And MP Goes on Hiatus
The climax was last night
just after 8:06pm eastern time.
I posted an essay (on the Our Sky Face Book group) earlier this
morn about one responsibility I accepted yesterday and the stew of emotions it
got bubbling. This chart for the evening
shows the many other wonderful things that the universe was spinning out in our
corner of the galaxy yesterday. I won’t
tell about the lovely project coming to fruition in my family; I will just say
that Venus is now reaching fulfillment in her cycle with Jupiter. I will relate that as I was walking the
second son home last night, Venus was bright in the western sky and the kindergartner
was excited to share what he had learned about that wandering star; but that’s
just one small blossom among the many that I can see currently unfolding.
Mercury conjunct Saturn can
be seen at the bottom of the chart, but were only visible at dawn
yesterday. Here in Raleigh the skies were clear and they were a beautiful pair
on the eastern horizon before the sun came up.
Mercury is the most difficult planet to ‘catch’ visually because it is
always so close to the Sun.
Todd Clayton suggested I
check out Michael Lutin’s astro site. I
have not done that. I hope Todd will
post a link; professional astrologers are a big help for people who do not yet
know (it is always my dream that one day people will be as comfortable reading
charts of the ecliptic as they are reading clocks and calendars) how to read a
chart. One of the most valuable psychological
skills we neglect to develop by turning away from these old teachings is the
ability to outline the conflicting thoughts and motivations which compete in
our minds. Astrologers show the
resulting tensions as part of the natural unfolding of life.
Look who the Moon is
approaching- Mars! They only meet twice
in Virgo this year compared to 9 times in 2011/2012 when Mars was retro in the 6th
sign of ripening to perfection. Our
upcoming Martial entrenchment from Dec 8, 2013- July 26, 2014 will occur in the sign Libra. Prolonged challenges to our Venusian sense of
beauty and fairness are on the way; we will be following Venus closely since it
is the planet that rules Libra.
I leave you all with
that. An old family friend agreed to let
me interpret his chart for practice, and for the last two months I have been
searching for a block of time to focus on recording the reading. Until I finish with that project I will not
be posting. Till then – mazel tov
