New Moon in VIRGO ~ Courtesy of Skybear Astrology
By Larry Williamson
New Moons are times of new beginnings, planting new seeds and setting intentions. The New Moon in Virgo will focus on issues related with health, healing, service and preparation. This New Moon makes a close conjunction to Saturn in Virgo. It’s never too late to pay homage to the virgin goddesses.
The woman who is virgin, one-in-herself, does what she does, not because of any desire to please, to be liked or approved, to catch his interest or love, but because what she does is true. She is what she is, because that is what she is. Virginity is a process of being true to oneself, and if one has not been true than virginity is renewable. It’s never too late to become a virgin!
Woman can renew their virginity, intactness and integrity through the rites of Aphrodite, where she would annually renew her virginity by bathing, cleansing and purifying herself by the sea. The value placed upon virginity is a man’s idea, and that’s how men and the patriarchy controlled woman. As if virginity was a wonderful thing in the first place.
The degree for the New Moon from Zodiacal Symbology reads: An antique temple of the muses built on a rock, over which flows an enchanting fall of clear sparking water. Denotes one who would seek the ideal in all things, even amidst war and destruction. One of a strange, happy, though wise philosophy of thought. It is a symbol of cultivation.
This is the best New Moon to take greater responsibility for our health physically, emotionally and spiritually. Its time to get serious about dietary changes, exercise routines and addressing medical issues we’ve been either denying, or putting off. Saturn is about commitment and Virgo represents the body. This is the right time to deal with our “inner critic” and attachment to perfectionism. There’s an indigenous saying that goes, is the good, true and beautiful in my nature as strong as the whispers of my demons and monsters? We must answer yes to that on a daily basis.
This New Moon will energize the third of five oppositions on September 15th between Saturn and Uranus. These cycles often coincide to political, social and economic changes. The last opposition cycle was in the mid-1960s when the Civil rights movement, Vietnam War, Anti-War protests and the emergence of the Hippie revolution took center stage. Those with late degrees of mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces) will feel it most intensely. Mercury, the ruler of Virgo squares Pluto on the 17th, suggesting that knowledge is power! Small issues can take on great importance. Your mind can probe beneath the surface. Secrets will be revealed.

Mercury appears retrograde 3 times a year for approximately 3 weeks at a time. Here’s the kicker ~ I attach a 3 week shadow on each side making it a 9 week period altogether.
Not all of Mercury retrograde is negative, though. Yes, cell phones and computers can get glitchy; the light can come on in your car and you take it to the mechanic and nothing is wrong with it. ( I always tell people, unless it’s the break light or something important, wait until after the retrograde to get it checked because it just might fix itself!)� Anything with communication and transportation can go haywire and if you’re a Gemini or a Virgo, ruled by Mercury, it can be even more frustrating.�
You must really be careful of what you say and how you say it.� Words can be misconstrued.� It’s also a bad time to start anything new or sign important contracts or documents.� The exception can be someone who is born with Mercury retrograde�~ it does not affect them as much.� So what can possibly be positive?� Lots!� Mercury retrograde is an excellent time to contact or hear from people from your past!� Rather than solicit new clients, return to your sphere of influence.� Reach out to someone you need to REconcile with.� It’s an awesome time to REconnect.� Go back and FINISH old projects so when the retrograde period is over you can begin new endeavors with a clean slate.� It’s not the best time to get married but how about REmarried?� Rather than plan a trip to some place new, why not REvisit a favorite destination? Different people have different opinions on traveling while Mercury is retrograde.� If it can be avoided, it probably should.� Some plans may have to be REscheduled.� It’s almost impossible to hook up with new people but an excellent time to get together with old friends or plan a REunion!� Just about anything you can put “RE” in front of works.� Refurbish, redo, reconnect etc.� The one exception can be remodeling.� If it’s your first time doing it and contracts are involved, try and wait until after.� Things will have to be REdone!�
Don’t go to a new agency, partner, or job if you can help it.� Try to connect new endeavors with the past if that makes sense.� Also, if you’ve had a dilemma you may now suddenly have an epiphany.� If you’ve been waiting for something or someone to arrive it could happen now!�
We all have the ability to focus on the positive and make the most of trying situations.� Use your energy wisely and constructively.� Rather than branching out in new directions, go down a tried and true path.� Be patient and really cautious with the words you choose and use.� Drive extra carefully. Take time to REview.� Think before you take action as your mind (Mercury) could be playing tricks on you!� Stay as focused as possible and don’t let it run your life.� Did Mercury retrograde bother you BEFORE you knew about it?� We must deal with the past before we head into the future!�� ���

SEPTEMBER ASTROLOGICAL PREDICTIONS ~ Featuring Virgo
By Kerry Fezza 2009
Some planetary notes this month:
Mercury goes Retrograde on the 6th but truthfully it’s already in effect until October 14th. I will resurrect my old blog next week on MRx to help remind everyone of the positive uses of that energy too!
Pluto, the intense little planet ruling nuclear energy, goes direct on September 11th. Another good reason to pay attention on that day!
Saturn and Uranus will face off again on the 15th. Look for matters pertaining to old vs new, conservatism vs socialism, conventional vs unconventional etc. This same opposition took place in the mid 1960’s in exactly the same signs (only the planets were reversed)!
The month of September should be interesting to say the least!! And on a personal note….
If you know your Rising/Ascendant sign and/or your Moon sign, read those forecasts too. Especially refer to your Rising sign for relationship issues.
Peace and Prosperity!
VIRGO
Happy New Year to the most meticulous, vital, and analytical sign of the Zodiac! As hard working individuals you have really been through a lot these past several years.
Last year’s focus was primarily on self improvement. You should be feeling a strong sense of accomplishment as things finally start to manifest and your goals are achieved. Patience and persistence pay off!
As you build your own self worth, it will reflect in the people and circumstances you attract to you. This may explain why relationships, romantic and platonic, remain unpredictable and reminiscent of the past. You will be forced to repeat the circumstance until you learn the lesson. It’s time to break old habits and not feel guilty about it. You have worked hard to better yourself but you can’t change others behavior ~ only set an example.
Romance is super passionate and fated. Again, remember not to surrender your power. Take control of how you want to be loved.
Because Mercury Retrogrades around your birthday, expect a lot of your past to crop up this year. Not just old circumstances, but old friends, old lovers, old ideas etc. It’s a great year to resurrect an old project left unfinished. Perhaps your writers block will be lifted? Sometimes we have to go back to the past in order to navigate the future. Embrace the nostalgia but keep it in perspective!
Look for a breather and a big weight lifted off your shoulders as Saturn leaves your sign at the end of October. It will dip back into Virgo in 2010 giving you an added opportunity to finish whatever was left undone. It could also reinforce some cold, hard reality. Rise to the challenge with your new found strength!

Yet another Eclipse! Because I’ve written so much about Eclipses this summer I thought I would include this one with the horoscopes. Please refer to my previous blogs for more info.
This Eclipse is the final one in the series affecting the 4 signs Leo, Aquarius, Taurus, and Scorpio. These signs are wrapping up a 2 year cycle that should feel complete around November.
Because this Eclipse occurs in the progressive sign of Aquarius, we can use alternative approaches to old problems and dilemmas. Thinking outside the box, fits good here! Remain open minded and keep your friends close for there is strength in the collective conscience.
LEO
Happy Birthday to the most gregarious, generous, and extravagant sign of the Zodiac!
You’ve been through a lot these past couple of years while fate has intervened to teach you some life lessons. It was an important time for relationships of all kinds and there were probably major domestic adjustments too. Rest assured, this year you’ll be picking up the pieces and putting them into place.
The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse this month continues to highlight your partnership sector. Expect some changes here, especially if your partner is a female. This Eclipse highlights the women in your life.
Significant others are learning a lot right now either literally or figuratively. Their growth and expansion is tied to their past and is part of their healing process. Give them the space, freedom, and independence that you desire. Leo’s have big shoulders and you’ll know when to let them cry on you!
Eclipses can also affect ones health and Leo’s really need to pay special attention to their physical bodies! As stated last month your most vulnerable areas are the heart, spine, skin, bones, knees, and teeth. Be as good to yourself as you are to everyone else! And don’t let your ego get in the way of Doctors visits when needed!
Financially you’re still feeling the pinch of the economy and perhaps your own careless decisions. You’ll start to feel the weight lift in November. In the meantime be prepared for the unexpected especially where joint finances or investments are concerned! This month is good for balancing the checkbook and any negotiations regarding your personal funds. But don’t discuss with or lend money to pushy friends, as arguments could result.
This month favors income generated behind the scenes. There is major transformation around your work area ~ perhaps the death of an old job freeing you up for a better opportunity? Watch out for power struggles and confrontations. It’s a new year for you ~ decide if you should move on…
Romance is down played this month or kept secret. While it’s your time to enjoy the spotlight, there is also a part of you that requires privacy. Take some time for introspection and share your love for others with yourself!

New Moons are times of new beginnings. They’re excellent for putting your intentions out there to the Universe. This New Moon, in the sign of CANCER ~ Family, domestic issues, the home, and real estate concerns ~ is super charged with powerful energy!! So get out your pens and make the manifestation List of your dreams!!
The Solar Eclipse tonight in Cancer follows a new series of Eclipses in the the signs of CANCER & CAPRICORN and will also affect ARIES & LIBRA (The Cardinal Signs). Remember, if your Moon or Ascendant/Rising Sign is one of the above, you will experience these vibrations too! Eclipse energy is felt for a approximately 2 years. The power of this series started back in April.
Eclipses can bring many things but most of all they necessitate change! Usually that change occurs around the residence (moving), relationships, and bringing hidden things into the light. If you’re one of the above 4 signs, you’re beginning anew in one or all of these areas. The more willing you are to make alterations where necessary, the less adversity you’ll experience, and the more success you will have with your new endeavors!!
For a more detailed look at Eclipses, re-read my previous article on the Full Moon Eclipse in Capricorn.
Don’t forget to think big and utilize this energy to your advantage!!

FULL MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE, JULY 7, 2009 (15 Degrees CAPRICORN) �~�� Relationships! �Resident Changes! Death of the old SELF, old ways, old habits!� Hidden things coming to light!
Full Moons are a time of culmination, when things come to a head or come to fruition.� Full Moons occur when the Moon is directly opposite the Sun.�� This full Moon in Capricorn, ruled by Saturn ~ hardships, delays, frugality ~ in the same sign as Retrograde Pluto ~ death, resurrection, transformation ~ is super charged as an Eclipse!� Kick that energy up a couple notches!!�
The Lunar Eclipse tonight and the Solar Eclipse in Cancer on the 21st ushers in a new series in the signs of CANCER & CAPRICORN.� They will also be affecting ARIES & LIBRA (The Cardinal Signs).� Remember, if your Moon or Ascendant/Rising Sign is one of the above, you will experience these vibrations too! Eclipse energy is felt for a approximately 2 years.� The power of this series started back in April.�
Because this Eclipse occurs in the same sign as Pluto, although they�re not that close, I think explains the rash of celebrity deaths.� Only because they�re the ones we hear about.� People may have pets or loved ones who have passed on recently too.� It has a lot to do with transitioning to the next level and may be connected to the ascension process.� Check out Karen Bishop�s site �What�s Up On Planet Earth�.
Eclipses themselves can be associated with death.� Not just the physical but the complete transformation of self.� This is a year of change for everyone worldwide.� We must adjust our lives where we feel the need or the Universe will do it for us.� Much better to initiate your own makeover!!� Letting go of outdated ways, thinking, and doing is not an easy process.�� At least if you make the effort it�s showing the Universe your trying and making forward progress, even if it�s baby steps!� You may want to start with cleaning out closets or a garage ~ great symbolism and a good use of this energy!
Eclipses also play a large part in Relationships.� They can definitely bring about the death of a long term partnership that�s way past its expiration date OR they can bring someone significant into your life!!� If you�ve been waiting for someone special or something serious, an Eclipse affecting your Sign can really bring things to you ~ Be careful what & how you wish for it!� Be really clear on your intent!
Another affect Eclipses have on the above mentioned signs is MOVING or important changes around the residence.� My husband & I, both Aries, finally purchased a home in April after searching for many months.� (Once the Eclipse energy started working on our sign, our offer was accepted after several rejections on prior properties.)� Now as the Eclipse itself hits, we�re working very hard on our new home!

July is a big month with lots of planetary activity!! Uranus turns retrograde on the 1st ~ Expect the unexpected for that week at least! Surprises emanating from the past are in store until the end of the year.
There will also be two Eclipses this month. A Lunar Eclipse on July 7th, and a Solar Eclipse on July 21st. The signs most affected by these will be Cancer, Capricorn, Aries, and Libra. If your Moon or Ascendant is any of those signs you can expect changes this summer two. It may be time to transform your love life or your residence.
Change is all around us. We need to embrace it in order to grow. These are progressive times!
CANCER
Happy Birthday to the most sensitive, familial, and nurturing sign of the Zodiac! Hang on tight for a wild ride this year!! You’re entering into a 2 year cycle of fate. A lot of which will have to do with working out past karma. Be prepared for surprises and be willing to adjust accordingly.
Since January, there’s been major transformation around partnerships and starting next month destiny will smile on all relationships. You can expect a lot of passion!! How that works itself out is up to you! You’re drawing in people who are a lot more intense and persuasive. Don’t surrender your personal power. Remember what you attract and how you respond, is a direct reflection of yourself. If you feel a loss of control in close personal situations, pull back and reflect on yourself. You can’t alter others behavior but you can modify how you react. The next few years will compel you to make dramatic alterations within yourself. Circumstances will be very personal.
The 1st half of your year may find you reflecting on your Spirituality. Looking for higher guidance can really broaden your horizons both physically and metaphorically. It may also provide some intuitive, inspirational guidance to help you through your current financial predicament. Again, focus on your individual needs and let your partners manage their own affairs. Don’t take on anyone’s drama!
Joint finances, investments, and shared resources can pick up as early as mid October. Pay attention to all money details the last half of July. Not a bad time to ask for a raise either!
You may also have unexpected opportunities to return to school, revisit a distant location, and revamp legal or publishing endeavors. An unexpected, long distance message might lead to an inheritance.
Communication itself is slow. Choose your words carefully and sparingly, especially where family is concerned. Neighbors or community members might pose a challenge to you this year. So could internet connections. Tried and true, slow and sure is the best way to handle all of the above. Fate is working this sector too until the end of 2009.

New Moons are times of new beginnings, planting new seeds and of setting intentions. We are all familiar with the sign Cancer associated with the crab. However, my premise is that many of the attributes and meaning of the signs come from smaller star groups that surround the major constellations of the zodiac. Therefore, the meaning for the sign Cancer actually derives from the bear. Directly below the constellation of the crab is the constellation Ursa Major, the Great Bear.
The qualities and principles associated with Cancer such as nurturing, mothering and care taking comes from characteristics of the bear rather than the crab? Consider how the bear is about protection, nesting, maternal and loves food. Once again, the point I want to drive home is to understand that the meaning of the signs in the zodiac are influenced by other star groups and constellations near the region of the major constellations of the zodiac.
This New Moon is the second “Crisis Moon” of 2009 and the most powerful occurring so close to the Summer Solstice. The Crisis Moon is when the Moon is near its perigee (closest to earth) emotional and domestic issues become more intensified especially with the Moon in it’s own sign, Cancer. It’s not uncommon for those with the sign Cancer, the Moon, or 4th house strongly activated in their charts to be susceptible to Lunar Burnout! This is a form of a breakdown that happens when you’re called on to nurture others too much, for too long and you’re not doing enough to nurture and care for yourself. People who suppress or refuse to honor their own essential core needs, and subordinate their needs for the needs of others, are those who wind up emotionally burned out (Moon). Cancer’s never know when to cut the cord and stop trying to nurture the world.
Cancer is a sign related to emotional memory. Cancer’s often think about the hurt or wounds of the past, rather than focusing on the joy of recovery. Holding on and clinging to the past is Cancer’s way of staying stuck in the womb, of self-preservation. The Sabian Symbol for the New Moon reads: A MAN ON A MAGIC CARPET HOVERING OVER A LARGE AREA OF LAND. Keynote: The ability to expand one’s consciousness by stabilizing one’s point of view at a higher level.
This is one of the best New Moon’s to work on home improvements or repairs. We can simply enhance our home life by spending quality time with family members and those we love. This is a favorable time to let go of old defensive mechanisms that could be detrimental to your emotional well-being and relationships with others. Learn to let go of old attachments and codependency that no longer serve you. Cancer is the sign of the home and family and unless you have a home that heals your spirit you will never heal!

SUMMER SOLSTICE, June 20/21, 2009
By Kerry Fezza
Astrologers note: I use a solar chart beginning with 0 degrees of the Sun Sign on the Ascendant. I then use equal house cusps, following with the next sign ~ 2nd House 0 Leo and so forth.
I like to look at mundane events every three months, on the solstices and equinoxes to gage what our nation can potentially experience during that time. However, you can also apply the info on a personal level.
When we study astrology we are looking at how the different planets aspect each other and this chart has some uncanny aspects that are really tight by degree.
The Sun at 0 degrees Cancer, in direct opposition to retrograde Pluto, signifies a nation in ongoing crisis. In the Vernal Equinox chart Pluto was in the 10th house, still having us appear strong and powerful in the world’s eyes. Now that Chiron is in the solar 10th, and Pluto is on the 7th house cusp, we are emerging as openly wounded making us vulnerable to attack from others who feel more powerful. Pluto oppositions can also bring hidden things into the light. We could be exposed from past deceptions and we may uncover a powerful plot against us.
The Sun-Pluto opposition forms an out of sign T-square to Uranus in Pisces in the 9th. Our foreign counter parts are in a period of instability too, especially in regards to religion/Spirituality, legal, educational, and oil/gas resources. The chart’s ruler the Moon, conjunct Mercury in the 12th, reminds us that any hidden agendas we might have can wind up hurting us and them. We need to compromise and grow Spiritually to keep up with others. A more open minded approach suggests possible financial aid with gas/oil supplies as evidenced with the exact conjunction of Jupiter, Neptune, and Chiron in the 8th in Aquarius in an out of sign trine to the Sun and sextile to Pluto. Because all three points are retrograde and in a tight funky aspect to Uranus, we must handle all foreign relations delicately.
The same funky aspect exists between the Sun/Pluto opposition and the North and South nodes. Both nodes straddle our financial sectors making tweaking the economy our #1 priority. We are way out of our comfort zone and will need to think of new and different ways to boost our failing financial system.
The most positive configuration falls in our house of allies. We can derive much joy, pleasure, and perhaps economic aide from the Venus/Mars conjunction in the 11th ruled by Taurus. The exact conjunction exactly trines Saturn in Virgo in the 3rd. If we communicate honestly and effectively and work hard alongside our friends, we can make positive steps forward and benefit in the long term.
Factor in the USA (7 degrees) Gemini Rising Chart for a few notables! All of a sudden S.S. 12th house Moon conjunct Mercury leaps into prominence! They fall on the USA ascendant and USA Uranus exactly! Expect the unexpected as we’re in for some big surprises! May be even about our new President??
Hidden things are bound to come to light any day now as the summer is riddled with eclipses. These will mainly affect our financial sectors in both the Summer Solstice and USA charts. I’ll be writing a separate blog next month that will give more details on the eclipses and what to expect!
USA Mars falls in S.S. 12th reinforcing the notion of hidden enemies and secret aggression ~ whether it comes from internal or external forces. It’s wide square to S.S. Uranus in the 9th, and wide trine to the Jupiter/Neptune/Chiron/USA Moon (18 Aquarius) stellium in S.S. 8th, strengthens the notion of unexpected foreign aggression but offers we might be able to buy our way out or perhaps strike a trade for services??
USA Mars also squares S.S. Saturn in the 3rd, suggesting a communication breakdown or a delay in tactics. S.S. Saturn is applying to a conjunction of USA Neptune, both in Virgo. Again we must be very clear in what we say and how we say it. (This will be even more important in the Autumnal Equinox chart.) Any deceptions we generate can come back to bite us in the butt. These 2 planets hooking up in the 3rd, also explains the media’s saturation with the ‘Go Green’ movement. Saturn trine the Venus/Mars conjunction in the S.S. 11th house, offers us the opportunity to form important groups and follow other countries’ examples, making us more popular in the global community.
The USA Cancer stellium falls in both charts 1st house conjunct S.S. Sun and opposing S.S. Pluto. The Venus/Jupiter conjunction supports the notion of self love and optimism suggesting we can fight outward aggression through our strength of Unity. We’re approaching our Solar Return (birthday) in a couple of weeks also, signifying new beginnings. A positive approach will certainly benefit us in these trying times. Let us not be our own worst enemy, but hold our heads high, work on our own growth, especially Spiritual, and embrace the change that will ultimately lead us to our higher purpose!

FULL MOON IN SAGITTARIUS! ~ Party, Party, Party!
Full Moons are when things come to a head or come to fruition. Either way it’s usually lively! And what could be more lively than a Full Moon in Sagittarius!?
Sagittarius rules higher education, Religion, Law, Philosophy, and distant people, places, and things. It is a fun, outgoing, and expansive sign.
Jupiter is Sagittarius’ ruling planet and currently resides in Aquarius ~ sign of the unusual, unconventional, higher minded, metaphysical, humanitarian, and inventive spirit! Aquarius is all about friendships and groups.
Given the two influences and the intensity of a Full Moon, one would expect a very social weekend. You could be home cramming for finals but don’t be surprised if you’re interrupted by boisterous friends!
There will probably be a lot of big year end parties on college campuses. There could also be many Spiritual gatherings or church picnics this weekend. Family reunions are favored too. It’s a good time be active in your community and network, network, network. A lot of socializing will probably be done over cocktails. Sag’s love their wine!
Sagittarians are usually very sports minded so there may be many sporting events this weekend (most likely followed by a big victory party!)
Either way, this weekend should be a lot of fun. The energy will be high and lively! All physical activities are favored and there will be a lot of stimulating conversation with the Sun in quick, witty Gemini!
Embrace this time to let loose and have a good time. Branch outside of your comfort zone and try new things. Sagittarius does it big and bold!!

JUNE ASTROLOGICAL PREDICTIONS ~ Featuring Gemini!
By Kerry Fezza 2009
Neptune has turned retrograde and Jupiter will too on the 15th. It’s an excellent time to ‘re’invest in your Spirituality or any artistic/creative endeavors. Success may take a little longer in coming but keep at it. This energy will be most intense for Pisces and Sagittarians.
The Summer Solstice is on the 20/21st. I’ll be preparing a separate blog on that.
Just a reminder, if you know your Rising & Moon sign, read those too. Especially refer to your Rising sign for relationship updates.
GEMINI
Happy Birthday to the most social, multi-sided, and mercurial sign of the Zodiac!
Never one to shy away from change, this year continues to have many surprises in the career department. However, you should find yourself more grounded and stable in your home environment. There still exists a push/pull dynamic between the two.
As you develop your personal foundation, be it a new house or family situation, or maybe just committing to a lease or mortgage, you will find the inner strength and stability to make serious changes in your profession. Ever more enlightened, you desire to work independently without the hassles of a regular schedule. You may also be embracing new and different thought ideas that fall outside the mainstream. You’ll not only want to incorporate your new wisdom into your livelihood, you’ll want to share it with the public as well!
This is an excellent year to advance your education, revisit your Spirituality, travel abroad, or study the laws of the Universe. Continue to be open-minded and embrace all that is new and different. Humanitarian efforts will be well rewarded.
Your personal finances are highlighted towards the end of June. Joint resources are in a period of major overhaul for a long time to come, but expect some forward progress to begin in August. You’ll need to pay attention to your money and spending habits this year.
You’re passionate about anything shared, especially when it comes to partnerships. Learn from your past and you may want to keep your romantic escapades on the ‘down low’.
Communication, networking, “buzzing” around and socializing are highly favored the last half of June and this is your month to shine!
This is a year to establish YOUR SELF so make the most of all opportunities!
ARIES
This month highlights finances, values, communication, transportation, community, and family.
Your ambition and networking skills are super charged this month and you’ll benefit financially from both!! Socializing still centers largely on Spirituality, education, and cultural pursuits. Friends can help you expand your intuition resulting in a mutual healing affect. Expect people from your past to start reappearing. There’s more secret surprises in store.
While your career continues to undergo major changes, your work environment and daily routine will be much more stable and secure resulting in overall better health. An office romance is possible too!

Mercury appears retrograde 3 times a year for approximately 3 weeks at a time. Here’s the kicker ~ I attach a 3 week shadow on each side making it a 9 week period altogether.
Not all of Mercury retrograde is negative, though. Yes, cell phones and computers can get glitchy; the light can come on in your car and you take it to the mechanic and nothing is wrong with it. ( I always tell people, unless it’s the break light or something important, wait until after the retrograde to get it checked because it just might fix itself!) Anything with communication and transportation can go haywire and if you’re a Gemini or a Virgo, ruled by Mercury, it can be even more frustrating.
You must really be careful of what you say and how you say it. Words can be misconstrued. It’s also a bad time to start anything new or sign important contracts or documents. The exception can be someone who is born with Mercury retrograde ~ it does not affect them as much.
So what can possibly be positive? Lots! Mercury retrograde is an excellent time to contact or hear from people from your past! Rather than solicit new clients, return to your sphere of influence. Reach out to someone you need to REconcile with. It’s an awesome time to REconnect. Go back and FINISH old projects so when the retrograde period is over you can begin new endeavors with a clean slate. It’s not the best time to get married but how about REmarried? Rather than plan a trip to some place new, why not REvisit a favorite destination? Different people have different opinions on traveling while Mercury is retrograde. If it can be avoided, it probably should. Some plans may have to be REscheduled. It’s almost impossible to hook up with new people but an excellent time to get together with old friends or plan a REunion! Just about anything you can put “RE” in front of works. Refurbish, redo, reconnect etc. The one exception can be remodeling. If it’s your first time doing it and contracts are involved, try and wait until after. Things will have to be REdone!
Don’t go to a new agency, partner, or job if you can help it. Try to connect new endeavors with the past if that makes sense. Also, if you’ve had a dilemma you may now suddenly have an epiphany. If you’ve been waiting for something or someone to arrive it could happen now!
We all have the ability to focus on the positive and make the most of trying situations. Use your energy wisely and constructively. Rather than branching out in new directions, go down a tried and true path. Be patient and really cautious with the words you choose and use. Drive extra carefully. Take time to REview. Think before you take action as your mind (Mercury) could be playing tricks on you! Stay as focused as possible and don’t let it run your life. Did Mercury retrograde bother you BEFORE you knew about it? We must deal with the past before we head into the future!

Mercury goes retrograde from the 6th - 30th but if you include the ‘shadow’ periods like I do we’re already in it. I will resurrect my Blog on Mercury Retrograde next week so you can see what it means to you.
Just a reminder, if you know your Rising & Moon sign, read those too. Especially refer to your Rising sign for relationship updates.
TAURUS
Happy Birthday to the most patient, persistent, and poised sign of the Zodiac!
This year sees you destined for high profile success. You have already reaped some of your rewards but things can really peak over the next few months! You are very much in the public eye, especially if you’re involved in Education, Law, Publishing, Foreign Affairs, the Arts, or Spirituality.
You now have the opportunity to transform these areas. As a result you could stir up some jealousy, mainly from hidden enemies who are intimidated by your new found power. Hold on to your hard earned position and relish in your accomplishments!
One of your challenges this year, and particularly this month, is to reconnect with yourself and feel you are worthy of a starring role! You are not done with all you can achieve but take time to enjoy what you’ve manifested through your own hard work and effort!
Don’t let loved ones discourage you from enjoying the spot light. At the same time, you’ll have to work at maintaining family obligations. Your inner conflict will be in finding the balance between work and home.
Because you are geared towards that which gives the most pleasure, your other push/pull dynamic lies between lovers, children, and play time versus the unpredictable nature of your friends. Interesting people continue to inspire you as they pop in and out of your life!
Romance is more stable and you can make forward progress after the 15th. Due to the fated nature of your love life at this time, affection may be a little more subdued. Your much younger or older lover may be looking to you for guidance or, alternatively, may be your anchor or stability now. Passion takes place behind the scenes. And secret affairs can really rock your world!
Whatever happens Taurus, this will be a year to remember!!
ARIES
Love, romance, passion, beauty, and self-reliance are all yours this month! Make the most of opportunities!
There’s a strong focus on finances which will need review. Mid month sees work endeavors finally get off the ground as you continue to revamp your career.
You’re extremely fortunate in group settings and through friends and co-workers. Fate has you aligning with those who share your spiritual and artistic ideals as your own enlightenment unfolds.
You’re wrapping up issues with lovers and children and can learn from the past.
Expect some surprises from behind the scenes.
GEMINI
Pay attention to your intuition this month and dreams that have connections to the past.
Friendship and social activities abound and one friend could become a lover. Network it!
There is still a battle between your career and home life. While your roots are strong, and become more secure mid month, your need for freedom and independence plays out on the job.
Extended family, neighbors, and on-line contacts are still touchy.
Vehicles may continue to need maintenance.
You can expect luck with long distance, educational, legal, spiritual, or artistic endeavors.

APRIL’S ASTROLOGICAL PREDICTIONS ~ Featuring Aries
By Kerry Fezza 2009Venus returns to direct motion on April 17th. Due to the ‘shadow’ period I still include the retrograde influence ~ meaning where love and money are concerned, there’s still ties to the past or past efforts. It’s still an excellent time to re-connect!!
ARIES
Happy Birthday to the most energetic, aggressive, and enthusiastic sign of the zodiac!
This year will see you reaching back and taking cues from your past as you manifest the future of your dreams!
The sign Aries represents the self and this year is very much about self-improvement and retrospection. You could be making big changes with your appearance and/or your health. Renewing that gym membership wouldn’t hurt. Neither would reviewing your eating habits. Your may have less than your usual amount of stamina, so yoga or martial arts might be preferred to vigorous work outs. A more divine approach to exercise can quell any anxiety or frustration and benefit your spiritual enlightenment. Pay attention to dreams and subconscious messages the 11th-24th.
Your friends will play a large role in your life this year and contribute to your destiny. You’ll want to align yourself with those who share the same beliefs. You may hook up with a new Spiritual group, or people who have an interest in law or publishing. Foreign or unusual company is very possible or those who share your love of global culture. Travel with groups or close friends is favored. You’re also lucky with professional contacts.
You could be resurrecting an old career and pursuing a lifelong desire. Whatever you do will take a lot of hard work and determination. You’ll want to feel passionate about and have control over your endeavors. You make your biggest contribution behind the scenes.
Things will begin to move forward the last half of the month. At that time your focus switches to personal finances and values ~ both of which could use a review!
2009 is geared towards success and accomplishment on a large scale. Increased popularity and recognition can create jealousy. Secret enemies can surprise you. Pay no mind ~ they’re just cowards who don’t share your drive and ambition. Own your own power! You’ll have more energy towards the end of April and feel like your usual competitive self.
Romance, children, and creative affairs are still stuck in the past. Karmic issues and past life connections continue to test your self-growth. You could definitely make a soul mate connection but it may be someone who has a lot of their own ‘stuff’ going on. Close personal relationships will be a direct reflection of yourself.
This can be a really spectacular year for you Aries if you take the time to put forth the effort ~
Be careful what you wish for you because you just might get what you want!

Venus goes retrograde on the 6th but if you include the ‘shadow’ periods like I do, we’re already in it. Venus retrograde can bring a past love back into your life ~ significantly for Aries, Libra, Sagittarius, and Taurus. It can sometimes be a ‘reversal’ of fortune so watch your pennies! Like Mercury retrograde it has to do with re-doing, reviewing, and re-connecting. Be careful initiating contracts/documents that involve large sums of money or starting significant projects.
Just a reminder, if you know your Rising & Moon sign, read those too. Especially refer to your Rising sign for relationship updates.
PISCES
Happy Birthday to the most enigmatic, charismatic, artistic, and empathetic sign of the Zodiac!
You’re continuing in a long period of spiritual enlightenment or “psychic” awakening ~ A better alternative to denial which can foster addiction. Your subconscious is dealing with old hurts by opening up your psyche! Pay attention to visions as they will guide you to your destiny. Your natural intuition has the ability to expand beyond your deepest dreams this year.
You’re spreading your wings on all different levels and will want the freedom to explore new horizons. This may entail using unusual or unconventional means ~ thinking outside the box! Mid month sees you with more energy and stamina to test your limits.
Your desire for independence, mind, body, and soul, can pose a challenge for partners or those closest to you. Significant others are dealing with their own issues but in much more traditional and conservative ways. They are in a period of retrospection and self-growth. As a result, they may seem emotionally unavailable. It’s just two different mind sets and life style perspectives this year.
Friendships and group dynamics are also going through a major transformation. Your close ties are experiencing deep, profound changes too. Because you are naturally sensitive to everyone’s vibrations, be careful not to pick up others troubles or energies. Offer them your wisdom and insight. It’s a good time to remain detached.
Your own unique and changing ways can pose problems with employers who might see you as unpredictable or unreliable. You’ll also want to pay attention to your health.
Financially, things continue to be beneficial for the next 3 months if you watch your spending. A review is in order and you may look to complete past projects for further income. You’ll also be taking stock of your personal values and things that are valuable to you.
Everything you desire this year is within the realm of your imagination!

HAPPY NEW YEAR ~ Again! Yes, now we’re off to a running start with the New Moon Solar Eclipse (Please see my separate blog for more info). January was a good month to catch up on all unfinished projects from 2008 and you should be ready to roll in February with your wish list or manifestation board.
Just a reminder, if you know your Rising & Moon sign, read those too. Especially refer to your Rising sign for relationship updates.
AQUARIUS
Happy birthday to the most enlightened, free-spirited, and intelligent sign of the zodiac! Your new year starts with a bang as the new moon solar eclipse occurred in Aquarius ~ now there’s some inspiration! You’re also lucky to have Jupiter, planet of luck and expansion, in your sign this year. You are beginning a 12 year cycle that could include furthering your education, enhancing your Spirituality, expanding overseas, or developing an interest in law or publishing. Whatever it is, don’t be afraid to make it happen!
This month you’ll have the extra energy, drive, and ambition to accomplish great things which will have an influence on the rest of your life. As you raise your own vibration you exalt those closest to you!
Partnerships always mirror your own self image. Important relationships could be made or broken depending on others ability to expand along with you or wallow in the past. You’re continuing to use your talents and creativity to heal past wounds and you’ll be attracting more dynamic souls who can keep up with you.
Be watchful for powerful enemies who lurk in the shadows. People who don’t have the motivation to succeed often sit around and stew in jealousy. You are more than able to outwit them!
Mid month as your intellect kicks into overdrive, your focus switches to income and values. This area remains unpredictable but due to your innovative ideas shouldn’t suffer too much. Your partner or sector of shared resources should offer some stability although past matters involving taxes, estates, inheritances, or investments needs recycling now. This can challenge your need for freedom and independence.
Your psyche is starting a long cycle of retrospection. Deep rooted concerns from the past can reveal profound insights. Issues need to be dealt with and purged. This should offset health problems.
You really shine this month in the areas of communication, transportation, family, and community. Buy a Taurus. Reach out and hug your neighbor. Put yourself out there and network, socialize, and be seen! This is your year!!
ARIES
Your popularity knows no bounds this month! Make the most of everything you have to offer and everything that’s offered to you. Your dreams are coming true!
Old issues with work, health, kids, and romance may persist but you’re looking and feeling good! You can inspire some and butt heads with others who are jealous of your good fortune.
Don’t let everyday concerns stifle your intuition. Revealing insights are best brought out through spiritual endeavors.
Take control of your career, and go for the gold!

HAPPY NEW YEAR! Yes, it is definitely time for new beginnings. Yet, with the Mercury Retrograde this month we have to revisit our past in order to build anew. (Please see my article on Mercury Retrograde for more info.)
A lot of this year might seem like we’re going back, one last time, to finally put things to rest. This is so we can start fresh with a clean slate!
2009 adds up to the number 11 ~ a very karmic year with mystical potentials. 11 adds up to the number 2, making this a year of relationships. You’ll see a lot of weddings this year, as in the year 2000.
This year Jupiter ~ the planet of luck, abundance and optimism, enters Aquarius ~ the sign of friendship, humanity, hopes, and wishes. It favors an unconventional approach! So think outside the box this year and reach out to others! One of my favorite sayings:
“If you want something you never had, do something you’ve never done!”
Call me toll free, anywhere in the world, 1-866-395-1340, for a Reading so you can know what special gifts 2009 has in store for you!
Love, luck, peace, and prosperity,
Kerry:)
CAPRICORN
Happy Birthday to the most sensible, cautious, and ambitious sign of the zodiac! You appreciate time is always on your side. Your patient nature will benefit you as you’re embarking on a 15 year cycle of personal transformation. Think of it like a butterfly getting ready to morph from its cocoon.
The spotlight is on you until the 20th when the focus shifts to your personal finances and values which you’ll be reviewing up until that date. There’s a lot going on here! You continue to wrestle with your spending habits and may have learned some hard lessons. Revert back to your frugal nature but feel free to invest in anything creative, artistic, spiritual, water, oil, gas, or entertainment related. Destiny favors your money over your partners or shared resources. Your joint financial sector needs careful scrutiny.
Positively, expect more income this year and a much brighter financial picture. You can benefit through legal, spiritual, travel, publishing, or education endeavors although things may seem to move slowly. Long distance travel is not favored unless it’s for work.
Communication, transportation, family, and community affairs flow smoothly, and are in harmony with your personality this month. Your energy is high and those close to you might feel sparks shooting out from you! You could be in store for some pleasant surprises ~ continue to expect the unexpected here as this area remains unpredictable.
Your mind is expanding in all sorts of new and different directions. You’re in a period of extreme enlightment and may run into opposition from those who live afar, especially in-laws. As you expand from your own conservative conscience, those who are more traditional may question your independent thought and new age ideas. It’s time to reassess those ties.
The intense, powerful, and deep changes you’re experiencing will have a profound effect on all your relationships. You desire a very nurturing, domestic partner to counter balance your ambitious nature. Reward their loyalty by being open and honest about all you’re going through. The same goes for your children and pets.
For singles, January is very positive for meeting someone in the neighborhood, at a social gathering, or online.
Use your energy wisely this month to get your year off to a running start!
