Fasten your seatbelts for the New Moon in Scorpio on Sunday, October 27, when the Sun and Moon in Scorpio will be directly opposite revolutionary Uranus in Taurus. Uranus is the planet of innovation that likes to upset the status quo. When it is placed in the earth sign of Taurus, it reconfigures finances, values, and possessions. The energy of Uranus gives us lessons about non-attachment and surrender. When the Sun and Moon are in the intense water sign of Scorpio, as they will be on October 27, deep emotions and passionate feelings also are brought to the surface to be healed.

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. 

The Libra New Moon is the time to focus on your relationships! Whether your relations are good or bad, this is the time to decide how you would like them to proceed in the future!

It will be a very busy day on the Harvest Moon (Full Moon) of Friday, September 13—which you may notice is also Friday the 13th! 

In addition to the superstition associated with Friday the 13th, the planets will be forming a tense T-square in the sky (2 square angles or 3/4 of a grand cross) under this Full Moon. This portends the feeling of being at a crossroads. Or, if you don’t feel at a crossroads, you may feel you are missing a piece of information, so you cannot necessarily move forward or back. You may feel temporarily stuck.

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 New Moon in Leo occurs on Wednesday, July 31, just 46 minutes before Mercury completes its retrograde cycle. With Mercury in Cancer in retrograde at the moment of the Leo New Moon (8:12 pm PDT/11:12 pm EDT), this celestial line-up portends delays in communication—either in delivering communication, receiving communication, or formulating an idea or expressing an idea. It will be important to have patience!

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 New Moon Solar Eclipse in Cancer on July 2, 2019, is the second New Moon Solar Eclipse in Cancer of the past year, and will likely awaken issues last raised to your awareness in July 2018.

A New Moon Solar Eclipse clears the way for a new idea, a new understanding, and a new direction. When the New Moon Solar Eclipse is in the Sign of Cancer, the new idea, understanding, or direction will have to do with your home, family, and feelings of safety and security.

The Gemini New Moon on June 3 will concentrate your energies on traveling around your local neighborhood, interacting with local neighbors and friends, catching up on overdue communications, and connecting with your siblings and cousins.

The Full Moon in Scorpio on Saturday, May 18—also known as the Buddha Moon—is an opportune time to meditate upon, visualize, and manifest your future.
