“When we keep our silence we gather our power; when we speak we let loose the concentration of quiet reverie.” Bryant McGill

Today’s Energy:

Communicator Mercury is conjunct “focused” Saturn in “philosophical” Sagittarius (11:57 pm EST), an aspect that is normally regarded as excellent for our power of concentration as well as ideal for filling in the details of any long-range planning. Albert Einstein, a Pisces Sun, had this same aspect in his natal chart, but in pioneering Aries. In fact, it was the closest aspect, in his chart, with the conjunction occurring only one degree apart, suggesting that this planetary pairing would have a defining impact upon his thinking and general behavior. Mercury-Saturn is also thought to correlate with more of an aptitude for science, math, research, and critical thinking in general.

Because cautious, serious Saturn symbolically represents the principle of contraction, sometimes with this Mercury-Saturn energy we also tend to “trim the fat from our words” choosing to be as precise or succinct as possible in our speech or writing. Of course, with this conjunction occurring in “voluminous” Jupiter-ruled Sagittarius now, we may not be as parsimonious with our words as might be expected! At the very least, however, this may be a very good time to scale deeper with our thinking, to become keener observers of the world around us, or to hone or develop our listening skills.

Because Saturn also symbolizes our fears, worries, or concerns, Mercury-Saturn can also find us pondering “worst case scenarios.” Benjamin Disraeli once mused about this type of thinking this way: “I am prepared for the worst (Saturn), but hope for the best (Jupiter).” Additionally, on the shadow side, Mercury-Saturn can trigger more judgmental behavior, as well as an intolerance for views that are different from our own.

Enterprising Mars in “balancing” Libra is also sextiling Saturn today, an aspect that is linked with sustained effort, industriousness, and planning for tomorrow, sort of akin to a farmer diligently sowing seeds for future crops. Too, with Mars in “collaborative” Libra, it can indicate a positive period for formulating or arranging diplomatic or cooperative strategies.

The Moon in “stabilizing” Taurus also potentially supplies us with extra reserves of patience and perseverance today. French playwright Moliere noted that the trees that are slow to grow “bear the best fruit.”

Questions for Today: What topics are more difficult for you to talk about, and why? Where in your life do you maybe need to let go of judgments? What might you need to say “no” to now as a way of loving self-care?

Famous November 24 Birthdays: Zachary Taylor, Scott Joplin, Stephen Merchant, Ted Bundy, William F. Buckley Jr.

“I won’t insult your intelligence by suggesting that you really believe what you just said.” William F. Buckley Jr. 🙂

Enjoy your Tuesday!

Patricia’s Astrology February 6, 2011: “Karmic Rewards” Daily Horoscope

“The highest reward for a man’s toil is not what he gets for it but what he becomes by it.” John Ruskin

COSMIC WEATHER:

Hard work, persistence, and a willingness to apply ourselves may bring some “karmic rewards” our way today, as we have both the power-generating Sun and motivator Mars harmoniously trined to taskmaster Saturn, the planet traditionally billed as the “Lord of Karma.”

Saturn reigns supreme over our more serious accomplishments and endeavors in life. Saturn rules labor, goal-setting, and self-discipline. It denotes the structure and foundation in our lives. It’s the glue that holds everything together for us. It’s also the “guilt factor.” Today we can make excellent strides in stabilizing the things around us. Getting stuff “to stick.” Too, we may want to seek out the support of more “experienced” or “senior” persons, “our elders,” or “mentors,” all symbolically denoted by Saturn which also governs “practical wisdom” and “common sense.”

Additionally, with both the Sun and Mars trine Saturn in diplomatic Libra, it may be a very good time to “give peace a chance.” Also, it’s an excellent day for formulating succession plans. (Thought it was interesting, too, that on the eve of these Sun-Mars-Saturn aspects, the new U.S.-Russian “START treaty took effect. Mars rules weapons and defense issues. With Saturn, we are usually more willing to “restrain” or “curb” our “martian” aggressive impulses, although the Sun is still conjoined with fiery Mars, which is a potentially a more aggressive, volatile aspect.)

With that said, we also may need to: “Hold the fries. Forgo the extra helping of macaroni and cheese, or fried chicken. Refrain from having too much sex or alcohol” today (this could be painful for some of us, especially the fried chicken). The reason for this restrictive mandate is because we have “sweetheart” Venus exactly square to generous, “over-sizer” Jupiter. A major template for overindulgence in all things pleasurable, including love.

Famous Birthdays February 6th: Natalie Cole (61), Tom Brokaw (71), Zsa Zsa Gabor (94). We’re praying for you, Zsa Zsa.

“He taught me housekeeping; when I divorce, I keep the house.” Zsa Zsa Gabor

Patricia’s Astrology Horoscope October 14, 2010: Hope Clocks In

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.
