July 22nd: Venus Rx in Leo

Posted on 07/11/23 @ 12:

Venus Rx will begin on July 22nd @ 28° (Cancer degree), emphasizing the contemplative period we are beginning. You may feel a little defensive right now, and trying to protect yourself. Do not hide from conflict, face it head on and fight. During this transit it is essential for you to practice discernment between what is happening in the material world and your feelings. Although relationships will change, it’s important to know which ones are worth keeping, and which ones have run their course. What lessons have you learned? Think about who you were and what you were doing during the last Venus Rx in Capricorn during December 19, 2021- January 29, 2022.

If you are a Leo rising, this Venus Rx is happening in your 1H (I am), dealing with your identity, the image you project, and outlook. Is the way you project yourself aligned with your values? You as a person are about to change.

Wherever Leo sits in your chart will be highlighted during this Venus Rx. Look below to see which house Leo sits in your chart based on your rising sign and what themes may come up during this transit.

Leo in your chart

Aries Rising: 5th House; I serve (personal creativity) 

-For Aries rising, I see this Venus Rx shaking up how you express yourself. With Venus being in Leo, I think many of you will be taking the initiatives that put you center stage in your life. This will be a time where you reflect over your values in and how you express yourself. Romance may be in the air for meaning of you as well. Since 5H deals with fertility, children= Leo=vitality, if you do not want to get pregnant make sure you are taking all precautions.

Taurus Rising: 4th House; I nurture

-Changes to your home life are arriving. Home in the literal sense like where you live and also home as in your roots. You maybe moving or re-decorating your home. You may reconnect with family (your foundation), and reflect over how you want to take action in how you nurture yourself specifically.

Gemini Rising: 3rd House; I think

-Your mind and thinking process will be changing during this transit. The Rx will cause you to reflect over how you communicate with others and whether or not you find it useful and productive. Test (conflict) may arise calling on you to address confrontation in your social settings and activities. Remember, you don’t have to engage. If you do engage, think before you speak. Mercury will have entered Leo on July 11th, increasing heated conversations. How can you communicate your values to people? What boundaries will you enforce?

Cancer Rising: 2nd House; I have

-Material possessions (cash/commodities/work) will be a focal for you this transit. Where do your values align and are you living that value? What new steps do you need to make? This is the time to be patient, reflect, and be open to reassessing what you are seeking to have. You may change jobs or have change in your income. Changes to your daily habits are expected to take place as well. Adjustments to your daily habit that center you and your priorities.

Virgo Rising: 12 House; I dream

- Ex’s may appear in your dreams during this transit or be on your mind (subconscious). Do not think that an ex appearing in your dream means you miss them. You may be processing how things ended. They may also be thinking about you. You could be officially ending cycles and relationships. Childhood triggers of not having control may arise. Pay attention to your dreams during this transit because you will learn more about yourself. Write down your dreams to help you look at possible patterns or themes occurring.

Libra Rising: 11th House; I aspire

- Are you starting a new venture? Or trying to stabilize a current project? Who are the people you have in your corner supporting you? Tap in to the people who you trust, and support you during this transit. You may be thinking about the future during this transit. Also pay attention to any possible technology issues that may arise. 

Scorpio Rising: 10th House; I achieve

- You are thinking about your future and legacy you want to have. What steps do you need to take? Thoughts about your reputation are likely to come to the forefront. New career or job offers. If it’s not an immediate, YES, then its a no, and that is okay. 

Sagittarius Rising: 9th House; I explore

-You may be exploring feelings related to your inner child. Many of you may meet a new person while traveling abroad, or in higher education. Pay attention to any flags, now is not the time to ignore them. This Venus Rx will transform your philosophy. Leave you with different values and wisdom. Some of you may be exploring religion or reflecting the way religion has impacted you. 

Capricorn Rising: 8th House; I circulate

-As a Saturn ruled placement, you often face many restrictions. You may feel like you are held to a higher standard than others. During this transits, people who have wronged you may come back. You could inherit energy from other people so make sure you step up your spiritual protection. Debts are being paid.

Aquarius Rising: 7th House; I partner

-Big changes to your relationships. If you are in a relationship, check in with your partner. Are your values aligned? The word relationship is not limited to romantic ones either. How are you caring for yourself during this time. This Venus Rx in Leo wants you to think about how your relationships make you feel and benefit you. Do you feel supported by your partner or other interpersonal relationships. Are your relationships helping you grow as a person? 

Pisces Rising: 6th House; I serve (daily life/others)

-Check in with your health. Your vitality is being highlighted during this transit. What care are you in need of? Changes to appearance based on your overall health could take place. You are more analytical about subjects of the heart, and work ethic (habits). What habits do you need to keep or let go? On the body, Leo represents the heart so make sure you monitor your heart health during this time.

The astrological philosophical perspective I hold is one that combines several different philosophies at its foundations. It is a polytheistic, cosmobiological, panenthiestic, panpsychic, phenomenological approach. It blends understanding through the application of mathematical-spiritual techniques & interpretations to help querents and astrologers alike come to a deeper reverence, purpose, clarity, and awakenings while engaging with and interpreting the chart.

The polytheistic cosmobiological portion helps us render truth from the power-obsessed and Imperial-minded monotheistic conception of spiritually, and the cosmos itself. This philosophical portion combats the notion that Divinity is a singular entity creating and destroying as it sees fit based on some ancient religion and it's particular precepts, or some other temporal religious/mystical/cultural instantiation of orientation of the divine in it's regional-historical scope.

The polytheistic-cosmobiologal portion discussed how in the multiplicity of Divinity's manifestations truth is everything but singular. Truth, if I must make an axiom, is multiplicity itself. This thus means there are now an expansive, yet finite relevant logics that can offer us a spiritual clarity as we remove the impetus to find a hill to war and die in with our individual conception of the Divine Mystery. It speaks it's truths in ways that create, deeper, and resolve dualities, dichotomies, and tensions through a logic that is alive, conscious, and in inextricable relationship to Time. The celestial bodies of our solar system become a relevant discussion for our understand of the methodology of his astrology is capable of functioning as a diviner's tool, but also as a spiritual/cosmically intelligent arithmetic that provides a language and logic for the material and metaphysical events that happen in our human lives on our own celestial planetary home.

In Western Astrology, we liken the planets unto mythic deities, with desires, tendencies, domains, and intentions and then track what those may manifest as when interpret placements, aspects and other patterns in the slew of different charts we have for our different analyses. If in our practices, both now as a divination tradition passed down historically with it's particular philosophical schools, and as a functional language when applying said philosophical schools notions for interpretations, it's smooth and consistently accurate when we give (divine) consciousness to multiple celestial bodies, we reinforce the logical proof of the next portions of my philosophical foundation, Panpsychism and Panenthiesm.

This becomes logically overlapping and expansive with ideas above. If it makes sense, spiritually through meditative practice or enhanced perception, if it makes sense linguistically and practically through interpretations that lend clarity and healing, and it makes sense logically and atithmetically through the mathematical techniques applied that gave us the interpretative clarity, we run into territory of Panenthiesm's logical forms. Panenthiesm asserts that Divinity is in all things, and all things are within Divinity. There's is nothing that exists that doesn't contain or isn't made up of the same celestial-conscious materials of the very deified cosmos themselves. This also becomes an important backdrop by which can show that no matter the occurrence, it's form, it's energetic presences, it exists and belongs within the cosmos. All things have a significance and purpose under this understanding, taking us to our explanation of Panpsychism. The Deified Consciousness of the cosmos is itself the ground floor of all of materiality, Panpsychism's philosophy asserts. That all things are conscious in varying degrees, but still built of the very same Divine Intelligence that allows our astrological (or any divination tradition/tool/technique) to be capable of provide any worthwhile, meaningful application and answer.

The mathematical, the biophysical, the cosmic/astronomical, the spiritual, the psychic/emotional all become interconnected and layered over each other multidimensionally in this perspective. It becomes the logical tracks that Divinity can communicate to itself, i.e. whether through humans practicing divination or plants growing in predetermined (and also dynamic) shapes and forms.

Next becomes a very important philosophical portion for those practicing and receiving astrological divination. The phenomenological approach of the utmost importance when it comes to both a diviner and a querent. The phenomenological approach asserts that this is matter of cross-paradigmatic navigation every time we communicate anything, let alone what are supposed to be Divined Communiques from Cosmic Deific Forces themselves. The Phenomenological portion reminds us that in the multiplicity of truth, power is humility, grace, an open heart and mind, because in the lack of understanding language, our bodies are attuned to respond to feelings/energetic resonances. What may not make sense in my worldview, individually or culturally, is still capable of being received, heard, and felt (again, even if nonsensically), meaning that spiritual practice and one's personal worldview is inevitably and inextricably linked to the ability to divine, interpret, or receive the fullness of any understanding or awareness. We speak through semiotic veils at all moments, and the more complex of a topic or logic we get to the more paradigmaric curtains must be acknowledged, and to the best of our ability, pulled back. This keeps us from an arrogant assumption of a singular divine truth needing to break through another's world for value and integration, no psycho-colonialism needed, just an open hand and clarified awareness of the moment and the information for the sake of healing, evolution, and further awakenings.

[venusian5]

a list of [just a few] different types of astrology

Astrocartography -- The astrology of place. It examines how people respond to the various energies available to them across the globe. Astrologers that practice this type of astrology help others find spots where they can better engage with specific themes in their lives by examining a special type of astrological map.

Chinese Astrology -- A group of traditions that arose independent of those in the west with their own mythos, techniques, and philosophy that bloomed throughout the long history of Chinese cultures.

Cosmobiology -- A school of astrology credited with popularization by German astrologer Reinhold Ebertin that is related to the Hamburg School of Astrology. There is a primary emphasis on mid-points and 8th Harmonic aspects, and the significant expansion of medical astrological principals.

Egyptian Astrology -- A retrospective school of astrology that uses the rich Egyptian mythos to examine Zodiacal relationships. This should not be confused with the type of astrology practiced in ancient Egypt from roughly 2000BC-100BC that served as a foundational precursor to the Hellenistic tradition, since the concept of the Zodiac was developed elsewhere.

Electional Astrology -- Also known as Inceptional Astrology, this branch of the tradition is focused on finding the best time to start new projects so that they meet with the greatest success and abundance. 

Esoteric Astrology -- The types of astrology that examine spiritual principals and seek to build corpus knowledge of esoteric ideologies by examining the mundane motion of the planets and stars as well as their hidden relationships.

Evolutionary Astrology -- Astrology that focuses on the supposed evolutionary path of the soul. It is used to foster individual growth and spiritual expansion in accordance with many new age principals. 

Financial Astrology -- Astrology that examines financial markets and their timing according to transits in order to forecast market changes. This branch of astrology also examines natal potential for money making, as well as uses astrology as a tool for discourse about global economic trends.

Hellenistic Astrology -- The type of astrology practiced in the Mediterranean from roughly 100BC to 600BC that reached its height during the Roman Empire. It is the first western system to incorporate the 4 fold system of astrology that became the foundation of all later practices.

Horary Astrology -- Divinatory astrology that examines the moment in which a question is understood by an astrologer in order to find an answer for the querent.

Jyotish -- Commonly conflated with Vedic Astrology, Jyotish is the main form of astrology practiced in the Indian subcontinent in the modern era. It represents a hybrid of indigenous Indian astrology with Hellenistic techniques. This type of astrology is sidereal, or constellation based.

Magi Astrology -- A secretive form of astrology that examines relationships and their timing according to a different set of astrological standards.

Mayan Astrology -- The tradition of astrology practiced in the Mayan culture that arose independently of western influence and ideology.

Medical Astrology -- Astrology that examines the relationship of the human body with the alignment of the cosmos. Used to forecast and diagnose predispositions to certain health issues, as well as provide recommendations for greater over all health and wellness according to the natal potential.

Modern Astrology -- The various forms of astrology that have been practiced since its revival in the late 1800's. There has been a marked increase in the importance placed on the Sun sign, and a focus on the psychological potentials indicated by the natal chart.

Mundane Astrology -- The astrology of large groups of people and their interactions. Transits are examined in order to explain and forecast global trends and events.

Natal Astrology -- Astrology centered on the natal chart of individuals. In the modern era this is the most widely used form of astrology.

Psychological Astrology -- The examination of the natal chart as a set of psychological predispositions. Based on this foundational premise the astrologer can help guide and counsel the native with traditional psychological techniques.

Rectification -- An extraordinarily advanced astrological technique that examines the events of a native's life and works backward in order to produce a time of birth for those that do not possess it. A time consuming and expensive process that is a necessary precursor for all advanced forms of astrological work.

Relocational Astrology -- The supposition that natal capabilities are amenable to the influences of locality. Examines the shift of potential that a native faces when living in different areas.

Synastry -- The astrology of relationships. Two charts are examined concurrently in order to reveal themes and potentials that may be present as the relationship progresses.

Traditional Astrology -- The various forms and traditions of astrology that were practiced during the almost 3000 years of its history prior to astrology's revival in the late 1800's. There is a marked focus on mundane astrology and examining the lives of natives from a deterministic standpoint.

Transit Astrology -- The examination of the current or future positions of the planets in relation to a natal chart order to see the themes that are currently active in a native's life, as well as forecast future trends and events.

Uranian Astrology -- Another branch that is related to the Hamburg School of Astrology that focuses on midpoints and uses theoretical planets as part of it's arsenal of techniques. It is sometimes said to be the true successor of the Hamburg legacy.

Vedic Astrology -- The indigenous forms of astrology of the Indian subcontinent that arose independent of those of the west. There is a distinct lunar focus (as there are with many of the oldest forms of astrology). This system was eventually merged with ancient Hellenistic techniques in order to form what is now known as Jyotish.

Vocational Astrology -- A specialized form of astrology that examines the inherent potential within a natal chart in order to recommend potential career paths for a native and help them navigate their professional life.

Weather Forecasting Astrology -- The type of astrology that is most popularly used in almanacs. More advanced techniques and philosophies in use by astrologers range from every day forecasting to major climate prediction.

Lunar Partial Eclipse in Taurus 

On Saturday, October 28th @ 1:24 AM there will be a Lunar Eclipse in Taurus. This will be the last eclipse in the Taurus-Scorpio axis till 2031!! We are finishing up a cycle that began in November 2021. Think about where you were, what you were doing, and how did you feel during that first set of eclipses? 

This eclipse will be happening @ 5° of Taurus. Check your chart for where Taurus sits to give you insight to the area this eclipse will be impacting you. Unlike the Annular Solar Eclipse we had on Oct 14, this Lunar Partial will be a Full Moon, so the same Full Moon energies are on a larger magnitude. Endings. What are you letting go? What lessons have you learned in the past two years that you can incorporate to help you grow? 

With a Lunar eclipse this means the Sun is opposite the Moon. Sun in Scorpio is opp Moon in Taurus @ 5°. How are you balancing what you say/need on the surface level with what your subconscious think about or may obsess with? For example, are you searching for material possessions (Taurus) because you obsess over (Scorpio) lacking or not having security/stability? This also happening at 5° (Leo degree), which may bring up feelings and conversations about your father/male or an authority figure in your life. Check in with you heart, literally. Think heart health. Do you need to go to the doctor? Are you worried about your health?

This eclipse is happening in the 3H in this forecast, so what communication/conversation (3H=gemini) will you be having? The Sun (self) will be in the 9H, so your mindset and outlook (philosophy) may change six months from now. Depending on where this eclipse sits, you may be thinking about going back to school (higher education). Some of you maybe moving or doing some long distance travel (9H=sagittarius). Others may be beginning their spiritual journey (9H=Jupiter). Again, this will also depend on where this eclipse sits in your chart. The chart for this transit is a snapshot.

People in the spotlight, celebrities, monarchies, and politicians may fall from grace. Full Moons are still about illuminating, and although the moon is moving into Earth’s shadow, it is highlighting what is behind the surface. Highlighting, what is hiding literally in the shadows. Especially with this eclipse happening in 5°, more news may come out heads of countries. Someone may die and it may bring suppressed information to light.

On this day, we also have Neptune in Pisces @ 25° semi-square to Jupiter in Taurus @ 11°. How can you turn your dreams into reality? What actions do you need to set into motion? Semi-squares are about internal frustration or conflict. What is stirring inside you that you need to change? The Neptune in Pisces @ 25° is signaling a new beginning, new step being taken (25°=Aries=Cardinal degree). The expansive Jupiter in Taurus at 11° is letting us know you may be taking an unorthodox way of achieving your dreams. Neptune and Jupiter co-rule Pisces, which is in the 2H for this transits chart. Cash flow (income) may change following this transits. Maybe you are purging material possessions, and letting go of old habits, to reprioritize what you truly desire. This might be a highly emotional time.

Mercury @ 10° and Mars @ 11° will form a conjunction in Scorpio. This eclipse will be an ideal time to journal and think about whatever is on your mind. Are you thinking about work? Relationships? Family? Your career? Health? You are more attuned to your thoughts, try not to engage in obsessive thinking  during this time though. With Mars sitting in the sign that it rules, Scorpio (traditional astrology) you may feel a little more energized, and fiery. Be mindful of your words as you and others may be more argumentative during this transit. However, this is a great time if you are researching a topic, this conjunction in Scorpio may help you have more depth in the topic. Channel any buildup energy into action. 

This conjunction will make an opposite to Jupiter in Taurus @ 11°. Mars in Scorpio making an exact opposition. What do you ultimately want? Think of Taurus as the surface level appearance/ideas whereas Scorpio is the feelings below the surface. Ex. Valuing (Taurus) relationship security because fear (underneath feeling=Scorpio) of abandonment. When there is an opposition in a transit, we will be dealing with the duality of the two energies (Taurus & Scorpio). How can we cooperate? Or do we need break away? Maybe your relationship isn’t giving you the security you need. You can either take action to get their security or walk away. I see anything with Mars as dealing with action. If you are wanting more, you may be inclined to take risk to achieve it. However, be deliberate, don’t lose sight of the bigger picture. Understand when to fight or flight. Pick your battles during this transit. Since we are dealing with Jupiter, new opportunities may be offered to you. Do not overextend yourself. Again, balance the energies. 

Neptune in Pisces @ 25° will form a sesquiquadrate with Mercury in Scorpio @ 10° you may be confused because of external friction happening around you. A shift in your perception/thinking (Mercury) may be challenged and changed. You may be put in a position to assert yourself, make your presence known. Do it. This is an opportunity for personal growth.

Transit for Week of September 17th, 2023

Posted on 9/17/23 @ 12:49 AM PST

The astrology for the week of September 17th is interesting to say the least. Mars has been in Libra since August 27th and since September 11th, it has been making a sextile with Venus in Leo. The theme for the next month is Justice for Women. There will be a grande trine working in your favor this week helping you accomplish task dealing with your long term goals and career. There is also a T-square that I might make another post about.

Sunday, Sept 17th

Mars is the planet of action, initiation, and productivity. Mars in Libra will bring action that deals with justice as Libra is represented by the scales. Sextiles are about the energies of the signs working together as if they are in sync. Venus in Leo is basically women in the spotlight because Venus = women and Leo = sun/attention. In short, the energies of Libra (justice) are syncing (sextile) with women (Venus) getting the spotlight (Leo). But the spotlight is more so vindication after being wronged and the women in the spotlight maybe literal celebrities or adjacent. This transit will last till October 11th. I think tomorrow, Sunday, Sept 17th maybe when major news comes out with Venus in Leo at 15° which is a Gemini degree = communication possible international communication.

This is further emphasized by the direct midpoint Neptune=Mercury/Mars; the stage of getting in involved in controversies or lawsuits and the pursuit of fanatical plans.

Monday, Sept 18th

By Monday, think about journaling your dreams as the Moon moves into Scorpio creating an opposition with Jupiter in Taurus. The Moon will be in the 12H of subconscious, and since Scorpio already represent the underworld it is further emphasized. Moon in Scorpio at 7° will have us thinking about our relationships (romantic, platonic, business), and how people perceive us. Jupiter is in Taurus at 15° will have us communicating (15° = gemini degree) about our values and what we needed to feel secure especially in our daily lives and health with it being in the 6H (virgo house).

A direct midpoint Neptune=Moon/Jupiter; female civil servant or officials dealing with enterprises or legal and maybe religious conflicts may arise. Be mindful in social settings. 

If you’re not trying to get pregnant make sure you are taking precautions. Neptune=Moon/Venus; the female capable of conception. You may be a little moody on Monday with the direct midpoint as well so try not to make rash decisions. Think first.

Tuesday, Sept 19th

You may have a breakthrough at work or in your career as Tuesday rolls around. The Sun in Virgo at 26° in the 10H forms a trine with Uranus in Taurus at 22°. The Uranus Rx will slide back into 6H of work and routine on Tuesday. Uranus is the planet of sudden change and rebellion at 22° in Taurus signaling responsibilities and long term goals (22° =Capricorn degree). Although Uranus is in retrograde it will be supported by the Sun in Virgo helping you apply the action and handle your responsibilities. Are you worried about financial security? Looking for a new job? Wanting to take control of your reputation? I see this trine syncing the energies of Virgo and Taurus bringing application to the values and your needs. 

Wednesday, Sept 20th

Internal conflicts will need to be faced on Wednesday with Mars in Libra in 11H at 15° semi-square Moon in Sagittarius at 2°. The Moon in the 1H will have you reflecting about your outlook on the world, especially with who you associate and your networks, you might think you need to reinvent yourself. Be mindful of the internal conflicts you feel this day because they are likely part of a larger habits (Mars sesqui-square with Saturn) being compelled to break. Do the people you associate with align with you? Do you align with the people you associate with? Has your outlook on life or even appearance change because of your associations? Although it is an internal conflict, themes of diplomacy, justice, and balance may come up during this reflective transit. Finding a way to communicate what is happening will be something to prioritize. If you are not comfortable with speaking, you can journal or create some art (2°=Taurus degree ruled by Venus=art) 

Thursday, Sept 21st

Any journaling you did on Wednesday will come in handy as the Moon and Mars now make a sextile with one another having their energies work in sync with one another. However, restrictions in communication are still present but  you are now forced to directly deal with the tension as the Moon now forms a square with Mercury in in Virgo at 10° in 9H. The conversation may be about travel like long distance (9H rules by Sag), higher education, and law/religion. Because Mercury is in the 10° degree (Capricorn degree), you have responsibilities to face that is in conflict with your desire for freedom (Moon in Sag). How are you finding balance with what you desire, your responsibilities, and diplomacy in your associations.

Friday, Sept 22nd

External conflict caused by habits that need to break will come to the forefront to you today. Moon in Sag at 29° forms a sesqui-square with Jupiter in Taurus at 15°. The Moon now sits in the 2H of daily routine, work ethic, and income. While Jupiter sits in the 6H of work habits, health, and service given. A few questions to think about: How does your work ethic impact your work habits? Are they aligned for your success? Is your daily routine a healthy habit you should be continuing? Is your income sustaining you? Do you need a certain service provided to help you break any habit that are no longer serving you?

Natal Observation: Mac Miller

Time writing 2:01 AM PST

Post time: 2:35 PM PST

Malcolm James McCormick “Mac Miller”

Born Jan 19, 1992

@ 8:46 AM EST

Pittsburgh, PA

Capricorn Sun @ 28°

Cancer Moon @ 24°

Aquarius Asc @ 18°

Mac has his moon in Cancer @ 24° in his 6H of health and service. Cancer (water sign) is ruled by the moon, and being in 24th° (Pisces-water sign), it’s clear that his emotions and feelings a will be of service to others and he will be well-liked (6H cusp @ 19 degrees=Libra degree). Millions of fans are captivated by the emotion in his lyrics. Being that both is moon and degree are in water signs, it’s interesting that much of his songs have water elements in both the music sounds and his lyrics invoke themes of fluidity.

One aspect to his moon is a trine with Pluto in Scorpio @ 22° signifying that serious (Capricorn rules 22°) outlook on life and his feelings. His Pluto sits in his 9H and in his songs he often discusses traveling both literally and metaphorically. Miller’s last album before he died was Swimming (water), and the album cover he appears to be sitting at the exit door of an airplane (9H rules long distance travel) in the sky. Much of his lyrics are diving into philosophical (Sagittarius rules 9H) questions and the listener can tell it’s coming from a longing desire ex the song Aquarium:

I'm just trying to make it all make sense

As you hypothesize on how to monetize, take advantage of

All the time we all behind, get lost in this Aquarium

America, the standard of vanity when the camera's up

We become celebrities, distract from the hysteria

Confessions that I have and curiosity about life and death

Most of us will never understand it, we just like the quest

Read about the meaning of dreaming and all its messages

Sedatives that take me to God, witness his fetishes

We all in search for substance, that gives you pain and numbness

The rapper is also known for singing about topics that some may find taboo (Pluto in Scorpio), like death, suicide, addiction, sex, loss, the meaning of life and so much more. The trine to Moon in Cancer show his vulnerability to discussing these topics.

In his 12H sits his Saturn in Aquarius @ 8° where the native is faced with challenges dealing self-control and responsibilities. Although in modern astrology, Aquarius is ruled by Uranus, the rule breaking rebel. In traditional astrology, it’s ruled by Saturn, which is where the discipline and their sense of duty to help the collective comes from. Mac Miller takes life seriously, and thinks deeply about the cycles of life, especially endings.

Oftentimes tormented by his thoughts and feelings about the society around him. He feels as if he has to connect people, and help people from his inner/deep thoughts (Saturn in Aquarius 12H). Almost like he has the world on his shoulders causing external challenges (Saturn sesqui Kronos), and a responsibility to the people. The inner challenge comes from the semi-square with Venus in Sagittarius @ 22°. While his Venus likes and enjoys freedom, it can sometimes be irresponsible and pleasure seeking, but also lust for power and status (Venus in his 10H), which creates an internal conflict (semi-square to Saturn) for him. That internal conflict is the responsibility to the collective vs individual comfort and pleasure. In lyrics, Miller has discussed ways his celebrity status (10H rules careers/reputation) has changed him. In the song titled Ignorant, Miller sings about the materials (Venus) he’s been able to acquire with his money he amassed juxtaposed with his song titled Self-Care, where he sings about crashing an expensive car he bought and that he needs to be saved from himself. Additionally, in the song All That ft Bun B, Mac and Bun B rap about how everything he does (being a rapper) is deeper than being a celebrity, with status, fame, money or girls.

July 10th: Mars Enters Virgo

Posted on Jul 8 12:05 AM

On July 10th 2023 @ 7:40 AM EST, Mars will enter Virgo. A busy summer is ahead for all of us, but especially people with personal placements in Virgo (top 3 or 6). Virgo is the sign of being analytical and calculated. Mars isn’t a huge fan of being in Virgo. The planet of action, it feels more comfortable in fire or air sign (quick action). This transit will take place in the 1H, we are projecting methodical behavior. You are planning and making a list whether physical or in your head of things you want to accomplish. Although Virgo is a mutable sign, it very much enjoys planning, and having a set schedule, more importantly being prepared and anticipating anything. Virgo is an earth sign, and craves being grounded because they feel in control. Being analytical allows for Virgo to be grounded, while still open to adapting to their [preset] ideas. However, this adaptive analytical skills can sometimes become very critical of the self and others. 

During this transits you may be inclined to start new goals or projects, and lay the ground work for what you need to check off. Try not to be too critical of yourself and others during this time and be open to change. This transit will be very beneficial for us during the Venus Rx. While the rx is asking us to reflect, Mars (action), will help us be more analytical in how we behave or make choices. The change will be seen in how we approach those challenges.

This Mars will be opposing Saturn in Pisces at 6° in the 8H of death/birth, inheritance (people’s resources in your hands), mystery, sex. Your outside resources (things you inherit from other people) may minimize (6°=virgo degree=minimize). Pisces, another mutable, but water, likes to ride the wave, and is the twin to Virgo. Whereas Virgo must plan to anticipate, Pisces goes with the flow. With Saturn in Pisces, the flow is being less restricted, creating some instability. Saturn being the planet of responsibilities, authority, and limitations. So, Saturn is not a fan to be in the sign of go with the flow Pisces because it’s loose control when it comes to handling responsibilities, where they may drip (water) through. 

So while your action may be strategic, the restrictions you face may be like a wave flowing in different directions. It is this reason why I say you should be open to not checking off every sing thing off your list. The other people’s resources you may receive could come and go, which may impact your ability to check everything off. Additionally, you are being in a position where you do not have complete control. How will you behave?

I do see a short transit giving ease to our communication though. This transiting Mars will form a semisextile (30°) to Mercury in Cancer @ 28°. I see planned conversations with your family; specifically women in your life, could be a partner or mother figure. You might also be having communication about changing your home, specifically your bedroom with Mercury in 12H (dreams). I am definitely seeing alterations and change happening to your home or sleep. Pluto in Capricorn is opposed to Mercury in Cancer. The cusp of the 6H is 8° in Capricorn meaning you may come into help (service, take from others) from someone above you physically like the live above you, or they have some authority or power over you (Capricorn rules height). 

Do not let your desire to control the situation get in the way of the changes taking place. Uranus in Taurus @ 22° in 10H is squared to Mars in Virgo. Two earth signs value stability, and with Uranus @ 22° you are trying to take control of your career, long-term goals,  and reputation. Learn how to step back, and realize you cannot control everything.

Weekly Forecasts: 10/23/23

BIG week ahead for the week of October 23rd! We have a Lunar Eclipse in Taurus on Saturday, Oct 28th at 1:24 PM PST. This will be the final eclipse in the Taurus-Scorpio axis, closing a period that started in November 2021. Think about where you were, what you were doing, and how did you feel during that first set of eclipses?

Monday 10/23

Monday starts off with some direct tension in our relationships and emotions. Venus is Virgo @ 13° is making an sesquisquare to Pluto in Capricorn @ 27° may bring up some external conflicts. You will have to check where Virgo and Capricorn sit in your chart for tips on where the friction may come from. For example, if you have Virgo in your 6H (daily habits/routine/work) that means Capricorn is in your 10H (career & reputation). The external friction may come from your work and career. Are you finding it full-filling? Are you wanting to leave? Sesquisquares bring up annoyances that can often be easily pushed aside, but if you confront them, growth can happen. Pluto in 27° of Capricorn makes me think that a conversation will be had (27°=gemini degree). Maybe you’ll have a conversation with your siblings or even do some small distance traveling. Venus, a personal placement deals with our partnerships (romantic, personal, business). Be mindful of the conversations you start today.

The Moon in Aquarius @ 21° is squaring Uranus Rx in Taurus @ 21° may bring some pressure to work on an issue. As we get closer to the eclipse we are going to be put in positions to help bring about any necessary change the areas (houses) that will be impacted. You’re looking for some stability in change. What can you do to ground yourself? What action can you take to bring stability? This is a tight square where both planets ate @21° a Sagittarius. Are you desiring to be free? Do you feel trapped? If so, by what?

We do have one ‘easy’ transits on this day, which is Sun in Scorpio @ 0° making a trine to Saturn in Pisces @ 0°. Think of this as iff the energies or Scorpio and Pisces being one. The energies are working together. Scorpio is a fixed sign that needs to feel secure (stable), whereas Pisces is a mutable sign keen to being adaptable and going either direction. What responsibilities do you have? They may be easier to adhere to during this transit. What lessons have you recently learn, and can now incorporate in your life? What should you be concentrating on? This transit will be here till Tuesday

Wednesday 10/25

The Moon in Pisces @ 20° makes a sesquisquare to Mercury in Scorpio @ 5°. You may have to conversation with an authority figure dealing with deep topics or having a deep conversation. Some secrets make be uncovered, with Moon in Pisces @ 20° (Scorpio degree). Are you worried about something coming to light? Whatever is bothering you may be an accumulation of behavior.

Use of steel/iron make escalate in the coming weeks as the Sun, Mars, and Mercury move through Scorpio. Eyeing occupied Palestine and the use of weapons used by Israeli settlers. The price of steel may change as western forces demand more military aid. Additionally, as world powers try to switch to greener options, the current use of steel and iron may change.

Another transit in the sky for Wednesday is Moon sextile to Uranus in Taurus @ 21° giving opportunity for growth without the tension. Think of these energies cooperating with one another. You might be more inclined to take slightly rebellious action (Uranus) based on how you are feeling (Moon). Now, moving based on how you feel is not inherently bad or antithesis to logic. Be deliberate with your action as you will have the energy necessary to resolve issues.

Thursday 10/26

As we move into Thursday we will have Mars in Scorpio @ 9° sesqisquare with Neptune in Pisces @ 25°. Your energy may be low. Neptune will sit in the 3H of intellect, siblings, and communication. The 3H is ruled by Gemini, which is ruled by Mercury. As Neptune in Pisces sits in this house new communication or new way of thinking may be establish with it being in 25° (Aries degree=cardinal). Mars @ 9° in the 10H is signaling some are breaking away or shaking up their career and reputation. Think unorthodox and unconventional. The 9° is a Sagittarius degree, the half man half horce. The horse desire to run and be free, whereas half man understands responsibilities and conformity.

An external conflict that you’d rather push to the side may rise. Sesquiquadrate highlight repeated conflicts we have yet too or refuse to address. What tension between different ideas are you having? Taking action (Mars in Scorpio) vs day dreaming (Neptune in Pisces). Face it, but be intentional. This is an opportunity for growth. You might be hyper suspicious of others and vice versa because of this transit, and with Mars being Scorpio. Pisces is a mutable sign meaning it is adaptable (fish swimming). Scorpio is a fixed sign trying to find stable ground (Scorpion). As we lead up to the Lunar Partial Eclipse, what direction do you want to go? This transit will remain in the sky till Friday.

Friday 10/27

Jupiter in Taurus @ 11° opposite to Mars in Scorpio @ 10°. Check in with your family, particular a mother or woman figure in your life. The Mars is more calculated with it being @ 10° (Capricorn degree). I like to think of Capricorn has playing the long game, they know what they want, and like to planTaurus is ruled by Venus, and in this transit, Venus is in the 9H, which is ruled by Jupiter the planet of law & religion. My first thought is ‘justice for women and children.’ Events from your childhood are coming full circle with Jupiter in 4H. Of course with it at 11° these opportunities will come about through unconventional ways, maybe through attention or spotlight since Venus is @ 17°.

Saturday 10/28

See Lunar Partial Eclipse for full analysis. In short, we are ending a two year long cycle that started in November 2021. Wherever Taurus sits in your chart will be impacted. Try to think about where you were at the start of this Taurus-Scorpio axis cycle. Where are you now? What have you learned in the last two years? What lessons will you now incorporate in your life?

Sunday 10/29

On Friday we had Mars opposite Jupiter, and today we have Mercury in Scorpio @ 12° opposite Jupiter in Taurus @ 11°. This is the time to think big picture. New information is going to flow in and help you make a decision. Be open to changing your mind. Oppositions are about finding balance. As you seek financial security because of childhood trauma (4H) in one hand will you obsess over material possession or fame (10H)? Communicate with intention.
