We begin by discussing all the ASTRO NEWS YOU CAN USE from this past week, how it's played out, & what's on the horizon as we make our way through this month's lunar cycle which began with the Taurus New Moon square to the Mars/Pluto opposition on April 27.Since Venus's entrance into Aries April 30 (until June 6), we've seen some “let them eat cake” resistance to consumer prices heating up due to pending tariff wars begun by the U.S. Government. And the Venus/Neptune conjunction in Aries May 2 illustrated a likewise laissez faire attitude toward the U.S. Constitution's Fifth Amendment by President Donald Trump who, when asked on Meet The Press if he agreed “that citizens and noncitizens in the United States were entitled to due process,” was less than comforting.“I don't know,” Mr. Trump replied. “I'm not, I'm not a lawyer. I don't know.” This as we waxed toward the first quarter monthly lunar “crisis in action” square of the Leo Moon to the Taurus Sun May 4, illustrating the vague nonchalance yet recalcitrance of a stubborn leader (Taurus Sun) to take responsibility for the due process rights of individuals (Leo Moon) under U.S. law. Keep in mind that our short-term monthly mission since April 27's Taurus New Moon has been to plant seeds that reflect our more present-day values--as opposed to old, outdated, no longer applicable ones, like say, that trickle-down economics is the way to go, lol. Or, that corporate & billionaire money & power are more important than individual peoples' health & well-being. You know, stuff like that… However, the major point of this month's lunation is that once we discover (or rediscover) our soul's true, lasting values, we may have to fight for them, as per the Mars opposite Pluto signature at the Taurus New Moon.Meanwhile Pluto's station retrograde on May 4 (until October 14) provides us all the perfect opportunity to dig deeply into our psyches to better discover our soul's true, lasting values. In doing so, we discover our shadow sides and bring them out into the light to be forever vanquished. The end result is that of greater personal empowerment, yeah!We look too at the upcoming entrance of Mercury into Taurus on May 10, & the already anticipated slowdown of both travel & trade. Ports on the West Coast are already reporting fewer ships docking there from places like China, a redux of the pandemic era's import shortages from only a few short years ago. Likewise, tourism to America and spending on travel within America, is down and forecast to stay that way for the foreseeable future.As we wax toward the May 12 Scorpio Full Moon which conjoins Juno, the archetypal symbol of partnership, & opposes the Taurus Sun, Uranus, & goddess of health Hygeia, we've already seen a few surprising firsts. On April 8—after a surprisingly quick conclave in Rome that lasted less than two full days—the first American-born Pope was chosen to lead the world's 1.4 billion Catholics. In addition to being the first American to become pope, Pope Leo XIV is also the first member of the Augustinian Order, a Catholic religious order founded in 1244. He attended St. Augustine Seminary near Holland, Michigan, and spent much of his career as a missionary in Peru.“Peace be with you,” Pope Leo XIV greeted his new followers, & we await to see if this is, indeed, going to be true, as he will be tasked with confronting difficult decisions about the church's direction, including the issue of greater inclusion.In addition, the inclusion of Hygeia in this lunar equation, partnered with Uranus in the sign of the physical body (read: Taurus) may signal a rapid change in the world's health situation. Think of the starving children in Gaza (& other places deprived of food & medical care due to war and the now defunct services from USAID), & how U.S. farmers' crops rot in silos due to increased tariffs on importing nations. Then there's the fact that Mercury square Pluto at this lunation brings a measure of obsessiveness to the U.S. House of Representatives' struggle still to come up with a governmental budget reconciliation bill by Memorial Day that doesn't throw 77 million people off of Medicaid—especially in GOP districts. And that's just so corporate billionaires can reduce their taxes under a proposed extension of President Trump's 2017 corporate tax reduction due to expire by end 2025. And that's not even mentioning financial cuts already made to Veteran's benefits & potential cuts to Medicare, Social Security, etc., & the loss of medical benefits of laid off or fired federal workers under unelected billionaire Elon Musk's DOGE. We discuss the sticking point of state & local tax caps (read: reducing family's tax deductions) bandied about in the House now, too…There's also the implications of transiting Jupiter in Gemini's pending mutable square to the transiting Virgo South Node & Pisces North Node as all things Jupiter-related have made their way into the news recently. Law, higher education, foreign travel (read: immigration), media, & religion—of which the new first time American Pope's election is but one subject under Jupiter's domain—are all prominent now, especially between May 15-28 as both the Mean & True Nodes are squared exact by Jupiter during this period. Keep in mind, too, that more surprises are ahead--not only at the Scorpio Full Moon opposite the Sun & Uranus in Taurus May 12—but between now and the Sun's exact conjunction to Uranus on May 17.

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking for the latest podcast discussing revelations--since the January 29 Aquarius New Moon cycle & Uranus's station direct—that visions of ideological fundamentalism & practical reality don't mix!It's clear now that the February 14 Leo Full Moon has awakened many to the fact that the Aquarius New Moon planted seeds allowing us to gain a new perspective. And that Uranus direct has led to the revelatory aha moments for which it's known by the time the Leo Full Moon revealed how ideological ideas of “perfection” are difficult to manifest in the real world & that the sudden changes ruled by Uranus can cause trauma.And that unconventional government oversight based on idealistic notions by unelected people placed in positions of power now hold our future security in their hands. Further, the Leo Full Moon's squares to Uranus in Taurus which opposed Juno (partner) in Scorpio resulted in the breaking apart of established partnerships in favor or new ones—especially those deemed more financially rewarding. By now, however, since Mercury entered Pisces on February 14 & the Sun followed on February 18--& as we waxed toward the February 20 third-quarter monthly lunar square (which astrologer Dane Rudhyar called the “crisis in consciousness” period)—we've understood how rapidly caused shock & trauma result in confusion. Further, by the time Sagittarius Moon squared the Pisces Sun & Mercury squared Jupiter February 20, we realized people (Moon=the people) had journeyed to their U.S. national & state Capitols (Sagittarius) to protest. Protest what? That the ”pie in the sky” visions of the ideological fundamentalists begun earlier this month now in charge of the U.S. Government have caused both individuals--and groups of people—actual harm through loss (Pisces Sun.) Now, as we approach next week's Mars station retrograde in Cancer on February 23 & Mars begins to gather speed—in combination with this past month's Aquarian awakening--we begin to realize that this retrograde period brought up from our unconscious what's really most important to us on a deeper soul level. AND that THIS is what's rousing us out of our apathy to fight back against. As we begin to identify with our “inner warrior” we'll experience the Pisces New Moon on February 27 with its waxing square to Jupiter & its pending trines to Mars, which the Sun completes on March 2 & 7, respectively. Greater empathy for those suffering in the "there, but for the grace of God, go I" are the seeds we are called to plant then. Meanwhile, Venus will station retrograde in Aries on March 1, while Mercury moves into Mars-ruled Aries March 3, as the U.S. Congress continues to argue over whether billionaires deserve additional tax cuts reliant on financial cuts to services for the average American citizen.Join Sheri at https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking when a new podcast drops Friday, February 21, for more Astro News You Can Use on all of this, including a look at where Elon Musk's chart triggers Donald Trump's Mercury/Neptune/Eris ability to create the image of a successful businessman capable of running a nation when what he's mostly proved successful at is creating chaos…See you soon! Namaste...

Discussion includes how this past week's Leo Full Moon exposed the plight of individuals against ideological notions of “a more perfect union” as the ongoing U.S. Pluto return reveals how corporate greed is rotting governmental foundations from the inside out.Pluto=other peoples' money=taxpayer dollars. Pluto also=joint resources=federal loans & grants. In Uranus-ruled Aquarius, which Pluto will transit through until March 2043, it's about transformation of joint resources due to ideological notions of a “more perfect union.”But Aquarius is an “of the people, by the people, for the people,” humanitarian archetypal notion. The kind that represents humanitarian advances in technology that make life better for us all. However, given that the effects of U.S. Pluto return--triggered initially @27'33” Capricorn in 2022—will last until about 2036 if history proves educational—it's highly likely this period will culminate as a time of “power to the people.”It's just that it's going to take a while to get there and it won't happen without a fight. However, the signs of an infected U.S. governmental system—based on financial policies such as more deregulation, fiscal austerity, trickle down economics of the “starve the beast” kind—have burst through into consciousness during the new Trump administration.The February 9 Sun/Mercury conjunction in Aquarius, squares by the Aquarius Mercury & Sun to sudden change maker Uranus on February 10 & 11, & the February 12 Leo Full Moon, respectively, have brought alarm & consternation, but also additional clarity as these aspects highlight disenfranchisement of the individual.In addition, as the news continues to fly so fast and furiously that it's hard to keep up, one fact stands out in stark relief. And that is that technology matters more than people. That's because non-elected folks like billionaire Elon Musk continue to use AI to parse out what the tech bros describe as “waste & fraud” in the American Treasury Department's systems of payments.With no oversight, they seem to be the only ones—along with newly appointed billionaires who now head major governmental cabinet posts—in charge of the U.S. payment system. And that includes not only humanitarian medical & food aid both at home & abroad, but Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, student loans, and much more.When oligarch wannabes steer the ship, it's becoming easier to see that the final destination is NOT enhanced people power, but rather corporate power uber alles, which means “above everything else.”Will the upcoming entrance of Neptune into Aries on March 30 save us? What about when Saturn enters Aries on May 26 and the two planets run side by side in 2025 before they exact conjoin at the 0° Aries point on February 20, 2026. And how about the upcoming trine of Uranus—after it enters Gemini July 7—to Pluto in Aquarius, the effects of which we'll begin to feel in 2025 and which will last through to 2029.Join us for a deeper discussion on all of this & to hear more Astro News You Can Use as Mercury enters Pisces Feb 14 & the Sun does the same Feb 18, & Mars gets ready to station direct on Feb 23 @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking! 

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM FOR THIS WEEK'S “KARMIC EVOLUTION'S ASTROLOGICALLY SPEAKING PODCAST which discusses how this month's lunar cycle & America's Pluto Return have revealed America's shadow side energies…Do the results of the November 5 U.S. presidential election—which occurred during the early waxing period of November 1's Scorpio New Moon—prove that America's projections onto winner Donald Trump represent America's Pluto Return, a time of the death of democracy to be followed by some kind of rebirth?This podcast examines the journey of America's Pluto return, which technically began when transiting Pluto came within a degree of its natal 2nd House place at 27-degrees 33-minutes of Capricorn on May 21, 2021. This followed the January 6, 2021, storming of the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., which marks the beginning of America's transformation.We explore the history of the birth of America through the lens of the beginning of the Revolutionary War—fought for freedom from the tyranny of the British monarchy/king--& the U.S. Sibly chart's July 4, 1775, Declaration of Independence.Along the way we discuss how this recent election has thrust a large portion of the American population into shock & disbelief of the PTSD kind. And how, given Pluto's archetypal association with the necessity of a breakdown in order to breakthrough--or the alchemical process of death leading to rebirth—we are in the first stages of dealing with the potential death of democracy.We explore too Carl Jung's definition of the Plutonian alchemical process which begins by consciously recognizing our shadow projections. Often a shocking revelation, this provokes the break down all the way through to until we reach the stage of of individuation & ultimately what Jung called “authentic personification.” That means engaging in the process of becoming--then ultimately BEING--who we really came here to be.This process is neither easy nor painless, as history has already proven. And it's often change that begets more change. That is what revolutions are born from. People take the streets when their lives are personally impacted.As Saturn stations direct once again on November 15—the same day of the Taurus Full Moon which aligns itself with Uranus retrograde in Taurus (signifying a sudden potential change of heart) & opposes the Scorpio Sun—will we eventually recognize the need to release this shadow side energy? Or will circumstances have to get far worse as the shadow energy expands until some kind of future action is taken?We are in the period of the birth of America, which spanned from 1775 to 1789 during which period a war was fought, independence was gained, a Constitution written, a president inaugurated, and a justice system incorporated through the seating of a Supreme Court.In essence, if history is our guide, America's Pluto return has just begun. When transiting Uranus moves into Gemini July 7, 2025, & begins to conjoin its natal place at 8-degrees 55-minutes of Gemini in the U.S. Sibly chart in 2027, history has proved the U.S. tends to enter wars. First, of course, the American Revolution; second, the American Civil War; and third, World War II. These have tended to occur as each 84-year cycle of Uranus ended and a new one began.This podcast reminds us all that America has shown its true face: that of indifference to the inequities inherent in its democratic system of governance. Racism, misogyny, & xenophobia are not new here. They have simply been hidden from view all this time within the mainstream of society.This current Pluto Return is bringing these hidden shadow energies to the forefront & revealing them for all to see. So, when a deportation crew comes for our neighbor, will we remain silent? When they come for our teachers & librarians will we remain silent? When they come for our governor or senator or representative, will we remain silent?And when they then come for YOUR undocumented spouse, will YOU remain silent? When they come for your Arab-American son-in-law, will you remain silent? And when they come for YOU, who will be left? And so it goes, as history repeats itself—or at least rhymes--over and over and over again.While initially shocking & depressing for many of us, this recent election will undoubtedly spark change--possibly through a societal revolution that leads to war, if that is the only way to effect long-term future change. That's Pluto, my friends…And while that may seem to some far-fetched and to others far off, the seeds have been planted and it's this Scorpio monthly lunar cycle that cries out to us to plant the seeds that help us recognize the TRUTH about what America has become.And the November 15 Taurus New Moon--since our shadows have now been revealed--will beg us to jettison our previously hidden hatreds, jealousies, & perceived need for revenge & retribution against “THEM.” Because as Walt Kelly's character Pogo the possum revealed long ago: “We have met the enemy, and he is US.”Listen to more Astro News You Can Us in this week's podcast @ KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM which drops today November 8 at 11 a.m. PT & 2 p.m. ET!

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM for this week's “Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking” podcast that drops today & learn how the Scorpio New Moon moves us to plant seeds that empower us to TRUST ourselves!First we look back at what's been revealed to us with stark clarity this past week since Mercury in Scorpio opposed Taurus Rx in Uranus October 30. Was this aspect of sudden shocking & surprising statements the real “October surprise” leading up to this year's U.S. presidential election? We'll discuss whether, as Mars in Cancer waxes toward its exact opposition to Pluto in Capricorn November 3, the angry racist, xenophobic, & misogynist rhetoric made by a presidential candidate & his supporters will change the outcome of the November 5 U.S. presidential election. This may prove true as Uranus retrograde in Taurus asks us to continue to review & re-evaluate our basic values, especially now based on what prominent people say. History often rhymes, & the current atmosphere bears close similarity to the “October surprise” from October 28, 2016, when a late in the game announcement by then FBI Director James Comey changed the direction of the November 8 election's outcome that year.      In addition, this podcast compares the astrology of the GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump's October 27 rally at NYC's Madison Square Garden with the pro-Nazi rally held there on February 20, 1939, & find some not so subtle similarities. Hint: This time transiting Mars in Cancer is opposing both transiting Pluto AND the U.S. natal Pluto in the Sibly chart's 8th & 2nd Houses, respectively. Back in 1939, transiting Pluto in Cancer in the U.S.'s 8th H opposed not only its natal 2nd H position but also transiting Juno in Capricorn there, the goddess asteroid of “the wife” or partnership. Perfect scenario for pissing off those who may formerly have supported you, eh?We look also at how Trump's continuing misogynist rhetoric, including the Mars opposite Pluto type recent statement that he will protect women “whether they like it or not” will spawn a “hell that no fury like a woman scorned” tsunami at the polls. This is entirely possible, now that Trump's 3rd H progressed Scorpio Moon is less than a degree away from an exact square to his natal 12th House Leo Pluto. The simple definition? “Trouble with women!”Meanwhile, the question becomes whether we've heeded the October 2 Libra New Moon solar eclipse's request to plant seeds that blossom into us all becoming our own best partner before seeking external ones. If so, now the Scorpio New Moon tasks us to reject Libra's indecisiveness & instead to go deep into trusting our own inner truth. What does that mean? Well, the message now at this Scorpio New Moon is to plant seeds that can blossom into a greater sense of self-empowerment. That comes through the Mercury opposite Uranus revelations of October 30 that helped spark a deeper understanding & greater consciousness that a strong sense of true inner trust brings with it freedom of choice. We're aided in this endeavor to expand our consciousness when Mercury in Scorpio trines Mars in Cancer & then enters Sagittarius November 2. The exact Mars/Pluto opposition is followed by Venus in Sagittarius's opposition to Jupiter in Gemini November 3, which is also when Mars enters loud & proud Leo later that day.Venus opposite Jupiter brings up the issue of how much is too much & whether those who have more (you know, like billionaires Elon Musk & Jeff Bezos) should share more with those who do not—or at least not accuse the have nots of being lazy good for nothing loafers. You know, those who suck at the teat of government, as former President Ronald Reagan was fond of saying while promoting his austerity-oriented cuts to federal funding. The Scorpio Sun's November 4 trine to Saturn Rx in Pisces --which is slowing down now to station direct on November 15—allows us a clearer mental picture of who we are & what we do in order to develop the self-discipline necessary to accomplish our goals.With that in mind, this podcast explores the transits to the U.S. Sibly chart on election day, November 5, when the Moon moves that morning from fiery adventurous Sagittarius to earthy practical Capricorn as we stand at the threshold of this most important juncture in U.S. history.  How that will play exactly remains to be seen, but know that the “hell hath no fury like a woman scorned Mars/Pluto opposition is still very much in play. As is the square of transiting Saturn retrograde in Pisces in the U.S. 4th House of home, security, tradition, family, nurturing, compassion, memory, & habit to the U.S. Sagittarius/Gemini Ascendant/Descendant axis.Will Americans' relationship with the presidential candidates be “severely tested” now, as astrologer Rob Hand describes this aspect in his book “Planets In Transit.” Or will it result in ”a serious breakdown in your relationships because of misplaced priorities in the past or because of associating with people who were wrong for you in terms of your personal goals & needs.”   Great question, and a good one to keep in mind as some people are still deciding who to vote for. I'll leave everyone with this to ponder now: Is it true that wise ol' Saturn does always know best in the end? Tune in to KARMIC EVOLUTION DO COM starting today for this week's podcast & all the Astro News You Can Use!

 JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM for a new podcast that drops October 25 & reviews this month's lunar cycle—as we head toward the November 1 Scorpio New Moon!We'll trace Sun/Pluto cycle of empowerment/disempowerment in the charts of the two U.S. presidential candidates as it reached its waning square just before the Sun moved into Scorpio October 22. We discuss also if this election's October surprise involves the word “fascist” since the revealing (Mercury's in Scorpio now!) of a certain past president's “fascist tendencies” at the third-quarter lunar square of the Leo Moon to the Scorpio Sun October 24.It pays now to remember that the Libra New Moon solar eclipse on October 2 asked us to plant seeds that could grow into a stronger sense of how to become our own best partner without the need to rely on others, especially if/when those relationships prove unsustainable and/or toxic.The Aries Full Moon October 17 then asked us to release any of these partnerships that no longer sustain us in healthy ways and asked us to continue to think and act independently, free from the influence of others.And now--as we reached the “crisis in consciousness” third-quarter lunar square October 24--& we're eleven days from one of the most important elections in U.S. history, we're faced with taking what we've learned since the Libra New Moon on October 2, which carried the them of loss & separation. Can we shed “old patterns & beliefs that no longer serve our highest good,” as renowned astrologer Dane Rudhyar described this portion of the lunar cycle? Especially as these old patterns relate to this month's lunar cycle theme of partnership?In short, it's decision time! Aiding us during this lunar cycle's waning period Venus in Sagittarius's square to retrograde Saturn in Pisces on October 28, as we grapple with what Rob Hand in his “Planets In Transit” book calls the necessity to “separate yourself from the illusions that run through even the best relationships & to look at what is really there.”Given that voting is done in secret, a nod to Scorpionic archetypal energy—it's not a bad idea to heed Hand's advice be “have awareness of yourself as an independent, even isolated human being, realizing that no one can get inside of you and feel what you feel.This may, in fact, be heightened by the Mercury in Scorpio opposition to retrograde Uranus in Taurus by October 30, followed by Mercury trine to retrograde Neptune in Pisces October 31 & the November 1 Scorpio New Moon.The Mercury/Uranus opposition October 30 may result in revelatory “secrets” coming at us rapidly—causing shock & surprise which cause us “aha!” moments. Perhaps the October surprise period will not have ended until then with the U.S. presidential election then only seven days way, who knows?However, the Mercury/Neptune trine that follows on October 31 may result in a more empathic mindset; one where we feel more sympathetic toward others and “genuinely want to aid anyone who needs your help…” according to Rob Hand.Hence, by the time we reach the Scorpio New Moon on November 1, we'll be ready to plant seeds that allow us to better understand how we really FEEL deep down in our bones about who we can trust. That's because we'll be fine-tuning the deep bonded trust we have in ourselves.As Polonius said in Shakespeare's “Hamlet”: “This, above all: to thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man.”Don't miss Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking podcast @ KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM--or any of your favorite podcast stations—which drops October 25!

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM for this week's “Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking !” podcast to discuss this & more Astro News You Can Use!Jupiter's station retrograde at 21'20” Gemini on October 9 will slow our roll a bit despite Jupiter's natural expansive quality. That's because it's energy will begin to contract as it slows down even further until it stations direct again on February 4, 2025, at 11'17” Gemini.Meanwhile, Jupiter joins Uranus retrograde in Taurus (since September 1) as it calls us to review whether or not the future plans we've envisioned are actually possible to manifest in concrete form. Together, Uranus & Jupiter retrograde call us to review, rethink, reanalyze, and re=plan our future. Meanwhile, the October 13 Sun/Jupiter Rx trine may temporarily provide us with an extra shot of enthusiasm because it can allow us to see the entirety of the bigger picture. We might keep this in mind when afterward our plans begin to seem to come to a halt and as Uranus Rx has already been calling us to replace idealism with realism to ensure any plan's future success. Meanwhile, Pluto's October 11 station direct at 29'39” Capricorn symbolizes the last gasp of Pluto's journey through Saturn-ruled Capricorn since its last transit there between 1762 and 1778. So it will be a while before this transit occurs again, lol…Pluto's about empowerment. The recent set of eclipses—who's energies are still in effect now--are about loss and separation. And the Fall lunar and solar eclipses (September 17 & October 2, respectively) call us still to break free from the past karmic habit of clinging to relationships that no longer serve us—most especially those that actually harm us…These themes of self-empowerment within partnerships echo throughout both eclipses as well as through the Mercury's entrance into Scorpio October 13, the Libra Sun square Mars in Cancer & Venus opposite Uranus October 14, & the upcoming Aries New Moon on October 17. Tune into KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM for all this & more Astro News You Can Use when this week's podcast drops October 11!

 JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM for this week's “Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking” podcast which discusses how the recent September 17 Pisces Full Moon lunar eclipse asks us to release—between now and the October 2 Libra New Moon solar eclipse--criticizing & labeling others as “imperfect.”And how Virgo's shadow side—when our own self-critical nature is unconsciously projected onto others we deem “less than”—can result in inequality, blame, & the kind of harm resulting from stochastic terrorism—unless we can release such shadows as this cycle wanes between now and October 2's Libra New Moon.We look at how the current monthly lunar cycle—begun at the September 2 Virgo New Moon—has progressed with the energy of these Fall 2024 eclipses & their theme of loss and separation. In addition, we explore the deeper meaning of this month's Virgo New Moon lunar cycle as it begins to wane, and how we're asked to jettison now any self-criticism that keeps us from being of service to ourselves in a loving accepting way—flaws and all.It's only when we can accept & come to love our own imperfections that we can feel the same way about others.We then look where these eclipses fall in the chart of current GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump & explore how they trigger his natal T-square responsible for his past successful image building & whether this image is dissolving now.We discuss also whether the two recent assassination attempts—in part related to transiting Uranus in Taurus's squares to Trump's natal Leo Mars on July 13 and September 15—might signify the symbolic dissolution (Pisces) transformation/death/end (read: Pluto) of his political campaign rather than his literal passing.We look also at the Sun's thematic entrance into peace, harmony, and equality related Libra at the September 22 fall equinox, & that day's Venus/Pluto cardinal square accompanied by Venus's entrance into Scorpio. Clearly issues of power, sex, money resources & joint resources (read: other peoples' money), & trust have already made an appearance within the collective.We have the unsuccessful attempt by U.S. GOP House majority speaker Mike Johnson's to pass a governmental funding continuing resolution bill tied to another that demands proof of citizenship to vote in federal elections. Currently, there is no factual proof such legislation is necessary as the federal government requires only a “yes” or “no” on its voter registration form for federal elections & hardly any cases of illegals voting have surfaced through the years.Join us for all this astro news you can use & more, including the September 24 third-quarter monthly lunar square of the Cancer Moon to the Libra Sun, Virgo Mercury's opposition to Pisces Neptune (an echoe of the Sun/NE opposition perfected on September 20), & the messenger god's move into Venus-ruled Libra September 26.See you at KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM!

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM when today's “Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking! This week's podcast delves into the deeper meaning of Uranus retrograde in Taurus from September 1, 2024, until January 30, 2025, and the need to recognize future potential that's actually possible, as opposed to an ideal that lacks practical application and thus practical manifestation.Like the sky god of Greek mythology who abhorred the look of his children and sought to stuff them back in their mother Gaia's womb until she rebelled and had Saturn overthrow him through castration, we cannot stop progress. But neither can we manifest ideologies that represent “perfection” without recognizing the reality of practical roadblocks.This Uranus retrograde period invites us to review what's actually obtainable in terms of the future and what is not. Ideological visions which lack a physical container will require some kind of adjustment if we wish to actually manifest our future plans.That this is true now becomes apparent when we recognize that the recent Virgo New Moon from September 2 asked us to plant seeds the remind us that “perfect is the enemy of the good,” and that we are “perfect in all our imperfections.” Acceptance of these facts help us tailor our expectations of making the world a “perfect” place into more reality-based future expectations.Meanwhile, Pluto's return to Capricorn from September 1 to November 19 reminds us of the last dying gasp of “business as usual” in terms of corporate interests trumping the rights of individual consumers. And, since Saturn stations direct in Pisces on November 15, the period between now and then urges us to get our act together so we may move forward with reality-based plans when Pluto direct returns to Aquarius for the long term on November 19.Join us for all of this and more Astro News You Can Use, including a deeper dive into current transits like the Mars' entrance into Cancer until November 3, the Sun's opposition to Saturn Rx September 6/7, Mercury's entrance into Virgo September 9, the September 10/11 first quarter monthly lunar square of the Sagittarius Moon to the Virgo Sun, & the Sun's square to Jupiter September 12.We take a look also at where this current Uranus retrograde falls in the charts of Israel and Benjamin Netanyahu who's efforts to try to win an unwinnable war—according to all of their military generals and other experts—have become like tilting at windmills, especially since it's left a wake of dead bodies behind who might otherwise have been saved.Join us at KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM—or any of your favorite podcast stations—for this deeper drive into Uranus retrograde and when is the infamous “October surprise” period leading up to the November 5 U.S. presidential election!

AND, how this factors into Uranus's station retrograde & Pluto retrograde's reentrance into Capricorn September 1 as we head toward Monday's September 2 Virgo New Moon!We look at all of this through the lens of U.S. Silby birth chart & the current U.S. political situation, especially as we head toward the home stretch of the upcoming November 5 U.S. presidential election during the nation's currently ongoing Chiron configuration return.We explore how the wounds incurred at the inception of this nation need healing still today, as they include the lack of TRUE equality for all citizens--including first & foremost Native Americans & African Americans, women, & immigrants—despite a U.S. Declaration of Independence that declares “all men equal.”Despite this Declaration's statement: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their Creator, with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness,” it's clear nearly 250 years later that this hasn't proven true for ALL.Though evident throughout U.S. history, it's during the U.S. Pluto, return which began in 2022, how many are not included in the “all men” category (i.e., those mentioned above.) And how this fact has been rising to the surface of the national political scene as the nation contemplates electing its first female Black & South Asian president.Join us for this detailed astro examination of the meaning of the currently ongoing U.S. Sibly's Chiron return, Uranus's current station retrograde from September 1, 2023-January 30, 2025, & Pluto's last gasp journey through Capricorn from September 1 through November 19.AND a look at the September 2 Virgo Moon's call to plant seeds that lead to establishing regular rituals to improve our health via our daily routine & how to be of service to ourselves so that we can then provide service to others.And how in the U.S. Sibly chart this lunation occurs in the 10th House of the wider world & reputation but opposes transiting Saturn retrograde in Pisces in the 4th House, squares transiting Jupiter in Gemini in the 7th House & the Sagittarius/Gemini Ascendant/Descendant axis. We explore the themes of mother/father versus relationships, along with the tensions inherent in this lunation's opposition to restrictive Saturn & square to expansionist Jupiter.Join us for all this & more “Astro News You Can Use!” @ KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM or any of your favorite podcast stations starting Friday, August 30, any time after 11 a.m. PT & 2 p.m.!

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM FOR THIS WEEK'S PODCAST which includes a look at how we're being asked now to release any self-aggrandizement & replace it with caring about others.All this & more Astro News You Can Use at Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking podcast on any of your favorite podcast stations! This podcast includes a deep dive into where this month's lunar cycle's Leo New Moon fell in the charts of the two U.S. presidential candidates & where this Aquarius Full Moon falls--& what this portends.For example, we note how GOP candidate Donald Trump has been experiencing for some time now that transiting Pluto's been causing others to adjust how they view his potential return to the White House, & how transiting Uranus is resulting in sudden changes to his reputation out in the world.  Likewise, we note where the beginning of this month's lunar cycle fell in his chart, & how to interpret this based on what he's being asked to release now at this Aquarius Full Moon. If the word “self-aggrandizement” doesn't say it all, then I don't know what does, lol…In addition, given the current buzz about Trump's declining mental acuity, we review how transiting Neptune has affected this from the astrological point of view. And that astrology proves that Trump has, in fact, been experiencing mental decline since May 2019. Why? Because that's when transiting Neptune in his 7th H of partnership squared his natal 10th House Gemini Uranus--causing him to be somewhat out of touch with reality, as evidenced by his “big lie” following his 2020 presidential election loss. Transiting Neptune then went on to square his nodal axis spanning his 4th to 10th Houses—the effects of which this podcast defines in greater detail. Transiting Neptune then squared his 4th House Sagittarius Moon, & finally his 10th Gemini Sun, & all of this took place between 2019 & 2023. The proof is in the pudding, as they say, & it's clear from the astrological point of view—especially since frictional Neptune aspects can often result (especially for someone in their seventies) in “confusion, illusion, & delusion”--that Trump has become more and more cognitively impaired during this time period.Meanwhile, we take a similar look at Kamala Harris's chart, her sudden rise to the democratic candidacy since July 21's Capricorn Full Moon, & her subsequent rise in popularity. We note how this Aquarius Full Moon makes positive aspects to her natal Sun & Moon, how it lands on her natal Mars/Saturn/Jupiter T-square & how transiting Uranus liberates  her now to break free from old constraints--but in accordance with her natal slow & steady wins the race astrologically-oriented personality. Join us for all this and more Astro News You Can Use at KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM, & we'll see you there!

 JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM WHEN TODAY'S “KARMIC EVOLUTION'S ASTROLOGICALLY SPEAKING!”  for all of this & more Astro News You Can Use!First we review what went down during the balsamic period of last month's lunar cycle, then discuss the August 4 Leo New Moon & Mercury's station retrograde in Virgo from the lens of the upcoming American presidential election.Could it be that Mercury retrograde in Virgo asks us to reevaluate our attitude toward whether or not a woman can be president? Especially given that Virgo's traditionally an archetypal sign representing, among other things, the girl next door & “the virgin” (which of course applies to females and not males in this patriarchal world we've been living in for so long.)Next we look at the energies inherent in the upcoming new synodic cycle when Mars meets Jupiter in Gemini & Mercury retrograde reenters Leo August 14. Will our gung ho attitude be slowed by Mercury Rx AND frustrated since Mars also squares Saturn in Pisces late on August 14/early August 15?And might this frustration relate to resistance (Saturn) to the motivation (Mars) to electing a female as the head of state here in the U.S.? And might such resistance prove frustrating to many who support electing the first American female head of state? As always, however, Mars/Saturn frustration is best relieved by slow, concentrated, hard work!Next we turn our attention to the upcoming repeat of Mercury retrograde in Leo square to Uranus in Taurus & the Leo Sun's conjunction with Mercury retro in Leo—on August 18. We might remember this Mercury direct square to Uranus just after the July 21 Capricorn Full Moon & how the world was rocked by President Joe Biden's sudden announcement he was dropping out of the presidential race.So, what will it be this time? And might it be related to the scare the world felt when the stock market took a sudden dive on August 2 (given that Venus squared Uranus that day) and then continued its downward movement as Venus quincunxed Pluto August 5 (signifying the need for an adjustment?)So, might the August 18 Mercury Rx/Uranus square & Leo Sun/Mercury Rx conjunction lead us to a repeat of some sort of sudden, possibly shocking announcement? Perhaps related to the announcement of an interest rate drop by U.S. Federal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell BEFORE the expected date in September--especially since Venus squares Jupiter August 18 too?Join us at KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM as we explore all of these astro energies as they relate to the news, and more! Especially as we look also at the deeper meaning of the current Mercury retrograde cycle (which ends August 24) as he begins to enter the fire element for the rest of the year and beyond!Are we tasked to ask ourselves now—as renowned Jungian astrologer Erin Sullivan suggests in her book “Retrograde Planets, Traversing the Inner Landscape”--“How can my inspiration create my future?” Much food for thought so be sure to join us & have a listen as we take a deeper dive into all this & more ! Namaste…

We look at the astro-energies that led up to GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump's attempted assassination, U.S. President Joe sudden shocking announcement, & the rise of vice president Kamala Harris as the Democratic presidential nominee!We explore the charts of those involved & the astro events—including the Sun/Chiron square that preceded the Mars/Uranus conjunction July 15 that left both Trump & Biden wounded (both literally & figuratively.), Trump as a result of a sudden violent assassination attempt, & Biden through dwindling support, his subsequent Covid diagnosis, & decision to drop out of the U.S. presidential race.We examine the repercussions of the Capricorn Full Moon followed by the Mercury/Uranus square July 21 that resulted in a sudden announcement with major repercussions for the upcoming U.S. presidential election! AND which urged us to let go of the past and move toward a stronger more realistic future foundation…Plus, how wounded healer Chiron's retrograde period from July 25 through December 29 represents America's fifth Chiron return—which may prove just prove the impetus for America to elect its first woman president & help restore women's rights to full bodily autonomy.(Hint: This retrograde is part of the triggering of the U.S. Sibly birth chart's Chiron configuration that began April 18, 2022--after which the Supreme Court Dobbs decision denied women these rights on June 24, 2022--and doesn't end until February 18, 2025!)Between 1776 & now—with the current approximately every 50-year Chiron configuration return--women's rights have both benefitted and suffered. Tune in for a look at what both the U.S. Sibly & Kamala Harris's charts tell us about her prospects & whether American women will help elect the first ever U.S. female president!Tune in to “Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking!” podcast at KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM or any of your favorite podcast stations for more astro news you can use, including the repercussions of the Mars/Uranus conjunction, the Capricorn Full Moon & the how the synodic Sun/Pluto cycle begun on January 20, 2024 reached its culmination as the Sun entered Leo & opposed Pluto July 22/23!And, of course, more details about Chiron's retrograde station July 26 as we headed toward July 27's third quarter monthly lunar square as the lunar cycle wanes! See you there! Namaste…

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM for this week's “Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking!” podcast which drops today, We discuss all the Astro News You Can Use, including repercussions of the July 11/12 Venus/Pluto opposition & what decisions we're facing now at this first quarter lunar square of the Libra Moon to the Cancer Sun!First it pays to remember that the Gemini New Moon monthly lunar cycle--which spanned from June 5 until July 5--& marked by a Sun/Moon/Venus in Gemini square Saturn in Pisces, asked us to plant seeds related to discussing who or what we truly value. And the June 21 Capricorn Full Moon called us to release any tendencies toward infantile behavior of clinging to the past--purely out of habit—rather than entertaining a more serious point of view.However, since the Cancer New Moon July 5--teamed again with Venus but in mutable T-square to Virgo Juno, the goddess asteroid of partnership opposite Saturn in Pisces—asked us to plant seeds that might allow us to decide whether to break, or stay, with current partnerships.Now, the first quarter monthly lunar square of the Libra Moon to the Cancer Sun July 13 urges us to decide where we stand on this issue. In other words, the challenge now is to decide (and we know that the Libra archetype often can be extremely indecisive) whether to align with the emotional past or look forward more realistically to the future.Since the Libra Moon opposes wounded healer Chiron & Eris (the dwarf planet of chaos, discord, & strife) in Aries, while the Cancer Sun squares them both—forming a cardinal T-square--we may find an awful lot of, well, chaos surrounding our partnership decisions right now.Our challenge is to push through this energy with a realistic eye toward the future. This is especially true since we're headed for Mercury's quincunx to Saturn (mental adjustment to reality), an exact Cancer Sun's cardinal square to Chiron in Aries (the wounded leader?), & the Mars/Uranus exact conjunction at 26-degrees 19-minutes of Taurus--all on July 15!As we already know, Uranus in Taurus for the past six years has taught us that the more we resist change, the more sudden & shocking change will be when it arrives, seemingly out of the blue. And in Taurus, change means in reevaluating what we truly value, i.e., our most precious resources, be they our personal relationships, health, finances, etc., or Mother Earth more generally…The first sign of this comes with Venus's move into Leo & the subsequent Venus/Pluto Rx opposition from Leo to Aquarius July 12.We look as well at the repercussions of Saturn & Neptune retrograde thus far, the fact that the upcoming second Capricorn Full Moon on June 21 will bring the repeat the basic message: To let go of the past and deal more realistically with plans for the future.Along the way, we analyze the charts of President Joe Biden (& that Mars/Uranus/Algol conjunction opposing his natal 12th House Scorpio Sun), & Clarence Thomas who's 1st House Aquarius Moon is currently caught between the Venus/Pluto opposition in his 7th House!Join us @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM for more on the fallout from this “venal” aspect as related through current news, & an exploration of the deeper meaning of Mars/Uranus also conjoining with fixed start Algol. Don't miss this enlightening episode & be sure to tune in live or anytime! Namaste…

 JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN WHEN THIS WEEK'S PODCAST DROPS @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM JULY 5 as we say “happy birthday” to America, which turned 248 years old on July 4!Given the current state of the nation, it's time to review both its past and its future—especially within the context of the triggering of our first exact Pluto return, which perfected initially on February 20, 2022 & whose effects are still being felt now. The fact that America is now in a long-term state of transformation is, at this point, undeniable, and the only questions now are how long will this transformational period last & what will be the end result?It seems impossible to deny that the United States of America, a Cancer Sun nation, is having a recurrence of the energies of the late 1770's since transiting Pluto first returned to its natal place on February 20, 2022 & it repercussions are still being felt. To prove this, we need only look at the major Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity issued on July 1--during the waning portion of the previous Gemini New Moon cycle--which essentially anoints a U.S. president a king.Given that this is what the original colonists fought against during the American Revolutionary War—which lasted from 1775-1783—it would seem we've been thrust back in time to relive a similar situation now.Is it possible the current state of chaos & confusion related to the upcoming November 5 U.S. presidential election is the result of an undeniably disastrous June 27 debate performance by President Biden two days before Saturn stationed retrograde on June 29 & less than a week before Neptune's station retrograde July 2? Well, it certainly seems these heavenly retrogrades have thrust this nation back into a crisis of wondering who will lead us through not only current, but future, crises & whether that person is up to the job…We look in this podcast as the prescient writing of NY-based astrologer Michael Lutin, who wrote in the December 2006 issue of Vanity Fair Magazine that as transiting Pluto in Capricorn reconjoined its natal position in the U.S. birth chart that:“The words "patriot" and "treason" will lose their meaning, and in some cases they will become interchangeable. What is treason to one person will be patriotism to another—just as it was back in the 1760s and 70s. The country's mood will become darker and much more conservative. It's not going to be a matter of Democrat or Republican anymore, because the new ideologies will bleed across party lines.”We explore, too, how this July 5 Cancer New Moon--which pits Juno, the asteroid goddess of “the partner” in Virgo against Saturn retrograde in Pisces--poses barriers & boundaries in the realm of partnership. This is echoed as well in the grand cardinal cross formed by both luminaries in opposition to dwarf planet Ceres in authoritative Capricorn. This leaves us at a crossroads as they all square the transiting karmic Libra South Node & Aries North Node at this lunation.If we look at this in the context of Washington, D.C., and the June 27 U.S. presidential debate between Joe Biden & Donald Trump, we can see Juno in Virgo's critical nature against a weak-appearing father (read: authority figure.) As Jungian astrologer Liz Greene puts it in her book “Saturn: A New Look at an Old Devil,” Saturn in Pisces represents, among other things, “a weak father.”Tune in—today or anytime—to KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM to learn more about the triggering of America's Pluto return & how we're in the thick of it now. And how criticism of the current president became louder as we approached the Mercury in Leo opposition to Pluto in Aquarius. July 3.We'll look at Venus entering Leo as we head toward July 11 & her opposition to Pluto by July 12, & whether or not there will be increased resistance to funding the campaigns of both sitting President Biden and his opponent Donald Trump. It's already in the ethers right now for Biden as we can clearly see.All this & more astro news you can use—including Venus's square wounded healer Chiron July 5 & 6, trines of the Sun & Venus to Neptune Rx July 10 & 11, and that Venus/Pluto opposition July 12 as we head toward the Cancer New Moon's first quarter square July 13! See you later! Namaste…

 SHERI HORN HASAN DISCUSSES THIS FULL MOON & THE JUNE 20 SUMMER SOLSTICE CHART @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM on her latest podcast which drops June 21 @ 11 a.m. PT & 2 p.m. ET!Disagreements, squabbles, he said/she said—get ready for a summer full of it, as the summer solstice chart's entrance of the Sun into Cancer portends another three months of angst around our partnerships until the Sun enters Libra at the September 22 fall equinox.That's because this solstice chart reflects a tensional T-square between the Moon in Sagittarius to Juno (a.k.a., the archetypal energy of “the wife”) in Virgo opposite Saturn in Pisces, indicating disharmony between what each partner needs to feel emotionally secure.Witness the formation of new partnerships, such as those between Russia & North Korea, for example, to counteract that of NATO, just to name one collective happening at the time of this solstice…And the fact that Venus—the ruler of the transiting Libra South Node—squares the nodal axis—continues to test our relationships doesn't help either, sad to say…This podcast looks also at what led us to now, including more fallout from the Mars/Pluto exact square June 11 & discusses the deeper meaning of the cycle between these two planets which—when in frictional aspect—often depict explosive events, including potential violence. The fact that these two will be in exact opposition from Cancer to Capricorn on November 3—two days before the U.S. presidential election—makes this cycle one worthy of our attention as it waxes now.So, bump stocks anyone? Get ‘em while they're hot! The Supreme Court says it's A-OKAY to turn a semi-automatic rifle into a nonstop firing machine—but hey, it's NOT a machine gun, ok? Can't get a high court decision less reality-based than that during a week when—following the Mars/Pluto waxing first quarter square June 11 & the first quarter Moon/Sun square June 13—Venus, Mercury, & the Sun all squared Neptune from June 17-20. Tune in for more specifics on how such legal myopia distorts reality!Now, at this Capricorn Full Moon, with the same planetary players still square to Neptune but waning in strength, the Saturn-ruled Capricorn Moon calls us all to release our attachment to that “victim thang,” and to instead put on our big girl & boy pants and just deal with reality already! It's NOT cool to be a victim, the Capricorn Moon admonishes the Cancer Sun, conjoined with Venus & Mercury in weepy Cancer. Grow up! Act like an adult! Take responsibility!Join us for all this & more Astro News You Can Use at “Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking!” podcast which drops today at KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM or any of your favorite podcast stations!

! JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM for the latest “Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking!” podcast @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM—dropping June 7 @ 11 a.m. PT & 2 p.m. ET—for a breakdown of Astro News that's led us to point…Just as night follows day, it's a given that one monthly lunar cycle follows another—astrology is, after all, the study of cycles. This podcast delves deeply into how this past month's planetary aspects—starting with the May 7 Taurus New Moon monthly lunar cycle--helped us renew our innate sense of morality, ethics, and yes, true justice!By now most of us are familiar with the May 30 waning third quarter lunar square & the big news about a trial conviction for former president Donald Trump as Mercury conjoined Uranus in Taurus. This podcast looks at the play-by-play of astrological aspects that led to a jury of his peers finding him guilty on all 34 felony counts, & how in the end that Taurus New Moon cycle's energies reinforced our inherent sense of justice—including in the power of the feminine divine.HINT: We'll look at how, since May 7's Taurus New Moon lunation--& its conjunctions to Uranus & Jupiter in Taurus & sextile to Saturn in Pisces—we were asked us to plant seeds of greater commitment to our truest sense of ethics, morality, & the ability to judge fairly. And how the May 23 Sagittarius Full Moon called us to release our attachment to unrelated or random details that do not add up to the whole story.And now how that renewed sense of faith can lead us to discover-- during this Gemini New Moon monthly lunar cycle—that it's time to plant seeds that allows us to LISTEN to details that make sense because they add up to a logical conclusion. We may use the Gemini archetype's mental agility & adaptability to continue to exchange our old set of no longer relevant values for ones more appropriate to current times. And to plan to our tactical advantage, as long as we remember to keep in mind that we must develop an overall strategy that gets us to the end goal.  The issue this month will move from last month's lunar cycle's sextile to Saturn in Pisces to this month's set of squares to Saturn, which include Venus, the Sun, & Mercury in Gemini all squaring Saturn June 8 9, & 12. Will our renewed optimism turn to pessimism as this month progresses? Will there be even more spin (read: denying what is factually true) as we move toward through this month's lunar cycle?The key here is to get the facts straight and to keep the faith, babe, especially between now and when the Capricorn Full Moon on June 21 asks us to release any infantile habits or behaviors that might make us want to cry if we don't get our way…In addition, we discuss the waxing Mars/Pluto cycle, which began February 18 as it Mars makes an exact waxing square to Pluto July 11. Btw, July 11 is the same day Donald Trump is scheduled to be sentenced, unless his usually tactic of delay, delay, delay is successful, we shall see. We take note of the fact as well that Mars will exact oppose Pluto on November 1—just two days before the November 3, 2024 presidential election, so stay tuned…Finally, we look again at how transiting Pluto's been quincunxing Trump's Leo Ascendant conjunct fixed star Regulus & how I've been saying for months now that this was going to change (read: adjust) the public's views of who he “really” is. That, along with transiting Uranus hitting his Midheaven at the jury verdict, do not bode well for his reputation going forward. However, as always we shall see, but this podcase discusses also the deeper meaning of being born with Regulus prominent in one's chart & how it portends a fall from grace when one misuses one's power through any acts of revenge.Don't miss this week's “Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking!” podcast at KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM!

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM starting May 24 at 11 a.m. PT & 2 p.m. ET when this week's podcast drops for more about Jupiter in Gemini for the next year & the higher meaning of the recent May 23 Sagittarius Full Moon!When the Sagittarius Moon opposed the Gemini Sun at this lunation, it highlighted for us all the shadow side of the Gemini archetype, because it reflected the light of the Sun back to itself, as do all full Moons. Thus, it asked us to release our attachment toward endless chatter & the tendency to run around in mental circles, which can create both confusion & mental exhaustion. The Sagittarius Moon reminded the Gemini Sun that there's a bigger picture—based on a wider interpretation of our personal philosophies—that can cure the Geminian tendency toward getting stuck in the local ‘hood & ignore that there's a wider world out there to which we are all connected. Without such consciousness, the Gemini archetype can get stuck in the maze of its own making (read: distracted by gossip & conspiracy theories) & engage in short-term tactics that don't advance us toward an actual long-term goal.A perfect metaphorical example is this: Imagine the Gemini Sun as a person wandering confusedly through the labyrinth's maze, unable to find an exit. The longer one walks, the more confused one gets as she loses all sense of direction.Well, when the Sagittarius Moon tells the Gemini Sun to “look up!” he's reminding this archetypal energy that there's a way out. If we can expand our mind beyond the narrower ken of being stuck in that labyrinth's seemingly endless mental rut, we can rise above & see its configuration more clearly. The difference boils down to a rat being stuck in a maze with no way out compared to the eagle soaring above who sees the exit clearly.And the Gemini Sun's trine to Pluto Rx in Aquarius at this lunation called us to take stock of the deeper meaning of our lives & to study what no longer works so that we may make changes. The intent is to reform the necessary parts of our lives so they may run more smoothly in the future. Venus entered Gemini then, too, which can help us communicate with others in more loving ways as long as we watch out for superficial communication. So, as Jupiter enters Gemini May 25 for the next year until June 9, 2025, he will expand the Geminian archetype's potential. However, it goes without saying (though I'll say it anyway, lol) that this means it will expand both the good, bad, & the ugly. So, get ready for the expansion of new ideas, ways of communicating, more reading, writing, talking about, & discussing of, ideas. But be prepared also for Gemini's shadow side to rear its ugly head in the form of more mis- & disinformation & propaganda, gossip, fickle behavior, & conspiracy theories.However, since Jupiter-ruled Sagittarius is the sign of higher knowledge & expansion of consciousness, and includes in its archetypal range the subject of law, we may well see an expansion of legal applications to combat Gemini's shadow side energies. So, if we can keep the focus on the positive of Gemini's energies, which include talking, teaching, writing--& the reception of information through listening, learning, reading, & observing—we can make the highest use of Jupiter's transit through Gemini over the next year.Join us @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM to hear more about the repercussions already being felt from the May 23 Sagittarius Full Moon, Jupiter's year-long move into Gemini May 25, & the upcoming astrological energies for this next week! These include current events as related to astrological ones, such as how the May 26 conjunction of Mars/Hygeia (goddess asteroid of health) & current Ceres/Chiron cardinal square in the sky may bring more famine in places like Gaza & Haiti before warring parties agree to a solution. (Ceres is the goddess of the grain, related to sustenance as both food & faith.)And whether Mars conjunct Chiron in Aries May 29 will result in a continued outcry by other nations (as Jupiter expands Gemini's ability to broadcast perspectives & opinions, along with its capacity for legal interpretation) for sanctions against Israel. And whether we'll hear a sudden announcement by the time Mercury conjoins with Uranus in Taurus May 30/31 (read: a jury verdict in the current Trump trial, maybe?) Stay tuned for all this & more Astro News You Can Use when you tune into this week's “Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking” podcast which drops today! See you later! Namaste…

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM for this week's podcast drops at First, let's remember how the March 10 Pisces New Moon called us to develop compassion—for both ourselves & others. Then the April 8 Aries New Moon solar eclipse, which conjoined wounded healer Chiron, asked us to speak out about past & present wounds so that we may heal them going forward.The April 23 Scorpio Full Moon square to Pluto in Aquarius illustrated that social reform is necessary to accomplish both of these goals, as this square—along with Pluto's May 2 station retrograde--represented groups fighting for future change & equality for all. Whether domestically in state legislatures or on college campuses where students call for international equality, this reality has become pretty obvious, wouldn't you say?And when Venus squared Pluto April 30/May 1 issues around sex & money hit the collective in rapid fire, including: Russia raising its citizens taxes to fund its war on Ukraine, the repeal & enactment of abortion laws in several U.S. states, & an ongoing election fraud trial in NYC centered on paying off a porn star to keep quiet about a sexual liaison to win a presidential election.We also had the news—just as Mercury stationed direct in Aries on April 25—that New York's highest court threw out Harvey Weinstein's 2020 rape conviction because it found the trial judge unfairly allowed testimony against Weinstein based on allegations that weren't part of the case. (Don't worry, he's still in prison based on the rape conviction in his Los Angeles trial.)This makes the message of the May 7 Taurus New Moon--which sextiled Saturn in Pisces—even more important with regard to showing greater respect for feminine divine energies & cycles. Especially as convicted sexual abuser former president Donald Trump continues to stand trial in New York for covering up a sex scandal with a porn star as part of an election fraud scheme. Quite representative of all the Venus energy juxtaposed against Mars in Aries right now in a "he said, she said" kinda way, right?Combined with the Aries True North Node's May 8 conjunction to Hygeia, the goddess asteroid of health, we're called this month to work toward improving our own & the world's health. The Sun's sextile to Saturn May 6/7 set the stage for the opportunity to succeed at a plan that Venus's May 13 sextile to Saturn can commit to for the long-term. But this will require a change in values as the Taurus Sun approaches conjunction to Uranus May 13, & a further commitment to justice as the Sun/Jupiter conjunction takes place May 18.And all of this further requires that we understand the messages sent to us already. That self-compassion leads to compassion for others, speaking out about our own & others' deep wounds leads to future healing, & that the opportunity to commit to lasting peaceful solutions that stand the test of time is what's most important as we move forward.Join us at KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT, or any of your favorite podcast stations, for more details about how the heavens reflect back to us these major messages! Namaste…

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM when a new “Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking!” podcast drops at 11 a.m. PT & 2 p.m. PT April 26 & find out more!Like how the Sun's move into Taurus April 19 & the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction in Taurus April 20 led to expanded knowledge & a rapid change in perspective concerning finances & values. This, combined with reduced frustration as the energy of the recent Mars/Saturn conjunction wanes, led to sudden U.S. Congressional cooperation & passage of funding for Ukraine--without which it's predicted Ukraine would lose the war against its Russian aggressor.We look further at how the April 23 Scorpio Full Moon formed a fixed square to Pluto in Aquarius & how this energy manifests now through widening student protests against U.S. support for Israel its war in Gaza, & the growing backlash by authority figures. (Read: Jupiter/Uranus conjunction, Scorpio Moon & Taurus Sun square Pluto in rebellious Aquarius=expansion of student (Jupiter) protests (Uranus/Aquarius) over U.S. financial backing (Taurus) of Israel's war against Hamas in Gaza (Jupiter as the ruler of higher education, law, foreign places, AND religion.) We explore another theme related to these energies in the form of finances & sexual abuse--as Venus approaches a square to Pluto April 30/May 1--by Spain's decision to hold the Catholic Church financially responsible for 440K victims of such abuse by clergy & others. Meanwhile, the Arizona state house repeals the archaic 1864 law that bans abortions there, & we wait to see if the state senate will follow suit. And then there's the U.S. DoJ's $138M award to female Olympic athletes abused by Larry Nasser, the official Olympic gynecologist at the University of Michigan, already serving tine in prison. Can't get more Venus/Pluto than that as the two approach their exact square April 30/May 1!Join us at KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM for more on all this, plus Venus's entrance into Taurus April 29, Mars' move into its own sign of Aries April 30, & the third-quarter monthly lunar square of the Aquarius Moon to the Taurus Sun May 1. (Hint: This asks us to push through current crises in ways that resonate with the mission of this monthly lunar cycle's inception at the April 8 Aries New Moon solar eclipse conjunct wounded healer Chiron by speaking out about our own & other peoples' pain & suffering.) And finally, we take a deeper look at the overall meaning of Pluto's station retrograde in Aquarius on May 2 until October 11. This is where the rubber meets the road in terms of each of us sorting out for ourselves where we stand in terms of morals/integrity, money, & power, & what we can discover from an intense exploration of the meaning of “soul” vs the allures, temptations, & trappings of the outer world…(Hint: Any personal confusion on what this means more specifically for each of us will come clear by watching what happens in the outer world & wider collective during this period!)Don't miss this explanation of how all these astro energies blend together to manifest in the physical world through a look at current events & our role in them! See you then! Namaste…

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM for more about these astro-events when a new “Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking!” We'll delve into the higher meaning of the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction in Taurus—the first time these two have come together in this fixed earth sign since 1941--& how it fits into the upcoming Scorpio Full Moon square to Pluto in Aquarius energy! (Hint: New revelations about necessary future evolutionary societal changes!)Along the way, Sheri discusses recent events within the collective related to Mercury & the Sun's conjunctions to Eris this past week & what news they brought us. AND, how the Sun's move into Taurus April 19 & waning Mars/Saturn in Pisces energy may calm things down a bit going forward, despite the currently ongoing warfare between places like Israel & Iran.Plus, we take a deep dive into Israel's natal chart to see where past wounds (Scorpio South Node conjunct wounded healer Chiron) are triggered now by an opposition from the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction & the quincunx from transiting Chiron in Aries. And how this may determine this nation's future actions/reactions, especially since its karmic nodal axis & Chiron square its natal Saturn/Pluto in Leo.We look also at where these energies occur in the U.S. Sibly chart. And how GOP House speaker Mike Johnson's recent change of heart on supporting funding for Ukraine can be seen as the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction occurs on the U.S. 6th H cusp, calling this nation to once again “be of service” to its allies.This is especially true as transiting Chiron continues making its return & triggers the natal U.S. chart's opposition of natal Chiron to natal Juno/Saturn (read: commitment in partnership) & square to its natal 7th H of partnership Cancer Sun. Translation: Congress debates passing financial & military support for Israel & Ukraine, & supplying humanitarian funds for Gazans based on the retriggering of its own natal wound. Read: The wound to its quest for independence from an overbearing monarchy, which led to its birth as an independent sovereign nation.Finally, the upcoming April 23 Scorpio Full Moon squares Pluto in Aquarius, telling us that change is inevitable as the evolution-oriented Scorpio Moon reflects the light of stubborn change-resistant Taurus Sun back to itself. Change is inevitable as a law of the universe, but won't come easily, as the square of both luminaries to Pluto in Aquarius is already been felt by events like the arrest of 100+ students protesting the war in Gaza at NYC's Columbia University on April 18.With Pluto about to enter Aquarius for the long haul on November 19, we're seeing shades of the revolutionary energy of the Uranus/Pluto conjunction in Virgo from the mid-1960's when the protests by students nationwide at college campuses were shut down by the authorities, sometimes brutally (Kent State, anyone?)We had a preview of this kind of energy when Saturn transited through Uranus-ruled Aquarius (a rebellious energy as well) from March 21, 2020 to July 1, 2020; and then later from December 17, 2020, to March 7, 2023. This is when we experienced groups of people taking to the streets in support of the Black Lives Matter movement—not only in America but in places like France too.Stay tuned for all this Astro News You Can Use & more by checking out this week's podcast @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM (or any of your favorite podcast stations) starting at 11 a.m. PT & 2 p.m. ET today!

 JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM FOR THIS WEEK'S PODCAST  to review the overall themes of the recent March 25 & April 8 eclipses, when they came into play, & where their influence is being felt most!We look back also as last year's eclipses to learn how they've influenced recent events, including Donald Trump's multiple legal indictments--& how these two most recent eclipses, along with Mercury retrograde, resulted in losses of three appeals in his ongoing court cases.We'll look also at the recent eclipse driven earthquakes as symbolic wake up calls as Mercury retrograde conjoined Eris in Aries at the April 8 solar eclipse & then moved back to rejoin the Aries Sun April 11, the day of O.J. Simpson's passing. We review how last fall's Eris/North Node conjunction & eclipses manifested in former GOP House speaker Kevin McCarthy's fall from power, & Rep Mike Johnson's political elevation—all under the influence of dwarf planet Eris, goddess of chaos & discord!This podcast reviews also how, under both Venus & Mercury in the god of war Mars-ruled Aries—but Mercury now retrograde until April 25—Israel withdraws troops from southern Gaza but vows to continue its goal to eliminate Hamas. However, the message of the most recent eclipses has been to release old, unsuccessful, goals & to review, revise, & realign with new ones.In addition, learn how the April 8 solar eclipse conjunct wounded healer Chiron is playing out in terms of turning the tide toward greater healing for women's rights to bodily autonomy. Hint: Mercury's retrograde, so it's one step back, but hopefully two steps forward as Arizona & Florida resurrect archaic abortion laws, but their courts allow referendums on women's rights to abortion onto the November 5 upcoming election ballots—a move sure to bring more pro-choice advocates to the polls.And how we're headed now for a Sun/Eris conjunction on April 14, just before the April 15 first quarter waxing lunar square of the Cancer Moon to the Aries Sun, as we head toward the Sun's entrance into Taurus April 19 & the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction April 20! Will additional chaos result in more confusion or greater revelations that bring clarity?Join us for all this & more Astro News You Can Use at KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM starting today! See you then!

 JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN AT KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM FOR THIS WEEK'S PODCAST--which drops April 5 @ 11 a.m. PT & 2 p.m. ET—to learn more about how we arrived at this energy & what to expect moving forward…When we extrapolate current astrological energies out of collective happenings down into the level of the personal, we might ask ourselves now: “What dream did I plant at the March 10 Pisces New Moon that I'm now finding was unrealistic because I will be, in the end, unable to successfully manifest it out in the world?And where, at the March 25 Libra Full Moon, did I need to release any tendency to fight rather than create an environment of peace & harmony? OR where did I decide to go along to get along & acquiesce with others against my true wishes?And how, as we approach the Aries New Moon solar eclipse on April 8, can I recognize—as Mercury retrogrades in Aries until April 25 & Mars waxes toward a conjunction with Saturn in Pisces April 10—that I must reorient my creative aspirations into ones more concretely possible in the real world?This podcast outlines the major happenings within the collective since the Capricorn Moon & dwarf planet Ceres squared the Aries Sun & transiting karmic nodal axis at the third-quarter lunar square April 1. (Hint: Ceres is related to “sustenance” in the form of both literal food & faith, as it's when our bellies are full that we can have faith that we needn't worry about from where our next meal will come.)And how the April 3 Venus/Neptune conjunction in Pisces—though fleeting—dissolved any fantasies around the success of previous plans because they've now proven to be unworkable.Further, we're watching now how Venus's April 4 entrance into Mars-ruled Aries transforms the goddess of beauty & love into a warrior for relationships, which--through negotiation & compromise—can prove more harmonious & peaceful in the end.We're challenged now—as Mars waxes toward an exact conjunction to Saturn in Pisces April 10--with the frustrating task of divining a new, more workable, plan for the future. And we have two choices with this aspect: fatigue & depression OR exhaustion after we put our shoulder to the wheel & work hard to achieve success.It's up to each of us to decide which way will prove more healing given Chiron's prominent presence conjunct the Sun & Moon in Aries at this solar eclipse, which calls us to act in order to heal old wounds.By April 11, when the Aries Sun meets Mercury retrograde at their inferior conjunction, we will doubtless hear some kind of major announcement from the powers that be. And it will likely be something that's revising an older policy or plan because, as noted, Mercury is retrograde--a time when we review & revise our previous courses of action. And it's then we hopefully will hear something meant to promote further healing within the collective.Tune in to KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM to hear more details about how astrological events within the collective illustrate how these heavenly energies manifest on terra firma! And what else they may reveal at the April 8 Aries New Moon solar eclipse!Check it all out for more Astro News You Can Use & this don't miss podcast episode that illustrates how real-life events enlighten us all about our future direction—both personally & collectively!

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM for the latest podcast, which drops March 29 @ 11 a.m. PT & 2 p.m. ET, about how the recent March 25 & upcoming April 8 eclipses—AND Mercury's retrograde in Aries April 1-25—kick off a long-term review of both current partnerships & creative projects!This includes a look at how the March 25 Libra Full Moon lunar eclipse revealed changes in our relationships to others—both personal & as part of the collective. In addition, we discuss how Mercury's station retrograde from 27-degrees 10-minutes Aries April 1 back to 16-degrees Aries on April 25--when it stations direct again--provides us all the opportunity to review where & how we need to make changes to those which no longer inspire us. This Mercury retrograde period may stall the flow of our creative juices—temporarily—but the gift is time to review where we may have lost our mojo & need to recapture the kind of intuitive inspiration that helps us better plan our future. This theme is likely to be most prevalent when Mercury hits the upcoming Mars-ruled April 8 Aries New Moon solar eclipse degree of 19-degrees 24-minutes of the archetypal sign of motivation, ambition, & proactive assertion.This period is already activated since Mercury already conjoined this eclipse degree circa March 20/21, will do so again when retrograde on April 16, & once more when direct on May 5. Combined with the theme of this spring eclipse season, we're asked to reorient our creative pursuits in order to release any stagnant non-productive energy & make way for something new—partnerships included.As always, we discuss also the specifics of where partners have come together to negotiate, compromise, & successfully change their attitudes toward each other, & where, sadly, people & nations are still at war. Given that the April 8 solar eclipse has both luminaries tightly conjunct wounded healer Chiron, we discuss as well how future healing may be possible since repercussions of the Libra Full Moon lunar eclipse last through November 20, 2024—the day the South Node conjoins the March 25 lunar eclipse degree. Which, btw, also happens to be the day after Pluto reenters Aquarius on November 19 for the next 19 years.If you're ready to delve more deeply into the March 25 Libra Full Moon lunar eclipse's already realized effects on partnerships AND learn what's yet to come with the April 8 Aries New Moon Solar eclipse, then this podcast is a don't miss!

 JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM FOR THE LATEST ASTRO NEWS YOU CAN USE AS WE MOVE OUT OF PISCEAN APATHY & INTO MARTIAL RESISTANCE WHEN THE SUN ENTERS ARIES AT THE SPRING EQUINOX MARCH 21!While Mercury's in Mars-ruled Aries from March 9 through April 29—the sign through which he'll next retrograde from April 1-25—expressions of angry impatience over world events such as those in Gaza may well continue to increase. This is especially true since Venus—in Pisces from March 9 through April 5—will join Mercury in Aries April 5 for the rest of his journey through that sign.What does this mean? Mercury rules not only communication, but siblings, local business & transportation, & “near neighborhoods,” including relatives like aunts, uncle, & cousins. We can plainly see anger building over events this week around the too slow transportation of food & medicine into places like Gaza, where children are dying of malnutrition. Also in Haiti where more than a million children--a quarter of the population--are currently cut off from food and vital services due to the recent violence there, according to the charity Save The Children.In addition, many domestic legal “arguments” have been heard this week & will continue to be heard by the U.S. Supreme Court during the period of these Mercury & Venus transits. Venus in Pisces, is exalted according to traditional astrology, , yes, but that doesn't change its propensity for naivete or the ability to play the victim or the martyr—which as Howard Sasportas points out in his book “The Gods of Change” are really two sides of the same coin.So, as anger builds over the mistreatment of others (Mercury is in Mars-ruled Aries & Mars highest function is to defend & protect those weaker or unable to defend themselves), while the dissolution of women's rights offends Venus as she travels first through Neptune-ruled Pisces but soon will move into Mars-ruled Aries as well, as noted.So, issues of women's rights as they've been flowing down the drain since the Supreme Court's Dobbs legal decision in June 2022 (Venus represents how we value feminine divine energy) have ignited a great deal of anger which is only likely to increase more openly when Venus transits through Aries soon.This week, however, the Sun conjoins Neptune March 17, making us all more prone to feel for the masses who need protection from harm because we're able to relate to their victimization now. When the Sun moves into Aries March 21, such empathy may turn into action, as evidenced by Senate majority leader Chuck Schumer's recent call for new elections in Israel--essentially to dethrone current right wing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu from power there.Sentiments of this sort are likely to increase as Mercury conjoins wounded healer Chiron in Aries March 20 & the likelihood for further commitment to empowerment for the downtrodden to increase may arrive when the Aries Sun sextiles Pluto in Aquarius (read: an opportunity for such empowerment) & Venus conjoins Saturn, an aspect of commitment & responsibility in relationships.Join us for more @Karmic Evolution Dot Com, when this latest podcast drops at 11 a.m. PT & 2 p.m. ET today--including Mars's movement into Neptune ruled Pisces March 22 & Venus's sextile to Jupiter March 24, as we move toward the upcoming March 25 Libra Full Moon solar eclipse! See you then! Namaste…

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM ON MARCH 9 TO LEARN HOW THE MESSAGES OF THE LAST AQUARIUS NEW MOON FEBRUARY 9 LEAD US NOW TO PLANT SEEDS OF RECOGNITION THAT WE'RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER AT THE PISCES NEW MOON!This week's podcast reviews the deeper meaning of the last monthly lunar cycle (hint: it's about learning that not all dreams are capable of becoming reality) & illustrates that when we're in a time of confusion the Pisces New Moon phase will remind us that from chaos comes clarity!The Pisces New Moon, at 20-degrees 16-minutes Pisces at 2 a.m. PT & 5 a.m. ET March 10, has both luminaries sandwiched between planets in only four other signs—from Pluto at 1'27” Aquarius through Uranus at 19'52 Taurus, concentrating our energies now. On one hand we may be more myopic (read: more subjective than objective), but on the other more focused & better able to concentrate.However, with the Moon, Sun, Saturn, Neptune, and Hygeia--the goddess asteroid of health--all in Pisces, things have been murky for a while. As we emerge from the Aquarius New Moon square Uranus in Taurus cycle—which represented sudden shifts in our ideological values, particularly as they relate to our partnerships—we'll soon be called to express empathy for others, especially since the Mercury/Neptune conjunction of March 8.We're tasked now with releasing all wishful or fantastical thinking & grounding the planting of our new Moon seeds into caring for others through the knowledge that we are all one; all part of the greater collective's energies; all brothers & sisters under the skin.With Juno, the goddess asteroid of partnership, opposing Saturn, however, this might not prove so easy. Some of this was illustrated at President Biden's State of the Union address March 7, as we waxed toward March 8's Sun/Neptune conjunction in Pisces.While he expressed the urgency of March 9's Mars/Uranus square by saying “I see a future of defending democracy where we protect our right to freedoms, not take them away,” the GOP rebuttal from Alabama Senator Katie Britt's exposed to a wide audience the GOP's more dystopian view.This ideological schism could not be wider and, though in play for quite some time now, it's the Pisces New Moon that will remind us that “no man is an island, no man stands alone…each man's joy is joy to me, each man's grief is my own.” If we can get with that program, ideological differences can dissolve & true caring for our fellow human beings can rise to the surface…Join Sheri @ KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM for a look at these ongoing energies & for more Astro News You Can Use, including more about the greater messages this Pisces New Moon brings us all!

JOIN ASTROLOGER SHERI HORN HASAN @ KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM FOR THIS WEEK'S “KARMIC EVOLUTION'S ASTROLOGICALLY SPEAKING!” PODCAST for a discussion of how the bigger astro picture is shaping the future both in the U.S. & globally…This podcast explores how the current 36-year Saturn/Pluto in Capricorn cycle, which began January 12, 2020, is bringing new alignments in terms of partnerships—which is happening as we head toward the end of the 36-year cycle of Saturn to Neptune starting in early 2026.We look back at past Saturn/Pluto & Saturn/Neptune cycles as we head toward the beginning of the new Saturn/Neptune cycle which begins February 20, 2026, for the next 36 years. Learn the historical facts related to these astrological cycles & how they pose similar questions for our future…Will the new world order forming now—especially since Russia's invasion of Ukraine two years ago has strengthened the NATO alliance—portend the weakening of America as a dominant world power? Especially with the current chaos in Congress & the uncertainty around the November 5 U.S. presidential election?All this as Pluto's about to enter Aquarius for the next 19 years on November 19, 2024, until March 2043, & we're still dealing with the repercussions of the U.S. Pluto return. This podcast explores, too, the repercussions of the once every 162-year Jupiter/Neptune conjunction in Pisces, which began its new cycle on April 12, 2022. We note how, since then, there's been a major dissolution (read: Neptune & Jupiter-ruled Pisces) of boundaries concerning all things Jupiterian--including law, higher education, immigration, & religion. Join us to look at the astrological macrocosm of these bigger planetary cycle shifts as they are applied to the microcosm of what's happening now!That's as in what occurred when the Pisces Sun, Mercury, & Saturn conjoined on February 28. On last week's podcast Sheri noted how a Sun/Mercury conjunction usually portends a major announcement by someone of import, such as a head of state or someone in a high position, be it a politician, celebrity, or other prominent personage.However, this conjunction included serious Saturn—& was in the archetypal sign of Neptune-ruled Pisces, which cast a cloud of confusion over whether such an announcement would actually come to pass. And major announcements we had! From the stepping down of Senator Mitch McConnell as minority leader of the Senate, to the confusing statement by President Biden indicating an Israeli/Hamas ceasefire was near, to the Supreme Court's announcement it would take up Donald Trump's presidential immunity claims & cause more delay, & more!Join us to grow in consciousness via an interesting astrological conversation about this & more Astro News You Can Use as we approach the March 3 third-quarter monthly lunar square following the February 24 Virgo Full Moon which asked us to release our attachment to believing in things that prove to be factually untrue in the end. You know, like that the fact that “billionaire” Donald Trump can't easily afford to put up $464 million in escrow while he appeals his recent NYS financial judgment in court—stuff like that!Don't miss this interesting “Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking!” podcast at KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM (or your favorite podcast station) which drops today March 1 & learn more about how long-term astrological energies work in the REAL world!

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN@KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM FOR THIS WEEK'S, for a deeper exploration of how the Virgo Moon sheds light on the tall tales spun by the Pisces Sun, Mercury, & Saturn that lack factual foundation & how this changes our perspective regarding our future ideologies, including about all things political.As we approach the February 24 Virgo Full Moon at 4:30 a.m. PT & 7:30 a.m. ET, & the “just the facts, ma'm” Virgo Moon reflects back to the Pisces Sun, Mercury, & Saturn, its rigid notions that apocryphal imaginings are “real,” the Venus/Jupiter square likewise illustrates the over the top exaggeration of such false narratives (such as, for example, the dispelling of the GOP's “Biden bribery scheme” as fabricated by a Russian operative who lied.)This change in ideologies about who and what to trust as time goes by has been part of the monthly lunar cycle's intent since the Aquarius Full Moon February 9 & the cycle's first-quarter square February 16. Both were times when sudden shocking news—from Donald Trump's refusal to ally with protecting NATO nations on February 10 to the news of “the faker” in the Biden bribery case February 15. And then there's the sudden shocking death of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny in a Russian penal colony at the age of 47 most likely at the hands of his nemesis strongman Vladimir Putin on February 16Join us to learn what's followed, including the change in perspectives by those both within & without the U.S. as the GOP continues to further suppress women's rights here in the U.S. through limiting their rights to bodily autonomy via a recent judge's anti IVF ruling.There's more Astro News You Can Use, as we examine the astrological energies leading up to this Virgo Full Moon & what will likely occur—especially through the potential for more major announcements between now and February 28 when the Pisces Sun, Mercury, & Saturn conjoin. And that's after Mars squares Jupiter—a potentially explosive energy—occurs on February 27.)The hope is that whatever this announcement entails, it will bring further closure to how those tall tales spun—particularly since Trump's cries of election fraud since 2020—may finally be put to rest through t

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN FOR THIS WEEK'S PODCAST @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM We revisit what occurred during Pluto's journey into Capricorn (& retrograde into Sagittarius) between January 26 & November 27, 2008, when he entered the Saturn-ruled sign of foundational security. And then apply this history to Pluto's first dip into ideological group-oriented Aquarius March 23, 2023, & his retrogrades back into Capricorn until he reenters Aquarius November 19, 2024, until 2043…It's when a slow-moving planet like Pluto moves into a new sign that we get the biggest bang. And in November 2008 the world experienced a financial crisis like no other, sparked by the crisis in the U.S. housing market due to knowledge of how hidden predatory lending practices came to the surface & broke the system. Then, it was about the Plutonic transformation of all things Saturn/Capricorn related: business, banking, assets, wealth, both corporate & personal finances, etc., as what became known as the “Global Financial Crisis” is now known as most severe worldwide economic crisis since the Great Depression of 1929.This podcast compares that time with the similarly rocky time now as Pluto has already entered Aquarius March 23, 2023, & continues to retrograde back into Capricorn until he reenters Aquarius November 19, 2024 until he first dips his toe into Pisces in 2043. Only now, it's about transformation to all things fixed air sign Aquarius, including political ideologies & the hardening of such ideologies into different groups.While since 2008 we watched financial foundations crack & subsequent reforms made to the system, now we are watching ideological foundations grow father apart, not only in the U.S. but throughout the world. As Pluto's in its nascent stages of entering Aquarius for the long term, the question becomes: Will history repeat itself &, if so, how? What are the foundational cracks that we've been ignoring that may well widen into another global crisis, but this time one with an Aquarian theme?Join us for this discussion, along with how Pluto's journey into Aquarius now coincides with the already triggered U.S. Pluto return to its position in 1776 at this country's birth, & how the widening set of ideological beliefs between different groups may ultimately play out.We look also at this week's Astro News You Can Use, including the waxing first quarter monthly lunar square of the Taurus Moon to the Aquarius Sun February 16, part of the Aquarius New Moon square Uranus cycle that began February 9 which revealed several shocking surprises via the collective. Changes to our sense of security (& therefore our values) abound as this monthly lunar cycle waxes—find out more about the astrological implications of this by tuning in to this week's podcast!We review also how the March 13/14 Mars/Pluto conjunction in Aquarius manifested, true to form, as violence in places like Kansas City, MO, by February 15. And the upcoming entrance of Venus into Aquarius & the Sun's square to Uranus February 16, the Venus/Pluto conjunction February 17, followed by the Sun's move into empathic Pisces on February 18. In addition, there's the Venus/Mars conjunction February 21/22, & Mercury's move into Pisces February 22/23, as we gear up for the Virgo Full Moon's release on February 24!Join us for all this & more @ KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM, starting today! See you soon! Namaste…

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM FOR THIS WEEK'S PODCAST First we look back at the momentous after-effects of the Mercury/Pluto conjunction in Aquarius from February 5 when Mercury joined the Sun & Pluto in the sign of independence, technology, humanity, & democracy. Mercury, the god of communication had a lot to say about these subjects when he met up with Pluto, god of the underworld who represents death & rebirth, power, sex, & finances in the form of joint resources & other peoples' money.This podcast discusses the astrology behind recent announcements between February 5-8 that carry such themes. For example, word of King Charles III's cancer diagnosis, Donald Trump's appeals court loss of his ability to claim immunity in his federal criminal case--a major milestone in protecting the U.S. democratic legal system from extinction--& U.S. House of Representative's speaker Mike Johnson's miscalculation that group votes would go his way.These are just a few examples of repercussions of the February 5 Mercury/Pluto conjunction--another one being the announcement that at least 32 of the 136 hostages still held by Hamas (or their proxies) in Gaza since October 7 are now dead. (Mercury/Pluto=messages about death. )Also dead now is the effort to impeach President Joe Biden via the release February 8 of the special prosecutor's report that he did no wrong in the classified documents investigation, & a hard “no” from Israel's Benjamin Netanyahu on the latest proposed Israel/Hamas ceasefire for hostages deal.And then, post the ME/PL conjunction & as we waxed toward the potential disruptive energies of the Sun/Uranus square February 8, there's FL Rep Matt Gaetz's introduction of a resolution in the House to kill Trump's liability based on Section 3 or the 14th Amendment. While February 8's Supreme Court arguments centered on Trump's disqualification from the Colorado presidential ballot on the grounds that he participated in insurrection, Section 3 states that Congress can "remove such a disability...by a vote of two-thirds of each House."If successful, which is unlikely, passage of such a resolution by both Houses of Congress would shield all 147 GOP House & Senate members who voted to accept fake electors & thereby obstruct justice on the evening of the January 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. Understanding this with greater clarity might help change some voters' minds as primary season gets seriously underway soon…It's the Aquarius New Moon square Uranus in Taurus that may bring us such revelations (shocking or otherwise) since it follows the Sun/Uranus square from Feb 8 & is followed by a Mercury/Jupiter square February 10, indicating that overlooked details such as this resolution's import may provide the death knell to democracy as we know it.That sloppy thinking may reveal important details is evident in Mike Johnson's declaration that, though he lost the House vote to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas AND on the bipartisan immigration bill that included aid for Ukraine, Israel, & humanitarian assistance for certain regions, including Gaza, he's promised to try again on the former.Meanwhile, we're headed to a new synodic cycle between Mars & Pluto in Aquarius after Mars enters Aquarius February 12/13 & conjoins Pluto on the 13/14. Happy Valentine's Day as this potentially intense, volatile, explosive energy is bound to result in some fireworks--the only question is whether this energy proves positive or negative in nature. Stay tuned, because after that Venus enters Aquarius & Mercury squares Uranus February 16, while there's then a Venus/Pluto conjunction February 17.The one thing we know for sure is that there are some volatile days ahead as Biden begins to criticize Israel's actions in Gaza as "over the top," Tucker Carlson interviews Russia's strongman Vladimir Putin & aids its anti-western propaganda machine, & Donald Trump moves toward a possible federal criminal trial after all...Check out the latest podcast @ KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM, & we'll see you then!

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM FOR A LOOK AT HOW THE THIRD QUARTER MONTHLY LUNAR SQUARE OF THE SCORPIO MOON TO THE AQUARIUS SUN HAS RESULTED IN AGREEMENT & GREATER EMPOWERMENT IN VARIOUS GROUPS TO DATE!This week's podcast looks at how the larger themes of this month's lunar cycle since the Capricorn New Moon squared the Nodes & Jupiter on January 11 have played out—& ahead to the upcoming February 9 Aquarius New Moon square Uranus & trine/sextile the Nodes. When a leader of the pack emerged at the Leo Full Moon January 25, we were cautioned about over-optimism. Now we look ahead to see how group ideologies may change with the Aquarius New Moon.This podcast also takes a look at Donald Trump's terrible, horrible, very bad, no good, day in court when a jury verdict slammed him with an $83 million judgment based on defamation via tracing the Mars/Pluto synodic cycle in his chart.Did you know his first defamatory tweet went out on June 20, 2019, just as transiting Mars in Cancer was conjoining his natal Saturn/Venus in Cancer AND opposing transiting Pluto as it, was opposing his natal conjunction? K, well come find out more about how the transiting Mars/Pluto cycle has resulted in some “interesting” setbacks for Trump over the past few years. (Hint: most of them financial since Pluto represents joint resources & other peoples' money!) AND how this cycle may play when Mars opposes Pluto exact two days before the U.S. presidential election November 5.We look also at agreements made at this third-quarter waning lunar square involving passage in the U.S. House of Representatives—which overrode GOP right wingers objections to pass a $78 Billion Tax Relief for American Families Workers Act designed to extend the child credit & benefit small businesses. Likewise, we take a gander at how European Union leaders banded together to convince Hungary's Viktor Orban to approve a landmark 50 billion euro (US $54 billion) fund for Ukraine that will help the country stay afloat for the next four years, despite U.S. aid remaining stymied in Congress.AND, can we notice the effects of Uranus's recent station direct in Taurus on January 26/27 during the recent U.S. Congressional hearing about regulating social media platforms (read: technology) to prevent child abuse? Or the fact that Universal Music seemingly suddenly pulled it license with Tik Tok to play major artists' music on that platform (think Taylor Swift, Drake, U2, Ariana Grande, & you'll get the picture!), & the music of those artists (& others') suddenly disappeared on the eve of the February 2 third-quarter lunar square.Join us for all this & more Astro News You Can Use—including Mercury's entrance into Aquarius & meet up with Pluto February 5, & the Sun's exact square to Uranus February 8, just before the Aquarius New Moon February 9. Also, Mercury squares Jupiter February 10, Mars enters Aquarius February 12/13 & Mars/Pluto begin a new synodic cycle in Aquarius when the god of war meets the god of the underworld February 13/14!Get the scoop on the greater meaning of all these astro happenings when you tune into this week's Karmic Evolution's podcast @ KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM--or any of your favorite podcast stations!

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM FOR THIS WEEK'S ASTRO NEWS YOU CAN USE PODCAST @ 11 a.m. PT & 2 p.m. ET to learn more about how heavenly movements affect us all…The Leo Full Moon, followed January 26 by the exact square of the Aquarius Sun to Jupiter, warns us to not get overly optimistic about who seems to be the current GOP leader in the upcoming U.S. presidential election. That's because Uranus's January 26/27 station direct in Taurus may change our perspective by “making us conscious of imperfection,” as Erin Sullivan puts it.Join us for a wider discussion of this & more Astro News You Can Use, including a look at Nikki Haley's chart, which reveals how—just like in U.S. House speaker Mike Johnson's chart—her Nodal axis was hit by as square from the October 28 lunar eclipse. In addition, how the January Sun/Pluto conjunction in Capricorn fell smack on her natal Capricorn Sun & how that's manifested thus far! Both will have the upcoming March 25 lunar eclipse in Libra trine their Aquarius North Nodes so we may not want to count either of them out just yet, we shall see…Meanwhile, as Venus has joined Mercury & Mars in Capricorn, the latter two conjoin January 27, bringing messages from the military generals in Israel that the plan to eradicate Hamas entirely is all but impossible. Mars in Capricorn, known as “the general” has sent messenger Mercury to negotiate a new Israeli ceasefire/withdrawal & hostage release in the form of CIA director William Burns. All this as the Mars & Mercury squares to wounded healer Chiron in Aries continues to reveal the worsening conditions in Gaza in terms of lack of food, water, & medicine as disease begins to spread.Meanwhile, we discuss too how the upcoming April 8 solar eclipse in Aries energy may begin to manifest now because the Nodes have already hit the sensitized eclipse degree of 19'24” Aries!

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM FOR THE LATEST ASTRO NEWS YOU USE PODCAST—INCLUDING THE UPCOMING LEO FULL MOON JANUARY 25-- JANUARY 19!This week's podcast discusses how the nascent Saturn/Pluto & Jupiter/Saturn synodic cycles--begun in early & late 2020, respectively—are beginning to create a new global order. We review the history of the past two Saturn/Pluto 36-year cycles & how they coincided with WWI & WWII--both of which resulted in drastically realigned global politics.Even Foreign Affairs Magazine notes that “2024 is the year of a rare planetary alignment,” as 80 nations—including major democracies—are set to go to the polls to elect leaders in 2024, & the world is poised to enter a new era as this astrological cycle progresses.When the Sun meets Pluto at 29-degrees 58-minutes Capricorn for the first time since January 18, 1789--when the two conjoined at 29-degrees 45-minutes of Capricorn—it's followed hours later by their entrance into Aquarius January 20. Although Pluto retrogrades back into Capricorn one more time between September 1 & 19 November, January 20 marks the triggering of the Jupiter/Saturn conjunction degree of 0'28” Aquarius that heralded future change to power structures starting December 21, 2020.The Jupiter/Saturn cycle, in the air element for the first time in 200-years since 1980, portends new leadership—which we see through exploration of the myth of the death of the old king & the reign of the new one. This podcast explores how the waxing Jupiter/Saturn cycle implies the death of “an old principle.” (Jupiter formed a waxing sextile to Saturn back in June 2023 & will come within a degree of a Saturn sextile again between January 27-February 23) This death is often followed a period of uncertainty & chaos (sound familiar, anyone?) before a new one takes hold, both collectively & personally.Find out more about how these cycles are interacting with current astrological events, as the January 17 waxing first-quarter monthly lunar square challenges us still to continue to steady the wheel & steer the ship toward partisan compromise here in the U.S. & abroad as we wax toward the January 25 Leo Full Moon square Jupiter!Join Sheri for all this & more at KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM! See you then!

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM FOR HER NEW PODCAST ON THIS & MORE ASTRO NEWS YOU CAN USE DROPPING TODAY AT 11 A.M. PT & 2 P.M. ET!We'll discuss this upcoming lunation in the context of it as part of the November 13 Scorpio New Moon monthly cycle, the Sun/Mars conjunction in Scorpio November 17, the first-quarter lunar square November 20, the Sun's entrance into Sagittarius November 22 & square to Saturn November 23, along with Mars entrance into Sagittarius November 24 & his square to Saturn November 25!A look at what's happened during this time period helps us understand what might be yet to come—but also that it may not manifest smoothly, especially if we don't allow ourselves to understand where we're stuck in old philosophies based on old values that have led us to reject another's way of thinking or perspective.Sheri gives a multitude of example of the fall-out from the November 17 Sun/Mars conjunction in terms of astro news--& there's quite a bit of it! Plus, are we in for major health issues in the collective as Hygeia, the goddess asteroid of health, waxed at this Gemini Full Moon toward an exact square to shock-maker Uranus, still retrograde in Taurus?

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM FOR THIS & MORE ASTRO NEWS YOU CAN USE! All this as Venus transits through Libra, the archetypal deal- & peacemaker, & Mercury's in hyperbolic Sagittarius! As Mercury in Sagittarius sextiled Venus in Libra, we saw how both influenced Congressional deal-making, Biden's amicable meeting with Xi, & the announced release of an Ethics Committee report finding Santos violated campaign finance law.This Includes the relatively swift Congressional agreement on a continuing resolution to keep the U.S. Government open, the sudden negative turn-around of fate for NY Rep. George Santos, & President Biden's reestablishment of open lines of communication with China's Xi Jinping!On another note, since Mercury's been in Sadge (since November 9) & we approach today's Sun/Mars conjunction in Scorpio, we've seen an increase in over-the-top Nazi rhetoric out of the mouths of GOP frontrunner Donald Trump & his sycophants. We begin to recognize the symbolism of the concept of “hostage,” not only in the obvious situation in the Middle East, but the less obvious as well such as how Trump holds a high percentage of his base “hostage” through vociferously proclaimed authoritarian plans for if he regains the White House.We've seen also how the right wing GOP House members have held the rest there hostage to its minority desires, how AL Senator Tommy Tuberville holds that body hostage as he impedes important military appointment confirmations which only weakens U.S. military readiness for the rest of its citizens & the country as a whole, & how American voters have been held hostage to an “originalist” interpretation of a Supreme Court which recently released a “pretend” code of ethics as Mars waxed trine to Neptune…Plus, more about the Sun/Mars next two-year synodic cycle, & how Saturn in Pisces, now direct since November 4, is beginning to gain speed again as the flow of migrants across the southern U.S. are injured in record numbers falling from the border wall there resulting in broken bones, etc. On the brighter side, there's the movement toward a Hamas hostage release deal, the ratification of United Auto Worker's union contracts with the big three auto makers, & the conviction of the man who attacked Paul Pelosi, Rep. Nancy Pelosi's husband, with a hammer, fracturing his skull.Join us for all of this & more Astro News You Can Use as we approach the first quarter square of the monthly lunar cycle, the Sun sextiles Pluto, & Mercury trines wounded healer Chiron November 20, and Mars sextiles Pluto November 21, while the Sun ingresses into potentially more optimistic Sagittarius November 22!It remains to be seen whether optimism holds as Venus opposes Chiron then, & the Sun squares Saturn November 23, followed by Mars' entrance into Sagittarius & square to Saturn November 24 & 25, respectively. This kind of "stop & go" energy is likely to cause a good deal of frustration--especially vis-a-vis the Middle East hostage situation--so stay tuned!Check out “Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking!” latest podcast @ KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM, which drops today at 11 a.m. PT & 2 p.m. ET!

ET--AS WE CONTINUE TO SEE THE ALIGNMENT & REALIGNMENT OF PARTNERSHIPS IN THE WAKE OF THESE ECLIPSES!We'll look at the notable events leading up & since the October 28 Taurus Full Moon Lunar Eclipse & discuss the symbolic nature of a mass murderer gunning down several deaf people on October 25 in or near places that serve alcohol on the night of a Moon/Neptune conjunction in Pisces & what is the true message here…Plus, we'll decipher more about the charts of people like LA Rep. Mike Johnson, who was elected speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives by many who did not even know who he was as that Moon/Neptune waxed toward exact! AND whether or not he will last--given that the October 28 lunar eclipse squared his natal Leo/Aquarius nodal axis, as transiting Jupiter Rx's was waxing square to his Aquarius Sun. Transiting Jupiter Rx is also headed back to square his natal Nodes again by December 30 when Jupiter stations direct, so the question is whether Johnson will become a bit too big for his britches & his fixed Aquarius Sun's rigidly obsessive righteous right-wing ideology (as Pluto's conjoins his natal Mercury now) cause a fall from grace by then?Meanwhile, we discuss the sad news of Matthew Perry's death by drowning just hours after the lunar eclipse & how this lunation hit his 4th House Scorpio Moon/10th House Taurus Saturn opposition. Perry's birth chart shows his 1st House Leo Sun in square to his 4th House Neptune, a good aspect for an actor, but not so great when it comes to the potential for losing oneself to escapist addictive tendencies.Join Sheri to hear more discussion of these charts (& other partnership realignments globally as more nations pull their ambassadors out of Israel in protest of current events in Gaza), & the upcoming nature of Saturn's station retrograde November 4!And while you're there, don't forget to download your “How To Keep Your Sun Sign Happy!” astrological advice from renowned astrologer Steven Forrest!

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN FOR A LOOK AT ALL THE “ASTRO NEWS YOU CAN USE “AT KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM TODAY OCTOBER 20 AT 11 A.M. PT & 2 PM ET!We continue to adjust to last week's quincunxes which caused sudden confusion about what's true & what's not, as we approached the Libra Sun/Mercury superior conjunction October 19/20. Join us to discuss the repercussions of this--not only on the world stage, but the U.S. domestic one as well--as situations continue to spiral out of control & partners cajole &/or bully each other into accepting their points of view as Mercury & the Sun square Pluto October 20/21.Along the way, we'll review President Joe Biden's chart as transiting Saturn sits on his 3rd House of communication's South Node, indicating the obstacles he faces & the hard work necessary to convince the world—and his own Congress—that he's committed to peace & stability everywhere.We'll also check out the chart of Congressman Jim Jordan—one of the founders of the GOP's Freedom Caucus in the House of Representatives—as he doggedly pursues his Aquarius Saturn/Mars/Sun fixed ideology via his Venus/Eris/Jupiter/Moon stellium in Aries. Do these perhaps back up current complaints that he's strong-arming fellow GOP'ers to vote for him as speaker of the House, including through the use of threats?Not an impossibility as Mercury & the Sun square Pluto October 20/21 & we experience the first quarter monthly square of the Capricorn Moon to the Libra Sun & Mercury enters Scorpio October 21. Financial solutions come into play now as Venus in Virgo trines Jupiter Rx in Taurus, & Mercury moves into Scorpio then, too. We can only hope to recognize the blunt truth as Mercury trines Saturn Rx October 22, the Sun enters Scorpio October 23 & then trines Saturn, too, on the 24. And that perhaps long-term future goals—and plans to successfully achieve them--will come into concrete manifestation by then.It's at the Taurus Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on October 28 that we'll be asked to release our attachment to the Scorpio Sun's propensity for a constant state of transformation (which looks to be SO chaotic right now given the prominent presence of Eris, the goddess of chaos, discord & strife, as she aligns-with the transiting karmic Aries North Node of destiny.) Right now, however, confusions still reigns.Join us for an enlightening astro-discussion of these current astro-energies!
