By Leo Knighton Tallarico As the Full Moon in Scorpio leaves our awareness after the weekend of May 18-19, we get ready to come down another notch into what is real in our lives. The last half of the current lunar cycle begins this week as we view a Moon getting darker by the minute.  At the same time as the lunar cycle darkens, the solar cycle gives us in the Northern Hemisphere of Earth more light by the minute. The Moon darkens until June 3, as the New Moon in Gemini that

By Leo Knighton Tallarico This is such a time of uncertainty now.  It is difficult for many to feel OK inside, as stress tries to creep in and take over. If you are paying attention, you can see how many issues out in the world are being taken “to the edge”:  Israel/Gaza; Israel/Iran; North Korea again; Venezuela; trade wars with China and the economy;  Syria/Israel. The current US presidential administration feels very chaotic and unpredictable, but what is much worse is tha

By Leo Knighton Tallarico The weekend of May 4-5 brings a mixed bag of energy shifts. The New Moon in Taurus is at 6:45 PM EDT. Saturday May 4.  An important configuration between Mars, Jupiter, and Pluto is exact on May 5. Taurus is fixed earth, and as such requires situations to feel solid, comfortable, and secure.  Physical resources like homes, land, money, assets, and a bull (a symbol of the sign Taurus) stock market fit the bill for Taurus. Taurus also makes manifest wh

By Leo Knighton Tallarico The long awaited New Moon in Aries has arrived! It is an early morning time of the year now, and doors and windows have been opened to let in the fresh air of new beginnings. But if we look at the roads outside the doors, we see car pileups blocking the way forward.  Saturn and Pluto made challenging squares to that New Moon, letting us know there are obstacles to be overcome if we want to be able to cruise forward with our lives after this New Moon.

By Leo Knighton Tallarico Shit has certainly hit the proverbial fan out in the world.  The old world is purging out its debris for all to see. Trump meeting with Kim Jong Un did not go as hyped for.   Congressional hearings with Michael Cohen gave out ugly info about Trump that tears his character apart.    Pakistan and India are macho strutting around with nuclear weapons, with all humanity put in danger. This is all coming out not long after a most intense Eclipse Season ea

By Leo Knighton Tallarico We are still settling into this time of processing and sorting things through, as we move into the 4th and last quarter of the current lunar cycle.  This current lunar cycle began on February 4 at the Aquarius New Moon. It ends on March 6 at the Pisces New Moon. And here in the Northern Hemisphere on Planet Earth, we are moving through the last month of Winter,  Sun in Pisces time. The Pisces two fish swim in opposite directions, one upstream and one

By Leo Knighton Tallarico Last week’s meeting between Mars and Uranus in Aries created an intense energy field for us to move through. And its overall purposes were to empower each of us, and to liberate us from stuck places in our minds or lives. It also intended to motivate us to move forward on our path, even if that path was recently challenged or impeded. And overall for many it brought breakthroughs and liberation from stuck places. And we know it is essential now to be

By Leo Knighton Tallarico As we passed through the New Moon in Aquarius this last week, we effectively put an end to Winter Eclipse Season 2019. This coming week, still “climbing upward” through the waxing half of the current lunar cycle, we experience a powerful and liberating planetary combination of Mars conjunct Uranus at the last degree of Aries (29+ degrees). Last week, after the Aquarius New Moon on the 4th, the first winds of this Mars/Uranus conjunction were blowing

by Leo Knighton Tallarico It is transition time this week, as Mercury has just gone Direct; there is a New Moon in Pisces Saturday March 1 at 3 AM EST; Mars changes directions and goes Retrograde- also on March 1; Saturn goes Retrograde on March 2; and Jupiter goes Direct on Thursday March 6. As planets change direction, either from Direct to Retrograde or from Retrograde to Direct; their meaning and energy have increased intensity and importance. Add the New Moon in Pisces t
