Cosmic Weather:

“Enthusiasm is a supernatural serenity.” Henry David Thoreau

There may be more of a tendency to assume “bigger is better” in all sorts of ways today, as well as perhaps a burning desire to want to “test our limits” (to get ahead) as energizing Mars, in self-willed Aries, forms an exact square with oversizing and expansive Jupiter Rx, in methodical Capricorn, a galvanizing aspect that can greatly fire up our levels of enthusiasm, motivation, and courage. Too, while we certainly can meet up with a notable amount of success today, due partly to our irrepressible “can-do” spirit, we may also want to make sure that we remember to temper our actions with at least some measure of good old-fashioned “Capricornian” common-sense so that we don’t get too carried away, or act too impulsively – typical shadow side manifestations of this particular planetary configuration. (We will also have this aspect a second time on October 19th, when Mars is retrograde.)

Orator Mercury will also be shifting into ostentatious Leo the Lion, late tonight (11:32 pm) for a two-week run.

*All times EDT

This Day in History: On August 4, 1862, the U.S. government collects its first income tax.

Astrologically, on that day, the authoritative Leo Sun was exactly square to transformational Pluto in “revenue conscious” Taurus. Often, Sun-Pluto aspects mark major turning points in life. (Pluto also rules taxes!) It should also be noted that Mars was in pioneering Aries then and separating from a trine to the Leo Sun, another indication of bold “new beginnings” in the works.

Hope you have a good one! Please be safe and well.

Cosmic Weather:

Today there’s a tendency to enthusiastically/optimistically take on more (Jup in Sag) than we can effectively handle, manage, or digest (Mars in Vir) so we need to be careful. Too, depending upon our level of zeal or passion for something, we may also be more inclined to make bold, sweeping changes, moves, or statements now, likely in a bid to assertively advance our cause(s). Our personal beliefs and/or personal philosophy of life might also be areas that we feel we must protect, defend, or explain now. That said, we can still probably get a lot accomplished today especially if we’re strategic, have a plan at hand, and remain mindful about what we’re committing to.

Meanwhile, the Moon also shifts into dreamy, transcendent Pisces, this morning, (5:51 am), in preparation for the upcoming Full Moon in Pisces on Saturday.

*All times EDT

Hope it’s a good one!

Astrology January 8, 2014 – Mars Squares Jupiter

“Once one becomes a man, he can and must make his own decisions. But I do offer warning. Even a good thing can become destructive if taken to excess.” Brandon Sanderson

COSMIC WATCH:

Knowing when to go forward, and when to retreat, could get a bit more complicated for us today with “assertive” Mars making an exact square to “exuberant” Jupiter (5:36 pm EST). Often when these two planets align, we find ourselves going a little overboard with things. Of course, the fact that the Moon is also in “unbridled” Aries, until later this evening, doesn’t really make our discernment here, any easier. (The Moon enters “stabilizing” Taurus at 9:24 pm EST).

On the plus side, this planetary pairing can serve as a mighty elixir for finally goading some of us out of our self-imposed shells, or comfort zones, and into taking much-needed action on our behalf.  Mars-Jupiter aspects have been paired with acts of courage or bravery. “Above all, be the heroine of your life, not the victim.” Nora Ephron

If you felt no fear today, what would you do?

“Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you’ve imagined.” Henry David Thoreau

COSMIC WATCH:

Taking action on matters is often a great way to boost our self-confidence. Action mobilizes our life force and helps to supply us with a sense of purpose. Like a river in motion, being active helps to get us in the flow, so we can grow. Motivational speaker, Dale Carnegie, said that the pathway to conquering fear and doubt is to “go out and get busy.”

The heavens also appear to be encouraging “forward momentum” today, as we have Mars, the planet of action, making a harmonious sextile aspect to optimistic Jupiter (9:48 am EST), the planet of abundance and opportunity. This enthusiastic influence is traditionally linked with success in business, or sports. We’re usually more eager to put our vision and ideals (Jupiter) into motion (Mars) when these two planets meet up.

BTW, Mars-Jupiter aspects are often paired with affairs of royalty. For example, Kate Middleton and Prince William were married when Mars and Jupiter were exactly conjunct in the sign of Aries.

What action would you take today if you were guaranteed success? What do you think inspires self-confidence?

Famous November 19 Birthdays:  Larry King, Ted Turner, Jodie Foster, Indira Gandhi, Jack Welch.

“Good business leaders create a vision, articulate the vision, passionately own the vision, and relentlessly drive it to completion.” Jack Welch.

Enjoy your Tuesday! Go forward with confidence.

COSMIC WATCH:

“Shoot for the moon.  Even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars.” –  Les Brown

The enterprising Aries Moon gets favorable assist today from its energetic ruler Mars, situated in security-oriented Cancer, and also expansive Jupiter, busy ringing up the cash register in money bags Taurus. Both of these heavenly bodies are harmoniously sextile to each other helping to fire up our enthusiasm and propel us at warp speed toward our goals. We are more optimistic about our future, but still have a goodly amount of practical bearings about us. A positive day to wage heroic efforts to stabilize and or upgrade our humble lot in life.

Looking back, too, we find that the last time that we had Mars in Cancer sextile Jupiter in Taurus was in September of 1964. This motivating and inspiring influence was exact on September 10th, that year, the very same day that the African Development Bank was founded. This financial institution was created for the purpose of fostering economic and social development in Africa. The bank reportedly has a public-mandate to reduce poverty through sustainable development. Fascinatingly, Jupiter governs the banking industry. It also tries to act as a goodwill ambassador, whenever it can.

Additionally, Jupiter rules foreigners and on September 10, 1964, Germany reportedly received its 1,000,000th foreign worker. How about that! Another cool astrological tie-in.

Enjoy your Thursday! Go get ’em!

COSMIC WATCH:

“Enthusiasm is the energy and force that builds literal momentum of the human soul and mind.” Bryant H. McGill

Final day for the Aries Moon. An energizing and galvanizing lunar position that supplies us with lots of momentum for getting things done.This is especially the case early and late in the day when we have the Moon sextiling enterprising Mars in clever Gemini (8:46 am EDT) and then trining “thinker” Mercury in sunny Leo (5:36 pm EDT). Both of those aspects support  our communication, discussion and decision-making efforts. We may also be waxing more eloquently now, as Mercury in Leo can be quite the orator, especially when courted by a passionate Aries Moon. Too, Moon-Mercury is a perfect time to give voice to our feelings and for speaking or writing about what is in our heart.

Enjoy your Friday!

“When there is a start to be made, don’t step over. Start where you are!” Edgar Cayce

COSMIC WEATHER:

As someone who has an early degree Aries Rising, this is my kind of day!

It’s a Monday, the start of a new work week, and the Moon is raring to go in manic Aries! For an extra dose of enthusiasm we also have energizer Mars (the ruler of Aries) enthusiastically forming a semi-fanatical, semi-square aspect to “think big” Jupiter.

Then, as a positive restraining and balancing influence, we still have Mars within range to a harmonious trine to “Yes, we can be successful! All we have to do is be willing to apply ourselves” Saturn. The net affect of all this mumbo jumbo today: Yes, we can make it happen! Let’s just do it! 🙂

“Opportunity is a bird that never perches.” Claude McDonald

COSMIC WEATHER:

Our enthusiasm knows no bounds as sexy, go-getter Mars sextiles fortuitous, expansive Jupiter, who is likely toting a large bag of goodies for us today. This is a super aspect! Great time to forge ahead with important projects, get things done, especially anything business-related, as Mars is still in ambitious Capricorn, which rules status, career, and reputation. Since Mars also rules sex there could possibly be big breakthroughs here as well, depending, of course, on the size and stature of the individual(s) we are involved with. Again, with Jupiter figuring prominently into the equation, bigger is definitely better, and very much preferred! 🙂

Also this is a more positive time for dealing with bankers, members of the military, politicians, journalists, writers, publishers, lawyers, teachers, travel agents, clergy, and athletes. Physical fitness and sports-related activities additionally get the green light. We’re loving competition now, as it gives us a golden chance to strut our hot stuff all over the place!

Our thoughts also become more pragmatic and success-oriented today with Mercury’s return to utilitarian Capricorn, where it will stay until February 3rd. We excel now by adopting a communication style that is more purposeful and strategizing. It is key now that we let others know exactly what it is that we are hoping to accomplish with respect to our major goals. A time to enlist the support of higher-ups four our noble causes.

Possible questions to ponder now:

What floats our boat or gets us excited?

If we could magically do anything today, what would we do? Change the lint filter in the dryer? Watch paint dry? Part our hair differently?

What is holding us back from doing those things that we secretly desire to do? Lack of money or resources? Lack of time? Lack of focus? Bad breath? Marital status?

What are our goals for 2011? What can we do this very day that will help to move us forward, closer to attaining those goals? Is there perhaps anyone we can bribe or pay-off to expedite our success? 🙂

Do we know anyone in high places that we can schmooze around with now, who can maybe open up a few doors for us? For instance, we may want to see if President Obama is available for perhaps lunch one day next week. Too, it will be our treat. No taxpayer expense involved. We don’t want to create a ruckus or encounter any backlash with the ongoing Pluto in governmental Capricorn purge mentality.

Patricia’s Astrology Horoscope November 8, 2010: Yes We Can

COSMIC WEATHER:

The Emotional Moon continues in “Big Picture” Sagittarius, along with Pioneering Mars. Mental Mercury also joins the proselytizing pair there today, leaving guarded Scorpio (6:43 pm EST). With the Moon, Mars, and Mercury all installed in Sagittarius, we have an enthusiastic trio of, “Yes we can!” energy at our disposal.

Also, later on in the day, the Moon forms a square aspect to Optimistic Jupiter (9:04 pm EST), the ruler of Sagittarius, at which time we should pretty much be able to “walk on water.”

Sagittarius, the Archer, is a very futuristic, positive, and goal-oriented sign known for its broad vision.  The keywords for it are: “I inspire.”

One big drawback, though, to the “Eye on the distant horizon” Sagittarius energy is that it tends to “gloss over details.” And we all know that “The Devil” is ready to pounce on us, whenever we “screw up” or “get careless” with the details. So we need to make sure today that we also enlist the support of the Shrewd, Investigative Scorpio Sun before we “get in over our head.”

Activities highlighted today: Preaching, teaching, academic matters, writing, publishing, speaking, sales, cold-calling, social networking, traveling.

Quote for Today:

“If you only do what you know you can do – you never do very much.” Tom Krause

This Day in History:

On November 8, 1989, Douglas Wilder is elected the first black U.S. governor (Virginia).  Also, on that same date, David Dinkins is elected the first black mayor of New York city.

On that day, the Sun, Mercury, and Pluto are all exactly conjunct in “Transforming” Scorpio, the sign which Pluto rules. So we had like a “double-whammy” of major “renovating-type” energy.

Normally, when the Sun, which signifies power and leadership issues, conjoins “Controlling” Pluto, matters of dominance and control naturally come to the forefront. Intellectual Mercury’s inclusion here also suggests that our “mental consciousness” of the day was “more predisposed” towards embracing the idea of “a new order.” (Scorpio)

“Trailblazing” Mars was also at 2 degrees of Scorpio and exactly sextile to “Equality Ruling” Uranus, the electrifying “planet of change,”  at 2 degrees of Capricorn, the sign that “rules government.” “Energizer” Mars always tends to “fire us up,” and aligned with “Out of the Box” Uranus, we were much more likely to want to embark down “new” or “non-traditional” paths then, and also more interested in seeing that others also be granted “equal rights” or “equal input” (Uranus) in the hierarchy of government (Capricorn).
