Weekly Astrology Report
Sat May 28 2011 – Fri June 4 2011 - audio report
We have a very exciting week ahead. I’ve been getting a lot of calls asking if Mercury is retrograde. No, it is not. But there is an enormous amount of Gemini energy around. Mercury, the trickster, rules Gemini. But a major contributor to the chaos is Neptune. Mercury and Neptune will form a 90° square next week when Neptune stops for a retrograde station and after Mercury actually goes into the sign of Gemini. We will all be experiencing it as a Mercury retrograde period event though retro-Mercury’s turn does not occur until August 2nd but we will have an eclipse in Gemini this week.

When an eclipse occurs in a sign it amplifies the energies of that sign. Gemini is about scattering things off in all different directions. Nothing is focused. You could probably connect with a million people but making that one important connection may become illusive. You may share topics about your siblings or how your neighborhood changing. You may hear new stories daily. Gemini rules short trips. Not long trips. It would seem as though foreign travel is less likely during this next week or so. And short trips are necessary.
There are a lot of things that Gemini rules. Most importantly is your thinking process. If you write or journal now is the time to keep good notes. If you are inclined to take notes as an observer, record your ideas or draw pictures, then do so as your scratch pads could be useful later. With the Neptune influence it is a very creative period artistically, musically, and choreographically, and for all sorts of things. There is a brilliant vein of inspiration that can take you as far as the imagination can go. Although confusing on all sorts of other levels.
Taking a look at what some of these influences are for this week: lots of excitement and possible chaos. There are a few planets changing and the solar eclipse. Changes with Mercury, Jupiter, and Neptune will be responsible for increasing weather patterns, influencing economic sweeps and changing your perspective in a very big way. Shifting the political winds of foreign matters and government decisions will not be a surprise. You can find there is some support for keeping some semblance of order with a nice tie between the Sun and Saturn with 120 degrees and that is designed to allow you to gather loose ends. Currently everything is filled with loose ends enlarged with such a large dose of Gemini. You can tie down and batten the hatches if you need to. Keep your eye on things that resemble the original structured plan and try to stay within the lines and resist expanding outward during this period.

This is a dark Moon period, meaning we are missing important pieces of information in a big way because we are headed for the solar eclipse. More will be revealed and key players change their positions. It is similar to musical chairs. The solar eclipse occurs on June 1, Wednesday at 5:03 PM at 11° degrees of Gemini. It is the first of 5 eclipses at this degree which occur at a 19 year interval.

Not too long ago there was an eclipse very near by at 9 degrees Gemini back in May 2003. You may want to reflect on that period for repeat appearances of events developing or redeveloping in some from 2003. The eclipse will not be visible in the US or Europe. It will be a partial eclipse visible in eastern Asia, Greenland, and Iceland.
An eclipse in general amplifies planetary activities around it. Anything in the chart of the solar eclipse becomes bigger than life. Nothing is bigger than Jupiter now at 29 degrees of Aries. It is freeing up the space for the entrepreneur. It is widening the playing field for the individual, and extending some luck for some. So, you want to try and play your luck as well. Someone has to win, right? It might as well be you. Use your imagination and visualize an expanded lifestyle.

Jupiter now in Aries leaves for greener pastures on June 4 when it enters Taurus. That should be very interesting thing to look back in history there are some interesting dates that I’ve uncovered. I’m going to put them on my website, that are related past transits’ of Jupiter in Taurus. Most recently Jupiter made a conjunction to Saturn while in Taurus in the year 2000. That set the economic stage and the large global events that we continue to deal with as a result of that Jupiter -Saturn conjunction.

Also what we have a hard time pinning down is Neptune; famous for its clouds, illusions and it’s smoke screens. It really stirs up a lot of dust and makes it difficult to see past the cosmetic exteriors of so many important issues. Things come back from the past in a haunting fashion. It may seem everything is inside/out as you try to get your hands on important pieces to make things real or happen. That is the difficult part. Global events are very, very large. Along with that is a large dose of anesthesia that Neptune brings with it. If it hurts, if it is a difficult issue, if it is a painful issue you are likely to have a dose of Neptune’s anesthesia to help you through the bad times. Look beyond the pain for some of the comfort. There is a really strong indication for spiritual change as well. It is not from the pulpit. It is from that inner space where you take a leap of faith.

Also we have a Saturn Uranus opposition that lingers; these are all things that are in the chart of this eclipse: a Saturn Uranus opposition it seems to have been past is now revived as the pair squares Pluto in Capricorn. And those events that are famous for Saturn opposition Uranus are the election of Barack Obama; the economic crisis that started 3-4 months or so before that in the Bush Administration with the fall of the big banks. All of those topics are back up in a literal way. There are also some ground breaking events it can be literal too as far as earthquakes go and things of that nature. Sun and Saturn trine create this seat of justice that intervenes and tries to tie things down.

For the coming week it is great for conjuring up a magic spell so to speak but not great for structured plans as I had said. Oil could flow freely. That could lower the price of gasoline. Your imagination flows freely as well.

We have a Void of Course Moon period Sunday May 29 at 6:27 am until 9:01 am. Then the Moon enters Taurus. VOC Moon periods says you judgment is off. You don’t want to purchase things that you want to keep for a long time and nothing major because it could fall apart. Also you want to note that we are in the dark of the Moon period that begins on Tuesday evening May 31st right through until Friday morning at 3:00 AM June 3rd. Avoid outer changes and allow things come to you.

Tuesday VOC Moon at 4:43 pm. that VOC Moon ends with an excellent aspect between the Sun and the Moon. And then the VOC Moon period ends at 7:56 pm Tuesday when the Moon enters Gemini which will host the solar eclipse at 5:02 pm Wednesday June 1st. The Gemini Moon is VOC on Friday 4:07 AM until 4:36 AM. Then the Moon enters Cancer until the following Sunday.

The following shows the best days or times for taking advantage of green lights and that sort of thing to move forward. Try to move forward with older matters. Don’t start anything new. This is a clean up period. Prepare for new beginnings. Clean the slate and make way. Beginning today Saturday, May 28. Especially after 10:38 AM. You have to get past a 150° aspect between the Sun and Pluto at 10:38 AM. That is a quincunx which I call “life’s messy clean it up”. After that we have a green light period until 6:27 am Sunday morning May 29. On Sunday we have a good green light from 9:01am - 4:32 pm Tuesday, and then stop. Allow things to come to you and envision your best case scenario without taking any direct action outward. Meet, mix, and mingle with the social sign of Gemini emphasized. And another good day can be found next Saturday June 4 after 9:56 AM.

Run down of the aspects today: Sun quincunx Pluto 10:38 am. That one is tough. You may be up against a real tough guy, you need to make adjustments. It might be an old debt you must face. You need to clean up – for some it is a health aspect. On June 1 the Sun is trine Saturn at 5:15 am. This aspect is about keeping things together pulling things in that need to be connected to make things work. Mercury enters Gemini on June 2 at 4:02 pm. On June 3rd at 3:05 AM Mercury is then square Neptune. This one kicks up the wind. Could create a lot of bad weather. Also minutes later Neptune turns retrograde at 3:27 am on June 3rd until November 9, 2011.

Jupiter does change signs on June 4 from Aries to Taurus. We are looking at June 3 for the day where Jupiter is going to make its greatest expression laces with a large dose of Neptune and Mercury influences. It’s going to be wild. I’m going to take good notes.

I wish you a lot of good luck this week. It should be fun. If you are trying to reconnect with people you haven’t reached in a long time, then this would be the time to do that or watch them come to you. Matters with siblings might be large as you reconnect for important matters. Take stories that you hear with a grain of salt as not everything is real. There may be lots of lies out and misconceptions and disillusionment. Set your sights for a more intuitive relationship with your surroundings. That’s it for the week.

A big thank you, Kimberly Chin, for transcribing this report from the WZBC radio 90.3 FM.

Report for the week of May 21-28, 2011

Aside from the void Moon periods, the entire week shows positive influences for forwarding your goals with a Green Light every day. The twists emerge from the personal planets, Mercury, Venus and Mars all forming 150° angles to Saturn. Beginning with Mercury 150° Saturn on Monday very early at 2:06 AM having an influence over Sunday's evening's activities. Tuesday at 2:46 PM Venus moves out of her comfort zone to prompt Saturn with the 150° angle.
On Wednesday at 11:48 AM Mars will force an issue as it applies 150° to Saturn. Each of these 150° angles speak to the need to get things moving. See the notes for each of these aspects listed at the day of their appearance.
Many events will occur seemingly out of the blue and may spark an incident that presents as urgent and at minimum is a call to action. For many this set of quincunx aspects can create jobs. The personal planets are involved with Saturn on each account drawing you into an event or you could be called to work side by side with your partner. You may be drawn into an issue that requires a considerable amount of compromise. You may be rearranging and managing your surroundings with others. If you are pressed to make decisions based on less information try to reserve final judgments for a time when new facts emerge.


The void of course Moon periods this week are:
Saturday from 5:04 PM until 10:32 PM when the Moon enters Aquarius . Very good Moon sign. Moon sextile Jupiter in Aries.
Tuesday at 3:40 AM until Moon enters Pisces at 8:23 AM. Excellent Mon sign Moon split parallel retrograde Saturn in Libra.
Thursday v/c Moon at 5:16 AM until the Moon enters Aries at 8:36 PM - another good Moon sign that ends with the Moon conjunct Jupiter at 6:27 AM.

THIS WEEK'S MOON PHASE: Last Quarter Moon at 3° Pisces 16’ on Tuesday May 24, 2011 at2:52 PM.

Below you can find four related Moon phases that form a group called a "Moon Family." A Moon Family is special because each of the four related Moon phases shares a lineage with this weeks' Last Quarter Moon in Pisces. This Moon Family began at a New Moon 27 months ago. Notice all four Moon phases occur near the same zodiacal degree and are separated by a nine-month interval. A Moon family is a remarkable timing tool that links the dates of your story-lines in a pattern that develops over a two-and-a-quarter-year period and is often renewed after three years with a New Moon near the same degree as this Moon Family. I have named the nine month interval the "Lunar Gestation Cycle" and when grouped form a Moon Family. See if your current situation connects to the Moon Family found within two weeks of the following dates:

The following four lunar phases belong to the Moon Family for the
May 24, 2011 Last Quarter Moon at 03° Pisces 16'.

Moon Family
New Moon - Feb 24, 2009 at 6° Pisces 35’
First Quarter – November 24, 2009 at 2° Pisces 45’
Full Moon - August 24, 2010 at 1° Pisces 26’
Last Quarter- May 24, 2011 at 3° Pisces 16’

You can use the dates in this Moon Family to reflect or project into the future when you focus on your current situation. Once you realize your story is part of the "bigger picture" you may relate to each phase in the Moon Family as it carries your storyline along a path of a logical evolution. Expect related topics, either personal or public to resurface on the dates shown in the future. By following the symbolism of the four Moon phases which represent the various stages or your story, you develop greater insights to the timing and meaning of the events in your life. As the phases form at nine month intervals, watch your storyline emerge as a new event or new beginning at the New Moon stage.

Nine months later there is a progressive and enthusiastic growth stage when the First Quarter Moon appears (notes its near the same degree of the New Moon). At this stage you may know what your want to do but are just getting started. You need to make choices and selections or apply for permits, licenses or perhaps travel tickets or the next stage in a relationship.

Watch your story completely bloom and come to completion or some other Full Moon platform such as deadlines, full disclosure, case presentations, weddings and the like.

In another nine months you may reap the rewards for your efforts as this stage brings matters to a close by the time that this Moon Family's Last Quarter Moon occurs. This is the pay-up or get-paid Moon phase. At this time you will collect the productive pieces of this two and a quarter years to seed the future. It can be a period when you are motivated to clear out or let go of things that are no longer useful. However people things may return to you during the last quarter phase you once thought to be finished. You may return to places where you had once traveled or visit with people from those places. People may return to you during this phase. It may become clear that very little is gone forever, even if it's a memory that keeps it alive.

Daily Transits:

Saturday May 21, 2011. The big news for Saturday began at 5:10 AM when the Sun entered Gemini for a busy month-long trek through the sign bringing us two eclipses; first a solar eclipse on June 1st and a lunar eclipse on June 15th. Venus loves her sign of Taurus with beautiful flowers, comfort and hopefully some money will follow while in a harmonious 120º trine with Pluto in Capricorn at 2:03 PM today. The Capricorn Moon may be helpful especially with the money cause while in the same sign as Pluto.
TRANSITING VENUS TRINE TRANSITING PLUTO
Exact May 21 2011
Brief description: A money aspect that could be speculative or result from a favor. This aspect creates a ravenous appetite for food, and sensual delights. Sensually or sexually indulgent.

At 5:04 PM the Capricorn Moon is void of course until 10:32 PM when the Moon enters Aquarius through Tuesday morning. The Aquarius Moon is a good Moon sign for advancing your goals with only a couple of pitfalls. The Best Day for the Aquarius Moon is Monday after sunrise.

Sunday May 22, 2001. The Aquarius Mon invites a friend along. The Sun will square Neptune at 3:31 AM which may have caused important information to be hidden from view. You could be lured into a potentially risky situation where you feel you have been hoodwinked.
TRANSITING SUN SQUARE TRANSITING NEPTUNE
Brief description: This is the square before Neptune turns retrograde on May 200. Confusion, romance, illusions and misconceptions are typical with this aspect. This day can be troublesome when under the influence of alcohol and drugs. Use caution as judgments are poor or blinded. Clouds and wet weather are common with this aspect.
For personal use: Beware of someone not with the best intentions attempting to sweep you off your feet. The likelihood that someone's feelings are at stake is high. People could be over sensitive to the insensitive comments made by others. There is a lack of objectivity. Over indulgence with anything could lead to very bad judgment.

Monday May 23, 2011 - Mercury and Saturn are 150° apart at 2:30 AM which may end a worry cycle after that time.

There may be signs of love and romantic activity with strong healthy drives and passions. Physical attraction to opposites. Driven toward pleasure and desire for acquisition. Money matters are active with the ability to earn. Creative ventures. To decorate or enhance appearances.
For personal use: Settle with the past and leave the slate clean for new loves and creative possibilities to come your way.
For business use: This could be money day.

Tuesday May 24, 2011. The Aquarius Moon begins a void of course Moon period at 3:40 AM and ends as the Moon enters Pisces at 8:23 AM. First, Mercury and Venus join in a parallel to bring the right people together for a long term agreement. At 2: 46 PM Transiting Mercury Quincunx Transiting Saturn
Brief description: Brief description: Wrong thinking. Annoying mental noise. Appointments are dropped. Lack of consideration for workers. Workers disappoint. Unexpected medical results not related to your present condition. Upsetting messages that seem to come out of the blue. A fly in the ointment. There is a need to assist someone ailing.
Be ready to take on a mental challenge today.
For business, allow extra time for unexpected clean up. Hold your judgment until after the hitch at 2:46 PM when cold feet attempt to stomp out the heat but something clicks with a Last Quarter Moon in Pisces at 2:52 PM. This quarter has plenty of history beginning with a New Moon that occurred at this degree 2.25 years ago on Feb 24, 2009. A 1st quarter Moon set the goals of that New Moon into action on Nov 24, 2009. All the related cards were on the table when a full Moon occurred on August 24, 2010. Now is time to reap the rewards of your efforts with Tuesday's Last Quarter Moon at 3º Pisces 15'. If you are lucky, the check is in the mail. Or you may finally be able to pay off a bill that has been mounting since that time.

Wednesday May 25, 2011. The Sun is excited about some new way of doing things when it encounters the brilliance of Uranus at 2:47 AM. If you awake with an idea you may want to jump out of bed to take note.
TRANSITING SUN SEXTILE TRANSITING URANUS
Brief description: The release of new medications. Inventions and scientific strides. Legislatures approve controversial scientific studies. Radical thinking and rebelliousness. Enlightenment. Awakening. High energy output to change stagnant and outworn conditions. Electrical and strong currents. Plastic surgery.
For personal use: Meet with a group of like-minded people to promote progress in the areas of your interest.
For business use: Consider a face lift for your business.
The Pisces Moon is intuitive and you could find yourself doing something you never planned on. The snag for Wednesday is that Mars and retrograde Saturn are a messy 150º apart at 11:48 AM. The good part about this aspect is that it is driven to put us to work. For some it could mean a workers strike or pressure to extract and older employee from their position. Mars is not in a good place to be making such demands as Saturn even though retrograde has a solid history and is in good standing while in Libra (Saturn in Libra through October 2012).

TRANSITING MARS QUINCUNX TRANSITING SATURN
Brief description: A stop sign aspect. Observe waning signals. Sheer frustration. A major clean up aspect. A need for adjustment. This is an urgent call involving hard work and clear organization skills. A condition or event that connects; two unrelated people, tasks or activities for a common goal. A health aspect involving bones, muscles, skeletal structure and sometimes heart trouble. There may be a need for surgery. Delays and blocks with work projects. A executive effort to control force and power. The police stop speeding drivers. Consequences when there is a strong resistance to change.
For personal use: Stretch before physical activity and pace yourself. Family relationships can be stressed.

Thursday May 26, 2011. The Pisces Moon could use a little help but there is a band-aid that brings a temporary fix to difficulties. At 10:33 AM Mercury and Mars put their heads together for a better plan during the void of course Moon period. Transiting Mercury Parallel Transiting Mars
Brief description: To align with those who can cut through the "red tape". Very fast feet. Arguments. Versatility dealing with irritations and complaints. Rashes. Acute sense of smell. Expressions of pointed and heated thoughts. To rip off another of their ideas or possessions. Arrows shooting through the air. A sharp tone when speaking. Hot dry winds.
News of riots and military actions. Propaganda. To twist the truth and deliver a punch.
For personal use: Slow down speech and lower the tone, so your message is heard.
For business use: Send your eyes and ears everywhere to gather the latest information.
After 8:36 PM the Moon enters Aries to strike a match to a new idea. The results may be good but there are tough guys to deal with in order to get what you need.

Friday May 27, 2011. Friday is active with the Aries Moon that will present an opportunity before 8:30 when the Moon is 60° to the Sun. You may scramble to figure a way around an important problem that has a low point at 6:10 PM when the Moon opposes Saturn. The evening is more optimistic and lively. At 7:16 PM a brilliant pair, Mercury and Uranus in a semi-square speak out of turn about a need to flee from the thick situation.

TRANSITING MERCURY SEMI-SQUARE TRANSITING URANUS
Brief description: Can give the effects of a Mercury retrograde period. Thinking is brilliant and erratic. Thoughts or information is interjected and abruptly presented and can come from a radical viewpoint. Individual views are challenged. This can be a period of information of unexplained irritations and disjointed thinking. Statements made can be critical and without regard for feeling. Erratic transportation and mishaps are likely while traveling. Technology for communication can be interrupted.
For personal use: Get all the facts straight and think before you speak.
For business use: Too quirky to print the final product.

Matters tend to end well but you must go against the grain of Aries and apply your patience. Address your demons (marked by the Sun 150º Pluto Saturday May 28, 2011) and they will calm down.

For the week of Sat May 7 - Friday May 13, 2011

The Weekly Astrology Report begins with the transcribed version from the 90.3 FM Newton, MA Radio Report followed by the interpretations of the individual aspects and this week’s First Quarter Moon Family report.

Sat Apr 30 2011 – Fri May 5 2011 - audio report transcribed.

Certainly there was a lot of news within this past week. As usual the nodes of the Moon were involved directly. You’ve often heard me speak of the nodes of the Moon which are imaginary points which are actually intersection points of two great circles where the Moon’s orbit crosses the ecliptic which is the apparent path of the Sun against the background of the stars. These points, north node of the Moon and south node of the Moon are extremely potent points and are the points where the solar and lunar eclipses will occur when a New or Full Moon occurs close to these points. Currently the north node is in the sign of Sagittarius and the south node is in the sign of Gemini. When the nodes reach a zodiacal degree of a solar or lunar eclipse major events follow. Looking back to the tragic earthquake and tsunami in Japan which occurred on March 11th, the node of the Moon had reached the point where a lunar eclipse had occurred earlier December of 2010. The delayed reaction makes sense as the node brings a widening effect which draws all eyes and ears to such monumental events with its powerful magnetic pull to this astro-memory which enlivens and revives some of the most dramatic events in history.

The heavens had a similar set last weekend April 29-May 2. The nodes of the Moon also at an eclipse degree but this time the eclipse is one in the future and it is at 24° Sagittarius and it is headed right for the events of the Royal wedding, elevating Pope John Paul to sainthood, and the demise of Osama bin Laden. This powerful time is explained by the very important transit of the nodes of the Moon.

I find it interesting that the Royal family is connected to events important to the Vatican. When Princess Diana died in August 1997, Mother Teresa died a week later. And when Charles and Camilla married, their wedding was bumped a day because Charles needed to attend the Pope’s funeral in April 2005. Prince William and Katherine married amidst the Pope John Paul path to Sainthood.

Moving on, there is one sign change that will occur this week which is on Wednesday when Mars enters Taurus until June 20, 2011. A stunning conjunction of Mercury and Venus occurs on Monday which is not all that common this year. This one is particularly unique because there will be two Mercury Venus conjunctions within a seven day period. The first event of this type occurs on the 9th and the second on the following Monday on the 16th. The final Mercury and Venus conjunction in 2011 will occur on August 16. I find that the Venus and Mercury conjunction is accompanied by very important statements. When I look for this conjunction prior to a person’s birth I interpret this as the point that defines one’s inner voice. So it makes a major statement and in some way. It may define the current economical state and political events. There are always plenty of that type of thing going on. Important gatherings for a particular statement might be part of the story. And for yourself you may find that you develop a voice for something important to you or take an important step forward. You may become clear about what it is you would like to do.

The first conjunction will occur in the sign of Aries, so it is something you want to get on with and direct. The second one will be in the sign of Taurus so it is more about money and perhaps you will find increases in that area, adding your own traditions and developing your talents.

There are green light things this week. Saturday May 7, is one of them. That means go for it. Move forward. Sunday May 8th another one and on May 9th , Monday that is good only until 4:34 am. After that there are few green light periods. Not until a very small little window on May 11th at 3:03 AM until 5:43 AM for a green light. So if you have something that you absolutely must get out in the middle of the week. You are going to have to get up early in the morning and take care of that between at 3:03 AM and 4:34 AM Wednesday morning. Otherwise, just pack it all in this weekend right up to 4:34 am Monday morning. It is golden because the Sun and the Moon are parallel at the end of that story, which brings about very positive results for your efforts.

A void of course Moon period which begins at 4:34 AM until 5: 43 AM Monday when the Moon enters Leo on Monday- that‘s the void of course Moon period. After that the Leo Moon is complicated by the fact that Mars is at the final degree as it approach the next sign. When a planet is at the end of one sign it tends to dominate the news in both personal and public areas. Mars may increase battles and create complications and mechanical problems, and vehicles. You may want to buy a new vehicle or may be forced to for some other reason. You may find work during this period.

The Virgo Moon beginning 9:58 AM on Wednesday appears to be expensive for financial and social reasons. Some may find a stroke of luck due to a triple conjunction of Venus, Mercury and Jupiter all at the end of the sign of Aries. Therefore they are aggressive, active and impatient. The Moon’s final aspect involves at 150° quincunx to the trio. Which means there will be a major problem or major opportunity that falls in your lap. It may involve a job or significant adjustment in regard to a social setting. We will watch how that works out. And the Virgo Moon ends when the Moon enters Libra at 11:56 AM on Friday through 12:31 PM on Sunday May 15th.
There is a void of course Moon period at 7:02 AM on Friday morning ending at 11:56 am when the Libra Moon begins. None of these days are particularly good for moving forward. The next really good day for moving forward is not until May 21st.

There is have a first quarter Moon on Monday. That is an action day. It is at 19 degrees of Leo. It is a piece to a story that began nine months ago. Take a look back to see what started around August 10, 2010. It could be related to a project or relationship. Now is when the fire under the pot is turned up and you are able to get things going. First quarter Moon days are high action days.

The events on Wednesday occur at 3:04 AM when Mars enters Taurus and that will change our goal setting towards acquisitions. We desire more we want to accumulate more although our actions are more methodical and plotting. There is a very lucky Venus and Jupiter conjunction at 10:42 am on Wednesday the 11th. And then Mercury is conjunct Jupiter at 3:57 pm on Wednesday 11th as well. This makes for excellent social connections and also a lot of things having to do with partnerships, thoughts of marriage and thoughts of traditional types of things as well.

On Thursday May 12, Mars and Neptune are in a sextile. This sets up an opportunity between described by these two planets where things can go very wrong or misguided. When Mars and Neptune are together their efforts become missions which are stepped up and their goals may not be above board. This combination tends to be a little “drunk” so to speak. There is also a goal for taking things to a spiritual level so out of mind out of body into an altered state might be a nice thing to practice yoga, meditation, that sort of thing. But Mars wants to move around. So maybe dancing, music, all of the like sides of that aspect would be fun.

On Friday there are no major aspects and that is pretty much the story for the week. We do have quite a bit of Venus and Jupiter energy this week. So I would say plan ahead for some lucky events and fun social gatherings. It should be a lot of fun. People will be meeting. Introductions are famous during a week of the Mercury and Venus conjunction. If you want to meet someone that could be important in your life take advantage of the Mercury Venus conjunction on Monday and perhaps even for Sunday night and also for Tuesday.
You have often heard me speak of the nodes of the Moon. The lunar nodes carry their mission when they reach an eclipse degree. Currently the nodes are traveling in their natural retrograde motion back though Sagittarius. So recently was the horrific Japan earthquake and tsunami March 11, 2011 when the lunar nodes revived the astro-memory of Dec 2010 lunar eclipse that occurred at the degree of the global axis 29°Gemini. The lunar nodes were then headed for the next major astro-event at 24° Sagittarius. This is the point where a June 15, 2011 lunar eclipse is to appear. There were three major events involving prominent figures and while still natural disasters reshape the earth’s terrain. The three events that clustered in one weekend was the Royal Wedding of William and Kate, the elevation of Pope Paul to sainthood, and the death of Osama bin Laden. It is interesting to note that the British Royals have been linked with prominent Catholic leaders in the past when Mother Teresa died within the same week of Princess Diana and Pope John Paul’s funeral changed the date Charles and Camilla wedding day April 8, 2005 to the following day so that Prince Charles could attend the Pope’ Funeral.


A very interesting conjunction of Mercury and Venus are to appear twice in a week; first on Monday May 9 then Monday May 16th. The last time this pair joined for a repeat appearance was in August 1991 when both were retrograde. At this time they are both traveling in direct motion.

My research indicates this unassuming pair is present for some major personal events also there may be economic and political events such as important gatherings which join for a particular statement. For yourself you may find you develop you voice in regard to an important matter.



The Green Light Days this week are:

Saturday May 7, 2011
Sunday May 8,
Monday May 9 until 4:34 AM )Moon parallel Sun)
Void Moon period from 4:34 AM until 5:35 AM Monday when the Moon enters Leo. The Leo Moon period is complicated by Mars at the final degree calling the shots and many are literally. There may be increased battles and complications due to mechanics and technical issues. Vehicles could be a problem. However you may be considering the purchase of a new car.
There is a green light briefly on Wednesday morning May 11 from 3:03 AM until 5:43 AM. At this time begins the void Moon period ending at 9:58 AM the void Moon period ends when the Moon enters Virgo until Friday. The last thing the Virgo Moon encounters is a pile up of Jupiter, Mercury and Venus at the end of Aries. There fore there is a big faux pas of some sort to clean up with the 150° angle from Virgo to this trio.


Matters for the Virgo Moon are highly expensive with both money and socially.
Not until May 21, 2001 is there a good day to push ahead with your goals.


THIS WEEK'S MOON PHASE: First Quarter Moon at 19° Leo 51’ on Tuesday May 10, 2011 at 4:33 PM.

Below you can find four related Moon phases that form a group called a "Moon Family." A Moon Family is special because each of the four related Moon phases shares a lineage with this weeks' First Quarter Moon. This Moon Family began at a New Moon nine months ago. Notice all four Moon phases occur near the same zodiacal degree and are separated by a nine-month interval. A Moon family is a remarkable timing tool that links the dates of your story-lines in a pattern that develops over a two-and-a-quarter-year period and is often renewed after three years with a New Moon near the same degree as this Moon Family. I have named the nine month interval the "Lunar Gestation Cycle" and when grouped form a Moon Family. See if your current situation connects to the Moon Family found within two weeks of the following dates:


The following four lunar phases belong to the Moon Family for the
May 10, 2011 First Quarter Moon at 19° Leo 51’.

New Moon - August 9, 2010 at 17° Leo 24’
First Quarter - May 10, 2011 at 19° Leo 51
Full Moon - February 7 2012 at 18° Leo 31
Last Quarter- November 6, 2012 at 15° Leo 00


You can use the dates in this Moon Family to reflect or project into the future when you focus on your current situation. Once you realize your story is part of the "bigger picture" you may relate to each phase in the Moon Family as it carries your storyline along a path of a logical evolution. Expect related topics, either personal or public to resurface on the dates shown in the future. By following the symbolism of the four Moon phases which represent the various stages or your story, you develop greater insights to the timing and meaning of the events in your life. As the phases form at nine month intervals, watch your storyline emerge as a new event or new beginning at the New Moon stage.

Nine months later there is a progressive and enthusiastic growth stage when the First Quarter Moon appears (notes its near the same degree of the New Moon). At this stage you may know what your want to do but are just getting started. You need to make choices and selections or apply for permits, licenses or perhaps travel tickets or the next stage in a relationship.

Watch your story completely bloom and come to completion or some other Full Moon platform such as deadlines, full disclosure, case presentations, weddings and the like.

In another nine months you may reap the rewards for your efforts as this stage brings matters to a close by the time that this Moon Family's Last Quarter Moon occurs. This is the pay-up or get-paid Moon phase. At this time you will collect the productive pieces of this two and a quarter years to seed the future. It can be a period when you are motivated to clear out or let go of things that are no longer useful. However people things may return to you during the last quarter phase you once thought to be finished. You may return to places where you had once traveled or visit with people from those places. People may return to you during this phase. It may become clear that very little is gone forever, even if it's a memory that keeps it alive.

For the week of April 30 through Monday May 9, 2011

Weekly Astrology Report
Sat Apr 30 2011 – Fri May 5 2011 - audio report
It was a wonderful lovely royal wedding. It was at 11:20 am when they actually exchanged their vows. It was a pretty cool start to that wedding that we will go over that later at another time, probably in my class.
For today we have an Aries moon. And that Aries moon is headed for a couple of things that are going on. There is an aspect between mars and Jupiter that is just absolutely brilliant and wonderful. So we’ll talk about that in a second.
We have some green light days. Beginning today Sunday right through 12:23 am. That means go ahead and do it. What ever it is you have your heart set on and you want to push forward. You can send a lot of emails over the weekend to set things in gear. So push forward from now right up to 12:23 am. And it was also good early this morning. Then again there is another green light period Wednesday 1:09 pm until 4:12 pm on Friday. There are a couple of VOC moon periods one that is going to be very long.
And the VOC moon periods are from 12:23 am on Monday until 1:58 am Monday when the moon goes into Taurus. And then there is a longer one and that is going to be VOC on Tuesday 2:50 am until 1:09 pm on Wednesday.
The VOC moon periods mean your judgment is off. Things don’t go through the way you expect or unusual or bizarre things could happen and you could potentially push that theory with the Taurus moon because the moon is exalted in the sign of Taurus. And there are seven stars at the end of Taurus, which cancel out any VOC moon period. So use at your own risk. Test it out. Let me know how that works out.
Recheck times before this paragraph.
We are also coming into a dark moon phase. And that begins on Sunday May 1st at 1:06 pm until Wednesday 3:55 pm. That means there is a new moon coming and we are in the dark of the moon. So the things that you are trying to develop or trying to forward or trying to advance in any way shape or form you don’t have all the information. You are missing facts. This is a Taurus new moon. This has to do with money in particular. This has to do with building, laying down a monetary foundation. And there are some things that are difficult about it. The sun and the moon in aspect to Saturn. So there is a lot of work to be done. There are few gains and a lot of hard work in regard to the seed that is planted with this new moon. But that doesn’t happen until Tuesday.
And for right now we’ve got a balancing act between two really excellent aspects and one nasty aspect. The really good ones are mars and Jupiter came into a parallel and then they continue on into a conjunction that is exact on Sunday. And in between that is a Venus and Saturn opposition and this aspect has a lot to do with damage to property or love is just a lot of hard work or there may be feelings of separation from loved ones. There is an insensitivity sometimes .difficulty getting through your emotional needs and also financial needs. So you could keep a real close watch on your wallet, you luggage keep them close to you. and avoid applying for any loans until that aspect is over. But there is going to be this sort of cancellation in a sense of negative of that aspect when we have the mars Jupiter, it is a very favorable lucky aspect and it moves things forward in a big way. So it is optimistic. It also connects to a benefactor. The abundance is met with competence. That you are going to do great. There is courage, there is energy, and there is drive. It is a sign of a full charge batteries. Lots of activity that could lead to positive reaction. But it could also be legal action if people are over enthusiastic. About something might makes right mentality. This could be quarrelsome and prone to errors. I think what you might find is a step up in military action because mars and Jupiter combinations very often go that way.
And then what we have for may 1st also mercury is center square to Neptune. That aspect is on Sunday and it has to do with a confusing state of mind. And there is some sort of distortion of the truth. There is difficulty diagnosing a problem. And there could be hidden facts or lost information.
The other thing about it is bad weather. Clouds and things to ruin your day. Look out for insider leaks. You may get a piece of information that you were not meant to get. Transiting moon enters the sign of Taurus on May 2nd 1:57 and that is when our focus then turns to matters of traditions any thing having to do with gatherings. Food first. bonding is important with a Taurus moon and also use your art of persuasion in all of your affairs because people are more set and rigid in their notions. So you need to be persuasive, you need to be kind. You need to do use things like you go out to lunch or what ever to get your point across. And Take time. So don’t push.
Then we have Venus and mercury in an aspect. This is a wonderful beautiful aspect aligns with the intelligent and the generous and soft side of people for the purpose of a positive message. It is also a good aspect for visiting with friends and family members. It is about love and signs of expressions of beauty that are also in your awareness and there are some sensitivities and reactions to foods that you might experience.
Then we have the sun and Saturn now this is an aspect in the chart of the new moon. You may feel confronted by a brick wall. It is a 150 degree aspect. I call it life’s messy clean it up. So it is the seed that is planted. This new moon is going to make this aspect. Where you will need to drop something that you are doing and make an adjustment. Clean up something that has been set off in the wrong direction. It could have to do with a boss or a parent. Someone else that is in charge that need that you to manage their agenda in another way. Perhaps mend people’s feelings with a Taurus moon. Take a lot of care when laying foundations. Look for where there might be weak spots don’t just move forward and gloss over. Take your time. Family members are brought into matters. It is shortages. It is a difficult aspect.
Also Venus will make an aspect to Neptune. This one is very romantic it is on May 3rd. it has to do with imagination and color. You can’t find the things. Articles are lost, money vanishes, relationship issues cluster, there are illusions, unusual foods could produce strange effects. At any rate you want to be careful of that one.
Then we have the moon changing signs entering Gemini on Wednesday and that will be at 1:09 pm. And then our mind switches over to something where you are tending to details you are trying to turn your information to something productive. So there is a lot of facts a lot of things a lot of errands around town. And then we have the last aspect of that Gemini moon sextile mars so that is an excellent moon sign from Wednesday right through until 4:12 pm Friday to move forward. You are likely to make those connections that you are looking for.
We have the cancer moon on May 6th. There are no major aspects. The Cancer moon begins at 10:32 pm Friday runs right through until May 9th Monday which is another excellent Green Light period, so GO FOR IT! You can probably expect to be involved with family members and things that are close to home you may not feel like sharing things with others. That is pretty much it for the week.
