“I can't thank you enough for the incredible adventure in astrology. You have that rare gift that certainly all who call themselves astrologers don't possess... you're the real deal!! It seriously blew me away that you were able to not only nail so much from my past (exact times/years certain events took place, along with situations with family, relationships and beyond) but you've already helped with my present! The answers you gave to the specific questions I asked pertaining to important career-related happenings this week have already proven true. I will look forward to an update in a year or so.”

Astro-logical Forecast for Thursday 1/3/2013: A Day for Clearing Out Cobwebs

Most of the U.S. will be waking up just before an indulgent challenge between Moon in exacting, prissy Virgo and Venus in rumpled, rowdy Sagittarius (exact at 7:15AM ET), at which point Moon goes void until 8:11PM ET. Efforts to get it right and/or please your partner(s) may be criticized over form, not content…and with the Moon void-of-course, howls of dismay may spin out of control. If only that exacting Moon could take a chill pill, it might benefit from the innovative ideas and communication that will no doubt burst upon the scene, courtesy of a challenge between mental Mercury and rebel, cobweb-blasting Uranus.

That Mercury-Uranus challenge was certainly in effect yesterday, as stunned lawmakers were shocked, shocked I tell you — that the 112th Congress went home for good, yet failed to vote on a bill that would have provided billions of dollars to help the folks in New York and New Jersey who are still struggling to recover from Hurricane Sandy. OK, what do you expect from a Congress recently pronounced the most unproductive in U.S. history, as Gail Collins cheerfully explains. Still, New York Congressman Peter King, himself a Republican, was so irked that he told Fox News that any New Yorker who gave money to a Republican Congressperson was “out of their minds”. Holy floodlights, Batman! Could Rep. King have been suggesting that because a billionaire or a corporation in New York gives a ton of money to a Congressman, the New York donors should expect something in return from that Congressman, even if he might have allegedly been elected to office by some people in…Ohio? Why…I’m shocked, shocked! Mercury-Uranus strikes again!

: )

In other news, Al-Jazeera is buying Current TV, the network co-founded by Al Gore. Incredible! And a new study suggests that “Fat per se is not as bad as we thought,” That’s right – your saddlebag thighs are fabulous and they are not a threat to your health! Amazing! And did you know that a 22-year-old woman of Russian-Jewish descent “almost single-handedly wrote women’s rights into the Constitution of modern Japan“?! Her name was Beate Gordon, and she passed away in Manhattan this week. She led a fascinating life…and her contribution to Japan’s Constitution gave more rights to Japanese women than women have in America. Stunning!

And finally, speaking of fascinating and fat, would you believe that author/filmmaker Michael Moore has a new calling: fitness guru! For the past nine months, he’s worked tirelessly to get people off the couch and on their feet, with utterly inspiring results. Who knew?

What flashes of brilliance and insight will you encounter today in your own personal world? Really, the sky’s the limit, especially under the auspices of a harmonious connection between physical Mars and expansive Jupiter. Optimism and vigorous exercise of mind and body…with a little something for the soul, too. Your soul will thank you if you can take time to chill and/or brainstorm a bit during this long Moon void. At the very least, go for a walk.

Moon enters people-pleasing Libra at 8:11PM ET tonight — good for social interaction, preferably with those who have something innovative, intelligent and pleasant to say.

To be continued…

 

Astro-logical Forecast for Wednesday 1/2/2013: Happy ’13!

…and a very Happy New Year, to YOU!

If you’re heading back to the office, you can move with efficiency and attention to detail, courtesy of the Moon in Virgo. Two supportive connections to potent Pluto and disciplined Saturn around 6:30AM ET can push you forward with depth, emotional connection and practical application. A harmonious connection between the earthy Sun in Capricorn and the Virgo Moon is the icing on the cake, only without the sugar crash.

There’s a buzz in the air regarding communication, travel and mindset, courtesy of mental Mercury about to be challenged by the ongoing Uranus-Pluto square (exact Thursday AM and Sunday AM). Talk of rebellion, innovation, revelation, transformation, power plays, resources, corruption exposed and moving beyond borders will likely be front and center in the headlines. You are personally affected by this aspect if you have an angle or planet between 4 and 11 degrees of Aries, Cancer, Libra or Capricorn.

If you have to get something out the door, do it today or Friday. The Moon will be void-of-course from 7:15AM ET to 8:11PM ET on Thursday, so one thing you will want to avoid doing is having the first session of the 113th Congress convene on that…oh…(long pause)…never mind. It’s already on their calendar for 12PM in Washington DC. (cue sound of head banging on wall now). Sigh. More on the significance of that event in tomorrow’s forecast. Apparently there is a silver lining…

So. What do planetary patterns suggest for 2013, and what does it mean to you? I will tell you over the next few days in detailed discussions of the following:

  • Uranus in Aries square Pluto in Capricorn
  • Neptune in Pisces
  • Saturn in Scorpio
  • Jupiter in Gemini and Cancer

Right now I would like to share a little New Year’s Eve story. For some reason during the void-of-course Moon in Leo on Monday, I was inspired to shred all the receipts from 2000-2005 that I’d carefully organized in accordion files — one for each year.  Apparently you don’t have to keep these files for more than seven years, and I really wanted to create some space in my storage closet. Now as you know, Moon voids suggest a surprise twist or delay in project undertaken during such times. And boy was I surprised to discover — in the file for 2003– three friends from the Stone People Family.Really, who keeps rocks and crystals in their tax receipt files, especially a folder labelled “Office Supplies”.

First:  a large amethyst crystal that fits with perfection in the palm of my hand. I don’t remember how this came into my possession, only that I got it decades ago and obviously had not seen it since 2003. Amethysts are associated with psychic ability. Second: a heart made of rose quartz, which is associated with love. No idea where that stone came from. Third: a small beige-brown stone — perhaps jasper (good for grounding) — upon which is inscribed, “Believe”.  No idea where that came from, either. Any of you psychics out there have a clue?

Such a precious New Year’s gift had to be shared with others. My wish for you, dear Reader, is that you may be blessed with the power of intuition (amethyst), love to heal a broken heart (rose quartz) and faith that stems from a solid foundation (jasper). May these carry through 2013 and always!

And yes, yes, YES…I realize yesterday was a holiday and some of you were still recovering from TMC (too much champagne). So if you’d like to take advantage of my super amazing holiday special (at a perfectly fabulous price), the offer is still valid through today…with gratitude to those of you who asked. Besides, I do not want you to feel like you’re having a day like the two dinosaurs in this very clever cartoon…
