    Saturn Direct--Let the Rebuilding Process Begin If you've felt that you are lacking bodily strength or the stamina to complete projects, this is because Saturn has been retrograde since April 17. The good news is that Saturn goes direct on September 6. However, we feel frustrated that our lives are not moving forward because Saturn has been stationary at 2 degrees (RX) since mid-August. And even after the planet goes direct it stays at 2 degrees for most of September. Interestingly, 2 degrees is critical for 2018. The Mars and Uranus square took place exact at 2 degrees. Uranus has been stationed at 2 degrees since July 1. And 2 degrees feels like someone dipping their feet into the water. It's not moving forward really and not moving backwards, at least not as quickly as we would like. (I have my N Node at 2 degrees Cancer). And if any of us have a Node or planet at 2 degrees in any sign this feels irritating when an outer planet stays at 2 degrees for

  Getting Down to Business of Launching You The energy I'm picking up for September is that the Virgo New Moon launches a project, business or situation that requires research and the formation of an action plan. Then when the Aries Full Moon transits, launch those projects, businesses or situations. Jupiter is direct. Saturn is direct and most important, Mars is direct. And better yet, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are retrograde so we can redirect our outer focus to inner focus. This brings a collective sigh of relief since during the past several months despite our efforts at healing ourselves, we have been drawn to world events or we've experienced crisis in our families or communities. Now, we can push forward with personal healing and the Virgo New Moon promotes changing our daily routine and even making changes to our daily work environment so that we increase our well-being. This marks a time of removing toxins (both physical and emotional) from our en

On September 9, we experience the Virgo New Moon at 17 degrees. The Sun, Moon, and Mercury form a Triple Conjunction. And this is important because Mercury is in one of its two signs, Virgo which rules personal health, along with your daily environment and communication. It also rules high-tech. This Moon comes during a Grand Earth Trine that involves the Sun, Moon, Mercury in Virgo, Saturn in Capricorn, and Uranus in Taurus. Granted, the Sun and Moon are in a wide orb with the other planets but I am lumping them into a Triple Conjunction with Mercury which is in orb with the Saturn and Uranus. Uranus went retrograde in August and Saturn is stationary direct (it went direct on September 6). This is important because now that Mars, Mercury, and Saturn are direct, it's time to get down to business. Virgo is a sign for getting organized and becoming more efficient. This is with personal and global finances. People could be more conservative and spend less money o

Astrologers have waxed poetry about the Pisces Moon. This is the Moon that is whimsical, otherworldly and the Moon to take us closest to Unity Consciousness. And with Neptune also in Pisces and Jupiter in Scorpio, we're slipping on our space boots and losing ourselves in the vast cosmos. We experience this year's Pisces Full Moon on August 26. And for many people with dominant Water and Earth in their charts, they welcome the soothing tones of this Moon. The more fiery and airy types will struggle through the spiritual and emotional depths of Pisces. And this would be a mistake because Pisces represents freedom as well as, unity. It represents deep spiritual insights and in its own way, Pisces represents passion as we follow our bliss. Pisces, similar to Sagittarius, is a big picture Zodiac Sign. Pisces people often miss the details because their minds and hearts are swimming in the cosmos and hearing the subtle songs of Neptune so far off in our galaxy.
