Cosmic Weather:
“Open mouth, insert foot! That appears to be a likely scenario for today, due to the Moon’s lively stroll through Chatty Cathy Sagittarius, and also the Moon’s conjunction with fast talker Mercury (9:03 am EST). Sag is famous for speaking before thinking. Knowing this ahead of time, it may be wise for Sarah Palin to steer clear of Katie Couric today. Also, Vice President Joe Biden may want to pray for a sudden case of laryngitis.
Too, we may even want to go so far as tying up our tongues with rubber bands or something, when the Moon squares both bigmouth Jupiter (8:50 pm EST) and cranky Uranus (9:09 pm EST). A cautionary gesture in a bid to preserve the peace with loved ones. Additionally at this time, it would probably be very unwise to tell your significant other that they look fat in a dress. Or, that they really need to do something about their unsightly beer gut, as there could be major repercussions.” 🙂

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?

“A mind once stretched by a new idea never regains its original dimension.” Oliver Wendell Holmes
Lordy, lordy! Look up in the sky! What is that coppery red, circular blob up there glowing in the heavens? Is it some kind of mysterious drunken bird with bloodshot eyes? Is it a space station from the planet Mars? Or did maybe Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer suffer some sort of painful nose detachment in a test run for the big event this weekend?
It could be that all of these lunatic interpretations are wrong, and what we are really looking at is the “Full Moon Total Lunar Eclipse” on December 21, 2010 (3:14 am EST) at 29 degrees of motor mouth Gemini, which is also occurring on the same day as the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year. Something that hasn’t happened together for 456 years, according to NASA.
The winter solstice is symbolically viewed as a transforming rebirth of the life-giving Sun, going from dark to light (shorter to longer days). While the full moon brings things to “full illumination and fruition,” with eclipses tending to magnify the impact of the typical full moon energy.
The coupling of these two, awe-inspiring, celestial events could be spiritually transforming for us, too, if we choose this rare time for prayer and meditation, and for going within. We are symbolically moving from an “unenlightened state” to a “state of enlightenment.” The lights of our consciousness are being “turned back on,” we are becoming more empowered, and can theoretically now “more clearly see our path.” A powerful time to set our intentions for the new year.
On another, more mundane level, however, this big, regenerating sky event, will also likely ratchet up all of our light bills significantly at the end of the month, causing many of us to flip our switches! We know how nothing is free anymore. Too, look for the stars to twinkle less in the coming year, as control freak Pluto in tightwad Capricorn imposes strict new energy efficiency standards on their output. 🙂
There is even a possibility that we may have to launch Saint Julian Assange and all of his holy WikiLeaks crew into outer space to investigate further, this matter of the dimming celestial lights. Early rumor has it that Michael Moore is also willing to foot the bill for the trip, if he can later make a twilight zone documentary of the whole thing starring Hillary Clinton.
It could be, too, that this Lunar Eclipse is really a hoax that the White House is clandestinely staging to divert our attention. We live in such a wicked world nowadays, we can never take anything at face value anymore. Until recently, there was virtually zero transparency. That is, until WikiLeaks gallantly came along. But then again, we may also want to question the motivation behind that glittery empire. Things are not always as they appear. So much is a sham. A masquerade. Would not be surprised if Assange is really an alien creature from another galaxy, checking the temperature and pulse of things on earth before spearheading a complete takeover of the planet in 2012 by hackers with no teeth.
Even the face of the Moon, seems to be sporting an escalating, and very suspicious looking case of acne now, with this Lunar Eclipse. Just look at those red pock marks on her. They’re everywhere! Probably due, in large part, to a female hormonal imbalance, spawned by menopause. The curse of the female DNA!
But, then again, it could just be that the marks are fake, and actually an orchestrated disguise. A stealthily paid for advertisement to get us thinking about pimple cream and our complexions. What ever happened to the good ole’ days and simply making love by the silvery Moon in our ’57 Chevy? No pressure of multi-tasking. No subversive messages about zits impinging upon our tender brains. We only had a few knobs to reach for, a few buttons to push. Lassie the collie dog roamed, but always came home at night with angelic Timmy. June Lockhart was there to make dinner and read us a bedtime story, and to tuck us in.
In all due seriousness (but can we even be serious with a devilishly lighthearted Gemini Moon?), this rare lunar event may be when we want to take full ownership, a full accounting, of our myriad thoughts and ideas, which are symbolically ruled by dictionary-minded Gemini, the designator of our humble conscious awareness and the sign of communication and speech. Attempt to gain a “full moon awareness and illumination” of all of the stuff and information that we endlessly pile away in our plush little heads, while going about the course of our soulful daily lives. Especially since the Eclipse is taking place at 29 degrees of Gemini, the very last degree of the sign, when we could all very well be “at the end of our ropes,” with respect to suffering all the stressful symptoms from an “over-crammed head,” which can often make it much more difficult to swallow, or to even blink our eyes. We know we will be completely finished off when we can no longer move our lips – instant death for a chatty Gemini Moon! Perish the thought.
Some suggested things to ask ourselves now: Why do we choose to feed our heads the way that we do? Is the mental diet that we are adhering to, meeting our daily intellectual needs as set up by the government? Are we happy with the general landscape of our mind? Or do we live in fear and trepidation at the prospect of getting lost in our thoughts because they are plum too bewildering and creepy? Especially the one about Sarah Palin becoming President, with Bristol Palin as Vice-President.
Another immediate case in point: Reading this blog right now. It may very well be that we need to be more discriminating about what we give our attention to in the future. Do we we even know why we are choosing to read about astrology? What need are we trying to fill? Are we just needing to believe in fairy-tales? Or, are we on to something much bigger, that many still don’t know about?
Too, why am I spending my present time writing about the faraway Moon when I may be better off vacuuming? Or combing my hair. Or learning how to play the piano like Elton John. Why do we choose to talk or write about the things that we do? Are we even aware, most of the time, of what we are emitting through our speech and communication? Including awareness of the impact of the specific words we choose to use? Would we maybe be better off communicating with fewer words, or using different words? Too, maybe we should all start whispering, especially those of us with high-pitched, shrill voices. Could be, too, that we should choose total silence, as our preferred state of being, instead of being incessantly steeped in chatter. Spend more time meditating and listening to the supposed wisdom of that still small voice within ourselves. How good a listener are we, anyway? Another weighty thing to ponder about now with the lunar eclipse here in the sign of communication: Our listening skills.
What is especially notable about this powerful eclipse today is that it is square to the Jupiter and Uranus conjunction in imaginative Pisces. Jupiter-Uranus can denote flashes of genius and extraordinary insight. It can also make us think way outside of the box. This is because rebel Uranus is an innovator, and often acts as a potent catalyst for change, particularly sudden changes that dramatically alter the playing field. Expander Jupiter generously helps to fuel the Uranian mission. Of course, Uranus also excels in spreading revolution, and or general mayhem.
Interestingly here, too, at the moment that I am writing this blog (Sat. Dec 18), with the politically-minded Sagittarius Sun exactly square to Uranus, as well as to the Jupiter-Uranus conjunction, the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” bill has just cleared its last procedural hurdle in the Senate, and is now reportedly slated to be voted on the floor of the full Senate on Monday, the eve of this Total Lunar Eclipse. Uranus is associated with equality, and normally figures prominently into gay rights issues. It could be that the “changing our ideas” Gemini Eclipse Moon (or at least recalibrating our thinking) finally triggers the repeal of DADT. It certainly appears to be looking that way now.
Senator Joe Lieberman, the lead sponsor of the DADT repeal bill, originally presented the bill when Uranus was prominent in the sky. I earlier wrote a blog on this subject. Pisces, too, is the sign that is associated with the downtrodden, the disenfranchised, and minority groups.
Additionally Mental Mercury (ruler of Gemini) is retrograding back into conviction-minded Sagittarius and is again forming a square to Jupiter-Uranus. Extra progressive icing on the holiday Senatorial cake. Of course, not everyone is in agreement about repealing DADT. And, Uranus is also probably reveling in the cacophony of opinion and the clash of philosophical differences. In the end, though, Uranus, the liberator that he is, will probably rest on the side of civil rights.
Historically, this Jupiter-Uranus conjunction has correlated with rapid breakthroughs in science and technology as well (Uranus rules these two areas). Neil Armstrong and “Buzz Aldrin” even landed in the Sea of Tranquility and became the first humans to walk the Moon with this aspect. So, there is really no telling where we can rocket to now in our minds, if we choose to, with this spectacular convergence of celestial energies. In the end, it’s all a matter of how we fuel our thoughts. Do we sufficiently fill their tanks? Or do we neglect them, and let them run on empty? Also, we may need to consciously empty our minds now of thoughts and beliefs that we have outgrown, that are only serving to keep a stranglehold on our further understanding and awareness, and keeping us from spectacularly landing and walking on our own personal Moons.
“I want to know God’s thoughts; the rest are details.” Albert Einstein
News Update 12/18: With the Sun in zealous Sagittarius exactly square equality-ruling Uranus (and square expansive Jupiter), and sextile “let’s all peacefully co-exist” Neptune, in humanitarian Aquarius, the U.S. Senate has historically gone ahead and voted today to repeal “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” by a vote of 65 to 31.
It appears that the square to sudden-acting, unpredictable Uranus really forced this issue today, something Uranus characteristically does. It forces changes, perhaps even more so now since it is aligned with the over-expander Jupiter, forcing the Senate to take “a giant leap” for the collective.
Too, we still have warrior Mars, ruling the military, in a separating conjunction with the Godfather of Transformation, Pluto, in governmental Capricorn. Mars and Pluto also rule sex, and issues of sexuality.
Also with Mars-Pluto, a new, powerful tax bill was successfully passed this past week, with Pluto additionally ruling taxes. With Pluto, we tend to pare down, and now it looks like with this new tax bill, there will be a big paring down of services that the U.S. government will be offering its citizenry. On the other hand, perhaps the reduction in taxes, will spur economic growth. That is apparently the hope.
The Senate meanwhile, has now sent the DADT repeal bill to President Obama to sign. Obama had campaigned on ending the DADT policy, which banned gays and lesbians from openly serving in the military. So we had a very historic day today, especially fascinating, too, from an astrological perspective. Could be that this Total Lunar Eclipse and Winter Solstice also bring about more big Uranian changes for the collective, the energies of these two events already starting to crescendo. The Senate is also suppose to continue with a discussion of START on Monday, another heavyweight issue that could impact the whole planet.

Undercover: 1) working or done out of public sight; secret 2) engaged in spying or securing confidential information
“Beware of strangers in trench coats looking through binoculars today. And we’re not just talking about undercover aides to Hillary Clinton here. Mental Mercury, ruling news and communication, is conjoined both ‘master spy agent’ Pluto and the North Node in bureaucratic Capricorn (8:15 pm EST). No telling what kind of covert plots may be unearthed. Of course, we have already had quite a few revelations, the past few days, with Pluto conjunct the North Node and Adventurous Mars in truth-seeking Sagittarius square Jupiter and Uranus. Could be, too, that WikiLeaks finds out and releases Bill Clinton‘s shoe size or Sarah Palin‘s dental records.
With Mercury-Pluto we are more privy to finding out juicy secrets and there can be breakthrough “Clousteau-type” investigations. It is a great aspect for research. We often hear about “historic firsts” with this influence. Pluto also rules taxes and debt, and a discussion of those issues are now front and center today on Capitol Hill.
Liberating, Tech-Ruling Uranus also goes direct in Mystical, Creative Pisces (8:51 pm EST) where it will stay until March 2011. With Uranus in forward motion again, it could be that we are able to progress further along our spiritual paths, the next few months, and that our personal creativity also gets boosted.
Historically, on a collective level, the last time Uranus turned direct in Pisces before entering Aries for 7 years, which was back in December of 1927, the co-founder of Intel, Robert Norce, was born. Norce is credited with the invention of the integrated circuit or microchip, along with Jack Kilby. Definitely an invention that moved the world forward in an accelerated way. Uranus is synonymous with radical change.
Additionally, we have a New Moon in ‘yes we can’ Sagittarius (12:37 pm EST). We have ‘vision’ now, but, for some reason, we still can’t come up with the winning lotto numbers. Why is that? 🙂

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.

“My favorite thing in the world is a box of fine European chocolates which is, for sure, better than sex.” Alicia Silverstone
Moon vacates restless Aries for the stabilizing, calming pastures of Taurus (10:36 am EDT). The Taurus Moon forms a magical grand earth trine with transforming Pluto in ambitious Capricorn and the illuminating Sun in hard-working Virgo.
“The Universe is meting out to us some ‘cosmic rewards’ today for our recent, diligent efforts. The systematic Virgo Sun is also wanting us to select our rewards from the following three areas: 1) sex 2) chocolate 3) or what’s behind door number three.
We also have it from a very reliable source, that behind door number three, is either a 72-hour date with George Clooney or a 72-hour Alaskan fishing expedition with Sarah Palin. Unfortunately, if we select this third option, we will not know until after our selection is made whether we will be spending time with Clooney or Palin.
Also, if we go with the “sex” option, there is no additional information regarding who it is we will be having sex with, male or female. For that matter, it could theoretically involve having sex with even an inanimate object. Or, maybe with an alien creature from outer space, such as Mel Gibson.
Our safest bet, it appears, is to go with option number two. The chocolate. The sure thing.
For we all know that chocolate never lies to us. It also doesn’t swear, threaten, or womanize. It’s not afraid of commitment, or fulfilling its obligations. There’s nothing fishy about it. Plus, it’s not obnoxious when poured on thick. And, best of all, it always gives the best kisses!”
In the News:
The story of those thirty-three miners found alive but trapped, three weeks after a mine collapse near Copiapo, Chile, came to worldwide attention with Restrictive Saturn still in a tight square to Intense Pluto.
Pluto rules mines and miners, and also governs “extreme” conditions. Saturn rules limiting, confining situations and hardships. Saturn square Pluto is often synonymous with a “severe test of faith” and circumstances seemingly “at their bleakest.”
The heartbreaking story of these miners shows us all how trying and desperate life can be at times. But, regardless of the situation, we must never give up hope. Our prayers are with these men and their families. And for a speedy resolution to this matter.

“Black holes are where God divided by zero.” Stephen Wright
“Cosmic Word of The Day”: Black
Definition: 1) characterized by absence of light; enveloped in darkness 2) soiled or stained with dirt 3) marked by disaster or misfortune 4) indicating censure, disgrace, or liability to punishment
Origin: before 900; ME blak
COSMIC WEATHER:
Tempers flaring big time above us now. I’m just wondering how the heck Mel Gibson got up there?
Huge chunks of sky are also dropping into our yards, landing on our begonias.
Whereas before we only had grass to mow, now we have both grass and clouds.
Plus, clouds are so much harder to see through to cut the lawn. And much more difficult to bag.
Just what will become of our lush green lawns? That’s the million dollar question!
And, how will we know where to spread the fertilizer in the fall if all these clouds are still hanging around?
It’s such a tragedy, too, that so many of the pretty, puffy, cumulus clouds, in what remains of the sky above, have been replaced with gaping black holes.
So unsightly.
Needless to say, life is rough. Isn’t it?
I imagine the next thing to go will probably be gravity.
Or, perhaps Sarah Palin. Maybe, Lady Gaga.
It’s so much easier for the Alien Body Snatchers to grab us now. All they have to do is reach through those giant black holes and pick us up.
All I know is, they better not try and snatch George Clooney away from us!
That would be an impossible void to fill.
Till further notice, continue with the deep breathing exercises and the melodious chanting:
‘Yes we can, yes we can..’
I promise you, we will get through this and the sky can probably be patched up in no time flat with a quick visit to Home Depot.
But, in the meantime, we need to stay banded together in Libra
But far enough away from Saturn, so he doesn’t try to get fresh with us.
We need to stay alert in our fortified hideouts from the Traffic Cops.
Who, due to the Jupiter, Mars and Pluto alignment, are showing up on our doorsteps in record numbers now.
And, painfully, in place of the Prize Patrol.
Issuing us speeding tickets, in advance.
Such zealotry!
But yet another typical byproduct of the ongoing Cardinal T-Cross, now in day 3,444 of the Julian calendar.

“Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature in his pictures.” Henry Ward Beecher
In the News:
Prosecutors reportedly dropped an assault case against former Vice President, Al Gore, (b. 3/31/48) over the weekend, stemming from allegations made by a masseuse in 2006 in Portland, Oregon, that Gore had “sexually assaulted her” in his hotel room.
Interestingly, Gore presently has Pluto exactly on his 3 degree Capricorn Moon and his Moon is caught up in the current Cardinal T-Cross, with it being squared by both Jupiter in Aries and Mars in Libra, and also soon both Saturn and Venus in Libra will be squaring it. Squares, too, force issues, so this is probably why this matter has come to a head now. Jupiter is also in Aries which is the sign ruling law enforcement. Mars rules Aries, and deposited in the sign of Libra, can activate legal and court matters.
The Moon in a horoscope represents one’s feelings and emotions, women, home and family life, as well as the public. Pluto also governs “sexual issues,” as co-ruler of Scorpio, the sign of sex. Additionally, Pluto rules death and rebirth.
Recently Gore’s home and family life have also undergone a “death” and “transformation,” of sorts, with his announcement that he and Tipper were getting divorced after decades of marriage. Pluto conjuncting the Moon can often be a disruptive influence for home and family matters and additionally it has proven, in Gore’s case, to also be disruptive for him regarding his public image, which has taken quite a beating, in wake of those assault allegations.
Pluto additionally rules manipulation and control issues and sometimes when we have strong Pluto aspects we meet up with people who try to manipulate us, or try to control us, for their own special gains. Not saying that this necessarily occurred here, with respect to Al Gore’s situation, but rather just speaking in general about how Pluto aspects often play out.

The ever-changing Moon leaves carefree Sagittarius for cautious Capricorn, dramatically activating, yet again, the volatile Cardinal T-Cross.

DANCE, DANCE, DANCE TO THE T-SQUARE POLKA!
“In the starry sky above, the decibel level is getting louder.

Away! Away!
What’s really fueling the madness is that they’re blasting us from above with polka music!
And the planets, they’re dancing around like chickens
And quaking like ducks!
Turbulent times that we’re living in, for sure.
No place to hide from the polka music and the incessant, problematic images of accordions.
Katie Couric is even interviewing Sarah Palin about accordions and asking her whether she knows how to play one. Palin finds it difficult to give Katie a definitive answer to the question. It’s scary. Very scary.

In all due seriousness today, we have “big stuff” going on in the heavens now and for the next several days. The energy backdrop is very volatile, things are happening pronto, major changes occurring at lightning speed. Some of these may be with the Earth itself as she readies herself to do some heavy “steam cleaning.”
The Moon hovering over the T-Cross and conjunct “Purge Agent” Pluto today signifies key transformational changes are in store. Also, with Moon-Pluto in governmental Capricorn we are again dealing with those ugly, primal “manipulative control issues” and wanting to “seize power” and pounce on others unchecked. So we need to uncharacteristically restrain ourselves, which will help us to create a more effective result in the long run, anyway, with far fewer karmic consequences.
One quick thought here with the Moon-Pluto conjunction today setting off the Jupiter-Pluto square: This is “prime time energy again for all manner of spy stuff!” Perfect day for catching “Big Fish” if we’re willing to handsomely and cleverly bait the hook. No telling the kind of dirt we can find on our fellow man now, if we cast the net wide enough.
Also, other than the spy energy, what I am really loving about today is the Energizing Sun forming an exact trine to Innovator Uranus. Historically, very cool, out-of-the-ordinary stuff has happened on Sun-Uranus days. In our personal lives, Sun-Uranus days are favorable for trying new, oddball approaches to solving our problems. These new approaches might just work now, the nature of Uranus is quirky, but also signifies genius!
In the News: President Obama reportedly personally telephoned Shirley Sherrod Thursday, the woman who was embarrassingly axed from the Agriculture Department earlier this week in a rush to judgment. Apparently Obama apologized to Sherrod, which I thought was cool, especially since he was doing so at the most perfect time from a cosmic perspective: Sun in leadership Leo exactly sextile to proper protocol player Saturn in diplomatic Libra. I had blogged yesterday that Sun-Saturn is perfect for extending an olive branch.

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)Â 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!)

COSMIC WEATHER:
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 (Leo).
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, and also dramatically enhancing the power of the Mercury-Jupiter energy today, we have Pioneering, Energetic Mars in the Health and Employment Sign of Virgo harmoniously and exactly sextiling the Sun (Solar Eclipse). 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.

Too, after a close examination of the planets, 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:
