Gen Z’s Astrology: What Uranus, Neptune and Pluto’s placements during the Gen Z years tell us about this unique generation

Posted by Gabby Turner on Friday, September 16, 2022, In : Astrology

	Gen Z (those born 1997-2012) were the first generation to experience the surf-able web from the time they were born. They are also the generation to grow up during the shift into globalization. They came to age as the amassed wealth generated by globalization for the few then lead the many into a zeitgeist of sudden awareness of how wealth inequality shapes power dynamics. With a burgeoning technological means of addressing shared concerns en masse, Gen Z grew up empowered to stand up for th...

Venus Weather: Between a Knife and a Hard Place

Posted by Gabby Turner on Friday, June 3, 2011, In : Astrology

Some astrologers don't consider minor aspects, but the energy of Venus today is very much wrapped up with them. The planet is making a sesquiquadrate (or 135 degree) aspect to both Saturn and Pluto, which are meanwhile in square to each other. This forms an aspect pattern that looks pretty similar to a Yod or "Finger of God," in which two planets in sextile both form quincunx aspects to a third planet. In a Yod, astrologer Eric Meyers writes, "the two planets in sextile are in harmonious ...

Uranus Squaring Pluto +Sextiling Japan's Natal Pluto/Ascendant: Transforming Energy Dependence and Unhealthy Technologies

Posted by Gabby Turner on Monday, March 14, 2011, In : Astrology

Well if there's anything Uranus has taught us best over the last few days, its that predictive astrology (especially when it comes to Uranus!) is very limited. The earthquake in Japan with its correlating tsunamis and nuclear crisis took the whole world by surprise. I felt like saying, "Well I'm not surprised that Uranus was...surprising."

So it's impossible to say really how this nuclear crisis will play out. We really just have to empty ourselves of any feeling that we can control t...

Crisis in Japan--Pluto? Uranus? Neptune?

Posted by Gabby Turner on Sunday, March 13, 2011, In : Astrology

I was talking to a friend of mine earlier about the recent crisis in Japan and she was saying that it must be especially difficult for Japan to recover from this partly because they're still recovering from the collective psychological wound of the atom bomb drops on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, which in the big scheme of things did not happen so long ago. And psychological woundedness is a strong influence on the very nature of Japan, as can be seen by Pluto's prominence there on the ascendan...

PLUTO TRANSITING THE HOUSES, PLANETS, LUMINARIES, CHIRON, ANGLES, & NODES: A Personal Experience

What is a Full Moon?

If you think of the Sun and the Moon as the minute and the second-hand on the zodiac chart, like hands on a clock, then the Full Moon is the moment when the tips of the second and minute hands (the Moon and Sun) are at their most opposite points in the sky. This happens about every 29 days, roughly once per month.
