Thursday 4/25 will be a full moon at 5 degrees scorpio and a lunar eclipse at 5 degrees of scorpio. This is the time to see how close you are coming to fulfillment of your new moon wishes. The seeds should be starting to sprout. The fixed signs (taurus, leo, scorpio and aquarius) should notice some action especially if you are in the early degrees. The eclipse sets off aspects in the natal chart around that degree or an aspect to a planet at that degree. It is like plugging into a wall socket and more energy is available. Think of something you have been wanting to accomplsh and perhaps this will give you a little push. Scorpio is the most misunderstood sign. People of this sign like their secrets and should always hang onto a few of them. They are quiet so it is hard to get to know them. Remember, still waters run deep. We all have scorpio somewhere in our chart. That may be our area of transformation. Happy Spring!

The scent of lilies filled the air as I arrived at Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, Pa. Orchids everywhere! Perched in trees, hanging from ceilings and walls they transported me to another world. Did you know that the vanilla bean comes from an orchid plant? Look on the dannon vanilla yogurt container and you will see it. The orchid plant grows up the wall on a vine but the flower is very small. Have an early spring and go!

The full moon this month falls in the sign leo. Aquarians need to rest up since this is a time for them to conserve their energy especially with the square from saturn. The air signs- gemini & libra will feel energized by this moon. Leos may receive a present unexpectedly and capricorns will see an emphasis on the financial areas of their own or their partner's chart.Enjoy the snow and curl up with a good book!

Today, January 11th is the day of the new moon in Capricorn. Take care of responsibilities first then take time for your wishes. Remember the song 'You cannot win if you do not play'. Think up a good wish for yourself and see the results in 2 weeks or so depending on the wish!

A picture is worth a thousand words. This vegetable salad is topped with a grilled chicken breast. Delicious!

It's a cloudy day in New York with a 50 degree temp in January! It always seems sunny in New York. So many people from all over the world come together in the Times Square area. The stadium seating and little tables and chairs are a welcome site to my tired legs. Quite a change from my suburban home.

This Friday will be the full moon in the sign of Cancer the crab who likes to hide in his shell especially when probed. Check back and remember your new moon wishes and see how you did. The moon trines (good aspect) saturn which adds emotional stability to this moon. There is a square (stressful aspect) of the moon to uranus which will encourage us to be courageous and try something out of our comfort zone or perhaps we will have that lightning flash ...an ah ha ..moment of invention or clarity. Let's see how we do. Let me know...Happy New Year!
