The Shifting Moods of the 12 Moons

12 Moons and Moods  (Following the Moon through its Monthly Transits) Have you ever noticed that on one day, you experience boundless energy and the urge to roam free? And on another day, you feel like cocooning in your room reflecting about recent events?  And why is it on some days, sending off resumes happens easily and effortlessly, while other days, you procrastinate and allow your mind to wander off in daydreams? The Moon transits through all 12 Zodiac Signs each month and stays approximately two days in each sign. And each sign has its own signature, themes, and mood. The Moon, which is actually a luminary and not a planet is mysterious by nature. The Moon is the ruling planet for the Zodiac Sign Cancer. People born under this sign shift moods easily and you can actually tell what sign the Moon is transiting by observing your Cancerian friends. However, everyone is affected by the magnetic pull of the Moon and the sign it beams its light. So, let

Wiki Images June 27 to January 7, 2021 Like it or not, Mars transits into Aries on June 27 and remains in Aries until January of 2021. Mars will be in its own sign and also the sign where the asteroid Chiron is currently residing. While eclipses won't be stirring up Mars in Aries, Mars will go to head with Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto.  We could even return to some of the themes that came up when Uranus transited in Aries from 2010 through 2018. As a Cancer Sun person with a Capricorn Ascendant, I'm not looking forward to this Mars transit. And as I write this post, Mars is in soothing Pisces which bodes well with me. I suppose it is only fair for Aries-dominant people since the North Node was in Cancer for a year and a half which must have felt like smothering mothers to Aries who want to strike out in the world and put their swords to the test. And to be honest, we all have 12 Zodiac Signs in us even if we have no planets in all 12 signs. Since we on

Retrograde Season 2020--Saturn, Venus, and Jupiter (Neptune in June)

Pixabay.com If 2020 didn't already launch off in a powerful way, Pluto launched retrograde season on April 25. And in May, Saturn goes retrograde on the 10th, Venus on the 12th, and Jupiter on the 14th. Then on June 23, Neptune goes retrograde in the midst of eclipse season. Boy, oh, boy! Retrograde planets have a way of reversing events or taking collective inward. Each planet represents different themes and natal houses on a Zodiac wheel. However, on a personal level, we look to the signs that the planets retrograde and the houses in the natal charts that they occupy. The most powerful transits occur in the angular houses (1, 4, 7, and 10) because those houses represent the major areas of our lives including, our self-identity/body, home/mother, partnerships/legal contracts, and the public/career/father. The Fixed Sign houses (2, 5, 8, and 11) represent our values, hobbies, the arts, risks, sex, death, birth, taxes, other people's resources, our res
