BETWEEN THE NEW MOON on the 15th (the “Ides of March”), the Vernal Equinox (Spring) on the 20th, and the Full Moon on the 30th, this is one intense beginning of Nature’s 2010 New Year cycle. We’re being given the opportunity to practice trust and exercise faith as the Sun moves into the sign of exploration and discovery–Aries. From this point onward life will present itself as “spontaneously creative,” meaning: “Hang onto your hats–it’s going to be some ride!” [click to continue…]

THIS ‘3’ YEAR, NUMEROLOGICALLY SPEAKING, is also the Chinese Year of the Tiger, which begins on February 14, Valentine’s Day. Even though it’s a fast-paced year, we’ll all need to plan well and think things through before we act. Being centered and grounded will really help us deal with the drama, intensity and change that come in a Tiger year. We’ll experience rapid and far-reaching transformation in every aspect of our lives during this time of great opportunity. Our key phrase this year is “carpe diem!” Now for the individual forecasts: [click to continue…]

THE FIRST DECADE OF THE 21st Century is at an end, and a dynamic new year and decade have begun. This year brings us dynamic new opportunities to make our hopes, wishes and dreams come true. It is about coming into our own; about attracting and receiving our riches as well as living from our strengths and not our weaknesses. The signature energy for this year is expressed by the dominant planetary aspects of a full moon and a lunar eclipse at the very start of it. Each of these aspects alone foretells a time of deep intensity and high drama. Together, they’ll insist that we get to the core of our own truths and live our lives out loud. [click to continue…]

THESE ARE EXCITING TIMES, both numerologically and astrologically. On January 1, 2010, we’ll be entering a brand new year and a brand new decade. What does this landmark year hold for us? Everything in the Universe has its own unique energy. For the year 2010, that energy is expressed numerologically through the number “3”—which is determined by adding together all of the numbers of 2010—because 2 plus 1 equals 3. This single digit tells us what this year and we are all about, as well as how to get the most out of it. [click to continue…]

IT’S DECEMBER, AND IT HAS BEEN QUITE A YEAR, HASN’T IT? In only a few short weeks, we’ll all witness and participate in the end of this year and the beginning of a new year and a new decade.
Endings and beginnings, opportunities and challenges–they do trigger periods of profound reflection and soul searching, don’t they? Our souls ask us life’s important questions: Am I living authentically? Am I fully experiencing my life and mining the richness of my potential? If I am, how do I keep the magic and miracles flowing? If I’m not, how do I get them started? [click to continue…]

WHAT GIFTS AND SKILLS have you developed during this very transformational year? This year’s powerful combination of forces have offered us the opportunity to use our natural gifts of courage, stamina, determination and adaptability in order to know that we can manifest whatever we set our hearts and minds to. Your message as you move through this period of assessment comes in the form of a quote or affirmation. Write or print it out, put it on your bathroom mirror, refrigerator and/or the dashboard of your car. Be conscious of and contemplate its message and meaning to you at this very pivotal time of the year. The messages: [click to continue…]

OCTOBER IS THE FIRST MONTH of the last quarter of the year. The last quarter is a time of harvest and summation. What have you sown and grown this year? What is your “crop’s” value to you and your life’s journey? From your honest, insightful answers to these questions, you can begin choosing what you want your efforts to reflect back to you for next year’s “crop” and what it will take to bring your preferences to fruition. Once that’s done–relax and enjoy the coming season of festivities. [click to continue…]

I AM FINDING IT DIFFICULT to believe that September is already here, but it is, and with the month comes another Mercury retrograde, from Sept. 5 to Sept. 28. All are affected, but Mercury’s movement is of particular interest to certain signs, such as Gemini and Virgo. Here are the September messages for each of us: [click to continue…]

W E BEGIN THIS MONTH’S FORECASTS WITH a quote I really love:
‘The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe.
If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.’–Friedrich Nietzsche
ARIES (March 21-April 20) Your creativity and your magic are at an all-time high. Take courage and be willing to color outside the lines—your unique perspective will attract the attention and the help you need in order to move mountains. [click to continue…]

SUMMERTIME AND THE LIVIN’ IS EASY” and, “When a bee lies sleeping in the palm of your hand” are lines from two of my favorite songs. Both lines speak of an idyllic time when all the forces of nature relax and live together in harmony. By simply allowing yourself to be in sync with life, rather than trying to control it, you’ll automatically flow with the current—and then, effortlessly—you’ll find yourself in perfect alignment with Universal harmony.

I T’S JUNE ALREADY! This year, 2009 is the “Year of Being,” and as we approach its halfway point, what have you discovered about yourself? Is your life an epic adventure yarn, a mundane retelling of the same old story, or something in between? Change is the key word now–the planet of transformation, Pluto, is in Capricorn, which means that we and the entire social order of the world are being restructured. Now really is the time to create your life the way you want it to be. [click to continue…]

IN PART ONE OF THE ASTROLOGICAL chart comparison, or synastry, of Margaret and Marion, two of The Sister Project sisters, we looked at the overview of each individual and how they relate to themselves, their environment and each other as a whole. Do they match (Easter dresses or not) we wanted to know? In Part 2, we take a look at the planets in each sister’s third house, the house that governs siblings, and observe how they relate to themselves and each other as they emphasize their similarities and differences.

MAY IS UPON US, (where did April go, anyway?) and with it comes my Third House predictions for the balmy month ahead. Enjoy the horoscopes, and the weather.
ARIES (March 21 – April 20) Being a natural leader (and loner), you feel you do your best work when you’re on your own. At this time, though, you’ll benefit more from being a team player. Working with a like-minded group of people will really enhance your perspective and guarantee success. [click to continue…]

First time here? Here's the idea: TSP is a network of blogs about the many facets of the word sister, and the concept of sisterhood. A sisterhood of sister blogs, you could say. Whatever sister means to you, from identical twin to sister-in-law (or in-friendship or in-feminism), we’ll make room to listen in about it or express it on TSP. Like the slogan up top says, “Don’t you have something to say to your sister?” We've got galleries of art and literature by and about sisters, and a Sisterpedia of sisterly trivia...but now we're getting ahead of ourselves. The quick study: 
As the suffix of its name suggests, 
No surprise, really, that sisterhood, often life’s longest relationship and always one of its most important, has been the Muse for so much creative self-expression by women, and also by men.
