Happy Birthday Aries! (you thought I forgot you? NO. I could never forget you. I am sorry I am late. And Taurus you will be up in the enxt week)).

This year could be  year to be remembered. When the Sun was still Aries, your ruling planet Mars in Sagittarius went Retrograde. Generally speaking unless you are born with a Mars Retrograde, these periods often feel like bad hair days. Explicitly, do you have issues over anger, sex or energy? Do you have hard time initiating a project? Now the time has come to deal with your personal Mars issues.

It will take to the fourth week in August to clear this whole  retrograde. The retrograde begins at 8 degrees Sagittarius and it will go all the way down to 23 Scorpio. By July 1, Mars will be direct but until the third week of August when this planet returns to 8 degrees will the cycle complete..

Sagittarius is a fire sign like yours and encourages you to detach when you feel angry and look at what is motivating it. Root out the cause. Try to remember when you felt the same way when you were young. We rarely triggers at a situation unless it has some symbolic meaning from our childhood. Go back into your childhood to discover when you felt that way before, and what was going on. Look at what happened from the eyes of adult.

You will note you might carry a lot baggage into situations that are similar in feeling. Note that anger is also hurt gone too far or not dealt with. Start expressing your feelings before you explode. These changes could be uncomfortable but ultimately empower you. giving more free choice.

Fatigue or lack of energy can be anger turned inward. Try again to root out these issues.

In any case, this is your time Aries to work through your Martian issues and not be reactive. You will be all the better for the experience. Your particular set issues depends on your chart, the house and sign of your Mars as well as its relationship to the other planets. You might want to check with an astrologer about the above to discover more.

Neptune  is in Pisces. Neptune is an unusual planet. It often  reflects your higher self and all that is great about you on a spiritual and inspirational level.

. It is your dreams and your fantasies. As it is of the mind, you can also find that Neptune adds a fog around you. Neptune here might also encourage you to decide you do not have anger issues!  Neptune also represent addiction anon an even deeper level. How Neptune affects you depends on your chart, but you might vacillate a lot as you try to work any Mars issues you have.

It should be mentioned that also in Sagittarius is Saturn the planet that teaches responsibility. You could be very hard on yourself during this period and not exactly why you feel so down at time. This is a heavy planets(who really wants lessons? ) yet where it is placed it will encourage to study and grow in new ways. Travel might not as fun as it has been. There could be an issue about your in laws, or if you are on your second marriage, some uproar could be occurring.

Some of you will decide to go back to school to get a higher degree or specialize even further in your field.  Relationship also could develop with a foreigner which could be enlightening. You will learn to appreciate different cultures.

A good use of this planet is to  take class or go back to school. Your ability to concentrate becomes far more intense. You frequently can be found reflecting. You also might find it a good time for looking at your opinions and where they came from. Some of them might not be applicable, but you will need to detach in order to see that. A foreigner or someone very different also could enter your life during this period, and teaches you by their very existence about other styles and cultures.

To see how Saturn impacts  you study the weeks around March 25 and August 13.  You might discover if you are a late degree Aries or have late degree Aries planets that you do not feel many changes yet. You will though.

In August, Mars and Saturn will be very close to each degree wise and act on August 23 and 24. This conjunction can be a powerful omen for a project . It is a great day to initiate or complete a long term project. You have the concentration you need ands the self-discipline you need at this time.

Look at this conjunction as: you have a wild mustang which you need to break(Mars). You have been working on it. With the arrival of Saturn there, you finally are able to connect and work with the horse because of your endurance and discipline (Saturn).. Its true power comes out.

For women, this conjunction could ebb change in how they view a man in their life or men in general. But they will be logical and well grounded. Again, there could be a variation here depending on your chart. Your anger issues will be tested as well. You will see what you have learned over the last few months during that period. Woman and Men could experience frustration as they have goals and know what they want but feel as if they are being held back by Saturn and Mars in the same sign.

As an incidental ,successful leaders involved in the military often have this conjunction. They rein in their strength and desire to act to the precise moment. You see the pure power of self-discipline which is the gift of this conjunction.

Neptune in Pisces lives in your 12 house at this point in your life and has been there for several years. You could feel inspired to do some volunteer work and give of yourself on the highest level.-even more than in the past. You also might spend a lot of time confused. You also could discover someone in your life is deceptive. Also be aware of people you meet right now and especially during this planet’s retrograde as they might be on the up and up.

Should you decide to do any personal work, you might not see progress as quickly as you would like because you frequently lose a thought or insight...perhaps you need to  start jotting information down. In fact during this period where your dreams could be very active, jotting down thoughts as you wake could be important.

Jupiter the planet that bestows good fortune but excess at the same time is rolling through the sign Virgo.For you that represents health, exercise, work and routine. What it imply is expansion in one of these areas. Anywhere from your waistline getting a few inches bigger to much more to do in your daily life.

It can also signal a promotion and/or a pay raise. Even if you get sick with this configuration, the odds are with you for a speedy recovery. The condition might seem extreme as it could with Jupiter active. Extremes of all sorts go with this planet.

On May 8 , Jupiter goes direct in Virgo and will chug along in that position until Mid September when it moves into your opposite sign, Libra .During the period afterwards:

If attached, your relationship can only work better with Jupiter present. Your partner or sweetie will be more into an easy going mood and a lot happier than they have been for quite awhile Relating for both of you becomes much happier of an experience.

However in a battle of wills , your sweetie is likely to be the winner as Jupiter is positioned in your marriage house. In general your life is far more mellow and content once Jupiter enters Libra. The world shines on you.You find people very caring,andthey are.

This year from that point in September is a special relationship year if single. You could meet the love of your life. Most certainly you could meet a person who defines your life in many ways. People come along that suit your needs and desires with this transit.

It has to mentioned that Uranus the planet of surprises..has been  in your sign for the last few years and will continue for several more. This planet is travelling  through the second ½ of Aries(April Aries) and they are experiencing what March Arians have.  If you have a March Aries friend or relative and pick up the phone and ask them about this period.

It must be pointed out that everyone experiences this transit differently ..ie what happens to you might not happen to me. Yet the deeper meaning of the transit will come through in any case.

This Jack in the Box planet pops at the most unexpected moments. The purpose of it is to simplify our lives. To remind is what is important in our lives and not. It allows and creates greater freedom and self-expression, especially in the area of your chart where it is natally.

Also where Aquarius is on the cusp of a house, that area will be subject to swift changes. You will feel freer and more in tune with the person you are.

Some people find for instance when it goes through their marriage house. If they are in a bad marriage, it blows-only to being in far better circumstances. If the person is in a good marriage. Events turn around the marriage and the couple once more because of the events reconnect on an even deeper level.

Strap in your seat belt around the following dates: July 29 and Dec. 28, 2016. During the days that surround these dates as well you might get a strong indications as to how Uranus will impact you. Be observant.

Pluto which brings transformation like it or not is in Capricorn squaring your Aries sun  and other Aries planets you might have, It is close in degrees to transiting Uranus, so upsets often have to do with forced growth-which you have been resisting. You cannot and should not say no to Pluto.

Pluto is associated with the legend of the Phoenix where this mythical bird crashes and dies only to come back even more beautiful.

Once more  how it impacts you depends on the placement of Pluto in your natal chart as well as where it is transits. Pluto is in the sign Capricorn which represents government and institutions of all kinds. It has been there since 2008. Look at what has happened in the USA, with the Catholic Church ( we got two Popes!).etc. Times are changing for you too! For Many of you , what you do professionally could change, or you could also make a public commitment to a group ..which you feel ties to and you like what they stand for. No passive behavior here. Aries generally is an activist, and this transit will bring out that quality even more.

Some of you will feel pressured to do something by a boss or someone who has clout over you.  tHE issue could revolve around power and control that you might be dealing with if the above does not feel correct to you.

Keys dates to learn more about you and Pluto are:March 18 and September 25, 2016. Look to the days around those dates to. The impact will be felt most by those born in April or who have some Aries planets above 12 degrees. Pluto also is the God who transports people to the Underworld. You could be dealing with some unsavory people as well.

I apologize for the late date this has appeared. I actually started writing it March 25!

Eclipse alert! Do you think the eclipse March 8 will impact you?

Eclipse alert: I know many of you are concerned about the Solar Eclipse on  March 8 and the Lunar Eclipse on March 23.  I would like to share I use eclipses all the time in my work and they can change your life but there are certain ground rules.

Eclipses are revved up Full Moons and New Moons. That means oppositions and conjunctions to the eclipse degree count and planets at those degrees will be impacted.

If you have an eclipse conjunct a planet within 2 degrees of the eclipse, it will affect that planet and what it rules. The same goes for an opposition within 2 degrees. Everyone else will not experience anything other than a Full Moon or a New Moon type of happening.

Clearly the majority of people will not be involved or feel the eclipse..

The Solar Eclipse on  March 8 is at 18 degrees, nearly 19 degrees Pisces. Only if you have a planet  at 17 to 21 degrees Pisces or Virgo will you feel this eclipse.

The Lunar Eclipse on March 23 is  at 3 degrees Libra. Only if you have planets at 1 degree to 5 degrees Libra or Aries will you feel this eclipse.

There is different timing around these eclipses. A Solar Eclipse takes a Full Year to play out with certain markers. Usually the conclusion is very different than one would think. The same goes for a Lunar eclipse. A

Lunar Eclipse  takes 18 months to play out and has different markers.

Do not panic even if you are within the degrees. Eclipses are Uranian by nature which means the conclusion you might not even dream of at this point.  Please share  or if you have a relevant question, please ask.

Born on a Full Moon? Born on a New Moon? what energizes you? How broad is your vision?

  As much as I had decided that I wanted to blog again, it was the opposition to the Sun at the time that I wrote the first post that  finally triggered me to act , though I have been thinking about my blog a lot. I also wrote Happy Pisces for my site as if it was a blog-so I know it is time!

 Appropriately I will discuss the role of oppositions and conjunctions in our lives. If you know a Full Moon person, they probably will act out demonstrating the true nature of  an opposition, especially during periods  when the sun  or moon are in their sign or the opposite sign. New Moon people will demonstrate the power of a New Moon when the Moon is in their Sun sign. Just watch these people and you will not need to read this blog.
I am a F ull Moon baby  and I last wrote on this blog Sept 19,.Exactly 6 months later when the Sun was in the opposite sign on Feb 19, I  impulsively arrived here. That tension of oppositions for a Full Moon person  generally force action.  Full Moon .. people often are fighting o and ut both sides of an argument within themselves and woe is the person who comes by somehow plays into conflict..in that they represent a one side of the issue.

If you ever hear someone say: I think I should (moral judgment)do this 
but I want to do this (impulsive) but I think (intellectual; rational)I need to do this in order to  greet success, you have run into a person who probably has a strong  opposition in their  chart involving the  issues involve, the Sun and Moon or an opposition to their mercury..their thinking process.


Full Moon people have a tough time in relationships unless they are highly evolved and understand this conflict. Otherwise what generally happens is they project one side of this opposition on their partners and/or love interest. They cannot see past that, but it is coming from them, their vision and style  of relating. 

This type pf projection is a recipe in failure, if the couple cannot recognize it or get past it. All of us no matter what the Moon/Sun relationship  is project onto a partnership or can  only see that which is part of us. Some people will never see their sweeties in their true light. It takes detachment. Much in the same light, no one will criticize another person if they do not have that quality within them. They might not be conscious of it, but they would not think in those terms unless it was part of them.

New Moon people are when the the sun and moon are together in the same sign. New Moon people are extremely creative and can be self-absorbed. They can be so delightful and charming with these two planets together that others tend to yes them. In fact New Moon people are extremely sexy. However this combo has  narrow vision. they can only see life through their Sun and Moon in the same sign. They see life through the perspective of that sign. They have to work to open more vision and insight. Certainly if the other personal planets and well distributed, it helps.

IT is said that people with Full Moon opposition when they are evolved are able to bring the opposition together and see the core togetherness or bottom line core issue of both sides. An evolved New Moon opens up to variations that others see.

One of the best combos  as an aside is a Full Moon person with a New moon person, as the long as the sun/moon combo of one is compatible with the other. Each has a lot to give to the other and can be instrumental in the other party's growth.


As a final comment, good relationships often stem from people with similar or same aspects between their sun and moon. They have the same issues and if the individuals are willing to grow, their relationships proves to be a dynamic force in their personal transformation.

Thank you for reading this-any questions? Give me as much data as possible.

GOOD MORNING! ---Happy Birthday Virgo

 After about a year trying to get into my original blog, I have decided to start a new one though if you enter A DAY IN THE LIFE OF AN ASTROLOGER with my name , the blog comes up.   I really enjoyed blogging  and will get back in the swing of things soon

HAPPY BIRTHDAY VIRGO

Those of you who are into astrology probably have been waiting for this birthday year for a long time, -perhaps roughly as long as 11 years, Those who have not that same knowledge as they read  the above  might be wondering.what..is so special about this year?

Jupiter-a planet associated with good luck has entered your sign. September 2015 is your first full month with Jupiter hugging and kissing you, symbolically speaking. This planet is associate with opportunities and expansion.  In this case you will become your own cheerleader and start to create much more of what you have fantasized about.

There is but one warming with this planet's, if you have your life gobbled up with situations that do not work for you or suit you, you can expect some uproar from Jupiter.

This planet  will tend to blow out what is no longer functional in your life, in order to be able to create more appropriate situations for you. Some of you who have the above happen might already be grumbling about this transit. Do note  how much you keep in your life to prevent you from moving to the next step.

For most of you with Jupiter in your sign, you are like a cat with nine lives, you can do no wrong. Some of you might need to risk to go to the next step . You will know if this is case. You come off far more positively with this transit.. There is but one negative with this transit in your sign…..one cookie counts like 10 cookies! So be careful if you start noticing your waistline expand. You can lose weight on this transit, but it takes some discipline.

Jupiter’s transit is but a year in your sign. On September 10, 2016 Jupiter will move out of your sign. So make the most of this wonderful transit this year. Look to the days around January 8 and May 8. 2016 to get a better sense of how Jupiter might be impact you.

Saturn enter Sept 18, the sign Sagittarius where it will be all year. Saturn is about maturity , responsibility. Whatever house it is in , it shines a light on what needs changing, or what might be more appropriate in that area of your life.

Saturn will enter your fourth house of home and family.

If younger, you could discover you have difficulties relating to one of your parents, or perhaps extra demands are being put on you.

If  you own a  home, you might need to check out some structural matter in the next year. Saturn could impact your home. You need to be vigilant about problems that come up especially if involving the structure of the house.

Iit is a great time NOT to buy a house as it will take longer to get to fruition as an investment and the home will be fraught with some structural issues. You also could be very depressed there.

When Saturn is in this house, it could be more difficult to sell your home.

Saturn also  is associated with work, and encourages in this position a home based business. It will take  hard  work to launch it but with diligence it most likely will succeed. .

Saturn also involves older people and responsibilities.  You could have an older friend or relative move in that needs extra help. You could also feel more isolated with Saturn in this house.  Often a relationship needs redefinition with this transit.  You could also find that you are resistant to digging in too deeply to find out why you do certain behaviors as well. At times people get depressed with this transit.

If looking at an early retirement, do not count on it in the next few years. It is also possible you will get a different job if you do retire. Starting retirement with is transit might not be the best decision but it depends on your birth chart.

Often with this transit, if you decide to fulfill its meaning by having a home based business.-which is positive, you can bypass the more negative transits of Saturn. In there comes an an element of free will.

You will direct to a certain extent  Saturn during this transit. You can choose to positively manifest the energy. To make inroads on the meaning of Saturn  to you ; look to the days around March 25 and  August 13, 2016.

URanus has been for several years in the sign Aries.
