Full Moon in Pisces * Mercury Retrograde in Virgo

Eric and I coming at you from Seattle and Asheville breaking down the cosmic energies around the Full Moon in Pisces, sign of the Dreamer, Mystic, and Visionary Artist which is going on with the Mercury Retrograde in Virgo.

Eric just completed his new Elements and Evolutions astrology book while I just arrived at the coast in Seattle after riding my bicycle from Boulder CO through Nelson BC and then down to Seattle, where I am holing up with fellow astrologer Kriss Shellman and her husband.

Lots of cool shifts happening under this time period....we explain more on the show!

Full Moon In Aquarius * Mystic Rectangle of the Ages

Eric and I are back in action now that I've arrived at my mythic destination here in Nelson, British Columbia, livin' the dream of the Traveling Magi. In fact we are both living the dream, as Eric has been busy adding his next masterpiece to the puzzle of the philosophical underpinnings of astrology with his new book about Elements and Evolution.

Cosmic Weather 136

Sagittarius Full Moon * Jupiter conjunct Uranus in Aries!

Oh my the sky is ascending as Jupiter the Sky-father uplifts Ouranos the deity of the starry heavens! Everyone is about to receive new Marching orders and get devoted to the new tasks and opportunities that present themselves. Especially with Mars finally cruising into Virgo after a six month stint in Leo. Mars can only handle so much narcissism before he implodes with rage.

This is one of those moments we were born to experience, the planetary shift in culture, the ecological disaster of the oil spill that will lead to greater concern for nature and natural processes, the introduction of new solar powered chargers and batteries that work, the end of the industrial age as we know it. Not to mention to creation of the I-pad by apple, a device that is so elegant and cool, that it resembles the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (especially if you download the telescope app!)

I woke up this morning thinking about my journey around the world by bike and grabbed my I-pad and started finding all these cool apps for writers, for designers, for artists, for mind-mappers, for astrologers, etc. I also started downloading books, both through the Kindle app and the i-book store. Amazing! You can even turn the pages on the i-books. I downloaded a 13 hour compilation of Alan Watts breaking down eastern religion as well as my favorite poet David Whyte doing 6 hours on cultivating spiritual disciplines in everyday life. Very cool to listen to while riding my bike across the great Northwest this summer.

Anyway, check out the show. Eric and I are in zany form as usual and ready to rock your world with some insightful professional astrology!

COsmic Weather 135

Taurus New Moon * Grand Square * Uranus enters Aries

It feels like one of the most pivotal summers of the century astrologically! And this simple, serene Taurus New Moon which promises every year to usher in the Spring in the northern hemisphere (and of course its polar opposite Autumn in the southern hemisphere) is also happening at the same point in the Zodiac where Jupiter met Saturn under the ominous Y2K non-event of the Year 2000. It was May 28th when these two cultural titans met to launch the last 20 year period of the old faltering Industrial Revolution marked by their conjoinment in the earth signs for about 172 years.

IN the year 2020, they will meet at 0 degrees Aquarius and usher in a new error of global enlightenment and technological innovation. I've been saying for ten years that 2010 will be the turning point of our era as the new inventions propel us toward the amazement of the future. So here we are, the summer of 2010, and the planets that aligned in Virgo (Saturn, Uranus, Pluto, and Jupiter) to bring us Woodstock in '69 are back at it again. Will it be a summer of love?

I don't think so with the T-Cross configuration that glues the energy together, sowing much conflict and separation. But either way, we'll be moving into a new decade with superior technology, superior communication networks, and volcanoes and earthquakes erupting around us!

Enjoy the show folks. Here's the link.

Scorpio Full Moon * Merc Retro * Sun square Mars

Welcome to another contemplative conversation between Eric and I over the topic of the Full Moon appearing in the archetype of change. Whatever changes you instigates in the Fall are now coming into full focus as the illuminating power of this lunation descends into humanity's collective consciousness.

Check out my continuing adventures to live a Location Independent lifestyle over at my new blog and website http://www.travelingmagi.com

Eric's new "Elements" website has gone live as well over at http://www.soulvisionconsulting.com

The 4th of five passes of the Uranus opposition to Saturn, where our society itself has a mid-life crisis, has occurred and we are left reeling in the wake of this chaotic time. How can you live an empowering life and how can you tap into your gifts and serve the world?

The universe is a marvelous orchestration of simultaneous activity. I mean, when we're all asleep over hear, they are having tea in China discussing the latest news in their hemisphere of consciousness. WoW! That's a really cool thought. There is always something cool going on! Probably alot of bad stuff too, but hey it's the price of inhabiting a fluid form body in a world of sharp and rocky objects. We don't tend to last very long and at the same time you can find eternity in a moment!

I've written about keeping our lives in balance through the wisdom of the seven classical planets on my Traveling Magi Blog, and discussed the inner Structure of Consciousness. All astrological fun!

Anyway, I digress! Here's the link.

Aries New Moon * Sun into Taurus * Uranus opposes Saturn

There's a lot going on in the sky this week, including Mercury retrograde. But with the intense dark moon over, the Aries new moon has swept in to re-energize us for a true march into Springtime! Enjoy the fiery expression!

Both Eric and I launched new web visions today under this pioneering Aries lunation. Eric launched his new website in companionship with his amazing partner Sagit after they relocated to my former town Asheville, NC! The new site is called http://www.soulvisionconsulting.com I often call the 12th House the House of Soul Vision, so that's really spankin' cool! The site has a beautiful elemental theme based on Eric's upcoming new astrology book.

In my continuing effort to release most of my cumbersome possessions and inspire people through my travels, I launched http://www.travelingmagi.com, Adventures of a Celestial Characterologist. Being a student of character and its evolution through time and inspired by the cosmos, I often refer to my job as a celestial characterologist.

Anyway, hope you are able to gain a lot from my new Traveling Magi Blog and Eric's work with Sagit at Soul Vision Consulting. Also, I've finally joined the Twitter revolution. You can become a follower of my creative genius over at http://twitter.com/TravelingMagi

Libra Full Moon * Venus/Mercury into Taurus * Pluto T-Cross

Eric and I present our last Cosmic Weather while sitting in the same Coffee Shop with this epic Full Moon in Libra to bring illumination and vision to new partnerships and relationships in general. The universe is alive and kicking with new energy for new directions with all this regeneration going on. Old lives are fading while new ones are picking up steam.

With Eric relocating to Asheville to essentially take my place but in his own unique elemental way, I have decided not to settle anywhere at all. I'm embarking on a new adventure of long-term global travel, inspired by the books Vagabonding by Rolf Potts and the Four Hour Workweek by Tim Ferris. I've returned to my roots in Boulder to hit a deep cosmic reset button before I go off in a new direction of bringing astrology and enlightenment to the world as a true traveling Magi. I wonder who will be coming along for the journey of transformation!

With Venus and Mercury shifting into Taurus, we'll all start to feel a little more grounded in the process of change, able to let go of old worn paths and possessions to move into liberating new lifestyles. What a perfect time to engage the infinite and design your new lifestyle! Enjoy the journey ahead friends!

Pisces New Moon * Mercury conjunct Uranus * Sun square Pluto

Welcome to another exciting episode of the Cosmic Weather from sunny but still cold Boulder, Colorado. It's going to be an exciting two weeks ahead following the New Moon in Pisces this weekend! Get ready for your whole life to be transformed and accelerated.

Lately, I've been reading "The Four Hour Work Week" by Timothy Ferris at the same time as "Vagabonding" by Rolf Potts and what a revolution of consciousness to be had. I highly recommend you acquire these two books and read them at the same time! OMG!

I feel like the Universe is hitting the reset button in my heart, my body, my whole life. I'm so excited I can't even contain it as I prepare to fly back to NC on Monday to begin dismantling my old life. This from a recent post of mine on Facebook explains it all:

"Having dispelled the illusions of my most recent dream of love, I've returned as a global citizen, blissful in the face of the glorious uncertainty before me, having conquered my fears by simply defining them...Life is Euphoric!"

Virgo Full Moon * Jupiter conjunct Sun * Venus Conjunct Uranus

Eric Meyers and I recorded a Virgo Full Moon podcast live from Borders bookstore with a wondrous panoramic view of the Flatirons. As I continue to deal with the end of my relationship Eric is excited to be moving to Asheville next month with his love. Life is strange right now. I'm beginning to think that the universe is conspiring to get me mobile and free for the upcoming global crisis T-Cross that's bound to shake up everything in June and July. We'll see what happens!

I'm following the synchronicities each day and meeting amazing people. After we recorded the podcast a lady came up to us and expressed strong interest in astrology and we had an amazing time decoding her birth chart. Turns out that's she's an academic psychologist type with an archetypal Jungian focus. We had a great connection. Anyway, embrace the river of life and receive the harvests of past action even if it hurts to stand firm in the emotional truth of the situation.

Cosmic Weather 129

Aquarius New Moon * Chiron conjunct Neptune

Welcome to the Boulder Edition of the Cosmic Weather Podcast as I've recently relocated to my favorite city on the earth, Boulder Colorado, a true return of this Magi!

Eric and I got together at the Book End coffee shop on Pearl Street Mall to record an intriguing conversation about the Aquarian New Moon and the ramifications of not only the Chiron Neptune Conjunction, but also the ongoing tumultuous regeneration of responsibilities and structures invoked by the Pluto Saturn square.

Nevertheless, interesting times are ahead as Jupiter planet of inspiration speeds through the oceanic waters of Pisces to make its predestined appointment with Uranus at the beginning of the fire sign Aries, which only promises to change the world with the introduction of revolutionary inventions that will lead us into the full fledged experience of the Aquarian Renaissance!

On the treadmill at the YMCA this morning I watched the morning sun rise only to dissappear into a giant looming cloud and the following poem lines poured out of me at the coffee shop later:

The Sun rose again only to be swallowed by a great purple spreading cloud. It seems like the whole world was turned upside down and the karma of old desires returned to haunt me again... Old choices and familiar voices taunt me into realizing the impermanence of anything.

I find myself on that dangerous life-defining edge of mystery and destiny again...
Waiting in the prison of my torn heart to catch the next wave, yearning to live the only life I can live...an authentic life beyond fear, beyond loss, not wallowing in my dirty soy chai...there's an experiment rising in my heart as the shards of my former life melt ... into pools of grief within...the authentic life free of struggle is sounding its silent gong and its brave vibrations are playing my soul song...

Enjoy the conversation! Eric is moving to Asheville soon , so we are trading places!

Cosmic Weather 126

Taurus Full Moon Edition * Venus into Scorpio * Saturn squares Pluto

Welcome to another period of Cosmic Weather insights from you hosts, Kelly Lee Phipps and Eric Meyers. We love astrology, the celestial language of communing with the rhythms and cycles of life and we hope you will explore its amazing insights by listening to the podcast.

During this Taurus Full Moon period, we've got one of the great transits happening with Saturn and Pluto perfecting their square aspect, hence we called this the Lords of Darkness edition of the Cosmic Weather. This transit cycle has to do with conservative empowerment and the fear of change, and goes back to the early 80's when they made their initial conjunction. During their first square in the 90's we saw the emergence of the Right Wing power elite in government, government by the wealthy for the wealthy, a veritable Plutocracy. During the opposition the terrorist attacks of 9-11 occurred and ratcheted up the vibe of fear. With Pluto in Sag wars over religious differences were in the stars.

No we come to the final closing square as we see the crumbling of the Republican Party and the rise of the new Liberal Generation. You have Tea Party folks demonizing Obama as the Antichrist while the rest of the world welcomes the new winds of change already reflected in the regenerated diplomatic international climate. These next seven -nine years will be interesting indeed as we watch the revolution of consciousness phase in the 38 year Saturn-Pluto cycle draw to a close.

In the Cosmic Weather podcast we discuss strategies for integrating these planetary forces into your life. Hope you enjoy the show!

Cosmic Weather Special

Poetic Art of Chart Synthesis * AFOA

On Tuesday May 24th, I gave a lecture to the Asheville Friends of Astrology about the Poetic Art of Chart Synthesis. of course I recorded the talk so I could send it to the thirsting listeners of the Cosmic Weather Podcast. I know I've been in another zone lately, maybe in another dimension. In the talk I open talking about the great conjunction of Jupiter-Chiron-Neptune in Aquarius...so there's some long awaited for Cosmic Weather.

Mercury has been retrograde in my 6th house and the New Moon too, and I injured my foot, so I had to limp to my lecture on Tuesday, and I think it was the first time I ever gave a lecture while sitting down. One friend said, "It wouldn't be the same without the infamous Kelly sway!" But I think it came out great. I just wish I had another hour to lay out the ideas.

Anyway, hope you are planting cool seeds under the new Moon in Gemini we just had for this month. Who knows what they will mature into 6 months from now!

Here's the link. Enjoy the lecture!

Wife Swap * Astrology & History * Tao of Astrology

Welcome back to the re-re-emergence of the Cosmic Weather Podcast! I've been overwhelmed with both busy-ness and research and unable to be in the frame of mind to record podcasts, with the filming of Wife Swap and all that that entails. You can check out all the details of my family the "Brazenwoods" going on the show at ABC's Wife Swap website as of Friday APRIL 24th 2009. The show airs at 8 PM, and with 7 million people watching it should be a hoot as people encounter for the first time the bizarre character you know as your Cosmic Weather Podcast host, Kelly Lee Phipps. Christina Brazenwood, my wife, who starred in Return of the Magi, goes to El Paso texas as we exchange lives with realist conservative rodeo cowboy people, Yerrrrhahhh!

On a non-rediculous note, during Astrology Illustrated, I reveal some of the history cycles of been up to my crown chakra in research over the last month with. We begin by taking an in-depth look at some of the key archetypal developments that occured in the Age of Leo and Cancer from 10000 BC to 6000 BC. Fascinating stuff that will blow your mind!

In the Supernova Explosion of Insight segment I begin looking at the unfolding of the book project I've been calling the Tao of Astrology.

Reemergence * Uranus Oppose Saturn * Jupiter in Aquarius

Greetings humanity, friends, family, children of the Cosmos. I'm back, and better than ever. Sometimes the well runs dry, and you don't feel inspired to say anything. You just feel like listening for a few months, so that's what I did. Great thoughts have emerged like, " People will believe anything intellectually, as long as it supports how they feel" and "Sometimes your own Shadow attacks you the worst when invigorated by the actions of others." Today is my birthday and I turned 38, so that means the Sun and Moon and North Node are right back in the sky like the day I was born, so every 18 years or so, you get to start a new cycle of destiny. here's to an amazing year to come!

So anyway, lots of enjoying watching what's transpiring on our little blue planet called Earth. I loved the inauguration of Obama with the Sun and Mercury and Jupiter hugging the Midheaven that day in Aquarius. What a turning point in history! He even mentioned something about a New Age! Twice! Not that I enjoy associating myself with the goofy side of cosmic consciousness, but hey, it is a new age dawning...

Then there was that crazy Superbowl, where the Cardinals almost upset the Steelers, but instead the Steelers with a black head coach upset the record books with the only team that's ever won six superbowls. Wow, they get it done.

Also, in the Supernova Explosion of insight I talk about the Nature of the Creative Void, that deep mysterious darkness that breathes when you close your eyes. yes, that's it, right there. Let's go on a jounrey there in this podcast and contemplate the eternal power of the moment to link the yin and yang strands of time itself. I promise not to bore you! Come, jump on your horse, the Cosmic Weather is summoning a storm!

Obama Wins! * Mars into Sagittarius * Pluto into Capricorn * Polarity Shifts in Consciousness

Welcome to another belated edition of the Cosmic Weather! This week I'm traveling to Toronto to show Return of the Magi, so I'm recording two weeks of transits. I've been traveling a lot showing the film, so sorry bot the lack of Cosmic Weather episodes. I've received all of your emails, even on the road in strange coffee shops, and I know it's been tough. This week I'm catching up on astrology chart orders so if you've ordered a chart it will be in the mail by Friday! Woo HOO! Happy New Mooon in Sag!

This is the first Cosmic Weather in the new Obama Era, so I thought I'd recapture some of the spirit of that amazing night with Uranus opposing Saturn and the Moon in futuristic Aqauraius. What a night! Tears were flowing like rivers from my eyes as my family celebrated a dawning of a new Age. Barack will be the President who will guide us into the Aquarian Era as the Jupiter Satrun conjunction of 2020 will sit right on his Jupiter, and Jupiter will be there on inauguration day! Woo Hoo! Gonna be an exciting 12 years!

We'll also look at the role of Ceres, the bringer of seasons, in the collapse of the financial system through signs in the heavenly seasonal ingress charts. Wow was she ever potent!

In the Suprnova Insight we'll go a step further into Polarity anding with a poem I once wrote on Streaming Free!

Hope you enjoy the show. See ya in early December!
