Astrology by Mary MacLean

I would be interested to know how all of you did during this last Full Moon.  This is an exciting and also exasperating time for me as I have had to deal with a broken sewer pipe, asbestos found in the basement and my daughter moving back home.  All of this is happening at the same time.   I have found that Pluto opposite the natal moon can totally absorb your time attention and leave you with the particular feeling of having no control.  If you subscribe to my New Moon and Full Moon, you will notice that they were earlier than the normal 5 days.  Mainly because my time is taken up with waiting for workmen, waiting for phone calls from workmen and insurance people. I have no idea when I can find time to work with all of this going on in my home.  So bare with me folks as my personal forecasts may be a bit earlier as I surrender to the forces in charge.

This New Moon takes place at 23 degrees of Taurus and is in trine to transiting Saturn.  This forms an earth trine that gives us the feeling of stability, and perceived control. Saturn and Uranus are still in opposition keeping a sharp edge on certain situations.    Saturn aspects are sure to be delayed for at least 2 weeks before they materialize.

 This month Mercury goes direct on the 11^th, Saturn goes direct on the 30^th, and Mars goes beyond the point where it went retrograde at 19 degrees on the 16^th   of May.  It feels like we are all riding into the home stretch of a two year race.  All of these direct motions coming this month can only emphasize we are getting closer to a finalization of Saturn in Virgo.  This has been a major cycle and connects with our challenges for the last 2 years. This is the cycle you most relate to and at this time you are in the last couple of months of Saturn in Virgo.  Think back about 2 ½ years and what was your challenge at that time.  This last 6 months should have brought your past goals of 2 ½ years ago to fruition. Check out the house that holds Libra as this is the next area of redefinition on your astrological map.

There are other cycles to look at and Pluto is the next one you will be subject too.  Pluto is retrograde and going over the 5^th, 4^th, 3^rd and 2^nd degree of early Capricorn.  If you have any planets at these positions, you will feel it when Pluto is conjunct the exact degree.  I have the moon at 4 degrees Cancer. 

The Uranus cycle is also hot right now and continues to be for a while.  This month on the 28^th Uranus will enter Aries…This does remind me of a firecracker with added energy.  This is a big change for Uranus from a mutable water sign like Pisces to the assertive cardinal sign of the uncontainable energy of Aries.  Get the picture.

Following close behind is the planet Jupiter, the planet of expansion and again changing signs for the Mutable water to assertive sign of Aries.  The best part is that they meet on June 6^th, 2010.  I guess the question is what to expect?  Keep your sun glasses handy.

There are new challenges seeping in as we conclude this last Saturn in Virgo cycle.  They will show up full force on the New Moon Eclipse of July 11^th, 2010.

I am still offering my New Moon and Full Moon Natal chart forecasts on a subscription basis.  I do hope you are enjoying them and that they are informative and helpful.  I am leaving the comment section open in case you would like to comment on them.

 I hope you will be delighted with the spectacular shifts on this site, spearheaded by this New Moon!  It brings fourth many issues I want to discuss with all of you. 

As you know, I will not be doing the bi-monthly forecast for the web site.  It was a major commitment with no financial gratification. 

 I enjoyed doing it but recently I have been doing something different.  I have been writing a New Moon and Full Moon forecast for some of my clients using  their individual natal charts.  This has been very rewarding for them and for me. 

 I would like to make this service available to you.  I will write the New Moon forecast for your personal natal chart with the addition of how your planets intercede in this process.  I will also include anything vital that happens to affect you by transit.  In essence I will be doing a short personal reading for you bi-monthly. 

 The fee for this is $30. 00 a month.  If you want a three month involvement, it will be $25.00 a month. A six month involvement would be $20.00 a month.  You can find these options on my pay pal page. This is a one-time only introductory price.

 I cannot do more than 20 people, as my time and space are limited.   I have already gotten several subscriptions just in the Denver area. I am sorry I have to limit this to 20 people at this time.

 Remember, I will be sending you personal information from your natal chart not random ideas that would fit millions. 

 If you need or require more detail from any NM or FM, I will be available for $ 2.00 a minute either by phone or skype. 

 I am delighted to support you in all your goals and objectives with my knowledge of Astrology.   You will receive an email twice a month with my personal interpretation of the New Moon or Full Moon influence in your chart.  It will also include any transits that I feel will impact you during this time.  It will be like having me in your back pocket. 

I love being able to offer you this kind of personal support with Astrology!

Now let’s focus on this New Moon.  This New Moon is at 26 degrees of Aquarius.  It is conjunct the Sun, Chiron, and Neptune.  There are a lot of cycles merging at this time, and as I say that, this cycle seems to be the most influential.  This NM sends you in a new direction but not without fear. (Neptune) In what house does this land for you?  This will tell you where this new beginning will take place.   The challenge that comes with this New Moon is one of not knowing the outcome but trusting that whatever happens can only be better than the past.  Aquarius is an intellectual air sign and its major appeal is inspiration.  You will be inspired by the thoughts and application of this New Moon.  There is still a Pluto square to Saturn but you are surely coming thru the worst of it.  The magic word for Pluto Saturn aspects is surrender.

 Mars in Leo at 4 degrees is making a quincunx aspect to Pluto and a similar quincunx aspect to the Venus Jupiter conjunction in Pisces.  They call this The Finger of God aspect.  Two quincunxes and an opposition are the makings of The Finger of God aspect.  The opposition is Mars opposing Mercury.   What does this aspect mean? This aspect gives energy and originality in solving difficult situations.  The Finger of God aspect points to Mars in Leo.  Leo is the house that will experience an influx of energy and originality.  Mars also makes a sextile to Saturn supplying you with some structural opportunities.  On the 16^th and 17^th of February there will be a wonderful Venus conjunct Jupiter.  Depending on where it is located in your chart will bring concentrated good news.  This New Moon is decisional as it is leading to March 10^th when Mars will go direct and certain situations will become solidified.  Mars will be a 0 degrees for 3 weeks which will slow things down considerably.
