Mercury conjunct Pluto square Uranus

I hate to play the part of oldman Saturn and be the holiday partypooper but i feel i should put this out there that in Astrology Mercury represents something moving from one point to another, so your car, traveling, information, thoughts, communication, etc all fit into that category and the next 24 hrs transit Mercury is making an annual hard alignment with two very powerful forces that are facing off right now so its very very likely a lot of people will be facing something powerful and intense the next 24hrs or so. Be extra cautious when out, and drive very careful. Also intense information can come in via any form of communication. If you are traveling make sure your car is checked out first, things can break. Also communication, transportation, information, news, etc all look kind of destructive the next 24 hrs with possible surprises. Hate to say it, but just be aware of your surroundings when out and about. I hope i'm wrong but regardless the mental energy will be very intense and unstable.. Still have fun though just be careful and stay conscious. Happy holidays.

Saturn in Sagittarius Dec 23 2014 - 2017

  Saturn finally leaves Scorpio after 2 1/2 years and enters Sagittarius at 8:34 am PST. Dec 23. This is a huge energy change. Saturn has a 30 year cycle so this move into 0 degrees of Sagittarius only happens once every 30 years. When Saturn was in Scorpio we had to face everything hidden confronting shadows of the past facing deep fears. It has been some heavy intense times for the last couple years, no? Well i think with Saturn's change of signs into the Fire element we should all feel some pressure relief on some levels. Saturn is Sagittarius will be demanding a totally different responsibility and commitment out of us for the next 2 1/2 years. Wherever Saturn is we need to get real, serious, commit, work hard and do what we know needs to be done.

Find the house in your chart ruled by Sagittarius. The area of life that corresponds to that house in your chart is where you will be forced to deal with this mature responsible energy. This means we are all starting a new transit. Also see if Saturn is making any aspects to your personal planets, if so those energies are under "get real" transit energy. Yes, that's what a Saturn transit is, it's asking for you to get real about that area of your life and commit to something more. In general though, we are all being asked to take responsibility for our personal beliefs and what big picture views we see the world in. Are your beliefs working for you or against you at this stage of your life? It's possible your current beliefs were formed long ago, maybe even 30 years or so ago when Saturn was last in this area of your life and now it's time to bring those beliefs up to date. Things have changed in the last 30 years, you know much more now and have come a long way. Your Sag house (area of life) needs to mature now.

This transit will also be asking people to slow down on life expansion and restructure it slowly. For some people this can mean a need to commit to greater education. For others they may need to commit to broadcasting, publishing, writing, teaching, public speaking. etc. Other people might find they are called to commit to a higher spiritual path, stabilizing their spiritual beliefs, as they have probably changed in the last 30 years. For everyone this energy could be asking us to get in touch with how we feel about the world we are a part of. Are you for or against the current system? Your philosophical higher mind will be activated with this transit and your opinions need to be grounded in some kind of reality, honoring what you think. 

Saturn in Scorpio had us going into the underworld and pulling out everything hidden; well now Saturn in Sagittarius has us going higher above and beyond confronting personal ideas and conceptions that hold us back from expansion and achievement.  It would be wise to learn something new now, become humble and commit to higher forms of education for yourself no matter how that manifest. We don't all have to go back to school but we are all about to get "Schooled" in some form or another. Is your lack of knowledge on something holding you back in life? Is your faith in yourself or something beyond yourself healthy? Our personal level of enthusiasm and optimism can also be going thru some energy shifts; some grounding effects and so don't be surprised if you find yourself or others questioning you and your stance on life. This Capricorn new moon is all about focusing on commitments and responsibilities, building and stabilizing something new for the long term but first we have to get our higher mind, thoughts, conceptions, ideas about self and life in the right perspective and that's what Saturn will be doing as it transits Sagittarius. 

Again, find your house ruled by Sag and this is where you will be facing some restructuring situations this next couple years. This will be the area of life to commit to and work hard in. Take issues of this house to the next level. Expand your life slowly. Build structure for the long term, when it comes to your perceptions on the big picture and your sense of responsibility Take smart practical risks, nothing crazy or immature. Commit to your future. If you can do all this, you will be on track with your new Saturn transit. 

I hope the info was helpful, let me know if you need more info on the house this is in for you.

Capricorn New Moon/ Winter Solstice - Energy/Season change Dec 21 2014

The astrology is getting very complex the next several days. Venus gets in deep, unexpected attractions and other surprises! Then the Capricorn new moon winter solstice this weekend! After that, Saturn leaves Scorpio! Exciting new beginnings but plan for hardwork!
Many different aspects are all tied into something bigger the next few days. The main action starts Dec 20 Saturday afternoon Venus is aligning with Pluto while in negative alignment with Uranus. 


This means there is strong extra powerful passionate controlling rebellious feminine energy which is increasing desires of the deep and intense kind, hidden repressed kind and any other kind you can think of. We might have a challenge fulfilling our desires without everything falling apart in the process. Unless we wait, ground, plan, work hard and focus on the long term goal no matter if some sacrifices are necessary or not. The universal attraction will be on transforming money/resources matters along with serious relationships dealing with endings and new beginnings.

This is in the sign Capricorn which brings my attention to Saturn at the last degree and last few minutes of Scorpio preparing to make a huge energy change into Sagittarius for the next 2 1/2 years. But before that happens something very serious has to take place. With Venus conjunct Pluto be careful of playing dirty and using manipulation to get what you want at the same time others can play dirty too, so don't get sucked into drama. No need for that or any kind of manipulation or revenge. Everything happens for a reason, some old commitments need to be settled now, ended or renewed. Some relationship or money surprises too.

It will be easy for everyone to just react on desires without even thinking of consequences so stay aware this Friday and Saturday before the new moon. People have strong needs right now especially for the future and values are transforming too as we start to prepare for how we plan on getting everything we need and want for this next cycle. Venus squares Uranus same time Saturday morning/afternoon and so something unexpected, radical and exciting could happen. The social vibe gets crazy for good or bad. people will be reacting passionately so just tread lightly with others this weekend in the social scene, Spending money unexpectedly can happen too. Some serious relationship business will be or is taking place, perhaps some new wiliness to commit or some kind of person in authority regarding issues with money, resources or love,. Big long lasting impulsive decisions could happen for a lot of people. Full on commitment or breaking free. The middle path will be tough to find. New partnerships that go deeper financially, trusting, committing, being innovative and broad minded to build something old in a new way, stable for the long term but requires great risk, stress, lots of innovation thinking totally outside the box and using the strong energy of revolution and power along with practicality to your advantage. Some deep old money matters could pop up this weekend. or you could find yourself totally turned on and excited by something or someone new. If you already have a partner mix things up this weekend, it's going to be passionate one. The need to break free from other people's control will be extra strong so i wouldn't push people too hard, who knows how they might react.

Whatever happens this weekend really sets a new tone for the next month and beyond as right after this the moon and sun conjoin for a Capricorn new moon Dec 21 right on the winter solstice. This is big time new start energy. Whatever Venus just activated in your house of Capricorn Friday and Saturday will help you know what your new moon intentions on Sunday should be about. You have strong needs right now and this new moon can be the seeds that start the process. It's best to wait until after the new moon is exact Dec 21 535 pm.PDT - thru Dec 22 will be best time to write down your intentions for manifestation later. Then plan, save, work hard and do whatever it takes to make sure you achieve these long term business intentions in which ever way this is manifesting for you personally. Control your revolutionary energy for best results, not too much tho, use it too.

Until the new moon its best not to start anything new, use this next day or so for release, letting go of old plans, outdated desires, people etc. After the new moon when you see the crescent light start to reflect off the moon you'll know its time to start the climb up the rocky mountain of personal achievement. In Capricorn its a slow process so you must have patience and perseverance along with hard work lots of action for two weeks until the full moon exhausts the energy where its no longer supporting your efforts. Work in flow with nature for best results. If you have a new business, work, money or any other material practical needs and desire this Cap new moon will be the best time of the entire year to start any kind of long term project getting an extra boost from the solstice energies.

Saturn will still be in the last few minutes of Scorpio on this new moon which means make plans to finalize all old business that needs to be dealt with. Old money matters, obligations, commitments, etc, these things need a resolution. In order for you to achieve all you desire for the future you must make room by saying goodbye to the past obligations no longer valid. It's just how the universe works, everything is in constant motion of change and this solstice new moon is a change of seasons, so powerful, really one last moon cycle to finalize this last 2 1/2 years of Saturn in Scorpio, the heaviest sign and 2 1/2 out of every 30 years. So a big pressure and weight is about to lift off of us and the future hopes and dreams open up. Saturn will then help us get real about our beliefs and big picture views for the next couple years.It's about getting serious about higher levels of spirituality and faith rather than confronting shadows like this last couple years I'll write about all that later though,

First we have to end this long cycle and start new projects with new plans. Its really a working hard new moon trying to get back control of your values and resources, building long lasting stability from an alternative route. The people that use Uranus and innovate, thinking out side of the box doing something old that is stable and traditional yet is in a totally new way will be the ones to reach the summit this next year. As much as some of us might want to say f' it' and break free, the north node is in Libra, the sign of other people, so we do need other to get where we are going...
Happy winter solstice and blessings on your new moon!

Third quarter moon Dec 14 2014 - Uranus square Pluto

It's third quarter moon time, Stress and tension forces dynamic action, challenges and obstacles appear. Typically known as a crisis in consciousness phase in regards to this full lunar cycle; looking back, needing to make adjustments with how things have turned out; a certain level of acceptance and a wiliness to release what does not work, even if its a little disappointing.

This moon is Virgo, so it's very logical and analytical. This can help us stay grounded as the sun is highlighting big dreams and adventures for the future that might be a little too much. Virgo moon brings us back to earth. Yet, the pull to the adventurous sun is extra powerful right now as it makes a perfect trine aspect to retrograde Jupiter, the largest planet in the solar system and means an easy outlet for some of this 3rd quarter moon tension to be released.  That's the secret, direct and release. Jupiter retro is going to help us go back over our beliefs about our self and make some adjustments. We can actually find the joy and adventure we seek in the outside world through the self and inner world, exploring the higher mind; directing expansive energy into learning new things, using creativity to fulfill a need for expansion and expression of self without having tot totally change our outward practical life.

At the same time we have Uranus and Pluto moving into a 6th out of 7 exact square since 2012. Systems are breaking down, both in society and somewhere in our personal life. Revolution vs tradition; commitment vs freedom. This can really heat people up so random unexpected expressions and situations can come up now. The urge to revolt and do our own thing is strong but we can't totally split or only crisis and destruction will appear so we have to build stability from a grounded logical perspective yet with  authenticity and innovation of Uranus. Authority issues and power struggles are possible but it's also possible a lot of this tension will be on the inside and manifest at a later time. Increase in earthquakes and other destructive events are also possible around this time

So here's the thing; these are the universal energies around us right now regardless if we like it or not but because the universe is mental we can direct our personal universe through our mind and heart letting these energies play out around us without trying to control too much. Circumstances could be intense but how we react to them is everything. Use the positive outlet from sun to Jupiter, exploring the higher mind and future possibilities. Do art or other creative projects that won't totally destroy your life's routine, finding that extra fulfillment you seek through self.

Take this last quarter moon to go within self and release all the troubles of this last few weeks. Prepare self for the upcoming solstice and Capricorn new moon on Dec 21.

Thanks, enjoy ;)

Venus in Capricorn Dec 10 2014

Venus says goodbye to Sagittarius and hello to Capricorn; it's time to stop messing around! Relationship dynamics change, along with personal values attractions, desires, resources and everything else you personally consider sweet and nice, is up for some adjustments next few weeks. In Capricorn the feminine turns all business and mature like, real serious, playing by the rules; her values change, even if so slightly. I can only speak generally here but Venus in Capricorn likes retro, old school delights. She likes to take it slow, She's attracted to achieving something long term which takes time. Commitment and responsibility is attractive for this Venus and the feminine will generally be attracted to the more shy humble gentlemen type and maybe a man in a suit which she might wear too. Vintage becomes sexy again; manners and opening her door is too, might even score you some extra points, for a week or two :)

 With Venus in Capricorn reputation is a serious matter. Don't expect too much gushy lovey stuff, she can be a little rough around the edges. This Venus shows her love in other ways, like bringing home the bacon. The thing is Venus is way ahead of the game as the main power source of the solar system along with Mercury and Ceres are all still back in Sagittarius reflecting the need for traveling, looking forward to holiday  and other fun things, learning about stuff, dreaming about everything jolly, not wanting to be tied down by responsibilities and commitments. Sagittarius needs some space damnit, room to go climb a mountain or something; the freedom to roam, ..and if not that then at least a big screen tv, sports and some beer.

However the universal desire will be on much more than that.

This particular Venus in Capricorn could easily lead people into deeper more serious relationship matters. That's because she will be heading towards Pluto in Capricorns ruled by Saturn which is at the last 2 degrees of deep Scorpio the sign of Pluto, mutual reception here, which means Venus will be in the middle of the two karmic heavy weights that isn't always fun, tho could be. Now we are heading into mob territory. Throw some Virgo in there and she'll have tattoos and some piercings too. ha just kidding, kinda. Dry humor can go a long way with this one. We might start to desire achievement of something. But what? I'm thinking long term relationship transformation! Saturn has been in Scorpio for the last 2 1/2 years, one more month before it leaves and starts transit thru Sagittarius. These last 2 degrees suggest some serious relationship business needs to be taken care of before the end of this year. Commitments of the past. Truly ending this last 2 1/2 years of drama, change, crisis, suspicion, fears and tons of other stuff that came up from the shadows. What needs to be finalized in regards to your money or love matters? Old commitments end, new commitments start. Love might get intense closer she gets to Pluto where all truths of the last year come out, which transforms the relationship for good or bad, depending on the choices of this last cycle. A lot of this could be more about money then love but love will have this tone too, all hidden undercurrents as the Sagittarius energy keeps the jokes rolling in on the surface. until the Capricorn new moon that is right before x-mas then the rest of the energy catches up with Venus and our desires, which will be to take care of business !

I would be careful and responsible with money this year and be prepared for some relationship intensity and because of that love can feel a bit chilly when it comes to intimacy. But knowing all this we can work with it creatively however you see fit. Yesterday the universal desire might have been to go party in Vegas whereas tomorrow might be playing a board game at grandmas, saving your money for a rainy day. Be smart this month take care of financial business that has been lingering in the shadows or holding you up from feeling free. Same could be said for any expired relationships. Don't let holidays energy weigh you down.

Jupiter is retrograde now, the outward expansion of life joy this last several months will slow down now and help us find more joy and faith within, seeking adventure in the mind rather than around the world. Well that's the gist of it.

Let me know if you have any questions. I'll have a new moon post out soon as well. Enjoy the rest of your week.

Uranus square Pluto Dec 14 2014


On December 14 2014 Uranus and Pluto will square each other for the 6th time since 2012 with only one more exact 1st quarter square to come in 2015. Square aspects are when two very different energies are fighting for dominance causing a high amount of dynamic and stressful energy depending on the two energies involved. With these two heavy weights, the tension will be extreme. This sequence of 7 exact squares in this 4 year period from 2012-2015 is very important for the world but requires looking at it thru a big wide perspective to fully understand what the significance is.  I'll try to explain what this process is representing for the earth and everyone on it.

Looking at the full cycle of this event, it's roughly a 139 year cycle that will change the world in every single way. It all started back around October 9 1965 when these two very different planets came together as one. So what is Pluto and Uranus symbolic of? Transit Pluto is symbolic of power and control from outside forces; it's deep, secret, manipulative, dominate; a slow but unstoppable force that destroys and transforms. Transit Uranus is symbolic of rebellion with full revolution. It can strike without warning bringing sudden changes; wants to break free from tradition and innovate, bringing more futuristic capabilities, originality along with individual freedom from repression.

This is why when these two planets made conjunction in the mid 60s we saw the beginning of world revolution but as they begin to separate over the years that revolutionary energy started to decrease so the revolution momentum waned. At least it appeared that way from the short term perspective but now as the year 2012 came into the picture Uranus and Pluto came back into a connection through a hard 90 degree aspect called the 1st quarter square which caused these two energies to fight for dominance as both are trying to work out how to cooperate with each other, giving equal respect . However, with the square, that process doesn't come easy and destructive violent revolution is always the result.

Now we have to factor in the signs involved for better understanding. Pluto is in the sign Capricorn, Uranus is in the sign Aries. Capricorn is the business sign. For the world it's symbolic of each culture's structure; the deep supports and foundation that each generation has built upon. It's symbolic of the establishment, outside authority, institutions, government, law, etc. For the world Aries represents individuality, freedom, war, aggression, dominance, the sward that either works for or against the empire. This is the reason we have been seeing so many world changes that started to increase since 2012 including the Arab spring and occupy movement; revolution that has been spreading from one country to the next and will eventually dominate the United States as well. It's important to remember that with a cycle as long as 139 years these exact dates mean very little as the energies build a few years before and wane a few years after these aspects are exact but will always be the strongest when exact.

Pluto in Capricorn is the establishment trying to maintain control. It's a powerful force that has little regard for the feelings of the people. It's the money, banks, institutions, government, etc, trying to manipulate us into submission, keeping facts hidden. Yet the other side of Pluto in Capricorn is slowly destroying and transforming that very foundation that is clinging to power and changing the way each country runs its business. It will eventually change those powers over the people into something more beneficial for each country and the world as a whole. But before the new can be re birthed the old must be destroyed. If it wasn't for Uranus in this mix, we might all be destroyed and rebirthed into some new form of establishment that wouldn't serve the people any better than the last dictatorship. The western system is a fraud with very little control by the people. We are just stuck in the illusion that we are free because we can so called "vote". Though actually voting has very little true results for the common man and each so called party is actually just a front to keep people distracted from the true meaning of what is taking place behind the scenes that voting has no control over.  Anyway, I won't get into all that right now. Ha. Back to the topic, Uranus is forcing the world to change the way it functions.as people become more conscious and aware of how destructive our lifestyles have been for us and the earth we are part of. Uranus is causing people to break free from outside control living a life of more Independence, freedom, innovation with new green technologies emerging everyday. It's the future vs the past and we need to find a balance between both needs. It's definitely representing war and revolution which should continue for years to come. With this being a 139 year cycle only our future generations will  receive the full benefits of what is transpiring in our time but still we will most likely see great progress to change within the next 20 years with some major events taking place within the next year with this 1st quarter square finalizing.

It's difficult to say what could manifest with this Dec 14th event because Uranus is actually retrograde (appearing to move backwards from the Earth's perspective) which would suggest the revolutionary energy this time around is taking place on an inner level that might not be so easy to see in outward events. Something is and will be transpiring from this event that will manifest in a later date when both Pluto and Uranus are moving direct which points to the final square on May 16 2015 which we could see major world events around that time. I can't say for sure though and it is very possible something shocking and unexpected could happen this month as well, At the very lest an increase in stress and tension as these two planets make a tight aspect.

That's on the world stage but this aspect is also playing out in each individual life manifesting differently based on your own astrology. The area of life (house) that Capricorn and Aries is within your birth chart is where the changes are taking place for your own life. This is all happening around 12-14 degrees Capricorn and Aries so will be extra strong if you have any planets or other personal points at those degrees including any 12-14 degrees of any sign of the zodiac but especially strong for the cardinal signs - Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn. For example if you have your Venus, say 12 degrees Libra, Cancer, Aries or Capricorn then your money, desires, values and relationships will be experiencing some mayor upheaval. If it's your Mars, your passions and expression, anger and aggression will experience the change. If it's your Saturn, your responsibilities and commitments and so on based on the symbology of each planet being affected. It might just stir up the trouble within now and actually manifest later next year. But no promises, the changes could manifest at anytime based on your other transits.

I hope that helps you understand this rare process we are all in. Every single thing in our solar system is being affected by this including you, me and the earth. I trust it's all meant to be, so holding on to the past will only make the process more challenging.

Your personal Astrological Elements and Modes

Everything in the solar system is made up of the five elements - Earth, Air, Fire, Water and Spirit including you and I ranging in different percentages based on the exact day, time and location of our birth. We all have the same amount of spirit which is our connection to the divine. Also we all have different percentages of the modes of expression - Cardinal, Fixed and Mutable energy. The universe is divided up into two principles - Masculine and Feminine which has nothing to do with our gender or sexual  orientation. Out of all the charts I've done I find most people have about the same amount of both masculine and feminine energy but some people are out of balance up to 20-30 percent which just means a life of finding more balance between the two.

Are you curious what your astrological stats are? I am offering a Gemini full moon inexpensive one page stat report on your personal numbers for $10.00 USD offer valid for the next 28 days. The chart below is my personal energies as an example of the basic chart you will receive but with your own numbers and will also include an interpretation of what each element and mode means. For example: my strongest elements are Air and Fire which are both the masculine principles of nature. Air is about the mental plane of knowledge and ideas; it's someone that spends a lot of time in their own mind thinking with a strong need to communicate those thoughts. Air people will literally be attracted to the Air as well as birds, places with wide open views, etc. Air people will find it difficult to slow the mind down and work intuitively such as Earth and Water people because Air is about the intellect and are here to use it. Fire is about someone that wants to penetrate life, not thinking but rather acting on instincts and divine inspiration. They are bold, confident, courageous often finding themselves in dangerous situations of adventure because they act without thinking. They are leaders and masters of creativity. They can be impatient and want what they want right now. Water is about being sensitive and in touch with emotions; compassionate and imaginative; intuitive, healers, nurtures, etc. Earth is people that are conservative, traditional, structured, stable, practical, masters of the physical plane of existence, etc.

Cardinal is people that are here to initiate new experiences all thru life. These people know change well and no matter how bad they might want roots they rarely stay put long enough to grow them. Mutable peeps need to stay flexible and adoptable to whatever the universe sends them whereas Fixed is grounded stable and rooted in one place most of their life, building something for the long term. These are just some basic examples but I will give more information about the different energies in your report.

If you are interested I will need your birthday, exact time of birth and location of birth. Follow the paypal link below to order and then send me an email astrohawk11@gmail.com with your birth information. I will confirm and add you to my list, then email you the report within 3 days of purchase if not sooner. https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=Y455YUDU423E8

Thank you, happy Gemini full moon.

Karmic North and South Nodes (Rahu and Ketu)

I'm so thankful for the self awareness and insights i gain thru the reflection of astrology.  I have so many influences and energies pulling me in different directions that knowing the best path to take would be extremely challenging without this invaluable tool of guidance. It's a very complex spiritual science but when in doubt can be easily broken down into the simple solution of aligning oneself with your karmic nodal axis. The North Node is the future; the direction the universe and your soul wants you to experience more of in this life; whereas the South Node is the energies of your ancient past which feels comfortable staying in, but often brings lack and discontent until balanced with the North Node which is unknown and uncomfortable yet ultimately leads to growth and consciousness expansion along with fulfillment based on your personal soul mission for this life influenced by decisions and karmic events of your past life.


When I place the current astrological transits into my birth chart, two different karmic nodal lines appear. The inside wheel is the line I was born with and will be true all my life whereas the outside wheel shows the current universal karmic nodal axis - what direction to take right now. I always follow both North Nodes. The universe will give you plenty of experiences to do so. But one of the most valuable lessons i've learned is that we must not totally abandon the South Node experiences but rather incorporate and balance with the North. Staying stuck in the past will always lead to discontent yet it does take bravery to follow the unknown North Node route. 
I have some once in a lifetime transits going on in many different areas of life for several years but this full moon has brought the North Node right to my sun; an 18 year cycle which means the universe is pushing me once again to evolve into my main purpose in this life as it did 18 years ago. At the same time Jupiter is t-squaring my natal Nodal karmic axis; a 12 year cycle which means forced expansion of past and future which is Taurus/Scorpio. I know how to do hard physical earth work which i made a lot of money doing in my last life but doesn't give me the same level of pleasure in this life so i've been totally embracing my North Node route which can be summed up to spiritual, emotional and psychological research done while in isolation but because it is the opposite of my past life earth energy, it's left me struggling to integrate myself into the physical life of being human this time around including embracing money, the five senses, pleasure, structure, stability, safety and security - basically lacking everything real world, leaving my life lopsided. Taurus 5th and 6th houses is what i know well and i must not push it away or i'll quickly fade away. Time for me to get my shit together while still giving myself plenty of time to research and study my Scorpio North Node route that dislikes anything superficial; wants commitment and loyalty - "all or nothing" energy. Of course with my sun (purpose) in all that Libra energy 10th and 11th houses i'm no doubt suppose to share that knowledge as a part of my vocation. Yet i need some grounded physical work as well to maintain balance between both. Coming to earth is about embracing everything it is to be human without judging it. Taurus the Resources sign isn't just about making money and experiencing pleasure. Our shell, the earth has given us everything we need already but all depends on what each person values the most. For me i can be a rich man by keeping things simple and embracing all the free resources mother earth has provided without having to pay a damn thing to the empire. 
In conclusion this karmic activation is leading me to balance my karmic axis of past and future in a new way i've never perceived before which will manifest within the next few years at which time i should have finally found long term physical, mental, spiritual and emotional stability while still embracing change and the unknown. At least i'll die trying which could very well be a part of my destiny. 



Gemini Full Moon Dec 6 2014

The Moon is building to full in the sign of dualistic Gemini exact at 4:26am PST Dec 6 Sat morning opposite the Sun in expansive Sagittarius. This is the information axis; what's the unarguable reality right in front of you, here & now vs your big picture ideas & future view that you believe to be true. Both asking for balance between the two. This is a peak time for inner tension in the 28 day lunar cycle. Finding more truth involves incorporating both the mind and inner knowing. In spiritual circles we hear so much about how the mind will always lead us astray; to quiet it and dismiss it only trusting the heart. But that approach is just as off balance as only relying on the mind. We have a mind for a reason, it's not our enemy. Logic and reason can go a long way in bringing balance to our perceptions as long as we accept the information that comes from a source beyond reason. Life is dualistic, no sign knows this more than Gemini; make your peace with both polarities as balance is the way of the divine.

Happy full moon

Sun square Neptune, Venus trine Uranus

We have some interesting astrological aspects building today that might be worth mentioning to make it easier to stay in awareness. First off we have the moon changing signs from all business Capricorn to emotionally detached & chill Aquarius at 11:22am PST which changes the mood and puts the emphasis on Uranus that has a trine aspect from Venus which is a positive easy flowing energy connection between these two planets Yet, at the same time the Sun in Sagittarius is squaring fuzzy Neptune in Pisces which is a not so easy flowing connection between these two planets. So a bit of a mixed bag of treats we get today. However, these two different aspects are connected and before the challenging square becomes exact tonight circumstances and feelings may be extra sweet, that could easily lead us astray. This tells me something unusual and exciting is setting up. Maybe some kind of new attraction surprises you, or perhaps some kind of unusual desire to break free doing something fun and exciting. Whatever it is, freedom and rebelliousness is strong for the feminine energy today as lightning strikes her, igniting passions & desires of some kind, most likely along the lines of dreams, fantasies and adventurers.  Normally I would say this is positive and to embrace it. However right after the Venus/Uranus trine becomes exact the Sun/Neptune square becomes exact around 7-9pm tonight Cal time.

The Sun square Neptune means some kind of illusion is forming, so in general most people are not seeing reality very clear today. Easily swayed by dreams and fantasies which can, and usually does bring disillusionment later. It's easy to lie to self, lie to others or simply be deceived without even trying. This is the kind of energy that can make someone show up that blows your mind, surprises you, excites you, and leads you to temptation that will have negative consequences later. Be extra careful with money as well. Maybe some kind of good deal comes your way and excites you big time, but later find out you were deceived. Or maybe new desires and fantasies arise today about some kind of new adventure that only leads to disappointment. I think you get the idea, it can manifest differently for everyone depending on your own astrology. It's easy to see the good rather than the negative so just try not to fool yourself or others. These unrealistic ideas could be related to something that happened around November 20 when Venus squared Neptune. Some kind of illusion was happening that day most likely connected to relationships and or money, now round two.

I think it's safe to go with the flow and see what transpires today, embracing some fun but be careful tonight try not to set yourself up for disappointment but on the other hand let yourself feel some unusual adventure and excitement as unusual events are bound to happen tonight, and use it to understand what you might really seek in love and money that goes beyond the norm, stepping outside the box and doing things differently. These aspects are best used for imagination, some fun escape into other realities like movies, books, etc, but some could get totally wasted in escape with drugs or drink. The sun is highlighting delusions so just keep that in mind today and try and focus the energy into something fun and playful knowing it might not be real or lead you to anything different. Not everyone will know they are full of shit today so take everything you hear from others lightly and know that they might not be trying to deceive you, yet they are. Not a day for dealing with business or money. It's the kind of energy where you might hook up with someone new then they never call you again...

Stuff like that. It won't last long, Have a great day no matter what.

Good luck friends!

Earthquake Astrology

Large Earthquake risk will be increasing next several weeks as earth pressures build do to Uranus and Pluto moving back into square with each other. Increased tremors already picking up on the west coast of the usa with a peculiar swarm around 50 miles east of Lakeview Oregon which has potential of causing a 5-6m at some point.

I love this kind of stuff and will be writing more blog posts about the correlation between earthquakes and space weather including rare planetary alignments that can cause the ground to shift. Those quakes in Oklahoma are all most likely caused by fracking operations. Why the hell are we allowing that to happen? It will produce a large quake at some point, manmade and lets not forget about all the old predictions that claim increased random earthquakes in unusual places around the globe only becoming stronger and stronger, destabilizing the earth which can also cause more sinkholes to open up. It's time for the people to take back the world not allowing the greed of a few to dictate how we all live anymore.

Oh no, it's the Sagittarius new moon  today, everyone will have an opinion now..

Stay tuned for more, I'm going to try and start making earthquake predictions soon but that's tricky business, won't be easy.

Happy new moon.

Venus into Sagittarius

 Transit Venus is changing signs today from deep dark passionate Scorpio into adventurous Sagittarius 11/16  - 11:04 am PST. This is the feminine energy; universal attraction and desire, as well is symbolic of resources, values and relationships among other keywords. This should effect us all on some level as your house containing Sagittarius will be activated by this transit, bringing more sweetness, beauty and love to this area of your life. (check your chart) but the energy shift will be even stronger if you have a lot of personal planets in Taurus or Libra, especially Taurus rising and Libra rising as Venus is the most important influence for those folks.

Venus has been in the underworld where attraction has been on the deeper darker aspects of life going through a transformation on what we all value at this time, transforming relationships on the way. Looks like Venus has had enough of the drama and darkness, now seeking greater lighter heights in love and experience.  The thing is we still have a good amount of planets in Scorpio so it's only this side of our nature that is escaping into brighter desires. This means,  the new attractions and desires caused by this energy shift won't be actually manifesting for awhile until the Sun moves into Sag as well. Venus is ahead of the game, desiring the future and will be attracted to adventure and play. Venus in Sag needs a certain level of excitement, wanting to take on bigger challenges in love and money with much more optimism and enthusiasm about what new pleasures might be on the way. But those pleasures are not here yet so Venus is on her own exploring new territory, seeking something more than the ordinary.  Our pleasure and love side will be attracted to risk and dreaming about the future, whats around the corner. The fantasies will be strong this next week as Venus squares Neptune, then we have a new moon in Sag coming up as well that will also square Neptune so will be important to be aware of illusions in money and love and what you are seeking more of at this time because disillusionment can follow if you're not careful that what you seek is actually real  and possible. It's cool to work with some of these fantasies that will no doubt arise in you just make sure you keep one foot on the ground.

This transit will also connect to your Leo house where Sagittarius's ruler Jupiter is causing Venus (our feminine side) wanting fun, play, self expression, joy, recreation and much more action and adventure so use this to your advantage and surprise your lover with new thrills and adventures to keep him/her satisfied. 

Sagittarius is also a very spiritual philosophical sign seeking greater knowledge and wisdom, so apply this to Venus and some of us might be attracted to learning some new things that personally interest you. Use your feminine powers for spiritual pursuits and manifestations and then when the Sun follows in the same path, can help bring these new desires to fulfillment, so dream big my friends, just make sure it's mixed with some grounded logic as well, for best results.

Enjoy the energy change!

Mars conjunct Pluto in Capricorn Monday 11 10 2014

Some very intense energy to work with on Monday as the moon enters the sign of Cancer which represents emotional circumstances building an opposition with cold as ice Pluto and Mars making a conjunction in Capricorn. We all have way bigger odds of experiencing some kind of emotional intensity that day and night. Timing could be different from everyone but will be peaking around Monday night 10:40 pm Pacific time. Mars is where the action and passion is, sometimes with aggression and it has to get past Pluto which is a slow mover, so might feel like running into a brick wall. Some kind of powerful force we have to get past in order to archive our long term goals that will bring us more safety and security, It's a new two year cycle for initiating those long term objectives but not just any plan will do. Pluto and Mars are the co-rulers of Scorpio where the Sun, Venus and Saturn are and nothing superficial will make it, taking the easy way out won't cut it this time around so i advise a grounded solid plan of attack. Mercury just slipped back into Scorpio as well, ready to hear and perceive deeper truths so the energy really gets deep and intense after tomorrow. 

This is prime earthquake energy in place for all planes this next week so just keep that in mind so you are not caught off guard. Maybe this won't manifest consciously for everyone but the odds are good that it will, in some form. At the very least some inner conflict between what needs to be done vs what you want to do. Careful of sensitivity as well not everyone is as tough as Capricorn. Fears can come up, power struggles, manipulation and other intense situations but i'm sure you'll have a desire to take care of business. If you are into ritual and energy work Monday night would be prime to tap into this power and focus it on long term objectives. Symbolically, this is about transforming your actions to get where you need to go. get passionate about your deepest truest passions and commit to them!

Hit me up if you need me to look at your astrology. Check your Capricorn and Scorpio houses for where the earthquakes could be.
good luck my friends,

Taurus Full Moon 2014 - bringing balance to practical needs vs desires

The Taurus Moon becomes full today at 2:22 pm PST which is symbolic of grounded practical earth energy that may give us the feeling of stable emotions and needing to fulfill earthy desires despite the tension with opposition that the full moon creates. Opposite the Taurus Moon is the Sun and Venus in passionate Scorpio which is helping illuminate deeper desires that are not so easily understood. What is it that you value the most? This full moon will most likely bring awareness to personal values and desires that are much more elusive in understanding and obtaining but is very possible in fulfilling if willing to bring balance to this polarity of your deep inner world vs what you need on the practical. This is the sexual axis, the resource axis, values axis; that of yours and other peoples so is a peak time for tension in personal relationships where both people's needs, values and desires need to be considered and balanced as one if your life is merged with another. This axis works on a self level as well, highlighting what you value and need the most in your life to keep you going vs what it is your soul desires just to have and experience at this time in your life which will become clear that those needs and desires run much deeper than simply what money can buy.

This full moon has a few positive outlets to release the built up tension if consciously directing the energy into the trine aspect the moon is making with Mars and Pluto in Capricorn and also through the trine aspect the Sun is making to the space body Chiron in Pisces which is symbolic of old wounds that can be healed the next couple weeks through emotional transformation simply by the new awareness the Taurus full moon creates. The illumination brought forth by this full moon has the potential to transform your life by giving you the awareness and motivation to take practical actions through strategy and long term planning that will help fulfill your life on a much deeper level and on the surface level as well, in what you need in practical daily life vs passions and desires. Mars approaching Pluto this weekend is stirring up a lot of powerful intense energy where we might feel a passion to obtain and achieve something in our life that we have been wanting for a while yet the power and control of other people that have different views and opinions might not make that process all that easy and so some power struggles can build the next few days, within the self as well - what you truly desire vs what you truly need. Try not to fight yourself or others but rather acknowledge and accept the hidden truths about what it is you actually want for your life at this time even if it's far from practical but at the same time be willing to acknowledge and accept what others in your life need as well. Accepting self desires are the most important at this time though.

A part of being human is experiencing physical pleasures through the five senses and one of the most magical of those experiences is sexual merging with another soul. We have been programmed with so many lies and half truths about what is right or wrong on those intimate levels, with some people suffering from old sexual wounds and hang-ups so this full moon could be considered a sexual healing moon if willing to look at these issues from a new evolved perspective about the self. and others. Repression of these human desires only leads to more pain and suffering in the long run. I encourage you to explore this sexual healing potential this next couple weeks with self or a partner no matter what your past, deeming the process as sacred and natural part of being human, healing and releasing the wounds of the past for good, or, at least starting down that sexual heading path that will help bring more content to all areas of your life.

Make some changes, go after what you want and need but try not to cut-down others on the way. Happy Taurus full moon, may the illumination bring you fulfillment on all levels.

Scorpio New Moon/Solar Eclipse 2014

Just a heads up: this afternoon brings a big astrological energy shift from social diplomatic graceful Libra to deep intense and private Scorpio as the Sun and Moon come together for a Scorpio New Moon producing a partial Solar Eclipse at 2:56 pm. The Sun and Moon are also conjunct Venus as she changes signs today into Scorpio as well. This should be a noticeable energy shift especially for Taurus Rising and Libra Rising folks but we should all feel it in some form and the eclipse can bring the shadow forth and help the consciousness expand. New Moon's are a time for new beginnings and when conjunct Venus means a new beginning for values, love, money and relationships - setting new intentions that will manifest over the next 6 months, releasing old psychological crap that keeps us stuck in unhealthy relationship patterns. It will be much easier to see and understand our shadow this next few weeks so it's best not to fight the process and accept & release fears that might come up. Libra was the season of coming together with others and now Scorpio season is about taking those relationships and connections to deeper levels, merging with others on emotional and sexual levels as well if you have a new romantic relationship and possibly merging with others financially in other circumstances. Venus in Scorpio won't be attracted to anything superficial and her desires will become strong especially for people ruled by the planet Venus or have a strong Venus, Libra, Scorpio, or Taurus energy in their chart. Mercury is still retrograde in Libra reevaluating some relationships but will turn direct in a couple days and pass over all the thoughts, information and past conversation again for the third and final time before moving into Scorpio next month at which time all the information you'll need to make those important decisions will become clear. The universal mood won't be as social and graceful after today, people will get more real and less willing to accommodate others. The mood turns private and sexual, so set new intentions tonight and tomorrow with all this stuff listed above for best results and try not to fear the deep dark hidden desires of the feminine (Venus in Scorpio).

Grand-Fire-Trine- Full Lunar Eclipse - Aries Full Moon 2014

How is everyone doing these days? There is some complex very dynamic energy in place right now, waxing to the full eclipsed Aries moon on Oct 8 with both challenging and positive energy that we can tap into with this astrological pattern setting up which includes a Grand-Fire-Trine.

Grand-Trines are positive easy flowing energy where the planets involved are working together. This is the positive side of this energy building. However there is some very intense stressful energy as well which includes the Sun squaring Pluto and then opposing Uranus and the full eclipsed moon with Venus following along in the shadows, which by the way is in Libra now. The square and opposition aspects are not so easy but force action to take place. However, with this Grand-Fire-Trine connected there is an outlet for the buildup of tension filled energy if we direct the flow into the trine and not get stuck in the square or opposition aspects on the full moon/eclipse. 

So how do we do that you ask? Take action!

The Grand-Fire-Trine is between Jupiter in Leo, Uranus in Aries and Mars in Sagittarius. This is calling for big time changes because the Fire element is symbolic of creative impulsive action that needs an outlet for the fire, or explosions are possible and likely, metaphorically speaking.  Jupiter in Leo is expansion in self confidence and expression; general expansive joy & creative energy looking to take us to the next level in our life where we incorporate more heart into everything we do - whereas Uranus in Aries is very independent revolutionary energy looking to break us out of the box and try something totally new and exciting full of innovation, uniqueness and rebellion, bringing sudden flashes of insights that can help us break the mold. It's important to remember that Uranus is currently retrograde which means it appears to be moving backwards over territory it already covered once before and so the revolutionary feelings and sudden changes of this last year are now happening on an inner level as well, which changes how we feel about current life events and helps us feel bold and courageous about all the changes taking place, preparing us for future developments that will no doubt come within the next 6 months. Mars in Sagittarius is the general action flow right now looking ahead in what we want to do and create. It's optimistic, adventurous, dangerous, impulsive giving us even more courage and strength in our ideas and beliefs helping us feel the confidence we need to trust in our self and impulses for creative action. The Mars energy is seeking something more than the average experience and risk is the magical ingredient. Combine all these planets and signs together and we got ourselves a little situation here :-)

This tells me that we all need to take a risk this next couple months and really expand past comfort zones. However, a smart well thought out risk is best and I do advise extreme caution with these fire trines - it will be a tricky balance to find but we can do it if in awareness. Step out from what you know well and explore new possibilities. Be bold and adventurous; innovate and create; start living with more heart and passion; accept yourself, fully, feeling good in your own skin and expressing yourself with more confidence than ever before. Just don't take extreme action for the reason of rebellion alone because this energy is not for solo adventures or thumbing your nose up at others.

This is because the Sun, Venus and North Node are all in Libra and this lunar eclipse is on the Aries/Libra axis so this Grand-Fire-Trine is directly related to relationships! Take everything i said about the fire trines and apply that to partnering up with others, doing something totally new and unique with people This could be friendships, romantic, business, anything that involves you and others. The universe is asking us all to create new realities with those folks but it might not be all that easy for us and in-order to create those new realities with other people, the old realities must first die off, or completely change...

That's the nature of this total eclipsed Aries Moon on Oct 8. -It's about release from the past starting something totally new, incorporating your uniqueness, individuality into new partnerships with others. Before that happens though, the Sun squares Pluto this weekend which means the death and rebirth process in some relationships starts before the peak in tension on the full moon. In fact this square means a forced transformation in some relationships. If they don't change for the positive then they might need to die off for good, and i promise you, the universe will see to it, that this will happen.

The Sun in Libra is asking for diplomacy and some gracefulness in the process. It's best if you let go of anger, resentment, jealousy, revenge, etc... anything between you and others that is negative energy will not be supported right now and will make the changes you need even more difficult. You might have to let some pride and ego go but some power struggles are likely as the energy shifts. Be smart in your thinking and actions, not letting this grand-fire-trine get you carried away on impulse but don't totally fight your impulses either. You need others now, and others need you but the eclipse can bring some unexpected changes to your life and it's important not to fight this process, but rather - release and change with the energy. What was previously hidden can come up now, and your shadow might be reveled to yourself and others. What's been holding you back all this time? You might just find out with the two eclipses this month. Libra helps with more objectivity.

Right now the Moon which represents the universal emotional level and daily circumstances is in Aquarius sending positive energy to the Libra Sun and Venus, allowing for some detachment and good social opportunities, helping us think and feel more about others than just our self. The energy gets more intense late tonight into tomorrow as the Sun squares Pluto so expect some very dynamic social energy this weekend with likely changes. Then on Sunday the Moon enters Pisces and the mood turns a bit sensitive and dreamy. where Sunday night we might feel frustrations over current circumstances from the weekend. Tues the Moon enters Aries and starts the build up to the fully eclipsed moon in the early hours of Wednesday morning bringing the mood change to our own needs vs the needs of others. For people in the states, this full moon/eclipse will be connected to Tues night, not Wednesday night because it happens at 3:50 am PDT Wed morning Oct 8...

Every full moon is about finding more balance in our life especially for relationships but this eclipse will pack an extra punch - prepare yourselves for some surprises and major releases.  Also Mercury is going retro so this next month is a time for reevaluating important decisions with you and others so don't feel like you have to make any concrete decisions overnight unless the universe forces you to act suddenly but all will become more clear into Nov so try and keep the faith that all is as it should be and the timing will be perfect. On the other hand, don't be afraid to take the fire action i spoke about above just because Mercury is retro. It all depends on each individual and your own situation. Mercury retro could be connected to ideas with other people that have already come into your consciousness and after the changes this month you might just rethink your options again that you have dismissed this last few weeks. Stay open and flexible, graceful and diplomatic for best results, treating others with respect. it takes some maturity. Like i said, it's all very complex and dynamic but also very exciting.

Mercury into Scorpio Sep 27 2014

Mercury just temporarily changed signs from Libra to Scorpio  - at the same time is slowing down and will completely stop (from the earth's perspective) in the first few degrees of Scorpio on Oct 4 then slowly retrograde/forward in Libra until Nov 8 making many important aspects along the way. So i interpret this as a universal perception energy shift where in general there might be something we need to find out that's been on our mind, something uncertain, probably in regards to situations with other people or important relationships, and how everything is going to turn out.

with Mercury into the underworld of Scorpio the communication theme turns quiet and stealthy as people's thoughts go inward. Not everything will be said and a lot of people might be preoccupied with a mystery or important business, getting down to the bottom of it so later when Mercury retros back into Libra we will have the answers we need to make those important relationship decisions or making major adjustments in plans.

 Of course this is in general.

We can now easily read between the lines but careful with that as it will be easy for thoughts to turn deep and dark with the focus getting very narrowed as Mercury slows down in the depths of emotional intensity. Most people will be less concerned with causal social grace in conversation, more private with what we are thinking and if we do communicate it will be with more intensity and passion. You might notice this in the general media theme coming up as well.... its easy to obsess on something and or have fears run wild too. Jealously, suspicion, secretiveness, all this can easily happen when unaware, so just a heads up this next week or so... 

The positive side is being able to perceive what is unspoken and discover new truths by incorporating intuition with the logical mind; don't underestimate the power of calculated strategic thinking either if we are open to change how we have been perceiving some important thoughts and situations in our life making real noticeable progress with this process. If you find yourself starting to think on the negative side, check in with your thoughts and see if it feels right with your inner knowing by observing how it makes your body feel. Perhaps if it doesn't feel good it's bullshit; go deep and transform fears. 

This is all interconnected to the eclipses coming up too so all the information you need to make important decisions isn't here yet and some surprises are yet to come which could change everything...

Anyway, there is so much more to say but i'll let you all feel out the rest.. enjoy.

Libra New Moon 2014 - Equinox - Eclipse season

Hi folks, I have some #Astrology info for you. The Sun has entered Libra ushering in the Equinox and initiating a change of season, where right now days and nights are about equal in length. This is very powerful energy where change is taking place for the Earth and I think we can all start to feel that within as well. Not only that but we have a new lunar cycle starting for the next 28 days with the Libra New Moon exact tonight Sep 23 at 11:13 pm PDT - pretty much aligning with this year's Equinox making the energy of change and new beginnings extra potent for us right now for this lunar cycle. To top it off, it's also the start of Eclipse season for the next 6 weeks where our consciousness evolves on some level, particularly where your Libra sign is in your chart which has to do with partnership and other people.

All this change is asking us to find more balance in our life, in many different ways but especially with others. Libra is associated with the other' as relationships rule this sign so Libra needs the reflection of the other to clearly see the self so we can evolve and mature, especially for sun sign Librans but now we are all getting a chance to look into the reflection of others and see if there is better ways at making true meaningful deep connections with them that we have yet to discover probably because of being so wrapped up into our own self and problems.

This Moon cycle might give you the opportunity to evaluate how you do relationships and partnership. Are you fair and balanced in this area of your life or are the scales tipped heavy to one side? The Libra energy will make it easier for us all to find diplomacy bringing more objectivity. Libra has a gift at seeing more than one side of any situation and this will be useful when trying to understand others and where they are coming from. Libra is often associated with grace, music, art, photography, fine taste and a love for beauty so when it comes to our relationships we will want that peaceful and beautiful energy there as well.  

With all this powerful energy for new change this is a great time to set new relationship intentions and how you go about relating to other people in general. Are you always giving into others sacrificing your own needs or are you taking more for your self leaving others out in the cold?  You see what I mean? The possibilities in how you are self-sabotaging your relationships are endless, even if subtle.  I think it's safe to say none of us are perfect at relationships and we can all find better ways to  improve how we connect to other people, especially those important soul relationships we have in our life. It's time to honor the other and by doing that we honor our self which brings more peace and balance into our life.

How long have you been single? Are you ready for long term partnership again, sharing your life with a significant other? I know that can seem scary after a long past of hurt and pain but now is the season of change and hopefully you took that alone time to heal and grow yourself understanding what your soul really does need in partnership. Humans are not meant to be isolated and alone for too long so if you are single this next 6 weeks might just be an awakener for you as the Eclipse brings surprises to your consciousness. Perhaps you are ready but still holding on to the old? We have all made mistakes in the past but it might be time to try again. If so, open yourself up and put yourself out there more as the universe sends you opportunities. 

The same could be said about unhealthy relationships as well. How long do you plan on living in a loveless partnership or not getting all your needs met? Forever? That would suck. Your soul will weaken living like that so perhaps a resolution can be found for those relationships as well. I truly feel it's time for us all to honor the people in our life that have been there and loyal to us and if they are a partner it's time for deep sacred union showing self and the other great respect so something long term can blossom between you two. If your partner can't meet you on that level, then maybe it's time for a change. The universe is on your side, if you are willing to make the needed changes in how you relate and connect to other people, you just might experience other people relating to you with more harmony as well. A big part of that is improving what we can about our self but also accepting what is authentic about our self and honoring that; accepting the authentic self in others as well, not asking them to change something they can't. It's complicated but this Libra energy will help us find the balance.

The scales theme is not just isolated to you and other people but anywhere in your life that feels out of balance - within or without and how you go about relating to almost anything on any level. It's the season of balance so adding or taking away from whatever in your life that is lopsided will bring more harmony and greatly improve your situation if you put conscious effort into it.  

Now the other big thing happening is Pluto Is now moving forward again after moving backwards (retrograde)  for months. Transit Pluto is symbolic of power and transformation. Because Pluto has been retrograde for so long this energy shift forward is very powerful adding to these big energies of change this cycle. Pluto was transforming us all on deep inner levels that might have been subtle but now as it slowly moves forward that transformation will come to our outer life as well over the next several months. This means another round of real change is soon on the way in the world and in our personal life. Pluto is restructuring your life and support systems particularly where you have Capricorn in your birth chart. It's a very slow process but should start to see more external changes soon. It's best to let go and allow these needed changes to comes even if they seem harsh in the moment and because Pluto went forward right with this New Moon a lot of these changes could be about relationships too. Try and let go of control when you feel the need arise, letting it all play out on its own. See how that works this time. Just stop fighting what is, and go with it. I promise you'll save energy and feel better but i won't lie, you have to have faith that things are working out for your best interest in the long term.

So that's about it but I can't understate the immense power of this energy coming in right now and if you work with it you can really make some big changes in your life. The universe will support you in that process this cycle. Harness the power of change and make it work for you! Find more balance and bring peace into your life.

 The first total lunar Eclipse of the season will be on Oct 8 with the full moon! It's going to be so powerful and full of emotional surprises that brings your consciousness to new levels of understanding! It's sure to be exciting!

So as always if you want to know where all this takes place in your own astrology send me an email and we can talk about reading options. Also feel free to leave comments and questions below.

Thank you.
Enjoy the change.
