Venus Retrograde in Capricorn--Values Changing around Finances, Money, and the Economy

Image
  We are living in exciting times with the current transformative astrology transits. In November, we experienced the Taurus Lunar Eclipse and Neptune going direct. Then in December, we experience the Sagittarius Solar Eclipse on December 4. And then, Venus goes retrograde in Capricorn on the 19th and she's in a conversation with Pluto. And Pluto is edging towards the Pluto Return for the US (27 degrees Capricorn) in February of 2022. And then Venus joins Pluto towards the end of February. On March 2, Venus is on an exact conjunction with Pluto and this is ripe with potential for the US to transform its values around economics, politics, and human rights (remember one of Venus' rulers is Libra). Then Venus transits into Aquarius on March 7. She joins up with Saturn, the structure-builder on March 25 and this is another date to circle on the planet. Other astrologers such as Pam Gregory have said that the US Pluto Return affects the entire planet. And last time, Pluto was at 27

Interpretation of the 10-10 Portal Astrology Chart

Image
The only portal I followed at the beginning was the 11-11 Portal which I started following around 2001. Then, after watching other teachers' YouTube channels, I learned about the Lion's Gate Portal, the 10-10 Portal and so on. Portals are a time of spiritual activation so that we are more closely aligned with a living and breathing planet that is undergoing major shifts. Many spiritual teachers and astrologers connect the portals with starseeds but is that just a convenient label? We are all part human and part stardust.   Yod--The Finger of God The 10-10 Portal chart for 2021 contains a Yod with outlets for the Yod planets, a T-Square, and a Golden Triangle (I love Golden Triangles). Personal and outer planets entangle which causes a complex and complicated interpretation so bear with me as I make sense of this chart and try to interpret it in everyday English. No jargon please. Well, I'm starting with some astrological language and that is the Yod, otherwise known as the

Fiery Launch into Libra Season 2021

Image
  As I write this article, it is September 22, 2021 and the Equinox with Sun conjunct Mars launching us into the next season. While we launch the season with passion and possibly aggression, we hopefully, end with peace and mindfulness but only after a period of court battles leading to a final judgment. Even though Mars and the Sun are in Libra the Aries Moon is in opposition. And Mercury at 24 degrees Libra is in an exact square with Pluto in Capricorn. Two T-Crosses appear in the Equinox chart in the Cardinal and Fixed signs. However, on the plus side, we also have a Grand Air Trine with Saturn in Aquarius, the North Node/Ceres in Gemini and the Sun and Mars in Libra. So, let's break this chart down into hopefully, easy to understand language. After all, the Mercury is getting ready to turn retrograde which leads to miscommunication and embarrassing typos. My brain seems to misfire during a Mercury RX too. Mars and the Sun are ruled by Fire signs (Leo and Aries) and the Moon is

Deep Healing of the Mind-Body-Spirit During Virgo Season

Image
Virgo Season which includes all the personal planet's transits through Virgo, not just the Sun, the Virgo New Moon and the Pisces Full Moon has brought deep healing and soul-cleansing to every being on the planet and the Earth . Mercury transited in Virgo from August 12 to the 31st. Venus transited in Virgo from July 23 until August 17th. Mars transited in Virgo from July 30 until September 15 while the Sun transited in Virgo from August 22 until September 23rd. Yes, we experienced overlap with Leo Season and Virgo Season. It' not unusual for the seasons to overlap. However, the Virgo and Pisces polarity has played a crucial role in our lives this summer. Add the Gemini North Node and the Sagittarius South Node and we deal with energies of change and mutability. We are in the process in becoming new versions of ourselves. As we mutate from the beta version of ourselves to the emerging New Earth version we can become overly critical of ourselves. We try to apply logic to situati

Is Neptune in Pisces the Last Marker for the Pisces Age?

    Astrologically, we needed an exit plan out of the Pisces Age. We've been touting the Aquarius Age at least since the late 1960s and yet, we seem to be nowhere close to this age as far as living in a utopia where everyone experiences freedom and equality. But with so many Uranus and Aquarius aspects in 2021 and with the drawing of a close to Neptune in Pisces in 2025, could that be the final marker of the Pisces Age?   I'm writing this article from my intuition and my experiences with the outer planet transits for the last several decades. I was born with two planets (Moon, Saturn) and the asteroid Chiron in Pisces opposing Uranus and Pluto in Virgo (markers in themselves). Neptune is parked on my mid heaven in the Water Sign Scorpio so I believe that I have a strong sense of Piscean energy but probably not as strong as someone born with a cluster of planets in Pisces or in the Twelfth Natal House (ruled by Pisces). I'm witnessing the dark side of Pisces along with some

A Year Powered by Uranus and Aquarius--Can You Feel the Electricity?

  Aquarius is a sign that is better in theory than in practice. As far back as the late 1960s into the 1970s, hippies were exalting the Age of Aquarius and claiming that Aquarius was going to change everything. And now that we've entered (some astrologers say we have not) the Aquarius Age, it's messy, painful, and chaotic. It resembles the movie The Matrix and the groupthink mentality is destroying life on the planet and placing our bodies in danger. And one of the things I especially noticed after Jupiter and Saturn formed a Grand Conjunction in Aquarius last December was that I personally don't want to be a member of any camp or group. But isn't Aquarius about groups, networking, cooperation, and collaboration? Perhaps, humanity hasn't quite figured out how to do the group thing without squashing someone else' esteem or rights. Now, I'll get into the important Uranus and Aquarius transits in a moment. First, let's talk about the perils of groupthink wh

The Aquarius Full Moon (July 23, 2021), Twisties, and Gymnastics

                      True Gold and the Character of a Soul While I try to avoid distractions, the Olympic Games has captured my attention and the US gymnastic team in particular. The Olympic Games opened on the day of the Aquarius Full Moon so that alone put viewers on alert for something unusual to take place. The Olympic Games always bring surprises with world records shattered by young athletes, injuries, accidents, and during the 1972 Olympics, athletes were held hostage by a Palestinian terrorist group called Black September. Four years later, another gymnast held the world's eyes captive and that was the Romanian athlete Nadia Comenci who was the first gymnast to score Perfect 10s. While I don't know where the planets were transiting in 1972 when the hostage event took place, we are reminded of the precarious situation when the world's nations send their best athletes to one spot in the world to compete for the Gold (Leo rules gold). While it's normally a peacefu

Pluto in Capricorn and Neptune in Pisces--Grand Shifts on Mother Earth

Image
  You would think Pluto in Capricorn and Neptune in its own sign, Pisces would be old news by now. But wait... Since Neptune and Pluto are outer planets and experience long orbits much of what transpires appears below the surface. It's like lava brewing under a volcano. And we already know that Pluto represents secretive or hidden situations and information. Pluto also seems to rule drama and Neptune rules illusions and deception. The transformation brought by these two planets is a slow journey. Astrologers focused on the polarities of these transits. Some astrologers have focused on the formation of the New Earth and the glories of the Aquarius Age, even exclusively in some cases as if the news is only glowing. While others have taken a more gloomy outlook focusing on lies being revealed, disclosures, and natural disasters along with the fall of the current monetary systems. But to be honest, Neptune and Pluto's transits have created and promoted both scenarios. We can't
