two signs represent one axis. You could liken it to an axle that has two wheels attached at each end. Each wheel represents an opposite end of a polarity of the axis. This is a proper metaphor in astrology for understanding the psychology, paradigm, and circumstances that are indicated by the two opposing signs of an axis.
Mercury and Venus are two planets whose energies works together to help us in our ability to make decisions. In the zodiac, they are never too far apart as their orbits are closer to the Sun. Very often, in fact, they are in the same sign and conjunct. At times it seems like they are inseparable and their energies are very synergistic towards each other. In Vedic Astrology, they are known to be mutual friends towards each other which means that each’s natural characteristics and qualities complements those of the other. Now let’s look at how they work together.
When thinking of Venus, the concept that often comes to mind is the process of valuation. This is all about assigning worth to something within the context of the environment in which it exists. In a common sense, valuation is often associated with property. But with Venus in consideration, this context of assessing value and worth is more about what brings comfort to one’s life and joy to one’s heart. This is a very personal sense of value and worth that each individual holds dear.
Each new year represents a clean slate and a time to create course corrections to those areas in our lives that aren’t meeting our expectations. This is why we create things like new year’s resolutions and create promises to make this upcoming calendar year better than the last. Whereas these intentions are great, there is at times a reluctance to implement these changes in our lives because it typically represents moving out of our comfort zone.
