March 2018
ARIES (March 21 – April 19) This month starts with Uranus positioned in Aries with a good aspect to Mars. That translates into excellent energy to accomplish tasks. The last two weeks of March then have Mercury and Venus conjunct to Uranus. That increases pleasure and intellect. The month should be enjoyable, at least from the point of view of astrology. Enjoy yourself, later this month it is your birthday. Aries Buddhists love to be motivators. This month starts with energy and finishes with love, compassion and wisdom. TAURUS (April 20 May 20) There are no planets in Taurus and so there are no direct influences. The Sun, Neptune, Pluto…

February 2018
ARIES (March 21 – April 19) This month Uranus is still in Aries. Therefore, I would be open minded for new and different things to happen. Uranus is always a stimulating planet and if one has a rigid attitude then Uranus can be disruptive. If one is open to change then Uranus is a blessing as it stimulates totally new perspectives on existing situations. Aries Buddhists love to be motivators. This month cultivate good relationships. Meditations on love and compassion are excellent supports to the development of personal good qualities and good friendships. TAURUS (April 20 May 20) This month you have a quiet start to the month and then…

January 2018 Happy New Year
ARIES (March 21 – April 19) This month Uranus is moving forward in Aries and so stimulating you to new horizons. At the start of the month go slowly as Uranus is squared by the Sun, Venus, Mercury and Pluto. As you move towards the end of month things will lighten up and other than maybe feeling a bit heavy with wintertime all will be good. When I say go slowly in the first week I mean don’t be jumpy or agitated by the unexpected. Be mindful and of good cheer. Aries Buddhists love to be motivators. This month do as I suggest above. Of course, you should always be…

November 2017
ARIES (March 21 – April 19) This month you have a nice stable mind. The reason is Saturn is well positioned to Uranus in Aries. That means stable but original ways to thinking about things. A flair of uniqueness. Don’t expect that astrology is always playing a role in your life. You are influenced my many things on different levels but your awareness and wisdom always filter the situations. Keep wisdom and mindfulness in good condition and your life is comfortable. Be careful as the month ends as Mars will run opposite Uranus. You still have a good aspect with Saturn, so just be mindful and all will be…

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…

May 2017
ARIES (March 21 – April 19) You will have a very busy month in May. Reason is Uranus, Mercury and Venus are transiting your sign. Uranus gives you spontaneity, Mercury intelligence, and Venus a desire for pleasure. Mercury will move forward quickly and so the effect of a quick intellect will be short lived. As the month closes Venus and Uranus will come conjunct and be squared by Pluto. Thus stimulated a very deep but creative expression of sensuality. Be mindful of where your desires lead you and pick positive directions. Don’t chase after the unattainable, even if it looks very attractive. This month would be a good time to…

April 2017
ARIES (March 21 – April 19) The month is powerful with spring energy and your birthday. Think about honoring your parents this birthday instead of expecting presents from them. They gave you a body, so say thank you to them for the rebirth you currently enjoy. As for planetary influences, the Sun, Mercury and Uranus start the month by inspiring you. That means intelligence is on your side. The down side is Mercury will go retrograde, so happiness and satisfaction may seem distant for you. Therefore, remember this is samsara and it will not hurt so much. Aries Buddhists are motivators. This month think about your actions before you do…

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.…
