Monday, March 19, 2012Spring Equinox and Aries New Moon 2012 We begin the astrological new year with the Sun going into Aries at the Spring Equinox. Springtime is a season of renewal - new life bursts forth in Nature, sending up crocuses, tulips, daffodils and hyacinths and unfurling new leaves and blossoms on trees. It is a time of hope and optimism, of renewed confidence that life will go on with good times to come.first there must be the death of the old life so new life can grow.
Tuesday, August 14, 2012The Cosmic Story: Leo New Moon, August 17, 2012 Where the sign of Cancer exemplifies the feminine powers of the Moon and the Night, Leo shines out with the power of the Sun and masculine solar consciousness.The Sun symbolizes not only Spirit, but our individuality. When a culture is based primarily on masculine solar principles and denigrates and rejects the mysterious lunar powers of the unconscious realms, Sun-consciousness turns deadly, scorching the Earth.
Monday, January 25, 2010Leo-Aquarius Full Moon 2010: Let's Play in the Aquarian Mindfield Let's all engage in an Aquarian Experiment. With our two luminaries in the signs of creative expression (Leo) and group consciousness (Aquarius)this full moon, I thought it might be fun for all of us to play, another Leo trait, in the Aquarian mind-field - together.
Thursday, March 11, 2010Pisces New Moon, March 15, 2010 Pisces is the last sign of the Zodiac, symbolizing the completion of the human journey to wholeness. From Aries to Capricorn, there is a personal lesson to be learned. With Aquarius and Pisces, we are called to learn collective lessons of head and heart. With 6 out of 10 planets (+ Chiron, an asteroid) in these two signs, the cosmic story says it's time for each of us to align our individual stories with the cosmic story.
Saturday, April 10, 2010Aries New Moon, April 14, 2010 Aries really wants to establish a unique identity, to pioneer a new way of being. Think of a volcano - that's how Aries creates new territory. Life rushes up and out and boldly goes where no one has gone before.
Friday, January 2, 2015The Cosmic Story: Cancer Full Moon 2015 Each New Year we take time to look back over the old year to understand what we've learned and then look forward to the possibilities for this new year. With the Cancer Full Moon,we take a look at how well our society(Capricorn Sun) supports our needs(Cancer Moon). Let go of the rules which no longer serve you. It's time to tell a new story--one that isn't centered around money or the economy, but around love and community.
Tuesday, March 1, 2011Pisces New Moon, March 4, 2011 When we reach the 12th sign of the Zodiac, we come to the end of our year-long journey. The lesson: Take everything you've learned, experienced and loved; everything you imagined, hoped for and desired for the future - and let it go! Or as Christ said: sell all your riches and come follow me. This is the quintessence of the yearly cycle.
Tuesday, November 2, 2010Scorpio New Moon November 5-6, 2010 The Scorpio New Moon, occurring on November 5th at 9:52pm Pacific time and on November 6th at 12:52 Eastern time, is very powerful this year because it sits alone in the sky. It makes no major aspects to other planets, and so we are left alone with ourselves to dive deep and explore the scorpionic themes of death and rebirth. The new seeds we plant must gestate in darkness for a while.
Tuesday, March 3, 2015The Cosmic Story: Virgo Full Moon March 5, 2015 These past 7 years years of turmoil have been heralded by the Heavens. Why is it so hard to believe that we are connected to the meaning that the Heavens unfold for us? The Heavens are telling us of the continuing story of the unfolding of the 60's promise. Isn't that what's happening here on Earth? Of course we're meeting resistance. The old never dies without a fight--it's called the sunset effect.
Friday, February 8, 2013The Cosmic Story: Aquarius New Moon, February 9-10, 2013 Each year on the Aquarius New Moon we also celebrate Chinese New Year. This year is the Year of the Water Snake, a time to shed some emotional skin. This Aquarius New Moon is a good time to plant new seeds for greater cooperation, independence and vision. To really do it right, we need to shed those skins!
Sunday, January 26, 2014The Cosmic Story: Aquarius New Moon 2014 The 2nd New Moon of the Month is also a celebration of the New Year--this time the Chinese New Year of the Wood Horse. The Cosmic Story offers us a chance to look at our society and find like-minded people to work with to change the world. As we contemplate the future this month--a very Aquarian thing to do--decide what you want to do and then go find like-minded people to do it with. We are preparing for a big April!
Wednesday, January 21, 2009Aquarius New Moon Solar Eclipse/Year of the Ox 2009 The energy of Aquarius takes our individual ego energy and seeks to unite it with the other energies of the planet. For too long, we have concentrated on rugged individualism, have seen ourselves as separate from the rest of the ecosystem, as well as from the rest of humanity. It is time to learn to merge our individual energies with the planetary grid. What is our role as human beings here on Earth?
Friday, August 22, 2014The Cosmic Story: Virgo New Moon 2014 The light is waning, the harvests need to be taken in. We are entering the sign of Virgo, the Virgin. the ancient meaning of 'virgin' meant a woman who did not belong to a man--a free woman, not a sexually inactive one. As the world continues to fall into the chaos that needs to proceed new life, the Goddess of Wisdom is available to us. The goddess who best typifies Virgo is the Virgin Mary. See what she has to teach us.
Wednesday, February 24, 2010The Virgo/Pisces Full Moon 2010: This month, we find ourselves in the "in-between' space where the formless Piscean ocean meets the cultivated landscape of Virgo. The End, the Beginning and the Harvest. Water and Earth. Change and Stability. Spirit and Soul. Union and Uniqueness. Surrender and Service.
Tuesday, December 2, 2014The Cosmic Story: Gemini Full Moon, December 6, 2014 As we approach the end of 2014, there will be another Pluto/ Uranus meeting in the heavens. This is the 6th of 7 squares, challenges to us to change, to take responsibility for the world we want to create. The forces of repression are strong, but they won't win in the end. Evolution happens! This week's Full Moon prompts us to open our minds and follow our hearts.
Saturday, December 12, 2009Sagittarius New Moon, December 16, 2009 The sign of Sagittarius calls us to adventure, to expand our horizons, seek different perspectives and learn something new. It is about journeys, goals, philosophies, teaching and higher learning, as well as storytelling and cosmic law. After the re-birth out of the depths of Scorpio, Sagittarius offers us the possibilities of open vistas, penetrating insight and deep meaning in our lives.
Wednesday, March 26, 2014The Cosmic Story: Aries New Moon 2014 The Aries New Moon really marks the beginning of the astrological year. And this New Moon is potent! It falls within the web of the Pluto/Uranus square that is turning into a cardinal grand cross this month--a cosmic call for change. And it especially affects America's 4th of July chart, landing on the chart's Sun and Saturn. We have to change the way we see ourselves. Let's hope we do it peacefully.
Thursday, October 20, 2011Scorpio New Moon, October 26, 2011 With this Scorpio New Moon, we enter the land of Death. The death of the year begins now, at Samhain/Halloween, as the darkness grows even deeper in the 6 weeks before the Light's return at Winter Solstice. Our western culture has made death something to be feared, and so we do not welcome it in any form. If we are strong enough to face our deaths, then we will get through the Scorpio initiation of death and rebirth.
Tuesday, June 24, 2014The Cosmic Story: Cancer New Moon 2014 We're entering the 'lazy days of summer' now with the Sun in the sign of Cancer. It's a water sign, so head to your nearest beach and remember what it felt like to float through life in the womb, safe and secure. The Cancer New Moon takes us back to that womb so we can rebirth our emotional body for the coming year.
Sunday, January 30, 2011Aquarius New Moon, February 2-3, 2011 Aquarius is concerned with collective consciousness and where we are headed - to the future. It is a fixed air sign, drawing our focus to ideals and the Divine Mind, helping us think outside the box for new possibilities. The Water Bearer is pouring out the waters of the Collective Unconscious, offering us a new connection to the archetypal energies that make us human.
