Open to Forgiving Ourselves & Others — Forecast for July 6th – 12th
This week’s headline items: Neptune’s station ends on Monday and Venus’s does likewise on Tuesday, while Mercury is starting its Station-phase on Wednesday and comes to a halt on Sunday early morning, ending its 3.5-week Retrograde phase in Cancer; Chiron’s 5-month Retrograde phase begins on Saturday late afternoon; Mercury begins its post-Shadow phase on Sunday early morning. On Sunday evening the last Quarter Moon in Aries becomes exact.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday early morning (for a little over 30 minutes); Tuesday very early morning (37.5 hours); and Friday late evening (a little over an hour).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I’d like to mention:
Last chance to sign up for this week’s Forecasting Forum! Live this Sunday (July 12th) at 8:30am PDT/11:30am EDT/4:30pm BST (London-time).
Please note that we’ll take a look at the Mercury & Chiron Station phases (until July 17th + 21st), as well as Chiron’s Retrograde phase in Aries (July 11th – Dec. 15th), and Mercury’s Direct motion & post-Shadow phase in Cancer (July 12th – 26th).
How do your limitations around the masculine energies show up in your life? What about the limitations of your ancestors in that regard? What about your “human limitations” in general? How could you gain a greater understanding of your own “inner wounded child”? What have you been itching to move forward with and communicate?

Other than booking a reading with me, this is the highest level of support you can get — and it’s still only $37 for the 90+ minute webinar.

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, July 6th:
Monday, the Moon remains in ambitious, goal-oriented Capricorn. It will journey there until 6:08am EDT.
Monday at 5:35am EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for a little over 30 minutes until 6:08am EDT. Use this intuitive time to experience a sense of maturity, and commitment towards yourself and your long-term goals; for long-term success, focus on long-term projects that require a realistic approach or a solid commitment.
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 morning ahead of time.
Monday at 6:08am EDT, the Moon moves into freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius, where it will journey until Wednesday afternoon. The Aquarian Moon relates to our instinct for improvement. Reactions are more intellectual than emotional, interactions more impersonal than personal; we likely have an increased fascination with the new and unusual.
All of the following are also promoted during the time the Moon moves through Aquarius: social gatherings, anything connected with group ideals and goals for the future, brainstorming, new ideas and methods, progress — as you can see, we have our eyes set on the future (or turned toward outer space 🙂 Personal freedom becomes paramount.
Also, on Monday, Neptune resumes its normal pace through the sky, although retrograde, ending its station. What has come up in the last four weeks around resting, trusting and allowing? How closely are you in touch with your intuition? Now is a good time to…

Connection to the Collective — Forecast for June 29th – July 5th
This week’s headline items: Chiron starts its Station phase on Monday (it slows down in Aries, preparing to go retrograde) and it intensifies on Friday; a Jupiter/Pluto conjunction in Capricorn becomes exact Tuesday very early morning; Saturn changes sign (from Aquarius back to Capricorn) on Wednesday evening; a powerful Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse in Capricorn becomes exact in the wee small hours of Sunday.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday morning (for almost 10 hours); Wednesday evening (for a brief minute); and Friday morning (for almost 16 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I’d like to mention one last time:
You have two more days to join us for one month as a STAR Member for FREE!!! This includes an invitation to my next Monthly Forecasting Forum on July 12th, lots of discounts for: Readings (10%), Astrology courses (15%), and Coaching-Healing sessions (15%), you also get access to my daily, weekly and bi-monthly Forecasts.

PS: If after a month you decide that you don’t want to continue with that Membership, you can either pause it, cancel it, or downgrade it to the Universal Membership level.
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, June 29th:
Monday, the Moon remains in harmony-loving, balance-seeking Libra. It will journey there until 6:48pm EDT. 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. Today 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 at 9:02am EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for almost 10 hours until 6:48pm EDT. Use this intuitive time to make some adjustments in your life and find creative solutions to seemingly unsolvable situations. As best as you can, look to expand your perspectives around any long-term goals you are currently pursuing, and find ways to create win-win outcomes for your various one-on-one relationships.
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 morning until the evening ahead of time.
Monday at 6:48pm EDT, 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. This makes it 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 thus 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 do your best to 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, Chiron starts its Station phase in 9.5 degrees of Aries. It is slowing down as it gets ready to start its yearly 5-month Retrograde phase, on July 11th. We will feel the effects of its station until July 21st; its energies are more exalted during this period.
Chiron is known as the “Wounded Healer”; in Aries, our attention is turned towards our physical and sexual wounds, and our wounding around our self-identity. Chiron represents our inner insecurities, those self-conscious and wounded places. Chiron also represents the inner wound of abandonment and our need to “make it on our own”.
We are invited to approach these wounds on a holistic level, to heal them such that others are healed thereby. This is accomplished very simply and naturally when we work with the true beauty and strength of this energy: Compassion.
Having compassion for our own wounds or sensitivities heals them and allows healing compassion for the wounds we now see in others.
What physical or sexual wounding could you now acknowledge? Where are your insecurities around personal goals or being a leader in your own unique way? What needs your compassion or even your love? What needs to heal?
For those of you who want to have a better understanding of your personal healing journey, feel free to join my online community and get automatically access to the mp3-recording of my Chiron-workshop: “Healing with Astrology” Click here for more info.
If you are already a Member of my online community, go to the “My Course” tab, and you will find the Chiron workshop there.
We will also talk more about the Chiron Station and Retrograde phase, in relationship to your own Birth chart, in our next Forecasting Forum on Sunday, July 12th. Click here for more info and to register.
To join for FREE, become a Star Member on my site. As I already mentioned above, one month of STAR Membership is available for FREE until June 30th at midnight with discount code: MSTAR. After that date, you can get the Early Bird Special until July 9th right here.

Are You Experiencing the Flow of Life? — Forecast for June 22nd – 28th
This week’s headline items: Neptune comes to a halt on Monday night/Tuesday very early morning, starting its 5-month retrograde phase, while Mercury’s Station ends on Wednesday (it will remain Retrograde until July 12th), and Venus goes direct, ending her retrograde and beginning her post Shadow period on Thursday very early morning. It’s time to set our New Moon/Solar Eclipse Intentions on Tuesday morning (and revisit them on Thursday evening); Mars changes signs from Pisces to Aries on Saturday late evening, and squares June 21st’s Solar Eclipse degree; and the First Quarter Moon in Libra becomes exact on Sunday early morning.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday very early morning (for a little over 5 hours); Wednesday very early morning (this is a long VoC, at 35.5 hours); and Saturday late afternoon (for a brief 14 minutes).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I’d like to share this:

PS: If after a month you decide that you don’t want to continue with the STAR Membership, you can either pause it, cancel it, or downgrade it to the Universal Membership level.
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, June 22nd:
Monday, the Moon remains in protective, nurturing Cancer all day. It will journey there until Tuesday morning. 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 day 😉
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, otherwise you might start to feel drained and resentful.
Monday late afternoon, we are in a state of “flow” and emotional connection to others; spiritual and creative endeavors are favored.
Monday late evening, we may take an all-or-nothing attitude toward others; this could drive some tension or oppositional behaviors… As best you can, remain flexible and practice self-care — take good care of your emotional and physical body — that way, you’ll remain able to empower yourself and others. As best as you can, also tap into a greater wisdom that helps you grow in your career goals and expand your dealings out there in the world.
Monday night/Tuesday very early morning, Neptune comes to a halt in 21 degrees of Pisces, beginning a 5-month Retrograde phase. Until this ends on Nov 28th, we are invited to access Neptune’s energy from within: Our intuition will be very strong during this time.
We can see how connected we are to our Higher Self/The Universe/Source. What’s more, we have an opportunity to dissolve any barriers between us and our Soul’s guidance. Are we sensing our Soul’s desire for love and oneness to the fullest? Are we resting enough? Are we connecting to our intuition? Is anything keeping us from experiencing the flow of life?
Some of us will feel the effects more than others. This is particularly true if you have personal planets in…

Do Work that Helps Others — Forecast for June 15th – 21st
This week’s headline items: Neptune’s station intensifies on Monday; the Balsamic Moon phase begins very early on Wednesday; Mercury comes to a halt and goes retrograde on Wednesday night/Thursday very early morning; Venus’ station intensifies on Friday; the Sun aligns with the North Node in Gemini on Friday evening; on Saturday late afternoon, the Sun moves into Cancer (this marks the Summer Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere); and a powerful New Moon/Solar Eclipse in Cancer becomes exact very early on Sunday.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday late evening (for a little over 8.5 hours); Thursday morning (9 hours); and Saturday early evening (a little over 8 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I’d like to mention:
I have a SPECIAL OFFER: for the next two weeks only, get a FREE month of my STAR Membership.

PS: If after a month you decide that you don’t want to continue with that Membership, you can either pause it, cancel it, or downgrade it to the Universal Membership level.
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, June 15th:
Monday, the Moon remains in pioneering, fast-paced Aries all day. It will journey there until Tuesday 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 exercising, or finding other ways to burn off the body’s excess energy.
Monday early evening, we are again invited to make adjustments and find creative solutions around personal desires and needs, versus our deep passion and focus on long-term goals. As best as you can, allow yourself to make space for both; flexibility and adaptability are key if we mean to move forward with our plans and projects…
Monday evening, we have an opportunity to connect with others and move a project forward that is dear to us. It’s time for action: What small (or even large) action steps could you take? Or is it a question of “who” rather than “how”?
Monday at 8:49pm EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for a little over 8.5 hours, until 5:35am EDT (on Tuesday). Use this intuitive time to make adjustments and find creative solutions around the tension between your personal desires and needs, versus your need for expansion and new perspectives on a professional level and in regards to long-term goals.
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 Tuesday early morning ahead of time.
Also, on Monday, Neptune’s station intensifies — and will appear to move more slowly through the sky until June 30th. It is getting ready to come to a halt and start it’s 5-month retrograde phase on June 23rd (more on that next week…)
A planet’s energies are more exalted during it’s “station period”; this has even more weight for an outer planet, as they move more slowly and their stations last much longer. This Neptune station is particularly strong, since it occurs in Pisces, its own sign.
Neptune represents things like universal love, our inner divinity, spirituality, inspiration, compassion, faith — plus creative and imaginative realms such as music or film — while the shadow side is confusion, illusion and escapism of all kinds. We start to be aware of all those energies more fully in our lives.
This awareness helps us to connect more fully to those energies as they exist within us. We can then see where we need to either embrace them more fully, or connect to them in a healthy way, that doesn’t involve getting lost in the murky lower vibrations of their expression.
Some of us will feel the effects of this station more than others: those of us with a Pisces Sun- or Rising-Sign (Ascendant) — and those of us with personal planets and points in…

Let Go and Let Flow — Forecast for June 8th – 14th
This week’s headline items: Several planets will station (i.e. their rates of progress through the sky slows): Mercury starts its Station phase very early Wednesday and the station intensifies on Saturday, as the planet prepares for its 3-week Retrograde phase; on Friday, Neptune also stations, preparing for its yearly retrograde; Venus starts her station (again), preparing to end her 6 week Retrograde phase. Very early Saturday, the last Quarter Moon in Pisces becomes exact.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday afternoon (for almost 7 hours); Wednesday late morning (for 19 hours); and Saturday morning (a littler over 8 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I’d like to mention:
We are still in Eclipse season until July 20th, so if you haven’t seen our webinar about the Eclipses yet, definitely check it out! There are three Eclipses: a Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius (was exact on June 5th), a Solar Eclipse in Cancer (exact on June 21st), and second Lunar Eclipse, this time in Capricorn (exact on July 5th)!
If you want to know how these powerful Lunations are going to impact you personally, get the mp4-video presentation about the current three Eclipses, here
Other than booking a reading with me, this is the maximum level of support I offer — and it’s *only $37* for this 120 minute webinar.
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, June 8th:
Monday, the Moon remains in ambitious, goal-oriented Capricorn. It will journey there until 8:54pm EDT. 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 — and it will be transiting through Aquarius until July 1st, making this a great time to take a look at our visions for humanity, and at anything we would like to accomplish long-term within our communities (locally or online).
It’s also a great time to take a more serious look at our various networks and connections to like-minded people; as best as you can, be authentic about your affiliations: Do they truly resonate with your personal vision for the future — as it stands now, rather than what it was 5 or 10 years ago? Does participation in those groups or networks align with who you are now, and with where you see yourself 5 years from now? What do you truly want to commit yourself to?
Monday early morning, we have an opportunity to soften our need for accomplishment with a gentler, more intuitive approach. Ask yourself: Where might I be guided, if I trusted my physical and intuitive body to guide me? Could I tune in and listen 5% more to those subtle sensations or messages?
Monday late morning, our focus intensifies — we might even get a little obsessed with a project or task — as best as you can, take breaks and don’t forget to practice a little self-care 😉
Monday at 2:06pm EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for almost 7 hours until 8:54pm EDT. Use this intuitive time to grow in your maturity and self-commitment. For long-term success, expand your perspective around your goals — you have the courage now to make a solid commitment — take advantage of the opportunity to work towards something worthwhile.
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 until the late evening ahead of time.
Monday at 8:54pm EDT, the Moon moves into freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius, where it will journey until Thursday early morning. 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…

What do we need to learn? — Forecast for June 1st – 7th
This week’s headline items: Mercury enters its pre-Shadow phase in Cancer on Tuesday very early morning; a powerful Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius becomes exact on Friday; and there will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday morning (for almost 5.5 hours); Thursday morning (for a little over 5.5 hours); and Saturday very early morning (for a little over 15.5 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, one quick announcement:
If you missed my latest Forecasting Forum, but want to see how the upcoming three Eclipses (and the major shifts they bring) are impacting you personally, check out the whole 120 min. webinar here (will be available for purchase by June 1st).
Star Members: check your email for the link to the mp4-video recording and enjoy watching it! I sent it out on May 31st late at night 😉
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, June 1st:
Monday, the Moon remains in harmony-loving, balance-seeking Libra all day. It will journey there until Tuesday early 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 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 become more aware that we need to find a balance between two very different energies — on the one hand, taking a compassionate approach towards our personal goals, while being assertive in the world — and on the other hand, our need to connect and collaborate with others. Ask yourself: what if taking a compassionate approach towards myself actually made for more fulfilling connections with others?
Monday morning, we are invited to make some internal adjustments. We may want to connect with others, but may also need to become aware of our intuitive, more creative side. What do you feel/sense when you get really quiet? What actions are calling to you?
Monday late morning, we feel social and seek connection on a mental level. As best as you can, have stimulating conversations — and allow for collaboration.
Monday late evening, we are invited to make some more internal adjustments. We may want to connect with others, but may also need to tune into our intuitive inner voice. As you did earlier in the day, ask yourself: What do I sense when I get really quiet? Could a compassionate heart bring peace to your interactions with others?
Monday night/Tuesday very early morning, Mercury enters its pre-Shadow phase when it reaches 5.5 degrees of Cancer; this is a little over 2 weeks prior to its Retrograde phase (which starts on June 18th).
What is the Shadow phase? The period immediately before and after a planet’s Retrograde phase is referred to as the “Shadow phase”; at these times, the planet travels through the degrees of a sign that it will later pass through again during its Retrograde phase, and then once more after the Retrograde phase (for a total of three passes over the same territory.)
Mercury is usually in its shadow for about two to three weeks both before and after a retrograde.
This gives us a chance to look at our thoughts, communications, or mental exchanges connected to the past, our home, or family issues — so look carefully at whatever shows up in those areas of your life during the first Shadow phase; you will get a chance to readdress, revisit, or reorganize those thoughts and issues during the Mercury Retrograde phase (June 18th – July 12th).
If you love to write things down, I suggest that you record important conversations or thoughts in your calendar during the pre-Shadow phase.
Is your Sun-sign or Ascendant in Gemini or Virgo? Or perhaps you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 3-16 degrees of Cancer, Capricorn, Aries or Libra? If so, you are…

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, May 25th:
Monday, the Moon remains in protective, nurturing Cancer all day. It will journey there until Wednesday very early morning. 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 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 own glass is full before letting others drink from it; if you don’t, you might start to feel drained and resentful.
Monday very early morning, a somewhat challenging Mercury/Pluto aspect becomes exact at 12:26am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Sunday morning (May 24th) on; and it will remain strong until this Tuesday morning (May 26th). This aspect 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 life 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. Surrender to whatever you are experiencing right now: It is temporary 😉
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 24-26 degrees of Gemini or Capricorn? 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 Gemini, Virgo or Scorpio (Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo; Pluto is the ruler of Scorpio).
Also, Monday very early morning, an opportune Mars/Uranus aspect becomes exact at 2:48am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week Thursday evening (May 21st) on; and it will remain strong until this Thursday. We have the opportunity to create some forward movement in our lives, especially in connection to our future visions. We may want to work on projects with like-minded people right now. Flexibility is the key to success at this time; pleasant changes may be in store — certainly unexpected ones 😉
What is one of your unique goals? How could you go after what you want, while still keeping other people’s benefit in mind? As best as you can, watch out for messages from the Universe! Remember: an opportunity is not automatically given to us: We have to “realize” it.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 6-10 degrees of Pisces, Taurus, Cancer, or Virgo? If so, you will be more aware of this opportunity. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Aries or Aquarius (Mars is the ruler of Aries; Uranus is the ruler of Aquarius).
Also, on Monday, although now retrograde, Saturn resumes its normal pace through the sky, ending its station. What came up in the last four weeks around any commitments to build something long-term? How about the need to be more realistic? How truthful are you with yourself about “where you’re at”?
The Retrograde phase is a good time to do some internal work in these areas (the retrograde ends on Sept. 29th). We now have 4.5 months to go over….

Have Faith — Forecast for May 18th – May 24th
This week’s headline items: the Balsamic Moon phase begins on Monday around noon; the Sun changes signs from Taurus to Gemini on Wednesday late morning; the New Moon in Gemini becomes exact on Friday afternoon, starting Eclipse season — and, although the planet is continuing to move retrograde, Venus’s Station phase ends on Sunday.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday late afternoon (for a little over 5.5 hours); Friday early morning (for a little over 5.5 hours); and Sunday morning (for 12 hours).
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, May 18th:
Monday, the Moon remains in pioneering, fast-paced Aries all day. It will journey there until Tuesday late 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 very early morning, has lots of potential for healing around family, the “mother archetype”, home, and our past in general. We may feel more sensitive and insecure about what we identity with, and around our ability to be assertive; this gives us the opportunity to give ourselves some compassion, acceptance and nurturing in the face of our sensitivities and limitations.
Monday around noon EDT, the Balsamic Moon phase begins as the Moon reaches 13 degrees of Aries. This lasts until Friday afternoon, when the New Moon in Gemini becomes exact (more on that later in the week… however, to watch my New Moon video now already — click here).
We are being asked to slow down and get quiet, so we can listen to our 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. 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?
Monday early afternoon, we have an opportunity to connect with others and move a project forward that is dear to us. It’s time for…

Don’t Exhaust Yourself — Forecast for May 11th – 17th
This week’s headline items: we have lots of planetary movements! Saturn comes to a halt, starting its yearly 4.5 month Retrograde phase early Monday, and Mercury changes signs from Taurus to Gemini that evening, while Jupiter’s station intensifies on Monday as well. Mars changes sign from Aquarius to Pisces Wednesday very early morning, while in the afternoon, Venus comes to a halt, starting her 6-week Retrograde phase. Late Thursday morning, we have the last Quarter Moon in Aquarius becoming exact and Jupiter coming to a halt, to begin its annual 4-month Retrograde phase. Although continuing retrograde, Pluto ends its Station phase on Sunday.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday morning (for a little over 5 hours); Thursday late morning (for almost

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, May 11th:
Monday, the Moon remains in ambitious, goal-oriented Capricorn all day. It will journey there until Tuesday late 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 — and it will be transiting through Aquarius until July 1st, making this a great time to take a look at our visions for humanity, and at anything we would like to accomplish long-term within our communities (locally or online).
It’s also a great time to take a more serious look at our various networks and connections to like-minded people; as best as you can, be authentic about your affiliations: Do they truly resonate with your personal vision for the future — as it stands now, rather than what it was 5 or 10 years ago? Does participation in those groups or networks align with who you are now, and with where you see yourself 5 years from now? What do you truly want to commit yourself to?
When this planet comes to a halt and turns retrograde, we get to see where we need to create or renew our commitments. As best as you can, take it all in and see where you would like to make adjustments. You will get a chance to do just that for the next 4.5 months.
If you have an Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in the following: 0-4 degrees of Aquarius, Leo, Taurus, Scorpio, or 23-29 degrees of Capricorn, Cancer, Aries or Libra, you will be more affected by this Retrograde-phase. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Capricorn (Saturn being the ruler of Capricorn).
Also, Monday very early morning, a challenging Mercury/Mars aspect
As best as you can, make it a productive discussion that serves you and others — a win-win — otherwise you might feel really awful afterwards. Also, watch out on the road for crazy drivers… rushing might not necessarily get us there faster 😉
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or any personal planets) in the following: 25-29 degree of Taurus, Aquarius, Scorpio, Leo, or 0-2 degrees of Gemini, Pisces, Virgo, or Sagittarius? If so, you may feel more affected by this aspect. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini, Virgo or Aries (Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo; Mars rules Aries)
Monday at 5:58pm EDT, Mercury changes signs from steady, slow-paced Taurus to curious, quick-witted Gemini, where it will journey until May 28th. For the next 2 weeks, our thinking shifts gears: Mercury — the energy of communication — will pick up the pace of our lives just a little.
Mental exchanges and abilities take priority for the next two weeks — talking, writing, sharing, connecting to the world around us in whatever way we can (internet, phone, in person, TV, radio…). This is a time with great potential for studying and learning, curiosity and open-mindedness, and social/intellectual growth.
Make sure you don’t exhaust yourself during this time. As best as you can, keep taking breaks and let yourself see the larger picture now and again. Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini or Virgo? If so, you will feel the pick up in pace more strongly.
Also on Monday, Jupiter’s Station intensifies at 27 degrees of Capricorn, as it is preparing to come to a halt on Thursday (starting its 4-month Retrograde phase). This intensified station will last until May 18th. We will feel its energy even more forcefully during this time.
As I mentioned back on May 2nd’s entry, when a planet stations, we start to be more fully aware of its energy; this awareness helps us to get more connected to those energies as they exist within us. We get to see where we need to embrace them more fully, so that we can use them in a healthy way, without getting lost in the lower vibrations of their expression.
Until May 18th, we have to face what this planet is trying to communicate to us: Jupiter represents our desire to seek insight via the gaining of knowledge. Some of this planet’s keywords: morality, gratitude, hope, honor, law.
Jupiter is also the planet of possibility, optimism, and growth (including mental and spiritual growth). It is also associated with a sense of humor, goodwill, and mercy.
The lower expressions of Jupiter include “Oh, the heck with it”, “I deserve this and more”, “the rules do not apply to me” — generally speaking: too much of a good thing, blind optimism, excess, stretching the truth, overindulgence.
Those of us who have any of our personal planets (or our Ascendant) in 25-29 degrees of Capricorn, Cancer, Aries, or Libra will be…

Acknowledging Our Limitations – Forecast for May 4th – 10th
This week’s headline items: Saturn’s station intensifies on Monday; the Moon Nodes switch signs from Cancer/Capricorn to Gemini/Sagittarius on Monday night/Tuesday very early morning; Venus’ station intensifies on Wednesday; the Full Moon in Scorpio becomes exact on Thursday morning.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday late evening (for a little over 4.5 hours); Thursday late evening (for a little over 4.5 hours); and Sunday very early morning (for 3.5 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I’d like to mention:
If you missed our most recent Forecasting Forum… and still would like to learn how Venus’ 6-week Retrograde phase in Gemini is going to impact you personally… as well as the 20-month Transit of the Moon Nodes in Gemini/Sagittarius, feel free to get the mp4-video presentation about “Moon Nodes in Gemini/Sagittarius until 2022/Venus Retrograde May-June 2020” — and see how it relates to your own Birth Chart… To purchase this webinar, click here
Before you invest in the whole 97min. webinar, feel free to watch a 23-min excerpt here.
Star Members: check your email for the link to the mp4-video recording and enjoy watching it! I sent it out on May 3rd late evening 😉
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, May 4th:
Monday, the Moon remains in detail-oriented, practical Virgo and VoC until 3:09am EDT; at that time, the Moon enters harmony-loving, balance-seeking Libra, where it will journey until very early Wednesday 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, 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 late afternoon, a Sun/Mercury alignment in 15 degrees of Taurus becomes exact at 5:41pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week, Saturday morning (May 2nd) on; and it will be strong until this Thursday. When the Sun and Mercury come together, we are especially sharp, communicative, and open. This aspect indicates a confident mind and an analytical approach to life.
Intelligence and communication abilities are strong. We can expect a no-nonsense approach to decision-making. Ideas tend to be practical and useful.
That said, we may not listen as well as the other speaks — we might be too busy thinking about what to say next. Words matter now, so choose them wisely: If people hung on your every word, what would you say then? What would you hold back from saying?
Our opinions are usually strong during this time; we like to think independently and are proud of our opinions and our thoughts. For this reason, our egos might get bruised if we are not “heard” — if our opinions are pushed aside, ignored or criticized. As best as you can, express yourself fully, knowing that others may have different opinions… and that’s ok.
We may dig in our heals, but find it does not serve us, so choose your battles wisely and seek peace wherever possible.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 12-18 degrees of Scorpio, Taurus, Aquarius or Leo ? If so, you will be more affected by this alignment. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo, Gemini or Virgo (the Sun rules Leo; Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo).
Also on Monday, the Saturn’s station intensifies until May 16th. “Stationing” is when a planet moves more slowly through the sky. When a planet stations, its energy becomes more “exalted”; in the case of Saturn, this means we all feel the need to more fully face what is currently so, our actual reality.
Saturn has to do with doing what needs to be done — so we can fully understand the practical implications of our reality, and the consequences of our past actions. Saturn also represents our structures, responsibilities, commitments and ability to “do” life, on life’s terms.
As spirit beings in a physical world, it’s best to observe the laws of the physical world. The sooner we learn to “play by the rules”, the easier life gets. Saturn also represents time and the “domain” of time: growing up, maturing, understanding and acknowledging our limitations, setting healthy boundaries with others, living with integrity, being authentic and truthful, being serious and focused on building something of value to society.
Saturn is our teacher. If you had a cosmic teacher, where would your personal “Earth Classes” be focused, right now? Where are you being asked to take a more serious look at your social affiliations, communities (in-person or online), or group causes? Do they truly resonate with your personal vision for the future? Does participation in those groups or networks align with who you are now? What requires a more mature approach in those areas?
What calls for a commitment towards a larger future vision? What will time do?
As best as you can during the time of the station, bring flexibility and open-mindedness to any frustrations. This more intensified Station-phase will last until May 16th; and Saturn starts its 4-month Retrograde phase on Monday, May 11th in almost 2 degrees of Aquarius (more on that next week). Is your Sun-sign or Ascendant in Capricorn or Aquarius? If so, you are…

A Realistic Vision for Humanity — Forecast for April 27th – May 3rd
This week’s headline items: Mercury changes signs from Aries to Taurus on Monday afternoon; on Tuesday, it is
There will be four Moon VoC phases this week: Monday early afternoon (for 28 min.); Wednesday afternoon (for a little over 5.5 hours); Friday early afternoon (for 13.5 hours); and Sunday late evening (for a little over 4.5 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement:
Last chance to join this week’s Forecasting Forum, live on Sunday, May 3rd at 11:30am EDT/4:30pm UK-time. Please note that we’ll take a look at the upcoming Venus Retrograde (May 13th – June 25th) and Station phase (April 30th – May 24th) in Gemini, and the Moon Nodes in Gemini/Sagittarius (May 5th, 2020 – Jan. 2022).
What values need to be reassessed in your life? In your relationships? Your finances? What might a closer look reveal? What “old” assumptions, beliefs, or stories are you ready to acknowledge and release — or redefine? How might staying curious help with that?
If you would like to join live, please keep in mind that registration will close an hour before the live event begins, if you register after 10:30am EDT on Sunday you will receive the mp4-video presentation of the webinar.
EARLY BIRD SPECIAL is still available until Thursday night (April 30th)!!! Click here to register now!
Also, just as a reminder: Star Members are automatically registered. If you are already at that Membership level, please look out for an email with the link to join live on Saturday afternoon, and a second email with a link to the mp4-recording of the webinar — within 24 hours of the live event.
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, April 27th:
Monday, the Moon remains in chatty, versatile Gemini until 1:28pm EDT. 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 at 1:00pm EDT, we enter a brief Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for 28 min. until 1:28pm EDT. Use this intuitive time as an opportunity to connect with others and move a project forward that is dear to you. It’s time to be direct and communicate — what do you need to move forward faster? Who could give you that information?
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.
Monday at 1:28pm EDT, the Moon moves into protective, nurturing Cancer, where it will journey until Wednesday late evening (April 29th). 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 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, otherwise you might start to feel drained and resentful.
Monday at 3:53pm EDT, Mercury changes signs from enthusiastic, fast-paced Aries to steady, peaceful Taurus, where it will journey until May 11th. For the next 2 weeks, our thinking shifts gears: we want to connect to others in a realistic, down-to-earth way and we “say it like it is”. We appreciate common sense; we rely on our senses when it comes to processing information.
A well-developed sense of color, smell, and touch are characteristic of this Mercury position, so as long as Mercury is in Taurus, we will be drawn towards the “tasteful” in the realm of the five senses. We are more likely to have a no-nonsense approach to decision-making, and our ideas are often very practical and useful at this time.
When it comes to learning, we prefer demonstrations, concrete answers, and basic concepts for the next 2 weeks. We learn best when we see real-world uses for the theories we are trying to absorb. We simply process information better when we can personalize it (“what use is it to me?”) and attach it to the practical world.
Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus? Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini or Virgo? If so, you may…

Our Journey towards Authenticity — Forecast for April 20th – 26th
This week’s headline items: The New Moon in Taurus becomes exact on Wednesday late evening; Pluto comes to a halt, starting its 5-month Retrograde phase on Saturday afternoon; Saturn starts its Station phase on Sunday, as it prepares to go retrograde.
There will only be two Moon VoC phases this week: Wednesday morning (for a little over 7 hours) and Friday evening (for almost 7 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I’d like to mention:
If you haven’t had a chance yet to watch my Interview with Jean-Claude from Beyond Mystic about: what the future holds, please feel free to watch it here.
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, April 20th:
Monday, the Moon remains in creative, sensitive Pisces and VoC until 3:00am EDT. At that time, the Moon enters pioneering, fast-paced Aries. It will journey there until Wednesday mid-afternoon. 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 morning, we get an opportunity to take actions on our personal goals, in a very concrete way and bring a new level of focus and authenticity to our future visions.
Monday late afternoon, has lots of potential for healing around family, the “mother archetype”, home, and our past in general. We may feel more sensitive and insecure about what we identity with, and around our ability to be assertive; this gives us the opportunity to give ourselves some compassion, acceptance and nurturing in the face of our sensitivities and limitations.

A Common Vision for Life — Forecast for April 13th – 19th
This week’s headline items: Pluto’s Station phase intensifies on Monday
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday evening (for almost 8 hours), Friday late morning (for almost 4 hours), and Sunday evening (for 7.5 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I’d like to mention:
If you missed my Forecasting Forum last week… and still would like to learn how the big shifts that we are currently experiencing are impacting you personally… feel free to watch the mp4-video presentation about Saturn in Aquarius & the Jupiter/Pluto conjunction in Capricorn — as it relates to your own Birth Chart…
To purchase this webinar, click here.
Before you invest in the whole 95 min. webinar, feel free to watch a 20-min excerpt here.
Star Members: check your email for the link to the mp4-video recording and enjoy watching it! I sent it out on April 7th in the morning 😉
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, April 13th:
Monday, the Moon remains in ambitious, goal-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 — and it will be transiting through Aquarius until July 1st, making this a great time to take a look at our visions for humanity, and at anything we would like to accomplish long-term within our communities (locally or online).
It’s also a great time to take a more serious look at our various networks and connections to like-minded people; as best as you can, be authentic about your affiliations: Do they truly resonate with your personal vision for the future — as it stands now, rather than what it was 5 or 10 years ago? Does participation in those groups or networks align with who you are now, and with where you see yourself 5 years from now? What do you truly want to commit yourself to?
Monday morning, we are invited to connect with like-minded people, and learn something new about our unique talents or value to the world. We are better able to connect to anything that involves a long-term commitment. We perhaps might also implement revolutionary business practices or government programs that support our values and make life tangibly more enjoyable.
Also on Monday morning, we are invited to make adjustments and find creative solutions to seemingly insoluble situations. As best as you can, make space for looking into some alternative exercise programs or holistic approaches to your personal projects and current long-term commitments. Compassion is key 😉
Monday late morning, we are in invited to make some 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 connect and share ourselves with others — and on the other, the need to accomplish something out there in the real world, and to be responsible and self-reliant.
Also on Monday, Pluto’s Station phase intensifies until May 9th. It will come to a halt on April 25th in 25 degrees of Capricorn (more on that next week). As I mentioned last week already, when an outer planet stations, its energy gets more pronounced; this becomes even more pronounced when its Station phase intensifies.
We become even more aware of its impact on us — and this can sometimes cause discomfort. We are being asked to hang out with that discomfort until the planet’s energy has picked up speed again (around May 17th).
As best as you can, take a closer look at whatever is “in your face” for the next 5 weeks. Look for what might no longer be in alignment with your soul’s purpose (your deep, authentic, emotional Self) — especially in relation to long-term goals and your standing in society.
Ask yourself: Where am I holding on, out of fear? What habits, behaviors or fears are holding me back from feeling fully empowered from within? What would it look like, if I was fully aligned with my Soul-purpose? How would it feel?
When we confront our fears we very often discover hidden gifts and strengths. Do you have an Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in…

Take Innovative Action — Forecast for April 6th – 12th
This week’s headline items: a Super Full Moon in Libra becomes exact on Tuesday late evening; Venus enters her pre-Shadow phase in Gemini on Thursday; and Mercury changes signs from Pisces to Aries, very early Saturday morning.
There will be four Moon VoC phases this week: Monday late morning (for almost 8 hours), Wednesday morning (for almost 7.5 hours), Friday afternoon (for a brief hour) and Sunday morning (for a little over 12 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I’d like to mention two things:
1- Last chance to join this week’s Forecasting Forum, live on Monday at 5:30pm EDT. Click here for more info or to register — STAR Members are registered automatically and will receive an email to join live on Monday morning, as well as an email with the mp4-video presentation, within 24 hours of the live event.

Please check your email for the discount code (it was sent out on Friday, April 3rd). If you can’t find the email, please reach out to me and I will email it again 😉
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, April 6th:
Monday, the Moon remains in detail-oriented, practical Virgo until 5:16pm 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 morning, we can potentially accomplish quite a bit: The Moon in Virgo makes a harmonious aspect to Pluto in Capricorn. Virgo and Capricorn are Earth signs, so getting down to business and focusing on the task at hand takes less effort than normal. We are able to tackle anything that requires attention to detail and maybe even implement health routines or other systems that support our long-term goals.
Monday at 9:29am EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for almost 8 hours until 5:16pm EDT. Use this intuitive time to clarify what’s important to you. Ask yourself: What works for me in my daily routines? What doesn’t? What are my expectations or attitudes towards those things? What new vantage point might show me how to easily implement my business goals?
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 until the late afternoon ahead of time.
Monday at 5:16pm EDT, the Moon moves into harmony-loving, balance-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 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. This Moon placement starts the build up towards the Full Moon (exact Tuesday late evening).
Monday evening: we feel harmonious connections, even though we are focused on…

A Larger Perspective — Forecast for March 30th – April 5th
This week’s headline items: Mars changes signs from Capricorn to Aquarius on Monday afternoon; the first Quarter Moon in Cancer becomes exact on Wednesday morning; Venus changes signs from Taurus to Gemini Friday afternoon; also on Friday, Pluto starts its Station phase (slows down/preparing to go retrograde).
There are also two very important conjunctions taking place this week: the Mars/Saturn conjunction in Aquarius on Tuesday afternoon, and the Jupiter/Pluto conjunction in Capricorn on Saturday afternoon! We will be talking about both in the upcoming Forecasting Forum on April 6th, in connection with our own Birth charts! Click here to register, if you are not already a Star Member 😉 EARLY BIRD SPECIAL available until this Friday at midnight.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday late morning (for 20.5 hours), Thursday early afternoon (for a little over 1.5 hours), and Friday late afternoon (for almost 26 hours).
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, March 30th:
Monday, the Moon remains in chatty, versatile Gemini all day. It will journey there until Tuesday morning. For the next day, 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 at 11:10am EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for 20.5 hours until 7:43am EDT (Tuesday morning). Use this intuitive time to clarify what’s important to you. Ask yourself: What works for me in my daily routines? What doesn’t? What are my expectations or attitudes towards those things? What new vantage point might show me how to easily implement my business goals?
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 until Tuesday morning ahead of time.
Monday at 3:43pm EDT, Mars changes signs from ambitious, goal-oriented Capricorn to freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius, where it will journey until May 12/13th. During this time 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 have a rather original, forward-thinking view of the world now. What if you suddenly said “surprise yourself”, when you were least expecting it? 😉
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. However, we do love connecting with like-mined people at this time (in person or online), so if you have a special cause or community project that you like to engage in, go for it!
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 (or a “class” or group of people) is less “special” than you, put your hand over your heart and ask “what would my heart say to this?”
The last time Mars journeyed through Aquarius was May – August 2018, and Sept. – Nov. 2018. Think back to those times: what got initiated around then? How could you move that to the next level?
If you have an Aries Sun-sign or Rising-sign, you are going to feel more detached, forward-thinking and freedom-loving. You may want to change things in your life that have outlived their use. If you are an Aquarius Sun-sign or Rising sign, you will feel quite energized for the next 6 weeks. Channeling this energy into physical exercise or projects with like-mined people might be advisable.
Monday late evening, feels a little uneasy. We need to develop an inner awareness around our two seemingly opposite pulls: on the one hand,…
