Lunations vary. Much as “opinions vary” (immortal words uttered by the Philosopher “Dalton” in “Road House” (played by Patrick Swayze)), lunations vary. Some are, frankly, boring. Some are more interesting.
This one is more interesting.
First of all, for many events, this New Moon (NM, hereafter) is the “trigger” associated with upcoming Saturn Square Uranus. One of my teachers said it many times: often the day of a huge, arguably “cataclysmic” outer planet event is a dull day with little to nothing compelling happening (except for births or deaths that happen on that date). But, according to my old mentor, MANY times the immediately preceding (or following) lunation (NM or FM) is a “trigger,” setting in motion critical events.
I believe that is true here. The NM of Thorsday triggers much. Some of it scares me.
Six Major Considerations for this New Moon
Here is my list of “issues” with this NM:
- Thor’s Hammer Key : I have never seen a book describe this (at all!) and Solar Fire (as of version 9) does NOT have a built-in search for this (I would like to see it added). Similar to a “double yod key,” the Thor’s Hammer Key (or, if you prefer, “God’s Fist Key”) is a combination of two Thor’s Hammer patterns interlaced on one side. We have that in this chart, and (similar to Adam Lanza who had a Thor’s Hammer in his birth chart) the Thor’s Hammer can make “things” go “boom.” I will not say it happens every time, but the POTENTIAL is there! (Be careful! Avoid dangerous “things” (people, places, and things. Offer a kind word rather than an angry insult. Apologize. Watch “Unhinged” again! Here is a question : Is the character played by Russell Crowe really the villain? Are you sure? How do YOU act in those situations? Would you apologize? Do you hunt someone down if they don’t apologize to you? Or, are you a doormat? Do you feel your blood boil sometimes? Did you “just want an apology” when you were having “a really bad day”? Have you felt that lately?)
- Rosettas, multiple and interlaced. One side opposes the other. Oddly, both sides seem cooperative. But both sides have HUGE internal battles waged “behind closed doors.” Expect the impeachment trial of Donald Trump to prove to be “interesting.” (Let’s face it, regardless of what the outcome may be, dissatisfaction will be vented extensively, maybe by BOTH sides.)
- 7th Harmonic activity : Karmic (always) and (sometimes) scientific or technical breakthroughs. What appears to be a four planet pattern with a trapezoidal pattern is in play. Whether or not that is true depends on how tight you set your orbs, but (if you are willing to loosen your constraints) the pattern looks interesting.
- 5th Harmonic : The 5th Harmonic looks deadly boring UNTIL you realize that Jupiter forms a bi-quintile with Vesta, and Vesta was involved in the aforementioned 7th harmonic activity. Specifically, Sun/Moon (this IS a NM!) form a 7th harmonic aspect with Vesta. So, what DO the Sun/Moon (father and mother) want to talk to Jupiter (the philandering prodigal son born to be king) through Vesta (collectives and their traditions and rituals)? I am not sure, but it looks interesting. AND, the distance from Jupiter to Sun/Moon is 10d40m (ten degrees and forty minutes), almost exactly 1/33 of the “wheel in the sky” (that keeps turning).
- Grand Cross : We have mentioned this in every recent chart. Neptune and Vesta (whoops, there it is! Again!) oppose each other and the Nodes square both. This is a curious aspect, and it is in play long enough to color this window of time from before the inauguration until ? until ? until ? (Maybe March? April? later?) Seeing collectives (including religious ones) in opposition to dreams, music, poetry, religion, drugs, and alcohol, and FATE (the Nodes) insisting on that conflict, makes for “interesting times” to experience. The Neptune-Vesta-Nodes GC might also be symbolic of the Pandemic as it continues into 2021.
- T-Squares: Ordinarily, we can ignore these when looking at a Grand Cross. BUT, these are NOT ordinary times! Complete separate from the previously mentioned T-Square, we have Hygeia opposing Saturn. Interesting by itself, the fact that Saturn is making its first square to Uranus (since April, 2001) creates the T-Square. When Moon reaches 7 Scorpio (in less than three weeks), a different Grand Cross will form. The Neptune-Vesta-nodes GC is a source of discontent and dissent, but the Hygeia-Saturn-Uranus-Moon GC has the potential to cause radical shifts, deep change that may involve (more) violence.
Any given chart can be “farmed” at length for more meaning. We do that all the time with natal charts. But these six key patterns are enough to be “interesting” as the NM “pulls the trigger” on the Saturn-Uranus square on February 17th.
Thor’s Hammer Key (Interlaced) :
A Potential for Violence or the Energy to Get Things Done (You Choose)
Here is the chart for the THK :
Uranus-Neptune-Hygeia-Astraea form this pattern. Uranus and Neptune are heavy hitters; they tend to shape the world for generations to come. Hygeia is “health and healthcare”; Astraea is “law and legal.”
You can piece together the rest. Stated simply, battles are brewing over healthcare and the laws that govern healthcare. But, if you watch the news, then you already knew that!
Rosettas : Opposing Sides Seem to Agree, But Internal Battles are Fierce
Here is the chart:
The massive activation of Mars (FOUR squares!) tells us this is a BIG FIGHT. Better be prepared!
7th Harmonic : Problems with Supply Chains Continue But Innovative Solutions Are Possible

Mars-Ceres-Saturn-Juno form the four planet pattern here. Mars and Saturn are, respectively, the “Lesser Malefic” and the “Greater Malefic,” but how do Ceres (food, supply chains, the grocery store having what you want, enough vaccine to “go around,” and similar) and Juno (traditional female family roles : mother-daughter-sister-aunt-niece but ESPECIALLY the wife angry at the philandering husband) fit in?
Without the modifers: how do Ceres and Juno fit in with Mars and Saturn? Whatever the case, frankly, it SOUNDS bad (geez, Mars & Saturn are in play here; Grant Lewi made much of Mars Square Saturn in Hitler’s natal chart). I don’t know about you, but it sounds scary to me!
Whatever the case, it will be “karmic” (a long overdue balancing of some kind) and (strangely) scientific and technical breakthroughs may result from it. Hold onto your hat!
We also note that Vesta (of the Grand Cross mentioned earlier) forms a TriSeptile with Sun/Moon at time of perfection of the NM. What does THAT mean? We are not certain, but it ties into the GC mentioned earlier and it will have something to say about our traditions and our collectives!
5th Harmonic
At first blush, this chart looks boring. But, then we see that a BiQuintile connects Vesta (!) with Jupiter (AND Venus!). What involvement of the King (and sometimes philandering husband) and his sweetheart, the ever lovely Venus, to these collectives and their ever important traditions? To be certain, Vesta is an important player here.
Grand Cross : Collectives Meet Their Destiny, A Tipping Point for Millions
At this point, the GC seems anti-climatic. But, in addition to the Saturn-Uranus square, it is the star for the moment. As seems ever true with Neptune, the pattern risks fading into the background with the other drama in play. But, the key issues of the day can be found here! Poetry and music can heal. Alcohol and drugs (and other addictions) can destroy. Which path do you choose?
Vesta makes this GC about collectives : (military, police, religious orders, healthcare workers). Neptune brings huge changes, some of which are deluded mis-steps and others will make their way into poetry and song.
T-Squares : A Signal of Radical Change Coming
That brings us to the final pattern we will review : T-Squares. We ordinarily ignore those when a Grand Cross is in play (a “T” is just a GC with a piece missing), but another T is in play that will have importance in a few weeks when the Moon at 7 Scorpio will make it into a grand cross. (March 3rd)
This is a “fixed” T, and you can expect that some progress will come to a halt because people will choose to NOT give up their positions.
The Fixed Grand Cross is also known as “The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse,” particularly if at fifteen degrees. This one is at seven, but shakeups are still likely.
However, sometimes a GC can be highly productive. A bit of insight or “higher order thinking” can be helpful.

Venus in Taurus (Home) Sextile Neptune in PIsces (Home) 2020-03-22
This is a “feel good” day with a “feel good” aspect that can be critically important to creatives, notably poets & lyricists, photographers and videographers, and anything similar. It tends to be rare, but if you screw up and miss the opportunity you MIGHT can get it again in 2021, 2022, 2023, or 2024. After that, the window does not re-open until 2176.
A bit of warning is in order: Mars conjunct Pluto is also applying. Care must be taken to avoid being susceptible to delusions produced by unscrupulous people (scammers and other criminals and agents of deceit). Working alone, or only with trusted others, is advisable.
We suggest you seize the dreams and ideas that come to you today and grow and harvest them through the windows of opportunity that exist until 2024. After that, either you have done it or you should give up.
For some odd reason, I keep hearing “Tubular Bells” as I draft this entry about this aspect:
(Particularly the section from 17:00 to 18:49, just before Richard Burton announces “Grand Piano.”)
Today is an important day for many of us. Today can be a turning point if you are a creative, or if you want to be a creative. Write that poem, craft those lyrics, capture that rare photo or video. The window is open. Seize the opportunity.

- Please note the Venus / South Node Sesquiquadrate (135 degrees): This produces a profound sense of urgency to perform the tasks that you know best. You may not “grow” into a new area, but you CAN demonstrate mastery with existing skills! And, if you push just a wee bit, you can reach into new areas and establish yourself there.

When we tighten the orbs, all aspects disappear except (1) Venus Sextile Neptune, and (2) the Venus / Node aspects. This is a powerful signal about the need to seize those fleeting thoughts onto paper or some trusted medium. If you cannot act now, seize the ideas anyway. You will need them.

The anaretic degree of any sign has been discussed at length. Specifically, it is the final degree of a sign before a planet moves into a new sign. Outer planets (capable of retrograde) may cross this region several times. Cafe Astrology has an excellent explanation of the anaretic degree. I will not duplicate their work except for a modification.
My original understanding of the anaretic degree came from a presenter at UAC ’98 (I think maybe Carol Wiggers, a William Lilly expert). She sold me on Lilly. While my depth of understanding is not “deep” in the ordinary sense of the word (except maybe for Lewi, who I read and re-read), my favorite astrologers are Grant Lewi, Dane Rudhyar, William Lilly, and Anthony Louis. Of these, only Louis is still alive, and he has a WordPress blog! Indeed, I have reblogged some of his most excellent content.
So, my point about the anaretic degree is this: if I understand Lilly correctly, he treated the final three degrees of a sign as “fated.” Free will might exist in other areas, but not in the final three, and especially not in the “anaretic” (or final) degree. Cafe Astrology, on the other hand, portrays the degree as “indecisive.”
The two viewpoints are not mutually exclusive (one could be indecisive because “fate” is actually driving the decision), but they are not necessarily the same, either. The analysis you are reading is based on this understanding of mine. (Lilly also called the first three degrees “too early to tell.” While Lilly strictly applied it to horary, I apply it to other areas and, in my opinion, it works.)
Let’s get started. Here is a head’s up of my main points:
- The five point stellium is obvious and does not differ significantly for the charts of entry of Sun into the anaretic degree (the entire focus of this entry) for charts for New York, Los Angeles, or Plano (my location). And, none of the regular patterns we look at (T-Square, Grand Trine, Grand Cross, etc.) are present in these charts.
- The most important thing is that BOTH the Sun AND Saturn are in anaretic degrees during this period. (That is unusual.) Specifically, the Sun is in the anaretic degree of Pisces (possibly the most powerful of all anaretic degrees since it is truly about endings) and Saturn is in the anaretic degree of Capricorn (its home!). Saturn MUST make a statement of some kind before it leaves home. And the Sun is in the same position as we close out one astrological year and start another.
- A triangular fifth harmonic pattern exists. I identify this will little commentary, preferring that others reblog my work and add their own commentary.
- A triangular seventh harmonic pattern exists. Again, I offer little commentary for the same reason as previous.
- I offer a number of maps. While all are interesting to some greater or lesser degree, only three are truly compelling: (1) Western Canada (which places both Saturn and Pluto on the Fourth House Cusp, sometimes called either the “final resting place” or, more explicitly, “the grave”); (2) China (and that would seem obvious, but seeing the astrological maps confirming it is noteworthy) and (3) the UK (again, obvious based on what is happening there but, again, seeing the astrological maps confirming it is noteworthy).
- The other maps DO have stories to tell, just not quite as much as Canada / China / UK.
- I think this set of charts might tell us more about what happening than the Vernal Equinox charts.. (But, the Vernal Equinox charts, via the Thor’s Hammer pattern, hint that some serious “unrest” could be facing us.)
Plano (Five Point Stellium)
New York City
Los Angeles
Fifth Harmonic Aspects
The 5th harmonic connections of Mercury (communications and transportation), Venus (values and finances and sometimes health), and Astraea (law and legal matters) foretells possible innovations emerging from the coming difficulties. But Mercury ties into the Thor’s Hammer, so difficult lessons may face us first.
Seventh Harmonic Aspects
The connection of Juno (trust and betrayal), Saturn (often difficult and painful lessons), and the North Node (“fate” or “karma) using septiles (high order lessons involving karma that CAN produce breakthrough insights) seems to foretell the Thor’s Hammer of the coming Vernal Equinox.
United States Map
At least four different sets of lessons face the United States, varying by part of the country.
Canada Map
Western Canada has Saturn and Pluto on IC (Fourth House Cusp) lines; this location (Fourth House Cusp) is sometimes called the “Final Resting Place,” or “the grave.”
United Kingdom
UK is hit by so many lines that interpretation appears to be difficult. But, it looks like a rough ride for them. Since we already know that, the astrology is merely confirming the obvious.
Australia and New Zealand
Similar to the UK, one of the coasts of Australia is hit by a cluster of lines, a sign of challenges.
Europe
The EU is too complex to cover in a single entry. This can be viewed as “homework” or, alternatively, someone else might choose to produce an analysis.
China
Similar to the UK and Australia, a large number of lines go through China. Again, this simply tells us what we already know.
Japan
Japan faces complex and sophisticated lessons. What interpretation? Unclear. But do not be surprised if Japan is the one to develop a cure or vaccine. The multiple crossings tell us of sophisticated thinking about this thorny problem (Coronavirus, Covid19).
India
Two DISTINCTLY different regions and approaches. SOME of the ingenuity of Japan is seen here, also.
Southeast Asia
This is merely a “zoomed out” viewpoint of other maps (China, India, & Japan). However, it could facilitate analysis of other regions.

Sun Sesquiquadrate Neptune 2015-10-15
This is the kind of day where you feel you “must do something about it,” but you are not certain what “it” is or what “must be done.” Maybe very good for work on writing a song or poetry or working on a painting or video, but disconcerting for many of us, particularly in the area of relationships.
Even worse, the Moon is v/c in Scorpio all day. That means you feel the pain and need to change (Scorpio), but your attempts to solve the problem either fail (“nothing will come of us”) or are oddly perverse in their results. This is a tough day, unless you use it for housecleaning and introspection.

We do note TWO triangular 5th Harmonic patterns, making this an excellent time for “creatives” to work (even if you do not “finish” it). Bright ideas and brilliant insights can come at this time, so write down whatever comes to you even if it seems a little crazy at the time.
Some 7th Harmonic aspects are in play that tell us that some of us will be dealing with “karma” on this day, and you may feel a need to “set things right” or “make amends.” Just make certain to obtain feedback from a trusted advisor to be clear that you do not make things worse. (If in doubt, leave it alone.)
