Let’s be honest. The astrology right now is, shall we say, a bit watery. Even with the Moon wrapping up its stay in Gemini, an air sign, everything is pretty much pointing back to the five — count ’em — five planets in Pisces. The water signs — Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces — are signs that…

As of Saturday, Venus is in Pisces! I actually quite like Venus in Pisces. In classical astrology we say that Venus is exalted in Pisces, which is just a fancy way of saying that it’s a sign that she does her best work in. If Venus is love, value, beauty, and cooperation, the she does…

March 2016 Horoscopes
I’m fascinated by astrology and this idea of metaphorical time. When the Sun is in Pisces, as it is for most of March, the cosmic weather shifts. It gets hazy and damp with a dash of glitter. We also experience life through the prism of compassion, sensitivity, spirituality, and reflection as well as suffering, grief,…

When Venus gets into Pisces on Saturday, we’ll have five planets in the sign of sensitivity, compassion, artistic inspiration, spirituality, mysticism, and 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 will be exact on March…

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 eclipse, is a flip of…

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 April 17. From now until…

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 isn’t an easy sign. We…
