Personalizing Astrology Transits (Outer Planets & Chiron)

Image
Was Pandora an astrologer? Wikipedia I wonder some times if I came into this life with my particular transits so that I could learn about astrology firsthand. I doubt there has ever been a dull moment in my adult life due to the configurations in my birth chart and planetary transits. It seems to me that I've never had a moment's rest given that six of my planets are in Mutable Signs, two in Cardinal, and two in Fixed all ranging from 4 to 22 degrees in my chart. However, since 2008, when Pluto in Capricorn crashed through my South/North Nodes, deposited itself on my Capricorn AC, and then opposed my Sun/Mercury (2008-2012), I've witnessed the destruction of the structures I built in my life. Granted, those structures were mostly built from fear (not that Pluto helped me relax either). Perhaps Uranus, when it transited into Aries in 2011 did me a favor, except that I find that I battle with the two-headed monster of security verses freedom. This hasn't been the fi

Astrology Downloads--Uranus in Aries = Brain Science Discoveries

Image
While brain science has been around for a while now, it has reached the masses during the Uranus in Aries transit (which ends in 2019). We have experienced breakthroughs using new technology such as brain imaging which has played a huge role in music consciousness as well as, in preventing brain diseases. And since Uranus/Aquarius is the opposite of Sun/Leo in the Zodiac, scientists have also discovered the electromagnetic energy of the heart and how it's more powerful than the brain's electromagnetic field, as seen in Gregg Braden's videos (of his workshops). In case you're wondering what Aries has to do with it, this Zodiac Sign rules the head, and Uranus rules the brain and our intellectual propensity. Uranus rules technology and unexpected breakthroughs. Many of the brain science discoveries have proved shocking and books about the brain such as books by Bruce Lipton have led to new therapies that clear away clutter in our subconscious minds which lead to libe

Astrology Downloads--Venus in Sagittarius Cleanse Liver

Image
marshes are the liver of the earth, photo by Patricia Herlevi It seems like I'm waking up with spiritual downloads every other morning now. This morning I received urgent spiritual messages for people with Venus in Sagittarius or Gemini to take care of their liver health. I also received messages for people with Mars in Sagittarius and Gemini (this does include me), to do a liver cleanse and make necessary lifestyle changes now. The reason for this is when Saturn transits in Sagittarius (until December 2017), it conjuncts Venus and Mars in Sagittarius, opposes Venus and Mars in Gemini, and squares Venus and Mars in Virgo and Pisces. So people with Mars or Venus in Virgo or Pisces, listen up as well. So clean up habits such as eating excessive fried foods, animal fats, recreational drug use and alcohol consumption because these activities are harming your liver now. We are also exposed to air pollution, impure water, and tainted food, as well as, exposure to chemically-laced h

Pisces Solar Eclipse (March 8, 2016)--1, 2, 3...All Together Now

Image
March 2016 starts off on a murky note with a Solar Eclipse in Pisces landing on the 8th. And with all this Mutable power charging up the new moon chart, expect change. Better to go with the flow than to fight the currents and with this irreversible change (like one door closing and locking behind us), best to keep our eyes on the prize that glimmers on the horizon. Besides the moon and sun floating in the surreal Pisces, Neptune, Ceres, Chiron and the South Node also swim in the confusion. Saturn and Mars transit in Sagittarius, and the North Node and Jupiter transit in Virgo. Well, that's more Mutable energy than usual, and come May when personal planets sail into Gemini, we visit a Mutable Grand Square so perhaps this Pisces Solar Eclipse (new moon) foreshadows the May transits (as well as, the Saturn Neptune squares coming up this summer). Pisces Sun, Moon, and Ascendant are most affected by this Solar Eclipse and Virgo falls in second place experiencing the oppositions

Libra Lunar Eclipse--Balancing Act (March 23, 2016)

Image
We'll experience the last Lunar Eclipse in the Libra-Aries cycle on March 23, 2016, at least until the North Node moves into Aries, several years from now. However, this cycle ends on a powerful note with plenty of planetary congestion--imagine LA traffic. I set the chart for Seattle or Standard Pacific Time. As you can see from this chart, a cluster of planets falls in the Second House, leading off with Neptune on the cusp in Pisces, followed by Venus, Ceres, Chiron in Pisces and then Mercury, Sun, and Uranus in Aries. The square with Uranus and Pluto is still present but widening the gap, and then Jupiter and the North Node gets entangled with Saturn in Sagittarius and Ceres conjunct Chiron in the form of a Mutable T-Square (we had better get used to them). And Venus and Neptune square Mars (Divine Feminine verses the old guard). Meanwhile, Mars in Sagittarius and Sun/Mercury in Aries offer a Fire Trine (Mars sextiles the Moon in Libra); as does Saturn in Sagittari

Pisces--A Fish with Two Heads

by Patricia Herlevi Repost Spotlight on Pisces Sign: The Fish February 18 - March 20  Planets: Jupiter and Neptune  Rules: Feet and lymphatic system I once read in Linda Goodman's "Love Signs" that there are two types of Pisces men--the hapless dreamer who drifts through life living in poverty and hope, and the hardworking kind with their feet more securely grounded in mundane reality.  I have met both kinds of Pisces men and I have met Pisces women who come across more like a bold Aries than a fish with a soft heart.  And I have known a lot of Pisces since my Pisces Moon/Saturn and strong Neptune in my chart acts as a magnet to the fish.  Consequently, I have known many Virgos on the polar opposite of Pisces. True for some Pisces you could say they don't have a mean bone in their body.  These are the folks who will sacrifice themselves for you, for the ideal partner or on a bigger scale, the planet.  More than any sign Pisces has the urge to merge into U

The Sagittarius Man that would be Pope--Chart Interpretation of Pope Francis I

Image
After I saw a headline for an article about Pope Francis (Sagittarius) denouncing Republican front runner Donald Trump (Gemini) for his proposal to kick Mexican workers out of the US and ask Mexico to build a wall to keep Mexicans out of the US, it was time to explore Pope Francis' Natal Chart and transits. Pope Francis declared that Trump's mentality isn't Christian and this create a stir in the media. All this plays out in the foreground of 2016's Mutable Transits, which includes Mutable T-Crosses with outer planets, a Grand Mutable Square in the spring, and exact Saturn Neptune squares throughout the summer months. Pope Francis I Chart Ruler: Moon Sun Ruler: Jupiter Moon Ruler: Uranus  Pluto in Cancer Generation  Angular Houses: First, Seventh, and Tenth activated So this piqued my curiosity and I wondered about Pope Francis' Natal Chart and how this drama is a reflection of the Mutable planet transits, the upcoming Virgo Full Moon, and the Saturn-

Aquarius Sun--Zigzagging Your Way thru the Zodiac

Image
Aquarius, I had a dream last night where I was sitting next to Michael Stipe (R.E.M.) and Robyn Hitchcock. Hitchcock turned to Stipe and asked, “You’re Capricorn, right?” and Stipe responded in a hush tone, “We’ll discuss this later.” Then I butted into their intimate moment, as any rock music journalist-turned-astrologer might and I asked Hitchcock if he was an Aquarius. And he retorted, “Aquarius is overrated.” And true enough while I was growing up in the 1970s, indeed Aquarius was overrated thanks to the Broadway musical, Hair and the song, “Age of Aquarius.” As a child, I thought there were only three astrological signs, Cancer, Capricorn, and Aquarius so when another child said that she was Gemini or Leo, I scratched my head, “Huh?” When I was in kindergarten only one girl (who was also labeled with learning disabilities), befriended me and she was the first Aquarius I encountered. We held hands on a field trip to the beach so I have a water association with the Water
