Astrological Musings

As you know if you follow my Facebook page, over the past week or so we have seen a challenging alignment of these three planets which culminated on December 13th.  Mercury just turned retrograde on the 10th so it is still moving pretty slowly, and will remain within five degrees of Pluto for the next few…

After a short hiatus, the Musings on Astrology radio show will be back tonight for a special 90-minute show on the Astrology of 2011.  What’s in store for us next year?  How will it affect us personally? Tuesday December 14th, 7 pm Eastern/4 pm Pacific. To listen, click the link below at the appointed time…

Brrrr!!!!!!!!  If you can stay up past midnight tonight and tomorrow, you may enjoy the treat of hundreds of meteors falling before your very eyes. The Geminids appear to emanate from the constellation of Gemini, but evidently originate from an asteroid called 3200 Phaethon and has been streaming for over 1,000 years, according to astronomers.…

We often think of Saturn as the “Celestial Taskmaster,” and grumble about his tests, challenges, delays and disappointments.  But we sometimes forget that he is also the giver of wisdom and the kind of strength that comes through overcoming adversity and difficult situations. Beth Owl’s Daughter wrote a beautiful post about the Gift of Beauty in…

For those of you who miss my radio show, I’ll be on Matthew Currie’s show tonight at 10 pm Eastern/7 pm Pacific.  We’ll be talking about the astrology of 2011, but also about the Wikileaks explosion and what it means for the upcoming Uranus/Pluto square. I think he will also be taking calls and I’ll…

The Mountain Astrologer magazine has been given a time of birth for Julian Assange, head of Wikileaks, from an unidentified source.  They write:  Our source has requested anonymity, which we are respecting. Both Tem and I felt that the circumstances through which we got the information, and some other details, suggest that this is an authentic time.…

This Mercury retrograde period may be more challenging than some, especially during the first week (beginning around now until the 18th of December when Mercury retrogrades back into Sagittarius. Mercury is in Capricorn now, where it wants to organize things and achieve something important.  Capricorn is all about goals and success, and it is not…

I found Diane’s recent post on Saturn and Neptune interesting because I have these two planets conjunct in my chart, straddling my Sun. Diane’s post is entitled “Productive creativity” and she writes, “It takes these two very different planets working together to make the intangible tangible – pragmatic Saturn is the best at harnessing Neptune’s dreams and…

Mars and Uranus are locked in a challenging square at the moment, and even though Mars transits usually last just a day or so the energy of this square is locked into the New Moon chart so the effect will be pronounced over the next few days.  Mars is energy, enthusiasm, motivation, anger and rage…

Astrologers chuckle when we hear people say that Pluto is no longer a planet.  Try telling that to someone going through a gnawingly agonizing Pluto transit!   But ever since Pluto was reclassified (some say “demoted”) a few years ago, a small but very vocal contingent of astronomers is fighting to classify Pluto as a…
