Mercury and Mars and the Trayvon Martin case

Last updated on: March 27, 2012 at 1:28 pm   By Lynn Hayes

revised with correct birthdate for Trayvon Martin. Being in the middle of my own personal maelstrom I didn’t even hear about the Trayvon Martin case until late last week.  Trayvon Martin was a 17-year old young man who was shot by George Zimmerman, an armed community watch volunteer, in Sanford Florida on February 26th. Zimmerman claimed self-defense and was not arrested by police, and there was no investigation until the FBI stepped in on March 20th, shortly after Mercury turned... Read more

Sunday inspiration from the trees

Last updated on: March 25, 2012 at 1:29 pm   By Lynn Hayes

“There are times when I cannot believe I am separate from this earth, when I could swear the wind blows through me as it does the woven needles of the pine tree by the creek, when I feel my feet planted deep in the earth with the roots of trees and wild flowers, drawing essence.” – Cathy Johnson (Thanks to Laurel for the quote and the image from Maine.) Read more

Astrology in my world: The Grand Trine at work

Last updated on: March 22, 2012 at 2:42 pm   By Lynn Hayes

I apologize to my readers about the light posting lately, I have been pulled in about 100 directions at once.  I generally do have my fingers in a lot of different pies: I am an astrologer, I have a real estate business, I’m a musician of sorts and play several instruments without playing any of them very well.  I’m very accustomed to having a lot of things going at once and with Gemini rising I enjoy all of the stimulation... Read more

Why your Ipad can’t cast a birthchart

Last updated on: March 19, 2012 at 8:53 am   By Lynn Hayes

A friend of mine recently had a new baby, and he asked why her actual birthchart has a different rising sign than the “real one.”  With his Ipad (the Iphone and other smartphones also have this capability with the right application) he was able to determine exactly which constellation was on the Eastern horizon when the baby was born, and it was not the same as the rising sign, or ascendant, on the computer generated chart that he made on... Read more

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Last updated on: March 17, 2012 at 8:47 am   By Lynn Hayes

I am a bit of a grinch about St. Patrick’s day because of the symbolism of the chasing of the snakes and serpents (natural wisdom) out of Ireland.  But I do love Ireland and today I will be at a pub playing Irish music, wearing green. So I thought I would share something about ancient Irish astrology as it might have been practiced by the Druids.  Unfortunately very little of their wisdom and practice comes down to us in any... Read more

The Great Grand Trine

Last updated on: March 13, 2012 at 9:01 am   By Lynn Hayes

Note to my readers:  This post contains a lot of geeky astrological lingo.  If you find it overwhelming skip to the bottom where I’ve translated this into English for you. Throughout the month of March a Grand Trine is in effect between Jupiter in Taurus, Pluto in Capricorn, and Mars in Virgo.  Normally Mars moves quickly through the zodiac but because it has been retrograde and is moving slowly now before it changes direction, it is at a virtual standstill... Read more

Sunday inspiration for Mercury Retrograde

Last updated on: March 11, 2012 at 7:18 am   By Lynn Hayes

“I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, It’s a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, And that enables you to laugh at life’s realities.” —Dr. Seuss We can think of Mercury Retrograde periods as times when we look through the wrong end of the telescope.  This can seem to us like a “mistake,” or we can take another view and... Read more

Mercury retrograde March 13th: Two steps forward, one step back

Last updated on: March 10, 2012 at 11:54 am   By Lynn Hayes

Get ready folks, Mercury is preparing to turn retrograde on March 13th and its motion has been slowing down for a week or so now as it prepares to make that U-turn.  You may be thinking: “I thought it already WAS retrograde????”  Communication and plans have been thrown awry since December when Mars turned retrograde, and Mars continues to appear to move backwards across the sky from our perspective on earth.  Read more about retrograde Mars here. Mercury is in... Read more

Virgo Full Moon, March 8 2012

Last updated on: March 8, 2012 at 6:54 am   By Lynn Hayes

Art by Teri Sloat. This Full Moon is an interesting dance balancing our attachment to the mundane world through the Moon in Virgo with the transcendent and otherworldly longings of the Piscean Sun.  During the Full Moon the lunar instincts dominate the solar conscious mind, and Virgoan areas of security and a need for order are highlighted. Mercury is the traditional ruler of Virgo and is very active in this chart.  It is still within range of a conjunction to Uranus... Read more
