What’s this?

These horoscopes are written for the sidereal sun signs using the stars and not the seasons for calculation.

It’s helpful to read your sidereal rising sign if you know it.

HC and LLC are abbreviations for High Cycle and Lay Low Cycle. These days don’t guarantee things will go well or worse, but are more of an indication of your personal physical and emotional operational levels. Back in the day, we used to call these biorhythms.

Venus Retrograde March 2-April 13

In Pisces, where Venus is exalted and usually just lovely. To put it mildly she isn’t happy now. And when momma ain’t happy, ain’t nobody happy. Women are supposed to be separating from ideas, habits, patterns of behavior and even people who have done them wrong. As unpleasant as that can be, it’s worse if she doesn’t say no to what she should have never have agreed to. Where Venus is transiting your chart, no matter your chromosomes, relationships of all kinds are called in to question. Give up what you shouldn’t be doing anyway.

Mars in Cancer April 3-June 6

If you regularly read this, you may notice Mars transiting Cancer is lasting a little longer than the usually 6-7 weeks. Mars was Retrograde, now Direct but still slow coming out of Gemini. The energy shift in some area of your life is much stronger and prolonged than usual. Where Cancer is in your chart there will be new beginnings and hopefully a separation from what you don’t need anymore. Or it may be ripped away in a most unpleasant way. If your Sun, Moon or Ascendant are in Cancer stay focused around machines and sharp objects!
