Time Stamps: Introduction to Mercury retrograde followed by, Mercury retro in Aquarius & Venus: 3:51, Mercury Retro in Gemini: 12:55, Mercury Retro in Libra: 21:52 , Venus Retrograde in Capricorn: 27:24, Capricorn: 36:52, Aquarius: 39:21, Pisces: 41:44, Aries: 44:30, Taurus: 47:00, Gemini: 50:35, Cancer: 53:45, Leo: 55:31, Virgo: 56:56, Libra: 58:20, Scorpio: 1:00:37, Sagittarius: 1:03:09 .
We have three Mercury retrogrades in 2021 â all in Air Signs and one Venus retrograde in Capricorn. Operating in the background is the Saturn square Uranus where there is the âChanging of the Guardâ that exude synchronicities, coincidences & manifestation for those that are responding to these energies.
Our first Mercury is retrograde in Aquarius- 26 degrees Aquarius on 30 Jan 2021, going direct at 11 degrees Aquarius on 21 Feb 2021. Venus at 26 degrees Capricorn will conjunct Pluto at this time initiating the importance of the Venus retrograde at the same degree point of 26 degrees Capricorn in Dec 2021, culminating in Jan 2022. Jupiter conjunct this Mercury retrograde degree point of 26 degrees Aquarius in April portends a very fortunate outcome of whatever was sent out or received Jan/Feb 2021. Saturn conjuncts this Feb 2023 potentially giving this Mercury retrograde some longevity!! Pay attention
The second Mercury retrograde is at 24 degrees Gemini on 29th May, culminating on 22 June 2021 at 16 degrees on the Fortunate Star, Rigel just before the Summer Solstice. Birthdays affected are from the 6th to 16th June for Geminiâs and 7-17th Dec birthdays for Sagittarians. The Nodes are in both of these signs suggesting an amplified effect of the Gemini retrograde. There is an eclipse on 10th June at 10 degrees Gemini emphasizing the importance of communications, facts, debates and possibly diplomacy & local work, working side-by-side. Many of these activities will culminate in some fortunate outcome.
The third Mercury retrograde is at 25 degrees Libra on 27th Sept 2021 culminating at 10 degrees Libra on 18th Oct 2021. Jupiter goes direct the same day at 22 degrees Aquarius- emphasizing the positive movement forward of what transpired over the retrograde period. Libra emphasizes the Law rules (especially of society, our mores e.g.), chart, grade, diplomacy, desire & love (cocktail parties too!). It is ruled by Venus. A full Moon on 20th Oct at 27 degrees Aries Opposes not squares (apologies I said squares in the video- wrong) the retrograde degree point suggesting not all is fair in love and war! The Sun will conjunct 25 Libra on 19th October 2021 bringing in the âlawâ perhaps even the Supreme Court to weigh in.
Venus retrograde officially occurs on 19th Dec 2021 but is âinitiatedâ at the Venus/Pluto conjunction in Capricorn at 25 degrees at the Mercury retrograde in Aquarius at 30th Jan 2021. Venus will go direct on 29 January 2022 at 11 degrees Capricorn. Money, values, love, income & friendship may be highlighted. The United Kingdom is ruled by Capricorn as is the city of Oxford. Aquarius rules the Holy City of the Vatican- expect some big change of values here.

Thereâs an interesting movement of transiting personal planets all going into their respective signs at zero degrees â a critical degree of new beginnings. Mercury at zero Aquarius (conjunct both Jupiter and Saturn) square Mars in Taurus. Venus will be at zero Capricorn and trines Mars at zero degrees Taurus. Neptune though, squares the north nodes of the Moon. But the Sun sextiles the Moon with the Sun sextile Neptune and the Moon trines Neptune- a new beginning but our discouragement of our dreams not coming true or beliefs may hold us back. This is a mostly positive set of configurations so, consider the ânewâ.
A significant New Moon at 23 Capricorn 13 conjuncts both Pluto and Sun on the 12th Jan 2021. This is where the Sun, Mercury, Saturn and Pluto all formed a conjunction in Jan 2020!! Now it comes full circle the start a new transformative encouraging & hopeful time.
Uranus goes direct on the 13th Jan- the changes can now start âhappeningâ â hold on to your seat. Big changes ahead in January 2021. Venus trines Uranus but squares Chiron- unusual, unexpected new pairings occur, both in love and friendship, delayed healing may be there too. One needs to get âoverâ the hurt to move forward to positive relationships wherever they may be.
Jupiter will square Uranus once (left this out of my video) on 17th January. This is optimism meeting with disruption- âare you sure about this risk you want to take?â The answer may be yes. May be an awkward situation regarding an unexpected outcome from a risk taken. I donât see this as a negative situation. It also could be some âproblemâ regarding a outer space mission? Where something needs âsolvingâ. Doesnât mean it wonât but, might be a bit of nail- biting time. From difficulties come true breakthroughs. Might have lots of excitement attached to it too.
The President of the United States is due to be inaugurated on 20th January. Joe Bidenâs own natal Moon is at zero Taurus and conjuncts the Moon on 20th January and trines his North Nodes of the Moon at zero Virgo. The people have an emotional connection to him to lead them to the future.
On the 28th January thereâs a Full Moon at 9 Leo 06 at 11:17 AM PST, this conjuncts Donald Trumpâs natal Pluto (and Uranus) in his 12th house- hidden house of secrets and enemies- they may emerge now, or he may emerge with some secretive undercover stuff. This Moon is close to the 11 degree Leo total eclipse on 31 January 2018- a creative project of your decision then to be your authentic self comes to a culmination or finishes in some way.
On the 30th January our first Mercury retrograde starts at 26 degrees Aquarius- that same day Venus is at 26 Capricorn conjunct Pluto (transforming our: money, love & values) at 25 degrees (the Venus retrograde is also at 26 degrees Capricorn on 19 Dec 2021!!). The Mercury retro in Aquarius may have some direct influence on the Venus retrograde in DecemberâŚwatch what comes up for review and the house it is in. Jupiter, planet of good luck and expansion hits the point of the Mercury retrograde, 26 degrees of Aquarius in April 2021 suggesting good luck could come as a result of a communication? Message? Saturn in Feb 2023 conjuncts this point. So, the effects of this particular Mercury retrograde could be long lasting.
Take very good care â much love and happiness to all of you!

2021 Themes: A breath of fresh air! You are full of hot air! Letâs go fly a kite! A focus on humanity and treating all fairly. Our air quality is important. This is a great time to get your own astro chart done for the year ahead!
Mary Poppins was a typical air signâŚshe arrived on the North Wind and left on the South Wind (can we say âairâ was important for her to manifest). She was fair and wanted fairness for everyone but, she was not emotionally attached. Once she had achieved what she had toâŚshe leftâŚon the wind. So magical! Many of us were entranced by this film in our childhood.
We start 2021 off with a New Moon at 23 degrees Capricorn conjunct Pluto- Uranus goes direct the next day. On your mark, ready, set- Go!
We have 4 eclipse in 2021– A total eclipse at 5 degrees of Sagittarius in May, a A Gemini eclipse at 19 degrees in June, our first Taurus eclipse at 27 degrees in November and we end 2021 with a Total eclipse at 12 degrees of Sagittarius.
We have 3 Mercury retrogrades all in air signs. Mercury retro in Aquarius in January, Mercury retro in Gemini at the end of May, finally, Libra retro end of September.
Venus also goes retrograde on 19th Dec at 25 degrees Capricorn conjunct Pluto, going direct Jan 2022.
Saturn squares Uranus 3 times in 2021: Feb, June and December- this acts as a background energy for the whole year along with the single Jupiter square Uranus in January. Progressive change in all our structures and our beliefs- some folks will get it, others will not.
Happy New Year Everyone! Look forward to an optimistic & positive 2021!

December 2020 Astrology
We have a New Moon Total Eclipse in Sagittarius & a new 20-year Jupiter conjunct Saturn in Aquarius cycle in December 2020.

Time Stamps: Preamble for Dec 2020: 0 to 2:50, New Moon in Scorpio: 2:51, Jupiter Saturn conjunction: 5:10, Full Moon in Cancer: 8:37, Carl Sagan & Contact: 10:37, January 2021: 13:20.
From 10-12 Dec Mars, now direct trines the South Nodes of the Moon and sextiles the North Nodes of the Moon making it easier to let go of the past, especially as it relates to our outdated opinions and beliefs and opportunities to embrace the future with an eye to connecting to our local environment. The New Moon Total Eclipse is on 14th Dec at 23 Sagittarius 8; the 13th to 15th December birthdays are most affected but all Sagittarius have a brand-new start with the effects lasting up to 6 months! Optimism prevails!
Mercury conjuncts this eclipse New Moon and Venus sextiles Jupiter and conjuncts Juno suggesting some new agreement and opportunity to view marriage and the feminine principle. On the 21st December Jupiter conjuncts Saturn at 0 degrees 26 minutes Aquarius on Winter Solstice & a few hours later a quarter moon appears at zero degrees of Aries- a brand new start for us and our world emerges. This is followed up on 21st & 22nd December by a potentially powerful Mars square Pluto- use this positively to use the energy for creating positive change not arguments & disagreements- check the ego at the door.
The Full Moon is at 8 degrees Cancer and concludes a New Moon Total Eclipse in Cancer from August 2019- what new things did you start at that time that are now wrapping up? The Moon sextiles Uranus & the Sun trines Uranus- a time of âgreatâ enlightenment where we have the chance to connect with the Universe. âThe Cosmos is within us. We are made of star stuff- we are a way of the Universe to know itselfâ by Carl Sagan. His Midheaven was conjunct his North Nodes of the Moon at approximately 3 degrees of Aquarius- very close to the Jupiter Saturn conjunction!! He wrote a book and wrote the screen play, along with his wife Ann Druyan (who continues to work behind the scenes now on Cosmos with Neil Degrasse Tyson) called âContactâ starring Jodie Foster and Mathew McConaughey. This is a story of a female scientist searching for the truth & alien contact along with a love story. I see this as one possibility of the effects of the Jupiter Saturn in Aquarius 20-year cycle.
In the sky: Please get out just after sunset on the 21st December (for only a few hours) and observe, in the Southwest night sky Jupiter (shining very brightly) and Saturn to the left a little higher up- you get to witness this conjunction with your own eyes!
January 2021 heralds a spectacular New Moon in Capricorn conjunct Pluto- a brand new start! Uranus goes direct the next day. A big announcement that will be all over the âairwavesâ happens when Mercury in Aquarius conjuncts the degree point that Jupiter and Saturn formed their exact conjunction in December 2020.

Astrology of Nov 2020 New Moon in Scorpio, Full Moon Eclipse in Gemini.
Time Stamps: Dickenâs Tale of Two Cities discussion: 1:47, New Moon in Scorpio 14 Nov: 4:05, Full Moon Eclipse in Gemini 30th Nov: 11:47, Jupiter conjunct Pluto: 14:24.
This month has us starting the eclipse season again, Mercury retro goes direct on 3rd Nov and mid-month Mars goes direct in Aries- The Sun and Venus are in Scorpio casting a more serious, investigative, deep emotions hue.
I reference Dickensâ Tale of two Cities that took place during the French & USA revolutions. Link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Tale_of_Two_Cities
The famous quote: âIt was the best of times, it was the worst of timesâ but this forward to the book also includes this:â it was the age of wisdom, age of foolishness, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us.â The main there was one of a vision of resurrection & transformation- for society but also personally. We are going through a revolution in society right now that affects us individually & collectively!
The New Moon is at 23 degrees Scorpio 17 on 14th Nov at 9:07 p.m. PST. Happy New Year for all the Scorpios!! Secrets could come out and be revealed at the Mercury, not direct opposing Uranus. There will be a tendance for obsessive/possessive thoughts. See what arose at the Mercury retrograde in Scorpio/Libra- it will move out of shadow and the Scorpio influence on 20th Nov. Mercury retrograde in Scorpio you tube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fOSZ4rV2OQ&t=1457s
Full Moon Eclipse is at 8 Gemini 28 on 30th Nov at 1:28 a.m. PST. Notably, the Sun in Sagittarius will quincunx Uranus making it difficult to incorporate changes in our beliefs.
Jupiter conjunct Pluto one last time. See my video where I discuss the whole series of conjunctions during 2020. Both planets are going forward so this positively reinforces transformation. My Jupiter Pluto & Jupiter Saturn video with all Ascendants:

Full Moon in Aries-1 Oct: 1:17, New Moon in Libra-16 Oct: 3:33, Full Moon in Taurus-31 Oct: 6:46, Samhain Festival: 10:19
We have 3 moons this month- Full Moon in Aries, New Moon in Libra & we end the month, on Halloween, with a Full Moon in Taurus conjunct Uranus; the Sun opposite- fireworks for sure. The Sun is in Libra and Mercury goes retrograde- Pluto goes direct. Mars figures prominently with squares to Saturn and Pluto. The Full Moon in Aries squares Saturn closely & quincunxes the North Nodes of the Moon= challenging changes required with the old and outdated but great opportunities to embrace the new way ahead. The Sun also quincunx Uranus closely so, there may be a struggle and fightâŚbut the opportunities for a positive future are greater! Thereâs a lot happening this month with surprising events and an uncovering of the shadow side of life and the underbelly of our world with the Mercury retro in Scorpio @ 11 degrees on 14 Oct and Mercury opposes Uranus at 9 degrees Taurus on the New Moon in Libra, along with the Moon/Sun squaring Saturn & Pluto, Mars Retro square Jupiter, & Mars retro sextiles the North Nodes of the Moon, Jupiter exactly sextiles Neptune- this all adds up to us having faith, believing in the bright dream despite all the hullabaloo. Take care with driving and using tools and take care of your head (ruled by Mars) during this Mars Retro in Aries. Maars will square Saturn and Pluto from 1-8th October. The Sun opposes Mars on 14 October, take care this day regarding any sharp things, driving & emotional outbursts. The Sun opposes Pluto on the 21st– another day when cronyism raises its ugly head and is stomped on!! Power & control games come out of the woodwork.
The Gaelic Festival of Samhain is celebrated between the Autumn Equinox and the Winter Solstice on 31October when the veil between the worlds of the living and dead are thinner. We know this as Halloween. Gods make themselves visible to us humans and play games with us mortals!
For more history on this celebration follow this link2: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halloween Some interesting facts on superstitions over the years including why we bob for apples.
I checked when Guy Fox tried blowing up the UK Parliament- it was 1605, I was off by a centuryâŚI mention this in my video for those interested.

The famous quote: âIt was the best of times, it was the worst of timesâ but this forward to the book also includes this:â it was the age of wisdom, age of foolishness, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us.â The main there was one of a vision of resurrection & transformation- for society but also personally. We are going through a revolution in society right now that affects us individually & collectively!
The New Moon is at 23 degrees Scorpio 17 on 14th Nov at 9:07 p.m. PST. Happy New Year for all the Scorpios!! Secrets could come out and be revealed at the Mercury, not direct opposing Uranus. There will be a tendance for obsessive/possessive thoughts. See what arose at the Mercury retrograde in Scorpio/Libra- it will move out of shadow and the Scorpio influence on 20th Nov.

Full Moon Eclipse is at 8 Gemini 28 on 30th Nov at 1:28 a.m. PST. Notably, the Sun in Sagittarius will quincunx Uranus making it difficult to incorporate changes in our beliefs.
Jupiter conjunct Pluto one last time. See my video where I discuss the whole series of conjunctions during 2020. Both planets are going forward so this positively reinforces transformation. My Jupiter Pluto & Jupiter Saturn video with all Ascendants:

October 2020 Astrology â Time stamped
Full Moon in Aries-1 Oct: 1:17, New Moon in Libra-16 Oct: 3:33, Full Moon in Taurus-31 Oct: 6:46, Samhain Festival: 10:19
We have 3 moons this month- Full Moon in Aries, New Moon in Libra & we end the month, on Halloween, with a Full Moon in Taurus conjunct Uranus; the Sun opposite- fireworks for sure. The Sun is in Libra and Mercury goes retrograde- Pluto goes direct. Mars figures prominently with squares to Saturn and Pluto. The Full Moon in Aries squares Saturn closely & quincunxes the North Nodes of the Moon= challenging changes required with the old and outdated but great opportunities to embrace the new way ahead. The Sun also quincunx Uranus closely so, there may be a struggle and fightâŚbut the opportunities for a positive future are greater! Thereâs a lot happening this month with surprising events and an uncovering of the shadow side of life and the underbelly of our world with the Mercury retro in Scorpio @ 11 degrees on 14 Oct and Mercury opposes Uranus at 9 degrees Taurus on the New Moon in Libra, along with the Moon/Sun squaring Saturn & Pluto, Mars Retro square Jupiter, & Mars retro sextiles the North Nodes of the Moon, Jupiter exactly sextiles Neptune- this all adds up to us having faith, believing in the bright dream despite all the hullabaloo. Take care with driving and using tools and take care of your head (ruled by Mars) during this Mars Retro in Aries. Maars will square Saturn and Pluto from 1-8th October. The Sun opposes Mars on 14 October, take care this day regarding any sharp things, driving & emotional outbursts. The Sun opposes Pluto on the 21st– another day when cronyism raises its ugly head and is stomped on!! Power & control games come out of the woodwork.
The Gaelic Festival of Samhain is celebrated between the Autumn Equinox and the Winter Solstice on 31October when the veil between the worlds of the living and dead are thinner. We know this as Halloween. Gods make themselves visible to us humans and play games with us mortals!

I checked when Guy Fox tried blowing up the UK Parliament- it was 1605, I was off by a centuryâŚI mention this in my video for those interested.
