The Mars, Jupiter & Pluto Conjunction
Today I've made a video blog covering this week's Mars/Jupiter/Pluto triple conjunction, which is promising to be a very intense series of transits. In this video, I also look at the God "Pan," whose name is being called out loud by millions and millions of people every day right now by virtue of the word we all keep using, "pandemic." I think it may help us to visit more consciously with the presence of Pan right now, and so I've also included a kind of sermon from the stars about Pan and his …

Thoughts from a Mars/Pluto Weekend
Well, it's been quite the Mars/Pluto weekend.Some thoughts...* Mars and Pluto together (among many other things) reflect both desire and anger, as well as the relationship between desire and anger.* When we desire something we are driven to make the choices that we believe will result in getting what we want.* We are not always aware of what we desire, or we are not always aware of why we desire what we desire.* As a result, we are often making choices based on desires that we do not …
Mars/Venus and the Radical 3rd
Mars is entering the sign of Libra today, the home sign of Venus.* Although sometimes we refer to any planet in the sign opposite its own as being it its "detriment," it was also classically said to be in its exile. The connotation of the word exile is completely different from the word "detriment," which sounds technical, dry, and negative to most people's ears.* Mars is in its exile in Venus' sign because Mars becomes the outsider, the wanderer, the foreigner, the stranger in a strange land, …

Mercury/Uranus/Mars: Floods and Revolutions
Mars is moving into a trine with Uranus just as Mercury is retrograding back into Leo to make a conjunction with Mars on the eclipse point.This morning, an I Ching Meditation on the planetary transits:* The 43rd hexagram of the I Ching is called "eliminating," or sometimes "breakthrough," and in my personal opinion, it is one of the more complex and subtle hexagrams of the 64.* The character associated with this hexagram, called "Guai" meant "to set apart," or it was a word that referred to the …

Mars/Jupiter’s Wisdom
We've just moved across the Summer Solstice, and the Sun has entered the sign of Cancer. Meanwhile, Mars is moving into a square with Jupiter.* Mars is in the superior position with respect to Jupiter, combust the Sun, and in its fall, but is also in the exaltation of Jupiter.* This means that Mars exerts a kind of forcefulness upon Jupiter but we might also say that Mars pays tribute to, or has respect for, Jupiter.* Mars in its fall, under the beams, is an old mars, and a weakened …
