Horoscopes by New York Astrologer Alyssa Landers.
Libra is known as the Zodiac sign with the most affinity for building Significant Relationships. But don’t expect to begin any new ones—at least not right now, anyhow. Why? This Libra New Moon, exact on October 16, occurs immediately following Mercury’s Retrograde in Scorpio, landing it smack dab in the middle of the Mars-Mercury Double Retrograde Madness this Fall of 2020.
So brace yourself. Because when it comes to Relationships? Thorns and Landmines Abound.
Read moreThe key to not setting yourself up for failure? Setting small, achievable goals and not giving away our energy in a whole-hog pursuit of capitulating to the needs of others, as this will only lead to seething resentment or outright rebellion is the way to avoid the many booby traps of this New Moon.
Read moreSaturn's potent influence on this Cancer New Moon chart has a stark “shape up or ship out” feel to it, pressing us to make amends, pay your dues or avoid “pushing your luck” while you’re ahead (or whatever). Plus, there’s a whole boatload of planets in Cardinal signs, hungry for Action & New Beginnings—especially on the Home & Family Front. Many will decide (or be forced) to move house with this New Moon, as its uncomfortably tight opposition to Saturn in Capricorn shines a light on whatever’s is or isn’t working for you anymore.
Read moreThe Sturgeon Full Moon on August 3 is the epitome of that never-ending Aquarius Paradox, hyper-aware of the gray area of life in its most abstract sense yet decidedly “black and white” if not seemingly detached in their approach to emotions. But with Aquarius it’s always a game of all or nothing—so there’d better be no hedging of emotional or financial bets when the moment comes to, ahem, self-express.
Read moreIf you cut everyone and everything out of your life that creates even the mildest discomfort, where does that leave you in the end? Ahem, alone. So before you go waving your emotional scalpel around indiscriminately, make sure you examine your role in your relationships…Because apparently it takes two to tango. And who doesn’t want to tango, ya know?
Read moreWith the Solar Eclipse in Cancer on June 21st in the midst of Mercury’s stationary Retrograde and Venus’ stationary Direct period, plus the impending Jupiter-Pluto conjunction in Capricorn? It’s a lot to process, and much is occurring underneath the surface.. But yes—the grass is on its way to growing greener once again…
Read moreThe goal here is to better understand the way we engage (or refuse to) when confronted with the pain or perceived neediness of others—and to question whether their neediness is really a projection of our own tendency to codependency. So even though it’s not about manifesting our Manifest Destiny? This Mercury Retrograde in Cancer is an extremely rare opportunity to—no, not manifest—but “do the inner work,” as they say.
Read more“Pain = Bad” is a dangerous conflation, so if avoidance of even the slightest interpersonal discomfort or feeling of rejected (even when it’s likely only in your head) is your MO? You might be in for a rude awakening. Pain is growth. The trick though? Learning to put your inner Manifestation Monologue on “Mute” and take in (not take on) whatever’s got you running to and fro.
Read moreSo being Peter Pan for a bit might just be the spoonful of sugar that helps the medicine go down, as there’s a push to identify and relinquish whatever (emotional) baggage has been holding us back from acting on our latest & greatest romantic reverie…But can you (or anyone?) Maintain Self-Awareness in the Midst of a Full-Blown Fantasy? We’ll see.
Read moreWe may be physically drained by the monotony of our surroundings, frustrated with our daily lives yet bottling it up…but whether it’s a Denial Fog, Fantasy Fog, Frustration Fog, or some combination of them all, there’s a need to face up to and restructure our lives in small ways—or risk falling prey to our Bubble Boy status quo.
Read moreVenus is Retrograde in Gemini from May 13th until June 25th this year—the first time since October - November of 2012. So get ready for a return of not just exes but anyone from the depths of your social or romantic past. But Gemini has what you might call “Shiny Ball Syndrome.” In other words? Their constant mind-changing and chasing greener pastures often costs them, well, many a dime.
Read moreIt’s Springtime for Hitler on April 22nd, as the Taurus New Moon at 10:46 pm (EDT) ushers in a need to appreciate the absurd. Yes that’s right: Combine “Dictator” with “Flower Child” and out pops a Taurus. Add the demands of Saturn in Aquarius? You might be so overwhelmed with Absurdity now might be a fine time for a chill pill (or five).
Read moreWhether we’re utterly jobless or working remotely, quarantined alone or with significant others, Venus in Gemini + the recent illumination of the Libra Full Moon has turned up the volume, summoning all of our inner Bugaboos. The only question is: What type of Bugaboo are you?
Read moreThe 4.7 Libra Full Moon. What’s it all about? Well, we’re socially constipated, for one. So throw some glitter on your desperation & butt dial whoever you’d like. Because let’s get real: Does it really matter now? (Hint: No).
Read moreHave we been living for ourselves, or for others? If the answer is “yeah/sorta/kinda,” then it’s time to confront whatever futile efforts, insecurities or fears we’ve allowed to hold us back and focus on what we need to not only survive but thrive…
Read moreSaturn has been in Capricorn since December 19, 2017. But on March 21, 2020, Saturn moves into the sign of Aquarius for the first time since January 1994, marking the beginning of a crucial turning point in our collective consciousness as we shift our focus from (Personal) Responsibility to (Societal) Accountability.
Read moreSo as we move past January into 2020 and Saturn moves slowly but surely away from Pluto in Capricorn and into the sign of Aquarius on March 21st, we’re becoming accustomed to a new reality. And while things may not be sure, they are sure to change…
