*+-Some thoughts on this weekend’s astrology: Two big events. Chiron goes retrograde. Mercury goes direct. They are related because they are both happening in such a short span of time. One in Aries, the other in Cancer, two signs (astrologers tell us) that are at odds with each other. Aries […]

*+-In astrology, the sign of Cancer is associated with home (among other things). Mercury enters Cancer today. Mars is already in Cancer. The Moon will be in Cancer for a couple days this week, and about a month from now we will experience the first of the summer eclipses, this […]
*+-From the new newsletter. The link is here. We Pluto People feel things intensely and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Except for the times I wish it were ANY OTHER WAY. And this weekend you will feel and feel and feel and FEEL. Sun’s in Cancer. Mercury’s in […]
*+-I haven’t forgotten you sweet Mercury in Cancer! Mars goes direct that same day – this Wednesday. Mercury will enter the sweet crabby mama-bear-crab sign. She is loyal, protective, hates to hurt people’s feelings (works to prevent it even at her detriment thus she will hold her tongue even when […]
*+-Let’s talk about Cancer Season. I have my Sun, Mercury, and Mars there. And that stellium squares my Jupiter. That’s a lot of moon. Jupiter EXPANDS what it touches. I’m far from unbiased. I have a blind spot. Unlikely I can see Cancer Season clearly and what we need to […]
*+-I tend to get mad at the same things over and over and then am left wondering: is this something that needs to be figured out anew? Does it signify a problem? Or is it just the monkey mind going round and round again. Sometimes an issue is SOLVED, really […]
*+-Forget for a moment that it’s almost Sun in Cancer time. Forget for a moment that Mercury and Venus are already in the sign, trining Saturn in Scorpio and Neptune in Pisces. Think for a moment of just Saturn trine Neptune. What is this energy about? Two slow moving planets (Neptune […]
*+-What I have noticed *so far* about the lovely Grand Trine in Water we are wading in: people are more relaxed despite the Moon being in Aries 🙂 Mercury in Cancer is trining Saturn in Scorpio and Neptune in Pisces. Venus just entered Cancer so is in orb already. On […]
*+-A friend of mine is moving today and surprised himself by suddenly feeling… his feelings 🙂 Of course I thought to myself, feeling all suddenly sage. Mercury (short trips) has entered summery sensitive Cancer and moving is a HUGE deal. Cancer is associated with all things home, family, mother, and […]
*+-I was Facebooking/Tweeting some Cancer tweets because we are nearing Cancer Season. Mercury and Venus enter the sign of the MOTHER this weekend! (!) and I asked this question: Does your Sun Sign feel good to you? I like how being a Cancer feels. Regenerative and warm. Now “regenerative” may […]
*+-Usually I look at the Stars first and then pull a Tarot card or two. Today I am going to pull the card first! Fun! Shuffling shuffling shuffling…… From the Osho Tarot: EXISTENCE Do you feel at home? Where do you feel at home? Everywhere? Somewhere? Nowhere? Is this world […]
*+-Take your time now, relax now, vacay now because everything’s gonna change up, speed up next week. Over the weekend, Venus is sextile Uranus — new developments in love and money or at least things go smoothly in an interesting (unexpected) way. On Monday the Sun enters multi-tasky Gemini and the […]
*+-Dear Neptune People, Is happiness possible for you when you’re not longing for something or someone? I ask myself this question tonight because I do not find myself emotionally unhappy at this time. Nothing hurts. Self? Remember this moment. Because you will forget this moment. So remember this moment. When […]
*+-Oh I just LOVE that people are taking my advice to heart to write. I’ve got one, two, three (more?) people in the comments mentioning this. Awesome! Jupiter is in Gemini! Big (Jupiter) Writing (Gemini)! Big words and big thoughts. Big mouths 🙂 I like it 🙂 Today’s Sky: Sun, Moon, […]
*+-I have a BIG decision to make and I don’t know how to make it. I do think today’s sudden hot weather is messing with my mind but it’s not just that. It is a BIG decision. How do *you* make big decisions? The kind that change your life forever? […]
*+-Finally it’s summer in the Big City. The Mayor is telling people to go to “cooling centers” as it nears 100 degrees. I’m one of the lucky ones. I have an air conditioner. Not uncommon, I know, but I still feel lucky. It was a gift from my ex-boyfriend (before […]
*+-I read this poem this morning and it made me think of the current sky, the Uranus Pluto square and the upcoming New Moon in Gemini. The poem is by Juan Ramon Jimenez (Dec 23, 1881 – May 29, 1958) and the translation by Robert Bly and the poet uses […]
*+-Good Morning from the Big City! Or whatever time it is where you are 🙂 Up early today and it’s cloudy out, the birds are chirping, the tree branches are swaying just a little, the quadruple Taurus isn’t awake yet (of course!) and won’t be for hours now. The cats […]
*+-The kind of passion I always wanted was the kind where you choose each other (rather than someone liking you and you just kinda give in and go along with it — yes I’ve been there) and also you’re somehow magically compatible. I’ve been there too. I don’t know if […]
*+-Now hmm what kind of conversations have *you* been having today? What kinds of thoughts? Mercury (how you think, how you say it) in vulnerable hard-shelled Cancer is opposing secret-exposing Pluto and squaring don’t-tell-me-what-to-do Uranus. I’ve been MORE talkative, more social the last couple days which makes sense for a […]
*+-If you’re in a relationship that isn’t really working (or even if you are in a relationship that IS working), there’s a story you tell yourself. There’s a story the other person tells too. The stories are probably different. It’s a stark feeling to notice this and Venus is in […]
*+-I’m obsessed with clarity. Needing to be understood. Wanting to understand. That’s one way my Moon Pluto conjunction in Virgo manifests. Moon Pluto obsesses and Virgo idealizes (!) clarity. And how with a little distance we can get some. I was writing yesterday and lately that clarity is hard to […]
“Give the Universe a chance to find the solution to your so-called problem.” – Louise Hay *** A friend just wrote me, happy that I reminded her about Mercury in Cancer. Said she’s been on the verge of tears since yesterday. I know that feeling. It’s like… almost sneezing. I like […]
*+-As I type this, the Sun and Moon are happy. It’s a trine. Sun in Gemini, Moon in Aquarius. Trines are the “easy” aspect. And in air? A sweet breeze. Sun squares Mars in Virgo though. Venus in Gemini, retrograde, squares Mars too but is backing away. Still, I count […]
