Venus forms a semi-square Saturn

Mercury forms a trine to Pluto

 Mercury Retrograde in Virgo sextiles Juno in Scorpio

Moon in Taurus

Mercury Retrograde will turn direct this week on the 22nd, YAY to anyone who has been affected by this planetary turnaround. Mercury forming a trine with Pluto makes this  a powerful time for looking both in front of us and behind us to gain a deeper understanding of a matters that may have been playing on our minds, we could gain new insights that finally allows us to see the truth of situations that previously we may not have been able to understand This Mercury trine to Pluto will also boost our ability to concentrate and strategize.

Venus will forms a semi-square with Saturn which leaves us feeling like there is some tension in the air. Some of us may feel out of balance, anxious or uneasy with issues concerned with relationships, feelings, money and love.

As the Moon in Taurus moves through her disseminating phase and before she moves into Gemini tomorrow , it’s a time to think back over the past few weeks what do you need to let go of?  What have you been through? Has there been drama or conflict? If so, now is the time to heal!

Mercury Retrograde sextiles Juno in Scorpio making communication and information clear, allowing you to have great insights especially in regards to relationships and how we perceive our self and others. This week we will get opportunities  to get to the root and truth of situations if we are willing and able to shine light and accept the shadow parts of our self, our world and others.

Hope you have a great day

Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Pisces

Mars in Sagittarius trines retrograde Eris in Aries

The lunar eclipse in Pisces today is marking the midway point of the current lunar cycle eclipse that began with the solar eclipse in Virgo on 1/9/16. With the Virgo-Pisces axis involved in this Lunar Eclipse, it presses us to look more closely at our lives, what needs do we have?, What do we feel is lacking? and want do we to bring into our lives? When this axis is activated  we search for a balance between our material world and our spiritual reality. Virgo energy is all about bring balance in our daily life and routines. Virgo is about bringing order in our physical and general health and learning new too tools and techniques to deal with day to day life. Pisces is the sign that rules the tools that we use to deal with our spiritual selves. So just go with the flow, ride the emotional wave and pay attention to your intuition as it will surely  guide you in the right direction.

The Full Moon lunar eclipse can make our emotions high! It is particularly an emotional day with the lunar eclipse falling in Pisces. Our intuition will be heightened so pay attention to your gut feelings, thoughts, repetitive emotions and images that come to you today and over the next few days as it’ll take a while before the real effects of the eclipse can be seen.

This Lunar Eclipse in Pisces is known to thrust us into a state of heightened awareness. This time can be great to be creative, to be inspired as Pisces flow of emotions and creativity is extraordinary. This Full Moon some of us may move towards feelings of love, or romantic declarations and revelations. Feeling a burst of love for everyone in your life and people you may just meet… and then some of us will be irritable and won’t know exactly why! Another effect of Full Moon eclipse is some people’s common sense is temporarily ” eclipsed” as they walk around in a daze like state and others will experiences a new idealistic side that makes us charge full speed ahead

Mars in Sagittarius trines retrograde Eris in Aries  aligning the fiery warrior planet with his sister planet of chaos and disruption. This could unearth any unprocessed or unaddressed anger and aggression along with the Full Moon which is about releasing what no longer serves us we will find a way to let go off what we need to in order to move forward. This aspect will help us set up boundaries for ourselves and we will learn to say NO..luckily the aspect between the two is harmonious and very passionate, so harness this energy and take charge.

Have a great day and happy Full Moon eclipse

Thursday 15th September

Moon in Pisces

Virgo quincunxes Uranus in Aries.

Mars & Chiron square

Today’s  energies are complicated. Themes of wounding and healing are present today as the desire to grow and learn is strong. We feel an urge to expand through experiences and others today. An oppositional energy between the conscious self and our ego self exist today with the Moon in Pisces. Today  we will have an opportunity to dive deep into emotional wounds and get to the Source and root of them.

With a Mars-Chiron square today some of us can find it challenging to express our inner desires,  bringing up wounds of the past and with fiery Mars some may find it difficult to express anger clearly and directly. Some of us today can become defensive, frustrated, touchy and somewhat resentful!

Virgo quincunxes Uranus in Aries.This can have a surprise element bringing a wild card energy to the day! This can leave some of us feeling a little out of control.The shake up and wake up calls of the day may leave us feeling like we are in the wrong direction.

With a Lunar Eclipse in Pisces occurring tomorrow, emotions are building. This is not a good time for objective reasoning just go with the flow and don’t take things to heart! Full Moons are a time when we release things that no longer serve us, it is an emotional and intense time, a time for romance and relationships.  This Full Moon Lunar Eclipse ask us to look more closely at our life, at our needs, lacks, and wants.

Major energy shifts are happening today and over the next few days each of us will experience individual shifts on a conscious and subconscious level.

Have a great day

Venus in Libra

Mars in Sagittarius

The Moon is in Aquarius most of the day, until 10:23 PM EDT when it enters Pisces

Uranus in Aries

The Moon in Aquarius trines Venus in Libra which is very positive aspect. Uranus in Aries semisextiles Mars in Sagittarius. Mercury retrograde quintextiles the Sun in Virgo. Today we may feel co dependent , which at times can be too much of a good thing especially as you become too focused on other people and on what they may think . Today you may try to please everybody  and make everybody happy, but you know and I know you can’t please the world all the time. Some may feel they are spreading themselves to thin, be aware of that and really think am i putting myself out there too much? or do i care of what people think of me too much? This energy makes us want to give over our time and ourselves and be of service! but ask yourself… Have i given myself? Yes or NO? and have you played your part enough!! Are you putting to much importance in what other people think?

With Venus in loving Libra, we feel like enjoying the company of others, it’s about relaxing and enjoying yourself. Today some may feel like dressing up and going out socializing and some will feel like staying home and snuggling on the couch! The world simply feels like a much nicer place to be in. Mercury Retrograde in Virgo semisextiles Venus in Libra this helps us to align our mind with the heart in peaceful harmonious way!

The Aquarius Moon is supported by Uranus in Aries this morning. We may find it easier  to get along and cooperate with others, this can have beneficial outcomes and positive exchange of ideas.

Have a great day and happy Wednesday

Mercury Retrograde Aligns with the Sun in Virgo

Mercury square Mars

Mercury Retrograde aligns with the Sun in Virgo today, bringing illumination and spark to our thoughts. Today information and ideas will be brought to light, we will have aha moments and new insights. This is a critical time for new ideas so pay attention!

We are at a halfway point in Mercury’s retrograde , well technically. This is due to Mercury passing between the Earth and the Sun at its inferior conjunction, this usually marks the midpoint in its cycle. This Midpoint is a great time for processing recent ideas, events and situations that may of come to light as well as for beginning to look at problems or issues from a new perspective or a better understanding.

Mercury and Mars form a square today . We could too easily found ourselves in disagreement with others, friction and tension could arise as Mars the warrior planet that rules over conflict and anger is squaring with the planet of thoughts, communication and ideas can making it difficult to engage in healthy dialogue and some can find it frustration to express how we feel .There is some feisty energy in the air today so watch what and how we approach others as we may stir up controversy with what we say.

The Moon goes from Capricorn into Aquarius today. Aquarius Moons can bring surprises at any time, Aquarius Moon may make you feel detached at times or inclined toward objectivity in your emotional responses and dealings today .

Have a great day

The Moon in Sagittarius

The Moon will square with Neptune in Pisces and align with Saturn in Sagittarius

The  Moon is in adventurous Sagittarius all day. When the Moon and Sagittarius meet it can   stimulate a desire for more than ordinary daily experiences. We become more upbeat and are attracted to new situations of conquest. We clear away the cobwebs and search for adventure. Tired of the mundane lifestyle,we will require less prompting to lash out and break our normal routine, experiencing life in a fun new way is appealing now.

The Moon will square with Neptune in Pisces and align with Saturn in Sagittarius. This can make people susceptible to moaning and become irritable, as we may be wrestling with practicality and imagination and trying to find balance in our expectations. Saturn may be hovering over the Moon today whispering the potential hazards of her new-found spark for adventures, but remember Saturn  doesn’t really want to stop you going on an adventure. Saturn energy is reminding you to check the details, check your reasons before launching into the unknown. Today is a great day  to mingle with others and enjoy ourselves in the process.

Today  we will find our intuitive messages will be strong and very spot on. This will motivate us to take practical action and help us build more positive harmonious loving life . With Neptune the dreamy planet inspiring us  we are looking at our futures, looking ahead, we are very intelligent in our future prosperity options. Today we will have a laser beam focus , very clear and sharp on what we want for our lives. So think about your future today, think about how you can bring in more love and harmony , how can you reduce drama and negativity.

 

Have a great day

Venus in Libra sextiles Saturn in Sagittarius,

The Moon is in Scorpio

 

The Moon is in the sign of  Scorpio most of the  day until later tonight when it enters Sagittarius. Venus in Libra sextiles Saturn in Sagittarius.

When to Moon is in Scorpio, getting to the bottom of things and focusing is always easier.There can be some insecurity or doubts ticking over in our minds in regards to others or our own feelings and perceptions under this influence but as the Moon enters into Sagittarius at 9:21 PM , it has the ability to pull us out of our shells and inspire us especially along the lines of new visions of the future. We can make improvements  by approaching matters in a structured way and paying attention to traditional way of doing things.

Venus the planet of love, finances and beauty is aligning with Saturn the planet of commitment and discipline and mastery lessons. This alignment is great for those who want to get down and real in their relationships,including financial and business relationships. This planetary interaction also helps  us stabilize our affections along with, bringing our emotions to a mature, realistic place.

A quincunx forms between Venus and Neptune. Neptune is the ruler of dreams, mysteries, illusions and abstract thinking combined with the planet of love, abundance, finance and beauty  can make us become over idealistic.We can be left finding ourselves struggling between wanting to see things realistically and preferring to look the other way ! Seeing what we want and perceive through rose-coloured glasses .

Have a great day

THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO MERCURY RETROGRADE

“ What does Mercury Retrograde mean”

You may have heard your friends say, “Oh, no, Mercury is in retrograde again!” And you may have wondered what in the world are they talking about… I know my best friend gives me that look every time I mention Mercury… Well no more confusion and don’t panic if you don’t know astrology, im no Nostradamus myself but here are a few key facts and a quick rundown on what you need to know to get you through “ Mercury Retrograde”

If you still have no idea what I’m talking about, here we go… As we know planets are always spinning (and if you didn’t than there is a fun team room fact you can share) Retrograde is when a planet “appears” to stop spinning and move backwards. Don’t worry all planets do this, but when Mercury goes retrograde (up to four times a year for about three weeks at a time) us awesome earthlings feel the full, crappy force of it.

Even people whom “don’t believe in astrology” or all that other mumbo jumbo, new age hippie business often believe in the crazy aftershocks of Mercury retrograde. Why is that you may ask?

It’s because Mercury, is said to be the planet that influences communication, logical thinking and travel. So when the planet goes retrograde (backwards in the sky) all things influenced by Mercury go backwards.

So to explain it simply-

Don’t make any important moves when Mercury is retrograde. Nothing will be settled successfully for the future during these periods,so is not a good time to sign any new contracts or even to shake hands on any new agreements. Do not sign a new lease or close on a house during this time. Anyway you will find it nearly impossible to nail down a plan. It’s also highly unreliable to complete important transactions, access accurate information or make big decisions.

When Mercury retrogrades it is notorious for information and communication being scrabbled. Which causes confusion so don’t forget to clarify information and get feedback when communication with others. Miscommunication is rife during retrograde, so make sure you’re expressing your thoughts, ideas and opinions as clearly as possible. You’ll have to work harder to get your point across.

I advise you that it would not be a good times to do anything involving communications, such as launch a magazine, website (which I just realised I did duh!). Also it is also considered poor time to launch any new endeavours, even if they are not related to the communications industries.

And don’t forget verbal agreements are considered the same as written ones.

Here are some do’s and don’ts to get you through this craycray time…

DON’T initiate anything new

DON’T purchase any BIG items

DON’T forget to check the details

DON’T put your life on hold

DO express yourself extra clearly

DO expect travel delays

DO enjoy a bit of down time

DO finish old projects

So how can we  use Mercury retrograde energy during this time?

Clean out your closet “ trim the fat” , the mercury retrograde energy is fantastic for culling out those unwanted items that gather dust in your wardrobe ‘ they say if you haven’t worn it in the last 6 months be merciless and chuck it, chances are you will never wear it! And don’t worry you will have plenty of planters help

Forgive and forget..

Mercury retrograde encourages us ( sometimes as painful and annoyed as ripping a bandaid off an old wound you thought had healed) or in some cases to tie up loose ends, as we all know bitterness looks ugly on people especially if you are holding onto a grudge towards someone else. Bitterness, negative emotions and bad vibes as well all know is like drinking Poison and waiting for the other person to die… USELESS and honestly it’s make you age terribly so my advise.. It’s time to move on remembering you don’t have to forget but forgive, not for them but for your own peace.

Rejuvenate your living space..

It’s always fun giving your home a makeover, and if you have been thinking about redecorating for a while now is the time, tap into the Mercury retrograde energy and go for it. Your home is a reflection of your fabulous self and there is no better feeling than being proud of your home, it’s an instant confidence boost but remember no BIG PURCHASES during Mercury retrograde so plan plan plan, Rearrange your place , spring clean, jump online and get lost on Pinterest planing and getting creative ideas for your dream home. Toss out the old stuff and donate it to charity ( good karma) or sell it online and make extra cash for when you can start buying up big!

Get nostalgic

Mercury retrograde is the best time to step into a time warp, play that old CD from high school, watch movies you loved as a kid , flick through old photos remember all the times, feel like a kid again when everything was magical!

So sit tight guys, Mercury retrograde luckily only last a few weeks, so use this time to do anything that involves “Re” revise old plans and projects, rearrange , redecorate and revisit any personal issues and feelings that happen to come up during this time , it’s an indication it hasn’t been fully healed. And remember this is not a time to start anything new or sign new contracts. Mercury the messenger is having a mini melt down so expect mixed messages, communication brake downs, technology malfunctions and travel hiccups.
