Greetings to all this merry Yule! So good to have you with us. This looks like a fascinating season for astrology this winter! Let’s dive in. The Sun slips into Capricorn December 21, 8:27:20 PM, MST this year. All the planets are within ½ the circle! Mostly bunched up in...
Astrology for Autumn, 2023
Welcome to Mabon! Also known as Second Harvest, this time is grounded in the Fall Equinox occurring now. This is the time of the harvest; grains and fruits–so much from the Earth–and we give thanks! This is the time of Libra, of balance and seeking “relation” with our relations. Mabon...

Greetings All! We have arrived at the beginning of Summer in the North. Warmth and Sun, all things are growing and blooming, fruits and vegetables are on the way, all that wonderful Mead you have brewed is good to go now and festival time is here! It’s time for me...
Astrology for Spring, 2023
Greetings to Spring! After the wild ride many have had in the last few weeks, a new beginning would be welcome! Of course, the year is always a continuous loop, one season feeding into the next, the ups and downs of the planets are often on a different track from...
Astrology for Yule, 2022
Yule this year commences on December 21 at 2:48:12 PM, Mountain time. As you can see in the chart below, everything except the South Node is within an opposition and everything except Mars and the South Node is in the Top half of the chart, indicating that the energy of...
Astrology for Autumn, 2022
Greetings, friends! Mabon, the season of the Equinox is upon us. On September 22, 7:03:31 PM, MDT the Sun slips into Libra. Day and night are equal. The Sun has dropped below the horizon already, marking the change quickly. Also, all but the Sun, Moon, Venus, and Mars are retrograde...
Astrology for Summer Solstice 2022
Welcome to Summer! Though it does mark the beginning of the shortening of days, Summer is still a glorious time. Warm, sweet evenings, hot days, festivals, and good times. The sky shows us some possibilities and a sober reminder of our times. The pattern is called a bowl; all points...
Astrology for Beltane 2022
I’m here with your Beltane horoscopes, good pagan folk. It’s the merriest time of the year! Life is springing forth in leaf and blossom, birds are gloriously singing, knowing what is coming. The days get longer and warmer. It feels as if the world is born anew! Astrologically, the planets...
Astrology for Spring Equinox 2022
Just recently, we saw a lovely full Moon in Virgo, with the Sun in Pisces. Yes, I know, pre-Eostara. However, that ties into other things going on which are pretty big this period. As you can see in the chart, Neptune and Jupiter are running very close together. In fact...
Astrology for Imbolc 2022
Imbolc (also know as Candlemas) this year astrologically is on February 3, 2022, 1:50:36 PM, MST. As usual, the observance does not directly connect to the placement of anything in the sky. But then, our ancestors, I suppose, did not bother with such things. Midpoints between solstices and equinoxes may...
Astrology for Yule, 2021
The themes of dying and being reborn are universal around the world. Indeed, the very fact of the Solar cycle as it is, with shorter days changing to longer; moving from less to more light; the analogy of death and rebirth echoed through our existence, lead us to the marking...
Astrology for Samhain, 2021
Samhain, the day of the cross quarter between Fall Equinox and Winter Solstice, falls this year on November 6th, 10:58:50 p.m. MDT.

Beltane (at the midpoint between the beginnings of Spring and Summer) comes at 0:47:10 a.m. Mountain Time this year. We find the Sun in the 4th house, nestled between Uranus and Venus; suggesting a rather interesting relationship with those we live with (or would want to). The Sun is pulling...

Astrology for Imbolc 2021
Imbolc this year begins on Feb 3, just before 8 AM, MST. In many traditions the mid winter is observed as a waiting time, a time of promised spring which has not fully arrived yet but we trust it will. Days are getting longer now, those warmer winter days are...
