Weekly Weather September 26, 2011

Our week ahead has Sun and Mercury traveling together in early Libra. They are in agreement as Mercury joins the Sun on Wednesday. When the Sun and Mercury join up, we find it very easy to make up our minds as the ego function of the Sun is aligned with the ideas and communication principles of Mercury. We also donft listen well to discordant ideas ~ but perhaps that is okay. We are clear on OUR position. We know what WE want. We are able to see how the stories of our lives all links together in a cohesive whole.

Mercury and the Sun roll through the early part of the cardinal t-square, squaring Pluto and opposing Uranus helping us clarify the triangles and power struggles in our lives as well as to become clear about what we donet want to do, be or take any more. Little hot Mercury is moving fast right now so hefs in the mood to make decisions and get on with it. Mercury forms a physically adjusting aspect to Chiron offering us wisdom about how the person or situations before us awaken our wounded parts. Part of life is knowing that the reflection from the external world can cause us to see things clearly. This is that kind of week. You are going to see how the people in your life are there because they reflect for you what you need to get clear on.

We continue watching Saturn push forward across the middle part of Libra. Traveling through the Via Combusta, Saturn is feeling lit up, on fire, as he moves rapidly through this part of the heavens. The Via Combusta translates to the Road of Fire. It is a difficult patch of the heavens, opposite the exaltation positions of the Sun and Moon, and thus in the fall of the life giving lights. Things end here. Or they are permanently changed forever. There are a number of fixed stars scattered along the Road of Fire which make permanent changes in our lives. As Saturn rolls through the Via Combusta, we will each be asked to make choices around and about the structure of our lives and the relationships we have.

Saturn will travel between 17 Libra and 22 Libra between now and November 4. He will not return to this part of the sky or your chart for 29 years. The choices you make between now and November 4 will be permanent, final and keepers. So choose carefully. Be aware of what you are signing up for or turning away from. No more waffling. The moment of decision making has arrived. He gave you since last January to get clear on the matter. And, truth be told, youfve been working on this issue since 1981 and 1952 if you are older. Time to strike out with a new, revised and improved vision of it for the next 29 years! Take all that work youfve done and set the focus clearly.

Our week also finds Venus catching up with Saturn and starting a new cycle around what we value in our relationships. (Seems to be a theme here eh?) Venus and Saturn meet up once a year to start a new cycle of relationships and connection. Venus is moving pretty fast too. Venus meets up with Juno the asteroid of committed, traditional relationships this weekend starting a new cycle of commitment, partnership and connection. So be clear what you want and state it ~ all week long!

Mars in Leo stimulates degrees 4 to 7 and has a bit of stress with Pluto early in the week which can show as extreme irritation or rage. The energy will flare up a bit and then subside. Notice what is irritating you. Youfll be working on a solution to it for nine months once Mars gets into Virgo in November.

Hades stations and goes retrograde on Sunday so expect difficult or unseen things to surface from the underworld as part of the weekfs energy. The secrets emerge. Always good to know the secrets ~ it helps make decisions clearer.

VOID MOONS

3:47 pm EDT September 25 Sunday to 0:51 am EDT September Tuesday 27

DAY LONG VOID MOON on Monday September 26.

@

Moon day, Monday September 26 Moon is in Virgo and formed a grand trine in Earth with Jupiter and Pluto yesterday which you can continue to work with on this day long void moon. Yep, all day long, the moon is void so work on projects in process rather than starting new ones. Venus is parallel to Mars today so there is an opportunity to connect deeply and profoundly. Mercury is square to Hades so dark or secret information can surface from the underworld or hidden places. Watch the information.. You donft have to take Action on it ~ you do need to integrate it into your decision making. Mercury is also inconjunct or quincunx to Chiron so the information received can wound you or feel a bit overwhelming. Remember Mercury wants you to know the truth (and he always knows where the bodies are buried, the secrets are hidden and the stuff you donet know about that you NEED to know) so pay attention to the information that surfaces today. There is a desire to firm up or focus your vision on the kinds of groups that you want to create in your life too. Saturn is in the Aquarian section of Libra asking and offering each of us the opportunity to revise our hopes and dreams as well as the groups we are part of. It will feel like you are able to do that in a good working manner this week, starting today.
