Astrology Forecast January 17 – 23, 2022
Hope you rested up the last two weeks, as the astrological events in the heavens this week could have us running on all cylinders!
A Cancer Full Moon, also known as the ‘Wolf’ Moon greets us today, which could make us moody and not really interested in work or socializing. Get what you can off your plate before noon, so you don’t feel overwhelmed or frustrated later in the day, as the Cancer Moon opposition with Pluto in Capricorn may have us feeling even more dejected and in a sulky mood.
Cancer Full Moons are also notorious for predisposing us to family drama and triggering disputes with loved ones and relatives, so find your calm center before you leave work to go home. Also take special care with your personal health this afternoon, as we tend to be more vulnerable to illness under this lunar influence.
By the way, Full Moons are a good time for release, so you may want to consider what you’re ready to let go of in your life to get what you want. Friendships? Clutter? Financial obligations that are needlessly draining your pocketbook? Release what no longer serves you.
Things will be a little brighter tomorrow, as the Moon moves into Leo, and Uranus resumes forward motion in Taurus after 5 months to clear away the sense of frustration that many of us have been feeling.
On Wednesday the Sun will move into the dazzling sign of Aquarius and move us to yet another level of freedom, provided we’re ready to experience the new and unusual! New ideas and innovative thoughts will come our way. And Thursday and Friday’s Virgo Moon will have us processing and sorting through each and every one of them.
Take heart, as after a week of several shifts and turns, this weekend’s Libra Moon will work to restore a sense of balance and harmony to our lives before we move forward.
Astrology Forecast December 20 – 26, 2021
Christmas week this year should unfold without any major astrological challenges or glitches.
The Cancer Moon today and tomorrow will have us preoccupied with finalizing our holiday plans, and making sure all is in order for the celebrations that lay ahead. Fortunately, Mercury in Capricorn trine Uranus in Taurus will inspire a determined, inventive state of mind, making unconventional problem-solving an effortless possibility.
The Sun will also move into Capricorn tomorrow, giving us the extra boost we may need to complete all the tasks necessary before the year’s end.
With the Moon prowling through Leo on Wednesday and Thursday, we’ll have to be careful to watch our ego. Remember that giving is more important than receiving, and this is not just limited to Christmas boxes and bows. Loved ones need to know you care, and generous messages from the heart will be worth much more than overpriced, last-minute holiday gifts!
Christmas will be under a Virgo Moon, making it essential that we pay close attention to details and adjust expectations accordingly. We are often prone to visualizing exactly what or how things should happen on these very special days, and that can set us up for disappointment. Instead, focus on the true spirit of the season and the true joy that cannot be wrapped up in colorful paper.
Beware the Virgo Moon opposition with Neptune in Pisces late on Christmas day, as this constellation may leave us feeling nervous and highly sensitive. It can also cause people to be somewhat disingenuous and insincere. So, if you are entertaining judgmental, demanding relatives, be careful not to let them get under your skin!
Restoring our balance should be easy under Sunday’s Libra Moon, when we can all step back and appreciate the true beauty that dwells in our lives, not just on Christmas, but every day of the year.
Astrology Forecast November 22 – 28, 2021
This week we are officially celebrating Thanksgiving in the USA, but a sense of gratitude and appreciation are also likely to be felt globally all week long as the Sun moves deeper into Sagittarius.
Suitably, a Cancer Moon today and tomorrow, makes our main focus home, family and tradition as we prepare for the upcoming holiday on Thursday. Preparing for the first official holiday of the season will likely be more gratifying and joyful than the event itself, so feel free to dive right into creating the perfect backdrop to Thanksgiving gatherings.
Mercury will move into Sagittarius on Wednesday, just in time for the festivities. Communication, self-expression, reconnecting with loved ones from afar and general sharing of past memories will be a theme from now through the end of the year.
Wednesday’s Leo Moon square Uranus in Taurus can cause some of us to be unpredictable, restless and fickle, which can lead to unnecessary disruption in our personal life and romantic relationships. To make matters worse, the Leo Moon opposite Saturn in Aquarius can cause us to be dissatisfied with life in general, melancholic or even depressed. We could easily feel lonely and abandoned.
The Leo Moon will also have some people shopping the sales this week, while others choose to focus on self-care and regrouping after a hectic week. That’s a good idea too, because the weekend unfolds under a Virgo Moon, where we’ll be busy making plans for the holiday season ahead. Lists and more lists will be the order of the day, but in between all that planning, be sure to stop here and there to smell the roses and give thanks for the blessings in your life.
Astrology Forecast October 25 – 31, 2021
Happy Samhain and Halloween! This final week of October culminating in the sacred Celtic holiday should run quite smoothly. A Gemini Moon today, followed by tomorrow and Wednesday’s Cancer Moon, will put us in the mood to embrace the spiritual tones of the season.
Two favorable aspects join forces today to inspire personal power and achievement in our lives. The Gemini Moon trine Mars in Libra will boost our willpower and resourcefulness to get some practical things done, while the Gemini Moon trine Jupiter in Aquarius will have us feeling positive, optimistic and popular.
We often present different facades and keep up appearance for the different people in our lives and this is a great time to examine why we do this and how well it is working for us. There will be an energy in the air this week to express ourselves more authentically or to show more of our true nature to the world, especially as the Moon travels through Leo on Thursday and Friday.
There’s a tendency to overthink things as the Moon moves through Virgo on Saturday and Sunday, so try to avoid those mental gymnastics and be sure to watch for critical thinking or high idealism, as these two mental activities can only get you into hot water this weekend!
Mars will move into Scorpio on Saturday, where it will spend the next two months shifting our actions and movements in subtle spiritual ways. Though our journey may not make sense or could change direction at a moment’s notice before the end of the year, we can trust that spirit is in charge now and directing the traffic.
Astrology Forecast August 30 – September 5, 2021
There is a fairly quiet vibe in the heavens this week, with no major astrological influences.
Today and tomorrow the Moon will travel through Gemini, inviting us to be more social. With Mercury in Libra today, this is also a good time to engage our talents for performing and public speaking. These are also good days to research information, consider your options, and change up your plans to suit your moods and desires.
Today’s Gemini Moon trine Venus in Libra is a powerful energy for romance, love and marriage. You and your partner may be unusually reliable and cheerful with each other today, and it should be easy for you to avoid arguments or conflicts in your relationship.
We will seek the comfort of home under Wednesday and Thursday’s Cancer Moon, choosing to focus on household chores or hide out under the covers in domestic solitude.
On Thursday the Mars in Virgo opposition with Neptune in Pisces could lead to a situation that you may not wish to deal with, but don’t avoid it. Instead, muster your inner strength and courage to face the issue and resolve the problem as quickly and calmly as possible. You will thank yourself for it later!
The only real action of the week heats up on Friday and through the weekend as the Moon dances into vibrant Leo and inspires us to shine. Leo represents generosity, love of self, and adventure, so we’ll move with our intuition to whatever calls us. As we close out the final days of summer and prepare to move into a new month and season, we’ll be finishing up undone tasks and mapping out a plan to bring our dreams for the future into being.
Astrology Forecast August 9 – 15, 2021
You may feel overwhelmed or take on too much today and tomorrow, as the Moon moves through expansive Virgo. Remember to pace yourself and where possible, delegate!
Venus in Virgo opposite Neptune in Pisces could create some awkwardness in our relationships and romantic lives today. Former sexual inhibitions or shyness may resurface, or unfilled erotic desires may emerge that could lead to uncharacteristic behavior and unwise sexual choices. Avoid the temptation to stray from a committed relationship today, as it may not end well.
Tomorrow’s Mercury in Leo opposition to Jupiter in Aquarius may cause conflict in discussions about religion and politics. We may also be prone to talk to much and even reveal confidential information that is not ours to disclose. So, tomorrow it may be best to keep our opinions to ourselves, stay out of the office gossip, and say as little as possible, despite our burning curiosity.
The Libra Moon will fortunately lighten the mood for the second half of the week, allowing us to flow with more realistic and achievable goals. That will be punctuated by Mercury’s move into Virgo – it’s ruling sign. It is the perfect time to brainstorm, map out a plan of action, or gather missing details for future projects.
Mercury in Virgo has a way of bringing forgotten ideas to the surface, so we may experience an ‘aha moment’ later this week, as we recall important obligations that have fallen to the back burner. We may also think of friends we’ve lost touch with (social media could reconnect us) and go in search of lost items or paperwork.
A Scorpio Moon this weekend will inspire us to dive deeper into neglected creative or spiritual pursuits. And with Venus moving into its ruling sign of Libra, romance or the search for true love could also prove a fruitful endeavor on Sunday.
Astrology Forecast August 2 – 8, 2021
This week will produce more talk than action as it kicks off under a socially-oriented Gemini Moon. Sharing ideas, spouting opinions, and a higher than usual volume of Google searches and YouTube watching will the themes for today and tomorrow, as we strive to learn something new or get our ideas confirmed.
The Leo Sun opposition with Saturn in Aquarius may cause professional problems today. If you feel unsure about a work or business decision be careful not to overreact with fake confidence. If you need advice, reach out to your dad or mentor, or a father-figure in you life.
Tomorrow will be a good time to ask someone on a date or reach out to a current love interest, as Venus in Virgo trine Uranus in Taurus will get us in the mood for love and romance.
We’ll be operating in slow motion as the Moon dances through Cancer Wednesday through Friday, where the most we’ll be able to accomplish might be a good house cleaning or redecorating project. We’ll need to focus on balance, as a tendency to people-please or give away something we need may tend to prevail.
So, to use this energy more wisely, it’s a great time to give to yourself and to go with the flow, rather than worrying about what you ‘should be doing,’ or how to get to chores and obligations. There will be plenty of time for that when the Moon moves into Leo on Saturday and revives our energy and focus.
Sunday’s Leo New Moon promises that we’re ready to move into new ventures, projects, and cycles of attainment over the next two weeks, so get ready to rock and roll.
