“There are times when I am so unlike myself that I might be taken for someone else of an entirely opposite character.” Jean-Jacques Rousseau
COSMIC WEATHER:
In wake of Monday’s New Moon in “experimental” Aquarius, today is an excellent time to kind of take a “test run” of things with the Aquarian Sun forming an exact sextile to Uranus, the modern-day ruler of Aquarius. This vibrant and quickening influence potentially poises us to be more flexible or open-minded in situations, as well as inspires us to embrace the changes that we know are needed in our lives in order to hopefully have them flow more effortlessly and authentically from our true center. Albert Einstein once quipped that the measure of intelligence “is the ability to change.”
With that said, it might be a great day to hang out with people or types we normally would not associate with to broaden our outlook, especially since we also have relationship Venus squaring Uranus today as well, an aspect which can coincide with a desire for more freedom or newness in our connections. Sun-Uranus also favors involvement in group activities or humanitarian causes.
Mercury trine Jupiter additionally helps us to look at the big picture, today. It may also be important for us now to discuss topics that are more meaningful to us, or that reflect our core beliefs and values. Mercury-Jupiter is also associated with public speaking and publishing.
The “utilitarian” and waning Capricorn Moon is also very busy, today, forming six aspects, all this morning, before going void of course at 10:54 am. It will enter Aquarius at 12:59 am, Sunday morning, and will no longer be void.

Intellectual Mercury’s shift into “cautious” Capricorn tends to make us more pragmatic and utilitarian with our thoughts and ideas, although today may not be the typical poster child for Mercury here in this earth sign as the Winged Messenger forms a trine to “big picture” Jupiter and also a square to “out of the box” Uranus. While we do, overall, want our mental musings to move us forward in a practical, linear manner now, we are also likely waxing very philosophical (Jupiter) today and able to incorporate or at least tolerate more radical or untested elements (Uranus) into our mindset. Accordingly, this is an excellent day to entertain opposing viewpoints, embrace new methods, and explore new options for ourselves. Too, this does not mean that we have to necessarily immediately act upon whatever is revealed to us today. It may really be more of a matter of stretching ourselves and growing cerebrally. Too, Mercury-Uranus tends to be an aspect that quickens or speeds up our mental processes. On the shadow side, it can make us a bit more mentally restless or unstable.
Additionally, the nurturing Cancer Moon is advocating that, along our journey today, we also remember to take time to lovingly administer some self-care to ourselves and also do what we can to fortify our base of operations and familial roots and ties. The emotional Cancer Moon will be reaching its “full phase” early tomorrow morning, meaning that there is more of a crescendoing of sensitivities now.

Today’s Affirmation: I am fluid and open to what the world has to offer me today. I also know that it is okay if I do not know all the answers. The more important thing may be to simply ask the questions, to perhaps challenge the status quo.
How could you stretch your perceptions today?
One more thing. Being a big Elvis fan, I would be remiss if I did not mention that “the king” would have been 77 years old today. Astrologically, Elvis, a Capricorn Sun native, had a fascinating horoscope with a grand cardinal cross which often is symbolic of someone who comes along and galvanizes the world in some notable way. Elvis also had the rebel planet, Uranus, exactly conjunct his fifth house of self-expression and talent. Uranus was also in pioneering Aries in his chart, just like it is today. Uranus governs the expression of genius and originality.

Miss you, Elvis. Enjoy your Sunday!

The Moon remains in enterprising Aries, although, its monthly opposition to resistant Saturn in relationship Libra (12:26 pm EDT) may mean that we have to do some yielding to others before we can pass “Go” and collect that expectant $200. 🙂
However, we may not be sidelined for too long, as we also have mental Mercury in industrious Virgo forming a harmonious trine to “Santa Claus” Jupiter in indulgent Taurus (9:44 pm EDT). Jupiter generously gifting us with big ideas so that we may grow and prosper. This optimistic aspect can also make us extra persuasive in speech and writing. It also favors learning, religion, legal matters, and publishing.
Romantic Venus also cascades into diplomatic Libra (10:40 pm EDT), one of the two signs that she rules. Now that she has a home-court advantage, hopefully, she will be able to help smooth out, or put to bed, any of our thorny, relationship issues. This is also a very artistic placement for “Lady Love,” favoring remodeling or beautifying projects. Sweet Venus transits Libra until October 9.

COSMIC WEATHER:
Extended forecast here.
A very big day on tap!
Powerful cosmic influences at play.
First off, we have Mental Mercury in Creative, Entertaining Leo exactly trining Expansive, Optimistic Jupiter in “Self-Discovery” Aries.This is a very favorable communication influence and a HUGE aspect for summoning forth and unleashing our personal talents and gifts. New doors could suddenly open up for us as a result of showcasing our unique abilities.
With Mercury-Jupiter, we are also better able to see the “big picture” (Jupiter), as well as agreeably solve situations that may have previously been at an impasse.
Also, our self-confidence soars as does our ability to speak convincingly with authority.
Historically, on a collective level, Mercury-Jupiter has often correlated with major advancements in communication and transportation. It’s also great for diplomatic efforts.
For example, CNN was launched with Mercury-Jupiter. The Charles DeGaulle Airport opened under this influence. Jupiter also rules the law and courts and with “Decision-Maker” Mercury conjunct “Protective” Jupiter the Supreme Court ruled in favor of Miranda Rights. Also, the Iranian hostages were released in 1981 the day Mercury was trine Jupiter.
Secondly, we have Pioneering, Energetic Mars in the Health and Work Sign of Virgo, harmoniously and exactly sextiling the Sun (Solar Eclipse). Sun-Mars is all about taking action, bold action. Sun-Mars days are always B-I-G for discoveries and blazing new trails. Generally a key time when we can really “leap forward,” both individually and collectively.
Mars, in the sign of Virgo, especially favors health research and medical breakthroughs, as well as any type of endeavor that involves intricate investigation and thorough attention to detail.
This Sun-Mars aspect has already been building for a few days. We also did hear, earlier this week, about positive movement towards an HIV vaccination. (The Jupiter-Uranus conjunction in discovery Aries square to Pluto, which rules research and sexually transmitted diseases, may have also figured in prominently here.)
The Sun-Mars energy will linger for a few more days. It is a potentially positive influence, too, for the delicate placement of the new cap on the BP oil pipe.
Too, if you’re looking for a job, now is a propitious time to do so, as Virgo does rule work and Sun-Mars rules fresh starts. Also, it’s a favorable time for implementing a new positive health regimen (Virgo).
Thirdly. We have the Major New Moon Solar Eclipse at 19 degrees of maternal, familial Cancer (at 3:41 pm EDT.) New Moonsarealways times for new beginnings and the Eclipse only magnifies the impact and magnitude of them.
With this Eclipse taking place in the home and family sign of Cancer, I believe we are feeling a strong need and desire to return to our past, our roots, specifically the womb, so as to better integrate the past with the present.
Of course, logisticallyI know thisdesire to revisit the womb could pose horrendous physical challenges, as most of us are now full-grown adults with weight issues. Plus many of us also have families of our own.
This whole regression matter could really get very complicated, the more I think about it. Especially in situations in which our moms have already transitioned to the other side.
However, despite everything, I have compiled an urgent, “top ten list” for the “powers that be,” of why we should be allowed to gain re-entry into the womb, ASAP:
10) Free room and board, even though the “view” is rather limited.
9) We can swim around all day in the nude.
8) No need for sunscreen.
7 ) Don’t have to worry about “wardrobe malfunctions.”
6) No need for expensive plastic surgery or liposuction.
5) Don’t have to pay taxes.
4) We can suck our thumbs whenever we want.
3) No housework – although I’ll personally miss the more creative aspects of vacuuming.
2) We can perfect our kickboxing technique.
And the number one reason we must gain re-entry into the womb immediately:
1) We figure it’s a pretty safe haven from Sarah Palin. At least for now.
“What’s the difference between a pit bull and a hockey mom? Lipstick.” Sarah Palin
Famous July 11th Cancerian Birthdays: David Henrie (21) “Octomom” Nadya Suleman (35). Boy, does she ever fit in here today! Hers may be the most celebrated womb in the world! But, I’m wondering, “How the heck are all her offspring going to fit back into it?”
Enjoy your Sunday!
I promise, I won’t tell Sarah Palin which womb you’re in, if she calls. (Love ya’, Sarah! Mama Grizzly!)
