COSMIC WEATHER:

“I sometimes wonder whether all pleasures are not substitutes for joy.” C. S. Lewis

Interesting astrological fact: Mick Jagger and Bill Clinton are both proud Leo Suns, with their Moons in earthy, sensual Taurus. See any similarity between the two of them in terms of their personality and behavior? Remember Bill’s saxophone performance on the Arsenio Hall Show several years ago? Any shades of Mick there? 🙂

Well, the “night owl” Moon is back in Venus-ruled Taurus today, so this is a time when we may want to indulge our senses and pamper ourselves. The Taurus Moon is fond of “hedonistic” pleasures. At the same time, it is also practical and resourceful. (Taurus rules money and possessions.)

The Moon also trines “problem-solving” Pluto (10:48 am EDT), so it appears that there is very little that we cannot do today, if we but only put our minds to it and also stay cooperative (sometimes with Pluto, we try to “run the show”). Too, we still have Mick’s “start-me-up” Aries energy beaming down upon us (Sun, Mercury, Jupiter, Uranus in Aries).

Later on, the “sweet” Taurus Moon forms a sexy sextile to relationship Venus (7:03 pm EDT). Definitely a time when we will want to be making a “love connection.” Power of attraction Venus helps us attract the “reality we desire.”

Famous Birthdays April 5: Colin Powell (74), late Betty Davis (103). BTW, Betty had her pioneering Aries Sun exactly square to her natal Uranus in professional Capricorn, helping to make her a “one of a kind” original.

In the News: With the Moon in “money-minded” Taurus trining “purging” Pluto, U.S. House Republicans today proposed a budget for the next fiscal year that would reportedly spend $3.53 trillion, $179 billion dollars less then the plan put forth by President Obama. It would also supposedly balance the budget by 2015. (WSJ.com) “Bulldozing” Pluto in action? Too, Pluto tends towards “extremism.”

Mercury Conjunct Pluto: Bill Clinton Presidential Library Opens

This Date In History:

November 18, 2004:

The William J. Clinton Presidential Library and Museum opens in Little Rock Arkansas, with over two million photographs and 80 million documents. Communicator Mercury, ruling words and reading, is conjunct Transforming Pluto in Literary Sagittarius, the sign of books and publishing.

“Mercury-Pluto” is often “game-changing,” to the degree that our mental perceptions are often transmuted (Pluto) in wake of new information (Mercury). Pluto also rules what has previously been “hidden” or “kept secret.” With Mercury-Pluto, we traditionally become privy to information (Mercury) that we perhaps did not know about before (Pluto).

The ruler of Sagittarius, Expansive Jupiter, in Diplomatic Libra, was also exactly trine to Image Ruling Neptune (Neptune rules photography) in Hi-Tech Aquarius. Jupiter is also associated with “politics” and “political statesmen.” With Jupiter trine Neptune, there is also more of a predilection and mindset to “idealize” or “look fondly upon” things.  Perhaps, in this case, it was looking more favorably upon political statesman, Bill Clinton.

Additionally the Sun, signifying world leaders, was in Refurbishing Scorpio (Pluto-ruled sign) and forming an exact trine to Achievement Saturn in Home-Based Cancer. “Sun trine Saturn” here would be symbolizing a dignitary (Clinton-Sun) being recognized and offered up “in an altering way” (Scorpio) for his worldly accomplishments (Saturn). That celebration formally taking place near the location of his “familial roots.” (Cancer) The sign of Cancer also governs history, and, of course, the library is historical in nature.

“The story that began in a little house on Hervey Street in Hope, Arkansas, inspires people from every background all over America,” President George W. Bush, at the opening ceremony for the Clinton library.

Patricia’s Astrology: October 15, 1969 “The Vietnam Moratorium”

On This Date In History:

October 15, 1969 – The “Vietnam Moratorium” is held.  Millions of people protest the war (including Bill Clinton, who was a student at Oxford then). In the heavens, passionate “Warrior” Mars in Capricorn, the sign of government, is exactly square to “Philosophical” Jupiter in Libra, the sign of peace and diplomacy.

“Mars-Jupiter” is an aspect with a great history of “firing up our passions and idealism.” Mars, the energy planet, energizes whatever it touches and Jupiter represents our moral beliefs.  We are willing to “do combat” (Mars) for “what we believe in” now (Jupiter), similar to the energy of today’s Aquarius Moon which speaks to us about getting involved in causes “greater than ourselves.” With the Vietnam Moratorium, the protesters peacefully dissented (diplomatic Libra) against the “war policies”of the government (Mars in Capricorn). Mars rules war and the military.

Often Mars-Jupiter is associated with “religious fanaticism,” too, as Jupiter rules religion, and the nature of  Jupiter is such (especially when it is aligned with energizer Mars) that we can easily “go overboard” and get “carried away” with whatever we are involved with.

Even though Jupiter is an “expansive influence,” and more of a “benevolent planet,” sometimes the pitfall with it is we do not know when to “rein ourselves in.” For example, Jupiter is also associated with obesity and excess. We can’t stop with just “one jelly doughnut,” we have to consume a whole dozen! So, moderation is often needed and called for with Jupiter, if we are going to judiciously utilize the opportunity energies of this great planet to the best capacity.
