COSMIC WATCH:

“Remember, people will judge you by your actions, not your intentions. You may have a heart of gold…but so does a hard-boiled egg.” Source Unknown

The authoritative Sun, the largest body in our solar system, squares off with forceful Mars today. When these two meet up, we often feel compelled to take assertive action to prove ourselves. The possible challenge for us here is to make sure that by acting in this manner we do not needlessly ruffle too many feathers as this could get us sent to the back of the classroom today! Since Mars also governs our physical energy, we may be able to make headway on our “to-do lists” as we may be feeling more invigorated now.

On another level, Sun-Mars aspects can often be very emotionally galvanizing, poising us to seek out adventurous or trail-blazing experiences.

Also today, mental Mercury is shifting from curious Gemini into sentimental Cancer where it will stay until June 25th. This may find us communicating with more sensitivity, including articulating our feelings more. Our words may also be able to trigger more emotionalism from others. Cancer also rules home and family and Mercury here may be putting more of a focus on these areas for us the next few weeks. “His heart was like a sensitive plant, that opens for a moment in the sunshine, but curls up and shrinks into itself at the slightest touch of the finger, or the lightest breath of the wind.” Anne Bronte

Some Astrological Research about transiting Sun square Mars: The very last time that we had the Sun in communication Gemini, exactly square to Mars in perfecting Virgo (like we have today), was on June 1 of 1980. On that date, The Cable News Network (CNN), was officially launched at 5:00 pm EST in Atlanta, Georgia. Gemini governs news reporting which makes this an especially fascinating bit of astrological info. Mars in industrious Virgo perhaps also helped to take the news to a new level then. Too, again this shows the potential trailblazing aspect of the Sun-Mars aspect.

Famous People with Sun Square Mars: Madonna, Bob Dylan, Muhammad Ali (They were all self-made, pioneer types.)

How comfortable are you with being assertive?

Astrology June 1, 2010: Moon Conjuncts Uranus, CNN’s Debut

“To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk.” – Thomas Edison (Aquarian)

Cosmic Watch:

The Moon ventures into innovative Aquarius (1:08 am) and aligns with futuristic Uranus in Aries, shortly thereafter.  We’re potentially more inclined to want to break some Saturnian rules today and stretch beyond our current limits as towing the status quo is of far less consequence to us now.  We are poised to change things up and make some waves!

On This Day in History:

Speaking of waves, it was thirty years ago today – June 1, 1980 -that Ted Turner’s CNN hit the airwaves.

At the time of the debut, the Sun (the core of the enterprise) was in newsmaker Gemini, which rules news reporting and information-gathering). The Sun was also in an exact square to pioneering Mars in analytical Virgo.

Sun-Mars days typically usher in new beginnings. The Sun-Mars energy also gives a sense of urgency and adventure, along with a desire to want to go and be where the action (Mars) is. Mars rules the pioneering urge.

Gemini’s planetary ruler, Mercury, which governs speech and communication, was also exactly sextile to abundant Jupiter, the planet of opportunity and expansion.  With Mercury-Jupiter, there would likely never be a loss for words or things to report on for CNN

When CNN launched, expansive Jupiter was in Virgo, along with Mars and Saturn.  Virgo is perfect for in-depth news analysis, as this sign is all about dissecting the facts and information that Gemini has collected.  The descriptive keyword for Virgo is “analysis.”

In the physical body, Virgo rules the intestines, the part of the body that breaks down food particles so that they may be digested.

Practical, stabilizing Saturn was also in a supportive sextile to inventive Uranus in transforming Scorpio.  Uranus rules television broadcasting.  Saturn here provided firm footing for the new Uranian venture. Ideally, we want to have positive Saturn aspects, as Saturn gives longevity and worldly success.

Additionally, Saturn was exactly square to Neptune in Sagittarius, the sign of long-distance travel and faraway lands.  Neptune rules images and television cameras. CNN became a pioneering platform for broadcasting news images from around the world.

From the beginning, CNN also helped build and fostered a sense of Neptunian oneness.  Neptune is all about dissolving the borders that separate us, both personally and collectively. With CNN, we were finally able to see and hear about what was going on around the world and I think that made us feel more connected in our humanity.

Enjoy your Tuesday. Make some exciting news of your own today!

Astrology May 2010: Taurus Sun Squares Mars in Leo, Picasso Record Set

Cosmc Watch:

A painting by Picasso “Nude, Green Leaves and Bust” sold for $106.5 million last night at Christie’s, setting a record as the most expensive piece of artwork ever sold at an auction.  Picasso reportedly painted the picture in one day!

Astrologically, the transiting Sun in Taurus was exactly square pioneering Mars in Leo at auction time. Taurus rules money and possessions and Mars in Leo potentially fires up creative-type endeavors.  Mars nature is thought to bee adventurous and often correlates with “firsts” being set, while the square “forces action.” often impulsive, spontaneous moves.

Too, we still have thinker Mercury in acquisition-minded Taurus separating from a trine to intense passions Pluto in status-conscious Capricorn

Astrology May 4, 2010: Sun Square Mars, United Airlines Merger

“Perhaps there is only one cardinal sin: impatience.  Because of impatience we were driven out of Paradise, because of impatience we cannot return.” W.H. Auden

Cosmic Watch:

With the Sun square Mars, we’re possibly feeling more pressured and are more prone to acting on impulse rather than thought. That strategy can be risky and self-sabotaging, especially today when we can easily get in over our head.

It may be far wiser for us to take some time and gather our thoughts and put our minds at ease before acting. Sometimes, too, it’s better to let things play out.

We also want to make sure that we focus our attention, as best as we can, on whatever task it is that we are working on. That way we can help to avoid careless mishaps.

Also, focusing on our strengths instead of ruminating on our weaknesses, serves us very well now. When our thoughts are centered on what we can do, we feel empowered. However, when we dwell on our perceived deficits, that only adds to our feeling of pressure.

“Argue for your limitations and, sure enough, they’re yours.” Richard Bach

The Moon also wraps up her sojourn through pragmatic Capricorn and enters experimental Aquarius at 4:52 pm EDT. That Moon sign change may also be when we are more inclined to throw caution to the wind. We may want to remember, though, that exercising caution is sometimes a byproduct of wisdom.

In the News:

United Airlines announced on Monday it will merge with Continental Airlines in a deal worth $3.2 billion, creating the world’s largest airline! Yesterday is when we also had Mercury (ruler of travel and transportation) exactly trine to controlling/transforming Pluto. Pluto is often linked with power moves and this merger will certainly do that.

Also, the transiting Sun in merger-acquisition Taurus is square to pioneering Mars symbolically signifying taking action (square) on business deals (Taurus).

Uranus also rules aviation and we additionally have practical, resourceful Saturn opposed to Uranus now. That is no doubt another factor as the two existing airlines (Saturn) come together to form essentially a new entity (Uranus) perhaps as a matter of survival (Saturn).

Enjoy your Tuesday!

Astrology May 3, 2010: Mercury Trines Pluto

“The person who can combine frames of reference and draw connections between ostensibly unrelated points of view is likely to be the one who makes the creative breakthrough.”  Denise Skerejian.

Cosmic Watch:

We are possibly more astute in our thinking today and capable of very deep psychological perceptions and mental breakthroughs as Intellectual Mercury trines transformational Pluto.

Pluto represents hidden or submerged elements and aligned with Mercury we potentially have aspects of our deepest, innermost being filtering through to the surface now. Our task today is to sift through those inner contents for nuggets of gold!

“Truth like gold, is to be obtained not by its growth, but by washing away from it all that is not gold.” Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy.

Mercury-Pluto is a healing energy that can help us to get at the root of our thinking with an eye to purging some of our more toxic or self-sabotaging beliefs about ourselves. We are able to eliminate negative thinking when we consciously assign experiences that we don’t like to those negative thoughts.

Moon, meanwhile, continues in ambitious Capricorn and the Taurus Sun is applying to a square to Mars in Leo which is exact tomorrow. The urge for power is potentially elevated now. Positive advancement is possible, but we must be careful not to create unnecessary enmity by acting with little or no regard for others.  This especially applies to any financial or possession dealings.

“Leadership is based on inspiration, not domination; on cooperation, not intimidation.” William Arthur Ward.

Enjoy your Monday!
