Transiting Juno stations retrograde
Timeline (current events in bold)
Thursday, November 2, 2023 - transiting Juno enters pre-retrograde shadow, 6°17’ Virgo
Saturday, January 13, 04:55 UT - transiting Juno stations retrograde, 21°52’ Virgo
Sunday, April 21, 02:58 UT - transiting Juno stations direct, 6°17’ Virgo
Monday, July 15, 03:26 UT - transiting Juno exits post-retrograde shadow, 21°52’ Virgo
===+++===
Caveat: this may not have much of an impact on you, personally, unless Juno is prominent in your chart (in close aspect to the Sun, Moon, &/or an angle - Ascendant, IC, Descendant, MC).
We have fourteen weeks to work on:
All one-to-one relationships - we need to look at our roles in our relationships. Am I giving or taking too much? When I’m trying to be helpful and useful, is it coming across as criticism and nagging? What attention do my working partnerships need?
Protocol and social ritual - just going to throw in a George Bernard Shaw quote, from Pygmalion: “The great secret, Eliza, is not having bad manners or good manners or any other particular sort of manners, but having the same manner for all human souls: in short, behaving as if you were in Heaven, where there are no third-class carriages, and one soul is as good as another.”
The powerless (women, battered wives, abused children, minorities, disabled children, victims) - there are (IMO) two ways, equally important, to help people. One is to fight for justice to be delivered in the future. The other is, what can we do to help right now?
The atmosphere (weather, climate, storms) - air purity is an issue. Maybe not just chemical pollution, but noise pollution as well.
I’ve listed the aspects below. Evem if Juno isn’t prominent in your chart, you may feel something when she “dings” you. Keep the orbs exact; and the further long we get, the more time the aspects will take.
Tuesday, January 16:
Juno Rx/Virgo square Venus/Sagittarius, 21°49’

Juno Rx/Virgo trine Ceres/Capricorn, 11°21’
Friday, March 15 - Juno Rx/Virgo inconjunct Mercury/Aries, 10°42’
Tuesday, March 19 - Juno Rx/Virgo opposite Venus/Pisces, 9°51’
Thursday, March 21 - Juno Rx/Virgo (9°33’) sesquisquare Eris/Aries (24°33’)
Monday, March 25 - Juno Rx/Virgo (8°47’) sesquisquare Mercury/Aries (23°47’)
Thursday, March 28 - Juno Rx/Virgo inconjunct Sun/Aries, 8°16’

Saturday, April 13 - Juno Rx/Virgo (6°33’) sesquisquare Mercury Rx/Aries (21°33’)
Saturday, April 20 - Juno Rx/Virgo sextile Vesta/Cancer, 6°18’
Interestingly - Pallas Athene Rx/Sagittarius will be within 1° of a square to Juno Rx/Virgo, beginning Friday, March 22 - but the square doesn’t mature (become exact) until just after Juno stations direct on April 21/22. Watch out for internal conflicts between work and partnerships (what would we really rather do, finish the project or go out on a date?). Finding the right balance is crucial. We could also have some issues with gender identity and sexuality, which may manifest when the square matures.

Astrology of March, 2023
Are you ready for the great transition? This upcoming month of March is presenting the momentous time for not only personal development and progress, but collective as well. With multiple planets finally exiting positions that they've been stationed in for years, particularly Saturn, who's been in a position of dignity since 2017, and Pluto who's been in Capricorn for 15 years and will finally ingress Aquarius where he will stay for 20. Have hope these big changes are bringing in goodness.
This period is marked with incredible changes that are going to be infrastructural and revolutionary. With the dwarf planet Ceres in retrograde motion and re-entering her dignity of Virgo this month, we can expect even more environmental catastrophe and upset globally as the fight for our earth intensifies in the month of March.
Re-shifting focus back to the planet of Saturn, on March 7th we have Saturn finally exiting Aquarius and entering ethereal, nebulus and profound Pisces. We're going to be seeing a dramatic shift in collective relationships to religion, escapism and fantasy. All of the people who had gotten into new age spirituality over the course of Saturn in Aqua are going to be leaving it behind to revolutionize the vestiges of traditional conventional religions. There's definitely going to be greater moral dilemmas, restriction of power and trials also surrounding religious institutions during this time. Our seas, oceans and lakes are going to become a focus for us during this period as Pisces forces us to reckon with the damage you've done to our waters. We may see an end to offshore drilling during this time. Themes of isolation are still present here however they are turned inward, we are no longer going to be allowed to escape into ourselves and our vices during this time.
With Venus and Juno entering Taurus mid March we can expect an even more dreamy, romantic and enchanted feeling to our month as we shift our focus towards money, our values and how business affects our morality. There's going to be a great focus on art, a revival of fashion, aesthetics and beauty in the mainstream especially with Jupiter joining Taurus this April, but I digress.
Mars has been in Gemini since August 20th of 2022 and will finally be exiting giving us a rest from that mental exertion anxiety and disquiet. He will be entering his fall, Cancer, heightening feelings of emotionality, the need for safety, national pride and family. Almost immediately he will be in a trinw with Saturn in Pisces showing a period of rebuilding and restructuring centered around home, spirituality and family. This is actually a very productive time and it builds us up to Pluto entering Aquarius which will be ushering in revolutions on a large scale, innovation and relief from hierarchical chains.
March Major transits:
2nd- Mercury in Pisces (detriment)
7th- Saturn in Pisces
12th- Juno in Taurus
16th- Venus in Taurus (dignified)
20th- sun in Aries (exalted)
23rd- pluto in aquarius
25th- mars in cancer(fall)

Re-Assessing Priorities, Relationships, & Finances: Juno Retrograde in Virgo
Juno, is an asteroid named after the Roman goddess associated with marriage and symbolizes the aspirations and obstacles encountered in dedicated partnerships. It provides insight on:
What qualities do we seek in a partner for long-term relationships
Our expectations and needs within a union
The dynamics of commitment and equality in our relationships
Areas where you may struggle with commitment or intimacy
Lessons you need to learn in order to have a healthy partnership
From Jan 12 to April 21, Asteroid Juno will station retrograde asking us to reconsider partnerships and commitments. Existing relationships may come under the microscope, prompting honest evaluations about needs, boundaries, and compatibility. Are partnerships fostering growth and mutual support, or breeding dissatisfaction and imbalance? During this period, we gain heightened awareness of imperfections within our enduring partnerships, allowing for the analysis of power dynamics. This transit encourages a deeper understanding of what commitment truly means to you. Is it about blind loyalty or a conscious choice? Does it manifest in grand gestures or everyday acts of care?
Tips for Navigating the Transit:
Engage in self-care: Prioritize your own well-being during this introspective period. Set boundaries, nourish your physical and emotional needs, and engage in activities that bring you joy.
Reassess roles and expectations: Evaluate the dynamics within your relationships. Are roles balanced and fulfilling? Are expectations realistic and healthy? Consider adjustments and renegotiations, if needed.
Refine your service and support: Analyze how you give your time and energy. Are you serving from a place of genuine passion or obligation? Focus on activities that nourish both you and those you support.
Review Commitments: Take a closer look at your commitments. Are there any adjustments or renegotiations that need to be made? Ensure that your commitments align with your values and priorities.
How will Juno Retrograde in Virgo impact your Business and Finances?
The Virgo sign is associated with meticulousness, organization, and critical thinking. When Juno is retrograde in this position, it encourages you to pause and reassess your business goals and financial priorities. Take a moment to reflect: Are you concentrating on the right aspects? Do your endeavors align with your values? This period calls for introspection and adjustments to ensure you're on the right course.
As Juno, the asteroid associated with commitment, goes into retrograde in Virgo, it might bring forth considerations related to business partnerships or collaborations. Evaluate the true mutual benefit in your current partnerships. Take note of any unresolved conflicts or power imbalances that demand addressing. This phase advocates for transparent and sincere communication with your partners, facilitating necessary adjustments.
Utilize Virgo's analytical tendencies to assess your finances at this time. Consider streamlining your budget, closely monitoring your expenses, and identifying areas for potential savings. Take the opportunity to review your investment portfolio, ensuring it aligns with your risk tolerance and long-term goals.
Pay attention to small details, particularly with Juno in retrograde in Virgo. Exercise caution when dealing with contracts, agreements, and paperwork. Prioritize thorough double-checking before committing to any decisions to avoid hasty choices.
In essence, the period of Juno retrograde in Virgo calls for a deliberate slowdown, self-reflection, and necessary adjustments. Avoid impulsive actions and focus on mindfulness, organization, and attention to detail. Through these practices, you can use this retrograde phase to establish a solid foundation for a more stable and prosperous future for your business and finances.
Tips for this Transit:
Declutter your workspace and get organized
Review your contracts and agreements
Be mindful of your spending
Communicate openly and honestly with your business partners
Be patient and don’t expect immediate results

Sorry this is late again! But things are getting hectic as we are facing a week of shifts and transformations.

Note: times are set to UTC. 
___________
15th
Mercury in Cancer sextiles Eros in Taurus Jupiter rx in Capricorn opposite Vesta in Cancer Saturn rx in Aquarius trines Sappho in Libra ☾♈ Moon Opposite Juno and Sappho in Libra ☾♈ Moon Squares Mercury in Cancer then Pluto rx in Capricorn
Energy: Today starts off the week with themes of reflecting on the nature of your work, not just your daily responsibilities, but things you feel called to do. What are your passions? Areas in life that inspire you? That call you to do work for it? These themes may pop up in the day especially as Jupiter rx in Capricorn is opposite Vesta in Cancer. Vesta the asteroid of our goals, ambitions and dedication opposite the planet of philosophy, authentic truth and expansion will bring up how we may act on our goals and ambitions by asking us to expand within. If you have been feeling stuck, channeling this energy may be a place to start. Mercury in Cancer will also sextile Eros in Taurus which will be a helpful harmonious push for us to communicate our desires. Another asteroid helping us with our work ethic and uncovering our truths will be Sappho as Saturn rx in Aquarius will be trining it in Libra which will help us create a bridge of our commitments and areas in life that inspire us to be our authentic selves. The planetary energy playing with the asteroids helps us to re-evaluate our methods and strategies regarding work, our thought process when it comes to making commitments towards our own projects or areas in life that inspire us and how we can take responsibility and commitment to follow our most authentic nature.
The lunar transits will amplify some of these longer transits as the moon will be interacting with some of these planets. First the moon will be opposite Juno and Sappho in Libra. This may highlight where we would feel emotionally fulfilled dedicating our energy towards. This energy (especially with Sappho in Libra) could bring up scenarios where we may find our muse or something that inspires us in another person. Take note of whatever this is as you will have time to reflect on it and incorporate more of what inspires you into your life with some additional astrological themes happening during Cancer season. Lastly the moon will square Mercury in Cancer and then afterwards Pluto rx in Capricorn. The square with mercury will bring up conflicting ideas that may make us have to sit and reflect on our own thoughts and notions on the subject. If you have had mental barriers blocking you from pursuing your goals or living authentically, it could be brought up during this window of time. Additionally moon and mercury square can bring up some disagreements rooted in emotional biases. It's a good time to give everyone space since it can be touchy. When the moon squares Pluto rx, intense emotions can be brought to the surface for us to face. This can be an intense time forcing us to acknowledge our shadows and transform from within so that we may be better aligned with our spirit.
Recommendations: With a lot of asteroid energy and lunar squares, today would be a great day for meditation. Focus on what inspires you to work towards your goals or what gives you that drive to work on projects. If you need inspiration you may find it today in another person. Attraction magic for friendships especially relationships revolving around working on creative projects could work well today. Barrier-breaking magic focusing on undoing beliefs that hold you back could be beneficial after the lunar squares. Since the moon is in Aries, taking paper of qualities you want to banish and burning them could be a satisfactory way of banishing those qualities, especially since the moon is waning. _____
16th
Venus rx in Gemini trines Juno in Libra ☾♈ Moon Squares Jupiter rx in Capricorn ☾♈ Moon Sextiles Sun in Gemini ☾ VOC 1:49 - 10:35 ☾♉ Moon enters Taurus ☾♉ Moon Squares Saturn rx in Aquarius ☾♉ Moon Sextiles Vesta in Cancer
Energy: Todays theme will revolve around devoting our energy towards our innermost values. Venus rx in Gemini will trine Juno in Libra giving us the focus to make commitments to things that truly reflect what we desire. As the moon is in it's waning crescent phase, this is a great time to clean house as well as shed and banish anything we no longer need to clear way for the next cycle (especially since we are in eclipse season). This energy will be amplified with the moon sextiling the Sun in Gemini giving us the incentive to wrap up any loose ends, clear what we no longer need and resolve any outstanding issues. It's notable that Venus rx is trining it's mini celestial body, Juno, on the day that the moon will sextile the sun because it's a point towards the end of the chapter for us to reflect on what we really need to commit to our values, to feel loved and honor ourselves before this lunar cycle ends and begins again next week when Venus will go direct.
Before the moon transits into Taurus it will square Jupiter rx in Capricorn creating tension for us to want to expand within. This may happen for most of us during the early morning so it could be reflected in our dreams (if you dream journal, take note). After the moon enters Taurus it will be squared by Saturn rx in Aquarius putting a weight on our responsibilities and causing us to reflect and strategize on tasks that we need to wrap up on. With the moon sextiling Vesta, we will have that inner boost to work towards our duties and strive towards our goals.
Recommendations: With the moon in it's waning crescent phase, it's a good time for cleansing, shedding and purging. Especially with a notable New Moon Solar eclipse happening (nearly coinciding with the Summer Solstice) it's a good time to clear out your home, change your wardrobe to summer clothes and clear out the energy. With Venus rx trine Juno it's a good time to reflect on your values and make moves to honor that. With the moon squaring Saturn rx and sextiling Vesta you will get the push to work on your tasks and tie up any loose ends. Revisit anything that needs to get done today and finish it to the best of your ability. _____
17th
☾♉ Moon Conjunct Uranus, Eros and Psyche in Taurus ☾♉ Moon Sextiles Ceres in Pisces and Mercury in Cancer
Energy: With the moon in it's waning crescent phase, especially before a powerful new moon Solar eclipse and start of a new season, it's a great time to shed what's no longer needed, banish energy that no longer serves you and cleanse to make way for something new. This energy will be amplified today as the Moon will conjunct Uranus causing change on an inner personal level that can also affect the home and our private space. It will be great to channel that energy towards changing out your wardrobe to a summer one or getting rid of things that you no longer need. On an energetic level it will be great upon reflection of what the transits of previous days have bought up to reflect on old habits and mindsets and change what no longer serves you internally. The moon will also conjunct Eros which will help us highlight our desires and needs and give us a boost to pursue what fulfills our desires emotionally. With the moon conjunct Psyche, the nature of our soul and current karmic path may come to the surface and influence our moods. This reflective period can be beneficial to journal on once the Moon sextiles Mercury in Cancer which will help us to communicate our emotions freely. This transit helps us be better and more creative with our words and links the mind and heart together. It's a great time to journal to self reflect or to even write poetry or creative writing. Any themes the moon and mercury sextile could help us express during this time can be the bigger theme for Mercury retrograde which will station there tomorrow. Taking note of it could highlight where you need to mentally reflect on during that time. Lastly with the moon sextiling Ceres, we may develop a nurturing need towards our space and close ones. This will also make the day a good one to clear out your space for the new cycle to come.
Recommendations: Clearing and cleansing your space, shadow work, mediation, journaling on your emotional state and doing tarot for Mercury that will station retrograde tomorrow. _____
18th
Mercury Retrogrades in Cancer Mars in Pisces sextiles Pluto rx in Capricorn Pluto rx in Capricorn opposite Vesta in Cancer ☾♉ Moon Trines Pluto rx and Jupiter rx in Capricorn ☾♉ Moon Sextiles Neptune and Mars in Pisces ☾ VOC 13:02 - 21:59 ☾♊ Moon enters Gemini ☾♊ Moon Trines Saturn rx in Aquarius and Sappho in Libra
Energy: Mercury stations retrograde today! It will only be here for 3 and a half weeks, yet it's a time to reflect on your state of mind, your decisions, thoughts and everything since the last mercury retrograde which ended on March 10th before the world completely collapsed (lol). It's a time to ask yourself what thoughts and beliefs no longer serves you, how some beliefs could have shaped that time frame from the last retrograde to now and to analyze beliefs fueled by your emotions as mercury will be stationed retrograde in watery Cancer and be retrograde for most of Cancer season.   More inner introspection will be highlighted by Pluto rx being opposite Vesta in Cancer which could transform how we use our energy and source of power to approach our goals. Additionally Mars in Pisces will sextile Pluto rx as well giving us the fire power to charge at our goals. Especially if you felt there were barriers before, this transit will help you tackle whatever project may have seemed to hard to take on. It's a good time to wrap up old projects especially with mercury retrograde will bring up those themes again.
The moon will trine Pluto rx and Jupiter rx giving a beneficial flow of energy helping us with our inner transformation and inner expansion. With this boost starting off mercury retrograde, we can get a chance on additional insight to help us through this cycle. The Moon will sextile Neptune and Mars in Pisces giving us a push to focus on our spirituality and increasing our psychic ability along with giving us additional drive, energy and confidence to get anything done. This is a great time for creativity or reflecting on our spiritual path or reviewing any tasks that need to be wrapped up or reflected on. The moon will then enter Gemini and trine Saturn rx in Aquarius giving us another boost to accomplishing work, especially with projects that we have neglected or need to focus on. Another helpful push to your process can be when the moon also trines Sappho in Libra giving you luck in finding that spark that grabs your fascination. Channeling this beneficial energy can help us in our creative pursuits or help us to wrap up projects.
Recommendations: Wrapping up projects will be helpful with the aspects happening today. Using divination can help you understand what themes this mercury retrograde will bring to you. Meditation and introspection. Shadow work can be beneficial with the moon trining Jupiter rx and Pluto rx. Anything creative or spiritual. Energy work with magic should get a boost today but it's good to use it on chapters you need to close or projects to wrap up on as Mercury Retrograde will help you reflect and revisit things you need to finish instead of starting anything new.

19th
☾♊ Moon Conjunct Venus rx in Gemini ☾♊ Moon Trines Juno in Libra ☾♊ Moon Sextiles Chiron in Aries ☾♊ Moon Squares Ceres in Pisces
Energy: Today is the final day of Spring! We may already feel like we are in the warm sunny days of Summer, but the equinox is coming late tomorrow. Today just has some lunar transits as the moon makes it's way through Gemini. The emotional themes the moon will bring up today in our moods will be focusing on our values and devoted commitments along with how we feel nurtured, loved and appreciated. First the moon will conjunct Venus rx in Gemini bringing up emotional themes of self love, how we feel loved and how we honor our values. The moon closely afterwards will trine Juno in Libra giving us a beneficial flow of energy to channel what we value and what deserves our commitment. In this window of time we may emotionally understand what we would want to commit ourselves to and using that energy could be great for manifestation or preparing a spell for tomorrow on the solstice. With the moon sextiling Chiron we have a positive push for inner healing and understanding our past as well as overcoming any troubling memories. With the moon waning and mercury in retrograde (as well as the last day of spring! A lot of symbolism with endings!) it's a good time to bid farewell to the pain these memories could bring as you can allow healing to take place with this sextile. Lastly the moon will square Ceres in Pisces which will give you the need to nurture yourself. This can tie in with the themes of the moon first conjunct with Venus rx where you can honor yourself by doing some self love magic and take some time to nurture yourself. This is also a good time to reach out to loved ones and extend some care their way if they have been feeling lonely.
Recommendations: With all the transits it's a great day for some self love magic and healing yourself. Meditation with venus's frequency can help with self love. Bath magic is a great way to channel venusian energy and be nurturing towards yourself. It's also a good way to cleanse before the new season. Other than the transits, it's a good time to prepare for Litha or the Summer Solstice! Getting candles, if you have a fire-safe space with a fire-safe pit, then getting materials for a bonfire could be cool! Otherwise using sunny yellow candles, decorating with summer flowers like sunflowers, day lillies (be cautious with lillies if you have cats though), daisies and roses. Thinking of ways you'd like to bring Summer into your home and life! _____
20th
SUMMER SOLSTICE! Sun enters Cancer Mars in Pisces sextiles Jupiter rx in Capricorn ☾♊ Moon Squares Neptune and Mars in Pisces ☾ VOC 22:47 - 7:01
Energy: Welcome to Summer!! Also welcome to Cancer Season! The official solstice won't take place until later in the day (London time around 10:43 - EST at 5:43), so for most of the day the sun will still be in Gemini. This summer is going to be a very reflective one, especially Cancer season may bring it's usual summertime sadness in the form of hot melancholy as we will have even more planets retrograding. Soon Neptune is going into retrograde and Mercury has already joined the team. The planets that will soon leave rx is Venus next week yet that's it. Today's summer solstice is going to feel fiery and fun as excitable Mars sextiles the planet of partying, expansion and abundance, Jupiter. This theme will make you feel courageous, outgoing and bring good luck. With jupiter retrograde this transit can show you that if you stay true and authentic to yourself as you courageously pursue your goals, you can achieve anything! The moon will square Neptune and Mars in Pisces giving an intense and also otherworldly mood. With the moon and neptune square we may feel like we are floating in a summery dream land yet the push out of reality means we need to be more responsible as we can fall easily pray to deception, forgetfulness and get easily influenced by substances. If you're the type of witch that likes to fly on sabbats you should be more careful during this time as you may fly too far. With the moon and mars square we may feel more prone to acting on impulse or taking action, but you should think before you act or else chaos can ensue. The key to enjoying this transit is to release any frustrations or bursts of energy in a controlled way. Channeling it towards magic could give your spells a fiery boost!
Recommendations: Celebrating the Summer Solstice! Bringing in Cancer season through bath magic, cooking, playing music, especially summer music. Having a bonfire if you have a safe place for it. Drinking summery drinks and potions, making spells for courage to pursue goals and channeling strength to break through inner barriers (this will help as tomorrow is the solar eclipse), doing divination for insights over the summer retrogrades and the eclipse tomorrow. _____
21st
New Moon in Cancer, Solar Eclipse ☾♋ Moon enters Cancer ☾♋ Moon Conjunct Sun and Vesta in Cancer ☾♋ Moon Opposite Pluto rx and Jupiter rx in Capricorn ☾♋ Moon Squares Chiron in Aries and Juno and Sappho in Libra ☾♋ Moon Sextiles Uranus in Taurus
Energy: We finish this week with a transformative Solar Eclipse as the new moon enters Cancer! This is not quite the end of eclipse season since the next full moon in Capricorn is also an eclipse so there is still time for more sudden changes and transformations, yet this eclipse is different from external change cause it's all about inner change. Solar Eclipses are a transformative time where our will and hearts are aligned due to the sun and moon conjunction but sudden change, epiphanies and transformation is brought from within in order for us to evolve and be better aligned with our karmic paths. Eclipses are still a force of undoing so this may be us shedding away any beliefs that have been keeping us in mental prisons in order for us to move beyond those bars. It's not a good time to charge magical items that you usually want to use to boost spells unless you want to channel that type of inner undoing energy. A lot of themes of changes are brought today with the moon sextiling Uranus in Taurus giving us a push to create change in our personal space and within (it's a great time to break habits), and the moon being opposite Pluto rx and Jupiter rx in capricorn helping us to understand our inner transformation and inner expansion and truths through outside influences. The moon will also conjunct Vesta in Cancer bringing up moods revolving around our ambitions and how we pursue our goals. With the moon squaring Juno in Libra we may reflect on our commitments and feel called to strategize how we can devote ourselves to what we value the most. This will be amplified by the moon and Sappho square asking us to pursue our true interests that speaks to our authenticity. Lastly the moon will square Chiron in Aries that may bring up painful emotions or past memories that may feel painfully amplified by this solar eclipse but it could be the catalyst to force us to make changes in order to heal.
Recommendations: This is a great day for shadow work and exploring yourself from within to see what needs to change. Meditation could help along with divination. Charging magical items such as crystals for general use can bring chaotic energy such as undoing type energy into your craft that you may not want. You can channel this into solar water if you want to harness the destructive energy of the eclipse but it's not recommended to charge it on all of your tools. Barrier-breaking magic to undo obstacles would be great for this day. If you feel more focused on yourself and your strategy other than outside obstacles then thinking of habits you'd like to break and making a commitment to change them can help especially with the Moon sextiling Uranus. _____

🔮 Weekly Astrological Forecast 🔮
Astrology Forecast for the week of 11/9 — 11/15
These are the major planetary transits and aspects of the week. My interpretations are general run-downs of the energies present. **All times mentioned are Eastern US Time**
Monday, November 9th
🤱🏻 Ceres moves into Pisces
Ceres, the Great Mother asteroid, will be moving out of Aquarius and into Pisces, shifting us from air to water, from intellect to emotions. Ceres in Pisces is the ultimate unconditional loving mother archetype. She sacrifices herself for others, and her altruism, care, empathy and depth of love radiate in her truest form and highest vibration. The shadow side of Ceres in Pisces can have a victim-complex or try to always be a martyr or savior, and can confuse enabling and codependence with unconditional love. In order to love others with the nurturing love of Ceres, you must first have love for the self, which can be achieved by expressing clear and healthy boundaries.
Monday, November 9th
✂️ Venus in Libra opposite Mars Rx in Aries
Around 11AM, Venus in Libra will oppose retrograde Mars in Aries. Venus aspecting Mars has been a signature of this Mars Rx. She squared Mars just before his Rx on 9/9 and now opposes him just before he goes direct. This creates tension between Yin and Yang, masculine and feminine. Venus in Libra is a rational lover, but her shadow side can become codependent. Mars in Aries is assertive, raw and primal, and his shadow side can become too aggressive, selfish and combative. Dualities, polarities, power imbalances and personal differences in your relationships may be brought to the surface now. These may be make or break. With Mars making tense aspects to Venus, this energy could arouse the need to cut ties or end certain relationships/leave certain situations that are no longer working.
Monday, November 9th
💭 Sun in Scorpio trine Neptune Rx in Pisces
This peaceful trine will occur around noon, aligning the Sun, our conscious self and ego, with Neptune, the planet of spirituality and idealism. This influence is dreamy, floaty, romantic and creative. Give yourself space to breathe, to be, to meditate. Pay attention to your intuition and emotions.
Tuesday, November 10th
🦂 Mercury moves into Scorpio
Near 5PM, Mercury will move from Libra to Scorpio, shifting the mind and intellect from air to water, from logical thought to feeling emotions, from conscious to unconscious. Mercury in Scorpio is deep and penetrating, always wanting to get to the bottom of things. This is a great influence for shadow work, research, study, therapy, and deep, meaningful conversations with others. Watch out for intense negative emotions surfacing such as jealousy, possessiveness or power/control dynamic imbalances in your relationships.
Thursday, November 12th
🔱 Jupiter and Pallas Athena conjunct in Capricorn
Around 2PM, Jupiter conjoins Pallas Athena at 22’50°, followed by Pluto conjoining Pallas at 22’41°, linking the Jupiter-Pluto conjunction happening later today with the asteroid Goddess of War, politics, intelligence and wisdom. Pallas and Jupiter together is revealing the “bigger picture” at play. Together, they can magnify patriarchal thought, power and control dynamics in your relationships, and revealing things in the political and social environment. Imagine this aspect as a veil being lifted and something being revealed.
Thursday, November 12th
‼️ Jupiter conjunct Pluto in Capricorn
This is the third and final Jupiter-Pluto conjunction of 2020. Jupiter is like a trigger planet, and when it conjoins with another planet, it takes that influence up a few notches. From today until the 17th, Jupiter with Pluto will be amplifying the Pluto-Eris square, for the third and final time in 2020.
**Many astrologers do not talk about Eris, as she is a new body discovered in 2005. But historically, new bodies are associated with what was unfolding in the world and the collective upon their discovery, so her role as a disruptor is clearly seen in what is happening on the planet right now. At the best, Jupiter brings light to the darkness of Pluto, and he can bring opportunities for massive transformation, evolution and rebirth. But Jupiter can also magnify the shadow side of Pluto; a ruthless desire for power and control, behind the scenes domination, subversive manipulation and jealous, vengeful energy. Pluto is deep and extreme, while Jupiter is adding more fuel to the already hot and heavy Saturn-Pluto-Eris fire. This is a great time for shamanic journeys, shadow work, and diving into the depths of being. But what you find when you dive might be dark and intense. The whole world is going through a dark time right now. People are being forced to stay home more, be alone with less distractions, and alone with their emotions and deepest, darkest feelings. Your greatest asset right now will be your ability to embrace the shadows, confront and face your fears and anxieties, and really take the time to do inner work on yourself. Pay attention to what’s going on around you. The truth can set you free, but it might piss you off or hurt you first. These things need to be felt and dealt with.
Friday, November 13th
👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩 Neptune Rx in Pisces trine Juno in Scorpio
Just before noon, retrograde Neptune will form a gentle trine with Juno, the marriage asteroid, in Scorpio. Neptune-Juno together can elevate our hearts to a space of higher love and romanticism. This is a positive influence for mystical relationships, existing ones or new ones forming that could be past life connections. Be aware of this idealistic influence and don’t put others on a pedestal. Instead, use this energy for meditation, connecting with your higher self and deepening your healthy relationships with others.
Friday, November 13th
⚠️ Mars stations Direct in Aries
Around 7:30PM, Mars in Aries will finally station direct at 15’13°, completing the retrograde cycle that began on 9/9. Mars is the will, the warrior and drive within us, and he is now direct in the sign he rules, so his power is full throttle. He may tend to be overly Yang/masculine energy, expressing aggression, anger, rage, dominance and violence at his most negative state. Mars has triggered the Pluto-Eris square twice already, one more occurring 12/22. Pluto and Eris have been exposing behind-the-scenes power dynamics. With Mars turning direct, aggression and action-oriented energy is dominant, so be careful with your words, actions and ego today.
Saturday, November 14th
🤝 Venus in Libra trine North Node in Gemini
Early morning around 8AM, Venus in her ruling sign of Libra will trine the lunar mean North Node in Gemini. Destined and fated events may occur in your relationships and partnerships. Beauty, balance and harmony are in focus. Both bodies in Air signs are focused on communication, collaboration and seeking the truth. Pay attention to your relationships and find balance today.
Saturday, November 14th
🔍 Sun in Scorpio sextile Pluto-Jupiter in Capricorn
The Sun in Scorpio will sextile Pluto at 3PM, and Jupiter at 11PM, both in Capricorn. The sextile with Pluto enhances this double-down energy, allowing us to get focused on making change happen in our lives. It brings us out of our victim mentalities and allows us to embrace our inner power. The sextile with Jupiter is amazing for opening up and expanding our minds, and accessing the depths of our shadows and secrets.
Sunday, November 15th
🌑 New Moon exact in Scorpio
The New Moon at 23’18° Scorpio will be exact shortly after midnight, commencing a new lunar cycle that will be focused on the depths, mysteries and shadows. This is a time to DIVE DEEP and bring hidden things to light. This New Moon is sextile Jupiter-Pluto, which amplifies the transformational capacity of this lunation. The Moon will make a tense aspect with Eris, the Goddess of Discord and Chaos, bringing in some sudden and unexpected energy that could be ungrounding or destabilizing, but also liberating and revealing if we choose to use the information that comes to light wisely.
Sunday, November 15th
🗯 Mercury in Scorpio quincunx Chiron Rx in Aries
At 4:30AM, Mercury in Scorpio quincunx Chiron Rx in Aries creates tension between the mind and intellect and the wounded healer planetoid. Both bodies are in Mars-ruled signs, which can make for intense, conflict-oriented or aggressive conversations and exchanges. The potential for healing or overcoming these aggressive tendencies is possible if you bring consciousness to your words and actions and how it will affect others. Avoid being petty, spiteful or unnecessarily stirring up drama. Also don’t over-react or make any impulsive decisions under this influence.
Sunday, November 15th
💢 Venus in Libra square Pluto in Capricorn
This transit creates tension between the Goddess of Love and the Lord of the Underworld. Venus-Pluto can be highly sexual, passionate and intense, but it is very potent. This square can bring up all kinds of shadows, from possessiveness and jealousy, to power and control imbalances, or to other forms of toxicity.
Since Venus moved into Libra she has been hit with several tense transits with Chiron, Uranus, Jupiter, Pluto, Saturn, Neptune and Eris. The surface facade of relationships is really being tested. Is the foundation of your relationship steady enough to handle the turbulence? Relationships that are solid and grounded will be showing their strength right now. Balance between the self and the other is key. This is not a time to be selfish or to be too giving.
Sunday, November 15th
📰 Pallas Athena in Capricorn square Eris Rx in Aries
Pallas Athena, the Wisdom and Warrior Goddess, will square retrograde Eris, Goddess of Chaos and Discord, around 7PM. Something big might come up politically. Something is going on behind the scenes. Pallas is working to magnify what needs to be seen, while Eris is pulling back the curtain to reveal the shadows beneath. Pallas also triggers the Pluto-Eris square this week (11/12-11/15) while Jupiter triggers Pluto-Pallas (11/12). Something is developing politically.

Retrograde planets and transits
Tumblr media
When planets retrograde, they appear to be moving backwards from our point of view on earth. We’re most familiar with Mercury retrograde because it happens 3 times a year, but all the planets retrograde (except Sun and Moon, which for chart purposes we call planets) as well as other bodies like Chiron and Juno. During retrogrades, a planet makes a loop by moving back through degrees it already passed, before turning direct (or forward) again.
Tumblr media
Planets are so big that when they change direction, they seem to slow down nearly to a stop - this is called a station. The planet stations retrograde as it slows to turn backwards, and then stations direct when it slows to turn forward again. Its energy is most intense during these stations.
Retrogrades make the expression of the planet go inward. They are times to reevaluate, review, slow down and reassess.  What happens during them relates to what the planet represents- Mercury retrograde is known for travel delays, technology glitches, and communication issues. 
Because of the loop that a planet makes during retrograde, if it transits something in your chart, you will experience that transit two or three times. Often, this will play out as a cycle with events, themes, or influences that unfold with each pass of the transit. The effect is often internal, but sometimes something will happen that can be seen from outside. 
A small example of a transit with a visible effect- Tessa had transiting Chiron sextile her Venus in April/May of this year. Then Chiron retrograded and sextiled her Venus again in August/September, and will make a third and final transit in March 2021 when it turns around and goes direct again.
This transit said something might happen which would trigger her sensitivity, or irritate or upset the sensitivities of others. And that a defensive reaction could amplify the situation. The transit was close to exact in May when the incident at Lions Gate hospital happened when she was criticized online for not wearing a mask.
Tumblr media
Chiron retrograded in August, and the transit came again, only with Chiron moving backwards, so a time of reevaluation. The transit was nearly exact again on Sept. 12 when she posted this picture:
Tumblr media
This was the first time she posted an image of herself in a mask, and seems on the same theme as the May transit. Chiron relates to woundedness, healing and teaching. It’s in Aries: individuality and asserting yourself. It was transiting Tessa’s Venus in Gemini- Venus relates to beauty and how you express yourself through your appearance, including clothing. And Gemini is a sign of communication, including social media. 
Chiron will go direct, and she will get a third instance of this transit in March 2021.

When I started getting sick (at the spring equinox), transiting Venus retrograde in Aries was applying to a square to my natal Mars. Venus went back thru the degrees of Aries, into Pisces, and forward thru the degrees of Aries again, making a square to my Mars again.
Mars represents vitality, so whenever a transiting retrograde planet makes a hard aspect to your Mars, you can predict a drain of vitality, unless you already have that planet retrograde in your natal chart, then you’re immune to it.
If a direct (non retrograde) transiting planet makes a hard aspect to your Mars, it can actually be very motivating, depending on how you handle the challenging energy of a square, opposition, quincunx, etc.
If a retrograde transiting planet makes a soft aspect to one of your natal planets, I wonder, how does this affect you?  I’m guessing it would give someone necessary reflection, introspection that gives them an improved life perspective.
Anyone who has a little experience with transits can inbox me commenting on this if you like.
Right now we have Neptune, Chiron, Saturn, Pluto, Astraea, Juno, and Hygeia retrograde. The Nodes are stationary (i haven’t yet delved into the topic of stationary nodes, so if you have, please inbox me).
I recommend not making any decisions revolving romantic relationships/committed partnerships while Juno is retrograde. Juno is stationary on August 25th and 26th, I suspect there will be lots of relationship drama those days, but it might be like a culmination of whatever drama happened while it was retrograde.
Juno is direct in Capricorn August 27th and onward. Please note, however, that many of you have Neptune and Uranus in Capricorn; at some point Juno will be conjunct your Uranus and at another point it will be conjunct your Neptune, these are times that you’ll experience chaos and confusion in your partnership. Do not break up with someone or get into a new relationship when Juno is conjunct your Neptune and Uranus, check the transits for yourself to find out when this happens for you. If you don’t know how to check transits, then private message me and we can work it out... For example, on November 1st, Juno is at 14 degrees of Capricorn, and throughout November it slowly moves up thru the degrees. Juno spends two to three days in each degree... Many of you on tumblr probably have Uranus and Neptune at the mid or late degrees of Capricorn, so please be mindful about how you handle relationships throughout November. The haze of Neptune will prevent you from knowing what you truly want, and the explosive nature of Uranus can make your relationships go haywire.
Hygeia goes direct August 18th, so I’d say don’t make drastic moves with health until then or later...
Saturn stations August 24th, goes direct August 26th, but is still in the shadow period for quite a while afterward.

Virgo New Moon, Uranus and Persephone
August 29, 2019 by
Dia Holly Hemlock
August 30th 2019: Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Juno form a stellium in Virgo spanning nine degrees, all trine Uranus, marking the end of August with paralyzing shock. The New Moon at 6° Virgo forms an exact trine to Uranus Rx 6° Taurus, and grand earth trine with asteroid Persephone 5° Capricorn, reinforcing the mood of basically being in Hell. We’re taught that Hell is a place of punishment and pain, and many of us have reactively decided that there is no such thing. Hades is a place. But the pain is not a punishment, and you do not have to stay there forever.
The collective has turned a blind eye to deforestation for decades, dismissing environmental activists as fringe kooks and voluntarily giving billions of dollars to corporations that are the most responsible, in exchange for coffee and fast food. And now, Uranus stationed retrograde on August 11th reveals the truth: the Amazon is in agony, and most of our bodies are in similar condition.
All personal planets obscured by the glare of the Sun in Virgo feels ice cold.  When matters of life and death hang over our heads and there is nothing we can control but our own attempts to manage the wounds we already have… Numb, when faced with our own powerlessness (and with Saturn exact on the south node the spotlight is on a sense of lack, the resources we need but do not have, the things we built and then lost).
Persephone stationed direct on August 24th, and will spend the rest of 2019 transiting conjunct the south node, Saturn, and Pluto.  I walk through the valley of the shadow of death all alone but I fear no evil because I AM Inanna, consciousness is a spiral, and I’ve been in this cave before. Persephone’s previous transit of Capricorn was from December 24th 2013 to March 15th 2014. It was during that exact time period that chronic pain took over my life and transformed who I thought I was and what I was capable of, in ways that I perceived as mutilation and loss, powerless to control, forced to find power in surrender.
Expanding to make room for more sorrow is a survival skill- it’s one that can easily go wrong, creating habits that reinforce tendencies antithetical to thriving- but when situations that we can’t control, require us to survive, expanding to make room for more sorrow is a survival skill.
Tumblr media
We romanticise the Underworld experience too much, the transformative process of letting go and learning how to find power in powerlessness and carry on, is Hell.
“My political activism grew out of my spiritual understandings of the earth as the living Mother, because the Goddess is injured wherever there is injustice, wanton cruelty, poverty, and pollution.” -Monica Sjöö
“My strength is as the strength of ten, because my heart is pure.” -Alfred Lord Tennyson

Transiting Juno stations retrograde
Timeline (current events in bold):
Friday, May 13, 10:11 UT - transiting Juno enters pre-retrograde shadow, 7°41’ Pisces
Monday, July 25, 06:50 UT - transiting Juno stations retrograde, 21°31’ Pisces
Sunday, October 23, 13:05 UT - transiting Juno stations direct, 7°41’ Pisces
Saturday, December 24, 13:18 UT - transiting Juno exits post-retrograde shadow, 21°31’ Pisces
Three months of inwardly-turned Juno/Pisces, testing our highest ideals about her areas:
All one-to-one relationships - this is always the obvious one, and we’re all going to struggle at least a little with “disillusionment, withdrawal, escapism into fantasy and self-deception, martyrdom and victimization” when the reality of our relationship doesn’t meet our ideals. What I wish more people did with Juno, ie work on “what kind of a partner can I be,” we can at least think about a little bit?
Protocol and social ritual - especially with the one/only major aspect Juno makes with an outer planet - a sextile to Uranus/Taurus - we may be re-thinking this area a lot more willingly. Why do we do half the “polite” things we do, anyway? I’ve never understood asking people “how are you” when you honestly don’t want to know.
The powerless (women, battered wives, abused children, minorities, the disabled, victims) - in the US, this transit is going to square our natal Mars/Gemini, our natal Ascendant/Descendant axis in Sagittarius/Gemini, and square our natal Uranus/Gemini. It’s also going to conjunct our natal Ceres-Nessus conjunction. The Christofascist Republicans are threatening to take away access to birth control and gay marriage. And consider the latest “trends” in school safety: little bulletproof shelters in every classroom; clear backpacks and bookbags. We’re doing everything except addressing the real issues: the too-easy availability of guns, and toxic masculinity. Arrgh.
The atmosphere (weather, climate, storms) - you would think that, with Juno retrograding in Pisces, there would be some confusion about predicting bad weather. Be ready for anything, I think, if “it” can happen in your place. (For example, Ms M, in beautiful landlocked Colorado, doesn’t have to worry about hurricanes - but she needs to beware of flash floods and wildfires.)
The only major aspect Juno Rx will make to an outer planet happens on Sunday, August 21, in the form of a sextile to a newly-retrograde Uranus/Taurus. (Give it about a week on either side.) maybe we can use that sextile to re-imagine how we “do” Juno.

Moon-Venus-Ceres 11/6 & Healing Trauma
Tumblr media
Late tonight/early tomorrow the Venus-ruled Libra Moon joins Venus and illuminates her conjunction to Ceres, (sustainer of humanity and mother of Persephone.) I’ve mentioned this before, but it seems as though in her time in the underworld of Scorpio, Venus has taken on much of the energy/persona of Persephone: Her wounding at being abducted (and presumably raped by) her uncle, her helplessness in her circumstances, her discovery of her sexual power, and ultimately (eventually) her return from the land of the dead as the triumphant queen...
Tumblr media
This passage by Venus back in to Libra is not the emergence of The Queen after a long dark night of the soul and a lot of self-mastery, however. Libra, afterall, is the entrance to hell, not the exit. I see this moment as a weeping persephone running from the mouth of the cave and into the nurturing arms of her mother, (Ceres/Demeter) knowing full well that she must return to the abyss once again... This time though, when she returns she’s playing for keeps.
This venus retrograde has brought up so much deep wounding for so many people - not just women, but especially women with sexual trauma - and it has brought the discussion of trauma in general to the very front burner of social consciousness. Trauma is a human condition. It affects all of us to one degree or another and it would seem, for the first time in history, that there is public dialogue on a mass scale starting to happen about how to make it okay to expose those vulnerable and wounded parts of ourselves and share our stories in order to address and heal that trauma. I personally believe we as a species need to do so in the name of (in the words of @rhagoddess) “our own liberation and the liberation of all people.” I feel that this journey Venus has been taking is a reflection of this process.
The day that Venus stations direct (11/16), she trines The Moon and Mars in Aquarius, facilitating healing through an understanding of the role the man in her life plays and his transgressions against her (Pluto/Hades, played here by Mars). Perhaps she sees his own trauma that has caused his onerous actions, and is able to see him in a different light... to allow for forgiveness and perhaps to catch a glimpse of the possibility of moving on. This trine between Mars and Venus actually perfects (is exact) on 11/9 - the same time that The Moon is exactly conjunct Mercury. What a fitting time for a meeting of the heart and mind!
On 12/2 Venus begins her descent back (forward) in to the realm of Pluto/Hades... Because forward truly is the only way through. (Scorpio is traditionally ruled by Mars who is square the asteroid Persephone in Scorpio as I write this, I might add… No coincidences.) Here our heroine Persephone, played by Venus, begins her true journey. She will have retrieved some new pieces of awareness - tools for her second pass through the labyrinth - during her brief time at home in Libra. This time she knows what it will take to shed the cloak of victimhood and become the true Queen of The Underworld. This time she has the secrets of the Elusinian Mysteries of death and rebirth, taught to her by her mother... This time she is empowered and goes bravely and willingly into the darkness.
Tumblr media
On the 1st of next year, these three (The Moon, Ceres & Venus) meet once again, in Scorpio, and at this time they are trine Mars & Chiron. I predict that a profound healing of the divine masculine and feminine will be made possible by this transit… Let’s hope that it manifests on the world stage… I don’t know what that would look like but I’d like to imagine it in to being. What a way to ring in the new year, eh? (Incidentally, 1 week later Venus enters Sagittarius at the same time that Uranus stations direct. New beginnings abound.)
Chiron actually plays a role in this current transit as well, as does Juno, the goddess of marriage. The two are forming a yod to these three, offering an opportunity for either healing or further wounding (Chiron) of the power dynamics in relationships (Juno) between the feminine and masculine (not necessarily read as male and female, thankyouverymuch.) Uranus also sits on the midpoint between these two, opposing the stellium and doing his change thang:
Tumblr media
This configuration offers a VERY potent tension that (unlike most things in this line of subject matter) has more feminine than masculine components. If you’re still reading this, I’d like to know how this is manifesting for you. If you’re not sure and you’d like to know you can email me with your birth details (date, time, place) at [email protected] and I can try to give you an idea.
Back to the subject of healing trauma and empowerment.
It’s my belief that the enormous amount of barbaric hatred that we’re seeing surface recently in the US is like much like the boil that rises as an indication of a deep sickness, and that the sickness is unhealed trauma. This sickness is caused by a culture of shunning and silencing those who act “inappropriately” from a place of suppressed trauma, or who attempt to reach out and express that trauma at the risk of appearing weak or needy...
Tumblr media
It is also my belief that the cause of much of this trauma is a rift between the masculine and feminine parts of the whole consciousness of humanity. Not only does that not mean male/female or men/women, it doesn’t mean just relationship dynamics either - although that is where everything plays out. The imbalance I’m referring to is inherent within the polarization of the two, rather than the integration.
A large part of what I believe causes this rift is the fact that the feminine side of consciousness (intuition, empathy, receptivity and nurturance) is denied in the vast majority of the populace. And I don’t just mean by men, though the imbalance is further reflected in the way that society and the male gender tend to reject this part of themselves the most. Ultimately it isn’t about gender (of which there are more than two) at all - it’s about wholeness. If we can’t figure out how to reintegrate these pieces of our consciousness and figure it out fast we are in for a much bigger problem than the battle of the sexes.
I’d love to know what role you feel you have to play in the human drama. Leave me a comment. :)
Peace, Love and Star Stuff.

Astrology of Today – Wednesday, August 29, 2018
Aug 27, 2018 by Annie Leave a Comment
 August 29, 2018 – Click to enlarge
Today’s Moon:
The Moon is in Aries.
The Moon is waning and in its Full phase.
We are in between a Full Moon (which occurred on the 26th in the sign of Pisces) and the Last Quarter Moon (which will happen on September 2nd).
Retrogrades/Stations:
Mercury is in its post-retrograde shadow until September 2nd.
Mars is no longer retrograde and is in its post-retrograde shadow, too, until October 8th (Mars was retrograde from June 26th to August 27th).
Also retrograde: Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, and Chiron.
**Times are Eastern Daylight Time (EDT).
 Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:
Aries
Aries
The Moon spends the day in your sign, dear Aries, and you’re likely to be in the spotlight in some manner. Your emotional needs feel pressing. Decisions are hard to come by, though, mainly because a lot is left up in the air. Tensions with work or competitive feelings can interfere with clear thinking. As well, a recurring problem may raise its head now. Making adjustments is important today – you’ll have plenty of time for new things later! While you can feel energetically strong and ready to take on a challenge, there are details to take care of first. Today holds some good energy for reinforcement through someone close to you. You’re recognizing your priorities on practical levels, and this feels good.
Taurus
Taurus
You’re likely to feel a little insular today, dear Taurus, and pleasantly so! The Moon spends the day in your privacy sector, and you may need a break from the more demanding or hectic pace of everyday life. You’re gathering your forces and building your energy. Even so, conversations flow well. Do your best not to attempt to control or over-manage things, which can lead to unnecessary stress. A Mercury-Pluto aspect may seem to pull up an old and irritating matter relating to lack of trust, or a nagging problem for another shot at resolving it.  Even with the Moon in a hidden, private sector of your solar chart, you’re in a good position for getting along well with others. You are seeing your priorities and gravitating towards people and situations that support you.
Gemini
Gemini
The Moon spends the day in your friendly, impartial solar eleventh house today, dear Gemini, and you seek out activities that help round out your life and experiences in happy ways. There is some tendency to either doubt yourself or have to deal with blocks to your progress, and the need to slow down is likely, however. If you feel others have been controlling you or your money, or if worry about a relationship has been nagging at you recently, then frustrations can dominate now. Old and persistent problems — minor ones — are likely to re-emerge today with a Mercury-Pluto aspect in force. Weighing pros and cons makes sense now, although it may keep you in a state of limbo! Try not to do this for too long if you can help it. Today holds good energy for connecting with a partner or project, however. There is pleasant intensity as well as determination with you now. This can be a strong day for making lifestyle changes and adjustments.
Cancer
Cancer
The Moon spends the day in your performance sector, dear Cancer, and you’re more alert to your reputation or responsibilities. Even so, this is a strong day for friendships and the pursuit of happiness goals, so you’re likely to do some balancing acts now. A recurring Mercury-Pluto aspect influencing the day can point to underlying tensions in close relationships, or there is a small delay that requires backtracking, frustrating you. A persistent problem may resurface for your attention, requiring you to make some adjustments. The efforts you put in now, as distracting as they may be, can ultimately serve you well. Also today, you are bringing out the best in a friend or devising useful strategies. You see the practical side of things more clearly, which helps you prioritize.
Leo
Leo
The Moon spends the day in your sector of spirit, dear Leo, and this boosts your ability to glide through the day — this despite a multitude of small problems with Mercury-Pluto influencing the day. This can be about a persistent issue that hasn’t yet been resolved, and with Pluto in your work and health sector, it can relate to adjustments needed in these areas. It may be that your ambition or competitive feelings are getting in the way of easy living and conversation now. Pressures to get things done can interfere with personal enjoyment, and while the key to resolution may not yet be in the cards, the adjustments you make now will help you get there a little faster. Also today, there is supportive, reinforcing energy related to your money and worth, as well as career and reputation. It’s a good day for taking steps towards meaningful long-term changes along financial, business, and career lines.
Virgo
Virgo
Today can be strong for new insights into your inner workings, dear Virgo, as well as for research related to work or health. Mind you, there can be the need to deal with a recurring problem now, and while you’re excited to sink your teeth into a meaty project or ambitious undertaking, some details may need attention. Watch for micromanaging a situation in which you’re better off letting run its natural course, as doing so is unlikely to get you closer to your goal, but it can lead to unnecessary stress. Also today, the Sun in your sign forms a parallel with Juno, and you’re likely to get to a more empowered place by allowing others their freedoms. You might gain new insight into a relationship or feel a partner’s full support. This can also point to good news from afar or the opening up of an educational or travel opportunity.
Libra
Libra
With the Moon in your solar seventh house all day, dear Libra, you can be very relationship-minded, and a significant person in your life or partner can be helpful or even inspirational, to boot. There is some tendency, though, for conflicting feelings or a challenging decision. Consider that micromanaging your personal life can prevent you from enjoying new experiences or diversifying. You could suffer from tunnel vision at times today. Today is good for taking care of nagging problems and details, but you may discover that a persistent issue is not yet ready to resolve. Do what you can, but avoid putting in so much effort that you waste away the day. This is a good time, in fact, to make a healthy lifestyle change. You have a good sense of what may be dragging you down.
Scorpio
Scorpio
The Moon continues its transit of your work and health sector, dear Scorpio, spending all day here and pulling up a need to get things into order. Your desire is to accomplish a lot, but there can be some delays or rethinking to do as a persistent problem emerges and distracts you. Mercury rules our thoughts and conversations, and today, is in an awkward relationship with your ruler, Pluto, currently transiting your communications sector. This aspect has shown up a lot recently due to Mercury’s retrograde in July and August. While you may not resolve an issue now, you can be a little more confident that you have the right information to work with now. You may not feel one hundred percent understood, but you, of all the signs, are the most comfortable in this position! Relationships with key people in your life can strengthen today, and that’s what matters most. There could be a clarification or clearing of the air happening now that pushes you forward.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius
The Moon continues its transit of your creative solar fifth house and harmonizes with your sign in the process, dear Sagittarius. Emotionally, you’re in your element, and pressures feel less pressing! Mind you, a Mercury-Pluto aspect that keeps coming into focus occurs today, potentially bringing back an old problem for your attention. This can be a little frustrating, and while there usually isn’t a resolution with the kind of aspect they’re forming (a quincunx), the events of the day can point you in the direction of the right adjustments to make so that you can come closer to putting it behind you. Watch especially for areas of life where you are a little too obsessive or attached for your own good, as they may be dragging you down. Also today is a subtly powerful aspect for stimulating your ambitions along professional, work, or health lines.
Capricorn
Capricorn
The Moon continues its transit of your sector of home and family, dear Capricorn, putting particular focus on your personal affairs. With this influence, you tend to play it safe, and this can be a useful strategy for you at the moment. A Mercury-Pluto aspect today is a recurring one. It first popped up in July, and then after Mercury turned retrograde, it later returned to the same aspect in the first week of August. A recurring problem is likely to emerge now, and this time, you may have better tools for handling it. However, while the resolution is around the corner, it’s not likely to come quickly now. Make adjustments and edits now, and you’ll be laying important groundwork for future progress. Watch also for micromanaging a situation. You might find that focusing on uncluttering your mind and conscience makes you happiest. There is good energy today for getting a nice edge on a creative project or bonding with someone you love.

The Week Ahead: April 15-21, 2024
Lunar Phases
Monday, April 15, 19:13 UT - First Quarter Moon, 26°18’ Cancer
The key phrases for the First Quarter lunar phase are “take action,” and “build new structures to support our intentions.” Take a little time for intuition and creative visualization, before forging ahead.
Friday, April 19, 21:14 UT - Gibbous Moon, 15°17’ Virgo
The key phrases for the Gibbous lunar phase are “tweak and adjust plans as needed,” and “pour more energy and effort into our intentions.” Don’t overthink it, and don’t be perfectionist!
Void of Course Moon
Monday, April 15, 23:22 UT (Cancer) - Tuesday, April 16, 02:24 UT (Leo)
Thursday, April 18, 12:02 UT (Leo) - 14:10 UT (Virgo)
Sunday, April 21, 00:20 UT (Virgo) - 03:08 UT (Libra)
Retrograde/Direct/Etc.
Pre-retrograde shadow: Ceres/Capricorn
Retrograde: Mercury/Aries, Pallas Athene/Sagittarius, Juno/Virgo (until Sunday the 21st)
Post-retrograde shadow: Juno/Virgo (starting Sunday the 21st), Vesta/Cancer
Transiting Juno stations direct on Sunday, April 21, 02:58 UT, at 6°17’ Virgo. Time to begin acting like helpful partners.
Ingress
Friday, April 19, 14:00 UT - transiting Sun enters Taurus
Happy Taurus season! It kicks off with a bang, via a square to Pluto; and ends equally dramatically with various aspects to Pallas Athene, Jupiter, and Neptune.
Et Cetera
There are two Opportunity Periods this week:
Monday, April 15, 19:13 UT - Tuesday, April 16, 02:24 UT. “Mercury is retrograde, so use this time to review and edit ongoing projects or reconnect with people from the past.”
Wednesday, April 17, 21:20 UT - Thursday, April 18, 12:02 UT. “Self-motivation, creative activity, and building rapport with others will produce good results during this short OP.”
The big bad Jupiter-Uranus conjunction matures on Sunday, April 21, 02:27 UT, at 21°49’ Taurus - although some will feel it in Friday the 19th, when Mars/Pisces sextiles both planets, along with trines from the Virgo Moon over Friday/Saturday.
And Mercury is still retrograde!

The Week Ahead: April 1-7, 2024
Lunar Phases
Tuesday, April 2, 03:15 UT - Last Quarter Moon, 12°52’ Capricorn
The key phrases for the Last Quarter lunar phase are “turn away,” and “tear down old structures that no longer serve us well.” Time to grow up a bit?
Friday, April 5, 13:14 UT - Balsamic Moon, 1°14’ Pisces
The key phrases for the Last Quarter lunar phase are “let go of the past,” and “envision the future.” Easy to accomplish with Pisces!
Void of Course Moon
Monday, April 1, 00:16 UT (Sagittarius) - 04:05 UT (Capricorn)
Wednesday, April 3, 05:40 UT (Capricorn) - 09:08 UT (Aquarius)
Friday, April 5, 05:40 UT (Aquarius) - 11:13 UT (Pisces)
Sunday, April 7, 08:27 UT (Pisces) - 11:25 UT (Aries)
Retrograde/Direct/Etc.
Pre-retrograde shadow: Ceres/Capricorn, Saturn/Pisces
Retrograde: Mercury/Aries (starting Monday the 1st), Pallas Athene/Sagittarius, Juno/Virgo
Post-retrograde shadow: Vesta/Cancer
Transiting Mercury stations retrograde on Monday, April 1, 22:14 UT, at 27°13’ Aries. Think before you speak!
Ingress
Friday, April 5, 04:00 UT - transiting Venus enters Aries
Flirty, impulsive, impatient, independent - we have a few weeks for direct and honest conversations to clear the air, before trouble has a chance to start.
Et Cetera
There are (much to my surprise*) three Opportunity Periods this week:
Wednesday, April 3, 04:11 UT - 05:40 UT. “Short OP good for anything, from practical matters to deep romance.”
Thursday, April 4, 20:24 UT - Friday, April 5, 05:40 UT. “Great for brainstorming and innovative ideas.”
Saturday, April 6, 17:13 UT - Sunday, April 7, 11:25 UT. “Great time to relax and have fun, as it’s during the Last Quarter Moon and Mercury is retrograde.”
* - I’m surprised to see any Opportunity Periods because (1) we remain in the Shadow of the eclipses; and (2) Mercury is about to station retrograde, 22:14 UT on Monday the 1st. A test of our ability to step back and observe, saving the action for later - Thursday, April 11th at the earliest, when the Shadow of the eclipse is over.
