The Radio Report transcribed for Aug 20-26, 2011

Sat Aug 20 2011 – Sat Aug 27 2011 - audio report
Transcribed from the audio version of the WZBC 90.3 radio report Saturday August 20th at 9:30 AM.
Good morning. We have a whole lot of things going on. One of the things is a sense that we are blocked which is accompanied by a feeling of frustration. Often this is accompanied by hard energy, hard work, and difficulties. This is defined by a square between Mars and Saturn that’s coming up on Thursday morning 8/25/11. It appears that many blocks are related to family situations regarding work and the economy and more. Mars is in the sign of Cancer. Saturn is in the sign of Libra leading to difficult issues with relationships on all levels whether the issues stem between countries down to individuals. We might be facing changes in decisions that have been made about the design of our family structure. You may be looking at how to move along with business and adapt to the rapid changes. Events have an urgency or suddenness such as people being fired, people quitting, people dying and things turn upside down in the four corners of our lives; i.e. me vs. you and home vs. career. That is what’s happening with a surprise element to it. The back drop planetary aspect to all of this is the Uranus square Pluto (both planets are currently retrograde. Uranus is the ruler of the surprise element. Pluto rules all the deep subjects and then, here comes Mars and Saturn in a difficult square. Actually after this aspect is complete we may feel like there is a break in this mood and the changes that come about might feel increasingly more open, hopefully so.
8/20/11 For Saturday we have a Taurus Moon. The Taurus Moon is filled with the kind of activities that focus on family and tradition and the things we want to remain the same. This Taurus Moon has several complications involved with it. One of the things is that Venus will change signs saying that there is an important female that leaves the situation or changes her mind. There is actually a squabble between the Taurus Moon and Venus that is not voiced because the Venus person changes their mind or leaves before the conflict is addressed. Later the Moon will square Neptune before it leaves the sign. All of which says issues are large regarding money and love. Any attempt to change the plans of the foundation of important things which are traditional or kind of etched in stone by the family might fail. There is this distracted or disruptive quality to matters on Saturday. For today and tonight I think that if there should be pleasantness to it, as Taurus usually accompanies lots of good food and pleasant surroundings.
8/21/2011 Sunday there is an aspect between Venus and Saturn early in the morning and it is difficult in regards to relationships. It can feel a bit depressing. That’s another thing people have been complaining about is that sense of depression of which I contribute to the Mars-Saturn square. I believe when this square begins to separate the complaints of depression will begin lift.
Again for Sunday when we have that Taurus Moon the other aspects are the Sun in Neptune, they form a split parallel. Then Venus in Neptune will oppose. This is some sort of confusion. This could be something on television in a big way. Something to do with a woman leaving a position- Maybe it is Hillary Clinton, I don’t know. Perhaps an important female makes a change or makes a statement in some way that is important. There is a quarter Moon at 5:54 pm. It is a Last Quarter Moon at 28 degrees of Taurus. This one has the Sun right at that Mars-Saturn midpoint with an emphasis going on: Something being cut off, something being done, something finishing or being thrown out in some way. Mercury is still retrograde - so all these things are subject to reversals. That will be a help, especially if you are not pleased with the outcome. Venus does change signs on Sunday evening at 6:10 pm. You may have a different picture after that event. You learn what the issues were. So this star person, this woman or this person, who is in a very favorable position in a star position, moves into a service position. Things become a little more focused on work and money for work and things of that nature. The Sun and Ceres make a 150 degree aspect. This often refers to matters about children and food and cycles and perhaps there is more news about shortages including medication. Maybe there are ways to replenish the shelves: the food shelves, the medication shelves. Also look after kids very closely and pets very closely as well with that quincunx. Then the Moon changes signs after the void of course Moon period which is from 7:59PM Sunday until 8:52PM on Sunday night.
Then the Moon enters Gemini. The Gemini Moon is also complicated. No green light for now. Not today, not tomorrow (Sunday), and not on Monday. Because there are too many issues going on that make it expensive and costly in so many different ways. Your head could be churning around and around due to a 1:24AM aspect on Monday morning when Mercury is in a 135 degree aspect to Pluto. Those things get sorted out so try to let that go. Try to meditate on a positive outcome or chant your way into a sleep so that you can get some rest and deal with the day. There is some heavy energy with the Sun and Saturn at 12:12PM with a 45° semi-square. This aspect indicates locking horns with authority figures or finding that you feel there is more or you want to move forward and are aware of the blocks. It’s also a high point of a difficult Mars-Saturn aspect. But that Mars Saturn aspect is not all bad. It does bring about some agreements between people, long term agreements and commitments and the Sun-Saturn aspect on Monday afternoon could signal a change in an authority position. It will force an issue to budge off a stalemate position. There are a couple of more Sun aspects. At 5:06PM the Sun and Mercury join together (conjunction) for long term introduction or long term agreements brought to the table. Avoid sign papers if you can until after Tuesday morning at 7:20 in the morning. Take it home and read it over. Just stall until you are able to get that green light on Tuesday with room for revisions because Mercury remains retrograde.

8/22/11 For Monday the Sun and Neptune oppose at 7:25 pm. Indicating a significant blind spot presents a problem. This begins foggy confusion and twisted or missing information. It can also do that to the weather. You might be attempting to take direct action or feel or find out later that you are actually seriously lost. So wait on that. Also there is a chance to feel you are being swept off your feet with little knowledge of the other person: Such as your knight in shinning armor is very temporary or is about to leave or change their situation. It is possible that they are about to leave an existing mate and be available for another agenda later. But I would not want to step into that while that change was going on. The positive view of the Sun opposite Neptune is that it always seems to bring an anesthetic effect. You don’t want to trust it to make any plans or etch anything in stone. So once again wild weather would be expected for Monday night, could even be Tuesday.

8/23/11 For Tuesday the Gemini Moon is still with us. Venus and Neptune align once again this time in a split parallel and that aspect is romantic. It has sort of a dreamy view of how plans should take place. Jupiter and Palace Athena align: so these are the smart ones, the wisdom makers, 7:14AM- that will last all day long. Helps you to find good counsel, sort things through, and also it can be a lucky charm in many ways. Then the Sun enters Virgo at 7:20AMand this is until the 23rd of September. We have a Virgo Sun. That helps us get down to business, Return to work, and look for matters to be moving in the right direction. There is a very nice aspect between Mercury and Venus at 12:18 pm. Last week we saw them conjunct. Here they are conjunct sort of once again when they align in a parallel configuration. This allows for long term meetings. People that you meet you could take it to your future. These are positive relationships that are being built with this aspect. Also these could make for very favorable conditions for signing things. So this is your green light day with that Mercury Venus aspect. All the bright ideas that emerge you’ll be able to present them to the boss. The boss asks to see these bright ideas be put into action. There is a call for meetings of the minds share ideas at the table and try to work things out. You may become aware of new avenues, new people, helpful support and possibly romance with that Mercury and Venus. Conversations seem to flow easily and new plans can be made. Late night Tuesday there might be a call out of the blue with a message linked to a story you’ve been trying to decipher. The aspect is Mercury and Neptune in a split parallel. Mercury is retrograde so some of these pieces of information are fragments of things that might allow you to put two and two together.

8/24/11 Wednesday. There is a void of course Moon period Wednesday morning from 5:33AMuntil 6:30 in the morning when the Moon enters cancer. The Cancer Moon is another green light period. So we have a couple of days there to move forward. So what ever it is you’re planning on doing with the family or with people who are close. Cancer Moons are great for insider information. If you’ve been invited into a circle or if you have any invitations at all that are outside family then that means they consider you very close, insider. If there are family issues, there might be somewhat of a coming together surround the issues of problems from the past. With Mercury headed towards it stationary point there could be decisions that are made in regard to family plans maybe moving, moving older family members into places that are better suited for them. There is a Venus and Uranus aspect 7:20 pm. This may be a call to action from close friends. You might feel as though you are compelled to help. The problem might mean there is a medical issue and there also could be a need for lending cash or borrowing cash, may be even from a friend. So money could be or cost could be an issue. At 8:48PM on Wednesday Saturn and Neptune are at a 135 degree aspect. That is a cranky one. It always accompanies a shift, a change in oil prices. We see now that oil prices are falling right on time. We very often see things occur, especially with Saturn and Neptune; those slow moving planets a good week ahead if time. In our own lives you might see the business fluctuations which affect the foundation of daily needs. The Saturn and Neptune aspect might support a release of that creative block. That’s a positive turn that allows you to see past or create paths. That is part of what much of this major shift is about. Along with the square between Uranus and Pluto we are reinventing who we are and how we live. This is the time to make room for a whole new way of life.

8/24/11 For Thursday the Cancer Moon lightens up as the day moves on. We start out with a couple of tough aspects: first Mars and Neptune form a 135° aspect. This is an indication of wet, foggy and cloudy weather or the same describes the surrounding issues of matters or ideas. This is early in the morning but it will influence the day because of the fact Mars is square Saturn and Saturn in Neptune still maintain their configuration from Wednesday so Mars is just setting that off and the Moon is in with it. So boy, it should be kind of a busy day. Lots of news makers on that day. There also could be matters about money that reveal themselves or release if you have been trying to find money: Because there is a real good aspect at the end of the Cancer Moon aligns with Pluto, which can be described as Mr. Money Bags. Hopefully there is an opening to make that connection. Although there are ties attached to it with Venus and Pluto in an aspect at 7:12 pm. With this aspect you may gain enough money to repay some debts and have some left over for some personal pleasures. During the void of course Moon period Mercury and Uranus may startle your late night with an abrupt voice or the sound of things that go-bump-in-the-night as retrograde Mercury and retrograde Uranus twist or toss something. This could be twist of conversation, or an animal needs your assistance in the middle of the night. You’re going to want to try to take things as lightly as possible. Tend to whatever needs that you need to take care of: maybe the kids wake up, need to say something in the middle of the night. There are soothing changes coming up that show that things will work out later. The Moon is void of course from 10:29 PM after it is split parallel to Pluto until Friday afternoon.

8/26/11 For Friday is the day that Mercury turns direct, but not until 6:02 pm. The Moon is void of course really starting from Thursday night at 10:29PM right until 12:08PM on Friday. In case you are wondering what that means; a void of course Moon period a break in activity in some way. Many subjects are unpredictable preventing you from making solid decisions. You might view a v/c period as creative play from the universe which at times can present positive new things during void of course Moons. It is a good idea to let things come to you and avoid direct actions such as signing papers or making important purchases during a void of course Moon period. The Moon is v/c all of Friday morning. Then the Moon arrives in the sign of Leo. The Leo Moon is complicated and risky this time around because of major unforeseen complications. There reason being is that the Moon will oppose Neptune indicating that we’re missing something in the big picture. Or some of the information is either wrong or lied about. If deceit is present it could be revealed. With Mercury about to turn direct a voice emerges with what really happened. The Mercury direct station occurs at 18° Leo and it reflects on the period around the earthquake in Turkey in 1999. Another reference is in 2009 when there was a lunar eclipse in February of that year. This marked when President Obama was struggling to fill his cabinet posts after the inauguration. He took office, by the way during a Venus retrograde period. Venus is one of the rulers of the economy. When he took office it was on the verge of collapse. Bush practically turned the office over to the elected president before he was sworn in. Certainly we continue to struggle with the economy and the many stalemates in government. That’s it for the week. It’s busy and complicated. Good luck.

Mercury is Retrograde. This is a big week for creative and very personal desires.

The Sun, Venus and Mercury take the stage for something special on Tuesday. This adds to the likelihood of introductions and love connections. Choose your direction in life or find your voice with this brilliant trio at 24th degree of Leo.
___________________________________________
Saturday Aug 13. The Aquarius Moon is Full and bright in the sky. At 2:57 PM the exact moment of the Full Moon occurs at 20° Aquarius 41'. This is a good time to reach out to an audience or connect with friends and old loves. In my book Lunar Shadows III you can find a full description of the meaning of a Full Moon. Learn what people want during this time along with the best use of this type of energy, in Chapter 2. Full Moons come with a history and this one dates back to Feb 14, 2010. There was more to the story in Nov 13, 2010 and now it comes out into the open. The last piece of this story is revealed in nine months at the Last Quarter Moon May 12, 2012. You may also find connections to a solar eclipse that occurred nearly this point Feb 1999 or even the solar eclipse on Feb 2008 can be connected. This Full Moon is tightly connected, by a 45° angle, to this past week's Mars-Uranus-Pluto configurations. If you were not effect then you may become broadly aware of what it means to you over the next couple of days as the Full Moon shines light on relevant issues and exposes the voice of the people; the direction of a particular group or organization and presents a political bandwagon. There are a couple of aspects to note for Saturday night both involving Venus. Venus is at odds with Pluto when jealousy strikes and money is the only thing left to battle over. Later the marriage indicator, Juno is at odds with Venus. The marriage may be tossing around its embedded problems. This is not a good aspect to engage in a new relationship. The Aries Moon on Tuesday, Wednesday are best.

___________________________________________
Sunday Aug 14. There are iffy results to your efforts on this day. The Aquarius Moon ends with a conjunction to retrograde Neptune. The result of this Moon sign could be a wash or magical but realize there are no magic carpet rides without a hitch. The void of course Moon begins at 8:25 AM until 8:54 AM.


Again for Sunday Aug 14. After the Moon enters Pisces start a Green Light Day. The Moon enters Pisces at 8:54 AM and acts like a lucky charm with two and a half days of positive energy to move forward. Nothing stands in the way of what you need. Remember others that need your support during this Pisces Moon period through Tuesday night.

___________________________________________
Monday Aug 15. A Green Light Day. The Pisces Moon is uncomplicated by too many planetary aspects. There is a split parallel of the Sun and Ceres. This places the focus on food supplies and services to those in need.

___________________________________________
Tuesday Aug 16. A Green Light Day. This is a big day for the personal planets when The Sun Mercury and Venus all join at the 24th degree of Leo. It appears as a shinny piece of gold or a new star arrives. However the past is represented by the Pisces Moon. After the Moon is 150° quincunx the Sun, it enjoys a fine conjunction of the Sun and Venus at 8:07 AM. Love, money, sweets and rich foods. This day may have an air of fun and playfulness. A need to express your love, appreciation and affections are a priority with this conjunction. There is a desire to socialize and there are strong powers of attraction of love, enjoyment of aesthetics; harmony, creativity, and the arts and a desire to take action in these areas. There is a receptive friendliness in the air. There is a promotion of positive emotions and expressions of love. There is a desire to join with others. For personal relationships of both intimate or friendship, there may be more social opportunities for meeting new people that might become important you for many years. If they are people you have been involved with before, even better as Mercury is retrograde. It is time to make esthetic choices. All choices come from the heart. Get exactly what you want. In business you might choose this time to enhance your public and business relations. Have a sale and show your best work. Use art, color and entertainment for a positive long lasting impression.
The void of course Moon period begins when the Moon makes its final aspect and this will be at 1:07 PM until 8:01 PM. when split parallel to Saturn. Something is given serious consideration which could be revealed on Wednesday. There are good advisors around but talk of discord makes people choose between loyalties and a winning ticket. Some may try to draft a front runner from the past. Later retrograde Mercury joins Venus at 24° Leo at 7:20 PM. This is a significant aspect that signals a turn of direction. We may all find ourselves faced with an important decision. Taking action may be a process and not an event. Someone finds their voice and moves along an important route. Maybe a woman emerges as the most powerful voice. The Pisces v/c period may not be a hindrance for success as there is unusual support from private benefactors.

Sticking with Tuesday Aug 16. The Moon enters Aries at 8:01 PM and brings a few good green light days through 7:49 AM on Friday Aug 16. The Aries Moon brings another very lucky green light after 8:01 PM. There is a terrific opportunity to move forward with an idea. If you are able to launch something for the second time around you have a lucky charm with the Sun and Jupiter aligned with a nice long term parallel (exact at 10:02 PM). Mercury is retrograde and conjunct the Sun at 9:03 PM. Statements and announcements are made that could be reversed later. Those announcing candidacy for office under retrograde Mercury might struggle to stay in the race. Those taking their first shot at something or filing a court case first time around may fail.

___________________________________________
Wednesday Aug 17. Green Light. Great Day for Mercury retrograde. Try whatever you have tried before and failed or just want to try again. The Aries Moon wants to move things right along and there are a couple of snags. For one the couple, money and drive are not a good match as they battle over ego and family obligations or the man who wants children and the woman who enjoys her career when Venus and Mars clash at 45° angle at 12:26 AM. Later the Sun and Mars (45°) crank up the heat and add anger to the mix at 3:06 PM. At 9:24 PM Mars and Vesta which are both traveling out-of-bounds (oob) in renegade territory collide from two totally different camps. They might decide to work together on a hot project. Or you might just need a new stove. This pair can create large flames and with the Aries Moon to fan the blaze. Mars remains oob until Aug 21 and Vesta does not come back into the corral until Oct 31. Investments could be profitable in the short run.

___________________________________________
Thursday Aug 18- Green Light Day. Aries Moon is anxious to get the ball rolling and has a great opportunity to succeed with Mars and Jupiter at a 60° angle. This is positive Try again. Look for work in the field that you love with the help of Venus and Ceres aligned for seal the deal. Ceres can be the glue that bonds. Venus can be the money, friend or lover.

___________________________________________
Friday Aug 19- The Aries Moon is great up until 7:49 AM when it goes void of course until 8:36 AM. If you can rise early and send off important messages or head out on your trip before the v/c period you bring that momentum into your day.


Still on Friday Aug 19 -The Moon enters Taurus at 8:36 AM until next Sunday night and the mood changes. Do not sign or agree to anything important as disappointment and vanishing resources are likely. There is not another green light period in sight until Tuesday morning Aug 23. For Friday the Taurus Moon is haunted by the whims of Neptune; bringing a layer of confusion or disappointment over the primary issues which tend to be money or family values during a Taurus Moon sign. Something disappears or fails to participate or perform. A lucky break presents itself at 6:00 PM when Venus and Jupiter (parallel) gain the support they have been seeking perhaps with money or social standing but risk it not at the cost of those that have been there all along. This aspect does make this day good for a one time only event where you have no expectations. A lottery ticket is an example of a small investment without great consequence. Enjoy and play on this day for the best use of this energy.

___________________________________________
Saturday Aug 20. The Taurus Moon is not favorable for major decisions. Taurus is great for food and simple pleasures.

___________________________________________
Sunday Aug 21- First Quarter Moon at 5:54 PM at 28° Taurus 29'. Taurus Moon signals a squabble with Venus in Leo and attempts to challenge her but Venus leaves the sign before the Moon gets a chance. Venus represents the money or a woman with a high standing or high profile to step into a service role.






After the Sun enters Virgo Tues 7:39 AM Green Light.

Mars will square Uranus Tuesday then oppose Pluto Thursday

Monday August 8, 2011. Mercury goes back into Leo. That releases the grip of the Sagittarius Moon that temporarily is holding its focus on Mercury, and what that does is give us a green light after 5:46 am. That means you can move forward, although there is a lot of caution. I think of this period as if there is a Jack-in-the-box on Tuesday. So watch out. It is very dangerous. And what we have again with that Mercury the first thing it does is goes back and opposes Neptune once again. Mercury was within a degree of an opposition to Neptune when it turned retrograde last Tuesday the 2nd of August. The aspect was locked in holding pattern in opposition to Neptune Indicating the blind spots. Often this describes the things we can’t speak of, we can’t see and we can’t touch. Be cautioned about because the lies that are common with Mercury opposite Neptune. There are missing papers and missing information. We are talking Monday. It might be a hard day to make a plan for travel. If you are buying your ticket on Monday, and if you are planning on traveling later in the week, you may want to change those plans for several reasons. It is a very dangerous week for travel. Especially in places of bus stations, airports, any transit port would be under the Sagittarius Moon, a rather difficult place to be. At 10:27 am Mercury is opposite that Neptune on Monday. Mars and Palace Athena are in at odds when some information flies out of nowhere that could possibly help a situation or fuel a battle of some sort that’s 11:10 am. (London’s ablaze with rioters.) For the rest of Monday we have that green light, which I hold with caution because on Tuesday at 12:33 pm Mars is square Uranus.
Now here’s the thing with Mars square Uranus. For one thing it happens while it is in the Moon sign of Sag. Sagittarius is clumsy at best with very high energy; the type that burns the wheels right off the tires. It’s extreme, it’s sudden, it’s filled with surprise, which could include spontaneous fires, or firing, some nut with a gun will fire. The bigger thing about this Mars square Uranus is that it sets off the square once again with Pluto and later on in the week Mars will oppose Pluto. This is called a T-square.
A little breakdown of the square aspect between Pluto and Uranus is that Pluto represents the powers that be. Uranus represents kind of the powers that want to be – because they are the rebel force. They have their own truth. They want to disrupt the status quo. And they will do anything to create it – it’s the making of revolutions. This aspect is with us right up to 2015. There will be 7 events of Uranus square Pluto. So it is really a tough aspect to try and navigate. We have to learn to get used to this energy and be in a position to respond quickly and look at things in a different light. Because there will be a lot of things coming to light: Where Pluto has held down situations, conditions, economic forces and government in one way; then Uranus comes along and says lets expose this for what it really is. This next four years will be interesting to say the least and it will be eventful. So keep an eye out for Tuesday. And like I said, if you are planning on traveling, just be mindful of what is going on around you. There is an aspect on Tuesday afternoon at 4:24 pm – the Moon is sextile Neptune. This aspect presents an opportunity to see things differently, to call on support and help, and Neptune at its better position. Tuesday again the Moon changes signs goes into Capricorn at 4:37 pm and the Capricorn Moon for the rest of the day is pretty uneventful. However there is not one day that will be uneventful this week. Capricorn is all about business but this is not business as usual with all of this activity. There are a lot of things that we need to get down to business and try and make things right.
For Wednesday August 9, 2011, Uranus is opposing Juno. This is where couples break off ties. And the couples could be countries. There are other forces, such as Ceres returning to Pisces which is about the suffering and starving children. Medical procedures and visits with the people that we care for, the old people, the food on the shelves, and all that sort of thing. Ceres has a lot do to with anything that is dead serious. But going back into Pisces is definitely trying to recover and recoup the kinds of things like food supplies, try to help those that are in hospitals and otherwise infirmed. Among many other things, child care issues are likely to be large. Later on it’s Juno again. This time it’s Saturn in a split parallel aspect to Juno for a temporary fix to a relationship problem. Matters should end well with the Capricorn Moon as the final aspect of the Moon will parallel Pluto in the end. You might be tied to the devil for a time but its for the best. That will be on Thursday at 10:13 am beginning a void of course Moon period.
The void Moon period opens the door to a whole lot of things going on behind the scene earlier in that day on Thursday. At 1:14 am the big event: Mars opposing Pluto. This puts these two figures, Mars is the action planet Pluto is the money bags and powers that be. They are on opposing sides of the zodiac. And this aspect can be detrimental to the body or the body of any organization or the body of any particular any type of thing that has a body. In the case of Pluto, in this case while square to Uranus it considers packing its 6 guns with the taunting needles from Uranus. So it is really quite a week. I hate to be the deliverer of bad news. But it certainly looks like there is some pure revolutionary energy brewing. It signals also what could be done. There is a signal that there is tourniquet that is put on to try and stop the bleeding. That is at 1:57 am when the Moon and the Sun are in that 150° aspect. It’s a quincunx and it means that something needs to be attended to immediately. Hopefully we will be sleeping here on the east coast and it will fly right over our heads. For later on in the morning, Mercury and Saturn at 8:46 am form a 45° aspect, which is an indicator that there are some problems, as we all know, that need to be exposed. This is Saturn and Libra and Mercury is in the sign of Leo and retrograde. We are likely to be going back over old issues and rehashing things. Once again your might be saying “I’m so tired of talking about the same thing”. There are a couple of things going on during the void of course Moon: Mars is attempting to make an investing plan or investors plan. Also Jupiter and Ceres get together to try to bail out a problem; as Jupiter in mythology came to the aid of Ceres when she was in her greatest hour of greatest need. For Thursday night a void of course Moon period ends at 11:47 pm when the Moon enters Aquarius. The Aquarius Moon is a time this month when there will be a full Moon next Saturday. But for Friday we have the Moon sign ends with a conjunction to Neptune. I call that pea soup. It’s not really a green light. It has a lot of hidden problems with it. So there is some good stuff, some bad stuff on Friday. Some things you just don’t know or just cannot trust. At 12:20 am there is that spark of truth with a back lash as the Sun and retrograde Uranus are 135° apart. This type of aspect also reveals embedded problems and tends to be treated with a band-aid. Also late night on Friday Venus moves into the same aspect to Uranus. This exposes sudden problems within personal relationships, also again with money. Those are things near and far – as far foreign countries go. By Friday we are under the Full Moon energy in a big way. The energy is high and volatile. As a result be really careful this week. As with any Full Moon it is a deadline time. Get something done, get a lot done, wrap it up and put it out there. Even if it’s going to be a rough ride, hang on and put your seat belt on
I have a Class that has moved from Monday night. No more Monday night. We are now meeting on Wednesday night. This Wednesday night we will be meeting and discussing in particular this Mars opposite Pluto and square Uranus energy. It is a very interesting set of events and we will of course discuss what ever else comes along. You may reach me for consultation. And I’m offering a special for consultations. So call me about my special. Special price that’s at 617-924-0929.

Mercury is Retrograde and Mars sets of the Uranus Pluto Square

Good morning. For Saturday August 6, 2011 the Moon is in Scorpio and there is a 1st Qtr Moon. This has to do with the sad state of affairs actually that we’re hearing about the debt. The United States has been downgraded now from a no risk country to invest in. so now this is going to affect all of us. The credit rating being down graded is a very difficult situation. The seed to this story goes back to a New Moon in Scorpio 9 months ago at the mid-term election in November. The lot of new people that came into the government came with a different agenda. It appears that their goal is not to govern but to dismantle the government. With the nature of the pressure of the Uranus and Pluto square, this can be a treacherous time period in attempt to put the country back together. The rest of the story is yet to come in 9 months and the payoff is 9 months after that. In 9 months there will be a Full Moon on May 5, 2012 then a Last Quarter Moon in Scorpio on February 3, 2013.
In our personal lives we might be dealing with things like births and deaths and anything having to do with the regeneration process, trying to gather resources, doing a lot of research and entering into monetary agreements with others. There is a lot of positive energy for digging in deeply and making an attempt to renew an old process.

We have retrograde Mercury and its theme is to renew, review and redo. It is the retake that gets the green light. Listen closely, more forward after researching your topic very thoroughly. Many subjects that have been initiated under the Mercury retrograde have the potential to be reversed once Mercury turns direct after August 26, 2011. Hopefully that will be the case that this won’t be a forever long term thing.
For Sunday August 7 the Scorpio Moon continues. Its final aspect is a conflict with Neptune in a square at 11:13 am and that begins a void of course Moon period. You want to avoid any commitment Saturday and Sunday and Monday morning. Between now and then there are a lot of difficult traps with Neptune at the end of Aquarius it creates a great big pile of traps. That is likely to create a very sticky set of situations. If you enter into loans you may really regret it right through until Monday.
The other aspects that we have under the Scorpio Moon Venus is opposite Vesta now. Vesta is the investor. Venus is the money maker. The two of them at odds really describes this down grading of the US credit rating. Then the Sun and Palace Athena: Palace Athena is the Goddess of wisdom. So they are aligned together in a long term aspect called a parallel.

For Sunday at 11:20 am The Sagittarius Moon begins. During Sunday’s activity there are a couple of things. Retrograde Mercury goes back and hits Ceres with a 150° quincunx. Ceres is the goddess of food and supplies and children and care taking. This 150° aspect I call it life’s messy - clean it up aspect. So there might be things about the care of children that seem to be cut back or cut off. Also those that are aged and infirmed may have a hard time with that aspect trying to get their situation stabilized. This aspect may reveal some sad stories for kids and pets.So take extra care of your little ones.
