The first eclipse for the year (not visible in Melbourne and exact at 12:55pm AEDT) will pass over parts of Indonesia and spend most of its time crossing the Pacific Ocean. FYI, a supermoon is a new or full moon closely coinciding with perigee – the moon’s closest point to Earth. There will be 6 supermoons this […]
There’s so much talk lately, no less than from Donald Trump himself, about the possibility of him becoming the next President of the US. Most people, especially those of us not in the US, are watching the side show with both amusement and disbelief. “Only in America” can be heard over and over. He has […]
We have finally arrived at the solstice, when the Sun is at its fullest potential in the southern hemisphere. It actually stands still for 3 days, amplifying its energy, and then the light begins to wane as each day thereafter becomes shorter. While gift giving and being with family are important, the chart of the […]
Since 15th June, Saturn has revisited Scorpio, and from 2nd August Saturn will slowly move forward to eventually re-enter Sagittarius on 18th September. Almost immediately as Saturn stations, all the inner planets, from the Sun to Jupiter, line up to confront Saturn. First aspect is a square from Jupiter on 3rd August — an increase […]

A total lunar eclipse occurs when, with the Sun, Earth and Moon in alignment, the Moon moves through the Earth’s shadow. A lunar eclipse highlights two points in the chart – the positions of […]

November is a busy month, and possibly overwhelming… It starts off with a Solar Eclipse at 12° Scorpio on 3rd November, which is sextile to Mars and Pluto and trine Chiron. Click here for my post on this eclipse. Then on 7th November Jupiter goes retrograde at 21° Cancer. It will move back to 11° […]
In just a few hours from now we have a solar eclipse at 12° Scorpio. If you have planets between 7° – 17° Scorpio, or in Taurus, Leo, or Aquarius between 9° – 15°, then you will be affected. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon obscures the Sun blocking its light. Eclipses occur in […]
Mercury retrogrades in the fixed water sign Scorpio from 19° – 3°, 21st October – 11th November 2013 AEDT Mercury turns retrograde 3 or 4 times a year – it’s when the Earth is ahead of Mercury such that Mercury appears to be moving backwards – and this is the 3rd and final time Mercury […]
There is a Full Moon 19 October at 26° Aries and a penumbral or appulse lunar eclipse at 10:38am AEST (and therefore not visible on the east coast of Australia), where the Moon is partially obscured by the Earth’s shadow. Of course a lunar eclipse can only occur at the Full Moon, but not every […]
New Moon in Libra 0:34 UT/10:34 AEST 5th October 2013 The New Moon is the beginning of the 8 phase cycle. It’s at this time that the Moon and Sun are conjunct ie. joined together in the same sign, and the Sun impregnates the Moon with new seed. The Moon is not visible and the […]
