Astrology by Mary MacLean

  This Full Moon is at 10 degrees of Taurus and is part of a Grand Fixed Cross.  This happens when there are four planets in fixed signs in square to each other.  If you look at the chart for the Full Moon, you will see that Jupiter, Chiron and Neptune square the Full Moon at 10 degrees of Taurus.  Mars in Leo is in square to the Sun and Mercury in Scorpio.  The Elements in Astrology are Fire, Earth, Air, and Water.  Each Element governs three constellations.

Fire                        Earth                    Air                             Water 

Action                  Practical                Intellectual               Emotional

Aries                     Taurus               Gemini                     Cancer

Leo                       Virgo                  Libra                        Scorpio

Sagittarius             Capricorn           Aquarius                   Pisces

The Elements are 120 degrees apart forming a classic Trine aspect. Each of these Elements (Fire, Earth, Air and Water) contains another important sub-division. This is where the constellations are divided into the modalities of Cardinal, Fixed and Mutable.

 Cardinal signs have beginning energy. They are the initiators of Astrology

 Fixed signs have the ability to withstand tremendous amounts of pressure and continue to endure.

Mutable signs contain the desire and ability for change.  

If they are in a 90 degree relationship with each other they form a square.

 For instance;

       (90 degrees)           (90 degrees)      (90 degrees)

  Fire                     Earth                       Air                      Water          Modality

Aries                 Capricorn                  Libra               Cancer               Cardinal

Leo                    Taurus                     Aquarius         Scorpio               Fixed 

Sagittarius           Virgo                      Gemini           Cancer                Mutable

Back to this Full Moon in Taurus…this setup speaks of pressure and where-ever the FM takes place will be the area where this pressure is felt.    This is also the area that will incur changes.  Venus with her bright shining light radiates her social intensity in a grand trine to transiting Neptune, Chiron and Jupiter.  Situations of a more immediate nature are more socially oriented than usual.  You are on a precipice and you know it.  Which way to go?  How will it turn out? These are looming questions for you at this point.  Transiting Saturn is squaring Transiting Pluto and, this alone, will relieve some stress by the end of the month.

The anxieties that you feel now are because of the transitions you are about to face in the next 6 months.  Saturn is leaving Virgo and is now in Libra.  It will return to Virgo to complete some unfinished business but not until April of 2010.  You are preparing for that last transit of Saturn in Virgo to complete this cycle.  Mars in Leo is actually more important on a daily basis because it is laying the foundation for what is to come in April.   This is the true ending of Saturn in Virgo and of the promise of completion of some long held goals. 

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 2^nd house of values and personal finances.  This is the mainstay of pressure for you.  You may be looking at your personal finances and trying to maintain a modicum of sanity as finances or relationships are dark clouds that loom in the future. Your ingenuity and resourcefulness are being stretched to the maximum.   This is the reason for the pressure.   In order to grow you must reach beyond our normal limitations to grow.  Partnership issues are easy and can be romantic.  Mars is transiting your 5^th house of creativity and redefining this area to prepare you for the Saturn in Libra transit.

TAURUS-(April 20-May 20)

This Full Moon takes place in your 1^st house of personality and how others see you.  The physical you has had some changes and continues to change as time goes on.  You are projecting new personality traits that may shock you or the people close to you.  Since all of this is taking place in your angular houses of 1^st, 4^th, 7^th and 10^th ,your everyday life is intensely affected.  Venus in your 6^th house of everyday work is claiming a victory in achieving a long held goal.  Mars in Leo in your 4^th house of home and core issues is taking on the role of headmaster and taking full control.  

GEMINI-(May 21-June 20)

This Full Moon takes place in your 12^th house of behind-the-scenes activity, the past and the subconscious.  Changes in your thinking or situations from the past seem to be the pressure that is permeating your consciousness. This can have to do with the anticipation of future changes due to some unforeseen circumstances.  Mars in Leo in your 3^rd house of communication and community is taking charge and redefining this area of your life.  Saturn entering your 5^th house tells me that your creative mind and issues that deal with children are the objects of your future concern.   Preparing for these challenges is the basis for your anxiety.  Venus in her social way has provided you with delightful thoughts and visions of the possibilities to come.   Saturn will be squaring Pluto this month and some pressures will be lifted.

CANCER-(June 21-July 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 11^th house of hopes, wishes and goals.  Some issues have been solved for you but this is by no means the end of it.  It may be that you are pressured into changing some of your goals or wishes temporarily in order to overcome some pending obstacles.  Personal finances and the values that you hold so dear are demanding your full and undivided attention. Saturn entering Libra will be in a cardinal square to your ascendant and many core observations and changes will be marked for redefinition in these next 2 ½ years.  Transiting Saturn is also in a square to transiting Pluto forcing you to make the necessary changes in your life that will ensure the future.  Transiting Venus in the 4^th house makes a generous trine to transiting Neptune, Chiron and Jupiter bringing some delightful news about finances coming your way.   

LEO-(July 23-August 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 10^th house of career and standing in the community.  The changes in this sector are always of major concern because career is an integral part of who you are.  Changes in this area alter the way society sees you.  If you add some new skill to your list of accomplishments or if you discontinue a skill for some reason your career persona will be measured by that action.    This FM has brought you some uncompromising positions that affect almost every area of your life.  Mars transiting your 1^st house of personality has put you out in the open doing self promotion.   This is very necessary for your future endeavors.  Transiting Saturn squaring transiting Pluto adds pressure to the current situation by pushing you to accomplish certain goals that will affect you on a daily basis.  All is not bad as transiting Venus in your 3^rd house of communications and community trine transiting Neptune, Chiron and Jupiter in your 7^th house of partnerships.  This can be seen as a major celebration or a major event.    

VIRGO-(August 23-September 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 9^th house of philosophy, legal matters, foreign affairs and higher education.  There are changes taking place in this house that have been putting a lot of mental pressure on you.   Some emotional issues have been slowly inching into your conscious mind.  This is not something that you can deactivate as it is sparked by your own emotional past.  These issues have a way of surfacing and engaging you in your day to day life.  Awareness is your only colleague in this quest.   Transiting Saturn is in square to transiting Pluto pushing for changes in your everyday life.  Mars in your 12^th house of behind-the-scenes activities, the past, preparation and institutions will be redefining this area for you in the next 6 months.   Transiting Venus in your 2^nd house of personal finances delights you with its trine to transiting Neptune, Chiron and Jupiter in your 6^th house of everyday work and health insuring some personal financial goals.

LIBRA-(September 23-October 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 8^th house of partnership finances, sex, death and taxes.  Other people’s money, such as, mortgages, insurance and partnership resources, will sustain some changes during this Full Moon. The stress you have been under has to do with your personal finances, your creative ability to make things happen and your financial reality.   Money that you receive from others or partnership funds is about to change.   Transiting Saturn is squaring transiting Pluto from the 1^st house to the 4^th house, creating a tremendous pressure for you to make personal changes that will impact your home or core issues within the next month.  There does seem to be a tinkle of liberation and romantic involvement as Venus, your ascendant ruler, is trining Neptune, Chiron and Jupiter in the 5^th house of love affairs.  Mars in your 11^th house is in the process of redefining your goals hopes and wishes for the next 6 months. 
 SCORPIO-(October 24-November 22)

This Full Moon takes place in your 7^th house of partnerships. (Business or Personal) This is an interesting placement for the Full Moon as it intensifies in an angular house.  You may be involved in modifying or ending some association that has been a thorn in your side.  This is the Fixed Cross on your chart angles that makes things just a little more anxious.  Mars is transiting your 10^th house of career and redefining this area in the next 6 months.  Career is up in the air and for you this is not a comfortable reality.  Transiting Saturn in the 12^th house is squaring transiting Pluto in the 3^rd house revealing that some issues from the past need resolution thru communication and community on a conscious basis.  Venus performs her magic in the 12^th house of the past and triple trines Neptune, Chiron and Jupiter in the 4^th house of home allowing you a secluded time for social  and romantic interactions.

 SAGITTARIUS-(November 22-December 21)

This Full Moon takes place in your 6^th house of everyday work and/or health matters.  There may be some issues that have held your constant attention when it comes to your everyday work.  Changes here can seem to have an impact on your daily work.  This can also be a period of nondescript activity that leaves you constantly waiting for the other shoe to drop.  Mars is transiting your 9^th house of philosophy, legal matters, foreign affairs and higher education in order to redefine your higher aspirations. This will take the next 6 months.  Transiting Saturn in your 11^th house of goals is forming a square to transiting Pluto in your 2^nd house of personal finances intensifying your goals for personal finances during this next month.  Venus in all her beauty is trining Jupiter, Chiron and Neptune in your 3^rd house of communication and community.   Celebrations abound.    

CAPRICORN-(December 22-January 19)

This Full Moon takes place in your 5^th house of children, creativity and love affairs.  The changes in this house can be varied, however, they hold an important place in your life.  If you are dealing with creativity, this is a perfect time to reinvent yourself.  Mars in your 8^th house of partnership finances, sex, death and taxes will be performing major redefining of this house.  This means you will be looking for  new ways to make money.  Transiting Saturn is forming a square to transiting Pluto from your 10^th house of career to your 1^st house of personality making your day-to-day life an exercise in stamina.  Venus in your 10^th house seems to be showering you with abundance when it comes to money.

AQUARIUS-(January 20-February 19)

This Full Moon takes place in your 4^th house of home and core issues.  Again, we see that this fixed cross is involved with the angles of your chart intensifying the pressure.  Changes seem to come from the home and, of course, your inner core.  These changes may not be easy for you as your chart has fixed signs on all the angles.  Mars is transiting your 7^th house of partnerships asking you to redefine your partnerships enabling you to move forward in your everyday life.  Pluto in your 12^th house will ask you to delve deep into the past and transform any negative belief system to something that will serve you better at this time in your life.  Transiting Saturn is forming a square to this Pluto from the 9^th house of philosophy, legal matters, foreign affairs and higher education stretching your ability to become more aware on a daily basis.   Venus in her quest for beauty makes a glorious trine to Jupiter, Neptune and Chiron in your 1^st house of personality enabling you to look and be received as God’s gift to humanity. 

PISCES-(February 20-March 20)

This Full Moon takes place in your 3rd house of communications and community. Changes in this house seem to be part of pressures that have been plaguing you in recent times.  This is difficult because they have been a part of your everyday existence and they can deal with family dilemmas.    Mars has just entered into your 6^th house of everyday work and health issues.  This area of your life will be redefined in the next 6 months.  This is necessary in order to make the transition from Saturn in Virgo to Saturn in Libra.  Transiting Saturn is in a square to transiting Pluto in your 11^th house of goals pushing you to achieve new goals within the next month.  Venus enhances your associations with people from the past and delivers an abundance of enjoyment.

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.
