The New Moon in Capricorn has a lot of company! The Sun and Moon meet at 21 degrees Capricorn, joining Venus, Mercury and Pluto in the sign. Mars is in Aquarius, the other Saturn-ruled sign, so the emphasis on Saturn here is off the charts. (see Transit Watch – Stellium in Capricorn). There is tremendous focus on Saturn / Capricorn energy in January, 2013. Mercury and Mars will be hard aspect to Saturn, but we’ll also have a large stellium in Capricorn for roughly 10 days between the 9th … [Read more...]
Elsa P: January 3, 2013 – Heat, Pressure and Self Control
January 3, 2013 by
Thursday is tense! Mercury, in the cautious sign of Capricorn, squares Uranus in Aries which is given to impulsive or even reckless action. You may get unexpected (Uranus) news (Mercury) that burdens (Capricorn) you, or you may deliver such news. Mercury-ruled Gemini and Virgo are liable to be agitated. See Transit Watch for more info. By Thursday evening, the Moon gets involved with Mercury and Uranus, as well as Pluto. Expect emotional upheaval and communication may be heated or … [Read more...]
Elsa P, December 13, 2012 – Jump Start, Big Mouths, People Higher Than You!
December 13, 2012 by
Thursday morning starts out with a bang! Expect to be infused by the energy of the new moon in Sagittarius and Uranus turning direct. These combined energies will jump start a lot of people and you may as well be one of them. It's an excellent time to start something new. Friday is interesting. The Moon in Capricorn conjuncts Pluto. While there is nothing comfortable about that, it catches support from Saturn in Scorpio and enjoys a kiss from Jupiter as well. This suggests anyone who … [Read more...]
Elsa P: November 22, 2012 – Lunar Eclipse In Gemini, Mercury Direct, Focus, Dedication and the Wild Card
November 22, 2012 by
Happy Thanksgiving! There are four things to keep an eye on this week: the lunar eclipse in Gemini, Mercury's turning direct, Venus conjunct Saturn, and Mars conjunct with Pluto and squaring Uranus. I'll take these one at a time. 1. Mercury turns direct on Monday. If you're waiting to buy or order or sign something, you'll be clear by the time Monday evening rolls around. There is nothing more that needs to be said. This is very straightforward. 2. Venus conjunct … [Read more...]
Elsa P, November 15 – Navigating A Tricky, Demanding Week
November 15, 2012 by

Simultaneously, Uranus in Aries is inconjunct Saturn in Scorpio impelling people to free themselves from psychological burden. These energies combined will embolden people to push forward. Friday, the Moon enters Capricorn. Some will land hard, but most will find the fortitude to stay their course, … [Read more...]
Elsa P. – Solar Eclipse In Scorpio, Persnickety Anger and a Sea Of Lies
November 8, 2012 by
There are two things to keep an eye on over the next seven days. First, Neptune turns direct on Saturday as it squares Mercury in retrograde. Second, we have Saturday's solar eclipse in Scorpio to look at. These events will dominate the week. Eclipses scare people. They're sexy, especially when they take place in Scorpio. The Sun and Moon receive no hard aspects, so while the eclipse is potent, it's also clean. The house in your chart where the eclipse lands will be infused with pure, … [Read more...]
Elsa Elsa – Speaking Of That Pit In Your Stomach…
October 18, 2012 by
OCTOBER 18, 2012: Heading into the weekend, there is a lot emphasis on Mercury and Jupiter. Expect to see people running around, doing a lot of communicating and/or pontificating. This energy can't be judged. This is how information is spread but with Mars in Sagittarius opposing Jupiter in Gemini, and these bodies both squaring Venus in Virgo, 'discernment is key'. People are still talking on Saturday, but many will feel an undertow as the Moon in Capricorn conjuncts Pluto and … [Read more...]
New Moon in Libra 10-11-12, Lull In The Action Offers A Powerful Opportunity, Elsa P
October 11, 2012 by
We have a mild week on tap, with the potential for deep healing thanks to a combination of influences. People will be surprisingly generous as recent tensions fade. With an emphasis on Gemini, Virgo and Scorpio this week, the lull in the action offers a powerful opportunity to align your mind with your gut. Think deeply. Try to establish a connection between your intellect and your subconscious so that you may better understand that which is primal inside of you. There's your … [Read more...]
Elsa, Navigating the Full Moon in Aries, Venus Square Mars and a Cardinal T-Square
September 27, 2012 by
This will be one of the most dynamic and challenging weeks we've seen this year. This week is full of anger and strife. We're two t-squares and a poorly aspected, explosive full moon in Aries. It makes sense you be armed with a plan so that's what I'll offer. Conflict will erupt when you least expect it and the fighting will be intense. People shoot to kill under a sky like this so don't go around writing checks your ass can't cash. Don't assume you're the hottest head around, … [Read more...]
Elsa P: Sept 20 – Cardinal T, Mental Anguish, Anger, Egos Un-leashed
September 20, 2012 by
There will no shortage of strife and stress and pressure during this very eventful week. People complain when they feel this letter is "negative" but I feel this letter is like the weather report and forewarned is forearmed. We have two cardinal T-squares to contend with this week, first one and then the other. We also have to deal with an intense and dramatic T-square between Venus and Mars. The first T-Square involves Mercury, Uranus and Pluto. This will create 'mental stress' … [Read more...]
New Moon in Virgo, Cardinal T-Square, Pluto Direct – Sept 13, 2012
September 13, 2012 by
All eyes on Virgo, as we head towards the powerful new moon in the sign which takes place Saturday evening in the US. This energy is exceptionally pure. The New Moon takes place on September 15th at 23 degrees Virgo, conjunct Mercury, ruler of Virgo. That’s it. There are no other aspects. There is nothing to add or subtract or alter this energy which makes it remarkable in it’s purity. Take advantage of this by setting an intention in the Virgo realm. Fix something, clean … [Read more...]
Elsa P: September 6, 2012: Think, Act, Imagine, Get Along
September 6, 2012 by
Regardless of background noise, most have something going well in their life at this point. If not, this is a good week to whip something into shape as things are more favorable than we've seen in a while. Specifically, Mercury is in its own sign, Virgo, Mars is at home in Scorpio, Neptune is in the sign it rules, Pisces, and Saturn is in exaltation in Libra. You should be able to think (Mercury), act (Mars), imagine (Neptune) and get along with others (Saturn in Libra). That's the … [Read more...]
Elsa P: August 30, 2012 – Full Moon In Pisces, Deep Thinking
August 30, 2012 by
We have a full moon in Pisces early Friday morning in the US. Later Friday evening, Mercury enters Virgo, setting up two camps. On one side we have the Moon, Neptune and Chiron in Pisces. On the other side we'll have the Sun and Mercury in Virgo. I expect this to be stressful for many. Virgo knows, or thinks it knows. Pisces confuses. People feel victimized with the Moon in Pisces. Virgo (Mercury) thinks it's pristine which sets up a hall of mirrors around who is creating problems that … [Read more...]
