Yes, this year both Mercury and Saturn enter their respective "shadow zones" on the same day, meaning they're both preparing to go retrograde at different points in the near future! Lots of threshold action ahead!

A 2020 RIP Celebrating the Life and Works of Mahatma Gandhi, One of the Greatest of All Time

by Robert Wilkinson

72 years ago today a religious fundamentalist's bullet assassinated the One about whom Einstein once said "Generations to come will scarce believe that such a one as this walked the earth in flesh and blood." Today we take a moment to remember this Saint of Non-Violence and Soul Force.

Cooperating With Our Stars - How Much Control Do We Have Over Life?

by Robert Wilkinson

As we move through life experiences, sometimes it’s hard to distinguish success from failure. Because in this transitory world, all forms pass away, we constantly confront endings. When something ends, it’s natural to feel that it didn’t work out as we hoped it would. This can show us the way to future successes, if we’re open to seeing what is with new eyes and an open heart and mind.

TransPluto, Divine Mother, and the Tests of Human Redemption

by Robert Wilkinson

I’ve offered this material in every Full Moon series for many years. Because it’s so important in its own right, I’ve decided to create a separate article on this energy of Divine Mother and how it influences humanity through vast, long wave redemptive cycles.

Why?

by Robert Wilkinson

A dear friend who is part of our greater astrological community was murdered last night. It has devastated all of us, and reminded me of a song I wrote in March 1983 on hearing of the murder of someone in the Austin arts community. This is a grim song and an honest question. I changed a few words since this post is for Ray. For your consideration, “Why?”

The January 2020 New Moon at 5 Aquarius Pt. 2 - Signs, Sabian Symbols, and What It All Means

by Robert Wilkinson

This article covers significant aspects, degree symbols, and other important factors in this Aquarius New Moon chart. We have now moved from the perfect to an imperfect Bowl Jones pattern which leads with Mars in Sagittarius and ends with Uranus in Taurus. This Lunation is one of great power if we’re willing to trust “our ancestral wisdom” as we practice disciplines of Self-transcendence!

The January 2020 New Moon at 5 Aquarius Pt. 1 - What’s Happening in January-February

by Robert Wilkinson

This New Moon ushers in 4 weeks that are totally future oriented, and contains clear signs about the major conflict coming in January 2021. This takes the reorganizational focus of last month’s Solar Eclipse in Capricorn and gives us short cuts to “self-transcendence.” There is tremendous power available to those who are willing to do what must be done.

Neptune and Chiron in Early 2020 – Long Wave Collective Healing and Mentoring

by Robert Wilkinson

I have offered this segment in each month’s New Moon series for many years to give you a broader perspective on the collective atmosphere, and the long wave changes humanity is going through. I’ve decided to make this an independent post which I’ll link to in the future. These two planets have to do with a VERY vast picture of collective consciousness and the energies needed to “heal into our Higher Self.” Today we’ll discuss what’s up and what’s coming.

I recently gave my “Predictions for 2020” at the Arizona Society of Astrologers meeting. Because there’s so much material, I promised the group I would post my notes on the talk here at the Aquarius Papers. Today is the last part of the talk, which offers a brief take on what’s ahead for each sign. This was always the part people most liked during the years I did my forecasts in Southern California, so please enjoy these brief snapshots. Of course these are for both Sun signs and rising signs!

by Robert Wilkinson

On Saturday, I gave my “Predictions for 2020” presentation at the Arizona Society of Astrologers meeting. Because there’s so much material, I promised the group I would post my notes on the talk here at the Aquarius Papers. Today is the middle part of the talk, where we go into the conflicts of 2020 and 2021 and crucial points this year which will help us anticipate the chaos and at times anarchy coming this year and next due to powerful squares from Aries to Capricorn and Aquarius to Taurus. We’re sailing into turbulent waters!
