“My problem lies with reconciling my gross habits with my net income.” Errol Flynn

Cosmic Weather:

Moon continues in acquisition-minded Taurus, which governs money, possessions, and what we esteem or value. Our values, too, can often be decoded by what we spend our money on. We may want to focus now on practical ways to build up our precious nest egg, while simultaneously luxuriating around the house in our silk pajamas eating bon-bons. The Venus-ruled Taurus Moon is all about seeking out decadent pleasure, creature comforts, indulging the physical senses, in addition to having to grapple with the often “weightier issue” of procuring material security, a matter which can often feel like having a big “noose around our neck,” especially in today’s challenging economic climate.

Things to think about today: Are we satisfied with our present financial situation? Do we have enough money coming into our household to meet our daily needs, and to also lead the lifestyle that we desire? Too, are we grateful for the things that we already have in our life? Are we managing our resources diligently, or do we squander our money? Are there any steps that we can maybe take now to make our lives more materially-secure?

Also, in our quest for material abundance, should we try, perhaps, to get on the Oprah Show, before she goes off the air, in hopes that she will be characteristically playing Santa again in the near future? Maybe we should also go so far as to suggest to Oprah, maybe through an email to her website, oprah.com, that she make every future Oprah show, this 2011 season, a yuletide-spirited “favorite things show,” since this is, sadly, her last go round (aside, of course, from OWN), and that lucky Jupiter is still technically and philanthropically aligned with Oprah’s ruling planet, Uranus, which also rules broadcasting (Oprah is an Aquarian). Point out to her that it is “clearly written in the stars” for her to keep playing a generous Santa-type role now, since Jupiter rules Santa Claus, and she is in Uranian-ruled broadcasting, and these two planets are together now.

Also, make her existentially aware of the fact that this same “Jupiter-Uranus configuration” is the very “believe in miracles” thing that she is always alluding to in her insightful, consciousness-raising dialogue with us. Don’t anyone say, either, that this is “too much of a stretch” here, about the possible Oprah involvement or rescue in our lives. We have all simply got to believe this, in order to achieve it! Jupiter-Uranus in visionary Pisces is about dreaming, and hope for a bright future, especially one with Hugh Jackman in Australia. We can’t help it if lovely, dear Oprah, just happens to be part of the equation. Simultaneously, we are very glad and thankful that she is. 🙂

It’s very cool, too, that when the magical Jupiter-Uranus aspect was exact to the minute last week, “St. Nick” Oprah publicly discussed making “Ted Williams,” an ex-radio announcer, the official voice of the OWN network. Not sure if this is going to happen, but we have got to love Ted’s timing! Surfacing when he did, thanks to that fortuitous, caring newspaper guy at the Columbus Dispatch, originally spotting him, and later going to bat for him by posting his encounter with Ted via a Pisces-ruled video on the Uranian-ruled internet. Uranus also rules radio announcers, with the Jupiter-Uranus aspect here, helping to miraculously sweeten Ted’s lot. So glad for all the success and love swirling around Ted Williams.

(Since originally writing the above on Monday, Ted has reportedly entered rehab for his alleged addiction problems. Apparently, with prompting from television’s Dr. Phil. Jupiter’s intrinsic nature can be protective, and aligned with Uranus, there can be a sudden “awakening” and swift movement in our affairs. Pisces also happens to govern rehabilitation and rehab centers. Neptune, Pisces’ ruler, is associated with addiction and dependencies.  Hopefully, Ted will now be able to acquire the care that his spirit maybe needs, so that he can continue positively on his path. To go from homelessness, to overnight celebrity on a world-stage, I believe, would be very stressful for most of us.

Another thing that I think has been enlightening about this Jupiter-Uranus conjunction in Pisces now, on more of a collective basis, is that by hearing about Ted’s story, hearing about his struggles over the years, and his battle with his addictions, we are becoming keenly reminded again about the matter of addictions, a Pisces-related subject. (Too, of course, there has been the ongoing, high-profile story of Lindsey Lohan and her alleged addiction problems.)

So many of us privately suffer from addictions, whether to food, drugs, sex, etc. Also, ironically while writing/updating this right now, I just came across a news story that said that Oprah reportedly told Piers Morgan in an interview that she coped with depression, at one time, by eating “30 pounds of mac n’ cheese!” This overeating or binging by Oprah reportedly was a way of coping for her, in the face of her movie, “The Beloved,” flopping at the box office, sending her into a temporary, downward, emotional spiral. Also kind of weird here: Ted Williams just made those four Kraft Macaroni and Cheese commercials last week, as part of his newly-found fame. Could there be a possible Jupiter-Uranus connection to all this? The plot thickens! Or, would we be more technically correct here by saying, “the cheese melts?” 🙂 Hopefully, too, Oprah won’t be tempted again to fall off the wagon, with the mac n’ cheese, despite Ted’s inadvertently “rubbing her nose in it” by recording the commercials.

In addition to representing addictions, Pisces also denotes those persons who are disenfranchised or downtrodden. Or maybe confined, hidden away. Or people who are simply “down on their luck,” with their voices suppressed or muted, or problematic, for one reason or another. Perhaps some of these individuals lead more nomadic type lifestyles i.e. are homeless, like Ted Williams. Or, it could be that they are mentally or physically ill. Also, of course, there is the very tragic matter of that shooter in Tucson, allegedly suffering from serious mental illness, who has suddenly come on all our radar screens now in the worst possible way. The “Pisces” experience often symbolizes that part of life that we prefer not to think about, or psychologically visit. As it can show us our limitations, our afflictions. Our pain and desperation.

Pisces, as a level of experience, however, can also nobly point out to us the deep need, both individually and collectively, for having sympathy and extending compassion. Reminding us of the basic fact of life on the earth plane: That, in the end, we are all “our brother’s keeper.” That it is also not always a wise idea to prematurely “assign judgment or blame.” That we are all vulnerable, from time to time, in our lives. That we can also all thrive and benefit sometimes from an angelic, caring, helping hand. Sometimes even a simple smile, or a kind word, can give someone infinite hope and faith and help someone to rise above the ashes.)

“He who sows courtesy reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.” St. Basil.

Eclipse New Moon in Capricorn January 4, 2011, Solar Eclipse

“You have to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else.” Albert Einstein

The Universe must have great confidence in our multi-tasking abilities. Unless, it’s deliberately being sadistic with us! What I am alluding to here is the fact that we have several potent aspects stacked up on our plates today to existentially grapple with. Of course, the real biggie is the New Moon Partial Solar Eclipse at 13 degrees 39 minutes of Capricorn, the first lunation of the new year. We have six eclipses on tap for this year: four partial solar and two total lunar. We haven’t had this many partial solar eclipses in one year since 1982, the same year that Michael Jackson released “Thriller,” the biggest selling album of all time. Also, that was the year that the Vietnam Memorial was formally dedicated in Washington D.C., occurring only a few days before MJ’s “Thriller” release in late November 1982.

Ironically, the original chairman of the Vietnam Memorial project, John Wheeler, was found murdered this past New Year’s eve.  His body was tragically found in a landfill in Delaware. Also, today, it’s kind of weird, but Dr. Conrad Murray begins to testify in a pre-trial hearing in a court in LA with respect to MJ’s death. Of course, neither of these events have anything to do with the eclipse today. Just two interesting parallels that I thought I’d point out, since I happened to stumble upon them by accident, when I was reviewing events in 1982 in Wikipedia for this blog today.

Solar and lunar eclipses are special new and full moons. They often usher in notable events, for both individuals and the collective. Eclipses often “speed things up.” They can suddenly open up new doors for us. Monthly new moons traditionally denote new opportunities, with the eclipse being somewhat the equivalent of a new moon on steroids. The impact of an eclipse can last up to six months. Too, sometimes the affects of an eclipse are not felt immediately.

The few days right before the eclipse are especially highly-charged, and it is on those days when we really want to think about, and formulate, our new moon intentions, and make time for serious prayer and meditation. Especially advisable for single women now: Profoundly meditating on the sacred image of George Clooney. This is largely because George also has his natal Moon in Capricorn, closely conjunct cautious Saturn. Just thought I’d throw that in here. So George doesn’t think we’re completely abandoning him, caught up in all the momentary hoopla of the red hot eclipse. 🙂 (Also, at this end of this blog, I have included a bit about a real-life dream that I just had about GC, if you’re interested in reading about it. It was really, more like a nightmare!)

Those who have planets or horoscope angles from 10 to 17 degrees of the cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn), will likely be most impacted by this eclipse. Also, all of us need to note the house in our birth charts where the eclipse is occurring, as the affairs of that house now are definitely being energized, and likely awaiting prompt, eager response from our delicate little brains.

Of course, whether any of this “opening door” stuff will also coincide with the miraculous arrival of the Publisher’s Clearing House sweepstakes crew to our front door, is highly doubtful. Although, we should never entirely give up hope here. I, for instance, just ordered 320 new magazines for the year in an earnest bid to effortlessly guide the PCH folks to the exact location of my house. I also have pictures of the late, great Ed McMahon, posted on my street mailbox, and in them he’s further pointing the way to my front door, as I have known about this eclipse for many months now and its’ possible ramifications for my life, if I take certain, drastic measures.

Capricorn is symbolized by the goat climbing up the mountain, with the mountain personifying success. Capricorn wants to be successful in whatever it does, so this eclipse new moon will likely have the net affect of firing up our ambitions. It’s the perfect time to really get going on our new year’s resolutions, be it to lose weight, or become chairman of the board. Win the PCH sweepstakes.

Arianna Huffington, in her “Sunday Roundup” at The Huffington Post on Sunday, mentioned that, this year, she was “deleting” some things from her resolution list, that she earlier thought she would do one day, but realizes now that she will never do. She is checking these resolutions off “as complete,” and crossing them off her list, so she can focus on “freeing up space for those projects” she is truly committed to. This is very reflective of the typical Capricornian-mindset, which is very utilitarian and realistic in its approach.

Also read in the Wall Street Journal that Oprah Winfrey doesn’t even make resolutions anymore. She was quoted in there as saying: “I don’t make them, because I live in the space that I’m in right now. I move with the flow, live in the moment.” I guess, that approach also has its useful (Capricorn) advantages to it, as with that philosophy, you are maximizing, or at least attempting to anyway, what the present has to offer, instead of focusing on a future that is not at all guaranteed. Although, Capricorn also tends to be very cautious, likes to always have a plan in place, and is generally not very impromptu.

A Capricorn eclipse most likely will not bring us rapid fire gains, but rather signifies success as a result of self-discipline, commitment, hard work, and being pragmatic. Capricorn is not comfortable getting dragged into any obscure, or pie-in-the-sky endeavors. It wants to know, from the get-go, what it is dealing with. This may be especially the case, this go-round, as the eclipse forms a tight square with Karma Lord Saturn, the ruler of Capricorn. Saturn perennially delights in holding our feet to the fire, making us accountable. Both Saturn, and Capricorn, are totally turned off by irresponsibility. It could be, too, that this eclipse coincides with a more difficult time for persons in positions of power or management. Especially for those who have been under-performing, as Capricorn rules authority figures, and the Sun denotes leadership.

With the “Saturn square,” too, we tend to be more critical (Saturn) of our leaders and higher-ups, much less willing to cut them any slack. Could be, too, this eclipse is a catalyst for changes in many corporate boardrooms around the world. Changes that could even trickle down to the local PTA hierarchy level. Maybe even into our own workplace offices. Of course, we also have the new U.S. Congress taking office, this week, with a Republican-controlled House, voted in on an apparent mandate to cut spending (synonymous with this Capricorn eclipse more “budget-minded” mentality).

Too, it appears that Capt. Owen Honors of the USS Enterprise is going to be officially relieved of his duties, perhaps as early as today, for airing lewd videos for his crew aboard the aircraft. While this airing actually occurred a few years ago, his activities were only really publicly brought to light on the eve of the eclipse. Fascinatingly, Jupiter and Uranus are exactly conjunct in Pisces now, the zodiacal sign which rules film-making. Jupiter-Uranus can bring about sudden revelations!

The Jupiter and Uranus exact conjunction in watering hole Pisces (7:50 am EST) is, in fact, a big player in today’s lunation chart. These two guys have become pretty good drinking buddies, as of late. They have been basically paired up with each other for the last six months or so. Mostly in caring, underdog, dreamy Pisces, a short time in adventurous Aries. They are both headed back to Aries this year. Jupiter and Uranus won’t be conjunct again, however, until 2024. So this aspect is big news.

Again, Jupiter-Uranus can bring sudden breakthroughs (esp. in science, technology, internet) that significantly change or alter the playing field, both individually and collectively. Mentally, we may also envision grander possibilities for ourselves, perhaps see things in a totally new light. This is because Jupiter tends to expand or grow our consciousness. It is the planet of opportunity and abundance. Innovator Uranus, denotes change, and sudden flashes of genius and intuition. Uranus additionally rules humanitarian causes, and equality issues. Pisces, too, is a very compassionate sign. President Obama, for instance, just signed a big bill on Monday to give 9/11 first responders health care benefits. Was there ever a group more deserving? I don’t think so. It is also very exciting that we have this upbeat conjunction in place with this more practical Capricorn eclipse, as it gives us a desire to dream big (Pisces rules dreams), yet at the same time we are aware that we must work hard to turn our dreams into reality.

Additionally with this Jupiter-Uranus conjunction in place, we recently saw the historic repeal of the DADT bill in the U.S., which prevented gays and lesbians from serving openly in the military, a big leap forward for our nation, in my opinion. Another example of Uranus coming to the plate for us for equality and civil rights issues. I also mentioned in the last eclipse report for late Dec., that this same conjunction in 1969 in the sign of Libra coincided with the first “Moon walk,” yet another leap for all of mankind.

Also, there was more news, yesterday, of a possibly big breakthrough in cancer screening, in which even just one cancer cell may be able to be detected in the body. Wouldn’t that be great? How many lives might be saved with early detection? My mother sadly died of cancer on January 3, 1996. I also lost my husband to cancer. Who among us had not lost somebody to cancer? I wager to say, none of us.

To discern this conjunction’s magical meaning in our own lives, we should look to see the house that it is falling in, in our personal charts, to see where we may be experiencing sudden breakthroughs, or be arriving at fresh new understandings. Maybe even where miracles may be occurring. And, of course, we may have been already experiencing some of these things for the last several months, as this is the final phase of this opportunity cycle. Also, those persons who have planets or angles in their horoscopes at 27 degrees of the mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces) are going to be impacted the most by this final pairing of these two planets. I have my Jupiter at 27 Gemini, so, I guess, I am among the “chosen few” here. Could be because of my annual contribution to PCH. Jupiter in Gemini loves to read.

Finally, love goddess Venus (ruling relationships and money), presently deposited in the latter degrees of passionate Scorpio, also figures prominently in today’s lunation chart. Venus is exactly square to Neptune and Chiron in Aquarius, and she is also in a magical, harmonious trine to the Jupiter and Uranus conjunction.

Venus-Neptune is all about glamorizing or idealizing romance, having fantasy or phantom lovers (GC?), romantic involvement with individuals who are often, in reality, not at all as they appear to be on the surface. We can also fall head over heels for people who are not free (could be married or otherwise committed), or they are maybe on a different wavelength than us. We can also be tempted to play the role of martyr under this influence. Neptune rules actors. artists, musicians, creative types in general, so I guess now, I am personally very vulnerable since I have a crush on both Clooney (actor) and Jagger (musician). 🙂

Venus-Neptune is a classic deceptive marker, so we need to be very careful that we are not lied to and played like a fiddle for a short time, and then sadly dumped by the curbside for Monday morning garbage pick-up. New romantic relationships that strike up now need to be given the test of time, to see if the other person can really, “walk their talk,” and chew spearmint gum at the same time! Few can. Also, we may want to run in-depth background checks on these new lovers. Definitely we need to be cautious about giving them any of our hard-earned cash. Additionally, we may want to lock up our valuable art work, especially our prized “paint-by-number pieces,” as this is a shifty influence associated with art thefts!

Simultaneously, Venus in Scorpio trine Jupiter and Uranus in spiritual Pisces could signify for us the formation of new, expansive relationships and friendships with more “highly-evolved” types, who are into helping humanity. Or, we may also be more attracted to scientific types (Uranus) or inventors. Too, there’s a chance that we could even become infatuated with computer geeks (Uranus). This trine could also possibly denote the arrival of a soul mate, since Scorpio does rule past lives, and Venus rules lovers.

With Venus-Uranus, we are more attracted to, and or more accepting of, persons who maybe are a little bit different from us, or who are maybe more unconventional in general. Entertainment-wise, we may also want to engage in activities that wildly or radically deviate from our usual routine. We also may be want to participate in group activities now, which Uranus rules.

Too, Venus-Jupiter characteristically is all about indulging in fun and pleasure.  It can be very romantic. Venus-Uranus often brings about sudden attractions. Instant love! But remember, we still need to get the new love interest fingerprinted and thoroughly checked out, just as a precaution, due to Venus-Neptune. Later on, if we see that there might be some real potential, we may also want to go ahead and carefully administer an upright vacuuming test. In addition to asking the person directly, how they really feel about passionately vacuuming alone in the dark, especially during an eclipse. Do they like it, or not? If no, why not? Again, with Venus-Neptune, we must probe. Probe, probe, probe. 🙂

“Lose your dreams and you might lose your mind” Mick Jagger.  Especially if I lose my dream about you, Mick!

Okay. Now to my dream about George Clooney: I did actually have a dream/nightmare about George on New Year’s day, during a short “solo” nap alone (: in the middle of the day. In the weird thing, I remember looking out of my front living room window in my house, and seeing George standing in my front yard, with another nondescript man of color, who I did not recognize. The other guy was kind of a big guy. Probably his bodyguard.

George was wearing a sexy black leather jacket and faded blue jeans. But, to the best of my recollection, he did not appear to have any whips or chains under his arms, or at least, any that I could see, and trust me, I was looking for them. Unfortunately, too, in the dream, George ended up walking AWAY from my house with that guy, without even venturing to ring my doorbell. Symbolically, I took this as a very bad omen. He should have been walking TOWARDS my house instead. Don’t you think?

My house also probably signifies my physical body. A real slap in the face that George can’t even bring himself to ringing my bell! Does anyone out there do dream interpretation? Know maybe what this dream about Clooney may mean, or portend for me? Could it mean that I’m suppose to move perhaps more in the direction of Mick Jagger, with my natal, dual-lover, Venus in Gemini placement? Seek Mick out for my spiritual and emotional rescue? 🙂

Lunar Eclipse December 21, 2010 Full Moon in Gemini Astrology

18 Saturday Dec 2010

“A mind once stretched by a new idea never regains its original dimension.” Oliver Wendell Holmes

Lordy, lordy! Look up in the sky! What is that coppery red, circular blob up there glowing in the heavens? Is it some kind of mysterious drunken bird with bloodshot eyes? Is it a space station from the planet Mars? Or did maybe Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer suffer some sort of painful nose detachment in a test run for the big event this weekend?

It could be that all of these lunatic interpretations are wrong, and what we are really looking at is the “Full Moon Total Lunar Eclipse” on December 21, 2010 (3:14 am EST) at 29 degrees of motor mouth Gemini, which is also occurring on the same day as the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year.  Something that hasn’t happened together for 456 years, according to NASA.

The winter solstice is symbolically viewed as a transforming rebirth of the life-giving Sun, going from dark to light (shorter to longer days). While the full moon brings things to “full illumination and fruition,” with eclipses tending to magnify the impact of the typical full moon energy.

The coupling of these two, awe-inspiring, celestial events could be spiritually transforming for us, too, if we choose this rare time for prayer and meditation, and for going within. We are symbolically moving from an “unenlightened state” to a “state of enlightenment.” The lights of our consciousness are being “turned back on,” we are becoming more empowered, and can theoretically now “more clearly see our path.” A powerful time to set our intentions for the new year.

On another, more mundane level, however, this big, regenerating sky event, will also likely ratchet up all of our light bills significantly at the end of the month, causing many of us to flip our switches! We know how nothing is free anymore. Too, look for the stars to twinkle less in the coming year, as control freak Pluto in tightwad Capricorn imposes strict new energy efficiency standards on their output. 🙂

There is even a possibility that we may have to launch Saint Julian Assange and all of his holy WikiLeaks crew into outer space to investigate further, this matter of the dimming celestial lights. Early rumor has it that Michael Moore is also willing to foot the bill for the trip, if he can later make a twilight zone documentary of the whole thing starring Hillary Clinton.

It could be, too, that this Lunar Eclipse is really a hoax that the White House is clandestinely staging to divert our attention. We live in such a wicked world nowadays, we can never take anything at face value anymore. Until recently, there was virtually zero transparency. That is, until WikiLeaks gallantly came along. But then again, we may also want to question the motivation behind that glittery empire. Things are not always as they appear.  So much is a sham. A masquerade. Would not be surprised if Assange is really an alien creature from another galaxy, checking the temperature and pulse of things on earth before spearheading a complete takeover of the planet in 2012 by hackers with no teeth.

Even the face of the Moon, seems to be sporting an escalating, and very suspicious looking case of acne now, with this Lunar Eclipse. Just look at those red pock marks on her.  They’re everywhere! Probably due, in large part, to a female hormonal imbalance, spawned by menopause. The curse of the female DNA!

But, then again, it could just be that the marks are fake, and actually an orchestrated disguise. A stealthily paid for advertisement to get us thinking about pimple cream and our complexions. What ever happened to the good ole’ days and simply making love by the silvery Moon in our ’57 Chevy? No pressure of multi-tasking. No subversive messages about zits impinging upon our tender brains. We only had a few knobs to reach for, a few buttons to push. Lassie the collie dog roamed, but always came home at night with angelic Timmy. June Lockhart was there to make dinner and read us a bedtime story, and to tuck us in.

In all due seriousness (but can we even be serious with a devilishly lighthearted Gemini Moon?), this rare lunar event may be when we want to take full ownership, a full accounting, of our myriad thoughts and ideas, which are symbolically ruled by dictionary-minded Gemini, the designator of our humble conscious awareness and the sign of communication and speech. Attempt to gain a “full moon awareness and illumination” of all of the stuff and information that we endlessly pile away in our plush little heads, while going about the course of our soulful daily lives. Especially since the Eclipse is taking place at 29 degrees of Gemini, the very last degree of the sign, when we could all very well be “at the end of our ropes,” with respect to suffering all the stressful symptoms from an “over-crammed head,” which can often make it much more difficult to swallow, or to even blink our eyes. We know we will be completely finished off when we can no longer move our lips – instant death for a chatty Gemini Moon! Perish the thought.

Some suggested things to ask ourselves now: Why do we choose to feed our heads the way that we do? Is the mental diet that we are adhering to, meeting our daily intellectual needs as set up by the government? Are we happy with the general landscape of our mind? Or do we live in fear and trepidation at the prospect of getting lost in our thoughts because they are plum too bewildering and creepy? Especially the one about Sarah Palin becoming President, with Bristol Palin as Vice-President.

Another immediate case in point: Reading this blog right now. It may very well be that we need to be more discriminating about what we give our attention to in the future. Do we we even know why we are choosing to read about astrology? What need are we trying to fill? Are we just needing to believe in fairy-tales? Or, are we on to something much bigger, that many still don’t know about?

Too, why am I spending my present time writing about the faraway Moon when I may be better off vacuuming? Or combing my hair. Or learning how to play the piano like Elton John. Why do we choose to talk or write about the things that we do? Are we even aware, most of the time, of what we are emitting through our speech and communication? Including awareness of the impact of the specific words we choose to use?  Would we maybe be better off communicating with fewer words, or using different words? Too, maybe we should all start whispering, especially those of us with high-pitched, shrill voices. Could be, too, that we should choose total silence, as our preferred state of being, instead of being incessantly steeped in chatter. Spend more time meditating and listening to the supposed wisdom of that still small voice within ourselves. How good a listener are we, anyway? Another weighty thing to ponder about now with the lunar eclipse here in the sign of communication: Our listening skills.

What is especially notable about this powerful eclipse today is that it is square to the Jupiter and Uranus conjunction in imaginative Pisces. Jupiter-Uranus can denote flashes of genius and extraordinary insight. It can also make us think way outside of the box. This is because rebel Uranus is an innovator, and often acts as a potent catalyst for change, particularly sudden changes that dramatically alter the playing field. Expander Jupiter generously helps to fuel the Uranian mission. Of course, Uranus also excels in spreading revolution, and or general mayhem.

Interestingly here, too, at the moment that I am writing this blog (Sat. Dec 18), with the politically-minded Sagittarius Sun exactly square to Uranus, as well as to the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction, the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” bill has just cleared its last procedural hurdle in the Senate, and is now reportedly slated to be voted on the floor of the full Senate on Monday, the eve of this Total Lunar Eclipse.  Uranus is associated with equality, and normally figures prominently into gay rights issues. It could be that the “changing our ideas” Gemini Eclipse Moon (or at least recalibrating our thinking) finally triggers the repeal of DADT. It certainly appears to be looking that way now.

Senator Joe Lieberman, the lead sponsor of the DADT repeal bill, originally presented the bill when Uranus was prominent in the sky. I earlier wrote a blog on this subject. Pisces, too, is the sign that is associated with the downtrodden, the disenfranchised, and minority groups.

Additionally Mental Mercury (ruler of Gemini) is retrograding back into conviction-minded Sagittarius and is again forming a square to Jupiter-Uranus. Extra progressive icing on the holiday Senatorial cake. Of course, not everyone is in agreement about repealing DADT. And, Uranus is also probably reveling in the cacophony of opinion and the clash of philosophical differences. In the end, though, Uranus, the liberator that he is, will probably rest on the side of civil rights.

Historically, this Jupiter-Uranus conjunction has correlated with rapid breakthroughs in science and technology as well (Uranus rules these two areas). Neil Armstrong and “Buzz Aldrin” even landed in the Sea of Tranquility and became the first humans to walk the Moon with this aspect. So, there is really no telling where we can rocket to now in our minds, if we choose to, with this spectacular convergence of celestial energies. In the end, it’s all a matter of how we fuel our thoughts. Do we sufficiently fill their tanks? Or do we neglect them, and let them run on empty? Also, we may need to consciously empty our minds now of thoughts and beliefs that we have outgrown, that are only serving to keep a stranglehold on our further understanding and awareness, and keeping us from spectacularly landing and walking on our own personal Moons.

“I want to know God’s thoughts; the rest are details.” Albert Einstein

News Update 12/18: With the Sun in zealous Sagittarius exactly square equality-ruling Uranus (and square expansive Jupiter), and sextile “let’s all peacefully co-exist” Neptune, in humanitarian Aquarius, the U.S.  Senate has historically gone ahead and voted today to repeal “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” by a vote of 65 to 31.

It appears that the square to sudden-acting, unpredictable Uranus really forced this issue today, something Uranus characteristically does. It forces changes, perhaps even more so now since it is aligned with the over-expander Jupiter, forcing the Senate to take “a giant leap” for the collective.

Too, we still have warrior Mars, ruling the military, in a separating conjunction with the Godfather of Transformation, Pluto, in governmental Capricorn. Mars and Pluto also rule sex, and issues of sexuality.

Also with Mars-Pluto, a new, powerful tax bill was successfully passed this past week, with Pluto additionally ruling taxes. With Pluto, we tend to pare down, and now it looks like with this new tax bill, there will be a big paring down of services that the U.S. government will be offering its citizenry. On the other hand, perhaps the reduction in taxes, will spur economic growth.  That is apparently the hope.

The Senate meanwhile, has now sent the DADT repeal bill to President Obama to sign. Obama  had campaigned on ending the DADT policy, which banned gays and lesbians from openly serving in the military. So we had a very historic day today, especially fascinating, too, from an astrological perspective.  Could be that this Total Lunar Eclipse and Winter Solstice also bring about more big Uranian changes for the collective, the energies of these two events already starting to crescendo.  The Senate is also suppose to continue with a discussion of START on Monday, another heavyweight issue that could impact the whole planet.

Jupiter Conjunct Uranus 11/22: Beatles Release Their “White Album”

This Date In History:

November 22, 1968

Beatles release Beatles also dubbed the White Album, the group’s only double album. It was called the White Album because it did not have any text or graphics on it, only the word “Beatles” on a plain white backdrop.

Many of the songs in the double album showcase experimentation with music from a hodgepodge of unexpected genres including 1930s dance hall music and chamber music. At the time, the usage of these diverse styles into one album was pretty unprecedented on the pop music scene. Most of the songs were reportedly inspired during transcendental meditation sessions with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in Rishikesh, India in the spring of 1968.

John Lennon’s female companion and artistic collaborator, Yoko Ono, was also present with him for the first time in the recording studio for the production of the album, something that would later become more and more commonplace.

Eric Clapton played lead guitar on George Harrison’s While My Guitar Gently Weeps. Other songs in the White Album: Dear Prudence, Back In The U.S.S.R., and Revolution 9. In 2003, the album was reportedly ranked number ten on Rolling Stones list of  “The 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time.”

When the White Album was released on Nov. 22nd, Expansive Jupiter in Artistic Libra was tightly conjunct Genius Uranus in the sky, with Uranus serving as a chief instigator of the Counterculture in the 60s. Mental Mercury was also conjunct Mystical Neptune, who was seriously meditating away with the Maharishi, too, in Probing Scorpio. Energizer Mars in Creative Libra was also exactly square to Libra’s ruler Venus in Business Capricorn, another indicator of artistic expression.

With Dream Big Jupiter conjoined Rebel Uranus, there is often a deep need to “experiment” and “change things up.”   Perhaps why we have the merging of the different musical genres on the double album. Uranus symbolizes the wacky scientist experimenting in the laboratory. Too, with Jupiter-Uranus,  Jupiter characteristically acts as a big cheerleader for the latter, goading him on in his constant quest for “new significant breakthroughs.”

The Illuminating Sun had also just entered Adventurous Sagittarius that day, just like today.  It was harmoniously sextile to both Jupiter and Uranus, acting as a “trigger” to that planetary duo’s more “non-traditional” or “oddball” brand of creativity.

We also have Jupiter conjunct Uranus again now, this time in Neptune-ruled Pisces, a creative sign also associated with musical and artistic achievement.   Just last week, with Jupiter getting ready to station direct in Pisces, Apple announced that its iTunes service would start selling Beatles music. Interestingly, too, when the White Album was being recorded, the Beatles were simultaneously debuting their new “Apple Corps,” a multimedia business enterprise. Seems what goes around, comes around.

COSMIC WEATHER:

The Domestic Moon remains in Divinity-Seeking Pisces. We are wanting to embark down those insightful roads that will lead us back to our soul’s “original home.”

With Mental Mercury in Peace-Keeping Libra quinqunx to Erratic Uranus, however, which is also positioned in Mystical Pisces, we may be a little unsure about which roads are really the “right roads to go down,” to ensure our soul’s sacred journey.

At the end of the day, The Balanced Libra Sun harmoniously trine to Spiritual Neptune in Futuristic Aquarius, beseeches us “not to worry.” The Sun-Neptune wisdom serenely purports to us that eventually “all paths lead to the same door,” and that all we need to remember is that “we are all one.”

Activities favored today: random acts of kindness, writing poetry, music, songs, prayer, meditation, theater, acting, experimenting with make-up, decorating, collecting seashells, befriending fishes, absconding with enlightened mermaids.

Quote For Today:

“By faithfulness we are collected and wound up into unity within ourselves, whereas we had been scattered abroad in multiplicity.” Saint Augustine

On This Date In History:

October 19, 1983: The U.S. Senate establishes Martin Luther King, Jr. federal holiday. Very notable here then was Pioneering Mars in Analytical Virgo in a tight square to Philosophical Jupiter in Highly Principled Sagittarius, the sign that Jupiter naturally rules.  Mars-Jupiter tends to “fire up” our idealism (Jupiter) and makes us want to go to war (Mars) for what we believe in (Jupiter). It is traditionally associated with political and social activism.

I also blogged the other day here how sometimes, too, Mars-Jupiter aspects are associated with “religious fanaticism,” as Jupiter also rules religion and Mars adds fuel and passion to that body of beliefs.  We always need to be careful with Mars-Jupiter that we don’t go overboard, as Jupiter tends to excessive behavior anyway, and on the shadow side, can additionally make us somewhat arrogant and cocksure that we alone hold the truth.

Additionally, Jupiter was separating from a conjunction to Equality-Ruling Uranus, which was also in the sign of Higher Beliefs Sagittarius. Uranus, ruling matters involving groups and the collective, characteristically delivers to us sudden insights and awareness, and in Sagittarius, these insights can help to shape our moral beliefs and behavior. Jupiter-Uranus tends to take us out of our normal belief set and allows us to feel more comfortable with or embrace non-traditional ideas, shatters some of Jupiter’s “moral superiority” notion.

We also presently have Jupiter and Uranus conjunct now in Idealistic Pisces, a sign that Jupiter co-rules with Neptune. Equality and humanitarian issues are emphasized with this conjunction and just last week, we had the federal judge striking down the Don’t Ask Don’t Tell policy, which had been in place in the military for almost two decades.

Another cool parallel to today was the Justice-Seeking Libra Sun then was exactly sextile to Compassionate Neptune which was also in Sagittarius. Today we have the Libra Sun trine Neptune in Brotherly Aquarius, a very similar aspect. Neptune is our link to the Divine and represents a state of consciousness in which “we are all one,” our personal borders and boundaries are dissolved.  Our compassion and humanity are stoked and we realize that we are all in this together. On Sun-Neptune days we become more preoccupied with our unity versus our differences. Therefore, we are more likely to espouse a a political philosophy of “inclusion,”  even on Capitol Hill.

COSMIC WEATHER:

We rise like the “Phoenix Capsule” today,

Perched on the Capable Wings of a Capricorn Moon.

Our indomitable will and spirit,

Dons brave form,

With Warrior Mars

Masterfully cloaked in Scorpio’s renewing armor.

Working in a coal mine in Chile,

A miraculous hope for the world,

Begins its daily shift.

Quote for the Day:

“When the world says, ‘Give up,’

Hope whispers, ‘Try it one more time.'” Source Unknown

Today’s affirmation:

“I intend to climb out of my hole. I have thirty-three lumps of “black coal hope,” tucked away in my cherished breast-pocket, cheering me on to my noble soul’s ascent.”

On This Date in History:

On October 14, 1964, Philips began experimenting with color TV. In the heavens, the transiting Moon was passing through Scientific Aquarius, the sign which rules television broadcasting. Activator Mars, in Entertainment Leo, was also exactly square to Photogenic Neptune in Transforming Scorpio.  Neptune rules photography and images.

“Mars-Neptune” is traditionally heralded in astrology as one of the most  imaginative and creative aspects of all. This is because Neptune rules the imagination and Mars acts as a catalyst to fire up whatever it is aligned with.  The nature of Mars is also pioneering, so with the help of the Experimental Aquarius Moon, there was this attempt to develop something new: “color TV images” (Neptune). Neptune is also often referred to as the planetary ray that makes us see things through “rose-colored glasses.” Another tie in here with color.

“It’s so beautifully arranged on the plate – you know someone’s fingers have been all over it.” Julia Child

COSMIC WEATHER:

The Emotional Moon continues in “The Way To A Man’s Heart Is Through His Stomach” Cancer, until 2:22 pm EDT, at which time it enters “Entertaining Leo,” when we may feel a little like “singing for our supper.” The Leo Moon loves to perform and craves the spotlight of the stage.

Sex Lord Mars and Love Goddess Venus are still serving up hot and spicy entrees in private in the bedroom in “Passionate Lovemaking” Scorpio.

Over-indulgent Jupiter in, “I’ll Have One More For The Road” Pisces, is quinqunx Willful Mars, and trying to bribe him with excess and BS. This is one aspect we do have to keep an eye on. With Mars-Jupiter paired together, we usually tend to “go overboard” in  our beliefs and often act out in wild, fanatical ways. Like maybe going on a hunger strike for 40 days and nights, whatever it takes, in hopes that George Clooney will give us a call.

Meanwhile, Mental Mercury, in Logical Virgo, opposes Clever Uranus, who is sitting next to Jupiter at the bar in “Watering Hole” Pisces. Uranus is goading Mercury to come up with some “original recipes” for burgers to give to the Cancer Moon for today’s tailgate parties.

To be sure, “Mercury opposite Uranus” is a quirky influence that can make our “thoughts erratic” and “speech impulsive.” Because of the rebellious nature of Uranus, we can also be more “intellectually defiant.” Nevertheless, this is an aspect equated with “genius and originality.”

So today is an ideal time to press for “inventive, new solutions” to old problems. Maybe even try a little “‘cherries and whipped cream” on the burger, for a taste that’s refreshingly different. Especially since we also have the creative “Mars-Venus” conjunction in Scorpio, a sign which likes to “re-configure the nature of things.”

“To see things in the seed, that is genius.” Lao Tzu

Below is a link to Julia Child’s “Pan-Fried Thin Burger” recipe, courtesy of Foodnetwork.com

http://tinyurl.com/2cnk72v

Personal Note: Below is a photo of my glorious, mangled front yard in the aftermath of this week’s “Sun conjunct Saturn” square to my natal Mars at 7 degrees of Capricorn.

I had a huge, beautiful, red oak tree suddenly fall during a storm, taking parts of three other trees along with it (two maples and a dogwood).  Saturn rules forms and established structures (the trees). Aggressor Mars signifies the ‘Warrior” principle (the missile-like attack on the tree).  With “Mars stressful to Saturn” we often literally, and or symbolically, see “old structures topple” in order to make way for new, positive growth elements in our lives. I was very lucky that no one was hurt and my house was not damaged, to which I’m very thankful. Too, I am really looking forward to having more sunlight in my yard, so there is a “silver lining” to all this.

Patricia’s Astrology Horoscope September 25, 2010: Spooky Romance

“Love is a fire.  But whether it is going to warm your heart or burn down your house, you can never tell.” Joan Crawford

COSMIC WEATHER:

The calendar may read “September 25,” but in reality things may seem a little more like “Halloween” with the Illuminating Sun in “Romantic” Libra square to that scary, “Dark Bogeyman” Pluto in “Skeletal” Capricorn.

Whenever Mysterious Pluto is in the picture, we tend to meet up with “an implosion” or two, experience a “toppling” of some of our expectations, sometimes out of nowhere. In other words:  The bag of candy we have innocently collected, going door to door, may contain a few tricks. So beware!

With Pluto in “Career” Capricorn, too, it could very well be that our “professional ambitions” may be where we see some “battle” or “reconfiguration” taking place today. Also, keep in mind: This is probably not the best day to deliberately provoke power struggles with higher-ups.  Or, force co-workers to follow our own “selfish agendas.” (Pluto often makes us tyrannical and non-cooperative, so we may need to correspondingly “temper our impulses” to preserve the peace.)

Additionally, with the Sun stationed in the “partnership sign” of Libra, romance could also get a little spooky. Especially when our partner takes off his or her mask, for the first time, and we see them as they really are. (OMG!!! “Honey, please do me a favor, and put your mask back on, right away!!!” I had no clue, all these years, about any of this!!! Who, what did I marry??? Is it still too late to pick what’s behind door number three instead?)

Pluto’s ray often does expose us “to the truth.” What was previously hidden, or submerged, is now brought out into the light of day.  On the plus side, Sun-Pluto days can be very “healing” and “transforming” because in wake of “discovering the truth,” or, in some cases, “baring our souls,” we often feel “freer.” More genuine. Sun-Pluto is synonymous with the “purge process.”

It may additionally be interesting to see the kinds of things going on in the collective today. Look particularly for notable, life-altering “dramatic revelations,” “coup d’etats,” “historic, transforming firsts.” Also, spy stuff could again figure promimently.

In lieu of this “purge-type” energy today, now is a good time to engage in various “de-cluttering” tasks. For instance, we may want to go through the clothes closets and pitch or donate to charity what we no longer need. Or, go through each room and rid ourselves of objects or pieces of furniture that may be “weighing down” a room’s rhythm or vibration. Maybe work in the yard doing some weeding, or aerating, readying the earth for “new growth” in the future. At its noblest expression, “Sun-Pluto”  symbolizes “rebirth” and “rising victoriously” from the ashes.

The Moon wraps up her stay in “Just Do It” Aries with some easy aspects to Creative Neptune (9:12 am EDT), “Expansive” Jupiter (12:02 pm EDT) and “Humanistic” Aquarius (12:15 pm EDT) before descending into “Practical, Slower-Moving” Taurus (4:17 pm EDT). The Taurus Moon will also form an insightful trine to Pluto at (9:49 pm EDT) accentuating today’s “awakening” vibration.

In the News:

The  Thanet Wind Farm, the world’s largest offshore (Piscean) wind farm, opened Friday off the southeast coast of Thanet district in Kent, England. Notable here, from an astrological perspective, is the tight “Jupiter and Uranus” conjunction in Sea-ruling Pisces. Uranus rules technological and scientific advancement (the wind farm) and Jupiter is associated with making things “larger.” The project will reportedly make a pivotal contribution to the Government’s renewable energy goals.

Patricia’s Astrology Horoscope September 18, 2010: Make A Change

“If you want to make the world a better place, take a look at yourself, then make a change.” Michael Jackson

COSMIC WEATHER:

A rare convergence of potent, transforming energies engulfs us now. “Visionary” Jupiter exactly conjoins Uranus, the planet of “Sudden Breakthrough Awareness.” This conjunction is occurring in Compassionate Pisces, the last sign of the zodiac, associated with Idealism and wanting to forge a “link with the Divine.”

(Interesting, too, with this more potentially “spiritually-illuminating” aspect, we have Pope Benedict in the UK now, attempting to perhaps “revitalize and inject new interest” (Uranus) in the Church’s teachings there. Fascinatingly, the Pope also has this very same “Jupiter-Uranus conjunction” falling exactly on his “Mental” Mercury in Pisces now, in his personal horoscope, so potentially, it’s a very “consciousness-raising” time for him, as well.  A period when he is much more inclined to gravitate towards accepting and implementing “new ideas, new approaches,” especially in matters pertaining to his faith (Pisces).  He may also be articulating his beliefs and views in far different ways than he has ever done in the past. Uranus often makes us “break with the past” and even take “radical stands” in wake of “an epiphany of new understanding.” That is how Uranus works.  It delivers “sudden” new insights. This “Jupiter-Uranus conjunction to his Mercury” is also occurring in the Pope’s first house of “new beginnings” having a direct impact on his personality and outlook on life.”)

Simultaneously, with this “enlightening” Jupiter-Uranus aspect, we have “Activator” Mars in “Regenerating, Healing” Scorpio throwing a Spellbinding Sextile to Scorpio’s Mysterious co-ruler, Pluto, which represents all that is “hidden from view.”  Mars is symbolically engaging Pluto to “show its hand.” Reveal the cards that its playing. That may also be the case with us now: We may want to “come clean,” so to speak. Spill our contents. Empty or purge ourselves of “emotional baggage” that we have been carrying around, for far too long, that has been weighing us down and making us immobile.  It’s a perfect time to compassionately “engage the person we see before us in the mirror” and ask him or her, “Are you ready to make a change? Are you ready to put down those bags and walk away and begin a new life?” Surrendering the past is never easy, but it’s also important to note that “letting go” is a “natural process that affords us the chance for “new experiences,” “new growth” in the future.

Also, the Moon’s entrance today into “Futuristic Aquarius” (3:35 am EDT) also serves as an ally here to help us “close the door on the past” and “open up a new door” to hopefully a happier, “freer” way of being because we have released what we no longer need. We now have more room for “new wine” in our vessels.

Personally, I am working in my “neglected” yard today. Raking up the dead (Scorpio) leaves. Picking up acorns. Getting the lawn ready to be “aerated” and “seeded with new life” tomorrow. A very “Mars-Pluto” transformational activity.

In the News: The mother of the late Michael Jackson, Katherine Jackson, reportedly sued AEG Live on Wednesday, the entertainment company that was behind the “comeback concert series” Michael was planning at the time of his death. According to reports, the lawsuit claims, among other things, that AEG Live “didn’t provide the proper medical care” for her son.

Mrs. Jackson filed the suit just as “Warrior” Mars entered the Intense, Probing sign of Scorpio, which governs death and estate matters. “Aggressor”  Mars was also forming a powerful conjunction to “Veiled” Neptune in Scorpio, in Michael’s personal horoscope. Additionally, Mars was sextiling Michael’s natal Pluto in Virgo, the sign that rules health. Mars-Pluto is a pivotal “investigative” aspect, also a major “healing influence,” which can shed “transformational light” on things. Mars-Pluto can also simply symbolize “new” or “intensified interest” (Mars) in matters pertaining “to death” (Pluto).

Too, with “Mars-Neptune,” there can be a “lifting of the veil,” a “piercing (Mars) through the illusion (Neptune),” “a levied attack (Mars) against confusion (Neptune).” And, of course, Mrs. Jackson, is also, no doubt, continuing to want resolution and healing for herself and her family from the destabilizing “Neptunian agony” of Michael’s death under “unclear circumstances.” The family has been through so much sorrow here. Also, she is certainly seeking “justice” for Michael, with her lawsuit. So we see the “Mars-Neptune” conjunction in Michael’s chart, this week, in death-ruling Scorpio, has served to aggressively (Mars) re-open the matter of the “strange situational elements” (Neptune) surrounding his death (Scorpio).  (Neptune also rules drugs.)

Michael died under the transiting “Jupiter and Neptune” conjunction in Aquarius, which, on the shadow side, can create an abundance (Jupiter) of confusion, illusion, and deception. This is because Jupiter “magnifies” everything it touches and conjoined with “subterfuge” Neptune, it can create situations that are hard to navigate or “see clearly through,” as Neptune ‘s ray “fogs everything up.”

Patricia’s Astrology Horoscope September 16, 2010: Veils Banned

“I beg of you…never assume an inner or an outer pose, never a disguise.” Gustav Mahler

COSMIC WEATHER:

The Moon continues in “Dutiful, Capable” Capricorn, supporting well the Sun and Mercury duo in “Laboring” Virgo. This is good energy for getting work-related. or business-related, tasks accomplished. Always with the Capricorn Moon, and the companion Virgo energy, we’re wanting to “upgrade” ourselves, better our skills, garner recognition from our peers for our “mighty achievements.”

Although, it must also be said that, now, with the “ultra-sexy” Venus-Mars conjunction, in “hot to trot” Scorpio, it is becoming more of a challenge for many of us to keep focused on our day-to-day work responsibilities and business obligations. Our thoughts and bodies want to be somewhere else, doing something else entirely. And we’re not just talking vacuuming here! Even though that can, of course, be a very pleasurable experience, too. Particularly with some of the new and improved “upright models” and all the window blinds closed, of course.

In The News:

The French Senate passed a law Tuesday banning the wearing of any veils that cover the face, the first European country to do so. The ban targets the burqa, which encompasses full-body covering including mesh over the face, and the niqab, which is a full-lace veil that allows for the eyes to be exposed.  The controversial legislation takes effect next spring.

In astrology, Neptune-ruled Pisces is the sign that is associated with “all manner of disguise.” Presently, Jupiter (ruling politicians) is conjunct “Rebel, Change-Agent” Uranus in Pisces. The conjunction here could be interpreted as “a revolt” against a “form of  disguise.”  Uranus characteristically breaks with tradition and culture.

“Control-Mogul” Pluto also stationed direct in Governmental Capricorn, on Tuesday, when the law banning veils was passed. Often with Pluto, what was previously “hidden,” is exposed. (What was hidden earlier by the veil is now exposed?)  Pluto, the transformer, also acts in such a way that “historic firsts” or “precedents” are often set.
