This is an exceptional New Moon because it lands at 25 degrees of Libra.  What is so exceptional, you say?  Well, let me count the ways.   First, this NM is in a Cardinal sign and represents assertive mental and social energy.  Second, this is the turning point to the July 22nd, 2009 Eclipse and is exactly square the Eclipse in July. Third, Mars is about to enter Leo on the New Moon ushering in a Mars cycle that will repeat everything we do from Oct. 17^th, 2009 until December 19^th, 2009.  As Mars retrogrades, issues arise that force you to reexamine your current direction.   Mars will reach 0 degrees of Leo on Feb. 28^th, 2010 and will remain there until March 21^st, 2010.  This period of time puts you in the same position that you were in on Oct. 18, 2009 only with more knowledge and, maybe, even a slight change in direction.  Thru the years I have watched this cycle and found that you can never really put your finger on the outcome.  Just know that it will refocus issues in concert with the Saturn re-entry into Virgo on April 8^th 2010.

This New Moon trines transiting Jupiter, Chiron and Neptune encouraging your dreams of expansion. Mars is inconjunct Pluto pleading for an adjustment to take place.  Transiting Venus is squaring transiting Pluto pressuring you in terms of relationships and finances.  Although this seems like a lot to digest, the challenges that you face at this time are instrumental in achieving your desired goals.

Saturn does enter Libra at the end of the month but nothing goes any further than January 14, 2010 when Saturn turns retrograde headed for 27 degrees of Virgo and its final sojourn thru the last degrees of Virgo.

Please read your rising sign as it will give you more insight into these events.

ARIES-(March 21-April 19)

This New Moon takes place in your 7^th house of partnerships.  There is pressure all around you.  Your 7^th house is stacked.  Career issues, energy issues, work issues, and financial issues all seem to be hitting you at once.  There are still indications that Uranus and Saturn are in orb of making your work and behind the scenes activity difficult to manage.  The most important aspect is Mars entering your 5^th house of children, creativity and recreation.   This Mars will trine your ascendant and provide you with personal energy and a new direction to follow.  If you have planets in a fire sign between the 0 and 19 degrees, this will be an awesome adventure.  These next couple of months holds the ideas and desires that you will manifest in July of 2010.

TAURUS-(April 20-May 20)

This New Moon takes place in your 6^th house of everyday work and health.  The Eclipse took place in your 3^rd house of communications and community in July of 2009.  Well, this is the turning point or change in that situation.  Since it takes place in your 6^th house of everyday work, I assume that it will involve your everyday work or this will manifest as a health issue.  You are looking at a new direction and your expectations  force you to evolve.  You are pushing hard for 9^th house issues but your biggest energy outlay with be in your 4^th house of home and core issues. The home is an outward manifestation of your inner self.  It seems that much has to be done in order for you to move forward with your plans.  January will complete this Eclipse cycle.  The energy is changing from earth to air.  That means from the practical to inceptions.  Take advantage of your creativity and continue to journal these next couple of months. 

GEMINI-(May 21-June 20)

This New Moon takes place in your 5^th house of children, creativity and recreation.  This is the turning point of the Eclipse of July 22^nd 2009 in your second house of love and finances.   There are opportunities that open up from 9^th house issues and provide you with insights for new directions.  The pressure comes to you from issues that deal with partnership finances or money from other people.  Communications and community will be the melody of the future. (Mars in Leo in 3^rd)  Watch these areas for the inspiration that comes from familiarity.  This NM trines your ascendant and 9^th house allowing you full use of your cognitive abilities.   

CANCER-(June 21-July 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 4^th house of home and core issues.  The 4^th house is representative of your home but on a deeper level, it reveals what your needs and abilities are at this time.  The Eclipse of July 22, 2009 took place in your 1^st house of personality and how people see you.  You have now reached the turning point to that specific incident and you ask yourself if this is what you want.  This is the next step in your journey to accomplishment.  Your major energy outlay will be in dealing with personal values and personal finances.  Mars entering the 2^nd house will re-define your personal values and finances in the next 6 months. The accent is love and money.

LEO-(July 23-August 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 3^rd house of communications and community.  The challenges that appear at this time are very important in your desire for specific accomplishments.  Mars entering your 1^st house of personality and how you appear to the world will be the foundation that you build on in the next 6 months.  This Mars will act as a mini-Saturn in redefining you and how you look to the world.  (I don’t just mean physically, either.)   Mars in the 1^st house indicates movement, travel, promotion and taking personal control over who and what you are.  This prelude of Mars in your 1^st house for the next 6 months prepares the way for Saturn’s re-entry into Libra, your 3^rd house of communications and community in July of 2010.  This Mars transit will definitely prepare you for the near future. 

VIRGO-(August 23-September 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 2^nd house of personal finances, love and values.  Saturn leaving Virgo and entering Libra will definitely leave its mark on the new you.  The previous 2 ½ years have literally taken your old outworn self and refashioned you into a new updated version of yourself.  We could call it “Project Your Way.”  Now Saturn is heading into your second house of values but before any of this starts to gel, Mars will be transiting your 12^th house of behind the scenes activity and activating your past.  This could be time that you spend in preparation or contemplation.  Mars will activate this area of your life for the next 6 months.  Challenges come with the NM in the 2^nd house.  This is a major time for you to start planning for the transit of Saturn in Libra.  You know what’s coming so now you can make a plan to deal with it.

 LIBRA-(September 23-October 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 1^st house of personality and how you appear to the public.  This is a very social time and a NM in this position offers challenges to changing your persona to the outside world.  How does this time make you different?  What has changed?  The answers to these questions will present you with new   challenges for the future.   Mars entering your 11^th house of hopes, wishes and goals will act like a mini-Saturn and refine and define new goals for you. This is in preparation for Saturn’s return entry into Libra in September.  Meanwhile, Mars will be taking over for about 6 months.  Good job, Libra.

  SCORPIO-(October 24-November 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 12^th house of behind the scenes activity, the past and preparation.  This is the turning point to the Eclipse of July 22, 2009 that took place in your 9^th house of legal matters, philosophy, higher education and foreign affairs.  This is a turning point and the challenges that appear seem to put you  much closer to your desired goals.  As Mars steps into Leo, career matters will be up for redefinition and redefining.  Mars will act like a mini-Saturn and urge you to make the appropriate changes to move you forward and redefine your career.  This will be in effect for the next 6 months and prepare you for Saturn’s re-entry into Virgo in July of 2010.

 SAGITTARIUS-(November 22-December 21)

This New Moon takes place in your 11^th house of hopes, wishes and goals.   The challenges that arrive with this NM point you in a direction that is necessary for you to look at and to make some decisions on your current goals. This is also the turning point or square to the Eclipse of July 22, 2009 that took place in your 8^th house of partnership finances.  Mars is very important at this stage and will act as a mini-Saturn during the next 6 months.  Mars will enter your 9^th house of legal matters, philosophy, foreign affairs and education, redefining these areas for you.  Saturn is on the move and entering your 11^th house of goals.  You are preparing for Saturn’s re-entry into Libra in July.

 CAPRICORN-(December 22-January 19)

The New Moon takes place in your 10^th house of career.  This is the turning point, or square to the Eclipse that took place on July 22, 2009 in your 7^th house of partnerships.  The most important aspect of this NM is Mars’s entrance into Leo, your 8^th house of partnership finances, sex, death and taxes.  This is where Mars acts as a mini-Saturn and redefines all your 8^th house matters.   This lasts for the next 6 months.  This simple little Mars retrograde will direct and focus you for the re-entry of Saturn into Libra in July of 2010.

AQUARIUS-(January 20-February 19)

This New Moon takes place in your 9^th house of legal matters, philosophy, higher education and foreign affairs.  This is a turning point to the Eclipse of July 22, 2009 in your 6^th house of everyday work and health.  The challenges that appear with this NM will help direct your energy to your desired goals.  The most important aspect is the Mars entrance into your 7^th house of partnerships.  This does not bode well for partnerships.  The focus will be on redefining partnerships so they will be workable during the next re-entry transit of Saturn in Libra in July of 2010.  Partnership issues take up the next 6 months.  Because this NM is in Libra, it is in trine to your Sun, Ascendant and transiting Aquarius planets.  Enjoy.

PISCES-(February 20-March 20)

This New Moon takes place in your 8^th house of partnership resources, sex, death and taxes.  This NM is the turning point to the July 22^nd Eclipse that took place in your 5^th house of creativity, children and love affairs.  The most important aspect of this NM is Mars entering Leo, your 6^th house of everyday work and health.  The Mars transit will act as a mini-Saturn and redefine your 6^th house of everyday work and health.  This lasts for the next 6 months and prepares the way for Saturn’s re-entry into Libra in July of 2010.  Saturn does enter Libra at the end of the month but because of the Mars transit, it will not fulfill itself until its final re-entry into Libra in July of 2010. 

This has been a tricky month.  Any errors you made in the last month have come back to haunt you.  I am looking at a box of switch plates that I ordered and they are the wrong ones.  I won’t have the correct ones for at least another 3 weeks.  That’s Mercury retrograde for you.  I have been in the process of ridding my closet of all the clothes that I never wear.  I always keep three sizes; one larger size for when I gain a little weight, one normal for my average size, and one smaller size for when I lose 10 lbs.  Now I have only one size.  I have found pants that have needed hemming for the last 5 years.  They are now positioned next to my T.V.  chair so that when I sit down to watch T.V. I can hem a pair of pants.   I know you’re not interested in my reorganizing but it is all a part of Mercury retrograde.  There are other things I’m reorganizing but I will not bore you with all the details. 

Saturn will be leaving Virgo at the end of the month and entering Libra.  I would like to give you a little Saturn hint about the time that Saturn spends in Libra.  As Saturn enters Libra, the vibration changes from Mutable Virgo Earth to Cardinal Libra Air.  Cardinal signs always initiate and adding Libra to the mix gives you social and partnership overtones to your daily routines.  Saturn’s step into Libra will last until April 8^th, 2010, when it re-enters Virgo to complete some unfinished business that occurs from October 10^th, to October 29^th 2009.   Whatever you are thinking and doing at this time will return when Saturn returns to Virgo to complete its final transit in Virgo.  This cycle will not be completely over until July 22, 2010.  Let’s get back to the unfinished business in Virgo.  Whatever you are doing from Oct.10, 2009 to Oct. 29, 2009 will return as unfinished business on April 7, 2010.  I hope I haven’t totally confused you.  The time that we spend in Libra is a look ahead to what is coming in July of 2010.   The time that we spend back in Virgo is a look back and a completion of what was going on in October 2009.

Take note of what happens this month for an idea of what is coming in April of 2010.

There is a Mars cycle that I need to share with you but the next New Moon will be time enough.  Did you know that when Mars goes retrograde it takes on the redefining quality of Saturn?   Until the New Moon, stay centered.

 Now for a lively Full Moon forecast in Aries.  This Full Moon has three transiting planets opposing transiting Uranus, plus a magnificent trine from transiting Uranus to transiting Mars.   Transiting Saturn is in an applying square to transiting Pluto and Pluto has turned direct as of September 11, 2009.  Mercury is going direct on September 29^th, 2009 at 21 degrees of Virgo.  The Sun in Libra will be making a trine to Jupiter on the 10^th of October just as Jupiter is about to go direct.  It will also trine Neptune and Chiron near October 17, 2009.  Full Moons are endings and this will not be any different.  As Saturn, Mercury and Venus oppose Uranus there are more endings.  This Full Moon in Aries ends many things quickly and effortlessly. A Full Moon in Aries is like an out of control train.   Uranus makes a wonderful trine to Mars eliminating any second thoughts you might have and paves the path for you.  The doors are open and you pass effortlessly into the next New Moon.

Please read your rising sign as it will give you more insight into these events.

ARIES-(March 21-April 19)

This Full Moon takes place in your 1^st house of personality and how people see you.  The oppositions of Mercury, Saturn and Mars land in your 6^th house of work and health and oppose Uranus in the 12^th house of behind the scenes activity.  This in itself will bring a close to any health problem you have had or work issue that has been lingering in the background of your mind.  Just the fact that it lands in your 1^st house tells me that it’s time for you to make some changes.  The Uranus trine to your Mars makes these changes effortless and improves your ability to handle personal situations from your home. Mercury direct on Sept 29^th, 2009 gets you moving forward without any obstacles to hold you back.   Mercury on the 8^th of Oct. 2009 finds you making plans and on the 14^th of Oct.2009 you may find yourself with personal restraints in partnership.  Mars will enter Leo on Oct.17^th, 2009 firing off the NM Eclipse of July 22, 2009.   

TAURUS-(April 20-May 20)

This Full Moon takes place in your 12^th house of behind the scenes activity and institutions.  This is movement but it is undercover.  This is a completion of sorts and the vibration that moves into your reality is the ending of certain personal and financial situations.  Uranus in your 11^th house makes communication exciting and a true relief.  Mercury will be urging you to make new plans to move forward on your path.  Venus, the ruler of your ascendant and 6^th house will be a stabilizing influence on Oct. 14^th, 2009.  There is a certain urgency that you feel but it is restrained energy.  Mars enters Leo on Oct. 17, 2009 and fires off the NM Eclipse of July 22, 2009.  This is important as it begins the Mars cycle.  Jupiter goes direct and your goals start to bloom in front of your eyes.

GEMINI-(May 21-June 20)

This Full Moon takes place in your 11^th house of goals as the Sun trines your ascendant.  Full Moons are completions and this forecasts the completion of any goals you might have had concerning home and children or creative endeavors.  The Uranus opposition to your Mercury and Venus from the 10^th house brings in decisions that deal with work and career as well as home.  These decisions are financially good for you and promise new beginnings effortlessly.  It’s time to move forward and that’s right up your alley.  You may feel some urgency in acquiring some institutional financing.  Oct. 8^th, 2009 finds you making new plans and on the 14^th you may see some personal restraints.  Mars enters Leo on Oct. 17, 2009 firing off the NM Eclipse of July 22, 2009.  Important issues follow with this Mars transit.  Stay tuned.

 CANCER-(June 21-July 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 10^th house of career.  There is the possibility of changes that deal with career options or your personal representation in the community.  This is a Cardinal Full Moon and has the energy and quickness of a darting arrow.  Uranus in your 9^th house in opposition to Mercury and Venus has you formulating a new plan to think about on the 8^th of Oct. and some restraints on your goals as of Oct. 14^th, 2009.  This same energy is trining transiting Mars in your first house making the mundane an exercise in personal wisdom.   Mercury will be direct and all things will be flowing in an orderly direction.  Mars will enter Leo on Oct. 17^th firing off the NM Eclipse of July 22, 2009.  Pay attention.

 LEO-(July 23-August 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 9^th house of philosophy, higher education, legal matters and foreign affairs.  This is not your ordinary FM, Leo. It is a Cardinal Fire sign that is moving in a direction at rapid speed and eliminating or ending some things that you have accomplished either educationally or philosophically.  Of course, you know that this can mean many more things but my impatience only allows for just so much explanation.  There are new plans coming on Oct. 8, and some interesting career restrictions on Oct. 14, 2009.  Most of these issues will be effortless because of the Mars trine to Uranus.  Mercury will be direct and moving everything in order.  On the 17^th Mars will enter Leo and fire off the Eclipse of July 22, 2009.  Pay attention to what happens next.

 VIRGO-(August 23-September 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 8^th house of partnership finances, other people’s money, sex, death and taxes.  The FM foretells of changes or completions in these areas.  Eighth house matters are a definite target for this FM.  There are other transits that form oppositions that may have some influence on this FM.  Mercury, Venus and Saturn are in the 1^st house in opposition to Uranus in the 7^th causing unexpected endings that deal with educational interest and career issues.  There are new plans on the horizon for the 8^th of Oct. and some limitations you may have to deal with on Oct. 14^th, 2009.    The most wonderful aspect that occurs at the FM is the Uranus trine to Mars in the 11^th house of goals.   Get done whatever you need to complete so it doesn’t haunt you during the period of April to July of next year. LIBRA-(September 23-October 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 7^th house of partnership and dealing with the public.  Partnership issues are of prime concern and they hold the answer to your more interesting questions.  During this FM there are planets in the 12^th house of behind the scenes activity that are in opposition to Uranus in the 6^th house of work and/or health promoting completions and changes.  You will find that Oct. 8^th encompasses new plans that involve current pressures.  On Oct. 14^th some personal limitations arise that need to be addressed.  Adding to that, there is a great aspect with Uranus trining Mars that occurs in your 10^th house and moving career issues effortlessly.  This is the perfect time for completions and new beginnings.  Many issues from the past complete themselves and new directions start to follow.  Good job, Libra.

  SCORPIO-(October 24-November 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 6^th house of everyday work and/or health.  This is a time of change and completion and it all revolves around your everyday world.  Some of you will be dealing with health matters and/or every day work matters.  The changes that occur are completions to past situations or concerns. You will find that on Oct. 8^th you develop new goals dealing with current issues.  On Oct 14^th, 2009 you may have to deal with receiving limited approval.  Another important aspect is a Uranus in Pisces in trine to Mars in Cancer that enhances your ascendant with effortless opportunities that revolve around children, creativity and love affairs.  Right up your alley, eh Scorpio. 

SAGITTARIUS-(November 22-December 21)

This Full Moon takes place in your 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs.  This is a Cardinal Fire FM reminding me that it is assertive and initiatory.  This Full Moon has a lot to do with 5^th house matters and completions of recent past issues.  There will be new goals made on Oct. 8^th and the realization that some obstacles present themselves on Oct. 14^th, 2009.  At the same time, Uranus is in marvelous aspect from your 4^th house to Mars transiting your 8^th house of partnership finances.   This can be exciting.  Unexpected finances may suddenly appear effortlessly.   CAPRICORN-(December 22-January 19)

This Full Moon takes place in your 4^th house of home and core issues.  Capricorn on the ascendant is a Cardinal Earth sign and holds a healthy respect for the Cardinal Fire sign of Aries.  There are completions here that feel totally appropriate.  On Oct. 8^th new plans emerge that deal with your everyday work; however, on Oct. 14^th some career limitations present themselves.  This is the turning point to the July 22^nd Eclipse.  Watch for issues to reappear but with some new important developments.  There is a wonderful Uranus aspect the makes all things possible and that is Uranus in the 3^rd house of communications in trine to Mars in the 7^th house of partnerships. Unexpected and positive communications flow from issues that deal with partnerships and the general public.   

AQUARIUS-(January 20-February 19)

This Full Moon takes place in your 3^rd house of communications and community.  There are communication issues that deal with your work environment and/or issues involving in your community are up for change and completion.  This is the turning point of Eclipse last July 22^nd, 2009.  The Sun in your 8^th house will be making a lovely trine to transiting planets in your 1^st house increasing your visibility and aiding you in making decisions.  On Oct 8^th there are new plans being made and by the 14^th of Oct. you will come face to face with some new financial limitations.  This sounds ominous; however, the good news is that on this FM, Uranus, the ruler of your sun sign, is positioned in your 2^nd house of personal finances, in perfect trine to Mars in your 6^th house of everyday work and health.  Work is on the scope for things to come.

PISCES-(February 20-March 20)

This Full Moon takes place in your 2^nd house of personal finances and values.  There are changes that take place in this area that seem to help complete or change some ongoing personal problems.  This can pertain to finances or love affairs but, in reality, it leans more towards personal awareness of what is needed and what is not needed.  This is the turning point to the Eclipse of July 22, 2009; therefore, issues from that time reappear and reach some sort of change or completion.  On Oct. 8, we see new plans taking shape for future partnerships.  By Oct. 14^th, 2009 some personal limitations appear to develop.  On the very positive side Uranus in your 1^st house of personality makes a wonderful trine to Mars in your 5^th house of children and love affairs.  Not too shabby, my little fishy. 

In my planning for this New Moon I was under the impression that it would be around September 24, 2009.  Imagine my surprise when I looked at the Ephemeris for this coming New Moon and it said September 18^th.  This NM is very important as it starts something for everyone that requires dedication, duty and/or responsibility.

This coming NM is at 26 degrees of Virgo in conjunct aspect to the Saturn Uranus opposition.  We are looking at a new beginning with this NM, but a NM conjunct transiting Saturn.  I imagine that the Saturn Uranus opposition will feed into this at some point, either before or at the time of the New Moon.   This New Moon may very well be a result of the Saturn Uranus opposition.  The Saturn Uranus opposition takes place in Virgo and Pisces at 24 degrees.  For those of us who have Saturn and Uranus in a harmonious aspect in our natal chart, this will be a relatively exciting and interesting change, certainly nothing you expected.  If your natal chart holds a difficult aspect between Saturn and Uranus,  the opposition will be stressful.  This NM conjunct transiting Saturn bellows a new beginning.  This is a beginning that entails more responsibility, restriction and a definite new base for building a foundation.  As we move through this energy, take note of what you wanted 2 years ago.   In the next couple of months it will be yours.   Also during this NM, Mercury is retrograde and squaring transiting Pluto causing intense and emotional communications.    Where does this aspect take place in your chart? 

If you read your ascendant sign first, it will be more meaningful for you.

ARIES-(March 21-April 19)

This New Moon takes place in your 6^th house of everyday work and health. The implication is that you will be taking on new responsibilities in regards to work and/or health.   Uranus opposes Saturn from the 12^th house of the past, preparation, the subconscious and institutions.  Be prepared for some conflict in these areas.   Some people are frightened at the prospect of a Saturn aspect, especially when it is in opposition to Uranus, but always remember that whatever leaves was not serving you any longer.  Some changes tend to be more stressful than others solely because of fear of the unknown.  This NM will take up the energy and direct you into making a new and stronger foundation in your health and everyday work.  The Moon will also conjunct retrograde Mercury and square Pluto from the NM position.  This promises a large amount of emotional and intense communications in dealing with career matters.

 TAURUS-(April 20-May 20)

This New Moon takes place in your 5^th house of children, creativity, love affairs and investment.  This NM sends a signal of added responsibility and new foundational changes that take place in your 5^th house.  At the same time the Uranus opposition seems to bring your goals in conflict with this new direction.  You may have to decide what is more important and bite the bullet on these matters.  Saturn has been redefining this area of your chart for awhile and, if this comes as a shock to you, its time to pay more attention.  There may be some intense and emotional rhetoric going on that focuses on education or legal affairs.  The results being that there may be some issues that fail to show their relevance in your life.   Take time to digest all that is happening and where you are headed.  Whatever happens in Virgo will be harmonious to your ascendant and/or Sun.  The new cycle is fast approaching.

 GEMINI-(May 21-June 20)

This New Moon takes place in your 4^th house of home and core issues.  This places Uranus in your 10^th house of career.  This NM brings in some new beginning that requires more responsibility on your part and the final release of a conflict.  Saturn in Virgo is in square by sign to your ascendant asking you to look carefully at what you have built for yourself.  Your core issues especially involving your home has gone thru substantial changes. These last two years have not been easy but what you have is a new foundation in your 4^th house of home and a renewed sense of self.  After this NM you will be headed for new territory.  Communications tend to encompass matters that deal with money, especially other people’s money and/or partnership funds.   

CANCER-(June 21-July 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 3^rd house of communications, community, brothers and sisters.  In so many ways you have chosen to substantiate this area of your chart for the last two years.   As you move into this NM, you will notice that some issues will come up unexpectedly and change your life.  It has been some conflict that has kept you from change.  Guess what?  This is the last conflict of this nature and it slowly disappears into the sunset after this next 2 weeks. The other change to look for is a new beginning in your 3^rd house of community and communications, that will require more responsibility and dedication on your part.  Partnership communications prove to be powerful and intense. You are entering new territory.

 LEO-(July 23-August 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 2^nd house of values and personal money.  The most important issue that you have faced in the last two years has been your values.  Values have everything to do with self worth.  So you may have had to look at issues that deal with self worth.  Money is an outward manifestation of self worth.  This is a personal yardstick by which we measure our expectations.  You have been redefining these areas in your life and in the next  couple of months you embark upon new challenges pertaining to your future.  You will leave some value issues (money or love) behind with this Uranus opposition to transiting Saturn and replace it with dedication and restraint.  Communication from your everyday work and health are intense and strong.   

 VIRGO-(August 23-September 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 1^st house of personality.  Saturn transiting in this position has been redefining your image and how people see you, and, more importantly, how you see yourself.  This is the beginning of a 30 year cycle. You are at the helm of this ship from now on.  Uranus opposes Saturn in your 1st house from the 7^th house of partnerships.  This indicates some conflicts will resolve whether you like it or not.  This new freedom gives you the dedication and strength to begin a new personal challenge that will require dedication and restraint from you. If you have the Sun or other planets close to this position, it will be quite a powerful NM for you.  There are strong communications that develop around the subjects of children, creativity and love affairs.  Be advised that you are heading into new territory and the experience will be a lot lighter. 

LIBRA-(September 23-October 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 12^th house of the past, preparation,  institutions, behind the scenes activity and clandestine relationships.  The last 2 years you have been clearing out lots of old baggage, both emotional and physical from your life.  You have mostly been riding the sidelines preferring to keep a low profile in order to deal with the baggage you have been accumulating up to this point.  This NM presents some challenges that only you can appreciate.  Issues that have brought conflict into your life are now going to be removed.  This may not be the way you want things but, in truth, whatever you release enables your personal growth.   Subconscious matters that have ruled your life in the past or present.  It is important to realize that the new beginning may involve your dedication to the future and what you really want in your life.  Communications can be intense and powerful. 

  SCORPIO-(October 24-November 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 11^th house of hopes, wishes and goals.  Saturn has been transiting your 11^th house redefining your goals.  As we approach the NM of this month, you will notice that it comes in with a bang.  The implication is that Uranus in your 5^th house relieves you of some conflict you have been having in regards to children, creativity and love affairs.  This may be sudden or unexpected but its time to move on.  Contingent on the Uranus opposition to Saturn there is a NM conjunct Saturn that echoes responsibility and restraint with incoming challenges.  Communications in relation to your goals can be strong and intense.  Your world is changing and you are in the driver’s seat.  

SAGITTARIUS-(November 22-December 21)

This New Moon takes place in your 10^th house of career conjunct Saturn and in opposition to Uranus.  Trust me when I say that changes are coming. In the last 2 years you have been redefining career matters.  In the next month there will be some new commitments that you dedicate yourself to.  The Uranus opposition to Saturn from the 4^th house of home and core issues asks you to release conflict in that area of your life.  You are headed into a new cycle next month complete with new challenges and expectations.  A lot of what comes in will be so much easier for you to contend with. Communications that deal with finances can be intense and powerful. Watch this month as much of what this last 2 years was about slaps you on the back. Congratulations are in order; you have achieved a certain victory. 

CAPRICORN-(December 22-January 19)

This New Moon takes place in your 9^th house of legal matters, higher education, philosophy and foreign affairs.  Along with the NM Saturn will be in direct opposition to Uranus transiting the 3^rd house of communications and community.  Some conflict will leave your life and put you in the position to dedicate all of your energy to achieving your desires.   Saturn conjunct the NM will place new responsibility and restraint at the top of your priority list. You are on your way to a pinnacle that you have been steadily preparing.  As Saturn moves into Libra, things will get a lot easier and you will have reached more of the pinnacle.  Try not to burn any bridges if you can help it.   

AQUARIUS-(January 20-February 19)

This New Moon takes place in your 8^th house of partnership finances and money from other people.  The NM will be conjunct Saturn and signal a new beginning involving 8^th house matters.  The 8^th house does have some significant importance in regard to finances but it is exactly the opposite view.  The question is what you will give me for my money or my love? The correct answer is (Anything of equal value.)  This may be brought about by the Uranus opposition to Saturn that takes place on or around the New Moon.  The opposition stems from the 2^nd house of finances and personal money and love.  This reverts back to self worth and what we believe we are worth.  Communications from the past seem to be stronger and more concise.  Take time to think during this NM and examine where you have been and where you are going.  A new cycle is just around the corner.

PISCES-(February 20-March 20)

This New Moon takes place in your 7^th house of partnership, personal or business, or dealing with the public.  As this New Moon approaches, you will notice that some conflict arises that makes it impossible for you to continue in the direction you were going.  You will have to contend with those issues pretty much on demand.  Some issues will leave your life whether you approve or not but they will significantly improve your aspects for the future.  Whatever leaves, let it go.  It will be replaced with something better. This puts you in a position of new responsibilities and restraints.  You’re heading for a new cycle next month that will usher in the Saturn in Libra transit.  Communications about the future are strong and intense.

Starting August 26, 2009 Mercury, Mars and Pluto  makes a Cardinal T Square at 0 degrees of Libra, Cancer and Capricorn, causing great assertive energy  to take place in the sign of  Aries.  You initiated with passion and purpose.  Check the house that Aries rules for more answers.  

Mercury retrograde on September 7^th, 2009 at 6 degrees of Libra comes in with some unforeseen breakdown in communication causing some delay in your plans.  Mercury retreats back into Virgo for some reorganization.   

Saturn at the time of this Full Moon will be at 23degrees of Virgo in aspect to opposing Uranus at 25 degrees of Pisces.    This will be the last in a series of three oppositions that have plagued us this year.  Think of Saturn as structure and foundations.  Think of Uranus as unexpected, seeking freedom and spontaneous.   These two planets in aspect together tend to level the playing field.  They are opposites, and there’s the rub.   Some structures in your life have been very demanding.  (Saturn)  The opposite is no structure. (Uranus)  The conflict must be resolved.  Where is your transiting Saturn?  Where is your transiting Uranus?  Take note of these placements as this is where the conflict will arise.

 On September 12^th Pluto goes direct moving forward to transform the area of your chart that it is transiting. Any aspects to this Pluto from a natal planet will cause a strong desire to accomplish something.

The rest of the month is promising to be very active.  This Full  Moon takes place at 12degrees of Pisces and the chart for the Full Moon includes some important aspects you might want to be aware of.

Mars in Cancer  in square to Mercury in Libra is part of the Cardinal T Square that started on the 26^th of August, making communication very intense. The opposition from Saturn to Uranus can possibly fire at anytime but it is scheduled for September 15^th, 2009. You will know if it does.  The next week should bring in some change in the house that Pisces occupies.

Below you will find the explanation of this New Moon in your chart.  Please read your rising sign as it will be more accurate to you personally.

ARIES-(March 21-April 19)

This Full Moon takes place in your 12^th house of the past and behind the scenes activity.   This area of your life also encompasses your subconscious, institutions, and clandestine operations.  This is where the changes take place.  The major activity has been taking place in your 1^st house of personality and appearance by way of the Cardinal T Square in your 4^th, 7^th and 10^th house.   Don’t be too surprised if some matters that deal with partnership do not appear to move as fast as you would like, but with Mercury going retrograde in your 7^th house of partnerships, some rethinking has to take place.  Your 6^th house of work seems to be supplying you with enough stress to make you rethink work situations.   This FM will make you slow down and take a breath.  Center yourself and figure out what you want.  Changes and delays make you rethink your position.

TAURUS-(April 20-May 20)

This Full Moon takes place in your 11^th house of goals, hopes and wishes.  Your direction and what you want to accomplish has changed and the interesting aspect of all of this is that things are not happening the way you expected.  The Cardinal T Square of Mars, Mercury and Pluto on the 27^th of August continues to activate your Aries 12^th house of the past, subconscious and clandestine operations.  Don’t be surprised if issues that deal with the 12^th house seem to look good one day and scary the next.  There are changes in the health area of your chart as well as your everyday work situation.  These subjects may not find a resolve for awhile or become problematic in the near future.  Saturn in your 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs is establishing a new foundation for you but not without stressing you out to the max.  There will be changes in this area. They will benefit you;  you just won’t know it at the time.

 GEMINI-(May 21-June 20)

This Full Moon takes place in your 10^th house of career and standing in the community.   Career changes ahead.  The changes that take place with this FM are not so unexpected but, they still require you to instigate a plan allowing you to forge ahead. The Cardinal T Square points to your 11^th house of goals as receiving a tremendous amount of activity.  Mars in your 2^nd house of values and Mercury in your 5^th house of children , creativity and love affairs and Pluto in your 8^th house make me think that you are initiating some new directions that encompass these goals.  Usually, when I talk about the 10^th house, I am talking about career but, in so many ways, we wear many hats and the 10^th house covers these areas also.  I am an Astrologer, a mother, a grandmother, etc. etc.. These are all different hats that I wear.  As I accept new facets of myself, I also increase the hats that I wear.

 CANCER-(June 21-July 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 9^th house of legal matters, philosophy, higher education and foreign affairs.  Changes that are occurring in this house are usually of a mental nature since much of this house requires your philosophical views to dominate any 9^th house issues.  Most of the activity has been focused on your 10^th house of career up to, and including, this FM.   There are discussions taking place that are pointed and direct.  Your ability to make things happen is on high.  Saturn Uranus opposition will have something to do with conflict involving home and career.  If you feel that this has a connection for you check your natal planets for more concise information.  You are making some things happen… good for you!  This will eventually redefine your financial house.

 LEO-(July 23-August 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 8^th house of partnership resources, other people’s money, sex, death and taxes.  Quite a mouthful.   There are indications that money from others is about to change.  This could come from a bank or Mortgage Company or an inheritance.  It is not your personal money.  The Saturn Uranus opposition is positioned in these opposing houses causing much stress and conflict.   At some time this month these stresses and conflicts will be resolved one way or another. Do not burn any bridges as these situations appear.  Your behind the scenes communications are best described as your point of view and very debatable.  Issues that deal with partnerships are getting clearer.  Heed your inner voice when it comes to making decisions.  You won’t be wrong.

 VIRGO-(August 23-September 22)

The Full Moon takes place in your 7^th house of partnerships, either business or personal.  Lately, you have noticed many changes in yourself and trying to fit the new you into an already established relationship is very difficult.  Your needs today are not the needs of yesterday or a year ago.  There are changes in this house at this time, but with Mercury going retrograde, I don’t know how long you will feel this way.  There is a strong amount of energy that you are putting into partnership resources.  The object is to acquire a more financial stability. This month will put some pitfalls in your way but, in reality, these are the pitfalls you missed.  Your goals are up for major discussions.  It’s all about the new you and what you want.  Stay true to yourself.

LIBRA-(September 23-October 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 6^th house of everyday work and/or health issues.  You have been eliminating issues and things from your life that taken up your precious time.  You have been in a period of reduction and scrutiny that has you releasing old habits and trying to build a new foundation for Saturn’s entrance into the 1^st house.  Partnership issues that have been up for awhile now seem to be taking hold.  Career communications are direct and will need to be revamped as Mercury goes retrograde.  The Saturn Uranus opposition involves your 12^th house of the past and Uranus in the 6^th house of work and/or health.  This stress will be over on or about the 15^th of September.  You will be entering a cycle to redefine your goals, friends, hopes and wishes that takes place in the next six months.

  SCORPIO-(October 24-November 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 5^th house of children, creativity, love affairs and gambling.  There is a major change that takes place here and it is one that has been a  possibility for awhile.  These are also the houses that hold the Saturn Uranus opposition that takes place later this month.  The conflict comes from your goals and for some reason not reaching them.  You know the reason but just don’t want to admit it.  You have been putting a lot of effort into 6^th house matters (everyday work and health) and they now seem to be taking form..  There will be delays but they seem to energize your convictions.  Mars square Mercury from the 9^th to the 12^th indicates some communications that are pointed and require discussion.   Stay level; stay centered; stay intuitive.

SAGITTARIUS-(November 22-December 21)

This Full Moon takes place in your 4^th house of home and core issues.  The changes that take place here have been in the works for a long time.  There is a change in the home but I want you to realize that these changes also take place on a personal and deeper level.  Your personal core issues are the foundations on which you build your home.  If there is a change in the home, there is a change in your core.  The Saturn Uranus opposition will also activate this career and home conflict.  You have been redefining your career and direction for two years and now the situation becomes more clear and defined.  There are heated discussions about goals.  The indication is that compromise is appropriate now.  Mercury will be going retrograde almost immediately delaying any further resolution.  You are making strong headway.

CAPRICORN-(December 22-January 19)

This Full Moon takes place in your 3^rd house of communications, community, brothers, sisters and immediate environment. The changes that take place in the 3^rd house have to do with changes in your environment or close relations.   At the same time Saturn has been transiting your 9^th house of philosophy, legal matters, higher education and foreign affairs.   The conflict that arises is usually mental and has the organization and fundamentals of Saturn conflicting with Uranus and the need for freedom and less stress.  This month will bring the last of those oppositions and Saturn will prepare to enter the sign of Libra on your 10^th house of career.  This is an accomplishment and a high point in your life.  Pluto in your first house and Mars in opposition have put you in an uncompromising position.  Think twice before you burn any bridges. 

AQUARIUS-(January 20-February 19)

This Full Moon takes place in your 2^nd house of personal finances, values and love.  The changes here indicate financial changes for you, personally, and changes in values that rule your desires.  The opposite 8^th house has had Saturn transiting this position for the last 2 years.  There have been conflicts and there is still one more to be visited upon us.  The final transiting Saturn and Uranus opposition seems to come to some conclusion on or about September 15^th, 2009. This is the last of the transiting Saturn Uranus oppositions for this year.  This will release you from the stress and conflict of the past year.   There is a lot of discussion going on with everyday work and legal matters or philosophy that poses problems in the near future that will be worked out in the next month.  (Mercury retrograde)  Things seem to be shaping up for the next cycle that we enter in October.      

PISCES-(February 20-March 20)

This Full Moon takes place in your 1^st house of personality and appearance.  Uranus has been transiting this house for the last 5 years creating unexpected issues and revolutionary changes.  This Full Moon changes you personally and how you appear to the world.  These changes can be physical and/or reveal new aspects of your personality never before realized. Saturn in the 7^th house of partnership has redefined your partnerships to make them acceptable to the new you.  On or about September 15^th there will be a Saturn Uranus opposition that will release you from current stresses.  This may take two weeks to realize but the conflict will be gone.  There has been a tremendous push for you to increase your personal finances. There are direct communications that point to activity but alas the Mercury retrograde delays the opportunity until next month.  Stay centered.

To all my astrological fans, we have survived the triple eclipse.  From my feedback, I have seen that some issues have been totally realized this week and others are on the time continuum of the ordinary eclipse, which reaches its peak in October.  This New Moon at 27 degrees of Leo is in opposition to Neptune.  The main idea is that Neptune houses are going to be spotlighted. (Pisces and 12^th house) The confusion we have been under for some time is now starting to clear.  Situations that were once up in the air are now closer to earth.  This New Moon also holds an opposition from Uranus to Mercury and Saturn.  Need I say more?  Some unexpected news is going to come.  This will challenge us to make an instant new plan.   Meanwhile, that Mercury Uranus opposition may be a bit unsettling and, if you add in the square of transiting Mars, we are looking at a Mutable T Square.   The absent leg of the T Square falls in Sagittarius.  For each of us the changes will be in the house that holds 25 degrees of Sagittarius.   The action will probably take place on or near August 27^th.   The Sun in Leo is in an out-of-sign trine to Pluto letting me know that certain areas will be in harmony with whatever we decide to do.   Another issue to contemplate is Mercury entering Libra on August 27^th.   On September 7^th 2009 it will start its retrograde journey back into Virgo to 21 degrees and then on September 29^th, 2009, it goes direct.  This can only mean a delay or a change of mind when September 29^th appears.  Saturn in Virgo and Mercury retrograding back to 21 degrees tells me that any issues that arrive on the 17^th of September will  have changes for you.

The opposition from Saturn to Uranus is about to get closer and closer. This will be the last of the Saturn Uranus oppositions but it does not fire until September 15^th.  If you know the details of your chart, the above info will be helpful.  If you don’t know the details the following forecasts will help if you know your rising sign.

Rules to remember…

 New Moons are challenges

 Full Moons are changes.

A T-Square is three houses in square to each other. (90 degrees apart)

A Grand Cross is when 4 houses square each other; each planet must be 90 degrees apart. It can also be Mutable, Cardinal or Fixed.  

Mutable (changeable), Cardinal (initiatory), or Fixed (in your face)

The action of a Mutable T square takes place in the empty house of the aspect.

ARIES-(March 21-April 19)

This New Moon takes place in your 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs.   Fifth house areas can only mean concern for your children and challenging the love affair status in your life.  The missing leg of the Mutable T Square is falling in your 9^th house. I imagine that issues that deal with children can be combined with personal philosophy, travel, legal matters, foreign affairs and education.   All or one of these will be prominent in the coming 2 weeks.  This is all new territory for Saturn.  It brings in new beginnings and new movement.  We have waited a whole year for this.   Situations that you began last September are now finding some conclusion.  Transiting Uranus in trine to Venus in the 4^th house brings in exciting activity that you will definitely enjoy.  The out of sign trine of the NM to transiting Pluto make career matters move very smoothly.

Future note: The Saturn Uranus opposition, which takes place in September 15^th, or thereabouts, has everything to do with the 12^th house of hidden matters and the 6^th house of everyday work and health

TAURUS-(April 20-May 20)

This New Moon takes place in your 4^th house of home and core issues.  There are some issues that you have been struggling with that are finally starting to clear up.  These have the blush of career issues.   There is also a Mutable T Square that includes the 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs; the 2^nd house of personal finances and love; and the 11^th house of hopes, wishes and goals.  The missing leg of this Mutable T Square is Sagittarius, your 8^th house of partnership finances and money from others.  The inference is that money from others is activated.  This is going to concern all 8^th house matters; sex, death and taxes, the occult, partnership finances and money from others.  The NM is in a out of sign trine to Pluto in your 9^th giving this situation a green light. Venus the harbinger of all things wonderful surpasses herself with a trine to Uranus in your house of goals.

Future note;   The Saturn Uranus opposition takes place on September 15^th, 2009 and involves your 5^th house of children, love affairs and creativity and your future goals.   This is the last in a series of three.    

GEMINI-(May 21-June 20)

The New Moon takes place in your 3^rd house of communication and community.  This NM is in opposition to Neptune.  Issues with your 12^th house of Taurus and behind the scenes activity will be highlighted as well as your 9th house of philosophy, legal matters and foreign affairs.  It seems that some things that have been unclear for awhile will now start to find some resonance.  The Mutable T Square that involves Mercury and Saturn in your 4^th house of home and core issues in opposition to Uranus in your 10^th house of career and square Mars in your 1^st seems to engage the four corners of your chart.  This change will be personal to you.  The empty leg of this Mutable T Square falls in your 7^th house of partnership.  Look for issues to revolve around partnerships, business or personal.  Venus in your second house forms a delightful trine to Uranus in your 10^th bringing social and financial gains to your career.  The NM also forms an out of sign trine to transiting Pluto in your 8^th house doubling your aspect for financial gain.

Future Note; Saturn is in your 4^th house and Uranus is in your 10^th house of career echo changes in these areas on or about September 15^th, or thereabouts.

 Rule. Mars transiting the 1^st house is movement forward or travel.

CANCER-(June 21-July 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 2^nd house of personal finances.  There may have been some financial issues that have been unclear for some time.  This NM has the ability to make things a bit clearer.  Neptune is the natural ruler of the 12^th house and of Pisces.  These houses will be important in clarifying some issues.  A Mutable T Square is also taking place involving the 12^th house of behind the scenes activity, the 9^th house of philosophy, legal matters and foreign affairs and the 3^rd house of communications.  The empty leg of the Mutable T square falls in Sagittarius, your 6^th house of everyday work and health.   This is where all the action takes place.   Look for situations to arise at your daily work or in health matters.  The 6^th house does have many more meanings to numerous to mention here but are available on Google. Venus in the 1^st house transiting Uranus in the 9^th house of philosophy legal matters foreign affairs and higher education.  This could be many things but the reality of the situation is that it will be very enjoyable.  The out of sign trine for the NM to transiting Pluto ensure a ease when it comes to matters of the heart.

Future note; the coming Saturn Uranus opposition will arrive on September 15^th, 2009 or thereabouts.  This is possibly a date that you should not travel on.

LEO-(July 23-August 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 1^st house of personality and appearance.  This NM is in direct opposition to Neptune in the 7^th house of partnership.  This indicates that issues that deal with partnerships are becoming clearer and less confusing.   Another important aspect is the Mutable T-Square  that involves Uranus in the 8^th house of partnership funds, in square to Mars in the 11^th house of goals and Saturn Mercury conjunct in the 2^nd house of money and values.  This is a Mutable T square and the empty house is where all the energy will show up.  The empty house will be the 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs.  Stay focused.  This NM is also in a out of sign trine to Pluto easing the work and health issues.  Venus and Uranus are in complimentary aspect making for an unexpected romantic rendezvous.  

Future note; a Saturn Uranus opposition will occur on September 15, 2009 that will involve your personal money and money that you get from others.  This continues to redefine your personal money.  

VIRGO-(August 23-September 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 12^th house of behind the scenes activity.  It makes an opposition aspect to transiting Neptune in the 6^th house of work and health.  You may find that issues related to these houses become clearer as time goes on.  The other major aspect in this NM is Mars in Gemini in the 10^th house of career in square to Uranus in Pisces in the 7^th house of partnership and Mercury Saturn in the 1^st house of personality.  This is a Mutable T Square and all the energy will flow to the empty leg of the T Square, which is Sagittarius your 4^th house of home.  So, expect the unexpected in home matters and core issues.   The NM makes an out of sign trine to Pluto in Capricorn from the 1^st to the 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs making situations in these areas flow easily.  Venus trines Uranus from the 11^th house of friends and goals to the 7^th house of partnerships promising exciting opportunities for partnerships.

Future note;  Saturn and Uranus will complete their final opposition on September 15^th 2009 and involve you personally and partnerships.

 LIBRA-(September 23-October 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 11^th house of friends, hopes, wishes and goals.  You may have had issues about children, creativity and love affairs that have been confusing for you.  This NM will oppose Neptune and clear up some of the unknowns for you.   Another important aspect to consider with this NM is the Mutable T Square that involves  Saturn and Mercury conjunct in the 12^th house of behind the scenes activity  in square to Mars in Gemini in the 9^th house of philosophy, legal matters and travel and in opposition to Uranus in the 6^th house of work and health.  Since this is a Mutable T Square, all of the energy of this combination of aspects will flow thru your Sagittarius 3^rd house of communications and community.  Watch this area of your chart light up.  Venus in your 10^th house of career trines transiting Uranus in your 6^th house of work and health adding a little excitement and good fortune to your life.  Another pleasant aspect is the out of sign trine of the NM in your 11^th house of goals to Pluto in your 4^th house of home and core issues.  You can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Future note; Saturn and Uranus will be in opposition from your 6^th house to your 12^th house.  watch for unexpected issues to arise that deal with work or health matters  around September 15^th, 2009

 SCORPIO-(October 24-November 22)

The New Moon takes place in your in your 10^th house of career.  it is in opposition to Neptune in the 4^th house of home and core issues.  You may have found that career and home issues have been confusing but, with this NM, the dawn will break.  Issues will become clearer.  The other important aspect is the Mutable T Square of Saturn and Mercury in the 11^th house of goals square Mars in the 8^th house of partnership funds and opposes Uranus in the 5^th house of children and love affairs.  All of this energy will be focused on your 2^nd house of personal finances and love.  Expect financial changes.  This NM is in an out of sign trine to Pluto in the 3^rd house easing communications and issues that deal with community.  Venus trining Uranus from the 9^th house of travel to the 5^th house of fun foretells of a splendid time for a get away.

Future note; Saturn and Uranus will conclude with this final opposition on September 15^th, 2009.  This may highlight your goals and dealings with children and love affairs.   

SAGITTARIUS-(November 22-December 21)

This New Moon takes place in your 9^th house of philosophy, foreign affairs, legal matters, education and travel.  You have been living with some uncertainty that seems to resolve itself during this NM and that is because of the opposition to Neptune in this NM.   Another major aspect is the Mutable T Square that involves Mercury conjunct Saturn in your 10^th house of career in opposition to Uranus in the 4^th house of home and in square to Mars in the 7^th house of partnerships.  The empty leg of the T Square falls in your 1^st house of personality and appearance.  I expect that you will be busy and trying your best to grow from this situation.  It’s all about the best part of your personality.  There is an out of sign trine from the NM to Pluto in the 2^nd house of personal finances and love, so I expect easy opportunities to surface.   Venus in Cancer in your 8^th house of partnership funds trines Uranus in your 4^th house of home and core issues.  Partnership finances are unexpected and are on the upswing.

Future note; Saturn and Uranus will be in their final opposition on September

15^th, 2009.  Look for freedom from issues of the home and career.

CAPRICORN-(December 22-January 19)

This New Moon takes place in your 8^th house of partnerships funds and other people’s money.  These issues have been iffy for a while but the NM in opposition to Neptune will clear some of the confusion.  The other major aspect with this NM is the Mercury Saturn conjunct in Virgo, your 9^th house of philosophy, legal matters and education, will oppose Uranus in the 3^rd house of communications and community and square Mars in the 6^th house of work and health.  The empty leg of this Mutable T Square is your 12^th house of behind the scenes activity.  Expect a lot of energy to come from the 12^th house that includes issues that have to do with institutions, the past, preparation and the subconscious.  There is a out of sign trine from this NM to Pluto in the first, making you look extremely good and, coupled with the Venus in the 7^th house of partnerships to Uranus in the 4^th, proves that love triumphs over all.

 AQUARIUS-(January 20-February 19)

This New Moon takes place in your 7^th house of partnerships in opposition to Neptune in the 1^st house.  There is an apparent understanding that is remarkably clearer today that it was yesterday.  Issues are starting to become more focused.  Another important aspect to this NM is the Mutable T Square that involves Mercury Saturn conjunct in the 8^th house of partnership funds in opposition to Uranus in the 2^nd house of personal values and finances and in square to Mars in the 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs.  The energy from this Mutable T Square takes place in the empty house which is Sagittarius in your 11^th house of goals.  This foretells of issues dealing with friends, hopes, wishes and goals.  This house will be busting open with changes and mega-activity.  There is, also, an out of sign trine from the NM to Pluto in the 12^th easing issues from the past and offering comfort.  Venus in your 6^th house of work and health forms a trine to Uranus in your 2^nd house of personal finances and love.  This is freakishly good, so open up to it.  There is a Saturn Uranus opposition that occurs in September around the 15^th that will be the last in a series of three that has been redefining other people’s money.    

PISCES-(February 20-March 20)

This New Moon takes place in your 6^th house of work and health and, if you have had any misconceptions about these things in the past, the opposition to Neptune sheds light on some of the confusion.  Another important aspect is the Mutable T Square that takes place with transiting Saturn conjunct Mercury in Virgo in your 7^th house of partnerships in opposition to Uranus in your 1^st house of personality.  Both

square Mars in Gemini in the 4^th house of home and core issues.  This specific aspect allows all the energy to funnel into the empty leg of the aspect.  This would be Sagittarius your 10^th, house of career.  Expect a lot of changes in career and issues that deal with how the general public sees you.  Your standing in the community is highlighted.  The NM also makes an out of sign trine to Pluto in the 11^th house supplying you with ease in achieving your goals.  Venus in the 5^th house denotes fun, especially, as it relates to your Uranus in the 1^st house of personality.  You have a divine glow about you.

The last of our big three Eclipses bellows forth on the 6^th of August.  For many of us it will be anti-climatic as so much has preceded this Eclipse but, fear not there are more changes in the offing.  This is a Full Moon Eclipse so you must expect changes.  Where the changes take place in your life depends on the area of your natal chart it ultimately resides.  Interestingly enough, this being the third and final eclipse in a series of three has an added message connected to it. We are entering into a new 6 month eclipse pattern that will involve a change in energy and direction.  The next 6 months will witness Saturn leaving Virgo and entering Libra.  It reaches 4 degrees of Libra.  It then turns retrograde and re-enter Virgo for its last and final pass before leaving Virgo permanently for the next 28 years.  During this change of energy the planet Mars will be making its journey through Leo.  This only happens when Saturn changes signs.  We all have our plans and mental goals dancing in and out of our consciousness but this transit of Mars takes on the energy of a mini-Saturn.  It ultimately focuses this energy into a specific direction made just for you.  This Saturn and Mars transit also has the added energy of Pluto in Capricorn to contend with. Saturn will square Pluto during this time and also square any planet between 0 and 4 degrees of a Cardinal sign. (Libra, Capricorn, Aries, Cancer) Check your natal planets for these points.   Our conversations will not be dull and the energies involved will definitely change the direction for all of us.  

Back to the FME.  Its position is in Aquarius, a constellation comprised of fixed air.  This energy ignores the obvious and resists any change that doesn’t fit into a precise mental picture.  If this takes place conjunct a natal planet or in opposition, it will definitly be personal to you.  If it occurs in the 1^st, 4^th, 7^th, or 10^th house, it will also increase the impact for you.  The square to this FME will occur on November 2^nd, 2009 bringing a lot of issues to a head and possibly resolving them. There is a possibility of this lasting longer. The aspects are varied during this Eclipse.  There is a significant Mars trine Moon and Jupiter and in square aspect to transiting Saturn.  An interesting adventure to be sure but difficult in terms of the energy you have to expend to achieve your desired outcome.  Venus has recently opposed Pluto adding intensity to a budding love affair and increasing communications.  Uranus, the planet of freedom and release, is still on the books for another hit to Saturn in September; however, there are just some issues that you have not let go of yet.   This FME is a direct result of the NME. Let’s look at this FME through the houses.

Please read your rising sign and/or ascendant as it will be more meaningful for you.  If you have interceptions, you will have to cut and paste.

Aries

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 11^th house of goals, group associations, hopes and wishes.  The major impact of this FME will lie in the conclusions you have reached during this eclipse.  You will change your goals but achieving them may be harder than you expected.  Fear not, my little fireball, as life’s adventures are the fuel that keeps you going.  The FME in Aquarius ignites your Uranus instinct for freedom but conflicts with the stress that you are enduring at this time.  There is a light at the end of the tunnel and you can see it.  Your goals will not be clear for awhile but the experience of the challenge has you enthralled. 

Taurus

This FME takes place in your 10^th house of career and guarantees a change in this area.  Career changes are positive.  Finances place you in a precarious position but thankfully, the reality of your life does not support this fear. The FME passes over the Jupiter Chiron and Neptune position exacerbating the fear of the unknown but also offering choices and opportunities. The opportunities are as varied as the habits you hang on to.   Hang tight, Taurus, this will work out good for you.  Release the fear; you can handle anything that comes your way.

Gemini

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 9^th house of philosophy, higher education, legal matters, foreign affairs and writing and publishing.  This is a Full Moon Eclipse so expect changes to come about in all or any of the above areas of your life.  Since this is a mental house, it may be something that challenges you mentally.  At this point in your life there many unknowns and that fact alone can have an impact on you.  This looks financially beneficial to you even though you will be under some duress to accomplish something.  There are many issues of the 9^th house that will not be solidified for awhile but your ability to juggle and manage will save you from any boring predicaments.    

Cancer

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 8^th house of partnership resources, other people’s money, sex, death and taxes.   Well, that takes in a mouth-full.  The interesting result of this FME can affect any and all of the above mentioned areas of life and, possibly, some I have missed.  The change is financial but not personally financial; this has to do with partnership monies, money you get from work, institutional finances and possibly, from inheritance.  Finances are in flux.  To say this is negative is incorrect.  To say this is stressful is correct. Your ability to nurture yourself will be needed at this time.  Nurturing everyone else will not help.

Leo

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 7^th house of partnerships (business or personal),  or directly dealing with the general public.  There are changes that take place in this area of your life but they seem to have an eye on your goals.  You will be working diligently to achieve some financial security. This is causing the stress in your life.  There has been some redefining in your financial sector for the last 2 ½ years and now you will understand where this has been going and why. Reach deep inside yourself for that ability to withstand the obvious hardships of life and come out smelling like a rose.

Virgo

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 6^th house of everyday work and health.  The changes that take place at this time may seem stressful but in reality they are positive.  The stress in your life solely comes from redefining who you are in relation to your career.  You are not sure about too much when it comes to your everyday work.  The unknown factors are not conducive to feeling secure.  You may feel as if there are a lot of issues up in the air.  Relax.  This is not the time to feel insecure.  Remember you’re the only one who knows exactly what’s possible.

Libra

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 5^th house of children, love affairs and creativity.  Changes in this area are usually difficult because of the subjects.  If it involves our children, the hair on the back of our necks stands at attention. If it involves a love affair, the hair everywhere else stands at attention.  The only safe bet is our creativity.  Or is it?  Gambling and/or stocks and bonds have recently been the an object of contention. recently.  This is a direct result of the NME and leads us into the future.  Let’s keep our focus forward and not towards the past.  Vacations are pleasant.

Scorpio

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 4^th house of home and core issues.  Again, I must repeat that anything that takes place in your home is an outward manifestation of what is currently going on under your skin.  Changes in the home manifest the changes that take place in your core.  Finances seem to be of benefit to you, but they are causing you an uncommon amount of stress.  The 4^th house has a lot of issues that have not been resolved as of yet.  This alone can put you over the edge.  Patience is a virtue and you have plenty of it.  Use it.

Sag

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 3^rd house of communication and community.  The line up of planets in this house keeps the ideas growing and rolling.  There are a lot of changes in what people say and what they do.  You may find that career matters are stressful at this time and yet there are opportunities.  Go figure.  The unknown factors in this scenario do not lessen yet.  You must remember that positive thoughts have a way of changing the stress in your life.  The Saturn Uranus opposition on the 10^th of September to the 18^th of September will release you.

Capricorn

The Full Moon Eclipse takes place in the 2^nd house of personal finances, love and money.  There are planets that indicate uncertainties in your life revolving around love and money.  This trio of planets in your 2^nd house of personal money has been in constant flux recently.  It is not over yet.  Look deep inside yourself for your own reassurance instead of looking to anyone or anything.  This is an important life lesson.  It resonates for all of us in some area of our lives. 

Aquarius

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 1^st house of personality and appearance.  To say that this will change who you are a given.  Where are you are going and when will it takes place are the questions that are constantly gnawing at you.  Stop for a minute and consider who you are, what you know, your life’s experience and your value as a person in this world.  Is it possible with all of that going for you,  that you will loose at anything?  This may be a challenging period but not anything you haven’t been tested for in the past.   Your quotient for success in your eyes is not the same as everyone else’s. 

Pisces

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 12^th house of the past, hidden things, the subconscious, behind the scenes activity, clandestine arrangements.  Now that I’ve made this sound seductive, I will definitely give you the true low down.  This is all about the everyday happenings that you cannot see.  This is all happening behind the scenes and enlarged by your imagination for the sole purpose to freak you out.  The area of concern for you personally should be your inner self.  There is no better security.  Everything is in flux and you are not privy to the answers.  Find you and you find security.

We are on the verge of a powerful New Moon Eclipse at 29 degrees of Cancer.  This is the second New Moon in Cancer in a row.  Think for a minute where Cancer is in your chart.  Cancer is nurturing, emotional, loving, traditional and very Cardinal.  The last New Moon in Cancer was in opposition to Pluto.  That was very dramatic in everyone’s life.  This NME is also in Cancer but at the end of the sign and it does make another aspect to Pluto, an inconjunct.  This is a major adjustment.  Also, there is the planet Uranus in trine to this NME emphasizing unpredictability and sudden opportunities for freedom. The next aspect is Venus square to Saturn, bringing in financial skepticism and some form of emotional isolation. Uranus also squares Pluto promoting unexpected events.  Mars sextile to Mercury promotes communication to improve the situation.  As you can see by the planets and aspects involved, this will be a strong Eclipse. If you have any planets involved in this NME, as I am sure you do, look to your natal chart to see how these planets activate.  If you have a natal Pluto trine the Sun, this will be a wonderful Eclipse for you.  Check mainly the Sun and Moon and then go from there.   You will see the area of your life that receives the strongest hit.  The importance of this NME is that it takes us into Saturn in Libra, the next 2 ½ year cycle.  If you know about Saturn transits, then you realize this is a major change in energy. This is Cardinal energy; you taking the lead and changing your expression in some way.  I am working on an article for Saturn transits in Libra with Mars retrograde in Leo.  This should give a heads up on what’s coming. If you noticed, the last NM in Cancer gave the impetus to do more and express more.  Well, here comes the sequel to that movie.  Be prepared to institute new actions, plans and programs that are a more up to date expression of who you are.  The house that this NME falls in is where the challenge takes place.  This NME does not have to be negative; it is all in how you view life.  The only sure thing is that it will be strong and last a long time.  The general consensus is that as long as the NME is in minutes is as long as it lasts in years. This NME lasts approximately 6 1/2 minutes.  Some situations will be revealed that you will have to take action on.  Depending on the aspects this NME makes will indicate the action you will express.

 Please read your rising sign as it will be more accurate to you personally.  If you have intercepted signs you will need to make adjustments.

ARIES-(March 21-April 19)

This New Moon Eclipse takes place in your 4^th house of home and core issues.  The home is the outside manifestation of your inner core,  so expect new beginnings that will be challenging.  Not only will you be making changes on the outside but you will be making very strong changes on a deeper level. The inconjuct with Pluto and Pluto’s square to Uranus makes a powerful and unexpected adjustment in your career sector.  The Saturn square to Venus accents the feeling that this is a lonely position to be in.  With your Aries ascendant and rising sign, you are definitely on the train to somewhere.  This is Cardinal heaven. 

TAURUS-(April 20-May 20)

This New Moon Eclipse takes place in your 3^rd house of communications and community.  Uranus square Pluto and inconjunct the NME leads me to believe that the action you are about to start has a definite connection to your goals.  These are all mental signs and positions; therefore, much of this action takes place on a mental level.  The 9^th house contains transiting Pluto leading me to believe that this house is being transformed as we speak.  This is the house of higher education, philosophy, foreign affairs, law, writing and publishing.  Personal finances,, children and love affairs are strained as this NME contains a Venus square Saturn.   There is plenty to talk about and, maybe, even a vacation.     

GEMINI-(May 21-June 20)

This New Moon Eclipse takes place in your 2^nd house of personal finances and values.  The Uranus square in the 10^th house of career to Pluto in the 8^th of partnership resources and inconjunct to the NME seem to be screaming new financial beginnings that happen very unexpectedly.  This train seems to jump the tracks and all of a sudden you are going in a new direction.  You may feel  as if you are leaving a lot behind as Saturn is restricted in your 4^th house of home. This is a strong time for you and a new beginning. 

CANCER-(June 21-July 22)

This New Moon Eclipse takes place in your 1^st house of personality and how you appear to the world.  The Moon represents change wherever it lands.  Imagine a new look or  travel..  Mars in the 12^th sextiles  Mercury in the 2^nd and opens communications for you.  Uranus in the 9^th house of philosophy, foreign affairs, higher education and law is in square to Pluto in the 7^th stressing legal matters with a partnership. The NME aspect of an inconjunct to Pluto reveals an adjustment has to be made. Venus in the 12^th house square Saturn in the 3^rd makes this NME feel insecure during this event.   There is a lovely Uranus trine to the NME acknowledging  that there is more freedom in store for you.

LEO-(July 23-August 22)

This New Moon Eclipse takes place in your 12^th house of behind the scenes activity, the subconscious and hidden matters.   If you have any secrets you are trying to keep under wraps, forget it.  This NME is like a spotlight on the 12^th house.  Everything will be on the table.  Uranus in the 8^th house of partnership finances, sex, death, and taxes squares Pluto in the 6^th, causing mega stress with partnership finances and your current work and/or health situation.   This 12^th house NME is in an inconjunct aspect to Pluto persuading you to make the adjustments needed.  Finances are sketchy but help is on the way.  You may have questions about partnership that can’t be answered at this time.

VIRGO-(August 23-September 22)

This New Moon Eclipse takes place in your 11^th house of goals, hopes and wishes.  You currently have transiting Saturn in your 1^st house begging you to rethink everything you are going to do.  This NME sheds a lot of light on your future goals.  The NME forms an inconjunct to the transiting planet Pluto  in the 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs, asking you to accept the adjustment that will be taking place in that area.  There is an indication that this adjustment will benefit you in the long run.  Mars in your 10^th house of career is causing communication stress due to some not so public conversations. This next six months will be all about what you want and how to get it.

 LIBRA-(September 23-October 22)

The New Moon Eclipse takes place in your 10^th house of career and makes an inconjuct aspect to Pluto to the 4^th house of home and core issues.  On one level the career sector is being activated but it requires an adjustment from you on some core level.  Uranus in the 6^th house is in trine to this NME showering you with opportunity from this adjustment.  Saturn in the 12^th is in square to Venus in the 9^th house.  This may make you feel a little restricted.  Communications will be an active part of this association.  Uranus does make a square aspect to Pluto in the 4^th from the 6^th indicating that some actions need transformation.  This may cost money but then what doesn’t ?

. SCORPIO-(October 24-November 22)

This New Moon Eclipse takes place in your 9^th house of philosophy, law, higher education and foreign affairs.  This is the area that will take up your time in the coming months.  There is a major aspect that involves Uranus in trine to the NME and also squaring transiting Pluto in the 3^rd house of communications and community.  The NME makes a major inconjunct aspect to transiting Pluto in the 3^rd house.  You can plan on a major adjustment that is going to offer you more freedom in the long run.  The changes that you make are necessary and you have to work with them.  This is a challenge and you will have to perform. 

SAGITTARIUS-(November 22-December 21)

This New Moon Eclipse takes place in the 8^th house of partnership resources.  The aspects that it makes require an adjustment from you that has to do with other people’s money or partnership monies.  Uranus in the 4^th house of home and core issues squares Pluto in the 2^nd house of personal finances forcing you to make some changes. This Uranus trines the NME releasing you from some restrictions and allowing you some unexpected and exciting news about your own direction.  A lot of communications are taking place in your 7^th house of partnership with regards to work and the new adjustments that have to take place.  This can be very interesting.

CAPRICORN-(December 22-January 19)

This New Moon Eclipse takes place in your 7^th house of partnership and makes an inconjunct aspect to transiting Pluto in your 1^st house. There are adjustments that have to be made and  worrying about them won’t make them happen any sooner or be more comfortable.  There is a trine from Uranus in the 4^th to the NME in the 7^th that confirms that these adjustments are necessary and will benefit you in the long run. This NME enhances your charisma in many ways.  There are a lot of communications that have to do with partnership funds and money from others.  You may find that there are new restrictions for you to deal with when it comes to work. AQUARIUS-(January 20-February 19)

This New Moon Eclipse takes place in your 6^th house of work and/or health matters.  The aspects that are important are the inconjunct to transiting Pluto in the 12^th house of hidden matters or institutions asking for an adjustment in dealing with issues from behind the scenes.  Another strong aspect is Uranus in the 2^nd house of personal finances to transiting Pluto in the 12^th house of hidden matters.  There is no escape from this but along with it is a Uranus trine to the NME telling me that there is financial opportunity waiting in the wings. There are restrictions, but it’s not impossible.  You still don’t have all the answers, but they are getting closer.  This next six months will tell the tale.

PISCES-(February 20-March 20)

This New Moon Eclipse takes place in your 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs.  There is more to this 5^th house but I leave it to you to find out.  This NME forms an inconjunct aspect to transiting Pluto in your 11^th house of goals, hopes and wishes, asking you to make an adjustment in your goals.  At first this may seem difficult, but in reality, there is a trine from transiting Uranus that leads directly to the NME in the 5^th of children.  Uranus in your 1^st house is making a strong aspect to transiting Pluto forcing you to eliminate a certain goal.  Communication is rampant and discussions are opportunistic.   Venus is squaring Saturn making you feel isolated.  The solutions are there and they will be apparent. 

After that explosive New Moon and all of its ramifications, we are about to embark on a journey made up of the next three Eclipses.  The Full Moon Eclipse takes place at 15 degrees of Capricorn, a Cardinal sign, indicating another couple of weeks of initiation on your part.  Where the FME lands is where there will be changes in your life.  This is the exact same experience as a regular FM, only more intense, so the changes that come up are also intense.  The FME will bring in a completion or ending to some area of your chart; however, the following New Moon Eclipse will be a direct result of the actions you take at this FME.  There is an inconjunct between transiting Venus and transiting Pluto that forecasts that an adjustment has to take place in dealing with money and/or love.  The trio of chaos and confusion are in square to Mercury trying to make sense of what’s happening and not helping.  If anything, you must relinquish the actions of the world outside.  Get centered if you want some inner peace.  Another aspect of opportunity is between Uranus Mars in sextile and making the opportunity for freedom and excitement available to you.  Transiting Saturn is trining this FME at the exact degree making  all things possible.  Pluto keeps stirring up the intensity.  Most astrologers only accept the conjunction or the opposition when delineating an Eclipse.   I choose to broaden the playing field and take into account direct trines and squares.  People usually never notice the trines because they are easy and do not cause a disruption in your plans. If any of your natal planets conjunct or oppose the Eclipse point, consider the vibration of the planet making the aspect; for instance,  the Sun is  vitality, Moon is emotion or home, Mercury is communication, Venus is love or money, Mars is action, Jupiter is abundance, Saturn is responsibility, Uranus is freedom, Neptune is illusion, Pluto is transformation.

 Natal planets conjunct to a FME indicate a conclusion to some situation with the energy of the natal planets involved.  Natal planets in opposite to the FME express the resolution or solution through the energy of the natal planet in conflict.

 Natal planets in conjunction to a NME always indicate a beginning challenge with the energy of the natal planet involved.  Natal planets in opposition to the NME always indicate a conflict with the energy of the natal planet in opposition to a beginning challenge.

Please read your rising sign as it will be more accurate to you personally.  If you have intercepted signs you will need to make adjustments.

ARIES-(March 21-April 19)

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 10^th house of career bringing changes and a completion to this area of your life.  There are opportunities with this FME even if you don’t see them immediately.  There will be a financial and/or emotional adjustment that you will be making during this FME; however, this is not negative.  Saturn has been redefining your 6^th house of work and health and you should start to see the results of that transit within the following 6 months.  This is all about how the world sees you and actualizing your goals.  Be mindful of the New Moon Eclipse that takes place in your 4^th house of home and core issues. 

They will be related. 

TAURUS-(April 20-May 20)

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 9^th house of philosophy, legal matters, long distances and higher education bringing some conclusion to some issues of the 9^th house.  Since this is a mental house, you will definitely be communicating your thoughts and opinions with people in your immediate area and community.  Personal freedom is promising and unexpected.  Career continues to be a bit confusing but becomes clearer as time moves forward.  There may be adjustments in love and finance but nothing you can’t handle.  It also seems that love affairs bring in some well deserved stability.     

GEMINI-(May 21-June 20)

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 8^th house of sex, death, taxes, partnership monies and other people’s money. Expect changes in money from others or through partnership finances.  Whatever situation that comes in with this FME will be the reason for the NME on July 22^nd.   Money seems to be on the agenda all month.   You will be forcing issues in order to find out where you really stand.  There is an opportunity for freedom in career, if you choose.   The FME trines Saturn making this FME responsibly correct.  Money, Money who’s got the Money?

 CANCER-(June 21-July 22)

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 7^th house of partnerships echoing change with a take charge attitude.  These issues can be personal or for business  and you will take the initiative and run with it.  As with all Eclipses this is not such a casual change but one imbued with its own sense of passion.  You may also make adjustments to partnerships from the past or have the opportunity for a clandestine romance.  There is a certain stability that comes from this FME on a more emotional side.  You entertain serious doubts that have to do with money from others or partnerships finances, but along with that, is an opportunity for more freedom.

LEO-(July 23-August 22)

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 6^th house of everyday work or health or both.  The changes that you experience will be deliberate and you will have a definite path to follow.  This is a time to make changes that you feel will help you attain your goals.  Issues behind the scenes or dealing with institutions and/or the subconscious tend to be the chewy part of this cookie.  Financially, you are feeling in control.  There are still questions and concerns about partnerships that won’t clear up for awhile.

VIRGO-(August 23-September 22)

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs.  Saturn is still in your 1^st house but makes a wonderful trine to this Full Moon Eclipse.  Unfortunately, it may go unnoticed because of the Eclipse.  Capricorn is a Cardinal sign so I know you will take charge and plow through while keeping your goals clearly in sight.  It seems you take a stand; especially, when it comes to children, creativity and love affairs. There are issues that deal with your work or health that are still unresolved questions.  Uranus in the 7^th house has been playing ping pong with your partnerships.  You may find some adjustment in career or career finances.

. LIBRA-(September 23-October 22)

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 4^th house of home and core issues. The only safe plan is no plan.  It looks as if  home will be a hub of frenzy for awhile.  There is a take charge attitude that you decide to adopt and in this instance, it is necessary. Take into consideration that the Moon represents home and career and you may be thinking about working from home.  Whatever shape this FME takes will lead to your taking more action on the NME on July 22^nd.  Saturn in the 12^th seems to be getting rid of all the emotional baggage you have been hording as of late.  It’s important to note that you are in control.

SCORPIO-(October 24-November 22)

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 3^rd house of communications, community brothers and sisters.  The spotlight is on communications and your immediate environment. There is a resolution indicated that requires you to take charge of the current situation.  Your ability to think on your feet will be a highly prized commodity.  There seems to be unanswered questions about home and core issues that you seem unable to solidify.  This FME trines Saturn by direct degree enabling you to feel comfortable with your current decisions.  Lighten up; this will be a long summer. 

SAGITTARIUS-(November 22-December 21)

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 2^nd house of personal finances and values.  This indicates that you will be making a decision that has a lot to do with your personal finances and relationships.  This is an assertive change that you make in relation to the issues of this house.   The trine to Saturn in the 10^th means you are comfortable with career thoughts. There are still unanswered questions about work or health but a lot of discussion will be happening.   An intense adjustment takes place with partnership matters.

CAPRICORN-(December 22-January 19)

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 1^st house of personality and appearance.  The obvious is currently how you look and how you have changed since the last FME.   The FME in the 1^st house also indicates initiating travel plans and, boy do you deserve it.  Issues that have to do with work and finances are receiving a major adjustment.  Financial issues are still up in the stratosphere but some creative footwork is about to pay off.  The trine from Saturn in the 9^th to the FME says you are comfortable with your recent conversion.

AQUARIUS-(January 20-February 19)

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 12^th house of hidden matters, the subconscious and the past.  There is an indication that you will initiate some exploration of the 12^th house issues.  This has been in place for awhile and your fear needs to be released.  Your independence has been confused with control and getting to the heart of the matter is very important.   You have had some unexpected ups and downs financially but some opportunities are looming.  This has been emotionally testing and tense.  Center yourself daily if need be.

PISCES-(February 20-March 20)

This Full Moon Eclipse takes place in your 11^th house of goals and group affiliations.  You seem to take the initiative when it comes to what your heart is currently seeking.  There are some issues that conclude at this time that bring your goals directly into focus.  Look for unexpected communication to open some doors to your dilemmas that are situated in the background of your life.  There are some adjustments taking place deep in your home or core issues.   There are some great creative opportunities surfacing around you.  Keep your eyes peeled.

As we look at the beginning of June, it is safe to say that Mercury, Saturn, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Uranus are all direct.   Neptune and Pluto are retrograde and Jupiter is expected to follow on June 15^th, 2009.   This is a perfect time to start whatever has been pending or whatever you want to begin.  This is a window of time where most of the planets are direct.  Jupiter, Chiron and Neptune are still causing most of the ambient noise and distractions but your path forward starts to open.  Jupiter retrograde continues its association with Chiron and Neptune and continues keeping certain issues still nagging at you throughout this conjunction period.  This unknowing stays with us well into February 0f 2010.  Our only saving grace is that Jupiter will release its grip on this conjunction around July 23rd, 2009.   All of these planets have been in square to retrograde Mercury and are still in square to Mercury direct even thru this FM.  At this point in everyone’s life there are issues that cannot be concluded and that you feel are totally out of your control. These issues will continue to be unresolved for a time but we must try to accept the status quo and live within the boundaries we have set up for ourselves.   If you have other means of enduring the unknown energize them.  Enough about unknowns, let’s get into the known.

This Full Moon contains a Mutable T square with the Moon at 17 degrees of Sag, Saturn at 15degrees of Virgo and the Sun at 17degrees of Gemini.  The energy from this T- square empties into the house that holds 17 degrees of Pisces.  So take your chart in hand and locate the house that holds the FM, as this is where the changes will take place;  however, the focus will be from the house that holds 17 degrees of Pisces.   We continue to experience the trio of unknowns looming over our heads like grey rain clouds and, of course, still in square to Mercury giving us plenty to talk about.  On the brighter side there is a trine aspect from Mars and Venus to Pluto that gives us something to feel good about.  

Below you will find the explanation of this New Moon in your chart.  Please read your rising sign as it will be more accurate to you personally.

ARIES-(March 21-April 19)

This Full Moon takes place in your 9^th house of philosophy, higher education, foreign affairs and legal matters.  This FM is in a Mutable T-square to Saturn at 15 degrees in your 6^th house of everyday work and health and the Sun at 17 degrees of Gemini, in your 3^rd house of communications and community.  This setup portends to change.  If you follow the energy of the T-square, you will find it they lead you to the 12^th house of institutions and behind- the-scenes activity.  Think of subconscious issues that you may be battling on a philosophical level. The trios of unknowns are still hovering but you are learning to live with it. Uranus is in good aspect to Mercury opening the doors to unexpected communications.  Venus and Mars are in trine to Pluto in the 10^th house promising the potential for love and money. 

TAURUS-(April 20-May 20)

This Full Moon takes place in your 8^th house of partnership finances and other people’s money.  It forms a mutable T-square to the current transiting Saturn in your 5^th house of children and creativity and the Sun in your 2^nd house of values and love. (Changes) The most important note is that all of the energy of this T-square empties out into your 11^th house of goals.  Think changes in financial goals.  Mars and Venus are in your 1^st house amplifying your charisma by trining Pluto in the 9^th house.  There is a great aspect between Uranus and Mercury making communications a reliable resource.  There are still dark clouds in the career area of your chart but resist the urge to dwell on the unknown.

 GEMINI-(May 21-June 20)

This Full Moon takes place in your 7^th house of partnerships (business or personal).  The FM forms a Mutable T-square to Saturn in the 4^th  house of home and core issues and the Sun in your 1^st house of personality.  Because of the placement of the Sun, Saturn, and the FM in angular houses, these changes will be on a personal level.  The outlet for this energy is the 10^th house of career. There are major changes taking place in partnerships and dealing with the public, all due to career objectives.  You are a major player in this life drama.  Some matters are still in worry-mode but communication has opened the door to emotional negotiations.   Venus and Mars are in your 12^th house- of-behind the scenes activity giving new life to your 8^th house of sex, death and taxes.

 CANCER-(June 21-July 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 6^th house of everyday work and health.  It forms a T-square that includes your Saturn in the 3^rd house and the Sun transiting the 12^th house.  The energy from these planets empty into your 9^th house of philosophy, legal matters, foreign affairs and higher education promising changes that revolve around 9^th house matters.  Interestingly enough, these changes take place in your everyday work or health area.  Other people’s money and partnership funds still hold the planetary trio of financial chaos and invite you to worry.  Communications lead to unexpected realizations when it comes to your goals.  Venus and Mars are holding court in your 11^th house of goals cooking up some pleasant surprises. 

LEO-(July 23-August 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 5^th house of creativity, children and love affairs.  It also forms a Mutable T-square to Saturn in your 2^nd house of values and the Sun in your 11^th house of goals.  The energy from this T-square empties into the 8^th house of partnership finances, other people’s money, sex, death and taxes.  This will be the area that requires the most attention and will express the FM in your 5^th house.   Think of your money needs.  Partnership issues are still in a state of confusion and the resolutions are not forthcoming yet.  Venus and Mars are in excellent aspect to Pluto in your 6^th house providing praise and applause.  Communications are at a high and unexpected developments arise spontaneously.

 VIRGO-(August 23-September 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 4^th house of home and core issues.  It forms a Mutable T-square to transiting Saturn in the 1^st house of personality and the Sun in the 10^th house of career. This combination releases all of its energy into the 7^th house of partnerships.  Think changes in the home due to partnerships.  (Business or personal)  This is important as these are angular houses and changes that take place in theses houses are always of a personal nature.  The ungainly trio of chaos still looms in your 6^th house of everyday work and health.  Saturn in your 1^st house is going direct completing issues that you have been trying to attain for the last 9 months.  Venus and Mars in your 9^th house are trining your transiting Pluto in the 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs.  There are good times on your agenda. 

LIBRA-(September 23-October 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 9^th house of philosophy, higher education, foreign affairs and legal matters.  The most important thing to acknowledge in this set up is that the planets involved in this Mutable T-square are primarily mental houses and secondly, tertiary houses. This tells me that these changes of the current FM involve you on a personal level; however, think of these as changes due to revamped priorities or ideas.  This is a time to get rid of all the old emotional baggage that we take with us on our continuing journey through life.  The changes that take place in the 3^rd house have to do with communications and your current work and living environment.  Think changes in your neighborhood or in the work place.  Children, creative endeavors and romance still have some unresolved issues that need to be explored.  Try to look ahead without letting go of the moment.

 SCORPIO-(October 24-November 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 2^nd house of personal values, personal finances and love.  There is a basic change that takes place deep inside you on your level of values.  This Mutable T-square involves the 2^nd house of values, the 11^th house of goals, and the 8^th house of partnership finances, etc. etc.  The energy of these three houses empties into the 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs.  You may be thinking that you are not being appreciated or not respected by children or the people closest to you.  This can be a hurtful thing to deal with and find a sense of peace.  You may be spending money on children or close relationships. The best option yet is that you are in Vegas spending lots of money and having a ball.  All three are possible. You get to pick.  Some home issues are still looming in a dark cloud overshadowing your mental Vegas escape.  Venus and Mars are sending you complimentary and interesting communications.

SAGITTARIUS-(November 22-December 21)

This Full Moon takes place in your 1^st house of personality and how people see you.  This is also the area to look for any kind of travel and movement personal to you.  Since this FM takes place in the 1^st house, you are guaranteed a lot of movement.  The Mutable T-square involves the 1^st house, the 10^th house of career and the 7^th house of partnership (Business or personal).  The energy from these planets all empty into the 4^th house of home making  the 4^th house a focal point in this FM.  You may very well be traveling because of home or deeper issues of the 4^th house.  These changes carry some benefits for you.  Communications with children and/or lovers tend to hide some issues that need to be seen in the light of day.  Mars and Venus in your 6^th house of everyday work and health seem to be showering you with accolades and financial appreciation.

 CAPRICORN-(December 22-January 19)

This Full Moon takes place in your 12^th house of hidden matters, the subconscious, the past.  The Mutable T-square involves Saturn in the 9^th house of legal matters, higher education, foreign affairs and philosophy and the 6^th house of everyday work and health and, of course, the FM in the 12^th house.  This is a lot of energy but I feel that it is ethereal energy.  What I mean by that is that it seem s to all take place on a mental or emotional plane.  The changes take place in the background of your life, or subconscious and focus on family members or communications.  Just the fact that Saturn squares the Moon during this FM makes me uncomfortable. Issues that deal with children and love affairs are pleasantly laid in your lap.  Financial issues are still hovering and causing some background anxiety. 

AQUARIUS-(January 20-February 19)

This Full Moon takes place in your 11^th house of goals.  The Mutable T-square  of Saturn in the 8^th house of partnership funds, the Sun in your 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs and the FM in the 11^th house combine their energy and direct it to the unoccupied 2^nd house of personal finances and values.  Your personal finances hold the key to a change in your goals.  New developments cause you to change direction.  There are some goals that you have been working on for awhile that have been slow to show up on the positive side of life’s ledger or garner any financial sympathy.  Things will be changing, as will your attitude.  You are in a funk and don’t know how to escape.  You are talking a lot about the future but there are many questions that go unanswered.  Venus and Mars provide you with some respite from the outside world.

PISCES-(February 20-March 20)

This Full Moon takes place in your 10^th house of career.  The Mutable T-square involved in this FM brings changes to your 10^th house because that is where the FM takes place, but in reality, it produces some movement on a personal level also.  Saturn in the 7^th house of partnerships puts the focus on you and your personality.  You may feel as if you are receiving more attention than you have had in the past and you are right.  This is all about you, your career and the choices you have made in the last two years.  Communications bring some desired focus on your goals and offer interesting pathways to travel.  Expect the unexpected and run with it.   The cosmic trio secluded in your 12^th house constantly reminds you of the looming unanswered questions.  Life is good and you will survive.

We are all looking forward to the results of Saturn direct.   What have you learned in the last 5 months?  It has been tumultuous for some of us.  This last Full Moon has left you with a direction.  Maybe not the one you wanted but definitely a way for you to proceed.  You can think of it this way.  Last September you were on your way somewhere with a direction in mind.  Now you are at the same position but you are free of the obstructions that were not working for you.  This may or may not be what you wanted but it is reality.   The genius of the Saturn direct is that in the next 4 months you will make definite headway in your life. Let me digress for a moment. The next cycle contains a change in signs for Saturn and with that a specific course of aspects come into play.  The last 6 months of the Saturn in Virgo cycle is the most important to us.  This is a culmination of the last 2 years.  What you were seeking then is on the current horizon now.  As Saturn moves into Libra, we will have a distinct change in energy.  We will go from dealing with changes to initiating the changes we desire.  Libra is a Cardinal Air Sign and whatever house it is in is where you will spend the next 2 ½ years redefining.  So much for dealing with Saturn.

This New Moon takes place in the sign of Gemini at 3 degrees.  The chart for this New Moon holds a couple of interesting aspects.  This New Moon is in a 150 degree aspect to Pluto.  This is called an inconjunct.    Inconjuncts between any two planets cause some adjustment in the houses they occupy.  In this instance it is part of a New Moon promising to linger until after the Full Moon next month.  Mercury is in square to Chiron, Jupiter and Neptune of which all three are conjunct.  This is a perfect example of chaos. This is definitely very meaningful for you if you have planets or points at 26 degrees of Aquarius, Leo, Scorpio or Taurus.  Gemini is the planet of duality.  It is very changeable and with an inconjunct to Pluto, there is a certain major adjustment that is taking place in your life.  We are all making this adjustment, just in different areas of our lives.   

As we move into the summer, Mercury is retrograde in Taurus and you will find yourself back in that practical frame of mind.  You will be tying up loose ends and making your life a bit more comfortable.  Mercury in Taurus is in trine to Saturn in Virgo so it has to be something you’ve wanted to do.  Mercury goes direct on May 31, clearing the path for Mercury in Gemini.  Where is Taurus in your chart?  That’s where Mercury is establishing some continuity.

Jupiter, Neptune and Chiron are conjunct in Aquarius.  These three planets together form an uncomfortable trio.  Jupiter, the planet of expansion; Chiron, the asteroid of the wounded healer; and Neptune the planet of illusion and delusion all joined together to square Mercury.   There are a lot of unknowns bouncing around and your desire to be perfect feels conflicted.  I think you will find that this is all part of working thru a certain situation.  Ease up….watch it work out, don’t help it work out.

The Sun Moon conjunction is at 3 degrees of Gemini establishing a new water mark on your chart. 

Uranus is at 26 degrees of Pisces and 30 degrees away from our trio of bouncing unknowns.  This is called a combust aspect and acts as a conjunction.  So now we have the trio of bouncing unknowns conjunct an unexpected event.  This I have to see!  

I think I’m having some fun with words.  I have dissected the New Moon and its aspects on a general forum so I will now do your individual rising signs. 

Below you will find the explanation of this New Moon in your chart.  Please read your rising sign as it will be more accurate to you personally.

ARIES-(March 21-April 19)

This New Moon takes place in your 3^rd house of communication and community.  You may notice that there is a major adjustment taking place very close to home base, as the NM inconjuncts transiting Pluto in your 10^th house of career. These changes prove to be very important to you as they are personal challenges to your career and standing in the community.  There is a trio of transiting planets that are perfecting the meaning of chaos.  Jupiter, Chiron and Neptune are conjunct and in square to Mercury.  Luckily, Mercury is back in Taurus trining Saturn so untangling this web of inconsistencies is going to be your main focus.  This is not something that you can dismiss in a day or a week.  It will stick around till the end of the month or longer.  Mercury retrograde in Taurus is communicating some concerns about money or values and trying to dispel any negative unknowns.  Saturn in your 6^th house continues on its direct journey to redefine your 6^th house of work and health. 

TAURUS-(April 20-May 20)

This New Moon takes place in your 2^nd house of personal finances and values and makes an inconjunct to your 9^th house of philosophy, legal matters, foreign affairs and education.  This constitutes a major adjustment in your values and in the things that you hold dear.  This is an important time for you to realize what is important to you and how you have to adjust your current philosophy to accommodate your new ideas.  Saturn, is direct in Virgo, making this a very comfortable adjustment.  Mercury is retrograde in your 2^nd house of finances and values and probably causing you undue amounts of anxiety because of bouncing trio of unknowns.  It all works out well for you, my Earth Angel.

 GEMINI-(May 21-June 20)

This New Moon takes place in your 1^st house of personality and how people see you.  You have Pluto transiting your 8^th house of partnership finances, sex, death and taxes and in an inconjunct aspect to this New Moon.  There are issues here that are signifying a change deep within you, engaging your beliefs with partnership finances, mortality and money from others.  Quite a range, but if you look closely they all boil down to the same thing, an adjustment in the money that you receive from others. What you give for what you get.  Mercury is still retrograde and will delay things for a bit.  Saturn is direct and solidifying core issues in your belief system.  Your major question is always, “Is this what I really want?”

CANCER-(June 21-July 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 12^th house of past, behind-the- scenes activity and institutions.   It is in aspect to Pluto in your 7^th house of partnership, promising a major adjustment is in the making when it comes to partnerships, either business or personal. This can be a very sensitive time for you and your sensitivity is showing. Saturn is direct and continuing its journey thru your 3^rd house of communications and community redefining relations with your neighbors and close relatives.  Mercury is retrograde in Taurus your 11^th house of goals trying to clear up any misgivings or bothersome unknowns in this area of your life.

 LEO-(July 23-August 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 11^th house of goals, hopes and wishes.   The inconjunct aspect between the New Moon and Pluto signals some important adjustments that have to be made within your work environment or with health issues.  You are in a process that requires your clear attention and ability to distinguish the real issues from the pie-in- the sky dreams.   Saturn in your 2^nd house of personal money and values has been under redefinition for awhile and the lessons you have learned have not been easy.  Take heart, you are a better person for what you have learned.  Mercury retrograde in your 10^th house brings back practicality to your career life and goals.  Partnership issues seem to only provide you with more questions.

VIRGO-(August 23-September 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 10^th house of career and standing in the community.  The inconjuct aspect between the New Moon and Pluto in your 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs can prove to be problematic.  There is an adjustment about to take place and the indication is that it will work better for you.

Saturn in your 1^st house going direct in your 1^st house of personality has not been the most comfortable ride in the amusement park.  If anything, it has had its moments of total fear.  It’s not so easy to create the new you.  Communications don’t offer a lot of consolation at this point but they do help you to work things thru.  You are in a process. 

LIBRA-(September 23-October 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 9^th house of philosophy, legal matters, foreign affairs and education and forms an inconjunct aspect to Pluto transiting your 4^th house of home and core issues.   You have been called upon to change some of your core beliefs; this adjustment is necessary and will open you more to life than you know. You are in a process of recognizing your value and worth as an individual.  Core issues are changing as is your philosophy dealing with self worth.  There are many things you may be talking about but nothing seems to have the answers you can count on.  You are on the right track.  Mercury retrograde will impart practical and useful ideas into the mix but it definitely delays the outcome.

SCORPIO-(October 24-November 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 8^th house of partnership funds, sex, death and taxes bringing new dimensions to your Scorpio intensity.  The inconjunct between the New Moon in your 8^th house and transiting Pluto informs you of a pending adjustment that has to be made in your 3^rd house of communications and community.  This can be a negotiation or some type of movement.  The  object of this aspect involves your  home issues or work issues. This is about money, just not your money.  There seem to be a lot of unknowns and creative ideas circling around but none you feel comfortable with yet.  This is a time of discovery and there is no way to rush it.   Ride the wave and see where it takes you.  Uranus in your 5^th house of creativity is combust or 30 degrees from our trio of Neptune, Jupiter and Chiron in the 4^th house of home and core issues bringing in expectation, excitement and the unexpected to your home.  You will love it.

SAGITTARIUS-(November 22-December 21)

This New Moon takes place in your 7^th house of partnerships, either business or personal.  The major aspect that this New Moon involves is an inconjunct to transiting Pluto in your 2^nd house of personal money and values.  Inconjuncts, invariably always initiate some form of adjustment.  If we look at the houses involved, we see that the adjustment deals with partnerships or dealing with the public and personal values.   Like all adjustments they are not accomplished in a day so this may take a bit of time.  There are still a lot of unknowns to deal with and try to put into some kind of order.  It’s like trying to unknot all the wires hidden behind your desk.  There is a lot of fun attached to the coming month.  Take your time and enjoy.

CAPRICORN-(December 22-January 19)

This New Moon takes place in your 6^th house of everyday work and health.  You may be reluctant to make any permanent decisions until all the facts are in but this is definitely a time for major adjustments in your everyday work and health and your presentation to the world.  This is a time for practical thinking, of which Mercury retrograde in Taurus will be of a great advantage.  If you are not a patient person, here is your time to present that part of you.  Finances are a major concern as concrete facts are not available at this time.   Communications play a major role in trying to communicate your dilemma. Unexpected communications and concerns seem to control the oxygen content available to you at any given time.  This is a process and you need to trust the path.

AQUARIUS-(January 20-February 19)

This New Moon takes place in your 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs.  This N M makes an inconjuct aspect to transiting Pluto in your 12^th house of the past and behind-the-scenes activity.  There is a major adjustment taking place between these two alignments.  Many 12^th house issues are hard to interpret because they take up residence in the recesses of your life.  The adjustment may have to do with children, or any creative element in your life.  What we know for sure is that your thinking will be involved and that the adjustment takes place in the background of your life.  There are other things that are of great concern and that is the trio of planets that inhabit your first house of personality, Jupiter, Chiron and Neptune a threesome of chaotic intent.  These three planets will lead you down a primrose path or deliver you into the depths of confusion.  Communication does help and will make things clearer in time. 

PISCES-(February 20-March 20)

This New Moon takes place in your 4^th house of home and signals that an adjustment must be made to your current goals.  Home and core issues are the focal point of this inconjunct aspect between the New Moon and your current goals.  You will be asked to make an adjustment and you will see the writing on the wall.   The prospect of a life changing event is possible but not in the way that you expect.  There is a trio of planets in your 12^th house that takes you on a fantasy voyage and then let you languish in the reality of the present.  For some of us this can be interesting, and for others a constant skinny dip into the lake of the unknown.   Try to stay centered;  go for concrete ideas and avoid the trip to la la land.
