No Need to Rush Anything — Forecast for Oct. 22nd – 28th
This week’s headline items: the Sun changes signs from Libra to Scorpio on Tuesday morning and the Full Moon in Taurus becomes exact in the early afternoon. On Friday, Jupiter squares the Solar Eclipse degree from Feb.15th, while on Saturday, Mars opposes the Solar Eclipse degree from Aug.11th. Mercury enters its pre-shadow phase on Sunday.
There will be four Moon VoC phases this week: Monday very early morning until 2:58am EDT, Tuesday afternoon (for a little over 20 hours), Friday late morning (for almost 5 hours), and Saturday night/Sunday very early morning (for almost 19 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have two quick announcement:

Now, this week’s Forecast:
Monday (Oct. 22nd):the Moon remains in creative, sensitive Pisces and VoC, until 2:58am EDT. At that time,the Moon moves into pioneering, fast-paced Aries, where it will journey until Wednesday late morning. Life is an adventure, we’re more open to new ideas, and have great enthusiasm for new projects. Patience is certainly not our strong suit at this time, but we can decide quickly, and act immediately.
Our independence and dynamism are important to us right now, so we may find it hard to be disciplined or accept advice at this time; in general, our responses to others tend to be more assertive or even aggressive. If you find your foot tapping, try hitting the gym, or finding other ways to burn off the body’s excess energy.
Monday early morning, a somewhat challenging Sun/Chiron aspect becomes exact at 4:22am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week, Sunday Oct. 21st on, it will remain strong until this Tuesday. This aspect operates more on an internal level. We feel uneasy about something, almost awkward — and we need to make a choice. An inner awareness needs to be developed if we’re to see what needs adjusting.
We may feel an internal dilemma around our ability to get things done — a drop in our self-confidence and self-esteem. This could lead to us “hiding out”… which leaves us feeling strangely guilty… which leads to us saying weird things… and we end up thinking “did I really just say that?”
As best as you can, be kind and compassionate with yourself — forgive yourself for having a human moment — this will support your healing process.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in the following placements: 28-29 degrees of Libra or Pisces or 0 degrees of Scorpio or Aries? If so, you will be more affected by this aspect. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo (the Sun rules of Leo)
Monday afternoon, an opportune Mercury/Pluto aspect becomes exact at 3:14pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week, Saturday evening (Oct. 20th) on, it will remain strong until this Tuesday evening (Oct. 23rd). This aspect is an opportunity to deepen or transform areas of our lives that need it. It’s also an opportunity to do more research, so we can build something meaningful, all while learning about our authentic motivations. Remember: opportunities aren’t on “automatic”… we have to go after them, realize them.

Share about Deep Transformative Experiences – Forecast for Oct. 15th – 21st
This week’s headline items: the first Quarter Moon in Capricorn becomes exact on Tuesday afternoon. There will also be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday early evening (for almost 10 hours), Friday morning (almost 8 hours), and Sunday evening (a little over 7 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement:
Next week’s Forecasting Forum is approaching! If you want to know how the upcoming, big planetary shifts in early November are going to impact you personally (Jupiter moves into Sagittarius, the Moon Nodes move into Cancer/Capricorn), feel free to join us, live or via the video representation — we will apply what’s coming up to our own birth charts. Other than booking a reading with me, this is the maximum level of support I offer — and it’s only $37 for the 90+ minute webinar.
Monday (Oct. 15th):the Moon remains in practical, accomplishment-oriented Capricorn all day. It will journey there until Wednesday very early morning. We tend to be more realistic, serious, cautious; this can support practical endeavors and financial matters.
Our ambition surges and brings with it a need for structure and planning; when you add in the pragmatism this aspect supports, you can see how this could be a very productive time for business and long-term goals. Our reputation becomes very important to us.
As best as you can during this aspect, avoid “should-ing” on yourself. Take the pressure off, perhaps by saying “I am doing the best I can and that’s all I can ever do” 😉
Saturn is the ruler of Capricorn; it is currently transiting through its own sign, making this a great time to take look at your long-term aspirations and anything that you would like to master until the end of 2020. It’s also a great time to take a more serious look at our strategies for self-mastery.
For starters: Do you truly see “what’s so” in your life (as opposed to what you merely wish it to be, or what you would like it to be, or where you see yourself going, etc)? What is actually so right now? Once you have a handle on where “A” is, it’s easier to “go from A to B” — whether “B” is self-mastery or standing on the mountaintop.
Since Sunday afternoon (Oct. 14th), this Moon placement started the energetic build up toward the first Quarter Moon (exact Tuesday afternoon).
Monday morning, we have the opportunity to make meaningful connections that could support our long-term goals.
Monday late afternoon, a Mercury/Venus alignment in almost 8 degrees of Scorpiobecomes exact at 4:21pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Oct. 13th on, it will remain strong until this Wednesday (Oct. 17th). This is an excellent time to share about deep transformative or shamanistic experiences, intimate connections with others, financial partnerships, our deeper motivations or our unconscious minds — or anything we feel deeply passionate about — and also about any teaching endeavors connected to those areas.
This alignment supports communicating from a deeply passionate heart — and in fact, it becomes essential to connect to people with whom we feel a strong affinity. We wish to form those connections in a spirit of harmony, emotional honesty, and equality. In fact, we tend generally to have a strong sense of fairness at this time — and want to be around people who share this passion.
We also thoroughly enjoy the written and spoken word — literature, wordplay, puns, moving conversations — especially when these words speak of something deep (or psychologically intriguing).

A Strong Scorpio Flavor — Forecast for Oct. 8th – 14th
This week’s headline items: the New Moon in Libra becomes exact late on Monday late evening, Mars ends its Shadow phase and Mercury changes signs from Libra to Scorpio on Tuesday; Pluto’s Station ends on Friday, and on Sunday, Venus ends hers.
Good times to start taking action on your New Moon Intentions are Saturday during the day or Sunday late afternoon (as always, all times in this forecast correspond to the Eastern US time zone).
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday early morning (for a little over 19 hours), Thursday evening (for a little over 10.5 hours), and Saturday late evening (for a little over 18 hours).
Now, this week’s Forecast:
Monday (Oct. 8th):the Moon remains in harmony-loving, balance-seeking Libra all day. It will journey there until 12:09am EDT Tuesday night/Wednesday very early morning. The energy of the Libra Moon helps us be naturally courteous and diplomatic; we are more polite at this time, as we seek the approval of others.
We very much want to maintain equal, fair relationships at this time; we are therefore open to compromise and negotiation. These next few days are likewise a great time for mediation — but our need for peace and accompanying aversion to direct conflict could pull us to “yes” more easily than we might like.
We may also be able to see both sides of the equation so well that we can’t make decisions. As best as you can, find an inner balance with this and communicate what needs to be said with grace and charm — even if it’s “No” 😉 One last quick note: this is also a great time for anything to do with visual arts.
Monday late evening (11:47pm EDT): the Moon aligns with the Sun in almost 16 degrees of Libra, beginning a new Moon cycle.
The New Moon is an introverted time — we go within to learn what we wish to align ourselves with for the next 28 days. With the New Moon in harmony-loving, balance-seeking Libra, this will likely be win-win situations, fair exchanges, harmony in relationships and our general environment. Check out my New Moon video to learn more about this.
That said, we need to acknowledge that this New Moon has a very Scorpionic flavor to it, due to both the Pluto Station and its square to the New Moon, and due to the Venus’s Station in Scorpio.
More about those details in a moment…. but first, let’s talk about the Libra component…

With her Readings, her coaching and her Soul-Based Astrology Courses she aims to empower and support people in fulfilling their life’s potential and aligning with Soul Purpose.
Join me as I share about several upcoming astrological events:
* New Moon in almost 16º of Libra (exact Oct. 8th at 11:47pm EDT)
* The New Moon squares Pluto in Capricorn and quincunxes Neptune in Pisces
* Pluto is now direct but still exalted in the sky
* Venus (ruler of Libra) is currently in Scorpio, also exalted in the sky, starts her 6-week Retrograde phase on Oct.5th
* Venus in Scorpio trines Neptune in Pisces at the time of the New Moon
Could you give yourself permission to simply observe any self-protective tendencies when they show up?
What if you kept your heart open and your mind soothed, as best as you are able, for the next 28 days?
Do you have an Ascendant (or personal planets) in 14-18 degrees of Libra, Aries, Capricorn or Cancer?
My next MONTHLY FORECASTING FORUM — which is a 90-minute webinar — will be on Wednesday, Oct. 24th at 2pm PDT/5pmEDT/10pm BST (London-time).

Completion or Change — Forecast for Oct. 1st – 7th
This week’s headline items: the last Quarter Moon in Cancer becomes exact on Tuesday early morning, Venus comes to a halt on Friday afternoon — starting her 6-week Retrograde phase — and the Balsamic Moon phase begins on Friday evening.
There will be four Moon VoC phases this week: Monday until 2pm EDT; Wednesday early morning (for a little over 12.5 hours), Friday morning (for almost 12 hours), and Sunday late morning for a little over 11 hours).
One quick announcement, before we get to this week’s forecast:

Now, this week’s Forecast:
Monday (Oct. 1st):the Moon remains in chatty, versatile Gemini and VoCuntil 2:00pm EDT. Until the afternoon, we like to learn, connect and interact as much as possible. “Busy” feels good: connecting online, on the phone, or sharing face-to-face, preferably multi-tasking all the way…
The one thing we can do without is boredom: If our mind is not engaged in some way, we might as well curl up and play dead 🙂 And of course, since we also have a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow.
Monday at 2:00pm EDT, the Moon moves into protective, nurturing Cancer, where it will journey until Wednesday late afternoon. With this Moon placement, we are more sensitive to what people say and therefore our feelings are more easily hurt — so be kind to yourself and others. Self-Care is key for the next two-and-a-half days 😉
Emotional safety is important to us as well; we like connecting to the familiar and we enjoy nurturing ourselves and others — home and family call to us, for instance. Make sure though, that your glass is filled before letting others drink from it, or you might start to feel drained and resentful. This Moon placement also starts the build-up towards the last Quarter Moon (exact Tuesday early morning).
Monday evening: we may experience authoritarian or rigid attitudes, both toward and from others. This could create some tension or oppositional behaviors — so, as best you can, remain flexible and practice self-care, doing your best to take care of your emotional and physical body — that way, you’ll remain able to…

The Roles We Identify With — Forecast for Sept. 24th – 30th
This week’s headline items: the Full Moon in Aries becomes exact on Monday late evening; Venus starts to slow down on Tuesday — preparing for her 6-week Retrograde phase; Chiron re-enters Pisces on Tuesday evening; and Pluto comes to a halt on Sunday late evening — ending its 5-month Retrograde phase.
There will be four Moon VoC phases this week: Monday very early morning (for a little over 17.5 hours), Wednesday morning (for almost 21 hours), Friday early evening (for almost 15 hours), and Sunday late morning (for almost 26.5 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement:
Last chance to sign up for this week’s Forecasting Forum! Live this Thursday, Sept. 27th at 3pm PDT/6pm EDT/11pm BST (London-time). We will talk in more detail about the Venus Station in 9-11º of Scorpio, her Retrograde phase (which starts on Oct. 5th), and the Pluto Station in 18-19º of Capricorn (goes direct on Sept. 30th).
If you want to know how to align yourself with these planetary movements, join me live or sign up for the mp4-video presentation.
Monday (Sept. 24th):the Moon remains in creative, sensitive Pisces until 7:04pm EDT. This Moon placement often finds us more sensitive, intuitive, idealistic and imaginative than normal. We also have a greater capacity for compassion, sympathy and affection for all — but especially for those who suffer or can be regarded as the underdog.
But… that very idealism could also be our downfall at this time: We tend to see the best in everyone and everything, and when reality doesn’t match our idyllic vision, we might feel upset and even victimized by those harsh realities. A way out of this is to channel our idealism into spiritual or creative endeavors.
It’s also a great time for releasing fears — especially the ones based on a sense of separation — and experiencing “oneness”. Feelings tend to flow more freely; as best as you can, let them — in fact, “going with the flow” is the best way to go for the rest of the day.
Monday at 1:26am EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that last for a little over 17.5 hours, until 7:04pm EDT. Use this intuitive time to explore any beliefs connected to past experiences that left you feeling disempowered: How could an optimistic approach towards the past allow for a new perspective?
As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Monday all day until the evening ahead of time.
Monday afternoon,a somewhat challenging Sun/Uranus aspect becomes exact at 3:09pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week Sunday evening (Sept. 23rd) on, it will remain strong until this Tuesday evening (Sept. 25th) . This aspect operates more on an internal level. We feel uneasy about something, almost awkward — and we need to make a choice… so we need to develop inner awareness.
An unexpected turn of events could leave us uneasy or unsettled. How flexible could you be, if you really tried? What needs to be shifted internally, so you can stay open and aligned with your unique, divine values?
Do you have your Ascendent, Career Point (or any personal planets) in 0-3 degrees of Libra or Taurus ? If so, you may be more affected by this aspect. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Aquarius or Leo (the Sun rules Leo; Uranus rules Aquarius)
Monday at 7:04pm EDT, the Moon moves into pioneering, fast-paced Aries, where it will journey until Thursday very early morning; this Moon placement starts the build up towards the Full Moon, exact later in the evening. Life is an adventure, we’re more open to new ideas, and have great enthusiasm for new projects. Patience is certainly not our strong suit at this time, but we can decide quickly, and act immediately.
Our independence and dynamism are important to us right now, so we may find it hard to be disciplined or accept advice at this time; in general, our responses to others tend to be more assertive or even aggressive. If you find your foot tapping, try hitting the gym, or finding other ways to burn off the body’s excess energy.
Monday at 10:52pm EDT, the Sun opposes the Moon in 2 degrees of Aries. The entrance of the Moon into Aries earlier this evening started the energetic build up towards the Full Moon.The Moon in pioneering, fast-paced Aries makes an opposition to the Sun in harmony-loving, balance-seeking Libra.
For this Full Moon, and indeed much of this month, our attention is directed toward creating more balance in our lives and more peace in our world.
The Aries/Libra polarity directs that awareness to the roles we identify with in our various one-on-one relationships — and this Full Moon is thus a call to take action on those roles, perhaps even heal them. In particular, it brings the focus to…

A Greater Capacity for Compassion — Forecast Sept. 17th-23rd
This week’s headline items: Mercury changes signs from Virgo to Libra on Friday late evening; the Pluto Station intensifies on Saturday; and the Sun changes signs from Virgo to Libra on Saturday late evening, marking the Fall Equinox in the Northern Hemisphere.
There will also be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday until 7:07am EDT, Wednesday early afternoon (for a little over 6.5 hours), and Friday early afternoon (for a little over 19 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement:
I have a Facebook live interview coming up, about the upcoming Venus Retrograde phase, on Wednesday, Sept. 26th at 1:30pm PDT/4:30pm EDT/9:30pm BST. I am being interviewed by Sylvia Anais Mouzourou from TheGuidedHealing.com. Save the date! You can join us live or watch the recording after, on my Facebook Fan-page… more details will come in next week’s Forecast.
Now, this week’s Forecast:
Monday (Sept. 17th): the Moon remains in optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius and VoCuntil 7:07am EDT. At that time, the Moon enters into practical, accomplishment-oriented Capricorn, where it will journey until Wednesday evening (Sept. 19th). We tend to be more realistic, serious, cautious; this can support practical endeavors and financial matters.
Our ambition surges and brings with it a need for structure and planning; when you add in the pragmatism this aspect supports, you can see how this could be a very productive time for business and long-term goals. Our reputation becomes very important to us.
As best as you can during this aspect, avoid “should-ing” on yourself. Take the pressure off, perhaps by saying “I am doing the best I can and that’s all I can ever do” 😉
Saturn is the ruler of Capricorn; it is currently transiting through its own sign, making this a great time to take look at your long-term aspirations and anything that you would like to master over the next three years. It’s also a great time to take a more serious look at our strategies for self-mastery.
For starters: Do you truly see “what’s so” in your life (as opposed to what you merely wish it to be, or what you would like it to be, or where you see yourself going, etc)? What is actually so right now? Once you have a handle on where “A” is, it’s easier to “go from A to B” — whether “B” is self-mastery or standing on the mountaintop.
Monday early afternoon, we experience a sense of maturity, and we have a need for making commitments towards ourselves and our long-term goals. For long-term success, focus on projects that require a realistic approach or a solid commitment.
Monday early evening, we have the opportunity to make meaningful connections that could support our long-term goals.

Freedom and Individuality — Forecast for Sept. 10th – 16th
This week’s headline items: Mars reenters Aquarius on Monday evening. There is still time to set our New Moon Intentions for most of Monday, and on Tuesday before 2pm EDT. Jupiter squares the Solar Eclipse degree of Aug.11th on Tuesday early morning. Saturn’s Station phase ends on Thursday, while Mars’ ends on Friday and Pluto’s begins on Sunday. The First Quarter Moon in Sagittarius becomes exact on Sunday evening.
There will be four Moon VoC phases this week: Monday late morning (for 8 minutes), Tuesday evening (for a little over 19 hours), Friday early morning (for almost 16 hours), and Sunday evening (for almost 12 hours).
Monday (Sept. 10th):the Moon remains in detail-oriented, practical Virgountil 11:20am EDT; turning our focus toward the practical and wholesome. We are generous with our time/services and we love to help others. We also have a fondness for science and anything that makes sense in our world — things and knowledge we can apply and use.
Health might come also into focus at this time. We notice the parts that make up the whole; this is a great time to see if our daily routines (eating, work, self-care, etc.) align with our long-term goals.
Monday early morning,a somewhat challenging Venus/Chiron aspect becomes exact at 5:16am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week, Saturday evening on (Sept.8th), it will remain strong until this Tuesday evening. This aspect operates more on an internal level. We may feel uneasy or insecure in our relationships — and be faced with a choice — we must develop an inner awareness if we are to see what needs adjusting.
As you can imagine, this could make social interactions somewhat awkward; as best as you can, connect with kindness towards all (including yourself 🙂
We may also have a hard time making financial decisions that feel satisfactory. As best as you can, bring a good dose of compassion and understanding to yourself and embrace your own humanity as much as possible… and remember: like everything else, this is only temporary 😉
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 0-2 degrees of Scorpio, Aries, or 29 degrees of Libra or Pisces? Or perhaps your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus or Libra (Venus is the ruler of Taurus and Libra)? If so, you will be more affected by this aspect.
Monday at 11:12am EDT, we enter a brief Moon Void of Course (VoC), that last for 8 minutes, until 11:20am EDT. Use this intuitive time to take small steps on projects already underway — or simply take a break and do a set of Sun Salutations or push-ups 😉
As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Monday late morning ahead of time.
Also on Monday, before 11:12am, and after 11:20am EDT, you still have time to set your New Moon Intentions for this month — if you haven’t already done so on Sunday afternoon or evening. If possible, align them with the New Moon energies that I spoke about in my video — feel free to watch it again if you are not sure anymore — click here to watch my video on the New Moon 😉
Monday at 11:20am EDT,the Moon moves into relationship-oriented, harmony-seeking Libra, where it will journey until Wednesday afternoon. The energy of the Libra Moon helps us be naturally courteous and diplomatic; we are more polite at this time, as we seek the approval of others.
We very much want to maintain equal, fair relationships at this time and are therefore open to making compromises and negotiating. These next two days are a great time for mediation — but our need for peace and accompanying aversion to direct conflict could pull us to “yes” more easily than we might like.
We may also be able to see both sides of the equation so well that we can’t make decisions. As best as you can, find an inner balance with this and communicate what needs to be said with grace and charm — even if it’s “No” 😉 One last quick note: this is also a great time for anything to do with visual arts.
Monday at 8:56pm EDT,Mars reenters freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius – due to its retrograde motion this summer, it already spent some time in that sign between May 16th and August 12th. This time it will remain in Aquarius until Nov. 15th. Think back to the time Mars spent in Aquarius earlier this year: What projects have been waiting to move forward? What actions call to you now?
When Mars travels through Aquarius, we enjoy surprising ourselves and others. The tried-and-true methods of getting things done are far too boring for us right now. We are looking for unique and original goals, and we tend to take a more original, forward-thinking view of the world now. What if, when you were least expecting it, you suddenly asked yourself “How could I surprise the “old me” today?” 😉
Mental and intellectual pursuits are important to us now. The Aquarian ideal of equality is strong with this position, so we also place a lot of value in freedom and individuality — our own and that of others. With Mars in this fixed sign, we will definitely need our independence, especially in personal relationships — and we are not easily pushed around. It’s best to give ourselves and others lots of space; if we feel boxed in, we may rebel or act contrary.
In general, we may feel a desire to push our agenda on others — not in an aggressive way, though… more in a creative manner. As best as you can, bring a sense of openness to your approach to people and situations. Be aware of feeling superior to others: if you find yourself thinking that someone is less “special” than you, put your hand over your heart and ask “what would my heart say to this?”
If you have an Aries Sun-sign or Rising-sign, you are going to feel…

Commitment and Maturity — Forecast for Sept. 3rd – 9th
This week’s headline items: Mercury changes signs from Leo to Virgo late Wednesday evening; Saturn comes to a halt on Thursday morning — ending it’s 5-month retrograde phase — and the Balsamic Moon phase begins later that day. Venus changes signs from Libra to Scorpio on Sunday morning, and the New Moon in Virgo becomes exact on Sunday afternoon.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday very early morning (for almost 5.5 hours), Thursday morning (for a little over an hour), and Saturday late morning (for an hour).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement:
If you missed my Forecasting Forum last week…but still would like to learn how these major two planetary shifts are impacting you personally…feel free to watch the mp4-video presentation about the current Saturn and Mars Station phases and their direct motions in relationship to your own Birth Chart… To purchase this 90+ min. webinar, click here.
Star and SuperStar Members: check your email for the link to the mp4-video recording and enjoy watching it! I sent it out on Aug. 28th late at night 😉
Now, this week’s Forecast:
Monday (Sept. 3rd):the Moon remains in chatty, versatile Gemini all day. It will journey there until Tuesday morning. For that period of time, we like to learn, connect and interact as much as possible. “Busy” feels good: connecting online, on the phone, or sharing face-to-face, preferably multi-tasking all the way…
The one thing we can do without is boredom: If our mind is not engaged in some way, we might as well curl up and play dead 🙂
Monday late morning, an opportune Mercury/Venus aspect becomes exact at 8:58am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week, Friday evening (Aug. 31st) on, it will remain strong until Wednesday evening. This aspect gives us the opportunity for more direct and caring connections to others. Due to the Mercury Retrograde phase in August, we are experiencing this aspect for the second time already within the last two weeks.
This gives us a chance to re-address anything that may have come up in regards to our relationships. Think back to Aug. 15th – 21st. Is there anything that was not expressed at that time, that you may want to talk about? Is there anyone you would like to get in touch with?
Through enhanced communication, we have a chance to clear up any misunderstandings. Promises and clarifications may grow from this, particularly in love relationships. It is also an opportune time to make new social contacts. Remember: this is an “opportunity” — those aren’t necessarily handed to us, we have to actively take advantage of them.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career point (or any personal planets) in…

How Deep We Dare to Go — Forecast for Aug. 27th – Sept. 2nd
This week’s headline items: Mars comes to a halt on Monday late morning, ending it’s 2-month retrograde phase. Tuesday afternoon is a great time to start taking actions on our Solar Eclipse Intentions. On Wednesday, Saturn begins to slow down (station), preparing to end its 5-month Retrograde phase, while in the early evening, Mercury moves over the Solar Eclipse degree (18.5º of Leo) for the third time in the last 6.5 week. On Saturday night/Sunday very early morning, the Mercury Shadow phase ends and Saturn’s Station phase intensifies. Late Sunday evening, the last Quarter Moon in Gemini becomes exact and Venus enters her Shadow phase (prior to going retrograde in October).
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday late morning (for a little over 2.5 hours), Thursday evening (for almost 2.5 hours), and Saturday night/Sunday very early morning (for a little over 2 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement:
Last chance to sign up for this week’s Forecasting Forum! Live on Tuesday, August 28th at 2pm PDT/5pm EDT/10pm BST (London-time). We’ll talk about the Mars Station in 28.5º of Capricorn (Mars goes direct on Aug 27th), and the Saturn Station in 2.5º of Capricorn (it goes direct on Sept. 6th).

Now, this week’s Forecast:
Monday (Aug. 27th): the Moon remains in creative, sensitive Pisces all day. It will journey there until Tuesday early afternoon. This Moon placement often finds us more sensitive, intuitive, idealistic and imaginative than normal. We also have a greater capacity for compassion, sympathy, and affection for all — but especially for those who suffer or can be regarded as the underdog.
But… that very idealism could also be our downfall at this time: We tend to see the best in everyone and everything, and when reality doesn’t match our idyllic vision, we might feel upset and even victimized by those harsh realities. A way out of this is to channel our idealism into spiritual or creative endeavors.
It’s also a great time for releasing fears — especially the ones based on a sense of separation — and experiencing “oneness”. Feelings tend to flow more freely; as best as you can, let them — in fact, “going with the flow” is the best way to go for the next couple of days.
Monday late morning, at 10:05am EDT,Mars comes to a halt in 28.5 degrees of Capricorn — changing directions after its 2-month Retrograde phase. We are called to reassess our long-term goals, relationship to freedom, and individual differences from each other — and also to look at what we’ve been doing or actively pursuing since mid-May. What have you discovered since then? What needed a renegotiation or readjustment?
We are now ready to move forward with anything that began between mid-May and late August — and we have plenty of energy to do what needs to be done. Please keep in mind that, even though this planet’s energy is now direct, it will still move slower than usual until Sept. 20th and its energy is therefore exalted. As best as you can, be aware of any tendency toward physical and mental exhaustion.

Taking it One Step at a Time — Forecast for Aug. 20th – 26th
This week’s headline items: the Mars station phase begins to intensify on Monday; Uranus ends it’s station phase late Monday night/Tuesday very early morning; the Sun changes signs from Leo to Virgo late Wednesday night/Thursday very early morning; Mercury ends it’s station phase on Friday, a Grand Earth Trine will be at its strongest on Saturday; on Sunday morning, the Full Moon in Pisces becomes exact — bringing Eclipse Season to a close.
There will also be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday evening (for a little over 4 hours), Thursday late morning (a little over 2.5 hours), and Friday night/Saturday very early morning (almost 25 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement: Join us for next week’s Forecasting Forum! We will cover the Mars and Saturn station phases, as well as what happens when both of these planets in Capricorn start going direct again.
Monday (Aug. 20th):the Moon remains in optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius all day. We’re strongly motivated to explore and learn. We’re not likely to be big fans of routine — diversity and new adventures work best at this time — we’re also physically restless and need to burn that off with activity and physical exercise.
We tend to feel more open, optimistic and inspired — but we also have a high degree of independence — and taking these two influences together, this means we’d rather inspire others to do things our way, as opposed to issuing or obeying orders. Inspiring others could come easier than normal, as we can see the bigger picture, leaving us confident that others will agree with us, once they see what we see.
As best as you can, speak your truth without assuming that everyone is on the same page as you. Improvisation works well for us at this time, as we are spontaneous and love living on the edge — just watch out you aren’t overdoing or overstating things.
Monday at 7:47pm EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that last a little over 4 hours, until 12:00am EDT (Monday night/Tuesday very early morning). Use this intuitive time to enjoy your day as much as you can — you have plenty of energy, so use it to explore something new about life or yourself — have some fun!
As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Monday evening until the very early morning ahead of time.
Also on Monday, the Mars Station intensifies. Mars started to slow down already on Aug. 8th. It will come to a halt on Aug. 27th in 28.5 degrees of Capricorn — ending its 2-month retrograde phase — and will move more slowly for a couple of weeks. Between now and Sept. 3rd, anything connected to Mars’s energy will come into our awareness even more strongly: We are being invited to pay attention to what this planet is trying to communicate to us.
Mars represents our assertiveness, independence and “masculine” energy. It is also associated with new initiatives, going after one’s goals, and with physical actions. With Mars’ energy even more exalted, we are more aware of these things — but are not necessarily able to do anything about any of it yet.
This may bring up impatience, frustration or even outright anger. What’s more, since Mars is in Capricorn right now, we may express this anger towards authority figures, or towards ourselves in regards to our accomplishments or lack thereof… In that case, try taking it one step at a time and bring a mature attitude to the table; this could prove an inspired way to deal with it all. Physical exercise could also be a great way to tap into these energies.
Do your best to slow down, get present, and allow for it all to unfold — because one thing is for sure: you will make progress very soon — it’s just a matter of time, and timing is everything. Ask yourself: What do I become most aware of when I consider my accomplishments? What single action step would take me one step closer towards my goals? What might be possible if I took it one moment at a time, staying very present with “what is”? What would impatience do? What has it done so far?

A Path to Explore Our Deepest Desires — Forecast for Aug. 13th – 19th
This week’s headline items: The best and most potent time to set our Solar Eclipse intentions will be all day Monday and most of Tuesday. Mercury’s station intensifies on Thursday and the planet comes to halt (ending its 3-week retrograde phase) on Saturday night / Sunday very early morning. The first Quarter Moon in Scorpio becomes exact on Saturday early morning and there will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday night/Tuesday very early morning (for a brief 20 minutes), Thursday early morning (for an hour), and Saturday late morning (for a little over 1.5 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement: For this month only you can get a FREE copy of the entire Eclipse webinar by either:
Monday (Aug. 13th): the Moon remains in detail-oriented, practical Virgo all day, it will journey there until Monday night/Tuesday very early morning. We are generous with our time/services and we love to help others. We also have a fondness for science and anything that makes sense in our world — things and knowledge we can apply and use.
Health might come also into focus at this time. We notice the parts that make up the whole; this is a great time to see if our daily routines (eating, work, self-care, etc.) align with our long-term goals.
Monday after 6am EDT, is also the best time to start setting our powerful New Moon/Solar Eclipse Intentions. As mentioned last Saturday, with a Solar Eclipse it is best to wait until 48 hours after the Eclipse was exact before setting any intentions, as the energy of an Eclipse is quite intense, and it’s therefore wise to wait until the energy settles before setting our intentions.
As always, we also want to avoid any Moon void of course (VoC) phases;, this time around that makes the best and most potent time for setting our intentions would be today (Monday) all day; and then again tomorrow (Tuesday) any time after 12:57am EDT.
Make your Intentions powerful — after all, they cover the next five months — and if possible, align them with the Solar Eclipse energies that I spoke about in my last video — you might want to watch it again if you are not sure anymore what they are — click here to watch my video on the Solar Eclipse
If you live in a timezone other than EDT (US East Coast-time), feel free to join my facebook Fanpage or follow me on twitter. I will be posting reminders on Monday and Tuesday throughout the day, as well as Wednesday morning, to let you know when it is time to set your intentions.
Monday night/Tuesday very early morning at 12:37am EDT, we enter a brief Moon Void of Course (VoC), that last for 20 minutes. If you are awake during this intuitive time, use it to take small steps on projects already underway — it’s easier for us to sustain what we have started, and bring a heightened sense of commitment to it all.
As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Monday night/Tuesday very early morning ahead of time.

This week’s headline items: very early on Monday, Mercury makes its second pass over the Solar Eclipse degree (i.e. at 18.5º of Leo). Venus changes signs from Virgo to Libra on Monday evening, Uranus comes to a halt on Tuesday early afternoon, starting its 5-month retrograde phase, Mars starts to slow down again (station) on Wednesday, preparing to end its retrograde phase. The Balsamic Moon phase begins on Wednesday morning, while the Solar Eclipse in Leo becomes exact on Saturday morning. Mercury is also starting to slow down again (station) this week (on Sunday), as it prepares to end its retrograde phase. Mars re-enters Capricorn on Sunday, late evening.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday early morning (for a little over 20 hours), Thursday morning (for 17 hours), and Saturday morning (for 18 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement:
If you missed my Forecasting Forum last week, but want to see how the current Eclipses (and the major shifts they bring) are impacting you personally, check out this 20-min excerpt, and/or purchase the whole 90+ min. webinar here.
Monday (Aug. 6th): the Moon remains in chatty, versatile Gemini all day; it will journey there until Tuesday night. For the next couple of days, we like to learn, connect and interact as much as possible. “Busy” feels good: connecting online, on the phone, or sharing face-to-face, preferably multi-tasking all the way. The one thing we can do without is boredom: If our mind is not engaged in some way, we might as well curl up and play dead 🙂
This Saturday (Aug. 11th), the last of a series of three Eclipses will occur in 18.5 degrees of Leo; on Monday very early morning, around 2:30am EDT, Mercury moves over that same degree for the second time within a 3-week period, due to its retrograde motion (you may recall that the first time it did so was on July 14th; it will reach that same degree again on Aug. 29th).
This might trigger some communications or thought patterns connected to joy, self-expression, fun, or creativity; these will need to be addressed over the next 5 months.
The key here is to heighten awareness of two things: First, how can we receive more specific information around our Soul’s journey and what’s next for us?
Second: what additional information do we need to tap into, so that we can connect more fully to living from a place of joy? What messages are we receiving today that could bring more clarity?
Monday evening,a challenging Sun/Jupiter aspect becomes exact at 7:27pm EDT. We start to feel this aspect build from last Friday evening (Aug. 3rd) on, it will remain strong until Thursday evening (Aug. 9th). This aspect says “stretch and grow!”. There is a feeling of enthusiasm and excitement in the air; it almost seems as if we could move mountains.
Awareness is key: Be alert for undue optimism, that could lead to overextending or over-promising: As best as you can, stay connected to what’s real — avoid exaggerations, especially when it comes to your “feeling body”.
This is a time for collaboration and for coming together — provided we don’t let ourselves get too overwhelmed by those historically-based emotional demons. As best as you can, take it one moment at a time, staying grounded in your heart.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 11-18 degrees of Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius, or Taurus? If so, you will feel this aspect quite strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo or Sagittarius (the Sun rules Leo; Jupiter is the ruler of Sagittarius).
Monday evening, at 7:27pm EDT,Venus changes signs from detail-oriented, practical Virgo to harmony-loving, balance-seeking Libra, where it will journey until Sept. 9th, and then again from Oct. 31st until Dec. 2nd (due to its retrograde phase in October/November). With this placement, we prefer to show kindness, evenhandedness, and a willingness to make our relationships work.
We value our relationships at this time and we prefer entering into equal partnerships. During this time, we can develop an idealized view of what a relationship “should” look like. We do our best to treat others fairly for the next three and a half weeks, seeking the middle ground. We are more likely to appreciate the arts, dance, beauty, entertainment and romance.
Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign inTaurus? If so, you will feel more connected to your inner harmony for the next 4 weeks. Your heart will want to connect to others in an equal setting. If you are aLibraSun- or Rising-sign you are going to have more love and beauty in your life for as long as Venus is in your sign.
Uranus comes to a halt tomorrow (Tuesday). Therefore it will make its presence known for the next three days, this gives us the opportunity to…

Stay Open and Flexible — Forecast for July 30th – Aug. 5th
This week’s headline items: the Uranus station intensifies on Tuesday, the Mercury station ends on Friday, and the last Quarter Moon in Taurus becomes exact on Saturday.
There will also be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday evening (for a little over 12 hours), Thursday late evening (for 17 hours), and Sunday evening (for almost 2 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement:
Last change to sign up for this week’s Forecasting Forum! Please note that we’ll talk about the last two of three Eclipses that we will experience this summer: a Lunar Eclipse in Aquarius (exact on July 27th), and a second Solar Eclipse, this one will be in Leo (exact on Aug. 11th).
Feel free to join us on Aug.1st, orwatch the mp4-video presentation of this live event — Star and SuperStar Members, check your emails for the link to join!
Monday (July 30th): the Moon remains in creative, sensitive Pisces. It will journey there until Wednesday morning. This Moon placement often finds us more sensitive, intuitive, idealistic and imaginative than normal. We also have a greater capacity for compassion, sympathy, and affection for all — but especially for those who suffer or can be regarded as the underdog.
But… that very idealism could also be our downfall at this time: We tend to see the best in everyone and everything, and when reality doesn’t match our idyllic vision, we might feel upset and even victimized by those harsh realities. A way out of this is to channel our idealism into spiritual or creative endeavors.
It’s also a great time for releasing fears — especially the ones based on a sense of separation — and experiencing “oneness”. Feelings tend to flow more freely; as best as you can, let them — in fact, “going with the flow” is the best way to go for today and tomorrow.
Monday late morning, we experience a need for inner adjustments. We feel uneasy or awkward and need to make a choice.
Making this choice demands we develop inner awareness around two very different urges: on the one hand, the desire to be creative, outgoing and self-expressed — and on the other hand, the need to go within and be quiet, so we can hear the subtle voice of our intuition
Monday late evening has a nice feeling of ease and an ability to trust others and connect deeply with them. As best as you can, trust your intuitive sensing right now, allow whatever comes up to be beneficial for you.
Also, tomorrow (Tuesday all day) and Wednesday before 11am EDT, is your last chance to sign up for Wednesday’s FORECASTING FORUM. Please see details above (underneath: Moon VoC phases this week)…

Reclaiming Ourselves — Forecast for July 23rd – 29th
This week’s headline items: Uranus starts to slow down (“station”) on Wednesday, preparing for its yearly retrograde phase — and Mercury comes to a complete halt on Wednesday night/Thursday very early morning, starting its 3-week retrograde phase. A very powerful Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse becomes exact on Friday afternoon.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week, all fairly long: Tuesday (beginning in the early morning and lasting for almost 13.5 hours), Thursday late morning (21 hours), and Sunday morning (14 hours).
Monday (July 23rd):the Moon remains in optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius all day. We’re strongly motivated to explore and learn. We’re not likely to be big fans of routine — diversity and new adventures work best for us at this time — we’re also physically restless and need to burn off that excess energy with activity and physical exercise.
We also tend to feel more open, optimistic and inspired — but we also have a high degree of independence — and taking these two influences together, we’d rather inspire others to do things our way, as opposed to issuing or obeying orders.
Happily, inspiring others likely comes easier than normal, as we can see the bigger picture, leaving us confident that others will agree with us once they see what we see. As best as you can then, speak your truth, without assuming that everyone is on the same page as you.
Improvisation works well for us at this time, as we are spontaneous, and love living on the edge — just watch out you aren’t overdoing or overstating things.
Monday late morning/early afternoon: we feel a need to explore and grow spiritually while also connecting on very specific realistic issues — stretch a little, and see if you can find creative ways to connect on the details whilst honoring your need for the bigger picture. As best as you can, be flexible and patient with yourself and others.
Monday afternoon: we may need to make some adjustments again. As best you can, honor both your need for adventure and exploration of life and your need to go within.
You may also feel a pull between introvert and extrovert, or simply fast and slow. Tune in for a moment and see if you need to take a break or at least slow down a little. As best as you can, be compassionate and kind with yourself.
Tuesday (July 24th): the Moon remains in optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius, until…

Ready To Make Adjustments? — Forecast for July 16th – 22nd
This week’s headline items: there is still time on Monday to set your Solar Eclipse Intentions (until 10:48pm EDT). Chiron’s station ends on Monday and Jupiter’s on Tuesday, while Mercury begins its own station phase on Wednesday (preparing to go retrograde — it will intensify on Sunday). The first Quarter Moon in Libra becomes exact on Thursday — and last but not least the Sun changes signs from Cancer to Leo on Sunday.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday morning (for almost 9 hours), Thursday afternoon (for a little over 5 hours), and Sunday early morning (for almost an hour).

Now, this week’s Forecast:
Monday (July 16th): the Moon remains in detail-oriented, practical Virgo all day; turning our focus toward the practical and wholesome. We are generous with our time/services and we love to help others. We also have a fondness for science and anything that makes sense in our world — things and knowledge we can apply and use.
Health might come also into focus at this time. We notice the parts that make up the whole; this is a great time to see if our daily routines (eating, work, self-care, etc.) align with our long-term goals.
Monday early morning, a somewhat challenging Venus/Mars aspect becomes exact at 3:56am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last Sunday morning (July 15th) on, it will remain strong until this Tuesday morning (July 17th). We feel uneasy about something, sort of awkward; we need to make a choice. We need to develop inner awareness, so we can make adjustments.
This might concern compromising with others. Our enthusiasm might make us impatient or hasty with others. Our values may not be in alignment with those we work with. As best as you can, keep choosing the “better” alternative, adjusting as needed.
When life slows down, or becomes uncomfortable, simplify and be patient. We are changing and growing in ways that we can’t comprehend right now. Stay as open and observant as you can.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 6-8 degrees of Virgo or Aquarius? If so, you will feel this aspect quite strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus, Libra, or Aries (Venus rules Taurus and Libra; Mars rules Aries).
In the late morning,a somewhat challenging Mercury/Pluto aspect becomes exact at 11:24am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last Sunday morning (July 15th) on, it will remain strong until this Tuesday evening. This aspect also operates more on an internal level. We feel uneasy about something, awkward, and need to make a choice — so we need to develop inner awareness.
Our compulsive side may lead us down a path that evades rational understanding. Our judgments — of circumstances, ourselves, others — can be so extreme during this aspect that we can’t seem to make intelligent and consistent progress in our lives for the three days it is in effect.
As best as you can, strive to be more trusting, and less strict with yourself for these three days — and surrender to whatever you are experiencing right now… like everything else, it’s temporary. Flexibility and a playful attitude could be helpful too.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 19-21 degrees of Leo or Capricorn? If so, you will feel this aspect quite strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini, Virgo or Scorpio (Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo; Pluto is the ruler of Scorpio).
Monday; there is still time for you to set your Solar Eclipse Intentions if you haven’t already done so; you have until 10:48pm EDT. Click here to also watch my Solar Eclipse video; it will help you align your intentions with the Eclipse energies.

Also, on Monday, Chiron ends its stationphase and gets back to its normal pace through the sky — but appears to be moving backward through the sky (as seen from Earth — that’s what “retrograde” refers to). We have a chance to do some internal work on any wounding or insecurities around personal identity, physical appearance, or leadership abilities that came up over the last couple of weeks.
