Welcome to a new phase in humanity! The rebel Uranus will enter the sign of stable Taurus on March 6, 2019 and won’t leave until April 27, 2026. Since his orbit is 84 years, Uranus remains in a sign for about seven or eight years. Because Uranus is one of the slow-moving planets, this will reboot society. Hey, if it’s changing the world, it will definitely be stirring up each of our personal lives too. Uranus dipped into Taurus for a bit while I was in Barcelona for last summer. Since then, he d…

We have the New Year of 2019 upon us and this is a good time to take an astrological peak at what’s coming up for us all. The main astrological trend now is an important grouping of planets in Capricorn that will be there into 2020. At the peak of this Capricorn era, there will be five planets in that sign. That’s fully half of the Solar System in one place. No, that doesn’t happen often, but it does occur. So why is this one so important? It is made up of the slowest planets and therefore is ra…

The infamous Venus Retrograde in Scorpio has just ended and it seems she found her voice. In my last article, called “Venus Retrograde Gone Wild”, there was a line explaining that this alignment was like “A scorned woman seeking revenge”. When I wrote that line, it just jumped out of me without thinking about it. At the time it seems pretty extreme, but I can see now that it was precisely accurate. The world has change since that recent Venus Retrograde and I don’t think it will ever be the same…

When you move or travel somewhere other than your birth place, your Astro Map changes too. Ok, that’s my nickname for Astro*Carto*Graphy, which is quite a mouthful. The more I get to know my chart as it relates to travel, the more amazed I am. This last year was my biggest year of travel in a long time. I went to India to receive my award in New Delhi. Then I spent the summer in Barcelona, Spain. Being in two new places gave me a good chance to see how different I felt in each location. First I …

Barcelona was my home for the summer and I knew the long trip would be life changing. The rebel planet, Uranus, is playing with my chart a lot now, which always creates something new. It can be a new home, a new style and a new haircut. But it also goes much deeper to bring a new awareness of who we are inside and how we connect with the world. I was expecting a new lifestyle, new friends and new clothes, but I wasn’t expecting a new relationship with the sky. As many people know, I have a big b…

Hola amigos, como estan? Si, estoy en Barcelona! Yes, I’m speaking Spanish 24/7 now that I’m living in Barcelona for the summer. Since the Sun is entering the sign of Cancer now, I thought it would be perfect to talk about my new home here. Not only is the Sun entering the sign of Cancer on June 21st, but the rebel, Uranus, has just entered the stable sign of Taurus. Since Uranus is such a slow-moving planet with an 84-year orbit, that’s a rare phase and will be with us until 2026. In fact, it…

During the last week in May, thousands of astrologers will be gathering at the Downtown Marriot in Chicago for an important astrological conference. UAC 2018, or United Astrology Conference, will be attracting astrologers from over 50 countries. There will be 170 speakers, chosen from the top astrologers in the world, to give over 300 lectures on their specialties. The very first UAC was in San Diego in 1986 and is one of the favorite conferences amongst professional astrologers. Here is the lin…

The world is in for a change! The slow-moving planet Uranus is getting ready to enter the earth sign of Taurus, which is a fairly rare event. Uranus will enter Taurus on May 16, 2018 and will remain there until April 27, 2026. So humanity is starting a new phase and it will be felt by us all. Not only does Uranus connect with us universally, it also triggers off personal change, as seen by where it is transiting through your birth chart. This planet of change and surprises is moving into my 4th …

The Chinese New Year starts at a different date each year. The beginning is at sunset on the second New Moon after the Winter Solstice. All this is based on when it happens in China. Like Western Astrology, the Chinese Zodiac has 12 signs, or animals. This year the animal is the stable Earth Dog. This year will be quite a contrast to the volatile Fire Rooster of 2017 that is just ending. For a reminder about the out-of-control Rooster, here is an abbreviated excerpt from my last year’s Preview f…
