I want to describe how certain long term astrological cycles are impacting our consciousness affecting each of us personally and humanity as a whole. It’s a time of revolution altering society on a global scale and we are being prepared for the needed shifts that are stimulating the formation of a new social destiny. But the first thing I want to say is… try not to be discouraged. The trials we encounter are teaching us how to be spiritual in new ways, the ways of the Aquaria

The Third Side “The quality of mercy is not strained. It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven Upon the place beneath.” William Shakespeare Security and challenges to security such as hidden motives and compulsive desires will be brought out in the open during this powerful eclipse period. The sun and moon conjoined in the sign of Cancer emphasize self-preservation and the need to feel safe and contained. Opposing this mother/father combination is the controlling power

“If you want to know what you REALLY wanted to do, look at what you did!” What we manifest in our daily lives is a direct reflection of our deepest needs. This is rather obvious when we begin with self-awareness and a clear intention, apply ourselves diligently and experience an outcome that satisfies our desires. The problem arises when we are not actually aware of our most compelling needs. Often the most dynamic parts of us are motivated by unconscious patterns or imprints

Slow down… and listen to the inner calling that you feel when you are still. What is it saying? Humanity is at a turning point and each of us is being stimulated to make a major change toward the ripening of our true Self. At some level we know this and feel the urge to focus on the disciplines that can help us engage with both our joy and our responsibilities more consciously. Motivated by the need for change in your own life, family, town, state or country at this time in h

Dear Friends of Astrology and the Ageless Wisdom, I begin my travels today to attend the Pre-Conference Esoteric Astrology Workshop reflecting the inspiring theme of the 32nd International Conference of the Seven Ray Institute and University of the Seven Rays – “The Buddha and the Christ: Radiant Wisdom, All-Pervading Love.” The approach in the Esoteric Astrology workshop will be: Finding the Buddha and Christ Potentials in your Astrological chart which will be taught by a di

Lately I’ve been sharing about the effects of retrograde planets and how they distort or introvert or exaggerate the energies we absorb from them. Today feisty Mars approaches contact with fierce and determined Pluto. Pluto stops and turns around (retrogrades) to confront the aggressor, intensifying its resistance to yield. How will this array of powerful forces show up for you? Have you repeatedly been frustrated with a situation that inhibits your success? Is there a person

While Mercury usually retrogrades for 3 ½ weeks Saturn slips into retrograde motion today for almost 5 months until September 6. This influence is asking us to review our accomplishments and note the level of creativity and commitment that we infused into them. Halfhearted work may need to be redone or revised until your passion fulfills its purpose and you really feel good about your achievements. Chiron represents the part of us that is most vulnerable and its journey throu

Today Mercury goes stationary direct at 2:22 am Pacific Time and while that energy directing communication and details orients into forward motion, prepare for the new Moon in Aries at 6:58 pm to propel things forward. These influences are energized by Uranus to ignite fresh ideas and insights; those ah-ha moments that turn into lightning bolts of inspiration and confidence. Be yourself today, be bold and put things in motion, instead of procrastinating. Take advantage of thi

Astrology is amazing! You don’t need to be an Astrologer to recognize how you feel and the general mood of people around you. Yet, knowing about some of the celestial influences ahead of time gives you the opportunity to make the most of opportunities and side step the challenges. For instance, the Moon and Neptune merge in dreamy Pisces at the end of the workday shifting your attention to mystery and romance. The dynamic connection to Venus activates sensuality and desire so

You may experience intense feelings today that motivate you to make some significant changes. These energies might affect you deeply, shifting your perspective about your relationships and catalyzing a profound realization about your true needs and desires. You feel the power! So even if you usually resist change, you may make some radical choices that expand the current boundaries of your life. Spirituality is featured offering themes of regeneration and renewal.
