-+*While you lay there bleeding under the Full Moon (which was fused with stern Saturn, in case you are wondering why you felt like crap), messenger Mercury snuck into bold generous fire sign Leo, where it will retrograde on July 25th. Yes, my friends, ANOTHER summer retrograde. Oy Mercury! In […]

-+*Ohhhhh this week this week this week this week feels dark and harsh to me. I had a cold. I had to reschedule people. Getting back to work BUT THIS SKY. Today we had a Sun Saturn opposition (harsh) and the Full Moon (tonight/tomorrow) is also harsh. WHY? Again, because […]
-+*Action precedes motivation. I learned this phrase decades ago from a friend who was in a Depressed Anonymous group. I said it to someone today. During Mars retrograde you may feel stuck, stymied, in prison. You may feel low ambition, low confidence, low self esteem. Anxiety. Existential dread. You can’t […]
-+*Really really tired, friends, but I want to get a quick blog post out before I go home and take a nap. Seriously. Before preparing for clients and the rest of my to-do list. IT’S AN IMPORTANT WEEK. Neptune goes retrograde today while the Moon is in Virgo. THIS WILL […]
-+*To write about the obsessions might be helpful. This is what I have for you on this New Moon in Gemini. Gemini has to do with writing and writers and editing and editors and today the Gemini Moon is aspecting Pluto (ruling death, ruling obsession, ruling kidnapping) so you may […]
-+*A quick one about this week. More to come. Mercury enters Cancer this week. Venus enters Leo this week. BOTH will aspect Uranus AND Chiron. Hard and soft aspects. The one I want to address first and in this blog post is the Venus Uranus square. You know the drill. […]
-+*Read me HERE, my meditation on death, my mother, and Santa Muerte I’ve been writing a lot about Chiron lately and here’s one more although I have something else on my mind too – this South Node-Mars conjunction in Aquarius which I admit I had not even noticed until someone […]
-+*I’m having feelings today. Remember I warned you about this weekend. To not look for happiness but instead gnaw on the bone of dissatisfaction. My warning was all about the moon (feelings). Where did I put my book I don’t know, my book which has the details. Probably in my […]
-+*Yeah you know it. Astrology writing is boring if it isn’t deep enough. Here I can tell you WATCH YOUR BACK like I did yesterday or the day before about this sky and tomorrow’s sky and it’s still true but not what I want to tell you today. Instead I […]
-+*Someone I’ve known for a while gave me high praise the other day. She was happy to read my WET blog post, posting on Facebook that it felt like “classic Aliza.” This made me so happy that I have folks who’ve been reading me for so long, my witnesses. I […]
-+*So we had the book launch and party and it was kind of an out of body experience. I’m used to having a book out. Or the idea that a book is coming out. It came in stages of course. First was getting the book contract itself. And the writing […]
-+*I’m sitting here having breakfast, a delicious greasy sandwich and wondering why things feel so dark when the sky isn’t so dark this week. Of course your transits are your transits and those will trump any general activity but I see all these sextiles and trines! I look in my […]
-+*The weekend is NOT simple We have a VENUS SATURN OPPOSITION on the weekend which can make you feel weak and unloved, unloveable but the week? I LIKE IT. Most of Monday is a void of course Moon so think of this day as NO PRESSURE. Just ease yourself along.. […]
-+*To join my JUNE ASTROLOGY CLASS look here! The new NEWSLETTER is here. Subscribe at this link! There is So. Much. Big. News. I feel like I’m going to be saying the same things over and over again for a while. URANUS ENTERS TAURUS next week. May 15th. NEW MOON […]
-+*Folks are getting the books they pre-ordered! Look here. It comes out June 1st officially but I’ve heard that books are coming Monday! The relief I feel that Mercury enters Taurus this weekend. Mercury went retrograde while in Aries and I found this one particularly difficult (although I also do […]
-+*Full Moon as I type here and I will tell you what I’ve told others. This Full Moon is Not So Bad. Unlike other recent Full Moons. This one is SATURN SUPPORTED. Saturn trine Sun. Saturn sextile Moon. You don’t feel crazy. No matter what’s befallen you. NOT CRAZY. As for […]
-+*You may say: but Aliza, Venus is in Gemini now! Isn’t that fun and flirty and witty? Clever! They’re smart, right? YES Venus in Gemini is all that stuff and more BUT Venus in Gemini will scatter its love energies hither and yon like birdseed on the lawn. Who are […]
-+*I sent out a newsletter this morning with a few thoughts about JUPITER GOING RETROGRADE. Click here! You can also subscribe at this link! But you know what? I want to talk about integrity. Even though I plan to talk about Jupiter retro and the week ahead, I want to […]
-+*I got the most extraordinary Christmas card this morning – a client thanking me for my help in 2017. She suffered a loss. I spoke to her before the loss. I spoke to her after the loss. And now it’s Christmas and she sent me this email which reminded me, […]
-+*I started telling this story without any details but I think I need to share some of the details. Some of the details. Details about DOMS (google it) and about how the body must adjust when exposed to something new and intense. That’s what happened to me. I was lifting […]
-+*Let’s be honest. People like Mars in Scorpio because Mars in Scorpio is sexy. But that can’t be the beginning and the end of the blog post. What else do we need to know about Mars in Scorpio today? I have a few things I want to share… Scorpio is […]
-+*Hmm. Looking at the landscape for this weekend. A few details. Mars enters Scorpio on Saturday (which needs its own blog post). Moon will be in fret and putter Virgo. Sunday is fascinating to me. Mercury (retrograde) in Sagittarius and Venus in Sagittarius are busy (of course). Your mind and […]
-+*To answer this question, we can turn our minds to JUPITER, who, in our lives, likes to make things grow. Lately I feel like I’m resisting expansion so I wanted to bring this question to you. ON THE OTHER HAND maybe it’s just not time. Doesn’t timing matter? And on […]
-+*You have to find something that forces you to focus. And you need a little bit of good advice. Just a little. I prefer you *not* choose sex — as your focus — unless you have someone you really like having sex with and there is a commitment there – healthy […]
