for educational use Those of you in the United States have experienced a revolution led by Senator Bernie Sanders as he makes a bid for US President and younger generations who have fueled his campaign. Internationals have gazed at the United States wondering when this country finally woke up. Since Bernie Sanders (Virgo) embodies the changes brought by outer planets transiting in Mutable Signs (Saturn, Jupiter & Neptune), I produced a video for YouTube. Since Pope Francis (Sagittarius) also ushers in changes, I ask you to watch my video on the pope as well. Now, I ask you to do something difficult during the Saturn-Neptune Square and that is to move past your ideologies and beliefs to see the men behind politics and religion. My videos are not about either, but about compassion, integrity, and doing the right thing, which is cooperation and caring. Also I want you to note that we don't actually know if this is the correct birth time for Senator Sanders. P

If you have felt hopeless or powerless or just disgusted with the actions of others this past week, here's why. On Sunday, April 17, Mars in Sagittarius turned retrograde. The following day Pluto turned retrograde, then the following day the Sun moved into Taurus followed by the Scorpio Full Moon the next day. We end the week with the moon conjunct RX Mars in Sagittarius. These transits either lead to rallying cries or total exhaustion. Then while all those planets are shifting directions or signs, Mercury slowed down as it prepares to go retrograde at 23 degrees Taurus on April 28. The signs most affected by all this change are Scorpio, Gemini, Sagittarius, Aries, Taurus and Scorpio. And when planets turned retrograde they move out of the shadows and take on their purest form or energies. Retrograde planets force us to go inward and anyone who has done their inner work know how exhausting that can be. It's a time when we require extra sleep, and must fuel our brain with le

Pandora, Wikipedia Why does Jacques Cousteau come to mind when I contemplate the April Full Moon in Scorpio? I get this image of a marine biologist deep under water with fishes of various stripes swimming past him like schools of thought. Well, with this April Full Moon, we'll be questioning those schools of thoughts and swimming past one illusion after another. We'll ask the question what is authentic for me? If you happen to have your sun, moon, or Ascendant in a Water Sign, you could see huge manifestations during this full moon and the months that follow it. However, those manifestations, depend upon where you have placed your thoughts since Taurus New Moon. We pretty much get what we focus upon, especially during a Fixed Sign cycle. So what are your true desires and passions; do you feel deserving of them? Ah, and this is such a beautiful moon with amazing transits. Right in the middle of the chart we see a Grand Earth Trine with Mercury in Taurus, Pluto in Caprico

In my community, I encounter a lot of children on a daily basis. I seem to have a magnet for drawing animals and children to me. Maybe this is because I respect the integrity and wholeness of the children and creatures I meet, instead of treating them like they're less than or only in the act of becoming. And often parents complain that their child won't do this or that or their child is too slow, too hyper, too something. They can find out those answers with a pediatric astrology reading. Often the parents I encounter either dismiss astrology or don't give it much thought when I tell them that I'm an astrologer and I give pediatric chart readings. And yet, the parents desire a road map or an instruction manual for their child, not realizing that pediatric astrology provides the soul blueprint for their child. I understand that parents don't have time to learn the complexities of astrology much less shine that light on their child. Besides, pediatric astrology

Mars goes retrograde in Sagittarius on April 17. I've already written a post and produced a video on this retrograde. I remind you that if any part of your life is out of alignment or integrity, this will backfire in the coming months, especially in late May and early June with the exact Saturn-Neptune Square and Mutable Grand Cross. For more information, check out my YouTube channel, Astrologer Patricia. When Mars moves back into Scorpio, lies and secrets expose themselves. So if there is any area of your life where you are practicing dishonesty or are out of integrity, clean this up and make amends before the retrograde. Mercury also goes RX on April 28 in Taurus (opposite of Scorpio) so that could kick up dust too. Many times we act out of fear by hiding information, lying or even stealing and then rationalizing our behavior. The planetary transits will no longer buffer us from consequences for our actions. We cannot ascend to higher dimensions when we give into fearful prac

Ceres, Wikipedia If we require a marker to usher in the Divine Feminine/Divine Masculine Age, then the demotion of Pluto along with the promotion of Ceres (Demeter) by the International Astronomical Union in 2006 could act as that marker.  Because of its location in the Kuiper Belt and other attributes, the union demoted Pluto to planetoid or asteroid, often referred to as Plutonoid. Since the asteroid Ceres, orbiting between Mars and Jupiter met the new planet requirements of the union, Ceres was promoted to dwarf planet status. And in fact, Neil F. Michelson and Rique Potteneger give Ceres planet status in The American Ephemeris where you'll also find a description of Pluto's demotion. Ceres is listed between Mars and Jupiter in the charts. Now, as an astrologer, I must get up to speed with Ceres so that I can include this new planet and its attributes in upcoming readings. Previously, like other astrologers, I treated Ceres as an asteroid while including it in readin

artwork by Patricia Herlevi In May, Mercury and Jupiter go Direct, Mars retrogrades back into Scorpio, and a Mutable T-Cross transforms into a Mutable Grand Square the final week. At the start of the month, five of the ten planets are retrograde which has us searching inward. More fiery types feel like a boat grounded on a rocky shore and airy types long for breathing space. The first half of the month responds to the Taurus New Moon's earthy and grounded energy while the second half of the month, has us shooting arrows at the sun (Sagittarius Full Moon) even if the Mutable planet energies tangle us in blue (to quote Bob Dylan, a Gemini). At least we don't have the specter of the Uranus-Pluto square hovering over our lives any longer, even if Capricorns, Aries, Librans and Cancerians experience deep transformation and liberation when Uranus and Pluto make transits to their sun, moon, and Ascendants. However, the highlight at the beginning of the month falls on the Fixed

It's probably too early to post about the Aries New Moon coming up on April 7. However, this moon gives us some hope like a glimmer on the horizon as we endure the changes brought to us by the Pisces Solar Eclipse. Once again, we will experience a powerful Super Moon in April, but one that launches new beginnings for us, if we can muster the courage to take a leap of faith. As you can see from the Aries New Moon chart, we won't be experiencing any Cardinal T-Crosses. However, Uranus is still squaring Pluto and the focus is on Aries with the sun, moon, Venus, and Uranus in the Sign of the Ram. Mercury just exited Aries and Ceres approaches the Fire Sign. Also Uranus conjuncts the Aries Sun and Moon so this in itself is probably more powerful than a Cardinal T-Cross. We can use this energy to innovate our lives, pioneer a new way of life, or to just get physically fit. It carries the theme of liberating ourselves from boxes and living authentically. The focus is on the indivi
