Saturn in Scorpio, Taking Responsibility for the Shadow Side
May 27, 2013 by
Recently my husband and I watched one of those movies that open your mind and affect you deeply. I was struck at one point over how differently we viewed things. This movie was about a shadow figure. This man had been designated as a scapegoat for an entire community. He looked and acted the part. There came a point in the movie where things shifted and the collective shadow was thrown onto a young girl. It was striking because there were some strong male characters in this movie, and … [Read more...]

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.

April 12, 2012 by
The Moon in Capricorn conjuncts Pluto and squares Uranus on Thursday, awakening deep emotion in the collective. Mars will turn direct on Friday which also creates a stir. It's an interesting juxtaposition, feeling our roots as we prepare to spring forward. When Mars does turn direct on Friday, it's impeded by Venus and Neptune. Have you ever gotten in your car and not known exactly where you were going? This is like that. We also have Saturn opposing the Sun in Mars-ruled Aries over the … [Read more...]

What a week coming up! How you fare depends almost entirely on how you get along with Taurus the Bull. How do you feel about people who like themselves? Can you deal with stubbornness?

There are things you can learn from Taurus. Consistency. Steadfastness. Practicality. Are you bored? Too bad. … [Read more...]

February 3, 2011 by
This is an extraordinary week. When life is this complex, I think it's helpful to look at the big picture rather than analyze every detail. It's not that details don't matter because they certainly do. If you wonder about this, just consider the Space Shuttle Challenger that exploded, killing seven people due an O-ring seal. So yes, minutiae matters. But we have a notable situation this week in that we have six planets in the Saturn-ruled signs of Capricorn and Aquarius. This reminds me … [Read more...]
