FRIDAY, AUGUST 12
There's a buzz in the air this morning with Mercury quincunx Uranus. Conversations go askew, information comes to us at odd angles, and nerves all a jangle. A Mercury-Venus semi-square at the same time makes communication edgy. Being open-minded helps us to react without snapping and to adjust to the unexpected with graciousness rather than anger. The Moon continues in Scorpio, and is keeps us very busy. This afternoon she squares Sun and Neptune, enhancing the stressful fixed-sign (thus stubborn) T-square which we have been experiencing as of late. Moon adds subjectivity, emotionality, and drama to this story. And if you're going to be sick or have to tinkle ... well, we'll cross that bridge when we get to it. But the best is still to come: The First Quarter Scorpio Moon 7:39 p.m. PDT is in the "take action" phase of its journey. Is anything "seething" deep within? Use this day to take a passionate step forward.
The annual meteor showers are visible all night shooting directly into Mars by 4:00 a.m. This is guaranteed to be spectacular. During the next few days, Mercury stations, with Mars squaring it, both in stubborn, fixed signs. Mercury turns direct on August 15, and this moon sets the stage for that contentious turn in direction. Mercury is in Leo, conjoining GW's Pluto, and it may be that the Karl Rove-Valerie Plame situation has gotten out of hand for him. At any rate, the Mars square does push Bush's power buttons. As a campsite of protesters steadily swells in size along a road leading to President Bush's ranch in Crawford, Texas, demonstrators there are facing increased antagonism from locals and opposition from some military families. More drivers are speeding and blaring horns continuously as they pass the camp, which started Saturday as grieving mother Cindy Sheehan's simple peace vigil. It has grown to about 100 people, with more expected from across the nation.
The Sabian Symbol for 21 Scorpio is once again amazingly on the mark.
"OBEYING HIS CONSCIENCE, A SOLDIER RESISTS ORDERS. A readiness to face the results of a refusal to follow the authoritarian patterns of an aggressive society. INNER FREEDOM."
We will all be thinking much about aggression, its meanings, its means, and its results during the next few days and weeks. Consciousness is under siege in this neuropolitical police state, and if you don't want to live your life vicariously through the televisionary archetypes fabricated for "the good of society" (that is, the enfeeblement of the individual), then you have to rely on discrete modes of aberration. Consequently, it seems, the degree of inventiveness to which we've been forced to ascend is matched only by the level of depravity to which we've managed to slide.
SATURDAY, AUGUST 13
We may be irritable today. Moon is VOC in Scorpio until it enters Sagittarius at 12:47 p.m. About that same time, Mercury makes an exact square with Mars, and anyone can fly off the handle at any time, with very little provocation. Guard against over-sensitivity. Don't push the river, cultivate patience, pace yourself. Use this day to seek your own personal truths. Like when a dancing bear takes off its red dress and shits on the floor you too might want to try to refine your methods to achieve your goals.
SUNDAY, AUGUST 14
We still have our difficult Mars-Mercury square, but Moon is in Sagittarius, and with that moon we can override any difficulty. Sag is the eternal optimist. A Mars-Uranus sextile (9° 28' Taurus-Pisces) encourages inventiveness and originality. Instead of struggling with an old method that doesn't work, try something new; solutions arise in unexpected ways. A Sun-Pluto trine (21° 55' Leo-Sagittarius) also allows healing to take place as we learn to share power creatively. Upload everything you think you are onto the great clutter of this virulent cultural undermind rampant with dubious sampled notions and half-digested leftover memetic visions. Aspects are harmonious, and we can enjoy life. We are apt to find ourselves involved in serious discussions, such as the state of the world. How has our thinking grown and changed during the last three weeks of Mercury retrograde? It is not a day for stumbling across town with a peach-pit in your throat. Nevertheless, you may wish to take advantage of a hungry Leo colleague's invitation to dim-sum.
MONDAY, AUGUST 15
Pluto conjuncts Moon (21 Sagittarius) & Mercury (09 Leo) stations direct. What is falling away? Are you resisting or stubbornly holding on? It is time to move into new territory, so allow the old to die and the new to reveal itself in perfect time. In the words of Djwhal Khul, as he often says, "turn loose, let go, and relax." And, for those of you who have been experiencing the frustration of Mercury's retrograde can now sigh. Ahhhhhhh! We can now copulate delicately amongst the Mesozoic ferns at the Sovereign Botanical Gardens, or ride a queer squadron of tiny black horses through the shopping mall with our minds at peace and moving forward. Quality over quantity wins hands down!
TUESDAY, AUGUST 16
Today Venus moves into her home sign of Libra until Sep 11, 2005. Tonight Venus is visible in western sky after Sunset within 16 degrees of Jupiter (now at 16 Libra.) You've probably been hearing a lot lately about the migratory falterings of various Venutian creatures of air and sea. In the face of instinct cutbacks these species are becoming confused, and often fail to successfully navigate the age-old patterns their ancestors so deftly and intuitively executed. Venus has tabled a plan to incrementally raise the instinct awareness levels in afflicted fish, birds and insects. With our lady Venus restoring innate migratory aptitudes, you can rest assured that a flock of monarch butterflies destined for the Transvolcanic Plateau in Mexico will not end up at a truckstop in Langenberg, Saskatchewan. And who hasn't seen news reports about infertile tortoises, hermaphroditic birds, and six-eyed fish? Perhaps you've even caught one of the latter yourself, while casting your line at the cottage. True, for the most part, these abnormalities are side-effects of chemical dumping, nuclear testing, and other human activities - but humans are a part of Nature, and other species are equipped to adapt to the novelties introduced by Homo sapiens. Mutational Versatility has always been a major part of the Venus (wo)mandate. With Venus in Libra, we're thrilled to have the opportunity to put Venutian specialized techniques in the service of her Venutian majesty - to accelerate the evolutionary adaptability towards which all sensible species strive.
Jupiter is now within 7 or 8 degrees of the fixed blue star Spica located in the hand of the Virgin Priestess and associated with the Empress in the Tarot Cards (a symbol of the divine feminine in her strength, fertility, and generative expressions). Here we have an opportunity to connect with the expansive power of Jupiter to renew our vision of relationships and generate whole new ways of relating with ourselves, each other, and life. Also on her agenda is the expansion of her role as chemical supplier to meet the pharmacological needs of various insects, arachnids and cephalopods: bombardier beetles need hydroquinone to stun their assailants, spiders need vortexylene to spin their webs, cuttlefish need customized ink to ... well, we're not entirely sure - but where there's a need for 'alchemy' in the Wild Kingdom, her laboratories will be ready with the goods.
WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 17
With Moon moving into Aquarius and Jupiter trining Neptune we have added help in radically revisioning our understanding of conscious equal partnership and the grand intent of our personal relationships. The idea here is to be conscious about why we are entering into relationships? If we are choosing relationships because we are unconsciously lonely, bored, depressed, or unfulfilled it is doubtful the relationship will ultimately fulfill those needs. If however we are consciously entering relationship and choosing it as - an opportunity for growth, for full Self expression, for lifting your lives to their highest potential, for healing every false thought or small idea you ever had about you, and for ultimate reunion with God through the communion of your two souls - then we are entering an entirely different domain based on the foundation of consciously choosing our experience. This rewrites our current cultural relationship programming in ways that are liberating, beneficial and supportive to all concerned. A diet of cathode rays will not suffice to deaden our glory in these days of mutational versatility. It is time to break the vision barrier.
THURSDAY, AUGUST 18
Tonight is the fullest rise of the Moon and with the exact Full Moon tomorrow morning Moon rise tomorrow night will already be a waning. Tonight the Moon is rising in the East South East (ENE) 10 to 15 minutes before the Sunsets with a low horizon line. This is the second closest to the Earth Full Moon this year and worth witnessing if you have clear skies. (Moonrise is about 6:48 pm and Sun set is about 7 pm). In the Aquarius Full Moon window we have an opportunity to embrace and even instigate change intended to support radical growth.Enough of us are already working around the clock to tear down the brutal vision of misery, the current temporal quotient of suffering, despondency, and total abject dread. The least you can do is be magnificent. Your time has come! Reach through the television haze and strangle those old aeon archetypes. They were beginning to wonder if they'd ever feel your hands around their throats.
