Libra Seeking Balance

New Moon Solar Eclipse in Gemini May 20, 2012

Nothing quite like an eclipse to stir things up and this New Moon Solar Eclipse at 0° 21′ Gemini on 20 May at 4:47 PM PDT is sure to do just that! Given Gemini can carry on both sides of an argument all by themselves and with an already polarized atmosphere, everything from mild spats to knockdown drag out fights may occur.

Whilst there is a possibility the square from dreamy Neptune in Pisces to the New Moon will promote peace and goodwill, I can’t help but think there is a far [...]

Libra Weekly Horoscopes for May 14, 2012

Earth signs (Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn) have one more week to enjoy the comfortable Taurus Sun before it moves into airy Gemini on 20 May. The Sun’s entrance into Gemini this year is marked with a New Moon Solar Eclipse! Since the New Moon squares Neptune in Pisces, figuring exactly what’s going could be challenging.

The week starts out with literal minded Mercury in Taurus pleasantly trine Pluto in Capricorn, followed by an inconjunct between the Taurus Sun and Saturn in Libra. When the Mercury-Pluto aspect is combined with a stationary Venus in Gemini, [...]

Another Venus retrograde is now upon us! Venus will station retrograde at 24° Gemini on May 15, exactly trine retrograde Saturn in Libra for better or worse.

Speaking of “for better or worse” those planning late May-June weddings better brace themselves for plenty of changes in wedding plans! Though it is unlikely weddings will be called off, there will be more changes to all those important details like the flowers, cake, music and the bridesmaid’s dresses. Note to parents of the bride – if you don’t want to go broke, practice saying “no” in [...]

Observations: Uranus-Pluto Square & Cognitive Dissonance

Diane L — Wed, 09 May 2012 17:58:33 +0000

As the first exact square between Uranus in Aries and Pluto in Capricorn draws closer, the atmosphere grows increasingly charged and I see the need to work hard to resolve our person levels of cognitive dissonance. There is little doubt the Uranus-Pluto square encourages extreme solutions . . . Uranus in Aries wants action NOW and Pluto in Capricorn will do just about anything to feel secure and in control. Saturn in Libra kept these two in check when they initially butted heads back in the summer of 2010 but now has moved on.

An example is the [...]

Libra Weekly Horoscopes for May 7, 2012

Once we get an irritating Mars in Virgo-Uranus in Aries inconjunct out of the way on Monday, the atmosphere settles down and turns mellower. This is the final inconjunct Mars in Virgo will make to Uranus and we can all be thankful. Aries and Virgo can really rub each other the wrong way. Aries is far too impatient for methodical Virgo and adding Uranus only makes matters worse.

On Tuesday Mercury FINALLY leaves Aries for Taurus! Once in Taurus it will make agreeable aspects to first Neptune in Pisces, then Mars in Virgo. Our [...]
