Wellll…These next few weeks could get pretty interesting for us. That’s an understatement :)

In addition to remaining under the influence of both Venus and Mercury squaring off with the Illusionist Neptune, we’re also feeling the pressure and volatile energy of the approaching, and repeating, Uranus-Pluto square which becomes exact next Monday May 20^th.  And if that’s not enough for our little plates, we’re still fully engulfed in an evolutionary-transformative-sandwich-effect between the three May eclipses – and with the final one yet to arrive but rapidly approaching on May 25^th. 

 

During these couple of weeks, people and things may not be who they seem, or someone (or us!) may behave in an unusual or unforeseen manner.  We may experience an important untruth.  It may come from without – or it could also be an untruth we’ve been telling ourselves.  With Venus and Mercury’s Dance of Misunderstanding with obscure Neptune, relationship, financial and communication problems – I mean challenges – are just sitting there waiting for us like little pot holes filled with things we don’t want to step in.  On the plus side, we may finally get a needed reality check or wake-up call about a person or situation in our lives.  We may not like what we see – but it may have become imperative and essential that we finally see things, situations and people for what they are.  That’s so we can start new.  Start fresh.  The new start could actually be with the same situation or people – but it would be from a new perspective now.  A whole new start…

 

The bottom line is that these few weeks can bring confusion, waffling and even dishonesty and deception in relationships and finances.  We may find ourselves wondering just who the bleep is telling the truth – and that goes for us, too – so we may have to be sure we’re taking a close look inward at what WE are telling ourselves and/or what we’re telling others! 

 

Also, with Mercury entering his comfy home sign of Gemini, communications will be accelerating.  That’s always a good thing. It’s a natural time to get out and network.  Meet people.  Talk, listen. But given the fact that Mercury is also having complications with Neptune, it will be doubly, triply important for us to listen with clear vision!   

 

The Very Big Plus Sign throughout all of these challenging aspects, is that connecting with our Source, accessing deep creativity, and seeing the Divine in all things around us will be powerfully available to us now.  Writing, poetry, speaking, and all things related to “words” will be within our reach.  Meditation and visualization will also be powerful for us, so this would be THE time to get busy and vividly imagine our hopes, wishes and desired outcomes.   Manifest.  It’s a time when we will be extremely receptive to the Divine in our lives, and healings of all kinds can appear almost miraculously.   Any form of energy healing work (Neptune) using the hands (Mercury/Gemini) can also be extremely potent and successful.
 

Finally, the third (of five) meetings of Uranus (the unexpected, awakening, sudden, explosion, disruption) in Aries (aggression, combustion, speed) squaring off with Pluto (transformation, regeneration, death and rebirth) in Capricorn (governments, big business, authorities) come to blows.  These two giants will be battling their way through 2015.  We’ve already been seeing the pressure increase and explode around the world, particularly in the areas of government and political structures.  We’ll continue to see corruption exposed personally, locally, nationally and worldwide.  It’s all about bringing in a new awareness (Uranus).  On a personal level, we’re being called on to break free (Uranus) from dusty things/people that have outlived their usefulness to us (Pluto/Capricorn).  And start fresh.

Powerful Taurus Solar Eclipse…and Venus Frisks into Gemini :)

As I talked about on my Intuitive Life Radio Show this past Monday, this is a Very-Stupendously-Big-Week for our Sweet Cosmos with a solar eclipse in Taurus sporting a conjunction to the South Node – the Dragon’s Head of Fate and Karma – and on the very same day, Venus changing signs, moving from sultry, if slow-moving, Taurus, to lively, if sometimes fickle, Gemini.

 

This Thursday, May 9^th presents us with the second of three eclipses in a little over a month.  Just think of an eclipse as a full or new moon on steroids.  And this New Moon Eclipse at 19 degrees Taurus is coupled with the South Node – and also has Mercury and Mars thrown into the mix.  The South Node is commonly connected with old karma, and it tends to emphasize the past as it has built and created our present day situation.  So, since this Solar Eclipse is considered a South Node eclipse, our old ways of thinking and being need to be shaken off in order to be able to radiate our new and improved futures.   And it is really REALLY is about letting go — whether we’re ready or like it or not!

 

We’ll be expected to pitch out any dusty junk lurking among our “cobwebs” and get rid of what isn’t working, especially as it relates to what or who we love and value, our finances and money, and our income and resources.

 

Shakeups, the unexpected and surprises are often in the prevailing winds of an eclipse. And with this particular Taurus Solar Eclipse, any planets or angles falling within 18 – 20 degrees in our charts will be powerfully impacted – though the strongest collision will be with points falling in the fixed signs of Taurus (with this Eclipse making a conjunction), Leo (making a square), Scorpio (making an opposition), and Aquarius (also making a square). 

 

So, we should be alert to where those degrees fall in our charts.  And even if there are NO direct hits to planets or angles in the chart, the House (which represents a specific area of our life) will likely experience some Eclipse-Shaking-Ups.  Sometimes an eclipse can leave us feeling utterly flattened, but being able to work proactively with its energy can actually break open old crusty doors in our lives – and thrust us forward into our future – and sometimes with a blast!

 

The other Big Energy Shifter is Venus changing signs and entering lively Gemini.  This shift happens on the very same day as our Taurus Lunar Eclipse on Thursday, May 9^th.  Venus shifting into Gemini speeds EVERYTHING up!  And she’ll be in Gemini for 25 days.  We should expect more communication, friskiness and probably more flirtation energy around us.  And there’ll probably be a LOT more words – but it’ll probably be beneficial to take everything with a big boulder of salt until we’re sure it’s for sure!  It IS playful Gemini’s season after all!

 

And then on May 15^th, Mercury romps into Gemini with Venus.  Mercury is totally happy in Gemini since it’s his Home Sign.  And just in time for our next Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on May 25^th in Sagittarius, we’ll see Mercury and Venus join hands in a sweet conjunction.  So, Mercury, Venus and Jupiter will ALL be conjunct in Gemini as well… This will be a great time for communication and expanding horizons…  But more about this upcoming Sagittarius Lunar Eclipse later!

More soon… and Intuitive Life Radio Show coming up with astro info and free readings for callers and chatters!

 

 

 

Forecasts For Powerful Scorpio Lunar Eclipse of April…

AND MORE THAN YOU PROBABLY WANT

TO KNOW ABOUT ECLIPSES …

 

(JUST SKIP TO THE BOTTOM FOR THE

FORECAST FOR EACH SIGN

FOR THE POWERFUL SCORPIO LUNAR ECLIPSE OF APRIL 25th

the first of THREE eclipses in 90 days!)

 

.     .     .     .     .

 

First of all, eclipses always come in pairs.  And they always come as a new moon and full moon two weeks apart and occur in one set of opposite signs, for example Aries/Libra or Taurus/Scorpio, etc., every five months or so.

 

Solar eclipses always occur at the time of the New Moon, and lunar eclipses fall during the Full Moon.   The solar eclipse New Moon occurs in the same astrological sign where the Sun is currently transiting Earth, while the lunar eclipse Full Moon falls in the opposite sign of where the Sun is currently transiting Earth.  

 

And the House in an individual’s chart in which an eclipse occurs will be the area of life that will receive the focus and likely experience change.  The most profound effect takes place when an eclipse aspects a planet or angle in the chart.  

 

Some of the key words for eclipses are unexpected, emphasis, focus and crisis.   So, an Eclipse will focus a laser and emphasize, any and all matters related to the House in which it falls and/or planets it aspects – and probably abruptly and/or suddenly.  And all eclipses mark both beginnings and endings.

 

Also, lunar eclipses are more personal and can affect our emotional lives more than solar eclipses.  Lunar eclipses are also often about endings and completions, while solar eclipses often reflect external events and are about new beginnings.

 

Many people are apprehensive (to say the least!) about eclipses because eclipses often bring a crisis or an unanticipated change in our lives.  But, however, eclipses also often open exciting new panoramas and bring new people or events into our lives.  They are also moments of times of peak intensity, opportunity and an important point in time in our life.  And the more awareness we have about an eclipse, the less likely disruption or damage will occur – and the more likely it will give us a needed push toward an awesome new future.

 

So, although eclipses ultimately present a significant event or change – it’s crucial to recognize that this event or change is necessary, and very often will open new doors and bring wonderful newness and excitement.

 

And to determine how any eclipse will affect you personally, look to the House where the eclipse falls in your birth chart, as well as any aspects made to planets or significant points in your chart.  The affairs of those houses will be activated and will describe how the energy of the eclipse will play out in your life.

 

Also, it’s usually a good idea to wait a few days on either side of an eclipse before beginning anything new.  New activities begun too close to an eclipse may include an unanticipated or surprise factor – and may turn out differently from what we had planned or expected!

 

With five eclipses coming up in 2013, we all can expect powerful events of change in our lives. To be sure, enormous change is inevitable this year.  We can often feel the effects of an eclipse up to three months prior to the eclipse and we can expect to continue to feel the effect for six months or longer following the eclipse.

 

.     .     .     .     .

 

So, to get specific about this particular Full Moon Lunar Eclipse… it happens at 5 degrees of Scorpio, and will be very potent, possibly explosive, since it is conjunct Saturn and opposite Venus/Mars.  Mars and Pluto both rule this Eclipse.  So this will likely not be a fluffy, fuzzy eclipse. There will probably be some big changes/endings that are resisted or pushed.   And there could be lots of anger and/or frustration over the next month or so in the wake of this Lunar Eclipse.

 

If you have any planets or angles of your chart in the first 10 degrees of Scorpio, Taurus, Leo or Aquarius, you’ll be especially impacted.  And the birthdays affected will be …

 October 27-29^th (Scorpio) – a conjunction (0 degrees)

 April 24-26^th (Taurus) – an opposition (180 degrees)

 July 28-30^th (Leo) – a square (90 degrees)

 January 24-26^th (Aquarius) – a square (90 degrees) 

.     .     .     .     .

Plus, the following information is a brief rundown of how each sign may experience this particular (and powerful!) Scorpio Full Moon Lunar Eclipse.   And if you know your Rising Sign/Ascendant, read that as well to see how and where you can expect to feel this one. 

Aries

Three of the eclipses this year will be in your 8^th House which deals with Finances, so you should expect big changes and new beginnings in financial matters.  This Lunar Eclipse will be bringing finances into sharp focus for you, especially related to joint finances, inheritances, and money received (or given) to others, as well as possible endings of financial or emotional situations that no longer serve you.   The 8^th House is also a deeply psychic and intensely emotional place so be ready to be, or have others around you be, more emotional now.

Taurus

Two of the eclipses this year will be in Scorpio and will fall in your 7th House of Partnerships.  This Lunar eclipse will bring relationships and partnerships into extreme focus so be expecting change and/or reorganization in relationships this year.  You can expect changes in all close relationships, experience new connections and commitments, and even endings of relationships that no longer serve you – to make way for those new beginnings.  You’ll be letting go in order to begin again.

Gemini

Two of the eclipses this year will be in Scorpio and will fall in your 6^th House of work, daily routines, health, service and pets.  This Lunar Eclipse will be bringing focus on your work and health so expect major changes and surprises in both areas!  There can be unexpected opportunities to advance at work and/or earn more income.  Your current daily routine may also “go out the window” as new information, endings and new beginnings arrive in your life.

Cancer

Two of the eclipses this year will fall in Scorpio and in your 5^th House.  This will put potent emphasis on romance, children, creativity, and gaming and speculation in your life.  Expect exciting changes in these areas.  This Lunar Eclipse will be pushing you to make drastic changes in the ways you find enjoyment over this year.  You can also expect a romance to change, end, and/or a new exciting romantic partner to enter your life.  Your creativity in all areas will also be bursting at the seams!  Use it!

Leo

Two of the five eclipses this year will fall in your 4^th House of Home and Family.  This will strongly influence anything related to those areas.  This Lunar Eclipse will be bringing changes in your home, and possibly even a relocation.  No matter what, your residence will be something new in one way or the other.  A domestic or real estate issue could also reach a conclusion, and there will likely be a change in the family in some way.

Virgo

Two of the five eclipses this year will fall in your 3^rd House of Communication, Siblings and Short Travel.   This Lunar Eclipse will be opening doors and encouraging you to learn, travel and communicate.  You may decide to take on a new study, move around a lot more, and communicate with others.  Writing and “words” will be calling to you.  Short trips, writing and opening your mind to “think outside the box” will be a big focus for you, and your world will certainly be expanding and intensifying in unexpected ways.  Time to let go of those old mental cobwebs! 

Libra

Two of the five eclipses this year will fall in your 2^nd House of Finances and will be bringing money and income into sharp focus for you.  This Lunar Eclipse will bring a completion as well as new beginnings in money and finance in your life.  Things you “value” will also be up for renewal, so expect big changes and new beginnings in money, financial matters and income.  A new way of earning may also be presented to you unexpectedly.  Consider all offers, but do it thoughtfully!

Scorpio

This Lunar Eclipse is in Scorpio and falls in your 1^st House of Self.  Expect to be making some big changes and completions in your personal life.  Your appearance may even change drastically over this year!  And you’ll also find yourself letting go of people, places and/or things that no longer serve your highest good and goals.  This Lunar Eclipse will bring a laser-like focus on you personally and in a big way, and emphasize your personal growth.  Be ready to make some big personal changes!

Sagittarius

Two of the five eclipses this year will fall in your 12^th House of the Unconscious and Things Behind the Scenes.  New spiritual opportunities and inner growth are on the agenda for you in a very big way.  Surprising new starts grow behind the scenes.  Secrets may be shared or revealed as well.  Be alert for subtle opportunities presented to you.  They can be very important to your future.  You should also be expecting major psychic breakthroughs, profound and guiding nighttime dreams, and unexpected spiritual growth over this year.  Get a dream journal if you don’t already have one!

Capricorn

Two of the five eclipses this year will fall in your 11^th House of Friends, Hopes and Wishes.  Socializing and networking will bring more than a little excitement to you and will be pushing you into new circumstances.  You’ll be meeting new individuals and making new friends.  Some cherished hopes and wishes will also come up for harvesting – at long, long last it can seem!  Mixing and mingling and networking will open new doors for you.  Some old friends may leave your life if you both have served your mutual purposes, and new friends and playmates will be arriving to aid you in securing your hopes, wishes and goals.

Aquarius

Two of the five eclipses this year will fall in your 10^th of Career.  This Lunar Eclipse will be bringing big changes and opportunities to you in this area.  You could receive a raise, promotion or an unexpected offer of another job or position.  No matter what, you can expect major change in your career arena.  Sudden and surprising endings and new beginnings will be offered in your life this year.  By the end of this year, something about your career will be likely be totally new and different!

Pisces

Two of the five eclipses this year will fall in your 9^th House of Expanded Awareness.   Your world will be expanding over this year.  You could find yourself returning for additional education to further your career, or an opportunity for unexpected long distance travel may present itself.  People and places at a distance will also be calling to you.  It’s time to think outside the box!  The vistas of your life will be opening wide!

 

 

Astrological Energy for the Week…and Merry Christmas!

 

Merry Christmas Everyone! 

Wishing you the warmest and fuzziest of Days…

 

 

On Tuesday, Christmas Day when warrior Mars moves into far-reaching and independent Aquarius, assertive, forceful energy will be at its most rebellious, defiant, sweeping and eccentric.  Independence will be the name of the game.  And these next few weeks will be a radical and unconventional quest for freedom.  Rebellious natures – our own or others’ – will be rising to the surface.

 

 

Since Aquarius is the most independent sign of the zodiac and Mars is THE action planet that shows how we go all-out for what we want, Mars in Aquarius will be about courage and determination to succeed.  But we need to be sure it doesn’t end up being “success at all costs.”  Among others, one very good thing is that our minds will be fairly bursting with exciting new and innovative ideas and plans.  Another cautionary note, however, is that those folks having issues with authority figures could find themselves in ouchy situations pretty swiftly.

 

 

Also on Tuesday, December 25^th, the Sun will square off in tense energy to unpredictable Uranus, the ruler of Aquarius.  This aspect speaks to impatience and irritability.  Remaining as easy-going and flexible as possible will garner the best results.  And take care when driving home from “grandmother’s house” at the end of the day.  This energy can also be accident-prone.  This is a wake-up/shake-up call so we should be expecting the unexpected and then ride the energy!

 

 

Then on Wednesday, December 26^th, restrained Saturn makes nice with transformative Pluto and even though it’s holiday time, the energy undercurrent will be somewhat serious.  It will, however, also bring some needed stability and structure to our lives, keeping the day a little more grounded.  We’ll have strength and resilience now.

 

 

But this week’s headline event is the Full Moon on Friday, December 28^th at 7° Cancer.  The prevailing winds over the next few weeks can be pretty volatile since the Full Moon reactivates the ongoing soul-rattling energy of transformation associated of the continuing Uranus-Pluto square.   The Sun will form a T-square (which is a 180° opposition and two 90° squares) with Uranus on December 25^th and then a conjunction with Pluto on December 30^th.  And the Cancer Moon will be opposing Pluto and squaring Uranus.

 

 

We’ll be looking for what makes us feel safe, strong and secure with this full moon, but it may not be easy to define or find, especially since the ongoing Uranus-Pluto square is strongly connected and forcefully intertwined with this very powerful full Moon.

 

 

We’ll be challenged and called to release whatever is not serving our development, especially in the home/family versus work/career areas.

 

 

On a side note, the Moon will also be opposed to the partnership asteroid Juno, which can specifically relate to marriage and partners, so close partnerships may be up for change or transformation over the next few weeks.
