October 2017
ARIES (March 21 – April 19) Things are getting more lively for you. The Sun runs in opposition, thus stimulating you to search for things to do. The effect can be distracting, as it is an opposition. To this is added Mercury in opposition, stimulating errant thoughts. That often makes one ask many questions and mental agitation. All in all, feel the urge to act but be mindful of how the energy is being presented. As the month ends Uranus will be opposite the Sun, Mercury and Jupiter, making the agitation even stronger. Remember, it is just an influence, you can control yourself if you wish to. Aries Buddhists are…

September 2017
ARIES (March 21 – April 19) This month Uranus is moving backwards in your sign. That can mean things seem confusing to you. There is a beneficial aspect with Mars and Mercury which increases personal power and intelligence but when mixed with Uranus’s retrograding movement you must be careful of misunderstanding things. This will increase in the last ten days of September as Jupiter will be opposite to Uranus. The sum total of these effects can make you feel scattered but energetic to solve the problems before you. Aries Buddhists love to be motivators. This month practice the basics of meditation: awareness, wisdom and compassion. Whether its astrology or a…

August 2017
ARIES (March 21 – April 19) This month has Uranus running retrograde. That means according to our position on earth, Uranus seems to be going backwards. This should be good for you as Saturn and Jupiter are coming into good aspects. Uranus has an effect on us to be spontaneous but because it is going retro you might want to be open minded about what spontaneously arises. It might be unexpected. Irrespective of what is going on astrologically, you always have control through your own motivation. Aries Buddhists love to be motivators. This month motivate to be clear minded and full of good will. The more you study Bodhicitta, the…

July 2017
ARIES (March 21 – April 19) Well it is a good month to stop most of what you strive for and relax. An aggressive attitude could cause problems. Uranus in Aries is square the Sun and Mercury. This is a good set of aspects for the Perfection of Patience. It is not a good time to be focused on personal goals. The reason is your mind has the possibility of being confused by the Mercury square. Aries Buddhists love to be motivators. This month motivate to be quiet and peaceful. Be the true definition of a Buddhist, an inner person, and this means to focus on inner qualities and not…

June 2017
ARIES (March 21 – April 19) This month is very energetic. This month Uranus will be well aspected to the Sun, Saturn, Venus, Mercury, and Mars. Those elements are complimentary to give energy, wisdom, intelligence and affection to Uranus’s spontaneity. Thus, expect to be busy for June. Be careful in the last days though as Uranus is square to the Sun and you could try to do too much. Aries individuals are inspired and so manage your inspirations, don’t just run from one project to another recklessly. Aries Buddhists love to be motivators. I would recommend you have good shock absorbers. Not that you are going to crash, rather that…

March 2017
ARIES (March 21 – April 19) This month Mars, Uranus, Venus, Mercury, and the Sun will pass through your sign for most of the month. Pluto will be square those planets during this time and so a feeling based planet will affect your energy, intellect, and feelings. Because Pluto is in a square aspect it can mean you are moody and despondent. Remember astrology only has a strong impact if you are not being conscious of your actions and decisions. Be mindful and maintain a positive attitude. That will help. Aries Buddhists love to be motivators. Your speech is blessed astrologically this month and Manjursri’s blessings will be available. This…

Full Moon Feb 10th
Full Moon of February 10th This upcoming Full Moon will be unique. The reason is 50% of the planets in our solar system are aligned to the Full Moon in Leo. That makes it an extra special day. Buddhist meditators have two benefits from their practice. One is Quietude Meditation (Shamata) and the second is Contemplative Meditations. These two increase our stability and self-confidence. Quietude Meditations keep us in touch with ourselves. We are relaxed and at peace with ourselves. We know how we are feeling and thinking. Contemplative Meditations give us context. We know what is important and what is not important. Where to put emphasis in our lives.…

January 2017
ARIES (March 21 – April 19) This month you have the Sun, Pluto, Neptune and Venus all square Aries, especially the Sun and Pluto to Uranus. Therefore, go slowly and be mindful. It is not a disaster that these are square it just means you must be more mindful. If it is raining today, then you are mindful and take an umbrella if you go out. These aspects just need your mindful awareness to manage their influences. The basic influence is to be agitated and uncommunicative. So, watch for those tendencies and eliminate them as they arise. Aries Buddhists love to be motivators. This month slow down and practice mindfulness…

December 2016
ARIES (March 21 – April 19) This month Jupiter is opposite Uranus in your Sun sign. This can benefit you as it increases personal energy. A sense of playfulness and joy may pervade you. Just be careful of being easily distracted by some new project. You are enthusiastic but possibly not organized enough to accomplish the task. The down side of this aspect is you just want to have fun. You could waste time and then suddenly when the playfulness is not there you are like the grasshopper who did nothing to prepare for the winter. Aries Buddhists love to be motivators. This month enthusiasm is high but it needs…
