“The doors we open and close each day decide the lives we live.” Flora Whittemore
Some days the path before us is clear. Other days, it may appear to be a little fuzzy, so we try to watch our step accordingly. Today with the Moon in dreamy Pisces, we are perhaps more inclined to be guided by our ideals, and what is in our heart, rather than by what is purely practical or logical for us to do. Initiating Mars is also quinqunx to veiled Neptune, the ruler of Pisces, which can also inject more shades of gray into our day. “Although our intellect always longs for clarity and certainty, our nature often finds uncertainty fascinating.” Carl Von Clausewitz
What might your advice be to someone who is unsure about what to do?

A convergence of “roguish activity” above us today: Mental Mercury semisquares hotheaded Mars; Mars quinqunxes psychedelic Neptune; lovable Venus opposes wacky, erratic Uranus; and the empowering Sun sesquiquadrates extravagant, boastful Jupiter. Perhaps it’s a good thing that the maternal Moon is still luxuriating through silk pajama Taurus, as it may help to mellow us out, or at least benevolently shield us from some of these maverick forces now on the prowl.
While we are encouraged to seek out more fun and stimulation in our social lives today (Venus-Uranus), we may want to keep an eye on our intimate encounters and make sure that we are not “rocking the boat” too much by insisting on “doing our own thing,” regardless of the consequences. Venus-Uranus can have us craving emotional excitement and freedom at all cost. We can also suddenly get bored with our partners and or be attracted to persons who are very different from us, especially those who would be described as more non-conforming types or outright rebels.
Too, we may want to rein in our spending and not go overboard with impulsive purchases today, particularly buying outlandish items, as Venus also governs money and aligned with oddball Uranus, our tastes could be pretty whimsical and wild. The Sun-Jupiter aspect can also dubiously inspire intemperate or wasteful behavior. Additionally, the Mars-Neptune “escapist influence” is lurking in the shadows, ready, willing and able to magically transport us into “la la land,” along with spaced-out Alice and her slew of white, Haight Ashbury rabbits, if we’re not careful. Such a complex day! 🙂

Famous Birthday September 17th: Elvira, “Mistress of the Dark,” turns 60! Fascinatingly, in her birthchart, she has sexy Mars in theatrical Leo in her tenth house of career dramatically conjuncting mysterious Pluto. This influence, no doubt, gives her amazing ability to wistfully maneuver through cavernous realms. Both Mars and Pluto are also aligned with fantasy Neptune in Libra in her 12th house of hidden resources. Neptune rules photography and television.
Alluring Neptune is also near her beauty-loving Libra Ascendant (the Ascendant governs our physical appearance), helping to make her photogenic and very hypnotic. No wonder it is so easy to go under her spell! My late husband was crazy about Elvira. Always harbored a little bit of jealousy about it. 🙂 Of course, I’m over it now. Hope it’s a good one, Elvira!

“Always remember that the future comes one day at a time.” Dean Acheson
“Cosmic Word of The Day”: Progress
Definition:1) a movement toward a goal or to a further or higher stage
Origin: 1400-50
COSMIC WEATHER:
It’s the fifth and final go round between Status Quo Saturn, in the Partnership sign of Libra, and Change Agent Uranus, in New Beginnings Aries. Both are exactly in opposition to each other to the dot now. Today we need to take action on this opposition and here are our three options to choose from:
1) Stick with the tried and true (Saturn)
2) Choose change (Uranus)
3) Go with Spaghetti and Meatballs. Red Wine. Garlic Bread. And a date with George Clooney.
You decide. It’s your destiny.
One final thought. I don’t know why the Universe puts so many heavyweight aspects altogether on the same day for us to grapple with and then simultaneously throws us a weird curve ball to have to deal with via the goofy Mercury opposite Neptune influence, which is also exact today.
With Mercury-Neptune, and we also have Mars quinqunx Neptune, for that matter, we are spaced out big time and in La la land. And yet, we are suppose to render major decisions about our destiny via the T-Cross, Mystic Rectangle, and whether to purchase a new upright vacuum or select a canister-style model instead. Is that progress? Go figure.
Switching gears: “Mick Jagger” is celebrating his 67th birthday today. Mick is a Leo with a Taurus Moon. I am a Taurus with a Leo Moon. His Ascendant is 13 degrees Gemini. My Venus (ruling love) is 13 Gemini. All of my life, I have been madly in love with Mick Jagger. In fact, if I had to choose between George Clooney and Mick Jagger, I know it would probably kill me, but I would have to choose Mick over George. Although having my Venus in Gemini, a dual sign, I should technically be able to juggle both of these guys without any problem.
Anyway, I hope I transition to the other side before Mick Jagger does, as I don’t believe I would want to continue living my life without Mick also aboard the planet. Even with George still around. I would just miss Mick Jagger too much.
“I’d rather be dead than singing ‘Satisfaction’ when I’m forty-five.” Mick Jagger.
I imagine Mick has progressed beyond that viewpoint over the years. You do what you have to do to pay the light bill.
Speaking of progressing, your humble astrologer will be taking some well-deserved time off from this daily platform to vacation in my back yard. I’m sure I’ll be checking in periodically with you. As some of you know, I am writing my first book on astrology and I really need to finish it. Will miss all of you!
Quick News Update: “Intelligence Leak” of 92,000 pages of documents about the Afghan War occurs w/ Expansive Jupiter, the planet which rules journalism and publishing, in an exact square aspect to Intelligence Gatherer Pluto! Squares force action and in this case, the square produced the leak.
When we have Pluto activated in the heavens, we often find out “big secrets.” This is especially the case with the “over-sizing” Jupiter involved in the equation. Jupiter is also in the sign of Aries which rules war and the military. Pluto correlates with spying, intelligence-gathering, and covert operations.
Wikileaks, the document-leaking organization, revealed the confidential files on Sunday.

“Individually we are one drop. Together we are an ocean.” Ryunosuke Satoro
“Cosmic Word of The Day”: Link
Definition: 1) one of therings or separate pieces of which a chain is composed 2) anything serving to connect one part or thing with another
Origin: 1375-1425;
COSMIC WEATHER:
The Full Moon in Brotherly Love Aquarius (9:37 pm EDT) makes us aware of “self versus others” and also shows us how we are all linked together. A good time to focus on how we fit in and interact within the context of group settings. Are we happy with the group activities and associations we’re involved with or is it maybe time to cut some ties here? Also, we may want to reflect on how we can unselfishly serve others for the greater good.
Additionally, with the Full Moon occurring in Futuristic Aquarius we have a greater capacity and inclination now to “think outside the box.” We should be challenging ourselves to look at old problems in new ways for the next couple weeks. We are also more prone to having sudden breakthroughs.
Expansive Jupiter continues to square Intense Pluto, helping to obsessively and passionately fuel our personal ambitions, however, we may want to take a breather here for a couple days and lay low. This is because Nebulous Neptune is making very challenging aspects to both Mental Mercury and Initiator Mars, making navigation trickier and riskier.
Always with Neptune activated, there’s a strong possibility that we are not really being shown the full picture or pivotal information that we need to make wise decisions, is missing. Mercury’s entrance into logical-thinking Virgo on Tuesday helps to get us back on track here.
“Sometimes I’m confused by what I think is really obvious. But what I think is really obvious obviously isn’t obvious.” Michael Stipe.
Okay, Michael! It sounds likeyou have been drinking the Neptunian Kool-aid.
This Date in History:On July 25, 1960 – The Woolworth Company’s lunch counter in Greensboro, NC, that was the location of a sit-in that sparked demonstrations by African-Americans across the southern United States, serves its first meal to a black customer.
That day, transiting Mars, which heralds new beginnings, was in Taurus, the sign showing what we value. Mars was exactly quinqunx (adjustment aspect) to Expansive Jupiter in Sagittarius, ruling philosophy and our moral outlook. Mars-Jupiter aspects often coincidewith our needing to take bold, courageous stands on our beliefs.
