Mercury, the planet of communication goes direct tomorrow,
Tuesday, August 16. Mercury has been retrograde in Leo, which
relates to 5th house matters: Children, friends, relationships.
Those who have been effected by this this transit the most
should understand that now that Mercury is going direct,
opportunities should begin to unfold for things to straighten
out, or mistakes corrected.
Mercury is actually now in a phase known as stationary through
Sunday, August 21, before picking up steam. In "The art of
Predictive Astrology,' author Carol Rushman writes, "When
Mercury stations in Leo, or the 5th house, the mental energy is
expressed in a strong and very definite manner. Positions are
taken, and almost impossible to change. Overconfidence and
egotism regarding one's decisions may be present. Any project
started will be seen through conclusion even if it is an an idea
that doesn't have merit.
Hopefully, the energy over the next few days will bring positive
opportunities, and a chance to experience things in a clear

Fast and furiously we're approaching mid month with an Aquarius Full
Moon on the 19th and the Sun entering Virgo on the 22nd. We begin
getting the cooperation from others we've been seeking, along with much
more detailed, intriguing and even stimulating conversations that will
alter our perspectives. We'll 'learn' a lot over the next 3.5 to 4
weeks ahead.

Major Planetary Movement, What It Means for YOU

Major Planetary Movement, What It Means for YOU

You should be on a roll following yesterday's lunar entry into Aries. Nevertheless, alarm bells are ringing as Mars forms a contra-parallel to Uranus (2:19AM PDT) and Juno in Taurus moves 150 degrees to Pluto in Sagittarius (12:35PM PDT).

The Mars-Uranus encounter can bring up shocking and surprising information and events. These disturbing circumstances may also harken back to activities from May 15 and May 19 when Mars joined Uranus in Pisces and both planets converged in a parallel alignment.

The Juno-Pluto contact is a warning about the current state of affairs in love, marriage and primary partnerships. If you are off course and your moral compass is askew, it's time to return to simple, open and honest communications. Luckily, Juno is also making a 72-degree contact with Uranus (9:08AM PDT). This serves to add some helpful intelligence and wisdom to your decision-making process regarding relationships. The best news of the days involves the Moon in Aries connecting with Mercury in Leo (4:44PM PDT) and Pluto in Sagittarius (8:51PM PDT) in a grand triangle in fire signs. The afternoon and evening can be chock full of literary, scientific, psychological, musical or artistic insights.

Moon in Leo

2005-07-21T11:38:00.000-07:00

Moon in Leo

Regardless of whether you're a male or female, the very first love of your life was your mother (or if mom was absent, then another mother figure in your environment). The Moon symbolizes the unconscious, instincts, and what you need to feel nurtured in your life.

With the Moon in Leo, you are emotionally generous and very warmhearted. You have a strong emotional need for praise and attention. Under stress you may show off in order to gain attention, or become a wee bit arrogant. As a very young child, you may been very proud of your mother, or you feel she was specially proud of you. You probably saw Mom as being a powerful, warm-hearted, special, and creative woman. The Moon is the "place" where we go for comfort when scared.... and we tend to unconsciously nurture ourselves in much the same way our mothers nurtured and cared for us when we were very young children. Therefore, when under stress, you have an instinctual need to feel special, unique, and recognized. Feeling proud of yourself is how you feel the safest, the most loved, and the most nurtured. You may also have a maddening tendency toward "one-upmanship" (i.e. "anything you can do, I can do better").

MARS SPECTACULAR!

2005-06-22T21:23:00.000-07:00

MARS SPECTACULAR!

The Red Planet is about to be spectacular! This month and next, Earth
is catching up with Mars in an encounter that will culminate in the
closest approach between the two planets in recorded hist. The
next time Mars may come this close is in 2287. Due to the way
Jupiter's gravity tugs on Mars and perturbs its orbit, astronomers
can only be certain that Mars has not come this close to Earth in the
Last 5,000 years, but it may be as long as 60,000 years before it
happens again.

The encounter will culminate on August 27th when Mars comes to within
34,649,589 miles of Earth and will be (next to the moon) the
brightest object in the night sky. It will attain a magnitude of -2.9
and will appear 25.11 arc seconds wide. At a modest 75-power
magnification, Mars will look as large as the full moon to the naked
eye. Mars will be easy to spot. At the beginning of August it will
rise in the east at 10p.m. and reach its azimuth at about 3 a.m..

By the end of August, when the two planets are closest, Mars will
rise at nightfall and reach its highest point in the sky at 12:30
a.m. That's pretty convenient to see something that no human being
has seen in recorded hist. So, mark your calendar at the beginning
of August to see Mars grow progressively brighter and brighter
throughout the month.
Share this with your children and grandchildren. NO ONE ALIVE TODAY
WILL EVER SEE THIS AGAIN!

Weekly LifeCycles June 19th - June 25th

This is a big week this week with the summer solistice on Tuesday and a full moon in capricorn Wednesday. This would be a very good time to get rid of some personal burdens and solidify financial matters.

Weekly Consciousness Tune-Up

Delete, Delete!

The energy this week is supporting us to clean house internally. The best way to illustrate this concept is by observing the miracle of the human body. Whatever the body finds to be a threat or harmful, it gets rid of. If this threat is not removed, it will make the body sick.

The spiritual world is structured the same way. And if only our negativity would come out as waste, then we’d be in great shape!

But most of us don’t remove our “mental” garbage, and our relationships get sick as a result.

So how do we do this? The answer lies in grasping the difference between restriction and suppression.

What usually happens to us once we’ve stepped onto the spiritual path is we feel guilty when a reaction bubbles to the surface, so we stuff it back down. We have an issue with a friend, but we tell ourselves, ‘I’d better restrict.’ But what we really do is suppress the feeling. The anger or frustration or sadness doesn’t go away – it gets filed away.

We build up stacks of files on others but we never bother to delete them. And these files build up until finally they corrupt the relationship. You see, all these negative files take up space in our spiritual memory bank, space that could be filled with Light.

Every time we are confronted with this same person, our perception of them is clouded by the negative memory banks. There is no way to communicate with them from a place of Light, even if we would like to do so.

‘Restrict’ doesn’t mean laying blame upon others. Other people are not the cause for our pain and suffering. What it does mean is first allowing ourselves to feel the emotion. We are not made of wood after all, and getting to the point of being able to restrict a reaction even before it happens takes lots of practice.

So we first have to be honest with ourselves about what we feel. Our next step is to remember what we talk about often in the tune ups - we create every situation in our lives, whether through previous actions or words, in this incarnation or another. And it is through these uncomfortable opportunities that we transform the most.

It goes back to that timeless question – ‘Why is this happening to me? What is my lesson?’

This is how we can best delete our negative files. And even better, create Light files in their place. Have a great week!

2005-05-20T01:45:00.000-07:00

Lots of stuff going on in the planet department. It is very important that right now you send out the positive vibes. This is a reconcilition situation. If you send out very positive, confident energy right now, it will come back three fold. There is a gret amount of metaphysical activity with lots of Vesta Taurus activity.

This is also an excellent time to realign your finances. With Venus in Gemini.

Now the one thing that really makes the difference here is that with Mercury sextile Uranus good things are waiting in the wings. The light is definately here and we are at the end of the tunnel. For all of you patient types that enjoy arts and crafts this is a great time for you to work on your projects you are very creative right now and this wold be very theraputic.

Water and emotions will be a theme today, plumbing problems, travel and other routine activities may not go as smooth as we'd like, but the upside wil

Water and emotions will be a theme today, plumbing problems, travel and other routine activities may not go as smooth as we'd like, but the upside will show itself later!
The Moon conjuncts Mars in the morning, a good time for clearing out the cobwebs to prepare for the New Moon in Taurus!

2005-04-27T00:20:00.000-07:00

Here is your planet stuff for today:

After today's rather quiet activities in the heavens, you will have to run a marathon race from Wednesday to Saturday. Factor that information into your affairs during this 24-hour time-period in order not to get exhausted. Sagittarius Moon is a welcome relief following the weekend Full Moon and yesterday's Mars-Jupiter fracas. Lighten your burdens, tell a few jokes and don't take yourself so seriously. Sports, games and friendly sharings are back in style. Shop for athletic gear or outfits. One of the best times of the day for hobbies and crafts is 4:27PM PDT during a Moon-Mercury trine in fire signs. This is also a terrific opportunity to mail delayed correspondence or work on a literary project. The foregoing is magnified a little over an hour later when Mercury makes a subtle and yet supportive 30-degree alignment with its higher octave planet Uranus (5:30PM PDT). Studies in science, metaphysics and philosophy look promising throughout the evening. Just after the midnight hour (12:07AM PDT tomorrow), the Sun and Mars reach a contra-parallel. This is somewhat similar to the Mars-Pluto encounter from April 21. Turn in early tonight, get extra rest and take a rain check on joining any emotional debates.

This is certainly a day where values are tested and emotions are stirred. Albeit a fruitful Scorpio Full Moon Eclipse, you may find yourself sacrifici

2005-04-26T02:04:00.000-07:00

This is certainly a day where values are tested and emotions are stirred. Albeit a fruitful Scorpio Full Moon Eclipse, you may find yourself sacrificing harmony; although it would be prudent to not compromise your morals, values, and principals---- in order to achieve major 'growth' ---and by making the most 'wise' decision regarding the choices you've created will indeed renew your direction.

Whatever activity you choose to engage in today and this evening, make certain that these activities are spiritually fulfilling, fun and fruitful. And those people whom you choose to interact with, must be those whom you truly care about and vice versa. Nothing casual about today!

Your reality of today, as well as those benefits you experience from activities pursued today will provide you a great revelation.

Thank the Universe on the Full Moon for all of your blessings, and expect the hard truth to be exposed today, and a cleansing of old Karma!

2005-04-26T02:03:00.000-07:00

Thank the Universe on the Full Moon for all of your blessings, and expect the hard truth to be exposed today, and a cleansing of old Karma!
Get ready for the 'shift'!
We are the ones we've been waiting for!
New Moon in Taurus two weeks from now!

Sunday Squares.

2005-04-11T04:56:00.000-07:00

Sunday Squares.

A square of the Aries Sun and Saturn in Cancer started the dour day. You can get something done though. If the sun is shining where you live today, you're the exception, though you may be tired. A good day to rest.

The afternoon square of the Taurus Moon and Mars in Aquarius makes for more challenges, and we are at odds with ourselves or others now. Lay low.

The Moon also squares with Neptune in Aquarius and we may want to avoid socializing, unless we have to.
The is a late night sextile to the Moon to Saturn, so if you're up late, the day ends on a note of accomplishment! Better late than never!
Venus trines PLuto in the early morning hours of Monday, so this aspect is in effect today as well, since it is between Planets, and is a great aspect in the background. Good things are happening 'out of sight'.
Mondays' forecast improves!

New Moon! Here's another reminder to make your wish list this week!

New Moon! Here's another reminder to make your wish list this week!
( http://alllifecycles.blogspot.com/ )

New Moon in Aries!

10 wishes, related to Aries, the sign of creativity, new beginnings, passion, fearlessness, projects, and energy!

Sample: I wish to experience a new found passion for life, and for my creativity to be rewarded easily happily and quickly!

An Eclipse is also taking place, thus what has formerly been 'hidden' will be revealed, as that is the job of an Eclipse, and why they are 'feared'.

Expect the agendas of others in your lives to be revealed, as we may appear selfish or self-absorbed at this point, as it should be, as this New Moon is about the 'I', and if you don't take care of Number One, someone else may have to, and then our energies are scattered, and little is accomplished.

Today is the day to Focus, direct your will, and look deep into your heart for the reason you came here in the first place, to realize your hearts' desires!

Don't get caught off-guard!

2005-04-05T04:57:00.000-07:00

Don't get caught off-guard!
Four Squares and one sextile mark this day of challenges!
Moon squares Mercury to start the day off, so communication is highlighted first thing!

Then, the Moon sextiles Uranus in the middle of the day, and is our best hope for ease and success!

After that, the Moon squares the Sun, and we're emotionally challenged to make positive changes, without distress.
The Moon squares Venus next and we need to watch our pocketbooks!
Spending on loved ones can put a cramp in our style, but hey! You get what you give, just try not to overdo it.

The last aspect is the Moon squaring Jupiter and we can't help ourselves, too much is just not enough! You could just stay home, but even that might prove expensive!

The Moon is now in practical Capricorn opposing Saturn in moody Cancer forming somewhat of a Grand Cross. A great time to frame photos or art, 'line things up', and precision comes easily under this aspect!

The Moon's happy in outgoing Sagittarius trining Mercury(our minds), Venus(what we love and value) and the Sun (our will) in Aries

2005-04-05T04:55:00.001-07:00

The Moon's happy in outgoing Sagittarius trining Mercury(our minds), Venus(what we love and value) and the Sun (our will) in Aries
as well as sextile energetic Mars in Aquarius and too much is not enough Jupiter in thoughtful Libra. It doesn't get any better than this, so enjoy the 'rewards' and opportunities you recieve on this day!

Tonight at 8:30MDT Venus and the Sun are conjunct in Aries, and Love and passion are in the air, so tell someone you love them, and don't be surprised if you get the same response! This aspect is for the heart, new beginnings, self love, and creativity! All leading to the second step in the near future, so enjoy the now!

The Moon sextiles Pluto in Sagittarius early Sunday morning and is the best aspect of the day, so opportunities to catch up on our rest took place, ho

2005-04-05T04:55:00.000-07:00

The Moon sextiles Pluto in Sagittarius early Sunday morning and is the best aspect of the day, so opportunities to catch up on our rest took place, hope you benefited!

After that the Moon goes void of course between Libra and Scorpio, and we feel directionless, and a little 'spaced out'.

Then, at 11:30am MDT in the Morning, when the Moon finally enters Scorpio, and it's Mars, Mars Mars!!! Time to fix something of express whatever you've been holding back.

In the evening, the Scorpio Moon is at odds with Mars in Aquarius, and we may experience disruptions, break downs, and intense emotions. The Scorpio moon loves hearty laughfter
and good jokes, so get out your Robin Williams DVD, Live, from a few years ago, and laugh the Sunday evening away. It's a gut-buster, as he has the Moon in Scorpio himself!

The day starts off with the trine of the Moon in Leo to Pluto in Sagittarius! Great for feeling rested and enthusiastic about the day, like getting up

2005-03-26T19:48:00.001-08:00

The day starts off with the trine of the Moon in Leo to Pluto in Sagittarius! Great for feeling rested and enthusiastic about the day, like getting up on the right side of the bed!

Then, at 9:30 affectionate Venus enters passionate Aries, and most will feel the need to connect with others, in a 'new' way, as Aquarius like to do things 'differently'! Friends and friendship figure prominently now for the next few weeks! This is big as Venus has now completed its yearly transit of the zodiac, and we get a new lease of finances, love and life in general!

The Leo Moon goes 'void of course' until 6:10pm MDT, when it arrives in health conscious Virgo, and we want to 'clean up' and organize! In case you've been waiting for the inspiration!

Time to make another 'list' of things to do, as Spring is here, and you know what that means! Get out the broom and sweep away Winters' cobwebs! Sage your home and open the windows, and consider 'feng shui' to improve the energy in your life, the improvements made will astonish you, if you haven't already seen the benefits.

The Moon is still in Leo forming a trine in Mercury in Aries, so we can communicate well, and in a loving way, if we stay out of 'soap opera' mode.

2005-03-26T19:48:00.000-08:00

The Moon is still in Leo forming a trine in Mercury in Aries, so we can communicate well, and in a loving way, if we stay out of 'soap opera' mode.

Later, the Moon sextiles Jupiter in Libra, a beautiful thing to experience, as opportunities for real happiness appear now.

In the evening we have the Moon opposing Neptune in Aquarius, so if you're out of sorts by this time, no worries, just relax into a movie or some other government-sanctioned form of escapism.
Alcohol comes to mind, as it is ruled by Neptune, my personal Number One enemy, (to each his own) as thousands of lives are lost and sacrificed to the most sacred drug in the land of the.....free?

Notice the glorification process at work on the 'boob tube'. Someone must be getting rich off of all of the disasterous consequences....

Or just watch the news if you want a real dose of Neptunian behavior, as our so-called leaders and the so-called 'opposition party' use spoons to bail the water out of this sinking ship formerly known as America. It is up to us folks, we have no representives for our views, just pablum, and spin. Take responsibility for yourself, the nanny state just won't do it!

Saturn becomes stationary direct in Cancer Monday night, so get ready for some real progress to be made in our lives, as the 'review' is over, and it is time to apply what we have learned since November! It might take until May 1st to feel like we've caught up though, so be patient!

The Sun entered Aries today, the Spring Equinox, and Venus enters Aquarius, a winter sign, so its' not over yet! And the Moon enters Leo this morning,

2005-03-26T19:47:00.000-08:00

The Sun entered Aries today, the Spring Equinox, and Venus enters Aquarius, a winter sign, so its' not over yet! And the Moon enters Leo this morning, so it trines the Sun and we have a Sunday like Sunday! Those are rare!

Last nights' Mercury Retro is offset by Saturn turning direct tomorrow night, so rejoice. With Mercury, just do everything twice, as I have now done, (burn your PC and get a Mac, these things are useless aren't they Bill?(Gates)!
My next purchase!

Anyway, Mars in Aquarius does say 'get a new computer!'

Venus enters Aries on the 22nd, so 'new' is the operating keyword now, and anything 'old' will have no appeal.

Today is the last day of Mars in Cap, and its still at 29 degrees, so write today off if you can, tomorrow will really feel like the first day of Spring, as Cap energy is a little 'down', if you know what I mean. As in 'getting down to business'!

Jupiter trined Neptune in the middle of the night, a great aspect for rest and dreams, and brings our optimism up to date!

2005-03-16T00:35:00.000-08:00

Jupiter trined Neptune in the middle of the night, a great aspect for rest and dreams, and brings our optimism up to date!

A square of the Taurus Moon to Neptune in Aquarius can frustrate, but is short in duration.

The Moon sextiles the trine of Venus and Saturn, from Pisces to Cancer, as well as the Sun, so this is a great day for emotional rewards! Take advantage!

This evening the Pisces Sun squares Pluto in Sagittarius, and our energy is drained from all of the days activities, so close up shop and take care of any problems that have been neglected now.

March 19th begins our first Mercury Retrograde this year, and of course we celebrate this Merc Retro transitioning from Water (Pisces-Neptune) to Fire

2005-03-16T00:33:00.000-08:00

March 19th begins our first Mercury Retrograde this year, and of course we celebrate this Merc Retro transitioning from Water (Pisces-Neptune) to Fire (Aries-Mars); guaranteeing a growth spurt for all new beginnings launched during the first quarter of 2005. Unexpected advancements, opportunities, and favor, especially in the area of active pursuits.

Blessings, be safe and Enjoy!

2005-03-16T00:27:00.000-08:00

Seven Starry Aspects on Saturns-Day, so plan on getting those projects going, with the moon in Aries til Midnight MDT, the afternoons daydreamy 'Void of Course moon' will give you a break in the action.

Moon Sextiles Neptune just after Midnight Friday, so escapism, and/or romance could manifest!
Then it opposes Jupiter and we might've had too much do 'dream' last night! Or drink!

Next is the Moons' square to Saturn, a difficult spell emotionally, if we meet with resistance to what we want to express. Breathe....

The Fire sign Moon squares Feisty Mars in the early afternoon, and adds to the mix, so avoid people in general, if you're okay, they won't be.

Finally, the Moon harmonizes with Pluto the Power Strip/Surge Protector!
We get recharged just in time (early afternoon) for the moon to go Void of Course, until it enters its favorite place, affectionate Taurus When the clock strikes 12 Midnight, MDT!

Busy New Moon Day! Attack of the Lunar Aspects!

2005-03-10T17:34:00.000-08:00

Busy New Moon Day! Attack of the Lunar Aspects!

Thursday starts off with the New Moon in Romantic Pisces early in the morning, 3am MDT, so the best time to make your wish list is around Sunrise if you can. By 10am MDT is best.

With 4 Planets in Pisces, including a conjuction with Venus applying, this can bring LOVE and/or whatever you value the most at this time, whether it's a New source of employment or income producing activity. Something that would heal old work wounds.

With Uranus trailing along in Pisces, the word 'reinvention' works itself into our vocabulary, and we can expect the unusual and innovative to be themes for weeks.

Then, the Moon trines Saturn, work issues are favored for now and the near future.

Moon sextile Mars brings opportunities to start new work projects at home or with family.

And then the Moon squares Pluto and our energy needs a cup of java, or a 10 minute nap!

Of course, the moon goes Void of course, and things calm down a bit, a good thing today!

Then, the Sun trines Saturn (during the void of course), so we can still get something accomplished, and some recognition perhaps!

Lastly, Moon enters Aries late and we get a boost of energy from nowhere, but waking up Friday will feel much easier than today!

An important day for communications, getting everything lined up, so to speak!

2005-03-10T17:32:00.000-08:00

An important day for communications, getting everything lined up, so to speak!

First, we have a conjunction of Venus and Uranus in Pisces,
So love and friendship meet, surprises in your love life are rife, and the unexpected is to be expected, but in a good way!

Another conjunction follows, the Moon and Pluto in Sagittarius,
and our batteries get a recharge, and were good for another month, this is like filling up at the Gas Station. Now to decide where to go?

Next, the Moon squares Mercury in Pisces, a frustrating time for communications, to say the least!

Then the moon enters Capricorn and only the 'best of' attracts us now!

Last, Mercury enters Aries, leaving the 29th degree today, so that impending disaster feeling goes away this evening! In Aries, Mercury brings fearlessness, creativity and impulsive thoughts to our minds, and we get permission to start new projects! Have at it!

Early Wednesday morning, the Scorpio Moon trines gossipy Mercury in emotional Pisces, and we have a chance to 'feel' good about the latest news!

2005-03-02T19:22:00.001-08:00

Early Wednesday morning, the Scorpio Moon trines gossipy Mercury in emotional Pisces, and we have a chance to 'feel' good about the latest news!

Then, the Moon goes Void-of-course til sometime around Noon MDT, and we can lower our expectations, until the Moon enters Happy Sag, and we leave the Scorpio intensity behind. And our optimism returns!
The Moon squares Venus late tonight, difficulty with loved ones is likely, and even later, the
Moon squares Uranus, so sleeping will be difficult, unless it's with your eyes open. Try not to be too rebellious under this influence, it's great for DWIs!

The Scorpio Moon and the Sun in Pisces form a sweet trine in the middle of the night. This is always a good vibe to be aware of, as there is something

2005-03-02T19:22:00.000-08:00

The Scorpio Moon and the Sun in Pisces form a sweet trine in the middle of the night. This is always a good vibe to be aware of, as there is something intangable, and delicious about this once every ten-day event. And a Water Sign Trine is very psychic and felt by all. Healing energy abounds.

Then, the Moon then squares Neptune in Aquarius, and we don't have a clue, momentarially, so give yourself a break if you seem foggy. This will pass when the Moon forms a frustrating square with Mars in Capricorn and we are forced to focus on something distacting or difficult.

In the afternoon, a square of Mercury in sensitive Pisces and Pluto in outspoken Sagittarius makes for more minor challenges, yet you can get alot done if you allow for changes in your plans.

The Moon trines Saturn in Cancer in the evening, and alls' well that ends well, on a Capricornian note, as Saturn and Squares are the days theme. A well-deserved rest will be in order, if not fulfilling some more pressing obligation.
