COSMIC WATCH:

“We must remember that one determined person can make a significant difference, and that a small group of determined people can change the course of history.” Sonia Johnson

Big, big day today! The Moon is in personally ambitious Capricorn the Goat. Mercury (thoughts) and Mars (action) are exactly conjunct in determined, materialistic Taurus the Bull. Both are also trining intense Pluto (transformation agent) in resourceful Capricorn. We are able to think and act decisively (Mercury-Mars), leveraging a laserlike mental focus (Mercury-Pluto) and unwavering resolve (Mars in Taurus) to miraculously move mountains (Mars-Pluto) and end up smack at the very top (Capricorn).

We also have x-ray vision (Mercury-Pluto) and can masterfully detect what was previously hidden to us, making this a potent day for problem-solving, or for figuring out previous, elusive mysteries. (On more of a collective level, it’s a good time for Pluto-ruled spying and espionage.)

This is definitely a day when we will want to stay fully engaged and not take our eyes off our targeted goals. We also have the chance to rally influential persons (Pluto) to our cause to back us or assist us, i.e. a fabulous time for “power networking.”

On another level, with mighty Pluto’s “purging ray” activated, now is an ideal period to eliminate or get rid of deadweight, or whatever is not working for us. Mysterious Pluto likes to travel with as little baggage as possible, and often in incognito. We are, therefore, well-served to do the same. Be perhaps a little “mum” to the world about all of our action plans until the last minute. Discuss our power-brokering strategies in private, “closed-door chambers.”

In The News: I have taken a quick peek at Maria Shriver‘s and Arnold Schwarzenegger‘s horoscopes. The Scorpio Full Moon on Tuesday fascinatingly fell exactly on Maria’s 7th house of marriage at 26 degrees Scorpio, putting a bright spotlight on both her marriage and the marriage partner. With “revealing” Pluto ruling Scorpio, too, we are often privy to finding out “secret” or “hidden” information.

Arnold, meanwhile, had the Full Moon in Scorpio falling exactly in his fifth house of children, near his expansive Jupiter, setting the stage for the world to learn that he had more (Jupiter) offspring than what was originally known about him publicly. It was also on the exact day of the Full Moon in Scorpio on Tuesday that Arnold finally “came clean” about his past and his secret love child. Scorpio also rules sex and intimate affairs.

Too, for the last few days, we have been hearing about the “high-profile” alleged sexual assault case involving Dominique Strauss-Kahn, former head of the International Monetary Fund, details of which first emerged just prior to the “revelatory” Scorpio Full Moon.

Astrology April 19, 2011: “The Mind on Steroids” Mercury Conjunct Mars in Aries

COSMIC WEATHER:

“Be master of mind rather than mastered by mind.” Zen Proverb

It could be that the more focused, intense, investigative Scorpio Moon acts as a desirable filter for us today in that it may help to anchor our emotional nature and responses, and have us wistfully probing and examining our innermost feelings instead of impulsively acting on them.

Perhaps a much needed antidote to the highly-charged Retrograde Mercury-Mars conjunction in fiery, athletic Aries which is also at play today and somewhat akin to our minds being on steroids! 🙂

Energizing Mars (ruling the aggressive urge) turns the volume up full blast on our ideas and thinking (Mercury), and in restless Aries it is very possible today that we could be feeling a little more jittery or high-strung mentally (also more prone to losing our temper).We may feel very compelled to act (Mars) on our ideas (Mercury) before really thinking through the consequences of our actions (that is why the “pondering” Scorpio Moon could assist us here). Also helpful to us may be the critical, authoritative Saturn opposition to this Mercury-Mars conjunction, which also serves as a parental check to dutifully remind us that, in our haste to express ourselves, we better not forget to “dot the i’s” and “cross the t’s.”

However, if we do diligently monitor ourselves, especially our verbal exchanges with others, and if we do act with a mature level of restraint (no temper tantrums), today could be a great day for finding favorable resolution to old problems (and even for amazing breakthroughs and transforming discoveries with the Scorpio Moon), as with Mercury retrograde, we often revisit the past.

Another upside here: We can also be very persuasive and passionate as a speaker, as Mercury-Mars injects much enthusiasm and forcefulness into our communications. The perceptive Scorpio Moon can also help us in devising brilliant, compelling strategy to market and brand ourselves and our ideas. It may be an excellent time, too, for immersion in highly-detailed writing (Mercury) projects (or for research) or for reading about psychology and human behavior. Again, this is because the investigative, therapy-minded Scorpio Moon always likes to “get to the bottom of things” and figure things out, and Mars (ruling law enforcement) often has a penchant for playing pioneering detective, as co-ruler of Scorpio with Pluto.

Patrice Astrology: Mercury, Mars, Neptune Triple Conjunction February 20, 2011

COSMIC WEATHER:

“I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.” Michelangelo

We have a potent triple conjunction of Mercury (thoughts), Mars (motivator), and Neptune (fantasy) in “innovative” Aquarius, which is also the sign that rules groups and group behavior. Creative types and original thinkers will likely thrive today, as Neptune rules the imagination, artistic or musical expression, and Mercury and Mars can help to fire these things up. Aquarius energy can also aid to kindle our originality and genius, and give us the courage and wherewithal to view our lives and options in exciting new ways.

Additionally, this triple grouping of the planets can be a very spiritual time when we feel more of a “link with the divine,” as Neptune rules our “urge for spirituality.” Meditation, prayer, engaging in random acts of kindness, or perhaps visiting those who are ill or infirm, or otherwise confined, would be some great ways of using this energy in its most sublime manner. Again, with this conjunction occurring in group-oriented Aquarius, aligning ourselves with groups or organizations that do good works for the collective, would be ideal. Too, lest we forget, Neptune’s mantra is: “Serve or suffer.”

On the shadow side with this influence, there is potentially more of a tendency for “misplaced aggression.”  This is because the aggressive urge, ruled by Mars, has a potential for being “disguised” with its alignment with “masquerading” or “deceptive” Neptune. Historically, Mars-Neptune has also been associated with martyrdom and persecution, and taking advantage of those who are weaker or do not often seem to have a voice in their own affairs, like the downtrodden or disenfranchised groups.

We would probably all be well-advised to pay closer attention to the particular impulses that are “driving” our behavior and decisions now, and steer clear of acting on any irrational or self-aggrandizing ideas that do not propel us upward, to a better place in our head. Neptune’s ray unchecked can arouse paranoia or strange fears from seemingly out of nowhere. Once we detach and calmly study the irrationality of these things, however, we can simply release them and let them go, without acting upon them. Or we can transmute them into higher, creative expression, that serves to elevate or free us.

“There is much in the world to make us afraid. There is much more in our faith to make us unafraid.” Frederick W. Cropp.

Patricia’s Astrology: Mercury Square Jupiter November 25, 2010

Communicator and Idea Guru Mercury, in “talk till you drop” Sagittarius, forms an exact square to “windbag” Jupiter in “Please, will everyone just shut up and meditate instead!” Pisces on November 25, 2010 (9:19 am EST). This can be a psychologically exasperating influence for us to have to deal with, especially if we have to be around people who are blabbermouths anyway. “Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah…”

Plus this influence is exact on Thanksgiving Day, a time when we are already traditionally holed up with long-winded relatives for hours on end with no chance for a fast escape.

Mercury in Sag wants to “seek and spread the truth” and aligned with Preacher Jupiter, the ruler of Sagittarius, in delusional Pisces, we tend to go way overboard in this mission, to the point of heavy-duty fanaticism and even evangelizing the goldfish. So we definitely want to make sure that we avoid a discussion of, really, any “hot-button” topics at the Thanksgiving dinner table, i.e. religion or politics, or who really should be the next Queen of England. We would probably especially be wise to steer clear from talking about Sarah Palin and the Tea Party, or the matter of Nancy Pelosi‘s hair. Or who really should have won this year’s “Dancing With the Stars.” Lest we run the risk of all manner of mayhem ensuing and pumpkin pies being tossed in our faces and turkey drumsticks turning into homestead defense missiles.

We are also still in the aftermath of Mercury’s conjunction with warrior Mars in self-righteous Sagittarius and we have already seen what has happened on the world front in North Korea with this scary influence. Mercury conjunct Mars: “Yes, I believe it’s time to start a war!  Let me just push a few buttons here. Boy this is fun!” Right.

Additionally, Mercury square grandiose Jupiter glosses over details, exaggerates, and over-promises in its predisposition to focus on the “big picture.” But, when all is said and done, at the end of the day, Mercury-Jupiter can also be “a lot of fun” and “refreshingly optimistic.” There is more of a tendency towards laughter, and maybe cracking a few funny jokes with this aspect. And, to just look at life, and appreciate it, from a more “humorous” perspective. Jupiter does rule our “sense of humor.” Jupiter is also a “great storyteller,” especially when linked up with “wordsmith”  Mercury.

“Humor is mankind’s greatest blessing.” Mark Twain

Cosmic Word Of The Day: Entrepreneur

(Sun trine Uranus. Moon enters Taurus. Mercury Conjunct Mars.)

Entrepreneur: 1) a person who organizes and manages any enterprise, especially a business, usually with considerable initiative and risk.

“With the ‘Emotional’ Moon’s entrance into ‘Money-Ruling’ Taurus (5:05 am EST) we become more acquisition and security-minded. But, we are not necessarily wanting to ‘play it safe’ today, as we also have the ‘Illuminating’ Sun in ‘Transforming’ Scorpio harmoniously trining ‘Innovator’ Uranus in ‘Imaginative’ Pisces.

Since Uranus fancies its freedom and favors employing ‘new approaches’ in business, the idea of becoming an entrepreneur may suddenly hold more appeal and lure for us today. Also, ‘Mental’ Mercury, governing our thoughts and communication, is conjunct ‘Pioneering’ Mars in ‘Reach For The Stars’ Sagittarius, another influence which could easily ‘fan the flames’ of our entrepreneurial spirit.”

“Innovation is the specific instrument of entrepreneurship.  The act that endows resources with a new capacity to create wealth.” Peter Drucker

“Mental” Mercury conjuncts “Energy Planet” Mars on November 20, 2010 (1:53 pm EDT) at 17 degrees of Sagittarius. In general, whenever Mercury and Mars are together, regardless of zodiacal sign, we have much more “mental energy” at our disposal. Our “thought processes” are revved up and our communications more intense.

In fiery, freedom-loving Sagittarius, Mercury’s communication style is enthusiastic, optimistic, and typically more “direct and blunt.” There can also be more of an “extremism” in viewpoints. Plus, a tendency towards “long-windedness”  and “exaggeration” due to the expansive nature of this sign which is ruled by the planet Jupiter which tends to “oversize” everything, making all matters “larger than life.” Philosophical Jupiter’s influence, too, makes Mercury focus more on the “bigger picture” versus “laborious details” which restless Mercury in Sag has no patience for.

With Aggressive, Self-Centered Mars also “firing up” Mercury here, we have a notable tendency to get “carried away” with our ideas and thinking, and more opinionated, argumentative, and defensive (Mars). If we tend to be “manic” by nature, we become “hyper-manic” (Mars) now. We also are ready to proselytize and convert “everyone and anyone” to our way of thinking. Mercury conjunct Mars in in Sagittarius is intensely zealous.

“I think people talk too much anyway. Sometimes people are talking to me and in my mind I’m just like ‘shut up, shut up, shut up…blah blah blah blah blaaaaah.” Ellen DeGeneres
