Sky Log
Steven Forest

Traditional astrologers “make predictions.” Often they are correct. But right or wrong, “predictions” turn you into a marionette, with the planets holding your strings. And in my opinion, that is not a very inspiring description of the way the cosmos works, nor a very accurate one. You are vastly more powerful than that. You can, to a great extent, shape your own life. That at least is my belief. The future isn’t crystallized. It’s a wavering, quivering web of possibilities. How will they manifest? Much depends upon how you wield the magical wild card we call your freedom.

So, what’s the use of astrology? In a nutshell, it can help you make better choices. The planets never give a definitive answer to the question “What will happen to me?” Instead, they ask the question. But they ask the question in a very specific way: “Given everything you are, all the bridges you’ve crossed, all the contracts you’ve signed, there are several possibilities for what you might do next…” In other words, “Here’s the menu. What are you having?”

Question mark.

And the question mark is the most important part of the whole inquiry, because that’s where the uncertainty — and your freedom — lies. But the planets do even more. They offer advice. In a sense, they recommend certain choices over others. They seem biased toward your evolution. They often suggest that you take the less familiar path, the one that moves you into richer fields of your own potentiality. The planets express this rather philosophical bias in a very concrete way. Typically, when you make a less energetic response to a planetary question, the results, while initially comfortable, rapidly turn painful. Sometimes the pain is immediate and dramatic, as in the collapse of an important relationship. Other times, it’s more subtle, as in the degeneration of life into deadening boredom and ritual. Either way, sooner or later we know you made a wrong turn somewhere.

In the pages that follow, we will be exploring the coming months of your life from this planetary perspective. There are three parts to the report, and any or all of them may be included here, depending on which have been requested. First, the big questions. In the part of the report called THE INVITATION, we try to get that “mountain-top” perspective that enables us to make sense of the details. In THE MEANS, we turn our attention to some secondary factors that offer suggestions, help, and support in responding to those big questions. And finally, we’ll look at the report period month-by-month, day-by-day, to get some ground-level insight into THE DETAILS. Your report may be for three, six, nine, or twelve months and may include any or all three sections just described. For this reason, and because some years in your life are astrologically more active than others, report length can vary quite a bit.

Throughout the following text, I’ll be endeavoring to write in plain English, but if you’re unfamiliar with the jargon of astrology, you’ll encounter a few words that may require definition. A “transiting” planet, for example, refers to the actual, current position of that planet in the sky. Sometimes the transiting planets form critical geometric angles with the “natal” planets in the birthchart, triggering developmental questions in your life. These critical angles are called “aspects.”

The “progressed” planets function in much the same way as the transiting planets, but we approach them a little differently. They’re like a script that’s been built into your birthchart. Just as we know that an oak tree will emerge from an acorn and bring forth its leaves in season, similarly each person’s birthchart contains within it the seeds of certain predictable developmental stages. Progressions spell out those stages.

So sit back, open your mind, and engage your heart. It’s time to consider…

The Invitation

Some years loom large in our memories decades down the road; others are blurry, easily forgotten. That universal human reality is reflected in the movements of the planets — astrologically speaking, one year is often far more significant than another, just as in life. Most of the really important celestial factors move rather slowly; thus, it’s not unusual to experience a time in which none of them have gone critical, when we can calmly keep on putting one foot after the other, on “cruise control.”

Well, for you this is definitely not that kind of year. Something truly pivotal is occurring…

Tr. Uranus is Opposite Uranus
In effect: Apr 4, 2009 – May 17, 2009
Peak date(s): Apr 23, 2009

You’ve reached an extraordinary crossroads. Technically, it bears a simple enough name: the Uranian Opposition. Existentially, it will rock you. The planet Uranus takes eighty-four years to get around the Sun, which corresponds symbolically to the length of human life. In average terms, people die a little younger than that, but emotionally there’s something “just right” about living through exactly one Uranian cycle. At the Uranian Opposition, the planet has completed precisely half its journey. (The orbit is a bit irregular, which accounts for this event not always occurring at age forty-two.) Thus, the Uranian Opposition is the archetypal midpoint of life. In a nutshell: Welcome to midlife!

Deep inside you, behind all the social programming you learned from your family, your community, and the television set, there is a core of unique selfhood. Every time you’ve made a good, lasting decision in your life, it’s been the result of tuning into that core Self and taking its advice. But, unless you glow in the dark, not all your decisions have been that unerring. We all make choices, imagining them to be “our own,” but in fact we are living out someone else’s expectations of us — mom’s, dad’s, those of our peer group, maybe those of some culture-hero who’s made an impression on us. Thus, the storyline of your life so far reflects a battle: with your real self on one side — and on the other, the unauthentic, “normal” person you’ve sometimes erroneously imagined yourself to be.

What is happening in your life now is that your True Self is getting extremely assertive. Decisions and commitments which you’ve made based on bad information about yourself are coming unglued. Two master teachers are arising for you now. One is Enthusiasm. The other is the “Blahs.” You need to listen to both. The “Blahs” come up when you persist in some action not rooted in your authentic Self, which will simply refuse to release the energy you’ll need to continue. This can be quite scary when, for example, the Uranian message is that you’re in the wrong career…and you find yourself unable to concentrate at work. But there’s another teacher: enthusiasm — when you’ll find yourself filled with strange, new curiosities and interests. Indulge them! They’re rooted in your newly-energized core. They are the voice of your long-lost essence.

There’s a phrase which rattles around almost everyone’s mind at this crossroads: “It’s about time I do something for myself for a change!” And it’s good advice…just put a capital “S” in the word “myself” and you’ll see the larger picture. You were born to follow a particular path through life. Like everyone else, you’ve gotten a bit off target over the years. And now this year you’re going through a kind of “mid-course correction.” Trust your impulses. The reward is a vastly more meaningful and interesting pattern of experience as you move into life’s long second act.

A footnote: in a classic “situation-comedy” midlife crisis, the person undergoing the experience often makes an ass of himself or herself through reverting to inappropriately youthful behavior. He or she buys a ratty sports car, starts dressing like a pop star, worries overmuch about the wear and tear of gravity upon the physical form. Succumbing to those impulses is a waste of time, but often they can be decoded and reveal useful information. If you find yourself sexually attracted to a much younger person, for example, reason like this: How young would I have to be for this relationship to appear conventionally appropriate? Then think back to that time in your life. What were you doing? What choices did you make then? What bridges did you burn? Probably you’ll soon zero in on a place in your biography where you got off course. Maybe it was an unwise career compromise. Or a poorly-timed pregnancy. Or a marriage that should have been three dates. Whatever you learn, the aim of the Uranian Opposition is to help you get back into harmony with the real inner agenda of your life, and knowing where the mistakes were made long ago can often help you know what’s missing from the picture today.

Your Uranian Opposition affects the entire period covered by this report, but its impact peaks Apr 23, 2009.

Tr. Pluto is Square Moon
In effect: in progress – Nov 8, 2008
Peak Date(s): sometime before the report period.

The planet Pluto is shading the spirit of your life nowadays, and in a nutshell that means that you are being challenged to heal. Pluto, as you probably know, is the lord of the underworld…or to put it more succinctly, the God of Hell. And it is disquieting, to say the least, to imagine that this deity is currently dining at your table. But take heart! The “hell” inside you needs airing out, and that is essentially what this transit is about. You’ve been hurt. You’ve been used, abused, rejected, exploited, lied to…the whole sad litany. And, like the rest of us, you’ve sometimes had to keep the proverbial stiff upper lip and simply get on with your life. But where does all that hurt go? Down deep into the unconscious mind, where it stays until you’re clear enough and strong enough to handle resurrecting it and really going beyond it. Pluto’s action is to bring up buried emotions. Its tone is intense. It often feels moody and confrontative. It can destabilize and disrupt the areas of your life that it’s touching. The best course is to resolve to go deeper and deeper, truth above kindness and resolution over comfort. It’s not easy, but in the end the energizing and empowering of the psyche make the process worthwhile. What is Pluto actually doing? Currently it is square your natal Moon. Although Pluto is a slow-moving planet and usually unfolds its story over a period of two or three years, during the period of this report the action peaks sometime before the report period..

Let’s begin deciphering this configuration with the understanding that the action driving these existential developments is showing up in the part of your life we call the Ninth House. That’s where Pluto is currently making its influence felt, thus bringing events to bear upon you. Typically, when the “House of Long Journeys” is stimulated, life is eventful and expansive in tone. You are challenged to stretch out toward new experiential horizons through travel and educational efforts — to toss hand grenades into the well-oiled machinery of your life. Why? Because deep down inside, you are starting to get bored with yourself! The key question with which you must wrestle is this: which adventure is the right one? Astrology cannot answer precisely, but here’s one helpful hint — to travel the right new road and thus refresh your spirit, you will need every ounce of the energy of Pluto that you can muster. It’s that kind of adventure, that kind of stretching, that is appropriate for you now. But what’s the core issue? What part of your own life is at stake? To answer that, we turn our attention to the Moon, which is being invited into development by the invigorating, exhilarating impact of these new perceptions.

Astrology is the basic “programming language” of human consciousness. That may seem like a bold claim, but it’s easily tested and proven. Pick someone who imagines he or she knows nothing at all about astrology. Ask them what the Moon means. After an initially dumbfounded look, you’ll probably get an answer such as, “I dunno…feelings?” Which is quite correct. The mind naturally associates the Moon with darkness, with moonlight…and therefore with ghosts and romance, magic and tears, vulnerability and exhilaration: emotions. Deep inside us all is a subjective realm. Love and hate, joy and sorrow, dwell there. So do our daydreams and our creativity. If we could “average” a person’s mood over a lifetime, we’d have an excellent profile of his or her Moon. When the Moon is triggered into development by a passing transit or progression, your inner life is stimulated. You feel stirred up. Powerful currents of emotional energy, for weal or woe, are released into your psyche. The very basis of happiness for you is evolving.

The Twelfth House is where the Moon lies in your natal chart, and it is currently undergoing a lot of evolutionary emphasis. It is critical that you make an effort to get in touch with the energies of the Moon in yourself at this point. You need them, and you actually do have them available to you, but they’ve got a pattern of slipping away from your conscious control. Don’t let it happen! Meditate on the Moon! Draw pictures of it and tape them to the refrigerator! Do what it takes to avoid shooting yourself in the foot, which is what will happen if you let circumstances bamboozle you out of these healing, balancing energies.

The aspect connected with the astrological process we’re investigating here is the square, as we have seen. The square, traditionally characterized as an unfortunate aspect, describes a geometric angle of 90 degrees between the natal planet and the moving trigger. To call squares “bad” is misleading. More accurately, they are compelling. In the area of your life we’re considering, a terrific friction has arisen. It’s not comfortable, but it is an extremely effective motivator. The trick in using the energy creatively lies in moving decisively — determining precisely what you want, claiming it, and letting the rest go. A season of tough choices is upon you. Regarding the process we described in the previous paragraphs, there are costs involved in all the courses available to you…the most costly, for all concerned, being the course of indecision.

Tr. Pluto is Square Ascendant
In effect: Feb 3, 2009 – Jun 7, 2009
Peak Date(s): sometime after the report period.

Pluto made an appearance earlier in this report, but now it has another message for you. Always this planet signals the existence of some emotional baggage to be released, some hurtful or humiliating piece of your personal history that needs to be remembered or reconsidered. The alternative is typically to re-enact some old wounding drama. Pluto currently is square your natal Ascendant. The action peaks sometime after the report period..

Currently Pluto is steering a course through your Tenth House. That’s the traditional “House of Career,” and any planet passing through that part of your natal chart suggests that external developmental pressures are now arising which have the effect of modifying your place in the world. Something is brewing in your profession or vocation, or in your social status — the way you look to people who don’t really know you very well. What is it? We can’t say exactly, but to respond optimally to the potentials and challenges built into this event, you’ll need to act according to the spirit of Pluto, as we just described it. But what’s the core issue? What part of your own life is at stake? To answer that, we turn our attention to the Ascendant, which is being invited into development by these professional or social openings.

Like the rest of us, you are a complicated, paradoxical individual, full of contradictions and undercurrents. That’s human. But another part of being human is that, like the rest of us, you need to get out of bed in the morning and put on a streamlined, simplified social mask that allows you to function in the social beehive. There’s no way that you can have a truly intimate relationship with every face you see in your daily life, nor would you likely want such connections. So we all keep much of what we really are behind our astrological Ascendant, which symbolizes that mask. Physically, it is simply the sign that was dawning in the east at the instant of your birth…and symbolically it represents how you “dawn” on people who don’t know you very well. When triggered by a passing transit or progression, the Ascendant signals the need to make some adjustments in the way you present yourself in the social world, so that your outer appearance remains reasonably aligned with who you have become inwardly. The work is superficial; which is not to say unimportant. Often it has to do with changing how you hold your body, the way you speak, and the clothes you wear.

The two factors, as we mentioned, are linked by a square — traditionally seen as a “bad” aspect, but more accurately seen as simply frictional. Squares generally suggest tough choices, external pressures, and at least some stress.

Tr. Uranus is Opposite Sun
In effect: Apr 13, 2009 – Jun 5, 2009
Peak Date(s): May 4, 2009

The planet Uranus is presently stirring the pot of your life, and that always promises a tumultuous passage, peppered with unexpected developments and encounters. Outwardly, Uranus is the wild card, bringing unpredictable and unforeseen events into the picture. Inwardly, it signals a time of accelerated individuation…that is, a time in which who you really are and what you truly want are rapidly emerging and defining themselves. A portion of what you imagined to be your identity has, in fact, little to do with you; it is a side-effect of your social training, nothing more. And, like training wheels on a kid’s bike, you are now ready to dump it. This has an unsettling effect upon not only yourself, but also those around you. Often during Uranian periods there is a distinct “changing of the guard” in our social circles; old relationships end, new ones appear. Claim your right to be yourself — that’s the essence of the transiting Uranus. Whatever it touches, changes. Trust the changes! Like a hard wind blowing the sand off a buried city, they are revealing who you actually have been all along. That’s Uranus in general. Specifically, Uranus is opposite your natal Sun: May 4, 2009.

Currently Uranus is maneuvering through your Twelfth House, which is the last house of the cycle and often suggests endings and dissolutions. Your key to success here lies in sorting out what parts of your life and circumstances have truly run their course and are therefore ready to be released. That’s hard, sometimes, since like the rest of us you’re in part a creature of habit and are therefore subject to getting too attached to the familiar. Of what should you be letting go? Part of the answer lies with Uranus, as we just described it: the part of you that’s ready to “die and be reborn” is tangled up with that kind of energy and attitude. But we can go further. There is also some ending and releasing going in connection with the Sun, which is being invited into development by these essential and apt conclusions — some of which, by the way, may be forced upon you by outside events if you’re slow to recognize their necessity.

The Sun, as astronomers tell us, is the center of the solar system. Everything spins around it. With its enormous gravity, the Sun holds the entire system together. In a parallel way, the astrological Sun represents the gravitational center of your personality. Your ego. Your identity. The part of you that gets up in the morning and, without even a single sip of coffee, knows its name, rank, and serial number. Those same astronomers inform us that without the Sun’s radiant energy, life as we understand it would cease to exist. Again, astrological meaning follows astronomical fact: the Sun symbolizes that spark of life inside you, your elemental vitality. Enthusiasm, energy, recuperative powers — all these are solar themes. Thus, when the natal Sun is triggered in an important way, two critical questions come up for review: who are you, and what really makes you want to get out of bed in the morning?

Sustaining steady contact with the energy of the Sun, always good for you, now figures especially prominently in one critical dimension of your life: the Sixth House, which is where the Sun lies in your birthchart. What themes or issues come to the fore here? Responsibilities, duties, and the fulfillment of your commitments. But before we start sounding too much like the Boy Scout Handbook, let’s remember that the pivotal issue of the Sixth House lies in recognizing the exact nature of your proper obligations, and not letting yourself be cowed into signing up for boring, self-sacrificial martyrdoms that are none of your business anyway. Clarifying the exact location of the thin line between humility and humiliation is on the front burner for you now. One rule of thumb: when your duties have the flavor of the Sun, you’re on the right track.

The geometric angle or “aspect” involved in the process we are studying is, as we said, the opposition. Not surprisingly, this suggests that the natal planet and the moving one are 180 degrees apart. Tension is thus woven into the spirit of this period of your life. The two forces we described are polarized, which often translates emotionally into a feeling of being damned if you do, and damned if you don’t. How can you break the logjam? Recognize that any impossibilities you are experiencing in this area probably arise from an incomplete or biased perspective. The opposition aspect always calls for a leap into a new, more accepting level of consciousness. Something is missing in your view of the problem — and that missing link (here’s the corker…) lies in the wisdom embodied by those people or situations that are now antagonizing you. It’s not that they’re right and you’re wrong; only that the truth that can carry you beyond this impasse lies somewhere between the two positions.

What we’ve considered above is the underpinning of this phase of your life. It’s truly elemental material — the stuff of which milestones are made. There’s no guarantee that astrological forces of such magnitude will be activated for everyone all the time. What follows is an analysis of some slightly less portentous dimensions of your astrological picture…less portentous, but still powerful enough to qualify as part of this year’s “Invitation.”

Try to see what follows in the light of all that’s gone before…

Tr. Neptune is Square Neptune
In effect: Aug 4, 2008 – Jan 22, 2009
Peak Date(s): Sep 11, 2008; Dec 21, 2008

The planet Neptune is presently tinting and shading your biography, adding its dreamlike quality to the existential stew. Close your eyes; there’s a world in there. That’s Neptune, the planet of consciousness itself. Now open your eyes. There’s a world out there too, and it’s hard to ignore it. In fact, the outer world has become so pressing in its demands that you’ve partly lost contact with the inner one. But Neptune, transiting through sensitive territories for you now, is fixing that. Your inner world is so full it’s brimming over, overflowing its banks into your daily life. If you resist the process, you’ll find a host of Neptune problems plaguing you: losing the car keys, forgetting to pay the electric bill, having the attention span of a three-year-old on a sugar jag. But there’s an alternative: trust the process. Slow down. Meditate. Let the images come. Moult opinions. Breathe in, breathe out. Why? Because your unconscious mind has a message for you. It has to do with the possibility of happiness for you over the next few years, about how old sources of joy are drying up and — critically — about new ones you must learn to recognize. How do you receive the message? You stop resisting. You simply let it in. That’s Neptune in the broad sense. How is it effecting you specifically? Neptune is square your natal Neptune: Sep 11, 2008; Dec 21, 2008.

Currently Neptune is maneuvering through your Twelfth House. As we said earlier in the report, this is the final house of the cycle and often suggests endings and dissolutions. A meditative, accepting attitude is best now, letting go lightly of the things that are taken from you, knowing that despite appearances what is lost now has no place in the journey to come. What is to be released? A hint lies with Neptune, as we just described it — that part of you has completed a major phase of its work and must now “graduate” to a new level. But we can go further. There is also a need for some release in connection with Neptune, which is being invited into development by these vital resolutions and these necessary deaths — some of which, by the way, may be forced upon you by circumstance if you’re overdue in appreciating their necessity.

Close your eyes. Don’t think of anything at all. Just be aware of all that infinite, dark space. Welcome to Neptune. In your natal chart, it represents the part of you that knows how to enter trance, to meditate, or to “space out.” Everybody’s got one, and everybody experiences that part of their consciousness from time to time. When triggered by transits or progressions, Neptune asks you to let go, to allow material to enter your mind uncensored and unstructured. It’s more akin to feeling than thinking, but neither word captures it perfectly. Dreaming is the closest analogy…a sort of free-associative state in which your own mind works like an unpredictable movie theater. Why bother? Because such an astrological event signals that your unconscious mind or, if you prefer, your soul has an important message and is trying to get in touch with you.

Bolstering the energies of Neptune, never a bad idea, is particularly essential now, for Neptune lies in your Eighth House, the traditional “House of Death.” Mortality itself is usually not the issue; more accurately, the question here lies with all the fears with which you live and all the hurts and distortions the past has visited upon you. All of us sit on emotional volcanos. You, too. Now the time has come to look more closely at some uncomfortable memories…perhaps to share them with someone you trust implicitly. Take the spirit and attitude of Neptune, as we just described it. That mood will carry you most deeply and efficiently into the unsettling material at hand.

When Neptune forms an aspect with own natal position in your chart, a season of spiritual renewal is unfolding. “Man,” as the Bible tells us, “shall not live by bread alone.” And that of course applies to the ladies as well. Each person’s path is different, but for all of us it is equally essential that we follow it. Whether you go on a Lakota vision quest, a yogic fast, a Presbyterian retreat, or off for a quiet weekend of contemplative fishing is your own business. But whatever your inclinations along those lines, now is the time to follow them. You need an emotional lift, and that’s how to get it.

Tr. Uranus is Opposite Pluto
In effect: Aug 18, 2008 – Feb 23, 2009
Peak Date(s): Sep 14, 2008; Feb 4, 2009

Uranus came up earlier in this report. Now we encounter it again. As you may recall, this planet represents the “wild card” in life, and often correlates with unexpected events. Behind the roller-coaster ride, the real issue is your ability to claim your true individuality, even if that involves destabilizing certain aspects of your existing circumstances. Uranus currently is opposite your natal Pluto. The action peaks Sep 14, 2008; Feb 4, 2009.

Currently Uranus is maneuvering through your Twelfth House. As we said earlier in the report, this is the final house of the cycle and often suggests endings and dissolutions. A meditative, accepting attitude is best now, letting go lightly of the things that are taken from you, knowing that despite appearances what is lost now has no place in the journey to come. What is to be released? A hint lies with Uranus, as we just described it — that part of you has completed a major phase of its work and must now “graduate” to a new level. But we can go further. There is also a need for some release in connection with Pluto, which is being invited into development by these vital resolutions and these necessary deaths — some of which, by the way, may be forced upon you by circumstance if you’re overdue in appreciating their necessity.

Everyone has fears. Everyone has shames and wounded places. In you and me and everyone else, there are marks left by the times we’ve been lied to, abandoned, used, or exploited. It’s not the world’s cheeriest subject, but turning away only empowers those Plutonian hurts, gives them more latitude to influence your life. When your natal Pluto is triggered by a passing transit or progression, dark shadows are stirred within you. It’s a signal that forgotten, unprocessed, or repressed elements of your personal history are asking to be investigated. The procedure requires intensity, honesty, and emotional courage. The results are worth the effort. If you work well with these energies, you emerge stronger, clearer, and often with renewed inspiration. If you hesitate, it’s not unusual for the old wounding dramas to be re-enacted in your life.

Your Sixth House held our attention for a while earlier in these pages; now we see it making itself felt again. You have an inherent desire to be helpful and competent, and you express it best when you find ways to give people around you “gifts” of the nature of Pluto, as we just described it. That part of your nature is currently in the spotlight, so offer yourself and your gifts to those who need them. You’ll grow wiser, and they’ll be happier.

When explosive Uranus collides with unsettling Pluto, secrets long-concealed are brought to light, while unexpected, irresistible forces enter your circumstances. What one might call the “Hand of Fate” makes itself felt, sweeping away, often with frightening speed, situations which have outlived their evolutionary usefulness. The challenge to you here lies in adapting to a radically new perspective on your life.

The two factors, as we mentioned, are linked by an opposition, which suggests some kind of tension or tug-of-war between them. You are asked to adjust your position, to adapt to the demands of the world around you, and to find a middle-ground between the various opposing needs and values.

Pr. Venus is Conjunct Pluto
In effect: Aug 21, 2008 – continuing
Peak Date(s): sometime after the report period.

“Love.” What a word. Eskimos, it is said, distinguish two hundred different kinds of snow, each with its own name. Perhaps we should take a cue from them and cash in our word “love,” replacing it with dozens of more specific concepts. It would still baffle us, inspire us, give us sleepless nights — but at least we might then be able to communicate with each other more clearly. The love an infant feels for his or her mother…the consuming, volatile love of our teen years…the affection between old friends…the quiet affinity between those who have been well-married for decades: why do we put them all under the dominion of the same syllable? They’re certainly different human experiences. Love evolves. Our capacity to feel that emotion takes on new resonances as we mature, and it drops old resonances.

Astrologers measure that evolution through the motions of the Progressed Venus. When it comes to a sensitive zone in your birthchart, you are invited to open yourself to new dimensions of human relationships. Typically, the passage of progressed Venus over a critical point coincides with visible alterations in our sphere of intimacy: friendships, business or creative partnerships, romantic bonds…all come to crossroads. Sometimes they come to endings. Other times they slough off deadening rituals and experience renewal, even renaissance. Many times such Venusian events mark the arrival of new people in our lives, people whose destinies are entwined with our own. Always, though, behind the outward relationship events, there is a deeper layer of meaning in these progressions: you are now asked to deepen the way you love, to love with yet another dimension of your being, to call still another part of your soul into the service of love. And, as always, it’s possible to miss the point, squandering the Venusian force in wheel-spinning romances or soap-opera related interpersonal dramas.

Our first step is to realize that the action and the developmental invitation are manifesting in the Sixth House, for that’s the region of your birthchart through which Venus is now passing. This tells us that duties and responsibilities are currently being emphasized in your life, and that their mood is the same as that of Venus, which we just described. The effect of these external, often somewhat self-sacrificial requirements is to pull your attention away from yourself and place it on the needs of others. But what’s the core issue? What part of your own life is being stimulated into development by these services you’re offering others? To answer that, we turn our attention to Pluto, which is being triggered by this period of hard work, giving, and supporting.

How is the progressed Venus currently touching you? It is conjunct your natal Pluto: sometime after the report period.. In thinking about this, remember that progressions are slow-moving events and that the action simply peaks then; it will be in effect throughout the period of this report.

The natal Pluto — that, as we have seen, symbolizes your own native capacity to probe into yourself and heal yourself. It always deals with the hurts associated with the humiliations and defeats that life has offered us, and the process of going beyond them.

When Venus gets hooked up with Pluto, the progress of love (Venus) depends utterly upon the profundity of your psychological understanding (Pluto). A season of secrets revealed is upon you, and not all of them are pleasant. At a time such as this, your optimal path lies in the direction of facing squarely the lacerations and abrasions of your own personal history and those of one about whom you care very much. Most challengingly, you need to make a mammoth effort to keep the two clearly separated.

As we mentioned, the aspect involved in the event we just described is the conjunction, which refers to a precise alignment between the natal planet and the moving trigger. Thus, the process emphasizes fusion, integration, and synthesis. Of all the possible aspects, the conjunction is the most intense. The explosion rattles your outward circumstances; but it originates inside you, and puts you in the driver’s seat. It is appropriate for you to claim some new level of power, of self-expression, and of autonomy. If you don’t, no one will do it for you; and the opportunity will evaporate.

Tr. Saturn is Conjunct Pluto
In effect: Nov 12, 2008 – Feb 20, 2009
Peak Date(s): Nov 25, 2008; Feb 5, 2009

The planet Saturn is currently casting a gray light on your circumstances — but is it the bleak gray of sorrow or the clear, comforting gray of wisdom and digested experience? That’s the choice. Saturn is classically viewed as the “bad” planet, the “Greater Malefic.” Don’t believe it! Used correctly, its transits can bring dignity and self-respect. Essentially, Saturn is about maturity. The part of your life that’s being touched by the Saturnian energies needs to grow up…which, despite the lies we’re all told, is not a process one mysteriously completes on one’s twenty-first birthday. There is an area of your life where you have simply outgrown yourself, at least inwardly. The task now is to adjust your outward circumstances to reflect the maturity you’ve already attained psychically and invisibly. It is a material problem, not fundamentally a psychological one. To succeed, there is first a need to face reality squarely, even if it’s unsavory. Then to make a hard choice…that is, to reach an emotional bottom line and not be crippled by your awareness of the ambiguities in your situation. And finally, in a spirit of commitment, persistence, and self-discipline, to claim those circumstances in your life which reflect the hard inner work you’ve been doing over the last few years. That’s Saturn in general. Specifically, Saturn is conjunct your natal Pluto: Nov 25, 2008; Feb 5, 2009.

Our first step is to realize that the action and the developmental invitation are manifesting in the Sixth House, for that’s the region of your birthchart through which Saturn is now passing. This tells us that duties and responsibilities are currently being emphasized in your life, and that their mood is the same as that of Saturn, which we just described. The effect of these external, often somewhat self-sacrificial requirements is to pull your attention away from yourself and place it on the needs of others. But what’s the core issue? What part of your own life is being stimulated into development by these services you’re offering others? To answer that, we turn our attention to Pluto, which is being triggered by this period of hard work, giving, and supporting.

When sober-minded Saturn gets involved with dark-hearted Pluto, you’ll have little patience for fluffy, frilly superficiality. This is a serious moment, something of a day of reckoning. Truths must be recognized and told. Lies must be illuminated, and demons named. You are ready. The situation is pressing. It will not go away or improve of its own accord. Take responsibility, move decisively, and do what must be done.

The two factors, as we mentioned, are linked by a conjunction — the most powerful of the geometric aspects and one that suggests convergence, intensification, and often a new beginning.

Tr. Jupiter aligns with the Eleventh House cusp
Date: Dec 3, 2008 – Continuing

The planet Jupiter is currently coloring your circumstances. Before we say exactly how, let’s attempt to understand the more general significance of any Jupiter event. Essentially, this is a call to recognize an opportunity. Traditional astrologers view it more starkly — to them, it is simply the planet of luck. And that is often the case: the toast does tend to land butter-side up when Jupiter is crossing sensitive territories. But the real, evolutionary meaning lies deeper. One key is that Jupiter is future-oriented…it is concerned with bright, unexplored possibilities. Stripped to its bones, Jupiter always asks one primary question: how have you been underestimating yourself? Its transits signal a time when new opportunities come into existence, but to seize them you must recognize that you deserve them, that you are capable of rising to them, and that old deals and compromises are finished. Trust yourself, have faith in life, and go for it: that’s the spirit of Jupiter. How is it affecting you? Jupiter is conjunct your natal Eleventh House cusp: Dec 3, 2008.

Setting priorities — that’s the core of the Eleventh House process. Where do you go from here? What do you really want? A paradox lies at the heart of this phase of your journey. You’ve accomplished a lot…in many ways you’re in an enviable position, harvesting the fruits of long effort. But there’s a sense of anticlimax woven into your accomplishments. The truth of it is that your dreams are coming true — but they are old, burned-out dreams from long ago. You are running on momentum from the past, and that’s nothing to be ashamed of. However, with Jupiter entering this part of the chart, you are now invited to host a strategy-session with yourself.

Behind the well-oiled machinery of your life, behind the web of social relationships and responsibilities you’ve woven, there is a basic sense of directionlessness, rendered invisible to others by the successful, energetic appearance of your life. Outwardly, the old answers still work fine, but the truth is they don’t satisfy you any more. You’ve outgrown them. Can you seize the chance to make a quantum leap? Can you take the initiative and claim a new level of creativity, of public respect, of visionary inspiration and leadership?

Those are the questions woven into the foundation of your current circumstances. To answer them in a positive, sustainable, life-enhancing way you need to figure out exactly what you want…and the answer lies right in the crosshairs of Jupiter, as we just described it. Tremendous physical and creative energies are available to you, along with a wide array of resources and useful alliances…if only you’ll tap into the main line of conscious, self-aware choice in the spirit of Jupiter. It boils down to one eternal truth: to get what you want, you must know what you want.

Tr. Pluto is Conjunct Midheaven
In effect: Dec 15, 2008 – Feb 14, 2009
Peak Date(s): Jan 12, 2009; Jul 5, 2009

Pluto made an appearance earlier in this report, but now it has another message for you. Always this planet signals the existence of some emotional baggage to be released, some hurtful or humiliating piece of your personal history that needs to be remembered or reconsidered. The alternative is typically to re-enact some old wounding drama. Pluto currently is conjunct your natal Midheaven. The action peaks Jan 12, 2009; Jul 5, 2009.

Let’s begin deciphering this configuration by recognizing that the action driving these existential developments is showing up in the part of your life we call the Ninth House, which we encountered earlier in the report, for that is where Pluto is currently making its influence felt. This suggests that events and opportunities involving travel, education, and a general expanding of your horizons are now occurring, and that you could definitely use the breath of fresh air they’ll create if you go ahead and, in the spirit of Pluto, take the leap of faith for which they’re calling. But what’s being triggered inside you? What part of you will benefit most deeply from such exploration and expansion? The answer lies with the Midheaven, which is being invited into development during this time of questing adventure.

Doctor, lawyer, Indian chief — we all play some kind of role in our community. Sometimes you’re paid for it; sometimes you do it for the principle of the matter. The public “hat” you wear is symbolized by the natal midheaven. Physically, it’s the highest point in your birthchart, and it corresponds to the most outward, obvious dimensions of your life: your profession, your status, your social role. When it is stimulated by a transit or a progression, you are advised of some impending evolution or revolution in your style of hat, so to speak. Much depends on the nature of the progressed or transiting planet, but certainly some adjustments must be made in your outward life to reflect more adequately those inner developments which have already taken place.

The two factors, as we mentioned, are linked by a conjunction — the most powerful of the geometric aspects and one that suggests convergence, intensification, and often a new beginning.

Tr. Pluto aligns with the Tenth House cusp
Date: Jan 12, 2009; Jul 5, 2009 – Continuing

Pluto made an appearance earlier in this report, but now it has another message for you. Always this planet signals the existence of some emotional baggage to be released, some hurtful or humiliating piece of your personal history that needs to be remembered or reconsidered. The alternative is typically to re-enact some old wounding drama. Pluto currently is conjunct your natal Tenth House cusp. The action peaks Jan 12, 2009; Jul 5, 2009.

The Tenth House — we ruminated on this piece of astrological symbolism earlier in the report. It’s up again, for Pluto has now entered it. Traditionally the “House of Career,” the Tenth House actually signals any kind of change in your social status, although typically one’s job is the centerpiece of the action. When stimulated, there is always a need to make some adjustments in the way you are interfacing with your larger community…in this case, to embody more of the spirit and tone of Pluto, as we just portrayed it.

Tr. Neptune is Opposite Jupiter
In effect: Jan 27, 2009 – Mar 23, 2009
Peak Date(s): Feb 23, 2009

Neptune played a part earlier in this report, but it has another trick or two up its sleeve. You may remember that this planet refers to letting down barriers and allowing the creative unconscious to speak. When handled well, it triggers a “seed time” in which new inspirations arise. If handled poorly, one tends to go off half-cocked while enamored of unrealistic ideas. So sit tight, enter trance, pay attention to your dreams and, if you’re so inclined, pray or meditate. Neptune currently is opposite your natal Jupiter. The inner opening process peaks Feb 23, 2009.

Currently Neptune is maneuvering through your Twelfth House. As we said earlier in the report, this is the final house of the cycle and often suggests endings and dissolutions. A meditative, accepting attitude is best now, letting go lightly of the things that are taken from you, knowing that despite appearances what is lost now has no place in the journey to come. What is to be released? A hint lies with Neptune, as we just described it — that part of you has completed a major phase of its work and must now “graduate” to a new level. But we can go further. There is also a need for some release in connection with Jupiter, which is being invited into development by these vital resolutions and these necessary deaths — some of which, by the way, may be forced upon you by circumstance if you’re overdue in appreciating their necessity.

Hope and faith are essential to sanity. Without at least a few bright dreams and expansive goals, a person grows flat and dull…becomes a time-server. The same can be said for self-confidence: we need it. And even if such assurance sometimes crosses the line into a sprinkle of arrogance, that’s less troubling and limiting than sitting around afraid to take any risks at all. There is a gambler’s circuit in your psyche that understands these notions perfectly well. Astrologers call it Jupiter. When stimulated by a passing transit or progression, it encourages you to extend yourself further into your world, to bet on yourself, and to recognize emerging opportunities. Be wary at the same time that you don’t settle for glitter when gold may be just around the corner.

Your Sixth House held our attention for a while earlier in these pages; now we see it making itself felt again. You have an inherent desire to be helpful and competent, and you express it best when you find ways to give people around you “gifts” of the nature of Jupiter, as we just described it. That part of your nature is currently in the spotlight, so offer yourself and your gifts to those who need them. You’ll grow wiser, and they’ll be happier.

When Jupiter consorts with Neptune, there’s a cliche that should never be too far from your mind: all that glitters is not gold. Don’t be tempted by “extraordinary possibilities” now, at least not without a careful look at the fine print, a consultation with a sober friend, and a painstaking effort to consider worst-case scenarios. What is really going on here is that a bright new vision is slowly forming inside you. It’s real — or more accurately, it’s going to be real. Don’t mistake its glowing emotional aura for something that is actually, physically, available in the present context.

Tr. Jupiter aligns with the Twelfth House cusp
Date: Apr 3, 2009 – Continuing

Jupiter figured earlier in this analysis. Now we meet it again. As you may recall, this is the planet of possibilities and the seizing of opportunities. Jupiter currently is conjunct your natal Twelfth House cusp. The action peaks Apr 3, 2009.

The Twelfth House — we got acquainted with this piece of astrological symbolism earlier in the report. Now we meet it again, for Jupiter has just crossed its boundaries. Being the last house in the cycle, the Twelfth House refers to endings. Always, during Twelfth House stimulation, you are asked to release the past, to let go. A new vision, of the nature and spirit of Jupiter, is bubbling up from deep inside you…but it’s way, way down in the depths of your psyche and will take a while to surface. Be patient. Be reflective, and meditative. And trust the process, even though you can’t really understand it or predict where the tides will carry you. You’ve entered a season of trust, but not so much in the sense of trusting other people…more like trusting life.

Pr. Moon enters Libra
Date: May 18, 2009 – Continuing

You don’t need to be an astrologer to know what the Moon means. Just engage your imagination. Immediately, the mind free-associates. Moon: night…feelings…falling in love…seeing a ghost… And that’s pretty much what astrologers throughout history have said: the Moon represents your interior life, your “heart.” Like all astrological factors, the Moon progresses, taking a little over a quarter of a century to make one circuit around the chart. It typically spends a couple of years in each sign or house, and eventually forms aspects with all the planets. How do we read it? Simple: at any given moment the progressed Moon tells us where your heart is. Or, to be a little less schmaltzy about it, the Moon says where your attention is. What is concerning you. Where your growth experiences are unfolding — which is often to say where you’re experiencing challenges, upsets, or opportunities to regroup and express yourself in new ways. Being an emotional factor, the progressed Moon always refers to areas of heightened sensitivity. Intuition comes to the forefront. Instincts must be followed. Somehow the unconscious mind has gotten ahead of conscious awareness, and now conscious awareness is catching up, following the trail of intuitive clues and impulses laid down by the wise, dark interior of your spirit.

How is the progressed Moon currently impacting on you? It enters the sign Libra: May 18, 2009.

Libra represents paradox, and your ability to live gracefully with it. During Libran chapters in your life, you are asked to balance conflicting needs and ideals, to be the architect of compromise between opposing personalities or principles. Typically, the emphasis here is on relationships; your path is tied to the strengths and foibles of others. To succeed, you often must develop considerable empathy and diplomacy, learning to bend (for better or worse) with the winds of another person’s nature. Simultaneously, you are asked to assert your own individuality and not simply become an embodiment of another’s requirements. During Libra-dominated phases of our life, we commonly find ourselves stuck at an existential crossroads of some sort. A decision and a commitment must be made. But the choice is not clear. Much hangs in the balance, and yet there are persuasive arguments on each side of the question. Archetypally, these dilemmas are familiar: love versus freedom, home versus career, art versus commerce. The “right” choice may be obscure — but the wrong one is quite clear: to make no decision at all. The temptation arises to hem and haw…to halt between courses, crippled with irresolution. The heart is full of shades of gray — yet life demands a hard choice: black or white. But which? I can’t tell you the answer, but I can tell you how to determine it. Built into the logic of Libra is the necessity for wise counsel. However independent you may be, seek that counsel during this period. If you’ve presented yourself authentically, the people with whom you share your life will hold the mirror before you now. Listen to them! Make your choice, commit to it, and don’t look back.

The Means

If you happen to have a cold on the day you win the lottery, will that taint your memory of the big event? Probably not. Ten years later, you will have forgotten your runny nose. Ten minutes later, more likely.

Life and memory work that way. We prioritize certain kinds of events, experiencing them more vividly and remembering them far longer than the trivial and the predictable. The details of a typical Monday morning aren’t going to last as long in the memory banks as images of your moment of glory or your darkest hour.

In exactly the same way, not all astrological events have the same impact. What we have considered so far are all first-string milestones in your life. The rest of what we’ll be considering is less central — but that’s not to say unimportant. What follows is a set of supplementary transits and progressions, presented chronologically. They’re not quite as profound in their implications as what we’ve seen, but they’re not without emotional and existential consequences. If what we have explored in the previous pages can be viewed as an evolutionary invitation, then, to that lofty end, what follows is….

“The Means”

As you’ll see, each of these events stands as significant in its own right. But their deepest meanings lie in the way they interact with what we’ve considered in the pages above, enhancing and sometimes complicating the broader developmental patterns.

Cards on the table: you can skim the next several pages and, I think, learn some things about the coming months that will prove prophetic…and more importantly, helpful. But the real magic lies in putting all the pieces together, synthesizing them in your heart into an emotional whole — just like you’ve done with, say, memories of a special summer long ago. No computer can do that for you.

Your own creativity, your own reflections on the material we’re covering, your own translations, additions, corrections, amendments, and meditations — these are what make the difference.

Let’s continue.

Tr. Jupiter is Square Mercury
In effect: in progress – Oct 23, 2008
Peak Date(s): Aug 1, 2008; Oct 14, 2008

Jupiter figured earlier in this analysis. Now we meet it again. As you may recall, this is the planet of possibilities and the seizing of opportunities. Jupiter currently is square your natal Mercury. The action peaks Aug 1, 2008; Oct 14, 2008.

Currently Jupiter is navigating your Tenth House. That’s the traditional “House of Career,” as we’ve already discovered, and it tells us that something of the nature of Jupiter is brewing in your profession or vocation, or in your social status. To respond optimally to the potentials and challenges built into this event, you’ll need to act according to the spirit of Jupiter, as we just described it. Being true to yourself is the challenge, as is generally the case in life. But your public life, with all its superficialities and practical pressures, is perhaps the hardest place in which to live up to that ideal. To succeed here, pay special attention to Mercury, which is being invited into development during this time of professional or public reorientation.

Your quickness, your alertness, your curiosity — those are the dimensions of your life dominated by the planet Mercury. To say that Mercury represents your intelligence is quite accurate, but it’s more connected to the natural style of your intelligence: not so much how smart you are as what interests you, and how your intelligence can be employed most pleasurably and efficiently. Intimately linked to such cerebral concerns is the question of your ability to communicate, since ideally there is some relationship between speech and forethought. Thus Mercury, the traditional Messenger of the Gods, is associated with both thought and conversation. When stimulated by a passing transit or progression, Mercury tends to speed up the flow of data in your life. You learn. You listen. You speak. Often events move at a hasty pace, and there’s a feeling of excitement mixed with over-extension.

Maintaining a healthy flow of the energies of Mercury, always good for you, is especially crucial to your closest human relationships: marriage, profound friendship, long-term sexual bonds. Why? Because at the moment of your birth Mercury occupied your Seventh House, the traditional “House of Marriage.” Two lines of reasoning emerge here. The first is that by bringing the flavor of Mercury into your intimate bonds, you shape love in a lasting, more meaningful way for yourself. The second is that your natural partners are themselves people with the spirit of Mercury. Relating deeply to those whose natures are too far removed from that tone and style is simply not your path. However we look at your situation, intimate connections are clearly a front-burner issue right now.

When Mercury hobnobs with Jupiter, an attitude of expansiveness (Jupiter) pervades the mind (Mercury). You are challenged now, like an optimistic Sherlock Holmes, to be alert to possibilities. Think inventively, think positively, and think big: that’s the spirit. In some way, you have been underestimating your intelligence, verbal skills, or general competence. Recognize that, and change it.

Tr. Uranus is Trine Neptune
In effect: in progress – Mar 22, 2009
Peak Date(s): Aug 2, 2008; Mar 4, 2009

Uranus came up earlier in this report. Now we encounter it again. As you may recall, this planet represents the “wild card” in life, and often correlates with unexpected events. Behind the roller-coaster ride, the real issue is your ability to claim your true individuality, even if that involves destabilizing certain aspects of your existing circumstances. Uranus currently is trine your natal Neptune. The action peaks Aug 2, 2008; Mar 4, 2009.

Currently Uranus is maneuvering through your Twelfth House. As we said earlier in the report, this is the final house of the cycle and often suggests endings and dissolutions. A meditative, accepting attitude is best now, letting go lightly of the things that are taken from you, knowing that despite appearances what is lost now has no place in the journey to come. What is to be released? A hint lies with Uranus, as we just described it — that part of you has completed a major phase of its work and must now “graduate” to a new level. But we can go further. There is also a need for some release in connection with Neptune, which is being invited into development by these vital resolutions and these necessary deaths — some of which, by the way, may be forced upon you by circumstance if you’re overdue in appreciating their necessity.

The natal Neptune — that, as we have seen, symbolizes pure consciousness. It is the mystical planet, the part of your being that receives inspiration and, depending on your metaphysical tastes, either inner guidance or divine direction.

Your Eighth House engaged us previously in the report. Now we see it provoked again, indicating that your attitude toward the circumstances we’re considering reflects a fundamental distortion. It has to do with your own psychological scar-tissue, and it biases your thinking in the direction of Neptune, as we just described it. Follow your moods down into the labyrinths of your psyche; pay attention to your dreams, your fantasies, and your unspoken hungers. And speak nakedly and truly with someone of the nature of Neptune, who will help you clarify your own real needs.

When Uranus dances with Neptune, prepare for a quantum leap in consciousness. Like the rest of us, you’ve got a pattern of neuron pathways in your head which you imagine to be the world. It’s all based on assumptions and attitudes…but a few of them are completely wrong, and that disconcerting truth is doing its best to become evident to you now. Doubt everything, and go forward naked, alert, and alive.

As we said, the aspect involved in the event we just described is the trine, which refers to a 120 degree angle between the natal planet and the moving one. Trines are traditionally viewed as positive aspects, and in fact they generally do correlate with opportunities. Additionally, their existence implies that support is available to you, if you are willing to move to claim it. And therein lies the rub with the so-called “good” aspects. They’re not very dynamic. Just as pain is a more powerful motivator than contentment, the trick with trines lies in taking advantage of them before the wheel turns and their potential vanishes. With regard to the developments we described in the previous few paragraphs: a door is now open, a red carpet rolled out…but don’t count on everything remaining that way forever.

Tr. Pluto is Trine Venus
In effect: Aug 13, 2008 – Oct 5, 2008
Peak Date(s): sometime after the report period.

Pluto made an appearance earlier in this report, but now it has another message for you. Always this planet signals the existence of some emotional baggage to be released, some hurtful or humiliating piece of your personal history that needs to be remembered or reconsidered. The alternative is typically to re-enact some old wounding drama. Pluto currently is trine your natal Venus. The action peaks sometime after the report period..

Let’s begin deciphering this configuration by recognizing that the action driving these existential developments is showing up in the part of your life we call the Ninth House, which we encountered earlier in the report, for that is where Pluto is currently making its influence felt. This suggests that events and opportunities involving travel, education, and a general expanding of your horizons are now occurring, and that you could definitely use the breath of fresh air they’ll create if you go ahead and, in the spirit of Pluto, take the leap of faith for which they’re calling. But what’s being triggered inside you? What part of you will benefit most deeply from such exploration and expansion? The answer lies with Venus, which is being invited into development during this time of questing adventure.

Venus is the goddess of love, of peace, and of the arts. In each domain, balance is the ideal. Deep in your psyche, there is a place that seeks the comfort of balance and equilibrium, whether through shared fondness with another human being, an hour’s peace in the garden, or the rapture that sometimes arises as we immerse our hearts and minds in something beautiful. That inner circuit is your natal Venus. When it is stimulated, we often see experiences arising which prophesy a change in your relationships, in what gives you serenity, or in your aesthetic experiences.

Your Sixth House held our attention for a while earlier in these pages; now we see it making itself felt again. You have an inherent desire to be helpful and competent, and you express it best when you find ways to give people around you “gifts” of the nature of Venus, as we just described it. That part of your nature is currently in the spotlight, so offer yourself and your gifts to those who need them. You’ll grow wiser, and they’ll be happier.

The two factors, as we mentioned, are linked by a trine — traditionally seen as a “good” aspect, but more accurately seen as simply enhancing or supportive. Generally speaking, with trines there is an opportunity…but to seize it, you must supply the initiative.

Pr. Moon is Conjunct Pluto
In effect: Sep 1, 2008 – Oct 21, 2008
Peak Date(s): Sep 26, 2008

The progressed Moon figures in our thinking again. As you may recall, the Moon shows what you are feeling. It gives us insight into your mood, concerns, and general attitude…into “where your heart is,” in other words.

Our initial step is to realize that the motion and the developmental invitation are manifesting in the Sixth House. We’ve met that house before, and it figures in our analysis again, for that is the house through which the Moon is currently passing. Obligations and responsibilities are emphasized now in your life, and the mood they create is the same as that of the Moon, which we just described. But what are the core questions? What part of you is being called into the service of others? The answer lies with Pluto, which is being triggered during this season of giving, of supporting others, and of plain hard work.

How is the progressed Moon currently impacting on you? It is conjunct your natal Pluto: Sep 26, 2008. In thinking about this, remember that progressions are slow-motion events, and that this event simply peaks then; it will be affecting your mood for a period of two or three months on either side of that date.

When the Moon gets involved with Pluto, your mood (Moon) turns dark and probing (Pluto). A spirit of investigation is upon you, and a willingness to look deeply into matters that may be emotionally unsettling. Trust it — there are some unexplored corners in your psyche, unprocessed chapters in your personal history, that are “up” now. Something has been bleeding energy from you. Discover it, face it, and conquer it. You can, and you must.

The two factors, as we mentioned, are linked by a conjunction — the most powerful of the geometric aspects and one that suggests convergence, intensification, and often a new beginning.

Pr. Moon is Sextile Neptune
In effect: Oct 9, 2008 – Nov 28, 2008
Peak Date(s): Nov 3, 2008

Our initial step is to realize that the motion and the developmental invitation are manifesting in the Sixth House. We’ve met that house before, and it figures in our analysis again, for that is the house through which the Moon is currently passing. Obligations and responsibilities are emphasized now in your life, and the mood they create is the same as that of the Moon, which we just described. But what are the core questions? What part of you is being called into the service of others? The answer lies with Neptune, which is being triggered during this season of giving, of supporting others, and of plain hard work.

How is the progressed Moon currently impacting on you? It is sextile your natal Neptune: Nov 3, 2008. In thinking about this, remember that progressions are slow-motion events, and that this event simply peaks then; it will be affecting your mood for a period of two or three months on either side of that date.

When the Moon blurs into Neptune, a season of strong dreams is upon you. Creativity and inspiration are at a peak. Cultivate them by giving yourself quiet, meditative time. In narrowly practical terms, your efficiency is down now. You are probably experiencing some forgetfulness. Don’t worry, it will pass — but so will the positive potential of this period. Grab it before it goes! Rarely will your visionary imagination be so fertile. Dream, and make note of your dreams. Soon enough a time will come to act on them.

The aspect pervading the event we’ve just considered is, as we observed, a sextile. Technically, that refers to a geometric angle of 60 degrees between the natal planet and the moving one. Sextiles are traditionally viewed as “good” aspects. Certainly, they’re exciting. There is a mood of eagerness regarding the process we’re exploring here — and that’s glorious, provided you’re wary of the excessive impulsiveness that sextiles sometimes breed. In any case, the spinning wheel of circumstances can be counted on to provide some fortuitous, unexpected opportunities for you during this period. You’ll have to be quick to seize them, though. They’re real, but they’re short-lived.

Tr. Jupiter is Trine Pluto
In effect: Nov 17, 2008 – Nov 28, 2008
Peak Date(s): Nov 22, 2008

Jupiter figured earlier in this analysis. Now we meet it again. As you may recall, this is the planet of possibilities and the seizing of opportunities. Jupiter currently is trine your natal Pluto. The action peaks Nov 22, 2008.

Currently Jupiter is navigating your Tenth House. That’s the traditional “House of Career,” as we’ve already discovered, and it tells us that something of the nature of Jupiter is brewing in your profession or vocation, or in your social status. To respond optimally to the potentials and challenges built into this event, you’ll need to act according to the spirit of Jupiter, as we just described it. Being true to yourself is the challenge, as is generally the case in life. But your public life, with all its superficialities and practical pressures, is perhaps the hardest place in which to live up to that ideal. To succeed here, pay special attention to Pluto, which is being invited into development during this time of professional or public reorientation.

When Jupiter gets hooked up with Pluto, think big and claim a victory. One is available, if you move decisively and know exactly what you really want. And therein lies the rub. All of us experience humiliating losses, insults, and defeats in the course of life. As you adapt to living with them, an attitude of disempowerment or futility can creep in. Conquering that mind-set is the real aim here. The truth is that psychologically you need a triumph now — and synchronistically, the universe is ready to cooperate.

Tr. Jupiter is Sextile Neptune
In effect: Nov 25, 2008 – Dec 5, 2008
Peak Date(s): Nov 30, 2008

Jupiter figured earlier in this analysis. Now we meet it again. As you may recall, this is the planet of possibilities and the seizing of opportunities. Jupiter currently is sextile your natal Neptune. The action peaks Nov 30, 2008.

Tr. Saturn is Sextile Neptune
In effect: Dec 5, 2008 – Jan 26, 2009
Peak Date(s): sometime after the report period.

Saturn played a role earlier in this account. Now it emerges again, in a new way. To refresh your memory, Saturn is ultimately the planet of maturity. It always places a strong emphasis upon hard work, decisive choices, and persistence. Saturn currently is sextile your natal Neptune. The energies crest sometime after the report period..

Our initial step is to realize that the motion and the developmental invitation are manifesting in the Sixth House. We’ve met that house before, and it figures in our analysis again, for that is the house through which Saturn is currently passing. Obligations and responsibilities are emphasized now in your life, and the mood they create is the same as that of Saturn, which we just described. But what are the core questions? What part of you is being called into the service of others? The answer lies with Neptune, which is being triggered during this season of giving, of supporting others, and of plain hard work.

When hard-headed Saturn is stirred into the same pot with visionary Neptune, a season of brain-storming has arrived. A happy confluence now exists between creative imagination and shrewd practicality. Keeping them in balance is the art. You’ll have some great ideas — but not as great as they may at first seem. And you’ll also see some formidable obstacles — but not as insurmountable as you may fear. There is a middle course between optimism and pessimism. It’s called visionary realism. Practice it!

The two factors, as we mentioned, are linked by a sextile — traditionally seen as a “harmonious” or “mutually enhancing” aspect, often full of fast-paced events and emotional stimulation.

Tr. Jupiter is Trine Uranus
In effect: Dec 8, 2008 – Dec 18, 2008
Peak Date(s): Dec 13, 2008

Currently Jupiter is navigating familiar territory — your Eleventh House, which we discussed earlier. This, to refresh your memory, is the house of group dynamics, tying your personal affairs to larger developments involving organizations or coalitions — your “friends” in the widest sense. To make the right moves, you’ll need to know exactly what you want. Those desires, just to help you separate the wheat from all the chaff, are now in the spirit and direction of Jupiter, as we described it above. Getting what you want is the difficulty, as is generally the case in life. In the present environment, to succeed you’ll need to form strategic alliances, often with people of the nature of Jupiter. However, the core issue — the part of your life that’s at stake here — is represented by Uranus, which is being invited into development during this time of the joining of destinies.

There’s a wild card in everyone, a rebellious, independent, free-spirited force that hates neckties and phony courtesies and all the slick moves that keep corporations and families from splitting apart. Astrologers call it Uranus. Stripped to its essence, this part of your astrological psyche is concerned primarily with the process of individuation, which boils down to whittling away all the parts of yourself which have arisen almost accidentally as side effects of your social background. When stimulated by transits or progressions, Uranus triggers your rebellions. It asks you to shed something unauthentic, unreal, or limiting in your life. Often it brings lightning-quick developments and unexpected circumstances. Almost always, there is a confrontation between you and some figure of authority, past or present.

Your Sixth House held our attention for a while earlier in these pages; now we see it making itself felt again. You have an inherent desire to be helpful and competent, and you express it best when you find ways to give people around you “gifts” of the nature of Uranus, as we just described it. That part of your nature is currently in the spotlight, so offer yourself and your gifts to those who need them. You’ll grow wiser, and they’ll be happier.

When Jupiter interacts with Uranus, unanticipated opportunities arise. It’s as though the Cosmos manifests as Santa Claus; gifts are given to you, often completely “out of the blue.” Accept them. The psycho-spiritual theme here lies in loving yourself enough to embrace abundance, and many times the test comes and passes so quickly that success depends more upon reflexive self-confidence than upon any philosophical “position papers” about self-esteem.

When the Sun interacts with Jupiter, claim some applause for yourself. Healthy pride and dignity are at stake here, and they’re hard to sustain without receiving some appreciation. It may just come to you; but if not, then don’t be shy about asking for it…and one of the best ways to do that is to insist upon a victory, the more colorful the better. The good news is that under this kind of astrological configuration, such a victory is in fact quite available to you now.

How is the progressed Moon currently impacting on you? It is conjunct your natal Uranus: Jan 10, 2009. In thinking about this, remember that progressions are slow-motion events, and that this event simply peaks then; it will be affecting your mood for a period of two or three months on either side of that date.

The natal Uranus — that, as we have seen, represents your natural, uncensored individuality and your ability to claim and defend it.

Your Sixth House held our attention for a while earlier in these pages; now we see it making itself felt again.

That part of your nature is currently in the spotlight, so offer yourself and your gifts to those who need them. You’ll grow wiser, and they’ll be happier.

When the Moon is alloyed with Uranus, a mood (Moon) of rebellion, defiance, and independence (Uranus) fills the psyche. Deep in your heart, words are forming: “Why, for two cents I’d…” This is a delicate combination, easily an explosive one. What is happening is that something of your true individuality is making itself felt — but not necessarily understood. The impulses now flooding your mind will ultimately prove useful and valid, but it’s good to let them marinate for a few weeks or months before moving precipitously to Thule.

The two factors, as we mentioned, are linked by a conjunction — the most powerful of the geometric aspects and one that suggests convergence, intensification, and often a new beginning.

The natal Moon — that, as we have seen, represents your inner life, your emotions, moods, and attitudes.

Your Twelfth House demanded our attention above; now we see it playing a part again, once more suggesting that the quality of your inner life is what’s really at stake in the situation we’re considering. Under such a stimulus, many times the most appropriate step includes a strategic retreat…and a realization that something inside you is wise enough, spiritual enough, transcendent enough to sustain losses with impunity, even with generosity. To move positively in the present environment, renew your sense of the sacred by withdrawing and immersing yourself in the spirit of the Moon, a planet which is functioning something like an inner guide for you in this lifetime.

When the Moon interacts with Jupiter, the mood of life generally turns jovial and optimistic. There is an attitude of hopefulness and an alertness to possibility. It is a season of enhanced imagination, especially about your own potential future. In general, the best policy is to be bold in your dreaming, but cautious about signing on the dotted line. What you envision creatively now is probably quite sound, but it will want some editing in the cold light of dawn.

The two factors, as we mentioned, are linked by a sextile — traditionally seen as a “harmonious” or “mutually enhancing” aspect, often full of fast-paced events and emotional stimulation.

When the Sun interacts with the Moon, your “head” and your “heart” are experiencing some complications in their relationship. The key to a peaceful resolution of the issue lies in each being heard and each being willing to bend a little. Your lunar need for self-nurture must be balanced with your solar responsibilities and sense of destiny. Your hardheaded reasonableness must be open to the “trans-rational” side of life, where happiness really lies. Compromise and balance are the essence of such an event.

Pr. Ascendant is Sextile Saturn
In effect: Jan 9, 2009 – continuing
Peak Date(s): sometime after the report period.

“Style” — the word, even if you’re a very stylish individual, conveys something rather superficial and transitory. Yet none of us can avoid it: all of us, from the chic Parisian model to the most homespun field hippie, radiate style. It’s the inevitable outward expression of our inner processes. If we didn’t have style, no one would know we were here. Astrologically, your style is symbolized by the Ascendant, which is simply the sign that was rising in the east at the time you were born…or the sign that was “dawning” — which is a good way to say it, because the Ascendant represents how you “dawn” on people: the first impression you make, the way you initially, spontaneously present yourself. Like every other aspect of your being, your style must evolve for you to avoid becoming stagnant. And that process is represented by your progressed ascendant, which is currently making some delicate transitions.

Often the changes we make under this kind of astrological influence have to do with very simple things: the kinds of clothes we wear, our way of speaking, hairstyle, body posture, our “manners.” It’s important to get the changes right, even though they are basically superficial adjustments. Why? Picture this: you’re spending the evening with an old friend whom you’ve not seen for many years. Reflexively, unconsciously, you drift back into playing your old role. How do you feel? A little distant from yourself? Vaguely phony? The word “goofy” comes to mind. Now, imagine the evening stretched into weeks, months, years. That is the pitfall you are invited to avoid this year! The changes you’ve been creating in your deep psyche, all those profound realizations and insights you’ve been generating, must be translated into the surface of your character…into style. Authenticity is the aim. Succeed, and you’ll feel more at ease with yourself, more spontaneous, and more comfortable in the social situations that occupy so many of the hours of our lives.

Let’s first understand that the action is in the Second House, for that’s where the Ascendant is currently passing through your chart. And what does that signify? That the circumstances driving your development, at least in terms of this particular configuration, have to do with self-confidence…but not simply in the conventional psychological way. Here the self-confidence — or lack of it — is rooted in the quality and appropriateness of your resource-base. To use this time well, act in the spirit of the Ascendant, as we just described it, and claim what you need for your journey, whether this be money, connections, equipment, or skills. But what’s the deeper issue? What part of your own life now hinges on your gathering the right tools, funds, and skills? To answer that, we turn our attention to Saturn, which is being invited into development by this quickening of your dignity, self-reliance, and aplomb.

How is the progressed Ascendant currently touching you? It is sextile your natal Saturn: sometime after the report period.. In thinking about this, remember that progressions are slow-moving events and that the action simply peaks then; it will be in effect throughout the period of this report.

Getting kicked out of the nest, one way or another, is an elemental part of life. Faced with the stark, unyielding actualities of the “real world,” you either die then and there or get on with the cunning, calculating business of staying alive. To accomplish either of those ends, you activate the energies of your natal Saturn: your self-discipline, your patience, and your practicality…if you choose survival. And if you choose to give up, you withdraw into fear and probably get into a mood of despair and defeat. When Saturn is triggered by passing transits or progressions, it signals a time in which hard work is appropriate, necessary, and the best insurance for happiness. Often it suggests that the circumstances or even people who have been a significant part of your past must now be left behind, making way for a more mature expression of your identity.

Always, it’s advantageous for you to incorporate the force of Saturn positively in all parts of your life. But one area has always stood out in that regard — the First House, which is where Saturn lies in your natal chart. There, in the area of assertiveness and personal power, the right use of that energy is most critical. In many situations you must react, respond, and play the cards you’re dealt. But not in the First House. Here, you’re in the driver’s seat…and there are certain experiences you must claim for yourself, experiences of the nature of Saturn, even if the people about whom you care call you selfish for doing so.

The two factors, as we mentioned, are linked by a sextile — traditionally seen as a “harmonious” or “mutually enhancing” aspect, often full of fast-paced events and emotional stimulation.

Currently Jupiter is navigating familiar territory — your Eleventh House, which we discussed earlier. This, to refresh your memory, is the house of group dynamics, tying your personal affairs to larger developments involving organizations or coalitions — your “friends” in the widest sense. To make the right moves, you’ll need to know exactly what you want. Those desires, just to help you separate the wheat from all the chaff, are now in the spirit and direction of Jupiter, as we described it above. Getting what you want is the difficulty, as is generally the case in life. In the present environment, to succeed you’ll need to form strategic alliances, often with people of the nature of Jupiter. However, the core issue — the part of your life that’s at stake here — is represented by the Ascendant, which is being invited into development during this time of the joining of destinies.

However, the core issue — the part of your life that’s at stake here — is represented by Mars, which is being invited into development during this time of the joining of destinies.

Sheer animal vitality — that’s Mars. In your natal chart, it represents your boldness and your pluckiness: what gets your blood flowing. Or boiling. All passions are linked to Mars. Anger and your ability to defend your boundaries are part of the picture. So is your inner fire — your enthusiasm, your intensity, your sexual desire. When triggered by a passing transit or progression, Mars often signals a “go for it” situation developing in your life, but to make the best of it, you’ll need to be brave and assertive. Such transits or progressions can also warn you of upcoming battles, and in general it’s wiser to seize the initiative rather than surrender your power to the whimsies of circumstance.

Your Eighth House engaged us previously in the report. Now we see it provoked again, indicating that your attitude toward the circumstances we’re considering reflects a fundamental distortion. It has to do with your own psychological scar-tissue, and it biases your thinking in the direction of Mars, as we just described it. Follow your moods down into the labyrinths of your psyche; pay attention to your dreams, your fantasies, and your unspoken hungers. And speak nakedly and truly with someone of the nature of Mars, who will help you clarify your own real needs.

When Jupiter energies interact with Mars energies, opportunity coincides with the need for assertiveness. There is something here for you to claim; but to succeed, you’ll have to be brave. A “paper tiger” figures somehow in the situation: something that’s not nearly as scary as it may initially appear.

The two factors, as we mentioned, are linked by a sextile — traditionally seen as a “harmonious” or “mutually enhancing” aspect, often full of fast-paced events and emotional stimulation.

The natal Saturn — that, as we have seen, symbolizes your capacity for self-discipline and patience. Generally, it marks an area where you will be challenged to achieve excellence…or tempted to give up and sink into sorrow and self-pity.

Your First House came up earlier; now we see it stimulated again, once more suggesting that the deepest, most central factors in the situation we’re considering all hinge upon the choices you make and the stands you take. “Who are you?” — that’s the essential question. And, at least for now, a big chunk of the answer lies with Saturn, a planet whose needs, interests, and predilections always figure prominently in your smartest, most self-aware moves.

When Jupiter interacts with Saturn, you experience an odd confluence of providential fortune (Jupiter) and daunting impediments (Saturn). Essentially, something very good is available to you now, but to attain it you must undertake a herculean effort. More profoundly, that effort itself will crystallize a very specific transformation in you: it will grant you the dignity of your advancing maturity.

The two factors, as we mentioned, are linked by a sextile — traditionally seen as a “harmonious” or “mutually enhancing” aspect, often full of fast-paced events and emotional stimulation.

The natal Mercury — that, as we have seen, symbolizes your intelligence, your capacity to communicate, and your fundamental curiosity.

Your Seventh House occupied our thoughts earlier in these pages; now we see it triggered again, suggesting that at the center of the circumstances we’re considering there exists a fundamental inter-dependency: what you must do, you cannot do alone. A pair of ideas figure here: The first is that by emphasizing the spirit of Mercury in your closest relationships, you improve them. The second is that your natural partners are themselves people of the nature of Mercury, and that should help you recognize them.

Pr. Moon is Opposite Moon
In effect: Mar 14, 2009 – May 3, 2009
Peak Date(s): Apr 8, 2009

Our initial step is to realize that the motion and the developmental invitation are manifesting in the Sixth House. We’ve met that house before, and it figures in our analysis again, for that is the house through which the Moon is currently passing. Obligations and responsibilities are emphasized now in your life, and the mood they create is the same as that of the Moon, which we just described. But what are the core questions? What part of you is being called into the service of others? The answer lies with the Moon, which is being triggered during this season of giving, of supporting others, and of plain hard work.

How is the progressed Moon currently impacting on you? It is opposite your natal Moon: Apr 8, 2009. In thinking about this, remember that progressions are slow-motion events, and that this event simply peaks then; it will be affecting your mood for a period of two or three months on either side of that date.

When the Moon interacts with its own natal position, as is the case here, emotional energies are turned on. There is a general heightening of mood-swings, and often a heightening of dream activity. What’s happening is that the unconscious mind is attempting to adjust the trajectory of your outer life. It has a slightly different perspective on your current prospects than does your everyday awareness, and it is communicating that notion to you in the form of a mood.

Currently Jupiter is maneuvering through your Twelfth House. As we said earlier in the report, this is the final house of the cycle and often suggests endings and dissolutions. A meditative, accepting attitude is best now, letting go lightly of the things that are taken from you, knowing that despite appearances what is lost now has no place in the journey to come. What is to be released? A hint lies with Jupiter, as we just described it — that part of you has completed a major phase of its work and must now “graduate” to a new level. But we can go further. There is also a need for some release in connection with Neptune, which is being invited into development by these vital resolutions and these necessary deaths — some of which, by the way, may be forced upon you by circumstance if you’re overdue in appreciating their necessity.

Your Sixth House held our attention for a while earlier in these pages; now we see it making itself felt again. You have an inherent desire to be helpful and competent, and you express it best when you find ways to give people around you “gifts” of the nature of Jupiter, as we just described it. That part of your nature is currently in the spotlight, so offer yourself and your gifts to those who need them. You’ll grow wiser, and they’ll be happier.

When Jupiter interacts with its own natal position, as we see here, speculation and possibility arise. There is something available to you now which was not available before. It comes at least partly as a gift, or as what the world would call “blind luck.” In fact, a more subtle law is in operation here: you’ve crafted a position of opportunity for yourself over the years. Now is the time to harvest it.

When Venusian energies splice together with Jupiterian ones, opportunity (Jupiter) comes to you through other people (Venus). Sometimes what we might call “dumb luck” makes itself felt, but it doesn’t hurt to help it along by understanding the planetary “rules of the game.” Basically, they boil down to this: you’ve got to ask for what you want, you’ve got to know that you deserve it, and you’ve got to look that way…which is to say, there’s no room for being apologetic, ashamed, or defensive.

Pr. Moon is Square Midheaven
In effect: Jun 3, 2009 – Jul 22, 2009
Peak Date(s): Jun 28, 2009

Our initial step is to realize that the motion and the developmental invitation are manifesting in the Sixth House. We’ve met that house before, and it figures in our analysis again, for that is the house through which the Moon is currently passing. Obligations and responsibilities are emphasized now in your life, and the mood they create is the same as that of the Moon, which we just described. But what are the core questions? What part of you is being called into the service of others? The answer lies with the Midheaven, which is being triggered during this season of giving, of supporting others, and of plain hard work.

How is the progressed Moon currently impacting on you? It is square your natal Midheaven: Jun 28, 2009. In thinking about this, remember that progressions are slow-motion events, and that this event simply peaks then; it will be affecting your mood for a period of two or three months on either side of that date.

The natal Midheaven — that, as we have seen, represents the role you play in your community. It is connected primarily to two territories: your work and your reputation.

In what way do those notions connect with your present circumstances? Understand that the Midheaven occupies the Tenth House of your natal chart, an area which refers to issues of career, status, and your public role…concerns which are currently undergoing considerable developmental pressure and change. All positive steps in terms of profession or your place in the community hold one point in common: they move you further and further in the direction of the Midheaven, as we just described it. Any work that will prove enduringly satisfying invokes the considerable energies of the Midheaven in you; any work that does not embody them will turn out to be transitory or deadening.

We’ve met that house before, and it figures in our analysis again, for that is the house through which the Moon is currently passing. Obligations and responsibilities are emphasized now in your life, and the mood they create is the same as that of the Moon, which we just described. But what are the core questions? What part of you is being called into the service of others? The answer lies with the Ascendant, which is being triggered during this season of giving, of supporting others, and of plain hard work.

How is the progressed Moon currently impacting on you? It is opposite your natal Ascendant: sometime after the report period.. In thinking about this, remember that progressions are slow-motion events, and that this event simply peaks then; it will be affecting your mood for a period of two or three months on either side of that date.

The natal Ascendant — that, as we have seen, represents your style, how you go about translating your inner worlds into the two-dimensional framework of daily social interactions.

Your First House came up earlier; now we see it stimulated again, once more suggesting that the deepest, most central factors in the situation we’re considering all hinge upon the choices you make and the stands you take. “Who are you?” — that’s the essential question. And, at least for now, a big chunk of the answer lies with the Ascendant, a planet whose needs, interests, and predilections always figure prominently in your smartest, most self-aware moves.

The Details

In the mood for Mardi Gras? If you live in Chicago, it helps to know that New Orleans lies to the south. Head west or east and you’ll never arrive . . .

What we’ve done in the previous pages is to show you the direction to New Orleans. We’ve looked at the big astrological themes that are affecting you this year . . .

As a reminder, at the beginning of our analysis of each month’s events we’ll make reference to any major configurations covered previously which happen to be reaching peaks of intensity then — and please recall that some of them will have more than a single peak during the report period. There won’t be any more analysis; just an allusion to the events so you can go back and review the earlier material, and see the patterns of the month in the light of the year’s heavier transits and progressions.

Please remember that the fleeting, often forgettable influences we discuss in the following pages must always draw their real meaning from the far more monumental events we’ve already described. A “discussion with the boss,” for example, is going to take on particular significance during a month when your whole career is up for grabs!

These minor transits unfold quickly. It’s a rare week that doesn’t contain at least a few. A report that discussed them all in the kind of microscopic detail we’ve applied to the major events would be several inches thick. In order to cover the daily astrological kaleidoscope within the practical limitations of the space available, we’ve resorted to producing capsulized one-sentence nuggets that compress a lot of information into a few words. So, slow down, shift gears, and let them wash over you. Think of these images more as daily meditations than as the kind of full-blown explanations to which you’ve gotten accustomed in the previous sections of SKYLOG.

One brief reminder: remember that many astrological events have not one but several peaks of intensity, so you may find a given “Invitation” or “Means” coming up several times in the pages that follow.

Even minor astrological events commonly have an impact over several days. In the following month-by-month analysis, configurations are listed chronologically according to the days they “peak” — but don’t take that date narrowly. The most colorful events and profoundest realizations might easily occur a day or two later or earlier.

Aug 16, 2008 at 07:17 AM – Tr. Moon enters Twelfth House

The Moon in a month passes through all twelve houses of your chart. In so doing, it correlates with the passing whimsies of mood. One afternoon you’re bright and cheery, the following morning you’re blue…but energetic again after lunch. It doesn’t amount to much, and it’s not really very important in practical terms — with one exception: the passage of the Moon through the Twelfth House. During that time you are going through a kind of emotional moulting, ending one cycle and preparing to begin another. Your attentions and energies are turned inward. Accept that, handle it well, and the period — usually a couple of days — is quiet and contemplative. It may even be rather pleasant. But if you try to keep up your normal level of activity, you’ll find yourself confused, flat, and prone to dumb accidents. So when the Moon enters your Twelfth House, make sure that you have some unstructured time. Minimize distractions. Put off any significant new beginnings for a couple of days. And take a few unhurried breaths. This month, the transiting Moon crosses into your natal Twelfth House Aug 16, 2008 at 07:17 AM, and emerges Aug 19, 2008 at 03:09 PM, when a new emotional cycle begins.

Aug 24, 2008 – Tr. Mars opposes Ascendant

Mars, the God of War, is transiting through sensitive territories for you, suggesting some turbulent waters to be navigated. Always the trick with the red planet lies in realizing that the time has come to overcome a fear or a resistance in yourself, and to take what is legitimately yours. Your blood is up, and that’s not a bad thing, unless you “chicken out” and misdirect the Martian energy toward some inappropriate target.

Mars enters your Seventh House Aug 24, 2008. Traditionally the “House of Marriage,” the Seventh House is actually a reference to anyone and everyone with whom you are open to intimacy. Whenever this part of the chart is stimulated, it’s a signal that someone is coming into your life to adjust your attitude or your course, and that the adjustment is quite necessary and appropriate. Who is this person, and what is the message? We don’t know exactly, but here’s a clue: he, she, or it looks, feels, and sounds a lot like the Mars. One bottom line: the quality of your deepest human connections profoundly affects the quality of your life, and at least one of these human connections needs some attention during these days.

The mythological Mercury is the “Messenger of the Gods.” The same is true of the transiting Mercury, which speeds around your chart, prompting conversations, dialogs, and sermons, both outgoing and incoming. It triggers the arrival of letters, faxes, and phone calls, and provokes the weaving of new data into your viewpoint. When it arrives at a sensitive point, your task is to listen, to ask questions, and to share intelligence.

Venus: Goddess of Love, Goddess of Peace…in her fast transits around your chart, she offers you counsel and support, sometimes through friendship, sometimes through more romantic kinds of intimacy. Her arrival at a sensitive zone also suggests that a time has come to relax and to receive solace or comfort, or to recharge your inner batteries through the perception of beauty. People come warmly into your space; a chance to “let your hair down” arises; paintings, music, and Technicolor sunsets abound.

Sep 24, 2008 at 02:11 AM – Mercury turns Retrograde

Three, maybe four times in the course of a year, the planet Mercury spends three weeks or so going backwards in the sky, a period we call Mercury Retrograde. Practicality sometimes intervenes, but to the extent that you can arrange it, you are better off if you can avoid signing anything important during this period, buying anything mechanical (unless its failure would be of trivial consequence), initiating travel, or attempting significant communications by phone or mail. This, of course, is a lot to ask; and sticking to it too firmly starts to verge on Cosmic Paranoia. Still, there is a heightened tendency for objects, messages, and plans to go awry during this Retrograde time. Sometimes a little patience exercised now will make your life a lot easier in the long run. If steps simply must be taken, it doesn’t mean everything is doomed to failure…just keep duplicates, have backups, double-check everything, and be prepared for petty annoyances. The first appearance of a Retrograde Mercury during the period of this report occurs Sep 24, 2008 at 02:11 AM. Those conditions persist until Mercury again goes “Direct” sometime after the report period..

Sep 25, 2008 – Tr. Sun opposes Ascendant

The transiting Sun is like a huge, dumb battery. Whatever it touches, it electrifies — but never for very long or very deeply. That’s simply because it’s a fast-moving factor, never staying anywhere long enough to develop true depth or complexity of meaning. In a year, it circuits the chart once…which leaves it only a few days to spend in each of your chart’s many sensitive zones. Whatever it touches, however, is temporarily pushed into action. And sometimes, if more serious astro-psychological energies have been building or brewing in that area of your life, the Sun’s transit over that point might just be the trigger that sets big wheels turning. The critical point is that the Sun represents your ego, and when it collides with sensitive territories you need to act accordingly: not “egocentrically,” but with an awareness of your rights, your needs, and your desires.

Sun enters your Seventh House Sep 25, 2008. Traditionally the “House of Marriage,” the Seventh House is actually a reference to anyone and everyone with whom you are open to intimacy.

The transiting Sun again — this is the big searchlight that shines on each part of your chart in the course of a year, seeing if there’s anything there that’s just waiting for a little push…

The Sun arrives at a conjunction with your Midheaven Dec 22, 2008, and that always suggests a time of public visibility or career-related activity. The Midheaven is the top of the chart and corresponds to the most outward, visible parts of your life. It’s an active point, generally not very subtle. To make the most of it, pretend that “all the world’s a stage” and that the part you’re playing is that of the Sun, as we just described it. Don’t be shy. Ham it up a little, and make sure the people dozing in the back row don’t miss any nuances.

Jun 22, 2009 – Tr. Sun opposes Midheaven

The transiting Sun again — this is the big searchlight that shines on each part of your chart in the course of a year, seeing if there’s anything there that’s just waiting for a little push…

Sun aligns with your Fourth House cusp, the very bottom of your birthchart, Jun 22, 2009. As you might imagine, this point, being buried, represents inward, psychological experience, and often puts emphasis on the home or family. Claim renewal for yourself now, and hold quiet counsel with yourself. Don’t let the pressure of events drive you faster than is good for you; you don’t need rest so much now as active silence. Vision is rising up in you, if you let it. To attune yourself to this new enlivening, get away from society; be alone, or be with people in your own inner circle — your real “family” — and do it in the spirit of the Sun. That will put you in the proper attitude of receptivity.
