journey with more joy!
Eclipses hide the light, so you can see a shadow, then turn the light back on so you can heal the shadow. On July 4th, we experienced our third and final eclipse this season. One month earlier, on June 3rd, I shared the quote above in my article called June / July Eclipses. Think about… Continue reading Our Second New Moon in Cancer
This morning, the moon made an exact conjunction with Saturn, which I caught a picture of: A number of words or phrases one might associate with Saturn are: responsibility, restriction, onus, work, structure, father, boss, and task-master. My favorite ways to think of Saturn are: manifestation and making real. Real is subjective...as is reality. I… Continue reading Saturn in Aquarius
In yesterday’s post (Venus and Mars; Dogs and Cats), I discussed the Venus-Mars conjunction. A conjunction occurs when two (or more) planets appear next to each other in the sky from our vantage. They needn’t be anywhere near each other in reality. For example, Venus is still quite close to earth. She just overtook us… Continue reading Virgo Pisces Opposition
Through chemistry, we learn that the molecules in a liquid and gas bump up against each other. When heat is added, the movement increases, and so does the frequency of contact. In human life, it works the same. Cram a lot of bodies into a room, and chances are you won’t be able to stretch… Continue reading Chemistry
Yesterday, my yoga teacher stated an interesting observation. This is more or less what she said: If you have vices, they will be tested in December. More than any other time of year, there is a tendency to over-indulge: over-eating, drinking too much, spending too much money. If you have family issues, they expand in… Continue reading A True Sadge
I found this picture via spaceweather.com. (Click on it to go there.) It is pretty much the same scene that I saw. Last night was the first clear night in Austin since the 26th when Mercury, Venus, and Jupiter formed a triangle. They are now, quite literally, aligned (in a line), well visually anyway. Mercury… Continue reading Alignment
The above photo, published on spaceweather.com this morning (click on the picture to jump there), depicts the Mercury, Venus, Jupiter conjunction in Gemini as seen last night. If you look at the title bar for this blog at the top of this page, you will notice that the Fool is staring at this exact configuration.… Continue reading A Special Configuration
Today is April 19th within the final hours of Aries. As an astrological month, this has been one of my toughest. However, today I feel happy in a way I have not since Mercury stationed on March 17th. A couple of days ago, Jupiter crossed the cusp of my 11th house. Over the weekend, retrograde… Continue reading Painful Gifts
Campaigning on Mercury’s behalf does not exclude me from his mischievery (sic). Sometimes he takes you back, and at other times he stops you in your tracks. For the second time in 6 months, a fun trip has been stolen away last minute. This time Mercury’s tomfoolery was at least amusing. With wind he knocked… Continue reading Mercury’s Mischief
Today is one of those days I previewed last week and features, among other things, the face-off between Mars and Jupiter exact at 7:54 am CDT. Jupiter, in and of himself, is seemingly harmless. However, he is a magnifying glass. Whatever you see while looking through Jupiter will be larger than normal. When Jupiter transited… Continue reading Face-off
