What Wonders still may Come? The galaxy shown above, a type of object known as a “blazar.” Like many active galaxies, a blazar emits oppositely directed jets of particles traveling near the speed of light as matter falls into a central supermassive black hole. NASA scientists are not yet sure what it means, but one thing is certain — we are constantly influenced on earth by massive energies from the cosmos.

Astro-Weekend Update…

As the weekend rolls in, Saturday finds the Moon (Emotions) working in conjunction with both Neptune and Chiron. This makes for magical Pisces sort of day when your Spirit will carry you forward and heal some of the stress you may feel. If you have been trying to take action, but feel thwarted… relax. Let the Light of your Spirit shine today as you take a break from things. Recreation is in order as a light spirit carries the day.

“…your opportunity is to shine on as you enjoy talking with those close to you over a pleasant coffee break.”

Sunday finds Mercury — planet of intelligence and communication — working in conjunction with the Sun (Personality). The Moon (Emotions) shows harmony with Pluto (breakthrough). Putting these influences together means that your opportunity is to shine on as you enjoy talking with those close to you over a pleasant coffee break. Think about how much gets done in life by inspirations enjoyed in conversation. We also see a bit of stress regarding initiative — that’s ok… you can get started on bold new ideas as the week takes off.

Monday offers a rare day of quadruple conjunctions where planetary energies combine in several areas to bring about a strong start for your week. Mercury appears twice, lending its communicative energy to both the Moon and Uranus. Today you will find writing project plans, and communicating them to team members a successful effort. At home, the balanced feeling extends into family and romantic relationships. Enjoy it.

Tuesday looks good for starting new plans, and relationships. The Moon is dancing in trine with Mars — a good alignment to launch those things you may have put on hold. Pick up the phone and call that person you’ve been neglecting. Spring is here, and this is St. Paddy’s week — anything can happen now. That’s the magic that’s really all around us, and behind all that happens, at work.

Cosmic Wonders: The “Sombrero Galaxy”, captured above by NASA’s Hubble telescope, features an amazing ring the size of our entire Milky Way galaxy. An old saying is “As Above, so Below”… so remember to wonder at the beauty of it all above in the heavens, and right here on Earth. Happy Holidays.

Saturday shows a day of great harmony as we bask in the glow of a great holiday weekend. The Moon dances in trine with Venus and Pluto. It is also in harmony with Chiron, Neptune, and Jupiter. It’s a healthy day, where the holiday Spirit can carry you far with those around you. Listen, love, and embrace this weekend. May the Spirit of the holidays carry through the weekend and the coming week.

“As always, communication is involved, so listen carefully to loved ones.”

Sunday brings some stress into play between Mars and Saturn. In the holiday season, this can mean though it still feels festive, you spend the day doing some practical things — just enjoying the family over mugs of hot cocoa, and TV. The Moon is in trine with the Sun which gives us a certain contented feeling. But some emotional tension is now showing with Uranus, Venus, and Pluto. Listen to the heartfelt messages from your family and friends today — you can learn a lot.

Monday comes in busy as people rush to get things done mid holiday break. The Moon (Emotions) is squaring off with Mars (Initiative), so while you take care of business, it’s not the best time to start anything new. Venus (Love) is in play working in conjunction with Pluto (transformation) — so, watch for opportunities to enrich your relationships. There’s also some natural emotional blockages to work through — life revolves around feelings and when you learn to face them, it will go easier.

Tuesday settles down a bit with the Moon playing nice with Saturn — planet of practicality. This is the sort of day for an extended coffee break with friends over good conversation. We see also a number of stress indicators which offer two types of opportunities for you: you can use the energy as motivation to get things done, and you can learn what’s at the root to get past any blockages. As always, communication is involved, so listen carefully to loved ones.
