Let me interrupt this forecast with some very good news – Mercury turns direct at 3:17 PM EST and should fee up any communication tensions you have had over the last three weeks. Anything that you have put off till the retrograde is over, you are now free to proceed with, and you should begin to see steady improvement in all affairs rules by Mercury over the next two weeks.

… Now on with the forecast:

Today, the Sun and Moon will conjoin in Scorpio. Relationships will come into focus as we find ourselves more social than normal. It is a great day for romance, spending time with our friends and generally enjoying life. Since Venus loves a little bit of indulgence, spend the day relaxing and luxuriating; make a nice satisfying meal with all the foods you love or buy yourself something you have been eyeballing at the store. All financial activities are beneficial today, so take advantage of this energy to get in on a good deal!

Have an amazing Saturday!

Your Daily Dose — Mercury Rx sextile Jupiter — October 20, 2014

October 20, 2014 by Storm Cestavani Leave a Comment

Today, Mercury retrograde in Libra creates a harmonious aspect (sextile) to expansive and benefic Jupiter in Leo. The good news about this aspect is that it is naturally self-reflective, so there is not much of a need to tweak Mercury.

Mercury in aspect to Jupiter gives us the ability to see potentials and possibilities in life. We move beyond our day to day focus and begin to see the big picture. Understanding what you truly want and need out of life and creating a plan to get there is a major key towards self-actualization and builds the proverbial bridge to inner happiness. Further, your mood should be rather optimistic and you will find others enjoy being around you at this time.

Business wise today is an amazing day. The positive aspect between Mercury and Jupiter are favorable for negotiations, transactions, and since Jupiter naturally rules the 9^th house of legal affairs this is a great time to resolve any past legal matters and ultimately put a positive end to them. However, with Mercury being retrograde contract negotiations should be avoided until after October 25^th.

Have an amazingly inspired day!

Your Daily Dose — Mercury sextile Mars, Mercury conjunct Sun — Oct 16, 2014

October 16, 2014 by Storm Cestavani Leave a Comment

Sun in Libra conjunct Mercury in Libra
Mercury in Libra sextile Mars in Sagittarius

The good vibrations from the cosmos continue to roll in today as the Sun in Libra conjoins with Mercury and Mercury makes a lovely aspect to Mars. The one thing that we have to keep in mind is that Mercury is retrograde, so we will have to tweak our interpretations slightly.

First, let’s take Sun conjunct Mercury. In normal circumstances, this would be a great day to communicate our ideals and thoughts with others. There is a clear flow of energy between these two planets that allows us to get our point of view across productively. However, since Mercury is retrograde this is a great opportunity for you to reflect on the current state of your life and decide whether or not you are getting your inner needs met. Additionally, it’s a great time to understand those around you better than ever before because Sun conjoined with Mercury gives us perceptive insight.

This dovetails straight into Mercury sextile Mars. Normally, this would be a great time to get things done because Mars fires up Mercury and it’s great for completing tasks and completely jobs that may need to be finished. Yet, Mercury retrograde instructs us to turn this inward and actually gives you the courage and initiative to take care of your inner needs and express your wants, needs, and desires. Since this aspect is beneficial, you will notice it easier than ever before to get people to be responsive to your needs because they will be more receptive to you at this time. Finally, if new opportunities come your way today, consider them but do not take action until after Mercury goes direct.

Mercury Retrograde in Pisces — Today’s Astrology — February 6, 2014

February 5, 2014 by admin Leave a Comment

Mercury Retrograde in Pisces at 4:43 PM EST / 1:43 PM PST

Grab your charts. If you need a copy of yours, you can get one for free at my website. If you have any planets in Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, or Pisces then this astrological energy will be of increased significance to you.

It’s that time again! That dastardly mischievous and trickster planet Mercury will go retrograde on Thursday. So, before I get into the delineation of the meaning of Mercury retrograde, I must remind everyone that problems with electronics, travel plans, traveling, communication will become challenging over the next three weeks. In addition, this is not the time to make big purchases, sign documents, or move from one residence to another. However, it is a time for deep reflection.

Mercury retrograde is one of the few astrological terms that has made its way into pop culture. Of all the day to day astrological phenomena, it is the most annoying and those that follow astrology all shriek whenever this retrogradation appears. However, Mercury rules our mind and our ability to process data and information. As annoying as it may be Mercury retrograde is a necessary process of development as it lets us sort through the information we have acquired since the last Mercury retrograde period (it ended on November 10, 2013) and begin to use this information to make choices and decisions about our future.

This Mercury retrograde is in the sign of Pisces. Although Pisces is known in spiritual based circles as the sign of spirituality (of which it can be), during this retrograde period it’s more likely to show its more negative face – confusion, doubt, addictions, and self-defeating behavior. If you notice these feelings and behaviors rising to the surface it’s time to take some time to reflects and see where they are coming from. After all, we can use this energy in a positive way to modify old and existing habits and use Mercury’s power of understanding to eliminate the effect they have on our lives.

In the world chart (set for Jerusalem in Kabbalah), Scorpio is rising indicating mental anxiety and anguish, which is compounded by Saturn being in the first house of the chart ruling both our thoughts (the third house) and emotions (the fourth house). Mercury sits in the emotional based fourth house of the chart conjoined to both Neptune (confusion) and Chiron (wounds). Further, Mercury rules the 8^th house (death and regeneration) and the 11^th house (social circle, our need to be part of a group). As you can see from this configuration, relationships with others can be highly influenced during this cycle and with Scorpio rising conflicts may occur which may need to be addressed as they arise. Regardless of the difficulties, problems that occur are usually rectified once Mercury goes direct, yet it is important for us to remember that worldly problems are usually the result of internal problems that ultimately need to be addressed.

Mercury goes direct on February 28^th.

Mercury Square Saturn — Today’s Astrology — January 25, 2014

January 23, 2014 by admin Leave a Comment

Mercury in Aquarius will square Saturn in Scorpio at 6:56 AM EST / 3:56 AM PST

Grab your charts. If you need a copy of yours, you can get one for free at my website. If you have any planets around 18-22 degrees of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio or Aquarius then this astrological energy will be of increased significance to you.

This week, Kabbalistically, we are in the portion of the Torah called ‘mishpatim’. This is one of the most predominant weekly portions amongst Kabbalistic scholars because the lesson is about slavery and the laws of cause and effect. The word ‘mishpatim’ means ordinances. In essence, it is about the laws that govern the universe. The insight of this particular portion is the realization that there are two realities – one reality being slavery to the material world and our emotions and the other reality being spirituality and our connection to the light. So, we are given an opportunity this week to choose whether we are slaves or spiritually free.

Yesterday, I wrote at length about aspects weaving into one another. Our current set of aspects began with the Venus – Mars square that occurred earlier in the month and has continued until we finally arrived at today’s aspect which is Mercury square Saturn. Venus – Mars brought to the surface problem areas in our relationships, Mercury sextile Uranus and Mercury trine Mars provided us with the insight to change our situation combined with the action to resolve our difficulties. However, Mercury square Saturn can often lead us to slipping back into our old behavioral patterns (often without realizing it) because they are familiar and easy.

How many times have you begun a new course or decided to behave in a different way or decided that a particular way someone was behaving was unacceptable? How many times have you created boundaries in your life only to slip back into old patterns a few days later? Although it may feel easier at the time, usually we feel guilty when the same problems begin to occur again in our lives. Mercury square Saturn is a test of whether or not we have the courage of our convictions. This is a very challenging aspect because Mercury rules the mind and Saturn rules limitations, and when the two get together one can often feel depressed, at odds with themselves, deeply conflicted, and can have great difficulty expressing themselves to others. This can lead us to seek solace of our past behavior patterns. This can be extremely problematic and can often lead us from a place of “freedom” back into the fettered clutches of slavery.
