New Moon in Pisces: Redemption

New Moon in Pisces: Redemption

Happy Pisces New Moon! Happy solar eclipse! This is the time of the year when we open up a new chapter focused on compassion, healing, spirituality, retreat, mysticism, art, and music. If new moons are new beginnings, then a solar eclipse turns our focus to the coming six months. The new moon […]

Eclipse season is always a bit of a strange time. There’s an electricity in the air, a subtle current hinting at a change in direction. Sudden and unexpected events have been known to occur just as things “eclipse” out of our lives. Tomorrow’s Pisces solar eclipse, just like any solar […]

Come tomorrow, Mars will move into Sagittarius, igniting within us all a need for travel, exploration, new perspective, and philosophy. In fact, Mars will be in Sag for the next 10 weeks — a bit longer than it normally spends in a sign. Why? Because Mars will turn retrograde on […]

Yesterday Mars arrived at 29 Scorpio, a degree that’s gotten a bit of traffic in the last year. The last degree of any sign has a fair bit of urgency to it. What have we learned? What have we mastered? 29 of Scorpio? The urgency is verging on crisis. Scorpio […]

We’re in the gate for some bumpy astrology. A week from now, on March 8, we’ll have a solar eclipse at 18 Pisces. If you are a Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, or Pisces, you’re likely feeling the build of energy. Me? I’m not immune. I have 22 Sag rising and major […]

Oh, hey, it’s totally March. While we patiently wait for my monthly horoscopes to drop, let’s peer ahead and see what’s in store. In short — two eclipses, Mars in Sagittarius, and Saturn turns retrograde. Any time you have a month with eclipses in it you know that things will […]

Happy Monday! The Moon may be wrapping up its stay in Scorpio, but it’s arrival in Sagittarius later today will highlight an area that has been getting a lot of play. And what is Sagittarius? Faith. Meaning. Truth. A restless push to explore. There’s a huge push happening to figure […]

Let’s talk Pisces. Not only are we in the last leg of the astrological year, but we’re in a bigger period when themes of compassion, spirituality, healing, and release are highlighted more than usual. Mind you, this is the highest expression of Pisces, the sign that reveals the veil between […]

Hi guys, we may be feeling a little raw after Monday’s Virgo Full Moon. Highlighting themes of service, sacrifice, and redemption, we may have some tough decisions to make. It’s no longer about us. Instead it’s what’s being asked of us in service of something far greater. But with every […]

One of the threads of yesterday’s Virgo Full Moon was this ongoing opposition we’re having between Jupiter and Chiron. If Jupiter is faith and a search for meaning, then Chiron is the pain and grief that gnaws at our faith. We’ve all been through so much in this life time. […]
