Happy New Year to all 

The New Year has arrived and if January is a sample of what’s coming, hold on to your pants.  Mercury will be turning retrograde on 1/11/2009 and will not go direct until 2/2/2009. In the process it re-enters Capricorn.  Whenever Mercury changes signs during a retrograde, it brings with it a change in mind.  Also on 1/11/2009 there is the Full Moon at 21 degrees of Cancer.  We are heading into a New Moon Eclipse on 1/26/2009.  You are more than likely starting to see the tension building in some area of your life.  And now for the piece de resistance…There will be a Saturn Uranus opposition in the works from 1/30/2009 to 2/11/2009 and exact on 2/5/2009.  Out with the old and in with the new.  Try to keep this in mind as these period progresses.  Whatever leaves needs to go; whatever new (even if uncomfortable) enters, hang on for the ride.  This is happening with Uranus at 20 degrees direct in Pisces and Saturn at 20 degrees retrograde in Virgo.  Where they land in your chart will be where the action is. 

Venus will be entering Pisces and romance will fill the air.  Mars is currently in Capricorn pushing for dominance in whatever house it is in. Jupiter makes its leap into Aquarius on 1/5/2009 changing the vibration to mental pursuits rather than activating plans.  Pluto is now firmly entrenched in Capricorn challenging us to re-vamp any situation that has crumpled under scrutiny and building new structures from the bottom up. I’d say we are in for quite a month.  If you have noticed, Mars conjunct Pluto produced a lot of anger, violence and war.  Let’s hope the Mercury retrograde slows it up.  As we move forward to 1/26/2009, there is a New Moon Eclipse at 6 degrees of Aquarius.  New Moon Eclipses often come in with a challenge.  This will be no different except there will be a transiting Jupiter conjunct this Eclipse.  Jupiter so close to the Eclipse point takes a very active role in the delineation.  Imagine that wherever the Eclipse falls in your chart what kind of effect would there be if you threw Jupiter in the mix? Look to the house that is ruled by Jupiter, which is Sagittarius. That house will be involved in this Eclipse as well as the idea of expansion.  We will have more on this in the next installment.

Please read your rising sign as my forecasts will be more personal to you.

ARIES-(March 21-April 19)

This Full Moon takes place in your 4^th house of home and core issues bringing some changes into your home.  There have been a lot of upsets in career objectives with Mars in your 10^th house of career. Jupiter will be entering Aquarius, your 11^th house of goals, opening new vistas.   Venus in Pisces is in your 12^th house of the past and close to a conjunction to Uranus bringing in the unexpected on the 24^th but disappointment on the 25^th.  Uranus and Saturn will be in opposition from the Jan. 30^th to Feb. 11^th, 2009 and exact on Feb. 5^th, 2009.

TAURUS-(April 20-May 20)

This Full Moon takes place in your 3^rd house of communications and community.  You will notice that there are changes in your community, where you work and/or live.   These changes have an unexpected and exciting opportunity attached to the Full Moon.  This promises your goals will be at the top of your priority list. The volatility of this Mars Pluto conjunction has the ability to produce some anxiety over matters at a distance.  The Full Moon taking place in your 3^rd house may also involve family members.  Jupiter takes a position in your 10^th house of career promising expansion and more opportunity.  Transiting Saturn in your 5^th house of children, creativity, and love affairs is going to oppose Uranus in your 11^th house of goals on 2/5/2009.  This aspect is never easy but what it accomplishes for you is what you desperately need.  Let go of old patterns that revolve around matters of the 5^th and restructure your needs.

GEMINI-(May 21-June 20)

This Full Moon takes place in your 2^nd house of love and money.   You were born with the ability to do more than one thing at a time and your current financial situations will require all of your dexterity.  The great thing about this Full Moon is the trine to Uranus from the 2^nd house to the 10^th, indicating financial rewards or recognition from career. The Mars Pluto conjunction has taken place in your 8^th house of other people’s money or partnership funds bringing finances to the forefront of your life. Jupiter has entered Aquarius releasing its bounty in your 9^th house of philosophy, legal matters, foreign affairs and higher education.   Any and all of these matters will receive Jupiter’s beneficial rays.   Saturn and Uranus are in opposition from Jan. 30^th, 2009 until Feb. 11^th, 2009 and exact on Feb. 5^th.   New beginnings are around the corner.  

CANCER-(June 21-July 22)

This Full Moon falls in your 1^st house of personality and how the world sees you.  There were some upsets with partnerships this last month.  The Pluto Mars conjunction has taken place in your 7^th house of partnerships placing a spotlight here for all to see.  Partnership issues are about to be transformed by Pluto.   This will take some time.  It will not happen overnight so find your peace in this area.   Jupiter has entered Aquarius, your 8^th house of partnership finances.  Partnership funds and other people’s money are on the increase.  This Full Moon trines Uranus in the 9^th house of higher education, philosophy, legal matters and foreign affairs causing you to unexpectedly take action on a sudden opportunity.  Saturn opposition Uranus is in effect from Jan.30^th, 2009 to Feb. 11^th, 2009 and exact on Feb. 5^th, 2009.  Remember: this is out with the old and in with the new.

LEO-(July 23-August 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 12^th house of the past, subconscious and institutions.  You are concerned with reclaiming your spirit.  Most of the actions you are involved with are taking place behind-the-scenes.  This will benefit you financially. Jupiter has entered your 7^th house and is expanding your horizons with partnerships either, business or personal.  The Mars Pluto conjunction has taken place in your 6^th house of everyday work and/or health.  Some of these issues will be around for awhile. Saturn opposition Uranus takes place in your 2^nd and 8^th houses.  These houses have a lot to do with values, money and, possibly, death of a situation.   Keep your eyes open and your ears perked up as a Full Moon Eclipse is on the horizon for you in Feb.

VIRGO-(August 23-September 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 11^th house of hopes, wishes and goals.  You will find that this Full Moon trines Uranus in the 7^th house promising partnership opportunity.  It all happens unexpectedly. Pretty exciting, Virgo.  Saturn transiting your 1^st house and in opposition to your Uranus in the 7^th does not really spell harmony for partnerships.   You may be looking for someone to comfort you in your current situation or you could resolve to work on partnership issues.  Jupiter enters your 6^th house of everyday work and health promising expansion in both areas.  The Mars Pluto conjunction took place in your 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs.  This area will be a hot potato for some time. 

LIBRA-(September 23-October 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 10^th house of career and standing in the community.  Changes taking place in your career are putting a lot of impact on your home and living arrangements.  These changes may be unexpected but definitely in a positive way.   You may feel a bit insecure about situations that take place at home. Pluto has just entered your 4^th house promising that things will be disruptive on the home front.  There will be a transformation here and it will go on for awhile.  Jupiter has just entered the 5^th house of children, love affairs and creativity allowing this area of your life to blossom.  The Saturn transit takes place in your 12^th of the past in opposition to Uranus in your 6^th house of every day work and health.  Look for the release of old patterns and habits and the taking on of new and improved healthy alternatives.

SCORPIO-(October 24-November 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 9^th house of philosophy, higher education, legal matters and foreign affairs.  Changes in this area offer new opportunities that take place unexpectedly either on a vacation or in dealing with children.  Jupiter has just entered Aquarius, your 4^th house of home and core issues.  This promises to expand your home or moving to larger quarters.   You will also be more open to releasing the restrictions you may have put on some of your core issues and broadening them to include more opportunity for growth.   The Mars Pluto conjunction has taken place in your 3^rd house of communications and community making communications an important area in your life.  Saturn transiting your 11^th house of goals in opposition to Uranus transiting your 5^th house of children, love affairs and creativity will be exact on Feb. 5^th, 2009.  New goals in relation to 5^th house matters need to be written for the future.

SAGITTARIUS-(November 22-December 21)

This Full Moon takes place in your 8^th house of sex, death, taxes and partnership funds.  This may change the way you pay your bills or how your bills are paid.  This does provide a benefit in terms of your home and core issues where unexpected opportunities will develop.  Jupiter has entered Aquarius, your 3^rd house of communications and community promising more expansion in these areas.  If you are looking to increase your communications, this is the perfect year to accomplish this.  The Mars Pluto conjunction has taken place in your 2^nd house of values and love.  This promises to be very important in the coming month as your values will be disrupted and affect your finances.  Saturn transiting the 10^th house of career and in opposition to transiting Uranus in the 4^th house indicates a major set back in career issues.  Look deeper into the issues and you will find that stagnation and boredom are not something you can tolerate.

CAPRICORN-(December 22-January 19)

This Full Moon takes place in your 7^th house of partnerships promoting changes in dealing with business or personal partnerships.  This does offer opportunities in communications and/or with your community that are quite unexpected but, also, exciting.  Partnerships issues change but in the best way.  Jupiter has entered Aquarius, your 2^nd house of finances, suggesting that this year there will be expansion in your values that always translates into more money and more love. The Mars Pluto conjunction took place in your 1^st house of personality and how others see you.  I imagine that this last two weeks have put you in action.  Be careful.   Don’t loose your focus as you will be running at top speed.   Transiting Saturn in your 9^th house of philosophy, higher education, legal matters and foreign affairs will be opposing transiting Uranus in your 3^rd house of communications and community on Feb. 5^th, 2009.  This is not an easy aspect but it will eliminate old 9^th house attitudes and allow new and exciting ones to form.

AQUARIUS-(January 20-February 19)

This Full Moon takes place in your 6^th house of everyday work and health. Issues of this house have come to some resolution and changes are needed in this area.  The changes are unexpected; however, they manifest beneficially.  Jupiter has recently entered your 1^st house and will broaden your horizons.  Just be careful that it doesn’t broaden your waistline or butt.  Travel is always a good way to use Jupiter in the 1^st house.  The Mars Pluto conjunction has taken place in your 12^th house of behind-the -scenes activities.   I am sure that there have been some upsets for you having to do with the past and, possibly, being impatient.  This continues during this month. Saturn in your 8^th house of partnership resources, sex, death and taxes is being redefined as we speak.  Transiting Uranus will be in opposition to Saturn on 2/5/2009 demanding that you let go of your old structures and build a new structure that will connect with the you of today. 

PISCES-(February 20-March 20)

This Full Moon takes place in your 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs, advocating changes that must take place.  Some of these changes come to you very unexpectedly and are for the most part exciting and emotionally pleasing.  Venus in your 1^st house brings out the coy romantic in you.  The Mars Pluto conjunction has taken place in your 11^th house of goals and upsets here have marred your ambition but only for awhile.  Jupiter in Aquarius has entered your 12^th house of the past and behind-the-scenes activities promoting openness and a last minute savior.   You will not be able to keep any secrets during this transit. Forewarned is forearmed.  Saturn has been transiting your 7^th house of partnerships. This has not been easy as the whole reason Saturn is here is to redefine partnerships for you.  You may find that you are unable to continue with a partnership because of feeling oppressed or growing apart.  Uranus in Pisces in the 1^st house is demanding more freedom on a daily basis.  They become exact on 2/5/2009.  Oppositions are only won by compromise.

Seasons Greetings!

I am so thrilled with this Holiday season.  I feel like the President-Elect will have a big change in his effect on the politics of the day.  I did some research on the President-Elect’s Chart.  Do you realize that he will have a transiting Jupiter conjunct his natal Jupiter on his inauguration day?  Think about this for a moment…Jupiter is entering Aquarius….Idealistic, independent, always for the common good.  That’s a lot of what we like about him.  Maybe politics will return to be For the people and not To the people.   I am hopeful.  This Holiday Season is more and more heart warming as I immerse myself in the holiday spirit.   This season is promising to be a spectacular and a very loving event. I hope you share your holiday season with people you care about and love. I have a lot to say about this New Moon in Capricorn so I best get to it.

This New Moon is at 6 degrees of Capricorn and for all of us, the go-get-um spirit of Capricorn is not only around, it is permeating everything this next month.  Mars, Pluto, Sun, Moon, Mercury, and Jupiter are all in Capricorn.  Wow!  Mars is on a train in Capricorn and will make conjunctions to natal and transiting planets forming beginning cycles to each.  Mars conjunct Pluto on the 29^th of December ushers in some powerful energy.  Depending on where it lands in your chart will be the telling fact for all of us.  Then, just like clockwork, Mars will conjunct the Sun, Mercury and Jupiter.  The Moon will have moved too quickly to get caught by Mars.  These are all new beginnings…Mars will conjunct the New Moon Sun on January 4^th and 5^th of 2009 giving you boundless energy and the ambition of a mountain goat.  As I move forward to see Mar’s next conjunction to Mercury, I can see that Mercury will be going retrograde on the 10^th of January at 7 degrees of Aquarius. As it retrogrades, it goes back into Capricorn to make its conjunction to Mars in Capricorn on January 27^th, 2009.  This has the ring of a serious debate.  The Mercury retrograde continues until it turns direct at 21 degrees of Capricorn on February 2, 2009.  When there is a change, in sign there is usually a change in mind.   We will talk more about this in January.

Not only is there a Stellium in Capricorn, but there is an additional Stellium in Aquarius.  As I review the chart for this New Moon, one aspect in Aquarius stands out like a red light; that is on this New Moon, there is a Venus conjunct Neptune. This promises love, giving, romance and generally good feeling.  The negative part is the overdoing of a good thing.  As far as aspects go, Saturn is in a wide trine to Jupiter and still in opposition to Uranus.  Saturn is going retrograde on Jan. 31^st extending its stay at 21 degrees until summer. 

This next month will bring in a New Moon Eclipse on Jan. 28^th, 2009 at 6 degrees of Aquarius.  I will have more about this in the next installment. 

ARIES-(March 21-April 19)

This New Moon takes place in your 10^th house of career and standing in the community.  There may be a situation that arises that involves career and it began around December 25^th and/or 26^th.  We all are aware that New Moons bring in a challenge that is usually fulfilled by the Full Moon, but in this case, you may find that this situation goes beyond the normal time limits and involves the Mercury retrograde and the New Moon Eclipse on Jan. 26^th.  Your Aries energy is high as this New Moon squares your Sun and puts you in a mood to fight for what you want or, at the very least, setting out on a relentless quest.  Pluto entering Capricorn, your 10^th house, transforms all your career moves from now on.  Stretch and grow Aries.

TAURUS-(April 20-May 20)

This New Moon takes place in your 9^th house of legal matters, education, philosophy and foreign affairs.  Mars transiting this house will be stirring up conditions and situations that will influence the next few months.  Your Sun or any planets you may have in Taurus will be in trine to this New Moon and form an ease in acquiring information you might need in the coming months.  The Mercury retrograde goes back to Capricorn in mid January revealing some undisclosed information. Flexibility is the keyword for you this month, Taurus.

GEMINI-(May 21-June 20)

This New Moon falls in your 8^th house of other people’s money, partnership finances, sex, death, and taxes.  The challenge here will definitely involve another person or persons.  Mortgages, loans, inheritance and money from partnerships  are sure to bring up conflicts.  Do not assume anything.  Be as focused as possible and read the fine print.  This New Moon is followed by a New Moon Eclipse that promises to involve the next 6 months. Go slow.

 CANCER-(June 21-July 22) 

This New Moon falls in your 7^th house of partnerships, business and/or personal.  Challenges that arise at this point will seem to create more obstacles.  Any planets you have in Cancer will be affected by this New Moon.  This will be an opposition to your natal planets bringing in some endings to certain cycles.  Mercury retrograde will lengthen the process until late February.  Pluto transiting Capricorn from here on will have a transformational power on all partnership issues. Try not to be reactionary.

Leo-(July 23-August 22)

This New Moon falls in your 6^th house of everyday work and service to others. The challenges you face will be difficult to overlook even though you will try.  Conflicts with work issues arise even though you are in a positive stance for personal increase in monies.  If you have health issues, you will notice that the situation is not gloom and doom but a revelation of facts that support you in the coming months.  Be as flexible as possible.

VIRGO-(August 23-September 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 5^th house of children and creativity.  Virgo on the ascendant immediately reminds me that Saturn in transiting your 1^st house has an indelible mark on your personality. Taking that into consideration and the fact that Virgo trines Capricorn, your challenge cannot be measured in conflicts but in opportunities.  The 5^th house has plenty of fun opportunities.  The only issues that will continue to plague you in the coming months will be work issues and partnerships. Keep your eyes open for the opportunities.

LIBRA-(September 23-October 22)

This New Moon falls in your 4^th house of home, core issues, beginnings and endings.  The challenge comes from where your home or from the inner core of your being.  You will be asked to make some important changes that require you to stretch your knowledge base and grow in order to satisfy the powers that be.  Your home and inner self are about to become very important in the coming years: yes, years.  Pluto transiting through Capricorn will dictate your 4^th house future.  Any planets you have in Libra, Cancer, Aries and Capricorn will be personally affected. This New Moon is just the beginning.  Transformation is a reality.

SCORPIO-(October 24-November 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 3^rd house of communication and community.  The challenge here may come in thru communication with others or with family.  This has the ability to keep you involved in communications for a lengthy period of time. You may also find that it may feel like a power-play; however co-operation is the best way to prevent this.  Communications will be the area that is transformed by Pluto from now on and for some years to come.  You are still under the benefic ray of Uranus, so experiment!

SAGITTARIUS-(November 22-December 21)  

This New Moon takes place in your 2^nd house of personal finances and values.  This becomes a new power point for your values. Pluto conjuncts Mars on this New Moon and ushers in new and powerful challenges in and around your values.  This New Moon and the Mercury retrograde will extend these issues for awhile.  Watch the 25^th, 26^th, 27^th  for interesting news about finances.  Saturn in Virgo in your 10^th house still persists in pushing you to outgrow your career base. Expect to be changed from the inside out.

CAPRICORN-(December 22-January 19)

This New Moon takes place in your 1^st house of personality and, with that, I give you Mars conjunct Pluto in your 1st house.  If you think you have been going thru changes lately, you are in for some very interesting years starting with this New Moon.  Situations will appear that have everything to do with how you appear to the world.  They will start to come about as I write.  Mars in the 1^st house moves you forward to increase your visibility and influence.  You will definitely make new moves and surprise yourself in the doing.  The Mercury retrograde is tied into this new Moon and the New Moon Eclipse of next month.  You are taking giant steps into the future.

AQUARIUS-(January 20-February 19)

This New Moon takes place in your 12^th house of the past, institutions, preparation and the subconscious.  This New Moon signals Mars and Pluto are conjunct in Capricorn ushering in a transformation the likes of which you have never seen before.  This is the background of your life; what made you who you are.   This is the subconscious.  If you have any emotional baggage, it will not allow you to continue with it.  Pluto thru the 12^th opens up your psychic abilities and transforms your mind.  This will be exciting and challenging all at the same time. The Mercury retrograde lengthens this process thru the Eclipses.  So changes are coming mostly in how you think and deal with the past.

 PISCES-(February 20-March 20)

This New Moon takes place in the 11^th house of hopes, goals and wishes.  Along with this New Moon, you will be ushering in Pluto to your 11^th house promising transformation of friends, your goals and desires.  The Mercury retrograde begins in this house. It will lengthen the time these issues are in affect and will also shadow the coming Eclipses.  This New Moon also offers Venus conjunct Neptune; it will be wish-fulfillment time. Transiting  Uranus, still in your first house opposing transiting Saturn, promises more lessons to be learned involving partnerships.   

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!!!

Hi Friends and Colleagues,

I want to thank all of you for reading my work.  I love Astrology and I am grateful that I can do what I love.  This is a very mental, emotional and creative expression and I enjoy its depth and mental gymnastics.  I am grateful for my family and the untold happiness and peace I feel with them. I am grateful for the love of my life for without him, I would be lost. I am supremely grateful for my home, which is cozy and warm and holds all my memories and good feelings.  Since this is Thanksgiving, I think we should all acknowledge what we are grateful for.  We usually do it sitting around the table before we dive into our Feast.  I am going to ask you to acknowledge what you’re grateful for at your table. This has been a difficult year but all years have their ups and downs. We are on the precipice of a New Year and all our hopes are sky high.   If we are grateful, we won’t be worried about tomorrow.  We are all on a personal journey throughout our lives that interweaves with the journeys of others forming a tapestry of life. Communication, kindness, empathy and love are the colors of this work of art. Sensitivity, intuition and understanding form the pattern of the tapestry.    I am so thankful today and I hope you are too.

This New Moon at 5 degrees of Sagittarius has set us on a new path that we may not be aware of for another week or so. If you know Sag like I know Sag, you would say that life was about to get more fun.  Sag brings vitality, curiosity and expansion to this New Moon.  You’ll start to feel more at ease and celebratory. The chart shows a strong trine from Sun, Moon, Mercury and Mars to the South node in Leo.  This indicates an harmonious aspect between the above mentioned planets and the point of the South node.  There seems to be something you came to learn in this life and this New Moon will give you the opportunity.

Saturn is still in orb to the opposition to Uranus but for all intents and purposes, I feel this has reached its high point.  I know it is still a challenge but you have achieved more control over the aspect.

I would like to explain how I interpret my forecasts.  I construct a chart of the New Moon or Full Moon and examine the aspects that are made in the chart.  I take each sign and forecast the aspects thru the prism of that rising sign and constellation.

Since I am not doing your chart personally, I am using your rising sign as our contact point.  I interpret the New Moon or Full Moon thru the prism of your ascendant.  I feel this is less general and may have more meaning for you.  You need to see how your planets influence my aspects.  (Only if you are students is this a possibility.)

Please use your Ascendant to read your forecast. You can also read your Sun sign but the ascendant will read more true.

ARIES-(March 21-April 19)

This New Moon takes place in Sagittarius, your 9^th house of education, philosophy, legal matters and foreign affairs.  Embedded in this New Moon is also a conjunction of Mercury and Mars.  All of these trine the South Node in your 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs.  You will find an easy flow to your life at this time, especially, if it involves the above subjects.  This sets the tone for the next month. There will be lots of activity, light and easy thoughts and a very celebratory mood.  The Saturn Uranus opposition has taken a permanent position in your 6^th and 12^th house.  Jupiter and Venus transiting your 10^th house of career is forming a trine to Saturn in the 6^th house easing work or health issues.

CANCER-(June 21-July 22) 

This New Moon in Sagittarius takes place in your 6^th house of everyday work and health.  The Mars Mercury conjunction indicates discussions on health issues or work or both.  The trine to the South Node in your 2^nd house of personal finances and values insures that suggestions to financial issues are positive and offer different opportunities.  Saturn and Uranus have taken a temporary oppositional position in your 9^th and 3^rd house insuring a constant low stress level in this area of your life.  Basically, this opposition represents changes that you want to make but are not sure of at this time.  Jupiter and Venus are conjunct in your 7^th house of partnerships in trine to Saturn in your 3^rd house of communication and community.  Partnerships are possible now.

Fellow Star Gazers…check this out!

This election will be over soon and we will all be able to breathe a sigh of relief. Whoever gets in will have overwhelming situations to deal with.  The economy is in trouble and, by my calculations, there will changes that start in January of 2010 that will transform our values,  as well as our finances, until October of 2011.

For my astrology students: look at the chart for the U.S. and you will see that Pluto will conjunct Venus during this period.

For each of us there will be a change in our personal financial values. Questions like “Is this worth the time? Or energy?”  The operative word will be ” worth”.  You will be making decisions on worth throughout next year.  Values are changing.

I am starting to get ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas, my favorite holidays.  I always say it’s too much work but I must be programmed to perform Holiday Feasts.  This Thanksgiving will be a first as my daughter has gotten engaged and, hopefully, there will be a new mouth to feed at the table.  My son Anthony, his wife Robin and my granddaughters, Cassandra and Isabella, will be here and I want them to remember these special times when we are all together.  I always make a turkey but, in reality, by the time we get to the turkey, everyone is pretty full.  I still make it because it’s tradition. I was jostling ideas about some traditional Italian dishes I could make before the turkey.  I’ve always had my granddaughters over to help cook special dishes.  This year when I have them over, they will learn another Italian dish for Thanksgiving.  Mmmm-m.    So far, they have helped me make stuffed shells and lasagna.  If you have any ideas…please comment.

This month has some very interesting aspects.  The first thing I want to address is the New Moon in Scorpio.  This Moon is sensitive, intense, secretive and fixed.  It comes in with a mission.  The New Moon Eclipse back on August 1^st, 2008 at 9 degrees of Leo, is in square to this New Moon, bringing many challenges from the last three months to a head.  This will be a turning point in matters associated with the challenges that appeared on that New Moon Eclipse on Aug. 1 ^th,  2008.  What was challenging you at that time? The challenges will in some degree, be resolved this next month.  

RULE: New Moons bring in challenges and Full Moons bring in resolutions.

RULE: Squares bring in change.

RULE: Oppositions bring in endings. 

I am writing with more astrological data so you can see how I came to my conclusions.  The main aspects are: the above New Moon Square the August 1^st, 2008 New Moon Eclipse,  the Fixed T square that is explained in each zodiacal sig, Uranus and Saturn are in the throes of opposing each other and will be part of this months changes. Uranus in Pisces and Saturn in Virgo are both in mutable signs forecasting change from the old to the new. Usually, it is pretty explosive or unexpected.  It is and has been in orb for awhile, so you may be letting go of old, familiar and safe, for the unexpected, unusual and unfamiliar.  The words I hear most at these times are, “It’s not worth it to continue this path!”  You probably realize by now that the opposition is exact on Election Day.   In your personal lives there will be a letting go of something for more freedom. On a national level, it is the Election.  On a personal level, it takes place where Virgo and Pisces are positioned in your chart.  I have tried to make it easier for you to see the connections between the aspects.  I don’t know if I have succeeded.  You will have to let me know. Last, but not least, is Jupiter in Capricorn in Square to Mercury in Libra. 

Mercury went direct on October 15^th, 2008 and by October 31^st it will have passed the position where it went retrograde.  This means that anything that was delayed up to that day will start to manifest after passing the 22^nd degree of Libra.  Mercury will square Jupiter on the New Moon bringing in a lot of communication. I have tried to show you where it will come from.  Please comment on this style of Astrology. 

This forecast should be read by your rising sign. It will be more meaningful for you.   

ARIES-(March 21-April 19)

This New Moon falls in your 8^th house of partnership finances or other people’s money.  The Eclipse in August was in your 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs. These issues have reached a turning point for you.  Mars is forming a fixed square to the North Node and Chiron in the 11^th house of goals and square the South Node in the 5^th house of children, creativity, investments and love affairs.  The empty leg of this T square is Taurus, your 2^nd house, and promises challenges to your personal finances and values.  Scorpio New Moon also indicates strong and deliberate moves. Saturn is in Virgo, in your 6^th house of everyday work and health, and redefining them.  Saturn transiting the 6^th house of everyday work will be unable to contain the stress of freedom that cries from within. The Saturn opposition Uranus has to do with breaking away from the old patterns because you are unable to continue them. Mercury will resume its travel in your 7^th house of partnership and will square Jupiter signaling a communication deluge.

TAURUS-(April 20-May 20)

GEMINI-(May 21-June 20)

This New Moon lands in your 6^th house of everyday work and health.  This is a very stubborn New Moon.  It also forms a square aspect to the New Moon Eclipse from August 1^st, 2008 that took place in your 3^rd house of communication and community. This square will usher in a turning point to the issues that have been a concern for the last three months.  The Fixed T square from Mars in the 6^th to Chiron and the North Node in the 9^th of foreign affairs, philosophy, education and legal matters, also squares the South Node in the 3^rd house of communications.  The empty leg is Taurus, your 12^th house of the past, hidden matters and institutions.  The energy will flow to the 12^th house and manifest as action from there.  Uranus in Pisces in the 10^th house of career is being opposed by Saturn in the 4^th house of home and core issues.  This may be the time for reassessment.  Think of what matters the most and not what bothers you the most.  Mercury makes a square to Jupiter from your 5^th house to your 8^th house of partnership finances. Money seems to be an issue.

LEO-(July 23-August 22)

This New Moon takes place in your 4^th house focusing on home and core issues.  A major implication for this New Moon is that it squares the New Moon Eclipse of August 1, 2008 in your 1^st house of movement and personality.  You will see the issues of that last Eclipse reach a turning point and it will not have the same power over you.  Mars in Scorpio squares Chiron and the North Node in your 7^th house of partnerships and the South Node in Leo, your 1^st house of  personality movement.  These aspects form a T square. The empty leg of that T square falls in your 10^th house of career generating the energy flow in career matters.  Uranus in Pisces in your 8^th house of partnership finances is in opposition to Saturn in Virgo in your 2^nd house of personal finance and values urging you to look out for unexpected expenses.  Mercury in your 3^rd house of communications and community will be square Jupiter in your 6^th house of everyday work and health promoting mega-communications about these matters.

VIRGO-(August 23-September 22)

This New Moon in Scorpio takes place in your 3^rd house of communication and community.  Another consideration is that it is the square to our previous New Moon Eclipse on August 1^st, 2008 in Leo and your 1^st house of personality and promotion.  This square usually brings about a turning point in the challenges of that Eclipse.  The Mars in Scorpio also forms a square to Chiron and the North Node in the 6^th house of everyday work and health and another square to the South Node in your 12^th house of the past and hidden matters.  The empty leg of this T square is the 9^th house of philosophy, higher education, legal matters and foreign affairs.  It gets plenty of energy from these aspects and goes directly to the 9^th house.   Uranus in Pisces is in your 7^th house of partnerships in opposition to Saturn in Virgo in your 1^st house of personality and promotion urging you to be on the lookout for unexpected partnership dealings.  You may be changing your mind when it comes to partnerships.  Mercury in Libra, your 2^nd house of personal finances and love, is square to Jupiter in the 5^th house of children, creativity, love affairs and investments increasing communications along those lines.

LIBRA-(September 23-October 22)

Saturn in the 12^th house of the past and institutions is in opposition to Uranus in the 6^th house of health and everyday work injecting unexpected events to occur in these areas.  Try to keep your composure.  Mercury in your 1^st house of personality and promotion squares Jupiter in the 4^th of home and core issues.

Mercury in your 12^th house of the past and institutions will square Jupiter in the 3^rd house of communication and community.  To say this is an active New Moon is an understatement.
