VIRGO/VIRGO RISING Mars blasting into your sex/intimacy/biz/shared resources sector from Jan 1st would normally clear out the cobwebs from any unresolved entanglements on your life; but to be honest Uranus shaking up this part of your chart for the last several years has already done that, right?

SAGITTARIUS/SAGITTARIUS RISING Well you’re so beyond thrilled to have your lucky ruling planet, Jupiter in your sign this year; and permission to live large with good old fashioned Sag bravado, freedom of movement and spunky charisma –it’s gonna rock your gypsy soul! Especially as you’re still kind of recovering from Saturn trolling you in recent years with the most gruelling personal discipline/relentless obstacles to every goddamn move you made -aargh. I mean of course it was productive and you are so much leaner/meaner/more resilient now but still, what a drag that was huh? So yay to Jupiter in the house, and life being exciting and full of expansive possibilities again -omg finally. Whic
SCORPIO/SCORPIO RISING Mars into your work sector from Jan 1st is pretty auspicious for firing up the Scorpio work ethic in 2019-especially with Venus lushing up abundant vibes your earning sector from the 7th.

CANCER/CANCER RISING So as you look forward to 2019, it might be worth reflecting on how much Uranus has shaken up your vocational sector for the last several years –and just how far you’ve come since mid 2010.

AQUARIUS/AQUARIUS RISING Mars into your ideas sector from Jan 1st sets a cool precedent for the year; where you truly get how much the quality of your thoughts/beliefs and the words you communicate with others truly manifests your reality/life experience in 2019: In other words you embrace the power of clear, positive, definite intentions to create the life you truly want to live.

Cancer Full Moon, exact 2.43am Dec 23rd AEDT, right on time to illuminate our Solstice and Christmas season. Full Moons are always a rising up of whatever driving emotional imperatives have been building all month; and of course Cancerian energy is the ultimate call to feeling everything with genuine, authentic, vulnerable emotional intelligence... And I tell you what, with the wounded healer Chiron involved here ALL of our feelings & issues are magnified so intensely! Any wounding that we've been struggling with lately is suddenly revealed so clearly -yes we might be moody, needy & sensitive but at least we admit it! And of course Christmas season tends to bring up our family/relationship d

Especially after the tensions of Mercury & Venus retro then a tetchy Venus/Uranus opposition lately; aaargh we're over it and just busting to loosen up, spread our wings and focus on the next big, positive adventure in our lives. Oh yes, this Moon could be just the thing to reclaim our wildling joy & thank
So with Venus in Scorpio from mid September, including a particularly narky retrograde throughout October, we really got to have a good look at our Scorpy shadow nature. Including how we cope with our most imperative desires being apparently thwarted; the primal, gritty, disciplined strength of character we found to deal with it OR the consequences of any emo meltdowns/destructo acting out if we...erm... didn't quite cope with it? Gosh, either way it was a learning curve huh? So no wonder we needed Venus to duck back into her home turf of Libra Libra for November, to pull ourselves together... So how fabulous to have Venus back in Scorpio from today -all scrubbed up, newly powerful and ready
