Monday starts with Mercury returning to the sign it
stationed retrograde in back on Election Day, November 7th at 4*
Sagittarius – by Saturday it will be completely out of its retrograde shadow
and things should be moving at full speed ahead in normal fashion. However, in
Sagittarius, the Winged Messenger is in detriment, and can easily overlook/be
impatient with many details in the pursuit of the big and optimistic
picture/new knowledge, that will later come back and trip us up. Still,
thinking is very inspired now and the mind turns to spiritual/religious matters
and higher/secondary learning. This can also have the communications get
preachy/self-righteous about what you believe in, and thus create argumentative
friction with others. Venus is semi-square Pluto today also, which can bring
some intensity in relationships that can be frustrating right now, as there may
be no easy way to get a handle on them. We can become a bit flippant with loved
ones, as we may wish they were different/could change/weren’t so habitual.
Tuesday Mercury squares Neptune ,
which can really diffuse thinking and communicating – there is much confusion,
perhaps even deception in the air, and this can be mentally discouraging. The
mind would rather lose itself in fantasy/escapism today, and it is a good day
to write creatively, or study mystical/spiritual subject matter. It is not a
good day for any type of biz deal or solid decisions. The Moon’s conjunction to
Mercury today too, shows that emotions are likely what’s clouding up balanced
mental judgment.
Wednesday is a quiet day astrologically, although Venus’
conjunction to the North Node could merge goals within relationships and have
groups working together well.
Thursday is a New Moon at 21/22* Sagittarius. This is a time
of inspired new beginnings – of putting Spirit before materialism – of pushing
our inner self to some new edge of experience and gaining new wisdom in the
process. It is a time to question old beliefs and values and allow them to
change/expand – to take on a new adventure away from our security. Look to the
house this New Moon falls into in your chart to see what area of life it will
be most affecting for you. Any planets in your chart it makes tight aspects to
will also flavor your experience of it.
Uranus also stations direct today. It is a time to put the revolutionary
ideas you’ve been thinking about internally in the past few months to action –
a time to evolutionize personally. Expect the fever pitch of rebellion in the
mundane/political world to pick up significantly now and for the next several
months – with Uranus in Aries, this can be violent, yet heroic at times. Mars
is also semi-square Chiron today – this shows we can be stuck by our own
wounds, and the need to figure them out before we can heal ourselves and act on
healing the world.
Mercury trines Uranus and squares Chiron on Friday, merging
the higher and lower minds harmoniously and we can be hit with strokes of
ingeniousness that we are eager to share with others. Life can be pretty
stimulating/exciting today, as our contacts with others can be electrical. This
is excellent for studying technology, science, or math. The square to Chiron
will give us the impetus to use this flow of energy wisely and it can help us
learn much about ourselves and help us help others to learn about new
knowledge/themselves also. There is a Sun semi-square Saturn today too, which
can just be an indicator that many of us are frustrated with old outdated
concepts and the authorities who dictate them and continue to block progressive
change, and are ready to move on without them – in fact, that may be the best
way for the individual to help change a society where the odds are stacked
against him and most others: to just ignore that paradigm and to work with the
others around them to builds up new systems locally that have a whole new value
set.
Venus joins the Sun and Mercury in Sagittarius on Saturday –
we are ready to go out and meet some new social stimulation – new people, places,
things. This makes people more outgoing, open to new stimulation, flirtatious
even. We are also attracted to cutting edge art or just the beauty of nature.
The Sun square Pallas Athene today can challenge some of the beliefs we fight
for, or have us have issues with father figures.
Venus square Neptune on
Sunday is a nice passive Sunday aspect that has us wanting to sit around/hang
out with others who share the same values. We may be a bit overly sensitive to
others’ remarks or be enabling in our behavior within groups, as idealism is
what counts to us, and we may have a tendency to over-romanticize what we
sense. Sexual attractions or the way we perceive loved ones may also be
self-deceptive /self-denying. Weaker relationships can actually breakdown/peter
out now. Mercury’s semi-square Mars may be the source of any remarks that could
hurt sensitive others today. Our frustrations with others or situations can
result in tongue-lashings that do not help the situation, but only make it
worse and have others retreat to a corner.
Next week is the Winter Solstice – the day many have been
waiting for: 12/21/12. Is the world going to end? Ain’t gonna happen! But we
are all being called to help birth a new world – stay tuned.
