The Daily Astro for August 16, 2013 by Valerie Sylvester TODAY’S ASPECTS: The Moon starts the day in blithe Sagittarius, then moves into serious Capricorn at 11:25 PM EDT. There’s a Void-of-Course period from 1:32 PM EDT until the Moon enters Capricorn, so it’s a good “follow-up Friday” kind of day. With that Moon […] Continue reading
The Daily Astro for August 1, 2013 by Valerie Sylvester TODAY’S ASPECTS: The Moon remains in Gemini, but since it’s Void-of-Course after 12:48 PM EDT, it’s probably better for editing (“get me rewrite!”), course-correction and reorganization than for blazing new trails. This is intensified because most of today’s aspects are inconjuncts and squares […] Continue reading
The Daily Astro for June 17, 2013 by Valerie Sylvester TODAY’S ASPECTS: Just another Manic Monday! Yesterday featured Chiron stationing retrograde in Pisces. So there we were, enjoying a quiet Sunday by the lake, relaxing and absorbing the ambiance, when suddenly we spot a dead body floating in the water. I’m […] Continue reading
The Daily Astro for May 20, 2013 by Valerie Sylvester TODAY’S ASPECTS: Today’s Keyword: Homeostasis.

The Daily Astro for April 8, 2013 by Valerie Sylvester TODAY’S ASPECTS: I dragged myself out of bed at 6 AM EDT today, but it’s hours later and my brain is just now (sort of) waking up. So goes this split-personality day that begins with the Moon in Pisces. The Moon in Pisces […] Continue reading
The Daily Astro for February 22, 2013 by Valerie Sylvester TODAY’S ASTRO: We’re doing the Void-of-Course dance for part of today as the Moon doesn’t enter Leo until 5:12 PM EST. Since Mercury’s also set to retrograde tomorrow, the best use of today’s energy pattern is to catch up or finish things you […] Continue reading
The Daily Astro for November 21, 2012 The word of the day is “WOOZY”. At 11:34 AM EST, the Moon in Pisces squares Jupiter in Gemini, so our inclination is to expand, enlarge and merge, aided and abetted by the Sun entering Sagittarius at 4:51 PM EST. Our eyes are on the horizon, we’re […] Continue reading

The Daily Astro for August 29, 2012 The Moon is in Aquarius today. It’s an interesting “split” day, with two sets of aspects and a nodal shift. Early in the day, the Moon parallels Mars and Venus is contra-parallel Pluto, which can impart a jittery intensity as an undercurrent for today. The Moon’s nodes move […] Continue reading
