Venus enters Libra

28 October
9:04am EDT

Venus now finishes her visit with The Virgin, where she has been offering up pleasantries here in Virgo since 03 October. As she moves forward into Libra, she is more than right at home where The Scales balance it all out in your Zodiac Pie. Until 21 November, it’s time to enjoy the harmony that ideally should display itself within this area of the life.

Remember all the new beginnings that formed from the last New Moon in Libra 15 October?  You’ll find there will be even more beneficial ways to weigh the pros and cons of situations being freshly planted. With all the intensities arising from other areas of the Zodiac, look to Libra for your serenity and peace of mind. What is truly meant to be given that GREAT TRUE ATTITUDE of GRATITUDE for the genuine value already here?  See what kinds of reflective energies come through 09 November as Venus trines Retrograding Jupiter in Gemini at 14 degrees- who seeks to provide some channels of review and redo between these two areas of the life. Be ready for permanent changes to unfold.

Changes will be ongoing for this entire pass as Mercury Retrograde will be taking up in backwards motion 06 November, but this will be no time to remain in indecisive energies from The Scales perspective. By 15 November, just past our next New Moon and Solar Eclipse in Scorpio, our Idealist will have reached the 22 degree Libra New Moon 2012 mark, ultimately shedding some layers of light into what initiations have been springing up here. As always, make sure you do not legally sign or decide upon situations of true importance for long term success until after Mercury has gone Direct 26 November. (more to come on all those MRx details in our next entry.)

As Scorpio continues to deeply transform us all, this pass of Venus in Libra still allows the collective’s affections to easily engage in sociable, charming, and dignified energies- encouraging peaceful outcomes. As we must surrender to the transformative and healing power of truth that this year’s pass of Scorpio is bringing into our awareness so dynamically; Venus now asks us all to remind ourselves to see the incredible value that results from seeking to understand, then be understood.

FULL Moon in Taurus, 29 October

Regenerative Reflection

It’s that time of the year to welcome a release of energy where The Bull takes a stance in your life! The opportunity to uproot what is no longer necessary in your Taurus piece of the Zodiac Pie is ready to be part of your Autumn clean-up so transformation can continue to be hard at work over where The Eagle soars. Just where in your life will this determined and persistent instinct wane throughout 13 November? 

Moon enters Taurus
Monday 29 October, 2:15am EDT to Wednesday 31 October, 2:40pm EDT
Opportunity is knocking at the collective’s door at this time of the month when our emotions enter reflection mode. When our Full Moon embarks in the practical and patient energies of Taurus -the sign that consciously aims for security- we are now ready to allow an enduring and regenerative spirit to guide our “digging up” of what is best to clear where the Bull fixes things within our lives. Fixed Earth is Taurus’s elemental influence, so look to this passage to allow feelings to uproot, and change the grounding feeling that may no longer be working optimally.

Full Moon, 29 October, 3:49pm EDT, 06 degrees Taurus
This offering from Taurus brings forth deep, intuitive, and sensuous feelings as our Lunar Light graces her luminosity with The Bull. Emotions under Taurus must beware of dogged, materialistic, lethargic, and obstinate behaviors that may arise. When any possessive energies are around, it is easy to gravitate to unimaginative and reactionary tendencies. While a strong sense of values and patience mark any journey with The Bull; the cultivation of enterprise, adaptability, and vision are always wise to adhere to.

For the Collective
This Full Moon offers us release at the 06 degree of Taurus, which makes for some wonderfully harmonious energy that brings forth an intense compassionate power to aide perception into what is leaving within our lives.  Remember co-operative and sympathetic acts require that Taurus PATIENCE -where I TAP IN AN ANCIENT PEACE PACE- which comes in super handy as our feelings are processed here. If you see from a more feminine perspective in view of this slice of life, you’ll find, there is love right there waiting to help you as well.

Furthering upon the peaceful ways release is possible with this lunation, is the flowing trine from Neptune in Pisces to our Sun and Saturn in Scorpio, as The Mystic planet also makes an easeful sextile to our Lunar Lady, all between intuitive water and grounding earthen energies. Add in Pluto in Capricorn’s sextile as well to our Sun and equal trine to the Moon: our outer planets are trying to communicate how much clearing thinking and discrimination is necessary so we can move forward in a visionary idealism. It’s time to take social issues very seriously, and feel our individual responsibility to them. Restrictions are no longer able to be tolerated between where The Eagle soars and The Fishes swim within the life- so make sure to make an effort to balance out here.

Lunar-O-Scope, Full Moon in Taurus, 29 October 2012
For the collective horoscope, again we offer some simple advice for every sign from the outer vantage point. Remember if you know your Rising Sign (Ascendant), read that passage too, for it typically will apply to your personal charts’ advice. However, it is the awareness and mathematical analysis of the individual birth chart that will point to the accuracy of how the current planetary landscape affects you.

For the true astrology buffs, be sure to check the Taurus House, in particular where the 06-degree Taurus spot in your natal birth chart lives. (A natal birth chart is determined from the time of birth, which allows a more in-depth look to equally see where some pondering is ideally meant to unfold in how the planets uniquely affect you.) Whether the collective or individual vantage point, these are the areas of life that call for you to bring forth release and cleansing within the next two weeks to follow. Properly embracing the reflection and completion in these areas until the next New Moon and Solar Eclipse upon 13 November will make the space in life for new later.

Aries: You’ll be in the mood to direct yourself to a change within your sense of values as you take stock of your personal possessions with what “ I Have.” How you earn your dollars may change. A worn-out sense of security is ready to say adios, so feel free to make positive choices here now- tossing out the unnecessary material in the home is ideal- shop now for bargains. Be responsible to your core and let your inner process retreat to the unknown like never before.

Taurus: It’s your month steady Bull to release an old worn out mask you wear showing who “I Am.” Tired and weary approaches wish for you to un-earthen your roots to them. We know you like slower changes, yet don’t resist this Universal blessing wishing to quickly find you! Avoid surgery over this lunation, take time to focus upon you and re-activate the self. Your partnerships say work harder and see how much your hopes, dreams and wishes really do come true.

Gemini: The logic now for both sides of you is to unite the energies within those unseen places and deeper ideas in your life where “I Process.” The spiritual, subconscious realms, and the psychological make-ups of life call to quiet your chatty self, and relinquish what is necessary from the past. Pay extra close attention to your nighttime dreams, they relate clues to your waking world. The way you serve the world ambitiously speaks to your public life to solidify goals here.

Cancer: Where “I Socialize” captures this lunar focus, so whatever may need to be cleared out, go with your gut here. Hopes and wishes are equally in need of re-examination. If a group or cause no longer works -don’t remain in your shell- allow those claws to release their grip. Do accept that possible unexpected invitation to socialize. Creatively, it is time to recognize your greatest wisdom yet, but, you first must remember to check-in where you believe you can.

Leo: Redefine what harvest, stability, and reward really mean to you within your career and public life where “I Structure.” Completion is ready to emerge within that forest you reign so well Lion. Equally, this is a prominent time to reflect upon promoting or starting-up a new business. A nice recognition comes your way if your proper legwork was done to receive it. Authority figures shift. The environments you responsibility nurture are able to transform into significant wealth.

Virgo: Inspiration fuels where you reflect upon your philosophies and where “I Believe.” Feel that urge to travel and take a trip Virgin? You may now reflect upon ones you’ve had, or how you can make plans for more perfect ones in the future- all broadening your view of the world at large. Revisit adventures that engage your expansion and renew educational pursuits.  There is no better time to know when you maturely think about your partnerships, you learn stability.

Libra: While you always weigh the pros and cons, now these focus upon your securities and investments where “I Transform.” Now is the ideal time to reflect upon future decisions for changes here. The doors are open to review the core parts of you desiring completion- feelings embark intensely within rebirth for you. Enjoy the passion in being friendly to those sexy feelings. Learning what you value most, brings more imagination to how you can better serve others.

Scorpio: Your partnerships- romantic or business, are where your probing abilities research the truth of the matter now where “I Relate.” You’ve been already wondering what should stay or go here, and now is the time to make the space. People you reflect upon over this waning period are of special importance to future successes. It is the time to know a slow patient process of change is around you, and if you allow some creative time, you’ll reap the reward to honor them.

Sagittarius: Aim your arrows towards your health Dear Archer, and feel the improvement where “I Serve.” Let go of self-deceiving habits to bring in some renewed feelings of honesty for yourself. Your service others has also been in the process of naturally reworking itself- toss out old worn-out routines and look to let go of old patterns where you are employed. Time alone really sends home some important messages on how to nurture your environments better.

Capricorn: While an ambitious pursuit is welcomed, your creative nature now desires your full attention for this request to release Old Goat where “I Create.” Perfection is never too far away, and whatever your current project involves, it asks to reassess your inspired ideas. Playful feelings surround you- share time with kids or “brain children.” Somehow, where you socialize awaits your innate thoughts on how to be more responsible to hopes, dreams and wishes.

Aquarius: Ready to re-invent in the home Water Bearer where “I Nurture?” Reflecting upon improving this area of the life allows your individual way of doing things to flourish all the more later. Family time is rewarding. Your prophetic nature gets a boost from those déjà vu experiences, whose messages are of importance. The responsibility ahead in your public life is softened by the know that what you have is going to bring in an idea to earn more through it all.

Pisces: The waters your mentality swims in Dear Fishes now find some recycle time, as these are ready to absorb some review like a sponge where “I Communicate.” Short trips linger in the mind, and how to make them even more satisfying! Your intuition logically reveals what should not remain rooted in your thinking. Siblings or neighbors capture your attention too. Just being responsible to your core and over all wealth makes sure all of your first impressions make sense.

NEW Moon in Libra, 15 Oct 8:02am EDT

Accepting Intuition

This New Moon in Libra offers the opportunity for true forward motion in this area of the life since October 2010, as Saturn’s responsible presence here has offered up a slowing and patient pace. Now that he has moved on to toil where The Eagle soars, be ready to bring balance back and peaceful resolve where The Scales seek justice within your Zodiac Pie. Be open to a fresh path of friendly light to bestow diplomatic, tolerant, and sincere feelings throughout this Waxing Phase until 29 October.

Moon enters Libra 13 October 7:02pm EDT to 15 October 8:06pm EDT
When you have our Lunar Lady passing through the balance of The Scales, we have the ideal opportunity for comparison and co-operation to emerge within our lives. By tapping into a sensitive instinct, there isn’t a better Moon passage that so seemingly perfectly gravitates to peaceful, hospitable, charming, and friendly feelings. The emotional imagination becomes refined, as it eagerly looks to please and engage in harmonious channels. Be aware however of any possible lazy, evasive, and co-dependent reactions.

New Moon in Libra, 22 degrees, 15 Oct 8:02am EDT
As with any New Moon our feelings have the capacity to become fresh, and take on some initiating energies to bring improvements to our emotion bank accounts. The area of life that 22 degrees Libra falls in your natal birth chart, is the one which you will be able to see a new light emerge within, followed by a uniting process as this energy grows through this half of your Zodiac Pie. The intuitive perspectives of life easily come through this 22 energy as we wax, increasing in the light for the next two weeks leading up to the Full Moon upon 29 October.

For the Collective
This is one New Moon that brings forth an energy promoting the new, yet equally asks for reflection as this lunation occurs, it initiates a Moon Void-of Course. Each pass of our Moon through every Zodiac sign casts off a Void-of-Course passage as it makes it’s last major aspect to a planet before concluding the transit.  Until it enters the next sign, we are asked to not initiate under these periods for successful outcomes. Once this Waxing phase enters Scorpio 12 hours after our New Moon, we’ll have clearance to move forward with our plans.

At the 22 degree of Libra, there is another reflective request to unite both imagination and sensitivity to nurture a master foundation, just awaiting to blossom something innovative in the area of life it lives. There is more wisdom to reap from being submissive and utilizing caution for each step of this balancing act. What is it that needs to newly be allowed into being here, as you equally recognize that you no longer need to remain tolerant? Reward is found when this task is  pondered further.

LUNAR-O-SCOPE, NEW Moon in LIBRA, 2012
For the collective horoscope, again we offer some simple advice for every sign from the outer vantage point. Remember if you know your Rising Sign (Ascendant), read that passage too, for it typically will apply to your personal charts’ advice. However, it is the awareness and mathematical analysis of the individual birth chart that will point to the accuracy of how the current planetary landscape affects you.

For the true astrology buffs, be sure to check the Libra House, in particular where the 22-degree Libra spot in your natal birth chart lives. (A natal birth chart is determined from the time of birth, which allows a more in-depth look to equally see where some pondering is ideally meant to unfold in how the planets uniquely affect you.) Whether the collective or individual vantage point, these are the areas of life that call for you to bring forth initiation and beginnings within the next two weeks to follow. Properly embracing the new and gathering up in these areas until the next Full Moon upon 29 October will plant energies in place for future use.

Aries: Take a look outside yourself where “I Relate,” personal or business oriented. This initiates a period that brings victorious structure to this area of the life after the sense of being delayed and slow moving in the past couple years. While you are normally fearless to strike up conversation, the ability to flirt away at present is strong, and matters of love are on your mind-. A wonderful time to embrace new co-operative acts, know they most certainly are for you!

Taurus: Like you haven’t been reminded over the past year to bring improvements to your routine, personal habits, and health Dear Bull, where “I Serve.” We know you like to take your time, but you can expect to see impressive energy truly moving forward here.  Look at the way you are being of service to others, there is a fresh way to take your stance to do so. Forget about remaining in resistance to change, for these are just in time to bring a new balance to you.

Gemini: The Twins are definitely ready to make something new where “I Create!” An artistic or creative adventure just awaits your cleverness to engage it. Children can be on your mind, or require your focus now. A new love affair may also be entering upon the stage of your life, and this one is one to pay attention to. You feel solidarity here when you submit to knowing your intuition is how you attract to the stage of your life- and utilize caution before uniting in one.

Cancer: While home and family are always on the Crab’s radar concerning where “I Nurture,” it’s time to find new ways to blossom here now. Harmony awaits to find you where you refuel. Saturn didn’t always make it seem easy here in the past couple years, but remember what you learned from experience within all of your environments and be ready for a fresh course of action to now unfold. You just love a good déjà vu- instinctive messages are easily channel to you.

Leo: Time to even out the score where “I Communicate,” your Royal Highness. As Saturn’s patient pace here since late 2010 asked to listen wisely- these learning experiences have steadily taught you just that. Positive thoughts see positive results as now a true moving forward returns opening doors wide to write, educate, or learn. Siblings and neighbors also offer up rewarding energies. A mighty and justified roar is heard within your new thinking, mind, and brave heart.

Virgo: No need to fuss or worry about what “I Have!” Let this be the first thing to logically bring a new energy to- for Saturn has completed his duty here as your value system saw a slow and methodical restructuring since late 2010. A harvest within your career comes up with more abundance, contributing further to what you earn. Claiming your securities as if they are already yours lets the Universe know you have no fear. Start by treating yourself to something new.

Libra: It’s your turn Dear Scales to be in the lead of the gathering light, you’ll do this perfectly from your sense of “I Am.” Remember, new approaches to life say hello right now, these wish to bring a fresh face to how the world grabs its’ first impressions of you, as Saturn did his best to slowly change these since late 2010. While it’s always a pretty mask you wear, you really feel at peace with trying some different shades and hues that will enhance your immediate perceptions.

Scorpio: You’re quite comfortable in the subconscious realms that this Moons’ energy wishes to take you to regal Eagle where “I Process.” You’ve been wise to not deny the retreat from the world, as you have been with a deep responsibility to your inner world and dreams for a couple years. As this area of life is activated now by a go ahead to completely move forward, you find some amazing resolutions for the spirit. Enjoy knowing that a healing process has completed.

Sagittarius: Your attention to friendships and organizations has certainly been requested from you since late 2010, and you have been wise to focus upon where “I Socialize.” The recent roles you’ve learned about in groups allow your dreams even more room to blossom. You’ve prepared for an ultimate responsibility here that will have you now aiming your hopes and wishes into places you didn’t even know could be targeted. Unexpected invitations: take people up on them!

Capricorn: Cast off the worry old Goat. What you love so much –work, toil, and career- have been amidst a long patient process of change where “I Structure.” Those heavy feelings around since late 2010 about where your public life is headed; now ambitiously embrace the answers you’ve been waiting for. Your purpose, mission, and reputation have restructured for the long term as well as your overall stance upon authority. What now shows up differently here, is right.

Aquarius: Responsibility has been visiting your philosophical outlooks since late 2010, creating changes even the prophetic thinker like you couldn’t foresee coming where “I Believe.” There’s an important a trip you are about to embark upon -even if it is only in the mind- a fresh pursuit wishes to bring your aims to higher education. As Saturn recently and patiently curtailed old worn out beliefs, it’s now time to allow some new ones in for you to keep originating within.

Pisces: Time to bring some new life to any lingering financial revisions where “I Transform.” Investments, taxes, inheritances, shared/joint resources- any of these have good energies coming in to balance things properly. Remember however, Saturn did not reward impulsive or greedy decisions here since late 2010. Equally, there is a new current of intimacy taking you to some lively waters in this area, intuitively allowing you to swim near some purely sensual waves.

A Quick Word on The Pioneer….

Mars enters Sagittarius 


06 October
11:21pm EDT

Our Pioneer has set the stage for Mercury and Saturn since 23 August, and now brings motivation and drive to where The Archer aims within the life throughout 16 November. Desires become impulsive here and endurance and stability must be cultivated in order to reap the rewards of finding the spontaneous energy that is meant to be mobilized. While frank, self-righteous and even at times defiant attitudes may be displayed, be sure to respond with optimism, enthusiasm, and aspiration to curtail the ego’s argumentative reactions. When speculative, exploratory, inspired, and swift methods are utilized to combat conflict here, this free-will’s response of courage is highly rewarded.

As we see such a penetrating planet as Mars journeying within the realms of the Mutable Fire Sign Sagittarius, you definitely want to check in with your personal piece of the Zodiac Pie to know where to expect actions to come at you that may need that necessary response of patience. Even though our Archer is a truly “happy sign,” when Mars is present within this area of the life, let’s just say the tendency to stimulate anger issues and unconsidered slapdash reactions are all too easy to surface. Tongues are caught more often than not in instantaneous blunt retorts, which may result in the tasting of the foot as well. (should make for a swell remainder of the USA’s debate season, don’t you think?) As always with Mars, rising up in COURAGE to CURE OUR EGO and CAGE OUR RAGE is the key to claiming our victory.

Mars -aside from his courage and fighting spirit- equally sees over sudden changes and endings within the life, so be sure to recognize what may be looking for release or brought to conclusions here. All kinds of momentous energies are on high alert. As Mars recently set the props in place for this historical time Scorpio, now he also will be giving you clues as to what is coming up to ponder in review under the next Mercury Retrograde passage beginning 06 November, (even more fun for the USA’s politician as this is also Election Day, can we say REcounts anyone?). Mars will reach 04 degrees within The Archer by 13 October, which is the very degree point our Messenger begins his journey of reflection upon.

As always, a little “quick guide” from above via the collective feel to take a peak down here below, as to where you can expect to experience Mars getting things sparked up and motivating while he visits with Sagittarius. Remember if you know your natal chart, read for your Rising Sign as well for more personal advice. Knowing the early degree points of the upcoming Mercury Retrograde in Sagittarius, it is best to consult a professional astrologer to see how this sensitive passage will be precisely affecting you.

Saturn enters Scorpio: The Truth Transforms

Saturn enters Scorpio

4:34pm EDT

05 October

Everyone’s Scorpio slice of life is about to get intense to say the least, but if you have done your soul’s homework up til now, what blessings The Eagle can bring you will be connecting you to soar far more than you could ever imagine. As Mars has just prepared the stage here since 23 August- as our Messenger Mercury simultaneously arrives along with our Karmic Adjustor dear old Saturn- not only is this a most interesting time, but an exciting one.

Those who love to be responsible to the depths of life, the mysterious, the esoteric, allowing regeneration and change, embracing death and rebirth- will find themselves relishing in the next couple of years. This most certainly is a passage of truth. As Saturn enters Sagittarius in a couple more years, it will have come out and those who hate the truth, will be the ones who live in the lower energy of the Scorpion’s sting. Those that choose to embody The Eagle, will see their higher self rise to levels never imagined before- that will emerge from the depths of the unknown.

Allow your free-will to choose to not subscribe to the typical “gloom and doom” astrology forecast when it comes to Saturn. Yes, times ahead are gonna shake things up a bit, but some of the most marvelous times in history amongst such energies promise to produce some equally marvelous results when you know how to handle it all in response and not the react. Our response to the mysterious truth that exists within Scorpio is what is required now.

Scorpio energy is so precious but it cannot -above any other sign in the Zodiac- be abused, for the ill power that results is tormented beyond belief. When the presence of such a planet as Saturn is here, the accountability to this area of the life should not be ignored. It will be natural to see the slowing down of energies here, so that the patience pace of Saturn can help you learn from whatever experiences are meant to shape and mold the life into the stability that it is meant to grow into. Resistance to this, as they say is all the more futile. You’ve got to LISTEN to Saturn and be SILENT as you would hearing sound advice from a Father or authority figure.

As any individual will witness on a personal level what slow process of change Saturn will present while visiting with The Eagle- the collective will equally see this to be a time of profound transformation, regeneration and change. As Saturn transits through Scorpio, this simultaneously occurs as our already ongoing Uranus Pluto Square Dance plays out into 2015. Saturn -even though he will move forward into Sagittarius in early 2015, due to his Retrograde- will not officially be done with Scorpio completely for another 28 years until the summertime of 2015.

What becomes another point of interest to mention is how Saturn and Pluto’s current transits within Scorpio and Capricorn are playing out in this time in history.  There is a reversal in their journeys, as Saturn, who governs Capricorn, is in the very sign that Pluto -currently in Capricorn- governs of Scorpio. Saturn and Pluto are our most karmic planets within our planetary sky. As they both now mirror one another in the two most karmic signs on our Zodiac Wheel- well, let’s just repeat as we did in the beginning of this blog post, how very very interesting and exciting times we are most certainly amongst in history.

One of the two times we see these two planets give and take with one another will be as Pisces comes to pass in 2013. On 08 March 2013, Saturn Retrograde in Scorpio will sextile Pluto in Capricorn at the 11th degree. Even though a sextile is typically a pleasing energy, the 11 here denotes the Chaldeans innate knowing of the duality of this master number representing ‘A Lion Muzzled –A Clenched Fist.’  This will unfold an incredibly sensitive time as not only will this degree point ask for a emotional response verses reaction, but the concentration of other planetary energy in Pisces at this time unfolds a empathic calling that will start the true message of what humanity is meant to begin within it’s adaptations to seek understanding on immense levels. The presence of two will stand, and some how, a co-operative force not easily met, beckons to be heard.

Looking ahead to 21 September 2013, we see another sextile as Saturn in Scorpio and Pluto in Capricorn touch at 09 degrees above us all. Down here below, this will unfold in the last moments of Virgo at 29 degrees requesting ‘Grace Under Pressure‘ before Autumn 2013 arrives. At the 09 degree, there will be quite a shift in energy as a penetrating energy promises to unfold conclusions, finalizations and endings to how things are progressing. Conflict and aggressive action are on high alert to occur, but it will be the ultimate response of courage that will win any battle that may present itself to be fought.  Old traditions will be asked to responsibly transform and regenerate for long-term success and survival, making sure what you are seemingly comfortable with will not exactly remain the same. And don’t forget about Uranus always just a slightly squaring off this whole deal over in Aries- who will without question, make sure the realms of the rebellious and unexpected will continue to originate from The Ram. While we really have no idea how it will exactly be told, a whole new chapter of Huxley’s ‘A Brave New World’ will be written.

So ARE YOU READY FOR CHANGE Dear Stars? This time in our Zodiac lesson, it is best you raise your hand with a solid YES! For those -as Saturn in Scorpio patiently unfolds- willing to adapt and understand what death and rebirth truly means in life, will be the victors. Those choosing stagnation and closing their mind to the movement about to begin, will not be amongst those that find the glory in the years to come.

Where will you see Saturn’s affects call upon you the most? We have, as always, a little quick guide for you to be in the know of how and where to expect a slower, more responsible pace within this area of the life throughout 2015. Remember if you know your Rising Sign, read for that as well, but make sure you are in the know of the mathematical accuracy of your chart by consulting a professional astrologer. 



Aries: “I TRANSFORM” Transformations/Sexuality/Wealth 



Taurus: “I RELATE” Partnerships/Marriage/Balance with Others



Gemini: “I SERVE” Health/Being of Service/Employees/Pets



Cancer: “I CREATE” Creativity/Children/Love Affairs 



Leo: “I NURTURE” Home/Family/Emotions/Environments



Virgo: “I COMMUNICATE” Thinking/Mentality/Communications 



Libra: “I HAVE” Values/Earning Power/Possessions 



Scorpio: “I AM” Approaches/Mask to the World/Motivations 



Sagittarius: “I PROCESS” Inner Psyche/Clearing of the Past 



Capricorn: “I SOCIALIZE” Innovations/Friendships/Organizations 



Aquarius: “I STRUCTURE” Career/Public Life/Opportunities  



Pisces: “I BELIEVE” Philosophies/Foreign Travel/Education 

As Saturn will journey with Scorpio throughout December 2014, and then once more revisits here in the Summer of 2015, you’ll undeniably notice a slower pace coming from this piece of the Zodiac Pie. By honoring this request- true stability, wisdom and learning from the experience is all part of what unfolds. Collectively, striving to develop more emotional control, power of investigation, self-discipline, and independence lets in the forgiving spirit that is part of this period of intense transformation as the search for truth prevails in our earth’s history.

May You ‘Fly Like An Eagle’ Dear Stars til you’re FREE! 
The Truth: It sets you up to do just that!
Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’
Into the future

I want to fly like an eagle
To the sea
Fly like an eagle
Let my spirit carry me
I want to fly like an eagle
Till I’m free
Oh, Lord, through the revolution

Feed the babies
Who don’t have enough to eat
Shoe the children
With no shoes on their feet
House the people
Livin’ in the street
Oh, oh, there’s a solution

I want to fly like an eagle
To the sea
Fly like an eagle
Let my spirit carry me
I want to fly like an eagle
Till I’m free
Fly through the revolution

Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’
Into the future

I want to fly like an eagle
To the sea
Fly like an eagle
Let my spirit carry me
I want to fly like an eagle
Till I’m free
Fly through the revolution

Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’
Into the future

A Quick Word on The Messenger….

Mercury enters Scorpio

6:35am EDT

05 October

Our Messenger is right in time with our Karmic Adjustor Saturn as they both enter Scorpio upon 05 October. As our communications Guru spends time with The Eagle, it will be smart to make sure you are not engaging in any kinds of ruthless or skeptical mentalities. This choice of free-will only results in the lower energy of how Scorpio can operate within the deadly sting of The Scorpion.

Check in where Scorpio sits in your Zodiac Pie to know what area of life you can anticipate some movement and resourceful ideas coupled by penetrating and acute perceptions for this pass. The lack of detachment and variety along with a limited adaptability are to be avoided. Bitter, trenchant and intolerant methods of expressions will not bring out the truth. Rather, diplomacy is always The Eagles’ preferred way to soar into the mysteries and catch all the scope that wishes to be captured.

Mercury starts preparations for his upcoming Retrograde as his shadow begins 18 October. Communications and movement will be alive and well in this area of the life, and should unresolved issues be lingering here, probing and secretive mentalities are prominent for this pass. Not much will remain in the darkness that is meant come into awareness. Couple The Messengers’ presence with that of Saturn, and if you restrict your compliance to being responsible to what is being said within this area of the life, be prepared for sharp and piercing reactions to reign. Lessons needing to be learned will not be avoided.

Mercury moves ahead into Sagittarius 29 October before Retrograding upon the USA’s Election day 06 November, and returns to Scorpio once again upon 14 November, where he will remain in review until the 26 November. More to come on Mercury Retrograde, and what this last reflection offering in 2012 from our communications planet will have us wrapped up in redos and all those RE’s a bit later. Our Messenger, once in forward motion, will conclude his journey in Scorpio by 10 December.

Stay tuned Dear Stars. Life as we know it is really about to get extremely interesting….

Jupiter Retrogrades in Gemini: 04 oct to 03 jan 13

03 January 2013
16 to 06 degrees Gemini 

After all of 2012’s excitement where The Twins unite it all in your Zodiac Pie, it’s time for a bit of a needed break! Since May a Solar Eclipse, two New Moons, and the rare Venus-Sun alignment have all transpired here: this area of your life is primed now for some reflective energies to realign within. Look to where 16 deg to 06 deg Gemini lives on your Zodiac Wheel.

From now until 30 January 2013, it’s totally time to reassess and regroup here. While our Philosopher planet will not cause too much chaos while reviewing, he is asking for your ability to take up with a SILENT LISTEN and utilize the ever-clever mind to calm all the activity here and filter out what cannot unite together when forward motion returns in 2013. Let gossip and superficiality stay in the gutter where it belongs. Rise up to respond in an alert mind that thinks well because you recognize the changes in feelings are for the better good.

Jupiter will return back over the 05 June’s Venus-Sun alignment at 15 degrees Gemini from 19 October to 02 November.  This is a prominent time to take up in remembering all of the intentions placed (if you did your soul’s homework back in June) and see what needs a bit of a redo, reassess and realign. Knowing Gemini’s energy is ever on the go, versatile, at times distracted and even in the split: this passage offers up the perfect opportunity to take a look at how you can bring improvements to how the course of action has flowed, and make necessary corrections accordingly.

Aside from how Jupiter will personally ask for your philosophical mind to ponder in review here, expect a few things to occur on a global level as well. The collective can expect to self-educate a plenty as change and pressure of ideas expand. Bringing further understanding to the power of expression in this place within life keeps restless sensations at bay. With Jupiter being a planet of honesty, should any kind of truths not be out in the open, you can anticipate any truth of the matter to come out into the world of information to be seen and exposed. That “bluntness” of speech that is Jupiter’s signature style, will prevail strongly under this Retrograde passage. If it’s gotta be said, remember sometimes even though the truth can actually hurt, the enthusiasm for what it is meant to change will become wisdom to cherish in the long term.

Much continued reform will be seen in the publishing world, and kinks in the present landscape will be ironed out. Any form of broadcasting, higher learning, or communications exchange will be under the redo, review and renew microscope. Religious causes as well, may see some extra attention and focus in the media headlines, wherein the typical arguments of who is right and who may be wrong are more heated than normal. Logically, under retrograde in Gemini -that split and UNTIE may remain for any situation- but ultimately, in the revisiting, the UNITE is wishing to be discovered and embraced.

Along with beginning to reverse under a Gemini Waning Moon, we’ll have the next two Gemini Lunar passes under their waning offering up further reflection as they team up with Jupiter Retrograde, completing with the Lunar Eclipse at 06 degrees Gemini coming 28 November. In the weeks unfolding until this time, you’ll find this slice of the life to be completely filled with review, redo and revelations of truth. Whatever needs to be cleared out, will go, and even though Jupiter will still be traveling backwards, a sense of forward motion returns once we have a waxing (gathering) energy here again after the New Moon in Sagittarius 13 December pulls through to the Full Moon in Cancer upon 28 December. Right around Christmas time is when you’ll find ideal energies to pick up a little pace with Waxing Moons returning in Gemini. By February 2013, as Jupiter moves forward from the 06 degree Lunar Eclipse point, you’ll see the wonders of forward motion here in full play again.

In the meantime, Happy Reflecting in the MINI GEM energy of GEMINI!

Venus enters Virgo 03 October  2:59AM EDT
While Venus is the natural ruler of our current Libra Sun, she is still a sign behind and letting her idealism bring it’s logic to where The Virgin purifies and is of service to it all within the life. Collective affections find themselves looking to be controlled and discriminating- so it is important to not let the journey of perfection here become stagnate in any doubt destination that you’ve unrealistically arrived at.  While a slight nit-picky energy may emerge, try shifting into looking at the moral beauty of the situation at hand and recognize that a detached disposition truly will not attract anything else but a habit of avoiding intimacy. Embrace the purity of life where The Virgin lives within your Zodiac Pie, and see what gorgeous and healthier routines can harmonize into the life.

FULL Moon in Aries
29 September, 11:19pm EDT

Liberating Intuition

It’s that time of the year to RELEASE energy where The Ram takes charge of your life! The collective’s emotions take direction and pioneer to spark up conclusions as we begin another Waning Period, wherein our ongoing Uranus Pluto Square takes a second turn on the dance floor. Where will you require a keen and active instinct so as to not get thwarted by what unexpected transformations await in the next two weeks?

Moon enters Aries
8:57am EDT 29 September to 7:26pm EDT 01 October
A Full Moon in Aries brings forth independent and easily aroused feelings as our Lunar Light takes charge of what needs to be unraveled within The Ram. Aries energy must beware of restless, challenging, militant, and disobedient forces that may arise. When self-willed energies are around, it is easy to gravitate to unbalanced, aggressive, and hasty tendencies. While a strong sense of individuality and assertiveness mark any Aries passage, the cultivation of moderation, patience, forethought, and humility are wise to adhere to.

Full Moon in Aries, 29 September 11:19pm EDT, 07 degrees
When our Full Moon peaks in the driving energies of Aries -the sign that consciously aims for leadership- a fearless approach to this process ideally can find you here. As Libra seeks to unite our soul to understand intuition by separating from the senses- the emotional fire in Aries so ignites the sparks as quick realizations can be attained. However, in the naivety that can mark The Rams’ immediate responses, make sure your feelings don’t miss important understandings because they got carried away with enthusiasm.

For the Collective
This is a lunation that asks for another SILENT LISTEN at 07 degrees Aries. With the spiritual quest of Neptune here, it will be for many that time alone will bring the answers they wish to find. Equally this is an extra special dreaming moon for anyone as intuitive messages are ready to reveal the unknown to those that are ready to receive them.

While the Uranus Pluto Square Dance, Part Two, has already boogied directly across the floor on 18 September, this Full Moon is in conjunction to Uranus Retrograde at 06 degrees Aries and square to Pluto at 06 degrees Capricorn. Emotions are not guaranteed to make sense at this time, yet, any resistance to how they wish to surprise you as they regenerate will only attract a stagnation you won’t feel good about. Remember in how Aries and Capricorn are taking a long journey in making a new formation together, the more you are letting innovative energies fuel these transformative forces, the stronger your wall is being built.

LUNAR-O-SCOPE, FULL Moon in ARIES, 2012
For the collective horoscope, again we offer some simple advice for every sign from the outer vantage point. Remember if your Rising Sign (Ascendant), read that passage too, for it typically will apply to your personal charts’ advice. Remember it is the awareness and mathematical analysis of the individual birth chart that will point to the accuracy of how the current planetary landscape affects you.

For the true astrology buffs, be sure to check the Aries House, in particular where the 07-degree Aries spot in your natal birth chart lives. (A natal birth chart is determined from the time of birth, which allows a more in-depth look to equally see where some pondering is ideally meant to unfold in how the planets uniquely affect you.) Whether the collective or individual vantage point, these are the areas of life that call for you to bring forth completion and release within the next two weeks to follow. Properly clearing up and letting go in these areas until the next New Moon upon 15 October will make the necessary room for what is next to come.
.
Aries: The Lunar spotlight shines upon you Mighty Rams to put it all in perspective on how the world views you as “I Am.” Exciting and stirring feelings release from your normal pioneering approach, quite eccentrically! It’s no time to dive in head-first, so please pause and re-activate the self as originally as you can. And if this feels different, keep going. You’ll marvel later at the true power you are gaining in your career when you just let those old impressions go.

Taurus: The Bull has found some innovative energies, on those dives into the inner places in the life where “I Process.” Yet, the deepest plummet will now come to realize what must be let go of from within. The spiritual, subconscious realms, and the psychological make-ups of life call to really get away from what you normally like to touch and feel. Channel your natural virtue of patience, and those new beliefs that have been regenerating give you more optimism to grow.

Gemini: Friendships and organizations wish to capture your ever-active thoughts where “I Socialize,” Mini Gem. Groups or causes request your reassessment and review your part in the bigger humanitarian picture. Recognize what dreams and hopes no longer work for you. Accept that unexpected invitation to socialize: somehow, it has much to do with transforming you and may equally bring in a completion with how other people’s money is able to assist your cause.

Cancer: Harvest, stability, and reward are shining brightly upon you where “I Structure” in the career and public life, so this is no time to be crabby! Cast away worries, and allow this finalizing energy to freely clean up and reflect within your business and work place. Do expect a nice recognition to unfold if you’ve done your proper legwork to receive it, seemingly out of nowhere.
There are intense ties with your partnerships that help here when you seek to understand them.

Leo: Inspiration now fuels your philosophical path and ability to grow where “I Believe.” Reflection surrounds a recent trip or plans brew for a future one out of the blue. Bask in this lunar light of idealism- it helps you find ways to broaden your view of the world. An educational process reaches completion, which now has you totally ready to unite it with the regenerative ways you will now bring your royal services to the world, and be happier about your health.

Virgo: Securities and investments require reorganizing where “I Transform.” Take these two weeks to come to decisions, and move forward with the details after the New Moon 15 October. The more original and unique you are with manifesting wealth, reaps success. Core transformations and renewals call. Don’t be shy about the urges within your sexual nature, as reflection is well spent here. Keep investing in your creativity, it pays off for the long-term.

Libra: While your partnerships and where “I Relate” always may be on your mind- make the decision to soak up the reflective light here, from your romantic ties to business contacts. Weigh the pros and cons over during this waning period about what is just and fair with others. Look to how this is asking you to nurture your environments and relate to the power that is equally here.

Scorpio: Your regenerative powers have you feeling they are now ready to bring improvements to your health and all the ways you find that deep satisfaction where “I Serve.” Old routines and habits say adios. Find healthy break-throughs. While perfection is a journey- release your hold on it being a destination. Pets look for extra attention from you now, and help ease the way, which truly makes you feel good so you’ll find extra strength guiding your communications.

Sagittarius: You love fire in all of its’ forms, and now you’ll find you have all sorts of illumination at your fingertips where “I Create” as if your mark of innovation here hasn’t been enough as of late. A current project completes. Play like a child and be entertaining. “Brain children” or your offspring equally want to captivate your attention now, as you revise your aims here. When you see just how much worth is going on here, you see the power you truly have within your life.

Capricorn: Stop working and get to cleaning your house where “I Nurture” Dear Goat! Your home and family desires your toil and perfection. Look around your intimate environment and donate something unexpectedly to charity! Focus upon your loved ones, even if they are acting bizarre. Those déjà vu experiences, yes these are for real, and their channels are wide open for you to receive their important messages now. Keep up with the rebirth, it’s far from over yet.

Aquarius: You may find where “I Communicate” is swirling intensely with eccentric and electric thoughts Water Bearer, as this is a fabulous time to reinvent original ways you can improve upon your mental capacity. Siblings and neighbors may call. Your prophetic thinking is meant to find a reconnection to a vision probably only you will understand. Break-away from old worn out patterns and see what wonderful ways your solitary time is able to transform you from the core.

Pisces: As much as you always love this time of the month to reflect upon the past Dear Fishes, there is a different channel that realigns your sense of what  “I Have.” Swimming in the sea of values allows you to take stock of personal possessions, and give some away. Your earning power says let’s review. Security is explored and re-examined, which has some long-term plan in motion with those hopes, dreams and wishes to be a solid part of what reaps your rewards.

Mercury enters Libra

16 September
8:55am EDT

As Mercury journeys within The Scales throughout 05 October, balanced thinking is readily available as both sides of any issue are more easily seen in fair judgments. It will be key to make sure indecisiveness isn’t part of the well-polished methods of expression that equally will wish to grace our comparative communications.

Check in with your Libra piece of the Zodiac Pie to equally find where messages and information is easily channeled to you over this passage. Much knowledge surrounds the last degrees of Saturn in Libra, who will also move forward into Scorpio the very same day as our Messenger does.  04 October certainly will bring into our soul’s light all the lessons we have been asked to understand and process while our Karmic Adjustor Saturn has been here since October 2010.  This tipping point degree of the 29 within Libra will ask that we apply tremendous ‘Grace Under Pressure’ as the completion of energy here makes it’s way unto the collective landscape. Emotions, should they flare up under the intensity of this Mercury/Saturn conjunct, are meant to as always, be responded verses reacted to.

Before Mercury and Saturn meet up to make their dramatic entrance into transformational Scorpio upon 05 October, Mercury is able to provide us with well-ordered perceptions with intuitive flashes as he transits through The Scales. However, make sure to not take up in the distractions, which are so easy to come under this passage as well. When precision is sought through rational and well-balanced mental planes, expediency is no longer lacking.

Our Messenger is keen at this time to ask you to first seek to understand, then be understood, especially from your personal and collective charts vantage points. So, once again, check in where The Scales guide your piece of the Zodiac Pie to make sure you will judicially study this area of the life. Come to your own gentle perception in the next couple of weeks of how much you have learned from the slow, patient process that has been unraveling from Saturn’s persistent presence here that is now coming to a close for another 28 years. The knowledge you have gained now can be applied as wisdom for the future.
