7 Rules of Life

A Desire for a Romantic Partner Escalates!

A willingness and desire for a romantic partner climaxes as the Moon enters  "Charming" Libra, a refined, poised and sociable sign that promotes diplomacy, harmony and balance. Libra's like to have a partner, both in business and in romance! Several planets in the sign of "Compassionate" Pisces enhances this energy. Although Libra is a peace-making sign, Libra energy doesn't mind ruffling some feathers if the matter at hand isn't fair and square. Using the planetary energy to your advantage, it's a great time to balance emotion with intellect & dreams with logic. It's a great time to think & reflect about your past, and then determine where you stand in the present moment, and finally move toward the future destination! 

This evening, the Libra Moon Opposes "Erratic" Uranus in "Feisty" Aries, bringing a passionate energy to your romantic desires and overall plans, but also creating some resistance. Therefore, whatever strategies you are using to win someone's heart, make sure you have a couple of backup plans just in case. Rushing to your aid is the "Luck Planet" Jupiter bolstering your ideas so your plans can expound. The "Charming" Libra Moon forms a favorable aspect to Jupiter in "Clever" Gemini helping you to talk your way in and out of difficult situations with ease. Both Libra & Gemini are air signs, allowing for the intellect to process in flow.  Ideas you dream up today are like getting a really cool message out of a fortune cookie. Just remember to plan accordingly and remember to stay on course. The only downfall is that indecisiveness could be a dilemma. Be sure to pair-up what feels right along with what is the sensible thing to do, and then - Go for it!

 An interesting twist in the planetary energy happens today. Ideas catch fire and the mind races as your thinking cap jams into fifth gear and your dreams go into the outer realms. A creative, innovative and brain-powered time, indeed. This is because Mercury, the planet of the Mind teams up with Mars. Both planets are in "Imaginative" Pisces however the "Detailed-Orientated" Virgo Moon Opposes the tag-team of Mercury and Mars giving your dream-world, zany ideas & higher aspirations a real kick in the pants.  While your perceptions are at a peak and your dreams become apparent, you may feel as though your dreams are just out of reach or you may have a nagging naysayer who tells you to pay attention to the fine print and the minor details of life. B-O-R-I-N-G! Right? You can still dream, just be careful of contradictions coming from those around you. Putting pen to paper may mean a rewrite down the line, so be careful what you sign, and intentions and reality may not be on the same page. Don't give up. Instead, put your ideas on your "Vision Board" and give yourself ample time to mull over the fine details at a later time.

FULL MOON; VENUS ENTERS "PASSIONATE" PISCES!

The Full Moon in the "Practical" sign of Virgo joins "Organized" Saturn in "Determined" Scorpio and "Transformational" Pluto in "Ambitious" Capricorn. Motivation to get your home-life, security and business matters are strong at this time. Deep level changes, relationships with sincerity, and core values may get your attention. Getting down to the nuts and bolts of getting your life in order becomes paramount.  Moreover, your romantic interest, life-long dreams and monetary goals become a main theme. Cresting the Full Moon, Venus enters the dreamworld of "Imaginative" Pisces. A full moon brings it's own level of intensity, but this Moon in particular may get the best of your emotions as the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Neptune are all in Prophetic Pisces and there to stay for a while! To boot, the "Detailed Orientated" Virgo Moon wages war with Neptune, ruled by Pisces, the Sun and Jupiter. There may be an internal conflict between dreams verses practicality. Your mind may go from over-analyzing everything to  to drifting off into a dreamworld of wishful thinking. Your receptivity is high and this makes it easy to absorb the thoughts, feelings and moods of others. It's especially important to avoid negative people and situations at this time. Boundaries on all fronts can also become obscure. However, if you can manage to keep your head clear and avoid the negativity; your perceptions and imagination are beaming right now, giving you the ability to recognize the road blocks that stand before you and the opportunity to creatively re-route your course!  Additionally, empathy, compassion and a sympathetic approach in communicating with others is possible, paving the way toward healing. Closure with an old flame, beginning anew or renewing your vows is possible.  Mystics, poets, artists, musicians, dancers, actors, writers, healers and all things in the creative and imaginary realms can soar their talents to new heights. Everyone, regardless of artistic talent, can take your thinking to new depths and can think "outside the box" to develop new innovative ways of doing things. This is a great time to sort through what you've done in the past to bring you to where you stand right now, then decipher what steps you need to take to move forward in a positive direction. Use this inspiring energy to your advantage!

Mercury Goes Retrograde; How to Turn this Mercury Retrograde to Your Advantage!

The next three weeks may well mark a lot of ebbs and swirls in your love-life, career, and social arena. Mercury, the planet of the mind and communication turns Retrograde today. Because Mercury is in the sign of "Sensitive" Pisces along with the Sun, Mars, Neptune and Chiron (all in Pisces); this is going to be an intense time of going within yourself and looking deeply at your life and those around you. Although planets going retrograde is typically negative, ironically, this can be a opportune time to turn your life around. You may also be able to fulfill fantasies and expand upon life-long dreams.  Ear-marking today's retrograde, the "Creative" Leo Moon forms favorable aspects to both the "Luck" Planet Jupiter in "Savvy" Gemini and to "Flash-of-Insight" Uranus in "Pioneering" Aries. This energy is like spark & a rush of creative energy to the body, mind and spirit and allows you to envision your full potential. You can use this retrograde period as a powerful launching pad to develop innovative ideas to long-standing problems, as well as, develop completely new ways of living your life. Although you may feel blocked temporarily from moving forward in the present moment because of "this" or "that," your mind is a powerful entity. If you allow it, your mind can be bursting out of the seams with ideas!  Pisces energy fosters an active imagination and people who possess natal charts influenced by Pisces are oftentimes gifted in art, music, poetry, dance, the healing arts and mystical aspirations. Pisces energy encourages empathy, compassion and can bring people closer together and can create a better understanding of human behavior and character defects. Pisces energy can inspire you to make personal sacrifices for the sake of others. Emotions will tend to run high and your gut level intuition will be at it's peak. Additionally, this retrograde period kicks-off with the "Dramatic" Leo Moon butting heads with Saturn in "Penetrating" Scorpio forcing you to purge deep into your psyche and purge out all the needless negativity (your thoughts, as well as, people, places and things). If something has been wrong, now is the time you will notice that change is necessary!  On the downside, it is possible to take on a persecution or martyrdom complex and  harbor self-pity. Additionally, confusion, indecisiveness, a lack of personal boundaries and becoming self-absorbed  may be problematic. As with any zodiac sign, it's always important to keep the thoughts positive because all signs possess positive and negative traits. It's all in how you harness the energy. It's a time for healing as well as great change. Use this time of Mercury Retrograde to develop your roadmap, then when Mercury turns direct, you can spring into action!

The planets are in constant motion, therefore the particular area of your life that may be impacted depends on where Mercury falls in your natal chart AND "where" Mercury is orbiting right now! For example, if Mercury is in your 7th house, the greatest impact will be on your long-term relationship sector of your life. However, if Mercury is in your 10th house, it will impact your career. If Mercury is in your 11th house, it will impact your friendships and social life. If Mercury happens to fall in your 1rst house, the focus will be all about You!

A Clear Vision Heals Past Hurts!

A sense of greater compassion, heightened intuition, spiritual ideals, and an active imagination are like snow capping the peak of a mountain right now.  The Sun in "Prophetic" Pisces aligns with Neptune, also in Pisces illuminating a dream-world of imaginative ideas and getting you in touch with your higher-self. Your perceptions of yourself and the people around you become crystal clear under this influence. This energy is enhanced by the "Sensitive" Cancer Moon's favorable aspects to "Mentally-Ambitious" Mercury and Mars - both in the sign of Pisces. Your faith will be tested at this time, and can be strengthened "if" you allow it. Moreover, the Moon Trines Saturn in "Determined" Scorpio, therefore, giving up on your agenda right now is Not an option, but you will yearn for some sort of stability in your life. Pisces, Scorpio & Cancer are all water signs. These energies allows you to dream "Big!" It allows you to connect with the divine and discover your soul purpose and pick up on the energy of everyone around you. Your intuitive radar has great potential during these transits! However, if you don't harness the energy properly, some people can fall into such a dreamy state of mind that they may lose touch with reality, lean toward escapist tendencies or get lost in a sea of confusion. Overindulgence of food, alcohol or just about anything is possible as well. The Cancer Moon Opposes the "Regeneration Planet" - Pluto. You may find yourself having internal conflict about someone or something from your past, or you may have this nagging feeling that someone is blocking you from progress. Now is the time to deal with it. Either make amends or let it go! It's a great time for getting in touch with yourself and healing past hurts. You may have to come to terms with something in your life in order to move forward. The key here is to focus on the creative side how to build upon constructive ideas for "you" and your future. Avoid the "coulda, woulda, shoulda" mindset or you will be back-peddling Fast! Instead, pick up that song or that art project that is "almost" finished. Painting, pottery, music, come to fore. Other activities include: working on a herb or flower garden and any kind of water sport you can dream of from wading in the water to sailing in the ocean! Sea salt baths are good for cleansing the energy and aura right now. Getting a chakra alignment is very healing at this time.  You may also want to pick up a hobby that you always wanted to try but never got around to it. Stop putting it off - Now is the time. Just Do It!

Universe Puts us in touch with our Intuition & Feelings!

Send me a box of tissues please!  Your mind, body and the actions you take are all fueled by emotions right now. The Sun, Mercury, Mars  and Neptune are all in the sign of "Sensitive" Pisces. Additionally, the Moon just entered "Emotionally-Driven" Cancer. This is a great time to get in touch with how you feel about yourself and those around you. The veil may be lifted and freedom of thought that is unhindered by restrictions is possible. Despite the 5 planets in sensitive signs, The Love Planet, Venus, is in the sign of "Innovative" Aquarius,  allowing us to see our love-life & relationships from a unique perspective, yet also allowing us to remain cool & detached while we critique and analyze our situation. Although we may feel like wearing our hearts on our sleeve, this is Not a time to take matters to heart. Both Pisces & Cancer  are  intuitive, receptive, sympathetic and sensitive to the needs of others. However, both signs can also become highly introverted and go into seclusion as their feelings get hurt very easily. These soft-underbelly "water" signs can leave the most hardened feel a little oversensitive and over emotional.  If you can get out of your own way (in the "feelings" department), your intuition  is heightened at this time. The "Nurturing" Cancer Moon forms favorable aspect to both the Sun in Pisces and to Neptune Pisces.  This combination can put us into altered states of realities very easily. Prophetic dreams, heightened psychic ability, and astral travel all come with ease. The only dilemma this may cause for some people is walking around in a daze and Not being able to get anything done! Confusion may set in if you attempt to make any sort of decision. It's best to hold off on major decisions for now. A world of dreams and visions may take you over. Fantasy favors concrete facts right now. If you enjoy music, the arts, theater or anything that can spark the imagination; Now it the time to Act on it. The Universe is trying to get us in touch with our innermost desires and feelings. If something has been wrong, you will be feeling that something isn't right during this time. Use logic, and that friendly, yet cool & detached energy that is brought on by the Venus in Aquarius,  to come to the right conclusion. Then, you can pick up the pieces and decide on how to proceed. 

The Gemini Moon Entices Venus in Aquarius

The "Inquisitive" Gemini Moon forms a favorable aspect to the Love Planet, Venus in "Visionary" Aquarius. Your mind will tend to be thinking about Love, Romance, Friendships and Relationships of all sorts. You may be feeling a bit "fickle" about your love life right now and even hoping that there may be "greener pastures" out there. You may be debating between 2 lovers or be attracted to somebody who is typically Not your type!  Mental stimulation, the ability to communicate and friendship within the romance are all at the top of the list right now. On a cautionary note: Think carefully about what you want to say before just blurting things out today. The Moon in "Mentally Alert" Gemini rears it's ugly head at  2 planets; Uranus in "Head-strong" Aries and Mercury in "Sympathetic" Pisces. Conversations and communication of all sorts may be difficult. Sharp words verses a heartfelt need to say what you feel may create some internal conflict or disagreements & misunderstandings with those around you. Your ideas may Not be well received and you may be forced to explain yourself only to find that what you are saying is falling on deaf ears!  Feelings can get hurt easily under this influence and people may lash out and use a sharp  tongue or become overly emotional. Patience and short tempers may also be an issue. This is a better day for doing your own self-critiquing and analyzing on your own or with a trusted friend - Not with the person you having problems with!   What feels right may be impractical or misleading, so a second look is in order to avoid having to reposition later. Use this down-time to think about what you want to do rather then deliberating over things with the person in question.

Saturn Turns Retrograde - Now What?

Your intellectual mind will combine nicely with vivid dreams for expansion today. The Moon is in "Mentally-Ambitious" Gemini and forms healthy aspects to both "Expansive" Jupiter, (also in the sign of "Quick-Witted" Gemini) and Uranus in "Energetic" Aries.  Your mind will be buzzing with ideas about expanding your life and thinking seriously about your future. The motivation and drive will be strong to succeed. Moreover, the Sun leaves "Visionary" Aquarius and enters "Perceptive" Pisces changing the imaginary ideas you developed under the Aquarius Sun from an intellectual viewpoint to emotional desires. Pisces is a water sign that enjoys going with the flow, like the currents of the Ocean.  As a water sign, Pisces does Not usually enjoy "boundaries." This may be a dilemma for some, as Saturn, the conservative planet of "Restrictions," goes Retrograde Today!  During a Saturn Retrograde, you will be mulling over all the red tape that you allowed to fall by the wayside in the past.  If something is unbalanced in your life; it is during a Saturn in Retrograde period that you may find a need to re-assess your situation and fix and repair things that are long over-do. Security issues in home-life, family affairs, relationships and career come to fore. Also, it may be that you experience difficulty with authority figures. Don't be surprised if your ideas need restructuring, revamping or renegotiating in order to deal with difficult people. A structured and well organized plan will get you much farther than winging it by the seat of your pants!  During a Saturn in Retrograde, it is the time for setting boundaries for people who have climbed over your fence and run all over you and your property. Disengaging from negative situations or people that no longer serve you may also be happening. Restructuring and reorganizing your life, both on a personal and professional level will be on the agenda beginning now and will continues thru July 7th, 2013 when Saturn turns Direct! 

Use Logic, Not Emotions to Solve Problems!

The Moon enters "Quick-Witted" Gemini beginning late this afternoon and over the next few days will have our minds bubbling  with ideas and holding conversations about our intentions. Today is a great day for thinking, writing and speaking but not necessary taking any major course of action. Why? The day begins the with the Moon in the "Cautious" sign of Taurus and the Moon is at odds with the Light of the Universe - The SUN in "Unpredictable" Aquarius. Both signs are very determined but simultaneously stubborn when fighting for a cause. Taurus tends to use the past and what is standing before them right now as a signpost for moving forward, where Aquarius is all about the future and uses an active imagination and visionary ideas to manifest desires. If you can take the best qualities of each sign and find a common ground on these energies, you will be good to go. Patience and understanding of other peoples' viewpoints is key. Late tonight, the Maverick Gemini Moon is at odds with Neptune in "Receptive" Pisces. Watch out for tricksters who attempt to confuse you. Overindulgence in food, alcohol or  anything else will only amplify this effect and make you more vulnerable. It is very important to keep your energy guarded & grounded today & tonight. Stay away from emotional confrontations and use "Logic" as your key solutions to problem solving. The positive energies that the universe is generating is analytical thinking, creativity, diligence, prudence, and visionary ideas.

Practical Ideas have Legs to Stand On!

Today you can step forward with confidence knowing there's solid ground to stand upon. The 1rst Quarter Moon enters "Dependable" Taurus. The next couple of days can be solid launching ground for anything you choose to embark upon, especially if it's down to earth to begin with. The time to be hasty or flighty has flown, the atmosphere favors practical beauty, the grace of being in touch with nature itself. Additionally, you will have a flair for creativity and your intuition will peak as the Moon forms a favorable aspect to Neptune in "Spiritual" Pisces. Words may convey a bit more emotional meaning than usual, as under-the-radar communication makes inner messages clear.
    Mars in "Perceptive" Pisces joins Pluto in "Sensible" Capricorn. Mars in the sign of Pisces combined with "Purging" Pluto puts a new spin on taking action. Your feelings will weigh heavily in all that you do, however doing what practical will favor over fantasy. Acts of compassion and good deeds to others are common during this transit. You being firm & assertive but not controlling is the key to getting along with everyone.  When expectations are clear, it is easy to achieve harmony and mutual cooperation. The mere assumption that it's going to work out is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Diligence and prudence put to practice brings the results that you seek.

Moon Tickles Venus just in time for Valentine's Day!

The Moon in "Enthusiastic" Aries forms a favorable aspect to "Sensual" Venus in the "Perceptive" Aquarius and to the Sun, also in "Visionary" Aquarius. Aquarius likes progress, therefore, the future and where you are headed in your relationship will be important now, especially with the intensity of Valentine's Day upon us. Although Aquarius energy can make us all a little cool & detached, it can also give us empathy to other people's viewpoints and be more accepting of peoples flaws. Aquarius energy encourages individualistic thinking and focus on thy self. This is Not necessarily a bad thing. You have to be in touch with yourself before you can co-mingle with another. Fairness and equality in relationships will also be a major focal point, so if you feel that you are getting the raw end of the stick, or that your relationship is unbalanced, now is the time you will most likely address the issue. Intellectual compatibility and open communication with your significant other is paramount now. Since Aquarius is a little unconventional, you will be more accepting of oddball ideas but stand firm on being told the truth. Honestly prevails! Active imaginations, artistic ability, music and socialization with friends, neighbors and family are favored.

Look Before Your Leap!

A burning desire to change your life or the world around you for the better is invigorating. The "Pioneering" Aries Moon joins both "Rebellious" Uranus and "Enthusiastic" Jupiter.

Jupiter is in Gemini, a quick-witted and adaptable energy that inspires you to use the power of your mind to communicate with others. You may want to jump right in or head in a new direction without much thought. However, expect opposition to your plans as "Eliminating" Pluto in "Organized" Capricorn tries to put a damper on your springboard of ideas. Pluto energy wants to purge and cleanse all the gunk out of the situation before moving forward. You may have feelings that your life needs a complete overhaul, or someone else may impose it upon you! Moreover, Pluto is in the sign of "Conservative" Capricorn calling for "structure" and "order" in your life. Depending on your sign will determine how well you handle it. People who have a lot of earth signs in the planets of their natal chart may handle this well, but the more idealistic signs, particularly the fire and air signs may find this more difficult. Use the energy of the universe to drum up your ideas. Then, come up with a realistic and pragmatic road-map before moving forward. In this way, you stay in the Universal Flow of energy and manifest your desires!

Mercury, the planet of the Mind teams up with "Transformational" Pluto in "Ambitious" Capricorn and "Structured" Saturn in "Determined" Scorpio.  You will seek partners who are intellectual and communicative. Mental stimulation will be as important as an active libido. A desire to build a secure foundation for the future with a security net to land safely upon will be of importance now. Blending emotions, mental acuity and action go hand-in-hand.  Communication about business and money should come with ease. Change is possible if you take the first leap of faith.

Additionally, the Moon in "Sensitive" Pisces is butting heads with "Expansive" Jupiter in "Restless" Gemini. You may feel like you want you want to move forward with your intentions but a grid-lock of energy may encapsulate your ideas and prevent you from carrying them out.

Late tonight, the "Steadfast" Capricorn Moon goes to war with Uranus in "Fiery" Aries. If there's any pent-up anger, avoid those who are untrustworthy, giving you aggravation or stirring the pot!

Your Love Life May be about to take A New Twist! Venus Enters "Independent" Aquarius; Mars Enters "Receptive" Pisces!

Love and relationships take on a new twist and your traditional ideas about home-life, money and relationships may go out the window. Venus, the feminine energy of the Universe enters "Unconventional" Aquarius. Venus in Aquarius encourages a need for freedom and independence in relationships. Quirky desires and strong desire to spend more time alone may be felt. Simultaneously, you will prefer the "candid" approach, and your expectations for honesty and integrity will escalate. Malicious liars, game players and tricksters will be tossed by the wayside. 

To throw us all spinning in a loop; Mars, the Masculine energy of the Universe, enters "Nurturing" Pisces. Role reversals in male-female dynamics is likely because Venus represents the feminine energy but Aquarius is masculine, whereas Mars is masculine and Pisces is feminine. Pisces is emotionally sensitive, introverted, nurturing and sympathetic. Aquarius is sociable, intellectual, yet cool, detached and unpredictable. This overall mish-mosh of energy could create turmoil, disorganization, and confusion in relationships. Getting anything accomplished may be difficult. Although seemingly detached, Aquarius energy encourages activities that help humanity at large. Both signs are spiritual, visionary dreamers, highly creative, musically talented, intuitive, peace-loving, and inclined to put the needs of others' before themselves. Volunteering for the local "Soup Kitchen" or "Habitat for Humanity" are key examples. However, the energy of both signs can propel a person to spend so much time in their head thinking and dreaming that nothing gets accomplished! There needs to be strong influences of earth and fire elements in other planetary transits or in one's natal chart. Do things to "ground" your energy!

 Venus remains in Aquarius thru February 25th.  The Sun and Mercury are also in the sign of Aquarius amplifying this energy. Mars remains in Pisces thru March 12th, placing a strong emphasis on "big dreams," nostalgia, trances and prophetic dreams. This is a great time for bolstering anything that has a creative aspect: music, arts, and writing come to fore. Spiritual quests, meditation, and searching for your soul purpose will be very productive during this time. If you are Not in a committed relationship, it may be hard to pin one down during this time. A great way to bolster any relationship or friendship at this time is volunteering for a "group cause" together!
