Today the New Moon is in Pisces (sidereal zodiac) a water sign, ruled by the planet Jupiter (faith, expansion and mysticism). The symbol for Pisces is two fish – mouth to tail meant to represent yin and yang and one end leading to another. Pisces is technically the last sign in the wheel of the sidereal zodiac — the first sign is Aries, second is Taurus and so on. In this water sign of Pisces, this is where all efforts seem to melt away and we tend to join into universal,

On this very auspicious day, Maha Shivrati (Great Night of Shiva), the celestial bodies are in perfect alignment for meditating on Shiva and his energy. This is the night that Shiva performs his Tandava (heavenly dance) destroying Kaliya (venomous snake) in doing so destroys darkness and ignorance. This dark night of the year marks when we can most overcome our own personal darkness (the Moon/Mind) to receive Shiva’s grace. Vedic astrology counts the Moon’s daily waxing and

This #fullmoon in #aries is where we are notice our feelings may be a bit bigger and a little more tender. The Full Moon is our feeling capabilities (or lack thereof depending) and the transit over Aries will give us the immediate, immature response of "what about me? and what about my feelings". If you are tracking your 'feelings' and are on a path of development you can put your immediate wants to the side and delve into helping others and expanding your capacity for joy.

According to the sideral zodiac, today’s New Moon in Virgo just moved into the star constellation called Uttara Phalguni whose symbol is the back 2 legs of a bed. This transit brings our ability to come out of the Leo placement where we were feeling like royalty, perhaps entitled and even a little ‘grand’ to a more subdued, sweet, friendly placement. This symbol of the back two legs of a bed is like a day bed, or a couch where contemplation and strategy can shift from ruling

This is an extremely dynamic time, transformative and transformative for many. It's something we will all be impacted by and how so and how much depends on our level of awareness, spiritual development and willingness. This transition will last for the next year and a half and will give us opportunity to grow in a big way. #rahu #ketu #horoscope #zodiac #astrology #vedicastrology #108 #loveeveryone

On June 5th, 2020 CST the Full Moon is eclipsed in Scorpio – ending the Taurus and Scorpio lunar cycle we began last month. Mother Earth has been healing while we have been under safer-at-home orders, we sentient beings are confused, in various states of discontent and mostly trying to do our best to get to the next ‘step’. All sorts of expressions are being displayed. My sincere hope is that we can each do our part – being the drop of water in the sea to collectively create

On May 7th at 5:45AM CDT in the sidereal zodiac the Moon is full in the sign of Libra, specifically in the Nakshatra (star map) of Vishakha. One symbol for Vishakha is a decorated gateway which indicates triumph, or a goal achieved. The Nakshatra before it is Swati, where the triumph actually occurs - think of a runner crossing the finish line and the ribbon is a symbol of Vishakha. This transit of the Full Moon in Vishakha can carry with it a sense of longing or a feeling

On April 22, 2020 at 9:25 CST we enter the new Moon cycle is Aries within the Nakshatra of Ashwini. The new Moon signifies the beginning of the next lunar cycle and marks the beginning placement for our intentions to seed, cultivate, root and produce. One of Ashwini’s symbols is a horse’s head which is powerful, sensitive and relates to mental alertness. Ashwini is placed at the beginning of the Zodiac in Aries (Pisces, our desire for liberation and endings, was the sign bef

(Artist: Insta: @rachday_ Facebook: Rachael Day) This past week brought us the transit of 3 planets in Capricorn: Jupiter (where it is debilitated), Mars (where is does its best) and Saturn which rules Capricorn. Jupiter expresses here as feeling lack of faith or hopelessness and in opposition Mars brings us the ability to be disciplined and gives us strength. Saturn brings us lessons, and the feeling of responsibility. This current alignment allows us to the discipline to

These are crazy times. We hope to make it through to the other side with minimal damage. We are under immense pressure, intensity and quite a bit of uncertainty. Today Jupiter (higher teachings) has moved into Capricorn where it is debilitated which could lead us to feeling a bit hopeless and losing faith. But it is joined Mars where Mars (self-will, discipline) is exalted and does really well along with Saturn (in its own house ruler – creates stability). What does this

Mercury is Retrograde in Aquarius from February 17th through March 10th. Aquarius is where we look to causes and interests which are beyond our own personal interests. In Vedic Astrology when a planet goes retrograde it is considered to be stronger because the planet is closest to earth and the effects of the “backing up” of the planet are impactful and bring us deeper within, to review our internal landscape. When we are expressing our Aquarius nature it is where we conne
