Peeps! I am re-posting this as Uranus-Venus transits already going on – see below – are now HOT for two reasons: Venus is quincunx Uranus, setting them off AND Uranus is retrograding way back to where it was lurking in Feb 2008 and then forward again…So from now till May 2010 is the Hot Zone for your Uranus-Venus transit. Also, Saturn gets involved from now through until September – yay! – So some of us could even have a, gulp, meaningful and enduring Uranian romance. As Uranus heads back to exact conjunct my Piscean Venus, i am totally going to be in the club, hanging out in the comments. Pls read the post and comments to determine your eligibility to join my club.

Last year’s transit of Uranus conjunct my natal Venus bought The Uranian & it wasn’t even exact. It’s exact in mid-March & then again in Nov & December. There is already the Leo-Rising Aquarian Rugger Stud & an Ariean so bats & Uranian i can barely begin to explain it/him.  Uranus-Venus transits are fun but weird. All the peeps you attract or whom zig into your life seem to be ultra-attractive & individuated but really bats. As an example, even my Celebrity Crush – Joaquin Phoenix – has apparently gone totally apeshit bats. That is the awesome power of this astro-passage. Unbelievable.

None of my friends are doing Uranus-Venus transits. So, in the spirit of support, I am offering u the chance to join the Uranus-Venus club. All you have to do to join is have a Venus between 21 and 28 degrees of Pisces, Virgo, Sagittarius or Gemini. Also considered Venus in those degrees of Scorpio or Cancer and Capricorn-Taurus.  How do you know your Venus degree? Again, look it up on Astrodienst You all know the Venus glyph & just check out the list of planets in the little box down the left…Look at the number next to the Venus…

If  you are eligible to join the club OR you have interesting Uranus-Venus transit info to share, please comment. It’s a fascinating transit.

Astrology & Vegetarianism

Without sifting through the birthdates of celebrity veggos & vegans (another job for my imaginary astrological intern) – coming up with astrological vegetarian/vegan indicators is guesswork. Anecdotally I know a lot of Pisceans who are veggo & a strong Neptune (ruler of Pisces, compassion, empathy) can also predispose one. There are Scorps who wear fur and relish red meat a la Anna Wintour and there are Scorps such as Joaquin Phoenix, who are strict vegans & do stunning docos like Earthlings about it.

You could also argue that it is Uranus/Uranian if the choice is less compassionate & more New-Agie logic re resources et al. And indeed, Aquarian veggos also seem to disproportionately high. I’m thinking Neptune in Pisces (2011!) will see a big spike in the veggo ranks…i note that nearly all the females in my teenage son’s set are vegetarian – the Pluto in Scorpio generation girls, not sure where that’s coming from exactly. And, whilst i am in this sort of mood, Neptune is also said to rule oil (though to me Oil feels Plutonic – from under the earth, wars fought over it et al) and this article by Michael Moore on Planet Waves re the bankruptcy of GM is fascinating & thought provoking.

Go the Moon in Scorp-Mars-Pluto-Vibe!

Dark Moon In Scorpio

It’s the Dark Moon in Scorpio! So the astro-atmosphere is spooked up, intense, ruthless & with a subtle sexy edge of paranoia. Very good day for scheming, having insights to do with sex/power + dabbling in the occult. Martial arts also. Whatever you’re doing, you’re intense about. But it’s a Dark Moon so brill for fast-processing (Scorp-style) of ye olde merde. What would a Scorp do?  Send a quick note scribbled in blood and by Carrier-Bat???  Turn off his/her phone and refuse to speak to anyone until after next Monday’s Eclipse-New Moon???   Note that peeps are intransigent and suspicious today. If you know anyone who already has those tendencies, don’t bug them.

And speaking of Scorps, above is one of my fave Scorpios and definitely fave actor - Joaquin Phoenix. I think he does completely brilliant work in every film he has ever done. I adore him. Even in Signs which was otherwise abysmal, i.m.o.  But lately, he has forsworn acting and altered his looks quite radically a la this Daily Mail article here & one has to wonder WHAT is Mr Phoenix doing astrologically???

There appears to be no birthtime for him but he’s got an ultra depth-psyched & charismatic Sun, Venus and Mars all together in Scorpio. And close by but in Libra, he has Uranus and Mercury. They’re all in the Via Combusta a.k.a. the Fiery Way, considered malefic by ye olde astrologers but it certainly makes him potent & magic, i.m.o.

Plus my Moon is there so no-way am i going to go all ancient on this being scary…ANYWAY – Joaquin is amazing but without a birthtime, the only major transit i can spot here is that he has Pluto moving to square his Aries Moon. And so that is someone who increasingly will not tolerate anything that is not totally emotionally resonant with his true self, will not do faux anything for even half a second & needs absolute autonomy.

It does not say a thing an in any of my astro books about causing one to grow a huge beard to hide a handsome face. Oh well.

Oh and here is a story about how he debuted his new career as a rapper last Friday.
