For the third and last time this year, the Jupiter-Neptune square is taking over the skies. This is our last shot at discerning the transit’s dreams, passions and existential questions. Since 2019 began, we’ve been trying to put together the ideological heat of Jupiter with the oceanic yearnings of Neptune. Every time the square has […]

The heat of fixed fire sets the tone this month. The Sun is in Leo for the first part of the month, as it always is in August; this particular August, Mercury is in Leo, too, for the second part of the month. But there’s an awful lot of Virgo going on as well. Conscientious […]

As July begins, the atmosphere is heavy with the portents of the recent Solstice (6/21): an annual milestone that marks the astrological beginning of summer.

When the Sun hits zero Aries, it is like the blast of a trumpet announcing the three months to come: Spring in the Northern Hemisphere. On another level, because this is the first degree of the first sign, it inaugurates […]

The month begins with the potential for power plays. Mars squares Pluto on Feb first. The transit is notorious because of the fiery impulses it can unleash.
