Lunar Balance (April 15 Lunar Eclipse in Libra)

-
The Lunar Eclipse at Libra 25 degrees brings upheaval that ultimately brings greater balance.


As the Lunar Eclipse at 25 degrees Libra fast approaches, our focus shifts to the areas of our life out of balance.  This happens on an individual and global levels.  Libra represents justice, balance, harmony in relationships or disharmony, partnerships, commitments and how we attract and perceive beauty.

I find that this Lunar Eclipse has some unique features. First, it's at 25 degrees Libra mirroring a polar opposite Lunar Eclipse in Aries 25 degrees that took place in October 2013.  Either events from six months ago come to completion or they repeat themselves until balance is restored.

Second, the Lunar Eclipse at 25 degrees conjuncts the North Node in Libra at 28 degrees direct (usually the nodes are retrograde).  North Nodes represent destiny so where we are heading as a planet and as individuals.  In this case, we look at how we process emotions and how we relate to others in committed relationships or partnerships.  We must heal passive-aggressive behavior and other mind games we play on the people in our lives.  Libra has a tendency to compromise its best interests to make peace and then resent the situation and people involved with the compromise.  It's the "I'm alright dear, you do what you want" attitude when the person desperately wants the opposite scenario.  When people act passive aggressive they end up pleasing no one and lack a real personality.  It's easy to abandon passive-aggressive people because they're overly pleasing and boring.  They also drain other people of energy.  This North Node helps us heal passive-aggressive attitudes.

Third, the Moon passes over Mars in Libra (RX) prior to the Lunar Eclipse.  Again, we get the message of healing passive-aggressive behaviors. We learn about self-honoring and pleasing ourselves so that we have more energy to offer others.  It's time to heal repressed anger and come out of denial about our deeper emotions.  Stop judging ourselves for feeling darker emotions and stop projecting our darker energies on others.

Fourth, Pluto is stationary retrograde as the Moon approaches the eclipse which calls our attention to transformation.  Pluto is also moving into a Cardinal Grand Square with Mars, Uranus, and Jupiter (exact on April 23).

A Capricorn Sense of Humor

  Yes, Virginia, Capricorns Have a Sense of Humor Often I hear from others that Capricorns don't have a sense of humor. And it's true that many astrologers have painted a bleak and doom picture of our Capricorn friends. I have a Capricorn Rising Sign and half of my birth family is Capricorn. We have enjoyed raucous laughter. So, let me tell you about Capricorn humor. It's not as refined as Libra wit nor does it fall in line with Scorpionic dark humor or Sagittarius vulgar humor. And yet, Capricorn humor contains elements of vulgarity, darkness, and refinement. And it is as quirky as Aquarius humor and as surreal as Pisces humor. And yet, it is in a league of its own. Let's gaze at the humor of actresses Julia-Louise Dreyfus and Diane Keaton. I really only remember Julia-Louise from her Seinfeld days. I never watched any of the movies in which she appeared. This comedic actress wed physical humor with surrealism and she wasn't shy of express

Eat, Pray, Astrology (Liz Gilbert's Chart)

Liz Gilbert, TED TALKS Whole Astrology is now over four years old. I'm pulling this article from the 2012 archives. It as popular when I first posted it so I'm sure it's still of interest. I mentioned Liz Gilbert in my article on meditation by planet.  Then a colleague sent me sent me this chart   You can also view the chart below. Cancer Sun Aries AC Virgo Moon  I doubt that Liz Gilbert was born at 12:00 p.m. and usually when a person is given an Aries AC at 12:00 p.m. it is because a birth time is missing, not always though.  I don't see any yods in the chart, but if these are the right houses for Liz, then we can see where the events of "Eat, Pray, Love" came from. Star IQ Astrology site In the seventh house (of marriage), Liz has Uranus and Jupiter at 0 degrees Libra , a perfect conjunction.  Since the planets are at 0 degrees Libra, they have just entered that sign, and the Libran energies of partnership would feel new to the natal Jupit

Uranus Transits from 1930s to 2019---Radical Change

-

For the past several months, I've been researching the ways Uranus has ushered in changes through several decades beginning in the 1940s. Originally, I was considering writing a series with PDFs for each transit per sign along with podcasts. But now, I'm considering writing a book that will include the 1960s transits and the Uranus transits. For now, I'm going to include a brief article featuring each Uranus transit and the events and people that appeared during those times. The equation is Uranus' shocking grassroots energy + the themes of each Zodiac Sign. Uranus also formed a conjunction with Pluto in the 1960s. And after the Harmonic Convergence, the late 1980s, Uranus, Neptune, and Saturn formed a powerful Triple Conjunction in Capricorn. We're currently seeing the kids born during that time taking leadership positions (Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for starters). The dates below sometimes don't include the dip back into the previous Z
