“The older I grow, the more I listen to people who don’t talk much.” Germain G. Glien
Cosmic Word Of The Day:Blab
(Moon in Gemini. Mercury retro in Sagittarius conjunct the Sun.)
Blab: 1) to talk or chatter indiscreetly or thoughtlessly 2) a person who blabs; blabbermouth
Cosmic Weather:
“Loose lips could do more than sink ships today. They could also drive us frickin’ crazy! Blab, blab, blab. Shut up!!! Go away!!!
Yes, it’s the monthly return of the “killer blabbermouth” Gemini Moon. What’s worse, communicator Mercury, Gemini’s ruler, has retrograded back into preachy Sagittarius and is exactly conjunct the powerhouse Sun.
We are crazy zealous about our beliefs now, and each of us has a long-winded sermon on the mount that we must dutifully deliver before dusk today, otherwise we’ll all turn into pumpkins. Also, don’t even think about getting us started on the subject of politics. Especially the hot topic of Sarah Palin‘s hair and whether or not she covertly travels with a hairdresser. (Do you think she does?)
All I want to know is: How in the heck are we ever going to be able to disengage ourselves long enough to finish our holiday shopping?
“Most conversations are simply monologues delivered in the presence of a witness.” Margaret Millar
Activities highlighted today: short trips, sales, writing, professional speaking, teaching, tennis, walking, involvements with siblings.

Fidgety: 1) restless; impatient; uneasy 2) nervously and excessively fussy
“We’re feeling the affects of the fidgety Gemini Moon today. It’s harder to sit still. Sort of like we have ants in our pants or something. Accentuating the restlessness is the Moon’s square to herky jerky, tempermental Uranus (2:24 PM EST) which can also make us feel more defiant and rebellious.
Later, the Moon shifts into Homebody Cancer (8:14 pm EST). Suddenly, the myriad stresses of the day all seem to take a backseat to “what’s cooking on the stove.”
From morning till night, sounds drift from the kitchen, most of them familiar and comforting…On days when warmth is the most important need of the human heart, the kitchen is the place you can find it; it dries the wet sock, it cools the hot little brain.”E. B. White

(Sun joins Mercury and Mars in Sagittarius. Moon is in Gemini.)
Soar: 1) to rise or aspire to a higher or more exalted level 2) to fly upward, as a bird
“With the Cheerful Sun’s entrance into ‘Faraway Places’ Sagittarius (5:15 am EST), we’re poised to take flight. We’ve earned our wings. It’s just a matter of time before we’ll be soaring above the clouds with the real-life, “chirp-happy” little birdies. Maybe we’ll even do some hobnobbing among the stars.
The one concern here, of course, is about wind-blown hair. It could become an issue. Maybe we better pack a scarf. Or else, likely face the traumatic prospect of suddenly flying into someone we know, and having them see us having a bad hair day. Perish the thought!” 🙂

Today, Realist Saturn is in a weird 135-degree alignment (sesquiquadrate) to Escapist Neptune. It may be more difficult to stay focused on our practical goals, as Neptune’s murky ray tends to generate confusion, even paranoia. We may want to make sure that we carry around with us an “exit strategy” today, as reality could get a “little spooky” at times. Too, we are coming up on Halloween. Today seems to be a “fitting precursor” to that macabre holiday.
The Moon also switches from Chatty Gemini to Haunted House Cancer (3:15 pm EDT). The Moon’s opposition, shortly thereafter, to Dark Spirit Pluto (9:12 pm EDT) could be when the “poltergeist activity” reaches a fever pitch on the home front. 🙂
Today’s quote for the day:
“Confusion is the welcome mat at the door of creativity.” Michael Gelb
On this date in history:
On October 27, 1985 thieves reportedly stole 9 paintings including 5 Monet‘s and 2 Renoir‘s. Aggressor Mars had just entered Artistic Libra and was in a tight square to Deceptive Neptune in Ambitious Capricorn. Neptune rules paintings, while the shadow side of Mars is associated with criminal behavior. Mars-Neptune is often synonymous with swindlers and con men. Neptune gives a penchant for “duplicity” and “conniving.”

COSMIC WEATHER:
Moon continues in Chatty Gemini. Love Goddess Venus and Lord of Desire Mars are conjoined in Passionate Scorpio. The Illuminating Sun is one day away from an exact conjunction with Serious Saturn in Relationship Libra. Maybe it’s time to say it in words? To tell him or her how you really feel. Before it’s maybe too late.

The Moon is in Talkative Gemini. The Love Duo of Venus and Mars are “getting it on” in Steamy Scorpio. The Illuminating Sun is inching closer to Karma Lord Saturn in Mating Libra. It may finally be time to have that talk about the “birds and the bees” that we’ve been putting off.

The Communicative Gemini Moon is taking hits today from the likes of Pluto, Mars, the Sun, Venus, and Mercury. We’re feeling restless. Talking too much. Gossiping. We’re also hanging up on Telephone Solicitor Mercury, in Cleanly Virgo, who is calling us every five minutes to sell us janitorial services.
People in the News:
Actor George Clooney was honored Sunday night at the Emmy Awards with the “Bob Hope Humanitarian Award.” The award paid specific homage to Clooney’s telethon efforts to raise funds after September 11, Hurricane Katrina, and the Haiti earthquake. Clooney is only the fourth person to be honored with this award.
Clooney, born 5/6/61, an earthy Taurus, with a caring Pisces Ascendant, and a professionally ambitious Capricorn Moon, had the “Love and Attraction” planet, Venus, exactly sextile to his electrifying Uranus, in entertainment Leo, when he was bestowed the prestigious honor. Venus is specifically associated with honors and awards, while Uranus actually governs humanitarian efforts and noble causes for the collective. The ‘sextile’ aspect is usually deemed a favorable influence and signifier of opportunity.
Additionally, Venus-Uranus, is a “mesmerizing romantic” influence that can make one “wildly popular.” Suffice it to say, with this aspect in effect, it is doubtful that George left the Emmy’s and went straight home afterwards to bake cookies by himself.
By the way, you may have noticed George with Elisabetta Canalis at the event, instead of me. In a matter of full disclosure: George did actually phone me several days ago, begging me to accompany him to the Emmy’s. Unfortunately, I had to decline his invitation. Too much vacuuming to do.
Congratulations, George! We’re happy for your being signaled out for this well-deserved recognition.
Personal Note: I will be away from this blog for a while. Going to take some time off. But, I will return!

“By and large, language is a tool for concealing the truth.” George Carlin
COSMIC WEATHER:
The Moon continues in moneybags Taurus, during the day, forming more challenging aspects to the lovebirds Venus and Mars in conjugal Libra and conniving Neptune in Aquarius. Later, the Moon will depart Taurus and enter Chatty Cathy Gemini (8:20 pm EDT). Once in Gemini, it will encounter a sanitizing Virgo Sun. The Virgo Sun is already putting the Gemini Moon on notice that anytime she utters a “dirty word,” the Sun will “wash its mouth out with soap.” Beware, Mel Gibson! 🙂
This Date in history: On August 31, 1987, Michael Jackson’s “Bad” video premieres on CBS-TV. Pioneering Mars in perfectionist Virgo was harmoniously trine imaginative Neptune in ambitious Capricorn. “Mars-Neptune” often epitomizes a peak in creativity.”

“Home is not where you live, but where they understand you.” Christian Morganstern
COSMIC WEATHER:
Moon leaves Communicative Gemini for Homebody Cancer (5:50 pm EDT) activating a rare, historic, Cardinal Grand Cross in the sky. Connection Queen, Venus, leaves Virginal Virgo for Romantic Libra (11:48 pm EDT), assuming a place at the Grand Cross table as well. Eccentric Uranus is eyeballing perfectly coiffed Venus from across the table and smiling at her with spinach in his teeth. Ugh!!!
“We’re home alone.
In bed.
Late at night.
Under the covers
In our polyester pj’s.
Almost dozed off and starting to peacefully dream about George Clooney.
When the frickin’ dog barks and woefully scares away poor George.
Rats!!!
We then hear a loud noise downstairs.
And voices, and music playing.
We suddenly remember that we left the window open in the study, the place where we keep all our valuables.
Then we also remember that it’s the night of the Cardinal Grand Square activation, with weird things most likely happening on the home front. This is partly because Venus has that perfunctory, annual, “opposition date” with Quirky Uranus.
Whenever Venus gets with Uranus, her behavior becomes terribly erratic and her inhibitions fly out the window.
We don’t even want to begin to know what those two could be up to downstairs.
Done that. Been there before. Although I personally can’t recall which decade.
So we put on ear plugs and try to fall back to sleep.
Praying that George Clooney will reappear with us, one more time, under the bed sheets.
To protect us from the harsh, cruel world, and the likes of the volatile Cardinal Square, now reaching a climactic pitch – at least downstairs!
The United States Senate Thursday confirmed the nomination of Elena Kagan as an associate justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. She will be sworn into office in a few days and, I believe, seated on the court in October.
Kagan (b. 4/28/60) is a pragmatic Taurus with a lighthearted, humorous Gemini Moon. She also has her Mental Mercury in independent thinking Aries trine her Uranus in Leo, giving her excellent originality in her thought processes, as well as drama, wit, and spontaneity. Her Mercury is also square to serious Saturn in cautious Capricorn, good for adding depth and concentration to her mental abilities.
Right now, Kagan has transforming Pluto sitting smack on her 3 degree Jupiter in governmental Capricorn, with Jupiter symbolically ruling judges. This will be Elena’s first experience as a judge, but something that her horoscope shows great potential aptitude for. Pluto is also exactly trining her natal Pluto at 3 degrees of employment Virgo, good for turning over a new leaf, career-wise.
Kagan’s confirmation to the Supreme Court comes just as Mars and Saturn, and later today, Venus, occupy the sign of matrimonial Libra which also rules justice and the courts. All three planets are caught in the crossfire of the Cardinal T-Square, a time of big changes for the collective, with many of those changes having long-term consequences. Also, on Wednesday, a federal judge overturned the same sex marriage ban in California. That matter may eventually end up in the Supreme Court with Elena Kagan one of the judges deciding whether gays should have a right to constitutionally marry in the U.S.
Kagan’s addition to the Supreme Court is precedent-setting as well as it marks the first time in history that three women have served on the Court at the same time. Kagan is also only the fourth woman ever to be nominated to the Supreme Court. Way to go, Elena! Congratulations!

Enjoy your Friday!
You may want to put steel plates in front of all the windows before you go to bed tonight, and sleep in combat fatigues in the bomb shelter in the basement. Just a precaution with the Cancer Moon in the volatile Cardinal Grand Square and Venus on that wild date with Uranus.
Also, don’t even think about getting fresh with George Clooney in your sleep tonight. If you do, you’ll regret it, and feel guilty as all get out when Uranus leaves Venus Saturday morning and Venus lands on Saturn’s judgmental lap on Saturday night.

“Being in therapy is great. I spend an hour just talking about myself. It’s kinda like being the guy on a date.” Caroline Rhea
“Cosmic Word of The Day”: Therapy
Definition: 1) the treatment of disease or disorders, as by some remedial, rehabilitating, or curative process
Origin: 1840-50; NL therapia
COSMIC WEATHER:
We’re still in the clutches of the Cardinal T-Cross involving the usual suspects.
At this point, I’m thinking therapy, professional therapy is needed to deal with the maze of heavyweight issues we’re grappling with. Including the colossal issue of the falling sky and the matter of the continuing clouds camping out in our backyards, that are impeding our heroic attempts to meticulously mow and edge our lawns.
I actually mowed the grass a little while ago, but it just about killed me to do it, and I’m still shaking like a leaf. I never realized how traumatic poor visibility can be when you’re trying to mow the lawn with a frickin’ cloud in your face, and the dogs are barking, and fur is flying all around.
With the Moon’s entrance into communicative Gemini today (12:54 pm EDT), I’m thinking that we may first want to start out with “Talk Therapy,” for a couple days, instead of anything more invasive. Then, if that fails us, we will probably have no choice but to embark on the more invasive treatments such as electric-shock or lobotomies. But let’s hope that it doesn’t come to those more drastic measures.
One other dire issue that needs to be dealt with today is the matter of Love Goddess Venus near the end of Virginal Virgo. She’s in a complicated quinqunx relationship with Deceptive, Trickster Neptune. This sort of relationship is always sick and doomed and ego-denying and can only result in Venus being seriously lied to, which could have the net affect of ultimately putting her virginity at risk. And we don’t want that to happen. Ever.
Too, because of the expected fallout from this Venus-Neptune aspect, all of us are severely at risk now in our personal love relationships for approximately the next 24 to 48 hours. We need to be very careful that we are not deceiving ourselves or being deceived by others. Even by George Clooney, which is a real shame. Breaks my heart, George.
“The trouble with women is that they get all excited about nothing…and then marry him!” Cher
News Update: Crap! Things are much, much worse than I originally thought and predicted yesterday regarding the sky falling and the corresponding gaping black holes. Have you heard the latest? Now, apparently, the Sun is also exploding in the sky, at a rapid rate, and will be falling to Earth today and tomorrow!!!
So, now, we not only have the blue sky and clouds descending in our backyards, but also big chunks of the red hot burning Sun!!! I can only imagine what the Sun will do to our lawns! It will be the final straw, I’m sure of it!!!
Now all grass, everywhere, frickin’ everywhere, will have that God-awful, tinged brown, burnout look to it!
From Wikipedia Current Events: “On August 1, 2010, scientists at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, using images from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory, observed a series of four large “Coronal Mass Ejections” emanating from the Earth-facing hemisphere. They were expected to strike the Earth’s electromagnetic field sometime between August 4 and early August 5.
All four were described as “large” and, according to scientists, possessed enough energy to cause aurorae to be observed by the naked eye in non-polar regions…Aside from the visual effects of the CME series,scientists also fear that electric impulses caused by disruptions in the magnetic field due to the ionized particles may damage infrastructures such as electrical grids and telephone lines not protected against induced magnetic current.
According to Leon Golub, an astronomer at CFA: ‘This eruption is directed right at us and is expected to get here early in the day on August 4th!!!It’s the first major Earth-directed eruption in some time. When such an expulsion reaches Earth, it interacts with the planet’s magnetic field and can create a geomagnetic storm. Solar particles stream down the field lines toward Earth’s poles. Those particles crash with atoms of nitrogren and oxygen in the atmosphere, which then glow like little neon signs. Sky watchers in the northern U.S. and other countries should look toward the north late Tuesday or early Wednesday for rippling ‘curtains’ of green and red light.”
Curtains, alright!!! It will probably be curtains for all of us today!!! What the government doesn’t tell us!!! Talking to us about buying electric cars. Heck: There won’t be any electricity left after today! The grids are all going to be destroyed!!! Frickin’ Cardinal T-Cross!!!

Happy Birthday, Mr. President! I’ll be discussing your horoscope soon, once we’re through this more radioactive phase of the T-Cross and my personal schedule calms down and allows me a chance to review your stars. Till then, sir, my advice to you is pretty much the same as it is for everyone else during these turbulent times: Continue with the deep breathing and the melodious chanting, ‘Yes we can, yes we can..’ until further notice.
