Healing Compassion — Forecast for Dec. 3rd – 9th
This week’s headline items: the Balsamic Moon phase begins on Monday afternoon; the Neptune Station phase ends on Tuesday; Chiron’s Station phase intensifies on Wednesday; Mercury comes to a halt on Thursday afternoon, ending its 3-week Retrograde phase; the New Moon in Sagittarius becomes exact on Thursday night/Friday very early morning; and Chiron comes to a halt on Sunday early morning, ending its 5-month Retrograde phase.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday early afternoon (for a little over 1.5 hours), Wednesday late afternoon (for almost 5 hours), and Saturday early morning (for 2 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement:
If you missed my Forecasting Forum last week, and still would like to learn how the planetary Station-direct phases in early Dec. are impacting you personally… feel free to watch the mp4-video presentation about the Neptune, Mercury, and Chiron Station direct phase — in relationship to your own Birth Chart… To purchase this 90+ min. webinar, click here, or for a quick preview check out this 20-min excerpt. You can also get this webinar for FREE if you join as a Star Member of my online community by Dec. 9th!
Star and SuperStar Members: check your email for the link to the mp4-video recording and enjoy watching it! I sent it out on Nov. 27th 😉
Now, this week’s Forecast:
Monday (Dec. 3rd): the Moon remains in harmony-loving, balance-seeking Libra until 2:55pm EST. 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 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 1:16pm EST, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that last for a little over 1.5 hours, until 2:55pm EST. Use this intuitive time to examine your one-on-one relationships. Ask yourself: How can I balance my need for connection and collaboration with my desire for freedom and individual self-expression?
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 afternoon ahead of time.
Monday at 2:55pm EST, the Moon moves into passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio, where it will journey until Wednesday late evening. We feel things deeply and have “X-Ray Vision” and “Bullshit-Smelling Abilities” 😉
Emotional authenticity is extremely important to us at this time; anything less than 100% emotional honesty could be perceived as flat-out dishonest. Once we feel safe trusting someone, we want to merge with them, preferably forever… as long as our trust is never betrayed.
The Moon in Scorpio urges us to uncover our own power. This occurs by a process of subtraction — it urges us to let go of whatever disempowers us. It’s thus an excellent time to look at “old” fears, limiting habits or emotional attachments, especially those stemming from past traumas.
Moon in Scorpio tends to run right over ambiguity — it’s “in or out”, “with us or against us”, “love me or leave me”. It can be stormy — a cold winter storm, or a torrid tropical storm of passion, depending on how we “work” the energies 🙂
Manipulation and paranoia are the lower vibrations of this aspect, so best as you are able, be straightforward — act in good faith and assume it in others. Best of all, be truly present to the fluctuations of your feelings — no matter if they’re “polite” or “timely”. Feelings aren’t facts, but they are information — and heeding them will help you embrace all of who you are.
Know thyself — and love thyself — you shall be set free. Remember: Love connects us to the Power within; Fear causes “Force” to show up — and that’s ultimately what disempowers us and others.
Also on Monday afternoon, the Balsamic Moon phase beings when the Moon reaches 0º of Scorpio. This phase lasts until late Friday very early morning when the New Moon in Sagittarius becomes exact (more on that on Friday… In the meantime, feel free to watch my video on the subject). We are being asked to slow down and get quiet, so we can listen to our inner sensing/intuition.
For some of us, this might be a stretch. As best as you can: stay grounded, take a deep breath and exhale any tensions. Rather than starting something brand-new, put all that energy into completing existing projects or processes.
This is also a great time for letting go of whatever no longer serves us. What if you could hear the voice of your inner wisdom? What might it be saying?
Tuesday (Dec 4th): the Moon remains in…

Acceptance of Life, in All its Forms — Forecast Nov. 5th – 11th
This week’s headline items: On Tuesday, Uranus reenters Aries and the Moon Nodes shift from Leo/Aquarius to Cancer/Capricorn. The New Moon in Scorpio becomes exact on Wednesday and the following day, Jupiter changes signs from Scorpio to Sagittarius. The Venus Station phase intensifies on Friday night, while on Saturday, Mercury starts to station, preparing for its retrograde phase. On Sunday, the Sun squares the degree of Aug.11th’s Leo Solar Eclipse and Mars conjuncts the Solar Eclipse degree from the Feb.15th’s Aquarian Eclipse.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday very early morning (for almost 5 hours), Thursday morning (for a little over 8 hours), and Saturday late evening (for 20 minutes)
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement:
Since we have several major planetary shifts happening this week, I encourage you to get the webinar about Jupiter in Sagittarius & the Moon Nodes in Cancer/Capricorn until May 2020 — we talk about these transits in relationship to your own Birth Chart… To purchase this webinar, click here. Before you invest in the whole 110 min. webinar, feel free to watch a 20-min excerpt here.
Now, this week’s Forecast:
Monday (Nov. 5th): the Moon remains in harmony-loving, balance-seeking Libra all day. It will journey there until Tuesday 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, and are therefore open to making compromises and negotiating. The day is 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 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 very early morning: we are invited to make some internal adjustments. We may want to connect with others, but may also need to tune in to our intuitive inner voice. What do you hear when you get really quiet?
Monday early afternoon, we may need to make some adjustments and find creative ways to work with the energies at play: On the one hand we need to collaborate with others and play nice, on the other hand, we feel a deep desire to be authentic and truthful about what we want to build long-term.
Monday late evening feels quite harmonious, even given our urge to make progress and connect with like-minded people about our vision — we are definitely feeling social, and want to find commonalities.
Monday night/Tuesday very early morning, a harmonious Sun/Neptune aspect becomes exact at 1:40am EST. We started to feel this aspect build from last week, Friday evening (Nov. 2nd) on, it will remain strong until this Thursday evening. This aspect could be tremendously supportive when it comes to dissolving what no longer serves us.
Our intuition, imagination, and inspiration all seem to be “zeroed in”. We go beyond “tolerance”, to lovingly embrace differences in others, and give where it’s needed with open hearts and hands. All of this also feeds in to any creative and spiritual endeavors that start around this time.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career point (or one or more personal planets) in…

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…

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…

What a Week! — Forecast for Aug. 6th – 12th
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.
For this month only you can get a FREE copy of the entire Eclipse webinar by signing up for either the next two Forecasting Forums (late Aug. & Sept.) in advance. Click here to take advantage of that deal, by joining as a Star or SuperStar Member by the end of the month: click here to join, or upgrade your Universal Membership via your “My Subscriptions” tab inside your Members account by August 28th 😉
Now, this week’s Forecast:
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 in Taurus? 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 a Libra Sun- 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…

Invest In Your Health — Forecast for July 9th – 15th, 2018
This week’s headline items: Mars, Jupiter, and Chiron stay exalted all week long (aka stationing), Venus changes signs from Leo to Virgo on Monday, Jupiter comes to a halt on Tuesday; a powerful New Moon/Solar Eclipse and SuperMoon in Cancer becomes exact on Thursday; we can start setting our Eclipse Intentions on Sunday — and the Mars Station ends that same day.
There will be four Moon VoC phases this week: Monday early afternoon (for almost an hour), Tuesday afternoon (for 22 hours), Thursday late evening (for a little over 14.5 hours), and Saturday evening (for a little over 18 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick thing I want to share:
If you are not yet a Star or SuperStar Member, and you want to learn more about this week’s Solar Eclipse (and Chiron’s Station/Retrograde phases), you might want to purchase the video presentation of our most recent Forecasting Forum — we looked directly at our own birth charts to see how this will affect each of us.
For the next two weeks only, you can get a free copy of the entire webinar, plus a subscription to my Monthly Forecasting Forums, all by simply signing up for my Star or SuperStar Membership — the offer expires July 26th 😉
Click here to take advantage of this deal!
By the way, if you’re not sure whether it’s for you, you can take it for a “test drive”, by watching the first 28 minutes of this 90+min. webinar here for free: click here and enjoy!
Now, this week’s Forecast:
Monday (July 9th): the Moon remains in steady, peaceful Taurus until 12:58pm EDT. We love all physical comforts, prefer consistency, and would rather stick with what we know works well.
In other words: change is not our favorite thing and “rushing things” goes against our grain. What is our favorite thing until 12:58pm EDT? It’s probably, slowing down and getting in touch with whatever delights our senses 😉
Monday early morning, a challenging Mercury/Jupiter aspect becomes exact at 5:14am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last Friday evening (July 6th) on, it will remain strong until this Wednesday night. This aspect asks that we grow and evolve in how we communicate our joyful self-expression, how deep we dare to go with others, and how we explore our own fears and traumas. We may have to find creative solutions to communicate; we may have to learn about our thinking process and conditioning.
We want to share ourselves without limitation. We are thus inclined to exaggeration, often unintended — and might struggle to transform ideas into reality. The upside to all this: we can be extraordinarily funny, interesting and creative.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 10-16 degrees of Leo, Scorpio, Taurus, 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 Gemini, Virgo or Sagittarius (Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo; Jupiter is the ruler of Sagittarius).
Monday at 12:09pm EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for almost an hour, until 12:58pm EDT (early afternoon). Use this intuitive time to make some adjustments in your life. As best as you can, find creative solutions to seemingly unsolvable situations. Make space for connections with children or playful adults, for actively creating something, or for staying grounded in your body (preferably surrounded by and enjoyable nature and beauty).
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 early afternoon ahead of time.
Monday at 12:58pm EDT, the Moon enters chatty, versatile Gemini, where it will journey until Wednesday early afternoon. For the next two 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 🙂
Monday late evening, Venus changes signs from playful, fun-loving Leo to detail-oriented, practical Virgo. Venus will journey there until Aug. 6th. For the next four weeks, our relationships are…

Simplify and Be Patient — Forecast for June 11th – 17th, 2018
For me personally, last week was all about being careful not to push, and instead allowing the natural flow of things to take its course. The many long Moon void of course phases definitely helped with that 🙂
This week’s headline items: on Tuesday, the Neptune Station phase intensifies and Mercury changes signs from Gemini to Cancer. On Wednesday, the New Moon in Gemini becomes exact and Venus changes signs from Cancer to Leo; on Sunday, it’s time to start taking actions on our New Moon Intentions.
There will be four Moon VoC phases this week: Monday late evening (for almost 3.5 hours), Wednesday afternoon (for almost 12 hours), Friday early afternoon (for 15 hours) and Sunday late evening (for a little over 5 hours).
Monday (June 11th): the Moon remains in steady, peaceful Taurus all day. We love all physical comforts, prefer consistency, and would rather stick with what we know works well.
In other words: change is not our favorite thing and “rushing things” goes against our grain. What is our favorite thing for today? It’s probably, slowing down and getting in touch with whatever delights our senses 😉
Monday early afternoon, a somewhat challenging Sun/Pluto aspect becomes exact at 1:14pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last Sunday morning on, it will remain strong until Tuesday evening (June 12th). 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 fear of being manipulated might make us stubborn, or it might make us manipulative ourselves. As best as you can, keep choosing the “better” alternative/the higher road, adjusting as needed.
We might be forced to focus, time and again, on details we would prefer to ignore. 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 19-22 degrees of Gemini 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 Leo or Scorpio (the Sun rules Leo, Pluto is the ruler of Scorpio).
Monday at 11:29pm EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that last for almost 3.5 hours, until 2:53am EDT (Tuesday very early morning). This intuitive time could be a good time to connect with others from the heart. What if you let yourself enjoy others, in mutual pursuit of any shared values?
As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can,…

Forecast for April 9th – 15th, 2018
My inner dialog last week: “Don’t lose your shit over every little mishap, especially not when Mercury is still Retrograde in Aries, squaring Saturn in Capricorn! This too shall pass…” 😉
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement:
If you missed last week’s FORECASTING FORUM, you may want to catch the mp4 video we recorded. We talked about this month’s Saturn and Pluto Station and Retrograde phases this month, as they relate to our own Birth charts. If you’d like to purchase this webinar separately, click here.
In the next Forum, we’ll be talking about Chiron moving into Aries and Uranus moving into Taurus — major shifts! And here’s the Special Offer: if you sign up for the next Forum by the end of this week, you will get that Saturn/Pluto Station and Retrograde webinar recording mentioned above for FREE 😉
If you’re on the fence about signing up for the next Forum, this testimonial might give you some clarity:
“Thanks for another informative and spot-on interpretation of what is happening with the Station and Retrograde phases this month (in yesterday’s monthly forecasting forum) just brilliant” — A.D.
This week’s headline items: Saturn starts to slow down (aka “station”) on Monday, and this will intensify on Saturday. Mercury follows suit, beginning its own Station phase on Tuesday, that in turn intensifies on Friday (it will come to a complete halt — ending it’s retrograde phase — on Sunday morning).
In other news, the Balsamic Moon phase becomes exact on Thursday evening, and the New Moon in Aries becomes exact on Sunday, late in the evening.
And of course, the week wouldn’t be complete without some Moon VoC phases — though there are only two this week: the first on Wednesday, late in the morning (it lasts for almost 4 hours) and a longer one that starts Friday morning and runs for almost 16 hours.
Monday (April 9th): the Moon remains in practical, accomplishment-oriented Capricorn and VoC until 2:50am EDT. At that point, the Moon moves into freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius, where it will journey until Wednesday afternoon. The energy of the Aquarian Moon relates to our instinct for improvement. Reactions are more intellectual than emotional; interactions more impersonal than personal. We are likely to have an increased fascination with the new and unusual.
Social gatherings, anything connected with group ideals and goals for the future, brainstorming, new ideas and methods, progress: all these are promoted during the time the Moon moves through Aquarius. Again: we have our eyes on the future — or on outer space 🙂 Personal freedom becomes paramount.
Also on Monday, Saturn slows down (stations) in 9 degrees of Capricorn. “Stationing” is when a planet moves more slowly through the sky. When a planet stations, its energy becomes…

Stand in Your Power — Forecast for Jan. 15th – 21st
This quote really sums up last week for me: “If you insist on being in a hurry, you’ll move very quickly — and often get nowhere. Take a breath. Relax. Find your peace. Don’t require the Universe to move more rapidly than it is. It is actually working perfectly, and it will prove that to you if you will give it a chance. Really. Trust me on this.” — Neale Donald Walsh
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement:
We are getting closer to the launch of my new online community!
Right now we are aiming for Jan.16th or 17th — keep your fingers crossed for me 😉 I’m super-excited, and at the same time, I also sometimes stress out about the scope of this amazing new beginning for myself and everyone out there who will join us.
But as my spiritual coach likes to remind me, “Life is an ongoing experiment” and “True professionalism is about being able to be flexible and kind about unforeseen situations that come up, allowing ourselves to learn from them and finding out how to make creative adjustments.”
This week’s headline items: the New Moon in Capricorn becomes exact on Tuesday; Venus changes signs from Capricorn to Aquarius on Wednesday, and the Sun will do the same on Friday. Last but not least, Eclipse season begins on Sunday and runs until Feb. 25th.
There will also be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday night/Wednesday very early morning (for 2 hours), Friday morning (for a little over 8.5 hours), and Sunday evening (for a little over 5 hours).
Monday (January 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 over the next three years. It’s also a great time to take a more serious look at our strategies for self-mastery. (more…)
