Please join me, Madame Zombra, in the future for a little astral travel, if you will. We shall look at the planets in their transits as they occur, not as prophecy but as signposts for our journey. In columns ahead, if you have questions, you may use the Comments section to ask them and I will do my best to answer your query.
Ah, at last a retrograde planet whose regression will be over shortly – in fact, in only two days Saturn will return to forward motion in Aquarius, on October 23, 2022. That should be a cheering note, especially for the four signs who’ve been most affected by this transit: Aquarius (of course), Taurus, Leo and […]

Does a Retrograde Jupiter mean you’ll be penniless during this transit? (Also, if you were born with a Retrograde Jupiter, will you ever have any money at all, no matter how hard you work?) The easy answer to both these questions is, of course, “No.” The full answer to these questions is, “No, but –”

The best way to deal with retrograde planets is to gather as much information as you can about them and then figure out how each particular planet’s apparent backward movement affects you via your Natal Chart. [Side note: A reader wondered last week if you were standing on Mars, would it ever look like Earth

And that’s what I would term this entire situation. Six planets retrograde at one and the same time. Utterly ridiculous. If I knew where to send the paperwork, I’d file a complaint. Thank the stars themselves that Mercury, at least, goes direct this Sunday, October 2, 2022. But Jupiter remains retrograde in Aries, receding until
Recently I moved my office and shook out filing cabinets, many of the files within and hopefully some old, stale ideas. Take a good look at this book cover. Do you recall this book, or had a copy of it? If your parents or even grandparents had it in their library, well, we know what

One person’s clutter is another person’s treasure … and unfortunately, these opposites often seem to wind up married to each other. Be that as it may, let’s take a jaunt through the zodiac and see who hoards, who’s just a packrat, who likes everything in its place, and who can’t find anything without a bloodhound
Some readers have asked for background information on various characteristics of astrology, such as trines, oppositions, squares and so on. This is an excellent suggestion, and one I will gladly fulfill in these columns, but only if, dear readers, you accept my apology for not doing so when I began writing these observations. So many
Now let’s work our way through the rest of the planets to figure out how we may use astrology to predict (ha) the weather. Last week’s column noted traits of the Sun and continued down the list to examine Mars in context with weather conditions. We’ll begin today’s column with Jupiter’s influences. Jupiter, known as

It’s that time of year again for the last Retrograde Mercury of 2021. (And aren’t you thrilled?) Actually, instead of beating your head against the wall, here are some pointers about using this active little planet’s foibles to advantage. Aries: March 21-April 19 Did you get started de-cluttering and then stop? Now is the time

Now we’ll ‘pick up’ where we left off last week. You may enjoy discussing philosophy with a Pisces, but it won’t get that important presentation done by deadline. Consider giving him/her several small but important projects that are necessary for the final outcome to be what corporate wants – but fudge the deadline. Make it
