SIDEREAL WESTERN ASTROLOGY
As an additional comment for the week, I want to let you
know that the Sun have moved into Leo and this will be the last week Venus will
be in Leo also. Mercury has gone into Virgo. This gives the overall opportunity
for adjusting our lives in happier spaces but a trend to move into more logical
and sometimes more uptight head spaces. What I love about astrology is it can
tell you exactly where you need to do your work. The beauty is when you get it
done, then that next step into the unknown is grounded in self-awareness. The
challenge still remains to bring your compatriots into that space while you can
still feel like working with them. In other words, you know and live in your
happy space and may only be a shining example of what that space can look like
if you do the work.
This week is going to have some intense moments on those
very challenges. Momentum has been building and will remain until more of us
get the idea of how to get along. One of my mentors and teachers, Alan Oken
recently discussed the importance of Pluto. For some time, alongside of this T
Square with Saturn, Pluto has been a positive connection with our cosmic point
of destiny, the North Node or Draconian Point. Most of the time it means a lot
of uncomfortable changes. Until December 20th, 2016, this trine
could be “making us a deal we cannot refuse”. This puts a whole new light on
our own stubborn tendencies and facing the inevitable. So consider your
challenges in this new light.
Also as for timing, a heads up on Mercury going retrograde
September 1st. With the accompanying other aspects, you will feel
this earlier than the actual retrograde. Prepare this week for any lose ends to
be completed and then settle in for understanding how you can be part of the
solution.
Friday, August 19th,
expect a harsh and weird moments working its way into what we hear and where
leadership is trying to take us. There will be a conflict of your gut feeling,
what you want and what is viable. Mixed messages are always difficult to sort
out in a world of agendas, conspiracy theories and mental fatigue. Solace is
most likely to be found in letting your personal light shine to those around
you. Venus is mixed up in this T Square right now and will soon inch out next
week. Be careful with who you love so that hissy fits don’t undue lots of
emotional investment. Moon in Aquarius.
Saturday, August 20th,
this is a day to counter balance intuition with logic or observable facts.
Relying on one alone will be insufficient. The Moon and Mercury are in
opposition today in Pisces and Virgo. The classic battle of do I work until I
drop or do I just sit on this couch and let it all happen… probably without
you! Try to moderate your attitude and stay away from intoxicants as they will only
make your reason less reliable. Moon in Pisces.
Sunday, August 21st,
if you kept you act together yesterday, you should be able to make a lot of
headway in spiritual matters. The Moon is trine to Mars and what you feel like
doing will be the right activity. Don’t force things, chose activities that you
can find real satisfaction. There is also a chance you will realize something
very important in your own sense of worth and stability. Reality check that
this development is sustainable. Anything else is a wrong direction. One time
fixes are not a good idea. Moon in Pisces.
Monday, August 22nd.
Unlike yesterday, your drive is likely to be more of a wild hair tickling you
rather than a genuine promise of success. With an exact Lunar conjunction in
the morning with Uranus, any event is likely to be more of an energy killer
than something to press forward into the future. Try to take any setbacks with
a bit of brighter attitude. All things in their time, and no sooner. A smile
will go a long way or at least a sense of humor. I know this is a hard way to
start the work week. Moon in Aries.
Tuesday, August 23rd,
remember when I noted that our world changes and personal changes are feeling
more like “an offer you can’t refuse”? This is a day that meaning and how it
will work for you, individually, will be a bit more evident. Take note of all
the events and synchronicities today so that you have something to hold onto.
There is a Grand Trine in Fire today with those points of destiny and
transformation into the future. Hopefully you will have enough energy to push
forward and greet the day and changes with a smile or a smirk…. Which is my
favorite twist on submission to the realities of life. Moon in Aries.
Wednesday, August 24th,
this could be a very lucky day for many. The shift of working hard on your
special project and how it moves into fruition, is meeting a mile marker today.
Some people may see a bonus or a raise at work. Others will simply find a way
to have the right attitude to get through group dynamics with integrity. Which
in the long run, is what we all want. That is to be recognized for our worth.
Show them what you are made of. And know you did your best with no regrets.
Tomorrow will carry that projection or integrity into recognition. As a note to
life lessons, we do deal with regret in our lives. If you are staying “present”
each day, there can be no regret because you did all that was possible at that
time. Moon going into Taurus by noon.
Thursday, August 25th,
today is a Grand Square that will set a pattern or give a glimpse of things to
come. The issues involved are how the community operates in idealism, upheavals
in spiritual foundations, hope for brighter opportunities in the future and our
emotional nature stubbornly holding on to selfish desires. This is a tough day
for those who cling to the unrealistic. You know who you are because your
stress levels will be intolerable. In the outer world, watch out for those
ready to explode at anything or anyone. A crucial day in understanding who has
it right or at least reasonable. I know people are hurting and frustrated. And
the only way to change that is a mix between being heard and making internal
changes where you can. Attitude will be a major factor in those walking in
integrity and those just out of control. Moon in Taurus.
Blessings and Peace,
