From September 1st to the 8th confidence, caution, and correction are the keystones of this week.
There is a feeling that we can handle anything that comes to us, but our tendency is to choose limited terrain to roam in. It is like being king of the jungle, but the jungle is really just a medium-size city park. We have an intuition that bigger things are at play, and we are wise to prepare for unprovoked change.
1st – Sunday – Mars Contra-parallel Pluto, Uranus turns Retrograde, Pluto Retrogrades back into Capricorn –
Pent up energy and fancy new options can tempt us to deviate. However, the shortest distance between two points is still a straight line. Self-satisfaction for a job well done is more important than public recognition.
2nd – Monday – The New Moon occurs on the 2nd at 9:55 PM EDT on the 11th degree of Virgo –
A vision of a new world is dawning, but it may seem so far away. This is one of those moments where our insights are best kept to ourselves. We can see things others miss; but also, we may not have access to the whole picture.
3rd – Tuesday – Mars Square Neptune, Sun Contra-parallel Saturn, Venus Parallel Neptune –
Our fender may scrape the curb, but this is not a tragedy. A warning signal can help us avoid real trouble later if we heed it. There is a higher way through the relationship minefield. It is good to recognize it, even if we can’t tread this path right now.
4th – Wednesday – Mars Quincunx Pluto, Mars enters Cancer –
Where does our effort matter most? Taking care of our basic needs is a good place to start. But more than our own needs is the absence of true spirit and inspiration in our community. It may look like everyone is in motion but going nowhere. We may feel like we are on the outside looking in. We need to help where we can, and just be patient.
5th – Thursday – Any step to beautify our home, community, or pattern of relationships puts us on track. To help create order and symmetry is to become part of the wave of excitement moving through the world. Unbeknownst to us, others can be helped tremendously by our actions.
6th – Friday – Sun Sesquiquadrate Pluto –
It is not enough to be willing to work hard. We must know where our energy really matters. There is an unwritten timeline that is speeding up everything and everyone. A simple rule now, if we can complete a task in solo, we should keep at it. If our task at hand requires others, we should probably wait.
7th – Saturday – Mercury Square Uranus –
Although our ideas, attitudes, and visions may seem fixed; there is a new perspective coming down the pipeline. Fear of change, or relinquishing our position out of boredom, works to our disadvantage. When we make new plans, but sit loose in the saddle, we are on the road to success.
8th – Sunday – Sun Opposite Saturn, Mercury Quincunx Neptune, Venus Sesquiquadrate Uranus –
If it’s raining, but we were planning to stay home and read a book, we can be quite content. Regardless of our situation, we may have some confusion about priorities. To put our toe in the water makes more sense than jumping off the high dive.
