Wishing you all a wonderful Taurus Full Moon (Monday 04:12UT). Possibly the nicest Full Moon of the year, with the Moon exalted in ♉️ and Venus in her other sign ♎️ she has rulership over. Expecting peace and harmony in a grounded and stable environment. #astrology #Taurus #FullMoon

Venus, a nocturnal, feminine planet, associated with the elements of air and water, moves into Libra, the hot and moist, sanguine, moveable sign of Air. Venus is dignified by sign rulership herein. Expect an increase in love, pleasure, harmony and joy. #astrology #Venus #Libra

From tomorrow, Mercury will be moving Retrograde until 13 November. … just so you know who to blame when things go wrong ... #MercuryRetrograde #astrology #PeterStockinger

Venus Rx will be cazimi in Scorpio between Friday 23:30UT and Saturday 07:31UT. If questions or doubts about your current, or ex- partner arose during Venus’ ongoing retrograde phase, the close conjunction to the Sun (cazimi) will bring clarity which may lead to final decisions.

Venus, debilitated by Detriment in Scorpio, turns retrograde until 13 November (partially in Libra). “Retrograde Planets degenerate from their proper nature, by that means Fortunes are made Infortunes, and the evil Planets far worse.” (William Lilly, Merlinus Anglicus, 1677)

October: A farmer sowing grain (🎨 Codex Schürstab, Nuremberg, 1472 c, illuminated ms, Zürich, Zentralbibliothek)

Month of October / Libra and Scorpio Sowing winter grain and smoothing the earth with a rock-weighted harrow. (🎨Gebroeders van Limburg, commissioned by Duke Jean de Berry, Ms.65, Musée Condé, Chantilly)

Mercury, a neutral planet ingresses into Scorpio, the cold and moist, phlegmatic, fixed Sign today until 6 December. Expecting fanaticism, sarcasm, deceit and ruthless candour. Also heightened interest in the unfathomable! Turns retrograde on 24 October! (🎨 Nocturne of Scorpio, by Jaya Prime)

Mars moves into Leo until 25 November, getting out of his debilitated state in Cancer, but … “ hee [Mars] generally is the cause of corruption in regard of his too much dryness, and this especially when he is in a fiery Sign” (William Lilly, Annus Tenebrosus or the Dark Year, 1652)

Full Moon in Aries on Saturday 16:49UT. With the Moon in Aries we have to look at Mars to find out about this Full Moon's quality. Mars will be in 29 Cancer, an anaretic degree, where he is also in his Fall. Expect explosive emotional volatility and a desperate, reckless urge to act on impulse.

♎️🌞 Today the Sun moves into Libra. Happy Birthday to all my Libra friends ♎️🌞 (🎨 Book of Hours, MS G.14, Pierpont Morgan Library, New York) #astrology #zodiac #Libra #SolarReturn #Prediction

William Lilly wrote about the Lord of the Geniture: “… the whole actions of the native will more or less partake of the nature of that planet [which is the LoG] …” (Christian Astrology, p 532) (🎨 The seven planets, Tübinger Hausbuch, 15th C.) #Astrology #LoG #Nativities

Establishing one's Temperament is one of the most fundamental, but also one of the most important tasks in a natal reading. Do you know your Temperament? (🎨 The Four Temperaments Quinta Essentia, Leonhard Thurnheisser, 1574)

Mercury opposes heavily debilitated, retrograde Saturn today. Expecting restrictions, delays, communication problems, difficulties with contracts or commerce. Also potential for deception or hostility due to words or deals. Personal intensity varies due to individual placement of natal planets.

William Lilly had to work hard to create a Speculum for his client, the merchant, whose chart he used as an example in his textbook Christian Astrology. Thanks to Almugea, the fabulous new software for traditional astrologers, it only took me minutes to replicate the chart and the Speculum.

New traditional astro app Almugea also includes a Lunar Mansions setting, making it easy to find out in which Mansion the Moon is at any given time. (Mansion names are according to Agrippa’s Three Books on Occult Philosophy) #LunarMansions #astrology

Friends of Traditional Astrology - I have just signed up for an account on Almugea, which they term the ‘traditional astrologer's digital workbench’. My first impressions are entirely positive! It seems that, at last, we have some astrological software that caters for our needs. almugea.com

Mercury has moved into Libra until 30 September - providing the perfect opportunity to communicate, collaborate, or mediate. We observe, compare, and appreciate what seems to be useful to us. #astrology #Mercury #Libra

Venus has moved into Scorpio until 25 October, a cold & wet, nocturnal water sign ruled by Mars, wherein she is in her detriment. There will also be a retrograde element involved in her movement through this sign. #astrology #Venus #Scorpio

Moon in Lunar Mansion #10, al Jabhah, today. In this Mansion, the Moon promotes love and benevolence. It is also good for healing the sick, but bad for journeys. #LunarMansions #Astrology

Month of September / Virgo and Libra. Grape Harvest. (🎨Gebroeders van Limburg, commissioned by Duke Jean de Berry, Ms.65, Musée Condé, Chantilly)

Although Mercury is currently dignified by Sign and Face rulership, as well as Exaltation, cazimi will put him into overdrive, so you can achieve what would be difficult otherwise. The cazimi phase begins Thursday 19:14UT and ends Friday 11:54UT. #Mercury #Cazimi #Astrology

Mercury moves into Virgo today. Essentially dignified by sign rulership, exaltation and term rulership, he will stay in Virgo until 10 September. Out with the abacus, the pen and the notepad; it's time to crunch the numbers, or work on your latest book project. (More about cazimi Mercury later on)
