COSMIC WEATHER:

“All charming people, I fancy, are spoiled. It is the secret of their attraction.” Oscar Wilde

The late Elizabeth Taylor and the late Johnny Cash (born just a day apart) both had their Venus (ruling love, beauty, creativity, and power of attraction) exactly conjunct high-voltage Uranus (urge for individuality) in self-expressive Aries. The Venus-Uranus conjunction is often the hallmark of charismatic individuals with unique talents and gifts (and often striking appearances). We have this very same aspect today in Aries for the first time in over 75 years (10:29 pm EDT).

This Venus-Uranus influence can also make us crave more emotional excitement in our relationships and also in our pleasurable pursuits (ruled by Venus). Too, we are possibly more inclined to forge ties (Venus) with more non-conforming (Uranus) types, or to people we normally would not be attracted to. Venus-Uranus is also known for having sympathy for those who are perceived as “underdogs,” and this aspect often figures in prominently with the emergence of “gay rights” issues in the news.

Additionally, Venus-Uranus has a legacy of spawning “sudden infatuations” and instant “electrifying” relationships. Interestingly, John Lennon and Paul McCartney also met on a day when Venus was conjunct Uranus in entertainment Leo. Of course, we all know what transpired from that union. So, today could be filled with a lot of exciting possibilities for us, if we mingle. Too, this is a fantastic aspect for any creative endeavors.

Meanwhile, the Moon enters ambitious Capricorn (6:26 am EDT) today, kindling our desire to get ahead on the career front. The Moon’s square to rebel Uranus (10:34 am EDT), however, could create some fallout for us, if we try to rock the boat too much. Also, if we are too greedy for power, we could encounter some opposition when the Moon conjuncts controlling Pluto (7:52 pm EDT). At the same time, however, this aspect could be a potent time for networking, as Pluto can denote important “movers and shakers.”

Too, with the Venus-Uranus influence exact today, we may want to consider “altering our appearance,” such as maybe trying out a new hairstyle, or adding more pizzaz to our wardrobe (perhaps something ‘electric blue’ for Uranus).

Famous Birthdays April 22: Jack Nicholson (74), Glen Campbell (75).

Happy Earth Day! Enjoy your weekend!

Patricia’s Astrology Horoscope November 1, 2010: Love Spells

COSMIC WEATHER:

The Night Goddess Moon is conducting quality control in Continuous Improvement Virgo. We may want to follow her example and set about improving procedures and protocol in our own lives.

The Virgo Moon loves dissecting and breaking things apart to observe operational efficiencies. Virgo symbolically rules the digestive system in the body.

Too, with the Illuminating Sun in Sexy Scorpio, a sign that is also highly investigative in its own right, some of us now may want to undertake a thorough analysis of our more intimate night moves, with a thought on how to perfect them. Scorpio does rules sex therapy. 🙂

It should also be noted that today, The Love Maven herself, Ms. Venus, in Passionate Scorpio, is involved in yet another retrograde linkup with Penetrating Pluto in High Achievement Capricorn. This is compliments of that “naughty little sextile aspect.” What this means is that we may be infinitely more appealing to the opposite sex now. Hooray!!!

So, despite the fact that it’s a Monday, we probably need to get off of our duffs and back to work casting those heavy-duty love spells, brewing up those alluring love potions, as these efforts may finally pay off for a change. Who knows, George Clooney may even appear on our doorstep again, if we are diligent enough in our spell-making.

Mesmerizing Venus-Pluto can sometimes even brings us “our soulmate.” Or at least, with a Tidy Virgo Moon also beaming down, someone with “above average” vacuuming skills, a much-needed talent which can do wonders for preserving relationships in the long run.

Activities highlighted today: cleaning, organizing, taking inventory, weeding, pruning, crossword puzzles, editing, counseling, holistic and alternative healing methods, fixing what’s broken, eliminating what is no longer needed, scaling back on activities that are taking up too much of our time.

Quote for Today:

“One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life: that word is love.” Sophocles

This Date In History:

On November 1, 1972, the first “gay theme” TV Movie airs, “That Certain Summer.” Mars, which rules sex, was exactly conjunct Equality planet Uranus in partnership Libra. Uranus perennially defies convention and tradition, so we had a movie come out here that unabashedly showcased gay romance, something unprecedented for that time period.  As I have mentioned here before, Uranus’s ray is often prominent in gay rights issues.

Additionally, Love Goddess Venus was exactly conjunct Transforming Pluto, also in relationship Libra, another pivotal influence that can serve to “reframe” relationships in new ways.

(Today, we have Venus sextile Pluto, a similar aspect to the Venus-Pluto conjunction. We may want to keep our eyes on the news to see if any compelling “relationship issues” grab the headlines.

Sometimes, too, Venus-Pluto can be manipulative with our emotions. The “Balloon Boy” saga unfolded last fall with Venus square Pluto. Many of us were then “taken in” by the event. Usually “a lot of drama” occurs with Venus-Pluto.

Speaking of drama, this aspect can also signal a time when our “ex-lovers” come back from the dead to haunt us, especially now when we are still so close to spooky Halloween.)

COSMIC WEATHER:

Moon continues in Earthy, Sensual Taurus. And, with four planets in Sexy Scorpio, including the Love Duo of Venus and Mars, it may be a good time to lounge around the boudoir and perfect our intimate night moves. Even in the daytime!

What’s also cool here is Mars (which rules sex) is exactly trine Uranus, the planet of Originality.  Uranus is also in Fantasy-Minded Pisces. There’s no way we can lose now.  All we have to do is be a little original!

I have also listed down below, different events that have occurred in recent years, with Mars-Uranus.  This is a time when we want to change things up. Be willing to get out of our box. Look at our lives in new ways.  Even making minor changes today may serve us well in the long run.

Activities Spotlighted Today: Boating, fishing, dancing, research, studying astrology (Uranus rules astrology), meditation, treasure-hunting, reviewing insurance and financial matters, theater, music, painting, sculpting, ceramics, romance, gardening, baking, massage, facials.

On This Date In History:

October 24, 1901: Anna Taylor becomes the first woman in history to go over Niagara Falls in a barrel. The Moon was in Sea-Ruling Pisces. The Sun had also just entered Resourceful Scorpio and was exactly trine Neptune (the ruler of Pisces), making it an ideal time for aquatic activities.  Neptune and Pisces both rule boating and, I guess, in this case, a barrel qualifies as a form of navigation on the water.

Another aspect I love here is Venus, ruling women, was in adventurous Sagittarius, and exactly conjunct Experimental Uranus. Venus also represents our hobbies and pastimes, what we enjoy doing in our free time for recreation. On Venus-Uranus days, we often are in the mood to “try new pleasures.” Uranus also has a need for originality, and putting its personal stamp on everything. Way to go, Anna! Better you than me.

In the News:

Almost 400,000 classified field reports from the Iraqi War were released by Wikileaks on Friday, the same day we had the Full Moon in Aries.  Aries rules war and the military; full moons bring illumination.

Mars (ruler of Aries) in Investigative Scorpio was also applying to an exact trine to Rebel Uranus in Behind the Scenes Pisces, when the disclosure was made, probably another factor in helping to bring the hidden (classified) information to the forefront. Uranus can bring “sudden new developments,” and aligned with Mars, these developments can center around the war and military. Several U.S. officials have condemned the leaks including Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Some other notable events with Mars trine Uranus in the recent past:

1) Oct 29, 2008 – Delta Airlines merged with Northwest Airlines forming the world’s largest commercial air carrier. Mars was in Scorpio (the sign of joint resources) and trine to Uranus in Pisces (just like now). (Uranus rules aviation, Pisces is the sign that dissolves borders. Mars blazes new trails.)

2) Nov 4, 2008 – Mars in Scorpio separating 2 degrees from a trine to Uranus in Pisces: Barrack Obama is elected President of the U.S. Mars in Scorpio is transformational and Uranus is the planet of change.  Obama ran on a “platform of change.”

3) May 17, 2004 – Mars in Familial Cancer trine Uranus in Pisces: Massachusetts legalizes same-sex marriage in compliance with a ruling from the state’s Supreme Judicial Court (Goodridge v. Department of Public Health).  Mars rules sex and Uranus is associated with equality. Frequently when gay rights issues are in the news, Uranus’ ray is prominent.

4) November 25, 2002 – U.S. President George W. Bush signs the Homeland Security Act into law, creating the Department of Homeland Security, in the largest U.S. government reorganization since the Department of Defense was created in 1947. Mars was in Judicial Libra trine Uranus in Experimental Aquarius.

Mars rules defense and the military.  It also rules the aggressive urge.  With the “animalistic” side of Mars, we are more concerned with basic self-preservation issues. Mars-Uranus makes us more amenable to making sweeping changes, trying new things out. Also at the time, Expansive Jupiter was in Leadership Leo exactly sextile to Transforming Pluto in Patriotic Sagittarius. With Jupiter-Pluto we are looking to expand our range of control. Sagittarius adds more of a zealotry to whatever we are doing.  It also rules politics and our moral beliefs.  Pluto’s ray is often activated with respect to issues of terrorism and subversive groups, and the Homeland Security department was largely a response to 9/11.

5) June 5, 2000 – 405 The Move, the first short film widely distributed on the Internet, is released.  Mars was in Communicative Gemini trine Uranus in Aquarius.  Uranus rules the internet. (Mercury was also exactly quinqunx Neptune in Aquarius, with Neptune ruling films.)

“Sex is good, but not as good as fresh, sweet corn.” Garrsion Keillor

COSMIC WEATHER:

“Health-conscious” Virgo Sun opposes “Over-indulgent” Jupiter and also “You Can’t Force Me To Eat My Vegetables!” Uranus in “Please Don’t Hold Me Accountable” Pisces. Dietary discipline may very much be needed today. Especially with the “Liquor-Friendly” Pisces Moon wanting to substitute tequilas instead of fresh fruit for dessert. Too, with today’s more “unsettled energy” pattern around us now, we may all be wanting a few stiff drinks by the end of the day. (Try breathing slowly and meditatively chanting instead.  Remember, the Moon is still in “mystically-minded” Pisces.)

NEWS UPDATE:

With the Virgo Sun opposing the Jupiter and Uranus conjunction (forcing Equality Issues) in Underdog Pisces today, the U.S. Senate is slated to cast a pivotal vote on the military’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy. Uranus is usually emphasized when “gay rights” issues come to the forefront, as Uranus embodies “freedom of expression” within the framework of “groups and the collective.”

Patricia’s Astrology: Saturn in Libra 2010 and Same Sex Marriage

Federal Judge Vaughn R. Walker, on Thursday, lifted his stay on the same-sex marriages ban, paving the way for gay couples in California to marry in that state. Walker delayed, however, implementation of his order to lift the ban until August 18th.

Walker’s ruling a week ago, that a voter-approved ban on same sex marriage (Proposition Eight) was unconstitutional, was rendered with pioneering Mars in Matrimonial Libra exactly squaring off with transformational Pluto in Capricorn, the sign of government. Mars, the energy planet, symbolizes “bold action.”

Libra not only rules marriage it also presides over the courts and judicial system, so the federal judge would be symbolized here by Mars in judicial Libra. Mars and Pluto are both often involved with “historic firsts.” Pluto also represents “the masses” and matters that impact the collective.

Mars-Pluto can be indicative of someone “seizing power” or taking “forceful, transforming action.” It’s also a classic “war aspect” replete with power clashes and clashes of will. There is strong opposition to Judge Walker’s ruling. President Obama reportedly supports civil unions between gay and lesbian couples, but is against gay marriages.

Also, “Karma Lord” Saturn in Nuptials Libra was opposite Uranus in Aries when Walker ruled last week.  Uranus is associated with equality and gay rights issues and also represents change. With the Saturn and Uranus opposition, once again, we had the pitting of the old, signified by Saturn, versus the new, with the new winning out this time, perhaps due again to the simultaneously strong Mars-Pluto aspect which tends to bulldoze or reconfigure existing structures and protocol. Mars-Pluto is, unquestionably, one of the most transforming and powerful energy aspects in astrology.

On August 18th, Saturn in relationship Libra will be exactly squaring controlling, transforming Pluto to a tee. It ought to be interesting to see how this aspect plays out. Saturn-Pluto can represent “death to the past,” but often not without a bitter fight and, of course, same-sex marriage remains a controversial and polarizing issue.

Libra is also the sign of the scales and balance, and it seems Serious Saturn here is putting the discussion of this weighty matter back on the table for further examination, now that it is in the matrimonial sign.  Saturn will be in Libra through October of 2012.

“Any real ecstasy is a sign you are moving in the right direction.” St. Teresa of Avila


COSMIC WEATHER:

The Universe is suggesting we “mingle and merge,” this weekend.  It’s providing us with an idealistic, romantic Libra Moon all Friday and into Saturday.  The Moon will also conjoin “Love Goddess” Venus (4:59 am EDT Friday) and “Sex Lord” Mars (9:22 am EDT Friday).

The Moon will then descend into Sexual Scorpio on Saturday evening (8:27 pm EDT), at which time we are highly urged to practice our “night moves” with grace and precision, particularly when the Moon throws a “sextile” aspect to “Passionate” Pluto (1:37 am EDT Sunday).

We also have the option of continuing to perfect these steamy activities throughout the day on Sunday, as the Moon stays in Scorpio all day long. Or, we can choose to do weeding and yard work.  It’s up to us. We only need to make sure that if we do choose the second option, that we don’t get carried away and try to “get intimate”  with the lawn mower. A potentially painful proposition that could also result in an “uneven lawn,” which could make us wildly unpopular in the neighborhood.

Enjoy your weekend!

I will be away from this blog for a while.  My 2 degree Aries rising is being sadistically hounded by the likes of Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto, at the moment, so I must go into seclusion and hiding for a while, with or without George Clooney. George, if you’re out there, I have some milk and cookies for you. Please stop by.

Anyway, I’ll return here once I deem it is safe to come back out. Right now, it’s a battlefield out there, so I’m seeking cover. I also do need some rest. Been burning the candle at both ends, and, sadly, there is very little of my candle left to burn at this point.

COSMIC WEATHER:

The Universe is suggesting we “mingle and merge,” this weekend.  It’s providing us with an idealistic, romantic Libra Moon all Friday and into Saturday.  The Moon will also conjoin “Love Goddess” Venus (4:59 am EDT Friday) and “Sex Lord” Mars (9:22 am EDT Friday).

The Moon will then descend into Sexual Scorpio on Saturday evening (8:27 pm EDT), at which time we are highly urged to practice our “night moves” with grace and precision, particularly when the Moon throws a “sextile” aspect to “Passionate” Pluto (1:37 am EDT Sunday).

We also have the option of continuing to perfect these steamy activities throughout the day on Sunday, as the Moon stays in Scorpio all day long. Or, we can choose to do weeding and yard work.  It’s up to us. We only need to make sure that if we do choose the second option, that we don’t get carried away and try to “get intimate”  with the lawn mower. A potentially painful proposition that could also result in an “uneven lawn,” which could make us wildly unpopular in the neighborhood.

In the News:

Federal Judge Vaughn R. Walker, on Thursday, lifted his stay on the same-sex marriages ban, paving the way for gay couples in California to marry in that state. Walker delayed, however, implementation of his order to lift the ban until August 18th.

Walker’s ruling a week ago, that a voter-approved ban on same sex marriage was unconstitutional, was rendered with pioneering Mars in Matrimonial Libra exactly squaring off with transformational Pluto in governmental Capricorn. Mars-Pluto can be indicative of someone “seizing power” or taking “forceful action.”  It is also a classic “war aspect” replete with power clashes and clashes of will. There is strong opposition to Judge Walker’s ruling.

Also, “Status Quo Preserver” Saturn in Nuptials Libra was opposite Uranus in Aries when Walker ruled last week.  Uranus is associated with equality and gay rights issues and also represents change. With the Saturn and Uranus opposition, once again, we had the pitting of the old versus the new, with the new winning out this time, perhaps also because of the simultaneously strong Mars-Pluto aspect which tends to bulldoze existing structures and protocol.

On August 18th, Saturn in relationship Libra will be exactly squaring transforming Pluto to a tee. It ought to be interesting to see how this aspect plays out. Saturn-Pluto can represent “death to the past,” but often not without a bitter fight and, of course, same-sex marriage remains a controversial and polarizing issue.

Famous Leo Birthdays: Fidel Castro (84 Friday), Halle Berry (44 Saturday), Melinda Gates (46 Sunday)

Enjoy your weekend!

I will be away from this blog for a while.  My 2 degree Aries rising is being sadistically hounded by the likes of Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto, at the moment, so I must go into seclusion and hiding for a while, with or without George Clooney. George, if you’re out there, I have some milk and cookies for you. Please stop by.

Anyway, I’ll return here once I deem it is safe to come back out. Right now, it’s a battlefield out there, so I’m seeking cover. I also do need some rest. Been burning the candle at both ends, and, sadly, there is very little of my candle left to burn at this point.

Patricia Thompson’s Astrology May 28, 2010: Be The Change

“I see my path, but I don’t know where it leads.  Not knowing where I’m going is what inspires me to travel it.” Rosalia de Castro

The Moon in Sagittarius resonates to the inner explorer in each of us today. And, with Uranus now crossed over into the new frontiers territory of Aries, new desires are beckoning us.  Old dreams are rekindled.

We are not quite sure where we are headed or where we may end up.  All we know is the journey has begun.

Some of us, too, may be scared by the prospect of not knowing exactly where our path may be leading us.

However, we must know and remember that in order to truly grow and flourish with respect to our own truth, and to ultimately endure, we have to be willing to venture outside of our comfort zone, even if we only take the proverbial “baby steps” in the beginning.

And, we are not alone.  Uranus in Aries will be taking each of us by the hand and paternally guiding us along the way, whispering in our ear about new possibilities.

Of course, too, in more short-fused Aries, cantankerous Uranus’s soft whisper may turn into a thunderous shout, if we do not heed his revelations for our lives.

In current news:

The U.S. House voted Thursday to let the Defense Department repeal the ban on gay and bisexual people from serving in the military, a huge step toward ending the 1993 ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ law.

This vote came with liberator Uranus, the planet associated with gay rights and social equality issues, at the tale end of Pisces.  Pisces is a compassionate sign that is often associated with civil rights and watching over the downtrodden.

I thought the timing of this matter was rather symbolic, indicating that while equality here on this matter has been a long struggle, at the end of the day, we can finally know and trust that it is possible to indeed change the status quo, if only we keep fighting for what we believe in.

Aries also rules war and the military. With Uranus in Aries, we will now likely see the dawning of a new day whereby gays and bisexuals can proudly defend the U.S. without fear of reprisal.

What a spectacular new beginning for our country, and for the world, and what a glorious way to mark Uranus’s grand entrance into Aries.

What, of course, would be even far more glorious would be no reason for America, or for any country, to ever have to go to war again. But, will that day ever come? We’ve got to believe that it will.

Enjoy your Friday. Be the change you are seeking.

Patricia Thompson Astrology Horoscope May 20, 2010: Oprah

“Why is it that, as a culture, we are more comfortable seeing two men holding guns than holding hands?” – Ernest Gaines.

We have the Sun today at the tale end of pragmatic Taurus harmoniously linking up (sextile) to innovator Uranus in Pisces. There is fresh opportunity here to improve our lives in a practical way (Taurus) with the inclusion of some new methods and ideas (Uranus).

With Sun-Uranus, we may suddenly have some “aha moments” in which we are able to figure some things out that may have previously stumped us.  Uranus rules genius and invention. This is a very cool influence.  It also speaks voluminously to us about liberation (Uranus) and personal freedom and wanting to include more freedom into our lives.

Relationship Venus is also now in nurturing Cancer, the sign of home and family. We start focusing more on nesting matters with Venus here although today, with the restless, exploratory Sun-Uranus ray in operation, we may not be ready just yet to find a good measure of our fulfillment sticking close to the home front.

The Moon leaves entertaining, self-expressive Leo and heads into neat-freak Virgo at 7:59 pm EDT at which time we may decide that, yes, perhaps our true purpose and calling in this lifetime may in fact be to stand behind a vacuum tidying up our little (Cancer) nests.

Astrology in real life:

Did you see Oprah yesterday? The program was kind of a poster child for what we had playing out in the heavens on Wednesday.

Oprah started the show talking to Bret Michaels, his first TV interview since his brain hemorrhage last month. Bret spoke about his new lease on life after his near-death experience.

Then she interviewed country star Chely Wright.  Chely talked about how her coming out as a lesbian has helped her to finally live her truth.

Yesterday, if you recall, we had Venus exactly square Uranus. Venus rules romance and relationships.  When it is paired with rebel Uranus in our own personal horoscopes, we have a tendency to form unconventional or non-traditional alliances.

Venus-Uranus correspondingly denotes gay and lesbian unions, a topic in which I have written about a few times before here at this blog. Also, on days when we have Venus-Uranus aspects, gay and lesbian issues often move to the forefront with respect to the collective.   Oprah’s TV Show, of course, reaches millions of viewers and has a role in shaping mass consciousness.

We also had Mercury, which rules communication and interviews, exactly trine Pluto on Wednesday.  As I noted here yesterday, often with Mercury-Pluto we hear about big secrets, as Pluto epitomizes things that are hidden.

As ruler of Scorpio, Pluto also specifically governs hidden sexual issues, as well as matters of death and rebirth.  Pluto also rules the masses.

Chely poignantly revealed to us on Oprah how she had lived a total lie all her life by not coming forward with her true sexuality (Pluto).  She also shared that she had almost committed suicide (Pluto) by putting a gun in her mouth.

Bret Michaels also talked about how fortunate he was that he did not die (Pluto) and how he felt reborn now (Pluto) in wake of the experience.  Both interviews were heavily laden with the Pluto death and rebirth themes.

There were also strong undercurrents of yesterday’s nebulous Sun square Neptune influence on the program, especially Chely’s disclosure that she had been living a lie (Neptune rules deception). Neptune also depicts the more fragile or tenuous nature of the physical life form and often demonstrates to us, through its activation in our lives, how sometimes our ability to hold onto the physical body is as precarious as holding onto a single thread.

Neptune, known as the Great Dissolver, symbolizes the dissolving of physical boundaries in its quest to transition us into the spirit world.  Neptune denotes our spiritual component or link to the Divine. Both Chely Wright and Bret Michaels spoke to Oprah about praying to God (Neptune) to save them in their moments of despair.

We also saw another variation of the Sun-Neptune energy playing out before the collective yesterday. A U.S. jury decided that drug-maker Novartis must pay $250 million in damages to more than 5,000 current and former employees.  The jury award came two days after the finding that the U.S. division of the company discriminated against women over pay, promotion and pregnancy.

Neptune rules drugs and pharmaceutical companies.  Aquarius, the sign Neptune is currently in, also rules equality issues and epitomizes the needs and rights of the individual within the collective. Often when Aquarius is emphasized there is progress regarding individual rights. The Sun in the money-sign of Taurus also spelled bad news for the drug-maker, in terms of its’ financial liability.

Yesterday’s Venus square Uranus influence also entered into the equation here since we were dealing with a gender bias issue. Venus also denotes females and Uranus, as ruler of Aquarius, is now in the sign of  Neptune-ruled Pisces (drugs).

Too, the discrimination ruling against the company two days ago came with the mutable T-Square in full force involving Saturn, Venus, Uranus and Jupiter. Saturn is in Virgo, ruling employment matters. Jupiter and Uranus are in Pisces, the Neptune ruled sign associated with drugs.  Venus (females) was squaring off against the Virgo and Pisces energies, forcing this gender-related issue.

I thought it was very symbolic, too, to have Uranus, the liberator, at the very end of Pisces, representing the full fruition of all the sign stands for.  Pisces not only rules drugs, it also depicts segments of society that are downtrodden and discriminated against.

Enjoy your Thursday!  Expect some “aha moments.”
