Sun Trine Pluto: The Fire of Change is Here!

Free Weekly Tarot and Astrology Reading May 7-13, 2017

This week hosts a full moon in Scorpio, Mercury still conjunct Uranus, and the nodal shift into Leo Aquarius.  In addition, 3 inner planets trine 3 outer planets with the outer planets being retrograde.  The Sun trine Pluto highlighting issues around power.  Mercury trine Saturn which can build foundations under some of the wild and genius insights coming through. Mars trine Jupiter helps us prioritize our efforts and might bring a few drops of good luck.

sun trine plutoSun Trine Pluto:

I think Sun trine Pluto is the key aspect for the week.  Although this aspect is somewhat regular, at this particular time, it is highlighting the smoldering power of Pluto supporting the manifesting power of the Sun in Taurus. With all the other aspects of the week great leaps forward are possible.

The cards for this aspect are: King of Swords, 6 of wands, page of pentacles.  Do you know what you are doing?  Are you an expert in your field?  The answer is a resounding yes! The more you can get behind this truth about yourself, the more opportunities brought by the 6 of wands and page of pentacles you will be able to embrace.

Full Moon in Scorpio

For the full moon I pulled : 8 of pentacles, 10 of cups, and the Judgement card. Fulfillment comes but not without hard work and practice.  Be sure to keep your integrity and don’t worry about what others think about you.

Mercury Conjunct Uranus

For this aspect the cards are: 3 of cups, 6 of cups, and 5 of swords.  Don’t let sudden interruptions by others spoil your fun with other people.  On the other hand, such a disruption could be a strong message that the people you are associating with are not worth your time.

Mercury Trine Saturn

For this aspect I pulled: 7 of swords, Temperance, and Ace of pentacles.  Change is here now!  Support for your creativity is here if you will only accept it.  Don’t be suspicious.  Say yes.

Mars Trine Jupiter

The Tarot cards for this aspect are: 5 of wands, the Empress, and Ace of Swords.  Change is not everything staying the same. This may seem obvious, but for you to accept the growth that is here for you now, you have to change your mind about what you see.

 

 

 

 

North Node in Leo Forecast for All Signs

Astro Tarot Forecast for the Week of April 30 – May 6, 2017

Mercury turns direct on May 3 and Venus is leaving the square with Saturn as she moves through Aries.  Things may calm down a bit??? I’m not so sure, but the stuck energy should start to lift.  The nodes move into Leo/Aquarius for the next 18 months bringing Leo expressiveness to the forefront and encouraging us all to be big, loud and proud and most of all be ourselves.

Mercury Direct May 3

Mercury turns direct but will still be conjunct Uranus for the next couple of weeks.  So surprising news, outbursts and reveals are still par for the course.  Keep open for ingenious and out of the blue ideas and insights coming through not the usual channels.

North Node in Leo, South Node in Aquarius

north node in Leo
This Alice in Wonderland Theme is freakin’ me out! She’s eating the cupcake which makes you bigger ie the north node.

The North Node moves into Leo late April or early May (depending on whether you use mean or true node) and will stay through late October of 2018.  It’s time to follow your heart and let your true self shine.  Self expression and loving life is top priority.

Look for your rising sign below to see how this nodal shift might affect you.

North Node in Leo for Leo and Aquarius

The polarity for you folks is between the 1st and 7th houses.

For Leo it’s time to let your light shine, do your own thing, be the king and be the leader.  Relationships that aren’t working may have to go.  Your Tarot card pull is Temperance, asking you to combine the materials you have before you in new and creative ways.

For Aquarius, relationships, partnerships and working with others takes center stage. Demanding things be your way is not the way to work the nodal energy.  Your Tarot card pull is the 8 of pentacles.  Practice your skills and improve your work with others.  You might even sign up for lessons of some sort.

North Node in Leo for Virgo and Pisces

For Virgo it’s time for you to retreat from center stage and to explore your lost self.  What childhood interests and hobbies can you explore at this time?  You might even take a retreat to a foreign place or spiritual center. Your Tarot card pull is Knight of Swords.  Time to explore and see what you can see.

For Pisces now is the time to work with your health, work, sleep and daily routines.  Put yourself first and do what feeds your fire and recharges your batteries.  Your Tarot card pull is the 9 of swords.  What needs to be cleaned up, cleared out and put in order is your thought patterns and processes.  Find out where the bug in the code is and clean it up.

North Node in Leo for Libra and Aries

For Libra it’s time for you to get with your people, build your network and take a leadership role in organizations. Unusual opportunities may come through your connections with other people of like mind. With the Ace of Wands as your Tarot Card pull, it’s important for you to initiate whatever inspires you.

For Aries it’s time to take some risks creative and otherwise.  Your Tarot card pull is the Moon.  If your efforts seem to produce inconsistent results, just go with the flow.  The moon has phases and cycles, and nothing is truly wasted effort.

North Node in Leo for Scorpio and Taurus

For Scorpio, the north node will be in your 10th house of career and reputation.  Perhaps you will have a boss who is a bit of a megalomaniac. Nevertheless, some unusual opportunities in terms of your career may be headed your way. Your Tarot card pull is the Hermit.  It’s important for you to gut check the opportunities that come your way.  If it feels like you are selling your soul to the devil, you probably are.

For Taurus, the north node will visit your 4th house of family, parents, home and the subconscious.  With the North Node here it’s important to have your foundation in order so the unusual gifts of the north node don’t upset the apple cart. Your Tarot card pull is the Hanged Man.  Let opportunities and inspiration come to you.  Chasing after something you want most likely will not be effective.

North Node in Leo for Sagittarius and Gemini

For Sag, the north node will be about the bigger picture for you.  What is your philosophy of life? What’s the big picture? How can you explore the horizons?  Your Tarot card pull is the World.  This is a prime opportunity to move past limitations and spin your life into a meaningful expression of yourself and who you truly are.

For Gemini the north node will be in your 3rd house of communications, neighborhood, siblings and daily travel and your skill set. Your Tarot card pull is the 3 of pentacles.  Working joyfully and creatively with others is the key to your success, perhaps in your neighborhood, or perhaps in an online community.

North Node in Leo for Capricorn and Cancer

For Capricorn the north node brings up the taboo subjects of death, taxes, debt, transformation, sex, and psychological issues.  Time to clean out the closets and transform your hang ups into something useful. Your Tarot card pull is the 2 of cups.  Let others love you and help you through this time of transformation.

For Cancer, the north node brings up what you value, your possessions, family assets and earned income. With the 3 of swords as your Tarot card pull, this is a great time to make lists of priorities, and delineate a plan of action which upholds these values.

This week starts off with a Full Moon in Libra and Mercury turning retrograde it Taurus. You should start seeing some rewards for your efforts but don’t let up on the gas.  Pay special attention to your thoughts and point of view as that is most likely what is holding you back.

Full Moon in Libra

full moon in libraWe have a full moon in Libra at 21 degrees. Hanging out with the Sun is Uranus at 24 degrees and hanging out with the moon we have Jupiter at 17/18 degrees.

The Sun and Uranus are calling for you to be the most you you can be and to move forward bravely and authentically. This is illustrated through the Strength card and The World card. We aren’t messing around here, you are creating your destiny!

The Moon and Jupiter are bringing forth signs of the harvest (7 of pentacles).  This week you may receive a small inkling or reward for all of your efforts. Keep adding stitches until you finish the piece.

Mercury Retrograde in Taurus

Mercury turns retrograde in Taurus on April 9th. This one snuck up on me!

Mercury retrograde or any retrograde is about reviewing the past as the Creative Whack Pack pull underlined.

The Strength Card came up again highlighting the need to love yourself warts and all, while the 8 of pentacles encourages you to continue to perfect your craft.

Finally the 5 of pentacles lets us know that past performance is not an indicator of future performance. In other words, past failures do not indicate future failure. Keep vigilant and don’t let your mind play tricks on you.

This week’s deck is the Wild Unknown Tarot.

Venus Square Saturn

Free Weekly Tarot and Astrology: Venus square Saturn April 2-8, 2017

This week is a continuing saga between Venus and Saturn.  Late in January of this year Venus and Saturn had a conversation that didn’t go to well.  The rest of this month (April) is round two.

VenusVenus

We talk about Venus as the Empress card in Tarot and relate the 3’s of each suit back to her.  The empress is about creativity and growth, and not necessarily organization and planning.  Think of your garden near the end of summer, after everything has grown wild for a couple of months or more.

Saturn

We talk about the Emperor card and The World and how they relate to Saturn.  Taking action and providing structure, long term goals and planning these are the realms of the Emperor.  The World is about knowing our limitations and how to work within them.

Saturn’s pack is too heavy so he’s got to empty it out and leave some items with friends while he runs back to check on something along the road of Why.

Venus Square Saturn

Venus complains to Saturn that everything is too hard and she wants to enjoy life a little. Saturn is in a hurry to leave and find something he lost along his pilgrimage to the Why of Life.  But he does tell Venus that she’s got to do it on her own.

venus retrograde
As we approach equal day and equal night and Venus turns retrograde, we are called to weigh in on relationships of all kinds.

Your Weekly Fortune Cookie for the First Week of March 2017

This shift is coming as Venus and Mars start to separate and we approach the equinox (day and night of equal length).  Time to weigh things out as we finish up the first quarter of the year.

Venus retrograde in Aries March 4 – April 15 2017

Venus in Aries is a bit feisty as she turns retrograde on March 4. This is symbolized by our jumper card, the 5 of wands.  Venus in Aries is feisty in general, but as she turns retrograde, she will be examining fairness and worth in relationships, friendships, and collaborations.

If a relationship of any kind is out of balance, expect to be notified or to be the one giving notice!

Full Moon in Virgo March 12, 2017

The full moon at 22 degrees Virgo could bring fruition to your hard work and attention to detail.  Where have you been accepting nothing less than perfection?  This is perhaps where you will see the payoff.

We’ve been lit up with fire sign volatility and mutable movement for the past several weeks.  With Mars in Taurus we will be able to have grounded activity and perhaps a bit more pleasure symbolized by the Ace of cups.  Mars in Taurus is very appropriate for doing yard work and planting your garden.
