Gemini Sun May 20 * Be busy, Have Fun!

May 20, 2013 Astrology, Blogroll, Entertainment

astrology_chartwheel 2The Sun moves into Gemini later this afternoon and it will give us the urge to chat up all who pass our way. Mercury, our communications, education, transportation planet, rules the 3rd sign of the Zodiac and it wants us to add variety to life and just generally perk things up.

While the Sun is in the sign of the twins (Castor/Pollux), writing, reading, conversation, quick weekend getaways, a “lets do something/lets learn something” type of energy can influence everyone regardless of where they are on the astrology calendar.  Be quick, clever, entertaining and full of news (sometimes gossip) to share. Regardless of whether you tweet, face book, mobile or have an old fashioned face-to-face, communication rules. Enjoy the flexibility, embrace your versatility.

Adding to the fun is Jupiter, planet of luck and more, more, more is always better, transiting until June 26, 2013. It can lift spirits, add to the joy of life and also make us reckless, taking Gemini’s legendary multi-tasking skills to new levels. Just be careful of scattering your energies. Do complete important projects and / or when something has been promised. Half done is half accomplished.

Gemini:  5:10PM EST / 2:10PM PST May 20, 2013 * Duality rocks, variety rocks

Gemstone: Pearl or Agate * Power Color: Yellow * Body Part: Hands

Chakras – Clues to A Body’s Energy

May 13, 2013 Blogroll, Entertainment, Life

Chakras – seven Hindu energy centers of the body, beginning at the base of the spine to the top of the head,that assist us in our flow thru life. The theory is that “balanced” Chakras lead to a balanced, fully expressed  life experience = good health. Expressions such as, “cleansing” or “unblocking” refers to re aligning ourselves with what our bodies are telling us. Interesting.

(There are many online sites that provide ‘how to”s.)

Below are the 7 Chakra points with their energy centers, colors and gemstones:

1- Root: Base of the spine (survival issues)/ Red – Garnet

2- Spleen: Below the navel (emotions) /Orange- Carnelian

3- Solar Plexus: Above the navel (our energy center)/Yellow – Citrine

4- Heart:  Chest (Love for others)/ Green – Aventurine

5- Throat: Base of the throat (inner voice) / Blue – Turquoise

6- Brow:  Third eye (knowing) / Blue Indigo- Lapis

7- Crown: Top of head (healing energy) / Purple – Amethyst

 

BTW: While traveling in Egypt, our esteemed guide shared that the 7 Chakras correspond to some of the Sacred Temples along the Nile:

1- Aswan (Root)

2- Kom Ombo/ Edfu (Spleen)

3- Dendera, Luxor (Solar Plexus)

4- Abydos (Heart)

5- Saqqara (Throat)

6- Giza (Brow)

7- Heliopolis (Crown)

Let’s Talk! Gemini Moon All Weekend

May 10, 2013 Astrology, Blogroll, Entertainment

Astro New Moon CrescentA Gemini Moon, beginning today, May 10, 2013, will have us searching for people to hear us, listen to us, or read us this weekend. We got something to say! Lucky Jupiter lingers in the natural chatty, twittering energy of communication maven Gemini making us feel that all is possible and we can’t miss.  But, let’s not get too full of ourselves. A snippy Twitter or FB post can grow legs and follow you around for a few days. (You’ll have to spend time next week deleting & apologizing, deleting & apologizing, deleting & apologizing…)

The urge to exchange ideas and deep thoughts, or just gossip, will be strong. Have fun, spread knowledge, teach something, learn something, enjoy the youthful energy that is particularly Gemini. 

Happy Mother’s Day  and have a glorious weekend!

Cinco de Mayo Pisces Moon Weekend!

May 1, 2013 Astrology, Blogroll, Entertainment

Astro moon-waning-crescent-lI love Margaritas and this weekend will be a great excuse to surrender to any music, dance and beverage favs during the celebrations on Sunday – Cinco de Mayo, May 5, 2013. The Pisces Moon all weekend will make us sensitive and vulnerable but, also social. Good times are possible.

However, a Water sign, ruled by impressionable Neptune, the Pisces Moon may have you looking for even more of an escape to another world by any means handy, but stay grounded, stay in body. Don’t let “the far side” overwhelm you or lose your grip.

Have a fun weekend!

Visions, Ideas – Jot Them Down!

April 3, 2013 Entertainment

Astro moon-waning-crescent-lAs you know, the Moon changes signs about every 2 ½ days. A good thing, since we react to the Moon’s energy as it gets flavored by the Zodiac sign of the day- keeps life interesting.

Saturday morning April 6, 2013 starts a Pisces Moon weekend. Look for emotion, empathy, creativity, escape urges and heightened intuition. Make notes of your dreams. Be as caring and compassionate as you wish, just don’t be taken in by any promises or sad stories.

Just in time for the Final Four! Have fun and stay grounded. Betting a year’s salary may not be the best way to go 8-) .

Full Moon in Relationship Focused Libra!

March 25, 2013 Astrology, Blogroll, Entertainment

Astro Moon FullThis Air sign’s Moon turns Full early on Wednesday March 27, 2013 reflecting its opposite Aries Sun. Libra Moons can make us cooperative, social with an urge to beautify both ourselves and our surroundings. Good. It will help us tune out/tone down any negative, angry voices out there (or in our heads) charm and beauty – always a good antidote. Be clear in your communications, mean what you say and act accordingly.

As I’ve mentioned in this space before, a”Full” Moon phase packs power and can give our thoughts clarity. It starts the “waning” or decreasing, of the Lunar orb, a good time to gather results or confront the useless – clean up old projects, get rid of outmoded thought patterns and  attitudes in order to clear the way for the “New” Moon on April 10, 2013.

Theatrical Leo & Practical Virgo

March 21, 2013 Astrology, Blogroll, Entertainment

Astro moon-waning-crescent-lThis weekend, beginning March 22, 2013, the Moon will shift us thru different moods. It’s all good, we can handle it.

The Lunar orb is in generous, dramatic (great for actors), attention seeking, creative and full of a lion’s pride Leo on Friday and Saturday.  This fun loving Fire sign may make our weekend full of melodrama, but we will be active, upbeat, and magnanimous, which can make for a really good time.

Sunday morning changes our energy a little when the Moon moves into Earthy, service oriented Virgo. Its traits of practicality and responsibility will give focus to doing what is needed. Take care of loose ends, pay attention to the details, handle business – accomplishment is exciting and makes you feel proud J

Make it a weekend to remember!

Aries Sun & Vernal Equinox = Spring, Yay!

March 18, 2013 Astrology, Blogroll, Entertainment, TV, Uncategorized

On Wednesday, March 20, 2013 the Sun moves into the dynamic first sign of the Tropical Zodiac – fiery Aries. The Sun has transited all 12 Astrology signs and the cycle starts anew. We also celebrate the Vernal Equinox on the same day – 1 degree of Aries. Spring is here with new, fresh chances to bloom!

Fire sign Aries’ impulsive, physical high energy can be used to springboard astrology_chartwheel 2those  ideas and projects that have been percolating all winter. Just to add to the excitement, powerful planets will be visiting Aries for the next few weeks, thereby sparking an extra oomph to this already “snap, crackle and pop” sign.

Planet ruler Mars (the Warrior planet), transiting since 3/12 will remain until 4/20/13. Speed, competition, confrontations lure us. Realize however, we can use any over abundance of aggression for accomplishment, positive action. Do something useful. Will the Love and Beauty planet Venus, in Aries until 4/15, embrace Mars and turn all that passion in another direction – it’s possible. We will certainly be more inclined to choose the “one” and zero in – could be much fun.

Mercury is in Aries too from 4/14 until 5/2/13.  Communication may have more quickness, edge and bite – you’ll be great in debates? Create powerful tweets?  (Just watch the snark.)

And last, but not least, please note that unpredictable, non conformist Uranus is transiting super octane Aries until March 2019 and wildness may occasionally break out. Sudden urges to “act” – out or up – will be hard to resist at times.  However, action with purpose and focus, rather than just because we’re bored is a good way to go. Aries is prone to rushing, risk taking and scattered energies. Think a project through and complete it.  But, don’t forget to have fun. Spring has arrived and everyone can use a little bit of controlled frolicking every once in awhile.

Aries Sun* Spring Equinox 3/20/13:  7:02 AM Eastern / 4:02 AM Pacific

*Gemstone: Garnet * Power Color: Fiery Red * Body Part: Face

FYI – March 20th is also designated as “International Astrology Day”. Always observed on the Equinox, it is a celebration of the ancient art of Astrology.

Weekend Moon: Solid Taurus & Flexible Gemini

March 15, 2013 Astrology, Blogroll, Entertainment

Astro moon-waning-crescent-lIDK what you’ve got planned for Friday March 15th, but with a grounded, earthy, Taurus Moon you could start your weekend stubborn and determined. We can use its often Bull like nature to get things done. This 2nd sign of the Zodiac, ruled by lovely Venus, also loves the sensual, so some romance, some good food are not bad to add to the agenda.

The Saturday evening Moon sends us into the fast talking, multi tasking, change loving world of Gemini for the rest of the weekend. This Air sign can be a little flighty and distracted, so think before you speak or push “send” on that email or text. Be versatile, but focused – it can work.

Regardless, whatever you get into – have a terrific weekend!

(“IDK” = “I don’t know” in text speech :) Twitter & FB have been such an education!
