Weekly Weather August 3, 2015
On a vacation and workation in New Mexico so apologies for the late posting of the column! New Mexico is truly the Land of Enchantment!!
The week ahead has many, many, MANY changes. The SATURNNADO takes off swiftly moving, as Saturn starts to move forward off his stationing degree of 28:17 Scorpio. Full steam ahead, Saturn is heading toward Sagittarius which he enters on September17! Between now and then, but PARTICULARLY THIS WEEK ~ Saturn marks the major endings and new beginnings of many life altering changes in our lives! The Tornado that is Saturn in Scorpio takes off and moves through the last two degrees of Scorpio ending and transforming forever the people, situations and format of our lives! Look to where the degrees 28 and 29 of Scorpio are in your chart to see the location where the transformation will take place. Think back to December 8 to 23, 2014 to see the stories wrapping up. Look at other planets at 28 or 29 or 0 or 1 degrees in your chart to see what areas Saturn is stimulating and changing with his SATURNADO!
There are many opportunities to say yes to major life changes. Say yes to offers that look appealing even if you don’t know exactly how you are going to actually do it. (We figure out how to actually do it all next years!) All the closing aspects for the Moons this week are extremely positive and in the first quadrant of me, myself and I. The Moons are Pisces, Aries, Taurus and Gemini. Venus, Mercury and Jupiter all square Saturn and sesquiquadrate Pluto offering us choices, crystal clear vision, endings, and transformation. We have to take action with squares. With Sesquiquadrates, we feel stressed and then we have to take action. The key word is taking action! The actions are geared toward building our next chapter of life as Saturn builds, crystalizes and constructs. The Pluto actions are focused on transformation, evolution and change of a deep and profound nature.
Added into the mix Jupiter meets up with Venus and Mercury to start a new 12 Year cycle around desire, love, money and communications, siblings and ideas. This will be the last time Mercury and Venus meet with Jupiter in Leo until 2026. This week, Venus whispers in Jupiter’s ear on August 4 and shares her visions, hopes and dreams for the next 12 years of your life in the houses ruled by Taurus, and Libra as well as the house Venus lives in. Mercury talks to Venus on August 6 expressing her wishes to her good buddy. Make sure you express your wishes clearly! State your heart’s desire about how you want things to manifest in your life. Allow your planets to speak clearly (even if your dreams and heart’s desire kind of scares you a bit!). Venus can still revise or modify her wishes as she is retrograde but she’ll be whispering to a Jupiter in Virgo when she next talks to him. So express her HEART desires this week on August 4th. And use the POSITIVE version of what you want. You don’t want “cheap” ~ you want “generous”
Mercury’s square to Saturn and sesquiquadrate to Pluto asks us to be very clear about what we do or do NOT want to do. Even if you find it a bit stressful, state your truth. There is a firm good bye or ending to a situation on Friday that needs to leave. Over the weekend, Mercury has a health or adjusting aspect which requires us to rapidly respond. After Mercury expresses his wishes to Venus, Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto, he changes signs to one he LOVES! Mercury enters Virgo for 21 days on August 7 making our minds much more focused, precise and communicative. He’s going to develop a to-do list for the rest of your planets to follow! He’s the hub of the wheel of communications as everyone gets ready to take off on their next phases.
Mars at the last degrees of Cancer trines stationing Saturn in the last degrees of Scorpio. These two intense emotional signs ask us to clearly act in accordance with our vision and heart and perhaps let the last vestiges of an emotional situation go. Lots of letting go energy as well as creating energy this week. Take a different approach to nurturing or don’t feel obligated to nurture if you don’t want to. Go “Hmmm. Okay let me get back to you on that.” In the meantime, the other person will find someone else to take care of them. You don’t have to do it. Focus on your dream and gently walk away from situations you don’t want to be in any more. Mars enters Leo on August 8 until September 24. He’s going to take action on the to-do list that the Sun, Jupiter, Mercury and Venus have make for him. Act in accordance with your higher heart or path’s good! Mars in Leo will activate and encourage us to TAKE ACTIONS guided by our HEART. We’ll act or do things in our Leo house using as inspiration the energy stimulated by Jupiter (relationships), Mercury (communications and siblings), Venus (love, desire, money) and Sun (ego, soul purpose and expression of self).
Saturn is simply EVERY WHERE as he slowly starts to move forward. We’ll feel the turbulence until Friday August 7. We are having SATURNnado ~ a TORNADO of Saturn rolling through our life as he stops in the sky. He’s gonna swirl us! Get ready! SATURNNADO!!! Jesus Ward created the Saturn-NADO image. Jesus does brilliant work! Check him out at JESUSNYC.com.
Even though the energy is pretty positive this week, we still have to work with Saturn too. EACH OF US are going to have a sit down with Saturn as he leaves the last degrees of Scorpio. The moment of truth is here. What have you learned since Saturn entered Scorpio in October 2012? Where has your life taken you? What has died? What has transformed? What have you learned about the deep, dark space of Scorpio in your chart and your life? Scorpio in the growing season is when everything dies due the killing frost. The leaves fall off the trees. We can see the houses, hidden all summer by foliage, now that the trees are undressed. Where were you undressed in your life? Where did you die? Scorpio is when the egg and the sperm get together and make a baby… they both die and are transformed into a new life. Where were you transformed into a new life? The eighth house is the psychological issues we create in our own psyches from our parents’ and society’s teachings. What psychological issues have you been grappling with the past two and a half years? What is the space of growth? What have you outgrown? What emotional swamps have you spent two years of your life swimming through? Get clear on all these questions. And love the unresolved spaces.
During this week (or next) Saturn is going to come and have a chat with you. He’s going to ask and expect you to answer some or all of the questions above. Be ready when he arrives!!
Venus squares with Saturn (SLOWLY APPROACHING!!) We are crystal clear about what we love. If we have any doubts, we see things we never saw before. No more partnering with drama, limitations or crazy. We are DONE! We are crystal clear about what we want to playfully and lovingly create and how we want to love., 2015 at . Venus clears her shadow on October 9, 2015 at and enters Virgo again Venus continues to unite with the freedom impulse as she works with Stationing Uranus and stationing Saturn. Expect shocks, excitement, financial reversals, changes, shifts and mooney action around the areas in your chart ruled by the Goddess of Love (Taurus and Libra houses).
Venus meets Jupiter and starts a new 12 year cycle around her desires. She doesn’t meet up with Jupiter again for 12 years so take time this week or next to sit with yourself and initiate, create a list, have a ritual about what you want to expand around love, money, desire, and abundance over the next 12 years. Also think about where you want to shine or grow your Venus energy.
Venus sesquiquadrates Pluto and squares Saturn and Admetos over August 4 and 5 inviting us to continue to let go and release the old that holds us back and doesn’t support where we are next going. Done. Done. Done!
Big break up and leaving aspects this week as the planets meet in stressful aspects. Jupiter is about to leave Leo and go into Virgo where he is much more sober and hard working. We will dissolve partnerships that seemed very solid, stable and reliable to the outside world. It is time for a solo journey ~ Virgo is the sign of the Virgin and solitary monk after all.
Before he enters Virgo, Jupiter squares Saturn and Admetos and sesquiquadrates Pluto, ENDING, FOR EVER, a situation that needs to change, wrap up or be banished from your life. This potent t-square of Jupiter, Saturn and Admetos with a kick of evolutionary energy from Pluto takes place between August 3 and August 9, shifting profoundly the focus and direction of your life. Allow the shift to happen. Pay attention to your Leo, Capricorn, Scorpio and Taurus houses to see how it plays out. This is why Saturn went back into Scorpio and what you need to end, release or change to really be free to pursue the next chapter of your life. Evolve and grow! Don’t be afraid.
Sun seeks to understand patterns from the larger, inspirational perspective with his trine to Pluto. We’ll be working quite a bit with what you come to understand or the offers you receive on Monday and Tuesday. We’ll work with them over the next year as the upcoming T-square aspects these points. There is a releasing and health adjustment so take aggressive action on all health matters. Sun makes choices about relationships on Sunday. Choose the people you want to keep in your life.
Uranus brings you news of unusual relationships or partnerships. Move towards the interesting or unusual information or people that you meet this week. This information or person is part of your new life or direction.
Pluto’s trine to Juno invites partnerships and deeper connections with the people you love and want to create with.
Pallas stations and turns direct on August 3, 2015 after ending or avoiding a situation that you didn’t want to do. Time for freedom of a different sort as you follow YOUR vision or inspiration about what YOU want to do. Go for it!!
Ceres enters Capricorn, moving retrograde and staying in Capricorn until October 27, 2015. Nurture yourself with discipline. This is an excellent time to start a health regime, take up an exercise discipline, re-engage with or begin a self-care project, STOP nurturing folks who don’t really need it, let go or change the WAY you nurture or care for others. All part of the changes you need to make to get ready for the work of the rest of the year.
All the Moons have positive closing aspects this week meaning EMOTIONALLY we are completely in sync with what we have to do.
Void Moons in the Week Ahead: When the Moon is Void, it is wise to avoid making important decisions as they tend to be unrealistic, and subject to false starts, errors or unexpected hassles. Avoid being concerned with things beyond your spiritual center. It is time for subjective, spiritual and non-materialistic concerns. Kick back, let life flow, and center yourself. Connect into your essential oneness with the Universal Forces.

RIP Cecil: Here’s Cecil with his woman. Many of you wrote asking about the wildness of the universal response to Cecil’s death. It is a great example of the collective hooking into a story that reflects something deeper about your personal soul and your journey of the heart. As for the astrology, Cecil was shot July 1. As of July 8, the story was out there. Venus stationing at 0 Virgo, on Regulus ~ the HEART OF THE LION star ~ brought the story wild internet fame. Cecil was a kind of pet (Virgo rules domesticated animals). Cecil was comfortable with humans so the deception to get him out of his safety zone (see Pluto and Saturn) and into a “legal” space to shoot him. He was wounded for 40 hours until they actually shot him….totally the Saturn stationing opposite Admetos. The wide spread desire to hunt the dentist down and shoot him, that would be Mars in Cancer ~ the desire to protect one’s family member. So look where YOU hooked into the story emotionally to see the area that is up for change in YOUR life.
