Some nurses believe that the Full Moon helps to induce childbirth and that more babies are born around the Full Moon, as you can read on this Full Moon Delivery Thread.
This Full Moon is in Pisces and opposes the Sun (as all Full Moon’s do), which is in Virgo. The opposition of the Sun and Moon tends to EXPOSE problems in relationships, or between the Conscious and Unconscious aspects of self. It also reveals issues that have been buried below the surface (commonly called Denial in Therapy).
This particular Full Moon highlights the common and conflicting aspects of Virgo and Pisces. This means that the Full Moon brings up issues of mental and physical health, details vs messiness, service and service jobs and employees and pets.
Today the Full Moon is in Gemini at 21′. This represents some sort of ending for words, communications, short trips or something connected to a sibling or neighbor. To see the whole Year’s Moon Phases go to this page.
The two weeks following a Full Moon are a time for us to release and let go of something connected to the sign of the Full Moon – in this case Gemini. This can mean anything that is governed by Gemini. Here is a partial list of Gemini ruled subjects:
Words
Reporters
Short Trips
Siblings
Neighbors
Ideas & Thoughts
Inner ‘mental tapes’ or self-talk
Petty Thieves
Directions
Concepts
Self-consciousness
Lies
Trickery
Sales
Marketing
Mind-Power
Additionally, the chart house where you are experiencing the Full Moon will impact what area of life you are being asked to let go of something.
For Example: The Full Moon in Gemini in your 5th house of lover’s, children and creative projects might ask you to change a way of communicating with children, or ask you to uncover and release trickery or lies, or it could show you where you have been mentally undisciplined or using negative self-talk around a creative project. These are all Gemini issues through the lens of the 5th house.
Another example might be: The Full Moon in Gemini in your 9th house of groups, foreigners, long journeys and higher education. The Full Moon in Gemini in the ninth house might suggest that there is some form of salesmanship connected to a cause or group you belong to that no longer works for you. Or it could suggest that there would be the arrival of a foreigner that puts an ending to something – like your usual trips around town. The Gemini Full Moon in the 9th house could also suggest an intentional lie, trickery or mental deception on a group level, in an arena such as sports, education, foreign affairs, political groups or other organization.
These are just a few examples of what the Gemini Full Moon could mean in different chart houses. Below are the houses and their meanings:
1st house: Self expression, how others see you
2nd house: Money and possessions, sensuality
3rd house: Siblings, Neighbors, short trips and communication
4th house: Home and immediate family, emotional roots, Mom
5th house: Children, creative projects, lovers and pleasures
6th house: Routines, work, employee’s, pets, health
7th house: Partnerships, justice, legalities, contract
8th house: Shared finances, stocks, bonds, mortgages, sex & death
9th house: Groups, foreigners, higher education, philosophy
10th house: Career, reputation, Status symbols, Dad
11th house: Politics, Humanitarian causes, social groups, parties, complicated systems
12th house: The unconscious, dreams, secrets, mysticism, art, insanity
You can use this guide to get a better idea of what the Full Moon in Gemini means to you, and what you are being asked to let go of over the next 2 weeks.

Here’s one for the record books: there is now a product available that helps you to get the best workout based on your SIGN. Astrology has been used for a lot of things, but this one is new to me.
We can easily use Astrology to pick a good date to start an exercise program, which is called Electional Astrology and is one of the areas that I specialize in (To set up a private session, call my office at (310) 455-2210). But an Astrological workout is completely new.
The DVD is scheduled to be released at Amazon.com and Astrology.com for $24.95 later this month.
On a related note, medical astrology has been around for centuries. There was a time when medical treatment wouldn’t have been considered complete without consulting the stars. Today, there is ample evidence of the Full Moon causing both excessive blood flow and filled ER rooms, and yet today Astrology is still ignored by Western medicine.
At the very least, the Hospital could be prepared for heavy Emergency Room demand by having plenty of staff on schedule during the Full Moon phase. And if YOU are electing to have surgery – avoid the Full Moon for it, since it adds to swelling, bruising and bleeding. Especially in water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces).
More specifics require personalized attention though, which you can get by calling my office to schedule a Astrology appointment (310) 455-2210.

War
Conquest
Inspiration
Recklessness

These are all Aries issues through the lens of the 5th house.

The New Moon happens 13 times a year – surprise! We normally think that there are only 12 months, but in reality there are 13 LUNAR moths per year. The New Moon takes place when the Sun and the Moon are together in the same sign. This is why there is no light reflected on the Moon. The Sun is actually behind the Moon – and therefore we cannot see it reflecting light on the Moon’s face.
The New Moon is a time of New Beginnings. The light of the Moon is fresh and begins to increase in it’s intensity through the following 2 weeks. As the Moon increases it’s light it is called a waxing moon, but as it decreases – which happens for the 2 weeks following the FULL Moon – it is said to be waning.
As you watch the Moon in the sky, from night to night, you can see it either increase or decrease in light. As it increases, following the full darkness of the New Moon, the light of the Moon can be seen to begin from the right side and creep slowly across the face of the Moon towards the left side. Hebrew is said to be read from right to left to mirror the movement of the Moon’s light. English, on the other hand moves in the opposite direction across a page – left to right.
Psychologically and spiritually the Right side of the body is extroverted, logical and masculine in nature, while the left side is introverted, visual and feminine. When we say that someone is ‘right brained’ we refer to them as creative and visual. This is because the right side of the brain rules the Left side of the body and vice-a-versa. The way in which English is read is a reflection of our English speaking way of approaching life as if the Masculine has the final say in things. The English speaking world favors logical masculine thinking and ways of being. But the Moon reminds us that the great feminine (which the Moon represents) operates in the opposite way.
If you would like a lot of left brained-logic oriented mathematical equations that explain how the New Moon works in extreme logical terms then visit this Logical New Moon link. It is a purely left brained explanation, which leaves the entire SPIRIT that the Moon Represents out of the picture all together. One of the best descriptions of schizophrenia I have heard, described it as such an extreme of left-brained logic that the person (schizophrenic) cannot make normal intuitive leaps of insight. Thus the Schizophrenic ‘feeds’ orange juice to his car, because when it ran out of gas it was ‘hungry.’ This is a true story, by the way.
Logically correct, yet completely wrong. On the other hand a purely Right brained, intuitive, touchy feely (but logically mushy) explanation of the New Moon can be found here at this imaginary New Moon link. The goal of course is to balance the two halves.
The Moon represents the unconscious, both individually and collectively. It is obedient and does what we ask it to, which is why we need to start asking it very clear and specific questions – especially at the time of the New Moon.
The Days of the New Moon is the time to concentrate on New Beginnings and fresh starts that we want to accomplish. The Sign that the Moon is in will determine what area of life that new beginnings will be favored. For example, a New Moon in Leo is a great time to plan a celebration or party, but a New Moon in Scorpio would NOT be! In Scorpio the New Moon favors delving into mysteries, getting loans or joining forces with someone else to accomplish a goal.
The following links explain more about each sign and what it governs:
This means that for the next few weeks we will be playing ‘goundhogs day’ with the events that took place from about May 12-26. Expect to see and hear from those people again, expect to have the same information come across your desk (or inbox), expect to have those contracts you thought would be finished come back to you revised and changed. Expect the neighbor kids to play a lot of basketball in front of your house while shouting wildly, expect to get strange news from your siblings or co-workers. It’s all part of God’s punchline. These are all things governed by Gemini.
I could regale you with stories of my travels to the East Coast on Labor day weekend (when Merc was slowing down). I could tell you all about the flight delay, getting in too late to get a rental car, then the booked up hotels, forcing me into the worst over-priced room I’ve ever stayed at; with no hot water for a shower in the morning. I could tell you about how the place I reserved my car CLOSED at 12 noon, so when I got there at 1 pm I had to turn around and go back to the airport – an hour away – to get a car (at 3 times the price). I could go on and on. But then I would be acting like Gemini!
The good news: I bought my tix way in advance and it all worked out. The better news; having a great time with friends I haven’t seen for ages. Mercury RETROGRADE brings people back to our life – be prepared!
On June 3rd the NEW MOON triggers all this RETRO activity. Get ready because things should get very interesting for the next few weeks. It’s all about negotiation (planets are in Gemini!) It’s all about NEW BEGINNINGS after the 3rd – but those new beginning negotiations could be bumpy because there will be review and re-review for the next few weeks (remember Mercury Retrograde? )
The Spring Equinox takes place on March 21st – right in line with the Passover season. Many will be surprised to learn that passover is not simply a Jewish tradition. it is also a Christian and Catholic one, since it is referred to in the Bible in many places. The differences are connected to how this date is observed by the different religions.
RELIGION: The Christian symbolism is of Jesus on the Cross, then resurrected on Passover/Easter. A cross is an Astrological phenomenon.
On the 21st we have a Full Moon with the Sun in Aries and the Moon In Libra – both at 1′ and both are squaring Pluto at 1′ Capricorn. Some Astrologers are calling this a Grand Cross because of Mars’ location at 6′ Cancer. This is too wide for me to count and I call this pattern a T-square. A t-square is more difficult than a Grand Cross because it is not in balance, a grand square (cross) is hard, but balanced.
BUT – this T-square has future impact because all 3 t-square planets will eventually arrive at the 6th degree and then go through the doorway that has been opened by Mars over the past 6 months, starting in October of 07.
THE MARS DOORWAY: Action, crisis and warfare. Crisis between the genders, the ‘battle of the sexes.’ All of this was activated between the degrees of 24′ Gemini and 12′ Cancer. The activation laid the groundwork for events that will land up to 6 years into the future.
THE PIVOTAL DEGREES: We are most concerned with the degrees of 0′-8′ in the Cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn). These are perhaps the most important of our lifetime and on our planet because they rule the North and South poles and by extension the 4 directions. They are deeply and intimately tied to the climate, the Earth and issues of Global Warming.
Cancer: The divine Feminine – especially at the 0′ of Cancer. This is the Summer Solstice degree and the point of greatest HEAT – emotionally, psychologically, personally. During the Summer Solstice the SUN is way up North in the Tropic of Cancer, as far towards the North Pole as it ever gets.
Capricorn: The oppressor – especially at the 0′ of Capricorn. This is the Winter Solstice degree and the point of greatest darkness, coldness and difficulty. At this time the SUN is way DOWN SOUTH, as far as it ever gets, and is in the Tropic of Capricorn (it’s all starting to make sense now isn’t it?)
Libra: The Harvest – the balanced female energy, especially at 0′ Libra. This is the Fall Equinox when the SUN sits right at our equator. The day and night are of equal length, but getting shorter. The job of libra is to balance the EXTREMES.
Aries: New Life – the balanced male energy, especially at 0′Aries. This is the Spring Equinox (Passover). Again the SUN sits right at the equator and day and night are equal but getting longer. The job of Aries is to push the limits to their EXTREMES.
Today on planet Earth the Magnetic North and physical North are Not at the same place.(the same is true for South, West and East).
Why is this so? Science cannot answer that question. The guidance and spiritual messages I have been given tell me that they were once in perfect alignment. It was the instant that humans began to separate the Spiritual from the Physical side of existence that the Magnetic poles began to migrate away from ‘HOME.’
Today we experience this as greater and greater drama, conflict and upheaval as the 4 directional energies must constantly fight and re-correct in order to establish balance. This balance was once normal and natural. Today it is gone. Leaving us in a constant state of trying to find it again.
PROOF THAT THIS MEANS SOMETHING:
OK, I can’t quote emissions standards, ocean current changes or wind patterns and have it make any sense in relation to the PIVOTAL DEGREES, but what I can do, and ask you to do to prove that there is at least something going on here is to take out a raw EGG and balance it on a hard surface – even glass or metal. What is most remarkable is that it should balance in under a minute and it should balance on it’s NARROW POINTY END.
VIDEO: Raw Egg Balanced on POINTY END
The only times in the year when this is possible is on the Spring and Fall Equinox.
Try again on the 23rd and it won’t happen. Try it today and it won’t happen (unless this is an Equinox).
Isn’t it INTERESTING that the traditional Easter Egg hunt uses cooked eggs? Easter always takes place on the First Sunday after the Full Moon in March (which is after the Equinox) and not on a fixed date.
This experiment won’t work with a cooked egg. It also won’t work on a date that follows the Equinox. Somebody, somewhere decided to move the celebration away from the time and date when the MAGIC COULD BE PROVEN.
This effects everyone in the areas of: Traditions, Mother/Father social roles, Partnership and self vs. other in all personal involvements.
It is no accident that this year we are witnessing a woman running for president. It represents the PIVOTAL DEGREES IN ACTIVATION.
I am NOT making a political statement! A woman becoming president has many more layers of meaning than anyone has yet addressed out loud. I will go into this more in later articles.
What does it mean? Within hours of the actual equinox the MOON will square Mars causing conflict and tension in relationships and especially connected to young man and Mother figure archetypes. About 3 days later The Sun will Square Mars creating conflict between that which is traditional and governed by older men VS the archetype of the young man or warrior.
Finally in 3-6 years (this aspect happens 3 times) we have a conflict between Pluto in opposition to the MARS degree. This is a conflict of pure raw power and pits group power – the kind found in Corporations VS the young man or warrior.
OVERALL this signals a period of greater and greater conflict and warfare on the planet, one which is based in the struggles between the sexes and the desire for power. Corporations will figure prominently in the designs to take over power and control. I DON’T CARE WHO IS PRESIDENT. These things will take place regardless of who sits in the White House. But for the record you can read my Presidential Prediction article, which has caused some heavy debate.
Within 3-6 years Corporations may take over the powers of Government, and even if they don’t yet succeed – they will be trying to.
EVIDENCE? Open up a newspaper. Look at the collapsing Mortgage industries. JP Morgan is bailing out Bear Stearns at this very moment. The Government is almost a bystander in all of this. Who will have the power in the end? The Government will bail out the corporations first, before individuals, if they even have to money to do so. This is what they did in the 80’s with the S&L fiasco. Who does it give power to? The corporations.
What does this mean for you? Only a private reading will be able to give you those answers.
As you can see, this is a complex set of issues. Every person represents a complicated set of talents and challenges as well! It takes deep thinking to see all of this. To set up an appointment with me you can call (310) 455-2210.
The Solar Eclipse Happens twice a year and each one has a different impact Astrologically. The Solar Eclipse may be partial or total depending on where you are on the planet. You can get a list of all the Eclipse’s and where they will be felt at NASA. The location also determines it’s strength on your Horoscope. According to Astrology the more complete the Eclipse the more powerful it is. If you are viewing a total eclipse then you are in the area where it is MOST potent. The influence of the Eclipse is felt for up to 3 months ahead and 3 months after it takes place, but most powerfully during the two weeks on either side of it.
During the Solar Eclipse it is the image of the Moon that covers that of the Sun.
The Solar Eclipse always has an impact on Leo people because the Sun rules Leo. The Solar Eclipse also impacts Cancer because the Moon rules Cancer. The actual aspects that each Eclipse makes to other planets is what determines it’s impact. For example a Solar Eclipse that connects with Mars will have some relationship with warfare, sports, competitions or bodybuilding (among other things). On the other hand, if the Eclipse is impacting Neptune it will influence the gasoline market, minerals, gold, the housing market and many other business areas. Connected to Mercury it will impact short trips, journeys, conversations, news, sales and the use of words. This is why every Eclipse is different.
Finally, to understand what the Eclipse is doing for you personally, you want to see which of YOUR planets are being impacted. You will experience the character of the Eclipse (which planets it connects to) felt in the area of your OWN planets that are effected. For example: if there is a Solar Eclipse connected to Mercury then the EVENT will relate to news, communication or messages (fax, phone, e-mail etc). If it connects to YOUR Mars, it could make you mad, cause you to feel sexual attraction, make you feel competitive or make you want to get in a fight. These are just a few ideas about how the Solar Eclipse might impact you.
There is an Eclipse in Virgo today (Feb 20). It is a total Lunar Eclipse – completely blocking out the Sun for those of us living in the US. The Eclipse takes place at 2′ Virgo and will impact you directly if you have planets in your own chart at 28′-5′ of any sign, or if you were born on the cusp of your sign. To view a short video I create about the Lunar Eclipse and help you understand how it works:
Because this is a total Eclipse it is extremely emotional. It also impacts the seasonal degrees (0′ Cancer, 0′ Capricorn, 0′ Aries and 0′ Libra) which are the most primal degrees that we have here on planet Earth. This picture relates directly to our approach to survival on the planet and our ways of being either in alignment or the way we live today which is (mostly) out of alignment with mother Earth.
The influence of Virgo is very related to the routines we are in and how they impact our physical health. Accordingly (and disturbingly) yesterday there was a story on NPR about colonies of bats being wiped out by a strange new health problem. This is being compared to colony collapse syndrome which has decimated the US honeybee population. This is extremely upsettings since Honey is one of natures ways to boost the human immune system, and the health of the bee population directly effects the health of the human population. So far, science can’t even figure out what’s killing these bats – virus, poison, climate, etc. Any farmer will tell you that Bats really help in keeping down the pests to crops, so this could lead to really disastrous consequences.
To me this speaks to the issue of health problems that were previously secret coming into our awareness. Ultimately, it comes back to a core principle that I hold about sustainability and what it means to be and create a sustainable life that will bring us security, support, joy and health.
Most of our current systems are based on a pyramid system. This system is NOT sustainable and only the person(s) at the top reap the rewards of such a system. The people at the top also hold the power. Sustainable systems are based on a circular or hub style shape. They share power and work in a model that empowers each and every participant. This empowerment allows every one of its members to feel valued, supported and given what they need. Pyramid systems nearly always benefit a few select members at the expense of those at the bottom or base of the pyramid.
All get rich quick systems promote the idea that once you get involved you will get to the ‘top’ of the pyramid and reap the rewards. These systems work, but only for the person who is really at the top, and that person is the person selling to you NOT you!
What has this got to do with the Eclipse you may be asking yourself right now. Well, everything actually. This eclipse is bringing up feelings of disappointment, alienation, frustration and failure for many people, not to mention physical illness. These are emotional feelings. But most of us cannot quite put our finger on the source of the problems.
The reason for this message is to point out that the real source of the problem is the false foundations under which many of us are living – and laboring. These false foundations are those that are not sustainable, and they are mostly connected to our extensive efforts in the world that are usually supporting the lifestyle and dreams of other people, not ourselves.
The opportunity here is to look inward and decide how to create a different and TRULY SUSTAINABLE system in your own life. Here is an idea that I believe truly represents this sustainable system.
visit Humanity Unites Brilliance for more info. If you want to learn more then send an email to auracle*astrologychick.com.The Eclipse is bringing the problems of non-sustainable (pyramid) systems to the surface. The solution is to create a new system. The foundation for creating a new system is the willingness to take full responsibility for creating it in our own lives.
The Void-of-course Moon rules go like this: When the Moon has made her last aspect in a sign before moving to the next sign she is in the state of Void-of-course, also known as the Void Moon. This essentially means that all her work is done in the outer world. It also means that actions taken or started during the Void Moon time wind up being ‘null and void’ – they don’t lead to anything.
BUT, the Void Moon IS good for a few things, especially for inner work, deep reflection, psychic development and bringing spiritual meaning to your life. It is probably the MOST powerful time for the Occult. And of course, my favorite observation about the void is that it is best used for HUMOR, some of my favorite side splitting moments, rolling on the ground laughing hysterically are because of the Moon Void. So, please enjoy it responsibly.
A member of my family is born under a Void Moon so it has been a lifelong study for me. I wondered if that meant the usual Void of Course rules would or would not apply.
We tested it one year by filing her taxes during a Void moon.
That was the year when she got audited. YIKES! Void Moon person, using Void moon = NOT VOID EXPERIENCE. We have since come to the conclusion that the VOID MOON time is especially powerful for her – but only because her OWN MOON IS VOID. it also means that normal timing doesn’t work for her – most of what she tries is ineffective in the outside world *except during the Void Moon, at that time she produces almost super-powered results.*
For most people the opposite is true. Nothing happens when normal people do things on the Void Moon.
The moral of the story? If you have a normal Moon in your chart then DON’T EVER DO ANYTHING IMPORTANT DURING THE VOID MOON! The exception is if your own Moon is Void. This is extremely rare – and therefore unlikely. The quick way to check is to see if your Moon is sitting at 28, 29 or 0 degrees of the sign. If so it *may* be void, and bears further investigation. If your Moon is at 25 degrees or earlier, chances are you do NOT have a Void Moon.

Today was the Superbowl. Today was the biggest Superbowl upset in HISTORY. This news story is all over the world, the forums are on fire with hot discussion about it, and doesn’t exactly surprise me to see it.
I am not a huge Football fan, but I usually watch the Superbowl. This one happened so close to the Solar Eclipse on the 7th that public upsets and surprises were almost to be expected. The Eclipse is in Aquarius – which effects masses of people, but to me that’s not enough to explain WHY FOOTBALL?!? And for that I gotta tag the Movement of Retrograde Mercury attached to the Eclipse itself.
This means news, strange news, and especially news about the leader (in this case the Patriots) disappearing from view. The Patriots were supposed to have this win all sewn up and in the bag. How could things go so wrong? Blame it on this strange twisted Mercury Retrograde + Solar Eclipse.
And that’s not all SUPER TUESDAY – when we all vote for our primary candidates – will also be effected by this Solar Eclipse. Oh yeah baby, the news has only just started to spin. Pretty soon all of our heads will be spinning too, just you wait. A Solar Eclipse nearly always steals the thunder away from the ‘Golden Boy’ or favored winner. But throw Retrograde Mercury in the mix and we’ve got a recipe for some very spicy news, gossip, politics and fried computer wires.
This month we have two eclipses, starting with the one on the 7th – a Solar Eclipse in Aquarius. The Lunar Eclipse in Virgo takes place later in the month on the 21st. To get a more scientific eclipse explanation check out NASA and get the whole technical skinny on it.
Since every eclipse involves the Sun & Moon they automatically impact Leo and Cancer people. But the real story is always told in the ASPECTS and not every eclipse will aspect every person – thank god! Otherwise our lives would be nonstop endless drama! That’s what direct Eclipse hits tend to do to us! So if you’d like to see what the current pair of Eclipse’s is doing for (or to) you have a report done, that will give you an overview of the 6 month trend – with all the specific aspects – you are experiencing.
Later this year we have two more Eclipses, a Total Solar Eclipse on August 1 in Leo and Lunar Eclipse August 16 in Aquarius. To really understand the Eclipse’s we need to pay attention to the Moon’s Nodes and Saros Series of the Eclipse pattern. The Nodes are also called the Head of the Dragon and the Tail of the Dragon and they represent the souls journey towards spiritual development (Head of the Dragon) or away from it and towards darkness. Collectively on the date of an Eclipse the Head and Tail of the dragon show us where we are all either collectively moving towards a dream or aspiration vs. how and where we are all collectively delving into our darker or shadowy nature.
You can see where every eclipse takes place here if you want to take a sightseeing trip!
