 Hey everyone, It’s been a while, hope you’ve all had a wonderful last few months! This newsletter will delve into the mysteries of the two upcoming eclipses. In general, eclipses are not a good time to start something new, but are really useful for spiritual endeavors. This is true especially for the 3 days before and after the eclipse, and is also true regardless on whether you can see the eclipse or not. In addition to this, eclipses can affect certain individuals for up to 6 months if it occurs over a prominent place in their birth chart. To learn more about eclipses, please tap here. But first, Elon Musk’s biography was released last week, and it said he was born at 7:30AM, and so of course I had to take a look at his chart. This is tangentially related to eclipses, so bear with me! Here’s his birth chart:  Elon was in his Mercury sub-period from April 2020 to October 25th 2022 (table on the bottom right), and his natal Mercury is very strongly-placed in a constellation called Punarvasu, a constellation symbolized by a quiver of arrows. This symbol can bring wealth through investments - deploying capital in the equity market can be a physical manifestation of the symbolic archer drawing an arrow from his or her quiver and shooting it at its target. Well, in late 2021, Elon sold $16.4 billion worth of shares, but because he continued meet his milestones and exercised more options, in February 2022, it was reported that his stake in Tesla grew to 17% of the company. So, a very good period for generating wealth through shares. Then, on October 25th 2022, Elon went into his Rahu / Ketu planetary cycle. There is a story that fleshes out what Rahu and Ketu bring into your life. Rahu was once a demon, and his greatest desire was to drink Soma, the Nectar of the Gods, a drink that would make him immortal. However, he was not allowed to partake because he was a demon; only the Devas (the celestial beings of our universe) were qualified to drink Soma. So, like any good demon, Rahu put on a disguise and snuck into a big ceremony where all the Devas were drinking Soma. He succeeded, but as he was drinking Soma, the Sun and the Moon realized he was an imposter, and told Vishnu. Well, Vishnu isn’t one to act slowly, and immediately sliced off Rahu’s head with his Chakram (spinning disc weapon). The head of the now immortal being became Rahu, and the rest of the body became Ketu. A mixed result for Rahu - you win some, you lose some I guess. Rahu was the universe’s first drug addict - he wanted the Soma at whatever the cost, and so Rahu symbolizes unlimited desires. Ketu is sort of the opposite - he is like the universe’s first Buddhist monk - without any desires, but he feels chronically lost and disappointed because he doesn’t have a head (understandable). Eclipses happen when a new Moon or a full Moon takes place near transiting Rahu and Ketu - according to the story, they take revenge on the Sun and Moon for being snitches by eating them during an eclipse. (I told you this was tangentially related to eclipses!) Back to Elon’s Ketu sub-period, which began on October 25th 2022 - you would expect this period to be a lot less financially lucrative for him compared to the previous period because Ketu is chronically disappointed and often feels lost. Well, he closed his acquisition of Twitter on October 27th 2022, just 2 days into his Ketu sub-period, and we all know how much of a dumpster fire that has been. He paid $44 billion, and an estimate in May 2023 valued Twitter at just $14.75 billion. So, you can see how the planetary cycles can make very sharp predictions about a person’s life. After all these years giving readings, it’s still amazing to me every single time I see astrology working so nicely. There’s definitely a plan for everyone! Eclipses Okay so now, onto the eclipses! The first eclipse takes place on October 14th 2023 from 11:03AM to 4:56PM EDT (Oct 15th 2:03AM to 7:56AM in Melbourne). This is a solar eclipse, visible in most of North and South America:  This solar eclipse is taking place in the constellation of Chitra, whose meaning is the multicolored or a work of art, and is ruled by Tvashtar, the celestial architect who designed the palaces for the gods and crafted their tools and weapons. It is a constellation full of creative energy, but when combined with the energy of the solar eclipse, this eclipse has the potential to disrupt our creative flow. A solar eclipse symbolizes our underlying consciousness (the Sun) being covered up by our emotions (the Moon), and so instead of trying to force ourselves to be productive or creative during this eclipse, it’s better to channel those propensities inwards, and try and learn more about the true source of our creativity deep inside all of us. The second eclipse takes place on October 28th 2023 from 2:01PM to 6:27PM EDT (Oct 29th 5:01AM to 9:27AM in Melbourne). This is a lunar eclipse, visible in most of the world:  The eclipse is taking place in a constellation called Ashwini, whose Shakti or energy is the power to reach things quickly. Combining this energy with the lunar eclipse brings a tendency for us to rush unnecessarily, or make our minds a little messy. So, I would definitely recommend against making any major decisions during the week of this eclipse. Instead of starting something new, this eclipse is perfect for healing - Ashwini is ruled by the Ashwini Kumaras, the twin gods who were the universe’s first pharmacists. Consequently, the period of time around this eclipse is perfect for healing therapies of all kinds, helping us rejuvenate the divine temple that is our body so it is more capable in handling the rigors of everyday life.
That’s it from me for now - I hope these eclipses bring you deeply spiritual and wonderful experiences, Ken  Hey everyone, Hope April is treating you wonderfully! This newsletter will delve into the mysteries of the two upcoming eclipses. In general, eclipses are not a good time to start something new, but are really useful for spiritual endeavors. This is true especially for the 3 days before and after the eclipse, and is also true regardless on whether you can see the eclipse or not. In addition to this, eclipses can affect certain individuals for up to 6 months if it occurs over a prominent place in their birth chart. To learn more about eclipses, please tap here. The first eclipse takes place from April 19th 2023 9:34PM to April 20th 3:00AM EST (April 20th 11:34AM to 5:00PM in Melbourne). This is a total solar eclipse, visible in most of Australia and South East Asia:  The eclipse is taking place in a constellation called Ashwini Nakshatra, whose Shakti or energy is the power to reach things quickly. Combining this energy with the solar eclipse, which symbolizes our underlying consciousness (the Sun) being covered up by our emotions (the Moon), this eclipse has the potential to make us rush unnecessarily, or make our minds a little messy. So, I would definitely recommend against making any major decisions during the week of this eclipse. Instead of starting something new, this eclipse is perfect for healing - Ashwini is ruled by the Ashwini Kumaras, the twin gods who were the universe’s first pharmacists. Consequently, the period of time around this eclipse is perfect for healing therapies of all kinds, helping us rejuvenate the divine temple that is our body so it is more capable in handling the rigors of everyday life. The second eclipse takes place on May 5th 2023 from 11:14AM to 3:32PM EST (May 6th 1:14AM to 5:32AM in Melbourne). This is a penumbral Lunar Eclipse, visible in most of the world outside of the Americas:  This eclipse is taking place in a constellation called Vishakha Nakshatra, ruled by two beings of polar opposite personalities - Indra, the King of the Devas / celestial beings, symbolizing ambition and achieving material desires, and Agni, the god of fire, representing our inner consciousness and universal divine awareness. There is a story in the Mahabharata which involves both these celestial beings - once upon a time, there was a human King named Swetaki who decided to perform 12 years of continuous fire sacrifices. As a result of this, Agni, the god of fire, had to eat sacrificial oils for 12 long years, and got indigestion. He was feeling really sick, and Brahma, the creator of the universe, told him to eat / burn the Khandava forest as medicine - the Khandava forest had become a gathering place for demonic entities, and so Agni would also be helping with the cleansing of the forest.
However, just as Agni started burning the forest, Indra stepped in and caused rain to fall, stopping the burning, because he had some friends in the forest. Even though Indra was the King of the celestial beings, he represents ambition, and so he could relate to some of the demonic beings living there (the “demons” in the Vedic system are just wayward beings who focused too much on enjoying their material lives, instead of pursuing higher spiritual endeavors. Ultimately in time, they will also return to the source). This is when Krishna and Arjuna stepped in, and helped Agni complete the burning of the forest. I think the story is a metaphor for universal divine awareness (Agni) ultimately dissolving our material desires (the demons in the forest), despite our ambitions sometimes getting in the way (Indra). And so a great way to mark this second eclipse is to delve deeper into your awareness and consciousness, and watch your desires and emotions dissolve into your true self. That’s it from me for now - I hope these eclipses bring you deeply spiritual and wonderful experiences, Ken  Hey everyone, Hope you’re having a wonderful week! In this newsletter, we’ll be going through the upcoming Jupiter / Uranus conjunction in Aries, which is a major theme that will be building through the next 12 months (April 22nd 2023 to May 1st 2024). As the conjunction of these two outer planets happens only once every ~14 years or so, this is an especially notable transit in the way it helps define a certain time period. Jupiter is the planet of expansion, of growth, and of progress, and Uranus is the planet of revolution, liberation, technology, and the sudden unexpected breakup of structures. Through history, their alignments (both conjunctions and oppositions) mark the start of long-term cultural, technological, creative, and emancipatory developments. To give you an idea of what this transit can bring, I have picked out a few historical examples of when Jupiter and Uranus were aligned in the sky, and have summarized them into 4 main themes:
These 4 themes are something to watch out for over the next 12 months. In the area of technological advancements, it seems one of the big advancements during this 2023 / 2024 conjunction will be generative AI, like what Microsoft has built into its Bing search engine and its Office 365 suite. I think many other tech companies will be building similar tools into their platforms in the coming months, making it much more widely available. Here’s a picture DALL·E 2 made - the prompt was “A painting from Vedic India depicting a Jupiter Uranus conjunction”:  Last thing before we get to the personal predictions - if you’ve ever wanted to make your mark on the world - for example, if you wanted to plan the next big protest, work on the next big technological advancement, or if you wanted to write the next culturally defining work of art, these next 12 months are going to be your time to get to work!
Mini Predictions And in addition to shaping the big macro energies of the world, this Jupiter / Uranus transit through Aries also impacts you personally. There are many other astrological factors that fill out the picture of your life (most of it individualized from your birth chart), but this transit will show one small perspective. I have arranged these mini predictions according to your Vedic Sun signs; you can find your Vedic Sun sign by finding which date range includes your birthday. Please read the birth times carefully as your Vedic Sun sign can be different from your Western one (reason here). If you know your Vedic Ascendant sign or your Vedic Moon sign, the predictions corresponding to those signs are also applicable to you. Aries (April 14th to May 14th): This transit may make you feel a strong urge to break free from old patterns and embrace new experiences, and may also bring you positive opportunities in life. It may also make you feel more confident, and allow you to make changes wherever you need to in your life. Taurus (May 15th to June 14th): This transit can bring powerful breakthroughs in spirituality. Jupiter and Uranus are transiting your house of spirituality, making this a great time for self-discovery, potentially leading to shifts in your belief system. You can also use this transit to explore your unconscious mind and surface any repressed fears or emotions. Gemini (June 14th to July 16th): This transit is taking place in your house of friendships and groups of people. It can bring opportunities for personal and professional growth in areas like networking, collaboration, and community involvement, especially in groups of people who are similarly progressive or technology-minded. All of this makes it a great time for you to go out and meet more people! Cancer (July 17th to August 16th): This transit is taking place in your house of career and public image. It can bring opportunities for personal and professional growth, and can also bring an experience of abundance and expansion at work. Because of Uranus’s influence, these opportunities can come suddenly and unexpectedly, and / or can bring a desire for greater independence and freedom at your workplace. Leo (August 17th to September 16th): This transit can bring a tendency for you to expand your personal worldview and to learn new things. It’s a good time to broaden your horizons by seeking knowledge from books, institutions, teachers, traveling, or ceremonies. Because of Uranus’s influence, the knowledge can come suddenly and unexpectedly, and / or may push you to take risks to pursue your desires. Virgo (September 17th to October 16th): This transit can bring you sudden increases of wealth, whether through bonuses, inheritance, or from your partner. It is also a good time to explore your unconscious mind and surface any repressed fears or emotions you may have stored in your psyche - the Uranus / Jupiter energy can bring sudden breakthroughs that allow you to break free from old patterns. Libra (October 17th to November 15th): This transit can bring you sudden and unexpected success in both one-to-one client and romantic relationships. It also brings you a tendency to attract partners that are unconventional in some way. All of this makes it a great time for you to go out and meet more people! Scorpio (November 16th to December 15th): This transit can bring beneficial changes to your work and health routine, especially if you use technology or some new innovative technique to implement those changes. And if you are suffering from a chronic illness, the transit may even bring opportunities for you to suddenly heal from what ails you. All of this makes this period a good time to examine your work and health routine, and see where it can be improved. Sagittarius (December 16th to January 14th): This transit can bring a period of sudden growth and expansion in your creativity, self-expression, and love life. Jupiter’s and Uranus’s transit here brings abundance and revolution with all creative pursuits, including even the act of creating a child (and with Uranus transiting here, it may be a surprise child!). This is a good time to explore new creative pursuits and work on existing creative projects, and if you’re single, it is also a good time to go out and meet more people. Capricorn (January 15th to February 12th): This transit can bring a period of sudden and significant change and growth in your home, personal life, and / or family relationships. Jupiter and Uranus’s energies can create a feeling of being compelled to break free from old patterns and embrace new possibilities for personal growth and emotional fulfillment, and these themes can manifest in a remodeled relationship with your parents, buying a new home or renovating an existing one, and / or with the general reorganization of the foundations of your life. Aquarius (Feb 13th March 14th): This transit can bring a period of sudden and significant changes in communication, short-distance travel, or learning style. Jupiter can bring expansion and growth, encouraging you to seek new learning opportunities and to broaden your knowledge. Because of Uranus’s influence, the types of knowledge / short-distance travel you may gravitate towards will probably be a little non-mainstream and off the beaten path, so this period is a great time for you to embrace the weird and wonderful of our world. Pisces (March 15th to April 13th): This transit can bring sudden and unexpected periods of financial growth and expansion. You may find yourself more confident in your ability to earn money and to manage your resources. And lastly, this transit can also push you to reevaluate priorities and consider new ways of defining success. Take care, and enjoy this transit!  Hey everyone, Hope you’re having having a wonderful week! In this newsletter, I wanted to highlight a period of about 3 weeks, when Venus joins Jupiter in Pisces. Long time readers of this newsletter will know that Jupiter has been transiting through Pisces since April 14th 2022, and will leave Pisces on April 21st 2023. From February 16th to March 11th 2023, Venus joins the party in Pisces briefly, making for an extremely positive 3 weeks. Jupiter is the planet of expansion, of growth, and of progress, and Venus is the planet of love, relationships, beauty, and material enjoyment. In Pisces, both planets express their energies at an extremely high level, sharing their love and light with the whole world. An example of a person with their Jupiter and Venus in Pisces is Drew Barrymore, who has both planets in her 11th house:  This placement in Barrymore’s chart brings great wealth, and a wonderful relationship with a large community of people. In her case, these placements expressed themselves as making her a famous and wealthy actress. Barrymore was born during her Jupiter main period, which emphasized this favorable placement even while she was still a baby. This manifested clearly in her life - she was cast in her first role when she was just 11 months old, and at age 7, achieved widespread fame when the movie ET was released.
So, back to your life - how does this transit affect you personally? I’ve written out some mini-predictions to try and answer this question. Of course, there are many other factors that fill out the picture of your life (most of it individualized from your birth chart), but this transit will show one small perspective. I have arranged these mini predictions according to your Vedic Sun signs; you can find your Vedic Sun sign by finding which date range includes your birthday. Please read the birth times carefully as your Vedic Sun sign can be different from your Western one (reason here). If you know your Vedic Ascendant sign or your Vedic Moon sign, the predictions corresponding to those signs are also applicable to you. Aries (April 14th to May 14th): This transit may bring nice experiences with your spiritual practice, so if you find yourself drawn to practices like meditation or yoga or ceremony, you may find this period to be especially productive in your spiritual growth. It may help you uncover greater intuitive ability, and / or bring inspiration from the depths of your unconscious mind. Taurus (May 15th to June 14th): This transit brings nice experiences with groups of people, and also brings positive social connections with your community and society. If one of your new year’s resolutions was to make new friends or build out your network, you may find that putting yourself out there and meeting more people during this transit will be especially productive in actualizing this desire. Gemini (June 14th to July 16th): This transit can bring opportunities for professional growth and career success. You may find yourself taking on new responsibilities or receiving recognition for your work during this time. This transit can also bring nicer relationships with your boss and coworkers, which can be used as a springboard that benefits you beyond the duration of this transit. Cancer (July 17th to August 16th): This transit can bring a tendency for you to expand your personal worldview and to learn new things. It’s a good time to broaden your horizons by seeking knowledge from books, institutions, teachers, traveling, or ceremonies. It’s also a good time to explore new ideas or new places, and develop a more expansive understanding of both the material and spiritual realms. Leo (August 17th to September 16th): This transit can bring a time of transformation and change, both psychologically and externally. You can use the energies of this transit to plumb the depths of your psyche and develop a better understanding of yourself, ushering in a period of personal growth and emotional well-being. Alternatively, if you have anything in your life that is no longer serving you, you can use this transit to make changes externally in your life as well. Virgo (September 17th to October 16th): This transit can bring amazing experiences with romantic relationships, client relationships, and partnerships of all kinds. It brings expansion, abundance, harmony, beauty, and charm to these areas of life. If you’re single, it’s a good time to go on more dates; if you’re looking for more clients, it’s a good time to advertise; and if you’re looking for a good business partner, it’s a good time to go out and meet more people. Enjoy! Libra (October 17th to November 15th): This transit can bring improvements to your health situation and / or health routine. If you’re struggling with any health issues, you should see some improvement through this transit. And if you’re already really healthy, this is a good period to improve your health routine - the transit brings a nice tailwind in all matters related to health. Scorpio (November 16th to December 15th): This transit can bring a period of growth and expansion in your creativity, self-expression, and love life. Venus’s and Jupiter’s transit here brings abundance, beauty, and harmony with all creative pursuits, including even the act of creating a child. This is a good time to explore new creative pursuits, and work on existing creative projects, and if you’re single, it is also a good time to go out and meet more people. Sagittarius (December 16th to January 14th): This transit can bring an expansion in your home life and family relationships. It is supportive in improving your relationships with family members, or with enjoying their company and have a good time with them. It is also a good time to make any improvements to your home that you’ve been putting off, like buying a new couch or meditation cushion or something. Lastly, this transit can bring a tailwind to improving your emotional wellbeing, and so if you’ve been particularly stressed or unhappy over the last few months, a bit of introspection can go a long way during this period. Capricorn (January 15th to February 12th): This transit can bring a time of growth and expansion with your communication and learning. It can bring you more charming and charismatic speech, and more harmonious relationships with the people around you. It can also bring a nice tailwind if you’re trying to learn something. Lastly, it can also bring you beautiful and abundant experiences with short-distance travel, so it’s a great time for you to set out on a road trip. Aquarius (Feb 13th March 14th): This transit can bring wealth and abundance to your life. Jupiter and Venus are transiting your house of family, of money, and of food, bringing nice material experiences and improvements in these areas of life. If you’ve been gunning for a raise at work, or have any launches planned in your business, this will be a good time to commence. Pisces (March 15th to April 13th): This transit brings expansive and positive experiences with your self-expression and physical appearance. It can temporarily make you seem even more charming and good looking than you normally are, and make you even more likable by your friends, acquaintances, and coworkers. It is a good time to go out and network, to meet more people, and to make progress in your career, all of which can be used as a springboard that benefits you beyond the duration of this transit. Hope you enjoy these very pleasant 3 weeks, till next time! Ken  Hey everyone, Happy 2023! I hope you had a wonderful time with your friends and family through the holidays, and I wish you a healthy, happy, and fulfilling year ahead. For the first month of 2023, I have a quick tip for you if you’ve set any new year’s resolutions: 2023 begins with Mars and Mercury both in retrograde, which signifies some challenges with starting something new. Mars and Mercury stations direct on January 13th and January 19th respectively, so my suggestion is to build in a 3 week buffer to any resolutions you may have set for yourself :) In this newsletter, we’ll be going through Saturn’s transit through Aquarius, which begins on January 17th, 2023. Saturn takes 2-3 years to go through each sign, and will leave Aquarius in March 2025. Saturn is the planet of hard work, discipline, and patience - it carries the energies that most people find challenging to connect with, and so it often doesn’t get picked when people are choosing their favorite planets. Actually, Saturn’s big contribution is that he strengthens the areas of your life that he touches by challenging it to be better - we can only build a strong foundation, accomplish difficult goals, and improve ourselves by using Saturn’s energies to actualize and execute. So, in general, wherever Saturn is transiting in your birth chart will experience some initial challenges during the start of this period, and if you work hard and do your homework, that area of life will start to improve as the transit progresses. The way Saturn’s energies are expressed in Aquarius is that Saturn grounds the abstract ideas that Aquarius brings, allowing these ideas to be brought into conscious thought, and ultimately be actualized and implemented. A great example of this in action is in Carl Jung’s chart, who has his Saturn in Aquarius in his birth chart:  Consistent with his natal Saturn in Aquarius, Jung had a process to help clients actualize abstract ideas, a process he called individuation. This is where he helped clients integrate their unconscious thoughts into their conscious self. Jung believed that this process was necessary for a person to reach their full potential. He also used techniques such as dream analysis and imagination to explore the unconscious mind, helping a person bring their innermost thoughts and feelings to the surface, and consequently, guiding that person to be conscious of his or her thoughts and desires. What a nice way to express the energies of Saturn in Aquarius!
So, back to your life - how does Saturn transiting through Aquarius affect you? I’ve written out some mini-predictions to try and answer this question. Of course, there are many other factors that fill out the picture of your life (most of it individualized from your birth chart), but this transit will show one small perspective. I have arranged these mini predictions according to your Vedic Sun signs; you can find your Vedic Sun sign by finding which date range includes your birthday. Please read the birth times carefully as your Vedic Sun sign can be different from your Western one (reason here). If you know your Vedic Ascendant sign or your Vedic Moon sign, the predictions corresponding to those signs are also applicable to you. Aries (April 14th to May 14th): This transit brings a heaviness on your relationships with groups of people, including your community and society. You may feel a sense of responsibility to contribute to the greater good, and to use your unique talents and abilities to make a positive impact. A great way to mitigate this is to be conscious with how you balance your individual desires with the needs of the group. And on a positive note, if you work hard and use your talents to benefit your community / company, this transit can also bring a raise after some initial obstacles. Taurus (May 15th to June 14th): This transit will make you work hard! Saturn is transiting your house of career, and you may feel a sense of responsibility at work. You may find that you become more disciplined with your schedule. This transit also brings a need to adapt to new situations and ideas, and may require you to be more open-minded and flexible. The good news is that if you roll up your sleeves and do your homework, you will achieve career success in the second half of this Saturn transit. Gemini (June 14th to July 16th): Saturn will be transiting your house of higher learning, and may drive you to learn and improve your skills and knowledge base. Because Saturn is transiting Aquarius, this transit may also require you to be open-minded with your topic of study, and be flexible with the way it is taught to you. This transit may also bring you more challenging experiences with travel, especially initially in the period, but your experience should improve as the transit progresses. Cancer (July 17th to August 16th): Saturn is transiting your house of transformation and change, and pushes you to take responsibility in removing things that are no longer working in your life, and to build a stronger foundation in the things that are working. As with anything Saturn touches, these changes won’t happen quickly, but with deliberation and discipline, the changes you implement during this period will probably last a long time. Leo (August 17th to September 16th): This transit can bring initial obstacles in with relationships, and the best way to handle this is to use it as an opportunity to build a stronger foundation with all your relationship. There may be a need to assess the balance of give and take within the relationship, and to take responsibility in ensuring the relationship works for both parties. After the initial obstacles are overcome, this Saturn transit can bring a stronger and more committed long-term relationship. Virgo (September 17th to October 16th): This transit has a tendency to bring any existing health issues to the surface, and allow you to address them more directly. It may push you to make adjustments in your daily routine, so that you can schedule in a more disciplined health / wellness / fitness routine into your busy schedule. The good news is that after you address any health issues directly that may arise, this transit can bring better health outcomes as it progresses through time. Libra (October 17th to November 15th): Saturn is transiting through your house of creativity, which suggests that you may need a more disciplined and organized process with your creative endeavors. This include everything creative in your life, from art, to music, to even making babies. During this transit, you may feel pressure to be more productive with your creative endeavors - just relax and stick to your schedule / plan, and everything should work out just fine. Scorpio (November 16th to December 15th): Saturn is transiting your house of the home, which means that you may feel more responsibility with your home and family life. It can indicate a need for you to be more organized and structured in those areas of life. There may need to be some adjustments in the home environment or family dynamics to meet these increased demands, but if you do your homework and get organized, this transit should bring increased maturity and stability with the home as it progresses. Sagittarius (December 16th to January 14th): Saturn is transiting your house of short-distance travel and errands, and this may push you to become more organized with managing your daily schedule. This house is also related to communication, which could indicate a tendency to be more disciplined or careful with your speech. As the transit progresses, if you become more practiced at organizing your schedule and speaking with intention, these areas of life will be strengthened. Capricorn (January 15th to February 12th): Saturn is transiting your house of finances, which indicates increased pressure on finances at the start of this transit. It may make you more responsible or disciplined with your financial affairs, and push you to improve your financial stability. A really good way to channel these energies productively is to create a disciplined budget, and if you stick to it, you should see a stronger foundation for your finances develop as this transit progresses. Aquarius (Feb 13th March 14th): This transit may bring you an increased sense of responsibility and discipline, specifically with your appearance and how you present yourself to the world. It may also push you to take responsibility in your personal growth and development, and also get more organized with your spiritual practice. A great way to channel this transit’s energies is to build in a spiritual practice into your daily routine, and as this transit progresses, you should start to see this practice bear fruit. Pisces (March 15th to April 13th): This transit may push you to become more disciplined and organized with your spiritual practice, and take responsibility with your inner life and spiritual growth. It may also push you to explore the depths of your unconscious mind, and dissolve any patterns that are no longer serving you. Because Saturn is involved with this transit, a disciplined practice is required here, and if you stick to that practice through the transit, you should see results as it progresses. Happy new year again, till next time!  Hey everyone, Hope everyone is enjoying the nice tailwind from the Jupiter / Saturn co-influence! This newsletter will go through a couple of eclipses coming up in late October / early November, but first, I wanted to briefly plug my newly released Nakshatras course module :) If you’ve received a reading from me (thank you!), you’ll know how much I rely on the Nakshatras when making predictions. The Nakshatras are the 27 Vedic lunar constellations, and have references dating back to at least 7000 BCE. Studying these constellations is like peering into a truly different and wonderful world. The archetypal stories and symbols contained within these stars connect us with a civilization that existed when the ice was still thawing from the last ice age, and despite their antiquity, they still beautifully describe our modern lives. A working knowledge of the Nakshatras is what makes an astrologer a Vedic astrologer, and is essential for any serious Jyotishi. The course will bring depth to your understanding of the Nakshatras, and also by using many example charts, will demonstrate how to use these magnificent constellations in your readings. And in addition to budding astrologers, this course is suitable for everyone - the vast majority of the course describes the stories and symbols contained within the Nakshatras, something that can be enjoyed by anyone who wants to delve deeper into the gods and goddesses of the Vedic civilization. For more information, please tap here. Eclipses Okay so now, onto the eclipses! In general, eclipses are not a good time to start something new, but are really useful for spiritual endeavors. This is true especially for the 3 days before and after the eclipse, and is also true regardless on whether you can see the eclipse or not. In addition to this, eclipses can affect certain individuals for up to 6 months if it occurs over a prominent place in their birth chart. To learn more about eclipses, please tap here. The first eclipse takes place on October 25th 2022 from 4:58AM to 9:03AM EDT (October 25th 7:58PM to Oct 26th 12:03AM in Melbourne). This is a partial solar eclipse, visible in Europe, North Africa, the Middle East, and India:  This eclipse is taking place in a constellation called Swati Nakshatra, whose Shakti or energy is the power to scatter like the wind, and whose desire is to have the freedom to move throughout the worlds. Combined with the partial solar eclipse, which symbolizes our underlying consciousness (the Sun) being covered up by our emotions (the Moon), this eclipse has the potential to make our minds a little messy. So, I would definitely recommend against making any major decisions during the week of this eclipse. The solution of all of this is also contained within the Nakshatra - Swati is ruled by Vayu, the god of the wind, and a nice way to channel his energies is by practicing breath work. By focusing on our breath, by stilling the energies and “internal wind” inside our body, we can easily find our inner consciousness and light, and repose in all its glory. Consequently, the period around this eclipse is a perfect time to use our breath to uncover the divine spark of awareness that we all have, and practice making it more prominent throughout our lives. The second eclipse takes place on November 8th 2022 from 3:02AM to 8:57AM EST (Nov 8th 7:02PM to Nov 9th 12:57AM in Melbourne). This is a total lunar eclipse, visible in most of the world outside of Africa and Western Europe:  This eclipse is taking place in a constellation called Bharani Nakshatra, a constellation all about removing things that are no longer useful. The Shakti or energy of Bharani is the power to carry things away, and the constellation is ruled by Yama, the god of death, the celestial being that brings our souls to the next world after we die.
Because of all this symbolism, if you have anything in your life that is longer serving you, you can harness the energies that are present in this eclipse and let them go. A good example of this in action is Carl Jung, who has his Moon in Bharani - he used the energies of Bharani to help his patients let go of their suffering. With the light of the Sun partially obscured during this solar eclipse, you can see the darker areas of your energy body, and release and dissolve any emotions that are causing blocks inside you. That’s it from me for now - I hope these eclipses bring you deeply spiritual and wonderful experiences, Ken  Hey everyone, I can’t believe we’re already at the halfway point of 2022 - time flies when you’re having fun! (and doubly fast when you have a 2 year old at home..) Hope you’re all having a wonderful 2022 so far! Before we get into the main topic of this newsletter, let’s briefly go through the astrology of our challenged supply chains. A few months ago, in April 2022, Jupiter moved into its home sign of Pisces, bringing its natural abundance and positivity into the world. I thought this would have been just what the doctor ordered after 2 gloomy pandemic years, and Jupiter definitely delivered - most economies around the world bounced back strongly after the COVID restrictions fell away. However, supply chains have not been able to keep up, and this was exacerbated with the energy shortages stemming from Putin’s invasion. As we have all seen, this is a recipe for inflation, and as central banks raise interest rates, a possible recession looms. My prediction astrologically is that I think growth will start to slow as we get closer to April 2023, when Jupiter leaves Pisces. I also think that the inflation problems will begin to fade to the background as we get closer to the middle of 2023. As Jupiter moves out of its home sign of Pisces in April 2023, our overheated economy will probably start to cool. Who knew exiting a pandemic would be so complicated! Jupiter in Pisces, Saturn in Capricorn From July 13th 2022 to January 18th 2023, Saturn will once again be transiting through Capricorn. This will be the final time in 30 years that Saturn will be in Capricorn, so enjoy it while it lasts. While Saturn hangs out in Capricorn for the next 6 months, the planet will be aspecting (looking at) Jupiter in Pisces, and both Saturn and Jupiter will be co-aspecting the constellation of Cancer. There’s a saying in Vedic Astrology that Jupiter brings optimism and Saturn brings actualization, and so when both planets are looking at the same sign, it activates that sign in a way that produces noticeable results. And so consequently, over the next 6 months till January 18th 2023, the signs of Pisces and Cancer will be activated by both Jupiter’s and Saturn’s aspects, and these energies will bring an uplift in the areas of life where Pisces and Cancer touch in your personal birth chart. As an example, let’s look at Lisa Kudrow’s birth chart, the actress who played Phoebe in Friends (“Smelly cat, smelly cat…”) -  In her chart, Jupiter is in Pisces in her 10th house, her house of career, and Saturn is in Capricorn, the same astrological configuration mentioned above. This leads to the double Jupiter / Saturn influence on both Kudrow’s house of career, and also her 2nd house (money), where the constellation of Cancer falls. This is a fortunate configuration to have in a birth chart, tying together career and wealth, and enabling the person to earn money easily from career. And this has definitely come true in Lisa’s career as an actress.
So, back to your life - how does the double Jupiter / Saturn influence on Cancer and Pisces affect you? I’ve written out some mini-predictions to try and answer this question. Of course, there are many other things that fill out the picture of your life (most of it individualized from your birth chart), but this transit will show one small perspective. I have arranged these mini predictions according to your Vedic Sun signs; you can find your Vedic Sun sign by finding which date range includes your birthday. Please read the birth times carefully as your Vedic Sun sign can be different from your Western one (reason here). If you know your Vedic Ascendant sign or your Vedic Moon sign, the predictions corresponding to those signs are also applicable to you. Aries (April 14th to May 14th): The transit is a great time to build a stronger foundation for your spiritual progress. It’s a good time to delve deeper into your subconscious and to decide what’s useful to retain going forward. Alternatively / additionally, this transit brings momentum for you to move homes. Taurus (May 15th to June 14th): This transit brings you an ability to achieve your goals and earn more money, especially if your job involves short-distance travel and / or long lists of errands and tasks. It can also bring nice experiences with communicating with groups of people. Gemini (June 14th to July 16th): This transit temporarily brings a similar effect to the configuration found in Lisa Kudrow’s birth chart. So, the next 6 months will be a good time to focus on your career, as you may enjoy greater momentum in building wealth throughout your life. Cancer (July 17th to August 16th): This transit is a great time to learn things or teach things. Jupiter has been transiting through your house of higher learning since April 2022, already bringing an uplift with your ability to digest knowledge and concepts. For the next 6 months, this tendency is heightened with a more practical focus. So, instead of learning things theoretically, these next 6 months are a great time for you to put what you’ve learned into practice. Leo (August 17th to September 16th): This transit creates a tendency for you to change things in your life, especially related to your spiritual practice. Is there anything in your practice that is no longer working, or is feeling a bit stale? Maybe now’s the time to try out other practices and traditions, and figure out how to re-shape your practice to match your current situation. Virgo (September 17th to October 16th): This transit gives you wonderful experiences with friends, partners, acquaintances, and coworkers. Your relationships with everyone around you should see a nice uplift. In addition to all that, if you see clients in your career, you may get a raise. Libra (October 17th to November 15th): This transit positively impacts two areas of your life: health and career. It’s a great time to address any health issues that are bothering you, as this transit provides strong momentum in improving your general health and vitality. Ditto with career - this transit gives you a greater tendency to succeed at your job. Scorpio (November 16th to December 15th): This transit brings you more success with learning or teaching / advising on your subject of choice. In addition to that, this transit also brings you a tendency to have better experiences in all creative endeavors and projects. And lastly, it also brings you a tailwind if you’re trying to have children. Sagittarius (December 16th to January 14th): This transit activates the house of the home and the house of change, bringing strong momentum for you to buy a house and move. If you’re not looking to move, this transit may give you a tendency to improve your home in some way, or make some changes around the home to suit your personal needs better. Capricorn (January 15th to February 12th): This transit is very beneficial for your relationships. If you’re single, this is a great time for you to go out and meet people. If you’re in a long-term relationship, this transit provides nice experiences communicating with your partner, and a more joyous relationship overall. If you see clients one-to-one, this transit also activates your ability to attract more clients. Aquarius (Feb 13th March 14th): This transit activates your house of food, and also your house of health, giving you momentum if you wish to optimize your diet towards more healthy outcomes. It also gives you a tailwind if you’re trying to get into an exercise routine or something similar. Pisces (March 15th to April 13th): This transit makes you more abundant, more positive, and more open to receiving the gifts the universe has to offer. It makes you more likable and able to attract the help of other people. In addition to that, this transit also gives you a tailwind in all creative endeavors in your life. I hope you enjoy the nice things this transit brings, till next time! Ken  Hey! I hope you’re having a good month so far, and I hope Jupiter’s transit through Pisces has brought you an abundance of optimism and cheer. This newsletter will cover the two upcoming eclipses, but first, I have something really exciting to announce… Jyotish classes! I’ve always felt that knowing Vedic Astrology was a huge gift, and I’ve wanted to share as much as I can. It’s an open secret amongst Vedic Astrologers that the act of giving a reading is cleansing to both the client and the astrologer. Over the years, I’ve had readings where I’ve felt a very bright light temporarily turn on in my mind, and other readings where I’ve felt a fiery heat well up in my spine, to the point where I’m sometimes drenched in perspiration by the end of the reading. As I apply the Jyotish techniques in a reading, I’ve always felt like there’s something else happening, something that I don’t yet fully understand. I’ve always wanted to share these experiences with more people, and this course is my way of doing so. It is a very practical course that teaches you how to read charts, enabling you to give readings in a short amount of time. It combines the knowledge in the Jyotish texts with my own experience giving readings, and guides you to apply these very ancient techniques in a modern context. So, whether you’re a future professional Vedic Astrologer, or you’re a spiritual seeker wanting to learn more about the eye of the Vedas, or you’re just wanting to decipher for yourself the mysterious connection between the heavens with your life, I think you’ll really like this course. For more information, please tap here. Oh, and Class 1 is free, please check that out here if you’re interested. Eclipses Okay so now, onto the eclipses! In general, eclipses are not a good time to start something new, but are really useful for spiritual endeavors. This is true especially for the 3 days before and after the eclipse, and is also true regardless on whether you can see the eclipse or not. In addition to this, eclipses can affect certain individuals for up to 6 months if it occurs over a prominent place in their birth chart. To learn more about eclipses, please click here. The first eclipse takes place on April 30th, from 2:45PM to 6:38PM EDT (May 1st 4:45AM to 8:38AM in Melbourne). This is a partial solar eclipse, visible in parts of South America: This eclipse is taking place in a constellation called Bharani Nakshatra, a constellation all about removing things that are no longer useful. The Shakti or energy of Bharani is the power to carry things away, and the constellation is ruled by Yama, the god of death, the celestial being that brings our souls to the next world after we die. Because of all this symbolism, if you have anything in your life that is longer serving you, you can harness the energies that are present in this eclipse and let them go. A good example of this in action is Carl Jung, who has his Moon in Bharani - he used the energies of Bharani to help his patients let go of their suffering. With the light of the Sun partially obscured during this solar eclipse, you can see the darker areas of your energy body, and release any emotions that are causing blocks inside you. The second eclipse takes place on May 15th, from 9:32PM to 2:50AM EDT (May 16th 11:32AM to 4:50PM in Melbourne). This is a total lunar eclipse, visible in most of the Americas, Africa, and Western Europe: This eclipse is taking place in the first Drekkana of Scorpio, whose image is a beautiful, naked woman without jewelry, who has serpents coiled around her feet. She is displaced from her native land, and has reached a shore after a voyage across a great ocean. This image symbolizes the desire of someone who has nothing. The woman has no clothes, no jewelry, and has no friends or family - she has just been displaced from her home. It’s a Drekkana of very intense desires, of like a primordial hunger that’s impossible to satisfy. Consequently, this eclipse is a great time to reflect on your own desires, and find productive and helpful ways to channel them into the world.
That’s it from me for now, and I hope these eclipses bring you deep spiritual experiences,  Hey everyone, We’re about halfway through a particularly challenging Saturn / Mars conjunction (from February 27th to April 7th). Last newsletter, I alluded to Ukraine and Eastern Europe being particularly sensitive to Saturn / Mars conjunctions in Capricorn - this same conjunction also happened in March 1990 and February 1992, when the Soviet Union was just breaking up, and many people were displaced in the region. In 2022, Putin began his invasion on February 24th, just 3 days before the Saturn / Mars conjunction officially started, and I am hopeful things will start to cool down after the conjunction ends on April 7th. If you live in Eastern Europe, or have any friends or family in Ukraine / Europe, I hope you / they have managed to escape the worst of it. Soon after the end of the Saturn / Mars conjunction, Jupiter is headed into Pisces, where it will stay for a year, from April 14th 2022 to April 21st 2023. Long time readers of the newsletter will know that Jupiter transited into Capricorn in March 2020, coinciding exactly with when shelter-in-place orders were initiated. Jupiter is the planet of abundance, and when it was in Capricorn, its weakest sign, the planet was not able to express its natural abundant and positive energies into the world. In other words, the heavens were indicating a recession, and that was reflected on Earth too. For reference, Jupiter also transited into Capricorn from November 2020 to April 2021, which was a similarly challenging time for the world. Jupiter in Pisces is a completely different experience. Pisces is the sign of imagination and inspiration - it is Jupiter’s home sign, where the planet feels most comfortable, and where its natural buoyancy and cheerfulness can be expressed easily. Pisces is where Jupiter brings expansion and growth, and I believe this may coincide with when some / many of the COVID-related challenges begin to fall away. The one negative COVID carry-over that is unlikely to go away during this period is price inflation. Jupiter is the planet of infinite expansion and is also related to money, and so even as the economy and society recovers, I think the upward pressure on prices is likely to continue well into 2022. As an example of a person who has Jupiter in Pisces, let’s take a look at David Beckham’s chart. Beckham is a soccer player who is well-known all across the world, and his natal Jupiter is in Pisces in the 11th house, the house of groups of people:  This is a combination for fame and wealth. Jupiter is able to express itself strongly in Pisces in his chart, and these energies are manifesting itself as allowing Beckham to being an inspirational figure to his fans.
So, back to your life - how does Jupiter transiting Pisces affect you? I’ve written out some mini-predictions to try and answer this question. Of course, there are many other things that fill out the picture of your life (most of it individualized from your birth chart), but this transit will show one small perspective. I have arranged these mini predictions according to your Vedic Sun signs; you can find your Vedic Sun sign by finding which date range includes your birthday. Please read the birth times carefully as your Vedic Sun sign can be different from your Western one (reason here). If you know your Vedic Ascendant sign or your Vedic Moon sign, the predictions corresponding to those signs are also applicable to you. Aries (April 14th to May 14th): Jupiter is transiting your house of distant places, bringing uplifting experiences with travel, and positive outcomes if you have foreign money sources. This transit also brings positive experiences with spirituality, so a great way to experience this transit is to go on a meditation retreat somewhere nice. Taurus (May 15th to June 14th): Jupiter is transiting your house of groups of people, bringing positive and expansive experiences with your society and community. This transit also brings a tendency for you to get a raise or a promotion from work. Gemini (June 14th to July 16th): Jupiter is transiting your house of career and action, bringing a tendency for you to get a promotion, or just generally do well in your career. It also brings a nicer and more positive relationship with your boss. So, this is a good year to focus a bit more on your work, and make progress in your career. Cancer (July 17th to August 16th): Jupiter is transiting your house of long-distance travel, bringing uplifting experiences with travel to distant places. The transit also brings positive experiences if you’re trying to learn or teach something. Leo (August 17th to September 16th): Jupiter is transiting your house of change, making this period a supportive time for you to remove things that are no longer useful in your life, or to make improvements where they are needed in your life. So, a great way to experience this transit is to imagine what you would like your life to look like in 2023, and gently steer your life towards that brighter future. Virgo (September 17th to October 16th): Jupiter is transiting your house of relationships. If you are single, this year is your year! After a long 2 years of COVID lockdowns, this Jupiter transit is very supportive of you finding your special someone. If you are in a relationship, this transit is also very supportive for your relationships, so enjoy your year with your partner. Libra (October 17th to November 15th): Jupiter is transiting your house of health, bringing an overall tendency for improvements in health, with a couple of exceptions. Because Jupiter is so expansive and positive, there is a tendency for you to also enjoy your food a little too much, in addition to all experiencing the overall improvements in your health situation. If you notice this happening to you, a great way to mitigate this is to practice conscious eating, and bring your meditation practice onto your dining table. Scorpio (November 16th to December 15th): Jupiter is transiting your house of children, bringing positive experiences with your children. If you are trying to have a child, this transit makes it more likely that you will get pregnant. If you aren’t trying to have a child, this transit is supportive for all creative projects, so think about creating and “giving birth” to something amazing! Sagittarius (December 16th to January 14th): Jupiter is transiting your house of the home, bringing positive experiences to your home situation. If you’re trying to buy a house, renovate your existing home, or improve your home in some way, this transit brings a supportive energy for that endeavor. In addition to all things home-related, this Jupiter transit is also supportive of you building a stronger foundation in any project or action you’re trying to do in your life. Capricorn (January 15th to February 12th): Jupiter is transiting your house of communication, bringing more pleasant and positive experiences with communication. It is a great time for you to work on improving your communication ability. In addition to all that, this transit improves your ability to complete your errands and small tasks that tend to fill up a person’s day, so make a list and start ticking it off! Aquarius (Feb 13th March 14th): Jupiter, the planet of abundance, is transiting your house of money, bringing positive experiences with money. If you’re worrying about your money situation in the next year, the good news is, you now probably have one less thing to worry about! This Jupiter transit also brings a tendency to enjoy your food a little too much, and if you notice this happening to you, a great way to mitigate this is to practice conscious eating, and bring your meditation practice to your dinner table. Pisces (March 15th to April 13th): Jupiter is transiting your house of personality. This will bring you a tendency to feel a little more positive and optimistic this year, and to have a generally easier and happier year. In addition to this, this transit also brings the tendency for career improvements. It’s time for you to enjoy Jupiter’s grace! Take care, and and enjoy the upcoming Jupiter boost, Ken  Hey everyone, Happy belated new year! Hope you’re all doing well and had a good start to the year. There is a lot happening in the skies in the first half of this year, and so you’ll be hearing a lot more of me in the coming months! This newsletter edition will focus on Saturn and Mars transiting Capricorn together. COVID-19 Before we get into it, here is a brief COVID astrological update. In the last few newsletters, I have been writing about Jupiter’s transit into Aquarius, which began on November 20th last year. My prediction was that this astrological event would coincide with the beginning of the end of the pandemic. I interpreted this astrological symbol as a positive event, perhaps indicating that the pandemic would start to gently fade away, but instead, it decided to go out with a bang! Just 4 days after the Jupiter transit began, the Omicron variant was reported to the WHO, a variant that is still overloading hospital systems around the world. But if there is a silver lining to all this suffering, it is that Omicron doesn’t penetrate that easily into deep lung tissue. Since November last year, several European countries have already ended all COVID restrictions, and I think a lot of the world will follow in the coming months. And so, I still stand by my prediction that we are seeing the pandemic starting to fade away, and that things will be a lot more normal beginning in mid-April this year, when Jupiter transits into its home sign of Pisces. Saturn and Mars in Capricorn Back to Saturn and Mars - both Saturn and Mars will be transiting Capricorn from February 27th to April 7th 2022, and will be at the exact same spot in the sky on April 5th 2022. Saturn is the planet of discipline, commitment, and building a strong foundation, and Mars is the planet of reckless, fiery action. These are harsh, conflicting energies. To use an analogy, Mars is like James Bond - a little rash and careless, but really good at shooting the bad guys, while Saturn is like the head of MI6 - cold and calculative, but always strategically moving pieces towards the end-goal. Both energies are required for our world to progress, but as you can imagine, if James Bond and his boss were stuck in a room together for a month, everyone would be pretty irritated. Saturn and Mars being together in the same sign bring escalating anger, a desire to move forward quickly while simultaneously slowing down to build a stronger foundation, and a frustration that is driven from a lot of starting and stopping. As an example of Saturn and Mars together in Capricorn, let’s look at Aleister Crowley’s chart:  Crowley was a prominent spiritualist and occultist in the early 1900s, and sticking to the 007 theme of this newsletter, was also rumored to be a spy working for British intelligence. In his chart, Saturn and Mars are in Capricorn in his house of relationships. This would cause a lot of frustrations with his relationships, which makes sense, because he was bisexual, something that would been quite challenging in the late 1800s and early 1900s.
Projecting this Saturn and Mars transit out into the world, I think one thing to watch is the current crisis in Ukraine. Looking back to March / April 1990 and February 1992, when Saturn and Mars were also together in Capricorn, the Soviet Union was breaking apart. While this was really positive for the world longer-term, it didn’t happen smoothly - a lot of people were displaced, and Soviet Union troops were sent into multiple regions to try and smother independence movements. This year, Saturn’s heaviness and Mars’s fiery frustration may materialize in higher-than-average geopolitical tensions, perhaps just in Ukraine, but also possibly in other countries as well. One of the best ways to channel the energies of this transit is to focus on improving the technical aspects of where Saturn and Mars are impacting your life. Although Saturn / Mars transits can result in a lot of frustration, the two planets are also technically and mechanically inclined. For example, around the time of the 1990 and 1992 transits, the world wide web was invented, and the first SMS text message was sent. So, how does this Mars / Saturn transit affect you? I’ve written out some mini-predictions to try and answer this question. Of course, there are many other things that fill out the picture of your life (most of it individualized from your birth chart), but this transit will show one small perspective. I have arranged these mini predictions according to your Vedic Sun signs; you can find your Vedic Sun sign by finding which date range includes your birthday. Please read the birth times carefully as your Vedic Sun sign can be different from your Western one (reason here). If you know your Vedic Ascendant sign or your Vedic Moon sign, the predictions corresponding to those signs are also applicable to you. Aries (April 14th to May 14th): Saturn and Mars are transiting your house of career, and so during this period, you may experience some frustrations at your job - perhaps the project you’re working on is delayed in some way, or your boss gives you a higher than normal amount of pressure. The best thing to do during this period is to focus on the technical aspects of your job - work on building out your Excel model, or optimizing a program, or tidying up the scheduling system, etc. These activities allow the frustrations from this transit to materialize into something positive. Taurus (May 15th to June 14th): Saturn and Mars are transiting your house of long-distance travel, making this period not the best time to do any long trips. If you have something already planned, the trip may provide a good opportunity to practice your patience and tolerance. Other areas of life that may be affected include career and relationships - try and go with the flow, and don’t rush into anything during this period. Gemini (June 14th to July 16th): Saturn and Mars are transiting your eighth house, a house associated with the unconscious mind. This is a combination that makes it a great time for you to work on energy practices like tummo, yoga, tai chi, pranayama, etc. - channel that energy into something positive, and use it to open yourself up to the light. Cancer (July 17th to August 16th): Saturn and Mars are transiting your house of relationships, making it a generally challenging time for relationships. A good way to mitigate this is to incorporate physical activities into your relationship like a boxing class, or a long challenging hike, or swimming in the ocean, etc. This way, the frustrations from this transit have an avenue to be expressed, and your relationship will stay happy. Leo (August 17th to September 16th): Saturn and Mars are transiting your house of health, which may exacerbate any existing health issues you may have, especially issues related to inflammation and / or your back. A good way to channel this transit is to be more disciplined with your exercise routine, especially by exercising and stretching out your back. Or, maybe just take a nice long bath and get a massage, that’s also a great way to spend this transit. Virgo (September 17th to October 16th): This transit impacts your house of children. If you’re trying for a child, it’s best to be patient - you’ll probably have more success after the transit is over. If you already have children, this is a great time to allow them to guide you into becoming a more patient and tolerant person :) If children don’t feature heavily in your life, the transit also impacts your learning and creativity, and a great way to channel this transit’s energies is to focus on the more technical areas of your studies or creative endeavors - less big picture, and more of the nitty gritty details. Libra (October 17th to November 15th): This transit impacts the house of your home. If you’re trying to move houses, this may not be the best time to do so, as this transit tends to bring delays and frustrations with buying or selling property. It is, however, a great time to do minor renovations, and to also perform any required repairs around the house. Scorpio (November 16th to December 15th): This period is a great time to get errands done. Just write them down on a long list, and start checking them off, especially if those errands are technical in nature. On the flip-side, there is a tendency to experience a little more frustration in the area of communication. Just be patient, relax, and budget for more time if you have any important meetings to do during this period. Sagittarius (December 16th to January 14th): Saturn and Mars are transiting your house of money in the bank. If you are trying to save for something, this period may result in some unexpected expenses, resulting in some delays. Just go with the flow - you will get there eventually, you may just need to budget for some extra time to achieve your money goals. Capricorn (January 15th to February 12th): This period is generally a strong and productive time for your career. However, you may need to work extra hard during this period, and may feel at times like the work is a little tedious or overly technical. Just be patient, be diligent and hardworking, and make sure you plan some breaks to relax and recharge. Aquarius (Feb 13th March 14th): This transit could produce delays and obstacles while traveling. If you have something already planned, the trip may provide a good opportunity to practice your patience and tolerance. You may also have especially notable experiences during this period if you regularly practice physical meditation techniques like chi gong or yoga. Pisces (March 15th to April 13th): Saturn and Mars are transiting your house of friends and the community. During this period, you may experience some occasional frustrations with your friends, or with the greater community you belong to. This period is also supportive of financial gains. However, the gains will probably only come after some delays and obstacles. |
