In Memory of George Floyd~ Saturn Retrogade in Aquarius

In Memory of George Floyd

The Gentle Giant

 May 25th, 2020

“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly.”

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.  

As Saturn,the planet of justice, retrogrades in Aquarius, the sign symbolic of community, brotherhood, and humanity, we as a people will have hard lessons to learn about human rights, dignity, and social justice. Let us come together and stand for a better future- a future that embraces all races, creeds, and ethnicities with equal respect, empathy, and love.

 

The Poetry of Aries & Maya Angelou’s Wisdom~

 

The Poetry of Aries

You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them. Maya Angelou, Sun in Aries

With the Sun now in Aries, the sign of the courage and vitality, despite how constricted your environment may feel, you’ll have an opportunity to take the lead and create your own path forward. The power is in your hands to go your own way and stand tall, for nothing gets an Aries down for too long.

Lunar Eclipse in Cancer

The Royal Family at Odds 

The world is not the most pleasant place. Eventually your parents leave you and nobody is going to go out of their way to protect you unconditionally. You need to learn to stand up for yourself and what you believe and sometimes pardon my language, kick some ass.  

Queen Elizabteth II

 

Funny enough I recall my most recent conversation with my Father ” Did you hear the news?” “What news?”  “Harry wants to leave the Royal Family and the Queen’s feelings are hurt!”

This pretty much sums up the Cancer Lunar Eclipse, which peaked on Friday, 2:21 p.m. EST.

I asked him what his source was and he said he read the message through his I Phone (which sounded a bit strange as he is 77 years old)!  Then about five minutes later I heard a little ring on my phone…and sure enough the news popped up via an Apple New Link.  

How perfectly does this sum up this eclipse! Cancer is the sign of the Royal Family after all, AND is also associated with Apple.  Cancer is the sign of the motherhood, nurturing, a sense of family, and last not but least, emotional sensitivity. Cancer is also ruled by the moon,  which makes this full moon Lunar eclipse doubly Cancerian.  

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, has a Cancer Ascendant at 24 degrees of Cancer, just a few degrees away from the Lunar Eclipse at 20 degrees of Cancer

Lunar eclipses signal endings, and since the moon is Cancer’s ruling planet, this particular eclipse will usher an extra powerful culmination. How this manifests will depend on how it hits your chart. I you are a Cancer or Capricorn, or have have a lot of Cancer or Capricorn in your chart, your inner strength will certainly be tested. 

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, has a Cancer Ascendant at 24 degrees of Cancer, just a few degrees away from the Lunar Eclipse at 20 degrees of Cancer.  Now is her time to shine and show what’s she’s made of, or as the Queen may more appropriate say:

kick some ass

There are also  many other powerful planets opposing the eclipse- creating a whirlwind of cosmic chaos that will echo for months to come.

Just as the Drama of the Royal Family…

Alvin Ailey, A True Capricorn Spirit~

Alvin Ailey 

Born January 5, 1931

Capricorn Sun & Terpsichore, Cancer Moon, Sagittarius Ascendant

The creative process is not controlled by a switch you can simply turn on or off; it’s with you all the time. Alvin Ailey

Alvin Ailey’s horoscope is a wild display of legacy, life long commitment, and courageous leadership. When looking at his photo I can not help be see the resemblance of the goat persona Capricorn is so famous for. His piercing eyes, his chiseled jawline, and perfectly trimmed ‘ goatee’.  He is the quintessential goat not only in image but also soul and spirit, as his chart clearly reveals. 

What’s most striking in his chart is the intimate connection between the Sun and Saturn at 14 degrees of Capricorn. In astrology this tight planetary embrace is known as cazimi or “in the heart of the Sun”. When a planet is “in the heart of the Sun”, its power is amplified and adds a special charisma to the Sun’s rays. 

In Mr. Ailey’s case the connection is even more powerful as Saturn happens to also be the ruler of Capricorn, the zodiac’s most serious sign. Saturn is also known as the ruler of “fate” and points to one’s destiny. It is a planet that rewards hard work with lasting achievement. Now, moving toward yet another decade in the 21st century, the Ailey Spirit continues to shine brightly, as if indeed in the heart of the Sun.

Happy New Year! It’s 2020!!

                      HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Yearly Forecast for 2020

Saturn Meets Pluto in Capricorn

A Cosmic Executive Meeting

Like all dreamers, I mistook disenchantment for truth. Jean- Paul Sarte

 

2020 begins with a powerful and rare meeting between Saturn and Pluto, both now in Capricorn, the zodiac’s most conservative sign. Think of this cosmic occurrence as  a high profile meeting in which both parties will need to come to a final agreement about a momentous executive decision. This decision will create a foundation for the next decade (and maybe even longer). As a result, there is a feeling of heaviness that can not be ignored, only embraced. 

So, if the New Year feels unusually somber, serious, or even dire, you’re likely receiving a crystal clear connection from the planets! It’s likely a situation has been gradually building up for the past several months, directly  heading toward an inevitable climax that will leave a lasting mark on not only on this year but your next life chapter. This is most transparent in the current political landscape in the U.S. and many other places world wide, but what’s important for you to realize is that you too, as an individual are indeed part of the big world scheme currently at play.

You have a specific role to play, and it’s crucial that you abide to this in a way that will empower you. Depending on how well equipped you are, you may even have the rare opportunity for your life to be transformed (for the better of course) and to start anew from an unprecedented place of instinct, resilience, and fortitude, where there will be no turning back.

As the planet of society’s expectations and civic responsibility, Saturn wants you to commit to a particular role, title, or purpose that will have a large scale impact.  No matter where you live, or how you see yourself- Saturn will call on you to realize how important and relevant you are as an individual, which will encourage you to take a higher level of responsibility in  a particular area of your life. 

Pluto, on the other hand, loves to tear things down and get to the very core of the matter. This bodes well if you have a long standing pattern that has not been serving you. Pluto will pull at your inner critic, your ‘lesser self’, and the shards of your ego that lead you in circles without understanding why, particularly with power plays that involve sex, money, and control. 

Once the cosmos brings Saturn and Pluto together, the air can weigh so heavy that you may find it hard to breathe. But breathe you must, as you are human, and however fragile you may feel, these planets will bring you face to face with  strength you didn’t know you had.

It’s Sagittarius Season!

The Sun Dances in Sagittarius~

Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul – and sings the tunes without the words – and never stops at all. Emily Dickenson, Sagittarius 

With the Sun now in Sagittarius, the zodiac’s most optimistic sign, have trust in the power of your faith, and you’ll see positive changes, especially in regards to a legal settlement, citizenship matter or ethical concern.  Doing what you know in your heart to be right, just, and true-this is what the fiery energy of Sagittarius is all about. Go all out, and go big, as Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, the largest planet of the solar system.  If you can imagine yourself in a higher, grander place, whether it involves your career, creativity, or social circle, take the first step- and soon enough serendipity will likely inspire you to take a big leap. Who knows- you may even up dancing on your toes!

Full Moon in Aries

Rivalry is a good thing for mortals. Hesoid Hestodus

The Full Moon in Aries will surely bring a peak emotional experience, as Aries is the zodiac’s most passionate sign. The coming weeks will give you a great opportunity to take initiative and show courage. If your inner voice (reflective of the moon’s energy) is telling you to take a stand and/or fight for your rights, follow your instincts, and your confidence will skyrocket.

Luckiest Day of The Year!

Sun in Leo trine Jupiter in Sagittarius

 

I think of myself as a highly sexual creature. Charleze Theron- Leo

That’s right. Today, August 7, is the luckiest day of the year. This most auspicious day occurs once every year and what’s special about this year is that both planets are in their most dignified signs. The Sun’s power is unmistakably glorious in Leo while Jupiter is at home in Sagittarius, the zodiac’s most optimistic sign. Fire signs will especially benefit from this rare alignment, and if your birthday happens to be today, on August 7  (plus or minus 3 days) you’ll likely hit the jackpot! So make sure your birthday wish is extra special!
