New Moon in Virgo...

today in Kilmore at 4.44am at 25 degrees and 59 minutes of Virgo.

This New Moon is especially important in terms of everything that is happening in this sign - particularly with the current Saturn/Uranus opposition. New Moons present us all with the opportunity to make a fresh start, and this one incorporates and highlights the powerful Saturn/Uranus energy that is working now.

With Mercury retrograde, also in Virgo, it seems that we can now go back to a previous person or situation to get a better understanding of them in order to make the fresh start we need... of course with Mercury retrograde we are likely to need adjustments down the track, but overall things should work out well.

Obviously Uranus in this New Moon is playing a powerful role in that it is opposing the whole lot of planets in Virgo... this configuration suggests that a balance is required between the new and the old and the flexibility is also needed when handling the people and situations represented by these energies.

As usual look to see where this pattern is falling in your birth chart to see which areas of life and/or people may be involved in the expression of these energies in your own life.

Sun moves into Pisces...

today in Kilmore at 11.46pm.

Whew... the move from Aquarius of the Sun means that some of the focus of this stellium will be eased: it also suggests that while the Sun is travelling through Pisces that we will all begin to see some of the ramifications of decisions, events and actions taken while the Sun was travelling through that stellium.

(By the way, Happy Birthday to you if are a Piscean!).

Mars conjunct Jupiter in (guess what!?).... Aquarius!

This aspect becomes exact today in Kilmore at 3.27am and is quite powerful.

The transit of Mars through this sign is accenting the recent eclipses, adding to the already powerful energy working through Aquarius already. Mars can act like a trigger for long-standing energies, like Jupiter, and give it a kick start into action: the conjunction of these two planets suggest to me that we will all have a better idea of where and how the transiting Jupiter will work for us through developments that come up now.

Conjunctions are something or someone new, so a new project, person or life situation is likely to be embodied by this energy. Looking at how and where these energies are playing out in your own chart will give you some clues as to where to look for this opportunity for a fresh and powerful new start.
