The stellium in Aries (Mars) is in full effect now, squared by Pluto in Capricorn (Saturn), and aspected by Saturn in Scorpio (Mars). Anyway you turn it, we're looking at a Mars / Saturn combination, which known to be CRUEL. This scares people, but in reality, energy is neutral until directed. I explained this here: "Gravel in your guts, and spit in your eye..." To elaborate, an Olympic athlete's training is rigorous and punishing. They endure it voluntarily and it's only sports where … [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: 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...]
Elsa P: April 19, 2012 – Self Esteem And Minds On Fire
April 19, 2012 by
The Sun leaves Aries for Taurus on Thursday, forming a grand trine in Earth with Mars in Virgo and Pluto in Capricorn. Jupiter is also in Taurus and if you don't like the Earth signs, you best hide under the bed through the weekend, because there is more to come. Friday is prelude to the New Moon in Taurus which takes place just after midnight on Saturday morning. If you're out Friday night, I'd be scouting for opportunity. Some think of Taurus as a boring sign. If you're bored by love, … [Read more...]
Elsa P. – Full Moon In Leo, Saturn Retrograde and Piss Off Mommy At Your Own Risk!
February 2, 2012 by
People have been prickly over the last 10 days, thanks to the Venus Mars opposition. This aspect has peaked at this point so you should see tension ease as days pass. Thursday is quirky as the Moon in Gemini trines planets in Aquarius but is simultaneously tweaked by Pluto in Capricorn. You can compare this to enjoying yourself at a party, in spite of nagging doubt! Things improve on Friday under a grand trine in air. In a word - socialize! Saturday things get sticky and Sunday is … [Read more...]
