The Stars gear us towards renewal, but still, there are a few hold- backs!


Feel like you are poised towards accomplishment, but still cannot seem, to get things off to a firm start?

Well, you can "Just Blame It On The Stars"!

Yes, Mars, the planet of action, is responsible, for those challenges lately. The ones of trying to move freely, ahead.

However, I am happy to say, by the end of this week that changes!

Because the retrograde motion for Mars, that has been with us since Jan. 23, 2012 ends, Saturday April 14.

And as it returns to normal direction, we in turn will benefit, with a more normal forward direction for our own individual lives. Nice!

But in the meantime this week, we still will have, its backward motion, causing lots of delays, & frustrations.

A lot of them being tied to our finances, and our emotional relationships!

Monday, April 9, brings the beginning of some of that, as the moon in truthful Sagittarius... brings past emotional issues, and surfacing financial truths, that we might not be ready to face.

Guard the way you deal with loved ones, and how you spend your money.

Neither of those areas are under clarity,...through the entire week.

And it could be Monday's April 9, activities, that puts you right into a go-no where, scheme.

Not the best day to run smoothly, with a fire moon, being held back by our picky Virgo, retrograde Mars. All with danger, of accidents that could be in the brew, for our Monday, too!

Slow down, and don't let others push your buttons- it would be doing something in anger, or on impulse, causing you harm.

Tuesday April 10, is somewhat better, but snarled communication, is likely by Tuesday late evening, & early morning Wednesday from a moon, square Mercury.

Wednesday April 11, thoughts about wanting change are likely to greet you early as your day begins?

Just remember Not to jump the fence too far, because what is done on impulse during Wednesday's evening hours EST...can just be the Capricorn moon, in square to Uranus, giving you all that sudden rush for change...that you are likely to regret, by mid day on Thursday.

Thursday April 12, we may find ourselves starting out our day in a serious mood! One in which we seem to want to dig deep!

It's serious Capricorn moon time again... with a conjunction to the planet of upheaval, Pluto. Our serious mood to start out our day, can increase the tendency towards quarreling. And that trend will just intensify, greeting us, Friday, Morning.

Friday April 13? What do they say about that? Lucky? Unlucky?

It is up to you? Yes there ARE difficult planetary aspects, for that day! But aren't there always???

The biggest problem on this Friday, the 13, for all of us... would be, miss use, of our position of power, whatever that would be for you? And how you view yourself, and the world.

All coming from the moon, and its hard to please ruler, Saturn, in Square! Just try extra hard to be patient with yourself, and others.

And if you can do that I'm Ok, You're OK, attitude, peace will reign again nicely as the moon takes its turn in free minded Aquarius, on Saturday, and Sunday.

Just what we need, for a better attitude, all in time to bail out the weekend, and to start that nice new trend, of at last feeling progress towards our goals!

So think positive and enjoy a fun out of the norm, weekend!

Sunday, April 1, 2012

Get ready for more changes in the Star brew, this week!

True! Stand back and get ready for change!!!

Not only do we have the start of a new month, but emotions and finances are in for a change too.

As the planet Venus begins its cycle in Gemini, on Tuesday, EDT at 11:18 a.m.... it will bump right in to the Moon,... in discordant aspect that had just entered Virgo, earlier at 9:53 a.m. EDT.

All by its self, a Virgo moon can increase our tendency to be picky and analytical.
However, add the bump from Venus just starting out in double trouble Gemini? And watch out!

A lot of us, will be more than picky? Many could actually lean towards mean.

And at the very least, mid day on Tuesday, it would be wise to double check any emotional or financial decisions that you might be making all day, on Tuesday.

Also your day's mishaps on Tuesday, can't all be blamed on the moon!

Because the planet Mercury will again be responsible for lots of the day's indecisions. & aggrecations.

Why? Because it appears to stand still as it again gets ready to take up its normal direct motion, once again.

And with that stand still handy-cap, everything gets delayed! Annoying mix ups, and confusion, the result? Not an easy going Tuesday for sure!

Wednesday April 4, stirs things up too. Mercury finally goes direct 7:11 a.m. (EDT) Yes, once again Mercury appears to be traveling forward, at last starting a time frame for YOU to start to move forward again, too!

Spring in general is the natural time for launching new projects, signing contracts, making major purchases, initiating relationships, But recently all being held back some, due to Mercury's retrograde motion the past few weeks.

However, Wednesday this week... begins a better time when all the activities that were verboten during Mercury Retrograde from March 12 to April 4, 2012, are now safe to pursue. Just try to be patient with them and give yourself a break to know it takes time, for new ventures, like seeds, to take hold?

Thursday April 5, is my pick of the week to be the most productive and positive! Try to enjoy it and make it work for you. A Libra moon, that enters our EDT zone, at 11:32 a.m. can really lift our sprits... and lend its self nicely, to any, and all, new starts! Enjoy!

Our work week closes out on Friday April 5, with a Full Libra moon...putting a strong emotional slant on everything! So expect emotions might have a large impact on your general mood. Also there's a tendency to fall for fantasy too on Friday this week, as sweet Venus' will be in stressful square, to surreal Neptune.

In fact, if you give too much of yourself away, on Friday's Full Moon, happening late afternoon 3:19 EDT. Your emotions, and feelings will be a reminder by late evening, as the moon and Saturn co-join.

Try to remember to restore reason and balance to your emotions to have a good weekend, You'll need a little diplomacy! And even more of that and compassion too, in order to manage a edgy Mars-Venus square, rocking relationships by Saturday night.

Sunday, April 8, Easter! We all pull our emotions in, as a Scorpio moon makes us more secretive, and introspective. Just the right frame of mind to be more spiritual, and grateful! Happy Easter Everyone!!!

Sunday, March 25, 2012

Feel like you are back tracking a bit?
Well, you Are! And you can just, blame it on the Stars!

What is happening to give you that trend of repeats, and looking back...is the Planet that rules decissions Mercury, still in retrograde!

Add Sunday's Taurus moon, in a conjunction to Jupiter, and things can get out of hand! Watch those expenditures, and emotions, because what now seems like a good fit, you might very well see very differently in a few weeks.

Monday, March 26, is a bit better, and in fact is my pick of the week, as best to feel a sense of accomplishment, even when you are still dealing with matters that pertain to the past!

Tuesday, March 27, a Gemini moon lends us some energy! And that newly found lift, helps us to make favorable impressions on others, including those in authority.

However, an early morning EDT, moon Uranus negative square aspect, can bring, some nasty surprises! Slow down in travel, and be alert as you make your way to wok, Tuesday, morning.

Wednesday, March 28, pushing yourself and others will bring unnecessary endings. A Sun, Pluto square... creates turmoil around power struggles , and your ego could be the cause of rifts, unnecessary accidents, and explosive behavior.

When the Sun is in Square to Pluto, as it is on Wednesday, and Thursday, this week, we often lose an important celebrity or national role model. Watch the News, for endings, and power struggles.

Thursday, March 29, a moon Mercury square, can make the morning hours difficult, including a down in our general moods. This is a day that gets better as it moves along. The evening hours, bringing some fun, and surprises.

Friday, March 30, keeps that trend of difficult morning hours.

Pluto and the Moon, and Sun, do a negative dance! Slow down, and think, before you make an impulsive headstrong action that causes breakups, and endings. Especially in the morning hours, try to be extra cautious.

Saturday, our thoughts turn back to the basics. And we want to reach out to family. Home concerns take up our attention! Patience! Yes, you are feeling that you have more to do... than what you have time for. All this, as you say good-buy to our very unusual month, of March, 2012

Sunday, new month, April 1, 2012. Don't get fooled!
We welcome our April, with a Fire Leo, moon. A good moon, to make us feel more energized, again! Look for some fun, doing something new, and you'll start out this month, on a Plus!
Happy April everyone!

The Stars This Week: March 19-25, 2012
by Astrology.com March 19, 2012 02:00 AM EST

If You Can Dream It, You Can Do It!

Get ready to enjoy the rush of energy, enthusiasm and inspiration that accompanies the Sun's entrance into Aries on March 19! This week also signals the time of the Spring Equinox, which, along with the confident new Moon in Aries on March 22, always provides an opportunity for a fresh start! Just prepare to tweak some of your ideas as retrograde Mercury returns to spiritual Pisces on March 23.

March 19: The Sun enters Aries

Have you been thinking about turning over a new leaf, or perhaps setting off on an adventure? Anything and everything seem possible now as the Sun enters bold, driven Aries; this is a potent time that marks the Spring Equinox for those above the equator, and the Autumnal Equinox for those below. Are you ready to take initiative? Hopefully you've taken full advantage of all the recent helpful aspects and are now in good position to get your ducks (Rams?) in a row. Draw upon Aries's most courageous attributes to help you remain positive and optimistic now!

March 22: New Moon in Aries

This is no time to be indecisive! Earlier this week, the Sun entered Aries; now, the new Moon occurs in the second degree of this feisty sign, heralding a time of fresh starts. Take the Ram by the horns and do what you can to advance yourself and further your goals. Just keep in mind that Aries is also the sign of the warrior, so be thoughtful of others as you advance your own causes. Uranus and Mercury sit next to this new Moon, a combination that can bring innovative ideas. Follow the lead of writer/philosopher Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832): "Whatever you do -- or dream you can do -- begin it. Boldness has genius and power and magic in it."

March 23: Retrograde Mercury re-enters Pisces

Did you know that daydreaming can actually help you? Often the best ideas come to you during your most relaxed moments. As Mercury, representing all forms of thought and communication, backtracks into the sensitive and spiritual sign of Pisces, you can make the most of this transit by spending time in quiet reflection: Listen to beautiful music, take a walk in the park, record your thoughts in a journal. As you take a step back, you'll feel refreshed and inspired. By April 4, when Mercury turns direct, you'll be ready to put your revamped plans and ideas out into the world!

I see it... as an Interesting week! The Season of Spring begins, while we are still looking behind us for clues from the past.

It is just the planet Mercury moving in retrograde that keeps us tuned-in, to what needs to be re-done? Or changed? So heads- up everyone! Give yourself a break when you find that your are having difficulty making up your mind!!!

Thursday, March 22, will be the one that will be the most difficult to plan, this week... it begins with a new moon, Uranus, conjunction, that brings surprises, and out of the norm happenings! Keep in mind that a new moon day sets the trend for the next 3 weeks! And any turbulence on Thursday can just set the stage for the coming weekend when all that newly found energy and passion on Saturday, and Sunday, gives you complications, that involve others!

Sunday, March 11, 2012

One of our Astrology.com networks asks?

Do you love that feeling you get when everything works out? You know, when you get to places on time and the people around you communicate effectively?

Of course you do ... we all do! Well, savor that feeling because Mercury Retrograde takes effect in just one day.

Don't shoot the messenger! Or if you must, wait until Mercury is direct (because the gun would probably jam, anyway).

Mercury, the planet responsible for our skills in communication, technology and transportation, will begin its three-week backward motion in Aries on Monday, March 12.

During this time we are going to see plenty of hiccups -- communication breakdowns, traffic jams, text misfires and more -- in our day-to-day lives. The uncertainty of this fast-approaching period can be stressful.

But...I say... try to keep in mind, that the planet Mercury's backward trek, about three time a year, really has a positive purpose!

Which is supposed to give us a period of time, to deal with things from our past that need to be handled, again! Things that we did not totally complete properly, or pay necessary attention to.

It also, many times, has a nice way of bringing old friends back into our lives for a visit or phone call...and this can happen now for the next three weeks.

Therefore look, for how Mercury's change in direction, this time of year can be a help, instead of a hindrance.

Monday's, March 12, Star's, with a Scorpio moon at the helm, can make us feel a little reclusive, but that can also work for you if you let it?

Time time to kick back and pay attention to your priorities, helpful for all signs to remember.

But most important for the signs of Scorpio, Taurus, Aquarius and Leo, to remember. Especially when we are dealing with matters of the heart or our pocket books?

Why? Because Venus and Jupiter are in a aspect called a conjunction, Monday through Friday of this week. Which can make us go overboard when we suddenly seem to desire something emotionally or financially.

And lots of thought about new, and old love relationships, and how we like to spend money will be talked about, and contemplated all week.

Mars, the planet of action too gets into our desire to "act", and get things done, all week.

And with the planet Pluto in positive aspect to Mars, now Retrograde also....in the sign of thoughtful, Virgo! Wow, we are geared towards lots of positive thoughtful, emotional, desire for expansion!

So try to use it wisely, and check back to learn what else...you can...
"Just Blame It On The Stars"

This week change, is in the Air!

Relationships and emotions change this week, as the planet of love, Venus moves... into loving Taurus on Monday for a month-long visit.


Best to accept what can't be changed and find pleasure without paying for it, by giving yourself a chance to rest and relax.

The self-acceptance offered by this easygoing transit provides a solid foundation for dealing with more complex interactions later in the week, including the Full Moon in picky Virgo, on Thursday morning.

A Jupiter, Pluto, Trine aspect...over the weekend into Sunday March 11, makes for the perfect time for positive upheaval.

So what is it in your life that you want to change? Even if it hurts?

It can gear you up, for more change on Monday, March, 12, as the planet Mercury goes retrograde, again. Check back, to learn what that might mean to you, next week!

Sunday, February 26, 2012

Nice to have a, Astrological positive lift... as our Week begins.


And you can...Just Blame it on the moon's entrance into Taurus, at around 9:30 a.m. est on Sunday, Feb. 26....

That Taurus moon, making its way to a conjunction by Sunday night, as it co-joins the expansive planet Jupiter, also in Taurus...

lifts our moods... and makes us more optimistic, helping us to expand our horizons. Good for all signs, but especially so for the earth and water signs...Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn, Scorpio, Pisces, & Cancer.

And I am happy to say, that mostly positive attitude can follow us right through Tuesday, Feb 28. With both Monday and Tuesday, good ones, to get a lot accomplished!!!

So what is it you have been putting off? Time to dust off those old ideas, and regain your confidence.

Or, do your home work to define your goals? Not only will the moon's influence, help with that! But a Sun, Pluto, positive aspect on Monday and Tuesday, can make you a super detective, in sorting out all sorts of facts. Enjoy!!!

Wednesday, Feb 29, a day that only happens every four years, also looks intriguing...but not as easy. The moon's influence that will be coming from its monthly visit into Gemini, will produce a few ego challenges. With the tendency of double trouble snarled communication, right into Friday morning, March, 2.

Therefore, expect to welcome our new month of March, 2012 on Thursday... with some aggravations that can effect both your, attitude, and energy. Best to slow down, in all areas...think before you speak and act impulsively...the moon will be challenging Mars!

Friday morning, March 2, the stars can be really tricky...
as the moon sets us up for out of the ordinary experiences!

First, it challenges, Mercury, making it difficult with communication and travel. And then it changes to its own sign of Cancer, at around 10:08 a.m.est, and heads to a conflict with the planet of the unusual, Uranus. Oh my! It will be the weird that is likely to be the norm for all of Friday.

And the weekend??? Better check back to see, just what you too, can Just Blame It On The Stars!!!
