practical insight from the heavenly spheres
The astrology of 2023 is a major tone shift, with several planets making ingresses into new signs. Things are about to feel very different.
December 2022’s Full Moon will bring some seriously martial vibes thanks to an exact conjunction of the Moon with Mars, which will also be a striking astronomical occultation visible from most of North America.
November’s Full Moon in Taurus is also a lunar eclipse in exact conjunction with Uranus and opposite Mercury and Venus. Things are going to get really shaken up but maybe we will get some kind of technological breakthrough.
September’s Full Moon promises a dreamy reprieve from the heavy, Saturnian lunation last month. It’s not the best time to charge forward on a new project per se, though it’s a great time for brainstorming and theoretical, blue-sky conversations about your goals and things currently underway. If you feel an urgency to do something, let yourself focus on the big picture stuff rather than trying to figure out all the details and specifics.
This will be a tense, heavy Full Moon conjunct Saturn and in Saturn’s own sign of Aquarius. People with fixed sign Ascendant degrees may feel this more strongly than others.

Twin charts present a particularly fascinating challenge for astrologers.
